Maggie,
 You are correct to assume this paper is a Lima, Ohio newspaper.  I am
sorry that I didn't make that clear.   The  paper was published in Lima,
Ohio every morning except Monday.  I am now quoting the newspaper.
"This special edition has been prepared in honor of the Knights of
Pythias and the Pythian Sisters, who are to be the guests of the City of
Lima during the present week.  This is not a republican advertisement,
it is the papers name, published in Lima, Ohio, Allen County.

It is also a memorial to Justus H. RATHBONE, the Founder of the Order,
whose death occurred in Lima in the year 1889.  The article continues on
and I won't bother you with it unless you wish.

There are surnames from all over the state and pictures of some.  Of
course, there is names from Logan County due to the close proximity to
Indian Lake.  Indian Lake was a real swinging place then.  I am willing
to type the names but I don't want to exceed any boundaries of this
list.

Unfortunately or fortunately Maggie, I also have papers from
Springfield, OH and Bellefontaine, OH as my Mom was a historian I
guess.  My Grandad was a printer by trade and owned and editied his own
newspaper so I have been blessed with stories of Ohio.   I am just
learning the ropes  all of this but I have been helped by you and kind
folks on this list.  I don't want to do anything that isn't proper.  I
tend to get enthusiastic when something says 1910.  But it seemed my way
living in Michigan to offer some help to others.  Thanks.
Thelma
