GALLIPOLIS - For three years and
ten months Riverby had been silent. Moss
carpeted its brick walls and softened the
big hewn stones of the wall bordering the
northeast line.
The view of the mighty Ohio River
through the old glass was dimmed by the
dust of the seasons and leaves piled up

under the evergreens and in the corners of
the sunken garden.
And Riverby was very silent. 'Uith the
silence of old things, of a white haired
woman, of a full grown garden, of a room
left untouched by years.
Riverby's beloved mistress, Mrs.
Charles Elmer Holzer, Sr., who had been
hospitalized during this time, died July 5.

Meanwhile, the French Art Colony had
been looking for a home. It had grown
smce its founding in 1964 and was too big
for its quarters in the K of P Hall. Members of the colony's board had looked at
many homes, had considered several.
Dr. Donald Thaler, chairman of the

MIDDLEPORT - Mrs. Harold E.
(Virginia) Hubbard, S. Fourth Ave., was
taken to Veterans Memorial Hospital
about 10:42 a.m. Saturday suffering injuries received when she was struck by a
car on North Second Ave.
Mrs. Hubbard had gotten out of her
car and started across the street when she
was struck by a car driven by Robert H.
Bratton, Middleport. Mrs. Hubbard said
she had looked before crossing the street,
but did not see Bratton's vehicle.

It was an unbelievable stroke of luck,
one that still sends chills down the spines
of those involved. That beautiful Riverby,
which had drawn admiring eyes of visitors
and residents for years, could poss1bly
become their new home, was almost too
good for the Art Colony to believe.
The Holzer home at 530 First Ave. was
built about 1857 by Dr. and Mrs. George W.
Livesay. The late Dr. Charles E. Holzer,
Sr. acquired the home and an extrq lot
from Dr. and Mrs. William C. H.
Needham. The house has the distinction of
having had only three owners in its 114
years. All the owners were physicians.
The founder of Holzer Hospital and
Mrs. Holzer called in an architect who
helped them plan improvements which
would not destroy the old features, but
which would make the house more livable.
One of the most outstanding features
in the house is the floating stairway, called
the "most beautiful in this area ." It was
built by a master stair builder.

MIDDLEPORT Paige
Carr, at right, Meigs County's
Easter Seal Child, places her
contribution starting the
"School Week of Giving" to
Easter Seals from March 22 to
March 26. A container such as
the one shown will be in each of
the classrooms throughout
Meigs County.
The Meigs County Society for
Crippled Children and Adults is
relying greatly upon the contributions from the adult
residents of Meigs County who
have received their seals in the
mail, but the society felt that
since help is given to children as
well as adults, the children
should have a share in the
worthy cause.
The children and youth of the
following schools are asked to
bring their coins to class any of
the days from March 22-March
26, and place them in the containers provided. The schools
participating are:
Bradbury
Elementary,
Chester Elementary, Eastern
High, Harrisonville Elementary, Letart Elementary, Meigs
Junior High , Middleport
Elementary, Pomeroy

Elementary,
Racine
Elementary, Riverview
Elementary,
Rutland
Elementary, Salem Center
Elementary,
Salisbury
Elementary, Southern High,
Southern Junior High, Syracuse
Elementary, and Tuppers
Plains Elementary.
The Meigs High School will
not be participating since each
year the students contribute
toward a community chest
which they distribute to various
organizations in Meigs County.
Although Easter Seals are not
included in any of the
organizations, it was felt that
the Meigs High School has
helped the cause of Easter Seals
greatly since the typing classes
at the school has not only typed
addresses on the index cards for
the new filing system, but also
all of the 5,700 envelopes that
were used in the Easter Seal

mailing.
The amount that the children
and youth of . Meigs County
place in the containers found in
their classrooms will be made
known as soon as possible.
Parents and teachers desiring
more information about this
"School Week of Giving," are to
call Mrs. Charles Simons at 9925055.
This is the first year in the
history of the Meigs County
Society for Crippled Children
and Adults that the children and
youth will be asked to participate in this way. The
residents of Meigs County are
urged to answer their Easter
Seal letters - first, and then
have their child use any coins
around the house to benefit
other children more unfortunate than they by placing
them in the containers, with the
Lily on them, at their school.

concerts and jam sessions are held both as

The sanctuary of Old West Church is the
scene of rock concerts and such to
"celebrate the soul of humanity," according to the pastor, Dr. William Albert. Once
a week the sanctuary is used for meetings
to discuss the housing situation in the west
end section of the city. The sanctuary also
has been used for rallies, candidates'
nights, and once for a meeting of the
council on religion and the homosexual.
"Democracy is a bringing together of
people," Dr. Albert said. "Any group
concerned about community wellbeing can
make use of the sanctuary."
Actors' Sanctuary
Charles Street Meeting House in Boston
gave its sanctuary over to the Boston cast
of the production "Hair" last year.
"We have no pews in the sanctuary
precisely for things like this," said the
pastor, the Rev. Randall Gibson. "Pews
get in the way of making use of the sanctuary for dancing. We had a dance for Gay
liberation and for female gay liberation. T
am a dancer and I teach dancing in the
sanctuary every Tuesday night. We see the
sanctuary as a place that lives and doesn't
divide life into two parts, one secular and
one profane."
In San Francisco's Catholic archdiocese
an example of the trend to double life for
churches is Santa Teresa's in San Jose
which recently built a multiple purpose
structure with no fixed pews and an altar
which can be closed off. In San Francisco
proper, St. Andrew's, a liberal parish, is
planning to build a similar facility.
The National Presbyterian Church and
center in Washington, D.C., has hosted a
goodly number of concerts and heard the
strains of Bach, Brahms, Mozart and such
contemporary works as Russell Woolen's
"In Martyrum Memoriam" put on by

One of the more experimental ventures
at Washington Cathedral was a performance by the African drummers and
dancers of the New Thing Art and Architecture. Group. The New Thing received
its earliest encouragement from the cathedral and in the past year has become
widely recognized as one of the most innovative groups in the field of black
culture.
~on-Religious Role
From its earliest days the cathedral has
sought an active role in non-religious
fields. Today, the announcement of a
special program at the Washington
Cathedral brings hundreds to attend-a
wider congregation than those who attend
the regular religious services. Over the

"We are not religious if we're not involved in the areas of social concern," he
said. "Our attitude is one of 'Don't tell me,
show me'."
Dancing Nun
Many ch-;rches ·nationwide have modern
dance programs, rock groups and folk
music as part of liturgical or worship
service. Sellwood Methodist Church in
Portland, Ore., reached some kind of point
in ecumenism recently. The dance
program one Sunday featured a Roman
Catholic nun.
UPI's religion editor, Louis Cassels,
says music and dancing in the sanctuary is
clearly recorded in the Old Testament as
an expression of joyous gratitude to God.
In a church procession recently, Cassels
observed a small boy who summed it all up
with a banner. The banner read:
"Hooray For God."

has become a major factor in Washington

In Philadelphia, the cnurcnes are taking
their cue from their heritage in that city of
brother1y love. In the Episcopal diocese,
for example, churches are providing space
and in some cases instruction for Head

The Rev. H. Francis Hines, public

churches fits in with an aim at "administering to the issues of life."

POMEROY - President Richard M.
Nixon has proclaimed March "Red Cross
:\olonth." He said:
"The highest ideal of mankind is love,
and the great challenge is to infuse love into
the decisions and actions of daily living.
'Love cannot be a mere abstraction,' the
American religious leader Mary Baker
Eddy wrote nearly a century ago; we must
'make strong demands on love, call for
active witnesses to prove it, and noble
sacrifices and grand achievements as its
•·esults.' At about the same time, her contemporary Clara Barton was founding an
organization that meets this challenge
superbly - the American Red Cross.
"Today the hands of the Red Cross
reach across the ~ation and, through the
League of Red Cross Societies, around the
world, to bring relief wherever disaster,
disease, misfortune, or war causes human
suffering. The American Red Cross is
chartered by Congress but its financing is
purely voluntary, compelled by compassion
alone. The success of its vital humanitarian
mission rests upon generous gifts of time
and money from millions of Americans."

Gilligan Plan
Would Kill
Ohio Education
DAYTON (UPI) - Wright
State University President
Brage Golding says Gov. John
J. Gilligan's proposal to have
students pay back state subsidies to colleges would "kill
higher education in Ohio."
Golding said the only way the
proposal would work would be
for other states to enact similar
plans. He said Ohio students
would go out of state to school
and few would come from out of
state. Golding also said
Gilligan's proposal to freeze
enrollments at four-year public
universities
would
have
"disastrous" results for Wright
State.

Art Colony Leases
Old Holzer Home
(Continued from page 1)
The carpentering craft had reached a high degree of perfection by the middle of the 19th century, but these men who did
perfect cabinet work, made mantles of Adam design, fitted
paneling with such precision. would not undertake to build a
winding stairway. The Riverby stairway seems to defy the laws of
gravity since there is absolutely no support other than the wall
into which it is tied. The railing side hangs free in the air.
Another WlUSual feature of Riverby is the plastering. The
Hessian soldiers who remained in America after the
Revolutionary war were masters of the art of plastering. AroWld
the light fixture of the music room, the plaster 1s molded to form a
framework for the light fixture itself. And from this in prismatic
beauty hangs a Waterford crystal chandelier.
The Holzers tore off the old stables and outbuildings which
detracted from the appearance of the grounds and replaced them
with a swimming pool (which has since been filled in) and tennis
court.
And they called their new home ·'Riverby."
In spite of her 114 years, River by was pronoWlced soWld this
winter by a committee sponsored by the Ohio Arts Council.
Thereupon the eager FAC obtained use of it for a year. They have
this promise and a mountain high heap of hope that they will be
able to raise the funds to purchase it outright when the year is up.
They have laWlched a membership camapaign and began
with tender, loving care to spruce up River by. Their first target
date was today and the reception for new FAC members. Plans
are to have the first public event April26.
With elbow grease and sweat, they have worked, and worked
and worked. They have painted, scrubbed, patched, plastered and
waxed. Now they are ready
And their enthus1asm is boundless.
''It's exciting," said Peggy Evans, of the board of trustees
and an art colony member of long standing. "It is a wonderful
feeling of satisfaction knowing you are doing something that
others will enjoy and that will last long after you and your
children are gone."
"My adrenalin is so high," Jan Thaler said. "I want this
project to succeed so much." These women, along with many
other volunteers have spent many hours getting the house ready
for today's event.
"I always thought artists were 'way out' Jennie Lou Hudson,
(FAC president with her husband) said. "Now I realize they are
the thinkers and can accomplish a lot."
"This is a wonderful opportunity for our commWlity," Ann
Jenkins said. "Now scout leaders and school students won't have
to go to Huntington or Columbus to see fine art."
And River by's beauty won't be o\\ned by one family, or be
enjoyed by a few, it will become a part of the lives of coWltless
Gallia Countians, old and young.
The more than 6,000 tounsts who come annually to Gallipolis
to tour the Our House Museum (a Holzer gift to the community
and Gallipolis htstory) now will have some place else they can ''go
inside and enjoy."
A visit to the Old French City will become a more meaningful
and enriching experience if the colony succeeds at Riverby.
What better day could be found for a new beginning for
Ri verby, for its doors to be opened again, and for the sound of the
voices of those \\ith dreams to be heard again in the lovely sun-lit
rooms, than this, the first day of spring?

! Corner By Charlene Hoeflich

POMEROY - The World War I veterans' memorial in the
American Legion Park on Mill St. in Middleport, has quite a
history and it was all recalled this week when a picture of out-{)f\ town dignitaries and local residents attending its dedication in
• 1928 was presented to Feeney-Bennett Post 128.
The picture was folU1d among the belongings of the late Ferd
Hunker, father of Francis Klein. It was passed along to Dorothy
Harley who felt it should be appropriately displayed. She had it
framed and gave it to Legion Commander Paul Haptonstall, and
it now hangs in the Legion hall.
Captain Tom Jones, state senator at the time, invited an
impressive group of dignitaries in for the dedication and they
came with all their entourage. The picture was taken on the lawn
of the Jones home following a dinner party there the day of the
dedication.
The idea for the memorial originated with Mr. Hunker and
James Harley. Mr. HWJker sketched a picture of the memorial,
Mr. Harley did a model of it, and the two set out to raise the
money. They even had the famous Sgt. Alvin York come here for a
lecture.
The memorial was built at the old Pythian Park, campsite of
Company C, and then moved to the Mill St. Park. Tom Jones,
captain of Company C, was influential politically. Even the
governor came.

A RECEPTION TO give Gladys Mowrey a royal sendoff to
her new home in California is planned next Sunday at the Middleport Church of Christ.
Meigs Salon 710, Eight and Forty, of which Gladys is a
charter member, is one of the sponsors of the open reception from
2 to 4 p.m. Her many friends are invited.
Gladys is in the process of selling her home at Laurel Cliff and
will be leaving here around the first of April. Plans are for a son to
drive to California with her.
After almost a lifetime in the Bend area, Gladys is sure to be
missed. She's been very active in the Auxiliary of Drew Webster
Post 39 and the Middleport Church of Christ. She now wants to live
close to the three children of her late son.

WITH THE THOUSANDS of people at the basketball tournament in Athens Thursday night, who would believe that a
Middleport couple would walk in and sit down next to a former
Middleport couple.
That's what happened to Dale and Marjorie Walburn. Sitting
next were Henry and Jean Null of Crooksville, the team which,
• incidentally, lost by one point. Henry is principal of Crooksville
High School and while in Meigs County taught at both the Middleport and Rutland schools (before consolidation). Jean was
Middleport librarian about 14 years. Such a nice couple!
HATTIE RUSSELL IS all settled in her retirement home in
St. Petersburg, F~ . She moved there in January from California
where she had spP tmany years after leaving Pomeroy.
Hattie doesn let any dust settle under her feet. She swims
every day, surfs requently, goes dancing, and tomorrow will
• celebrate her birti day. (How old? We know, but we'll never tell.
After all, you're only as old as you feel!)
Her new address is 3352 61st St., N ., St. Petersburg, Fla. 33710.

Witches Described
MIDDLEPORT - Witchcraft, from the early days of
• the Goddess Diana to today's
flourishing West Coast cults,
was discussed by Mrs. Harold
Sauer who reviewed "Witches"
by T. C. Lethbridge at Wednesday night's meeting of the
Middleport Literary Club.
Preceding her review, Mrs.
Sauer told of the author, now
residing in Devin, England, and
... his keen interest in extra sensory perception. She said that in
the book he deals with
generalities instead of specifics
from folklore and hear-say,
merging several schools of
thought.
Mrs. Sauer said that in the
book, the author goes into the
magic and rituals of the Goddess Diana who "could bless or
curse." The book deals with the
power of the mind, faith
healing, reincarnation and all
paganism and rites of superstition, she reported.
Referring to the West Coast
cults which are moving into
prominence, Mrs . Sauer
commented that there is talk of
• devil worship as the prevailing
' factor.

The second book reviewed
was "A Beggar in Jerusalem"
by Elie Wiesel. Mrs. Ben
Philson described it as a book
written about the six day war
between the Israelites and the
Arabs. She said that when the
Jews took over the city, they
immediately went to the wailing
wall. There the beggars told and
re-told the stories of their
survival.
The author escaped from a
concentration camp when six
million Jews were exterminated and believes that he
was spared for some purpose,
the reviewer said. He now lives
in Manhattan and has written
eight books. Mrs. Philson
described as one which is interpreted according to personal
belief. It relates to the Jewish
history from Christ to Hitler
and is the story of Jewish
resistance and persecution.
The meeting was held at the
country home of Mrs. Sauer.
Mrs. Richard Owen presided
and welcomed the members
and a guest, Mrs. Roy Cassell,
who responded to roll call with a
comment on Israel. Mrs. Sauer
served candy.

YOUTH ASKED FOR IT !
This column is for young people, their problems and
pleasures, their troubles and fun . As with the rest of Helen Help
Us :, it welcomes laughs but won't dodge a serious question with a
brush-off.
Send your teenage questions to YOUTH ASKED FOR IT, care
of Helen Help US! this newspaper.
AND STILL THEY COME ...
Dear Helen:
After reading "What is a Girl Friend?", ' 'Boy Friend" "Big
Brother," "Grandmother," etc., all concrete ideas, I decided to
write something on an infinite idea, so here's
WHAT IS HAPPINESS?
H pm ss IS
r hain a tall ac; your boy friend.
Ha pmessis
room wtthdutfighting.
It' findmg so
t your ontdoor.
It s gomg sh
fmdmg everything you wanted
without hunting 1.
n stores, and then buying those things
because you can afford them.
Happiness is finally getting the splinter out.
Happiness is a snowstorm m aking everything peaceful and
white ... . and a shoveled driveway (that you didn't have to
shovel).
Happiness is walking on the grass barefooted on the first
warm day of spring.
Happiness is a climbing tree.
It's having your boy friend win his wrestling match or football
game.
It's a fuzzy sweater, either on you or your boy friend.
Happiness is being absent on the day of the surprise quiz or,
better yet, knowing all the answers and finding out you aren't as
dumb as you thought you were.
Happiness is lots of presents on your birthday.
It's some orange, black, red, yellow, white and pink jelly
beans, but no green ones.
Happiness is discovering how cute and lovable ducks are.
Happiness is the hiccoughs - after they're gone.
It's sleeping in your own bed after the company leaves.
It's talking far into the night at a slwnber party and finding
out others have the same problems you do, only maybe worse.
Happiness is getting all ·'Bs" on your report card.
Happiness is doing something dumb that you'll get mocked
for , and then looking around to discover no one is watching!
It's one thing to one person, another to another, but mostly
happiness is all tied up with the feeling that someone cares. Even
walking in spring grass alone is happier when you know that you
can tell about it afterwards. - DIANE
