4 MAN FELT LIKE HIS
BONES WERE BROKEN,
DUE TO RHEUMATISM

One man recently stated that for
years he felt like the bones in his
legs were broken. This was due to
muscular rheumatism. His muscles
were swollen and his legs so stiff
and sore that he couldn't walk with
out limping. He was in misery.
Recently he started taking RHU-
AID and says the feeling like his
bones were broken disappeared the
second day. The swelling and stiff
ness has gone from his muscles; now
he can walk without suffering and
says he feels like a new man.
RHU-AID contains Three Great
Medical Ingredients which go right
to the very source of rheumatic and
neuritic aches and pains. Miserable
people soon feel different all over.
So don't go on suffering! Get RHU-
AID. A. Hauenstein & Son Drugs.

Few log cabins remained.
No longer was it necessary for
residents Of zoar to labor so hard;
nearly so outsiders, non members of
the organization, were employed by
them.
Zoar's Present Population lao
Today, since the society's dissolu-
ton, Zoar is a quaint village of low,
rambling cottages and white fences.
It has about lao population.
The administration building Of
the society, built in 1886 to house
the business offices and provide
quarters for the aged, still stands.
1t was occupied by the Zoarist lead
er, Joseph Bimeler until his death in
1853 and consequently still is called
1.-THE Kings Palace. 1t now is a
memorial museum and contains Zoar-
ist pottery, furniture and musical in
struments.
On the ceiling above a stairway
leading to the third floor the huge
red, blue and yellow star, emblem of
the Separationists, is painted 1t Is
Che same emblem the Zoarites wore
on their shoulders to distinguish
them from visitors to the village.
Garden Still Is Attraction
+ The Garden of zoar still is in the
center of the town. 1t is two and
one-half acre plot designed after the
description of the New Jerusalem
given in the Book of the Revelation.
A spruce tree in its center represents
the Tree of Life. A circle of II
shrubs around it suggests the
Apostles, and II paths, which divide
the garden into a peculiar geometric-
al design, are representative OF the
Twelve Tribes of Israel.
The Zoarites had no prayers,
baptisms nor sacraments. Like the
Jews, they would not eat pork. Their
log church was filled in the evenings
and twice on Sundays. The morning
service consisted of vocal and in
strumental music and reading from
the Scriptures by one of their mem
bers. In the evening, reading from
a German catechism was substituted
for that from the Bible.
Whatever the peculiarities of their
religion there seemed sufficient in
their creed, if followed, to make the
life of the Zoarites upright and law
abiding.

Higher Scale OF Teach
ers' Pay Set By Board
Concluded from page II

I1OHcluueu lTOH page
mined by the board last week follow
ing meetings on Monday, Wednesday
and Saturday, both old and new
teachers win receive a 500 flat in
crease, and instructors with previous
experience in the local school system
will benefit proportionally under the
one-percent tenure provision.
Drafting of the new schedule on a
basis that would prove passably sat
isfactory to all teachers was diff
cult assignment for the board, in view
of two divergent opinions among in
structors as to how increases should
be granted.
In one faction were teachers with
longer tenure on Bluffton teaching
staffs, and the other group consisted
of those more recently hired, par
tcularly within the last year or two.
Older teachers had claimed the
board Disseminated against them in
hiring new instructors at figures a.
bove an existing pay schedule. For
that reason they believed teachers
employed at higher than schedule
rates should not participate on an E.
quail basis in pay raises.
On the other hand, some of the
newer teachers, hired at salaries in
excess of the schedule, said they
came here expecting to share in any
overall increases that might be gran
ted.

They were simple folk--farmers,
Weavers, carpenters, cabinet makers,
bakers, and in the sparsely settled
country found it hard to make a
living in their independent way.
Besides, some Of them were old,
infrm, and needing special care, un-
able to make a living at all.
Aid To Starving Settlers
Soon they were in sorry plight.
Starvation faced them, and payment
for their land, which had been
bought on credit, soon would be fall
ing due. Temporary easement came
when a distant stranger, hearing of
their condition, sent provisions and
supplies for the entire band.
After 1S more months of individual
struggle the group formed a COM
munal corporation, chartered in 1882
as the separatist Society of Zoar, to
work zone for all and all for one"
with all their property held in
common.
They named their community Zoar
after the Biblical city to which Lot
fled after he left Sodom-a doubt
full compliment to Wurttemberg.
Divide Million Dollars
So after years of hardship and
prosperity, grueling labor and care
fnl saving, and eanny investment
and management during 80 years,
when the society disbanded 40 years
ago it had more than $1,00O,0OO in

property and money to divide among
the Zoar-born offspring Of the origin
al members.
Tt did not dissolve because of the
failure of the principles on which it
had been founded, but rather be-
cause of the modern desire of the
society's younger members to branch
out for themselves, live an individual
life and amass for themselves the
benefits of their earnings.
In their original organization the
group vested administration of the
society's property and affair in an
agent and three trustees. All were
elected, the women voting as well as
the men.
% Log Cabins
For years the society struggled
against adversity. Their community
consisted of about 25 log cabins. The
barns were large and grouped in an
irregular manner among the fruit
trees that grew ali over the village,
But not even stick or chip Uttered
the green meadows and fertile fields
that stretched out all around the
town.
Their number had been depleted
by deaths, in 1882, of more than so
of the members from cholera. Poverty
in the society's early years had
prevented many matrimonial allan
ces, so the birth rate was low.
Systematic division of labor was
carefully practiced in their domestic
community. Their clothing was
washed all together and one bakery
supplied all with bread. A general
nursery sheltered all children over
three years old and the closest
economy was practiced in all the
community's operations.
Never Violated Law
In winter the children were taught
English and German. Simple-mind-
ed, artless and little acquainted with
the outside world, no Zoarite ever
was convicted of violating a law.
Though its wealth came the hard
way, the community attained pros
perity.
By 1874 the society had 300 men,
bers and possessed property valued
at more than $1,000,O0O. 1t had
5000 acres of land in one tract; one
oil, one saw, and two Touring mills;
one woolen factory, and money in.
vested In stocks. Two iron foundries
it started were failures.
Homes in the village now were of
brick or frame, painted white, with
white picket fences around them.
