A LARGE CITY has many adj
vantages and much to offer but, to
me, it lacks the down-to-earth hui
man touch, courtesy and under
standing.
l recently spent two weeks in Los
Angeles, a beautiful, interesting me-
tropolis filled with gay life, flowers
and warm sunshine, at least there
was plenty of sunshine while was
there. Many of its wonders were be-
yond my comprehension, and yet,
amid all of this 1 recognized frustra-
ton and unhappiness in the faces of
many of its people.
Often I heard the expression that
Los Angeles was the melting pot"
of the nation. Perhaps that accounts
for the many exotic people I saw.
Life in Los Angeles, I suppose, is
comparable to life in any large city,
but it seems that it has more people
than its natives care to admit. Taxes
are terrific and houses are extremely
scarce. Prices are inflated and tenn
pers are short.
AS in most large cities, everyone
seems to be in hurry. The streets
are filled with cars rushing in every
direction. Many never bother to stop
after collision if the drivers can
get away-maybe because they are
afraid or because they do not care
what is left behind. The sounds of
sirens are common and easily for
gotten.

Quiinby's Making
New Bran Bread

A new bread product from
Quimby's Holsum Bakery in
Uhrichsville hit the breadstands
last Friday, it was announced
today by William Quimby, gen.
eral manager of the Quimby
Bakery.
Mell-O-Bran, a mixture of
Kellogg's All Bran and white
bread dough, is a special formula
developed by the Kellogg Co.
and Quimby's Bakery. Besides
being a new taste thrill, the
bread has a low sugar content
and low calories content per
slice.
The bread was originated in
Detroit one and a half years ago,
by the Schafer Bakery. 1t is a
popular seller in Michigan, ac-
cording to Quimby.
Quimby's will distribute $3.50
loaves of the new bread daily in
its 50-mile territory in and
around TuscaraWas Co., Quimby
said, which includes Caldwell
and Noble county.

Two Accidents In
Area Are Reported

Two accidents were reported
in this area Saturday, which in
volved four persons and sent one
to st. Francis hospital, Cam
bridge, for emergency treatment.
Elmer c. Grimes of Jackson
vile, Fla, received hospital
treatment for abrasfons on the
right hip and shoulder suffered
at 8:l5 p. m Saturday when a
tractor-trailer he was operating
ran off the right side of the high
way and overturned on U. S.
Route q, just over the Noble
county line near Pleasant City.
An automobile driven by
James D. Teters of Caldwell,
travelling north on route 81,
stopped to make a left turn onto
route $40 and was struck in the
rear by a machine operated by
Steve ]. Macenko of Ava route
/. The latter was treated at the
scene for head decorations.
Macenko was arrested for
reckless operation and was fined
S. and costs by Mayor Orville
Schafer, Belle Valley.

Denver Mckee Will
Head Sunshine Feed

Denver Mckee, we'll known re-
sident of Maple Heights, has
been named manager of the Sun
shine Feed store in Caldwell to
fill the vacancy created by the
resignation of Virgil Moore
Moore, who has been connect
ed with this store for the past Is
years, ten of which he served as
manager, is returning to active
management of his farm in the
Ava community.
Moore plans to increase his
dairy herd on the farm. In ad-
dition he has accepted the agency
for Rite-way mixers and Dem
ing pumps.
Denver Mckee was affiliated
with the Sunshine Feed store
from 194l to 1914, when Moore
served in the Armed forces. He
also served as manager one of
these years.
He has been with the company
for the past two years and is well
qualified to take over the man
agement, effective Jan. 2, 1852.

Taft Is Speaker
Continued from page one)

Rep. Philpot pointed out that
Mr.. Taft was an outstanding re-
ligiouS leader in the state and
had received the highest honor
ever bestowed on a layman when
he was named president of the
Ohio Council of Churches.
Mr.. Taft spoke briefly to the
$50 stockholders, directors and
friends of the First National
bank, after being delayed for
approximately one hour by
weather conditions.
Taft said that he left Nc
ConnelsVille for GAINESVILLE and
came to Caldwell Tuesday morn
ing but was delayed by a blind
ing snoWstorm, which was worse
in that area than the immediate
vicinity of Caldwell.
The prominent Cincinnati re-
ligious layman spoke on infla-
ton and the little effort which
the government made over a
period of nine months to stop it.
He pointed out that reducing
credit makes it more difficult to
borrow money with which to buy
goods but it was many months
before the government could see
this. Instead they came all out
for price control, which did little
to stop initiation.
The learning economics in the
schools was stressed by Mr.. Taft
as being very important in the
future education of any child.
He pointed out that education be-
gins when you graduate from
school and that it doesn't really
end there, although the term
commencement is usually ap-
piled.
He stated that the students
really are only receiving the
tools to begin their real educa-
ton when they leave school and
not until much later do they
learn the theory of education.
In closing, Mr.. Taft said that
the unique dinner meeting for
stockholders and directors of the
First National bank was a very
important step in human rela-
tions and he knew of no other
similar meeting
Mr.. Taft's talk was well re-
ceived by the largest number
who have attended this meeting
in several years.
Directors of the bank were re-
named for the following year and
include: A. l.. Schafer, H. F.
Cant, E. D. Parks, A. M. Secrest,
H. F Thompson, Byron Schafer
and D L. Harkins.
A. L. Schafer was renamed as
president of the bank and H. F.
Cant, vice president. Donald l..
Harkins is the cashier and How
ard F. Gill, assistant cashier.
Mrs. Doris Rich and Miss
Leoba Hupp are the bookkeepers.

Demonstration News
Dear HOmemaker.

Dear Homemaker:
Comes a New Year and we all
make resolutions, don't we? Well,
one of my resolutions is that of
trying to have a weekly column.
(Wonder if I'll live up to thatD
AS you probably know, I had
a very nice vacation in Florida
during the holidays. The sun
shine there was wonderful, but
you know even the snow is nice
here!
Perhaps you would like to
| know just what we have been
doing lately. On Thursday, Jan.
3rd we held the first county wide
Gaming meeting. Thirty one wom-
en- were there with q chairs Gall
without seatsD. You can see we
worked hard on them! The
second of these meetings will be
held on Thursday, Jan. 10 at the
Dexter City church basement.
On Friday, January 4th, the
Caldwell and Olive homemakers
met at the home of Mrs. Paul
Clark for the first in series of
upholstery meetings. They will
meet again on January 9th at
Mrs. Clark's home.
On Friday of this week; jan
uary 18th, the Home Demonstra-
ton Council will meet at the
Juvenile Court room at 1:30 p.
m. It would be nice to have a
representative of each group pre-
sent. This makes good and wise
decisions possible.
Here is the schedule for next
week:
Tuesday, Jan. IS - Caldwell
and Olive Reupholstery III meet
ing
Wednesday, Jan. 16 - Dexter
City reupholstery meeting.
Thursday, Jan. II - Mt. Zion
Groom for Health" meeting.
Friday, Jan. l8 - Countrywide
leader training meeting on Gro
oming for Health" II meeting.
We would like to have 2 women
from each home demonstration
group present. This will be at
the home of Mrs. Paul Clark.
On the evening of January IT,
at 800 p. m. at the Batesville
high school, we will hold a "Mow
Show Night" This is a meeting
held in cooperation with the
Ohio Power. The men will dis
cuss grassland farming and the
women will have a demonstra-
ton on how to use the foods pro-
duced on the farm in new ways.
All of you are invited to attend.
I believe this brings us up to
date. | will be seeing you at
some of our meetings.

Chickens Prefer
w arm, Dry House

No one-not even a chicken
likes to live in a wet, cold house,
says Emil Malinovsky, extension
poultry at Ohio State Univer-
sity.
1t is especially important that
poultry men cater to likes and
dislikes of their birds at this
particular time for two reasons:
Egg prices are likely to drop be-
cause more eggs from late-hatch-
ed pullets are going to market
and cold snaps" can cause pull
lets to stop laying if housing
conditions are not good.
Malinovsky describes a house
that hens will like. Walls are
tight. The ceiling, at least, is
insulated. Ventilation is good. In
such a house, water will not
freeze unless outside tempera-
lures are extremely low.
Electrical water warmers will
help keep water at an optimum
temperature of so degrees.
Warm, wet mash is a stimulant
to increased production but
Malinovsky calls it "a nuisance
in cold weather" Feeding pellets
will stimulate protein intake
and increase egg production.
Lights also increase egg pro-
ductfon. Hens need a day about
IA hours long with the extra
hours added by turning lights on
in the morning.

Village Council
Continued from Page One)

by the village street and main
tenance crews.
Bills were allowed including
those resulting from the recent
case, Rutherford VS.. village of
Caldwell.
Mayor johnson directed the
finance committee to contact
Auditor C. B. Long in the in
terest of securing the villages
share of the sales tax distribu-
ton. Clerk Morgareidge noted
that in 1850 the village received
a sum of $1,56131, but last year
the village failed to share in the
distribution. 1t is expected that
Auditor Long will reimburse the
village their share for 1851 and
likewise provide the means for
it to share in the 1852 distribu-
ton.
The council voted to delay
action on the proposed request
made by w. B. Marshall, in be-
half of the village school district,
to rescind that portion of the
village amusement ordinance
which affects school activities.
The traffic and parking pro-
blems were discussed at length.
Council requested Mayor John
son to- contact Division Engineer
Max Farley of Marietta and ar
range to have traffic engineer
from the state highway depart
ment make a study of the local
problems and submit recon-
mendations.
Mayor johnson was also in
structed to purchase new park
ing signs and designate their To-
cation where existing ordinances
are now effective. Police Office
Fred Davis will then be duty
bound to enforce traffic and
parking laws where violations
are apparent.

larger amounts of chlorine, or at
a chemical pressure roughly pro-
portionate to the inverse of
their ionization numbers.
Gaseous ammonia appears to
promote the union of organic
matter and chlorine, 1t appears
that chlorine can destroEmM
ganic matter through the
nection with ammonia at +
er chemical pressure than would
be required without ammonia.
Up to the level of increasing
chemical pressure at which am
monia sets off the reaction,
chlorine appears to be loosely
connected to ammonia in a form
generally called anime" This
connection occurr over wide
range of concentrations between
ammonia and chlorine in which
it is conceived that ammonia
may assume single, double, or
triple phases in the resulting
combinations. All these combin-
ations may be present, and often
are present, simultaneously.
Oxidizable organic matter will
be attacked by the chlorine
through the ammonia phase that
yields first to the chemical pres
sure of the chlorine. Ammonia
appears to be destroyed in the
reaction but only the form TAX
ing active part is destroyed.
Other forms do not appear to be
effected, until chemical pres
sures of the gases are just right
to meet conditions imposed by
the ammonia "hook- ups" next in
line. After the organic matter is
destroyed, chlorine combines
with the remaining ammonia, to
an extent believed to be limited
by the ionization constant of the
latter gas. Any chlorine exceed
ing the ammonia requirement
will appear as free chlorine.
Thus it is proper to say that
chlorine in water supplies may
appear in any one, several, or
all of the enumerated forms at
the same time, and very import
ant to remember that all of these
various demands for chlorine
must be- satisfied before effec-
tive sterilizing action can take
place.

Food Is Cheap
Despite High
Cost OF Living
People Are Eating
More Today Than
They Did In 1899

Food, compared to incomes,
has been cheaper during the past
two years than ever before ex-
cept during the World War II
period.
In terms of income, food is
20 percent cheaper today than
it was before the war. Econo-
mists points out that these facts
are of added significance at pre-
sent because statistics show cost
of living is at a record high. Un-
less income is considered at the
same time that costs are attract
ing interest, the economic picture
is incomplete.
While cost of living is 10 per-
cent more than it was in June,
1850, average income is at least
IL percent higher. Most incomes
are more than II percent higher.
More than rs percent of the ma
tion'S workers, such as white
collar workers." have received
little or no income increases.
These people are the ones caught
in the economic squeeze"
Many workers, however, have
had pay increases that more
than offset increased cost of
living These wage increases
have helped keep the average
high despite little or no increases
on the part of other workers.
People are eating about 13
percent more food than they did
during the 1859 period-and
it's better quality. If people did
not eat anymore than they ate
before World War II, they would
be spending 18 to 19 percent of
today's income for nourishment.
Actually they are spending 26
percent of their income for food
today.

Noble High In
Coal Production
$50. .496 Tons
In Three Months

Noble county was one of the
leading producers of coal in the
state of Ohio during the months
of July, August and September,
according to the state depart
ment of Industrial Relations.
Ohio produced 8,612,555 tons
of coal during this period. The
division reported that 59.8 per-
cent of the tonnage was taken
from strip mines. Of the five
mines producing 250,00O tons or
more, three were strip mines
with combined production of
1900, 100 tons.
Belmont county, the states
biggest coal producer, accounted
for 2,308,982 tons. 1t was follow
ed by Harrison county with
l,386,270 tons and jefferson
county with 1,22O,546 tons.
Noble county was listed as
producing 380,496 tons for $685.
210. Other county breakdowns in
this area included: Meigs, with
l05,9l9 tons for $320,005; Musk
ingum with 301 1888 tons for
$8l9,908 and Washington with
32,853 tons for $83,959.
The division also reports that
Of the SOB producing mines re-
porting, III operators indicated
no production. The production
was 2,519,952 tons for July;
3,097,877 tons for August and
2,994,725 tons for September.
Coal mining brought in $32,-

Chlorine Is An Important Factor
In Meeting Safety Requirements

Editors note-To acquaint
city water users of the import
ance of chlorinating water, K. w.
Riley, Marietta bacteriologist,
has consented to write a series
of articles noting the effects
such an installation will have
on a system comparable to the
Caldwell WaterWorkS. Riley
makes monthly tests of the local
water supply as we'll as other
community systems)
Chlorine assumes several
forms in water when it is applied
as disinfecting agent. 1t COM
bines chemically with water to
form hypochlorous acid. 1t re-
acts with organic matter or other
substances in water, and under
certain conditions will destroy
them, and finally, it is in solu-
ton as the gaseous element.
Chlorine is progressively and
steadily active with water to
form hypochlorous acid at rate
proportionate to; it is believed;
the ionization constant of water.
Hypochlorous acid diSintegrates,
almost as soon as it is formed, to
release nascent oxygen and to-
form hydrochloric acid which, in
turn, is neutralized by the car
Donate or any metals present.
Part of the sterilizing effect of
chlorine is believed to be deriv-
ed from the naScent oxygen
released during this reaction.
Under the conditions prevail
ing in the average water tank or
pipe line, a small amount of
chlorine is usually dissipated, or
destroyed, in a matter of few
days, because of this reaction.
Temperatures in the fifties and
sixties, Fahsenheit, appear to
speed up this reaction. In sun
light it may be complete in
few minutes. Bright sunshine is
believed to be responsible for
the dissipation of as much as one
part per million of chlorine in
swimming pools in period of a
few hours.
Sufficient chlorine should be
applied to satisfy the hypochlo-
rous acid reaction in water con-
tinuously over a period of at
least twenty four hours in order
to guarantee that a SteriliZing
dose of the gas will be present in
the water for that period of time.
Certain gases and organic mat
ter in solution impose an addi-
tional demand for chlorine which
must also be satisfied before a
sterilizing action of chlorine
can be shown. These conditions
and their relationships can be
described about as follows:
Chlorine is excess of the
amount required to satisfy the
ionization constant of water re-
mains in solution in the water
an dappears: when tested for; as
free chlorine. If, however, or
ganic matter and certain gases,
! such as hydrogen sulphide, are
present in the water the chlor-
inc will combine with and des-
troy them as soon as the chemi-
cal pressure of increasing
amounts of chlorine becomes
equivalent to the chemical pres
sure of the organic matter in in
verse ratio to the ionization con-
Stant or the substance.
Hydrogen sulphide is easily
ionized and rapidly destroyed by
the low chemical pressure set up
by small amounts of chlorine.
The slightly ionized organic mat
ter commonly found in water
(such as the coloring matter in
water from peat bogs) on the
other hand, may yield only to

starting new terms.
State law limits the number
of days which a trustee may be
paid. For townships with bud
get of $4,000 or less, a trustee
may collect up to 100 days year.
For townships in the next high
er bracket, he may be paid 125
days and in the highest, $50 days.
However, a check at the office
of Auditor Long, reveals that all
the townships in this county are
in the class of $4,000 or less and
trustees here can collect up to
100 days a year.
Other new laws affecting
townships are:
H. B. 267 provides $500,000 ad-
ditional road funds for townships
annually to be distributed ac-
cording to road mileage on the
township system which is kept
open and maintained for public
use. Each townshihp must GER
tify its mileage to the state high
way director by October l of
each year. These funds will pro-
vide slightly more than $1,000
per mile additional revenue.
S. B. 239 increased from 5000
to $400 the maximum road con-
tract that can be let without ad-
vertising for bids. 1t also increas-
ed from $1,000 to $4,000 per mile
maximum estimated construc-
ton cost that can be undertaken
by force account without adver-
tiSing for bids. If the estimate ex-
ceeds this figure, bids must be
sought. If the trustees then de-
eide they can do the work cheap
er by force account, they may re-
ject the bids and proceed to do
the work. Rural police protection
was made possible by H. B. 1862
and S. B. IA which provide for
the appointment Of police con-
stables by township trustees and
compensation Of them out of the
township general fund.

Penny Card Now Cost
2 Cents, The 5Oth 12c

The new postal rates went
into effect at midnight Dec. 81
and with it came the new
"tuppenny" postcard which will
cost you 2 cents in the future.
Incidental to the new rate is
the charge for so or more cards.
The postoffice charges an addi-
tfonal 10 percent for quantities of
SO or more. You can buy 40 cards
for SO cents but so will cost a
dollar and ten cents. This makes
the 50th card cost II cents! Our
advice is to buy quantities of 49
or less.
