Officers Of the Atlantic lleet. who fol

WASHINGTON. June S0.-President
Harding today signed the Army appro-
priation bill, decreasing the size Of the
American Army from 10000 to 10000
men and in so doing he transmitted
brief message to both houses of Con-
gress, expressing the embarrassment
which the action causes the Administra-
ton at this time
The President pointed out that it is
doubtful if the reduction can be effected
without the summary dismissal of thou
sands Of men from the Army who have
a right to expect from the hands Of the
Government the same moral obligation
which the Government requires OF them
when they enlist for service

VOTER PRESENTS
PLEA SIGNED BY 40.


PLEA SIGNED BY 40.
Shortly before noon, William Heath. q
voter and a taxpayer of Pike township,
appeared before the two members of the
board and presented a petition which was
signed by more than forty voters of the
township, asking that the township boun-
dary lines be restored
Mr.. Hendrickson and Mr.. Fesler re-
tired secretly to the latters office and
drew up the resolution.
Fesler, Hendrickson and the two COM
missioners who were present retired to q
back room and closed the door.
After some little time the door was
opened and Mr.. Hendrickson left the
room. Then Commissioner George took
the air, but refused to state what was
done.
Commissioner Shank referred the Times
reporter to Mr.. Fesler and Mr.. Fesler
become a Sphinx.
"Mr. Shank have you signed this peH.
tion?' the reporter asked.
There was silence.
Yes" confessed Shank. ''Mr. George
and I signed it, but we want Mr.. Tute-
wiler to sign it this afternoon
Continuing he said, I'VE didn't rescind
our original order abolishing Pike. There
was some legal question as to our power
to do that We merely passed resolu-
tion reducing Wayne Township to its
original boundry lines and naming what
was once Pike as Pike Township again.
The boundry lines are just the same as
they were before the meeting of the
county school board"
The county commissioners practically
were forced to restore Pike Township be-
cause Of threatened law suits and the
determination of County Assessor James
Z. Douglas to recognize Marion Hardin
as the assessor of Pike township at
meeting Of the board of review and the
township assessors this afternoon.
Mr.. Douglas in recognizing Mr.. Hardin
as the assessor of Pike township virtually
refused to take official notice Of the sud-

Clever Fishing Frog.

There is a hideous reptile, known
as the fishing frog. which angles for
It's game as expertly and with as great
success as the most adroit fly fisher.
He is clumsy, awkward swimmer, but
nature has compensated him for HE
unwieldiness by furnishing him with
an equivalent for rod and line, with
bait always ready for use. Two elon.
gated tenracles spring from his nose,
which taper away like actual fishing
rods. To the end of them is attached,
by slender filament. which serves the
purpose OF line, bait in the form
of shiny bit OF membrane. The
hooks are set In the mouth Of the fish,
erman below. and in order to induce
the fish to venture within reach Of
them, the angler stirs up the mud at
the bottom with his fms and tail. This
attracts the fish and conceals him
from their observation. He then plies
his rod; the glittering bait CLOVIS in
the water like a living insect. The
dazed fish are taken in great numbers,
perfectly circumvented by the trick Of
the crafty angler.
