BOHN STEPS DOWN AS INSPECTOR

   Today a heavy set man with an ever-present twinkle in his eye sits at home with thoughts of the last 57 years filling his mind.

   His hair is only slightly more gray than it was 15 years ago when he was writing magazine article after magazine article as Zanesville's fighting Plumbing Inspector. The twinkle and his smile are unchanged.

   He is Henry Bohn, 1113 Greenwood Avenue.

   Bohn, now past 74, is stepping down Dec. 31 from the job he has held for 26 years, Plumbing Inspector, the only one Zanesville has ever had.

   His career extends far back before he became inspector. For 57 years he has been a plumber in Zanesville, his native city. For about 4 years he was an apprentice, then for about 26 years he was in the plumbing business privately, and now for about 26 years he has been in the plumbing business for the city of Zanesville.

   During that time he has waged a continuous fight for more sanitation in Zanesville. He believed in fighting if necessary, and got results.

   Although he didn't hesitate to condemn whole city streets if he thought their conditions were unhealthful, he has still been untouched by political campaigns and changes in administration.

   Today at 74, he has definitely decided to give up the position of Plumbing Inspector he not only created but upheld for more than a quarter of a century.

   Poor health is finally forcing retirement on Henry Bohn.

Notes for Katherine Edna Bohn:

Note by Phillip S. Bohn:

  My Great-Aunt Edna, I never got to see her a lot, only when she came to visit us here in Zanesville, Ohio. Her sister, Mary Rose and Mary's husband, Roy Gallagher would always come here together since they both lived in Atlanta, Georgia.

  I remember her as being very nice lady and having a good sense of humor. The last time she and her sister Mary and Roy last visited us here in Zanesville was about 1976.

  I always remembered the last time when they were here because the neighbor boy who was only about 7 or 8 was riding my youngest brother's plastic "Big-Wheel", when he done some business in his pants and sat down and started to ride that thing. He made several passes by the visiting relatives and they caught a waft and everybody decided to come inside. They were laughing trying not to be too loud as they were looking outside the kitchen window, wondering how that little boy can ride that thing like nothing is wrong.

  Before she died she desired cremation like her husband Parker, and was buried here in Zanesville, Ohio in Mt. Olive Cemetery. She was sent here U. P. S. so my uncle Charlie J. Bohn was chosen to do the honors to give her a proper burial. Great Aunt Edna sat on Uncle Charlie's piano for a short time.

Notes for Henry Parker Lowell:

Atlanta Magazine

June-July, 1964

Personalities - LAST OF A DYING BREED

  For a generation of Atlanta Constitution Reporters, new on the job, treading on eggs in the garrulity of the newsroom and fearing anything that moved faster than a copy boy, H. Parker Lowell provided two things: their first sulfuric encounter with the precision of the copy desk, and a gruff but understanding shoulder to cry on when things got hard.

  Today, H. Parker Lowell, as he is known to friends from the courthouse janitorial staff to the governor, provides the same gruff exterior and same soggy heart to a generation of kids learning to flounder for their lifes in the downtown Y.M.C.A. pool. He is a modern-day Macawber, a W. C. Fields without jug, as venerable as an elephant and tough of skin as a rhino, with a heart as big as the Rock Candy Mountain.

  Not long ago a newspaper reporter inveigled the elderly Atlanta gentleman to a desk on the edge of The Constitution newsroom. The interview netted the reporter but little information not already in public domain, and it was interrupted fifteen times by a picturesque tribal rite known as Ignoring the Old Goat.

  The pattern of this folk ceremony, unvarying and apparently immutable, had certain studied and precise rhythm.

  Each approaching person, upon seeing H. Parker Lowell, would stagger backward, shake his head in horror and disbelief, and croak: "The old goat !"

  Whereupon Mr. Lowell would, with a grimace of profound distaste, rise from his chair and extend a long, bony suntanned hand. Instead of shaking hands, however, the parties would gingerly brush palms, wince, draw back their hands and fastidiously wipe them on coat sleeves, trouser legs or pocket handkerchiefs. Then, having graphically expressed mutual loathing and revulsion, they would smile broadly, thrust out their hands again, this time their palms met in a brushing handclasp and they bellowed in unison: "How are you, you old S.O.B. !"

  The object of and willing participant in this little exercise, the incomparable Mr. Lowell, is a self-styled "old goat" who achieved recent fame at the age of seventy-six years by swimming his 1'000th mile in the Y.M.C.A. pool, between organizing and directing a strenuous schedule of swimming classes and serving as "dean of women" to the Y's female group, the Magnificent Mermaids.

  Long before he came into the public eye with his name and picture in far flung newspapers, H. Parker Lowell, scion of the Lowells of Boston ("We're the poor but very impoverished branch," he non sequiturs proudly), has been a mote in the eye of many people.

  He was known to women on his street out near Brookwood station as the loony fellow who encouraged kids to play with snakes and even had some in his garage on occasion for study by  Boy Scouts and other nature lovers. Firebugs who happened to read The Georgia Firecracker, published during the regime of Zack D. Cravey, know him as the the author of such lyrical admonitions as:

"Keep the home fires burning but please keep them guarded

 From children both normal and slightly retarded.

 Keep matches from children and children from matches.

 Remember that fire too easily catches."

  he is also the artist who once portrayed Red Riding Hood as a bucktoothed, simple-minded damsel who wasted a Talmadge ham on a beast in a nightcap. The caption:

"We try to view Red Riding Hood

 With sympathy impartial

 But she would not be very good

 As a Junior Fire Marshall.

 Could she a fire hazard spot

 In any nook or cranny

 If that poor April fool could not

 Distinguish wolf from granny?"

  Mr. Lowell has caricatured scores of sober citizens in his zany pen and ink sketches and poked punny fun at others in his faintly Ogden Nashian doggerel. He is the founding father of an obscure and purposely non-useful fraternity called Sigma Omicron Beta, to which scores of newspapermen belong, including the Washington music critic who panned Margaret Truman's singing. (Somebody brought up President Truman's name for membership but the brothers voted him down as not so promising an S.O.B. as reporter who provoked presidential ire.) The S.O.B. membership card, designed and distributed by Mr. Lowell, shows the rear elevation of a horse and that first ritual pass at a handshake, the limp, clammy one, is known as "the S.O.B. grip."

  World War II is responsible for the presence of H. Parker Lowell in Atlanta. He came from newspapers in Illinois, Ohio and Iowa by way of a depression-days stint in a CCC camp, where he wrote and illustrated training manuals. He came to work for Bell Aircraft in Marietta in 1943 as a writer and stayed to edit copy and write heads for The Constitution, to preach fire prevention, to teach water safety and to heckle and lampoon his way into the hearts of endless numbers of unwary citizens.

  Like a proper Lowell - Parker is a distant kinsman of that other well known poet, James Russell Lowell. He came from Massachusetts. He was born just outside Boston in the little town of Somerville on December 31, 1887. He played hooky his way through Somerville Latin School, cutting out and going swimming in the river when he was supposed to be in art class, and then he went to Northwestern University. Northwestern gave him a degree in 1910 - "much to everybody's surprise," he says.

  Mr. Lowell now attributes the vigor of his 70's to moderation.

  "I never smoked, drank or studied to excess," he says.

  He says of his athletic career that he "tried to play football but was soon cured of that" and he went out for track, "where I distinguished myself by finishing the mile the same afternoon I started." He was an active and enthusiastic member of the S A E fraternity, however, and still takes an interest in fraternity affairs, serving as vice president of the Atlanta alumni group.

  The habit of volunteering for things first took hold of Mr. Lowell when he was a young reporter on the Des Moines Register. He worked the Police Beat, served as assistant sports editor and on his own time coached, for free, at Des Moines Collage. It was such a happy experience for him he has felt uneasy since if he wasn't spending part of his time in some form of community service. When he first came to Atlanta he organized a Boy Scout troop, Not long ago he was honored by the Red Cross for forty years' service in water safety.

  When World War II ended and the H. Parker Lowell drawings and poems were no longer needed for the Bell Aircraft News and the Bell Ringer Magazine, Parker moved to the copy desk of the Constitution where he was enthusiastically received. He attributes that enthusiasm to the fact that he had just undergone surgery for the removal of a pair of tumors from his larynx and was literally speechless at the time.

  To fill the gap before he got his new voice - the hoarse and whispery baritone which he now has - he heckled his colleagues, his employers and random readers with his pictures and verses. By the time he reached retirement age in 1954 it was inconceivable to his colleagues that "the old goat" could be peacefully pastured out in the newspaper reference room, his mirthful butting stilled.

  They were right. Parker accepted a quiet berth in the newspaper library and presumably settled down to putter through clippings and files to a serene old age. But he hated every minute of it and one day he reared and pitched out of the cushiony retirement berth into a variety of freelance jobs, culminating in the post as swimming instructor at the Y.M.C.A.

  "They said they wanted an older man to take charge of swimming on the family night," he explained. "They couldn't find anybody older than me."

  He stayed on to teach children, to organize a women's group and the Y's Old Goats Club for men over fifty. (Motto: Nifty at Fifty, Better at Sixty. While Alive, Let's Stay Alive.) He credits his wife, Edna, with making it possible for him to put in a full day of work at the pool and return at night for his special classes.

  "Some wives let their husbands have an occasional night out with the boys," Parker says, "Edna lets me have every Wednesday night out with the girls."

  His girls are the Magnificent Mermaids he taught to swim and immortalized thus:

"To swim at the 'Y' with my mermaids I'd ruther

 Than view Mona Lisa or Whistler's Mother."

  Parker has one daughter by a previous marriage and one grandchild, a young man who was graduated from the U. S. Naval Academy this June. But he has countless youthful friends who are indebted to him for swimming lessons or for happy excursions into the woods which once encircled his house and abounded in interesting plants and wildlife.

  His close friend, the late poet laureate of Georgia, Ollie Reeves, once explained Parker's enduring youth by saying, "He's a man of so many talents and interests that life for him begins anew each day."     -   Celestine Sibley

  H. Parker Lowell, Illinois Psi-Omega '10 (Northwestern), died April 4 at his home in Atlanta, Georgia. He was 82 years old.

  The Akron, Ohio, Beacon Journal, a newspaper once considered a rival when Brother Lowell wrote for the Times Press, reported:

  "He lived what he preached, the clean, active life...The one-time Akron newspaperman, pioneer life-saving instructor, advertising executive and Scoutmaster had lived in Atlanta since 1946.

  "Lowell died a wealthy man, measured by the respect and esteem in which he was held..."

  Brother Lowell retired in 1954 from the copy desk of the Atlanta Constitution. Before that he served as Secretary of the Salem, Ohio, Chamber of Commerce, as a reporter in Des Moines, Iowa, advertising manager of a department store in Akron, regional director of the Civilian Conservation Corps during the Depression, a public relations man for Bell Aircraft in Marietta, Ga., and until sidelined by a heart attack in 1967, in charge of the YMCA swimming pool in Atlanta.
