production of Hurricane Smith.
He has come up with a 10th
century tale of the South Seas
which implies that the area Is
everything Joseph Conrad, a
much better writer, said.
The story opens in an Austral-
ian port where Ireland. Tucker
and a. few pals are wondering how
to outfit a ship they have seized
from an unconscionable slave
trader. Before they can get bored
with waiting, up steps James
Craig to charter the craft for
what he describes as a scientific
expedition. This sounds OK. to
Ireland since Craig has the
money and, even better, Miss De
Carlo as a puzzling member of
his scientific expedition.
It turns out that what Craig
really is up to is finding half a
million dollars in buried treasure
which happens, by the oldest OF
circumstances, to have been buried
by Ireland himself. This leads
naturally, to one blank of battle

Christmas Currents
Need More Caution
teOnInuea from nrst pagel


For outdoor lighting, DO use
weatherproof fixtures. All parts
should be waterproof and heavy
enough to stand ice and swaying
in the wind. Use heaVy-duty exten-
sion cords. DON'T use the regular
indoor small strings Of lights. They
wear easily and could shOrt-circuit
from dampness, causing fire in
your favorite evergreen. Outdoor
outlets should be in WeatherprOOf
boxes, so built that sockets hang
down so water runs off, not in.
Following the same weatherproof
precautions for outdoor spOtlights

so they don't rest on wet earth or
in snow.
Indoors, DO check all light
strings for frayed cords, bulbs, or
poor connections. DON'T let the
bulbs rest against anything COM
bustible. DO place the tree close
to a wall outlet and avoid running
extension cords under rugs, where
people will walk, or along lodges
where they might touch curtains,
or hot radiators.
Another safety hint, if Santa
leaves Juniors electric train un-
der the Christmas tree, don't con-
meet it there. Any metal decorations
falling on the track could short
circuit the set-up, cause sparks,
and possibly a fire.

BridgeviIle Kiwanis
Hear Grassmyer

The regular meeting Of the
.BridgeVille KiWanis Club was held
on Monday night, December /, 1852,
with John F. Doordan, President,
presiding.
Mr.. A. +. Grassmyer, a member
of tie faculty at the Greenwood
High School, gave a talk and
showed movies of his tour of Eu-
rope which he made in 1850 Mr..
.Grassmyer stated that the very
heavy population in the country Of
Holland, where he spent large
part of his time, made it necessary
for them to intensively farm large
areas Of land which are reclaimed
by the Government, and after 4
years Of preparation, it is rented
to farmers in parcels Of %, so and
rs acre farms. Cash rent paid to
the Government was $25 per acre
per year. However, even though
the rent is high, the low lands are
very productive and the farmers
secure excellent yield. During his
tour, he worked for a period of
time in one of the work camps
which are sponsored by civic
groups and Government organiza-
tions. These camps give employ
ment to displaced persons and
persons who would otherwise be
on the relief rolls In his opinion,
such camps are proving quite sue
cessful.
Announcement was made Of the
Christmas party for the. Club to be
held on December Is which will be
Ladies Night. Each member drew
name and will buy a humorous
gift for that person.
/ Mr.. DoOrdan stated. that the Club
would again jointly sponsor San
ia Claus Day" in Bridgeville as has
been the custom during the past

Highway Study Committee
Recommends State Routes
Revert To Ottawa County

If recommendations of the High
way Study Committee are adopted,
a number of state routes will be
given back to Ottawa County, it
was learned recently.
The study committee, an arm
of the Ohio Program Commission,
has recommended that state Rts.
584, south of the Portage River:
500, running north and south thru
the center of the county; the east
Catawba Road, and state routes
on South Bass island be given back
to the county
County Engineer Delos Nissen
said if the recommendations are
carried out it will provide an ad-
ditional burden on county funds,
inasmuch as no provision is made
for maintenance money.
Mr.. Nissen attended meeting
of the Ohio Association of County
Engineers in Columbus where the
problem was thoroughly discussed.
The study committee has recon.
mended that secondary" state
highways all over Ohio be turned
over for county operation.
1t is expected that the problem
will be dumped in the lap of the
legislature when it convenes after
Jan. 5.
