Book excerpt: Excerpt from Past and Present of Shelby County, Iowa, Vol. 2 Mr. Lewis concluded his services with the church early in 1888. And the pulpit was not regularly supplied until the call of Rev. J. H. Carpenter, who began his work June 1. 1888. And was installed July 10, 1889. Mr. Carpenter remained the leader of the church until July 27, 1895, this being the longest that any minister has been pastor of this church. On the first of January, 1896, Rev. Albert Aston became the pastor in charge, and continued until. January I, 1901. Exactly five years. During his ministry the church made the greatest growth it had made up to that time. The seed that had been faithfully sown was bringing forth its fruit. During the seven years following the work of Mr. Aston the church was served by Rev. W'alter Irwin, May I. 1901, to November 1, 1903; Rev. Thomas Leard, January 1904. To February 25, 1906; and Rev. R. S. May 1, 1906, to August 1, 1908. Rev. 7. B. Lampe first supplied Shelby about four months during the summer of 1909. And returned as pastor on September I, 1910. -\t that time there were ninety-eight active members on the roll. The attendance at the services of the church gradually increased. And soon a movement was started by the Young Ladies' Guild to remodel the church and build on an addition. During the winters of 1910 and 1911 this organization worked hard, and finally had seven hundred dollars as a start for this project. At a meeting of the church in the following spring the trustees were authorized to canvass the members of the church for subscriptions. And so liberal was the response to their active efforts that it was decided to start the work at once. The fact that the project was carried through and the building occupied by October 1 was due to the untiring efforts of the pastor and.the efficient board of trustees. Rev. Lampe resigned August 1, 1913. Rev. O. C. Carden has been with the church since December 1, 1913, being ordained and installed as pastor May 5. 1914, on graduating from the Omaha Theological Seminary.

This book was released on 2017-11-05 with total page 752 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Jones County, Iowa, Past and Present, Vol. 1 The mission of the historian is to chronicle things and events as he finds them, and preserve them according to the fact, rather than to give to history the coloring he thinks it ought to have. The recording of the organization, progress and condition of the county, commercially, socially, religiously, educationally and politically, past and present, is not a matter of interest and value for the present generation alone; future generations will peruse these pages to learn of the past, and from force of circumstances, will be compelled to accept the facts herein presented, as matters of undisputed historic reference. To gather and transcribe the data of this volume in the short space of six months, has been a large undertaking, and what has been accomplished in that period of time, will be disclosed in the pages of this history. The History of Jones County, published in 1879, has been of valuable assist ance in compiling this volume, and its pages have been freely used in this history so far as applicable. The cheerful assistance rendered the editor by those solicited for information and contributions, forms one of the most delightful memories of this task. To meet these people in their homes, in their places of business, and on the street and highway, and secure their hearty cooperation in making this work a success, has been one of the most enjoyable features of the labors we were called upon to perform. The friendships formed, the coopera tion manifest, the appreciation expressed, and the satisfaction experienced in securing a history of our home county, have been encouraging features in the role as historian.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1915 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XXIX SCHOOLS AND RATTLESNAKES The schools of this county were at first conducted on the old subscription plan, says W. S. Wilkinson, in a paper on the pioneer schools, read before the Historical Society, in 1905. Some one would go around the district with a subscription paper and the head of each family would subscribe so many scholars for the term at the price stated in the paper. If they secured a sufficient number of pupils the teacher was hired and the school went on. If not, the effort was a failure. Many a subscription paper has gone by default by not securing the required number. The wages paid were about ten dollars a month and the teacher boarded 'round among the scholars, boarding a week at one home, and the next week at another. Girls frequently taught for as low as eight dollars a month. Money was scarce then and the teacher sometimes had to take part of his wages in trade. The schools of the early days were of two kinds. There was the "loud school," and the "silent school." The silent school was where the pupils prepared their lessons silently, as at the present time, and the loud school was where they prepared their lessons in a loud voice all at the same time in school. Both the loud and silent plan had their advocates. In the loud school one scholar would be preparing his spelling lesson: B-a-k-e-r--baker; s-h-a-d-y-- shady; 1-a-d-y--lady; t-i-d-y--tidy; another his reading lesson: "The boy stood on the burning deck, whence all but him had fled," and another: "Mary had a little lamb, its fleece was white as cotton and everywhere that Mary went, the lamb would go a trottin'." I think those were not the words in the book, but something like. They would all be reading their lessons over in a loud voice at the same...
