       WHAT THEY SAY.
          _______

      Henry W. Miller, after listening to an orchestra
      over the radio at the Masonic club rooms--"That
      sounds like Rat Gould playing in heaven."

          _______

       Mrs. Samuel Persing--The other day we had fine
       strawberry shortcake for dinner, made by our
       daughters, Mrs. Bessie Neipp, from berries picked
       in our own patch.

          _______

       Frank H. Guffey--Never before have I seen a time
       when it took the price of three tons of cabbage
       to buy one ton of soft coal.

          _______

       William H. Bacon--It was 74 years ago last Sunday
       that I arrived at Sandusky with my parents, after
       a long trip from England.  I remember that
       Michael Rife, father of the late Robert Rife, who
       was trading at Sandusky that day, very kindly
       brought my mother and her youngest children in
       his ox-cart as far as Coopertown on North Ridge. 
       Our first home was an 80-acre farm near that
       place, which afterwards belonged to Uriah Lemon. 
       One of my most vivid recollections of the early
       days is of a "logging party" on the farm of Albert 
       Guinall, father of our townsman Frank Guinall.  
       Times have greatly changed since then, but as I was about 
       15 years old when we came to this county I remember 
       distinctly many incidents connected with the trip 
       across the ocean and with the pioneer days.
