April ushered in with spring sho
wers Tuesday—which promise flo
wers in May—we hope anyway
spring looked like the real thing
Tuesday—unless it was an April Fool
prank after all it was only last
week that roads were drifted full of
■now—some fence-high and it*
could happen again Peter Nus
baum the other day recalled the big
snow that came in May 1883—they
had a bobsled ride when apple trees
were in blossom but no matter
what the weather, Bluffton will be
all out in its finest for Sunday’s East
er parade there’ll be those funny
little hats—you know ... all the gals
from to GO will wear them and
praise be, there’ll be nylons this
year and plenty of eggs for
home-coloring—altho you may have
to take brown ones if you wait too
long chocolate ones will be
scarce—and jelly beans still a war
casualty but there’ll be gaily
colored chicks for the kiddies and
now they can have real live bunnies
and the Legion Auxiliary putting
on a party for the little tots Satur
day afternoon and you don’t have
to carry your draft registration card
any more—but it’s worth keeping as
a means of identification—so think
twice before you throw it away
and Dave Risser, restaurateur, back
on the job after a siege of flu, found
a bouquet of cut flowers sent by
some of his thotful friends awaiting
him on the lunchroom counter—the
flowers, there were four of them,
presumably were roses—at least the
label on the container, a bottle, said
four roses and an old landmark,
the big maple tree on Mrs. J. S.
Steiner’s lawn at South Main
Franklin streets across from
postoffice was cut down Monday
and so enters April.

ticket office. Or simply write to Chesapeake &
in an all-states fishing derby by
landing two of the largest fish in the
contest—one tipped the scales at 23
pounds and the other at 30—and on
light fishing tackle, too. Oldtimers
said it couldn’t be done and could
scarcely believe their eyes when Don
did it.
Those homing pigeons really come
home—one picked up on the College
campus last week was sold three
years ago by Robert Potts, Bluffton
pigeon fancier, to a Defiance party.
Since that time Potts has remodeled
the bird house at his home on Spring
street and the pigeon, seeking its old
home there, apparently w’as confused
because of the change. It was taken
to Pott’s home.
Back from a 10,000 mile auto trip
thru the west are Mr. and Mrs. Men
no Schumacher and their son Nelson
and Mrs. Philip Steiner, with no mis
hap except one flat tire. They were
gone for three months and drove thru
18 states. Enroute they visited Mr.
and Mrs. Adam Brillhart, at Hobart,
Okla., former residents here. Mr.
Brillhart, cousin of Mrs. Schumacher,
has since died. Also they visited Mr.
Schumacher’s brother, Sam at Phoe
nix, Ariz., and his sister, Mrs. David
Shank at Lomita, Calif. Mrs. Steiner
spent some time with her daughter,
Mrs. Karl Quenzer, the former Mae
anna Steiner, in Eos Angeles.
Mr. and Mrs. D. C. Spangler of
Stanton, Neb., celebrated their Gold
en wedding anniversary last Sunday.
Oldtimers wall recall the family as
residents of Orange township 47
years ago when they moved west
ward. Mr. Spangler was at one time
a teacher in the Orange township
schools. All of their ten children w’ere
present at the Golden wedding.
The surrey with the fringe on top
—you’ve heard a lot about that in the
last year or two on the radio—but
what you haven’t heard of is the
surrey of Walter Augsburger’s that
brought $40 at the community auc
tion at Kidron, in Wayne county a
week ago.
The surrey, a rubber tire job, was
bought by Augsburger back at the
time of the first World war and has
been standing in his buggy shed for
years.

Where Honored
THE BLUFFTON NEWS. BLUFFTON, OHIO
are little more than museum pieces,
there is a good market for them in
the Amish communities in Wayne
and Holmes counties of eastern Ohio.
The surrey, trundled down to Kidron
was put up at the weekly community
auction and altho perhaps a little too
fancy for some of the plain people,
it was bid in by an Amish farmer who
has doubtless by this time put it to
good use.
Promoter of the Kidron auction,
one of the largest of its kind in the
state, is S. C. "Cy“ Sprunger, former
Bluffton college student who has
made the weekly auction one of the
statewide note.
Maybe you never knew that Raw
son had a newspaper—but it did,
some fifty years ago and was pub
lished under the name of the Rawson
Herald.
From the issue of September 20,
1895, yellowed with age, we read
that:
“On last Saturday, William Lloyd
Garrison Murray of Bluffton had his
brother Med to haul him to Mt. Cory
where he took the train for Findlay
and purchased a marriage certificate
which read ‘Miss Carrie E. Ramsey
of McComb and W. L. G. Murray of
Bluffton.’ He came back to the P. A.
Y W. railroad crossing and walked
into Bluffton. Sunday, bright and
early he went to Leipsic and the
couple were married. Congratula
tions, of course are in order.”
Mr. and Mrs. Murray now living
on South Main street celebrated
their Golden wedding anniversary
two years ago last summer.
