Chase County
Museum
Messenger
FALL CAR CARE
COMING NEXT WEEK OCT 14TH
Housed in the Chase
County National Bank
building, the Chase
County Historical Museum is thrilled to have
an original piece of that
building return home.
Susan Barrett recently
donated to the Museum two sections of the
original National Bank
counter. The counter was
made by A. H. Andrews
& Company in Chicago
about 1882. Alfred H.
Andrews was a native of
Connecticut who moved
to Chicago in 1857. He
founded his furniture
company in 1865 and by
the end of that decade
had 70 men working for
him making $150,000
worth of furniture each
year. By the 1880s Andrews’ had grown to be
the largest firm in the city
and employed 500 workmen making $600,000
worth of furniture each
year.
The bank counter must
be a fair representation of
the Andrews Company
work. It is made of cherry
and mahogany. The cut
glass teller’s window that
went with the counter is
currently in possession
of a private collector, but
it is hoped the Museum
may one day obtain the
piece to complete the set.
It is presumed that the
counter was removed
sometime shortly after
the bank closed its doors
in 1928.
Another interesting
find in the basement of
the Nation Bank building, was four Burroughs
adding machines. Three
of the machines are on
movable stands; two
of those machines are
electric. Two of the
adding machines have
been identified as having
belonged to the Exchange
National Bank where the
Citizens State Bank is
currently in Cottonwood
Falls. The one machine I
have research so far appears to have been made
prior to 1930.
William Seward Burroughs (1855-1898) had
a great idea for a mechanical adding machine.
Joseph Boyer who was
president of the American Arithmometer Company told of how Burroughs worked so hard
on developing an adding
machine and finally came
up with a model he was
pleased with. He had a lot
of fifty machines made
and he could make them
“perform mathematical
wonders.” Unfortunately
the average operator
didn’t do quite so well
with them. Burroughs
ended up tossing his
fifty machines out of the
second floor window one
by one and starting over
again with a new model.

Briana Becker; CoParliamentarian Lindsay & Trade Torrens;
Historian Trey Simons;
and Co-Song Leaders
Matthew Franklin & Jacob Wheeler. Members
decided to leave the
position of Recreation
Leader open to continue
with how we currently
have it. The family that
brings refreshments
is in charge of that
month’s recreation.
Wyatt Bolen and
Luke Ikerd, current
Lyon County Ambassadors, informed us about
the Ambassador Program and explained that
applications are due by
October 1.
Theresa McFarland,
Club Leader, presented
gift certificates to the
movie theater to members that turned in completed record books this
year. The members that
received these certificates were: Luke Ikerd
(also received a special
gift for being the first to
turn it in), Wyatt Bolen,
Isaac Cushenbery, and
Megan Hilbish (not
present). Members were
told how special they
are to Rinker. We were
reminded of everything
we learned this year and
all the hard work we
accomplished together
as a club, as well as,
individually. We work
together and complement each other like
Lifesavers candy, which
we all received.
Our next meeting
will not be held the
usual day and time, as
we decided to tour Roga
Pumpkin Patch. The
Halloween Committee
will finalize the details.
The plan is on Saturday,
October 25, to meet
at the Pumpkin patch,
then go to the home
of Richard and Briana
Becker for a cookout
and meeting. It was
voted on that the club
pay the way for members to go through the
Neosho Rapids Haunted
House afterwards.
We sang “Happy
Birthday” to those
present with September birthdays: Deb and
Luke Ikerd and Wyatt
Bolen. Briana Becker
moved to adjourn the
meeting and it was seconded by Lindsey Torrens. Root beer floats
were enjoyed after the
lengthy meeting.

‘Advance’ & ‘In the Spirit’ open in
the Gallery at Pioneer Bluffs
Two new exhibits are
now open in the Gallery at
Pioneer Bluffs near Matfield Green – the works
of April Flanders (Boone,
North Carolina) and Hilary Lorenz (who divides
her time between New
York City, New York and
Abiquiu, New Mexico). Spirit animals
The series of mixed
media drawing ‘In the
Spirit’ began during Hilary
Lorenz’s artist residency
at Outpost Studios in
Matfield Green. Says Hilary: “Driving from New
York along with my two
Labradors, when I arrived
in Matfield Green I felt as
if I had driven into a giant
secret bubble where blue
sky meets endless green
hills. For
as far as I could see it
was only green and blue,
no trees, no buildings,
nothing to interrupt this
endless vision. It was magical.” Hilary arrived “armed
with the gift of antique Italian patterned papers, given
to me by a friend whose
mother
collected them prior to
1950, piles of printed paper
and a multitude of watercolor.” She set her work
area up on big wooden
porch table, surrounded
by windows and with
white Christmas lights
dangling from overhead
and began to work. “As I
watched the deer cross the
field at night, something
unexpected crept into my
drawings, animals. These
were not ordinary animals,
they were ‘spirit animals’ I
carved in linoleum blocks.
I would make several
prints of each linoleum
block, cut the animal
out from the paper and
make up small stories as I
incorporated them into the
watercolor drawings.”
Invasive species
April Flanders in her
show ‘Advance’ presents
two bodies of work. One
responds specifically to the
prairie ecology as it relates
to invasive species. The
other is a continuation of
work she began last spring
and speaks to invasive species on a global level. Most
of April’s prints employ
monotype.
Like Hilary Lorenz a
classically trained printmaker, Flanders cannot
escape the lure of ink on
paper to create compelling
rhythms with color, texture
and repetition. “However,”
April says, “I am more
completely seduced when
I challenge the boundaries
of traditional printmaking by cutting, folding and
sculpting my prints so they
take a shape beyond the
frame.”
In much of her current work April addresses
the issue of native versus
invasive botanical species.
“We do not fully understand the ramifications
of globalization. One of
its consequences is the
uninhibited exchange of
plant and animal organisms across global boundaries. The result is often
the creation of an invasive
species. In my work, I
address the breadth of the
invasive species problem
in North America. I began
by collecting invasive
plants around my home. I
used these plants to print
brightly colored sheets of
printmaking paper using a
layered monotype process.”
April then cataloged 76
animal species invasive
to North America then
cut out images of these
animals from her printed
invasive plant papers. With
the work on show in The
Gallery at
Pioneer Bluffs she
ponders the implications
of globalization.
More details can be
found at www.pioneerbluffs.org/gallery or by

- The mad dog scare
is not over. J.F. Culver’s dog was bitten
by Charlie Squire’s
dog about two weeks
ago. It has been
locked up in order to
see if it is really mad.
Yesterday it began
drinking water and
kept it up all day. This
morning Policeman
Randolph shot the
animal. It is said that
there are several other
dogs in the same
shape. It will be well
for everyone to keep
a close watch on their
dogs.

Fall Prescribed Fire and Bison Bring
Changes to the Preserve
Autumn is a great time
to visit the Tallgrass Prairie
National Preserve. Cooler
temperatures,
crisp clear skies, and
beautiful autumn colors in
the prairie offer a welcome
change from
summer. Autumn is also
the time to see tallgrass
prairie grasses reach towering heights of six
feet along the trails in
the bottomland prairie.
The change in seasons also
brings about changes
in visitor activities and
land management.
The National Park Service Midwest Archeological
Center is coordinating with
preserve staff to
conduct archeological surveys in an effort to
identify some important
features and sensitive
areas on the preserve. To
accommodate the survey,
the preserve is planning to
conduct a
prescribed burn this fall
to remove residual vegetation and make it easier to
conduct the survey.
Weather conditions
must be optimal before a
prescribed burn can occur.
Due to the
unpredictable nature
of Kansas weather, there
is typically little advanced
notice leading up to a
prescribed burn. Some
trails and areas may be
closed during prescribed
fire operations (on
short notice). Visitors
who are hiking may have
their plans interrupted as a
result of the burn
activity, but this typically
does not last more than a
day. For safety, visitors are
asked to not
cross fire lines or venture beyond barricades and
signs.
The preserve is also
planning to augment the
bison herd in October with
additional animals
from Wind Cave National Park. These new animals will ensure a healthy
and stable herd over
the long-term. “We look
forward to working with
our partners to learn more
about historic
resources and build
our bison herd. October is
going to be a busy month.”
said Kristen Hase,
Chief of Natural Resources.
Fall visitor activities
include the new exhibits
in the Visitor Center, the
newly opened barn, and
seasonal programs.
While the Visitor Center
and historic buildings will
be closed for the fall and
winter holidays, the 40plus miles of trails on the
preserve will remain open.
Land management
activities can impact visitor
access to certain areas of
the preserve, however,
those impacts are
expected to be temporary
and short-term. All visitors
should check with the
Visitor Center staff
when planning a visit.
Historic buildings (that
are currently open) and
the Visitor Center will be
open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30
p.m. Please call the rangers
at 620-273-8494 for daily
updates, check the website
at www.nps.gov/tapr , or
check out the Facebook
page for Tallgrass Prairie
National Preserve.
Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve is located two
miles north of Strong City
on Kansas State
Highway 177 (the Flint
Hills National Scenic
Byway) and is a unique
public/private partnership
between the National Park
Service and The Nature
Conservancy. For more

Lyon County Historical Facts
Provided by Lyon
County Historical
Society
Harry Fowler’s memories of the dust storms
of the 1930’s included
his mother’s haste at
getting her laundry
done early in the day
before the dust began to
come in around 10:00 or
12:00 noon. When the
wind came up, housewives wanted their clean
clothes taken in before
the dust settled on
them. Fowler remembered the sun appear-
ing indistinct with the
dust blowing often as
late as midnight. Driving at night was often
similar to driving in a
fog. Fowler particularly
remembered April 10,
1935, as his future bride
was arriving on the train
that day before their
wedding. He couldn’t
see the sun at all that
day, and when he met
her at the depot, the
dust reminded him of
fog.
Harry Fowler said
that the only thing that
saved farmers during
the “dirty thirties” was
the Agriculture Adjustment Act. He had had
two brothers and lots of
neighbors who were being closed out because
they couldn’t pay their
debts. The AAA was
popular because it gave
farmers a little cash.
The Federal Land Bank
picked up mortgages
on farms, extended title
payments, and gave
farmers more time to
pay out their debts. In
future years, some of
these farmers prospered,
but if it were not for the
AAA, they would have
lost their farms.

Treasures: China case clock has a modest value
Dear Helaine and Joe:
The photo shows a
clock that my late mother
had in her family for an
unknown number of
years. It is 10 { inches
tall, 8 { inches wide and
is in excellent condition
with no cracks or broken
corners. On the back of
the clock there is a marking that looks like it says
"TM" inside a crown, and
"1755 Bonn," and below
that "La Barque." Can
you tell me the clock's
history and value?
Thank you,
K. M.
Dear K. M.:
Many collectors refer
to these as "china case
clocks," and while some
can be quite valuable, this
one has a more modest
value.
The case of this piece
was manufactured by
the Steingutfabrik Franz
Anton Mehlem _ or the
earthenware factory of
Franz Anton Mehlem,
which was located in the
city of Bonn, Germany.
Many records we found
discussing these clock
cases called them porcelain, but they are not.
They are pottery, or as
the name of the company
says, "earthenware."
Despite the 1755 date
in the mark, the company
was founded in 1836 by
Franz Anton Mehlem.
Over the years, the
company made a variety
of household, decorative and utilitarian items,
mainly from earthenware
but also from porcelain.
From 1887 until 1903,
they manufactured
reproductions of Hochst
figures.
Hochst was an early
and prestigious German
porcelain manufacturer
(1746-1840) that sold
their molds when they
closed. These eventually
ended up in the hands of
Franz Anton Mehlem.
In addition, Mehlem
became famous for their
decorative pieces, which
included the clock cases
they manufactured from
the 1890s (approximately) to the 1920s.
Mehlem closed in 1920,
but Villeroy and Boch
bought them and operated the factory until
1931. But Mehlem only
made the case; who made
the clock?
K. M. did not give us
any information about
that, but in many if not
most instances, the clock
works were manufactured by the Ansonia
Clock Company of Anso-
nia, Conn., which began
making clocks in 1864.
They moved their clock
making operations to
Brooklyn, New York City,
in 1878 and made clocks
there until 1929.
Occasionally, the clock
used in a china case was
made by the New Haven
Clock Company, of New
Haven, Conn., but the
vast majority of all the
clocks in china cases we
have seen during our
long careers have been
made by Ansonia. More
important is the point
that the clock and the
case did not start out life
together, and it is likely
that Ansonia bought the
case from Mehlem (Royal
Bonn), had it shipped to
the United States, fitted it
with its clock mechanism
and then had the finished
clock retailed.
K. M. mentions the
phrase "La Barque" as
being part of the mark
found on the back of her
clock's case. This is the
style name of the clock
and Mehlem clocks can
be found with a wide
variety of these names
_ such as "La Charny,"
Please see Treasures, Page 17
Tuesday October 7, 2014
TREASURES
From PAGE 16
"La Orne," "La Clair," "La
Chapelle," "La Landes,"
"La Mime" and "La Verdon," to name just a few.
They all sound very
French, but they have
no real meaning. "La
Barque," for example,
translates as "the barge"
or "the small boat," and
since the decoration on
the case is floral, this has
FLINT HILLS SHOPPER
nothing whatever to do
with the actual design
of this clock. It is just
a name picked out to
sound fancy and appeal
to American customers.
The value of Royal
Bonn china case clocks
has declined in recent
years, and this one should
be valued for insurance
purposes in the $300 to
$400 range.

Big Brothers Big Sisters Match of the Month
Please meet our October
Match of the Month, Riana
and Lexy. Riana, a junior
at ESU studying Elementary Education, said, “My
favorite thing about being
a Big Sister is getting to
hang out with somebody
equally as awesome as
myself!” Riana’s favorite
memory of her and Lexy
is this summer when they
went on a match fishing
trip sponsored by “Pass it
on Outdoor Mentoring”
and Lexy caught the catch
of the day! Lexy, a fifth
grader in Emporia, said,
“My favorite memory with
Riana is also fishing!” Her
favorite part about having a Big would be getting
to see them a lot. Lexy
described Riana as pretty,
nice and silly! When asked
what she would say to a
potential volunteer, Riana
stated, “it is the best escape
from reality. If something
is bothering you, being
able to hang out with your
Little Sister is a great opportunity to get things off
your mind!” Riana states
that she has always wanted
to be a Big Sister because
she never had a younger
sister! Riana and Lexy are
a great example of what a
successful match looks like!
Riana is very dedicated and
hopes to be able to make
a difference and work for
BBBS after graduation. If
you have ever considered
mentoring or would like to
learn more please call us at
(620) 342-5645!
