ESQ FROM COUNTY
GET CRANCEDEGREE
Mass Installation Rites
Planned in December

Approximately $50 Grange
members from Union county
took the Seventh Degree work in
connection with the 18th annual
national Grange convention in
Columbus, last week, Thurman
Skidmore, county deputy master,
announced this week.
Altogether, 1850 took the de-
gree-highest the Grange offers
which can only be given during
a national convention. This is the
largest Seventh Degree class in
the history of the Grange, and is
thought to be the largest in any
fraternal order at one session.
Prior to the national conven-
ton, which opened Nov. II, the
annual State Grange convention
was held in Columbus, Nov. 10
and IL. Union county Grangers
attended this convention en- mas
Sc, Mr.. Skidmore said. Mr.. and
Mrs. S. P. Parmenter, of Mill
creek township; and Mr.. and Mrs.
Kenneth Blake, of Liberty town
ship, were official county dele
gates to the state convention
Record breaking Seventh De-
gree class, and unusual enthus-
iaSm throughout the National
convention was attributed by
National Master Albert S. GoSS
to the work of State Master JOS
eph Joseph w. FIGHTER and his
aides prior to the convention. One
of the pre-convention activities
organized was comforting the
Sixth Degree to large groups of
which Mr.. FIGHTER and his staff
candidates at various cities in Ju-
ly and August. Marysville was
one of these cities, 1900 receiv-
ing the degree here.
Union county Pomona Grange
and subordinate Grange officers
will be installed at a joint cere-
mony early in December. An in
stalling team from the University
will be in charge.

LEGION LAUNCHES
DRIVE FOR MONEY
TO BUILD ANNEX
Campaign Outlined
To Post Membership
In Meeting on Monday

Plans for a $4,000 campaign to
build~en addition to the Memorial
Building in Legion Park were
presented to members of Union
Post No. 79 of the American
Legion, in special meeting Mon
day night. 1t is hoped to raise the
bulk of the money among mem
bers of the Post, and the balance
through private contributions of
non-memberS.
The addition as planned would
be approximately so to 20 feet
wide and 80 feet long, and extend
south from the present Memorial
Building, thus making T-shaped
structure. 1t would be constructed
on two levels, the slope of the
hill in back of the present memoir
ial building being sufficient that
very little excavating would be
necessary.
The addition would include a
very large hall on the top floor,
which would be available for
community functions of any kind,
dances, banquets, reunions, ETC.,
for which no adequate facilities
are now available here. There
would also be kitchen facilities,
rest rooms, etc., and one portion
which would be set aside for the
exclusive use of Legionnaires, as
club rooms.
Describe Buildings Need
Need for such structure in
Marysville was outlined by
Charles B. Mills, of the o. M
Scott & Sons CO., and Gwynn
Sanders, Marysville attorney
Mr.. Mills described the manner
in which the present Park and
facilities were obtained for
Marysville by World War / vet
Grams. He related how much the
park and its facilities have meant
to the community, and how they
have been enjoyed here. But, as
he pointed out, they have served
their purpose and need for much
expanded facilities it at hand.
Mr.. Sanders reminded his fell
low veterans of World War III
that, when they returned from the
services, they found the way
pretty well paved for them by the
World War l boys. "We found
things easy" he said, with this
building already up"
From now on, World War II
veterans will derive the most ben
eft from present and future fac
ilities, Mr.. Sanders added, calling
on the newer veterans to do the
job.
Pledge Cards Distributed
Following the remarks of Mr..
Sanders and Mr.. Mills, Lloyd
Smallman, chairman of the Posts
park and building committe, dis
tributed pledge cards among the
86 members present. Thirty-one
of these cards were filled and re-
turned Immediately for pledges
totalling $2360--an average of
slightly more than 800 per pledge.
Mr.. Smallman told the mem
bers that all money raised toward
the building will go into a sepa-
rate fund, to be available for
nothing else. If, within 10 years,
the building has not yet been con-
structed, all pledge money will be
returned.
First pledge was made by Geo.
Schlegel, a veteran of the Span
ish-American war, who contribu-
ted $100. Mr.. Schlegel had ex-
pressed the hope, at family re-
union in the Park in l943, that he
could be the first donor toward
any postwar expension project,
although he is not a member of
the Legion.
Opening and closing rituals of
the meeting were conducted by
William c. Otte, post commander,
who turned the remainder of the
session over to Mr.. Smallman as
park chairman.

DIAMONDS, WATCH
TAKEN TUESDAY;
OWNER SEES ACT
Burglar Chased to Car
Parked In E. Fourth:
Second Time This Year

Several diamond rings and a
watch, valued at between $1,000
and $500, were stolen from the
north window of the Hildreth
Jewellery store at 126 N. Main st.
at 1926 p. m., Tuesday. The thief,
described as a young man, in his
20's wearing brown suit and
brown felt hat, used a small
egg-sized stone to break the plate
glass window. This is the second
time this year that the Hildreth
store has been burglarized, the
other being on the morning of
March 27 when someone threw
a brick through the other show
windows.
At the time of the theft Tues
day, Harold Hildreth, owner, was
working in the back of the store.
Merrill Vail, who works in the
barber shop below the store and
also assists with watch repair,
was also present. Il heard some
glass break and thought that
something had fallen in the front
of the store, Mr.. Hildreth related.
He walked to the front of the
store behind the counter and
started to look out the window.
AS he did, he saw the reflection
of the thief, reaching in the brok-
en- front glass, in the side glass
of the window. He Immediately
went outside starting the thief
on the run when he opened the
door.
Gets Away In Car
Mr.. Hildreth gave chase up
Main st. and around the corner
of E. Fourth ST., hesitating twice
when the bandit threatened to
shoot. The thief then got into
car parked in front of the house
of James Dolan, 12l E. Fourth st.
"The man was alone, Mr..
Hildreth stated, "as he entered
the car just beyond the alley back
of the Conrad Monument works,
and drove east on Fourth st.
1T was too dark to get a clear
view of the get away car, but Mr..
Hildreth believed it was d late
model car and perhaps of Ply
mouth make.
Mrs. Hildreth was away at the
time, but her mother, Mrs. Elsie
Miller, was in the apartment
above the store and also heard
the breaking glass.
In his haste, the thief dropped
two rings still in their boxes,
short distance from the store.
These were found later, by Mrs.
Miller. Another ring, in mashed
box, was found by Mr.. Vail near
post just around the corner on
Fourth st.
Check Not Completed
Mrs. Hildreth had not complet-
ed her check for stolen articles,
but had found over $1,000 worth
; missing, with some more rings
still to be checked. More diamond
rings, valued at $3.50 and several
watches, were saved by Mr.. Hill
dreth, when he scared the thief
away.
Included in the loot were five
wedding sets, one of which was
recovered in the rings found on
the side walk.
Mrs. Chester Scheiderer viewed
the whole robbery from her car
which was parked in front of the
Wilcox Restaurant on N. Main
ST., just a few doors away from
the scene of the theft. She was
unable to give a clear description
of the man, however; only that
