Looking Back Recorded by KATE MINNICH NOW & THEN WRITER & DESIGNER
Early Links - Wooster Country Club, shown in this postcard view made about 1910. Later, when a larger structure was built for the membership, the above structure was moved and made an addition to a home on Pine Street. Photo courtesy of Harry McClarran
Local News Pre- 1923: The approximately 100 male students rooming at Kenarden Lodge on The College of Wooster campus "went on their first rampage of the year" at midnight on Jan. 17, 1913, The Wooster Daily News reported. The hullabaloo was a "nightshirt parade" that "frightened the young ladies at both dormitories and created a general sensation in the vicinity of the college buildings." The affair was not a "real-dyed-in-the-wool" nightshirt parade, the Daily News clarified, because the sleeping garments were worn over regular street clothes, a result of cold weather. "The first thing on the program," the newspaper reported, "was a serenade at Holden Hall, which began with a series of unearthly yells, which roused the fair young co-eds from their peaceful slumbers and brought frightened faces of femininity to various windows in the dormitory. "From Holden Hall, the night hawks wended their way to the capacious porch of Hoover Cottage, where they staged a snake dance while the young ladies there shivered with fear. "This was not enough. The play was becoming exciting and the students were just fairly started. The sacred portals of Memorial Chapel were not immune and, in some way, entrance was gained to the place of

worship. Several of the young men got to the belt rope and the well-known sounds were wafted far and wide through the still night atmosphere. "From here, it was back to Kenarden Lodge, but not to bed. They went to the pantry. Stewards had carefully locked all the storage places for food, and all the raiders got was bread and butter. All this disappeared in a short time. "The noise of the celebrating students was kept up until early Saturday (Jan. 18) morning." Pre- 1923: A man claiming to be the "handcuff king" Pauline left Wooster for Delaware, Ohio, Jan 28, 1913, hot on the heels of a"cheap imitator" De Pauline. Pauline claimed his rival, whom The Wooster Daily News said put on a "clever" show at the Alhambra Theatre the previous week, was "lowering his reputation and money-getting ability by putting on an inferior act." Pauline did not say whether his trademark trick had been stolen, However, he did claim his name had been appropriated, with "De" added to make it "more impressive." Pauline arrived in Wooster hoping to catch De Pauline's act, during which he planned to have De Pauline arrested and "humbled." He was too late, however.

he weather during the winter months can wreak havoc on our activity level. Threat of frigid air is enough to keep even the devoted health nut indoors, due to the risk of slipping on a patch of ice. Whether its the boredom of looking at the same space or the inability to inhale fresh air, moving indoors can decrease the miles you walk, run or bike. For those who regularly exercise and spend time outdoors, the arrival of ice and slush limits their routines to sunnier days. Even though Ohio's climate is such that slush and ice free sidewalks can be a reality, depending on the severity of the winter, it is not as predictable as an avid outdoor exerciser would like and could affect their endurance. Luckily, there are several options in the area

for exercising indoors that are not limited to any skill set or interest. The Gault Recreation Center provides the ideal conditions for running, walking, or a combination of the two. A multi-lane track allows for designated running and walking lanes and everyone is able to exercise at their own pace. While indoor running may not be your first choice, it will maintain your endurance level, allowing for more enjoyable runs in the warmer months. Regularly visited by many area residents, the companionship available may also prove beneficial to your mood while working toward a specific goal. It is not uncommon to sign a child up for programs through the local branch of the YMCA, but how about for yourself? Besides the possible snow, ice and slush that clutters the outside basketball and tennis courts, there is the issue of decreased daylight. When many adults leave work, dusk is already descending and playing without proper lighting can be dangerous. Joining a team or reserving a court through the YMCA will provide a warm, well lit environment. The Wooster YMCA will also be offering a Hula Hooping series for adults during which they will learn the basics as well as specialized tricks. Cabin fever is a common byproduct of dreary winter days. When those sunny days arrive and the snow and ice is minimal, many feel the itch to exercise outside once more. Layering and quality equipment are the keys to remember. Don't be deceived by the warm looking sun overhead. If you are a bike enthusiast, Ride On bike shop in downtown Wooster is a great resource for the proper equipment and group rides. One group meets at 9:30 a.m. Monday through Friday all year, depending on the weather. Fully equipped with specialty clothing, bikes and more, Ride On is the one stop shop to get you ready for winter. Vertical Runner, also in downtown Wooster, offers all the gear and companionship required for a safe successful run all year round.

How Music May Improve Health
P
lato said, “Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and life to everything.” Music often communicates messages that are not easily expressed, which is one reason why music is such an integral part of so many people’s lives. While many people love music for its entertainment value, there is growing evidence that music can be good for overall health as well. A study from researchers at the Cleveland Clinic focused on the use of music for brain surgery patients who must be awake during their procedures. Researchers found that music enabled the patients to manage anxiety, reduce pain and relax more fully during their procedures. In a study titled, “The effect of music intervention in stress response to cardiac surgery in a randomized clinical trial,” a team of Swedish researchers measured serum cortisol, heart rate, respiratory rate, mean arterial pressure, arterial oxygen tension, arterial oxygen saturation, and subjective pain and anxiety levels for patients who had undergone cardiothoracic surgery. Those who were allowed to listen to music during recuperation and bed rest had lower cortisol levels than those who rested without music. Many doctors now play music while operating or enable patients to listen to music to calm their nerves during in-office procedures. According to Caring Voice Coalition, an organization dedicated to improving the lives of patients with chronic
Now & Then • 6
illnesses, music has also been shown to enhance memory and stimulate both sides of the brain, which may help individuals recover from stroke or those suffering from cognitive impairments. Music also can have a positive impact on mood. Neuroscientists have discovered that listening to music heightens positive emotions through the reward centers of the brain. Music stimulates the production of dopamine, creating positive feelings as a result. Some researchers think that music may help improve immune response, promoting faster recovery from illness. Undergraduate students at Wilkes University measured the levels of IgA — an important antibody for the immune system’s first line of defense against disease — from saliva. Levels were measured before and after 30 minutes of exposure to various sounds, including music. Soothing music produced significantly greater increases in IgA than any of the other conditions. Another way music has been linked to improved health is its ability to make physical activity seem less mundane. Listening to songs can distract one from the task at hand, pushing focus onto the music rather than the hard work being done. When exercising, upbeat music can help a person go a little further as they work to achieve their fitness goals than working out without music. The benefits of music extend beyond enjoying a favorite song, as music can do much to contribute to one’s overall health.

A New Year, A New Kind of Resolution
E
ntering into the new year there is often a buzz about resolutions. Some are centered on improving a person's lifestyle, health or simply resolving to start a new hobby. Time and time again these resolutions fall by the way side and are rarely fulfilled. The relationships we have with family and friends is a constant feature in everyone's lives and is often taken for granted. The year 2017, is an opportunity to commit ourselves to strengthening the existing relationships in our lives.
1
When was the last time you picked up the phone simply to have a conversation with someone? We have all been guilty of calling people only when we need something from them, but what about calling just to check in? With the numerous methods of communication, picking up the phone to have a conversation may seem obsolete. After all, most of what people are up to can be found on social media. However, there are those not online or who do not wish to publish certain events in their lives through social media. The phone call is an extra step, but it increases the significance for the one receiving the call all the more.

During an everyday conversation, make the extra effort to look into the eyes of someone talking to you. Historically, eye contact has shown respect for and attentiveness to the speaker. The growing trend in our digital age is to keep the eyes trained on a cell phone or television even though we are listening to someone speak. Not looking at someone who is talking to you can cause the speaker to feel unwanted and the conversation to fizzle out.

Article by KATE MINNICH NOW & THEN WRITER & DESIGNER
Acknowledge the fact that everyone makes mistakes. Lets face it, none of us are perfect and we are bound to step on someone's toes every once in a while. Forgiving and letting go of previous events will allow relationships to move forward. Forgiving may involve forgiving ourselves as well as another. Not everyone is going to admit they did something wrong verbally, instead they may provide a peace offering. Placing yourself in their shoes, acknowledging that apologizing can be very hard and uncomfortable and letting go of previous events will help everyone in the grand scheme of things.
4
Do something with or for someone you know they will appreciate. This one can be as simple as helping with the laundry or the dishes. Over the years we tend to establish certain roles in our relationships such as who does the laundry, dishes and outside work. Grabbing a towel after diner and helping with dishes will touch the other person's heart more than they may be able to admit. This is also a wonderful opportunity to have a simple conversation about your day.
5 6
Acknowledging something someone has done for you with a simple thank you is important. It is easy to fall into a routine and come to expect someone to do a particular chore or action. Perhaps it is something they have always done such as taking out the trash. By calling attention to this continuous action, you acknowledge how much it means to you and it makes the other person realize that after all this time you still appreciate their contribution.
Patience. If our views or style of doing things are different it is hard to remain patient and understanding. Remember, we all experience life differently, some people can only find the bad in a situation while others have problems taking time just for themselves. Often times it is a result of the circumstances we have lived through. If someone's actions wear on your patience, ask them why they do certain things (nicely of course). Perhaps together you can find a solution and make conversations comfortable for both of you. Relationships of all kinds are work. Constant communication will increase the stability of your relationship because each party will have the chance to understand what the other is thinking. Keep in mind, both sides have to be willing to make the effort and choose to strengthen an existing connection. All any of us can do is open the door.

The Hidden Benefits of Water
D
O
ehydration is a dangerous condition that can cause a host of complications and even prove fatal in severe cases. But as dangerous as dehydration can be, many cases are entirely preventable. The best way to prevent dehydration is to drink enough water. When the body does not take in as much water as it puts out, it can become dehydrated. People who live in warm climates or in elevated altitudes may lose more water than those who do not. In addition, water loss is accelerated during strenuous exercise, highlighting the emphasis men and women must place on drinking enough water during their workouts.

But water does more for the body than prevent dehydration. The following are a handful of lesser known ways that water benefits the body. • Water can help people maintain healthy weights. Dieting fads come and go, but water is a mainstay for people who want to control their caloric intake in an effort to maintain healthy weights. Water has zero calories, so reaching for a bottle or glass of water instead of a soda, lemonade or another caloric beverage can help people keep the pounds off. A study from researchers at the University of Texas Health Science Center found that even diet soda enhances weight gain by as much as 41 percent. In addition, soda has been linked to conditions such as obesity, diabetes
and tooth decay. No such association exists with water. • Water helps to fight fatigue. The fatigue-fighting properties of water are another of its lesser known benefits. When the body is not adequately hydrated, it can experience muscle soreness. Fitness enthusiasts who do not drink enough water may notice their bodies require extensive recovery time after working out. Each of those consequences can be prevented by drinking enough water, and doing so can even improve performance, as studies have shown that just a 3 percent loss of body weight due to dehydration can cause as much as a 10 percent drop in performance level. • Water can improve the appearance of the skin. Skin that does not get enough water can turn dry and flaky and feel tight. In addition, dry skin is more likely to wrinkle than adequately hydrated skin. Getting water to the skin can be tricky, as the University of WisconsinMadison School of Medicine and Public Health notes that water will reach all the other organs of the body before it reaches the skin. But the school recommends
applying a hydrating moisturizer within two minutes of leaving the bath or shower and drinking at least eight glasses of water a day to ensure the skin is getting enough water. • Water helps the gastrointestinal tract. Water can help maintain normal bowel function. When the body lacks sufficient fluid, the colon will pull water from stools in an effort to stay hydrated. That can lead to constipation, a condition in which people experience difficulty emptying their bowels. By drinking enough water, people can ensure their colon will not have to pull water from stools to stay hydrated, thereby helping them stay regular. Water helps the body in myriad ways, many of which might surprise people unaware of just how valuable water can be to the body.

Community Partners Since 1948 Article & Photos by KATE MINNICH NOW & THEN WRITER & DESIGNER
“To promote goodwill amongst the members and fellow citizens; to develop a cooperative spirit in social life and community activities; to work towards the social, moral and cultural betterment of the members, their families and neighbors, and to acquaint others with the customs and heritage of persons of Italian descent; and to do any and all things necessary or incident thereto.”
I
ncorporated with the purpose stated above, The Lamplighters Social Club became a Wooster nonprofit in March of 1948. Following World War II, when men were getting back from overseas, the Lamplighters were formed in order to provide a community space for the Italian neighborhood. The name was inspired by lyrics “He made the night a little brighter/ Wherever he would go” from a popular Sammy Kaye song, ' The Old Lamp-lighter'. The Lamplighter Social Club has enjoyed a tight community bond from its earliest days. Situated in the heart of Wooster's Italian community, the building the Lamplighter's call home was built on land provided by the community. In recognition of the importance of the club, families who owned land surrounding the lot “sold”
Now & Then • 14
portions of their land to the non-profit for nominal fees, some as low as a $1. Early members constructed the building themselves, at the time it was one of the largest public halls within Wooster. “Our families worked hard to build this place, now its our job to keep it going,” says Ron Fry, maintenance and grounds committee member. Community involvement has continued in strength. Through partnerships with community businesses, The Lamplighters Social Club is able to offer the community more in the way of events and financial support. Seeking guidance on health department laws and hosting events the Lamplighters will turn to partnering businesses. In return, the businesses receive a discounted rate when renting the Lamplighter's hall. Historically, the Women's Auxiliary, associated
with the Lamplighters hosted holiday parties for the families in the community. Decked out in costumes for Halloween and calling Santa down from the North Pole for Christmas, the women gave the community a reason to come together and celebrate. In the days when grocery stores were abundant in Wooster, the women worked hand in hand to create baskets of necessary items for those in the area suffering from poverty. Today the Lamplighters are all one organization comprised of both men and women who may not be strictly of Italian descent, but the mission statement has not wavered. Sponsoring several events a year, the Lamplighters remain focused on the betterment of the community. In honor of this past November's Veterans Day, the Lamplighters hosted a dinner where every veteran ate for free. Family members who came with the veterans were asked to pay $5 a piece, but rather than keep the money for their treasury, the Lamplighters choose to donate it all to Toys for Tots. “We try to be self sufficient because the money we save we can then give to others,� explains Steven Massaro, president of the Lamplighter Social Club. For those who choose to have or attend an event within the Lamplighter's hall, there is an opportunity to enjoy home cooked Italian food. Equipped with large pots and an eight burner stove, the hall's full service kitchen, allows Lamplighter members to craft Italian cuisine.
The third Sunday of every month, excluding the summer months, is the perfect opportunity to taste the Italian recipes. The members of the Lamplighters Social Club are drawn to the hall for various reasons, but chiefly among them is the social aspect and the community impact the club provides. There are many members who can trace their family history through the club's records, Steven Massaro's mother Dottie Massaro and aunt Phyllis Porter, for instance, were president of the woman's auxiliary, and his grandfather Vincent Massaro was one of the original founders of the Lamplighter's. Other members revel in the idea of having a social club where they can go and hang out with other community members. This social aspect is further heightened by the member exclusive bar in the basement of the Lamplighter hall. The bar is complete with a pool table where no one pays to play, a modern jukebox and plenty of tables to play euchre. The Lamplighters Social Club continues to be a supportive component of the Wooster community through fundraisers, sponsored events, and scholarships to area high school students. Enduring shifts in leadership, the goal of sharing Italian heritage with and remaining an independent association supported by the community remains strong among the members of the Lamplighters. If you are interested in joining the Lamplighters call 330-262-8426 or visit the hall, 1007 Rebecca St., Wooster, during a Sunday Dinner.

Recipes The following recipe for “Gratin of Eggs, Leeks, Bacon, and St. André Cheese” from Betty Rosbottom and Susie Cushner’s “Sunday Brunch” (Chronicle Books) includes the staples of a traditional breakfast: bacon, eggs and toast. But this dish also can be assembled the night before and simply popped into the oven the next morning once everyone wakes up, making it an ideal morning meal that allows hosts to join in the breakfast table conversation.
Gratin of Eggs, Leeks, Bacon and St. Andrè Cheese
Ingredients: 1 baguette, about 2 1/2 to 3 inches in diameter 6 thick slices bacon, cut into 1 inch pieces 2 cups chopped leeks, white and light green parts 6 oz. St. Andrè cheese, well chilled (see note) 6 eggs 2 1/2 cups half-and-half 1/2 tsp. salt 1 Tbsp. minced flat-leaf parsley or chives Unsalted butter, for the baking dish Generous 2 pinches of cayenne pepper
Directions:
1. Arrange a rack at center position and preheat the oven to 350 F. Generously butter a 9- by 13-inch baking dish. 2. Cut enough 1⁄2-inch-thick slices from the baguette to make a single layer in the baking dish. (You will probably need between 20 and 24 slices; save extra slices for another use.) Arrange the slices on a baking sheet and bake without turning until crisp and very lightly colored, 10 minutes. Remove and arrange the slices in the baking dish. 3. In a medium, heavy frying pan set over medium
Now & Then • 16
Servings: 6
heat, fry the bacon pieces until crisp and browned, 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels. 4. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of the drippings and return the frying pan to medium heat. Add the leeks and cook, stirring, until just softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle the leeks and bacon over the bread slices in the baking dish. 5. Cut the St. André cheese with its rind into 1⁄2inch cubes and scatter them over the leeks and bacon in the baking dish. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs to blend, and then whisk in the half-andhalf, salt and cayenne. Pour the mixture into the baking dish. Let the gratin stand at least 1 hour, or cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. (If the dish has been refrigerated, let it stand at room temperature for 30 minutes before baking if you have time. It also can go directly from the refrigerator to the oven but will take longer to cook.) 6. Bake the gratin until the egg mixture is set, the top is golden and the mixture is bubbly, 40 to 45 minutes (10 to 15 minutes longer if straight from the refrigerator). Remove and let cool for about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with minced parsley and serve hot. (Note: St. André cheese is a mild, triple-cream French cheese with a white rind. It is available at many grocers and cheese stores. If you are unable to find it, you can substitute a triple-cream Brie.)

Whisk until smooth. Spread over the crescent dough. 4. Lightly sprinkle the flat side of a cutting board with flour. Unroll the second package of crescent dough and roll it into a 13- by 12-inch rectangle. 5. Fold the dough in half from the short end; gently lift and place in the pan. Unfold and gently stretch the dough over the cream cheese layer; press the edges to seal. Cut off corners of dough hanging over and discard. 6. Bake 22 to 24 minutes, until golden brown. 7. Combine the remaining 1⁄4 cup sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Place the caramel topping in a 1-cup measuring cup.
9. Using a utility knife, cut into 4 x 6 rows to make 24 squares.

Beginner’s Guide to Real Estate Investments

urchasing a house or property is about more than setting up a home. Although quite a number of people buy real estate to establish their future, long-term abodes, many others recognize the potentially lucrative investment that lies within a real estate purchase. Despite the ups and downs of the economy, real estate has become a common investment vehicle - one that has plenty of potential for making big gains for those who are willing to put in the effort. According to the experts at Entrepreneur, even in a bad economy, real estate investments will usually fare better than stocks. Real estate also continues to appreciate despite the occasional economical slowdown. Like any other endeavor, there is a right and a wrong way to go about investing in real estate. Novices may

not know where to begin their first forays into the real estate market as investors, even if they already own their own homes. Buying a property as an investment is an entirely different animal than buying a home to establish a residence. However, with the right guidance, anyone can dabble in real estate. ESTABLISH FINANCIAL GOALS. Before you even begin looking at properties or put forth the effort of meeting with an agent, you must determine what you expect from the investment. The days of buying real estate and flipping it for a fast profit may no longer be here. However, real estate can provide a steady stream of long-term income. Understand what you hope to achieve by investing. If it’s to become an overnight millionaire, you may be looking at the wrong investment vehicle in real estate. ESTABLISH A PLAN. New investors who do not have a plan in place will likely spend too much or have more setbacks than others who have planned accordingly. When investing in real estate, it’s more about the bottom line than the property itself. According to Springboard Academy, a real estate academy for investors, look for motivated sellers and stick to a set purchase price. Try to make offers on a variety of properties that work in your financial favor. And know what you want to do with the property (i.e., renovate and sell, remove and rebuild, or rehab and rent) before you buy. Fit the house to the plan, and not vice-versa. START SMALL. If this is your first time out there, stick with properties that will turnover quickly. Research areas in and around urban centers or close to transportation and shopping. A good starter

Rental properties offer steady sources of income when renters are properly vetted, offers Investopedia, an investment resource. LOOK AT MANY DIFFERENT PROPERTIES. Become an expert by learning as much as you can about what is out there. Attend open houses; look for vacant/unattractive properties; scour the classifieds in your local paper; or put the word out there that you’re interested in buying a property. Only look at properties that have motivated sellers, because then you’ll get closest to the price you want to pay. And don’t forget to research the area and the home turnover rate for the specific area where you are looking. Don’t make assumptions that a property will appreciate without doing your homework. Real estate can be a worthy investment opportunity. With research, a plan and the right price, just about anyone can be a real estate investor.

Car Tips
What's the Difference Between AWD and 4WD?
W
inter weather has arrived, leaving some drivers wondering if their two-wheel-drive vehicles can handle roads covered in snow and ice. Now is the time people flock to car and truck dealerships to trade in their cars for something with a little more power and traction and also to take advantage of end-of-season pricing. When faced with an array of vehicles boasting four-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive, consumers often wonder about the differences between the two options or if there is any difference at all. Though similar, four-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive are not quite the same. Four-wheel-drive systems, often referred to as 4WD, trace their origins to the late 1800s, while all-wheeldrive, or AWD, did not arrive until the late 1970s, when an AWD system was used on an Audi vehicle for rally racing. Now many cars and trucks come with 4WD or AWD, particularly crossovers and SUVs. Both drive systems engage all four wheels at the same time to provide more traction. On AWD systems, the powering of the wheels is automatic and usually handled by the electronic system of the car. Some vehicles drive in two-wheel-drive, but then engage AWD when sensors detect a need for more traction and maneuverability. When operating 4WD vehicles, drivers may have to manually engage the system. True 4WD uses a transfer case mounted by the rear of the transmission. A button or selector lever on older model SUVs would switch the vehicle from 2WD to 4WD. Unlike in AWD systems, the front and rear axles are locked together in 4WD systems. Four-wheel-drive systems are better for off-roading, rock-climbing and driving through mud and water. Individuals who participate in many off-road recreational activities will find that 4WD, especially in vehicles with more gears, is more effective and provides better traction.
Now & Then • 20
All-wheel-drive provides stability, largely on roadways, and enables the vehicle to modify the level of power to either the front or rear wheels to improve traction as needed. All-wheel-drive is adequate for many drivers and situations. It is important to note that, on icy or slippery roads, neither AWD or 4WD systems assist with braking or completely prevent cars from skidding on slick surfaces. Having the ability to engage all four wheels at the same time should not be used as a replacement for cautious driving in inclement weather. Four-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive both provide power to all four wheels on the vehicle but have subtle differences that make each better for certain driving conditions.

arbohydrates are seen as the enemy by many people looking to lose weight, but that reputation is ill-deserved for certain types of carbs. Carbohydrates referred to as “smart carbs” can boost energy and mood and help people, even dieters, maintain healthy weights. Smart carbs, which can be found in fruits, vegetables, minimally processed whole grain products such as brown rice and quinoa, and whole wheat bread among other foods, contain vital nutrients and fiber. The body takes longer to absorb whole grains than it does processed carbohydrates, stabilizing blood
sugar and energy levels as a result. Because the body takes longer to absorb whole grains, feelings of satiety and fullness are extended. That reduces the likelihood of being hungry again shortly after eating, thereby helping people maintain healthy weights. Those who want to avoid carbohydrates should avoid products made with white flour, such as white bread, non-whole grain pastas, potato chips, and breakfast cereals with high amounts of sugar.
