He said letters are pouring in
which people want him to carry

The idea is to have a souvenir

The trouble is, the Presidents pilot

He also tod the Assembly why at

Real lace, replaced by the paper va1i-
ETY. during the past few years, was
back on the sentimental Valentines.
And, perhaps symbolic Of the new age
Of iet-pronclled romance, were cards
with plastic hearts and orchids en-
closed in plastic.
The verses inside these plastic
covered Valentines, however, are still
wa.m-hearteJ. The only difference is
that this year the coy "Wiu-you-be-
ninp?' theme has given way to an
cut-and-out declaration Of affection.
The modern swain doesn't court his
love in vague, fIowely verse: He
comes right out and says Il love YOU
in plain English
But for those who prefer to be more
cautious, there are whimsical cards
like the one showing a barefoot boy
in ovelulls, leaning against corn
stalk and hiating: "Aw, shucks, don t
va ever play post office or nothin' 4?
Then there is little bear cub who
says accusin9ly: You Big Lug, Now
look what you've done =" Turn the
cover and she adds: - to my heart"
And the bears heart, mounted on a
spring. wobbles and shakes.
Although Valentines are produced
nearly a year in advance, they never
.theless manage to keep up with the
times. The housing shortage, for eX-
ample, evidently inspired one card
ititled For My Valentine Hubby"
The verse goes like this:
"Ill be happy in a castle
I'll be nappy in a tent
Just as long as | am certain
You're the guy who pays the remit"
Another Valentine shows two glum-
looking ducks, one carrying a heart
shaped placard reading; Don't Be
Unfail.' On the inside page the duck
holds another sign: Lets Get Or
ganized."
Even science has affected the af-
fairs Of the heart. On one Valentine
greeting a queen bee is shown scowl-
ing at a he bee and saying: "Stop
your 6uzzin' round me, see OR
I'LL GET OUT MY D.D.T."
A csl1y-over from the old-time
comic Valentine is the slam Valen-
tine, viii h appears for the first time
this year But where the comics of
the past -idn't spare the recipients
feelings, the 1947 version provides
some good-ratured ribbing Here's the
way memlar Of the fairer sex gives
a guy the blush-off today:
IF you ike me like like you
Then life is bright and dewey,
But if YOU don't
Then listen here,
All | say is
Phooey!'

Noble County Files Two Fatal Claims
With Industrial Commission OF Ohio

Columbus, Oct. % (OP)-Two
fatal claims from Noble county have
been filed with the Industrial Com
mission of Ohio during the first six
months of l947, according to a re-
port issued by the Division of Safe
ty and Hygiene.
Throughout the state there were
sol fatal claims filed as a result OF
industrial accidents during the first
six months as compared with only
448 during the same period last
year.
An increase of slightly over &c
percent was noted in the number Of
non-fatal injuries filed in the first
half of 1947. There were lao, ,l0f
filed this year compared to only
116,600 during the same period last
year.
Some let-down in safety was ex.
pected by the division during the
reconversion period because of the
elimination of the patriotic incen-
tiveS that stimulated accident pre-
vention during the war years.
Without a doubt, the division re-
ports, if production is maintained
at a level adequate to meet the de-
mand for consumer goods, the safe
ty forces of the state are likely tc
be confronted with an exposure
practically as heavy as that during
the war years and if they are tc
keep the record down, they must in.
tenSify their protection efforts ir
due proportion.

Union Recognition
By Cozier Officials
Matter OF Dispute
No Indication OF
Any Settlement Is
Advanced By Groups

The walk-out by over so of its
go employees on Tuesday of last
week has failed to bring about any
definite discussion tending toward
an early settlement between union
representatives and officials of the
Cozier Container Corp. Picketing
lines still continue in order around
the Caldwell branch.
The company's failure to discuss
matters with representatives of the
United Construction Workers, affiI-
lated with the United Mine Workers
of America, as explained in state
ment by the plant manager, Dan
Barlow, is based solely on the i'm
proper procedure followed by the
striking employees in an effort to
obtain union recognition.
Joseph DiStefano, national repre-
sentative of the United Construction
Workers, said Tuesday that he was
in conference with members of the
National Labor Relations Board, in
Cleveland on Monday and they adj
vised him that the employees of the
Cozier Container Corp. were within
their jurisdictional rights to strike
and picket in order to obtain their
objective, union recognition.
In statement made Tuesday, Mr..
DiStefano said that he was quite
hopeful that a meeting could be ar
ranged in the very near future to
determine by an election, whether
or not the majority of the EMPLOYEES
wanted union representation. If not.
attempted negotiations would end
| Immediately.
To date, only violence of a lesser
degree has been reported from the
picketing lines. Tuesday morning a
