of the C"mniume's Property, Which Is
now Taking Plnre-surveying the
Farms.
Yesterday the work of dividing among
the communists OF Zoar the property
that has for many years been held by
their organization, the Separatists' So

the members OF the society agreed 10
the proposed division OF the property
into equal shares.
The Division and allotment to each
member his or her share, will be made
by three disinterested men as soon as

be prepared by a competent surveyor.
The society never was, nor is It now,
In ilra!Glal difficulties. 1t is prepared
AZ any time to meet its obligations
promptly. The real property. consist
ing of over 1000 acres OF land, Is held In
fee simple, and not a scrap OF paper or
any !rcumbrance whatever Is held
against any one.
The story that three women were
standing in the way and blocking Ill
vision has been stamped as false by
Louis Zimmerman, treasurer of the So
ciety.
There are remaining rinety-two mem
bers, and each will be lcf, wealthy. The
society was founded in 1920 by Joseph
Bimeler and band OF followers from
WurtemburS, Germany, WHO came to
America to escape religious persecu-
ton. Bimeler was made King and ruled
with a firm hand until his DEATH He
forbade marriage and then married
himself. The kings mansion. one OF the
most interesting relics or the town OF
Zoar, still stuuds.
Arrangements were completed by the
society TO begin the work OF surveying
and plating the whole property yester-
day. The survey will be made by ard
under the direction OF George E. Hay
ward. Il county surveyor. After the
completion OF the survey, Samuel Foltz
of New Philadelphia: Henry s. Kline,
OF BoHver, and Mr.. Becker. OF S,arke
county, who have accepted, will make
n division among the members of the
society with the aid OF the surveyors
the realty to be divided equally among
the members al cash values. The cor
Doration Will remain and be conducted
BY the trustees OF the society until the
division Is completed and the ailot-
meuts accepted by the members.
The sunposition Is that after the COM
pletion OF the division and all matters
settle down 10. n final basis the beauu-
full little town OF Zoar. with Its wealth
OF romantic scenery, VIII be turned into
n resort, and II properly conducted, as
It surely Will be, 1t will be found one of
the most desirable places in eastern
Ohio for few weeks outing during the
summer months. Its members Will re-
tire from the society each In comfort
able circumstances ard MI OF them be-
Ing Industrious and frugal people, Will
start the new life in happiness and
prosperity.
