The Baptist church was built o f logs, on E. Cedar street, in 1830, their cemetery is south-east o f Cedarville. A part o f this building 3tands today and. is used by the colored people. The first Sabbath School was organized, in this building in 1&36, hjlisa Priscella McFarland wm the first: teacher. Following the building of- this church, was the building o f the United Presbyterian the same year. The Re­ formed Churches came into existence at a later date. The first school house in the town­ ship was built 1800, of logs on the Townsley farm, (now Herman Stor­ mont’s) and was taught by James Townsley, " In 1812 the second school house in 4ho township was built where S, Limestone street, Springfield, crosses 'E, Main street, Xenia, the Creswell corner, Lancelot Jenkin was the first teacher. The first school house in the village was a hewn log structure built in 1833, on W, Cedar* st., Mrs. Gamble was teacher, later the “Union school- house" as it was called was built in 1866, where now stands the old build-* ing on Xenia Ave. The first, factory, if it could be call­ ed such, was established in 1834 by 'Urich Jefferies, ‘the industry was cabinet nrnkmg and was started with nothing but a hand-lathe. .In time machinery and horse-power were added and the plant was moved west of toWh and known as “Jefferies Town/’ Janies and Mason Jefferies became partners in the .plant. The Jefferies came originally from North J Carolina, belonging to one o f tho Indian tribes tliat were later moved to j Indian Territory (now Oklahoma). ebs pays for itself T h e cost o f Frigidaire is insignificant in com ­ parison with the benefits it gives.

The Exchange Bank OMo Some of, our best “antique” furnituve twas made by these- splendid work'smen and many of our families have beautiful pieces that have come into our possession, which We prize from their shop. About 1835 the first Post- office was opened , the first post­ master Being ■John Paris, a great*! temperance man. Besides being post­ master he was the .first shoe maker *and kept dry-goods, did watch and ! clock repairing, all in the same room. | During the ten years, he was pest- j master,.the wail was brought once a fweek, in saddle-bags, from Xenia. |After this they had, a daily mail Carried by stage which ^operated'be* |tween Cincinnati and Columbus. * In •3df>0 the railroad was completed and { two mails Were received daily. 1 Just a few brief points in history, that will interest the members of Cedar Cliff Chapter: James Townsley, grand-father o f Mrs. Morton, Mrs. Hamman and Mrs. Davis, was the first white boy born In (Cedarville) township. Sallie McCoy (Mrs. Innis Townsley) our grand-mother, was the first white girl^ bom in^ (Cedarville) trfwnship. James McCoy built first frame house, clapboards, and it was considered an aristocratic dwelling as wan the farm house built by John Orr in 1834, Grandfather 6f Mrs. AnnaTWilson. Memory js busy as we review the pictures ns they are before us, of the old homes which, radialid gracious hospitality, the. old stores where the genial store keepers sold their mares, the town pump which furnished cool­ ing draughts for man and beast, the path that led from our orchard to the Big Spring, the old foot-bridge at the mill, which we loved to cross, we might ennumerate a score or more things, but time does not permit. This abbreviated review is brought to you of the early history of Cedar­ ville that it may keep' with us grate ful memories of the splendid service rendered by our forefathers, the pioneers of this county, the benefits of which have come down to- us the members of Cedar.Cliff Chapter of the Daughters of the American Re­ volution. . (Mrs. Charles H.) EVA BARBER ERVIN and kitchen, in manat construction. Just as iii the old WJGM3ABIN days, the table is not la the living room, The newer Apartments have a Break­ fast Nook in the Utahan, where the morning snack la eaten while the necktie is adjusted and the nose re­ ceives its final touches, But some of the large, so-called “swell" upraf- ments rent as high as $20,000 a year. A guess is haezarded that it would require $100,000 a year to run such an establishment It looks as if we of the common people will have to crowd into ever smaller quarters, not because such is wishes, but pushed there because of mounting rents. Also, ail go to work, not exactly ALL, but nearly all. The- catchy song—“Everybody works but father” really means .the rest of .the family has to work. And it is neces­ sary to keep from going oh the rocks, As would be expected, home-life is disappearing. The Apartment is just a place to sleep in. Much o f the food (including its dyspepsia) Is bought at the Delicatessen's. Life is just one grand rush in crowded cars to get to business on time in the morning, and. a tighter jam to get home in the evening. Then, eat a bit, dress, and- go out. The quarters are something of the CABIN style, but the OLD LOG-CABIN had superior advantages, For when the horses were turned out in the *pasture fob the night, this dishes washed, and the baby was fast asleep in its. crib, as nature composed itself (o rest, John and Mary would sit on the steps and talk over the ’ day. Birds on the top limb pruned their feathers. The Whipporwill song was clear and sweet as it camq up out of the woods. The owl on the old dead tree in the field, would open his big eyes, stretch his. leg and wing, and. hoot in exstacy at the gathering dark­ ness, Finally John and Mary would go inland have Family Worship, com­ mencing their little babe and them­ selves to God’s gracious care for the uiglit. But “ The City LOG-CABIN"! The .screech and roar and honk and cars and trucks and.Voices and loud-speak­ ers and everything,d 0 . not die down until about 1 A. M»» and by 3 or 4 the milk-wagon and ice-wagon clatter about, and presently the City wakes ,up with a jump and is off again, Half Century ago, a nun who had been raised quite buck, wishing to ,'nke an early train,*Stopped at a hotel ay the railroad. Narrating his ex­ perience he said, "The roar of the u’aitss^rushitig through disturbed me greatly, I couldn’t sleep.- I raised on one elbow, • Then 1 sat up. Do you know; I could hear those trains when they came into the State, and would hear them till they went out!" That’s New York, until you get so used to it that, metaphorically speak­ ing, you could sleep in a-boiler fac­ tory. But however big-nhd piled up, arid squeezed in, and though you hove to tighten your belt another notch and run to keep up, there is something lovable about “Little 'Old New York," and which the genial Editor of the Herald may allow the liiidersigned'to write about at some other time, F.
