4. you will notice that the Wesleyan parsonage is no longer standing, as the firemen burned it down Saturday. Years ago the Beaver Creek school house was built there and it was told to me the reason they called the school and church ’Beaver Creek'. It was because the beavers cut so many trees down. Then later the names were changed to Stringtown, as so many houses had been built along that road which is now known as State Road 4. How many remember when Road 4 was built? I remember well as we let the road crew park their equipment at our place and we sold a large hill to them which they used to fill in where needed. I even gave them a chicken dinner one day so they would bulldoze two big trees out for us so we could build more chicken coops. Yes, I well remember when they built Road 4 and we didn't have to eat dirt anymore when we drove into North Liberty . Sunday morning March 18. at the morning worship service at the Pine Creek Church, the Marshall County Men of Music will be participating in the worship hour, so plan now to attend. Remember Friday and Saturday will be Recycle Days at the North Liberty Elementary School. 3:00 to 5:30 p.m. on Friday and 9:00 a.m. to 2.00 p.m. on Saturday. The Jr.-Sr. Youth of the Church of Christ are helping out this time, so please take your papers, plastic and glass and help out with this project. Potato Creek State Park was a busy place Sunday, as so many took advantage of the 70 degree temperature and went walking, bicycling, visiting the nature center and enjoying the video shown in the new auditorium on all kinds of birds. Many are reporting seeing robins in their yards now. Many will remember Roy and Marv Reamsnyder. It is reported

that Roy is a patient in the Memorial Hospital. Please remember them. Martha McCrosky and Edith Rupel spent Sunday in Indianapolis where they enjoyed a grand buffet dinner and the Beef and Boards Dinner Theater followed with the show ”Hello Dolly” which was very entertaining along with some other hit songs. They went with American Dream Tours and the bus was full. Adam and Sherry Mann of Bremen entertained Sunday evening with a birthday dinner in honor of their daughter. Katie who was celebrating her birthday along with Ted Woolet who was also having a birthday. Others present were Ted's wife. Cindy and sons. Jack and Shirley Norris and daughter. Jackie and Lola Pavey. Martha McCrosky entertained the following friends in her home Monday afternoon, Iva Pommert, Pearl Newcomb, Mae McDaniel. Gladys Sheneman and her sister, Francis Slattery. Lovely refreshments were served and the next get together will be the first Monday in April at Mae McDaniels. Dinner guest Friday of Lola Pavey was Rev. Phil and Sue Engelman and family of Chicago. Mrs. Engelman is the daughter of James Gardner of Florida. Others present were Jack and Shirley Norris and Jackie Norris. How many of you can remember when your news reporter use to write the Stringtown News? Then Nellie Smith continued to write them. That was 30 some years ago. Just want to tell you North Liberty friends that we sure are enjoying your Florida weather. In fact, it was warmer here Monday than down there as we had 79 degrees and you only had 76 degrees, so the weatherman said. How about that?
