Painter Tackles Job On
High Tower At Which All
Steeplejacks Grow Shy

Although Ralph Taylor, a local paint
eg, does not pose as sleeplejack, he
accepted job this weck that was 4
little too risky for half dozen or more
professional steeplejaeks who were EN-
pleyed by Erixon ( Jones to paint the
steeple of the First Methodist church
aud who laid down on the Job.
1t is now Mr. Taylor who may be
seen from day to day labonng from the
high altitude of the chureh steeple and
who is doing the painting to the utmost
satisfaction of Erixon & Jones.
The Apex of the Methodist steeple
is 1870 feet from the ground. In order
to get ladder to the top, it was found
necessary to 90 inside the steeple to a
point within six feet Of the apex and
there bore hole through. A strong
-Sopo swasinsertcd through the hole, ,v~
ered TO 6 singing below and ladde,
attached. This latter wds then raised
high enough to reach to the apex and
lashcd to the steeple from within.
Thea in reaching the apex, ali that
was necessary was to climb to point
within the steeple to AN opening and
then ascend by the ladder on the out
side. The tower Of the Methodist steeplC
is l6 feet at the base, gradually tspsl
ing to two feet, on which is placed the
pinnacle. On the top Of lac pinnacle is
q ball, llnehes in diameter. This bal
was sawed off and lstef covered with
gold leaf. In few days it will again
be seen in its usual place.
All deeayed wood and tin parts Of the
stceple are now being replaced. The
church was built in 1873 and the stecplt
few years later. The steeple was eoy
cred with shingle about 90 years ago
In about 1900, it was painted The
steeple as well as the wosd work Of
the church will all be repainiej and re
paired.
