Eagles Hope To
Organize Aerie
I'm Noble County
Meeting Has Been
Called For Friday
At Caldwell VFW

A call for a meeting of pro-
Spective charter members of a
new aerie of the Fraternal
Order of Eagles, which is being
organized at Caldwell, has been
issued by Earl D. Schob, an or
ganizer for the F. o. E.
The organizer will explain
the aims and benefits of the
Fraternal Order of Eagles and
discuss the requirements for
granting a charter for new
aerie such as is proposed here.
Caldwell is one of the few
communities of its size in the
state which does not support an
Eagles organization. Many local
residents are members but be-
long to organizations outside
the community.
Up to date, Mr.. Sehob, who is
a native of Caldwell and served
four terms as mayor of Mariet-
ia, said several men in Caldwell
have evinced a desire to become
charter members of the new or
ganization. He expects that this
number will be augmented at
the first meeting of prospective
members.
THE Eagles now have more
than 1900 aeries, with approx
imately $4,000 members" Mr..
Schob said. Besides the direct
benefits we pay our members
we have aided thousands Of
other persons through the vari-
Gus civic charitable activities
carried on by the various aeries
and we were directly RESPONSE
bic for old age pension and So
cial security laws and helped
enact many workmen's compen-
sation laws. Our aeries now
own more than $4,000, 900 worth
of war bonds. About 100000 OF
our members are in military
service and we are paying their
dues"
The need of organizing an
Eagles club in Caldwell has
long been felt and eventually il
is expected that Caldwell and
the rural communities will sup
port an organization of SOC
members. 1t has been estimated
that already over 100 residents
| belong to other Eagle lodges IN
nearby communities.
1t is hoped that a large num-
Der will turn out for the Fri
day evening meeting, and that
within a few months, the char
ter will be presented to the
Caldwell aerie.

January, 1943, serving in New
Guinea and Biak Island, being
killed on the latter island,
while serving on patrol duty.
Prior to his death, he had
been awarded the purple heart.
He was the only son of the late
Edward Fogle, whose death oc-
Cured June 2, l947, and Mrs.

City route. He attended the
NeWburg schools and graduated

On Sunday, June 6, at 1890
o'clock, a solemn mass will be Of
sered for the parish by Monsignor
Mehler, and again on Monday,
June 7, a solemn mass will be
offered by the jubilarian in the

bert and ~Anastasia Mehler. Fol-
lowing his ordination in June,
1898, Monsignor Mehler served
four years as assistant at Our
Lady of Angels, Barton. His next

THROWN FROM PONY

Dolores Ann Beckett, daugh.
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. David Beck
EFT, of near Caldwell, suffered
a badly bruised right sinus and
injury to her right eye when
she was thrown by her pony at
the home of her parents. Miss

the rates to be raised several
times during the five year
period, according to the
amount of gas that the con-
sumner used.
The council is considering a
plan to issue a franchise to the
companies which would require
them to pay to the city fixed
sum each month for the privi-
Iege of serving the consumers
i, the vicinity. This would be
in line with the policies of other
cities and towns which already
have a working franchise with
the gas companies serving their
citizens. No action was taken
on the petition for such an
ordnance, but two copies were
retained for study.
Representatives from Hall g.
Barber, Cambridge contractors,
were present at the meeting and
presented to the council plans
for the continuance of a three
year project for the surfacing
of numerous streets within the
village. This plan was inaugu-
rated last year and will be
brought to a close in l949.
Recommendations were made
for a permanent surface to be
applied to six streets and for a
dust layer to be applied to
some six others. A permanent
asphalt top will be applied tc
Spruce, Poplar, Locust, Belford
Railroad, Cumberland streets,
and a portion of the Ross street
The total amount of the con,
tracts for the various streets
will be $4,123.97. The contrac-
tors also agreed to sweep the
public square with their power
broom at no cost to the city anc
thereby rid the public of the
dust nuisance which is now
| prevalent.
Other business before the
council was a petition for the
| closing of a street bordering
| the farm owned by Ed Ball anc
five city lots owned by variou:
persons. Mr.. Ball pointed ou'
that the sewers from this sec
ton of the town have beer
poisoning his cattle and asked
that tile be laid to the creek tt
take care of the sewage prob
lem. In order to get speediel
action, Mr.. Ball was referred tc
the common pleas court.
At the meeting, formal actor
was taken on the resignation oi
Councilman George Bliss, anc
J it was accepted with regrets
Bliss, youngest member of the
council, asked that he be re-
lieved of his duties because i
would be impossible for him tc
attend future meetings of the
council. No action was taken tC
appoint a replacement.
A reading of all bills wa:
made and all were approved
and it was recommended that {
bill be sent to the owners of the
Noble Livestock Auction for the
run made by the city fire truck
during the recent fire which
partially destroyed the yards.
A motion was also approved
to have the city maintenance
men paint and check all fire
