FORTY-SEVENTH YEAR NO, 8. . . . f WA !S|Sj '" L s iPpE'WJv i l i v *11"HSi. 0 k The Herald’s weekly budget re­ minds we that a new generation has arisen. My first recollection of Centerville is 1806, The Methodist and Reformed Presbyterian churches had tall white cupolas, surmounted by lightning rods, with a brass baii upon It. The United Presbyterians (then Associate Reformed ( wor­ shipped in a frame building with n low belfry. Governor Orr kept a ■ dry goods store on the corner where the Columbus pike left Main Street and Dr. Stewart’s office and brick house were on the opposite comer. A blacksmith shop and a shoe shop were on the opposite corners. A wooden bridge spanned the . creek above the dam and mill race and saw mill >owned by Martin Bar­ ber. The taven came next the stables. Then J, F, Frazier’s dry goods store, Uncle Espy Mitchell’s just across the street. Samuel Nesbit’s grocery came next. Then James. ‘ Bogles’ drug store, and Dunlap’s store across the Street, and Con. Sweeny’s saloon, by the railroad, John Nesbit had a s. re north of the creek that was robbed. It was supported by .wooden posts. An auger (two-inch) was used to bore a hole through the floor through the bottom' of, a nail keg in which the money was kept. It always seemed to me that a very small hand would be necessary to get'into the larger Then the children- j,ecited. keg, and even that would not come*the psiams committed since the test- out when filled with money, [meeting and chapters from the other In the winter there was a fine [books of the Bible. This was a. pro -' skating rink above the bridge. The tracted part. Some would recite' ice men cut our great squares for storage and then the skaters would go up full speed and leap over the open space. Only the experts would venture the feat, for I heard of no one missing and going tinder. The grove school was the pride of the town. It was frame; “ the little room, middle room and big room,’ ’ with) a large play ground,' with a branch Running through the rear; The brick school house was built by the. creek, on the north side. It was not deemed wise to have the children, cross the creek for school. , The Orr school use i.ust north east of town was t teacher, whose daughter Katy later won prizes in school, occupied his own home nearer town. The freight house just across the railroad and the ticket office in it were the depot. Henry Gibney and his two boys, Dick and Jim; were the station agents. The stone quarries and lime-kilns (the McMillan, the Shroads) Were the institutions of the place. They linked Cedarville with Cincinnati, Dayton, Lebanon, Hamil- ton. ■ The old school Covenanter church was built in 1866. My uncle, Archie Foster, and my father were the pro­ moters of that enterprise. They burned a kiln of brick, secured the lot from my aunt; Betsy Turnbull, dug the foundation, hauled the lime and sand and stone for the founda­ tion and the brick and lumber and shingles and hired the masons and carpenters to do the work* I recall the first service in -it. There were no pews, Blocks of wood with planks laid on them were' the seats. The carpenter’s bench was the pulpit. It Was May, 1856, Rev. Andrew Stevenson and Rev. Willson both of New York City, con­ ducted the services* They were on their way home from Synod which met in Princeton, Ind. D r..Steven­ son preached vigorously in the morn­ ing. Dr. Willson had an ague attack that morning. But he preached. He was very pale, as I remember. That was a glad day. The friends from other churches came in and filled the house, That was the Presidential campaign year. Buchanan and Freemont, the candidates. Rev. James Milligan preached for us in August. It was very hot and many slept. In the midst of his sermon he shouted at the top of his voice: “Hurrah for Free­ mont 1 Hurrah for Freemon i Hurrah for Freemont! Hurrah for Buchan­ an! Hurrah for Buchanan! Hurrah for Buchanan!” By the time he finished all were wide awake. Then he said; “When I speak as a fool you all listen, but when I preach the gos­ pel of Cod’s Son you sleep.” In those days, more than half the time without preaching, the Coven­ anters met in their home, taking them alternatively, holding society. They were known as “ society keepers,” The leader kept worship (singing a portion of psalm, reading ft chapter from the Bible, kneeling for prayer). Then a chapter in the “ Confession o f Faith” was read, and each asked in turn for comments. Then a second man was “ employed,” Then the verse selected at the previous meet­ ing was read, the question passed alj around. Koine of (he men were gifted in making extended remarks, John Hemphill, Martin Adapts, et al. Often more than two hours were oc­ cupied tn this. Then a third w employed. Then the leader asked half the "Shorter fteieehtem,” and aome, forty o f the fifty double verses of Psalms. One recited the hook o f James Without a break. In those days “ family worship” \ was observed morning and evening. [ Sabbath day and week day," without * let or hindrance.. .

The farm home of Rufus Glass, a Karn and other ( outbuildings on the Nash road, burned to the ground at 4 o’clock Saturday morning with most of the contents at a loss of $8000, only partially insured, A defective- flue or crossed electric wires are given as the possible cause. Only a few articles of furniture, including' a player piano, two feather beds and a buffet and ta­ ble were saved. In the barn were 3' tons of threshed timothy, three tons Of oats straw and a farm wagon with other implements. Mrs. Glass arose and started the fire in the kitchen and then retired again. Later, Mr. Glass who was sleeping down stairs, was a- wakened by smoke and found fire had broken out in a closet in his, room. No fire protection was possible at the early hour. The picking system would huVe rejected Napoleon, had he come to the United Slates when he werit down to Italy and beat the Aus­ trians. He was undersized, pallid, thin and suffering from the itch. The picking system would have turned away Pope, \vhor wrote the “Essay on Man” and some other things worth while. He was such a sickly little creature that he hud to be sewed up.in a canvas jacket each morning, that he might sit up straight and write. The safest “picking system” is to allow, immigrants, in future as in the past, to be selected by their own ambition and energy. Money in the stock market was cheap last week. You cGuld bor­ row it at 4 per cent if you wanted to speculate in stocks. It cost a little more if you wanted it for some slower, duller business. The, stock market went up and down like the pulse of a nervous lady ex­ pecting a proposal. Gentlemen that are gambling (or aa they would prefer to put it, “ investing” ) don’t quite know What is going to happen with General Dawes in Paris and the Labor Party in the House of Parlia­ ment. There was some comfort for the farmers, corn and oats going to new high prices for the season. Of course, the new high price . come, as usual, after nearly all the farmers have sold their Corn and oats. REV. R. B, PATTON DIED AT HOME IN COLUMBUS 'it'l * The Rev. R. B. Patton, aged 68, for­ mer pastor in Columbus, died Friday afternoon as the result of a stroke of paralysis. Dr. Patton was once pastor of the First United Presbyterian church in that city and was. for 15 years editor of the American Issue, a weekly publics -ion, of the Anti-Saloon League. Surviving are his widow, Mrs Julia Dean Patton, a sister of Edw. Dean, and two (laughters, Mrs. F, W. Coker, wife of Prof. Coker of the O. 8. U., and Mrs. J. R. Neale, wife of Rev.

Its enemies tell you, truly, that bootleg liqrior born of prohibition is the worst ever drunk—-it blinds, poisons and kills.

Morris D. Rice,- attorney for ;hhe Osborn Removal Company,: spoke in behalf of Osborn and Bath township.- Due to the removal of that town an unusual -situation exists as to. property valuations and" What the lost are now valued at. Again it was, greatly to-Osborn’s advantage to get unimproved property .revalued be­ fore a boom strikes the town due to activity of two. contending, compan-5 ies that may erect cement, factories.' The new Wright aviation field will foe, a drawing chrd for, Osborn.as several thousand men will be employed foy the government. E, W. Burrows.of Bath' township also spoke for the revalua­ tion. R- D. Williamson, former county commissioner spoke for revaluation on the plea, that- in his opinion now was the time:-for conditions ,lot>ke4 more encouraging for the farmer and present values were about as low ,as .hey would get, P. H. Flynn, Xenia, stated that he at toe meetirig in a .Xenia business men.and himself the „ j wrier of 450 acres of farni tend and also leasing 450 acres. Besides ha was the owner of some Xenia property. Mr. Ij'lynn related some of hi3 exper­ ience on a recent trip to Europe. He took the opposite view as to future business conditions and predicted this year at least to foe one of the .worst for the farmer.- He says conditions in ■ Europe .cannot ibe settled until the reparation question is terminated .aid final settlement made. He thinks once Europe is settled this country will be flooded with goods produced by cheap labor. This means a change, in laborin'this country, and a new lower level for all values. Mr, Flynn, contrasted prices of labor and Build­ ing material now against as far back as 1910 and strongly opposed reval­ uation for that reason. J. H. Lackey, Ross township, was very emphatic in his-reasons for op­ posing revaluation. He is o f the be­ lief, that it will be some time ,yet be­ fore the farmer sees the bottom, at least another year. , • Others who spoke were W. A» Me Dorman, Rosa township, Mrs. J. O. Stewart, R. S.

How much the state received from the county, only abort $15,000 on the soldier bonus and how much the county had for administration, bridges, etc. About 48 per cent of all tax money raised goes for school pur­ poses and that most of the tax paid in vms from extra, tax levies vote-i by the different districts} schools, townships and villages: Auditor Wead also explained at some length what could be gained by revaluation, at distant markets lor better prices, or ’ this time and the power the tax.com- paWI more money -tpr better tean- j mission had as to rJering a revalua- ageiw. thin.
