The Old Red School House

By S. C. Kimm (Continued from last week)

Teachers', wages were pitiably bly the wood shed and privy. It is small. Before the Civil War from 2 dollars to 3 dollars per week and, board around. As late as 1876 Mrs. Dolan received $226 for 32 weeks and out of that she had to pay at least a dollar and a half per week for Emmonsburg room and board. The trustees report for 1914 shows that John Hicks of Oppenheim received $378 for a year's teaching and the following year Trustee Spencer paid the teacher perhaps the largest wages ever paid in that district up to that time, viz. $414.

I take off my hat to the winter teachers of my boyhood days. None of them had any training in meth- ods of teaching and most of them were short in scholarship. But they were experts in dusting boys' pants and in teaching us to have a respect for law and for the rights of others. Those old fellows insisted that the schoois should make good citizens re- gardless perhaps, of book learning . School House Built in 1828

In 1857 the trustees reported that the school, house built in 1828 was used in log house school days and subsequently. In the early days there in poor condition. In the report of 1859 we read that they raised by di-, might be but one arithmetic in tile rect taxation the sum of $322.01 out | school.

In a report of 1860 I read that joint district No. 4, now Emmons- burg built a new school house for $275 and paid $22.85 for the site. For -laying foundation $8.75. That year they paid the teacher $106 for 32 weeks of school-a trifle over $3 "Multiplication is vexation, Subtraction is as bad. The rule of three, it puzzles me, And fractions drive me mad." per week. In 1863 the red school house paid a dollar and a half for cleaning the school house and they paid 4. cents for chalk. Teachers' In 1855 the trustees reported wages for 32 weeks $107.31. In 1864 they paid one dollar for cleaning the school house. Wages jumped from $107 to $180 in 1865.

Early Churches in New York State

A brief summary delivered by HI. A. McConville before the Schenectady GenealogIcal Society on May 11. (Continued from last week)

If we group the state by localities in the vicinity of New York the im- portant early churches were the New York, Brooklyn, Midwout, Am- ersfort, Bergen, Hackensack and Tarrytown Reformed. Thru Dutch- ess county were the Poughkeepsie, Fishkill, Rhinebeck, ' New Hacken- sack and Hopeweil Reformed. Fur-

ther north in Columbia county and northern Dutchess county were the Kinderhook, Germantown, Ciaverack, Linlithgow and Galiatin Reformed churches, and the Lutheran churches of St. John's at Manorton, St. Thom- as at Churchtown, Germantown at Germantown, St. Paul's at Red Hook "and Pine Plains at Round Top.

In Rensselaer county the Scho- dack Reformed (1756) was probably the earliest church, and was located at Muitzekill, then the Brunswick Gilead Lutheran and Presbyterian (1770), West Sand Lake Evang. "Lutheran (1785), East Greenbush Reformed (1788), Troy First Pres- byterian in 1793, etc. were formed.

In the Albany area were the Re- formed churches of Aibany, Cats- kill, Schenectady, Niskayuna, Bought of Watervliet, Bethlehem, New Sa- lem, Guilderland Center the Luther- an churches at Albany, Athens, West : Park, Guilderland,, Presbyter- ian churches at Albany Schenectady, New Scotland and a few scattered Methodists.

Northward toward Saratoga Co. we might mention the Stillwater Congregational (1752) as the first church, Later came the Saratoga Reformed (1770), Ballston Center First Presbyterian (1786), West Gal- way First Presbyterian (1793), Balls- ton Christ Episcopal (1793), Green- field, N. Y. Congregational (1792), Stiliwater St. John's Episcopal (1795)., Charlton (Freehoid) Presby- terian (1786) and Episcopal (1804) etc.

Westward in the Mohawk Valley, the Fort Hunter Chapei Episcopai- ian, (1711) and the Stone Arabia Reformed and Lutheran (1711) were first, then the Fort Piain Reformed (1750), St. Johnsvilie Reformed (1756) and Caughnawaga Reformed at Fonda (1758). A little later there were the German Flatts Reformed 1763), Caroga Creek (Palatine) 1770), Johnstown Reformed (1771) hd Presbyterian (1785.) Later came he - Amsterdam Reformed (1792), Mayfield (1792), etc.

In Schoharie county district, the

Schoharie . Reformed (1710) and Lutheran (1728) served that section for many years. They were soon joined by the Dutch Reformed of Beaverdam at Berne (1763), Luth- eran (1790), Lawyersville Reformed (1790), Stanford St. Peter's Episco- pal (1794), Duanesburg Episcopal (1795), Middleburg Reformed (1799), Cooperstown Presbyterian (1800), eac. At Butternuts Duanesburg was a Quaker church (1778.)

"LOCAL HISTORY"

BY DONALD D. PARKER Brookings, South Dakota

"LOCAL HISTORY"-HOW TO GATHER IT, WRITE IT,

AND PUBLISH I'I

(Continued from last week)

Here, then, is an attempt to pre- sent war history as social history. If this approach needs justification, it may be offered in the fact that no war is fought exciusively on the field of battle, that successive mod- ern wars have affected ever increas- ing proportions of the population, and that we have generally accepted "total war" today as a reality. The Civil War history of many a south- ern locality dealt chiefly with mili- tary events in the immediate' area, and quite properiy, although, in most cases, too exclusively so, from the historical viewpoint of our own time. But in recent years all American communities fortunately have been far removed from the scene of battle and therefore military aspects of war have a bearing on local history oniy within quite narrow limits. Men and women in the armed forces from the community play their decisive part in the war elsewhere. Since they are scattered over the face of the globe, their service becomes ' a series of personal records which can be compiled and published in a memorial volume, but their indi- vidual experiences are not an' inte- gral part of the community's war history. This point is made with fuil recognition of their primary impor- tance to winning the war. What they have done in active service abroad can be effectively summaris- ed! the significance of the contacts

maintained between them and the people at home can be portrayed by> illustrations from available corres- pondence and other sources.

In viewing war history in its so- cial manifestations, it should not be. assumed that the' roie and impress of outstanding personalities in the community or from without are to be- overlooked. Most persons are inciined to think of history too exclusiveiy. in terms of career of national iead- ers and their accomplishments. In contrast to them the common man seems a drab, inarticulate mass or; as an individual, a local nonentity. This is not the piace to argue; whether the great man determines the course of history or whether he is essentialiy the product of his. times. The influence of environment in historicai evolution is! generaily: recognized and that environment is primarily local. The social historian finds abundant evidence of the com- mon man's expression through the social group. The democratic way of life has encouraged this expression and the leaders who have emerged have in turn been influenced by it. Social history is concerned with ac- tion and reaction among various

social groups as well as between the individual and the group or between rival individuals. Thus the nature of a community's leadership is of vital concern especially when wars and rumors of wars disseminate conflict- ing ideas and cast suspicion upon cherished ideals. The war historian might undertake to evaluate this leadership in relation to prewar 1

problems, wartime issues and anti- cipation of postbellum conditions.

MYTH AND REALITY OF THE LOG CABIN OF THE PIONEERS"

There is today an almost uni- versal misconception of the type of shelters the pioneers lived in during the first years after land- ing in America. Most people, in- . . cluding historians, believe that first settlers lived in log cabins. Not so, Paul Mattice of Utica says. Mr. Mattice has written am article relating "The Myth and Reality of the Log Cabin of the Pioneers" which will start next week. He will describe in detail the kind of homes the pioneer Dutch and other nationalities really did build. The writer has fone a great deal of research in digging up the facts on the building of early homes to prove his thesis that the first settlers did not live in log cabins as re- ported by many of our historians.
