South Market Street, Wooster
Street, Wooster
South Market Street, Wooster This a 1958 view of South Market Street, Wooster, showing the buildings that were present on the west side of the street, just north & south of South Street. On the northwest corner, barriers have been erected around the old foundation of the Wayne Hotel, which was razed in 1957. It had been built in 1835, and was once known as the Mougey House. Just south of South Street, we see a building that was built in 1880. In 1924 C. E. Smith founded the CCC Hotel, there. “CCC” stood for Cleveland-Columbus-Cincinatti. In the early 1950s it was sold, and became the St. Paul Hotel. Just South of the St. Paul is Graber's Restaurant, operated by Guy and Chloe Graber. Going farther south, we see the the building that once housed Saal's Meat Market, and Bogner & Schad Meats. Next is the Silver Dollar Cafe, a popular tavern from the mid 1940s through the mid 1970s. It was operated by Carshall C. Carlisle, a dentist who had his dental office in the Silver Dollar's second floor.
It is said that patients would often visit the cafe, to build up some “courage”, before ascending to the second floor for their dental procedures. The bar is rumored to have been lined with hundreds of shiny silver dollars. South of the Silver Dollar is an employment service, and apartments. Today, the St. Paul Hotel remains, but in a much different configuration. It has been converted into a boutique hotel. Where there used to be 37 rooms on two floors, with one shared bathroom, per floor, now there are 12 highend, luxury rooms, each with its own bath. Graber's Restaurant is long gone, but the building remains, and is now part of the St. Paul. The old meat market has been used as an oil well supply business, R.E. Grosjean's Sheet Metal, and two short-lived wine merchants. Today, it sits empty and is available for lease. The remainder of the buildings have been razed, as part of urban renewal, in the 1970s, and today is a city parking lot.

Mrs. FDR For V.P. Okay, Says President
Washington—President Truman said today that Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt will be acceptable to him as a vice presidential candidate on the Democratic ticket in November. Mr. Truman, at a news conference predicted his nomination for the presidency on the first ballot in Philadelphia two weeks hence. Asked whether he would accede to the demand voiced in some Democratic quarters and retire as a candidate, the President said that’s a foolish question, number one. Mr. Truman said, of course, he has no idea of retiring from the Presidential race. On the matter of a vice presidential candidate the President was asked whether Mrs. Roosevelt would be acceptable, as suggested by Clare Booth Luce. The President first laughed, and then said that, of course, she will be acceptable. Mr. Truman, then with complete confidence, predicted his nomination on the first ballot.

Direct Order to Berlin is Under Study
Washington—Informed officials predicted today that direct representations will be made to Moscow by Washington, London and Paris once it is definitely established that allied commanders are unable to cope with the tense Berlin situation. It is believed that this may have been established by Russia’s withdrawal from the Kommandatura with the flat assertion that the four power [agency] no longer exists. If this determination is reached joint or co-incidental notes will be sent to the Kremlin possibly over the weekend. While Berlin’s situation is admittedly rushing to a possible dramatic climax, secretary of State Marshall was reported standing for the present on his blunt assertion that the United ‘States will be staying in Berlin. Drafting of the note is going on in London with Ambassador Lewis

Douglas in close contact with Marshall in Washington. His last press and radio conference was taken over by Undersecretary Robert A. Lovett because Marshall was taking a periodic physical check-up at Walter Reed Hospital. Marshall’s news is anticipated anxiously since the Berlin crisis appeared heading for a showdown.

Pool Dedication and Fireworks Mark Fourth Observance Here
By Elisabeth Quinby “And over Berlin our planes are flying,” 10,000 guests at the community Fourth of July Party were reminded last night. But sparklers glowed all through the Severance Stadium, and through a long sultry day Wooster had staged its greatest mass pursuit of happiness in modern years. Beginning at 10:00 a.m. when A.A.U. swimming meet preliminaries opened at Wooster’s new community swimming pool, this year’s community party had everything. FOR THE FIRST TIME since the announcement of an anonymous $50,000 to start the new pool fund, the name of the donor was publicly revealed. “About ten months ago,’ Arthur Miller told the crowds attending the pool dedication ceremony at the pool at 2 p.m. Monday, “I got a call from Herman Freedlander. He suggested I meet him at his office. “Art,” he said, “The Freedlander family has a trust fund of$50,000 of which we’d like to do something for the city of Wooster. How far do you think it would go toward a swimming pool?” Yesterday the Freedlander family was among honor guests of the dedication along with all those who assisted in building the $150,000 pool. Gifts ranged from $25,000 from the Timken Foundation, Canton, through $5000 and $1000 gifts from individuals, to the pennies dropped in swimming pool collection barrels by children for “their” pool. “I am sure that no other mayor of the City of Wooster has had the unique pleasure that it is my privilege to experience today,” Mayor Francis W. Hillen said, in accepting the pool for the “city.”

I live in Montreal, and for that reason my children have never been to a beach before. On our first family trip down South we decided one of the first things we were going to do was head to a beach. As soon as we saw the sand my kids went running off excitedly looking for seashells. “Mom!” screamed my five year old, running towards me with his hands full. “I found hundreds of them right next to each other!” With that he excitedly opened up his little hands revealing a handful of shells, not sea shells, but pistachio nut shells!

Although the 4th of July has passed by the time you are reading this, here’s a look at movie favorites to celebrate that most American of holidays, Independence Day. by Randy Wilson Now & TheN Contributor
First are classic films in black and white that are so patriotic you can almost see the red, white and blue color and secondly are patriotic films that were made in color. Many of these are probably already on your favorite list but hopefully there will be one or two new additions for you to add.
Red, White and Blue in Black and White
Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942) - A musical portrait of composer/singer/dancer George M. Cohan. From his early days as a child star in his family's vaudeville show up to the time of his comeback at which he received a medal from the president for his special contributions to the US, this is the life story of George M. Cohan, who produced, directed, wrote and starred in his own musical shows for which he composed his famous songs. Cohan personally chose James Cagney to play him in the film. The famous tap dance down the staircase scene at the end was not in the script but completely ad-libbed by Cagney (think you could do it…I know I couldn’t!). Cagney broke a rib while filming another dance scene but kept going until the scene was finished. This was also the first film to depict a living U.S. president. Mr. Smith Goes to Washington - Jean Arthur, James Stewart and Claude Rains star in Frank Capra's award-winning 1939 classic about an idealistic, small town senator who heads to Washington and suddenly finds himself single-handedly battling ruthless politicians out to destroy him. When Capra decided to film the novel The Gentleman from Montana, he ran into an obstacle. Director Rouben Mamoulian owned the rights to the story. Unwilling to sell, Mamoulian eventually traded the material to Columbia on the condition that he be allowed to direct another film Golden Boy. As Capra began working on the film, now called Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, it was suggested that Gary
4 | Now & Then
Copper, the star of Mr. Deeds Goes to Town, take the lead. Capra selected Jimmy Stewart instead and the film solidified Stewart's movie career, garnering him his first Academy Award nomination. Receiving a total of eleven 1939 Oscar nominations (including Best Picture and Best Director), and winning one (Best Motion Picture Story), Mr. Smith Goes to Washington is considered one of Capra's, Stewart's and Columbia's finest films. It also marked the end of an era. It was Capra's final film for the studio. Let Freedom Ring (1939) - Combines Nelson Eddy's fine baritone voice with its message of religious and ethnic tolerance, Let Freedom Ring distinguishes itself as a most unusual western. While boasting its share of bad guys and two-fisted action, this ambitious film delivers a powerful and heartfelt message. The setting is the west circa 1868. The villain is the land grabbing railroad, personified by smooth-talking tycoon Jim Knox (Edward Arnold). Knox finally meets his match, however, when he comes up against leathery rancher Tom Logan (Lionel Barrymore) and Logan's Harvard graduate son, Steve (Eddy). Cast in his first "solo" role - with no singing stars opposite him - Eddy excels as the prodigal son who returns home to save the day. Directed by Jack Conway and scripted by Ben Hecht (The Front Page), Let Freedom Ring features an array of clever plot twists and rousing songs woven smoothly into the story. The Howards of Virginia (1940) - With its straightforward retelling of events leading up to the American Revolution, The Howards of Virginia is a standard slice of patriotism from Hollywood's golden age. Adapted by noted screenwriter Sidney Buchman from Elizabeth Page's 1939 bestseller Tree of Liberty, this colonial melodrama is notorious for saddling Cary Grant with one of his most ill-fitting roles, and it's true that Grant's 20th-century style clashes with his portrayal of buckskinned rebel Matt Howard. Still, his performance is far from being "really bad", and Martha Scott brings tenacious dignity to her role as Howard's pragmatic wife, who defies her aristocratic family to join her new husband in the wilderness of Ohio. The stirrings of rebellion clash with some thankfully outmoded Hollywood clichés (such as Howard's initial rejection of his mildly disabled son), but overall this remains a respectable and altogether engaging historical adventure, encompassing the early career of Thomas Jefferson and noteworthy
for its meticulous attention to period detail. The Devil’s Disciple (1959) - The third of seven films screen legends Burt Lancaster (Run Silent, Run Deep) and Kirk Douglas (Cast a Giant Shadow) have appeared together in is a satirical take on the American Revolution by George Bernard Shaw (My Fair Lady), boasting a cutting performance from acting great Laurence Olivier (Rebecca). When Dick Dudgeon (Douglas) learns his father was executed by the British for treason at the onset of the Revolutionary War, he steals the body for a proper burial, ignoring the pleas of his friend, Minister Anthony Anderson (Lancaster) who's a peace-loving person who ends up becoming a belligerent firebrand of a rebel trying to save Dudgeon's life. Adapted for the screen by John Dighton (Roman Holiday) and Richard Kibbee (Vera Cruz) and featuring strong direction by James Bond veteran Guy Hamilton (Goldfinger). Rosalie (1937) - Nelson Eddy's rich baritone, Eleanor Powell's astonishing footwork and songs by Cole Porter - what more could a musical fan wish for? Wrapped in a deliciously preposterous story concerning a Balkan princess, a West Point football hero, a daring solo flight across the Atlantic, court intrigue and star-crossed romance, Rosalie lured huge film audiences with its knockout blend of top cast (including future The Wizard of Oz co-stars Ray Bolger and Frank Morgan) and magnificent music. Eddy sings two evergreen Porter songs: the haunting In the "Still of the Night" and the title tune, reprised to feature Powell at her most dazzling in a number that defines spectacle: a 60-acre, 27-camera, 2000-people paragon of screen-filling wow. George Washington Slept Here (1941) - Manhattanites Bill and Connie Fuller are trying to make a go of life in their dilapidated, recently purchased country home. The place has a lot of history. George Washington slept there. Or was it Benedict Arnold? Before Tom Hanks and Shelley Long fell into the Money Pit, even before Cary Grant and Myrna Loy unrolled a blueprint for hilarity in Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House, Jack Benny and Ann Sheridan turned a fixer-upper home into a comedy funhouse in George Washington Slept Here, based on the play by Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman. Percy Kilbride, the screen's future Pa Kettle, here reprises his stage role of the drawling, unflappable handyman Mr. Kimber. The Best Years of Our Lives (1946) - At the end of World War II, Fred Derry (Dana Andrews), Al Stevenson (Fredric March) and Homer Parrish (Harold Russell) return home to Boone City. Fred was a decorated captain in the Army Air Forces in Europe, Al a sergeant in the Army who saw action in the Pacific, and Homer a sailor who served on an aircraft carrier in the Pacific. Homer's ship was sunk, killing many of his fellow sailors; his arms were burned off below the elbow and he now uses metal hook prostheses. The three men share first a plane trip then a cab ride and become friends. Fred eventually finds work when he convinces a foreman who is also a veteran that he can learn new skills just as he learned to be a bombardier. He also finds love in the form of Peggy Stephenson. Al and Milly are opposed at first, but when Fred's marriage finally ends, they become supportive. The movie ends with the Stephenson family, Homer and Wilma, and Fred and Peggy all facing challenging but nonetheless bright futures. The Red Badge of Courage (1951) - One war played out in front of the cameras, another raged behind them. Entangled in studio controversy during production and severely reedited for numerous reasons before release, the Red Badge of Courage intrigues with what it might have been. Yet half a century later, this National Board of Review 10 Best Films of 1951 selection still remains one of the movies' most memorable portraits of
men at war. John Huston adapts and directs this tale of fear and bravery from Stephen Crane's novella, patterned by cinematographer Harold Rosson after Civil War photos of Matthew Brady. Audie Murphy, America's most decorated World War II hero, plays the untested youth first running from and later facing his fears, and G.I. cartoonist Bill Mauldin is his wise, easygoing pal. Pin a badge of honor on this overlooked classic.
Americana in Full Color
1776 (1972) – The incredibly exuberant musical celebration of the founding fathers of the United States based on the award-winning Broadway production. William Daniels, Ken Howard, Blythe Danner and an allstar cast. The Music Man (1962) - Let 76 trombones lead the big parade from the Great White Way into your home. It's The Music Man, the screen version of one of Broadway's alltime blockbusters, a sky burst of Americana as irresistible as 4th of July fireworks. Robert Preston and Shirley Jones star. Jaws (1975) – A giant great white shark arrives on the shores of a New England beach resort just in time for the Fourth of July festivities and wreaks havoc on swimmers, until a local sheriff (Roy Scheider) teams up with a marine biologist (Richard Dreyfuss) and an old seafarer (Robert Shaw) to hunt the monster down. OK it’s not really a patriotic film but it does take place over the Fourth of July! The Patriot (2000) - A farmer reluctantly joins his rebellious son to fight to free America from the grips of the British when the Revolutionary War strikes close to home in this action-packed epic. Mel Gibson and Heath Ledger star. Thousands Cheer (1943) - A serviceman falls in love with the colonel's daughter while trying to put on a show for the troops. Gene Kelly, Mary Astor, Kathryn Grayson and an all-star cast in a four-star musical. The Scarlet Coat (1956) - It takes a spy to catch a spy in this rousing Revolutionary War adventure directed by John Sturges and starring Cornel Wilde, Michael Wilding, Anne Francis and George Sanders. When top-secret military information is recovered from the body of a spy American counter-intelligence officer Major John Bolton (Wilde) realizes there's a highly placed turncoat in the ranks. Posing as a deserter Bolton plays a dangerous game as he pretends to work for the British while attempting to ferret out the traitor's name. Shot by Academy Award winning cinematographer Paul C. Vogel (Battleground 1949) on locations in Sleepy Hollow and Tarrytown New York The Scarlet Coat is M-G-M at its swashbuckling best an action-packed tale of duty betrayal and honor. John Paul Jones (1959) - The fierce battle has taken a grim toll. Lashed to a British man-of-war the fledging Continental Navy's Bonhomme Richard is sinking and half its crew is lost. English demand surrender. I have not yet begun to fight! The colonial commander replies. Indeed he has not. Because - for the first time in naval warfare - he sends brave Marines into the rigging to hurl grenades into the rival ship's hold... and the battle turns. John Paul Jones (from the producer of El Cid and King of Kings) is the epic story of that historic encounter and of the man who inspired the growth of a mighty navy. Robert Stack (The Untouchables) plays the title role leading Bette Davis (as Catherine the Great) Charles Coburn (as Benjamin Franklin) Macdonald Carey (as Patrick Henry) and more in a star-packed star-spangled salute. These patriotic movies are great any time of the year and many are quite educational. Take a look at them and see which ones are added to your favorites list. Here’s looking at you kid.

The Wooster Hope Center:
A Community Affair
by Doris Sigg
Sometimes the numbers can be staggering when you hear the Greater Wayne County Food Pantry of the Wooster Hope Center has helped about 19,000 families in a year; it distributes more than 1.5 million pounds of food in a year (with a retail value of more than $2.5 million); or it helps 500-600 families in a given week. Eight years ago the food pantry wasn’t even that; it was a hygiene pantry, “We listened,” says Director, Pastor Richard Frazier who volunteers 25 five hours per week of his time to run the operation. “We listened and went with the need of the community. We constantly reshape the organization by listening to people.” The hygiene pantry is still a part of the mission. This covers necessities like toilet paper, shampoo, laundry detergent, toothpaste, toothbrushes and more. It is open for business once a month from 8:30 to 11:30 on first Mondays. Appointments can be made for haircuts during this time as well. The food now comes from a variety of places, including, direct from manufacturers, Midwest Food Bank, Feed the Children, Buehlers, the Underground Café, Smith Dairy, Frito-Lay, the Akron Canton Regional Food Bank and many more. Some of it costs money; some are donated. In addition to the partnership of the local food bank, The Hope Center also has receives support from local churches, local businesses, and local caring citizens. The hours are split between shifts—Wednesdays 5 – 8 p.m., Thursdays 6 – 8 p.m., Fridays 10 a.m. to 12 p.m.—so that the maximum number of people can be served. Families with Children tend to come at night and seniors, in the morning. Over half the food recipients work. Twenty to twenty five percent are seniors on a fixed income. There is a growing need among seniors because they’re having trouble making ends meet. The free food supplements what they can afford themselves. A typical assortment turned over to recipients includes fresh produce, beverages, canned goods, soups, protein, beans, and snacks, 15 to 20 different items every day. The pantry also has provided extra food to: People to People, the Salvation Army for meals, Christian Children’s Home of Ohio, the Trinity breakfast program, and group homes. Food typically lasts well beyond the sell date, Frazier points out, which is different from an expiration date. To make the system work, volunteers are necessary. Anywhere between 100 and 150 people give of their time each month, new ones coming in every day. Some food recipients come back to volunteer. Volunteers fill different roles, pushing carts, filling bags or breaking down boxes, and they work three to ten hours per week. Volunteers can just show up or be put on a schedule. Whether serving or receiving Frazier says it’s about community. “We try to make each experience
10 | Now & Then
personable and about forming relationships.” And, he says, “there’s wholeness and healing when a relationship is present. Additionally, we are meant to serve. It changes one’s perspective. It’s therapy that helps with mental health.” The Hope Center runs pantries at Wayne College (weekly during semesters), Fredericksburg (monthly) in addition to the Greater Wayne County Food Pantry 807 South Spruce Street in Wooster (three times per week, as indicated earlier). It also sponsors the “backpack” program for school children. Bags are sent home with students each Friday of the school year, and while the cost averages over $2.00 nationally, the Greater Wayne County Food Pantry does it for approximately 50 cents per bag. Between 1,100-1,200 bags are sent home each month through 11 local elementary schools. While the program is called Backpacks of Food, the food is distributed in bags donated by Kohl’s, Frazier says. The Spruce Street facility is one of the five largest food pantries in the state. The average recipient will take away $75 worth of food per visit. No federal or state money is used. Everything comes in by donation, grassroots. “But we’re only one piece of the puzzle. We make referrals to other agencies and help, for example, with the homeless situation and affordable housing. We have to stay relevant,” says Frazier. “We are here to serve and work with others for the greater cause.” According to its website, The Wooster Hope Center is an innovative and local outreach that is currently assisting over 1,000 needs each month! Goals include: Empowering individuals & families to give back to their community Offering HOPE to the community Offering an avenue of assistance for quality hygiene products Offering free haircuts Offering diapers Offering food Connecting people to other resources in the community Partnering with local agencies, business and churches to bridge the gap for low income families.
Building Relationships
Nothing gets done without a network of volunteers who unselfishly give of their time to help feed the community. The reality is the Wooster Hope Center needs about 200-250 volunteers during the course of a month to operate the food pantry on Spruce Street and the backpack program that provides food to families over the weekends during the school year. You can sign up to volunteer on their website: https:// www.woosterhopecenter.org/volunteer/ Donations can also be made on the website or by sending a check to Wooster Hope Center P.O. Box 1204, Wooster, Ohio 44691.
Health
The risk of
heat stroke
on hot summer days Summer weather draws many people outside. Warm air and sunshine can be hard to resist, even when temperatures rise to potentially dangerous levels. Sunburn may be the first thing that comes to mind when people think of spending too much time soaking up summer sun. But while sunburn is a significant health problem that can increase a person’s risk for skin cancer, it poses a less immediate threat than heat stroke, a well-known yet often misunderstood condition.
What is heat stroke?
Johns Hopkins Medicine notes that heat stroke is a lifethreatening emergency and the most severe form of heat illness that results from long, extreme exposure to the sun. During this exposure, a person’s built-in cooling system may fail to produce enough sweat to lower body his or her body temperature, putting his or her life at risk as a result. Heat stroke develops rapidly and requires immediate medical treatment. If not treated immediately, heat stroke can prove fatal.
Are some people more at risk for heat stroke than others?
The elderly, infants, people whose occupations require them to work outdoors, and the mentally ill are among the people with an especially high risk of heat stroke. Obesity and poor circulation also increase a person’s risk of suffering heat stroke. Alcohol and certain types of medications also can make people more at risk for heat stroke.
What are the symptoms of heat stroke?
One person may experience heat stroke differently than another. In addition, because it develops so rapidly, heat stroke
can be hard to identify before a person is in serious danger. But Johns Hopkins Medicine notes that some of the more common heat stroke symptoms include: • headache, • dizziness, • disorientation, agitation, or confusion, • sluggishness or fatigue, • seizure, • hot, dry skin that is flushed but not sweaty, • high body temperature, • loss of consciousness, • rapid heartbeat, and • hallucinations.
Can heat stroke be prevented?
The simplest way to prevent heat stroke is to avoid spending time outdoors in the sun on hot days. If you must go outdoors, do so when temperatures are mild and the sun is low, such as in the early morning or evening. In addition to being wise about when you spend time in the sun, you can do the following to prevent heat stroke. • Drink plenty of fluids, such as water and sports drinks that can help your body maintain its electrolyte balance, when spending time outdoors. In addition, avoid caffeinated beverages like coffee, soda and tea as well as alcohol. • Wear lightweight, tightly woven and loose-fitting clothing in light colors. • Always wear a hat and sunglasses when going outdoors, and use an umbrella on especially hot days. • Take frequent drinks during outdoor activities and mist yourself with a spray bottle to reduce the likelihood of becoming overheated. Heat stroke is a serious threat on hot summer days. Because heat stroke can escalate rapidly, people must be especially cautious and mindful of their bodies when spending time outdoors in the summer.

How to avoid illness while traveling The destination is picked, the tickets are purchased and now you’re about to taxi down the runway, waiting for your plane to depart. Just then several coughs ring out in the cabin as the dry overhead air starts pouring out of the vents. That’s when you start to wonder if you’ll be nursing cold medicine instead of tropical drinks this vacation. Millions of people board planes, cruise ships, buses, and other modes of transportation each and every day. While most people envision bringing home kitschy souvenirs from their vacations or working on their suntans, others acquire a less favorable memento: illness. Thanks to jet lag, recycled air and/or potentially unclean native waters, travelers may be vulnerable to illness on their trips. But that vulnerability doesn’t mean you have to succumb to illness. The following are some effective ways to avoid getting sick while traveling. • Get vaccinated before traveling. Check with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention or the U.S. State Department to determine if there are specific vaccinations recommended for travelers visiting your destination. If so, be sure to get vaccinated before departing. • Bring sanitizer along. When packing, stash some hand sanitizer wipes and brush down the arms of chairs, remote controls, seat belt clips, buttons and light switches, and anything else the cleaning crew may have glossed over. Wash your hands frequently as well, as there may be some germs that sneak by. • Avoid tap water. Stick to bottled water when on vacation, especially when traveling to foreign countries. Even if the water isn’t teeming with bacteria, it may throw your stomach for a
14 | Now & Then
loop as you adjust. In addition, don’t forget that ice cubes are typically made from tap water, so skip drinks on the rocks. • Avoid uncooked fruit and produce. Fruit and produce may have been rinsed in tap water before being served. Stick to cooked foods instead. • Ensure food is thoroughly cooked. Opt for medium to well-done meats, and be sure that foods are served piping hot. If you are not careful, you may inadvertently expose yourself to E. coli, shigella, salmonella, giardia, campylobacter, cryptosporidia, or cyclospora. Exercise caution when hitting the buffet as well, as that sneeze guard may not keep food completely safe. • Protect against the sun and heat. One way to sideline a trip fast is with an uncomfortable, and even dangerous, sunburn. Use a sunscreen with a minimum SPF of 30 and reapply frequently, especially if you are sweating or going in the water. The Mayo Clinic says that signs of heat exhaustion can include fatigue, dizziness, heavy sweating, and cool moist skin with goose bumps. Increase your fluid intake and get into a cool environment promptly. While they can’t prevent every illness while traveling, vacationers can go a long way toward safeguarding their health.

Awnings
can make outdoor spaces
more comfortable and functional exteriors, and an awning can provide that competitive advantage over similar homes in the neighborhood. When renovating outdoor areas, homeowners should not overlook awnings that can make outdoor living spaces more livable.

Many homeowners are eager to step outdoors upon the return of warm weather. Outdoor living spaces have grown in popularity as more and more homeowners embrace opportunities to entertain and lounge around in their yards. Outdoor entertaining areas can be great, but such spaces may go unused when summer sun makes it uncomfortable to spend time outdoors. But a retractable awning can change all that. Homeowners often find awnings can be worthwhile investments that can be beneficial both inside and outside of the home. Increase usable yard space Awnings can create privacy and establish boundaries for outdoor living areas. Place an awning over a deck, tables and chairs, or an entire patio area. Some people like to install awnings over a portion of their pools to provide shade for those who want to escape the sun’s rays. Motorized awnings can be retracted with the push of a button, which can help homeowners with physical limitations. Protect against sun damage Awnings provide excellent protection against sun damage, as they can shield outdoor furniture from direct sunlight, helping to reduce the chances for discoloration or fading. Reduce air conditioning costs In addition to shading outdoor living areas, smaller awnings can be placed over southern- and western-facing windows, shielding interiors against the sun’s rays. In turn, this may reduce reliance on air conditioners. Expand gardening possibilities Some plants require very specific light conditions to grow. Awnings can protect shade-loving plants from harsh sunlight and filter the sun for plants that require indirect light. They can be placed over a patio container garden or permanent garden structure. Add value for buyers For those who may be selling their homes soon, awning may help them receive top dollar. Today’s buyers want houses that have attractive

The Nineteenth Amendment (Amendment XIX) to the United States Constitution prohibits the states and the federal government from denying the right to vote to citizens of the United States on the basis of sex. On August 18, 1920, the Tennessee legislature approved the amendment, becoming the last of the necessary 36 states to secure ratification.

The origins of poker P
oker is one of the most popular games in the world, played by millions of people across the globe every day. The game of poker has an interesting history. According to History. com, some historians suggest poker can be traced to 10th century China, where the then-emperor played a domino-card game that bears similarities to modern poker. The exact origins of poker are unknown, and it’s possible that today’s game is an amalgam of various games that were popular throughout history. One such game is As Nas, a Persian card game that dates back to the 16th century. History.com notes that poque, a game that became popular in 17th century France, is the closest European predecessor to modernday poker. Germans played a similar game known as “pochen” during this time, and both games were based on a game made popular in Spain during the 16th century. In that game, known as “primero,” each player would be dealt three cards. Betting on their hands and even bluffing were a part of primero, and that particular part of the game no doubt rings familiar to modern poker players. When countries like France and Spain expanded their empires into North America and other parts of the world, they brought their games with them. Ultimately, the rules of games such as poque and primero were tweaked, laying the foundation for the game modern card players know as poker.
