_NOBLE COUNTY EARLY HISTORY J. 0. MeNutt Writes Entertainly of The Sixties in Neble County and School - Accommodations Warrens, Wis,, Nov. 8 1925 Hditor of the Ligonier Banner, I am sending you this write up which I thought you might want to print that your subscribers can see the difference bhetween the present time and sixty-six years ago. In the fall of 1859 the families of Frederick Wantz, Geo. Vance, John and -Mike Aker and Mary McNutt all relatives left Prible county Ohio in 13 covered wagons and one buggy and drove several head of cows for Noble county and landed on the Jacob Vance farm on the hen peck corner.. There my mother bought 2 acres of land from her brother Jacob Vance and the neighbors built her a log houge. It is here on these corners I want to let your readers know what kind of a 'school house we went to. It was a log school house 20x28 7 feet between tloor and ceiling and had 3 windows on each side, a black board on the north end and a door or the South end on the east and west sides from the North end for about 16 feet there was 2 inch auger holes bored into the logs and pins drove into the holes and a wide plained board nailed on the 2 inch pins and this was our writing desk and our seats werg 2xlo plank with ‘auger holes and pins drove in for legs the same length as our desks. We had some of the same make ot stools but shorter for those that did not write.. The stove was a box cast iron one and stood about the center of the room. The winter of 1860 there was 30 boys and 15 girls- went to this school and Milten Hostetter was the teacher and there was nienteen dif ferent families that had children ir that school namely, Miller, Ramsby, Height, Price, Bunger, Geo. Vance Jerry Chidister, W. Chridister, Teiford, Peerman, Bowser, Crowford, Mc Nut, Jacob Vance, Aker Yoder Gar rett, Morrill, Long and neot one o. those Scholars wore glasses. I know the young people- today will say i couldn’t “‘be done but it was doné ant if any of those are living they wil tell you it is true. John . Mcßridc | taught the same school the neéxt win ter and the summer 1861. They buil. a new frame school house with twq rows of seats each side with seat anc lesk for two pupils, and the nextwo winters Jane Wolf taught and th

first day of Sept. 1863, Geo. Vance anc lamily and Elisbeth Strang and famil; Mary McNutt and family and D, 1T Rockert and Robinson Hosteter' lef den Peck in two covered wagon: e drawn by horses the- other b; yxen and with some cows started fo Jackson county, Wisconsin and land ed in Jackson county Oct. 1 1863 a dis tanc:g of 400 miles. Last August 192 my Dbrother left St. Joseph Me., at yelock by airplane and landed heri in Warrens Wisconsin at 2 o’cloc) and they had to go down in lowa twe hours on account of rain or he woul have made the trip in five hours. A: it was he ate his breakfast at hom« and his dinner with me and went- 40 miles. So you see there has ' bee: zreat changes since we left Prebl county Chio. The young peoplc lont’ realize the changes people o my age have seen and gone througl by going into a new country. If yo print this and there is any of my ol school matés reads it I would like to hear from them and please send mc . copy of your paner. @ : \ Yours respectfully : ; J.. 0. McNut. :

Vast Store of Neciar That Is Unproductive ~ Aplculture, or bee-keeping, is one of the few branches of agriculture that does not tend to exhaust the soil. The account with the f\oney- crop therefore does not include the usual item, “‘cost of fertilizc =" says a revort in the New York Times. e The nectar produced in the flowers is vasied unless gathered by bees or similir insects. It has been conservative!y estimated that not over onetenth of all the nectar produced in the United States is actually harvested. The amount that goes to waste in a& dozen counties near New York city is over 1,500,000 pounds. The study of the honeysbee and beekeeping methods is becoming more popular, and to satisfy those desirous of knowing more about this subject short courses are being offered in several of the leading schools and colleges, among them Columbia university. - Many people living in the suburbs cannot go in for poultry raising, gardening, ete., because .of lack of space. For them a few b_jflves of bees should afford an interesting and remunerative enterprise.

World Illuminated by Spread of the Bible A man from Corea arrived recently in London with his two sons. He could not speak a word of English, but he showed an address inside a little Bible and was guided to the Bible house, in Queen Victoria street. Then he poured out a heap of money on a table and pointed to his two sons. When an interpreter was found, writes a London correspondent of the Christian Science Monitor, the man related how he knew of nothing else in England but the place which had sent his Bible to him in Corea, and he had come there with hig sons because he wanted them to be educated as Christians. In the windows of the Bible house are Bibles which show the link with little peoples and great peoples all over the world.. Because of this work, the Bible, or parts of the Bible, are printed in 572 languages today. By reason of such efforts the Gospel has been published in a fresh language every six weeks for the last ten years. . New Mechanical Marvel Cigars have been sorted by hand aeccording {o color. The process was slow, expensive and inaccurate. To eliminate the hand-sorter a machine was invented and is now in use. It recognizes 32 shades of brown in the cigar wrappers, puts each by itself and does. it‘ all at a rate better than one a second. Some of the principles of radio and photography are used, but the description is too technical for us laymen. The machine is called a triumph of science. Most of us could not understand how it distinguishes such fine shades, when the average eye cannot do it. :

* The machine i§ another development in mechanical invention. Like the linotype, it displays an “intelligence” almost beyond belief. Fetrhaps i? the inventors keep working they eventually will create a machine with “superhuman intelligence” that can be placed behind the automobile steering wheels and prevent some of the grade-cross-ing accidents.—New Orleans Item, . Sunlight and Health We now know that health and wellbeing are directly dependent on the sun through acting through the medilum of the sunbeams sent dewn to earth. There is something more essential in the sun than the glowing splendors of the sunrise and sunset, the brightness of the day and its mental effect of creating hope, joy. It has the power of stimulating growth and building up resistance. It is one of the best medicines that God has given to man. S The ultra-violet rays, those invisible waves of light which the camera only can see, are the life-giving, health-cre-ating element of sunlight. They are that part of the sunshine that helps to prevent rickets, a disease all too common in nursing infants. e Rich but Unhealthy The climate of British Honduras is hot, moist and generally unhealthy for foreigners. The coast Is, as a rule low and swampy and a large part of the interior is covered with forests vielding large quantities of mahogany and logwood. Over 50,000 acres are under cultivation and yield fruits, rubber, coffee, ‘etc. The oolony is administered by a governor, and has an executive and legislative council, United States gold currency was adopted as legal tender in 1894. The majority of the population is composed of negroes, mulattoes and Indians.

- No Blare of Trumpets With the opera flourishing, and the names of prima donna figuring in all the .papers, it is interesting to recall the modest announcement which heralded the first appearance of such a lady on the British stage. It appeared in 1692, and ran as follows: “The Italian lady, jusi come over sea, who is so famous for her singing, will perform.” No more than that, not a word about her palaces, her jewels, her pets, or her differences with other gifted ladies. No mention even of her name. : ¢ | - Must Make Opportunity Time and tide, the adage says, wait for no man ; neither does anything else that nowadays is run on schedule. The great struggle of modern life is to make connection witn opportunity, for this makes possible success.—Grit. CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SOCIETY Services in Weir Block. : ‘Sunday school 9:45 A, M.
