A name or location that escaped you the first time might be an important link. If it has been some time since the first reading, you may have new information that will be confirmed by the second reading. So simple, so productive some times.</span><br />

It's time to get back to it and what better than a short story about elections. Don't panic, this is not about politics. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="font-size: small;">My mother was born before women were allowed to vote. By the time she was old enough, women had the privilege. Mom was always a republican until she voted for John Kennedy. When I was learning the presidents in school she would always say Roosevelt, Roosevelt, Roosevelt, Roosevelt (not as a complement) when we came to FDR. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="font-size: small;"> Dad was born in 1912, the youngest of a family of nine. Life was not easy. He always aligned with the Democrats. He was a hard worker and never took a hand out from anyone but he was ever ready to help others. </span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="font-size: small;">Mom and dad never seriously argued over politics. When they went to vote they would joke that one would go in and vote and the other would go in and cancel the previous vote.</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="font-size: small;">More than once women would say to mom, "you mean he doesn't tell you how to vote." I guess they really didn't know either of my parents very well. Dad would never have presumed he had the right to tell mom how to vote. Mom would never have tolerated him doing so. </span></b><br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: small;">Mom comes from a long line of independent, tough women. She listens to all the news programs and keeps up with current affairs. At almost 96 years old, she just exercised her right to vote, Obama 2012.</span></b>jlshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07870423651123495209noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182201157620482544.post-23615680707290412172012-04-30T22:36:00.001-04:002012-05-03T23:48:02.576-04:00Clem and Martha PINE MICHEL<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">I found this very interesting in the fact I do not believe this woman was as old as the obituary states. I am sure the Susan Kline and the Susaan Cline on the stone are the same person, as my father told me stories about these people. Census records, death records and the tombstone as well as death records of siblings all indicate she was born approximately the time the tombstone shows. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;"><br />

</div> <span style="font-size: large;">My high school was actually a first through twelve school. The entire enrollment probably ranged for 150-175 students per year. In grade school there were two grades per room. Jr. high and high school shared the study hall which also served as assembly, home room, and the closest thing we had to lockers. Each student had their own desk in this room. This was comparable to todays locker or cubbie. Books and supplies not in use that particular period were left in your desk.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> The school was the center of the community. There were basketball games, (after all this is Indiana), chile suppers, fish fries, and turkey dinners. Many students were second and third generation at the school. Most of use attended our entire 12 years there. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> The building was very modern for the time. We had a large cafeteria with wonderful lunches. For the most part, we had great teachers who cared for their students. Some of them had been students there themselves. Teachers always attended after school events. It was expected, they were part of the community. I realize now they actually volunteered a lot of their time to chaperone class party, sell tickets for ball games, and sponsor class plays and programs. I doubt many of us today would work all those overtime hours with out pay.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> My graduating class had ten members. The high school closed after my class graduated. The grade school remained open for a few more years. The building is gone and a house now stands on the site.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> We don't hold class reunions. There is an Alumni Banquet each year for all graduates, family, friends, and community members. Even though the school has been closed for over 45 years, the banquet has an annual attendance of about 125 or more. In its own way the school is still the heart of the community.</span>jlshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07870423651123495209noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182201157620482544.post-64216718629171031272011-11-11T09:52:00.000-05:002011-11-11T09:52:35.930-05:00Ruth CLINE PENCE<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiC4HLcAb3vmhEujuOUjaZsQ7Gu7pDfDUJkRMlwEIdA267ENBwCOJaM6wZymjDkc7GPEY-NG2OFSky_bnZaYThqlStMm7oJ9xJC-IJwOChYKnk210dF7Bez2pwUrlFVZYi1SGYGuIdRVV4/s1600/img014-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiC4HLcAb3vmhEujuOUjaZsQ7Gu7pDfDUJkRMlwEIdA267ENBwCOJaM6wZymjDkc7GPEY-NG2OFSky_bnZaYThqlStMm7oJ9xJC-IJwOChYKnk210dF7Bez2pwUrlFVZYi1SGYGuIdRVV4/s400/img014-1.jpg" width="205" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPCOUokvLGhPnr8eATQfB-3J8MXXADBp5vvpGnfBf2Qf-YJJ6n_bY8ryTnQzc10W8_LHzGsNaL8t2ZWDsuNknSUPUOy8x4Y4Ll-yVhv1hkePZKbKRqMow4vcLif4dp6TqchcSbel8NOe0/s1600/img015-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="387" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPCOUokvLGhPnr8eATQfB-3J8MXXADBp5vvpGnfBf2Qf-YJJ6n_bY8ryTnQzc10W8_LHzGsNaL8t2ZWDsuNknSUPUOy8x4Y4Ll-yVhv1hkePZKbKRqMow4vcLif4dp6TqchcSbel8NOe0/s400/img015-1.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />
