CoATESVILLE NEWS by Joe Davidson, Correspondent
Looks as if every fellow and 1 his cousin have the flu or have just emerged from a case. Busi- ! nessmen and women have been i abed with it the past week and : children by the dozen. Reports come that county schools are counting their absences in the hundreds. Mrs. Doris Runnells and daughter, Bobbi, drove to Richmond Friday afternoon and were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Hathaway and family and Mrs. Zelma Hathaway until Sunday afternoon. Mr. and Mrs. Joe Davidson were invited to the Marott Hotel Sunday afternoon by the Miller Tour Organization to see movies of a plane flight to the countries of Europe and the Near East and some fine pictures of touring in Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland. While at the ho- j tel they met some folks fromj Logansport who were with them . on a New Orleans tour two j years ago and a half-dozen who accompanied them on a trip the past summer tq the Pacific Northwest. It was a delight to meet again these kind and friendly folks. This is maple syrup time and like so many other commodities this prized sweet does not get any cheaper. The latest quotation on a gallon was S7.50. A half-gallon could be had for $4.50. In grandfather’s day, good thick syrup was a dollar. The Methodist chorus met Monday evening at the home of Mable Davidson for a first practice on an Easter music program. You have heard the words before. “rushing the season.’’ Last week a young man was hoofing it along a Greencastle street in bare feet He has likely had a good swim in Big Walnut ere ’ now. The Coatesville Public Library has close to 9,000 vol-! times. They represent all sorts of reading matter as history, science, biography, travel, English, etc. In a town of 450 inhabitants how many adults and how many juveniles within the' town’s limits would you think; would patronize the library? A recent survey reveals that one adult in 18 takes out a book now and then, and one in 15 children enjoy a book. The library not only has books but furnishes the reader with tables, lights, atlases and a fine globe. Such a layout would have been a heaven on earth to Abraham j Lincoln. Mr. and Mrs. Cyrus Stanley, who have spent the winter j months at Redwood Canyon, California, came home Saturday. Mrs. Lulu Russell, widow of the late Alonzo Russell, died suddenly Monday morning at | the home of her daughter at' Oxford, Ind. Mrs. Russell was an aged lady who had made ■ Coatesville her home for many' years. Her body was brought to 1 the Weaver Funeral Home and burial was in the local cemetery on Friday afternoon. Joseph Pickens, a w r ell-known farmer and stock man south of j Belle Union underwent major! surgery at the Methodist Hospital the first of the week. He is now reported to be recuperating rapidly. Mrs. Lois Duncan was taken to the Putnam County Hospital this week for major surgery. The Dan Bennett Jiffy Wash erected several months ago seems to be doing a good business. There is seldom an after-, noon but a half dozen young men and sometimes high school girls are cleaning their cars in- j side and out. This business establishment seems to be a social! center where as they work, all | have a talk fest and a good time. While in Baton Rouge several months ago I had a chance to visit the famous state house \ built by the late Huey Long., While standing with several ■ other sightseers in a legislative chamber someone made aloud this observation: “The grandeur of this building, the whole atmosphere of this room would induce a legislator to be on his dignity, be honest, and at his best.” Maybe something is missing in Indiana’s legislative halls that shoud be there. The new J & J Furniture Store had its opening day Saturday, March 18. A good crowd was in and out all the afternoon. Door prizes were given. The town wishes this proprietor and his wife success in their business.
Coatesville kinsmen and friends were shocked by the death Friday of Glenn Ruark at this home. He had been ill for several months, suffering from a nervous disorder and was scheduled to enter a hospital for examination and possible treatment when death
For years the older people of this community have, near Eas- : ter time, considered salt fish a i gourmet treat, a near neces- j sity, and almost an institution. In the good old days the Jack j Gambold store sold this prized fish at one cent each or about. 5c a pound. How times have j changed! Salt mackerel in a | county seat city this week brought 79c a pound. That means about 15 times as much as “back when.” If you are mathematically inclined you can estimate the percentage in-
crease.
Next Sunday is Easter and following morning worship
a wife and i there will be a Choir Cantata.
A training class will be received. At 2:30 there will be a church
wedding.
A District W.S.C.S. will be held April 4 at Mount Olive Church in Indianapolis.
