Ralph Reichenbach's on Riley street
these summr nights and enjoying it
hugely. Among the group are Jim

also Don Montgomery, son of Cliff

former Blufftonite.
Mrs. Eliza Spangler, 76-year old
Bluffton woman was the oldest MEM
ber of the jury which heard the
Washington Philpot manslaughter
trial in the Allen county common
pleas court last week. Instead of
making daily trips from Bluffton to
the county seat, she decided to pack
a bag and stay in Lima overnight.
She's doing pretty welI-that 10
year old Guernsey cow owned by
John Smith, Bluffton Route q Fresh
last summer on August 5, she was
fresh again last Sunday. Just to
add to her record, she had had
several sets of twin calves, which
at today's livestock prices should
make her owner happy.
Top-fight officials of the Nickel
Plate went thru Bluffton Friday
afternoon at $50 o'clock on a special
train powered by one of the roads
new diesel locomotives. Heading the
group was j. w. DAWN, president of
the line. They were enroute from
Cleveland to st. Louis. The trip
was said to be a routine inspection
Of the company's property. From
st. Louis they swung around on the
return trip through Chicago.
Some Bluffton area farmers like
the federal parity price setup-and
some don't. We found it out from
bouquets and brickbats that came in

the subject in this column two weeks

know how it Works-and apparently
no one is particularly interested. One

And the Arthur Amstutzes back
from vacation-they started on a
motor trip to California but decided
to stop at the Black Hills in the
Dakotas rather than make the long
hot drive across the western plains
in mid-July.
And to add to our summer travel
ogue, there is A. D. Wells back
from the Democratic convention at
Philadelphia last week where he had
credentials to go anywhere in the
big convention hall by virtue of the
badge which he wore as assistant
sergeant-at-arms. The credentials
were originally issued to Andrew
Durbin, Kenton politician; but when
the latter was Unexpectedly called
out of the city on business, he turn
ed over the badge and duties of his
office to Wells.
Following the convention Wells
stopped enroute home to visit his
daughter, Mrs. Allen Stauffer and
family in BigIerviIIe, Pa, and while
in nearby Gettysburg stood in the
pew at the Presbyterian church oc-
cupied by Abraham Lincoln the Sun
day before he delivered the Gettys-
h,v,.ex n ~1lr.~~
Also lucky at the Philadelphia
convention was D. W. Bixler visiting
in the city at the time. With the
convention hall jammed and admit
tance by ticket only Bixler dropped
into a nearby auditorium where do
ings at the convention were being
transmitted by television. A chance
acquaintance, however, with an extra
ticket made it possible for the Bluff
ton man to get into the main show
and see the convention in person.
Sorry it's necessary to mention Il
that vandalism that has beer

the part Of the club which ha'
provided the park with modern
conveniences and looks after it

ideal spot for summer picnics ane
outings and those who accept it
hospitality should help to keep th'
park the inviting spot which th'
club has intended it. Some time ag'
