Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1941-06-19


excursion spoken as pleasure
exertion"- there is one eX-
cursion we would like to be on
and that is the trip to be taken
the first part of July by Charles
Blind of the Holophane COM
pany, and Ivan Blair, Charles
Swigley, and Jack Bealer of the
A. H. Kelsey company. The boys
plan to penetrate the wilds of
northern Ontario, Canada, away
up in the Lake Lady Evelyn ter
ritory, on a two weeks fishing
jaunt. Readers who remember
"Iron Jaw" Counters pilgrimage
last year, will know the afore-
mentioned men will be getting
back to nature and "away from
it all" in a truly fishermen's
paradise.
Cliff Mossholder who has been
associated with the A. P. Hess
company, has affiliated himself
with the Firestone Auto Supply
and Service store on the corner
of Hudson and Locust. Cliff says
he decided to make the change
to become more fully acquainted
with that governor of all sue
cessful individuals-the budget.
He is in charge of the budget
department of the company,
and says he likes his new boss,
w. w. Wells, who recently came
to Newark from Cleveland, Ohio.
Welcome Mr.. Wells.
We are indebted to Floyd R.
Blume for a copy of his publica-
tion, The Parkersburg (Pa.)
Post which is a newsy little tab
loid. Friends of Mr.. Blume will
remember that he at one time
operated collection agency in
the Lansing building in Newark.
Good luck Floyd.
A. D. (Art) Lockwood and L.
A. (Bud) Stare, Jr., city coun-
cilmen, both were complaining
about fish ponds at 22nd and
32nd streets during council meet
ing Monday night. They were
promised that the situation would
be taken care of-but we have
an idea that Bud Stare at least,
would rather have them stocked
with fish, rather than eliminat-
ed.
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry McClos-
key are spending the warm
months at their country home
near Rocky Fork. Mrs. McClos-
key recently purchased hun
dred Rhode Island Red chickens,
and in her interest to adopt the
latest methods used in poultry
production, installed electric
lights in the coop. With other
activities limited because of the
rain the past few days she step
ped into the coop recently and
sat down to commune with her
feathefed friends. Others going
to look for her-found her asleep
in the coop on two different oc-
casions. Now it is question
who is being fooled by the lights
Mrs. McCloskey or the chick
ems.
Was sitting in Supt. Edwards
office during school board meet
ing Tuesday night and became
interested in the antics of "Bud"
Stare, George Schaub, Cyril
Rambo and a few other boys
engaged in the pursuit of a pa
triotic effort of erecting a flag
pole on the front lawn of the
Rubber Workers union head
quarters. After watching them
through the window for some
time "Senator" Holtsberry, my
self, and several of the board
members, thought they should
have a little help-mostly ver-
bal. While general invitation
was issued to the initial flag
raising ceremony scheduled for
sunrise the next morning, the
spectators did not take the in
vitation seriously for it was
doubtful if "Bud" would get the
rope and pulley lined up in time.
Perhaps Herb Premier, tin
ner of local fame, did not realize
he and his helpers had quite an
audience last Wednesday morn
ing, who could not figure what
they were doing with those long
tin troughs in the middle Of
