SETTLED FOR $4,000

Charles Hobart received a tele-
gram from F. W. Woods dated at
Camden, N. j., Monday afternoon,
conveying the information that he
and F. 0. Phillips, attorneys for Miss
Vera Hobart, had effected a settle
ment in her case against the railroad
Of. New Jersey for $1,000. This case
crew out OF the well-lnown Sehlabaeh
accident Of a year and half ago,
when Mrs. Ross Schlabach and child
were instantly killed by a special
train running into the automobile
in which they were riding. Miss Hob
art was in the auto at the time, seated
with Mr.. Schlabach on the front seat.
She was badly bruised and has never
fully recovered from the shock sus-
tanned. In settling with Miss Hobart
for $4,000, the company also made a
settlement with Mr.. Schlabach for
$1,000. While both parties sued for
larger amounts, it was the judgment
of the attorneys that it were better
to settle for lesser amount out of
court.

Double Theft
at Dance Hall

A double theft took place in the
cloak room of the I. 0. 0. F. hall last
Friday night while dance was in
progress on the main floor. Mrs. Zoe
Boult had her purse taken again and
Miss Florence Hewes lost set of furs
valued at SIS. No clue to the ident-
ity of the thieves has been discovered.
A wild rumor gained currency day
or so after the robbery, but it was ex-
ploded so thoroughly and so quickly
that it has not been heard of since.
Mrs. Boult was relieved of her purse
while en-route to Cleveland on an in
ter-urban car a few weeks ago. She
regained it, however, and the youth
who took it served out sentence.
Her financial loss this time was about
$40. 1t seems improbable that any
one living in Medina would have COM
mitted the theft and entertained any
hope. of remaining here with their
pelf, particularly the furs.

Flour on Way
to Belgium

Two hundred and seventy-fve bar
rels of flour, grown and ground in Me-
dina county, was loaded onto a car
here last Saturday and left the fore
part of the week for Philadelphia,
from which port it will start on it's
way across the sea about Christmas
day to the war sufferers of Belgium.
The carload of flour is Medina coun-
TVS expression of Christian brother
hood. It cost $14O0, which amount
was contributed by men, women and
children from all over the county. In
cidentally it may be stated, too, that
Medina county bears the distinction
of being the first and only county in
Ohio to initiate g foreign relief move
ment. The promoters of this benev-
olent idea, no less than those who so
generously contributed toward its
cons,immation, are to be congratu-
lated.

ESCAPED UNINJURED

An auto accident occurred On North
Court street Monday morning which,
though only breaking the machine,
might easily have resulted in serious
injury to the occupants. Mr.. and
Mrs. Tom Hallock and two children
Of Lakewood. They had spent Sunday
with Mr.. and Mrs. M. D. Kimmell and
we're on their way home when the
accident occurred. In attempting to
turn out for south bound car on
the electric line, and when in front Of
the residence of O. 0. Van Deusen,
the auto skidded and shot directly
down a rather precipitous depression
on the east side Of the street The
wind shield was smashed, the stear-
ing rod bent and the machine other
wise damaged, and although Mrs. Hal
lock and children were transferred
from the back seat to the front by
the impact, they escaped uninjured.

CrestOn Has
$4,000 Fire

Fire believed to be of incendiary
origin Sunday night destroyed the
basket factory Of the Pape-Blair Co.,
in Creston causing a loss of $4,000.
The building was burned to the
ground.
The fire broke out shortly before
9 o'clock in the evening. When
firemen arrived the blaze was be-
yond control. Very little insurance
was carried on the building and con-
tents which was almost total loss.
Belief that the factory was set on
fire is supported by the report that
the building was burning in three
different places when the fire was dis
covered. The plant has been shut
down for the last two weeks and for
two days there had been no fire in the
building.
The principal loss was upon a stock
of baskets valued at $4,000. A $3,-
900 automobile truck was also burned.
The basket factory employs about Is
hands, who are thrown out of work
as result of the fire.

Death Claims a
/. Della Alden

q
A long and blameless life was ended
Saturday night, December Is, at 9:15
o'clock, when the spirit of Miss Della
Alden winged its flight at her old
home, 1O8 Public Square. Miss Alden
had been in usual good health until
the Tuesday preceding her death,
when she suffered stroke of paral-
y"is. She never regained conscious
ness.
No better known woman resided in
Medina. For many years she was a
successful educator in Medina and a
large number of men and women are
now living here whose early instruc-
tion was directed by the noble woman
who is gone.
The deceased was born in Guilford
township January 26, 1888, and lacked
only a month of having rounded out
78 years. She was one Of five children
born to William H. and Sarah Alden.
Only two Of that family are now liv-
ing-Sidney and Susan, the latter hav-
ing been lifelong companion of her
sister Della. The only other relative
living is nephew, Charles Selkirk.
Della Alden was staunch Christ
ian lady; highly intelligent, cultured
and was respected by all who knew
her. She will be missed not only by
the remaining members Of the family,
but by host of friends.
Funeral services were held Tues
day at 10 o'clock, conducted by Rev.
VIM. v. Edwards of st. Paul's Episco-
pal church. Interment will be made
in Spring Grove cemetery.

c. & S. W. MAY LIGHT LODI

The Southwestern company may
furnish light and power to Lodi res
licences and business places for which
a contract will be signed by the Lodi
council soon.
The village contract with G. L. V.
Williams ran out last July and re-
Gently the village agreed to renew
his contract for five years from last
July. AS yet the village and Williams
have not signed the agreement.
A representative of the Southwest
ern was in Lodi recently and it is
reported that the company secured an
option on the plant operated by Will
Jams. If the Southwestern exercises
the right of its option, it may soon be
furnishing electric light and power in

Fa : 1 Tome
Lectures at Leroy

The subject of Home Economics is
commanding the attention of larg-
er number Of people in Ohio this year
than ever before. It is being taught
for the first timein many rural schools
and is to form very important part
of the Extension School to be held at
Leroy during the week beginning on
Dec. % to Jan. 1. Many subjects of
particular. interest to the making of
comfortable and happy homes will be
treated by persons who are making
the study Of such subjects their life's
work. The housewives and would-be
housewives in this vicinity are for
tunate in having an opportunity to
hear these subjects presented by the
ladies from the College of Agricul-
ture who have been secured for this
purpose. There will be contil. uous
program each day from 9 o'clo, k in
the morning until 8 o'clock in the af-
ternoon. Among the subjects that
will be treated in the Home Makers
Course will be the selection and prep
aration of various kinds and cuts of
meats; the place that meat should fill
in our home table; the care and var
ious uses Of eggs; the selection of
materials and their preparation for
the baking Of bread; the use of vege-
tables and salads; the planning of
meals for the different seasons; home
decoration; household management;
and food standards. It is, therefore,
evident that some attention is being
paid to the feeding of our families.
It is certainly gratifying to many of
us that the quality, the variety and
the preparation Of our own food is
to receive equal consideration as the
feeding of calves and pigs.
Another feature Of the Home Max
ers' Course of the Extension School
is the fact that instruction is to be
given on how to make the home more
beautiful. It may be common fault
among us that we pay too little at
tention to making our home and its
surroundings attractive.

Together For
Sixty Years

On February %, Mr.. and Mrs. Mel
son Harris of Lodi, will have been
married sixty years. All of their mar
ried life has been spent in the same
house, known as the Harris home
stead, fronting on Central park, in the
central part of the village.
Nelson Harris, son Of Mr. and Mrs.
Albert Harris, was united in marriage
to Miss Fannie Jennie, at Litchfeld,
o., February %, 1856. They came
Immediately to Lodi.
To them were born four children,
two daughters and two sons, one Of
the daughters now living in Akron and
the other three children living with
or near their parents in Lodi.
Mr.. and Mrs. Harris have always
been considered as being among the
highly esteemed citizens of the vii
lage, and are one of the wealthiest
families. They are enjoying fairly
good health and take much pleasure
in meeting their numerous friends.
Since going to Lodi sixty years ago
they have seen and participated in
many developments in the community,
and have noted the development from
a small trading point to the fine mo-
dern village that it now is. They
have seen the passage Of the old
stagecoach and the coming of the
steam and trolley lines; they have
gone from days of burning the tallow
dip in their home to the use of elec-
tricity and natural gas for lighting;
from the use of the old-fashioned one
horse vehicle to the modern auto. Not
only have they seen these develop
ments, but they have also used and
enjoyed all the comforts that are OBJ
tainable.
Mr.. Harris was the only child in
of nine children. four of whom are
the family, and Mrs. Harris was one
living.
In looking up the Harris history, it
is noticed the popularity or rather CO.
incident, which the number eleven
plays.
The difference in the ages Of. Judge
and Mrs. Joseph Harris, grandparents
of Nelosn Harris, was eleven years
and they died just eleven years apart

How Indirect
Taxes Are Levied

The average Ohio citizen possesses
a very vague and often erroneous
idea of how indirect taxes are levied,
which means the amount of taxes paid
in excise or corporation taxes. No
Ohio taxpayer pays into his county
treasury any portion Of this indirect
tax. These semi-annual payments in
to county treasures are all direct
taxes. Such taxes are the combined
results of the levies made by the state,
county, township and village or city.
These divisions make annual levies to
meet their direct needs and the total
for all is the annual tax rate on each
dollar of taxable property. After the
treasurer makes his collections the
money is distributed according to
their respective levies to thestate,
village, township and schools.
Every taxpayer ought to inform
himself as to the uses made of the
money he pays into his county treas
ury as taxes. For instance, if you pay
one dollar in taxes you have a right
to know what was done with your
dollar, and it is your own fault if you
do not. Striking an average of all
direct taxation in 1914, the following
table shows how each dollar paid in
taxes is expended this year:
For common school purposes 5000
For city and village purposes .28
For county purposes .21
For township purposes .06
For special and local purposes .08
For state, roads, etc. .07
