Noble County Gets
1.13 Inches OF Rain

Noble county area received l.l3
inches of rainfall over the past
weekend, according to Richard
Burlingame, official weatherman
for this area. This represents al
most four times the amount
which fell for December in this
area when only 80 inches of
rain was recorded.
The rainfall was recorded
from Saturday morning to Mon
day morning. Duck Creek over
flowed its banks and many of
the lowlands were inundated
by the high waters. The drop in
temperature which followed re-
suited in ice covered fields in
practically every sector of the
county.
The Fulda Schools were dis
missed early Monday due to the
flooded conditions of some of
the secondary roads in Enoch
township.
Earlier III the month, Noble
county received .76 inches of
rain on two different days, in
Guiding some traces of snow for
a total rainfall Of l.89 inches for
the month.
1t will be recalled that Decem-
Der was the driest month here
for several years. Some of the
above rain was the result of the
water content in the snow which
fell here.

Caldwell Gas Rate
Is High But Not Thai
Hiqh, Gas Officials Say

The gas rate for Caldwell and
Noble County may be high but
it's not as high as was stated in
this publication last week ac-
cording to village officials.
The rate for Caldwell is 7O.17
cents per thousand cubic feet
according to Mayor Donald D.
Nichols and not $1.55 per thous-
and feet as previously stated.
This means that Noble Count
ians are paying the average Of
Ohioans elsewhere i'll the state.
1t will be recalled that resi-
dents in Maryland, New York,
Virginia, New Jersey, Massa-
chusetts and Connecticut are
paying anywhere from $l.4O to
$3.50 per thousand feet.

40. 900 Yards Of Earth
Move I'm Giant Landslide
Dudley Slide Is
Inspected BY
State Officials
Dirt Moves Onto USR
Il Highway (enterIine
BY Midnight, Monday

Noble county has another
landslide!
Weakened by a downpour
of 1.13 inches of rain Satur-
day and Sunday, the land
slide, four-tenths of a mile
south of the old Dudley store on
USR 2l, was first noted at 200
o'clock Monday afternoon.
BY six O'Clock that night, some
10000 yards of dirt had moved
from the hillside and practically
over the centerline of the high
way by midnight.
The gigantic slip is located on
the new stretch of USR 81 COM
pleted this past summer by the
Cheek Construction company. 1t
is about 500 feet north of the
Martin Harper home and directly
in front of the new home being
constructed by Fred Tilton.
The Noble county state high
way crew was called out Mon
day afternoon and they worked
through the night with two
cranes and bull dozer to move
the dirt off the main highway.
Officials believed that the
highway would be cleared by
Wednesday morning, if the land
slide did not gain any more
momentum.
The local highway department.
is being aided by men from
Division 10 at Marietta, in ad-
dition to a division crane, bull
dozer and three additional trucks
from Marietta headquarters.
Supt. J. E. Douglass said that
seven trucks were being used to
haul the dirt away and that some
Of il was being dumped in the
back yard of the new Tilton
home. They are also using it to
make a fill at Pine Lake, be-
tween the embankment and the
old road.
Early Tuesday morning, the
landslide was eight feet deep on
one section. of the highway and
at least 200 feet long.

$122, ,59l 1886 in 1885 to 22,2O2,-
052 in 1855. Taxpayers paid more
than $11s million in delinquent
taxes last year.
Taxes delinquent at the end of
1856 included $7,849, ,298.83 in cur
rent taxes, and $14,352, ,298.o8 for
previous years.
Real estate and public utility
taxes collected in Noble county
in 1855 amounted to $309,305.94.
Delinquent current taxes for
the year 1855 were $9,961.06. De-
linquent taxes for previous years
were $42,474.O4.
Noble county's delinquent
taxes for previous years are stag
gering when compared to the
other two counties in this dis
trict of practically the same size.
In neighboring Monroe county,
the previous delinquent tax was
listed at only $7,439.45 and in
Morgan county, only $6,242.76.
This is of course due to the
fact that delinquent lands have
been advertised each year and
eventually sold.
Auditor c. r. Atkinson has
taken the bull by the horns and
will prepare the first delinquent
publication here since 1851.

zagreb Students
Seeking Recorder

Gary, Ind. - 1t has beer
brought to my attention by
Prof. Rudolph Matz of Ia.
greb, who at the present is
located in Gary, that the stu.
dents Of music in Zagreb are
very much handicapped in
their studies due to the fact
that they do not have a "tape
recorder.
This young group of stu
dents, numbering approxi-
mately 5000, could accomp-
lish so much more in the mu-
sical field and could further
Croatian culture with the as.
sistance Of a tape recorder,
Give Whatever You Can
Therefore, l am personally
appealing to all the members
of the CFU to take part in
this cultural endeavor, for
we are all so proud of Croa-
tian culture and the singers
throughout America know
the beauty of Croatian music
which we have received from
Croatia.
At this time we are appeal
ing for donations (any a.
mount you wish to contri-
bute).
Small donations put togeth-
er will add up to a sizeable
sum which will mean a "tape
recorder" for the youth of
Zagreb who wish to study
and further the beauty of
Croatian music.
Please send your contribu-
ton to: Sylvia Niksic, 1896
Mass. ST., Gary, Indiana.
All contributions will be
listed in the "Z";; furthermore
I will personally see that this
money is used toward the
purchase of a tape recorder
and that it is sent to the
students of music in Zagreb.
