John zaIeha Barn
DESTROYED BY Fire

The John Zaleha barn, located
on the Hiramsburg road, near
Belle Valley, was destroyed by
fire, early Saturday morning,
when it was struck by lightning,
during a local several electrical
storm.
Although a number of neigh
bors from that community and
Belle Valley rushed to the scene
of the fire, very little of value
was saved. The barn contained
approximately 80 tons of hay.
The electrical storm struck
Noble county shortly after mid
night, Friday, but no widespread
damage was reported.

tember 8 and from 1:30 p. m,
to 1000 p. m, Sunday Sep
tember 9. An appropriate
souvenir will be given to all
those who attend.
Rounding out his 30th. ami
versary as a funeral director,
Founder Theo. Murphy has COM
bined all the facilities required
in a modern memorial service in
one building to secure greatest
efficiency and flexibility.
The main floor contains the
service and family rooms, parlor,
restrooms, ladies powder room,
a large casket selection room and
preparation room. Adjoining in
the rear is large three car gar
age. This makes possible the
loading of the casket coach and
family cars in the privacy of the
garage. Private living quarters
are provided in the floor above.
The modern chapel is noted
for its beauty and simplicity. The
Murphy funeral home has pur-
chased new Hammond organ
and this will be used for the
services.
During the formal opening,
Saturday and Sunday, Mrs. J. K,
Walkenshaw will be at the con-
sole of the new organ.
1t was in February, 1921, that
Mr.. T. T. Murphy first started
in as a funeral director for this
county. He was then located in
Maple Heights.
Four years later in 1925, he
purchased the Earl Barnett
furniture store in Caldwell, COM
bining the funeral home and
store He has since been located
on Main street. The new addition
to the Murphy furniture store
was constructed in 1886.

The committee meeting
with the fair board Wednes-
day evening, included Mrs.
G.. T. Jennings, Mrs. H. G.
Richcreek, Clarence Carter
of Sarahsville and c. J. Es-
tadt. Rev. Walter Brown is
also a member of this committee
but was unable to attend due
to a previously scheduled meet
ing.
The committe" presented their
case. stressing the need of me-
mortal park in Noble courtv for
the children and youth of this
area. They are interested in
securing approximately three
acres of the Playground, near the
north gate and adjacent to the
approach to the cattle barns.
During the meeting. the fair
board adopted the following re-
solution. relative to the project:
at was moved by o. J. Lorenz
that the Noble County Agricul-
tural Society consider the pro-
position presented by group of
citizens relative to establishing
a park on the Noble county fair
grounds, provided it is agreeable
with the county commissioners
and the county engineer"
This action was necessary since
the county engineer uses some
of this land for storage purposes,
etc.. as per a written agreement
with the fair board. In return,
the county engineer maintains
tho fais ground. slags the roads
keeps the weeds moved down,
etc.
The committee plans to meet
again with the county commits
sioners and engineer and it is
expected that suitable arrange
ment can be made.
1t will then be necessary to
have the bond issue approved by
the state tax commission before
it is placed on the ballot this
fall for the approval of the peo-
pie thru-out the county.
The proposed memorial park
would serve as such, honoring
those who gave their life that
we at home might enjoy the free
dom and comforts of our great
nation.
1t would serve as living tri-
butte to these men and women
the first of its kind ever pro-
posed in this county.
The park would include nice
recreation grounds, to be used
as a playground and for picnics
and family gatherings, in addi-
tion to a shelter house, swimmine
pool and dressing rooms. II
would result in an ideal recrea-
ton center for the entire county
and would always be at their
disposal.

Caldwell Booster
Club Opens Drive
Seven Directors
Will Be Named

The seventh annual Booster
club membership for Caldwell
and community opens today, ac-
cording to statement released
by John T. Kirchner, secretary
and treasurer of the club.
Secretary Kirchner said that
this year they are attempting to
elect the board of directors by
mail, and he urged one and all
when sending in the fee of $1.00
to also vote and mail in the bal
lot. Balloting will be for five
from the general membership,
one from the faculty of Caldwell
high school and one from the
Caldwell board of education.
The duties of the newly elect
ed directors will include the
preparation and selling of foot
ball programs for home games,
planning and sponsoring the an
nual football banquet and pro-
viding funds for the use of the
band and athletic department.
The Caldwell Booster club
was formed with the purpose of
providing funds for local athle-
tics, which the local board can
not furnish. The Booster club in
the past has been of great help
financially to the athletic board
and the promotion of better
athletics in the community.
This year should be no excep-
ton and tits hoped that all new
and old members will return
their membership fee, as well as
the marked ballot for the seven
directors.
Lee Myers is now serving as
president of the Caldwell Boost
er club.

commissioners to appropriate
funds for another reappraisal
of the county's real estate.
O'Neill acted on behalf OF
the state board of tax appeals
The petition charges no appraisal
has been made in Noble since
l943. The law requires appraisals
every six years.
1t is of course we'll known to
everyone in Noble county that
such an appraisal was held in
this county two years ago but not
recognized by the state board of
tax appeals, since they said the
valuation was listed much too
low. They are really asking for a
more equalization of property
values in this county.
1t will be remembered that the
tax board held up the rates of
taxation for this county for
several weeks but finally allow
ed it and the tax collection was
started after two months delay.
Even then the state tax board
said the valuation was much too
low.
In the petition filed at Colum-
bus, the commissioners are
charged with refusing to obey
an order of the board of tax ap-
peals to make the appraisal and
to furnish County Auditor Jack
Wilson with $4,000 for the job.
The board of tax appeals
claimed Noble county's current
real estate tax duplicate of
$7,377, ,420 does not represent the
true value of the property. 1t was
reduced during the depression
from $10,700,420 in 1929. The
court action is against Commits
sioners Charles H. Rayner, May
wood Love and w. c. Toad Davis.
The commissioners have con-
sistently refused to appropriate
the money and have no inten-
tions of so doing, until ordered
by the court.
