History
The weekly Courier, founded in Auburn in 1871, established a daily edition, The Daily Courier, in 1894. This newspaper merged with the Auburn Dispatch (formed 1874) to become The Evening Star in 1913.
The merged paper remained locally owned until 1968, when it was purchased by Nixon Newspapers of Wabash, Indiana. Kendallville Publishing Company, owners of the Kendallville News-Sun in adjoining Noble County, bought The Evening Star in December 1971. KPC added a Sunday edition on March 12, 2000, and converted the daily paper to morning publication seven days a week on April 6, 2009, shortening its name to The Star.

Description
A naked woman kneels by the water; one foot is in the water, one foot is on the land. Above her head a star shines out. In each hand she holds a jug. From one jug she pours a liquid into the water. From the other jug she pours a liquid onto the land. In other, older decks, a woman (or sometimes even a man) is simply looking and sometimes gesturing at a large star in the sky.
