This is a reproduction of Arch Bristow's booklet on the history of Columbus, Pennsylvania, he likely wrote this at about 1930. Arch began in the newspaper business as a cartoonist with the owl character "Zimmie," which started in 1902 and became syndicated nationally. He began the self-published monthly magazine "Hay Rake" in 1920 at the age of 38 in a modest shoemaker's shop in the hamlet of Garland, PA. He grew it to a subscription of 20,000 in a few months and continued to publish it till about 1939. After his hair went gray, he was known as the "Sage of Garland." He continued to write newspaper columns till his death in 1964.
