Tradition Holds That Similar
Weather Follows July 15
For 40 Days
St. Swithin’s Legend Indicates Forty
Days Of Fair Weather In Bluffton
Fair
Prediction Here Based On
And Pleasant Weather
Last Tuesday
Bluffton residents can now look
forward to 40 days of bright weath
er if the common belief concerning
St. Swithin’s Day is adhered to.
The tradition is that according as
it rains or shines on St. Swithin’s
Day, celebrated on July 15, the an
niversary of the translation of his
relics, the next 40 days will be
either rainy or bright.
Last Tuesday being a very fair
and pleasant day, one can now plan
for continued fair and warm weath
er for at least a month.
The legend contained in verse runs
as follows:
“St. Swithin’s Day, if thou dost rain,
For forty days it will remain:
St. Swithin’s Day, if thou be fair,
For forty days ’twill rain nae mair.”
This tradition is found on a leg
end that, before dying the humble
minded saint had begged to be in
terred in the open churchyard, and
not in the chancel of the church, as
was usual with bishops.
Here he remained for over a cen
tury, when

pointed for that purpose. But on
that day a mighty rain storm burst
forth, and continued without inter
mission for 40 days. The monks
took this as a sign of heavenly dis
pleasure, and instead of moving the
body they built a chapel over it

that so great a saint
so lowly a burial place,

Unfortunately for the legend, how
ever, it happens that the formal
tranlation of the relics of St. Swithin
from the grave in the church to a
magnificent shrine within the cathe
dral was in fact done on July 15,
971, only 109 years after his death
without any meteorological interfer

Immediately, however, legends were
set alloat at the time prove that
this was done by the saint’s wishes
as expressed in visions. A few years
afterwards the church, which had
originally been dedicated to the apos
tles Peter and Paul, changed these
guardians for St. Swithin, who in
turn had to yield to Henry VIII’s
substitution of the Holy Trinity.
A story is told in England of an
old lady who when St. Swithin’s Day
opened bright and fair expressed her
belief in an approaching term of fine
weather, but a few drops of rain
having fallen in the evening, changed
her tune and annouced that the next
six weeks would be wet. Her pre
diction failed, the weather being re
markably fine. “No matter,” she
would say “if there has been no
has been during the night.”

The shrine of St. Swithin early
sprang into great repute. Worship
pers, sick folk, the maimed and the
halt, flocked to the shrine and left
behind them substantial evidences of
their gratitude. For centuries Swith
in was the most popular healing
saint in England. But at present
his chief popular fame aroscs from
the fact that he is a sort of Jupiter
Pluvius of the calendar.
One of the early literary allusions,
from “Poor Ribon’s Almanac” of
1697, refers to the saint’s powers as
a weather prophet as follows:
“In this month is St. Swithin’s Day,
On which if that it rain, they say
Full forty days after it will,
Or more or less, some rain distill.
This Swithin was a saint, I trow
An Winchester’s bishop also
Who in his time did many a feat,
As Popish legends do repeat
A woman, having broke her eggs,
By stumbling at another’s legs,
For which she made a woful cry,
St. Swithin’s chanced for to come by,
Who made them all as sound or more
Than ever that they were before,
But whether this were so or no
’Tis more than you or I do know
Better it is to rise betime,
And to make hay while sun doth
shine,
Than to believe in tales and lies
Which idle folk do now devise.”
Paper Shortage
May Be Expected
Shortages in book, writing and
some other kinds of paper are ex
pected by the Office of Production
Management, according to informa
tion announced this week in Wash
ington, D. C.
It was predicted that before many
months readers may fincL their maga
zines have a yellowish color, because
of curtailment of supplies of chlor
ine, which is used as a bleaching
agent in the manufacture of paper.
Deliveries of chlorine to paper
manufacturers already have been cut
about 10 per cent by voluntary agree
ment, and it is indicated that a fur
ther curtailment is necessary.
Newspapers will be little affected
by the shortage because very little
chlorine is used in making newsprint.
In addition, Canadian newsprint pro
duction is running ahead of demand
and no paper shortage is anticipated.
Shortages in other types of paper
pulp is said to be due principally to
increased demand. In addition im
ports from Norway have been cut off.

County Officials To

Allen county eh Ticials are

Teachers Here To Get New Contracts
o Be Given Longer Contracts
Than Previous Employment
For One Year
Jill Does Not Guarantee Life
time Tenure Provides Dis
missal Grounds
In line with the provision of the
recently enacted teacher employment
law, the Bluffton Board of Education
will issue new contracts to all public
school teachers here when the law
goes into effect September 1, it was
announced this week by A. J. B.
Longsdorf, superintendent of schools.
In all schools under 800 enrollment
arrangement is made for one year
contracts for beginning teachers,
three year contracts on second em
ployment and either five year con
tracts or continuing contracts at the
option of the local board, on subse
quent re-employment.
Not Life Tenure
No lifetime tenure, however, will
exist according to a recent statement
of Walton B. Bliss, executive secre
tary of the Ohio Education Associa
tion, the organization which spon
sored the bill.
There are definite grounds for ter
minatting such contracts as set uu
by law. Bliss stated that the teach
ers as a body are just anxious to
weed out the incompetants in the
profession as is the public. The
right of a board of education to dis
miss incompetent teachers is con
tained in the provisions of the law.

Bluffton property owners was re

of larvae, it was reported by Robert
Oyer, who supervises the spraying
of all bodies of water within the vil
lage limits.
The course will last for a complete
school year or two semesters and will
consist of instruction in typing,
shorthand, accounting, business Eng
lish, office practice and other sub
jects related to general office prac
tice.
Opportunity will be given for spe
cial instruction in any one of the
fields, if the entire course is not
needed. The course “is intended es
pecially for those who have but a

The U. S. Department of Agricul
ture has announced that loans on ex
cess under marketing-quota provis
ions will be extended to April 30,
1943. This will affect wheat storage
on farms or in approved warehouses.
The present maturity date on all 1941
loans is April 30, 1942. The provi
sions permit farmers to store excess
wheat, postponing payment of the
49 cent per bushel penalty at this
time. Next year it will be possible
to market this wheat without penalty,
provided the acreage allotment is un
derplanted or the producer suffers a
crop loss. Producers storing excess
wheat on farms are entitled to 7
cents a bushel on such wheat as a
storage allowance at the maturity of
the 1941 loan, April 30, 1942. Where
storage loans are extended for anoth
er year, the producer will be entitled
to a further allowance of 5 cents a
bushel, making a 12-cent allowance
for storage up to April 30, 1943.

That she is dead,—she is just away!

She has wandered into an unknown

And left us dreaming how’ very fair
It needs must be, since she lingers

And you— Oyou, who the wildest

For the old-time steps and the glad

Excess Wheat Plan
Offered To Farmers
Permission to sell over-quota grain
without paying the 40-cent-a-bushel
penalty was announced this week by
the- Agriculture Department. The
plan is for farmers to seed below
their 1942 AAA acreage allotments.
Local AAA farmer committees will
give permission as soon as the 1942
crop is planted. With winter wheat
planting starting the first of Septem
ber producers of excess wheat could
market such grain this fall.
The amount of wheat that he could
sell would be equivalent to average
production of that portion of his
1942 allotment not planted to wheat.
For example, a producer with a
hundred acre wheat allotment and a
10-bushel-per-acre normal yield would
be permitted to sell 200 bushels of
excess wheat if he reduced his 1942
crop planting to 80 acres.
This plan has been developed by
AAA officials to soften protests of
many wheat growers who have been
protesting the marketing quota sys
tem in which excess wheat is sub
ject to a penalty tax of 49 cents a
bushel.
Religious Education
Will Continue Here
Religious Education will continue

The vacancy in the public schools

near future.
