Nine Hundred Ye rs
iN Same Hta lie
Nearly 400 years ago, when
Queen Elizabeth the First came to
the thratte of England, a family
named Oglandec lived at lovely
Nutawell House, its the Isle of
Wight. Now our own Queen Eliza-
beth ascends the Throne, and the
Oglartders are still in residence. at
Nutnvelt.
Thereby hangs a tale. Back in
Queen - Elizabeth I's accession
Year,. the young wife of Newell
fell ill.nnd was -taken for dead.
Though only in a ,deep trance she
was buried in the family chapel
.baud the line might have come .
to a prrpmature euct if the sexton -
bed net heard piteous moans
corning fromthe grave and rescued
her. A fen' weeks later site gave
birth to a son.
Is This a Record?
The Oglanders ,aetually received
their land grant 'in the days of
William the'. Conqueror, and they.
had 'already occupied Nusisvell. ;for
nearly' five centuries before Cood
Queen, Bess. Today, Brigadier -
General and gtirs, Aspinall-Ogland-
er represent the twenty-seventh
family generation to inhabit the
old house.
Is this a record? In the great
tome of Llonteeday Book -- cont-
pleted-in 1087—the Shirle s of Et-'
tington were listed as tenant farri-
ers and today, 'they stilt farm the
sante rich acres, the only surviving'
Domesday family to be doing so.
. In a humbler sphere, from the
reign of one Queen Elizabeth to
another, a member of the Ray
family has piloted ships safely up
tete tr'eacherou's liter Avint. Back
in 1497, in fact. George ltay was
at the tiller of Cabot's ship Mathew
when sl a sailed frcnn Bristol. Ile-
ceatly, Sidney Itay, last of the line,
was still piloting.
Farming—and Fighting
Then there are the 'l'ollemaches,
who have fought its every war front -
Crecy . to the ` last one, and for
nearly 300 years have been repre-
sented almost continuously in bot1i
(louses of. Parliament. At Affeton
Castle, Hunts, the Stueleys have
been lords of, the manor for over
600 years. They fougl t the Moors
in the 16th century. the Round-
heads in the 17111. Today, Major
Dennis Stucley is still fighting --
and farming — ;:tit he Itas also
bought a ranch in Rhodesia in case
crippling death duties drive his
family out,
Another record has been 'quietly
established in tete lovely church of
Rose Ash, Davenshire, where the
Rev. Lewis Southcontb preached as
rector back in 1675 and now
his descendant, the Rev. Edmund
Southcomb,-is the Mast of an historic
line. For nearly three centuries the
Southcombe, have been parsons -at
Rose Aslt and the .old, rectory is
',hung with Hick portraits.

,Last ??seek we.. bought a new
Merin clock. We already had two -•
—neither of them satisfactory. One
sounded off`in a very timid tone as
if, afraid of the result when the
person itswas, to awaken really
awpjce. The. other one. rang loud
and long—and kept on ringing even
with' the shut-off knob pushed well
`in: -The only way to stop that clack
ringing was to move the, time
'hands backward or forward. Mov-
ing ,them back meant that next
time one us woke us we thought
it's early yet—plenty of
time for another snooze." '11 we
turned them forward we woke up,
looked.at the clock in surprise, and
then remembered — "Of course
that clock is fast—no need to get
mi yet." The result was the same
in either cast -and Partner states
to be late in the morning- 11 be is,
,then I get the blame for not wak-
ing hint up,i
So I bought us a clock --gave the.
wliblc sum of $625 for it, 'hoping it
would pay for itself in the time we
gained.
The first night we had it I wound
the alarm, wound the clock, setthe
alarm, and put the clock an a little
table by.Partner's bed, Then 1 told
Itint not' to blame me if he didn't
wake up in the morning.- Next
morning the old alarm ?vent off
;but the newone didn't ... oh, yes,
we sti:1 use the old clock. I have
it on my side of the bed just in
easel
"By the lord- Harry," said Part-
ner that'morning, "thatclock's no
good either — you might aswell
take it back, Or didn't you set the
alarm?" he aided suspiciously.
9Sure l` did -look for yourself if
you don't believe aur•" So Partner
looked—and everything was in or-
der, the alarm' fully wound and set
for 5.30, I'htre was just'une hitch
1 hadn't pulled nut the little
knob that releases the alarm!
However, we have worked out a
system and we get a'ong all right
now. 1f I scuttle clock Partner
checks it; if Partner sets it, f check
it. But 'we still haven't got the per-
fect clock. I stn still hoping some-
one will invent a timepiece that will
make a person WANT to get up in'
the morning—maybe set off some
kind of energizing themical that
twill' make n' person hop out of bed
ready for anything. Until that time
comes the efficiency of any alarm
clock is open to question,
We have also had trouble ivitli
another mcchaairal contraption—
and thereby hangs a Inc. ' Last
spring a vacuum meaner salesniati
came in several tines trying to make
a deal. 1 told him 1 already had a
machine. "Is it in good wcirldng
order?" he asked.
"I think so -15 should be anyway
— 1 have had it less than three
years."
Well, on one of these visits he
wanted 1a cbmpare the efficiency
o£ the two machines. 1 let him go
ahead with his demonstration -•-•
after all, what 'had I to' lose? So
Ire showed rue what his machine
would do as Against my owe, and
I had to admit his did ,,a. better
job. Why shoeldn't,it--new brooms
sweep clean, theft why not'vat stool's?
But when this smart safari -nth 'told
me the motor in my vacuum was
just about done he 'overshot ,the
?nark..:, I, • became skeptical., "In
that, case what will you allow me
on a trade -le?" 1 asked,'Twelity-
five dollars was his affet' on that
trip. Next time 11 Was thirty-five.
And I gave $9S for it less than three
years ago!
Te gut a long story 41'00, my.
vacuum went' out of cotntnission
last week,' Our •repair Mao said 'the
trouble was- in the armature, and
that. it was something,, that could
happen evert to a new machine,
"Do you think it is worth fix.
inx?" I asked.
"Worth ' fixingl" he - exclaimed,

this 'vacuum. It is 'in good condi-
tion and should -last you for years."
Qf course the moral to that little
story, is, obvious—don't always be-
lieve everything a 'high-pressure
sa'esman tells you. His main object
is to make a.saltc'-:-and'a11 too' often

they nntst stand' behind tate goods

guarantee anyway. Why not patron-
ize home trade instead of dealing
with fly-by-night travelling sales -
then, who, once they have made a
sale, very rarely -return to ,inquire
ifwhat they sold you has proved
satisfactory. Many country people
are a little too trusting for their
owls good, and thus are easy vic-
tims.
