NASHVILLE, TENN. - The
face of Christ with his disciples at
the last supper, as depicted by
Leonardo da Vinci, is said to be the
saddest face in all history. A new
Interpretation of that face is being
seen by thousands of visitors to the
newly consecrated Upper Room,
Chapel here. :
The chapel, built in connection
with the new headquarters building
for The Upper Room, the worlds
most widely used devotional guide,
features a great woodcarving of
Leonardo da Vinci's Last Supper.
Hailed as a work of art with
breath-taking beauty, it is hoped
that it will inspire visitors to bridge
the centuries and at least for few
minutes of meditation and prayer
commune with Christ as he said:
This is my body which is broken
for you" The chapel is open daily
for prayer and meditation.

False Fire Alarm

Two false fire alarms plagued Bluff
toms volunteer fire fighters during
the past week, one on Saturday and
the second one on Sunday during the
days first shower and electrical
storm which preceded the later del
uge.
The Saturday call was phoned by
resident in the neighborhood near
the Bluffton Stone Quarry when a
dense black smoke rolled up from
the quarry property indicating that
oil was ablaze. Fire fighters arriv-
ing on the scene discovered that it
was an oil fire, but an intentional
burning we'll under control.
The oil had come from a leak in
the Ohio Pipeline which crosses the
quarry property. After the leak had
been repaired, workmen for the pipe
line company burned the waste oil to
dispose of it.
The Sunday alarm was the second
in recent months to be set off freak
ishly by a bolt of lightning. The
alarm sounded simultaneously with
a loud clap of thunder and lightning
flash which startled the town. Fire
men rushing to the phones were told
that the alarm had not been sounded

Wheat Harvest
Expected To Begin
Here About Thurs.
Prolonged Heat Wave
Responsible For Early
Ripening OF Crop

Combining of wheat will be under
way in the Bluffton district shortly
after midweek, weather conditions
permitting, an earlier harvest thar
usual, because of the hot, dry wealth
er which prevailed throughout the
month of June.
Reports from farms in the vicinity
indicate that only rain will keep
farmers away from wheat harvest,
ing beginning about Thursday and
by the end of the week combines
will be busy on nearly every farm
in the area. .......
Early ripening of the crop for the
second consecutive year to large
extent is the result of a prolonged
assault of heat throughout the en-
tire month of June, with the temper
ature regularly hitting in the nine
ties. Unusually warm weather dur
ing May also helped bring wheat
along faster than usual.
During the last seven days, end
ing with Sunday, according to Dis

holder, the thermometer broke into
the nineties on five days. On the

because of the fellowship between
postal employees.
When Gene Benroth of the local

with his automobile, but he also has
made arrangements for a friend,
Paul Newcomer, of the same town
to be here with his ancient Buick
roadster.
Both cars are in first class con-
dition, with glistening coats of paint,
one red and the other tan. Shiny
brass fittings with WHICH the cars
are literally decorated, all a resplend-
ent touch to the appearance of the
old-time motor vehicles.

Three-Inch Rain

Choked by the flood water, the

away the three-inch volume as it
fell. As a consequence streets were
flooded where water bubbled up and
