Cattle Buying for Swift & Company Swift & Company buys more than 9000 head of cattle, on an average, every market day. Each one of them is “sized up” by experts. Both the packer’s buyer and the commission salesman must judge what amount of meat each animal will yield, and how fine it will be, the grading of the hide, and the quantity and quality of the fat. , Both must know market conditions for live stock and meat throughout the country. The buyer must know where the different qualities, weights, and kinds of cattle can be best marketed as oeef. If the buyer pays more than the animal is worth, the packer loses money on it If he offers less, another packer, or a shipper or feeder, gets it away from him. If the seller accepts too little, the live­ stock raiser gets less than he is entitled to. If he holds out for more than it is worth, he fails to make a sale. A variation of a few cents in the price •per hundred pounds is a matter of vital importance to the packer, because it means the difference between profit and loss.

L. Glasgow dittoes to his gray hairs, dently not much The worse for his ex­ perience. Mrs. Lentz was called io Grand Rapids by the illness of her daughter, leaving Lew alone. Lew didn’t want to board out while she was away, so Mrs. Lentx baked up a supply of stuff and with that Lew said he "could get along just fine," and he started in. The first morn­ ing be had toast and coffee for break­ fast. and aside from the coffee being muddy and the toast badly burned, everything was fine. At noon he de­ cided he didn’t have time to get his own dinner, so he went to a board­ ing house, but he got his own supper. This consisted of some baked articles and a glass of water. The next morning he warmed up potatoes, and didn't get more* than halt of them on the stove and the floor. Dinner out. Supper was baked goods and water again, but the water this time had a few tea grounds in it. Next morning he tried some beefsteak, but it look­ ed like a piece of tripe and tasted worse. -Dinner out. For supper he decided on an egg sandwich, so he donned an apron and went at it. He had seen his wife break an egg and he .knew she hit it a quick belt on the equator, and he Just knew be could break one the first time he tried It. He did. But he didn’t get any of that egg in the frying pan. With what went on his hands, hit clothes, the floor aud.tbe top of the stove, there wasn't anything left except fragments of the shell to put in the frying pan. He grabbed a dish-rag to wipe up the mess, but he never knew before that there was so much lace and tatting and ruffles and things on a dish-rag, and he.found out later that it wasn’t a dish-rag at all. Well, he ate the egg sandwich without any egg in it. For breakfast, the next morning he had "welnies,” dear to his heart. He knew all he had to.do with them was to warm them up in a dish of hot water. While they were beating up, he stuck a fork in one to see if it was done, and it squirted and hit him in the eye, and J)y the time ha found a towel and got that eye swabbed out the weinies had all burned to a crisp, so he had bread and coffee for breakfast, -for it was too late then to ’’cook’’ toast. 'Well, things went along just fine like that until he got word that his wife was coming home, and he knew what would happen if bis wife ever saw the kitchen in that condition, so he took half a day off aud washed the dishes and frying pans, etc, and got things in ship shape, swabbed a dir­ ty mop around over the floor and made it look ten times worse than ev­ er, and went down to the train to meet Mrs. Lentz. He took her home with his little heart Just filled with pride and Joy in having everything in fine shape, and you can imagine his dismay when she threw up her hands in holy horror at the first glance at that kitchen. The first thing she spotted was the ’’dish-rag”, and next she got s general view of the kitchen, and the next thing she said we’re glad we didn’t hear. Any­ way. she was so discouraged that she went to bed without touching that kitchen, but the neighbors agree that ahe was up and at It at four o’clock the next morinng, and that she had to go out the side door and around the house in order^to get into the kit­ chen at all. We suppose that since the state went dry there hasn’t been such a scene of general confusion as she found there when she did finally gain entrance into the place. Lew’s breakfast was a little late that morn­ ing, but you can bet our share of Ger­ many that he didn't find any fault about that. This was a week »go, and Lew is just commencing to re­ cover from that absent, worried look that be has been wearing, aud we hope by another week he will be able to resume his old familiar smile. ' Woodrow, Please Come Home and Dictate a Noto for Us.

Azor was with the heavy artillery and was under shell fire for several months. He spent a couple of hours in the News office Thursday afternoon, and you can im­ agine there was little work done while he was here. He has fully re­ covered from his recent severe illness and is looking and feeling fine. Carl Coolbaugh, recently returned from service in France, where he was with the radio service, has received his honorable discharge and arrived home Friday. He left France Christ­ mas morning and appreciated that as his best Christmas gift. He will re­ sume railroad telegraphy. Ernest Collins was in town Satur­ day for the first time since his honor­ able discharge from the service pf his country, and we had a good visit with him. He still suffers severely from the effects of his wounds and It will - be a long time before be will be him­ self again. He contemplates entering'one of the government schools to learn a trade of some sort which his disability will permit him to'work at. Ernest was wounded three times, one machine gun bullet entering his breast and lodging near the spine. The bullet was removed by the sur­ geons and Ernest carries It as a pock­ et piece, although he doesn't need it to remind him of his wound. Will Ireland received a telegram Tuesday from his son Ray, announc­ ing the latter's arrival at New York from France. The natural assump­ tion is that Ray will soon receive his discharge and return home. Walter Ball wires that he has re­ ceived an order for his discharge and that he will leave Kelly Field in ' Texas today for Camp Custer with a big bunch of Michigan fellows, where they will be discharged from the ser­ vice.. Word has been received that Earl Rentschler has arrived at Newport News and that he expects soon to be ■ discharged and sent home.

Many of the brave boys * who so freely offered their lives in our cause will not come back to us. Some of them sleep in sunny France. Some lie ”in Flanders’ Fields.” among the popples. Some went down to the sea in ships and there met a cruel fate. Some were cut off by accident and disease In our own land. They all died that Freedom might still live; and, while our heads are bowed with sorrow, our hearts are filled with pride and thankfulness when we think pf their willing spirit of service. We shall not forget their splendid achievements. It ta fitting, however, that we should in some special way manifest our appreciation of their noble devo­ tion and sacrifice.

"Hu sinew houses and ' individual ; taxpayers are being canvassed thia iyear by numerous so-called 'income j tax experts', who offer to use their I magic wands of income tax vision to j relieve the busy taxpayer from all i worries about the tax responalbiU*ties. ' "I desire to make public announce­ ment, for the information of taxpay­ ers, that an investigation ot the qual-, i fl cat ions of many of these 'experts* will disclose tbe fact that very few have had the training and experience that would place them anywhere near tbe expert class. "Some of them were formerly temporaYy employees of the govern­ ment who are attempting to capital­ ize this fact regardless of their per­ sonal knowledge of the revenue laws and regulations. Others are solicit.ng clients on .the strength of diplom­ as as Income tax experts obtained af­ ter taking long-distance courses by means of printed instruction ot doubtful value. "Taxpayers should not allow themselves to be imposed upon by' strangers who claim to be Income Ux experts. They should discrimi­ nate carefully between really help­ ful. authoritative advice in tax mat­ ters, and the irresponsible brand peddled under glittering pretenses. "The Bureau Is arranging to fur­ nish for tbe benefit of income tax payers in every city and town in the country, a free advisory service by trained collectors, agents, inspectors and deputies. At the office of col­ lectors and their deputies, and at other central points, free informa­ tion and advice with respect to fil­ ing returns under (he new revenue bill may be had up to the final date for filing such returns. "Banks, trust companies and sim­ ilar responsible institutions have al­ ways co-operated in furnishing au­ thentic income tax information'and have generously offered to serve the government and taxpayers in this re­ spect again this year. "I? is the alm of the bureau to bring its agencies as close as possible to every person and to make availa­ ble in official form all necessary in­ formation regarding the requirements of the law.

One of the most remarkable armis­ tices on modern record was concluded between Spain and the westfem repub­ lics of South America at Washington In 1871. It provided that there should be no renewal of hostilities between the contracting parties, except after a three-years' notice, which \vas to be given through the United States gov- Seemed Like Wasted Time. Markets for a short time during the war were not doing any delivering. Mary, age five, one night at bedtime was saying the Lord's prayer. Coming to the part “Deliver ns from evil,” she exclaimed: "Mother what is the use of praying for that, they won't deliver a thing in this town." “Bull." One evening, after the flies had been unusually troublesome, an Irish mis­ tress spread bisect powder round the windows and other places In tbe kitch­ en where the flies congregated.

UNCLE SAM’S INSURANCE. “Don’t drop Uncle Sam’s insur­ ance:’’ That is the word that Wash­ ington has asked the Red .Cross to pass on to soldiers* families and the soldiers themselves. Government insurance Is the. saf­ est and cheapest Insurance in the world.’ The soldier owes it to him­ self and to his family to hold on to his policy whether he is in military service or not, A discharged soldier may keep the War Risk policy five years after he leaves the service. All that is neceslary is the regular payment of prem­ iums. Moreover, this Government insurance may be converted into or­ dinary life insurance; forms ot poli­ cies for the same are now being pre­ pared by the government -. -.- Some soldiers and sal'ora are drop­ lag their War Risk Insurance be­ cause the relatives whom they named as beneficiaries have failed to re- ceive insurance certificates from Washington. Such action Is entire­ ly unwarranted and detrimental to the best interests of the fighting men and their loved ones. It should be remembered that Government insur­ ance Is effective regardless of the re­ ceipt of the insurance certificate. The certificate Is no part of the contract of Insurance. It merely is evidence that the contract exists; so don’t worry and above all don’t discontin­ ue the payment of our premiums simply because the it urance certiflcate has not come t_______ irough. Daily the War Risk insurance malls thou­ sands of Certificates and ultimately you will receive yours If you have not received it already.

MAPLE GROVE AN’I) ASSYRIA. 13 Dollars 13 Cents paid, say,—13 dollar* per hun­ dredweight for live beef cattle last year, the profit was only 13 cents! In other words, if we had paid $13.13, we would have made no profit. , Or, if we had received a quarter of a cent per pound less for dressed beef we wc uld have made no profit It is doubtful whether any other business is run on so close a margin of profit This is bringing the producer and the consumer pretty close together—which should be the object of any industry turning raw material into a useful form,This remarkable showing is due to enormous volume, perfected facilities (packing plants strategically located, branch houses, refrigerator cars, etc.), and an army of men and women chosen and trained to do their special work. This, and many other points of interest, are found in the Swift & Company Year Book for 1919, just published which is brought out for the public as well as for the 25,000 Swift & Company shareholders. The Year Book also represents the packer's side of the Federal Trade Commission investigation, upon which Congress is asked to base action against the industry. Many who have never heard the packer's side are sending for the Year Book. Would you like one ? Merely mail your name and address to the Chicago office and the book win come to you.

About 12:00 o’clock last Friday night Deputy Sheriff Carleton Gibson made a call upon a man in Delton to serve a warrant on him, issued by Bert Tucker. This man was W. E. Curtis, a familiar character around this part of the county last summer. Mr. Curtis canvassed both town and country taking orders for glasses, /collecting from 18 to $12 for the same and telling his customers the money would accompany the order to the Johnston Optical Co. of Detroit. After a time when those who had or­ dered glasses from him did not re­ ceive them they’found out their mon­ ey had been lured away and that he had defrauded and cheated them. A warrant was sworn out some time ago but as he made moves thru large cities Deputy Sheriff Gibson failed to capture him until last week. He was brought to Bellevue that same night and placed In the jail. Saturday he was brought before Judge Hawley where he plead guilty to the charge and was fined |60 and sentenced for 20 days with 30 days more in default of payment. Mr. Gibson took him to Charlotte In the afternoon. Another warrant is ready to be served on him as soon as he has fin­ ished this sentence and there will probably be several more.—Bellevue Gasetto.

There's no use talking, the women ought to vote. Sherd Sparks of Morgan knows it. too. Sherd is living in Hastings this winter, and the other day be wanted to make a trip to Morgan, so he told Mrs. Sparks to get ready,, while he went out. to tbe garage to'get out the car. She bundled up and waited,and waited, but Sherd didn’t show up with tbe car, so she finally went out to see what was tbe matter. Sherd had cranked the old ear until he was dripping with perspiration, had tak­ en the spark plugs out and cleaned them, used a gallon of gas in prim­ ing, and had taken the car practical­ ly to pieces and put it together again, but it just wouldn’t start. Mrs. Sparks looked it over and tola him hif key was in wrong in the coll box, but Sherd knew better, so be went over the engine again, cranked some more, had a notion to cues a bit but didn't, then cranked some more, all in vain. Finally, just to please Mrs. Sparks, be turned the key. Not that It would make any difference; he knew it wouldn't, but just to please her he would show her that that wasn't where the trouble was. Then he cranked her again and away she went, fine as silk, everything all right. And when Mrs. Sparks did­ n’t crow a bit but just got Tn tbe car and went with him without even say­ ing **I told you bo," Sherd made up his mind that women were entitled to the ballot, and we quite agree with him. No sooner does the price of butter' and eggs drop but the price of beef goes up. That's all right for our farmer friends, too, they get it either going or coming, but what about we poor guys who don't happen to have a farm? We get It too, but where Katy wore the bends. Anyway, It’s all right. When the farmer Is maxing a lot df money, we get some of it, and that’s what keeps the old press turning over once a week. And if tbe merchants don't get their bit, it’s because they don't ask for it as per­ sistently and as attractively as the mail order houses. By tbe way, did you ever notice that the fellow who wants business, and wants-it badly enough to get a hustle on and go after it in real ear­ nest, almost always gets it? - Yea, bo.

You said it. “How doth the little busy bee delight to bark and bite and gather honey all the day and stick it up at night." Conservation of dress material was urged upon women and they adopted narrow skirts. Now the railroads are finding fault because, owing to .the narrow skirts, the trains are delayed an average of seventeen additional seconds at each stopping place. What is to be done? Will the women of America set in a breadth oy must the timetables con­ tinue to suffer? No Wonder it Stopped. Curt Brundlge ot Kalamo has a watch which he has carried for many years. It wasn't an exceptionally good watch, but it kept fairly good time and he got along with It. But one day last fall It stopped dead and no amount of persuasion could in­ duce It to respond with a single tick, so Curt hung it up in the house and left it there. The other day, when the war was under discussion, it just came to Curt that the watch bad stopped at just about the time the armistice went Into effect, allowing for the difference in time, and be thought it rather strange, so he went and got the watch down and figured it out, finding that his supposition was quite correct. The watch real­ ly. had stopped on the exact day and at the exact hour when the Germans threw up the sponge and the fighting stopped. Then he opened the back case ot tbe watch and looked in and the first thing that he saw was the Inscription on the works, “Made in Germany." Representative Chas. A.

Webster’s dicTUBERCULOSIS CLINIC. • The free tuberculosis clinics that are Jo be held in Hastings, March 13-14, are entirely a service to the public; they are not a propaganda for any Individual or organisation and they are not a business proposi­ tion. The Michigan Antl-tubereulO; sis association, in charge of the clin­ ics, was established to do just such work. The organisation has no oth­ er object than to combat tuberculo­ sis in every ifay open to IL There are a number of other methods by which the campaign against the white plague is being carried on, but few of them are looked upon as more im­ portant than the holding of these free clinics. They bring the associa-tlon into close contact with the peo­ ple of the state and give opportunity for advls^g large numbers of people as to the best ways of maintaining health or of regaining it if they have become physically run down. The Michigan Anti-tnberculosls as­ sociation would like to have the gen­ eral public regard the free clinics as a public service, because that will holp the public to learn to visit these clinics freely. It Is perhaps natural to view with a tinge of suspicion a travelling health organization of this kind, the state association of­ ficials admit, because the quacks of a past generation so often used sim­ ilar methods to sell their wares. But the Michigan Anti-tuberculosis asso­ ciation has nothing to sell. It asks nothing of the public. It is not af­ ter anything for itself.

Rome Nashville People Have learned That Neglect is Dangerous. - The slightest symptom of kidney trouble is far too serious to be over­ looked. It’s the small, neglected troubles that so often lead to serious kidney ailments. That pain in the "small" of your back; that urinary irregularity; those headaches and dizzy spells; that weak, weary, wornout feeling, may be nature’s warning of kidney weakness. Why risk your life by neglecting these symptoms? Reach the cause of the trouble while there yet is time—begin treating your kidneys at once with a tried and proven kidney remedy. No need to experiment—Doan's Kidney Pills have been successfully used In thou­ sands of cases of kidney trouble for over 50 years. Doan’s Kidney Pill| are used and recommended through­ out the civillxed world. Endorsed at home. Read Nashville testimony. E. McNeil, Main St., says: "I suf­ fered from backaches and when 1 bent over It was hard to straighten again. The kidney secretions con­ tained sediment. I used two boxes of Doan's Kidney Pills and was re­ lieved. I recommend tham as a good medicine fofi kidney trouble." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy— get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. McNeil had. Foster-Mil­ burn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y.—Adv. NASHVILLE MARKETS.

Think of the happiest,and at the same time the most wide-awake and progressive family you know— the one which most closely Illus­ trates yotir Ideas ot family life. An­ alyse the secret of their success, and you will probably find it lies in their power of- co-operation and compro­ mise. No member insists in carry­ ing out his own wishes regardless of the interests and wishes ot the oth­ ers. Each claims a little and yields a little. The real basis of their life Is a spirit of mutual help and forbearance. — The community is only a larger family. To accomplish satisfactory results there must be a body of citi­ zens working together In harmony. And in order to achieve anything worth while, each man must not In­ sist too. strongly upon his own wish­ es and Ideas. When he finds that they conflict with the ideas of oth­ ers he must be prep&rd to yield the less essential details of his plan— or perhaps to attain only par*, of his object. If the public movement which he has at heart seems desirable enough to warrant it, he must be ready to support his neighbor's pet project (if It is not distinctly an unworthy one) In order to gain the neighbor's support to his own project. He must control his temper, study the personality of the man he is dealing with, use tact and consideration. These are qualities we must all cultivate to work with each other successfully and to do our part the community life. Napoleon JVho Never Reigned Napoleon II never reigned.

For some reason she hated the Grimshaws. I had seen the hate tn her eyes the day she dogged along behind the old money lender through the streets of the village when her pointing finger had seemed to say to me: "There, there la the man who has brought me to this. He has put these rags upon my back, this fire in my heart, this wild look In my eyes. Walt nnd you will see what I will put upon him." I knew that old Knte was not the Irresponsible, witless creature that people thought her to be. 1 had begun to think of her with a kind of awe as one gifted above all others. One by one the things she hud Raid of the I future seemed.to be coming true. ‘ | As we were going Into the house the schoolmaster said: "Now, Mary, you tnke this lantern and go across the street to the house o’ Dencon Blnks, the constable. You’ll find him asleep by the kitchen stove. Arrest his slumbers, but not rudely, and, when he has come to, tell him that I have news o’ the devil."

I dressed and went be­ low and found the constable In his coonskln overcoat asleep on the porch with a long-barreled gun at his side. While I stood there the schoolmaster mine around the corner of the bouse from the garden. He put his hand on the deacon's shoulder and gave him a little shake. “Awake, ye limb o’ Ihe law." he de- detail after another came out In the evidence. The facts hereinbefore alleged, and others, were proved, for the trucks fit­ ted the shoes of Amos. The young man was held and presently indicted. The time of his trial was not deter­ mined. I wrote a good hand .those days and the lending merchant of the village engaged me to post his hook* every Saturday at ten cents an hour. Thence­ forward until Christmas I gave my free days to that task.

He was going night and day, laboring for food increase.

When the earth was nearest to Jupiter, the eclipaa ap­ peared about eight and one-half min­ utes too soon for the calculations, and when the. earth was most remote from Jupiter, they were about eight and onehalf minutes too late. Roemer conclud­ ed the reason to be that It required 17 minutes for light from the planet to traverse the diameter of the earth’s orbit, which measured the difference of the distances of the earth from Jujdter. This calculation has since been verified, and proves that light travels about 186,000 miles a second. “The Psalm of Life."

The men began to hitch up their horses. So, one by one, the alelghloads left os with cheery good-bys and a grind­ ing of runners and a jingling of bells. When the last had gone Uncle Pea­ body and I went Into the house. Aunt Deel sat by the stove, old Kate by the window looking out at the falling dusk. Bow still the house seemed! “There’s one thing I forgot." I said as 1 proudly took out of my wallet the six one-dollar bills which I had earned by working Saturdays and handed three of them to iny aunt and three to my uncle, saying: “That Is my Christmas present to you. I earned It myself." I remember so well their astonish-’ went and the trembling of their hands and the look of their faces. . “It’s grand—ayes!" Aunt Deel said in Ta low tone. She rose In a moment and beckoned to me and my uncle. We followed her through the open door to the other room. “Til tell ye what I’d do," she whis­ pered. “I’d give ’em to ol’ Kate— ayes! She’s goln' to stay with us till tomorrow," . "Good Idee I" said Uncle Peabody. So I took the money out of their hands and went In and gave it to the Silent Woman. “That’s your present from me," I said. How can I forget how she held my arm against her with that loving, fa­ miliar, rocking motion .of a woman who is soothing a baby at her breast and kissed my coat sleeve? She re­ leased my arm and. turning to the win­ dow, leaned her head (jpon its alii and shook with sobs. The dusk had thick­ ened. As I returned to my seat by the stove I could dimly see her form against the light of the window. We aat in silence for a little while. Then Uncle Peabody rose and got a candle and lighted It ah the hearth. I held the lantern while Uncle Pea­ body fed the sheep and the two cows and milked—a slight chore these winlet days. “You and I are to go off to bed purty early," be said as we were going buck to the house. “Yer Aunt Deel wants to see Kate alone and git ber to tulk if she can. “I dunno but she’ll swing back Into this world ng’ln.” said Uncle Peabody when we had gone up to our little room. “I guess all she needs is to be treated like a human bein’.

THAT if you are depending upon ■gravity to separate cream froni milk, under the best contions,.you are still leaving 30 per cent of this valuable ar­ ticle in the skim milk. THAT there is no separator which will get ALL the cream. THAT most any machine will ac­ tually pay for itself in a short time, out of the amount it will get over and above the gravity way ? THAT there is a machine which will get within two-one thousandths of one per cent? And how this is possible we wish to explain to you, if you are losing cream THAT the 41 Iowa*' cream separ­ ator is the machine? Its curved disc is the whole secret.

Feed Your Family Healthy Nutritious Food If you want to avoid doctor bills, illness, inefficiency and all the dis­ agreeable things that go with them; Medical Science says most ailments are traceable either directly or inditectly to improper eating. . , It is an undisputed fact that most people car too much and not prop; erly balanced food. Sour pickles and sweet milk are a poor combination to put into a healthy stomach to say nothing of a sensitive one, but that combina­ tion has nothing on sour, soggy, indigestible bread and heavy, sticky pastries when it comes to destroying health. Look well to the flour you use when baking for flour is really the foundation of cookery, and the use of good flour will prove just as gratifying as the use of poor flour will be disappointing. One thing is certain, if you always insist on having Lily White The flour the best cooks use on hand, you will always be in a position to serve a healthy, nutritious, palatable meal. Only the very choicest wheat is used in the manufacture of LILY WHITE ’ This wheat is all cleaned three times, scoured three .times, and actu­ ally washed once before going onto the rolls for the first break. The result is a perfectly pure, clean flour. That is not alL Flour must be more than pure and clean to bake good biscuits and breads. It must ^e properly ground. Every woman knowsJt is necessary to have the pieces of potato of equal size to.insure thoroughly uniform cooking. The same principle applies to flour. The granulation must be abso­ lutely uniform to.insure uniformity in baking and without this uniform­ ity good baking results are impossible. , Why take chances when you can get LILY WHITE FLOUR and be positively assured of having the very best.

Before pladng the purse in the bands of the conductor, Kathleen de­ cided to examine its Interior for due of ownership.

These contained no desired Informa­ tion ; but as she opened the last sheet of smooth, unwritten paper, Kathleen gasped tn surprise, for looking out at her from Its protection was a very lifelike picture-—of heradf. And the remarkable thing about this picture was that she had had but one copy made from a large photograph which was her own—In order to send it to a far-away aunt To enter Kathleen’s sitting room, divided by doors from the dty boarding house parlor, waa like enter­ ing a beautiful flower-garden at the end of a dreary road.

So, this evening of the finding of the pocketbook, Nora, the housemaid, met her in the hall. And because her excited spirit must have B confidant, Into Nora’s ears Kathleen poured her tale of adventure. “I shall advertise the puree tomor­ row, Nora," she said. But the follow­ ing evening it was Nora, who burst ex­ citedly Into Kathleen's room. Violently she slapped a newspaper down on the table. “Read thaL” she demanded, point­ ing to the ’Lost’ column. And there unmistakably was a plea for the re­ turn of the purse Kathleen had found. "Suitable reward to finder." the ad­ vertisement ended. Kathleen spent much time In the wording of her re­ sponse. It was necessary that the owner must call to Identify his prop­ erty; also necessary that he describe contents before claiming. And how w as she to stand there before a strange man, while he described to her the appearance of her own photograph and his strange wish for Its possession?

When, therefore, Nora went one eve­ ning to answer the summons of the door bell, palpitatingly Kathleen lin­ gered behind the closed door of het sitting room. Distinctly she heard n man’s tread following Nora's shuf­ fling one Into the stiff parlor.

Moat of us have the “makings” but have not had the pep to put them in shape. 1 congratu­ late you both. My daddy originally, came from north of Belleville, Ontario, ran away from home when he was seventeen years of age, changed his name from Trumpour to Trumper and has been known as such until his death a year ago. I have lived in Cleveland, Ohio, for twenty-five years and in the East for eight. An. married and have a red headed wife and two red headed kiddies, Wallace, 18, and Elisabeth 15 years of age. Both good, but keep away from alarm clocks, par­ ticularly In the morning. Give my kind regards to your par­ ents, and would be more than pleas­ ed to have you write me ’letter, “ , stating just what the sensation is of’ having a buzz saw go off in your dome. Wih best wishes, I am. Sincerely, Richard F. Trumper., To Edward and Florence Trumper,, Nashville. Mich. . Oh, Yes They Did—Not. Of course, the ladies made all the mistakes that were made in the elec­, tion ballots Monday, but at that, some way, there were not many morei bad ones than there used to be before, the ladies were granted the inestima­ ble privilege of the ballot. It would be a mighty good plan to hold a, school of instruction for the men before the April election, but thei darn men are so egotistical, so( “know it all now,” that they would­. n’t any of them attend the school, and there you are, right where youj started from, wherever that was. So, we suppose we’ll have to go on year. after year, throwing out the ballots cast by those fellows who have a couple ot loaded dice rattling afound in an otherwise empty dome and who think the women don’t know enough to exercise the right of suffrage.

The evangelist has gone to the next meeting, but the influence of bis meeting will continue to be a blessing for some time, I am sure. The definite sermons brought defi­ nite results, both in regeneration and scantlfication, so we take new cour­ age and will continue to preach the old-time gospel that really saves. This meeting will be folowed by a threo-weeks’ meeting to begin May 1st, and will be conducted by W. R. Cain ot Wichita, Kansaa. He Is a singer, musician and a great gospel preacher. A good time Is expected Friday evening In the prayer meeting. Let us keep up the good attendance like It was before the revival. We almost feel ashamed to an­ nounce ourself for the meetings Sun­ day, but come and bring a friend and that will help to put new Ute In the service.

Swift & Company prove that out of every dollar the retailer pays to the packers for meat, 2 cents is for packers’ profit, 13 cents is for operating expenses, and 85 cents goes to the stock raiser; and that the prices of live stock and meat move up and down together. The live-stock raiser points to rising costs ofraising live stock. Labor reminds us that higher wages must go hand in hand with the new cost of living. No one, apparently, is responsible. No one, apparently, is benefited by higher prices and higher income. We are all living on a highpriced scale. One trouble is, that the number of dollars has multiplied faster than the quan­ tity of goods, so that each dollar buys less than formerly. Swift & Company, U. S. A. Mfh. L. B.

A long time ago in a feverish per­ iod of speculation—described by Dr. Cooley as the "years for building air castles"—the youthful state of Mich­ igan put its credit behind certain railroad and canal projects. The ex­ perience was unhappy. The state rode up to ,the vwy margin of bank­ ruptcy and'had trouble in backing away to security and easy breathing. When in 1850 a new constitution was framed it was considered neces­ sary to introduce into it the prohibi­ tion "the state shall not be a party to or interested in any work of in­ ternal improvement, nor engaged in carrying on any such work.” This prohibition, doubtless a wise •course for the time, serves today as an obstruction in the way of accept­ ing a gift of nearly eight millions of dollars which the • federal govern­ ment is anxious and eager to give us. The conditions of the gift are that the state shall add an equal amoun and apply the whole sum to the con­ struction of good roads. If we stick by the constitutional ruling of our grandfathers wo will pay >for cvqfy stone, every grain of sand and every atom of cement which goes into the projected main market roads. If we rev.se the ruling we will get the roads up to a value in ex­ cess of fifteen millions of dollars at half price. Is the offer worth taking? The legislature thinks it is.

This amendment calls for a modification of the constitutional command. It permits the state to undertake the work of road building and road maintenance as a state. It will allow us to accept our share of the federal appropriation for roads. It will help enormously in pulling the state out of the sand and the mud. We believe there' are few voters who are not in favor of good roads. But some of the voters are habitual­ ly careless about marking their bal­ lots "all the way," neglecting those matters which have not a personal or partisan flavor. And if a majority of the voters neglect to approve the proposed amendment it will be lost, and Uncle Sam's generous offer of aid and support will have been re­ buffed. So it fs imperative that the voters next month shall keep in mind the chance to get a great number of miles of high grade roads at half the mar­ ket price. We have to have these highways.

No other middle westera state comes dose to thia figure of remarkable gain in wealth. From this position—a just cause of pride—Michigan slips away to the foot of the ladder.when a showing is made of the sale of War Savings stamps. According to figures compiled hy the American Banker, s publication of standing la its field, the holding of stamps in Michigan Is only $5.75 per capita, as against $1L54 for Ohio, $12.40 for Indiana. $12.82 for Iowa, $11.50 for Missouri. $10.-42 for Wiscon­ sin, and smaller totals for Illinois and Minnesota. * Michigan’s total savings in 1914 were $96.18 per capita, and in 1918 $150.47. “This shows," says Luman W. Good­ enough, state chairman of the War Savings committee of Michigan, “that there Is no field which offers so ex­ ceptional an opportunity as our own state. This state not only has pros­ perous farms and factories where the good wages paid are proverbial, bqf ft has the saving instinct “Once the people of the state realize how good a medium of thrift War Sav* Ings stamps are, I have no doubt that ou.r totals will show a gain that will be the surprise of the 1919 campaign. All we need Is to get fee current of pnlMie support with u*." Stamp Machines In West Mlcnlgan. Grand Rapids.—War stamp selling machines, which worked so success­ fully In Detroit last year, are being distributed through western Michigan. They are similar to the cash boxes cn the pay-as-you-enter street cars. The purchaser drops in a 25-cent piece, turns a crank, and the stamp drops out. Placed in stores, restaurants and banks, these machines pick up a sur­ prising amount of coins. One depart­ ment store in Detroit, at the cam­ paign's height, averaged 5700 a week per machine. Grand Rapids stores and other business concerns are putting them in rapidly. Factory Societies Forming. Detroit.—Probably tpe best organ­ ized industrial plant In the state for the war savings campaign la the Hud­ son Motorcar Company, with twenty­ eight active War Savings societies In operation. Growth of the member­ ship tn these societies has been rapid. The Hudson campaign has been con­ ducted with emphasis on the fact that not one Is asked to join unless he does so of his own free will. De­ troit’s other industries—of which there are 1.000 employing over 100 men each —are swinging Into line. High School Campaign Go'ng Well.

Dear Vern:— Received your most welcome let­ ter. dated Dec. .16. on January 12. which is very' good time. It found me well and still anxious to get back to the U. S. A. I suppose you are' buying fur this winter. Did you go up north this last fall or summer? Well, 1 didn't go last fall, but I will next if 1 am in the States, and well. 1 saw by The News which I received the 11th. that Ray Gibson went north and was running an engine In a camp. I suppose wages are sure high up there, as help must be awful scarce. I guess it is scarce all over; I know it is here. . Well, we have moved to a new vil­ lage by the name of Etch. It is a small place, and we are doing guard duty here. I see that John Dull has come back to the U. S. A. wounded. He went on the same front that I did. and was In the company on my right. Don't know tHtrh 1 will get back. We are having nice weather here; no snow anil it Is quite warm. It sure seems strange to me, as where I was last year the snow was two feet deep by this time. Wish I had one ot those 150 lb. deer .for my supper; it would certainly taste good. Well,. Vern, I have written about all I can for this time, but when I get home I will come over and see you and tell you all I have seen. From your friend, Dayton L. Smith, Co. B., 7th Infantry. IRE DETAILS AT LAST. A Bolshevist was recently prevail­ ed upon to elucidate the doctrines of bolshevism. He replied with the usual generalities about the aboli­ tion of wealth, etc., and being asked to give details of the program be ex­ plained that money must be abolish­ ed. " There would be a substitute, of course. We were not to return to the system of exchange and barter. There would be a certain kind of It is time for a nice new spring currency, but it could not be ac­ hat with * nice gay spring counte­ cumulated. A man who did any work would get a ticket at the end nance under IL of each working day, representing his remuneration. It would have a date stamped upon it, and its validi­ ty would end in 48 hours. He could either spend it in that time or lose it, and In this way the saving of money would be impossible. There would, therefore be no capi­ tal. ’ Every sturdy community is large­ ly a community of home-owners— not rent payers. But try to imaging a man buying a house with a bunch of stamped and dated tickets which will all expire In 48 hours. Multiply this condition by the number of the population and you* can visualize one of the funny features which we shall see when bolshevism achieves order out of choas—when. In a word, it be­ comes systematized. It is equally easy to Imagine- any kind of njstem under bolshevist Merle Elton Hinkley, aon of Charles and Clara Hinkley, was born in K alamo November 18; 1893. and died at Camp Custer October 38. 1918, being at that time A member ot the 37th Co. and 10th Bn., a soldier in the United States army. Merle was a member of the Young Men's "Sunday school class of the Evangelical church in Nashville, and is remembered by the only gold star on Its service flag. His death came as a great shock to his many friends, and all felt that a promising young, lite had sudden­ ly been called out of the world. A young man of good habits and ot high Ideals came to the end of his development, but we have reasons to believe that his full development will continue bn through the ages of eternity. A letter signed by Wm. H. Han­ num, Secretary of the National War work Council of the Y. M. G. A., is at hand, in which he says: “Merle Hinkley’s name Is on our “War Roll” of Allegiance to Christ, and he had recently accepted Christ as his Savior and Lord." Merle’s body waa laid to rest in the Kaiamo cemetery under military honors on October 31, 1918. Those left to mourn their loss are four sisters, Mrs. Harold Hess of Nashville, Mrs Robert Hubbard of Colorado Springs, Col., Mrs. Hugh Shepard ot Washington and Mrs. Clarence Shepard ot .Wheeler, Va., also three brothers, Fred of Nash.vile, Lqe of Lake City, Mich., and Howard of Portland, Oregon. A flag of service bears a star of*blue, The emblem fit of truth's eternal light Attest of youth now gone to strive for right. And risk his lite for home and me and you.

UNIVERSAL TRACTOR it rh^ <a'th With two 14-inch bottoms, under average plowing conditions, the new Moline universal Tractor, Mode! D, plows 9 acres in 10 hours, qs much as ordinary 3-plow machine. _ The su­ perior efficiency of the Moline Uni­ versal is due to its higher speed, 3% miles an hour, two bottoms at 3% miles giving the same number of plcw-miks as three bottoms at 2l/i miles. Plowing at 3% miles an hour give* ideal results, the ground being pul­ verized more thoroughly than at slower speeds, with less air space. Tough sod that cannot be turned at all at 2% miles an hour is plowed with ease. Perfect work is assured with tha • Moline Universal through the advan­ tageous position of tfte operator, who sits on the implement, where be must sit in order to do good work Tho Moline Universal is easily handled, turns short, and backs as readily as it goes forward. ‘ , Waste of time in the field is elimi­ nated and the tractor kept at produc­ live tive worn work aa maximum maximum numucr number ux of koan > d,y thma<* > complete electrie .--irt.ni >ad lightitw .ystera. The Moline Universal is the only tractor thus regularly equipped. n The secret of the speed and power of the Moline Universal lies in iti perfected overhead-valve engine and two-wheel construction. The engine develops 18 horsepower at the belt, and 9 at the drawbar, every ounce of which is available for pull There are no dead wheels to drag along that only carry weight and steer. For plowing in extremely soft ground, the Moline Universal is eq-iipped with a differential lock that enables the two drive Wheels to be iodeed together, doubling their ^-til­ ing power. When plowing the land wneel is raised so that the tractor is level. The wheel is verv easily and quickly raised or lowered. The light weight of the Moline Universal, 3380 pounds, and its high clearance, 29% indies, make it adapt­ ed for all other field work, besides plowing. With it one man can plant <0 acres a day, cultivate 90 acres a day, harvest 25 acres a day, or do any other work with eonal speed.

The old idea that brndnesa is get­ ting the better of your neighbor la not only “bad buslneas," but nonsense. Business is not getting the belter of but doing the best for your neighbor —and yourself. If business Is not mu­ tually profitable, It is mutually de­ structive. My neighbor’s prosperity helps mine and mine his. When that old pernlciotls notion is finally explod­ ed the millennium of business will be at hand, the era of universal peace between capital and labor.—Lord Lev­ erbuI me.

Linda in ‘the old houm wedged between two tencmenta. Long year* ago ahe had been the envied daughter of one of the town’* wealth­ iest men. when the gray stone bouse was an imposing residence to t>e point­ ed out with pride. But now the bushes tn the dingy garden were dust covered, and the twinkling lights of the tene­ ment window* seemed to be laughing down at the queer old house below. Linda, living on when her people had all gone, seemed tG take as.. years passed, the air of the lonely bouse, reserved, living within herself. And though Linda was no longer young, yet was she still not old enough to, put aside the dream* ot youth; and per­ haps had she nut been like the house between the tenement* — removed from life about, her—Linda's dreams might have come true. At first sentiment would not allow her to joirt from tha home ahe had always known, then selling bad be­ come an Impossibility. For one dar­ ing moment Linda had thought of renting her rooms to make homes for business women, which at least would bring companionship beneath the si­ lent roof. But her long sheltered na­ ture shrank from the intrusion. There was still no actual need, so the idea was abandoned. Before the grate fire beneath the white marble mantel, Linda sat, pos­ sessed of an aching longing for the things that were gone. Then her idle gaze fell upon the marker of a book which she bud taken from the table. "A recipe for happiness,” she read. “Do something for somebody quick.” Linda smiled. It sounded very sim­ ple, to do something for somebody, but her best intentloned effort usually ended in disappointing failure. Girls, from the tenements to whom she bed made herself acquainted and whom ■the had invited in for social evenings, rppeared to find evenings in Linda's home anything but social, excusing themselves at an early hour, and‘ never returning. From the shadowy veranda now came a persistent mewing walk “A lost kitten," murmured Linda, "perhaps It may help to do some­ thing for a lost kitten," so she opened .’he heavy front door to let the crea­ ture In. It was a grateful white kit­ ten, hunger was forgotten in the Joy of nestling with contented purrings In Linda’s lap. Then suddenly at the front door came wild knocking, pound­ ing as with two Impatient fists. When the little woman again opened the door a child stepped Into the room, a beautiful bit of a girl with tangled golden curls. "Give me," she demanded, my kitten. I followed It over here. I saw you take it In from the veranda. Give my kitten buck." “Of course, dear." Linda agreed. "Maybe you didn't mean to keep IL" she amended, “but every one over at the tenement tries to steal my Fluffle away. Fluff’s all I’ve got since Daddy went to war.” Linda knelt before the Are gathering child and kitten Jpto her arms. "You live over there?" she asked. | “Who takes care of you?” “Mrs. McGee promised Daddy that she’d look after me.” the precocious one replied. ‘?but mostly I’m alone. 'Cept every night when Mr. Cameron comes to see me. He promised Daddy he would. You know Mr. Cameron?” Linda shook her bead. "He’s the minister,” the child confided, “down at th^mlsslon. Daddy likes Mr. Cam­ eron. He was good to my mother be­ fore she died and he's good to me. He Is good to everybody. Bat I couldn’t live In Mr. Cameron's bouse whem. Daddy went away, because it’s just two rooms, you see, back of the mission. The old lady who cooks for Mr. Cameron don’t like children. If he hud a wife it would be different, he told Daddy so.” The child withdrew from Linda’s clasp, her lodging eyfe wandered re­ gretfully about the cozy room. I’m sorry I’Vv got to’ go," she said. “It’s so—nice and pretty here and you— you’re nice and pretty too." Linda flushed with strange pleasure in the childish compliment She laughed a happy little laugh straight back from her girlish years. “Why can’t you stay, dear?” ahe asked. “it’s the time Mr. Cameron always comes to see me." the child told her. “I tapped," a pleasant voice neat* by raid, "bat you did not hear. And as the door was open, and I could se« my little charge within, you may par­ don my intrusion.” “Why here la Mr. Cameron, come for me, now," the child cried' gleefully. "Let us stay a while. In this pretty room with the pretty lady.” So while the clock ticked and mo­ ments flew miraculously, the old room seemed to regain a glow of joy from the past with the man and the wom­ an, the child and the kitten sitting be­ fore its fire. And the earnest man. whoee kindly eye* read human nature well, spoke of the needs of this moth erieaa child, while Linda, flushing « little, showed him the text of hej book mark, and assured him of hei readtneoa to respond to the need*. So through the long, allent hath echoes dow the laughter of a child.

A Good Time to Buy Play Safe! SEE QUALITY! SET MY PRICESI Seth I. Zemer Revival Meetings are in progress at the Evangelical Church Next Sunday evening the preacher will speak bn “A DEVIL IN A CHURCH. ★★★★★★★★★★★★★ ATTENTION, WOMEN! Are you the woman who has not yet registered? Are you the woman depending on your neighbors and friends to protect your boy from the evils ot the open saloon? Saloons take boys and we all know the men they make of them. Are you a wo­ man, who doesn’t take interest enough In any boy in Michigan to register be­ fore .March 29 and cast your ballot April 7, against the wine and beer amendment? Have you studied that amendment? If so, you see that it not only re­ peals the state-wide prohibition law but the county option law making townships, cities and villages the un­ it, a thing we have fought for years. The state legislature now has power to regulate the handling of liquor and to pass dry laws In harmony with national laws; if this amend­ ment carries they will have hardly any power at all. No mention is made of any restrictions the legis­ lature ought to place upon Importa­ tion, transportation, use, giving away, or keeping In private resi­ dences of these liquors. Treating will be lawful,, no drunkard can be posted, cellars may be filled, riuitcases and automobiles must be let alone even though people know they are filled with booze. Does anyone believe for one min­ ute that nothing stronger than beer or wine will be sold In these saloons? We are not so gullible. We have had sad experience with the law­ breaking element that runs saloons. Policemen, when they were doing their duty, have always watched and restricted the liquor traffic. If this amendment carries there will be no restrictions and no means of making watching effective. Why the word "reasonably’’ In connection with the little the legis­ lature may do under the amendment? Who is to decide what is reasonable, the brewers and saloon keepers? This amendment if carried will go into effect May 7, 1919. The state legislature plans to adjourn before that time. It will be January 1921« before any regulating can be done unless a special session is called. All that time Michigan would be without any restriction or regulation of the most unscrupulous traffic ever turn­ ed loose. Murders, robberies and assaults would increase, thousands of boys and girls started on the road to ruin, and many a family pauperized by booze thrown back upon the tax­ payers. If you women never cast another ballot Michigan needs yours this spring on the side of law and order. Mra. Maud Glasner. Menno Wenger and family were called to Caledonia Friday by the serious illness of hfe father. Isaac Wenger, who died Saturday evening. The Wengers returned home Monday morning, going to Caledonia again on Wednesday to attend the funeral. Cool winds and sunshine have done much the past, two days toward dry­ ing up the roads, but they will stand a lot of it yet. A lot ot money will have to be spent on the highways thia spring to make them fairly pass­ able. It has been an exceptionally hard winter and spring on most of the roads. .

It Is Ordered that the 22nd day of April. A D. M at tw n'rli-k t» the forenoon, at said DTObata SPILLS DIAM ONI Shall it be made legal for the state of Michigan to borrow money to build roads? Are you In favor of a measure that will make It possible for the legislature to increase or cut the salary of Judges while they are in office? Shall the sale of wines, beer, ales and porter be made lawful again in Michigan?” ' It will be upon these questons, that voters in Michigan will be asked to give {heir decision when they go to the polls on April , 7. All three questions will be printed upon a sin­ gle ballot, copies of which have'al­ ready been received. On the sample ballot received from the Secretary of State, the good roads amendment Is placed first, the salary amendment second, and the wine and beer amendment third. The good roads amendment has this title "Vote on proposed amendment to the con­ stitution relative to authorizing the state to borrow money to be used for highway purposes and issue bonds therefore/' The question of salar­ ies for Judges has been put in this form "Vote on proposed amendment to the constitution relative to the in­ crease or decrease of salaries of pub­ lic officers”. The heading of the proposed wine and beer amendment, which probably will come last on the ballot, reads "Vote on proposed amendment to the constitution rela­ tive to the importation, transporta­ ton, manufacture, buying. selling, etc., of cider, wines, beer, ale and porter.” On each of these voters will be asked to vote either "yes” or "no”. If a vote of "yes" Is cast tor the "good roads" act, it will mean en­ dorsement of better highways for Michigan. -If a vote of "no” Is cast on this question, it will mean that the voters hot in favor of better roads. If a voter believes that the legisla­ ture should bo authorized to in­ crease or cut the salaries of judges while the Judges are in office, it will be necessary to vole "yes”. If op­ posed to extending such authority to the legislature, the ballot must be marked "no". In the case of the proposed wine and beer amendment, if the voter is In favor of light wines, beer and cider in Michigan, the ballot must be marked "yes". ^If In favor of hav­ ing prohibition remain In force, the ballot must be marked "no”. The general impression locally and elsewhere in the state is that the amendments for good roads and giv­ ing the legislature authority to regu­ late the salaries of Judges while they are in office will be adopted, and that for wine and beer defeated.

"Miss Replogle's management of the grades in their relation to the normal, her methods in her own class room, and in demonstrating to pupils how to teach showed that she had a splendid grasp of the problems In­ volved. The later success of the pu­ pils she trained also speaks well for the methods she employed. All her work reflected a clear and compre­ hensive. knowledge of the entire school system. “The many problems arising in connection with the government and proper conduct of a girls’ dormitory require rare skill and judgment.

Glasgow SOLONS OF STATE PLEDGE SELVES TO LIMIT ROAD BONDS Lansing, March 27.—By pledging themselves not to authorize the issue , of Highway bonds.in a sum of more than Five Million Dollars a year, the House* of Representatives and the state Senate have given irrefutable evidence that a vote for the Good Roads amendment by the people at the election A^ril 7 cannot saddle a Fifty million dollar bonded debt upon Michigan's taxpayers. The pledge given by the Michigan legislature was in the shape of resolu­ tions unanimously adopted by both me House and the Senate and was in­ spired by the fact that many of the legislators’ constituents had gained the erroneous impression that the con­ stitutional amendment with Its Fifty -Million Dollar figure of limitation in­ volved an immediate bond issue ot Fifty Million Dollars. The State senate was first with the resolution. State Senator William Connelley, chairman of the Highways oommltteo of that body and author of the resolution which was adopted early in the session and put the Good Roads amendment up to the Deonla for ratification, was responsible for the Introduction of the resolution which pledged the legislature not to exceed Five Million a year in bonds. Rep. John Deprato of the House committee on Roads and Bridges, followed the senate’s lead. „ The resolution not only pledged the state's law makers to keep the bond issue inside of 85.000,000 a year, but calls upon every individual mem­ ber to go home to his constituents and explain the true meaning of the amendment to be ratified at the Spring election and educate the people as to the Immediate need for the machinery which will permit the people to use Michigan's credit to obtain a com­ prehensive system of main market highways at once and pay the bill while using the good roads. The Representatives and Senators will ex­ plain at every possible opportunity that this is the one means by which the roads may be made to pay for themselves and they will go into the matter of Federal Aid. Thousands- of voters will learn through their representatives in the legislature that the government has put up nearly Seven Million Dollars State Senator-William Connelley, Grand Haven, author cf the Good Roada amendApril 7. • states. ,To get this Seven Million, Michigan must put cp a like sum. It is pointed out by the representatives of the legislature that, to get thta Seven Million, the state either muse impose a direct tax or issue bonds and to spread a direct tax big enough to cover Uncle Sam’s offer of Federal aid for the ensuing two years would mean too great a burden. It will be ex­ plained by the Representatives and Senators that unless Michigan meets Uncle Sam’s dollarfor-dollar offer ot Seven Millions, the money will go m other states and Michigan people then will be contributing to the building of Improved highways in other and HMgr progressive states. jacksonvilLephilosophy The-pln in the hands of the small boy Is usually bent on mischief.

I am in receipt of a letter ftom * friend in the western part of the county, stating that the report is be­ ing circulated that I had purchase* no bonds or stamps. This report­ is absolutely untrue, as anyone cam find by inquiring of Mr. H. G. Haye*^ cashier of the Hastings National bank, cr of Mr. W. N. Chidester, chairman of the Barry County* Loan Committee. . I have War Savings certlficatfe< purchased in Hastings. Anyone can call at the Loyalty League headquarters in Hastings an4 find out how much I contribute,, or anyone else contributes, each year tw that league. I had charge of two auxiliaries for­ doing knitting work for the soldier boys, one auxiliary of about 20 befn^ of Normal school girls, and the oth*-er the "Westminster Girls", an erganixation of about 30, connected with the Presbyterian church in Hast­ ings. Every cent of mone? that I couldf afford was invested in bonds and stamps and for the Barry County Loyalty League, and any effort I may' have made for the soldier boys "was alF dorie in Hastings and for the benefit of Barry county. • I dislike to make these statements* in a public way, but feel called up­ on to do it in justice to myself, and invite anyone interested to make the* fullest investigation as to the truth­ fulness of the above.

Due to its high clearance, 20^6 inches, the Moline Universal Tractor is perfectly adapted for cultivating, enabling one man to cultivate corn or other row crops, two rows at a time, at the rate of from 14 to 20 acres a ^The Moline Universal attaches di­ rect to the cultivator, and forms a compact unit with it that is con­ trolled from the seat of the imple­ ment. where the operator must sit to do good work, dodging individual bills by shifting the cultivator gangs with his feet. The position of the operator direct­ ly behind the right wheel of the trac- ahead. All he has to do is to keep the right wheel of the tractor a cer­ tain distance from the outside row and the whole outfit will go properly. An electrical governor permits the engine to be slowed down to a snail's pace for turning at the ends of rows, or for cultivating the first time over. The outfit is earilv st< turned, and does less ing than horses. The cultivator has many features which make its operation extremely easy and effective. All who have operated this outfit express surprise and delight at the ease and simplicity of operation. Cultivating, however, is only one of all the farm operations the Moline Universal can do. It is light, but has more than enough power to pul! two because all its weight is available for traction. The Moline Universal works to full capacity throughout the entire year. That's why it really replaces horses and enables one man to farm more land than was ever before pos­ sible. It is the universal tractor that docs all farm work and solves tbe farm help problem. There art many other features of this machine that will interest you. a & Sons NORTHEAST CASTLETON. Miss Vesta Gutcbess spent Friday evening with her cousin.

Sleeper anrwer. tbe que»tk Michigan Voter, are aaking in a categorical review the Good Road, proposition to be submitted io t people at the Spring election. April 7. (By Gov. A. What is the Good Roads proposal 1 submitted to the voters of Michigan at the Spring election April 7th? An amendment to the constitution of Michigan to authorize the Legis­ lature to issue bonds from time to time for a state-wide system ot main market highways and to assure Mich! gan of its full share of Federal aid money. Then It fit not a >50,000,000 bond issue which the people are asked to ratify? No. Under the terms ot the amend­ ment, >50,000,000 is put as a limit beyond which the Legislature never must go. Will the >50.000.000 in bonds be Is­ sued at once? They will not. The State Highway Department is authority for tbe state­ ment that about >5,000,000 will be is­ sued the first year, another >5,000,000 the next year, but even this is under the control of the people through their representatives in the Legislature. What assurance has tbe tax-payer that the whole >50,000,000 will not be Issued at once,? The ratification ot the amendment qnly gives authorization for the issue ot bonds, After that, the Legislature must act and Michigan’s legislators never will impose a greater burden than will meet with the approval of their constituents. Why issue, bonds? Why not raise money by a direct tax? If Michigan is to’have the some >7.000,000 the United States Government has set aside as the Wolverine State’a portion of-Mw"Federal aid fund, we miBt-mptch this sum. dollar for dollar. To do this by direct tax would impose too great a burden for only a two year period. By issuing bonds, the money can be had, the roads bx^llt at once and the burden of the expense spread over a period of twenty-five or thirty years. Are there any other reasons? Yes. We should bond for good roads because under this system of flnanc ing, we can use the highways and let them help pay for themselves. It’s just like the deferred payment plan on farm machinery. Another reason is found tn tbe fact that generations to follow will have the use and bene­ fits from these permanent highways. Why should they not help bear the burden? What assurance has Michigan that it will receive >7.000.000 in Federal aid for road building? Congress has appropriated >200,000,000 and President Wilson has ap­ proved the bill. The United States Department of Agriculture baa conput. ed Michigan’s share of the new and old Federal aid appropriation for the ensuing two years as >6.701317-27 Michigan must provide a like amount. What if Michigan fails? The money then will bo apportioned among other states and Michigan peo­ ple, through their share of the burden of federal governmental expense will be helping other, more progressive states to build their highways. Will there be more Federal aid for road improvement tn Michigan? Yes. The sum of >7,000,000 for th® next two years is just a beginning. The war has opened* Uncle Sam’s eyes to the need for Good Roads. . He re­ cognizes his own respoiiJiIbliny in the development of highways such as won the war in Europe and made ordinary road traffic the mqsl Important factor in the upbuilding not only of the local community,, but tbe nation. Where will the money be spent? Under the new Federal aid appro­ priation measure, the application U> so broad that it may be used on any Michigan main market highway. Who will be responsible for an eco­ nomical expenditure of the money? State Highway Commissioner Frank ■ - _will be unc|er F. Rogers. His -work the supervision of the United States Department of Agriculture. Will there be a large portion devoted to fancy salaries and overhead ad­ ministrative expenses? No. The State Highway Department has a record extending over a long term of years for having spent less than four per cent of its appropriation in administrative or overhead expen­ ses. With a larger volume of work, this will be decreased to three per cent or less. Compare this with twen­ tyJour per cent In New York and con­ sider for a moment that no other state attempts to do the work tor less than ten per cent Will the whole of the maximum in road bonds sued? . Yes, but not under ten State Highway Department has an­ nounced that it will be impracticable to use more than >5.000.009 in any one year. if the amendment is ratified, mu_-t Michigan begin paying interest at E. Sleeper.) How la this figured? On th, but, ot M.IXM.M0 U bond, each year for a period of ten years. What would be the actual cost each year for interest charges and a sink­ ing fund to retire the bonds ax they tali due? ’ The coat of Interest and staking fund paymenu under thia plan would be >2,876,364 per annum. This figures out to between slxty-saven and slxtyelght cents on each >1,000 of assessed valuation. Are these cost figures accurate? Yes, and no. They are based on the present valuation of Michigan. The assessed valuation will increase ma­ terially with each passing year with the result that the cost per >1,000 at assessed valuation will be materially reduced. It cannot be increased. Will the proposed system of main market highways connect an large Cities? • Yea. Will It reach every county? * What proportion of the .state’s high, way traffic will this system care for? Better than seventy per cent What type of pavement will be used? The plan calls for permanent road­ ways. This means the type ot paving will be determined by the traffic of the present and the needs of future deve­ lopment. How will the program help the labor situation. Half of every'dollar spent will go to labor. Workmen, horses and equip­ ment in Che community where the work is proceeding will have first call. Will the program help careUor re­ turned soldier boys who are out ot employment and who have no regular trades? Yes. This is the chief reason for the liberal Federal aid appropriation. The Department of Agriculture has asked for and received the assurance of the Michigan and other State High­ way departments that the work will proceed without delay to help solve the problem of the unemployed. Why is the U. S. Postoffice Depart­ ment interested In road development? Testa of postal expreaa service has demonstrated its superiority over rail­ way mall even for long hauls and ex­ periments on a large scale over Im­ proved highways have shown such re­ markable earuing.t that the depart­ ment looks to the development of this service along eventually to put the basis. Good Roads also are needed for motor feeders in connection with the development of aerial mall service. May women vote on the Amend­ ment? Those who have registered. Who have Indorsed the project? President Wilson, the United States Post Office Department, the United States Department of Agricultural, Michigan’s congressmen and United States senators, the Michigan Legis­ lature, State Association of Supervi­ sors, most of the Boards of Supervi­ sors, State Federation of Womens? Clubs, State Federation of Labor, the governor, all state offices, the Repub­ lican and Democratic parties, boards of commerce In every city, the Rotartans, the fanner organizations, the Kiwanls clubs, automobile clubs, the steam and interurban railways, prac­ tically all city, county and township officers, the bench and bar of Michi­ gan and practically every prominent man and woman in the state. Will road work under the provisions of the amendment affect the improve­ ment and maintenance operations on other than main market highways? Our school is enjoying a week's Yes.

Oh,' my. brain is in a muddle rnd my head is In a whirl As I study on the government as I try to knit and purl For you see that al’ the men folks, now that women have the vote. Are expecting uo to le&rn things they've never learned by rote. They say«thc.roads are muddy and they nped ten millS>n qu:ck, Tho I’ve noticed former springs and falls the mud was just as thick; The judges need more salaries and shorter working hours (Now I’ve boon told one hour a day has taxed their mental powers.) • We have to plead and argufy against the beer and wine And figure down high prices 'till we can afford Jo dine; And it is. "Lord. bEws the women," from all the democrats, 'publicans and socialists who used to call us ’’cats." They say we must prepare to run universities and schools, ' Agricultural colleges and expensive homes for fools; i he world has been awaitin’ a thousand years or ao For women to wake up and vote to blip to make it go. I start to read the paper and right on the front page I’m told that i should study out the- roper minimum wage; And see that girls and women, whe widow, maid or wife, Have enough money paid them to live a decent life. We must figure on the railroads, if to oyrn or regulate, Fight for a short ballot, and help to save the state. Reform marriages and divorces, and drive out other ills Man has said -we'd always have, whatever woman wills. It’s lor am to undertake the unfit to sterilize, -a That feelife-minds, insane or badness decr^se ’til| it dies; And writers all inform us we need mother’s pension laws, To keep poor hungry children from poverty’s cruel jaws. Equal pay for equal work is surely a just demand. Abolition of child labor in every class and land. . ; A schooling that will fit-a graduate to earn his bread— So we study and we plan ’till we wish that we were dead. Then a socialist paper is thrown in our front door Describing how free press, free assembly and free speech are no more; While social purity magazines clamor louder every day For all women to arise and put prostitution out the way. The tax questions are perplexing and must be settled soon, Wouldn’t it be pleasant then to live upon the moon? We wonder if they’d ask us there to study all the night On some governmental question and then to write and write. For every mail brings to us a pitiful appeal For this bill and the other bill all for the nation’s weal; “Send four hundred petitions each with one thousand names Write a list of voters from all townships, roads and lanes.’’ “Please write to every congressman not later than this week And ask him for my pet measure to kindly stand and speak; Telegraph the committee that Is'holding up our bill Say if they don’t pass it you women one day will.’’ “Telegraph the president a man here’s out of work. Uncle Sam must hire him no matter how he shirks; He’ll take eighty cents an hour, his neighbor wants a dollar Else bow can a man ever eat or buy him a clean collar?” Better send Mr. Wilson a good long scathing letter * We’ll elect a new president if h doesn’t do It better. “Why don’t you stop the peace talk and straighten things at home? We ail feel patriotic but senators do roam." “We know you have some work to do but your discipline is lame, If other nations pick on you your answer Is too tame; We’re mailing you a copy of Washington’s address And president Munroe’s doctrine, right new off the press." "Our milkman's selling us poor milk, it sours over night. There’s dirt but hardly any cream. It doesn’t taste just right Some babe may die of eating It. my child may do the same Why don't you ever tend to it, the government's to blame?" "My telephone is out of sorts, the aggravating thing, I cannot hear my neighbors talk nor even central ring; The company is getting rich.-their service but a name, j I think you'd better see to that; the government's to blame.” r "The railroad trains are running late, the jitney fare's too high, The butter doesn't keep at all. mo filling in the pie. The grocer’s overcharging us, the picture show is tame, Our coal and Ice are both too high, we know you are to blame.” j The weather’s awful changeable, it doesn’t suit us now Your weather bureau needs a rest its time for men to plow, We want the soldiers to%ome home all on the next big boat • If you’ll look after these few things you may get my future vote. There’s notbing'right at home at all while you’re loafing over there, About your foolish league*of nations we neither know nor care. So come home, Mr. Wilson, let’s teffd .our own affairs,” That’s just what we’ll write to'him so he won’t put on airs. So, dear sisters, I’ve been thinking, now that it’s too late. It’s some job to be a voter and have to run the state; We’ll need to be an Atlas and shoulder up the earth So women won’t have any time to give the children birth. O dear, it is too hard for me to have to work and think, I wonder If the ballots will be becoming blue or pink; Sometimes I wish the men folks had been qualified to rule It’s too bad this whole long jumble is just an April Fool.

BROWN The Penslar Store Castleton Township. In the first precinct of Castleton township 789 voters presented them­ selves and cast their ballots, and there was no disturbance of any kind, no challenging of votes and no argu­ ments. More women than men vot­ ed, but nobody bothered to keep an accurate count between the sexes. On the township ticket there were 276 straight republican tickets vot­ ed, 243 splits. The democrats cast 104 straight and 99 splits. There were 75 ballots without an indicated head, and about forty ballots were thrown out entirely because of no matklng. . A goodly proportion of /he spill­ ing on the repubican ticket was on the head of the ticket and in the first precinct Dave Knnx, democratic can didate for supervisor, led E. B. Townsend, the republican candidate by four votes. The second precinct, however, gave Townsend 26 majority, so that he lands the laurels by a ma jority of 22 in the two precincts. On the state and county ticket the first precinct showed \ 389 straight republican ballots and 99 which had been mutilated. The democrats voted 166 straight and only crucified 27. There were 11 straight prohi­ bition votes and 7 splits. The so cialists tell by the wayside, polling but one straight vote and three splits. The vote on state candidates ranged from 486 to 503 republican and from 190 to 210 democrat. On Judge of Probate, Judge Faulkner, republican, had 510 and Bates, dem­ ocrat 196. For County School Com­ missioner Miss Miller, republican, bad 437 and Miss Replogic, demo­ crat, 281. On the amendments, the greatest surprise came on the vote op the salaries amendment, which was prob­ ably due to a lack of understanding of the merits of the proposition. The vote in favor of it was but 184, while 457 were against IL W’e did nicely on the good roads proposition, casting 456 votes in favor of it and only 236 against it. The proposed wine and beer ameildment was the one which got a good and proper poke in the eye, there being but 14 2 in favor of it, while the vote against it was 576. First Precinct. Supervisor: E.

The demand for trucks for com­ mercial use THIS YEAR is greater than ALL the trucks built in this country for private use In the last FOUR YEARS. Just as the fright carrying business of the railroads entirely dwarfed the passenger car­ rying business, so the'demand for the freight carrying motor truck Is beginning to RUN AWAY from the passenger carrying automobiles. It is becoming so that a man -CAN have a pleasure car If he feels he can afford It, but he’MUST have a FLEET' of Motor Trucks In hls business or he cannot hope to equal the low costs of hls competitors. M the Chicago and New York Motor Truck Shows Just concluded the Truck Company whose stock we offer you was besieged by Truck dealers who sought to place orders for more trucks for THIS YEAR than the company bus manu­ factured In the last THREE years, and their output has been large. Due to the rapid growth of the Motor Industry it has been custom­ ary for concerns with large earn­ ings to deciare stock dividends to stockholders. Thus a company You CAN’T turn the with 10.000 shares of common stock and net earnings of $3,000,000 clock b^ek ten years and for the year would he able to pay buy the original issue of a cash dividend of $3,000 to each owner of $1,000 of common stock.

Management In the Federal Motor Truck Company $1,000 stock grew In six years to $30,000 stock and earned $12,180 cash dividends. What the automobile concerns did In the way of large earnings the successful Motor Truck Companies are JUST BEGINNING TO DO. Its management consists of mtn prominent in the Motor Industry since its Inception, successful In the extreme and known throughout the nation. They are leaders In the Industry and are particularly well known to the best dealer through­ out the country, whose confidence they possess through many years of fair dealing and mutual profit. The department "heads are men who have spent their lifetimes In quantity production and the work­ men are of a grade so superior that it would he difficult to duplicate this organization. The war has revolutionized the use of Motor Trucks and the move­ ment of freight, raw materials and merchandise. Every one knows that Motor Trucks wnn the war, that their wonderful mobility, strength, lasting qualities and great carrying capacity enabled us to arm, equip and maintain over three million men with unheard-of speed and that the armies and peoples of ail Europe learned tbe need and value of Motor Trucks Just as we learned it What few of the gener­ al public know Is that the vast, but exactly tabulated, records of war use show that a horse or mule CON­ SUMES twenty-five per cent as much as It PRODUCES. A stand­ ard Motor Truck consumes LESS than ONE PER CENT as much as It produces, and this consumption Includes operation, maintenance, repairs and replacements. More­ over, the life of a Motor Truck working at full capacity every day is twice as long as the life of a horse or mule working at full ca­ pacity every day. During the war horses working at maximum ca­ pacity for ten consecutive days were often killed by the strain of those ten days. There are many like Billy Grove who part of ths state, It Will pay yon to are not machinery manu­ facturing countries.

Europe has never learned quantity production of auAmerica, Africa and Asia Type of Truck. The company manufactures a one and one-half ton truck, and records show that 76% of ALL merchant users and 90% of ALL farmers re­ quire this type of truck. In addi­ tion the company manufactures a powerful, sturdy, short coupled clwHKis which pulls two-wheeled bodies of three and one-half and five ton capacity.

Everything seemed to go wrong. Under such conditions a man does not lay aside his work with any de­ gree of satisfaction. ' On his way home his mind is going over the difficulties encountered and he finds himself dissatisfied with pretty nearly everything and everybody. He’s got the Blues. Not so with the family. The youngsters, looking for lather, spy him a block or more away and there’s a nfighty footrace to see who can reach him first. He sees them coming.

Well, Billy has been ship­ ping for several years to a commis­ sion man at Pittsburgh and mostly he has been pretty well sat is fled, but sometimes he didn’t get back what money he thought he ought to have and he ijad about decided that per­ haps his broker wasn’t just the squarest guy in the whole universe, so last week he paid the expenses and had the bank wire to ,t Pitts­ burgh bank for the name of the best and most reliable commission man in the smoky city. And the ainnkr city bank kindly replied at once and gave them the name of the same guy that Billy had always done business with. And all it cost Billy was about two or.three dollars. Just Another Greenback, ‘Percy. Percy Penfold—you know Percy, don’t you? Well, he has his mind on that old creamery most of the time. And the other morning about three o’clock he heard the low water alarm on the boiler screaming and he flew out of his snug, warm bed and beat it for the creamery, with­ out waiting to put on his collar and tie, or much of anything else, be­ cause he didn’t want the boiler to bust and blow him out of a job or anything like that or get dirt in the butter. And when he got over to the creamery It wasn’t the low water alarm or anything like that, but just a nice little frog singing his rounde­ lay to his little green sweetheart ov­ er In the swamp, and Percy went back to his couch and shivered and went right back to sleep.

The Nashville Co-Operative associ­ ation will handle wool this year di­■ rect, this having been definitely set­ tled. Arrangements have been prac­ tically completed whereby George Hinchman of Hastings, one of the best wool men in the state, will grade the wool. This will be done at thei wagon, before the wool is unloaded, so that the farmer will know before . he unloads his wool just how if grades. The association has secured the H. L. Walrath building, on the east side of South Main street, in which to store the wool, and it is hoped to have arrangements com­ pleted so that announcement may be made in next week’s News as to what days wool will be received. They expect to take in wool one day each week, but will mj»ke it two days each week if necessary. It Is hoped to be ready to do business by the latter part of next week, so watch the paper for notice. The wool handled by the associa­ tion will be sold to the buyers on the floor here, and will not be shipped away until the price is made, so that there will be no opportunity for any misunderstanding on price or grad­ ing. The meeting of last Saturday af­ ternoon was somewhat of a disap­ pointment, inasmuch as the speakers expected failed to materialize, but the wool matter was talked over pret­ ty thoroughly, by those present and it was decided that the association should tackle the wool proposition this year. / �FORTY YEABS AGO.

This stock Is not approved by this Commission, nor are Torrey & Co.. Inc., dealers, registered in Michigan under the Blue Sky Law. As a mat­ ter of fact, the stock is being offered with few takers on the New York curb market at prices slightly over one-half those quoted by Torrey & Co., Inc.

(/The Tillage council is eoatiderlng the purchase of a motor drived fixe truck, to take the place of the anti­ quated hand drawn apparataa with which the department is now equip­ ped. The new outfit, if purchased, would be a combination chemical and hose wagon, carrying a 4(/-gal­ lon chemical tank, 200 feet ot chem­ ical hose, 1000 feet of regulation 2 1-2 inch fire hose, with ladders, axes, band chemical tanks, reloading tanks, etc. The outfit is uuanted on a Ford 1-ton truck chassis, and is complete in every detail. One of the great advantages of such an out­ fit is that it would give a great measure of fire protection to the out­ lying districts, which arc now be­ yond reach of the fire hydrants and therefore have no protection what­ With the proposed apparatus ever. property lying even two or three miles from the village could be reached In very short time, and’ the truck carries sufficient chemical ap­ paratus to enable the firemen to cope with a fire of considerable pro­ portions without the use of water. Another advantage would be In the prompt service ^rhich could be given In all parts of the village, and in most of the fires the chemical appar­ atus would be sufficient to extinguish the fires, without the heavy damage usually resultant whore water Is us­ ed. The price of the proposed truck Is $1850, and -payment may be spread over a term of three years, so that Its purchase would entail no great burden on the taxpayers, while the truck might pay for Itself many times over In that length of time.

This Canadian regiment was nam­ ed after Princess Patricia of Con­ naught, who has just as good a claim as any other princess to be godmoth­ er to a regiment. A regiment is Judged more by its record than its name. And’ this regiment needs no alibis. Eight of the original members are left. When England went to war she had no army, and the Germans were advancing on the Channel ports. A few British enthusiasts went to stop them—also some Canadians, in­ cluding the Princess Pals; but there were more than eight of them then In the Ypers region, along the Messines ridge, back and forth thru villages that were taken and retaken time and again In the same week, up and down hills that were tagged with ' numerals to Identify them as out­ posts that must be held or taken, the I hellish carnival raged.

The blood of those who died Is on the heads of British politicians who for ten years preceding the war re­ sisted every effort made to put Eng­ land into a state of defense. Such politicians atone by proxy for their sins. The bill is paid by a younger generation in the bloody days that follow. We have such politicians here. Throughout the war not a single Ger­ man fighting plane was shot down by an American machine. Not one. The record of American aviators is the admiration of England and France. But they scored their tri­ umphs in foreign machines. Fortunately we had the allies with us. But thousands of Americans would be alive today If our armies) had been screened by those clouds of 1 aeroplanes that we talked about but did not build.

William Strong was born near Rochester. New York, October 16. 1853, and passed away April 22. 1919, at his home in Nashville. When he was a small boy, the fam­ ily came to Castleton township, and thereafter he spent his life in this in marvicinity. He was united !_ rlage to Miss Irfa D. Kill, February 22, 1876. To «his union was ’born one daughter, who passed away in infancy. Mr. Strong has always been a hard working man. having spent the greater part ot his life on u farm, tho for the past twenty years he has been a citizen of this village. He is survived by his wife, one brother and several nieces and nephMr. Strong had been in failing health for a long time, and his death was not unexpected. The funeral cervices were held at the M. E. church Friday morning at 10:00 o'clock. Rev. Alfred Way of Charlotte officiating. The burial was conducted by the Masonic order, he having been a member of this or­ der tor the past thirty yedrs. The interment was at Lakeview cemetery To the People of Michigan: Each spring we enjoy a Clean-Up Week In our stale, a week which is , designated by the state fire marshal (as one which the people of Michigan , shell observe by a general cleaning un up of their oremiaea. premises. Carelessness Is the principal cause for a large pari of the fire waste of this country, and the coat of insur­ iance is Increased, naturally, by the ;heavy fire losses. Let all our people observe Clean­ Up Week, May 12-19, by a thorough cleaning up end removing all rubbish,! ।and Inflammable material from their premises, and by carefully Inspecting .the chimneys and heating plants. All factories, theatres, public and private Institutions should be thoro­ ughly looked over, and* all neceasary ,changes made immediately that will prevent fires, and insure the lives ,and safety of the occupants. Let the local authorities give spe­ cial attention to better building reg­ ulations, fire prevention, and where necessary, tanmadiately install addi­ tional Are apparatus for fighting fires. Cause fire drills to be held in all public and private Institutions, fac­ tories and schools, and let teachers instruct their pupils by short talks on fire prevention.' During the year 1918 there were 1441 fire in Michigan from unknown and incendiary .causes; defective heating plants and chimneys caused 3072 fires; gasoline and kerosene were the cause of 849 fires; careless uea of matches and smokers, 1133; spontaneous combustion and rubbish, 265: and hundreds cf other causes, making a total of 10,618 fires, with a total loss of ovef 810,000,000. By the co-operation of our citizens, greater results along fire prevention lines can be obtained, and I. there­ fore urge most earnestly that every­ thing possible be done to minimize the danger of fire, lessen fire hazards and thus reduce the fire loss in Mich­ igan. the doors, as it handicaps the firemen. in esse of fire. * Fire doom and abut- ■. i.ers should be cloned every night, and stock should never be placed so as , to ninno> hinder. the ready closing of these ”...n,®“£ Better to use metal .frames and sash with yrire glass. . See that all fire extinguishing ap­ paratus is in good working order. Slack and pulverized coal will spontaneously Ignite, as will char­ coal, when wet. Use safety matches. Requiring all doors to swing out­ ward, in public buildings, schools, theatres, etc., may prevent the loss of many lives. All buildings two’stories or over should be provided with fire escapes.

Dear -Sirs: ■ I was reading a few advertisements of different papers on autos, pertaining to what they have done in this war. But nothing about our little Ford. So I’m writing you a few facts which are as follows: In France 700 cars out of 1.000 were Fords, in Italy 850 cars out ot 1.00C were Fords. e In Egypt 996 cars out of 1.000 were Fords. ’ In Meso. 999 cars out of 1.000 were Fords. Under British capture, the first car in Bagdad was a Ford. ■ The first car to cross the Persian mountains was a Ford. The first car li. the genuine Garden of Eden was a Ford. The first car in the Holy I^and was a Ford. Lines ot communication contained Fords by the hundreds from Bag­ dad to the Black Sea. I have seen the Fords used as tanks, armoured moving forts, elec­ tric light plants, water pumps, ambulances, supply cars, and lots of other things, and always ready for anything at any time.

Kansas, sings and preaches in the old-fashioned way. The, sub­ jects for preaching thus far are av follows: "Sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee", "Sin that dwelleth in me," “Look to yoursel­ ves, that ye receive H full reward," "The steps of a good man are order­ ed by the Lord," “"Christ in you, in the hope of glory," "Ahab, walking_ in the sins of Jeroboam." In ’ these " discourses, sin (the disease) is ex­ posed and the infallible remedy (full salvation) is prescribed. As Mr. Wesley would say, "The remedy Is more than adequate for tbe disease." The evangelist is a competent witness of the great deliverance, having been not only throughly saved, but divine­ ly healed. * Christ is being exalted In these meetings, as tbe only hope of humanity, the Scriptures declar­ ing "For this purpose was the Son of God manifested, that He might destroy (utterly and eternally) the works of the devil." 1 John 3:8. Sin is unnatural and abnormal, while holiness is natural and normal. The Bible stresses getting rid of- inbred sin more than the blotting out of actual transgressions. Dr. Albert Barnes, the great Presbyterian com­ mentator, (now deceased) said, "In­ bred sin was In every chapter of the Bible." Bo it as.

That the selection of corn varieties which are adapted to the particular section of the state in which they are to be grown will determine the suc­ cess or failure of the corn crop is shown by a series of variety tests carried out over the state by M. A. C. These tests, which were planted and harvested by J. R. Duncan of the Farm Crops Department, indicate the leading varieties for each section. Based on the tests which have been carried out, the college advises the following varieties: In southern Michigan counties the Duncan, Wis­ consin. No. 7, or early Silver King, Folk's White Cap, Golden Glow, Pickett, and Peld’s Yellow Dent are best adapted; in south central, the Pickett, Golden Glow. Early Geddes, Wisconsin No. 7, Folk’s White Cap and Pride of Michigan; ‘in north cen­ tral and north, early strains of Gol­ den Glow, Pickett, Wisconsin No. 25 and Ogemaw White Cap and oth­ er native varieties are best suited.

A half century ago he decided to obey tbe law of Moses. "Do that which is right and good in the sight of the" Lord," and has been a member of the Evangelical church for many yean. By his death the community loses a noble character, his wife a loving protector, his children a wise and kind father, and all children a friend —a living example of the verse: "There’s nothing so kingly as kind­ ness And nothing so royal as Truth."

A loss of from 10 to 25 per cent of Michigan’s potato crop has been suffered during the last few years from preventable diseases, declares Prof. G. H. Coons, plant pathologist at M. m. a A;; u C.. Potato rotaio Scab scan and ana niaca Black Scurf (Rhizoctonla disease) are the' two diseases catalog the most ser-i Easy and inexpensive treatment of seed can be relied on to control the diseases in question, provided the potatoes are planted on soil which has not been used for potatoes for three or four years. The/treatment consists essentially in soaking seed tubers in disinfectant solution, for­ maldehyde and corsostve sublimate being used. The formaldehyde treatment Is ef-i fective for potato scab, but not for, black scurf. If the potatoes are sorted to get rid ot all that are in­ fected with the black scurf (which (shows up in the form of dirt-like lblemishes on the skin) the formalde|hyde treatment is perfectly satisfac­ tory. The-seed should be soaked for (from 15 minutes to an hour and a half in a solution made with one pint । formaldehyde to 30 gallons of water. The corrosive sublimate treatment I is preferred by most potato growers because of the fact that ti gets both diseases. Seed potatoes should be soaked in a solution made with 4 ounces of corrosive sublimate and 30 gallous of water, for from 30 min^utes to an hour and a half. Corro;Blve sublimate is a trifle expensive. about 20 to 30 bushel* of seed. It is also a deadly poison and must be handled in glass or wooden vessels. They think of us soldiers as heroes.

We are toldHhat the crow follows the plow or cultivator so that he may feed upon the num­ erous larvae, such as cutworms, wire worms and white gruoa, which the turning of the soil brings to light. If a flock of crows Is observed re­ turning again and again to a partic­ ular field It Is almost certain that the field Is infested with noxious larvae. The crow is the only agency which will destroy cutworms and white grubs. . It is also said that crows destroy quantities of mice and young rab­ bits, and that their activities among sprouting corn and in the poultry yard have been greatly exaggerated. We have never expected to see the crow upheld as an assistant to thq farmer. And we hope that he Is preparing to live up to this new and desirable reputation. The Nashville W. C. T. U. has a membenthip of 85. They will purcbaee a $50 Liberty’ bond, making $100 in bonds, their share of the $20,000 bonds to be raised in the state. ' The president, Mrs. Rilla Dejler, appointed the following officers: Vice president, Mrs. Fred Nelson, M. E. church; Mrs. Lilah Burine. Ad­ vent church; Mrs. Mary Scothorne, Nazarene church; Mrs. Gokay, Bap­ tist church; Mrs. Schantz, Evangeli­ cal church. On the flowers com­ mittee Mrs. Ed.

It was voted that a potted plant be presented to Mrs. Gutchess on Moth­ er's Day, Mrs. Gutchess being the oldest member of the Nashville un­ ion. Report of delegates: Mrs. Schantz and Mrs. Mayo of the county conven­ tion gave the report. Mrs. Minnie Replogle gave an in­ teresting talk on the schools in Michigan. Mrs. Calkins, state president, gave talks on the following subjects: That Michigan was the second state in the union to vote against the beer and wine amendment. That -Barry was the first to go over the top in the Victory Liberty Loan drive. That Michigan was very slack in her child­ labor law and in teaching temper­ ance in the schools. The six hun­ dred W. C. T. U. women of Barry county voted that they ask for cleaner amusements at the Barry county fair this fall. That the first woman suf­ frage meeting was held in 1848, and that they have been given the ballot In Michigan. It Is up to them to clean up things, look after the tobac­ co laws and make Michigan a clean­ er place tor our boys and girls to live In, for the boys and girls of today will be the men and women of the future and we look to them to carry on the good work that was started In 1884 by the great woman, Mrs. Fran­ ces Willard. This closed the meeting for the day, which adjourned to meet with Mrs. Rilla Deller May 22. Announcement of the leader and topic will be given later. LOCAL IMPROVEMENTS. The successful business man must base his life upon honor and integri­ ty. Beyond and outside of these, he must have the compound of initiative, aggressiveness, determination, prac­ ticability and vision which America, in her love for condensation, *has chosen to style “pep". The successful, wideawake and progressive town must possess the same qualities. It must..___ have the . judgment to realize that its prosperi­ ty and growth depend on the home advantages and business advantages which it can offer. And it must have vision enough to see that expenditures which secure these advantages are not an extravagance, but an asset. Money spent in local improvements such as public buildings, schools, good roads, sewers, city water, gas and electric lights, is money well spent. Undertaking any of these improvements is like making an ex­ cellent investment, which is bound to return dividends. The gain to the town reacts to the comfort and benefit of every citizen. Who wants to live in a town with­ out “pep", a town which drags out As monotonous existence without growth or improvement? When the question of a. local improvement comes up. stand behind it. work for It, vote for It. Install local Improve­ ments, and you will see your town sought b'y business enterprises and manufacturing. It is up to you. Mr. Citizen. Stand up for local Improvements first, last and all the time, and you will help make your home town a desirable place of residence and a progressive business center. There are many more luxuries in France than in this country. Where anthracite coal Is $80.00 a ton, but­ ter. $1.40 a pound, beefsteak $1.00 and up. eggs $1.60 a dozen and milk 2u cents a quart, these must must ail be reckoned as luxuries. The peace conference finally came to an agreement on Kiao-Chau. The principal cause of disagreement up­ on it was probably the spelling. Until the luxury tax came into ef­ fect, perhaps you did not know that candy and ice cream and chewing gum and face powder were luxuries. You will not. however, entertain any doubts on 'this head for some time to come. Live and learn! A year ago how many - of us had heard of Chateau Thierry’ or the AY^bnne forests?

It is expected that next Sunday night the finance committee will be able to re­ port that the quota of this church has been raised. The thought of our be­ ing able to do so much to relieve suf­ fering, to educate the benighted, to bring the spirit of true democracy to the nations of the earth and to win souls to the Saviour -pf men will be the occasion of our rejoicing. Every­ body come. Unit number ten did the business. For weeks we have been wondering what the flual unit could do that was new. It almost seemed that qvery great program had been rendered. But Mra. Glasner’s fertile mind and good heart solved the problem. She knew her unit and her unit delivered the goods. The lighted candles with appropriate passages of scripture to match made old students wonder at the' number' of bible references on light. Many inspiring testimonies were given. Those who came special­ ly to bear Mrs. Gleaner will be glad to learn that her message will be given some other time. Evangelical Church. We were glad to welcome so many mothers and fathers at our Parents’ day service last Sunday, and we hope that many of them will be able to meet with us regularly during the coming months. We are pleased to note that en­ forced absence from Sunday school, because of rainy weather, docs not dampen the ardor of our. scholars. The attendance was up to 216 again last Sunday, with an offering of $9.98. It is very apparent that as our attendance increases, something will have to happen to the walls of our church. It looks like they are going to be pushed out, or else the roof raised, or maybe the floor raised. Here’s hoping. Our Alllancers are surely a lively bunch and it is a real pleasure to associate with them. The respective, leaders are putting on very pleasing programs for the Sunday everiing services.Come and see, and hear. The business and social meeting at the Frank Bennett home on Monday evening was a very jolly occasion. Most everybody had at least one real hearty laugh. The June meeting will be held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Amos Wenger. Next Sunday Is the regular quar­ terly meeting. Presiding Elder Wat­ son comes for the first service on Friday evening. The quarterly busi­ ness meeting will follow the sermon. Bro. Watson will preach again on Sunday evening at 7:30, after which the regular communion service will be held. All are invited to come to these services. Baptist Church Notes. May 11 was a good''day in our church life. Incidentally it happen­ ed to.be the pastor’s birthday, and he was a most surprised man on coming home after morning service to find a table full of good things to eat and hearty wishes from kind doners. Had the friends been reading Mat. 3:10 lately? Anyway, the writer thought he’d like "many returns” of such a day, and they would be “happy”, isurely. These very kind gifts of ap­ preciation are very thankfully ac­ knowledged by the pastor and his wife and family. The Sunday services will be at the usual hours. It is hoped the attend,c*ces will grow with the Improve­ ment *~ -- in " the’ weather. John G. C. Irvine. Nszarene Church Notos.

We wish to thank our neighbors and friends for the second surprise lu the way of a gift, recently tender­ ed us, by them. We feel that mere words are not deep enough ^o ex­ press the emotions and memories which this gift brings home to us. Mr. and Mrs. Harry B. Hinckley. And now they are attempting to prove that lhe crow is not so black as his feathery coat—that ho is In tact a helper towa~d the cultivation of the fields. We are told*that the crow follows the plow or cultivator so that he may feed upon the num­ erous larvae, such as cutworms, wire worms and white grubs, which the turning of Lhe soil brings to light. If a flock of crows Is observed re­ turning again and again to a partic­ ular field It Is almost certain that the field Is Infested with noxious larvae. The crow is the only agency which will destroy cutworms and white grubs. . It is also said that crows destroy quantities of mice and young rab­ bits, and that their activities among sprouting corn and in the poultry yard have been greatly exaggerated We have never expected to see the crow upheld as an assistant to the farmer. And we hope that he is preparing to live up to this new and desirable reputation. Devotion*Is. Bbcretary’i report read cepted. .

Report of delegates: Mrs. Schantz and Mrs. Mayo of the county conven­ tion gave the report. Mrs. Minnie Replogle gave an in­ teresting talk on the schools In Michigan. Mrs. Calkins, state president, gave talks on the following subjects: That Michigan was the second state in the union to vote against the beer and wine amendment. That Barry was the first to go over the top .in the Victory Liberty Loan drive. That Michigan was very slack In her child­ labor law and In teaching temper­ ance In the schools. The six hun­ dred W. C. T. U. women of Barry count voted that they ask for cleaner amusements at the Barry county fair this fall. That .the first woman suf­ frage meeting was held in 1848, and that they have been given the ballot In Michigan. It is up to them to clean up tbings, look after the tobac­ co laws and make Michigan a clean­ er place for our boys and girls to live in, for the boys and girls of today will bo the men and women of the future and we look to them to carry on the good work that was started tn 1884 by the great woman. Mrs. Fran­ ces Willard. This closed the meeting for the day, which adjourned to meet with Mrs. Rilla Deller May 22. Announcement of the leader and topic will be given later. There are many more luxuries In France than in this country. Where anthracite coal is $80.00 a ton, but­ ler $1.40 a pound, beefsteak $1.00 and up. eggs $1.60 a dozen and milk 2u cents a quart, these must must all be reckoned as luxuries. The peace conference finally came to an agreement on Kiao-Chau. The principal cause of disagreement up­ on it was probably the spelling. Until the luxury tax came into ef­ fect, perhaps you did not know that candy and ice cream and chewing gum and face powder were luxuries. You will not, however, entertain any doubts on this head for some time to come. ' Live and learn! A year ago how many of us had heard of Chateau Thierry or lhe Afffrnne forests?

If the petitioners can point to anything that can be bought for a half-cent now-a-days. the treasury will proba­ bly give their request some consider­ ation. LOCAL IMPROVEMENTS. The successful business man must base his life upon honor and integri­ ty. Beyond and outside of these, he must have the compound of initiative, aggressiveness, determination, prac­ ticability and vision which America, in her love for condensation, "has chosen to style "pep". The successful, wideawake and progressive town must possess the same qualities. It must have the judgment to realize that its prosperi­ ty and growth depend on the home advantages and business advantages which It can offer. And it must have vision enough to see that expenditures which secure these advantages are not an extravagance, but an asset. Money spent in local Improvements such as public buildings, schools, good roads, sewers, city water, gas and electric lights, is money well spent. Undertaking any of these improvements is like making an ex­ cellent investment, which Is bound to return dividends. The gain to the town reacts to the comfort and benefit of every citizen. Who wants to live in a town with­ out "pep”, a town which drags out its monotonous existence without wth or. improvement? When the question of a local Improvement comes up. stand behind it, work for It. vote for it. Install local improve­ ments, and you will see your town sought by business enterprises and manufacturing. It is up to you. Mr. Citizen. Stand up for local Improvements first, last and all tbe time, and you will help make your home town a desirable place of residence and a progressive business center. BACKACHE IS A WARNING.

The best Joke of the season Is on Kenneth Calkins, and the beauty of It Is that Kenneth Is taking it well and laughs with the rest of tbe gang. Nashville H. S. played 'ball at Mid­ dleville Friday. When the game was finished, the boys phoned home the resuts of the game, which was 11 to 3 in favor of Nashville, and the news quickly spread around* among the boys. Kenneth, however, had not heard of It, and he called up the operator at Middleville to find out how the game came out and she told him It was 9 to 4 in favor of Middleville. Then Kenneth went out on the street and got busy, plac­ ing a dollar here and a dollar there with tbe boys on the result of the game. He found willing takers un­ til he run out of money, but so far as we have heard he has not yet Quit Claim IkeiU. cashed in on his "sure thing."

I’m not a horse doctor”. And the voice came bask, "Why, Isn’t this Doctor Miller? I-called for Doctor Miller,” and rang “Big stock of alabastine tints; use it for your Interior decor­ ating.'*—C. H.

Otherwise some portions of the potato would be cooked to pieces while others would be underdone. This principle is one of the most important to consider when buying flour. If'the flour is unevenly ground, the granulation will be uneven and consequently will not bake uniformly, which is bound to result in poor success. . Bake-day has no terrors for the cook using Lily White The Hour the best cooks use' because it is so uniformly good that success is assured in advance. By placing LILY WHITE FLOUR under a powerful magnifying glass you will be greatly impressed by the absolute uniformity of the granulation. This evenness of granulation insures positively uniform baking quali­ ties which means the best possible results with the least effort. Besides the uniformity of the flour, please notice in particular the flavor of everything baked from LILY WHITE. Right there is another pleasant surprise for you.

WOTRING Window Shades Window Shades The Michigan Railroad Commis­ sion is no more, and in its place we now have, or will have when Its members qualify and take their places, a public utilities commission, which will have jurisdiction over nearly everything In the state. Gov­ ernor Sleeper has named four of the five members prescribed by law, they being Hon. W. W. Potter of Hastings, Sherman T. Handy of the Soo, Samuel O’Dell of Shelby and Wm. M. Smith of St. Johns. The fifth member has not yet been nam­ ed. For some eighteen months there has been considerable friction be­ tween the members of the railroad commission, and when the governor insisted on re-appolntlng Commis­ sioner Cunningham, whose term of office had expired, Commissioner Glasgow, realizing that his attitude toward corposatlons was not in har­ mony with the attitude of his as­ sociates, handed the governor his resignation. The senate refused to confirm the appointment of Commis­ sioner Cunningham, and the friction thus engendered culminated in the legislature creating a public utilities commission of five members and abolishing the railroad commission, with Its three members. The new commission has somewhat broader powers than had been enjoyed by the railroad commission, and it will cost the state In salaries for the five commissioners 135.000 per year, in­ stead of the 39,000 which the three members of the railroad commission have pulled down. When the legislature met last week for final adjournment the sen­ ate lot the governor know that they would net confirm'the appointment of Commissioner Keiser, a member of the railroad commission, to the new board, and the governor then appointed four new men as members of. the commission, but up to the time the News goes to press the fifth member has not been named. The members of the new commis­ sion are to draw down a salary of 37,000 per year each, but have to live at Lansing. Mr. Glasgow says he would enjoy spending the 37,000 all right, but would not be willing to leave Nashville to do it. In the appointments so far made of members of the new board, the governor has chosen no one who has any knowledge whatever of the work, but they are all capable of learning. Barry county still retains a place on the board, In the person of Mr. Pot­ ter, while another of the members. Mr. Smith, is a resident of this fif­ teenth senatorial district, and so far as named the eastern part of the state is not recognized. Nashville, while realizing that Mr. Glasgow has been a most valuable man for the state during his twelve years of senrice on the railroad com­ mission. will be more than glad to have him back home to stay, for we realize that his dynamic energy means much to the |own. He has earned a rest from his arduous pub­ lic duties and we are more than glad to weloome him into full citizenship again in his own home town. THE CENTENARY BANQUET. The Centenary banquet proved to be a big affair despite disappoint­ ments. Two whose names appeared on the program were unable to be present. One hundred and fifty p&rtpok of the well appointed dinner and enjoyed a happy and inspiration­ al program. Several home talent numbers were given with great acceptlbllity, then Dr. Elliott did every­ thing he.was advertised to do and more. His interesting array of his­ torical facts, his fascinating geo­ graphical surveys, his entrancing flights of oratory, and his almost Irresistable appeal place him among the masters of the platform. Among the remarks made in his praise this one was caught- "Such a man is one of the greatest assests to the highest American life.” "Such mas­ ters In our pulpits constitute the greatest difference between Ameri­ can democracy and that‘which we see in other countries." At the close 3200 was signed toward the Centen- The Woman's Literary club met at the home of Mrs. Mae Northrup on Tuesday afternoon, May 13, at which time a very Interesting program was carried out.

UNITED STATES TIRE NEWS. Tires are so important a part of the equipment of an automobile, that the experienced motorist does not care to lose his money or his tem­ per making experiments. He buys tires that have proved their worth af­ ter years of testing, and leaves it to others to shoulder the expense of trying out the novelties that come and the automobile owner keep a careful account of all bls costs and that be know the exact performance of each tire. It is among this elats of buy­ ers that the United States Tire Co. finds its best customers. Many large corporations, which have reduced their tire buying to a science and place their orders where they get the most service for the money, use Unit­ ed States tires exculslvely.

The frame is wider and more substantia], which together with the wide-tired wheels causes the mower to work evenly and steadily in the heav­ iest grass under severest conditions. Another aid is the pitman being longer and its thrust more direct and powerful. Thia mower saves a large amount of time and labor by reason of its long cutter bar. It is so nicely adjusted that an ordinary pair of horses can draw it with ease. Call in and let us show you the Walter A. Wood and Crown mowers. C. L. Glasgow STAR One Day Only K A “STAND UP ANO FIGHT” PICTURE A Knockout In the First Reel A Knockout in the Last Reel and Jammed Full of Punches In Between JACK SHERRILL Mildred and Charlotte, two charm­ ing Castleton girls, were expecting company the other evening from, veil, we'll say from Bennington. They rather looked for the boys on the evening train and they were down town to meet them, but the boys failed to appear, so the girls went home. The next morning Char­ lotte's mother tried to get them up, for breakfast, but she called and called in vain. Finally she made a bluff of being called to the phone’ and apparently talked with the boys who had got in on the early morning train and were waiting tn town for, the girls to come after them. Well, say, the way those girla hustled into their togs and got down stairs was a record-breaker In that household, and without stopping for breakfast or to give their stray locks an extra pat they booked up old Dobbin and hit the trail for town. Mother tried to get them to walk, saying that they would probably meet them walking out, but walking was too slow. They didn't meet the boys on the way in, and they didn't find them when they got to town, and they were not at the station, and in dlspair they finally phoned out to Mother and asked where she thought, they could find the boys, and Mother told them that as* far as she knew they could find them at Bennington, as she had not beard from them. And the girls went back to breakfast, and were real peeved at Mother for so heart­ lessly disturbing their slumbers on false pretenses. We know a man who worked like the dlcken* all his life to stack up'' thirty thousand smackers, with the idea that when he had that much he' could retire and sp$nd the rest of his' days in peace and plenty. Now he is sixty-five, has his thirty thou, and’ has to hustle harder than ever to raise money enough to pay his taxes and his ordinary every day expenses. Thirty thou used to be a lot of money, but it won't buy many eggs these' days. ■ Been spending a lot of time lately. reading in the Detroit Free Press a aeries of stories on "How to Raise‘ a Home Garden." But the best pointers on how to raise *a garden we’ get from the neighbor's chickens.; They can raise It about as fast as we can put It in. About decided that1\ the best way to raise a garden is by proxy. What’s the matter with Germany, anyway? First she wanted war, and before she got enough of it she quit, cold, like a yellow dog. Then she wanted peace and she’s getting more than she wants of that. Some peo­ ple are darned hard to suit. "Ain't It the truth?” We believe those fellows who got out and hustled last Sunday to get their corn ground ready can be for­ given just as easily as can those who went to church in the morning and spent the rest of the day joy riding. Airplane passenger traffic to Eu­ rope seems to be attended with much difficulty and danger. But in two years people will laugh at this same item, because it will be so old-fash­ ioned by that time.

Each year aa Memorial,Day comes to the brave men. living and daat who. by their splendid achievement nearly six decades ago, ago. saved this na m­ tion from disruption. Their heroic deeds will never die. Their memorjes will.be. cherished while the Re­ public lasts ; for tn the hour of their country’s need they left their homes and loved ones and went forth to do battle for the lite of the Union. Our stltutions and our national ideals were menaced by a fierce and power­ ful foe. Our young men betook themselves in thousands to the train­ ing camps and later crossed the seas to uphold on foreign soil the. honor of the flag. With a fortitude and r valor befitting the sons and the grandsons ot those patriots ot an earlier day, they grandly bore their part in the struggle. Now they are coming back to us, Jput not all; and through our proud joy today, as we greet the returning hosts,.vthere runs a note of sadness. We mourn with those who mourn for the noble fel­ lows who will not come back to uh. God help us all so to live, so to keep and guard our birth-right of true freedom, that -------- we - ~ may be worthy , of -­ lh» gre«t a*«rlllee they made tor us Therefore, that that earo we mav may nav pay aa tri. tri­ bute of respect and esteem to the sur­ viving veterans of the Civil War, the Spanish-American War and ‘.he re­ cent World War, to honor the mem­ ory of the men who gave up their Ilves in all these wars, I, Albert E. Sleeper, Governor of the State of Michigan, do hereby Issue in mv proclamation and sincerely urge th? observance of , Friday, May 80th 1910, as Mem >r- ial Day. And 1 earnestly appeal to the people of Michigan for hearty co op­ eration In plans for the observance ot the day in their lespectiv* cwnn unities, and tor /pedal provision this year for the comfnrt and con­ venience of the old <toldiors. Age is telling on them physically but the same undaunted spirit is there as of yore. On that day flags should be dis­ played at half-staff until noon, and then hoisted to the top of the' staff. Albert E. Sleeper, Gov. GOOD LEGISLATION. Michigan took two advanced steps in Industrial legislation at the re­ cent session in the passage of- the Miles bill "to prohibit discrimination as between sex in the payment of wages of males and females engaged In the manufacture or production of any article" and the Fitzgerald bill defining the crime of criminal syn­ dicalism. The Mlles bill grants to women, by legislation, what the male voters granted them through the medium of the ballot box. viz.: wage equality with men for equal service. Origin of Sabotage. The Fitzgerald bill initiates new matter into Michigan s^tutes. in fact one word is put Into law for the first time in the history of the state. The word is "sabotage" and is of French origin, and means the wilful Injury or destruction of machinery or mater­ ials by workmen through apparent ac­ cidental means. Tradition has it that a French workman in a rage one day threw his wooden shoes (Sabot) Into some machinery crippling the equipment and handicapping produc- Better them dof&e and other stimulants.

GOING WEST J. F. BEMENT FOIZYSHOHEWAR account of criminal made upon a womai Lucy Allen.in the City of Ionia on or about the 9th of May. Mrs. Allen informed the officers that the assault was committeed by on© who can­ vassed for a nursery, selling fruit trees and shrubs. - The officers on investigation found that from about the let of May until Lhe 13th of MajMr. Emmett Felghner of Nashville> was at Ionia canvassing -—■ -for nursery stock and finding a C"7 -* an -- — copy of order *" one family f.rntlv in which he had sold to the blty, obtained his name and lo­ cation, conwquontly the warrant wan Iissued oq,i»^ awnrl and be wrww was hrnnrht brought tn to Tnnkl Ionia for examination. Mr. Felghner de­ nied his guilt and explained <0 the officers that he was present in Ionia during the time above mentioned, and that he did call at the home on the 2nd of May, but was not at her home, on the 6th, and that there was evidently a mistake, and that the of­ ficers had arrested the wrong per­ son. The prosecuting attorney, J. Clyde Watt, immediately made a care­ ful investigation and ascertained that another man was in town on the 9th and that he had called at the home of Mrs. Allen. Mr. Felghner was brought in the presence of Mrs. Al­ len, and she immediately said that he was not the party guilty of the as­ sault. Upon this investigation, the prosecuting attorney immediately dismissed the case explaining to John Nichol, justice of the peace, the cir­ cumstances out of which the mistake had occurred, and assurred Mr. Felghner that there was no question at all of his innocence, and that he regretted exceedingly that a mis­ take had been made. Mr. Felghner informed the court and prosecutor that he had felt certain that he would be vindicated when the facts had become known, for he had sold fruit trees in Ionia for upwards of eighteen years and never had had any trouble. Mr. Nichol, justice of the peace, alsh assurred Mr. Feighner of his certainty under the cir­ cumstances of his Innocence and im­ mediately adopted the recommenda­ tion of the prosecuting attorney, and dismissed the case. Mr. Felghner is a resident of Bar­ ry county, on a farm near Nashville, and is a prominent citizen of that community and whose reputation at home Is beyond reproach. Mr. Felghner returned this morning to bis home at Nashville with his wife and son who were present and lis­ tened to his complete vindication. There is no criticism upon the of­ ficers by Mr. Felghner, for he feels that they have been perfectly fair with him and the unfortunate cir­ cumstances simply grew out of a mis­ take in identity. O.

' And there is a lot of satisfaction in positively knowing when you have made a purchase that you have received one hundred cents worth of value Tor every dollar expended. Besides everybody is entitled to full value. Of course there will probably always be people in .the world who are bound to get the worst of a transaction. And others who are always getting the best end of the deal. One thing is certain, however, if you always buy Lily White The Hour the best cooks use’ you will always get full value for your dollar. LILY WHITE FLOUR is sold under the guarantee that if you do not like it as well OR BETTER than any flour you have ever used the purchase price will be cheerfully refunded. That guarantee means if LILY WHITE FLOUR does not give you complete satisfaction for every requirement of home baking the pur­ chase price will be returned to you without quibbling or delay. ‘ Besides getting your money’s worth, bake-day will have a new inter­ est for you, as the wholesomeness and goodness of everything made from LILY WHITE FLOUR, "The flour the best cooks use,” will add a decided cheerfulness to the occasion.

Andrews., So much road building in Barry county has been authorized under the Covert law that the county road com­ mission has been compelled to adopt a policy with reference to paying for the same. This they (fid after con­ sultation with the state highway de­ partment, and after learning that Qtfi> er Michigan counties, where road construction is proceeding under the Covert act, were paying fcom 50 to as high as 70 per cent of the cost of such roads. The policy adopted lor Barry county is that the county pay 50 per cent, the township 25 per cent, and the assessment district the remaining 25 per cent.

In this way, we shall do honor to ourselves and to the memory of the gallant lads who have laid down their lives in the cause of human rights and human freedom. Therefore. I, Albert E.

Let flags be displayed on both pub­ lic and private buildings; and, as Flag Day will fall on Saturday when the schools will be closed. I suggest that on Sunday, Jpne 15, fitting Flag Day programs be given in all the churches of the state. Let us honor the flag. Cmon in; Water’s Fire. One of our dry goods merchants, who Is an ardent disciple of Isaac Walton, invited his wife to accompa­ ny him on a fishing trip to Tbornapple not many days ago, and thereon hangs a tale which would bring de­ light to the heart of the fool editor, but he is in Pennsylvania and loath to leave before the first of July, so we will have to be coptent with giv­ ing you just a few of .the harrowing details. The pair were crossing the lake in quest of the elusive blue gills when they decided that it would be more comfortable (for the man at the oars) to change seats, and ac­ cordingly started to do so. The ac­ cident occurred as they tried to pass each other in the boat, and the lady landed in the lake where the depth of the water seriously handicapped her breathing but did not prevent her uttering screams that woulcLrival our mocking bird whistle under a full head of steam. She finally managed to get hold of the edge of the boat and clung on until her husband ob­ ligingly rescued her from a watery grave. We were going to suggest that the Incident was premeditated, but the domestic felicity of the fami­ ly seems unimpaired, so it would be no more than fair to assume that it was only an accident after all. The fishing trip ended in disgust. © OB1TUARY. Charles Lemuel Lewis was born in Hastings township, Mich., August 9, 1903. Five weeks ago he was taken with typhoid fever, which proved fa­ tal, ao after all that (hedical skill and loving hands could do, he departed this life in his home in Nashville, Mich., June 6, 1919, at the age of 15 yean, 9 months and 28 days. He was a kind and affectionate boy, highly respected by a’l who knew him. Besides his father and mother, he leaves a grandfather, grandmother and two brothers, three sisters and a number of other relatives and friends to mourn their loss. The funeral services were conduct­ ed by Rev. Chas'. Hanks Sunday at two p. m. at the Methodist church at Quimby, after which the remains were taken to the Sponabk cemetery CARD OF THANKS.

A representative crowd of twenty Shorthorn ' breeder* coming from practically every section In Bahry Xo. assembled at the coun house on Fri­ day afternoon to form a JJarry- Co. Shorthorn . Breeders' association. This is tho first meeting o' a county wide nature for the Shorthorn men. The meeting was called to order by the county agent, acting through the live stock committee of tho Barry County Farm Bureau. Mr. Tanner explained that In all such cases as this It was necessary for the county agent to do this class of work wher­ ever the farmers demanded ft, and that he believed that any organisa­ tion of a county wide nature touch­ ing any particular line of farming meant more than any other single project. James A. Waldron, live stock specialist from the extension division ot the State Agricultural College, was then Introduced and explained the benefit that would bo derived from a co-operative county wide movement. Tho demand was nev­ er so great for pure bred animals as right now, as people are just coming to realize that any animal -bred along special lines, and for a special pur­ pose, meant more to them financially though they never sold pure bred stock, than the scrub. • There Is no danger of the pure bred business be­ ing overdone. Your proposed asso­ ciation will assist greatly In getting the pure bred sires better distribut­ ed, and helps to standardize the work ot the county. Following Mr. Waldron. Mr. Malchelo of Middleville told of the benefits that he Bad received through belong­ ing to the Caledonia and Kent county associations. Mr. Lindsky of the Southwestern Barry association then told of the start made three years ago In buying pure bred sires. About thirty peo­ ple organized tor this purpose, and at the present time the members have between forty and fifty pure bred females. The question . was asked Mr. Lindsley as to how many he thought they would have at the 1L_ present time provided they had not formed their association, and *he stated in reply that there would none. "’Robert Martin thought that a great deal had already been accom­ plished just by meeting in a county wide nature, but the county associa­ tion would be a fine help, and he was all for It. A constitution was adopted at this time and the following officers elect­ ed: President—S. G. Malchele, Middle­ ville. Vice Pres.—Dewey Doster, ^Doster. Sec. and Treas.—W. L. Thorpe. Milo.

M. Welch, General Manager of the Michigan State Telephone Com pany, declares that the increased rates authorized by the Postmaster General are needed to meet an emergency unpa ralelied in the history ot the Com­ pany. No dividends have been paid on the common stock since 1915. From 1915 to 1918, inclusive, new business re­ quiring added capital Increased the revenue of the Company 29.5% while expenses, not including depreciation nor interest charges, increased 89.3%. It the Company had paid a reason­ able return on the Investment for the year 1918 it would have needed |2,823,592 more than it did earn. As a matter of fact it did not earn enough to wholly take care of its depreciation. The General Manager calls atten­ tion to the problems in Michigan that faced the Postmaster General when the Government took over the opera­ tion and direction of the Telephone lines last August With a continuing deficit increasing monthly because of the increasing costs of materials and labor, added revenue had to bo ob­ tained In order to prevent the Gov­ ernment from having to make up the loss. For this reason an application was made before the Michigan Rail­ road Commission for increased rate schedules. The rates asked for were not claimed to be adequate but it was thought that they would produce the minimum amount with which the Company could continue - doing busluses and were so low and the amount of added revenue so small that no one could conscientiously challenge them. Since that time costs have still further advanced and conditions have changed so that the rates now authorised by tbe Postmaster General will not meet immediate needs. Mr. Welch says that for six years there has been a continued effort to adjust telephone rates in Michigan. Because of rapidly changing col ditlqps each schedule proposed ha* be­ come obsolete before tbe regulatory bodies considering it had finally paaeed upon it While charges for all oth­ er products and services have advanned telephone rate* have not increased although the cost of furnish­ ing service has been steadily going up. With this change in rates the in- behind the times and the maul rents; the man behind the plowshare and ihe man behind the fence; the man behind the whistle and the man behind, the cars; the man behind the kodak and ma.n behind the bars; the man behind the-whis­ kers and the man behind tho fiats; and everything behind has entered on the list. But they've skipped an­ other fellow of whom nqthing ha* been said—tho fellow who is even, or a little way ahead; who pays for what he gets, whose bills are always signed—he's, a blamed sight more important than the man who is be­ hind.

The boy took the of­ fice chair and bls employer picked up the cap and stepped outside. Then he opened the door softly, walked quietly to the opposite side of the room, placed his hat securely on the hook and, turning, said to the small boy in the big chair. "Please, _L. sir. there is a ball game at the park to­ day. If you can spare me I would like to get away for the afternoon.” In a flash the boy replied: "Why, certainly, Jimmie, and here Is fifty cents to pay your way in."—The Christian Herald.

It is related of the president of a famous college that at one time he allowed his wife to persuade him- of the uselessness ot fire insurance on household goods, and he allowed his policy to laspe. But, ^better judg­ ment asserting Itself, he finally re­ newed his insurance. The same day a fire in his wife’s rooms destroyed sqme of her dresses, which the pro­ fessor enjoyed as a good joke. In due time the president cC the insurance company wrote President Blank this letter. "Dear Mr. Blank:—W’e enclose check for 3500, paying your fire claim under our policy B6007.

"That letter I gave you thia morn­ ing. dM-You mall it?” asked the wife, looking at her husband out of the ,corner of her eye. "No, dear, I did not," said the man boldly. "Of course you didn't.

Al­ most before he realized that they were on the way up the straight, dark road the lights In the windows of Hart's Tavern came into view. Once more tbe bounding, swaying car came to a stop under brakes, and he was relax­ ing after the strain of the most hair­ raising ride he had ever experienced. Not a word had been spoken dur Ing the trip. The front windows were lowered. The driver—an old, hatchet­ faced man—had uttered a single word just before throwing in the clutch at I the crossroads in response to the young woman’s crisp command to drive to Hart's Tavern. That word was uttered under his breath and It is not necessary to repeat it here. The wayfarer lost no time in climb­ ing out of the car. As he leaped to the ground and raised hto green hat he took a second look at the automobile—a look of mingled wonder and respect It was an old-fashioned, high-powered car, capable, despite its antiquity, of astonishing speed In any sort of go­ ing. "For heaven's sake," he began, shouting to her above the roar of the wind and rain, “don't let him drive like that over those^-” "You’re getting wet," she cried out a thrill In her voice. “Good night— and thank “Look out I" rasped the unpleasant driver, and in went the clutch. The man in the road jumped hastily to one side as the car shot backward with a jerk, cuned sharply, stopped for the fraction of a second, and then bounded forward again, beaded for the cross­ roads. "Thanks 1" shouted the late passen­ ger after the receding tall light, and dnshed up the steps to the porch that ran the full length pf Hart’s Tavern. A huge old-fashioned lantern hung above the portal, creaking and strain­ ing in the wind, dragging at its stout supports and threatening every in­ stant to break loose and go frolicking away with the storm. He lifted the latch nnd. being a tall man. Involuntarily stooped as he passed through the door, a needless precaution, for gaunt, gigantic moun; talneers had entered there before him and without bending their arrogant heads. New Telephone Toll Rates Effective June 13th, 1919 By order of the Postmaster General, new schedules of rate* for telephone toll calls became effective 12:01 a. m., June 13th, 1919. Under these new schedules the “station to station” rate is the base rate upon which all rates for the various classes of ser­ vice offered, are computed. This rate is determined by the air line distance between toll points and is computed, for the initial period, on the basis of 5o for each 6 miles up to 24 miles and for each 8 miles beyond that distance.

To cure the pains and aches, to remove the lameness when it arises from weakened kidneys, you | must reach the cause—the kidneys. '■ If you have pain through the small I of your back, urinary disorders. headaches, dizzy spells, or are nerI voup and depressed, start treating j the kidneys with a tested kidney remedy. Doan's Kidney Pills have been proved good and are especially for weak kidneys. Doan’s have been used in kidney trouble for over 50 years. Read Nashville testimony. Mrs. J. F. Taylor, Malo street, says: "Some years ago I suffered from backaches, headaches and oth­ er symptoms of kidney trouble. A friend recommended Doan's Kidney Pills to me and I began using them. Two boxes greatly relieved me. When I have any sign of the trouble now I depend on Doan’s Kidney Pills to give me relief." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy— get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Taylor had. Foster-Mil­ burn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo. N. Y.—Adv.

There Is weeping and gnashing of teeth In the large cities at the 're­ peal of the daylight saving law. But they are not narrow minded about it. They admit that the law has been^worklng a hardship to farmers, and that there is plenty of argument in favor of Its repeal. If the farm­ er sets his clock In contradiction to railroad time, his schedule will get considerably twisted when he Is shipping cream and produce .to the consumer. But the .whole trouble is so easily cured that It Is difficult to understand why it ever became a vexed question. It Is simply a matter of phraseology. We can call any time bedtime, If we want to go to bed. City folks can have what they want without hurting the farmers, if they prefer to start work an hour closer to sunrise. Make employers get to­ gether and arrange that offices shall open and close an hour earlier. Places that open at 8.30 and close at JT.SO can open at 7.30 and close at 4.30.

"Listen." he said in a low voice. “I will tell you .who they were looking for.” As briefly as possible he re­ counted his .experience with the strange young woman at the cross­ roads. "From the beginning I have connected tills tragedy with the place called Green Fancy. I'll stake my last penny that they have been hanging around here waiting for the arrival of that young woman. They knew she was coming and they doubtless knew what she was bringing with her. What do you know about Green Fancy?" He was vastly excited. His active imagination was creating all sorts of possibilities and complications, depre­ dations and Intrigues. Bacon was the one who answered. “People lire up there and alnee we’re been here two or three men visitors have come down from the place to sample our stock of wet goods. I talked with a couple of ’em day before yc«er- I day. They were out for a horseback ride and stopped here for n mug of ale." । “Were they foreigners?” inquired 1 Barnes. | “If you want to call an Irishman a foreigner. I’ll have to say one of them was. He had a beautiful brogue. The other was an American. I’m sure. Yesl. rdny they rode past here with a cou- ' pie of swell-looking women. I saw them turn up the road to Green Fancy."

I met Ker at the corners and she asked me if I knew how far it was to Green Fancy, or something like that Said she was going there. Then along came the automobile, rattling down this very road—an ancient Panhard driven by an old codger. She seemed to think It was all right to hop in and trust herself to him, although she'd never seen him before." “The antique Panhard fits in all right,” said O’Dowd, “but I’m hanged if the woman fits at all. No such per­ son arrived at Green Fancy last night.” “Did you get a square look at the driver’s face?" demanded De Soto. “It was almost too dark to see, but he was old, hatchet-faced, and spoke with an accent." “Then It couldn't have been Peter," said De Soto positively. “He’s old, right enough, but he Is as big as the side of a bouse, with a face like a full moon,.and he Is Yankee to his toes.

At twelve-thirty sharp Barnes enme down from his room freshly shaved and brushed, to find not only Mr. Rush­ croft and Miss Thackeray awaiting him in the office, but the Messrs. DI1IJngford and Bacon as well. “I took the liberty, old fellow." said Rushcroft, addressing Barnes, “of ask­ ing my excellent co-workers to join us in our repast." “Delighted to have you with us, gen­ tlemen,” said Barnes affably. The sole topic of conversation for the first half hour was the mysterious slaying of their fellow lodgers. Mr. Rushcroft complained bitterly of the outrageous, high-handed action of the coroner and sheriff In imposing upon him and his company the sanw >estrlcflons that had been applied to •Barnes. They were not to-leave thfcounty until the authorities gave the 'word. One would have thought, to hear the star's indignant lamentations, thnt he and his party were In a posi­ tion to depart when they pleased. It would have been difficult to Imagine that he was not actually rolling in money instead of being absolutely penniless. Barnes had been Immersed In his own thoughts for some time. A slight frown, as of reflection, darkened his eyes. Suddenly—perhaps Impolitely— he interrupted Mr. Rwjbcnrft's flow of eloquence. “Have you any objection, Mr. Rnxhcroft, to a more or hss jiersonal ques- “It's rather delicate, but would you mind telling me just how much >ou were stuck up for by the—er—wns it a writ of attachment?" “It was," said the star.

Ninety-seven dol­ lars and forty cento. For that pitiful amount he subjected me to—" “Well, that Isn't so bad," said Barnes, vastly relieved. He was eovertly watching Miss Thackeray's half­ averted face as he ventured upon the proposition he had decided to put be­ fore them. “I am prepared and wil­ ling to advance this amount. Mr. Rush­ croft, and to take your personal note as security.” Rushcroft leaned back in his chair and stuck his thumbs lu the annholes of his vest. He displayed no undue elation. Instead he affected profound calculations. His daughter shot a swift, searching look at the would-be Samaritan. There was a heightened color in her cheeks. "Moreover, I shall be happy to In­ crease the amount of the loan suffi­ ciently to cover your return at once to New. York, If you so desire—by train." Barnes smiled as he added the last two words. “Extremely kind of you, my dear Barnes," said the actor, running his fingers through his hair. “Tour faith in me is mpst gratifying. I—I really don’t know what to say to yon, sir." “May I inquire just how you ex­ pect to profit by this transaction, Mr. Barnes?” Miss Thackeray asked steadily. He started, catching her meaning. "My dear Miss Thackeray." he ex­ claimed, “this transaction is solely be­ tween. your father I shall ------------and ------me. -----------have no other claim to press." “I wish I could believe that,” she’ said. “You may believe it," he assured her.

But, bless, me soul, how was I to know she was even in existence, much less expected by train or motor or Shanks* mare? Well, she’s here, so there’s the end of our mystery.” Barnes was slow in replying. He was doubting his own ears.

Each manufacturing operation must be done with expert skill and scientific precision. A highly perishable product must be handled with speed and care to avoid loss.

Alert wisdom and judgment must be used in getting stocks of goods into the open channels of demand through our four hundred branch houses. Branch house organizations must show activity and energy to sell at the market in the face of acute competi­ tion from other large packers, and hundreds of small ones.

That woman Is no Igtly's maid, and you’ve known all the time that she wns there." At four o'clock he set out alone, for j1 a tramp up the mountain road In I which the two men had been shot down. Hls mind was quite clear. Roon and Paul were1 not ordinary rob­ bers. They were, no doubt, honest men. He would have said that they were thieves bent on burglarizing , Green Fancy were It not for the dis­ closures of Miss Thackeray and the very convincing proof that they were not shot by the same'man. It was not beyond reason—Indeed, it was quite probable—that they wqre trying to cross the border; In that event their real operations would be confined to the Canadian side of the line. He could not free himself of the suspicion that Green Fancy possessed the key to the situation. Roon and bis companion could not have had the slightest interest In hls movements up to the Instant he encountered the young woman at the crossroads. His busy brnln suddenly suffered the shock of a distinct conclusion. Was she a fellow conspirator? Was she the In­ side worker at Green Fancy In a welllaid plan to rifle the place? Could it be possible that she was the confederate of these painstaking agents who lurked with sinister pa­ tience outside the very gates of the place called Green Fancy? His ramble carried him far beyond /he spot where Roon's body was found and where young Conley had come upon the tethered horses. Hls eager, curious gaze swept the forest to the left of the road in search of Green Fancy. ' Overcome by a rash, daring Impulse, he climbed over the stake and rider fence and sauntered among the big trees which so far had ob­ scured the house from view. The trees grew very thickly on the slope, and they were unusually large. He pro­ gressed deeper into the -wood. At the end of what must have been a mile he halted. There was no sign of habi­ tation, no indication thta man had ever penetrated so far Into the forest. As he was on the point of retracing hls steps toward the road hls gaze fell upon a huge moss-covered rock less than a hundr-cPyards away. He stared, and gradually it began to take the most astounding symmetry. Un- fonnefl into a substantial object of t:>- Gr.--n i'li'-y. gazed about as If startled hy some un­ expected, even alarming sound. For a secoud or two he held his breath, stunned Dy the amazing loveliness that was revealed to him. Then she dis­ covered him standing there. In a flash he realized that he was face to face with the stranger of the day before. He took two or three im­ pulsive steps forward, his hand going to hls hat—and then halted. Evident­ ly hls senses had deceived him. There was no smile lt^ her eyes—and yet he could have sworn that it was there an Instant before. Instead there was a level stare. “I am sorry If I startled—” he began. The figure of a man appeared as if discharged bodily from some magic tree-trunk, and stood ^irectly In bls path—a tall, rugged man In overalls was he, who held a spade In hls hand and eyed him InlmlcaHy. Without unother glance In hls direction the first and more pleasing vision turned on her heel and continued her stroll, sauntering off to the right her fair head once more bent in study, her back eloquently Indifferent to the g.ize that followed her. "Who do you want to see?" inqu'red the man with the spade. Before Barnes coul<X reply a hearty voice accosted hint from behind. He whiried and saw O'Dowd approaching, not rwefity yards .away. The Irish­ man's face wns aglow with pleasure. “I knew I couldn't be mistaken In the shape of you," he cried, advancing with outstretched hand. "You've got the breadth of a dockhand in your shoulders and the trimness of-a prize fighter in your waist” They shook hands. “I fear I am trespassing," said Barnes. Hls glance went over his shoulder as he spoke. The man w.th the spade had been swal­ lowed up by the earth 1 He could not have vanished more quickly in anj other way. Off among the trees were intermittent flashes of blue and white. “I am quite sure you are," said O’Dowd promptly but without a trace of unfriendliness in his manner. “Bedad. loving him as I do, I can’t help saying that Ourtla Is a bally old crank. Mind ye. I'd say it to hls face—I often do. for the matter of that Of course,” he went on seriously, "he is a sick man, poor devil. You see Fve known him for a dozen years and more, and he likes me, though God knows why, unless It may be that I once did hls son a good turn in London.” "Sufficient excuse for reparation, I should say," smiled Bnfnes. “I introduced the lad to me only sis­ ter," said O’Dowd, “and she kept him happy for the next ten years.

Barnes’ heart was still pounding rapidly ns he made the rueful admis­ sion that he "didn’t have a tiling to wear." He couldn’t think of accept­ ing tbe gracious invitation—^ "If they’ll take ine as I am,” began Barnes, doubtfully. “I say." called out O'Dowd to the sheriff, who was gazing longingly at the horses tethered at the bottom of the ♦slope, “would ye mind leading Mr. Barnes’ nag back to the Tavern? He Is stopping to dinner. And, while I think of It, are you satisfied, Mr. Sheriff, with the day’s work,? If not you will be welcome again at any time if ye'll only telephone a half minute In advance.” To Barnes he said: “We’ll send you down In the automobile to­ night. provided It has survived the day. We’re expecting the poor thing to die in its tracks at almost any In­ slant” Ten minutes later Barnes passed through the portals of Green Fancy. -------CHAPTER IX. i The First Wayfarer, the Second Way­ farer and the Spirit of Chivalry Ascendant.

Sympathy is one of the fine arts. It should enrich, not Impoverish; strengthen, not weaken; Inspire while it comforts. It Is easy enough to say you are sorry. It is easy to grieve with your friend over his trouble and pity him for his mishaps. But the sympathy which is a fine art does not encourage him to give way to despair. It stimu­ lates. It puts hope In place of heart­ ache. It points on and up. Do not wrong your friend with the sympathy which will make him feel like pitying himself. . Don’t Wait to Do Good Deeds.

Tbe meeting Fas well attended. Automobile loads from Barry county went from Hast­ ings, Woodland, Hickory Corners. Banfield, Creasy, Middleville and Freeport, making in all an attend­ ance from Barry county of 35 inter­ ested farmers. President Kedzie welcomed those assembled and brought out the point that there was a time when many of us considered that if we could get a chemical analysis of the soli showing the amount of nitrogen, phosphorus and potash contained In the soil, that we bad solved our prob­ lems. But today we are assembled to consider much more difficult prob- . lems than this. Professor Shaw, Dean of the Agri­ cultural Dep't, gave considerable figures as to the area of improved land in Michigan and asked this question, "Is there as much fertility in the land as when our forefathers came?” He brought out the point that they undoubtedly made money, first by sale of fertility, second by working overtime, third self-denial, and fourth by increase in value of the land. Mr. Woodman, county agent from Kalamazoo county, came next in the program and advanced the idea that the sandy type of soil is the problem in, southwestern Michigan. He be­ lieves the salvation of this land is in the raising of alfalfa. Dr. McCool at this point gave the results of demonstrations carried on in Van Buren county. These indi­ cated the necessity for lime and acid phosphate. Comparltive results In wheat showed a profit by the* use of lime of fourteen dollars per acre and on the following clover crop of fifteen dollars per acre. In the en­ tire demonstration the use of ferti­ lizers in the complete form of acid phosphate and f lime all showed a Droflt over cost of putting on and ma­ terial. • “Women" Va. “Ladles.” Tbe nuances of the English language seem to be as well understood by the person who advertised for “An aged woman to care for an elderly lady," j as by the southern darkey who. pre- I M-Utlnir himself nt the door of n Ono I| mnnnlnn. unwed: T. lookin' fo’ de culiud Indy what works fo' de white woman nt dis house."—Springfield Union. / Jews In English Cities. .

While he was trying to Invent a pre­ text for drawing her apart from the others she calmly ordered Van Dyke to relinquish his place on the couch beside her to Barnts. “Come and sit beside me, Mr. Barnes," she called out gayly. “I will not bite you or scratch you or harm you In any wny.

For a few minutes she chided him for his unseemly aversion. He was beginning to think that he had been mistaken In her motive, and thnt after nil she was merely satisfying her van­ ity.

O'Dowd walked out with Barnes, their arms linked—ns on a for­ mer occasion, Barnes recalled. “I'll ride out to the gate with you.” said the Irishman. “It's a winding, devious route the road takes through the trees." They came In time, after many “hair pins" and right angles, to the gate openln&upon the highway. Pete, got down froinrliie seat to release the pad­ locked chain,and throw open the gate. O’Dowd leaned closer to Barnes and lowered his voice. “See here, Barnes, Tm no fool, and for that reason I've got sense enough to know that you’re not either. I don’t .know what’s In ydur mind, nor what you’re trying to get into It If it Isn’t already there. But I’ll say this to you, man to* man: Don’t let your imagination get the better of your common sense. That's all. Take the tip from me." • “I am not Imagining anything, O’Dowd," said Barnes quietly. "What do you mean?" “I mean Just what I say. I'm giving you the tip for selfish reasons. If you make a bally fool of yourself. Hl have to see you through the worst of It— and It’s a Job I don’t relish. Ponder that, will ye. on the way home?" Barnes did ponder it on the way home. There was but one construc­ tion to put upon the remark: It was O'Dowd's way of letting him know that he could be depended upon for support if the worst came to pass. O’Dowd evidently bad not been decelved by the acting that masked the conversation on the couch. He knew that Miss Cameron had appealed to Barnes, and that the latter had prom­ ised to do everything In his power to help her.

Dear Mr. Felghner:— I have had a number , of letters from people -back there and up to now have not had time to answer them. 1 am going to write you, hoping that it will in a way answer several ques­ tions that have been asked. One thing, however, before this reaches you the people back home will know that practically all the American soldiers in France have been return­ ed to the States. Just yesterday we received orders that the welfare workers were to be demobilized and started for the States between now and tbe second of August.* From this it would seem that within a very short time France will have return­ ed quite to- herself so far as army visitors are concerned.

NowAll You Good Fellows, Come Fill Up Your Pipes Good Tires For There are just two kinds of tires—good tires, and others. Good tires last longest. They save time, trouble and temper. Also money. It will pay you to use them. We have exactly the ones for your Five types—one for every need of price or use. Better get in touch with us. United States Tires are Good Tires The Velvet tin is twice as big as shown here We know United States Tires are GOOD tires. F ever.men are “Tom” and “Bill” to each other, it’s when good pipes are a-going. If ever good pipes go their best, ’tis when Velvet’s in the bowl For Velvet is a mighty friendly smoke. Kentucky Burley is the leaf that Nature made for pipes. Wholesome and hearty, honest as the day. And Velvet is that same good Burley lea£ brought to mellow middle age. For eight long seasons Velvet “meditates” in wooden hogsheads, throwing off the rawness of “young” tobacco—truly “ageing in the wood.” Out Velvet comes—cool, calm and generous—the tobacco Nature made good, kept good and made better. . Velvet’s sweetness is the sweetness of good tobacco, not “put on” like “frosting” on a cake. Its mildness comes from natural ageing, not from having the life baked out Its fragrance is true tobacco fra­ grance, not a perfume. And Velvet makes an A Number One cigarette. Roll one. As good old Velvet Joe says: “Fill yo’ heart with friendly thoughts, Yo’ mouth with friendly smoke— An’ let the old world wag.” J. C. HURD RICE &, COLLES, DOWLING F. S.

If we would cultivate the habit of making a note of these things, we would get more pleasure out of the common experiences of everyday life and should soon master the secret of happiness.

CHANGING MANES IN MID AIR. ft THE FEAT OF THE CENTURY :: Runes. “Runes” were the letters of the al­ phabet used by the old Teutonic tribes. The word means hidden lore. The earliest runes were merely fanci­ ful signs supposed to possess mysteri­ ous power. The letters were even considered magical, and were cast into the air, written separately upon chips, to fall as fate determined, on a cloth and to be read by the Interpreters. The association of the runic letters with heathen superstitions caused the first Christian teachers to discourage their use.

If you persevere In spite of not succeeding, If you start again and act on the knowledge you have gained by your slip. It will not work you lasting injury. It is only when you surrender that you are reeJly beaten. There Is do such word as “all" to one who will not give up. Unicorn.

Sat­ urday we came down from the cot­ tage and went up to the house and took a bath. Then we made the hor­ rible discovery. that the only clean clothes we had down here was a pair of socks. Well, there was a dilem­ ma for you. what? Couldn’t very well go down to the train and back to the lake wearing only socks, could we? Of course, the girls down east are going without even socks, we read in the papers, but we guess they must wear something else, which lets them get by the cops, but here we were in socks and nothing. In a case like that, just what would you have done? Yep, that’s what we thought. And that’s just what we did. Sure. But you can bet If we take another bath this summer we’ll know where there’s something to put on afterward. Dearborn Independent.

Of course we all love green corn, and we admit that at 25 cents a doz­ en there’s some temptation to get it cheaper, but then, darn It all, we. ought not really to steal it. espec-l la’ly wholesale. Mrs. Dervln Gear­ hart tells us she heard four differ­ ent parties ’raiding her patch Mon­ day night, and she finally became so worked up that she set the dog on the last gang of raiders. She claims they need all the corn they are rais­ ing, as they have a cow and some pigs they want to feed It to, but that If anybody really must have It she will sell It at twelve cents a dozen, but she has drawn the line on having It swiped during the stilly hours of the night, In addition having her rest disturbed by the maurauders, so she has loaded the old musket and says the next gang she hears swip­ ing the toothsome sweet corn is go­ ing to hear a fourth of July celebra­ tion with fireworks accompaniment, and that some of the rockets are like­ ly to fall In the general direction of the cornfield. Henry Ford’s libel suit against the Chicago Tribune got him a Jot of satisfaction and six cents damages. Jury must hav^\thought about like the rest of the people did. that it was "Much Ado about Nothing”. Any­ way. it gave them both a way ot spending some cf their surplus mon­ ey, and the lawyers certainly enjoyed tho rich pickings. What we wonder Is If Henry will have to pay war tax on what he received for damages. That would be a blow. Like the per­ sistent violator of the speed law nt Detroit the other day who faced a stern judge and admitted his guilt, whereupon the judge sentenced him to six months and ten days in the conty jail. The p. surprised, asked the judge "What’s the extra ten days for?” The Judge never batted an eye as he said “War tax.” One man sells green corn on the street for 25 cents a dozen and claims it la worth that to raise it, and another man sells It for ten cents and says that’s all it is worth. We know which one It’s the easiest to believe. Only difference is, when one fellow needs to buy a new pair of shoes he’ll have the money to pay for ’em with, and we believe the oth­ er fellow will, too.

DEEDS Good Plowing Makes Prosperous Farms The source of your prosperity is in the productiveness of your farm. Whether you are a stock raiser, dairy farmer or grain grower, the fcey to your success is the production of the largest and best crop yields that you can get from your land. The firststep towards this production is plowing, good plowing, done in the right way at the right time. By using an Oliver No. 99 or No. 11 plow you can do the first step right. It enables you to do more good plowing in less time so that all the plowing is done at the right time. We keep these plows in stock. We know they are good plows, and if the hard ground of this fall is bothering you, we recommend them for these conditions. • W.

The Pink Sheet By URAY BAKER J (Copyright," 1919, by the McClure News­ paper Syndicate.) ' . One means of wresting a living from the world that Eleanor Ferguson ab­ horred above all others was prize light­ ing. She had never witnessed any pugi­ listic bouts, but she had heard enough concerning them to form a conclusion that they wfire brutal and savage and that no one who possessed the ves­ tige of self-respect could bring himself to engage in such an encounter. Consequently, when she found the man she most admired guzlrrg up at her serenely from a pink sporting page with the cognomen /‘Kid Gleason" stretched above his head the feeling of' disappointment—of well-nigh despair —that swept over her can well be un­ derstood. Eleanor came across the pink sheet while rummaging In the attic for some long-discarded household utensil that she suddenly felt the need of in prep­ aration for the party at which her en­ gagement was to be announced. The pink sheet had been used to wrap something in and she came across it quite by accident “To announce my engagement !“ The phrase had lost Its pleasant sound. Now it seemed more like the knelling of a church bell at a funeral. And the pink sheet was to blame for it all. If only she had stayed away from tho attic she would have continued In a happy frame of mind, she thought On the other hand, it would have been much worse to have become the bride of the man and then have the knowl­ edge of his means of livelihood sud­ denly thrust upon her—when it was too late. “A prize fighter!" she walled, and she seated herself crosslegged on the attic floor and burled her head in her arms and wept “Anything but a prize­ fighter! Why, be must be the most brutal of brutal beings. He can’t pos­ sess the slightest shred of human kind­ ness or sympathy. They never do.

Eleanor said to herself, firmly, as she accepted a seat from a gallant old gentleman who was* about ready to get off, and Albert located a strap that was-not in use. Most of the passengers hnd n hun­ gry look. It was nearly six o’clock and they Were bound home for the. evening meal. They were. Impatient, too. for the car was late, the line having been blocked by a* fallen trolley wire, and their spirits were low and their good nature all but goneGleason, towering above the rest, swung back and . forth as the car groaned around curves and he could not entirely control his feet, which he automatically shifted from time to time to maintain his equilibrium. ‘ On one of these occasions be trod • on the feet of a sour-vlsaged damsel, who occupied three-quarters of a seat, and carried a bulky package of meat on an arm and gazed savagely at the dim lights that were springing Into existence along the streets. “Keep your feet to yourselfI". she snapped at Gleason, and the latter doffed his hat and apologized. The operation of being polite upset Albert and he swung across the aisle and sat unceremoniously In the lap of a weaz­ ened little man who carried an. um­ brella and bad been glaring in appar­ ent deep-seated hatred at the world in general. “Get off, you big brute" the object of the unprovoked, unintended .assault ejaculated. “What you trying to dd, commit murder?" Albert smiled and apologized pro­ fusely, .but kept a secure grasp on the strap to avoid Incurring the enmity of a scrawny, middle-aged lady who wore, big glasses and kept fuming about the “impossible service" and who sat di­ rectly in the path of Gleason’s surging maneuvers. The temper of the passengers was not improve^ by s' sudden Jolting. At one end nnd OM fide the car rose In the air. hung atKRMBded for an Instant, then fell with a grinding Jar. The Im­ patient crowd gave vent to Its feelings In uncomplimentary remarks, and sev­ eral displayed enough curiosity to get off and Investigate, although none of those ensconced In seats risked losing their places. Soon the trouble, whatever It was, was remedied, and the car prepared to resume Its weary Jotfrney. “Ten minutes late already, nnd a gang-of hungry boarders howling for food.” rasped the aour-vlsaged damsel, scowling nt the foot which Gleason had trod upon. “Such rotten service!" growled tho weazened man, rubbing the knees that had been bruised by the “brute’s” at­ tack. "Pity they can’t get a person home In time to prevent starvation " ob­ served the sq-awny lady, glaring out a challenge for anytone to contradict, which no one did. “Ding! ding!" aald the conductor’s signal. “Clang I clang I" went the mo­ torman's bell, nnd the car lurched | away. But one of the passengers was I missing, nnd Elennor could not help noting the fact, for it wns Albert. Her home wns only three blocks away nnd dinner wns waiting when she arrived. She was vexed nt Albert, I aitht'ugh she admitted his desertion might be for the best because it I spared her an unpleasant duty. To her surprise, Albert came puffing Into the house '.hen the meal hnd been under way for perhaps ten minutes. “Pardon." he grinned, good-natured­ ly, “but the enr we were on ran over a dog and smashed him up pretty bad­ ly. The little girl who owned the ani­ mal was heartbroken, so 1 went Into her home with her and tried to make the pet comfortable.

That animal lost more than nine Ilves right there and be still livesJ* After dinner Albert and Eleanor went into the living room, while her parents obligingly retired to another part of the house. The first thing Al­ bert discerned on entering the room was the pink sporting page glaring up at him from the table. He greeted it . with nn exclamation of surprise. “Why, hello, here's old times," he beamed and clutched the paper, gazing at it with an expression of pleasure in his eyes. “The good old times." She saw that he evidently was sin­ cere, although she could not under­ stand. It was not the first perplexing problem of the evening. The dog epis<xle was so unlike a savage brute. “What do you mean—the good old times?" she asked. “Do you mean that you are not a fighter now?" He laughed. It was almost a roar. “1 should say not. I quit four years ago. I wns n successful pugilist, if I do say it myself; but I decided it wfts hardly the thing. So I got that Job as ribbon clerk at Hottstnnder's depart­ ment store.

He leaned forward, fixing Barnes with a pair of steady, earnest eyes. “Six months ago a certain royal house In Europe was despoiled of its Jewels, Its privy seal. Its most precious state documents and Its charter. They have been traced to the United States, I am here to recover them. That is the foundation of my. story, Mr. Barnes. “Without divulging the name of the bouse I will say that Its sympathies have been from the outset friendly to the entente allies—especially with France. There are two branches of the ruling family, one In power, the other practically io exile. The state Is a small one, but Its integrity is of tiie highest Its sons and daughters the continent. The present—or I of the family mentioned as being iu should say. die late ruler, for he died exile lent its support to lhe cause of on a field of battle not many months Germany not for moral reasoos but ago, had no direct heir.

' The di­ <<waa fighting, nor on whldb front he rect heir to the crown Is a cousin at the late prince. He Is now a prisoner of war in Austria. Other members of the family are held by the Bulgarians aa prisoners of war. It Is not stretch­ ing the imagination very far to pic­ ture them as already dead aud out of the way. At the close of the war, If Germany Is victorious, the crown will be placed upon the head of the pre­ tender branch. Are you following me?” “Yea," said Barnes, his nerves tin­ gling. He was beginning to see a great light “Almost under the noses of the forces left by the Teutonic allies to hold the Invaded territory the crown Jewels, charter and so forth, hereto­ fore mentioned, as they say In legal parlance, were surreptitiously removed from the palace and spirited away by persons loyal to the ruling branch of the family. As I have stated, I am en­ j gaged In the effort to recover them. i (TO BE CONTINUED.) j ] Triumph Over Selfishness. ‘ The toughest nut any man ever tried to crack is a selfish heart.

Keep yo’ puton airs an’ ‘ sauced-up” tobaccos for the fellow that likes nut sundaes better than home made So says a friend of ours named Velvet Joe. And he just about hits the nail on the head Velvet is made for men who think there’s no smoke like real tobacco. If you are that sort of man, listen: Velvet was bom in old Kentucky, where more than one good thing comes from. It was raised as carefully as any othei Kentucky thoroughbred. But the real secret of Velvet’s friendly qualities is its slow natural ageing in wooden hogsheads. Ageing in the wood never hurt anything—and least of all tobacco. And so we say, Velvet is good tobacco— nothing more or less. It runs second to none. The picture of the pipe on the tin needn't keep you from rolling a jim-dandy cigarette with Velvet Lfc. 15c Not 18 cent* But IS cent* Of all the tires that are made, why do you suppose we prefer to sell United States Tires?

Bankers throughout the country have contributed their time and money to an extent which enables their efforts to be classed as one of the deciding factors in winning the war. Profits have been sacrificed to loyalty and good citizenship by the bankres of the country to an extent which gives them a place in history that will be recogniz­ ed more and more as time goes on. ❖❖ UNDER STATE AND FEDERAL SUPERVISION M iCHIGAN .

I was met by the manager of the Western Tool Co. there and taken In his car to the factory where I inspected and pur­ chased the drill. We circled to the lake front and came home In Just 19 minutes.”—Grand Rapids Press. Mrs. Shields was also the first woman passenger to ride in the new Rose­ swift plane.

Duluth Is a wonder city and a most beautiful one. It is built on a hillside of solid rock, most gf the business section being at the foot of the hills, each street parallel with the harbor being on a higher ter­ race than the next one nearer tho harbor, while most of the residence section is located still higher up the hills, which rise to a height of many hundred feet above the water. The city is the largest shipping port on Lake Superior, has many big eleva­ tors and a big ship yard, besides in­ dustries, and with Superior, across the river, makes quite a metropolis. We left Duluth on the return trip Wednesday morning, coveting in the day time on our way back most of the territory which we had'passed in the nights on our way up, and ar­ rived at Sarnia Friday morning, where we transferred to a White Star line boat for the balance of the trip back to Detroit, completing an ideal summer outing trip. During al- the trip we enjoyed excellent meals, splendidly served, had the very best of accommodations, good entertainment, music, dancing, etc., and met many pleasant and congen­ ial people, so that we were genuinely sorry when the trip was completed. -Ov 8 45 O EO • AUG DO YOUR EYES TIRE EASILY?

Paula walked the length of the room and stood peering through the lacy fineness of the curtains. Her hus­ band's car was at the door; presently, he would come with his easy stride down the white stone step* of the en­ trance. His going each morning and his return at night were the events of Paula's day. Nothing else held for her the absorbing interest of thia pass­ ing glance of her husband’s -face and figure. Her vlnlet eyes would widen wist­ fully, or would overflow with tears, as she sat for moments after hl* depart­ ure. Sometimes her eager hoping waa rewarded by a covert glance In her hidden direction, but oftener her hus­ band passed on. resolutely albof. “How long was It to go on." she wondeted sadly, “this tragedy of the closed door?” In unspoken understanding they had accepted their solitary living apart­ ments upon either side of the long ball leading through the old mansion. This was after the blow bad fallen, destroy­ ing hope of happiness. Paula, at first, had believed that In­ jured pride was responsible for her sufferings; then came the heart-break­ ing realization of her love for David.

Why, her Up* had overflowed continually in snatches of joyous song a* she moved about in her new home, and David’s. Every gown she selected had been with a thought of pleasing David; Indeed, ev­ ery thought had been for him. She had Dot known the meaning of it all, because the fancy of an old Infatua­ tion still possessed her. She had been but a school girl when Teddy Van came courting. Opposition upon her parents' side but added to determination upon hers to be Teddy’s wife. He was a lovable youth, hl* very poverty gained for him her champion­ ship. And when affairs between the two promised to become serious. Paula's mother, tn defense, presented David Burns—irreproachable, success­ ful man of the world. Indignantly at first then stubbornly, Paula refused his attentions. Teddy was furious that another man should think of his Paula. Teddy told her to “hold out” against him and aU would be well. But in some unaccountable way, when Teddy had been for some time absent, Paula, overwhelmed by her mother’s Importunities, and influ­ enced by David Burn’s persistence, had married him, In a blaze of so­ ciety glory. Teddy wns forgotten In the happy months which followed. Old Dad alone wns still concerned, fearful lest mother’s persuasions had been unwise­ ly forced where love held sway. The blow which bad severed Paula’s happiness came In a well-meant letter from mother—a letter assuring Paula that tier Judgment in the choice of a husband for her daughter had been moat wise. “In your splendid home, with your fine social position." wrote mother, “you will realize that the love for Teddy Van, which seemed to you so serious, wns after all not the only thing worth having." And David bad read that letter—there was the tragedy. He bad opened It while Paula was out of town. His mother-in-law had Intended paying them a visit, as she had purposed, and was writing, advis­ ing them when to meet her at the sta­ tion. David desired to know the time of meeting, and read Instead of bls wife’s deception. When Pauls returned he had faced her with the accusation of love for another man while marrying him for material benefit. And poor Paula, beUevlng herself In the-ttjith of his ac­ cusation, could but turn dumbly from the hurt of her husband’s eyes. It was later, through' days of banish­ ment from his presence, that full knowledge came to her of her own deep love for him. But David had left her on the night of condemnation. "If your love Is not mine, neither are you mine, Paula." he had said, and then, resolutely, he had closed the door—the only door which gave pas­ sage through the halL Since then they had lived silently apart, unchanged only In the eyes of the world.

She was In the long room at twi­ light again, eager for her glimpse of her husband's coming.

Some Tires “Climb5 TNID you ever wonder why it is often so J—/ hard to “stay in the ruts” when driving over poor roads? Usually you will find the reason in your tires. Many so-called non-skid treads tend to “climb” up the sides of ruts—the fancy bumps and ridges of rubber on the sides of the tread act like the climbers which telephone linemen strap to their legs. HORSE-SHOE TIRES have no such tendency. They are anti-climb as well as anti-skid.

He Is a distant cousin of the crowd, and In a way remotely looked upon as the heir apparent. Later on he seques­ tered himself in Canada. Our agents In Europe learned but recently that while he pretends to be loyal to the ruling house he is actually scheming against It I have been ordered to run him to earth, for there Is every reason to believe that the men who secured the treasure have been duped Into regarding him as the avowed champion of the crown. Now. Mr. Barnes, without telling you how I have arrived at the conclusion, I am pre­ pared to state that I believe this man to be at Green Fancy, and that in time the loot—to use a harsh word—will be delivered to him there. I am here to get it, one w«y or another, when that comes to pass." “What led you to suspect that he is at Green Fancy, Mr. SprouseY* “History.

It Is wild that tbe man I am looklag for was a friend of young Curtis, who married a Miss O’Dowd In London— the Honorable Miss O’Dowd, daughter of an Irish peer and sister of the chnp you have met at Green Fancy.

VANDALISM TOO PREVALENT. The old-fashioned idea of “coop­ ing”.seems to be running wild, in Nabhville this year, more so than for some time past, and it has always been bad enough. The .depredations have become so serious of late that decided steps are being taken to put a stbp to 1L The depredations have not been confined to any particular part df town, by any means, but seem to have been the worst on the Hardendorf addition, where many Nash­ ville people own lots and ere trying to raise fruit and vegetables for their winter's use. ’The situation has be­ come so aggravating that an orga­ nization of property owners has been made to endeavor to get evidence against the parties -doing the steal­ ing and if found the depredators will be punished to the full extent of the law. One man had a young pear tree,' of which he was very proud, stripped of practically all Its fruit. He found out that two boys were the thieves and has let them off on prom­ ise of their parents to look after them in the future. Parents whose children fall to come home on time aftei school might do well to find out where they spend their time after school hours. But the thieving is not all done by children, by spy means, and the property owners are in hopes of trapping some of the old­ er ones who are stealing corn, squash, melons, and even potatoes, and If they succeed in finding any of the guilty parties they will be made an example of, as they should be. The village authorities, too, will lend all aid In their power to locate the guil­ ty parties and bring them to justice. The matter has assumed such propor­ tions that It can uo longer be light­ ly overlooked. quet of Ophelia roses.

Kleinhsu store, which was one of the best points of vantage, was soon crowded to its capacity with women and chlldtcn. Suddenly there was an awful crash, and the entire walk, in extent about twelve by- twenty feet, gave way under the enormous weight, precipitating tbe crowd into the cellar. In the neigh­ borhood of thirty women and chil­ dren went down wkh the walk and were piled up in an indiscriminate mass. Willing hands soon sprang to their assistance, and While those on top and unhurt extricated themselves as best they could, the bruised and mangletf forms of the Injured were brought out ’• and taken into the neighboring stores.

Well, now; here we are beginning our third year in the ministry here.

Don’t stir! Keep yom ears open.” Sprouse clutched his companion’s arm and, dropping to his knees In the thick underbrush, pulled the other down after him. Presently heavy footsteps ap­ proached. An unseen pedestrian passed within ten yards of them. They scarcely breathed until the sounds passed entirely out of hearing. Sprouse put his lips close to Barnes' ear. "Telegraph.” he whispered. ‘It’s a system they have of reporting to each other. There are two men patrolling the grounds near the house. You see what we're up against, Barnes. Do you still want to go on with it?” “I’ll stay by you," replied Barnes sturdily. Several minutes went by. There was not a sound save the restless pat­ ter of rain In the tree tops. At last the faraway thud of footsteps came to the ears of the tense listener. They drew nearer, louder, and once more seemed to be approaching the very spot where he crouched. Then came the sound of a dull, heavy blow, a hoarse gasp, a momen­ tary commotion in the shrubbery, and—again silence. Barnes’ blood ran cold. He waited for the next footfall of the passing man. It never came. A sharp whisper reachecf ills ears. “Come here—quick I" He floundered through the brush and almost fell prostrate over the kneel­ ing figure of a man. • . ’’Take care! Lend a hand,"^whis­ pered Sprouse. Dropping to his knees, Barnes felt for and touched wet, coarse garments, and gasped: “My God!. Have you killed Idin?” "Temporarily," ‘said Sprouse, between his teeth, “Hore, unwind the rope I’ve got around my waist. Take Putting that fellow out ot I queers forever afterward." He dropped to his knees and began searching over tbe ground with his' hands. “Here it is. 'You can’t see it, of -course, so I’ll tell you what It Is. A nice little block of sandalwood. I’ve already got his nice little hammer, so we'll aee what wo can raise jn the way of wireless chit-chat.” ’ Without the slightest hesitation he ntruck a successldn of quick, confident blows upon the block of wood. “By gad. you are a wonder I” “Wait till tomorrow before you say that,” replied Sprouse, sententiotisly, “Come along now. Stick to the troll. We’ve got to land the other one.” Turning sharply to the right, Sprouse'guided his companion through the brush for some distance, and once more came to a halt Againxbe stole on ahead, and as befofe the slow, con­ fident, even careless progress of a man ceased as abruptly as that of tbe comrade lay helpless In the thicket below. • Barnes laid a firm, detaining Imnd on the man’s shoulder. . “See here, Sprouse,” he whispered, •’It’s all very weR for you, knocking men over like this, but .just what .is your object? What does all this lead up to?” # Sprouse broke in, and there was not the slightest trace of emotion in bls whisper. “Quite right. You ought to know. I suppose you thought I was bringing you up here 'or a Romeo and Juliet tete-a-tete with the beautiful Miss Cameron—and for nothing else.

A moment later he was silently scaling the wall of the house, feeling his way carefully, testing every pre­ carious foothold, dragging himself painfully upwards by means of the most uncanny, animal-like strength and stealth. Barnes could not recall drawing a single breath from the instant the man left his side until the faintly luminous square above his head was obliterated by the black of his body as It wriggled over the ledge. We ,wlll follow Sprouse. When he crawled through the window and stood erect inside lhe room, he found him­ self confronted by a tall, shadowy fig­ ure, standing half-way betw&n him and the door.

' Mrs. Sarah Bailey gave a talk on what our part In world evan­ gelism would be in the future, saying that there was much intemperance existing in the world today, besides liquor, and the Woman's Christian Temperance Union still had much to do toward evangelizing the world. This was followed b> a lively dis­ cussion. Mrs. Elna Olmstead was in favor of all churches going together as one organization and working with the W. C. T. U. She thought more good could be done in that way. A few agreed with her. In union there Is strength. Another said it could not be done.

Some bygone lawmakers would have been In sympathy with the Brooklyn millionaire who maintains that nt 80 he was too old to be legally married. In Rome, under the Emperor Auguttua, a law was passed forbidding men to marry when they were over 60. and women when they were over 50. Peter the Great, also disapproved of senile marriage, and enacted that no marriage age contract should hold good if either of the contracting parties was over 80 at the time It was entered upon. The Old Name for Windsor. English royalty has resided at Wind­ sor castle ever since Edward the Con­ fessor built a hunting lodge Just at the place where there came a great curve in the gentle river. In his “Child's Guide to London,” Mr. A. A. Methley writes that the old name for the place was Wlndleshora or Wlndleshores, which may have meaqj “Wind­ ing shore,” from the curve of the river at this point Other say. however, that the word is derived from the * Baxon “Windle," a willow tree. Statement That Counts. Do not let the man who says, "This Is the year when I am going to show you how to farm It,r think that he will have all clear sailing.

The senior member of the factory firm, now sent its junior member to investigate. The errand was distaste­ ful to John Burfows. and he knew that his Influence here, would be as impo­ tent as it was against the evil power of the man, at the works. Small Tonle hailed hls visitor from hls cot stretched before the window. “Are you my father’s rich boss?" he demanded defiantly. “That depends," John Burrows an­ swered in hls quizzical way, “some­ times I think it is your father who Is my boss. How are the bruises T’ Tonle made a grimace. “Hurts every time I move," he said, “an* the visiting nurse has me all plas­ tered up. too. She," Tonle’s tone was contemptuous, “don't help much, but when Angela comes, she tells stories an' plays picture games with me an’ I forget all about IL Father likes Angela, too,” the boy added trium­ phantly. “He told her that he was sorry he threw me down stairs." John Burrows remembered having heard that the dreaded Antonio's wife had died some time ago; this Angela might be, perhaps, a coming stepmoth­ er for the boy; he was thinking over the possibility of gaining her Influence to conquer the stubborn spirit of the man, who peraislMtly sowed dissension among hls fellowsN So strong was hls power, that to dismiss him would mean a loss of valuable ?ollowers. And as John Burrows considered, the door opened and a girl came swiftly into the room. "Angela," cried, the boy, hls thin arms outstretched! T^ie head bent over Tonle’s was as dusky as hls own. and when the girl turned to look questlonlngly at Bur­ rows, her eyes were deep and dark. Admiration was In the gaze John Burrows gave her. Her face was like _a _ ____ ___flower __ ~ above the plainness glowing of jjcr dark t>lUe dress, “You are Tonle’s friend, I hear,” he said. The girl nodded, as she drew some bright picture cards from a bundle and spread them out before the Invalid. Then, mechanically almost, but with a radiant smile at the boy, she began her game. “I.” John Burrows told her. “am a Ouflcwn *Hie Preacher and tho‘Dog. No, we don't mean "The Preacher and the Bear." That is an old one aiiu you have all heard IL This is a bran new one. We told Rev. Chas. Hanks we yrouldn’t tell who it hap­ pened td, so w'e won't, but there was a Nashville preacher, and he some­ times sells automobiles as a side line, in order to have a little spending money for himself. And the dealer bad a second-hand car which he want­ ed to sell, so they fixed it up so It would run all right and the preacher started out to sell it. Well, ho got along over toward where the man he expected to sell the car to lived when the engine commenced spitting and missing, just like automobile engines will do sometimes, and the preacher didn't want to show tho car unless It was working all right, so he got out and fussed with it a while and he did fix it, so it just wouldn't run at all. Well, he fussed some more, and he finally gave it up and waited for some one to come along who would give him a ride home, and no­ body came, so he started for home afoot. After walking about half a mile he looked back, like Lot’s wife, and while be didn’t turn into a pillar of salt, he did make up his.mind he wasn't going to be a quitter, co he went back and went at that car again. He took it apart and he put it to­ gether again and he cleaned the spark plugs and he fussed with the coll and finally he had to give it up as a bad job, and started for home again. And here's where the deg gets into the story. This wasn’t just an ordinary dog, either. It was a bull dog, and he was real peeved about something, and he started for the preacher and the preacher- start­ ed. for the fence, and he made the fence in about ten flat, just ahead of the dog. And be stayed on the fence and the dog stayed on the ground and growled and tried to get at the preacher, who was just out of reach. Well, that preacher is some talker, and he talked real nice to the dog, but that didn’t do any good, then he talked real severe to the dog and that made matters worse. And no­ body came along who could help the dominie out of his predicament, and it was supper time and the preacher was hungry, but so was the dog. And there they stayed, until the dog final­ ly made up hls mind he wasn't going to have preacher for supper and went away. And after a long time, when the preacher thought the dog had had plenty of time to get hls supper and go to sleep, he climbed cautiously down off the fence and came home. And that’s all the story.

She was dark­ haired, blue-eyed, vital-appearing and smiling. “I'm not a bit afraid,” she told him, "and I love kiddles, especially sick ones.” So she had stayed on, and Anthony grew to look upon her as something necessary to the ward, like the flood of sunshine that poured down through the high south windows, or the flowers sent In every day from Mrs. Adding­ ton Gray’s greenhouses out on Long Island.

She was an orphan, too, and one rea­ son why she had taken np nursing was because she didn't have any one who belonged to her, either, up at the big city on the lakes. • “Well have to belong to each other.

He told Dr. Naylor about it later when he was having an examination, ,and the doctor bad glanced sharply down to the desk where she stood tak­ ing orders from the head nurse. And Just then there came the daily load of flowers into tbe ward, and Tlm­ mle'* brows drew together. Why didn't Mrs. Gray ever come herself to see them? he asked. Flow­ er* couldn’t talk, could they? And Dr. Naylor explained with a little smile around his keen gray eyes that Mrs. Addington Gray was very busy, that ; she lived a long way from New York, and that he thought it very kind ot ' her to senu the flowers In every day. | “Did you tell her to send them?" i Baked Timmie with sudden suspicion, i and the doctag acknowledged that he had, just when Winona esme op with Timmle’s two HtUs glasses of medi­ cine «nd caught the last fragment of their conversation.

"She's all alone like me, and no fath­ er or mother or anyone, and I don’t want you to marry that Mrs. Gray. I want you to marry my nurse.” "How do you know she'd have me, Tlmmle?” Tony asked in a low tone. And Timmie, fearless under the gray cloud that was folding around him, told him he kuew because Miss Bur* ton said she liked him best “We both said we liked you better than anybody else in the world." After the tired lids bad closed nnd Tlmmle was sleeping safely, Tony rose and looked at bls watch. It wus 8:15. He went downstairs to the telephone booth, where no one could hear him, and called up the nurses' registry club, where he knew Winona lived. She was in. He smiled at the surprise In her tone when she answered him. Yes, be said, Timmie was all right; doing fine. Didn't she think it would be a good Idea to take hl tn out to Edgewood for about a month?

They did not wait for the break of day. Taking O'Dowd’s hint, Barnes directed his steps straight out from the mouth of the quarry and pressed confidently onward. In answer to a question'she informed him that there were no fewer than twenty-five men in Green Fancy, all of them shrewd, reso­ lute and formidable. “I cannot, for the life of me, see why they took chances on inviting me to the house.

I have arranged a co-partnership with L. E.

Mr. Pratt’s experience as supervisor, merchant and farmer, eminently fits him for realty work and the handling of stocks of merchandise. Any farms, stock of merchandise or city property in this community now list­ ed with me or which may hereafter be listed with Mr. Pratt or myself, will receive our joint attention. My location, experience and advertising enable me to secure buyers from dif­ ferent parts of Michigan. Iowa, Illi­ nois, Ohio, Indiana and other states, for good farms and stocks ot mer­ chandise. My experience has con­ vinced me that people who have property to sell want good, reliable and efficient service, and are willing to pay tor such service commensurate with the service rendered. I do not wish to be understood or to con­ vey the idea that this arrangement will lessen my personal attention to business in this section, but rather that it will enable me to do morework at less cost than heretofore. 1 fully trust and believe that my cus­ tomers In Barry and Eaton counties will be glad to learn of this co-part­ nership, whereby they will be able to personally talk matters over with Mr. Pratt with full assurance that 1 will be made cognizant of their wants and requirements.

The man or woman who can earn $1,500 a year can rightfully claim that his or her brain is worth $30,000, and the man or woman who can earn $2,500 a year has a brain worth $50,000. I* is all a matter of capitalization of your Earning Power on a basis of 5^ per annum. A few months of Business Training in day or evening classes of the McLachlan Sdhool have multiplied the Earning Power of thousands of young people. Teachers give up positions paying from $400 to $800 a year to take a course in the M. B. U. A few months of Business Training enable them at once to command from $1,000 to $1,500 a year in business or Civil Service. High school students spend a few months in our school and do equally as well. Clerics, telephone operators and factory workers often double, triple or quad­ ruple their earning power by means of a thorough Business Training. Early in September one of our former students, Mr Forrest R. Stroud, who came to our school a few years ago from Douglas, Michigan, left for the Pacific Coast as an accountant for a Michigan manufacturing firm having branches in the West. He will receive a salary of $2,400 a year, with transportation paid for himself, his .amily and his household goods to the Coast. There is a scarcity of competent office help. The U. S. Government and business firms are bidding against each other for bookaeepers, stenographers, typists, calculating machine operators, telegraphers, auditors, accountants, efficiency experts, private secretaries, cost experts, correspondents, and executives. Over 300 M. B. U. Students Accepted Per­ manent Positions Since Jan. 1 A few yean from now those who have the initiative, the personality, the determination to succeed, and the strength of character will be counted among the substantial and influential men and women of the community. We have hundreds of letters on file from former graduates expressing their appreciation for the thorough training they received in our school which has enabled them to succeed in a Large way. Do You Want to Live—Not Merely Exist? Then do u thousands of other successful young men and women have done in the past 25 years take a thorough course of BUSINESS TRAINING in the M. B. U.

I They were a part of a family of I seven children, and their honie sur­ roundings were simply awful and; criminal. The home was a filthy, al-1 most unhabitable abode.' The eldest was being sent to school in filthy clothing, which wnn ho odorous as to compel his removal from the room, investigation revealed the condition at the hope, where everything de­ noted utter demoralization and desti-! tutlon. The youngest child, a babe of a few months, was filthy in th? ex­ treme, nnd the mother was if possi­ ble In a worse condition. While it is a sad thing to see such children sent to a state home, where they will be parted and farmed out, losing all knowledge of each other. It is infinitely better than the intoler­ able condition in which they were living. Rut this is not or should not be the end.

The above, from the Hastings Journal-Herald, tells a part of the I story, but not all. There are several | similar cases in almost every town, and we presume Hastings is not ex­ empt. And there will always be such cases until our marriage laws are so! amended that incompetent, irrespon- • slble people can not marry and raise | families, to become a burden upon the cbmraonwealth. Fathers who prefer a sack of candy to seeing their offspring properly fed, and mothers who prefer bright bits of ribbon and other gewgaws to healthful food and cleanliness for their babies should in the name of common sense be taboo This particular family has moved out of Nashville, which will be to Nashville’s benefit but some other town’s misfortune. They are not vicious or bad people: simply simple. More to be pitied than censured. And the laxity of the hymeneal regula­ tion is largelv responsible for this and many similar cases.

This growth has been 'a steady and constant increase from the time tbe bank was established in 1888 until the present time, and bids fair to continue right along. The bank is on .the "Honor Roll'i of state banka, having a surplus more than exceed­ ing its capital stock, besides a snug sum in undivided profits. This growth has not been made, however, without hard work and plenty of It, and as the business of the bank increases it has been found from time to time necessary' to make modern additions to Its working equipment. The latest, which will soon be installed, is a Burroughs posting machine, which will greatly simplify the work of keeping the ac­ counts and will give each and every depositor'and customer a monthly statement of his account whether he takes his bank book to the bank or not. The addition of the new machine is in keeping with the spirit of this progressive Institution, which is al­ ways foremost in adopting' modern and approved methods in the bank­ ing business. ONE OF THE REASONS. a Do you wonder why the govern­ ment can’t run the railroads and make them pay running* expenses? Has it ever occurred to you that some of the "running expenses’* are mere fol-de-rol? Just now a party of "experts” are making a trip over this part of the Michigan Central. They have two special cars, very fine, one a cafe coach %lth three colored men to do the cooking and serving, the other a specially equipped parlor cur. The cars stop a day here and half a day there. They are labeled "Valuation Department,” and their occupants are looking up the physical valuation of the railroad property. As though the railroad records do not show minutely every particle of property belonging to tbe road, this bunch of fellows, probably at good, fat salaries, are "looking It over”, very leisurely and particularly. Have you noticed that a party of high-priced surveyors goes over the line at least once, sometimes two or three times a year, making a survey of the lines? All a duplication of records already on file. And all done to give "somebody's darling” a fat summer snap at good wages. Isn’t the goverenment doing its full share toward the H. C. L.? How well we all know It. Give the freight and passenger rates another boost to help pay "expenses.” CASTLETON CENTER. Castleton Grange will have their opening meeting Friday evening, Oc­ tober 3.

Lyman Baxter can’t swim, but he' Is determined to learn. Started a natatorium down at creamery the other day, but they made him shut off the water, because there was too. much of It. Really, tyj was will­ ing, too, for he was in a position where he couldn't swim anyway, even If he knew how. He was doing some work on their piping, and he bad put a shut-off valve In to hold the water while he cut off a pipe. After he got the pipe cut. he started to get down, but his clothing caught on the shut-j off valve and pulled it open and an Inch stream of the water caught him [ right In the neck, and when he tried to get away from It he found that his clothing was firmly caught and he, couldn’t get away, so he started to swim and call for help. Some of the creamery employee got to the pipe and cut off the water before Baxter drowned, but he was so near It that it was thought for a time they would have to call up Charlotte and have the fire department bring over their pulmotor.

We don't believe i.t could have been a Nashville woman, because we don't believe any Nashville man would do such a thing as that. However, one never can tell, day ot Profiteering, what a fellow will do, and they say rents are awful high in Flint (and the town has a hard name, anyway—Flint) and if a fellow happened to find some woman who had a good room big enough for two. end all that, It’s just possible that it might happen.

Misunderstanding of Amer­ ican industrial organization, and of its benefits to mankind, leads to unrest, dissatisfaction, and radicalism. For example, the Federal Trade Commission tells the pub­ lic that the large packers had an agreed price for lard substitute (made of cotton-seed oil) It reproduces letters taken from the files of one of the packers, showing that such agreed price existed. But it failed to mention that the agreed price was deter­ mined at the request of and in co-operation with the Food Administration!

TIME CARD = NASHVILLE - MICHIGAN <1. F. BEMENT Bachfurco Your Raw Furs BACH FUR CO. HILL’S’ CASCARA QUININE WHY NOT MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS? Only farmers are still letting other interests take care of their affairs. Labor is organized and is asking and getting more pay and shorter hours. Big business is organized successfully for promotion and protection of its enter­ prises. Now both labor and big business are demanding cheaper food products. If this is to be brought about, the farmer frill have to pay the price again. He’ll have to work longer for less money to satisfy such a demand. Isn't it time farmers stood together in selfdefense? THE MICHIGAN STATE FARM BUREAU —is organized for business. It is an organization of fanner, for farmers, run by farmers. It works on a broad scale commercially, legislatively and educationally for betterment pf every phase of agriculture, linking up all farmers’ organizations and societies be­ hind its great program. —Early in November a membership campaign will be launched in Barry county to line up every progressive farmer in the county solidly behind the Michigan State Farm Bureau. —Acquaint yourself thoroughly with the farm bureau movement, you owe it to yourself, yourfamily, yourcommunity. Be ready to join with the majority of Michigan farmers in work for improve­ ment of farming conditions. Can You Afford to Stay Out? —Illinois farmers enrolled 75 per cent strong in the farm bureau. Ninety per cent of the farmers of Oakland county, where the Michigan drive began, are members. Support from the rest of the state looms as strong. For the first time in history agriculture of Michigan and the Nation will be welded solidly together to insiston a “square deal” for the farmers.

In her own home town there was a cur­ few that called the children in from the streets at nine o’clock, and she thought it, would be a good plan to have one here.

In the thigh it's sciatica; In the back, lumbago; In the nerves, neuritis. Gout, gravel, dropsy are uric trou­ bles. When you suspect the kidneys use Doan’s Kidney Pills— The home-recommended remedy. Nashville testimony Is the best proof. Read this Nashville man's story: George Franck, farmer, E. Main street, says: "I had rheumatic trou­ ble the worse way. It was all over my body and I couldn't put on my shoes. I was almost a cripple. The kidney secretions contained sediment and passed too frequently and were painful. I was in miserable shape and couldn’t work for six months. I used different medicines but they didn’t do me any good. I finally took Doan's Kidney Pills and after finishing two boxes, I was relieved. The kidney secretions passed natural­ ly and 1 was relieved of rheumatic pains. I never hesitate to recom­ mend Doan's Kidney Pills to anyone suffering as I did.” 60c, at qll dealers.

Good night—nnd good-by for the present Stick close to your room till morning and then beat it with her for New York. I give you two days' start, re­ member.” He switched off the light suddenly. There was no sound for many seconds, save the deep breathing ot the two men. Then. with Infinite caution, Sprouse turned the knob an'’, opened the door a half Inch or so. He left the room so abruptly that Barnes never quite got over the weird impression that he squeezed through that slender crack, and pulled It after him I Many minutes passed before he turned on the light The key of the box was tied to the wire grip. With trembling fingers be inserted it in the lock and hrienod the !!«.,», MA half-million dollars’ worth of nice lit­ tle things,” Sprouse had said! He did not close his eyes that night Daybreak found-him lying Id bed, with the box under hls pillow, a pistol at hand, and hls eyes wide open. He was In a gryver quandary than ever. Now that he had the treasure In his possession, what was he to do with it? He solved the breakfast problem by calling downstairs for a waiter and ordering coffee aud rolls and eggs sent up to hls room. Singularly enough the waiter solved the other and more dis­ turbing problem for him. “Some robbery last night." said that worthy. “Feller up In one of the cot­ tages at the sanatorium. All beat up something fierce they say.” “Up In— Where?’’ almost ' shouted Barnes, starting up. The man explained where the cot­ tages were situated. “Seems he was to leave by antq early this mornin’, and they dldn'* know anything was wrong till JoKeep—he's driving a car Mr. Norton i has for rent—till Joe’d been settln' out >° front for nearly half an hour.

Joe says he couldn't stand It, bc he snook out, abatin' like a leaf.” “Is—is the manS dead?" cried more’n a dozen plhces. What say?’’ “I—I didn’t say anything.” ' T thought you did. Well, If I hear anything more I’ll let you know.” Barnes listened nt the door until he heard the waiter clattering down the stairway, and then went swiftly down the hall to No. 90. Mr. Prosser was slq^plng just as soundly and as re­ soundingly as at midnight! “By gnd!” he mattered, half-aloud. Everything was as clear as day to him now. Bolting Into hls own room, he closed the door and stood stockstill for many minutes, trying to picture the scene in the cottage. He found a letter tn hls box when he went downstairs, after stuffing the tin box deep into hls pocket. Before he slit the envelope he knew that Sprouse was the writer. The message wis brief: “After due consideration, I feel that It would be a mistake for you to aban­ don your present duties at this time. It might be misunderstood. Stick to the company until something better turns up. With this thought in view I withdraw the two days’ limit menUwyd JflKBUy 12 and extend the time to one Week. Tours very truly, “J. H. WILSON." “Gnd, the fellow thinks of every­ thing." Paid Barnes to himself. “He Is positively uncanny.” He read between the Hues, and saw there a distinct warning. It had not occurred to him that hls plan to leave for New York that day with Miss Cam­ eron might be attended by disastrous results. But the jewels? What of them? He could not go gallivanting about the country ’••‘th a naif million dollars' worth of precious stones In hls posses­ sion. He spent the early part of the fore­ noon In wandering nervously about the hotel—upstairs and down. The Jewels. were locked In hls pack up­ stairs. He went up to bis room half a dozen times and almost Instantly walked down again, after satisfying himself that the pack had not been rifled. For the next t^ree days and nights rehearsals were In full swing, with scarcely a moment’s let-up. And so tiie time crept by, up to the night of the performance. Miss Cameron re­ mained In Ignorance of the close prox­ imity of the jewels, and the police of Crowndnle remained In even denser ignorance ns to the whereabouts of the man who robbed Mr. Hasselweln of all hls spare cash and an excellent gold watch. No time was lost by the countess in getting word to her compatriots In New York. Barnes posted a dozen let­ ters for her; each contained the tid­ ings of her safety and the assurance that she would soon follow in person. Those three days and nights were full of joy and enchantment for Barnes. He actually debased himself by wishing that r>? Ruahcroft com­ pany might find It imperative to go on rehearsing for weeks in that dim, en­ chanted temple. He sa't for hours In one of the most uncomfortable seats he had ever known, devouring jith hungry eyes the shadowy, interested face so close to hls own—and never tired. . On the afternoon of the dress re­ hearsal he led her. after an hour of almost insupportable repression, to the rear of the auditorium. Dropping Into the Seat beside her he blurted out, almost in anguish; “I can’t stand it any Inger. I can­ not bi near you without—why, I—I— well.

The drive is starting in Barry County Nov. 10.

FINE SPIRITED SESSION OF THE SUPERVISORS. How different from the old days are the sesiona of the buP^tv|bof8 in these times. Then the position of supervisor was regarded largely from a political standpoint and such of­ ficers were expected to vote and act on the board in such a manner as could best promote the fortunes of Avoid Extreme Views. the party. Extreme views are neve, just; some­ At the last session there was thing always turns up which disturbs seemingly no attempt to make party the calculations formed upon this data. capital. There was no division on par­ ty lines. The supervisors voted as —Disraeli. they thought for the best Interests of the county or 1L1L their __ respective , _ ownships. There was never a mo­ ment of friction or feeling on the board but a fine spirit of harmony which showed the good sense of the members, and their appreciation of the fact that they were there to do public business, not to make capital for political parties.—Hastings Ban­ ner.

But You Can’t Get Something For Nothing Everybody knows that So to supply necessary funds to carry on this great work the membership fee is set at $10.—$5 to the county bureau and $5 to the state. In Illinois 75 per cent of the farmers have enrolled in the farm bureau organi­ zation, which has a program identical to Michigan, but Michigan is going over the top closer to 100 per cent Oakland County with a 90 per cent enroll­ ment and Barry County are leading the way.

It might be defined as making a thing that isn't look as though it were, or making that which is look as though it were not. It was used liberally from orderly room to trenches. Its wash whs good for war. but should have no place in peace. We use this lotion on ourselves sometimes—see faults in others we can't see in our­ selves. We use it on the other fek loy. Paul called it "eye service." To catch attention of men. Don't coat over falseness, hypocrisy and pet­ ty selfishness with eyewash—most people see thiough.

The normal mind grasps readily the - bright things of life, while the dullard converts sunshine into gloom. Light and reason guide the foot­ steps of people with brains. But without brains there is no light, and no reason, and the footsteps just mill around without beginning and with­ out end. It is quite right and proper to love your neighbor as you Jove yourself, but don’t talk in your sleep if she is young a'nd handsome. Friendship difficult to obtain Is frequently the most lasting. That which comes easily goes quickly. The "windy" man is more noisy than brainy. So, also, is a pig. Christmas saving is again in full swing. And. in a few weeks, the spending will be a veritable blast. rWe All Aim To save enough while young to care for ourselves and families when our earning power is gone. There is no sure way of doing this unless we invest in life insurance. Life insurance is an investment not an expense. With a Life insur­ ance policy you are sure of the amount you have invested each year to use in old age or if as often happens we are taken by death early in life then EJ our families have the insurance money to keep Q I them from want If you have not good health Hl you cannot get life insurance.

On Thursday evening the . friends and neighbors ot Elmer Fish­ er gathered in his corn field and husked six acree of corn for him. while tbe women of the neighborhood got a fine supper for the men at Lyle Fisher's. To say that Elmer was surprised when he looked out the next morning and saw his corn all husked would be putting it mildly. On Saturday evening the same jolly crowd, with the addition of a few new recruits, met at Fred Peck’s and finished husking his corn for him. Here the ladies were also in evidence with lots of good things to eat and a fine supper was served. At both places music and visiting was enjoy­ ed by all. and all voted them very Sleasant evenings. Mr. Fisher and Frs. Peck had both been III for some time and were unable to get their corn husked.—Preaching next Sun­ day at 10.30.

DID YOU EVER FIGURE OUT WHY it is almost impossible to get compe­ tent farm help at any price? WHY so many boys and girls of the farms are leaving for the cities? • WHY the farmer always is hit first in at­ tempts to cut the cost of living? WHY it is so difficult to show profit on the right side of the farm ledger? The answer is easy—Every wise farmer knows it—It is simply that there has been no agency powerful enough to promote and protect efficiently the in­ terests of farming. But now-- THE MICHIGAN STATE FARM BUREAU —Is organized on a big basis and is ready to go to work for you. It is ready to meet your needs commercially, legisla­ tively and educationally, and to solve your problems. It is an organization of farmers, run by farmers fur farmers. For it to carry out its broad, vitaT program of making the busi­ ness of farming more profitable and attractive, it must have solid support from the farmers of Michigan.

English paper—“Miss Leitch played delightful golf up to the bole, but when once she had arrived there th. result was almost ludicrous, os, could not hit the ball truly with bur puttee.” Glasgow has a new "bug”. ■ It is­ n’t a political bug, either. It’s a naw kind of a bug, altogether. If no reason to doubt his word, thl» new bug that he discovered must be first cousin to a bolshevik, for he Is striking at the foundations of things. At least, C. L. claims the new Insect, or beetle, or whatever it is. Is actual­ ly eating the mortar out of his cel­ lar walls and blds fair to let his domicile.drop into the cellar. It can’t be a thirst bug. for this bug is eating his way out instead of Into the cellar, and C. L. claims there would be no reason for him to eat his way into his cellar, even if he was a thirst bug, which would go to in­ dicate that his is not one of the six best cellars. Honestly, we’re not fooling, at all. There actually Is some kind of a bug or Insect really eating the mortar out of the walls. Isn’t that silly? Who ever heard of such a thing? We know borers eat trees and logs,* and almost everything else, and we suppose there are mi­ crobes and germs that ".worm',* their way into almost everything, but when it comes to a bug eating mortar and stones, we pass him up. He’s too tough for us. Anyway, we hope they won’t find their way to our house. Whatever little stuff there is in our cellar, wet or. dry, we are go­ ing to need for our own use and we will not willingly divide with any darned bug. Castleton's township treasurer is a treasurer who believes in treas­ uring things, but we certainly hope she will be more careful of the town­ ship funds than she is of sugar. The story runs that during the recent sugar famine Edith came into pos­ sesion of some pears which she wanted to preserve. It takes sugar to preserve pears, and she had a lot to preserve pears, and she had a lot of pears, and no sugar. Well, shestarted out on a trip around and one merchant let her have one pound and another one two pounds and when she had made the rounds she thought she had enough to take care of the pears, but It was in a number of packages and it was confounded awkward to han­ dle. But she started for home with it and was getting along all right until she felt somethlngslipplng. You have heard of things dropping with "a dull, sickening thud,” haven’t you? Well, this was different. There was no thud about it. It was a sharp, vicious “spat,” as the sugar struck on the hard cement walk, but it was sickening, just the Same. We didn’t hear what Edith said, and we didn’t want to. And it isn’t any of our business, any way, what she said, nor yours either. But we are । sympathetic, just the same, and we’ll lend Miss Fleming some of our sugar if she didn’t have enough *for the pears, and that's the best can do. Suppose the world will ever return to the good old status •of pre­ war days? We believe it will, ___ ___ because nearly all the people we know hope it will and we believe the most of the people of the country are a good deal like the people we kno.v here around home. Common sense, the biggest asset of the American people, will work into command af­ ter a while, and we wfll all get into the harness and work together, just like we used to.

HE completion of the New York Connecting railroad gave us our drat nil-rail through route from New England, vie New York, to the rest of America and a continuous rail line up and down the Atlantic coast from Key West to Halifax. It also calls to mind the fact that insurmount­ able obstacle which had heretofore blocked the way had been overcome and the supposedly impossible accom­ plished. Before this route could be opened, It was necessary to get trains across that terror to navigators, the rockybottomed tidal, channel, known as “Hell Gate.” between Long Island shore and Ward’s Island in the Blast river, opposite Manhattan Island on which New York city proper stand*. It was not possible to, sink piers Into the channel, and the stretch was con­ sidered too great to be covered by one arched span. An engineer with vision came to the rescue and trains now cross on a wonderful four-tracked steel bridge. A peerless, steel arch, 1.­ 017 feet long, said to be the longest as well as the heaviest ever flung across any waterway of equal width, now bridges the gap. The entire weight Is carried by gigantic 250-foot high towers on either shore. The bridge is 93 feet wide, designed to car­ ry ,76.000 pounds per linear foot. Theextreme height ef the arch is more than 300 feet above the water. About 19.000 tons of steel were used. The towers are bedded In solid rock, and it Is estimated that they contain 3,000,000 cubic feet of masonry.

A wagon wouldn’t be a wagon without F wheels. It would be a sleigh or just a box. The wheels make the wagon go. They are. therefore, the moat important part of a wagon. And they stand the roughest usage of any part of the wagon. They carry a double load — a load on the hub and a load between the rim of the wheel and the ground. To stand this strain they have to be stronger than any other part of the wagon. And the hub must be the strongest part of the wheel it is the foundation of the wheel.

The Road—In New Overland 4 on Three-Point Cantilever Springs "V/OU expect a bad road to ride as it looks. It did, I until the introduction of the Overland 4 Springbase. Overland 4 does not change the road, but it doet change the manner in which you can ride on it. It gives you comfort instead of dis-comfort. It gives you a smooth, sailing sensation instead of bouncing and swaying. The Diagonal attachment of Three-Point Canti­ lever Springs at the ends of a 130-inch Springbase gives long wheel base road steadiness. YetOverland fS 4 retains all the advantages—lightness, econ- II omy,andeaseofhandling,oflOCt-inchwheelbase. Id V This means an altogether new standard of riding comfort, a noteworthy reduction in the wear and tear which lessens the efficiency of a car.

Some of us can­ not avoid a backward glance at the past, but it Is wrong to let memory rob us of the present happiness wc may and should enjoy. Last Bunday morning a surprise greeted the pastor and his son on entering the church, in the unwel­ come form of about a square yard of plaster which had fallen from the center of the colling and had not improved the looks of seats, floor or carpet. It seemed to say . pretty loudly, "The time is come for attend­ ing to the walls and celling". The 8. 8. superintendent has nom­ inated a committee to take the Christmas Entertainment program in­ to consideration.

Bump­ ing, twisting, swaying and vibrating are wonderfully lessened. The blows of the road seldom reach you. There is less ten­ dency to bodily fatigue after long rides. The springs of Overland 4 attached at the ends of a 130-incb Springbase give the riding comfort and road steadiness hereto­ fore possible only with cars of long wheel­ base and great weight, yet Overland 4 retains the light weight and economy advantages of 100-in ch wheel base. T Three-Point Cantilever Springs protect the car from the hammering and wear of road blows. They lengthen its life and redme upkeep costs. Equipment of Overland 4 isdepenc and complete from Auto-Lite Starting Lighting to Tillotson Carburetot. 250,000 miles of test have made the strength and endurance of this car a matter of record.

Eoery home in tne U. S. A. needs the cheering, soothing, refining influence of good music. But you want the best phonograph made — no other is good enough for your home, your family, your friends. How can you tell which is the best? Easy—if you use com­ mon sense. Difficult—if you trust to the claims of numerous manufacturers. Look for the man behind the phonograph—the brain that evolved it and perfected it. If you cannot discover any person­ ality behind an instrument you may well doubt its perfection. every Way it is superior to ordi­ nary phonographs and “talking machines ! ” shaoe and composition, are prac­ tically unbreakable and last for years and years 1 The tone has been pronounced superior to that of other wellknown phonographs by scores of phonograph experts after strik­ ing tests. The genuine Diamond Point Reproducer is permanent— no changing of needles.

An estimable Nashville lady, whose name we think had better not be mentioned, went over to Charlotte the other day to visit friends. When she left the train she picked up her travelling bag as a matter of course and took it with her. When her friends tailed at the station for hfir, she thought of something that she wanted to get out of the bag. but Imagine her consternation when she opened it to discover a briar pipe and a package of smoking tobacco, and then a set of very masuline sleeping garments. She slammed that grip shut just as quickly as she could and commenced to think. After a bit she decided to take the station agent Into her confidence, with the result that be opened the grip and went through it until he finally found the name of the owner. That known, a search of the city soon unearthed the owner, who had carried away the la­ dy's grip without knowing the dif­ ference and had not discovered bis error. An even trade was made and the lady Is still living with her own husband. Worms and indigestion causa 90 per cent of all livestock losses.

Is Just sending out Its fourth year's list of Christinas savings checks, and sev­ eral thousands of dollars will thus be turned over to the people ot Nahvilie and vicinity with which to do their Christmas shopping. And every recipient of one of those Christmas checks smiles and prepares to enlist for another one for the coming year, for their Christmas savings club Is a ▼ery popular Institution with the customers of the bank. The people ot this community are Justly proud of the Fanners and Merchants bark and often speak ot Its fine standing when away from town or when they have visitors from away. With a capital stock of >30,000. it has a surplus fund ot >35,000, and undivided profits ot >7,000. and It has been for several years on the “Honor Roll” of Michigan banks, an honor highly prised by the ' The Farmers and Merchants bank has for the thirty-one years ot Its ex­ istence been a progressive Institu­ tion, ever ready and willing to do all and everything in Its power for the welfare ot the community, ready to help in every crisis, and has been a haven of refuge to many a Nashville mercantile concern during hours of stress. It has seen, in those thirty-one years, many periods of hard times and panic, but never has it failed to be ready to pay spot cash to the de­ mands of its depositors, and It has a reputation for solidity and reliabil­ ity of which its officers, directors and stockholders has every reason to be proud. It Is a member of the Fed­ eral Reserve banking system which still further enhances Its already en­ viable financial‘position. They extend to their many friends the compliments ot the Yuletide season, and will be pleased to present them with a handsome calendar for 1920. In due season. The Postofllce Pharmacy A large, clean, airy, well-equipped drug and book store is the Postof­ fice Pharmacy, where so many peo­ ple make their holiday headquarters and where the geuial proprietor, C. H. Brown, .and his corps o( clerks, with the large and complete stock, make it such a satisfactory place to do Christmas shopping. The two big display windows, filled with such an attractive array of choice articles, are but an index to the interior of the place, where may be found every­ thing one could possibly expect to find in a drug and book store. Especially selected with an eye to the holiday tradfe, you will find an im­ posing array of all sorts of toilet sets, man|cure sets In wood, ebony and fancy mountings, in pretty cases, leather goods ot all kinds, Parisian ivory articles for milady's dressing table, music portfolios, kodak al­ bums, and a bewildering array of other useful and pretty gifts, some of them remarkably inexpensive. You will also find here a splendid stock of books in the latest fiction as well as the popular copyrights, fine box stationery, splendid line of per­ fumes, toilet waters, toilet prepara­ tions, cigar and smoking sets, a fine line of fountain pens, and an endles» array of pretty and usefularticlesparticularly appropriate for holiday gifts. Mr. Brown gives one and all a most cordial invitation to visit bis place during the holiday season, for he feels sure he can send you away well pleased with your bargains. He ex­ tends sincere good wishes for the Yuletide season, and hopes you won’t have to call on him for first aid af­ ter the Christmas dinner.

Win­ ter and summer are all alike to "Perk”. He’ll get you a home or a farm any old time of year. He haa enjoyed a very prosperous season and asks us to thank his many custo­ mers for their patronage, and to ex­ tend to one and all his most cordial good wishes tor their happiness dur­ ing the holiday season, and to assure them that he is always alert and ready to serve their best interests^ and to see that they get good valne' for their money. He aaya that now is a very good time for people who desire to sell to get their property listed, for he is looking for a rush of buyers in the late winter and early spring. - The popular Logan millinery es­ tablishment. nearly opposite the postoffice, is invitingly open to the ladles for their headquarters during the holiday season, and Mrs. Logan will be glad to see them, whether they are In the market for new mil­ linery Just now or not. She asks us to thank the ladies of Nashville and vicinity for the very liberal patron­ age they have given her in the past season, and extend to them for her the kindliest of the season's greet­ ings and good wishes.

As there are only two In the family, it seemed as though they were sure to have some spoiled apples on hand before long. "Might give them away for Christ* mas,” suggested the bead of the bouse. "That wouldn’t do at all," said the wife. "But Ill tell you what we will do. You know, there’s a lot of people we know who won’t think to send us SOUTH VERMONTVILLE.

It Is one of the prettiest legends of j ancient Britain—the old Christmas I story of lhe thorn of Glastonbury. | William of Malmesbury, the chronicler, I told It hundreds of years ago in his “Antiques of Glastonbury.” It Is re­ peated often at Christmas time in England. The legend tells bow Joseph of Arimatbea, was ho persecuted by Poutlus Pilate, because he bad laid away tbs body of Christ in bls sepulcher, that he fled to Gaul, carrying with him un­ der a cloth of mystical wblte samite, the Holy Grail. In Gaul be found the Apostle Philip, preaching to the heath­ en, aud he rested with him a few days. One night a radiant light awakened him, and an angel ba de him go to Britain and preach (he glad tidings to King Arvlgatrus; and. where a Christ­ mas miracle should come to pass, there to bhlld a church. He and a- band of followers fol­ lowed the Instructions of the angel, and Arvlgatrus gave them the Ule of Avalon, end hade them erect an altar there to the new God. It was a beau­ tiful gift. The tiny Isle lay warm In a verdant valley. Sparkling waves eoftly lapped Its shore. Soft breezes played, lulrs trees, and nowhere was the sky so blue as over Avalon. When they reached the top of the hill called Weary All. Joseph planted his thorn staff be had carried with him on his long journeys over land and sea. deep Into the ground, and Io It took root, and Immediately there blossomed a bush of beautiful white flowers. . “This la where we will build our , church," the good man said, and so. at Glastonbury Abbey—for so Avalon ; is 1 known today—the thorn bushes bloom white at each Christmas time. . lend their fragrance to the frosty air. i aud remind all who see them of the I Christmas miracle.

F. PFEIFFER (Copyright.) HE village chimes rang out a mellow strain clear and vibrant as pohlen beads dropped Into a crystal dish, but Adam Marsh drew his worn fur cap down closer about bin ears and acowllngly took a shortcut towards his desolate home. He bad neither chick nor child, only money. He hardened hia soul against yule­ tide suggestions and tried to glory In scooting the humanizing influence of haato, social friendship and "the folly called love!" Then he came to a sud­ den halt and sprang. behind a tree. There was a light in the room where be slept Against the lamp light there waa outlined the figure of a roughly dressed man standing at an open bu­ reau. Marsh stole to the kitchen, took down an ancient horse pistol. and, gliding to the doof of the lighted room, burst It in. "What are yon doing here?" he ahouted out. “Hands up!" It was rather a weak than an evil . face tfear confronted him. Its owner looked crestfallen, rather than sullen. "I—I was looking for something to eat," he stammered out. "That’s likely outside of the kitch­ en, Isn’t IL now!" snarled Marsh derisively. "Well then, finding nothing tn the kitchen I hoped 1 could pick up some llttfe trifle that would bring me a meal. Say. Tm not a genuine bad one. I never touched a cent that was not my own until thia very day. And this has so shamed me. that all I ask is strength to carry back what I took." "Yah!" jeered Marsh. "Sort of rob­ bing Peter to pay Paul, hey? Now then. HI run no risks of your turning on me. Empty your pockets," and rhe man disgorged a rusted jackknife and something that glowed with the glint of gold. “Back to yonder corner," ordered Marsh rasplngiy. "What’s this?" and his nimble fingers clutched a locket and chain the other had placed on the table. "It Isn’t yours. nor mine!" burst out the Intruder. "Say. I must take that back where It belongs. Listen to me. It was ten miles down the road. Id a wretched little hovel. In the front room was a pale, wearied woman at­ | tending to her sick husband. In a ' back room was a little angel of a girl j I had strangely found.- cherished and protected by her little child with his picture still In IL “My man." he said, “If you will take me to where you found the people you tell of. your dear ones shall have a Christmas, Indeed." "I’ll do that for nothing," half sobbed the penitent fellow. Little Cora Blair was sobbing In her mother’s arms aa Adam Marsh reached the doorstep -of the home of the unfortunates. He beard her say: "Oh. mamma, can’t we search for my pretty locket? Every night when I say my prayers and ask a blessing for the dear grandfather I have never seen, I shall miss seeing his picture." "Merry Christmas and—forgive­ ness!" spoke Adam Marsh, pushing the(door open. "Alice, Pve come to make up for my cruelty and. neglect" And when the penitent had falthfully returned from the village stores with a heaping basket full of Christmas cheer and. gifts for the little one Marsh Ind ordered, he started for the city with a warm, snug roll of bank notes In his hand. "Now for my own home and the Merry Christmas of my dear ones!" | he jubilated. “Oh.

LESSON OF CHRISTMAS DAY MY CHRISTMAS TREE. Example of Christ Should Inspire Un­ selfish n ess and Make Us Try to Remedy Faults. s Christmas should Inspire a world of unselfishness. The example before us Is almost too perfect, for It rather frightens us to attempt such divine heights of self-abnegation, but we can try. It will at least take us from the depths of selfishness, where most of us now are. Each Christmas day should teach us something of the lesson of the Holy Child's life. If we could learn from Christmas, today and In the succeeding year* the serious lessons of seif-betterment and ennoblement it has* to offer, how In­ finitely better It would be than just to look on it as a holiday for gifts and feasts, for extravagance and foolish­ ness. So take an hour or two off on Christmas day and give It up to retro­ spective and self-inspection. You will each find faults, If you judge yourself Impartially, for no one Is perfect Then make a serious determination to try to overcome those, faults, for only try­ ing to Improve Is there any growth tn character. If you are satisfied with yourself you stay just as you are with , all your faults and virtues. But If I yod try hard to remedy the faults your character Is constantly growing broader. This Is the lesson which ‘Christmas day has for each of you. Christ mas morn­ ing when 1 sleep-dust from my eyes I shake. 1 see a eight that And. oh.

KRAFT & SON GROCERIES In olden days they used to brine • boar’s head. smoking into the feast and drag the holly-grown Yule-log to the great fireplace with special cere monies. And years afterwards the custom was for bands of sweet-voiced boys to go from house to house on Christmas morning, standing grouped tn the street and singing carols of joy to ths mellow resonance of bells. And In grandfather’s time folks made up jolly, boisterous sleighing par­ ties, where all muffled up snugly and let out the horses, with the iron runners gilding swiftly over the hard* packed snow. . . . But Mollie and I live In a little house in town, where the sanitary depart­ ment keeps the streets swept clean of snow; where there are municipal rules against chopping down trees and no fireplaces la which to burn the ’.ogs, even If we had them; where the po­ liceman on the beat probably would arrest the Christmas cholristcrs if they came around nnd woke up the neigh­ borhood by singing early in the morn­ ing. . . .

The Price of Pork Chops and Bacon Here are reasons why the fine, fresh pork tenderloins and pork chops, or savory ham, or crinkly bacon, which you enjoy for break­ fast, cost much more per pound than the market quotation on live hogs which you read in the newspaper: An average hog weighs 220 pounds. Of this, only 70 per cent (154 pounds) is meat and lard. So, when we pay 15/ a pound for live hogs, we are really paying more than 21/ a pound for the meat which we will get from these animals, even after taking into account the value of the by-products. But people show a preference fixonly one-third of the whole—the pork chops, fancy bacon, and choice cuts from juicy hams. This means that when we are sell­ ing Premium bacon at 4316/ per p^und wholesale and Premium hams at 30/, there are other parts for which we get as low as 6/ or 8/ per pound. The net result is an average profit to us of less than 1/ a pound. The choice cuts are higher because of a demand for them. Another thing: Only 35 pounds of the entire hog—or about l/6th—is usually marketed at once. The rest must be pickled, cured, or smoked. This takes months, and adds to the costs which must be met.

To look at it no one would dream its hidden words are even now vibrating In the hearts of countless children, yet the charm its bright covers em­ brace is perennial.

W. Moore, a relative, some fifty years ago. is a letter in which the writer tells how the verses came to be written and bow it happened that they were eventually published. Mr. Moore lived at the time In a handsome house overlooking the Hud­ son, at Ninth avenue and Twentythird street Then Chelsea, like Green­ wich village, further south, was quite remote from the city. Each was large­ ly populated by the Dutch settlers from Nieuw Amsterdam. Living near his country seat was a portly, rubi­ cund Dutchman, who suggested to him the idea of making St Nicholas Christinas piece for his the hero of children. It was, however, with no thought of Its ever being published that Mr. Moore wrote the poem, but the lines were copied by a relative of the au­ thor in her album. From It another copy was made by a friend of hen from Troy. Some time later, much to the surprise of Dr. Moore, it was for the first time published tn a news­ paper. By such small chance was tills choice little poem saved for posterity. In those days there was no such celebration of Christmas as Is now the case, but Dr. Moore, having absorbed the ancient traditions of his Dutch neighbors, wove them into the poem for his children. He did more than that for he built up aroqnd the cen­ tral thought an Interpretation which has gradually come to be our own.

Arid I'm going to con­ fess right here thnt In spite of my skepticism I felt creepy. I also felt clearer in my own mind on many little things I'd noticed about Claire: her coming to my stateroom i that time; her constant hanging about me, even when sfte must have seen It was Inconvenient for me to have her; and the way she seemed so much of the latter part of the voyage trying to keep away from Mra.

Delario been telling Claire things till she got the child so nervous the doctor was really serious over her? Mrs. Delario was not at dinner that night and Claire left the table after the soup, and as I was busy packing I saw neither of them until morning, when all was bustle and excitement, for we’d passed the Statue of Liberty and were steaming up the bay and would be on dry land almost before we knew it And then we were banging over the rail and looking down at the friends of the passengers on the dock, and I heard Claire, in an agonised voice: “Mamma Isn't meeting me!" Claire began to cry, not boisterously but Id a dreadfully pathetic, lost-child way, Into a very beautiful French em­ broidered handkerchief, and all the customs inspectors gathered about her and she asked them each in turn If he’d seen mamma and described mam­ ma, and he shook his head and told her he’d help her look for mamma In a minute as soon as he got the baggage Inspected; and Mrs. Delario and I got our suitcases opened and made Claire open her bags and her trunk and we implored the inspectors to look at our meager belongings in a hurry and the Inspectors were all too busy asking Claire what her mother looked like and wbat hotel she stayed at; and Claire would use her exquisite hand­ kerchief on her more exquisite eyes and say .she supposed it was Hotel d’Angleterre—they always stopped at <TAngle: erres when they traveled. Finally I managed to induce an Inspec­ tor to take his eyes off Claire for a minute and devote them to the bag­ gage of a middleaged person—my­ self—and he cast a glance over my suitcase and Mrs. Deltrio's, which was open on a bench beside mine, and said. "That’s all right Where does the young lady come from, and isn’t it awful her mother isn’t here, and may­ be she’s met with an accident on the way and been killed."

Yes, I'd help her In everj reasonable way. “You mustn't labor under any false Impressions about me,” she went on. “I have a little property—not enough to support two people—and what I earn. I live here rent free—they pay the rent—the circle that moots here twice a week. I have the house much as a minister has his parsonage. If there were ever any scandal—if they burned me out from here—I’d be prac­ tically penniless. I couldn't make a fresh start with that hanging over me. And then my son!’’ I said. "Well, get the stones and TH look at them If you care to have me do that." She left me with a grateful smile, but returned so quickly that I rather guessed she had the stones on her person.’ It was a dingy little paste­ board box she'd come back with, fas­ tened with a common little elastic. She slipped the elastic and placed the box In my hand. I raised the lid. I gave one look at the contents, emptied out the stones Into my hand and—nearly fell off my chair! THE STONES I HELD WERE BLOOD-RED DIAMONDS! And there were seven of them—a stone you don’t see one of in a year, perhaps. Why, I didn’t know there were such stones in the heavens or the earth or the ’Tu'ors under the earth! Seven bloodred diamonds, absolutely flawless, firstwater gems, and perfectly matched to the last facet, rhe last gleam and twinkle In their radiant depths. I held them, almost frightened, and really didn’t hear what she whs saying till she remarked something about their being matched. . Matched! Well, they were matched this way: If an absolutely perfect me­ chanical mind with an absolutely per­ fect mechanical tool, working on abso­ lutely perfect substance can be con­ ceived, the.mind and the tool, work­ ing without variation, might have pro­ duced those seven stones. Yes—I should say they were matched! “I remember you told me once," she was prattling, “that the larger the stones the more Individual they be­ came and the harder they were to match.

In a' very old book we find thia reference to the use of evergreens at Christmas time: "Against the feast of Christ­ mas every man's house, as also their parish churches, were decked with holme, ivy, bayes. and whatsoever th* season of the year afforded to be green. The conduits and standard* at the streets were likewise garnished; among which I read that tn th* year 1414. by tempest of thunder and lightning, toward the morning of Can­ dlemas day, at the Leadenhall, In Cornhill, a standard of tree, being set up In the midst of the pavement, fast in the ground, nailed full of holme and tty, for disport of Christmas to ths people, was tom up and cast down by the malignant spirit (as was thought), and the stones of the pavement all about were cast In the streets and Into divers houses, so that the people wers sore aghast at the great tempest" HYMN FOR CHRISTMAS. TO TRIM A CHRISTMAS TREE Pretty Trimmings and Decorations Can Be Made in Almost Any Home at Slight Expens*. As to trimming the Christmas tree, first of all. don’t trim your tree with cotton batting and lighted candles, as there is always danger In this combi­ nation, nnd “safety first" should be the slogan In nil Christinas festivities. You can purchase h whole lot of pretty decorations for your tree nt the shops, nnd then* come -very cheaply, too. But almost any home can furnish the decorations for a really lovely tree without very much expend, and there Is no reason why every family where there are children should not have their Christmas tree.

The Farm Implement News, pub­ lished in Chicago, in its account of the recent convention of the Michi­ gan Implement Dealers' association, has the following to say regarding the action taken by the association in regard to Nashville's distlngulsheu citizen, who is called the father of the association: "Not the least important action was the Inauguration of a movement to nominate Cassius L. Glasgow, dealer st Nashville, Mich., and for many years active in public life as a member of the Michigan senate and as railroad commissioner, as candi­ date for governor of the state on the Republican ticket. On this question the convention unanimously adopted the following resolution: " ’We have a member of this as­ sociation whom we believe to be wor­ thy and well. qualified for the office of governor of our beloved state— a man whom we have tried and test­ ed and who has been tried and not found wanting in an Important state official position—a man who meas­ ures up to the highest ideals of Americanism—a man who is an hon­ or to our association and whom we delight to honor—a man who we be­ lieve will be satisfactory to the far­ mers and other business men of the state—and we hereby place in nomi­ nation for the ofllce of governor, Cassius L. Glasgow.' ” We suppose Mr. Glasgow will be peeved at the News for printing the above, but' it fits in so well with what we think of him, and comes at a time when it ever Michigan needs a sound, level-headed business man for gov­ ernor, that we are printing it just the same. And we won’t apologize next week for doing it, either. Glas­ gow for governor would just suit us, and we hope the implement men have started something that won't stop until it lands in ’the state house. FRANK C. BROWNE DEAD. Franklin Cash Browne Sr. passed out of this life at his home, north of the village of Nashville, at three o'clock a. m., the twelfth day of De­ cember. He had reached the age of eigh­ ty years and nine months, having lived on the farm where he died for fifty years. Surviving him are his wife. El­ eanor Downing Browne, and four children, Mrs. Minnie Sturgis of Chi­ cago. Clyde Browne of West Ver­ montville, Frank C. Browne Jr. of Grand Rapids and Mrs. Clifton G. Dyer of Detroit. Also seven grand­ children and two great-grandchil­ dren. Mr. Browne was a man of the highest integrity, a respected citizen and a devoted husband and father.

One thousand, nine hundred and nineteen years ago a child was born, of a virgin mother. Throughout the years which have flown since thia, memorable event we have celebrated the birth of that child. The halo which surrounded its lit­ tle bead has remained fixed in our memories through all the centuries of time, and will continue to be with us until time ceases to be. This child was the Christ—the son of God—who, as a man was nailed to the cross, and forgave his ene­ mies who crucified him there. Another year is drawing to a close, and the lessons learned from this good man are again brought forci­ bly to our minds at the Yuletide sea­ son or our rejoicing. As Christ forgave his enemies, so let us forgive ours, and forget the Injustices which they have done us. The harboring of ill will does good to no one. It may'do harm to many. But the greatest harm ot all is that which springs from a mind of hate and poisons the heart in which It finds lodgment. It kills the joy of life and fills the road to eternity with impassible bar­ riers, beyond which only the fit in mind and heart may go. At the Christmas of 1919 let us all forgive and forget, and begin the new year with joy in our hearts and good will toward all people. For Christ was the teacher of teachers, and his lessons are indeli­ bly stamped upon the pages of time. An English vicar and his curate had quarreled and the latter was re­ quested to find some other congre­ gation to minister to. The curate therefore preached his farewell ser­ mon. and the parishioners came in crowds to hear him. “My text,” he said, "is taken from the moving story of Abraham, "Tarry ye here1 with the ass, while I go yonder." ‘‘Wife ever get economical streak?” “She does. Only this summer she figured out she could save eight dol­ lars one week by doing her own housework.” "How did It work out?” ’ "She got a cook book.

Therefore. Margery being In business herself ami in tojich more or less with various phases of business affairs, decided to find such an opening for Jerry. Margery knew that Jerry was spend­ ing his days trying to find a position, and she realized how difficult it was for him, with his apparently limited ability, to locate a place that would pay a living wage und give promise for the future.
