New Dodge Truck on
Display OF Locul
Showroom This Week

A completely new line Of
Dodge TOLERATED trucks COM
prising 248 basic chassas models
ranging from 1880 to $1,000
pounds gross vehicle weight and
up to 10000 pounds gross train
weight was announced today by
L. F. VanNorfWick.
Some : moders of the new
trucks will be displayed start
ing January Z by Ray Morissette
in Hardin.
Front axles have been moved
back and engines have been
moved forward to place more
of the gross vehicle weight on
the front axle and provide bet
ter weight distribution. The
Wheelbase for conventional mo-
dels through the 2-ton has been
reduced eight inches, while the
az and 3-ton models have been
reduced six inches. The new
trucks have been engineered so
that despite the shorter wheel
UdSSGS, Ul1G D-UO-dh QllllCll-
sions remain practically un-
changed, making it possible to
use the same length bodies as
before.
New ease of handling and
driving has been provided by
the shorter WheelbaseS and
wider tread front axle, together
with cross steering, which is a
new feature on all convention
al cab models. Drivers now can
park or back into alleys or up
to loading platforms with much
greater ease.
Standard, de luxe and custom
cabs provide more room, more
visibility, more safety, and more
comfort for the driver. =
= Dodge has seven different en-
gines to handle the power re-
quirementS of its new line.
Numerous engine Improvements
have been made.

is imperative as the unprecedent-

rollment so much that every spare
room is doing double usage.
Sims stated that the building
must be constructed at once, de-
spite high cost of building, as
the peak enrolment is expected by
1855. "The children are here-we
must provide for them now", he
added.
At cost of $3.50 per thousand
dollars, taxpayers will provide 13
classrooms, kindergarten room,
all-purpose room, visual educa-
ton room, small grade library,
rest rooms, addition to the Home

the marsh situation which de-
veloped. A pocket Of inactive wa
ter was thus formed behind the
water works, allowing the marsh
to obtain foothold. The cat-tails
are now fourishing where the old
river bed was years ago.
About 1928, sand sucker was
engaged to pump in sand behind
the water works, thus providing
the first "fill" and the base for
the present operations. This sand
sucking operation accounts for the
pocket of deep water directly east
of the pier at the waters edge.
Beyond this pocket, the bar is
again forming.
A good example of success in fill
ing in over cat-tails is the land at
the Yacht club, north of the bath
houses. A lagoon was dredged and
the muck thrown to the center. The
marsh and weeds were cut there
after making a dry and useful plot
of land. In our present lakefront
improvements, it is important that
the fill be high enough, as cat-tails
will not thrive on dry ground.
Our anonymous contributor of,
the above information has this to
say in conclusion: "a sand beach
is already formed by nature, as
evidenced by the three-foot bank
of said and fringe of trees, form
ing a new shore line. No marsh is
growing beyond this bar as the
wave action and sandy bottom
deter its growth. This beach needs
only solid ground behind it to
make it available for public use."

EXPERT EXPLAINS CARP REMOVAL
EXPERIMENT AT JIM'S PLACE

With numerous complaints and
rumors prevalent about the area
following the Rotenone experiment
at Leroy Weier's Danbury town
ship marsh last week, the News
believes the following explanation
written by a local authority, will
spike unfounded rumors.
Improved fishing was the ulti-
mate aim of the experiment per-
formed at Middle Harbor last
week. Whenever carp are acci-
dentally introduced into lake
which has no outlet, such as
Middle Harbor, the net result is
ruined fishing for bass, bluegills,
crappies and other game fish, be-
cause carp create conditions in
which no other species Of fish can
thrive.
"Three years ago, carp entered
Middle Harbor through a break
in the dyke. When the dyke was
repaired the fish were sealed in.
The carp increased tremendously,
and their roofing habits on the
mucky bottom turned the clear
waters into a mud-hoe, Bass and
pike feed upon live fish and the
water must be clear enough for
them to see their prey. AS the
carp increase, the water gets
muddier, and the game fish pass
out of the picture, When this
happens, the only thing to do is
remove the fish and start all over
again.
"This was accomplished at Mid
die Harbor by the use of rotenone.
AS the fish were removed from
the lake, careful record was kept
of the various species of fish.
Only IA largemouth bass, four
pike and a few bluegills and crap
pies were found among the eight
tons Of carp. Carp made up more
than 99p6 of all the fish in the
lake. No wonder the anglers who
Ottawa County news. (Port Clinton, Ohio) 1931-1956, 1948-10-15

rent boats from Jin's Place could
not catch any bass last summer!
"Rotenone merely paralyzes the
gills of fish, leaving them perfect
ly good to eat. In fact, the South
Sea Islanders have used rotenone
for centuries in order TO catch fish
for food. The Indians along the
Gulf of Mexico were the first to
use the chemical in this country,
although it is widely used by fish
management experts throughout
the United States. This is the
first instance, however, of such
work in this section Of Ohio.
"The muddy waters of Middle
Harbor are already clearing up,
and the lake can soon be restock-
ed with game fish. All of which
should make the local anglers, as
well as the tourists who drive
many miles to fish at Jim's Place,
very happy indeed"

Wake Up, America


Here in the United States, I'm
touched by bombs, our factories and
shops doomed. The good earth
yielded bountiful crops each year
after the war ceased, and our gran
aries swelled to overlooking; CRATE
full hearts poured forth thanks to
Divide Providence, for now we had
enough and to spare for the war
torn lands beyond u shores.
The joyous season of Christmas
tide again descended upon the world
with its teachings of brotherly love,
infinite patience and tolerance; that
season when we chant loud and
fervently, "Peace on earth, goodwill
to men," Each year for generations
we have gone through the same
ecstatic procedure and then, hardly
waiting for the echoes to die away,
we resolutely dump or pack away
