It 1 exploded and all that was left was a basement full of splintered pieces of wood. i That must have been at least 80 years ago but I remember Aunt Mary taking us to see it.

There were some fatalities and it was one Zanesville tragedy that was long remembered. The Muskingum River usually overflowed into the bottom lands north of the Monroe Street Bridge. And, I guess Putnam was a bad place for flooding after the two rivers Joined. I knew very little of that part of Zanesville. There was a row of houses; along Linden from Mclntire Avenue down to Lee Street.

There were some on the east side of the street also, along the levee. The flood of 1913 practically covered those houses. I remember there was a saloon on By ETHEL MOORE Folks used to say, If anyone stood on a bridge across the Lick-ing River and cried, we would have a flood in Zanesville. When I was a child I can re member the Licking River flooding the Seventh and Eighth wards in spring, in the rainy season. I had an aunt and uncle in both wards and we would visit them.

Aunt Lou and Uncle John lived on Hudson Avenue, a short street between South State Street and the drive, or the road that ran to Mount Calvary Cemetery. That low spot flooded about every spring, and Uncle John kept a row boat which he had to use to get over to South State Street a lot of times.

The Barron Furniture Store was where Mees Carpet Store is now. Drone's Flour Mill was opposite that, at the end of the levee. In the spring the rivers raged and roared, ignoring any boundaries, but in the cold winters we used to have they froze solid.

I have watched them cut big blocks of ice from the frozen Muskingum above the dam. When I went to high school I took my skates. We had a nice place to skate on the Muskingum, in back of the old railroad station that was on Linden Avenue below the Fifth Street Bridge. Lots of kids went there after school and skated an hour or so. My husband and I went there after we were married and skated.

That was a long, long time ago, but I like to think about it and the bunch of "good skates" that enjoyed the Muskingum with us. Calendar For Today SPRING FIELDS Garden Club 6:30 p.m. Putnam Presbyterian Church. DUPLICATE Bridge 6:30 p.m. YWCA.

It's quite possible mushrooms could make the difference between common place and gourmet presentation. Adding their own distinctive flavor and texture to a wide variety of foods such as soups, salads, stews, sauces, vegetable combinations and hors d'oeuvres mushrooms are a delight to the palate. I believe you'll enjoy this delectable vegetable as a perfect party food stuffed mushrooms.

He finally had the house raised and the foundation built up. Pop used to tell Aunt Lou they lived in a swamp and it was really like that.

They finally moved up on Warwick Avenue, out of the flood area. Uncle Lawrence and Aunt Mary lived on Jackson Street. When we visited them we played in the Jackson Street Schoolyard. Their basement was full of water every spring also. I remember once, the night after the flood waters had receded in that vicinity, people were cleaning up their homes.
