ST. NICHOLAS

The traditions of Christmas are
many. Some can be traced, but
most are lost in the dim receSses
of history.
The story of st. Nicholas, patron
saint of children, is one rooted in
fact. A man named Nicholas was
born in Asia Minor back in the
9Th or 10th century, the son of a
wealthy bishop and q charitable
mother. When his parents died, Nj
cholas gave away everything his
parents left him. After his death
he was named as the patron saint
of children whom he particularly
loved.
The Key West citizen., 1954-12-24

There are two Christmas Islands.
One is an isolated atoll in the In
dian Ocean. The other Is . low
lying atoll in the Pacific Ocean.

Deadline Looms
For Dog Licenses

At the Community Market where
dog licenses fdr both Hancock and
Allen counties hre on sale, Mr.. and
Mrs. Claude Ram were anticipating
the usual lasd minute demand for
the tags as TIE deadline approaches
Wednesday of next week on January
20.
Mrs. Ream said that sales up until
this time have been about normal
with the big rush due to start this
week end and dog owners in both
counties arousekto the fact that there
are only a few more days left until
their pets will be fair game for the
dog warden.

900 tags are usually sold and in

BRIDGES RETURNS
Continued from page u

after her resignation as village clerk
continues in the Office, and Bernice
Huber is treasurer.
Action was taken to set the official
meeting nights of council on the first
and third Thursday EVENINGS of each
month as has been the custom in the
past.
Mayor Triplehorn asked permission
of council to use thd town hall for
conducting his Mayors Court instead
of holding court and maintaining an
office in his home as did his predeces-
sor. Permission was granted.
Former Mayor Anderson rendered
his resignation last month to become
effective January I despite the fact
he had been reelected for another
two-year term. Reason given for the
action was that he would in effect be-
taking a salary opt in 1854 despite
the fact that council voted to increase
the mayors salary $3.50 a year to g
total of $3.50.
Anderson said that he had beer
receiving as much as $1,000 annually
from court costs In state eases, most
ly highway traffic violations. This
income would be discontinued under &
new law which provides that court
costs in such cases must be turned
over to the village treasury.

Officers 10 Confer
On Filing Of Charge
In Sheppard Staying
By he Associated Pre.s

CLEVELAND. July 29.Cuya-
hoga County law ornces today
planned i meeting to decide their
next step in the case Of the
brutal staying Of q Bay Village
socialite.
Since July 4, when 31-year-old
Marilyn Sheppard was found
dead. in her blood-soaked bed,
police have been unable to come
up with enough evidence to
charge anyone with the crime.
But today the chief law enforce
ment officials of Cleveland and
the swank suburb have a meeting
scheduled with County Prose-
cutor Frank T. Cullitan.
We're going to decide whether
present findings justify an ar
rest" cleveland Police Chief
Frank w. Story said yesterday.
He said it was his personal opin-
ion they don't. However. final
decision on the filing of charges
rests with the prosecutor.
Husband Questioned.
The victims husband, DR..
Samuel Sheppard. prominent
30-year-old osteopath, has been
undergoing most of the police
questioning-much of it bearing
on his relationship with a pretty
laboratory technician who used
to work with him in Bay View
Hospital.
The woman, Miss Susan
Hayes, "a. who came here vol
unfairly from California to tes-
tify. yesterday was quoted by
officials as saying she and the
doctor carried on a romance
earlier this year, and for some
time past.
Mr.. Cullitan, in going over a
signed statement Miss Hayes
gave police, told newsmen the
hospital technician had reported
intimacies in addition" to the
ones last March during a visit
DR.. Sheppard made to Califor-
mia. Mr.. Cullitan did not say
when the others occurred.
Her story conflicts with the
one DR.. Sheppard gave at a
coroner's inquest into the killing
| of his wife. He said their rela-
tionship was casual.
The prosecutor also said gifts
4 Miss Hayes reported receiving
includede a gold signet ring. a
suide jacket and wrist watch.
