NATIONAL RADIO WEEK
NOVEMBER IA 20

Television is now considered
the Nations No. 1 Boom Indus
try for Radio according TO
Life Magazine.
The programs are becoming
more interesting every day and
I think it is the greatest thing
for home entertainment that
has ever been offered to the
American Public. :.
Zion is excellently located
for Television reception due to
the fact that our city is located
just midway between the two
large cities-Chicago and Mil
waukee. We are neither too
near or too far for the best re-
ception.
Several Television receivers
have been installed around
Zion and are working with ex-
ceptional results. Interference
is not a serious problem.
The new N. B. G.. station is
due to start with a full sche-
dule early in January. At pres
ent their operations are only
experimental. This will be the
outlet for the N B G. Network
which is also to be completed
early in January.
This will make 5 stations
which can be seen in Zion -

ROY'S BARBER SHOP
DATES BACK TO 1908

Continued from Page ~
worked side by side with the
veteran tonsorialist for a de-
cade, before J. L. retired in
1910. Roy operated the bust
ness for Mr.. Vinnedge for the
next five years and then be-
came owner-operator in July
of 1916.
Shortly thereafter Radley
McNabb, who in his youthful
days had served as bootblack
in the shop, came back as a
full-fledged barber and took
over as Roy's assistant, Radley
was one Of the first Zion boys
to join the armed forces prior
to Pearl Harbor and, after par
ticipating in some of the heavi-
est fighting in Europe, return
ed home and completed a bar
bering course in Chicago. He
began working for Mr.. Pastel
in 1916.
Although not native, Roy
has spent much of his life in
this vicinity. AS a mere babe
in arms Roy came to Winthrop
Harbor with his parents, Mr..
and Mrs. Joseph Pastel and
family, from his native Georgia
in 1908. Roy was born the
youngest of seven children on
April II, 1907, in Atlanta.
Roy attended grade school
in Winthrop Harbor and was
graduated in the spring of
1922. After his graduation
from grade school in the near
by village, the Pastel family
moved to Toledo, Ohio, where
Roy attended the Waite High
school and was graduated in
1926. Following graduation, he
enlisted in the U. S. Army.
Three of his older brothers,
Abe, Lewis and Tom, had serv-
ed overseas with the American
Expeditionary Forces in the
First World War, and one Of
them, Abe, is still disabled and
confined to the veterans hos
pital near Asheville, N. C. Roy,
while in the army, served with
the First Division of the 18th
Infantry, and was honorably
discharged in 1880. His first
job after leaving the army was
at the Inter-Urban depot in
Toledo, and a few months lat
er he returned to the scene of
his early childhood and be-
came Mr.. Vinnedge's assist
ant in the local barber shop.
interviewing Mr.. Vinnedge
this week in an effort to estab-
lish a definite background for
the local barber shop, it was
discovered that as a barber in
Zion, j. L. was preceded only
by the late Frank Marvin.
When Mr.. Vinnedge arrived
here on July 10, 1901 from Wa
terloo, Ia, he discovered Mr..
Marvin busily engaged operat-
ing a shop in a tent staked out
on Sheridan Road in the gen
eral vicinity of the present Lee
Food Store.
Shortly after the Zion De-
partment store was construct
ed, the Industries set up bar
Der shop on the second floor
of the building and Mr.. Vim
hedge was appointed manager,
with J. A. Kinsman, Paul

THE TheoCrat

a sales representative of the
Kimball piano manufacturing
firm.
In 1907, during the period
of transition in Zion, Mr.. Vim
hedge saw his opportunity to
get back into his chosen work
privately, and, with this in
mind, purchased three lots on
9th Street, where the Donlon
Bakery and the Pastel Barber
shop are now located.
Three one story buildings,
which had been used as a meat
market and fresh food mart on
the southwest corner of Sheri-
dan Road and 9th Street,
where the Bank Building now
stands, were purchased by Mr..
Vinnedge and moved onto his
property. One of these build
ings was taken over by Mr.. B.
J. Hopkins and Mr.. R. B. John
son and was converted into
mortuary. This building later
was enlarged in the rear and
a second story added.
The center building, where
the Pastel shop is now located,
at first was rented to the late
w. D. Rockefeller, who open
ed Zion's first privately own
ed grocery store, and the third
building became the home of
Zion's first privately owned
newspaper, the Zion Independ-
ent published by O. w. Davis.
In the front portion of the
newspaper building Mr.. Vim
hedge set up his first privately
owned barber shop.
A few months later, when
Mr.. Rockefeller leased the
western half of the store now
known as Sabine Fine Foods,
Mr.. Vinnedge moved into the
present barber shop and re-
manned there for 81 years, I'M
til he retired in 1910. The other
building, which later became
the home of the Norris Meat
Market, since has been torn
down.
Mr.. Vinnedge recalls the i'm
pecuniosity of the tonsorial
trade in those early days, with
hair cuts bringing only rs cents
a head, while a shave could be
had for 10 cents, the latter of
which didn't amount to much
largely due to the popularity
of the beard in those days.
In later years, however, the
barbering trade became more
profitable and Mr.. Vinnedge
who is now in retirement and
lives at 2737 Eshcol Avenue,
remembers his barbering days
with a certain nostalgia and
said that he recalls with graft
tude and affection those many
patrons who made his barber
ing days happy and profitable.
Although the main portion
of this tale is confined to bar
boring, Mr.. Vinnedge recalls
with interest the construction
of his first home in Zion. 1t was
located at 1913 Enoch Avenue
and is now we'll known as Miss
Lloyd's Nursing Home. 1t was
the first house in this block,
but few months later Mr.. and
Mrs. E. J. Hampson built their
home at 2915 Enoch Avenue
and became Vinnedge's next

East Glacier ii
By Mrs. DON Barnat11l

This month the East Side has
experienced all types of weather
but the greater part has consis-
ted of zero or sub-zero tempera-
lures. One day last week, the tenn
perature dropped from well above
freezing to 1 below zero in two
hours.
Strong cold winds sweeping
down Swift Current valley this
month have piled high drifts of
snow in and around the Many Gla-
cier hotel. Fred Knowlton, care
taker at the hotel, states that he
and his men this week cleared
snow to the depth of two feet from
many of the bedrooms, halls and
lobby Of the hotel
Rangers Stimson and Barnum
returned Monday from several
days spent in the Waterton dist
riot on patrol. Skiing was good
and the men made the trip across
the ice of Waterton lake to the
Ranger station, distance of eight
miles, in less than TWO hours. The
snow measurement at the station
was IS inches while rive miles up
the valley at Pass Creek there was
IS inches: Returning from the
trip they noticed that lynx had
followed in their tracks for a quar-
ter of a mile. A number of elk,
deer, moose and coyotes were seen
and all were alert and in good
condition.
Mrs. Fred Knowlton spent sever
al days in Browning last week
where she went to take her grand
son home to his parents after a
visit of several weeks with the
Knowltons.
Loaded with cakes, cookies, ice
cream and gifts, the ladies of St.

Dave Stimson at home on her

who has the contract for 5000
tons of ice, has sixteen trucks in
operation hauling the cut ice to
Glacier Park station where 1t is
loaded on freight cars and shipped
to Havre, Butte and other points.
A herd of 40 or so mountain
sheep have grazcu the Swift Cur
rent valley both winter and sum-
mer for many years. In winter,
they venture down to the build

salt and food or perhaps through
