lightning Destroys
Born on Carroll
Form Nedr Redwood

An old barn on the farm of
Brady Carroll, one-half mile
south of Redwood, was destroyed
by lightning during a severe
electrical and rain storm which
struck the north end OF Union
county early Tuesday.
The barn was burned complete
ly to the ground after lightning
hit it at 5 a. m. A large amount
of hay and straw was lost, but all
save one of a large number of
hogs got out without harm.
The Redwood Fire department
was called and prevented the
flames from spreading to other
buildings, but could not get there
in time to save the barn which
had been struck. Mr.. Carroll said
the loss is covered by insurance.
A farmer living in the Rich
wood neighborhood said a rain
gauge on his farm showed nearly
one inch of precipitation during
the storm.

He will probably be replaced
by Bob Cheney, who is a plenty
willing performer but lacks
Rush's weight and experience,
Coach Fetter said.
Another problem which the
Redwood mentor has is lack of
replacements. With Rush injured
and Cheney starting, Mr.. Fet-
ter said he has only five boys
left whom he regards as apt to
break into Fridays game with
Marysville.
They are Artie Fields, back;
Ed finch, end; Jack Hamilton,

Junior Fair Winners Announced
Formers Can Help Stop Thefts'
Watch for Suspicious Vehicles, Sheriff Urges

Belief that the sheep rustlers
who have been operating in cen
trail Ohio are part of a wellzor-
ganized band of criminals was
strengthened this week when
they struck again in nearby
Chmpaign county.
The rustlers swooped down on
the farm of Roy Kent, near Min
go, not far from the Union
Champaign county line, and made
off with 80 head of sheep. Mr..
Kent is a brother of Harold Kent,
widely-known Allen township
farm leader.
This sheep theft took place
sometime Monday night or early
Tuesday, and followed very close
ly the methods used a few weeks
ago when thieves took As head
of sheep from T. B. Roahen in
York township.

Eighty-fiVe pints of blood were
obtained by the Red Cross blood
mobile unit on its visit to Ma

One disappointed volunteer
was Fritz Welsch, the German
exchange student living with
Chris Boerger. Red Cross rules
require that donors under 81

or legal guardian. Fritz has neith-
er one here-nor in Germany, he
says but arrangements are GO
ing to be made for him to have
satisfactory permit at the next
time of donation.
The Is who were rejected de-
serve the same credit as the ac-
tual donors, for they had every
intention of giving their pint of
blood to the Red Cross. They are:

proof that an inhalator is need
ed. The new device is the latest
word in inhalators, according to
Chief Payne, and is the same
type that is so widely used in
larger cities such as Columbus.
The departments old inhalator
will be used as supplementary
equipment.
One of the best features of the
new inhalator, according to MIR.
Payne, is a stop valve that ar
rests the flow of oxygen from the
tank as the victim exhales. This
means that there is a constant
flow of oxygen as the victim in
hales, but there is no escape or
waste of oxygen as breath is ex-
pired.
The inhalator has a rubber

Her Department in MorysvilZe Schools

The home economics depart
ment of Marysville high school is
going to be expanded under the
direction of Miss Arlene Ullery,
new teacher in that department.
Some of the new features of the
course will include special train
ing with aluminium metal, toy
construction, child care, home
management and home building.
Another feature of the course
that is causing much interest
among the students is one pre-
pairing the student for marriage.

Judge Cameron's Family
History Parallels County's

Dolbear, and rode his fathers
horses after school.
Since his father was an attorn-
ey, and, having been virtually
raised in a law office, it semed
very natural for Judge Cemeron
to enroll in the University of
Michigan law school in 1891. At
ter obtaining the LIB degree, he
returned to Marysville and in
1894 he began practicing law
with his father.
AS the judge explained:
I'VE practiced law together un-
til was elected to the State Sen
ate in 1908. After serving in the
senate l returned to go back into
partnership in my fathers law
office again. We remained work
ing together until his death"
He talked to me for a while
about his class at college and the
reunions that he attends every
five years, where he and his
friends chuckle together about
their school days.
We talked about his activities
in the church, one of the great
motivating forces of his life. He
says, simply:
my participation in the Pres
byerian church has been quite an
active one. / have been an elder
in the church since 1914 and have
occupied the position of vice
moderator of the Presbyterian
senate of Ohio, and trustee of the
Marion Presbytery for many
years.
"My twenty-five years of SER
vice as trustee of Wooster college
has been one of the greatest
pleasures of my life. / saw it de-
velop and grow"
Mr.. Cameron became Common
Pleas judge in 1919 and served
until 1924, then returned to pri-
vate practice, part of the time
with his son. William. In 1887 he
was returned to the Common
Pleas bench by the voters of the
county and remained until 1943.
"The history of Union county
has always greatly interested me,
the Judge added, partly because
the life of my grandfather and
myself cover the entire period of
the existance of the county. 1t is

The home management section
will deal more specifically with
the routine problem of house
keeping.
Many Special Projects
Special projects, such as MAX
ing draperies for one of the rooms
in the school, constructing toys
for the children and making
aluminium trays for gifts at
Christmas time, will be introduc-
ed from time to time.
The junior and senior groups
will, for the most part, have a
free hand in the planning of their
home economic activities for the
year, while the younger girls will
make a background study of
home management and develop
ment.

way said, "as if the rustling is
being done by a nationwide
crime outfit with a front to sell
the livestock they have stolen"
The Sheriff has been investi-
eating the theft on Ben Roahen's
farm ever since it happened, and
has uncovered many important
facts. He has been working as
closely as possible with state
authorities and officials in other
counties.
But more is required than for
two or three sheriffs to work on
the case" he added. I'VE believe

Several Similar Points

Several Similar Points
After checking with Sheriff
Jay McKeever in Urbana, Sheriff
Walter T. Galloway said there
were several things which linked
the two thefts, as we'll as other
big sheep hauls which have taken
place in central Ohio over a per-
iod of several months.
After the theft of 80 head of
sheep was reported the sheep
thieves struck again in Clark
county last night, only two days
after the last theft.
Very little is known about the
Clark county theft as yet, accord
ing to Sheriff Galloway. The
known facts to date are that the
theft occurred in the southwest
corner of Clark county, and that,
the stock was whisked away in
the same efficient manner as the
others.

at is my belief that, since most
girls spend most of their lives in
the home, they should enter the
task as well trained as possible"
Miss Ullery declares.
Learning TO Can
Acting on that theory, the girls
are now learning to can tomatos
and grape jelly, and will soon
embark on many other projects
pertaining to home-making.
During the section on child
care, Miss Ullery plans to have
child in the classroom for the
girls to observe while the child
is bathed, dressed, and otherwise
cared for by the mother. This
will give the girls some practical
experience with the problems of
handling children.
