. STRANGE ZONING
v
mili
Talking about zoning with a group
of Supervisors last week, we got to
discussing industry in the Back
Mountain as compared to industry
in such places as Mountaintop.
It was pointed out that Crestwood
Industrial Park up there is an at-
tractive come-on to plant planners,
as is proximity to the turnpike, the
Shortway, and the big cities.
Since the board was interested
in how our zoning back here would
affect decision of industry to move
in, I mentioned the Luzerne County
Planning Commission proposed or-
| dinance to zone five Back Moun-
tain municipalities which do not
themselves have zoning ordinances.
These are Lake, Jackson, Franklin,
Ross, and Dallas Townships.
I said that I had studied the
~ County’s zoning maps, and had
driven around to trace them, and
apparently the only places in the
Back Mountain zoned for business
are Linears, Natona, and an auto
~ graveyard on a dirt road below the
institution in Jackson —Ray’s Auto
¥ Parts. :
} OUT OF THE DARK
A Fall Fair committee member,
working the night before at the
grounds, decided to show her kids
the funny animals in Henry Von-
derheid’s pitch-dark Red Rock Game
Farm tent, exploring by flashlight.
Expecting to look in on a batch of
«gapering gooni-birds, they did a
o turn and a half when their beam
“landed on two greasy, beady-eyed
| boa constrictors sitting there look-
| ing nasty.

The First Fall Fair couldn't have asked for nicer weather. Re-
sponse was terrific, from the initial parade to the blasting off of
the fireworks late Saturday night, >»
Dust rose in clouds as babies were trundled around the ring
in their strollers, escorted by bemused parents, cheered on by
grandmothers, maiden aunts, and sheepish looking uncles. A prize
for the infant who bawled the loudest had to be wrapped up again
in tissue paper. Not a single baby yipped. Hypnotized by the bright
sunshine, they blinked cheerfully. Judges who had expected to
leave the grounds in haste, pursued by a tar and feather squad,
drew a long breath and awarded prizes to everybody.
There were some highly improbable powder-puff poultry speci-
mens wearing pastel feathers in green and pink and blue. Folks
who were not in the know considered reporting the matter to the
SPCA, but it turns out the odd looking chickens were wearing their
natural plumage, not wigs, and not only that, they had green eggs
to prove it.
The hobby booths, protected against the dust of the ring by
plastic backdrops, attracted a lot of attention. Working with dec-
orator brushes, Mrs. George Montgomery demonstrated correct brush
work for Early American flowers and designs. Helen Gross displayed
- furniture and tinware decorated by her students, among them an
arrow-splat plank bottom chair painted by Herb Smith, one of her
prize pupils.
Paul Rodda and Ellie showed some nice mosaic work in Stefan
Hellersperk’s booth; Mrs. Robert Crosson presided over a loom in
another booth; Mrs. Charles Gates’ beautiful hooked rugs were on
display at Mrs. Stanley Hozempa’s needle-work booth.
Mrs. Arnott Jones had an artistic monochromatic arrangement
of bleached branch and seedpods, very handsome. Anthony Broody’s
exotic plants attracted a lot of attention.
Down at the end of the line, Andy Preslopski’s exhibit of roots,
each expressing its own warped personality, was an eye-catcher.
One of those monsters glaring at you from a mantel-piece would
convince you that you were on the very fringes of the Outer Limits
of sanity as well as space.
No Fall Fair would be complete without animals. So to go along
with tradition, there was a cow and its calf, both courtesy of Roy
Squier who had exhibited them as his Blue Ridge FFA project in a
number of shows.
Not to mention a pair of hissing geese, a denatured skunk, and
more weird looking bantams than you could shake a stick at.
The art booth was reminiscent
of the Library Auction art stall.
And also reminiscent of the Auction was the ticket booth on
wheels, Stefan Hellersperk’s brain-child of several years ago, dis-~
pensing tickets for hot dogs and hamburgers,
No use trying to kid us — that display of Rave’s Nursery

the uncanny deduction which translates “That sort of

classic.
Several years ago a woman came into the library
and relaxed in a chair by the desk.
‘What a marvelous kind of a job,” she quoth,
sitting here and handing out books.”
No conception of the actual physical handling of
books, the heavy loads guaranteed to flatten the arches, |’
the spade-work in keeping the shelves filled and up to

Not to mention the off-days spent in driving to Phila-
delphia to hunt children’s books in the second-hand store.
It was a good job, and the Back Mountain appre-
ciates it.
Good luck, Miriam.
Now that Miss Miriam Lathrop has been absent from
her desk at Back Mountain Memorial Library for almost
two years, a good many people are tardily discovering
that there is more to being a librarian than meets the
eye, and thinking of the many services that Miriam ren-
dered, over and above her normal duties.
Miriam was dedicfted to the Back Mountain, and to
the Library. Very few people have any idea of the amount
of time she gave, or how deeply the good of the Library
. was imbedded in her every thought.

The one-room schools have been absorbed in larger
units now, and no longer does the glad shout, “Here comes
the Liberry Lady” resound in those old-time structures,
where a potbellied stove still supplied the heat, and a
bucket of drinking water sat on a convenient bench.
It seems incredible that so short a time ago there
was no indoor plumbing for a goodly percentage of the
school population of the more strictly rural areas where
Miss Lathrop delivered her boxes of books.
The books came back, dogeared and in need of patch-
ing, to be replaced by other boxes of books.

Next Tuesday is the two hun-
dredth anniversary of the little
known first Massacre in Wyoming
Valley, which took place October
15, 1763. The second and better
known WYOMING MASSACRE fol-
lowed a battle on July 3, 1778.
It could be expected that actual
details of any event might be rather
indefinite after two hundred years
under the best of circumstances.
However the history of Wyoming
Valley is made more complicated
by the fact that there were several
conflicting parties involved, each of
which could see only its own side of
the story. And to add to the con-
fusion, in retelling ‘through several
generations, conditions were magni-
fied to the extent that events were
created that never happened. And
some of the items printed even in
history books were entirely false, as
since developed by careful research.
It seems undisputable that every-
one considered Wyoming Valley a
very fine spot. There were no Indians
living in the area continuously for
long periods, tribes moving in and
out as circumstances required, some-
times staying a few years, some-
times even less. After the Susque-
hannocks were vanquished by the
Iroquois about 1675, the Valley was
held to be under the Iroquois juris-
diction, and Delawares, Shawnees,
etc. who came and went did so with
their permission and sometimes by
direct orders.
The Valley. was included in ter-
ritory claimed both by Connecticut
and Pennsylvania. Each tried to be
friendly with involved Indians, each

other Indians on the grounds that
the Iroquois had 48 sachems and
the sale had not been properly auth-
orized. Agents of the Penns on the
same day at the same place bought
other described lands of othersac-
hems. In the meantime New England
settlers had established themselves
along the Delaware.
Teedyuscung, local Delaware Chief,
warned off surveyors in 1775 and
additional settlement everywhere
was retarded by the French and
Indian War. In 1762 the Susque-
hanna Company started to make
settlements by authorizing two
hundred men to proceed. The first
to arrive were again warned by
Indians, About a hundred erected
some buildings near present Mill
Creek on the Wilkes-Barre side of
the River and left after ten days.
A few others remained and planted
grain, ‘then left for Connecticut to
spend the winter.
A large movement was planned
for 1763. Teedyuscung again ob-
to death in his cabin and twenty
other houses also burnt and the
Indians fled. The Penn people blam-
ed the Connecticut people for the
fires and murders, which they de-
nied. Some blamed the Iroquois who
had previously been displeased by
Teedyuscung. Others claimed there
had been a drunken frolic in pro-
gress and ‘the Indians had fired
their own town. ~
Shortly thereafter Connecticut
settlers with families arrived in the
Valley. Records are indefinite but

Indians involved to work against
the other, and both sides appealed
to the King and English government
to help get rid of the other side.
The Iroquois, living in what is
now New York State, extending
down to Tioga Point, preferred to
keep ‘the Valley clear of all white
settlers, from either side, keeping
only such subject Indians as would
create a buffer defense to their own
territories. They announced to Coun-
cils, sometimes with whites present,
that they would never sell Wyoming,
and threatened dire consequences to
anyone who tried to settle there.
However at Albany, in 1754, eigh-
teen sachems sold the area to the
Connecticut Susquehanna Co. set-
tlers, by name of individual grantees
and not to the Company as a whole
or to the Province of Connecticut.
This purchase was denounced by

Solicitor William Valentine said
that the ‘Jwnship code explicitly
provided for the said assessment
method, and there was nothing the
beard could do about it. It was sug-
gested that Carpenter Road con-

Road Funds

meeting, federal funds of $36,000
were granted ‘the township for

to official telegram from Congress-
man Daniel Flood. At September's

ael Godek revealed that the govern-
ment had looked over Lehman’s
