Island Community Church Pageant
Despite the extremely disagreeable
weather, a good sized crowd were pre-
sent at Burton high school last Sun
day evening to witness the beautiful
Christmas pageant produced by the
Sunday School, of which DR.. Grandy
is superintendent.
Old carols told the Christmas story
most effectively and the three princi-
pal parts were taken by Peggy Bently.
Margaret Rees and Billy Hatch.
The beautifully lighted tree in the
hall further added to the enjoyment of
everyone present, and Santa and his
pack furnished real treat.
Much credit is due DR.. Grandy, Mrs.
w. @. Smith and Mrs. Poage Of the ed
ucational committee Of the Sunday
School for the beauty and smothness
of the pageant: to DR.. and Mrs. Young
and Mr.. and Mrs. Dean Trimble for
the lovely tree; to Fred Hiersch for his
inspiring rendition of Gounods ave
Maria; and to the choir for the eff
fective carols.
The gifts brought to the Christ Child
were given to two needy local families
in exemplification of the text, 1T is
more blessed to give than to receive"

HOW About This $4,000?

Of course you can't state garage like you
can a private business, says Omer s. ManloVe mead
of the state highway departments motor transport
division, with an airy wave of the hand. There's
politics and those things to be considered
And so, with another airy wave Of the hand or
two s750OOO or so of the state taxpayers money goes
down the drain in maintenance and repair OF the
highway DEPARTMENTS automotve equipment" for one
wear. All in the sacred name Of politics. more de-
serving patriots can fatten at the public trough.
Disclosures indicating scandaIous waste, inef-
fciency and msmanagement in the motor transport
division made in The Times in the last two days
demand thorough investigation by Governor Leslie
and his aids. matter of S750000 Stuffed of In
a year is not matter than can be dismissed with
little snappy pershage 1t calls for painstaking in
vestigaton and it calls for cure.
When upkeep Of a Ford car for year costs more
than 81 OoO it is evident to the most dense observer
that something smells in the department And when
it is shown that the average maintenance and repair
cost for the approximately 300 Ford cars in the de-
partment for one year was about 1925, the smell
grows even louder Someone is prohting, and it is
not humble John Taxpayer.
Whether Omer S. Manlove or someone else directs
the motor transport division OF no concern to this
newspaper as long the department so is conducted
that the taxpayers money will not be tossed away
Whoever directs that department, however, must
be made to understand that it be like private
business with the same careful attention to leaks
and means Of saving that would be employed IN his
private business He must be made to understand
that public funds not to be poured out with lavish
disregard of economy merely to insure easy lucrative
employment for the political allies and henchmen OF
the division chief or his superiors.
It is UT to Leslie and his aids to see that this is
done.
Whether the figures are carried to the Governor
bv the highway director, division chief or dis
gruntled employe" is of no consequence.
That they will reach him is a certainty
"It was Governor Leslie who, within few minutes
of taking his oath of Office last January, declared in
reference to newspapers which criticised his candi-
dacy:
REALIZE AND APPRECIATE THE GREAT IN
FLUENCE AND THE INDISPENSABLE NECESSITY
TO SOCIETY OF THESE AGENCIES AND HERE
AND NOW AS YOUR GOVERNOR SOLICIT THEIR
SUPPORT. EVEN THROUGH CONSTRUCTIVE
CRITICISM, IN OUR EFFORTS TO RE-ESTABLISH
THE FAIR NAME OF INDIANA IN OUR ATTEMPT
TO RAISE TO THE HIGHEST POSSIBLE LEVEL
THE STANDARD OF GOVERNMENTAL Eff
CHENEY IN EVERY DEPARTMENT OF STATE
The motor transport division of the highway de-
partnent is such department
The Governor must not forget his promise
