HISTORICAL NOTEBOOK by Frank Passic Albion Historian

ALBION 100 YEARS AGO— AUGUST 1915 Our local Rotary Club has just come out with a new booklet promoting some highlights about our community, including historical aspects. It is a positive and friendly survey about our community and is supported by advertisements from Albion businesses. These have been distributed locally, in-

cluding at City Hall and at the Farmer’s Market. I encourage our readers to obtain a free copy. We continue with our theme of “Albion—100 Years Ago.” Week ending August 5, 1915. “Mrs. E. A. Haeske and daughter Leona returned today to Detroit a�er a visit of two weeks with the former’s

Shh, It’s a surprise! Good gravey, Ken Bentley turned 80. Come help us celebrate Kenny’s big ‘80’ at an open house, Saturday, Aug. 8 at 1 p.m. at Albion Elks Lodge

parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Zick. Mrs. Haeske’s sister went to Detroit with them for a visit of a week.” Week ending August 12, 1915: “Frank Podiko blackened the eye of Nestor Kratsko in a passage at arms which occurred in the foreign se�lement Tuesday. Nestor retaliated by securing a warrant for Frank on an assault and ba�ery charge. Podiko was arraigned before Justice Watson Wednesday evening and pleaded guilty. He paid a fine of $2 and costs and was dismissed.” “Julius Rutz and Hugh Eddy have returned from a trip through the northern part of the state which they visited a brother of the la�er. At Hart they visited a brother of the la�er. They state that they had an excellent time while on their long journey.” August 14, 1915: “Censor Theatre Will Open Saturday.

Albion’s new photo playhouse is to be opened to the public Saturday. The theatre as completed ranks high as a place for enjoyment.” Week ending August 19, 1915: “Dearing Will Be Released December 24. The Calhoun County authorities have been notified to the effect that Henry Montgomery Dearing, cashier of the Albion National Bank, whose misuse of the funds of that institution caused its failure January 2, 1912, will be released from the Federal prison at Leavenworth, Kansas, December 24 of this year…There are a large number of cases on record of alleged forgeries made by Dearing while he was cashier of the defunct bank.” “Through the action of the classes of 1910 and 1911 a meeting of all the graduates of Albion High School has been scheduled to take place at the High School building

Friday night at 8 o’clock for the purpose of organizing an alumni association. This is the first meeting of its kind held since the year 1900 and should receive the support of every high school graduate.” “Sheriff Arrests Liquor Sellers. Sheriff E. J. Mallory is making a systematic effort to eradicate “blind pigs” and boot-legging in Calhoun County and as a part of his crusade against the liquor law violators he came to this city Monday and caused the arrest of three foreigners: two women and one man, who are alleged to have been selling liquor contrary to the statutes. The persons arrested were John Justo and his wife, who live in a flat on the 2nd floor of the Young block on N. Superior St., and Mrs. Mary Voliski, who with her husband and children, occupies a flat in the new Perkins building, directly across from the Young

Week ending August 26, 1915: “Wedding Party ends in Fight. The wedding of Helen Mysekewick and Tom Zela, of the local foreign se�lement, which occurred Friday in the office of the county clerk in Marshall was being celebrated…at 712 Austin Avenue, when a fight started which resulted in twelve foreigners being arrested.” “Joe Guisynki and Frances Dwornikowski, of the foreign se�lement, were arrested today by Deputy Sheriff McCarty on a charge of illegal cohabitation. Mrs. Dwornikowski ran away from her husband in Detroit and came here to live with Joe some time ago.”

Thanks to the charitable commitment of local corporations and organizations several grant opportunities are available to assist local nonprofits in serving the community. Applications are invited from IRS-recognized tax-exempt organizations or from local educational or governmental units. This year the Foundation has revised their grant criteria for the Fund for Greater Albion, to ensure they are using funds to provide the most benefit possible for the greater Albion area. Their new Community Impact grantmaking program will support programs and entities taking a coordinated, col-

laborative approach to meeting the needs of the community. The following grant applications are due Aug. 24, by 4 p.m: Community Impact Grant - Utilizing the Collective Impact Model as the inspiration for moving this work forward, the ACF has developed a modified framework to support their Fund for Albion grant-making practices. The maximum grant request is $7,000. The modified framework does not require grantees to be members of formal networks or be associated with backbone support organizations, nor does it require projects and programs to be collabora-

tive in nature. However, it does require that projects and programs support a larger community vision or Common Agenda (common goals and strategy) that has been agreed on by multiple key stakeholder organizations. In other words, each organization charts its own course but with a common goal and shared measurement. Apply online at h�p://grants. albionfoundation.org/ Jack L. Hoaglin Family Fund - This donor-advised fund shall be used for math and science education for Albion area girls. Grants of up to $450 will be awarded. To apply for the Hoaglin Family

Fund please download the donor advised fund application at http://www.albionfoundation. org/documents.sml All applications and guidelines are available via the Albion Community Foundation’s website at www.albionfoundation.org and at the office of the Albion Community Foundation, located at 203 S. Superior St., in Albion. For information on contributing to any of these grant funds or on establishing your own fund at the foundation please contact Elizabeth Schultheiss at 517-629-3349 or at foundation@albionfoundation. org.

Fairy Homes and Gardens Workshop will be held Aug. 5 and 8 at the Albion District Library. Alas, the magic of faeries touches Albion the first week of August. Join the Friends of the Albion District Library in welcoming these gi�ed creatures by building outdoor shelters for display and creating your

own make-and-take faerie garden (first 30 registrants) on Aug. 5 beginning at 5:30 p.m. or Aug. 8 at 9:30 a.m. in the Naomi Lane Room. Come and learn where the faerie folk like to play and what they like to do! Perhaps you will meet your muse as you build your faerie garden! Supplies are free and have been generously donated

by various local businesses and organizations. There will be door prizes each day and pictures will be taken of all the faerie gardens made for a scrapbook to be displayed at the library. Where will you put your faerie garden? In Victory Park? In a storefront? The workshop is open to participants ages five and up.

Young children must be accompanied by an adult. Free and open to the general public. Register on Facebook for this event or call 269-4491759. The Albion District Library is located at, 501 S. Superior St., in Albion, and online at www.albionlibrary.org, 517630-3376.
