CITY DIRECTORY
CITY OF ANGOLA
This page is dedicated to the City of Angola, Indiana, and the following are some of the principal ordinances, rules and requests of said City:
STREETS-Do not deposit any ashes, rubbish or garbage of any kind in the streets or alleys. Keep your sidewalks free from mud and snow. If your sidewalks are too low, the city will furnish the dirt or gravel to raise them to the proper level. Make your application to the Marshal for this dirt or gravel. See that the storm water from your property gets into the storm sewer with- out damaging the street.
PARKING-Park between the painted lines in the business district, wherever such lines may be. Don't park closer to any fire hydrant than ten feet. Don't park within twelve feet of the curb, in front of the Court House; Kemmerling's store to Braun's market; Williamson's hardware to McKillen's tobacco store; Burt's jewlery store to Lepird's shoe store. Always park on the right hand side of the street and as near the curb as possible, except as above mentioned.
LIGHTS-Always keep lights burning after dark, on the paved streets, out- side the ornamental lighted district. You will be liable for damages if your car is collided with on such streets, if your lights are not lighted. The state law, regarding motor driven vehicles, applies in the City of Angola, and there is no other speed regulation than such law. Look out for autos on your right at all times. Drive slowly in the business district, and near the public school- houses. Drive slowly. Safety first.
BICYCLE ORDINANCE-Don't ride bicycles on the sidewalk on any street in the city.
FIRE-Stop sprinkling, or using the water in any amount, when the fire whistle blows, as the fire department needs the water for your protection and that of your neighbor. Give the fire department the right of way at all times; do not drive ahead of the department, and do not drive at an excessive speed following them. The safety of the general public is of more importance than that you should be the first at the fire.
CHICKEN ORDINANCE-All fowls of any nature must be kept enclosed on the owner's property; this applies to small chickens as well as large as ones. Keep your chicken yards and coops clean and sanitary.
GARBAGE-Dispose of your garbage in a sanitary way. In the business district, get a garbage can, and have the same emptied often.
WATER-The City is now furnishing water, and collects the water rent quarterly. Notice of the amount due the city is sent to every water user quart- erly and should be paid before ten days after receiving the statement, at the Steuben County State Bank. Failing to pay this rent thirty days after the receipt of said notice, your water will be turned off and an extra charge will be made for turning it on. You must get a permit, from the City Council, be- fore tapping the water mains, and always employ a good first-class plumber. If your meter needs repairing, call the city clerk, at the clerk's office, and if your water connections need repairing call a good plumber.
SEWER-Cleaning out sewers costs the city much each year, owing to the carelessness of some people. Do not throw heavy paper, cloth, or anything else in the sewer that will obstruct it. You must make application to the city clerk, for permission to tap any sewer.
LOADS-Hauling heavy loads, when the streets are in a soft or muddy condition, is prohibited by an ordinance.
Keep your yards, streets and alleys clean and sanitary, and help make Angola a clean, beautiful city, and a place to be proud of.

TRI-STATE COLLEGE
At a meeting of the citizens of Angola held July 23, 1883, an association was formed for the establishment of a Normal College. The following officers were elected: President, Hugh D. Wood, M. D .; Vice President, L. A. Hendry; Secretary, W. W. Ferrier; Treasurer, Lawrence Gates; Trustees, Orville Carver, Orville Goodale, L. A. Hendry, J. S. Draper and L. R. Will- iams. Six acres of land were purchased and a substantial new building was erected on what is now called College Hill.
The school was formally opened June 17, 1884, with 36 students in attend- ance. The dedicatory address was made by J. N. Olcott of Indianapolis. The first commencement was held May 20, 1885.
Prof. C. E. Kircher was chosen first President. Some of the first teachers in the college were Prof. Hartman, Bart Bigler, Prof. Scare, Prof. Creel, Adelie Sheffer, Mrs. Wert, Allie Cline (now Mrs. Corey), Princess Clark, Alice Porter, Mrs. L. M. Sniff, Prof. Crane and others.
Prof. L. M. Sniff became President in 1885. The school grew steadily un- til in 1887 the yearly enrollment amounted to nearly 1,000. A new and com- modious building was built in 1887, at which time the school was owned by L. M. Sniff, President; L. W. Fairfield, Vice President; W. O. Bailey, Sec- retary; W. J. Kinney, Treasurer; and I. A. Melendy. The college continued under this management until 1902, when Professors C. C. Sherrard and G. G. Niehous became members of the Board of Directors. In 1909 Professors W. A. Fox and F. M. Starr, and in 1913 Prof. Burton Handy were elected to membership. The acting members today of the Board of Directors are C. C. Sherrard, President; W. A. Fox, Vice President; W. O. Bailey, Secretary; F. M. Starr, Treasurer. Prof. W. A. Fox is at the head of the Normal De- partment, Prof. G. G. Neihous, Dean Engineering Department, Prof. C. C. Sherrard at the head of the Chemistry Department, and Prof. Burton Handy at the head of the Commercial Department. Some few changes have been made in the membership of the Board of Directors during these many years, the most notable being the death of President L. M. Sniff, Sept. 14, 1922.
Many expensive and valuable additions have been made in recent years, notably the Engineering Building, Machine Shops, Physical and Chemical Laboratories and Equipments, sufficient to accommodate several hundred students.
The leading departments in the college today are Civil, Mechanical, Elec- trical and Chemical Engineering; the Normal Department, Commercial De- partment and Department of Music under Prof. A. G. Harshman, and the De- partment of Law under Doak R. Best.
The Normal, Engineering and other departments have furnished educa- tional advantages to thousands of young men and women, many of whom are now holding places of honor and trust in various parts of the United States and foreign countries.
At the present time there are students enrolled from 45 states and 25 for- eign countries.

The Chief Ideal of the College
There are thousands of young men of ability who have passed the age of the high school who feel justified in the conclusion that they ought to have a chance to study engineering without a long four-year high school course. They feel that they have education in life in the way of successful experience that should be some guarantee that they could succeed in engineering if some school would give them a chance. This school does.
