Three Secondary
Roads Closed In
BrOOkfieId Twp.
Ohio Power Building
New Railroad Into
Strip Mining Field

Having proceeded according to
law, the Noble county commission
ers went on record Monday after
noon closing the three roads in
Brookfield township, which the
Ohio Power Co. deemed necessary
to expedite their strip mining
activities.
Public hearing on closing the
three secondary roads was held
Monday by the commissioners and
no objections were flied with this
! board.
The three roads now closed to
public service, includes township
road No. 90 from its intersection
with township road No. 81 in a
northeasterly direction to the John
ChlaStala farm, a distance of about
one-half mile; township road No.
81 from its intersection with road
number 80 in northerly direction
to the Noble-Guernsey county line,
distance of seven-eighths mile,
and the township road which in
terSects with state route No. rs at
the Wheeler Gorby farm in Brook
field township, running in south
No. 24 distance of 11s miles.
On Monday, Sept. 3, the county
commissioners viewed these roads
and this Monday held a public
hearing before they took final
action.
Extending Railroad
Grading was started last Wednes-
day on a two and one-half mile
strip of land from Cumberland in
to Brookfield township, Noble
county, for extension of the tracks
of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad
an outlet for the Ohio Power Co.
in their extensive trip mining
operations.
The new extension will termin-
ate at the new tipple which will
be erected on the John Hickman
farm. The railroad will pass
the former William VIII
son, Edward Miller, Virgil Law,
Wheeler Gorby, and John Hick-
man farms.
When completed, the railroad
extension will afford better faciIi-
ties for removing the coal from the
Noble county mining area to its
destination. Approximately "a car
loads of coal per day are being re-
moved. A siding which will take
care of so cars will also be laid.
Forty to 70 men will be en-
oloyed in laying the switch and
he project is expected to require
about six months. Equipment for
he work has been taken to the
ute from Ti1tOOSvjlIe
Construction of the railroad was
necessary as an outlet for the stag
5erlng coal output per day.
Practically every farm in Brook
ield township has been purchased
~ the Ohio Power Co., with the
possible exception of the Perkins
arm. Miss Clara Perkins is en-
'loyed in Caldwell as secretary to
he county superintendent of
chools.

Nearly doubling their annual
gross income is comparison with
1910, as reported by the U. S. Bur
eau fo Census, Noble county farm
families last year produced crops
and Iivestocks with the record
value of more than $2,528,000.
This huge increase in farm rev
enue has already created heavy de-
nand for general farm improve
ments and for home remodeling,
according to a study released by
the Tile Council of America. With
every industry anticipating greater
business in the state than before
the war, floor and wall tile manu-
facturers alone expect their sales
here to triple in the next few years
Increased sales of industrial
products mean in turn new level
of prosperity for every local bus
inessman and worker" said D. P.
Forst chairman of the Councils

Watch Your Step, Girls !

1t only happens once in a
while but Friday of this week is
the 18th of September and those
who are skeptical and the least
bit superstitious will be hard
pressed to get through the day.
Friday, the 18th, doesn't mean
a thing to the Caldwell Red
skins, who will open their foot
ball season on that date, against
the Marietta Reserves. Of course
the losing team can always
blame their bad luck on the
date.
In any case, the calendar says
that Friday is the 18th, and
there is very little one can do
about it.
Just watch your steps, girls.

Benefits Increased For
Dependent Children

Gov. Lausche has signed the bills
that will increase benefits to the
blind and to dependent children in
Noble county. The increases were
made because federal grants to the
state for such aid has been boosted
under a law passed before Congress
adjourned.
There are seven blind pensioners
in Noble county and approximately
40 children who will benefit by this
increase.
Another much discussed bill that
would increase aid to old-age pen
sIoners in Noble county has not yet
been signed by the governor. He

Ohio Associated Telephone Com
pany, they ask for consent and
authority to file and place in eff
feet a revised schedule of rates and
charges applicable to all of its sub
scribers in its Caldwell district,
which includes all the exchanges
previously named.
Not Sufficient Revenue
The application states that the
charges now collected under the
rates provided have not heretofore
and do not yield sufficient revenue
to provide fair return on the fair
value of the property used and
useful in the public service, plus
allowable operating expense S,
taxes and depreciation.
It further states that recent leg
islation, both State and Federal,
has imposed increased taxes in
considerable amounts and that the
price of required material and
supplies have increased and that
wage increases to employees have
become necessary both because of
rapidly rising living costs and new
legislation.
cant does not propose to increase
all of its rates in all of the eX-
changes in the Caldwell district
but that it proposes merely to ad-
Just certain of its rates within GER
tain of its exchanges in order that
said rates, after adjustment, will
be comparable to rates charged for
similar services by other telephone
companies.
Proposed Increases
The monthly and annual in
creases anticipated for each of the
exchanges in the Caldwell district
are as follows:
Caldwell, monthly, $262.85-an-
nual, $3,5142O; Beverly, monthly
1926. annual, $3,54O6O; Dexter
City, monthly, $45.8O-annual,
S549.6O; Lowell, monthly, $7O.65-
annual, $8478O; Lower Salem,
monthly, OO-annual, $4,000;
Pleasant City, monthly, $51.50-an-
nual, $61800; SenecaVille, monthly,
$50. .30-annual, $603.60; Summer
field, monthly, $45.85 - annual,
S55O.2O; Watertown monthly,
S36. annual, $441.00; Barlow,
monthly, $35.35-annual, $424.2O.
The total anticipated increases
for the month will be $935.1O and
annually, $11,221.20 for the entire
Caldwell district.
Revised Valuation
Investigation by the Engineers
of the Commission in the Caldwell
District showed the revised valua-
ton of the entire district, includ-
ing a reasonable allowance for
working capital, including supplies,
as follows: reproduction cost, new,
$283, ,326.65; depreciation (20.5l %o),
$58, ,O96.16 and present value, $225,-
23O.49.
It is reasonable to assume that
since no known objections were
filed, the Ohio Associated tele-
phone company will receive a
favorable opinion from the Utill-
ties Commission.

Hanging Head BenetitS Face and Scalp
By ALICIA HART NEA Staff Writer

The best way to give yourself quick facial is to hang your head. Not in shame but in cheerful con- fidence that lowered head speeds blood to that extremity and brings stimulating flow to the sur face of the skin
 There are both active and passive ways to give skin and scalp these benefits. For the lazybones famous Fifth Avenue salon advocates lying down for 15 minutes day with head lowered approximately 15 degrees below feet level
 The more active girl, who depends upon exercise to unklnk muscles, the same routine to give herself the equivalent of fancy facial Agile movie Star Jeff Donne, for one, turns cartwheels and can as nimbly stand on her head
