Notes:

Novelty has been the keynote of Noah M. Steinman's life. When he went into business in Baden in 1905, he didn't stick merely to one line of goods. He sold groceries, stock feed and lime and cement. Because there was a demand for the service, three years later Mr. Steinman became a licenced undertaker and embalmer. This probably makes him the oldest mortician in point of service in the county. [Steinman funeral business records date from 1904.] This week the link with the undertaking business was broken when he sold the good will to the Twin City firm of Ratz-Bechtel Funeral Service. At 77, though, he needs something to keep him active so he has retained the furniture store and novelty shop which he opens every day. Last July he broke his ankle and although that has incapacitated Mr. Steinman somewhat, it hasn't kept him away from the store.

Besides an active business life Mr. Steinman always had enough time and public spirit to engage actively in Baden public life. Gideon Bechtel, father of Orton Bechtel, one of the partners in the Ratz-Bechtel firm [Ratz-Bechtel is in Kitchener] was one of the founders of the Wilmot Municipal Telephone System. When the late Mr. Bechtel gave up his directorship of the telephone systems, Mr. Steinman was elected in his place. During his tenure the company progressed, adding a new exchange building and switching board. Mr. Steinman has not been on the directorate for some years now. It is significant that his [telephone?] number is one.

The name Steinman is synonymous with firefighting in Baden. He was a fireman when the firefighting apparatus was an old hand pumper and reel. He was given a commission by the village trustees to organize a brigade to man the first pumper bought by the village. He forgets the year. However, it was a well-turned-out brigade of volunteers with natty uniforms which they bought themselves. And speaking of buying things, the brigade members contributed half the money to buy the second pumper some years later '96 or else the pumper wouldn't have been bought. Today, the need of good firefighting apparatus is seen, and a large water-carrying machine is housed in the fire hall. Mr. Steinman was born on the farm now owned by William Miller on the Baden outskirts. It was then owned by his grandfather, Chris Miller. Old Chris Miller was a hardy old character. His leg became caught in a threshing machine and he was taken to Tavistock where a doctor later proved a quack '96 cut it off with no anesthetic. Later, he continued work with an artificial leg. The leg is one of the large number of curios and antiques Mr. Steinman has in various places around the Baden store.

Next to the Miller farm lived one of Baden's most illustrious sons, Adam Beck. Sir Adam was one of those who carried on the battle to obtain hydro for Ontario as a public utility. Mrs. Steinman recalls that although Beck reached the heights of the civil service and political work he never forgot Baden. More than once he returned to the village for a good old-fashioned sauerkraut supper. Whenever anyone wants to track down any of Baden's history, he heads for Mr. Steinman's place. He has minute books and pictures of historical interest in a couple of large scrap books. One of the books is prefaced by the sage advice: "The only thing costly about good farm implements is trying to get along without them." He has trouble hanging onto some of the valuable curios. One things that disappeared was a model steam engine made by Adam Beck. Another was the first survey map of Baden and Wilmot made in 1856 by Adam's father Jacob. It was taken by Ontario hydro men and not returned. But there are still enough interesting old pieces and enough interest in the stories of Mr. Steinman for the historically minded to pay him a visit any time.
