JUDGE TOM ID. STAHL

of Ottawa County common pleas court, is one of
northwestern Ohios best known jurists.
During his brief tenure on the bench here, Judge
Stah already has host of enthusiastic supporters
some of whom beginning to whoop it up for the
judge to become candidate for the Court of Appeals
when the next vacancy in 1852. Judge Stahl
doesn't encourage this kind of talk yet is worthwhile
noting that he isn't exactly closing the door to the pos
sbilities.
Judge Stahl's appointment to the pleas
bench here by Governor Lausche in October 1949, and
his subsequent election for the unexped term Of the
late Judge William Hunt ending Feb 9, 1855, must have
been of considerable pride for his mother
she observed her following the pattern established
by an lluStrious father.
Judge Stahl was elected by margin of 1000 votes
which is considered all the remarkable in view of
off year election and the fact that fewer persons for
varied reasons vote the judicial ballot.
The Judges father, the late Scott Stahl, served
common pleas judge here from 1909 to 1914 when Ot-

rs it is closest to the present form
used in Port Clinton.
Under the general plan, the
mayor, seven councilmen, clerk
(auditor), solicitor and treasurer
are elected. Four councilmen
are elected by wards and three
from the city at-large. Appointed

The federal plan is much the
same excepting that only five
councilmen are needed.
If the charter form is desired,
Is commissioners will be elected
and they will determine which
charter would be used-within a
years time. Their decision would
be presented to the voters for ac-
Ceptance or rejection.
Under the city manager plan,
five councilmen would be elected
for four-year terms. They would
appoint the city manager, clerk
auditor, treasurer and solicitor.
Three commissioners would govern
the city if the commission plan
should be selected.

Within two hours after the death

from the comp4ny's readiness to

fact that Miami is the Home Office.
This makes it possible for claim

ASK PARKING HELP

Mayor Peter c. Mccormack today asked the help of motorists in keep ing streets clear wherever there are totem poles when tourist boats are here. Many tourists, he pointed out, like to stand back in the street and take pictures of the totems and this is difficult when automobiles are parked in the way.
 Motorists cooperation on this is entirely voluntary, Mccormack said, as there is no way to enforce park ing regulation in this case.

Recommend Forest
 Land Withdrawal

Juneau-The Regional Forester announces that a full block of Forest Service residence tracts, 55 lots in all, on the Tongass High way south of Ketchikan has been recommended for elimination from the National Forest to allow of their entry and patent.
 Most of the tracts are -presenly occupied by Forest Service permit tees who have 90 day prior right to apply for entry and patent of the tracts they occupy, but some of the lots are still vacant and after elimination can be made avail able to settlers under appropriate public land laws by the Bureau of Land Management, Interior Depart ment.
 This is departure from the usual procedure. The General prac- tiee has been to eliminate individ- ual tracts of a block at the time each settler qualities for a patent. Hundreds of homaite tracts have been patented in that manner.
 Regional Forester, B. Frank Heintzleman, stated: "The trans ferring to the public domain of an entire block of lots which have been laid out by the Forest Service, and having the Interior Department handle all of the ettlement work, is expected to simplify land patenting by settlers. If it work out in this case as expected, the thought is to use this procedure quite gener- ally in dealing with National For est areas adjacent to Alaska towns which are needed for community expansion.

HISTORY OF THE
CHRISTMAS SEAL SALE

On December z, 1907, Emily
Bissell of Wilmington, Delaware
sold the first Christmas Seals in
the United States. The goal foi
that first sale was $500; she raised
instead $4,000.
Einar Holboell, a Danish postal
clerk, originated the idea of a
Christmas seal in 1910 to raise
money for a sanitorium for tuber-
culosis children in Denmark.
Jacob Riis wrote the story about
the Danish Seal and his article
was an inspiration for Miss Bissell.
And so it has gone ever since.
The pennies spent for Christmas
Seals have adden up to make the
dollars which have helped to re-
duce the TB death rate by 80
percent. The important thing is
that millions of people unite every
year to fight tuberculosis by buy
ing the Christmas Seals bearing
