New Harmony, Ind, Is probably the
one town in the Mississippi valley that
has sun dial town clock. 1t is proba-
bly, the oldest and most reliable time
piece In the country. 1t has been turn
ing on the minutes and hours and days
since 1921 without over 30 cents re
pair, 1t never runs down, never goes
on strike and as long as the sun does
business 1t is reliable. To-day 1t is
something more than timepieee-it Is
a curiosity. 1t Is historical probably
having an edge over any other time
piece in Indiana In this respect. New
Harmony was Il colony settlement. The
building on which the dial Is placed
was built by the colonists and was
used by them as a barracks. 1t was
erected in 1914. There We're no rail
roads in those days and as everything
was local there was no need of any
thing but sun time The whole world
ran on the same schedule then. For
several years the colony operated by
number of sun dlals and hour glasses,
but this became unsatisfactory and at
last George Rapp, the leader, conceived
the idea of having town clock.
First of It's Kind.
He was probably the first to endow
any Indiana town with such an ad-
1unct. He went TO the forest and cut
the solidest black walnut tree he could
find. He finished 1t down to six-foot
lengths and made facing 6x4 feet. A
strip was nailed across the top to throw
off the rain. He then had the colony
