‘Mrs. Music’.. (Continued from Page Oh 6)

Art; 17, she began teaching sdhoiol at Hepiticwx but When* teaching school made it difficult to continue teaching music, Oona gave up school and returned ifco advanced study of music. She borrowed| a pony from neighbors and rode 12 miles to study organ with professor Daniel Hahn. At this point the voices of (three of hep finsit pupils were heard; Mrs. Maude Weyigand, Mrs. Charles Kline ,anid Mrs. Waldo Eipply. Next came the voice of Jesse Stockman, Cora’s childhood sweetheart who lived on the north 80 of her grandfather's farm. Jesse Stuckman owned a driving horse (and faithfully drove Cora to Bourbon for her music lessons. They were married on Christmas day, 1900, and in 1905 moved (to Nappanee and Cora enrolled in a four year course with the Sherwood School of Music in Chicago fto obtain a scholarship and become (a branch teacher. At this poiftt a clipping from the Advance-News flashed on the screen, i LONG TRIP ON MILK TRAIN I Biaby pictures of Arlene, the first daughter, were next shown. When Arlene wias 12. Cora began (taking her to South Bend for cello lessons. This was another hard trip for the sake of music; taking the milk trlain at 6 a. m. to LaPaz junction, boarding the Vandalia train to South Bend and returning on the 6 p. m. train. Never one to waAe time, Cora studied herself under Prof. Elbel who had been to Europe, while Arlene took her j cello lessons. A letter was feed (from the Professor, who is stall living. A second daughter, Anna Lou, now Mrs. Woodrow Robertson of Syracuse, spoke at this point. Illness of' Cora’s grandchildren', Dave Srtquder and Linda Robertson, prevented them from taking part a planned, WROTE TO SERVICEMEN Then Devon Hossler and “Hook” Stuckman appeared to thank Oona for her correspondence with Nlappatnee servicemen during World War 11, and more clippings from Advance-News from Cora’s servicemen’s scrapbook were flashed on the screen. Her Sunday school work was also brought out and her contribution to weddings, funerals and all church programs. A picture of the girls choir and the old church that burped down was shown and the dedication in 1949 of the first electric organ for the church was recalled by a picture of the program. Asa climax, Cora played the first song she ever learned, “O Music Sweet Music, Thou’ Art ;My Heart’s Delight” which ha® been the theme of her life. She was presented with a silver ; bracelet, made up at Newcomers, with the names of tier two grandchildren' , Dave and Linda, and great-grandson, Davey Jr. and the .years of their birth. A tape reTcOrdmg of the evening’s program was also presented to her. When Mr. Meeks called upon all former pupils of Cora Stuckman to Stand, about half of the large audience rose in tribute to “Mns. Music.” The term ‘dolomite’ Is applied to both a rock, and to a mineral.

Argos frets Dial Phones; Nap’nee Dials In 1960 Argos telephone exchange made the switch to dial phones at 2:30 Saturday, according to LaiMlar Stoops, Who is manager of both the Nappanee And Argos telephone offices. ‘Twin Oaks is the prefix to Argos and five numbers are now needed" to call anyone In Argos. 'Nappanee'® tentative schedule to switch to dial telephones is 1960, Mr. Stoops states. This telephone exchange has been changed and modernized three .times since 1920 when the old crank magneto system Was taken out. So there is not any present necessity to make the Switch as there is some small phone exchanges which were still operating on the old crank system, “Our manual board now has everything on it except dialling,” Mr. Stoops adds. “Automatic ringing, automatic operator listening, line recall and partyldne selective ringing.” . Timing calls with a stop watch, he has found manual calls as fast or faster than dialling five numbers. “Os course- dialling is the coming thing and eventually every exchange will have it, but as (things stand liow Nappanee is not in great need of dial phones yet.” he adds. Work of the toll operators has been greatly speeded up because of all the cities that may now be reached by direct dialling. CABLE STITCH (CLUB Cable Stiittch club meets Friday at 7:30 p. m. with Mrs. Stanley Berger. Members are asked (to bring handicraft or handwork to the meeting.

IMPORTANT PICKER RULE TURN IT OFF FIRST! When the corn-packing season, is slowed down or lengthened be-, cause of the weather, the Job of picking and storing corn becomes more tedious and hazardous. The longer the season is prolonged, the faster people tend to work, says O. L. Hogsett, safety specialist and the more unnecessary chances they take in art effort to make up for lost time. Hours of pain and misery, loss of limbs and even loss of Life Itself are sometimes the pay for these actions. The few seconds you can save by not turning off the power before unclogging the picker, certainly isn’t worth the risk of losing a couple of fingers or a hand-. Just think what it would mean to lose the use of a hand for the rest of your life just to save 20 seconds. You know it’s not worth it. You also know it’s not the safe thing to do. So be sure to turn off the powed before you get off that tractor seat. RUSSELL YEAGFRS ENTERTAIN PARENTS Rev. .and Mrs. B. T.
