any administration after the war will depend on the success of the Veterans Administration"
 EVA IMPORTANT
 Federal Works Agency, now under Maj. Gen. Philip B. Fleming, is another outfit that will be of tremendous importance in the postwar period. It will handle all public works, expected to be huge. Fleming is known to be on cordial terms with Truman but has some bitter enemies in high positions in the Democratic party.
 John B. Blandfords job as head of National Housing Agency is believed to be pretty safe. Bland ford has excellent associations with Congress and apparently that pleases Truman.
 There are 10 Federal judge ships vacant which Truman will have to fill soon. Openings are for five District Judges, four Cir cult Judges and the Supreme Court of Puerto Rico. There is also an opening as head of the Lands Division in the Department of Justice.

in the Marysville public schools,
and any others who may be inter-
ested, to observe the manner in
whcih the school is operated will
be given next Monday when a
might school will be held
throughout the system.
I'VE will attempt to operate as
nearly as possible under a normal
situation" Supt. H. w. Carr said.
There will be no set program, so
that the evening will be as much
as possible just like regular class
eS are conducted"
The night session will begin at
7:30 pm. and last until $50 pm.
There will be four Commute per-
iodS.
Glasses during the night session
will be the regular forenoon class
es. Usual afternoon classes will be

may deyiate slightly form the
morning schedule, but will follow it

circumstances.
Purpose of the event, Supt. Carr

public some insight as to how the
schools and classes are conducted.
Each class period will take up as
usual, and will be conducted in the
usual manner with recitationS and
question-and-ansWer periods.
The only difference between the
classes next Monday night and US
ual periods is that they will be only
20 minutes long instead of As, and
visitors will be present in the
rooms.

solved Monday when w. E. Hall
and Arbie Cramer held a complete
dispersal sale on Mr.. Halls farm
in Liberty township.
The partnership was note-Worth-
y throughout central Ohio as hav-
ing built up outstanding herds of
purebred Aberdeen Angus cattle,
Poland China hogs and Shropshire
sheep. Mondays sale reflected this
reputation in both the quality of
stock sold and the prices obtained.
Dissolution of the partnership
came about as the result of Mr..
Cramer's decision to enter buSi-
ness in Redwood.
Highest average prices, of
course, were obtained for the A
