Solons Discuss
Rural Fire Calls
For Burning Cars
Payment for Trip
is Principal Obstacle;
May Extend Oak St.

Question of whether the Marys-
vile Fire Department should
answer calls for burning automo-
biles and trucks outside the cor
porate limits monopolized most
of the discussion at last Thurs
days meeting of Village Council,
No final decision was reached,
despite lengthy gab-fest on the
matter.
Seems the big question centers
around who is to pay for the trip
in event of such fires-the town
ship in which the burning We
hicle stops, the owner of the car,
or the insurance company. Viii
lage at present has contracts with
several adjoining townships un-
der which the Marysville Fire De-
partment answers rural fire "a
larms with property owners pay
ing the bill.
Automobiles, however, come
under a different category than
buildings. City Solicitor William
l.. Coleman was instructed by the
SolonS to meet with township
trustees and try to work out
some agreement
John Erich, who owns several
rental properties in Marysville,
requested Council open N. Oak St,
north of E. Fourth. He plans to
move several homes there, he
said
At present time, N. Oak ter
inmates at Fourth ST., and
large barn erected years ago by
Peter Schlegel stands directly op-
posite. If the extension is allowed,
this barn would have to be torn
down or moved. Property is now
owned by Fred Bolenbaugh.
Reports have been received by
Council that water pressure in
the southeast section of town is
too low. Councilman Fred Easton,
chairman of the light and water
committee, was instructed TO in
veStigate and report back.
Preliminary plans for the Viii
lagos summer street repair pro-
gram were also discussed. Several
of the streets will also be oiled,
it was decided.
Present for the meeting were
Mayor Kingsmore, Clerk Scheid-
erer, Solicitor William j. Porter,
and Councilmen Dale Overly, r.
c. Hervey, William Huffman, c.
P. Wagner and Fred Easton.

Nun1ismutists Hold
Regular Meeting
Here on Wednesday,

Perhaps one of the most out
standing meetings of the year was
held Wednesday evening by the

Twenty-Five members and guests

lector of Columbus, give a inter
esting and instructive lecture up
on the series of United States

each type of these notes.
During the course of the meet
ing, Fred Kern Sr., president of
the Columbus Numismatic Socie-
ty, presented to the local club
president, Stanley Schillinger, a
beautiful gavel made from old
timber from the original Union
County Court House, which stood
on the fairgrounds for many years
and which since has been razed
and removed. Upon the gavel is
gold plate, upon which is inscrib-
ed the fact that it was presented
to the local society by the Co
lumbus society and the date of
presentation.
A committee was appointed by
the President to formulate an
essay contest, to be held next fall
in the local High School, suitable
prizes to be awarded by the So
ciety Five new members were
received into the society during

were read for five more, showing
an excellent interest in numis-
maticS in this community.

cluded complete set of United
States $3.50 gold pieces from 1894

Ex-SheriH Digs Up
2-Toiled Fish Worm

For the prize freak of ma
ture" of all time. former Sheriff
H. S. Roosa believes his dis
coverY of last week leads the
list.
Pud's "You-name-it" is two
tailed fishing worm which he
found while digging in his gar
den last Friday. The worms
body branches off about two
thirds of the way back from the
head to make the extra tail.
When the worm crawls. the
segments in both tails stretch
and contract, just like the rest
of its body. Pud is now specu-
lating on the possibility of bait
ing hooks with the one worm
and catching two fish-or some
thing.
