$3.50, 600 Project to Provide County
With Dual Power Source by Oct. |

A new supply of abundant and
the most reliable electrical energy
that modern engineering can de-
wise will soon be available to the
homes, farms, stores and indus
tries of Union County according
to an announcement made today
by r. w. Bigler, Marysville dis
trict manager of The Dayton
Power and Light Company.
A new 30-mile, 132,O0O-volt
transmission line is now under
construction from the company's
B eaver substation (~switching
center) at Trebein, Ohio, to a new
substation at Urbana. From this
point the electrical energy will
be carried from Urbana to Ma
rysville over a new $4,000 volt
transmission line and a $4,000
volt line from Urbana through
Woodstock and Milford Center.
Marysville will, therefore, be
fed directly from either of the
company's two generating sta

French Arnrine Hurt
As He Suffers Stroke.
Folls from Wagon

French Amrine, Marysville Rt.
5, was seriously injured Wednes-
day when he suffered a stroke
and fell from a wagon at the
edge of town.
Apparently Mr.. Amrine struck
his head as he fell from the
horse-drawn wagon and was re-
ported suffering from a tract
ured skull and internal injuries
as a result.
When he did not come home for
supper his son, Richard, we'll
known local gunsmith, went back
to look for him. He found his
father laying on the ground and
the horses and wagon at the
other end of the field. The Will
lam H. Faulkner ambulance was
called and he was taken to White
Cross hospital.
Mr.. Amrine's condition was re-
ported as critical at noon Thurs
day, according to Sheriff Walter
Galloway.

Farm veterans in Union Coun-

now taking courses offered by the
Veterans Administration under
supervision of the State Depart
ment of Education in seven class
es total almost $50.
Veterans regularly employed
in farming who still expect to re-

the Union County Veterans Ad-
visory Committee to get their
applications into the office of
County Supt. Gale Baldwin with
in the next few weeks.
Veterans are completing their
entitlements and whenever the
enrolment in the class falls be-
low IL it is necessary to interrupt
the class. 1t is very important for
all farm veterans who can qualify
and who desire to take this
training to apply and get into
class while classes and instructors
are available. Veterans waiting
until next June, when the time
for entering as provided in the
Ex-servicemen's Act expires, may
find it difficult to locate a class.

manager said. This is one of the
best quality crops in some time"
he added.
The elevator in Marysville was
slower in getting their first load
of wheat in but their volume is
nearing that of the Milford plant.
The quality here is also excel
liant.
Gerhardt Nicol was the first
farmer to bring grain into the
Marysville elevator, coming in
late Monday afternoon.
Scab or head blight of wheat
is very much in evidence in the
maturing wheat crop of the state
at the present time although
there is none here according to
r. S. Davidson of the Department
of Botany and Plant Pathology.
Wheat heads infected with scab
may have one to several diseased
kernels

miles south of Dayton, or the
F. M. TAFT Station in Dayton, over
a complete network of the new
and most reliable transmission
lines thus far devised by electri-
cal engineers, says Mr.. Bigler.
Dual Source of Power
To further assur the supply of
energy for this are from unfore-
seen emergencies and accidents,
Marysville will have a dual
source of power. The two $4,000
volt transmission lines from
Springfield to Urbana will be tied
in with the new system thereby
providing an emergency source
of power.
The dual transmission lines be-
tween Urbana and Marysville,
now in operation, will complete
this protection not only in Ma
rysville itself but to all of the
intervening communities and rur-
al lines. The electrical energy can
be fed in either direction over
either of these lines.
The new Trebein-U rbana trans
mission line is being built at a
cost of $870,000 and embodies the
| Attest construction principles
known in electrical engineering.
The first eight and one half
miles of the lines from Trebein
north will be built on steel tow
ers. The balance of the line, 81 "
miles, will be the new "H" frame
type of construction.
These frames are made of two
70-foot poles set eight feet into
the ground and 14R feet apart.
The 30-foot cross is attached
nine feet below the top of the
poles, and therefore, So feet
above the ground level.

next Sunday morning, July 16,
the service beginning at 1890
o'clock. The Rev. A. w. Zell, the

years the church building is sub
stantially the same as it was
when first dedicated and has

Well-Child Clinic S
Future Clouded
By Lack OF Funds
Vogel Urges SUPPORT
o. Home. Community
Groups Campaign

Delay by the Senate in passing
a bill providing funds for public
health services is threatening the
future of the well-child confer
ences which are being held in
Union County regularly, DR.. r.
A. Vogel, county health commits
Sioner, stated this week.
The local Health Department
has been notified of a curtail-
ment in Federal Grant aid funds
which became effective July /.
"The present emergency that
the Federal Government finds
itself in has caused the bill to be
held in the hands of a Senate in
vestigation committee" DR.. Vo-
gel said.
In the past the medical ex-
penses for conducting the we'll
child clinics have been financed
from funds made available
through the Child Hygiene Divi-
sion of the Ohio Department of
Health. Due to the curtailment of
funds, this money is no longer
available, and will not be so n
less the pending Senate bill is
passed.
In order to continue the Well
Child Conferences it is necessary
to raise the needed funds from
other sources, DR.. Vogel stated.
The Home and Community
committee of the Union County
Farm Bureau is endeavoring to
raise these funds. 1t strongly urg-
es every member of the county
to come to their assistance.
The Doctor feels that these
conferences are a greatly needed
service in this community and at
the same time they are one of the
greatest contributions toward
preventive medicine"
The purpose of the child elm
les is to provide continuous
health supervision for well in
fants and pre-school children at
monthly intervals. DR. Vogel
urges that these projects not be
neglected 'for the want of a few
dollars"
