Ingenious Plan
By Church Pays
For RemodeIing

When the members of the quaint
Methodist Church of Newport, To-
Gated in the bend of the Danville
Road, leading southeast out of the
village, decided back in 1949 that
ID was time the old building was
remodeled and re-decorated, it
posed the usual problem of how
best to finance the undertaking.
Among the first ideas thought of
was sale in which articles of any
type would be solicited from the
membership and friends, to be sold
at auction. Working on this COM
mittee were three of the congre-
cations prominent members, Har-
IN Powers, Francis E. Kronk and
Virgil Jordan, and the Reverend
Jesse A. Thornton, who came to
the community as church pastor
shout the time the remodeling was
started.
! After weeks of diligent effort, it
was in October 1949 that the COM
ti1tttee had its plans all set for the
venture. Hundreds of articles,
ranging from a dozen eggs, a cake
baked by the Reverend Mr.. Thorn
ton, to large scale farm machin-
cry, had been unloaded at the
home of the Virgil Jordans, which
Is just across the road from the
Church. Come the day of the sale,
there was just room to get through
the clutter of things consigned
and the placed looked like the
Madison County Fair, so great was
the crowd which came to see and
}bfbid. And bid they did, for when
the total had finally been count
kds there was more than $1,000 to
apply against the debt.
!, But that was only the first dent
in an approximate cost of $14,50O
for the remodeling job which was
completed about November 1949.
The ingenuity and generosity of
the members, however, was not

Mrs. WorreiI On
World Prayer Day

Mrs. Ruth Mougey Woryell, spe-
aker for the London World Day
of Prayer observance, Friday night
in the Methodist Church, has OBJ
tanned her information first hand.
The daughter of a minister, she
was a pioneer in religious pagean-
try and mission work.
One of her greatest contributions
has been in the field of race rela-
tions. In 1912 she became the first
executive secretary of the United
Council of Church Women. During
this period she spoke in every state
helping to organize state and local
Councils of Church Women. In
1947 she was a member of a com
mission that visited eleven Euro
pean countries to study the re
lief" need.

the countries visited. She returned
on the ship with the Crown Prince
of Japan and his party after visit
ing 18 countries.
inst last year Mrs. Worrell was
the speaker for the World Day of
Prayer in Rangoon, Burma.
The committee feels it is a pri-
vilege to present Mrs. Worren and
her fine message for the Women
of all denominations in London,
to hear Friday night, March u at
7:45 o'clock in the Methodist
Church.

Ohio Composers
Topic For
Woman's Club

To most people the name of
Benjamin Russell Handy is not fa-
miliar outside of Central Ohio but
there is hardly anyone anywhere
who has not heard or sung "Darl-
ing Nelly Gray" Monday, March
End, the Woman's Club met to
hear an interesting talk concern
ing his life and works presented by
Mrs. Kenneth Fichner.
Born in Rushville in 1888, the
son of a United Brethren circuit
minister, Handy, from childhood
when he helped his father write,
print, sell and deliver a religious
magazine, planned to follow in his
fathers footsteps. He entered OF
terbein College at 10 and after
nine years of alternately studying,
teaching and working at most any
job to pay for his education, he
graduated with high honors fol-
lowing a distinguished college ca
reer.
The home of his father, who was
now a bishop in WeSterville, be-
came center for the underground
railroad before and during the
Civil War. After Benjamin wit
messed a slave sale in Kentucky he
became very disturbed and brood
ed over the situation finally writ
ing Darling Nelly Gray" which
became universally popular as a
propaganda song against slavery.
Yet despite its tremendous popu-
larity $4,000 profit was all he
ever received for writing it! An
other composition, "Old Shady,
was a popular Union Army re-
cruiting song by Handy.
Following graduation, he mar
ried Mary Kate Winters and in
81 was pastor at LewiSburg. He
composed many United Brethren
hymns, was first to introduce chill
dren's sermons and a singing
church school for young people.
BY the time of his death at only
80 years of age, he had composed
so songs, five of them still sung
including one called Santa Claus"
which we now know as up on the
HouSetops."
The Handy home in Westerville,
which has been restored as a mu-
scum contains many interesting
momentos of the composer from
Ohio who brought music to the
lives of so many young people. To
conclude her part of the program
Mrs. Fichner sang the sad but
beautiful Darling Nelly Gray"
Continuing the idea of Ohio mu-
sic, Mrs. Donald Farquhar played
The Star" by the Cleveland COM
poser Jas. H. Rogers; Who
Knows?" by Ernest Ball, also a
Clevelander, lyrics by Paul Law
renee Dunbar of Dayton and con-
cluded with two very famous songs
Sylvia" and "On the Road to
Mandalay" by Obey Speaks of Ca
nal Winchester.
Mrs. Fichner's interesting talk
and beautiful singing, together
with Mrs. Farquhar's excellent pi-
ano selections provided an enjoy
able afternoon for the members of
the Woman's Club.

Gods Acre. Plan Pays Off
For Newport Church Group

lacking. Around this time, Francis
Z. Kronk read in one of his farm
papers about a plan called Gods
Acre" in which those cooperating
gave the proceeds from the sale of
the yield from an acre of ground,
or its equivalent. The idea found
favor with number of the
Church's congregation and the
plan was started. 1t was 1S months
later that the last payment on the
remodeling debt was paid off,
largely through the funds raised
from the new idea.
The plan is still in operation.
Last week the Gods Acre" plan
group had its annual dinner in the
dining-room of the church, elected
officers and started on its fifth
year. Francis E. Kronk, who has
been president since the organiza-
ton was founded, was reelected; !;
w. Neb Stewart was elected Sec
retary and Ray Campbell, treasur-
er.
Presently there are approx
mately 20 families in the commu-
nifty who are participating in the
plan. The amount that each gives
is a sacred trust with those Of
ficers who handle this special fund
that is used only for repairs on the
church. The running expenses
come from the regular contribu-
tions for the support of the church.
Whenever a special project is
brought up for the improvement of
the church property, money from
this fund can be used only upon
affirmative vote of those partici-
pating in the plan. However, ac-
cording to one of the members,
there has never been any dissen-
sion among them when it came to
anything for the good of the
church.
Said one member of this unique
group when asked about the feasi-
bility of the plan, after the four
years it has been tried in the local
community, ITO me it is a source
of great satisfaction to give in such
a consistent manner toward the
Lords work. 1t has not grown as
rapidly as we had hoped; person
ally we feel that if the plan were
adopted by more churches throu-
ghout our immediate area, that its
influence would be felt in ever
widening territory and through
setting aside of funds for philan-
thropic and religious works, it
would be the means of establishing
friendlier and more peaceful rela-
tions, nationally and International
ly. We are not despaired, how
ever; we feel that eventually the
good that such a movement can
do, will be realized by increasing
ly greater numbers of people in
terested in peace and harmony"
