school building, Wednesday eve
ming, Oct. 13 at 7:30 p. m.

homes in the village. In order
to reach all the schools, l must
ride, walk and climb steps a
total of 40 miles and superin-

This dynamic and fruitful
life came to close on April 4,
1943, after a three weeks i'll
ness caused by fall. She left
a colony of a hundred acres of
land, homes for nearly 100
men and women patients, a
dispensary, hospital and a
chapel which was the real
center of its life. Servants dug
her grave near the little chap
el where she had served so
long. Hindus and Christians
carried the white coffin to it's
resting place, followed by
about 200 friends, singing her
favorite hymns.
The name Mary Reed" is
familiar to every person in
i this locality, but the reasons
for her fame are partly forgot
ten, because of her long alb
sence. The coming picture pro-
videS an opportunity for
everyone to see the portrayal
of life, from beginning to
end, that has inspired hun
dreds of people, wherever her
name has been known around
the world. The interest her
life story holds is evidenced
by the fact that a 135 page
biography of Mary Reed has
reached its fifteenth edition in
England.

county labor and equipment,
were being used for the inn
provement of private property.
The examination revealed,
Ferguson declared, hereto
fore unheard of scheme" for
conducting a retail business in
the sale of Stag at the expense
of the county-without benefit
of a vendors license or the pay
ment of a state sales tax.
The state auditor said the
Stag was purchased in the name
of the county, enough not only
to meet the requirements of the
county but also those of favored
private, individuals and corpo-
rations.
According to the examination
released today, the official col
lected $5,245 for 2161 tons OF
Stag sold at retail and also
furnished I'll tons, costing the
county 1924, for which nothing
was collected. The Stag paid
for, Ferguson said, was at the
price per ton billed to the
county. The cost to the county
for illegal handling, hauling and
loading was listed by Ferguson
as $1,733.
The examination report stated
the Stag was purchased from
the Standard Stag Company, of
Youngstown, through their local
agent, who received a commits
sion on every ton purchased by
the county.
Ferguson also said that Noble
county purchased from the Re
public Steel Corp, through
their local agent, total OF
$28,359 worth of corrugated
culvert pipe for which no record
explaining its use or disposition
could be found.
The state auditor said owing
to the fact that no attempt was
made to keep any record of the
culvert pipe and Stag, it was
not possible to determine fully
the extent of the illegal use OF
county material and labor in
Noble county.
Ferguson said the report is
being turned over to the attor-
ney general for recovery of the
findings. He said he is also re-
questing the attorney general
to call a special grand jury to
continue the investigation under
his direction.
At the same time, Ferguson
said the state sales tax depart
ment is presently conducting an
investigation to determine the
amount of an assessment to be
made for sales tax not collected.
The examination in this
county was concluded last Fri
day by Ned Watts and Glen
Butler.
