The idea of pricing electri
city based on time ofday of
its use. a concept receiving
increasing interest from
utility researchers.
Is
nothing new for Consumers
I’m*er Company.
Now a report by a national
committee which includes
representatives from pri
vate and public electric com
panics and regulatory agen
cies and is headed by Wil
liam J. Jefferson, a Consum
er* Power executive, shows
broad vupport for the con
rept.
"Consumers Power haa
had time of-day pneing for
Us large industrial and com
mereial customers for 40
years," Jefferson said. He is
executive director of rates,
research and data control foe
the utility.
L'nds-r Consumers Pow­
er's time of day demand
pricing rate design, users of
large amounts of electricity
can use more during off peak
hours for the same cost as a
lesaer amount used in peak
hours, thus encouraging offpeak use.
Since April of this year, in
accord with a rate order
from the Michigan Public
Service
Commission
iMPSCi. Consumers Power
is also charging lews to all
commercial and industrial
customers for all kilowatthours used during off peak
hours. These hours vary
according to winter or sun
mrr months.

The Boy Scouts of the

The boys prepared their
winter shelters prior to the
campout. These rugged

annual Klondike Derby com­
petition under the guidance
of their leader. Dave
Hughes. If there are any
boys in the area about Gun

wish to take part in this
troop, contact Dave or John

for more Scouts in the troop.

lefterw srid..
.
Customers' attitudes and
acceptance of various rate
design options are included
in the study. A survey by
Consumers Power earlier
this year of 118 commercial
and industrial customers in
Michigan is part nf the
material being reviewed.
That survey, ordered by
the MPSC. shows that Con
sumers Power Company's
larger eonuncreul and in
dastnal customers basically
do not object to peak load
pricing as long as the rates
irr based on costs. They do
oppose penalties on peak
rates, not based on costs of
service, that have the effect
of raising electricity costs to
the customers.
Research so far does not
warrant imposing peak load
pricing or direct controls on
all electric utilities or on all
types of electric customers.
Jefferson said. "For ex
ample, the cost of extra
metering for smaller cus
lomers must be studied
more." he added.
A final report will be
submitted to NARUC in
March 1977.

Il »u with groat regret
that we learned of the
possible closing of the
C.A.C. Oerter. We have
both been very interested in
this project and its unbeliev
able that a city like Hastings
could not have given them
more support.
This is an organization so
vitally needed in your com
mumty. At a glance, it was
understandable that it could
not be a success without the
cooperation of everyone and
the fact that the Seniors
continued to meet al the
Union Hall and would not
join with the C.A.C. group,
also the Volunteer Service.
The consolidation of all these
groups together was needed
to make it one big cotnmu
nity project.
We are very active in the
Senior Center in our present
home and i« has grown into a
membership of over 1.000
very active, lovable, dyaa
mk persons who add a greet
deal to the community in
many ways. We get 100%
support not always financi
ally from every merchant
and organization. All volun
leer service should lx thru
the C.A.C. in order to get
sufficient Government sup­
port.
Mr. Cooley and other have
worked hard to see their
dream accomplished and you
have such a beautiful build
ing that we feel very badly
that it may all fall through.
The idea that the C.A.C.
or Senior Centers are only a
place for people that do not
have anything else to do is
all wrong. There is more
heart Io heart value receiv
cd from this organization
than many others.

if the door has windows or panota. they
can ba broken. The burglar can reach in and
unlock the door; or if the door ia hokow, the

So. you ask. what kind of door should I

The beat would be a steal door; but If a

thick ia recommended. If you should inetai a
solid door. It is recommended that a wide
angle viewer b» instated. Thio is for your
own protection, so you can identity anyone
that comes to your door.
However, if you have a good door end not
a good frame, you hove wasted your money.
A door should fit snugly and have a strong
frame made of metal or herthuood.
One more aspect of doors and frames that

must be chocked - the hengee.

Having now completed our term in

our gratitude to the many citizens of

enforcement efforts. Particularly, we
mention the Barry County Sheriff's
Department, Hastings City Police, Michi­
gan State Police, Nashville Police,
Middleville Police, the Township police
agencies and other elected County and
Township officials and their staffs.
Additionally, we are indebted to the
many citizens who assisted us as
witnesses and those who made the
effort to report criminal offenses to the
various police agencies. We are confi­
dent that the new Prosecutor and his
staff can count on your continuing
support.

Colder Weather May Boost Heat Bill
Continuing unusually cold
weather may result in high­
er than normal energy bills.
Gordon Howard, district
manager for Consumers
Fbwrr Company has warn
ed.
Another reason for higher
bill* will be higher prices
which the utility is paying to
interstate gas pipeline sup
pliers, Howard said. The

price increases were autho
rired by the Federal Power
Commission hcc.iuse of the
increased costs incurred by
the suppliers and to provide
incentives for natural gas
exploration.
Those increases, which
the company will begin to
pass through to customers,
will not result in additional
profits for Consumers

Power, according to How­
ard. The increases are pass
ed on directly to customers
under cost adjustment pro­
cedures authorized by state
regulators.
Howxrd pointed out that
with shorter daylight hours
and holiday activities which
consume energy, customer
consumption usually goes up
at this time of year. “When
you add the fact that the
weather has been so cold,
some of our customers could
receive substantially higher
bills."
’

Howard noted that the
National Weather Service
has stated that December
was abnormally cold and
that January will also have
unusually cold tempera­
tures.
He suggested that cus­
tomers dial down the thcr
mostal to 68 degrees during
the day and 60 degrees al
night, limit the number of
times outside doors are
opened and close off the heat
registers to rooms which are
not used regularly.
Howard advised custom­
ers in uninsulated homes to
at least install ceiling insula
tion to help cut down fuel
consumption and ultimately
save money on their healing
bills. The utility offers
assistance in financing home
insulation.

Colder Weather May Boost Heat Bill
Continuing unusually cold
weather may result in high­
er than normal energy bills.
Gordon Howard, district
manager for Consumers
Fbwrr Company has warn
ed.
Another reason for higher
bill* will be higher prices
which the utility is paying to
interstate gas pipeline sup
pliers, Howard said. The

price increases were autho
rired by the Federal Power
Commission hcc.iuse of the
increased costs incurred by
the suppliers and to provide
incentives for natural gas
exploration.
Those increases, which
the company will begin to
pass through to customers,
will not result in additional
profits for Consumers

Power, according to How­
ard. The increases are pass
ed on directly to customers
under cost adjustment pro­
cedures authorized by state
regulators.
Howxrd pointed out that
with shorter daylight hours
and holiday activities which
consume energy, customer
consumption usually goes up
at this time of year. “When
you add the fact that the
weather has been so cold,
some of our customers could
receive substantially higher
bills."
’

Howard noted that the
National Weather Service
has stated that December
was abnormally cold and
that January will also have
unusually cold tempera­
tures.
He suggested that cus­
tomers dial down the thcr
mostal to 68 degrees during
the day and 60 degrees al
night, limit the number of
times outside doors are
opened and close off the heat
registers to rooms which are
not used regularly.
Howard advised custom­
ers in uninsulated homes to
at least install ceiling insula
tion to help cut down fuel
consumption and ultimately
save money on their healing
bills. The utility offers
assistance in financing home
insulation.

landfill, which has been
operated at a financial Io**,
will be u»ed only for munici­

unusual excavation waste
such as demolished building

allowed tu charge new cus­

The Sanitary Service is

Thompson said about
three years ago an offer waa
made which may have been
financially good for stock
holders, but rould have cost
300 to 400 jobs if HMC had
been purchased.
Tracing the development
of tbe company. Thompson
said rt was organised in 1915
as a subsidiary of interna
tional Sea) I Lock making
automotive item* exclusive­
ly. Early products were
curtain light* for the touring
ear tops pa Model T" Fords
*n&lt;&gt; other early cars, and
running board luggage
racks.
In 1923 Hastings intro­
duced its own line of piston
ring* and sold them to
jobbers or wholesalers and
mail order houses for rw
placement service.
In 1929 it separated from
Seal &amp; lack into tbe Hast
ing* Piston Ring Company
with Aben Johnson as pcem
dent and general manager.
In September. 1929. it be
came Hastings Manufactur
ing.
The famous Steel-Vent oil
ring was introduced in 1935
and it revdulioniied the
replacement piston ring in
dustry. Thompson said.
The exceller.i performance
of this ring - particularly in
the early Ford V-8 engines,
which were notorious far oil
consumption—won almost
an immediate and dramatic
acceptance from the replace
ment trade." Thompson
aaid.
"Within a few short years
Hastings grew from a minor
position in the piston ring
industry to one of the top
three in the replacement
ring market "
Today. Hasting* ring* are
sold in the U.8. by more
than 4.000 wholesalers and
through the export division
are sold in most countries in

Hastings acquired in 1940
JR. Case of Jonesboro,
Ark., and the Casite oil
additive was added to the
line, Today, the Casite divi
sion manufactures six dif­
ferent chemical products for

From 1947 to 1985 the

A complete line of replace
meat oil filter* featuring
"Deneite" waa introduced in
1950. "Densile" is composed
of a mixture of raw cotton
fibers and "does an out­
standing job of keeping oil
eiexa." Thompson explained.
Hastings Manufacturing
has had a steady growth into
one of tbe leading manufac­
turer* of oiL air. d»r**l. fuel
and gasoline filters.
Ths company occupies

about 500.000 square leet of
manufacturing plant factli
lies with annual sales in 1978
somewhere around tbe 536
million mark.
The company makes pro
duets under the trade labels
of other firm*. *uch as Mack
Truck. Tractor Supply Com­
pany and others It also sells
rings to Cadillac. Pontiac,
Continental Engines. Inger­
soll Hand Compressors, and
to many other* with special
requirements for piston
rings. »uch as snowmobile
pistons and some of tbe highperformance engines.
The company also buys
and *ells specialised loot*,
transmission filter* and fuel
pumps
The company hire* Paul
Harvey to help sell its
product.: in the highly com­
petitive field. For example,
there aro 75 to 80 different
brood* of oil additives on the
market.
Thompson said the com
pany uses some 30 com
merriai warehouses feeding
the warehouse distributors.
It is impossible for even a
warehouse distributor to
carry all the items required
to service the various en
gine* of lawnmower*, out
board motors, tractor*,
trucks, stationary engine*
and automobile*. "You
would be amased al the
number of piston ring* that
are u*cd in the air Industry
alone." he said.
The company has its own
foundry and "we do have
what we consider one of tbe
best materials for piston
rings that is available to
day."
Federal Mogul of South
field handle* the expert
division. The company has a
license in Mexico. Me* Par.
and Hastings Limited in
Canada. Above the border
they manufacture the popu
lar piston ring set* and
purchase all their casting*
and the piston ring sets that
are not so popular, from the
local plant. They assemble
the oil filler*, paint, package
and market them.
Another division is the
Douglas Corporation at
Tekonsha, acquired in 1973.
That company sene* the
industrial and water pollu
tioo control market with
hard surface and corrosion
resistant flame sprayed
metal and ceramic coaling*
which are applied to the
critical wear surface* of
pump*, machine tool spin
dies and similar equipment.
Tom Jonriton of Hastings is
the manager.
Thompson said Hastings
Manufacturing is close to its
third generation of people in
the company.
The people who have ser
ved the company, those who
are working now and who
will be working in the future
are what makes a company.
"Their indivldua* effort,
and their hard work is what
it takes in the competitive
world we’re dealing in today
to keep, not only our com

faced with stricter rules
than in the past, the Internal
Revenue Service said today.
Under lhe Tax Reform
Act of 1976, income tax
preparers are subject to 125
fines for failure to furnish
completed copies of returns
or claims for refund lo their
clients; failure lo sign lhe
returns or claims in the
space provided: and failure
to enter their identifying
number along with their
signature on each return or
claim prepared.
In addition, lax preparers
are now required to main­
tain copies of each return or
eiairr. for refund prepar .-d
for pay for a period of three
years, or. failing that, they
must maintain a list contain
ing tbe name and identifying
number of each taxpayer
served. Each failure to do so
will subject the tax preparer
or his or her firm to a S50
fine, up to a maximum fine of
$25,000 in any given lax
year, according to lhe IRS.
While the IRS has no
authority to set rules deter
mining who may or may not
prepare retumr for pay. it
cautions taxpayers who seek
help to choose their tax
return preparer aa carefully
as they would a family
doctor ot attorney, since lhe
taxpayer ts ultimately re
sponiibile for the correct
nets of the return regardless
of who prepares it.

In afl the world, you are the only y-o-u

you a person of immaaaurMbto worth. There

are relationship* only you can maintain. No
Other person can futy take your piece.
You are so important to Our world! You
continually affect your mate, parent*. child­

Daily you help shape opinions, change
attitudes, detemwne values and set stand­
ards. The influence of your eaistence reaches
far beyond lhe limits of your mortal body.
If the world is good or bad, if it succeeds or
fail, you have had a part. Life io a game In
whch all are ptoyers. You exist; therefore
you are contnbutmg. Every decision you
make, every act you perform leeves its mark.
Even your idleness has a role.
In some ways the fate of the whole world
depends on you. No matter how insignificant
you think you are. your life m a factor for
either good or evil. There is no middto
ground No man can servo two masters.
Your life IS either a tool for Chret or it is an
instrument of the devil.
Every thing wo cel good or tight in our
world n directly traceable to the influence of
Christ. It is Che Gospel that has destroyed
slavery, upgraded the status of women,
erected orphanages and homes for the aged,
taught us to care for lhe poor. It is the

Trees Vital Air

Condit ioners
BY ARTHUR JMEFBY
A tores: is a more efficient
air roadi:loner than any
gadget man has dev ised
If you've never though! of
a forest m this light, consid­
er these facts,
One acre of healthy y ^.-.g
trees will consume 12 t r« of
cx-bun dioxide and give off
four tons of fresh oxygen a
year.
Thi* is the most impirtant
kind of air conditioning
there t*. In fact, it is essen­
tial t-’ the survival of all
human being* and anur.al*.
We need oxygen to hv e .And
with each breath we draw,
we remove some of the
oxygen in the air and replace
it with carbon dioxide Ob­
viously. if this proces* con
tinued without any offset,
we'd rather quickly exhaust
thr oxygen ia the at
mosphere.
But thank* be to God or
nature or chance or what
ever explanation you pre
fer*. plant* use the air in a
manner exactly the reverse
of the way animal* ute it.
They inhale carbon dioxide
and exhale oxygen. So all
form* of plant life
and
especially the forest*
are
roatinually engaged in what
is from our viewpoint a
cleansing and renewal of the
air.
In eoatemporary usage,
"air ronditiosung" mean* not
only cleansing but also cool­
ing. And forest* are ex­
tremely efficient at that. too.
If you've ever walked ui a
forosi on a hot summer di;.
you mu*t have txxiced how
much cooler it is in there
that it is out in the open.

You may have thought that
this was uff-My the result of
being in the shade instead of
in the sun But there's lots
more to it than that.
A tree continually carries
on a process called trans­
piration. in which moisture
evaporate* through it*
leave* or needles. Evapora­
tion. as you remember from

Gilmer Backs Governor’s

Plea To End Abuses
Governor Mil'fkens call
for the elimination of abuse*
ui several state program*
has the full support of State
Representative Donald H.
Gilmer. iR-Augusta*.
The governor, in his State
of the State Message Jan.
13. called for quick legists
live action on proposals lo
eliminate abuses in workers*
compensation, unemploy­
ment compensation and wel­
fare.
Gilmer, who wa* elected
from the 55th District Nov.
2. said it was obvious by the
governor's firm comments
about welfare fraud that he
will make a strong push for
welfare reform during this
session of the Legislature.
"I agree with the gover­
nor 'hat we must take
immediate step* to establish
mandatory sentences for
specific crimes and increase
our taw enfa-cement efforts
by the addition of 300 state
trooper* so that more per­
son* committing crimes will
be caught and will face
certain punishment for their
»rti«i»." Representative Gil­
mer said.
Approximately one fourth
of the governor's message
was devoted to proposals lo
aceelerats the improvement
of the business cimate and

provide greater job oppor­
tunities. Representativ* Gil­
mer pointed out.
“We also know about
those who unfairly take ad­
vantage of lhe worker's
compenMtion benefit* and it
make* no tense to me at all
for a person who voluntarily
quits his or her job to be
eligible to collect unemploy­
ment benefits.
'There are certain in­
equities in the Single Busi­
ness Tax which need cor­
rection. as the Governor
pointed out. By relieving lhe
tax burden of the small
businessman we will do
much lo assure success, and
encourage expansion, which
in turn will serve as an
incentive for more job crea­
tion.
"I am especially pleased
with the governor's state­
ment that hi* proposed bud
get. which we will receive in
a few week*, will not call for
an increase in taxes."
Reacting lo the overall
message. Rep. Gilmer said
he felt the governor covered
the major area* of concern
very well, adding that aosDa
of the new programs out­
lined by the Governor ap­
pear “interesting and excit­
ing."

Exteasiee Heme Eraaswlrt
New federal Trade Com
mission rulings on warrsn
Hrs went into effect Dec.
3l»t and should have more
meaning for the consumer.
In the pa«l. warranties
and guarantees have not
been loo effective in helping
a customer determine
whether or nut a company
will stand behind ila pro
duct. But in the new ETC
rulings, nine specific points
id information are required
that should make this more
clear.
The warranty must point
out who ia protected, what
parts of the product are
covered, lhe effective date
and life of the warranty, and
the steps that the buyer
must take in case of a defect
or failure of thr product
Of course. companies ean
choose whether or not they
issue a warranty with their
product. And some have
chosen not lo. But the idea
behind thr FTC ruling is
that if a warranty is issued
then it must mean some
thing lo the consumer.
One of the dues a con
turner can use as to the
warranty's worth is whether
or not it is -full" nr "limited."
One id these two words
mutt be printed on the
document.
A full warranty should he
a better deal as under the
ETC ruling, it's required lo
carry these provisions:
First. any defects must be
fiard without charge and
within a reasonable amount
of time
Second, the buyer cannot
be asked to go to great
trouble and expense in hav
tng defective products fiard
And
if the company
issuing the warranty fails lo
correct a delect, then lhe
customer is entitled lo a
refund or a replacement
whichever he or she chooses.
These are all require
menu of the warranty that
has the word "full" printed
on it. Hut If the word
limited- appears on the
warranty, then lhe shopper
should be aware that one or
more of these requirements
will not be met. However,
both the limited and lhe full
warranty must meet a few
m aimurn standards accord
ing to lhe new FTC ruling.
Foe instance, any inten

lion of not covering damage
resulting from failure of the
product must be so stated in
the warranty. That might be
the food that spoils in a
defective fierier. Or (he
clothes that arc charred li a
dryer because an automatic
heal shut-off didn't work.
Also, unless ETC sp
proves. there can be no
disclaimers written into thr
warranty
such as not
honoring a warranty on a car
that isn't serviced by the
seller. Or on a vacuum
cleaner that uses a bag made
by another manufacturer.
How effective warranties
become for rompart ivr shop
ping depends on how much
attention consumers give
them. If they include thr
warranty as a factor in their
choice n.aktng. then it can
become quite a lever in
helping consumers gel a
better deal at the market
place.

SNOWMOBILE TIPS
The Michigan Swewmebile
Act states:
In a court action in this
state where competent
evidence demonstrates that
ii vehicle which is permitted
t&lt;&gt; he operated on a high
way....is in a collision with a
snowmobile on a roadway.
■ he driv er of I he snowmobile
involved in the collision shall
lie considered prims facie
negligent.
A duly constituted law
enforcement officer of a city,
village, township, county, oc
lhe state may authorize use
of a snowmobile on a public
highway or street within his
jurisdiction when an emer­
gency occurs and convent
tonal motor vehicles cannot
be u«cd foe transportalin
due lo snow or other ex
irrcnc highway conditions.
A snowmobile may be
operated on a street or
highway for a special event
of limited duration conduct­
ed according to a prearrang­
ed schedule only under per
mil from the governmental
unit having jurisdiction. The
event may be conducted on
lhe frozen surface of public
w lers only under permit
from the Department of
Natural Resources.

For Regular Mail Service,

Keep Snow Shoveled
With the heavy acrumuls
lion of snow received al­
ready this winter comes a
plea from the post office lo
all postal customers to keep
their sidewalks. approaches
and steps as free from s-tow
and ire as possible.
City letter carriers are
finding it extremely hard to
wade through the deep snow
on the many unshoveled
sidewalks.
An appeal lo rural cus
tamers to keep the ap
proache* to their mailboxes
clear is also made. The snow
should he moved away from
b«&lt; h sides of the approach to
lhe hos so that lhe carrier
ran get rinse enoughl lo lhe
box to remove letters put
out foe him to mail and to
deposit the customers mail
without having to crawl out
the window of his vshwie.
Although rural carriers

must make every reasonable
effort to serve the greatest
number of customers poasi
ble during the sever*
weather, these carriers are
not required to provide ser
vice on foot when roods are
impassable, when they can
rxX reach the boxes, or when
city and stale authorities
issue warning that rood
travel is extremeley hazara-

Customers, both city and
rural, should also be aware
that failure to open the
approaches to their boxes
promptly after heavy snows
may prevent carriers -urn
making deliveries.
"We want lo deliver your
mail to your mailbox each
day. This ia one of the most
important parts of our job."

fVoice of the People]
earned Ckaefl" who vested
his or her opinion on Snow
mobile* and drivers in the
Wednesday. January 5.1977
issue of thia paper, I would
like lo say that there is
always a few who try lo spoil
any recreation by their
thoughtlessness of others.
Similar situations occur
oa lake* with speedboats,
trad* with motorcycles and
anv other outdoor recreation
where a vehide is involved.
You claim some poor motor
isl would lose his last dollar
defending himself in court.
This shows that you ar* not
aware of th* laws of mowmobile driver* according to
the "State of Michigan.
Snowmobile Act 74 P.A.
1968 and ammended through
July 9. 1975." Section I2r
alate*, "in a collision with a
snowmobile on a roadway,
the driver of the snowmobile
involved in the collision shall
he considered prims facie
negligent". 1 might add. it is
lhe thoughtless automobile
driven who have caused all
of us to pay outrageous
insurance premiums.
You can be certain the
Harry County Sheriff De­
partment would treat any
snowmobile driver who is
endangering others and
their property as a violator
if they were in lhe right
place al the right time.
Manpower wise, that is
impossible. As the "Concern
cd Citizen" you claim you
are. it is your responsibility
to inform the Law Officers of
violators. To say that reck­
less snowmobile drivers
should be treated the same
as drunken drivers is ridicu­
lous. Reckless automobile
driver* ar* not even sen­
tenced as drunken drivers
unless there ia proof of
alcohol tn the driven blood.
Fair is fair!
If all of us who like to
snowmobile did move out of
Michigan, the unemploy­
ment and welfare lines
would be full of motel own­
er*. restaurant owners,
tavern owners. mechanics,
salesmen, etc. al! winter.
Their winter income* would
come out of your pocket.
Please make it a point to
attend the public meeting*
held in Hastings lo voice
your opinion, hear the
opinions of olhen and be­
come more aware of the
situation al hand. The Road
Commissioners you com
mended won't even do that
much.

To lhe Editor:
I An epen latter to tbe
Hastings library Beard end
tbe citizens and taxpayer* *1
Hastings. |
I feel that you should bv
aware of a recent dispute
regarding unwritten policies
of the Hastings Public
library.
On Thursday. January 6,1
returned a child's book lo
the library to show the
librarian that it had been
damaged beyond repair and
lo make reparation for this
book. Even though "soiled"
had been previously rxXed in
its front cover and lhe book
had obviously had much
(sbluse. 1 was charged full
purchase price for a new
book plus 11. for processing.
(The same that would've
been charged for a last
book).
After paying for it. I
asked to have tbe book so
that my children might grt
some uw and enjoyment
from it. I was refused my
request Even after inquir
ing with five other libraries
lo see if my request was
unreasonable or unjust. I
could not convince Miss
Oehler to give me the book 1
had paid for.
That evening I checked
with Mr. Clifford Dolan,
president of the library
board, and be agreed to
straighten lhe matter out.
because he said if something
were damaged in a store,
you would have to pay for it.
but then you could certainly
have the ^'rces or lhe
damaged item.
On Saturday, after hear
ing no word I recalled Mr.
Dolan. He later returned my
call lo reverse his decision
and to toll me that he would
rather dtspoee of the book
than lo let me entertain or
educate my children with it.
He requested a letter to
the board before ita meeting
on January 20lh.
I (eel that this is unfair
practice and. further. I
would propone that written

policies and procedure* be
outlined and reviewed. I
would a pprvciate support by
lb* people of Hastings ia
promoting good use and fair
practices in their library.

Joyce Cookbn

Talk* Editor:
I have never before writ­
ten to th* Voice of th*
Propie before but this ia on
my mind and I (eel romped
ed to write.
I have beard so often the
officials asking lo report
people who misuse A.D.C.
funds. Well believe me it
won't do you any good in
Harry County. My husband
and 1 know.
We have a house on Slate
Rd. we rent out. The people
who were renting it left it
without any heat. The pipes
froze up snd burst (loading
lhe cellar my husband had
put in a new furnace and
well system and had the hot
water heater repaired for
them.
We did not know there
wasn't any heat in the house.
They called us and told us
the fuel line was leaking but
my husband could never
catch any one al home to
check it.
Finally he used hi* own
key and went down cellar to
check the line. No leak
anywhere.
Now they have moved
out. leaving lhe house a real
mess and owing two months
rent. We went to lhe A.D.C.
office lo see about it. What
did we find out. Nothing
they can do. But there are
other way* of collecting.
Believe us, we will never
rent lo another family on
A.D.C.
Some people write and
won't sign their name but I
will.
I hope to sec this in print
but doubt that I will.
Sincerely.
Mrs. Harold Christiansen
T* tbe Editor:
There is more than ample
reason to fear the subver­
sive Equal Rights Amend­
ment. No one can predict
ho* the courts will apply H
or what its far reaching
effects will be.
Religious schools of th*
Catholic, Protestant and
Jewish faith which separate
their children by sex, as well
a* military schools, would be
confronted with instant law­
suit* to go coed, or lose their
tax exemption. Churches
themselves which reserve
the priesthood for men and
th* convent for women,
would have to justify this
"discriminatory" practice.
The radical feminists pro­
moting ERA have made it
very dear that they intend
to force their ideas on tbe
rest of us. A* feminist Jean*
Binstock said in The Futur­
ist for June 1972: "We thus
face the need to demand that
lhe ancient and honorable
occupation of motherhood
fall into disrepute and that
women commit themselves
lo other occupations. Wo­
men must be liberated to
enjoy tbe fruits of other
occupations whether they
want it lo be or not."
The ERA is designed to
enslave American women,
not to free them. It is a
typically phony leftist cam
paign designed to move the
authority of government in­
to every relationship involv­
ing women.
Help to rescind the ERA
in Michigan. Write to lhe
state legislature and ask
them to work to rescind the
Equal Rights Amendment.
Sincerely.

The Hasting* High Saxon*
came within a whisker of
upsetting Twin Valley Con­
ference leader Sturgis here
Friday night, but couldn't
quite pull It off and had to
eeltie for a 6056 defeat.
The win gave Sturgis a 5-1
league record and 8-1 over­
all. while Hastings is I 5 and
45 overall. In three of
Hastings' Twin Valley Jos.
e*. only a total of 10 point*
separated tbe team*.
Hastings Coach Wayne
Brown, while naturally dis­
appointed because of the
lo**, I* optimistic. “I slUl feel
that our team has come
along, and if we continue to
gel those *ame opportuni­
ties, we're going lo ber
alright."
Coach Brown was referr­
ing to some of the missed
shots by tbe Saxon* under
and around the basket -some
should have fallen.
Coach Brown said "We
had a difficult lime at lhe
opening of the game gelling
into our offensive tempo. We
were too slow at the begin­
ning. then too fast."
Slurgi* outstanding shoot­
ing gave the Trojans tbe ball
game. Coach Ken Esper's
charges drilled 25 out of 52
field goal attempt* while
Hasting* sank just 23 out of
68. Each team converted 10
free throw*, but Sturgis
mt-ihed 10 out of 16 and
Hailing* 10 out of 23. This
wa* in contrast lo lhe
Saxons performance Tues­
day night, when they beat
Otsego at lhe line sinking 22
out &lt;&gt;f 25 while being outgun­
ned from lhe floor. 27 21.
Hasting* trailed 17-14

after the first quarter Fri­
day and 33 21 al the half.
Near the close of lhe third
eanto the Saxon* made 6
straight point* Jnd went
into lhe finale down by one.

gi*' scoring. tallied al lhe
start of the fourth when
Malt Neil hit a jumper. Mike
Hartman took a feed from
Con Ahearn for another two
pool* and then Neil got one
under tbe hoop and Hasting*
led. 5441.
Slurgi* took lime out with
5:21 left in the game. Ilay
resumed and the Trojan*
still couldn't *core and took
time out again lo regroup at
4:32. This time they got
going and Willie Miller
drove in foe two and Mike
Munwxi method a Jong one
and Slurgi* wa* back on lop

with 3:30 left in lhe game.
Kevin Hill worked lhe ball
in for a layup and Hading*
led for the last lime, 56 55.
With 2:47 left 8l»*on con
verted two free throw* and
it wa* 57 56. Ahearn and
Neil miited for Hasting*,
then Sitton missed a free
throw. Hill mimed two from
the floor and Hasting* took
time out with 1:38 on the
dock.
When play resumed Hast
ings missed again. Simon
sank a layup and Slurgi*
took time out. With the
three point edge. Sturgis

Propose New
Downtown District
"Wa don't want to give
thia up. We feel it haa a lot of
benefits" .Aiderman Thomas
Robinson said Monday
night. Jan. 24. aa be pre
seated a second proposed
Downtown Development
District lor Hastings which
would encompass generally
only the central business
district.
The bearing on the newly
proposed dial rid will be
held at 8 p.m. on Feb. 28 in
the Hastings High School
Lecture Hall. The site (or
the regular city council ses­
sion was moved to the
Lecture Hall by Mayor Ivan
Snyder, who said lhe 400seat auditorium should be
Urge enough to accommo­
date all who might attend.
When the hearing on the
original development dis
trirt was held Dec. 13- a
proposal which included eon
sidersble residential areas
there wasn't room in the
regular council chambers for
ill the citizens, and hardly
enough room in the general
office foe the overflow.
To get the new proposal
underway. Robinson moved
to take lhe original plan
from the table and then it
was rejected unanimously.
Aiderman Robinson pro
posed the new plan, stress­
ing that “this is only a
concept." Robinson said he
did not anticipate the need
for taxes, and the permitted
two mills would only be
levied for operating expens
es if ever necessary.
Il would pr -vide an oppor
tunity for eight men to sit
down and attempt to figure
out what could be done to
improve lhe downtown. The
Development
Authority
would permit Hastings to
apply for grants and to
•crept rifts and boqweeU. U
would be a vehicle for im­
proving lhe downtown area,
he added
The new district would
include zone B 1 and a part
of R-2, eliminating the rest
denlial sections.
Property owners, even
those not in lhe new district
but within 300 feet, will
receive personal notices of
the hearing date.
The new resolution of
intent was adopted
Alty. John A. Watts of
Allegan, representing 24
property owners or rest
dents, submitted a letter al
Monday's session and peti­
tions signed, he said, by 71
businessmen, merchants and
professional people opposing
creation of a Development

Authority.
Atty. Watts said the peo­
ple he represents call them
selves Citizens in Action and
oppose the authority. The
citizens are not
against
progress nor needed Im
provement but oppose
"change only lor the sake of
change." He said little need
has been shown foe the
creation of another govern
mental bureaucracy.
Watts wrote that the Citi­
zens in Action believe that
the revitalization of down­
town Hastings can be accom­
plished by free and respon­
sible citizens voluntarily
pitching in to help the down­
town area. "This group be­
lieves that lhe entire con
cept of another government
al authority which has pow
era to condemn both residen
ces and businesses, and
which would have the autho­
rity to tax properly owners
is fundamentally wrong," his
letter states.
“The solution, they be
lieve, is not simply to re­
draw the boundaries, but to
vote down the entire con­
cept of a Downtown De­
velopment Authority for
downtown Hastings."
Robinson pointed out that
the Development Authority
would be under the control
of the council, and certainly
its members would listen to
the opinions of the citizens.
John Fritz. Hastings busi­
nessmen who has 10 par
cels of properly involved,
suggested that a straw vote
of the people involved might
be taken to provide a basis
for a decision. Mayor Snyder
said anyone could take such
a straw vote. Mary Lou
Gray suggested that the
petitions submit led indkat
ed what a straw vote would
show
One citizen suggested the
luuneii concern itself with
something that would pro­
vide jobs.
The new hearing will be at
8 p.m on Feb. 28 at lhe
Hastings High School Lec­
ture Hall.

Pennock Bldg. Gifts

Reach $59,000
Contributions and pledges
to Pennock Hospitals build
ing fund to raise $100,000
towards a new Pennock
Hospital renovation and
building program had reach
ed $59,000 as of Monday
morning. Jan. 24, Director
Richard Fluke told Hastings
Rotarians at their regular
noon luncheon meeting held
at the Moose Lodge.
Director Fluke said dona
lions to the hospital's cur
rent building fund ranged
from a elderly women's 50
cent gift to S12J00 made by
a local business.
Fluke said 1100.000 must
be raised fur the current
financing program. He ex
plained that gifts and be
quests to the hospital over
the last seven years gave
the hospital a $94,000 nest
rtf* for a major program,
and the annual depreciation
program is actually done in
cash with lhe hospital writ

ing a check to the deprocia
lion fund and over the past
10 years that fund has
grown to an invested
1588,000.
Huke said some business­
men who have already given
said they would take
another look this year, and
that others expressed in­
terest in the project. Fluke
hoped all will participate in
the fund raising effort.
A special gift from a
Detroit foundation will give
the hospital $32400 for
specific equipment. About
$25,000 is anticipated from
the Hospital Auxiliary and
Gift Shop for a total of about
$745,000, leaving a balance
of some $500,000 to be
borrowed through a 10 year
mortgage. Fluke said the
hospital could handle such a
mortgage over a decade.
"We're a tax exempt buai
nes* but we're attempting to
get away from thia "non-

ufit" ides. Fluke said he
keved all organizations
even the government
should operate in the Mack
Fluke explained hospital
operations cost about $4'.’i
million a year with about a
$2 million payroll. Hospital
personnel are contributing
through a payroll deduction
plan, he added. There are
about 200 full time em
ployees. and a total of about
285 to provide seven-day
coverage.
“If we can make our
$190,000 goal, we think our
project will go." Fluke de
dared
The new addition to be
built on the south end of thr
present building, and re­
modeling. will cost an esli
mated 1925.000. Equipment
will cost another $160,000
for a total of lt.OM.OOO. As
originally planned, lhe addi
lion calls for two floors, the
ftr*t floor to house a new
emergency care unit, and
th.- second kvel will house
the new intensive care unit
which will have six private
rooms and a family waiting
room.
However, lhe planners
are now considering adding
a third level al this time,
which would hike thr cost
$160,000 or to a total &lt;&gt;l
$1.246400.
Finke pointed out how
budding rosts have soared
' 4t.ee the last h.ispiUl luiin
project.
Fluke distributed a sheet
revealing hospital operating
statistics. Emergency room
pateints have increased
from 4.033 in IMA or 11 per
day to 19.429 in 1976 or 53 s
day. a 382 percent increase.
Respiratory therapy
patients increased from
1491 in IMA to 6.786 last
year. X ray patients number
7.096 in 1966 and 16489 in
76.
A gond vital statistic
shows that the average stay
al Pennock has come down
from 7.1 days in 1966 to 6.5
days in 1975.
Donations and pledges
may be sent to the director's
office at Pennock Hospital.

"THE RISK OF FAITH"
by MICHAEL ANTON. Paetor.
Grace Lutheran Church
It to ttoheertening to tee how tbe Church’s
prophets and preachers encumber the rathcai
invitation of the Goepei. With a best of
systematL arguments and supposed proofs,
defenders at the faith attempt to argue
nonbeitovws into believing by presenting
Christianity as logical and reasonable
For exan^to. the case is argued you
shodd believe in Jeaua as lhe Christ and
Savior because some of the historical facts
of the Old and Now Testament can be
verified by archeology. As pofctciy as we can.
we say. "So what?" What if it can bo proven
that there wee a groat Hood or a first
Jerusalem temple or captives n Babylon or a
Golgotha? What io demonstrated is simply
the truthfulness of the Scripture in reporting
historical events and locations. But lhe same
can be demonstrated for non Chriotian
religions through investigation of then
anoent cultures Proving such historical
truth is not vafcdatng the Truth ol the
Gospel. Proving a Jesus of Nazareth really
existed is no more than proving Julius Caesar
redly lived as emperor of the Roman Empire.
Tbe issue st ill centers on Jesus as the Christ
and Savior of humankind
Again the cess is argued: you ought to
believe the Christian message because of the
Bible's age and durability Indeed, the
survival of the Scriptures through earliest
manuscripls. burnings and confiscations,
and muttpie translations is a miracle. But
human experience teas us age is not an
automate sign of crodMty. Besrdes. m its
sacred writings, the Upanishads, the Hindu
roflgioo contains writings older than those of
the Old Testament.
This is not to disparage archeological
search or historical study of the Scrpture.
Not at al. In fact, these cfcscsptmes should be
much encouraged, for expanding our under­
standing of both Testaments and the overall
message of salvation in Jesus the Christ But
these disciplines do not establish the Truth,
the Irving, dive Truth of Jesus as the world's
Lord and Savior.
First, the act of God in Christ a norther
logied nor reasonable God's grace makes no
human sense. To deliver himseff into human
form, beginning with Mary's conception, to
take the role of Suffering Servant, to offer

himself into an undeserved crucifixion these are not in keeping with human tog*.
But lhe aposito Paul says it best in 1
Corinthians 1 25. 27: "For the fookshneee of
God is wiser than mon. end the weakness of
God is stronger than men...but God chose
what Is foolish in the world to shame the
wise. God chose what e weak in the world to
shame the strong." God chose the path moot
contrary to human expectation to rescue us
from such dreams and to fulfil our true
potential as creatures mode in God's image.
Secondly, for this message of salvelion to
become heart and core In our lives, there is
nwrlnd another urweosonabto step the step
of faith Jesus' simple directive to his first
dscipies war "Fofiow mo." That command
remams the same for disaplee of the 20th
century.
But think of an earfy disciple like Matthew,
the tax colector. As Jesus passed by, ho
turned and uttered his call: "Follow me."
Where? For what? How long? These and
other queries must have raced through
Matthew's head. Why leave his position of
financial security? Why leave a location of
relative certainty for someone about whom
he know very little?
It was a step of greet uncertainty. It was a
step into the unknown. It woe a risk. It woe
the nsk of Matthew s Life - the risk of forth
Danish iheotogian philosopher Soren
Kierkegaard is well-known for his description
of faith, "a blind leap into the dark." It is
such a leap to trust someone you cannot see.
to fokow someone whose very existence
cannot be proven, to obey someone whose
woys are not always your ways, mysterious
and past finding out
Why would anyone stop off lhe precipice
into such an adventure? Because it to the
Lord who calls; he who calls to also he who
leads through the dark to the light. Because
the one on the cirtf knows hn need and deep

to lhe location of tbe propus
ed beach saying "We (the

Rev Hsyoe told those at
tbe public hearing that we
are concerned with ecology,**
acknowledging that mis

proposed adult beach was
designated in tbe eamp's

Barry County Drain Commtaaiooer Ray Bratton, who
attended tbe recent public

the project because he could
foresee no problems in the
areas of soil erosion aad

was his office's only interest
in the project. "I thought it

do more good than harm.” he
said.
The Camp owns 1.565 feet

public hearing many said
they would not object to the

The argument has been made that private

0a lacooe Tax Chaiges
The Tax Reform Act of
1976 made a number of
changes in the tax laws, not
all of which apply lo 1976
incomes. In many caaca,
changes that will increase
lax revenues are applied
retroactively while I how
that give lhe taxpayer a
break lake effect laler.
Also, the net effect of the
changes will be lo incrwM
the tax harden on persons
with higher incomes while
easing it somewhat fee those
in the lower brackets
For example, the new law
seeks lo curb tax shelters',
which have brought deduc
tions for cost a which in some
cases were larger than an
investor's actual invest­
ment. Under a new "at risk"
provision, losses in such
ventures are allowed only to
the extent of lhe individual's
investment at lhe close of
the tax year.
At lhe other end of lhe
income scale, working
parents who must pay some
one to look after their child
ten get more generous tax
resistance, if their combined
taxable incomes are under
68JXJ0. (For those with Ux
able incomes between 18.000
and S35.000. lhe new law
normally is less generous
than the old one).
According to the CPAs,
sucne of the other changes in
the law that apply lo 1976
income tax returns, are:
If you own a vacation
home you rent out fnr part of
the year, your deductions
for depreciation, mainten
ance. utilities and lhe like
now cannot exceed rental
income if you use lhe vaca
lion home yourself for more
than two weeks a year or
more than 10 percent of the
number of days it waa
rented, whichever is great
Another big break foe
most taxpayers is lhe con
tinualioa and expansion of
the general income lax
credit. I^st year, the credit
waa P0 foe esch taxpayer
ind dependent. That has
been raised to the greater of
S35 or two percent of the
first 19.000 of taxable in
come. In other words, a
maximum credit of IIHJ for
those with incomes of al
least 19.000 and fewer than
six exemptions.
For most of us. the sick
pay exclusion which protect
ed from taxation part of
wages received while off lhe
job because ol illness is
ended. The maximum week
ly sick pay exclusiuo uf (100
now is available only to
taxpayers who are under K
and who ar.- totally and
permanently disabled
In addition, the disabled
person whose annua) in­
come. including the dis
ability payments, exceeds
II5.(XM). has his weekly
benefits cut. When he reach
es the 620^00 level, the
benefits arc reduced to xero.
The provision formerly
referred to as 'retirement
income credit" has been
renamed "credit for the eld
erly'. and the rules for
claiming it have been libera
li/ed. For example, all types
ol income, such as that from
investments, can now be
partially protected from lax
alion The maximum income
base against which the IS
percent credit can be claim
ed has been increased to
$2,500 for single persons and
married couples filing jointly
where both are over 65. it's
I3.7S0.
One category of wage
earner who will be hit hard
by the new tax law is the
American citizen employed
abroad. The amount of his
earnings exeluded from tax
ation has been cut to
I15JXX). On top of that, he no
longer can claim credit for
income taxes paid to foreign
government* on the exrlud
ed amount.
Often, persons whose in
comes of leas than Ib.OU)
make them ebgibie for lhe
earned income credit, good
lor a cash refund of up lo
$400. are on welfare The
threat of losing part or all of
lhe welfare money caused
many individuals lo forego
the credit. To correct this,
the new law provides that
lhe earned income credit
does not affect a person's
eligibility for federally aaais
led welfare.
The CPA group also
points out that the new tax
law increases the minimum
standard deduction or low
income allowance from
•1.600 to 11.700 for single
persons and from $1,900 to
$2,100 for married persons

filing a joint return.
In aa effort u&gt; amplify tax
preparation far taxpayers
who do their own returns,
the new law has eut the 12
lax tables formerly in use to
only four. The new tables
can be used far taxable
income up to $20X100 and are
applicable whether you
itemise or lake the standard
deduction. The term 'simpii
ficalioo* is misleadiag in this
iaataace. however, amee the
reduction in the nxmber of
taUes means the taxpayer
must do more of his own
arithmetic.
The Michigan Asocial ion
of CPAs suggests, however,
that as in lhe past, if your
income is about average and
you had no unusual financial
transactions (home pur­
chase. inheritance, divorce,
etc.) during the year you
should be able to prepare
your own tax return.

The Pattoks went lo the

to the ball at the National

While the inauguration

The Wellmans Urged Not To
Quit Because of PBB Problems
The Robert Wellmans of
1375 Wall lake Road are
among the many Barry
County and other Michigan
dairymen who are awaiting
to hear the results of their
test* from Dr. Irving Selikoffs research team.
Health problem* ap
parently traceable to PBB
exposure have been confirm
ed In a limited number of
farmer families and others
by Dr. Selikoff* team, but
the Wellmans have reeieved
their result*.
Dr. Selikoff ha* cautioned
that no general conclusion*
about PBB* possible ad
verse effect* on the health of
Michigan's nine million peo
pie could be drawn yet from
this prelimiuaiy it-search.
Dr. Donald P. Wallach of
9679 Sterling Rnad. Rich
land, has written Hob and
Margaret Wellman because
of something you said to me
about quitting."
Dr. Wallach wrote;
"I realize full wed that
nobody who hss not owned a
farm, and been directly in­
vnfved in the PBB problem
can ever really know whai it
is like. I can well imagine,
however, your feelings of
belplrsvnriv the anxieties
you have had..
“1 rvalue that aa every
day jr re by with thia matter
unresolved, there are strong
feelings that the best thing
you can do is run away from
the whole thing. But if you
do this, you not only lore
everything, and do so at the
point where there is an
increasing prospect that at
least some of the material
damage will be restored to
you. but you also do not
serve another cause in which
1 have a passionate belief,
that of simple justice.
"I also believe that unless
justice is constantly fought
for. and achieved; the guilty
punished, the innocent
freed, compensation paid for
damage done, then we de
•rend into ■ long night of
barbarism in which there it
no hope for anyone.
Dr. Wallach cited famous
ease* of historical import
ance in which there was a
long battle for justice.
"People have fought foe
right in other way*. In
England during WW II a
certain lady McRoberts had
three sou. one in each of the
service*. In one week, all
three sou were killed, a
blow from which few people
might eawy recover. Lady
McRoberts dipped into her

family resource* and came
up with enough money to
huy a bomber which sh*
christened 'McRobert* Re
ply'. If !t were not for people
like this. England could well
have lost the war. lady
McRoberts, in otherwords,
did not quit.
“I do not for a moment
believe that Mrs. Robert
Wellman is a quilter either.
I first met you in a little
town hall in Fowlerville and
I was most impressed then
with the quiet eloquence
with which you told Senator
Welborn what had happened
to you and your farm.
“I have since seen you at
meeting* in (anting (the
bearing* before Dale Ball)
and at Gary Schenks meet
ing*. And it is because of
you. and other* like you, and
your persistence in the fare
of terrible burden* and ad
vereiiy. and the stalling of
our opponent*, that we ar*
going to win. and justice is
going to be done. I implore
you. do not give up now.

"I want to dore with what
I* foe (iiJ one at the most
beautiful prayers in the En­
glish language. I im not a
religious man; I present it aa

thoroughly finished,

"When this is over, 1 shall
ever regard it as a personal
privilege to have been of
some service. to you and th*
other* who have been the
victim* of th* ro*t episode

Wallach concluded.

To the Editor:
Recently our previous *ec
ret ary of stale, hi* chief
negotiator, and their count
erpartx in Panama met in
Panama to discuss a new
treaty a treaty that will rob
u» of our voverirgnity over
the canal zone
The media pundit* have
said the canal is nothing but
occupied territory and that
the U.S. actually stole thr
property the canal was built
on. Nothing could be further
from the truth.
In fact, after paying 10
million to Panama. 25 million
to indemnify Colombia. 10
million to the French corn
pony that began the canal,
two hundred fifty thnevand
per year for lease which has
been raised repeatedly over
the years and now stand* at
over two million three hun
dm! thousand dollar* an
nually. rcrompenw fur all
the privately owned proper
ty on which the eanal was
built plu* defense and up
keep of the eanal brings the
U-SL total investment to
over six billion dollars'
Which is anything but steal
ing.
Another concern we mini
have about the eanal is its
strategic location and im
poetam-e to U4». shipping.
Recently in a mx m-mth
period 70 percent of all tbe
ship* that used thr eanal
were of U.S. origin. In
addition, one must look al a
map to really appreciate the
absolute necessity of «&gt;ur
control over the canal.
If a ship left New York
sailing for San Francisco and
used the canal it would
travel approximately 5..'KX)
miles. However, if the same
ship was not al)ow«-d to use
the canal and had Io sail
around South America it
would travel 1.1.000 mile*, an
additional 7.700 miles.
Thr Panama Canal is far
more important to the U.S.
than popular opunion die
late*. If President Carter
follows the same qe*l tunable
attitude towards the canal
as hi* predecessor* we may
give our investment away,
an investment that cost
more than the Alaskan Pur

Antique Planes
BY D4CK TYREE
Tbe Hastings Airport is
blessed with several sir
planes belonging to area
residents that carry tbe
distinction of being antique
aircraft. According to the
rules of registration, air
planes are classified aa anti
Xie on their 30th birthday.
irplanea reaching this
maturity are often found to
be in better general condi
lion than when they were
new. The reason for this is
simple-airplanes are main
tained strictly to FAA stan
dards if they are to continue
being sanctioned aa air­
worthy.
Antique airplane buffs are
dedicated enthusiasts who
revel in the restoration,
maintenance, and flying of
aircraft spawned in a bygone
era. There pilots thoroughly
enjoy the challenges of pilot­
ing and mastering those
flying machines obsdeted by
modern technology. The
antiques do demand a skill
and touch of piloting not
required by their modern
counterpart. In fact, the dif­
ference is so acute that a
close unspoken bond is

never mastered anything
but aircraft equipped with a
trlcyele landing gear could
benefit by learning the tail­
dragger techniques. (A tail­
dragger pilot can transition
to tricycle gear with no
problems but it doesn't work
the other way.)
I always get a kick out of
hearing youngsters and old­
sters alike react to the
covering on fabric covered
aircraft. Il generally goes
like this. "Gee, this thing's
covered with canvas.'' That
is an honest but inaxurste
appraisal of aircraft fabric.
Fabric covered does not
mean lack of strength or
durability. In its element,

airplane will bold ha own

Rotariaas to Hear

Cedar Poiat Progress
H. Joaeph Pratt, execu­
tive director of Battle Creek
Unlimited, wfll be the speak
er at tbe Monday. Feb. 14th
meeting of the Hastings
Rotary Club.
Ken Radanl, program
chairman for tbe meeting of
that dale, says Pratt has
been invited to give m
update oo the Cedar Point
project planned for Battle
Creek.
Just last week 3rd Dis­
trict Congressman Garry
Brown announced that the
Department of Defense, the
Department of the Army,
and the Department of the
Navy had taken final action
to release the property at
Fort Custer needed by tbe
City of Battle Creek to
complete the laadtraasfer
transaction for the Cedar

Containers Asks O.K. to
lo devices installed in parti
■ipating homes and bus!
nrsses The devices would
turn lhe designated applian
res off or on foe varying
lengths of lime. Thia system
is already being tested with
good results in Vermont.
In the program involving
time of day rates, two sets
of rales have been develop
cd based on different no
peak hours. With one set of
rates, based oo the present
schedule of „n peak hours,
lhe residential customer
would pay H.5 rents per
kikiwatthour (kWh) for on
peak usage and 2.5 rents per
kWh for off peak usage. This
compares with a general
average of 4 rents per kWh
now paid by residential cus
tomers regardless of when
they use the energy. The
on peak hours represent
evening hours during the
winter months and daytime
hours during the summer
months.
The second set of reaiden
liai time of day rales are
based on a day night con
rept for all months of tbe
year During lhe day or on
peak hours ‘ft a.m. 9 p.m.),
thr residential customer
would pay 4.8 rents per kWh
for his usage. The nighttime
charge for usage would be
2.4 rents per kWh.
In all cases, all Saturday
and Sunday usage is consid­
ered off peak and charged al
the lower rate.
Time of day rales for
small commercial and in
dust rial customers have also
hern developed in a similar
manner and are pari of tbe
proposed program.
"After two years, change,
in consumption patterns and
living styles will be evident.
These will help determine
the impact such rates might
have on the utility's system
if all customers used them.
Jefferson said.
Tbe experiment with star
age heating systems in ten
residences would be pat
lerned after a system cur
renlly in use in many Euro
pean countries.
Tbe storage systems use
ceramic bnrks heated elec
trirally al night with lower
rest electricity. They give
off beat during lhe day
through thermostatically
controlled distribution.
"Right now. high equip
men I costs of (3.200 to
(3.600 for a residence crith
1.200 square feet are the
main drawback of such *y»
terns," Jefferson said, but
the demonstration may help
to find ways to reduce the
coals.
Storage heating would be
tested during the 1977-78
and 1978 79 heating seasons.
Consumers Power has com
pk *ed laboratory tests of
th devices and will also
study any new systems be
ing developed.
Tbe Interruptible service
rate for large commercial
and industrial customers
would cut their "demand
charge" in half. High eon
sumption customers are
charged for lhe total electri­
city used each month and
also pay a charge based on
their highest demand in My
15-minule period during the
month.
The interruptible service
rate would allow Consumers
Power to cut service for
selected electric uses for up
to 14 hours per day and 800
hours per year.
"Certain
pieces
of
machinery ran be equipped

so that their electric use is
interrupted when a pre
determined peak demand is
approaching or is reached."
Jefferson explained.
"Tbe purpose of this rate
is to promote more economic
use of available generation
supply by shedding electri
rat load in peak times, by
lessening the need to pur
chase higher priced power
from other utilities, by re­
ducing the need to start up
additional generation and by
improving supply rdiabi
lily." he said.
C'cMumcrs Power would
•pend (9UO.OOO to imple
ment lhe timeoiday and
storage heating rate pro
grams and (.'100,000 for the
load control program. Other
internal costs would also be
incurred.
While these programs are
conducted. Jefferson said,
the utility would keep
abrcnst of other rate and
peak load experiments and
investigate new equipment.
For example, he said,
lime-of-day meters for
homes cost about (155. cum
pared to (20.80 for a stand­
ard meter. "Obviously, a
systemwide installation in­
volving more than 1.2 mil­
lion customers would re­
quire a major expenditure."
he said. The electric utility
industry and its suppliers
are trying to develop less
expensive metering equip­
ment and methods.
The programs proposed
today respond to Public
Service Commission direc­
tives to conduct such experi­
ments.
Jefferson pointed out that
Consumers Power has had a
form of timeof-day demand
pricing for Uigr industrial
and cummerrial customers
for 40 years. These cncour
age off peak use.
Since April of last year, in
accord with a Commission
order, the utility is also
charging less to large com­
mercial and industrial cus­
tomer* for all kilowallhour*
used during off peak hours.
These hours vary according
to winter or summer
months.

problem*. It was believed
that motne* generated by
the camp and pool would not
equal coats and as a result
the camp and pool were not
to be opened.
Community concern rail

A board al 12 citizen*,

of the community, was ap
pointed to oversee the *um

the board was to hire Stu

Secondly, the name of the
facility wa* changed from
t he 4H Camp and Pool to the
Harry County Community
Camp and Pool. Thi* was
done to indicate that the
camp and pool are for the

Lost Book*

librarian Eileen Oehler of
the Hastings Public library
report* that lhe Library
Hoard members have adopt­
ed a policy that a borrower
whe has lost or has an
irreparably damaged book
shall he "fined an appropri
air amount to partially off
set the cost of the book and
its pmcessing as determined
by the librarian. fn no rase
does the borrower thereby
purrhase lhe book."
librarian Oehler said this
has long been lhe policy of
the library, and is generally
the policy of public libraries
in most places, although
some do have a different
policy.
Ms. Oehler explained that
litrtaiirs assess a penally
that will help pay some of
the costs of buying a new
copy of the same book, if
that can and should be done.
She said assessing thr
money penalty is a last
resort. The Hastings Li­
brary urges patrons to at
tempt to find lost hooks, and
have a 30 day “hold" period
during which no additional
overdue fines are levied
while attempts arr made to
locate books.
"Only if nothing else can
be done to retrieve the
library’s already processed
ropy must the librarian «et
tie far the undesirable al
tentative of accepting some
rras.&gt;oaNr money penalty in
lieu of get ting hack the h™A.

It's a good thing February
is a short month, because
even though its days are
getting longer. It will prob­
ably have the coldest weath­

Su predicts University of
Michigan astronomer Hazel
M. Losh, who calls this

transition between the long
bleak January and March's

December."
Explaining February's
constellations, the U-M
astronomer says: although
earthly bears may hibernate
through this month, the
celestial bears Ursa Major
and Ursa Minor will be
visible ia the skies.
"Climbing above the
northeastern horizon just
after sunset, the Big Bear
rises higher and higher to­
ward the xenith as the
evening progresses." says
Losh. “By late evening, the
Bear appears high in the
undignified position: lying

stars) stretched upward."
A semicircle of faint stars
represents lhe Big Bear's
nose, and seven bright stars
within the constellation form
the Big Dipp sr, also known

bend of the Dipper handle,
are of particular interesl."
Losh says. "Mizar. the

brighter of the two, wa* the
first visual double star dis­
covered through the tele­
scope in 1650. But the spec
trograph shows that each of
these two components and
Alcor arr also double stars,
so Mixar and Alror really
represent six stars."
"The distances of the Dip­
per stars arc about 72 light
years." she adds. “That
means we are looking al this
group the way it was in the
early 1900's."
Ix&gt;sh note* that “the Leas­
er Bear, or Little Dipper has
the North Star at the end of
it* handle. The North Star is

North Celestial Pole, about
which the whole sky seems
lo turn."
Rising in the northeast
and closely associated with
the Big Bear is Bootes, the
giant Bear Driver. "This is
one of the oldest recorded
constellation*, and repre­
sent* a mighty man in a

Ixish. "In one hand he hold*

BY STAN CLANTON
MuriMer
CtanRMChriat

On one occasion Jesus visited two of his friends.
Mary and Martha. Martha was very busy and
di s t roc ted wiih het serving when she noticed that her
sister was sitting at Jesus' feat listening as he taught.
When Martha complained to Jesus that Mery should
be helping her serve. Jesus replied. 'Martha, Martha,
thou art anxious and troubled about many things; but
one thing is needful; for Mary hath chosen rhe good
pan. which shall not be taken away from her" I Luke
1038 411.
There are many things today that can distract us
and take us away from lhe feet of Jesus, ft’s easy to
be like Martha and become anxious and troubled, and
be diverted from that which should have real priority.
The Lord also included this thought in the parable of
the sower. He said that some would hear the word of
Cod. but the "cares of tbe world, and the
deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things
entering in. choke the word, and it becomes
unfruitful” (Mark 4:19).
The world wiN pass away, but the one who does
the will ol God wiN abide forever (I John 2:17). That’s
why listening to Jesus should be our main concern.

Lost Learning Time?

Serial Security AgasM

Hastings School District taxpayers will pay
their full share of taxes this year
And their children will get 5% loss
education for the money
The school district so far has lost nine days
school time this year Because Michigan law
says that school time lost due to acts of
God docs not have to be made up, the days
are gone But God is not the only one to
blame. The teachers, by democratic process
democratic except that the public had
nothing to say on ill unilaterally decided that
no effort would be made to make up the lost
time
In a letter to the administration, the
Hastings Education Assoctabori explained
that th* t.Mchers rnold make up the lost time
wnhm our present framework
In other
words, without scheduling additional class
room hours or ilays
What the teachers are saying is that they
can covet the full year s educational material
m 9 less days (5'v of the school year! than
was scheduled
The logical conclusion is that if the
teachers wanted to. a full year s educational
work could be taught in less than the
presently scheduled 180 days of six hours
each If that &lt;s the case then the school year
or school day n longer than necessary And if
that also, is the case then school time could
be shortened by E% lot more), everyone's
■alary cut proportionally, and the taxpayers
would still be getting the same qual.ty
education for the.r children, for less costl
Although togr*-al. we don't think the above
scenario is accurate If a week’s worth of
school is lost, it is time stolen from our
children. Actually, they forget some during
the week, and it would take more than a
week to catch up So they've lost two ways.
Wnat the teachers were really saying in
their decision not to make up the lost time is
that they ate unwiMmg to add extra days or
hours later for the sake of the children If
that's the case let them say so directly, not
hide it in language like
all the other
alternatives we discussed to make up the
time lost were less desirable educational
Three aspects of the recent situation
surprise even dismay us as parents and
citizens
The teachers seem to be uninterested in

insuring that students be compensated edu­
cationally lor the lost time. This should cast
doubt on claims that teachers are "professionais". more interested in education than
themselves
The school board appears to have no
control over the situation Although state law
says the time does not have to be made up. it
does not say that the lost time cannot be
made up This is a question which should bo
decided by the board and the community,
not just the teachers.
The question never even arose at the last
school board meeting School officials will
say privately that they have no power, once
lire Havluig* Education Assucialiun lie*
decreed that the teachers will not work extra.
Who runs the schools? What has happen­
ed to the idea of local control? If the HEA is
running our schools, let’s just elect their
officers to thv school board, and dispense
with the charade. If the Michigan Education
Association (the largest teacher union)
actually controls education in the state, it's
time the people put an end to it.
If the local union contract gives the HEA
too much power, then the curbing of that
power should be priority Number One when
negotiations begin on a new contract. What
good is a democratically-elected school
board which has no authority?
Parents seemed to be i tile concerned
over the damage which may have been done
to their children's education. Superintendent
Richard Guenther said that the reactions he
received were concerned with possible loss
of vacation lime in the spring or at the end
of the year, not loss to children's education.
Don't parents think the loss of the week
hurt? Don't they care?
Maybe parents feel like school is just a
tedious job for their kids, or a baby sitter. If
parents fed this way. we can't expect the
children to get the most out of school. And if
parents fed this way. we can hardly expect
teachers to take their jobs more seriously.
Hastings is lucky to have a fine school
system for a relatively small school district.
But the lock of professionalism among the
teachers, and the evident apathy of parents
and citizens, give us cause to worry.
The whole incident should give us much to

It is easy for a person who
refuses to identify himself to
raise doubts on this or any
issue by thv use of innuen
docs, rumors, half truths,
hearsay and allegations.
Emotion rather than sub

A family home provides
shelter in more ways than
one. It protects us not only
from the elements but also
from the tax collector. Il is
almix.l a rule of thumb that
when you buy a home of
your own you give up the
standard deduction; the de
ductions brought by the
house usually make itemiz
ing so much more profitable.
While it is true that the
Tax Reform Act of 1976
tightened up on some of the
tax benefits of home owner­
ship notably deduction the
cost of maintaining an office
in the home there are still
plenty of "goodies” left.
Chief of these continue to
be the deductions you get
for real estate taxis and
interest paid on the mort­
gage. Those were not affect ■
ed by the Tax Reform Act.
Regarding the squeeze on
offices-in-thc-homc. Con­
gress merely pul the official
stamp on a policy toward
which Internal Revenue Ser­
vice and the courts have
been moving for several
years. As the law stands
now, for an employee Io gel
an office in the home deduc­
tion. the space used for that
purpose must be used for no
other, and the maintenance
of a workroom at home must
be solely for the employer's
convenience, not the tax­
payer's.
In the opinion of many tax
experts, for employees this
deduction
is
virtually
eliminated.
If you operate a business
or profession out of your
home, that's another story.
For you the deduction is still
very much alive, although in
determining what portion of
household maintenance and
depreciation costs can be

attribute!* to tne business
you will have to be more
discriminatory. A room used
part of the time for personal
purposes now must be ex'eluded.
Use of a separate struc
tun- on your property will
make it easier to establish
(hat the space is reserved
strictly for business.
However, when it tomes
to the storage of inventory,
the space may be used for
non business purposes part
of the lime, with the costs of
maintaining it pro rated be­
tween business and nonhusiness usage. That applies
only if the home is the sole
fixed location for the busi­
ness.
Business use of the home
aside, what other benefits
docs the structure provide?
One is that capital expend!
lures for mediral purposes
surh as an air conditioning
system for an asthmatic, or
an elevator for a cardiac
patient, may be deductible
as a medical expense. Any
value the improvement may
add to your house, though,
must be excluded from this
deduction.
The CPA group also
points out that if you ehang­
ed y&lt;»ur place of residence in
1976 because of a change tn
your place of employment,
you may be allowed to
ileduct many of the costs
connected with the move:
not only moving van. but up
to a thousand dollars of
pre move househunting and
temporary living expenses
and as much as $2,500 for
certain costs incurred in
selling the old place and
buying or renting the new
one. Also, the move must
have been al least fifty
miles.

If you arc the fortunate
owner of a second home -a
vacation cottage which you
rent out part of the time,
let's say- there are new rules
here, too, and they apply to
1976 tax returns. You can
now deduct expenses con­
nected with the rental only
to the extent that gross
rental income exceeds the
deductions you would be
able to take even if the
house were not rented.
For example, if your rent­
al income is $500, your taxes
and interest costs are 1300.
and other expenses such as
heating, maintenance, and
depreciation are $1,000. you
arc allowed to deduct only
the $300 of inlotest and
taxes plus $200 of the other
expenses.
The only way to deduct all
the expenses is by using the
house yourself no more than
14 day* during the year or
ten percent of the time it is
rented out. whichever is
greater. That makes it ar.
ordinary business invest­
ment. qualifying for the
usual business deductions.
A warning here from the
CPA Association though:
the cottage must earn a
profit at least two years out
of every live or IRS may
decide it's a hobby rather
than a true investment.

Kineman said if the weather
holds off. all the roads
should have the drifts push
ed back by the end of the
week. Some roads were still
plugged, but no one was
isolated.
Engineer Kineman esti
mated that the total cost of
the storm would be around
$300,000. including the cost
of the private contractor*.
Kineman said he and
members of the Road Com'
mission were hoping there
would be some reimburse­
ment for the heavy addition­
al expenses caused by the
storm, but said “We may
have to live with it" meaning
the extra expense.
The Michigan Association
of Counties has asked Gov.
William G. Milliken to de­
ciare Barry and 14 other
Michigan counties as “dis
aster areas." Gov. Milliken
on Feb. 3 had declared the
counties as "snow emergen­
cy areas" and asked Prerideni Carter for a similar
designation. Il was promptly
granted.
Executive Director A.
Barry McGuire of the coun­
ties' association said the
initial request for federal
assistance in the snow enter
gene/ fell short of the needs
which Janaury 26-31 spawn-

McGuire asked the gover­
nor to assist county road
commissions, whose snow
removal budget* have al
ready been depleted, point­
ing out that snow removal
costs
over
budgeted
amounts arc reimbursable.

She taught for one year in

She was appointed Regis­

If the 12 hanger space*
were kept rented at $60 a

Cusack figured.

Developer Seeks to Build

Housing for Elderly Here
A lonsing developer is
interested in establishing
multi family housing in
Hasting*, primarily for the
elderly, and proposed to the
city counril that the proper
ty owned hy the municipa
lily al the northeast end of
the fairground* might be
ideal.
Gary R. Rrydges. who
said he represents the
developer, said a require
ment for elderly housing is
that it be within a quarter of
a mile of a full service gro
eery store. “Because Hast
mg* ha&lt; but two such gro
eerie*, this necessarily limit*
the number of potential
sites."
lirydges said the only
vacant site of sufficient sire
is the city's property al the
fairgrounds. He said they
would be interested in pur
ciiase, or land trade.
City Atty. Richard Shaw
said the city's land, said tn
be about a block at Market
and Slate, couldn't be sold.
When it eeased being used
as the fairgrounds, it would
revert to the original owners
or heir*.
Rrydges also said an al
ternsthe would be to nego­

tiate on trade of lands. If a
suitable site could be found
to relocate the fairground*,
he proposed a trade plus
enough cash Io rebuild the
necessary building* to house
the fair.
Such a proposal, he said,
would assure continuance of
the county fair and needed
housing for the elderly.
Another alternative is ac
quiring several adjoining
lots, raring th* house* to
provide a building site. Ixrts
on the north side of West
Mill Street, adjoining Tyden
Park, might be suitable, but

expensive.
The net result. Brydgr*
said, is that “we really have
not fot nd a suitable building
site for an eMerly develop
ment. We believe that there
is a strong nwd and good
potential market for elderly
housing in Hastings. 1 am
sure the city must recognize
this need as well, in that
regard. I would welcome
your comments and - uggc*
lions regarding the altcrna
live* or any other options
that you feel might be
available to us."

Business Helping Itself

Hardly A Sinister Plot
H continue* io amaze u» that *o.ne local
rtnudent* see the Chamber of Commerce'*
support for the downtown development
program as some kind of smiste* plot to put
one over on the taipayers
They seem to have forgotten that the main
taxpayer* tn the present busine** district,
and adjoining areas zoned for business
purpose*, arc primarily businessmen.
The proposal should be viewed a* an effort
to provide local business with an agency by
which it can improve itself, and thereby
improve the town and the local tax base
If ndeed. local business and the chamber
arc engaged m a sinister clandestine action,
then tiusmess should be eradicated from
Hastings Let's keep that evJ stuff some­
where else like 28th St. for example
it * so absurd it would be funny, we re not
the opponent* of the development district so
fanatically serious
But they may have their way If indeed,
they do seek to destroy local business, one
smalt step would be to block the develop­
ment district Make it a* fiard as possible for
businessmen to survive in this competitive
world Eliminate the service*, jobs and tax
contributions of local business Let adjoining
towns and counties have the business -our
resident* won t mind driving 30 mile* for the
needs.
Despite the exaggeration*, the issue ha*

not changed. Hastings through it* council
has a choree of aiding retarl business, or
hindering it. Creation of the development
authority is still no guarantee that the
business district wiB be improved. Failure to
create the authority does not mean business
■s doomed. It * just another roadblock, and
the long-range effect will be to weaken the
business district, and with ft the town.
The issutt presumably will be decided
sometime after the bearing on Fob. 28.
The representation at that hearing is likely
to be crucial to the future of the development
authority proposal. It is obvious that the
opponent* are likely to be there in force,
which is certainly their right. The council
wisely has scheduled the heating for the high
school 'ecture hail, so there should be plenty
of seat* this time.
Tbe question is-how much support is
there for the development authority? Frankly,
if there is not a good showing of business­
men and citizens to show their support, the
council would be justified in concluding that
they don't care about it.
The debate is proceeding apace. The
proposal has been wed aired; the negative
side has been and is being beard. If the
affirmatives don't come up with a strong
rebuttal Monday, the proposal is dead.

HUGH’S MUSE

Reader Prefers Soup of
Good Michigan Tomatoes
By HUGH FULLERTON
Banner Publisher
A droll local Republican reader had a few
comments regarcLng the recent "peanut
dinner which Rotanans had.
Dear MuzJer." the writer wrote, "As you
are a newcomer to our county you don't
know that Barry County was known as a
Republican county and there are some still
living, If we have to cat peanuts, so be it.
But let * make our soup of tomatoes- Michi­
gan grown, that is."
Yes. your Muser does know that Barry
was and still is known as a Republican
County. The last election proves that
More important. I think, is that Barry
was and is known as a conservative
county. And that alone makes it worth living

sympathize with the hundreds of families
who enjoy healthy outdoor recreation, and
seek only a place to do it. Without question.
Barry County in a snowy winter tike thi* one
is ideal snowmobile country.
But this has to be balanced against tbe
safety aspect, both to avoid endangering
human life, and to protect the county from
poss'blc lawsuits. Personally, wo feel that the
personal danger aspect is far more important
than lawsuit* We have lawyer* and in­
surance companies to protect the county
from catastrophic loss But no one can
reverse an accidental death
Il is undeniably true that snowmobiles
have been using county road* in violation of
the law. It is not hard to find road* lined with
snowmobile track*, which have to go onto
the slioulrfor and even the pavement because
of rough terrain on the right of-wey.
Thoughtful snowmobile's can be a* safe
or safer than thoughtful driver* With any
vehicle, it's the thoughtless few that can
endanger all of us.
w-One recent incident illustrates this fact.
Within ju*t a couple mile* of Hastings, a
snowmobile was observed on a county road,
pulling a couple sled* loaded with small
children. The time of day was nearly dusk,
and visibility was limited.
The driver probably felt ho was being safe.
But a car operating well below tbe speed
limit might easily have run into the snow­
mobile or sleds. This particular road had
mounds of snow, and the snowmobile driver
would have had trouble getting out of the
way in a hurry
This r* the sort of problem our road
commission must face, because it is respon­
sible for the use of county roads. There
should be a compromise position, which wil
open needed areas to snowmobilers. without
unduly endangering the lives of snowmobilers or motorist*

What are you working for?
One recent study says that you spend
more hour* working to pay' taxes than khy
ether item
.
.
In the typical eight-hour day. the average
worker kibors 2 hour* 39 minutes to pay hi*
taxes, including 1 hour 41 minutes for the
federal government and 58 minute* for state
and local taxes
By contrast, he or she works 1 hour 32
nunutes to pay for housing and household
operation, the next largest item, and 1 hour 5
minute* for food and drink Everything else
was far less
Maybe the question should be not what
you're working for, but who you're working
for?

The Banner and your Muser have refrained
from taking s&gt;des in tbe snowmobile road
commission skirmish for one good reasonneither side is overwhelmingly right or
wrong, ana we don't know what would be
the best solution lor the majority.
Although we don't own a rnowmobile. we

To protect a home properly more than one
timer should be used. When purchasing a
timing devise, a check should be made to
insure the item is Underwriter* Laboratories
approved. It is also recommended that a
bathroom light be left on ail night.
With the broad application of air-condi­
tioning in homes, burglars have learned to
listen for the sound of an air-coociioner to
determine if the home is occupied on warm
nights.
tf a buifgar tees a light on but does not
hear the tu conditioner running, he may still
attempt a break-in. Therefore, a timing
device also should be considered to operate

Inproper Installatkm*
Citue Fire* and Death*
The high price of heating
and the subsequent revival
of woodburning stoves ha*
brought a warning from the
Energy Administration • at
least 12 person* have died in
accidents related to wood­
burning stoves and fireplac
e» this winter.
Hasting* Fire Chief Don­
ald Sothard reported three
of the last four fire* here
were caused by improper
installation.
Most accidents are due to
people's negligence or inex­
perience. according to Tom
Heck, wood energy specia­
list with the Energy Ad
ministration of the Michigan
Department of Commerce.
The Energy AdminiMra
lion recommend* people
take lhe following prccau
lions to insure the safety,
economy and enjoyment of
woodburning stoves and
fireplaces.
WOOOBIRNING STOVES
1. Be sure the stove pipe is
properly insulated.
Insulated meta) stove­
pipe* are expensive. hut any
move* to economize here
may be dangerous. Ceilings
and wall* may easily become
ignited by a poorly or noninsulatcd stovepipe.
2. A non coni bu Mi Me ma­
lerial below the Move is a
muM.
Some wood Move* can be
purchased with a metal re
fiector cm which the Move
rrM*. bricks and Mon** can
wrvr the same purpose.
3. DiManee of the Move
from walla and drape* i*
critical. Most fire rode* re­
quire 18-20 inches between
lhe Move and the wall.
4. Proper ventilating of
smoke and fume* is im­

portant.
Make sure that the chim­
ney or Movepip, is at least
two feet above the highest
point on the roof.
5. Do no! neglect to close
the burning chamber door.
Not only does an open
door cause the stove to heal
improperly, hut it is also a
fire hazard.
FIREPLACES
1. If you don't know how
to install a fireplace, have it
done by a qualified masnn.
There are do-it-yourself fire
place*, a* there are wood
Move*, hut the same pre­
caution* apply.
2. Keep a poker, shovel,
and brush tSrooml readily
available. Uing handles on
these tools will prevent sing­
ed knuckles and finger*.
1 Every fa!!, check lhe
chimney for debris or
crenwMr build up that could
cause a chimney fire.
4. Do not attempt to stack
paper and wood too high.
(Ince it Mart* burning, the
woodMack may shift and
throw burning debris on’o
the floor.
5. Beware of wood, such a*
pine, that contain resins.
When lhe resins arc heated,
they can explode. If the
fireplace screen is open, the
carpet or family member*
could be burned.
6. Keep combustible ma­
terial away from the front of
the fireplace. Heal radiating
from the fire could cause
ignition.
7. Never use kerosene,
gasoline, etc. to Mart a fire;
paper and kindling wood are
adequate.
8. Maintain a small, port­
able fire extinguisher within
easy reach.

9. If your fuel wood re­
quire* cutting, chopping or
splitting, know how, and
what you arc going to do
before you do it.

IS GOD REAL?
by DUANE JONES. Minister.
Hastings Church of Christ
The argument of the ages can be con­
densed to the simple question. 'Did man
make God. or did God make man?"
The first four words of the Scripture are.
"In lhe beginning God..." The Bible presents
God as a fact. Men have denied Him and
opposed Him from the beginning, but the
evidence proves beyond a doubt that God Is
real.
Life itself is proof ol God's existence. How
can we account for the difference between a
iifdess corpse and a vibrant being? What is
lhai essential ingredient that makes the
difference, and how is it supplied? The
evolutionist suggest* that a series of cosmic
accidents, spaced a* needed throughout a
hrmtles* number of years, ha* changed the
Irfeiesa ground into living creature*. The
Bible speaks of a loving creator breathing kfe
into Hto creation. (Gen. 1 25-2:7).
Which is more reasonable, the thought of
a living being producing other living being*,
or a sene* of accident* and innumerable
misting Bnka resulting in man? One is
repeated constantly In the process of birth,
fhe other he* not been duplicated at til.
despite a hundred yeen of intense scientific
effortl
We know God is reel because of the order
of things. A bask law of science say* that a
system left tfr.’T'J1. beet ai— ibrn-.i iln n
lhe earth remains in its orbit. Bird* sum
through the aii without drifting into space.
The tide* dependably ebb and flow. Things

continue as God established them. There to
always perfect order until men interfere*.
Every need uf man is built into the world
God has pieced Him in. Nothing Is lacking
physically, spiritual, mentaty or emotional­
ly. It only remains for mon to recognize the
existence of their loving Creator. He loves us
enough not to force Himeotf upon us. He
gives us a free vril. even though we can turn
□gainst Him. He cares enough that He aven
came and died for us. This greet love to atoo a
proof of the reality of God.
Intuitively we know there to a real God.
The psalmist said, "My soul thirst* for the
Irving God." When God made us He mode us
with a built in need for feSowship with Him.
Wc long for our heavenly Father. There to an
empty place in our life until wo admit the
existence of God and submit to His w«.
To me. the best evidence of God's
existence is the example of those who
bdieve in Him. Notice the people of the
Bible. Who is more secure than David? Who
can face the difficulties ol Me better than
Daniel? Who has more drive, more purpose
than Paul? look around you. You wM see
that those who realty "have H together" are
those believing and trusting the God of the
Bible. He to real. He to abv*. Ho to active in
our lives.

The money contributed
will eventually be sent to
Catholic Relief Services, the
official American Catholic
agency for. relief and de­
velopment overseas respon­
sible for distributing the
funds. The annual Kalama­
zoo Diocesan Services Ap­
peal (KDSA) also provides
fund* every year to support
the work of CRS. but the
Operation Rice Bowl collec­
tion is a separate volun­
tary collection aside from
lhe KDSA program which
funds all diocesan projects

and service* in a yearly
one-lime appeal. Recent na­
tural disasters in many parts
of lhe world have created
lhe need for an added pro­
gram like Operation Rice
Buwl to care for lhe needs of
the million* of victims of
these disasters.
According to Father
Sears, “the money collected
for Operation Rice Bowl is
only one-third of the whole
concept. Prayer and sacri­
fice are really lhe most
important twothirds."

All men desire freedom Through the centuries
men have fought for freedom, prayed for freedom,
and died for freedom. Freedom to a precious word to
every American. A great price haa been paid for the
freedom our country enjoy*.
The greet Bible word "redemption" involves the
idea of freedom. When one has bean redeemed, he
has been art free by moons af a payment of a ransom.
Redemption denote* th* idea of purchasing a stove
with a view toward his freedom.
Before obeying Christ one to a servant of tin
(Roman* 6:17-181. Since the wages of tin to death
(Roman* 3:231, tinners are sieves doomed to death.
But good nrrwsl A ransom has been paid! Tbe ransom
paid was the life of Christ "Ye wore redeemed, not
with corruptible thing*, with silver or gold...but »-rith
precious blood...oven the blood of Christ" (I Peter
1:18-19). Jesus came to grvs hto fife as a ransom for
many (Matthew 2028), ami "we hove our redemption
through his blood" (Epheeiana 1:7).
Where redemption occurs there to the thought of
effort. Freedom cMn’t come free. God paid a greet
price tot it. The cross was the price paid to release the
stoves, and let the condemn'd go free- Tbenke be to
God for his unspeakable gift.

Librarian Says
By JOAN CHRISTIE
Il seems people are read
ing more I wonder if lhe
weather has anything to de
with it? l-a*t week we
checked out 189 Ixxtks al the
Freeport District library.
Thr tekeland Federation
in Grand Rapids has helped
us, so we ran supply you
with material you want and
nerd. We are purchasing
more nrw books for our
library every day.
According to the most
requested books in 150
cities, complied by the
American Ubrary Associa­
tion. our library has a very
large number of these books.
We now have a new
assistant librarian. We wel­
come Mrs. Janet Goforth to
our staff.
We would like to thank
Mr. Gibbs for lhe many fine
books, hr donated to the
library this past week.
Wr invite every one to
drop in and look around, a
book is real company in thia
cold weather.

When the Barry County
Jail added Tim Rothfua* to
its staff as a corrections
officer. it got a volunteer
chaplain in the bargain. Offi­
cer Rothfuss would probably
prefer being called the ehap
laincy and counseling co
ordinalor. because a great
emphasis in the program he
is starting al the jail ia on
lhe need for all community
resources, and all churches
in the area, to take respon
nihility for the program.
In hi* talk before tbe
Sarah Circle
telheron
Women's Missionary League
last week. Chaplain Roth
fuss emphasized that lhe
most important ingredient
for success is lhe active
involvement of area church­
es - “more than just saying
'Amen' to the efforts of lhe
clergy and the few who see
this as part of their ministry.
In order for a chaplaincy
program lo be of real bene
fit. it must include the lay
involvement of lhe religious
community. If we do not see
ourselves as involved in this
vital mission IT IS BOUND
TO FAIL'
“Originally, it was the
church and only the church
that wa* concerned about
prisoners. In thr 20th cen­
tury. lhe church let go its
involvement in favor of al­
low ing the slate lo do its job
for them. Il ha* failed. They
have invited us back. Are we
going to fail them? Or are we
going to rediscover that this
is really what the church is
all about? Jesus knew his
mission. He share* it now
with u*. a* members of his
fkxly lhe church.”

reduction.
With his graduation from

At this time, the total cost
of the project stands at
$1,277,740. The total cost
represents $1,121,000 of con­
struction and remodeling
costs and $161,000 equip­
ment costs. Included in the
construction and remodeling
is: II a new emergency
room. 2) a new intensive
care unit, 31 a new pediatrics
floor, 41 expanded x-ray ser­
vices. 5) remodeled mater­
nity area. 6) remodeled sur­
gery area, and 71 other
minor remodeling projects
throughout the hospital. In­
cluded in the equipment cost
is $100,000 fur an additional
diagnostk x-ray room. The
remainder of the equipment,
expense will be for addition­
al equipment for the expand

’The hospital feels it is
mandatory to raise the
$100,000 in order to com­
plete the project. If the
hospital does not raise the
$100,000, it will have to take
a hard look at the project as
it now stands and find ways
to reduce patient services.
The hospital hopes to start

Since the first small
gatherings in the United
States 90 years ago. the Ida
of united prayer by women
around the world has inccreasingly captured the
imagination of community
groups. Today. World Day
of Prayer can lie described
as the most important
ecumenical and international
observance of the year.
Preparation for the cclc
bration is as internationally
far-reaching as the partici
pation in it. World Day of
Prayer is under the auspices
of an International Com
miltee which has designated
Church Wooten United as
the official sponsor of this
Celebration in the United
States. The worship services
are prepared each year by
women from a different part
of the world and then trans
laled and adapted to meet
the individual needs of each
participating country.
This year’s worship ser­
vice. prepared by the wo
men in the German Demo
cralic Republic, reflects
their hope that women will
“strive together to find ways
familiar and new ways for
’Love in Action’." Gudrun
Diestel of the Federal Re
public of Germany, who was
chairperson of the Inter­
national Committee for the
first eight years of its exist­
ence. expressed her concern
in these words: “Our age is
an age where great progress
age where the suffering of
people, suffering in body and
soul, has increased. World
Day of Prayer is challenging
us to discover afresh those
who may be our neighbors

we have been overlooking;
to discover those who may

our support."
The small group of women
who first initiated World
Day of Prayer in 1887 firmly
beleived that the mission
work tor which they were
responsible needed their
support in prayer as much as
in giving. Church Women
United has continued this
tradition through Inter
continental Mission, a fund
for administering the nation
wide offerings received on
World Day of Prayer.
This year church women
will translate love into art

"We wanted to raise our

"Consequently. I wanted

organization for me."
Brehm said that despite
close financial management,

Those talented young musician* from

the annual operetta" directed by Herb
Mover And each year Moyer comes up with
plenty of strong, wed trained young voices to
cast a super musical
This year’s offering. "Carousel", was
presented Thursday. Friday and Saturday to
well Nied houses at Central Auditorium The
show moved well csccpt when the cn
thunastic audience interrupted it with ap
plause which was often
It is not the intent of your Muser to write a

to be carping critics And although no
production is flawless, these kids deserve a
big hand for the great successes, not their
minor short! omings
We also can't list all the people who were
esceflent in the cast The talent and training

was evident in even the most minor roles
Suffice to say that the young folks in the
principal roles matched some of the best we
have seen in college and adult amateur
productions, and even some who made their
living on stage Both Paula Lewis and Emily
Dolan sparkled with personality and have
lovely voices Wo expected a first-rate
performance from Harvey Miles, after his
lead m "Oklahoma" last year, and he was
oven tietter this year

best acting job. and Peter Nye. in very sIkwI
appearances, showed ho has the come s
mstmet ol timing Bruce Murphy has a fine
voice and had the surprisingly difficult
straight man" role.
We could go on and on. The whole
production was beautiful, and reminds us
once again that some of this century's
prettiest music comes from this old standard
show. We’ve been humming ever since.

Locking Car Properly Makes

make sure you lock vour car doors and roll up
the windows Skilled auto thieves can start a
car in numerous ways, from hot wiring to
making then own key on the spot
Downtown parking lots can be another
problem Do not leave the ticket in the car;
an auto thief will be more than happy to pay
ycur parking fee to steal your car
For your own protection, if you have to
leave the keys, do not leave your house key
with them You could come home to find
your house burglarized
If a guarded lot is not available, park in a
welt lighted area subject to police patrol.
High visibility and the potential presence of
police are strong deterrents

SAFEGUARD AGAINST CRIME

Auto theft is a fact of our life on wheels
Since the law defines auto theft as the
iMegai taking and removing of cars, trucks,
buses and motorcycles, the chances are
good it could happen to you
Last year nearly one million automobiles
were stolen natnnwrde. enough to form a
single lane traffic jam from New York to Los
Angeles
The first preventive measure against auto
theft rs not io leave keys in the ignition or
supposedly hidden It takes only a minute to
check the glove bo* the ash trays, or under
the seat
Even when your car is at home, if you have
a garage, keep the car in it and locked. You
may think your home is your pvrate domain.
but a car m a driveway with the keys in it is
an auto thief's delight
When going to one of the shopping malls.

Te the Editor:
As members of the local
F.C.A. Chapter, we would
like to recognize Rev. Ran
dall Meta as one of our most
outstanding members be
cause of his leadership quail­
ties and time spent on
supporting our local chapter
of Fellowship of Christian
Athletes. During the last
two years. Rev. Metz has
served as secretary of our
local chapter and also has
been in charge of the loea
lions of breakfasts.
We as members of the
F.C.A. and citizens ol lhe
takewood community will
greatly miss this fine Christ­
ian gentlemen. We wish him
all the luck it&gt; his new
ministry.
Yours in Christ.

I040X. ft is much easier
than filling out the original
return because the only data
required beyond name, ad
dress, etc., is the informs
lion you are amending.
You ran save lime by not
listing penny amounts on
your lax return. Round off
sums io the nearest dollar, if
it's $5.50 or more make it
$6.00. $5.49 or less becomes
$5.00.
The CPAs suggest that
lhe most common errors
made on tax returns are
easily avoids u; mistakes in
arithmetic, using lhe wrung
tables, leaving out social
security numbers, failure of
one or both parties to sign
joint return*, etc. Proles
steal tax advisers try to
prevent such “goofs" by
giving a return one final
check just making sure lhe
arithmetic is right and no
spaces have been left vacant
by oversight.
Avoidable errors can re
suit in the inconvenience of
having your return sent
back lor refiling: and per­
haps the expense of penalty
or interest charges. Thev
could also suggest to the tax
collector that the return
probably contains more
serious errors, thus leading
to a tax audit.

By DICK TYREE
It seems that when bus!
news' is at its lowest point
something happens to spark
up the adrenalin and get
things moving again. This
winter it i« the snow! In
Barry County the snowfall
and drift ing was as severe as
I have ever seen, anywhere.
As a result. President Car­
ter designated Barry County
a national disaster area in
conjunction with several
other hard hit Michigan
counties. My plain language
interpretation is that Harry
County would be eligible for
federal funds for use in
clearing snow from our
roads. Yea. for that!
Before all that money is
released though, the wheels
of bureaucracy must lum
and in limes of disaster.
I hose wheels lum measurab­
ly faster than nonr-l. Avia­
tion plays a major role in
helping government re-*rt

early on the Sth of February,
the Hastings Airport was re­
ceiving an unusual amount
of attention from the news

wa* crowded with camera

and newsmen.
Soon more visitors arriv
cd from the Harry County

story was out. Officials from
the U.S. Arm-' Corp* of
Engineer* would soon be
arriving by helicopter to sur­
vey. fir*t hand, the damage
done to the county's trans­
portation links.
Aerial surveys of lhe
county wide area provided
convincing evidence that our
network of road* had been
devastated by lhe "Blizzard
of "77." The result wa* a
grant of federal fund* to be
u*cd for clearing our dogged
arteries of snow. In a few
day*, surface transportation
was almost back to normal

hard work from county snow

Modine Manufacturing's air
plane arrived from Toledo

this year. Their Beech King

on a training flight. Seems
as how she is working on her

On the agenda were Sen.
Harry DeMaso. whose di*

and much of Barry County.
Joseph Pratt, executive dir

ecutive v in- president of the
Battle Creek Chamber of
Commerce, and Roger
Grow, chief planner for the
Southcentral Michigan Man­

Pratt gave much of thr
presentation. which was ha*
Ically a situation report on
the Cedar Point park devel­
opment.
The opening date for the
park ha* been moved back to
May 31. 1979. Pratt said.

The “vital” item* in the
agreement between Cedar
Point. Inc. and the City uf
Battle Creek have been ac­
complished. and the city
hopes to close the land sale
to the corporation on April
22. Before then. Battle

Business Districts Must

Business districts must

the Hastings Area Chamber

that local government bud­

the years ahead. Town* that
are growing may absorb
these growing cost* with no
additional taxes on present

that do not grow will face an

development authority, he
said. If present building* are
improved and expanded, and
new business attracted, the
tax burden will be shared by
more business, he reasoned.
DeMaso gave example* of
cities in other Matos which
have used similar agencies
to rehabilitate their business
districts. He spent consider
able time telling how Miami.
Fla., had increased the tax
Iwse of it* business district
by 7ti%, built new building*,
and has nearly all its down­
town space occupied.
DeMaso said that the
state law permitting the
formation of development
authorities was written af
ter two years wa* spent
studying similar law* in
other states.
The downtown develop­
ment authority is a mean* to
give business districts the
tool* for self improvements.
DeMaso said. The senator
•aid that communities cry
for "grassroots govern­
ment.” and ask the state to
give them tools to work
with. The downtown devel­
opment program was an
effort to give local govern-,
ment those tools.
DeMaso emphasized that
a downtown devekipment
authority i* completely un

der the control of the rity
council. It* budget must be
approved hy the council, and
if it wishes to have a tax levy
(the law permit* up to 2
mills), thrt al-o must be
approved by the council.

part of the Fort Custer
Industrial Park. The city
already own* 350 acre*, but
the Cedar Point firm wanted
750 acre* for immediate and
future development.
According to statistic*
gathered hy a consulting
firm for Battle Creek Un­
limited. the new park will
draw an average daily at­
tendance of 14.HO0 people a
day the first season, for a
season total of 1.0 million.
The peak day’s attendance
the first season i* estimated
at &gt;.000.
The park will operate for
alwiut KM day* per year.
During the first season
11979) the park will employ
102 people year round, and
1.141 for the summer, accor
ding to figures from Odar
Point, Inc. The total payroll
will be an estimated
$3,453.000 thr first season,
rising to $5,400,000 by the
fifth year of operation.
Based on a study of a
theme park in Virginia, each
tax and payroll dollar spent
by the park will add $1.60 Io
the local economy. so the
Rattle (.‘reek area should
benefit by $5.6 million the
first year.

Although a substantial
number of new restaurant*

warned the Barry County
crowd against overdevelop

experience of motel* near
Disney World in Florida,
which have a low rate of
occupancy, because
here
ale too many of them.
Roger Grow, regional
planner, said that projec
tion* show that 95% of the
park's visitor* will enter
from the south, off 194 and
the connecting freeway sys
tern. Barry County ean bene
fit from the visitors, but it
will have publicize itself to
them, to make them turn
north after visiting the park.
Grow recommended that
thr county compile an inven­
tory of it* accomodation*, so
that it can plan intelligently
for future development of
tourism, without overdevel­
opment.
Supervisor Wayne Miller
of Baltimore Township a*k
rd about the potential traffic
problem when many visitors
from outside the county get
onto Barry's two lane, wind
ing roads.
Pratt said that the county
must make its decisions on
how much it wants to pro
mote tourism and attract
visitors, and then plan for
the influx.
Sen. DeMaso said that
Cedar Point will spend $35
million in the first few year*
to develop the park. The
construction will provide an
estimated 200 short term
job* for local labor.
As for economic impact on
the area. DeMaso said that
the park could mean an
estimated $90 to $100 million
annually in outside business
for Calhoun and surrounding
counties. Hr said that Barry.
Kalamaaoo. Branch. St.
Joseph and Eaton counties
stand to benefit as well as
Calhoun.
DeMaso. Pratt and Krizan
expressed their pleasure at
the good turnout Monday
night by Barry County
people. They ran short of the

your home freezer stop*?
This question la quite often
aaked by eonzumora at
various times of the year.
Whether the freezer haa a
mechanical problem, be­
comes accidentally discon­
nected or turned off or stope
because of a power failure,
lhe question is lhe same.
Whatever the reasons, for
a family with a full refrigera­
tor-freezer of food or a
separate storage freezer of
food. lhe danger in power
loss Is that the food may
spoil. Handling all thia
rapidly thawing food Is a
problem. Replacing it to a
financial blow to lhe budget.
What can you do if your
freezer stops running? First,
keept the freezer closed to
keep food aa cold as possible
fur as long as possible. How
long food in your freezer will
stay frozen depends on sev­
eral factors. (II The amount
of food In the freezer. (A full
freezer will stay cold many
hours longer than a freezer
only % fuU.) (2) The Uad of
food. (A freezer full of meat
will not warm up as fast as a
freezer fuU of baked goods.)
(8) Tbe temperature of the
food. (The colder the food,
lhe longer it will stay fro­
zen.) (4) The freezer itself.

longer than one with little
insulation.)
If you can get dry ice, this
is another way of keeping
foods frozen. Twenty-five
pounds of dry ice should hold
lhe temperature of a half­
full. 10-&lt;ubic foot cabinet be
low freezing for two to three
days. Food in a fully loaded
cabinet will stay frozen for
three to four days If you put
lhe dry lee in soon after the
freezer goes off. Use 50
pounds of dry ice for a
20&lt;ubtc-foot freezer. You
may be i ble to buy dry ice
from a local dairy, cold­
storage warehouse or ice
company. Chock lhe yellow
pages in your telephone
directory for dry ice.
Move any food from lhe
C’ ck-freeze compartment to
storage compartment of
the freezer. Put heavy card­
board directly on lhe pack­
ages of frozen food. Then put
the dry ice on top of the
cardboard.
If you have pul dry lee
inside the freezer, you may
cover the freezer with biankels, quills or some other
covering. It will help to put
crumpled newspaper or ex­
celsior between the cabinet
and the blanket*.
If you pul blankets or
other coverings on the freez­
er. be sure to pin or fasten
them so that they will not
cover the air-vent openings.
The power may go on un­
expectedly, aad the freezer
will need ventilation.
If your freezer is off. you
have to be concerned with
food safety. What should
you do with food if It thaws?
Occasionally. frozen foods
are partially or completely
thawed before you discover
that tbe freezer is not opera­
ting. Partial thawing and
refreezing does reduce the
quality of foods, particularly
fruits, vegetables and pre­
pared foods. Red meats are
affected less than many
other foods.
Do not refreeze frozen pot
pies, eclairs or foods with
cream fining*. You may safe­
ly refreeze other foods that
have thawed If they -till
contain ice crystals or If they
are still cold -about 40®--and
have been held al this tem­
perature no longer thin one
or two days after thawing.
Foods warmed to 40° or
higher are not likely to be fit
for refreezing.
By all means, be especially
careful in refreezing thawed
vegetables, shellfish and
cooked foods. You can’t al­
ways leil if these foods have
started to spoil. It’s best not
to refreeze any of these
foods when they have thaw­
ed completely. If the eondi
tion of the food is poor or
questionable, gel rid of it. It
may be dangerous. Do not
use melted lee cream. Plan
to use refrozen foods as soon
aa possible.
Use care in preparing,
packaging and freezing food
The more sanitary you are in
preparing food for the freez­
er. the better it will be able
to withstand power failure.
Sanitary preparation means
fewer bacteria to cause
spoilage when foods begin to
thaw.

some time we were able to

ple of hairy*, a* well as
Mveral other choice visiters

Snowmobilers Question

Prosecutor’s Opinion
Emmet E. Herrington. di­
rector of the Barry County
Area Snowmobile Council,
has written The Banner that
officer* and member* of lhe
executive board of lhe
Snowmobile Council had
read Prosecutor Gary Hol
man's letter to the chairman
of the Barry County Board
of Commissioner* regarding
the use of snowmobile* on
the shoulder* of the rounty
roads, "pointing out the
possible oversights or unin
tentional errors which if we
are correct might tend tn
mitigate or change some
parts of his tHolman'sl re
sponse of February 7th to
the Commissioner*.
The Prosecutor is quite
right in his definition of
negligence and in listing the
elements whkh support the
definition. Secondly, no
question is being raised by
this organization concerning
the Attorney General'*
opinion No. 2W5. dated May
23.1957. which in effect say*
that the County Bead Com
mission is autonomous and
that the Board of Commi*
wooers has no authority
over the Road Commission
other than granted by
statute. Thirdly, the func
lion of the Road (nmmn
sion to designate county
road shoulder* for »nownx»
bile use as shown in the
statute has never been ron
tested. Their refusal to act
favorably or to continue
negotiations in responw* Io
the request of a large num
her of Barry County citizen*
or in lhe absence thereof to
give reason* of substance to
these citizens is being and
will continue to be questionWe do question the cila
lion by the Prosecutor in hi*
letter of February 7lh of a
part of Section 12 (el of lhe
statute and also subsequent
verbage whkh kads lhe
reader to believe that mow
mobile* may not now be
operated on the right of
way of Barry County roads.
It would appear that he has
considered only a part of lhe
full governing statute in
rendering thia part of hie

opinion.
Section 12&lt;ai of thi* umr
statute is quoted a* follows:
"A *now mobile may be
operated on the right of way
of a public highway. except a
limited -cross highway, if it
is operated al the extreme
right of the open portion of
the right of way and with
the flow of traffic on the
highway. Snowmobile*
operated on the right of way
of a public highway, a*
herein provided. »hall travel
single file and shall not lie
operated abreast except
when overtaking ano pass
ing another snowmobile."
In practice Mate and local
law enforcement personnel
on a statewide hasis, a* well
as Ikpartment of Natural
Resource* officers who also
have enforcement responsi­
bilities act under this inter
prrtntion of thi* law. If
IVosecutor Holman is cor
rect in hi* opinion in thi*
instrncr it would mean that
the law enforcement per
wmnel mentioned have been
administering the law im
properly vtvc it* inception.
A review of the legislative
history of thi* act a* well as
appropriate opinion* of toe
Attorney General also pro­
vide riant y.
We a*k that the Frotccu
tur clarify the apparent mis
understanding concerning
the above reference* to the
statute and to make a
definite statement a* to
whether snowmobile* may
continue to lie operated on
the right of way of public
highways in Barry County
as it i* now stated in Section
12 tai of the statute.
With regard to rounty
liability, can we assume that
.he same definition of negli
genre and it* supporting
elements would he applk
able as snowmobile* are
operated on the right of way
of county highways as
authorized in Section 12 (al
of the statute. Would the
nutter of rounty liability not
be much greater in the right
of way area because of
existing impediments. L».
stone*, stump*, tree* and
other dehn*. than on the

road shoulders which arc
dear of *uch factor*. A* a
matter &lt;4 information, dur
ing the some twenty year*
that snowmobile* have hern
operated «&gt;n and off publk
road* in Michigan oalz one
liability suit ha* been filed
against a governmental
body in thi* Mate. Can the
*am&lt;- *1 at rment be made by
any other recognized user*
of our highway system.
The I*rosecutor’» letter
further states that according
Io our Road Commissioners
approximately ti0°o of Barry
County roads either have no
right of way or no shoulder
that is suitably wide or fit
for snowmobile use. Can we
then assume that the re
maining 20 percent or some
200 mile* of Barry County
road shoulders are suitable
and fit for snowmobile use
If so. would the Road Com
mission be willing to declare
these a* open rood*. Here it
would he interesting In
know what standard is being
used by the Road Coaimt*
«oa to declare road* a*
being suitabk or unsuitable
In further examining the
matter of unreasonable risk
whkh the Prosecutor ha»
said "would he created hy
insufficient right-of-way* or
shoulder* aL.ng county
road*" we would al«o ask
w hat standard or measure of
judgement was used to »up
port hi* contention in thi*
instance. For example,
would the same measure of
unreasonable risk be involv­
ed when we are referring to
road shouldrv* six to eight
feet in width as we are when
such shoulder* are one to
two feet wide.
Although we realize that
lhe question posed to the
Prosecutor by the Chairman
of the Harry County Board
of Commissioner* apparent
ly pertained only to the
liability of the rounty for
permitting snowmobilers on
rounty roadway*, would not
a like question be tn order in

This Week’s Message

by REV. ROBERT TAYLOR. Pastor
Nashnile Assembly of God
Luke 13 24 "Strive to enter m at the sired
gate." I Timothy 6 12 "Fight the good tight
of faith, lay hofd on eternal Me."
II Timothy 4:7 "I have fought the good
light. I have finished the course. I have kept
the faith."
The teals speak of a two fold conflict. The
first is addressed to lhe unconverted Strive
to enter m by the strait gate Gong through a
gate only takes a moment of time. The sinner
is r-ot to strive al of his life to get through the
gate, he is to do it immedutefy He to not to
let anything hold him back: He must go in.
Romans 1013 "Whosoever shad cal1 upon
lhe name of the Lord shal be saved " John
3:16 "For God so loved the world, that He
gave he only begotten Son. that whosoever
befceveth in hen should not pensh. but have
evertastvig fife "
Then comes the second, the Me long
confbet by the straight gate I come mto the
new Me In the new Me there are st*
enemies Of this Me long conRkt Paul says
I have fought the good fight. I have f m&lt;shed
lhe course. I have kept the faith.” With
respect to the continue- v conffict. he gave
the charge. "Fight the good fight of faith."
Many strive afl their Me agamy. the Lord
and Hrs summons, and because they are not
at rest but feel an inner conflict, they think
that thts a the conflict of the Chrtoiton. Not
so. this is the struggle against God of one

win • not wdkng to abandon everything and
surrender hmseff to the Lord. God wants us
to break through the enemtoe that would
hinder US from going through the gates, and
immediately enter in.
Then foltows the second conflict, which
endures for Me Paul, twice cafe thio the fight
of farth. The chtof characteristic of it to faith
Paul says m Ephesians 6:16 "Above afi.
taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall
be able to quench afi the fiery darts of the
wicked."
What does this moan? ft means I must be
in a stronghold or fortress which cannot be
taken With ouch a stronghold a week person
can withstand a powerful enemy. This
stronghold, thw stable fort to Christ. By faith
we are in Hen. by faith wo know that the
enemy can make no progress agssnst our
fortress
The wees of Satan w« go forth on the fine
of enticing us out of our fortress, of engaging
us n confbet with hen on the open pton
There he always overcome. But M am stnve in
faith, then we overcome because Satan has
to deal with Chret. and He has aireedy
overcome afi lhe powers of Satan. "This to
the victory that heth overcome the world
even our faith **
Our fast and greatest then, to to beksve.
As Paul said before he mentions the worths
oqmpmsnt of lhe Christian. "From hence­
forth be strong in the Lord, end in the
strength of hie might."

Hi'uiinh'il!

Don Gould. R.Ph., pmi
dent of the association. elat­
ed. The pharmaciata of
Michigan feel that we must
protect the young children
from the trsgvdie* of potoon
inge.
"The curiosity of young

children lead* to many, if not
moat, accidental poiaon
ings." Children see. touch,
and then taste medicine on
the bedside aland, drain
cleaner under the sink, fur­
niture polish left on a table.
Thia frequently leads to
tragedy.
"I urge parents to insure
that all toxic materials and
medicines are kept secure
from the reach of children.
We don't ordinarily think of
such items as soaps, deter
gents, cleaners and aspirin
as harmful, but in 1974 these
products were heading the
list in household poisonings
of children."
Gould also described lhe
various services which phar
macists in lhe stale have
provided over the past sev­
eral years to aid in poison
prevention. They developed
the now widely recognised
"snake warning symbol"
which is a self education pro
gram between parent and
child to identify dangerous
substances in the home; lhe
poison antidote kit (PAK)
containing syrup of ipecac
and activated charcoal for
first aid use; a booklet "The
Family Reference Guide to
Poison Prevention and
Treatment"; a "Safety Medi
cine Chest” used to secure
drugs and medicines out of
the reach of children; a film
"Sniffy Escapes Poisoning"
which leaches small children
important lessons about the
dangers of medicines and
other household poisons
through the use of an am
mated cartoon.
Gould pointed out that the
Poison Prevention Packag
Ing Act of 1970 has eon
tributed substantially to re­
ducing the number of acci
dental poisonings among
children under five.
Aspirin is no longer tops
in accidental ingestion by
children under five years of
age. according to the newest
tabulation by lhe National
Clearinghouse for Poison
Control Centers.
However, other cate
gories have assumed a more
prominent place on the list
of the top 25 categories
involved in ingestions by
children under five. They
include soaps, detergents,
'leaner*, plants and per
fume/rologne/toUet water.
Insecticides showed the
largest percentage increase.
Gould urged parents to
gain a full knowledge on how
to prevent children's acci­
dental poisonings and what
to do in case of an acci­
dental poisoning by consult
ing their koaJ pharmacist or
by contacting the Michigan
Pharmaceutical Association.

State-Wide School Employees

Meeting To Be Held at Climax
by UNtRAlNE COOKE
A general meeting of all
school (part or full time)
employees and bus drivers,
statewide, has been sche
diiled Tuesday. March 15 al
7:30 p.nt. in the Climax
Scutls High School Cafe­
teria.
The purpose of the meet
ing is to discuss lhe retire
ment plan as it now exists
and to draw up a new
formula
using service
credit* to better advantage.
In the present retirement
plan system, as spelled ou.
by John Jenkin*, manager of
the Public Schoo) Em
ployee's Retirement Sys
tem. individuals who work
part time such as bus
drivers, do qualify for Public
School Employee's Retire­
ment Fund* on their retire­
ment al a pro rated level.
The minimum require­
ment to he considered a full
time employee, qualifying
far retirement benefits, is
six hours per day for a 1U
year minimum. Part time
employees, such a* bus driv­
ers. would have this system
prorated to their situation.
For example, since a full
I ime employee must work an
average 0 hours per day for
10 year* to qualify, working
5 hour* a day for approxi
mately 13 year* would quali
fy a bus driver for retire
mrnt benefits.
The individuals who do
not ever qualify for retire
meat benefita are not eligi
hie for these monies, and
quoting former Rep. Wayne
Rackett. "the Slate is able to
save enough money to pro
vide a higher benefit for
mula. and other benefits,
such as retirement al age 55
and :W yean of service and
the 10 year vesting require
ment for full time era
pkiyecs."
In most district*, health
group insurance is totally
paid for the full time em
pkiyce t teacher*. ete) while
part time employee* and
drivers are not afforded
such benefit*.
According to Mrs. Ger­
trude Van Avery. Climax, an
employee or driver who has

for leu than 20 years, can
collect no retirement at all.
despite lhe fact that money
has been placed (now
mandatory by state law) in
the fund for that individual's
retirement.

It is hoped that a fair law
can be formulated to set up a
vesting period at 10 year*,
and to allow employee* to
collect retirement benefits
proportional to lhe money
paid in for them.

Everywhere hr went, hr
gave I hr same message:

felons wlw had been out of
jail only a short lime, and
would Mill have been in

All of the murder* were
brutal, and some unusually
vicious. All of Ihr men who
rommitrd them hail been

Thr parole system in

Using a chart, he showed
how prisoner* earn time off

taken oil their minimum

Patterson said that hr ha*
been told by correction and
parole authorities that it
would com the stale $3)0

prison to hold the extra

changed. He said that al

The project I* part of the
Kalamazoo Metropolitan

Township, the proposed
sewer plan would serve 100

Township Supervisor Joel

Mr*. Judy Dwoinen of

She said she had contacted
39 person* who reside on
IJttle tang take and only
three of that number were in
favor of the project a* It
My* I‘w omen said IJttle
Ding take residents were
not opposed to a sewer
system per *e, but that thi*
particular plan "is not the
answer to our problems."
In opposing the system.
Mrs Dwoinen and two other
tang l.ake resident*, who
also attended lhe meeting,
said they were concerned
that thr sewer system would
affect their lake level and
would result in an increase
■if population at the lake.
They told the board that
they were interested in ob
laintng more information
about the project lo know if
their concerns were justi­
fied.
Mr*. Dwoinen said the
method for sewer assess­
ment* is unfair to those who
own narrow lots. The plan

ta»l month, the board
applied for federal and Mate

would pay up to 80 per eent

said Wilkins and Wheaton

would not have to make a
commitment to the project
until it received a grant

However. Welty told the
board that the firm haa naw

regarding Step 2 as soon as

Tile board said a counter
proposal a* outlined in a

In the letter. Krei* said:

"GUILT. GIFTS AND GRACF'
by W1LLARD H. CURTIS. Pastor
First Presbyterian Church. Heating*
h la hartgy necessary to dsscribs or define
guilt. that *eB known, uncomfortable feeling
that al of us have experienced when we
didn't measure up, when we faded, when we
departed from the set pattern of our pest,
whan we broke out of the mold of others'
expectations. when wo hurt someone, when
ws did something wrong.
The most common mechanism used to
alleviate the pain o( gu« and fear of
consequences is to prepare grh*. to balance
the bad whh some good. The businessman

conscience A young woman is made to fad
duty-bound to her widowed mother. She
enters into marriage only with a deep sense
of gudt at leaving her mother. Driven by this
gudt. she continues to serve her mother and
indudee her mother in her married Ma In
ways that are destructive to her marriage.
She is trying to relieve gudt with gifts.
And whet we say with reference to our
human rotations pertains stso, and eapeciaty.
to our retai ioosNp to God wherein arise* true
gudt. Engraved deeply in the heart of *6
persons is rhe idea that everything must ba

impew* multitudes of Hindu* to plunge into
the waters of the Ganges lo be washed from
their guM. It ha* covered huge statues of the
Buddha with gold leaf. It has erected
eiaborata cathedral* and monument* in
Christendom Think of a* the penitents and
pdgrims of a* refigions who impose upon
themselves sacrifices, ascetic practices or
arduous tourneys They feel the need to pay.
But also from the earliest B-toiical times
■nspirsd men hove reekrod that God wonts
righteousness. They have reekrod that
people cannot square accounts through gifts
or ritualistic activity. In the first chapter of
Isaiah wo read: " "What to me is th*
multitude of your sacrifice*?' say* the Lord; 'I
have had enough of burnt offering*....! do
not dHaght in the blood of buBs. or of lambs,
or of he goats......Bring no more vain
offerings I cannot endure iniquity and

solemn assembly .Wash yourasivoc make
yourselves dean; remove the evA you are
doing from before my eye*. cease to do ev&lt;
learn to do good. .."
Gifts do not work with God. A person
cannot pay him off. Hie predcamant is
compounded m that even H payment would
work, he has no reserves with which to pay.
An adverteement for a finance company
read. "Now you can borrow enough money
to got completely out of debt." Whan wa
stan in the red. no amount of borrowing wM
bring us out in the black.
That is our predicament. We stand guSty
and fearful until we find tire blessing of God.
the grace of God. God's grace is the only
answer for gudt God's grace is his activity,
not ours, to forgive and to cleanse. God’s
grace comes not through keeping rules, ft
comes not through refigiou* ritual*, h comes
through th* channel of a personal rslstionstvp between God and man. when men
acknowledge* hie gudt. rather than imagin­
ing that in one way or another he himeaN can
pay fuS pace for it.
We have the intuition that a price must be
paid. The Good News is that God has paid
the price in the person of Jesus, oo th*
Goss. He paid the price once for-aA. Jesus
came to save that which wee lost- Ha bore
our sin* in he own body on the Goes.
Paul writes (Romans 56® "WMa we
were yet helpless, at the right time Christ
died for the ungodly Why. one wdl hardly die
for a righteous man - though perhaps for a
good man one wdl dare even to die. But God
shows he love lor u* in that wh4e we were
yet sinners Christ &lt;*ed for us." This is God’s
grace, a love without rood*ion* We don't
have to be "good" before he love* us. We
don't have to be loving before he loves u*.
We don't have to be religious before he love*
us. We have simply to be honest enough to
acknowledge our sin and gwft and to accept
It is Amazmg Gaea, but not unbefievabie.

that is greater than ail their tin. They know
that "there is therefore now no condemna­

Atty. General Clarifies
New Open Meetings Act
Attorney General Frank
J. Kelley ha* issued a 34page opinion clarifying the
Michigan Open Meetings
Act due to take effect on
March 31. 1977.
Kelley said: "The thrust of
the act is that all discussion
of puHie issues by public
bodies must take place at
meeting* that are open to
the public. While this »tate
has a history of enlightened
law* and Attorney General
opinion* requiring open
meetings, this act extends
the right of the public to
observe and participate in
meeting* of public hodir* in
several way*.
The act broaden* the
definition of public bodies
that must hold public meet
ing* and narrow* the or
caMon* when they may meet
in private.
The act is more ipccific
in detailing the right* of the
public to attend meeting* of
public bodies.
The art require* publie
bodies to allow all persons to
address a meeting of that
body
Th&lt; art gives enforce
ment powers to member* of
the public and impose*
meaningful penalties on pub­
lic official* who violate the
law. This is especially im­
portant because the former
open meeting* law waa freuuently i ptored because it
did not provide penalties for
violation*. Thi* art provide*
both specific and adequate
penalties for enforcement by
both my office and the

publie."
Kelley's clarifying ruling
consist* of two section*. One
summarize* the provisions
of the art and the other
contains 32 questions that
have been raised about the
art by state legislator* and
agencies and the answer* to
those question*.
The rulings in the Mcond
part include:
All employment inter­
view* that a public body
conduct* itself must be held
al a public meeting. Thi*
point I* addressed at three

place* in the opinion. Speci­
fically. Kelley rule* that: the
Michigan Employment
Security Commission mu»t
hold public interview* for all
positions upon which the
Commission has reserved
final decision to itself. inter
views for position* where
the public body is not re­
quired to interview the
applicant may lie conducted
in private by staff of the
public body. interviews for
the position of school super
intencknt for K 12 school*
mu*t be held in public.
A motion to call a closed
session must be approved by
a public rolleall vote of
two third* of all member* of
the public body appointed to
and serving, not merely
those attending that particu­
lar meeting. Kelley also
ruled that a meeting could
only be closed for the specitic purpose* provided in the
art and that no other rea­
son* were permissible.
Meet ing* of public bodies

by the means of conference
phone calls are prohibited by
the act. Kelley ruled that
oven if it were physically
possible to inelude the public
in a conference phone call
meeting, the intent of the
art would not be observed.
•All persons have the
right to address a public
meeting. This right may be
reasonably controlled by
rule* recorded by the publie
body. These rules may in­
clude a time limit and a
requirement that a perron
identify himself and give ad­
vance indication that he
wishes to speak.
■A situation, sueh as
when member* of a public
body meet socially or meet
to address a civic organisa­
tion ia not a public meeting
within the definition of the
art unless designed to avoid
&lt;~ .nplianre with the act.

T-K Electors Vote

Monday On Renewal
Thornapple Kellogg
School District electors will
vote Monday. March 28. on
renewal of a 4.5 mill special
tax for school operations for
three years.
A meeting to discuss the
propose! will be held in the
West Elementary School at
7:30 p.m. this Thursday.
Everyone is invited.
The 4.5 mill tax was
■■riginally voted to operate
the new high school in 1971.
It was in effect for three
years, and renewed in the
spring of 1974 for 1974. 1975
and 1976.
In an announcement Mon
day, the T K administration
stated:
"Without the 4.5 mill re­
newal being voted Monday,
March 28. 1977. the T.K.
Schools are in real trouble.
The 4.5 mills in terms of
dollars means &gt;205,000 in
loca) taxes, plus &gt;205,000 in
matching Slate Aid. That
means 410.000 would be lost
to the District. This repre­
sents 17% of the total bud­
get‘The people in this Dis­
trict have a right to be proud

of their school system. The
loss of this much reverse
would be a severe blow to
lhe entire operation.
"The Board of Education
and Administration feel they
have done a good job of
managing lhe resources of
lhe District and in giving the
people of the District the
type of program they want­
ed foe their ehDdren.
"We are all paying more
taxes (Federal, Slate, etc)
than we would like to pay •
hut the children who are in
school represent the future
of our Community, our
State, and our Country. The
Board of Education has al
ways felt that lhe people of
this District wanted a good
education for their children.
"Now is the time for lhe
people of the District to
show faith in their Board
No one really wants a second
class education for their
children.”
T-K Administration office
will he open Saturday.
March 26. from 10 a.m. to 2
p.m., for the purpose of
providing absent voters bal­
lots.

Seveath-day Plaa*

Fart Day Saturday
As floods. dual storm*,
and economic crises plague
the United State*. Seventh
day Adventista have declar­
ed this Saturday. March 36.
a day of fastipg and prayer
lor the nation.
In announcing the special
day of intercession. Neal C.
Wilma, vice president of the
church far th* United State*
and Canada, stated. "The
half million Adventist* in
North America will call on
(k&gt;d to alleviate human suf­
fering and preserve the na­
tion from further calami­
ties."
Wilson cited the recent
natural gas and related
energy shortage, dust
storms in Kansas and th*
south, and water rationing
in San Fransiro's nearby
Mann County at potential
heralds of more trouble Io
rome. "Is God trying to tell
tn Mime thing? We think He

it. and we want to spend this
day of fatting and prayer
listening to Hi* will for ow
live*.’
The church leader also
saw a correlation between
America's physical problem*
and its moral climate.
"Crime continue* to soar.
Violence in television enter­
tainment and news beget*
violent acts on th* part of a
violence proo* minority." he
said. “The church in North
America will pray for a
return to God's law and Hi*
grace as the only answer to
our difficulties.'
The church official pointed
out that economic disaster in
North America would also
adversely affect the world
mission of Christian church-

Wilson is the son of
Nathaniel C. Wilson, now
retired in California, who
was president from IfBOM
of the Michigan Conference
of Seventhday Adventist*,
headquartered in I-ansing.

The recent baptism by
immersion of President Car­
ter's daughter Amy has
sparked questions on the
ancient practice of “total
immersion" baptism, say*
Pastor E. Henel. pastor of
the Delton Sevcnth-day Ad­
ventist Church.
"Many people apparently
have never heard of any
other method of baptism
beside* sprinkling." report*
Pastor Herzel. "Actually
sprinkling is a recent addi
lion to the Judeo-Christian
tradition."
Jesus Christ, according to
the New Testament record,
was baptized by John the
Baptist in the Jordan River
at the age of 30. Baptism, in
first-century Palestine,
signified an extra dimension
of dedication to God for the
Jew. who was already born
into a covenant relationship.
Pastor Henel said.
'Jesus' parting word* to
Hi* disciple*, before ascend
ing into heaven, were in­
structions to teach the go*pel in all the world, baptiz
ing men and women in the
name of God. In the Book of
Art*, in the New Testament,
we find Phillip baptizing an
Ethiopian in a river after he
accepted Jesus a* Christ."
Pastor Henel said.
"h's only much later, dur­
ing the Roman Catholic era.
that sprinkling babies short­
ly after birth came into
practice. Many Protestant
churches have held onto the
ritual, but Baptist* and
Seventh day Adventisla.
among others, have gone
back to the original practice
of total immersion, repre
venting the burial of the old
life of sin and resurrection in
Christ." he added.
“Adventist children are
prepared for baptism at
about age 12. though in
exceptional circumstances
they have been baptized
earlier. We feel a child
should understand his com
mitment to the Lord and be
fully aware that he is pledg
ing his whole life. This would
be impossible at birth.
"New convert* to the (ait h
are baptized at any age.
unless through physical dis
ability they choose to be
come members by a 'pro
fession of faith.'" Pastor
Henel concluded.

There will be Lenten ser
vice* Wednesday al 8 p.m.
at St. Cyril's in Nashville
and Thursday at 7 p.m. at

This Week’s Message

"THE GIFT WITHOUT PRICE"
by REVEREND SIDNEY A. SHORT
Fist United Meinod.it Church, Hastings
The prophet. Isaiah in th* 55th chapter
speaks ol a gift without price. H* is trying to
establish th* fact that there are some thing*
not measured in debars and cent*. These
thing* are gift* han God vv.Ji no price tags
attached
We have a tendency to want to know the
price of an article There is a sens* in which
we seem to be saying. "Everything ha* a
price; everything ■» lor sale’ Often this
extend* to the lives of other people
There is the story of a mother who was
hevmg a talk with her young son. He seemed
to be very concerned about life and what
was expected of him He asked hto mother.
"Why are we here’' She replied. "We are
here to help and love other* " He thought for
a moment and then asked. "But what are the
Other* for?" There is the desire to see a fa*
distribution of responsibility
Yet there arc some situations m our
understanding that suggest a value cannot
be placed There is the baseball player whose
contract is not for sale at any price. There is
the Vaga Diamond with its 720 karats and
who car. measure it* worth?
The gift of faith is above price. We cannot
buy it. We cannot earn it. We simply accept
it. Tliere comes an understanding to us that
God ha* already paid the price Moreover.
Hi* love is given freely because this is the
very nature of God
The gift of faith is God'* love expressed in
Jesus Chris:. We recognize in our Lord a

caring that goes beyond anything w* would

matti
person who is hungry for spiritual food. W&gt;

abundantly pardon* us.

agement What a fantastic realization 1 to to
know that we belong to God because w* ar*

In the final analysis. the gift of faith ia a
leveling influence. We ar* ai on the same
footing There is a oneness because of our
human situation Our economic status has
no place here The rare sen** of being loved
by God is open to al. Come without money
and receive ol Him
We are had way through the season of
Lent Soon we wdl be celebrating the
resurrection of our Lord, it would be a shame
if wr failed to be aware of the fact that this
act of love was and i» tor us a«. It to the Gif’
without Price. Wo need only be receptive to
the fact that we are loved by God to receive
the entire gift. May God assist u* in a*sing
the simple truth rather than complicating the
issue by our own devices of requirement*.

Delton Seventh-day Collection

To Aid Europe, Africa Projects
Three major projects in
Europe and Africa will re­
ceive money from an offer
ing at the Delton Seventh
day Adventist Church thia
Saturday, according to
Arthur Metzger. Sabbath
school superintendent of the
church.
“Each quarter we collect
an offering foe world mis
sions." Mid Mr. Metzger.
"The amount of money over
the specified goal gov* into a
'special project offering' for
needy program*.
"This quarter the 'over
flow' will aid the Northern
Europe West Africa Divi­
sion. one of 10 such geo
graphical unit* in the
church. Our money, a* well

a* money from all over
North America, will go to
build a library at the Ad
vvnlist Seminary of West
Africa in Nigeria; a girls'
dorimitory at the junior
college in Finland tto re­
place structures that have
been condemned by fire
authorities), and a new
building for the 100 year-old
Norwegian Publishing
House it. Oslo. Norway."
Metzger continued that
inflation is taking a bigger
bite from the Adventist
mission dollar, and noted
that while mission contribu
lions have increased, infla­
tion ha* kept the real value
nearly ronstant over the
past few year*. "This is a

great challenge to our peo­
ple. to •■'jpport the work of
these dimensions." he said.
A recent report by World
Vision International placed
Adventists second only to
Southern Baptists in the
total dollar value of mission*
offerings during 1975.
Southern Baptists, with
Mime 12 million U.S. mem
bers. gave ISO million; Ad­
ventist* with 600,000 H.S.
member*, gave 125 million.
The special quarterly ser­
vice. with spotlight on
Northern Europe and West
Africa, will take place at
9:30. Saturday morning, al
the church, on Pifer Road at
Cedar Creek Road. The pub
lie i* cordially invited.

Kalamazoo Catholic Diocesan
Annual Fund Drive Underway
The fifth Kalamazoo Dio­
cesan Service* Appeal
(KDSA/77) was launched
March 1920 with pulpit
announcements at all the
parish Masse*of the Diocese
of Kalamazoo in Miuthwest­
ern Michigan.
KDSA/77 is a one-time
appeal each year with funds
going to provide a wide
range of diocesan services as
well a* funding a variety of
national and international
Catholic service programs.
The one time approach of
KDSA eliminates the need
for numerous collections,
parish assessment taxes,
and other special appeals
during the year. Since the
KDSA concept wa* adopted
for the Diocese of Kalama
zoo in 1973. the only extra
collection is for missionary
activities throughout the
world.
KDSA/77 will support the
work of all diocesan office*,
including Marriage and
Family Ministry. Christian
Worship, Christian Educa
tion. Youth Ministry. Pas
toral Program*. Priestly
life and Ministry, and Com
municalion*.
Other dioceMn service*
and program* funded by
KDSA/77 will include
Catholic Family Service*,
the Council of Catholic Wo
men. dioceMn administra
tion, the dkxesan Marriage
Tribunal, religious voca
lions, high school scholar
ships, the Presbylerate
Council, retired sisters.
Catholic Scouting. Sisters'
Council.
Spanish speaking
Apostolate. Campus Mini*
try. and an emergency fund.
Other organizations which
will be supported by KDSA/
77 arc Birthright, student
center*. Catholic University,
Michigan Catholic Confer­
ence. the United Slate*
Catholic Conference and th*
National Conference of
Catholic Bishops, and eight
national collection*.
A renewed program in the
Diocese which will be funded
by KDSA/77 is an Inner
City ministry involving ser

vice to the poor in the
Renton Harbor area.
According to the KDSA.'
77 announcement by the
Most Rev. Paul V. Donovan,
Bishop of Kalamazoo, "The
n-a«on for our successful
growth and progress a* a
Diocese is because God has
blessed u* with dedicated
clergy and religious, and
committed laity. The genrrou* outpouring of the
lime, the talent*, and th*
effort* of tho»e who have a
deep conviction about To
MTve rather than be served'
ha* been the cornerstone of
our development these past
few year*. The lx&gt;rd has
indeed been good and I think
all in the Diocese have tried
to Im- good steward* these
past years."
Bishop Donovan reported
on the result* to dale of last

year's KDSA program, say­
ing that S749.996.57 ba*
been
pledged
with
3625,058.36 received. He
Mid 53 parishes and mis
sions are at over target and
356.749.55 has already been
returned to parishes.
In the KDSA system, each
parish and mission in the
Diocese is assigned a “tar­
get" amount to raise for
KDSA according to its num­
ber of parishioners and in­
come. Parishes and missions
exceeding their targets will
have the money refunded to
them from KDSA headquar­
ter* where all funds are
*ent. processed, and distri­
buted. Parishes and mis­
sions falling short of the
target will be responsible for
paying off the difference
from parish fund* or other
sources.

Recent warm days have
brought one of the signs of
spring: kite flying.
And with kites ran come
dangers to children, accord
ing to Gordon Howard. Hat
tie Creek diUrkt manager
for Consumers Bower Com
pany.
A few timely tips are In
order, says Howard. He
urges parents and school
officials to warn youngsters
of the dangers of flying kites
near electric power lines.
Howard has the following
suggestions to help Kile
flyers of any age avoid
trouble:
1. Use dry string -not wire
or anything metallic to fly
your kite.
2. Make certain your kite
has no metal parts wood
and paper are the safest
materials.
3. Fly your kite when it's
not raining and when the
ground is dry.
4. Avoid busy streets snd
highways.
5. Fly your kite far away
from TV and radio aerials.
6. Keep away from any
fallen elertnc wires.
7. Fly your kite far from
electric power lines.
8. Call your electric utility
if your kite gets snagged in a
power line. Do not pull the
string or climb utility poles.

Lakewood Band to Wear
New Uniforms for Pops
Pride i. taking yet anoth­
er din-dim. for the laikr
wood High School Hand.
TheyII lie wearing new uni
forms for the first lime when
they perform the annual
Pops Concert on Thursday,
March 31. al 8 p.m. in the
high school gymnasium.
The uniform, arrived a
couple week, ago and artIwing distributed to the
memliers of thr hand. Thr
concert wear features ivilcro
jackets and long skirts for
the girls and Edwaniian
luxrdm for thr hoys. All are
ill contrasting shades of
him-. The uniforms were
approved for purchase last
November by the laikcwood
school Isiard after ahoiil a
year and hall planning by
the hand directors.
The Pops Concert by the
band ha* proven to be very
enjoy able to lake wood resi
dents, and this year should
be no exception. It has some
limes been dubbed thr "Pop
corn" concert because the
Hand Boosters give away
free popcorn with the pur
rhaseol soft drink*. Seating
for the cm.rvrt is at tables
and the program is relaxed
and informal.

The luki-wood Jazz Band
will |M-rform part of the
program. Thr voluntary
group meets outside of
school hour, and has enjoy
•il renewed popularity un
ili-r the leadership of Mr.
Joseph l&lt;aJoye.
Musical highlights of the
program will include a con
cert arrangement of tunes
from thr I.IIS musical.
"South Pacific." the well
known pop tune. "McArthur
Park.” and an intriguing
number called "Grand Sere
niwfo fur an Awful lail of

Country" invites everyone
Io join them for an evening
of pleasant enjoyment.

ed home lawn care for a long
time. Now Michigan State
University lawn expert* are
trying to change all that.
The sudden flush of
growth that follows an early
spring application of nitro
gen helps develop Fusarium
blight, Ihs- biggest home
lawn disease problem.
The symptoms of Fus
arium blight are large,
round dead spots that usual
ly show up first in the spring
when the healthy grass
greens up around them The
spots are less noticeable in
the late spring but become
obvious again during the
hot. dry weather of July and
August.
A good fertilizer program
ran h?lp the turf strong and
healthy and minimize the
occurrence of the unsightly
disease.
A good fertilizer program
should Iwgin in the fall.
During the first or second
week of September, the
homeowner should apply a
complete fertilizer that pro
vide* a pound of nitrogen
per 1.000 square feet. plus
polas.ium and phosphorus
at the rates recommended
hy a soil test.

After the grass has stop­
ped growing usually in late
November
apply ”0*
pound of slow release nitro­
gen per 1.000 square feel.
The plants take up some of
this nitrogen, which pro­
vide* for a nch green color
in the spring and slow,
steady growth rather than
the &gt;uddcn spurt that fol
lows spring fertilizing.
In June. July- and August,
fertilize again with nitrogen
at one half pound per 1,000
square feet, watering it in
thoroughly to prevent burn­
ing the foliage. This supplies
the lawn with the nitrogen it
needs to maintain normal
growth during summer
One problem with this
fertilizer schedule is that
people arc much more likely
to lx- interested in working
on the lawn in the spring,
after they've been rouped up
all winter, than in the fall,
after they've been mowing
for several months. If they
want to avoid problems with
Fusarium hlighl. however,
they 11 use the fertilizer
spreader on the garden in
the spring and let the lawn
wait.

‘Good Neighbor' Sends

Cattle to Wrong Pasture
By VICTOR SISSON
This is one of those human
interest stories that could
only happen in a rural com
munity. like Weal Woodland
and well try and pass it on
as nearly like it was told to
us and hope our readers will
eny.y it Last Thursday af
temoon just a little while
before time for scIkmjI to kt
out. a message came by
telephone for Jeffrey Hrs
teriy. Their cows were out
and were roaming to and fro
arms* the highway, endan
grrtng their own lives and
the lives of motorists on
busy M43. Due to the late
nr** of the hour Jeff did not
leave thr school until dis
missal and when he arrived
home thr cattle all seemed
to he where they belonged in
the field and there was no
sign of any cows out along
the highway. Later it was
learned that an ambulance
driver had nearly hit one of
three cows on the road and

had gone to a nearby neigh
bur's and reported the inci
dent. This good man. being a
goiwi neighbor, opened the
fence into the Hesterly field
and without too much
trouMr drove thr animal*
into the field with the rest of
the herd, dosed the gale and
returned to hi* home.
When Byron came home
from work. Jeff told his
father of thr incident and
thr two carefully checked
every f&lt;»H of the fence
surrounding thr field and
could find no place were a
row could have gotten out.
They checked thr electricity
and found it to be working
perfectly.
Some lime later a couple
of hoys from a farm about a
mile and a half distant
stopped at the Hesterly
home and asked Byron if he
had M-cn any sign of some
stray row* in the neighbor
hexxi. Some of their »t&lt;M-k
had gotten out and the boys

Some Xofo Coifs
DethtdiMe For Taxor
To the Editor:
Dir Michigan farmer is
in great danger if the cun
.umcr dor. not buy his
products. There has been a
k-t in the newspapers, on
radio and television shout
how unsafe Michigan meat
and milk are. These are
half truths being propagated
by a handful ot short sighted
farmer, and lawyers trying
to make a big killing by
playing on the emotion* of
the public. The vast ma
ycity of fanners are coo
evened because they know
the Michigan f&lt;*&gt;d supply is
SAFE. Michigan has some of
the stnrteM mrat and milk
inspect► &gt;n systems in the
( nitrd Stales
&lt;»f course. I am talking
ab-vut PBB. Scientific evidenci- again and again has
sh-wn that the current
tolerance levels of .3 parts
per million in milk and meat
ha. a 100 fold safety factor
that a*.urr. .afe and whole
-mt-food This has all been

substantiated by the Food
and Drug Administration
and the Michigan Depart
mrni of Agriculture. Also,
there ha* been no confirmed
health hazard which can be
traced to PBB. Evett the
farm families who received
pud mas of the original mix­
ture of feed mixed with PBB
have reported no health
problems. which includes
breast fed Haines.
Did you know there is
only 66 to 100 grams of PBB
left m the Michigan food
supply? Some of the original
farmers received nearly that
much and are still very
healthy. A poison is a poison
only when enough of it ia
consumed to render it
poisonous.
I am a dairy farmer locat­
ed near Nashville and my
livelihood
depends on
whether you buy my pro
duct. I am not afraid to eat
meat or drink milk produced
by the Michigan farmer or
myself. You must remem
her. we are consumers also.
The PBB Mtualion in
Michigan has become in­
tolerable because it Is no
longer an issue being judged
on facts, but rather oo
emotion, politics, a distrust
of government, big corpora
lion, against individuals,
farmers against consumers
and lawyers defending
clients.
I hope I have given you
-■me facts you have not
heard before. Remember,
MICHIGAN MEAT AND
MILK ARE AS SAFE AND
WHOLESOME AS THEY
HAVE EVER BEEN.

Grace
Through Failh
■Y STAN CLANTON

Sometimes in the Bible,
geneni senee and a specific sense When used in a
general sense, a wort may indude many things not
apedficaOy stated. For nampie, Ephesians 28 states:
• for by grace are ye saved through faith." Here are
two aimpie words, grace and faith. Grace is God's pan
of salvation - he has provided the sacrifice making it
powbie for man to be saved from sin. Faith is man's
part ol salvation - man's response and acceptance of
the salvation that God has offered.
But each wort here, grace and faith, actuaiy
rrdudes a greet deal. Grace is a generic term and
indudae the ideas of the love of God. the blood of
Christ, and the inspiration of the Holy Speh, as we&gt; as
other things. Al *w necessary for salvation. No one
would say that grace exdudes the blood of Chnst or
the love of God
Likewise, tann ia a generic term that indudae
many things that the Btee says are necessary for our
sdvaton. Forth encompasses everything man does in
response to grace. It indudes repentance (Luke 113.
Aos 17301. confession (Romano 109-10. Matthew
1032). beptiam that sms may be washed awey (Acts
238. Acts 22:161. and a life of trusting obedwnce
(Matthew 741. Hebrews 5:8. 91. So "faith" imptea
much more than mere belief that Jeeua ia the Son of
God. We cannot say that faith excludes things which
the Bible aays are necessary for ua to be saved
Baptism ia an act of faith commanded by God. Sinca it
is commended by God h does not nutofy faith. When
one to baptized "lor the remission of sine" (Acts 238)
and to "wash away sins" (Acts 2216), he is stl saved
by grace through faith.

Raising Food, Ball Urges
Michigan lose* about
50,1)00 .if good farmland
every year, and “we ought
to be smart enough to stop
it." State Agriculture Di­
rector B. Dale Ball said
Thursday evening.
Speaking at ihe annual
banquet of the Barry Soil A
Water Conservation Dis­
trict. Ball said that the stale
•hould tel up a positive
program to keep the best
farmland in agricultural use.
“If you saw it in one piece,
it would be pretty impres
vise.” Ball said of the lost
50.0U0 acres. But H is taken
out of production a few
hundred acres at a time, so it
is not misted much, be said.
He was especially critical of
residential development,
which he said usually is done
on the best farmland in the
area.
Ball predicted that event­
ually. the United Slates will
need all the production from
its own farmland for its own
use "It should be more Im
partant to city people than
to farmers." Bail said, rea
soning that if food is in short
supply, farmers will see that
they gel enough to eat.
Zoning alone is not the
answer to the problem. Ball
said. because it is unfair to
the farmers and probably
unconstitutional. He pro­
posed a system under which
farmers would sell the “de­
velopment rights" of their
land to the state, and keep

the land it self with thr right
to farm it.
Under the plan, the farm
er» would get the Financial
benefit that selling their
land for other use* would
gain, but the land would be
retained for agriculture.
Ball suggested that the
program could lie finance by
a statewide tax on real
estate transfers, so both
farm and city dwellers
would be helping to pay for
it.
Ball predicted that the
huge gain* in farm produe
lion of the past few de
cades will not be repeated in
the future. "We really
haven't seen any break
through* recently in agri
culture." Hall said. "IVoduction per acre and per cow
has sort of leveled off."
Although there is a kA of
unused land in the west, the
water is not there to make it
produ live, be said. The
good land in the Midwest is
now mostly in production.
American agriculture is
now producing good sited
surpluses, and oversea*
markets should be develop­
ed to keep farm prices up.
Ball said. He cited some
error* which the U.S. had
made in international ’arm
trade, one of which lost
much of the Japanese mar­
ket for soybeans.
“Right now we can more
than feed our own people."
Ball said. Despite wheat

sales to Russia "We've got a
heck of a surplus tn wheat.”
Ball* Michigan Depart
men! &lt;•( Agriculture has
tx-cn doing some work in

said he's “amazed by how
much potential demand
then is. not only for our
crop* hut for our livestock.”
Ball noted that both
Egy pt and Morocco want to
develop their own rattle in­
dustries. and need American
cattle to do it.
Ball advocated that the
UJS. develop foreign mar
kets for it* farm surpluses.
Io “keep farmers in business
until we need their produe
lion at home." He com
mented that often prices for
our farm product* overseas
are much higher than farm
rrs get at home.
He also said that we
should be helping other
countries develop their agri
culture, because eventually
we will not have big sur­
pluses, and they will have to
meet their own need*.
Ball also commented that
“we've slipped some in our
conservation program* in
this country."
He recalled a dust storm
in Laming, where he could
not see the Slate Capitol
from Ihe Cass Building near­
by. Such dust storm, he
said, arc the revult of poor
soil conservation practice*.

DDA Should Be Named
Despite Possible Referendum
The muc h u.scusaed referendum on ihe
Downtown Development Authority is not

to the controversial question
We happen to support the DDA. as regular
readers know. lieiause we think Hastings
■’•••Is .tn agency to promote and coordinate
orderly, attractive development of the busi­

We can also see some logic m the
opposition though the arguments of the
opponents aie far from consistent it seems

I ■ •• • &gt;pr- that debate is kept on a high

logical basis, instead of some of the "scare"
statements that have been made m the past.
In the meantime, the council and Mayor
Snyder should not be sitting still They have
a valid ordinance on the txxA*. and steps
should be taken to implement if
Mayor Snyder should act to propose Ihe
memtiership of thr DDA so the voters will
vr m advance the kind of people who will
lead thr agency Then the board should stan
work on the master plan called for by state
i.rw which the ODA must have for Dusmesa

The opponents have asked ihetoncaify
what thr DDA will do The obvious answer,
up to now was the no one could ted lor sure
Thi- state law says that a DDA can do Unti

An example of a ch.*ck

problem,"
Brown *aid. ■ronerrns de
posit* and how they are
handled by hank*. We find
that people often don't un
der«tand that hanks are
allowed, by law. to hold a
de|»«il until the next bank
ing day before making it
avaiUlsiv for withdrawal."
He illustrated thr probelm
in this way:
A person makes a rash
drpmit of. say. 1150 lo his or
her checking account in the
morning. Before the deposit,
then- wa* only $25 in the
checking aromni. later that
«ame day. thr |icr*on write*
a
rhi-ck to pay for an
item purchased from a local
merchant and assume* that
•he $150 deniidl will cover
the check. The merchant*,
ihut same afternoon, pre
si-nls thr check nt the bank
for rash.
"I’ayme-t may hr refused,
and the merchant may be
i.dd that there are in«uffi
rienl fund* in the eu»tomer's
i..-..jnt. Thi* may damage
(he ruMomrr's credibility,
and be could hr placed on a

The hank's action is not
illegal. Brown riplsinrd. he
&lt;-au*r it ha* until Ihe nest
liusinrs* day to poM it*
record* to show the cu*
t omrr * new balance
Brown said:
There are two way* to
avoid thi* problem. First,
the customer could wait one
business day before writing
check* on funds th«t are
deposited in the bank.
Second, if the customer
plan* to write check* on
fund* deposited that same
day. he or she may ask the
hank teller if it is possible to
notify the liank's hookkeep
int department about the
deposit so that it could be
available lor withdrawal im
mediately."
In this situation, a* with
id her problems, consumers
arr encouraged U&gt; seek a
solution firM with the fins

We wdl step in when

EDITORIAL

We May Not Make the News,
But We Report It Fairly
A reader. R Garber took us to task m ths
Monday Hastings Banner on a supposed
difference m treatment of stories involving
violations by two local super markets
Specifically, I ho reader asked why we
mentioned why Kroger was named in one
artcle. and Feipausch was not named in the
other Mr Garber implied that The Banner
ass not giving both stores equal treatment
ActuaJv both stores were named m the
'•rscectne antles Both sto*&gt;es we»e not
considered major news events of the day. so
both stones were placed on mde pages nt
the newspaper
In the case of Kroger s a larger headline
was put on the story, because the store had
been convicted of five violations in mislabel
mg A smaller headhne was put on the story
involving Fdpausch unco it was convicted
on only one count The smaller headkno.
naturuRy gives us less space, and we could
not get the word Fefpausch mto the
headi**
We agree with reader Garber that both
.•oijtons may have been oversights, rather
than intentional Neither store has a record of
frequent violation* But oversight makes the

stores no less legally responsible
A urrwar example could happen to The
Banner If we unimemionaay printed some
information which was false and hbetous
about an individual, we would be juxi as
guilty as il we had intentionally libeled that
person A newspaper, like a store, is
expected to use care m preventing such
offenses agamst the pubic
In the case of the two cases under
drscuseon. one store was found gutty of frve
violations, and the other had only one It a
nbvmus which stores deserved more fines,
and a larger headline No favor was intended,
arid in our opinion, none occurred
To be honest, a newspaper must report
the news completely and objectively We did
not create either violation we just reported
them To not do so would not be honest with
you. our rtaders
It is interesting that The Hastings Banner is
the ONLY news medium in Barry County to
report either case Nowhere else can you get
a complete report of the news If you didn't
read It m The B.wner you didn’t know it
happened

Tax-Planning for Next Year
A* millions id Americans

viser* take lime from their
long work day* Io offer tax
suggrvlioci* for next year.
The Michigan Association
nt CPA* has drafted a list of
step* that will make paying
next year's taxe* easier, not
only by simplifying return
preparation but also by
minimizing the amount of
taxes owed.
It |a called simply tax
planning, the CPA organiza
lion say*. and involve* steps
corporal ions and wealthy in
dividual* have followed for
year*. Now. with every
body’* tax bite swollen by
inflation, almost anyone can
benefit from arranging his
financial affair* so a* to
minimize the tax consequen

The CPA*' suggestion*
follow:
• Get sour records in
order l««id records are
r*M-ntul for preparing your
return and also to prove its
correct RM*. Remember, the
IRS ran assess taxes within
3 year* after your return la
filed &lt;6 year* if more than 25
percent of gross income i*
omitted).
• When travel rxprnse*
are to hr deducted, record*
are especially important. Ikprepared to show when and
where you traveled, the
business purpose of the trip,
and the cost of the travel.
Documentation
require
mrnt* for foreign travel are
even more stringent. Get
profe«*ionaJ advice.
• In setting up a saving*
or investment plan, consider
tax protected
programs
such a* tax free municipal
bond* or las prodded re
tirrment plans.
• If you have business
dealing* with relatives, pro
tert your business expense
deduction by making every
thing formal and by charg
ing the going rale* for in­
terest or rental*. If you lend
a brother in law money, for
example. Iraw up a note
with a realistie interest rale
and a *pc*ifkd repayment
schedule.
• if you contribute to a
charity something of value
other than money, arrange
to have it appraised to
protect your lax deduction.
If the item i* of great value,
get professional advice; it
may Iw better for tax pur
pose* to make special ar
rangrtncni* for the transfer
of ownership.
• Because of complexities
in the lax laws, a great many
taxpayer* have more taxes
than they owe withheld from
their paycheck*, thereby
getting a refund al the end
of the year. If you like the
refund mi much you do ma
mind giving Cisele Sam an
interest free loan, that'*
fine, thherwise. *re your
employer about adjusting
the withholding rale to
hrtng it itkirr in line with the
taxes you will actually owe.
• If you suffer a casually
loss tfrom fire, storm or
t'.rfl) establish proof that
the sudden, unexpected
event did occur, and that it
caused a Io** to you in
excess of 1100. If it's a theft,
report it in writing to the
.police. Take photograph*. If
you don't act at once to
document your deduction, it
may be too late.
• If any financial dealing,
especially investment*, lax
consequence* should rarely
be the primary considera
lion, but they should never
be ignored. Promising
opportunities can turn «our

because ol the tax effect*.
The Michigan Association
of CPA* say* tax planning
might be summarized in a

few words; in all buxine** or
financial activities, think
about the tax consequences.

40-Hour Fast

This Week's Message

To Aid Hungry
Beginning on Good Friday
al I pjn. the youth of Grace
Lutheran Church will be ob
serving a Fast For World
Hunger. The fast will be
concluded Easter morning al
their 6 a.m. Sunrise Service.
"The youth will be fasting
for over *0 hours for esaen
Hally two reasons. The first
is Io use the lime of fasting
to contemplate the meaning
of the suffering and death of
Jesus Christ. During most of
the regular eating hours,
they will assemble al the
church (or meditation and
prayer." He' Timothy Roth
fuss said.
The second reason for the
U»t is a growing concern for
World Hunger This will
g*ve us the rare opportunity

to personally experience
hunger...beyond the fadlsh
diets. It is to sensitixe our
selves to the devistating ef­
fects of real hunger, which
an increasing number of
people throughout the world
are forced to deal with each
day of their lives." Rev.
Rothfuss said.
"In order to help relieve
this spreading world prob
lem. the participating youth
arc inviting contributions
from the entire Christian
community. Donations may
be made through a special
gift earmarked for world
hunger.* to Grace Lutheran
Church. 238 E. North St..
Hastings. 'I was hungry, and
you gave me food*...." I Matt.
25:351. Rev. Rothfusa said.

Pilate questioned. "Whet to truth?" h is
poswble to be m the very presence of troth
and be Hind to it. The Christian meaaags has
consistently been that Jesus is God and the
Son of God. He is troth, therefore aS his
words and deeds are true. Yet today, as in
Prieto's court centuries ago. the same
question is heard. "What io truth?"
Pokticai turmoil was not unique to old
Rome. It to here today, in intensified form. So
also are the same old problems, where to
place blame, how to please protesters, what
to do with offenders. Pilate lived, as many do
today. In ■ world of intrigue, suspicion,
compromise end betrayal. No wonder he
could not recognize Troth standing right
before him. To sacrifice simpkeity of Me
style, transparency of motives and honesty in
reiotonthipe ■ to dose the door to troth
Easter is a good time to look again st
Jesus h«s nature, tea teachings and hrs
mrssron tf we regard the world about us as
being beyond redempbon. or worse yet. if we
see it as needmg no redemption, then the
cross symboioes a most colossal waste of
drvine resource and the greatest possible
mejudgment on the part of God.

But if the bbfceal account of the Cruci­
fixion and Resurrection to true, naked iogre
alone should lead us to thankfol appropria­
tion of the grace our risen lord offers. The
centuries accumulate in elent wetness to the
fact that mon left to himeeif aril move towerd
self destruction. But the grace of God
through Christ is revealed In a thousand
redemptive ways Men's lives have been
changed. Negative and sinful habits of a
lifetime have been replaced by the positive
and beneficent To reeky see Christ, to
receive grace at hie hand, to tovs him, to to
see the whole world through Afferent eyes.
The love of God begets love of neighbor and
love of troth.
Wo wonder in apprehension and disgust st
the kidnap kilinga in Birmingham and the
organized butdiery in Uganda. These things
do not grow from the seedbed of devotion to
Christ They are the consequences of
txridmg a culture which ignores the loving
offer of God's grace The very qurcksM and
best way to correct world conditions to to
correct them in our own hearts Forgiveness
and newness of Me can be ours. It can be
shared vwth others, and shared again. Herein
is hope for the world. Easter • a fine time to
consider afresh live resurrection of Jesus end
the renewal it makes possible for us eB.

The stoiy is told of o rich man who wanted to help
a poor carpenter and hrs family. He hired the carpenter
to build a house and instructed him to use the very
finest materials available He made sure the carpenter
understood that the house was to be strong and
beautiful. Then the rich man went away on a top.
Soon the carpenter though to haneeif. "My boas is
away, and I can use shoddy materials and neglect the
supporting work that w* not show The house wrl be
weak, but no one w« know it And I w-a come out
much further ahead of this deail" So ho built a house
that would not last
When the rich man returned, the carpenter said.
"Here is your house " "Thank you," said the rich man.
"Here is the deed and the keys. I'm giving the house to
you " And the carpenter grieved that he had robbed
himself.
We win have to live in the house that we burid. If
we do shabby work, we will only cut ourselves short.
How sad that many think they are doing themselves a
favor by not seeking the wdl of God If I fail to worship
God and seek his will. the principle one I Injure is
myself. I will keep myself from enjoying his blessings,
now and later.
The Bible says, "Bo not deceived; God is not
mocked. For whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he
also reap" I Galatians 6:7).

ed by Mrs. Houvener who
said she prefer* to continue
to pay the deputy from her
own salary.
Reaident* authorized the
township lioard to request
two allocated mills from the
Barry County Tax Alloca
tion Board. In the past, the
township has received one
allocated mill from the
county tax. An additional
mill w ould generate an extra
&gt;17,000 f« the township.
The budget presented

way we can continue the
present level of service*
without raising the taxes
you pay." said Supervisor
Joel Welty.

amount &gt;18,000 is owed on a
fire truck. &gt;9.000 for park
development. &gt;24.240 fur
road work, and &gt;1.800 for
expense* al the Pine Lake

The anticipated revenue
in the budget as presented
Saturday did not include
fund* the township will re­
ceive from extra voted mill
age (one and one half mill*
voted for road improve
menu and one mill for public
safety service*).
Welty reported that the
township's case against the
16 per eent equalization
factor imposed by the Slate

County probably will come

Helen Bostic of the Pro­
vincial House at lensing
told The Banner that the
Hastings facility normally is
occupied st caparily and
there is often a waiting list
for patients to enter the
home.
Provincial House had pro
poaed to construct an addi
lion to the facility in which
to house a new laundry.
Space occupied by the exist
ing laundry was to have
been converted into a 3 bed
ward. This would have in­
creased the home'* full bed
complement to 114 beds.

king term rare bed* in ex­
cess of the need. To add

lion.

Retzen's action had con
currencr* from the South­

tem* Agency and the state
administrator of the federal

sion by the Division of

The following is from lhe
Banner editorial of April
4lh:
.
“Iei it* •w’pe lhe debate to
kept on a high, logical bast*..
The opponent* have ask­
ed rhetorically what the
DDA will do. The obvious
answer, up to now, was the
(sic) no one rould tell for
sure. The stale law say* that
a DDA can do (sie). Until the
DDA to created and appoint
cd. no one can say for sure
what it will do."
Good grief. I have seen
that kind of "high" before. It
is not very logical.
All I can make of lhe DDA
is an agency with undefined
power, the power lo imple
ment a “master plan." and
an undefined master plan, al
that. The editorial also re­
commended that members
be appointed “so the voters
would see in advance the
kind of people wbo will lead
lhe agency."
By all mean*, let u* ace
lhe kind of people who seek
an undefined power to im­
pose an undefined master
plan. The American philo­
sopher Ayn Rand once ob­
served that power lust to a
weed that grow* in vacant

excellent opportunity to test
lhe validity of her observe

business comer, crashed into a jewelry
store - the gas tank exploded, the store

loss. The driver had 410,000 property
damage auto insurance. An 'excess' or
'umbrella liability’ policy costing pennies
a day, from Coleman Agency, would
have fully paid this loss.

Red Cross March Cam
paign Chairman Don Brehm
railed the Barry County
fund raising effort "a strong
drive down the middle that
ended short of the goal.” The
Chapter raised $719 of its
$3,000 goal.
Brehm said, however, that
hr considered the March
Campaign a success. “Dur­
ing March we told thousands
of people in Barry County
about the services and pro
grams Red Cross provides
right here in our community.
We reached over three thou
sand people in March with
information to help them
live more safely and handle
accident situations. And. we
have more usable dollars
than we've had before be
cause we managed our earn
paign in the most cost
efficient manner possible ”
Brehm said that the Barry
County Red (tom is still
having financial problems
that only dotiars can solve
"simply because if lakes
money to operate, nc matter
how carefully we budget "

Speaking of worthwhile, the dekghtful
weather has made a lot of dry* worthwMe.
Think back a few weeks to that long, coM
winte; Did you ever hear so many com­
plaints about the weather?
Maybe wo are just more appreciative than
usual. But so many people have boon
cheerful and thankfid for the warmth and
sunshine
One of the best days recently was the
birthday of a local business woman.
It started off with a package from her two
children, wrapped with-as she put rt-a
whole roil of tape and too much wrapping
paper. Inside wee a atmoty written mceaaga.

aeyingdiot no one ever had a better mom
than they.
Thon she took haff a day off. and enjoyed a
game of goff.
FoBowed by a long, teieuraty lunch with a
friend.
And a surprise gift of a aingte rose, from
another longtime friend.
And finely, dinner gr«ed by her husband,
complete qfh wine.
Could anyone have a batter day?
Funny how the economy improves If
you're in office. Last fak. according to Jimmy
Carter, the economy woe just terrible. That's
when he waa running for office.
In the face of that terrible economy, a tax
refund to everyone Bounded pretty good. So
a lot of people fail for it.
But by April, when Carter has been in
office lees then three months, suddenly the
economy looks a lot better. Or at least ao ho
aays. So the economy doesn't need art that
loose cash any more.
He somehow overlooks the fact that If the
economy io looking better. It io the continua­
tion of a trend which started long before he
woe in office.
He eteo hasn't mentioned latsfy the bonus
which he promised to Social Security
recipients, to help them through the cold,
unusually expensive winter. Guess that
vanished with the snow....

Do

nado is to seek shelter at
owe. Dr. Loftus said pre
ferabiy in a storm cellar,
underground excavation. or
rteeiframed or reinforced
concrete building.
In an office building, go to
aa interior hallway on the
lowest floor or to a designat­
ed shelter area "Workers in
a factory should move quick­
ly to the aortkn of the plant
offering the greatest protec­
tion."
In the home, the basement
offer* the greatest safety.
Dr. Loftus continued. In
homes without basements,
seek cover in the center part
of ’.he house on the fewest
floor in a small space such as
a bathroom or closet, or
under sturdy furniture.
Keep some windows open on
the side away from the ex­
ported twister, but stay
away from them, he went
on.
"Mobile homes are parti
eularly vulnerable to de­
structive winds," he said.
"Secure tiedowns will help
to prevent overturning and
lessen danger. In limes of
danger from tornadoes, a
warden should be appointed
in mobile home parks to
watch the skicv and listen
for radio warnings. A hand
siren should be kept on hand
to alert residents.
"The best thing Is to get
out of a mobile home when a
twister threatens. Dr. Lof­
tus emphasized. "Endanger
ed residents should seek
refuge in a nearby sturdy
building or. as a last resort,
in a ditch, culvert or ra
vine. In any case, do not
remain in the mobile home."
Students and school per
sonnet should follow pre­
arranged plans to go to an
interior hallway on the few­
est floor for safety. They
should stay out of audi
tori urns, gymnasiums, or
other structure* with wide,
free span roof*. II a building
i* not of reinforced con
st ruction, go quickly to a
nearby reinforced building,
or to a ravine or open ditch
and be flat.
"If you are in open
country and there is no time

However, a certain Robert Jones “I, presi­

end History
BY STAN CLANTON
MtaMcae
Church a4 Christ

If is valid to approach the Bible from an historical
viewpoint God participated in actual history and
revealed himself in Christ to eyewitnesses. It's
because of the testimony of men of the first century
that we beSevo in Christ today IJohn 17.20. Acts 1:8,
10:40 42).
Some critics have asserted that the Bible is full of
“good stories." but that the various peoples and
places were unhistorical. Ironically enough, these
same critics will affirm that the Bible is still
"theological* sound." and car. be fruited in what it
teaches from a itiiigious jaaidpoim.
"
'
It must be kept in mind that the doctrines ol
scripture are rooted and grounded upon that which
was done in history. Faith cannot be divorced from
history. Our redemption is based upon the central
doctrines ol the death, burial, and resurrection of
Chr.it. If these are not actual historic events, than our
redemption fails How can we believe that the Bible is
sound "theologically” if we believe that it was erected
on events that did not actually take place?
To the honest searcher it is very important to
know whether the Bible is accurate historically. If the
historic framework (geography, political rulers, cul­
tural aspects) cannot be trusted, we cannot know for
sure that we have an accurate account of lhe disputed
supernatural framework (miracles, revelation, virgin
birth, resurrection of Christ).
Yet no one is asserting that provinn the Bible to
be historically accurate proves directly that it is divine
and inspired of God. For example, archaeology does
not directly "prove the Bible." Other books may be
historically accurate and still bo uninspired.
Archaeology does prove the scriptures speak ac­
curately in their historical details And if the Bible is
true in all historical I acts that can be confirmed by
outside sources, then it is also likely to be true and
accurate in those facts that are doubled by some, that
is. the supernatural.
Believing that lhe word of God true is the first
step toward becoming a Christian. Historical eviden­
ces, among other valid evidences, show us that there
is a reasonable basis for that belief.

We find al sorts of measuring iiticks:
background, color, shape, degree, age, girth,
complexion, height and more. Rather than
using these characteristics to paint the other
persons uniqueness, we use them as
yardsticks to rule them out. Without making
the effort to find out who they are and what
they think and how they live and where
they're going, we decide all that ahead of

We lose because we prevent the opportu­

could give and receive. We cut ourselves off
from persons whose "differences" could
benefit us. We limit our vision of fife by our
narrow circle ol persons who fit our bill - and
they arc fowl And we suffocate then our
own growth as persons.
And worst of aH. we ignore a fellow human
who has also been created uniquely in the
image of God. and a fellow traveler for whom
Jesus has also given his life.
Practitioners of prejudgment are often

Road Ditches on various roads have
been plowed with farm machinery,
which disrupts the shape of road grades
and ditches until in many instances the
Road Commission has to reshape sec­
tions of the ditches and shoulders of the
road. Also in some instances field soil is
dropped on the road surfaces. These are
in violation of the statutes as defined in
Section 121 and 126 of the Highway and
Bridge Laws. Those operating farm or
other equipment are urged to cooperate
in order that these damages to the roads
will be eliminated.

1977-78 City Budget
Thr public hearing on the
1977 78 Hastings t1.IM.782
budget waa held al 8 p.m.
Monday. Apnl 25. during
thr regular meeting of the
rity council and not a virit
ing citizen wa* present e*
jieeially for lhe hearing.
The budget. 193.212 high
er than the 1978 77 railmate
&lt;&gt;f expenditure*. wa* adopt
ed unanimoudy It require*
the identical lai rale as
let led last summer. 16.2
mills per tl.(MX) valuation
designed to bring in
5474.200 in general property
taxes and another 597.900 in
personal taxes.
Mayor Ivan Snyder read a
letter from Mr*. Mary
Sparkman, president of the
Hastings Area Chamber of
Commerce, urging the ap
point mrnt of directors of the
new Downtown Itevelop
mrnt Authority.
Mrs. Sparkman wrote
that it has been nearly six
week* since the adoption of
lhe controversial ordinance,
and suggested that once ap
pointed, the board can liegin
■•orking cooperatively with
krai officials and private
ci turns to prepare ar. order
ly master plan foe develop
men I of the downtown.
"This community ran no
longer remain indifferent lo
its
future
commercial
growth." Mr. Sparkman
wrote, “ft is vital to lhe
economic well being of our
community that a strong
healthy business *eitor pre
vail, ft is vital to creating
yobs and sharing the proper
ty lax responsibility
As a member of lhe
Hastings lily Council tn
IWil. you are aware that the
city's master plan pointed
out steps to revitalise the
area, and plan for orderly
growth. In 14 year* there
has been no positive pro­
gram &lt;&gt;f follow through."
Mrs. Sparkman said lhe
biggest factor i« the lark of
an organized means to ic
■ omplish the task. Writers
of the master plan said a
partnership between the
business district and rity is
necessary to carry out the
objectives. This partnership
they said would enable both
the city and business com
munily to achieve goals
which neither could accom­
plish separately.
"Council approved of the
Downtown Development
Authority is the apparent
result of a feeling that a

partnership is of lhe utmost
necessity to improving and
developing lhe business dis
trirt."
Mrs Sparkman referred
to the petition drive to place
lhe DDA on lhe ballot and
said lhe drive should yield
enough signatures. "How
ever, since many sign peti­
tions tor a variety of rra
sons, these signatures
should not be construed lo
mean that all are against lhe
Downtown Development
Authority."
"Appointment of the
board will permit the public
to see first hand, that ideas
generated and solutions ad
vanced. arc not going lo
cause the sky lo fall or push
the rity into financial ruin.
“Mayor Snyder,
we
strongly urge you to formu
lire lhe partnership, and
liegin now lhe process of
sppoinlmg the directors to
the board of the Downtown
Development Authority."

Mr*. Sparkman concluded
Mayor Snyder said he has
been holding off appoint
rnent of DDA director*
awaiting petition* for a
referendum. Hr said he did
not want to appear as at
tempting to sway anyone
“one way or another." Al
derrnan David J asperse said
the mayor would hr
in
trouble one way or another."
and moved to receive thr
letter and place it on file.
Thr motion carried.
Mayor Snyder indicated
he would hold off on making
the appointment*
After petition* calling for
a referendum «u the or'dinance are received, the
council ha* 30 days in which
to either make arrange
mrnt* for an election or
rescind thr ordinance.

1977-78 City Budget
Thr public hearing on the
1977 78 Hastings t1.IM.782
budget was hrW al 8 p.m.
Monday. April 25. during
thr regular merting of the
rtty council and mH a vi*it
ing riturn wa» present e*
preially for lhe hearing.
The budget. 193.212 high
er than the 1978 77 railmate
&lt;&gt;f expenditure*. waa adopt
ed unanimously It require*
thr identical lai rale as
levied last summer, 16.2
mills per II.(MX) valuation
designed to bring in
5471.200 in general property
taxes and another 597.900 in
personal taxes.
Mayor Ivan Snyder read a
letter from Mr*. Mary
Sparkman, president of the
Hastings Area Chamber of
Commerce, urging the ap
poinlment of directors of the
new Downtown Develop
tnrnt Authority.
Mrs. Spaekman wrote
that it has been nearly six
week* since the adoption of
the controversial ordinance,
and suggested that once ap
pointed, the board can liegin
working cooperatively with
krai officials and private
ci turns to prepare ar. order
ly master plan for develop
men I of the downtown.
This community ran no
longer remain indifferent to
its
future
commercial
growth." Mr. Sparkman
wrote, “fl is vital to lhe
economic well being of our
community that a strung
healthy business sector pre
vail, ft is vital to creating
jobs and sharing the proper
ty Im responsibility
As a member of lhe
Hastings lily Council tn
1963. you are aware that the
city's master plan pointed
out steps to revitalise the
area, and plan for orderly
growth. In 14 year* there
ha* been no positive pro­
gram &lt;&gt;f follow through."
Mrs. Spaekman said lhe
biggest factor is the lack of
an organized means to ac
lomplish the task. Writers
of the master plan said a
partnership between the
business district and city is
necessary to carry out the
objectives. This partnership
they said would enable both
the city and business com
munily to achieve goals
which neither could accom­
plish separately.
"Council approved of the
Downtown Development
Authority is the apparent
result of a feeling that a

partnership is of lhe utmost
necessity to improving and
developing lhe business dis
trirt."
Mrs Sparkman referred
to the petition drive to place
the DDA on lhe ballot and
said the drive should yield
enough signatures. "How
ever, since many sign petiturns tor a variety of res
son*, these signatures
should not be construed to
mean that all are against lhe
Downtown Development
Authority."
"Appointment of the
board will permit the public
to *er first hand, that ideas
generated and solutions ad
vanced. arc not going to
cause the sky to fall or push
the city into financial ruin.
"Mayor
Snyder,
we
strongly urge you to formu
lire the partnership, and
liegin now lhe process of
sppoinlmg the directors to
the board of the Downtown
Development Authority."

Mr*. Sparkman concluded
Mayor Snyder said he has
been holding off appoint
rnent of DDA director*
awaiting petition* for a
referendum. Hr said he did
not want to appear as at
tempting to sway anyone
“one way or another." Al
derman David Jasperse said
the mayor would hr
in
trouble one way or another."
and moved to receive the
letter and plare it on file.
Thr motion carried.
Mayor Snyder indicated
he would hold off on making
lhe appointments
After petitions calling for
a referendum Mt the or'dinance are received, the
council has 30 days in which
to either make arrange
ments fur an election or
rescind thr ordinance.

that enveloped the room.
She called the children and
girt them safely out of the

neighbors. all of whom re-pondrd and kept thr fire
confined tn the one room
until it could be extinguishcd. The washer and drier

Fortunately the Tire did not
burn through thr ceiling or

recently remodeled and re­
Finished suffered quite a lot
of damage from smoke and

helped in any way in thi*
misfortune.

rii-ogi.i/ing the seriousness
of thi problem discovering
tn our chagrin that the more
we save, the more we pay!
There is every indication
y»ur strategy is nothing
more than a pound of cure,
when tn ounce of prevention
would hair sufficed in the
first place. What in the
world is innovative or dtf
fi-rent al.Hit more taxes?
Why is it .ill politicians seem
inherently responsive to our
domestic woe. with the
everlasting tax increase as a
cure all?
The last thing Michigan,
already reeling under high
unemployment, nerds is

Cong
Garry
Drown i« I'onvinced. and so
am I. that your energy
message last week prompt

Point. expansion for Rattle
Creek indeed a mayor loss
for our depressed region.
Conceded. much of the
blame is dur to the rrcalatraruv of the American
motorist, who surely nerd* a
good stiff dose of medicine,
but hr dorsnt deserve a
knock out punch There
ARE other altemativrs.
On Easter weekend my
wife and I had the rare
pleasure of visiting our
families in Illinois Dre mg a
steady ’»’• mph tit’s the law!)
we pa.sc-d the time by
counting ear*. Incredibly, by
our arrival in Havana a trip
of :17| mile, covered in right
hours ."#3 drivers had rip­
ped by us. m&gt;ot at an
average .peed nf 7U mph. All
candidates for citations and
all lawbreakers.
Dur trip netted 30 mpg
wit h the i cyl. car compared
l» 2» mpg making the same
trip on other occasions in our
351 VH a savings of more
than Ml"..' The simple for
mula less speed plus small
er cars equals waste con­
trol.
As I recall. Mr. Prrsi
dent, the law wax duly en­
acted and pa»»ed to CON
SERVE energy, not to men
tion the saving of lives.
Obviously, thr highway pa
trol has given up in com­
plete frustration.
We heard nothing in your
energy message. Mr Presi
deni, about these intolerable
highway conditions which, if
corrected would have an
immediate positive reaction
toward your goal* of reduc
rd gas consumption again
without a tax hike. The
American car owners need
s.itr.t onr with leadership to
make them honest drivers
again and reinstitute that
old adage, "driving is a pri
vilegc i necessity?) not a
right."
For instance. Mr. I*re*i•lent. why not*
Install speed inhibitors,
governors, as it were, as
standard equipment:
Shorter hauls for trucks

How about smaller ve-

hides to transport athlete*
to and from sporting event*
and car* for the booster*
big huse* are the most
offensive in ga* waste:
Fenallies with CLOUT
far ignoring speed limit*.
These arc just a few of the
way* to fight the problem
without raising taxes.
Motorists generally obey
cd the 55 limit but were
angered when the trucking
industry saw fit to make a
mockery of the state police
and a subsequent shambles
of the speed limit with the
seamy "Smoky" routine.
During thi* time it was e*
tahlished that shower
speeds saved live*. (Public
•afety b another story. But
for that I call your attention
to George F. Will* column of
April 15 (Grand Rapid*
Pres*). a gripping analysis of
our number one health prob
lent).
A* a typical motorist who
likes to "go" now and then, I
would rather have the free
dom to travel at a slower
speed than be deprived of
the privilege or be priced off
the highway Increased taxr« will hit the auto in­
dustry. the elderly and the
driver who ran least afford
to pay.
Your message sounded
like a requiem for a heavy
weight motorist! la-t’s stop
picking on the auto industry
and all put a shoulder to the
wheel. Detroit has the
American ingenuity to meet
the challenge but it simply
cannot satisfy both the
government restrictions and
the detailed out moiled de
»irrs of the motoring public.
Com'on. Mr. President,
you can do belter than that.
The price tag on the afore
mentioned proposals would

amount to "peanut** what
will YOURS cost? It is me
urgent concern that in this
rase Congress will NOT be
inclined to accept your pack­
age and then rai»e their own

inflation it surely trill cause.

This Week’s Message
PLEASING GOD
by DOANE JONES. Minuter
Hasting* Church of Christ
A friend used to brag. "I can get any girt I
please " Just as we started to chaBenge hr*
statement he would add, "I just can't find
any I pbiasel"
Young men move heaven and earth
wooing tbe girl of their dream* In the end
the one who p-ovvte* what she dwsuos &lt;s the
one who wms the girl A yoc_g man may be
thrilled by what ho is able to offer, only to
learn that what he valued so highly does not
please the young lady he is pursuing All
efforts are lor naught, wasted unless she rs
pleased
Our relationship with God works the same
way. God's favor is not given in return for
what we offer, it is given when we offer what
pleases Hun
What does God want? He wants our faith.
The BMn says. "Without faith it Is impossr
Ue to please Hun." Heb. 116 We can offer
fortune* or service or saenfee. but we . o not
please Hun until we give God our faith
What is this forth God wants? Faith the
Kind Hutt pleases God is trusting God
enough to do as He asks us to do It is not n
mystical roncept. but r* our rightful response
lo hearing His Word, (Ro. 10.17) It is not |ust
ticlieving. but txrliirvmg strongly enough lo
act on that belief As onu old preacher said
"II lie lord say jump through dat wail, it i«
my part to lump, and Hrs part to supply de
lro*cl Faith itiat dot's not obediently act as
God instructs is not faith.

James lias illustrated what faith is tread
James 2.14 26i First, note that Jerne* says
even devil* believe in God They have
knowledge of God but fail to please Hun
because they de not trust God enough to do
as Hr ask* Hence James rorxJude* then
faith is do.xl If we float. but do not do. it ts
not fadh
James .Uso pants us to Abraham, who has
always been outriaoduig example of faithful
ness though Abraham cleaned to trust God
completely. James My* hr* faith was tot
accepted until after lie did what God asked
James concludes that true faith m not sunply
behevmg, but behoving strongly enouijh m
what God promises that we will take the
necessary action.
Sometimes. hko the rejected suitor, we fad
to please God by substituting our own
response lor what God asks of u« This also
is not faith Jesus Mid that d ts not llmse that
do things, but tlvjMi that do what He wills
that pfe-isc God. (Malt 7 211. Faith is not just
dong something, Faith is trustsvg God
enough to do as He asks
I* God pleased with you? Have known that
He is there and yet. Imvo never sought Him
as Savior? Have you read m Hrs Word that
those who tiefcevr m Christ should repent
and bt. baptized for the forgiveness of their
sms? Did you obey HI* command? Do you
subsilutn your own ideas. or those of another
man. for the action God ask* you to take?
Without f*th it •* impossible to please
God Faith .* believing God enough to do
what Hi* Word tells you you should do.

Value System
BY NTAN CLANTON

Church of Christ

Each of us ha* hu. own value system Soms
thing* have gteatw poonty than others. The fact that
we consider so&lt;ne things more important or worth­
while than other thmgs deternwws most of where we
put our tune and energy
Jesus had his value system We should take
special note of what tie valued becouso, as tlie Son of
God. h&lt;- saw things a* th«-v really are Consider what
Jesus thought was unpor1a.it
Jesus greatly valued the soul of man. Man rejoice
at job advancements and now homos, but God end his
angels toj&amp;co over evon one lost soul that turns to
truth (Luke 15). Since the body dies, "what is a man
profited, it he shad gam the whole world, and lose bis
own soul?" (Matthew 1626).
Jesus greatly valued a right relationship with God.
Real happiness was knowmg that your name is written
m heaven Huke 10 20&gt; In the sermon on the mount,
he taught mat nottwvg is more precious than a right
relationship with God (Matthew 529 30). Rather than
seeking honor among men. he taught that men should
bo moi o concerned about honor before God at the
resurrection Huke 14:12 14).
Jew* did not put great value on material thmgs
He taught that a man's life is not measured by what he
possessor (Luke 12.15). Since the things of this world
would pass away. )mj urged that men lay up treasure in
hjovm (Matthew 6:19 20).
The true value* can be learned from the Son of
God. Our trust m him will lead u» to accept his
evaluation of that which should hove priority in our

By VKTW1 SISSON
Mrs. Barry Donaldson had
an experience Saturday eve
ning at her home on Jordan
Road that she would not
care to repeal and one that
she warns others to avoid if
possible. Barry had done a
fine job of mowing the big
lawn with the riding mower
and Bonnie had traded tbe
job of washing dishes for
that of trimming around the
trees and .hruhs with a
smaller mower with Brian
When she had finished
this job to her satisfaction,
she derided to add a little
more to the lawn by mowing
vxnr around the edge that
hadn't been mowed thi.
year. Out near the barn
ramp she struck what she
supposed was a stone and a
part of it flew out and hit her
in the leg below the knee.
The wound bled profusely
and the pain waa severe. She
managed to get back', to the
house but waa unable io stop
the bleeding.
Her mother. Mrs. Elwin
Curtis, who live, next door,
was called and succeeded in
lessening the flow uf blood
and bandaged the wound.
After Barry got home from
work, they decided that on
the way lo Sunday School
they would go to emergency,
al Pennock Hospital and she
would get a t.tanua shot a. a
precaution. However the
nurse and the doctor on dul y
examined the injury and in
probing in the drop cut
found and removed about a
two inch piece of wire that
had been embedded in the
flesh and had cut through an
artery. Due lo the danger of
infection the doctor did not
think it wise to sew up the
eut. Bonnie will have to be
very careful for some lime
and will have io have it
examined frequently. Power
mowers are very nice and
certainly make the care of a
lawn much simpler but they
are also a very dangerous
piece of machinery and we
so often hear of serious
injuries that result from
their um.
The fine weather tbe past
few days has been ideal for
the farmers and plowing has
been the order of the day. at
least three local farmers
planted acres of pea* Mon
day for tbe Uke Odessa
canning plant. We under
.land that at least 500 acres
of pea* have been planted
foe them to date.

Devoted to the Interests of Barry County Since 1858

Barry Leads in
Welfare Job Training I
Barry County is the first
rural county to develop a
program.of education and
job training foe welfare re
ripients that is receiving
much attention from other
counties interested in simi­
lar programs.
The approach to the prob
lem of getting people off the
welfare roles is a three­
pronged one: basic educa
tion in reading and writing,
working with the individual
to improve his appearance
and other job seeking skills
such as interviewing, filling
out applications and writing
resumes, and actually hav­
ing people work of! their
grants at city, township,
county and other non profit
facilities.
The educational part of
the program is being co
ducted by the Barry Ionia
County Adult Basic Educa
tion above lhe J.C. Penney
store in downtown Hastings.
The school is a part of
Lakewood Community Edu
cation working in roopera
lion with the Hastings Area
Schools.
The school actually open­
ed last September when
Lakewood Community Edu­
cation and the Barry County
Department of Social Ser
vices agreed on a need for

more education and job
readiness for general aaaialonce recipient..
Since then more than 250
three hours a day. five days
a week. The long unused
rooms, now clean and bright
with paint and wallpaper
house 39 to 40 students per
day who are working on
their GED (Graduate Equi
valency Diploma).
Attendance is mandatory
as a condition foe receiving
the assistance grant and at­
tendance is carefully moni
loced. Regular evaluations
determine whether students
continue in the program.
Staffing the school arc
three teachers: Sue Ross,
coordinator. Sally Fullerton
and Robert Vaccaro and
various teacher aides. Hill
Haug of luikewood Commu­
nity Schools is director.
Also attending the mor
ning sessions are 10 15

number of juveniles attend
ing under the direction of
the probate court.

arc now required to attend

rd to have two job inter

the WIN program they are
expected to continue their
active job seeking.
Beginning in early April
the program caponed to
include ADC fathers who
are to lake required to basic
education classes or high
school completion classes at
the local high schools or
work at mandatory work
sites. AIM’ mothers of older
children will be joining Ito
program at a later date.
The Harry County AIK'
program is taking it* cue
from Kent County which
began a similar program
almost a year ago.
Practicality is the key­
note. There arc strong dose*
of reading and arithmetic
with regular sessions aimed
at making the students more
employable. Students write
letter* of application,
resumes, have personal ap
pearanee discussion*, mock

family budgeting, costs ol
operating a car and tenant
landlord rights and respon
aibilities. Speakers from the
Hastings area have included
session* &lt;&gt;n family planning,
home energy saving, wise
food buying and insurance
buying. Free hair cuts are
another fringe benefit.

craft coordinator of the
Barry County Red Cross
Chapter, said. In Barry
County during 1976. there
were three personal injury
boating accidents with a
total of six people injured,
and one fatal boating acci
dent. Then- were also six
property damage boating
accident*, according to lhe
Harry County Sheriffs De­
partment.
"Most of these accidents
rould have been avoided if
lhe boat operator had known
the safe way to operate hi*
craft.
There are two basic prac
tire* to follow." Sutton con­
tinued. "First, take a course
in safe lioal operation and
bred the instructions. Sec
ond. know lhe rules of the
waterways and follow them.
Keep in mind the differences
between operation of a small
watercraft and an aulomo
bile. One. the traffic rules
are different. Two. the high
way slay* pul- the water
way doesn't."
Sutton gave these «ug
gestion* lor safety on and in
the water:
All Istal users should
know how to swim and know
first aid. espically artificial
respiration, since boats op
erate far from medical at­
tention. The Harry lounty
Red Cross t eache* first aid,
swimming life saving and a
variety of courses in small
craft safety.
The law require* that the

them al all time*, and every­
one should wear them when

number -don't overload lhe
craft.
Don't overpower your
boat. Never exceed the
horsepower rating for your
boat.
Don't smoke while refuel­
ing.
Don't let passengers stand
up in a small boat or sit on
the gunwales while you are
under way.
Equip boat with required
and essential gear -anchor,
PFD'soars, boat hook, extra
lines, fire extinguishers, tool
kit. and first aid kit. Run­
ning lights are a must for
night lime operation.
Check U.S. Weather Ser
vice forecasts before taking
your boat out on open water.
Take a transistor radio along
to keep posted on changing
weather renditions.
Most boats, if capsized or
swamped, will stay on the
surface, so stay with the
boat after such accidents
until help arrives. But in
dangerous or extremely cold
water, try to get lo shore as
fast as possible.
Sutton listed these rules
of the waterways:
When boats are meeting
in or near a head on position.
each should keep to the
right.
“When boats are in a
crossing position, lhe one on
the right has the right of
way. When one boat is
overtaking another, the one
being overtaken has the
right of way.
I*owrr boats should give
way to manually propelled
or sail boats unless lhe sail
boat is overtaking lhe power
boat. Small sail boats in a
channel should give way to
power boats which cannot
operate outside the channel.
Sail boats to windward
should keep out of the way
of sail boat* to leeward.
"Safety-conscious skip­
pers make a point of know­
ing the swimming ability of
everyone on board."Sutton
said. "If a person goes
overboard accidentally, res
rue procedures depend on
what zbility the man in the
waler has to help himself. If
lhe man overboard can
swim, a life saving device
ean be thrown to him. The
boat is stopped, the victim
twimt to it. and is pulled
aboard
When a weak or non
swimmer falls overboard,
first swing the stern away
from the side from which be
fell. Toss him a flotation
device if he is not already
wearing ooc. and promptly
maneuver the boat back to
him. Keep a eio*e watch on
him at ail times and make
the approarh as you would
to a moorteg at reduced
speed and slightly to wind
ward if pouible. Shut off the
motor within a few feel of
lhe victim, aad bring him
aboard."
"1*1 me emphasize," Sut­
ton said, "the need for
training. We can offer a few
reminder* here, but every­
one really needs lo take an
approved course".
Small Craft courses are
available by calling the Bar­
ry County SbertT* Depart­
ment at 945-3441. or the

You have an unusual col­
lection ot Colombian masks
that you would like to dis­
play in your in ing room. But
somehow your present color
scheme does not seem to
complement these aid facts,
nor the new decorating ideas
you have planned to give the
room a "new- look."
What is needed is a wall­
covering that would avail
both harmony and integra­
tion to even the most eclectic
decorating arrangement.
Wallcovcrinm play an in­
tegral role in the personality
of a room, (or they can en­
hance or detract from the
appearance of even your
most valuable prized posses­
sion. e g.. Mona Lisa!
A new line of Belgian
linen wallcoverings by Duralee includes a unique neutral
pattern wliich softly drama­
tizes a dimensional approach
- - wavy lines printed apinst
the natural horizon weases
ol the ground paper. Belgian
linen denotes not only dis­
tinctive design and quality,
but wallcoverings that arc
durable and subject to very
little maintenance.
A neutral wallcovering en­
ables you to not only mil
and match the mood of the
room with different furnish­
ings and an objects, but also
to enhance the room with
variety of color using differ­
ent fabric patterns. The blue
color of the wall (Minting,
two upholstered stools, and
yes, even blue candy, is re­
peated as an accent against
the predominant earth tones
in the room pictured.
The pillows, which add a
splash of bright color, in­
clude a turquoise rust white
print on linen and cotton,
plus two solids, burnt orange
and pumpkin.

The T-shapcd cocktail
table illustrates another
space-saving concept. Like
filling the right piece in a
puzzle, the elongated narrow
shape of the table smoothly
joins the chair and sofa
Being of the right size and
height, there arc no limits to
its use. eg., showcase for
your decorative items, extra
buffet table and work area
Be imaginative ... build a
platform along the wall,
cover it tn fabric, and create
a l-vok whereby your most
beloved objects can be
viewed individually as well
as in juxtaposition to the
rest of the furnishings in the
room.
If you arc considering di­
viding a room through the
use of a screen, why not cov­
er it in a Belgian linen wall­
covering? You can use the
same pattern as on the walls

or select another pattern as
a contrast.
As an added touch, wl.y
not cover your lampshades,

Q. Various publications
recommend installing 6-inch
thick batts of fiber glass in­
sulation (R-19) in the side­
walls. We are building a
home using 2x4's. not
2x6*9. Can we squeeze the
recomended 6-inches of in­
sulation into the wall Mud
pockets?
A. Generally, the thicker
the insulation, tK more ef­
fective it is. However, if you
were to compress the insu­
lation. you would greatly
teaucc its thermal resistance
properties. In this case, the
additional cost for 6 inch
thick batts (R-19) would
not be justifiable.
If you can't use 2x6'1,
you should purchase a spe­
cial 3W inch thick fiber
glass insulation which has
an R-13 rating. If a higher
R-value is needed you could
supplement the 3 Vi inch­
thick batts of fiber glass
insulation with insulated
sheathing board on the ex­
terior surface before apply­
ing the siding.
Q. I've seen diagrams (or

sulation slays. I’ve checked
around my ncighbo-hood
and can't find either of these
materials. Can y ou http?
A. Write to Eastoc Whole­
sale Co. P.O. Box 500.
Easton. Md . or any large
building supply firms in your
area. You mixht also con­
sider using galvanized nails
in the joists, with heavy wire
laced around them or use
chicken wire nailed or stato the bottom of the
joids. See the diagram.
Q. What's the difference
between kraft-facing and
foil-facing on Insulation?
A. Both arc approved va­
por barriers which retard
the passage of water vapor
through them, in accordance
with the requirements o(
most building codes. While
the foil faced products are
more expensive than kraft
faced ones, they arc stronger
and do a superior job in re­
tarding moisture when prop­
erly installed.
in sidewalls it you allow
atlttut ’«" airspace between
the foil-faced insulation and
the outside wall surface,
you'll get some additional
reflective thermal value

With many famillca eat­
ing out leas and entertain­
ing nt home more, home­
makers are spending more
time In the kitchen on
meal preparation and
clean up. For them, "too
much of a good thing”
when II comes to cabinet
space is Incomprehensible
Inadequate storage
space is probably the ma­
jor reason that kitchen
remodeling continues to
remain among the most
popular home remodeling
projects.
Since kitchen remodel­
ing Is among the nu»l
expensive projects in
terms of cost per square
fool, careful planning with
the family budget In mind
Is a must.
The alm ot many kitch­
en modernization efforts
is to make It a more effi­
cient work area Planning
the layout to allow suffi­
cient space for work countees between the three
major appliance*, says the
National Kitchen Cabinet
AMOclatlon, is a prerequi­
site to successful kitchen
remodeling.
H's best, for example, to
locate the three major
appliances at equidistant
points of a triangle with
the refrigerator al the
point closest to the door
where the groceries are
brought In. the range at
the point nearest the din­

ing area and the sink and
dishwasher at the point
between.
Besides generous
amounts of counter space,
ample cabinet space is
needed for storage. Logi­
cal storage patterns
should help save time and
effort. Cooking and clean­
ing Items should be locat­
ed at or near the work
center where they are used
most often.
The choke of kitchen
cabinets is equally vital.
Their selection shouldn't
be based solely on appear­
ance and cost. Just as
important, says NKCA. is
their day-to-day perform­
ance and durability
The circular blue and
white NKCA certification
seal oi&lt; new kitchen cabi­
nets is an indkation that
the eabtneU arc designed
to withstand at least 10
years of normal use struc­
turally and at least five
years' wear with respect to
the cabinets' finish
Cabinet shelves and
drawers, for instance,
must stand up to impacts
from dropped cans and
must operate well even
when fuily loaded. Cabi­
net finishes must resist
scratches, stains, water
and detergent splashes
and the heat and humidity
common to kitchens.
Certification standard*
apply to most manufactured, factory-finished
kitchen cabinets and bath
roim vanities The rerun
cation seal can usually be
found on the inside of a
door or drawer of new
cabinets.

answered. "Thou shall love the lord thy God with all
thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy m.nd "
(Matthew 22371
Jesus knew that onty by lov.ng God totally couM

all of our being, wo would not only thoroughly enioy
God * wav of We. but we would be ready wd ansotrt
to obey every command of our Lord "If you love me.

When we love God totally would we rogedy and

how love I thy lawl It n my meditation all the day"
I Psalm 119971 Only then would it be easy to teach

Male support continuing at
about seven percent would
make it possible for the
Hasting* school* to "live"
with a renewal for three

board member* more oppor
lunity to watch the pat

increase.
Supt. Guenther said he
wa* recommending that a

Every year a* far bxk a*
1 can remember, the sum
mer months have been hosts
for "Dawn Patrol" Oy ia
breakfasts Thi* summer is
no exception with fly in*
xheduled lor every week
end some where in the great
Male of Michigan. A dawn
patrol is the only reason I
would arise from a good
sound sound sleep al the
first hir* of light on a
Sunday morning.
There is something about
an early morning flight to an
airpurt near or distant foe a
hearty breakfast of hot
cake* and eggs that makes it
a must on our summer
recreation schedule
A chance to fellowship
with pilot* and families who
hail from every point on the
compass is always reward
ing No matter what that
person may be. doctor, law
yer. pauper or Indian chief,
the Dawn Patrol provide* a
common ground that erase*
the walls of portion and
status between men For
that moment, at least, we all
share a mutual respect tor
one another as brother* and
a* pilots- Its a tremendous
experience and shared uni
vervally among those that
fly.
Some year* ago at a Dawn
Patrol. I recall a pilot dress
ed unfashionably. al the
time, in faded blue jean*
diligently polishing an air
plane from a bygone era.
After a few minutes of small
talk about airplane*. 1 pilch
rd in to help so that we
might have breakfast U&gt;
gether before the activities
started. I learned that the
airplxe receiving his tender
care was rebuilt from
scratch after bring totally
deMroyed in a fire. We
talked further of airframe
and engine repair, rrstora
lion projects. He. Only when
we parted for home did be
reluctantly discfoM- that he
practiced the art of neuro
surgery during the week
One never knows..

Hasting* Airport will host
a Dawn Patrol this year on
August 14. l-art year wr had
over 65 fly tn aircraft and

‘Travelogue Through Minds’
By LINDA LINCOLNHOL
Among thr book* avail

Uhrary ia Saul Befluw's To
Jerusalem and Bark i* not a
travrlogur through a coun­
try; it i» rather a travelogue
through the mind* and ex
prriencc* •»&lt; a people, a
»tudy of the p»&gt;ebological
climate of l»rael today. In
1975 Bellow went to Israel to
talk, to listen and to learn.
To Jerusalem and Back is
the result of this Inp. a
series of vignettes of people
he met. Included are intense
question and answer ses­
sions with Prime Minister
Rabin. Abba Ebra and a talk
with Henry Kissinger, also
included are talk* with the
people he met everyday: the
rabdrivers, the soldiers, the
waiters Brllow describes
his feelings about Israel this
way . "Israel is b&gt;nh a garri
son stale and a cultivated
society, both Spartan and
Athenian. It tries to do
everything, understand
everything...these people
are actively, individually in­
volved in universal history. I
don’t see how they can hear
(&gt;n Watch is a menxsr and
policy critique by Elmo R
Zumwalt Jr. Zumwalt ser­
ved as the chief of naval
operations from 1970 until
1974. during his term he w as
heralded as being the man
who turned thr N**J
around; he integrated the
Navy, upgraded thr status
of women and eliminated
tbatdated dress and be
havmr codes. The honk eon
centrales, however, not on
this aspect of his job, but on
his increasing disenchant
men! with the Nison ad
ministration which hr *rr
veil and most specifically
with his personal war with
Henry Kissinger which has
raged since 1971. Zumwalt
contends that Henry Kissin
ger believes the Soviet*
have unbeatable superiority
in conventional arms and the
t'mlrd Stales must make
the best of a had deal. He
also says that Kissinger let
Israel bleed just enough in
ihr 1973 war to aid hi* later
diplomatic maneuver*. The

book is a serie* of witty and
extensively documented and
of course self just if. ing re
&lt;on*tructions of bureaucra
tic intngves and hi* asser­
tion of the Nixon'* adminis

American people.
A completely different
memoir is The Enchanted
Place* by Christopher
Milne. In thi* charming and
sensitive book Christopher
Robin Milne write* about
the child he believes him
self to have hern and the
child his father pictured him
to lie for all Winnie the Pooh

really was a Colchford farm,
a Hundred Acre Wood* and
a Gloomy Place Ithis we

then hearing about the real

Ide i* the fact that we are
nut sorry we have. The book
is fun tn read and you put it
down being just a* enrap
lurid with all tbe "enchant

you picked it up.
Another memori and still
another change of pace is

Birthdays are always sup
posed to be happy occasion*
and provide splendid oppor­
tunities for «urpriw» But as
one gets older and there are
many more birthday* behind
you than in front of you. the
thought fulness of the family
and loved ones has a greater
meaning l-a*t Fnday Mrs
Edna Hosteller of Freeport,
mother of James Hostetler,
had such a natal day. Her
daughter. Mrs. Edwina Bur
ges* of Harbor Springs came
the first of the week to
spe.id a few days with her
mother. On Friday she
brought her mother to Hast
ing* to do a little shopping
and told her she would take
her out for dinner for her
birthday. By a little clever
manipulation they ended up
at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
Floyd Burkey on West Stale
Road where several car
load* of relatives had al­
ready assembled and where
Mr* Burkey, a niece of Mr*.
Hostetler had prepared a
lovely birthday dinner and
had invited in al1 the dose
relative*. tNot all were able
Io attend because of their
work. Mrs. James Hostetler
of Woodland was one of
those present t The guest of
honors'* only living brother.
Ervin Mishler, and his
daughter of St. John*, were
also present. Three birthday
rakes had been prepared,
two fnr Mrs. H&lt;Mtetler and
one fur Mrs. Gwendolyn
Mishler Blough of Freeport,
a niece, who also had a
birthday that day
Mr. and Mrs. Victor Sis
son called on Me. and Me*.
Vivian Barnum Thursday.
Vivian is gaining strength
every day and tne* to get tn
*&lt;xne outdoor walking daily,
but the cold and the strong
wind are not very encourag
ing factors in this treatment.
Other caller* last week were
Shtriey Barnum &gt;d leasing.
Mr and Mr*. Fred Geiger
Jr- local. Mr*. John Bar
num of Hastings, and Mrs.
Inez I’owers of Lansing.
Perhaps one of tbe hap
piest mother* tn the Wood
land area Sunday, and one of
the most surprised waa Mr*,
liildred Hesterly of Wood
land A* is her custom, she
went to church Sunday mor
ning at the Woodbury Unit
ed Brethren Church. As she
entered the church that
morning she wa* surprised
to see one of h&lt;r daughter*
present who doe* not or
dinarily attend the service
there. Upon further obser
vancr she found that not
only were all her children
there, but also all her grand
children, a total of 27 in all.
Of course, the very fact of
their presence added much
to the morning service,
swelling tbe attendance *p
pcvciably. But that was not
all for there is quite a bit of
talent in the Hesterly family
and they took over the
musical part of tbe service
and made it a memorable
occasion. Following the ver
vice, six more joined the
family and they enjoyed a
potluck dinner in the church
social room. The member* of
the family surpnsutg their

day last week. Mr*. Benham

exclaimed and they saw thr
parent wood ducks leading
the way acn&gt;*» th* yard

Distribution
Sots Record
World distribution of tbe
Holy Scriptures by the Unit
cd Bible Societies attained a
new high of almost ,331
million Bibles, New Testa
mrat*. and smaller portions
of the Scriptures in 1976. a
nine percent increase over
1973
This information was con
tai mil in the 161*1 annual
report of the Board of Man
aKrrs of thr American Bible
Society (ABSl. The ABS is
one of 59 national Bible
Socieite* that belong to the
world fellowship of the Unit
cd Bible Societies.
The largest distribution
within a single country was
in the United Slate*, where
the American Bible Society
sold or distributed free of
charge nearly 115 million
Scripture publications in
1976 The nest largest was
in India, where the Bible
Society distributed over 36
million Scriptures, nearly
twice Ila total in 1975.
The report quoted the
Rev Johana M Mbognri.
general secretary of The
Bible Society of Kenya, on
the rationale behind thia
world distribution effort:
"We are convinced that the
best way of evangelism in
modern days is through the
written Word...only a small
percentage of people who
hear a preacher retain his
words. But if they have
something written which
they can read when they get
home, they will think it over
and have time U make a
wed thought out decision to
follllW Chl*t*l."

This Week’s Message

THE TRANSFORMED LIFE
Roman* 12
By REV ROBERT TAYLOR. Pastor
Nashvdte Assembly ol God
"Be not conformed to this world; But be
ye transformed by the renewing of your
mind " (Romans 12:21.
Being a Christian mean* many thing* to
many people For Paul, though, it meant
berfvg a transformed person In Romans
12:1-21 he clearly relates what he mean* by
bring transformed As you read it you writ
sec that the Christian is to be a changed
person in every aspect.
God doe* not look on you or this world a*
the natural man looks. Paul say*, in the first
verse of thr* chapter. "I beseech you
therefore, brethem, by the mercie* of God.
that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice,
holy, acceptable, unto God. which is your
reasonable service." A living sacrifice is
gnmg our live* to his sen-*, to do it
because we love Him. If we love God. who
gave fus only begotten Son to dre for us. we
writ cease to be wrapped up in the things that
perish with the using, and begin to seek the
things that are eternal
When we are transformed by the Holy
Spot we don't think of oursefve*. Pride step*
aside as we realm we are afl a part of the
family of God. each having an important task
to fulfill. Every task is done with an attitude
of concern for the whole family and every
member m particular In verse 17 he goes so
far a* to say "Recompense to no man evd for
evd provide things honest m the sight of afl
men " Then in verse 14, "Bless them which
(lersecute you: bles», and curse not." Now
let* put verse 10 with this. "Be kindly
aHectioned one to another wrth brotherly
love; in honour preferring one another.
Now that i* Gods way of doing business
Genuine love and brotherhood, as well a*
kindness and fairness, become tbe hallmarks
of the transformed life. This affects our
relationship with those around us. whether in
bonnes*, home, or church Furthermore, we

become sensitive to those in need and blind
to their failure and shortcomings. We
respond in love, not in anger, when wronged,
we overcome evil with good Jesus set the
pattern when he was on earth
This IS transformation. we must contnu*l
ly examine our lives to see rf we are reflecting
the image of the changed life. We cannot
excuse ourselves by reflecting our neighbors,
or the preechers. or some one rises kle II
must be Christ wrthin us. our hope of eternal
Me. Then it become* a total change in al
who present themsetves totally to God It
becomes a life lived in the guiding presence
of His Spirit.
In 1 Peter 1:14-16 As oberfcent chid
ren. not fashioning yourselves according to
the former lusts in your ignorance: But as he
which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in
all manner of conversation: because it is
written "Be ye hdy; for I am holy-"
Disobedient children are not concerned wrth
the consequences of thee disobedience to
themselves or to others. Their only desire is
to do what they want regardless Obedient
children on the other hand, are concerned
with consequences to others as well as
themselves He ask* us to lashion ourselves
after Hie pattern, to be holy as He is holy.
Thon in dosing let* go to Phrippians 2:1-3
"If there be therefore any consolation m
Christ, if any comfort of love, if any
fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and
mercies. Fulfil ye my joy. that ye be
kkerranded. having the same love, bring of
one accord, of one mind. Let nothing be
done through strife or vain gkxv: but in
lowliness of mind let each esteem other
tetter than themselves.
When our lives are transformed by the
Sport of God we wi3 be &gt;&lt;ke our wonderful
Lord, no matter our church affKation. no
matter our national origin, no matter our
home life, or financial status. Il is a proven
fact that we are what we think. If we think on
Jesus life and hi® plan we will be like him.
and fashion oursefves to be like him.

Job's
Treasure
BY STAN CLANTON
Minister
Church ol Christ

You've heard of the righteous man Job. You'l
that ha was the patient sufferer m the Bible God
allowed Satan to wipe out Job's weelth and family,
and yet Job stdl maintained faith in his Redeemer. He
didn't serve God for wages
Job was indeed a very rich man before his day ol
Hagerty So great were hn flocks and servants that the
Bible refers to him as "the greatest of ail the children
of lhe east " Whan you make a list of the richest men
that the wo*ld has known, don't forget Job
Bui listen to Job's words about halfway through
the book "I have treasured up the words of (God's)
mouth more than my necessary food" I Job 2312.
ASVi Job s real treasure was the word of Godl That's
why when he learned of his great loss, he "fed to lhe
ground and worshipped " He had a solid relationship
wrth God No wonder the Bible speaks so highly of
Job
Satan sought io destroy Job. but Job's personal
convictiori about the Almighty bolstered hm through
lhe groat tragedy. Job will always be a bad memory to
Satan

On Beef Referendum

Vision Screening At
Woodland Lions Den
The Woodland I Jons (Tub
will conduct an rye screen
ing program for adults and
children on Wednesday and
Thursday. May 25 26. from 2
to 7 p.m. at Woodland Lions
Den.
Vision sererner* »uch as
used in schools and driving
testing bureaus will be used
to do lhe screening.
Vision screening is not an
eye examination and that its
sole purpose is to deter
mine whether &lt;»r not a
person requires further pro

fessional eye care. Everyone
who participates will be
informed should lhe screen
ing reveal any defects, and if
a complete vision examina
tion is recommended.
Sight screening is for
adults as well as children,
and Dale Hefty, president of
the Lions Club, urges
parents to take advantage of
this free program foe their
children, emphasizing that
school work is easier with
good vision.

The U.S. Department of
Agriculture (USDA) lu&gt; an
Bounced June 6 as the
beginning of a two week
registration penial for lhe
Beef Research and Infnrma
lion Order Referendum and
issued rules for thr rrfrrrn
dum.
Anyone who was a cattle
producer during 1976 can
register to vote, cither in
person nr by mail, at local
Agricultural Stabilization
and loosenalinn Service
(ASCS) Offices between
June 6 and June 17. A list of
those who register will hr
posted daily at ASCS offices
and a final listing will be
posted five days after regts
tralion closes. Those regis
lered can vole iielwccn July
5 and July IS al their ASCS
office. Foe approval &lt;»( the
Beef Research and Informa
lion Order, al least 50 per
cent of those registered
must vote, and two thirds of
them must favor it.
The order that producers
will consider in the upcom
ing Referendum would
authorize a Research and
Infoemation Program ad
ministered by a Beef Board
of up to 68 producers. Board
members would lie appoint
ed by the Secretary of
Agriculture from nomina
lions submitted by producer
organizations Each slate or
geographic area would be
represented in proportion
of its cattle production
The Beef Hoard could
initiate a broad spectrum of
projects lo improve beef
production, distribution, and
marketing. Such a program
could inelude consumer edu
cation and information and
research.
During lhe first three
years of operation, the
Board could collect assess
ments of up to three tenths
of one percent of the value of
all cattle sold. After that,
the rate of asses* went could
be changed but could not
exceed fivetenlhs of one
percent- the maximum
amount permitted under the
Beef Research and In forma
tion Aet. Producers n-i

wishing to participate in the
program could have their
asM-suncnt refunded

tence before they become

is necessary because of the

similar pending legislation.
The reaction &lt;4 the legis

the word* of the mother of

and murdered by a parolee

gladly pay 195 million dol

Secondly, the reaction of

directed the Department of

THE CONTINUAL COMPLAINER
By PASTOR LES TAKKLNEN
Mito Bible Church
Today we hear people complaining about
the weather, the government, the church,
the preacher, etc., etc ’Ifa too cold, it’s too
hot. it's too dry, it's...." says everyone at one
time or another'
The world is fuU of human compiatoers
BUT, the most horrible thing about it is that
the Christians are part of this complaining
world I expect it from a non Christian, but
not Christians1 But once a person gets saved
this ' ought not so to bo."
Comiitairung is skill Phil 2:14 says. "Do all
things without murmuring* and disputing*
How many tunes do we go shopping watch
television, eat meals and a thousand otler
things and complain about the service, the
program that was tousy. and the terrible
food Yes. we complain"1
How can we not complain? To be realistic,
it is probably impossible BUT we can come
to a very minenum of this being m our lives
Hero are some helpful hints on not complain
ing so much
FIRST, you must be saved from your sins
Christ died and rose again from your sms.
You must accept this only sacrifice for
yourself and repent ot your sins Christ camo
to give you a bubbling, uncomplaining life
■John 10:10) Becoming a true, bom agam
Christian will take away a lot of that
complaining that you do
SECONDLY, be thankful' The Word of
God says. " In every thing give thanks lor
this is the will of God in Christ Jesus
concerning you " II Theas 5 IB) Yes. in
everythmg! Ephesians 520 says. "Grve
thanks always
No matter what may come
your way "give thanks to God"
If you and I realty took at every experience

that happens to us. we shall find something
to praise the Lord Jesus Chmt about I The
Apostle Paul praised God in prison (PM. 4:41.
Why? Because be and many other Christians
rest upon the promise of Romans 828 This
wonderful assurance of God for "just
Christians" ia often overlooked in many
situations
That flat tire, that broken chma doh. that
short the dog chewed up. that job tost, the
baby sick, and on it goes Even in these "all
things work together for good?" Yes. this is
KNOWN by every Christian if He truly trusts
in Christ for h« salvation and every
experience in his life
FINALLY, to get away with complimenting
instead of complammg. one must learn to be
content in every situation Paul learned thn
very important lesson (Phil. 4:111. Yes. Paul
had to LEARN this important. vital lesson! It
docs not come naturally
Being content with your home, your
children, your parents, your car. your job,
your teachers and on and cn the 1st could
go If you are not content with each detailed
area of your Me. you are probably a
complainer
Comptoners come e dime a dozen. They
atu found wherever you and I go Complain
ers are not well like people To be e
compiamer is easy To be saved, thankful
and content is rare
If you are not saved read the book of St.
John and see for yourself Christ will show
you the way as you read Hrs Word Once you
are saved, be thankful for everything to your
life and team to bo content where you are.
what you are doing and where you are going
m your Me for Christ It you obey Hrs Word,
you wWI be one test romptoner m this world
and God would like that I

two male*. No»ey and Char
He and one female. Sissy.
He proudly say*. “I've
gotten more enjoyment out
of this than anything I've
ever done."
The three were part of a
family of five who were left
to fend for themselves after
their mother was shot by a
young boy. Don found their
mother dead April 1st. He
and another boy elimbed a
nearby tree and retrieved
the week old animal*.
By his estimation the
mother squirrel, who was a
regular resident of the area,
bore 28 babies before being
shot.
But unlike other*, this
family will be leaving home
soon for good.
Having secured the ncces
sary permits to raise them.

Rogers ha* been feeding and
caring lor the squirrel*. Hr
started them on premixed
baby's milk, but now hr says
they cat anything from soup
to nuts.
'The three are learning to
hunt for food for them
selves.” say* Roger*. "I plan
to let them go in about two
weeks.”
Ho hope* that upon their
release they will stay around
the area. A nearby tree
hold* a squirrel house that
hr built a few years ago.
During the day. Sissy.
Nosey, and Charlie spend

their time tn the garebo near
the Thornapplc lakeshore.
Night* arc spent in the
house in a converted box.
They've traveled as far a*
Baldwin nn two occasion*
and John think* they must
lw one of the few animal* tn
do so.
Il ha* been like watching
one's children grow. From
the time hr and hi* wife
could hold all five in one
hand to today when they
play around like children,
the Huger's have raised a
family of sort*.

Hastings formally applied
for review of the action by
adopting a resolution at
their regular meeting Mot
day night. Ba.ry County ha*
also appealed for recon
sideration.
Harting* had applied lor
grant* totaling $1,155,000
for a swimming pool com
plex at the new fish hatch

Public Service* Mike Klo
vanich said it wa* under
stood that the city wa» ir.
line for a $925.0)0 grant,
only to learn Thursday that
no money had been allo
rated. It was understood the
county
would
receive
$109,000. Klovanich said.
Hastings had applied for
the project* which would
have included three outdoor
pools—an Olympic site pool,
a diving lank and a train
mg pool. The project would
alto include sanitary and
dressing facilities, a coney*

The city's resolution
points out that the applies

resolution stales that the
city had received a prelimi

allocated $925,000
The resolution states:
"Whereas, it appears that
the Economic Development

Homeowners can save a
lot al energy by simple
methods.
Many of those methods
were revealed Monday by
Doris Cross, energy man
agement consultant for Con
sumers Power Co.. in a
program put on al Hastings
High School
Mrs. Cross told of ways
that energy can be saved
through proper use of beat
ing. hot waler, air condition
ing. home appliances and
lights.
The most obvious saving*
come through insulation,
which ban cut the cost ol
heating, she said. Pointing
out that 40 percent of an
av erage family's energy use
is for heal. Mr*. Cross said
that st* inches of insulation
in the ceiling can save up to
21 percent of the heat bill.
Good sidewall insulation can
save another II percent, she
said.
Dialing down the thermo
stat one degree in winter
can save another three per
cent, while dialing up five
degree* in the summer can
save 13 percent on th* air
conditioning bill.
Thr hot water heater is
usually a big user of energy.
Mrs. Cross noted, and sav
ing* on it* proper use can be
substantial.
Hot waler temperature of
110 degree* i* adequate foe
most home uses, she said,
and reduces the amount on
fuel used to best the water.
Only automatic washers and
dishwashers require water
of a higher temperature, she
said.
I'sing washers and dish
washers only when you have
a full load, and keeping
showers short save a lot of
hot water, Mrs. Cross said.
She also advited installing a
hot water healer with plenty
of insulation, as the main
km of heat is through the
sides of the heater itself.
Most rlothes. eieept
heavily soiled ones, require
only warm water for gnnd
results in the washer. Mrs.
Crows said. This again saves
hot waler.
Refrigerators and frees
er* will be most efficient
when set at the proper tern
prralure, Mr* Cross sai&gt;*.
Fr&lt;&gt;«t should not be allowed
to build up more than one
half inch, and the door
should no* be opened more
&lt;4ten than necessary.
Although ranges use less
energy than many other
appliances, they can be most
efficiently used if pan* fit
the heating unit, lid* are pul
on pan*, and small amounts
• 4 water are uwd in rook
ing. Mr*. Cross said. She
suggested using small ap
pliancrs for cooking where
possible, a* they may use
less energy than the full
stove.
iughtmg can be more
economical if lights are tun*
rd off wb?n not in us*,
proper siae bulb* used, and
flourcscent bulbs used
where ("rouble. Mrs. Cross
told the rrowd.
Mrs. Cross was preceded
by Don* Hchinivifl. Barry
County Eitension Director,
who gave a short presents
lion on how individuals can
deal with stress in their
lives. She said that often
change* can hr made in a
person * hie to reduce th*
level of stress, and suggest
rd some techniques to help
make it bearable.

How To
Become
A Christien
MY STAN CLANTON
MMirter
Church M Christ

How doe* one become a Christian’ Thrs questxxi
can on(y be answered from God s Word, the BitXo
The book of Acts in the New Testament especially
gives us many accounts of people who became
Chnsuans The "how" of thee conversions should
serve as the pattern for men of an generations, fo. they
became Christians under the direction of God-guided
men.
Read of the converwon of the Jew* on the day of
Pentecost (Acts Z22-47), the Samaritan* and Senon
the sorcerer (Act* 8:12-13). the treasurer from Ethiopia
(Acts 826-401, the woman. Lytfe (Act* 16:14-15). the
fetor at Phdippi (Act* 1&amp;25-341. the Conmhian* (Act*
188). and Saui of Ta^us (Act* 22:10 16)
In every case of conversion, the gospel was
preached and believed. And in every example, when
people baheved. they obeyed the gospel by being
baptized (arvnersed in water). To bebever*. baptem
was commanded lor the forgiveness of sins (Acts
2:38. 22:16). The object of their faith wa* Christ the
Savor, and they obeyed Him to be saved We become
Chnstians in exactly the same way today1

To the KaHtr.
1 wonder why it ia nece.
sary to wait until after
labor Day to start the
•chool year.
It seem* to me that at
least a month earlier would
be a better time. The fuel
bill for August would be less
than for January and school
would not need to be can
celled on account of blizzard*
and blocked roada.
Busse* operate better on
pavement than on snow and
ice. If school was in an
shin during August instead
of January, everything
would l&gt;e belter than the
present plan.
The Christmas vacation
could tie extended until Feb
niary, an there would be the
same number of school days.
IC* pretty tough to have to
wade thru snow with zero

To the Editor:
The people seeking sell*

answered question* (or thr
teacher* on June 1st.
Why don't they do the
same for the rest of the
people in the district.
Some of the teacher* don't

I'.S. I think we have fine
teachers al Deltoo. but I also
think the average taxpayer
should have more considers
turn on an issue that uses
their monies.
To the Editar:
I have Just returned from
this year's Memorial Day
parade. As you may recall
last year after the parade 1
wrote a letter to the editor
pointing out thr severe lack
of attendance and respect
show n during the services at
the cemetery. This year I
want to say congratulations.
Hastings!
The Camp fire Giris and
Boy Scout Troops all march
rd the complete distance to
thr cemetery and stayed for
thr service*. More citizens
were in attendance; a short
prayer was led by Father
Mike Howell; and perhaps
one of the most important
points is that services were

delayed until the citizens
and marcher* were present
and quiet.
Also it wa* noted that lhe
busses were parked farther
away from the service area
to allow les* disturbance aa
the bandsmen boarded the
busses.
More improvemen'.* can
be made. IVrhaps next year
the bandsmen will decide to
slay during the service* at
the cemetery. Perhaps moro
citizen* will become aware
of the true purpose of lhe
Memorial Day parade - to
honor &lt;iur dead soldiers and
veteran* - and will attend
the sen ice* al the cernr
lery. IVrhap* even more
Scout* and Camp Fire Giri*
will be in thr parade and at
lhe services next year.
But thi* year compared
with prcvemi year* is *o
improved 1 can only *ay
again with great elation,
congratulation* Hastings.

Barry Road Commissioners

Review Highway Importance
Hi 1 he liarrv Road
( nmmiMoners
Hasirally. transportation
neriis tti lhe County in the
early years were not much
different than those nf to­
day. Highway* had to be
built and paved, and as
(Mipulatinn grew. oKigeslion
and accident* caused lhe
need for a continual upgrad
ing of the road oystrm. The
volume .4 traf'ie has tn
creasril many fold aver the
year* and in the recent
years the speed of increase
in t r*f fie volume has merra*
rd faUrr than the amount &lt;4
money available to make
necessary repair* and improvemrnts.
In this same period of time
the ton miles &lt;4 freight be
ing moved on our County
road* have mon- than douhl
cd. probably tripled. Of
significance is the fact that
freight moving to and from
or in and out .4our cities and
village* in the County has
increased tremendously. A
person today can travel fur
ther. farter, more ronveient
ly. more comfortably and
safer than ever before in the
history of the County. Try to
picture your daily activity,
your &gt;4&gt;. your s«rial life
your school system, your
sheriff, fire and ambulance
serv ice*, and your home life
without the transportation
system in the County today.
People take the County road
sy stem as something that is
there. They had little to do
with building them Some
body occasionally maintains
them and surely the present
gas and weigh: tax should be
enough.
We who know: how im
port ant these roads arc and
how much money it takes to
maintain and operate them
properly, seem to be the
only ones who really know
how serious the financial
problem can be. We have
been rightfully accused of
n«&gt;&lt; telling the people of the
C.nmty the seriousness of
our financial problem* and
also accused &lt;4 n.H inviting
the pnifde to help u» arrive
al a nilutioc to the prob
Icm.
It ha* also been drawn to
our allr..tion that w- pa
liently and respectfully Its
ten to a citizen'* complaint
and do not take the lime to
explain that the problem
would no doubt have been
taken care of if lhe money
had been available. It ha*
also liren pointed out that
we have not told the people
.4 the County that when we
have an unusually bad win
ter. an unrsually bad rain
storm or an unusually bad
wind storm that immediate
ly following we must revise
and cut down our normal
operation Io make up for the
unusual expenditures of
money . We plead guilty to
all &lt;4 these fault* and would
welcome information from
the citizens of lhe County ns
to how to raise more moeny
for road*.
Constructive suggestions
are always welcomed by the
Road Commission. We feel
we are aware of the prob

lems and are making a
sincere attempt to make im
provement * a* fast a* money
is made available However
it may be possible that we
arc overlooking something
very important to the
County Road System.
At this time it might be in
oeder to give a brief sum­
mary of the use of Road
Commission fund* derived
from gasoline and weight
taxes, whtch are the monies
controlled by the Road Com
mission. Due to the lack of
funds from thi* source, lhe
Road Commission is forced
into a st net I y maintenance
function. This would take
into consideration such
pern* as »acw removal.
Mack ton patching, sealing,
and other roadway service*.
Also items »uch as main
tenance of shoulder*, drain
age. guard rail. Uaffic signs,
mowing, etc. Abo funds
must be m.nle available for
necessary insurance, equip
ment renewal and replace
ment. wages, and material*.
In addition to these ex
penditure* money must be
»et aside to finance projects
fururd by monies *upplied
from other source*. The
Road Commission must fund
these project* to completion
and after billing lhe money
is reimbursed tn the Road
Commission either tn part or
in its entirety. An example
of these projects would be as
follows:
No. I Money received
through
Federal
Aid
Secondary Road program.
Two miles of Cloverdale
r«&gt;ad.
No. 2. Money received
through thr Federal Aid "off

system" program. Two mile*

No. 5. Federal Aid (eta
and Wtefar. pr itram per
sonnei used on general mam
trnancr work such as brush

No. 6. Federal Revenue
Snaring money grant nf by
the Harry County I ommis
sum to tie matched by thr
township* which is spsrifird
for bodge*, gravel. rt&lt; on
rural roads.
No. 7 Federal Revenue
Sharing money grant ni by
the Karn County &lt; &lt;mmis
sum to blacktop, resurface

North Avenue from the Cal
houn County line nortl.
No. S. Morey furnnh.il by
the various township* which
i* specified to be used for im
provement* on roads chosen
by the township*.
This briefly point* out
that the regular fund* avail
able to the Hoad Commit
*ion through gas-'iir.v and
weight taxr* are mostly
used for general main
tenan.r and the improve
ments are made poss.Me by
monies from other sources
This also jaunts out why
the Road Commission is so
grateful to the Harry
County Hoard of I ommis
stoner* and the various
township*.

Oppose Unemployment Pay
Concert
For Part Time School Workers Wednesday
Hasting* and other ana
school adminirtralors have
been concerned over legula
lion which would provide
non professional. part time
school employee* with un­
employment benefits.
Harting* Superintendent
of School* Richard J. Guen
lher wrote State Reprrven
talive Donald Gilmer, rtal
ing "We profoundly oppose
H.B. 4454 which would allow
unemployment benefit* to a
non (caching employee of a
school district during a vaca­
tion period or holiday re­
cess.
“This employee accept*
hi* or her assignment with
thr knowledge that the posi­

tion t* seasonal in fact that
is why he or she accept* our
job offer the offtime is
attractive." Guenther *aid
Providing unemployment
benefit* could eort the Hart­
ing* district $50.1)00 nr more

An amendment to thr
State Senate bill which pa**
ed 32 in the Senate Ijbor
Committee Wednesday.
June 22. would now allow
unemployment benefit* to
non-professional school
workers such as cook* and
bus drivers. The amendment
was opposed by labor groups
but favored by thr Michigan
Association of School Board*

and the Association of
School Administrators.
These group* said Wed
ncwlay that to allow non
professional workers to pick
up employment checks dur
ing the summer would cost
the state's taxpayer* $71
million.
Kalamazoo estimated the
change would add $400,000 a
year to fund the benefits.

that you don't worry that
you don't get the washing
done on Monday and ironing
done on Tuesdav anymore.'
The old saying about wit
dom coming with age seem*
to tw true, but the one about
poor memory isn't. I*, may
take an oltler person slightly
longer to remember series of
thing*, but overall perfor­
mance I* no worse than
that of younger people.
Then is at leart one thorn

Arrording to the study,

Last year thr magazine
"Retirement IJving" con­
duct rd a serie* of articles on
comment* from readers who
have already retired and
have a won! of advice to
atsHit to ret ire
readers.
Some of the suggestion*
were; I. Ihm't jurt sell and
run off. Ihm't change your
way of living without due
con»ideratk&gt;n. For example
don't sell the old homestead
ani| run off to California or
Florida and in six months
wi*h you had the old place
luck II you have bet-n
*er»ou*)y considering a di*
I an I move, go there and rent
for a few month*. If you like
it fine, then plan to stay. if
you don't like it. there's no
long range harm done.
2 II you ran travel, do it,
don't wail Blan for it before
your retirement ar well as
you ran. and then go out and
enjoy life 3. Prepare (or
possible ynef. None of (be
b&gt;&gt;ik* or article* on retire
mml planning aid say any
thing about what one should
do to plan for thr early death
of one of the parties. Try lo
have a plan which will a«*i*l
the sun Ivor in case o’ an
early death of one spouse
I. If you chang- your
lifestyle, such a* moving
from a farm to a mobile
home village in lhe south,
we recommend that you
take a vacation there first
and decide what you should
*ave of your (xruinal br
longing* lo lake to such an
area
5. Prepare for lonlinr**
Nut being a* active a* you
once wrrr mran* that you
don't go to the office any
more, or if you do. familiar
face* lircome fewer and

"H* aching retirement ha*
brought u* thr greatest *e
curiiy we've had Always
before there wa* ehanre of

which I built 16 year* ago st
aeort of $25,000. Since then.
I have made improvement*
and have been offered
$50,000. 1 intend lo relocate

$20,000 in another house
(handyman* spscial). On

what monev do I pay taxes?
The $25,000 profit or the
balance of money not in
vested in another house?
Answer: Tn answer your
hade question: Thr money
that you pay taxe* on it the
money you don't invert tn
another house within 18
month* of srlhng your old
house.
Firrt you find the "adjust

home. Arrording to thr In­
ternal Revcnur Service,
that's the amount you
realized from the sale after
rommission* and &lt;4 her tell
mg expenses. Once
you
have lhe adjusted tale*
price, you subtract the cort
of your new residence and
what you have left is what
you pay taxes on that year your taxable gain.
But before you call the

treatment you get if you tell

bapt^ed into Chrrtl (Acts 23B. Galatians
3 27) Christians have the promiee of eternal
life m heaven, tf they abide fanhluHy "in
Christ," they are safe from spiritual death
(John 8:31).
Christ also promised during His lifetime
that there would be a commg judgement.
There would come a day when Jesus would
raise the dead and judge the world (John
5 28. 29; II Corinthians 5=101. "So then each
one of us shall give account of htmseff to
God" (Roman* 14:12). To those who have
accepted God * groat love and sacrifice,
eternal life wrt be given. To those who have
refused God * wrt. God wrt cast them from
hrs presence for eternal punishment (II
Thcwalonian* 1;R8).
The entire world stand* in need of the
qospet of Christ because ail have sinned and
come short of God** glory (Romans 323).
Men are not doomed because Jesus came to
the earth. Jesus came to save. Men are
doomed because they are lost m sin. To
illustrate a drowning man isn’t dying
tiecause he refuse* to grab the rescue line
thrown him. He is drowning because he is in
the water and can't swim. The rescue line
has nothing to do with his drowning Tbe
rescue kne is there to save him. but the man
must take hold of it. The gospel is to save us.
but we must accept rt and obey it
The Bible ha* one theme: redemption from
sm through Chrtst. It toils of God’* great love

months, there is some evi
dence to indicate that there
would be a considerable
aquatic weed winter kill.
1 With a new lake level
control device, resident*
could maintain an annua!
winter lake level lower than
is now possible with the pro
sent 6'/&gt; inch gate. This
would prevenl mu-h of lhe
damage many lake front
owners have been ei
perienring with ice to their
seawall*, docks and boat
houses. This would also less
en the damage to shore*
caused by muskrats.
1 With the finish ol thr
project. ALCA could better
control the lake level during
all four seasons. With lhe
present 6' z inch gale, na
ture make* most &lt;4 thr
lake level decisions." With
priqicr maintenance, rv*i
dents wouldn't have to
worry about the dam wash
ing out by spring flooding or
a flash Hood. With the dam
controlling a natural drain
age basin ol 16' &gt; square
miles fed by five lakes, this
is entirely possible with lhe
present structure. Thr dam
was almost lost in the spring
flood of 19T2. Valiant ef
forts of many ALCA mem
bers and help from others
outside and from factories,
businesses and government
al agencies prevented that
tragedy.
4. The east portion &lt;4
Algonquin lake could be
restored to full use. While
thr level is down, the haaar

moved.

unanimously by a large turn

New Life-Saving Really Works,
Ambulance Head Says
Rescuers, using a new
technique, were able to re­
store life to a small Oakfield
Township boy who had lain
at the bottom of a pond for a
half hour, according to a
recent new* story.
The boy was pulled from a
five fcwit deep pond near hi*
home.
George la-onard. pre*!
dent of the Hastings Ambu
lance Service, say* the new
method work*, and he has
hern trained in the pence
dure.
Member* of the Harvard
Fire Department rescue
squad had saved the Oak
field Township hoy. and
began immediate cardio pul
mnnary massage and mouth
t&lt;&gt; mouth resuscitation.
la-onard said the newly
taught technique is to con
tinur resuscitation effort*
but not immediately to al
tempt to stimulate a heart
brat through electrical
shocks &lt;&gt;r drugs
A* the body is warmed."
lannard said. "resuscitation
i* continued" and in the case
of the Oakfield Township
boy Rockford Ambulance at
tendinis were able to restor
shallow breathing before the
hoy reached Butterworth
Hospital.
"The important thing is Io
get them to the hospital and
warm them up." I^onard
said.
Most of our lakes and

added, that once you are
unconscious your body tern
pcrature drops to that level.
Because of the lower tern

body functions slow down
and the brain requires less
oxygen.
(Nd method* of using
drugs and electric shock al
thr scene of an accident have
been found less than ef­
fective when body tempera
lure is so low. la-onard said.
la-onard. who is attending
Grand Valley State College
in advanced emergency
medical technician course,
said the new life saving
method now is to try and
warm up ti.e body on thr
way to a hospital, with onlymouth t runout h rr*u*cita

At Grand Valley la-onard
I* studying Ihe use of drugs
and electrical stimulation for
prr hospital cardiac related
emergencies.
A University of Michigan
lung disease and diving
medicine specialist ha* ar­
rived at the same conclusion
after a study. In a paper
printed before the Ameri
can Lung Association in San
Francisco. Dr. Martin J.
Nemiroff reported lhat he
has documented intact sur
vival of nine person* who
were submerged without
oxygen in cold waler from
four to 3M minutes.
They were saved by a
primitive response which
still exists in Ihe human
body to maintain a spark of
life which, under the right
conditions, can be revived
even after many minutes
under waler.
Thi* finding ha* important
legal and moral implications
for physicians and emergen
cy medical workers. Dr.
Nemiroff said, la the past,
many drowning victim* de
clarrd dead actually could
have had some potential for
life, he said.
Hi* advice to rescue work
era and doctor* now la:
■'First, don’t give up. Even
if lhe victim looks dead. He
may be cnld. blue, not

breathing with no detectable
pulse or heartbeat and with
fixed and dilated pupil*.
"Start resuscitation im
mediately, externa) heart
massage and ventilation
with a* near 100 per cent
oxygen as you have avail
able. Warm the body grade
ally from the inside by
raising the temperature of
thr oxygen to 110 degrees
Fahrenheit with a nebulizer.
"Maintain (’PR iCardio
pulmonary resuscitation! at
least until lhe body tempera
lure reaches normal De
fibrillation shocking lhe
heart into action may not l&gt;e
successful until normal body­
temperature is reached."
Dr Nemiroff based his
conclusions on 50 near
drowning incident* in Michi
gan waters he investigated
over a three year span. His
study is federally funilcd by
the Michigan Sea Grant
l*rogram. a cooperative elfort of Michigan State Uni
vtrsity and the U M.
Dr. Nemiroff, who partici
paled in or consulted on
many of the resuscitation
effort*, said hr *clrctcd 13
cases considered lo lie true
"cold water drowning*"
those in water below TO
degrees Fahrenheit. Of the
13 near drowning*, nine
were successfully resu*
dated without brain damage
or cither ill effects; two died
of lung infections contracted
in the water and two suffer
cd brain damage. All had
gone beyond the traditional
four minute oxygen deprivn
tion limit after which, it was
previously believed, irrever
»ible brain damage must
occur.
What saved the survivor*.
Dr. Nemiroff said, was thr
activation, after thr lace is
submerged in rold water, or
a little known automatic
response in mammals, called
lhe "mammalian diving re
flex." a» well a* lhe coldness
u. ihe water.
First i I’ificd in the
1930 * in whales, -al* and
porpoises, the reflex aboa*
these sea going mammal* to
exist and function under
water, without breathing,
foe up to 30 minute* in an
emergency. The automatic
reflex greatly reduces the
blood supply to the akin,
muscles and gut -tissue*
which are resistant to oxy
gen loss damage, and re
serve* the remaining blood
oxygen for the vital brain.
Cold water also reduces the
oxygen need of tissues, fur
lher lengthening survival
lime without cxtt.nal oxy
gm. Dr. Nemiroff added.
Although man quickly be
comes unconscious after in
voluntary submersion, the
diving reflex still functions
in cold water, allowing lhe
heart lo mainla.n a feeble,
but constant supply of Naud
to lhe brain extending
p&gt;**ible survival in very
rold water, perhap* up io
one hour. Dr. Nemiroff said.
The record so far in hi*
study is held by an IH
year old Jackson, Mich., col
lege student who, in late
March 1975 was trapped In
his car and submerged in a
frozen pond for 3H minutes.
"The car rolled over after
breaking through lhe ice.
eliminating the possibility of
an air bubble." Dr. Nemiroff
said. "Thr patient recalled
struggling, inhaling water
and losing conscHiusnes*."
When he and a companion
were brought to the surface,
both had no life sign* and
were declared dead al the
scene. When they were be

ing loaded into an ambulance
to be taken to thr morgue,
the student's body gave an
agonal gasp a sort of in
voluntary belch often a»«i
naled with death and re
suscitation on him was start

After a high *prrd am

and 13 hour* of respiratory

week* later he left the
hospital to return to college

Another survivor in the

resuscitated in a hospital
after 15 minute* of sub

under water, the tempera

elements to intact survival.
Another similar study of
drowning* and near drow n
ing* in Florida waters over
70 Fahrenheit showed that,
above this temperature, four

to be the cutoff point for
brain damage and or sur

One doesn't have to read the New Testament
long until he sees lhe importance of having faith.
Without faith we cannot please God I Hebrews 11®:
we're saved by grace through faith (Ephesians 2 8).
and we wWk by faith, not by sgjht (II Corinthians 5:7)
Faith obviously describe* the fundamental way m
wfweh man is related to God
Hebrews 11:1 speaks of faith in term* of
assurance and conviction There's no uncertainty m

there and that He reward* them that seek Him

accepting Jetus as lord and Savior Faith rs active
response to God's word, and it includes obedience,
commitment. dedication, and loyalty.
The faithful one trusts Chief He befceves every
word Christ say* It a contradictory to say that one
has faith m Christ but doe* not bet-eve everything He
taught. Faith accepts Christ's evaluation of Me. death,
judgment, ethic*, and value* Out whole relationship
With God 1» based on unquestioning faith that what
Jesus said is true. And that will affect our entire life.

Bike Tour

Thru Wert
Michigan
Ship watching, sunbath
ing. dune* scaling and visit­
ing top tourism attractions
are activities highlighted
along a J26 mile bicycle
route through West Michi
gan. according to Automo­
bile (Tub of Michigan.
The circle lour roils along
■ beautiful stretch of Lake
Michigan, past miles ol out­
standing agricultural and
dairy (arms and through in
duatnalixed areas of Muske
gon. Holland and Greater
Grand Rapids.
The route is along all
paved roads and provides
interesting contrasts. The
countryside varies from
mostly flat or gently rolling
to sleep hills and winding
roads and passes through
large cities as well as rural
areas.
Parts of the cycling trip
trr along marked bicycle
routes, and more than two
thirds of the trip follows
lightly traveled roads.
Persons looking for hotels,
inns and motels or rest au
rants en route will be able to
choose from a large number
which range from modest to
Insurious. Campground and
picnic areas are plentiful,
too.
Thr 33 mile stretch from
Holland to Grand Haven is
the most scenic. Cydists
travel along lake Michigan
and its towering sand dunes
and pass stately summer
and year around homes.
Two of Michigan* most
popular state park camp
grounds. Holland and Grand
Haven, are located along
that stretch. A third state
park. Hoffmaster. is situated
near Muskegon. All three
arr on lake Michigan and
have beautiful, sandy beach
ea. Drew's Campground
along US-131 is available for
cyders in the Holland area
preferring a private park.
Those who begin pedaling
from Holland leave behind
one of the state's most
picturesque cities.
Popular Holland attrac­
tions are the Wooden Shoe
Factory and Dutch Village
on US-31. The city's Wind
mill Island contains a 200
year old w indmill imported
trom the Netherlands called
DeZwaan. The island also
has splendid gardens, wood
en shoe carving exhibits, a
miniature Dutch village,
farm scenes and Dutch arti­
facts.
Freighter* from around
the world can be seen in the
Lake Macatawa channel
near Holland State Park,
lake Macatawa slices the
city into two sections and is
K&lt;««d for sailboat watching.
Cydists traveling along
lake Shore Drive from Hol
land tu Grand Haven will
find several rest areas along
thr way, including Tunnel
Park, north of Holland, and
Kirk Park, south of Grand
Haven. Some of West Michi­
gan's most beautiful homes
are located in that stretch.
Grand Haven has several

Gary's Wrecker Service st-

city parks, including one cn
the Grand River, and a
chance to view the commu
nity'* famed Musical Foun­
tain. which features nightly
concerts in light, water and
sound through labor Day.
Grand Haven also is the
home of the U.S. Coast
Guard Festival, which this
year runs July 30 to August
7. The Coast Guard vessel
Raritan is based there.
Hikers must negotiate
several congested city
streets, including US-31 HR.
and cross the drawbridge
over the Grand River be
fore reaching lightly travel
cd Old Grand Haven Road.
Once crossing the bridge,
bicyclists must lake the
Ferrysburg exit and turn
left on Third Street before
winding into Old Grand
Haven Road and setting a
northerly course for the
eight miles to the Greater
Muskegnn area.
Travelers pass through
mostly residential areas
along Pontaluna Road. lake
Harbor Drive and Mona
lake before tounng the in
dustraiized and rommerria
llzed area* of Greater Mu*
kegon. Maranat ha Bible and
missionary facilities arr Io
rated on the route. Thr
facility offers lodging and
weekly religion* conferences
with reservation*.
The 42 mile route from
the Muskegon area to Great

The final 24 miles of the
trip from Allendale to Hol

glimpse al farm lands and
industrial areas.
Bicyclists should pace
themselves according to
their ability. The League nf

mates the average bicyclist
can rover 35 to 50 miles a
day with ease. A card and

lor assistance, she had to go
to a nearby neighbor to use
their phone. Fire Chief Hon
aid Herminetl estimated
damages at about 6150. to
6200. Heavy rains during the
severe storm are credited in
keeping the home from
starting fire.
Several hundred boats
and pontoons. many ol them
filled to capacity with child
ren. were on Gun lake.
Monday night, for the July
4th fireworks sponsored by
the Gun lake Protective
Association. The Southside
Plus landing parking kH

folks to watch from shore
and ducks every where were
filled
As a precautionary mea

retreat of smaller vessels
while thr show was in pro­
gress. however, some were
still on the lake at the lime
of the irrand finale The
storm did not center on the
lake itself but everyone was
appreciative of the warning,
never the less.
According to Rar Hoare.

Give Blood This Summer
Increased motor travel in
summer, with increased
hazard of accidents plus
regular hksri needs, keep
hospital demand for blood
continuous in the vacation
months. Elaine Jasperse.
Harry County Red Cross
Bksri Chairwoman said.
We urge you to call the
Harry County Chapter to
schedule a blood donation
before you go on your vara
tom.
"All healthy persons he
tween the ages of 17 or 18
and 65 arr eligible to don
ate."
The only scheduled Blood
mobile visit in Harry County
this month is July 19 at the
Hastings American legion.
Th* hours arr lift.

The whole procedure of
donating blood only requires
about 40 minutes from be­
ginning to end. Mrs. Jas
perse explained. “The actual
donating time takes less
than ten minutes The rest is
■ vrupsed by getting the
donor's medical history,
temperature. bl&lt;M&gt;d pressure
and a hemoglobin test, with
a short rest with refresh
men tv after the donation."
Mrs. Jasperse pointed out
that while one unit of whole
blood is still sometimes used
for only one patient, blood is
frequently separated into its
components red cells, plate
lets, plasma, and cryoprvci
pitales and used to treat
several different persons.

The plasma, she said, can
be frartiouled into serum
albumin, gamma globulin, or
antihemophilic factor deri
vatives that may be used in
the treatment of several
maladies.
Today, thanks to modern
technology and medical ad
vances, a variety of uses
exists lor each individual
unit of blood donated. That's
why we say thal your blood
ean be used to save several
lives," Mrs Jasperse said.
Those wishing to donate
blood are requested to call
the Barry County Chapter at
9453122 for aa appointment.

when the father picked up an oid bucket with many
bolas in the bottom and sent the boy down to Ihe
spring for a bucket of water. With so many boles in the
bucket the water had al run out by the time the boy
got bock. But the father sent hen again and again
Finally the son asked. "Why do you keep sending me
after water with this old bucket when oil the water
runs out before I get back?" The man replied. "But
just look how clean ihe buckm ie on the inside"
His purpose was to teach the boy a lesson He
said. "Son. that’s the way it ia when you read the
Bible You don’t remember ail you road, but It helps to

If you have fait that Bibio reading does you fettle

This Week’s Message

NOW FAITH IS By REV. HARVEY BEACH
Fwm PiMbyiarian Church
What t&gt; the true moaning ol Chiwtian
lanh* Let ux share two txampte* from
Scripture to show the drvorwty which emtted
even during lhe earthly Mo o» Jeaua Chnat.
the central Parton in Christian faith
In three goapoi accounts (Matthew 1ftIB32; Mark 10*17-31; Luke 1ftIB-30) there ts the
encounter of the rich young man with Jesus
Ho asked. "What must I do to inherit eternal
Me*" After some questions and statements.
Jesus final summary to him was. “Go. soil ail
you have and grve lo lhe poor, and come and
follow me." The young man left deeply
drsappomted
Jesus was contmuafty confronted by
groups. m*nly (hose rekgaous leaders m the
various communities, who demanded a sign,
some great miracle, which would prove to
them that ho was really Irom God Jesus
consrstently refused lo answer their de
mends He sard that if he performed the most
spectacular rrwacle potarttie. they ft* would
not believe Thea "faith" was the yes
but" variety. wh«ch would demand st*
greater and bgyger rneades.
From these two • •am pies. let us draw an
analogy for today There are those who
would interpret the encounter of Jesus with
the rich young man lu mean that Christ faith
demands our giving up our possessions,
becoming poverty stricken, in order to gam
faith St Francis took th*
eternal Mo
account MaraUy. and poraonady sacrificed h.s
fortune to become a wandering monk What
Jesus is saying to us o. "What &gt;eaily
possesses you*" Are we so enshared by our
ixnsessxins m this life that we would find it
difficult to awe them up to gain greater
meaning lor our Me* One does not hove to

be rich tor poverty stricken) to realize that
w» an cling to our possessions for security
Christian faith demands the willingness to
nsk giving up our security to gam the greeter
meaning for Me
How many of us are like those persons
who contmuaty demanded "proofs" m order
to beteve tn God* "If you w* cure me-- -."
"If you w* provide
or other conditions
to beirevmg m God Such persons are
self seeking Faith for them must satisfy thee
own selfish desires They ate also demanding
a secure base Irom which to launch out.
Christian faith demands our acceptance
and belief m God. as he has revealed hunted
futy m Jesus Chest Faith demands our
complete trust, regardess of the conditions
which might exit! It might mean that we
must sacrifice our security in order to gam
the greater fullness of hie It might also moan

Christian faith grows out of a personal
relationship with Jesus Christ. It is not our

Early one Sunday morning a minister received a
phone call from a member of the church who excitedly
enctaimed. "He is risen' The minister was speechless
at first, but then he was moved by rhe active faith of
hs Christian brotlie»
"He is risen'" These words were first uttered by
the chscipres of Jesus who had personohy witnessed
the greet event The fact that Jesus was risen is just as
s&lt;*nificani now as it was 1900 yeors ago' It still means
joy. victory, and salvation It means that Jesus is King
ol Kings and Lord of Lords. Those who trust and obey
God are not abandoned, even in death The
resurrection serves as assurance that trust m God is
not dnappomtad

The "Irving hope" of the early Christians could
not be qurmched It has been said that when believers
early limos were persecuted they had to meet
"underground" for worship When they would meet,
they would clasp hands and one would soy. "He is
risen " The other would respond. He is risen mdeed
The resurrection is the true watchword o1 the

Ghosts in Nashville’s 0U Mill Must Find New Abode
By JOHN BOUGHTON
The ghosts in Nashville's
ancient and often controver­
sial grist mill who have
occupied lhe premises from
the lime of the Civd *a&gt;
will be forced to find a new
place d abode soon.
After yean of indecision
and several attempts to save
the old building from de
stroction. the Nashville ViJI
age Council has decided the
null must be demolished ia
the interest of publie safety.
The process of dismantl
ing has started. Friday. July
22. Ovid Price, a Nashville
resident who worked in tbe
mill for about 19 years,
climbed to lhe roof of the
newer part of the structure
and started methodically to
remove parts of the build
ing piece by piece.
Tim Smith. Nashville
superintendent of public
works, said he has applied
for federal funds to hire
three people lo work under
Price's supervision on the
dismantling project. Smith
said the project should take
about two months to cocnplele.
According to Smith, the
present plan is to remove all
salvageable material from
the building and offer it for
sale to the public.
Directors of Charlton
Park Village and Museum
have approached the village
council concerning the water
powered turbine (original)
and some at the transnus
sion geared need before the
mill was converted from
water power to electricity,
•renetimr in 1M7.

built on the east side of the
river about 1865 by Peter
Holler. Before this time
there was a grist mill on the
west side of the river, but
that structure was destroy­
ed by fire sometime earlier.
From the time it was built
on the site of an old sawmill,
which provided much of the
lumber for the building of
lhe vfliage. the grist null ha*
passed through several
hands, all flour nuflers until
the time it was purchased by
Jim Rixor of Nashville, in
1946. Rixor converted it
from a flour mill to a grain
elevator.
The grinding of feed took
more power and speed than
lhe ancient turbine could
provide, so the operation
wa* converted to electrical
power.
Rixor. now retired, said he
was almost completely de
pendent on chance when he
wa* still using the turbine.
"When the water was too
high, we couldn't use the
wheel. When the water got
too low. we couldn't use it. It
is difficult to be in business
every day but unable lo
provide a service for your
customer* because of a cir­
cumstance beyond your coo
troi (water level)." Rixor
said.
The null was purchased by
William Fox of Vermontville
in 1960. Fos, who own*
another mill just four miles
away in Vermontville, found
it not practical or economical
to operate two facilities in
such proximity and discon­
tinued operating the Nash­
ville mill in 1970. Since that
time the building has been
empty and unused.
The Village of Nashville

purchased the mill from Fox
shortly after he discontin-ied
operating from the building.
The village acquired the mill
property tn order lo gain
control of the dam. which
was in poor condition at the
lime. The village has since
made repairs to lhe dam and
will continue to do so in the
future. Should the dam
break and allow the waler
level in lhe mill pond to
revert to tbe original chan
nel. there could be several
legal complications concern
ing ownership ol land which
is now flooded.
Since the property has
been owned and controlled
by the village several al­
ternative options have been
attempted to dispose of the
mill building and grounds,
allowing the village to retain
control of the dam.
PBS Realty of Battle
Creek at one time held an
option to purchase lhe pro
perty with the intention of
I uilding an apartment build­
ing on the site. A group of
concerned citizens formed a
“Save the MUI" Committee,
hoping to restore the build­
ing for poetsrily. Donations
for this project were not
forthcoming and tbe com
miltee ceased to exist.
A group of students from
Jackson Community College
and Albion College attempt
ed lo purchase the mill with
the iatentfon of making it a
museum and a gift shop.
After a fast start, thia pro­
ject also was abandoned.
Because lhe antique build­
ing is in such poor repair,
the village is no longer able
to obtain Insurance on it.
Fearing a tragic accident on
the property, the village

council had no alternative
but to dispose of the danger
as soon as possible.
Tim Boucher, owner of
PBS. h’j indicated hi* or
ganixatioo is no longer in
terested in the property.
Tim Smith is of the
opinion the land will either
become a part of the Nash
viBe Park system or be wild
to a commercial developer.
The property is contigtxx:*
with Putnam Park, just
across the river. However.
Smith point* out. Nashville
with a population of about
1.600 already has 12 acre* of
park developed and in the
process of being developed
which would seem adequate.
Smith said as soon a* the
building b removed, the
basement will be filled and a
fence will be installed next
to the spillway to protect
visitors from danger.
Smith said lhe village will
finish putting a concrete rsp
on the present dam and will
build a retainer wall on the
•rest side of the river. Wlut
ever lhe disposition of tbe
land, the village will retain
ownership and control of lhe
For iqnre than a century
tbe stateljold mill has stood
perched on the bank of the
Tbornspplc River just north
of the business district
where Main Street croeae*
the river. Ils once proud
glory now gone, tbe struc­
ture look* sad and abandon
ed. Tbe window*, each srilh
al least four panes of gins*,
attest to the age of the
building. Through the year*,
lhe front of the mill ha*
developed a strange bulge.
A century of shifting ground
has caused the buOding to

lean. The top of the front
door is several inches furth
or west than the bottom.
The siding, unpainted for
more year* than most ran
remember, shows patches of
the red paint that once
covered it.
The front of the building is
covered with metal signs,
advertising various agriciil
tural products. A flimsy
mow fence cordon* the
ouilding off but it would be
of slight deterrent to a
casually determined person
who wanted to gain en­
trance to the building. Out
vide of a few broken win­
dows. there is tittle evidence
of vandalism to the strue
lure.
The nld mill today is a far
cry from the center of act)
vity it once was. Severs! of
tbe older citizens of Nash
vilie can remember stopping
at the mill on their way
home from school to gel a
free glass of cider and an
apple from Miller Ixxiis
lass. Other* tell of pulling a
little wagon to the mill to
purchase 25 pounds of flour
for lhe household baking
needs.
So. lhe ghosts of the
ancient farmer* who used to
sit in the shade waiting lo
unload thetr apples or grain
will have lo go elsewhere.
They will have to find
another friendly pbee to sit
and chew and smoke as they
compare lhe rehtive merit*
' ( their horse teams, rom
plain about the weather,
brag about yields, and bugh
rarously at off-colored joke*
One sign on tbe front of
the building advertise*
"Grace Agricultural Pro­
ducts." Nashville's old mill

ha* experienced it* time &lt;W
grace and several reprieve*
in the past few years. Now it

appears thr final chapter b
bring recorded The work d
demolition ha* Marled and

the day* of the null are
numbered.

Ghosts in Nashville’s 0U Mill Must Find New Abode
By JOHN BOUGHTON
The ghost* in Nashville*
ancient and often controver­
sial grist mill who have
occupied the premises from
the lime of the Civd *a&gt;
will be forced to find a new
place d abode soon.
After yean of indecision
and several attempts to save
the old building from de
struction. the Nashville ViJI
age Council ha* decided the
null must be demolished in
the interest of publie safety.
The process of dismantl
ing has started. Friday. July
22. Ovid Price, a Nashville
resident who worked in tbe
mill for about 19 year*,
climbed to the roof of the
newer part of the structure
and started methodically to
remove part* of the build
ing piece by piece.
Tim Smith. Nashville
superintendent of public
works, said he has applied
for federal fundi to hire
three people to work under
Price'a supervision on the
dismantling project. Smith
said the project should take
about two mouths to com
plele.
According to Smith, the
present plan is to remove all
salvageable material from
the building and ofler it for
sale to the public.
Directors of Charlton
Park Village and Museum
have approached the village
council concerning the water
powered turbine (original)
and some at the transnus
sion geared need before the
mill w&gt;« converted from
water power to electricity,
amnetime in 1M7.

built on the east side of the
river about 1865 by Peter
Holler. Before this time
there was a grist mill on the
west side of the river, but
that structure was destroy­
ed by fire sometime earlier.
From the time it was built
on the site of an old sawmill,
which provided much of the
lumber for the building of
the viiiaue. the grist mill ha*
passed through several
hands, all flour miDers until
the time it was purchased by
Jim Rixor of Nashville, in
1946. Rixor converted it
from a flour mill to a grain
elevator.
The grinding of feed took
more power and speed than
the ancient turbine could
provide. »&lt;&gt; the operation
was converted to electrical
power.
Rixor. now retired, said he
was almost completely de
pendent on chance when he
was still using the turbine.
"When the water was loo
high, we couldn't use the
wheel. When the waler got
too low. we couldn't use it. It
is difficult to be in businc**
every day but unable to
provide a service for your
customer* because of a cir­
cumstance beyond your con
troi (water level)." Rixor
said.
The mill was purchased by
William Fox of Vermontville
in 1960. Foa, who owns
another mill just four mile*
away in Vermontville, found
it not practical or economical
to operate two facilities in
such proximity and discon­
tinued operating the Nash­
ville mill in 1970. Since that
time the building has been
empty and unused.
The Village of Nashville

purchased the mill from Fox
shortly after he discontin-ied
operating from the building.
The village acquired the mill
property in order to gain
control of the dam. which
was in poor condition at the
lime. The village has since
made repairs to the dam and
will continue to do so in the
future. Should the dam
break and allow the water
level in the mill pond to
revert to tbe original chan
nel. there could be several
legal complications concern
ing ownership of land which
is now flooded.
Since the property has
been owned and conlroUec
by the village several al­
ternative options have been
attempted to dispose of the
mill building and ground*,
allowing the village to retain
ennlrol of the dam.
PBS Realty of Battle
Creek at one time held an
option to purchase the pro
perty with the intention of
I uilding an apartment build­
ing on the *ite. A group of
concerned citizens formed a
“Save the MUI" Committee,
hoping to restore the build­
ing for poetsrily. Donations
for this project were not
forthcoming and tbe com
miltee ceased to exist.
A group of students from
Jackson Community College
and Albion College attempt
ed to purchase the mill with
the intention of making it a
museum and a gift shop.
After a fast start, thia pro­
ject also waa abandoned.
Because the antique build­
ing is in such poor repair,
the village is no longer able
to obtain insurance on it.
Fearing a tragic accident on
the property, the village

council had no alternative
but to dispose of the danger
as soon as possible.
Tim Boucher, owner of
PBS. h’j indicated his or
ganixatioa is no longer in
terested in the property.
Tim Smith is of the
opinion the land will either
become a part of the Nash
viBe Park system or be sold
to a commercial developer.
The property is contiguous
with Putnam Park. ju*t
across the river. However.
Smith points out. Nashville
with a population of about
1.600 already has 12 acres of
park developed and in the
process of being developed
which would seem adequate.
Smith said as soon as the
building is removed, the
basement will be filled and a
fence will be inrialled next
to the spillway to protect
visitors from danger.
Smith said the village will
finish putting a concrete rap
on the present dam and will
build a retainer wall ou the
west side of tbe river. What
ever the disposition of tbe
land, the village will retain
ownership and control of the
Foe tqnre than a century
tbe stateljold mill has stood
perched on the bank of the
Thornapplc River just north
of the business district
where Main Street croeaes
the river. Ils once proud
glory now gone, tbe struc­
ture looks sad and abandon
ed. Tbe windows, each with
al least four panes of glass,
attest to the age of the
building. Through the years,
the front of tbe mill has
developed a strange bulge.
A century of shifting ground
has eaured the boOding to

lean. The top of the front
■ianir is several inches furth
or west than the bottom.
The siding, unpainted for
more years than most ran
remember, shows patches of
the red paint that once
covered it.
The front of the building is
covered with metal signs,
advertising various agrktil
tural products. A flimsy
*now fence cordons the
building off but it would be
of slight deterrent to a
casually determined person
who wanted to gain en­
trance to the building. Out
side of a few broken win­
dows. there is tittle evidence
of vandalism to the struc
lure.
The nld mill today is a far
cry from the center of act!
vity it once was. Several of
tbe older citizens of Nash
vilie can remember stopping
at the mill on their way
home from school to gel a
free glass of cider and an
apple from Miller Ixwis
lass. Others ted of pulling a
little wagon to the mill to
purchase 25 pounds of flour
for the household baking
needs.
So. the ghosts of the
ancient farmers who used to
sit in the shade waiting to
unload thetr apples or grain
will have Io go elsewhere.
They will have to find
another friendly place to sit
and chew and smoke as they
compare the relative merits
■( their horse teams, rom
plain about the weather,
brag about yields, and laugh
rarously at off-colored jokes.
One sign on tbe front of
the building advertises
"Grace Agricultural Pro­
ducts." Nashville's old mill

h*« experienced its time &lt;W
grace and several repnevr*
in the past few years. Now it

appear* the final chapter is
bring recorded The work d
demolition ha* started and

the days of the mill are
numbered.

Pattern For
Healthy Grau
By G. ELDON BOWERS
Burry Eilewafaw Agent
For a nrat. healthy lawn,
change your mowing pattern
each time you mow.
Turfgras* specialists at
Michigan State University
explain that varying the
mowing pattern distributes
traffic and wear more uni
formly over the lawn. It
makes high and low spots
less obvious and prevents
lawn mower tracks from
becoming marked.
Tbe easiest way to avoid
following the same path each
time you mow is to mow
across the path you followed
last time. Mow lengthwise
one lime. diagonally the
next, then crosswise. Or
follow a circular pattern,
starting at the edge and
working toward the center.
Whenever possible, make
turns on sidewalks or drive
ways rather than on the
edge of tbe lawn. If you must
turn on the grass, make a
wide, sweeping turn rather
than a rapid, spinning turn.
Quick turns on tbe turf can
land to bruising and .tzriag
and eventual thinning of tbe

showers of "shooting stars"

reports University of Michi

"Occasional meteor show­
ers are usually visible for
two or three weeks, but the
number is likely to reach its
peak around these dates."
she says.
"These meteors, most no
larger than the head of a pin.
may be seen darting across
tbe night sky at a higher
rate than at any other time
of the year. Sometimes near
the peak as many as one per
minute may be counted."
Loth explains that the
date of the meteor show is
determined from the time of
year that the earth encount­

around the sun.
"Although these streaks
of light may be seen in any

portant in preparing the
small try for another nine
months al studies.
The AMA recommends a
thorough health exazninatfon for 5 and 6 year-old*
who are starting school for
the first lime. Your physi­
cian Will know what lo do.
His examination will cover
all aspect* of your child's
health, and will encompass
hearing (to mike certain he
can hear the teacher) and
viafoa (to make *uro he can
see the blackboard). It is
better if thia examination
can be made and booster
immunizatfaaa given a few
weeks before school starts.
School boards in some
communities require a
health exam for beginning
students. Many schools also
require certain immunize
tiona against infectious
disease. Your doctor will
know of the requirements
tor your neighborhood.
Most doctors fed that four
or five thorough health
examinations during the
school year* arc sufficient
for healthy youngsters.
These usually are spaced al
the *tart of the first year,
about tbe fourth grade,
about the seventh grade, al
the ninth or tenth grade, and
upon
graduation.
A
• borough examination is im­
portant if the child is par
ticipating in school athletics.
The doctor should be told
that junior is going out for
football. so that he can look
for any health problems that
might be heightened by
rough contact sports.
In the excitement of the
first few days of school the
small child may forget all of
the safety warnings you've
been leaching him. Each
parent should make certain
the child knows how lo cross
streets and intersection* en
route to and from school. He
*bould know that crossing
guards are there for his
protection and obey them.
He should know about pro
per deportment on the
school bus. He should know
the rules of bicycle safety.

Hastings Child Care: Big, Happy Family
There* a “big. happy
family" in Hasting* with 45
children, ranging from hi
fanl* to 12 year*.
It's the Hasting* Child
Care Center. Inc., which re­
cently moved into it* new.
larger facilities al 214 S.
Hanover Si.
The center is the creation
of Mr. and Mr*. Dave Foote,
who recognized the need for
a day rare center, and built
it from scratch in just a year.
Now they find that despite
the rapid expansion, there is
a waiting list, and a need for
additional service*.
Pat Foote is administra­
tive director of the non pro
fit center, overseeing the
daily activities for the
youngster* and planning
long range program*. Hus
band Dave is the business
manager, although he. loo.
enjoy* working with the
children when he has the
chance.
Dave has d.oe much of
the renovation work on the
new Hanover St. building,
getting it ready for its new
life as a child care center.
About 45 children are now­
using the center, which is
Iwenscd to care for children
from the age of two week*
up to 12 years old. Some
children are t here only a few
hours a week, while others
are there every day. all day.
during the week.
Many, if not most, are the
children
of
working
mother*, who appreciate a
home like place to care for
their children. Some of the

children attend the center at
the request of the Depart­
men' of Social Services,
when a child need* a place to
g&lt;&gt; outside the home with
worthwhile activities, oppor­
tunitie* for play, and good
meal*.
"Hasting* Chad Care Cen
ter emphasize* family living
as well a* providing the pre­
school experience and a se­
quential curriculum in early
childhood education." say*
Pat Foote. In other word*,
they learn how to get along
with other children, and the
activities are planned to
educate a* well as amuse the
children.
The older children, of
course, go to school during
the school year and come to
the center after school Dur­
ing the summer, the older
ones are allowed to partici
pate in the Youth Council
summer recreation activi­
ties.
A visit to the center is like
a visit to a large but or­
ganized household On a nice
day. many of the children
will probably be outside,
enjoying the large treeshaded yard and play equip
mem. Some of the time,
there are organized finei
and activities. Hut the child­
ren arc alio given lime and
the opportunity to plav as
they wish.
(nude, other children may
have help'd themselves to
some old dothr* available to
play "dress-up", or one may
be quietly reading a book or
playing a game for one.

Adequate child care should
be a right, and God know*,
our community can use the

center."
To fulfill the goal, the
Footes work to coordinate

This Week's Message
By PASTOR ROBERT TAYLOR
Nairiv.Uc Assembly of Go&lt;1
There wa* a young lady whoso coo ver
Mtion was mixed with the thought that sho
was young, beautiful, happily married, tn
comfortable circumstances, and with a wide
circle of friends, but sho hod no children
Two children bad been born to her but died
at birth, and her doctors d-d not encourage
the hope for another chM. She was full of
bitterness She said the eiperiencn had made
her an atheist, but with strange inconsisten­
cy. she hated ifm God whom she declared
did not esrsi What have I done to deserve
this’ She would ask with terrible bitterness
and never pause for a reply This personal
drsappomtmont proved to her beyond a
doubt that there was no God in all the
universe
Though with tenderness to turn her
tlioughts. she would not listen She was
beautiful What tied sho done io deserve
that ? She had the love ol a devoted husband.
Nicer women had boon passed try She was
well to do largely by het lather's generosity.
What had sho done to dmervo that! Despite

her disappointments in maternity, she had
wonderful health, friends, a keen mind and
for aw these things she had done nothing.
They were gifts which she bursty noticed in
her spurnrig accusations of a God who
mismanaged his world.
Unhappily, this self tortured soul is losing
the good things she has. Bitiemeaa is a
poison. Il began by affecting her looks, sho
began io look old and hagard. Her hueband to
unhappy because site pours this poison ad
over him, he listens constantly to bitterness.
Her friends have become less devoted
because they don't hke the hrtternesa poured
out to them constantly either.
Her cure is to go to the man who died
upon the cross, the one that death could not
hold, the one that arose the third day victor
over sin. death and hell. No one ever loved as
He loved, served as He served, nor suffered
as He suffered. He never says "What have I
done to deserve this?" He says to al
tormented souls. "Come unto me, aB ye that
labour and are heavy laden, and I will give
you rest" Math. 11:28. Hto name is Jesus.

says. "Ye atoo. aa irong stores, are budt up a spiritual

Barry County. Michipan

WadMaBay, Aug. 3. IfTY

An ordinance to regulate
bonfires and outdoor rub
bish fires became effective
Monday in Barry Township.
Tuwnahip Supervisor Wil­
liam Wooer said the board
adopted the ordinance to
hopefully keep down the
coal of labor for running the
township's fire depart­
ments. He said the town
ship's labor bill jumped from
94,000 to &gt;8,000 during the
past year liccause of an
increase in the number of
grass flrea-aome caused by
faulty trash burners and
others by arsonists.
The township operates a
fire department in Delton
with Prairieville and Hope
Townships and also has a
department in Hickory Cor­
ners.
The ordinance stipulates
that outdoor burning con­
tainers must be of steel or
masonry and have a cover
with openings not larger
than one half inch.
Il will be illegal to have a
boafire or rubbish fire on
public property or on public
streets, alleys, or roads
without a permit from the

Permita alao are required
from the department for
open fires on private land.
Leaves, however, may be
burned in private drivewaya
without a permit, but lhe
fire must be al least IS feet
from any structure and a
minimum 10 feel from neigh­
boring property lines.
All burning must be “con­
stantly supervised and at­
tended in such a manner so
as to insure that no threat to
the public health, safety, and
welfare may result," the
ordinance stales.
Burning garbage or refuse
that smolders or gives off
noxious odors is prohibited.
A person convicted of
violating the ordinance is
subject to a maximum 1100
fine or up to 90 days im­
prisonment in the Barry
County jail or both.
Also, the court rould make
a convicted person be re­
sponsible for the costs in­
curred by a fire department
to respond to fires that are
caused because of a violation
of the ordinance.

Man Killed
Services for Marvin MeWatters. 29, of 7433 Bea
Street. Shelbyville, who was
dead on arrival al I’ipp
Community Hospital in
Plainwell Saturday after
noon, Aug. 6. will be held at
1 p.m. Tuesday at the DitonEbert Funeral Home in Cen
teal Lake.
Burial will be in Southern
Cemetery there.
State Police of the Way­
land Post said McWatters
apparently lost control of his
ear on 124th Avenue, just
cast of Fourth Street. The
car rolled over and hit a
tree.
Mr. McWatters was born
on Nov. 27. 1947. in Char­
levoix. the »on of William
and Sylvia I DeForest) Me
Watters. He was married to
Shirley Antes.
In addition to his wife, he
is survived by two sons.
Marty and Abe. both of
Three Rivers; step sons Tim
and Tom Hower of Shelby­
ville; three daughters. Pat­
ty, Shelly and Donna, all of
Three Rivers; four brothers,
and four sisters.
Arrangements were made
by the Marshall-Gren Fun­
eral Home In Plainwell.

Extended Area Service
(EAS) system which allows
Hickory's customers to
make toll free calls to Bat­
tle Creek, Kalamaxoo.
Augusta and three other
exchanges with a total of
some 200,000 telephones. A
company witness had lesti
fled that elimination uf all
EAS routes would permit
one-party residential rates
to be reduced by about 96.90
per month.
The order Mid:
"The Commission had at­
tempted to determine (by
survey) lhe extent of the
desire of lhe Hickory sub­
scribers to have a continued
extensive EAS system in
the face of higher rales.
That survey was not con­
clusive. However, the high
rate of usage of the EAS
system by the Hickory sub
scribers indicates a continu­
ed desire and/or need for
the system."
The Commission divided
the S90.000 estimated cost of
the rate case between Hic­
kory's stockholders and cus­
tomers.
The order said:
"The Commission has in
the past been very reluctant
to disallow a utility's rate
case expenses inasmuch as
they represent a legitimate
cost of doing businesa. How­
ever. this case is unlike any
previous case before the
Cctnmisaic».-To disallow a
major portion of this incur­
red rate case expense would
be unfair to Applicant I Hic­
kory!. Conversely, to allow
lhe total amount would be
just as unfair to the rate­
payers.
"The commission reeogni
res lhe tremendous burden
placed upon the ratepayers
by the total claimed rate
case expense, which is more
than a thousand main sta­
tions can reasonably bear...
“It is the commission's
finding that in these unusual
circumstances, the ratepay­
ers and Applicant's share­
bidders should share equally
in this expense . Therefore
the commission is allowing
only one-half of applicant*
claimed rale ease expense or
945.000. to be charged as
cost of service, amortized
over five years. The remain­
ing 945.000 is to be charged
to applicant's stockholders."
Today's action is an out­
growth of an order issued by
the Commission on Novem

her 24. 1975, raising Hie
kory’s revenue by 974.785
and aetting one-party resi­
dential rates al 916.35. the
highest in the state.
Hickory subscribers peti­
tioned for a rehearing and on
Feb. 9,1976. the ctxnmi.«*ion
on it• own motion ordered
the proceedings reopened.
At first limited to five
issues, the reopened pro
reedings were expanded in
May 1976 to include "any
and all evidence relevant to
future charges and rales." In
July 1976, Hickocy Tele­
phone Company filed a sup­
plemental application with
updated financial data re­
questing a revenue increase
that would result in monthly
one party residential rates
of 921.
In the meantime, in re­
sponse to a motion by Hic­
kory
subscribers,
lhe
Ingham County Circuit
Court on April 13. 1976.
restrained the company
from roliecimg the rates
approved in November 1975.
The Michigan Court of Ap­
peals. on May 20. 1976,
reversed lhe Circuit Court,
in part, to allow the utility to
collect the increased rales
under bond and subject to
refund with Interest upon
terms to be approved by the
Circuit Court.
In the case decided last
week, the Attorney General
argued that lhe commiasion s order should be made
retroactive to Dee. 1. 1975.
However, the order said:
"....the Commission has
stressed and again empha
sixes at this point that the
rates set in its 1975 Order
were based on the bast
available record evidence.
Therefore the commission
does not determine that
such rates were unlawful
and cannot order a refund at
this time since it would con­
stitute retroactive ratemak­
ing. prohibited by a long line
of Supreme Court decisions.
"Moreover, the eommls
sion considers the question
of refunds in this else to be a
matter within the jurisdic­
tion of lhe Circuit Court,
inasmuch as the Court of
Appeals, in its order of May
20. 1976. indicated that the
rates collected from that
day forward would be under
bond and 'subject to refund
with interest upon terms to
be approved by the Circuit
Court.'”

Win Rate Reduction
The Michigan Public Ser­
vice Commission has ap­
proved new rales for cus­
tomers of Hickory Tele­
phone Company, lowering
the charge for one party
residential service from
116J5 to 9)3.25 per month.
The company, a wholly
owned subsidiary of Tele­

proximately 1,000 subscrib­
ers in Hickory Comers and
four townships in Barry and
Kalamaxoo counties.
In the order, the Commis­
sion disallowed various costs
of service and made operat­
ing adjustments that will
reduce Hickory's revenue by
938.464
The order also:
•Raised coin telephone
charges from 10 cents to 20
cents per call.
•Eliminated as a cost of
service the amount paid as

•Set the overall rates of

Michigan Students Better
Than U.S. Average
. Michigan students over
the past 15 years have
outperformed the national
average. Paul Henry, a pro
lessor at Calvin College who
wa* appointed to the State
Board of Education by
Governor Milliken, told
Hastinp Rotarian* at their
regular Monday noon lunch­
eon meeting at the Moose
Hall.
The only thing. Dr. Henry
said, the national average of
achievement has been going
down during that period, but
Michigan's average has not
been dropping as much as
the national percentage.
Henry discussed the vast
ness of the education busi­
ness in Michigan, pointing
out there are two million
ehildren in kindergarten
through the 12th grade in
public schools and another
200.0UC in parochial and
other private aehool*. There
is another half-million In

lion. Henry said school*
operate the largest transit
system in the stale, serve
more meal* than any busi­
ness. operate the largest
social service and counseling
businc**, have more real
estate, are among the lar­
gest bankers providing 940
million in scholarships and
have 180.000 worker* in K
through 12.
"Superintendents sound
like heating and cooling en­
gineers" when they get to­
gether. they have to be so
concerned with fuel cost*
and air conditioning.
Fewer than half of the
180.000 school employees
are teachers. Henry said.
He suggested superinten­
dents and other educator*
emphasize the positive, or
what is right with the
school* when they ask for
millage. Educators are faced
with leaching kid* who
spend more time in one year
watching television than
their 900 hours in the class
room. School* arc expected
to solve social problems
including race prejudices
and breaks with moral
tradition*.
Decline in enrollments
throughout the slate is al
ready here, and it will have a
profound effect on the K-12
school*. Teacher* are threat ened with job layoff* with
more and more money going
into school supportive ser­
vices.
Teachers, through the
powerful Michigan Educa­
tion Association, are seeking
slate wide contract negotia

tion*. The MEA spend*
more money on election*
then the UAW.
Henry said more money is
spent for program* for the
under-achievers, whose
score* have been going up.
However, the academically
gifted student*' scores
haven't been improving.
Michigan is spending 930
million a year for special
programs for the under­
achiever*. and 9133.000 a
year for the gifted.
Henry said property taxes
and equalization figure* are
misunderstood. He explain­
ed that with Michigan'* fiat
rale income tax system,
which provides few loop­
hole*. property taxes for
school* generally are offset
by the income tax credit. It
is hard to explain that to the
voters, he said.
Michigan has one of the
best high school system*, aa
it provides vocational stu­
dent* to continue to obtain
the regular high school
courses along with the one*
in which they arc learning
marketable skills. College­
bound students are also
encouraged to participate in
the vocational program.
He said the legislation de­
signed to give part-time
school employees unemploy­
ment benefit* during the
summers will be costly to
taxpayer*. It could result in
rewriting contract* to pro­
vide pay fnr those em­
ployees. such as bus drivers,
over 52 weeks. In someplaces hu* drivers earn more
than teachers. Henry said.

Barry Commissioner Writes
About Snow Removal Here
Richard Rose of Hastings,
a member of the Barry
County Road Commission,
prepared a story about
Barry County which was
published in the July edition
of the Michigan Contractor
&amp; Building Magazine.
Tbe July issue featured
“winter operations."
Commissioner Rose's
story follows:
Barry County is four
townships square for a total
of 16 townships. The largest
city is Hastings with a
population from 6000 to
8000. We also have five or
six villages with populations
of from 500 to 2000. We have
some manufacturing in the
county, which furnishes
steady employment, and wc
art as home base for a
sizeable work force who
drive daily to neighboring
metropolitan areas for em­
ployment.
Some parts of Barry
County are blessed with
wonderful soil and in these
area* we have some beauti­
ful farm* which produce
grains and vegetables as
well as support some very
productive milk suppliers. In
other parts uf the county we
have land that nearly dupli­
cate* the "outback" country
of Northern Michigan. And
the scenery in this area,
with its hill* and 200 named
lake*,
approaches
the
beauty of Michigan's Upper
Peninsula.
During the last several
year* we have experienced
an influx of people moving
into county searching for a
peaceful place to raise their
families. They usually end
up in the areas blessed with
peace and quirt. Some rimes
Mother Nature throws in a
real blizzard which no one
can handle and then these
people find they have too
much peace and quiet.
Barry County is also very
proud of its highly rated
schools and churches, a very
big factor in the decision to
move into the county. Al­
though Barry County is look­
ed upon as rural, it is easy to
realize that the snow re­
moval problem i* a matter of
timing. The loads of farm
suppliers are getting larger
and heavier: the daily milk
production must get to mar­
ket each day. The materials
for manufacturing move in
each day and the finished
products must move out.
The people going to and
from work move on a daily
time schedule.
The Barry County Road
Commission tries to remove
the snow and to treat the fee
so that these time schedules
can be met each day. Gen­
erally speaking, the commis­
sion does a pretty good job
except for a few times.

usually every 7 to 10 year*,
when Mother Nature lakes
it upon herself to prove to
everyone that mere man and
machinery are not going to
entirely rule the situation.
The Barry County Road
Commission is responsible
for 337 miles of primary road
and 750 miles of secondary
road for a total of 1087 mile*.
Of this total there are about
500 miles of prime and
double seal type of hard
surfacing.
During a snow storm it
doesn't take long to learn
that primary and secondary
roads do not mean much.
Everyone, rcgarldes* of
which type of road he lives
on. must be able to get out in
order for the area to func
lion properly. The milk pro
durcr must move his milk in
a very short lime or dump it
at a great loss. Those going
to work must get out or the
industrial plant* arc disrup
ted. The school must try to
leach the required number
of day* or the learning pro
cess is disrupted. In addition
to this, people need medical
suppik**. and fire fighters
cannot function unless the
roads are clear. Also in
winter the police play a very
important role.
COOPERATIVE PEOPLE
Wc in the Barry Road
Commission arc extremely
fortunate to have very ex­
cellent employees who are
faithful and dedicated to
their work. We are fortu­
nate to have the full coopcra
Hon of the people in the
county who use the roads.
Wc arc fortunate to have the
full cooperation of the law
enforcement people, the
local radio station, the local
papers and television. We
enjoy excellent cooperation
from the school*. Il is a
pleasure to see how every­
one works together in an
emergency situation.
To carry out this import­
ant snow removal task the
commission has:
•International Harvester
dump trucks with Root
plows. 16.00034.000 gvw.
•14 International Harves­
ter dump truck* with Root
plow*. 34.000 40.000 gvw.
•International Harvester

Root plows. 46.000-53.000
gvw.
•Motor graders, all equip­
ped with Root plows: 1

used a* a wing to push back
drifts.
Also in the county we
have 15 privately owned
loaders and bulldozers which
wc hire in an emergency.
We have 38 full rime em­
ployees who handle the
snow plow work, and I might
add they do an excellent jobWe operate from a rela
lively new office and garage
building built in 1965. Our
office people and mechanic*
arc just a* faithful and
dedicated a* those who do
the actual snow removal
work. The engineer, assist
ant engineer and mainten
ance superintendent are all
capable and dedicated pro
pie.
I guess what I am trying
to »ay is that the Barry
County Road Commission
enjoy* and appreciates tbe
wonderful cooperation it re
ceives from its employee*
and the people in the rom
munily. In the trying time*
when the income falls far
short as compared to high
cost of the operation, it is a
comfortable feeling to know
that everyone is pulling
together.
These are the thought* of
an old timer who has always
been interested in the Michi
gan Road System and is
very happy to be a »mall
part of this organization.

Director of Public Service*
Kenneth Mberteaux.
Bicyclists also benefit
from the nearly 10.(MM) side
walk ramp- built along
Michigan* Mate highway
system in the last four
year*. Thousand* more have
built into sidewalk* along
city and village streets and
county roads in urban area*,
and mure are being built
every year. All 67 freeway
rest areas in Michigan are
equipped with ramps.
Traditionally, sidewalks
terminated at the curb six to
eight inches above the
street. It was good for drain
age but created an abrupt
step that became an obstacle
to wheelchairs, bicyclists
and elderly people with
limited mobility.
In 1973. the State Legis­

"The ramp* have opened

she say*. "Before they were
built, the curbing* circling a
city block might as well have
tievn a wall for those of u*
who are confined to wheel

The sidewalk ramp law
wa* one of the first «ucccme* in Michigan of a coalition
of organization* ranging
from the National Associa

Ramp* are a mixed bless

Ramps make it easier to

this, many communities de

thing for him. He produced a
gun and a paper bag and
ordered her to put all the
money she had there in that
bag. Of course, she did as
instructed and he hurried
out. The ladies turned in the
alarm a* soon as possible

Russell Lind gave his garage
its "annual cleaning" and the
event was moved in there. It
was a very pleasant affair.
The many friends in this
community were grieved to
learn of the death Saturday
evening of Homer Bartlett, a
long lime and highly re­
spected businessman of
Lake Odessa. Mr a. Bartlett
is sv-riously ill at Pennock
Hospital.
Rev. Dennis Deinond was
a guest of his brother. David
and family and visited his
mother at the Medical Care
Facility Sunday until Mon­
day afternoon. He was driv­
ing through from New York,
where he had been in train­
ing to his new work in
California. Dennis, now a
captain, will assume the
Chaplaincy at Fort Ord. on
the Monterey Peninsula in
California. Mrs. Dernond and
baby who have been visiting
her parvnts near Pittsburgh.
Pa., will fly out to her new
home later this week and
join her husband there.
Thi* seems to he the
month for annual reunions
and we've learned of several
of them this week but one
that we want to report is
different. The Lind family
reunion was held Sunday at
Cunningham Acres with 137
sitting down at the festive
board. That was a good sized
crowd and the food was
delicious but what make* it
unusual was the fact that
thi* was the first reunion for
the land family for 65 yearsthe last one was held in 1912.
And this all came about
because a young lady from
California came to Michigan
a year ago searching out the
genealogy of the Lind family
and started the ball roiling
which resulted in the Sun­
day gathering. They were all
direct descendants of Rev.
William Lind who came to
this country from Scotland
in the late 1700s. There were
five present Sunday from
California, three from
Colorado, some from Ohio.
Pennsylvania and Indiana
and Michigan was represent­
ed by relative* from Muske­
gon. Saginaw. Lowell, Ionia.
Midland, Middleville, Cale­
donia. Alto, Freeport,
Clarksville and Woodland.
Dr. and Mrs. Lee Stuart
and baby of Lake Odessa
attended the service Sunday
morning at the Woodland
United Methodist Church.
Later they left for Traverse
City for a vacation and
where Dr. will attend a
medical conference.
Mr. and Mrs. Victor Sis­
son accompanied Mr. and
Mrs. Rhyner Scholma of
Algonquin Lake, and Mrs.
Barbara Clinton of Middle­
ville to Battle Creek last
Thursday evening for a
meeting of World Book Rep
rrsentative*. Saturday eve­
ning the Sisson* attended
the potluck picnic of their
Sunday School class al the
Wesleyan
Campgrounds
south of Hastings. Monday
dinner guests at the Sisson
home were Mrs. Vernie Ga­
briel Crandell of Cedar
Springs, sister of tbe late
Mr*. Glen Hendee, and her
daughter. Mrs. Rose Fergu­
son of Kaneohi, Hawaii. Mr*.
Ferguson and her eon came
to the mainland about seven
weeks ago and have been
visiting relatives in various
places. Mr. Ferguson accomponied them to California by
air. then rented a car for
their traveling here. He has
returned to his work in
Hawaii and the others plan
to remain here a couple of
weeka longer. They also
visited the grave of Mrs.
Hendee in Woodland Ceme­
tery and called on Mrs.
Hildred Hesterly in Wood­
land before returning to
Cedar Springs where Mrs.
Crandell is being cared for in
a nursing home.
Last Thursday. Mrs.
Barry Donaldson took her
mother, Mrs. Elwin Curtis,
her nephew. Brad Scobey,
and her sons, Brian and
Brent to TurkeyvOJe for
dinner. Saturday Mr. and
Mrs. Elwin Curtis took tbe
three grandson* as their
guests to the Bliss Co. picnic
held at the fairgrounds in
Hastings. Sunday the Don­
aldsons attended the Barry
Family Reunion at the home
of Mrs. Rose Barry in Hast­
ings.

he was driving north oa

In a recent article in a
statewide magazine, it slat­
ed “The real challenge to the
improvement of highway
transportation lie* outside
the interstate system.
These med* represent 99%
of the nation's total highway
network and ihey account
for HO0* of the vehicle miles
&lt;f travel These are in
urgent need of upgrading,
maintenance and major im
provement*."
Harry County has 338
mile* of primary roads and
747 miles of local roods for a
total of 1JMS miles. If these
mile, were laid end to end.
they would extend from
llattings into the northern
part of the alate of Florida-,
or from Hasting* into the
northern part of the state of
Texas; or almost to the
eastern parts of tbe states of
Colorado and Wyoming.
Included in this 1.085
miles. Barry County haa
about 500 miles of blacktop

mile* were byvd end to end.
a person rould travel on

Religious Group Interested
In Acquiring Hastings Airport
A religious organization is
interested in acquiring the
Hastings Airport for train­
ing it* own pilots. Alderman
William Cusack, chairman of
the city council property and
airport committee, said after
a meeting of Hastings coun
cilmrn and Harry County
commissioner* held Tuesday
evening. Aug. 9.
Alderman Cusack said the
proposal wav made by Bob
Bogart of Ada. who repre­
sents the Preferred De­
velopment Company of
Grand Rapids. Cusack said
Bogart did not say what
organirallon was interested
in the airfield.
The organiration is in­
terested in having a field to

tie used to training mission
aries a* bush pilots.
Cusack said he intended to
ask the city council for
authorization Io have an
appraisal of the field made
by a private organization.
“It sounds like a wonder
ful proposal." Cusack said.
Cusack said it was his under
standing that such an air
port would be kept open foe
use by the public, while
being used for specific train
ing purposes.
Cusack said as soon as an
appraisal is obtained, Bogart
would meet with his client to
determine if they were Mill
interested.
Cusack said every reduc­
tion in municipal cost* would

help reduce lax problems,
and it would be a “wonder
ful thing to have the airport
kept open."
Hastings and Barry
County are joining in the
operation of the municipal
field, and the council and
board of commissioners have
approved resolutions creat­
ing a joint Airport Commit
tee to be composed of five
members, two from each
governing body and a fifth to
be named by the four.
At the meeting with Bo­
gart were his wife. County
Commissioners Lulher I&lt;nz
and Bob Bender. Aiderman
Cusack and William Cook
and Mayor Ivan Snyder.

Organize Gun Lake

Area Sewer Authority
With a federal grant of
*55.000 and a stale grant of
*26.997 for the Mepone
plans for a sanitary sewer
system to serve Gun. Bar­
low, Cobb and Payne LakM,
plan* are going forward and
Yankee Spring*. Orange­
ville. Wsyland and Martin
townships have formed the
Gun Lake Area Sewer
Authority.
The sanitary »cwrr will
serve an estimated summer
population of 9.540 and is
designed to service a peak
population of 14340 in main*
extending some 53 mile*.
The federal government is
scheduled l&lt;&gt; pickup 75 per
cent of the estimated
*17.620.000 cost, the Mate
five percent and the re­
mainder will be handled by a
revenue bond Issue.
Drain Commissioner Ray
Bratton reported that word
had been received for fund
ing of Mop two. which is for
the layout and design of the
syMem. Step three will be
for the actual construction.
The sewage disposal plant
is to be in Orangeville Town­
ship about a half mile south
ol Gun l^ke. The effluent,
after going through the
plant, will be pumped into a
large holding pond and then
into the Gun River. Test
well* and pump* are to be
inMallcd around the holding
pond to be used to delect
any pollution which might
seep into the ground waler.
There will be a holding pond

•xi the down&gt;tream side of
the test well* to that if
pollution is detected, th*
effluent can be pumped out
and back again to prevent
stream contamination.
Only property which la
actually hooked up to the
•ystum will pay sewer bene­
fit*. Estimated coM*-which
could vary when construe
tion bids are received-inelude between *1,800 to
*2.000 capital cost* for put­
ting in the syMem. and *300
for lapin. Operating costs
are being estimated at about
*6 to *9 a month.
The 20 percent of the
townships' share will be
financed by the revenue
bonds. After the syMem is
in. the new Gun lake Sewer
Authority will lake over and
operate, maintain, adminis­
ter and manage the system.
The Gun lake Area Sew­
er Authority i* a body
corporate, with power to sue
and will exist until dissolved
by act of the township*, or
by law. The fiscal year will
be the regular calendar year
and the governing body will
include the supervisor of
each of the four township*.
M-rving wiih compensation.
No compensation will be
paid until money is avail
able, with commissioners re
reiving *50 for each meeting
not to exceed *1.200 a year,
retroactive to the First com­
mission meeting. A secre­

Visitor* may even see an
antique fire truck.
When asked what moti­
vates the antique car buff.
Charles Rominger of Hatlie
Creek, chairman of the
event, had this to say:
"After you've done all of the
wack, spent the money,
searched out the authentic
parts, and finally drive it
down the street the first
time...that's when the reward comes. People turn
their heads and come up to
you and want to talk about
the car. There was an in­
dividuality. a personality, to
yesterday's cars that you
just can't find today. Model
A's and Model Ta were
unmistakable as were moat
car* prior to World War 11.
Every car in this show ia a
little bit different; every
owner ha* hi« particular
favorite. Visitors usually
end up picking out their own
favorites after they've look­
ed around."
Each car will be displayed
with the year, make and
owner's name. In most
eases, the owner himself will
be on hand to answer ques
tions about restoration
Vendors will set up shop
providing continuous oppor­
tunity to find, buy and swap

comedy .-Bauer pbolo.

The play is called "The
Brother* O'Toole", and it i*
bring staged Fnday and
Saturday evening* at th*
church in Chariton Park.
It’s a period comedy, full
of corny joke*, and a com
plelely enjoyable piece of
theater. In these days of
vulgar art. this is a play with
no had language and no
off color remark*. It's a play
your children will enjoy a*
much a* you.
The story is hardly new.
but it's still good. It'* about a
pair of con men named
OToule (aren't Irishmen the
best cun men?) who come to
a small Colorado town and
propose to make it pro*
perous by opening a gamb
ling hall. The idea fail*, of
course, but on the way the
audience meets the town's
mayor who doubles a* un
dertaker and preacher, the
ineffective sheriff, an Annie
Oakley type cowgirl, an
unkempt mountain man and
varxv* other stock comic
characters.
In all. the cast number*
17. which i&gt; a pretty large
product km for the fledgling

er*. But the local theater
group i» up to the task, and
you will leave tired from
laughing.
We attended a rehearsal
last week, and were plea
*antly surprised with the
way the cast i* shaping up.
Some of the folk* have been
in local productions before,
and a tew of them are new to
the stage. But they obvious
ly have neen working hard,
and also are enjoying them
seives. The latter i* especial
ly important to a comedy,
because they can help the
audience enjoy the play.
We wish this could be a
review. But the play ha* yet
lu be put on publicly, and we
didn't see the entire pro
duction. But from what we
saw. it'* good. clean comedy,
and fun for cast and
audience alike.

Social Security Notes
By WiBtam GVanPyto
Social Security Agent
Q. I'm getting the mini­
mum social security retire­
ment amount on my own
record. Can I get an addi­
tional benefit on my wife's
record when she retires next
year?
A. If half of her full benefit
is larger than what you are
gelling, you may be able to
get an additional amount on
her record. Ask any social
security office about your

security and supplemental
security income checks and
recently rented out a room
in my home for TAO a month.
Ho*, will this affect my
benefits?
A. Il will not affect your
social security payments as
only earnings from work can
affect them. Rental income
may affect your SSL how
ever. You should report it
promptly to social security.

without undue delay.
Q. I&gt;o I have to pay my
doctor bills before I send a

A. You may submit your
bills to Medicare either be

After you have met the 160

Thosu wo visit often ask. 'What de

In the early days of Christianity such a
question would have been absurd The
original follower* of Jesua were simply called
Christiana" (Acta 11:261, and collectivaiy,
churches of Christ" (Rom. 16:16). Both
names mean, "belonging to Christ " There
wete no denommation* Either a person was
a Christian or he was not a Christian The
apostles, as well as all who were being saved,
were neither Protestant not Catholic. All
were Christians and Christians only.
Jesus told His followers He would build a
church (Man I6 18&gt; Hm Church is the
orignai and thus, the oldest Church in the
world Jesus is its founder and its foundation

established by God and the only one God has
ever desired us to be a part of
Denominations came into existence when
men began to depart from the teachngs and
practices Jesus instituted »or the Church
Fach departing faction became known by a
denomination I "denomination" means, "to
name "I that would identify them as holding "
position different from that of the original
teaching Usually this denomination was the
name of one of it* leading spokesmen (such
as. Wirsley or Luther), or wa* known by the
word representing the point of contention
(such a* holmes*, baptism, presbytry)
Jesus and His apostles did not approve of
those m their day who tried to create drvision
within the Church which would have resulted

in denommat localism Jesus prayed that "ad

Christ's. Wo follow the pattern God set forth
in the Bible regarding the leachings and

Surety this is what God wants Disputing
and denommationahsm have been among
Ihe devil's prime weapons against the cause
of Christ If God had intended many separate
organizations to do His work, why would He
take the time to e&gt;plain how the church
should act and teach’ If one church is as
good as another, why tLd Jesus establish just
one instead of many’ Why did He say there
is but one body’ (Eph 4:4; 1 22 231.
We can. and should, be "just Christiana”
today We can and should, preach and
practice thr1 same things as the fust
Christians We can by putting down man

and taking up the Bible as our pattern for kfe
and gorttmess We should because this is
what the Word of God shows ut God wants
Today you can read in you: Bible what

Sheriff Pleased
With ‘Officers'

Benefit Plan'
Harry County Sheriff
David O. Wood said he wa*
"extremely pleased" with
the recommendation of
Michigan* Attorney Gm
era I Frank J. Kelley’» for a
"Peace Officers’ Benefit
Ilan."
Atty. Gm. Kelley made
the recommendation at the
recent state prosecuting al
lorney's convention al Mac
kinar Island.
Kelley* plan is designer!
to provide benefits for the
dependent* of peace officer*
who are slain in the line of
duty. The plan includes:
Tuition free college or
trade school education fur
the spouM-sandchildren of a
slain peace officer.
A hrnefit paymen t of
$100 per week for life to the
spouse of a slain peace
officer.
A benefit payment of $25
per week to the child of a
slain peace officer lasting
until the child complete* hi*
education.
Extending the benefit
program Io include not only
those who are killed after
the program is enacted but
the families of all those ever
killed in the state.
(overage of ail peace
officers. This would include
state and local police, fire­
men. conservation officer*,
and others involved in the
control or reduction of
criminal act*, or the enforce
ment of criminal laws.
Kelley said. “I make this
proposal not with a view of
giving the family of a peace
officer a gift, but rather with
a view toward partially com
penciling them for their
loss. After al), the family of a
peace officer slain in the line
of duly ha* little hope of
suing the criminal who cau*
ed the death.
"Certainly, these two law*
will cost some amount of
money. Hut I don’t believe
the cost will be an undue
burden on thr state budget
I beletve it is the least we
should do to express our
gratitude to those pmplr on
thr front line in the battle
against crime."
Kelley said he would pre
sent the plan a* a specific
legislative proposal to the
Michigan legislature when H
comet back into session in
September.
Kelley presented the
Peace Officers’ Benefit
Plan" during a speech on the
Mate &lt;&gt;f criminal justice in
Michigan.
In that speech Kelley said
the alate was reaching a
turning point in it* criminal
justice system, with mure
attention being paid to how
that system serves the vic

being totally concerned wit.i

Hickory Protesters Meet
Thursday To Renew Fight
Hickory Telephone Com­
pany subscribers who have
vowed to continue their
fight for lower ralea In the
court*, will explain their
reasons at a meeting Thur*
day. Aug. 23.
"Many people are asking.
'Why should we continue
fight ing.r The battle has
gone &lt;» a long, long t ime and
they arc getting tired.'* said
Dorothy Kettle, a spokes­
man for lhe subscriber*
pr-ilert committee.
She said she believes lhe
majority of customers will
support lhe continued fight,
if they understand the re*
sons behind it.
Thursday's meeting will
he held at the Gull I Ake
Middle School on 40th
Street.
Subscriber* have been In­
volved in the rate dispute
since November. 1975. when
the Michigan l*ubtic Service
Commission I MPSC) approv­
ed a S16JS monthly rale for
basic one party residential
service, the highest in lhe
state.
The MPSC, after a rehear
ing of the rate case, earlier
this month decided to lower
Hickory's rat to 113.25. But
it did not order refunds lo
customers and said the sub
scribers would have lo pay
half of lhe company's
*90.000 rale case expense
which is to be charged as a
cost of service over a five
year period.
Those two points of lhe
MPSC order arc the major
reason* for going hack to
Ingham County Circuit Curt.
Mrs. Kettle said.
A complaint and a motion
for leave to appeal again*!
the MPSC and the telephone
company were to be filed
with the court last week.
The renewed baltle in the
courts will go before Ingham
Circuit Judge James T. Kall
man. the same judge who at
one time granted a tern
porary rollback of lhe phone
company's 1975 rate in­
crease. However, that action
was suspended by th* state
appellate court.
By returning to court.
Mr*. Kettle *aid the sub
scriber*' attorney. Philip
Hummer, will be able to “try
to get Ihc company's legal
expense* taken off our
shoulders."
She said, "the administra­
tive law judge and the
I MPSCI commissioners all
stated that lhe telephone
company's legal fee* were
five limes in excess of the
average rale case. So he
i Hummer I feels that w»
shouldn't have to pay any­
more than one-fifth of lhe
total amount."

customers should not lie
ordered to share the com
pany'* cost for legal ex
pcnscs. there would be a
further reduction in the
phone rate. Mrs. Kettle said.
She also pointed out that
there t» no provision in the
MPSC order staling that it
would eliminate th* coal of
service for the company's
rate ease expense*, and thus
reduce lhe rate, al the end of
lhe five year period.
Returning to circuit court
is the only recourse that
subscriber* have to seek re
funds for lhe difference be
tween the 116.35 and 113.25
rales.
Mr*. Kellie said Hummer
will ask the court for rebates
plus interest, retroactive to
Dec. 1. 1975 (when the
higher rate became effec
live) for subscriber* who
still have their telephones.
Hummer also will ask for
free reconnection for the
approximately 100 custom
era who have discontinued
their telephone service in
protest to the rate increase,
she said
Another reason for taking
the fight back to court. Mr*.
Kellie noted. wouW be to
seek reimbursement of the
subscribers ’ cost incurred in
the rate battle.
Through a variety of fund
raising events and rash cun
inbution* subscribers have
raised 542,500 to finance the
rate fight.
To date subscriber* have
paid 119.000 for legal ex­
penses and still owe over
15.000 to their attorney and
a utility rale expert who ha*
represented them. The rest
of the fund* have been used
to pay for the expenses of
financing their money mak
tng project*. The group hop
cd to raise enough money at
a chicken barbeque last Sun
day to pay off the 8346 it
owes to the rale expert.
Pancake breakfast*, spun
sored by Ihc committee, will
resume in September, and
the subscribers are hoping
the Internal Revenue Ser
vice will i*«ue it a tax free
number so it can obtain a

cats before, though he has owned two of
them for about eight years You never reeky
own a cat. though They merely consent
to share your home with you
Our older cat was such a cat She was a
array given to us when we had neither pets
nor chadren She became both pet and chad
to us until we had a chad of Our own
in e-gtif .ears She has hved m four
different houses with us. n two states
Although she hies to roam free, she has
always been gooo about coming home She
was gone for a wee* once and we later
found that she had been locked m a church
and would not come out of her hiding place
until a familiar voice imy wife's! called her
On the whole she also has been a
wea behaved cat never destructive and
'a&gt;efv « humored She ahows our three year
old to pet her without fear
But recently she disappeared By the time
she was gone three or four days, we began
to worry 0-r cat has always been careful
around cars but she s not qurte as qmck as

she prayed as a kitten, how she would uoua»y
come at our cad. how she always knew what
was home", even when we moved. And
cspccialtv how she had one of the loudest
purrs we ever heard
We never expected to see her agam. or
hear that purr
But after a lapse of st* days, she did indeed
appear on our doorstep one morning, asking
to be led i&gt;ke always
H«r bock legs aren't moving too freefy

there s no way she can ten us about it. But
there are no marks on her skin, and It's

in Michigan and suggested
the Rotarians might chai
lengr the Kiwanians to see
which dub can have the

His suggestion was made
after he noted that the
Kiwanis and Rotary annual
golf outing is to be held on
Sept. 14 al the Hastings
Country Club.
Short discussed diabetes,
and told how diabetics must
leara to live with their
disease, learning to live
with diabetes is a difficult
task for anyone, but children
and teenagers with diabetes
have very special needs.
Rotary l*re»idrnt James
Spindler. M.D.. after Short's
presentation, reviewed his
time spent al a special
summer camp in Indiana for
children with diabetes. He
suggested the local Rotary
might assist a similar camp
here in Michigan. Camp
Midicha in Michigan is a

special medically supervised
summer camp for children
with diabetes. Diabetes is a
lifelong disease and learn
ing about it is aa ongoing

Diabetes is a disease in
which lhe body is either

Attorney Richard M.
Hauer of Hastings has filed a
suit in Barry County Court
*rrkmg a wnt of mandamus
ordering the Harry County
Board of Commissioners,
Hastings City Council. Pro
securing Attorney Gary Hol
man and thr 56lh District
Court to “abide by. comply
with, and lawfully enforce
the statutory acta" cited in
the brief regarding animal
nmlrol officer*.
In his complaint Atty.
Hauer. 427 Young Street.
**id he has a special interest
in the enforcement of law*
protecting animals, stating
that a small, harmless dog
has been deprived of proper
food, drink, shelter, or pro
lecrioo from the weather
since July 4. and the sounds
of distress, day and night,
have been a source of annoy
ance and rare to him and his
wife.
Atty. Bauer said the
Hoard of Commiksiooer* has
a clear legal duty to employ
an animal coat nJ officer who
shall have certain minimum
qualifications.
Hr said the city council
has a dear legal duly to
include in its dog ordinance a
“like provision relative to

minimum standards for an
animal control officer. and to
employ such an officer
separate" from one hired by
thr county. It also has the
duly to train police officers
lo enforce laws against
cruelty to animals, he said.
Atty. Bauer said the
animal control officer now
employed by lhe commis­
si.-ners wa* “unlawfully em­
ployed and not lawfully
qualified: and he ha* no legal
authority to art within the
boundaries of the City of
Hastings."
Atty. Bauer said Prmeeu
tor Holman has a “ciea- legal
duty to exercise discretion
relative to a complaint con­
cerning cruelly to animals."
and that the district court
has a similar duty.
Atty. Bauer said that be
cause of failure and refusal
of the defendant* to art
lawfully and because of their
refusal to perform their
dear statuatory duty in
violation of plaintiff* rights
aa a citizen to see the laws
impartially and fairly en
forced, plaintiff ia without
an adequate remedy al law
except by the aid of a writ of
mandamus and an order of
superintending control."

Hastings-Born Smitty Travels
The Land Painting Signs
By HUGH FULLERTON
Banner Publisher
Lika a tone guys named South, they call
hen "Smitty". But unhke a iotta guy* named
Smith, thia one has a way of Me that's
different, and would not be right for all of us
Ho calls himself a traveling sign painter
einl umimxmsI. tlwsri adds that he sometimes
picks a guitar for a living, as well
Hrs name ts Don Smith, and he literally
travels the whole country plying his various
trades
He doos it in style today, in a mco motor
home, artistically painted on the outside to
advertise his work. It says in large skilfully
pamted letters "Signs and Cartoons Across
the Country". In the middle ts a punted
scene ol lhe motor home itself in front of
some mountains which looks kke lhe Tetons.
Don travels with his wife Harriet, and he
says whenever he is in this area, be returns to
h&lt;s birthplace of Hastings. Usually when he's
here, he picks up a little work from past and
new customers, but the main reason he
stops is nostalgia
Ho has relatives in the area, like the two he
met when he was here la»i weekend. But he
doesn't always take the time to look them
up. Often, it's just an overnight stop, with a
little time to work, if there are jobs to be
done
One of Smrtty's local pieces of handiwork
is the s&gt;gn on the Court Street Grill, which he

notes proudly still looks "pretty good.”
although it has been several years since he
painted it. It is signed Smitty Er Donna, as his
daughter Donna was traveling with him
when they stopped here and painted it.
With ail his iraveis- many thousands of
miles a year -Smittv is a man full of Modes
He has seen some of the best and some of
the worst in people, including getting beaten
up by the Flint police and locked in jail for the
weekend, because they were looking for an
embezzler named Don Smith.
However, the Don Smith they wanted was
a big man. well over sis feet, while Smitty
probably stands five feet eight or less He still
carries a card from the Detroit police
sergeant who believed his story and helped
him get out of jak.
Smitty and Harriet find most of their work
in the smaller towns, he says, where there
are no resident sign painters. He has a
regular clientele when he returns to the same
towns in approximately yearly intervals, and
apparently he makes a good living.
We're not sure that we would be happy,
making our home in a different place every
few days. Most of us hove too deep a need to
feel rooted, even in an adopted town.
But we can admire and enjoy the tales of a
man who is acting out the wanderlust that
lies deep within most of us.
See ya again next year. Smitty.

Voice of the People
To the Editor:
We have many miles of
old black top roads in Barry
County that are in im­
mediate need of upgrading.
It may be of interest lo the
Ciple of the County lo
»w how we were able to
upgrade a few of these miles
through the cooperation of
ail unit* of County governThe following is the final
accounting of the costs of
upgrading S J miles of North
Avenue from Lacey south to
the county line. Each gov­
ernmental unit furnished the
following:
County Board of County
Commissioners. $100,000.00
Assyria Township Board.
$9,100.00
Johnstown Township
Board. 11.500.00
Barry County Road Com
mission. $51,058.30
Total cost of the project,
$161,658.30
This would be a little over
$30,500.00 per mile which
would be a terrific burden
for one unit of county gov­
ernment but with the co­
operation of all units of
government the project was
made possible. This is why
lhe Road Commission haa
mentioned many limes that
we greatly appreciate the
full cooperation of lhe people
of the County and the co­
operation of other units of
county government. This
type of project shows what
can be done if we all work
together.

To the Editor:
To The Friends of Joe
Broxak in the Hastings
Area:
Those who were unable to
attend the funeral of our
very good friend will be
gratified to know that the
party who gave the Eulogy
remembered all of you be­
cause many had been pre­

sent at Joe'* retirement.
Being in the Grand Rapid*
area I was able to attend the
funeral along with a fewother familiar faces now
located here. A* I sat
through the service my own
thoughts went back to Joe's
early days at Hastings High
and lhe multitude of *tu
dents who's lives had been
touched by thi* wonderful
guy. I al—ays remembered
the punting game he and
Coach Hawthorne carried on
at football practice.
In more recent year* we
had kept in touch by casual
meetings al a local reMau

rant where we both enjoyed
the food. I recall only recent­
ly his lamenting that lhe last
few years had not taken him
to the Jackson area to visit
&lt;&gt;ur mul ual friend. Miss Rob
son. Thi* wa* typical of the
Hrozak*. always thinking of
the other fellow.
Now Joe is gone! Tomor­
row it will he Simeone else,
maybe you or me.
In the meantime I suggest
you con'act that old friend
that you have not seen
l«i*«ibly *iner High School.
Tomorrow never comes and
if it does it maybe too late.
Personally. I feel this
would be lhe greatest tri­
bute we can pay to our
departed Friend, a really
great guy.

Many people from thia

stale but we're always glad
when a couple who have
worked hard and meant so
much lo so many people can
take a much needed vacation
and go so far from home for
a much needed rest Mr and
Mr*. Ken McCurdy left
Woodland on Saturday. July
Id. and traveled by way of
the Alcan Highway and
spent Id days in that most
interesting stale, seeing
man* of the place* the rest
•d u* would like to see
During their travels they
look 1200 feet of movies and
many snap* that will prove
interesting lo their many
friends. They visitedlhecity
of Valdez. population 1000
and »aw the first lArcol oil
tanker from the Alaskan
pipeline being filled and as it
left Cherry Point Port. Sehe
duled to leave al 7 p.m. it
pulled out al A.M and three
tug* with the fire hose
sprayed water into the air to
celebrate the memorable
event.
Mr McCurdy caught sal­
mon tn the Kenai Fiver and
ale them for supper. They
al*» saw the Yukon, which
flow* from the Yukon terri­
tory southwest arrow* Alas
ka to thr HcnngSea. and lhe
Klondike River where gold
was discovered. They spent
2': day* at Mt. McKinley
Park in the south central
part of the state and were
within .IS mile* of the high
rst peak on the North
American continent. The
*n&lt;&gt;w covered mountain
reaches 20.XMI fed above
*ra level. Although there
are only about 20 days a
year when this great moun­
tain is all visible they were
able to see about
of it.
They also crossed over into
the Yukon Territory and
visited the city of Dawson.
They also visited Anchorage
and Fairbank*.
Il is hard for those of us
who have never visited this
interesting part of our
V.S.A. to realize how far
they are removed from us.
There are 500 miles of
Canadian territory between
Alaska and the state of
Washington. In contrast, it
is only 51 mile* from the
m».l western part of the
Alaskan mainland to Russia
and Alaskan owned Little

and it waa thoroughly en­
joyed. Mr. Haight* many
friends are glad lo learn that

Court Orders New

Trial for Blalock
Reverting his 1975 extor­
tion conviction, the Michigan
Court of Appeals has order­
ed a new trial for a former
Kalamaxoo area narcoties
squad police officer.
The appeal* court said
errors were made by Kala
marno County Circuit Judge
Donald Anderson during the
jury trial of Gary D. Bia
lock. 39. formerly of Vicks­
burg.
Blalock, the former direc­
tor of the Metro Narcotics
Squad, which includes this
area, was accused of threat
cning the life of Deborah
Garthc to keep her from
telling about alleged sex and
drug partie*. involving Bia
lock.
The jury convicted Bia
lock on Aug. 29. 1975. and
Judge Anderson, in October
of 1975. sentenced the ex­
police officer to two to 20
year* in prison.
The appeal court's convic­
tion reversal focused on trial
testimony by Jill Stewart, a

The Gold Eagle Account

former fiance of Blalock. She
testified that Blalock gave
her heroin for use at the
panics and th«t .he had
given it to Mrs. Gartbe.
In it* decision, made pub­
lic today, the slate court
said, in part:
"It b not unreasonable to
believe that an undecided
juror could have been in­
fluenced by this evidence.
The testimony (of Jill Sle­
wart) linked the defendant
to 125 packs of heroin which
had been taken from the
police department. Prior to
this evidence, the defendant
appeared to have only a
casual association with
heroin; after this evidence,
it appeared that the de
fendant was intimately in­
volved with the drug
‘it could leave a juror
with the impression that the
defendant had either stolen
the drug from the police
department or that he was a
member of a gang that had
taken it. In either case, the
nature of this evidence waa
such as to impress on the
minds of undecided jurors
that the defendant was a
bid man.’ This is dearly
improper and requires re­
versal and a new trial."

Deer hunters with a
Michigan Sportsman* Li­

deer this year under a new

the Department of Natural
Resources for their second

The new law authorizes
the taking of two deer in a
calendar year, one during
the bow and arrow season
and one during the firearm
season.
But. since the law took
immediate effect after being
signed by Governor William
G. Milliken on July 27. a
minor problem was created
because Sportsman's Li­
censes hsd already been
prinled-wilh only one vali­
dation tag for deer.
To remedy the situation,
the DNR is providing lags
for the second deer to all
DNR field offices and con­
servation officers
The following rules gover­

Acreage of vegetables in
Michigan for fresh market ia
estimated at 34.600 arret for
harvest in the summer
quarter (July. August and
September), according to
the Michigan Crop Report
mg Service. Acreage of the
seven major vegetables in
1 VTt it 2 percent over last
year and H percent above
I97&amp;.
An unusually early spring
this year allowed early
planting. Frosts in late April
and May made replanting of
some celery and tomato
fields necessary. Celery
plantings are on sch-dule.
Most growers are using
irrigation so lack of moisture
during the recent dry period
has not been a major prob­
lem. Some onion fields were
damaged by advene weath­
er conditions and were re­
planted. but development in
other fields has been aver
age. Early planted sweet
corn field* look good, how
ever later planting* appear
■potty due to poor germina
lion. Cabbage growth ha*
hampered by hot, dry
weather with some replant
ing* necessary.
Acreage increaaes are in­
dicated for carrot*, celery,
tweet com. snap beans, and
cabbage while decreases are

Wallace recalled. She wu
picking tomatoes in her
barvfeet when the rattler
struck.
Mrs. Wallace said she held
up the vine and there the
snake wu. all curled up. She
called her husband and her
son. Daniel Goodenough,
took her to I*ennoek Hospit­
al.
Mr*. Wallace said she wu
more scared than anything,
but »oon her foot hagan to
swell and she couldn't even
move her toes.
Mrs. Wallace's husband.
Robert, killed the snake
after she wu taken to the
hospital. The snake had sev­
en rattlerswhich were
given Io Mrs. Wallace.
Anti-*nakc serum wu ob­
tained from Leila Hospital in
Battle Creek with Deputy
Sheriff Darrel Johnston lea­
ving to get the serum at 3:02
and a) 5:19 he wu sent to
the Kent County line to get
additional serum from Kent
officers who had obtained it
at Buttersworth Hospital in
Grand Rapids.
Mrs. Wallace said they
killed a rattler in their barn
about three week* before.
The massasauga rattle­
snake is Michigan's only
venoumou* snake.
The rattle is not an indica­
tor of the snake's age u is
commonly believed. A new
segment is added with each
akin shedding, not with each
year of life. Rattlers do not
always sound a warning
prior to airiking, nor is it
necessary for them to coil to
inflict a bite. If handled or
accidentally stepped on.
they will simply twist the
head and bite.

Beta Growers Face Loss

Because of Wet Ground
By Victor Stooeu
It is reported that some of
the farmer* of this Wood­
land area who have been
raising green tiring bean*
for the canning factory,
stand to suffer a lot* be
cause the rain* have made
the ground *o soft the men
were unable to gel bean
picking machine* into the
fields.
Whether the beans will be
left to ripen, hoping the
company will buy them for
seed. or just what disposi
tion will be made of them
has not been decided at thia
time.

PRE8HNTB

One party we talked to
Monday had 52'/» Acres into
beans and they haven't been
able to touch them yet. This
is the main money crop on
the farm and with what it
has cost them for seed and to
hire a man to plant them, the
Io** i* terrific.
This ha* been a near
perfect year for beans and
the quality and quantity
have been really top*. One
farmer told us that his field
bore so heavily that it pm
duced *o much more per
•ere than the contract slip
ulaled, they left quite a
large section of the field
untouched and they said
they were having to do that
in other field*.
It would seem that this
would be an ideal lime for
folk* who like green bean*
and do not raise their own to
fill their jar* at a very
reasonable price. Our sym­
pathy goes out to the farm­
ers who are suffering such a
great los* The farmer*,
we’ve heard it said, are the
world's greatest gamblers,
they put so much money,
time and labor into their
field*, never sure that the
venture will pay.

day they crossed over to
Mackinac Island where they
joined their ton and brother,
Jeff, and Kirk Snook*, a
buddy In l*ak**ood High

had gone up earlier and
were ramping on the inland

the Seventh annual Mackin
ac Island Road Race. The

running for the past months
in preparation for thi* event.
There were 500 entered in
the race. Th* participants
ran the 1.99 miles around
the edge of the resort island.
Since no automobiles are
allowed on th* Island they
were not bothered by them
a* they would be running
around th* local area. The

this race were In th* 20 to 80
year range, however there
were girls in the line 0-10
years of age and at least on*

The Blessings

of Being

a Christian
By STAN CLANTON
MMater
Barry CetuMy Church uf Christ

The Bibta is not reluctant to speak of afl the great
blessings of being a Christian. Jesus and hts gospel
provide benefits that are not available In any other
system of salvation. Paul spoke quite estensivefy of
many of these blessings in the book of Romans. Look
at cxVy one chapter and you ! notice several benefits
of being "in Christ": no condemnation (81). fife and
peace (86). the mdweamg Spirit (89). heirs of God
•nd fsflow heirs with Christ (8:17), future glory with
Christ 18:17-18), and God's presence In our lives (831).
On end on we could go
The Bibie speaks ol the unhappiness ond regrets
of not being a chM of God. but never so for the
befiever. How many tmas do you hoar of someone on
hia death bed gathering h&gt;s family around to confess
that he has regretted Irving hie life as a Chretien?
As a Christian, one rs entitled to all the rights and
privileges God provides for his children. We ex­
perience victory over despair and hopelessness. That
victory is not feeble and half-hearted. Chnetians are
"more then conquerors"! (Romans 837)
A graduate student who was baptued into Christ
wrote. "I am growing and it's great. I have never
known mysetf like this He is truly in me. I have a
stronger will to refrain from temptations that I
encounter during the day. Life is better than ever
before It's groat to bo on the winning side and to
know that you are

The official beginning of

a "harvest mixin" on Sept. 27
amt a “penumbral eclipan”
on the same night arc among
astronomical highlights at
September, according to Un­
iversity of Michigan astron­
omer Haze) M. Ixnh.
The beginning of fall on
Sept, 22 is marked by “tbe
autumnal equinox, when the
*un in its apparent yearly
journey crosses the equator
on it* way south.” says Lush.
During the autumnal equi
iiox, "the day and night are
•aid to be equal,” according
to l&lt;o*h. But this is not
strictly true, she notes, be
cau«c. as a result of the
earth's atmosphere refract­
ing the sun's light, the day
and night will really be equal
on Sept. 26.
"Although on the 22nd,
the sun i» really above the
horizon for 12 hours it is
visible for 11 minute* long
er." note* Lash. “A* the
sunlight enters the atmos­
phere. it come* to a more
denuc region, and it* light la
bent or refracted, so that II
appear* lifted into view
making the sun visible.*'
This phenomenon occurs be
focr the sun rises above tbe
horizon and after it sets.

municipal government in the
November. 1979. election,
member* ot the city council
indicated al their regular
meeting Monday when they
unaimouily voted to "pur
sue" the recommendation*
submitted Dec. S. 1975. by
the Mayor'* Scicct Commit

Since receiving the recom
n.rndation*, aldermen have
discussed the suggestion for
a eily administrator or city
manager, and several have
visited other communitie*
having administrator*.
Also recommended was
the combining of the trea
Hirer's office with the clerk'*
office, and to make the office
an appointive one.
On a motion of Alderman
l-arry Kornstadt supported
by Alderman David Jasperse. the council voted lo
go forward with considering
Ihe suggestion*.
An ordinance mu*t be
drafted, adopted and ap

proved by the governor's
office before going to the
people for a vote.
City Atty. Richard Shaw
said it would be ap
propriate to start working
now. a* a job description for
an administrator, and other
factor* must be considered.
He said il may take six
months to get approval of
changes through the gover
nor's office.
Revamping ward boun­
dary line* may also be in­
cluded in the required char
ler amendments, and also
some wording in charter
passage*. Shaw said.
The Mayor's Select Com­
mittee recommended retain
ing the present mayor-coun
cil form of government.
Tbe Hasting* Elk*, who
ha* been leasing the cityowned building on North
Church for a lodge since May
&lt;&gt;f 1962, want to make im
provement* but alto want
some assurance of per­
manency. Alderman William
Cuaack. chairman of the

property committee, said a
new lease is to be drawn up
and asked for the council's
tentative approval of the re­
commendation*
Approval
was unanimous.
Cusack said plans were to
draft a 15 year lease at 1200
monthly rental, with the
rent provision to be open for
negotiation every five years.
Either parly could termin
ate the lease on two year*'
notice, but that the Elks
would have 10 years to
depreciate improvement*. If
they left the building before
depreciation wa* complete,
they would receive a pro­
rated rebate.
The Hasting* fish hatch­
ery park ha* a 545.000 grant
and the Bob King Park a
515.000 grant. Bid* were
asked for improving them,
and the low Nd for the fish

balance of 1206.927, and
1980 81. with a balance of

This Week’s Message
God s Eternal Purpose
By Stan Clanton. Minuter
Barry County Church ol Christ
I he t heme of the book of Ephesuns in the
New Testament is God's Eternal Purpose in
Christ In the fest chapter youl find such
■&gt;l&gt;rrwons as. chose us m hen before the
tourulation of the world" (1 :&lt;&gt;, "he purposed
m hen f 19). and "having been foreordained
accordmg to the purpose of han" (1 111. The
book is desianed to show us that Chmtianrty
is the result of on eternal and dr.me plan
The Gostxrl of Jesus Christ is of more than a
temporary or mere sociatogical significance
It was planned by God from the beginning
Dmi death ol Christ d»d not take God by
surprise It was designed by God before time
tiegun Christ is the "lamb slain from the
foundation of the worid" (Revelation 13:3).
Even at ius birth it wss announced that lw
would "save his people from their sins"
iMathvw 1:211. During hts earthly ministry.
Christ understood that part of his mission
was to give his life as a ransom for many
(Matthew 2O2BI. Il was by God's deternun
ate counsel and foreknowledge that Christ
would tie crucified (Acts 2:231. God's eternal
"Xiipose was to redeem man from sm
.hrough the death of his Son.
In addition, it must be noted that the
hurch was also m God s eternal plan

Ephesians 3:10 11 speeks of the wisdom of
God being made known through the church,
and this wav according to God's eternal
purpose The Old Testament had foretold of
this conung Messwrac kingdom. Isaiah 22-4
speaks of Jehovah's house bmng est abimhed
&lt;i the latter days Oanmi 2.44 forecasts God's
everlasting krngdom being established m the
days of the Roman empire. Thus when Jesus
launched h&gt;» earthly mwustry. be announced.
"The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of
God is at hand" I Mark 1:15). The chuich was
mdml established on the day of Pentecost
I Acts 21 The church was not a substitute or
an afterthought but H was an mtergrat part
of God's purpose.
God's eternal purpose did not in any way
alter man's free will. Man has always had
power of choice when it comes to choosing
or rejecting God. "Whosoever witt" may
come and take the water of life freely
(Revelation 22:17). Salvation is conditional
upon our acceptance of it. Men must trust
and obey Christ to be forgiven end to enjoy
the hope ol eternal life (Mark 16:16, II
Thessatoruans 1(7 9. I John 1:71.
Gori's eternal purpose indicates his con
earn about man s salvation God has a
wonderful plan for us’ Its consummation wd

Te the Editor:
Criticism has been voice
by the Banner that ou
opposition to the illegall
passed Housing Ordinanc
was on a philosophical basis
What other way is ther
to consider a proposed o
dinance of such great mag
nitude with such far reach
ing total rammiflrations?
To consider "phUoeoph
cally" would lw to conside
an item in Ils entire scope
considering the total ramml
fication* and long rang
results. That's what WE'VE
done. What in the world i
wrong with that?
Fur the newspaper t
level criticism on this basi
is total admission that thei
criticism is empty, unfound
ed and ignorant of the fact
presented.
When people, the genera
citizenry, are unable to hav
a voice in government, gov
ernment that passes illega
ordinances, it is high tim
that pc-plc oppose. and op
pose vehemently.
Yes. Mr. Publisher, we
opposed philosophically, and
plan to continue our action.

strurtton of low cost hous
ing for the elderly.

zen housing the only pur­
pose of the Housing Commis

Lakewood Ht mecoming
By THOMAS KRAWCZAK
The Coopersville Broncos
galloped over Ijikewood
Friday night. 50 8. in the
homecoming contest for the
Vikings.
Playing before a large and
very wet crowd the Vikings
were attempting to go three
and 0 in the Tri River
conference; but the Broncos
were not to be denied.
The rainy weather was a
definite disadvantage for
lakewood which thrives on
the passing attack lead by
Mike Colegrove.
In the first half of play the
Vikings were shutout as
Coopersville took advantage
of two lakewood mistakes
and engineered a drive ot 90
yards to lead 22 to nothing
at half time.
lakewood fumbled the
ball on their own 20 with
1:50 left in the first quar­
ter. The Broncos took it
right to pay dirt on a 6 yard
run by Ed Cain and added
the two point conversion on
a two yard carry by Quarter­
back Art Klien.
Coopersville scored again f
with 2:04 left in the first half
on a 4 yard run by Dave
McKnight and a two point
conversion pass from Klien
to Joo Meerman capping a
90 yard drive.
Lakewood got the ball
back on the ensuing kickoff
but lost it right back to
Coopersville on an intercep­
tion. The Broncos took over
on the lakewood 40 yard
line and wasted no time in
scoring. The other Bronco
quarterback, Ken Bush,
pitched the ball to Art Klien
on a reverse ppy that was
good 40 yards and a score.
Dave McKnight failed in his
attempt to pick up the two
point conversion. Time ran
out in the first half on the
scoring play by Klien.
The lakewood crowd was
treated to half time activi­

ties which included the par
ade of floats and the intro­
duction of the homecoming
queen and court. Selected
homecoming queen al Lake­
wood was 17-year-old Lisa
Spetoskey. daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Robert Spetoskey
of Clarksville. Usa was es­
corted by Randy Weishans.
To begin the second half of
play the Lakewood Vikings
rame to life putting together
three first downs in a good
drive the saw Colegrove go
to the air leading the Vlkes
to a score on a 2 yard
scamper by Dale Porter.
Colegrovr found end Dave
Kauffman in the end zone for
a two point conversion to
cap Lakewoods scoring fnr
the night at 8.
The Broncos, however,
went on to score 28 points in

the half for the., second 50
point performance of the
season. Coopersville scored
on run* by Ed Cain. 53
yards; Dave McKnight. 70
and 15 yards. Third siring
Quarterback Terry Bush
ramed 1 yard to score the
final touchdown with 3:35
left in Ihe game. The Bron
cos made two out of four two
point conversion attempts in
the half to give Coopersville
50 points on the night.
Lakewood is now 2 and 2
overall and 2 and I in the
conference. The Broncos im­
proved to 2 and 1 in the
Tri River with the impres­
sive win.

“We didn't have it w hen it
counted." Coach Bill Karpin
ski said after his Hasting*
High Saxons lost a 14-7 Twin
Valley Conference game at
Sturgis Friday night.
The Saxons had the ball a
foot from the goal just
before the first half ended,
and couldn't get it across. In
the closing moments of the
bruising encounter they
reached the II with two

downs
remaining
and
couldn’t score.
“We've had trouble inside
the 10 all season long."
Coach Karpinski said, al
ready planning on working
on a goal line offense.
Coach Harley Pierre said
his Trojans played their best
game of the year, and the
Hastings gridder* couldn't
agree more. After being cm
harassed by Harper Creek

Officer Willison reports
that the recent ram* may
have brought back some of

the week before. Quarter­
back Rob Sisson moved his
team when it counted with
David Franks doing much of
the ground work grinding
out 158 net yards in 25 car­
ries. Diminutive Scott Hagadorn carried 13 times for 30
yards and Curt Rood a dozen
Halfback Dan King and
Quarterback Rick VanEngen each netted 55 yards on

Dave Allerding smashed for

Sturgis struck first, scor­
ing on their second posses­
sion after Max Keller's punt
went out of bounds on the
Saxon 41. It took only four
plays with Franks driving
over from the nine. Jim
Lincoln's kick made it 7-0
with 5:33 left in the first
canto.
Hasting* finally got a
drive underway in their last
possession of the first half,
moving the ball from their
own 46 highlighted by

Exchange Student Bennie

Ohman kicked the extra
point soccer style and the
score was tied at 7-7 with

Sturgis then moved the
ball, seemingly at will. Start­
ing on their own 38. it took
nine plays for the Trojans to
Kback out in front with
rwin Gentile going the
final yard. A slick pass from
Sisson to Mike Snyder for
nine yards pul the ball on
that one yard line.
In the final period the
Trojans got down to the
Hastings 15 where the
Saxons took over the ball on
downs on a great defensive
effort.
Hastings had two more
opportunities, but couldn't
make them pay off.
The final drive was aided
by two pass interference
calls against Sturgis in a
game that had been almost
free of penalties. Two flags
were thrown early and both
penalties were refused, one
by Hastings and one by
Sturgis. Hastings on that
fiml effort drew a five

pass on a “fiea-picker" play.

THE HOUSING COMMISSION

What Have We Created?
Bv HUGH FULLERTON
I First of a Series]
A county &lt;&gt;r municipal housing nwimu
*•&gt;«. ■*. indirectly. a creation of the Stale of
Michigan.
Ari IM. originally passed by ibe legivla
lure in 193.1 and effective in IKM. is the
enabling art" which authorizes counties,
cities, villages and township* to create
housing commission, and outlines their
responsibilities and powers.
Any housing commission in Michigan
must operate within the framework art
forth in the law. which haa been amended
several times. The most recent changes
were made tn 1969.
The act is rather lengthy 19'i page*
and cover* a great deal of ground, l-arge
section* of it are concerned with how a
housing commission can borrow monev.
how it must he repaid, how bond* and loan*
are secured, etc.
The art is quite specific a* to how the
bousing commission must lie constituted
and appointed, and the extent and limit* of
its powers.
A housing commission for a county,
village or eity under 1 million population

must have five member*, which are
appointed by the chief executive officer I in
the ease of a county, the chairman of the
commissioners). Members normally serve
for 5-year terms, but on a new board, the
term* vary from one to five year* so that
they will be staggered. Members receive no
WA housing mn.mi*«ioa ha*, under the
state law. the following power and duties:
To determine the need for "sanitary
housing conditions" for low income families
and the need to eliminate housing condi­
tions "detrimental to the public peace,
health, safety, moral* and-or welfare."
To buy. lease, transfer any property
acquired: to own and improve property: to
design, construct and or repair its project*.
To control and supervise park* and
playgrounds in the project*.
To establish rents, but the commission
is required to make it* projects self sup­
porting. including operation, finance charg­
es and taxes.
■ To rent only to tenanl* unable to afford
more expensive housing.
■To call on other department* for
assistance a* needed, but they must be

reimbursed.
To exercise other power* a* established
by the governing body (eity council or
county commissioner*).
In another section, the law speak*
directly to the question of "eminent
domain" the power of government to
appropriate privately-owned property, with
proper payment.
The slate law says specifically that the
housing rummission does not have the
power to eminent domain. However, the
housing commission may recommend to its
governing body that property be acquired
under the power of eminent domain, to be
used for public housing purpose*.
A county, city or township ha* aiway*
had the power of eminent domain, of course.
Any time that it deems necessary- it can
force anyone to sei), but it may have to
prove to a court that the need for the
property is legitimate, and that the price is
fair.
What the state law does is declare that
public housing is, indeed, a public purpose
and therefore a legal reason to purchase
property by eminent domain.
The law make* it dear that the housing

County Sweetens Coffers
With Delinquent Taxes
City, village, township,

being sweetened this week
as check* f«»r all 1975 and
1976 real property taxes,
unpaid as &lt;d July 1.1977. are
tiring revets rd from Barry
County Treasurer Elsie Fur
row.
The County Hoard of Corn
missioner* voted last July
12, to burrow money to pay­
off these taxes by selling
General Obligation Bonds.
Hid* were accepted Sept.
8. Hasting* City Bank pur
chased bonds for the 1975
taxes offering interest of
3.4192% .m 5300.000.
Michigan National Bank
Centra) of Grand Rapid*
purchased the bonds for
1976 taxes, offering 3.7913%
interest on 5980.000.
The County Treasurer*
office will continue to collect
dclinquet taxes the same a*
in the past but. instead of
disbursing lhe collection to
the various unit*, it will lie
deposited in special accounts
to repay the bonds. The 1975
tax bond* will be paid in full
in 1979 and 1976 tax bunds in
1980.
Mr*. Furrow said many
Michigan counties have gone
Io this system
called a
Delinquent Tax Revolving
Fund. Thi* procedure en­

able* such taxing unit tu
have the entire tax levy al
once, allowing them to bud­
get mon- efficiently.
The t ax dollar* can also be
invested by the heal unit*,
earning more dollar* than
could be realized from the
former method.

Give* Lakewood Win
Ry THOMAS KHAW CZAR
For 4N minutes at Fre
mont Friday night the luike
wood Vikings and the Fre
mont Packers list tied to a
scoreless tie.
When each team had com
pletcd their overtime po»
sessions the scoreboard read
l.akewo&gt;&gt;d 3. Fremont 0.
After the scoreless regula
lion time the officials held a
coin loss which was won by
lhe Packers who elected to
let l^kewiaid have thr foot
ball and lhe first erack at
get ting the ball Io pay dirt in
four downs.
On the first play from the
10 Lakewisid Quarterback
Mike Colegrove handed off
to Dan May s who ran off left
tackle for three yards. On
second down Colcgrove
pitched thr ball out to Mike
Manshum who was coming
in motion from lhe slot. Th**
Packer tjcfrnsc came up
with a big play dropping
Manshum for a seven yard
loss on the carry. On third
down Mike Colegmve tried
to go foe six aa he lofted a
pavs deep in thr end zone
intruded for wide receiver
Gary Klomp which was just
over his fingertips incom
plrte.
Fourth down saw the Vik
ings bring on their field goal
unit which ia 'rd by Swr
dish exchange student
Hakon FUipson and set up
for a 30 yard attempt. A
penally of five yards against
Fremont made it a 25 yard
kick. Mike Colegrove did lhe
holding and Filipson sent the
pigskin end over end
through the uprights for the
winning margin
After thr Ukewood field
goal. Fremont still had four
shots from the 10 remaining.
On the very first overtime
play by thr Packers before a
large homecoming crowd.
Brun Maynard took a hand
off from Quarterback Dan
Burk and was stopped cold
when he attempted to gain
yardage ovrr the right side
of the Viking defensive line.
Slopped but not down. May
nard tried to pitch the hall
back to Burk but it went
bouncing away from the
Pack and into the wailing
arms of thr swarming Ijikc
wood defenders Io seal the
victory.
Il was a tough ball game
for Fremont to lose as they
moved the football well all

night l**ng between the 30
yard line but could not put
points on the hoard.
(In thr other hand. I-ike
wood's offense was having a
tough night getting only
three first downs all night
l*ng compared to eight for
the Packers Mike Colegrove
was two out of nine in
passing for the game while
Fremont's Dan Burk hit on
six out ofd 13 aerials, sev
rral for key first downs.
Lakewiaid** defense was
tough, forcing two fumbles
and Mike Manshum had two
interceptions. Two of Cole
grove’s passes were stolen.
&gt;&gt;nc by Scott Oslicn and a
scond by Randy Tanis.
With ihe win the Vikings
evened their over all mark
at 3 3. Fremont fell to 2 4
and 23 in the Tri River.
Lakewood is now 32 in ron
ferrnee plus and they hang
&gt;&gt;n to a shm chance of
catching Cedar Springs 4 1

and now on some streets there are many of

No matte, who wme. a lithe competition in
politics • a healthy thmg That means that
lor the fxst time m many years, the voters
have a choice for mayor, and whoever gets
the job is iikety to be just a b&gt;t more
responsive tc public opinion during the newt
term
The sad ttvng is that there are so few
interested m being mayor of Hastings What
should be an honor has become a chore, ar.d
few are wilting to undertake it I don't think
it's because of a lack of public spirited people
m town Goodness knows that hundreds of
Hastings citizens are mvohed m other
voluntary fot» for the good of the commu­
nity.
Perhafis we have made local government
so complicated what with state and federal
rules, negotiations with labor unons tight
financier etuatons that not many are wdhng
to fight It Or perhaps we too often forget to
give our public officials a pat on the back for
lhe soilless service, to let them know we do
appreciate it.
To be sure, there s a lot of hasale m the
job The pubfic office-holder always has to
deal with his critics, try to measure the will of
the majority, and make decisions on what is
best for the most pvopie But this is nothing
new Jefferson compiamed about the pubic
entoem when he was n office
But m addition to needing a thick dun. it
seems take pubic officials also need a lot
more patience than they used to And m
particular, the job of mayor of Hastings also

requires a lot Of ime to do right, and
relatively few are willing to give that time tn
□ddriion to fulltime jobs
So let's not get too heated over the issues
and personalities n tfM campaign Before we
cast our baBots let s say "thanks ' to both

That s what I got last Thursday m the form
of a gift coffee mug from Olivet College As
you pick it up I with the handle towards you I
the college emblem is on the left SMte Which
means I was told that they prefer that you
t»mk with your left hand, so that others
around you will see what's on the mug?
It was a token for what to mo was a very
pleasant eipenence Your Muser had the
privilege of speaking to two joumaHm
classes at Okvet One was a begmnng dess,
and many of the students do not aspect to
make their careers in the news media The
other was an advanced seminar mostly of
students who are serious about the pro­
lesson
I was pleasantly surprised both by the
attentrvenesa of the students and the
thought provoking questions they asked In
these days when the ethics of both pubic
official* and the news media are under
scruteiy they were very concerned about
how the press can operate ethcaBy It
doesn t hurt for « professional, who is
dealing with these problems almost dotty, to
plunge into a group whch is asking some of
the tough questions
Anyway these kids have the right atti

To the Editor.
In response to Ms. Gray's
letter published October 11.
I would like to respond that
it was not my inleotioo to
bring into this campaign any
"smutty polities". I would
suggest that Ms. Gray is the
acknowledged expert in that
area.
As for the use al the
Anti Recessionary money
thr Federal government
gave to the city, the Act
provided lhe money to cities
with high unemployment.
The intent of the act was to
provide money to create
jobs.
A couple of months ago,
the mayor first proponed to
the Council that about
S27.000.00 of thia money be
used to offset lhe projected
deficit in lhe police departmrnt. In hindsight. I feel we
should have used some of
the MOO.00000 &lt;1 unappro­
priated suprius the city haa.
to rover this deficit in lhe
mayors budget.
Next, lhe mayor wanted
to buy polire cars with more
of the Ami Recessionary
Funds. It was asked of the
Cily Attorney to advise lhe
Council and if we could and
should use the money for
this purpose. He slated that
he frit this was NOT WITH
IN THE INTENT OF THE
ACT.
After some discussion, it
was derided to hire some
irmp»rary help with the
thought that we would hire a
permanent person to look
after lhe Tyden Park silua
lion. About 110,000 was
used, nr a lit I Iw over 15% of
the total m&gt;*ney given to the
cily was actually used as
intended under the act.

To the Editor:
At last Tuesday's county
bard meeting an event
•■ccured that I believe de­
serves public recognition.
After a day of listening to
defeated commissioner can
didate bereate the board for
its position regarding the
Housing Commission it was
refreshing to have Norman
Crasc, supervisor of Johns
town Township, put it all in
perspective when he got to
his feet aad said he wished
to change his position from
Sept. 27 meeting of the
supervisors association
when he half heartedly went
along with the rest in voting
f-.r a referendum and also
withdrawal from South Cen

Mr. Crane slated that he
saw no need for a referen­
dum or withdrawing from
Region 111.
It lakes great courage to
get up in public and admit
you are »n-ng Mr Crase
had that courage aid proved
himself lhe biggest man k
the room.
That kind of courage is
what haa made this country
great and deserves public
r. .mmendation. The people
of Johnstown should be

Gilmer Praises Barry’s Housing

Plan for Senior Citizens
Endorsement and support
(&lt;&gt;r the new Harry County
Housing Commission ha*
been given hy Stale Repre
tentative Donald Gilmer in a
letter written to Russell
Bender. chairman of the
Harry County Hoard of Com
missioncr*
Representative Gilmer, in
his letter, said he agrees
wholeheartedly that Harry
County should participate
with the federal government
tn providing housing for
senior eitirens, anil dis­
counts the possibility that
the ordinance could be a
great threat to the rights of
individuals.
Hepresr nt alive Gilmer al­
so suggests that eitirens
become more "involved and
concerned with what their
local unit* of government
are doing." slating that the
"duties of etlirenship are
more than just simply voting
every two years."
The letter follow*:
Dear Raos:
On July 12.1977 the Harry
County Hoard of Commit
•loner* pavsed Ordinance
77 6 which created the Barry
County Housing Commis
•ion. Ever since that time
there has bcm a consider
able amount of public debate
as to the advisability of the
county having passed such
an ordinance.
I have followed the public
comment in the media, by
letter and phone calls, and
have decided that the con
tniveray centers around essen'tally two issues;
First. should Barry Coun­
ty participate in an endeavor
that would attempt to bring
into Harry County federal
funds in this case, for the
purpose of building subsidiz
ed senior citizen housing?
Secondly. I perceive an
issue that is basically one of
individual and private pro
perty rights the question
being whether or not the
Housing Commission would
have the right Io. in any
way. infnnge upon the pri
vate domiciles of the citizens
of Barry County in the name
of the Harry County Hous
ing Commission and their
powers to "eliminate hous­
ing conditions which are
detrimental to the public
peace, health, safety, morals
or welfare" as they might
exist in Harry County.
To the first point I would
have to agree wholehartcdly
that Barry County rightly
should be participating with
the federal government in
an attempt to provide ade­
quate housing for senior
citizens. Senior citizens of
Barry County have worked
all their fives and they are
the forebearvn of the tradi­
tion that has made this
country strung. Now. in
their retirement years, be
cause of conditions beyond
their control sueh as high
taxes and rampant inflation,
they are unable to provide
adequate, safe and sanitary
accommodations for them­
selves in which to enjoy
their remaining years. They
certainly deserve the oppor
(unity to live better (han
they are living now. To this
point I would add that I do
not pcreeive any body oppos
ing the right of senior citi­
zens l« having access to this
type of housing.
The second point of con
troversy 1 mention is the
issue which has received the
greatest amount of public
debate. I instructed our
Legislative Legal Counsel to
research the statute, being
Public Act 18 of 1933 as
amended by Public Act 327
of 1989. In the legal opinion I
received back from Counsel

there is not one documented
legal case whereby a hous­
ing commission created by
such an ordinance would
have the power* to invade
the privacy of the home* of
individuals in Barry County
in order to determine
whether or not they were
detrimental to the public
peace, health, safety, morals
or welfare." The Housing
Commission, in order to
enforce such powers, would
have to have the power of
condemnation. In Section
125.660 the commission's
authority in this regard is
limited to recommending to
the governing body the in
slilution and prosecution of
proceeding* under the pow
rr of eminent domain in
accordance with the laws of
this state and'or the pro
visions of local charter rela­
tive to condemnation
Therefore, it is obvious
the commission's powers
would be strictly advisory,
and in this rase the county
hoard of commissioners
would retain total respon
•iNlily and authority for
instituting any condemna
tion preceding*. In this re­
gard, 1 would ask anyone if
they can remember when
the County of Harry has
instituted condemnation
proceedings to eliminate un
acceptable housing condi­
tions
The power ^?veu Io the
county board of commission
er* is not new and has
existed for many years.
These powers already do
exist in fire, health and
sanitation statutes and or­
dinances. and from my ex­
perience. they have not hern
used by public officials for
any arbitrary purpose*. I
can understand by simply
reading the ordinance that
wa* passer! by the Barry
County Board of Commis
•loners that the powers of
the Housing Commission
could easily be misconst ru
rd. but upon close examina­
tion of the statutes upon
which the ordinance was
passed, the issue becomes
much more clear and much
less of a threat to the rights
of the individual.
A third issue that I might
briefly mention is that of a
public referendum on the
creation &lt;4 the Housing
Commission. Section 125 653
of Michigan Compiled Law*
clearly slates that the act
shall not go into effect until
15 days after it has been
published in a newspaper of
general circulation and post
cd In three public places. Il
also stales that there shall
be a petition circulated of
not less than 3% of the
number of voters registered
in the last county election.
This part of the statute is
very clear and it is my
opinion that the County
Board of Commissioners has
not violated public law by
enacting such an ordinance.
What does become apparent
is that the puhlic should
become much more involved
and concerned with what
their local units of govern
ment are doing and that the
best way to become a more
informed citizen is to follow
closely t he proceedings of. in
this case, the County Board
of Commissioners. The
duties of citizenship are
more than just simply voting
every two years.
I. therefore, want to offer
my strongest endorsement
and support for the Barry
County Housing Commission
and wish them well in their
endeavors to bring good and
decent housing to the senior
citizens of Barry County
who so richly deserve a

�[Voice of the People]
T»tteK4tar
I want to join others In
prai*ing the Barry County
Housing CoounitMoa and its
plant fur senior citizen hou*
ing in Barry County. I also
think the County Board of
Commissioners and County
Planning Board deserve
equal praise for recognizing
a long overdue need and
taking steps necessary to
correct
lhe
situation.
Hoorah fir you all!
The lack of low-cost hout
tng (or older persona on a
limited income was specifi
rally illustrated fir me re­
cently when 1 learned uf a
lady in this area who is past
retirement age. yet con
tinues to work in order to
keep her home. She has no
relatives in the stats to help
her. Her home is literally
falling down around her
because she cannot pay for
repairs to heating, plumb
ing. electricity, routing, etc.
Her income can do no more
than pay utilities and cover
basic expenses. Her only
hope is from the bene­
volence of strangers, and
these people are few. Cer­
tainly this lady need* some
kind of low-cost housing and
her condition is not unique.
In a recent fetter to the
Editor by a Housing Com
mission opponent lhe writer
quoted the Housing Ordin
ance. emphasizing that pri­
vate groups can build lowcist housing, that a County
Housing Commission is un­
necessary. Good! Great! But
where are these private
groups? Why haven't they
built any low-cost housing?
Should senior citizens of
Barry County continue to
wait until one of tbe pri
vale building companies
comes forward? Of course
not. they've wailed long
enough. Beside*. Barry
County ha* as much right to
receive federal funds as
Wayne County or Kent
County. Barry County resi­
dent* pay federal taxes; that
shouldn't be a one-way pro­
cess politicians tell me that
while Michigan is one of lhe
largest contributors of the
federal tax base. Michigan I*
•19th in receiving federal
funds! Maybe some of that
can be credited to the (act
that Michigan resident* do
not speak up loud enough or
often enough fnr their »hare
of that "budget pie."
Finally. I am distressed by
the attack* leveled al Cum
missioner T. Edward Me
Pharlin by the “Concerned
Citizen* " In my opinion no
one work* harder foe Barry
County than Ed McPharlin.
He give* unsparingly of hi*
time to hi* duties foe the
County, to the many com
mittces to which he is ap
pointed, and to other acti
vitie* around lhe County. If
those “Concerned Citizen*"
knew anything about Coun­
ty government, they would
recognize that most of the
work is done in committee,
and each County Commis
skmer serves on several
committee*. If Ed seem* to
In- involved In more com
mine* than other*, perhaps
it is because the person who
appointed him to these knew
he was responsible and
would do lhe work.
Th. beautification of lhe
courthouse lawq has been
Ed's personal project; he
planted the young trees,
removed the dead tree*, and
planted lhe flowers, with no
charge to the county. (He
has been reimbursed for
some of hi* expense* after
the fact, but the County
could never have afforded
this work done by a pro
fesMonal agent). Ye*. Ed
McPharlin is my friend and
I'm proud of that and have to
join his other fnend* in
decrying the unwarranted
attack* on him.
In conclusion. I support
the Barry County Housing
Commission and I support
Commissioner Ed McPhar
lin.
Sincerely.

An ode to the Saiats t&gt;(
Hallow ten
Twa* the eve of all Saints
hall&gt;&gt;w and t be forresls crept
with strange thing* under
the moon's swift glow.
The air gave a mystery of
sj&gt;--k». goblin*, eerie crea
lure*, the hoot of the owl
and witches on the prowl.
Folk* just locked their
doors and bolted their
blind*, turned down the
candle glow and fasten the
gale.

And sal down befc&gt;re the
flickering fires with little or
n« thought* towards a long
silent pondm-us watt.
When suddenly al the
stroke of midnight, the
wolves howl ripped thru the
air that would raise any

man'* hair.
Now this was not uncom
m-n &gt;.n all Saini* Eve in the
village of Hasting* a* hi*
lory past It'll*.
For ti« thi* time of year
when the had mu»i pay for
their evil they do and the
•core is added for the good
they don't.
And thr will of men's
mindsan-beneath the good*
of heart* that won't.
Tis the time when foul
word* and unkind thought*
must be paid al the price
bargained al the round
■ able* rap.
Tis said that tbe soul
breathes I hr very nearness
of the art* to thr one ma
milting said deed* by piece
mg their mind* with the
arrow of truth, and thr
verities cheek the records
i herein.
Each knight of the round
table must drive hi* horse
thru the w&lt;«ds an thr m&lt;»&gt;n
wane* its light as thr fire of
the pumpkin engulf* hi*
head. may his wiekrd dei-d»
hr forever dead. May the
truth survive and remain to
the villagers below. and the
m-&gt;rnful howl of the weir
wolves he forever more.
May the truth of honrsi
light hr hold and bright and
with thr coming dawn, a
h-using commission will hr
horn to ride as Robinhood
thru the forrrsts. to protect
ihr downtrodden and f»&gt;r
and not to he used as a
dictator's pawn.

To the Editor:
I know this m&gt; fault law is
a screwed up nutter. Il is
not fair to the person who
isn't at fault.
I say this no fault insur
ance is where Ihr insurance
companies are getting rich
because they don't have to
pay for other person’s car.
I wish that there was a
law against no fault becauMsomeonr has to hr at fault
not ev.ryonr is innocent
who is involved in an acci
dent. .Someone has to be at
fault.

Ta tbe Editor:
While it is true that Ihr
Michigan Stale Animal, thr
wolverine, was adopted at
Fort Miehilimackmac. the
detail* of lhe adoption are
more interesting than Mr.
Youngs reveal* in his
column of October 19th.
An Englishman at the fort
overheard a pair of Indian*
discussing fur prices, and
several times in the con
vrrnation ihr British were
referred to as wolverine*.
Tbe mystified Englishman
asked a local Indian what thr
characteristics of lhe wol­
verine were. Thi- Indian,
fully aware of the reference
and its meaning, described
I hr wolverine as very smart.
very strong, and very brave
The Englishman was so im
pressed with thi* descrip
lion that hr persuaded ihr
fort t&lt;&gt; adopt the wolverine
a* its symbol, and the *ym
bol was later adopted by thr
state.
What thr eocisuferaie local
Indian did not mention was
that the wolverine was thr
m»»t notorious trap robber
in all of Canada.

are safe in comparison to
snowmobiles and traffic.
Folks, support your Com­

year a specific issue is
chosen to emphasise cor­
porate action for justice and
peace.
The lheme for this year’s
World Community Day.
"Heart Change - Global
Change." focuses on reach­
ing out with changed hearts
to the unfree people
throughout the community,
throughout lhe nation,
throughout the world by
striving for unity and world
peace.
World Community Day is
more than just one day of
special emphasis for Church
Women United. Through a
series of Bible Study ses­
sions and workshops, wo­
men in local communities
will concentrate on reaching
some consesnsus on the
meaning of justice. They will
deal with such issues as
unfair housing practices, un­
equal educational opportu­
nities, voter registration,
employment discrimination
and cutbacks in needed ser­
vices such as child care for
working mothers. In the con­
text of international con­
cerns. they will study is­
sues of inequity such as sex
discrimination, exploitation
of cheap labor, population
control and world hunger.
The program will lx- led
hy .Mrs. Glenn &lt;Barbara)
Thornburgh of the local
churrh with the help of
many from the congrega
lion.
Tbe offerings on both
World Community Day and
World Day of I’rayer. to­
gether with the Gift Certi­
ficates. support the ongoing
work of Intercontinental
Mission, the channel for
Church Women United to
foster global change through
funding of self help and de­
velopment programs.
Grants are made to meet
the needs of people in six
continents in the following
areas: spiritual growth, com­
munity and family service,
socio-economic
develop
ment, edura ion, health pro
grams, human rights, jus­
tice. peace building, wo
men's concerns, and hunger
in the United Slates and
globally. In addition, annual
grants have enabled nine
women's Christian colleges
in Asia to pioneer in educa
linn for women, helping
them to develop their full
potential and prepare them
for national and internation­
al responsibilities.
Throughout lhe year, but
especially on World Com­
munity Day. church women
purchase Gift Certificates to
respond with material aid to
human beings who are in
need of immediate relief
from the ravages of war.

Church Women United in
Barry County will celebrate
World Community [Jay on
Friday. Nov. 4. at 9 a.m. at
the Quimby United Metho­
dist Church located between
Hastings and Nashville on
M-79.
The origin of World Com­
munity Day can be traced to
the week of Pearl Harbor
when lhe constituting con­
vention of the United Coun­
cil of Churrh Women met in
Atlantic City. "As lhe na­
tions were flying apart, the
women were coming to­
gether." said Amy Wekher
who became the first presi­
dent of lhe interdenomina­
tional Council which was lhe
forerunner of Church Wo­
men United.
One of the first acts of this
newly formed Council was to
inaugurate a day of peace in
1942. The next year this
observance became known
as World Community Day
and was concerned with the
price nf an enduring peace.
Every year since then,
World Community Day has
been celebrated by Church
Women United on the first
Friday in November. Each

Millage Renewal Vote

For Barry’s Senior Citizens

Electors in the Hastings
Area School District will be
asked to vote on renewal of
the 18.51 special millage
operating tax on Monday.
March 13, the Board of
Education members decided
at th&lt;-:r meeting Tuesday
night. Nov. 8. held in tbe
Junior High School study
hall.
The length of lime the
electors will be asked to vote
the special millage is to be
decided at a future meeting,
but Superintendent of
Schools Richard J. Guenther
explained that budget pro
jeetions indicate that the
dial riel can operate with thr
same millage for three more
school fiscal years.
Supl. Guenther rrcom
mended the March election
date as one that should come
after the Barry County
Board of Commissioners
have decided on whether to
continue to pay government
al units for delinquent taxes,
a sum which meant about
1231.000 to the Hastings
district this year.
Supt. Guenther said the
March election waa being
recommended after cnnaid
crable consultation with
members of the Committee
of 33 composed of interested
individuals in all seclions of

the district, and also after
talks with many other peo­
ple.
They ruled out January as
coming too close to the
holidays and holiday billaand February. March, too.
would provide time for fol­
low up elections should tbe
voters turn down the re
newal proposal.
Superintendent Guenther
said that the district has
been operating with the
same special millage for the
past eight yean, something
unusual for school districts.
In projecting school coats.
Supl. Guenther said opcral
ing budgets would continue
to show rash balances for
three yean: 1979. 5268.455;
1980. 1206.927. and 1981.
1100.722. The year 1982
would ahow a deficit of
$65,0841 However, should
the Board of Commissioners
continue their delinquent
tax pickup program, tbe
same millage might be sufficent for a fourth, and
possibly a fifth year.
Estimated expenditures
for 1978 79 are S6.023.882;
for 197980 they are
MJ68J14. and foe 198081
the estimate is 16.678.413.
Supl. Guenther announe
ed that Herbert Moyer and
his HHS Choir would pre

sent “Sound of Music" as
this year's Hastings High
operetta.
Robert Miller, sdministn
live assistant for non-in
st ruction. reported that the
two capacitors installed at
the high school al a cost of
53.400 stablixie tbe flow of
electricy. had saved the
school about 11 JOO in one
month. Miller explained that
the district received a credit
of $73.68 on the Hrst bill,
whereas a year ago the bill
cost the district an addition
al S1U227. The same savings
won't occur each month, hut
the district will save when
school is not in session, hr
explained.
A citizen at the meeting
asked whether shears could
be supplied for left handed
students, and also how it
was determined which
should be required subjects.
Junior High Principal
Kenneth Robbr explained
that required subjects were
determined after a long
period of time, and In con
•ultation with teachers and
administrators, and what
backgrounds would be re­
quired. N«m Richardson of
Southeastern said he sym
pathized with the left hand
ed students, but once he
learned to use right handed

shears, he couldn't go back
to the left handed ones.
Dennis Storrs reported
that 37 seniors have signed
up foe the trip to Washing­
ton. D.C.. which will prob­
ably be made by bus during
exam week. The coat will be
about 5200 a student, de­
pending on final number
making the trip. One senior
earned enough in the maga
sine sale to pay for much of
his expenses.
Assistant Principal Al
Franrik reported that home­
coming activities were high­
ly successful, and brought
participation from many stu­
dents,
Southeastern Principal
Dave Styf reported that the
6th grade camping sessions
were highly successful. He
thanked the many volun­
teers for their assistance,
and also lhe school’s Food
Service which prepares the
meals served al the camp.
Fred lx&gt;we volunteered that
one accomplishment was
getting all lhe sleep walkers
■■n bottom bunks.

The Lloyds Appraisal
Company of Chicago placed
lhe replacement property of

ly al $23,433,834, The net
sound value is 518,628,360
and 80 percent insurable
value is 514.880,000.
The high school, which
cost about 56.000.000. would
coat $9,918,541,000 if it had
to be replaced today.

Three programs to assist
senior citizens in their
health and safety are about
to begin in Barry County,
under lhe sponsorship of the
Barry County Commission
on Aging.
All three programs will be
carried out through a senes
of home visits to senior
citizens around the munty.
by a staff member and
volunteers of the COA.
The first objective of the
home visits will be to im
plement the “Vial &lt;&gt;f Life"
program. under which vital
information &lt;&gt;n each senior
citizen would be placed in
the home where police or
emergency wickers can find
it quickly.
Under the program, a
small plastic vial containing
the information would be
placed in each person's
refrigerator, taped under
lhe upper right hand shelf,
information to be placed in
the vial would include such
things as residents' names,
address, family doctor,
medicare, medicaid and hm
pitalization policy numbers,
name, address and phone
number of a person to con
tact in an emergency, and
special information on thr
residents' health status.
Each senior citizen will
also be given a copy of the
information to be kept in a
purse or wallet, so it would
be with him or her in ease of

emergency aw ay from home.
The second purpise of the
home visits will he to help
the senior citizens mark im­
portant or valuable pieces of
personal property with an
engraved identification num
her. Such things as TV sets,
tools and appliances can be
marked, so they are m*ire
readily rrcovrrvd in case of
theft.
This is part of “Operation
Identification." which is be
ing run with the assistance
&lt;d the Michigan Stale Po­
lice and the Barry County
Sheriff* Department.
The home visitors will
bring the engraving tool
with them to mark thr
art kies. A driver's license or
other identifying number
will be used.
After Operation Identifi
ration i* carried out in each
senior citizen's household,
thr home will be marked
with a sign warning poten­
tial Ihii'vvs that the proper
ty has brrn marked.
The final job of the home
visitors will Im* lu inspect
each home for security, to be
sure that door locks, window
closure* and the like are
adequate to discourage pos
«iblr entry into the nornc.
There will be assistance
available to help senior etti
ren» make their homes more
secure.
Eloia* Wolf, executive di
rector of the Commission on

Aging. &lt;aid she expects to

TwtteEdMr:
I havr bren rrsdmg th*
letter* b&gt;&gt;th pn&gt; and eon
about the Hcuung Projeet
f&lt;&gt;r Senior Gtizen* in Barry
County ard would ju»t like
to add my two bit* about the
■ubjeet and about lhe man
who ha* been behind it.
First: It certainly would
he much cheaper for me a*
well a* more secure to be
able to live in a h.mwng
project of this sort, and I
have every reason Io believe
more eny.yablc and more
permanent becau«e 1 could
doubile** stay nn my own
under ordinary cirrumslan
re* much longer than in a
regular privately owned
apartment »uch as I have
now. and *» manage to stay
out of the Medical Care
Facflitj which i* needed for
critical patient* who need
nursing care.
Second: I havr always
found Ed McPharlin a most
kind, considerate, under­
standing and thoughtful offi
rial who has gone far out of
hi* sray to help me. Hr ha*
certainly gone far out of hi*
way. al hi* own expense to
investigate what similar
housing project* have done
for other counlie* and what
it can do for our county.
Al the rate at which the
number of senior citizen* 1*
increasing in Barry County
some project of this type
would *.«m have to be
undertaken by our county
with total expense falling
upon our taxpayer*, sn why
ikh accept the money that
has already been provided
by our government rather
l han passing this grant on to
w.me o*her county and a
little later having to foot it
all ourselves?
Every far sighted, con
snentious official alwray* re
reive* a lot of adverse
criticism and is the target
f.&lt; mud slinging fn»m those
who arr short sighted and
uninformed, but I for one am
truly grateful for such a
public spirited, dedicated
and far sighted Commission
er on the board a* our own
Fxiward McPharlin.
I visited a friend in Bal
tie Creek living in a similar
project and found them all
very happy and I assure you
1 am very happy foe them.

To the Editor;
I have been reading with
interest the insult exchange
between Ken Howe and
Mary l*&gt;u Gray. Ken is a
eandidatc for Mayor of tbe
City of Hasting*. In his rr
bulta) letter. Ken accuses
Mary U&gt;u of Ibeingl The
acknowledged expert in the
area of smutty poliiicw.”
Ma.-y U&gt;u is a non candidate.
Mary L&gt;u. however, is non
plussed by hi* insult but
take* offense that the
mayohal candidate address
rd her as. •'.Ms." when »hc
would rather be a "Mrs.”
So here we have a candi
dale publically insulting a
possible constituent and
then accusing her of acting
like a smutty publican.
The only one who really
win* is opponent Ivan Sny­
der. You can count ■« it.
In the public interest,
Jacqueline Battiste

To tbe Editor:
Hear Mr. Miller:
West State Roart is a very
busy street especially in thr
morning. We have many
children from thr Taffre
Addition who must walk to
and from school along this
street.
Several year* agn a* my
children became old enough
to start school. I inquired
about having sidewalks in­
stalled along al least one
ode of this street. This. I
wa* informed, is not possible
without ■ petition signed by
a percentage of the affected
property owner* 11 might
interject that the city can
force property owner* to
pay for eity sewers, how
ever, on the bast* nf health
without any petition.! I* not
the safety of our children a*
important as their health?
Meanwhile. I have instrue
ted my children to walk off
the mad along thi* street
whenever possible Often
tune* this mean* walking
very close to people's front
doors because of the sleep
bank along Slate Road. But
with the wet. uncut grasa.
and soon approaching snow
thi* become* very difficult,
if not impossible, to do. So

the chddrrn walk along the
end of lhe road.
Last Monday I learned of
a new danger My children
and I were walking along lhe
edge of State Hoad toward
Broadway. Several car*
pasM-d us. each moving over
a little to give us extra
clearance.
Then a school bu» came
down upon us. Although
there wrrr no car* in the
inside lane, lhe hu* did mH
move over at all. I was
nearly swept off my feet. A
couple of Junior High stu­
dents walking ahead of u*
jumped onto the curb just as
the bus roared by. They
informed me none of the
busses move over along thi*
street. They must jump onto
the curb like this every lime
a bus goe* by.
Hcase fur our children'*
safety, if we can't have a
safe place to walk (side
walks' at least inform lhe
bus drivers their main con
cern should he the safely of
children. Not oo’y the one*
on 'he bu*. hut those walk
ing to school a* well.
Thank you.

Milk of dairy eattle in

1973. the m:;k will be coc.
fiscal ed. Then each cow
from that farm will be tested
to we which are contamin­
ated. The farmer can use
those animals for breeding
or cull them for daughter.
Van Patton said that bulk
samples of milk from many
areas in the state have al­
ready been tested and aa of
Friday all were within legal
limits.
He said tests of tissue of
beef cattle have thus far
turned up only one sample
over the legal limit of PBB.

Beef cattle are tested. Vm
Patton said, only when the
individual fanner is ready to
cull the animal for slaughter.
He said the farmer must
have the test done and the
cattle 'cannot get into the
slaughter house or auction
without the Itest result) slip
in hand."
The Department of Na­
tural Resources has not yet
been able to come up with a
burial site or way of headling the contaminated cattle,
although incineration and
keeping the dead cattle in a
cooler until a plan is worked
out are being discuaaed as
solution.

Telephone Budget
Service Is A Bargain
More than 105.000 Miehi
gan families are paying less
foe telephone service than
just about anyone else in lhe
country. Michigan Bell says.
These families arc paying
*3.39 a month for two party
Budget Service-about thr
cost &lt;&gt;f tomparable phone
service 50 years ago Rut
although the service is prie
ed aa low as 1927. its quality
ia 1977. according to Robert
J. Hammond, local Michigan
Bell manager.
With two-party Budget
Service. Michigan Bell rest
dener customers anywhere
in the state can have one
phone, nuke up to 45 local
calls a month and receive an
unlimited number of local
and long distance telephone
calls.
Twopart y Budget Ser
vice is pretty basic tele
phone service, but it is es­
pecially designed and priced
to make sure that any cus­
tomer who needs the se­
curity of phone service can
have it-at a price he or she
can afford to pay." Ham
m«nd said.
It is especially beneficial

to most senior citiaena. peo­
ple living on low or fixed
incomes and those who re­
ceive more telephone calls
•han they make, he said.
The typical two-party
Budget Service customer is
a retiree about 63 years
old often a widow-with an
average annual income al
LViOO. Moreover, customers
with lhe service most often
have only one or two people
in their family and they
make an average cl about
one telephone call a day.
Hammond said.
Many use Budget Service
as an "emergency-type" ser­
vice- a system which enables
family and friends to cal)
frequently to check on shut­
ins living alone, he noted. It
provides Inexpensive re­
assurance fur Budget Ser
vice customers and their
families and friends.
Michigan Bell first intro­
duced Budget Service in
July, 1964. to meet a de­
mand for low-cost phone
service for people with limit­
ed incomes, retirees, the un
employed and those who
wanted a telephone primari­

Fan &amp; City Week is an activity which has
caught the imagination of farm, businesa, govei.iaental and lay leaders alike. The necessity
of closing the breach in understanding between
the rural and urban segments of the Anerican
economy is a very real one. Farm &amp; City Veek
han taken the lead in closing this breach through
a concentrated exchange of ideas and information,
and through widespread "get acquainted" affairs
between farm folks and city folks.
Both farm people and city people depend on
each other for products and services that are
essential to modern business and living. One
can't live without the other. Together they
make the best food and fiber teas in the world 1

Grand Valley, reminds you

There are things
you can do to control the cost
of your phone bill.
We are constantly searching for ways to help you economize on your
phone service, but here are just a few ideas on how you can help yourself
Call when it s least expensive. For example, when you're calling long
distance, dial direct and plan your calls for times when the rates are lowest

Budget Service that's really low budget! Look into the availability of
Budget Service if you don't make a lot of phone calls every month It's the
least expensive one or two party phone service we offer

Plan to have all vour service installed in one visit. For instance, if you
move plan carelull/ so the installer doesn't have to make extra trips
for which you may have to pay additional charges And while you re '
planning for new service, make sure it's going to be
the kind most suited to your needs
Sometimes, little tips can save you a surprising
amount over the long haul We ll keep trying to
help you save

saving out two for Chriu
mat dinner.
On lhe Friday before
Christmas we had our school
Chnstmas program There
were -nly kerosene lamps to
light the stage, and the
school was filled to capacity
We had drawn names, and
knew for sure we would
have one gift!
Father got lhe sleigh
ready, and with hor»c Nan
krls to cover us. wr went
thru two miles, like light
ning. It seemed.
Everyone was there! Thr
men lined up against the
wall*, the women seated,
every man prepared
watch the lamp*. The Christ
mas tree had five lighted
eandle*. one at the top and
two on each tide. Il was
beautiful!
I asked the teacher if 1
might have some of the red
ami green crept* paper when
it wa* over and a handful of
tinsel. I went home with a
happy heart! I tnld my
brother. Clifford, we would
have a tree!
The next morning we
loaded our chickens into a
crate, with Sister Elue. we
set out foe town
We sang, all the way Dur
chicken* sold, for ao little. I
was glad for the two ilol
lor* I earned selling wal­
nut*. earlier.
We shopped carefully. A
pair of millens for father,
and some "velvet" tobacco,
we decided. For mother, a
carnival glass (pottedl dish,
and some "Jap Row" soap.
For our two year &lt;dd sister,
a bttle red chair, which cost
75 cent*, and a pull toy. we
girl* bought bath salt*, for
each other, and a cast iron
horse bank, for Clifford. and
for broth - Charles *uroe
mitten* and a mouse that
squeaked. We bought three
fancy ornaments, for the
tree, which we didn't even
have yet.
The rfarknev wa* settling
on. when reached home,
with our treasurer
Papa,
can we have a tree?" we
asked. "If you can find one in
lhe dark." he answrnd. We
took the lantern, and plowed
through the snow, to a four
foot tree. There we whittled
away al it for what seemed
like hours. Al last, it was
down. We dragged it to the
house where father made a
standard far it. Garland with
red and green crepe paper,
it wa* beautiful. We shoved
the little ones off to lied,
while we strung popcorn,
and made randy, two kinds,
for after all it wa* Christ

The next morning, there
were two bisque doll* under
the tree. All kind* of nuts

Reports of Barry County’s

Problems Greatly Exaggerated
By HUGH FULLERTON
tianner PubiiMw.
Some Barry County roaidonta were In­
censed. Othera were surprised. because they
never knew that we had such terrific
A few of ua were merely amueed.
Over what?
The Channel 8 three-part aeries on the
"probiema" of Barry County, and why our
poor krtie county to unaNo to aohre them
h was a types! exempts of why TV news
ha* auch a bad reputation. The eerie* (which
probably totaled no more than 15 minutes,
and repeated itself often) urea superficial,
exaggerated, and at times bieuntiy in­
accurate and misinformed. Sure, there was a
bn of truth to It . But it was far from ths
thoroughgoing reporting job
a “BO
Minutoe" segment.
In short, although it was unflattering to
Barry County, it was herdfy enough tc get
upset about.
The theme of the series, narrated by John
Estabrook, seemed to be that Barry County
has terrific probiema because of Its position
between four larger cities; and the dnddod
toyollie* of its residents are preventing
sototione to those problem*
As we said, there is a grain of truth there.
But only a grain
Do we have probiema? Sum. Doesn't
everybody?
One of the Nggeet problem* of the county
was hardly montioned-the need for sanitary
sewer* around many of our wo*-populated
lake areas, to prevent poBution to the
waterway*-one of Barry County's major
resources. But far from being stymied, the
county and reaidanta of several areas are
actively working on plane to construct those
sewer*. The Gun Lake project to farthest
along, but othera ore in the work* for WaB
and Crooked Lakes, Thomsppie. MiddteLeach-Algonquin, etc. h's a problem that can
be solved.
Transportation? Depends on who you tak
to. Well match Barry County's local roads
agamst those of any nearby rural county. We
have more paved roads, and better dirt
toads, than most. And who wants the traffic
of the urban counties? 1 can make better time
on Cook Road or East State Road than on
28th St. or Columbia Ave The urban
c.mntics may have better roads but they aril
have tat morn traffic than some of those
good roads can handte.
Maybe our state highways are not the beat
for truck traffic. But I’d rather &lt;*rv* on M 31
or M-43 than a straight. fiat, boring freeway
And they sure aren't any more dangerous
than the infamous S-curve In downtown
Grand Rapids which they are finaBy aBeviating.
Schools? Thera may be some dwtricts in
Kent County better then those in Barry

County. But there are othera I would not
wont my children to attend. And does any
nearby county have uniformly modern high
schools aa Barry County does? With com­
paratively moderate taxes? We may not be
East Grand Rapids, but wo do very «mB on a
lot too*, thank you.
Housing? We have the good and the bad.
Hko most aroos. But unkke the urban areas,
we don't put af the poor folks in downtown
siume and forget about them aa the rest of us
return to our look-aflto suburban neighbor­
hoods at night. Sure, it's a problem. But It to
neither unique nor insoluble
Yoe. we'd Nke to have more jobs here for
our own people. Channel 8 wee right when h
vnsrviewod several local people about the
rkfficuRy of attracting bueineae which em­
ploys a lot of labor. But whan nearby dties
are hiring. Barry County reaidants aren't
afraid to dnve ■ few rnOe* to find wotk Qu,
unemployment rate tends to IoBow the state
and aapadaBy the four nearby dties. We live
in the country, not in a vacuum.
Now for the other side of the picture--the
one that Channel 8 overlooked.
Its position between four dties is one of
ths reel achzantages of Barry County. In lees
than a hour, a Hastings area resident can
he* a hto choice of a couple dozen theaters, a
dozen shopping maBs. hundreds of restau­
rants. three zoos, two major universities, the
State Capital, several smaller coBegae.
profeaaionai hockey, four symphonies, etc.
etc. etc. Then when ha tires of the crowds,
the freeways, the impersonal city
atmosphere, he can just aa quickly return to
the pastoral country life, where he is safe
among the people he knows and who know
him.
Although crime is increasing in Barry
County, as m the whole country, it has not
reschad ths epidemic proportions of many
dties. And violent crime, thank goodness, is
still a rarity hare- Hastings, Mkfdleviilo and
Hickory Comers are a lot safer at night than
any city I know
The growth noted by Channel 8 to
evidence that many other folks are discover­
ing our natural advantages clean air. open
apace, friendly people, good school*. Not to
mention good government which is run
honestly and comparativafy sffidsntly. I’B
gladly compare our Heatings utiitiae, our
Barry County Sheriff’s Deportment, our
County Rood Commission, with their count­
erparts in most other areas.
So welcome, newcomers. We hope you

Coy of the Office of
Economic Expandon. Miehi
gan Department of Commertc. he took the Initiative
to propose the Article* of

pen*e. because he believed it
would be of great value to
krai industrial and buri
ne»« expansion.
Also at Monday'* regular

rant Company whfeh. they
said. I* interested in c»
tablishing a i'iAO.IKM) re*
taurant in Hasting*, and in
10 or more other communi
tie* next year.
They also proposed rn
Economic Development Cor­
poration, through which lax
exempt revenue bonds could
be issued without any cost
or obligation &lt;m the pari of
the city of Hasting*.
The advantage of having
revenue
bonds
issued
through a governmental
EIM’ iv that they are tax
exempt by the U.S. Inter
nal Revenue Service, often
representing an Intere*!
saving of fmm two to two
and one half percent, lhey
explained.
The cost of issuing the
K15U.OOO in bonds to finance
the Elia* facility would be
paid entirely by Elia*.
Smucker said. laical busi­
nesses could utilize the EDC
for smaller kian*. if needed.
Pie Elia* plan is lo have
the EDC in operation and
work rotnplelrd for the
March sale of the revenue
bond*. The Ohio Company
will purchase the bund*. for
resale to its customer* in a
10slate area. Other com­
munities being considered
for Elia* expansion are
Chari-Hi e and Ionia.
Smucker explained Elia*
plan* the $350,000 Hasting*
facility to seal 140 with
ahiut 4.400 square feel of

tion at $205,000. underwrit
ing at I1N.000 and account
ing. legal nnd other expens
es at 17.000.
Atty. Burleigh explained
that an Economic Develop
mem Corporation works
through nine directors
named by the mayor with
council confirmation. The de
veloper such a* Elias
Brother*, would provide the
legal work for the issuing of
the revenue bond* with The
Ohio Company purr having
them, for resale to it* cu»
turner*. The Elia* Company
would he responsible foe
retiring the bond* and m
teresi. working through a
trustee, and when the IS
year bond* are paid off. the
company would obtain title
to i he pmperty which will be
operated by a franchise.
Wiswell explained that in­
die trialirt* and other buri

nr*»mrn ran get «mallrr

an EDC. and I hat is why he
i* “willing Io pay ihe shot."
The Elia* represent alive

and were willing to work
through it.
Cordon Euhr of th* Han

In addition, recommenda
lions were made lo improve

The audit report indicated
that the county had spent

The report revealed that

School Construction Could
Cott More Under New Bill
By [HANA DD.l.ABER
I -anting Bureau
Hep. Donald Gilmer pre
diets school construction and
remodeling will be mn.e ex­
pensive if a bill passed by
Ihe house last week, also
passes the senate.
The bill would require the
school to not always accept
the lowest bid. Gilmer said,
but the one with the pre
vailing wage, the union bid.
The prevailing wage is set in
each area hy collective bar
gaining, he said.
An amendment lo require
Ihe slate to reimburse the
school for Ihe difference in
cost between the low non
union hid and the higher
union bid. which Gilmer
supported, did nol pass.
The freshman represent a
tive said according to a
study submitted with the
bill, comparing union with
non-union bids on recent
school buildings, union bids
are usually, although rot
always, higher. For example
one comparison showed a

masonry bid from a union
firm to be PC!,000 more than
the low non union bid.
He said he received a
letter from the Middleville
school stating that their
recent building would have
cost between &gt;230,000 to
$575,000 more if Ihe prevail­
ing wage law had been in
effect when they built.
He said he fought against
the bill in the labor Com­
mittee and fought it and lost
on the House floor.
'One of the basic prin­
ciples in the country is
founded on," he said, “is the
right to the lowest bid." He
■aid the reason for ihe hill is

because some people believe
non-union employees get
“scab" wages.
“I think the employee is
best to determine what is
“M-ab wages". Gilmer said.
He contends both union and
non union pay above mini
mum wage and there is not
much difference between
union and non union pay.
The AFlrClO was behind
ihe bill, he said. It was
strong arm pressure politics
he said.
"I think the people of
Michigan were sold out on
the bill."

Plan with your children how to
escape from various parts of the house
in case of fire - and instruct them how to
avoid starting fires - and haw to roll up in
a rug or blanket, or to jump under the
shower in case their clothing catches
fire. This can avoid a family tragedy. A
garden hose attached and coiled inside
the house will often reach any room in
the house to quickly put out a fire.
Electrical fires can only be controlled by
shutting off the electricity.

Two biographies on Ben
janttn Frankhn have been
added to our ahehes: David
Sehrmbrvn* Triumph in
Paria. and Franklin by
David Freeman Hawke.
The Seh*enbrun book is
tnorr sympathetic to Frank
tin; his book starts when al
the age of seventy Franklin
goes to Paris to negotiate
Americas first foreign alli­
ance and secure the arms,
men and money lor the War
for Independence.
Sch«*nbrun suggests that
ihe activities of Frankoin in
Paris were probably the de
naive factor in American
victory. Hawke, on the other
hand. hxAs al Franklin from
a much more critical vantage
point. His Inography is more
comprehensive in that it
deals with Ihe whole of
Franklin's life, hut his view
of him Is not that of the
brilliant diplomat, but rath­
er as one whose very mo
lives should be questioned
(was he not partial lo rather
Anglophile attitudes for a
true Colonial Sam?). These
b&gt;*&gt;ks give two very dif
ft rent versions of Franklin
and the role he and his
country played in the Ibthy
century.
Thr Power Peddler* by
Russell Warren Howe and
Sarah Hays Trott deals with
foreign policy in thr 20th
century. This bo&lt;&gt;k explores
the workings of the foreign
lobbyist in Washington and

that only one cruet of ««(l.

miraculously, for the entire
eight days.
The celebration of Hanuk

the lighting of an eight

is lighted on each of right

Banner Pubtrsber
Never seen anything like It. In all my years
as a newspaperman. I don't think I've ever
written anything which has drawn such wide
comment as my column a week ago on the
Channel 8 Barty County series.
And the nice part is nearly everyone
seems to agree with me. that the TV senes
was poor journalism, inaccurate and not a
fair commentary. We newsmen later under
the assumption that most people who road
our work rarely comment So if the number
who have sa&gt;d or written something to me or
the Banner on that single column is any
indication, there a&gt;e an awful lot of you folks
who are reading us. Thanks.
Mranwtulc back in my backyard, the birds
are flocking to my new feeder. About a week
ago. I saw five ternate evening grosbeaks one
morning Lt the tree above were two mates,
who soon jomed the vanguard Next

Twenty free years ago. evening grosbeaks
were a real rarity in the area of New Jersey
where I was raised Ono severe winter we
had a lot of them, and if was quite a thnS to
those of us who were feeding them. Now

they seem to have extended their winter
range southward, so we can expect them
every winter, ti least In thia area.
For so early in the wintar &lt;techmca»y st*
autumn), the number and variety of birds this
wmier has L en unusual. I counted a flock of
16 goldfinches one day, and Friday there
were several mourning doves on the ground.

What can you do for the
common rold?
Moat folks know you can't
cure |i. And yet we keep
trying. We still waste a lot of
tune and money on pills and
nostrums and treatmentsall in the faint hope that
maybe this time something
will help.
A cold is caused by one or
more of many viruses, the
American Medical Asaoci
at ion reminds, and. actually,
grandma's home therapy is
still good. If you get a cold,
stay home in bed. Keep
warm. Gargle to ease a sore
throat. Take a mild pain
reliever for the discomfort.
None of this will cure the
rold. but it will make you
feel somewhat more com­
fortable while your body's
natural defense mechanisms
are building up enough
steam to overcome the cnld
virus.
Moat of us have a cold or
two during the course of the
winter. Usually we try to
keep going to the office, but
somet lines we feel too bad to
work and spend a day or two
at home.
There are medications
now available-antihis­
tamines. pain relievers,
rough suppressants, and fe­
ver reducers-thal can make
the symptoms of a cold must
less severe. These have
their limitations and their
problems. The antihista­
mines can cause drowsiness,
which can be highly danger
ous when driving an auto. If
you get a cnld. ask your

Says No-Till ‘Proof Positive*
Overcast tile*. drizzle

Till Harvest Day held al Dan
and Margaret Gnk's farm
near Vermontville. Mich.
Extended rain* had preced­
ed Harvest Day. a follow up
to the August 10th No Till
Field Day.
The picker shrllcr moving
through the rain soaked
field* sank several inches
into the conventionally
planted rorn fields, deeply
gouging the soil leaving
sloping field* vulnerable to
soil vro«h&gt;n. According to
Wendell Sommers, Eaton
County Soil Conservationist,
the damaging ruts would
have been even more severe
had extra wide tires not
been used.
Nearby, in the No-Till
pkrt*. Ihr residue left in the
field* prevented the same
combine from sinking, tin
the NoTill technique, the
seed is planted through a
chemically killed residue in
to sod which is unlillrd
except for a narrow strip
just wide enough for the
tender seedling to sprout.
The method is made possible
through the use of a new
chemical tool called Para­
quat which speedily kills
existing weeds, used in rom
bination with residual herbi
ride* which prevent weed
seeds from germinating,
weeds which in both cases
would compete with the rorn
for soil moisture and soil
nutrients).
Actual harvest yield re­
sults were almost instant­
ly obtained for Harvest Day

were carefully measured
and stalk count, were taken.
Highest yielding in the
comparison tests was of the
No Till plots on Dan Cook's
farm which produced 142.2
bushels tn the acre. The
average of Dan's several
NoTill lest plots was 138.2
bushels to the acre. AH of
Dan's No Til pkx. yielded
more than his conventionally

planted rorn. which pro
duccd 133.4 bushel*'acre.
Dan's No-Till pkits were
planted in growing wheat
and in wheat Hubble. North­
rup King I’X 32 was t he com
variety planted in all his teat
plots. Weed control in the
No Till plots was good, with

sity's recommended combi­
nations of residua) herbi­
cide* bring used with Para­
quat. with comparable re­
sults.
Warren Cook. Eaton
County Extension agent
wh&lt;&gt; directed the fact gath
ering operation, said of the
test plots "Up to now all we
had was speculation. This,"
he said, referring to the
factual data, "is proof posi­
tive."
Dan Cook (no relation to
the Extension agent) attri­
bute* his success in No Till
to good management. "Man­
agement is the key," he com­
mented. to which Warren
Cook agreed. "You have to
be exact with No-Till. you
have to learn right. The
problem is." Warren Cook
assert*, “loo many farm­
ers leave loo much up to
God."
A pleased Dan Cook is
convinced enough about the
merits of No TUI that he
plans to buy a wheat drill to
No Till his wheat.
Forrest Gardner, another
boat farmer, remarked he
was impressed with the
moisture-holding qualities of
No-Til) which he noticed es­
pecially nn a sandy field he
has. Although his No Till
and conventionally tilled
rorn yields were compar­
able. Gardner (eels NoTill
has enough benefits that he
plans to plant all his acre
age next year in No-THl
What are these benefits of
NoTili? Observations made
at the Vermontville No-Ttll
Harvest Day included:
'Sloping No-Till Fields
were free of ruts and ero­
sion caused ditches.
•No-THl prevented water
runoff, increasing the
waler holding capacity of
the soil.
•Those who peered under
the No-TUl residue discover
ed soil which was friable aid
porous, allowing movement
of water and oxygen

through the soil for improv
ed plant growth. In contrast,
where conventionally tilled,
the soil was waterrlogged.
When squeezed in the hand,
it held its shape.
•Contrary to popular
opinion, opening the soil by
plow or disc plants a new
crop of weed seeds as waa
observed in Cook's conven­
tionally tilled cum field.
•The adult beetle of the
Western Corn Root Worm
and the damage it causedwere observed al the Har
vest Day. On high ground
where ronventLmally tilled
rorn germinated late due to
insufficient moisture, silking
coincided with the enter
genre of the adult stage of
the Western Corn Root
Worm. The insect, which has
recently become an econo­
mic pest in Michigan, cuts
the rorn silk, thus inter­
fering with pollination. As a
result. Sommers naled "We
have the biggest crop of long
cobs...each with but six ker
nets on it." No such delay in
germination (or resulting
damage) occurred in No-Till
No Till's benefits are sum
med up by Dr. Sylvan Witt­
wer. Director of Michigan
State University's Ex
perimental Station, who
says "No-TUl is the most
significant technological de­
velopment in rorn produc­
tion in the United States in
terms of conservation of soil
and water, organic matter
and energy."
That's good news to a

New Panooage

of the Faith
By STAN CI-ANTON

Dedicated at Delton
The new parsonage of the
Faith United Methodi*:
Church of Delton was dedi­
cated Sunday, marking a
proud accomplishment for
the congregation.
Volunteer* were respon
siNe for much of the labor in
constructing the two-story.

four bedroom parsonage on
Bush Street, behind the
church. Ground was broken
for l he project last April.
The dedication of the par­
sonage was held after the
regular morning worship
service Sunday. Rev. Al
Freven. district superinlen
dent, praised the parsonage
project and the efforts of the
congregation.

Keya to the parsonage
were presented to the Rev.
Elmer Faust by Richard
Martin, trustees chairman,
after he accepted them from
building chairman Dari Her­
bert.
An open house was held *•
the parsonage, following the
service. Rev. Faust and hi*
family plan to move into
their new home this week.

Ona writer of scripture. Juda, exhorted Christmas
to "earnestly contend for the faith which wae ones
delivered unto the saints" (Jude 3). This interesting
verse speaks dearly of the finality of the Christian
doctrine. The word for "once" in the original language

Hebrews »2B whore it speaks of Christ's one-time
sacrifice for sins. Just as Christ's sacrifice was carried

perfect than it was, so "the faith” was once given
authority to change or add to "the faith" (the doctrine
or teaching dskvered by Christ and hie apostles). Thus.

heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that

accursed" (Galatians 1:8). The early writers knew that
even eaten hanaaif sometimes ia fashioned into an
angel of light and pretend* to be a minister of
righteousness (II Corinthians 11:13-15).
God's law is absolute. Nertner culture, church

Todd had kind words for
Hasting* and most of Barry
County in his evaluation of
the water cleanup job. He
said the Hastings sewage
treatment does a good job of
treatment, and the Middle­
ville plant is "outstanding."
Although M&gt;me problems

then used to determine

In the last few years, a lot

correcting socalled "point

•aid. Fni..! sources ar* this

like, where pollution come*

A m-Tv difficult problem
to correct is pollution from
m&gt;n point source*. Todd
said. Non point sources
would include such thing* a*
city storm runoff, erosion,
farm runoff and septic tank
teaching.
Non-point source* can
cause substantial pollution,
but is much harder to con
trol. Todd said. Solutions
include measures to prevent
the runoff from occurring,
and recycling it back into thr
ground before it reaches
bodies of water.

No other publication covers
the local scene like the Banner.
It s all nere-society, sports, civic
affairs, school news, obituaries,
and much, much more. The
Banner has the biggest Classi­

Il is the only newspaper with
complete church listings every

All this for $8.00? It's hard to

They say people are moving

Hut borrowing, the

important thing Io know
about debt i* whether it is
under control firmly in har
nes* anil working for you
rather than against you.
The Michigan CPA
organization cites the ex
ample of a home purchased
with a large mortgage loan.
A* the loan is paid off, the
family's equity in Ihr house
rises, which is a form of
savings. Meanwhile, the
house usually appreciate* in
value. In addition, while

been spent on rent, a home
owner benefits from tax
deductions on hi* mortgage
interest and property taxes.

Feature Barn Owl

For Living Resources
The barn owl is being
featured for the 1977 78
Michigan's Living Resources
Pr «ram by lhe Department
of Natural Resources.
Few Mate residents have
ever seen the bam owl
because it is a threatened
species in Michigan. During
the winter months, the owls
are lucky to just survive.
Four or five pairs of bam
owls are known in Michigan
and reports of others are
Tillering into lhe DNR.
Tbe bam owl is nne of
nature's more unusual ap­
pearing creatures. Its most
striking feature lr its face, a
heart shaped while mask set
off by big black eyes and
large ear tufts, looking al
the bird or its picture, you
can easily see why "monkey
faced owl" is a common

The Hastings
Banner
104 rimes A Year
The Hastings Banner--the
only newspaper which serves all
of Barry County--is the unique
Christmas gift! One size fits
everyonel He or she won't get a
similar one in another size or
color! Never a problem with
exchanges!
No other publication covers
the local scene like the Banner,
h's all here--society, sports, civic
affairs, school news, obituaries,
and much, much more. The
Banner has the biggest Classi­
fied Ad section in Barry County.
It is the only newspaper with
complete church listings every
week. It is the only county
newspaper sending staff mem­
bers regularly to cover high
school sports.
All this for $8.00? It's hard to
believe, but true. For not much
more than the cost of a good
necktie, less than a blouse ur
shirt, you can send the Banner
for an entire year.
Just fill out the coupon below
and return it to the Banner
office, P.O. Box B or 119 W.
State St., Hastings, Mich.
49058. We'll do the rest, includ­
ing sending a special card to
announce the gift to the reci­
pient.

Immediately saw off about

Once brought inside for
decorating, the tree should
be placed away from heal­

p&gt; lies mutt secure a permit
points out Thomas Segall,
DNR geologist in charge of
rrciamatinn and mining.
To get a permit, an appli­
cant mutt submit an en­
vironmental impact stale
meni. a mining and reclama­
tion plan, and a ISyear
mining plan.
"We are now working on
designation of sia sand dune
areas." Segall says, "all of
which are along the lake
Michigan shoreline. Public
hearings will be held in
those areas early in 1978.
Hopefully, the areas will be
designated officially by July
1. 1978."
Those sis areas are:
Bridgman-Benton Harbor.
Berrien County: Hagar
Township. Berrien County
and Covert Township. Van
Buren County;
Grand
Haven. Ottawa County and
Muskegon. Muskegon Coun­
ty: Stony Lake-Silver Lake.
Oceana County; Lincoln
Lake Hamlin Lake. Mason
County; Hendricks-Moran
Townships, Maekinac

County.
These are high priority
areas for design at i-xt." he
emphasises, "because of
their high use by the mining
industry and by the public.
After these sis areas are
designated, we will begin
work &lt;&gt;n designating other
sand dune areas in the
stale."
Segall says the DNR wel­
comes any written sugges
tbms tn&gt;m the public «m

by BON DINGERSON
Mrry Agrteutaml Afoot
f'urnwn ronsidering buy­
ing additional farm land
should make aura they have
the finsnrial rewuirros to
wit hit and two ur three
yean of low farm earnings.
Usually farm land value ia
based on Ila earning poten­
tial but an equally important
factor ia the variability in
farmer's income, which at
this lime could be a risk.
Even though farm Land
prices are declining or re­
maining constant fiw the
first time since the 1960s,
thia may be the time for
farmers wit h high debt loads
to forego any postponable
capital investment which in­
creases debt load.
U.S. Department of Agri­
culture (USDA) statistics
show that currently 94 per­
cent of the farm land pur­
chases are financed on credit
compared to 44 percent in
the 1940s and 1960a. The
potential danger is lack of
credit reserves to meet
mortgage payments. If farm­
ers lack the cash reserves-either from earnings or bor­
rowings- to withstand two
or three poor income yean
in «uccr*sion. they may be
forced to liquidate, even
though they may be earning
acceptable rates of return.
The key is the stability of
the borrower's Income in
addition to assessing how
much the land will return.
Usually, farm land value is
bated &lt;m its earning poten­
tial and therefore is associ­
ated with farm market
prim.

By 1979 or I960, farm land
prices will show a rather
steady increase, although it
won't be as rapid as the
price rises aeen in recent
years
Part of thia reasoning
stems from inflation rates,
and mood of the Carter
Administration to prevent
low income by reintroducing
price supports to reduce un­
certainty &lt;4 farm income.
Because stability of income
ia valued by farmers. It is
expected that a more stable
farm inc** will result in
higher land prices.
Generally. farm owners
with high rates of return on
their investment are the
best borrowers, but net re­
turns may not be the only
criterion to consider when
buying land. Many small
farmers still run a small
enterprise while supporting
themselves with stable offfarm jobs and they can be
acceptable real estate bor-

Therefore. lenders and
farmers should consider the
stability of the farm's cash
flow in addition to aaaeaaing
how much the land will earn.
If the borrower's loan is
fixed at the time the loan is
made, the lender ia not
protected should the Loan­
making costa increase. Lend­
ers should be a position to
assist the farmer during low
income periods, and thia can
be accomplished through
shorter renewable contracts
or through variable Interest
rates.

The following history highlights are taken from Richard Cook's history as published in the 1956 Centennial Edition of The Hastings Banner, and recapped by Esther Walton in her From Time to Time column in The Banner dated April 12, 1984.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Links to online copies of the paper follow the history section.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Searching the paper:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;The Banner, and all other PDF files on this history portal, are fully searchable.

Burton &amp;amp; Co. were listed as the proprietors of the "Republican Banner", which first appeared here on May 1, 1856, with Dr. C. S. Burton as the publisher and Norman Bailey as editor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Publication office was on the second floor of the Rower Block, whose address was given as "corner of State and Church"; which corner was not specified.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The objective of this publication was to win support for the newly created Republican party and thus counteract the influence of the Barry County Pioneer, a Democratic journal that had been published here since 1851. No copies of the first three issues of The Banner were saved.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Make-up on the first journal corresponded with a pattern typical of most local journals then published. Page one contained a few columns of advertising, fiction (often a continued story), and a short feature of no particular news value. Page one was the "literary" page.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Page two contained the editorial barbs, along with state news, political articles, Washington items and news of the national and territorial giovernments. Page three contained a few items of local news, sandwiched inbetween the local and foreign news.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Page four was usually solid with advertising and as such was the editor's "bread and butter" page....Locally it was the pattern until the early 1880s.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Several changes in ownership and management occurred during the first two years of publication, with J. M. Nevins taking over ownership interests on July 16, 1857. With the issue of May 7, 1862, "The Republican Banner" became "The Hastings Banner". Editor Nevins thought the village had developed sufficiently during the past several years to merit this recognition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another major change in the management of The Banner came when Nevins sold the newspaper to George M. Dewey of Niles on March 14, 1866, who then took over as editor and publisher. Dewey, an ardent Republican and somewhat of a crusader, gave considerable space to editorial comment and party affairs and also directed pointed paragraphs against the saloons and local traffic in liquor. Dewey was the grandfather of Thomas E. Dewey, Republican presidential nominee in 1944 and 1948. Editor Dewey on May 4, 1870 changed the format (and name) of the paper to "Hastings Republican Banner". &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A fire in December 1883 burned The Banner plant (located in the middle of the block on the north side of State St. across from the courthouse). Files and back issues from August 1880 to December 1883 and the January 4, 1884 issues are missing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Banner was purchased by Marshall L. Cook and George Bower on July 21, 1880. They changed the name to "The Hastings Banner". M. L. Cook soon became the sole owner and remained so until July 7, 1887 when Albert Nishern (M. L.'s brother-in-law) joined him. Albert Nishern sold his interest on November 6, 1889 to William Cook (M. L.'s younger brother).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Cook brothers partnership held together (56 years) ... Richard Cook followed his father into the newspaper business, and Richard's son William joined him. So the Cook family ownership continued for 85 years, from 1880 to 1974, when Richard and William sold the paper to High Fullerton. J-Ad Graphics became the owners of "The Hastings Banner" in August of 1981.</text>
