PARADISE EASY TO FIND, RIGHT HERE IN INDIANA Heavenly Name Borne by Tiny Village; Now Has Paved Highway. r.’i r V’ ** BOONVILLE, Ind . Oct. 10—The road to Pnradi r e is paved. Windin<? over the oiling farmlands in the Ohio River valley, the road takes motorists through Paradise—a community of approximately 50 persons. Only a modest sign designates the community which was settled in 1326 by Maynard Castle and his son. Elihue, and Paradise is enriched by the traditions of the family. John and Cal Castle, greatgrandsons of the early settler, and their father, William Castle, now are leading members of the community. Remark Gave Name It was from the doorway of William Castle’s grocery 50 years ago that George B. Quigley, Newburgh newspaper man, looked out upon the terrain and said, ‘This is just like Paradise ” His utterance ended a search by residents of the community for a name for their newly acquired postofliee. The grocery and postoffice, located at the intersection of the Nrwburgh-Boonville road and the Old Grove road which wanders out from Evansville, vanished with the advent of automobiles and improved highways. But the name Paradise has remained. just as most of the early families still are represented in the community. Tradition About Returning Oace you breathe the air of Paradise. you will always come back, no matter how far you roam, they say. 'Look at William T. Ltjfis, unofficial Paradise mayor," said Carl Castle. "He is as spry as can be and he Is up in the 80's. Every summer he goes to Wisconsin and every winter to Florida. But he always comes back to Paradise.” Crime and saloons are negligible In Paradise. Carl reports that his father purchased a little triangle of land opposite his place at the crossroads to prevent its becoming the location of a, saloon. John Castle keeps the plot landscaped.
