Nostalgia

Compiled by Margaret England-Neff (120 years to 50 years) and Cari McFarland (25 years to 15 years) 120 Years Ago Nov. 3,1887 Excitement was created in town Wednesday afternoon over the report that Newton Pippen, who was at work on Best Bros, new slaughterhouse just north of the ball park, had seen a wild man. The strange object was the size of a large man with long black hair and a beard more than a foot long. It had no clothing except a loin cloth fastened with a stick. It could not speak but could mutter words of some kind. It left and fled into the woods. 100 Years Ago Nov. 6,1907 Very little vandalism was committed the past Halloween in Nappanee. The most serious damage was committed by school boys who pelted schools with tomatoes, breaking a number of windows and marking the walls of the buildings. The names of these youngsters were handed to the school board and the boys had to clean up the marks the tomatoes left and also pay for replacing the lights and window shade aside from this. Also a few outhouses were overturned, but no arrests made. 75 Years Ago Nov. 3,1932 Definite assurances have been received here that President Hoover will give a short talk from the rear of the B&O special Friday morning at t few minutes after 7 o'clock at the depot in Nappanee. 50 Years Ago •: Nov. 7,1957 , A Detroit coil spring manufacturer, Cavalier Spring Co., will establish an assembly plant in Wakarusa Dec. 1 and hire at least 25 persons, and later 40 to 50 may be hired as operations increase. The factory will open in the Fred Stichter building. 25 Years ago Nov. 3,1982 Everyone knows firemen are supposed to rescue cats from trees. However, Nappanee's Smokey Stovers are equal opportunity rescuers. They take care of dogs, too. The efforts of three Nappanee firemen saved a canine from drowning in a cistern under the Randy Oblesbee home at 301 S. Nappanee St.

15 Years Ago Oct. 28,1992 In a joint effort, Nappanee morning and noon Kiwanis clubs have presented "Red Ribbon Week" badges to all elementary school students in the Wa-Nee district. The badges have the logo "Hugs are Better than Drugs."

SHI RTS | continued from front

not only to show the tornado, but to recognize die areas that were hit the hardest. Swirling around the tornado he placed a picture of an Amish buggy to represent die rural areas, a roof to represent the damaged houses, food to represent the restaurants and fast food businesses and an RV to represent Franklin Coach, Fairmont, Gulf Stream and other manufacturers in the tornado's path. The back of the shirt reads "We 'all' survived, Oct. 18, 2007." According to Hollar, this phrase is a celebration of the fact that no lives were lost in the storm. "Without casualties we thought we'd incorporate that," he said. "So it's We, all in quotation marks, survived." Hooded sweatshirts with pockets in the front are also available and will have the same logo as the T-shirt. The shirts will be available at the Nappanee Police Department 24 hours a day, and at the Nappanee city hall and the chamber of commerce during regular hours while supplies last. The shirts will also be available by order. Tshirts are $lO each and sweatshirts are $25. All proceeds will go to the Nappanee Tornado Disaster Fund.
