										Bill 
										Donath holds a newspaper called the 
										Charitable Observer that was the monthly 
										paper of the Lincoln School for the 
										Feeble Minded, later known as the 
										Lincoln State School and Colony. It was 
										printed by the Lincoln Herald circa 1856 
										to the early 1900's. This was one of 
										many old newspapers and paper documents 
										found in a secret room at the former MKS 
										Jewelers building after it closed last 
										fall. In April, Donath was pleased to 
										share the findings with guests during 
										the monthly meeting of the Logan County 
										Genealogical and Historical Society. The 
										papers were given to the LCG&HS by the 
										Shew Family, former owners of MKS.
