Charles A. Ahrens & Sons, Slipper Factory, Queen Street, Berlin - When merchants or manufacturers have to build or move to new premises of larger dimensions than those they were occupying, it is a sure sign that their business is prospering. Such is the case with Messrs. Charles A. Ahrens & Sons, who manufacture the finer kinds of slippers. These gentlemen have been established in business over four years and a half and have commanded a large measure of success, so much indeed that they found their present place too small for them, and so they have moved into their new establishment on Queen Street, near the corner of King Street. The new premises are 41x100 feet in dimensions and three stories in height. These will be fitted up with al the latest and most improved machinery specially adapted to their line of manufacture. They make slippers in embroidered velvet, fancy plush, fancy repp, superior repp and fine and common repp, the uppers being imported from Germany. They also manufacture repp foxed and tweed foxed slippers, either machine or hand sewed. The firm give employment to thirty-five skilled hands in their factory, and the indications are that this number will have to be increased in the near future, should business continue to increase at its present rate. The gentlemen are enterprising and progressive citizens, and are held in the highest estimation in the community. Messrs Chas. A. Ahrens & Sons are situated on the third flat, used as factory, and part of second floor as warehouse. Mr. C.A. Ahrens is the proprietor of the building, which is partly occupied by Randall & Ross as a wholesale grocery and liquor business.

King Street , North Side

Queen St. North.

On the corner there was a frame building lengthwise with King Street, occupied by J. U. Tyson, dealer in groceries, wines, liquors and meats, erected about 1833. In 1841 Sheriff George Davidson bought this building and in it opened the first Post Office in 1842. His brother William was associated with him. Probably during 1845 Doering & Ahrens occupied the premises as a general store. A little later the firm was Huber & Ahrens. Mr. Huber acted as magistrate for a number of years, in which occupation he was popular and had much to do, people coming from small surrounding villages to Mr. Huber for fair trial. He was the second reeve in Berlin.

Next came a barber shop occupied by George A. Fischer who also served as dentist and as fruit dealer.

A house erected by C. A. Ahrens of Huber and Ahrens. Mr. Ahrens had a brick vault at the back of his kitchen, lined with an iron chest and considered fire proof. He was the first treasurer of Waterloo County and had this vault for safe keeping of his books and papers. The house was later occupied by Dr. Mylius.

Louis Breithaupt, who came from Buffalo in 1861 after having started his tanning business in Berlin in 1857, previously bought the corner of King and Queen Streets, and erected there the first section of the American Block in 1862.

Next to the Dr. Mylius house there was a two story brick building erected about 1855. It was occupied by Baedeker and Steubing who had a considerable business as book sellers and stationers, also as dealers in wallpaper, etc., besides doing some publishing. This business, moved later to the corner of King and Frederick Streets, continued until Mr. Steubing's death.

In his younger years Mr. Baedeker was a carpenter and had cut his knee with an adze, necessitating amputation and substitution of a cork leg.

On the site of the present Steel's store, George Davidson, later sheriff, erected a building in 1845 and moved the Post Office there when Doering and Ahrens occupied the corner store. Mr. Davidson also had a general store in this new building. About 1855 Kranz & Stroh occupied the building as a general store.

Next came a building occupied at first by George Klein and later the site of Henry Knell's jewelery shop.

John Winger's pump shop. Wooden pipe called pump logs were of about ten-inch timber, tamarack or pine logs with a bore of about 3". The pumps were mostly finished square and surmounted with turned tops.

A two story frame building painted white. John Winger's house. Eby's history mentions John Winger as having come from Pennsylvania in 1836.

A ten-foot lane leading back to the Public School grounds and into Winger's yard. The highest ground in this vicinity was in Winger's yard. Children were in the habit of sliding down the hill in winter to King Street. In 1840 Mr. Bentler erected a building and occupied the second floor as dwelling and shoe shop. Martin Messner had a music store on the ground floor which was a few steps above the street level. In 1855-6 Andrew Nicolaus took over the Winger house and changed it to a hotel. The first considerable street grading operation in Berlin was the lowering of the corner of King and Frederick and vicinity 8 to 10 feet. This put the St. Nicholas Hotel, as it was called, under the necessity of being extended downward one story and this lower part became the hotel office and bar room. At the westerly end of the hotel there was a shed and stable for horses. Over the shed, approached by a stairway, there was a hall known as St. Nicholas Hall used for concerts, balls and entertainments generally. At the rear of the adjoining St. Nicholas Hall there was a building on the high ground known as the Turner Hall and used as German Turnverein.

QUEEN STREET SOUTH, EAST SIDE.

On the corner of King Street Rehscher's vaulted cellar already spoken of.

An open space.

A two-story rough-cast building with two-story veranda along the Queen Street front built by Martin Anthes (father of John S. Anthes) in 1835 when it was considered one of the best houses in the village. Henry Stroh purchased this house from Mr. Anthes about 1837. Jacob Stroh was born in this house. Behind it there was a garden of about an acre of land. There were 31 pine stumps on the property when Mr. Stroh took possession and these stumps had to be laboriously removed as stump- pulling machines, which came later, were not then available. The well on the lot was only nine feet deep. Henry Stroh carried on a shoe shop in his house until he entered into partnership with Carl Kranz, on King Street.

In 1857, after he had dissolved partnership with Kranz, Henry Stroh built a one and one-half story frame building next to his house and used it as a shoe store. Mr. Stroh continued in this shoe business until 1863 when he went into partnership with Mr. Reinhold Lang, the tanner. The Queen Street shoe shop was changed to a dwelling. Later Mr. Vanderhart, a tailor, had his shop in this building and after him Carl Englehart had it as photographer. Henry Stroh sold his house to George King. Later Charles Ahrens owned it and had it moved to the corner of Shanley and Braun Streets about 1880.

A one and one-half story frame building erected about 1837 by Jacob Kraemer, later on Frederick Street, as spoken of. Later an addition was added to the front and the building used as the local post office, with William Davidson in charge. Later George Seip purchased the building and used it as a saloon, with a bowling alley in the rear, the first bowling alley in Berlin. William Jaffray lived in the house for a time and later William Knell, son-in-law of Mr. Seip.

A one and one-half story frame building, originally a cooper shop, later the dwelling of Mr. Seip, after he sold the other building. In 1860 he built a brewery, known as Seip's brewery. Under the whole building he had a vaulted cellar built of field stone. Power for the brewery was supplied by a horse-power contained in an attached shed, shelter for the horses. Seip had a high reputation for good beer. He at first made his own malt, but later purchased it. After George Seip's death his son Louis continued the business until about 1880. The building was finally torn down to make room for the present auditorium.

The cooper shop, a small one story building, with brick chimney such as coopers used to heat staves for their barrel making, operated by Henry Brickner who later had his shop at the corner of Young and King Streets. Later Adam Stein had the Queen Street cooper shop. The Berlin coopers were experts in the making of what was called tight-wear,that is water-tight barrels, in large tuns which they made for the brewers.

A very early building, occupied by John Peters, a cabinet maker in Hoffman's factory, about 1860. The building had an outside stairway at the back. Peters was a bird lover and expert in trapping native song birds, mocking birds, cat birds, finches, etc., which he hung under his veranda roof in public display.

On the corner of Church Street a frame house occupied by Mr. Knechtel, a weaver, about 1842-1850. Knechtel moved to a farm in Mannheim where later he was injured in the spine by a falling tree to such an extent that he was bedfast for fourteen or fifteen years. He lived to about 1871. Conrad Doering occupied the Queen Street house for a time. He also was a weaver and made coverlets, etc. The house was torn down to make room for the present one of brick built by Dr. Clemens and later occupied by the late Dr. Walters.

Church Street.

On the south side St. Paul's Lutheran Church.

A one and one-half story unpainted frame building with gable towards the street, the dwelling, about 1860, of John Fleischauer, a laborer, a native of Hessen, Germany.

A one and one-half story house occupied by E. Kern, cabinet maker, about 1860 and later by John Ansted.

A vacant lot.

George Street.

Joseph Schneider originally owned all the land between George Street and Mill Street, mostly woods at that time, and extending to Benton and Eby Streets.

Mrs. Schneider, 85, Passes Away, Wife of Pioneer Widow of the late John M. Schneider, founder of the J. M. Schneider Ltd., Mrs. Helena Schneider died at her residence, 379 Queen Street., S., early this afternoon after an illness of a year.

Mrs. Schneider celebrated her 85th birthday two days ago, Nov. 1, and although in failing health, she received messages of felicitation from many of her friends.

A life long resident, Mrs. Schneider was held in high respect by all who knew her. Possessing an energetic and generous character, she played a large part in the difficult pioneering days of the founding of the J. M. Schneider Company 55 years ago.

BORN IN KITCHENER

A great deal of the success of the now nationally known meat packing company was due to her untiring efforts and the encouragement she gave her husband in the early days. From a small beginning the business grew rapidly into the universally known firm it is today.

"The best bargain I ever got was when I married" was the statement made by the late Mr. Schneider in 1939, on the occasion of his 80th birthday, when he referred to his success. Mr. Schneider died Feb. 23, 1942. The daughter of the late Charles Ahrens, former city treasurer and founder of Charles A. Ahrens Shoe Company, and the late Mrs. Ahrens, Mrs. Schneider was born in 1859 at the family residence located on Queen St.

Her marriage to Mr. Schneider took place at the home of her parents Nov. 8. 1883. The ceremony was performed by Rev. F. W. Tuerk, pastor of the New Jerusalem Church of that day. The couple marked their golden wedding anniversary Nov. 9, 1932

HELPED TO BUILD CHURCH

Always prominent in city affairs, one of the greatest pleasures in Mrs. Schneider's life was that which she shared with her husband in the erection of the new edifice by the Church of New Jerusalem, the Church of the Good Shepherd, Queen St. N., which opened in 1935.

Schneider had major impact on businesses, recreation. By Susan Hoffman for the Record

Born in Berlin (Kitchener) in 1888, Norman Schneider was a son of J. M. Schneider, founder of the meat-packing company bearing his name.

He joined the business in 1911, serving as vice-president, president and chair man of the board and a director. He retired as chairman in 1970.

Schneider had many interests beyond work. One of his numerous community initiatives was the formation of the Waterloo-Wellington Airport.

He was involved in the establishment of the old Kitchener-Waterloo Airport on Lexington Road in Waterloo in 1930, and was later instrumental in the selection of the site of the present airport in Breslau.

Schneider was a member of the Airport Commission from 1946 until 1971. In 1973, a building was named the Norman C. Schneider Airport Terminal in recognition of his 50 years of service to aviation.

In 1936, Schneider covered the Olympics in Berlin, Germany, for the Kitchener Daily Record, and in 1939, he was the official movie photographer when King George VI and Queen Elizabeth visited Kitchener. Through the generosity of Schneider's family this film is available on video tape from the Victoria Park Historical Committee in Kitchener.

Schneider was elected Liberal member of Parliament for Waterloo North in 1952 in a by-election called after L. O. Breithaupt was appointed lieutenant-governor.

He was re-elected in 1953 and again in 1957, when the Liberals lost power after 22 years and Schneider was the only Liberal left between Toronto and Windsor. He lost his seat in a 1958 election when the Conservatives under John Diefenbaker took over.

Schneider turned his avid love of skiing into a community project, encouraging the purchase of the Chicopee ski slopes by the Grand River Conservation Authority and the cities of Kitchener and Waterloo to preserve them for public use. In 1972, he was given a life membership in the ski club after 36 years of service on their behalf.

Schneider was also a member of the Kitchener-Waterloo High School Board for nine years, an original director of the Kitchener-Waterloo Federated Appeal, a president of the Kitchener Young Men's Club and a director at Economical Mutual Insurance Co. for 15 years. Another great interest was Doon Pioneer Village, now Doon Heritage Cross Roads. He served on the board for many years and helped build its collection, donating a LeRoy car, an automobile made in (Berlin) Kitchener by the Good Brothers.

Schneider died in 1985, at the age of 96. He was inducted into the Waterloo County Hall of Fame.

Ex-MP, business leader, Norman Schneider dies

Norman C. Schneider, retired chairman of the board of J.M. Schneider Inc. and a former member of Parliament for Waterloo North died early today at his home. He was 96. A son of J.M. Schneider, founder of the third largest meat packing company in Canada, Norman Schneider was born in Berlin, now Kitchener, Dec. 9, 1888.

After graduating from high school, he served an apprenticeship as a machinist from 1905-1911 with the Tuerk Engine and Tool Co.
As youngsters, he and his brother, Fred, helped their father and took sausages in a horse and wagon to the Kitchener Farmers' Market. Norman joined the business in 1911 and rose through the company ranks, serving as vice-president, president, chairman of the board and a director. He retired as chairman in 1970. In the political field, Schneider won a 1952 byelection for the Liberals. The byelection was necessitated by the appointment of the late L.O.Breithaupt as lieutenant-governor of Ontario. He was re-elected in 1953 and in 1957. But in 1958, he was defeated by the late O.W. (Mike) Weichel, a Conservative.

Among his many community endeavors was the Waterloo-Wellington Airport. He was involved in establishing the old Kitchener-Waterloo Airport on Waterloo's Lexington Road in 1930 and was instrumental in selecting the site at Breslau for the existing airport.
Schneider was a member of the airport commission from its founding in 1946 until 1971. In 1973, a $103,000 terminal building was named the Norman C. Schneider Airport Terminal in recognition of his 50 years of service to aviation.
Although he flew in everything from old Jennies to Tiger Moths and often took over the controls of other airplanes, he didn't become a pilot because his parents felt it was "irresponsible" of a married man with three children.
He enlisted in the army in the First World War, took his 1915 Model-T Ford with him to Ottawa and was commissioned a lieutenant because of his experience in the local militia. But he never went overseas because he had had rheumatic fever as a youngster and had a heart murmur.

In 1936, he covered the Olympics in Berlin for The Record and sent back stories about "heiling hordes" cheering Adolf Hitler. And in 1939, he was the official movie photographer for Kitchener when the King and Queen visited the city.
An avid skier, he was given a life membership in the Chicopee Ski Club in 1972 after 38 years service. He started skiing in his 40's and continued for more than 40 years, finally giving it up at 88 because his legs "couldn't take it anymore." But he continued to walk at mile a day providing the weather was good.

Schneider was a member of the Kitchener-Waterloo high school board for 9 years, an original director of the K-W Federated Appeal and a member of Grand River Lodge AF and AM. He also served on the boards of the University of Waterloo, the Children's Aid Society and St. Mary's Hospital, Kitchener.

He was a member of the citizen's advisory committee of St. Jerome's college, a member of the Waterloo-Wellington Flying Club, a past president of the Kitchener Young Men's Club and a director for 15 years of the Economical Mutual Insurance Co.
One of his greatest interests was the Doon Pioneer Village. He served on its governing board for many years and helped to establish many of the exhibits including a LeRoy car, the first production automobile built in Canada. Long after he retired form active business, Schneider enjoyed motorcyling throughout the Kitchener-Waterloo area, giving it up at the age of 85.

In March 1977, he was given an honorary life membership to the Salvation Army advisory board in Kitchner because he had served on the 12-member body for a number of years. Surviving are his wife, two sons, one daughter and one sister. A public memorial service will be held on Thursday, Sept. 5, at 4 p.m. at the Church of the Good Shepherd, Queen Street North and Margaret Avenue in Kitchener, followed by a reception at the Centre in the Square.

55 YEARS IN TRADE, PACKING EXECUTIVE F. H. SCHNEIDER DIES

Frederick H. Schneider, Chairman of the Board of J. M. Schneider Ltd. and a company official for 55 years, died Thursday at his home at 3453 King St. E. He was 77.

He was born Aug. 1, 1890, in Kitchener, a son of the late J. M. Schneider, the founder of the meat-packing company which has become internationally known. He entered his father's business in 1906 when he was 16. In 1907 he was appointed accountant for the company, in 1911, secretary- treasurer, in 1937, general manager, in 1943 president and in 1963, chairman of the board.

For many years he drew a $12 weekly salary. He was a firm believer that an executive cannot earn his salary sitting at a desk, and he spent considerable time in the plant, discussing problems with foremen and workers. Until 1955 he served as a clerk and meat cutter in the retail store and was also a livestock buyer.

He and his brother, Norman, were mainly responsible for the decision to abandon the plant their father had begun on upper Courtland Avenue (now Silverwoods Ltd.) and to construct an almost new and complete plant on Courtland Avenue East where the firm is now located. For the first time, the company borrowed $200,000 from a bank.

The company was formed with $300 capital as a part-time business by J. M. Schneider who firmly refused to borrow a dollar. On Oct. 26, 1956, Mr. Schneider became the first man to be honored by the Meat Packers Council of Canada at a special 50th anniversary in the business party at the Kress Hotel, Preston.

In addition to his business connections with the J. M. Schneider company, he was president of Stirling Realty Ltd. and a former director of the MacDonald Electric Co. Ltd., and the Equitable Life Insurance Co. of Canada. He served as a Kitchener alderman for three years and as a member and past chairman of the public school board for four years. He was a governor of Hamilton College. He was an active member of the Canada Association of the new Church (Swedenborgian) and was a former member of the local church board. He was past president of the Meat Packers Council of Canada. He was a member of the K-W Rotary Club, of Westmount Golf and Country Club, the K-W Granite Club and the Grand River Lodge A.F. and A.M. He was interested in golfing and fishing.

Mrs. Schneider, the former Ella Daniels, predeceased him. Surviving are one son, Frederick P. Jr.; one daughter, Mrs. R. C. (Jean) Hawkings of Deep River, Ont.; one brother, Norman C. of RR 1, Kitchener; one sister, Mrs. W. V. (Emma) Siegner of Kitchener and eight grandchildren. He was predeceased by two brothers, Charles and Herbert.

The body will be at the Sandrock Funeral Home from Saturday noon until 1 p.m. Monday when removal will be made to the Church of the Good Shepherd. The church service will be conducted by Rev. Paul Zacharias at 2 p.m. Burial will be in Woodland cemetery. Donations to the Rotary Crippled Children Centre will be accepted as expressions of sympathy.
