HIGHWAY BUILDING
IN EATON COUNTY

The total cost of state highway
construction in Eaton county during
1934 financed from the $12,736,227
National Recovery Highway grant to
Michigan from the federal govern­
ment, including engineering and con­
tingencies. is $111,500. The greater
portion of the $12,736,227 grant was
earned on 1934 construction, although
a relatively small amount was earned
during the last months of 1933. The
Eaton county projects are as follows:

LANSING
(By Frank D. Brown, Special Cor­
respondent.)
Amid repercussions of the WilsonAtwood fight for possession of the
secretary of state's office and threats
of criminal action against certain of­
ficials for their conduct of the Detroit
recount, Michigan today has a new
governor and a new legislature. On
these two highly important branches
of the state government is focussed
the attention of a vast army of tax­
payers and interested citizens bent up­
on deliverance from some of the ills
that beset the state and a prompt,
effective dispatch of the business at
hand by their elective officials.
The capital was the scene of a gala
event last week Tuesday when Gov.
Frank D. Fitzgerald and other mem­
bers of the official family were usher­
ed into office. The inaugural cere­
monies were among the most brilliant
of recent years and resulted in the in­
flux into Lansing of a galaxy of poli­
tical stellar lights unequalled since
Gov. Green's regime.
Following on the heels of the inau­
guration by. a single day came the
convening of the 58th legislature and
the governor's message to the law­
makers on Thursday. With the house
of representatives divided almost
equally between members of the two
parties, observers see an interesting
session in prospect during which most
anything can happen. Partisan con­
siderations are bound to have a wide
influence on much of the legislation
to be enacted. On no small number of
bills it is expected that votes will be
cast one way or the other for no rea­
son at all except that the lawmaker
happens to be either a Republican or a
Democrat
This condition will be found exist­
ent for the most part in the House,
where 49 Democrats and 47 Republi­
cans answer roll calls. At the present
four seats are vacant end cannot be
filled until the last of February when
special elections will be held to re­
place those members who lost their
lives in the Kerns Hotel disaster. The
Senate has a safe Republican major­
ity and in that quarter party maneu­
vering will be less in evidence.
The first clash of these strong par­
tisan interests occurred shortly after
the House had been called to order
Wednesday afternoon and the Repub­
lican bloc came within four votes of
naming Representative George C.
Watson of Capac as speaker. After
hours of jockeying and many parlia­
mentary entanglements, the Demo­
cratic- majority, holding steadfastly
to party lines, overruled a 25-year-old
precedent and succeeded in naming
Representative George A. Schroeder
of Detroit to the important post of
presiding officer.
For many years it has been the pro­
cedure of the House to select its offic­
ers by a majority vote of the members-elect, making it necessary for a
candidate to secure at least 51 votes.
By abrogating this rule and declaring
a majority of those present and voting
sufficient to elect, the Democrats were
able to stave off a deadlock and gain
control of the legislative machinery
on that wing of the capital. In event
this rule had not been overridden
there existed the possibility that or­
ganization could not be effeced until
after the special elections more than
a month away.
Discord in the Democratic ranks re-,
suited in the election of Cart F. De­
lano, third term Republican member
from Kalamazoo county, as speaker
pro tempore. Myles F. Grays’ wide
popularity among members of both
factions brought him re-election to
clerkship which carries with it the
comfortable salary' of $5,000 annually.
Mr. Gray had served the preceding
session despite the fact that he is list­
ed as a Republican.
Lawrence O'Neill, a Democrat mem­
ber of the last legislature, was chosen
.sergeant-at-rnns and Leland Galt of
Grand Rapids, postmaster.
While the House struggled with its
the Senate on the oppo­
site side of the building idled away
the hours in recess, preferring to
know what happened in the lower
chamber before proceeding with its
own organization. Senate Republi­
cans in caucus were able to reach a
speedy agreement on their slate erf of­
ficers and Thursday morning elected

�NAVAL NOTES.

Oar th**.
Following the first glamor of ex­
ploration and hopes for returns in
gold and jewels, the people of North­
ern Europe began to realise the op­
portunities and necwwity for actual
colonisation of this new land. Fur­
thermore, living conditions for any
except the nobility were exceedingly
poor. Again, most of the nations of
Northern Europe 4&gt;ad cast away from
the religious control of Rome and had
established state religions. Any di­
vergence from these state religions
wa» treated as a felony or even as
treason. It is not surprising, there­
fore, thjit certain sects, social groups
and adherents of suppressed political
parties cast longing eyes toward the
westward, hoping to find some place
where they could settle, worship God
according to the dictates of their own
conscience, some place where it would
not be so difficult to make an honest
living for themselves and their fam­
ilies. The first of these migrations
from England arrived in May. 1607,
under the command of Captain New­
port, and settled in what we today
call Virginia. The town was called
Jamestown and the river upon which
the town lay was called the James
river, both in honor of the current
King of England. The flag under
which that expedition sailed and
which they hoisted over their town
»was the Union Jack of England, so
called because it was composed of a
union of the English and Scottish
flags and commemorated the union of
the English and Scottish parliaments
in 1603. The field ot the flag was
blue. Two crosses appeared, the red
cross of St. George with a white out­
line, and the white cross of St An­
drew on the blue field.
This same flag was used by the pil­
grims who arrived on the Mayflower
and established the colony at Ply­
mouth in 1620. For some reason, the
flag has been given the most prom­
inence in connection with the latter
group, and is usually referred to as
the Mayflower flag.

Mrs. Edward C. Dale of Philadel­
phia has been selected by the Secre­
tary of the Navy as the sponsor for
the destroyer, U. S. S. Dale, when it
is launched at the New York Navy
Yard January 23, 1935. Her husband
is the great-grandson of the Commo­
dore Dale who was the first lieuten­
ant of tl.e Bonhomme Richard during
the engagement with and the capture
of the British ship Serapis, September
23, 1779.
Representative Carl Vinson of the
House Naval Affairs Committee has
announced his intention of pressing
for the construction of the Nicara­
guan inter-oceanic caanl. This wat­
erway would be 257 miles long and
the cost is estimated at (720,000,000.
The Secretary of the Navy has as­
signed the following names to the six
submarines to be built under the pro­
visions of the "Vinson Bill”: SS 176Plunger; SS 177-Pinna; SS 178-Pollack; SS 179-Perch; SS 180-Pickerel;
SS 181-Pompano.
The custom of striking bells at sea
to indicate the time originated in the
following manner:
In the days before watches were
worn on every wrist, the steersman
used to time his tricks at the wheel
with a sand glass. Due to the diffi­
culty of steering the old windjam­
mers, a trick was only half an hour,
and each time the glass was turned a
bell would be struck to indicate the
number of the trick in the watch.
Hence the custom of eight bells to a
watch.

The first iron ship built by the U. 8.
Navy was the U. 8. 8. Michigan in
1844.

In the attack on Vera Cruz by the
U. 8. Army and Navy forces during
the war with Mexico, the Navy cover­
ed the landing of the Army and land­
ed 10,000 troops in a single day.
Tne first American Man-of-war to
round the Horn and enter the Pacific
was the frigate Essex. She was also
the first American Man-of-war to
round the cape of Good Hope.

STRIKER Wi tiUCT.

By Alma Cruttenden.
(Last week’s letter.’
Nathaniel Golden is confined to nis
bed and has been for the past three
weeks.
Oiristmas Day Mr. and Mra.' Wal­
ter Ickes celebrated their 50th wed­
ding anniversary. Fifty years ago at
the home of the bride’s parents in
Baltimore, Sarah Bowes became the
bride of Walter Ickes. The couple
was attended by Charles Gaskill and
Mattie Callahan, who were married
one week later; both are now deceas­
ed. Early in the day guests began to
arrive, until about eighty had assem­
bled. Music was furnished through­
out the day by the Herrington fam­
ily, Heber Foster and the Densmore
sisters. The dinner was served cafe­
teria style from a very beautifully
decorated table, centered .with a wed­
ding cake decorated with gold and
yellow roses, topped by miniature
bride and groom under a golden wed­
ding bell. The cake was the gift of
Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Ickes and Robert
of Marquette, Mich., and -was present­
ed by Martha Ickes Marshall sister
of Floyd, who read greetings from
them extending congratulations and
regrets of their absence. Following
the dinner, a program of music, a talk
by Oliver Ickes, a couple of poems
prepared especially for the occasion.
Esther Striker appeared and mingled
among the guests, dressed in the
wedding gown and gloves of fifty
years ago; a piece of the original wed­
ding cake was also displayed. Mra.
E. M. Ickes presented Mr. and Mra.
Ickes with very well chosen words, a
purse from the assembled guests.
Late in the day all returned to their
homes, each leaving wishes for many
more years of happy and prosperous
wedded life. Among those present
were their daughter, Mra. Archie Her­
rington, and family of Battle Creek;
Nelson Ickes (grandson) and lady
friend of Grand Rapids; Mr. and Mrs.
Burke Bowes of Portland; besides the
local relatives and those from Hast­
ings, Nashville and Maple Grove. In
the evening about fifty relative and
neighbors came for the evening, in
the nature of an old time belling and
surprise, reception. Visiting and mu­
sic furnished entertainment and the
afternoon program was repeated.

for even greater automobile buying
next year, that the De Soto Motor
Corporation would also announce
another car in January which would
be a companion car to the present

Predictions that cars will be even

verified this week, when the first of
the 1935 Airflow cars was pre­
viewed by automobile editors be­

There has been a great deal of

cars would be like, since Walter P.

models would be a permanent part
of the Chrysler Motors line.
This new Airflow car is expected
to be the most advanced of the
streamlined cars to first be viewed
by the public in January at the New

been smartly restyled. The editors
found that the front of the car had

The 115th semi-annual Grand Rap­
ids Furniture Exposition, where the
Lentz Table Co. again'displayed, came
to a close officially Wednesday, but
late comers were to be taken care of
just the same.
The larger attendance and increas­
ed buying was surely appreciated by
furniture men.
The improved sales in dining room
furniture was seen as an indication
that the furniture industry is heeded
for better times. Sales in upholster­
ed furniture which have led the field
in recent months, continued to head
the list and in some instances were
characterized as phenomenal.
The
marked improvement in case good
sales which this market has seen, cen­
ters chiefly about bedroom furniture,
as in the past, but the demand for
dining room furniture is reported
greatly improved.
While the increased attendance has
been a source of gratification, one of
the most encouraging aspects of the
market, according to officials, is the
great number of dealers arriving from
smaller centers throughout the na­
tion, including representatives of
stores who have- not been in the
Grand Rapids market for a number of
years. The presence of this type of
buyer is believed to indicate that the
furniture trade has shared in the gen­
eral retail pickup across the country
and that these stores which have pur­
sued a hand to mouth buying policy
the last five years are now finding
their stocks inadequate to meet con­
ditions.
Directors voted to hold the summer
market from June 24 to July 13 in­
clusive.
There also was a unanimous deci­
sion by the directors to hold an offi­
cial shewing some time in May, the
exact dates to be determined later.
F. Stuart Foote, president of the
exposition association, said general
optimism prevails in the market and
exhibitors everywhere are pleased
with the increased business they have
obtained.
Locally, the Lentz factory will run
along about the same as it has been
doing in" a small way. They booked
more orders, but not enough to war­
rant a more extensive operation of
the plant, much as they would like to.
Ralph Hess of the Hess &amp; Son fur­
niture store, visited the market on
Wednesday of last week. He was ac­
companied by Mrs. Hess and they’
visited his brother, Harold Hess, and
wife.

Change In Program
For WLC On Jan. 23
Mrs. C. L. Bauer, Hastings, Substitute
For Mrs. LaNola Cross Fox, Of
Kalamazoo.
Owing to the fact that Mrs. LaNola
Cross Fox of Kalamazoo, who was to
have entertained with a “surprise
feature" for the January 23 program
of the Woman’s Literary club, will be
unable to come to Nashville at this
time, the program committee an­
nounces as a substitution program,
the consent of Mrs. C. D. Bauer of
Hastings to address the club on the
"Fascinating Personalities of Mich­
igan," with the further possibility
that she may bring with her several
other ladies who would also have a
part in this program.

Nashville Co-Op. Co.
Reorganizes Board
The Nashville Co-Operative com­
pany, which at its recent annual
meeting voted unanimously to con­
tinue as an organization and elected
its directors, completed its reorgani­
zation on Wednesday afternoon of last
week with the election of L. D. Gard­
ner as president, Chester Smith as
vice president, and T. J. Mason as
secretary-manager.
It was decided to ship stock every
other week for the present, beginning
Wednesday of this week with that
schedule.

Barry and Eaton county lawyers
are reported to have united in re­
questing and urging Russell R. Mcpeek. Circuit Judge, to become a can­
didate for re-election. Without re­
gard to politics, every lawyer in this
judicial district has signed a petition
directed to Judge McPeek, expressing
this unanimity of desire.
The petition reads: "We, the under­
signed, members of the Bar residing
and practicing in Barry or Eaton
counties, realizing the importance of
maintaining the high standard of the
Michigan Judiciary, and recognizing
the excellent services heretofore ren­
dered by the Honorable Russell R.
McPeek, as Circuit Judge presiding
over the 5th Judicial Circuit of the
state, and being mindful of his ability
as a jurist, his character as a man,
and believing it to be of importance
to the people of the district that his
services be retained, we herefore re­
quest and urge him to become a can­
didate for re-election."
It is said that in the 10 years he
has been circuit judge not a single
case that has been appealed from
Barry county has been reversed by
the Supreme Court.
Petitions are being circulated in the
two counties in Judge McPeek’s be­
half and are being numerously sign­
ed. With the unanimous endorse­
ment of the lawyers of the two coun­
ties it would hardly ssem that there
will ?&gt;e any opposition. In that event
a primary election will not be neces­
sary for that office.
Judge Russell R. McPeek has called
our attention to an unintentional er­
ror in last week’s News in which
was stated that he is serving his first
term by appointment to fill a vacancy
resulting from the death of Judge
Clement Smith.
Judge McPeek
writes as follows:
“In the spring primary of 1923, I
was nominated to fill the unexpired
term caused by the death of Judge
Clement Smith, and also for the reg­
ular six year term beginning January
1, 1924. At the April election follow­
ing, I was elected for both terms. In
1929, I was again nominated and
elected for the regular term of six
years, which is completed at the ex­
piration of this present year.”

LANSING
(By Frank D. Brown, Special Cor­
respondent.)
While the second week of the 1935
legislature produced few actual accompllshments, the activity and the
animosities engendered by the “rump”
recount special .session during the
closing days of 1934, gave every evi­
dence of future deeds that will make
radical changes in the state method of
government.
Lieut Governor Thomas Read pro­
duced another trick from his anti­
lobby bag in a conversation with Sec­
retary of State Orville E. Atwood. He
hit at the practice of state depart­
ments using employes to lobby mea­
sures through the House and Senate.
This practice has been so universal in
past years as to become an accepted
custom among most members of the
legislature and no bill affecting any
established division of our govern­
ment has progressed far toward pass­
age without a bevy of state employes
appearing in the legislative halls tn
an effort to foster or hinder the mea­
sure.
So usual is this practice that every
governor in recent years has had an
unofficial legislative agent who open­
ly took polls of the intentions of the
legislators on administrative mea­
sures. Kit F. Clardy occupied thia
role during the Brucker administra­
tion and there seems to be every rea­
son to believe that former Senator
Wm. F. Doyle of Escanaba has been
drafted by Governor Frank D. Fitz­
gerald. although Doyle's activities
thus far this year have been to renew
old friendships and to gain the
friendship and confidence of the
"freshmen" members of the legisla­
ture.
But this practice will cease if the
lieutenant governor has his way.
"If you have any measures affect­
ing your department,” Read told the
secretary of state, “come to my office
and we will talk the situation over.
I will call into conference any Sena­
tors that are interested and I can as­
sure you that the interests of your
department will be better served than
if you attempted to Influence Sena­
tors by using employe-lobbyists:- I
do not believe that the tax-payers ofc
Michigan want to pay salaries for
lobbyists."
The lieutenant governor has re­
peatedly declared that he will do any­
thing in his power to run the furtive,
fly-by-night legislative agents out of
the Capitol and out of Lansing while
declaring that there is a proper place
in legislative activities for those lob­
byists who openly and properly rep­
resent various business and social
groups.
Evidence that the House of Repre­
sentatives also plans an active wy on
outside interference with the iegislaors came to light when Speaker Geo.
Schroeder of Detroit ordered the lux­
urious divans which line the walls of
the House chamber into limbo.
In
making this order, Schroeder indicat­
ed that he was specially incensed by
the practice of unknown lobbyists sit­
! ting on the floor of the House and giv­
ing erders to members during whis­
pered conferences.
The week produced two concrete
instances that the legislature intends
to cooperate with Governor Fitzger­
ald. The Senate, in record time and
almost without debate gave its ap­
proval and confirmation to the Fitz­
gerald appointees who have been
named. These Include Grover C. Dill­
man as state w’elfare director; James
F. Thomson as agricultural commis­
sioner; former Congressman John C.
Ketcham as insurance commissioner;
and former Representative Joseph O.
Armstrong as commissioner of par­
dons and paroles.
In the House of Representatives,
Rep. Miles M. Callaghan of Reed City
served notice upon the membership
that he will force a record roll call
vote on future attempts to secure
long week-end adjournments.
Governor Fitzgerald has been out­
spoken in his request for a 90-day ses­
sion of the legislature for two rea­
sons. The first is that business ia
kept tt .a state of unrest and suspense
during legislative sessions. The sec­
ond is that the taxpayers are assessed
more than $1,000 a day t» run the

THURSDAY, JANUARY 17, 1935
Today. As we awake each morning
to a new day lying fair and
unsullied before us, we can joyously
-atng with the Psalmist, “This is the
-day which the Lord hath made; we
will rejoice and be glad in it" This
inspiring declaration fills us with the
desire to live today in the right way
—the way of courage and high en­
deavor firm in our determination to
live up to our highest concept of good,
to hold to our ideals and standards,
that we do not trail them in the dust
by yielding to temptation.
It matters not what our mistakes
hold to fear or a sense of futility regardlng future efforts because, of the
failures, the disappointments, the
heartacres of the past Rather may
we gain from these experiences a
clearer vision that will enable us to
tread life’s highway with a surer step.
The measure of our achievement,
however, is not seen in worldly suc­
cess, no matter bow brilliant; that
will avail us not one iota in the final
accounting. It is to be found only in
the good we do.
So if at the close of day we look
back on some tender thought, kindly
word, or helpful deed, then tn truth
the book of remembrances will regis­
ter something of true worth. What
better time than now to start afresh
in such endeavor! Continually one is
called upon to face situations where
there is a choice between the higher
and the lower, between good and evil.
This conflict, which has always con­
fronted mankind, is the greatest bat­
tle we are called upon to fight, for in
our experiences, in-our health and in
all our affairs, our victory or our de­
feat is externalized
So if we would rejoice and be glad
in today, we must faithfully resist the
promptings of evil, and prove today
that right thinking and living is the
only way to happiness and well-be­
ing.
In the struggle against evil,
what better help could mortals have
than Christian Science with its clar­
ion note of hope, its noble ideals, and
its promise of boundless good? Clear­
ly it reveals the mighty actuality of
Spirit; and the. uriderstanding of the
allness of God and His divine, allcytrolling law enables its adherents
to realize the powerlessness and un­
reality of everything unlike Him. As
we place ourselves unreservedly un­
der God’s law, there is available for
our use a power which cannot be de­
feated—a power so dynamic that socalled material forces and physical
laws are utterly powerless before it
The Bible is replete with instances
of the power of spiritual law to annul
material belief. Daniel was safe in
lions' den, the three Hebrews
were unharmed in the fiery furnace,
because each had faith in the omni­
potence and omnipresence of God.
Steadfastly they refused to be lured
from their trust in God’s infinite
goodness by any suggestions of mor­
tal mind.
Therefore, each came
through his ordeal unscathed, prov­
ing that from thought that is at one
with God all evil must flee as dark­
ness before the light
Christ Jesus spoke and acted with
authority—the authority which came
to him from his recognition of spirit­
ual truth. And we, if we would speak
and act with authority, if we would
demonstrate our God-bestowed do­
minion over all discord, must also be
awake to the truth of being—the allness of God,, good, and the nothing­
ness of the assertive claims of evil.
No matter how forceful and actual
may seem the testimony of the ma­
terial senses, we must hold steadfast­
ly to Truth, for this understanding is
a rock of sure defence, a hiding place
from every claim of error. Mrs. Ed­
dy writes in “Science and Health
with Key to the Scriptures” (p. 480):
“If sin, sickness, and death were un­
derstood as nothingness, they would
disappear. As vapor melts before the
sun. so evil would vanish before the

:
open wide the very floodgates of’
health, happiness, peace, and prosper­
ity and their healing currents flow in­■
to our lives. There would then be no’
place in our consciousness for any­
thing discordant, no need for us to’
suffer. But, alas, how often we may’
stumble, for the way seems rough and
the pull of the world strong! If we
become absorbed in the pursuit of
those things which allure but give no
satisfaction in the possession, and
dally with these fleeting pleasures, we
miss the good from heaven.
Nevertheless, at each turn of the
dial we have a new day with fresh
mercies, fresh opportunities. In this
new day we can put far from us all

meeting
America’s
tremendous relief
problem deserve general support—
and careful examination. The propos­
als announced jn Washington for
shifting millions of men from a fed­
eral dole to jobs on public works must
be welcomed by every one who has
felt, or even seen, the ordinary man's
eagerness to escape dependence on
alms when offered self-respecting
work.
And there is reassurance in the
statement of Relief Administrator
Hopkins that job relief costs only 15
par cent more than direct relief. The
National Industrial Conference Board
had estimated 50 per cent. Probably
the amount varies according to the
proportion of labor and materials re­
quired on any specific job. The extra
cost of job relief is chiefly for mater­
ial. And against that there should be
deducted whatever value there may be
in the building, bridge, road or other
construction which results.
Right there is one of the points
deserving careful examination. Sec­
retary Ickes apparently is convinced
from his experience as Public Works
Administrator that billions of dollars
and millions of men can be usefully
employed on housing projects or sub­
sistence farms.
But no one knows
better than Mr. Ickes the difficulty of
putting out federal funds rapidly and
honestly on public works. We must
look a long way beyond blueprints in
any such program. For in so far as
it does result in useful construction
some of the cost above what would
have been spent as doles for the men
employed should be deducted.
But after all the human costs of
unemployment are the greatest—the
losses of morale and self-respect, of
confidence is one’s self and in an ec­
onomic and political system which
cannot find work for those eager to
work. There is the belief too that
idle hands will become as the old ax­
iom has it, "tools of the devil,” and
find some type of criminal or destruc­
tive employment There is also the
difficulty that men, long workless, ex­
perience of not becoming “rusty," of
retaining the “feel" of their work,
their skill and adaptability.
And that brings up a second point
in which the new program needs to be
most seriously questioned.
It pro­
vides for taring back to the care of
local relief agencies all those now
drawing federal funds whose unem­
ployment is not a result of the de­
pression. Perhaps for the sake of a
simpler description these people, es­
timated by Mr. Hopkins to comprise
about 20 per cent of the federal relief
rolls, have been labeled “unemploy
ables." The plan to require local
agencies to proride for these people
should relieve the Federal Govern­
ment of a burden which ought not
properly to have been put upon it.
Greater knowledge of needs and less
opportunity for abuses should give lo­
cal administration an advantage—
and a needed incentive.
But the thoughtless tendency to
condemn 3,000,000 or 4,000,000 Amer­
icans as "unemployables” should be
vigorously resisted. Some of the per­
sons thus labeled are disabled or aged.
But even then in many cases they
would like to be employed in some

Why should we not today align our
thinking with good as the only real­
ity, and thereby cast out the illusion

high-hearted vision that will enable

OBITUARY.
Bert McIntyre.
Bert McIntyre, the third son of
John,and Mary McIntyre, was bornin Maple Grove township, Barry Co.,
May 20, 1875, and died at a hospital
in Detroit Jan. 4, 1935, aged 59 years,
seven months and 14 days. His ear­
lier years were spent on a farm, on or
near the old homestead. He lived in
New York City about nine years, then
came to Detroit, where he has been
employed for nearly fifteen years.
He leaves to mourn their loss, two
brothers, John of Battle Creek and
Orson of Maple Grove; one sister,
Maggie Mclnnes of Battle Creek;
nieces, nephews, cousins and many
friends.

—Hastings postoffice receipts for
1934 dropped over $7000 from the
1933 receipts but they were still $20­
000 than required for a first class of­
fice. The receipts for 1934 amounted
to $63,108.27 in comparison with &lt;70,­
423.15 in 1933. Postmaster pointed
out that the general mail for the past
year was about the same as for 1933
but that an abnormal mailing busi­
ness from the Hastings Manufactur­
ing Co. in 1933 which dropped off sev­
eral thousand dollars during 1934 was
the principal reason for the drop in
the receipts. The other most out­
standing mailing firm which raises the
receipts of the Hastings postoffice
considerably -is the Michigan Wind­
storm Co.

Mrs. Harold Lundstrum will enter­
tain the Home Furnishing class this
week Thursday for an all day meet­
ing.
About 75 gathered at the home of
Mr. and Mrs. Carroll Hamilton Fri­
day night, which was in the form of|
a house warming and shower. A very
nice table and chair was presented]
the happy couple as a token of the
high esteem in which they are held.
A co-operative supper was served,
which all enjoyed. We are glad to
welcome this worthy young couple to
our neighborhood and join in with
their many friends in extending con­
gratulations and best wishes.
Leo Hickey and Miss Janice Bailey
of Lansing were quietly united in
marriage at the Resurrection church,
Lansing, on Jan. 5. The Rev. Fr. Ga­
briel pronounced the wedding rites.
Leo is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Dan
Hickey and has always lived in or
near this locality. He attended Nash­
ville high school, later going to Lans­
ing where he has been employed at
the Fisher Body works for the past
eight years, the past three months
having been transferred to the Flint
branch. Mrs. Hiqkey is a graduate
nurse, graduating from Sparrow hos­
pital and later accepting a position
with the Reo Co., administering to the
injured, giving first aid. etc.
Mr.
and Mrs. Hickey leave the first of the
week for Buffalo, N. T., where Leo
has been transferred and where they
expect to make their home. Leo has
many friends in and around his home
locality that extend hearty congratulaions to them and good wishes for
their success in their new field of laJ»r.
, Friends here of Mrs. Wm. Wil­
loughby were grieved to learn of her
death which occurred at her home in
Ithaca last Tuesday night. Mrs. Wil­
loughby has gained many friends in
this locality through Tier visits at the
home of her sister, Mrs. Lena Mix, al­
so her brother, J. C. Hurd, who will
learn of her passing with a deep feel­
ing of sadness. Mrs. Mix went to the
Willoughby home for the holidays,
not knowing the seriousness of her
sister’s condition, and remained to as­
sist with her care until the end. Fun­
eral services were held Friday after­
noon. Mrs. Mix is expected to return
to her home here Monday. Much
sympathy is extended to the bereaved
ones left to mourn.

"I move that when we adjourn' to­

Friday and that when we adjourn to­
morrow we stand adjourned until 8
p. m. Monday.’’
.
Probably not more than five times
during the past decade has such a
motion failed of passage. With the
result that the Michigan legislature to
all intents and purposes has operated
on a three day basis, the Friday morn­
ing and the Monday night sessions be­
ing purely perfunctory in character
and very often only a few more than
a quorum being present
When the week-end recess motion
was made last week, Rep. Callaghan
served notice that in the future he
will oppose such actions.
"The Governor has asked that we
complete our labors in 90 days,” Mr.
Callaghan said.
"We are informed
and informed correctly that it costs
the state of Michigan $1,00 for every
day we are in session. There is no
valid reason why we should not hold
five active sessions every week.
"Under our present system mem­
bers living within driving distance of
Lansing, go home Thursday night and
many of them do not return until
Tuesday.
This prevents conclusive
action on pending measures but also
prevents the various committees from
meeting and working on measures be­
fore them.
*T believe it is the intent of every
member to give the governor his full­
est cooperation and I intend in the fu­
ture to demand a roll call on every
effort to secure long week-end ad­
journments.”
There, however, may be some poli­
tical significance to the movement
when it is linked with the fact that
Republican members of the legislature
plan to oppose the "expense account”
request of Detroit Democrats.
For many years it has been under­
stood that the $3 a day which legis­
lators receive could not cover their
living expenses. True the $3 a day
is paid for. 365 days a year, but it ip
impossible for members of the House
and Senate to secure advances. For
that reason, it was for years under­
stood that only men of private means
could afford to come to Lansing as
members of the law-making body.
But the upheaval of 1932 brought
many so-called poor men into the
legislature. In 1933 they were comj-elled to scrimp in order to secure
"three squares a day.” Since the ses­
sion was called to order January 2
there has been an undercurrent of
comment to the effect that members
of the legislature should receive ex­
penses while in Lansing. During the
last few days proponents of the plan
have been frankly seeking pledges of
support to the movement before
making an overt bid for additional
stipends.
It so happens that most of those
backing the expense account plan are
Democrats. On many hands they are
receiving apparent Republican sup­
port, but the G. O. P. board of strat­
egy has decided that the plan will be
encouraged to the extent that the
plan will’be incorporated into a reso­
lution or bill with Democratic back­
ing. When that happens the Repub­
licans will line up solidly against the
measure and then claim credit for
stopping another Democratic raid on
the treasury.
Despite the fact" that most mem­
bers of the legislature—in fact prac­
tically every persons in Lansing—■.
professes to be sick and tired of talk
or recounts, the November election
again bobbed up in legislative sessions
last week.
And there is good reason to believe
that the present session of the legis­
lature will investigate—not the No­
vember election—but the recount
conducted by the “rump" special ses­
sion.
With noticeable abruptness last Fri­
day morning Lieut Gov. Read re­
cessed the Senate and announced that
there would be a caucus of the Re­
publican members.
A sergeant-atanns was stationed outside the door
of the committee room to keep news­
papermen and intruders beyond hear­
ing distance. Attorney General Har­
ry S. Toy attended the session, which
lasted about an hour and a half.
When the members filed out of the
room several announced that they
had been sworn to secrecy.
But
enough facts leaked out of the
mouths of various members to show
that an investigation of the recount
was the sole topic of conversation.
Such an investigation appears cer­
tain but whether the probe will take
the form of a legislative inquisition
or a grand jury remains to be dis­
closed, probably the latter.
Governor Fitzgerald continues to
keep many of the "faithful” who lab­
ored for his election on the anxious
seat regarding future positions which
are in his power to award. HU; office
is crowded with those who feel that
their services entitle them to lucraive appointive positions. At the same

Gray’s office, needless to say. Is the

The Governor and hia newly-con­
firmed prison commission, however,
have decided upon the wardens at
Michigan’s three major penal institu­
tions. The branch prison at Mar­
quette will have Walter F. Gries of

ward-looking educator.
In the lower peninsula Charles
Shean of Portland and Harry Jackson
of Grease Pointe exchanged places
they formerly held. Shean becomes
warden at Jackson prison while Harry
Jackson will direct the State Reform­
atory at Ionia.
Future busy sessions of the legis­
lature are predicted by the flood of
bills that fell into the legislative hop­
pers during the past week. Propos­
als covering most of the points
brought out by the Governor in his
message were introduced into either
the House or the Senate, but few bore
the stamp of administration approval.
Most of the bills were attempts by
members not close to the Governor to
steal his thunder by introducing mea­
sures akin to his ideas in the hope
that their name will adorn the mea­
sure when finally adopted.
Two or
three weeks will have to elapse before
those bills, definitely sponsored by the
administration, can be sorted from
the chaff.

Telephone statisticians have com­
pleted a survey of the use of tele­
phone and telegraph facilities
throughout the world. The survey
covers the year 1931, the latest pe­
riod for which comparable figures
are available.
This study shows that, next to the
United States, the country’ where
the greatest number of telephone
conversations takes place Is Japan.
Canada holds third place, Germany
fourth, and Great Britain and North­
ern Ireland fifth. The figures give
27,500,000,000 telephone conversa­
tions during 1931 for the United
States, 3,326448;000 for Japan, 2.565.­
641.000 for Canada, 2,376,000,000 for
Germany, and 1,590,000,000 for Great
Britain and Northern Ireland.
Next come France and Sweden,
with 847406,000 and 842,000,000 tele­

They are followed by Poland. Spain,
Denmark, Austria and The Nether­
lands.
During Che year. 185,000,000 tele­
grams were sent in the United
States. 51,142,000 in Japan, 47.312,­
000 in Great Britain and Northern
Ireland, and 33,510,000 in France.
Spain, Germany, Australia and -Can­
ada follow as regards the total num­
ber of telegrams, in the order named.
Telephone conversations in tha
United States averaged 223 per
capita. On a per capita basis, Canada,
outranks the United States in tele-,
phone conversations, and New Zea­
land is in third place, with Denmark
and Sweden following. On the same
basis. New Zealand leads in the use
of telegrams, with Australia second
and the United States third. Tele­
grams Include inland and also out­
going international messages, while
telephone conversations represent
completed local and toll or long dir
tance messages.

The afternoon of April 8 was much
the same as any afternoon to the
miners deep in the subterranean
caverns of the Sinclair mine near
Switz City, Ind. Work was going
along about as usual. Five miners
were busy digging and loading with
coal the little car whic^ "Prince,”
the mine pony, was to haul to the
Bhatt All seemed as usual when
suddenly from Thomas Barnett,
driver of the car, came the dreaded
cry, “Fire!"
Unless help came and came quick­
ly, death for all of them was only a
few hours away. All they could do
was close off the fire and the fumes
as best they could, and wait, and
hope.
Telephone Man Hurries to Mina
Meanwhile, above ground, frantic
rescue efforts were going forward.
The nearest telephone, however,
was located in a farmhouse a quar­
ter of a mile from the mine and It
took time to go that distance to
summon ambulances, fire-fighting
equipment and other help from near­
by towns.
It happened that Charles Tabby,
a plant man for the Indiana Bell
Talephusf' Company, was testing
toll Un*-" in the BloomfWd central
office. When the alaxm cwiae in. he
hurried to the scene. He found there

was no telephone in the vicinity of
the mine, but that the toll line be­
tween Vincennes and Indianapolis
passed directly in front of thtf mine
property. Climbing the nearest pole,
he picked up an idle circuit with his
toll line test sot and, from this pole,
talked to various towns in the west­
ern part of the state, in an effort to
locate the United States Mine Res­
cue Squad, mine inspectors and first
aid men.
Sent Many Important Messages
He continued his efforts to obtain
help, and help comprised not only
men, but materials such as lumber,
nails ard cloth to use to direct air
into the mine. By this time traffic
on the road had become so heavy
that it was necessary for him to
summon the sheriff of the county
and the state police.
During all this time, no report
bad been received as to whether
the entombed miners were stHi
alive. The rescue workers labc-ed
for stv: ml hours, when finally it be­
came known that the men were
alive. Word of thl* was at once
flashed to operators in Bloomfield
and Linton hy the volunteer tele­
phone worker at the mlaa. and also
to the Ltnton newspaper. After great
dlfucnKy, not only were Ute five
men brought up, but also tba posy.

Never heard of the Snapshot

has existed, without a name, for a
long time. You can spot Its mem­

which see striking pictures where
ordinary folks see nothing of inter­

impatience while they wait for the
delivery of a new batch of finished
films and prints.
Chances are. you’ve been a mem­

This is the first time we of the
Snapshot Guild, as such, have ever
attempted to gossip, in print, about
our mutual pleasures and problems.
Oh. yes. there are—and have been—
plenty of magazines and books and
scientific articles about photogra­

cerned with deep technicalities.

Disregarding, for the moment, the
influence of over- or under-exposure
(the new films take care of much of
that, anyway), it simmers down to a
matter of lighting, particularly the
angle and direction of the light.
It’s still a pretty good rule to shoot
with the sun over your shoulder,
but—for more striking results—try
working at angles, shooting across
the light.
For example, in the later after­
noon when, of course, light is com­
ing from the west, try aiming at your
subject from the north or south. In
this way you get strong lighting on
the side toward the sun plus definite
shadows on the other side.

Venezuela Gulf Oil company in Vene­
zuela the past year;

. Nov. 29. 1934.
Ciudad Bolivar. Venezuela.
Dear Folks:
Our Tres Matas camp, Guarico, is
now settling down fairly well and I
suppose the work will begin in anoth­
er day. The moving was a big job.
' I understand that there were about 23
hired trucks from Bolivar used be­
sides our 21 or 22. Dewoody, his ca­
ble truck, and shooter Servella and
Miller left ahead of me on the morn­
ing we moved. I had to clean dirty
spark plugs at Oficiana camp, and
find some phootgraphic supplies. It
was a long tride to Panaguan over
rough and sandy road, but the easiest
part of the trip.
A gasoline depot was established
for us at Pariguan and we found per­
haps a half dozen of the hired trucks,
including Charlie Chatterton, an Eng­
lish fellow, driving a four wheel drive
truck, property of Max Wulff’s fath­
er.
Dave Kirk, developer, bought
some sweet stuff from a street boy
after we registered with the Hebe Civ­
il (Mayor)). It tasted like ginger­
bread, but was more like candy and
must have contained much papelon.
West of Pariguan, a road had been

made by leveling off some hill Lops
and ditching and crowning the road,
but the wet season had left deep
1 holes, ruts and washes.
These hills were very steep, not
very high, but the road seemed to
have been specially built to go over
the tops of all of them. I forgot to
say that we left the Barren Lanos
east of Pariguan about five miles,
where the road goes down a long san­
dy hill into woods and hills. The hills
west of Pariguan fixed my truck so
that we had trouble later. My brakes
were no good and sometimes I didn't
get the truck in low enough gear go­
ing downhill and bounced so hard it
finished breaking a weak spring. The
springs originally on the truck were
meant for light loads traveling on
good roads. I guess we got to Santa
Meria Delpire at about five o’clock,
jnst behind Dewoody and the others.
Kranse had a gasoline depot on the
oast side of the town, but there were
only a few natives around so we kept
on and ran out of gas about 100 yards
farther and filled up from our spare
25 gal. drum. We started out the
west side on a road, but were uncer­
tain and while we waited, Dewoody's
wire truck came in from the west and
said they were all out about a mile on
the wrong road and were coming
back.
One of the wire truck peons
had been to Tres Matas with Snow
and knew we should turn south there.
We camped that night just about a
mile from town, our number Increased

the trucks were waiting for Snow to

had consisted of canned-stuff, and at

Ol’ Man Weather
Hands Out Tricks
Favored Un With All Kind. of Wenther And Travelling During
Past Week.

Well, as usual, the weather man
has handed us a full bag of tricks the
past week. We've had rain and fog,
sleet and snow, wind and thunder, icy
and muddy roads, below freezing and
thawing spells, some motor mishaps
and some downfalls, but very little of
injury or damage considering the con­
ditions. There was probably more
staying at home in the length of time
than for the same length of time in
some months.
Tire chains were
quite in demand. Between the wind
and sleet many limbs were broken
from trees, necessitating picking up
work by the village. The various hills
around about, that are just part of a
nice ride most of the time, made
travelling something of a hazard,
coming into and out of the valley and

Congestion In, The Treasury Depart­
ment Delays Final Payments In
County.

County Agent Harold J. Foster feels
all Corn-Hog contract signers will
have their complete payment before
tax time is over. Mr. Foster is look­
ing for the second payment of the
contract within the next two weeks.
Papers and forms on which the sec­
ond payment are based have been sent
from Mr. Foster’s office to Washing­
ton over six weeks ago so the pay­
ment should soon be along.
Papers
and forms on which the third and last
payment will be made left Mr. Fos­
ter’s office last week, so he feels all
payments due should certainly be
along by March 1st at the latest
Checks were recently received on
some late wheat contracts, and at
that time the government Indicated
that the contracts were ready and
passed for payment some time before
but payment was held up due to the
fact that the treasury department
could not write the checks as&gt;rt as
contracts were approved. This over­
working of the disbursement office
likely accounts for the hold-up in the

HOOD MONDAY EVE
About 70 In Attendance. Enjoy A
Fine Supper And An Interesting
Speaker.

After a year of Inactivity, the
Nashville Brotherhood has again come
to life and the initial meeting of the
winter season was held Monday even­
ing at the Evangelical church, with
about seventy men of the village and
surrounding community in attendance.
A thoroughly satisfying repast was
served at seven o'clock by the Evan­
gelical Ladies* Aid in the basement
dining hall, and the program follow­
ing was held in the church auditor­
ium.
Nelson Brumm, president of the or­
ganization two years ago, took
charge of the meeting, and it was
unanimously voted to reorganize and
resume the regular monthly meetings.
Election of officers resulted in the re­
election of Mr. Brumm as president;
Hallie Lathrop was chosen vice pres­
ident; Ed. Hafner secretary-treasur­
er; J. C. Fumiss, Floyd Nesbet and
George Parrott as executive board.
Roy G. Brumm thdn introduced the
speaker of the evening,’’^Stanley M.
Powell of Ionia, former legislator
and a widely read contributor to farm
magazines. Mr. Powell proved an
interesting talker, and gave his hear­
ers much material for sober medita­
tion. He prefaced his discourse w’ith
some rambling comments on affairs
and conditions conducive to worry,
such as the war clouds which appar­
ently hover over most nations of the
world, mal-distribution of wealth, the
widespread increase in crime and dis­
sipation. etc.
As his main theme, he discussed
what he termed "Pathways to Pow­
er," and delivered a real sermon on
this topic. First he listed the two
classes, the lust for power solely for
personal aggrandizement, and the de­
sire for power with an idea of service
to mankind. Second the psychologi­
cal phase, wherein the idea is con­
ceived in the mind, finally carried in­
to action, and the act, through repeti­
tion. forming an unconscious habit
Third, the Christian spirit pathway,
embodying tolerance and kindness in­
stead of hasty, unjust criticism.
Fourth, he called attention to the Bi­
ble and prayer as essential aids in the
pathway to success; and lastly, the
Christian service path, in which one
lends his aid and talents for the bet­
terment of one’s fellow-beings.

(By Frank D. Brown, Special Cor­
respondent)

The third week of the legislative
session, like the two preceding ones,
has contributed little or nothing to­
ward the speedy adjournment asked
for by the chief executive, albeit the
past several days have produced some
mighty startling disclosures that were
climaxed late last Thursday afternoon
by the fli-st arrest growing out of the
Detroit recount controversy.
Alhough some committee work is
being done in both houses, actual leg­
islation is at a complete standstill
and will be until the nine-man Senate
committee has completed its investi­
gation of the frauds and irregularities
alleged to have occurred in the re­
counts of Wayne county ballots cast
last November for secretary of state.
Senator Andrew L. Moore of Pontiac
(R), chairman of the Senate group,
has announced that the inquiry will'be
brought to a close Monday and a re­
port of the findings submitted at once
to the entire Senate. With the inves­
tigation disposed of it is expected
the coming week will see the legisla­
tive machine gradually gain momen­
tum with some tangible results accom­
plished before many morfe days have
elapsed.
Hearings before the committee,
which is composed of six Republicans
and three Democrats, began Wednes­
day morning.
Created for the pur­
pose of investigating the alleged
fraudulent acts of one of its own
members, Senator Anthony J. Wilkowski, the committee has been cloth­
ed with absolute authority to sub­
poena witnesses and impound such
evidence as poll books, tally sheets,
ballot boxes and ballots to assist in
sifting a multitude of charges and ar­
riving at the true facts of what really
happened on the fourth floor of the
Barium Tower in Detroit the last four
days in December.
Attorney General Harry S. Toy is
personally directing the presentation
of evidence before the committee. An
amazing story of outright fraud and
criminal manipulation has been un­
folded as each additional witness has
recited his version of the recount and
what took place behind the scenes
during those four days.
Witnesses, who were employed as
recount workers, have related that
they were Instructed to give the "long
count" to a certain candidate because
”1400 jobs depended upon it" A story
has been told by these workers of
how in their presence ballots were re­
marked to give Gen. Guy M. Wilson
votes for secretary of state that he
did not receive.
In other instances
w'bere it was impossible to so alter
ballots as to favor Wilson, the wit­
nesses have testified that the super­
visors of the recount resorted to mu­
tilation to prevent the ballot from be­
ing counted for anyone.
The charges contained in Attorney
General Toy’s message to the Senate,
prior to the appointment of the inves­
tigating committee, have been sub­
stantiated almost to the letter by tes­
timony that has been read into the
record. Toy’s allegations, in part,
read as follows:
"My investigation further discloses
that blue pencils were handed to a
large number of workers to be used to
mark ballots. These pencils were
about an inch to an inch and a half
long and could be concealed by the
hand of the person using same.
"Some of the workers were given
instructions as to the method of mark­
ing ballot for particular candidates.
They were instructed to throw out
ballots having distinguishing marks
on behalf of particular candidates and
to count the ballots having similar
marks on behalf of the opposing can­
didates for the same office.
"Some of the workers were also
instructed by those in charge to give
the ‘.long count” to a particular can­
didate and were told that it was ne­
cessary to pick up at least five thou­
sand (5,000) votes for him before
Monday morning.
"I have evidence in my possession
th^t these blue pencils were used by
.arious workers and that the vote for
a certain candidate was very mater­
ially increased as a result of the use
of such blue pencils. These pencils
ware used in different cases to obtain
the name result. In certain tnrtanoen
they were used by marking crown
before the name, of certain can&lt;Hdatee. by changing ntrelgbt ballot, to

Heart “Talks ”to Doctors; Electric
Stethoscope Amplifies 100 Times

Dr. E. W. Hollingsworth, cardiologist at the Veterans Administration
Hospital at Hines, III., Is shown “tuning in” on a patient's heart with a
new portable electric stethoscope, made by the Western Electric Com­
pany, which amplifies heart sounds 100 times and which also filters out
certain types of sound and emphasizes others.

An electrical stethoscope, based
on the telephone principle, with a
neart instead of a voice doing the
talking, has been placed in experi­
mental use recently. This small de­
vice enables a physician to magnify
the sound of the human heart 100
times and to "tune in” on the heart
sounds ho particularly wishes to
hear.
Developed for Deaf Doctor

It was originally developed by en­
gineers of the Western Electric
Company for a medical student
whose poor hearing prevented him
from using the ordinary stethoscope.
It was so successful in aiding him
that it aroused interest among phy• siclans, not only those having the
. same handicap but other's who are
called upon from time to time to
make examinations in noisy places.
The tuning device was found to as­
sist in difficult diagnoses by empha­
sizing faint heart sounds which
might be especially significant.
Equipment In Handy Size

cord to a tiny amplifier containing
two "peanut’’ tubes and two minia­
ture transformers. This amplifier
multiplies the original power 100
times, employing only four flashlight
cells for the filament of the two
tubes and two of the smallest size
dry batteries for their plates.
This current is delivered to a tele­
phone receiver which reproduces the
heart action in the form of greatly
magnltied sounds. A physician may
hold the receiver directly to his ear,
or may attach to it the tube of his
own stethoscope and thus listen In
the usual manner.
Three People Can Listen
“Tuning in" on certain heart
sounds is done through an electrical
filter. The thumping of the heart is
its loudest sound and also its deep­
est The "blowing" and “whistling”
of the heart, which in certain ail­
ments may be the more significant,
are much fainter and also much
higher in pitch. By throwing a
switch, the physician causea the fil­
ter to cut down on the low thump­
ing tones, and thus tunes in clearly
on the heart’s higher notes.
By plugging in extra receivers, as
many as three persons can listen at
the
same time. The rportable stetho_______________

Wholesale dismissals in the state
old age pension bureau were an­
nounced by Grover C. Dillman, wel­
fare director, following a survey re­
vealing that less than 30 per cent of
the revenue made available has been
spent for pensions. The balance was
expended largely for payrolls. Dill­
man said 100 employes, most of whom
were county investigators, will be
dropped. This will leave 75 county
investigators, receiving an average of
$125 a month. Dillman said the pen­
sion division has a $50,000 deficit Re­
ceipts from the head tax last week
were only $175, he stated. The divi­
sion has spent -391,092, of which $103­
098 was for pensions. The state has
received 43,000 applications but is
paying pensions to 3,500 aged persons.
The average pension is about X10.
Total revenues to date were $340,618.
Several bills are pending before the
-legislature proposing to abolish the
head tax and obtain money for old
age pensions from other sources.

HOMEMAKER’S CORNER.
(By Home Economics Specialists,
Michigan-State College.)
With the abundance of color found
in the furnishings for the modem
house, he result will either be color
“schemes" or color "screams.” The
amount of intelligence used in selec­
tion, will determine the matter ac­
cording to the related arts instruc­
tors at Michigan State college.
Learning he effect colors have upon
one another is the only way to devel­
op judgment in regard to their selec­
tion. Balance, or a feeling of res­
ponse, is the principle underlying the
most important color law called the
“law of areas." The subsance of this
law is that the larger areas should be
either dark or dull (grayed) and the
smaller areas light and bright (in­
tense). As areas grow smaller they
may become more intense and thus
give contrast in size of areas as well
as intensity. The secret of good col­
or harmony is "balance and con­
trast."
Equal amounts or equal intensities
of complementary colors will prove
monotonous. For example a room
furnished In tans and brown, with
some dull orange areas would be very
monotonous for the tones would all be
warm. If a contrast of some oppo­
site color, blue, purple-blue, or blue­
green in the form of pottery, pillows,
candles, or upholstery on a chair, the
room would be much more satisfying.
Complementary colors, when used to­
gether, produce such strong contrasts
that only a small touch of a bright
opposite color is needed to give bal­
ance.
Balance can also be obtained by re­
peating some of the same colors or
values, in various parts of a scheme.,
A room with walls and woodwork of
warm gray and walnut furniture will
appear balanced if rose drapers are
used at the windows on one side of
the room and some rose accessories
in the other areas which have no
windows.
. Emphasis is another important
point in handling color. In any color
arrangement there should be one out­
standing color effect whether the
scheme is very quiet and simple, or
complicated. Keep the floors and
walls quiet and subdued for they are
the backgrounds for the furniture and
the people who live in them.
Color combinations which give
pleasure are those which show har­
mony or unity.
They give the im­
pression that all the colors really be­
long together and yet at the same
time there is sufficient variety so that
the arrangement does not become
monotonous. The most beautiful col­
or schemes arc those which give a
single impression, and impression of
warmth with a note of coolness for
variation, or of coolness with its ac­
cent of warmth.

Attorney General Harry S. Toy rul­
ed that the state administrative board
has no authority to Ioan money to dis­
tressed school districts. The ruling
serves to increase the anxiety over
Calhoun’s country schools, three of
which have noticed the county school
commissioner* that they will have to
close within a few weeks if aid is not
forthcoming, and of which more than
half probably will not be able to com­
plete a nine-month school year. The
state emergency administrative board
some time ago appropriated $50,000
to assist distressed districts. Paul F.
Voelker, superintendent of public in­
struction, had requested an addition­
al fund of $200,000.
The attorney
general held that the administrative
board may pot set up a loan fund.

Gov. Gen. Frank Murphy, former
mayor of Detroit, will remain at his
post, and when Philippine independ­

American representative in the is­
lands, it was said at the White House.
The governor is going to Washington

Anyone looking for a good chance
to relax and forget some of the com­
mon varieties of troubles should visit
Michigan State college, • Farmers
Week, Jan. 23 to Feb. 1, and spendfive days enjoying the entertainment
features provided to lighten the
week’s program.
Visitors might start with the ex­
hibit in the Physics Building where an
x-ray machine permits a person to
watch his companion's heart beat.
This is'just a precaution to see if the
machinery is in tip-top form to with­
stand the ensuing excitement.
The
engineering division will put on* its
annual exhibit of white magic where
the latest developments in electrical
and other phenomena seem to flout all
natural laws. The chemistry section
also does some scientific tricks and
then explains them in a series of lec­
tures.
Those whose tastes prefer the arts
can view the exhibit of drawings and
paintings in the Library. Engineering
Hall, and the Union Building. Band
concerts are given at the afternoon
and evening programs and the col­
lege men’s glee chib sings several
numbers at one session.. Finalists in
the rural drama contest will be pre­
senting their plays in competition for
the major awards. The Grange choir
singing contest will be held on Friday.
Hardy men from back of beyond
will get a thrill out of the coon hunt
which is a part of the Thursday ev­
ening stunts. One good feature of
this hunt is that it can be seen and
heard from a good seat instead of
floundering around in a swamp on a
dark night A quartette of members
of the extension staff of the college
takes the place of the coon hounds on
Wednesday night.
Those familiar
with both say they can hardly be told
apart in the dark.
Livestock of all the better classes
will be shown in the big parade which
*is headed by a pair of Arabian hors­
es. A troupe of trained collies will
put on a show directed by their own­
er, Luke Pasco. College cavalry stu­
dents stage a tug-of-war while
mounted on horse-back and if the sur­
vivors are numerous enough another
act will be given.
Paul Bunyan’s
descendants will be out both Wednes­
day and Thursday evenings to display
skill in chopping and sawing.
A bonepulling contest will be held
both Wednesday and Thursday nights.
Both lightweight and heavyweight
teams will pit their lugging power
against the weights on the dynamo­
meter. Some of the best teams jn the
country will be shown in action.
The banquet and luncheon pro­
grams during the week include enter­
tainment features as well as the more
sedate business angles.
The toast­
masters are supposed to have located
a few new anecdotes which Have not
been told on the radio for at least a
week preceding the banquet. No toast­
master can guarantee mere nowadays.
Most all visitors will enjoy the var­
ious shows held during the week. Fine
displays of livestock, poultry, fruits,
potatoes, grains, and seeds will be on
exhibit every day.

can be obtained by writing the Direc­

of card playing, with a nice lunch at

The railroads are not only sellers of
transportation; they are billion-dollar
buyers of equipment and supplies.
In 1929, their, purchases meant jobs
for 2,000,00b workers.
Today the railroads are not buying.
Their revenues have been so cur­
tailed by unfair, unregulated compe­
tition that their buying power is
sharply restricted.

The railroads want to buy. They will
buy when and if their purchasing
power is restored.
To increase railway purchases railway
earnings must be increased.

Legislative fair play for the railways
will mean railway recovery.
Railway recovery will mean increased
railway buying and jobs, again, for
millions,

Our State Legislature and National
Congress, now convened, should
eliminate the unfairness in the com­
petition between the railways and
other agencies of transportation.

Mrs. Sylvester Hynes, well known
rural resident, residing on M-14 onehalf mile north of the Shores school
house, was taken to Pennock hospi­
tal. Hastings, Sunday night tn the
Hess ambulance, seriously burned
about chest, arms and head.
First
aid had been rendered by Dr. Stewart
Lofdahl before her removal to the
hospital.
Mrs. Hynes’ kerosene lamp was not
giivng a very good light, and she
trimmed the wick a little, some of
the trimmings dropping to the table
and igniting the papers and table­
cloth thereon, and then as she, alone
in the house, endeavored to extin­
guish the blaze, her bathrobe caught
fire and when her husband entered
the house with a pail of water, he
found her in flames, and dashed the
pall of water over her.
Suffering a stroke possibly 12 years
ago, she had since not had the same
free use of her body, being difficult
for her to get about, and one of her
hands is so crippled that she has lit­
tle or no use of it
Otherwise she
probably would have had no trouble
putting out the fire.
The flames had burned her clothing
from the upper part of her body and
burned the body beneath, particularly
so over the stomach, her arms and
face, and Mr. Hynes was alone with
her. and no telephone.
Providentially the Swift brothers
stopped at the farm home to see their
son, who was absent, and they hur­
ried to the home of Mrs. Sam Hefflebower, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Hynes, west of Wamerville, to ap­
prise them of the situation. Mr. Hefflebower at once called Dr. Lofdahl,
who reached the Hynes home in a
very short time, and, as stated pre­
viously, administered first aid and
had her taken to Pennock hospital
where her condition, when the bums
were dressed, seemed very serious.
Mrs. Hynes is nearly seventy years
of age and this, coupled with the
previous stroke and her crippled con­
dition, adds to the seriousness of the
case. She has reared seven children,
and in the line of her housewife’s du­
ty cares for her home with the as­
sistance of her husband and son, liv­
ing at home.
Her friends, of whom she has many,
are full of sympathy, and hope the
case may not be as serious as it
seemed at first.

nurse him through four years af adult
life?
If the average young man or wo­
man who graduates from a twelve
year educational program isn’t fitted
for his or her struggle with life then
it would seem that educational sys­
tems are open to Improvement It is
true that we cannot have doctors,
lawyers and other professional men
unless study other than that gained in
high school is obtained, but twelve
years of education should make the
average person ready to take up the
vocation he desires.
There is no real reason why a state
should not curtail its expenses for
higher education, not by discriminat­
ing against the poor, but by giving a
premium for ambition and intelligence
through harder entrance requirements.
After all, only the Intelligent and am­
bitious really benefit from a college
training. The others merely waste
their own and the taxpayers’ money.

students of world af­
fairs who hold that
the depression was due solely to the
World war will find much ammunition
for use in the annual message of the
King of Sweden to the Swedish parliamer.L
King Gustaf reported that the bud­
get had been balanced without the
imposition of new taxes or the float­
ing of public loans. Furthermore, the
public debt amounting to (590,000,000
incurred largely by the creation of a
public works program three years ago,
was reduced by (10,000,000 during the
year.
The king asked for smaller appro­
priations for relief, because unemploy­
ment is disappearing, the total now
being but a fraction more than one
per cent of the country’s population.
Sweden makes this golden financial
record without the aid of such things
as the NRA, the AAA or other mem­
bers of Washington’s alphabetical
family of bureaus.
That, however, is not to be taken as
a discredit to Washington’s bureaus.
Sweden was one of the few naWons
which stayed out of the World war.
It is now reaping the fruits of its
restraint and wisdom and these fruits
it should be noted, are much sweeter
than were the spoils which were
claimed at the close of the World war
by those nations referred to as the
“victors.”—Battle Creek Enquirer.

Although not wholly justi­
fied, there is enough truth in
the following verse, contributed to The Springfield Union, to
cause people to cast a searching
glance toward the Democratic party’s
leadership in high places. The verse
is titled "The 1935 Psalm” and goeth:
The politician is my shepherd:
I am in want.
He maketh me to lie down on park
benches;
He leadeth me beside the still fac­
tories;
He disturbeth my soul.
He leadeth me in the paths of destruc­
tion for the party’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the
valley of the shadow of depression,
I anticipate no recovery, for he is
with me.
His policies and his diplomacies, they
frighten me.
He prepareth a reduction in my sal­
ary. and in the presence of my en­
emies.
He annointeth my small income with
taxes; my expenses runneth over.
Surely unemployment and poverty
shall follow me all the days of my
life.
And I shall dwell in a mortgaged
house, forever.

Governor Fitzgerald has ordered
statewide prohibition of slot machines.
He directed Oscar G. Olander, com­
missioner of public safety, to enforce
the law which prohibits the operation
of gambling devices. The governor's
action followed a recent warning is­
sued jointly by him and Atty. Harry
S. Toy that unless local enforcing ag­
encies enforce the anti-gambling sta­
tutes the state will acL Since that
warning notorious gambling places in
Macomb county have closed and slot
machines have been removed in cer­
tain localities. The governor’s in­
struction to Olander was a blanket or­
der to “clean up the rest of the state.”
Rumors have abounded in state cir­
cles that slot machines, said to be
highly profitable to their operators
were controlled by those claiming to
have political influence.
Fitzgerald
declared he wants gambling stopped
so effectively there may be no hint
of suspicion.
, Ten employees of the state racing
commission in Detroit were minm?
their jobs, the first victims of the
priming knife wielded by Joseph C.
Frost, the new racing commissioner.
The dismissal of the ten men was ap­
proved by Governor Fitzgerald during
a conference with Froet in which the
latter declared .that the commission
payroll was topheavy with employees.

TELEPHONE CO

YOU "GO PLACES"
WITH A TELEPHONE
The convemcni way to arrange parties and other
good times today is by telephone. It’s easier . • .
quicker . . . and more satisfactory, because
answers can be had and plans completed without
delay. Those who can. be called easily arc in­
cluded in such good times more often than those
who have no telephones.
A telephone offers more than social advantages,
however. It enables one to order supplies and
“run” errands without leaving the house.
Business associates can call “after hours.” And,
when emergencies occur, aid can be summoned
instantly by telephone.
The cost of having a telephone in your home
only a few cents a day • • • probably is but little
more than the amount the average family
spends in using public pay tele­
phones. For complete information
about telephone service, call, write
or visit the Telephone Business Office.

The greatest strain of the farm
debt refinancing program bu passed,
W. Forbes Morgan, Deputy Governor,
declared at a conference of comptrol­
lers of the Farm Credit Administra­
tion and chief accountants of the
Federal land banks.
"More than one and one-half billion dollars of federal land bank
land bank commissioner’s loans and
improved agricultural conditions
largely responsible for lifting the
pressure of farm indebtedness,”
Morgan said.
"Over the country as a whole some
600,000 mortgage loans have been
made since the. farm debt refinancing
program was launched in May, 1933.
Starting from scratch the land banks
built up a force which at one time
was closing more than $153,000,000 of
loans a month. Loans are now being
made at the rate of about $75,000,000
per month.
"Nearly nine-tenths of the money
borrowed from the land banks and
the commlssionei have been used by
farmers to refinance their debts. In
connection with their loans farmers
have obtained scale-downs of their in­
debtedness totaling approximately
$75,OOO,uOO so far. Scale-downs oc­
curred to the case of about one out of
every six loans.
"The saving in interest to farmers
resulting from the land bank and
commissioner’s loans, including both
a temporary reduction, effective on
new and outstanding land bank loans,
and the saving effected as a result of
refinancing, amounts to about $33­
000,000 a year.
"As a result, hundreds of thousands
of farmers not only find themselves
relieved of the pressure of distress
debt, but have had their indebtedness
refinanced into debts which may be
repaid in the semi-annual and annual
installments. Farmers now have an
opportunity to work out of debt grad­
ually and systematically.
"The future looks better than per­
haps at any time to 20 years. In the
last two decades the war inflated all
agricultural values and encouraged
the contracting of indebtedness by
farmers at the high values.
Then
came the drastic liquidation of 1920­
21, and finally, the last depression.
The outlook is for greater stability in
the farm credit field than has been
visible in some time.
"Land values have begun to rise,
after about 13 years of continuous
decline. They are now so low that
the rise is healthy, and at the present
time there is nothing on the horizon
promising further kiting of values to
abnormal levels. Income from farm­
ing has risen sharply from the low
point of the depression, farm com­
modity prices being slightly above
the normal for the pre-war period.
"Along with this Improvement and
the large amount of refinancing, ap­
plications for loans have dropped to
about a fourth of the peak number,
while appeals for emergency refinanc­
ing assistance have declined to less
than 60 a day from the peak number
of around 700 a day.
"Production credit associations and
the banks for cooperatives are work­
ing well They offer broad possibili­
ties for service to farmers and in­
vestors.
"From their organization to the
end of 1934, production credit asso­
ciations made over $110,000,000 of
credit available on a cooperative bas­
is, and the banks for cooperatives
loned about $57,000,000. The activi­
ties of the latter banks were of use to
over 800 cooperative organizations.
Production credit associations loaned
to about 125,000 farmers.”

G PENSION
WERE NOW IN FORCE
Our little town is booming now,
You wouldn’t know the place.
We're up-to-date and full of pep.
A smile on every face.
And all because the Townsend plan
For pensioning the old
Is in effect, and brings to us
A happiness untold.
Old Grandpa Brown has bought the |
specs
He needed long ago;
And grandma has a coat and hat
She’s not ashamed to show.
And these old folks are going to rent
A cozy little place.
So they no longer need to live
With John or Jim or Grace.
Mr. Jones has bought a car;
His ol&lt;( one was a fright;
And Mrs. Reed now has a bed
That helps her rest at night.
Old Mrs. Grant has bought the dress
Her soul has craved for years;
She’s dressed up all the children, too,
And grandchildren—the dears!
Dear Granny Todd was to the way—
She couldn’t help but know—
For Son had many mouths to feed.
And money very slow.
His wife, care-worn, and nerves on
edge.
Had tried to do her beet;
But now dear Granny pays her board
And that helps all the rest
The Bocks are going to travel. They
Have never left this state;
They worked too hard and were too
•
poor;
Tm glad it’s not too late.
And when you add to these I’ve nam­
Oh, many, many more.
You’ll understand why trade picks up
In every shop and store.
The grocery stores have worlds to do;
They had to hire new clerks;
And some past sivxty have retired;
You see how fine it works.
The young men raise their heads
again;
They live by honest work.
There is no dole, no welfare, so
It wouldn’t pay to shirk.
Jim Smith has gone to college, for
His dad's now doing fine.
Yes, he s our local dentist, and
There’s business in that line.
Now Johnny Burke and Lillie Mead
At last are going to wed;
For John is selling lots of cars;
He’s bought a home, ’tis said.
The children now eat what they need,
Instead of cheaper food.
You ought to see the change it’s made
In Bin Jenks* little brood!
The schools are properly equipped;
The teachers get their pay;
At last our Youth will have a chance
To make life what they may.
The stores and houses wear new
.
paint;
The churches get their due;
The farms about, all look ship-shane;
The stock looks better, too.
And so it goes, right down the line,
New cars, new clothes, new trips!
You'd think the town had been the
Of countless Treasure Ships.
Less crime is there abroad today;
The strain of years is o’er; .
Fcr folks have work that pays them
well,
And men don't ask for more.
Now, this long tale about our town
Is true of all the rest;
There’s peace and plenty through the
land;
With happiness we’re blest

"Soul" Is the subject of the Lesson­
Sermon in all Christian Science chur­
ches throughout the world on Sunday,
February 17.
Among the Bible citations is this
passage (Job 23:10, 13): "But he
knoweth the way that I take: when
he hath tried me, I shall come forth
as gold. But he is in one mind, and
who can turn him?
and what his
soul desireth, event that he doeth.”
Correlative passages to be read
from the Christian Science textbook,
“Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures,” by Mary Baker Eddy, in­
clude the following (p. 335): "Because
Soul is Immortal, it does not exist in
mortality. Soul must be incorporeal
to be Spirit, for Spirit is not finite.
Only by losing the false sense of Soul
can we gain the eternal unfolding of
Life as Immortality brought to light"

Accoiding to Murray D. VanWagoner, our state highway commissioner,
our M-14 highway work, about which
there has been so much speculation, is
now assured, most welcome news to
the people of this community, both
from the local prospects for employ­
ment, and the value of the project it­
self, which with the fine new bridge of
last year and the rerouting now to
avoid the dangerous turn at Standpipe
Comers, will make a valuable and per­
manent improvement for the village
of Nashville, the more so because we
are to have pavement.
The state highway department is
now ready to receive blds for the im­
provement, and on another page of
this issue you will note the legal nottice, requesting proposals from pre­
qualified contractors for the work.
Bids will be opened at the Lansing of­
fice on March 1 and a contract award
will be authorized as soon as possible
thereafter if a satisfactory low bid is
received.
Mr. VanWagoner states
that it is expected that it will be pos­
sible to complete the work on or be­
fore July 15.
And now something about what is
to be done, and we quote now from
Mr. VanWagoner's letter to The
News: "The proposed work begins at
the north end of your present brick
pavement and extends north across
the new bridge to the north village
limits. Between the brick pavement
and th? turn nbrth of the Water
Works Park, we will construct a 42foot concrete pavement with curb and
gutter.
"North of this point the road will
be re-located for a short distance so
as to eliminate the very dangerous
turn at the standpipe. About 1000
feet north of this comer the pave­
ment will connect with and follow the
existing road to the north village lim­
its. The pavement width north of the
Water Works Park will be 20 fee. All
the above described work will be fin­
anced with federal funds and without
cost to the village or property own-

Mr. and Mrs. Charles Diamante
gave a colorful betrothal party, after
the Italian custom, Sunday at Veter­
ans Hall in Lansing, for their lovely
daughter, Mary Diamante, whose en­
gagement to Peter Caruso of Fremont
was thus announced to some 200 rela­
tives and friends of the Diamante and
Caruso families. An elaborate 1
o'clock dinner was served in fine style
at long tables, and later Miss Esther
Mastrovlte sang three lovely songs in
Italian, while an Italian orchestra
from Lansing furnished a nice pro­
gram for both Italian and American
dances. And at 5 o’clock ice cream
and cake were served with due cere­
mony. The cake was a beautiful con­
fection, of six graduated tiers, the
bottom layer probably as large or
larger than the usual confectionery
table, and decorated in pink and
white roses. No hint was given there
as to the wedding date, but with Lent
so near at hand, the wedding would
naturally be an after Easter event.
Miss Diamante is a graduate of
Nashville high school, and popular
with the young people, and Mr. Car­
uso is engaged In the confectionery
business at Fremont. The friendship
of the families dates back to earlier
living in Italy, Mrs. Diamante and Mr.
Caruso's father coming to America at
(the same time. Guests were present
from Lansing, Pontiac, Dowagiac.
Fowlerville, Owosso, Fremont, Lake

family from Nashville. Miss Georgia
Gribbin and William Kleinhans were
present for a short time, and Mr. and

WHEN’S AN AUTOMOBILE A
SNOWMOBILE? IN WINTER

Think of the wife of an operator of
a gasoline station using a “snowmo­
bile.” Well, it wasn't so bad at that
anu anyway the snow wasn’t used in
competition with gasoline, but just to
conserve it, and save the car from
fire.
Mrs. Max Miller had driven
out to Thornapple lake and was back­
ing up to turn around, when a blaze
started from alcohol running from a
broken hose from the heater, onto the
hot motor. She turned off the igni­
tion, climbed out, opened the hood
and threw on snow, which made the
fire one of past history.

A Correction.

Barry, Calhoun. Branch, Hillsdale,
Kalamazoo and St Jooeph countie*
were represented at the Battle Creek
regional meeting called for Thursday
afternoon by the state planning com­
mission. Nashville men there were
Menno Wenger, president of the
school board, and W. D. Wallace, sup­
erintendent of schools.
The main purpose of the meeting
was to encourage public officials to
make haste in submitting every con­
ceivable public works project in their
home communities to the planning
commission, which will co-ordinate
the requests into one statewide pro­
gram for submission to the federal
government
More than 200 county and munici­
pal officials gathered at the City Hall
in the ‘’Food City" and were told to
speedily complete their inventories of
possible public works projects.
The meeting was for the purpose of
acquainting county and municipal of­
ficials with the new $4,880 000,000
federal public works program, and
what types of projects would be\qgnsidered.
Definite projects were not
submitted at the meeting as all appli­
cations are to be made by mail. The
representative of the planning com­
mission was H. C. McClure. He said,
"It is the hope of the commission to
have a total of $1,500,000,000 in pub­
lic works projects to submit to Wash­
ington March 1. We cannot expect to
get such an amount, but we do feel
that Michigan should receive $250.­
000,000 to $325,000,000.
“Michigan's principal problem” be
said, “now seems to be one of obtain­
ing necessary legislation to remove
present legal obstacles which in the
past have prevented this state from
getting its fair share of national re­
lief funds.”
Mr. McClure said that projects com­
bining public interest and private
business should be considered for sub­
mission and that the type of projects
be fitted to the type of unemploy­
ment which it is hoped to absorb in.
each community. Jobs must be found
for the “white collar” worker as well
as the common laborer, he said.

A bulk tank made its appearance

Pennsylvania oils and greases, binder
twine and plow points.
The gas for the present will be

the officers have a half interest in a

pany as a whole, not of one unit.

�The 1

Senate that Its inquiry of the legisla­
tive recount revealed "a gigantic
fraud waa perpetrated on the voters
of Michigan. The committee, in its
report to the Senate, reached these
conclusions: 1 — That because of
wrongful acts perpetrated by recount
officials Maj. Gen. Guy M Wilson se­
cured a 18.000 vote lead “purely by
fraudulent tampering, marking and
spoilage of ballots, and padding tally
sheets.” 2—That the testimony re­
veals that Sen. Anthony J. Wilkowski “either did have knowledge of the
wrongful acts or grossly neglected
his assumed duties as chairman in
failing to discover these acts.” It was
further recommended “that unless
criminal proceeding are promptly in­
stituted
and the proper parties
brought before the bar of Justice to
answer for their acts of misconduct

Barry's relief case load in January
reached its highest point with 826
families as compared with 783 in
December. Expenditures in January
were $17,695; December $17,000.
Two projects are in progress at the
present time, both on brush cutting
on the highways. One of the pro­
jects, which employs 33 men, is work
furnished through the county road
commission. A resolution was passed
at the October session of the Barry
county board of supervisors to the ef­
fect that ?10,000 of the road commis­
sion fund be set aside to employ em­

Another pro­

The Hastings office has been busy
recently with the occupational classi­

LANSING
(By Frank D. Brown, Special Cor­
respondent)
Rumblings of another legislative in­
vestigation were heard in the House
this week where Rep. Martin Bagin­
ski. Detroit Democrat, sponsors a res­
olution calling for an inquiry into the
charges that the druggists are en­
deavoring to get a "comer" on the li­
quor business in this state. Gov.
Fitzgerald’s proposal to reduce the
number of state liquor stores causes
Baginski to intimate the possibility
of collusion existing to discriminate
against other classes of merchants
who would like to get a share o* the
profits accruing from the traffic.
.
Experience of the “old days" has
proven legalized liquor to be a very
delicate problem with any state ad­
ministration. After an absence of 15
years, the old bugaboo seems to have
returned Ln the form of Jfiany of the
evils of the pre-prohibitiQn era; evils
which, if not promptly cu-Uxed, may
jeopardize the Michigan dispensary
system. Judge McDonald, chairman
of the liquor control commission, de­
clared a few days ago that the brew­
ing industry has fallen prey to the
racketeers and that licenses have be­
come a commodity of cash value to
certain individuals. An investigation
of this phase of the situation is to be
launched shortly. The results may'ttb
surprising.
The Senate insurgents, mentioned in
this column a week ago, had their
baptism of fire early this week. The
first test of their strength since the
committee on executive business was
reorganized came when the name of
Ed. A. Nowack was offered for con­
firmation as a member of the public
trust commission. The final decision
was in favor of the appointee but the
"revolting" Senators as a formidable
gesture decreed that the appointment
should be held up for a time to allow
the gathering of certain pertinent In­
formation relative to the subject.
Nowack is he publisher of a Lans­
ing weekly newspaper and is one of
the better known figures in things po­
litical around Lansing. His selection
for the trust commission by the gov­
ernor came about because of his ac­
tivity of the past few years in ex­
pressing through his editorial columns
his dissatisfaction with the manner in
which defaulted bond issues have been
handled by the state.
From Washington has come a batch
of bills bearing the endorsement of
Harold L. Ickes, federal emergency
administrator, which are designed to
greatly enlarge the power of munici­
palities to issue bonds for public
works projects. They would author­
ize local governing agencies to ap­
prove borrowing without limit and
without a vote of the people.
The bills have been sent by Gov.
Fitzgerald to the legislature for in­
troduction but at present rest in the
of Speaker George
top drawer
The question of
Schroeder’s desk,
constitutionality has been raised and
the bills are to be overhauled before
they are released. Ab they now are
written there is dragged back before
the eyes of Michigan taxpayers the
ghost of Gov. Comstock’s famous “in­
surrection bond” issue.
Michigan's
constitution demands that the people
shall bq consulted before any promis­
cuous borrowing of money is indulged
in—these bills disregard that man­
date.
•
The question puzzling state officials
is that of whether Michigan would be
deprived of full participation in the
federal public works program in ev­
ent the legislature fails to enact these
measures or the state supreme court
refuses to concur in their validity.
Speaker Schroeder has formally
entered the criss-cross controversy in­
volving the pending action on propos­
als to abolish the state crime commision and the legislative council
which many members of the House
and Senate regard as a mighty valable adjunct to the legislature. As a
retaliatory move, a concerted effort is
being made, especially among the
Democratic members of the House, to
abolish the crime commission, the re­
tention of which is most acceptable
to the governor.

work already done, is a ‘•prime

on belief of enmity . The methods
employed in dealing with enemies
have been characterized by hatred
and fear; and although such ways and
means have never proved an adequate
defense, mankind at this hour is re­
luctant to obey and practice Jesus’
counsel, "Love your enemies.”
The Discoverer and Founder of
Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy,
has written on page 10 of her work,
"Miscellaneous Writings"; "We have
no enemies. Whatever envy, hatred,
revenge—the most remorseless mo­
tives that govern mortal mind—
whatever these try to do. shall *work
together for good to them that love
God*." And she answers the ques­
tion "Why?" by saying, “Because He
has called His own, armed them,
equipped them, and furnished them
defenses Impregnable."
Spiritual armament is found in
obedient to our Mwter'e counsel to
Ibve. In Christian Science, Love is a
synonym for God, and is therefore
Spirit Consequently, it is not asso­
ciated with materiality, human
changeableness, or material affec­
tions. Divine Love is impartial, uni­
versal, and unerring. The statement
in the first chapter of Genesis that
man is made in the image and like­
ness of God is foundational in the
teaching of Christian Science. Hence
the real man is the reflection of di­
vine Love. This reflection is seen in
brotherly kindness, charitableness,
tolerance, forgiveness; and the under­
standing and demonstration of real
being is our spiritual armament.
How docs the understanding of God
as divine Love and of man as His
image and likeness help one to over­
come the sense of enmity
If one is
faithful to his understanding of di­
vine Love, God, his thought is lifted
above the experience of enmity in
which he may appear to be enmeshed.
Experiences of enmity in which per­
sons seem arraigned against one an­
other are fewer and less poignant as
one consciously advances In the un­
derstanding of spiritual being, and as
the great peacemaking truth that en­
mity is unreal becomes clearer. Num­
bers and musical notes always main­
tain their order and harmony because
they express the law which governs
them. As mankind learns to under­
stand and make practical in its exper­
ience the divine Principle which, ac­
cording to Christian Science, is God,
it will no longer entertain false be­
liefs of hate, enmity, envy, strife, dis­
sensions, and so forth; and then ma­
terial armaments will become un­
known.
Some think that a millenial state
is impracticable, and only an ideal
dream of philosophers. Such should
remember the prophets of the Old
Testament who. in times of national
distress, called the people to repent­
ance and true worship of God as the
way to peace, harmony and prosper­
ity. Christian Science makes clear
that it is only ignorance or a misun­
derstanding of God, divine Principle,
Love, which causes and is responsible
for all discord. When men learn to
put Into practice even a little under­
standing of this Science, they become
more harmonious, more tolerant,
more forgiving and loving; they util­
ize spiritual armament When, there­
fore, this Science is more universally
understood and practiced, greater har­
mony, peace, and prosperity will re­
sult Are not these desirable quali­
ties what every nation desires and
seeks to maintain and protect?
Unlike the material armament, as
Mrs. Eddy says (The First Church of
Christ, Scientist, and Miscellany, p.
127), "Ours is not costly as men
count cost, but it is rich beyond price,
staunch and indestructible on land or
sea; it is not curtailed in peace, sur­
rendered in conquest, nor laid down
at the feet of progress through the
hands of omnipotence. And why Be­
cause it is on earth peace, good will
toward men,—a cover and a defence
adapted to all men. all nations, all
times, climes, and races.”—Christian

The supreme court upheld the gov­
ernment's right
to cancel “gold
clauses" in private bonds but ruled
that government gold obligations can
not be paid off on a "dollar for dol­
lar" basis. Chief Justice Hughes, in
a summarization of the decisions, dis­
closed the court’s ruling that govern­
ment "gold clause" bonds must be
paid off in gold or the equivalent
amount of devalued currency. This,
in effect, means that for every *1,000
gold bond, the government must pay
*1,690. What the administration atti­
tude would be remained to be seen. It
had already been declared by Attor­
ney General Cummings to be ready
"for any emergency." The govern­
ment won the solitary case involving
gold certificates. The decision was
that the court of claims did not have
jurisdiction to entertain suits against
the federal government because of its
gold bonds and gold certificates.
By far the largest budget for na­
tional defense since 1921 was fore­
shadowed with the House debut of a
war department appropriation bill
carrying *318.131,482 for military ac­
tivities alone. The navy supply bill is
yet to be reported to the House but
members of the appropriations com­
mittee said the 1936 figure for the
military services would exceed by ap­
proximately *100,000,000 any defense
fund since the Washington naval con­
ference.

Orville E. Atwood, Republican, was
secure in his position as Secretary of
State on the strength of an opinion
by the Michigan supreme court. In a
vigorously worded opinion, signed by
all members of the court save one,
the petition of Maj. Gen. Guy M. Wil­
son, Flint Democrat, for permission
to institute ouster proceedings against
Atwood was denied, Wilson's contention that the Democratic rump
session of the special session of the
special legislature la.it December had
authority to certify lim as the win­
ner of the election was thrown out by
the court. ‘There wns no joint con­
vention,’’ the opinion said. The con­
duct of the legislators in the closing
hours of the special session was char­
acterized as a "complete abnegation
of the principle of rule by the major­
ity which is a fundamental concept of
all Democratic and Republican gov­

Michigan State College.
During recent years, there has beea
so much talk about vitamins in gen- .
oral that many people think there has
been a lot of smoke for a little fire. .
Nevertheless,.vitamins are absolutely ,
necessary to human existence.
.
Vitamin A is among those neceseaiy
for life and good health. Recent stndies indicate that a grown person
needs about one unit of vitamin A for .
each calorie of food that he eats Thus
.if he needs 2500 calories, he should*
have 2500 units of vitamin A. Since •
the vitamin promotes growth, a child
needs two units for each calorie of
food consumed.
Does the ordinary diet contain that
many units The home economics nu­
trition specialist at Michigan State
college say that it does if the proper
food is selected. For example, over
2500 units of. vitamin A can be ob­
tained from the following foods—ap­
proximately 1000 units from a pint of
whole milk, about 1000 units from a
good sized serving of carrots, spinach,
or greens of any kind, 800 units from
one egg, and 100 units from one tea­
spoon of butter.
In order to increase the units in the
diet, the amount of butter, cream, and
eggs may be increased.
Cheese or
liver may be added. These foods are
good sources because the vitamin it­
self does not dissolve in water, only
in fat Colored fruits and vegetables,
however, contain a plant pigment, ■
carotene, which is changed, after It
Is eaten, into vitamin A. Therefore,
additional units may be secured from
tomatoes, the green portions of let­
tuce, cabbage or asparagus, yellow
corn, squash, or sweet potatoes
from such fruits as apricots, oranges'. ■
cantaloupe, peaches, or prunes.
Cod liver oil and hallver oil are the
richest sources of vitamin A that are
known, and the units in the diet can
be increased greatly by taking small
doses of either one.
Since children
need so many units it is generally •
safer to give them some such concen- ■
trated form of vitamin A, especially ।
in the winter time when fresh fruits
and vegetables are scarce.
Vitamin A is necessary because it .
is one of the factors which keeps the
body cells In good condition. It helps
to build up the body tissues so that
they have the power to resist the nu­
merous disease germs which are
found everywhere. Th? germs which
produce colds, sinus and ear troubles
are especially prevalent In the winter ■
time. Vitamin A, along with the oth,er essentials, in a well balanced diet,
helps to prevent these diseases.
A reduced amount of vitmin A will
not only lower resistance toward in­
fection but may produce a number of
other effects upon the human body.
Digestive disturbances such as loss of
appetite and diarrhea may result or,
if the amount is very low, reproduc­
tion and lactation may be hindered.
Vitamin A is necessary in order to
keep the eye in a normal condition.
Without it a characteristic disease de­
velops. The eye lids . become red.
swollen, contain pus and finally the
infection produces blindness unless
vitamin A is added to the diet Vision
may be affected making an individual
partially or entirely blind at night or
on dull dark days.
Since vitamin A can be obtained in
the ordinary diet, why is it necessary ;
for adults to take an additional ■
source such as cod liver oil or hallver
oil. Because some Individuals may
need more pitamin A than others in
order to keep their tissues in a good
nutritive state. However, the tissues .
of some people may need excess vita­
min A to bring them up to normal.
To aid the body to bund up resist- ;
ance against colds, sinus Infections,
and other similar diseases. Include in •
the daily diet foods high in vitamin A. •

JUDGE VICTOR SPRAGUE
SEEKS RENOMINATION

Of interest to many readers of The
News is the fact that Judge Victor D.
Sprague, Cheboygan, is a candidate
for renominatlon for circuit judge of
the 33rd judicial district of Michigan.
He succeeded Judge Shepher, deceas­
ed, of Cheboygan, and formerly of
Lenawee county, who held the office
for some years. Judge Sprague's
record in his district is considered out­
standing. He was a brother of the
late Dr. Minnie Baker of Nashville,
and uncle of Grace Baker Higbee,
wife of Judge Higbee of Grand Rap­
ids.

According to reports from town­

treasurer of Hastings, a larger per­
centage of the taxes of 1934 have been
—•.id than the taxes of the previous

reports a steady reduction, in the

previous to 1934. The county is re­

amounts that ore helpful

county tax of 1934 ought to make

given.
An Invitation to Barry county

-

There is no good argument against
uniform traffic legislation and regu­
lation in the face of the fact that the
killing record of automobiles last
year touched the 36,000 mark.
Think erf it! Thirty-six thousand
lives snuffed out by automobiles in
one year. Why should there be any
argument about uniform traffic laws
and the need of cooperation between
states to eliminate such a disgrace­
ful record as this?
Take a specific example: Why
should one city be allowed, as at
present, to maintain three different
types of "stop” signals at intersec­
tions, thus confusing both its own
drivers and those from other states?
Legislators could work on a ’’life sav­
ing" program such as this to the
benefit of every man, woman and
child in the country.
Confusion no doubt is responsible
for many of these accidents.
Just
a day or so ago the writer stopped
on the corner of a neighboring city,
wondering whether or not to turn to
the'right on the red light, while the
drivers in the rear were cussing us,
no doubt, for our ignorance. Never­
theless, the difference in traffic sig­
nals is most confusing and to us it
seems like the height of foolishness
and almost criminal to have any­
thing but a system of universal rules
for driving on the highways.—Eaton

Give them plenty of room.
3— Don’t ever cross a road or high­
way until you are sure there are no
cars coming from either direction.
4— Don’t attempt to cross an inter­

there is plenty of time.
5— If you see an accident go for

6— Keep clear of the wreck. Let

The Oregonian of Portland sug­
gests that he might get out another
card directed to adults and that it
read:
1— Don’t ever pick up strangers.
2— Always drive on the right hand
side of the road, and when you meet
a pedestrian given him plenty of
room.
3— Maintain a look-out for persons
crossing the road.
4— Have your car under control
when entering an intersection, and
recognize the right of pedestrians to
cross ahead of you.
5— If you see an accident go for
help.
6— If you cannot be helpful, leave
the wreck. Don’t block the highway.
Justice We doubt that few public
Potter, officials, if any, are more
respected by the “folks back

the Supreme Court of Michigan.
Therefore it is not surprising that
people here feel they have a personal
interest in his re-election.
It isn’t
sufllcient to say that Justice Potter is
merely popular because that is too
shallow and Inadequate a term; in
fact he has none of the easy familiar­
ity and glossy good-fellowship which
usully goes with popularity. Rather
people admire the distinguished rec­
ord he has made, they respect his
courage and intelligence and are alway glad to have him back either as
•speaker or better yet as a resident at
nis home on the shore of Wall lake.
It is fortunate when such men as
Justice Potter choose to serve In pub­
lic office rather than the more-lucraiVe field of private practice. Based
on records alone Justice Potter de­
serves re-section and people here
who know him best, agree that as a
fine type of citizen he deserves what­
ever honor may come his way.—

The Availability Many Individuals,
Of Good.
voyaging on the
troubled sea of
mortal existence, may be likened to
boatmen rowing against the tide.
With strenuous and ceaseless effort
they work as though against a pow­
er which they believe will, if not op­
posed, sweep them in a direction the
very opposite to that in which they
have set their course.
To each individual the desired hav­
en is his highest concept of good, that
state of human experience which he
believes will bring him satisfaction
and freedom from further struggles.
Some strive to gain possession of
something which they believe has
been denied them, and others to re­
cover something which they appear
to have lost, such as health, harmony,
opportunity, success, home, compan­
ionship, and the like.
The tide
against which men row is belief in
evil in all its forms, including lack,
limitation, poverty, and discord, and
the boat in which they embark is the
craft of human thought, which, when
not steadied and borne along by the
spiritual understanding of God, may
be turned completely out of its
The teachings of Christ Jesus nev­
er indicate that men must struggle
against evil as something real in or­
der to gain good, since he said, "Fear
not, little flock; for it is your Fath­
er's good pleasure to give you the
kingdom.” We may take this king­
dom as denoting all that is good, sat­
isfying, and needful, and the daily
life of the Master was a testimony to
the truth of his statement, for never
at any time did he experience lack
or limitation. Who that has studied
the Gospel narratives can . picture the
gentle Nazarene struggling again.*!

ity, supply, and dominion he proved
to be available to all men. for he did
not limit the availability of good to
his own experience. On the contrary
he said that his followers should re­
peat his works. The great necessity
of mankind is to awaken to these
facts and to realize that Christ Jesus
spoke no idle word. He meant what
he said, and would not have said it
if he had not known that what he
demanded of his followers was possi­
ble of fulfillment by them.
When a right-thinking individual
finds himself confronted with the
choice between two things, one good
and the other bad, he chooses the one
he believes to be good.
In reading
the Bible the student must choose to
accept as true one of the two records
of creation. The first record states
that man is created in the likeness of
his Father, God, and Is given domin­
ion. The second record depicts man
as made from dust and subject to
sickness, sin, and death. The nature
of our acceptance determines our
harmony or discord, our submission
to evil or our dominion over it. Let.
us, then, relinquish our belief in the
bad and accept as true only the good
record, and let us begin to think
from this standpoint.
On page 4 of her book "Pulpit and
Press,” showing the individual ability
to utilize good. Mary Baker Eddy
.writes, "You have simply to preserve
a scientific, positive sense of unity
with your divine source, and daily
demonstrate this.” In Christian Sci­
ence we learn, that the source from
which man springs is perfect and in­
finite Mind. Therefore, in order to
feel this "sense of unity,” we must
entertain thoughts which are pure,
good, true, wise, and Intelligent. Such
thoughts are natural to us, for they
are the substance of our true self­
hood. This perfect selfhood is not in
matter, but in divine Mind, for Mind
expresses itself only in spiritual ideas,
and man is that very expression.
When we cease our vain struggling
against evil as real and turn humbly
to God, praying with confident ex­
pectancy for that which will meet
our need, and leaving the issue in
God's hands, we shall find that posi­
tive thoughts come freely to our con­
sciousness. Holding to these with
firmness and assurance and mentally
declaring the supremacy of good, we
shall find ourselves lifted above the
tide of error, and steadily carried in
the right direction by the current of
good.
From the foregoing facts it will be
seen that we do not reach our desired
haven by ignoring evil and drifting
with the tide. There is much work
to be done, but it is primarily men­
tal and has behind it the omnipotence
of God. Our mental state determines
our human conditions. With positive
and fearless thoughts within, we
shall find our human affairs taking
on a new aspect And if at first it
seems difficult to listen for God’s
thoughts, let us begin by expressing
the blessed qualities of cheerfulness
and gratitude.
These are buoyant
qualities, uplifting, joyous, and free.
The cheerful and grateful heart
will be receptive of the most lovely
and gracious ideas of infinite Mind.
Faith and goodness, hope and assur­
ance, intelligence and wisdom, are
all ours if we will but avail our­
selves of them. And when the frail
bark of human effort is steadied and
borne onward by the spiritual under­
standing which comes to all who ear­
nestly seek God. it will bring us safe­
ly to the haven of our most cherish­
ed desires.—Christian Science Mon­
itor.

OUTSTATE DRIVERS
SHOULD GET PLATES
Orville E. Atwood, Secretary of
State, has advised car owners expect­
ing to drive outside the state*to equip
their care with full year 1935 plates,
if possible, rather than merely with
stickers.
While all states have been advised
of Michigan’s sticker system, in states
requiring only rear plates, police of­
ficers are attracted only to the rears
of passing cars. The sight of a 1934
plate there, has already resulted in
some Michigan drivers being stopped
until the stickers on the front wind­
shields may be inspected.
In any
state, delay, loss of time and incon­
venience may result from the use of
a 1934 plate, Atwood had previously
warned drivers against taking their
cars out of the state, with neither
new plates or stickers, during the
current extension until midnight Mar.
14, for old plates.

Last week more than 1200 folks
were reached beneficially by the Y.
M. C. A. in helpful programs in Bar­
ry county.
April 6 was chosen by a committee
as the date for the tri-county Con­
ference of Youth, and Hastings as
the place for holding it A new type
of program and an Increase of age
range was suggested. Allegan, Bar­
ry and Calhoun counties cooperating

Rudolph E. Reichert, state bank­
ing commissioner, submitted an an­
nual report to Governor Fitzgerald in
which he said the Michigan banking
situation "is on a firmer basis than
it has been for many years.” He cit­
ed reorganization of 81 banks with
aggregate deposit liability of $45,­
095,000 and a release to depositors of
$32,997,988 during 1934.
Only 23
banks with deposits of $5,243,000
were in conservatorship at the end of
the year, and since then eight have
reopened and 13 have completed
plans for reorganization. The report
stated that commercial deposits in­
creased $66,180,420 during the last
year and saving deposits increased
$73,918,516. Total net increase was
$129,098,936. Total resources of all
Michigan state banks Increased from
$360,023,358 in 1933 to $476,889X119
in 1934. Bonds and securities held
by these banks jumped from $90,­
470,312 to $155,103,640.
Harry L. Hopkins, the relief ad­
ministrator, was disclosed to have de­
termined to shut off the flow of fed­
eral relief funds to hard-pressed
schools after the current term. Let­
ters have gone out to governors of
several states advising them of the
new policy. The decision to halt
FERA aid to schools was revealed in
testimony by Dr. J. W. Studebaker,
federal commissioner of education,
before a House appropriations sub­
committee. The plan is to place
more of the burden of school support
on state legislatures.
Gov. Frank D. Fitzgerald signed
the measure extending the state
moratorium on land contract and
mortgage foreclosures to March 1,
1937.
The original moratorium
would have expired March 1 this
year. The measure signed by the
governor empower courts to continue
foreclosing actions, in the meantime
fixing “fair rentals” and administer­
ing other details.

the house and senate, according to
Senator Don VanderWerp (R) ot
Fremont; chairman of the senate
elections committee. Although it hqar
not been verified, it is believed the,
elections committees of the two hous- es have come to some sort of an •
agreement whereby the entire matter
will be forgotten and those senators &gt;

Gov. Fitzgerald has signed • tha
measure providing for the extension
of the state moratorium on tend con­
tracts and mortgage foreclosures. Tha
original moratorium would have ter­
minated March 1, 1935. The time is
now extended to March 1, 1937.
An emergency allotment of $1,645,­
000 to needy school districts was giv­
en approval by the administrative
board this week, bringing the total
special aid this year up to $3,048,000.
School finance has become an im­
portant problem and constitutes one
of the more serious ones before the
lawmakers. Rep. A. H. Lee (R) of
Royal Oak has introduced a resolu­
tion calling for a constitutional
amendment to do away with the
primary school fund.
The proposi­
tion would place air revenues now col­
lected for the primary fund into the
general fund and in turn would be
disbursed to the school districts. In
a companion bill he would have the
state guarantee the pay of public '
school teachers.
Gov. Fitzgerald has sent a
to the legislature that
ancial aid for the public scl
dependent upon enactment of his
economy program.
n. If the legislature ,
refuses to pass administration mea- .
sures providing for the consolidation i
of the many state departments, he
declares, the treasury will be unable
to meet the demands of the schools.
‘The responsibility is the legisla­
ture’s," the executive said. “The bills
in question are designed to save mon­
ey so that there will be more for the '•
schools. There must be no more
taxes."

WORLD DAY OF PRAY- REPUBLICANS WINNERS
ER OBSERVED^FRIDAY IN VILLAGEJLECTION
Service I* Held At Baptist Church Northrup, Aimcmwt, Ind., Is Excep­
tion. Throe Ticket* In Field Bring*
With A Large Number In
Out Large Vote.
Attendance.
The World’s Day of Prayer was
observed by a Union service in the
Baptist church Friday afternoon at
2:00, with Mr*. Ida Turner as chairmam All joined tn the opening
hymn, "All Hail the Power of Jesus’
Name," after which Mrs. Turner read
Mark 10, ending with the great com­
mission of Jesus: "Go yeti Into all the
world and preach' the' Gospel to every
creature.” The ’ congregation sang
“Sweet Hour of Prayer," and the op­
ening prayer was offered by Rev. D.
M. Hayter.
Since the theme tor the meeting
was “Bear Ye One Another’s Bur­
dens,” the needs of various racial
groups were briefly stated that all
might pray more intelligently and
with greater understanding for these
needs to be met Following are the
groups mentioned:
The Negro In Africa and in the U.
S.—Mrs. Winnie Lundstrum.
Japanese in Japan — Mirs Emma
Huwe.
Orientals in America — Mrs. Ed.
Hafner.
The Mountain Whites—Miss Frieda
Schulze.
American Indians — Mrs. Clyde
Hamilton.
The Native Torchbearer — Mrs.
Ben Reynolds.
One interesting emphasis was that
each active Christian in Nashville
was a “native torchbearer” as much
as those active Christian nationals of.
other lands who are usually so desig­
nated. The greatest need of all men
everywhere is the total surrender of
their Uvea to the Living Christ, This
is furthered by understanding be­
tween races and the willingness of all
active Christians everywhere to give
money, time, personality—themselves
—to Christ
Between these talks were periods
of earnest prayer for the advance­
ment of missions, and special music
by each church.
Quartette, “At the Place of Pray­
er"—Mr. and Mrs. Clare McDerby,
Mr. and Mrs. Carl Huwe.
Quartette, “Stand Up, Stand Up
for Jesus"— Elinor and Wilma Par­
rott, Jack Bowman, Clayton Wurtz.
Duet, "Tell the Blessed Story"—
Mrs. Flossie Shupp. Mrs. Will Hanes.
Duet,, "Thou Art My Refuge”—
Mrs. Maude Evans, Rev. M. E. Hoyt.
This last number was composed,
both music and words, by Miss Etha
Nagler, who is a missionary in China.
It is of interest locally that she first
sailed for China while her father
was the Methodist minister at Lake
Odessa, about 1920.
Another interesting feature was
the story, “My Becky's Conversion to
Foreign Missions," so well read by
Mrs. Dorothy Shupp.
After the closing prayers, the con­
gregation formed a friendship circle
around the church, singing “Blest Be
the Tie that iBnds.” About seventyfive were present

DIES AT MUSKEGON
Word was received on Wednesday
of last week that Kermit Bulkley.
little son of Mr. and Mrs. Meredith
Bulkley of Muskegon, passed away
the previous Monday. It will be re­
membered that Mrs. Bulkley and Ker­
mit were at W. E. Hanes’ a few
weeks ago, coming here from Shelby,
after having scarlet fever, and Ker­
mit was at the Pultz hospital for a■
week. Those acquainted with Mr. and.
Mrs. Bulkley sympathize with them
in their bereavement. Mrs. Bulkley■
is a niece of Mrs. Hanes.

With three tickets in the field, and
more than half of the ballots split,
the Republicans, with Lynn C. Lorbeck heading the ticket, swept to al­
most complete victory in the village
election of Monday, which was the
more of a victoFy since the Independ­
ents made a complete sweep the year
previously.
The best "campaigner" seemed to
be E3mer Northrup, former assessor,
who spent the winter in Florida and
reached home in time to vote. Mean­
time he had'been nominated by both
Democrats and Independents as as­
sessor, ' and as he could run only on
one, remained on the Independent tic­
ket. and was elected to the only office
not carried by the Republican nomi­
nees. ■
,
There was a total vote of 396, of
which 207 were splits, 81 straight
Republican, 37 straight Democratic,
and 72 straight Independent.
The new officials are: President,
Lynn C. Lorbeck; clerk, Henry F.
Remington; treasurer, Mildred G.
Mater; assessor, Elmer Northrup;
trustees, full term, Lee Bailey, Ralph
Wetherbee and Stewart Lofdahl.

LANSING
(By Frank D. Brown, Special Cor-

Despite Republican victories at the
polls in Monday's four special legisla­
tive elections, which technically give*
the administration control of the
lower bouse, the Fitzgerald program
is not going to have such easy sail­
ing as outward appearances would in­
dicate. By winning all four scats in
the House, the Republicans, accord­
ing to the official roll call, have 51
votes as against the 49 which the
Democrats can muster, but this does
not mean a whole lot
the Republi­
cans with their newly gained strength
attempt to antagonize the minority
group to the extent that they become
blindly partisan. The only result can
be the defeat of many worth while
measures and the ultimate failure of
much that is good in Michigan’s 1935
"new deal."
The clean sweep, which Republiisuj^
candidates made in all four legislative
districts, naturally, is the source of
much gratification to Gov.. Fitzgerald
and his followers. On the other hand
It is the source of bitter disappoint­
ment to the Democrats, nevertheless,
the Democrats are inclined to accept
the reversal philosophically and they
appear willing to cooperate in so long
as no attempt is made to employ
“steam roller" tactics to drive them
Into line.
The
administration - Republican
group in the House this week delegat­
ed a committee of its members to
confer with Speaker George Schroed­
er (D), relative to reorganizing cer­
tain important standing committees.
This was the first gesture on the part
of the newly ascended Republicans to
gain control of the House machinery
but up until the time this was writ­
ten no overtures had been made to
the speaker. Whether or not such
demands will be foisted upon the
speaker remains to be seen. If the
Republicans are "smart," they will let
the matter stand where it 'is. The
treatment received thus far at the
hands of a Deraocraic controlled
House has bein most geenrous. If
not, they will attempt a reorganiza­
tion of committees’ and thereby en­
gender bitterness which can only re­
sult in a delay of legislative progress ’
and the possible slaughter of many
administration bills.
As now aligned, the House stands
51 Republicans and 49 Democrats
but the fly in the ointment is found
in the forced absence of Rep. Wil­
liam A. Ward (R) of Grand Traverse.
Rep. Ward since many weeks before
last November's elections has been
confined to the hospital and without
liis vote on important measures the
Republicans can only hope for a
“symle," that is, unless enough Dem­
ocratic bolters can be found to ride
along with them . This latter possi­
bility is rather remote in event efforts
are made to reorganize committees
and the blood of the partisan ox is
spewn along the footpath of legisla­
tive accomplishment.
Rep. Ward, Is is understood, has
sufficiently recovered from his pro­
longed illness to be brought to Lans­
ing in event the importance of his
absence demands such a radical step,
however, this is considered mere idle
gossip. The Republicans likely will
seek to make peace with their neigh­
bors as the easiest way out of an em­
barrassing position and the present
session brought to a close as quickly
as possible.
For the first time in years, if not in
the history of a Michigan legislature,
one of the houses has adopted the
procedure of regularly convening in
the morning rather than at the usual
hour of two o’clock. The legislative
workday has been a standing joke
with the public for some time; the
time of actual meeting usually run­
ning from 2 p. m. to 4 p. m.
This
gesture on the part of the Senators
counteracts the odium attached there­
to but it still fails to meet "Mr. Av­
erage Citizen's” conception of just
what a real day’s work amounts to.
The governor is still in combat
with what is probably one of the
strongest organized group of lobby­
ists in the capital —the Michigan Edu­
cational association.- Gov. Fitzgerald
declared this week that the schools
have and always will be fully taken

As one progresses in the study of
the Christian Science textbook “Sci­

Scriptures,’’ by Mr*. Eddy, he exper­
iences healing from physical distress
and discordant conditions. He also
realizes, sometimes quite suddenly,
that his life, his living, has been re­
constructed, his character sweetened,
broadened, enlarged, his whole out­
look widened and uplifted. This is
not surprising considering the ideals
of Christian Science and its unfoldment of man’s perfect selfhood. We
come to see that true self-realization.

was a rattle-snake, and on the lowest
white stripe was the legend "Don’t
Tread On Me," The rattle-snake em­
blem was featured to a considerable
extent on the revolutionary flags.
That emblem was probably inspired
by an article written at the time, In
which the writer advocated the rat­
tlesnake as the national emblem for
the following reasons:
The rattle­
snake has no eye-lids to obscure its
vision, and is therefore ever on the
alert; he gives fair warning before
striking, but when that .warning is ig­
nored he strikes with fatal effect; he

Prior to the commissioning of this
small fleet. Colonel Gadsden of South
Carolina had a flag made and sent to
his friend. Commodore Hopkins,
which the Commodore was to fly as
his personal broad pennant, denoting
which was bls flagship. The flag had
a bright yellow field and upon it was
a coiled rattlesnake. Below the snake
appeared the legend, "Don't Tread
On Me." The flag is of interest for
two reasons: first, because it again
features the rattlesnake emblem; and
second, because it was the first per­
sonal flag ever displayed by a hag of­
ficer in the American Navy.

(By Frank D. Brown, Special Cor­
respondent)

Senator Leon D. Case of Water­
vliet, Democratic floor leader of the
upper house, headed an unsuccessful
attempt this week to block passage of
an administration bill which is de­
signed to consolidate all welfare and
relief agencies tn the state.
The
threat that Washington authorities
might not approve of the new relief
set-up was made by the Senator who
intimated that as a consequence of
the enactment of the bill, the federal
administrator, Harry Hopkins, might
find it necessary to create his own or­
ganization entirely independent of
state influence.
On the other hand. Senator Case,
speaking with authority, told the
Senate that if the present relief Or­
ganization should be maintained With­
out alteration and Gov. Fitzgeraldshould decide to appoint Grover C.
Dillman, former state highway com­
missioner and now state welfare di­
rector, as the third member of the

THURSDAY, MARCH 21,1935
Effective For Attention is called,
146 Years.
fittingly so, to the fact
that the Constitution
of the United States became effective
146 years ago today.
The history is that the Constitution
was adopted in federal convention on
Sept 17, 1787, and was ratified by
the necessary nine states by June 21,
1788, but was not declared in force
until the first Wednesday in March,
1789.
The dates, however, are not so im­
portant as the larger fact that the
government brought into creation by
this extraordinary document has last­
ed longer with radical change than
the government in any other civilized
nation in the world.
The Constitution has been subject­
ed to severe strain from time to time
and perhaps no more severe than dur­
ing the last several months.
Yet, regardless of what new theor­
ies may have been brought to the
fore and regardless of what the pro­
ponents of these theories would like
to experiment, the fact remains that
no document ever declared more fully
the rights of man and no document
ever sought more determinedly to
protect Individual liberty.
•
That fact is well worth remember­
ing in these times and all times.—

believed himself in a deeply fog-lad­
en lowland of discouragement, dis­
appointment, and fear.
Let us, then, refuse to stay down in
the mist, to lose sight of good, to
have our vision dimmed. As we rise,
we help to lift the world's thought to
the heights where good is reevaled.
As the nations learr to rise above the
fogs of evil propaganda, the darkness
of hate, fear, and greed, the mist of
confusion and misunderstanding, to
take, instead, the ascending way of
kindliness, to trust in God, and to
help one another they will be led into
the radiant light of peace.
Each one of us can help toward
that great desideratum, if we watch
to see that our footsteps lead to good
and are steadily ascending out of
darkness Into God’s glorious light.
Centuries ago Jesus pointed out the
upward way; and Mrs. Eddy says in
‘'Miscellaneous Writings’’ (p. 328),
“He alone ascends the hill of Chris­
tian Science who follows the Way­
shower, the spiritual presence and
idea of God.” Doubt, darkness, fear,
lovelessness, and joylessness, all fogs
and m Istji of evil, vanish as we men­
tally ascend the heights of scientific

sciousness of dominion, the radiance
of the sunlight of Truth, Illumine our
pathway.—Christian Science Monitor.

Found Hired Boy And Car Gone,
Also Other Things.
Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Northrop and
Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Ransom of Hastings returned from their winter stay
in Kissimmee and other Florida points
on Sunday, March 10. The trip was a
very instructive also wonderful one to
them. Every moment was a pleasure,
from sleeping in the Smoky Moun­
tains to coming home, and thanks to
Amy Hartwell and friends, the Northrops found a warm house, even the
clock running. While Mr. and Mrs.
Ransom found the boy they had rich­
ly paid by giving him all proceeds
from their farm, such as four calves,
•the young lambs, all cream nnd eggs,
during their absence, had stolen their
car, two hundred dollars worth of
valuables from house, all tools, can't
say how much more, and ran away
the day they arrived home. The goods
have since been found.
They sure
have our sympathy. We feel the boy
will be caught, as if he was not smart
enough to know when had made a
big thing, he can’t get far.
Mr. and Mrs. Northrop are looking
fine and brown. They loved the Sun­
ny South, though even the South has
its drawbacks. One knows how much
singing birds (the mocking bird sings
all night) and wonderful sunshiny
days have to do to cheer and keep
one in good spirits anywhere.
The
South gives you your much desired
wonderful climate. But ..e see Mr.
and Mrs. Northrop knew and remem­
bered their good and tried home
friends and are sure glad to see ev­
eryone again.

No immediate decision* was given
by Justice Trombley of Charlotte at

Friday of George Swift of Vermont­
ville. charged with involuntary man­
slaughter and negligent homicide.
Swift is free on $2,000 bail. The
charges against him result from an
auto-train accident near Vermont­
ville, Aug. 10, 1934, in which five
persons were killed.
The five acci­
dent victims were riding in a car
which was pushed into the path of a
Michigan Central passenger train by
a car driven by Swift.
Justice Trombley, it was reported,
..would not decide whether to bind
Swift over to circuit court for trial or
to dismiss the case until he has had
more time to consider the evidence.

"Dochlrae okakede gozaimasnka?"
says the long distance telephone op­
erator in Japan, meaning “What
place do you wish to reach, please?"
And if the calling person in Tokyo,
for example, places a call for some­
one in the United States, the oper­
ator replies "Shochl itashimashlta,"
which means “It will be done." It
can be, too; for telephone service
between this country and the Flow­
ery Kingdom is now available to the
general public.
Official Greetings Exchanged
Taking part in the ceremonies
which formally opened this newest
overseas telephone service last De­
cember were Secretary of State Cor­
dell Hull and other government and
telephone offlcials in Washington,
and Japanese Foreign Minister Kokl
Hirota and other government and
telephone offlcials in Tokyo. As the
greetings were exchanged across
half the world, it was seven o'clock
in the evening in Washington, and
nine o’clock the next morning in
Japan.
Japan la the 60th Country
Japan is the sixtieth foreign coun­
try to be brought within voice range
of the United States. That leaves
only three countries having Impor­
tant telephone systems still to be
added to America’s list of overseas
contacts. These are China, Russia,
and New Zealand.
The new radio telephone channel
between this country and Japan
makes the seventeenth direct ra­
dio connection between Bell Tele­
phone System transmitting and re­
ceiving stations and points across
the water. Calls to countries not
reached by direct circuits are
switched at the far end to land
lines ot additional radio circuits,
or a combination of both.

Operates on Short Waves
A "voice bridge” more than 5,000
miles long spans the Pacific Ocean
to link San Francisco and Tokyo
through a short wave radio tele­
phone channel operating on wave
lengths between 14 and 45 meters.
The Bell System’s transmitting sta­
tion at Dixon, Cat, near San Fran­
cisco, focuses its full strength on the
receiving station at Komuro, Japan,
by means of a highly directional
transmitting antenna. In the opposite
direction, the radio waves are sent
out from Nazakl, which is also near
Tokyo, and received in this country
at the station north of San Fran­
cisco at Point Reyes.
In the United States, the trans­
mitting and receiving equipment
used in connection with service to
Japan is the same as that which al­
ready provides direct communica­
tion with Hawaii, the Philippines,
and the Netherland East Indies.
Reaches Principal Japanese Cities
The area in Japan which is within
voice reach of America includes thd
Island of Hondo, on which most of
the principal cities are located, and
also the city ot Nagasaki on the
island of Kyushu. This area em­
braces in all some 380,000 tele­
phones. Telephone connection with
Japan may be had from all Bell and
Bell connecting telephones in the
United States, Canada, Cuba and
Mexico.
With voices flashing across the
Pacific between this country and
Japan in the fraction of a second, it
is interesting to recall that Japa­
nese was the first foreign language
ever spoken over the telephone, and
that there are now living a noted
educator and two statesmen of Japan
who can remember when all the
telephone service in the world con-

These three men were then young

day to the laboratory of the late
Alexander Graham Bell, Inventor of
the telephone, in Boston. He Invited
them to talk to one another over
the recently invented instruments,
and this they did in their native

lighted to find that the telephone
would “speak Japanese" just as well
as it transmitted the English lan­

Relations Begun 80 Years Ago
America's relations with Japan
began only 80 years ago, with Com­
modore Perry’s historic visit. Com­
munication between the two coun­
tries was then a, matter of tedious
months in sailing vessels. The de­
velopment of fast steamships and
frequent sailings did much to cut
down this Interval. Electricity has
closed the gap: first the telegraph
cable, then radio telegraphy, and
finally the telephone.
Sec'y Hull Sees Mutual Benefits
Said Secretary of State Hull to
Foreign Minister Hirota of Japan,
in the course of the inauguration of
the new telephone service between
the two countries: “It is a common
observation that in the measure that
people enjoy personal contact with
one another, so do the barriers which
separate them dissolve. This new
means of communication which we
inaugurate today spans the wide
ocean as an additional link between
our peoples. It is my hope that by
furthering the interchange of ideas
and of commerce which play so im­
portant a part In the relationship ot
states, radio telephone service will
be of great and mutual benefit to
our two nations."

al interest* of the country.
I quote again from Congressman
Woodruff:
"Another important matter
to
which our internationalist!! consist­
ently and insistently close their eyes
and ears is the fact that even under
the Republican tariff bills, foreign
producers were permitted to bring in­
to this country free practically ev­
erything which we do not produce.
Two-thirds of all our imports were of
this class.
HOFFMAN—Galley 2
"Is our free market for these pro­
ducts of no consequence to the for­
eign producers? Is it necessary, in
order to qualify as “the good neigh­
bor” to yield to them also that part
of the American market previously
supplied by the American producers
in the city and on the farm? Should
we do this when our agriculture is
prostrate and more than eleven mil­
lion of our workers are unemployed ?
I do not believe we should."
Can anyone disagree with Con­
gressman Woodruff in his comments?

That question has occurred to me
many times, more frequently during
the past two years. The New Deal
gives little thought, makes few plans
that do not include foreign peoples of
nations. Practically all these gentle­
men seem greatly concerned in a
‘■Planned’’ world. When they have a
few* moments’ rest from their labors
of telling us how bankrupt we are,
how little we know’ and how much
we owe to the world as a whole, they
devote their time to schemes, the ob­
ject of which seems to be the better­
ment of everyone, except the people
of this country.
You will remember that the last

ville.
With Announcer.

On Monday, April 1. voters of Bar­
ry county and the state will go to the
election polls once more, this time to
elect township officers, city officials,
two regents of the University, a mem­
ber of the state board of education,
and two members to the state board
of agriculture, two justices of the
state supreme court, and a state sup­
erintendent of public instruction.
There will also be the proposed
amendment to the constitution of the
state with reference to the determina­
tion of the votes and contested elec­
tions by the board of state canvassers,
to amend Sec. IV. Article XVI, of the
constitution.
Castleton township, with three tic­
kets in toe field which insures a pret­
ty full vote again, has an extra bal­
lot for rural tax-paying voters only,
the result of which will decide the
question of rural fire protection from
Nashville and the matter of levying
a tax therefor.
The ballot reads: "Shall the Town­
ship Board of the Township of Cas­
tleton, Barry County, Michigan, be
empowered to enter into a contract
with the Village of Nashville, in said
township, for the use of the fire pro­
tection equipment of said village, for
the purpose of fire prevention in said
■township outside said village, togeth­
er with the power in said Board to
levy a tax on property outside said
village to defray the cost of said pro­
tection ?
.

( ) Yes.
( ) No.
To further protect the legality of
this ballot, it will be necessary for the
would be elector to sign a slip certi­
fying that he is a resident and tax
payer of the township outside the
corporate limits of Nashville.
In Maple Grove, two tickets are in
the field, but no township propositions

Officers Have Set-to
With Savage Dog
A Suspected Sheep-Killer Makes At­
tack On Them Last Mon­
day

Deputy Sheriff Lorbeck, accompa­
nied by Vem McPeck, were out in the
country Monday Investigating the
latest attack on the sheep of Wendall
West, one of several on this particu­
lar flock, and stopped at Lou Sizer's
to examine his large Bull-Airedale
dog for signs of wool, when the dog
sprang for Mr. Lorbeck’s throat and
in beating the dog off. Mr. Lorbeck’s
left hand and the thumb on the right
hand were very badly bitten, and
when McPeck endeavored to help
Lorbeck, the dog, on which Lorbeck
was sitting by this time, was still try­
ing to get at Lorbeck'^ throat, and
chewed McPeck's thumb for interfer­
ing in his game.
They found no wool in evidence in
the dog’s mouth. It was a painful
and dangerous experience for the
men. Many sheep have been killed or
terribly injured this season, probably
75 of them in this vicinity. Sheriff
Blakney and McPeck were working
together Tuesday on other killings.
Dr. Morris attended Mr. Lorbeck’s
Injuries, and Dr. Lofdahl, Mr. Mc­
Peck's.

Spring Arrived
Last Thursday

Made Music.

Miss Spring in seasonal attire ar­

time of the vernal equinox, and fol­
lowing a fine settling rain of the pre­
vious night which had thunder and
lightning for its accompaniment, and
some dirt, probably from the western
sand storms.
And then too the robin chorused
about in the early hours, and have
since been apartment hunting; and
then that evening there was a lovely
concert by our friends, the frogs, who
likely took their first freeze in that
same night, only to thaw out with
Friday's spring day.
Although some spring finery, new
and old, made its appearance, it’s bet­
ter to leave the galoshes handy yet.
One can’t always tell, surely not un­
til after Easter, as it is as likely to
snow as not on the old time day of
the “Easter bonnets.”

the University of Wisconsin.
Wheat The troubles of the wheat
Eating, growers have been assigned
to various causes, especially
to over-expansion of acreage, more
efficient cultivation, and the competi­
tion of new wheat raising countries.
But there is another important facor which is apt to be overlooked: we
eat leas wheat. The consumption of
wheat per capita has been declining
for thirty years and the curve is still
downward. If we ate as much per
capita as we did in 1900, the Amer­
ican people would be eating 145 mil­
lion barrels of flour instead of 100
million, which would mean 672 mil­
lion bushels of wheat instead of 465
million.
Many causes combine to account
for the decreased use of bread. For
one thing, we eat less food than we
used to. Less outdoor activity, in­
creased use of machinery, riding to
work instead of walking, and warmer
dwellings that make less demand on
bodily heat—all these chaises tend
to reduce the amount of food requirThe reduced demand for energy
producing foods has encouraged a
much greater diversification of diet;
and this in turn has been greatly
stimulated by improved distribution,
advertising, health education, and the

•seeking, longing, hoping for such a
happy condition? But how often joy
seems strangely silent or altogether
absent! Really, it is a present possi­
bility for all. When men learn how
to order their thinking aright, and
understand that each day can be or­
dered accordingly, they cease believ­
ing that joy or any other good thing
needed for a happy day can be with­
held. What a change joy makes in
one's everyday life!
Christian Science brings to man­
kind the great revelation of God's in­
finitude, omnipotence, omnipresence,
with the happy deduction that be­
cause God is All-in-all evil is not real
or true.
Christian Science presents
the truth that man is spiritual, God­
like, created to bear witness to good,
and that in tod's “presence is fulness
of joy" (Psalms 16:11). To refuse to
believe evil’s claim to intelligence or
might is to deny its baseless pre­
tenses, and such denial casts out the
fear that would rob men of their
rightful peace and joy and happiness
in everyday life.
It makes a great difference whether
we believe each day is our own and
so, alone, we must get through It
somehow, or understand man’s unity
with God and believe as did Jesus,
■who said, "The Father hath not left
me alone” (John 8:29). Is not this
conscious unity with God the happyway to “do always those things that
please him”? And thus to do God's
will brings present proof of His good­
ness in everyday life. Jesus the
Christ proved that understanding the
truth of man’s oneness with the Fath­
er overcomes any belief of separation
f r.&gt;m good.
“Consult thy every-day life," Mrs.
Eddy admonishes in her Message to
the Mother Church for 1902 (p. 17):
"take its answer as to thy aims, mo­
tives, fondest purposes."
Some­
times "aims, motives, fondest pur­
poses” are consulted in regretful re­
membrance of yesterday’s lost oppor­
tunities, or in hopeless dreams of to­
morrow’s limited ones. Can any good
be accomplished by such vain day­
dreams? What a futile way to spend
a day! But to live each day richly is
to realize that "aims, motives, fond­
est purposes” are "always those
things that please" Him, and that
they are unfolding to the glory of
God. What a glorious and inspiring
example was the everyday life of
Mary Baker Eddy! Let us "take its
answer," whenever tempted to fear
that God is unknowable.
Some persons may think it easy for
those who are well to order their day
aright, but not for those who are ill.
Each day it is being more generally
recognized that disease is primarily
mental, a condition induced by worry,
discord, or fear of some sort. Howvery important, then, if such condi­
tions appear, to consult our “aims,
motives, fondest purposes,” to dia-

In contrast with former sessions, I
the present legislature has before it
a relatively small number of measures which would affect automobile
owners. Two such measures have
been passed in the Senate and sent to &lt;
the House committee on roads and
bridges, which has thus far not re­
leased road bills of that body. The
two Senate measures would provide:
that hearses and ambulances would
be classed as passenger cars, thus to
be licensed at the rate of 35 cents a
hundred pounds; that the present 60
day allowable extension for the pur­
chase of license plates after Jan. 1
each year, would be reduced to 30
days. Power of extension rests with
the Secretary of State.
The Senate taxation committee has
not acted on a proposal to increase
the state gasoline tax from 3 to 4
cents a gallon, the added collections
to go to the primary school fund.

ditch" and without their support there
is no likelihood of it passing should it
get out of committee.
The Thatcher school-aid bill which
would appropriate $25,000,000 a year
for the public schools has occupied
much of the time of the House the
past several days. A public hearing
was held on the measure Tuesday
night with school board members and
educational leaders from the four
corners of the state pressing their de­
mand that they be given the full
amount of money provided for in the
bilL
The governor on any number of oc­
casions during the last two weeks has
expressed in no uncertain terms his
opposition to such a sum of money,
claiming that the amount in the first
place is wholly unwarranted and in
the second place, such an appropria­
tion would disrupt the program of
economy which he is endeavoring to
"put across."
To the disinterested observer it ap­
pears that the school people are try­
ing to get every cent possible out of
the state treasury, regardless of wheher or not the school really need it,
and Dr. Paul F. Voelker, superintend­
ent of Public Instruction, (who is a
candidate for re-election thsi spring)
stands ready to capitalize on the pos­
sibilities of the situation, to the end
that his personal fortunes may be fur­
thered.
There is no serious doubt about the
schools needing as much money as
they ask for. No one seem to have
come forward with a definite or
worthwhile argument justifying such
a sum. The governor has pledged
sufficient state aid to make up the
$68,000,000 school budget which the
educational group claims is needed. In
view of this pledge, the school people
have capitulated and admitted in so
many words that thy have been try­
ing to get all that is possible but are
willing to accept whatever they can
get
It is estimated that about $20,000,­
000 of state aid will be required to
supplement the primary school fund
and local taxes to fulfill the $68,000,­
000 which the school lobby is seeking.
Without an opposing vote the
House passed the bill creating a cor­
poration and securities commission as
recommended by the governor. This
measure which now goes to the gov­
ernor will combine the work of the
present securities commission with
that of the corporation division of the
secretary of state's office.
The Teachout small loan bill reduc­
ing interest rates from three and onehalf per cent to one and three-quar­
ters has also been given House ap­
proval. The bill originally provided
for a reduction to one per cent This
measure, or rather others dealing
with the same subject have been
“kicked" around the capltol for the
past two or three sessions without
getting through the gubernatorial
barricade. Two years ago a similar
bill was successful only to meet the
fate of Gov. Comstock’s veto. This
session, it may be different although
the small loan crowd in the state pre­
sents a formidable front and wields
considerable influence which is not to
be discounted.
Accord has been reached between
the administration and the Democrat­
ic bloc on the bill to amalgamate all
tax-collecting agencies. One proviso
exists, however, and that is that the
automobile licensing division be-left in
the hands of the secretary of state.
The Democrats have insisted on this
and Gov. Fitzgerald has agreed. With
the amendments to be attached, the
bill provides that the new tax depart­
ment would have delegated to it the
collection of the sales tax, such prop­
erty tax as may be left, the gasoline
tax and all other revenues except the
automobile weight tax. Passage of
this measure would automatically
wipe out ot existence the state tax
commission and the sales tax division
as now constituted.
Aside from this bill and that deal­
ing with the welfare consolidation,
there remain several others of prime
importance and in which the admin­
istration has deep interest as to their
ultimate passage. Included among
these is the bill to abolish the state
administrative board, the bill to re­
turn to the legislature the sole power
to appropriate money, the bill to con­
solidate the state’s financial system,
and the one providing for the recon­
struction of methods of handling
prison and parole problems.

S. D. A. Leader Dies
In California
Elder Daniels, Former World Presi­
dent, Had Just Finished Book On
Prophecy.
Elder Arthur Grosvenor Daniels,
for 21 years world president of the
Seventh Day Adventist denomination,
died Friday afternoon at the church’s
sanitarium at Glendale, Calif.
Early in February Elder Daniels
learned he was suffering from an inr
curable disease.
Allowing himself
five weeks in which to finish his re­
ligious book, The Abiding Gift of
Prophecy, he worked almost unceas­
ingly to finish it. Death came as his
five weeks expired.
All that remained when he died
Friday, was the final editing of the
voluminous manuscript, but the com­
mittee of nine Adventist leaders
whom he asked to assist him when he
realized the end was near were ex­
pected to take care of that last detail
of his writing.
A memorial service was held at
5:30 o’clock Saturday at the Battle
Creek Seventh Day Adventist Taber­
nacle for Elder Daniels, in place of
the usual vesper service. The speak­
ers included Dr. A. B. Olsen, George
A. Judd, Elder N. T. Nicola, who was
a roommate of Elder Daniel in his
school days, and Elder Bunch. Ap­
propriate music was played, and the
service lasted about 45 minutes.
Under his leadership and guidance
for 21 years—the longest that any
man has ever been the titular head of
the denomination—the Seventh Day
Adventist church reached into new
fields, expanded its medical and col•legp efforts, underwent an almost
! complete structural reorganization?
saw its followers multiply.
Even after handing over the reins
as world head of the church, in May.
1922, he remained the virtual leader
of the denomination. His interest in
the church and its work continued to
dominate him and at his death he
was rounding out four years’ service
as chairman of the board of trustees
of the College of Medical Evangel'its
at Los Angeles.
—R. H. Loppenthien, Hastings bus­
inessman, was seriously injured when
the radius rod of his car broke and he
crashed into a tree near Leach lake.
He was taken to Pennock hospital,
where he was treated for a broken
leg, knee cap, several broken ribs, and
cuts and lacerations about hij^ face.
Mr. Loppenthien, dry goods merchant
until recently, was on his way to
Freeport when the accident occurred.
When the rod broke he lost control of

The Message Must Go Through
Chews of men, along a gale-blasted
road in Michigan, toiled in drifted
snow, battling against a lashing wind.
All about them broken poles —
casualties of the storm—lay sprawled
on the ground amid tangled copper
wires. And every wire was heavily
burdened with the telephone’s arch­
enemy — sleet.
At the first warning of this enemy,
mobilization begins. Word is flashed
through every department. All hold
themselves in readiness. Repair
trucks, fully manned, rush to the
damaged area and the telephone
storm troops go into action.
During such emergencies there can
be no waiting for good weather;
there can be no thought of cost or
comfort in the work of restoring ser­
vice promptly. The messages of
Michigan subscribers must go
through I
But it is not only in emergencies
that the work of safeguarding
the service is carried on. It is
fl
a year-round job. Millions of
n J

dollars are spent annually for new
and improved equipment. Day by
day rigid inspection and maintenance
go forward.
Outdoors, patrolmen examine
every foot of Michigan’s aerial cable
once a year. All long distance cable
is tested regularly with the galvanom­
eter, an instrument which can in­
stantly detect a flaw and, even on a
cable miles in length, locate that
flaw almost to the foot.
Indoors, constant tests are made
of all the intricate machinery of the
modem central office. And the search
for improvement moves steadily on,
an endless search for equipment
that shall be still more sturdy, still
more efficient.
Neither trouble nor expense can
be considered in the task of keeping
open Michigan’s copper lanes of
speech; for today, as in the past, the
guiding principle is the tradition
which demands — fair or
stormy, day or night — that

Well Received. -To Repeat At
N. Maple Grove.

The “Old Fashioned Singin’ School”
is to be repeated.
This entertain­
ment given at the Evangelical church
last Sunday night by members of the
choir, was in every way a success,
and owing to the fact that so many
expressed their desire to hear it again
the chairman has arranged to have it
repeated next Sunday night at’7:30
at the North Maple Grove Evangeli­
cal church.
.
At 7:30 the lights were turned out
and a lamp placed on the schoolmas­
ter's desk and one on tne organ. The
schoolmaster (Harold Bahs) then en­
tered. dressed in an old fashioned
long-tailed suit, typical of the sing­
ing school days. Then came the or­
ganist, Miss Hartwell, dressed in an
elaborate
old white embroidered
dress and beautiful hair ornaments.
Members of the school were: Charles
Brumm. Ed. Schantz. Hiram Perkins.
Frank and Maurice Pvrchis, Wallace
Graham. Fred Ackett. Jack Bowman.
Rev. and Clayton Wurtz, Nettie Par­
rott, Della Bowman, Pauline Lykins,
Ethel Lundstrum, Selma Bahs, Mrs.
Sam Marshall. Ardis Brumm, Paul­
ine Dause and Elinore and Wilma
Parrott
These members entered in groups
representing families, and each group
carried a lantern. The costumes were
the attractive part of the entertain­
ment Some of them were very rare.
Frank Purchls wore a small Tuxedo
worn at a wedding 50 years ago. Rev.
Wurtz wore a big black square pas­
tor’s coat with plaited back and a lit­
tle white bow tie, which was a per­
fect costume of the pastors of that
day. Others wore long linen dusters
of the old type, while the young men
wore shirts open at the neck, with
open vests, and all wore rubber boots.
These young men acted as ushers for
the offertory, looking indeed as the
country boys of long ago.
The ladies’ costumes were very
much in keeping with the singing
school days. Some wore wedding
dresses, while others wore full black
skirts with white shirtwaists. Each*
These
lady wore a shoulder wrap,
consisted of opera, paisley, Venetian
lace and silk shawls, silk jackets
with full peplons. capes, crocheted
jackets, etc. Elinore and Wilma Par­
rott dressed as little girls with large
hair ribbons.
The hair dressing was especially
good, and older people attending en­
joyed looking back on the styles of
their youth.
The program was as follows:
Opening pongs by school—"Ring
the Bells of Heaven" and "Shall We
Gather at the River.”
Men's chorus—"Hold the Fort.”
Duet—"The Bird with the Broken
Pinion.”
School—"When They Ring Those
Golden Bells."
Male quartet—"When the Mists
Have Rolled Away.”
Duet—"I Think When I Read that
Sweet Story of Old."
School—“When the Roll is Called
Up Yonder."
Mixed quartet — “Home of the
Soul."
Duet—"Scatter Sunshirie."
School—"Old Time Medley."
Offertory.
Mixed quartet—"The Lily of the
Valley."
School—"Whiter Than the Snow."
Mixed quartet—"Precious Name.’
School — "Throw Out the Life
Line,” "At the Cross," “No Never
Alone,” “Blest Be the Tie."
A very good offering was received
and the appreciation of the audience
inspired ■ us to continue these enter­
tainments. The second will be given
the latter part of May. Anyone wish­
ing to hear this first one again, may
do so by attending the North Maple
Grove church next Sunday night.

lief of mankind,
peace treaties do
not end wars they merely punctuate
them. The situation that has now
arisen—or rather, come to light—in
Europe would argue that this belief
will govern the treaty which conclud­
ed “the war to end war.” Chancellor
Hitler’s announcement that Germany
is building an army four or five times
as large a* her quota under the Ver­
sailles Treaty has not only capped
the rearmament programs that have
been flooding from European chancel­
leries in recent weeks, but has con­
vinced many observers that the na­
tions have definitely discarded the
“truce of 1919” and are marching
straight toward another conflict
Actually the situation does not
warrant the fever of fear that has
been aroused. Germany has no desire
to start a war. In a military sense
the security of those who fear Ger­
many is greater today than it was a
year ago. The Austrian tinder box
has been damped if not removed.
France has again brought to her side,
in more or less binding alliance, Brit­
ain, Rural* and Italy. And these for­
mer allies have all enlarged their
military machines.
A ring of steel
has been forged around Germany.
Moreover, the present announce­
ment docs not in itself increase Ger­
many’s power. The conscription pro­
clamation only regularizes methods
of developing that power. Nor does
Berlin’s move destroy any protection
the peace treaties were supposed to
afford. The guarantees they contain­
ed rested almost solely on the power
and willingness of the former allies to
enforce them. They had small basis
is justice and their moral sanctions
were largely lost when those who im­
posed disarmament on Germany fail­
ed to carry out their own promises to
disarm.
The Versailles arrangements did
not make peace; they crystallized
wartime hates. That is the history of
treaties to end’wars. The treaty of
Utrecht, signed in 1713, sought to
right the balance upset by Louis
XTV and give Europe a new basis of
peace. It only evoked more con­
flicts. A century later at the Con­
gress of Vienna, the powers that had
thwarted Napoleon declared they
were making "an enduring peace
founded on a just redistribution of
political forces.”
But fear and greed and hate really
made that peace conference an agree­
ment among conquerors to divide the
spoil of the conquered. About that
treaty, Mr. Allison Phillips, the Eng­
lish historian, wrote before the World

“From this moral and political ob­
liquity of vision, doubtless, it comes
that Europe, Instead of finding a per­
manent settlement on a foundation as
firm as far sighted and disinterested
statesmanship could make it, has for
nigh on a century, amid wars and ru­
mors of war, been destroying piece­
meal the political edifice which at
Vienna monarch* and minister*
patched together.”
The Treaty of Versailles wa* better
than that in some respects. But in
it* attempt to keep Germany a sub­
ject nation it was at least as foolish
a* anything done by the benighted
Congress of Vienna.
It was Bis­
marck who said, “AH contract* be­
tween great states cease to be un­
conditionally binding as soon as they
are tested by the struggle for exist­
ence.” That ‘-s not a German concept
It has been exemplified in some mea­
sure and at some time by every ma­
jor power. And in the present illus­
tration, every signatory of the Treaty
of Versailles must share some respon­

trying again to make peace out of a
war. We must make peace in time of
peace. To do that we must cast out

the World war. For that the surest
method is to remove the resentment
of the vanquished; to make a more
magnanimous settlement than wa*
possible when hates had been inflamed
by conflict
The madness of what General
Smuts calls the endeavor “to cast out
the Satan of fear by calling ta the
Beelzebub of militarism” ought now
to be apparent Intelligent humans
should abandon it
This can be done if the thought of
the peoples can be raised, despite
these new excitements, above the nar­
row view which tries to make it ap­
pear that any nation has a monopoly
of the fear and hate and greed which
are at the root of wars. If it can be
realized that evil forces working ta all
nations, and not any race or nation,
lie at the bottom of our troubles, it
will be easier to display that mag­
nanimity which is today the most
practicable solvent of the war prob­
lem.
For in a situation where no people
want war. it is clear that, fear is the
primary cause. And never was there
a better time to remember that
"there la no fear in love; but perfect
love casteth out fear."—Christian
Science Monitor.

Guns For
One more object lesThe Asking, son, this time at Flint
Several boys got some
trinkets anil a little cash together and
traded it at a second-hand store for a
rifle. Then they got some ammuni­
tion. went under a porch and began
shooting with the rifle. Across the
street a woman was calling her five
little children to supper when a bullet
struck and killed her.
The oldest of the boys is fifteen;
others are nine and eleven years old.
It is said that the second-hand dealer
at first refused to sell the gun with­
out a parental permit, whereupon the
older boy got his brother to write
what looked like one, and which sat­
isfied the dealer.
The Flint officials say that they
can find nothing in the law that for­
bids the sale of rifles to children. Tne
only prohibition is against the sale of
revolvers and firearms with barrels
less than tiflrty inches long.
So apparently under the lax law as
to firearms, there is nothing to pre­
vent your little boy buying a rifle or
shotgun, if he can find somebody to
sell it to him. And teat apparently is
not difficult Even when the dealer
asked for a permit from the child’s
parents, he was satisfied with a crude
forgery and made no attempt to ver­
ify it* genuineness.
But the laxity in the sale of fire­
arms to adults is much worse than in
the case of children, because its ef­
fects are infinitely greater. For ev­
ery case where somebody is shot by a
child, there are scores of murders and
suicides committed with easily bought
revolvers. And they are still easily
bought, in spite of the regulations
that are nominally in force.
What
with mail-order sales, junk shops, pri­
vate sales and other loophole*, nobody
need be without a revolver if he real­
ly want* one.
The American people are easily
aroused on the question of interna­
tional disarmament
They think it
causes war.
If that view is right,
then does not private armament help

States the most murderous of all civ­
ilized nations?—Three Rivers Com­

Among those affected by the Case
proposals are: state highway com­
missioner from $7,000 to $6,000; se­
curities commissioner from $7,000 to
$4,000; utilities commissioners from
$7,000 to $5,000; justices of the su­
preme court, $8,000 to $6,000; circuit
judges, $5,000 to $4,000; and the sup­
erintendent of public instruction from
$6,000 to $5,000.
Similar attempts to "get at’’ the
high salaried state officers have, been
made in the past but got nowhere.
Department heads are too well en­
trenched behind a bulwark of patron­
age coercion to permit the success of
any such raid on their salaries. The
average legislator is inclined to think
twice before supporting measures of
this sort and thereby jeopardize the
chances of relatives and friends con­
tinuing on state payrolls. Senator
Case’s proposals without question
contain plenty of merit, but will like­
ly die in committee.
The first of the budget bills, indi। eating the approach of adjournment,
has come from the House ways and
means committee and provides for the
outlay of $20,175,053 during the first
fiscal year 1936-37 for general state
purposes. The measure includes $12,­
000,000 a year for welfare. Institu­
tional and departmental appropria­
tions will be made in separate bills
yet to be introduced

HOMEMAKERS

CORNER.

By Home Economics Specialists,
Michigan State College.
An obedient child is the ideal of
every parents but the discipline used
to obtain obedience is often a prob­
lem. A few guiding principles for
parents in disciplining their children
have been set up by Home Economics
child care specialists at Michigan
State college.
Discipline has two functions, one
to build up serviceable habits and the
other the modifying and changing of
unserviceable habits. The specialists
advise that parents should not think
how to break a bad habit but rather
what to substitute for it
The control of certain physical
functions, eating and sleeping habits
should be taught at an early age so
as to alleviate any problems at a lat­
er age. The child should be taught
early that there are times when he
must obey implicitly, for example, a
command to "stop" when crossing
streets.
When addressing a child, one should
avoid an autocratic manner, as chil­
dren are quick to resent domination.
A few well thought out commands
worth carrying out are preferable to
a number of them, and the parent
should see that these are fulfilled.
Before giving directions, gain the
child's attention, and then make the
explanation clear and simple, and if
possible, explain the reason for the
request. The child who has learned
to expect only reasonable requests
will be prepared to act in an emer­
gency.
Be interested in the child’s accom­
plishment and gain his interest by
showing him the value of the desired
action. Positive requests should be
given in preference to negative ones,
by giving a suggestion that will draw
the child away from the forbidden
act
Consider promises carefully before
making them and be careful to keep
them. Consistence is one of the fun­
damental means toward discipline.
One set of rules should be used at all
times, do not allow the child to do
one thing at one time which is forbid­
den at another.
Exnect obedience
when giving a command; the parent
should not let the child feel that be
is uncertain of his response.
Finally, parents should develop a
sound philosophy in regard to their
children. They should ask themsel­
ves what they wish to accomplish In
the long run, not in the immediate
future. They must realize that chil­
dren are growing and that the func­
tions of parents is to help to train
children to eventually live their own
lives.

recent cyclonic storm wrecked the
huge ensilage stacker at the Lake

ly of angle sheet steel which was
twisted probably beyond repair. The
north side of the viner shed wm forc­
ed out nearly a foot from the concrete

run well over two thousand dollars.

Our Christ.
I know not how that Bethlehem babe
Could in the Godhead be;
I only know the Manger Child
Has brought God’s life to me.
I know not how that Calvary's cross
A world from sin could free;
I only know its matchless love
Has brought God's love to me.
I know not how that Joseph's tomb
Could solve death’s mystery;
I only know a loving Christ,
Our Immortality.
—Harry Webb Farrington.
These Lenten days afford each of
us enlarged opportunity, the refueling
of deep spiritual experience. Even as
the poet could not explain many
things, yet he could experience God.
So are we true there are many mys­
teries which we cannot explain, but
to those who seek earnestly the en­
richment of God's presence through
faith in our Lord, these Lenten days
afford rich blessings.

VUttiog Lodge* To Confer lUnk

Lightning. thunder, rein, thrills,
action, drama! What would you do
at the point of a revolver? How
would you like to find a btaxl-ktainjd
hatchet? Can you Imagine a rainy
dreary night in an oW tavern with
only flashes of lightning to illumine
the chilling and spectral lobby and
reveal fantastic and gruesome spec­
tacles? Such will be thc seniors'
play, "Spookey Tavern,” which is full
of all the thrills of a lifetime.
Keep April —Ji and 26th open so
you can see the "spooks playing tag
with each other" or hear about the
veil of mystery shrouding around the
old mill tavern.
But not 1&lt;um interesting are the
characters themselves. Lon Hacker,
the owner of Spooky Tavern, is a ca­
daverous-looking fellow of 40 years,
with long, straggly, black hair streak­
ed with gray, riis harsh black eyes
are set in a pasty white face and his
leering mouth discloses that several
teeth are missing. Hacker's face is
hard and cruel, with an evil-looking
red scar across the right temple. He
has a rough, domineering manner and
a hoarse, rasping voice . Because of
a former fall when he encountered the
ghost woman, he is a cripple and has
to walk with a crutch.
The ghost woman is of course a
ghost—so no one knows much con­
cerning this apparition.
But you’ll
learn all about her and the superna­
tural world with which she is con­
nected. in the play.
Lucy Hacker, Lon's sister, and a
spiritualistic medium, appears to be
a "perfect model for a woman under­
taker." Her jet black hair is parted
in the middle, pulled back and bound
in a large loose knot. Her voice is
enough to give a person the creeps,
let alone her appearance.
Experience with Joyce and Florabelle Wingate all the terrifying mo­
ments of ghastly terror through
which their Negress mammy, Bcdelia,
thinks only of the •'Ha'nta,” and who
.would rather sit out in a mud-puddle
all night instead of staying in the
tavern.
Ralph Channing, a senior, doesn’t
quite believe in the ghost stuff, but
does think that the tavern is a good
hang-out for ghosts.
Terry Tanner, a junior, tries to be
a Sherlock Holmes, but seems to be
“kinda skeered."
One can’t help but sympathize with
Willie Worgle, who is only a stutter­
ing freshie and who goes through the
wretched night frantically trying to
“keep his heart from crowding out
his Adam's apple.”
Blackle Simms is a small smooth
crook who is shifty and furtive in his
actions.
Last but not least, is Farone, the
Creeper, who is sometimes worse than

It’ll be an entertaining evening, but
to appreciate the spooks you will

practically all chil­

ness one of the marvels of science
and take it so calmly. We discover
that sunshine is essential to the
normal growth of children and to
the health of adults. We find out
why. Other investigations discover
in the fish liver oils those chemical
elements called "vitamins,” and it
turns out that they are identical
with the elements manufactured in
our bodies under the influence of the
sun’s rays. Thus, when the short
day comes and children are deprived
of sunshine because of attendance
at school, we have at hand nature’s
own product and substitute.
I shall never cease to regard these
discoveries aa being among the
greatest triumphs of man. We
should rejoice in this knowledge
and we should use it, that coming
generations will be ever better fitted
to carry on the world's work. To
say that it ia one of our obligations
as parents and teachers is not put­
ting it too strongly. Sunshine is
essential and it is better than the
substitute. Tracking it in quantity,
we should rely upon the next best,

ways, get your physician's advice.

JUNIOR FARMERS
TO M. S. C. MAY 2-3
Junior Farmers’ week will be held
at Michigan State college May 2-3, it
was Announced.
This event is ex­
pected to attract between 1,200 and
1,500 students in Smith-Hughes agri­
cultural and vocational high schools
of the state for annual judging con­
tests and meetings of the Future Far­
mers of America.
Educational programs are being
planned for various college depart­
ments to supplement judging pro­
grams. Gov. Fitzgerald and Presi­
dent Robert S. Shaw of M. S. C. are
among the speakers invited to ad­
dress the junior agriculturists.

—There is to a band festival at Oli­
vet in May with 14 bands from the
smaller high schools of the district
invited for the event, the program of
which is a finale to the National Mu­
sic Week. It will take place in the
McKay Memorial gymnasium.
The
massed band is expected to be com­
posed of over 250 high school musi­
cians. Over 800 persons from the
surrounding district heard the pro­
gram played by a massed band of ov­
er 200 instruments at the annual con­
clave last year.

and think Umr:

There was a man who lived alone
Upon his own small hump;
To all who came along his way
He gave an awful bump!
"Let me alone,*’ he used to sa»y;
“Just mind your busi:&lt;ess, please.
Can't you see I’ve a dollar here.
That I must tightly squeeze?”
His wife died young, his boys left
home;
His girls—O where arc they ?
He lived for self, he had no friends.
When death brought his last day.
He passed, and no one shed a tear;
He went his own cold way;
Behold Che penalty he reaped,
A life dull, dark, and gray.
A cork bobs in the water pail;
Lift it—where is the hole?
Just so, no one will truly miss
A mean and selfish soul!

Among the Bible citations is this
passage (Ephesians 4:17-18): “This I
say therefore, and testify in the Lord,
that ye henceforth walk not as other
Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their
mind.
Having the understanding
darkened, being alienated from the
life of God through the ignorance that
is in them, because of the blindness of
their heart"
Correlative passages to be read
from the Christian Science textbook,
'.Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, in­
clude the following (p. 297): "Sick­
ness, sin, and death are the vague
realities of human conclusions. Life.
Truth, and Love are the realities t ot
divine Science. They dawn in faith
and glow full-orbed in spiritual un­
derstanding."

NHS Seniors Will
Give Final Play
“Spooky Tavern” To Be Presented On
April 25 And 26 At The Star
Theater.

Citizens—we are very sorry’ to be
disturbing you evenings, with the
sound equipment which is necessary
to practice our senior play, "Spooky
Tavern." We hope it will not annoy
you too much.
I wonder how many of us remem­
ber when, as lads and lassies, we had
to pass a cemetery on a dark night,
and we whistled to keep up our nerve.
However. Bedelia, Joyce and Florabel
Wingate's old maid aunt, believes she
would rather be at a cemetery than
at Spooky Tavern, for the former is
to her a much safer place than the
old mill tavern. If this be the case,
there’s plenty of fun in store for you
that you don’t want to miss.
Suppose we listen in on some of the
conversation that takes place in the
premises of the spectral lobby:
"There ain't been but one stranger
stay all night here since the murder
ten years ago. You can look in this
•old ledger and see for yourselves.
Here it is: The last person to regis­
ter was on April 26th over seven
years ago, a man by the name of Wil­
liam Bradshaw, and the next monun’
he was found dead in his bed. Heart
trouble, the coroner said. But I
think—’’
Willie: Whuh-whuh-what was that?
Bedelia: Lord have mussy! Sound­
ed like a spook a-laughin’.
Florabel—It came from that door.
Willie—No, it came from upstairs.
Bedelia: It came from the fireplace.
Here’s Lucy Hacker telling the
story that’s conected with the place..
Can’t you just see her with that far­
away look and hear her terrorstricken voice as she says:
"In the early eighties, this old tav­
ern was owned by a young woman
called Kate Aninalee. She lived here
alone with her young brother Frank.
In those days the tavern was on an
old wagon road, a short cut to the
Santa Fe Trail. Many a weary trav­
eler on his way west to seek his for­
tune, stopped here over night—and

LANSING
_ '
(By Frank D. Brown, Special Cor­
respondent.)
Events at the capital this week re­
called to the minds of many state at­
taches those stirring days back tn
1894 when “General" Coxey and hia
famous “army" set out from e&amp;stera
Ohio to take Washington by storm.
Perhaps less spectacular, but some­
what more gratifying in results was
the march on Lansing participated in
by approximately 500 coal miners
from the Saginaw valley district who
presented in person their demand
that the legislature pass the bill mak­
ing it mandatory for state institu­
tions to burn Michigan-mined coal.
The pilgrimage was not without
its comical features. Neither was ft
without its more serious aspects. Ar­
riving Ln town Tuesday afternoon, the
housing problem soon became acute as the shadows of night bore down
and the major portion of the huge
delegation proceeded to concert the
House and Senate into large-scale
"flop houses."
Sergeants-at-arms
were hard pressed to clear the speak­
er’s rostrum, the lieutenant gover­
nor's desk and the various committee
rooms of their human bulks in order
to permit the nightly renovation of
the two chambers.
The miners finally left Lansing in
an orderly fashion Wednesday after­
noon when the House, after affixing a
myriad of bewildering amendments,
passed the bill.
For them it was a
complete victory—for the legislators
it was just another laugh. As sent to
the governor, the measure means
practically nothing as far as aiding
the coal mining industry of this state.
There are so many “if's and and's”
written into it that the miners’ only
consolation seems to be the fact that
they compelled the lawmakers to take
speedy action for once.
Coupled with this influx of militant
citizens is the feud between the one­
time all-powerful Wayne county fig­
ure, John C. Gillespie. Even this in­
cident is not without its amusing
ramifications; all of which have added
zest to the developments of the week.
Gillespie is reported amongst the
missing while state and federal au­
thorities extend their search for him.
The seriousness with which his re­
ported threats are regarded by the
executive office can only be verified
by the presence of the state troopers
who loiter about the innermost sanc­
tum as a precautionary step against
the Detroit gentleman's appearance,
with gun in hand, to wreak vengeance
on the governor The ruction grows
out of a dispute over certain policies
of the liquor control commission; it
should be regarded as personal and
political, and of no great concern to
the taxpayers of Michigan.
Gover­
nor Fitzgerald is simply trying to rid
his administration of a certain unde­
sirable element that has attached it­
self to previous administrations. Ap­
parently he is going to “carry
through."
Senate and House calendars—those
daily bulletins which set forth the
work of the hour to be disposed of—
are growing by leaps and bounds. The
daily agenda in both houses is reach­
ing the proportions of no less than 50
items to be considered, debated and
voted on. The increasing volume of
work gives those of us who want
the session to terminate real encour­
agement that the end cannot be many
weeks in the offing. Night sessions
of the legislature ore now in vogue.
The supreme court has entered the
picture of specific exemptions from
the three-cent sales tax. An opinion
handed down by the tribunal during
the past few days denies manufactur­
ers exemptions for processing goods.
The ruling is regarded as having a
very definite bearing on the bill now
tn the Senate committee which would
place a dozen or so items of foodstuff
on the free list. Without a constitu­
tional amendment relative to the rule
of uniform taxation, it is feared that
the entire sales tax law might become
inoperative should the legislature
deem it advisable to pass the exemp­
tion measure now pending.
Senator Andrew L. Moore (R), at
Pontiac, chairman of the taxation
committee at the upper house and one
ot the real leader, ot thia sesatoo. han
proponed that the pom of the state
sales tax divtalon be enlarged BO w, to
permit discretionary action on the
part ot lhe division In allowing cer­
tain worthy axampUcns.

frowned upon. Umess Gov. Fitzger­

iously, has assured your correspondent
he

With the governor, it is purely a mat­

budget as against certain unreason­
able demands from "paid represenatives" of the school lobby . who have
been operating in Lansing ever sinoe
the writer first became interested in
state going-ons.
These final few weeks of the “Lan­
sing merry-go-round" are bound to
be weeks of much bewilderment to
the average layman. With budget
bills, other appropriation measures,
and what-not “popping" out of com­
mittees at the rate of a dozen or more
every day, it is little wonder that few
of us know what has really taken
place until the "statesmen" have re­
tired and there is ample opportunity
for sound evaluation.
Private interests ano personal ag­
grandizement characterize this ses­
sion like every other session since
time immemorial. The big criticism
that 1 have to offer is nothing more
or less than: Michigan (like every
other state, with Washington. D. C.f
included) has too many public ser­
vants “playing to the galleries" with
little or no regard for what the con­
sequences may be for the people
"back home” who perpetuate such a
condition by paying out their hardearned money in taxes.

amusing part of the oleo Lux argu­
ment is the fact that the farmer him­
self is one of the chief purchasers of
th.e substitute.
The small loan proposition which
caused Gov. Comstock no end of erabarransment two years ago, is still a
bone of contention. Efforts are being
made to pry loose from the Senate
committee tne bill which would re­
duce the rate of Interest on this type
of loan to one and three-quarters per
cent The small loan companies have
quite an effective organization in the
state and during the past two weeks
have undertaken to contact the news­
papers of the state as a means of
preventing the present bill from ever
seeing the light of day. Whether or
not they are successful in their ef­
forts remains to be seen.
The Democratic minority in the
Senate, led by Leon Case, is insistent
that the bill shall be reported out for
consideration on the floor. Threats
are even being made of discharging
the committee from further consider­
ation of the bill, but this is not likely
to pass beyond the domain of idle
talk. Discharging of a committee
happens only once or twice, if at all,
during a legislative session, so it real­
ly remains to be seen whether enough
pressure can be brought to bear on
the state affairs committee to "kick
out" the bill in question.
The Senators early in the week fin­
ally passed the Palmer measure which
would prohibit the so-called "heart
balm” suits. After deefating the bill
by one vote last week, the upper
house have given it a 20 to 11 ap­
proval.
Michigan State college and the
University of Michigan received the
"short end” of the deal in recommen­
dations made by the House ways and
means committee last Wednesday. In
recommendations for institutional re­
quirements made by the committee,
the state college would receive some
5300,000 less than their original re­
quest. while the university would be
pared down to the extent of $1,000,­
000. These amounts are on a yearly
basis for the next two years, both of
which are claimed by the college au­
thorities to be highly insufficient
The Senate has passed and sent to I
the House three measures. One, in-!
creasing the state board of registra­
tion of nurses from three to seven
members and requiring that register­
ed nurses be at least high school grad­
uates before entering their prelimin­
ary training period, was passed, 22 to
6. The opposition was apparently
based on the belief expressed by sev­
eral that the measure might hinder
the practice of practical nursing, des­
pite assurances to the contrary from
friends of the bilL It was stated that
at present candidates for training as
registered nurses are required to have
completed only two years of high
school study.
Another bill would expose to the
jeopardy of a 90-day jail sentence em­
ployers who fail to pay wages to their
employes, in addition to the penalty
of a fine of up to $100, already writ­
ten into the law.
The third measure was one requir­
ing self-insuring employers to pay an
annual fee of $50 to the state depart­
ment of labor and industry to defray
the expenses of filing acceptances.

to Camp Custer, which
this spring became CCC
district headquarters for southern
Michigan, was privileged to exhibit
more than average interest in one
provision of the $4,880,000,000 work
relief program. Whatever may be
one’s opinion of the worth of the pro­
gram, in its entirety, and of other
phases of government spending, the
city has been afforded proof that fed­
eral funds are being put to wise use
in the CCC.
Memories of 1917 and T8 have been
revived os Battle Creek, in recent
months, has watched the conditioning
of another “army” whose raw mater­
ial are the youths caught tn depres­
sion's grasp—youths who are building
health and a sane mental attitude in
camp.
Michigan’s CCC camps now number
59, of which five are camps for veter­
ans. At present 9,750 men are en­
rolled in the Michigan CCC. Under
the new act, 3,800 additional enlist­
ments may be accepted, and terms of
service will be liberalized to permit
re-enlistment by members who have
already seen CCC service.
In addition to the enlisted person­
nel there are approximately 1,000 ex­
perienced woodsmen engaged as for­
estry instructors, guides and super­
visors in the state camps.
The act also permits an increase in
the number of camps to approximate­
ly 90 in Michigan. The federal allot­
ment to the national CCC totals $600,­
000,000 under the new legislation.
A survey of camp personnel in all
states discloses that the average gain
in weight of CCC boys Is from nine
to 11 pounds in the first two months
of camp life.
In the sixth corps area, which in­
cludes Michigan, the average weight
gained per man in two months was
nine pounds. Nourishing food and the
outdoor life, coupled with hard work
and a vastly Improved mental condi­
tion, is given credit for building up

Bright Mental
Pictures.

"Hang bright pictures in your mind.”
So ran a line chanced
upon by a young woman seemingly
lost amid dark shadows of sorrow and
disappointment The advice appealed
to her imagination and she sought
earnestly to carry it out Each morn­
ing upon waking she made a brave ef­
fort immediately to fill her thoughts
with a bright outlook, to hang then*
bright pictures of joy, love, hope, suc­
cess, fruition. And throughout the
day she endeavored to retain them.
The result was a rift in the dark­
ness, revealing her ability to shed
about her a degree of joy and com­
fort, to appear a cheerful companion,
to banish partially the enveloping
shadows. But soon it became clear
that there was nothing basic, nothing
upon which to build against the
storms of human life.
However
bravely conjured up, these bright
views had no relation .to reality. They
were fleeting, transitory, illusive. Yet
the young woman was grateful for
even this ray of light
Later, the teachings of Christian
Science brought to her the revelation
of the permanence and goodness of
all reality. She found the following
words on page 264 erf the textbook,
“Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy,
filled with Illumination: "The crude
creations of mortal thought must fin­
ally give place to the glorious forms
which we sometimes behold . in the
camera of divine Mind, when the
mental picture is spiritual and eter­
nal Mortals must look beyond fad­
ing, finite forms, if they would gain
the true sense of things. Where shall

learned to walk In the light of spirit­
ual sense through gaining an under­
standing of Christian Science as dis­
covered by Mrs. Eddy. The pictures
draw by divine Mind are In their de­
gree as perfect an eternal as God,
who forms them. They depict the
loveliness, freshness, perfection, and
permanence of infinite Love, reflected
in spiritual creation. They afford a
vision of reality, moving in perpetual
harmony.
However unattractive,
however discordant, the view present­
ed by false, material sense, it fades
out before the spiritual understand­
ing which looks through the lens of
healing truth at “the glorious forms"
beheld “in the camera of divine kind"
(Science and Health, p. 264). The
remedy for these false concepts Mrs.
Eddy gives cm page 248 of Science
and Health: “We must form perfect
models in thought and look at them
continually, or we shall never carve
them out tn grand and noble lives.
Let unselfishness, goodness, mercy,
justice, health, holiness, love—the
kingdom of heaven—reign within us,
and sin, disease, and death will di­
minish until they finally disappear."
Upon taking up the study of Christion Science most people find that
many of their former views of life, of
man and of God, as well as many of
their habits of thought, must be re­
versed; that the mental pictures must
be brought into the focus of Truth, in
line with divine Principle, infinite
Mind. This study reveals that all
true thought and action begins with
God, pure Mind, who is maidfested in
His spiritual creation, inclusive of the
real, spiritual man. They find that in
order to make their thoughts and
lives conform to the one Mind, it is
essential, as Paul wrote Ln his second
epistle to the church at Corinth, to
cast "down imaginations, and every
high thing that exalteth itself against
the knowledge of God," and bring
"into captivity every thought to the
obedience of Christ." Who has not
found himself, upon the slightest pro­
vocation, rearing in thought pictures
of fear, suspicion, retaliation, doubt,
discouragement when he should be
laying low everything ‘that exalteth
itself against the knowledge of God"
and building his expectations on that
sure rock, Christ, Truth?
While the pictures ir the thoughts
of students of Christian Science
should be unfailingly bright, these
should not portray idle day-dreams,
ephemeral air castles. Rather should
they be resplendent with the fair
forms and bright hues of spiritual
reality, reflecting everlasting Love.
Such pictures never fade, are never
erased, for they reflect the perma­
nence of eternal Truth, enduring
Mind. They show forth the indestruc­
tible relations between God and man,
between the all-loving Father and His
spiritual offspring, and the conse­
quent indissoluble ties between the
children of Spirit These Mind-pic­
tures banish forever the false claims
of pain, sorrow, estrangement, be­
reavement disease, sin, and death,
and establish in cosnoiousness the
perpetual reign of the health, unity,
harmony, joy,, peace, intelligence, and
love . of God's universe of Spirit—

AH milk products are pasteurized
before mixing with the other ingred­
ients used in the manufacture of the
cream . "The mix" or the cream be­
fore it is frozen is stored until needed
in four large insulated five hundred
gallon glass-lined containers. When
ready for freezing the valves are op­
ened and the “mix" allowed to flow
to the freeze where It is lowered to a
temperature of 27 degrees at the rate
of 180 gallons per hour, one gallon
every 20 seconds. The cream is pack­
aged at a temperature of 27 degrees
at the rate of three gallons per min­
ute. After packaging the filled con­
tainers are placed in a room where
the temperature is around zero. In a
very short time the cream is frozen
solid. The company delivers milk
products with six refrigerated trucks.
Soda fountains and ice cream storage
containers are manufactured by the
workmen in the ice cream plant At
present Mr. Miller has about 560 cab­
inets in use.
Mr. Miller owns and operates seven
dairy farms. Milk is the main pro­
duct produced. All feed except a
small amount of bone meal is home
grown. The cows and young stock
arc fed com silage, com and cob
meal and alfalfa hay. All stock appered to be in better than average
condition.
Corn for silage and grain, alfalfa for
hay and pasture and soudan grss for
pasture are the only crops produced.
Mr. Miller stated that Soudan grass
often produced milk on pasture at a
very low cost.
Even the large number of livestock
on the seven farms did not consume
the feed produced last year. Mr. Mil­
ler has sold large quantities of hay
during the past winter. The dry sea­
son did not seriously affect the alfalfa
hay crop.
After visiting the plant and farm
bams, Mr. Moore exhibited two reels
of movies and Mr. Miller treated the
boys to all of the ice cream that they
could consume. Gerald Gardner re­
marked, "For once I had all the ice
cream, that I wanted.”

whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be
forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and
walk ?”
Correlative passages to be read
from the Christian Science textbook,
"Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, in­
clude the following (p. 404): "Heal­
ing the sick and reforming the sinner
are one and the same thing in Chris­
tian Science. Both the cures require
the same method and are inseparable
in Truth. Hatred, envy, dishonesty,
fear, and so forth, make a man sick,
and neither material medicine nor
Mind can help him permanently, even
in body, unless it makes him better
mentally, and so delivers him from
his destroyers."
POSTAL EMPLOYEES’
SALARIES RESTORED
Something's getting back to nor­
mal. The salary of postal employees
has been restored to the former lev­
el, beginning April 1. For the past
three years they have been working
under reduced salaries.
The greatest reduction came in
1933 and 1934 when the pay checks
were cut 15 per cent, and in addition
the men were required to take a 3•day furlough each month without any
remuneration whatever.
This

tinued for 12 months.
1934, the furloughs were dropped and
two-thirds of the salary reduction was
restored. For the nine succeeding
.months the pay was continued on this
basis, but on April 1, 1935, the re­
maining 5 per cent was dropped, and
now the clerks and mall carriers are
receiving the same base pay that Un­
cle Sam gave them in 1929.

O.N A December evening, in a telephone
exchange in Northern Michigan, an
operator sat at the switchboard. Calle
were few. It was the low ebb of the
day’s work. There was nothing to sug­
gest that soon this quiet office was to be
the scene of danger — and resolute
devotion to duty.
It began with that dread forerunner
of disaster—the smcU of smoke. Then,
from an adjoining building, came the
crackling of flames. Personal safety
now obviously lay in abandoning the
switchboard. And under the circum­
stances no one could be justly cen­
sured for putting self-preservation first.
The operator stuck to her post.
And the alarm, spreading rapidly
through the town, reached three other
operators who were off duty at the
time. Immediately—volunteers in the
face of danger—they hurried
to the exchange.

firemen fought flames close by,

while an adjacent wall collapsed in

This example of cglm courage, taken
from recent records, docs not stand
alone. Again and again, in crises large

And so the series comes to an end
with the consideration of our flag as
it is today. The Stars and Stripes,
with the conventional field of red and
white stripes, with forty-eight stars
in the union, arranged in six horizon­
tal rows of eight stars to the row.
As to the significance of our colors,
as to the meaning of the flag, let us
consider for a moment the words of
Henry Ward Beecher: “A houghtful
mind, when it sees the nation’s flag,
seos not the flag, but the nation it­
self, And Whatever may be its sym­
bols, its insignia, he reads chiefly in
the flag, the government, the princi­
ples, tho truths, the history’, that be­
long to the nations that sets It forth.
The American flag has been a symbol
of Liberty, and men rejoiced in it
The stars upon it were like the bright
morning stars of God, and the stripes
upon it were beams of morning light
As at early dawn the stars shine
forth even while it grows light, and
then as the sun advances that light
breaks into banks and streaming lines
of color, the glowing red and intense
white striving together, and ribbing
the horizon with bars effulgent, so, on
the American flag, stars and beams of
many-colored light shine out togeth­
er. And wherever this flag comes
and men behold it they see in its sac­
red emblazonry no embattled castles
or insignia of imperial authority: they
see the symbols of light.
It Is the
banner of Dawn."
Midshipmen's Practice Cruise.
The Secretary of the Navy has ap­
proved the itinerary of the Midship­

U. S. S. Wyoming at Annapolis on

Habit*.

Large areas in Michigan which
once were used as an excuse for dis­
couraging prospective settlers from
coming to the state have now become
some of Its highest priced lands and
have fostered a special type of agri­
culture known as muck farming, ac­
cording to the soils department at
Michigan State college.
Special crops, special cultural meth­
ods, and fertilization problems totally
different from those encountered by
upland soil owners confront the tiller
of muck. This divergence of interests
was acknowledged in the formation of
the Michigan Muck Farmers' associa­
tion several years ago. This group of
growers sponsor and encourage the
study of muck soil conditions and co­
operate with the college specialists in
research work.
Nearly all crops can be grown on
muck but most of the cultivated ac­
reage in this state is devoted to cel­
ery, onions, mint, or truck crops. One
of the problems of working muck is
to prevent its blowing away. Several
methods have been devised, one of the
latest is to plant a row of barley be­
tween every third row of cultivated
crop.
The college has 14 acres of muck
soil plots where all kinds of experi­
mental work is done to assist farmers
who own this type of soil. One day
each year, all growers are Invited to
inspect these plots, and the Muck
Growers association meets at the col­
lege during Farmers Week.
A “report of the last annual meeting
has just been printed.
This report,
which contains detailed information
on muck farming methods can be ob­
tained by writing to Dr. Paul M. Har­
mer, soils department, M. S. C., East

Sheep Need Pasture
For Low Cost Gains
Flock Owners Can Insure Late Sum­
mer Green Feed By Making Plans
This Spring.
Michigan sheep raisers who have
been depending upon June grass pas­
ture to carry their flocks through the
summer can increase the amount of
mutton produced by the flock by sow­
ing supplementary pasture this spring
according to the animal husbandry
department at Michigan State college.
Rape or sweet clover can be sown
in spring grains and will provide pas­
ture in the months when June grass
is dried out by heat and lack of mois­
ture. Only a few pounds of seed of
either plant is required to start a crop
which will furnish a lot of pasture.
Rape also can be sown In com fields
at the time of the last cultivation.
Michigan men who have been in the
Wolverine lamb growing contest for
the past few years have proved that
good pasture is one of the essentials
in growing out a profitable crop of
lambs. Alfalfa is the best pasture
but other kinds can be used success­
fully when alfalfa is not available.
Good pasture is necessary in econ­
omical mutton production and market
tapping lambs can be grown in four
months without supplementing the
pasture with grain. This can be done
only when the pasture sup plies con­
stant amounts of feed, as is furnished
by alfalfa or sweet clover.
If the pasture becomes too short at
any time to supply full feed for both
ewes and lambs, the lambs should be
fed grain in creep feeders. The lambs
also can be weaned at three months
and placed by themselves on good pas­
ture.
Sheep should be full fed before be­
ing placed on alfaL'a pasture and
should then be left there continuously.
Shifting the flock from alfalfa to some
other type of pasture and then back
again is apt to result in cases of
bloating.
Last year's champion flock master
in Michigan used alfalfa pasture until
it become evident that he would need
the second cutting for hay. He then
shifted the flock to stubble fields in
which sweet clover and rape had been
sown. This furnished satisfactory
feed the rest of the season.
Lambs can be run in com fields in
which soybeans or rape has been
sown and no damage will be done to
the com. The lambs will clean up the
pasture plants.
Second growth on
clover or timothy meadows furnish
some pasture but usually lambs on
this feed will need some grain in ad­
dition.

held on Saturday, May 25th. Wed­
nesday of last week, all county and
township wheat committeemen met
with Mr. Foster and went over the
plans for holding the referendum in
Barry county. Committeemen from
every section were present at this
centra] meeting.
The wheat referendum gives wheat
producers of Barry county and the
United States a chance to express
their wishes as to a future govern­
ment wheat program for 1936 and fu­
ture years. This is in keeping with
the Agricultural Adjustment Admin­
istration policy of always submitting
these questions to the producers be­
fore offering a contract The referdum plans a decided and carefully
taken vote. If the producers of the
United States decide that another
wheat contract should not be offered,
the AAA states that a contract will
not be worked up; however, if the
wheat producers decide that another
contract would be to their advantage,
then a new contract will be out by
early summer.
Voting hi this referendum is open
to bona fide wheat producers only.
However, both contract signers and
non contract signers have the privi­
lege Vf voting. This is done to get a
true and complete expression of
wheat farmers' wishes. An effort is
made to make the voting as easy and
convenient as possible in Barry coun­
ty in the hopes of polling as large a
vote as possible on this important
agricultural question.

Orchard owners sometimes inspect
vigorous fruit trees
one day and,
then, the next day find that the fol­
iage and opening fruit buds on the
trees have been mysteriously damag­
ed by some creature which has disap- .
The answer to the riddle, according
to the entomology department at
Michigan State college, is the climb­
ing cutworm, which climbs the trees
at night, feeds, and descends to seek
a hiding place before dawr.
Thia
habit of climbing trees can be used to
control the creature.
Bands of some substance coated
with a sticky material will trap the
insects as they climb and usually will
prevent any damage to the trees.
Poison bait can be used to kill the
cutworms, which will reduce the num­
bers having a chance of growing to
maturity and causing trouble the fol­
lowing year.
The poison bait can be prepared by
thoroughly mixing one bushel of bran,
one-half gallon cheap molasses, one
pound of white arsenic, and a little
water. Two or three ounces of ban­
ana oil should be added to the com­
pleted mixture. Do not use parts
green or arsenate of lead in mixing
the bait
The bait should be scattered thinly
on the ground in areas where the cut­
worms are numerous. Animals and
birds can not be Injured by the bait
unless it is thrown out in lumps.
Bands used to trap the wpftas
should be inspected regularly Lt be
certain that they have not become
coated with windblown dirt, or have
become partially detached so the
worms can pass without being caught.

—One hundred pupils of the'Port­
land public schools were finger print­
ed at the request of school authori­
ties, who secured permission of par­
ents last year for finger printing of
most of the Portland students then
in order to provide better identifica­
tion records for them. The 100 who
left their finger signatures with the
deputies last week included pupils
missed last year and some who had
advanced to a higher grade. The
printing has been done only of pupils
from the middle grades upward.

—Hastings high school placed first
in the oratory contest .held in connec­
tion with the district meeting held at
Central auditorium there. Miss Doris
Shute, valedictorian of the graduat­
ing class, was first in oratory and
Philip Proud of Dowagiac placed sec­
ond. In declamation and extempore
contests, Margaret and John Horn­
beck of Klamazoo Central high school

THIS WAY UES
DISASTER ______
Excessive Federal restrictions, unregu­
lated competition, the depression, have had
their way with America’s railroads.

Today the public views the plight of
the lines with awakening understanding
and broadening concern, and there is grow­
ing alarm that close by may be stalking the
ominous specter of government ownership.
Disastrous as would be federal usurp­
ation of rail control, might it not be the
signal for that final economic calamity—
the socialization of all industries?
Under present policies and conditions
could government have done better with
the railroads than has private management?
Could government, in the future, do as well?

Memories of America’s War-Era rail
management are too fresh, too painful; the
strangely similar results of like policies in
other countries are too current, too repug­
nant to blind the thinking to government
ownership’s deficiencies and undesirabilities.
Simple sanity in transportation policies
will solve the railroads’ problems, while
their seizure will only breach the walls
which guard private industrial initiative
against all-engulfing socialization.

Michigan’! delegation in Congress
should so be advised.

Among the Bible citations is this

righteousness shall reign in life by
one, Jesus Christ.”

“Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, in­
clude the following (p. 470): "The
relations of God and man, divine Prin­
ciple and idea, are indestructible in
Science; and Science knows no lapse
from nor return to harmony, but holds
the divine order or spiritual law, in
which God and all that He creates are
perfect and eternal, to have remained
unchanged in its eternal history."

It is a tribute to modern telephone

It is now accepted as a matter of

the muffled shot.
However, when the parents return­

Fifteen minutes later a five year old
cousin found him slumped in a closet,
where he had fired a shot through his
heart an hour earlier.
Neighbors attributed OrTey’s act to
worry over family troubles.
They
described his parents as kind and

LANSING
(By Frank D. Brown, Special Cor­
respondent.)

To adjourn or not to adjourn—this
is the question of the moment con­
fronting the legislature and the gov­
ernor, causing the latter no little con­
cern. Democrats and anti's are pres­
sing their demands for a recess until
August or September; purely a poli­
tical maneuver although ostensibly
for the purpose of considering legis­
lation necessary to carrying out the
PWA program of the federal govern­
ment once Congress has indicated just
what will be required of the several
states.
Gov. Fitzgerald, on the other hand,
has signified his intention of calling a
special session in event the present
session adjourns without satisfactor­
ily disposing of the tax relief ques­
tion. The probability of such a thing
is rather remote as matters now
stand. However, shuddering at the
newspaper reports of a planned cam­
paign to remove Murray D. VanWag"
oner, state highway commissioner,
from office. Democrats are showing a
determination to block an attempt of
this kind by the recess route rather
than the adjournment course.
Undoubtedly there is plenty of fire
from whence comes all the smoke,
nevertheless, the governor’s office ex­
plicitly denies that any thought has
been given th the possibility of plac­
ing VanWagoner on the shelf. Spokes­
men of Gov. Fitzgerald have express- *
ed sheer surprise at such reports and
are now wondering how a rumor of
that kind could ever have been start­
ed.
»
Comment on the Governor’s radio
address of a week ago continues. As
time passes, it becomes more and
more certain that the rank and file of
citizens are supporting him.
In the
several legislative districts that your
correspondent has chanced to visit
during the past week there appears
a very definite opinion against those
solons who have found it expedient
to align themselves with the oppon­
ents of the administration. The trend,
if I may be permitted to judge it, is
decidedly in favor of the governor
and what he is endeavoring to do in
the way of reorganizing the state
government and placing it on a sound
basis.
The governor’s proposal to reorgan­
ize the state welfare structure—a
highly controversial subject with the
Democrats of the legislature and until
this week thought to be a dead issue
—now shows Indications of being re­
vived. Despite protests from Wash­
ington .the lawmakers still may fol­
low the “front office" recommenda­
tions and pass the measure which
will consolidate all welfare activities'
under one departmental head and
thereby effect a healthy saving to the
taxpayers of the state.
There is one threat, however. That
is, that the federal authorities will
set up their own relief organization
in Michigan and leave the state to
shift for itself.
The income tax proposal continues
to make the headlines. As a substi­
tute for the Holbeck bill passed by
the House earlier in the session, a bill
providing for a one and one-half per
cent uniform income tax has found its
way out of Senate committee. Spon­
sored by Senator D. Hale Brake (R),
of Stanton, the measure assures in­
creased exemptions over the Holbeck
bill. Unmarried persons would be al­
lowed $1,500 exemption annually;
heads of families, $2,500; and $300
annually for each dependent.
Bills of this kind mean nothing,
however, as the governor has already
expressed himself as determinedly
1 to any and all forms of new
taxation.
In the closing days of the session,
the legislators are now turning ser­
iously to the question of tax delin­
quency.
Senator Andrew L. Moore
(R), Pontiac, who is reputed to ba
one of the largest holders of tax de­
linquent land in Oakland county, is
the motivating force back of the ma­
jor bills to cancel interest and penal­
ty chargee, and continue the mora­
torium of tax payments.
Two bills proposing to slash an es­
timated $6,000,000 a-year from the
state’s Income have made their ap­
pearance in the Senate. The mea­
sures, providing exemptions from the
sales tax, have been adopted by tte«
House. In case they meet with

were tall and strong, and walked with
courage. And when the way was
hard, they helped their mother; and
when the way was rough, they lifted
her, for she was as light as a feather;
and at last they came to a hill, and
beyond the hill they could see a shin­
ing road and golden gates flung wide.
And the mother said: "I have reach­
ed the end of my journey, And now
I know that the end is better than the
beginning, for my children can walk
alone, and their children after them.”
And the children said, "You will al­

when you have gone through the
gates."
And they stood and watched her as
she went on alone , and the gates
closed after her. And they said: "We
cannot see her, but she is with us
still. A mother like ours is more
than a memory. She is a living pres■ ence.”

LANSING
(By Frank D. Brown, Special Cor­
respondent.)
A certainty now exists that shortly
after this week’s column reaches its
readers that the 58th regular session
of the Michigan legislature will be­
come a matter of history. The com­
ing week is expected to produce a
much welcomed adjournment and
thereby finis will be written to a rec­
ord which in practical accomplish­
ment has meant little or nothing to
the people of the state. This legislaure like its predecessor has been em­
broiled in political and patronage
squabbles to such an extent that the
quality of jvork turned out has suffer­
ed materially. This session will prob­
ably be remembered for some years to
come as the "do-nothing’’ session; a
serious indictment of the private and
political interests that have been in
the saddle and have ridden high while
it lasted.
The Senate early in the week adopt­
ed a resolution setting May 23 as the;
date of adjournment The resolution ‘
was transmitted to the House where
an attempt was made to give it im­
mediate consideration. It was, how­
ever, shunted to the House rules com­
mittee where it has remained pending
action on certain important bills in­
cluding the PWA enabling bills de­
manded by the Democrats.
Indica­
tions are that the resolution will make
its appearance early next week and
while the actual date may be altered
by a few days, it is now conceded
that the session will not continue
much beyond the 28th.
Efforts to effect a recess rather
than an adjournment have been aban­
doned by the Democratic leaders in
the House, who a week ago were
quite active in stirring up sentiment
in favor of such a procedure. The past
week has brought about the surface­
healing of some of the sore spots
which existed between the governor,
the Democrats and the insurgent Re­
publicans. Lieut Gov. Tom Read and
his coterie of "young" Republican
Senators have sought to make peace
with the executive office and for the
first time during the session there ap­
pears to be a semblance of unity and
harmony among the several factions.
Though too late to do any good, evi­
dently there is a desire to part as
friends.
Continuing his efforts to keep leg­
islative appropriations within the
scope of anticipated revenues, Gov.
Fitzgerald has sent a special message
to the lawmakers pointing out that al­
ready more than eight million dollars
has been voted over and above all
possible income for the next biennium.
Determined to balance the budget, the
executive intimates that if necessary
he will exercise the full extent of his
authority. This is taken to mean
that he will veto certain appropria­
tions if necessary to fulfill his earlier
pledges of curtailing governmental ex­
pense and thwarting the levying of
new taxes.
The controversial and much discuss­
ed school-aid bill which has occupied
the center of the stage almost from
the start of the session is now only
one step removed from becoming law.
Both houses have finally been able to
agree on its many complex provisions
and have laid it on the governor’s
desk for his signature.
In its final form, the measure pro­
vides for a $22,500,000 appropriation,
a figure half way between that pro­
posed by the governor and that insist­
ed upon by the school people of the
-state. Although the sum is two and
a half million over that which Gov.
Fitzgerald declared would be the
maximum amount he would approve,
it is believed he will sign IL
&gt; Among the provisions of the mea­
sure are the following:
1. Provides for an appropriation of
336.040,000 for 1935-36 less the pri­
mary fund estimated at $13,800,000
to $14,400,000.
2. Provides for an appropriation of
$37,400,000 less the primary fund for
1936-37.
3. Sets up a continuing appropria­
tion for each year thereafter of $38,000,0b0 annually lees the primary
fund.
4. Requires local units of governhalf mills to come under the benefits

5. Sets aside 11 per cent of the to­
tal appropriation yearly as an equali­
sation fund to help needy districts

High officials at Washington as­
serted that the government in plan­
ning to take command of relief ad­
ministrations in the states by July 1.
Most of the present state relief direc­
tors probably will be retained, it was
said, but they will be responsible to
Washington Instead of to the gover­
nors. Declining to be quoted by
name, the officials who forecast this
change in policy said that recent con­
troversies with several of the states
were "partly*' the reason for its adop­
tion. Another explanation given was
that the centralization of relief forces
would provide a more responsive or­
ganization to speed the $4,000,000,000
work relief drive just now getting
under way.
"It will be a change in
form rather than substance," one of­
ficial said. He recalled that control
of the bfllion-dollar civil works ad­
ministration campaign slightly more
than a year ago was centralized in the
capital. The relief reins in several
states already have been taken into
the hands of federal authorities. Re­
cently ' the relief administrator has
been engaged in an intensive effort to
make various states levy "adequate"
taxes for the benefit of the destitute
unemployed. He cut off the flow of
federal money into Illinois when that
state’s legislature failed to meet his
demands, and refused once more to
send money into Illinois unless it con­
tributes $3,000,000 a month.
A re­
port compiled by Hopkins at the re­
quest of the Senate provided Insight
into the difficulties he has encounter­
ed in trying to force states to raise
certain sums for relief. "It is not the
function of FERA to dictate within
states to what standards of living
they shall adhere," the report said.
“Nevertheless, when in the estimation
of the administration the state is
making inadequate efforts to meet its
responsibilities he may withdraw fed­
eral funds.”

Barry Co. Fair To Fea­
ture Barry Exhibits
AU Outside ProfeMlomU Exhibitors
Are To Be Barred, According To,
Fair Board.
The 1935 Barry county Fair will
feature exhibits from Barry county
residents only, according to a recent
announcement by the Fair Board.
County Agricultural Agent Footer,
who is a member of the board, has
strongly favored this action. He has
found in his acquaintance with live­
stock breeders over the county the
past five years, that many felt that
they could no afford to show at their
own county Fair because of the pro­
fessional competition from outside the
county. These breeders reason that
their livestock is of good enough type
and quality to stand this outside com­
petition, but that they lack experience
and training in the show ring and
sometimes a little finish on the ani­
mals.
The Barry county Fair Ca for the
benefit of Barry county’s agriculture.
The greatest good for our agricul­
ture can come with our own county
producers exhibiting. If the barring
of outside professional exhibits will
bring out our own exhibitors, Mr. Fos­
ter feels this ruling will be well
worth while.
Barry county has a large number of
small herds and flocks of quality live­
stock.
Many of these herd owners
have already agreed to show at this
year’s Fair. People attending the
Fair are assured of viewing a nice
sized exhibit of Barry county quality
stock. Even though the.outside herds
will not be present, a quality exhibit
will be on display.

People in the county will have a
genuine interest in the judging of ex­
hibits, as exhibits will be coming in
from nearly every section of the
county.. Every fanner attending will
know of some neighbor who has an
exhibit in which he may be interested.
Foster feels that this one feature
alone will add materially to the coun­
ty's interest in its Fair.
The Fair Board is making every ef­
fort possible within reasonable ex­
pense, to make this Fair enjoyable
and educational to everyone in the
county. It is planned to truly be a

This year marks the twentieth
anniversary of the opening of tele­
phone communication across the
continent For It was just twenty
years ago that the human voice first
spanned the more than 3,009 miles
between the Atlantic and the Pa­
cific, and trancontlnental telephone
service, long the dream of the tele­
phone engineers, became a reality.
The event also marked tbe be­
ginning of another era in the history
of the telephone; for with the unit­

Coasts by wire, another and a
greater dream engrossed the tele­
phone engineers: the uniting of the
entire world by telephone.

th e wire. Four hard-drawn copper
wires .165 inch In diameter, were
run side by side for the entire dis­
tance. One mile of a single wire
weighed 435 pounds, the weight of
the wires in the line being 5,920.000
pounds, or 2,960 tons.
The second transcontinental tele­
phone line was a southern route by
way of El Paso and Los Angeles,
and was completed in 1923. The
third was a northern line which
was opened to public service fn
1927 and, proceeding west from
Chicago, passes through Minneapo­
lis, Fargo, Bismarck and on to Seat­
tle. The fourth is by way of Kansas
City, Albuquerque and Los Angeles
and was constructed to supplement
the central and southern routes.
Now a Nstlon-Wlde Service
The first transcontinental line
provided two circuits to San Fran­
cisco. Today, there are actually 125
circuits which can be brought into
use between New York and San
FranciSco, if needed, and their num­
ber can be increased at any time as
a result of the application of carrier

HOMEMAKER'S CORNEIL

By Home Economics Specialists,
Michigan State College.
With spring time, comes the need
for cleaning and storing the woolen
blankets. Tbe wise housewife cares
for her blankets so they do not have
to be washed every year. A strip of
light weight attractive cloth about 16
inches wide over one end of the blan­
kets will serve to protect them from
soiling. Frequent airings and brush­
ings with a soft brush will keep the
blanket in good condition.
However, washing is a necessity
sooner or later. First, advises Miss
Julia Pond, home management spe­
cialist at Michigan State college, Im­
merse the blanket in clear, lukewarm
water at a temperature between 110
to 115 degrees F., then transfer to a
soft suds which has been prepared be­
forehand from neutral soap well dis­
solved. The suds are made from a 1
per cent soap solution, that is one
pound of high grade neutral cake
soap, or slightly less if powdered, to
12 gallons of rain water. The tem­
I perature should be between 110 and
115 degrees F. Agitate the blanket
gently with the hands in the suds for
15 to 20 minutes, then transfer to a
second lukewarm soft water rinse,
with temperature about 5 to IQ de­
grees colder than the first one.
When lifting the blanket from one
bath to the next, care must be taken
not to allow it to become stretched
from the weight of the water. A
wringer may be used to extract the
water from the last two rinsings, pro­
viding the rollers have been loosened
■to prevent creases and flattening of
the nap. Before spreading ovfer the
line to dry, it would be safer to let it
drain and partially dry in the fold of
•a sheet securely pinned on the line.
This prevents stretching and uneven
drying.

Grocer: Well, Madam, I never
heard one complain.

For the sake of necessary brevity, T
can only mention a few of the many
things that Mrs. Burnette and I are
:
Amsterdam,
Holland, a delightful city
•
in a most picturesque setting.
Employing a guide, we went out. to
.visit the whole "Dam” family—Volendam, Monnikendam. Edam. Tandam;
■Zanndam, Rotterdam, and many of
the other “Dam” cities of Holland and
;The Netherlands.
Edam, by the way, is the city from
which we get the famous Edam
cheese. And speaking of cheese, we
visited one of the typical Dutch farms
where cheese is made. The farmers
all take their cheese into a nearby
town on a certain day of the week
and on that day their cheese are sold
for both the domestic and the foreign
markets. For example, the little town
of Alkamaar is said to export over
ten million pounds of cheese a year.
The houses and barns., on a large
percentage of the farms are under
the same roofs. In visiting one of
these farm cheese "plants,” wo enter­
ed the front door into a hallway that
was about five by ten feet in size.
Straight ahead was the entrance to
the barn part, or stables where the
dairy cows were kept
To the left
was the door into the family living
room. Going into the stables we
found 20 head of x’ery fine Holstelns.
A square section in the center was
boarded up and there the feed was
kept On one side of this square the
cows were kept in stalls and on the
other side of the "bam” the cheese
making operations were carried on.
There were two stalls for the horaes
and there was no partition between
the horses and the kitchen. In oth­
er words the cooking was done in the
same room with the horses. We pass­
ed through the stables and the kit­
chen to the living quarters of the
•family. This arrangement of house
and bam is very common.

Iieginnlng to sell their product, wrap­

will be many years before they ap­

The Dikes.
It was keenly interesting to see the
dikes, with the cattle and sheep grazIng over this built-up land and the
farmers and the city dwellers living
by the side of the road, while just a
few yards away was the North Sea—
four or five feet above the level of
the farm lands, being held back by
these man-made dikes. For many
miles we drove along on top of a dike
with the sea lapping against one side
and the broad fields on the other.
I took some motion pictures of bi­
cycle jams in Amsterdam which re­
sembled some automobile traffic jams
on our busy street comers in our
home cities. In the city of Amster­
dam there are 230,000 bicycles in dai­
ly use. Over one bridge in the city
more than 30,000 cyclists pass in a
single day—economical transportation
with a vengeance!
I told my wife
that we must be extremely careful in
crossing the streets, for if we ever
were knocked over and run down by a
bicvcle, it would be impossible to
make a satisfactory explanation to
our friends back home for our stupid­
ity.

&lt;&lt;wail,
are
unnecessary
evils
whose numbers can be reduced to
bearable limits by destroying their
mopt obvious breeding grounds, ac­
cording to the entomology department
at Michigan State college.
Mr. Mosquito is a fine gentleman
who goes about the countryside in the
evening, humming a gay tune, and
quietig his appetite by sipping plant
juices. He carries a wireless anten­
nae which enables him to locate his
public menace of a wife if the screams
of her victims leave any doubt of her
whereabouts.
Mrs. Mosquito is just a pain in the
neck or other exposed part of the hu­
man atanomy. When she is not lay­
ing eggs to perpetuate her worthless
species, she is stabbing some one in
the back. Along with the pain and
nervous shock transmitted to persons
bitten, the mosquito deposits any dis­
ease germs she may have acquired
from previous victims. Malaria, yel­
low fever, and other diseases are
transmitted solely or in part by mos­
quitoes.
The duplicity of the female mosqui­
to is proved by her stealth in seeking
places to deposit eggs. They must be
placed in water which will not dry up
before the eggs hatch nor be disturb­
ed by winds that the larvae can not
come to tha surface to breathe or to
escape when they are ready to leave
the water as adults.
Applications of oil on still water kill
the mosquito larvae because they
must breathe at the surface, but peo­
ple who have placed oil on stagnant
pools about their homes are astounded
to find plenty of mosquitoes appearing
about the premises. These people be­
lieve that the story about pouring oil
on troubled waters is a lot of hooey.
They consider the oil wasted and
that the scientists who urged them to
use it are a lot of crack pots who
ought to be rolling hoops somewhere
out of the way of busy people. The
scientists are a long suffering people
who bear this unjust accusation with­
out re'ply^
The answer is that the insidious fe­
male mosquito has check-mated the
oil pouring program by laying eggs in
places where most citizens would nev­
er think to look for them. Tin cans
thrown out behind the smoke house
are greeted with glee by egg laying
mosquitoes, eavetroughs which fail to
drain are good incubators, water pots
in furnaces are accepted if they are
left filled with water after the fire
goes out. and cisterns and rain bar­
rels are refuges in time of trouble.
One of the pleasant facts about
mosquitoes is that there are several

eued victims. The bouse mosquito is
that pleasant beast which lies m wait
until you are ready to go to sleep and
then pounces on you.

a^nbushfcd waiting for you to retire.
All Michigan mosquitoes lay their
eggs in water and most of them trav­
el only short distances from the plac­
es where they, hatch.
They can be
controlled if stagnant pools are drain­
ed or coated with oil and all other
breeding places searched out and eith­
er drained or treated with an ail film.
Water tn cisterns can be coated with
oil without ruining the supply of soft
water. Tiny puddles of water in ruts
or in depressions can be filled.
An early start on the mosquito con­
trol campaign will save a lot of an­
noyance and may prevent the out­
break of serious diseases.

Condition* Improve
In Dairy Industry
Herd Owners Now Have Chance To
Get Back Money Spent For Feed
And Labor.
Further evidence that Michigan
dairymen are in an improved business
position is furnished by the latest re­
ports from state herd improvement
association records which show that
only one tested herd in four Michigan
counties failed to return feed costs or
more.
This does not mean that all of the
owners of the herds were making a
profit on their dairy enterprise, as
feed costs are only about one-half of
the total costs of milk production. It
is apparent, however, that the higher
receips from sales of dairy products
art enabling the owner of high class
cows to be a little more optimistic.
Only 2 per cent of the 12,186 cows
tested were culled out because of low
production during the month.
This
decrease in the culling rate is due to
the fact that higher prices enable the
,border line cow to show greater re­
turns for the feed and labor expended
upon her.
Seven per cent of all the cows test­
ed produced 50 pounds or more of
butterfat last month. Cows of that
quality enable their owners to bay
feed without having heart failure.
Use of pasture will also enable
dairymen to produce milk and milk
products more cheaply than has been
possible with the cows on dry feed.
Pasture conditions for the state have
been almost ideal during the early
months. Cool weather and plenty of
rainfall have helped pastures which
were seriously injured by last year's
• drought

Railroad Runs Right Through Famous - ' '
Laboratory Without Halting Research
Right: Part of the Bell
Telephone Laboratories,
showing a train passing
through Its second story
on the elevated freight
railroad on the west
side of downtown New
York City.

Above: Building the road bed. This
section of the Laboratories was so
constructed, several years ago, as
to permit this unique operation to
proceed recently without Interfer­

A two-track railroad which is

delicate researches carried on there
is one of the recent triumphs of the

Resting on concrete piers which
go down to bed rock, the New York
Central Railroad's elevated tracks
pass through parts of the second,
third, and fourth floors of the Bell
Telephone Laboratories building on
Washington Street, New York City.
So effectively have the tracks been
isolated from the building that oc­
cupants are quite undisturbed by
the passage of trains.
Allowed for In Construction

When the building engineers of
the Laboratories began to plan for
a new U-story building several
years ago, they knew that the rail­
road had assembled property to run
an elevated freight line along the
west side of Washington Street This
line now extends from the Thirtieth
Street railroad yards to a terminal
building occupying several city
blocks in the vicinity of Spring and
West Streets. After learning of the
railroad's requirements as to eleva­
tion, clearances, and the like, the
engineers designed the new building
so that at a later date two of its bays
could bo turned over to the railroad
without Interfering with elevator,
pipe, and wire services.
Some years later—in 1931, to be
exact—the railroad company’s oper­

The early battles of the Revolution
were fought under a variety of dif­
ferent flags, the most popular of
which were a yellow flag with a black
rattle snake and a white flag with a
green pine tree. On Dec. 13, 1775, a
committee recommended to Congress
the adoption of a flag with 13 red and
' white stripes and with a union com­
posed of the combined crosses of St.
George and St Andrew.
This flag
was never officially adopted by Con­
gress but became very popular and
was flown by the first American fleet.
In this flag the stripes represented
the 13 colonies and the union repre­
sented their dependence upon Great
Britain. With the Declaration of In­
dependence this flag was no longer
suitable and on June 14, 1777, Con­
gress adopted the present flag with
13 stars. The 13 stripes represented
the 13 colonies. The stars represent­
ed a new group of states appearing
on the universe.
Originally these
were placed in a circle as a symbol
of eternity.
Red represented cour­
age, white purity, and blue loyalty.
The first armed vessel to fly the new
flag was the Ranger, commanded by
John Paul Jones. The Ranger first
flew the flag in November, 1777, and
it was first saluted by a foreign pow­
er when the Ranger entered Nantes,
France. It was not until 1887 that
the stars and stripes was carried in
he field by all branches of the army.
Before this time the flag was flown
over garrisons but the troops carried
the national colors which consisted
of the American eagle on a blue field.
The flag which inspired the writing of
the Star Spangled Banner had 15
stars and 15 stripes, as at that time
(1814) there was a stripe for every’
state in the Union. On April 4, 1818,
Congress passed a law that the flag
should contain only 13 stripes, repre­
senting the 13 original states, but
that the canton (or field) would have
a star for every state in the Union.

�THE NASHVILLE NEWS,

Washington Letter
front this District.)
Says Congress Favors New Bonus
Plan. Would Pay Soldiers
At One*.

Shattering ail precedents, the Pres­
ident, May 22, appeared before the
Congress to deliver In person his veto
of the "Bonus Bill."
Greeted enthusiastically, he made
a strong presentation of his view of
the measure. His principal argument
was directed to the point that the
payment in new money was the be­
ginning of inflation, forgetting for the
moment that he was already on that
road, due to his devalution of the dol­
lar.
. He made a strong plea for the ne­
cessity of economy and the limiting
of appropriations by Congress and in
this, beyond question, he was right,
but he overlooked the fact that it is
his program, his advisers, which have
plunged us so deeply into debt and
that he and his supporters are those
who forced through the four billion
dollar bill and that, nowhere, so far as
the average person can learn, has the
administration practiced economy.
Many of us, no doubt many of the
.veterans, would go with him in his
argument that the bonus is not due
and should not now be paid because
of the depression, were it not for the
fact that his administration is engag­
ed in wasteful, unsound experiments,
which are leading directly toward in­
flation, which he says he desires to
avoid.
Perhaps the action of the House in
overriding his veto, although that
veto was sustained in the Senate, will
bring home to him the fact that, if
the administration is, under the guise
of "getting us out of the depression,"
to spend untold sums, much of which,
as expended, is used to Influence vot­
ers and to keep a privileged class in
office, the people will insist that a
part at least of htis inflationary mon­
ey go to the veterans.
I do not believe in inflation. No
more do I believe in the borrowing of
vast sums by issuing bonds and pay­
ing interest. I do believe in a cur­
tailment of public expenditures and
there is no doubt but that huge sums
already appropriated could be used to
assist in paying this bonus, if politi­
cal office-holders, rendering no useful
service, were cut off the payrolls.
The Congressional Record of yester­
day discloses at page 8265 that one
George J, Lincoln, Jr., of Philadelphia,
is an office-holder in six different code
authorities and that he is drawing a
total salary, from the alx. because of
the operation of these codes, of $48,­
000 per year. Yesterday, according
to the papers, he was in Washington,
.attending the conference which will
urge us to continue these codes in
existence.
With the veto sustained, another
effort will be made to pay the bonus
and the plan which seems to be find­
ing favor among many members is
that of paying it at once out of the
four billion dollar appropriation.
Many are in favor of this because they
do not believe that the President or
his advisers should have unlimited
authority to spend so vast a sum,
much of which, in view of previous
expenditures, is certain to be wasted,
some of which is sure to be used
merely for political propaganda.
The President made another state-'
ment which is not in harmony with
our previous thought. That was ex­
pressed when he said:

other reason, should be accorded do
treatment different from that accord­
ed to other citizens who did not wear
a uniform during the World war."
Heretofore, veterans have always
been, because they were veterans,
■ given a preference and most of us will
agree that World war service does en­
title the giver to" consideration over
those who did not render such service.
Strange as it may seem, the pass­
age of bonus legislation .may awaken
those who have been in favor of un­
limited appropriations to the very
real dangers suggested by the Presi­
dent and may, In the end. not only
discharge the obligation due the vet­
erans, but put the brakes on the ex­
perimental spending orgy and in­
augurate the program of a safe,
sound business administration, al,though this is a hope, rather than an
expectation.

VANDEVENTER WON
OVER 60 APPLICANTS
Some important changes will be
made in the faculty in our local
schools the coming year. Superin­
tendent Paul Kingman, who has been
connected with the schools for a num­
ber of years, had decided to end his
work as a teacher, and the board re­
ceived applications from over sixty
persons to fill. his place. From this
number, Mr. VanDeventer. principal
of the schools at Nashville, Mich., has
been employed. He is a married man
with a number of years experience as
a teacher, is highly recommended and
has a fine personality. Principal
Lawrence Decker will be connected
with the schools at Gobles and his
place has not been filled as yet. The
other teachers have been offered their
same positions for another year. Com­
mencement exercises will be held
next week Thursday evening at eight
o’clock at the high school auditorium,

Highway Commissioner Murray D.
VanWagoner has announced that a
320,600,000 highway improvement pro­
gram for Michigan has been author­
ized by federal authorities. VanWag­
oner had just returned'from Washing­
ton. The new allocation, w’hich in
effect takes the place of the former
$23,000,000 allotment, calls for the
expenditure of $13,000,000 under fed­
eral work relief program and $7,600,­
000 tn federal aid projects. Half of
the latter amount must be paid by
the state. The new program provides
for county road improvements with
federal funds for the first time.
VanWagoner said he plans to treat
roads of the type with oil, dust proof
•surfaces . The program contemplates
^pending about $6,700,000 for railroad
grade separations.
Federal regula­
tions require that 90 per cent of the
labor employed be taken from relief
rolls. The federal government de­
mands that for each $1,400 spent one
man must be employed for a year at
eight hours a day, five days a week.
No work may be done in cities with
direct federal funds.
VanWagoner
said selection of the projects will be
started immediately and he hopes to
start advertising for bids within two
wagks after federal acceptance of the
improvement program.
Fifteen thousand com-hog reduc­
tion contracts are pouring into the
offices of the department of agricul­
ture for final auditing before they are
forwarded to Washington to be paid.
An augmented staff working at top
speed is just able to keep abreast of
the work, Verne H. Church, crop re­
porter, said. Although contracts will
go into Washington as fast as they
are audited and approved. Church
said, checks for the 1935 program will
not begin to arrive until much later.
Church explained that the 1935 pay­
ments will be held up until all of last
year’s checks have been mailed from
the national capital.
He explained
that the Washington staff is writing
40,000 checks a day, trying to catch
up on the 1934 work, and it still will
be some time before this is accom­
plished. About 80 to 85 per cent of
the contracts coming into the offices
at Lansing are from farmers who par­
ticipated last year and are following
out programs identical with those of
1934, Church said. Only about five
percent, he added, come from persons
who did not participate last year. The
others come from last year's partici­
pants who are farming different land
this year.
-----Governor Fitzgerald has accepted
the resignation of A. R. Glancy of
Bloomfield Hills as chairman of the
state planning commission. Glancy
had directed the drafting of all Mich­
igan PWA projects for Washington.
A statement from the governor's of­
fice said "Glancy stated he was con­
vinced his work had been futile and
he sees no chance of getting any­
where." In a letter to Governor Fitz­
gerald Glancy wrote: "I have been
hoping against hope that the federal
administration would in some manner
use the state planning commission set­
up. I am now convinced that it will
play no part in the allocation of the
$5,000,900,000 fund. 1 have tried un­
successfully to find out just how pro­
jects should be filed and urged. Dean
Mortimer E. Cooley, the head of the
PWA in Michigan, tells me he does
not have any official orders. Dr. Wil­
liam Haber (state emergency relief
director), representing Harry Hop­
kins, tells me he expects in the near
future to have some plan.”

The Thatcher school aid bill, which
.figured so prominently in the spring
campaign, and brought on sharp de­
bate in the legislature, is a law, bear­
ing the approving signature of Gover­
nor Fitzgerald. It was one of a doz­
en legislative acts signed by the gov­
ernor. Among them was the hotly
debated Dunckel-Baldwln bill, making
it a felony to advocate overthrow of
the government. The school aid bill
will provide Michigan’s public school
system with more than $22,000,000 a
year. The measure provides for $36,­
040,000 the first year and $37,400,000
the second year, each appropriation
to be reduced by wbat the state col­
lects for the primary school fund.
Friends of the school system sought a
net appropriation of $25,000,000 a
year, while the governor countered
with a proposal for $20,000,000. The
measure passed by the assembly rep­
resented a compromise.

THURSDAY, JUNE 13. 1935
A Big
Evidence accumulates that
“Break.” Governor Fitzgerald re­
ceived what sportsmen
might well call a-“break” when the
dying legislature put in his hands the
power to reduce legislative appropria­
tions and balance the budget Wheth­
er that break was due to skillful man­
euvering on the part of the governor
himself, whether it was an achieve­
ment on the part of administrative
leaders in the two houses, whether it
was a belated wave of statesmanship
within the ranks of House and Senate
membership, or whether it was a com­
bination of the several factors is not
particularly important It happened,
the governor inherited a great oppor' tunity and there is every reason to
believe he will take advantage of it.
That is good news for the taxpayer
who cares less for the politics involv­
ed than for his pocketbook.
In a recent statement the governor
had reiterated his campaign pledge
that he will balance the state’s books
during the next year and a half with
the revenues that have been made
available. Further than that he has
promised to make a monthly report
to the public giving an exact account­
ing on financial affairs.
Assuming performance fully in line
with the commitment, the governor­
ship has been elevated overnight to an
admirable position. Only a month ago
it looked as though the reverse were
true, that only through the medium
of a special session on the part of the
legislature coupled with skillful poli­
tical maneuvering and plenty of
strong arm work by the governor,
could he carry through a program
that would command prestige. Those
few words from the legislature giving
the governor power to reduce appro­
priation items, turned the trick.
Whatever Mr. Fitzgerald does in
the way of balancing the state books
by keeping expenditures in line with
revenues will only emphasize the leg­
islature’s refusal to assume financial
responsibility. It will strengthen the
argument that such power should be
given permanently to the governor’s
office as a means both of establishing
responsibility for campaign pledges,
■and of checking legislative irration­
ality.
*
Governor Fitzgerald did not show
himself to be a shrewd political strat­
egist when he committed himself to
an over-ambitious legislative pro­
gram in his inaugural address. The
legislature influenced in part of fac­
tionalism, In part by partisanship,
and in much larger measure by jeal­
ousy over political patronage, knocked
the governor’s program into a cocked
hat It would have been bad for him
had they not in the final act, handed
him a brand new hat—one much bet­
ter than he tossed to them on inau­
guration day.
The governor has expressed him­
self in favor of a system of civil ser­
vice for all state departments.
He
says political patronage as practiced
at present distracts the minds both of
executives and of legislatures from
the state’s larger interests. He sup­
ported the civil service measure which
failed of enactment during the session
just closed.
If he is able to balance the budget
by the exercise of tus new authority,
if he makes good on his promise to
report state finances periodically to
the public, and if he goes into the
next campaign committed to civil
service legislation he will have a
much stronger platform than the one
the legislature riddleci.—Adrian Daily
Telegram.

tofore kept the nation on an even keel
should be abandoned and give place
to a system of centralized power lo­
cated in the White House. His most
recent program announced Tuesday
which proposes to set up an organiza­
tion for the purpose of proving the de­
sirability of such a form of govern­
ment is added proof of his aim and
ambition. The likelihood is that when
the Congress assembles next January
it will have placed before it a resolu­
tion providing for the submission to
the states of a constitutional amend­
ment which will make 'possible this
centralization of power and that that
resolution will be backed by a mass of
data gathered in the meantime, tend­
ing to prove the desirability af such
a change. Then will come the great
test in which the sanity of the Con­
gress and the stability of the people
will be given in evidence.
Stripped of all verbiage and other
scenery, the question which now con­
fronts this nation is whether our gov­
ernment shall consist of three distinct
parts. Executive, Legislative and Ju­
dicial, or whether the power to make
and to enforce laws shall be central­
ized in the Executive department, up­
on vote or authority by the Legisla­
tive branch. How far such a vote of
authority may be extended has been
manifested in the last 18 months in
which Congress has .virtually abdicat­
ed its prerogatives, surrendering them
to the Executive only to be brought
up with a round turn by the Judicial.
With the Judicial department out of
the consideration, with the Legislative
department abdicating in favor o* the
Executive we should have just what,
they have in Italy, in Germany, in
Russia, a dictatorship under either
Communism or Fascism . To the peo­
ple generally it doesn't make much
difference which it is called. The re­
sult is the same. The power rests in
the dictator.
The battle will be the most terrific
in the history of the nations. It will
be the most important since the Con­
stitution was written. It will be the
supreme test of whether the United
States of America shall continue a
government by the people under the
Constitution or a government by a
dictator, all powerful and unrestrain­
ed by either Constitution br a Su­
preme court to interpret it . America
is today at the crossroads. Let
thinking people think.—Cranu Rapids

Manna. Probably no Bible episode is
more familiar than the one
which records that God provided man­
na for His people, the children of Is­
rael—a food suitable and pleasant,
during their wilderness need.
The details of this episode are fa­
miliar. The people's need was pre­
cisely met, for “he that gathered
much had nothing over, and he that
gathered little had no lack" (Exodus
16:18). Any gathered beyond the ne­
cessary quantity was valueless.

It is poetically referred to in Psalms
as "angel's food,” and a marginal re­
ference renders it "the bread of the
mighty." This story of unfailing pro­
vision has inspired many with immea­
surable confidence.
Later, Christ Jesus, the Way­
shower, gave a fuller understanding
of God, revealing Him as the loving
Father. He challenged certain Jews

"God the Preserver of Man" is the

Christian Science churches through­
out toe world on Sunday, June 16.
Among the Bible citations is this
passage (Matt 8:23, 24. 26): "And
when he was entered into a ship, his
disciples followed him. And, behold,
there arose a great tempest in the
sea, insomuch that the ship was cov­
ered with the waves: but he was
asleep. And he saith unto them. Why
are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?
Then he arose, and rebuked the winds
and the sea; and there was a great
calm."
Correlative passages to be read
from the Christian Science textbook,
"Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, in­
clude the following (p. 131): "The
mission of Jesus confirmed prophecy,
and explained the so-called miracles of
olden time as natural demonstration
of the divine power, demonstrations
which were not understood."

NAVAL NOTES.
Amrrtri Deretaf* A S«-Farta&lt; Bare.
The statesmen of Great Britain saw
many advantages in the colonization
of America, and as an inducement,
the colonists were offered religious
freedom in the new world and the op­
portunity to acquire land. These in­
ducements attracted many people but
the difficulties and hardships made all
except the most determined hesitate.
The voyages were made in small ships
scarcely larger than submarine chas­
ers. The ships were over-crowded,
had no means of ventilation and no
method of. preserving fresh food. The
voyages frequently lasted 3 to 4
months.
Scurvy was common and
epidemics of small pox and scarlet
fever were frequent. Piracy flourish­
ed on the high seas during this perlod and mutinies were not uncommon.
Navigation was uncertain; the chart.?
were unreliable; and there were no
lighthouses in America, sextants
were inaccurate- and vessels had no
method of determining the longitude.
The Mayflower sailed for Virginie,
but landed at Cape Cod; and many
colonists successfully braved the hard­
ships of the long voyage only to be
shipwrecked on the shore of their new’
country. However, the dangers of
the forest and the abundant supply of
fish off the coast soon attracted many
of the settlers to a life at sea. Also
poor roads and hostile Indians made
travel by land difficult or impossible
and consequently transportation of
freight and most travel was made by
water. The sea was more important
to the early colonies than the railroad
is to the modem village.
In NewEngland there was ample water pow­
er for saw mills and lumber could bo
obtained from the forests at almost
no cost Consequently ship-building
soon flourished and a large portion of
the population earned their living by
building ships or sailing them. With
the development of colonial manufac­
turing freight was transported to al!
ports of Europe; and the whales were
driven off shore, the New’ Englanders
pursued them further and further to
sea until colonial ships were operat­
ing from the Arctic to the Anarctic.
On the eve of the revolution, the col­
onies were building about 150 ships a
year. In 1775 Lloyds Register gave
British tonnage of shipping as 605,545
and colonial as 373,618.

WHERE

Governor Fitzgerald has announced
that a new fiscal system will be in­
stalled in the state government at
beginning of the fiscal year July 1.
He says he will use the almost dic­
tatorial power given him by the leg­
islature to place departments and in­
stitutions on a month to month basis
under rigid limitations prohibiting
spending more money than is avail­
able. He also promises monthly re­
ports to the public of the exact status
of state revenues and expenditures.
He will place every department and
institution on a basis 5 per cent be­
low the appropriations granted them
by the legislature, and the 5 per cent
reduction will be made effective right
down the line from top to bottom.
The governor said the state will
make a "real start" toward the estab­
lishment of a sound old age pension
system July 1.
"Old age will be accompanied by se­
curity,'' he stated. "This time there
can be no setback. Two million dol­
lars has been appropriated for the
pension fund and it is expected the
federal government will contribute a
like amount I know of no act that
will give me greater inner satisfac­
tion than signing the pension bill.”

Michigan crop prospects are very
bright as far as they can be deter­
mined now, according to Verne H.
Church, agricultural statistician.
The outlook for w’heat in the state
is for a crop 50 per cent larger than
last year. This is much better than
■conditions indicate for the crop in the
whole country where more than 13,­
000,000 acres were abandoned follow­
ing the drought hi the southwest.
About 46,000 acres more rye will be
harvested in Michigan this year than
last and the prospects are that the
yield will be more than a million
bushels higher.
Close pasturing last year failed to
permanently injure pastures, which
now are in excellent condition. Killing
out of new seedings of clover during
last year's dry season has made it
necessary to plant more than a nor­
mal acreage of emergency hay and
pasture crops.
The value of alfalfa on Michigan
farms was demonstrated by its ebility to withstand extremely adverse
, weather conditions. The acreage of
■this crop has increased from 74,000
! in 1919 to 891,000 in 1934. The condii tion of alfalfa is quite good this year.
I An unusually encouraging prospect
faces fruit grwers of the state as far
as yields are concerned. This condi­
tion may be changed by later adverse
conditions. Reports from southern
states indicate a larger peach crop
there than last year, California will
have a smaller crop, and the condi­
tions are unfavorable in the eastern
states from Virginia northward.

4-H Members Chosen
For National Camp
Four Selected For Trip To Washing­
ton Am Reward For Fine Work
And Leadership.
Two boys and two girls have been
chosen from the ranks of 4-H club
members to represent Michigan In the
ninth annual national camp at Wash­
ington, D. C., June 13-19, according
to the club department at Michigan
State college.
The girls are Jeanne Elizabeth
Mann, Tekonsha, and Amy Jean
Holmblade. Whitehall. Orlo Hilmer
Cartoon, Anvil Location, and Stephen
Wing, Alba, are the other winners of
this major award for past achieve­
ments in club work. A .G. Kettunen,
state club leader, and Miss Lois Cor­
bett, assistant leader will accompany
the four members.
Jeanne Mann has been in clothing
and food preparation clubs for five
years and has acted as leader for
younger girls in their club work. Some
of her accomplishments are making
dresses, a wool suit, canning 237
quarts of fruit, vegetables, and jellies
in one year, and preparing 71 different
food dishes. She has never lived on a
farm.
Amy Holmblade has belonged to
canning, food preparation, and cloth­
ing clubs. She has won trips to the
State Fair and to the Club Congress
In Chicago for excellence in project
work.
Stephen Wing specialized in grow­
ing certified seed potatoes and shows
an average production of 277 bushels
per year over a five-year period on
small plots. His ability to select good
spuds is proved by a first award won
at Chicago on a peck sample he ex­
hibited.
Orlo Carlson belonged to garden
and potato clubs. His club member­
ships extended over a period of seven
years. Orlo did not live on a farm
and grew his potatoes on a plot of
ground a mile from his home.
His
garden work was good enough to win
him a scholarship to Michigan State
as honor member in garden clubs for
the whole state.

HOMEMAKER’S CORNER.

By Home Economics Specialists,

A thorough dry-cleaning or expo­
sure to sunlight and air before storing
in a compactly wrapped or closed
container is the most effective way to
prevent moths from damaging cloth­
ing or blankets, according to home
management specialists of Michigan
State college.
Clothing in closets can be freed
from moths if fumigated with carbon
tetrachloride. Since the gas formed
by evaporation of the liquid is heav­
ier than air, it should be placed in a
shallow dish on the shelf of the clos­
et For a closet 2 by 5 by 7 feet use
about 1 1-2 cups of carbon tetrachlor­
ide. As soon as the liquid has been
। poured into the dish, shut the door
and seal the cracks with gummed pa­
per, or paste on strips of firm paper,
using a flour paste.
Materials which are to bo either
wrapped into packages or placed in
trunks or chests, must first be thor­
oughly examined for moth larvae.
Seams should be brushed and pockets
and pleats thoroughly inspected. Or­
dinary firm wrapping paper is satisfactory for wrapping if there are no
breaks in the piece being used. News­
papers are less satisfactory as they
are broken more easily. Care must
be exercised to bend back the folds of
.the paper upon themselves at the ends
of the bundles so that the moths can
not crawl in at the ends. If the ar­
ticles are placed in boxes, the extra
precaution of wrapping in paper
should be taken since the moths
, might crawl in under the cover.
Carbon tetrachloride may be used
in trunks also and is recommended
. because of its non-inflammability, and
it will leave the articles practically
odorless when removed. For a trunk

about six to 10 tablespoons of liquid
into a saucer, place at top of trunk,

Injured Taken Home Ln Wing Anibulance. Accident East Of Kilpat­

■

Three children of Roscoe Hynes,
living about a mile west of Kilpatrick
church, and his sister-in-law, Miss
Wheeler of South Haven, were injured
in an automobile accident Sunday
morning, as they were enroute to Olivet for Don Hynes, who has been at­
tending Olivet college.
■ The accident happened east of Kil­
patrick church. As the Hynes car,
going about 35 miles an hour, came to
the top of a small hill, a car was
driven out from a farm yard onto the
road at the foot of the hill, and the

Miss Harriet Thompson, demon­

department of Ball Brothers company,
Muncie, Indiana, has been canning the
products of the farm garden since she
was eleven years of age and at fifteen
she was awarded county chmpionship
honors; at seventeen she became lo­
cal leader for a group of fifteen can­
ning club girls. That year her team
of three girls, eleven years old, placed
second in the Idaho state contest. The
.team also won first in the northwest­
ern contest and were sent to Europe
to demonstrate canning methods used
in this country.
Miss Thompson was graduated from
the University of Wisconsin in 1929.
She began work at once as County
Home Demonstration Agent and Club
Leader in Outagamie county and in
1932, 58,000 quarts of meat were can­
ned under her supervision. She is as­
sisted here by someone from the
Home Economics department of Mich­
igan State college.
Miss Thompson has a good answer
to the women in the city who feel it
is not economical to can. Those who
have a small plot of ground and meet
Miss Thompson always make the ef­
fort. Miss Thompson says: ‘I have
found my greatest obstacle in the fact
that women feel canning is such hard
work and that they also fear spoilage.
In my own experience of almost twen­
ty ye&amp;ra of canning, I have had only
two jars of canned products spoil, one
a jar of corn and the other a jar of
chicken. This experience has instill­
ed confidence in many home cannera.”
The women and girls who attend
her demonstrations are inspired to
save the surplus by canning and to
improve the family meals by canning.

Miss Wheeler suffered a broken
nose and was cut about the face and
legs.
Neal Hynes, who was recov­
ering from an operation for appendi­
citis and had been out of the hospi­
tal less than two weeks, lost quite a

France. Great Britain was in debt to
the amount of 140 million pounds
(about 700 million dollars). This fact
and a desire to become absolute mon­
arch induced King George the Third
to attempt to enforce the many re­
strictions placed on Colonial trade
and to increase the revenue by new
taxes on the colonies.
As many of
the settlers had come to America to
escape the despotic government of
Europe, they strongly resented laws
which left them with less freedom
than they would have had If they had
remained in England. Above all they
resented being taxed by a Parliament
in which they had no representatives
The war started with the Battle of
Lexington on April 19, 1775, Without
an army or navy and without money
or credit, the colonies rose in revolt
against Great Britain who was the
strongest nation in Europe. At first
the war on land was carried on by lo­
cal bodies of men who rose to arms
temporarily in protection of their lo­
cal rights and interests; and at sea
private ships were authorized to prey
on British commerce. As the war
progressed, Congress was forced to
establish both an army and navy.
Great Britain had bout 85 men-of-war
in American waters and so the col­
onies were badly handicapped by in­
ability to obtain command of the sea.
The British Forces not only received
a continuous supply of munitions and
fresh troops from British possessions
but also were able to move rapidly up
and down the coast with the aid of
the British fleet while the Colonial
armies had to march by land. The
turning point of the war was the arri­
val of the French fleet in American
waters. The combined Colonial and
French fleets put an end to supplies
for the British Forces and also ser­
iously hampered their mobility.
It
was the French fleet which enabled
Washington to suddenly transfer his
army from New York to Yorktown
where he surrounded Cornwallis by
land and sea and forced his surrender
on October 17, 1781 . This defeat, the
difficulty of sending fresh troops to
America past the combined Colonial
and French fleets, and active hostili­
ties with France and Spain induced
Great Britain to make peace and to
recognize the independence of the
Colonies.

THURSDAY, JUNE 27,1935
Let Me But Live.
Let me but live my life from year to
year,
With forward face and unreluctant
souL
Not hastening to, nor turning from
the goal;
Not mourning for the things that
disappear
In the dim past, nor holding back in
fear

From what the future veils; but with
a whole
And happy heart, that pays its toll
To youth and age, and travels on
with cheer.
So let the way wind up the hill or
down,
Though rough or smooth, the journey
will be joy;
Still seeking what I sought when but
a boy.
New friendships, high adventure, and
a crown,
I shall grow old, but never lose life’s
seat.
Because the road's last turn will be
- the best—Henry Van Dyke.

The refusal of the national admin­
istration to let the various states
have much to say about the spending
of the $4,880,000,000 inspired Fitz­
gerald’s ire. Men and bureaus at
Washington are going to do the
spending. If, when the spending is
over, credit is due they intend that It
shall go to the national administra­
tion. That has given rise to the fre­
quently heard criticism that this mon­
ey will become a gigantic Roosevelt
campaign fund for 1936. .
Be that as it may, the fact remains
that Michigan is getting millions for
more highways and little for badly
needed state hospitals.
That was
what Fitzgerald kicked about—that
and one other mighty important fact
He said:
.
"In the 1934 fiscal year Michigan's
federal Income taxes amounted to
1101,320,000.
Federal relief giants
amounted to approximately $41,000,­
000.”
Some day the people of that terri­
tory lying east of the Mississippi riv­
er and north of the Ohio river will
awaken to the fact that they are fur­
nishing most of the money to carry
on the federal government and are
paying for the various experiments
and relief measures in the other parts
of United States—particularly the
South.
It’s the old practice of “soak the
rich" carried on by the federal gov­
ernment at the expense of the wellgoverned states to bolster up the
spendthrift states. Michigan, as a
state, is in good financial position. It
has little bonded debt
It ranks
fourth or fifth in the amount of tax­
es paid to the federal government .
But when it comes to getting the
money back—that’s a different story.
Some of the southern states show an
amazing percentage of their popula­
tion on relief. No wonder they line
up with the spending program.
As
Al. Smith so aptly said, “Nobody
shoots Santa Claus.”
What the Michigan governor had to
say at Biloxi will not change the pro­
gram one iota.
The states will ac­

A New Oom- It must have surprlsrnandment.
ed the disciples some­
what t o hear the
words of their Master, "A new com­
mandment I give unto you," for no
doubt they had considered the Mo­
saic law to be complete. Christ Jesus
knew, however, that even though
men might be observing the rites and
ceremonies of the Hebrew faith and
keeping the Ten Commandments to
the best of their understanding, there
was something lacking; otherwise
they would be healing the sick and
manifesting to a greater degree the
power of Truth over all forms of evil.
This commandment which he gave his
disciples was new in the sense that it
offered an interpretation of the Mosaic
Commandments, which, if rightly un­
dersood. would supply the lack that
was so apparent.
It was a simple commandment:
"That ye love one another.”
The
disciples may have thought that they
already loved one another if they re­
ciprocated friendly feelings expressed
toward them, or professed apprecia­
tion of individuals having worthy
ideals and ambitions.
But what of
their attitude toward those blind to
the voice of good, or toward unclean
lepers, whom they had beer, taught to
shun? What was this new kind of
love that could lay the hand on a lep­
er as Jesus did, bringing healing to
the afflicted?
Surely the purity of
Jesus found nothing in common with
the uncleanness of leprosy. No hu­
man attraction drew him to such a
suffwer. In unselfed love his thought
went out to liberate one who appear­
ed to be the victim of impure influenc­
es. He saw the unreality of the dis­
ease—saw clearly that the real man
is the handiwork of God, who knows
only perfection. Refusing to concede
to error the power to make anyone an
object of loathing, he saw with spir­
itual vision the perfection manifested
by all God’s creation.
He saw the
beauty, the strength, the purity of a
God-created idea. It was not hard to
love that which is real.
The manifestation of love is seen in
the refusal to accept as real discord­
ant outward apperances. Since the
physical expresses the nature of the
thought that governs it, it is not sur­
prising that an understanding of the
perfection of God and man, appearing
in human consciousness, should pro­
duce a complete change in physical
conditions.
Everyone surely responds to love
that discerns our honest desire to do
right even though the temptation to
be dishonest may have seemed too
great to resist How the heart glows
when, inspite of some unwise act or
careless word on our part, a friend
shows us that he knows we had at
heart no base motive! How we ap­
preciate a friend's confidence when we
have committed a thoughtless act
that would have offended a less lov­
ing person The difference between
one who Is offended by our mistakes
and one who looks beyond them to
our real self is that the former sees
our mistake as real, and the other is
expressing love in its true sense. This
unselfed love reflects the nature of
our Father-Mother, God.
Bejng indifferent toward another
does not fulfill the law of love. We
may feel that we have a grievance
toward another but in martyr-like at­
titude avoid discussing it and avoid
the person. We may try to leave him
out of our thought, content that ac­
tive resentment has given place to in­
difference. This passive attitude is
not sufficient. We must learn to love
—to see that there has never been
any real cause for hatred, or any­
thing real to be forgiven. We must
deny the error that seems to be ex­
pressing itself through an individual,
and know the truth that God’s ideas
express only the lovable qualities of
God.
To know that in his real being an

A return to the "dark ages" of bar­
barism and savagery was foreseen by
Secretary of State Cordell Hull if the
nations of the world persist in pursu­
ing a policy of "self-sufficiency.” Ad­
dressing the graduating class of the
University of Michigan, Hull said
there were but two alternatives—
“either we go forward to other great­
er achievements of material and spir­
itual interchange within each nation
and as between nations, or we must
recognize that our culture has reached
its apex and is entering into definite
decline and decay.” He said he was
not one who thought a new World
war inevitable nor did he believe a
major war abroad would involve this
country. Nevertheless, he said, “any
clash abroad would at best so dislo­
cate the slow progress of recovery
here that we could not, in the long
run, avoid its disastrous effects.”

reasure at your door

In vacations, as in all pleasures, tastes
vary widely; but no matter what your
secret dream of a vacation be, you can
find that private paradise within the
borders of your native State.
Would you whip a crystal stream for
trout? In Michigan you may choose,
among many sites, following rippling
shallows and probing limpid pools
where you thrill to that sudden tug­
ging at your line.
Would you tour by motor? The high­
ways of Michigan are among the finest
in the world—roads of romance that
lead through shaded valleys, over hills
from which unfolds a view of distant
water, or picturesque sand dunes, or the
forest where the deer and beaver live.
Would you spend your time playing
golf? In every part of Michigan
there is a course that awaits
your coming.

Do you like canoeing, sailing, boat­
ing? Then you can make your choice
among Michigan’s five thousand
lakes—whether you prefer one like
a mill-pond in which you may paddle
along a pine-fringed bank, or one
in which your sail or motor will
give you the freedom of a sparkling
inland sea.
Spend your own vacation in Michi­
gan. Call its unsurpassed facilities to
the attention of your out-of-State
friends. By doing so, you will assist
them toward a happier holiday. In
addition, you will help to promote the
popularity and prosperity of your
native State.
It is for the purpose of doing our
share in this promotion that this series

Secretary of the Navy Swanson an­
nounced that under direction of the
President he has assigned names to 14
destroyers authorized by Act of Con­
gress, March 27, 1934, and under con­
struction at various Navy Yards and
by private shipbuilding companies.
Four of the destroyers re assigned
names which appear for the first time
on the navy list They are: Dunlap,
in honor of the late Brig. General
Dunlap, U. S. M. C.; Blue, in honor of
the late Read Adm. Victor Blue, U.
S. N.; Helm, in honor of the late Rear
Adm. James M. Helm, U. S. N.; and
the Ralph Talbot in honor of the late
2nd Lt. Ralph Talbot, U. S. M. C..

Forty-five of the 1934 graduating
class at the Naval Academy were en­
listed men in the navy before going
to the Academy.

Over 200 years ago the "young gentlemen" of the British navy, while
undergoing pn paratory Instructions
for officers, were quartered amidship.
Hence the word Midshipman was ap­
plied.

Nashville Trimmed
Vermontville Sunday
Archie Martin Hurled 11-8 Victory.
Ttain Flays Dowling Today: Di­
mondale Sunday.

The lusty thump of wood against
horsehide resounded through River­
side Park Sunday afternoon, when
the Nashville and Vermontville ball
teams met In their second game of the
season. There is usually considerable
action when these two aggregations
get together, and this clash was no
exception. It was a free-hitting af­
fair, with a big percentage of the
swats going for extra bases.
Vermontville started right out in
the lead and held pluckily to their ad­
vantage until the middle of the game,
when the locals managed to tie the
count and then forged ahead to win
by a score of 11 to 8.
Archie Martin occupied the mound
for Nashville and gave a good exhi­
bition, though there were times thruout the game when everything was
not quite as rosy as it might be. His
best bit of work was in the third,
when with the bases loaded and none
out he struck out three of Vermont­
ville's "clean-up" hitters in a row.
Gardner pitched the first five in­
nings for Vermontville, but the bom­
bardment grew’ too hot, and he was
replaced by Stambaugh, who in turn
lasted only an inning or so. and C.
Faust finished the game. Two of the
hits were homers of the extra robust
variety. Jack Smith of Nashville and
Stambaugh of Vermontville w’alloping
the pellet into the river, with one
man on base on both occasions. Ver:
montville’s right fielder also get plen­
ty of exercise hurdling the fence to
retrieve doubles and three-baggers.
Today, July 4th, the Independents
are going to Clear lake for a game
. with Dowling, and next Sunday the
strong Dimondale team will appear at
Riverside Park.

THE DAY WE CELEBRATE
Water Survey Report
' Given To Council
Engineer Cobb, Kalamazoo, Submits
Preliminary Survey At Estimated
Cost Of $5947.
Engineer Cobb’s preliminary sur­
vey relative to correction of Nash­
ville’s water supply with an estimated
cost of $5947. considered well over the
amount for which the actual installa­
tion could be made, was brought be­
fore the council at a special meeting
called for Tuesday night by Mayor
Lorbeck, and his report, submitted in
person, was considered in detail.
There are so many contingencies in a
report of this kind that real costs can
not be definitely known only as the
work proceeds, hence surveys of this
nature are naturally elastic.
The Kalamazoo engineer’s survey
covered wells. Installation of pumps,
suitable power, pump house, pipe ex­
tension. cleaning and sterilization of
the standpipe and existent water sys­
tem, and a new roof for the stand­
pipe, which has nu roof at the pres­
ent time.
The report was received with favor
by the council and will be taken by it
Friday night to its attorney, A. E.
Kidder, assistant attorney general,
who will look after the legal phases
and procedure including contacting
the state health department, whose
O. K. is necessary.
When the village voted for the wat­
er system, it was for a system not to
exceed $7000, and this elastic esti­
mate is a thousand under that sum.

in proportion as we apprehend the di­

poreality, but rejoicing in the afflu­
ence of our God."

Rosanna Althouse, sixth child of
John and Savilla (Ulrich) Althouse,
was bom on the old homestead in
LHastings township, Feb. 12, 1858, and
departed this life June 24. 1635, aged
77 years, four months and x12 days.
Dec. 7, 1884., the father was killed,
leaving the widow with two sons and
four daughters, the youngest but six
months of age. Those years when
each and every member of the fam­
ily contributed their part in main­
taining the home; the teachings of
that mother, her Christian life' and
conscientious, industrious ways have
been portrayed throughout her life.
Oct 31, 1878, she was married to E.
Frank Charlton, who died March 8,
1928, just a few months before they
would have celebrated their golden
wedding anniversary. One son, Irving
D., came to bless their lives but oth­
ers. brothers of the husband, enjoyed
their home. Later Floyd Nesbet of
Barryville entered the hofne and in
their declining years has been of
much comfort to them. Besides the
son she leaves to mourn, a sister,
Emma Clarke of Dowling; a brother,
Daniel Althouse of Saginaw; several
nieces and nephews, and many more
distant relatives.
Funeral services
were held at the home Wednesday af­

United States, In December of 1934,
there remain only three large coun­

have telephone contact. These are
China, New Zealand, and Russia.
Practically every Bell System or
Bell-connecting telephone can now
reach other telephones In 60 coun­
tries or separate geographical
places.

The upper picture shows part of the overseas tele­

the American Telephone and Telegraph Company in
New York. The map gives the routes by which land
lines, radio telephones circuits, or both together, can
carry the voice of an American telephone user to very
nearly any part of the civilized world. Bell System
radio transmitting or receiving stations are located In
Maine, New York, New Jersey, Florida, and California.
At the beginning of 1935, about 30,700,000 telephones
on six continents, or 93 per cent of the world's total,
were within reach of practically any Bell telephone.
Distribution of these telephones is as follows: North

Leaders of the administration’s
$50,000,000 youth-training and job­
supplying program say they will
start the project at once. President
Roosevelt created the “Youth Admin­
istration" last week and placed Au­
brey Williams, assistant relief admin­
istrator, and Miss Josephine Roche,
assistant secretary of the treasury, in
command. A statement issued by
Williams' office said detailed plans
were not complete, but “it is certain
that we will be well under way in ten
days and, I hope, in full swing by
mid-July.” The objectives announc­
ed by the White House are four-fold
—to give young men and women be­
tween 16 and 25 work in private in­
dustry, train and retrain them for
private employment, allow them to
finish high “school and college and
supply them with work on relief pro­
jects. Officials said state and local
committees will be set up to work
with a national advisory committee
to seek co-operation of industry’, ag­
riculture and commercial groups in
finding employment and arranging
private and public facilities for job­
training at various trades. Employ­
ers and local governments will be ask­
ed to apprentice youths with federal
financial aid.

The Michigan Bell Telephone company will pay in taxes this year $7.26
telephone, based on the average
number of telephones it operated in
1934; 5his&gt; is approximately 51.00
more per telephone, than it paid last
year. It requires the net earnings
from 187.600 telephones or nearly 38
per Cent of the average number the
company operated last year to pay
the tax bill which will amount to $3,­
594,000.00. And If taxes were paid
through a meter, the Michigan Bell
company would be required to stuff
$6.83 into the slot each minute of ev­
ery day in the year.
On Friday. June 28, Michigan’s au­
ditor general, John O’Hara, received
at Lansing the Telephone company’s
check for $1,368,977.63. representing
half, of its state tax biU of 62,737,­
955.25. The balance is to be paid be­
fore November 1. ’
In addition to its state tax, the Tel­
ephone company will pay the federal
government approximately $809,000
this year, and its miscellaneous local
taxes will approximate $47,000.
Under the Michigan law, telephone
and telegraph companies, railroads
railway car-loaning companies and
express Companies pay taxes to the
state, in lieu of local taxes, upon
property generally used for conduct­
ing their businesses. The Michigan
Bell Telephone company is the largest
individual taxpayer in the utilities
group.
Tax money received by the state of
Michigan from public utilities goes
into the primary school fund and is
distributed among all public school
districts in proportion to the number
of children of school age residing
therein. It is estimated that the
Michigan Bell company pays approxi­
mately 28 per cent of the sum paid
into the fund by the state’s public
utilities.

with a box camera. If it is hibernat­
ing in peaceful slumber on the closet
shelf awaiting the arrival of spring
and bright sunshine, go get It, dust
it off—and be sure you wipe off the
lens carefully with a soft, dry cloth
—get yourself a roll of film and start
shooting. There are more interest­
ing winter plctui*es waiting to be
made with a box camera than you
will ever be able to take If you live
to be as old as Methuselah. Remem­
ber. too. that the old Biblical pas­
sage still bolds good—“Seek and ye
shall find”--and it will not take
much seeking if your eyes are open:
Under ordinary conditions you
can take instantaneous snapshots
outdoors in the winter, or. If the
day is too dark and dreary, there
is always the old reliable time ex­
posure. If the day Is clear and
bright you can take action pictures
providing you snap the picture at
the right angle and are not too close
to the subject.
Pictures can be taken Indoors at
night with a box camera If you use
one of the inexpensivs photoflash
lamps. A little experimenting may
be necessary until you know what
you can and cannot expect from your
box camera, and if you are a real
amateur you will get a lot of pleas­
ure out of the experimenting.

The fellow with a lot of fine equip
ment doesn't deserve half ibt
praise for an unusual picture as the
real amateur, who owns a box cam­
era and who. through perseverance
and thought, gets a "knockout" pic­
ture under adverse conditions. Look
at the heading of this column this
week. If you have belittled your
camera by discarding It for the
winter you owe it an apology for
forcing It Into the army of unem­
ployed.
The average box camera on sale
today has two stops and a time ex­
posure adjustment The stop open­
ings control the amount of light
passing through the lens. Number
one—the larger stop, or opening, is
for snapshots of ordinary subjects
in sunlight The second opening, or
smaller stop, is for snapshots ot
distant views, beach scenes, snow
without prominent dark objects in
the foreground, and clouds, only.
In bright spnlight During ths
winter, on day’s with hazy sunlight
It Is best to use the first, or large
stop and on dark days use the sec­
ond stop and a very short time ex­
posure.
When making time exposures the
camera must be placed on a tripod,
table, fence or something solid so
that the camera will notmove when
the picture is taken. /
You are overlooking s lot of pleas­
ure If you are not making use of
your box camera, so get it out. If
you are really interested you can
stop In 'most any store that Mils
cameras and photographic supplies
and get free literature on taking
pictures at night Indoors during
these tong winter evenings, and yoe
wilt find it is one type of indoor
sport the entire family will enjoy.
And speaking of the family—that's
a hunch for a mighty Important pic­
ture. You will' have a tot ot (an

ple Grove townships, held at the
school house Monday evening, at­
tracted but a smattering of the pat­
rons of the district, the attendance
numbering about twenty, and only
routine business was transacted.
The meeting was called to order by
President Menno Wenger, and L. W.

last year’s meeting, and the secre­
tary's and treasurer’s reports were

chairman appointed Mrs. Vada Kane

in nomination, but balloting resulted
in the re-election of Mr. Wenger and
Mr. Vance. The members of the

Len W. Feighner and E. T. Morris.

the W. K. Kellogg Foundation and
the regional director of federal work

their cooperation. At present the

the cost of a proposed addition, and
the board expects to have something
definite in the way of specifications
and expense to present to the district
in the near future.

The Nashville Independents split
even on their last week's bill, win­
ning from Dowling at Clear lake on
the Fourth by a score of 7 to 1, and
dropping Sunday afternoon’s game
to Dimondale 6 to 5.
A large following of local fans ac­
companied the team to the lake on
the holiday, despite the scorching
weather, and derived no little satis­
faction in watching the local boys
boost their batting averages at the
expense of Stanton and Whitney, the
Dowling twirlers. Bill Martin led the
attack with a homer and three sin­
gles.
Flynn occupied the mound for
Nashville and buried a fine game,
showing much better control tlian on
his initial appearance. He limited the
Dowling sluggers to two hits, a single
by Madison and a double by Brown,
the latter's hit following a pass in the
eighth inning and saving the resort­
ers from a shut-out.

In the Sunday game at Riverside
Park, Dimondale turned the tables on
the Independents and nosed out a 6 to
5 victory. The local boys lost several
scoring opportunities by failure to hit
safely at critical times, and also were
guilty of a couple of errors that prov­
ed costly.
Archie Martin did the hurling for
Nashville and lacked some of his us­
ual effectiveness, getting thirteen
strikeouts, but allowing twelve safe­
ties which the visitors bunched to
good advantage.
A. Carpenter started in the box for
Dimondale and got along in passable
manner until the sixth, when the lo­
cals assaulted his offerings for four
scores, and he relinquished the pitch­
ing duties to Hopkins, who put the
brakes on the rally.
Martin got a double and two sin­
gles in*five trips to the plate; J. Yarger collected two singles; Coville, D.
Yarger and Thomason chalked up one
bit each, and the rest of the line-up
merely appeared in order.

�Political Melange ]
Michigan Republicans gathered in
Grand Rapids July 2 to name 403
delegates to a regional Crusaders con­
ference of the party at Cleveland on
Monday and Tuesday of this week,
and to map plans for the state’s par­
ticipation in the regional session.
They decided to make no commit­
ments in advance. Whether because a
Michigan man, Senator Arthur H.
Vandenberg, is a potential candidate
for presidential nomination, or for
some other reason, no indication of
the Michigan delegation's stand on
national issues resulted from the pre­
conference meeting.
State Senator
Earl W Munshaw, who called the
Michigan meeting, said that its pur­
pose primarily was the selection of
delegates to the Cleveland session and
the speakers who would represent
Michigan. The session, which was
without sanction of the state central
committee, named Governor Frank D.
Fitzgerald as honorary chairman of
the state delegation. Three speakers
chosen, said Senator Munshaw, were:
Former Congressman John B. Sosnowski, of Detroit, whose topic will
be “The American Citizen of Foreign
Extraction and His Contribution to
America;’’ John J. O’Hara, auditor
general, who will speak on "The Re­
publican Party in American Politics,'!
and James F. Thompson, commission­
er of agriculture, whose topic will be
"Less Government In Agriculture."
Thompson, described by Munshaw as
a "real dirt farmer," operates a 600acre farm near Jackson. In his speech
he is prepared to offer remedy for
present farm difficulties.
He holds
that production of crops has been
stressed too much, at the expense of
the marketing problem. ’Sen. Mun­
shaw* said that it was expected at­
tendance from the state at the con­
ference would be beween 400 and 500,
with about 40 from Grand Rapids,
representing a cross section of the
Republican party.
He stressed the
fact that it will not be a closed con­
ference, but open to all party mem­
bers or others interested. Total at­
tendance from the states represented
at the conference—Michigan. Ohio,
Pennsylvania. Kentucky, Tennessee
and West Virginia—Is expected to
reach the 10,000 ma-k.

THE SUBSTANCE AND SHADOW OF BOTTLED POWER
Before the camera's eye, thia modern vacuum tube casts an Interesting
shadow partem; but the Invisible messsges which it helps to broadcast
upon the air* are still more 'nterestlng. Those messages send police cars
speeding to the scene of a crime or In pursuit of a fugitive; day In and
day out they aid pilots in guiding huge transport planes safely over the
far flung air routes of the United States. This type of tube is a vital part
of the Western Electric radio transmitters used by police departments
In broadcasting messages from headquarters to their motor patrols and
by air lines in communicating from their numerous ground stations to
planes In flight It is the amplifying tube which furnishes the final boost of
power that makes It possible to reach these rapidly moving objects,
sometimes many miles away.

Severalhundred volts have on
occasion been recorded on a Una a
hundred miles in length. Simultane­
ous records made at each of the four
points on two lines running reflec­
tively North and South and East
and West give an idea of the mag­
nitude and direction of the flow of
current in that region. In order that
the effects produced by nature may
not be masked by those of maumade origin, the connections to
earth are located as far as possible
from Industrial centers where trol­
leye or other sources of vagrant currente may originate.
Radio Now an Ally
Much progress has been made in
the methods of/Measuring terres­
trial effects since the last Polar
Year. In particular, the scientist has
a useful ally in radio. Both radio
echoes and the angles at which dis­
tant radio signals reach a station
strongly indicate the existence of an

on the opposite side of the earth
from America. A phenomenon which
will receive special study will be
that of earth currents.
Telephone Scientists Take Part
In this connection, the Bell Sys­
tem will make special observations.
There are occasionally times when
abnormally high currents flow in
the crust of the earth. This is al­
most certain to be the case on nights
when the aurora borealis Is seen.
Considerable differences of potential
may be established between grounds
at the ends of telegraph circuits,
which sometimes interfere with ser­
vice on grounded Morse telegraph
circuits. The short wave trans­
oceanic radiotelephone circuits are
also adversely affected at times of
aurora, but at such times the long
wave radiotelephone circuit may
actually be improved. It is for these
practical reasons, as well as for the
broad Interest in the advancement
of science, that the Bell System is
taking part in the work of the In­
ternational Polar Year.

Jehovah; but it was the demonstra­

and healing the sick, not merely in
the name of Christ, or Truth, but in
demonstration of Truth, as must be
the case in the cycles of divine light"

Variations in the test of milk from
the one cow or from the entire herd,
which often cause disputes between
dairymen and buyers of milk may be
due to a number of causes other than
a desire to buy milk cheaply, accord­
ing to the dairy department at Mich­
igan State college.
The milker’s hurry to get through
with his work may be the reason for
a low milk test. The last strippings
of milk from the cow's udder contain
a higher percentage of fat than the
first milk drawn. If the cow is not
milked clean, the milk will test low­
er than it will if the cow is milked
completely dry.
Changes in feeding practices cause
variation in the fat test Cows .which
are Ln good condition will produce
richer milk for a time if their feed is
reduced. Fat Is transferred from the
body to the milk. High temperatures
reduce the amount of fat in milk, but
storms do not greatly affect the test
if the cows have shelter.
Excitement, - such as chasing by
dogs, decreases both the amount of
milk produced and the amount of fat
in the milk. Shouts or any other
cause which excites the cow at milk­
ing time will reduce the amount of
milk and fat
Milk tests from the same cow may
vary as much as one per cent from
the beginning of the lactation period
to its close. The test decreases as the
lactation period proceeds if the cow
was in good condition at calving time.
If several cows freshen at the same
time, the test for the entire herd may
increase for a short time and then
fall considerably.
Tests of the milk drawn at night
are higher than for that obtained in
the morning even when the length of
time between milkings is the same.
Fat tests Increase as the number of
milkings per day is increased. This
may be because the milking is more
complete when it is done oftener.
Tests for the different breeds of
cows show considerable variation and
the addition to or the sale of one or
more cows from the herd may change
the test for the whole herd. The ef­
fect of changing one individual in the
herd, of course, is slight if the herd
is large.
The age of cows appears to have
little effect upon the fat test as long
as the animal is vigorous and in good
condition. Conditions of health have
a material effect upon both the
amount of milk and its test
Gargetty milk tests low Ln fat
It is sometimes impossible to secure
a correct fat test from milk.
Milk
which is slightly sour or which has
been partially churned in hauling to
the station will not furnish a good
sample for testing and the test made
may not report correctly the amount
of fat actually in the milk.

Tuberculosis Notes.
After going to the “great South­
west" for “the cure,” a Michigan res­
ident, who had been a tuberculosis
patient at Sunshine Sanatorium in
Grand Rapids, recently admitted he
got better treatment in his home
state.
Men working in close quarters such
a bamloft or haymow, should be­
ware of heatstroke. It is as bad as
sunstroke in Its effects.

Tube-culosls of the glands of the
neck is not uncommon in children. It
is quite curable, but muat have
prompt treatment.
You can’t do too much to fight tu­
berculosis. It orphans more children
than any known disease.
Only one person in every twentyfive of 450 whose tuberculosis deaths
were recently studied could pay for
his care tn a sanatorium.

grown-up pains unless your doctor
watches over them.

New uses for farm products is to
be the base upon which the Farmers
Day program at Michigan State col­
lege, Friday, July 26. will be built and
the principal speaker that day,
Wheeler McMillen, editor,. Country,
Home, has been investigating that
subject for several years.
In an interview with Dr. William J.
Hale, Midland, Mich., Mr. McMillen
last year found out how one of the
leading scientists' in the industrial
field believes farm products can be
turned to other uses than food or
clothing. Conversion of the products
of farms into manufactured goods is
not wholly new but the interest in in­
creasing this use Is at a high point
now, and scientists are working over­
time to develop new uses.
Mr. McMillen was chairman of part
of the sessions at the agricultural-in­
dustrial conference called at Dear­
born, Mich., by Henry Ford, and did
much of the preliminary work which
made that meeting possible.
He said at that meeting, “We are
today utilizing but a small portion of
the productive power of our cultivated
soil, and an even lesser proportion of
the productive power of our agricul­
tural energies. We who are food pro­
ducers have felt ourselves limited by
the inelasticity of human stomachs.
Few of our customers, however rich,
seem to want more than three meals
a day.
“In contrast, the American people
have an apparently infinite capacity,
given adequate purchasing power, to
consume the products of Industry and
agriculture other than food. Therein
lies an opportunity of greater magni­
tude than we may comprehend with­
out careful examination."
Michigan farmers will want to hear
the message that Mr. McMillen will
bring from the scientists who are
working to develop processes which
will turn farm products into manu­
factured articles. The practicability
of the plan is attested by the use of
such products now in the production
of starch, alcohol, cellulose, and oils
which have a ready sale.
The speaking program Farmers
Day will follow the basket luncheon
at noon Plans are being made to
have some of the high school musi­
cians of the state furnish a band con­
cert after lunch.
Inspection of the
experimental work at the college, a
tractor plowing contest, and other
features will occupy the morning
hours.

Values And Sales
Of Land Increase
First Upturn In Farm Prices In 10
Years Started Last Year Rises
Higher.
Better sales and better prices for
farms are indications of the uptrend
in agriculture according to Governor
W. I. Myers, farm credit administra­
tion.
Sales of farms by the 12 federal
land banks were twice as numerous tn
the first four months of this year as
in the same period in 1934. The ac­
tual sales were 2,398 farms this year
in four months and 1,196 in 1934. In­
crease in sales were greatest in the
South and the Pacific Coast states.
The upturn in prices for farms, be­
ginning last year, is the first gain in
farm values in 10 years. Even dur­
ing the increase in values of farms
in 30 states, prices declined in five
states where drought damage last
year was greatest.
Increased interest in the purchase
of land is accredited to better prices
for farm products, reduced taxes in
some sections, and ability to obtain
credit for financing the purchase of
farms.
First mortgage loans and land bank
commissioner loans by the federal
land banks have enabled many far­
mers to refinance their debts and
have permitted others to buy farms.
Private corporations are becoming
interested in loans on farms for the
first time in a period of several years.
Distress sales of farms have de­
creased. due to ability of farmers to
obtain credit for refinancing and to
the recognition of holders of farm ob­
ligations that it is better to com­
promise the debts and permit the far­
mer to pay an agreed amount than to
force the sale of the property and re-

Governor Fitzgerald notified all
state departments and institutions
they must cut pay rolls to meet avallable revenues. His action followed a
monthly “accounting” speech in which
he declared the state will begin the
new fiscal year on a pay-as-you-go ba­
sis and •‘will stay that way.”
The
governor declared he believed perconnel changes may be made without af­
fecting efficiency, which will enable
every state institution and depart­
ment to live within a reduced appro­

him by the legislature the governor
has ordered a five per cent reduction
in all appropriations—to bring about

If any of these organisations desire
to take up the preparation of meals
for the bands, they should get in
touch with the'chairman of the music
committee,
Dr. Stewart Lofdahl
whose committee is empowered to
confer menus for the meals, the price
to be paid, and any other details. For
the Dostum band, there will be two
meals 'for probably 80 to 85 people,
and for the state band one meal at
noonday for probably 60 or more per­
sons. As they are guests of the
Home-Coming organization, it is de­
sirable that they have good menus
and ample food and service, such as

WPA Bring Pished Into Practical
Production By The Mk-higiui
Authoritim.
County welfare loads in Barry
county, on the basis of which WPA
funds will be distributed, are 456 em­
ployable and 265 unemployable; Eat­
on county's. 318 employable and 449
unemployable; Calhoun’s, 2340 employabltf^nd 1723 unemployable.
Michigan authorities have moved to
prod a many-handed and extravagant
giant into practical production.
Louis A. Nlms, a representative of
the state works progress administra­
tion, Was to lay Michigan's first sug­
gestions for work relief projects be­
fore the national federal labor allot­
ment board Monday.
Dr. William
Haber, Michigan's emergency relief
director and deputy works progress
administrator, is confident the trans­
fer of thofte receiving direct relief to
work relief rolls will be begun by
July 15.
A survey of relief expenditures in
Michigan, of the extent of welfare
aid, and of the nuinber of persons
awaiting self-supporting employment
gives some idea of the task awaiting
the newly organized works progress
administration which will be directed
by Harry Lynn Pierson, of Detroit
Employment, according to present
plans, will be proportioned through
the new organization on the basis of
the May welfare load.
A total of &gt;117,001,130.91, gather­
ed from federal, state, and local
sources, was spent for welfare relief
in Michigan between July 1, 1933, and
June 1, 1935, according to figures
prepared by the central accounting
office of SERA. Those sources con­
tributed as follows:
Federal &gt;82,742,621.54; state &gt;22,022,977.97; local governmental units
&gt;12,235,530.40.
The emergency relief commission
analyzed its relief rolls this week to
learn that during May, the month
to be used as a basis on which to
distribute relief jobs, there were
125,175 persons able and willing to
work who were receiving either di­
rect or work relief. A total of 42.­
654 persons carried on the rolls were
incapable of earning a living if given
an opportunity.
Under the President’s work relief
program, those persons incapable of
supporting themselves, classed aa
unemployables, will become charges
of the state and local government and
will no longer receive federal aid.
The President has expressed himself
as anxious to give every employable
a job. Pierson has been unable to
say whether sufficient funds will be
available to hire every employable in
Michigan.
The state has prepared a measur­
ing stick of county welfare loads
based on May figures which indicates
the distribution of welfare aid and
the number of employables and un­
employables receiving aid. It will
be consulted in approving work pro­
jects for local governmental units.

Undoubtedly It Is Now Or Never On M-14 Improvements, Pavement And

Sadly Needed Addition To Our
July 25.
School Plant

The Nashville Board of Education
has called a special meeting of the
qualified electors of the Nashville
school district to be held at the school
house ‘Tuesday evening, July 23. at
seven o’clock, to consider a proposi­
tion for the long-desired addition to
the school plant.
The proposition to be presented is
briefly as follows:
Under the present offer of the fed­
eral government, through the PWA.
the government will make an outright
grant of 45 per cent of the cost of
constructing and furnishing the new
building. The estimated cost of the
new building Is $85,340.00.
The Nashville Board has the
amount of $8,500 in 4the treasury
which can by vote of the electors be
transferred to the building and site
fund. The electors are requested to
vote on the question of borrowing
$13,000.90 and issuing bonds of the
district therefor. This will make the
sum of $21,500.00 which Nashville will
pay toward the new building.
The
Kellogg Foundation now comes to us
with the very liberal offer to pay all
the balance of the cost of the build­
ing, whatever it may be.
This is an opportunity such as
Nashville will in all probability never
have again.
•
Under present school laws, if we
hold this amount of $8,500.00 in the
general fund, and have it on hand at
the close of the school year, that
amount will be deducted from the
amount of state money our schools
would otherwise receive. The practi­
cal situation is. then, that we may as
W’ell use this $8,500.00 toward the
new building, as to have that much
deducted from our state allowance.
Which means, figured right down to
brass tacks, that all this new building
will actually cost the taxpayers of the
district is the $13,000 proposed to be
voted. This amount is practically all
it will ever cost the district for a
new building estimated to cost $85,­
340.00.
Under the proposed set-up, the
highest tax which will be levied on
retirement of the bonds will be $1.90
per $1,000.00. That sum, under the
proposed plan, will be levied the year
the first bond becomes due. 1938.
After that $1,000 of the bond issue
will be retired each year and the levy
will be gradually reduced until the
year the last bond is retired the levy
will be only $1.30 per $1,000 of as­
sessed valuation.
T*e Board of Education is prepar­
ing a circular which wrill be available
to all taxpayers the latter part of this
week, probably not later than Friday.
This circular wall present full and
complete information in regard to the
proposition, answering all possible
questions. The proposition has the
unanimous approval of the common
council and of the chamber of com­
merce, and there is little doubt that it
wrill also have the practically unani­
mous approval of the qualified elec­
tors of the district at the meeting to
be held at the school house next Tues­
day evening.
This Is by all means the most lib­
eral opportunity that has ever been
offered to this school district, and
should certainly receive the hearty
support and approval of every good
citizen.

CLOVER LEAF CLUB
TO SERVE POSTUM BAND

The Clover Leaf club has decided
not to conduct an eating stand dur­
ing the Home-Coming, but will in­
stead serve the dinner and supper for
the Postum Band cm the day of their
appearance here.

Opening of the new M-14 pavement
by completion of the 60-foot gap and
stock pass through the Spaulding re­
location, has come, but its official op­
ening and that of last year's bridge
will occur on Thursday of next week
with the official visit of Murray D.

sioner. on the opening day of Nash­
ville’s big 4-day Home-Coming Fes­
tival.
So as the automobiles come skim­
ming along down the decline and
across the stock pass onto Main
street, they are merely riding on new
pavement, not yet dedicated but rep­
resenting in part this year's unit in
this M-14 improvement for the vil­
lage.

G. A. Bentley, N. Y.,
Visitor Of Near Future
An Industries Promoter To Make
Survey Here, Contact Industrie*
And Locations.
Nashville is to be visited in the
near future by G. A. Bentley, an in­
dustries promoter, from New York
City, who is doing much in the line
of contacting industries and loca­
tions. Mr. Bentley’s coming is spon­
sored by the village council and the
Chamber of Commerce, largely by the
former, and he will make a survey of
the village as to what it has to offer
in the way of buildings, etc., and
what industries might fit in.
Many small industries, new or es­
tablished. like the small towns and
village if their requirements can be
met Nashville has buildings that
might be made to suit these needs
and the pay rolls would be welcome
to possible employees and store-keep­
ers. besides giving the village a bet­
ter appearance and greater spirit of
hopefulness
Mr. Bentley ‘ has excellent recom­
mendations and the fact that he had
come on to Chicago on business
makes the visit possible at this time,
according to H. F. Remington, who
has been in correspondence with him.
We all hope for real results from
this visit.

More Streets Oiled.
Another tank of crude oil was used
on the village streets on Tuesday by
way of a dust layer. Nashville resi­
dents surely appreciate the action of
the village coimcil in thus doing away
with the dust nuisance.

port Officials of the Krause Com­
pany state that with over half of the
availble com in the United States
having been used during January,
February and March and the other
half having to take care of a period
of seven months before the new crop,
there is a danger of shortage and
they have, therefore, taken these
steps to protect their customers in
the brewing trade from a possible
shorage which may develop during
the peak of the brewing season. There
were only about 12,000,000 bushels of
visible com available last month as
compared with 52,000,000 bushels last
year and there is little chance that
terminal elevators will be able to ac­
cumulate sufficient terminal stocks
before the new crop.
"The shipment arrived in two
loads, there being a total of 3,500 tons
of this com. It has been graded ac­
cording to United States standards
and according to Krause officials has
been found to be better than any of
the domestic grades of last year’s
crop. The kernels are about 2 1-2
times the size of our American com.”
—Brewery Age.

Faying It is interesting to note
Up.
there has been a lot of delin­
quent taxpaying since the
legislature adjourned. In fact the
Auditor General's office reports more
delinquent taxes paid in these few
weeks than had been paid in the
whole year up to that time. Obvious­
ly that is the result of the legisla­
ture’s failure to cancel delinquent
taxes. There was a good deal of talk
about cancellation, and many proper­
ty owners waited to see what the leg­
islature was going to do; when they
found it was not going to do -any­
thing, they began to pay up.
This is what might have been ex­
pected. and it bears out one of the
objections raised against the idea of
cancellation. Such a proposal could
not fail to have just that effect If

it had been carried out, it would also
have aroused the resentment of thou­
sands of taxpayers who did pay their
taxes, in many cases at the cost of
much effort and hardship. More im­
portant still, it would have set a pre­
cedent that would be sure to plague
the state again if we should have an­
other spell of hard times.
If the
state once charged off the taxes of
those who could not or would not pay
them, it would never be forgotten and
the demand would be repeated sooner
or later.
There are cases of genuine merit
and real hardship, in which almost
anybody would be glad to see the
taxes cancelled. But there are many
other cases that are due simply to
neglect, and a disposition to put off
the unpleasantness as long as possi­
ble. And there is still another class
of taxpayer, Including many big ones,
particularly holders of speculative
land investments, who had a firm in­
tention never to pay unless they had
to.
No taxation policy,fits every case,
or is free from all hardship, but all
experience shows that the only sound
policy Is to make one’s taxes a fun­
damental and Inescapble debt, which
he must absolutely pay sooner or lat­
er. Extension of time and remission,
of penalties may be ‘a very proper
concession to hard times. That is as
far as the last legislature would go
and its action to permit the payment
of current delinquencies without any
charge other than a nominal collec­
tion fee has been largely responsible
for the extra receipts reported by
county treasurers. But forg'ving the
debt altogether and to all sorts of
taxpayers, good and bad. is different.
In the long run that policy would
work more harm than good.—Grand
Rapids Herald.

Now We Must For complete and utDoard Him.
ter depravity,
the
Dickinson murder in
Detroit is not often equaled, and could
not be surpassed. Calmly conspiring
to kill the man on the chance of get­
ting some money from his pockets,
without even knowing whether be
had much or little, reflects a depth of
criminality that is hard for ordinary
persons to Imagine. Nothing in their
confessions indicates that the mur-1
derers had any scruples or hesitation
or any repentance afterwards. Mor­
ality was completely absent, just as
it is in a tiger or a rattlesnake.
And now the taxpayers of Michigan
have got to pay for boarding and
guarding the infamous trio for life—
for presumably that will be their sen­
tence. Even before the murder they
were far worse than worthless to so­
ciety. The man was a rat-faced mi­
nor gangster, swindler and procurer.
What the women were could be well
judged from their faces.
They all
have low-grade minds. Events proved
that in addition to being coarse, low,
unintelligent, immoral and associated
with crime, they were cold-blooded
murderers of the most depraved type.
Some persons hold a religious tenet
that no human being should be put to
death, even though he were the very
devil in human form and had com­
mitted a hundred murders.
Some
others have a sentimental revulsion
against capital punishment—just a
feeling of horror at the idea. There
is no argument with either of those
groups. A person’s religious beliefs
must be respected, and if a person is
dominated by sentiment he cannot
help it But outside of those two
classes, who can argue that it would
not be wholly desirable to wipe out
these three enemies of humanity?
The case is one more powerful adgumert for capital punishment in
Michigan. To some minds the force
of it may be more or less lessened. or
obscured, by the fact that the victim
deliberately consorted with the lowest
dregs of the Detroit underworld. He
certainly was an indescribable fool, to
say the least. But that has nothing
to do with the wickedness of the
murderers, their enmity to society,’
and the duty of the state to put an
end to their poisonous existence.
In 1913 a cap.tai punishment act
was submitted to a referendum and
rejected by a margin of about 7 per
cent of the total vote. In all but
eleven counties there were small ma­
jorities against it.
Lenavzee, to its

voting 5,691 to 4,334 in favor of it.
Of the largest counties Kent and Oak­
land favored it, while Wayne showed
a small adverse majority.
Today we believe the result would
be different
Wayne county surely
would favor capita] punishment, and
it is safe to say that sentiment would
be more favorable all through the
more ^populous half of the lower penInsulaSlt was beaten before by the
votes of counties that were quiet and
law-abiding, and remote from large
cities. They were not-close enough to
crime to appreciate the urgent need
of .the reform.
But they have had
four years more of education since
that election, and many thousands of
voters must have profited by the con­
tinual procession of object-lessons be­
fore their eyes.
The pocketbooks of taxpayers in
time will help them to a clearer view
of the question. In these coming
years, when the resources of taxation
will be strained to meet the costs of
government and to help the worthy
poor and the worthy unemployed, the
public will become more conscious of
the burden of housing, feeding, cloth­
ing, doctoring and guarding such hu­
man rubbish as these Detroit mur­
derers. That is not, of course, the
most important consideration; but
anything that tends to wake up the
public is welcome.
It helps toward
the bigger end, which is for society
to quickly rid itself of those who
have proved themselves to be its ac­
tive and implacable enemies, and
whose existence is a detriment to the
public every day that they live and
breathe.—Adrian Daily Telegram .

a true standard by which to govern
our own thoughts and acts in such a
way as to sow seeds of thought which
deserve perpetuation. Christian Sci­
ence furnishes just this standard, for
it turns our gaze from personal char­
acteristics and family traits to the
divine Mind as the source and origin
of all the good which should be made
manifest in human lives.
In the Christian Science textbook,
"Science and Health.with Key to the
Scriptures,” Mary Baker Eddy writes
(pp. 213, 214), "Before human know­
ledge dipped to its depths into a false
sense of things,—into belief in mater­
ial origins which discard the one
Mind and true source of being,—it is
possible that the impressions from
Truth were as distinct as sound, and
that they came as sound to the prim­
itive prophets." The paramount need
of the present day, therefore, is to
turn to God, the true source of law
and government, and to express more
of that Mind which was manifest
through Christ Jesus.
The term
“Immanuel" means "God with us.”
Referring to the coming Messiah,
Isaiah says (7:16) that he "shall
know to refuse the evil, and choose
the good.”
Here we have a clear
statement of the effect of the Christconsciousness. as a true reflection of
the divine Mind. This pure spiritual
consciousneess reflect only that which
is good and true, and is not in the
least contaminated by contradictory
materialistic appeamces. This stateof receptivity to all that is whole­
some and ennobling, and the corres­
ponding rejection of everything un­
like the divine nature, is the true con­
sciousness.. which Christian Science
enables us to attain. Mental impres­
sions are more or less transitory ac­
cording to tenacity with which they
are held in thought; and fidelity to a
right idea establishes that idea more
securely in one’s consciousness. The
Apostle Paul, in his first epistle to
the Thessalonian (5:21), endorses this
true practice when he admonishes
his readers to “prove all things; hold
fast that which is good."
Today, when the mental atmos­
phere is charged with all sorts of sug­
gestions, it is more than ever im­
portant to know how to choose the
good and refuse the evil. A daily stu­
dy of the Bible in the light of Chris­
tian Science is the most effective way
of obtaining a knowledge of divine
Principle by which all things can be
classified as truth or error. In order
that "the impressions from Truth”
may again become as distinct to man­
kind as they were in olden times to
the primitive prophets, it is necessary
to begin now to cultivate greater re­
ceptivity to the truth, and to under­
stand that what is alreauy known to
us of Trap will not dwell with us un­
less we make a home for it in our
thoughts and lives by proving our fi-

State Highway Commission Murray
D. VanWagoner hoped that a district
conference in Chicago last week Wed­
nesday would signal the launching of
Michigan’s 520,000,000 road building
program designed to provide work re­
lief. J. T. Voschell, of the United
States bureau of public roads, who
supervises a district comprised of Il­
linois, Indiana, Michigan and Ken­
tucky, called the conference of high­
way commissioners from the four
states.
VanWagoner, Vamum B.
Steimbaugh, deputy commissioner and
road engineer, and W. p. W. Millard,
state bridge engineer, represented
Michigan at the conference.
They
heard the rules and regulations pro­
posed to govern contracts under the
work relief program. “If the regula­
tions are definitely set for all con­
tracts. the department is in a position
to open bids for several projects im­
mediately,” Steimbaugh declared.
dellty to its demands, thus rejecting
the false mental suggestions which
would obscure and displace it.
Unfortunately for the well-being of
the human race, the mental food
which is now being offered to it thru
the press and other means is too of­
ten sensational, an appeal to the socalled material senses. Over against
this downward tendency, however,
there is apparent a distinct upward
trend which at present may seem
comparatively slight, but is destined
to draw all mankind. We are re­
minded of the prophet Habakkuk’s in­
spired prediction (2:14), "The earth
shall be filled with the knowledge of
the glory of the Lord, as the waters
cover the sea.” It is within the pow­
er of every member of the human
race today, with the assistance of
Christian Science, to aid in this great
world-wide conquest of evil, and thus
to help, establish on earth the reign
of divine Principle—the kindgom of
God.—Christian Science Monitor.

REFUNDS IN SIGHT
ON ’33 CHAIN 1IX
Operators of chain stores in Mich- j
igan who were not party to the re- 1
cent litigation which ended when tbei
state accepted a compromise payment
for the chain store tax for 1933, will
shortly receive a gift of some 534,000
from the state government
The 26 litigants offered the state a
sum which was exactly 62.19 per cent
of the total tax the state had sought
to collect. The litigants thus saved
about 38 per cent of the 1933 tax.
When the state administrative board
accepted this’ settlement, it was the
feeling of its members that those
who had already paid their 1933 tax
should be entitled to the same con­
sideration.
Consequently, to the operator of ev­
ery chain store system for which the
1933 chain store tax has been paid, a
check for nearly 38 per cent of the
tax paid will shortly be sent As the
state collected about 590,000 by this
tax in 1933, the total of the refunds
will be slightly more than 534,000.
An additional refund on taxes paid
in 1933, 1934 and 1935, by operators
of chain counter systems, has also
been approved by the board.
The
1935 legislature provided for lower
rates of taxation for chain counters
than for chain stores; prior to this,
no distinction had been made between
the two kinds of chain organizations.
Thus, to chair counter operators who
have paid their taxes for the three
years the act has been effective, at
the chain store tax rates refunds of
the difference between these rates will
be made by the Secretary of State, of­
ficial collector of the tax. These lat­
ter refunds, however, will be made
only on application, and then after
an investigation of individual claims
for the refund. Application blanks
will be mailed shortly to everyone
who has paid a chain store tax. as
shown by records in the office of Or­
ville E. Atwood. Secretary of State.
The state will accept no further
chain store tax payments under pro­
test, and it has been further ruled
that payments previously made must
be cleared of these protests, or ap-&gt;
propriate action will be taken to en­
force payment

IS A MOTOR OIL

THAT STANDS HEAT!

AUTO INDUSTRY BOOSTED IN
NEW S. O. AD. CAMPAIGN

A significant new idea—one indus­
try advertising another's products—
is presented to the public and the
business world in an intensive sum­
mer advertising campaign which
Standard Oil company is launching in
daily and weekly newspapers thruout its territory beginning July 16.
Appearing at regular intervals thruout the campaign are ads in which
the oil company addresses owners of
various makes of new cars represent­
ing approximately ninety per cent of
the new car registrations this year,
congratulating them on their choice.
The ads are mainly composed of illus­
trations dramatizing meritorious fea­
tures of the particular car under dis­
cussion.
However, gasoline is not neglected.
It appears in copy which gives the
results of an impartial certified sur­
vey showing the company’s product"
to be used by a greater number of
salesmen in demonstrating the make
of car featured in the particular ad.
than any competitive products.
Concerning the new campaign, Al­
lan Jackson, vice president in charge
of marketing, states: "With this
year’s new car registrations exceeding
those of any of the past five years, it
is apparent that the automotive in­
dustry is one of the main leaders to­
ward business recovery. Through use
of its large newspaper advertising
circulation to promote its allied in­
dustry, Standard Oil believes it can
contribute further impetus to the au­
tomotive industry’s vigorous indus­
trial leadership, with benefits to not
only the automotive and oil industries
but general industrial recovery as
well.”
Interspersed with the automobile
ads are others giving factual informa­
tion about the company's gasoline.
The senes also contains motor oil
ads setting forth the requirements a
good oil must satisfy in the heat of
summer, and Illustrating bow Stan­
dard’s oils meet these demands.

Assurance that Oscar G. Olander
will be kept as head of the Michigan
state police came from Gov. Fltzgerld.
The recently enacted state police civil
service law requires that the gover­
nor reappoint Olander under the new
title or name a new commissioner.
The governor said be had failed to do
so because of the press of other
duties.

M-14. Village of Nashville, called for
the construction of .833 miles of ce­
ment pavement with a 42-foot pave­
ment on Main street proper or .33 of
a mile, and a 20-foot pavement for
the remainder or .503 mile, with pro­
ject completed at a total cost of $41.­
141.09 including stock pass, sodding,
etc. but not the cost of right of way.
Many of you have watched the
construction of this pavement, in its
various phases, and are familiar al­
ready with Its riding qualities and its
fine appearance, and here are some
figures of interest:
The total number of men from the
county welfare to have employment is
118, and the total number of hours
work for these men is 23,780, while
their wages were approximately $16,­
436.
As to materials going into the con­
struction work, there were 20,754
sacks of cement, 3.798 tons of gravel,
1,915 tons of sand, 80,593 pounds of
re-inforcement steel for pavement,
8,120 square yards of sod on the
banks, and 4,000 cubic yards of local
gravel on the approaches and inter­
section of streets.
Then as regards drainage struc­
tures, catch basins and man-holes:
There were 1900 feet of 12 inch storm
sewer laid and 26 catch basins and
man-holes placed. And of tile, 1988
feet were laid. Curb and gutter con­
struction totalled 2914 feet Excava­
tion yardage totalled 13.445 square
yards.
And In this pavement which begins
at the north end of the Main street
brick pavement, goes north to the
end of Main street and then by relo­
cation across the Spaulding farm and
out on the old M-14 to the north vili lage limits, there are 13,974 square
yards of surface.
Everything used in this construc­
tion is from Michigan.

C. H. Osborn Hastings, and Glen A.
Lake Charlotte, chairmen in their
counties of the Old Age Assistance
Bureaus, are busy these days.
Their officers are the clearing
houses for all new applications which
are not passed on for approval of the
district office until the blanks have
been filled out and the signature of
the applicant notarized.
Pensions
paid under the old law will continue
until later notice, but time of pay­
ment has been changed to the 15th of
the mcnXh.
Two great aids to the investigators
is for the applicant to have at hand
positive proof of age and description
of any property he may own in full
or in part.
The Old Age Assistance is a ioah
to people who have property at 3 1-2
per cent simple interest
In return
for this loan, they must give a trust
deed to the state of Michigan.
At
death or at any time an old person
ceases to need this financial aid from
the state, the property will be deedback to him or his estate subject
to the lien sustained. In case a man
who has been receiving aid dies and
his widow is 15 years or more his
junior, the state may demand immed­
iate settlement. If she is less than 15
years his junior the lien will be car­
ried against the property as long as
the widow is living. This provision
was marie in order that a widow, not
yet old enough for aid from the state,
might retain her home instead of
having to give it up through a settle­
ment of the estate.
If both a man and his wife are eli­
gible for the old age assistance, they
must apply at the same time so both
can be investigated without extra
cost, Mr. Lake says.
They are instructed to accept ap­
plications of all persons 65 years of
age or upwards. Although investiga­
tion will be made only of those who
have arrived at the age of 70 years

After putting on a brand of base
boll for eight innings that could not
fail but please the most exacting
fans, Sunday afternoon at Riverside
Park, the Charlotte team and the lo­
cal Independents staged a final frame
that Included everything in the book,
the fracas ending with the score 10 to
9 in favor of the locals.
Hart, Charlotte’s bespectacled portsider, occupied the mound up to the
final inning, when the strain grew too
great and Root had to finish the game.
Hart’s wildness was the cause of his
defeat, two passes, a double and two
wild pitches letting the Independents
score three runs in the fourth inning.
In the last inning his teammates
gave him a five-run lead, but he got
into trouble right away by walking
the first two batters. A sacrifice hit,
three singles and an error gave Nash­
ville enough runs to win.
Flynn started in the box for Nash­
ville and allowed but two singles in
the five innings he worked.
Archie
Martin then took up the mound
work and set the Charlotte boys down
in order until the ninth, when they
arose in wrath and started one of
those batting rallies you sometimes
read about. Seven lusty swats chas­
ed the outfielders to the comers of the
lot. and then Gage was summoned
only to be greeted by a double and a
couple of singles before he could ap­
ply the brakes.

The union Daily Vacation Bible
school closed Friday after two weeks
of successful work on the part of
both teachers and pupils. In spite of
the short time, many facts about the
Bible: training in finding references;
knowledge of Bible stories; an appre­
ciation of such qualities as coopera­
tion. service, faith and content, obed­
ience and gratitude; love for new
hymns: skill in handwork: and abil­
ity to live and work in harmony with
others were cultivated.
On Friday noon the whole school
went to Putnam Park for a potluck
dinner, which was enjoyed in spite of
the heat.
A thunder shower cooled the air
before time for the demonstration
program and, incidentally, halted
electric service for a while.
But,
thanks to Mr. Appelman and helpers,
the lights came on in time for the
program to be given.
The children of the Primary depart­
ment sang two group songs and a
prayer song, and repeated from mem­
ory Psalm 23. These contributions
were part of the worship services of
the group and were used simply to
show what they had learned and used
daily.
First from the Juniors was a dra­
matization of the Good Samaritan,
given in original style by the boys of
the fifth and sixth grades. The girls
of the same grades gave as their
memory work the account (Luke
17:11-19) of the ten lepers whom
Jesus healed and of the one alone re­
turned to thank Him. Then the
whole department joined in present­
ing "Pete's Day,” a playlet written
to be used when Pete's are opened.
Eleanor and Courter, pupils in the
Junior department, are on their way
to Bible school when Eleanor asks
if Courter had remembered his col­
lection to put in Pete. He had for­
gotten and didn't really care even
when he was reminded that it was
the day to open Pete and that it was­
n't merely Pete, but the leper chil­
dren, who must go hungry. It wasn’t
much fun, he said just to open Pete
and send the money to folks he did­
n't know much about and he, for one,
would like to see. some of those ha
helped. Arturo from the Philippines
came bringing with him Pak-Yun
from Korea, Chang-Ting from China,
and Christina from India. At Cour­
ier’s invitation they went to Bible
school too. "nd told about themselves.
Pete, when opened, yielded $3 in coins
for the lepers in other countries. As
the playlet closed, the group sang
from memory one of its favorite
hymns, “Give of Your Best to the
Master.”
The Intermediates presented their
message through the medium of a
play and music. One of the girls had
made a pledge to the church and had
fallen behind on it because her allow­
ance would not cover it after she had

which bls secretaries use for an
office.
Calls It Complete Success
Mr. Oursler declares, with empha­
sis, that this is the only life for a
job like his. But he adds that it
couldn’t be done without the tele­
typewriter servtce which carries his
messages back and forth, and also
furnishes that Important feature—
a written record of the entire com­
munication. Thus, rhe editor sees in

the teletypewriter a means of
changing the whole structure of
business.
It was early in 1933 that Mr. Ours­
ler began what was then purely an
experiment but which he now re­
gards as a complete success. All he
needs for personal contact is to visit'
New York about every fortnight ar
so and close up such matters as de­
mand personal attention, and also
have a visit with his own boss, Bernarr MacFadden.
Operates Without Attendant
Like all writing men, Mr. Oursler
gets many of his ideas at a time of
day or night when most people are
not thinking of work. Very often in
the middle of the night, he will get
an idea; by morning he might for­
get IL So he signals for a connection
with his New York office and taps
off the message by teletypewriter.
In the morning, the office force, upon
their arrival at the New York office,
find the message all ready for them.
This is a valuable help to the editor,
as it enables him to leave a mes­
sage in the absence of any one to re­
ceive the call
It is his custom to use the ma­
chine for half an hour in the morn­
ing, and for another half hour in the
late afternoon just before the office
closes. In that way he knows what
ths morning mail has brought and
all the developments qtlhe day. He
teletypewrites corrections of proofs,
changes In headlines, copy for
blurbs, and all manner of sugges­
tions and orders.
Not Chained to a Desk
Besides, he thinks he gets it all
accomplished more efficiently than
if he were in New York, and he
boasts that he can type faster than
any of his stenographers. Similarly,
the editor is not confined to his desk
to the extent that he would be if he
were In his New York office. Some­
times he and fee members of his
famfiy like to take a sail, or a trip,
or a walk through the country. This
they can do, and while they are out.
New York can send a message which
will be all written out for him upon
his return.

‘“Truth" is the subject of the Les­
son-Sermon in all Christian Science
churches throughout the world on
Sunday, July 28.
Among the Bible citations is this
passage (Matthew 7:7-8): "Ask, and
it shall be given you; seek, and ye
shall find; knock, and it shall be op­
ened unto you: For every one that
asketh receiveth; and be that seeketh
tindeth; and to him that knocketh it|
shall be opened."
Correlative passages to be read
from the Christian Science textbook.
"Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, in­
clude the following (p. 322): "It is
easier to desire Truth than to rid
one’s self of error.
Mortals may
seek the understanding of Christian
Science, but they will not be able to
glean from Christian Science the
facts of being without striving for
them. This strife consists in the en­
deavor to forsake error of every kind
and to possess no other consciousness
but good."

Four Yean.

Hugh Hickok, a member of one of
the old pioneer families of .Eaton
county, and a former well known res­
ident .of Vermontville township and
father of Ward Hickok, passed away
July 16 at his home in Olivet village,
at the age of 69. Death was due to
paralysis, and followed a three weeks
illness.
Deceased was the only son of Wil­
liam Hickok, and his mother was a
sister of Mrs. John Andrews of Nash­
ville. His father's father, James
William Hickok came to Walton
township from New York state in
1836 and took up a farm from the
government and this farm home on
the north Bellevue road was one of
the five in which the Olivet college
colony was entertained when the
party arrived from Oberlin early in
1844.
Hugh Hickok was bom on the
Hickok farm June 9, 1866, and at the
request of his mother, who was then
very ill, was taken in charge by her
mother. Two months after his birth
his mother died and he continued to
live with his grandparents, Mr. and
Mrs. Hiram Butterfield, also of Wal­
ton.
When he was eight, he went to
Charlotte to stay with an uncle, Isaac
Hickok, who had the distinction of
being the first white male child bom
in the township. Then as a lad of 15,
the deceased was given into the care
of an aunt, Mrs. A. W. Phillips of Ver­
montville township.
On June 22, 1892, he married Violet
Muir of Vermontville township, and
lived there on what is now the home
farm of Ward Hickok, until 1919,
when Mr. and Mrs. Hickok went to
Walton, residing for three years on
one of the Hickok farms on the north
Bellevue road. Then in January,
1922, his father died and Hugh Hick­
ok and family went to Olivet to re­
side in the family home on Main St.,
where his death occurred.
Immediate survivors are the widow
and three sons, Leslie Hickok of Wal­
ton, Gale Hickok of Bellevue town­
ship and Ward Hickok of Vermont­
ville township: one daughter, Mrs.
Rosalie Smith of Chicago Heights,
Ill., and seven grandchildren.
Funeral services were held from ‘
the residence in Olivet at 2 o'clock
Friday afternoon, with Rev. Mark
Gordon Ingraham, pastor of the Con-,
gregatlonal church officiating, and
burial at Olivet cemetery.

The vacation you are planning is

almost sure to include, as one of its
attractive features, the flash of sun­
light on water—a swimming pool, a
stream that invites your rod and line,
a lake for sailing or motor-boating.

For pleasures of this kind, no part of
the globe is more bountifully equipped
than your native State of Michigan.
Here are some of the finest fishing
streams in America; here are lakes of
unsurpassed variety—five thousand
lakes of every shape and size.
You can set up your camp on a pineshaded bank and swim in a lake no
larger than a private pool. Or you can
weigh anchor in one like an inland sea,
letting your sail or outboard motor
carry you away from the workaday
world—out into a vast expanse
of flashing silver and running g &lt;
white-caps.
w*

In addition to water-sports, Michigan
provides almost everything the plea­
sure-bent vacationist can desire: Hun­
dreds of miles of highways that increase
the joys of touring by automobile;
varied scenery; invigorating climate;
an endless choice of golf courses.
Spend your own vacation in Michi­
gan. Urge its excellent advantages upon
your vacationing friends in neighbor­
ing states. By doing so you will in­
crease the pleasure of their holiday.
In addition, you will help to promote
the popularity and prosperity of your
native State.
It is for the purpose of doing our
share in this promotion that this series
of advertisements is being published
by the Michigan Bell Telephone Com­
pany, a Michigan organization

For Farmers Day
Visitors Will Have To Arrive Early
To Ser All Contents And Other
Features.

Members of every department of
the agricultural division at Michigan
State college claim that their particu­
lar kinds of experimental work will
be most interesting to Farmers Day
visitors, Friday, July 26, and it ap­
pears that those who wish to see ell
the new work will have to come early
in the morning.
Draft colts which are on feed trials
will be exhibited in the barns south
of the river, and some of the best of
the mature horses will be shown on
the rubber tired farm equipment
which will be exhibited. The agricul­
tural engineering department is in
charge of the plowing and soil fitting
contests by farmer built and by com­
mercial tractors.
The farm crops experimental work
includes tests with almost every crop
grown in the state. The plots of soy
beans will attract attention as they
contain varieties being tested for adap­
tion to human consumption and oth­
ers for use in manufacturing. Hun­
dreds of potato seedlings are planted
in one field in an effort to find a new
variety better than any now in use.
Reed canary grass and Sudan grass
tests will interest many.
Flower and vegetable gardens east
of the horticultural building form a
part of that department’s display for
Farmers Day. Orchards and vine­
yards near the gardens will attract
the attention of fruit growers of the
state. Members of the staff will be at
the gardens and orchards to answer
any questions about the work being
done.
Beef calves, a wool exhibit, market
classes of lambs, and groups of pigs
on feed tria’s will be shown by the
animal husbandry department at the
sheep and the beef barns. A demon­
stration of the way wool is graded
will be given.
A one-man sawmill, a log cabin,
and the forest nursery are the high
points of the things which the fores­
try department is preparing to show.
The mill will be in operation so vis­
itors can sue how framing timbers
and other lumber can be cut out of
logs from the farm woodloL The log
cabin is the handiwork of students
and members of the forestry depart­
ment and contains many features
which could be used by anyone con­
structing such a camp.
The dairy department is emphasiz­
ing some experimental work on pas­
ture crops. Fields where a combina­
tion of June grass, rye, alfalfa, and
Sudan grass are used to furnish con­
tinuous good pasture will be shown.
Talks by members of the department
will stress the profit in using a home
grown dairy ration.
One of the features of the after­
noon. program will be the dedication
of a tablet to Professor L. R. Taft,
formerly head of the horticultural de­
partment at Michigan State college.
Professor Taft is credited with per­
forming the first work with chemical
fungicides in the control of orchard
pests. He has promised to be present
at the ceremony.
A parade of equipment which will

The plowing and ground fitting
contests will start at 8:30 a. m. in a
field across from the State Police bar­
racks on South Harrison Avenue. The
site of the aftemon program will be
at a location a little west of the usual
one on the campus. There is a bet­
ter chance to park cars near this place
and more shade for the audience.
Director V. R. Gardner will introdcce Wheeler McMillen, editor of
Country Home, as the afternoon
speaker. Mr. McMillen is an author­
ity on industrial uses for farm pro­
ducts. Music will be furnished by two
home talent organizations, a Future
Farmers band of 50 pieces and the
Manton Com Crackers, youngsters
from the Manton high school.

The state highway department has
estimated that the highway improve­
ment program now officially launched
will provide »,000 jobs which would
last at least 16 months. State High­
way Commissioner Murray D. Van
Wagoner said that with the ordinary
labor turnover encountered by con­
tractors at least 42,000 men will have
found work at those jobs before the
contemplated projects are completed
The program is expected to reach its
peak next June.

A move toward consolidation of iuI
state prison industries offices in a sin­
gle department at Lansing was ad­
vanced following a 'meeting of the
Michigan prison commission at Ionia.
The commission decided to centralize
the work in the interests of economy
and efficiency. The work now is
spread through three state institu­
tions. The contemplated change may
reduce the number of positions. The
most important problem before the
commisrion was that of penal em­
ployment when the Munshaw act goes
into effect. The act prohibits sales of
prison manufactured goods in retail
markets. The effect of this, it was
said, will be to practically wipe out
the industries in the reformatory at
Ionia and in the Marquette prison. A
proposal to manufacture an article
used by the-state, was advanced by
Dr. William Shaw, chairman of the
commission. Manufacture of this ar­
ticle would give continued employ­
ment to half the number now work­
ing on present industries. His propos­
al, however, partially conflicts with
the Munahaw act and pending settle­
ment of these differences, the commis­
sion declined to reveal what article
was proposed. Disposition of the old
Jackson prison building was delayed
until August when the commission
will hold a meeting at Jackson.

Tbreabin, Should Bo Delayed Until
Wheat Is Cured In Stack
Or Mow.
■
Excessive rains and high humidity
during the present harvest season
are apt to cause heavy losses to Mich­
igan grain raisers unites great care
is taken .in handling the grain before
threshing, according to the farm
crops department at Michigan State
college.
The losses will be in two classes,
reduced prices due to excessive mois­
ture content in threshed grain or
losses of grain from sprouting in
shocks in the field.
A bushel of
wheat testing 58 pounds must con­
tain not over 14 per cent moisture to
grade as No. 2. Discounts from pre­
vailing prices of as much as seven
cents a bushel have been made on
wheat containing 17 per cent mois­
ture.
Grain which contains too much
moisture to bring top prices if thresh­
ed now can be stacked or placed in
the barn and allowed to cure before
it is threshed. Sweating in the stack
or mow will bring the moisture con­
tent of the grain down to permissible
limits, and the grain can be threshed
during dry weather later.
The only treatment possible for
grain already threshed is to upe plen­
ty of bin space so that the grain is
not piled deeply, and to ventilate it by
shoveling from one bin to another.
One mill has already reported the of­
fering of grain for sale which con­
tained so much moisture that it could
not be handled in the mill.

Governor Fitzgerald ordered that
all liquor control enforcement be
turned over to the State Police. The
move was a forerunner of sweeping
changes in the policies and regulations
of the state liquor control commis­
sion. The governor announced his
decision after a conference with oth­
er elective state officials. He declar­
ed the change is to be made to take
liquor enforcement out of politics.
The transfer of enforcement to the
State Police means the dismissal of 65
liquor control commission inspectors.

ENTERTAINED AT
SUNDAY DINNER
Mr. and Mrs. Roy Smith entertain­
ed at a courtesy dinner Sunday, Mr.
and Mrs. Menno Wenger and their
guests, Mrs. Macaulay and daughter
of Chicago, Mrs. Sherrington and son
of Alaska. Mr. and Mrs. Smith, who
went to A Century of Progress in
company with Mr. and Mrs. Wenger,
were entertained there in the Macau­
lay home.
School Reunion.
The reunion of the Mudge, Morgan,
Branch and McKelvey schools will be
held at Thornapple lake Thursday,
Aug. 8. Potluck dinner. Bring table
service. Fred Hanes, Pres.

The state liquor control commis­
sion has been directed by Gov. Fitzerald to turn over all enforcement to
the state police as the executive be­
gan a crusade against establishments
which he said are corrupting the
morals of the youth of the state. Fol­
lowing a conference with elective
state officials. Fitzgerald said the
commission will be ordered to disband
its staff of about 65 inspectors whose
work will be assumed by state police­
men.
It was also decided to flatly
turn down the commission’s request
for a 337,000 a mtn th increase in its
operating funds. Expenditures have
been cut to the bone, the commission
said, but the governors’ cabinet was
of the opinion that no additional
funds will be needed. "This adminis­
tration is not going to be Interested
in liquor profits at the expense of the
morals of the boys and girls of the
state," the governor said ."We are
going to enforce the law and if that
means reduced revenues we will get
the money elsewhere.
Things have
reached such a state that they would
make an old-time saloonkeeper turn
over in his grave. Conditions are so
much worse than those presented by
the old saloon that there is no com­
parison.
Unless' there is a radical
change we will soon find the drys
back in the saddle. The governor ex­
pressed extreme disgust over the en­
forcement of the liquor law by the
present staff.
Legally Fitzgerald
lacks authority to force the commis­
sion to disband its inspection staff but
actually he may accomplish the re­
sult by refusing to increase its oper­
ating budget or by removal of suf­
ficient commissioners to give him con­
trol.

Roy O. Brundage, executive secre­
tary of the Michigan Bankers asso­
ciation, said there still are 145 banks
tn receivership in Michigan and that
some of them will not be reopened
because they are not considered ne­
cessary to their communities. Brun­
dage said Michigan now has 512
banks in operation.

—A charge of powder which lay un­
discharged for 50 years In a toy can­
non which had belonged to his grand­
father, killed 9 year old Richard
Bates of Portland. The boy’s parents,
Mr. and Mrs. Vern Bates, found him
dead in the kitchen of their home.
Left alone, the officer said, the lad
bad sought to remove what he believ­
ed to be an obstruction of dirt from
the cannon’s barrel by heating it on
the stove. The heat, the deputy said,
ignited the powder and the charge
eentered the boys’ heart. The deputy
questioned the grandfather. Elton
Lyons, who was a neighbor of the
boy’s parents. The officer said Lyons
told him he had forgotten loading the
toy which had been unused for a half
century, and, like his grandson, he
believed the muzzle was obstructed
by dirt. Coroner Harry Myers said
there would be no inquest.

KALAMO DEPARTMENT.
By Mrs. Ray E. Noban.
(Last week's letter.)
The two-piano recital given by the

very pleasing. The seelctions were
well chosen and varied, and showed
careful and conscientious training by
this instructor. Several of the pupils
showed exceptional talent and give
promise of a musical future. The vo­
cal numbers by Dr. Stewart Lofdahl
of Nashville were much aprpeciated.
A message came to the Martens
families bringing the sad news of the
death of their youngest brother, Bur­
gess MarteriS of Fife Lake. The fun­

Dedication Thursday
(Continued from first page)
Appelman, in costume harmonizing
with the bridge decorations.
Later. Mr. Lucas, Mr. Booth, Mr.
Kennedy and Mr. Gleason, Mr. Feigh­
ner, Mr. Kraft and Mr. Hinckley,
joined by Mr; Gloster, comprised a
supper party at the Commercial Ho­
tel.
The address prepared for Mr. Van­
Wagoner’s dedication of our bridge
and pavement expressed his pleasure
at being invited here and that the
dedication ushered in our 4-day cele­
bration and Michigan centenary ob­
servance, and then continues:
“It appears to me that it is alto­
gether fitting that this dedication
should not only be a part of this pro­
gram but should be given preference
in the order of events listed for your
celebration. Our forefathers, if per­
mitted to return to this pioneering
village, would be just ’as impressed
today as they were a hundred years
ago. They would marvel at this won­
derful structure on M-14, and en­
dorse the spirit which prompts this
community to celebrate such an out­
standing achievement.
You, for whom M-14 has such a
strong attachment, know the value of
this bridge and its approaches far
better than I. Its contribution to the
well being of every citizen of Nash­
ville will be its own monument.
But it is well for us to pause for
another kind of appraisal of this pro­
ject $72,974 was spent upon this
bridge, including $42,450 for the ap­
proaches, which gives you a pavement
in Nashville as wide as 42 feet
The bridge and its approaches were
constructed entirely with federal
funds at no cost to your community.
The structure itself was financed out
of the first $13,000,000 national re­
covery program while the approaches
wera. paved from what is known as
the Hayden-Cartwright grant of $6,­
452,000 allocated to Michigan last
summer.
Just as this bridge represents a new
era of progress in the history of Nash­
ville so does your state highway de­
partment today approach a new era.
For nearly three years a great Pres­
ident has earnestly attempted to re­
move a dreaded economic disease
from the lives of American citizens.
These two programs that I have men­
tioned have been a part of this great
national effort to stamp out unem­
ployment
And now President Roosevelt is
launching one more mammoth pro­
gram as a final blow to the depres­
sion. The President has $4,880,000.­
000 at his disposal in this attempt to
give every honest man a job.
As a phase of this nation-wide
peace-time battle against what ap-

emy, your state highway department
has been allocated some &gt;20,700,000
for a highway relief program. More
than $16,500,000 of this money will
be furnished by the federal govern­
ment with the state required to fur­
nish only $3,800,00.
Michigan en­
thusiastically welcome8_ this oppor­
tunity to cooperate with the President
in a program that somehow quickens
our sense of patriotism to a level
comparable with war-time days. - ’
I have just come from another
meeting at Lansing far different
from tills but just as inspiring. Less
than an hour ago scores of Michigan
road contractors gathered at Lansingto offer bids on more than $2,800,000
worth of highway projects, the great­
est contract-letting at one time in the
history of your state highway depart­
ment
.
The meeting, however, bore an ev­
en greater significance. Your state
highway department made history at
that meeting because the contractors
there were bidding on the first projects in the nation to be placed on the
auction block under the President’s
great relief program.
Needless to
say, your state highway commission­
er attended that meeting with a
marked degree of pride in his adminlstration and his staff. And even an
unimaginative engineer could not help
but summon something of human sentiment out of this meeting in' the realization of what this great program
will mean to thousands of Michigan
families.
The meeting was not without some
ceremony. We were honored to have
with us the Hon. Harry L. Pierson,
works progress administrator for
Michigan, who has brought much
ability and entire sincerity to the responsible office that he holds. William
Haber, Michigan’s relief adminlstrator, and Lewis Nims, works director
for the Michigan emergency welfare
relief commission, were also at the
meeting. These three nSen explained
the broad and high purposes of Pres­
ident Roosevelt's great program.
Last week your state highway commissioner received a letter from
Thomas H. MacDonald, chief of the
Bureau of Public Roads, United
States Department of Agriculture.
This letter notified us that Michigan
was the first state in the Union to
have its highway relief program ap­
proved at Washington. Mr. MacDonaid is an employe of the federal gov­
ernment, a hard-boiled Scotchman
who is not given to idle praise. He
held the same post at Washington un­
der the administration of Former
President Herbert Hoover.
His words of commendation were
therefore doubly appreciated. They
took me back to a period weeks ago
when your state highway department
was being criticized for hiring addi-

the same criticism from some quarters. Yes. we hired these draftsmen
that we might be ready for the Pres­
ident's great relief program. When
the time came to launch this program
we submitted the first in the country
to the President. And last week our
reward came with the President's per­
sonal approval of our program.
As approved by the President, some
$13,000.0Q0 of this Michigan program
is a direct, work relief grant while
$7,674,000 comes to us through regu­
lar federal aid channels. Of this lat­
ter sum, Michigan must furnish $3,­
800,000.
By careful and diligent economy your
state highway department has been
able to protect its cash balance in
anticipation of a day when it would
be needed. If our funds were further
depleted by reduced taxes that are
used for the improvement and main­
tenance of our roads, there would be
no money available to take advantage
of the federal aid offer made to
.Michigan. This state would have
been denied $3,800,000 of construction
funds advanced under the federal aid
;program because we would have been
without the same amount of money
:required under this matched-fund
;program.
When our new program is finished,
|590 more miles of highways of the
।state will be improved. Thirteen new
ibridges will have been constructed at
;an estimated cast of $597,000. Thir­
ity-five grade separations estimated
ito cost $6,345,154 will have been
&lt;erected at dangerous railroad cross­
ings.
I
The program will put a hard sur­
1face on 394 more miles of Michigan
1highways for an estimated outlay of
!$8,555,000. This surfacing will in­
&lt;clude 197 miles of cement concrete
]pavement at a cost of $6,125,000.
;More than 260 miles of highway will
Ibe graded under the work relief phase
iof this program, later to be surfaced
’with federal aid funds. Grading pro­
jects alone will cost $5,320,000.
Certain, definite limitations and re­
istrictions were placed upon us in the
•drafting of this program. In the first
:place, we were required to allocate
$6,765,197 of the $13,000,000 work
relief phase of the program to rail­
road grade separations. Of more Im­
;portance, however, were federal regu­
lations which required that funds be
'expended on the basis of the welfare
relief load. President Roosevelt made
it plain that this program was pri­
marily a program of work relief.
Road building was to be a mere inci­
dent to the broader purposes of the
program.
Federal regulations also required
us to expend funds for the construc­
tion of railroad grade separations on
the proportionate basis of individual
railroad trunkline mileage in the
state. One city not far from this
community asked our help in solving
a $6,000,000 grade separation prob­
lem. This city has a relatively low
relief load. We had to turn that city
down even though there is no ques­
tion that it has one of the most acute
problems of any city in the state.
We estimate that this program will
provide 12,000 new jobs in Michigan
over a sixteen-month period.
With
the normal turnover in employment
the total number of men who will be
employed will probably exceed 42,000.
I am not yet at liberty to divulge
the entire list of individual projects
until certain formalities in connection
with the approval of this program
have been completed.
I cannot,
therefore, engage in a discussion of
how any particular community or
county will fare under this program.
When the entire list of projects are
made known I do not anticipate un­
animous applause from the people of
this state. The program as a whole
will bring lasting improvements to
the great highway system of our
great state. It will be of tremendous
value to Michigan traffic as a whole.
It will do much to promote that young
but vigorous resort industry that
lures thousands of tourists to our
boundaries every year. Of far more
importance than' even these lasting
improvements, however, it will give
more than 40,000 men a new outlook
on life, restore their confidence to
some degree, feed the hungry, and
clothe the needy. That is the princi­
pal concept of this program that I
would leave with you today.
With this dbneept there comes a
demand for. patriotic service.
We
have reached a time, my friends,
when we can no longer localize our
problems and our objectives. We are
living in a time that demands the ut­
most cooperation from all of us. Let
us all think and act as citizens of
Michigan, not residents of a single
county or a single community, at this
time.
Your present state highway admin­
istration has been more than fair to
this community and to Barry county
as a whole in the two previous high­
way relief programs.
More than
$150,000 has been expended in this
county. You have not been neglected
in either program On the first you
benefited to the extent of more than

contribution to Barry county under
the second program.
You have also benefited from an­
other effort by your state highway
administration.
We have earnestly
attempted to adjust debts between
the state and the counties and to
meet our obligations to the counties
when due. Two months ago we turn­
ed, over $1,750,000 to the counties as
the first half of the 1935 payment by
the state under its McNitt law obli­
gation. This payment was not due
until July 1 but the counties needed
the money and It was available. Only
July 1 we sent the balance of this
payment out to the counties.
Barry county received $48,405 as its
share from these two payments. This
money is used to turn over township
roads to the counties.
Next year
there will be no township roads in
Michigan.
Your state highway de­
partment will turn over $4,000,000 a
year to the counties for this addition­
al road burden.
Last week the state highway de­
partment turned over vouchers to the
auditor general covering the second
quarter payment of $3,961,000 to the
counties from tbe weight tax and
$1,275,000 as half of the state’s obli­
gation to the counties from the gaso­
line tax.
Barry county’s share of the weight
tax return was $21,367.
From the
gasoline tax return it was scheduled
to receive $6,635.
Accordingly, in less than three
months the state highway depart­
ment has made out vouchers totaling
$i’6,406 for Barry- county, and since
January 1, 1935, the state highway
department has returned a grant to­
tal of $120,000 in gasoline and weight
tax refunds to Barry county.
You
are entitled to this money under the
law but it is significant that every
effort is being made to turn over this
money to you when it is due.
I don’t believe that this attempt on
the part of your state highway de­
partment to cooperate with you in a
solution of your local fiscal problems
is unappreciated. This celebration
today marks a return to an old-time
spirit that gave thanks for the good
things of life that come our way. I
congratulate you on this spirit.
It
cannot fail to leave an impression
upon the citizens of your community.
As for myself, I feel a bit more res­
ponsive to the responsibilities and
duties of my office in participating in
such an inspiring program.
It is with a great deal of pleasure,
therefore, that I dedicate this bridge
on M-14 across the Thornapple river
together with this wide pavement to
the community of Nashville in partic­
ular and to the traveling public in
general. Thank you."

Little Alicia Lohr and Buddy Appelrr.on made a great hit in presenting
fl.::wera to band, directors. And then
there was a vocal program by the
"Old Fashioned Bingin' School." made
up of Evangelical choir singers, which
is always good. ‘ A blind youth, who
sang and played the piano acccrdian
around town during the carnival, but
nut on the Nashville program, was
allowed to give one number -on the
platform Saturday night.
Thefe were three fine balloon as­
censions, with double parachute drop,
in as many days.
Another thing making a great hit
was the "Pet Parade.” an account of
which appears elsewhere.
The O. E. S. was engaged to serve
dinners and suppers to the Ionia Re­
formatory band, and the Clover Leaf
club to serve Postum band, and the
other eating places were busy also.
An unusual number of house cars has
developed in carnival circles of late,
which makes their salaries go farther
in the days when money is not too
free, and assures them of sleeping
and usually eating accommodations.
Good ball games were provided, ac­
count of which appears in smother
story.
The festival area was well policed,
and there were no real untoward in­
cidents or accidents, except the mo­
tor collision at 1:30 or 2:00 a. m. Sun­
day. when the cars of returning Hast­
ings home-comers was hit at the
Chester Smith curve by one in which
Vermontville parties were returning
home from Thornapple lake, and Mrs.
John Shepherd, daughter of Gene
Barnum, and her daughter, after her,
were thrown through the door and in­
jured, and the car badly damaged.
Mrs. Shepherd received a scalp
wound and several cuts on the arms
and legs, and the daughter was cut
badly on the left hand. Their wounds
were dressed by Dr. Lofdahl at his
office.
A little child, unable to tell her
name, became separated from her
family and was in the Rest Room for
some time before she was restored to
her family.
Claude Greenfield, on account of

The Wade outfit went to Fremont,
and the acrobats and their conces­

Contact Of Press
And Carnival
Mrs. Gloster Of The News, And Lee
Wade, Carnival Veteran, Formerly
Lived In Adjoining Districts.
One of the interesting and brief
contacts of the Festival period, was
the meeting of Mrs. W. St C. Glos­
ter of The News with Lee Wade of
Adrian, a veteran in midway carnival
entertainment, whose son. Roscoe
Wade, is now in active management,
and a grandson in his teens is in
training
Lee Wade and Mrs. Gloster had not
met in over 20 years, but had lived
for years in adjoining districts in
Madison township. Lenawee county,
and one of his sisters, Mrs. E. F. Un­
derwood of Palmyra township, in an
adjoining district but to the east of
Mrs. Gloster's early home was her
Sunday school teacher at the Friends
church, the church and location of
which was made possible by Mrs.
Gloster's step-grandfather, George
Crane.
The meeting was necessarily brief
because both Mr. Wade and Mrs.
Gloster were “on duty” in their lines
of work.

Another most unusual display was

cles of interest that had to be seen to
be appreciated.

possibly, were in the Dahlhouser win­

erty of his grandniece, Mrs. Jesse
Miller, were also in this window.
Mrs. M. E. Larkin had a private
display.
Both windows in the Bera store
were used for displays, one window
devoted to a Boy Scout display, and
the other to guns, an interesting
window to one familiar with guns.
One of them was ttte gun of Carl
Tuttle's grandfather Qplumbus Tut­
tle, and it had been carried in trans­
port duty on the Mississippi river.
One of the first machines made by
A. C. Buxton, about where Mayor

up-to-date Winchester below it. And
something prized highly, a sugar
bowl from England, over 400 years
old and handed down in the Tarbell

And this doesn't begin to tell the
story of the historical exhibits which
one could have studied and pondered
over for several days' time.

Ring party was enjoyed by all. The
old family albums were passed
around, and we looked upon the faces
of many dear friends of long ago

New Cement Highway
Open At Lake Odessa
Beautiful Scenic Drive Made Possible
Along Shore Of Jordan Lake On
This Road.
Two dangerous railroad crossings
have been eliminated and a 'beautiful
scenic drive along the shore of Lake
Jordan has been opened to the motor­
ing public with the construction of
.509 mile of 36-foot concrete highway
in the village of Lake Odessa and
1.128 miles of 21-foot gravel highway
southeast of the village, state high­
way commissioner Murray D. Van­
Wagoner announces.
The construction of the concrete
highway within the limits of the vil­
lage will have given in excess of 41,­
000 man-hours of direct labor, with
an expenditure of $8,300 for labor,
when it is completed abont August 15.
Lake Jordan, two miles long and
one-half mile wide, extends to the
edge of the village and has been a
real asset to it because of the fine
fishing and bathing facilities.
The
village has built a neat tourist camp
on the edge of the lake close to tbe
municipal bathing beach which is well
patronized by tourists.
This project was financed with fed­
eral grant money from the $6,452,000
Hayden-Cartwright fund at a cost of
$32,050. The gravel road southeast
of the village was financed from the
State Force fund at a cost of more
than $27,000. Both were constructed
by the state highway department

Ask Potato Growers
To Visit Lake City
Plan Field Day, Thursday, Sept. 12,
To Show Work Done On Experi­
mental Farm.
Michigan potato growers who are
debating the comparative merits of
Petoskeys,
Katahdins, Chippewas,
and Goldens, should plan to attend
the potato field day at Lake City on
Thursday. Sept. 12, where fields of all
varieties are being grown by the
crops department of Michigan State
college.
In addition to testing the varieties
named and others which are not men­
tions. there is a plot on the farm
where thousands of potato seedlings
are being tested in an attempt to find
better potato varieies than those
grown now. Some of the seedling va­
rieties are very promising.
Fertilizer tests are also laid out in
the potato fields to find what rates of
application and what methods of ap­
plying are the best for potatoes.
Many growers place fertilizers so
close to the seed pieces that they get
a poor stand of potatoes. The trials
at the College Lake City farm show
where the fertilizer should be placed.
The time of planting, depth of
planting, and rate of planting are
other experiments which will be rea­
dy for inspection on Sept. 12. Time
of planting is especially important in
Michigan where the marketing of un­
ripe stock has led to dissatisfaction
on some markets. Bushel samples of
all lots of seed entered for certifica­
tion are planted at Lake City.
A machinery exhibit and a demon­
stration of the work done by part of
the equipment will be part of the
day's program. Farmers who are
handy with a hand planter or with a
hoe or fork are asked to enter a
planting and digging contest during
the day. Contestants should bring
their own tools.

M. E. MISSIONARY
SOCIETY TO MEET
The Woman's Missionary society of
the Methodist church will hold an op­
en meeting Friday evening at 7:30 in
the Philathea room of the church.
The guest speaker. Miss Alta Grif­
fin, has been for years a missionary­
nurse in Kolar, India, where the
Nashville auxiliary has been support­
ing a Bible woman. Miss Griffin is a
sister of Mrs. Eli Chatfield of Ver­
montville and is spending her sum­
mer with her.
As other features of the program
Edith Parks will conduct the devotiins, the Intermediate girls will sing
songs learned in the D. V. B. S., and
the Junior girls will dramatize simply
their D. V. B. S. missinonary hymn,
"In Christ There Is No East nor
West."
This is an open meeting and every
weman and girl in town is cordially
invited to attend and hear Miss Grif­
fin. A splendid program is assured;

White Star Station
Again Entered
Thieve* Scared Away In Attempt To
Remove Safe. Fifth Entrance Of
Hinckley Station.
M. J. Hinckley’s attractive White
Star service station on South Main,
at intersection of M-79 and M-14. was
visited again in the early morning
hours of Saturday by would-be bur­
glars, whose attempt at removal of
the station safe was abandoned al­
most at the moment of success, possi­
bly by the seeming activity at a
neighboring house, the home of Mr.
Hinckley, whose station has now been
visited by would-be or real thieves
. five times, which, with Mr. Hinckley.
is five times too many.
When Miss Bess Hinckley, sister of
M. J. Hinckley, who goes to work at
the post office at 6 a. m., was coming
from her south side home Saturday
morning, she discovered the robbery
attempt, the jimmied door open, the
safe on a rubber tired bag truck,
ready to wheel out, general disorder
and a broken window, and it wasn’t
long until Mr. Hinckley was on the
spot. Offiers were notified, local and
state police, and finger prints and
pictures taken, after which order was
restored and business went on as us­
ual.
The probabilities were that the safe
was to be wheeled out somewhere and
opened, but the contents would have
been a great disappointment, had
-they carried out such a plan.
Things had been removed from the
safe top. including the unlocked cash
register with nothing of value, to the
floor, not too ceremoniously.
The
north window had been broken and
unlocked and the door jimmied. Noth­
ing was missing.
The rubber tired hand bag truck
' had been taken from the elevator,
where they had broken a warehouse
lock.
Also the west section house
had been broken into. Since but one
section crew works out of Nashville,
this west house was used for storage,
and evidently they didn’t-find just
what they wanted there.
Donald Hinckley heard a noise and
turned on all the lights upstairs at
home, but said nothing to the family.
At another time voices could have
been heard from the Hinckley home.
Officers are still working on the
case.

Motor Accident

Kenneth Gardner Car Hit Unavoid­

By Car Driven By Miss Green.

Dorothy Green, responding to a

neth Gardner, driving a Chevrolet and
coming from the M-79 cut-off from
M-14, took the straight road, and
driving too fast to make the right
hand turn, started on across M-79, on­
ly to be hit by the Smith car. Miss
Green driving.
Miss Green alone, remained in the
car, receiving a bad bump on the
leg. while the four in the other car,
Mr. Gardner, driver, Thelma Weeks
and two others of her family, were

engaged in cutting weeds, was "frisk­
ed" of $100 or more by a young gyp­
sy woman a week ago.
Mr. Curtis was engaged in conver­
sation by the gypsy woman, who was
accompanied by a man and child in a
car. and who forced unwelcome "med­
ical" attentions upon him by handling
him to locate pains he didn’t have.
Telling of the occurrence later at
the house, he was asked if the gypsy
robbed him and said "No," he had his
wallet—but he looked in It then and
found the money he had been saving
for taxes had been removed from it
in the very smooth way of the gypsy

Big Highway Pro­
gram Gets Under Way
Contract* Awarded In Many Coun­
ties, Contractors Moving Equip­
ment To Locations.
Michigan’s
$20,700,000 highway
program advanced to the construction
stage this week.
At the request of State Highway
Commissioner Murray D. Van Wag­
oner three contractors started con­
struction activity Friday, just one
week after they had been awarded
contracts on three projects in Kent,
Washtenaw and Monroe counties.
Meanwhile the program advanced
in another direction when low bids
were accepted for seven lower penin­
sula projects totaling $760,532. Bids
were also opened at Escanaba on six
projects In the upper peninsula esti­
mated to cost $800,000.
The three contractors who moved
their equipment to location Friday
were State Road Builders. Grand Rap­
ids; W. H. Knapp company, Monroe;
and Lewis-Frisinger. Ann Arbor.
Commissioner Van Wagoner after
placing his formal signature on their
contracts, commended the contractors
for the speed with which they pro­
ceeded with construction.
The three projects that were the
first in the state to get under way
were: 3.508 miles of 11-foot and 42foot concrete pavement widening on
US-24 from Monroe north to US-25;
5.519 miles of 31-foot concrete pave­
ment on US-12 from Lima Center
east in Washtenaw county; and 0.296
mile of 42-foot concrete pavement on
US-16 from East Grand Rapids to
M-21. The three projects are part of
the first, contract letting of $1,700,000
Jiffy 25, when opening bids were tak­
en on the federal aid program and the
unexpended balance of the old Hay­
den-Cartwright program.
Low bids determined this week in
the lower peninsula will bring the
construction of 14.327 more miles of
20-foot concrete pavement, 11.435
miles of grading and drainage struc­
tures, and 2.462 miles of oil aggre­
gate surfacing.

Prayer For A Little Home.

God send us a little home
To come back to when we roam—
Low walls and fluted tiles,
Wide windows, a view for miles;
Red firelight and deep chairs;
Small white beds upstairs;
Great talk In little nooks;
Dim colors, rows of books;
One picture on each wall;
Not many things at all.
God send Us a little ground—
Tall trees standing round,
Homely flowers in brown sod.
Overhead Thy stars, O God!
God bless when winds blow
Our home and all we know.

growers. Then along comes Mr. Hop­
kins and the Relief Administration,
and, instead of trying to create a
market for beet sugar, specifies the
use of a foreign product
In Michigan the beet sugar indus­
try in the last couple of years has
begun to show a comeback, after be­
ing all but out of the picture for
some time. Farmers were beginning
to find a market once more for their
beets. The thousands of little stock­
holders in the sugar beet plants were
beginning to hope for a return on
their investments. Men who work in
the sugar beet fields and in the fac­
tories were beginning to find some
employment Just then when the
government had an opportunity to in­
crease the market for beet sugar, an
opportunity to place more money in
the pockets of the farmers and more
money in the pockets of the stock­
holders In the sugar beet plants, it
turns around and gives orders that a
foreign-grown product be used, that
the market for a foreign product
shall be increased in the United
States, that the money shall be plac­
ed in the pockets of foreign growers
and workers. Again to quote Con­
gressman Woodruff: "Whoever would
have thought they could be so dumb ?"
—Grand Rapids Herald.

It will be Interesting in future
years for other professors to figure
out just why the plan didn't work.
Maybe it is due to human traits and
habits which the books on political
economy do not tell about. Anyway
it is wellxthat the enterprise is cut
short before another 25 millions is
spent. It has now been turned over
to Prof. Tugwell as a branch of his
rural resettlement administration.
That will make another story in
due time, with more big figures. In
fact the figures are big already, for
Prof. Tugwell s new organization has
more than 6.000 persons on its official
payroll. If they got only a thousand
a year that would be six millions in
salaries—just to administer the en­
terprise. They are going in not only
for rural resettlement but for subur­
ban resettlement—low-cost bousing
communities near Industrial centers.
Let us hope that it succeeds better
than the subsistence homestead plan,
for it is four times as big.—Adrian

AUTO TITLE FLOOD
NOW AT HIGH TIDE
With the Department of State cop­
ing with the biggest volume in its his­
tory of issuing and transferring auto
titles, “over the counter" business
handled on the fourth floor of the
state capitol at Lansing is of such
proportions that dealers coming per­
sonally to the capitol. rather than
mailing their applications, are saving
little, time for their customers, offi­
cials point out
Dealers from as far north as Big
Rapids, and from the Indiana-Ohio
border, have been arriving at the cap­
itol with sheaves of applications for
new titles or title transfers. One
dealer may bring applications from
others in his vicinity.
In ordinary
times, this business can be handled
‘over the counter” with the dealer on
his way home the same day.
With the automobile business run­
ning at its continued high level, how­
ever, personal applications of this
kind are beginning to exceed facilities
for immediate handling; some dealers
return home empty handed, with their
titles mailed to them later. More than
400 “over the counter" applications
are now being handled daily.

The Car Ahead.
Ever watch the spectacle of one
car following close behind another at
a dizzy pace along the highway? You
shudder to think of what might hap­
pen if the lead car should suddenly be
compelled to stop without warning.
Many fatal traffic accidents have re­
sulted from this form of careless
driving.
An automobile association
offers this sane advice:
•‘Keep a safe distance from the car
ahead of you.. Do not follow another
car more closely than is reasonable
and prudent, having due regard to the
speed, the volume of traffic, the con­
dition of the road and also the condi­
tion of your brakes.
At higher
speeds there must be much greater
spacing between cars."
Drive carefully today!

according to the instructions of
Alexander Graham Bell, Inventor of
the telephone. Mr. Watson died In
December, 1934.
When Alexander Graham Bell was
carrying on bls experiments in 1875
which led to his invention of the
telephone, a young man named
Thomas A. Watson, who was work­
ing In a Boston electrical shop, con­
structed the experimental instru­
ments according to Bell’s Instruc­
tions. Later, when success was only
a matter of time and perseverance,
Watson put in full time on Bell’s
work, making Innumerable models
and helping the inventor to test
them. Watson not only made the
first telephone instruments which
transmitted speech intelligibly, but
heard the first complete sentence
spoken over wire.
Mr. Watson left the telephone
business in 1881, later organized the
Fore River Ship and Engine Com­
pany, and retired from active busi­
ness 40 years ago to devote himself
to the intellectual and cultural pur­
suits which he followed actively
until his death in Florida on Decem­
ber 13, 1934. Although he had sev­
ered his connection with the tele­
phone industry nearly 55 years be­
fore, he took great pride in his share
in the invention of the telephone,
and maintained a continuing inter­

and vast growth of the Bell Tele­
phone System.

Fine Horse Exhibit
At Mich. State Fair
Breeders From All Over The Country
Are Planning On Bringing
Stock Here.

Popular belief that the horse is
rapidly nearing extinction as a work
animal is erroneous, according to H.
B. Kelley, director of livestock and
exhibits at the Michigan State Fair.
“Commercial horses are now in
greater demand than in many years,"
Kelley says, "the demand being so
great there is a pronounced shortage.”
"Breeders of high-grade Percheron
and Belgian stock are making plenty
of money and virtually all of them
have advance orders for their year­
lings.
“The Holbert Horse Importing Co.,
the loua Horse Importing Co. and
several other dealers in commercial
horse flesh now have buyers in Eu­
rope who seek to bring back the best
stallions and mares that can be found
in the old country.
"This does not mean that the horse
is supplanting the tractor. The fact
is that the fanner seeks to prolong
the life of his tractor by employing
horses for certain farm jobs that
horses can do as well as machinery
"The finest commercial horses in
Michigan will be exhibited at the
Michigan State Fair in Detroit, Aug.

Following a few simple rules for
the operation and care of the pressure
cooker assures an easier and a more
successful canning season, according
to home economics experts at Mich­
igan State college.
Sufficient water should be placed in
the cooker to insure that it will not
become dry while in operation, two
or three cupfuls are sufficient. Clamps
on the cqver should be tightened two
at a time and the two should be on
opposite sides of the cover. The cov­
er must be clamped tightly enugb so
no steam escapes except through the
petcock.
The petcock should remain open un­
til steam escapes in a steady stream,
usually seven to ten minutes. Do not
start counting time for processing un­
til the petcock has been closed long
enough to permit the temperature to
rise within the cooker and to allow'
the steam pressure to reach the prop­
er point
The heat under the cooker should
be regulated to maintain an even
steam pressure in the cooker, changes
in pressure, may cause losses of li­
quid from the inclosed jars. When
processing is complete, the cooker
should be removed from the fire and
the pressure allowed to fall to zero
before the petcock is opened if the
cooker contains glass jars. The pet­
cock should be opened at once if tin
cans are being used.
Thorough washing and drying of
the cooker after use will insure its
perfect operation the next time it Is
needed and will prolong the life of the
equipment The steam gauge must
not be immersed in water while wash­
ing the cooker. Leave the cover off
the cooker when storing it away.

State Dairymen Win
BuNinemi Ability Of Michigan Herd
Owners Shown By National Re­
cord Book*.
Don Straub, Galien, one of Mich­
igan’s noted dairymen, obtained the
best milk production from his herd of
nine cows of any dairyman in the
United States with a similar sized
herd tested in dairy herd improve­
ment work, according to compiled re­
cords just sent from Washington to
the Michigan State college dairy de­
partment
The Straub herd was second high in
the production of butterfat The nine
cows had an average annual produc­
tion of 15,297 pounds of milk and 558
pounds of butterfat Mr. Straub has
tested his cows eight successive years
and has been able to consistently Im­
prove the herd’s production.
The West Allegan herd improve­
ment association, in Allegan county,
ranked second in the U. 8. in average
annual butterfat production for cows

F

herds were being tested. There were
793 such associations.
The managerial ability of Michigan
dairymen is proved by the records
which show that dairymen tn only
two other states were able to im­
prove upon the amount of milk pro­
duced by cows supplied with 50 dol­
lars worth of feeding during the year.
Michigan herd owners obtained an
average of 13 pounds of butterfat per
cow per year more than the average
for the 203.000 cows under test.
The importance of keeping records
of feed costs and of milk and butter­
fat production is recognized by Mich­
igan dairymen, as shown by the in-

crease in. the numbers of cow* on

From last year’s total of 6,879 cows

Eaton will have the distinction of
I&gt;cing the first good agricultural coun­
ty in the United States to be survey­
ed for natural adaption for the pro­
duction of game birds, animals and
fish. These are crops for which the
demand always exceeds the supply,
according t otbe forestry department
at Michigan. State college.
The survey In Eaton county will be
on lands not now used for tbe pro­
duction of field crops. The‘extent of
such' unsued land, the number of
game birds or animals now living
there, and tbe amount and kinds of
food plants suitable for game will be
determined. A survey of the lakes
and streams to find whether or not
they are satisfactory fishing spots
will also be made.
The work win not stop when these
surveys are completed, but steps will
be taken to find out how to improve
the hunting and fishing and how to
make these improved recreational
values more profitable to the owner of
the lands. Ways of securing more in­
come from the ownership of farm
woodlots wiU also be suggested.
The returns from woodlots may be
increased by better uses of the pres­
ent timber or by plantings of trees
which will be more in demand. Co­
operative marketing of some kinds of
timber to woodworking industries
ipay bring in more money than indi­
vidual
attempts
to sell small
amounts of lumber.
The survey will be made by picked
CCC men who will be supervised by
the State Conservation Department
and by the forestry department at

Facts About tbe Telephone 1
Tbe first telephones in Ethiopa

installed by Italian prisoners cap­
tured at the Battle of Aduwa.

Statistics of the 1930 farm census,
recently released by the Depart­
ment of Commerce, show that tows
outranks every other state in the
number of telephones on farms.

A net increase of 10,800 tele­
phones In Washington, D. C., took
place in 1931, as compared with a
gain of 9,WO in 1930. At the begin­
ning of 1932. Washington was
••rvsd by some 179,000 telephone*.
The New York Telephone Com­
pany spent about $85,000,000 during
1931 in New York State on its con­
struction and improvement pro­
gram. This figure exceeds tbe an­
nual average spent for these par­
poses In the state for the list five
years, the five-year total amounting
to about $&lt;17,000,000.

CHAIN STOKE CARDS
READY FOR MAILING
Certificates showing payment of
chain store taxes for 1935 are ready
for mailing by the Department cf
State, to operators of 26 chain store
firms who recently reached a com­
promise with the state as to the
amount of total chain store taxes
owed. More than 3,500 stores are
operated in Michigan by the 26 oper­
ators; as many certificates will be
forwarded when the Attorney Gener­
al's office gives formal notice of the
receipt of the tax payment agreed
upon.
In the meantime, the department,
following acceptance by the adminis­
trative board of an idea proposed by
Orville E. Atwood, Secretary of State,
has mailed out about 1.400 refund
checks for a total of some $34,000. to
the operators of chain stores who had
paid their 1933 chain store taxes In
full. The 26 litigants settled for
about 62 per cent of their 1933 taxes;
the refund to some 1,400 other oper­
ators was for about 38 per cent of
the taxes each had paid.

Five thousand western Michigan
farmers returned to their fields to
ponder a general attack on the Roose­
velt administration's
agricultural
policies which featured a meeting at
Johnson Park in surburban Grand­
ville Aug. 8.
President Roosevelt,
Secretary Wallace and the AAA were
objects of criticism by Edward H.
Everson, of St. Charles, S. D., presi­
dent of the National Farmers' Union
and principal speaker at the rally.
Everson criticized the President for
trying to “whitewash" the AAA des­
truction of food and assailed the
AAA as a two-edged sword striking
down both consumer and producer.
Everson told the farmers that "Sec­
retary Wallace has screwed up his
courage to a point where one year af­
ter the processing tax is put into ef­
fect to tell us that the big packers
are taking the tax out of the price of
hogs to the farmers. . . . We knew
that 30 days before the processing tax
was levied.”
Referring to Wallace
and his activities as a “Bull Moose"
supporter in 1912 Everson said, "I
want you to know that it is a long
way from a Bull Moose in 1912 to a
jackass in 1935." The farmer leader
ridiculed the recent “march” to
Washington of farmers to voice sup­
port of the federal agricultural poli­
cies and charged that the demonstra­
tion was inspired by the AAA. Ap­
pealing for support of the FrazierLemke bill, Everson accused oppon­
ents of the legislation of attempting
to confuse the public by calling it in­
flation.
John W. Lentz, Maybee,
president of the Michigan Farmers'
Union, criticized Rep. Carl Mapes for
refusing to sign a petition discharg­
ing the House rules committee from
control over the Frazier-Lemke bill.

Mrs. Rate Vandt

A Thoughtful Legislature
has made an earnest effort
to lighten your tax burden
since the immortal Gettys.
Address, the accepted standfor American government has
been "of the People, by the People, for
the People."
This applies to the matter of taxation
no less than to other functions of gov­
ernment.
So it is entirely natural that the Leg­
islature of Michigan has had the People
of this great state in mind when it has
taken certain measures to lighten the
tax-burden of our citizens.
It is now the part of good, loyal, co­
operative citizenship for the tax-payers
of Michigan to take fullest advantage of
the provisions that have been passed for
their benefit.
Not only has the Legislature made
generous concessions in the matter of in­
terest and penalties, but it has also pro-

vided a convenient plan whereby
_ taxes
for 1932 and prior years may be paid over
a ’period of time. There are indeed few
tax-payers who can not now protect their
homes by paying their taxes.
You can now pay up this important
obligation just as you pay for a home or
an automobile or furniture; putting aside
a little each week or month, and then
making an annual payment equal to onetenth of the amout of your delinquent
tax. On the ten-year plan you pay only
a small carrying charge for this privilege.

Get in touch with your County Treas­
urer right away. He is prepared to ac­
cept payment of your back taxes either
in full or on the ten-year plan. Bring him
your old tax bills or the legal description
of your property. But don’t wait until
the last-minute! Act now and avoid the
last-minute crowds.

Emden's End.
During the oWrld war every naval
" man followed the exploits of the Ger­
man curlser Emden, which sank about
70 enemy ships, mostly in the China
Sea and Indian Ocean. She was fin­
ally destroyed by the Australian ship
Sydney at the Cocos Islands, where
she now lies, a complete wreck.

Preparing To Build More Ships.
Sealed blds for the construction of
13 naval vessels weere publicly open­
ed in the Navy Department on Wed­
nesday, August 7. Funds for the
commencement of these and eleven
other naval vessels were provided for
in the Naval Appropriation Act for
1936.

Names For New Destroyers.
The Destroyer Fanning now being
built at the United Ship-building and
Dry Dock Corp., New York City, is
named in honor of iLeutenant Nath­
aniel Fanning, U. S. navy, who ser­
ved in the engagement between the
Bon Homme Richard and Serapis, in
1779. When most of his men had
been killed, he took a fresh gang into
the top and succeeded in clearing the
top of the Serapis of her men; he
passed with his men when the yards
of the two ships were locked, from
the Bon Homme Richard to the Serapis, and directing the fire of his men
with hand grenades and other mis­
siles, drove the British seamen from
their stations. The U. S. S. Fanning
in the World war was the only Amer­
ican destroyer to capture an enemy
submarine.
The Bagley now being built at the
Norfolk Navy Yard was named Bag­
ley in honor of Ensign Worth Bag­
ley, U. S. N., bom in Raleigh, N. C..
April 6, 1874; was the first naval of­
ficer killed in the Spanish-American
war; served on the U. S. S. Winslow,
and lost his life in its attack on the
batteries at Cardenas. Cuba.

Modern FWitlng Ship,.
Battleship—Is the strongest fightig unit; it can deliver the hardest
blow; it can take, more punishment
than any other type and still remain
afloat
Battlecruiser—Is next to the battle­
ship, both defensively and in offense.
The United States has none.
Heavy Cruiser — 10,000 tons dis­
placement, high speed, 8 in. guns.
Used as scouts for the fleet and
against enemy light forces. «.
y
Light Cruiser—7,500 tons displace­
ment, high speed, 6 in. guns. Same
as heavy cruisers.
Destroyers—Small, fast,unarmored
vessels which carry a heavy arma­
ment of torpedo tubes, a small num­
ber of guns, and are employed to at­
tack larger enemy ships with tor­
pedoes. They are used in fleet battle
to attack en-masse. ,
■Submarines—It is difficult to use
them in the fleet battle due to their
vulnerability while on the surface and
to their slow speed when submerged.
They are valuable as lookouts off nav­
al bases or other ports.
They are
more or less weapons of opportunity.
Aircraft Carriers—Is a floating air
field. It has high speed, and is equip­
ped with a deck upon Which airplanes
can land and from which they can
take off.
In addition to the principal fighting
ships, every modern navy has auxil­
iary types such as: Hospital ships,
storeship, tranports, oil tankers, re­
pair ships, mine sweepers, mine plant­
ers, tugs, etc.

Training Stations
The United States Naval
Stations at Great Lakes, Ill.,
Newport. R. I., have been reopened.
They resumed full commission status
Ally 1st, and'will be used to absorb
the overflow from the Training Sta­
tions at San Diego, Cal., and Norfolk,
Va. The average number of men sent
to each station will be above 200 .

Fuel OU.
Under ordinary peace time condi­
tions, 8,000,000 barrels of fuel oil is
said to be approximately a six
months supply for the United States
navy.

Hog Calling At Fair.

If you possess superior ability In
the "art" of calling a hog or a hus­
band you will have an opportunity to
express your talent at the Michigan
State Fair, Aug. 30 to Sept. 8.
Although competition in most of
the contests and exhibitions at the
Fair is restricted to Michiganites, the
Fair board of managers has waived
geographical barriers in the calling
contests.
"In these contests we know

THE -TAX BILL."
The wicked, vicious thing about
the so-called tax bill, which the Pres­
ident put on the “must" program, is
that it is not a revenue or tax blU at
all, but was proposed to "soak the
rich."
"Soaking the rich" may sound all
right to the unthinking person, but,
analyzed, it is disclosed as a measure
which would destroy industry, ’not
because the President's
measure
would hit so many persons, for it
would not, but because It would inev­
itably be followed by other measures
which would take away the major
portion from those receiving smaller
incomes.
The tendency always has been to
extend taxes to new items and, if leg­
islation of this kind is once enacted,
we shall find other legislation impos­
ing additional taxes upon persons
earning smaller incomes until, in the
end, the poor man again, as always,
will be carrying the burden.
When this measure was up, I ask­
ed Congressman Truax of Ohio, who
acted as one of the President’s spokes­
men in the House, whether the pur­
pose was to “soak the rich" and he
replied, "Yes, that is right," . and.
when he was pressed as to whether
the purpose was for the government
to take over Ford’s factory, when
Ford died, he said, "Yes, probably."
I hold no brief for Henry Ford, but
he is a man who, by his own indus­
try and ability, has become a mil­
lionaire, has not only given employ­
ment to hundreds of thousands at an
advanced wage, but, in addition, has
been the means of enabling all of us
to buy cheap, good automobiles.
The scheme, which would destroy
his business and render it impossible
for him to*pass it on to his son and I
which would substitute the known
wasteful, incompetent government
management, to me Is nothing more
or less than one which, if logically
followed to its end, will bring disas­
ter to this country.
This proposed legislation is just
another part of a plan to buy votes,
to appeal to the unthinking, who do
not stop to consider the fact that, if
these great organizations are destroy­
ed there is no one left to give era-

so low a price.
Gentlemen
who propose these
schemes are wreckers and, whether
they know it or not, .are doing untold
harm to the so-called average person
who must work for a living.

In Auto Collision I

A -submarine, controlled by radio,
has been built by a 21 year old stu­
dent of the University of Michigan in
his basement, and the young man to
achieve this feat is Harlan Boston
Rltze, grandson of William Boston,
deceased, who in years gone by oper­
ated the brick yard where the OakHbade Greenhouse of Mrs. Biggs is lo­
cated, and owned much land there­
abouts, including the present home of
Mrs. Ida Wright, which was the home
of the Boston family, a prominent one
in the social and business life of the
earlier Nashville, the daughter Isa­
belle being the mother of this genius.
Mr. Ritze became interested in me­
chanics while in Junior High school,
and after constructing model air­
planes for several years began to
build radios and sell them to neigh­
bors. Radio was then in its infancy.
Later he became interested in televi­
sion and finally rigged up a set on his
radio and it worked. When he had
carried that as far as he could with
his limited equipment, he turned to
another field in radio, remote control.
Ships had been controlled by radio,
a torpedo had been directed by radio
waves and he decided to see if he
couldn't discover something more im­
portant in naval practise, and after
1400 hours in his basement work shop
he has his 65 lb. model of a subma­
rine that operates by remote control,
and as far as he knows, it's the only
sub-boat model ever designed for re­
mote control.
It may interest the
Navy, who knows, and what may he
not accomplish in the years to come ?
The boat is capable of seven dis­
tinct maneuvers, all controlled by the
radio operator ashore. It can go full
speed ahead (about four miles per
hour), turn to port or starboard, turn
completely around in a radius of 25
feet, dive to a depth of 9 feet, re­
verse, stay under water any length of
time, and shoot a deck gun with an
effective range of 200 feet. The boat
is operated on a selector switch sys­
tem. with 8 positions on the switch.
He has run it with a pair of wires.
' operating the selector switch, but at
last reports was going to run it en­
tirely by radio, after returning from
a summer term at ROTC Signal camp
at Fort Sheridan, Ill.
His boat is divided into three com­
partments. the compressed air com­
partment in the aft part of the boat,
the battery compartment, and tbe
control compartment. A six volt wet
battery furnishes the operating pow­
er for the boat, while four 22 1-2 volt
B batteries operate the radio set.

Payments Of Delinquent Taxes Are
Attaining Proportions Of Tidal Wave
Michigan’s thousand of tax delin­
quents are responding to the state’s
August drive to stimulate payments
in proportions approaching a tidal
wave, according to Auditor General
John J. O’Hara, directing the cam-

1 deadline approaches.
“Many of these treasurers have-^put
on extra help but still can not keep Yip
with collections," he said. "Those who
intend to pay their back taxes will be
doing these men a real favor by pay­
ing at once.
During the week, the Auditor Gen­
eral sent county treasurers supplies
of descriptive folders which explain in
full the advantages of paying back
taxes before September 1. Those de­
siring a copy of the folder can obtain
one by writing their local county
treasurer or by calling in person at
the office.
First reports from over, the state
indicate that payments in full and un­
der the ten-year plan are running
about even. If this trend continues
throughout the drive, collections will
exceed the most optimistic;^ expecta­
tions.
The largest check for back taxes in
Wayne county last week came from
the Continental Motor corporation. It
was for $53,778.00 and covered taxes
for 1932, 1933 and 1934.

Council Informed
Of The Water Survey
Three Extensions Included; Calls For
More Man-Hours And MateriaL
Grant PoMlble.
Village "Dads”, meeting Monday
night in regular session, were inform­
ed of the complete water survey made
here on Saturday by L. A. Cobb, Kal­
amazoo engineed, and a federal man,
Mr. Bronson, with additional exten­
sions not included in original plan,
which would call for additional man­
hours and material, but with a feder­
al grant would cut the cost, it was
thought, by approximately $2,000 .
This was still to be figured, and of
course there must be an adequate
supply of water and machinery, as
originally planned.
The extensions include. 1st, east
on Kellogg street; 2nd, out to Arthur
Pennock farm; and third, on South
State street from Francis to town
line, then to South Main where there
is already a main.
The federal government, it is un­
derstood, will give a grant of $300 in
materials for every $900 increase in
man-hours, and in this way it is es­
timated the saving will be made.
Mayor Lorbeck and Clerk Reming­
ton were authorized as a committee
to go ahead and sign the necessary
papers.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 22, 1935.
The Lost Here are a few govemMarkeL meat statistics which tell
a pretty sad story to
themselves.
In the year ending June 30, 1934,
American cotton gowers shipped to
foreign countries 7,921,000 bales.
In the year ending June 30, 1935.
America exported 4,826,000 bales.
A loss of more than 3,000,000 bales
of a value of more than $150,000,000.
Not since 1892 has the United
States exported under 5,000,000 bales
of cotton.
Heretofore America has supplied
60 per cent of the cotton require­
ments of foreign nations.
This last year it supplied less than
45 per cent
More than 7,003,000 bales are now
held by the United States government
under a price-fixing loan of 12 cents
a pound.
In 1933 under the orders of the De­
partment of Agriculture, 10,000,000
acres of cotton were plowed under.
In 1934, a 40 per cent cut in acre­
age was ordered.
In 1935, another reduction of 30
per cent in acreage was ordered.
Brazil in 1933 had little, if any.
cotton for sale.
Last year Brazil exported 584,000
bales.
This year Brazil will export nearly,
if not* quite, 1,000,000 bales or about
one-third what the United States has
lost
Foreign cotton producing countries
can and do undersell American pro­
ducers under the price at which the
government, has pegged American
cotton.
Germany has cut her purchases of
American cotton 70 per cent.
France has cu t her purchases 50
per cent
England has cut her purchases 40
per cent
Japan has cut her purchases a les­
ser amount.
All are buying cotton from other
countries at lower prices than we are
permitted to sell it.
The foreign market for cotton was
formerly worth from $500,000,000 to
$750,000,000 annually to American
cotton growers.
What’s the answer to all this?
A lost foreign market which we
may never recover. Loss of hun­
dreds of dollars to the southern plant­
er and so to every industry and every
business in the United States.
It is of no use to fix a price on cot­
to nor anything else if nobody will
buy at that price.
That's what we
have done under the "planned econ­
omy" as it relates to cotton.r-Grand

Rogers And The enthusiasm of the
Post
air minded over the air­
plane as a means of
transportation suffers another tempo­
rary setback as a result of the trag­
edy that ended the lives of Wiley Post
and Will Rogers in Alaska. So long
as the human element is a controlling
factor in travel, airlpanes will fall,
lives will be lost in automobile and
railway wrecks, and men will con­
tinue to go down to the sea in ships.
We read of them every day: but it re­
quires the loss of some individual of
national prestige or affection to make
the item of more than routine signi­
ficance.
Such a prestige and such an affec­
tion rode along with death in the air­
plane in which Wiley Post and Will
Rogers met disaster on a desolate
Alaskan tundra.
Post was easily

new science- of the air. Rogers, call­

Rogers’ type of humor became firm­
ly established, recognized and appre­
ciated. Technicians in the field of
aeronautics advanced their science by
reason of Post's discoveries. He did
not survive to reach his objective of a
commercially successful flight in the
stratosphere but the trail he blazed
will one day be followed by bls suc­
cessors.
As the nation mourns over the loss
of two figures held close in its affec­
tion. it will be well to temper the sor­
row in the realization that the exam­
ple, the kindliness, the exploration
and the experience of those who have
passed have left indelible records by
which the survivors may chart their
course.—Adrian Daily Telegram.

The United States gov­
ernment under the
Home Owners’ Loan
Corporation holds mortgages on 883­
000 properties.
Twenty per cent of these properties
are 90 days or more behind in their
payments.
The government has already begun
foreclosure proceedings upon those
homes and officials say: “There is no
intention or likelihood that the gov­
ernment will take losses on the de­
faulted mortgages."
Probably a very great many, per­
haps a majority of those who bor­
rowed from the government to save
their homes had no idea the govern­
ment ever would press them.
But
Uncle Sam proposes to have his pound

shark.
This 20 per cent of mortgages
which are already in arrears repre­
sent loans on property valued at
about 218,000,000,000 (18 billions) of
dollars.
Therefore, Uncle Sam bids fair to
become a landlord in a big way with
many of his nieces and nephews pay­
ing rent to him when they thought
they were saving their homes through
his generosity.
But this is only one of the many
disillusionments of the times. RFC

from the banks and from the indus­
tries to which it loaned money. Even­
tually, probably a very considerable
number of these institutions will pass

What Are
Three Taxes?

Property
owners
throughout the state
are being urged to
pay their delinquent taxes. They are
being advised that they can save con­
siderable money in accumulated in­
terest and savings by taking advan­
tage of the benefits offered in three
plans provided for in the Moore-Holbeck Tax Act. These plans have been
explained in these columns. For those

prevention, title to property, the day
to court. Taxes are the police depart­
ment and the fire department. Taxes
are the parks and the roads which,
lead to pleasure land or to the bedaide of a stricken relative.”
We might add here that back taxes
are the overdue and unpaid bills for
। these serviced, and conveniences. It
is these bills which force substantial
items for debt service and debt re­
tirement into government budgets. It
is these items that eat up millions of
dollars in interest that goes to the
lenders of money and not to the peo­
ple In the way of continued services
and conveniences.
In the final analysis, urging the
payment of taxes is simply reminding
the people to do something for them­
selves. By paying now, they not only
save their homes, free themselves
from worry and fear over debt and
insecurity—they reduce the cost of
government. It is they who pay that
cost

A Loving So often do we see smiling persons about us that
seldom, perhaps, do we
stop to consider the reason for a
smile, and the possible effect it may
have on him to whom it is given.
Mary Baker Eddy, in an article en­
titled "Pond and Purpose" (Miscel­
laneous writings, p 20'). speaks of
the pond contributed by her students
to Pleasant View as “this smile of
Christian Science," because as she
looked on it she felt it would
ways mirror their love, loyalty, and
good works.” As we ponder ’her
statement and Its application to hu­
manity, we come to see that a smile
should not be used as a mask to con­
ceal one’s feelings, nor as a shallow
thing. Rather should it express those
things which have their inception in
the heart of divinity—“love, loyalty,
and good works."
Just as it is natural for man to be
healthy, so it is natural for a man of
integrity, upright in his ways, whose
thinking is governed by divine Princi­
ple. to have a ready smile.
It indi­
cates the loving honesty of his char­
acter. and it is potent, because it ex­
presses the love of God.
It is the
smile w’hich comes with the under­
standing and application of Christian
Science.
There was once a young student of
Christian Science who was in the
depths of despair. His business had
dwindled away; his home was wreck­
ed, his body ravaged by a so-called
incurable malady.
On the verge of
despair, yet desperately clinging to
God, his heart crying out for a ray of
light to show him the way, he passed
a friend on a crowded street Altho
they could not converse, the friend
gave him a smile so filled with kind­
ness, encouragement, and compas­
sion. that, immediately the weight of
his burden was lifted, and a voice
seemed to say, “This is the way. walk
ye in it." While the friend did not
know’ that his understanding smile
had turned the other’s feet again to­
wards the true path, yet it had this
divinely natural consequence, because
it was God-impelled.
Christian Science teaches that the
weight of troubles depends on how
one regards them. Christ Jesus must
have meant this when he said (Mark
7:15), “There is nothing from without
a man, that entering into him can de­
file him. but the things which come
out of him, those are they that defile
the man." It is not so much the
character of the problem which pre­
sents itself that affects one, as how
one receives and acts upon it.
In
"Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures” (p. 480) Mrs. Eddy says,
"Where the spirit of God is, and there
is no place where God is not, evil be­
comes nothing—the opposite of the
something of Spirit"
If. then, we
can see evil as nothing, as Christian
Science teaches, and reject it, instead
of accepting the erroneous presenta­
tion as potent and real, our difficulties
will rapidly diminish and will finally
disappear.
Also, the change of
thought will be evidenced in a chang­
ed expression; and the harassed and
unhappy aspect will melt into that
radiant and kindly geniality which
characterizes him who has gained
spiritual dominion.
As we cultivate that influx of spir­
itual understanding which prompts
kindly smiles, we shall enrich and be
enriched by giving more of these
friendly tokens of love. Loving smiles
bring rest to the weary and hope to
the sick. They bring sunshine to the
sad. light to the lonely, and joy to the
disconsolate.. While a smile may
come and go in a moment, yet the
memory of it may last a lifetime; and
as we look about, we should remem­
ber that none needs a smile so much
as he who seemingly has none to give.
We should "look away from the
body into Truth and Love, the Princi­
ple of all happiness., harmony, and
immortality” (Science and Health
p. 261). thereby bringing out a more
practical comprehension and expres­
sion of true being and its priceless
attributes. Mrs. Eddy has enabled uf
to see many of these formerly unseen
things; and not the least of these is
Sniile.

Jules Verne wrote "Around the

it was a fictitious journey made by

later, in 1889, did that dream be­
come a reality, when Nellie Bly ac­
tually did circumnavigate the globe

First Call 'Round the Globe
And then the other day the hu­

world in approximately a quarter
of a second. Thus was history made
on April 25, 1985, when President
Walter 8. Gifford of the American
Telephone and Telegraph Company
talked over a 23,000-mlle wire and
radio telephone circuit which origi­
nated and terminated in the Long

York City.
This was the first demonstration
ever made of a two-way telephone
call all the way round the world. It
Was the longest telephone circuit
ever established, vividly bringing to
mind the immortal words of Puck in
Shakespeare’s "Midsummer Night’s
Dream,” "Til put a girdle round the
earth in forty minutes."
The conversation traversed the
continents of North America, Asia
and Europe, spanned the Atlantic

cisco by wire; to Bandoeng, Java, and thence on to
Amsterdam, Holland, by radio telephone; to London
by wire; and back to New York by radio telephone.

The call went west from New York
by transcontinental wires to San
Francisco. From that city, it pro­
ceeded to the Bell System’s short
wave transmitting station at Dixon.
CaL, and from this station was trans­
mitted 9,000 miles across the Pacific
to the overseas telephone terminal
of The Netherlands Telephone Ad­
ministration at Bandoeng, Java.
At Bandoeng the voice impulses
were transferred to another short
wave radio telephone circuit, span­
ning the distance of 7,000 miles to
Amsterdam. Thence the call went by
submarine cable beneath the North
Sea, by wires and cable to the Lon­
don trunk exchange, and thence to
the Rugby radio station of the Brit­
ish Post Office.

Telephones 50 Feet Apart
At Rugby it was again shot into
the ether by short wave radio and
received at the American Telephone
and Telegraph Company's radio
telephone station at Netoong, N. J.
The remainder of the route was
over telephone cable.
The answering voice, that of VlcePresldent T. G. Miller of the Long
Lines Department of the A. T. St T.
Co., sped in the opposite direction.
At Lawrenceville, N. J., It was put
on the air to be received at B&amp;ldock,

England; thence it went by wire
through London to Amsterdam, by
short wave radio telephone to Java,
then on to California, and by wire
and cable back to New York.
The circuit linking the two tele­
phones was more than 23,000 miles
in length, but the telephones, them*
selves, were actually within fifty
feet of each other. The voice impul­
ses covered this distance of 23,000
miles in a quarter of a second.
Into Tomorrow—end Out
It was half past nine o'clock one
Thursday morning when the con­
versation took place in New York.
At San Francisco the clocks read
6:30 A.M. As the voice of the first
speaker sped across the Pacific, the
clocks in Hawaii had just struck 4
AM. Far out on the Western Pacific,
a ship's bell had struck once—
12:30 Friday morning—and Immedi­
ately afterwards the impulses
reached Java, where the clocks were
reading 10 o'clock Thursday eve­
ning.
The hands on Big Bea in London
pointed to &lt;2:80 P.M. as the voice
impulses flashed through the Lon­
don trunk exchange, and Mr. Miller
heard Mr. Gifford’s voice at a quar­
ter of a second after 9:30 A.M. in
New York City. In crossing the In­
ternational Date Line tar out on the
Pacific, the voices of the speakers
went from today into tomorrow and
then back into today again.
"This is another step in the con­
quest of time and space by man.**
said Mr. Gifford, "and proves there
are no earthly limits to human,
speech."

The chief difficulty lies in tracing
property equities of applicants for old
age pensions. The state law demands
that persons with property seeking
old age pensions must execute a trust
deed of the property to the state. The
equity of the state is a growing one,
depending on the amount of pension
paid. The interest in the property
cannot exceed the amount of pension
paid out. In the event of death of an
applicant, the state's equity is limit­
ed by the amount of pension paid out
and the balance of the property, after
the state's claims are satisfied, re­
verts to any designated survivor. In
the event of death, the county wel­
fare agent is to be notified as soon as
possible, to prevent undue delay in
settling any estate.

HOMEMAKER’S CORNER.
By Home Economics Specialists,
Michigan State College.
Cucumber pickles, which add zest
to meals or lunches when carefully
made, are sometimes spoiled by caus­
es which could be avoided, according
to home economics experts at Mich­
igan State college.
The shrivelling of pickles may be
caused by vinegar which is too hot
or too strong.
Too strong brine or
too much sugar are other reasons for
shrivelled pickles. Sweet pickles of­
ten shrivel due to overcooking or too
much sugar.
Bacterial action causes softening of
pickles. Weak brine or storage in
warm places help the bacteria to be­
come established and to multiply.
Boiling vinegar for considerable per­
iods weakens it and permits bacterial
growth in pickles preserved in such
vinegar. Pickles which are exposed
above the surface of the liquid in
pickling jars also become soft.
Large quantities of spice or boiling
of spice too long in vinegar may cause
bitter flavors in pickles. Scum form­
ing on the surface of liquids in which
pickles are being soaked should be re­
moved frequently.
Attempting to obtain a brighter
green color in pickles by heating
them in a copper utensil is not recom­
mended.
Copper acetate is formed
when this is done and this material is
poisonous. The use of alum to make
pickles crisp is also a poor practice
because the same result can be obtain­
ed without using double substances.
Pickles can be- made crisp by soaking
them for 24 hours in a brine made of
one pound of salt to one gallon of
water.
Hollow pickles may be caused by
faulty growth or by permitting the
cucumbers to stand too long before

The importance of agricultural ex­
periment stations to the practical far­
;mer will he shown at the annual pota­
to field day at bake City, Sept. 12,
where the teat plots contain new va­
rieties which have shown marked im­
munity to yellow dwarf disease.
Yellow dwarf is carried from In­
fected plants to healthy ones and the
most feasible method of controlling
the disease appears to be the devel­
opment of varieties which are im­
mune. The disease seriously threat­
ens the seed industry of the state, and
the warding off of this threat will be
of immense importance to potato
growers.
The Michigan State college special­
ist*! in charge of this potato breeding
work say that these new varieties
will have to be tried for two or three
years before they can say definitely
that the immunity is certain. Arti­
ficial attempts to infect the plants
with yellow dwarf have been unsuc­
cessful in trials so far.
Other experimental work at Lake
City is just as important although
not as unusual. Tests with the place­
ments of ferilizer in planting potatoes
will be interesting to potato growers
who have had poor stands in their
fields when fertilizer was mixed di­
rectly in contact with the seed potato~.
V
Twelve acres of potatoes out of the
40 now growing at Lake City are un­
der irrigation. Two methods of fur­
nishing water, porous hose and metal
pipes, are being used.
The metal
pipes are in sections and have up­
rights which are topped with revolv­
ing nozzles. The pipes can be dis­
connected and moved sideways to per­
mit irrigation of an entire field with
one lead of pipe.
Members of the staff of Michigan
state college will discuss all phases of
the experimental work during the
forenoon.
Samples of oil potatoes
will be dug and left on the ground so
that visitors can see just what effects
the different treatments have on
yields and quality of stock.
V. R. Gardner, director of th.? ex­
periment station, will talk about in­
vestigations being conducted by the
college. H. M. Moore and E. J. Wheel­
er, farm crops specialists, will have
charge of the program. George Gran­
tham will explain the relations of soils
to successful potato production, O.
E. Robey will discuss irrigation. Dr.
C. H. Munc^ will have plant diseases
for a subject and the phases of in­
sect control will be discussed by Ray
Hutson. Ashley Berridge is superin­
tendent of the Lake City station .
Manufacturers of all kinds of pota­
to machinery will exhibit and demon­
strate all the latest tools and equip­
ment needed in the production of a
potato crop. The college will have a
display tent on the grounds, where an
exhibit of many phases of experimen­
tal work will be shown.

Trends in Research in
Engineering
The greater part of engineer
Ing research has been carried on
in the past in commercial organ­
izations. While some such dig­
nify with the name of research
even crude empirical control of
materials or processes, there are
at the other extreme concerns
which carry on scientific and en­
gineering research of a high or­
der. The commercial organiza­
tion has, by ita very nature, a
point of view which Is likely to
be restricted. In the narrow sense
it Is responsible to its stockhold­
ers for a profit, and this leads to
a restriction of ita research to
the immediately profitable. In a
larger sense it is responsible to
its employees for security
against the fluctuations o! em­
ployment consequent upon short­
sightedness, and it is responsible
to the.public for the best possible
ultimate development of the
products or services it supplies.
A recognition of this broader re­
sponsibility carries with it an
appreciation of the value of re­
search on a more comprehensive
and farsighted basis. That the
more mature and socially sound
point of view has appeared at all
in our capitalistic scheme is a re­
assuring fact which is worthy of
greater emphasis than it re­
ceives. To my mind the Ameri­
can Telephone and Telegraph
Company, with its recognition of
Ita responsibility to its stockhold­
ers, its employees, and its sub­
scribers, is outstanding. Wher­
ever this advanced philosophy
guides the management, will be
found research laboratories in a
highly developed slate of ad­
vancement. for the interests of
-all in the proper progress of an
industry can be safeguarded In

The Symbol of an Ideal
The history of American industry
affords no example of lasting success
that came by chance. Instead, it
shows that enduring institutions are
products of an honest policy applied
intelligently and faithfully over a
period of years.
The vital place which the tele­
phone occupies in modern life did
not result from accident. It was won
— and is held —by supplying the
public with a service of genuine and
steadily increasing value.
To better that value is the abiding
principle of the Michigan Bell Tele­
phone Company’s policy. Even
during the recent years of sharply re­
duced revenues, years in which all
values were subjected to bitter testa,
this company did not relax in its
obligation to achieve further im­
provements in its service.
As a direct result of this policy,
the people of Michigan are receiving
a higher grade telephone service than

ever before. This statement is not
made lightly. The improvement is
revealed by carefully compiled rec­
ords of daily performance. They show
a greater speed and accuracy in han­
dling local calls; a continued de­
crease in “out-of-order” reports;
more prompt repair service; and a
greater proportion of out-of-town
messages completed while the sub­
scriber holds the line.
These records, though undramatic
in themselves, arc important as mile­
stones of progress toward complete
satisfaction for the users of this vital
public service. The improvements
they signify were not won by chance
— they did not “just happen.”
They were achieved by this com­
pany’s rigid adherence to a policy
having as its basic ideal the best
possible service for the least possible
cost that will maintain the present
standards and assure the improve­
ments of the future.

From Small Herds

DETROIT’S FAMOUS UKRANIAN
CHOIR AT BENNETT PARK

Special Classes Provided At State
Fair For Animal* Owned By
Actual Farmers.

Encouragement for the owner of
small dairy herds to exhibit his cattle
at the State Fair. Aug. 30 to Sept. 8,
is provided by eight classes for indi­
viduals in which all cattle must be­
long to actual farmers, according to
J. G. Hays, dairy specialist at Mich­
igan State college, who is supervis­
ing the dairy cattle section at the
Fair.
Jerseys will be exhibited in the Jer­
sey Parish Show, as was done last
year. Competing cattle of this breed
are selected from winners In local
parish shows. Jersey -owners-* have
an agreement that cattle from the
larger, noted herds will not be shown
against those from small herds.
The value of herd improvement
work is recognized by the provision
of a class for groups of four cows, all
from one test association and two of
which must be entered in the Far­
mers' Special class. All four of these
cows must have production records of
300 pounds fat as two year olds, 335
as three year olds, 370 as four year
olds, and 400 pounds as mature cow.
Entries in the regular open classes
are restricted to Michigan owned cat­
tle. Cattle owned by public institu­
tions can not compete. All cattle ex­
hibited must have passed a clean test
for Bangs disease within 60 days pre­
ceding the show.
Holsteins will be judged Sept 3,
Guernseys Sept. 4. and Jerseys, Ayrshires and Brown Swiss Sept. 5.

Arrangements have just been com­
pleted to bring the world’s popular

NOTICE TO PROPERTY

few weeks away, the Automobile club
of Michigan begins preparation for
equipping with safety material more
than
schools throughout the state
as a start th one of the biggest pro­
grams of child safety undertaken in
ita territory, it has been announced.
For the first time, the A. A. A. club
this year is furnishing ponchos to all
grade schools in ita territory, along
with white Sam Brown belts which
distinguish the boys. This will add to
patrol efficiency and guarantee uni­
formity of equipment for all patrols.
Not only will the ponchos protect
these young traffic heroes from in­
clement weather, but this equipment,
along with the belts, will provide a
military style appeal to the youth,
this should keep all patrols on duty at
all times, thus increasing the interest
and the vigilance of the young safety
supervisors.
The only bright spot in the traffic
problem of today is the fact that acci­
dents to children of school age have
constantly been decreasing. This com­
pares with a steady rise in injuries
and deaths to children of pre-school
age and to adults. Much of the cred­
it for this excellent record must go to
the schoolboy patrols, who every day
throughout the school term take their
posts at dangerous or busy intersec­
tions to guide fellow pupils on their
way to school safely.
Behind this
movement has been the outstanding
work of the school principal and
teacher, who have kept the patrols on
their toea

PLEASE TAKE NOTICE

An estimated decrease in the do­
mestic wheat crop for 1935. as re­
ported August 9, has caused officials
of the agricultural adjustment admin­
istration to change the requested re­
duction of wheat plantings for 1936
from 15 to 5 per cent, according to H.
A. Wallace, secretary of agriculture.
A plan to continue the crop control
program for wheat during the next
four years was announced recently.
Under-this plan, growers would sign
contracts to grow the percentage of
their basic acreage that appeared to
be needed for domestic consumption
and for export. The reduction an­
nounced at that time was 15 per cent
but the latest crop reports indicate
that a larger proportion of the basic
acreage possibly may be needed.
This change in the amount of wheat
to be grown is in line with the federal
policy of making ample provision for
all possible needs but to avoid the
production of unmarketable surpluses.
The carryover of wheat on July first
was the normal amount of 152,000,000
bushels. Severe rust damage to
spring wheat in the west lowers the
prospects of yields for the present
harvest, according to George E. Far­
rell, director of the grains division of

State Of Michigan’s August Drive
To Collect Delinquent Property Taxes
Michigan’s thousands of homeown­
ers. responding to the state’s appeal
to "pay back taxes and save your
homes," are rushing to redeem their
properties before September 1. dead­
line for payment of taxes for 1932 and
prior years without interest or penal­
ties.
Payments of delinquent taxes thruout the state are twice as heavy as
they w’ere a year ago, according to
Gus T. Hartman, ’ Deputy Auditor
General.
"Fifty-five counties show payments
totalling &gt;588,314 for the week end­
ing August 10,” Hartman reports.
"In the same period last year, these
counties collected, only &gt;296,451. The
money is rolling in faster every day."
"Actual tax payments do not tell
the real story," he said. "While a
majority of property owners are pay-

ing their back taxes in full, many
are taking advantage of the MooreHolbeck plan, which permits payment
of taxes for 1932 and prior years over
a period of 10 years without penalty.
More than &gt;4,000,000 in delinquencies
have been put back in the paying col­
umn under this plan in the first half
of this month and the rush has just
begun. This means that small home­
owners are taking advantage of the
easy payment plan and reclaiming
properties which have* long been
threatened with sale by the Auditor
General.”
County treasurers all over Mich­
igan report they have their forces
working nights and Sundays to keep
up with the rush. Many of them
have Issued appeals to the public to
mail payments to avoid long waits in
line by paying at the office.

While we are holding our commun­

hear from Washington that our new
building proposition has been approv­
ed and the federal funds allocated
which will enable us to get started
with construction work, the village
schools will open for the coming year
a week from next Monday, on Sep­
tember 9.
Superintendent Wallace and b thor­
oughly competent corps of teachers
will be on hand to greet the hundreds
of pupils who will come thronging to
, answer the bell, and in a short time
things will be going along in good
shape. The building has been thor­
oughly, cleaned and Janitor Hale Sack­
ett will have it all in apple-pie order
for the opening day.
Principal Reed has returned from
his summer school at Chicago and is
assisting Superintendent Wallace in
getting the corps of high school and
grade instructors assigned to their
rooms and classes. Mr. Wallace has
been busy registering and assigning
courses of study for the many pupils
from outside the village, and there
will be the usual fine attendance in
the high school from outlying dis­
tricts.
On the school faculty for 1935-36
are: W. D. Wallace, Superintendent;
A. A. Reed, Principal; Mabel Sutton,
Ruth Bills, Arthur E. Johnson, J. D.

Leia Roe, Carrie Caley, Frances
French, Helen Butler, Dorothy Kemp,
Zatae Eastman, visiting nurse.

The Nashville Independents finished
their home schedule Sunday afternoon
at Riverside Park, defeating Marshall
by a score of 7 to 5. .
Archie Martin pitched another fine
game for Nashville, allowing nine hits
and fanning eight. Vandenheede, for
Marshall, granted 11 safeties and
struck out four.
Nashville took the lead in the first
inning, scoring three runs when Var­
ney walked, Crockford was safe on an
error, Bill Martin walked, and Archie
Martin and Hess got safe hits. They
added one more in the third, when
Bill Martin singled, was forced at
second by A. Martin, and Hess scor­
ed Archie wih a double to center field.
Then in the eighth, when Marshall
staged a rally to take a one run ad­
vantage, Nashville put the game on
ice with three more tallies, when Ma­
son walked, stole second and scored
on Coville’s single.
Coville scored
ahead of D. Yarger when the latter
drove a homer into center field.
Marshall scored their first run in
the fifth, when Vandenheede walked
and scored on W. Weirs' safe hit.
Singles by Bachman and L. Reed pro­
duced another tally in the seventh.
Then in the eighth, three runs crossed
the plate when Hill walked, Faust
tripled, and W. Weirs, Bachman and
A. Reed singled In succession. Faust
slammed out another triple in the
ninth, but was left stranded when
Weirs and Bachman filed out

Tuesday, were brought here Tuesday
evening from Hebble’s Funeral Home
by Ralph Hess, funeral director, who
had been accompanied to Battle
Creek by Mrs. Feighner and Mrs. Del­

Three boys discovered the remains,
which were first erroneously identi­
fied as those of a Grand Trunk gate­
man, but the police were otherwise
informed at 1:30 that afternoon.
Mr. Feighner had gone out Monday
evening on business for the station,
and so far as Mrs. Bailey knew, re­
turned and went tc his room.
She
was rather alarmed at his not ap­
pearing, but having company, was
occupied, and took no action until she
read of the unidentified man found in
the mill race.
She then called the authorities,
was taken to view the remains, and
while the countenance was not natur­

personal belongings.
Mr. Feighner was subject to heart
attacks, and may have suffered one

He had no family of his own, but

Mexico In Trip To Coast.

Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Liebhauser and
daughter Helen returned Aug. 18
from an 8500 mile motor trip, which
took them from Canada to Mexico
and from Michigan to the Pacific
Coast, a trip of 45 days, in which they
had a brief visit with Charles Lieb­
hauser, who is in the U. S. Navy.
They went by the northern route,
visiting the National Parks and going
into Canada and down the Pacific
Coast to San Diego, where they saw
their son and brother, who had been
injured, and who was sent to what is
known as "sick bay.’’
They went into Mexico and then
returned by way of Boulder Dam.
They have a log of their trip, which
will serve to refresh their memory in
days to come.
While in Yosemite Park, a man
came up to them, attracted by the
Michigan license on the car. He prov­

chemical works than they are now

When that tifl^e comes the farmer

Fewest Hens On Farms In Yean* And
Supply Of Storage Eggs Is
Reduced.
Poultry owners in Michigan face an
unusually favorable prospect for bet-:
ter returns for eggs and meat, ac­
cording to the economics department
at Michigan State college.
Prices showed a seasonal decline in
the early summer months but are
higher than one year ago. The num­
ber of hens on farms is the smallest
since 1925 and the supply of eggs in
storage is much mailer than one year
ago.
Feed prices have been reduced and
the supply is ample enough to keep
price levels from advancing as they
did last year. The combination of re­
duced numbers of hens, smaller stor­
age stocks of eggs, and more reason­
able prices for poultry feed will all
work to the advantage of the poultry­
man.
Fluctuations in the numbers of
poultry on farms occur in four-year
cycles, with the number gradually in­
creasing from the low point, as now,
to a high point, which is due to occur
in 1937 or 19338. Commercial hatch­
eries produced a great number of
chicks in 1934, but feed shortages
caused the marketing of unusually
large numbers of mature birds so the
poultry population declined.
Good flock management practices
will pay extra profits as egg and meat
prices improve.
Culling the laying
flock to retain only* the best produc­
ers from tne old flock and to remove
non-producing pullets will be import­
ant With fair prices for live poultry,
culled birds will sell well because birds
which are not laying are usually in
first class condition.

The state general fund was out of
the red last week for the first time
since 1931. Revenues totalling 53,­
960,826 poured into the treasury on
one day, and the books next morning
showed a black ink balance of 3961,­
834 instead of the usual deficit. Mrs.
Fred M. Alger, who recently resigned
from the state liquor control com­

The national thirst will put nearly
$145,000,000 into state treasuries this
year, a survey on state liquor taxa­
tion made for the American Legisla­
tors’ association shows. The report
included actual or estimated revenues
of $92,230,000 Ln 24 or 32 states which
license beer and liquor dispensaries,
and-$51,798,000 revenue in 10 of the
14 states operating liquor stores. Wide
variation in "expectations'' from li­
quor taxes was shown among the
states. New York state received $14,­
490,000 from excise and license taxes
in 1934-35, a per capita revenue of
$3.20. California anticipated an an­
nual revenue of $3,800,000, or 54 cents

per capita. Ohio topped the list of
expected annual revenue among states
operating liquor stores, with an ex­
pectation of $16,196,000, or $2.38 per
capita..
Pennsylvania's anticipated
revenue was $15,000,000, or $1.53 per
capita, and Michigan anticipated $7,­
579,000, or $1.50 per capita. The re­
port pointed out that Alabama was

GOVERNOR FITZGERALD
CALLS FOR OBSERVANCE
OF CONSTITUTION DAY

Governor Fitzgerald Is calling upon
the people of the state of Michigan to
observe Sept 17 in celebration of the
148th anniversary of the drafting of
the federal constitution. He says"For nearly a century and a half,
in peace and strife, in good times and
bad, frequently amid the heated con­
flict of clashing opinion, the constitu­
tion has preserved the integrity of
our country and equal privileges of
citizenship which are the birthright of
our people. It has been a stronghold
of good government agajRsfwhich^h*.
assaults ofyiStenaFteS and would-be
dictators have beaten in vain.
“But the constitution is npt un­
changeable, nor was it ever intended
to be. John Marshall, its great ex­
pounder, said that it was intended to
endure for the ages and consequently
to be adapted to the various crises of
human affairs. This view will find
general acceptance, but the people
who value this great charter of liber­
ty will insist that if change becomes
necessary it ehall be accomplished
only on their expressed authority, in
accordance with its terms, and that
it shall not be swept away through
political nullifications.”

the young people of our
country who should be meet deeply in“ terested in the vast spending program
of our government for the reason that

line with that thought we would think
it advisable right now for the young
people to get organized for that very
purpose. Inasmuch as the Republican
party Is the only organization which
■ is definitely opposing the piling up of
■billions of dollars of debt, it would
’ appear that the young people can
work to best advantage and accom­

the success of the party which is op­

“Old men for counsel, young men for■

year, as contained in the Washington
dispatches:

and an average for the same period
from 1925 through 1934 of 125,998.

of 2,814,096 pounds.

Short-Sighted. The latter part of
June of this year the
Federal Communications commission
issued an order providing that after
Aug. 9 all interlocking directorates
shall cease. It may be that there are
circumstances in which the applica­
tion of such an order is for the bene­
fit of the general public. It is easy to
conceive that interlocking directorates
as between supposedly competing
railroads, for instance, might result in
agreements by which rates are boost­
ed and other abuses contrary to pub­
lic welfare might be framed.
As applied to the American Tele­
phone and Telegraph company, how­

work a real hardship upon,the users

with different methods of doing busi­
ness in all ways. Manifestly, the ser­
vice would not be as prompt nor as
efficient in any way, for the message
would be forced to pass through four
different and independent telephone
systems.
The effect of this order of the Fed­
eral Communications commission is to
bring about this disintegration of ser­

children of Israel spent forty years in
the wilderness before they went in
and possessed the promised land did
not indicate a change in God’s prom­
ise; nor was the land less abundant
when they finally did arrive.
Hundred of years later the teach­
ings of Jesus, imparting spiritual
light to human thought, enabled peo­
ple to see that freedom which God
bestows upon all -His children. Re­
cognized In its higher significance, the
promised land points to a state of
thought, not merely a locality. And
in its spiritual interpretation the
promised land is today within reach
of all who are willing to do the reach­
ing. The promised land is spiritualiz­
ed consciousness—heaven. Therefore,
no one need think he has dwelt Ln
some human bondage for so long that
it is not possible or worth while to
begin acquiring new spiritual mental
territory. Love’s blessing is ever at
hand to be accepted when we are
ready for it
Tn Deuteronomy we find these ring­
ing words. "Behold, the Lord thy
God hath set the land before thee; go
up and possess it as the Lord God of
thy fathers hath said unto thee; fear
not, neither be discouraged.” What
does it mean to "go up and possess”
our spiritual consciousnes ? Certain­
ly we must "go up” mentally, and
Christian Science is teaching mankind
the sure road to take and the suc­
cessful manner of walking therein. By
persistently lifting our aims and de­
sires closer to the Father, even though
time after time we seem to stumble
while wandering through the wilder­
ness of disobedience and helter-skel­
ter thinking, eventually we shall find
and possess—make intelligent use-of
—spiritual understanding.
Those who honestly desire to de­
velop their spiritual land—under­
standing—will find simple and com­

COURTS DELAY TWO
STATE PUBLICATIONS
Publication of the Public Acts of
1935, as well as the 1835 Michigan
Manual (the “Red Book”), has been
delayed because of litigation before
the state supreme court.
Preparation of the Public Acts has
been held up because of the filing, by
the State Barbers’ association, of a
petition for a writ of mandamus to
compel Orville E. Atwood, Secretary
of State, to include a “barber" bill in
the Public Acts of the 1935 session.
Completion of the Michigan Man­
ual cannot be undertaken until in­
cumbency of the office of Superintend­
ent of Public Instruction is determin­
ed by the supreme court. When, on
July 1, Dr. Paul F. Voelker, unsuc­
cessful candidate to succeed himself
in this position, retained physical pos­
session of the office, Harry S. Toy,
Attorney General, filed in behalf of
Dr. Eugene B. Elliott, a petition for
a writ of quo warranto, challenging
Dr. Voelker's right to retain office.
The supreme court issued a summons
of quo warranto; on September 4.
briefs were submitted for the princi­
pals in litigation, and oral arguments
were heard.
The case will be disposed of either
by dismissal of Toy's petition, or by
issuance of judgment of ouster for
Dr. Voelker.
Elliott was appointed
Superintendent of Public Instruction
by Gov. Frank D. Fitzgerald, after
the accidental death, June 22, of Mau­
rice R. Keyworth, successful candi­
date to that office at the last April
election. Keyworth was scheduled to
take office July 1.
Pending settlement of both legal
actions, all work possible on both
books has been completed by the De­
partment of State.
President Roosevelt has allotted
$20,218,000 of work relief funds to
provide WPA jobs for 54,199 women
in 41 states and the District of Col­
umbia. Among the activities are can­
ning vegetables and making clothing
for the unemployed, and a number of
white collar projects. These include
research and special surveys, land­
scape
beautification, transcribing
reading matter into braille for Jbe
blind, and work in community service
centers.

CUT THIS COUPON

in the country, Abner E. Lamed, state

Council, today reviewed a recent ra­
dio address by Morris L .Cooke, Ru­
ral Electrification Administrator.
"The aim of the administration,"
Larr.ed said, "is to co-operate with the
farmers of the country to provide
electric light and power for their
farms. The farmers of any commun­
ity have four different plans for ac­
complishing this purpose from which
to choose:
First, the electrification could be
accomplished by the formation of
farm cooperatives or profit-sharing
organizations.
Second, by the state, or a political
subdivision of the state, such as a
power district or a municipally.
Third, through private utility com­
panies with or without financial aid
from the government.
Fourth, the lines may be built
wholly under federal auspices.
"With these alternative means of­
fered," Larned said, "there is little
reason why any progressive farming
community should be without the
benefits of electricity."
In his radio address, which was
broadcast over the National Farm
and Home hour. Administrator Cooke
pointed out the need of electric pow­
er in meeting the problems of irriga­
tion, flood control, and soil erosion.
On the latter subject, Cooke said:
"Many believe that soil erosion has
gone too far to be checked.
I dis­
agree. I feel confident that by deter­
mined, concerted action, soil erosion
can and will be stopped. Cheap pow­
er—plentiful and widely distributed
through rural areas—will not only
help to rebuild American agriculture
but constitute a major contribution
to the nation’s offensive against soil
erosion."
Cooke, in his address, pointed out
how the individual farmer could be of
assistance in making rural electrifica­
tion a reality.
“Your part," said Cooke to the far­
mers, "initially, is to cooperate with
your neighbors. Find out how many
farmers living within say five or ten
miles of your home in any direction,
would pay for electricity if they could
get it at a moderate price. Ask them
about how much of it they would use
and for what purposes—grinding feed,
beating water, cooking, preserving
food in an electric refrigerator and.
of course, lighting the home and
pumping the water. * When you have
gathered these facts send them in to
us: ‘Rural Electrification Administra­
tion. Washington, D. C.* "
Larned explained that the Rural
Electrification Administration also
will furnish explanatory pamphlets to
all persons Interested in the subject.

An improvement in the demand for
butter is expected to prevent further
seasonal rise, according to the econ­
omics department at Michigan State
college.
Narrowing of the margin between
butter prices in New York and Lon­
don has discouraged the shipment of
foreign butter into the United States.
The New York price was only 4 1-2
cents more than the London price for
92 score butter in early July.
Prices for whole milk decreased in
Michigan from fl.65 in May to $1.45
in June but the price paid by distrib­
utors for class 1 milk was maintained
in most markets. The decline in price
on whole milk was for surplus which
could not be sold as fluid milk.
The federal farm prices report, is­
sued July 15, predicts that even if
butter production continues larger
than one year ago there will be
enough improvement in purchasing
power of the public to maintain or
improve prices during the remainder
of the butter storage season.
Exceptionally good pasture condi­
tions have permitted herd owners to
obtain high milk production from
herds this year, while last season’s
drought was cutting down the milk
supply. Feed grain prices have de­

years ago! Ho purchased the first
ticket issued by a transcontinental
air service!
Six years ago this country expe­
rienced a tremendous awakening to
the possibilities of scheduled air
transportation, and the company
which is now American Airlines
took a step as startling to the times
as the first voyage of Columbus in
1492, and established a coast to
coast route, flying by day, using
trains by night, and covering the
distance in sixty-eeven hours?
Dey Flying Only

Night passenger flying was un­
heard of at that time; intermediate
landing fields, and lighted airways
had not been established.
Mr. Balfe left New York by rail at
5:00 p. m. on June 14,1929, arriving
in Cleveland at 8:05 the following
morning, where he breakfasted
and boarded a Ford trl-motor plane,
the last word in speed and luxury.
He flew to Garden City, Kansas,
via Chicago and Kansas City in ten
hours, landing there at 5:20 p. m.

changed the direction of its trans*

flying for several years the famous
Southern Transcontinental, "The
Fair Weather" route, between New
York and Los Angeles, via Nash­
ville, Dellas, El Paso and Phoenix;
covering the distance In twenty
hours—less than one-third of the
time of the historic journey of 1929.
In line with their initial policy of
having passengers sleep while trav­

went into the market and developed

Ralf Walker, 03. native at Bellevue,
who over a period of 39 years tn busi­
ness on the west coast, had gained
the title of Merchant Prince of the
Pacific Coast, through his stores.
Walker's, Inc., died suddenly on Wed­
nesday of last week in New York
City, where he had gone on a buying
trip.
Mr. Walker, whose first employment
was in a grocery in Bellevue, went to
California 35 years ago for his health
and soon established his own store in
a small building.
Later that building was replaced
by a 10-story structure, and as the
business expanded other stores were
built at Long Beach and San Diego.
Surviving him are his widow, the
former Eliza Fitzgerald of Bellevue;
a brother, Bert Walker of Battle
Creek; a half sister, Mrs. J. W. Mad­
ison of Battle Creek; and a half bro­
ther, Harvey Billingsley of near Bel­
levue,
Fred Fitzgerald and MLss
Henna Fitzgerald of Bellevue and Guy
Fitzgerald of Battle Creek are Mrs.
Walker's sister and brothers. Mr. and Mra J. C. Furniss were
friends of the Walkers, and their son.
Louis Furniss, now located in Grand
Rapids, and who was resident on the
Pacific Coast several years, was in
the employ of Mr. Walker for a time.

Water works for Vermontville are
practically assured as a gift from
the government, according to The
Echo, which states the WPA project
will cost around $12,000, of which the
government will give the village of
Vermontville approximately $8,000,
leaving $4,000 or less to be paid by
the village.
It’s a self liquidating proposition
with no bond issue. A WPA engineer
met with the council and $125 was
voted for a preliminary survey.

DATA TO BE SOUGHT

Owners of automobiles, who apply
for 1936 license plates, will be asked
one question on the application blank
which has never been asked in prev­

The question will be:
“When does your operator's license
expire?"
The decision to embody this ques­
tion on the application blanks for
1936 license plates has been made by
Louis R. Morony, Director of the Mo­
tor Vehicle Divisin of the Department
of State. The decision was endorsed
by the executive committee of the
Michigan Safety and Traffic Directors’
association, meeting recently in the
East Lansing headquarters of the
Michigan State Police.
The original proposal included re­
commendations that the giving of this
information be made a condition of
the issuance of the plate; Morony,
however, chose to include the ques­
tion merely as a device for reminding
owners and operators that their oper­
ators' licenses have expirations dates
on them, under the uniform operators’
license act of 1931. Applicants for
licenses will be asked to give this in­
formation merely as a matter of co­
operation with the department.
With some 200,000 operators of cars
being unlicensed today, the expecta­
tion is that the majority of them, be­
ing forgetful rather than intentional­
ly unlicensed, will thus be reminded
of their deliquency. It is the belief
that virtually no one will have the
temerity to ask for a license plate
while actually signing his name to a
statement that his operator's license
has expired.

Orchards.
Now that there is a chance to make
a profit from a crop of wheat In Mich­
igan Lt become important to remem­
ber that the Hessian fly should be
controlled by observing the fly-free
seeding dates recommended by the
entomology department at Michigan
State college.
Field survey’s made this summer by
that department show that the fiy has
increased in the past few years and
will cause serious damage in fields
sown before the proper time. The
control of the fly depends upon seed­
ing the wheat after the time when the
fly deposits eggs on sprouting grain.
Correct seeding dates vary in dif­
ferent places in Michigan, due to the
more northerly location of some wheat
growing sections and to a lesser de­
gree to the influence of Lake Mich­
igan. Higher lands in some counties
can be seeded earlier than fields on
bottom lands.
It is possible to compute an average
date for each county after which
wheat can be seeded safely, and the
entomology department has prepared
a table of these dates. The earliest
safe seeding date is Sept 2 to 12 on
high ground in Otsego county. The
latest dates are Sept 23 to Oct 2 on
low fields in -Berrien and St. Joseph
counties.
Every county agricultural agent
has a complete list of fly-free dates in
all counties. Farmers should ask him
for the local dates as he is familiar
with the locations of the farms and
can give exact information.

A very popular tourist the Alaba­
ma moth, is new visiting Michigan in
search of ripe fruit which Lt damages
seriously enough to make unsalable,
according to the entomology depart­
ment at Michigan State college.
The Alabama moth is one of the
few moths which have mouth parts
and can eat Ln the adult stage by
chewing food materials. The larval
stages of other moths do most of the
damage that is charged against thia
class of insects.
•
Ripe peaches are the favorite food,
in Michigan, for the Alabama moth.
No reproduction of this insect occurs
here, and the individuals which mi­
grate here from further south are
killed by cold weather. To prevent
losses of fruit from attacks by the
moth, it is only neecssary to pick the
fruit while it is still firm and then
store it where the moths can not
reach it
Some growers have found it possi­
ble to protect the fruit from moths by
picking the peaches while still firm
fleshed, stroking them in crates, and
covering the crates with mosquito net­
ting. Screened storage houses are ef­
fective but more costly.
The moth scrapes the surface of
ripe peaches to obtain juice. Uneaten
juice runs out from the break in the
fruit, collects on the surface, and mil­
dews and rots start rapid growth on
the surface of the fruit

Ideas Often Wrong
About Dairy Feed* Quick Recult* at Low Cost—A New* Want Advt
Alfalfa Given Too Little Credit, Cot­
tonseed Not Injurious To
Cows.
Tests made of rations for dairy
cows show that many generally ac­
cepted ideas concerning these feeds
are wrong, according to the dairy
husbandry department at Michigan
State college.
One of the commonest mistakes
concerns the value of Alfalfa hay, as
many feeders think that, even when
sufficient quantities of alfalfa are fed
to supply all necessary protein, the
protein is not the right kind.
Two equal lots of dairy cows were
fed at the college to settle this argu­
ment. One lot received ground yel­
low com, ground oats, wheat bran,
cottonseed meal, oil meal, salt, and
steamed bone meal. The other cows
were fed a mixture of ground oats,
ground rolled oats, alfalfa leaf meal,
and common salt
The feeding period extended over a
period of four months. The cows
were as nearly equal as possible in
production ability. The cows fed the
complex grain mixture produced nine
pounds more of butterfat and 304
pounds less of milk than those on the
oat and alfalfa mixture.
The total
production for the cows on the simple
mixture was 27,186 pounds of milk
and 852 pounds of butterfat. Main­
tenance of body weights was equal on
the two rations.
Another misconception about dairy
feeds is the belief that cottonseed
meal injures dairy animals if fed in
large quantities. This has been dis­
proved by trials at the college and by
riculture. No injury to the general
health of animals fed large amounts
of cottonseed meal nor any udder
troubles were caused by the meal ev­
en when the feeding continued over

Expansion of the state ferry ser­
vice at the Straits of Mackinac is
seen as a possibility following an in­
spection last week by state highway
department and University of Mich­
igan authorities.
Murray D. Van Wagoner, state
highway commissioner; Herbert C.
Sadler, dean of the college of engin­
eering at the University; and G. D.
Kennedy, business manager and con­
sulting engineer for the state high­
way department, were at Mackinaw
City and St Ignace on the inspection
trip.
The inspection came just after the
Labor Day holidays when traffic
across the Straits reached an all­
time peak. The ferries operated by
the state highway department carried
2,625 cars on Sunday before Labor
Day for a new record. The previous
high was 2,030 automobiles on Aug.
10 of this year.
Although he would not comment on
the possibility of adding a new boat
to the ferry fleet. Commissioner Van­
Wagoner said the inspection was
made to “determine the need for ex­
pansion of the service.” He added
that the study had been planned since
early summer “when it became ap­
parent that we would have a record
season."
Dean Sadler is a recognized marine
engineering authority. Before he was
elevated to dean he was head of the
marine engineering division at the
University.
Another indication of the heavy
traffic this summer at the Straits is
found in the necessity of using the
Chief Wawatam,
privately-owned
boat, during rush periods. This boat
has never been used by the state-high­
way department in other years ex­

Premium Checks
May Be Secured
Harold J. Foster, treasurer of Bar­

ium checks are ready for exhibitors
and can be had by calling at his office
in the court house any time during of­
fice hours.
The Barry county Fair is paying
100 per cent of its premiums as ad­
vertised in their premium catalogue.
Several Fairs in this section of the
state have failed to be able to pay100 per cent of their premium awards
this year.
The checks are made against the
National bank of Hastings and this is
the only place that these checks can
be cashed for full face value. As it
will be necessary for every exhibitor
to cash his check at this bank, Mr.
Foster thought it useless to send the

chance on their being lost

ED TO NASHVILLE
Km. L L Dewey New Dist Supt.
Some Other Appointment* Of
Interest Here.
Local Methodists and others of the
community are pleased at the reap­
pointment of Rev. M. E. Hoyt to the
local church, and for that of Rev. L.
L. Dewey as district superintendent.
Mr. Hoyt filled the vacancy caused
by the resignation of Rev. S. J. Fran­
cis, and was returned here last year,
and now for another year. The re­
quest for his return this year is evi­
dence that his church is pleased with
his work. He is also wen liked in the
community.
Mr. Dewey was formerly pastor at
Hastings, and last year’s Conference
gave him the appointment at Burton
Heights church. Grand Rapids. Mr.
Dewey succeeds Dr. Hugh H. Ken­
nedy, who retired at this session be­
cause of iU health, but remains head
of the Bay View Assembly and con­
tinues, his Grand Rapids residence.
Dr. Kendrick succeeds Dr. Clark S.
Wheeler as superintendent of Clark
Home, and Dr. Wheeler has been
named executive secretary of the en­
dowment campaign for the Clark
Home.
Other new district superintendents
in the Conference, besides Dr. Dewey,
are: Rev. Henry W. Ellenger, former­
ly of Simpson chufeh. Kalamazoo,
named superintendent of Kalamazoo
district to succeed Dr. Kendrick; and
Rev. Albert H. Pellowe of Petoskey,
named district superintendent to suc­
ceed Rev. Cecil E. Pollock, whose term

M. D. McKean of Middleville was
named pastor of Epworth church in
Grand Rapids. Rev. A E. Larsen of
Augusta, Socialist candidate for gov­
ernor, was allowed to withdraw from
the Conference and surrender his
ministry. Dr. Kendrick, in whose dis­
trict Mr. Larson’s pastorate was sit­
uated, said that nn pressure had been
used to obtain Larson’s resignation,
but that Larson resigned because he
realized he “could not feel at home in
the Conference."

Cucumber Season
Now About Over
Kraut Making 1, About To Bogin.
Cabbage Is Not As Good
As Usual.

What started out as a quality and
a quantity record season locally in
cucumbers for Hlrsch Bros. 4 Co.,
Inc., began slipping when the almost
continuous warm and muggy w’eather
changed to cooler.
And now the kraut season is due to
start, probably this week, but from
reports of cabbage conditions, this
will not be a banner season. In the
past there have been tons and tons
and tons of the finest cabbage coming
to the local station, week after week.

New Bids For Well
Sent Out Tuesday
Bids for wells, test and permanent,
for the new water supply were to
have been opened on Monday night at
the regular council meeting, but there
was another delay occasioned in­
stead, the state health department
advising the village Monday that an­
other test was unnecessary, so new
bids just for a permanent well were
mailed out Tuesday, replies for which
will probably be in for action the last
of the week.

Hog Cholera Seems
To Have Been Checked
Apparently the hog cholera, which
has taken quite a toll on several farms
seems to have checked by vaccination.
However close attention ahould be
continued by hog owners and a vet­
erinarian called at once, on the slight­
est indication of a powible outbreak.

Michigan agriculture is in a favor­
ed position this season, according to
the September 1 report of the federalstate Crop Reporting service released
by Verne H. Church. U. 8- Senior Ag­
ricultural Statistician, and James F.
Thomson, Commissioner Of Agricul­
ture. Michigan leads fill state north
. of the Mason-Dixie line with a com­
bined indicated yield per acre figure
for major crops more than 19 per
cent above the 10-year average. This
represents an increase of about 4.5
points in prospective crop yields since
August 1. Com, dry field beans, po­
tatoes, buckwheat, and hay crops all
showed some improvement during the
past month while oats, barley, and
all of the major tree fruits registered
slight declines. The principal hazard
faced by Michigan growers on Sept. 1
was the possibility of early frosts
which would cause material damage
to com, beans, buckwheat, and pota­
toes as much of the acreage of these
crops was planted late.
On the basis of Sept 1 condition re­
ports this year, Michigan's 1935 field
bean crop is indicated at 4,267,000
bags of 100 pounds each which figure
compares with a 5-year average crop,
1928 32, of 3.244,000 bags. Weather
conditions during August were gener­
ally ideal for the setting of pods but
much of the acreage will need several
weeks more of favorable weather to
mature a crop. Very few fields had
been pulled at the.time the Sept 1
reports were filled out The U. S. dry
edible bean crop is indicated at 13,­
303 000 bags as against 10,369,006
harvested in 1934 and a 5-year aver­
age crop of 11,858,000 bags.
The
Sept 1 report, is 328.000 bags less
than the August I'forecast. decreases
in New York. Idaho. Colorado, and
New Mexico being largely offset py
improved prospects in Michigan. Of
the increase of 2,934,000 bags in the
193J indicated total U. S. crop com­
pared with that for-1934, more than
. one-half or 1,578,000 bags occurs in
the 4 pinto bean-producing states.
Michigan potato growers report
some improvement in the yield out­
look for this crop despite.poor stands.
* light set, and some damage from
blight In many of the northern
counties the outcome of the crop is
largely dependent upon weather con­
ditions after the date of this report.
For the state as whole, the Sept. 1
indicated production of 29,480.000
bushels is about 14 per cent less than
the large harvest of 34,304,000 bushels
in 1934 but about 28 per cent more
than the 5-year average crop, 1928­
32. Dry weather and high tempera­
tures during August damaged the
crop in the Eastern Surplus Late
states but weather conditions were
favorable in most of the other Late
states except Nebraska. The Sep. 1
■ indication is for a total U. S. produc­
tion 1 per cent less than that forecast
on August 1, 3 per cent less than the
crop harvested last year, but about 3
per cent more Uian the 5-year aver­
age production. For the 18 surplus
states the indicated production at the
time of the Sept. 1 report was 258,­
139,000 bushels as against 272,274,000
bushels harvested last year, and a 5­
year average of 251,873,000 bushels.
Although handicapped by a late
start, Michigan’s 1935 com acreage
made rapid growth during July and
early August and most fields have
eared well. Unless this crop is dam­
aged by early frosts or a wet fall,
the Michigan production, indicated
at 49,700.000 bushels, promises to be

small grains since harvest. Returns
per acre for cats and. barley are prov­
ing to be smaller than indicated a
month ago although slightly above
the 10-year average. The Sept. 1
forecast is for a Michigan oat .crop of
41,056.000 bushels and a barley pro­
duction of 4,7M,000 bushels.. In 1934,
when the state's production of these
grains was markedly below average
because of the spring drought, Mich­
igan farmers harvested an oat crop of
28,717,000 bushels and a barley crop
of 3,384,000 bushels.
The indicated production of the
principal Michigan tree fruits is
somewhat smaller than reported on
August 1, principally the result of
widespread damage from fungous dis­
eases. Sept 1 indications on these
crops are as follows, the 1934 har­
vested figures being given in paren­
thesis: apples, total crop, 9,443,000
bushels (6,464,000); apples, commer­
cial crop, 5,680,000 bushels (4,224.­
000); peaches, 1,919,000 bushels (517,­
000); pears, 653,000 bushels (745,­
000); plums, 256,000 bushels (244,­
000); grapes, 62,700 tons (61,100).

Michigan potato growers, the State
Department of Agriculture,
and
Michigan State college are embarking
on a campaign to prove to users of
potatoes that those grown in Mich­
igan can be equal in quality to those
grown in any other state.
Producers in all the major potato
producing sections in the state will
select samples of U. S. Fancy and of
U. S. No. 1 table stock and send them
to Detroit. These samples will be
placed in store windows, hotel lob­
bies, at markets, and in other places
where consumers can see them.
A
group of prominent men interested in
the potato business have formed an
organization to encourage the market­
ing of high quality Michigan potatoes
and to supervise the details of the ex­
hibit of such potatoes.
The officers of the association are
F. P. Hibst, Cadillac, president;
Frank Slupp, Gaylord, vice president;
H. A. Reiley, Bellaire, secretary­
treasurer; and H. C. Moore, East
Lansing, executive secretary. Direc­
tors are John Woodman. Paw Paw;
Percy King, Pontiac Albert Kipfer,
Stephenson; Charles Lanphierd, Mid­
land; R. V. Tanner, Jackson; Charles
Wood, Kingsley; Albert Dietz, Rogers
City; Floyd Jenkins, Kalkaska; Jas.
Redpath, Kalamazoo; and Howard
Smith, Capac.
Most of the Michigan potatoes
which have not met the approval of
consumers have been tubers which
were harvested before they were fully
ripe. Michigan table stock which is
fully mature is equal in cooking qual­
ity to potatoes from any source. Bak­
ing potatoes can be grown as well
and as easily in Michigan as else­
where.
The problem confronting the new
growers organization is to persuade
farmers to grade their potatoes to
meet the demands of consumers and
to plant their potatoes early enough
in the season so that they are fully
ripe when dug.

vue and Mrs. J. W. Madison of Bat­

Angeles’ "Merchant Prince.”

sis was reported at Lake Odessa, the

�Richard and the SerapU.

In order to stop the British mili­
tary operations in the upper Mississ­
ippi Valley, it was planned to cut off
their communication with eastern
Canada by obtaining command of the
Great Lakes. To do this, Master­
Commandant Oliver H. Perry collect­
ed a fleet of nine vessels on Lake
Erie, having built five of the ships
from green timber, and Barclay built
a similar fleet of six British vessels.
On Sept 10, 1813, the two home-made
fleets met at the western end of the
lake. On his flagship. Perry hoisted
a blue flag bearing the dying words
of Captain Lawrence, "Don't give up
the Ship!" The Lawrence and two
small ships soon hauled ahead of the
remaining United States ships and
became engaged by the entire British
squadron. The Lawrence was soon a
wreck; and Perry, having fired the
last effective gun with his own hands,
rowed in an open boat to the Niagara
with Ilia 13 year old brother and a
few survivors. Then he brought the
other ships into action and soon won
the engagement He returned to the
Lawrence to receive the swords of
the surrendering British officers. He
reported the victory on the back of an
old letter, saying, "We have met the
enemy and they are ours—two ships.
■ two brigs, one schooner, and one
slop.'
The victory regained the
Michigan-Detroit territory for the
United States and had a marked ef­
fect on the peace negotiations. Per­
ry’s original flag bearing the words.
"Don’t give up the Ship!", has been
carefully preserved and is on display
in Memorial Hall at the United States
Naval Academy where it serves as an
inspiration for the nation’s future na­
val officers.

telephones. The United States* share

more than &gt;100,000,000 spent by the
AAA last year for purchase of live­
stock in drouth areas. The bureau of
agricultural economics included the
livestock purchases in estimating the
total cash farm income. During the
first six months of 1935, bureau rec­
ords showed, cash income from farm
marketings in the United States to­
talled &gt;2,670,000,000 compared to &gt;2,466,000,000 for the same period Ln
1934. Income from livestock and live­
stock products was reported to total
&gt;1,699,000,000, an increase of more
than &gt;300,000,000 over the first six
months of 1934. Rental and benefit
payments under the AAA programs
during the first six months of the year
were &gt;285,000.000 compared to &gt;149,000,000 for the same period last year.
Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg paid
tribute to his Louisiana colleague,
the late Senator Huey Long. He des­
cribed Long as a man "often wild, al­
ways intolerant, but possessed of the
finest mind I ever came in contact
with. It is something more than an
accident,"
Vandenberg
declared,
"when one man can hold a state like
Louisiana in his hand and make him­
self a national power with whom
Presidents are forced to reckon."
—Marshall is planning an onion
festival. The 1935 onion crop in that
vicinity is estimated at least a third

AAA reeorda

These figures were compiled by
statisticians of the American Tele­
phone and Telegraph Company from
Information received from the vari­
ous foreign countries.
Their survey shows that there Is
a more extensive telephone devel­
opment in smaller communities and
rural districts in the United States
than prevails in other countries. For
example. Great Britain has only 3.18
telephones per 100 population in
communities with less than 50,000
inhabitants; Germany and France
have a development of 2.69 and 1.84
respectively in such localities; while
the United States shows a develop­
ment of 9.76 telephones per 100 pop­
ulation in communities with" leas
tbaaz50.000 inhabitants.
Next to the United States, Canada
has the largest number of tele­
phones in North America and also

tries in Europe with more than a
million telephones each. Germany
has nearly 8,000,000, Great Britain
and Northern Ireland over 2,200,000,
and France 1,349,520.
The next country in Europe In
number of telephones is Sweden,
with 590,914, followed by Russia,
with 576,832; Italy, with 482,507;
Denmark, with 364,727; and Switzer­
land, with 363,655. However, on/the
basis of population rather than ac­
tual numbers of telephones, the sys­
tem serving Great Britain and
Northern Ireland is ahead of Ger­
many; but outranking them all is
Denmark, with 9.99 telephones per
100 of population, followed by Swe­
den, with 9.5L Then come Switzer­
land, with 8.81, and Norway, with 7.
Most of the telephones in Asia
are located in Japan, which has 3.13
per cent of all the world’s tele­
phones. There were, on January 1.
DISTRIBUTION OF THE WORLD’S TELEPHONES
1934, 1,420.539 telephones in Asia,
and more than 1,000.000 of these
were in Japan.
The Union of South Africa leads
the African continent both In num­
ber of telephones and In telephone
development on a population basis.
Australia has almost half a million
telephones and New Zealand over
150,000. Telephone development on
a population basis also makes a good
showing In both of these countries.
In fact, next to the United States

In Europe, Germany has a greater

School News EXCURSION TO FALLS
IS A GREAT SUCCESS

Fr&lt;*shn.iun-Sophon&gt;ore Kush.
Tuesday afternoon the annual class
rush, soccer game, potato race, and
general "ruff" house between the
freshmen and sophomores occurred at
the athletic field. The activities op­
ened with a flag rush. Each class had
their flag at the top of a ten foot pole
and the object was to capture the oth­
er’s flag. At the end of fifteen min­
utes no progress had been made so it
was declared a draw. Next came the
girls* tug of war, which was won by
the ninth grade girls. The sand bag
race was won by the sophs after a ten.
minute struggle. "Leaping Lena” Al­
len won first in the girls' sack race,
covering the required distance in the
remarkable time of 53.3 seconds. The
last event, the boys' tug of war, ar­
rived with the score 180 for the
“frosh" and 110 for the "sophs." Since
this event counted 100 points it was
necessary for each clajh to win if they
wished to win the meet. For five min­
utes it was a draw—then over-en­
thusiastic partisans for each team
leaped into the fray. It was declared
no contest by the referee and will be
repeated in the near future, when the
winner of the meet will be decided.
The losers treat the winners.
On Tuesday evening Mr. and Mrs.
L. W. Feighner received at their
Thornapple lake summer home, the
members of the board of education
and the teachers of the Nashville
school, together with their families,
for a co-operative supper, which was
served on the lawn to 33. with games
as an after diversion. It was a de­
lightful affair.
There was no school on Friday, as
all the teachers went to Dowling on
Thursday night to attend the Barry
county teachers’ encampment spon­
sored by the Barry county Health
Unit and the W. K. Kellogg Founda­
tion, which continued over Friday and
Saturday, and was thoroughly enjoy­
ed in its varied aspects with regard to
health in the schools.
•
Friday afternoon comes the first
football contest at Lake Odessa, and
we hope the home boys carry off the
honors.
The Ag-He Fair dates are October
7-8. Plans are much the same as last
year but it is expected to be larger
and of course better. Announcements
will be out shortly.
Plans are under way to provide re­
cognized instruction in band and or­
chestra music for those enrolled in
school, but those availing themselves
of this oportunity will have to furnish
their own instruments and music.
Regular instruments will be played.
The plan calls for an additional teach­
er to handle the band and orchestra.
In farm crops department, the boys
have been’making trips for studying
field corn. The last trip was to Jen­
sen’s, and Wednesday they visited
Harry Green's.

FOOTBALL SQUAD READY
FOR OPENING GAME
A squad of 20 candidates for the
1935 Nashville high school gridiron
machine is practicing daily for the
opening game'of the season at Lake
Odessa Friday. Sept 27.
The team will be light this year,
with the line averaging about 155 Ibe.
and the backfield about 156 lbs.
A visit to the gridiron reveals that
speed, deceptive ball handling and
passing will characterize the attack
of the N. ti. S. football team this fall.
Faced with a decided shortage of
capable reserves, Coach Arthur John­
son is grooming his men very careful­
ly and the squad appears to be in fine
physical condition for the opening
contest with Lake Odessa.
The probable line-up: Dtamante.

Fire Prevention
Week, October 6

The death of Miss Luna Stillwell,
60, which occurred last week at Nash­
ville, recalls building operations to
many Tradesman readers. Miss Still­
well's father, "Walt" Stillwell. who
passed away several years ago, was a
bricklayer of rare ability. He would
lay one-half of a 140 brick wall as
fast as six ordinary bricklayers and it
required as many tenders to keep him
supplied with brick and "mort" as it
did the six masons. Generally he was
first to call "Line-Up." He worked
on hundreds of store buildings erect­
ed in Western Michigan for merchants
back through the gay '90’s. As Mr,
Stillwell's speed was six times that
permitted by the bricklayers union,
he was a constant bone of contention
with the slovens who idle away their
time, in accordance with union rules.
Knowing his speed record, people
who were about to have building done
would not sign contracts for construc­
tion unless a paragraph was inserted
in the contract that Sillwell was to be
employed on the job. — Michigan

Funeral Sen-ices Sunday At Dowling
M. E. Church Were Largely
Attended.

James G. Smith, 50, well known
Dowling resident and brother of Sam
Smith of the Nashville vicinity, pass­
ed away at 1:30 a. m. Friday at Pen­
nock hospital after a short illness.
Mr. Smith was born in Baltimore,
Barry county, on Nov. 11, 1884. where
save for three years on an Assyria
farm, be lived until his passing. He
attended the Dowling school and a
Battle Creek Business college, but
chose farming as his caUlng. In this
successful vocation he was ably sec­
onded by his wife, formerly Ella M.
Garnett, of that vicinity, whom he
married December 9, 1911.
To them were bom two daughters,
Katharine, Mrs. Leo,Geller, and Mar­
jorie, Mrs. Jerry Steele.
In their
farm home near Dowling, three
granddaughters. Mary Ellen, Martha
and Helen Geller, were welcome vis­
itors. Other close relatives are the
father, Max Smith of Dowling; three
brothers, Jay Smith of Battle Creek,
Roy Smith of Dowling and Sam Smith
of Nashville; and two sisters. Miss
Elizabeth Smith of Dowling and Mrs.
Hale Clemons of Charlotte.
Jamie, as he was known to all, liv­
ed a very quiet and full life in his
short half century. "In plain devot­
edness to duty, in work done squarely
and in unwasted days” he excelled.
Not only is his family bereaved but
the community with which he was so
intimately, so kindly and bravely Iden­

tified.
After a private service at the home
at 2 p. m., the remains were taken to
the Dowling M. E. church, which was
filled to overflowing with relatives and
friends assembled in a last tribute to
one whom they loved. A former pas­
tor of the Dowling church, Rev. H. A.
Weston of Allegan, conducted the
service with a fine tribute to his for­
mer friend. There was a wealth of
floral offerings, which took on a new
beauty as the sunlight came through
upon them at the cemetery as the af­
ternoon waned.
Quite a number from this vicinity
attended the funeral services.

The first meeting of the Nashville
Chamber of Commerce for the fall
and winter months was held last
Monday evening at the Odd Fellow
temple, a committee of Rebekahs ser­
ving a fine supper. Twenty-nine
members and one guest. J. C. McDerby, were present.
Following supper a period of sing­
ing was indulged in. with Rev. Hoyt
as leader, and Mrs. Gail Lykins fur­
nishing the piano accompaniment
The business session developed into
a discussion of various subjects. The
establishment of a branch bank here
seemed most certain and at an early
date, according to E. D. Olmstead,
chairman of the committee working
on this matter.
Rooster Day was again discussed,
but was finally left to the committee
in charge of same to make arrange­
ments for this event.

Coonlng watermelons has always

However, a dozen or more high
school boys rustled a supply from the
patch of Arthur Bassett, experienced
truck gardener, Thursday night with­
out encountering trouble, at least just
then, went on to the Beigh school
where one of Mr. Bassett's daughters
teaches, where they not only feasted
but used the school bouse as a target
and messed up the school yard badly.
Seemingly a "good time was had by
all!”
But that was before they had been
contacted by Deputy Sheriff Lorbeck,
who gave them some good advice.
Added to this the raiders, 'tis said,
each dug up 50c to repay Mr. Bassett,
which sum would have financed a
melon feast entirely within the law.

President Roosevelt in a proclama­
tion issued by the White House, de­
signated the week of October 6 as
“Fire Prevention Week" throughout
the country.
The President called attention to
the annual loss of life and property in
fires and said it was the duty of ev­
ery citizen to aid in prevention work.
"I particularly urge state and muni­
cipal officers, civic and commercial
organizations, school authorities, the
clergy, and the press to emphasize the
danger of and needless waste caused
by fire and to encourage the study of
ways and means whereby fire hazards
and the disastrous consequences of
fire may be prevented as far as possi­ Andrew Green, 75,

Harry O. Mohrmann, receiver of tha
Nashville State bank and several oth­
ers, narrowly escaped serious and pro­
bable fatal injury Thursday night in a
motor accident at Eaton Rapids, and
has since been in the Harriet Chap­
man hospital there.
There were lacerations of the right
side of the face and neck, not too far
from the jugular vein, from broken
windshield, which called for a num­
ber of stitches.
He was severely
burised, and there was a fracture of
the left ankle. H. B. Andrews called
on him Tuesday and found him im­
proving and expecting to make the
trip to his home in Detroit the last of
the week, to finish his recuperative
period.
Mr. Mohrmann and Martin Hansen,
manager of the A. M. Smith Cold
Storage Co. of Eaton Rapids, were
driving in a fog, and in making a
sharp turn at the comer of Canal end
Michigan streets, the Hansen car left
the pavement and struck a large tree
in the E. A. Merwin yard.
The men weer taken to the hospi­
tal, and Mr. Hansen was able to go
home soon after he was given atten­
tion.
Mr. Mohrmann hopes to return to
his duties soon.

Slugged, Lockrd In Vault.
The Vicksburg Exchange, which
serves as a currency exchange and
temporary’ depository for. Vicksbufg
merchants but does no' banking, was
robbed of $6,401 in currency by a ner­
vous bandit Monday morning after
the manager, Ferris H. Oswalt, 28.
had been slugged. An hour and a
half after the robbery, Carl Springer,
a mailman, entered the bank and
found the owner and manager in a
semi-conscious condition locked in­
side tbe vault Within a few hours
1000 peace officers were searching for
the bandit and two accomplices, who
fled toward Kalamazoo in a black
sedan. Later a car answering the
description was found abandoned in
Grand Rapids.
Oswalt said that after entering the
Exchange and after unlocking the
front door he went to the wash room
and found the bandit inside upon bis
return, and was ordered then to open
up. He turned to look at the man as
he entered the cage, and was slugged
with the fellow’s revolver butt. The
vault keys were then taken from his
pocket and the robbery carried out
after the time lock on the vault set
for before 7:30 and 8:00 to open. Os­
walt was dragged into the vault, and
the three men disappeared.
The mailman who entered later was
puzzled at the absence of the manag­
er, heard a moan from the direction
of the vault, «ind when he opened it,
found Oswalt nearly unconscious, un­
able to speak, and hardly able to
stand. The money was all packaged
currency, bills of small denomination.
Oswalt believes them to have been in­
side . but officers held to the theory
that the bank door was left unlocked
and that the men followed him in. be­
cause no door or window had been
forced. State police flies contained
no duplicates of the finger prints. The
revolver holding hand of the active
bandit shook nervously, so possibly
the men were new at the game. Any­
way the money was taken from the
Exchange. And the men seemed to
disappear completely with their an­
cient car.

Having recently purchased this stock of the
Western Michigan District Court at public auc­
tion at a fraction of its original value, we are
immediately placing it on sale for a short time
to give the people of Nashville and vicinity a
chance at a real buy. Any dealer that is inter­
ested, we will be glad to quote him prices that
are far lower than any other source of supply.
No, we are not naming the price, but we are
not refusing any reasonable offer for anything.
Selections of general hardware, kitchen uten­
sils and glassware are still quite large, and our
paint stock is complete except for black and
white. Lots of tools, shovels, hay track, hay
rope, hangers, door locks, padlocks, and near­
ly everything to make a good hardware com­
plete.

Citizens of Tomorrow
It is an obligation of good citizen­

of government to spend this tax

thousands of other citizens, Michi­
gan Bell Telephone Company recog­
nizes its obligation to pay a share in
tbe support of the functions of
The Federal, State and oilier taxes

averaged $7.28 for each telephone in
use. In total this amounts to more
than $3-225,000, of which $2,737,955.25 is in tbe form oi payments to
tbe State of Michigan. It is particu­
larly pleasin'; to us that these State
taxes go into the primary school
fund for the purpose of educating
our citizens of tomorrow.

The primary school fund helps
support the State s elemen­
tary, grammar and high
schools. It erects and main­

tains the buildings, buys supplies,
helps pay the salaries of our 32,000
teachers. Into it go the State taxes
paid by many of the utilities of
Michigan, and of these Michigan
Bell Telephone Company pays the
largest individual tax. From 1921 to
the present year the total taxes paid
by us into the primary school fund
amounted to $32,643,350.99.
Like all other citizens wno have
genuine pride in the progress of
Michigan, we appreciate the value
and profound importance of an ade­
quate school system.
And to the telephone users of our
State it must be great satisfaction
to know that indirectly they make

They were there met by Rev.

The first program was a half-hour

Beatrice M. Cobum, treasurer of
the Barry county Wheat Production
Control association, announces that
she has received wheat checks from'
the Agricultural Adjustment Admin­
istration covering payments due Bar­
ry county farmers on the balance of
their 1934 crop and the first payment
of their 1935 crop. These check* can
be had by calling at County Agricul­
tural Agent Foster's office any time
during office hours.
Eight cents per bushel on the farm
allotment is being paid on the balance
of the 1934 crop. This amounts to
$6,667.89 for the county.
Twenty
cents per bushel is being paid on the
1935 crop, which amounts to $16,673,
making a total of $23,340.89 being
distributed to Barry county farmers
by the County Agricultural Agent's
office at this time.
The 1934 cost of running the county
Control association was one cent per
bushel. This cut the 1933 expenses in
half, which was small in comparison
to some other counties.
Again, County Agent Foster and
officers of the Wheat association are
able to so handle their work to bring
benefit payments to Barry county far­
mers ahead of other counties in the
state. Producers have received not­
ice to come to the County Agent’s'of­

the next fifteen days.

Nashville's water works project, a
pure water supply and three or four
miles of water main extension, seems
nearer realization.
There had to be some changes be­
fore the plans were approved, to in­
crease work and decrease material
cost, and this has been complied with.
A federal grant is expected soon
for this work, with 35 per cent of the
cost to be paid by the village.
A
government man was in Nashville on
Monday.
At a special meeting of the village
council Tuesday night, the well job
was let to Clifford Raymer of Grand
Rapids, a 12-inch well, at $1030.31, the
bid stating that work would start in
from three to six days after the
award was made, which means ap­
parently about the first of next week
There were four bids.

KRAUT MAKING ON;
FIVE VATS ALREADY

Mayor and Mra. Lynn Lorbeck and
Dr. and Mra. E. T. Morris returned
Sunday night from a week's motor
trip to Washington, D. C.» a trip of
nearly 2000 miles, with 150 miles of
mountain driving and sceneery, which
took them from their own state thru
Ohio and Pennsylvania, Into Delaware,
Maryland and Virginia, with beauty
unsurpassed and varied, theirs for the
looking, and for mental pictures in
time to come. Their nights were
spent in the mountains and in the
lowlands.
Leaving here on Sunday morning,
they drove through Adrian to Toledo,
to Akron, and across Pennsylvania to
Philadelphia, to Wilmington and on to
Baltimore and Washington, "Uncle
Sam's home town,” visiting Mt. Ver­
non and Gettysburg, among other
places.
The men took turns in driving the
Morris car, and they had no car trou­
ble, they say, so a good time was
"had by all.”
They copied this inscription on the
Memorial Arch at Valley Forge:
"And here in this place of sacrifice,
in this vale of humiliation, in the Val­
ley of the Shadow of that Deatn out
of which the Life of America arose,
regenerate and free, let us believe in
an abiding faith that to them, Union
seems as dear and Liberty as sweet
and Progress as glorious, as they
were to our Fathers, and are to you
and me. And that the institutions
which have made us happy, preserved
by the virtue of our children, shall
bless the remotest generation of the
time to come.—Henry Armit Brown.”

Governor Frank D. Fitagerald when
he asked for the consolidation of var­
ious departments has been amply de­
monstrated in the savings secured in
one short week in the new depart­
ment of corporations and securities.
Mrs. Alice Alexander, ..the new com­
missioner, was at once able'to take
nine people from the pay rolls because
they duplicated the work being done
by others.
Mrs. Alexander plans to have • the
two branches physically united very
shortly. As soon as this is accom­
plished those who do business with
these divisions will find that a great
deal of the time, labor and expense
which has been necessary in the past
will be abolished. There will no longer
be the constant running from the cap­
ital building to the state office build­
ing which has been necessary hereto­
fore. Nor will the applicant for an
amended charter or for permission to
reorganize his business find that an
arrangement which had been prepared
and approved by one division is en­
tirely unacceptable on another. Thus
both efficiency and economy will be
served by the new arrangement.

this viewpoint and so he is vitally in­
terested in the case which Will be
heard some time in October.

The M. E. A. Fight.
The public is more than usually in­
terested In the affairs of the Michigan
Educational association due to the
fac that this body has bedti credited
by many reporters and others with
having been very active in the socalled school lobby for more money
for education. Just why the educa­
tional people have not tee same right
to lobby for whit-they believe to be
right which la accorded to others
would be hard to explain. However,
the fact that the demands of the
schools have come to represent a
goodly portion of the total of public
costs has brought these charges into
the limelight
The organization is governed by a
representative assembly which is
enqsen by the local members. This
body chooses a president and a board
of directors. The latter chooses the
secretary who is the real executive of­
ficer and who bandies all the affairs
of the body in dealing with the pub­
lic.
E. T. Cameron has held that office
since its organization but lately there
has beep opposition to him due to the
fact that some have felt him to be
"conservative” and these depression
days have made the teachers very un­
easy. He was "ousted" by the last
committee but took the mater into
court on several grounds. The case
has not been decided.
The annual assembly met last week
and promptly elected Supt D. Van­
Buskirk, of Hastings, president He is
supposed to represent the more con­
servative of the groups. So the future
of Cameron would seem very likely to
rest in the hands of his friends.
Next Campaign Interests.
It is very noteworthy that all who
expect or hope to be on the state tic­
ket next year are deeply interested
now in the choice of a leader for the
national ticket in 1936.
Many are expressing a fear that
Hoover may be planning to attempt
a come-back. This is admittedly only
a fear as there has yet been no real
reason to suppose that he had it in
mind. The older leaders are convinc­
ed that it must be a man with the
progressive stamp upon him. Borah
is the type whom they feel would
make a good leader. However, his
age is against him and it is generally
felt that he would be handicapped in
a severe campaign as well as in the
strenuous work which would follow
his possible election.
Of course, Michigan would like to
see Vandenberg the nominee. He is
an orator and would make a fine cam­
paign. Many doubt whether he would
be a logical choice because Michigan
has apparently returned to the Re­
publican fold.
IfIt cannot be Vandenberg there is
a great deal of Knox sentiment in the
state. Col. Knox is a former Mich­
igan man and is well known up and
down the state. He is a progressive
and at the same time he has been a
consistent opponent of the more radi­
cal tendencies of the present' admin­
istration.

Michigan residents ate 1,000,000
less gallons of ice cream this year
than in 1934, according to figures an­
nounced by the bureau of dairying of
the state department of agriculture.
The bureau is inclined to explain the
drop because of a comparatively cool­
er summer, but the popularity of
home made ice cream is believed to be
partially responsible. Production and
consumption of ice cream in Michigan
reached an all-time high in 1934,
when 9,693,567 gallons were produced

Three fihipa under French. captains

guns, under John Paul Jones, sighted
British ships, Serapis and Countess of
Scarborough, with a merchant con­
voy, off Flamborough Head. England.
Jones engage&lt;l the Serapis, a frigate
of 50 guns, and the French ship, Pal­
las, captured the Coutnesa of Scar­
borough after a two hour battle. The
two remaining ships frenered no as­
sistance and the convoy fled. When
the Bonhomme Richard fired the first
broadside, two of her lower deck can­
non exploded, killing the gun crews.
As the men refused to fire any more
ct these guns. Jones was left with on­
ly a small cannon on the upper deck.
The Bonhomme Richard was being
rapidly destroyed, so Jones lashed her
alongside the Serapis and sent the
men from the lower deck into the rig-.
ging to fire muskets down on the
fleck jot the enemy. Soon the Amer­
ican ship was on fire in several places
and leaking badly. One of the gun­
ners cried for quarter and attempted
to haul down the colors. Jones killed
him by throwing a pistol at his head.
Captain Pearson of the Serapis asked
Jones if he surrendered. Jones re­
plied, “I have not yet begnu to fight"
Jones* master-at-arms, seeing the
fires and leaks, thought the ship was
sinking, and so released the prisoners
who he had charge of. As they were
English, they would have turned on
the crew but were told that both
ships were sinking and that they must
man the Bonhomme Richard’s pump
to save their own lives. Meanwhile
Jones men tn the rigging had climbed
over into the masts of the Serapis.
One of them dropped a grenade which
fell down an open hatch of the Ser­
apis and started a serious powder
fire. At this ooint the Alliance, under
the French captain, Landais, entered
the fight by firing broadsides into
both vessels. As Pearson could not
see that the Alliance was damaging
the Bonhomme Richard as much as
his_own ship, he thought that further
fighting was useless and surrendered.
The battle lasted three and a half
hours. On the Tray to France the
Bonhomme Richard sank and Jones
transferred his prisoners and crew to
the Serapis. This is the only incident
in which the victor lost his ship and

Is open this year from May
to November.
More than 6,000,000 people are expected to visit San Diego, Cal„ between
the end of May and the middle of November to see the California Pacific
International Exposition, where they will behold many hundreds of Inter­
esting. educational and scientific exhibits. Among the exhibitors is the
Bell Telephone System, displaying some of the marvels of the trans­
mission of the voice over great distances by wire and radio telephone.

America's 1935 “world’s fair,” the
California Pacific International Ex­
position, opened last May In San
Diego, Cat, and continues well on
into November. Occupying several
hundred acres in Balboa Park, the
exposition overlooks San Diego Har­
bor and is located conveniently to
the center of the city.
Already in the park are many mag­
nificent buildings, some of which
have been acclaimed the finest ex­
amples of Spanish Renaissance
architecture in America. In these
and in nearly 50 others are housed
exhibits from all parts of the world,
telling the story of man’s achieve­
ments.
A Complete “World’s Fair"
To the lover of gardens, the Park
will prove a paradise. Growing things
surround and In some cases almost
blanket the buildings. Climbing the
carved arcades will be seen roses,
jasmine, and clematis. Truly a fiesta
hermosa—a feast of beauty, is this
California Pacific International Ex­
position.
All phases of development are rep­
resented in the Exposition. The ex­
hibits of commerce and industry,
among the most striking in the Ex­
position, show methods as well as
products. Illustrate how things are
done, aa well as what is done. The
tremendous changes which have
come Into industrial life with the
advance of science are not only de­
picted, but dramatized, and are com-

pared by contrast with the past and
what is expected for the future.
In addition to the commercial
industrial exhibits of America, there
are displays from various parts of
the Old World and the New; art and
commodities from Mexico, products
and relics from the colorful Sdhth
America, unusual creations from
Japan, old and new features from
China. The allure of travel and the
pageant of manufacturing progress
are depicted by Australia and New
Zealand. From Fiji and other pic­
turesque isles of the Pacific come
new wonders. The nations of Europe
have banded together to display
their varied achievements in a vast
picture of international progress.
Scientific Marvels Exhibited
Among the many scientific ex­
hibits having both general Interest
and educational value is that of the
Bell Telephone System.
The exhibit centers on the con­
cept of the “telephone voice,” with
three demonstrations. One is an os­
cilloscope permitting a visitor to see
the wave form of his own telephone
voice. Another allows him to hear
over the telephone exactly Low his
voice sounds to others when he la
telephoning them. The third exhibit
is a demonstration of inverted
speech, showing how privacy Is in­
troduced into radio telephone con­
versations and the peculiar and un­
intelligible sounds which represent
a radio telephone message in transit
over the ocean.

PLAN OF EXAMINING SCHOOL
CHILDREN IS CHANGED
Dr. Emory W. ^Morris, director of
the dental educational program for
the W. K. Kellogg Foundation, an­
nounced at a meeting of the EatonBarry county Dental society in Hast­
ings that hereafter school children will
be examined at the various dental offlees and not in the schools. In addi­
tion to the follow-up of former reme­
dial groups, full examination will be
conducted for pupils of the first
grade this year.
The object of the dental education­
al program is to point out to the par­
ents that the earlier the remedial
care of the teeth is given and the
more regular the follow-up and daily
care, the less becomes the cost of an­
nual upkeep, Dr. Morris stated.

A district meeting of the W. C. T.
U. is announced for Thursday. Oct
10. It’s an all day and evening meet­
ing at the Hastings U. B. church, with
lodging and tea served in the conven­
tion church.
For the evening meeting, beginning
at 7 p. m., therj will be an illustrated
lecture on “Health and Alcohol" by
H. P. Buzzell of Battle Creek and an
address by the state president, Mrs.
Dora B. Whitney.
The program will appear in next
week’s issue.
O. W. SLOCUM, IONIA,
CREATES RARE DAHLIA
O. W. Slocum, retired manager of
the Ionia exchange of the Michigan
Bell Telephone Co., started some 25
years ago to grow dahlias because
they interested him, and a few years
later it occurred to him that by cross
breeding in time he could have a pri­
vate collection containing varieties
that no one else had or could pur­
chase except from him. And now his
rare dahlia creation "Son of Satan,’’
a pure incurved cactus of flame color,
won first place at the Cleveland Mid­
West Dahlia show, and is to be placed
on the honor roll for 1935 introduc­
tions. It won first at the Michigan
Dahlia society show at Port Huron,
also winning the American Home
Achievement medal -for the best flow­
er. By request he shipped blooms by
airplane express to the National Dah­
lia show at New York last Thursday
and Friday. He was also selected to
officiate Saturday and Sunday as
judge at the Detroit Dahlia show.
The general public is invited to in­
spect his special flower garden at the
rear of his home, 8 Wagar Place.

Mr. Baker is president of the Naza­
rene Young Peoples' society of the
Kalamazoo Zone, and made the open­
ing prayer.
Rev. and Mrs. Royal are on fur­
lough from China. He was bum in
London, England, and still has a
strong British brogue, and one has to
listen carefully, but his address, from
the topic, “What It Means to Be a
Missionary,” and his text, "I Am a
Debtor," was made very interesting.
Rev. Royal brought with him quite
a good many Chinese curios including
some shoes, hats, a doll, several idols,
chopsticks, also a Chinese Bible, and
he politely invited anyone to come up
and read a chapter after the service.
He also has sn unusual talent for
whistling with his fingers at his lips
in such a way that it sounds like a
bird singing very loud; no one present
had ever heard whistling like it. He
was accompanied at the piano by Mrs.
Venus Pennock.
Rev. Royal, when in China, uses
this whistle to call people together,
much as bells are rung here for calls
to worship. When people are at­
tracted by the whistling, he then
preaches the gospel to them.
Rev.
Royal was to be in the Hastings
church Wednesday evening.

About KVA Plan.
SupL Wallace and President Menno
Wenger of the school board were in
Detroit Monday to attend a PWA
meeting at Dean Cooley's office. Mr.
Cooley is the PWA’s state director.
And these are some of the things
they learned. Plans for PWA pro­
ject set-up were explained. The gov­
ernment wants very close supervision
Inclusive of contracts, advertising and
legal forms which must be okayed by
the Detroit office.
The PWA sets the specifications for
test on sll materials, the wages will
be all set, all types, and approved by
the PWA, all of this to be included in
contract before the bids.
And regarding financing: After the
government has mailed us an offer of
financing, we accept and then they
approve it, and then we have to de­
posit 55 per cent of the project, after
which the government puts in 25 per
cent A® soon as the project is 70
per cent complete,. the government
adds 10 per cent more, and another
10 per cent is paid when the project
■is completed.
Under the PWA contract, the con­
tractor has to report to PWA official
the cost of materials, a complete pay
roll of all employed on the project.
All workmen will be adequately pro­
tected by compulsory compensation
insurance, and the contractor has to
carry public liability and property
damage, at an amount to be fixed by
the government.
AD, projects must be under way by
December 15, or cancelled.
In this skeletonized information,
Sfhich is of interest to us all, we can
take great pride in this last state­
ment given out by Mr. WaHace.
There are 1C2 projects in Michigan,
and Tuesday, the day Mr. WaDace
and Mr. Wenger were in Detroit, five
had completed plans and specifications
—and Nashville was one of the five.
Nashville is ready to “go" when the

quick work.
However, there was damage in

head-long, but turned over, struck
the porch roof, caught the eavestrough, and was caught by a neigh­

To Harry it was one of a series of
unfortunate happenings, coming in
quick succession. First a team ran

Plant Tiny Fish
In Barry Lakes
Thornapple Lake Reeciplent Of Boun­
ty Of Barry County Rod And
Gun Club.

Due to the efforts of the Barry Co.
Rod and Gun club, literacy hundreds
of thousands of fingerling blue gUls
have been planted in Barry county
lakes during the past week. Nearly
every lake in the county has been
supplied. Truck load after truck load
have been taken from the new blue
gill ponds at OrangeviUe, in this first
planting. The fish were in prime con­
dition and nearly all of them will take
care of themselves and make a live of
it In two years they will be of legal
length and ready for the ardent blue
gill fisherman and his frying pan.
Thornapple lake received a liberal
supply Sunday and Monday.
Lake
One, in the village, was also supplied,
together with practically every other
lake in the county. The ponds will
now be cleaned* and made ready for
another supply of spawn next spring.
These Orangeville blue gill ponds,
which are among the finest in the
state, will in a very short time supply
sufficient blue gills to make the fish­
ing better in all Barry county lakes.
This work has been made possible
by the Barry county Rod and Gun
club and the generous support it has
had from its members. The club has
a membership now of about 350. It
should have fully 500 to 1000. Every
man who goes after the luscious blue
giD should be a member of the club
and help with his money and his work
to make greater efforts possible. The
membership costs but a single dollar.
Many of the members have freely
contributed more, in sums ranging
from $5.00 to $25.00, and these con­
tributions have made this season's
supply of fingerlings possible. Natur­
ally these same generous contributions
can not be expected every year, but
if all the fishermen in the county will
join the club and pay in their dollar,
the club will have funds enough to
carry on its fine work, and it will be
but two or three short years until our
lakes will again be well stocked with
this finest of pan fish and we wiD
have the kind of fishing we had be­
fore our lakes became so depleted.

A Creed.
"Let me be a little kinder.
Let me be a little blinder
To the faults of those about me.
Let me praise a little more;
Let me be, when I am weary,
Just a little bit more cheery,
Let me serve a little better,
Those that I am striving for.
Let me be a little braver,
When temptation blds me waver.
Let me strive a little harder
To be all that I .-mould be;
Let me be a little meeker,
With the sister that is weaker,
Let me think more of my neighbor
And a little less of me.
Let me be a little sweeter,
Make my life a bit completer.
By doing what I should do
Every minute of the day;
Let me toil, without complaining,
Not a humble task disdaining.
Let me face the summons calmly
. When death beckons me away.”’

might properly interest or entertain
the public. We have one of that sort
on our desk.
Rockford, Illinois, has a new super­
intendent of schools, one W. W. Ankenbrand, who formerly was at Mans­
field, Ohio. With the school year at
hand in a new field, it seems either
that
Superintendent Ankenbrand
craved publicity or that some reporter
desired he should have some. So he
was introduced to the public with this
kind of drivel.
"Every pupil is entitled to a pretty
teacher" is the statement attributed
to this self-appointed spokesman of
modern education. "The day of the
battle axe in education is definitely
past” According to the reporter he
closed with a statement that he would
hire only pretty teachers. None else
need apply. The drivel doubtless
made its way onto the press wires for
the very reason that it was so patent­
ly insipid and asinine — because it
would cause many people to bite their
nails just as we have . We hope the
superintendent enjoys his publicity.
He’s welcome to it
What with competition emong a
large class of modern educational the­
orists for giving birth ostentatiously
to new fangled ideas, the system has
bred plenty of freaks.
In some
schools today it is the idea to find out
what the child wants to do and then
let him do it in his own way. Mr. An­
kenbrand goes one better. He would
provide a pretty woman for the child
to look at while he is doing it
This apostle of higher learning
doesn’t define what a "battle axe" is
among teachers. We assume inevit­
ably any teacher that hasn't a pret­
ty face. The standard would seem to
preclude interest in what’s under the
teacher's hair. It’s how she does her
hair. No notice as to how wide the
brows, but rather how well they're
plucked.

Such points seem in­
deed old fashioned.

Asking The Grand Rapids clergyCSergywen. men. ta common with
many thousand more
throughout the nation, have received
tetters from the President of the Unit­

ed States asking their advice with
reference to the Work Relief Program
and Social Security. The letter is
splendidly couched, just the right lan­
guage to make one think the Presi­
dent is asking each recipient of the
letter for his personal advice in hand­
ling the affairs of the nation.
But the thing which is somewhat
confusing is that when the President
demanded that Congress give him
four billion of dollars for Work Relief
and when he demanded the passage of
the Social Security bill, he told the
world that the whole program was all
set. When the Congress talked of
demanding an itemized statement of
what he proposed to do with all the
money, the President let is be known
that he had his plans all made. In­
deed, if we are to believe the reports
from Hyde Park and Washington in
the last few days, all the money for
Work Relief has not been allotted and
some 33,000 projects are already un­
der way. How will the "advice" of
the clergymen affect the expenditure
of this vast sum of money?
Again,
only a day or so ago Relief Adminis­
trator Hopkins announced that every­
thing was "all set” on Work Relief.
Surely, he will not change the situa­
tion if All the clergymen in the na­
tion should tell the President he is all
wrong.
What about the advice with refer­
ence to Social Security? That was
something else that was all carefully
planned, according to the representa­
tions made to the Congress when the
bill was before it. Indeed, the bill it­
self tells how the money shall be rais­
ed and for what it is to be expended.
Will the Congress be asked to change
the law if the clergymen should hap­
pen to give "advice’’ contrary to pres­
ent plans?
Fact of the matter is, of course,
that this is another plea for votes in
the forthcoming presidential election.
Many a man is flattered by receiving
a letter from a high public official and
driven all but daft with even a form
letter from the White House. In this
instance, the President is taking right
to his bosom the clergy of the nation,
asking them to help him run the coun­
try, making them a part of his "Brain
Trust." Some will verily believe this
to be the case.
Some will boast to
their friends in years to come that the
"President asked me to advise him,”
“I was one of the President's advis­
ors," and, as time goes on, we shall
find those who, in retrospect, will say.
"President Roosevelt leaned heavily!
on me for advice."
Fact is, of course, the President
never will see any of the letters which
the clergymen will write to him. Each
will probably get a nice letter dicta­
ted by some ninth assistant secre­
tary. thanking him for his sound ad­
vice and Interest and all that sort of
thing, but the President himself never
will see the letters w'hich will be writ­
ten to him nor the replies that will be
sent back.
Perhaps, though, this letter-writ­
ing business will garner a few votes,
some kind remarks from the pulpits
and certainly will help Postmaster
General Farley again to show a” sur­
plus" in the operation of the Postof­
fice department—Grand Rapids Her­

Who Gets The When the house Is c.T!
Easy Chair?
fire
there is not
much sense in engag­
ing all present in a wrangle over who
shall occupy the easy chair in the sit­
ting room.
If sense prevails, there will be a
merger of energies to the job of put­
ting out the fire.
And then the privileges of residence
within the saved structure can be dis­
cussed and disposed of.
Mark Sullivan, in his Washington
comment in this newspaper on Sun­
day, pointed out the folly of wrangles
at this time over privileges and bene­
fits to be promised ttf economic and
geographical groups in the making of
campaign promises for the near fu­
ture.
Specifically, Mr. Sullivan told how
one of the supposed presidential pros­
pects within the Republican party had
been sharply challenged by a political
leader from Kansas to know what he
proposed to promise ths farmer. The
inference was plainly drawn that if
the promises were generous enough

erwise not.
It is, as Mr. Sullivan says in reply,
a poor year for bargaining.
If the situation presents nothing
more serious than the need for dis­
tributing favors among the askers,
and thus making glad the industrial
region or the farm region, or the town
dwellers or the country dwellers the
bonus seekers or the old age pension
seekers, and so on—if these are the
major questions before the country,
then the Republican party might as
well save the energy that will go into
making a nomination and running a
campaign—because, in 'that event,
Roosevelt will be triumphantly elected
and will deserve to be.
And if there is something bigger
than these "dickering” questions at
stake if there is the question of whe­
ther constituional government is to
last; if there is the question of when,
where and how the government is go­
ing to quit plunging into debt, and
when and how it is going to begin
balancing its budget and saving its
credit and its currency; if there is the
question of when and how Congress is
to return to its constitutional func­
tions as a coordinate branch of the
government and take the lawmaking
power away from boards, commis­
sions and agents in the field—if these
questions exist, then the dickering for
promises for favors and subsidies to
the factory or the form, or this class
of society or that, is about as perti­
nent as a hand-waving argument in
the front yard over the rights to ait

“To Them That Among the many
Love God."
comforting prom­
ises of Scripture
there is probably none that has
brought more peace and conx-&gt;auon
to suffering humanity than that in­
spired declaration of St Paul (Rom.
8:28), "We know that all things work
together for good to them that h»ve
God.” It will be noticed that there La
no punctuation in the foregoing sen­
tence, yet it is frequently quoted as if
there were a period after the word
“good.” Taking the sentence as a
whole, it is apparent that the promise
is specifically made “to them that
love God.” The American Standard
Version of the Bible transposes the
text in the following order: "We know
that to them that love God all things
work together for good.” The ex­
planatory clause which follows, "to
them who are called according to his
purpose,’ does not, of course, mean
that God calls some and not others,
for we are expressly told by the Apos­
tle Peter that “God is no respecter of
persons (Act 10:34). Those who are
"he called’’ must therefore be those
who are sufficiently wide awake to
respond to God’s call—those who love
good sufficiently to obey the call and
so fulfill toe divine purpose.
The First Commandment of the
Hebrew Decalogue forbade the wor­
ship of more than one God.
In his
parting address to the children of Is­
rael, Moses said (Deut 6:4-6), “Hear
O Israel: The Lord our God is one
Lord: and thou shalt love the Lord
thy God with all thine heart, and
with all thy soul, and with all thy
might’’ But the prevailing belief of
that time made God a mighty poten­
tate and warrior, to whom fear was
due rather than love. When Christ
Jesus cited Moses* words, as above
quoted, he coupled with them God’s
command (Mark 12:331), "Thou shall
love thy neighbour as thyself," and
added, “There is none other com­
mandment greater than these."
According to Christian Science the
love of God Includes not only the re­
cognition of the divine likeness in
man, but also the love of everything
noble, uplifting, pure, and good, wher­
ever it may be expressed. Christian
Science destroys fear by showing that
there is nothing in reality to fear. It
shows that the tribulations of human
experience are not to be feared, but
to be used as opportunities to prove
that "perfect love caste to out fear"
(I John 4:18). Even the loss of those
things that seem nearest and dearest
on earth is not to be feared; for
when it is understood that “Love nev­
er faileth," one does not accept the
belief of loss but rather looks with ex­
pectation to the fulfillment of the
promise, “All things work together
for good to them that love God.”
Because Mary' Baker Eddy caught
the true import of the life and teach­
ings of Christ Jesus she was able to
interpret the divine Principle by
which he performed his healing works.
She saw that earth’s sorrows and suf­
ferings could be used as so many oc­
casions for demonstrating the power
of God by overcoming them. In her
Message to The Mother Church for
1900 (p. 11) she has said. "Thus it is
with whatever turns mortals away
from earth to heaven; we have the
promise that ’all things work together
for good to them that love God.’—
love good.” Not understanding the
uses of adversity, human beings are
inclined to rebel against their lot
rather than to make spiritual capital
out of their experience*. Christ Jes­
us set the perfect example by making

destroyed except in mere minor mat­
ters of legislation. We are safe from
the dangers of any such departure
from the principles on which this
country is founded just so long as the
individual home rule of the states is
scrupulously preserved and fought for
whenever they se-m in danger.
Let us remember that, from the
very beginning, differences in climate,
soil conditions, habits and mode of
living in states separated by thous­
ands of miles, rendered it necessary to
give the fullest individual latitude to
the Individual states.
Remembering
that the mining
states of the Rockies, the fertile sa­
vannahs of the South, the prairies of
the West and the rocky soil of the
New England states created many
problems, introduced many factors in
each locality which have no existence
in others, it is obvious that almost
every new or old problem of govern­
ment must be solved, if it is to be
solved to the satisfaction of the peo­
ple of the whole country, by each
state in its own way.”
“There Is No Master Mind.”
Let me quote again from Franklin
D. Roosevelt, on March 2, 1930:
“The doctrine of regulation and
legislation by ‘master minds,’ in
whose judgment and will all the peo­
ple may gladly and quietly acquiesce,
has been too glaringly apparent at

California Envies

Tourist Information Lodge* Afford
Places Of Rest, And Offer Many
Other Conveniences.

Michigan at last has one type of
tourist promotion service that has
made California envious.
The Los Angeles Times in a recent
editorial lauded the new tourist lodge
and information station operated by
I the state highway department on
US-12 near New Buffalo. The same
edtiorial chided California on its
treatment of visitors upon reaching
the borders of that state.
"The (Michigan) service must fur­
nish a considerable contrast to the
sort of reception visitors get at the
California border, where cars are in­
spected—and their occupants put to
inquisition—to see that neither boll
weevils nor Chinamen are being
smuggled in,” he editorial read.
"Something to^nake desirable tour­
ists feel welcome would at least be an
offset to the pest-seekers and neu­
tralize the bad Impression they
create.”
The New Buffalo tourist lodge was
opened this year as an experiment and
may be extended to other Michigan
gateways if the experiment lives up to
expectations. It not only affords the
tourist a place to rest but provides a
clearing-house for every conceivable

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT ASKS ,
CLERGYMEN FOR ADVICE
President Roosevelt has asked cler­
gymen for "counsel and advice” on
how the government "can better serve
our people.”
"Because of the grave responsibili­
ties of my office, I am turning to rep­
resentative clergymen for counsel and
advice, feeling confident that no group
can give more accurate or unbiased
views,” the letter said.
Expressing particular hope that the
new social security law and the works
program shall be carried out effec­
tively, the letter adds that the Presi­
dent will “deem it a favor if you will
write me about conditions in your
community.”
“Tell me where you feel our gov­
ernment can better serve our peo­
ple,” the letter asked.
The President also wrote:
“I am particularly anxious that the
new social security legislation shall
be carried out in keeping with the
high purposes with which this law
was enacted. —
- •1m—
It -la also
vitally
portant that the Works Progress Ad­
ministration be administered to pro­
vide employment at useful work, and
that our unemployed as well as the
nation as a whole may derive the
greatest possible benefits.
"We can solve our many problems,
but no one man or single group can
do it
We shall have to work to­
gether for the common end of better
spiritual and material conditions for
the American people.”

Junior-Senior Hunt.
High school seniors found a very
desirable “hideaway” in the basement
of the former Pultz hospital for the
annual Junior-Senior Hunt, which
was an event of Wednesday evening
of last week, but their dreams of a
chicken dinner, served of course by
the unlucky juniors, were rudely in­
terrupted by the juniors, who seem­
ed to have some "G-Men" in their
organization; anyway the “sleuths”
located them, and in consequence for
the first time in several years, the
seniors will be serving the juniors,
the date Friday evening, Nov. 8. Sen­
ior chaperones for the Hunt were

Supt. and Mrs. Wallace, Mr. and Mrs.

village ten miles north of Nashville,
he was approached in the spring of
1875 by a friend of his parents, who
inquired if Henry would like a job in
a hardware and implement store at
Nashville. The friend said that C. C.
Wolcott, at that time owner of the
business, would, he thought, like to
employ a German boy from Wood­
land to work in his store, as that
would give him a better chance to get
acquainted with the people of the

Our Thinking.
Life is largely what we make it
By the kind of thoughts we hold;
Wc may know what lies before us
From our present ‘thinking mold."
We should never be too fretful
When things turn out as they do,
For these products Of our thinking
Largely to that "Form" are true.
May we ever, then, be mindful.
As our thoughts take form “in kind,"
Of the kind of thoughts we harbor
By the habits of our mind.
For when we, by faith and practice,
Live in thought what wc would see.
God may force a plan of action
Leading to reality.
Let us, then, stop chasing shadows,
Losing hope from day to day,
And, by looking for the sunshine,
Work the law the other way!
—Charles J. Starburg.

used to hear a great deal
about Lewis A. Douglas.
But that was before Mr. Douglas took
his hat and went up to Hyde Park to
offer Mr. Roosevelt his resignation as
director of the budget
Since that
time the President has shown a vast
disinterest in balancing the national
account, to which he was committed
by his campaign.
Meanwhile Lewis W. Douglas has
been writing a book. The first of it
is beginning to appear in the Atlantic
Monthly. If only to sfee how far
apart he and Franklin D. Roosevelt
have finally emerged, it Is interesting
reading.
He attacks the "Spend-Your-WayOut" policy. "Its fallacy lies in its
failures to recognize two important
facts. The first of these is that the
great bulk of existing unemployment
is in industries which make things
which the average individual consum­
er does not buy. The second is that
savings do not represent sterile locked-up funds, but funds which go into
Immediate circulation throug*'. some
form of investment."
Mr. Douglas quotes the studies of
the Harvard School of Business to
show that the industries making
goods for the consumption of individ­
uals have declined but 16 per cent
Then he show? that employment in
the capital goods industries has gone
off over 50 per cent Statistics show
that the effect of the government pay­
ing a billion dollars to veterans in
cash bonuses did not help the plight
of the capital goods industries.
No
more does the dole.
Capital goods are what industry
and business buy — machinery and
building for expansion or replace­
ment. They are bought with money
which is not charged to expense, but
to capital account.
Mr. Douglas is at pains to adduce
figures to show that buying more
machinery and mechanizing industry
not only does not throw men out of
employment, but actually decreases
unemployment It makes more jobs.
Even Mr. Moley and others connected
with the New Deal admit there is
need for replacement to the amount
of at least $19,000,000,000 since 193L
There is no other way out, says Mr.
Douglas.
Here Is a prophet still sticking to
the belief that the solution of the de­
pression is to end unemployment His
way is to encourage private invest­
ment. Saving—not spending — will
bring re-employment"
It may be otherwise with Mr.
Roosevelt and the New Dealers, but

in the Douglas view, "Thrxift is still
a virtue."—Albion Recorder.

After
What would happen In
Dictators. Italy, Germany or Russia
ah mi Id an assassin’s bul­
let fell Mussolini, Hitler or Stalin?
This question has often been asked,
and a partial answer showing what
happens when a dictator of lesser
scope is removed suddenly from the
scene may be found now by studying
the situation in Louisiana.
The late Huey Long cannot, of
course, be compared to European dic­
tators. The latter rose to power thru
military process, either by fighting or
by having control of sufficient troops
to make fighting unnecessary. Long
rose to power by building up a politi­
cal machine that was, for his purpose
in Louisiana, just as powerful and ef­
fective as an army.
The bullet that terminated Senator
Long’s life also severed the jugular
vein of his political organization. As
in all machines ruled by one man no
lieutenant had been allowed to attain
a favored position or an undue share
of controL No one man shared the
full confidence of Huey Long regard­
ing all of his plans. No one knew all
the details of his future policies. To
.some had been entrusted partial in­
formation, but not even by piecing all
this together could the entire picture
be formed.
It was necessary, of course, for
Long to do this to keep his motley
organization intact. By keeping his
followers guessing, by not letting any
individual know how much power or
information had been vouchsafed to
another, be assured himself of their
loyalty, made sure of their continued
sense of dependence and utilized in­
ter-organization jealousy to spur his
henchmen to greater efforts in his
own behalf.
While Huey lived, it was an ideal
arrangement, the product of one of
thd shrewdest political minds in the
business. When Huey died, however,
the whole thing fell of its own weight,
for he left no successor, only a lead­
erless organization, none of whose of­
ficers held the combination to the
safe.
Thus since the death of Long his
state organization has split a half
dozen ways and his national organi­
zation has broken off relations with
most of the state factions.
Rival
candidates from within the Long
ranks are seeking state and Congres­
sional office. When election comes
under such a distribution of loyalty
there can be but one result—the anti­
Long forces will be in a position to
elect as many candidates as they can
unite on, for the pro-Long vote will
be split hopelessly.
This political disintegration is in­
evitable when political dictators die.
When dictators who rule by the
might of military strength die, the
effects are complicated by the scram­
ble for control of that military pow­
er, and before that scramble is over
bloodshed is almost inescapable.—
Adrian Daily Telegram.
Here is what C. L. Bar­
do, president of the Na­
tional Association of Manufacturers,
found as he took inventory of the old
U. S. A. and its 120 million people:
That with 7 per cent of the world’s
population, this country has 32 per
cent of the railroad, 58 per cent of
the telephones and telegraph focilb
ties, 36 per cent of its developed wat­
er power, 76 per cent of the automotiles, 33 per cent of the radio broad­
casting stations, and 44 per cent of
the radio receiving sets.
In the United States are produced
60 per cent of the world’s oil; 48 per
cent of the copper; 48 per cent of the
pig iron; 47 per cent of the steel; 58
per cent of the corn; and prior to the
coming of the AAA, 56 per cent of
the cotton.
Our standard of living is so much
higher than in foreign countries that
we consume 1-2 of the world’s coffee,
1-2 of its rubber, 1-2 of its sugar, 3-4
of its silk; 1-3 of its coal and 2-3 of
its petroleum.
In 1933, a depression year, there
was spent in the United States more
than three billion dollars for educa­
tion, and that was more than the
amount expended for education by all
of the other countries in the world.

COUNTRY.

mashvblu; mews.

The United States is the only country
in the world to put one out of every
five children through high school, and
one out of every 116 through college.
This country has more than seven
billion dollars Invested in public and
private schools and nearly four bil­
lion dollars in colleges and universi­
ties. It'Has nearly four billion dol­
lars invested in churches.
Most workers in America aroscapi­
talists already.- In 1930, 14 mhiion
families owned their own homes.
More than half of all the farmers
owned their own farms. In 1934, in­
cluding postal savings, there were
more than 38 million savings ac­
counts in banks throughout the coun­
try with aggregate deposits exceedi Ing two billion dollars. In the year
1933 there were more than nine mil­
lion members of building and loan as­
sociations, with assets approaching
seven billion dollars.
At the beginning of 1934 there were
over thirty-one and one-half million
ordinary life insurance policies in
force for a face value of over seventy
billion dollars, and there were in addi­
tion over eighty-eight and one-quar­
ter million industrial policies calling
for payment of almost eighteen and
one-half billion dollars.
Such is the picture of our social or­
der. Such is the triumph of Amer­
ica's philosophy of government—a
government of the people, by the peo­
ple and for the people.
This new
principle in public affairs provided an
incentive for American enterprise and
initiative, released forces unknown in
human history and provided a stan­
dard of living which the rest of the
world in its wildest dreams had never
even pictures. That standard of liv­
ing is a fact. Although it’s a mira­
cle, it certainly isn’t a myth.

Increased strength in the structure
of building and loan associations of
Michigan is shown in the annual re­
port of the building and loan division
of the Department of State, for the
fiscal year ending June 30, last. The
report has not been published yet in
printed form; highlights in it have
been released by Coleman C. Vaughn,
chief of the division.
Significant are the facts that re­
ceipts of the association increased ap­
proximately $4,500,000 during the last
fiscal year as compared with the
previous one.
While three associa­
tions went into voluntary liquidation,
under provisions of the building and
loan law*, there were no receiverships.
In fact there have been no receiver­
ships in the last four fiscal years, ac­
cording to Vaughn.
The favorable cash and securities
position of the associations is shown
on the consolidated balance sheet,
which lists total assets at $6,434,­
827.29, and current liabilities totaling
$1,610,777.65. The assets are com­
posed of: cash on hand and in banks,
$1,541,885.11; current securities, $4,­
885,290.71; notes receivable, $7,651,­
47. Liabilities are listed as compos­
ed of accounts payable, notes payable,
and accrued interest payable,
Michigan building and loan associa­
tions paid out more than $1,400,000
on applications of shareholders for
withdrawals and to relieve necessi­
ties, in the fiscal year covered by the
report. This fact partially accounts
for the material shrinkage in the
factors being the adoption of the re­
footings of the associations, other
duction plan and some losses incurred
on conversion of mortgages to Home
Owners Lokn Corporation bonds, to­
gether with losses incurred on some
direct sales of property acquired.
Sales of property on-land contracts
exceeded $1,000,000, indicating an in­
crease in the demand for homes. In­
crease in rentals and a note of in­
creasing optimism finds expression in
the report. Now money is being offerred to the associations, the depart­
ment finds.
The Works Progress administration
said Oct 8 its project quotas had been
fixed at $1,140,000,000, of which Pres­
ident Roosevelt has allotted $909,077,­
211 and Comptroller General J. R.
McCarl has approved $56,889,956.
"Any apparent lag in the coniptroller general’s approvals is to be attri­
buted to the heavy volume of work
devolving upon his office,” the WPA
statement added. It listed for the
first time a complete distribuion of
WPA state quotas.
Many showed
sharp slashes. Of the $1,140,000,000
total, $68,620,000 was set aside for
nation-wide projects, including $27,­
315,065 for white collar projects.
Michigan's state quote is $41,260,000,
the presidential allotment is $30,­
703,065. The amount cleared by Mc­
Carl is $17,417,454 and the number of
WPA jobs last week reported created
in Michigan is 11,896.

Three Generations of Chinese Have
Served Coast’s Unique Switchboard

This group of photographs Is remarkable for two reasons: they were taken not In China but In San Francisco,
Cal.; and the upper left photograph, taken In 1901, shows three Chinese men telephone operators wearing queues,
or pigtails, which became outmoded with the fall of the Manchu dynasty In China. The old switchboard, with
Its characteristic dragon decoration, was destroyed In the fire of 1906, and was replaced by a modern switchboard
housed In the new Chinatown central office building of the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company which Is
shown at the lower left.

■Thirty-four years ago, in the days
of the Manchus, Chan Yung Lai
was one of the flrat men operators
of the old Chinatown telephone ex­
change in San Francisco. Today, his
granddaughter, Elizabeth Lee, sits
at the modern Chinatown switch­
board in the same city and wears
the bobbed hair of the modem Chi­
nese girl.
Chan's daughter. Ho Lee, mother
of Elizabeth, recently retired after
twenty-five years of service at the
switchboard, the longest record
among the Chinese women opera­
tors, who replaced the men in 1907.
Grandfather Chan had the rare dis­
tinction of being one of the few men
telephone operators In the world
ever to wear a queue.
In the great San Francisco fire
of 1906, the Chinatown switchboard
was destroyed. It was replaced by
the present one of Oriental atmos­
phere and color, housed by the
Pacific Telephone and Telegraph
Company in a pagoda-type building
of traditional Chinese architecture,
with three roofs one above the other,
designed to harmonize With sur­
rounding Chinatown structures.
The Chinatown exchange in San

Francisco Is one of the spots which
most tourists visit. There are hun­
dreds of visitors each month. The ex­
terior of the building is painted in
green, red and black, and the in­
terior in black, Chinese red and gilt
Situated in the heart of the Chinese
quarter, its gaily-decorated pagoda
roof and balconies afford a specimen
of Chinese architecture seldom seen
outside of the Celestial empire. The
concrete foundation of the walls of
the building corresponds to the stone
platforms upon which the Chinese
place their buildings to protect them
from dampness. Supporting the first
pagoda are columns consisting of
circular posts without capitals and
moulded bases. The pagodas or
towers are receding stories and their
shape is supposed to shelter the
building from the direct rays of the
sun.
When the "China” central office
was first opened, there were 100 sub­
scribers and three operators. Now
there are over 2,500 subscribers and
19 operators, all of whom must know
the name of every subscriber. For
the Chinese insist on calling by
name instead of by number. Conse­
quently, the Chinese operators n. ist

know who everyone Is In Chinatown.
And they do.
The Chinese telephone directory
published in San Francisco is the
only such directory in the United
States. While it is used throughout
San Francisco's Chinatown, it is also
distributed outside of San Francisco
in some of the larger cities in the
state, as the Chinese make ferquent
use of long distance telephone serv­
ice.
This special Chinese telephone di­
rectory is arranged differently from
the ordinary directory. The listings
afe placed alphabetically under the
names of streets, the street having
the largest number of telephone sub­
scribers being listed first. No at*
'tempt is made at an alphabetical
arrangement of street names. Chi­
nese characters are usually read
up and down the columns, but in
the telephone directory listings are
arranged in columns as follows:
first, telephone number; second,
subscriber’s name; third, classifi­
cation of business; and fourth,
street number. As the street name
appears at the top of the list, only

Parole System A Problem.
In recent years the parole system
has been the subject of a great deal
of criticism chiefly, probably, because
of its abuse. There has been a general
feeling that too many people were
made its beneficiaries. In 1932 our
prison population reached a maxi­
mum of 8,789 while in 1935 it was
7,552. In the former year there were
3,328 paroled as against 1,121 in the
six month period ending June 30,
1935. During the same time there
were 68 sentences reduced as opposed
to 168 in the first six months of 1934.
During the last six months there
were but 27 returned to prison as
parole violators, which number in­
cludes five who were sentenced for
other prison offenses. Despite this
showing, Commissioner Joseph EL
Armstrong emphisisea the fact that
the object of the present regime is
not to secure a record as to the small
number parolee or pardoned, but rath­
er to serve first the public and sec­
ond the inmates.
In the ordinary course of circum­
stances, every prison inmate will re­
turn to society except, of course, the
lifers. Thus, the question becomes
"When shall the inmate be paroled?”
not "What inmate shall be paroled?"
It stands to reason that those who
are ready for a parole should be re­
leased. The socially maladjusted must
remain in prison. This means that
the unfit must be segregated. This is
now being done largely on the recom­
mendation cf trained psychiatrists. In
other words, prisoners can not be
"mass treated." Each must be con­
sidered on his own merits.
There are a number of perverted
types which must always be institu­
tionalized. Here again the trained
psychiatrist is called into service.
The commissioner expresses him­
self as being hopeful that there will
be in the near future a much closer
relationship between his office and
the judiciary as well as with the pro­
secuting officials of the state. This
will, in his opinion, solve most of the
present problems arising from the
parole system in use in Michigan.
Prisoners To Pay Board.
Something rather new in the his­
tory of Michigan prisons is the fact
that, hereafter, because of legislative
action, the prisoners who can do so
will be charged for their maintenance.
This plan has been true for many
years in all hospital cases but this
is the first time it has been applied
to people who are serving prison
terms.
A good many of those in the var­
ious penal institutions of Michigan
are said to be able, or have families
who are in a position, to pay to the
state the actual cost of their living.
This is figured on the basis of the
cost per inmate in the particular pris­
on in which the inmate is being con­
fined. It is estimated that the re­
ceipts will be a tidy sum.

Lord was elected and went into court
to secure the office.
The supreme
court seated him.
It will be seen
that there are fundamental differenc­
es because there is no provision for a
special election of any state officer,
except, of course, judges of court of
record.
The constitution is ambiguous and
it is not clear what was intended in
a case like this.
Had the vacancy
occurred after the man elected had
been seated, then there could have
been no doubt as to the right of the
governor to appoint.
As this is written it seems likely
that the court will hand down a deci­
sion about the 14th as a conference is
to be held on that date.
Adjourned To October 22.
The gas hearing before the utilities
commission on Wednesday of last
week was adjourned until October 22,
at which time all interested parties
were ordered to be present for a con­
tinuation of proofs in their request
for the right to construct lines for the
transportation of natural gas to
Lansing and many other points. The
Consumers Power Co. is the principal
applicant for the privilege of trans­
porting Michigan gas to Michigan
consumers. Alfred Doughty, former
mayor of Lansing, was also a peti­
tioner in the name of the Central
Michigan Natural Gas Co. A. Thom­
as Sarklsson also had a petition be­
fore the commission asking the right
to construct a line to Detroit

However, the last legislature amend­
ed that act by providing that the
governing body of any municipality
might vote to exempt such property.
In this case the city commission of
Grand Rapids has never so voted.
The attorney general ruled that the
amendment was excess verbiage in­

Elliott Vs. Voelker.
This case of Elliott vs. Voelker
was reargued before the supreme
court last week. The justices asked
many questions and seemed very
anxious to secure all the light possi­
ble upon this rather vexatious prob­
lem. The only precedent case is one
from Oakland county, known as An­
drews vs. Lord, and is recorded in
9th Michigan Reports. This case in­
volved the appointment of a succes­
sor to a judge of probate who had
died in office. He had been re-elected
but had not finished out his old term.
The governor first appointed Andrews
for the balance of the old term and
t&gt; en reappointed him for the new.
There was, however, a statute calling
for the election of a judge of probate
in the event of a vacancy and so the
board of supervisors called such an
election at the regular April election.

An item in the same issue advised
of a wrestling match for the after­
noon of the Fourth between C. G.

A still later item told of the five
scenes for the Opera House, land­
scape, street, woods, parlor and kit­
chen, painted by John M. Roe and
Frank Timmerman, as showing good
artistic taste.
"The Persecuted Dutchman" was
the first amateur show to be mention­
ed in The News. It was sponsored by
the N. C. B.. which we believe was
“short" for Nashville Comet Band,
and was given July 14 th with Frank
Timmerman, D. M. Purchis, R. W.
Huntington, John R. Crites, H. A.
Brooks, Dell Squlera, Phena Staley,
Helen Allen and Annie Layton as the
performers. .
A Harvest dance with an 8-piece
orchestra was an event of August 3,
and then on August 24 there was a
club dance with music by the Nash­
ville String Band. An oyster supper
for the benefit of the Baptist society,
with an accompanying sale of young
. ladies — with identity hidden — was
held Oct. 16 and a Temperance social
was mentioned for Oct. 28.
“Uncle Tom’s Cabin" was given
Nov. 23 by home talent under the
auspices of the ladles' Christian so­
ciety assisted by the Nashville or­
chestra, with M. B. Brooks , as Uncle
Tom. Other players were A. M.

Then the orchestra had a Thanksgiv­
ing party, and publicity ended there
for 1877.
But in the succeeding years as in
this firsUyear all special events call­
ing for a large attendance were held
at the Opera House, public and pri­
vate parties, entertainments of var­
ious kinds, amateur and professional,
some of the stock companies in ear­
lier days playing a week's engage­
ment here and returning from year to
year, political meetings, large dinners
or banquets. Memorial and Com­
mencement exercises, even the funral of Senator Lewis Durkee, attend­
ed by so many members of the state
legislature, was held in the Opera
House.
Small entertainments were held in
the lodge rooms. In the pastorate of
Rev. McCombe of the Methodist
church, financing of the present
Communitly House was accomplished
and still later came the present Ma­
sonic Temple, with facilities for
handling banquets and other things.
There were several years in the
early eighties when the Opera House
functiond as a roller skating rink.
When this craze swept the country,
Mr. Chipman, sensing the amusement
need of that day. opened the Opera
House to the public for roller skating
but for succesful achievement of this
purpose a second floor of matched
timber and not laid just lengthwise
of the room as the first rough floor,
was laid over the first floor, and the
men doing this work were Charles
Raymond, Henry Wolcott and Phineas Frace. The craze, and It was a
real one here, with young and old and
the betweens participating, developed
real talent as well as enjoyment

In more recent years the school
board rented the Opera House for
basketball practise, having no school
gym, and many hardly contested
games were fought there. Our earli­
est Ag-He Fairs were held there too.
But with condemning the building
passed into disuse until now, nearly
39 years from the time work was
started on it, the building is being
dismantled.
Facing one from the street, as the
side sections of the building were be­
ing lowered piecemeal, was a stage
curtain which represented a later era
in the history of the Opera House, a
day when Rothaar &amp;. Son were selling
dry goods, groceries, notions and car­
pets; when Barker was the baker and
operated a restaurant; when Claude
W. Smith &amp;. Co. bad a men's outfit­
ting store; Purchir Bros. were in bus­
iness; Herman Maurer operated a
general department store selling dry
goods and groceries; S. A. Gott sold
hardware and other things; O. G.

business; there was a Real Estate
Exchange operated by L. W. Feigh­
ner, Ward Quick and Walter Burd;
Mra, R. J. Giddings was the only wo­
man advertiser; and The News also
had a space.
There have been few changes in
ownership. Still the property of Mr.
Chipman when he died, it was sold to
John Fumiss when his estate was
settled up, and when Mr. Fumiss died
the building passed to his son, J. C.
Fumiss. who in turn some years later
sold it. to John Wellman, and now the
building sold to Frank Kellogg is fast
dissolving into so many feet of this
and that, of used material.
And the curtain comes down on the
last act at the Opera House in Nash­
ville.

Miss Grohe, who has been so gener­
ous and successful with her talent in
making flowers. Our president urged
all who could to renew their subscrip­
tion to our foreign magazine, "The
Friend." She concluded her remarks

James Whitcomb Riley's “The Gob­
lins WiU Get You if You Don't Watch
Out," in which we were warned we
had better take "The Friend."
Announcement was made of a

the more undesirable *type. Mra.
Paiks read a very interesting letter
from Miss Edith Parks, who is now
teaching near Erie, Mich. She writes
she is very happily situated and is en­
joying her new work very much.
We were told that if each member
in every auxiliary would give just
five cents, Lt would be sufficient to
place twelve new missionaries on the
foreign field and would keep them
there one year. A collection for this
purpose was taken. We were dis­
missed with prayer by Mrs. Hoyt.

Harold J. Foster,

ricultural Adjustment Administra­
tion will hold a referendum on the
Com Hog program during the week
of October 20th. Ballots with the
question. "Do you favor a Corn-Hog
adjustment program to follow the
1^35 program, which expires Novem­
ber 30. 1935?" will be in Barry coun­
ty com and hog producers hand?, dur­
ing that week. Producers will vote
"Yes" or "No” on this question and
send their secret ballot to Mr. Fos­
ter's office before Saturday. Oct. 26.
The AAA declares that the future of
the Com-Hog contract rests with this
vote. If a majority of com-hog pro­
ducers over the United States regis­
ter a negative vote, contracts for
1936 will not be offered producers.
In the past, Mr. Foster has always
preceded such referendum with meet­
ings oyer the county at which the
new contract to be offered was ex­
plained.
Because of the short time
between the announcement of a refer­
endum and the referendum itself, Mr
Foster finds this procedure impossi­
ble. The economic background, the
present situation and the new 1936
contract, if one is offered, will be ex­
plained at one central meeting in
Barry county to be held at the court
house on Thursday evening, Oct. 17,
at 8:00 p. m. This meeting will place
a producer in much better jshape to
vote intelligently on the question at
hand. The meeting is open to all
com-hog producers in Barry county,
whether they signed last year’s con­
tract or not Voting on the question
is open to both contract signers and
non-contract signers. Producers who
are undecided as to their opinion on
the merits of a 1936 program, should
try and attend this central meeting.
Prof. E. V. Gunn of the Michigan
State college Economics Department
is expected to be present to discuss
the economic background. Louis Hall
of the state Com-Hog Board of Re­
view will discuss the new 1936 con­
tract If one is offered, and County
Agent Foster will assist in interpret­
ing these national programs to Barry
county farmers. All three speakers
will present the situation and the
contract as fairly as possible as they
always have in the past. This is an
educational meeting.

Debating.
Thia year’s debating class is pro­
gressing much more rapidly than did
last year's.
Following the receiving of four
packages of material from Ann Ar­
bor, we immediately started taking
notes on the subject, which is: "Re­
solved that the several nations should
make government monopolies of the
manufacture and sale of all combat
instruments of war." The class di­
vided into two teams: Arloa Swift,
Frances Maurer and Gladys Eddy on
one. and Richard Mason. Edward
Haines and Grace Wood on the other
side. Norma Baas and Edith Belson
are acting as substitutes this year.
We had our first practice debate
last Thursday, with very promising
resuls. Both sides gave very good ar­
guments and this year’s newcomers
showed much promise in rebuttals
Last Friday we went to Hastings to
attend- a conference on Debating. It
is a hew idea started this year with
the purpose of bringing the various
teams together to study the question.
The chicken supper was greatly en­
joyed, and an hour of dancing after­
wards was greatly enjoyed, and the
pupils received a great deal of help
in understanding the question.

Business Birthday
Of The Wenger Bros,
Came From Caledonia. Menno In
Meat Bnslneas, Retail Or Wholesale,
Here For 32 Years.

Thirty-two years ago last Saturday
Wenger Bros., Menno and Noah Wen­
ger, of Caledonia, entered the local
business field, and for that continu­
ous period the former has been en­
gaged in the meat business in Nash­
ville, either in the retail or wholesale
field, while Noah Wenger has been in
business here about 20 years of the
time, there being a period when the
Wenger name did not appear on Main
street and retail stores.
They came here together and con­
tinued so until Menno Wenger dis­
posed of his retail itnerest to engage
in the wholesale business, then before
the World war, Noah Wenger sold out
to Vidian Roe, father of Vidian Roe,
Jr., which brought the business back
into the Roe family, the Wengers hav­
ing bought out Henry Roe &amp; Son,
(not Vidian), upon their business em­
barkation here, the Roe son, who
was to have been the Son ol the late
Henry Roe &amp; Son business firm, hav­
ing been William Roe, who had been
in the meat business at Middleville
and who returned here suffering from
chronic appendicitis to die two weeks
later. Then Ernest Roe went in with
the father and when the business was
sold to Wenger Bros., he went to
Montana, where he died 10 years ago.
The Vidian Roe, to whom Noah
Wenger sold, also died, and several
changes in the business at that loca­
tion followed before Menno Wenger
returned to the retail meat trade
with Irvin Troxell, as Wenger &amp; Trox­
el, and later Noah Wenger returned
to Nashville and bought out Mr.
Troxel.
The firm remains Wenger Bros.,
with a younger Wenger, Harold Wen­
ger, son of Menno Wenger, assisting
in the business. The Wengers have
always been active fraternally, in
sports and in the civic life of the
community, and Menno Wenger is

The Woman’s Literary club met at
Putnam Library Wednesday after­
noon, Oct 16, for Indian Day.
It was an ideal autumn day, and
the members enjoyed a very interest­
ing program, both musical and liter­
ary.
Mrs. John Greene was the afternoon
hostess and announced the following
program:
Roil call—Indian names and their
meaning, which proved both interest­
ing and instructive.
A paper on "Indian Legends,” writ­
ten by Mrs. Fred Elder, was very
ably given by Mrs. Gail Lykins. She
said that "the pioneer failed to un­
derstand their brown skinned neigh­
bors and much told about them is er­
roneous.
Their Happy Hunting
Ground is purely a myth of the white
man, as the Indian looked upon heav­
en as a place where there was noth­
ing to Ho but dance, sing and play
games.." The Indians have many
beautiful and weird legends. That of
Hiawatha has a permanent place in
our literature, though unfortunately
the hero is portrayed as an Algonquin
of the Lake Superior region, when he
was really a chief of the Iroquois; and
many of the Indian traditions resem­
ble the old Bible stories, particularly
those of Joseph, of the passing thru
the divided waters of the Red Sea.
and of the guidance and feeding of
the Israelites in the wilderness, or
mighty achievements of fabled ances­
tors.
"Saving Indian Music from Obli­
vion," Mrs. George Taft, was also a
most interesting paper. Music plays
a vital part in the Indian’s existence.
It is the principal medium by which
he communicates with the unseen. Ho
hunts, fights, plays his games and
worships with songs, although they,
have no patriotic songs. Some songs
mention the tribes.
According to
Ethelbert Nevins, the famous com­
poser who spent several summers
with the Blackfoot Indians of Mon­
tana, the weird charm of Indian mu­
sic Is lost in the white man’s inter­
pretation because of his inability to
reproduce the tones, consequently
there is no hope of “saving from ob­
livion" the aboriginal music after the
red man has passed away, although
it is said that for the first time in
history the birthrate among Amer­
ican Indians now exceeds the death
rate. Mrs. Taft, having at one time
been a teacher in an Indian school in
Oklahoma, was just the one to so
picture the scenes that everyone
present felt they had actually been
there too. The Indian instruments
include the flute and drum. The na­
tive flute is made of two pieces of
cedar, hollowed out and glued -togeth­
er with pine pitch, and tied around
with sinews. She had a fond memory
of "David," the boy who played the
bugle. He played Taps at night from
the boys' dormitory, and his music
was beautiful to listen to.
The beautiful Indian song. "By the
Waters of Minnetonka," was sweetly
sung by Mesdames Clarence Mater.
Frank Caley and Gail Lykins, accom­
panied by Mrs. John Purchis,
“In­
dian Summer," a piano solo, was
beautifully played by Mrs. Milo
Young. “Ghost Pipes,

The new regulations for the collectask. It provides that all who are in

mark shall be eligible to aid to an ex­
tent of not over &gt;30.00 per month.
On July 1 there were over 48,000 pe­
titions on file, all of which of course
had to be investigated. To date over
9,500 have been extended aid. Thus
far the maximum has been &gt;15.00 per
month because the &gt;1,900,000 appro­
priated by the state would not go
around at a higher figure and in addi­
tion most of those who had applied
could manage on the smaller amount
Dr. Philip A. Callahan, who is head
of the division handling the work,
made a careful study of all the laws
in operation to the several states
which had adopted the plan. Montana
was the first in 1923 and now there
are no “poor houses” in that state
nor in Delaware where a similar sys­
tem is in operation.
He feels that
the present act is the best in the un­
ion. It conforms to the federal sta­
tute except os to ege and period of
residence. The first will meet the
federal law in 1940. It wili then be
automatically 65. The state law calls
for 10 years of residence in Michigan
while the Social Security Act says 5.
However, the governor is empowered
through tne welfare director to lower
the requirement to 5 years and as
soon as conditions warrant this will
be done.
As matters stand the federal gov­
ernment will match state moneys dol­
lar for dollar, although this cannot be­
gin before the first of the year. The
state is now accepting applications
from people who have reached the age
of 65 so they will be on file when ac­
tion is taken.
Dr. Callahan believes that there
will be 21,000 people eligible when the
investigations have been completed.
■With the lower age level he thinks
that the number will be about 58,0000.
It Is obvious that they cannot be tak­
en care of without federal help.
An Interesting feature is the fact
that the cities present the greatest
number of applicants. The rural peo­
ple seem to find themselves in better
conditolns than those of the larger
centers.
It will be a great thing when older
people, who are dependent, can live in
dignity at home and not find them­
selves institutionalized. Some day the
doctor believes we will find on all
state and federal statute books pro­
visions for real old age as well as un­
employment insurance but in the
meantime we must do the best we can
to meet the problem.
Highway Department Faces Problem.
The use of federal funds for high­
way purposes in Michigan is making
a very serious problem for Commis­
sioner Murray D. Van Wagoner and
his assistants In the highway depart­
ment The works program has as­
signed &gt;12,000,000 to the territory
north of town-line 12. In this part
of the state it is planned to base the
selection of highways and the type of
construction entirely on the demands
of the tourist business. This is the
biggest industry in that part of Mich­
igan and must be considered first.
South of this line the road con­
struction is of the "Farm to market"
type. Here the commissioner believes
that the needs call for black top rath­
er than concrete. He has asked for
an additional &gt;10,000,000 for this
work and has been tentatively prom­
ised half of that amount.
This treatment is made by applying
an oil aggregate to the surface of

last legislature, are saving the far­
mers of Michigan over &gt;1,200,000 per
year according to the estimates made
by the sales tax division of the state
government As is generally known,
seed, fertilizer, stock and machinery
together mith such other minor arti­
cles as binder twine arc all sold tax
free. The theory being of course that
they are a necessary part of the pro­
duction of farm products which are
placed in the same category as manu­
factured articles. At any rate the
farmers of Michigan are benefiting
materially by the change.
Busy Department
A visit to the sales tax department
is one of the really interesting trips
which may be made about the state
capitel. It is this division which rais­
es the money which has taken Mich­
igan's general fund out of the red and
placed it in the black.
The offices located in the Tussing
‘Building, are laid out for work and
are being used for the purpose, as ev­
en the most casual visitor will be
convinced.
It begins to look as though the di­
vision will produce over &gt;42,000,000
for the state treasury this year. It
is estimated that about &gt;4,500,000
will be los by reason of legislative ac­
tion exempting so many materials
used in manufacture and on the
farm. The legislature estimated the
reduction at over &gt;5,000,000 but it
will not run that high. The budget
commissioner hoped that the figures
for the year would gross &gt;36,000,000,
so it is clear that his figures will be
greatly exceeded. The department of
labor and Industry figure an indus­
trial increase of eight and one-half
per cent so that the greater part of
this increase is due to increased ef­
ficiency to collecting.
In July and
August of 1935 there was collected
5683,845.26 more than during the
same period of 1934.
There are more field agents out and
they are carefully routed now so that
the places are visited consecutively.
This has revealed many places which
should have been paying and never
have done so. During July, 3,024
were so discovered. These represen­
tatives alone collected during this
time &gt;340,259.28 unpaid taxes. Eight
concerns were found owing over
&gt;100„000.
The personnel has also increased
decidedly. The pay roll for July,
1935, was &gt;37,994 as compared with
&gt;24,886 the year before, but as Direc­
tor Joseph Finley said, “Each In­
creased dollar of expense has result­
ed in an increase of revenue of
&gt;17^7."
The Flynn bill, exempting mater­
ials and machines used in manufac­
turing and upon the farm, increased
the burdens of the division. The Lans­
ing office alone had an increase in
mail in the first month of from 75,­
267 pieces to 168,745, while the De­
troit office showed the same propor­
tion of added work.

such orders issued.
v
Many hearings must be held in De­
troit, and twice a year the commis­
sion sits to the upper peninsula in or­
der to hear cases there.
Commis­
sioners Ford, Wise and Mrs. Allie
are very busy people. Cnmmissioner
Wade handles the problems of labor.
He is an expert also to his field.
A study of the records seems to
show that a majority of the accidents
reported come from falling objects in
factories and workshops. The auto­
mobile industry, the largest in the
state, is relativesly low in the number
of accident reports.
The employers and employees of
the state are today in sympathy with
the law and its operations. One of
the commissioners said the other day,
"Our job is to amicably settle claims
by employees against employers. The
fine spirit manifested by both parties
to these perplexing questions has
been refreshing.”
New Hotel Law.
The last legislature passed a new
hotel act as the result of the terrible
Hotel Kerns fire last year. This law
provides rigid requirements for all
hotels, rooming houses, etc. Unless
built of fire-resisting or fireproof ma­
terials, they must provide ropes in
each room for exit in the event of
fire. They must have watchmen on
duty and have exits properly lighted.
In fact every precaution is now re­
quired. The fire marshal's division of
the state insurance department is re­
quired to make frequent and careful
inspections/
The enforcement of this law natur­
ally falls heavily upon the Insurance
department and Commissioner John
C. Ketcham has been very active in
administering the new act The man
directly in charge is Charles V. Lane
who is head of the fire marshal's di­
vision.
Mr. Lane reports that the cooper­
ation of hotel people has bten most
gratifying and he believes that the
traveling public may feel safer in
Michigan than ever before in its his­
tory.

The "Compact" Conference.
In 1934 Congress passed legislation
sponsored by Michigan's junior Sen­
ator to m«ke it a federal offense for
a person charged with a felony or a
witness in such a case to escape to
another state to avoid trial or appear­
ing as a witness at such a trial. Fol­
lowing this action Michigan passed
legislation enabling the governor to
enter into compacts with other states
in efforts to peal with crime and to
handle problems of persons under
probation or parole.
In an effort to secure cooperation
between the several states a confer­
ence was held a few days ago at
Trenton, New Jersey. Deputy Attor­
ney General Hon. Miles N. Culehan
and Superintendent Oscar Olader of
the state police attended from Mich­
igan. The questions discussed were
chiefly those of interstate compass,
the extradition of criminals and those
charged with crime and witnesses and
interstate bureaus.
Mr. Culehan took a very active part
in the conference and delivered a ra­
dio address in which he spoke very
highly of Senator Vandcncbrg'r. ef­
forts to secure the federal enactment
which makes the movement possible.
He said, "We are faced with crime
and-must do our utmost to stamp it
out."
About 75 leaders from the various
states were present. Jurists, legisla­
tors. attorney generals and other en­
forcement officials were represented.
Court Has Not Yet Acted.
No action has as yet been taken by
the supreme court in the vexatious
problem of the department of public
instruction. It did, however, grant a
motion of the attorney general last
week to include in the record of the
case, the fact that the incumbent. Dr.
Paul F. Voelker, did not file his bond
until in November of 1033, some four
months after he entered upon the of­
fice.
It is believed that action has been
delayed because of the serious illness

State of Michigan, the Probate
In the matter of the estate of

Evidence presented at the public
hearing in Washington on the 1935
Potato Act resulted in the approval
of the Act by representatives of
growers; but, with the approval, was
a request that the Act be amended at
the next session of Congress, accord­
ing to R. J. Baldwin, administrator of
the AAA in Michigan.
Funds to finance the Potato Act
were to be provided for by a bill
which failed to pass Congress in the
final days of the last session. Appli­
cation was then made to the Comp­
troller to provide the money from
other fund which might be available.
No funds have been presented to the
present rim*
The committee at Washington re­
commended the enforcement of the
Act for the allotment year which be­
gins December 1, 1935.
The changes in the Act recom­
mended for presentation to Congress
as soon as it reconvenes included
making the law affect only growers
who produced for sale more than 50
bushels of potatoes, the requirement
of an approval by vote from the
growers for the continuation of the
Act after the marketing year which
would end November 30. 1936, and to
exclude the consumer from any penal­
ties arising from the sale of potatoes
in unstamped packages.
The Potato Act does not in any
way affect either the consumption nor
the sale of potaoes at the present
time. Sales allotments must be made
for growers before any restrictions
are placed on sales. Every person
interested in potatoes will be given
ample notice of the establishment of
such allottments.

Notice is hereby given that four
months from the 11th day of Octo­
ber, A. D. 1935, have been allowed for
creditors to present their claims
against said deceased to said court
for examination and adjustment and
that all creditors of said deceased are
required to present their claims to
said court, at the probate office, in the
city of Hastings, in said county, on or
before the 11th day of February, A.
D. 1935, and that said claims will be
heard by said court on Thursday, the

improved prices of term products
will help make some of these plans
practicable, according to the home
economics division at Michigan State
college.
Sewage disposal, water systems,
and lighting systems are three Im­
provements which require careful
planning and which repay the plan­
ners for the time spent on them. Both
money and future worries can be
saved if the planning includes study
of available bulletins and. visits to
homes which have installed the con­
veniences which are contemplated.
The agricultural engineering de­
partment at Michigan State coUege is
always ready to give advice to per­
sons who intend to make home im­
provements. Members of the depart­
ment have supervised the installation
of hundreds of septic tanks In Mich­
igan in the last 20 years. They have
drawn plans for all types of water
systems and have made writing dia­
grams for the installation of electrical
service.
Most of these home conveniences
are not as expensive as the average
person believss and can be Installed
with a minimum of remodeling in
buildings already erected. Both the
college at East Lansing and the U. S.
Dept of Agriculture at Washington.

and Illustrate the ways of making

RAILROADS IN BAHRY CO.
EMPLOY THIRTY-SIX WORKERS

What "the railroad" means to Batry county is illustrated in the first
study ever made of the economic
value of its railroads to Michigan,
recently prepared by the Michigan
Railroad Employes and Citizens Lea­
gue. ’
Four lines. P. M., M. C., N. Y. C.,
C. K. 4 S. Railroads, operate in this
county. They have a combined total
of 68 miles of track, and employ 36
workers earning &gt;22,047.48 annually.
The county also receives as Its share
of the primary school fund and in di­
rect levies &gt;34,520.45 of the taxes
Michigan's railroads pay Into the
state treasury.
—Fred L. Woodworth, state wel­
fare director, said Oct 8 that 9.500
persons were receiving an average of
&gt;10 a month under Michigan's revis­
ed old age assistance law.

WEIGHT TAX REFUND
CHECKS GO BEGGING
More than $2,500 in checks lies
unclaimed in the Department of
State, the checks being made payable
to motorists entitled to their refunds
for weight taxes paid in 1934 before
the legislature in special session re­
duced the rate. The former rata of
55 cents per hundred pounds of a
passenger car's weight, was reduced
to 35 cents. Before the change was
made, thousands of motorists had al­
ready bought their 1934 plates, and
were thus entitled to refunds of the
difference in payments. Checks for
510 motorists remain in the files, no
record of their owners traceable.
They average $5 each. The only cur­
rent inquiries into this matter are
from motorists who received their
checks, cashed them and forgot all
about it
QUEER MAIL COMES
TO ATWOOD’S DESK
While all public officials get their
share of mail improperly addressed to
them, Orville E. Atwood believes his
office holds some sort of record of this
kind. It seems that people who do
not know to whom to write, send
their questions and demands to the
Secretary of State, no matter who he
might be. In the last few weeks, let­
ters have covered such widely diver­
gent matters as: a complaint from a

child, a demand that a certain poolroom be closed because of the charac­
ter of those who allegedly patronize
it, a request for the addresses of a
number of Hollywood film stars, and
many complaints about people who
arc accused of making "moonshine."

FIGURES REVISED
ON BUILDING, LOAN
It was erroneously stated by the
Department of State last week that
the total assets of all Michigan build­
ing and loan corporations was $6,­
4343,827.29, whereas this is the total
of only cash and securities of these
companies. Their assets total $114,­
871,254.52. The statement that they
had advanced &gt;1,400,000 during the
lust fiscal year on shareholders’ ap­
plications, should have read ”$5,434,663.63.”

tal as a recompense for ignorance.”

Our municipal well gives every evi­
dence at the present time of being
one of the finest in the state in qual­
ity and volume, but the latter has still
to be proven.
Col. Rich of the State Board of
Health and a state engineer were here
Monday on an inspection trip of the
12 inch well and were much pleased
with the water from the 55 foot per­
manent well. The engineer said this
was the finest water bearing strate
he had ever seen.
They recommended a coarse screen
of copper silicon, 12 inches in diam­
eter and 20 feet long, screen size
125-1000, made to order by the John­
son Co. of St. Paul, Minn., which will
probably arrive in 10 days or two
weeks by freight
Whether the supply will be suf­
ficient from the one well will be de­
termined only when the screen is in­
stalled and developed.
It is understood that the main’s
extension project has been approved
by the government, but official notice
has not been received. Mayor Lorbeck has signed an order for the re­
quired materials, amounting to $1500
or so. to be furnished by the govern­

PWA approval of the Nashville
school project, with addition to the
local school totalling about $92,000,
with a federal grant of over $41,000
as its 45 per cent of the cost, was re­
ceived the very last of last week,
from L. J. Sarvis Battle Creek, ar­
chitect for all projects to which the
W. K. Kellogg Foundation is a con­
tributor, one of the first three of
more than 100 major PWA projects
which were being considered In Wash­
ington. Naturally there was general
satisfaction at the outcome.
These federal-projects move slowly
but exactly, like a game of chess.
There's no rushing ahead until the
various steps are taken in the exact
order. The approval meant in effect
to go ahead to the next step, and
that to advertise for bids for general
construction, plumbing, heating, tem­
perature regulation, and electrical
work for an addition to an existing
school building, which notice, prepar­
ed by the government itself, appears
in another column, with directions
and conditions.
Sealed proposals may be submitted
up to 2 p. m., Nov. 14. All bids may
be rejected or held 60 days. Blds are
to be delivered to the office of the
Board of Education in the high school,
Nashville.
No decision had been made Tues­
day with regard to sale of bonds.

Mr*. Elmira Hullinger
I* 88 Year* Of Age
Her Children And Only Sister With
Her In Week End Celebration
■
Here.

Mrs. Elmira Hullinger celebrated
the 88th anniversary of her birth at
the home of her daughter, Mrs. Fred
M. Wotring. Her natal day was Oct.
24th, but the celebration continued
over the week end. Her three sons
arid their wives were all present, also
her only sister, Mrs. Emma Plott of
Wayland.
Mrs. Hullinger has lived in Nash­
ville or vicinity for the past 57 years.
Since the death of her husband 22
years ago, she has made her home
with her only daughter, E. Maude
Wotring. Her children and grand­
children have been her chief interest
in life.
Nashville has figured very prom­
inently in the lives of her children. It
was here they attended high school.
It was here her boys began their life
work and chose their life companions.
O. M. Hullinger, now freight agent
of the Michigan Central R. R. lines,
began his career as helper at the M.
C. depot here.
He married a Nash­
ville girl, Lillian Feighner, who died
and later he married the present Mrs.
Hullinger, another Barry county girt.
Miss Maude Kelley of Hastings.
W. O. Hullinger of Royal Oak be­
gan his newspaper career as "devil"
at The News office. He later became
editor and publisher of the ML Pleas­
ant Times and Royal Oak Tribune.
Mrs. Hullinger was the former Mabel
Cooper of Nashville.
B. C. Hullinger of Villisca, Iowa,
whose wife was Ava Boise of Nash­
ville, also learned the printing busi­
ness in the office of Len W. Feighner
and has been editor and publisher of
The Villisca Review since leaving
Nashville over 35 years ago.
Her daughter married a Nashville
boy and has always lived in or near
Nashville. Mrs. Hullinger has lived to
see all of her twelve grandchildren
go through college. She has also fif­
teen great-grandchildren.
Mrs. Bullinger’s birthday was re­
membered by her friends with letters,
cards, cut flowers, fruit, candy and
potted plants, besides many useful
presents.
This family get-together was very
thoroughly enjoyed by Mrs. Hullinger
who is mentally alert and physically
able to be about.
Besides those mentioned, three
grandchildren were present George
Wotring of Kalamazoo, Louise Wot­
ring of Lansing and Russell Hullinger
of Grand Rapids.

Through The Efforts of C. of C.
Com., City National of Battle
Creek, Opens Branch Here
Part Of Recovery Plan For Community
Saturday, November 2, is an im­
portant day in Nashville's history. It
marks the restoration of banking
service to residents of the village and
the surrounding community, after a
period of over four years.
The City National Bank and Trust
Co. of Battle Creek, strong financial
Institution of our enterprising neigh­
bor city, is opening an office here In
the building formerly occupied by the
Nashville State bank, which has been
redecorated for its occupancy.
The Installation of this banking
service here is the outcome of the de­
termined and well directed efforts of
a group of members of the Nashville
Chamber of Commerce, Earl D. Olm­
stead. R. V. Hess, president, and Dr.
Stewart Lofdahl, to interest the of­
ficers of the City National Bank in
the local needs for a banking institu­
tion and to picture the resultant op­
portunity to all parties, as a broaden­
ing service and investment for the
bank and complete home banking ser­
vice and all that that implies for
Nashville and the surrounding com­
munity.
The City National accepted the
challenge, with the result that begin­
ning Saturday this branch bank is
prepared to serve the public In its
varying needs, and more to become a
part of the community, ready and
alert to every opportunity, to boost
Nashville and its community, with Its
very solid parent-bank, the City Na­
tional. at its back at all times.
A wise selection for branch man­
ager was made by the City National,
Frank S. Boies, who comes here to
assume that position and to reside in
our community, has been closely con­
nected with the banking business in
Michigan and Iowa, and for five years
has been representative of the Mu­
tual Life Insurance Co. of Iowa, and
with this background there should be
sound financial judgment and policies

for the baqk and the further devel­
opment of the community, to the im­
portant place it should occupy.
Getting a bank has been one of the
first objectives in a program for re­
habilitation of village and surround­
ing community, neither of which can
prosper without the other, a program
calculated to bring back both business
and property values in a steady
growth.
This program calls for loyalty upon
the part of every resident, shoulder
to shoulder in financial, moral, physi­
cal and spiritual support of Nashville,
the home town, that the boosting may
not be lopsided.
There was never such a need for
cooperation, the opportunity never so
great Where there Is loyalty ex­
pressed in cooperation, efforts bring
rich results.
There is nchiness already in the
civic lap, and it represents unceasing
and well directed efforts to secure
things which Nashville needed, while
the federal monies were being put in­
to the national hopper in a recovery
effort. We are referring to our com­
pleted federal highway program of
1935-35, our M-14 bridge and pave­
ment to the north village limits; to
our $92,000 school addition, with fed­
eral grant and financial aid of W. K
Kellogg Foundation to assist, upon
which the government has acted fa­
vorably, and construction of which
will begin in the near future; our new
water supply in process of realization
and extension of water mains to be
realized soon; re-opening of our thea­
ter by initiative of a Detroiter, who
leased for a year. These all point to
better times.
Join the “boosters’’
and "boost”
The News believes Nashville is
coming back, an objective lesson to
towns which are just "waiting” with­
out "doing” for recovery.

Mae Dean and Mra. Ed. Hafner pre­
senting the program, part of which
will consist of reports from the Na­
tional convention.

The Gas Problem.
The Public Utilities commission
ordered an adjournment of the hear­
ing on all six contested applications
for permits from the public utilities
commission for the construction of
gathering and pipe lines for the car­
rying of natural gas. It will be tak­
en up once more on Nov. 1, but It
seems probable that still more time
will be necessary for all to be heard.
The problem has become very ccmplicated because of the fact that the
producers, consumers and utilities
have all asked to place their cases
before the commission.
At the original hearing Alfred
Doughty of Lansing had insisted that
his claims were valid but he failed to
appear last week at the continuation.
It had been clearly shown that he had
no real personal interest Lu the mat­
ter and that his “franchise” from the
City of Lansing had been violated in
several respects.
A. Sarkission of Detroit was not
present but was represented by coun­
sel and still seemed to insist that
there was enough gas in sight to war­
rant a pipe line to Detroit. His at­
torney placed Dr. Richard Smith,
state geologist, on the stand and he
stated that there had been large in­
creases in proven reserves in recent
months and suggested that the fed­
eral government be asked to bring its
records to date and on them to issue
a new report. This will probably be
done.
The Consumers Power Co. has an
application before the commission for
the construction of a pipe line from
the Mecosta-Montcalm field to Lans­
ing and farther east including many
intermediate points. It would furnish
these places with natural gas instead
of the artificial which most of them
now use. The city council of Lansing
appeared through its attorney and
protested against granting the per­
mit unless a larger pipe line (an 8
inch line had been proposed) were or­
dered. He also demanded that the
Consumers admit its position as a
common carrier and its being under
the common carrier law so far as the
pipe line would be concerned.
Ob­
viously the company could not agree
to that as it weald mean that once a
pipe line had been constructed, it
would have to carry gas for any pro­
ducer.
Grand Raipds which is serviced by
the Grand Rapids Gas Light Co., a
subsidiary of the American Light and
Traction, also sent in objections,
claiming that that ciy is much nearer
the fields than Is Lansing and that its
needs should be considered first. How­
ever no one is asking for a pipe line
to Grand Rapid and its environs.
The Petroleum Transportation Co.
in the meantime has a contract with
a number of producers.
In fact It
was organized by them in an effort to
secure a market for the gas of the
field, centering largely in Belvidere
township, Montcalm county.
This
contract has met with objections on
the part of the royaly-holdera, or at
least some of them. Their attorney,
D. Hale Brake of Stanton, claims
that it Is to ironclad. The Consum­
ers is said to have secured a relation­
ship with the Petroleum Transporta­
tion Co., which gives it a virtual mo­
nopoly on the gas handled by the Sut­
ter corporation. Mr. Brake’s clients
contend that they are not assured of
a market because of the terms of this
contract. They fear that the pool
will be drained before some of the
wells would have an opportunity to
dispose cf their natural production.
Then there is the question of price.
The contracts made by the Petroleum
Transportation Co. cal! for a price of
15 cents per thousand cubic feet at
the well heads with a 3 cent charge
for transportation and another 3 cent
deduction when the pressure shall
have been lowered to a point where a

They
claim that other states give higher
prices, pointing to one case of 27
cents being paid.
• Investigation
.shows that there is a wide range of
prices. There are places in the Unit­
ed Stated where as low as 3 cents is
the prevailing figure. This group of
producers asks the commission to fix
the well head prices.
Briefly the entire case has three
angles, that of the distributor, that
of the consumer and that of the pro­
ducer. It is the task of the commis­
sion to try to come to a fair under­
standing and settlement There is a
good deal of doubt as to the author­
ity of the commission to go into the
matter of contract, as those between
the producer and the Petroleum
Transportation Co.
At any rate it would appear that
the "commission will have weeks of
hard work before all the facts can be
considered and a fair conclusion
reached.

Then
the idea that to go hunting is "the

youth’s manner
of quietly and thoroughly performing
his duties observed, “You will usually
accomplish more than those around
you who may make more show of
their efforts, but you do your work so
quietly that oftentimes what you ac­
complish will no be appreciated.’’ At
the moment the youth felt that he
was receiving valued praise and was
comforted. When maturity had been
reached, however, and weightier du­
ties assumed, he remembered that
earlier appraisal of his characteris­
tics, sometimes a little ruefully, when
he saw that neither his motives nor
his work met with appreciation such
as had been shown by a discerning
mother. But he had learned that he
must go on doing what it was right
for him to do, and that others' appre­
ciation must not be depended upon as
an incentive, or lack of it allowed to
be a deterrent to his own right doing.
He had learned through Christian
Sciedce, as had many another, the
meaning of the assurance voiced
through the prophet’s words (Isaiah
30:15), “In quietness and in confi­
dence shall be your strength."
Not througn a sense of human abil­
ity and strength is one’s best work
done, but through confidence in God,
divine Mind, as the only intelligence
and power. Quietness, which may not
attract the world’s attention or its ad­
miration, may rest in active spiritual
confidence and aid in the accomplish­
ment of that which is good. Mortals
sometimes have much self-reliance
and strive to attract attention In their
manner of speaking and doing. They
do not like the spiritual assurance
which may accomplish much without
notice. Having a false trust in mater­
iality, they think they need the praise
of materiality. Holding to this atti­
tude of thought, however, they miss
the strength to do and endure which
comes from reliance on God, as alone
the source of guiding wisdom and of
all that is real and good.
Those who through Christian Sci­
ence are turning away from false
trusts and adopting the Scriptural
command and promise

Health with Key to the Scriptures ’
(p. 368), where Mary Baker Eddy
says, “The confidence Inspired by
Science lies in the fact that Truth is
real and error is unreal.” In Chris­
tian Science error is understood to in­
clude all that is unlike God and His
good creation. All the inharmonies of
mortal existence—the pain, the sor­
row, the limitation, tho defeat—all
these are figments of an unreal
dream of existence as material, as
something which God does not know
or govern or bless. But “error is un­
real.” and knowledge of this fact,
which comes to the seeker when be
begins to study Science and Health,
becomes a part of his mental equip­
ment in demonstrating the fact that
"Truth Is real." All that is good and
desirable, all that is wholesome and
happifying, is obtainable through re­
alization of the truth of being, the
truth of God’s goodness and allness,
and of the perfection of the real man,
which includes the spiritual selfhood
of all.
Here indeed is a basis for true con­
fidence and for working onward and
upward, from whatever present sit­
uation, in quietness and certainty of
attaining spiritual harmony and sat­
isfaction. Sometimes, when error’s
claims to reality appear particularly
persistent, when right effort and work
meet with resistance, and when de­
feat rather than demonstration seems
at bend, one may temporarily lose the
sense of quietness and confidence and
feel the disturbing anxiety which er­
ror suggests. At such times may a
student of Christian Science has healingiy reminded himself of the com­
mand (Psalms 48:10), “Be still, and
know that I Rm God: ... I will be
exalted in the earth.” In obeying it
he has regained spiritual serenity,
knowing that, whatever the evidence
before the senses, his real selfhood, as
well as that of all others, is ever abid­
ing in Truth, which alone is real.
Of our God-given ability to de­
monstrate the truth of being in all
our needs, Mrs. Eddy has said (Pulpit
and Press, p. 3), /‘Know,, then, that
you possess sovereign power to think
and act rightly, and that nothing can
dispossess you are this heritage and
trespass on Love.” And in the same
paragraph she continues: “Our surety
is in our confidence that we are in­
deed dwellers in Truth and Love,
man's eternal mansion. Such a hea­
venly assurance ends all warfare, and
bids tumult cease, for the good fight
we have waged is over, and divine
Love gives us the true sense of vic­
tory.” We have today the Science of
ever-present divine Love, and we
have from God the intelligence to un­
derstand and to prove its power. And
in nt Wring the truth we shall find the
promise fulfilled, "In quietness and in
confidence shall be your strength."—

Written At Albion In 1913 by Evan­
gelist, Rev. Bennard, Who Is Since

Most popular of 600 hymns in a re­
cent contest, "The Old Rugged
Cross,’’ such a comfort to us all, was
written in Albion in 1913 by the Rev.
George Bennard, ir. the Deloss Fall
house there, Instead of being an old
hymn as many have believed.
Mr. Bennard. small of stature, white
haired, of pleasing personality, is an
evangelist, conducting meetings in all
Protestant churches, and for his home

He was a young evangelist when he
composed the words and music of this
song. It was heard publicly at an
evangelistic meeting in Chicago.
Not foreseeing its popularity, the
author sold his copyright to the Rodeheaver Publishing Co. in 1920, but is
now connected with the publishing
company,

songs and hymns. He has written
1255 songs. Mr. Bennard has written
another hymn, “The Christ of the Hu­

ATWOOD SENDS NEW
STAMPS TO 20.000 M. C. A. for it builds good citizens
Every letter mailed as first class
matter from the Department of State
on Nov. 1 was in a specially designed
envelope carrying one of the new
Michigan Centenary stamps.
More
than 20,000 pieces cf mail were in­
cluded in the day’r mailing.
The interest taken in tho new
stamp by Orville E. Atwood, Secre­
tary of State, was natural in that the
center design on the stamp is the seal
of the state, which seal, under the
state constitution, is in the custody
of the Secretary of State.
Lansing was designated by the
United States postoffice department
as the “first day city” for this com­
memorative stamp, which meant that
on Nov. 1, the stamp was obtainable
only in Lansing.
On Nov. 2, the
stamp sale was extended to include
the philatelic agency of the federal
postoffice department at Washington*
thereafter the stamps are to be avail­
able at all offices throughout the na­
tion, as fast as they can be sent from
Washington.
In each letter sent first class from
the Department of State, was enclos­
ed a brief statement reciting some
salient facts of the stamp, and its
significance, pointing out the combi*
nation of the special “cover,” the
stamp and the fact that it was can­
celled in the. first day city” for that
stamp.

FOUR SISTERS MARK
SAME WEDDING DAY
It is not often that four sisters
choose the same bridal month and
the same day of the week, but such
was the case of Mrs. Archie Miller of
51 East Columbia avenue and her sis­
ters. The quadruple event anniver­
sary was celebrated with a family
dinner at the Miller home Sunday,
with the father, Walter Vickers of
Nashville, who is 73, as a guest The
event commemorated the 34th anni­
versary of Mr. and Mrs. Miller, which
occurred October 23; the 31st anni­
versary of Mr. and Mrs. E. L. Smith,
October 19; the 30th anniversary of
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Fuller, Nashville,
October 18, and the 28th anniversary
of Mr. and Mrs. Alva Kenyon of Ma­
ple Grove township • on October 23.
All occurred on Wednesday. Places
were set for 26. Michigan holly and
Hallowe'en motifs were combined in
the decorations. The table was cen­
tered with the top layer of Mrs. Mil­
ler's seven-tier wedding cake, which
she has saved through the years. On
it stood a miniature bride and groom
beneath an arch from which a wed­
ding bell was banging. Mrs. Miller
was assisted in serving by her daugh­
ter, Miss Eloise, and by Mrs. Frank
Portmess. Among the guests were
Mr. and Mrs. Merle Miller of Stone
avenue and daughter, Barbara: Mr.
and Mrs. Vaughn Miller and son.
Vaughn, Jr., and Mrs. Ella Elston, all

ler are sons of the host and hostess.—

Find Farm Business
Is Growing Better
Entrance Of Private Agencies Into
Loan Fields Indicates Greater
Confidence.

Col. Al bar.us Phillips, President of
the Phillips Packing company, says:
"Newspaper advertising performs
at least one definite, vital function
which newspapers themselves fail to
emphasize and which, unfortunately,
too few consumers probably realize.
"The popular conception of news­
paper advertising doubtless is that It
represents a highly effective method
of creating consumer interest; is a
reasonably economical means of de­
veloping distribution and that, be­
cause of resultant volume increases,
unit costs of any given commodity are
proportionately reduced—to both the
manufacturer and the consumer.
"But of far greater importance Is
the influence which newspaper adver­
tising wields In setting up standards
of excellence and integrity. Standards
which every advertiser must recog­
nize and observe if there is a sincere
desire to remain an important factor
in any particular field.
"The task of making consumers see
advertising, making them read it, un­
derstand it, believe it and want it, are
all primary functions of newspapers
and the men and women who prepare

sixth point is the problem of the mak­
er of the commodity. And the job of
causing consumers to want the same
product over and over again can only
be accomplished by setting up stan­
dards that are consistently safe­
guarded.
"Newspaper advertising by the
intimacy and frequency of its contact
with readers and potential consumers,
must necessarily play an important
part in a nation's thoughts, customs
and habits. Used merely as a vehicle
of exploitation it has tremendous
power. But when also employed to
represent a standard of integrity and
excellence, and when these virtues
are steadfastly and zealously observ­
ed. newspaper advertising becomes
more than a transient merchandising
method and rises to the fine heights
of a code of honor for the advertiser
and his product and a perpetual safe­
guard for the ultimate consumer."
GLIMPSES OF STATE
S. S. CONVENTION
More than 1000 assembled at the
Plymouth Congregational church at
Lansing Thursday, Oct. 31. to attend
the state S. S. convention. This con­
vention is sponsored by the Michigan
Council of Religious Education, with
headquarters at 532 Mutual Building,
Lansing.
Here you can find a very
worth while library and books are
free for the asking and payment of
postage each way. There is a special
rate of postage for these books, which
is quite low. If one doesn't know
what book he wants, just write and
tell your needs and the librarian will
do her best to supply you.
Dr. Hall of Albion college gave a
soul-stirring address on Friday morn­
ing, "Creating a Christian Society."
After discussing the rise and fall of
our political and economic life, he
said, "This isn’t the first spiritual de­
pression. We’ve had them before.
Shall we rise again?" Then he urged
that we as Christians hold Christ be­
fore the world whole-heartedly. He
said we must give dUr whole lives and
not waver "Can we supply spiritual
engineers?"
He quoted Edward
Markham as saying, "Nothing is
worth the making, if it does not make
the man."
Nothing maters abou our civilizaaion unless it is helpful to the human
beings. This must be brought about
by true fellowship. No such fellow­
ship exists where one section is well
dressed and another in rags; where
one feeds on plenty and the other
starving.
True fellowship means
enough for all.
This can not be
brought about through education
alone unless the heart is trained to
follow the Man of Galilee.
"The headlight of a train will no
more draw a train than man’s intelli­
gence will lead that man without a
spiritual heart to the highest in real
fellowship.’’
He quoted Lippman as saying, "This
generation has a renaesvouz with deettay." Then Dr. Hall said, "I believe
we'll make our rendesvouz economi­
cally and politically, but will we make
It spiritually? Many will dread and
fear. But remember, there must be
love, kindliness and then underneath
all—God. The way of life ts the way
of love."

Several Indications point toward a
real improvement in the economic
conditions of farmers, according to
the economic department at Michigan
State college.
Federal land banks find that they
have fewer requests for mortgage
loans, more prompt payment on out­
standing loans, and a decrease in the
number of loan applications, which
fall In the emergency classification.
Albert S. Goss, land bank commis­
sioner, reports that in six of the land
bank districts 90 per cent of all due
install manta had been paid by Sept 1
and that the average for all 12 dis­
tricts was 82 per cent of installments
paid on the due dates.
Mr. Goss says that most of the ap­
plications now coming in for loans are
made by farmers who wish to refin­
ance their indebtednes and take ad­
vantage of the lower interest rates.
Emergency requests to the farm
credit administration for loans made
by farmers facing foreclosure dropped
below 100 per week for the first time
since the fall of 1933.
The reentrance of insurance com­
panies and banks into the mortgage
loan field is additional evidence of a
belief in better times. Private credit
agencies made loans of $306,000,000
on farm mortgages during the first
six months of 1935 as compared with
loans of $241,000,000 in the same per­
iod of 1934. This was a greater vol­
ume of loans than was handled by the
federal farm mortgage agencies.
The total amount of farm mortgag­
ing in the first half of 1935 tn the
United States was $401,000,000 leas
than the amount written the first six
months of 1934. Life insurance com­

“Adam and Fallen Man’ is the sub­
ject of the Lesson-Sermon in all
Christian Science churches through­
out the world on Sunday, Nov. 10.
Among the Bible citations is this
passage (Romans 11:22): "Behold
therefore the goodness and the sever­
ity of God: on them which fell, sever­
ity; but toward thee, goodness, if
thou continue in his goodness."
Correlative passages to be read
from the Christian Science textbook,
"Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy in­
clude the following (p. 548): "Chris­
tian Science separates error from
truth, and breathes through the sac­
red pages the spiritual dbnse of life,
substance and intelligence. In this
Science, we discover man in the Image
and likeness of God. We see that
man has never lost his spiritual es­
tate and his eternal harmony.”

Nashville and the other villages of
the county, Middleville, Woodland
Freeport, and Hastings city, are to
share in the automobile license money
returned to this county, now that
Barry county’s Covert road bonds
are all paid, the money to be used
only in improvement of streets with­
in their limits.
Originally the state highway de­
partment and county shared the coun­
ty’s automobile license money equally
but the Horton Act provides that all
automobile license money be paid to
Michigan counties, until all counties
shall have retired all their Covert
road bonds: and that will take many
years.
So the board of supervisors, in ses­
sion recently, provided for the final
allocation of the Horton Act money
in the county as follows: "All the
residue of such money for the year
1935 and all the residue for the year
of 1936, not previously allocated by
the board of suprvisors, shall be allo­
cated as provided under subdivision
five of the Horton Act, viz.: To the
villages of Barry county—Nashville,
Freeport, Woodland. Middleville, and
to the city of Hastings—such propor­
tion of such funds specified in subdi­
vision five as the population of the
four villages and the city bears to the
population of the county. The bal­
ance, after deducting such amounts,
shall be allocated to the county road
funds of Barry county."
Barry’s total weight tax amounts
to about 590,000. Half of it goes, by
the provisions of previous iaws into
the county road fund.
Under the Horton law, after the
Covert road bonds are paid, one-half
of the remaining half will go to the
county road commission and the oth­
er half of that half will be divided be­
tween Hastings city, the four villages
and the county. There will be about
322.500 to be divided this way in
1936, about 40 per cent, or 39,000 of
it, to the municipalities, and ail ac­
cording to population. The supervi­
sors will determine what is to be done
with what goes to county road fund.
Just how much the municipalities may
receice from the 1935 Horton money
has not been determined.

Always on the alert to adopt the
latest developments of science in its
never-ending war on crime, the Fed­
eral Bureau of Investigation of the
U. 8. Department of Justice has re­
cently had. teletypewriter exchange
service Installed for communication
between headquarters in Washing­
ton and Its 86 field offices located in
other strategic cities throughout the
country.
Operating out of these field offices
under the supervision of the
Bureau's director, J. Edgar Hoover,
and his staff in Washington, are
some 500 trained men—the famous
"G-Men.” Each field office is super­
vised by a special agent, and is never
closed.
Typewriting at a Distance
Teletypewriter exchange service
does for the written message what
the telephone does for the spoken
word. The teletypewriter is not un­
like an ordinary typewriter in ap­
pearance. But as words are typed
out on it, they are also typed out
identically and at the same instant
on any other teletypewriter with
which it is connected by wire. Thus
the message is reproduced at the
distant point exactly as it is written
on the machine which sends it.
Teletypewriter switchboards, op­
erated by the Bell Telephone Sys­
tem, connect one teletypewriter with
another, Just as its telephone switch­
boards connect two telephones for
an ordinary telephone call. Also, Just
as several telephones may now be
connected for what is known as a
telephone conference call, a number
of teletypewriters may be connected
on one circuit so that all receive the
same message at one time.
Operators Connect Machines
Teletypewriter exchange service
is generally referred to as TWX.
The following may be cited as an ex­
ample of how it Is used by the
Bureau of Investigation.
In the communications section of
the Bureau, in Washington. One of
the men assigned to teletypewriter
work throws a switch on one of the

The Bureau’s operator types “Den­
ver 52,” for instance, and the con­
nection is set up through the switch­
boards to Denver. A moment later,
a bell rings in the Bureau’s field of­
fice in Denver and the field operator
there throws a switch on his tele­
typewriter and types an acknowl­
edgement The connection is now
established, and the teletypewriter
in the Denver office is ready to re­

ting all of the Bureau’s field offices
on the line simultaneously—a con­
ference TWX circuit linking the
headquarters of the Bureau with all
of Its field offices. In well under half
an hour, the message is reaching
every one of them—being typed off
simultaneously, letter by letter,
word by word, line by line.
Find Many Uses
Throughout the network of the
Buieau, with its headquarters and
field offices throughout the country,
similar scenes occur at various
times during every twenty-four
hours. The message may relate to
administrative routine, to a robbery,
to a kidnaping, to any one of hun­
dreds of crimes which the G-Men
track down and—to their credit be
it said—so often solve.
The Bureau is using the newly in­
stalled TWX network with great
effectiveness in its law enforcement
activities, which Include the investi­
gation of offense* against Federal
law. In coordinating the work of the
new widely separated branches of
the Bureau, rapid communication
naturally playa an Important part.
Reports of case*, activities, and
movement* of personnel, as well a*

requests for instructions and advice
as to methods, are all handled by
the fastest communication means
between field offices and headquar­
ter* and between the various field
offices themselves.
Supply Privacy and Speed
An essential requirement of a
communication system which meets
the needs of the Bureau of Investiga­
tion is privacy. Speed, accuracy, and
availability for two-way discussions
are other essentials. These require­
ments are, of course, met by long
distance telephone service, and for
many years the Bureau has been an
extensive user of this type of com­
munication. In many cases, how­
ever, it is desirable that the message
be transmitted in written form,
either for the purpose of preserving
a permanent record dr for other rea­
sons arising out of the nature of the
case. TWX service fully and effi­
ciently meets this latter need, in
combination with the other require­
ments above outlined.
Installed In 38 Cities
TWX equipment has been in­
stalled in thirty-six of the Bureau’s
field offices, there being, of course,
no installation in the Washington
field office, which is located in the
headquarters building. The field of­
fices equipped for TWX service in­

I BARRY CO. ROD A GUN CLUB

In the south side home of&gt; Mr. and
Mrs. Fred Warner occurred an unus­
ual gathering of relatives of Mrs.
Warner, a four generation party, not
so ^ncommon these days but when
the fourth generation is composed of
triplets, that’s unusual, and then
when the triplets have a few days be­
fore celebrated their second natal day
with quadruplets as guests, it adds to
the unusualness ‘ of the occasion.
While still another unusual feature
was that the four generations came in
a party, and all from Lansing.
Mrs. Mary Hope, mother of Mrs.
Warner, heads the four generation
group, and was returning here from
a visit with her Lansing relatives,
while Mrs. Warner’s sister, Mra. Hec­
tor Hawkins, is secqnd in the chain,
and Mra. Hawkins' daughter, Mrs.
Duckworth, for the third generation,
is mother of those fourth generation
triplet*, Bethany Lou, Barbara Mae,
and Bradley Lawrence, two girls and
a boy.
Others in the visiting party were
the triplets’ father, Rev. Mr. Duck­
worth, and their aunt. Miss Marjorie
Hawkins.
This visit, an event of a recent
Thursday, was a gala occasion, and
several outsiders had the privilege of
’’viewing’’ the little visitors, and were
much intrigued with them.
"Twas the Morlock quadruplets of
their home city, Lansing, who attend­
ed the party for their second birth­
day. Apparently all that was lacking
to make it the "unusualist" birthday
event for October in Lansing was the
presence of the celebrated Dionne
quintuplets of Canada, whose doings,
so much publicized, we all follow
with so much interest.
However Nashville has a closer
pride in the triplets, because of the
local connection.
When the trio get a little older and
stronger, and visit "Uncle" Fred
Warner at the Kroger store, grocer­
ies (if within reach) should be “com­
ing down" in a hurry.

Maintaining a perfect record in
their games played on the home grid­
iron, the N. H. S. football team bum­
bled the Charlotte B team Fridav af­
ternoon by a score of .14 to 0.
During the first half play was con­
fined to midfield with neither team
making consistent gain and no scor­
ing threats developing. The last half
was featured by plenty of action,
Nashville scoring one touchdown in
the third quarter on a concerted drive
down the field with straight line
smashes and end runs. Late in the
fourth quarter Nashville again took
possession of the ball on an Intercept­
ed pass and Smith circled the end and
raced three-fourths the length of the
field for another touchdown.
Charlotte's only serious threat came
early in the fourth quarter, when Col­
lins took Putman's forward pass,
eluded the safety man and sprinted 84
yards before he was pulled down on
Nashville's 5 yd. line by Gardner.

The damage was small.

It's an important time again with
the municipal water project. Under
the advice of the village's attorney,
Arthur Kidder of Lansing, the village
has decided to call another special
election to change the bonding prop­
osition from the revenue bond voted
to the general obligation type of
bonding, to save money. Under the
revenue bond plan it would be neces­
sary to collect the water rentals
monthly, Instead of quarterly, calling
for a new set-up with monthly meter
readings and monthly- collections.
Changing to general obligation bond­
ing the present system of meter read­
ing and collections can be carried on.
With regard to the volume of water
of the new 12 inch permanent well,
the city pumper was used the last of
the week and the water was pumped
at the rate of 300 gallons a minute
with approximate draw-down of only
3 inches. The real volume test was
expected to be determined Wednes­
day, the pump was to be operated by
electricity and this had to be brought
to the well, and the flats were now
cleared of the cabbage crop of Her­
bert DeWitt so the water could be run
down there. This has been one of the
problems, what to do with the steady
flow of water in the pumping. Surg­
ing had been accomplished, the draw­
ing out of the fine sand and leaving
the gravel at the bottom of the
screen.
There has also been a change in the
mains extension work on the south
side where a crew is at work; the
size was changed from 2 to 4 inch,
with the village to pay the difference
in price.

Wilbur McVean for the Newberry vi­
cinity; Linus Maurer and a Charlotte
friend, to be joined next week by W.
B. Bera and son, Glenn Bera, under­

There was every indication that this
years deer hunters would have track­
ing snow in either peninsula. Snow,
rain and sleet were reported from
Grand Rapids, and there was snow
this side of Grand Rapids Tuesday
morning, motorists said.

Relocating Of M-37
And Grading Project
First Link In Proposed New Trunk­
Line Route, Hastings To Grand
Rapid*.
Announcement of the grading of
M-37 between Hastings and Middle­
ville on a relocation of the trunk line,
a distance of 13 xniles, was made on
Wednesday of last week by Murray
D. Van Wagoner, state highway commisioner.
This is the first link in the proposed
new direct route between Hastings
and Grand Rapids, and the project is
being financed by WPA funds to be
expended under supervision of the
highway department, at an estimated
cost of &gt;278,130.
A survey crew was charting the
route And actual work was expected
to begin this week. The project is
expected to give employment to 450
men for eight months.
Mr. VanWagoner asks donation of

National Book Week was observed
by the Woman’s Literary club of
Nashville, when the club met for its
regular bi-monthly meeting on Wed­
nesday afternoon of last week.
Mrs. Franz Maurer, the hostess
for the afternoon, opened the meeting
with this verse:
‘‘A book is a treasure more precious
than gold.
An heirloom bequeathed to mankind,
A casket of wisdom wherein we be­
hold
The kingllest gem of the mind."
This was followed by a roll call,
answered with the name of the favor­
ite author.
The choice was varied.
Some chose Kathleen Norris, others
Harold Bell Wright, while individual
members chose Louis Bromfield, Ed­
ith Wharton, John Galsworthy, and a
host of others.
Mrs. Gail Lykins sang “That Dear
Little Woman of Mine,” a song re­
quested by Mrs. John Greene.
Most of the afternoon was taken
up by a very splendid review of the
book, “Life with Father," by Clarence
Day, given by Mrs. Von Fumiss. Mrs.
Fumiss said although the book was
selected as one of the two outstand­
ing books of the year, she did not feel
that it was the best book of 1935.
However, the book proved to be most
interesting and much worth while.
“Life with Father" is a cross sec­
tion of family life of fifty years ago
in New York City. The book opens
with the boy's trip to the city with
his father with a subsequent trip to
Staten Island* to see Buffalo Bill’s
Wild West Show. This trip shows us
father's big office in town where ev­
erything runs smoothly until father
leaves. The book depicts a lovable
father but one who is profane, very
determined, a man who b, never ill
and can't see why anyone else should
become ill.
The mother, who has been describ­
ed by one reviewer as flippant, inef­
ficient and ignorant, appeared to’be
rather clever, if judged by the
schemes she was able to put across.
The family lived In the city in the
winter and summered at Irvington on
the Hudson. The father takes the
train to and from work each day. Al­
though generous with his family, the
father, who loves figures, tries to
make his wife keep a household bud­
get. The wife^ who knows nothing
about figures and cares less about
them, is highly amusing when she
tries to get her husband to
her,
not only the money saved in various
ways, but for the saving
Although father is a domineering
old man, the family Is always loyal.
He lives to be eighty years of age.
Not long before be died he bought a
comer lot in the cemetery, so, as he
said, he could get out in a hurry.
Following the review, Miss Mildred
Caley gave two musical readings,
"The Whip-Poor-Will'' and “Family
Traits." They were very well receiv­
ed. Miss Caley was accompanied by
Mrs. John Purchis.
At the close of the meeting, the
hostess called on Mrs. Arthur Stan­
sell of Algonac for a few words. Mrs.
Stansell congratulated the Literary
club on the fine condition of the libra­
ry and told how much she had enjoy­
ed helping to open the library some
years ago.

Test, Admitted To Bar At Hast­
ings Friday.

The weather man was very incon­
siderate Monday evening for the in­
itial meeting of the local P. T. A. and
as a result attendance was rather
light, so it was deemed advisable to
postpone the formation of a perma­
nent organization until the next meet­
ing and a nominating committee was
named to present a list of candidates
at that time.
Miss Carrie Caley, grade teacher,
was chairman of the program, which
opened with two selections by the
Girls* Glee club, directed by Mr. Low­
er. Principal A. A. Reed gave a talk
regarding the modern trend of educa­
tion in catering to the individual rath­
er than the class groups and the
changes in the required subjects in
the school curriculum.
Supt. W. D.
Wallace also spoke about the school
work mentioning especially the ques­
tionnaires circulated among patrons
of the school and the importance of
the information thus acquired.
He
also distributed a very complete com­
munity appraisal blank with the re­
quest that those present give their
individual views regarding civic con­
ditions.
Len W. Feighner of the school
board outlined the work done and the
progress made in furthering the new
school addition. Bids will be opened
today (Thursday) and he expressed
the conviction that the contracts
would be awarded within a few days
and actual construction work com­
menced within two weeks.
As a concluding feature. Miss Sut­
ton and her Home Economics class
served refreshments of sandwiches
coffee and cocoa.

Despite the rains which prevailed
over most of the time for the presen­
tation of the second series of sound
pictures at our recently reopened
theater, newly equipped and redecor­
ated, the audiences grew in size and
interest, and the statement of Ray­
mond Hebert, who has a lease for a
year, that the pictures would be bet­
ter and better, were verified.
“Oil for the Lamps of China” and
“Anna Karenina”, the first a First
National picture with a star cast
headed by Pat O’Brien, Josephine Hut­
chinson and Jean Muir, and the sec­
ond a M. G. M. picture with Garbo
and Frederick Marsh and others, cou­
pled with good cartoons and comedies
in colors, made a star entertainment
and gave proof that Mr. Hebert with
25 years experience in motion picture
theaters, would be able to do all he
claimed, bring us the best pictures
with improvements as business war­
ranted.
One of the improvements is better,
more comfortable seats, about which
he may have something to say a little
later; he is already figuring on this
change. Mr. Hebert also plans to
buy a home and become a permanent
resident here if the winter business
comes along as he has hopes that it
will, a favorable reaction to the first
class pictures which he plans to bring
here.
For the coming Friday and Satur­
day, Nov. 15 and 16, he will present
as the feature picture “The Murder

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 14,1935
Pleasure Car Michigan newspapers
Or Death Car. are being asked to as­
sume leadership in the
Highway Safety campaign by Henry
T. Ewald, president of the CampbellEwald company, Detroit, who has
been appointed by Governor Fitzger­
ald as public director of the State of
Michigan Safety campaign.
We think the newspapers have
been leaders indirectly for some time,
In a safety campaign, in chronicling
as reliably as possibly the motor ac­
cidents of its immediate or near vi­
cinity, or the nearby counties, togeth­
er with the apparent or real cause.
In other words, in giving the news,
Which calls to attention the increas­
ing number of accidents, and the in­
creasing deadliness, in loss of lives
and property.
An idea of how appalling this loss
of life is—there were nine motorists
killed in five days last week in Cal­
houn county alone and two more vic­
tims were in a critical condition at
the end of that time.
These accidents also involve those
who have remained safe drivers and
who have a right to drive cars on the
highways and go places without the
threat of being wiped out of exist­
ence by unsafe drivers.
Gov. Fitzgerald Is appalled at the
rising fatalities. But the -state sells
liquor and licenses others to sell. Mo­
tor-makers know gasoline and l-'quor
do not work together, but cars are
made to do 100 miles an hour. And
this Is a speed age. Moat everyone
can drive a car and most everyone
does.
Some people almost live in cars,
pausing at home or their rooms, now
and then.
The old time regulations cannot be
enforced. The highways are fine;
they beckon the speedsters; they are
not patrolled; they are full of motor­
ists,—and Disaster.
The motorists
know it, and continue “Full Speed
Ahead.*
.
And the answer?
Safe and sane
driving, by drivers physically and
mentally O. K., with perfect cars, on
perfect highways.
How can it be accomplished with
the world on wheels? Safety hasn’t
kept pace with motoring. It must not
only catch up, but lead, to solve the
question satisfactorily.
Safety will not come until the pub­
lic decides that some certain speed
is enough for any person to travel
and then forces the auto makers to
put on a proper device at the factory
that will limit the speed of the car
to the legal maximum. •

T.e—rm In
Here is a real lesson
Carrying On. for present day defeat­
ists.
Paralysis from
an injury received ’n a fall and a con­
sequent 30 years in a wheel chair did
not serve to end the political career
or splendid usefulness of the life of
Oramel B Fuller, auditor general of
Michigan for 24 consecutive years,
and who rose from the position of
timber cruiser in the Michigan north
woods to high political prestige and
to serve as “watchdog of the treas­
ury" of the state, and who has just
died at the age of 77.
He had instead been one of the
widely acquainted figures in the
state’s public life. His fortunes rose
with the lumbering industry and
eventually he was sent to the legisla­
ture from Delta county, where he
served for some time. He had seemed
a fixture in state politics until John
J. Stack, Jr., also of Escanaba, sup­
planted him in 193?. Business at the
state capital was suspended during
the funeral services for this former
public servant.
A life of achievement surely, but
the big lesson was that he went for­
ward despite his physical handicap,
and carried cm as a public servant
ana was, despite it, the “watchdog of
the treasury.”
“Get Right As we read of the death
With God.” of "Billy" Bunday, the
world famed base ball
evangelist, whose last act the day
previous to his death was to mail to
Oklahoma a memorial he had written
in memory of the late Will Rogers,
the nation's loved comedian, we were
carried back in thought to the days
when be was stffl carrying on his dy­
namic revivals and our neighbor and

Civil war veteran. Major Cole, who
with his cultured wife and daughter,
was in the evangelistic field with the
Sunday group for years, would return
at intervals to his lovely, old fash­
ioned and homey Adrian home, with
the sightly windows in the drawing
room reaching to the floor, with spa­
cious grounds, and the river at the
rear, but the house giving almost im­
mediately upon a noisy brick pave­
ment, over which clattered horse­
drawn hacks and drays, an occasional
automobile, but more spanking teams
and up-ty-up surreys.
.And as he rested here between cam­
paigns and greeted his home friends,
he was always the evangelist, and,
with his “soul saving” thought ever
uppermost, he walked about stooping
now end then to write on the side­
walk this arresting admonition, "Get
Right with God.”
In view of the succeeding world
events and conditions, it recurs to us
again and again. Had that message
been engraven in each heart then and
since, how serene life would have
proven.
No world, no national, no commun­
ity, no home warfare and misunder­
standings, for these thoughts which
breed these things would never have
found lodgment in the individual con­
sciousness. and never have borne
fruit
And now “Billy" Sunday, former
professional ball player, like his for­
mer co-worker, has passed on. this
man whom his friends termed “The
man who saved a million souls,” made
his last “home run.”
Figures made public on
November 14 disclosed
the state emergency
relief
administrstn n
tas spent $203,888,209.54 for direct
relief since June, 1933, when it was
organized.
Of that amount, the report showed,
$152,3678,887 represented federal re­
lief grants, Including $44,44.6 017 in
civil works administration grants and
$480,865 transferred to the SERA
when it began its duties.
Dr. William Haber, state adminis­
trator, said that the state had sup­
plied $25,251,766.
Local governments Dr. Haber said,
contributed $27,659,644.27, including
some local funds not itemized in the
SERA accounts. Local units also ad­
vanced $2,539,264 for CWA materials
and equipment
Of the state and federal contribu­
tions, Wayne county and Detroit used
$62,000,000, the report shows, of
which $9,757,612 came from the state
and $52,704,921 from the federal gov­
ernment
The average number of relief recip­
ients during the 29 months was 650.­
000 a month. The peak, last Decem­
ber, was 860,714, or 17.8 per cent of
the state's population.
The report show's that administra­
tion costs required 8 cents of every
dollar, leaving 92 cents for strictly
relief purposes.
Dr. Haber has estimated that $14,­
200,000 will be required to meet Mich­
igan's relief needs during the next
year, after the federal government
discontinues its direct relief contribu­
tions.
Of that amount, $5,650,000
must come from local units.

More Than
200 Million
Since 1933.

Divine
Who has not often felt a
Guidance, deep desire to know just
which road to take, just
which way to go, just what to do
about some questions which must be
decided? The disturbing effects of
indecision often turn one sincerely
and prayerfully to God, though God
may as yet be little understood by the
individual as the infinite all-knowing
divine Mind, and though one may not
thus far have kown his real self as
the precise image and likeness of that
Mind, and therefore capable of mani­
festing infinite intelligence. Nothing
is more heartening and sustaining than
to realize that divine Love is ever
available to point out the way—the
way to all good, peace and plenty,
health and happiness.
It is never difficult to decide quick­
ly to accept that which we know to
be good. There are, however, ques-

cates the neceerity for one carefully
to differentiate between spiritual in­
tuitions. unfolding to us God s perfect
plan, and erring mortal suggestion!*,
leading to that which is not good.
The Israelites loved God. They lov­
ed good. They looked to and depend­
ed upon God to. guide them through
their wilderness experiences on to the
promised land—to peace, and joy, and
righteous achievement. God, Mind,
guided them safely, step by step. Onr
spiritually inspired leader, Mary Balt­
er Eddy, wrote in “Science and Health
with Key to the Scriptures” (p. 566):
“As the children of Israel were guid­
ed triumphantly through the Red Sea,
the dark ebbing and flowing tides of
human fear,—as they were led thru
the wilderness, walking wearily thru
the great desert of human hopes, and
anticipating the promised joy,—so
shall the spiritual idea guide all right
desires in their passage from sense to
Soul, from a material sense of exist­
ence to the spiritual, up to the glory
prepared for them who love God.”
Solomon prayed earnestly for “an
understanding heart” that he might
“discern between good and bad”
(I Kings 8.9). XiacSTUWi his desires
were unselfish, because he asked not
for material things, or for revenge
«gainst those believed to be his en­
emies, it is recorded that God not on­
ly answered his prayer for “an under­
standing heart” but also provided for
him "both riches, and honour.” (3-13),
Through Christian Science we learn
that God is infinite divine Mind, that
this all-seeing and all-knowing Mind
is omnipotent, ever present, and evinc­
ible.
God being infinite good. He
knows no evil, no wrong way, no mis­
take, no erroneous decision. Perfect
Mind created all, including man, and
made it good.
As we learn to see
ourselves as God sees us, as Mind’s
image and likeness, perfect, good,
truly intelligent, we find that this
scientific, unity can be demonstrated
here and now. 'God never created a
man unlike Himself, who could fun?tion erroneously, do a wrong thing, or
make a mistake.
Because there may seem to be two
or more ways to go, or because we
may not be just sure of the next step
to take, an anxious desire may be ex­
perienced, even sometimes a longing
for someone to whom we may go for
advice, someone with whom we may
discuss our problem. Albeit the kind­
ly assistance of those who arc exper­
ienced is often helpful and hearten­
ing, and thereby courage may be of­
ten renewed; and we may even be
made to see our own ability to choose
wisely between good and evil—yet
there may come a time when a prob­
lem is of such a character that there
seems to be not even one to whom
we car go for help. Then we may
well turn to God, recognize and ac­
knowledge His supremacy, declare
and realize that God is the all-know­
Ing and all-loving divine Mind, ever
available to guide us safely through
every human experience into a better
understanding and demonstration of
Infinite good.
Mrs. Eddy writes
(ibid., p. 467), “Having no other
gods, turning to no other but the one
perfect Mind to guide him. man is the
likeness of God, pure and eternal,
having that Mind which was also in
Christ.”
Christian Scientists enjoy the bet­
ter things of life because they learn
to depend upon God to guide them in
every step they take. From a careful
study of the teachings of Christian
Science they gain a clearer under­
standing of God and of man's insep­
arable relationship to God. They learn
to know God as infinite, omnipotent,
and ever-present Mind, and under­
stand that because He is ever present
His infifilte goodness is likewise ever
present, and is expressed in wisdom,
health, harmony, happiness, plenty,
fruition.
- It Is revealed that God is Love,
infinite Love, and is ever available to
all. Love liberates mankind and leads
to all good. Peace and joy and pow­
er await those who turn humbly to
divine Love for the solution of every
problem. The mist of indecision is
dispelled, and our way becomes clear
as God's perfect plan for man is un­
folded to us. The right way at all
points is made plan! through an un­
derstanding of Truth and Love as re­
vealed in Christian Science.—Chris­
tian Science Monitor.

STATE SEEKS DATA
ON AUTO CRASHES
Possibly the most powerful weapon
the state of Michigan may ever pos­
sess in its war against unfit or dan­
gerous drivers, is being built up in
steel filing cabinets in the Depart­
ment of State where a central viola­
tions file is being assembled. Reports
have been requested from every pro­
secuting attorney in the state, of all
convictions for violation of motor ve­
hicle laws, and from every police de­
partment in Michigan of all automo­
bile accidents reported to them which
result in injury or death.
The ultimate goal of the plan is
that the true and complete driving
record of every person in the state,
licensed to drive or not, shall be avail­
able on one card, against which appli­
cations for a driver’s license can be
checked. It is expected that this cen­
tral violations bureau will be the
means of eventually eliminating many
dangerous drivers who might never
get into serious criminal or civil suits
as the result of their mishaps.
The Michigan State Police cooper­
ate fully in building up this file. With
complete cooperation of officials thruout the state, it is visualized that if
a Detroit man, for example, is involv­
ed in a crash in Marquette, for in­
stance, it would be only a matter"of
routine, a few days later, to enter this
fact on his card in the central viola­
tions file.
He would be confronted
with his record when he applied for
his driver’s license. The Secretary of
State may refuse to issue these li­
censes for cause.

Veterinarians Hmlth Project
Week's Course.

A step to include practicing veter­
inarians in the Michigan Community
Health project was taken on October
28. 1935, when' a post-graduate short
course in milk and meat inspection
conducted by Michigan State college
and the W. K. Kellogg Foundation
opened for a one week period. A total
of 52 veterinarians from Barry, Alle­
gan, Eaton, Van Buren, Calhoun,
Branch and Hillsdale counties regis­
tered for the course. Those register­
ing from Barry county and adjacent
area were Dr. L H. Brumm, Wood­
land; Dr. L. K. Flower, Delton; Dr.
O. O. Mater, Nashville; Dr. C. EL Mor­
ford, Delton; Dr. B. A. Perry, Hast­
ings; Dr. C. C. Petty, Lake Odessa;
and Dr. G. H. Scoville, Clarksville.
The Sanitary engineer from the seven
above named counties also attended
the course.
During the course an Intensive stu­
dy was made of all phases of milk
and meat inspection. Lecturers in­
cluded specialists from the Michigan
State college faculty, representatives
of the federal Bureau of Animal In­
dustry, the U. S. Public Health Ser­
vice, the state Dept, of Agriculture
and men engaged in Inspection work
in Michigan cities.
The inclusion of the practicing vet­
erinarian in a comprehensive com­
munity health project is a forward
step. The contribution this group of
professional men has made and will
make to the community in the pro­
tection of milk and meat supplies, is
a valuable one. More active partici­
pation of these men will take place in
the near future in Barry county.
To provide a better means of forvzarding the proposed program, the
veterinarians of the seven counties
formed two district organizations.
Barry county is affiliated with Alle­
gan and Van Buren counties In the
western group.
Dr. B. A. Perry of
Hastings was elected president of the
group and Dr. J. A. Schaefer of Van­
Buren county was selected for the
position of secretary.

Home Economics Exhibit
Members of the Home Economics
club and classes, and the teacher,
Miss Bills, greatly appreciate the
splendid cooperation of the business
men of Nashville, and all others who
helped make a success of the fifth an­
nual Ag-He Fair.
We especially
thank the following merchants for the
assistance which they gave us In pre­
paring exhibits in their stores: Ralph
Hess, Vem Bera, Ray Thompson, J.
S. Greene and Frank Caley. Because
of the increased number of rural
school exhibits as well as village
school exhibits, and the greater num­
ber of entries in both agriculture and
home economics, the classes arranged
displays in the above stores. Marjorie
Dull and Virginia Cole prepares the
high school girl's wardrobe in Mr.
Greene' window.
Most of the arti­
cles included were assembled from the
home economics group, though some
items were loaned by Jos. C. Grant’s
store in Battle Creekr Likewise the
Hess Furniture store provided most
of the material for the model living­
dining room, but the dining roo.a
suite was furnished by the Lentz Ta­
ble factory, the linens by the Joe. C.
Grant store, and china by Bera's
store.
.
Maxine Cole, Marian Smith, Emily
Sackett, Mary Fuller, Joyce Jones
and Alice Sebastian arranged the
model room. The child's lunch exhib­
it in Thompson's window was prepar­
ed by Violetta Julian and Alberta
Wolff, while Jean Face, Gatha Young
and Geraldine Surine arranged the
floral exhibit in Caley’s store. Mary
VanDoren, Dorothy Young, Margaret
Sage and Margery Norton were res­
ponsible for the atnique exhibit at
Bera's.
Though there were many splendid
entries made in the Fair last year,
there were even better ones this year.
Also the number of entries increased,
and for a time the committee mem­
bers were very busy arranging the ex­
hibits. Those in charge of the work
were appointed by the H. E. club
president, Viola Baas, and were
as follows: Canned goods—Margaret
Sage, Norma Bass, Emmtt Jane
Bruce, and Emmabelle Swan; Baked
goods—Joyce Jones, Madelyn Smith
and Elma Hollister; Fancy work—
Mildred Cole, Alberta Swift, Rachel
Jeffrey and Mary Allen. No sooner
were exhibits arranged than the
judge. Miss Zeta Thomas, Home Ec­
onomics teacher at the ThornappleKellogg school at Middleville, arrived
and began her work.
The following rules were in effect,
and explain why there were second
prizes awarded when there were no
first places.
1. The judge and Fair committee
might, on mutual agreement, refuse
to award a prize if there were less
than three entries and those entries
were of poor quality.
2. No one person might be awarded
first and second prize in the same ex­
hibit, as in fruits, nor might she take
more than two first prizes in any one
division, as canned goods or baked
goods.
3. Baked goods were judged for
flavor and texture, as well as appear­
ance.
4. An exhibit of canned goods must
have included three jars or glasses of
different kinds of fruit, vegetables, or
jellies, as cherries, huckleberries, and
raspberries. Less than three cans
disqualified the exhibit. Color, size,
perfection and arrangement were
considered in judging.
5. Pupils’ work was entered in a
separate class tn baked goods and
canned goods, with prizes awarded
apart from the borne-makers' exhib­
its, though hand-work was an open
class.
Due to the fact that there were no
entries in some classes, and other
classes not previously planned for

Michigan Traffic Survey.
Detailed plans were being mapped
last week for a county-by-county
survey of Michigan's road and traffic
conditions, out of which will be pro­
jected a 10 or 20-year plan for road
development
Don Kennedy, business manager of
the state highway department and
M. D. Van Wagoner, state highway
commissioner, were holding confer­
ences with public roads bureau and
works progress administration offi­
cials at Washington on use of $905,­
000 allotted by two agencies for a
traffic survey.
Kennedy said the two agencies had
approved appointment of Fred Taylor
of Lansing as manager of the survey,
which will employ several hundred
relief people for a comprehensive sur­
vey. The fiscal study will compile
data on what money has been spent
on roads in Michigan and analyse
what should be spent in the future.

-Mr and Mrs. X Sumner Hamlin
of Eaton Rapids celebrated their 50th
wedding anniversary on Monday.
Their whole married life, with the ex­
ception of two years, has been spent
in Eaton Rapids.

Eugene B. Elliott, superintendent of
public instruction, announced this
week that one hundred copies of a
new bulletin and course of study on
the entire subject of temperance
teaching had been 'sent out for study
and criticism by special teachers and
authorities.
This bulletin has been
carefully prepared but in the event
that suggestions and criticisms which
seem valid are made, it will be revis­
ed before printing for school use. In
any event it will be available for the
schools in a comparatively short time.
This course of study is a very prac­
tical piece of work. It is filled with
actual problems and examples. It
shows the teacher how to use every
subject and class for the purpose of
Imparting knowledge on the entire
matter of the use and dangers of al­
cohol. drugs and narcotics. The ordin­
ary class room teacher has to do a
lot of planning in order’to correlate
her work and this little book will do
that for her.
There is a lot of emphasis placed in
its pages upon the problem of safety.
Statistics on both the drunk and
drinking driver are freely presented.
The entire work is well filled with
references to works where actual data
may be obtained.
,
The booklet is presented in 5 sec­
tions. The first deals with methods
of instruction and is based on actual
school room practice. The second one
shows how to correlate the matter
with other subjects.
It develops
methods of teaching temperance in
connection with English, arithmetic,
reading, composition, etc. This will
be of the greatest value to the teach­
er who has not as yet had an oppor­
tunity to master the technique of a
subject which admittedly was neg­
lected during the years of prohibition.
The third section consists of a scien­
tific presentation of the physiological
effects of alcohol and harmful drug.
The fourth is a discussion of the so­
ciological effects and the fifth pre­
sents a fine group of reliable refer­
ences for school use.
This work is in nb way costing the
state anything except the printing
and makes unnecessary the requested
appropriation for temperance educa­
tion. It will be placed In the one
spot where it can be of value, namely,
in the schools of the state.
In discussing the matter Dr. Elliott
said, "In view of the great safety
drive now being made and the agita­
tion relative to drinking and drunk
drivers, it seems that this is a most
opportune time to present this very
vital subject to the youth of the
state."

Mr. Watkins 1® treasurer of the state

However it is said that his heavy
business duties may prevent his be­
coming an active candidate. ‘
At any rate the appointment will
probably not be made until after the
appeal date has passed, which is still
aomajwo weeks away.
Hoine Rule Established.
The action of the state liquor com­
mission in following the vote in De­
troit last week and fixing the closing
hour there at two p. m., has once
more firmly established the home rule
principle in Michigan. It means that
local option will be the rule soon in
the state.
It is only logical to suppdse that
while a one o’clock clewing hour has
been set for the out-state, we will
soon see some tyep of action permit­
ting local authorities to change that
hour. There are many places where
a twelve o'clock closing would be wel­
comed and doubtless other outstate
points would prefer either a one or
two o’clock hour. The state grange
went on record as favoring a compar­
atively early hour and doubtless there
will be a gradual but sure tendency
to make this change as time passes.
At any rate the governor has suc­
ceeded in establishing the principle of
home rule, which is one for which he
is constantly waging battle.

A Paying Board.
The state board of escheats han­
dling properties passing to toe state
because of no heirs appearing, has
just turned over to the primary school
fund the sum of $250,000. There was
prior to this action about $340,000 in
available funds but a large surplus
must be kept on hand to meet the de­
mands caused by claimants appearing
for various estates, who are able to
substantiate their claims. In addition
to this amount, the board, which is
composed of the superintendent of
public instruction, the state treasurer
and the secretary of state, has about
$123,000 in various assets like im­
pounded bank credits which will ev­
entually pay out a large per cent of
their face value.
The first ten months of 1935 saw
S162;00C more saved for this fund
than in 1934. The state now has a
conservator in every county of the
state and many small amounts are
thus saved which would otherwise be
lost
Despite the fact that the principle
of escheated estates has been firmly
fixed in law for hundreds of years and
was in the constitution of Michigan in
1850, there was less than $20,000 sav­
ed for this fund prior to 1906. Since
that time the amount has steadily

A New Wayne County Clerk?
The conviction of Elmer O’Hara,
county clerk of Wayne county, has
caused a lot of gossip as to a possible
successor. There are scores of candi­
dates available, most of them self­
starters. Miles Cuiehan. until recent­
ly deputy attorney general, is one of
the most prominent mentioned. He is
a strong and capable organizer and
has never been at all backward about
entering a fight if one was in the of­
fing.
The appointment will be made by
the circuit judge? of Wayne county
and will presumably be a Republican
Inasmuch as that body is, with one
exception, of that political persuasion.
However,, they are anxious, so rumor
says, to avoid appointing anyone who
has been closely attached to any po­
litical faction. Mr. Culehan natural­
ly is considered a member of the Toy
group and as such may be under a
handicap.
Tom Farrell, for many years the
Wayne dark and who was defeated
by O'Hara to the great landslide erf
1932. is also a candidate but many
think that be has been in the picture
too tong.

The First 8 Pennies
HE TAX Collector, not the railroad,
gets the first 8 cents of each $1.00 you
pay for rail freight or fare.
AND, COULD you trace them, about
40 of the remaining 82 cents also ulti­
mately become taxes—local, state and
federal—taxes paid by those who supply
the railroad with fuel, materials and labor
and to whom the railroad pays bond in­
terest and stock dividends (if any) and
by those who supply the suppliers of the
railroad, etc., etc.
THE RAILROAD pays the highest
rate of tax of any agency of transpor­
tation. In return it asks nothing in the
form of right-of-way publicly supplied
and maintained, nor other kind of sub­
sidy. It stands on its own feet—an in­
stitution privately maintained and pri­
vately operated, yet functioning in the
public interest

T

THUS WHEN you ship and travel
by rail you ease your own tax burden by
lending support to the one form of trans­
portation that supports itself and gives
most to the support of government.

AND THE freight fee or the fare you
pay is the final payment . No “hidden
cost” looms later in your tax bill to
plague and penalize you for the so-called
saving which some subsidized transit
agency held out for your patronage.
GIVING BUSINESS to the trucks
means giving it to a tax-consumer whose
operations only add to our taxes and
living costa.

SHIP AND travel by rail and the first
8 cents of your freight or fare dollar will
always come back to you as a discount
in your tax bill.

A verdict sustaining the will drawn
by Alexander Lake, former Vermont­

at the age of 102 in February, 1934,
was rendered by a circuit court Jury
in Allegan November 6.
The will, which was made when he
was 99 years old, favored five grand­
children, and was contested by his
son Eldora Lake of Vermontville.
The trial was a retriU ordered by
the state supreme court after a simi­
lar verdict had been appealed. The
supreme court, reversing the lower
court’s decision, held Alexander Lake
was mentally competent when be
made the will, and ordered the new
trial to determine whether undue in­

Those benefitted by the will are
the children of the late Lydia Bale of

BIRTHDAY PARTY FOR
MRS. NELFIE WOLFE

The Nashville school. District No. 1
fractional,
Castleton and Maple
Grove, received state aid from a new
source last week. This new fund was
the tuition money which the state is
now paying, and which totalled
34,324.
This 34,324 came from a total dis­
bursement to Michigan . schools of
$2,128,239, of which Barry county re­
ceived a total of 324,113.
In accordance with Act 247 of the
Public Acts of 1935, L. F. Maus, the
county treasurer, disbursed this school
aid money directly to the individual
districts and not to the township
treasurers as heretofore.
This money is given to high schools
or 10-grade schools, and is not for
tuition for the present school year but.
covers the year ending June, 1934.
This new plan relieves the rural
schools of that amount of taxation.
Other schools in Barry county re­
ceiving money in this way, and
amount, are:
Thomapple Kellogg Consolidated
school, 31,516.00. Woodland Consol­
idated school, 31.341.00; Hastings city
high school 313,610.
The state is now paying a district
for all its tuition pupils, its foreign
pupils, so the more outside students a
district has, the larger will be this
fund.
In Eaton county, Co. Treas. Pad­
dock has received and distributed
354,756, as follows: Vermontville,
34,526 Eaton Rapids 313,150; Char­
lotte, 312,041; Grand Ledge, 39,076;
Bellevue, 34.335; Sunfield. 33,809; Oli­

BIRTHDAY SURPRISE
ON ARCHIE CALKINS
About forty of the relatives of Ar­
chie Calkins came Friday evening
with baskets laden with good things
to eat, to remind him that it was hi^
birthday, and that Archie could be
surprised. The company all gathered
at the home of Will Hanes, and then
went in a body to Archie’s home on
Main street As they entered, they
sang “Happy Birthday to You,’’ and
we believe it was a real happy even­
ing for him, and all the rest The ev­
ening was spent in visiting until about
10 o’clock, when a potluck supper
was served, to which all did justice.
A number of birthday presents, also
a nice little sum of money, was preented to him by the guests.
The
company departed at 11:30 wishing
him many more happy birthdays.
There were relatives present from
Battle Creek, Hastings. Lansing, Ma­
ple Grove and Nashville.

Mrs. Nellie Wolfe, who recently
moved from Reed street to just north
of the river bridge, had a birthday
Monday, and though the day was a
rainy one, a fine birthday party was
given her by the employees of Mrs.
Mr ry White's restaurant, where Mrs.
Wolfe‘is also employed. There was a
fine birthday dinner at 7 o'clock, with
a beautiful cake made by Mrs. White
for the occasion, and lots of other
goodies. The gifts were numerous,

recreation and health facilities, pay.

In two departments we noted enviaole posted records, one of 140 days,
the other of 160 days, without any ac­

the com flakes process, saw them
packaged, sealed and cased for ship­

We are planning a trip by private
cars to Grand Rapids on Wednesday
or Thursday, to visit VanDenBerg’s
furniture store, to view his model

themselves are cleared and it would
be an impossible task to clear every

selves are kept open it will be pecessary for each householder to clear his
own driveway.

Profitable Revenue.
All revenue is profitable but there
is very little coming into the state's
coffers which comes as easily and
regularly as that from the severance
tax on oil and gas. It has been stead­
ily mounting and in September the
total amount to divide between coun­
ties, townships and the state was ov­
er $31,000. Under present legislation
the state and townships each receive
forty per cent and the counties twen­
tyFor the first six months of 1935
Midland county received a total of
$45,076.58 with Greendale township
getting $5,029.41, Jasper $2,052.03 and
Porter, where the big field is located,
getting $37,829.27.
Obviously the
townships arc getting along beauti­
fully on such incomes and some of
them have more than they can spend
to advantage. Isabella county receiv­
ed a total of $6,645.65. This was dis­
tributed among six. townships with
Vernon receiving the largest share of
$3,251.52. With the new Crystal field
just getting into production during
that period Crystal township received
$3,790.10. This amount will be much
greater during the coming months.
The total income during the six
months period was $146,308.56.
Of
course to date the gas has been used
very little so that the income from
this particular source is almost negli­
gible. With the prospects good for
greatly increased consumption of na­
tural gas in the near future we may
expect this particular source of rev­
enue to produce much more fully than
has been the case in the past.

Having Masses Now
At St. Cyril Church

With quality and volume of our
new municipal weil established to the
satisfaction of all parties concerned,
our new WPA water system project
is proceeding in various ways.
One of these is the preliminary
work towards the construction of the
pump house, which sets 8 feet in the
ground and will be 14 x 17 feet, with
the well itself entirely outside to make
it easy of access in case of trouble or
need of repairs. Work on the south
side extension of mains has ceased,
awaiting arrival of pipe which the
government furnishes.
By far the most important step
taken this week was the presentation
of the voluminous governing ordin­
ance to the village council, meeting
in special session Tuesday night for
that purpose, and its adoption by that
body in its entirety. '
The ordinance, appearing in full in
this issue, authorizes the construc­
tion, improvement, extension, and op­
eration of the Water Works system,
and authorizes and provides for the
issuance of the self-liquidating rev­
enue bonds of the village for the pur­
pose of defraying the cost of the
same under the provisions of Act. No.
94 of the Public Acts of Michigan for
the year 1933, approved May 26.
1933, arid Act No. 66 of the Public
Acts of 1935, amending the aforesaid
Act, approved May 17, 1935, pres­
cribing all of the details of said bonds
and providing for the fixing, collec­
tion, segregation and disposition of
the revenues of the water system, in­
cluding appurtenances and extensions
thereto, for the purpose of paying the
cost of and operation and mantenance thereof, etc.—in other words,
provides the legal set-up for this vil­
lage improvement for which we have
federal aid. Specifications, plans and
maps of the project were prepared by
L. A. Cobb. Engineer, under the di­
rection of the State Department of
Health and in accordance with the
maps, plans and specifications ac­
companying the village’s application
for a loan and grant, filed with the
WPA.
Estimated cost of the improvement
is $11,000, approximately $5,000 to be
defrayed by the WPA, and $6,000 ap­
proximately by the village.
Issuance and sale of the $6,000 in
bunds, bearing 4 per cent interest,
payable June 1 and Dec. 1 of each
year, is provided for with 12 bonds
of $500 each, all bearing the date of
Dec. 1, 1935, and payable one each
year, 1937 to and including 1948, both
principal and Interest payable at the
bank here.
Rates for service quoted are those
now in force. The village council,
subject to the orders, rules, regula­
tion and further ordinances, will have
immediate supervision and control of
the construction, improvement, re­
pair, extension, alteration, operation,
and management of the water sys­
tem.
Much more of interest may be
gleaned by reading the ordinance.

she and her sister made the trip down

Tenn., and rode 30 miles over moun­

were going down the Cumberland Mta.
They had a very delightful trip, and
not even a fiat tire to annoy them in

memories and borne down with the
weight of Innumerable blessings.
Today is spread the Thanksgiving
table of the nation.
As a whole it
will not be so heavily or so variously
laden.
But it is not improbable that there
will be more of the real spirit of the
Thanksgiving Days of our colonial
ancestors in evidence, a deep seated
gratitude expressed in various ways,
for our blessings, as individuals, as
families, as communities, as nations,
as a world—gratitude to God, the
For our “harvest," whatever it may

This “Buy At We realize, of course,
Home" Talk. that advocating a pol­
icy ’ of "Buying At
Home” often falls on deaf ears. The
lure of distant markets has always
exerted a magic that many people
cannot resist.
But, whenever you find a good
town, a lively, progressive commun­
ity where stores are bright and at­
tractive, where fine churches and
schools are numerous, where there is
pride taken in the attractiveness of
homes and lawns, you will find that
the people of that town are mostly
“buy-at-homera." This applies as
much to the business man and his
family as it does to the day laborer;
oftentimes it is the former who is the
biggest offender against the “buy-athome" program.
The person who buys merchandise
away from home is no better than
the local employer of labor who hires
outsiders. Both are entributing their
mite toward crippling their own com­
munity, and helping some other town.

It is a tragic commentary on this

with its fundamental problems. In all
these warlike countries the basic dif­
ficulty is the same—unemployment,
stagnant business, the baffling com­
plexities of a society which has learn­

goods, but has hardly begun to learn
how to distribute them among its
people.

looking to better control of traf­
fic would be submitted to the JegiriaLure at its next session.
Proposed amendments to the pres­
ent motor laws are.
1. That a certain amount of mon­
ey received by local governments
from the state for the examination of
applicants for drivers’ licenses, be
earmarked for the establishment of
adequate facilities for examination of
these applicants, thus overcoming the
preeent routine approval which per­
mits many persons to drive cars who
are not physically qualified.
2. That police make annual ex­
aminations of the safety equipment
and general condition of every motor
vehicle registered within its jurisdic­
tion, the cost to be paid by the owner
if the car does not pass police in­
spection. The fee will be refunded in
case the car is found in good shape.
3. That police and other police of­
ficers delegated to this work be agents
of the Department of State or of the
Michigan State Police and thus be
subject to state control in the exerelse of their duties.
4. That the "uniform code" drafted by the National Conference on
Street and Highway Safety be adopt­
ed entirely by Michigan to, centralize
enforcement and regulation.
Many motorists think they can disregard summonses given them in
counties where they don’t happen to
live. Orville E. Atwood, Secretary of
State, said in emphasizing the fact
that the Uniform Traffic Act has
given the state a formidable weapon
against this class of offenders.
An increase of 17 traffic deaths in
86 large cities reporting for the four
weeks ending OcL 26, 1935, over the
corresponding four weeks of last
year, is revealed in the United States
Department of Commerce summary
of mortality from automobile acci­
dents.
Deaths within city limits totaled
781, as against 764 in the same period last year.
It is the highest re­
ported since 804 in the four weeks
ending Jan. 19, 1935. '
For the year ending Oct. 26, 1935,
Detroit reported 277 deaths due to accidents within the city, as against 287
the previous year Grand Rapids, 21.
as against 13 in 1934; and Flint, 36
as against 47.
For the four weeks’ period ending
OcL 26. Detroit reported 25 deaths,
as against 16 in the corresponding
four weeks of 1934; Grand Rapids one
death due to an accident in the city
as against 33 for the four months in
1934; and Flint six deaths as against
one for the period last year.
Five cities did not have a single fa­
tality—Evansville, Ind., Lowell, Mass.,
Lynn, Mass., and Spokane and Tampa.

In Christian Science we find that
God. divine Mind, is the only creator,
and that His creation, including man,
is spiritual and harmonious. In God’s
government—and He really governs
all in the one spiritual creation—
there is no confusion or misdirection.
His law obeyed brings out whatever
is right and good in human affairs.
What God knows and does, is eter­
nally true, and "nothing can be put
to it, nor any thing taken from it"
(Ecc. 3:14). Immortal man uninter­
ruptedly abides in this divinely con­
trolled universe and under this con­
stant spiritual law of good.
Is it not plain that our burdens
spring from the belief that we are
material and mortal? Consequently,
when we are convinced that we are
not physical, as the material senses
would have us believe, but wholly
spiritual, what happens to our bur­
dens? They melt away with the
false material belief about man, and
in the measure of our spirituality we
experience the reign of peace and
harmony. Mrs. Eddy avers, “Truth
destroys mortality, and brings to light
immortality" (Science and Health, p.
72). Falsity and mortality are allied
to each other, and Truth is the basis
of immortality. The truth about man,
about ourselves, can be gained only
from the spiritual side, fdr reality is
-forever included in spirituality.
What a joy it is to waken in the
morning unburdened; to attend to
daily affairs without care or worry;
and to fall asleep at night without
despondency! These experiences are
within reach of all of us, for Christian
Science Imparts the ability to over­
come all that would claim to interrupt
our peace and serenity. The realiza­
tion that ability, power, vision, faith
—all needed qualities—are of God, and
are always available to man, imparts
the true idea of dominion over the
earth.
Christian Sclei.ce makes it plain
that through spiritual thinking we

Michigan State college has appoint­
ed Earl Haas, a Michigan State col­
lege graduate and former 4-H club
member of Muskegon county, to as­
sist County Agricultural Agent Har­
old J. Foster with his 4-H club pro­
gram in Barry county, according to
announcement made by Mr. Foster.
Mr. Foster. as well as Michigan
State college, feels that 4-H club
work is one of the moet valuable de­
partments of our county extension
program and it should not be allowed
to fall down because of the press of
other work­
Over the past two years Mr. Foster
has been loaded down with federal
crop reduction programs and federal
loan work. This same condition ex­
ists in most southern counties of the
state. The county’4-H club program
was bound to suffer because of this
and ay the federal load does not ap­
pear to lighten in the near future,
Michigan State college felt It advis­
able to send in some, help on this
worth while project
Mr. Haas, who will be known as a
district 4-H club agent, will spend his
entire time working on 4-H club work
in the four counties of Barry, Alle­
gan. Kent and Ottawa. He will
spend every fourth week in each
county, making his first appearance
in Barry county1 the first week in De­
cember. Mr. Haas will work entirely
under the direction of County Agent
Foster to carry out the existing 4-H
club program.
His first work in this county will
be with the 4-H Handicraft and Cloth­
ing clubs. He will visit schools in
which clubs are organized to get ac­
quainted with our clubs and leaders.
During the winter and spring work
on livestock and crops clubs for 1936
will begin.
Mr. Foster is very pleased to re­
ceive the services of Mr. Haas on this
work. Mr. Haas was an outstanding
club member in Muskegon county for
several years. He is a nice appear­
ing and well mannered young man
and should work in fine with the
Barry county 4-H club program.

MEMORIES OF HOME

Pictures, such as this one, are not difficult to make so let your camera
furnish you with "Memory Insurance."

O YOU remember 'way back
D
when grandmother’s “parlor"
was furnished with the very latest
horse-hair furniture, the lovely
.*ound “center table" with its marble
top, the huge portraits with their
deep, heavy gilded frames and the
always present "what-not" with its
assorted display of "bric-a-brac?
Wouldn't you like to have a picture
of it to help recall fond memories of
days gone by?
Believe it or not but it will not be
many years until you will be trying
to picture in your mind some of the
furniture and furnishings you had
in your home when you were a child
or perhaps when you were first mar­
ried. Interior snapshots will serve as
"memory insurance."
Don't put off taking these pictures
any longer for making them is not at
all difficult; in fact you will enjoy it.
Here are a few pointers that may
help you in making your first shots.
If you take your interior pictures
in the daytime the chances are that
you will have to take a time exposure
unless your camera is equipped with
a very fast lena say /.3.5 or faster.
If a time exposure is necessary you
will have to use a tripod or else place
the camera on some solid support
such as a table. Even with an 1.3.5
lens you should have some substan­
tial support for your camera for you
will probably find it necessary to
take your shot at 1/5 or 1/10 of a
second, and at speeds slower than
1/35 of a second it is extremely dif­
ficult to hold the camera steady. Any
movement of the camera will cause
a blurred picture.
The secret of success in indoor
pictures lies in controlli-T the light
reaching the various parts of the
WEDDINGS.
J ohunwn-Atheam.
Anna Atheam. daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Orrin Atheam and granddaugh­
ter of Mrs. Susie Atheam. of near

groom as attendants. Rev. Victor
Felton of Zion Evangelical Lutheran
church officiated. They will reside in
Petoskey.

room to be pictured. To begin with,
never point your camera directly at
the window or door through which
the greatest amount of light is com­
ing. Keep the light behind or to the
side of the camera If, as sometimes
happens, a sunny window is in a i
particular part ot the house you I
want to take, you can eliminate
sun-glare by a very simple trick. Pull
the shade of that particular window
clear down and keep it down for
an exposure long enough to $ive you
the other features and details. Then,
close the shutter and run the shade
up to its normal position. Now, go
back to the camera and, without
changing the film or the camera's
position, open the shutter again for
a half second longer.
It's a good idea to use a very small
lens stop in taking indoor pictures,
because you want detail. Focus on a
point about half-way between the
camera and the far side of the room;
then, when the lens Is stopped down
you will find that practically every­
thing is in sharp focus.
Avoid Including large pieces of
furniture in the foreground, lest they
take up more space in the picture
than they deserve.
Exposure time will vary, of course,
with the brilliance of the daylight
and the degree to which the walls
reflect light On a bright day. pic­
tures in a predominantly light col­
ored room can be taken with an ex­
posure of five or ten seconds. On dull
days, in dark rooms having only one
window, you will need as much as
five minutes, with the lena at /.I6. .
"Memory Insurance" costs but'
little: so load your camera today for .
interior pictures that in later year* '
will be worth a lot

H. H. (Shump) Bennett was briefly

"NeeehviUe State Bank.'
"Hale Of Haetfnga."
Four forged village warrants ap­
peared recently at the Nashville of­
fice of the City National Bank of Bat­
tle Creek, coming in the customary
way from the clearing house, sent to
its representative bank in Nashville
for collection.
These particular warrants had been
accepted in Battle Creek and Grand
Rapids for merchandise, probably for
small purchases with the passer re­
ceiving the greater part in change,
and the merchants then deposited
them and they had gone on to the
clearing house and then to Nashville.
AU four had been drawn in favor of
"Thomas Hale of Hastings" with bal­
ance of address varying, were mostly
for "suppUes," three of them for
$19.85 each and the fourth for over
twenty dollars, and were signed with
the name of the late C. L. Glasgow
as clerk, while the name of the treas­
urer was fictitious. In the blank left
for the name of the bank had been
typed "Nashville State Bank," which
closed in 1931.
•
The orders were returned by the
channels through which they came
here to eventually reach the mer­
chants who cashed them.
Others drawn in the same way were
passed elsewhere. Kalamazoo officers
contacted Deputy Sheriff Lorbeck in
an effort to locate "Hale" on some of
the Hastings rural addresses, but to
date the forger is not known to have
been located.
Forgeries are reported from other
towns, Portland for instance, as a
nearby instance, with orders cashed
outside.
Word has gone out from the State
Banking Department to the Michigan
banks regarding this forgery scheme,
which may result in discontinuance
or in the apprehension of the party
or parties.
Instead of the regular orders used
by the vilalge, these had been printed
so as to fit any purpose, and were
doubtless secured in quantity.

Union Thanksgiving
Service Was Held
Was Heid At Evan. Church Thanks­
giving Eve, With Four dturchee
Taking Part.
The Union Thanksgiving service
was held in the Evangelical church on
Thanksgiving Eve, each of the four
churches taking part. Rev. Pritchard,
pastor of the E/angelical church, was
in charge.
The meeting opened with a fifteen
minute praise and prayer service,
which was enjoyed by everyone.
In the absence of the pastor from
the Nuzarene church, a beautiful se­
lection, "Hymns of the Old Days,”
was given by Mrs. Dora Gutchess.
Mrs. L. Maude Evans then sang a
selection, after which addresses were
given uy Rev.-Hoyt of the Methodist
church and Mabel Mae Eider, pastor
of the Baptist church. Mrs. Parrott
and Mrs. Della Bowman sang a duet.
Rev. Pritchard then pronounced the

that "every driver who is taken into

Celebration of the

versary of the print­

to ask William Randolph Hearst as
to his personal appreciation of what
the Bible means to him, and he re­
ceived this reply:
“The Bible means to me the accu­
mulation of wisdom of the ages, pre­
serving and transmitting the inspira­
tion whicr God has given in the past
to those most worthy to receive it,
and which He will give now and torover to those who come to Him pray­
erfully for help and guidance.
“It means also the definition and
establishment of moral and religious
standards which we may all strive to
achieve, and are all the better for the
striving, even if we do not entirely
attain them.
“I believe that for the Bible to have
its full didactic effect upon the minds
of men. it should retain not only the
enduring basis of its teachings, but
also the dignity and impressiveness of
its ancient and accustomed phrase­
ology.
“When a man turns to the Bible for
comfort and encouragement, for
courage and confidence, for renewed
faith in the goodness and guidance of
God, he wants the familiar passages
to speak him, in connection with the
cel that have given him help and in­
spiration before, in the words that
he learned in his youth, and which
have been with him more or less dis­
tinctly through the years.
“Those words have come to mean
and to be to him the word of God.
“When the words have been chang­
ed. whether improved or not, they no
longer seem to have the same force
and effect—the same Divine author­
ity.

Rock of Ages, indestructible and im­
mutable, both in its teaching and its
wording; so that whenever we come
to the tame source of eternal truth,
we may receive the same Divine solHearst Pleads

Uncle Sam has sent out
dunning letters to about
all the nations in the
world. You see, they owe him some
billions in debts incurred during and
following the World war.
A very
considerable part of these debts were
by reason of Uncle Sam’s willingness
to assist the European nations to re­
habilitate themselves after their fol­
ly. But while Uncle Sam sends out
his dunning letters, he has no hope
whatsoever of getting back a penny,
except from little Finland, which is

Barry and (shectbby) Eaten Co,

Eddy in "Science mix! Health with Key
merit regarding the nature of her need
unfolded to the student its Important
relationship to income or supply. Re-i
ferring to a standard dictionary, she
found this definition of “Income”:
"Gain derived, revenue;” another definltion says,. "(Rare.) Advent; . . .
specifically ,the influx of divine grace
into the soul." It was seen that income; then, in its highest sense, is
not a matter for one to decide for an­
other, or to determine, -or intercept,
but is rather a divine importation, a
condition superbly beyond and above
the reach of the carnal mind. This
“influx of divine grace into the soul"
is a spiritual endowment tn no way
dependent upon another’s co-operative
or competitive activity.
Thereupon
the student recognized most happily
that her need was emphatically to
grow in grace.
Fear and anxiety departed as she
beheld the requirement to be that of
greater reliance upon the divine
Mind, God, for foundational and last­
ing success. This is the method re­
vealed throughout the inspired pages
of the Christian Science textbook.

Intercept the progress, or spiritual
activity, of one whose determination
is to go forward in obedience to God’s
demand? Spiritually enlightened in­
telligence bids one acknowledge no
law, power, or volition apart from the
one Mind. God, upon whom man is de­
pendent—eternally so.
One reads in the first chapter of
Genesis, “And God said. Let there be
light: and there was light” (Genesis
1:3). Light, grace, spiritual discern­
ment which are constituents essential
to heaven within, call forth evidences
of divine supply in human experience.
When all about one birds are singing,
and the sun is shining; when count­
less experiences of those about one
give tangible proof of infinite good­
ness, or God's presence, is it not only
because gloomy thoughts have invaded
one's thinking that lack or depriva­
tion appears so real and apparent ’
When good seems absent from our
own experience, but present else­
where, we should search our individ­
ual consciousness. Or when, to de­
luded human sense, supply is believ­
ed to be something other than one’s
own reflection of grace, spiritual re­
sources, and dominion, we need to
realize that supply is spiritual, ever
present, and that man is never separ­
ated from supply.
“Neither death, nor life. ... nor
things present, nor things to come,
nor height, nor depth, nor any other
creature, shall be able to separate us
from the love of God" (Romans
8.38-39). How secure, then, is orfc’s
’immediate connection and relation­
ship to things essential! How unna­
tural that one should ever feel him­
self to be separated from the divine
grace, or fall to outshine the symp­
toms of error as they loom before his
mental horizon!
If human resources seem to be re­
moved from one’s plan of action and
experience, this is but an incentive to

while true supply is a direct evidence
of the Father, God, bestowing all
good upon His beloved child. God ha«
not changed, neither has provision re­
moved itself. Nor has man’s relation
to God been rendered less inviolable. '
Gratefully we behold Income to be
spiritual. It is eternally enduring,
since it is the inflowing of divine Love
to man. If. therefore, the love of God
be in us, then wherever we are, the
abundance of God, good, is with us,
even unto the uttermost parts of the
earth.—Christian Science Monitor.

tinued because of war conditions.
Twenty years ago, the whole world
was in a turmoil. War ravaged all
Europe, and the fall of Paris was
being freely predicted. But in that
same city of Paris another series of
events was being enacted which was
to have profound effect upon the
world's future.

Searching Space for Words

What made this eventful experi­
ment possible was the fact that Bell
System engineers in New York had
developed what proved to be the
first vacuum tube radio telephone
system. Through the co-operation of
the U. S. Navy Department, the use
of the large radio antenna at Arling­
ton, Va., had been obtained for the
experiment, and the radio tele­
phone transmitting apparatus, in­
cluding hundreds of newly devel­
oped power tubes, had been In­
stalled.
Night after night, beginning on
June 17, 1915, the American tele­
phone engineers on both sides of
the Atlantic were on duty. The task
of those at Arlington was to oper­
ate the transmitter which hurled
their words into space; that of the
men in Paris was to search space,
with their highly amplifying re­
ceiver, for those words.
It was a difficult business at best.

The Final Success

In September the teats were re­
sumed, but were limited to ten
minutes shortly after midnight En­
tirely undaunted, the engineers con­
tinued their listening and finally in
October, just at the time when it
began to appear that the experi­
ments would have to be terminated
because of the war activities, a sig­
nal from the Arlington station was
received in Parle and fragments of
words were heard, counting “one,
two, three, four, five," . . . “Hello.”
This , occurred on October 9.
On October 11, other fragments of
speech were recognised, and finally
on Thursday, October 21.1915, came
the unmistakable reception of a
phrase of connected speech, includ­
ing “Good-bye, Shreeve.” This was
repeated several times, and on Oc­
tober 23, the following triumphant
entry was noted in the engineers'
notebook: "At 6:37 heard the

phrase 'Hello, Shreeve! How is the
weather this morning?'"
Thus speech leaped the Atlantic
and thus was history made.
That was twenty years ago, and
so great baa been the advance In
telephony in two short decades that
today a Bell System subscriber can
reach sixty dlffierent countries and
places in all parts of the world and
about 93 per cent of the world's tele­
phones.
Radio Telephony Extended

This advance in telephony did not
ill occur immediately, however.
Much pioneering remained to be
done, and it was not until 1927, on
January 7, that commercial radio
telephone service was Inaugurated
between the United States and Eu­
rope. On that date the service was
opened to London. In the eight years
since then, overseas telephony has
been extended to every continent of
the globe.
These extensions came gradually,
first in England, until finally all of
Great Britain was included. Next,
in 1928, service was opened through
London to various points in Bel­
gium, Holland, Germany, Sweden,
France, Denmark. Norway, Switzer­
land, Spain. Austria. Hungary and
Czechoslovakia. Extension to an­
other continent came in November
of 1928, when the overseas telephone
reached Ceuta, In Spanish Morocco,
Africa. Still further advances were
made, one of the most significant
being, in 1930, to the principal cities
in Argentine and Chile and to Monte­
video, Uruguay, in South America.
A Call Around the World
The 1931 extensions included Java,
Sumatra, Bermuda. Hawaii, and
the Canary Islands; in 1933, the
transoceanic service was extended
to the Philippines, the Canal Zone,
ami countries in Central America.
Japan was added to the transoceanic
circuit in 1934.
The most recent event of great
significance in the conquering of the
world by the human voice came In
1935, when an experimental call,
originating in Now York, circled the
globe and was received again In New

of the printing of the Bible as trans­
lated by Myles Coverdale in 1535.
The translation was completed on
October 4, 1535, and dedicated to the
English king and queen. In spite of
the fact that Wycliffe had made his
translation in 1389, the Bible in its
translation was still a forbidden book
for the common man. Together Tyn­
dale and Wycliffe supposedly labored
until Tyndale's martyrdom In 1536.
It is said that popular education
has sprung from the translation of
the Scriptures Into the vernacular and
that western democracy had its origin
in the fact that the Scriptures were
placed in the hands of the common
people. A knowledge of the Bible
gave to the common people a con­
sciousness of their own worth and in
this way became a factor in doing
away with serfdom. The knowledge
of personal immortality gained thru

To Pray."
ly good, helpful, and im­
portant in one's exper­
ience begins with prayer and con­
tinues in thanksgiving: so it was na­
tural that Mary Baker Eddy’s loving
life was one long prayer. Her text­
book of Christian Science, “Science
and Health with Key to toe Scrip­
tures,” begins with a chapter entitled
“Prayer,” and closes with one called
“Fruitage,” on every page of which
the reader finds word of thanksgiving
for answered prayer.
Why should we pray, how should
we pray, what should we pray for,
when and where should we pray?
These questions arise in many a per­
plexed heart; and they are answered
in that wonderful first chapter of this
textbook, which has brought so much
healing to the world.
This book
teaches that we should pray in secret
and in silence, and that the result of
true prayer is openly shown in our
lives. The seed is hidden in the earth,
but we know that It is silently grow­
ing and that later the bright green
leaves will appear. So it is with
prayer. Our real prayers are an­
swered as we grow, as we put forth
tiie constant effort to rise to the alti­
tude of our prayer. It is not merely
saying prayers but the prayerful spir­
it that counts.
We may say them
day after day, night after night, but
unless we abide by them in practice
they are useless repetitions.

against the Spirit he wrestled in
prayer all the long night, and the
spirit of Jesus’ prayer, "Let not the
flesh, but the Spirit, be represented
in me," must have arisen in Jacob's
heart also; for he persevered until the
darkness of sensuality and fear was
lifted, and the angel blessed him
there with spiritual understanding
and victory.
How often do we too have such a
struggle! Some hitherto unrecognized
error is aroused by our meeting with
the angels of God, the exalted stan­
dard, and a strugggle with error en­
sues. Many and many a night this
prayer is on our lips, as fear and dis­
couragement try to keep us from
boldly taking a firm stand for Truth.
Pride may rebel, fear threaten, sel­
fishness and love of ease put forward
excuses, but if we are faithful we
shall gain the victory which is the
answer to our prayer. An angel will
be found strengthening us for what­
ever ordeal lies before us, and the
consciousness of the divine presence
will certainly overcome the tempta­
tion of the flesh.
We should not be impatient when
divine Love teaches us to pray. The
opportunities which present them­
selves will provide the necessary
means of proving the certain efficacy
of true prayer.
There is never a
problem without its solution, nor a
condition, however difficult, where di­
vine Love Is not present with a coun­
terbalancing blessing. Prayer opens
our eyes to behold and receive. So,
from our hearts we can say (Luke
11:1). "Lord, teach us to pray.”—

Few people realize the extent to
which the state of Michigan is in the
business of publishing books. In the
execution of his duties as provided by
law, Orville E. Atwood. Secretary of
State, is the capital's chief publisher
of books, pamphlets and other public
records.
Publication of the “Michigan Man­
ual" and the Public Acts of each ses­
sion of the legislature is a matter of
routine for the Department of State,
and has been for years. Because of
this, the immensity of the projects of­
ten escapes notice.
Interesting figures are drawn from
the most recent publication of the
State Department—the 1935 "Mich­
igan Manual," the bound red book
which has been a familiar symbol of
state records for many years.
There were 15,000 copies of the
Manual printed, to be sold to the pub­
lic at cost, of &gt;1.50 a volume.
Sev­
eral thousand of the books are dis­
tributed tc public officials without
cost; the total cost to the state is
about &gt;23.000 for the printing, bind­
ing and engraving. The entire con­
signment, weighing approximately
2 1-2 pounds per volume, would tip
the beams at 11 1-4 tons.
Mostfiof
.them are shipped out of Lansing and
at state expense, too.
With each book being 1 3-4 inches
thick, they would form a pile of
2,187 feet, or almost half a mile, if
the 15,000 books were slacked one on
top of another. The pages, measur
ing 9 by 6 inches, with some 850 to a
volume, have a total area of 4,781,-.
2!&lt;6 square feet or almost 110 acres.
Nor is the Manual the largest pub­
lishing project the State Department
tackles. Every 10 years the laws o’
the state are compiled. The last
compilation was published in 1929.
Each set is of four volumes, each one
of which is twice the size of any

OPERATORSONCERELAYEDTOLLTELEPHONECALLS a
Voic! Wouldn’t Carry 100 Ailes
Ly V/ire in the Early Days
in the Panlandle State
In the *Gay Nineties*’ there was
not much long distance telephoning.
It was not until 1892 that New York
and Chicago were connected by tele­
phone; and not until three years
later that New York first spoke to
St. Louis, and St Louis to Chicago,
by wire.
In. many states, long distance
talking was confined to state limits;
as, for example, Texas. In Texas the
toll lines in the early 90’s measured
only 1,230 miles: little more than
it would take to string a circuit in a
straight line from one corner of the
state to another.
Better Service, Greater Use.

Today, this circuit mileage of
1,230 has increased to 170,000, and
another 40,000 miles are ready for
use in intercity toll cables Jrf Texas.
Part of the increased toll usage
since 1890 is due to the increase in
population, bnt a large part has
been due to development and re­
search work on the part of Bell Sys­
tem engineers, and to increased
usage per capita because of the
consequent great improvement to
service.
In 1890, Texas had only about
4,600 telephones, as compared with
a total of about 680,000 today. The
Texas toll lines of 1890 ran only be­
tween points witbin the state and

there were no connections with ex­
change* beyond the Texas'borders.
Connections Were "Built Up**

Not only was the circuit mileage
small, but in comparison-with pres­
ent-day standards it was difficult to
put calls through. If one wanted to
talk from Dallas to Waco, a distance
of approximately 100 miles, the Dal­
las operator had to get the operator* '
at Lancaster, Waxahachie and Hills­
boro in turn to rout? the circnlt
through their offices before Waco
could be reached. When Waco final­
ly was on the line, the Dallas party
could not talk to Waco even then
because the distance was too great
What usually happened in such
a case was that the Waxahachie
operator, near the middle of the' dr­
cult stayed on the line and relayed
the conversation in both directions.
That is quite in contrast with condi­
tions today, when the human,voice,
by means of telephone wires and
overseas radio telephone circuits,
has actually gone areund the world,
clearly and without difficulty.

He was hurried to the office of Dr.

The doctor gave him emergency
treatment, and Mr. Miller was taken
home and put to bed, where be re­
mained Tuesday. On Wednesday he
was determined to get back on the
job but every effort was being made
to have him remain at home longer.
It was a narrow escape. The deadly
gas seeped up into the cab through
the floor boards and nearly caused his
death.

All is calm, all Is bright
Round yon virgin mother and Child,
Holy Infant, so tender and mild,

Sleep in heavenly peace.

It came upon the midnight clear,
That glorious song of old,
From angels bending near the earth
To touch their harps of gold;
"Peace on the earth, good-will to men,
From heaven’s all-gracious King;"
The world in solemn stillness lay,
To hear the angels sing.

O little town of Bethlehem,
How still we see thee lie;
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by ;
Yet in thy dark streets shineth

“I DRIVE SAFELY” PLAN
FOR LICENSE APPLICANTS

Safe-driving pledges and windshield
stickers of the State Safety Council,
bearing the words "I Drive Safely,"
are to be made available at all
branches of the State Department.
When an applicant buys his 1936
plates he will be asked to help in
Michigan’s year-round safety drive
by putting his name to a pledge and
by committing himself thus over bis
own signature to a program of intel­
ligent operation.
•
If he does not wish to sign such a
pledge but win agree verbally to use
care on the roads, a windshield stick­
er will be furnished him along with
his number plates.
The State Department of Public
Instruction is to distribute pledges
and stickers in a Lansing high school,
with the thought of extending distri­
bution to high school students thruout the state if interest at Lansing
proves the merit of the plan.
Every automobile and truck in state
service will don stickers next week
and Public Works Commissioner L. G.
Lenhardt of Detroit has asked for a
supply of the gummed pledges for all
city-owned cars.
Flint expects to distribute 35,000
pledges and stickers through its
schools. Teachers will give safe­
driving pledges to each pupil to take
home to parents. When signed, the
pledge will be returned to the teach­
er, who then will turn over the wind­
shield seal to the pupil to take home
to the family.
A million state stickers will be on;
cars by January 15, it is estimated.

Historic Round-the-World Telephone

Has Been Given to National Museum

Dr. Charles G. Abbot, secretary of the Smithsonian Institution in Wash­
ington, D. C., signs a formal receipt for the telephone over which President
Walter S. Gifford of the American Telephone and Telegraph C^mpa^y
talked around the world on April 25, H35, and which has been presented
to the Washington museum. Among the Interested observers Is Mrs. Elsie
Ball Grosvenor, daughter of Alexander Graham Bell, Inventor of tho
telephone.

Immediately after the around-uieworld telephone conversation be­
tween President Walter S. Gifford,
of the American Telephone and Tele­
graph Company, and Theodore G.
Miller, Vice President in charge of
that company’s Long Lines Depart­
ment, which took place on April 26,
1935, the Smithsonian Institution
asked Mr. Gifford to give the tele­
phone instrument he used on this
occasion to the U. 8. National Mu­
seum in Washington. Mr. Gifford
consented, and the presentation took
place on May 16.
Very appropriately, Mrs. Elsie

Alexander Graham Bell, inventor of
the telephone, and Dr. Gilbert Gros­

8EBEWA BAPTIST BYPW
SURPRISE THEIR PASTOR
A pleasant evening was enjoyed at
the Baptist parsonage, when twentyone young men and women, members
of the Sebewa Baptist B. Y. P. W.,
held their mothly business meeting
with their pastor, Mabel Mae Elder.
After the devotional* and business
meeting, the evening was spent in
songs and games.
In the middle of a guessing game,
while the pastor was out of the room,
a Christmas tree, with many beautiful
gifts for the pastor, was placed in the
middle of the living room, to greet
her as she entered the room.
A number of the Baptist friends
from the Nashville Baptist church
were guests of the Sebewa B. Y. P. W.

Dr. Philip A. Callahan, director of
the state old age assistance bureau,
said he will leave for Washington
within a week to make formal appli­
cation that the federal government
match the funds Michigan has made
available for old age pensions. Cal­
lahan said he already has assurance
that the Michigan pension system is
acceptable to the government From
(8 to (11 a month now is paid as a
pension by the state to aged persons
who have no means of their own. Cal­
lahan said these payments will be
doubled if the federal government
.matches the state fund.
A (30 a
month pension would be the maxi- j
mum.

statement last Friday of D. E. Kam
of Jackson, general marker of the

On the preceding Wednesday, State
Public Utilities Commissioner Emer­
son R.. Boyles "had said that the ru­
ral electrification campaign that gets
under way in Michigan January 1
would provide a great cash tonic to
traders and industries throughout the
state, estimating that the first 12
months alone in this campaign would
see the expenditure of between $8,­
000,000 and $9,000,000 in Michigan
for such things as wiring rural
homes, installing electrical applianc­
es, in addition to the cost to the utili­
ties owners of extending their lines to
farms.
Mr. Boyles is chairman of the
Michigan Rural Electrification com­
mittee and has been active in bring­
ing about the program of extending
power lines into farm areas where
there is an average of five customers
to the' mile of line who will guarantee
that their combined bill for electrical
consumption will be not less than
$150 per year.
He said 10.000 homes will be added
the first year to the thousands that
now are lighted electrically, opening
a vast market for appliances, estimat­
ing that it will cost more than $2.­
000,000 to install electrical wiring in
these residences and that the new
users will spend upward of $3,000,000
for appliance installation. The lum­
bering and metals industry will also
feel the effects and new jobs will be

tion with its annual meeting, held

o'clock potluck, cafeteria style, with
the ladies seated at two tables. Later
Santa Claus distributed the exchange
gifts which had been laid around a
table size Christmas tree. These of
course had to be opened. There was
also a candy hunt that called for
"sweet" activity. In the election of

dent, Mrs. Flook vice president, and
Mrs. Susie Kraft secretary-treasur­
er. About 25 were present, and all

the pastor.

On Friday evening the Welcome
Philathea class of the M. E. Sunday
school had an enjoyable session in the
class room at Community House. The
program and games were partially of
a Christmas nature, and each brought
a small gift to . place under the
Christmas tree, and then later, with
closed eyes, touched a gift which be­
came hers.
Mrs. L. Maude Evans
conducted the Christmas devotional
service, and there was singing, "Star

Despite the extreme cold weather
of Friday night, a very good attend­
ance greeted Joseph Warnock, Town­
send plan speaker, of Galesburg, on
appearance here for the regular
meeting of the Nashville Townsend
Plan club No. 1, organized December
13 at the M. E. church by Ernest
Moore of Kalamazoo.
The appear­
ance of Mr. Warnock was on the first
regular meeting of the new club held
on Friday night in the auditorium of
the M. E. church, and those in at­
tendance said he gave a very convinc­
ing and scientific address as to the
hows, whys and ways of financing
the plan, and answered questions also.
The club, which started with 67
members, announced the addition of
18 more members.
Fred Elder is
president, L. G. Cole vice president.
Rev. M. *E. Hoyt is secretary, and
Fred White is treasurer. Mr. Elder
said Tuesday the membership had
been Increased to 90.
The Townsendites are endeavoring
to spread their organization to the
saturizing point over the country
and are focussing attention on the
election of congressmen who will be
favorable to their legislation. The
election of Verner Main. Battle Creek,
to fill the unexpired term of Congress­
man Kimball, deceased, in the third
congressional district last week, was
looked upon as a victory as the
Townsend club members of that dis­
trict were supposed to have thrown
their whole strength to the election of
Main, in addition to the personal a?»pearance of Dr. Townsend and his co­
founder, Earl Clement, in the district
previous to the election. Ear! Michener of Adrian, veteran congressman,
favors the McGroaty bill in its pres­
ent form and which bill, it is said,
embodies the Townsend Old Age Pen­
sion plan.
The next meeting of the local
Townsend club occurs on the first Fri­
day night in January and it is expect­
ed that there will be a speaker pres­
ent at that time.
Dr. Townsend, leader of the move­
ment to provide $200 a month pen­
sions to persons of 60 and beyond, has
announced
that his organization
would file third party petitions in all
48 states to insure a nation-wide vote
on the plan in 1936. They said it did
not necessarily imply that in all
.states it would be necessary to exer­
cise the third party prerogative. It
was the hope that one or the other of
the old parties would change to the
espousal of the Townsend plan, and
make unnecessary any third party
movement

Adjustment committee to assist in

Newell, Regional Director of the Re­
settlement Administration,. at Madi­
son, Wisconsin, last week.
The above members of the Barry
county Farm Debt Adjustment com­
mittee have agreed to offer their ser­
vices wihout cost to worthy farmers
who have debt problems.
In general, the debt problems of
farmers are of two kinds: first, those
where the debt load is not excessive
but must be refinanced; second,
where the debt load spells insolvency
and loss of the farmer’s chance to
make an independent living for him­
self and his family.
The Resettlement Administration
can not itself refinance farmer’s real
estate indebtedness but where the
debt load is not excessive, it will help
the farmer to secure refinancing thru
other independent agencies. Farmers
facing insolvency will find the county
Farm Debt Adjustment committee
willing to act as a voluntary media­
tion board, attempting an impartial
adjustment of his indebtedness to an
amount which he can carry and which
will be fair to the creditor.
Where a farmer makes written ap­
plication for their services the local
Debt Adjustment committee will stu­
dy his financial situation, suggest
what should be done and assist him
in solving his debt problem.
Blank forms for making application
for this service may be obtained at
the office of the County Agent, the
Rural Resettlement supervisor, or
from any of the above named mem­
bers of the Barry county Farm Debt
Adjustment committee.

Equipment Ordered Of
Fairbanks Morse Co.
Two Unite Will Be Shipped Jan. 10.
Phil Dahlhouser Purchases The
Village Bonds.

The holiday season finds our im­
proved water supply for the village
nearer to realization in several ways.
In the first place the very important
matter of ordering the equipment,
pumps and pumping equipment, men­
tioned last week as placed in the
hands of a committee of three by the
village council, to accept and sign or
to reject upon thoroughly examining
the contract presented by the Fair­
banks Morse Oo., has been completed.
As forecast in last week’s News,
the equipment was ordered, but not
until Thursday, and includes the 40
horse-power Diesel engine and an
Auxiliary engine, a 36 horse-power
gasoline engine, and two centrifugal
pumps with a capacity of 500 gal­
lons each per minute. The work on
the mains extension has been pro­
gressing nicely, and Tuesday the
mains were being connected up with
prospects that brick-laying on the
pump house would begin the day af­
ter Christmas, today.
The two unit equipment of engines
and pumps will be shipped by the
Fairbanks, Morse Co. on January 10.
The weather doesn’t look very prom­
ising for the work on the standpipe,
either on the interior or exterior, so
perhaps it will he spring before the
project is completed. Total cost of
the village-WPA project will be about
&gt;11,000, of which 45 per cent is a
federal grant Bonds floated by the
village for $6000 to cover the village’s
self-liquidating share of the cost were
purchased in entirety by Philip Dahl­
houser, well known Nashville resident.
BARRY COUNTY TRAFFIC
SURVEY UNDER WAY
The state’s traffic survey was in
progress in Barry county last week,
as approximately 2,000 miles of high­
ways were being catalogued as to
bridges, dangerous curves, railroad
crossings and other hazards.

The Woman’s Literary club met at
Putnam Library Wednesday for their
Christmas program. Mrs. Elsie Furnlss, vice president, had charge of
the business meeting, and Mrs. Geo.
Williams acted as hostess. A beauti­
fully lighted tree made us realize it

"When old smiles are a trifle brighter,
And old spirits a trifle lighter.
And old handshakes a trifle tighter.
It’s Christmas!"
All responded to roll call with their
favorite woman of the Bible.
"The Romance of Hymns,” by Mrs.
Clair Fumlss. who gave a very inter­
esting paper on America's most fam­
ous hymns. A few years ago the
Etude, the little magazine that musi­
cians all love. ■ sponsored a nation­
wide census to find out America's
favorite hymns, pnd the hymn to re­
ceive the most votes was “Abide .With
Me,” written by Henry Francis Lyte,
an obscure Devonshire parson who
was slowly dying from that dread dis­
ease, tuberculosis, and while sitting
on the beach one evening watching
the ebb and flow of the tide, he had
the inspiraion for this song.
“Nearer My God, to Thee” was
second tn order, written by Mrs. Sar­
ah Flower Adams, a very noble and
godly woman.
This was Pres. Mc­
Kinley’s favorite hymn, and as the
great steamship Titanic was sinking
in the Atlantic Ocean in 1912, the
band played softly this hymn.
The third hymn was “Lead, Kindly
Light" Fourth, “Rock of Ages." by
Augustus M. Toplady. Fifth, “Jesus,
Lover of My Soul.”
She concluded
by telling of a Christmas carol, “(Mi,
Little Town of Bethlehem.”
An instrumental solo, "Christmas
Fantasia,” was played by Mrs. John
Purehis.
In a Christmas pageant portraying
the fulfillment of Simeon’s desire to
see the Messiah, the various roles
were taken as follows: Simeon, Mrs.
Elsie Fumiss; Mary. Mrs. Stewart
Lofdahl; Angel, Mrs. Ralph Hess;
Joseph, Mrs. Wm. Gibson; Shepherds,
Mrs. Phil Dahlhouser, Mrs. Dennis
Yarger and Mrs. C. O. Mason. Pag­
eant committee—Mrs. Jesse Garlinger,
Mrs. Fred Elder and Mrs. Milo Young.
Mrs. Herman Maurer sang "Holy
Night” in German.
Mrs. Pauline Lykins played and
sang "Come Thou Almighty King,”
“It Came Upon the Midnight dear.”
“O, Little Town of Bethlehem,” "Sil­
ent Night, Holy Night” and "Oh
Come, All Ye Faithful,” the club
members joining in the songs. Miss
Berry sang a solo, accompanied by
Miss French.
The music chairman
for the program was Mrs. Elwin
Nash.
Lovely refreshments were served
by the committee.

“Why should not the emergency of­
ficers who were disabled in line of
duty in the World war be given the
same treatment as to retirement with
pay that is accorded to officers of the
regular army?" This is a question
being asked by many persons who
have noted the unjust discrimination.
Officers of the regular army were,
in most instances, educated at gov­
ernment expense at West Point and
graduated into permanent jobs at liv­
ing wages tn the army. When the
World war occurred these officers did
not have to abandon their life work,
but, Instead, they received post-grad­
uate training with increased rank and
with no hazards greater than encoun­
tered by emergency officers. The reg­
ular had assurance before the war
began that if disabled in Hue of duty
he would be retired on a subsistence.
allowance.
The emergency officer, on the other
hand, secured his education, basic and
tonal, at his own expense. If
any military training, as was
the case with officers of the National
Guard and Organized Reserves, this
had been acquired at a sacrifice of
his own time and money. When he
entered the war he abandoned his
business or employment on very short
notice with full knowledge that if he
got back alive and sound he still
would have a struggle to rehabilitate
himself because of the readjustments
that would inevitably occur while be
way away. Returning, at the close of
the war, disabled, the task was made
doubly hard.

Oil-Aggregate Program
Farm-To-Market Roads

WITH THE PURCHASE OF

Highway Dept And PWA To Prepare
224 Miles In 40 Project* For Oil­
Aggregate.

Murray D. Van Wagoner, state
highway commissioner,
announced
that Michigan's farm-to-market, oil
aggregate program will continue
throughout the winter season.
Under his cooperative program
with the WPA. $1,395,945 has been
allocated for the preparing of 224,
miles of gravel trunklines for oil ag­
gregate surfacing.
Forty projects
scattered throughout the state are on
this program.
Treatment of the gravel base with
the surfacing of oil aggregate cannot
get under way until next spring,
Commissioner Van Wagoner said. In
the meantime workers are preparing
the road for this surfacing.
The winter work consists of grad­
ing, widening of the present road bed.
trenching, and increasing the thick­
ness of the gravel surface. In addi­
tion, the gravel to be used in the oil
aggregate mix will be produced by
the workers during the present sea­
son.
A second allocation of funds to per­
mit the state highway department to
surface these gravel roads with oil
aggregate is anticipated sometime af­
ter rfext March. At that time the de­
partment will set up its asphalt
plants in various parts of the state to
produce its oil aggregate mix.
Louis Nims, director of the pro­
jects division of the WPA for Mich­
igan, estimates the forty projects will
provide employment for approximate­
ly 3,000 men at the peak.
The oil aggregate surfaces will be I
constructed under state highway de- |
partment specifications with the de­
partment furnishing engineering and
technical supervision over the pro­
jects. These surfaces appear to be
Michigan's answer to a permanent so­
lution of the dust problem. They can
be constructed at about one-fourth
the cost of concrete pavement, are
much cheaper to maintain than grav­
el, and furnish a durable surface.

TAME DEER ATTACK AND
KILL AND INJURE KEEPERS

CHEESE

Be careful with “tame” deer, warns
the Department of Conservation.
During the current month one man
has been killed in Michigan and an­
other severely injured by so-called
“tame” captive deer.
Wildlife students have called at­
tention a number of times to the fact
that buck deer may be dangerous dur­
ing the fall months of the year. Re­
cent accidents Ln Michigan have sus­
tained this contention. An attendant
at a park in Newberry was killed and
a keeper in Ontonagon was seriously
injured by buck deer. Both were at­
tempting to feed th animals when at­
tacked.
The rutting season, which comes in
the fan, apparently causes the bucks
to become irritable and belligerent j
and they may attack without provo- j
cation.

Good Product.

Egg grading regulations which
will assure quality products to the
consuming public will go into effect
tn Michigan January 1, Commission­
er of Agriculture, James F. Thomson,
announced at Lansing Saturday.
The regulations call for four grades
of. eggs. Fancy, and Grades A, B and
C.
The regulations are similar to
those issued some time ago but later
rescinded, except that the license fee
feature has been eliminated under the
new plan. Permits to deal in eggs
will be issued free of charge by the
department of agriculture.
“Michigan is the 41st state in the
Union to adopt egg grading regula­
tions," Thomson declared. “It is an
advanced step and will tend to stop
tho traffic in Inedible eggs. Grades
are set up strictly on a quality basis.
The sale of eggs by weight is not re­
quired under the new regulations, but
is advocated to a certain extent"
At the same time Commissioner
Thomson has issued additional egg
grading regulations under which eggs
can be sold under the Michigan bond­
ed farm produce plan. Only the two
highest grades can qualify for sale
under this program, which was set up
some time ago by the department of
agriculture. The bonded program ap­
plies to Michigan eggs only, and will
carry a bonded label supplied by the
department of agriculture, which as­
sures the consuming public that the
eggs are of two grades. Under the
bonded plan fancy grade eggs must
be of uniform size and the weight not
less than 22 ounces to a dozen.
With surrounding states having egg
grading regulations Michigan has be­
come a dumping ground for all eggs
that have failed to meet the require­
ments in these states, the commis­
sioner pointed out The nqjv regula­
tions in Michigan will prevent this
practice, Thomson says.
The com­
missioner pointed out that strict en­
forcement of the potato grading law
in Michigan has resulted in premium
prices being paid for Michigan grown
potatoes on the Chicago market this
year. The same will apply to eggs.

Eaton Sheep Stealers
Caught Up With
Confewaed To Theft Of About 100
Sheep Valued At Approximately
$1,000.

Five young men of Eaton Rapids,
Harold Fields, Howard Follett, Char­
les Barnett, Ralph Pete Baumer and
Reginald Johnson, confessed to the
Eaton county sheriff to the theft of
upwards of 100 sheep from six farms
within a radius of six miles of that
city, and two farms in Ingham coun­
ty, with appnpdmate value of $1,000.
The thefts started October 1, and
some farms were visited three times.
Other sheep in the county have been
stolen, possibly by the same parties.
A few head of sheep stolen recently
in Barry county were identified, it is
said, by their owners after being trac­
ed to a stockyard in Kalamazoo.
Ionia farmers have reported the
loss of 75 sheep, and officers at last
reports were checking selling outlets.

—George Dye, receiver of the Hast­
ings National bank, announced the
payment of a 20 per cent dividend au­
thorized by the comptroller of cur­
rency, to be made on Friday, Dec. 20.
The dividend payment amounted to
over $133,000. This is the second div­
idend paid since the bank went into
receivership and reorganized, making
a total of over 80 per cent paid to the
depositors.

evening service.
A loving invitation is extended to
all to attend church services and
make use of the reading room.
"Christian Science" is the subject
of the Lesson-Sermon in all Christian
Science churches
throughout the
world on Sunday. December 29.
Among the Bible citations is this
passage (Pa 19:7-8): "The law of the
Lord is perfect, converting the soul,
the testimony of the Lord is sure,
making wise the simple. The statutes
of the Lord are right, rejoicing the
heart: the commandment of the Lord
is pure, enlightening the eyes."
Correlative passages to be read
from the Christian Science textbook,
"Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, in­
clude the following (p. 342): "If
Christianity is not scientific, and Sci­
ence is not of God, then there is no
invariable law, and truth becomes an
accident Shall it be denied that a
system which works according to the
Scriptures has Scriptural authority?"

The annual report of David'H.
Crowley, Attorney General of Mich­
igan. has just been released. It is a
moat revealing document, showing the
activities of one of the most import­
ant of the many state departments.
Mr. Crowley assumed office on Octo­
ber 24, succeeding Harry S. Toy. who
became justice of the Supreme court
on that date, succeeding Justice Nel­
son Sharpe, deceased.
One of the high points in the year's
activities may be found in the case of
Elliott versus P. H. Voelker in which
the position of the department was
upheld, and Dr. Elliott was sustained
in his claim to the office of Superin­
tendent of Public Instruction.
Some of the activities of the de­
partment have saved the state of
Michigan larg sums of money. For
example, the store tax was upheld by
the State Supreme court, and to avoid
an appeal to the United States Sup­
reme court one of the litigants elect­
ed to settle for over one million dol-

In the matter of the so-called wider
Woodward project many claims re­
sulted from the relocation of the
Granjc Trunk Western Railroad com­
pany. The property involved Is valued
at approximately eighteen million
dollars with five thousand separate
parcels of land subject to litigation to
determine damages to be assessed by
the appointed commissioners.
The
testimony in this case covers 38,000
typewritten pages.
It is estimated
that the departinent was successful
in reducing one set of claims from
$750,000.00 to $269,000.00.
While
another set of another group of $1,­
800,000.00 will be reduced to approxi­
mately $425,000.00 by the action of
the commissioners.

THIS PAPER

Making A Financial Study.
State Highway Commission Murray
D. Van Wagoner is beginning a fiiscal
study of Michigan highway planning.
This study has been begun with the
intent to make determination of the
actual financial needs of the highways
in Michigan. This study, it is hoped,
will, when taken together with the
traffic surveys and oher intensive de­
terminations of highway problems
make it possible to lay out accurate
planning for the entire state.
The
movement, which is financed by fed­
eral funds, is probably the most im­
portant step ever taken toward the
framing of a real fiscal program for
Michigan transportation.
When completed, it should present
to the discerning eye a picture of all
that Michigan needs during the com­
ing decade.

Still Cutting Timber.
Under the laws of Michigan it is il­
legal to cut timber on any land upon
which taxes are delinquent. Under the
terms of the Tax Moratorium Act it
wax specifically provided that those
availing themselves of its provisions
should not cut any growing timber
without the permission in writing of
the auditor general and the county

Speed, beauty and talent are the
key notes of the "Revue de Paree,"
girl-filled continental extravaganza,
which comes to the stage .of the Bijou
Theatre, Battle Creek, for a three day
engagement, starting Thursday. De­
cember 26..
Staged in various scenes with novel
lighting effects and elaborately cos­
tumed, it is filled with singing, danc­
ing and comedy stars who blaze forth
in a swift, glamorous entertainment,
with a decided continental flavor.
First to be mentioned in the long
list of talent is the Silver Venus, danseuse from the Moulin Rouge tn Paris.
Clothed only in a heavy metallic paint
her dance creations produce a start­
ling effect, for her almost perfect
body, stands out like a classical statue.
Her artistic dance interpretations and
exotic divertisements created a verit­
able sensation in the music halls of
Europe during the past season. Gene
Gory and Roberta are outstanding ec­
centric musical maniacs. The Four
Marvels are amazing girl acrobatic
dancers from Casino de Paree and
are making their first appearance in
this country. Other stellar lights in­
clude Ming and Toy, youthful native
Chinese personality singers and in­
strumentalists; Cal Norris and Pals,
the pals being three clever simians
whose antics are quite mirth provok­
ing; Wilfrid Dubois, Jongleur Distin­
gue, whose skill and dexterity has
placed him at the top in his line; El­
aine Darling, a beautiful blonde cherie
whose talented feet has placed her on
a par with Eleanor Powell; and Nikki
Nicoll, Une Charmante Petite Fille,
or in other words a vivacious French
“Mistress of Ceremony." Supple­
menting this fine array of principals
is a chorus ensemble of dashing
French beauties, noted for their grace,
pep and pulchritude.
To be shown on the same program
with this big stage show is the screen
feature, "Nsvy Wife," with Ralph
Bellamy, Claire Trevor, and Ben Ly­
on in the leading roles.

Reject Drivers’ Li­
cense Applications
Law Is Very Strict, And Much CareIcwuieHM Is Shown. Some Prose­
cutions.

According to W. H. Needham of
the Michigan Safety and Traffic Di­
rectors Assn.. Lansing, a great many
applications for operators’ licenses
have been rejected and in a goodly
number of instances prosecutions for
perjury have been instigated because
the applicant had failed to state a
former driving record on the applica­
tion.
It is very evident that too few of
our motorists realize that under the
statute making drivers’ licenses com­
pulsory, be must state whether or not
he has been convicted of any offense
pertaining to traffic prior to making
application for license. Section 23, of
Act. No. 91, P. A. 1931, reads as fol­
lows:
"Any person who shall make any
false affidavit, or shall knowingly
swear or affirm falsely, to any matter
or thing required by the terms of this
Act to be sworn to or affirmed, shall
be guilty of perjury and upon convic­
tion shall be punishable by fine or im­
prisonment as other persons commit­
ting perjury are punishable.”
It is found that in a great many in­
stances, through lack of proper coop­
eration on the part of notaries thruout the state, before whom these
oaths are taken, that prosecutions are
feasible because of the fact that too
few of the notaries actually swear the
applicant, make him take off his hat
and raise his right hand, as prescrib­
ed by law. But, remember this, Mr.
Driver, whether or not the notary
fails to properly execute his duty in
this respect, your application will be
rejected if the records on file in the
Lansing offices show that you have
been convicted for traffic violations
prior to making application. It might
also be well to state that drastic ac­
tion is contemplated by the Executive
offices toward revoking commissions
of notaries found to be failing to com­
ply in this regard.
