wick. The future of our town de.
ponds upon our city government
and when we are able to secure
!, men Of the caliber of these it would
be nothing short Of civic tragedy
not to elect them.
Where could one find finer,
cleaner lot of men for office?
@Brick" Oliver, who owns and
operates his own business, Bricks
Superservice Station, is interested
in the welfare of boys. He is adj
wiser to the Masonic group Of De
Molay boys. He is a square, hon
est, dependable fellow whom the
people, who know him we'll, trust
implicitly. "Brick" is running for
the council from the first ward
for the four-year term.
Frank Green, who has made his
own way here and built up his
greenhouse business, has filed for
the council for the four-year term
from the second ward. He is trust
worthy and clean morally.
George Hartje, running for
the four-year term from the third
ward, is an old reliable councilman,
whose opinion carries great weight
in council matters.
Emil Behrman is young, pro-
gressive business man who is fill
ing out an unexpired term on the
council at present. He has shown
and keen Judgment in
work and the budget and in the aft
fairs of the city. He is the COM
mander of the local American Le-
gion post. He has filed for the
two-year term from the third ward.
For councilman-at-large, w. L.
member of the CONNER
cial club who has always backed
any movement for city betterlment,
has filed. Mr.. Marsh, who is a
clean thinking, moral man, and a |
fine citizen, has built up cloth
ing business here entirely through
his own efforts.
With II. B. Terril and w. C. Null
drow, who are hold-overs from
the old council and experienced
men, strong council would be
formed.
It is always desirable to inject
young blood into city affairs, and
Warde Johnson, who is running
for city treasurer is well qualified
because of his training in the bank
or this work.
We have c. A. Crawford, a i
mayor who sees that his commit
tees function and who does great
deal of civic work himself. He is
OF a "showy" fellow but he accom-
plishes things. He has demon
strated remarkable ability during
his administration and is excep-
tionally qualified for the work Of
mayor. He merits second term.

OTTAWA, Aug. 3. - Buffalo
ranching has been a decided sue
cess, as carried on by the Domin-
ION government. This years quota
of American bison, 1857 animals,
have just been transferred from the
government ranch at Wainwright,
Alberta, to Wood Buffalo Park, near
Fl. Smith, Northwest Territories.
This reduces the Wainwright herd
to about 5000 head and brings the
total shipments into the park to
over $500.
In addition there is a herd of
some 1900 wood buffalo" who were
native to the park, so that taken al
together the bison now under Do
minion protection in the two places
number we'll over 10000.
The Wainwright herd traces back
to four calves, survivors of the
wholesale slaughter Of the vast bison
herds that roamed the western
plains during pioneer days. Michael
Pablo, a half-breed American In
dian in Montana, adopted the calves
and with them as a nucleus built up
a herd of some TOO animals. In
1907 he sold them to the Canadian
government and they were trans
ferred to the fenced range at Vain

was not certain of success.
Two other obstacles were encoun-
tered-Ohio laws would not permit
a city to appropriate money for such
a purpose nor would they permit a
city to condemn land for an airport
But Hopkins, believing there were
great possibilities in the project,
fought along. And before he had
spent much time on the question
he had interested legislators.
The result was that the city coun-
Gil in January, 1925, appropriated
81, 125, 900 to purchase and improve
tract of LOO acres, just nine and
one-half miles west of the heart of
Cleveland. The site was selected on
the recommendation of Major
General Mason M. Patrick, chief of
the United States Army air service,
and Capt. E. v. Rickenbacker,
World War ace.
With the preliminaries out of the
way, the Postofhce Department sent
Maj. John Berry, its field engineer,
to Cleveland to assist in CONDITION
ing the field. His work was such
that he was retained as superin-
tendent of the field.
The field is valued. at S1,5O0,OO0.

in airplanes, hangers and equipment
totals $1,000, 000-and a number of
individuals and firms are awaiting
admission.
