1t could hardly be called a
Scrapbook. 1t is one of t h e
most valuable documentary
memoirs of Montville. Not only
does it contain clippings of
Montville, but carefully pr E.
served within its pages are
news clippings from newspap-
ers published in the latter part
of the last century.
From a newspaper d a e d
April Is, 1865, is the sotry of
the assassination of President
Lincoln. Several of the book S
pages are devoted to the COM
plete details of this tragedy.
Then, from another old news
paper, is the original clipping
detailing the death of President
Mckinley, as well as President
Garfield. have news features
are illustrated with pictures of
the famous men, and show the
many memorials erected in
their honor.
The type in those clippings
is exceedingly small and as one
realizes that in those days all
newspapers were hand e t,
the long hours involved in the
publishing of a newspaper then
is indeed respected.
The flowery journalism of
those years is indeed a con-
trast to today's unwitten jour
naliSm rule ''be terse." T h e
opening paragraph in one
obituary stated: Death, t h e
dark boatman, has again been
moored in our harbor. Friday
morning, December 20, a sable
knight knocked at our door and
summoned our loved and high
ly respected citizen"
Chardon has considerable
space in the book, with photo
graphs of the county seat as it
was before the great fire in
1868, and Chardon'S main street
as it is today. There are
photographs of various maple
camps in operation, showing
how >Geauga's famous product
was produced many years ago.

Highlights of county history

memories. One item, undated,
carries the headline: Pretty

of the time the Chardon school
board considered expelling a
pretty young teacher because

fore the scholars; that she often
immodestly arranged her skirts

els -. "
1t was 54 years ago in Au-
gust, 1900, that Montville had
its first Homecoming. The
event was held in WA. Shaw'S
orchard, with $50 present. "It
is hoped that we may h a v e
more such pleasant reunions
and that more Montville boys
and girls who live in different
parts of the county may be
present next year." was h 9
hope of the correspondent who
covered that first reunion
Fifty four years later, the
tradition is still upheld.
The names of the charter
members are listed with beau,
tiful flourishing penmanship in
notebook, and the clipping
of every Montville reunio n
from that year on has b e n
carefully preserved.
A few years after the first
reunion, a correspondent cons
cientiously covered the story,
and his Cor herr sentiments a.
bout the speaker were express
sed thus: The first part of
the speakers lengthy, type
written address, was listened
to by the audience with plea
sure, it being reminiscent. of
his boyhood days in Montville
and comparing farming and
the farmers condition an d
success of 40 years ago with
the same at the present time.
But when he launched into a
lengthy TRADE on trusts a n d
tax reform, from a Democra-
tic standpoint, most of his hear
er'S, being Republicans, were
greatly displeased. Although
they heard him through
and treated him with proper
respect, there was much kick
ing about it afterwards, and,
in the future, political speech

signed: "One Who Was There. "

REPLY TO MRS. HER.
Mrs. Fl. S. c.,
n. nssn.. CS,~.s.,o MI


May I suggest that instead
OF using pastry for your cock
tail party you make several
cream puffs (use a scant tea
spoonful instead of a table
spoonful. You can make them
several days ahead and freeze
them un-stuffed in celophane
bags or just keep them in a
cool place. Then split and fill
with any fish or chicken salad.
Any cream puff recipe is good
and simple to make. Be sure to
pre-heat yoLr oven and watch
so they are not too brown.
Stuff just before serving. /
have found that these bits size
puffs are very popular. If you
want to use pastry, you can
freeze them, un-stuffed, before
baking and bake them just be-
fore using. Use as little mayon-
aise as possible.

WASHINGTON, N-A Senate
House committee says the nation
IL "a long way toward achieve
ment" of Its industrial mobiliza-
ton program but cautions against
any slip below maximum readi-
ness for any emergency."
In its fourth annual report on
national defense production and
controls, the Joint Committee on
Defense Production said last night,
s1arge expansions in basic indus
tries have materially increased the
ccuntry's capacity to produce both
for war and for peace"
The committee also reported that
minimum goals in strategic mater
iaIs stockpiles have been reached
IN some vital areas, OF the rs
materials being stoekpiled, it said,
50 are at the minimum levels
while only lS are at less than 50
per cent Of established goals.
Listed as the scarcest of critical
msterials were nickel, tantalum,
selenium, titanium and strategic
mica.
Noting big Increases In indus
trial capacity since the mobiliza-
tien program was launched during
the early stages of the Korean
War, the committee said;
"Priyate industry has stepped up
Ms rate Of plant and equipment ex-
peHditures to nearly 2S billion
dollars in 1853 compared to 10 bill
Lion dollars In pre-Korea. This is
IN contrast with World War II when
government funds accounted for
mefe than 70 per cent of the plant
expansions.v
Ihe committee said more than
11 billion dollars have been ap-
pf0priated since, Korea for mill
taFy procurement and construction.
OF this total, some $92, 800, 900 900
worth had been delivered as of
last June 80.
During the IL months ended June

silss increased 1O4 per cent, am

Decreases, attributed to shifts
