Ohio Top Investor
In State Parks

Ohio invested more money for
state parks and park facilities during
1853 than any other inland state in
the nation.
This was revealed recently in
statistics released by the National
Parks Service. According to this
authentic report, the Buckeye state
was surpassed only by the intensely
populated ocean bordering states of
New York, New Jersey and Cali
fornia, all of which have developed
ocean beach facilities.
The report also stated that Ohio
ranked fourth in the number of per-
sons using state parks during the
above year. According to V. w
Flickinger, chief of the Ohio Division
of Parks, records show total oil
9,621,583 visitations at Ohio's state
parks during the fiscal year 1953-54
1t is anticipated that this figure will
be raised above 100000 dur
ing the current year, which is in ex-
cess of a national trend of an ap'

HiLtys Encounter Heat,
Hail And HOppers On Tour

The summers drought has been so
severe in the southern part of the
corn belt that in places one drives
for miles seeing cornfelds "only half
as high as man, and SO burnt that
they look as if a torch had been
passed over them."
This is the sorry state of the coun-
tryside through which they passed as
described in recent letter from the
Herman Hilty family of Bluffton,
now touring the west enroute to the
coast.
In the letter written to relatives,
Mrs. Hilty said that farm ponds and
wells are drying up. In Versailles,
H., where they stopped for a visit
they found that relatives were
sprinkling their turkeys and chickens
every hour to keep them from dying
of the heat.
What the heat hasn't taken in parts
of the desolate area, the grasshop-
pers have. Mrs. Hilty said they saw
i cornfelds cleaned off to the bare
stalks by the insects.
"At the Paul Hiltys, we saw peach
stones hanging on the trees. The
grasshoppers had eaten the green
peaches right off," the letter stated.
The family was pleased to reach
Denver and the cooler temperatures
of the mountains. But even here they
found the elements more unkindly
than in their native Ohio. They ran
smack into one of the worst hail
storms Denver has ever known.
"We had gone to the mountains

Not Necessary To Get Food Processing
Permits For Socials, Prosecutor Rules

The time honored practice of Bluff
ton organizations holding Saturday
night ice cream socials and church
suppers may continue without the ex-
ira complications and expense of OBJ
tanning county food processing per-
mits, County Prosecutor Anthony j.
Bowers has ruled.
The prosecutor sent an opinion to
DR.. Gail E. Miller, health director of
the City of Lima and Allen county,
stating:
at is my opinion that where
meals are served only once or twice
year, particularly churches and
oranges, they are not kept, main
tanned, advertised, or held out to the
public to be places where meals are
served for a consideration, and,
therefore, should not fall within the
Food Services Operation Law"
The question of compelling church
es, oranges and private clubs to OBJ
tain food processing licenses came to
head last March. At that time DR.
Miller requested the prosecutor to
move against the Allen County
Sportsmen's and Farmers Protective
Assn. The sportsmen's group held q
fish fry without getting the permit
after being told by DR.. Miller the
fish fry could not be held unless the
club first got a permit for the Spen'
cerville Community House. The per,
mits are issued for specific premises
not for organizations.
DR.. Miller maintained the Lima
Allen County Health District had tc
collect 81 annual fee for churches
and S25 year for all other place:
where food for sale to the public was
cooked or utensils were cleaned.

Herman especially for the trip, suf-
fered from the hail storm.
The little window above the stove
was gone (even the aluminium frame
was dented and twisted by the i'm
pact of the ice pellets.l The side of
the trailer toward the wind looks as
if it has small pox.
The Bluffton family, especially the
four children, found the mountains
about Denver thrilling. They made
snowballs at an altitude of two miles.
They're keeping notes on the trip so
they'll be able to remember all of ii

Ter which has been nullified by the
current ruling of the county prosecu-
tor.
The prosecutor gave his opinion
following an opinion by the attorney
general who said that the food serv-
ice law does not apply to place
(which is never held out as place
where meals or lunches will be served
to others (the general public.)" That
excludes restaurants maintained for
a specific group, such as club, church
or grange members or employees of
a specific company.
Bowers decided that also exempt
are churches or oranges which serve
suppers or sell box suppers to the
public on infrequent occasions.
