      From the column: "...It Must be The Lake water"

      The oldest businessman in town, both in age and in years of business here has just moved his base of opertaions to a new building in the rear of his residence on Lake shore Drive.

      Arthur fishburn, the blacksmith and Irons worker, was finally forces to evacuate the building on East Jefferson Street that has housed his operation since about 1918, because the roof was about to cave-in. Now he is settled in a shop where he can do anything with iron that needs to be done.

      He was the first blacksmith and in those days it meant shoeing horses and repairing the iron paerts on vehicles that were horse-drawn and sharpening plow points. But times have changed and not electric and acetyleen welding is the major operation

      He has't got around to erecting a sign yet but everyone misses him from his old ramshackle haunt and are hunting him up to get this-and-that fixed in the manner that only one of his craft and ecperince can turn out.

      Incidentally, he also is the oldest volunteer fireman, having served __ years except for two years whence in the oil fields. How, something is the way of a __ celebration should be done, so long as we are forever honoring persons and things for a lot less reason. - 23 Oct 1957 Culver Citizen
