Members and guests in attendance at last night’s gath ering especially enjoyed a talk de livered by Dr. Rachel Salisbury, 1 member of Milton college faculty and president of the newly or ganized Rock County Historical society. Milton History Featured in the talk was a com parative history of Milton village beginnings, including erection of the famous Milton House, with its | hexagonal tower, by Joseph Good rich, founder of the settlement in i 1838. This structure, still standing, was constructed of grout in 1844-45 along lines believed to have originated from a 16-sided Shaker barn, standing in Hancock, Mass., birthplace of Goodrich in 1800. The barn was built in 1826. Eviction of the Milton House was preceded by a grout school house.' torn down after 10 years because its concrete structure did not manifest the staying quali- i ties inherent in the later hotel business block, said to have been (except for the preceding school house) the first concrete building l in the United States. Goodrich is said to have mixed gravel and sand with lime, obtained from nearby Lima, to obtain the mat erial. •"V • r. • • . *“*'■*•*■’ »»UW A A commissioner of Indian affairs by Lincoln. Dole is said to have obr tamed several sheets of the orig inal manuscript when a govern ment printer rescued them from a wastebasket'and divided the sheets among his friends, Mr. Dole re ceiving two of them. Lincoln mis spelled three words on one sheet, errors which were corrected by government proof readers before submission of the message to con gress. during the past year did a section of Milton House collapse, neces sary repairs and restoration now being planned by the state and county historical societies. A guest at the dinner was Mrs. C. A. Atwood, Janesville, who is secretary of the Rock County Historical Society. She urged Be- loiters to join the group, explain ing the purposes of the new or ganization which will co-operate with the various local societies already formed in the county. In the absence of Mrs. Mert Smith, museum curator, Mrs. Wallace, Beloit Historical Society secretary, submitted a report of important acquisitions to the Memoirs collection. Included in these was a quitclaim deed, dated Sept. 18, 1857, from Paul Dilling ham and Julia C. Dillingham, by Matthew Hale Carpenter, noted Beloit lawyer and later U. S. Sen ator and cabinet member, among whose papers it was found when his son, Paul Carpenter’s estate was settled. Carpenter defended Dillingham in the celebrated case involving Abraham Lincoln, in a trial of issues which affected the title of most downtown Beloit, i The deed is a gift from Attorney I George A. Garrigan. Lincoln Paper .

Miss McLenegan addressed the meeting regarding destruction of Murphy’s bridge on Shopiere Road to make room for a new one. She deplored it as having destroyed something of historical significance and ventured a hope that the Beloit Historical Society will act, if anything similar is ever attempted again in the name of : progress.

Only A Phototype The sturdy building was a mat ter of lifelong pride to the Milton | founder. Some years later a traveling lecturer on phrenology, named Fowler, visited Milton and was so impressed with the block he returned to Fishkill, N. Y., and, in 1853-54, constructed a four- story home, containing 65 rooms, embracing all the good qualities of the original, plus many im provements. This house endured until 1894, when it was blown up for removal after having been vacant for some time. The well- known Richards octagonal house in Watertown built in 1856 was patterned after the Fishkill resi dence. Dr. Salisbury outlined the col orful history of the Milton House and business block, citing some of its famous visitors including Grover Cleveland, John L. Sulli van, Tom Thumb, James G, Blaine and others. Sojourner Truth, the celebrated negress of anti-slavery days, came to Milton, staying with a colored family named Lee whose head had a shop in the business party of the block which housed eight separate stores, including the postoffice. Here the latter re mained during Republican admin istrations, being moved to a loca tion on the other side of the park whenever the Democrats took over. ___ _____ Built to Last_______ J r La - .. - fcv r I A -i • , A: < - ti • J • < - ® I Thui'8.

The “Northwind,” a U.S. Coast Guard ice breaker equipped with Fairbanks, Morse & Co. diesel engines and auxiliary equipment, plays the “lead.” Has Heavy Plating This 5,950-ton craft was one of four ordered by the Coast Guard during the war. Specifications call ed for unusually heavy plating and with power to crush nine-foot ice. Specifications also called for three screws, one forward and two aft. Dimensions of the pow- 'erful ice breaker are 250 feet by 59 feet six inches, and a draft of 26 feet six inches. The ship .was built to plov. ‘through the ice and not be pushed upward on to it.

Despite the storm's paralyzing' fury, only three deaths had been attributed to the blizzard as relief' workers reported that of the hund-« reds of persons marooned only one' definitely was known to be still! missing.

There; was no way of estimating damage ! and livestock losses. i Most of the stalled trains were ’ moving again—slowly and hours late as snow plows battered path ways through drifts. Five trains still were stalled, but these were at stations and their passengers were safe. Four of them were on the Rock Island lines at Goodland .in northwest Kansas and one was the Union Pacific City of St. Louis at Weskan on the Kansas-Colorado line. Many stranded motorists were rescued by Santa Fe train crews in the Dodge City-Garden City area. One of them, the Rev. R. W. O.

During his youth he clerked in a dry goods store, and in 1902 opened a similar store in Kemmerer, Wyoming, as one of three partners. Out of this humble beginning— one small store in a western mining town—grew the pres ent Penney Company with stores in every state in the union. The phenomenal growth of the company is proof of the soundness of Mr. Penney's be lief in the Golden Rule as the best possible business policy. He applied the principles of square dealing equally in mer chant-customer and in employ- i er-employe relations, and these policies have won for the com pany the confidence of the public and the loyalty of as sociates, both so vital to sue- j cess. ORIGINAL PENNEY STORE—The Penney Company's "mother" store was opened as the "Golden Rule Store" in Kemmerer, Wyoming, in 1902. It was a small building in a real old Western mining town—just one small room on the town's muddy main street. It was an era when "let the buyer beware" was the ordinary business philosophy, and prices us ually depended on the customer's haggling ability. Mr. Pen ney really lived up to the principles involved in the name he gave his little venture, and he further broke with tradition by plainly pricing his goods and then selling at no other figures. Today the company he founded in Kemmerer operates attrac tive, modern department stores all over the United States, testifying to the wisdom of his fair business practice, based on the Golden Rule. coula find no named it after the capital of his native state."
