solution of the question of protecting
the city against further damage suits.
His suggestion was favorably receiv-

flat salary for an inspector and that
the city make a charge for building
permits. He also suggested that the
inspector could take charge of sew

Wednesday morning from Fort
Thomas, KY, where he went Mon
day TO visit his son, Ralph. formerly
Of the Wooden Co. office force, who
was one Of the rs recruits to leave
here week ago last Thursday. Early
in the week Ralph telegraphed his
father that a rumor was current
about the camp that the Mishawaka
boys would leave Fort Thomas
Tuesday. but upon Mr.. Hutchinson's
arrival there no definite orders had
been received regarding the Misha-
waka soldiers departure, except
those who enlisted in the coast ar
tillery who, it was said, would be
sent away Friday An officer at tho
camp stated that the remaining
Mishawaka boys might not get away
from Fort Thomas for four or five
weeks.
Many Of the Mishawaka lads have
received their uniforms and equip
ment, and the most of the recruits
are quartered in tents, but are be-
ing placed in barracks as rapidly az
the buildings can be constructed.
Mr.. Hutchinson says the local boys
are happy and contented and thor
oughly enjoying the novelty of theiI
experience.
