could see evidences in the
floor that designated where
the men and the women sat.
This was a real Quaker type of
home. We saw original locks,
windows and the Bible type
doors. The home sits on a
uatural lemony type of spring
and the lemonade we were
served that day was made
with the water from this very
spring. The water tem-
perature is always 46 degrees.
Colon used throughout were
the Williamsburg ones. On the
second floor the wide hall was
made into a cozy T.V. room.
An old mail box in red, white
and blue had been turned into
a refirigerator in the family
room. There is a ghost here
who performs his strange
tricks. He is the son, Ben-
jLmin, who was once
ostracized and is thought to
return to even the score.
Americana in all its forms is
found in this house and is
practically used. Aqua
Springs is on the National
Register. The last home was
Pendleton House on Arden
Road. It is the largest log
home built in the tristate area
and is now covered over with
stone. Cl 'ence Martin, Ill,
and his wife live her and I
think rd never leave their
fabulous enclosed solarium
and open san deck which gave
a breathtaking view of the
hmdsoape.
And now time out for some
larnin' -- did you know an
epicure is a poet who writes
epics? Anatomy is the study of
heavenly bodies? Thomas
Paine was a rare in-
dividual obsessed by
common sense? Rome was
overthrown by the invasion of
the Hung, Visigoths and
Osteopaths?
With the youngsters, here is

won a blue ribbon in the Visual
Presentation Contest of the 4-
