Noble Countians
Extend Welcome
On Plant Opening
James l.. Myers,
President, Unable
To Attend Event

1t was estimated today that
over 1000 Noble Countians,
many of whom were getting
their first view, attended formal
opening ceremonies of The
Cleveland Graphite Bronze Com
pany, Caldwell plant, last Thurs
day afternoon and Friday.
Heading the group of Cleve-
land officials were William G..
Latter, vice president-manufac-
turing and Merrill A. Young,
vice preSident-personnel.
Dut to last minute complica-
tion and previous illness, James
L. Myers, president of The
Cleveland Graphite Bronze Com
pany, was unable to attend but
sent his best wishes to the people
of Noble county thru Mr.. Latter.
Inclement weather prevailed
thru-out the entire two days of
the formal opening and this is
believed to have been largely
responsible for the number who
visited the Caldwell plant being
less than anticipated.
Due to a steady downpour of
rain, it was necessary at the last
minute to cancel all outside plans
and hold the formal opening in
side the plant proper. "
AS the speakers and officials
of the Noble County Industrial
Development were taking their
places on the platform, the VFW
color guard advanced to the
front of the stage, accompanied
by music from the Caldwell high
school band, direction of Marvin
P. Wood.
John Mckinley, manager of
the Caldwell Plant, served as
the genial master of ceremonies.
Mayor Homer johnson of
Caldwell welcomed the indus
trial plant to Noble county and

we'll are asking for sealed bids
until noon, Friday, May 9, for the
laying of a 12-inch cast iron
water pipeline from the Caldwell
reservoir to the intersection of
North and Young streets, where
it will be connected with an
eight inch line.
1t will be recalled that this
eight inch line was laid several
months ago by the Caldwell
Graphite Bronze company, from
this intersection to their Cald-
well plant, one mile south of
Caldwell.
The village is now coming
through with their end of the
| bargain, with the overall picture
resulting in the furnishing of an
ample water supply to the Cald-
we'll plant of the CGB.
The IL inch cast iron pipe for
the village will begin at the
RESERVOIR, one1half mile west Of
caldwell and be laid through the
premises of Clarence Crum to
iOaklawn avenue. .--
The right-of-way will then go
north to the village light and
waterworks plant and extend
eastward through the premises
of John K. Shamhart, Harry A.
Semon, and ]. A. Archer. It will
then run parallel along the alley
to North street and thence
Southerly to Young street, where
it will connect with the eight
inch pipe already laid. The bids
will be opened at noon, Friday,
May 8, and must be accompanied
by a certified check for $1,000.
The bid includes furnishing the
labor, the necessary material and
laying of the pipeline
John Harmon, c. A. Rogers
and r. D. Buckley are members
of the board of public affairs.
In conjunction with this legal
notice, the village of Caldwell
has also issued an ordinance,
authorizing the board of affairs
to enter into such a legal con-
tract. The ordinance will be
effective at the earliest date
provided by law.
When the village completes
this portion of their contract,
the Caldwell plant of the Cleve-
land Graphite Bronze company,
should have more than an ade-
quate supply of water for their
needs.

landscape of this county.
Miss Hazel V. Moore has
the distinction of being the
last one-room school teacher
in the county, having served
in this capacity at Kennonsburg
for several years.
The festivities at Kennons-
burg last Friday opened with
registration and greetings with
a bountiful covered dish dinner
enjoyed at noon. In the afternoon
the students of the school, num-
bering IA, presented a program
under the direction of Miss
Moore.
The program closed with a
treat for the students and the
knowledge that the last one room
school in Noble county had pass
ed into oblivion.
According to a check of the
Noble county school system in
1923-24, there were we'll over
100 one room schools in the
system.
This means that in the past
80 years, the march of progress
in the schools, has caught up
with the one room establish
ments and in most cases they
are only a memory in the minds
of many.
At one time, Wayne township
had three one room schools, in
Guiding Lower Opposum, Oak
Grove and Yoker, in addition to
the Kennonsburg high school
and the Kennonsburg grade
school. Charles Dyer of Quaker
City route was the superinten-
dent at the high school and. H.
B. Wilson, also of Quaker City
route was in charge of the grade
school. r.
Other well remembered one
room schools in this county are
Cauliflower, Jones, Morris, No.

Wyscarver, just to mention a
few.
