I love how these turned out. Funny how 'kiln filler' can sometimes please you more than the 'proper' work you do! Thought I'd make some lower-priced impulse buys for an upcoming craft fair.

The token system was developed in Britain in the 19th century, to facilitate safe working of single-line railways. If a branch line is a dead end with a simple shuttle train service, then a single token is sufficient. The driver of any train entering the branch line (or occupying any part of it) must be in possession of the token, and no collision with another train is possible. For convenience in passing it from hand to hand, the token was often in the form of a staff, typically 800 mm long and 40 mm diameter, and is referred to as a train staff. Such a staff is usually literally a wooden staff with a brass plate stating the two signal boxes between which it is valid.
In UK terminology, this method of working on simple branch lines was originally referred to as One Engine in Steam (OES), and later One Train Working (OTW). However the system was used on long through lines as well; R H Dutton, Chairman of the London and South Western Railway explained in 1876 the slow journey time between Exeter and Plymouth by saying, "the cause of the delay is the stopping at every station on the staff system. That really does cause a great delay because if the staff is not there, the train must stop while a man is sent on a horse to get it [from the other end of the section]"; quoted in Williams.

Prison Reformist. Having visited several hundred prisons across England, Scotland, Wales and wider Europe, Howard published the first edition of The State of the Prisons in 1777. It included very detailed accounts of the prisons he had visited, including plans and maps, together with detailed instructions on the necessary improvements. It is this work that has been credited as establishing the practice of single-celling in the United Kingdom. By 1784, Howard calculated that he had travelled over 42,000 miles (68,000 km) visiting prisons. He had been awarded an honorary LLD by the University of Dublin and had been given the Freedom of the City of London. While in the Ukraine, Howard contracted typhus on a prison visit and died, aged sixty-three.
A 1s/- token with 'WM. Lees Smithfield Market Birmingham' on. Not sure of it's age, however Smithfield Market is long gone demolished in the 1960/70s, now the location of the newer outdoor Bullring markets or thereabouts. This was found in a collection of other random coins/tokens of my grandmothers in West Bromwich, however I'd love more information on this, what it was used for, who is WM Lees, how old it actually might be?

The practice of rationing was practiced in Canada from 1939-1947. Meat was rationed from May 27, 1943 to February 29, 1944 and from September 9, 1945 to March 26, 1947. The second period of meat rationing gave rise to the holed, blue "meat ration" token, a pressed-wood token given as change as one-eighth of a weekly meat ration coupon.

Day fifty-two/365. Tonight, as the pastor, I conducted the funeral service of a friend. The funeral home was packed with his family, friends, and people to whom he'd reached out. He had been a mentor to many, in a variety of capacities. I've led many funeral services. It's different when it's a friend. A fifty-four-year-old friend whose heart failed unexpectedly.
The Scripture passages were easy to select and the words of the sermon flowed effortlessly. My only difficulty was in narrowing down my comments. His family brought tokens. The lunch box, the rocks, and other objects each represented a story and a piece of a relationship. How powerful symbols can be!
