I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

- CARIL_070702_09.JPG: Text on the door of the carillon:
It was as if an earthquake rent the hearthstones of a continent and made forlorn the households born of peace on earth, good will to men.
And in despair I bowed my head. There is no peace on earth I said, for hate is strong and mocks the song of peace on earth, good will to men.
Then pealed the bells more loud and deep. God is not dead nor does he sleep. The wrong shall fail, the right prevail, with peace on earth, good will to men.
-- Longfellow
- Wikipedia Description: Carillon Historical Park
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Carillon Historical Park is a 65-acre (26.3 ha) park and museum in Dayton, Ohio, which contains historic buildings and exhibits concerning the history of technology and the history of Dayton and its residents from 1796 to the present. The historical elements of the park were the brainchild of Colonel Edward Deeds.
The Kettering Family Education Center anchors the park which is divided into major sections covering settlement, transportation, invention, and industry. An original lock of the Miami and Erie Canal is located on the grounds as well as a canal toll office. The transportation center has a Barney and Smith Passenger Car, built in Dayton as well as an interurban railcar and other vehicles associated with Dayton. The world's first practical airplane, the 1905 Wright Flyer III is located at the park. The airplane, a unit of Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park, was restored from 1948 to 1950 with the initial consultation of Orville Wright before his 1948 death.
In 2005, Carillon Historical Park merged with the Montgomery County Historical Society to form Dayton History.
Deeds Carillon:
The park is named for the 151-foot-tall (46 m) Deeds Carillon. The art moderne-style carillon tower was built in 1942, funded by Edward Deeds' wife Edith Walton Deeds and was designed to commemorate the Deeds family. When the tower was built, each of 23 bells was inscribed with the name of a family member, with the “silent” bells bearing the names of deceased family members and ringing bells cast with the names of family members then living. Today, with 57 bells, the carillon is Ohio’s largest. The National Park Service listed the Deeds Carillon on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.
Carillon Park refurbished the carillon in 1988, converting it from an electric keyboard controlled instrument to a traditional, baton-keyboard mechanical carillon. The Park's carillonneur, Larry Weinstein performs live carillon concerts every Sunday at 3:00 from May to October.

I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com
and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.
