COOK
Is BURIED HERE

Our mention last week of one OF
Washington soldiers being buried
in Ohio county, brings to light the
fact that another soldier. even more
intimately associated with the great
general, is buried here.
In the early days of the revolution
Thomas Fender, great Grand father
of Mr.. w. P. Render, of Matanzas,
came to America from Wales, and
asked for service in the continental
army. He was too young for field
service, but was made a cook in the
tent of the commander of the great
general. He was with Washington
through the gloomy winter at Valley
Forge. At the battle of the Cow
pens the Americans captured a guam
tity of the British officers stores,
among which was quantity of cham
paign. Young Pender had the ex-
citing experience while drinking from
a bottle to have the neck of the bot
tie shot away by British bullet.
Young Fender was with Washing
ton at historic Yorktown when the
British general, CORVALLIS, made the
final surrender of British authority
over the American colonies. He was
also intimately acquainted with La
fayette and a great admirer of the
young French officer. When Lafay'
cite visited Louisville in 1924 MT
Fender journeyed to Louisville to
see him, and was accorded hearty
reception. After the close of the Rev
olutionary war Thomas Pender came
to Ohio county where he died at an
advanced age. He was buried in
now neglected graveyard between
McHenry and Goshen.

Early Uses of Petroleum.

The following extract from an article

covery in the United States:
About lS49 S. NJ. kier, u druggist of
Pittsburgh, commenced TO bottle the oil
from brine we'll belonging to his faith
er, and sold II for medicinal purposes.
He soon effected a sale of about three
barrels daily. "kier's" petroleum was
sold at so cents per half-pint bottle.
Finding that the production exceeded
the sale, kier began, about 1853, to re-
fine the oil in Il roughly constructed

used at a factory in Cooperstown Tor

ner process of refining in 1860, obtain
ing more satisfactory results About
this time coal oil came into use for
Illuminating purposes, being secured by
the distillation of coal and shale This
business developed considerably until
Drake demonstrated that petroleum
could be secured by drilling and that il
afforded an Illuminating oil superior 10

SUPPORTS TEACHERS
Miss Thomas Backs Women in
Demand for Salary
Increase

Miss NJ Carey Thomas, president OF
Bryn Mawr College. told the women
teachers Of Philadelphia in a meeting
at William Penn High School last night
she was heartily in sympathy with their
efforts to organize public opinion in be-
half Of the bill to be introduced in the
Pennsylvania Legislature in January
which. IL passed, will give the teachers Of
the State 25 per cent increase in sala-
ries during the next two years She said
1t was step that should have been
taken long ago: that 1t was tardy and
insufficient justice long overdue.
President Thomas recommended that
the teachers of the State endeavor to
have paid them the following salaries: ::
The maximum salary of the class
teacher, $1,000. with an increase to $500
in twenty years; heads of departments
$500; principals of large schools,
$4,000 or s4500; entrants in high schools,
$1,000, with a maximum for class teach
ers In high schools of about $2S00 heads
Of high school departments, $500: dis
trict superintendents, s6500; associate
superintendents. $500; superintendents
Of schools, from $4,000 to $4,000, with
directors and assistants to receive cor
responding increases.
Resolutions demanding of the PenlI-
sylvania Legislature that adequate APP
propriations be made to give the school
teachers the raise in pay they are asking
for were adopted yesterday by the Phil
adelphia-New Jersey Methodist Preach
ers' Meeting in the Wesley Building.
