Bridge Painting
Contracts Made

Large sums of money are ex-
pended annually to construct and
maintain Ohio's network of high
ways. To safeguard the taxpayers
investment in good roads, the
State Highway Department, a.
mong other things, does every
thing possible to prevent undue
deterioration of highway bridges
from rust, erosion and other dam
age, according to State Director
T. ]. Kauer. The application of
special paints to bridge steel and
masonry is one of the most effect
i've means of meeting this prob
lem.
In line with this policy, Divi-
sion Engineer Octave Ammon,
Delaware, announces the award
ing of a contract to Dale Wiley,
of OStrander, and Andrews
Painting Company, of Youngs-
town, for painting four bridges in
Union County. These include
Little Darby bridge on Route 161,
west of Plain City; Buck Run on
Route 275, west of Marysville; and
structures over Big Darby and
Suger Creek on Route AZ, north
of Plain City.
Mr.. Ammon urges the travel
ing public to cooperate with the
contractors in observing warning
signs which are placed at the ap-
proaches to bridges being painted
so that workers will be protected
from possible injury and automo-
biles from paint flying from spray
guns.

Florida Bird. Rore
Here. Found on Ldwn
BY Mrs. Rupprecht

A bird native to Florida
but very rare in this northern
climate was found by Mrs.
John Rupprecht, Wednesday
morning on the lawn of her
home on the Kenton road.
Mrs. L. w. Shaw, COS w.
Seventh ST., local ornitholo-
gist, identified the bird as a
Florida Gallinule. 1t was
about 13 inches long, of a
blue-gray color with a light
breast and green legs. The
bill was yellow with a red
shield near the base.
Mrs. Shaw said that the
Gallinule is a wading bird
and the Rupprecht home be-
ing along Mill Creek would
in some measure explain the
birds presence there.
Mrs. Rupprecht said that
she heard call like that
characteristic of the Gallinule
Tuesday and expressed belief
that it was the mate of the
one she found, which was al
most dead upon discovery.

Mid State League May Disband
AS Marysville, Redwood Resign

Withdrawal of Marysville and
Redwood leaves the Mid-State
League with only three members,
Marion st. Mary, Carey and Ada
OF these, only st. Mary is one of
the original founders. The League
had been established in 1916 by
Marysville, Redwood, Marion st.
Mary, Mt. Gilead and Sunbury.
SunburY First Out
First one to drop out was Sun
bury, after only one season of
competition. Carey was then
brought into the Circuit to re-
place the Delaware Countians,
and the League began moving
further north. Last fall, Mt. Gil
cad announced its resignation,
and Ada came into the fold.
Now, with Marysville and
Redwood both out of the League,
it may disband completely, or the
three remaining members may
try to bring other teams in to
continue it, perhaps under pew
name.
Several of the League officials
were in favor of immediate dis
solution of the group at Mon
days meeting, Athletic Director
G.. L. Kingsmore of Marysville
said.

In Oakland Hotel; Good Season is Seen

Don Cossack chorus, the Siden-
bourg Sinfonietta, the baritone,
John Tiers and the other fine ar
lists, will certainly not let that
high type of entertainment die in
our community.
There are several reasons why
this third season should be an
outstanding one:
First, large selection of ar

drive is held at this time.
Second, more money will be
available for artists even if the
