Ciubfi usually leads to a desire by them for additional training in prep­ aration for a useful life, is the state­ ment made by the state club leader, who says that 188 former club mem­ bers are enrolled as four year stu­ dent* at Michigan State College, and 57 are short course students. While agriculture and home econ­ omics have the greatest appeal for these young men and women. 47 who have belonged to 4-H clubs are tak­ ing courses other than those two. The enrollment in agriculture is 70 and in home economics is 71. Almost one-third of the students enrolled in short courses at the col­ lege are former club members. These courses are designed to enable those who cannot spare long periods of time from their work to spend a few weeks in a study of the latest devel­ opments in agriculture. The former club members in college rank well as students and are active In the student groups on the campus, according to the state club leader, and many of them devote a part of their summer vacation in acting as local leaders for 4-H clubs In their communities.

Go to the polls Friday and cast your vote, whether it be for or against. The matter has been quite thoroughly discussed for the past few weeks, both at public meetings and on the streets, and now it is up to the voters to decide whether Castleton township has the school or whether it will go to Delton.

Christmas giving usually gives pleasure but Christmas gifts them­ selves bring difficulties in their wake oftentimes and from all reports Jim Howard, who conducts a general store over at Morgan, will agree with the latter statement, that is, if the re­ ports coming out of Morgan within the past few days are correct. In fact he is going to examine his gifts pretty carefully from now on, partic­ ularly before "using.” You see he had one of those packages of toilet preparations given him by Santa Claus or one of his representatives, with small packages in it for this and that and tubes also containing “this and that," and that's where the diffi­ culty developed. When he got ready to shave he thought he would use his “Chirstmus gif " and pulled out what he thought was a tube of shaving cream, but he didn’t put on his glasses and verify his snap judgment. No siree! He went right at the busines of shaving —or thought he did. But shades of night, this new fangled stuff didn't seem to lather. Another application, no lather yet! Business of getting glasses and giving the stuff the once over. Horrors! Shoe dressing! A look in the glass—down comes the curtain. We don’t know whether his wife ran him through the Maytag washer in conclusion or whether they used the polishing cloth and shined him up for the winter. But as we re­ marked, Mr. Howard is a little "skit­ tish’’ regarding "tubes" of toilet prep­ arations at the present time.

Philip Dahlhouser was the first of the trio and he remarked that he was married 37 years ago and went right over and subscribed for The News, had taken it ever since and always paid in advance. Wm. Haw­ blitz of Morgan said he has been mar­ ried that long and had taken The News even before he was married and had always paid in advance. The dean of the three was John Andrews of Nashville, who has been married for 55 years and always taken The News, and not only that but he read the first copy of The News.

Over one hundred Knights and their families and friends enjoyed a pot luck supper, followed by cards and dancing. The week previous members of Ivy lodge cleaned up the recently acquir­ ed club rooms, re-decorated the walls, and made several changes necessary to transforming the club rooms over to lodge rooms. The meeting held last week Tuesday was regular lodge night, but the Knights turn over the last meeting night in the month to "Family Night." Needless to say the Knights and the Pythian Sisters likewise are going to thoroughly enjoy their new hall, it being more spacious and better equipped to take care of a crowd. In addition to the lodge room proper, there is a billiard room and card room, open to the members. The K. of P.'s held their first closed session in their new hall on Tuesday of this week. Two Trunk Line Roads Pass Thru Nashville The News gathered on no less au­ thority than District Highway Com­ missioner Johnson, today that M-79 from Hastings was to be extended from that city to Vermontville, pass­ ing through Nashville and turning at Reed street. And also that M-13 (now M-43) will be extended from Ionia through to Battle Creek, pass­ ing through Nashville and connecting with the Battle Creek road south of the city. This, we understand, means the building of a new bridge over the Thornapple river north of town. These two trunk lines are to be im­ proved this summer and later will no doubt be paved. Mr. Johnson was conferring with city officials regard­ ing the snow removal from Main street. State plows will be operated on the street, but the city will be re­ quired to remove it. State funds, we understand, are available for the pur­ pose. With two trunk lines passing through the heart of the city, Nash­ ville will surely attract the motoring public. Youth Conference Largely Attended Saturday and Sunday were red let­ ter days in the local Evangelical church when the young people from the Kalamazoo District met for the purpose of developing character and leadership through music, instruction, inspirational addresses, social recrea­ tion and worship. There were delegates present from Jackson, Lansing. Ionia, Leighton, Grand Rapids. Woodland, Maple Grove, and about 40 young people from the local church attended the conference. The young people will not soon for­ get the recreational hour, under the leadership of Rev. George Spitler, when a variety of games were played. Nor will they soon forget the Fellow­ ship supper, when about 95 young people partook of a bounteous sup­ per. During this hour pep songs were sung by the different groups of delegates and by the whole delega­ tion. The Sunday services were services of worship and consecration. In the forenoon the young people of the church sang a special number, and Joseph Mix played a violin solo, ac­ companied by Patricia McNitL Prof. E. D. Rlebel spoke on the subject, "Going the Seocnd Mile.” In the af­ ternoon the devolionals were con­ ducted by Miss Etta Schneider of Woodland; Wendell Bassett gave a short talk on "'Evangelism'*; Eliza­ beth Penfold sang; Miss Bernita Bow­ man gave a rea/Iing; an orchestra from Leighton also gave a selection. After the address by Prof. Riebel, the young people consecrated themselves anew to the task of putting into prac­ tice the theme of the conference, "Ad­ venturing with Christ.” Twenty delegates were present from Jackson, twelve from Lansing, eight from Grand Rapids, four from Ionia, thirteen from Leighton, live from .Maple Grove, and five from Woodland. The Sunday services were more largely attended than the week day sessions. Checks to the amount of $32,965 were given the Davidson Woolen Mills of Eaton Rapids in the insurance ad­ justment for loss sustained when part of the plant waa recently burned. . NUMBER 26 Feighner Resigns As Field Manager of Michigan Press The Michigan Bulletin, official pub­ lication of The Michigan Press asso­ ciation, announces the resignation of Len W. Feighner of Nashville from the position of field manager as fol­ lows: “December 31 will close Field Man­ ager Feighner’s official connection with the Michigan Press association in that capacity, after a service of several years. His resignation was tendered to the executive committee at its meeting in Petoskey in May to take effect at the end of 1930. The resignation has been accepted by committee, but up to the present time his successor has not been chosen, at least not to our knowledge. The ex­ ecutive committee and the field man­ ager could not agree as to the meth­ ods of raising funds to cover the budget and in the interest of harmony the manager tendered his resigna­ tion.’’ . The executive committee is made up of Philip Rich of the Republican at Midland, E. J, Hanna of the Em­ met County Graphic at Harbor Springs. J. A. Sturgeon of the Delta Reporter of Gladstone, Romaine Mc­ Call of the Gratiot County Herald at Ithaca, and E. R. Eaton of the Recorii at Northville. The action of the committee in no wise reflects the opinion of the Mich­ igan Press as a whole, made up as ft is of nearly two hundred Michigan newspapers, a greater portion of which are aware of all that Mr. Feighner has done In building up the Michigan Press to its present high standard of high efficiency and mem­ bership. The News knows of no Michigan newspaperman who could or would give the wholehearted service that Mr. Feighner has and aim to give ALL the association members the benefit of that service. He has cater­ ed to the Press association as a whole and the association has prospered finely under his management. Here's to the continuation of this prosperity for the Michigan Press and the re­ tention of Mr. Feighner as field man­ ager. Watch Meeting Attracts Numbers About forty watched the old year out and the new year in at the Watch Meeting arranged for New Years eve at the Nashville Methodist church with an inspirational devotional ser­ vice and a beautiful candle-lighting ceremony for the closing of 1930 and the coming of 1931. At the first part of the service was the regular mid­ week Bible devotions with "The Par­ able of the Sower” as the ..topic. This was held in the church auditorium, after which the company repaired to the Community House where they played games and had refreshments. At 11:30 the return was made to the church auditorium for the candle­ lighting service. Twelve girls repre­ senting the months of the year were given candles and mere was one large candle which represented Christ as lighting the world. Rev. Mr. Francis lighted a candle from the large one just mentioned and then lighted the candles of the girls representing the months of the year. Each girl then lighted the candles of those in the congregation whose birthdays fell in the month she represented. And then when this was completed it was time to say "Happy New Year” and disperse. Millions of Fish Planted in Lakes The state fish hatcheries during the year 1930 planted 329,145.000 fish of various kinds in the inland waters of the state and tn Lakes Superior. Hur­ on, Michigan, and Saginaw' Bay. Thia was the largest annual plant in the history of fish propagation in Mich­ igan, according to the Conservation Of this number 5,480,000 were brook, brown and rainbow trout fin­ gerlings, throe months old. Nearly 9,000.000 six months old perch, 2,800­ 000 four months bluegills; and 800,­ 000 large mouth and small mouth black bass, figured in the total plant Test Well Completed; Water Is Plentiful The new test well, which has been drilled in an effort to secure a health­ ful drinking water for the city, has been completed, and at a depth of 51 feet a plentiful flow of water has been found. Chemical analysis as to its purity has not yet been obtained, but it is hoped that this well will be one of several that will give Nashville a water supply sufficient for all its needs. The test well has been drill­ ed in the rear of the Masonic Temple. NOTICE. I wish to call your attention to the statement of the Nashville State Bank, printed on another page of The Nashville News, as called for by the Commissioner of Banking at the close of business December 31, 1930. Not­ withstanding these trying times our Savings Deposits have increased since our statement made in September. We have also built up a cash reserve of $158,000.00.

The trouble started with the serving of a spoiled grapefruit, the Chinese mess boy was struck by a brass bar and lost sight of his eye. The story came from San Francisco, and had to do with the crew of the President Adams. "Oh, well, anything can happen," William A. Rowley would say to his friends when his friends told him to “cheer up" as he pored over figures representing other people's money at the city hall in Chicago. They would say "prosperity is just around the corner." And then it happened. An aunt left him $631,480. Elmer French, rural mail carrier, formerly postmaster at Hersey, has been putting up his own snow fences and expects in consequence to drive in comfort all winter, with his car. He used empty calcium chloride sacks which he got from the road com mos­ sion. and then set temporary posts, stretched two wires and fastened the sacks at the top and bottom. Fiddling 300 tunes without repeat­ ing is some stunt, but Samuel Ben­ nett of nmington. England, is making the rounds of the English pageants and giving fiddling exhibitions. His fiddle bears the date of 1640 and he can play 300 tunes from memory. His hat is more than 100 years old, and his smock with its Shakespeare scroll on the shoulders, is 70 years old. Police Sergeant Charles Mullen of Washington was called out on a shooting case one night and found he had to arrest his own son, who had shot and killed a friend in what was said to be an accident. It was an apartment house card party and the revolver had been produced in a friendly argument over a point in the game and went off in the scuffle. It was a hard thing to do and there were tears in his eyes as he took his son into custody. Cheerful news to the “fella” shov­ elling snow in large quantities is the story of toe pet bulldog. Danger, whose owner established a trust fund for him and who was reported recent­ ly on his way to Hot Springs, Ark., for a winter’s vacation on the profits of some of the securities placed with the banking institution in his behalf. He went alone in a crate. His owner, a Chicago business man, who couldn’t arrange his own affairs for a winter vacation, stayed at home. Warren Toogood, Coopersville stockman, is reported to have caught up with his horse after a several weeks’ effort, and a wild weit rodeo was necessary to turn the trick. The horse was a product of the western plains. He bought it because he liked its appearance in a pasture. Then it was a question of who was going to catch IL Toogood. his friends and neighbors failed in turn. Two lariat experts, after a chase through most of the morning and afternoon, were finally successful. The possibility of getting artificial silk from peat bogs Is being consider­ ed in Germany in a new mechanical and chemical process. During the World War. when all textiles became scarce, an attempt was made tn that country to produce material with thp fibrous matter of peat, but the ma­ terial proved hard and apt to break. It is also suggested that the 500,000 acres of moorland in southern Ba­ varia, being favorable for growing willows, be turned into osier planta­ tions. thereby providing to some ex­ tent the 220,000 cwt. of osier which Germany now imports annually. A former printer’s devil, a man who never went to college, recently became the eleventh president of the University of Misouri, at Columbia, Mo. Dr. Walter Williams, (his doc­ torate is honorary), founded the first school of journalism, and is regarded as the best known man in Missouri. He founded the school of journalism in that college and is still its head. He edited several publications, has been president of the National Edi­ torial association, the Missouri Edi­ torial association, the North Amer­ ican International Press congress and the Press Congress of the World. In a New York pawn shop rests a sixteenth century reliquary purported to contain a section ot the crown of thorns which Roman soldiers placed on the brow of Jesus before the cruci­ fixion. The art dealer who pawned it there attributes its ownership to Archduke Ludwig, brother-in-law of former Empress Zita. The sacred relic, if genuine, is one of the most interesting in the world and is said to have been held in the Austrian royal family since the sixteenth cen­ tury. It is set in a jewelled com­ partment surrounded by figures of the Virgin Mary. St John and angels. The compartment is lined with pearls and emeralds, one of 10 carats.

Jan. 1, 1931. Happy New Year, everybody’ I awoke in the New Year in Tampa, Florida. We had an all night’s rain, but old Sol put in his appearance this morning, and everything looks great. We left Eustis, Fla, after a three week's stay. The camp there was full and tourists turned away daily. We came thru Clermont and Lake­ land, enroute here. Lakeland is sure a beautiful southern city.. The frost reached almost here, killing plants and new garden truck. We passed a number of tomato fields yesterday that the frost had killed, although I think they got the best of the fruit on the Christmas market. Well, we are in the Fisher's Tourist camp for one wek only. We got the last empty qpttage out of one hundred and fifty. We received our 1931 li­ cense plates O. K. Others were wait­ ing for theirs. We had received no mail from home for Christmas at our leaving yesterday forenoon. It was not like Christmas back home. We had a camp fire at night till almost midnight. It was fun to watch the yuletide logs burn. There were fif­ teen families in camp, a real jolly bunch—all from the ice bound north. More tourists in Florida this year than last; so many in tents! You people who were never in the south to see the Old Year out and the New in surely have missed a treat. As the1 clock struck the last stroke of twelve the steamboat whistles and railroad engines and church bells pealed forth their music. There was music every­ where; the orchestras playing, as the hoofers beat time. There was the us­ ual drinking, perhaps no more than other years since the country went dry. Everybody happy that we could all turn the last leaf of a bad acting year. So the Kid New Year was ushered in to receive the battered old crown left by 1930. I have adopted new resolutions. I will al­ ways show gratitude for the kind­ nesses that others do me. I won’t grumble over my tasks I must per­ form. My sister and I started work at the grapefruit canning plant, but they shut down for the holidays. We show­ ed up again on Dec. 30 and they did not work, so we came away. We may return later today. We took a drive out to the Alifi river and w’atched them shuck oysters. We did not get any—too many ahead of us—but we bought some Revalia fish for supper. We did not like them. While out there I gathered some wire grass to weave some baskets. We also walked on top of the shell mound, supposed to have been built by the mound build- The papers in the south seem to think this depression will soon be lifted. God knows it sure needs to be. The day before Christmas a ten year old colored boy came into camp. He said to me: “Madam, have you work I can do? I am hungry; I have walk­ ed all the way from Orlando. I am an orphan boy.” I said, “I have no work, but I’ll give you a lunch.” So I gave him a lunch in a sack, and ten cents. He said, "Madam, you gave me a dime. You need not give me anything to eat. Oh. thank you. ma'm! thank you. ma’m!” If our white American children were half as polite! They use too much slang, and can’t even talk decent to their par­ ents, let alone strangers. Wherever you go the radio follows you. You can't read or write or sleep. Most people nowadays count what is left of a night when they retire, just a mere item. Sleep all forenoon: then keep others awake all night. I only wish you could see the beau­ tiful orange groves, with thousands of acres of fruit rotting on the ground. When the fanners can only receive 4 cents a crate, where is he, with all his work and fertilizer and taxes? Just like the farmers of the north with their crops. When they get nothing for theirs, they can't buy the fruit of the south. We leave here next Wed­ nesday for Arcadia to attend the Tin Can Tourists' convention. Then on Saturday we go on to Miami. Jan. 2, 1931.—The Morning Tribune stated the Charity body appeals for citrus fruit for needy families. It stated they were finding it hopelessly unable to provide food for the increas­ ing army of destitute here. People, I tell you, it’s surely alarming to see the multitude of unemployed walking on the highways. During the week before Christmas we had four day and nights' rain; then we had three nice days; then another day and night’s rain. During that period seven inch­ es of rain fell. Eustis lake raised eight inches during the holidaya Three men and a woman at Eustis planned a hunting trip near Sanford, about thirty miles from Eustis. They arrived at the woods and one man, the guide, said “I’ll try my gun to see if it’s all right" He stepped out of the car and up the bank; he stepped back and shot, and there he had spied a huge rattlesnake, coiled. It measur­ ed nearly twelve feet a diamond back. That was enough; the woman would­ n't go and begged the men not to, but they went and returned in a short time with four wild turkeys. I could have bought lovely turkeys right at my door for twenty-five cents a lb., but I had nothing large enough to cook it in. There is wonderful hunt­ ing in and around Sanford, and the Today is lovely after a very cool night The frost sure put the kink in flowers here. I don't know what kind of weather you Nashville people have, but I'll bet my old lid the har­ ness man, Mr. Wolcott, isn't slipping around thru the junk yard with a bunch of goldenrod under his arm. Instead he is rushing a coal scuttle, delivering ashes to the back alley. Sign paintcis are the ones that are reaping a-harvest this winter. A good sign painter makes all kinds of mon­ ey. Harry Reynolds, what did I teli you? I’ll draw this letter to a close. We are camping beside the largest man in the United States. He weighs nearly seven hundred pounds. His name is Jack Eckhart and he is wait­ ing for the Tampa fair.

To look at the sunny side of every­ thing and make your optimism come true. To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect on­ ly the best. To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own. To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achieve­ ments-of the future. To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile. To give so much time to the improve ment of yourself that you have no time to criticise others. To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble. —Christian D. Larson. GRANGE CRUSADE SPREADS FAST. The action of the National Grange In starting an energetic fight against objectionable billboards has been backed up heartily by the vote of numerous State Granges, representing nearly every section of the country, which have pledged themselves to ex­ ert all possible influence to rid both highways and fields of billboards, which are at once an eyesore on the landscape and a menace to highway safety. In consequence thousands of subordinate Granges will put the bill­ board subject upon their discussion program for 1931, and a tremendous rural sentiment against the billboard is certain to be created.

Following the election on January 2, at which the consolidated school question carried by quite a substan­ tial majority, the next step in the pro­ gram was the election of a school board to carry on the business of the new school. To this end a meeting was held last Thursday evening and the following men were named as candidates for the school offices: Frank Lentz, E. H. Lathrop, S. W. Smith, Dr. W. A. Vance and Dr. Orville Mater. As this meeting was deemed to be of an informal nature, a second meeting was called for Tuesday evening at the school building, for this same purpose, and the same list of names was con­ firmed. Members of the board will be elect­ ed. one for one year, two for two years and two for three years. The new board will have two very import­ ant duties: first to select the site for the new school building, and second to recommend the amount of the bond issue, probably around $70,000.00. Eligibility of Voters. Persons eligible to vote on the elec­ tion of school officers must possess the same qualification as those gov­ erning the election of January- 2. In case there is any doubt in this matter the following qualifications are here­ with reprinted: Absent voters can not vote: resi­ dents of Maple Grove township living in school district No. 1 frl. udll vote: residents living in Hastings township in school district No. 2 frL will vote; residents of No. 11 frl. school district Carlton and Castleton townships, can not vote; soldiers and soldiers' widows will vote; others exempt from taxes will not vote; man and wife holding joint deed or contract are voters. A voter swearing to his vote is respon­ sible for his action. Parents or guar­ dians of school children may vote. All voters to qualify must have resided in township for 90 days preceding the election. Registration for this elec­ tion is not required. It is a most important-matter that the men selected to carry on following the passing of the bond issue are of a caliber unafraid to say “no" and “yes" when the occasion arises, and there is little doubt but there will be many occasions for the judicious use of the two little words before the new school is functioning in a businesslike manner. •Our friends and neighbors in Mid­ dleville apparently have things pretty well organized in their school plan, and it is expected that building oper­ ations on .the new school building there will be started soon. Cost of New Building It is probable that the total cost of the new building and Its equipment will be in the neighborhood. of $105,­ 000.00. Of this, the Kellogg Founda­ tion will give one-third, or $35,000.00. Nashville has nearly half of the as­ sessed valuation of the township, so Nashville will pay nearly $35,000.00 of the $70,000.00 bond issue given by the consolidated district This will leave a little over $35,000,00 as the township's share, outside of the vil­ lage. for a school plant that will rep­ resent a value of $180,000.00 So the people living outside the village, who will be added to the new district, will be getting one-half of this investment, or over $90,000.00, by putting up a little more than $35,000.00. Getting over $90,000.00 for a little more than $35,000 is the smallest part of the benefit that the people of Cas­ tleton township outside the village will gain from this arrangement It will make them, with modern trans­ portation facilities, enjoy the same high school advantages as if they liv­ ed in Nashville. When the new school is in operation, every boy and girl in Castleton township can enjoy the •ad­ vantages of an up-to-date high school, and live in their own homes. That is the greatest benefit, one that win compensate many times over for the little additional tax incident to the consolidation. In addition to the regular school ad­ vantages, all the people of Castleton will have the special benefits that will be afforded by the local Health Unit, and the health instruction for their children, as planned by the Kellogg Foundation. The voters of Castleton can feel that they have done a great service for Barry county in that they will have helped to secure from the Kel­ logg Foundation this fine investment that they will be making in the con­ solidated school of Castleton town­ ship. MRS. BUCKMASTER DEAD. From Maple Grove comes word of the death of Mrs. Martha Buckmas­ ter. wife of Samuel Buckmaster, at the age of 76. Deceased was bom in Ohio, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John M. Goodrich, and died January 9 at the home of Otis Whitmore. The widower survives. Mrs. Buckmaster was well known and had many friends. The funeral services were conducted from the Wilcox church at 1:30 Sunday with Rev. Rhoades offic­ iating and music in charge of Mrs. DeBolt. The bearers were Fred Ful­ ler, W. C. Clark. Fred Hanes, Ray Bird. C. Decker and John Mason. Funeral arrangements by C. T. Hess A Son. Plenty of Water in New Test Well David Purchis, aged 87, passed away at the home of his son. Ed Pur­ chis, at Vermontville Friday morning about five o'clock, following an illness of two weeks. Mr. Purchis will be well remembered by the older resi­ dents of Nashville, having worked at the A. P. Holler mill for about ten years. Following this he moved to Vermontville, where he later became the village president, and at one time was justice of peace. In his early manhood, after moving to Vermont­ ville, he studied medicine, and prac­ ticed under Dr. SnelL Mr. Purchis leaves two half-sisters, Mrs. Wallace Heller of Cass City and Mrs. Carrie Aldrich of Grand Rapids, and one half-brother, Frank J. Purchis of Nashville. Funeral services were held from the Ward funeral home Sunday, with the Masonic order and American Legion having charge. Those attending the services from Nashville were Mr. and Mrs F. J. Purchis. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Purchis Jr., Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Cross and Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Mater. FIRE PREVENTION TOPIC OF NASHVILLE PTA PROGRAM. An interesting session dealing with Fire Prevention and fire demonstra­ tions was conducted at the Parent Teachers meeting held at the school house Monday evening. Mrs. Will Gibson, who recently attended the Mutual Fire Insurance meeting at Grand Rapids, brought to the parents a very worthwhile talk on the subject Mrs. Vandeventer and Gordon Ed­ monds gave a demonstration of what happens when a match or other spark is started in a room filled with dust. A representative from the Consumers Power company of Hastings was present, and talked on "Fire Preven­ tion from Gas and Electric Applianc­ es.” Mrs. Helen Butler and Gordon Edmonds discussed "Safety.” Mrs. Butler’s topic was “Safety in the Public Schools,” and Mr. Edmonds' “Sauety from the Driver's View­ point." Music was furnished by Joe Mix, violin .accompanied by Patricia McNitt. Mothers from the third and fourth grades served a lunch consist­ ing of fruit salad and cake. The fourth grade room received the book for January, having had the largest representation of parents present. The February meeting will be of interest to everyone, as arrangements have been made with a college to have their debating team present On New Years eve an Ovid lady parked her husband's 1930 Essex in front of a grocery while she shopped for supper. A minute or two later she left the store to find the car gone. In place of the Essex was a Mar­ quette coach stolen that day at Flint.

T mental alertness are promote'1 through strict adherence to funda­ mental dietary laws—and just as much stress is placed upon thl: building of bodily energy as is given to playing instructions in our workouts on the field. At Notre Dame, both the scrubs and members of the varsity football team are held to a strict diet throughout the playing season. While this is not at all an unusual practice in collegiate athletics, we do believe that our system of con­ ditioning is largely responsible for the success of the "Fighting Irish". In those special dishes which we prepare for our training table are included generous quantities of fruits, fibrous vegetables and those cereals that give a bulky “vegetable effect’*. Thus the normal secretional activities of the athlete’s body are promoted, and his system kept free from accumulated residues that induce both mental and phys­ ical inertia. Such a careful and rigorous schedule of diet brings real results. And it is imperative for the suc­ cess of our teams that it 'should.

Three new mem­ bers, Rose Ware, Edna Youngs and Effie Scott, were added to the club, and four visitors, Alice Calahan. Ce­ cile Kellogg. Anna Ritzman and Min­ nie Lusk, were present.

Masonic and Odd Fellow brothers in attendance. In token of the high regard in which he was held in his home community. Charles Edgar Roscoe was the son of John B. and Rebecca Spaulding Roecoe and was born in the township of Bellevue. Eaton county, on Jan. 2, 1850, being 81 years of age at the time of his death. He had eleven bro­ thers and sisters, of whom two bro­ thers and one sister are left to mourn his passing. In 1875 he was united in marriage to Helen M. Shepard, and to this union five children were born, one dying in infancy, and one passing away nine years ago. Immediate sur­ vivors are the widow, one son, two daughters, nine grandchildren, and three great-grandchildren, and there are numerous relatives besides. They came to Nashville in the spring of 1877 and Mr. Roscoe was first employed for four years by Hir­ am Dickinson at a sawmill where the Cook mill is now. later working for Philip Holler, who operated a grist mill where the Lass mill is. until fail­ ing health caused him to change em­ ployment. Then he engaged for many years in poultry buying and also sold farm implements in connection. In later years he worked as agent for a nursery company. At the time of his death he was serving his second term as justice of the peace for the village, and during his residence here had served nine years on the school board and two years or the village council, and so had been a very useful citizen. In the circles of the Evangelical church he will be greatly missed. He was an active member of the Evan­ gelical association and was class lead­ er for a period of 27 years. Mr. Roscoe was also active and loy­ al in fraternal work. He joined the Masonic fraternity in Bellevue 59 years ago and was transferred soon after to the Nashville lodge, F. & A. M., of which he was the oldest living member. He was also a member of Zion chapter, R. A. M., and of the Odd Fellow lodge. Rev. Bingaman of the Evangelical church officiated at the funeral ser­ vices, which were largely attended and were conducted from the home tn which Mr. and Mrs. Roscoe had lived during most of their Nashville resi­ dence. Mrs. Pauline Lykins sang, with accompaniment by Miss z'my Hartwell. Burial was made in Lake­ view cemetery, and the pall bearers were from the Masonic and Odd Fel­ low lodges and were Fred Potter, Lee Bailey. John Martens, Noah Wenger, Bert Miller and Gideon Gage. Those from out of town who at­ tended the funeral of Mr. Roscoe were the daughters, Miss Mabel Roscoe of Lansing and Miss Alic£ Roscoe of Yp­ silanti, Mrs. Charles Roscoe of Battle Creek, a daughter-in-law; Miss Ce­ cile M.

NUMBER 28 Consolidated School Board Now Elected | How About Nashville Battle Creek has a Three-Quarter Century club with 442 members. The purpose of the club, which was found­ ed in 1922, is the welfare of persons of an age too often neglected, for the renewing of old acquaintances, reviv­ ing pleasant memories and in many ways to promote good cheer and fel­ lowship. There are three clubs func­ tioning in Michigan at this time, the parent club in Battle Creek, the Washtenaw County Tribune club Ann Arbor of 431 members, and the Albion club of 122 members. What’s the matter with Nashville’s having a club? There is plenty of good active alert material in this com­ munity, many interesting personali­ ties in this group of over 75 years of age. Other communities have be­ come interested in establishing the movement which is steadily growing and tends to become national in scope. An invitation to membership has been extended to all meeting the age requirement in Bellevue or vicinity by this parent club in Battle Creek and the secretary and founder of the club, Charles H. Wheelock, that a chapter be formed in Bellevue. The club In Battle Creek meets each Saturday af­ ternoon in the John Harvey Kellogg hall in Battle Creek. • Nashville Opens Basketball Season With Bellevue Team. Bellevue high school basketball team beat the local team by a score of 17 to 11 at the opera house on Fri­ day evening of last week. Coach Johnson was well pleased with the showing the boys made against an all Senior team from Belle­ vue. The game furnished plenty of excitement to the fans, as Nashville led the Bellevue boys nearly all the first half. Inexperience and lack of conditioning proved to be fatal to the boys near the end of the game. If improvement continues in the next month as rapid as it did in the past, it looks as if Nashville might have the honor to boast of a strong basketball team in company with the past sport of football There were a large number of thrilled fans at the game, and everyone seemed to enjoy the performance, so when the next game comes along don’t forget to join the crowd. Starting line-up was: Mason, r. g.; Gage, 1. g.; Varney, c.; Couch, r f.; Navue, l. f. Substitutions: Wotring for Navue, Babcock for Gage. High point man: Mason, 5. F. J. Purchis Helps Print First issue of Nashville News Visiting The News office Friday to pay his subscription, F. J. Purchis, well known resident of Nashville, re­ marked that he helped with other young fellows of his day in getting off the first issue of The Nashville News, which was printed with a hand press. Reminiscing a little as the conversa­ tion went on, he referred to his more active days (he is now 78) when he operated his barber shop and with Will Hiar, now blind and living in Kalamazoo, played for all the parties, renting the opera house themselves. This opera house was then new, and is now being used as a basketball gym by the high school. Mr. Hiar, tho blind, can play 125 times. Mr. Pur­ chis’ violin has quite a history; it was picked up on the grounds where the Battle of the Wilderness was fought, but later, but that didn’t interfere with his winning the honors over thir­ ty or forty others playing in a con­ test at the Kalamazoo Masonic hall five years ago and he brought home the medal all right. His brother, David Purchis, who has just died at Vermontville, was the leader of the first cornet band in Nashville, and John Roe director, with 24 or 25 men playing, F. J. Purchis being one of them. He has played any number of instruments and he still keeps his old violin. Mr. Purchis is a very interest­ ing visitor and remains youthful and ■ alert. At Brotherhood Meeting. Five Member* Will Constitute New Board—Three from Country, Two from Town—Light Vote Cast. It was with little opposition that the new consolidated school board was elected last Saturday. The men named at the informal meeting held last Thursday evening and confirmed . at the second meeting Tuesday even­ ing, and who were elected as the new board, are as follows: 1 year, E. H. Lathrop. 2 years, Dr. W. A. Vance. 2 years. Dr. Orville Mater. 3 years, S. W. Smith. 3 years, Frank C. Lentz. The vote cast was very light com­ pared to the one cast January 2, at which the consolidated school question was carried by a majority of 212. The total vote cast Saturday was 446, 316 in Precinct No. 1. and 130 in Pre­ cinct No. 2. Lathrop received 301­ 125; Vance. 303-125; Mater. 290-114; Smith 301-120; Lentz. 297-121. There were some scattering votes and sev­ eral spoiled ballots. Functions of New Board. The new consolidated school board it was expected would meet last even­ ing and perfect an organization. The next step in the program will be the selecting of the site for the new school building, determining the size of the building, and the amount of the bond issue, probably around 370,000. It is conceded that the men selected • to Qll the school offices are men with experience and are capable of carry­ ing out the program to its successful completion. Men of mature judgment who are past the “squabbling” age and will work in harmony to fulfill this great project. The Bond Issue. The final step in this project will be the bonding issue to be voted prob­ ably at the annual township election, but the date is not cartain. as yet, and there may be a third special election called to care for this matter. It is conceded that with the success attain­ ed thus far, the bonding issue will be carried without serious difficulty. Other Townships Want Schools. It is understood that the townships of Hope, Barry, Orangeville and Prairieville are desirous of interesting the Kellogg Foundation in the estab­ lishing of a school for these town­ ships. It is said that petitions have been circulated in about twenty school districts, Including the village of Delton.. It is thought that a 390,­ 000 building will answer for this con­ solidated district, if it is formed. The excellent consolidated school that has been in operation at Wood­ land for a number of years and the one which the people of Castleton have just voted for this township, will the county, Middleville with its con­ solidated school can take care of the northwestern part of the county. The city of Hastings is the natural school location for the central portion of the county. The people of the southwest­ ern part of the county feel that their children should have the advantages offered the children of other sections of the county, and to this end are tak­ ing the preliminary steps to secure same. Whether the Kellogg Founda­ tion will be interested ” in either of them is problematical. Navy Recruiting in Michigan 4,534 zXpplicants in 1930. Max Silverman, U. S. Navy, Medical Officer, attached to the Navy Re­ cruiting Station, Detroit, 4,534 men applied for enlistment in the United States Navy in Detroit and the State of Michigan during 1930. Of that number only 263 were enlisted. There were 3,994 rejected for the following reasons: defective teeth 40 per cent; flat feet 15 per cent; defective vision 12 per cent; color blindness 5 per cent; various other reasons, such aa insufficient education, police records, and other physical and mental dis­ qualifications comprise the other 28 per cent. "Resolved that the several states should enact legislation providing for compulsory unemployment insurance to which the employer shall contrib­ ute," is the question which is to be de­ bated in the Nashville high schgol, February 9, by the men’s debate teams of Hope college and of Mich­ igan State college. The unemployment problem is the most difficu^T^problem we have to solve today/ One of the proposed so­ lutions is the one of unemploypjent insurance. An unemployment insurance bill will be presented to the legislature, which is now in session. The case will be discussed by two people on each team. Each member will give a twelve minute constructive speech and a five minute rebuttal. At the close of the debate an audience vote will be taken to decide the win- The Hastings Brotherhood meeting was held pn Monday evening, January 19, and proved to be a success. The usual large delegation was in attend­ ance to hear the comparatively new president of the University of Mich­ igan, Alexander G. Ruthven, who spoke on “The University,” endeavor­ ing to tell the folks present what this institution is and what it is endeavor­ ing to accomplish. He showed some of the problems of the campus and said that they were equipped to do as fine a piece of work as any other uni­ versity in the states, turning out the best equipped men and women possi­ ble from the material that the homes send to them.

(Continued on last page) ♦ Saranac Dedicates | J Fine New School J On anbther page of The News is printed a cut of the new $85,000 school building recently dedicated at Saranac in Ionia county. This build­ ing is complete and most modern in every way. The old school building wels torn down to provide a site for the new school. Started on May 29. when con­ tracts were let for its construction, the building was not scheduled for completion untif January 15, but was pushed forward with such progress that first classes were transferred to it early in December. For many years to come the Sara­ nac school will stand as a monument to the ability of its architects, the in­ tegrity of its contractors, the far­ sighted vision of the school board, but most of all as an indication of the fine public spirit of the taxpayers who have made it possible. Dairy Herd Assn. Hastings, Jan. 29 Annual Meeting To Be Held at Court House At 1:00 O'clock P. M., Standard Time. Barry County Dairy Herd Improve­ ment association will have its annual meeting at the Hastings court house on Thursday. January 29th, at 1:00 o'clock p. m.. slow time. Mr. Foster, County Agricultural Agent, urges all members to be present. The association has enjoyed a very satisfactory year with the work of Leslie Raber, tester, in charge. Twen­ ty-one Barry county herds have had Mr. Raber's services in the associa­ tion. Mr. Clare Nelson, D. H. I. A. Spe­ cialist, Michigan State college, will be in attendance at the meeting to give an hour's study course on the Herd Book. Mr. Nelson will show the things of interest and value that the herd book will reveal to the Cow Testing association member. This study hour is placed on the program with the regular order of business, as Mr. Foster realizes many cow testing association members are not aware of the valuable information contained in their herd books. Every member is urged to bring their herd books to the meeting. *The association is now being organ­ ized for this year. Any dairyman in­ terested in Cow Testing association work should attend this meeting or get in touch with Mr. Foster, County Agricultural Agent. There is oppor­ tunity for a few more herds to be en­ tered in this year's work.

HOLD THEIR SHOWS FINE RECORD Rehearsals Now Being Held For Tills REGULARJAN,MEETING Pleasing Operetta at Star Many Important Mattera Handled Most Efficiently, Economically And Expeditiously. BUSINESS ON INCREASE Full Report For 1980 Is Made By Probate Judge Ella C. Eggleeton Nashville and vicinity are very proud of the very excellent record made at all times by its former resi­ dent, Ella C. Eggleston, Probate Judge of Barry county, who con­ stantly handles a large volume of in­ creasingly important matters, effic­ iently, practically and expeditiously, with the assistance of Stuart Clem­ ent, her probate register. Just one instance of the practicability of hand­ ling matters in this court, is that of the afflicted adults who in the. ap­ pended report number but two for the University hospital, Ann Arbor, but that is not the whole story. There were 20 or 25 of these cases in the past year. It was found that as long as these were county charges they could be cared for at the local hospi­ tal at a much lower rate than at the University hospital and have the charges returned here to the county for payment. So these who are cared for locally are not listed, just the few who need a court order. This is just one of the many items in which Judge Eggleston s economical and ef­ ficient administration is evidenced. Probate business for year 1930 as reported by judge Eggleston follows: General Probate Division. No. new cases entered, 182. No. of administrators appointed, 73. No. of wills entered. 36.

Get As Much Milk With One Protein Possibility of Cheaper Dairy Rations Indicated By College Feeding Trials. One high-protein concentrate is just as good for balancing a dairy cow's ration of home grown grains as any number or combination of these highproteins, according to the results of experimental feeding trials with the dairy herd at Michigan State college. A ration made up of corn, oats, and barley plus cottonseed meal and al­ falfa leaves produced as many pounds of milk as a complex ration made up of corn, oats, and barley plus cotton­ seed meal, linseed meal, gluten meal, and wheat bran. Alfalfa hay and corn silage was fed with each ration. In mixing the ration the amounts of concentrates were chosen so the total percentage of proteins in the completed rations was the same whe­ ther one or several of the high-pro­ teins was used in the mixture. Present low prices for dairy pro­ ducts make it imperative for the dairyman to cut production costs to as low & level as possible and, if the herd owner can mix a cheaper ration with one high-protein concentrate in­ stead of several, the college dairy de­ partment recommends that the simple ration be used. The annual Fanners Week circus, which last year entertained 6,000 peo­ ple. is scheduled for Thursday night, February 5, and the ring master this year promises bigger and better acts which culminate with a contest for a world's record in horse pulling. One of the features is a relay race on horseback in which one team rep­ resents the county agricultural agents and the other the college staff. The college furnishes the horses, and, to insure thet none of the animals will be injured, good durable specimens of horseflesh are to be used and the rid­ ers will have to take their own chan­ ces on getting into and out of the FARM BUREAU AND GRANGERS saddles.

Experts who have been advising farmers how to conduct their business win have a chance to see how closely their ideas coincide with those of the farm owners themselves when five prominent Michigan fanners who rep­ resent five different lines of farm work speak on the evening program, February 4, Farmers Week, at Mich­ igan State college. The men, E. P. Reynolds, Olivet, dairyman; Otto Wegner, Riga, live­ stock producer; George DuVail, Fenn­ ville, fruit grower; E. W. Ruehs, Cal­ edonia, and Fritz Mantey, Fairgrove, grain and seed grower, have success­ fully conducted their lines of work during a period when the agricultural situation has been far from attrac­ tive, and their explanation of busi­ ness methods will be one of the fea­ tures of Farmers Week. Mr. Reynolds will be at home on the platform as he was a professor at Olivet college before engaging in the dairy business. He explains his suc­ cess by stating that he follows good practices. George DuVail is not pes­ simistic about fruit growing. He has young orchards equal in area to the bearing orchards which he owns. E. W. Ruehs grows good crops as well as livestock on his 260 acre farm and the crops are marketed through the livestock. Mr. Wegner, president of the Michigan Cattle Feeders association, buys both hogs and steers to feed and grows a varie­ ty of crops for his livestock. Mr. Mantey is one of the best known producers of certified seeds in the state and excellent crops of small grains have become an annual event on his farm near Fairgrove. BARNES SCHOOL NOTES.

NEW OFFICERS ARE NAMED New Consolidated School Board Were Invited To Participate In Banquet. For its regular January meeting and annual election, the Nashville Chamber of Commerce met for dinner and business meeting at the Belson Cafe, Monday evening. Twenty-eight members and their guests sat down to dinner, well served, following which came a short social time and the busi­ ness meeting, New Officers Elected Successors to the various officers, whose terms expired, were nominated and elected, all by acclamation. The present officers are: President—Menno Wenger. Vice president — Gordon C. Ed­ monds. Secretary—Henry Remington. Treasurer—E. L. Appelman. Director, two years—Dr. Stewart Lofdahl. Director, three years—C. L. Glas­ gow. Director, three years—E. D. Olm­ stead. Director, one year to fill vacancy— L. H. Cook. The new officers immediately took charge of the meeting, as a meeting of the new consolidated school board required the attention of some of the former members, including the secre­ tary. L. H. Cook was appointed by the chairman to act as temporary secretary. Committee Reports The reports of the various com­ mittees was put over until the Feb­ ruary meeting. The treasurer made report of the various expenditures, amounting to $117.79, leaving a bal­ ance in the treasury of $294.80, which is considered very good for a small city the size of Nashville, and the many activities in which the Cham­ ber has participated during the past year. A suggestion was made to contrib­ ute a substantial sum to the Red Cross special drive to be started soon but this matter was tabled for a fu­ ture meeting. The membership dues which had been held at $3.00 for the past year, and which have appeared to furnish adequate funds for all running ex­ penses, will be continued at that fig­ ure for the coming year. Guests at the Monday evening meeting were A. E. Kidder of Lans­ ing, S. I. Zemer, E. H. Lathrop, Dr. OrviUe Mater, and S. W.

And, oh boy, that air out of the east is sure like ice. It’s the cold­ est I have seen in the three winters I have been here. We arrived in Miami last Sunday evening, our first drive on Sunday. It seems as if I can’t get at letter writing. We spent a week in Tampa, which we enjoyed, although it rained so much while we were there. On Jan­ uary seventh we headed for Arcadia, to the Tin Can Tourists’ convention. Almost every, state in the union was represented. Although there were not as many people there as last year, there were more than five hundred cars on the ground that registered, and a lot of visitors came every day to see how we "Tin Canners" looked. We all had a fine time. Arcadia lost the convention for next year, and Sarasota won. Ar­ cadia had gone to Tampa ten years ago when their first convention was held, when Tampa said she did not want them in DeSota Park, and ask­ ed them to come to Arcadia, which they did for nine successive years and were treated royally. We found it the quietest camp to sleep in from Can­ ada to the Gulf of Mexico. Sarasota came over to entertain the tourists with the American Legion band, clowns and stilt-walkers. Ar­ cadia treated the tourists to truck loads of oranges and grapefruit, and moving picture shows in the open. Melbourne also came over and enter­ tained us one night. It was sure a gala week. Sarasota promised so much, so it’s to be seen if they make good. Dade City, Lake City, Yanketown and Archer all have a home­ going week, and Invite the tourists to come. , We left Arcadia on Saturday morning, camping twelve miles east of Fort Meyers at a place back off the road where we spied a sign say­ ing "Good fishing and camp ground.” We drove in and found an old gentle­ man who invited us in as his guests; said he would not charge us a cent. We found a nice place on the bank of a river running into the Gulf. There were all kinds of fruit, a ten room house, and twenty stands of bees. He was a Swedish minister and a great Bible student; had taught school eigh­ teen years in his younger days. Mis­ fortune and bad luck had overtaken him, like it has some of us. Well, we stopped with him for the night, and were treated royally. He set a fish net and brought in the “fishes and loaves." As I had no bread with me except a half loaf, I brought in my cooking utensils and prepared the supper on his wood stove, which we relished very much. We invited him to lunch with us, which he did and enjoyed it. He feeds the birds which is a great sigh. to see—the mocking birls, blue­ jays, red birds and quail. He goes in­ to the bakery in Fort Meyers and gets all the stale bread for the birds, even the dough they don’t bake. He hakes it and feeds the quail also. The birds come and light on the pan of crumbs in his hands. On Sunday morning he went to his net and brought in the fish and cleaned them, and I fried two large spiders full and called him to breakfast. He said it was an uncom­ mon thing to be called to breakfast. We left his place Sunday forenoon and arrived in camp Sunday evemng, got a cabin and turned in for the night. We have found old friends we became acquainted with last year.. When we arrived here (Miami) we found a letter from a cousin of ours from Winchester, Ind., who is in Mi­ ami. We tried to find him, but miBsed him. He came yesterday to find us, and we had taken a long ride and missed him. He was not daunted, however, and came again this morn­ ing, and we had just had breakfast. We had a fine visit with him. Bran­ son Teagle is his name. After dinner Mr. Lykins and Mr. Teagle took a drive through Cocoanut Grove, Coral Gables, Hialeah, and all over where Mr. Teagle had not been although he had taken some long bus rides. He spent some time in Jacksonville also. He leaves in the morning for Fort Meyers and to visit the Tampa fair. This is his first visit to Miami. We drove yesterday wtih a young couple to the ferry that goes to Key West. There is quite a lot of build­ ing going on on the Keys. . It is a wonderful drive. We had at lunch last Wednesday Mr. and Mrs. Erwin S parrin of Detroit We had camped by them three weeks at Eustis. We received a letter here this week from the children, mailed January seventh. Glad to hear they were well. From the number of marriages mentioned, looks like Nashville’s population might be on the increase. We took a drive this evening to see a lady with whom I had worked last year. She said the tomato factory would start after February. On our drives yesterday we went through the Allapattah Gardens, and there are thousands of acres lying idle, with signs “Tomato land for rent” I tell you the tourist crop is short here, but in other places it is running over. Clearwater is full, also Tampa, Eus­ tis and Orlando and a number of oth­ er places.

Dr. C. W.

Mr. Durkee and another member did not vote, but as Mr. D. is known as an avowed temperance man he doubtless has good reasons for not voting. Henry Clever and family had a very pleasant surprise on Thursday evening of last week. Between 20 and 30 young people of North Castleton and the vicinity of Nashville poured in upon them and a pleasant time was enjoyed. The cantata at the opera house on Tuesday night was not greeted with a full house, probably owing to the ex­ tremely cold weather bn that night. B. F.

MORGAN By Lester Webb Hunted Fur Fur One day last week Merl Hammond visited his uncle, Homer Shaffer. They overheard their fathers talking about hunting mink, and came to the conclusion some easy money would be theirs, by making little effort. Un­ known to anyone, they took their dog Jack, shovel and hatchet, started east toward Nashville on the icy and froz­ en road, could not find the tracks they were looking for, but did not get discouraged. When their parents re­ turned, the boys could, not be found. Telephones were used,, but no trace of the youngsters—so their fathers took the auto and started after them, find­ ing them on the flats east of Thorn­ apple river, rather weary from their strenuous efforts of trapping and dig­ ging in deep snow for mink, but none were caught. They returned home, happy but weary boys. Surely He hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows. Isa. 53:4.

OLIN’S GARAGE NaahvllU, Mich REINSURES WITH WINDSTORM CO. Nashville Company In Interest Of Ito Policy Holders Takes That HAS APPROVAL OF STATE Action. Through no fault of the directors or managers of the-Farmers and Mer­ chants Mutual Windstorm Insurance Co. of Nashville, which is known gen­ erally as the Nashville Co., they found themselves confronted by a situation which they felt would end anger the interests of and be. unfair to their policy holders if the company were to be continued. This situation was due to the fact that the company has but which its patrons reside is almost wholly confined to three counties. This concentrated the risks tn such a small region that a severe windstorm might mean a serious hardship to its memThis matter was brought home to the directors and officers of the Nash­ ville Co. by the heavy losses suffered by that company last year. These proved that it is unwise for a wind­ storm company, with but $5,000,000 of insurance, all within a small terri- tory, to continue in business, as such a situation makes it unsafe for stock­ holders, who might face very heavy assessments in case of a devastating windstorm within the limited area. When the officers and directors of the Nashville Co. realized this state of things, becausb of their severe losses in their small territory last year, they agreed that it would be wise to have the risks of their company reinsured with some other company. That na­ turally led them to place their com­ pany's condition before the Michigan Mutual Windstorm Co .of Hastings, commonly known as the Hastings Co. They wished- to see if an ar­ rangement could not be made, fair to both companies and to their policy holders, by which such reinsurance could be effected, because the Nash­ ville officers and their directors real­ ized that, with the Hastings Co. so largely represented in all sections of Michigan, the Nashville Co. has little chance for scattering its risks in a wider area, so as to reduce the dan­ ger of a very high assessment in case their section were visited by a heavy windstorm. The officers and directors of the two companies have given this matter due consideration. The Windstorm officers brought it promptly before their directors, as did the Nashville officers to the directors of that com­ pany. Both sets of officers and direc­ tors agreed that It was desirable that the Nashville Co.’s risks be reinsured with a company whose insurance was more widely scattered. The matter was taken up with the insurance department of the state. Commissioner Livingston of that de­ partment worked out a plan which he considered fair to both companies, which was approved by the boards of directors of both companies, whereby the risks of the Nashville Co. are to be reinsured by the Hastings Co. The transfer of policies will take place very soon. In the meantime all the policy holders of the Nashville Co. in good standing are fully protected by their old policies until the new policies in the Hastings Co. shall be issued to them.—Adv.

Holbeck of Long Lake. This bill is designed to end all gasoline price wars in Michigan. Urging larger state police force to take over duties of sheriffs and city and village officers, Rep. Hazen Hatch of Marshall introduced a bill in the house which would centralize all po­ lice activities and provide that every recruit of the force would receive at least six months training in police work at either the University of Michigan or Michigan State college. The state police according to the bill would be under control of a superin­ tendent who would be appointed for life or good behaviour. He would be authorized to hire one state trooper for each 10,000 inhabitants and a state police post would be established in every county. Hatch deciares that his bill which would revolutionize law enforcement wojk in Michigan, has the backing of the state crime com­ mission. In event his bill is enacted he plans to ask for an amendment to the constitution abolishing county sheriffs and city and village police forces. The plan of law enforcement is similar to that used in Ontario and other Canadian provinces. A ban upon alcohol for automobiles is proposed by Rep. Espie of Eagle, who would prohibit the sale of alco­ hol as an antifreeze for automobile radiators in a measure which he has submitted in the house. All Makes of Cars. Bring yours in.

Nashville, Mich. Rep. McBride of Shiawassee would do away with the presidential prefer­ ential primary in Michigan, contend­ ing it is useless, and submitted a bill to that end. Annual sessions of the legislature is provided for in the joint resolution offered in the house by Rep. Harnly of Saginaw. The resolution provides that the first years ’’ession be limited to the introduction of bills and con­ sideration of proposed measures or other matter recommended by the governor. In the second year the legislature would limit consideration to general legislation with no intro­ duction of bills unless pertaining to matters recommended by the gover­ nor. The third wet move has been made. This was launched in the senate by Senator Sadowski of Hamtramck, a Democrat, who was sworn into office only a few days before as a successor to Senator Cass Jankowski. He In­ troduced a resolution which would wipe the bone dry clause from the state constitution. If the legislature adopts it the proposed amendment will be submitted to the voters in the general election tn 1932. This was re­ ferred to the prohibition committee, the chairman and several members of which are regarded as extremely dry. The state is to end competition in road building. Prison labor is to ston in favor of private construction. The road committee of the state adminis­ trative board voted to withdraw the state highway department from com­ petition with private contractors. Sixty per cent of the $7,000,000 worth of equipment owned by the private contractors, they said, was idle last year, and a change of policy would involve the employment of at least 7000 meu in the lower peninsula. Appointment of all present state elective officers was proposed in a joint resolution introduced in the house by Rep. Dykstra of Grand Rapids who claims their election now is just a farce. Those whom he would have appointed are the lieuten­ ant governor, secretary, state treas­ urer, auditor general, attorney gener­ al, justices of the supreme court, sup­ erintendent oi public instruction, board of regents, state board of agri­ culture and state board of education. He would make the governor directly responsible for the entire administra­ tion. The licensed truck carrier industry in Michigan is destined to die a quick death unless remedial legislation and increased inspection facilities come to the aid of the patient, the state pub­ lic utilities commission reported. The senate has passed the Howell bill which exempts the so-called small fisherman from the $10 commercial license. According to Mr. Howell, many fishermen attempted to make a living during the unemployment per­ iod by selling fish and the fee worked a hardship upon them. Repeal of drastic punishment pro­ visions in the state liquor enforce­ ment law known as the Cuthbertson act passed at the last session of the legislature is asked by Rep. Darin of River Rouge, who introduced a bill to make all liquor violations misde­ meanors and the maximum punish­ ment would be a fine of $100 or 90 days in jail or both. He said this would throw an liquor cases into jus­ tice courts where they belonged.

This compares with net earnings of $5,919,096, equivalent to $3.37 per share on the 1.725.726 16-20 shares of of common stock outstanding at the end of 1929. The net earnings of $1.1.5 for the year indicate a substantial increase in earnings during the second half of 1930 as compared with the first half, when the common stock earned only 12 cents per share. Inventories of January 3. 1931, are $19,937,671. as compared with inven­ tories at the close of 1929 of $22,080580—a reduction in inventory of Rightly over $2,000,000. On April 1, 1930, inventories amounted to $25,­ 130,469. Cash on hand or In bank on Janu­ ary 3, 1931, was $6,587,755, as com­ pared with cash on hand at the close of 1929 of $7,516,136. Albert H. Morrill, president, com­ menting on figures of 1930, said: “Plans for expansion by an orderly process of opening new stores in de­ sirable territory will be completed .shortly and will be based on exhaus­ tive research work as to customer possibilities and population., trends, taken in connection with our existing branch facilities. During the year 843 stores have been remodelled.” The thirteen month calendar has been adopted and will be followed as a means for facilitating a more com­ plete and accurate method of report­ ing sales, earnings, and expenses on a regular basis.

Q He took her to a desk and gave her paper and a pen. Julie wrote a few hurried lines. "I didn’t mean it. Lawrence dear. I want you to come back to me. Please ring me in the morning.— Julto" It was a relief to have written that and she half smiled as she thought how unnecessary it was to have add­ ed those last words. He would not ring her, he would come round, she was sure, he would come very early, perhaps even tonight if he was back in time, and then in the morning they would go away and make some sort of happiness together. Julie tried hard not to think be­ yond tomorrow, but although she was so tired, and felt ready to drop, she could not sleep. She lay awake for hours listening to every sound. In the early morning Julie dozed off to sleep, only waking when she heard the maid let herself into the fiat and move about in the kitchen lighting the fire. Presently she brought tea and a note. "It was lying on the mat when I came in. Miss.” Julie glanced at the handwriting, then sat up, her pulses jerking. It was from Lawrence Schofield. She was conscious of a warm glow of pleasure.

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 26,1931 I NUMBER 33 Eight Pages - Union Service f Middleville Selects Nashville Cl Sunday Eve, March I J Her New School Site EXCHANGE The board of education of the town­ ship district school decided on the site for the new building, Tuesday, Feb. 17, and purchased about five acres of ground located on West Main street, on south side of M-37, comprising the Matteson estate and the Rogers es­ tate, lately owned by F.d Tolhurst, al­ so some lots back of this property. The building will stand on the hill and the playground will be back of the building. Survey will be made this week and plans drawn. Real opera­ tions and building will start about April 1st. Work That Has Been Going On For Snnw Time Has Been Com­ pleted. COMPARES WITH CITIES Steady Gain In Subscribers To Local Exchange Made This Step o'clock noon on Friday last, the Michgian Bell Telephone company cut over the lines at the lo­ cal office from the old American Elec­ tric switchboard, which had served the people of Nashville and vicinity for the past 32 years, to a new Mag­ neto type Western Electric switch­ board. In addition to the installing of the switchboard, all other inside ap­ paratus was replaced with new stan­ dard Bell equipment. This is a fine improvement and should reflect in the sendee. The work had been in progress for some time, but when all was in read­ iness for the cutover, the change was made with very little, If any, inter­ ruption in the service. Doubtless few people realize the large amount of business activity which takes place every 24 hours in the Nashville exchange. Several hun­ dred local calls are handled daily and a considerable number of long dis­ tance calls. Long distance service now extends to the remote parts of the United States, Canada, European countries, South America, Africa and Australia. Public pay stations are located at the Central Office, the M. C. R. R. Co. passenger station and Belson's Bakery for the convenience of the traveling public, and those lo­ cally who have no telephone. An emergency telephone is located in the hallway at the top of the stairs lead­ ing to the telephone office for night service. Nashville exchange has 426 tele­ phones in service, making a net gain of 15 telephones during the past year. J. C. Furniss, agent, started the Nashville exchange in 1899 and has been on the job continuously through­ out its development. He is a member of the Telephone Pioneers of America. Former Scottville Man Heads Kroger Stores Lawrence Griffin, formerly a resi­ dent of Scottville, Mich., has been ap­ pointed to head the Kroger Grocery & Baking Co. of western Michigan with headquarters in Grand Rapids. Mr. Griffin has been in the grocery business during all of his business life, the past 13 years with the Krog­ er Co., of which 11 years was spent in Detroit and the last two years as NASHVILLE HIGH TO PLAY CHARLOTTE FRIDAY NIGHT. The fast Charlotte tosera will be here to defend their colors Friday night at 8:00. Nashville has already defeated them on their own floor to the tune of 14-13. The teams are well matched, and it will be the last home game for Nashville this season. The boys will close the season at the Tournament in Hastings March 5, 6 and 7. The drawing was made last Saturday, and Nashville plays Port­ land the first night. The time has not been set, but will be in next week's issue, so watch The News. We also wish to announce that in this tournament there will be no afternoon games. We hope to see you all at the opera house Friday night at 8:00. The fans seemed well pleased last week, so get in line for the last home game of the FATHER A SON BANQUET AT COMMUNITY HOUSE MONDAY Fathers and sons or someone else’s sons will assemble at the Community House, Nashville, on Monday night of next week, for the first of the Father and Son banqeuts to be sponsored by the new Community Brotherhood and Dr. Ernest Bumham will give the main address. Dr. Burnham is reput­ ed to be the best speaker in the state in the field of Rural Sociology. There will be musical selections and toasts to both the "dads” and the "lads." Rev. Albert Ostroth, president of the Community Brotherhood, has been quite ill from a heart atack and it is very probable that he will have to forego the pleasure of attending this banquet, which will be a matter of regret to all concerned.

Hearing on the Quo Warranto pro­ ceedings brought against the Town­ ship of Castleton, the school district of Castleton township and the mem­ bers of the Castleton Consolidated District School Board, Frank C. Lentz, Dr. W. A. Vance, Dr. O. O. Mater, S. W. Smith and E H. Lath­ rop, in the six separate and distinct suits* started against the Kellogg con­ solidation plan as voted In the town­ ship, by H. F. Munn, B. J. Wellman, Jesse Gariinger, Dale Downing, E. J. Rasey and Orton R. Endsley, came on Wednesday morning at the Barry County Court House at Hastings. The plaintiffs contend that the Lakeview school was organized under a special act and can be dissolved on­ ly by its own vote and that all the districts affected by the consolidation pl»n should vote separately on the consolidation question, and the fact that the vote on consolidation in the Nashville district was taken In 1828 and is thus not recent enough. The attorneys have until March 7 to file their briefs, and until March 11 to file their answers when Judge McPeek takes the matter under advisement. His decision will be made in time for the case to lx* acted upon in April by the Supreme Court in case it is car­ ried up to that court.

Mite Box secretary. Kenneth Osborne. During the lesson period many in­ teresting things were learned about the people of Africa, then all enjoyed the games and refreshments* Last year Alston Penfold did all the work necessary to earn the honor badge given by the national orginazation. A duplicate of this badge with Al­ ston's name was sent to the national meeting of the W. F. M. S. held at Boston, Mass., where It was on dis­ play with the honor badges earned by the boys and girls throughout the U. S. Several of the members of the lo­ cal band of King’s Heralds are work­ ing for the badge this year. Louis Kraft has the most points thus far. HORSE SALE SATURDAY. The horse sale held Saturday at the Taylor barn in Nashville by M. T. Stumpf was a success in one way as Mr. Stumpf disposed of the 20 head of horses that he brought here, but the prices the stock brought was be­ low the average for such a fine bunch of horses. There was a large crowd of bidders. Mr. Stumpf states that he expects to have another lot of fine horses here later. C.OFC.IN REGULAR MONTHLY SESSION Newly DecoratedBelson Cafe Is The Scene Of Dinner Meeting Of This Body. 29 MEMBERS ARE PRESENT Standing Committees Are Named— Utmost Harmony And Good Feel­ ing Prevails. Chamber of Commerce members to the number of 29 assembled at the Belson Cafe Monday evening for their regular monthly meeting. Two guests were present, Henry Osborne, poor commissioner of Barry county, and J. T. Edmonds, manager of the Inde­ pendent Oil company at Hastings. Following the dinner, a business meeting was held at which time var­ ious reports, unfinished at the Janu­ ary meeting, were presented for the approval of the members. Standing committees to care for the activities of the Chamber were appointed for the ensuing year. Mr. Edmonds, guest of his son, Gordon Edmonds, was introduced and made a few appropriate remarks. Henry Osborne, the guest of C. L. Glasgow, was then introduced, and gave quite a long and very interesting review of his duties as poor commis­ sioner, and anyone who has even a suspicion that Henry Osborne isn’t one of the busiest men in Barry coun­ ty, should travel with him for one day in the performance of the duties of his office, and these duties are not al­ ways of the pleasant, sunshiny kind, but more often of an exactly opposite nature. However, Mr. Osborne seems perfectly capable of taking the work as it comes and his friends have the first time to hear a complaint from him regarding it. His report made to the supervisors recently received the highest commendation, and the efficient and economical manner in which he conducted the business of his office received much praise from that body. A general discussion was raised when a communication from the Red Cross of Barry county was presented, asking a contribution from the or­ ganization for the relief of the drought sufferers in the southwestern states. The matter was tabled for the present, and it was felt that it was the privilege of the members as individuals to give as much to the re­ lief fund as they care to, but that funds of the C. of C. should be used for caring for local conditions of‘ whatever nature. County Agent Foster On Forest Planting Information May Be Obtained And Orders Placed At His Office. Numerous inquiries are coming into the office of County Agent Foster, re­ garding forest planting stock. Many farmers are interested in planting windbreaks or small forests. A 1931 price list has been received at the County Agent's office from the Michigan State college. Certain va­ rieties of trees are much cheaper than in past years. Norway Spruce seedlings, 2 to 4 inches, are listed at $4.00 per 1000; White Spruce seed­ lings at $1.50 per 1000 and White Pine seedlings sell at $3.00 per 1000. Black Walnut and Red Oak. 6 to 10 inches, are $2.00 per 100. A 4 by 4 planting requires 2,720 trees per acre which could be used for a windbreak. The 6 by 6 planting is commonly used in planting forests where only pine are used. This re­ quires 1210 trees per acre. Some are planting a forest 4 by 4 with Norway Spruce and White Pine alternating, with the idea of cutting out the Spruce for Christmas trees in 8 or. 9 years, thus leaving the pine more space to grow in. County Agent Foster is grouping an order for those so desiring. Send in your requirements with your check according to the above price list, or call at the County Agent's office, and Foster will see to it that your trees are delivered to you by planting time. All orders must be in the County Agent's office by March 15th, to in­ sure April delivery. NASHVILLE DEFEATS HASTINGS. Last Friday evening at the opera house seemed to furnish plenty of ex­ citement for the Nashville fans, as Nashville high flashed into form to take the Hastings eagers into camp to the tune of 27-14. With the loss of Wotring, on the sick list. Coach John­ son found a new combination, when he put Gariinger into the backcourt, and shoved Varney up to forward. The second half the local boys flash­ ed into form and looked far superior to their opponents. If they continue at that speed, any team would have a hard time competing with them. Starting line-up was: Couch, r. f.; Navue, L £.; Mason, c; Varney, r. g.; Gariinger, L g. Substitutions, Sack­ ett for Couch; Couch out on person­ als. Mason and Couch were high point men, with 10 each. Everybody come and watch Char­ lotte try for revenge Friday evening at 8:00.

The Masonic home talent play, "She Got What She Wanted," which is to be presented to at Masonic Tem­ ple, March 11 and 12, is progress­ ing very nicely. When you see Leila Lentz and Coach Johnson in the part of a typical Irish couple, it’s a sure cure for the blues, and that isn’t all the fun; just wait until you see Mar­ shall Belson and Gladys Potter, who play the leading parts and are very much in love, try to keep it a secret from Lee Bailey, who is sure one hard boiled ’ Westerner and who is very much in favor of Don Waldron for a son-in-law. But what’s that—Don is really the villain and finally meets his former wife, who is Mildred Mainone, and on the sly she Is trying to vamp the hard boiled Westerner. And last but by no means least we have L. G. Cole, who plays the part of an unde­ pendable sailor who breaks the eight­ eenth amendment often. Ken Miller is director of the play. Besides the play there is a Junior Night Club in which 50 of the chil­ dren of Nashville and vicinity take Between acts there will be special­ ties by the high school students, the feature specialty being a black face act by Patricia McNitt and Harold Wenger. W. L. C. Hold Hower Day Meeting Feb. 17 Putnam Library Is Prettily Decorat­ ed For Regular Meeting Of This Club. The Woman's Literary club met at Putnam Library Tuesday, Feb. 24. for Flower day. The rooms were prettily decorated with ferns and potted plants by the committee in charge for the afternoon. A short business session was held, at which time Mrs. C. T. Munro and Mrs. Ward Smith were elected to membership. The program committee for next year is Mrs. J. S. Greene, Mrs. Fred Wotring, Mrs. C. A. Lentz, Mrs. Ralph McNitt and Mrs. Elsie Furniss. The program for the afternoon was in charge of Mrs. Joe Bell. The musi­ cal part was given by the orchestra from the Beigh-McKelvey districts. Selections by the orchestra, and mu­ sical readings by Arloa Swift, piano solo by Lawrence Hecker, piano duet by Mrs. Young and Mrs. Reed, and a vocal solo by Mrs. Miller were includ­ ed in the program. The paper, “The Man or Woman of the Hour," was given by Mrs. Almon Murray. Mrs .Murray chose Com­ mander Byrd and told of his trip to the South Pole. Mrs. Will Gibson gave a very inter­ esting talk on "Bulbs that Bloom in the Spring." Mrs. Gibson described the different kinds of bulbs and the soils suitable for their planting. “Why I Plant a Garden” was well given by Mrs. Philip Dahlhouser. She said, for one thing, that it improved one physically, mentally and spirit­ ually. Mrs. Dahlhouser advised the ladies to get the hobby to raise flow­ ers, whether from bulbs, shrubs or from the seeds. Mrs. Chester Smith gave a very fine paper on "Come to my Perennial Border." Mrs. Smith spoke from her own experience as she had raised a beautiful border of perennials which bloomed from early spring until late fall. Mrs. Smith named the collec­ tions of shrubs and flowers in her bor­ der and said "to plant your border, to pray about it, talk to it, to dream of it and to love it. When the blossoms come, to study them, and tell your neighbors about them. Open your soul to their inspiration and thank God for this beautiful world. This program was a very instruc­ tive one for every lover of flowers, and it is hoped that each club mem­ ber will plant more flowers this spring that the home gardens may become beautiful and in becoming beautiful will attract people to the love of shrubs and flowers. ■ CIVIL WAR VETERAN ANSWERS LAST CALL Was A Resident In And Near Nash­ ville For More Than Sixty MILITARY FUNERAL HELD Served His Township In /An Official Capacity For Several John Hinckley, one of _ few remaining Civil War veterans, resident of Barry county 80 years, died Thursday at his home in Nash­ ville. where he has resided for 16 years, from pneumonia which develop­ ed from an attack of influenza.

In our judgment the twenty-eight gentlement who signed this commun­ ication are thinking of present farm­ ing conditions as if they are to be permanent and are not thinking of the immense benefits of a consolidated school, which would be a blessing for all time. They have become too pessimistic. They have failed to think of the far superior advantages that will come to the children and to their township if the Kellogg Foundation plan shall be established there. We make this pre­ diction: If the consolidated school proposition shall be carried through, as we hope it will be, it will not be long before some,- if not all of these twenty-eight gentlemen wHl be es­ corting their visiting friends from other localities through the consoli­ dated school, and will be just as proud of It as are the people of Woodland over their fine school. We hope the twenty-eight gentle­ men, as well as all the people of Cas­ tleton. will think of the great bene­ fits to be conferred upon their town­ ship, and upon Barry county as well, by the Kellogg Foundation in the pay­ ment of one-third of the cost of a netf consolidated school, and of its liberal contribution for ten years to help in manual training work and health training, which will make their school a center of interest and helpfulness for the next hundred years. . Mr. Kellogg has made his offer NOW; so now is the time tc accept it or it will be gone foriever. We hope and believe that the majority of the citizens and taxpayers of Castleton township will think of the future good of the finest asset of their township— the children—which this proposed consolidated school will confer, and not let pessimism obscure their vision of the richer blessings of the future. The financial clouds will clear. Good times will come again, as they have in the past. In our judgment Mr, Bab­ son was right in saying that the far­ mer will be the first to recover from the slump that hit him first. It also hit all the rest of the people of our country. We will come through it as we have other depressions. The im­ portant thing for us older ones is to have faith and courage and do our best for the children who will soon take our places. It will call for some sacrifices—but they are for the chil­ dren. If we keep our courage and our faith, brighter days will come and what may be hard today willibe eas­ ier and better tomorrow.

Instead the "black heifer” in this story was the title of a three act com­ edy- which the Beigh and McKelvey schools PTA has been putting on jointly in three performance, with an­ other presentation in the way of grange entertainment more than probable. These schools had purchas­ ed pianos and through the presenta­ tion of this comedy the pianos are now completely paid for and there; was some money left over as well.1 One of the pianos had been paid for by j the school district but the district’s; money was refunded. In addition to, the success financially the cast and those assisting had a lot of fun out of j it all. Mrs. Joe Bell directed the play and its success is largely a part of her fine work. The play was given two nights at the Beigh school and then brought to the Masonic Temple in Nashville for its third presentation. The play, given by rural people, also had a rural setting, with the cast, as follows: Eph Clncebox. Joe Bell; Car­ leton DeRuyter. Vem Bivens; George Clncebox, Milo Youngs; Willie Smith, Lee Bell; Weary Wraggles, Detective Holscombe, Forrest Hynes; ’Squar Brown, Sterling Ostroth; Rube Miller, Fred Hanes; Fiddler, Byron Guy; Mrs. Isabella Simpkins, Mrs. Dan Roberts: Betsy Brown. Miss Gillespie; Scraps, Mrs. Milo Youngs. Between the acts a number of specialties had been arranged, a reading by Mrs. F. Maurer, others by Mrs. Milo Youngs, Mrs. Frank Bennett. Mrs. Byron Gyy,‘ and Miss Arloa Swift. Music was fur­ nished by an orchestra. The place was Swampscott Holler, Eph Ctncebox’s New Hampshire home. Time, the present. The entertainment was well received and the attendance was fine for each of the three presenta­ tions. Chemical Controls Peach Tree Borers Much Serious Damage In Michigan Is Stopped By This Simple Treatment. The word paradichlorobenzene looks like something the teacher selected to torture the spelling class with but it actually is the name of a chemical which means almost certain death to one of the chief enemies of Michigan peaches when it is used according to the method recommended by the en­ tomology department of Michigan State College. This insect, the peach tree borer, gams entrance to the tree through its bark and then proceeds to excavate tunnels in the portion of the tree through which the tree’s food supply is transported. Sometimes the borers are so numerous that the tree is gird­ led and is seriously damaged, and ev­ en light attacks by the borers weaken the trees and make them subject to injuries by disease or weather. In Michigan, the use of the chemi­ cal is most effective if the application is made in September. One-half ounce of the material is used for trees less than three years old. threefourths ounce for those between three and six years old. and one or one and one-half ounces for older trees. The size of the tree trunk is the factor which determines the size of the dose. A ring of the crushed crystals of the chemical should be placed about the tree about one to three inches from the trunk. The chemical is then covered with earth. A gas which comes from the paradichlorobenzene kills the borers. On very heavy soils, it is sometimes necessary to remove the chemical after three weeks but this is seldom needed in Michigan. NAZARENE W. F. M. SOCIETY GIVES PROGRAM AT CHURCH The Women’s Foreign Missionary society of the Church of the Naza­ rene gave another of their good ser­ vices last Wednesday night, having with them Rev. Patience Parsell Hole of Lupton, Mich., who gave the mam address of the evening. The scripture lesson was read by Rev. Brough: prayer by Rev. Glenn Rairick of Woodbury. A talk by Rev. Ervilla Duncan of Dowling on "Some of the Trial? of African Women." Rev. Dorothy Hayter of Elmdale read a message from Mrs. George Surbrook, who visited the local Nazarene church last year, now a missionary in the South Sea Islands. Two songs were given by Maxine Messimer of Elm­ dale, and several songs and some good papers were given by the ladies of the home church. Mrs. Flossie Shupp presided at the meeting, as she is president of the local society. Mrs. Mae Reynolds thanked all who had taken part, either In person, or in the collection, which was >17.05, and the meeting was dismissed by Rev. Hattie Houghtaling of Potterville. These ladies, who are a small band, plan four foreign missionary meetings a year, and there is an old saying that church,” which seems to be tn the Nashville Nazarene women. C. M. T.

The increased quota will give 100 more Michigan youths the opportunity of attending these camps. NUMBER 34 “Snow White And The Seven Dwarf*” This Pleasing Operetta To Be Gives Friday Evening by Nashville ’ School Children. LANSING The county conventions of last week and the state Republican convention scheduled" for Friday, March 6. at Kalamazoo, were sufficiently import­ ant to cause adjournments of the Michigan legislature. But on the other hand I the law-makers made good use of .their available time by proposing many new measures and working fast, on those going through the legislative mill. Senator George G. Sadowski, the only Democrat in the Senate, asked for an adjournment for the state con­ vention of his party at Flint on Feb­ ruary 26, but when his resolution making provision for the adjourn­ ment came out of the senate judiciary committee the words and date had been changed to take care of the Re­ publican convention. It was passed in this form by both houses. Senator Sadowski, and the two Democrats in the House, Rep. Martin R. Bradley of Menominee and Rep. Tracey W. Southworth of Monroe, were granted leaves of absence to attend their par­ ty convention.. Kush Death Bill. Interest in the capital punishment question was reflected by the crowd­ ed galleries to hear the debates in the House. The lower branch made up for lack of discussion in the Senate by parliamentary by-play that amused the audience and for a time threaten­ ed to defeat the measure, at least so far as the admitted attempt to rush it through in time for a referendum vote at the April 6 election. Several amendments were approv­ ed, the most important being that proposed ky Rep. Johnson of Mont­ calm, proposing the use of lethal gas instead of electricity as the death agent. Opposition to the bill was led by Rep. Miles Callaghan of Reed City who offered many amendments, many of which were admittedly to make the measure less acceptable to the voters. Rep. Callaghan nevertheless voted for the submission of the bill, saying be believed that the people should be given a chance to vote upon it. Oth­ ers, favoring capital punishment, vot­ ed against the Foster bill because, as they explained, they believed that the legislature itself should pass upon the question without "passing the buck" to the people. The vote showed 57 for and 35 against. Speaker Fred R. Ming ruled that a. two-thirds vote to give it im­ mediate effect was not essential. The measure now goes back to the Senate for concurrence in the House amend­ ments. There is considerable discus­ sion as to whether the bill as amend­ ed will stand up under the constitu­ tion. Regardless effort is being con­ centrated to get it to Gov. Brucker for signing before March 5 to allow for its submission at the next election. Would Limit Tax. Rep. James Helme of Adrian, who has announced that he will continue tc talk tax reduction until some means has been adopted to bring it about, has submitted a bill which would limit the total of state, county and local taxes that could be levied on real estate to 20 mills. It was pointed out that this is less than is now being paid by most communities in the state. *!Tf we set a constitutional limit on the total of real estate taxation, then we will know that the burden has been lightened,” Rep. Helme is quoted as saying. The resolution was sent to the com­ mittee on amendment and revision of the constitution. The proposal that the Conservation Department pay 10 cents an acre as a tax on its reserved forest lands, the money to go to the county, township and school district':, has been report­ ed favorably by the committee on general taxation. Timber Tax Change. Another proposal affecting the tax system is made by Senator Rushton in a bill which would remove the tax­ es on standing timber and substitute a payment of 10 per cent of the value of the timber cut. The state would distribute part of this money to the counties and townships. The state would pay 10 cents per acre to the counties and townships on the stand­ ing timber. It is claimed that this would discourage the present practice of denuding forest lands and allowing the cutover holding to revert to the state, tax delinquent' Timber owners claim that the high taxes almost force them to cut the timber, even when the market for the sale of lumber pro­ ducts is unfavorable. The law would not be compulsory, timber owners be­ ing permitted to remain under the present tax system if they prefer. Speaker Fred Ming has endorsed the proposal to tax all stock transfers This would raise revenue which he hospital which he is sponsoring for considers necessary for the tubercular the northern part of the lower penlnWould Control Payroll. Another economy move is proposed by the Governor, providing for rigid control of departmental salaries by the administrative board. The mat­ ter has been laid before the senate finance committee. If it is favorably acted upon all department heads will be forced to file a Ust of employes in their respective departments, with the salary received by each one, on July 1 of each year. Under the existing practice each department is given an (Continued on last page) The operetta, "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs," is to be given Friday evening, March 6, at 7:30, by the grade children of our schools. The opening scenes and songs are given by tiie kindergarten and the first and second grades. The leading charac­ ters are: Dawn, Kathleen Bell; the Rising Sun, Hugh Sprague; Sunbeam, Elizabeth Penfold: Bluebird. Leon Ackett; the Butterflies, Etta Mae Goff, Louann McCormick. Rose Marie Tarbell and Frances Dahlhouser. The flowers are represented by the first and second grades, and the Sunbeams by the kindergarten. The operetta is then taken up by the third, fourth, fifth and sixth grades. Snow White, Maxine Cole, is sent into the forest by her cruel stepmother, Virginia Cole, to perish at the hands of Carl, the huntsman, Stuart Edmonds. Led by the forest children, she reaches the home of the seven dwarfs who adopt her. Here she is found by the prince, Seth‘But­ ler, and becomes the queen of the neighboring domain. ■ The price of admission is 20c for children and 35c for adults. The op­ eretta is to be given at the Masonic Temple under the auspiceb of the Parent-Teacher association. We hope as many as possible will attend. The proceeds will go toward beautifying the school building. Wheat Is Good Feed For Fattening Pig* Trials At Michigan State Show That ’ Hogs Pay Well On This Grain. Eight pigs which were started on a wheat ration at a weight of 36.12 pounds per animal and which were fed for 139 days, when the average weights were 188.1 pounds, paid $1.07 per bushel for the wheat which they ate in feeding trials conducted by the animal husbandry division at Mich­ igan State College. Eight similar pigs were fed an equal length of time on an identical ration except that corn was substitut­ ed for the wheat and the second lot of pigs gained a little more slowly than the wheat-fed lot. The cost per hun­ dredweight of gains for the corn-fed lot was a little less than for those fed wheat but the price paid by the hogs for the wheat make them a much bet­ ter market for this grain than the or­ dinary sales channels. Both lots of pigs sold for eight cents a pound and the returns from each ration were computed on that basis. During the feeding period, the pigs consumed 4,114 pounds of wheat and the other lot ate 3,711 pounds of corn. The pigs on the wheat ration ate a little more tankage, linseed meal, and alfalfa hay than the other lot. but the difference was only a few pounds in each case. Pigs receiving a wheat ration should get some form of protein sup­ plement such as skim milk or tankage and this is more necessary with young pigs than older hogs which are being fattened. Best Methods Fail On Unfertile Soil Good Seed And Improved Implement* Are Wasted Unless Plant Food Is Available. Most of the advantage gained through the use of better farm im­ plements. improved varieties of seed, and knowledge of bow to control in­ sects and plant diseases is nullified in an attempt to increase crop yields un­ less the farmer has been careful to conserve the fertility of his soil, ac­ cording to members of the soils de­ partment at Michigan State College. Records of the State Department of Agriculture show that the average yields per acre for oats and wheat in Michigan were less in the last 10 years than they were in the 10 years between 1870 and 1880, and the yield of com during the last decade was only a fraction of a bushel higher than it was in those years. This failure to secure the reward of belter farming methods is due to the loss of plant food elements from the soil through the successive years of cropping, and, unless provision is made for the return of plant food to replace that lost in the crops harvest­ ed, yields will fall still lower. One of the vital food elements, nitrogen, can be conserved by keep­ ing a normal supply of decaying plant tissue in the soil. This can be done by plowing down legumes, by the use of quantities of manure, or by plowadown crops such as rye where the is so low in fertility that it is im­ possible to secure ..crops of legumes without using such'measures first Supplies of phosphoric acid and potash in the sol! are most easily in­ creased by the use of commercial fer­ tilizers. The proper analyses for use in Michigan are given in detail in Cir­ cular Bulletin 53 which can be obtain­ ed from the college or from county agricultural agents. O. E. 8. Meets.

HARMONY SEEMS NOT TOBETHEWATCHWORD • Eight Pages • NUMBER 35 Blanket Of Snow Is Surely A God-Send Town And Country ; News Much Delayed ; This million-dollar blanket of snow that has draped the parched landscape of Michigan and for which we are all so grateful for the good it means to us all. has made difficult the usually easy channels by which news from town and country find their way to The News. However we are sure that our readers will-make due allowance for the seeming shortage of news In view of the fact that the storm is credited on all hands with being of so much benefit and also because of the fact that The News is usually full and running over with readable news from home and broad. It’s no fault of our staff of news gatherers that the har­ vest seems light this week, there couldn't be a more faithful band of workers.

He is in the fifth grade. His brother Dale will join us as soon as he recovers from the whooping cough. March the fifth was Lyle Rizoris birthday. He is now a pupil of Bar­ ryville school. We took popcorn and candy and spent a very enjoyable time with the school children of Bar­ ryville. Lyle was surely surprised. The seventh grade geography pu­ pils are working on their work books. They find them very interesting. The eighth grade have finished civ­ ics and are studying agriculture again. We have some very pretty salt and flour maps on our walls. Also some interesting booklets on Lumbering, Mining, and the U. S. as a World Power. These booklets were made by all grades. Our teacher attended the Rural Progress Day at Kalamazoo Friday, March 6. The noted speakers were Dr. Brim of Ohio University, Lorado Taft, the great sculptor of Chicago, Miss Betty Echert of West Virginia and Mr. Burnham of Kalamazoo. Mrs. Firster says it was the most interest­ ing progressive meeting she had ever attended. Our visitors have been few. We cordially invite more to come and see us at work. We are studying Heroes and Hero Tales of Michigan for seventh grade reading.The scholars gave Mrs. Firster, our teacher, a birthday surprise at the home of Mrs. Baas, who had the room and table beautifully decorated in pink, yeiiow and green. Our teacher surely .vas surprised. Viola Baas had asked her to accompany her home to see her goat that “ate tin cans." We have enjoyed two wonderful programs at our PTA meetings for January and March. The committees were Mr. and Mrs. McClelland, Mr. and Mrs. Brooks, Mr. and Mrs. Baas and Mr. and Mrs. Will Mater. March 26 will be our next PT— meeting. Our County Agent will be present and will talk on Poultry. Special music shall also be on the program. A pot luck supper shall be served.

Joseph Jennings left Maine at that time with an uncle, to locate in the far west, leaving at home two brothers, James and Martin.

NASHVILLE, MICH. THURSDAY, MARCH 12, 1931 1■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■! * CHURCH NOTES | | Coughs - Colds | It was long after midnight now and there were many motor-cars and taxicabs speeding along the streets, car­ rying people homewards from dances and theatres. Giles wondered what Julie was do­ ing. Lying awake perhaps, hating and despising him—the thought was like a knife being turned in his heart. And he was tied hand and foot by the claims of a helpless woman who would perhaps walk in darkness for the rest of her life. . . . Tired out as he was, Chittenham never closed his eyes all night, nut towards early morning, just as the grey daylight was showing between the curtains he fell into - a restless dose, to be awakened almost immed­ iately, it seemed, by the insistent ringing of the telephone at his elbow. “Hullo—yea! Hullo! Who is it?” "Is that you, Mr. Chittenham ? Bim Lennox speaking—” "Yes—oh, yes. Miss Lennox.” Giles was fully awake now, and yet the power of thought seemed to have deserted him. Something had happened to Julie— something terrible—something tragic and unalterable which would never permit him to see here again. Something— "Hullo! Hullo—" Bim's voice at the phone again. "Julie's gone—" Btm’s voice was very clear and quiet .and yet its un­ derlying agitation was unmistakable. "I came back to town early this morning. I hadn't heard from her for some days, and I was worried. I came up on the early train, and I was in the flat by half-past nine, but she had gone. There was a note left for me— a note to be posted—she does not say where she is going—she just says she is not coming back any more.” For the first time her steady voice shook, and broke with a ring of an­ guish. "Oh, Mr. Chittenham, what does it mean? What can have happened to her?" “I’ll come around at once." It seemed to Chittenham that he had never taken so Jong to dress—his hands shook so that he bungled ev­ erything—each moment seemed an eternity, and yet in less than threequarters of an hour he was around at the flat Bim still wore her hat and coat, and her calm face and steady eyes looked strained and afraid. She attempted no greeting—she just handed him the letter which Julie had left "Dear Bim, 'T am going away. I'm so sick of my life. I have tried—you know I have—and I’ve failed all around. So I’m just going away, and not coming back any more. Don’t worry about me—I'll find happiness somehow. Julie " Giles read the letter, and laid it down on the table. His face was grey and though he tried to speak, he could find no words. Bim was watching him steadily with those clear, understanding eyes that seemed to see so much. "Why has she gone, Mr. Chitten­ ham?” she asked at last, painfully. For a moment he could not answer, then he broke out passionately: "It’s iny fault—all mv fault. Oh, my Qod! What a brute I've been to her—" DO YOUR FEET HURT? . • — Consult — Dr. E. J. Diehl Chiropodist Corns, Bunions, In-Growing Nails and All Fact Ailments Treated.

Suddenly she began to sob. “Oh, my poor little Julie! Poor little Julie! You men are all the same. Why can't you leave us alone if you only mean to bring us unhappiness?" Chittenham made no reply. He was thinking of that night at the top of the St. Bernard and of the radiant happiness in Julie's face when she first came to his arms. Then he had been offered a joy too great ever to be recaptured, and, fool-like, he had let the moments pass without taking their full realization. And now, per­ haps. he would never see her again— perhaps already she had escaped from him into darkness and silence which he could neither penetrate nor break. After his interview with Chitten­ ham, Schofield reeled out into the street from Mrs. Ardron's house like a drunken man. For the moment he was mad with passionate rage and the bitterness of disillusionment. He had made an idol of Julie, and cruel hands had dragged it down from the pedestal whereon he had set it, and broken it. He was in no fit state to listen to reason or to be sanely just. As is so often the way with single-hearted people, the first poisoned arrow had taken deadly aim. The depths of his love was also the measurement of his despair and jeal­ ousy—he believed the worst of Julie —he implicitly believed the twisted story told to him by Lombard of that night she had spent with Giles Chit­ tenham on the St. Bernard. For weeks he had known that her reckless gaiety was but a blind to cover a great unhappiness, and now he felt like a man who for long has groped in a dark room and has had a blind suddenly jerked up in his face to admit a dazzling light. Bitter words which Julie had1 inad­ vertently let drop, little incidents which he himself had subconsciously observed, seemed suddenly to fit like pieces of a puzzle into one complete whole. At the end of the road he turned blindly to cross over—he had no set idea in his mind—he did not care where he went or what became of him. It was only when a warning shout’ and the sharp grinding of brakes penetrated his misery that he realized how nearly he had been run over. A wing of the big car that had almost killed him. struck his shoulder and sent him down on his knees in the greasy road. When be dragged himself up again the driver was beside him, anxious, angry and apologetic. "My God, that was a near shave! What the hell do you mean by wan­ dering about Piccadilly like that—I hope you’re not hurt—No? Sure you are not? Well, come along with me and have a drink. I’ve got a flat not five minutes away." And before he could answer or re­ sist, Schofield found himself in a cozy bachelor-looking room off St. Jamee Street with a servant taking his coat away to be brushed, and his host mix­ ing a stiff whisky and soda. He was dazed and sore, and yet in a way the shock had brought him back to his senses. He realized that he had made a fool of himself, and the realization was not pleasant. He gulped down the whis­ ky and soda, and made no objection when his glass was refilled. The driver of the car stood watching with kindly, sympathetic eyes. He was a big. bulky man with a red, bitten face that looked as if it haff been exposed to all weathers, and he had a deep-jovial voice. “Glad you're not hurt." he said af­ ter a moment. "It w’as a near shave, eh? By Jove, you gave me a nasty turn, I can tell you. I've driven thou­ sands of miles in my time on motor­ bikes and in all sorts of Tin Lizzies, but this is the first time I’ve knocked any one down. Rotten sensation, I as­ sure you! However, as long as you are not hurt—have some more whis­ ky." He went on talking as he fetched the decanter. “You a motorist? No! Never drive yourself—Well, I won't let any one drive me—makes me as nervous as a woman. Though talking about women, I met one once with some pluck—drove a car up the St. Bernard in a blizazrd. Know the road up the St. Bernard?” “No.” There was a curiously sharp note in Schofield's voice. It almost seemed as if Fate was laughing at him again. Why should this man mention the St. Bernard of all places? With an effort he pulled himself to­ gether. "No. I’ve never been to Switzer­ land.” "No! I know every inch of it. Had a tour on a motor-bike there last summer. She was some bike, too! I had a special engine fitted to her.” He would have launched out Into a glowing description of the machine, but Schofield cut him short. "Who was the woman who drove a car up there? I knew one once—" He broke off with a sharp memory of the reckless way in which Julie had boasted to him of her achievement “T did it all right—only I couldn't get down—-the snow was too bad— and the wind!” He remembered how she had shiv­ ered—"I never heard wind howl like it did that night—it was as if the souls of all the damned were up there, screaming for mercy." That was so like her— she had been fond of talking extravagantly. And it must have been the very night she had spent with Chittenham. The other man went on cheerily: ‘1 never knew her name, but she was a little slip of a,thing—fair. I al­ ways like fair women—eh? I re­ member noticing her because she was the only woman in the hotel—a rotten hotel, too—-she had a man with her— a decent sort of a chap. I remember Mrtbsdtet Church Notes. At the Thursday evening Quiet Hour, 7:30 o'clock, we are going to talk about the Significance and Im­ portance of Lent to the church and individuals. Surely during this period of the life of Jesus we cannot afford not to spend some time in quiet and meditation. This hour provides for those who see its importance, that op­ portunity. Sunday morning at 10:00 o'clock, ■ the pastor will preach on the theme, "The Most Deadly Sins." Since the ; coming of Jesus it has been necessary for us to rearrange our list of car­ dinal sins. Jesus changed the em­ phasis, realizing that the sins of dis­ position resulted so often in the sins ■ of the flesh. We are inclined to over­ look this fact today and thus many men pride themselves in being gultl- ! less of the gross sins of passion. Yet can they escape condemnation? Come out Sunday morning and hear more ■ about this subject. Alston and DuWayne Penfold will entertain the members of the King's J Heralds and Home Guards next Fri­ day, March 13, at 4:00 o’clock.

It had been taken from a street in Lansing. Two men were ar­ rested just as they were getting into the car which had been parked near Hotel Divine. They were taken to the state police barracks at East Lansing. No charge had been pre­ ferred against them late last week because they were suspected of other and more serious crimes. The pair were suspected of having had some­ thing to do with the robbery of De­ Laney's oil station at Pewamo the previous evening, and of having at.emnted to enter stores at Grand Ledge earlier the same morning. One claimed Grand Rapids as his home and the other said he lived in Tensing. —When robbers finished their work at Fred DeLaney’s oil station, a little east of the main corners at Pewamo, on M-21 Tuesday night, they had 3102 in cash and a number of small checks, taken from the safe.

This was the third time the station has been robbed, but the haul this time was the largest.

At Grand Ledge they were surprised by the night­ watchman. who obtained a revolver carried by one of them.

Here's a new way to get a job. William H. Anderson of Peabody. Mass., a mechanic by trade, out of work for eight months, painted a sign as a means of landing a job. On it was this—Wanted—Information lead­ ing to the capture of a job by father of 7. Wm. H. Anderson. Seeking relief from the mischievous ways of her 70-year-old son, Mrs. Lucy Hatch, 102 years old, appealed to Sedgwick county commissioners, day dispatches from Wichita, Kansas, to permit her to enter the poor farm. Although "her little boy," Harry Hatch, is old enough to be a grand­ father, she told officials he spent her money in bacchanalian festivals and midnight parties. County officers took her case under advisement. From Mill Valley, Calif., dispatches tell the story of Frances Williams, 18, who called at the combination fire en­ gine house and jail to see her boy friend. Wayne Kenyon, held in con­ nection with the theft of bicycles. Firemen, who happened to be in charge, refused to admit her. Fran­ ces went down the street, pulled a fire alarm signal, returned to the jail, found the proper key and freed her boy friend while the fire laddies were dashing about town looking for the blaze. Frances and "Wayne were be­ ing hunted the following day. The plane is being used to facili­ tate winter check-up work on power lines in northern New York by Ray S.

Nashville, Mich. bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb Michigan learned readily her governor’s. stand on “capital punish­ ment" when the capital punishment bill passed from the hands of the legislaturc to Gov. Brucker, who had decllned previously to give his opinion waiting until there was a decision to render in his official capacity. This bill, known as the Foster Capital Punishment bill, making death in the electric chair mandatory for first de­ Ese murders, passed from the legisure to Gov. Brucker on Wednesday and was signed by him on that day, thus launching a campaign that will overshadow all others in connection with the genei 11 election in April, according to proponents of the death penalty. Immediately following his act, Gov. Brucker commends the legislation to the public vote, describing capital punishment as the strongest preventive of murder. When Gov. Brucker added his signature he assured U a place on the April election ballots. If approved by the people it will become effective next January 1 The governor's issuance of a statement endorsing the death penalty set sortiething of a precedent, as execu­ tive messages usually accompany on­ ly vetoed measures. “There is only one way to deal with the modern criminal and that is with a certainty of punishment that is both swift and severe. A courageous of­ fense with capital punishment against gangdom is the best defense for the people of our state,” the governor said in his statement. "The capital punishment bill has been received from the legislature for executive action. I do not shrink from this duty. "This bill punishes murder in the first degree, that is the killing of a human being, that is neither excusable nor justifiable and that follows deliberation and premeditation on the part of the killer. The utmost, precautions have been taken to guarantee justice to the accused throughout, including the incidents of a fair trial and an appeal to our state supreme court without cost to the accused. “Our state, together with many others, now is engaged in a warfare against an underworld that It ruth­ less, relentless and terrorizing. There has grown up a new and daring army of organized gangsters and racketeers. The attempt to cope with this new order without the use of every weapon to arm and protect our state and its law-abiding people is unsound and cripples the cause of law and or­ der. Crime and lawlessness have been steadily on the increase and out of all prooprtion to our growth and there has been a steady growing dis­ respect for law. We have reached an emergency, in my opinion, and this bill must be viewed as a piece of emergency legislation, caluculated to meet an extraordinary situation. In every well organized resistance a pro­ gram of defense against the public enemies is necessary. “The problem must be viewed as one of law and order and not one of sympathetic impulse. The state must be severe if it is to maintain law and order. Laxity and leniency result in increase in crime which, if allowed to go unbridled, leads to anarchy. It is the business of the state to protect its citizens no matter how severe a penalty is necessary. A policy of firmness with capital punishment as a weapon will prove most assuredly to be a deterrent. “The federal government and all of the states of the Union except eight nave capital punishment at the pres­ ent time and two of the latter retain the deah penalty for a murder com­ mitted by a life convict "Executives of other states that have the death penalty say they would not be without it; that the death pen­ alty is the only thing that criminals fear. There is no other way in which the integrity of the people or the sanctity of the law may be vindicated and preserved. I deem this legialation a necessary step in the interest of the peace, health and safety of the people of Michigan. "A referendum clause has been wisely attached to this bill, which refera to the people under our constitu­ tional provisions the question of the wisdom of this legislation. Were I to sign this for no other reason I would do so because it gives to the people the right decide whether capital punishment should be adopted in their warfare upon crime . "The question has been debated for decades. If it were to be delayed for a future election, needless time would be wasted. If we are to do it at all we should adopt this method now when the need is urgent. Accordingly I affix my approval to this legislation and commend it to the public vote." With only a flutter of dissent both branches of the legislature adopted a conference report previously placing the measure virtually in the original form in which it appeared in the senate. A house amendment substituting lethal gas for electrocution was stricken out and the electric chair was returned. Other amendments, save those of a technical nature, were eliminated. The death measure provides that persons convicted of wilful, premedi­ tated or deliberate murder, or mur­ der in the perpetration of attempted perpetration of arson, rape, robbery, burglary, kidnapping for ransom or escaping from a penal institution shall be deemed guilty of murder in the recently by Gov.

Milton R. Palmer of Detroit. The measure would exempt school districts in cities unless they voted ' separately for the consolidation. 1 Elections for consolidation could be authorized on the filing of petitions ! from 10 per cent of the electors. A :majority vote would be necessary for jconsolidation. Should any county .adopt the larger school unit a board jof education of three members would ibe elected to six-year terms.

Several county officers would be placed on a salary basis in lieu of all •fees under the terms of a bill intro­ <duced in the house Wednesday by William J. Thomas of Cannonsburg. The officers listed are sheriff, clerk, treasurer and register of deeds and their deputies counties of more than 200,000, but before the provisions ,of the bill would become effective the .change would be submitted to a vote of'the electors. Thomas said the bill probably would be amended to include counties of 100,000 to 500,00 so Wayne would not be included. The salaries, if the people adopt the measure, would be fixed by the board of supervisors at the October session prior to the odd Reapportionment and finances re­ mained as the principal unfinished business of the 1931 legislature Mon­ day as the state solons swung into the second half of the session. Reappor­ tionment probably will not be solved by the law makers during the present session in Lansing, despite the fast that committees in both the house and senate have set to work on the problem. If the state is not redis­ tricted this year, the four additional congressmen which have been given to the state will be elected at large for at least one term. Rep. Darin has presented a bill to the house and others are understood to be in process of formation. Most of these will give Wayne county five and six districts instead of the present two and a por­ tion of two others. Since the metro­ politan county stands to make almost all of the entire gain if the redistrict­ ing is done solely on a population bas­ is, outstate legislators are in no hur­ ry to pass a reapportionment bill and will be satisfied to elect four con­ Igressmen at large, for a while. The plan offered by the Wayne leader would increase Wayne’s con­ gressional representation by three I and would leave only five present dis­ tricts of the state unchanged. Wayne now is represented by two congress­ men. It also forms part of two oth­ er districts. The first five districts under the Darin proposal would be in Wayne 1county and the sixth area would comPark, River Rouge, Wyandotte, the Twenty-second ward of the city of ' Detroit and sixteen townships in the outlying section, of Wayne county. 1 Present areas in the Fourth, Fifth, •Seventh, Ninth and Twelfth districts ’would be left undisturbed by the DarOther districts proposed by the bill would be: ' Seventh District—Lenawee, Wash­ ’tenaw, Jackson and Hillsdale coun' Eighth District—Branch, Calhoun, ' 1Kalamazoo and Eaton.

A population of 455,679 in an area of 22,761 square miles, comprising the 33 northern most counties of the lowcr peninsula and the four eastern most counties of the upper peninsula, is affected by the movement under way in the present session of the leg­ islature to build a State Tuberculosis Sanatorium in north central Michigan. The 37 counties designed to be served by the institution are indicated in black on the map. A hospital of 250 beds Is being sought for the area on the basis of the 266 deaths occurring annually in it over a five-year period. One bed per annual death is accepted through­ out the country as the minimum num­ ber required for adequate care of cases. Other areas of the state are well above the ratio of one bed per annual death. An outstanding argument advanced in the legislature for construction of the institution is based on the over­ crowded conditions existing in all the tuberculosis sanatoriums of the state. Michigan State Sanatorium. Howell, has a waiting list of 130 patients, which the proposed Northern Sana­ torium would absorb. At the same time it would permit patients from the north part of the state to secure care near their homes, relatives, and friends, and without undergoing leng­ thy travel extremely dangerous to their health. The much discussed malt tax is re­ garded as the most likely financing medium for the sanatorium. While this bill may meet resistance and a possible veto from the governor, house and senate members believe that there are enough votes available to pass it even over the gubernatorial veto.

Lawrence, chairman of the committee, who had consistently con­ tended Daane must be recognized leg­ ally as the nominee, promptly signed certificates informing county clerks that Daane's name will appear on the ballots in the state election April 6. The controversy arose when WoodI worth, as temporary chairman of the I party convention, slanimed his gavel down and declared Daane the nomi­ nee. Later, friends of Rogers discov­ ered that the tally sheets did not agree with the announced vote. A hasty recapitulation convinced them that Rogers actually received 705 votes, while Daane had only 678. The convention then had adjourned, how­ W. J.

INDEPENDENT OIL COM™ Nashvffle’s Leading and Only Complete Service Station. On behalf of Rogers. Seth Q. Pul­ ver, Owosso lawyer, filed a petition .for a writ to compel the certification of his client. Frey retained Kenneth M. Stevens of Detroit as counsel, and they concurred in Pulver’s demand. Edward N. Barnard, chairman of»the Wayne delegation in the state conven­ tion. suddenly appeared as counsel for Daane and he countered with a-peti­ tion demanding a' writ to force the certification of Daane. The justices who concurred in the ruling were Butzel, Wiest, Sharpe. Feed and McDonald. In holding as it did, the supreme court in effect affirmed a ruling made in conection with a Delta County con­ vention dispute in 1904. In that meetng the chairman announced a nominee for probate judge. An oppo­ nent asserted that he had received a majority of the votes. The contest was taken to the court, which held, as it did in the Rogers-Daane case, that when fraud is not shown the actions of political conventions are final and the decision of the chair stands. A bill designed to end confusion such as attended the recent Republi­ can convention in Kalamazoo was of­ fered in the legislature Friday by Senator Norman B. Horton of Fruit Ridge. It provided that immediately after conventions the state central committee shall meet, canvass the votes cast and certify the nominees. A clerical error, accidentally dis­ covered in the house of representa­ tives last week Wednesday, threaten­ ed to invalidate the Foster capital punishment bill which had received the approval of both houses and Gov­ ernor Brucker. The error was a fail­ ure on the part of enrolling clerks in the senate, to include a single minor amendment in the draft of the bill sent to the governor for signature. The -result was that Brucker had signed a bill which slightly differed from the one passed by the legisla­ ture. Not in many years had a similar situation arisen and legal authorities were at wide variance on the proced­ ure to be followed, especially since there remained less than 30 days be­ fore the election. April 6. The sta­ tutes require that referendum ques­ tions be in the hands of county elec­ tion commissions for that period be­ fore the election at which it is to be voted. During the course of the bill through the legislature, there was dis­ agreement whether the county sher­ iffs or the state police should trans­ port the condemned prisoner to Jack­ son prison for execution. A confer­ ence amendment agreed that it should be the sheriffs. This change was not made in the bill sent to Brucker. The error was discovered by Rev. Miles Callaghan of Reed City, during an argument with Rep. Hazen Hatch of Marshall on another bill involving duties of sheriffs and state police. The capital punishment act was cited dur­ ing the debate and examination re­ vealed the mistake. Following the discovery there were several threats by opponents of the measure that they would carry it to the state supreme court, probably in an attempt to keep the issue off the April ballot. In any event they said its constitutionality will be attacked If it is approved by the voters. Pro­ ponents of the bill based theixk de­ fense of the bill in its present situa­ tion upon a contention that the clause in it which provides for a re­ ferendum this spring superseded the 30-day statutory requirement. Governor Brucker signed a correct­ ed copy and it was sent to Secretary of State Frank D. Fitzgerald, who was undecided as to whether he was authorized to substitute the new bill for the old. and there appeared some quest! »n whether the issue would go to the polls. , Decision to have Brucker re-sign the corrected bill was reached after an informal opinion had been issued by E. R. Boyles, deputy attorney gen­ eral, who recommended that it be fil­ ed with the secretary of state for cer­ tification to the county clerks, and that the correct enrolled act, sent to the county clerks go on the ballot. Th^h let the supreme court decide that the coursce removes the defect, he said. The supreme court will not act to halt the vote in April. It refused Friday to order the proposal stricken from the April election ballots, after a petition in behalf of the Citizens Rights club asked a writ to compel Secretary Fitzgerald to cancel his certification of the death penalty act The issue thus is assured a place on the April ballots. ■ . . - THLHHDAY, MARCH 19, 10*1 Four parties will offer candidate for state offices.

Brucker has informed the fin­ ance committees of both branches that he is standing pat upon his de­ mand for the utmost economy in keeping with efficiency. His budget bill, calling for a slash of more than $7,000,000 in contemplated building appropriations for the coming bien­ nium, should be adopted in about the form it was submitted, if taxes are to be held down, he believes. Likewise he contends departments and institu­ tions must hold their operating ex­ penses to a minimum and must live within the approprations granted by the legislature. A technical deadlock that is mak­ ing the current legislature one of the slowest in years must be broken soon if the session is to end at its usual time early in May, leaders declared Saturday. It is claimed by house members that their bills are being held up in the senate and some senators believe their pet measures are being delayed in the house. The situation occurs every session, but this year it appears to have retarded the activities of the legislature more than usual. More than 300 bills have been intro­ duced in th» house and 99 in the sen­ ate, but only a handful have been passed upon by both houses. Bien­ nially the charge arises that one side or the other is holding back bills in order to see what happens to its own measures in the opposite house. Com­ mittee chairmen regularly reply that measures are not purposely being held up. but merely are being subjected tc close scrutiny and careful considera­ tion.

The Clover Leaf club was most de­ lightfully entertained at the home of Melissa Showalter on Friday evening, with Mary Mater assisting hostess. A business meeting was held, after which we all enjoyed the tiever StPatrick’s party planned by the host­ esses. The guests were first introduc­ ed to the "pig tn the bedroom" in­ stead of in the parlor, and you were lucky if you could get away without being bitten with its "shears-like” teeth. After each in turn kissed the Blarney Stone just for luck. Ma Mur­ phy, Bess Brown, and Ma Flanagan. Pauline Lykins, both typical Irish Mlthers, led their respective families thru several clever and amusing games. One shy little Irish Colleen, Cora Warner (Murphy), captured all the prizes.

How tittle is that ? Is there a final standard on which we can base our judgment? Are we too easily satis­ fied with our degree of Christianity? These and many more questions will be considered.

This coming Sunday morning the pastor is going to speak to the theme, "Why Did Jesus Die?" It £s one thing to say that He died for the sins of the world but quite another to understand or interpret how the death of Jesus will save humanity.

Treated Seed Helps Small Grain Yields All Oat And Barley Diseases Can Now Be Controlled By Very Inexpen­ sive Methods. The number of bushels of oats and barley grown per acre and the conse­ quent profits from these crops can be materially increased in Michigan by the treatment of the seed to prevent oat and barley smut and stripe, blotch, and scab of barley. The treatments recommended for these seed borne diseases by the plant pathologists at Michigan State Col­ lege are comparatively cheap and are effective when the directions are care­ fully followed. The treatments should be given just before the grain is to be planted. Either of two methods may be used for treating seed for smut Formal­ dehyde is used with each method. With the sprinkling method, one pint of formaldehyde is added to 30 gallons of water, the oats are thoroughly sprinkled, and are covered for from two to eight hours. One pint of for­ maldehyde is added to five pints of water for the spraying method of treatment, the oats are sprayed while being shoveled from one pile to anoth­ er. and they are then covered for five hours. One pint of the chemical will treat 50 bushels of seed with the last method. If planting is defiiyed, the treated seed should be put in a layer three or our inches deep and should be raked over three times each day. Stripe, blotch, and scab of barley can be controlled by the use of organ­ ic mercury dusts such as Ceresan. This is applied in a tight contained which can be rotated. The .dust is used at the rate of three ounces to a bushel of seed. The dust is poisonous and treated barley can not be used for feed. Union Good Friday Service The merchants will close their plac­ es of business Friday afternoon be­ tween the hours of 1:30 and 3:00 in order to observe the Union Good Fri­ day Service to be held in the Metho­ dist churc! at 1:45. Special music will be furnished by Mrs. Gail Lykins and Mbs. Evans and Rev. L. L. Dew­ ey, pastor of the Methodist church at Hastings, will be the speaker. It ought not to be necessary to urge peo­ ple to pause for a time on this day and give themselves to serious medi­ tation and high resolve. “Is it noth­ ing to you all, all ye that pass by," that Jesus died upon the cross for you? The least we can do, it seems, is to show our gratitude in worship on the day and during the hours he hung in agony upon the cross. M. E. MISSIONARY SOCIETY. The members of the Missionary so­ ciety of the M.

We wish you to hear Miss Biber a lady who has just spent the last five years working in a Jewish settlement at Marcy Senter, Chicago. Miss Biber is to give the address at the Mothers and Daughters banquet at Hastings this year, so you see others are anxious to learn of her work.

Lester Webb, so many years Mor­ gan correspondent for The News, passed away suddenly about 9:15 Tuesday night at the family home at Morgan, and the whole community grieves at his demise. Mr. Webb had returned but a few days before from Pennock hospital, Hastings, where an exploratory operation had disclosed a very serious condition of the liver with no chance for recovery in the opinion of the operating physicians at the hospital. He had been apprised of the seriousness of his condition. Mr. Webb was 57 years of age, had been a resident of the Morgan vicinity for 35 years and had served the mail patrons on Route 1 from the Morgan postoffice for 27 years faithfully. In addition to this daily work he had chronicled the happenings of the community for The Nashville News and The Hastings Banner for years and will be greatly missed from the "newspaper families" of these two papers. The News regrets the passing of this faithful correspondent and extends its deepest sympathy to the bereaved family. Immediate relatives in this griefstricken family are the widow and eight children. Clinton, Clayton, Am­ ber, Arthur, Opal, Garnet, Ruby and Harold. Clayton is carrying the mail on Mr. Webb’s route. There are also two brothers and a sister. George Webb and Mrs. Beach of Hastings, and Dell Webb, residing in California. The funeral services are arranged for Friday at 2 o’clock, slow time, from the Morgan Free Methodist church, with Rev. Mead officiating. Eight Pages FURNISS DRUG STORE VISITED BY BURGLAR Thursday night the Fumlss drug and jewelry store was broken into, en­ trance being gained through the coal bin, window.

Laurent confessed, and is now in the county jail at Hastings pending a complaint.

He said he had maintain the institution perpetually not conferred with the governor. for all honorably discharged war«vetState loss on the Chelsea cement plant was denied in a statement pre­ pared by Chas. W’. Foster, secretary of the state administrative board, and opposing the sale of this state owned plant as proposed in a house. Foster declared he prepared the statement at the request of Edward L. Nichols of Detroit, who later distributed mim­ eographed copies. Gov. Brucker and other members of the administrative board said the board had not authoriz­ ed this statement, and the Governor added that the disposal of the cement plant was solely a legislative problem. The statement claimed the plant had acted as a price stabilizer. Senator Arthur E. Wood’s malt tax bill again was delayed Wednesday when he offered a series of amend­ ments changing the wording and cut­ ting the fees. As amended the bill calls for an annual fee of $250 from manufacturers, $100 from wholesal­ ers and $25 from retailers. Because of the length of the amendments the measure was ordered reprinted be­ fore final action should be taken. The Campbell bill authorizing the state administrative board power to lease or sell state land for municipal airports evidently was consigned to the graveyard. When .the measure came up for final action on the floor Senator Herbert Rushton, who said the state has “given the city of Lans­ With weight and gas tax revenue ing enough," moved that it be refer­ for the first three months of 1931 red to the transportation committee. His motion prevailed without protest. Reports that the'attitude of legisla­ tors was the result of strained rela­ tions beween the city of Lansing and members of the legislature drew Chief of Police Alfred Seymour into the discussion. He said the recent ar­ rest of Senator Charles Roxborough was justified and was not an attempt to show members of the legislature where to “head in." The chief took the position that legislators are going to continue being arrested if the oc­ casion arises, even if the city does “lose a few acres of land." Had the bill passed, the city hoped to obtain an airport site at a nominal sum. A proposal that the state establish a farmland quarry colony for short term prisoners was contained in a bill introduced by SenatorlBen Carpenter of Harrison. W. J. Liebhauser LUMBER and COAL Nashville Senator Carpenter also submitted a bill that would require the state to pay for county parks. It stipulated that upon the request of the rounty board of supervisors the state should condemn or purchase tracts of not less than 40 acres on meandered lakes, with the state paying the entire cost. construction of sidewalks along rural | that anything will be done to slash ■ highways upon petition of 75 per cent previous appropriations for this pur- ■ of the frontage owners.

Senators rejected the net mesh change proposed in the Campbell bill and affecting commercial fishermen." The bill also proposed season changes The bill was opposed by the state conservation department and by a group of organized commercial fisher­ men, but was favored by Saginaw bay fishermen. The vote was 16 for the measure and 13 against. Seventeen votes are required for passage. Victorious in their first engagement in the house, agricultural leaders of the legislature moved their forces to the senate to secure passage of the Johnson bill which would place a tax on oleomargarine sold in the state. The measure had been demanded by scores of petitions as a means of protecting the farmer-produced but­ ter. sale of which is endangered by the recent removal of a federal re­ quirement that it be sold uncolored. The tax bill passed the house after spirited argument with a 58 to 34 vote. Farm leaders were unable to muster sufficient strength, however, to give it immediate effect. The vote was 47 to 40 in favor of the proposal, but a two-third ballot was necessary. As a result of this failure, if the measure is passed by the senate and signed by the governor it will go into effect 90 days after the close of the session. It places a levy of six cents per pound on oleomargarine products. The second bill of the session providing the licensing and regulation of billboards was before the house Fri­ day. the offering of Rep. Vernon J. Brown of Mason. The bill provides that companies maintaining boards have their name and address on the A bill by Senator James A. Skinner board and that they pay a tax of $10 of Cedar Springs would authorize the for their first billboard, and $5 for each additional board but hot over $100. The boards are placed under supervision of the highway depart­ ment and would be located at least 300 feet from the highway and 500 feet from highway intersections or railroad crossings. 9 The Turner bills, which failed to find approval in the house of represen­ tatives earlier last week, were given final approval by votes of 81 to 5 and 78 to 5. They provide that instead of giving surety bonds to the state treasurer to protect state funds, banks may use stocks and bonds as collateral with the treasurer for state money deposited with the various banks. The bill restricting the manufacture and sale of ice cream, sponsored by Rep. John Esple of Eagle, was reject­ ed by a vote of 44 to 34 after a long debate.

INDEPENDENT OIL COMPANY The McBride bill to require a bond to be given by milk and cream pur­ chasers to producers, as a guaranteeof payment, went through by a vote of 58 to 12. A bill which would require purchase of prison-made products by all state departments and institutions and by all local units of government wherev­ er possible w’as introduced by Sen. Edward J. Rushton of Escanaba. The measure provides that the state prison commission shall issue a cata­ log bearing a price list to be approv­ ed by the prison commission and the I manager of the state prison indus­ ! tries. It forbids the state, counties, townships, cities or villages from buyI Ing from any other source unless the . prison industries are unable to fur­ nish the desired goods. ’ A requirement is also made that in­ stitutions and departments unite in a "uniform'style" of products so that prison industries may produce a uni­ form prodjict. Violation by heads of institutions or political unit's would be made a misdemeanor punishable by removal from office. The bill would be effective in January, 1934. The state administration is sold on the idea of selling Michigan’s great resort advantages to the rest of the world and there is no need to fear The question of whether the people shall vote on the prohibition issue in 1932 was more vividly before the leg­ islature Friday than it has been in many years. In a public hearing Thursday night which packed the floor and the gal­ leries of the house and drew w’et and dry orators from many parts of the state, the question was debated vigor­ ously and at length. The forum started at 8 o'clock and lasted until midnight. Representative Robert D. Wardell of Detroit headed the wet forces. The dry program was direct­ ed by R. N. Holsaple, superintendent of the Michigan Anti-Saloon league. The wets pleaded that a change would return prosperity solve the problem of taxation add improve the morals and habits of the people. The drys insisted prohibition has been a huge success when compared to the old days of saloon domination and that if it is discarded prosperity will disappear. The measure under debate was a resolution sponsored by Wardell pro­ posing a constitutional amendment to wipe out the bone dry clause in the fundamental state law by permitting the possession and consumption of liquor in homes or places of abode. If adopted by the legislature the amend­ ment would be voted upon in the gen­ eral election in November. 1932. The change would have no effect upon Michigan unless the federal prohibi­ tion law or constitution is altered. Gov. Wilber M. Brucker issued a statement Tuesday declaring that fail­ ure of capital punishment at the polls Monday added to the necessity for in­ creased law enforcement. The exec­ utive’s statement follows: . “The result of the vote on capital punishment is satisfactory from many angles. It has been beneficial to get the sentiment of the people on this important problem by means of the referendum. The vote itself evidences serious and thoughtful study by the electorate. "An analysis of the vote indicates a considerable sentiment of resorting to extreme measures in dealing with the modern criminal. The size of the vote in favor of capital punishment indicates a large bulk of our people are enqphatlc in disapproval of soft measures in dealing with crime. Ev­ en most of the opponents of capital punishment have expressed a desire to obtain a more strict enforcement of existing law. • “No law enforcement officer can af­ ford to neglect this plain mandate from all of the people to increase ev­ ery energy to the utmost to combat crime with every existing weapon of the law. "Failure to adopt capital punish­ ment only adds to the necessity to speed up every existing agency to a higher degree of efficiency.” Lack of public confidence in the courts and efforts of the ministers of the state are responsible for the de­ feat of the capital punishment bill. Senator Joe C. Foster of East Lans­ ing, author of the measure, declared Tuesday. "These criminals' are costing the taxpayers thousands upon thousands of dollars every year for better living conditions than the majority of our farmers and laborers now enjoy," he said. “Something is immediately nec­ essary to stop this great influx of criminals from other states. "The clergy, along with the public lack of confidence in the courts is largely responsible for the defeat of this bill. One. of the main defects in religion is that it postpones punish­ ment and reward to aJBKher world. I sincerely hope that the clerby, having become so interested in politics, will follow up this crime situation and make some suggestions for relief in th‘s world."

Melon vines are quite large now. There are all kinds of nice fresh vegetables tote had every day in the week. I never saw so many lovely roses in bloom; and petunia beds send forth their fragrance; nasturtiums loaded with bloom. I see so many lovely pansies. My sister and I have at­ tended Sabbath school almost every Sunday all winter. We have been sep­ arated hlnce 1894 and have not been together very much in that time. I thought last Sunday, as we walk­ ed home from Sabbath school, how things had changed since w: went to Sabbath when we were kiddies and walked to the country church bare­ footed. The walk home Sunday was under the branches of the widespreading live oaks, camphor trees, and palm and orange trees loaded with blossoms, and wild cherry trees in bloom, with grey squirrels scam­ pering up and down the trees. Eustis is one of Florida’s nice cities and this new juice plant surely brings a lot of people here to work. There are a number of tourists here yet, but they are passing thru here north­ bound every day. Farmers have their corn planted and it’s high enough to plow: they are plating peanuts and setting out tobacco. Spring is surely here. Everything looks so fresh and nice. I have had something the matter with my right hand: it’s still so numb J can’t tell when I have a pencil in my fingers. I hope it soon gets better. Factories in the south are still at a standstill. The thread mills are do­ ing the best; the hosiery mills are very slack. We received the sad news of John Lake's death. 'The city surely lost a good brother in the lodge, a good neighbor and friend. We heard yes­ terday of Bill Savage’s death. The neighborhood surely lost a good neighbor. We extend our sympathy to both widows in their lonely hours.

I The buck lamb is out of date, he is out of fashion and he is rapidly disap• pearing on modern Michigan farms. He is an Individual that grows in the wrong direction and the body of this lamb occupies too much space for the weight it contains. The buck lamb does not conform to the market stan­ dard. that is,’ the concentration of a suitable weight in a' short wide and compact carcass. Produce the desired market class; it brings higher re­ turns. Meat packers state that choice trimmed lambs will dress fully 2 per cent more than mixed lambs of the same quality. In other ■words it means a loss of dollars to the man who does not dock and castrate his lambs. Those who justify their carelessness by fear of loss of weight or loes by death through trimming their Iambs failed either to try the right method or more than likely have not tried at all. Instead of complaining « about your bad luck when your lambs sell, remember that you are responsible for your Qwn lamb luck. Barry county sheep breeders are making an effort to do away with the "buckY’ lamb. Give them your sup­ port by trimming this year. Time For Growth. Turning stock on pasture before Die grass has a well-established top and root growth will result in damage to the pasture and will reduce the season's total of feed from the pas­ ture lot which is the cheapest source of nutrients for milk and meat pro­ duction. Cows on good pasture can produce milk at a cost of 10 cents per day but Die grass must be thick and have a good growth to enable the cow to gather enough grass in a few hours to supply feed to maintain her body weight and to manufacture a profit­ able amount of milk. If the cow has to range over a large area to get the required amount of grass, part of the nutrients obtained are wasted in pro­ viding energy for the cow. . A 1000 pound cow which is produc­ ing 25 pounds of milk daily will need 100 pounds of grass each day. An area of pasture 40 by 40 feet will pro­ duce this amount if the grass is eight inches tall. Sweet clover has become a very popular pasture crop for dairy cattle In Michigan. It grows rapidly and contains a better supply of protein and minerals than the pasture grass­ es. Cattle very seldom bloat on sweet clover pasture and they eat this plant readily after they become accustomed A charming and impressive wed­ ding took place Saturday evening, April 4. 1931, b.1 the spacious and modern farm home of Mr. and Mrs. Jay E. Cole, east of Lacey, when their daughter. Hazel Marie, - was united___ in marriage with tsawm Edwin nonxjr^and nr,Awitn r»ivu Hoffiirv/T man, son of Mr. Mrs. Dirk Hoffman of Maple Grove, in the presence of about eighty relatives. The wedding party took its place before a large window, which was prettily decorated for the occasion, as the Bridal Chorus from Lohengrin was played by Mrs. Lovelie Miller, who also later played "I Love You Truly," and other appropriate selec­ tions. The double ring ceremony was per­ formed by the Rev. S. J. Francis of Nashville. The bride was lovely in a gown of King’s blue flat crepe and carried a bouquet of mixed flowers bowed with white satin ribbon. She was attended by Miss- Esther Hoffman, a sister of tiie groom, who was gowned in gray flat crepe trimmed in pink, and car­ ried a bouquet of pink roses. Gay­ lord Gould attended the groom. Following congratulations a boun­ tiful two-course supper was served by cousins of the bride, whose table was decorated with carnations in shades of pink and greenery. The young couple, who are highly respected in the community, will be­ gin housekeeping at once at their farm home north of Lacey. Many lovely gifts Including china, silver and linen were received. Guests were present from Grand Rapids, Zeeland, Kalamazoo and Bat­ tle Creek.

Missionary ; Society Has Guests ;; The First Summer Day In Spring i The Missionary society of the ,M. E. church met at the Community House April 7 to hear the guest speaker, Miss Helen Biber. She wa® accom­ panied by Mrs. Veenboer of Grand Rapids and Mrs. Balyeat of Sparta. The societies of Vermontville and Woodland were invited and a good representation of each society were present. < Mrs. Francis led the devotionals, af­ ter which Mrs. Evans sang a sacred solo. The president, Miss Effa Dean. Introduced Mrs. Veenboer, a National Home Society officer. She compli­ mented the local society upon being a Union of Home and Foreign Missions, and believed that all societies should be so united. She called to attention the next District meeting to be held in Grand Rapids May 6 and 7. Miss Dean then introduced Mrs. Balyeat. the District Corresponding Secretary, who mentioned the honor of our having a national officer with us. She said Mrs. Veenboer had driv­ en her car 30,000 miles in Interest of Home Missions. Mrs. Balyeat presented Miss Helen Biber. Miss Biber told how she stud­ ied and planned to go to Africa, but that door was closed to her, and an­ other opened, which was to work among the Jews at Marcy Centre. Chicago. She spent several years among these people. Her talk was mostly of her work there, which she illustrated with interesting incidents. She had a picture with her of Rosie of the Prayer Gang. The efforts of this gang made possible a fine new building, which was much needed at Marcy Centre. She said, “A task without vision is drudgery." At this time the girls from the high school arrived. The Girls’ Glee club sang two numbers. Light refresh­ ments were served, after which Miss Biber addressed the young people. The guest speakers left for Hastings where Miss Biber gave the address at the Mother-Danghter banquet that evening. The next meeting of the society will be held May 1st with Mrs. Ed. Hafner. Farmer*, Study .. This One Carefully During the agitation over the pro­ posed tax on oleomargarine, I have been besieged by letters from the dairy farmers of Barry and many other counties urging me to support and work for the proposed tax. Na­ turally I did so, not only on account of the requests from my constituents but also because I own a farm and am a producer of butter fats. I fougnt against the reduction of the proposed tax from ten to six cents per pound. I wish we had in the United States the same law Canada has. which pro­ hibits the manufacture or sale of any imitation butter. I also had many letters from the eleo manufacturers urging my antag­ onism to the measure, and I want to quote just a paragraph from a letter from one of the representatives of one of the largest oleo producers in the United States. He says, among other arguments, “As you know, the far­ mers and small wage earners are the greatest users of oleo. In fact, if it wasn’t for the farmers, we oleo man­ ufacturers would starve to death.” He urges as another argument that curtailing the manufacture of oleo­ margarine wculd directly affect the cattle business on account of the large amount of beef fat used in the manufacture of oleo. This claim is largely bosh, because the oleo manufacturers can buy vegetable fats much cheaper than they can animal fats, and they are us­ ing more vegetables fats and less ani­ mal fats all the time; it's cheaper and they are in the oleo business for pro­ fit If you were the oleo manufac­ turer which product would you use the most of in the manufacture of your product I know your answer. Folks, your own good butter is one of the most valuable and nutritive foods. It is good for all the family and it is of particular value to the lit­ tle folks. For the sake of their good health and vitality, give them plenty of it Oleo has but very little if any food value. It may have some virtue as a lubricant, but mighty little as an article of food. And, just for you to ponder over. You can't help raise the price of but­ ter fat, no matter what congress or the legislature may do, by using oleo in your home. Len W. Feighner. Representative.

Thursday goes down in history as the warmest- April 9 on record for Nashville and vicinity. The air waa decidedly balmy all day, and the thermometer climbed to 80 which is unusual at this time of the year. And then it turned suddenly cooler with a very welcome rain which came at in­ tervals through the evening and night and served the dual purpose, that of laying the dust, of which there had been clouds onythe highways, which dusted alike the roadsides where spring beauty was beginning to doll up the landscape, and travellers, com­ mercial or pleasure rides; and much more Important to give the farm lands a much needed drink of water, the refreshment causing much thank­ fulness in the hearts of farmer and villager alike.

Brotherhood Ban­ quet Tuesday Eve. About eighty men sat down to the third banquet of the Men's Brother­ hood in the supper rooms at the Evan­ gelical church Tuesday evening. The usual good dinner was served by the ladies of the church, to whom the proceeds of same will go. Following dinner the company adjourned to the audience room of the Methodist church and listened to a fine lecture on European travel by Prof. A. J. Hanna of Michigan State College at Tanning The lecture was based on Mr. Hanna's personal experiences when on a tour of Europe last year, and was highly instructive. It was deckled at the banquet to hold the May meeting and dinner at the Barryville church.

Senator Lewis Durkee's death, the autopry. historic sketch, list of legis­ lators coming for the obsequies, the funeral service with sermon in full, occupied most of the first page of this issue of The News. Senator Durkee whose serious illness had been men­ tioned from time to time in the an­ cient history, died at 4 p. m. on Monautopey proved due to ulceration of the stomach. He had been ailing for sik years but more seriously from the preceding August. Conducting the ‘ ' -8 physician. Dr. and Dra. Young, Barber, _ and Goucher of this village. The ulcers were all found in the car­ diac orifice and the liver was also dis­ eased. Mr. Durkee was born at Far­ mersville, Cattaraugus county, N. Y., May 29, 1831. was educated in com­ mon school and Friendship academy, Aleeghany county, after which he taught successfully for a number of years. He married Miss Sophia Coe March 16, 1854. One son. Allie, blessed this union. In 1863 the Dur­ kee family came to Michigan, locating at Hickory Corners, where he was en­ gaged in the mercantile business three years and was postmaster there a part ot that period. In 1866 he came to this village, which at that time bore no name, and he was one Of the pioneers to help inaugurate the village project. He was the first Justice of the Peace of the village. For eight years he served the railroad from bag­ gage master to road master. Then he took up the study of law, was admit­ ted to the Barry county bar and con­ tinued to practice the profession un­ til elected senator. He was supervis­ or several terms and chairman of the board in the time. His election as senator had been an event of the pre­ vious November. He was chairman of the committee on Federal Relations and a member of several other im­ portant committees. A special train of two cars came from Lansing with the legislators, etc., senators, repre­ sentatives, representatives of Lans­ ing, Detroit and New York newspa­ pers, 10 senators being unavoidably absent The funeral services were held from the opera house with Nash­ ville lodge, F. & A. M., and Hastings Chapter in‘charge. The procession was one of the most distinguished if not the largest seen in Nashville. The line of March was down Main street, every business place was closed and many draped'in mourning. Fully half a thousand citizens were awaiting ad-, mission. The hall had been appro­ priately decorated by the Fraternity. the house directly behind the relatives and friends. On the east ride of the house was the Masonic fraternity, and on the west the citi­ zens. Every available spot, including the gallery, was filled. Many went away because there was no room for them in the hall, and fully 700 beard the service. Rev. C. L. Deyo of Men­ don, formerly of Nashville, preached the funeral sermon, and the singing was by a quartette consisting of Mrs. G. A. Truman, Mra. W. H. Griswold, C. H. Berry and John J. Potter, with Miss Belle Truman at the organ. A large procession followed the remains to the cemetery, where the Masons performed the lost sad ritee. Nashville for sweetness is not so bad after all. Her exports of sugar up to April 15 amounted to 68.348 lbs., of which 41,571 were shipped in March and 26,877 during the first 14 days in April. Over 34 tons, more than four carloads. A. W. Olds and the employees of the mill started in on Monday morning at a quarter past seven o’clock to do a banner day’s work. As a result of their trial. 104 logs, mostly of maple and rock elm, were made into lumber, the total measurement being 22,500 feet. About 6 o'clock on Saturday, Ed Roscoe was busy in Wilkins' saw mill arranging things preparatory to leav­ ing them for the night when he heard a crackling sound which sounded like fire. It was found a quantity of lum­ ber which had been placed over the boiler to dry had ignited from the heat of the same and was blazing nearly to the roof. The fire was soon extinguished, saving a destructive conflagration. Ls not deemed paMible. day, April 17, UH. Alvin Clever is Just recovering from the measles. E. J.

LANSING Opposition to the Harding reap­ portionment bill faded in the house Thursday morning. Representative Cleveland Sorenson of Manistee, who asked for a delay Wednesday on a final vote in order to file an amend­ ment to elect the four additional congressmen-at-large in 1932, announced he would move the affirmative roll call for tne Harding measure Thurs­ day afternoon. Rep. Sorenson said that although his proposed amend­ ment had gained support, attorneys advised him that such a clause would be unconstitutional. Friends of the Harding measure were confident of the bill's passage. Members saw in the plan a possible boom for the elec­ tion of Speaker Fred R. Ming as one of the four congressmen who would be selected at large under the propos­ ed move. The name of Speaker Ming was not mentioned in connection with the move, but observers singled him out as a possible candidate ahould the additional congressmen be elect­ ed at large. Ming is popular in the legislature, particularly in the house, over which he presides. His name frequently has been mentioned in pri­ vate conferences as a possible candi­ date providing no reapportionment is ordered before 1932. Members point out his election would round out a long career of public service beginning as sheriff of Cheboygan county and ending as speaker for two terms of the legislature. Ming is reported to have said on several occasions that he does not care to go to congress, but his friends insist that he could be per­ suaded to change his mind. tions, that it was whipped through the two branches with only two dis­ senting votes. Sens. George G. Sandowski, Detroit Democrat, and James Gordon Bonine, Cassopolis, cast the only negative votes in the legislature on the bilL Gov. Brucker is expected to sign the bill. The Harding bill represents a com­ promise among the various legislative factions on apportionment It gives five seats exclusively to Wayne coun­ ty and puts the metropolitan area to­ gether with Oakland in another dis­ trict The Wayne delegation were finally appeased in the belief that the Harding bill gave the most populous county in the State all that it could expect in the legislature. It revises two districts which with its additional areas bring the only revisions in the current apportionment. In the second district the present slice of the Wayne area is chopped off. leaving Washte­ naw, Jackson. Lenawee and Monroe as the territory in the district. In | the sixth area. another part of Wayne i is removed to leave Ingham, Livings­ ton and Genesee counties. All other present districts remain the same. Moving at high speed after it had learned that capital punishment had been turned down at the polls, the house committee on police and public safety next morning reported out the Culver whipping post bill. The measure provides that judges may add lashings to prison sentences in felony convictions. The committee recommended that the house pass the bill. Rep. Charles H. Culver of De­ troit, author of the bill, declared that he believed his bill would aid im­ measurably in curbing crime in Mlchigan. I "A dead man tells no tales,” Culver sad, “but a live convict will tell his underworld pals of the lashes he re­ ceived in prison. A gangster—a pro­ fessional killer—fears physical pain I more than he feus death. Instead of pampering our prisoners, let's make i them look upon their prison days as painful instead of pleasant.” The Culver bill provides that the sentencing judge may sentence a pris­ oner to any number of lashes “on the bare back" with a leather strap not less than 2** inches in width. The bill, however, provides that not more than six lashes shall be administered at one time. The Harding congressional re appor­ tionment bill sped through the house Thursday without a single vote of protest against its final passage in the legislature. The bill was laid on the governor’s desk with the emphasis of an unanimous roll call in favor of the measure in the house. So popular was The house disposed Thursday of the the bill with the membership of the legislature, comprised of several fac-' issue of providing state aid for main- You've probably heard of the one-hosa shay, That ran so well and then one day Just fell in a heap'of quick decay.

Described by Rep. Ate Dykstra of Grand Rapids as “the golden op­ portunity to economize in county and township road systems." the measure was approved with only one voice of protest. Rep. William B. Campbell of Detroit declared the bill would lead to extravagances and would forever re­ move the possibility of reducing the g asolinc tax. The bill provides that $2,000,000 be taken frfcm state highway funds the first year and turned back to the counties to permit the absorption. The amount would be increased $500,­ 000 a year until in five years the state would pay $4,000,000 annually to the counties for township roads. State aid in the construction and maintenance of trunk line highways, bridges and grade., through cities and villages is provided in the Dykstra bill passed by the membership on the affirmative roll call. Constituting a revision of a similar measure sought two years ago, the bill authorizes participation on a graduated scale be­ ginning with 50 per cent in cities of 50,000 population or^morc. State aid would increase until the entire cost of maintaining and constructing 20-foot pavements would be borne by the state in cities under 20,000 population. Smokers, who last year caused half of Michigan’s forest fires, have the doubtful honor of starting the first three fires to occur in the state during the 1931 season. The three fires first reported occurred in forest fire dis­ trict No. 13. including Lake, Mason All three and adjoining counties. were started by smokers. The fires did little damage. Smokers caused 2,281 fires during 1930. A special ap­ peal to smokers to safely dispose of all matches, pipe heels, cigar and cigaret stubs when in fire hazard coun­ try during the coming tire season is made by Howard R. Sayre, chief fire warden. The robin may become the official bird of Michigan before the end of the present session. A concurrent reso­ lution by Rep. Conrad J. Netting of Detroit and passed by the house, de­ signates thd robin as the state's of­ ficial bird. Accordifig to the resolu­ tion, robin red breast ran far ahead in a vote taken by the Michigan Au­ dubon society. The legislature voted to set aside a joint session at 4 o'clock Tuesday af­ ternoon of this week in a ceremony of tribute to three distinguished scien­ tists of the University of Michigan. A concurrent resolution, providing for the convention, was passed by each house. It was accompanied by a spe­ cial message from Gov. Brucker ex­ pressing favor with the plan and wil­ lingness to participate in the tribute. The men whom the resolution pro­ poses to honor are: Dr. Frederick G. Novy, chairman of the executive com­ mittee of the department of medicine and surgery and professor of bacter­ iology; Dr. Moses Gomberg, professor of organic chemistry, and Dr. Reuben L. Kahn, director of laboratories and instructor of bacteriology at Univer­ sity hospital. The house passed the Brady bill for re-registration of automobile drivers every three years with a license charge of $1. Rep. James Helme of Adrian cast the only negative vote. The measure provides that revenues from the licenses support an adequate highway patrol by tne state police. The commissioner of public safety is given discretion with regard to re-ex­ amination of drivers. Issuance of the licenses would remain with the secre­ tary of state. Revenue from the mea­ sure has been estimated at $1,200,000 every three years. The state police appropriation has been reduced in the budget bill in anticipating of passage of the bill. scale. WALL PAPER The rate would start at 1-20 until it reached 1 per cent for sales of $1,000,000 or more. Exemptions are reduced from $25,000 to $10,000 in the substitute. Rep. McBride also declared that more specific provision is made for the use of the revenue. Under the substitute, he said. $10,000,000 of the revenue will be used for equalizing the school tax burden os provided in the Turner school law principle. The Turner law provides for $2,000,000. Rep. McBride explained that a minimum one-room school requirement of $1,200 would serve as the guide for the apCrtionment with a uniform one mill :al tax levied in the various school districts. Gov. Brucker, according to Rep. McBride, has promised administration support for the bill. Opposition to any sales tax measure was expressed today by a large delegation of Detroit merchants and credit men appearing before the executive. They declared the principle discriminatory and that such a tax would prove a burden to the poor. The general taxation committee of the house Thursday recommended that the legislature tax corporation and private incomes as well as retail sales. Three bills proposing income and sales taxes were reported favorably by the committee. The three measures are fraught with possibilities for heated debate, prolonged discussion, and bitter con­ troversy. The graduated income tax has been defeated by the people at the polls and its constitutionality fre­ quently challenged. Manufacturers oppose a corporation income tax, par­ ticularly the one proposed in the Thomas bill which would exclude ag­ ricultural co-operatives. The sales tax has friends in independent small merchants, but is bitterly opposed by chain stores and the larger establish­ ments. Agricultural, religious and fraternal organizations would be ex­ empt from the corporation income tax which would displace the present cor­ poration privilege fee. Other money from this source, along with that from private incomes, would be used to re­ place the general property levy. A proposal to establish eastern standard time as the legal time of Michigan likewise was endorsed. • । j । | | | | | I I I I I 1 —IN STOCK AT ALL PRICES— ' And more WALL PAPER will be here Saturday at LOWER PRICES than you have ever bought paper.

"Doctrine of Atonement” is the sub­ ject of the Lesson-Sermon tn all Christian Science Churches on S un­ day, April 19. Among the citations which com­ prise the Lesson-Sermon is the fol­ lowing from the Bible: "Let us draw near with a true heart in full assur­ ance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water." (Hebr. 10:22). ' The Lesson-Sermorf also includes the following passage from the Chris­ tian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy: “When the smoke of battle clears away, you will discern the good you have done, and receive according to your deserving. Love is not hasty to deliver us from temptation, for Love means that we shall be tried and purified." (p. 22). Baptist Bulletin.

Additional pruning of fruit trees and shrubs to decrease their water ■I rvqutrcuicuLO, requirements, and cuiu the ujv use um: of mulches ■ | to conserve all available moisture are two practices recommended by the departmert of horticulture at Mich­ igan State College for use in Michigan orchards and ornamental plantings this year. Woody plants lyhich have received light or moderate prunings should be given an extra pruning immediately. The amount of wood removed should total that taken in heavy pruning. While the yield of fruit will probably be slightly reduced by the amount of wood removed, tills loss will be com­ pensated by an extra quality of fruit and by the added ability of the trees to resist drought conditions. Heavy pruning is contrary to the usual advice given to Michigan fruit growers by the college department of horticulture and is given this year only as an emergency measure which will In some degree assist to cdJry the trees through a critical period. Fruit plantations where clean cul­ tivation Is practiced should receive sufficient tillage to keep all soil crusts broken up and to kill all weeds. Materials such as old straw stacks can be used to form mulches around trees or shrubs. This mulch will de­ crease exaporation of moisture from the soil and will help retain any rain­ fall. The decay of the material also adds plant food to the soil. In or­ chards where sod mulching is prac­ ticed, the mulch should be cut com­ paratively early and straw or other material should be used as a supple­ mental mulch. The same practices recommended for fruit trees will help ornamental shrubs in dry seasons. Nashville State Bank Nashville, Bllch. W. A Quick. 85.20; E B. Greenfield, 85.20; C. A. Roscoe. $5.20; H. H.

Decrease FISH LAW VIOLATORS. Conservation Officer George Sum­ ner of Hastings paid a visit to Nash­ ville late Thursday night and found several parties of fishermen on the mill-pond who were not paying the proper respect to the law regarding the species of fish which may be speared. He invited them to appear before Justice Courtright at Hastings Saturday, where they plead guilty to a charge of spearing bluegills and bass. Fines of $25.00 each were as­ sessed. and three of the fishermen, from Battle Creek, paid. One man from Battle Creek and two local boys lacked the wherewithal, and in de­ fault of payment are spending ten days with Sheriff Leonard. Two min­ ors were released with a reprimand and ordered to refrain from spearing until the officers gave permission. BOY SCOUT NEWS. The Scouts met at the Scout hall at 5:30 o’clock. Even though it looked like rain, we went on a short hike. After reaching our destination we cooked our supper. After being out for about half an hour, it rained, and boy, how it did rain! Everybody was wet to the skin. After debating the question whether to return to the Scout hall or remain where we were, we decided to return to Nashville. Af­ ter reaching the Scout hall a short business meeting was held, and then everyone was sent home to dry out. The assistant Scout executive of the Battle Creek area was present for the purpose of reorganizing a new troop. Every boy who is twelve or over and who would like to become a Boy Scout, be present at the next meeting. HOSMER PTA TO MEET.

Sudan grass which can be planted late in May and pastured in July, Au­ gust, and September of the same year is recommended by the crops depart­ ment at Michigan State College as an emergency pasture crop for those farmers whose usual pasture fields will not furnish sufficient grass to carry their livestock this year. Experimental trials with Sudan grass have proved that one acre of it will furnish feed enough for one cow, and this pasture is available when bluegrass ordinarily stops growing each year. The trials made by the college with the emergency pasture crop were conducted on the W. K. Kellogg farm at Augusta. The crop is seeded at the rate of 20 to 25 pounds of seed per acre. An ordinary grain drill set to sow two pecks of wheat per acre will distrib­ ute the proper amount of Sudan grass seed. The seed bed should be prepar­ ed in the same manner as for small grains. Sudan grass can not be pastured af­ ter it has been frosted as it develops a poison which is injurious to live­ stock. Another source of pasture which can be used by Michigan farmers are the wheat and rye fields which can be pastured until the heads of the grain begin to form. The low price of these crops and the probable high price of forage crops makes it feasible to turn stock on these grains. The college crops department also recommends the retaining of any meadows which will make a fair crop The Woman’s Literary club is spon­ of hay Indications point to a short­ soring an entertainment and treat for age of forage crops in the state. the inmates of the county farm, to be held at that place Sunday afternoon.

Nashville Boy Makes, Good On MSC Team William Kleinhans of Nashville was one of the forty flrat-year men to re­ port for the initial diamond workout of the Michigan State freshman base­ ball team when Coach Ljuian Frimodig held his first session last week. The Nashville shortstop is considered to be excellent baseball material, it was indicated by the frosh mentor when he viewed the practice. The yearling balltosser will proba­ bly appear in the lineup when the freshman team crosses sticks on May 9 with the firat-year men of Central State Teachers' college on the MSC diamond. The Mt. Pleasant school us­ ually puts a strong first year aggre­ gation in the field, and the game is far from being a set-up. Kleinhans Is reporting for workouts four nights during the week, and the baseball aspirant makes a good bid to survive the season to land a varsity position next year. HOME MANAGEMENT GROUP 2. Home Management group No. 2 met last Wednesday afternoon at the home of Mra. Elmer Cross for an all day meeting. This being the last meeting of the year, officers for the ensuing year were elected as follows: Leaders, Mra. Clara Dahlhouser and Mra. Jessie Wenger; Chairman, Mra. Lottie Bell; Secretary and Treasurer, Mra. Elmer Cross. At noon a deli­ cious pot luck dinner was served cafe­ teria style, the guests finding tables In the living room. It was intended that part of the afternoon should be turned voer to golf on the new “Put­ ter A-Cross" golf course, but weather conditions were not favorable, so the afternoon was enjoyed other ways.

Devotionals were conducted by Mrs. E. G. Williams. Mra Lila Surine and Mrs. E. G. Williams were elected delegates to the county con­ vention to be held at Hastings early in May. Light Line Unions was the topic under consideration. Mra. Olive Bell gave a very’ interesting account of the work that is being done by Light Line unions in all parts of the world. In South America the schools are opened to temperance workers at every opportunity. There are a great many white ribboriera in England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales, in which the gospel of total abstinence is being sent to all parts of the world. Ger­ many sends teachers out to show people how to prepare and use unfer­ mented fruit juices and to teach the children in the schools the scientific facts regarding the dangerous use of alcohol. In South Africa they have a "raisin week." when they concentrate on teaching the value of the raisin sc that they will use their grapes in that way instead of for wine. And so the good work reaches steadily on and is bound to win in the end. Two meet­ ings each month will be held during May and June. TO GIVE PLAY.

Navue’s home run was the longest hit ever witnessed by many fans, in high school ball. Caledonia lost to the locals on Sat­ urday. Saturday found the boys in top form again to take Caledonia 14 to 0.

NORTH MARTIN CORNERS By Mrs. Shirley Slocum LANSING The legislature ended the fourth month of its session Friday with tension at a high pitch and leaders struggling to clear the way for adjournment. In the senate harsh words were exchanged and Sen. Herbert J. Rushton of Escanaba slapped Sen. William F. Turner "of Morley on the, face with his open hand. Turner had gone to Rushton's desk to discuss proposed amendments • to the act extending state aid to the poorer school districts. The senators sat side by side, talking in low tones, when suddenly Rushton turned on Turner. The latter made no move to retaliate. Later, when Turner had returned to his own seat, Rushton went to him, and they shook hands. Sen. Arthur E. Wood of Detroit and Sen. Ernest T. Conlon of Grand Rap­ ids engaged in a verbal duel. Conlon charged Wood- had agreed to attach amendments to the malt tax which would reduce the fees for retail plac­ es handling malt products and for au­ tomobiles used to transport malt. The Grand Rapids member demanded that the progress of the malt measure be halted and that it be tabled until the amendments were attached. /‘It's a question of veracity," Sen. Wood retorted. "I told Sen. Conlon I would try and get the amendments on the bill, but I promised nothing. The house refused to amend the bill. Racketeers have been lobbying against this measure, which will take $2,000,000 a year off the property tax. and it was decided it was better to pass it unchanged.” Conlon offered a motion to table the bill, charging a promise had been made but had not been carried out. The senate rejected the motion by an overwhelming vote and the malt bill, which Gov. Brucker has described as “wrong in principle,” was ordered sent to the executive.

First, MER-MASH is an open formula feed; you know that you have an honest-to-goodness feed, there being no questionable filled in the make-up. Chicks fed MER-MASH show more resistance to disease, will develop less cannibalism, will show better body development, and better feather development, and last but not least, will do all this at a less cost per chick 'when fed MERMASH. The above facts have been proven by Poultrymen who WILL KNOW the merits of a feed, and if tne above facts are not true why are so many sales arguments used against MER-MASH.

Nashville State Bank Nashville, Mich. Barry Co. Live Stock Shippers Have Meeting Directors From Various Towns To The Number Of 40 Enjoy Fine Banquet Managers and directors of Barry County Co-Operative Livestock Ship­ ping associations met in Hastings Ap­ ril 30 for an evening banquet meeting. Directors from Woodland, Hastings, Freeport. Middleville, Caledonia and NashviUe were present to make up a number of 40 for the fine banquet served by the ladies of Good WUl church. The meeting was opened by County Agent Foster, after which Charles Woodruff. Hastings, was elected tem­ porary chairman for the evening and Will Harper, Middleville. was elected secretary. Mr. Woodruff introduced E. A. Beamer, extension specialist in Live­ stock Marketing, president of the Michigan Livestock Exchange and member on the board of directors of the National Livestock Marketing as­ sociation which works in conjunction with the Federal Farm Board. A man better fitted to address a group of men on Livestock Marketing could not be found in the United States. In Mr. Beamer's opening remarks he stressed the point that coopera­ tion must begin at home. As he pro­ ceeded with his talk, he went into the history -of cooperative marketing, speaking about early developments as well as developments in other states. Mr. Beamer stated that the volume of stock shipped from local Co-Ops. was dwindling, due to the fact that there is less stock in the state and because of trucking. However, there are at present 160 active Co-Operative asso­ ciations in the state. Due to the fact that range condi­ tions have been favorable for lambing, Mr. Beamer feels that fat lambs will be low in price this fall. Other trends were discussed. Other pointe be put in force. He said that stabili­ zation of market depends on volume of stock handled by one selling con­ cern.« He stated that twelve packers buy to per cent of the livestock in United States markets and that there are 120 commission firms in Detroit alone selling this stock, thus giving the buyer the advantage in bargain­ ing power. The plan calls for the elimination of a lot of sellers and the creation of a sales board in the pro­ ducer organization. The Co-Op. selling agencies in the United States are now getting 14 per cent of the business. They want 40 per cent to realize their program. They had a gain of 5 per cent last year and look for an even greater gain this year, due to the large ship­ ments from western producers which they have not received in past years. In his closing words Mr. Beamer gave a real appeal for cooperation among farmers as it is the only way they can come out as far as he sees. Cooperation in buying, producing and marketing — raise their bargaining power with quantity of produce in one organization O. B. Price, Agricultural’ Agent. Michigan Central railroad, gave a short talk on transportation east and trends and market tours. Charles Woodruff and Will Harper were elected permanent president and secretary of the *w formed associa­ tion. Matters of business followed af­ ter which a round table discussion on marketing problems took place In which many Barry county men ex­ pressed their views. Everyone in at­ tendance felt it a very v orth while meeting. CARD OF THANKS.

IS SIXTH ANNUAL EVENT Present And Gave Ladles Many Fine Compliments. The sixth annual county Achieve­ ment Day for women’s extension the largest attendance of any wo­ men's Achievement Day held in the county. A total of 600 were present. Tables were arranged around the hall which held the exhibits of rugs, pillows and good pieces of pottery. There were 325 rugs on exhibit of the hooked, crocheted and braided varie­ ties. All rugs were made of old ma­ terials such as woolen materials, silk stockings, feed sacks, burlap bags, cotton blankets, etc., which had been dyed so that pleasing color combina­ tions were obtained. Original pat­ terns and designs had been worked out by each woman for her rug. and each rug showed originality in design and pattern drafting, many of the de­ signs being quite intricate. Work­ manship on braided, hooked and cro­ cheted rugs was excellent. The rugs were very flat and smooth and surely having excellent wearing qualities. The exhibit was the most varied and interesting of any exhibit held in wo­ men’s extension courses to date. The program started at 1:30 with community singing followed by greet­ ings from Congressman John Ketch­ am, who complimented the women of Barry county upon the things they were doing and accomplishing by working together in their organiza­ tion. Mrs. Alma Fingleton was again elected county chairman of women's extension work for next year, and Mrs. Belle Barnum was elected coun­ ty secretary. Miss Gertrude Reis, home furnish­ ing specialist of Michigan State col­ lege, gave a report of the work done this year in the county. 394 women started the project this year and 371 of them finished their project, making a percentage of 94 per cent, which Miss Reis stated might be a state rec­ ord for finishing. The second year's work, which will be given next fall and winter, was outlined by Miss Reis. This course will cover the following lessons: se­ lecting and making slip covers, re­ finishing furniture, window treatment, pictures in the house and flower ar­ rangement. This year’s course should be even more Interesting than the one just completed. Dr. Austin, head of the education department at Michigan State college, gave the address of the day. He is a very dynamic speaker, taking the "Home of 1932” for his topic. He paid great tribute to the mothers of today who were in charge of these homes and especially stressed the point that each homemaker find some time for leisure in her busy day’s program. Dr. Austin said it was an inspiration to him to meet with such a large group of people who were celebrating a day on Achievement"'rather than failure. Mrs. Robert Burch sang two num­ bers on the program and Mr. Roy Cordes sang two numbers. These numbers were greatly appreciated. Music is one of the things that makes homes happier places in which to live. The people of Hastings have always given their most loyal support to ex­ tension work. All leaders of groups, 38 in num­ ber, were presented with a leader's pin given by Michigan State college, and the county ciairman, Mrs. Alma Fingleton. also received a special pin. Each group member finishing the project was presented with a certifi­ cate of achievement. Mr. Foster, county agricultural agent, extended greetings to the woA play, "Household Hints," was presented by Mrs. Lew Matthews and Mrs. Duane Bauer of the Welcome group and Mrs. Eugene Nichols and Mrs. Grace Colvin of the Altoft group. This proved to be very humorous and much knowledeg waa given regarding /■ffiHpnt household methods.

The mothers and daughters were most efficiently served by eight men of the church, who performed the duties of waiters. Between courses the assembly en­ joyed singing appropriate songs with Mrs. Roe as leader. Following the bounteous banquet, Miss Effa Dean, president of the Mis­ sionary society, introduced Mrs. S. J.

Mrs. Gladys Miller, Most Excellent Chief of the local Temple, her officers and committees, have been busy as the proverbial beavers, in preparing the needful arrangements of comfort and cheer for a midday dinner which the Philathea class will serve at the Community House and for smooth­ ness and dispatch with regard to the business session, the initiatory period and the memorial service which are behind closed doors. There was ev­ ery indication that this would be a happy and successful convention. Weather permitting, the entertain­ ing Temple desires the business places display their flags during the contin­ uance of the convention. %A rooster was the cause of a fire that early Sunday evening threatened the buildings on the farm of Jesse Mulford in Ronald Township. The bird attacked a baby sister be­ ing attended by Mulford's nine year old daughter, Marion. As the girl rushed to the tot's rescue, she dropped a torch she was carrying at the base of a haystack. The stack quickly ig­ nited and threatened the nearby barn and home. The flames were held in check by fluid from a motor driven fruit spray­ er, while neighbors assisted in tearing down the flaming stack and extin­ guishing the flames.

And Other Aids. PROVED RED LETTER DAY PROVE OF GREAT BENEFIT Woodland Study Club Were Visitors A Physician Of Wide Experience Has Been Appointed As Head of —Took Part In Pageant of New Unit. Nations. Closing the season’s activities in a very delightful and entertaining way, the Woman’s Literary club of Nash­ ville was hostess to its neighbor club, the Woodland Study club, on May 5, with the visitors furnishing the en­ tertainment of the afternoon. The event proved one of the “red letter” days of the club year, with probably one hundred club women gathered at Putnam Library, Nash­ ville, where the local club has its ses­ sions. The attendance was quite evenly divided between the two clubs, and most of the visitors had some part in the highly instructive and pleasing "Pageant of Nations,” which was cleverly interpreted in folk dances and songs in the costumes of the var­ ious nations. z' Mrs. Barnum, president of the Woodland Study club, announced the pageant as a health play, combining dancing with gymnastics, with Mrs. Finnle deserving considerable of the praise for its presentation. Helena Schuler was queen of the pageant, and Ruth Neithamer maid of honor, and the chorus was composed of B. Hilbert, M. Osgood,^1. Tyler, G. Plants, F. Trambo and A. Nest "The countries represented and the program numbers for each were follows: England— An English Garden—Chorus. Black Nag—M. McLeod, G. Eng­ land. M. Osgood, G. Faul, A. Dens­ more. A. Smith.

Then came a social hour, at which time each Nashville club woman in­ vited a Woodland lady to tea, which was served by Division TH, with Mrs. Fred Wotring as chairman. Bouquets of spring flowers were used effective­ ly in the decorations. Mrs. Frank Caley was hostess for the day. . Previous to the program the Wo­ man's Literary club held its last rou­ tine business session for the old year and the club's programs for the new club year, 1931-1932, were distributed to the members at this closing meet­ ing. . A little visit to the Farmers Co-Op­ erative Creamery this week noted quite a few changes and improve­ ments.

Barry county’s new health unit, which it receives without coat thia year through the varied co-operation of the state and federal government, the Rockefeller Foundation, and the W. K. Kellogg Foundation, will be in operation June 1. The state contrib­ utes $3,000 a year, the federal gov­ ernment $500, the Rockefeller Foun­ dation will give $2500 for a limited time. The yearly estimate is $12,000 per year for a full time doctor and one full time nurse. The W. K. Kellogg Foundation is contributing the balance for this year but will add to it for the first year in order to carry on some special work. Instead of one, there will be two spe­ cial nurses on the job all the time. The three supervisors elected by the board at the spring meeting, W. A. Schroder of Hastings, Bert Brown of Orangeville and Allan Hyde of Johns­ town, as a county committee, met with representatives of the state health department and of the Kel­ logg Foundation, and on the strong representation of the state health de­ partment appointed Dr. Kinde from the Thumb district of Michigan, a graduate from the University of Michigan and the University Medical college, who has also specialized in health work at Vanderbilt university. This appointment was also heartily endorsed by the Kellogg representa­ tives. The same representatives, with Dr. Kinde, will select-the nurses. . The Kellogg schools in Barry coun­ ty will emphasize health training and the Barry County Health^Unit will co-operate with all of the schools of the county in encouraging and main­ taining such training. The Kellogg Foundation is to build, at its own ex­ pense, and malntani a room in con­ nection with the Woodland consoli­ dated school, which will give the pu­ pils of that school the benefit of such As fast as consolidated schools shall be- established in this county, and there will probably be three more in county besides Woodland's and the new one at Middleville, health train­ ing will be stressed as never before. The Hastings school board will co-op­ erate with the county unit in provid­ ing health services for its pupils. The Hastings schools has a nurse, and there will be a nurse at each of the Kellogg schools. Neither the doctor nor the dentist to be connected with the health work will do other than examine the pupils and make recom­ mendations to their parents as to what should be done to promote the health of the children. In other words this is "prevention work," and a training in health habits. Dr. Kinde’s efforts will not be con­ fined to the work he does in the schools.

We will have a potluck supper at 7 o’clock, followed by some instruction with ref­ erence to the details of the drive.

At the close pledges will be solicited from those who are present and then the teams, chosen to visit the constituen­ cy, will follow up until all have been canvassed. This is a very important part of our church work and the pas­ tor is hoping that the people will res­ pond to this first meeting because it helps to reduce the follow-up work.

A new movement which will appeal to the nation's youth for support of the Eighteenth Amendment — "The Allied Forces"—was announced from New York. . Its three divisions are "Allied Youth," a young people’s organiza­ tion: "The Allied Campaigners,” field workers and speakers, and "The Al­ lied Business Men," backers of an ad­ vertising and publicity program. The backers include Governor PinchoL of Pensylvania; Senator Borah, Idaho; Thomas A. Edison; Senator Sheppard, Texas; Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, Dr. S. Parkes Cadman, and Miss Jane Addams. With the twin objectives of educat­ ing and organizing, pr. Daniel A. Pol­ ing, chairman of “The Allied Cam­ paigners." said the project "inevit­ ably" would have political effect He said be hoped it would assist in creat­ ing such sentiment that the inclusion of "wet" planks in either of the ma­ jor party platforms next year would be impossible. However, Dr. Poling emphasized that the movement would be non-par­ tisan. While some associated with it are members of existing prohibition groups, the movement, he said, has no official relationship with any other body. "The Allied Campaigners," fashloned after a flying*squadron once led by Governor J. Frank Hanly, of Indi­ ana, will be supplemented. Dr. Poling said, with speeches by Governor Pinchot and Senator Borah. Robert Ropp, of Boston University, is president of "Allied Youth"—which already has had 986 young people. Catholics, Jews and Protestants, con­ firmed as state and local vice presi­ dents at a Pittsburgh conference Ap­ ril 13. With officers opening in. New York shortly, “The Allied Campaigners" will start in Washington. September 8. on a tour of 250 large cities, hold­ ing three-day meetings and organiz­ ing a society in each city. By work­ ing into June, 1932, the squad hopes to reach 2,000,000 persons. Publica­ tion of a house organ will begin Sep­ tember 1. Preliminary financing has been underwritten by the backers and offerings will be taken on the tour. "The leaders of the Allied forces,” said Dr. Poling, "do not believe ’all of God's children' are on one side of this issue. • • 41 They recognize an honest, deep-seated difference of opin­ ion. • • • But they are unequivocally for the Eighteenth Amendment."

The state of Mississippi has pardoned a negro who has been dead since No­ vember. records at the penitentiary offices reveal. Jim Foote, the negro, until his suspension by Governor Bil­ bo last year, had served 23 years of a life-time sentence. He returned to his home and died, his petition for clemency unanswered until too late. When “Curfew Shall Not Ring To­ night" was dramatized on the air, its author, Rose Hartwick Thorpe, now 80 years old, listened in at her home in San Diego, Cal. The poem was giv­ en life in the Story of Time over a WABC network. Plans were made to have the author as a special guest at her home receiver. She wrote "Cur­ few” in 1867 when she was 16 years old. while attending school at Litch­ field. Mich. The state supreme court of Califor­ nia decided without a dissenting vote that the owner of a wooden leg is en­ titled to damages if he breaks it in the course,of his employment. John Driscoll, teamster, fell off his wagon and broke his wooden leg. The State Industrial Accident commission awarded him $383 damages and $19.­ 45 a week until he recovered from his fall and could get a new leg. The Pacific Indemnity company asked a review, contending a wooden leg is personal property. Each week for the next two months M. Mohamad, dress manufacturer, must visit his former wife in the county jail and make love to her as he did before they married- Judge C. A. Batchelor ordered at Seattle. If at the end of that time Mohamad has re-won his wife's affections and she has consented to remarry him, she will not be required to serve the re­ mainder of a sentence for shooting and wounding two men last New Year’s. Mrs. Mohamad was convict­ ed of shooting M. Hashreed, and H. Hassan, her former employer, while in a fit of anger growing out of her do­ mestic trouble.

The selections were made from photographs on the basis of appeal, attractiveness, clev­ erness of pose and excellence of pho­ tography. , A new policy on land settlement was decided upon at the annual meet­ ing of the Canada Colonization asso­ ciation in Winnipeg. Efforts will be concentrated this year on the most ef­ ficient settlement of families who are already in Canada, rather than in bringing in more from outside the country. There has been less trouble with families leaving their farms vol­ untarily, despite the unsettled agri­ cultural conditions which prevailed during the year in the west, it was reported by the association manager. T. O. F. Herzer. The association last year settled almost 500 families in the five provinces of Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia. The total number of fam­ ilies settled by the association in the five provinces is 4107, with an addi­ tional 879 families regarded as of a temporary nature. They people oc­ cupy 936,934 acres of lafid, the value of which amounts to $35,115,202. Sylvia Didech, a little Chicago miss of 12 years, spelled her way to Wash­ ington, a champion among 40.000 boys and girls of Cook county, won trip to national capital and was re­ ceived by President Hoover. Ever since last November Sylvia had been spelling in preli.ainary contests, al­ ways coming out on top, until finally she was one of five who stood before the radio microphone in Chicago to wrestle with the difficult words of the Fngliah language—allotment, debris, irascible, arbiters, villainous— words which listeners-in might easily stum­ ble over. So tiny and so short was Sylvia that she hardly reached the shoulders of her Gospellers. So mod­ est and so retiring, too, that although MAY 27-28 "Doctor’* Wive*,” with Joan Bennett and Warner Baxter she stepped out, straightened up with her hands behind her, her head thrown high as if gazing at the stars, and •ent her voice clearly to the radio in­ strument. All finally had been spelled down except Sylvia and one other girt. to spell it correctly, plus another word from the list, before she could be pro- defeated by a vote of 69 to 13. The house moved to place greater restrictions on aliens . residing in Michigan The Cheeney bill, establishing a certificate of "legal residence" for aliens and providing for deportation and denial of employment to “illegal residents," was passed by a vote of 61 to 2a The Watson bill, requiring ail pas­ senger motor vehicles to be equipped with shatter-proofed, glass by Janu­ ary 1, 1932, and all other motor ve­ hicles to have the same equipment by January 1, 1934, was approved. Two war veteran relief measures were passed. The Callahan bill per­ mits supervisors to increase the em­ ergency relief veteran tax from 1-10 to 1-5 of a mill Veterans with fam­ ilies could obtain certificates from the state conserva'tion director to poten­ tial agricultural properties ranging from 40 to 80 acres in size under the Darin bill At the end of 5 years, the lands would be deeded to the veterans. The house passed the Frey bill, per­ mitting cities to borrow money and Issue bonds to cover grade separations costs. Such bonds could not exceed 10 per cent of the assessed valuation of all personal and real property and would have to be approved by a three-fifths vote. Other measures sent to the senate included: The Palmer bill, licensing the construction and operation of ar­ mored cars; the Fred Wade bill to limit the speed of trucks with solid tires to 15 miles an hour after June 1, 1932; the Kimball joint resolution permitting the use of county library funds for general school purposes; the Sias bill, to abolish the office of coun­ ty school commissioner for superin­ tendents of schools appointed by county boards of education, and the Campbell bill, authorizing the ap­ pointment of receivers on tax delin­ quent, mortgage foreclosure property. The house reiterated its opposition to special tax measures designed to relieve the state property tax. The membership also voted down an at­ tempt to set up the so-called “Indi­ ana tax plan" affecting municipalities. A proposal bearing the name of Rep. James N. McBride that a 5-mill tax be levied on- each dollar of certain intangibles, including money, notes, bonds and other evidences of indebt­ edness, went down to defeat by a vote og 74 to 9. On the ruling of Speak­ er Ming that the measure sought a change in the general banking sta­ tutes, the bill required a two-thirds majority, or 67 votes, for passage. The so-called "Indiana plan” bill, which would give the state tax com­ mission board powers of control over budgets and expenditures of local gov­ ernment units, was defeated by a vote of 46 to 42. Its sponsor, Rep. Charles H. Culver, succeeded in hav­ ing the measure tabled and will try again for passage. The session also saw failure of an attempt to gain additional support for the once defeated sales tax. Rep. Melvin H. Lee of Royal Oak, was ac­ tive in the movement but abandoned it for the day after members had re­ jected his plea for votes. Embodying a principle recommend­ ed by Gov. Brucker and his predeces­ sor, former Gov. Green, the Haight old age pension bill was passed by the house and sent to the senate, where its prospects are regarded as poor. The narrow margin of approval was 53 to 42. An investigation by the attorney general into the international mar­ riage ceremony between Emily Hunt, 31, of Windsor, and Reginald A. Crudge, 40, of Detroit, on the line bi­ secting the Ambassador bridge was demanded in a concurrent rwohrttan adopted by the house. The ceremony was performed by Judge John D. Watts of the common pleas court of Detroit. The resolu­ tion was introduced by Rep. Charles H.

At the present rate of applying the dif­ ferent forms of lime, it will take 60 years to make the necessary first ap­ plications. Records obtained by the soils de­ partment at Michigan State College show that the use of commercial fer­ tilizers increased by 43,000 tons in Michigan last year, and the fanners of the state are now using better grade fertilizers which contain a larger amount of plant food and smaller amounts of filler per ton. Lack of organic matter in some Michigan soils has become a limiting factor in crop production. The col­ lege soils specialists recommend the use of shorter crop rotations to en­ able the farmer to plow down legume sods oftener. Sods which are to be plowed down should be permitted to develop a heavy top growth. The dates for the soils truck in the counties are: Allegan, June 2, 3. 4; VanBuren, 5. 6; Mecosta.

LUMBEK aad COAL NaabviBe The distinction of planning and managing the greatest chick show e^-er held goes to the Michigan Poul­ try Improvement association and Michigan State College where 10,000 baby chicks belonging to 73 exhibitors located in 11 different states compet­ ed for an array of silver trophies and other awards. The show is planned to teach hatcherymen and poultrymen the type of chick which can be raised success­ fully and profitably. The chicks have to be shipped to the show’ so the of­ ficials know whether the birds are strong enough to shipment or not. This year’s show had 2,000 more chicks than were shown last year and the number of exhibitors was also larger. Michigan and Ohio hatcheries led in prize winning. Ohio men took a total of 46 prizes with 10 firsts, and Michigan hatcheries won 49 prizes with 7 firsts. Iowa won 16 prizes with five firsts, Wisconsin took 10 prizes with four firsts. Minnesota had 15 prizes with one first, and Illinois and Missouri were also on the prize lists. The class of White Leghorns hatch­ ed in Michigan is shown by the sevei} prizes out of eight in that class won by Michigan men. Michigan also swept the prize list In Brown and Black Leghorns. Ohio made the best showing in Rocks and single comb Rhode Island Reds. Minnesota show­ ed the best turkeys and Ohio took the first prizes for ducks. AR chicks exhibited were sold at auction at the conclusion of the show.

The butter thieves are believed to have backed a truck | Back From South t Nashville, May 11, 1931. Dear Readers of The News:—I am back again, where I started from last November. We arrived last week. I have not met many of my friends yet. We left Eustis, Florida, on April the 15th, one day earlier than last year. Things were not as far advanced this year as last. I think the long dought was responsible. The peaches were not as large, and not so many different kinds of crops planted. Some farmers in Georgia were still planting cotton. In North Georgia a lot of cotton was to be planted yet. Thru North Georgia the wild onion is a troublesome weed. When we left Florida there were acres of grapefruit to harvest. I had a letter from there last week, saying the juice plant was still running. I knew they shut down thinking the price would come down. The Sunday paper at Jacksonville on the Sunday before I left advertised for two hundred white women to work in the canning plant, so you see I would still have had work. We had a lovely trip home without rain until aftfer we. left Cincinnati, Ohio, where we spent one night with John Handel and wife. It rained on us most of the way to Lynn. Indiana. We found a few fields of corn planted near Richmond, Ind. All of Tennessee and Kentucky was very dry. A man told us in Kentucky that more rain bad fallen during April than had fall­ en .the last twelve months. The small streams were still dry and rivers low, although the Ohio river was high at Cincinnati. It was caused by rains in Ohio and Pennsylvania and above. Wheat looks fine all along the route. We camped at Pleasant View, a small mining town on 25-W thru the mountains. We stopped at a new camp. They told us the Red Cross had fed the miners there all winter and had just stopped, and they did not have a day's work. He did not know what they would do, as nothing had been raised by anybody owing to the long drought. He said it was sure a pitiful sight to see so many in want We did not see the miners at work this time coming back as usual. Ev­ erything was idle. . We saw more building and repair­ ing along the way this time. The glass factory in Winchester, Ind., has resumed operations after ly­ ing idle all winter. Two tanks are running, and they enploy a number of women also. They will put on anoth­ er tank yet. After all, the home town people h$ve work, they will take on anyone then. The bank closing put a number on the oread line that had saved a few dollars and would have used it to tide them over. Some say prosperity is on the way. I can’t see where. I think this year will be as bad as last. The highways are lined with men and boys seeking employment. No one picks them up for you never know; they may turn out to be bandits, kill you and take your car. I have not written many letters to the paper, owing to the lamesness of my hand. It does not improve very much. The robins on the southern flight do not stop in the south, but on their return north they stop and in < short time devour a field of peas. They kill them by the hundreds. Who would vote for a robin for a state bird when they disturb your slumber at three in the morning and keep up such a chatter until daylight? Well, Til bld you adieu. If anyone wants any work done, I’d be glad to help them in any way. If I do lot secure any work. I’ll soon return south to work in the glass factory at Winchester, Ind.

A Great State to Live in and j A Great State to Visit Michigan is great in extent and in scenic beauty .... great in its natural resources and its industries .... great in its history, its tradi­ tions, and the character and spirit of its citizens. Consider its mines and forests, its fertile fields and its productive orchards and vineyards. Think of its beautiful lakes and streams, its diversified industries and its splendid educa­ tional institutions. Michigan is a good place to live. Here Nature is kind. We are not visited with flood, drought or other disasters to any degree. Nowhere else can people work more profitably or under better conditions than in Michigan. And no state has more to offer the tourist, whether from outside or within the state. Michigan is a great state to live in and a great state to visit!

The project has been rumored for the past three months, and formal announcement was made by Paul Axelrod, building broker and promoter. He promoted the Ionia theatre which was erected half a year ago for the Butterfield Theatre interests at the site of the old Bailey Hotet. Prite capital in the amount of $50,000 is being sought in ♦he new enterprise, the balance of the capitalization being represented by the present Reed Inn property, valued at $50,000, which it is planned to take over. A stock issue totaling 1,000 shares of $100 par value is to be floated if the proposition meets with success. Treated Seed Stops ’ Diseases Of Potatoes Simple Method Controls Ills Which Seriously Damage The Market Quality Of Tubers. Treatment of seed potatoes with corrosive sublimate will prevent the damage caused by scab, black scurf, and black leg which seriously Injure the quality and sometimes reduce tho yields of Michigan potatoes, accord­ ing to the farm crops department at Michigan State college. The seed should be treated before sprouting has begun aud before the seed is cut. Corrosive sublimate cor­ rodes metal and the treatment must be given in wooden containers. The treating solution is made by dissolving four ounces of the chem­ ical in a few quarts of hot water which is then added to 30 gallons of water. The potatoes, must be sub­ merged in the solution and left for 30 minutes, after which they should be removed and spread out in a cool place where they will dry quickly. The solution . loses its strength gradually and one ounce of corrosive sublimate which has been dissolved in one quart of water should be added to the solution after treating each two batches of seed. A new solution should be made and the old one dis­ carded after treating six batches of potatoes. Corrosive sublimate is a deadly poi­ son. Great care should be taken to prevent children or stock obtaining any of the chemical or the solution made from It. Treated potatoes can­ not be used for food.

The room was then cleared of visit­ ors and non-members, and Nashville Temple opened the secret session in ritualistic form. Initiatory work was demonstrated by officers from Greenville, and a degree staff from Middleville. Seven candidates were instructed in the mysteries of the or­ der; four from Hastings, and three from Grand Rapids: Geraldine Hicks, Mary Decker. Leona McGlocklln, Golah Storer, Mary McCreery, Irma Has­ enkamp xnd Ada M. Boyes. This class of candidates was called the Louise Hebbard class, and the Grand Chief expressed her appreciation of the honor bestowed upon her. The work by the Greenville officers was very well given, and the floor work demonstrated by the Middleville staff deserves honorable mention. Mra. Baldwin. Most Excellent Chief of Greenville, presented the name of Mra. Root, Past Chief of that Temple, as a candidate for the office of Grand Outer Guard. The Nashville officers then resumed their chairs, and Mra. Melissa Roe, one of the charter mem­ bers of Nashville Temple, and a Past Chief, presented the Grand Officers and others with corsage bouquets. Following the closing of the temple session the meeting was turned back to Mra. Halt The Grand Chief was along with helpful criticism.

The gasoline tax in 1930 yielded & net revenue of 3494.683.410. As com­ pared with 1929 the tax revenue in­ creased 14.6 per cent and the con­ sumption of gasoline 3*4 per cent in spite of the fact that there was no increase in the total number of motor vehicles. Motorists in California and in New York used more than 1,000.000.000 gallons of gasoline each last year. New York led with 1,433,582,716 gal­ lons consumed and California was second with 1,162,337.545 gallons. Pensylvania, Ohio and Illinois each used almost 1,000.000,000 gallons. A gasoline tax was imposed in all the states, the rate ranging from 2 to 6 cents per gallon. The average rate was 3.35 cents per gallon. The net revenue of 3494,633,410 was allocated as follows: 3L102.187 for collection expenses, 3338.927,564 for state high­ ways, $96,225,637 for local roads. 320,869.901 for state highway bond payments, >10,179,135 for local road bond payments, 311,842,930 for city streets, $13,404,200 for schools and $2,131,856 for miscellaneous expendi­ tures. The average of the annual registra­ tion fees is 318.41 and this added to the average gasoline tax of $18.62 made a total direct tax on the motor­ ist of $32.03. These two taxes form­ ed the largest item of revenue’ for highway purposes, according to the bureau. An analysis shows that the average consumption of gasoline per motor vehicle was 452 gallons in 1925 and there has been an increase each year to 556 gallons in 1930. This increase is thought to be the result, in part, of the Increased percentage of trucks and other commercial vehicles, but it has also been influenced by Increased use of the average vehicle. ', County Agent New* | Interest is being shown to produce higher quality lambs in Bary county this year, through the work of the Michigan Lamb Improvement associa­ tion. Prof. Delmar LaVoi will be in Barry county to aid this program by giving a series of drenching, docking and castrating demonstrations. It relation to the drenching of sheep, Mr. LaVoi will show and what to mix to make the solution, how much to give and how to give the mixture so it will not harm the sheep. At every meeting from 25 to 50 sheep and lambs will be drenched.

When a building needs painting, it is not economy to "wait till next year.” The additional paint required a year later will amount to much more than the interest on the amount expended. There are 3 things necessary in good paint—Covering Capacity, Durability, and Appearance—and the day of high priced paint is past. Right now $3.00 per gallon will buy the best paint made. CHEAP Paint don't pay at any price. WHITE SEAL meets every requirement of the most exacting analysis, and $3.00 per gallon is the price. We guarantee it fully. v C. L. Glasgow Nashville, Mich.

Bogett, victims of the recent double tragedy at Charlotte, was held from the Cheney funeral home. They had been in Charlotte about a month, moving there from the Silverthorn place in Walton town­ ship, according to the Olivet Optic, which said that at the time of break­ ing up the home there Deputy Sheriff Miller was called in by Mrs. Bogett to settle some differences. The couple later made up and started living to­ gether at the county seat. For 18 years, Bogett had lived near Lacey lake and at the time of his marriage exchanged an 80 acre farm to Charles Johnson for the Tillotson place on the A Inger road. Later he traded this property for a farm between Kalamo and Vermontville and still later through the same method acquired a piece of land and a small house near Nashville. Through the various deals Bogett lost heavily. Mr. Miller stat­ ed that this preyed on the man's mind and he blamed his wife for the trou­ ble. Miss Bromley, who is partially blind, did not blame her foster father for the crime. The quarrelsome dis­ position of her foster mother was res­ ponsible, she declared. Mrs. Bogett had adopted the girl when a baby. Of late, she had threatened to send her to the state hospital at Lapeer. The girl has about $3,000 in her own name which will keep her out of the state institution for some time. She is now making her home with Mr. and Mrs. Horn, relatives of the Bogetts.

Mr. Casler sold the Bellevue picture house when he bought the theater In Nashville last fall but had to take it back again and with the excellent assistance of Mrs. Casler. the two theaters have been operated since by the family.

PLEASURE PARTIES CLOSE NASHVILLE SCHOOL YEAR The value of legume hay, such as alfalfa, is determinedly the stage of growth of the plant at time of cutting and by the leafiness and color. During the past few years hay cur­ ing demonstrations have been held in different parts of the state and thou­ sands of farmers have seen methods of hay-making demonstrated which show how to dive the largest percent­ age of the leaves and secure good color. Arrangements are being made by County Agricultural Agent Foster for a demonstration in Barry county this year. The date is June 19th, and it will be held on the farm of Harry Marshall, west of Fine lake. The windrow system of curing is based upon the principle that when bay is cured in the shade the leaves and stems dry at a more even rate and when this happens the leaves will stick to the stems resulting in a bet­ ter quality of hay. Too much hay is left too long in the swath with the re­ sult that the leaves dry quickly, be­ come brittle and break off easily. A good quality of hay can be made by putting hay in cocks and letting it cure. It has the disadvantage of re­ quiring much labor. Michigan is getting a reputation in the hay-consuming sections of the country for putting out a better qual­ ity of alfalfa hay. This state can well afford to build up that kind of a repu­ tation and to hold IL Even if we shipped no alfalfa, the increased feed­ ing value of hay well-cured more than repays for the better system used. During the last few yean some dry­ ing machines have been developed with which alfalfa can be cut green, dried by artificial heat and the high­ est quality hay obtained. Often the protein content of such hay is double that of hay made by ordinary hay curing methods, while the*color is a bright green .and the vitamin content Friday was a day of informal pleasure for students and teachers, and also for farewells—after a pleas­ ant year of almost dally intercourse and striving for improvement. It was a day of picnics which are more enjoyed by the younger pupils, while the older classmates were per­ haps more interested in the baseball contest between the "old grads” and the ‘‘new grads.” The picnic for the lower grades was held in Putnam park and was a jolly affair of "eats” and games.

The Nashville Independents made their Initial appearance of the season at Riverside park Sunday afternoon and got away to an auspicious start by trimming the Dixie Oil team of Charlotte by a score of 5 to 3. The locals, newly organized, went into the game with little or no practice, but stepped right out in mid-season form and gave promise of developing into a stronger team than has represented Nashville for the past few years. Sunday’s line-up was as follow's: J. Johnson, c; Mason, p and 1st; W. Martin, 1st and p; Penfold, 2nd; Co­ ville, 3rd; Kleinhans, ss; C. Johnson, Yarger, Kline and Thomason in the outfield.

Bill Martin, came to the rescueThe Independents have leased the Lake House diamond at Thornapple lake for the season and the balance of their games will be played at that place. Next Sunday afternoon they will play Middleville, also reputed to have a strong team this year, and the game will be called at 3:00 o’clock. Battery for Nashville will be Archie, Martin and Johnny Johnson. Thursday Evening Saw Close Of Com­ mencement Affairs Relatives and friends of the Class of ’31, Nashville high school, again filled the Methodist church on Thurs­ day evening, for the Commencement exercises, a very important feature of which to this class of seventeen was the presentation of the coveted di­ plomas for which they had striven earnestly for the past four, years. Spires made an attractive floral decoration for the altar railing and clusters of this were also placed to advantage. In the background was the class motto, "Excelsior,” in the class colors, silver and old rose. . The processional for this event was the “Grand March" from "Aida,” by Verdi, skillfully played by Mrs. C. J. Betts. Rev. C. L. Owen, pastor of the First Baptist church, gave the invo­ cation, after which Ralph McNitt sang very pleasingly “Friend of Mine," substituted for “Hills of Dawn," which appeared on the pro­ gram. Miss Patricia McNitt was the accompanist. Horace L. Wilbur, Michigan State Normal college, and a former in­ structor of Superintendent McCor­ mick, who introduced him, brought the commencement message to the class in "The Present Challenge.” a very finished address by an exper­ ienced educator, and calculated to urge the class on to right and contin­ ued endeavor in this "School of Life” where only the best efforts get the best results, as in their high school work, and wjjere the great work is character building. Following Mr. Wilbur’s address, Mr. Harold McCor­ mick, superintendent of schools, pre­ sented diplomas to Farrell Babcock, Clifton Baxter. Paul Bell, Pauline Bowman, Edna Brumm. Douglas De­ Camp, Emily Decker, LaVerne De­ Witt, Dorothy Feighner, Aubrey Francis, Ceylon Garlinger, Ronald Graham, Edith Hicks, Robert Mason, Patricia McNitt, Marion Snow and Evelyn Steele. Owing to the illness of Joseph Mix, who was to have favored with "Part­ ing March" from “Lenore Symphony” by Raff, a violin solo, with Mrs. Leia Roe as accompanist, this number was of necessity omitted, much to the re­ gret of. the company. The benediction by Rev. C. L. Owen closed this formal program'of graduation. Fourth Anual 4-H Club Program Held June 5th Achievement Day And 8th Grade Graduating Exercises Will Be Held At This Time.

Telephone: Office, IT; Residence, 208 THURSDAY, JUNE 4, 1931 Standing "What doest thou here, For Right Elijah?” demanded “the word of the Lord." Ov­ erwhelmed with fear. Elijah had fled from the- threats of Jezebel, and was lodged in a cave in the wilderness. He disconsolately explained that all the prophets had been slain, saying, “I, even I only, am left;” that he had been subjected to persecution, and that now his life was threatened. He ■was then commanded to go forth and stand upon the mount “A great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the Lord." The wind was followed by an earthquake, and the earthquake by a fire. Here it w’as revealed to Elijah that God, the only real power, was not In these raging elements. It had seemed that injustice, perse­ cution, destruction, in the person of Jezebel, were enthroned; but the prophet's fear of evil was destroyed through the revelation of the spiritual truth that God, good, the only real power, is not in destructive elements. As Elijah’s understanding that power belongs to God was restored, and his sense of unity with divine power re­ gained, the fear of any destructive el­ ement claiming to ouerate with divine authority was destroyed. He was again ready to take his stand on the tide of right Commanded to “re­ turn," he returned, humanly alone, ev­ en as he had fled. He was also com­ manded to anoint successors to the kings who had seemed to be channeLs for error, and also a successor to himself. The accomplishment of these God-directed duties led to the dethronement of error. There are times today when right appears to be trodden in the dust, and wrong to be triumphantly en­ throned; but, in reality, wrong can never be enthroned, nor does it in­ herently possess power. The claim of material sense that there is some­ thing wrong, unjust, or destructive, is the result of a clouded sense or lack qf understanding of God as the only power, and leads to a misunderstand­ ing of true government. Even though but dimly discernible to human sense, omnipotent divine Love is governing alL Supported by immutable law, jus­ tice triumphs and right prevails. This truth is established, and as a higher understanding of God is reached, it will become apparent to numan sense. Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, has written (Miscellaneous Writings, p. 277), "Though clouds are round about Him, the divine justice and judgment are enthroned.” The spiritual understanding of God rends the mists of material sense and the shadows of error, which are hid­ ing from view the fact that “the Lord God omnipotent reigneth." When one ascends the mountains of inspired thought, where the omnipotence of God is revealed, he loses the fear of evil's penalties and threats, and gains the courage to stand firm on the side of right. Standing on the side of right, of obedience to God’s commands, of rec­ ognition and acknowledgment of Him as the only power, one is allied with God, in whom alone real power lies. Obedience to law, or to God’s com­ mands, dependence upon His guid­ ance, and trust in His omnipotence tend to preserve the sense of unity which exists between God and His spiritual creation, and bring one un­ der the protection of law. On the other hand, disobedience to the law of Love, justice, and right doing, being without the pale of law, cannot claim protection under the law which it dls- When allied with God, good, one is allied with all the power that exists. Elijah, therefore, had nothing to fear from the threats of Jezebel; but fail­ ing to remember where power lies, and what constitutes true government he 'et fear drive him many days* journey into the wilderness, whence he had to return,’ take up his duties where he had left off, and continue demonstrating God's power for the enlightenment and deliverance of Is­ rael. Christian Science reveals that might is not in numbers, but in di­ vine justice; that true government, the authority to enforce law. is vest­ ed in the ever present and omnipotent divine Mind. Christian Science makes manifest to human consciousness that all the power there is, in reality, belongs on the side of right. When conscien­ tiously and prayerfully communing with God and claiming divine guid­ ance, one need never be afraid to stand firm on the side which he is convinced is right, even though he stands humanly alone. A right cause or purpose, supported by right think­ ing, wins, not because of prestige or the number Of individuals who are sponsoring it, but because right think- tablish one on the side of divine Principle, God, where power rests.

Gray, High­ Roads. way Engineer, has an in­ teresting article on* low­ cost, farm-to-market roads, in a re­ cent issue of the Manufacturers Rec­ ord. He says; “What a paradox! A country able to produce a surplus of all agricultur­ al products, with prices at give-away levels, so that the farmer is in dis­ tress, and yet with people in actual want in the cities. . . . Inadequate fa­ cilities for distribution and bad roads are a very large factor in this situa­ tion. “What are"low-cost roads?” asks Mr. Gray. "They are roads surfaced with top soil, sand clay, shale, chert, cinders, gravel, crushed stone or sim­ ilar materials so placed on properly graded and drained road beds as to give year-round service. "During the past few years engin­ eering research and science has de­ veloped inexpensive methods of treat­ ing these surfaces with asphalt so as to prevent dust and mud, reduce wear and roughness and, at the same time, give smooth, non-skid roadways . . . with low costs. As traffic increases, it is necessary to add onljTa small ad­ ditional thickness. AU preceding work is saved for further use. Em­ ployment is given to local labor in the preparation of materials." The low-cost road problem is one which every community must consid­ er. Sees Good Ten golden years of prosBusiness. perity were predicted by Charles M. Schwab, chair­ man of Bethlehem Steel Corporation, at the annual dinner of the American Newspaper Publishers’ association. ‘The next ten years are going to see the rehabilitation and improve­ ment of properties,” he told more than 500 publishers from all parts of the United States and Canada. "Elec­ trification will receive new impetus. Prices will become better stabilized. Home Industries will gain. The auto­ mobile will reach new high levels. Ad­ vertising will make increased strides. “In short, the American family will continue to enjoy a well-rounded pro­ gressive existence, conductive to busi­ ness prosperity and progress." Schwab declared that one way of returning prosperity was by main­ taining a high wage scaie. He point­ ed out that many firms maintained high wage standards even though obliged to adopt part time operation. “It is my hope that nothing will develop in our economic structure which will compel the taking of a backward step." he said. NEWS and GOSSIP. We ran across a new one yesterday. One of our merchan friends informed us that he had been approached by a representative from a Grand Rapids broad-casting station for an adver­ tisement for radio use. And of course the price asked for this “service" was very nominal, $35.00 for about five minutes. The merchant ridiculed the idea. It seem* to us that! a broad­ casting station is in mighty small business when it will solicit a small­ city merchant for business that would bring him absolutely no returns for the money spent. Your home-town newspaper will carry your message to regular customers and prospective patrons in such a better and cheaper way as to admit of no comparison. Tle.away from the catch-penny games and spend your money at home, where a portion of it, at least, will come back to you. In these days of so few auction sales we often wonder what has be­ come of the clarion-voiced men who cried the sales. We don’t have to wonder what has become of two of them because we know where they are. They are both good ones and anyone needing the services of an auc­ tioneer will look a long time and trav­ el a long distance to find the equal of either of our local auctioneers. But we digress. We feel that we have discovered the hiding place of the “lost’ ’auctioneers; they have become radio announcers, and we know you will agree with us when you listen to the line of patter handed out by some of the aforesaid announcers. If they pre not "re-modelled" auctioneers, we’ll eat our radio, and it is of quite some size. Here is a new complaint offered against nature by a local amateur gardener. After hours of toil and at some expense this “conscientious ob­ jector" finds than when the little shoots of tender lettuce appear above the ground, and there are pleasant anticipations of a side order of this succulent vegetable, they are immed­ iately gobbled up by the birds that frequent the neighborhood. As this is leaf lettuce we don’t care personal­ ly if the birds eat all that is grown, but this is a selfish assertion. Our advice would be to this gardener (liv­ ing over on the south side), to grow enough lettuce so that birds could have all they wanted and take a chance on there being enough of it ov­ erlooked to supply the family table. In company with some friends, the writer drove to Battle Creek Sunday afternoon, going by the way ,of Hast­ ings and M-37. Chancing to glance up while waiting for a traffic light to change to allow our bus to proceed on down town, we saw a lively little black squirrel making his way along the wires overhead that crossed the street at this place. Now that boy was traveling some, too, doing the ov­ erhand trot, contrary to the usual gait of a squirrel on the ground.

Wood of Detroit said the proposed transfer will save Mich­ igan more than $1,000,000 annually a generation from now when veterans of the World war will be numbered among the inmates. ‘ Gov. Brucker signed the Stevens bill creating a five-man commission to study county, township and school district government in the state. Other bills signed by the governor were: The Look bill, requiring high schools to give courses in civics, cov­ ering the functions of local, state and federal governments, and colleges re­ ceiving state funds to provide cours­ es in political science, which all stu­ dents must take before receiving de­ grees. The Thomas bill, repealing the lo­ cal act fixing county office salaries in Kent and other counties between the population of 240,000 and 500,000 and authorizing the board of supervisors to fix the salaries of the sheriff, coun­ ty clerk, treasurer, register of deeds and their deputies at the October meeting prior to the commencement oX_the officers’ terms, providing the electors of the county signify their wish to come under the act in a local referendum. The Stevens election act permitting statewide recount to be conducted by the counties rather than assembling all ballots in one place. Some others approved by the gov­ ernor are: The Coates bill permitting the attorney general to proceed on his own initiative In disbarment cases and making th<* practicing of law without a license contempt of court; the Burhans bill giving justices of the peace the right to issue criminal warrants for traffic violations with the approval of the department of public safety and without the neces­ sity for approval by the presocutor; The Hartman bill creating the Isle Royale National Park commission to acquire land for transfer to the fed­ eral government. Other bills made law include the Horton bill to remit all pending claims against farmer:' under the old corn borer statute; another Horton bill prohibiting the posting of proper­ ty without authority; the Culver bill reinstating the penalty clause in the narcotics code; the Miller bill requir­ ing notice of adjourned or special meetings of township boards in coun­ ties of over $25,000,000 valuation; the Woodruff-Armstrong bill prohibiting the taking of pictures in grand jury sessions; the Rushton bill giving the governor broad powers of appointing commissions; another Rushton bill to prohibit the locking of taxicab doors. Urially In ridding Mlcbgan nt those aliens who are definitely undesirable. We have too long suffered from the criminal and seditious conduct of those who have no right in this coun­ try. We should support any gesture in the direction of purging our state and our country of these men who carry on this subversive activity. In compelling them to register dr get out of our state will help the situation, then we should favor this course. "While the attorney general has in­ dicated that some questions of con­ stitutionality may be raised on cer­ tain provisions, yet it appears that at least that part of the act may stand which compels recMntKm. It Is still enough to become a law. The al­ most unanimous vote by which the legislature adopted the bill indicated the widespread feeling that the law ko necessary. In view of the principle involved, the executive should not ov­ erthrow the entire act because of poesible defects in features relating only to enforcement.

It reads as follows: A man of our acquaintance in this state has a sister who Is the wife of a farmer. Last Christmas this man went out to his sister’s home and foimd the couple apparently sunk in They confided that they felt pretty blue, and said they had worked hard all year without making a cent of money. They were then considering leaving the farm, moving to town and trusting to luck to get a job so that they and their family might live and improve their condition. The brother-visitor was very inter­ ested. “Let's figure,” he said. Get­ ting out a pencil and paper he began asking questions. He asked how much milk the family used. He ask­ ed if they had any potatoes they had used in the past year. He asked if the man had any beans on hand that he had not sold, and the fanner said that he had a lot of beans. Further, the visitor asked his sister and her husband what kind of a house they would have to have if they mov­ ed into town, and they declared that they would want at least a home as they had on the farm. The brother then said that such a house would cost them at least $25 a month, re­ minded them that their milk, eggs, potatoes; fruits and vegetables would all have to be bought and paid for in money, instead of merely by the labor of raising them. He reminded the man of the stored beans, and figured out their worth, even at the low mar­ ket price, as being considerable. .The upghot of the’whole matter was that the brother demonstrated to the down-hearted sister and her husband that, including their living, they had made approximately $2,900 in the previous year. “Now,” said the' brother, “BUI, where could you get a job in the town I 'live tn that would pay you $2,900 in Bill said that he didn’t know, and ■greed that by doing, odd jobs, or other work that he would be fitted to , do in town, he might possibly expect a return of $1,000 a year. So when the brother went sway, the smile on the faces of his sister and the husband stretched literally from ear to ear. The best part of the story is that itfetrue, and we have faith to believe that there are many farmers and their wives who would discover, if they would sit right down and figure it gut. that they had made more mon­ ey; had less trouble, enjoyed better health and given their children just as great opportunities on the farm as have'people in towns. Distant pastures may look the greenest, but at the same time there is’the story of the man who traveled aff'bver the world looking for “acres of-ffiamonds” and who eventually found them right in bis own back yard at a time of life when he could not use them to advantage. •Farm life may not be a bed of roses^ and we are not claiming that it it does have its compensations, easily discoverable if the farmer will ' time and energy to hunt JL ..Michigan is a great state! • Great in extent and in . scenic beauty.

Present conditions are putting new forces and new oppor­ tunities at the disposal of men who are capable of handling them-" "It Is time for the country to face the facts of this sort. I do not be­ lieve that adjustment is nearly as necessary in the national pocketbook as <lt is In the national mental atti­ tude. "We have had an avalanche of crit­ ics, critics of governmental adminis­ tration, critics of business organiza­ tions, critics of moral standards, crit­ ics of everything in the world, that because of its importance in our so­ cial and economic setup, attracts gen­ eral attention. "I believe that one of the best things we could do as a nation at the present time, would be to subject the critics themselves to a certain amount of criticism. Their tendencies have been to tear down and yet they have offered nothing in the way of how to rebuild. They have succeeded in making us nervous, without making us work. The intelligent spending of money, changing it into productive work, has never failed to bring in­ creased manufacturing and selling ac­ tivity.” Mr. Penney has said these things, many of which have been said before, but because of his high position in the business world, they carry special weight It may be that some will not agree with him, but his statements are in­ teresting. and should be carefully studied by merchants and buyers of merchandise alike. NEWS Robin* are not very particular birds, they'll eat most any kind of a bug. and don’t even care if it's, a worm, and it’s surely a picture worth watching to see a half-dozen of these cocky little pest destroyers flocking about on a freshly cut lawn, eating, eating and eating, until you would think they would burst. that red breast wide open. But we were going to tell you. that on a recently erected bird fountain in the rear of the writ­ er’s home, we saw a big, fat red­ breast helping himself to his morn­ ing’s morning. After taking a couple of shot* inside he eased himself down into the pool and proceeded to take his morning bath. There was a per­ iod of rigorous shaking and fluttering of wings, and then another drink or two. As we said, robins are not very particular. Here is a little item that we ran across in one of the Portland papers that should prove an object lesson to some of our Nashvlle men who are asked sometimes in a rather forceful tone of voice, to assist in the little housecleaning jobs that, usually come along in the spring of the year. This item mentioned a lady who with the assistance of friend husband in holdihg the step-ladder, was re-hanging a picture that of course had been tak­ en down to have Its face washed; lady lost her balance, the step-ladder slip­ ped and 'Ln falling the missus used hubby as a buffer. Result: the injur­ ies sustained by mister now confines him to his bed, while his better half is recovering in a hospital. History does not record the fate of the pic­ ture. This should be sufficient ad­ monition to the most contrary. Boasting seems to be the failing of most men, and it is not always con­ fined to persons, as cities and towns take a hand at the boasting process occasionally, and here is where Nash­ ville can do a little of it herself. And we wish to say: That there are very few cities the size of Nashville that can boast of an antique furniture maker, and all-round good tinker with wood and metal and other things that go into the making of antiques and the repairing of thia class of fine and popular furniture, but we have him.

Green (Wood Brother*) ■ �Hogs and Milk Hogs have been among the best paying stock for a long time and yet the farmers of this section are not as a rule keeping many hogs. There is always a market for hogs and it is a CASH sale as soon as your hogs are ready for market . There are various opinions as to the most economical feed for hogs, but on one thing all agree, that milk with the amount of butter fat that remains after the best separa­ tion is a good feed and yet we find many of our farmers selling whole milk and thus robbing the hogs, chickens, etc., -of one of the best foods they have. The price of whole milk has fallen to such a low point that there is no profit in it. It has been fully demonstrated that milk for hogs, chickens, etc., will net the owner of the stock twice as much as sold as whole milk, and it should be evident to all that the separation of milk, sell­ ing the cream and keeping the milk at home for feed results in a much larger profit. * You may ask, “what does he know about raising hogs?” Well, he may know much more about general farming and stock handling than you think. In hardware stores is where MEN trade, and as they meet and indulge in general conversation one who listens gains a lot of val­ uable information. Again, if one is interested there is a world of agricultural information to be gleaned from farm papers and magazines, and it is, whether YOU be­ lieve it or not, a settled fact among our best informed farmers that milk is a good feed to keep on the farm, and that whole milk has never commanded a price that makes it more valuable to sell than to feed. I have talked with many of my customers and they admit that they have allowed their hog investment to dwindle and they are now sorry. Just think this over, there is a wood of proof that can be submitted to substantiate the above argument. Separate your milk, feed the milk at home, and sell your cream, and your hogs, chickens, etc., will bring you double the return of the price of whole milk. Respectfully yours, C. L.

STATE a*ARKS * Ten million people, more than twice the population of Michigan, will visit the state's parks this season. That is the estimate made by the Parks Division of the Conservation Depart­ ment and based on past attendance records. • The total attendance for all of the parks last year was 8,891,880, an in­ crease of 19 per cent over the prev­ ious year. The figure for 1929 was 7,454,741, representing an increase; of 39 per cent over 1928. If last year’s increase is maintained the 1931 spason will record 10,229,000 visitors. The number of visitors and camp­ ers at the parks is largely dependent upon the weather. In normal seasons the increase has averaged 15 to.20 per cent.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCH HOLDS ANNUAL MEETING Seventy-nine new nrancnes of the Christian Science Church were organ­ ized last year, it was announced at the annual meeting of The Mother Church, held June 8 in Boston. Six thousand members from many parts of the world, including a large group from Michigan, attended the meeting. There are now 2,519 Christian Science churches and societies, besides forty college and university organizations.. Of the new’ churches organized this year, forty-five are in North America and twenty-six in Europe. For the first time Poland has a branch church. Robert E. Buffem of Belmont, Mas­ sachusetts, prominent Boston attor­ ney. was elected President of The Mother Church for the ensuing year. It was announced that The Chris­ tian Science Journal now has s circu­ lation of 124,000. and the Sentinel of 193,000. Periodicals are issued«in six languages besides English, as well as in Braille type for the use of the blind. There are more than nine hun­ dred employees in the Boston publish­ ing house. During the year the church gave funds for relief of hurricane sufferers in Santo Domingo, and for other re­ lief activities in New Zealand, Java, China, Italy and Germany, besides ex­ tending aid to drought sufferers in the Mississippi Valley. The growth of Christian Science depends directly upon spiritual heal­ ing in accord with its teachings, de­ clared Duncan Sinclair, retiring pres­ ident. "Principally,’’ he added, “the progress of our movement is deter­ mined by the growth oi the spiritual understanding of Christian Scientists throughout the w’orld — by their growth in spirituality and their power to heal. In giving Christian Science to the world our beloved leader, Mary Baker Eddy, has ilumined the Word of God as contained in the sacred Scriptures, made practical the teach­ ings and works of the Way-shower, and demonstrated their availability and efficacy in solving all of the prob­ lems of the human race." Among the speakers at the meet­ ing was Mrs. Annie M. Knott, former­ ly of Detroit, who is a member of The Christian Science Board of Directors. Tonight. Thursday, at 7:30, we will resume holding our regular mid-week service in the church. Under the able leadership of the pastor, we will con­ tinue our Bible study, the lesson for this week being the first chapter of the Book of Revelation. All who wish are cordially invited to share these interesting and helpful meetings with us. The associate pastor. Miss Ada E.

The 4-H club day activities held at the county seat and eighth grade graduation exercises carried on at the same gathering, brought more than a thousand boys and girls, to­ gether with parents and friends, to Hastings for these two events on June 5. The rural pupils, 192 of them, received their diplomas, and county champions their awards. Exhibits by various 4-H clubs were featured in booths underneath the gallery. The articles displayed includ­ ed clothing, rugs, and various exam­ ples of woodcraft. The morning was devoted to a spell­ ing contest and a track meet super­ vised by "Dad” Angell while in the afternoon an indoor program was held in the church at which time awards were made. The guest speakers were A. G. Kettunen, State Club Leader, of Michigan State college. Miss Harriett Shaver and P. G. Lunden. assistant state club leaders, also of Michigan State college. Awards made for 4-H club activities are as follows: Clothing: Rachel Marshall, first year; Geneva Couch, second year; Hannah Jones, third year; and Leona Miller, fourth year.

The spelling contest was won by Mildred Nickerson of Stevens school, Johnstown, while Oma Jean Garrison of Cloverdale took second. Maxett Bennett of Coats Grove won the state fair Ag. test, thus winning a free trip to the state fair. Henry Turaes of Gregory placed second and will serve as alternate in case Bennett is unable to take advantage of the trip. Winners in the boys’ track meet August, the month of vacations, picnics, reunions and home-comings, seems likely at this time to be settled upon for a celebration of more than local nature and even more than county wide interest. The event in question is the pro­ posed centennial celebration of the settlement of Barry county, and which will honor Amasa Parker, who took up government land on section 35, Prairieville township, in 1831. Representatives of the Barry County Farm Bureau,. Barry County Po­ mona Grange, the Lions club, and Commercial clubs of Hastings, met recently at Delton to confer, and Eli Lindsey was chosen general chairman with full authority to name commit­ tees to look after program and other arrangements for the celebration, which will probably be held in Prairie­ ville township and probably near Gull like, the southwest corner of the county. An historical pageant, such as was recently staged at Fruit Ridge honor­ ing the late George B. Horton, for­ mer head of the state and national granges, state legislator and prom­ inent farmer and business man. to be built upon the settlement and develop­ ment in the century following, would oe fitting indeed for an event of this kind.9 Nashville “Dollar Day” Held June 26-27 Nashville merchants in co-operation with the Chamber of Commerce an­ nounce a “Dollar Day” sale of mer­ chandise Friday and Saturday, June 26-27.

These features explain why thousands of farmers are mowing their hay with the John Deere High Lift Mower The lift is surprisingly easy to operate. By exerting only slight pressure on the foot-lift you raise the bar high enough to pass over ordinary obstruc­ tions and when you put the hand-lift into use. the bar is easily raiseti to extreme height ■traction that can be cleared by the doubletrees and the knife continues to operate in this position. This improved lift is so easy to handle a boy can operate it. The quick-turn tongue truck saves the horses and results in mounted axle permits truck wheels to hold to the ground. There is no neck weight on the horses, and whipping of pole is eliminated. The truck always keeps the front end of mower frame at the correct height, Other advantages include balanced drive gears, which reduce wear and insure smooth running; special location of bevel pinion, which prevents end thrust; 21-point clutch, which insures instant starting; adjustments made with ordi­ nary tools.

Here and There ’♦»$mMWmi<IW4«l*ll | I A big-hearted Swedish woman who moved from a bickering boarding house to a 3,200-acre ranch and be­ came the state’s cattle queen, was buried at Livingston. Montana. Gen­ erous to those in need, undismayed by the rigors cf ranch life, Mrs. Margaret Carlston not only made her own small fortune, but lost it and beat back again to financial independence thru sheer business aptitude and hard work. It was back in 1878 that she took over a boarding house at the Jay Gould camp near Silver City and she catered to the whims of miner* 25 years. She went to Montana from Deadwood, S. D. In 1903 she pur­ chased a large ranch to become one of Montana's leading cattle dealers. She drove hlg herds of horses to Canada for sale each year. Twenty years ago she was marketing three or four trainloads of cattle annually. Mrs. Carlston suffered her greatest rever­ sal in the failure of a bank eight years ago. Although she was 60 years old, she carried on to regain almost all of her former holdings before she died. Four sons survive. Wm. T. Kinsey, Civil war veteran of Douglas, still operates a car at the age of 91. He has driven p Ford car the past 15 or 18 years, has driven to and from Florida five times, and has never had an accident. Mr. Klmsey has Hved the transformation in transportation methods. In 1842 he rode in a covered wagon, drawn by an ox team, from -Ohio into Indiana. That trip took longer than the time required to cover the entire route on his recent tours to Florida. The Douglas veteran attended the 1860 convention that nominated Abraham Lincoln for the presidency. In 1861 he joined the 44th Indiana Volunteer infantry. He took part in about 60 engagements, including Fort Donald­ son, Shiloh, Stone River. Chickamau­ ga. Nashville, Mission Ridge, Look­ out Mountain, Atlanta and others.

Among the citations which com­ prise the Lesson-Sermon is the fol­ lowing from the Bible: "But the day । of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.” (H Pet­ er 3:10). The Lesson-Sermon also includes the following passage from the Chris­ tian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures,” by Mary Baker Eddy: "Material sub­ stances or mundane formations, as­ tronomical calculations, and all the paraphernalia of speculative theories, Evangelical Church. based on the hypothesis of material "I was glad when they said unto law or life and intelligence resident in me, let us go into the house of the ! matter, will ultimately vanish, swal­ Lord.” Ps 122:1. lowed up in the infinite calculus qf Morning worship and sermon, "Im­ Spirit, (p. 209). perfect Saints," 10:00.

Vance, Charlotte, And Miss Annual Monthly Gathering Is Held Nashville is beautiful at this time of year, made so more or less by the profuse display of shrubbery and flower beds in almost every yard in the city. A few years ago there were but a few homes in town with any shrubbery whatever, the average place being almost without adorn­ ment. But today it is different—the tendency toward the beautification of the home has become almost univer­ sal, and there are few homes that do not boast of many of the beautiful shrubs of the spirea variety, snowy white with thousands of blossoms in the spring and summer and still a gracious adornment for the yard when the blossoms are gnoe. In this matter of adorning their premises there were, as in all other things, pioneers who started the movement, but the idea has prospered and a drive about the city will im­ press one with the care and real taste exhibited in many yards. Rock gar­ dens are also in evidence in many places, surrounded by beautiful flow­ ers and ferns, and the ever present bird house and bird fountain. These pleasant places are concrete examples of what can be done with God’s re­ sources if only a little? energy is dis­ played. Nashville and the surround­ ing country are beautiful and the whole world is a gorgeous picture at this time of year. There are of course things that could be done to the banks of the Thornapple river and to the mill-pond spreading above the bridge to make this spot more beautiful, but this matter will come later. Without the beauties of nature, life would be most depressing. Business conditions are not all we could wish, yet the Creator has given us the glor­ ies of nature to sort of alleviate the annoyance of a temporary business slump and to take our minds off some of the unpleasant things of life. Former Nashville Pastor Is Hoonred Rev. A. L. Bingaman, Now At Ionia, Given Formal Welcome And A Reception. A public recognition service for Rev. A. L. Bingaman, new pastor of the Ionia Evangelical church was giv­ en recently by the ministers of the city. The welcome was the second for Mr. Bingaman, who re­ cently succeeded Rev. W. F. Bdettcher, assigned to Buchanan. The first was given by the Evangelical congre­ gation early in the month. The reception took place in the Evangelical church at 7:30 o'clock. Dr. W. K. Spencer, dean of the city ministry’ presided. Representatives of various of the seven churches who are members of the City Ministerial Un­ ion took part in the program. Following an opening hymn, there was a scripture reading by Rev. F. J. Fitch; prayer by Rev. W. F. Ken­ drick; a hymn, offering, special music and then an introduction by Rev. Paul L. Stewart. Following a response by Rev. Bin­ gaman there was another hymn, a prayer by Rev. R. E. Karban and a benediction by Rev. J. M. Jensen. The reception was a union service and open to all. tains Highest Marks Ever Awarded. Large Attendance—Excellent Program Followed. Margaret MacNaughton Married At Milliken. Nashville is Indeed proud to have one of its college girls come home to spend her vacation and bring with her the honor of being the first student tn Kalamazoo college's 98 years to have all A marks for four years' work. That distinction belongs to Mary Elizabeth Smith, better known to her townspeople as Elizabeth. On Mon­ day of last week Elizabeth was grad­ uated from the Kalamazoo college with Summa Cum Laude distinction, and received the C._ W. Oakley prize awarded annually to the senior who graduates with the highest scholastic standing. Elizabeth has completed one hundred thirty-one hours of all A work, representing eleven more hours than are necessary to receive her degree of Bachelor of Arts. She majored in English literature, and her minor work was dpne in mathematics, French and education. In 1928-29 she was awarded the Farley prize in English literature, and the Triskett prize in sophomore mathematics. Each year she was awarded honors for her high standings. Elizabeth's time has by no means been all taken up by hard study. She was a popular member of campus so­ cieties and activities. While she was still a student in the Nashville schools she was a clever musician, and at Kalamazoo she continued along this line, too. and pianist for the college orchestra during the past year, a member of the college choir, and pianist for the Gaynor club. For four years she was a member of the Pi Kappa Delta, society, and was its president in 1930. Several times dur­ ing Elizabeth’s home-comings during her school year at Kalamazoo she would bring girl friends home with her, who would entertain her towns­ people with musical numbers in the Methodist church, where she had at­ tended church and Sunday school since a little girl. Her many friends will recall that when she graduated from Nashville in 1927 she was valedictorian. Next year she will enter the University of Michigan, where she will continue her studies in literature. She was award­ ed a fellowship prize by the Univer­ sity in recognition of her high schol­ astic standing at Kalamazoo. Last Thursday afternoon at six-thirty, Elizabeth was invited to speak over WELL, the Battle Creek broadcast­ ing station, and those in charge were indeed proud to have her as their guest. An enjoyable event of Tuesday ev­ ening in Nashville was the ‘‘Family Party" of Laurel Chapter No. 31, Or­ der of the Eastern Star, given at the Masonic Temple and on the first floor so that all of the older members might attend and enjoy the occasion. The affair began with a 7 o'clock potluck supper served at tables form­ ing a square, but with an opening so that people could be seated at both sides of the tables. A small table was placed in the center. All were at­ tractively decorated in lavender and white crepe paper and garden flow­ ers. roses, gladioli, perennial sweet peas, larkspur, etc. With the satisfying repast over, came the program arranged for enter­ tainment and in compliment to two of its long time members and former faithful officers. A. G. Murray and Miss Edith Fleming. This was mostly musical and all very pleasing. Mildred Galey and Gladys Potter each sang two solos, with Leia Roe as accompanist, and two numbers were also given by the Ladies' quartette, composed of Mrs. Gladys Edmonds, Mrs. Carl Tuttle, Mi's. Leia Roe and Mrs. L. Maude Evans, with Mrs. Pauline Lykins playing the accompaniment. Mrs. Melissa Roe, the chapter's only char­ ter member, gave an interesting talk of a reminiscent nature, referring to the honorary guests. A. G. Murray, who has retired re­ cently from the work of worthy pat­ ron because of ill health, has alto­ gether, not consecutively, been wor­ thy patron of Laurel Chapter for 28 years, serving faithfully an8 con­ scientiously in every way. Mrs. W. A. Vance, in a lovely little testimonial of this service, presented Mr. Murray with his past patron's jewel, and Mrs. Villa Olin, in a charming way. pre­ sented the life certificate of member­ ship to Miss Fleming, who had been secretary at different times 18 years in all, and correspondingly faithful, and a member of the order a few days over 47 years. Mr. Murray, in responding, gave a little talk express­ ing his appreciation, and Miss Flem­ ing in a few words thanked the chap­ ter for this fitting recognition of her service and membership. Mrs. Mar­ tens. worthy matron, also made some remarks of appreciation, particularly with regard to her work with Mr. Murray. As a concluding feature the com­ pany sang “God Be With You Till We Meet Again." Amid a bower of thousands of beau­ tiful pink and white roses and a host of friends and relatives, to the strains of the Mendelssohn wedding march, the charming Miss Margaret Linda MacNaughton became the happy bride of Ur. William Alton Vance of Charlotte. The ceremony was marked by beau­ tiful simplicity, and took place on Saturday evening at the home of the bride's parents in Mulliken. The bride was lovely in a gown of white chiffon, fashioned-on princess lines, and carried white roses. She was attended by her sister. Miss Bea­ trice MacNaughton. and Miss Nana Reed, who were attractively gowned in shell pink and pale green, and car­ ried bouquets of mixed spring flow­ ers. Dr. M A. Vance of Eaton Rap­ ids, brother of the groom, and Dr. Merle Walker of Lansing were the groom's attendant.^. Fred Smith of Lansing sang “Un­ til" and “I Love You Only," accom­ panied by Mrs. Oscar LeVan of Mulli­ ken. The ceremony was performed by Rev. W. Y. PohTey of Owosso. Lat­ er ice cream, formed in the shape of wedding bells and rings, and assorted cake was served to 60 guests. A beautiful bridal cake was mounted on a table surrounded by roses and white tapers in silver candelabras. The bride, a graduate of Michigan State Normal college, was one of the most popular young ladies of Mulli­ ken and Lansing, where she had been teaching. Dr. Vance is a graduate of the University of Michigan, is the younger son of Dr. and Mrs. W. A. Vance of Nashville, and a practising dentist of Charlotte. After a short honeymoon the newly­ weds will be at home to their many friends, in their newly furnished home at 320 E. Lovett St., Charlotte. Out of town guests included Lieut. K. MacNaughton of Chanute Field, HL, Dr. and Mrs. Vance of Nashville, Dr. and Mrs. Merle Vance of Eaton Rapids, Mrs. Daisy Townsend of Ann Arbor, Mr. and Mxs. P. W.

At The Belnon Cafe With Good Attendance. The more than two hundred lakes* scattered throughout the Tnoraappta Valley (In what is now Barry county) offered to the Ottawas and Potta­ watomics great opportunities for hunting’ trapping, fishing and canoe­ ing. The lower peninsula to them was merely a recreational spot, for they wintered always north of Mackinac, in the spring bringing their families south, some of them going up the Thornapple into the center of the county. A few of the tribes stayed permanently, so pleased were they with the fertile lowlands and the trapping grounds. One of these waa led by Chief Noonday, or Sagamauw, who although he is said to have taken part in some massacres, later became converted at (he Slater Mission which was near Cressey in the southern part of the county. Farther east other chiefs had their tribal hunting grounds — Sundago, Askasaw, and Saube, a resort near Woodland being named after the latter. Thus for un­ told years on the banks of the Sowan-que-sake, “Forked River," the Indians set up their wigwams, plant­ ed their gardens, trained their youths. Many trading posts were establish­ ed but their exact location is forgot­ ten, except that of a Frenchman, by the name of Moreau, whose post waa on the banks of the Thornapple about six miles north of Hastings. Later be moved his trading post to a block­ house near Green lake, a few miles from Middleville. In the wake of the fur traders with their stories of the beauty, productiv­ ity and water power of this country, came settlers, desiring to take up land and hew out their fortunes. In 1836 William (Yankee) Lewis and family arrived with their covered wagons at the Springs, near Middle­ ville. It was indeed a howling wil­ derness, with Indians the only inhabi­ tants from Middleville to Ada. He opened a tavern and being on one of the important trails leading to Grand Rapids, it was very popular, some­ times as many as one hundred people spending the night there. Illustrious personages were among Yankee Lew­ is' guests, even General Cass. Of course traders and speculators were most numerous but in 1836 real set­ tlers appeared, among them Eurotea P. Hastings, who sold to a group of three gentlemen the land on which, Hastings is now located. A year later Hastings, Yankee Springs, Mid­ dle Village and a little settlement called Bull's Prairie, were the four principal places in the county. Today Hastings has outdistanced them all, being a manufacturing cen­ ter of more than six thousand people. Modern highways thread the hills and valleys, leading to the many lakes and resorts, with pleasant by-roads that thrill the city-tired. The hills of Bar­ ry although interesting because of the changing vista which they afford the traveler, intrigue the golfer too, with courses at Hastings and Middleville. Just to list the names of Barry's lakes would be a happy task, each one calling up a reason for its being a delightful objective for the traveler or vacationist. What bass fisherman does not know the Thornapple River and Lake? The lakes of Barry, while fished much, are kept well-stocked from the fish hatchery at Hastings; thus, besides the gamey bass, there is an abundance of blue gills, perch, pickerel, and other fresh water fish; even a number of good-sized muskellunge are caught each year in Gun.

The annual monthly meeting of the Nashville Chamber of Commerce was held at the Belson Cafe Monday even­ ing. -Twenty-nine members and their guests sat down- to the usual fine din­ ner served by this cafe. This was a shirt-sleeve party, and practically every member dressed for the weather, which was quite warm. Three guests were present. Rev. W. D. Hayes, new'Evangelical minister, H. H. McVeigh and E. B. Townsend, fol­ lowing dinner the usual business meeting was held, reports of various committees received and passed upon. Regarding the closing of the busi­ ness places the Fourth of July, it was suggested the same plan be carried out that covered the Decoration Day closing. Open Friday evening, and Saturday morning until 9:00 o’clock, closing until six o'clock Saturday and open Saturday evening. Rev. W. D. Hayes was introduced by the chairman of the entertainment committee, 'C. L. Glasgow, and gave a very nice little talk, interspersed with humorous stories, and one real feature, an original poem, written for and addressed to Henry Ford, maker of the famous "Tin Lizzie," one of which probably every member pres­ ent had owned at some time, and was proud of it. The “poem" follows: A Preacher's Tribute To The Ford. Dear Mr. Henry Ford: I hope you'll not be bored, While you read this short epistle 'Bout the preacher ahd his Ford. The old circuit rider rode His large circuit while he sowed The Word of God to people. But a horse he always rode. But times have changed a bit For the preacher and his kit,— And to you we’re very thankful For the plan on which you hit. For the Ford sure fills the bill, And It climbs up any hill. And we always get to meeting. So we keep the folks’ good will. So we want to give to you All the credit that is due, For we preachers have a luxury Which our fathers never knew. Now our circuit’s not so long. And our health is good and strong; While our fathers left the kids at home, Now we take them all along. Yes, our children like the Ford, (And for this we thank the Lord) And we never buy them rattles, For in Henry there's a horde. So it lessens the expense In a family quite immense, So we're one and all for Henry— We all speak in Its defense. So. y«u see it satisfies, ' (Though the motor sometimes dies) And a preacher sometimes wonders If he’ll have one in the skies. So we feel we.'have in you A benefactor true, And with the best of wishes I bid you now adieu. It was decided not to hold further meetings during the warm weather, and the date of the next meeting was set for the last Monday evening in September. The meeting was presided over by the vice president, Gordon C. Ed­ monds.

A Real Surprise— I’ll Say It Was i fruit, Howers V Missionary Conven­ tion Here On Friday I CHURCH NOTES The Lansing Zone Missionary con­ vention of the Nazarene church which convened here last Friday was quite well attended, considering the quite busy time of year. There were sev­ en societies represented out of ten. The program was carried out as follows: Devotionals conducted by Mrs. J. C. Lambert of Lansing in the morning. A fine paper on "Brief Survey of India and Our Workers" was given by Mrs. Frappier of Lans­ ing; also a talk by Miss Dene Gilbert of Lansing on her Missionary tour of the island. At* midday there was a fine picnic dinner in Putnam Park. Devotionals in the afternoon by Charlotte. The afternoon session was taken up mostly by the work of the Juniors, prayers and fasting league, and a business session. The evening service was very good. Rev. Myrtle Sharp of St. Louis brought us a stirring message on Missions. There was a larger at­ tendance in the evening than during the day. There were two special songs given. Everyone went home to w’ork to push missions at home and abroad more than ever before. The papers that were given were all good. The next Zone convention will be held at Jackson. |Ve are anticipat­ ing a great time there. Venus Pennock, Secretary. Met Old Friends. Mrs. Ora Belle Milner of Seattle stopped off at Nashville en route home after having witnessed the graduation of her son Walter at West Point Academy, and was the guest of Mrs. Ward Gribbin on Thursday. Mrs. Mil­ ner is a former Nashville resident, and this is the first time she had had the opportunity to greet friends and acquaintances here in thirty years. Mrs. Gribbin invited in several of her former friends, and they enjoyed the afternoon visiting. Those present were Mrs. Frank Lentz. Mrs. J. C. Fumiss, Mrs. Elsie Furniss, Mrs. C. P. Sprague, Mrs. John Greene, Mrs. Fred Bullis and Mrs. Frank Caley. Father And Son Service. The Methodist church was the scene of an interesting service Sun­ day morning when Rev S. J. Francis preached an excellent sermon to the "Fathers and Sons" in honor of Fath­ er’s Day. There was quite a repre­ sentation of the fathers and sons either of their own or borrowed for the occasion. They marched in to­ gether and sat together during the inspiring service. Dr. Lofdahl added to the fineness of the service with a lovely solo. No Fair This Year.

Con­ verging black clouds gave evidence of the approaching disturbance, and people hurried to dose windows, se­ cure doors, etc., a few even taking refuge in the “cyclone cellars." The roll of thunder and crash of lightning for the brief duration of the storm resembled an old-time Fourth of July celebration. Several bolts struck within the limits of the vil­ lage. causing damage in scores of homes. Two large transformers of the Consumers Power Co. and a num­ ber of fuses were burned out, and in many houses radio sets were badly damaged. In one or two instances small blazes were started, which were extinguished, however, before any serious damage was incurred. The large home-coming banner, suspended over Main street was whipped down in the wind, an anchor rope pulling the top off the chimney on the Dia­ mante Store, and the sign smashing out a window in the E. V. Smith office on the east side of the street Numerous freaks of the windstorm are reported. Mrs. Clair Pennock was writing a letter and did not notice the storm coming. As she sealed and stamped the epistle, the gale blew a window in and took a kettle of pota­ toes off the oil stove nearby. She stepped to the door and another gust snatched the letter from her band, carried it out over the river and drop­ ped it in the water. William Feighner, an aged resident, was fishing at Lake One when the storm broke. In his baste to reach shore he broke an oarlock, and the wind carried his boat back across the lake, where he clung to some reeds until rescued by his son, Haz, and some neighbors.

This was the message given to him This beautiful poem presents a great truth. Mrs. Eddy writes in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures” (p. 326), “Working aad praying with true motives, your Fath­ er will open the way." God has work for each of us to do. To each hi* task. The faithful carrying out of our work brings much blessing. As we live the life that approaches God, good, we spontaneously do the works of Love in the world; we demonstrate the power of Love. If our life does not go out of itself In service, we run grave danger of becoming material, cold, and self-centered; whereas we grow strong by reflecting Love. To pray, as Christian Science teaches, for the advancement of the kingdom of heaven; to promote the feeling of true brotherhood; to help those under the belief of lack, oppression, and sorrow, helps us in our spiritual growth; and happy is he who does these things naturally and willingly. In thus seek­ ing to bless and heal others, one is oneself being blessed and healed. The study of the life of Jesus shows us plainly what our life should be. There must be the waiting upon God in prayer and spiritual worship, and the life of service. Both are In­ dispensable for our progress. On the mount of transfiguration we see Jesus in spiritual communion. The disci­ ples felt how good it was to be in that holy place of spiritual illumination. They would have tarried there. But beneath the mount was work to be done. They must descend, and divine Love would still be with them. For all, there remained much work to do. Jesus was to demonstrate God's pow­ er to heal and to destroy sin, sick­ ness, and death. In preparation for the great work which was appointed for them the disciples had to wait, to learn to obey. It was because Jesus waited upon his Father that he was able to serve. Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, al­ so knew how to wait upon the Fath­ er; and she writes, "When we wait patiently on God and seek Truth righteously, He directs our path” (Science and Health, p. 254). In his first epistle Peter speaks of Christ Jesus' leaving "an example, that ye should follow his steps.” The Greek word which is translated "example" means also a writing copy, one pre­ sumably set by a master to be exact­ ly reproduce J. So in all our work we should strive to copy the divine attri­ butes exemplified by the Way-showei, looking with constant attention to the great original, divine Mind. He who thus strives not only will destroy the human sense of evil and become conscious of good for himself, but will endeavor to recognize and love his neighbor's real selfhood. In so doing he will be fulfilling "the law of Christ,” to which Paul referred ■when he bade the Galatians, "Bear ye one another's burdens.” The law of Christ is the law of Love. On page 288 of "The First Church of Christ. Scientist, and Miscellany” Mrs. Eddy tells us that "love for mankind is the elevator of the human race; it demon­ strates Truth and reflect* divine Love.” We must therefore manifest the law of Christ, the law of Love. In this way we shall know God’* will, Good The State Fire Marshal De­ Work. partmerit of Louisiana is making an earnest effort to banish fire waste in that state.

On investigation, it was found to be a large pike that had evidently been hooked and broke loose taking the large hook with him in such a way that his mouth was held partially op­ en.

On June 1, 1931, there were 79,000 fewer private automobiles in opera­ tion in Michigan than on the same date a year ago, department of state records show. At.the same time the Your Charles H. Ward and wife to EdKotrba Park, Yankee Fanners Assured Crop Outlook Best Free FREE Free Federal Report Show* Rosy Condi­ tion—Hay Is Only Thing Doubtful. The outlook for farm crops tn Michigan on June 1 was the best in several years. Oats and barley were sown a little earlier than usual and corn planting was completed in ad­ vance of the average date. While there has been a marked deficiency of sub-soil moisture throughout the spring and the surface soil has been rather dry in some sections, there has been sufficient moisture and warmth to induce proper germination, and the growing condition of all grain crops is generally above that of last year and considerably above the ten-year average. Good rains since June 1 have materially Increased the mois­ ture supply and further Improved the general crop prospects according to a statement released by Herbert E. Powell, State Commissioner of Agri­ culture and Verne H. Church, United States Agricultural statistician. The reported condition of oats and barley is 87 per cent, which is five points above the ten-year average for both crops. Winter wheat is still in a very promising condition,* being reported at 90 per cent of normal, which is equivalent to a production of 16,380,­ 000 bushels. Most of the crop is head­ ed in the southern half of the state and stands are uniformly good. The growth is rank in certain localities and some reports of lodging were re­ ceived. Sever frosts on May 23d and 24th may have caused some injury although not apparent at the time of report. The outlook for hay is the least promising of any important Michigan crop. New seedings were badly kill­ ed out by drought last summer and old meadows have been slow in start­ ing this spring. Tbe present condition of 71 per cent is seven points below the ten-year average and ten points under the June 1 condition of last year. With the reduced acreage and low condition, the 1931 crop will un­ doubtedly be the shortest in many years. Alfalfa is in much better con­ dition than clover and timothy and will constitute a larger percentage of the hay tonnage this year than usual. Pasture conditions are also seven points below normal. While the preliminary acreage es­ timates for spring crops will not be available until July, the abundance of labor and favorable planting condi­ tions indicate moderate Increases in most of them. Beans and potatoes are now being planted although the recent heavy rains have caused a tem­ porary suspension. Many acres of these crops were also planted before the rains. Fruit prospects are the best in sev­ eral years. The bloom was heavy on apples, peaches, plums and cherries; the weather was favorable for pollina­ tion and the set was generally good. Pears did not bloom so heavily nor set so freely, the reported condition be­ ing 60 per cent of normal. The per­ centages of normal condition for the other fruits were reported as follows: apples, 83; peaches, 83; cherries, 80; plums. 80: blackberries and raspber­ ries. 79; strawberries, 70; and grapes. 64. Frosts and freezing weather late in April and again during the third week of May caused considerable injury to grapes in the southwestern Michigan commercial area and some local damage throughout the state to grapes, pears, cherries, early apples, and strawberries. Notwithstanding these losses, the outlook is much above • average for all fruits except grapes and pears. FREE ROLL OF FILM IF YOU DO NOT GET A GOOD PICTURE WITH EVERY EXPOSURE.

Acetylene Welding and Auto Repairing Auto Accessories Ford Replacement Parts HURD GARAGE, Nashville EATON RAPIDS LADY HAS RARE SPECIMENS OF FISH While on her western trip Mrs. Car­ rie Natusch sent Mrs. Sherman sev­ eral tropical and semi-tropical fish, a pair of Paradise fish and several of the Guppy variety. The Paradise fish are of a pinkish color with stripes, be­ ing about two inches in length. They have a flowing tail and are unusually beautiful and a rare specie in this sec­ tion. The xftale fish makes a nest of bubbles and the female hatches her eggs under the bubbles, there being food enough in the bubbles to keep the young alive for three days. A few days ago about one hundred tiny Par­ adise fish were born to this pair, and Mrs. Sherman is making an effort to raise them. After the three day per­ iod special food must be given the fish until they grow to maturity, ter the birth of the young fish the male and female were separated and placed in bowls by themselves, but this did not seem to their liking and while Mrs. Sherman was absent both fish jumped from the bowls and were later found dead. She is now making an effort to raise the young without a father or mother. The Guppy fish give birth direct from the mother, the egg process being eliminated. She now has six baby Guppies about a week old. They are of a grayish col­ or and spotted. The full grown fish 1* about an inch long, *ix to twelve are usually bo Eaton Rapids Journal TH OS.

Mildred Wenger of Alaska, her friend, Mr. Albright of Grand­ ville. and Robert Sherington of Alas­ ka. brother-in-law of Noah and Menno Wenger, were among the 25 or more from Michigan in attendance upon the annual reunion of the descendants of Christian Wenger, gathering last Saturday at Mrs. Jacob Wenger’s at Wakarusa. Ind. About 150 were in attendance this year, with the finest of dinners and a program by the chib dren, and much visiting as usual. Christian Wenger came to Virginia from Germany and later located in Pennsylvania, where he had a land grant from William Penn. Pennsyl­ vania was the home for some genera­ tions of the Wengers. The 1932 re­ union will be held at the home town of Zimmerman G .Wenger, president of the reunion, Caledonia, where if pleasant the state park will be utliizd and if stormy the reunion will be held in a hall there. The local mem­ bers of the family in attendance, who are in the fifth generation from Christian Wenger, their first Amer­ ican ancestor, report a very enjoyable event at Wakarusa. HIGHWAY OFFICIALS MEET IN HASTINGS FOR CONFERENCE Representatives of the state high­ way department were in Hastings recently in explanation of the new McNItt highway bill, in regard to the status of the townships, the counties and the state, as provided for by this bill. J. W. Hannen. secretary of the Michigan Good Roads association and publisher of the Michigan Roads and Airports, Mr .Brown, an assistant in the maintenance department of the state highway department. M. D. Car­ mody of the state highway depart­ ment, L. W. Feighnr, state represen­ tative from Barry county, and Pro­ fessor Rothgary of Michigan State college, were the speakers. In Etamet county, northern Michigan, 546 miles of township roads will be trans­ ferred to the county in the next five years, 20 per cent of this amount in October of this year, in line with the new law. The Nashville Independents played their week end games at the Laka House grounds at Thoinappie lake, and maintained a perfect record by winning both contests. Saturday’s game with Vermontville was e com­ edy of erratic playing that resulted in a score of 15 to 1. Woodard did the hurling for Naahville, allowing seven hits and getting nine strike­ outs. Weyant and Davis divided the mound work for Vermontville, and while the score sheet credits them with 14 strike-outs, their wildness and a total lack of support from their team-mates turned the game into a one-sided farce. The Sunday game with the Civic Colored Leaguers of Battle Creek was an entirely different exhibition, the locals Winning a 3 to 0 shut-out In seven innings. Archie Martin and Yarger were the battery for Nash­ ville, and Archie was in first class form, granting but four scattered sin­ gles and retiring nine by the strike­ out route. Morris started in the box for the colored boys, but was replaced in the latter part of the game by B. Selby. Nashville scored two runs in the fifth on a pass and two hits, and bunched three hits in the sixth for one more. . Next Sunday afternoon the Inde­ pendents will play another colored team, the Albion Colored Giants, at the Lake House grounds. This shotfld be a good hot game, as the Albion nine showed up a little stronger than the Civic Leaguers in a recently play­ ed contest. BREAKS LITTLE FINGER IN SAVING SELF FROM FALLING C. L.

Y. City. THURSDAY, JULY 9, 1931 Think Methods of collecting tax-. This Over es and the frequency of the payments are fully as important as the amount itself. Some months ago we first mentioned .this phase of tax collection, and we are so impressed by its feasibility that we have harped away on it several times since. This week there came to our desk a circular which advertised an issue of bonds for the city of Knoxville. Tennessee. Excerpts ■'from the circular show some interesting facs. .We recommend that every tax­ payer and every cty, village and town­ ship official read them and think them ©ver: —Tn the last four years Knoxville has levied $12,781,907 in taxes; —In the same period they have col­ lected $12,029,133; —Better than 94 per cent of their taxes have actually been paid, and thin in a city which is not in the rich industrial area and has its large per­ centage of colored population; —The circular says. "Knoxville now collects taxes quarterly, allowing tax­ payers benefit of 9 per cent on unma­ tured portion of their payment" The circular which was issued toy a large Chicago investment bank, says that this plan creates a decided sav­ ing to taxpayers for eatly payment and encourages tax collections and that the new plan is working admir- gigantic volume of traffic over long distances. No other agency is more essential to the proper functioning of modern industry. More than $25,000,000,000 is invest­ ed'in American railroads by over 2,000,000 investors. The lines are one of our greatest employers, taxpayers and buyers of materials and supplies from a multitude of other .industries. These simple facts should cause any thoughtful person to realize that the “railroad problem” is. a very real problem in the life of a majority of American families. After Depression We are indebted to —What? Rockwell Smith, a real estate man of Van Nuys, California, for the collec­ tion of certain facts about financial depressions in the past, which should be valuable in predicting the future. Mr. Smith went through a file of newspapers back to the 1850’s and finds these facts: w There was a business depression in 1857 lasting 12 months. There was a business depression in 1869 lasting eight months. There was a business depression tn 1873 lasting 30 months. There was a business depression in 1884 lasting 22 months. There was a business depression in 1887 lasting ten months. There was a business depression in 1893 lasting 25 months. There was a business depression in 1903 lasting 25 months. There was a business depression in 19C7 lasting 12 months. There was a business depression in 1914 lasting eight months. ■ There was a business depression in 1921 lasting 14 months. ‘ The important thing about these past panics, however, is that every one of them has been followed by flush times, and the longer the de­ pression lasted, the longer and more active the “boom." The present depression has now ’ . .-----««20 --------*•-We can lasted nearly months. hardly say that the “boom" which will surely follow it has begun, but it is clearly on its way. And when it comes—oh, boy!

But that isn’t the story, the rose bush is what we were going to talk about This bush was bought pud set out when our landlord was married, fifty years ago, has been moved six times in its life and is still thrifty, and was fairly loaded this season with heavy clusters of beautiful blossoms. We think this is rather a record in this line. • We took occasion the other evening as we usually do, to take a short au­ tomobile ride about our city, some­ times going into, the country and oth­ er times just about town. This time it was just about town, admiring the many well-kept lawns and residences, the pretty flower beds, fine loqking gardens, and well, just having a good time. The trip this tin* led out North Main .street and back around the tourist park, and among the things mentioned before was added the sight of weeds, not.jone, but a block long of them, as high as the au­ tomobile, growing along the street on the west side of the tourist park, rap­ idly maturing and soon to go to seed, and to re-sow themselves into a more bountiful crop for next season—pro­ vided. It seems that this should be looked after. You know one sees curious things sometimes these days just by looking out the window. We saw a rather curious thing, the other day, guess it was Sunday, something that had probably happened many times before as we understand that it is a regular daily occurrence, but why stall long­ er? This was a horse being led down our street, nothing unusual in that you will say. but the leading rope was attached to the rear of an automobile, and that is something again. The vendor of your morning lacteal fluid can explain how it is done. Not only should this state, and ev­ ery state in our opinion, collect taxes from every person who has reached the age of twenty-one and who enjoys the benefits of government but it should be so arranged that the entire amount of the tax does not fall due at one time.

One Michigan shepherd found that dipping his flock to kill ticks and lice increased the average production of wool from 4.8 pounds per sheep to 7.5 pounds, according to figures sent to the animal husbandry department at Michigan State college. Other owners of sheep have become convinced of the effectiveness of this method of increasing the profits from their flocks and now cooperate to build dipping vats which can be used by all the farmers living in the com­ munity. More than 800 sheep have been dipped in the vat built at the Carr settlement in Lake county. The agi icultural engineering department of the college will furnish plans for building these tanks. The dip kills the insects by contact and the entire body of the sheep must be covered with the dipping solution. To accomplish this, the animal is completely immersed in the tank while its mouth is held shut by the man who is doing the dipping. Ap­ proximately two quarts of solution is absorbed by the fleece of each sheep. Sheep which have ragged fleeces with strings of wool hanging from it ot patches of fleece with second growth wool usually are infested with one or more types of the external parasites, and the poor fleece is caus­ ed by the efforts of the animal to rid itself of these tormentors. Dipping in solutions of coal-tar, nicotine sul­ phate, or arsenicals is the only prac­ tical way of controlling lice and mites on sheep. Army Worm Is Found In Michigan County The Spread Of This Insect Can Be Stopped By Plowing Furrows Around Infested Areas. The last insect to declare war against Michigan farmers in 1931 has begun its invasion in Ingham county Bind, according to the entomology de­ partment at Michigan State collge, this cut-worm, commonly called the army worm, is capable of seriously injuring crops if immediate measures are not taken^to prevent its spread. The army worm last appeared in the state 10 years ago and, at that time, damaged oat and corn fields. The college entomologists say that the worm is undoubtedly present in different sections of Michigan and farmers are advised to immediately examine their oat -elds to find out if the worms are working in the low spots. The examination should be made at as the worms do their feeding The lowest thing in the world is night at time. If the worms are found, the ring around a Scotchman’s bath- thethat farmer should prepare to confine tup when the water is on a meter.

OCCASIONALLY SOMEONE COMES IN THE STORE AND ASKS. “DO YOU SELL PAINT?” One of the first things you see on entering the store is a 50-foot stretch of paint in gallon and half-gallon cans. On the opposite side of the store is a ease of interior paints. This case is 10 feet long, 10 feet high and with 10 shelves containing paint in quarts, pints and half-pints. Also auto paint, stains, oik, floor and porch paint, lacquers. Far­ ther back is barn paint, white lead, oils, turpen­ tine, dryers, shellacs, varnishes—in fact, every­ thing in paint that you can use. Also brushes of all styles and prices. This should answer the question. If not, we will say “We do sell paint, and lots of ft, too.” The quality is the best we can buy. The price is as low as pure quality paint can be sold.

The Lesson-Sermon also Includes the following passage from the Chris­ tian Science textbook. "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy: “Our heavenly Father, divine Love, demands that all men should follow the example of our Master and his apostles and not mere­ ly worship his personality. It is sad that the phrase, ’divine service,’ has come so generally to mean public wor­ ship instead of daily needs." (p. 40). OBITTABY. Mrs. Clinton Carpenter. Olive Day was born February 5. 1867, on a farm near Roseville. Illi­ nois, and departed this life at her home about five miles northwest of Nashville, Michigan, on Saturday, June 20, 1931. On July 24, 2901, she was united in marriage with Clinton S. Carpenter of Yorkville, Illinois. One son. Wilbur Claire, together with the husband, three brothers and one sister, are left to mourn the loss of a loving, devoted and faithful mother^wife and sister. From the time of her conversion in early womanhood. Mrs. Carpenter liv­ ed a* most active and useful Christian life. All who knew her were ac­ quainted with a Christian character of refinement and culture. She became a Baptist many years ago, and at the time of her death, was a member of the Nashville Baptist church. The family came to Michigan in 1908. settling on a farm near Way land. About six years later they mov­ ed to a farm which they had bought about five miles northeast of Nash­ ville. With the exception of about five years spent in the vicinity of Battle Creek, Mrs. Carpenter resided in and near Nashville during the remainder of her earthly Ufi. The funeral was held at her late home near Castleton Center on Tues­ day, June 23, with burial in the Car­ penter family lot in Elmwood ceme­ tery, Wayland, Mich. , Her pastor. Rev. C. L. Owens, officiated, and was assisted by Miss Ada E. Cargo, aaeo-* date pastor, and Rev. 8. J. .McCarrell of Battle Creek-anti Rev. Wm. Barkalow of Stanton, former pastors. Rev. and Mrs. Barkalow sang two ap­ propriate hymns during the service, which was attended by a large num­ ber of her many friends from other communities in which the deceased had lived since the family came to Michigan, as well as from the immed­ iate neighborhood. Rev. Owens voiced the following beautiful and fitting tribute: "A faith­ ful and loving wife ,a devoted and in­ dulgent mother, she made her home dear beyond price to her husband and son, and the center of great and pleasurable appeal to those outside the family circle who came to know Its kindly hospitality. When a woman of her character is removed from our midst, she leaves vacant a place none other can ever fully fill. But let ua not grieve as tho*e who have no con­ solation. for we know that our tempo­ rary loos is her eternal gain, and that we shall find her again in that hie— ed country where ’hoec reunited nev­ er more shall be separated.” � https://barrycountyhistoryportal.org/files/original/20/613/NashvilleNews_1931-07-16.pdf ca9b819671fd842f2aaef5ffc4c78cb1 PDF Text Text The JSagtmllE 3tttwf. COMING EVENTS— Homecoming, July 30-31Aug. 1.—Three big days of entertainment. VOLUME LVm Five Cents the Copy The Nashville News, Your Home Paper, Observes Fifty-eighth Anniversary Today On October 3. 1873, there was is­ sued with .much flourish and the aid of a Washington hand press, of whose workings Prank Purchls can inform you. a newspaper, The Nashville News, by Orno Strong, who had not long before disposed of his newspaper interests at Lawton. With Nashville appealing to him as a promising news­ paper field and after a visit here and contact with some of the prominent men of the town, he shipped a print­ ing outfit to Nashville and then wait­ ed and waited for the outfit to appear. We quote from the initial issue of The News Mr. Strong’s own state­ ment in this regard, andkere is is: How It Wait Done. •'Now that Nashville has a ‘mouthpiece’ the inquiry natural­ ly arises, ‘How did it come about?’ About five weeks ago we set foot in Nashville for the first time and after a few hours’ talk with some of the leading men, were convinced that this place, with a little effort, was destined to become one of Mich­ igan’s most thriving villages, and the following week had ship­ ped enough material to carry on a first class newspaper and job printing office. But we had bad luck in gettlpg our material cr Nashville would have had a news­ paper ere this. The material ev­ idently wanted to take a little trip and it seems that the rail­ road employees were willing to have it, and among the places it visited was Detroit, and rested there four days. It is only 134 miles from where it was shipped but it took 15 days to accomplish the trip.” It was a four page seven-column paper, with a goodly amount of adver­ tising by the enterprising merchants and business and professional men. as witness this list: E. R. White, light and heavy groceries; Wolcott & Holler, hardware; W. A. Aylsworth, dry goods and clothing; G. A. Tru­ man. fall and winter goods; Hal­ bert & Co., drugs; Downing & Al­ len. summer goods; Hardy & Ainsworth, elevator, buyers of wheat, etc., and dealers in shin­ gles, etc.: Conrad Clever, Central House, groceries, etc.; Holler. Wolverine Mills; Wheeler & Chip­ man. Nashville creamery; D. C. Griffith, groceries, drugs, school books: Jacob Lentz, furniture manufactory; Roberts & Smith, meat market; Smith & Putnam, ■ hardware: Chas. W. Demaray, jeweler and optician: Wm. Jones, dentist; Mra. L. O. Crocker, mil­ linery and fancy goods; Capt. McCormick, Nashville House; W. H. Beadle, Union House; E. Par­ ady, manufacturer of boots and shoes; S. Liebhauser. tailor; Hen­ ry Wood, justice of peace; Clem­ ent Smith, attorney and coun­ sellor at law; H. C. Appelman, milliner and dressmaker: Simp­ son & Webster, blacksmiths; H. A. Barber. M. D.; Dr. Wickham; M. E. Church; Christian Church; Nashville Lodge F. A A. M. That he visualized good things for Nashville is evidenced by this state­ ment from this first issue: "Few places offer better advan­ tages to men of capital than our thriving and enterprising village. Situated on a first class railroad, the Grand River Valley, 12 miles from Hastings and 15 from Char­ lotte, possessing a fine water power, surrounded by a vast amount of first class timber, the best of agricultural lands and the most enterprising and industrious farmers, we only need a few more* men of enterprise and capital to place our town among the first class villages of the peninsular state." That the school question is nothing new to Nashville folks is indicated by Mr. Strong, who noted, the crowded condition of the then school in the fol­ lowing language: "Nashville surely needs one thing and that is a larger school house. We are informed that the scholars are literally packed in every conceivable place, and a great many applicants have been turned away because there was no room for them. The school board have talked upon this mat­ ter, and thiak<df renting another building. We "hope they will not be content long with renting, but will soon build such a handsome temple of learning as will make all the Nashville folks’ hearts swell with pride.” And then witness the "welcome” voiced by The Hastings Banner and the "success" visioned by It: "Report says that another ef­ fort is to be made to establish a newspaper tn Nashville, tn this county, thia time by a gentleman from Lawton. We trust for the sake of the Would-Be-Publisher, the report is not true, for the in­ vestment cannot be otherwise than a financial disaster.’—Hast­ ings Banner. And from Orno Strong’s reply vis­ ion his courage' "Just so! No doubt but that The Banner would be glad to see the effort prove a failure, for it is wen known that the few hun­ dred dollars that have gone each year to Hastings for job work, advertising, etc., will now remain at home. It seems incredible however that a newspaper editor, an educator of the people, who is expected to advance every enter­ prise that will build up and for­ ward Ma section, should be the first to cast a stone at this kind of an institution. But the Banner will be disappointed. We shall go forward and give the people of this section a good local paper, the Banner to the contrary not­ withstanding.” In the style of that day there was no local news on the first page, but there was a story, "The Poacher’s Story,” and two poems, "A Holiday” and "Afeared of a Giri,” "current items” and “varieties” and three col­ umns about the financial panic, for this paper was "born" during the pan­ ic of 1873; the first part of the story about the situation in New York and the east, another in the west and a small paragraph on the condition abroad. The paper was then publish­ ed on Friday, evidence the proprietor was not overly superstitious, and his motto was "Progression, Not Retro­ grading.” And this has been the motto always’of The News though it does not gre^t one on the printed page. And now we turn to page 2 and reproduce for you his salutatory for this was his "commencement” in the new newspaper field here: Salutatory. ’Today The News appears for the first time, as a candidate for pub­ lic favor. Past experience has taught us that when a man presents'any new enterprise to the public, par­ ticularly a newspaper, it is apt to be severely criticized, and some persons are apt to pass an opin­ ion—and this opinion is almost as liable to be incorrect as other­ wise. Having this fact in view, and believing the public do not suppose a country newspaper to be operated by any Supreme Be­ ing. we have endeavored to pre­ pare the News in such a manner that it shall prove acceptable to the people of Barry county and especially to those interested in this locality. Inspect this number. In it you will find not only the home and state news, but items of interest from different parts of the whole world, gathered, con­ densed and prepared for its col­ umns. The local department, especial­ ly, shall receive a good share of our attention. In it we shall speak of the things that more di­ rectly concern the good of our town, and shall record all local transactions, such as births, deaths, marriages, and all other misfortunes to which we are more or less exposed, and which every good citizen likes to see in print. In it we shall talk of the joyt, sorrows and expectations of our now new, but enterprising little village. We shall weep with those that weep and rejoice with them that rejoice; in fact, shall hold our­ selves jAepared to carry said weeping and rejoicing to any ex­ tent required. We will talk up the merits of the village, until they will not on­ ly be known to the people of this vicinity, but will be caught up and reflected, like the light of morning, over the whole land, and will make Nashville so plain and well known to the outside world that “a wayfaring man, though a fool, will know her ways and walk therein.” We have selected Nashville as the base of our operations, be­ cause we think her inhabitants have the vim and energy to push her ahead and make a flourishing city, on the banks of the "Thorn­ apple,” where now one thousand people call their home. We shall do our share to bring about the desirable result. We have “stuck out stakes" and "hung our banner on the out­ er walls” of the building opposite the postoffice and there you can find us early and late. Give or send your names to The News, and with each name 31.50. Do not forget the last part of our re­ quest for without the great dollar and a half, omnipotent, we could not breathe or live, and should be annihilated in the twinkling of an eye. With our best bow, after hav­ ing spoken our little piece, we submit The News to the public.” His next editorial was on "Nash­ ville" with considerable interesting data in connection, but a lower cor­ ner of the first and second page of this first News has been torn loose and lost and with It went part of the article about Nashville. To account for the difference in monthly date of the issuance of the first Nashville News, Volume L No. 1. Oct. 3. 1873, and the date of the first number in Volume LVUI, July 16, 1981. the publication year is 83 weeks of seven days a week, leaving always an extra day in the year and in leap year two of them, which in the 57 in­ tervening years, have moved the change in volume to a month several times removed, October to July, mov­ ing it ahead in the calendar year. I And so we come to the present, ov­ er years of development for Nash­ ville and vicinity since Orno Strong penned the lines of his salutatory. His pen is stilled but the work he started goes forward, characterized by the same high motives all through its 57 years, though the ownership has changed thrice in that time. And in­ to the new year it goes with high re­ solves backing it and wishes that it may emerge at the end of the next 52-week period, stin the child of our dreams.

DATES, JULY 30-31, AUG. 1 STORY IS PROVED FALSE DEVELOPMENTS THUS REDUCTION AMOUNTS FAR ON SMALL SCALE TO ABOUT $17,000,000 Man Was Held In Jail In Chicago And Thousands Of Our Former Home Counties Will Get More But Must Start Soon Taking Over Township Roads—Start Early. A reduction of about >7,000,000 in the state’s highway construction next year compared with that of 1930 will be necessary because of record expen­ ditures this year, Grover C. Dillman, highway commissioner, has informed Gov. Wilber M. Brucker, according to Lansing dispatches. The cut will be caused by reductions in the federal aid appropriations which were available this year; by changes in the highway laws which require distribution of more funds to the counties; and by over-expenditure of funds this year. Of the 1932 figure, more than $3,­ 000,000 will be spent in a street wid­ ening program in Detroit and another $3,000,000 already has been placed under contract, the work to be start­ ed next year. Thus, Dillman said, there remains but $15,000,000 in construction which the state can undertake in addition to that already designated for next year. After receiving this information, the committee and Gov. Brucker stated that an additional $10,000,000 will be placed under contract before next January. In arriving at his figures, Dillman pointed out that fixed charges which must be met by the department next year will total $17,667,184, this sum representing such items as the cost of administrating the department, allot­ ments of funds to counties, the cost of consolidating township and county roads under the McNltt bill and bond interest and retirement To this must be added the $4,000,­ 000 which the state will owe the coun­ ties out of the 1930 weight and gas tax collections which cannot be paid this year; $1,000,000 In 1930 main­ tenance costs which will be accumu­ lated by January; and $388,266 in several construction projects which have been completed this year with money furnished by private individ­ uals with the understanding that the state will make repayment next year. Already the board, Dillman said, has pledged and contracted for work amounting to $5,150,000 for 1932 and another $3,000,000 must be added for work which will be completed this year, but which cannot be paid for un­ til 1932 receipts are collected. The total-encumbrances, thus, are $31,205,000 and the total anticipated revenue next year, including federal aid, will be $46,500,00, leaving a total unencumbered construction fund of slightly more than $15,000,000. Dillman explained the large con­ struction program this year by re­ minding the committee members of the extra federal aid -funds made available to relieve unemployment last winter. He said that not only would this be reduced to normal in 1932, but that the state will be requir­ ed to pay back a portion of the fed­ eral loan which It accepted late In 1930. Raisin Brook Co. Is Now Bankrupt Rabbit Company Has Been In Bad Way For Some Time—Liabilities Reach 8296,889. According to dispatches from De­ troit, the Raisin Brook Packing com­ pany of Dundee filed a voluntary peti­ tion of bankruptcy in federal court on Wednesday of last week, listing assets of $91 218.09 and liabilities of $296,­ 889.93. The petition was referred to Paul H. King, referee in bankruptcy. E. H. Greer, secretary of the company, said the decision to file bankruptcy papers was taken by the board of di­ rectors at a meeting held Tuesday. The Raisin Brook Co.'s business de­ veloped rapidly, its operations becom­ ing state wide, and operating quite extensively in Barry county. There was consequent plant expansion. And then something happened to the sys­ tem in operation, and the business slowed up and continued to do so, and bankruptcy seemed the only solution. ♦------------------------------ Pays To Use The News Want Column Tb, New*-Dear Sir: We edvertle•d our Ford coupe in your paper last week and had a buyer for It Thursday night Many thanks.

Woman In Police Toils At Niles, Mich. Considerable speculation was en­ gaged in locally last Friday with the appearance of a "Front Page” story in Chicago's metropolitan dailies of the reported kidnapping there of “Mrs. Marie Homer,” who was said to be hitch-hiking with her husband, "James Homer,” from Cheyenne. Wy­ oming, to his parental home in Nash­ ville, to which attention was called by radio announcement and by Mich­ igan city dailies receiving Associated Press or United Press dispatches re­ garding the kidnapping and desiring the local connection to complete their story. And then a little later came requests from police officials as what had seemed a Chinese puzzle was solved, when the kidnapping was found to be a hoax and the names as­ sumed. No one had been able to recall any family by the name of Homer residing hereabouts, now or previously, but when the real name came out as Otto Deeds, he was readily identified as a son of Lester Deeds, farmer, residing one mile west of “Three Bridges,” up­ on whom he had brought sorrow by his wrong doing before he left this vicinity several years ago. The kidnapping story related by Deeds, posing as “James Homer,” as it appeared in Friday’s Chicago Ex­ aminer under the head. “Kidnaps Girl Hiker from Husband on Outer Drive.” was as follows: “While scores of cars were passing, a 19-year-old wife was kidnapped in view of her husband by a motorist on the Outer Drive near Thirty-ninth street yesterday. The victim is Mrs. Marie Homer, an expectant mother. With her husband, James, 28, she was hitch-hiking from Cheyenne, Wy­ oming, to his parents’ home at Nash­ ville. Mich. They were walking In the drive, hoping for a ’Tift” when rain began to fall. Homer left his wife for an Instant and climbed down the embankment to find a shelter. About the same time, according to his story to a Hyde Park police, a gray touring car with one man in it stopped alongside his wife. Thinking that meant a “lift,” Homer started to rejoin her. “When I was about 20 yards away,” he said, “the man slipped from behind the wheel, grabbed Marie by the wrist and pulled her into the car. She screamed, but the man started the car. He was 200 yards down the drive when I got on the roadway. I ran out and tried to get other motor­ ists to stop and take me after them, but none would.” Homer was unable to get the license number of the kidnapper's car, nor could he supply a good description of the man. His wife, he said, is at­ tractive, weighs about 107 pounds and Is five feet seven inches tall. She was wearing a green hat, flowered dress and white shoes. His wife, Homer said, is the daugh­ ter of a Pentecostal minister at Chey­ enne. He went out there five years ago, and they were married a ; ear later.” And then came the denoument which followed, as the “wife,” telling her story at Niles, confessed as the of­ ficers became skeptical, the real facts and the pair were held, one in Chica­ go and one in Niles, while police checked up their record. This story as told in dispatches from Niles to the Grand Rapids Her­ ald appeared under the head of "Bar­ ry Co. Man Is Taken in Chicago in Kidnapping Hoax. Otto Dietz, 28. Related Tale of “Wife" Being Stolen: Woman Held at Niles," and read as follows: "Mrs. Marie Snyder. 20. alias Mrs. Marie Homer, who was alleged to have been kidnapped in Chicago last night, is being held in the Niles jail pending word from Denver, CoL, of­ ficials. and her traveling companion, Otto Dietz, 29, alias James Homer, of Nashville, Mich., is held in Chicago for investigation, while police of sev­ eral cities are checking on the rec­ ords of the pair. Dietz approached Chicago police last night with a wierd tale of how his “wife” was kid­ napped from his side on the outer Lake Michigan drive by a lone motor­ ist, v, hile they were hitch-hiking from Cheyenne, Wyo., to the home of Dietz’s parents in Barry county. "Mra. Snyder today walked into the NUm police station and asserted she was the kidnapped “wife," but that she had escaped from her abductors when they stopped at an Indianapolis gasoline station. She asserted the driver of the car was joined by two companions in Chicago's south side and the f sur of them made the trip to TnrUnna “Because the woman, who is an ex­ pectant mother, hadn’t approached the Indianapolis police with her story, but waited until she hitch-hiked to Niles, local authorities grew skepti­ cal of her tale and subjected her to a severe grilling, during which she broke down and admitted the kidnap­ ping wm a hoax. “The “facts" as Mrs. Snyder relat­ ed them,* are that she is on parole from Denver, where she had served part of a term for delinquency, hav­ ing been released last April. Dietz, she told officers, was serving a term in the Cannon Qty prison, from which hs was released tn May.

He wm engaged in swinging a wire around a tree limb in the yard of the Nashville schools when a wire struck him in the eye, cutting the ball. Dr. E. T. Morris attended the immediate irjury and Dr. Wenzel, I Ansi ng eye specialist, who took the case, advised Mr. Smith Tuesday that he would not lose the sight of the eye. The injury caused a condition something like a cataract, and as Lu that case there is something to remove when it is ready. It wm good news to Mr. Smith that the sight of the eye would not be lost and Is equally good news to his frisods. illness dated from Monday, when she apparently suffered from a throat infection.

Retort Business Bet­ ter Than In 1930 Resort Association Manager Sees A Mnek Larger Advance In July Also. June business in western Michigan summer resorts wm ahead of 1930; and present prospects are excellent for July. That, at least. Is the report of Hugh J. Gray, manager of the Michigan Tourist A Resort associa­ tion. Mr. Gray personally has visited a number of resorts, and others have reported through the association’s field agent. Frank Blakely. At many places all cottages are taken for the summer. Some hotels are filled to capacity. The July fourth week end was a record breaker in some parts of west­ ern Michigan, according to Mr. Gray. Thousands of pleasure seekers came from Illinois. Ohio and Indiana. The resort association manager al­ so declares that the information booth in Campau Square is receiving a high­ er daily average number of queries than in other years. Many are from residents of Grand Rapids, seeking facts concerning northern resorts, buL out-of-state visitors predominate. �Bit ghsfcrilk fews. 1873 ■ County Agent News through the mails as second class matter.

THURSDAY, JULY 16,1931 • Ixflnite In the advertisements of Beeourcee banks one often sees cer­ tain statements as to the amount of their capital, interest, and resources. The larger the amount, the stronger the bank. Sometimes, however, through wrong thinking and acting of some kind, a bank must close, causing the investors to lose their material possessions. Figuratively . speaking, there is a bank upon which each one of God’s children can always draw, and where nothing is ever lost. That bank is in­ finite Mind, divine Principle, Love. On page 60 of "Scienob and Health with Key to the Scriptures" Mary Baker Eddy has written. “Soul has infinite resources with which to bless man­ kind, and happiness would be more readily attained and would be more secure in our keeping, if sought in Soul.” So, in infinite Mind there are resources unlimited. How readily, how willingly, should we go to this in­ finite source for our sustenance and supply, where we shall be abundantly satisfied! Each one of us has a right by reflection, to draw upon these in­ finite resources, which never fail. The doors of these divine resources never close, for God, Love, good, is ever present and ever available. We have access to infinite Mind by keep­ ing our thinking clear and pure. If we allow resentment, hurt feelings, jealousy, hatred, sensuality, or any of the other forms of wrong thinking, to cloud our pathway on our journey from sense to Soul, we cannot find our way to divine Love. If we are to make any progress, our thinking must be cleared, and the debris of false be lief destroyed. Neither should we, by accepting the world's material opin­ ion, stumble over the obstacles of de­ pression, lack, bad business, enmity, or competition. In the first verse of a well-loved hymn we read, ‘Make channels for the streams of love, Where they may broadly run; And love has overflowing streams, To fill them every one.” Whether we give or receive, we are channels for the expression of God's goodness and abundance. And what shall we give or receive in order to become a channel for good? Shall it be money, material pleasures or pos­ sessions, when these are so easily lost or destroyed? Rather, let it be the fruits of the Spirit, a friendly smile, a helping hand, an encouraging word, which can be bought without money and without price, and which will bear fruit and multiply. The more we invest in consecration, gratitude, and good deeds, the more interest we receive in joy, harmony, supply, sod spiritual growth, which nothing can take from us. Many Bible characters proved that they had access to this source of in­ mute finite supply, supply. utmiei Daniel proved une the omnipotence of God, good, in his reallzai tion of protection in the lions' den When the widow of Zarephath was obedient, she and Elijah "and her house, did eat many days" from a scant visible supply of meal and oil. Likewise, Moses smote the rock and water came out abundantly. And our great Way-shower, Christ Jesus, fed the five thousand when only a few loaves and fishes were apparent to mortal sight. He also brought health, purity, and life- to view where sick­ ness, sin. and death seemed present We are taught in the Bible that God made everything, and, "behold, it was very good." Newness is ever appear­ ing, and Mra. Eddy has written pearing, and must ever continue to appear from the nature of its inex­ haustible source/' Wherever we are, or in whatever position we may find ourselves, we can always have access, through spir­ itual consciousness, to infinite Mind, in which are abundance of peace and fullness of joy. And Mind's resources are spiritual ideas, which “neither moth nor rust doth corrupt” Mrs. Eddy writes on page 307 in "Miscel­ laneous Writings,’’ “God gives you His spiritual ideas, and in turn, they give you daily supplies. Never ask for to­ morrow: it is enough that divine Love is an ever-present help; and if you wait, never doubting, you will have all you need every moment.”—The Chris­ tian Science Monitor.

Safety And The children’s camp has Health become something of an A m e r i can institution. Camps of various sorts, public and private, are the annual vacation sports for thousands of children, and as such play an important part in the development of the next generation. A well equipped, well-operated camp can be a strong influence for good health and citizenship; by the same token, an overly-commercialized care­ lessly run camp may be a genuine menace. In order to make a contribution to the solution of the problems of health and safety in camps, the National Bu­ reau of Casualty and Surety Under­ writers financed J. Edward Sanders, Associate Professor of Education at Colgate University, to make a thor­ ough study of the camps. Under the title, “Safety and Health in Organiz­ ed Camps,” the National Bureau has now published Mr. Sanders’ summary of his two-year survey of 617 summer camps. It is, of prime interest to parents and educators and all who take an Interest in child health and safety. It gives information on present state of camps and suggests means of improvement. The book shows that camps, on the whole, are both safe and healthful places for children. Good camps have medical attendants close at hand, and sanitary conditions are of a superior order. There are, however, camps which are unfortunate exceptions to the rule. It is here that the parent must make himself felt by a thorough going investigation of any camp to which he considers sending his chil­ dren. From the standpoint of national health and safety this study of sum­ mer camps is an illustration of hu­ manitarian work only secondary in importance to the National Bureau's successful campaign to prevent acci­ dents to school children. newer methods of canning. Methods of canning meat and vegetables will also be discussed. Products will be packed in both glass and tin jars and the processing will be done with a pressure cooker. Each person or group of people at­ tending should bring their lunch with them. All women Interested in canning chicken to be marketed by the Mich­ igan Home Products association should be sure to attend the meeting and receive instructions for same. Thi^ meeting is open to any 4-H club girl, woman or man of Barry county who is interested and a large attendance is expected. flon Chapter, No. 171, R. A. M. wbo tried Fred M.

On entering either from the north or south, you come onto the pavement near the city limits, the pavement is clean and well-kept, the boulevards and lawns on either side cleanly mowed, the residences, ar­ rangement of flower beds and lawn decorations and the fine gardens are most pleasing to the eye.

Regular preaching service Sunday morning at 10:80 o'clock. The sub­ ject of the sermon is “The Assurance of aFlth.” Is it true that one of the reasons why there is so much rest­ lessness and confusion in the realm of religion is the lack of confidence and assurity on the part of believers? So many people are preaching and living their doubts and not enough are em­ phasizing their beliefs. What are the great truths upon which you will build your life? The mid-week service will be taken up during the rest of July and Au­ gust. The pastor will be in and out during these weeks and it is difficult to get word to all the folks when he is here, especially when they are not apt to be on hand every Sunday morn­ ing during the summer months. We will resume these meetings when school opens in the fall. A Post-Institute Rally will be held by the young people of Grand Rapids District this coming Saturday after­ noon, July 18, at Amin Park, seven miles west of Grand Rapids on M-50. The purpose of this meeting is to bring as much of the Albion Institute to the Epworth League as possible. There will be lots of fun and frolic for those who would like to attend. Hinman Sackett will represent our Epworth League, giving his impres­ sions of the Institute. All young peo­ ple here who wish to go, kindly get in touch with the pastor.

Bearings or “NO-OIL-EM.” Bearings, running-in-oil, has great efficiency as a pumping power in 8 to 10 mile winds. As you know, any mill will pump water in high winds, but the windmill that will provide water in the lighter breezes is the one you want. The Star can do this because it has a scientifically designed wheel. The fans have just the right curva­ ture and are properly spaced. Bearings running in oil, with a flood of oil for cross­ head, guides and pitmans, reduce friction to the minimum. The better features of the old Star, two gears, two pinions and two pitmans, are retained. This gives a direct center lift to pump rod and equalizes the load on working parts of the mill. Star is pivoted on ball-bearing turn table. Come in and see thia new Star. You erected on your place will prov. ueed in the windmill line, titled on any tower. C. L GLASGOW Going to Detroit?

The regular morning worship will be held Sunday at 10:30 o'clock. All those who are looking for a church home are welcome to our fellowship. The theme for the sermon is' to be "Demanding the Impossible." Some­ times the signs by which we seek to strengthen our trust and faith are hot possible. If the thing which we ask for would come to pass it would undermine the very foundations of our Christian conceptions. This is most certainly true in the incident that forms the basis for this sermon. Our Church school follows immed­ iately after the morning worship, at 11:45 o’clock. You will find a class if you desire to come. Let us not un­ dervalue the importance of the Sun­ day school, in the summertime. It Is strange why so many folks seem to think that the summer is a time when they can afford to take a spiritual holiday. S. J. Francis, Pastor. Baptist Bulletin. The Bible study lesson for the mid­ week service at the church tonight (Thursday, will be found in the 6th chapter of Revelation.

(tea. 28:17). The Lesson-Sermon also includes the following passage from the Chris­ tian Science textbook. "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy: “Troth, Life, and Love are the only legitimate and eternal demands on man, and they are spiritual lawgivers, enforcing obed­ ience through divine statutes.” p. 184.

Former Nashville Through the courtesy of a son of a Nashville pioneer who took up his residence here when there was just one house on what is now Main street, those interested in Homecoming time relics of olden days will find consider­ able enjoyment in viewing a picture of Nashville as it appeared in 1870—or 61 years ago— in the window of EL L. Kane's drug store. The picture was taken by some old time photographer of Nashville from the foot of what is known as "Stand­ pipe Hill," and came into the posses­ sion of the aforementioned pioneer, who was Richard Martin Graham, about 35 years ago. Mr. Graham died and the picture is now the property of his son. Martin Richard Graham. When this picture was taken, the Methodists had only a frame church, but on the same site on which the brick church was in course of erec­ tion 50 years ago, as related in the Ancient History columns in The News, and to which has since been added “The Community House.

The street at that end of Main street angled off to the left, there was no mill then on the Lass mill site, and the bridge spanned the narrow part of the river, where a point of land ran out into the river for some distance and above the present dam. The frame house of old days, which preceded the Alfred Buxton brick house, corner Reed and State streets, was moved and is the present home of Miss Florence Grohe, Grand Rapids teacher, who comes here at vacation periods. The one lone house referred to as the only dwelling on Main street when Mr. Graham Sr. took up his residence here, was located where Rol Sanders now resides, or at the location of the third house south from Nelson Appelman's, the three-story brick house, corner of Reed and Main streets. After crossing Thornapple on the old wooden bridge, the road passed to the west of what is now "Putnam Park." This old picture is dim, but will prove none the less interesting, par­ ticularly to those who know consid­ erable of the early history of Nash­ ville. Cong. B. L.

Tents have gone up by magic, or efficiency gained by long practice, for living quarters, and for the big entertain­ ment of the Jack Champion Ensem­ ble, and the concessions of various kinds by outsiders and local folks were rapidly whipped into shape, the sound of the hammers beating quite a steady staccato through Tuesday and Wednesday to have everything tn readiness for the three days’ Home­ coming event of Thursday, Friday and Saturday, July 30-31 and Aug. Adults and children alike, not other­ wise occupied, and those whose work lay in the "occupied" area, watched in a fascinated way as the "enter­ tainment city” was fashic ned by the experts. And as they proceeded with the work, steps were being taken to close the area to motor vehicles, traffic during the Festival to leave Main street on the north at Washington street, traveling by State street to Church street, making three closed blocks on Main street, Maple street being also closed between Main and State streets. With the state high­ way department giving consent to use of M-79 for Festival purposes, state police will be detailed here to aid in making this a perfectly law­ abiding and clean Festival.

There are a lot of folks in our little city this week who formerly called Nashville home, and well, maybe 'way down in their hearts, they still call It "home” and are always glad to come back even tho for a brief time during Homecoming. But they are here and are looking about, and we’ve heard several of them remark “that Nash­ ville had changed and wasn’t much like it used to be." Now that Is prob­ ably true. The changes in even so short a time as a year, in the town and the people, even tho the people are the same people year after year, no newcomers, often make home seem like any place but home, and Nash­ ville is no exception. There isn’t any particular claim that our city has progressed very much in the past year, although there have been sever­ al opportunities offered for progres­ sion, but there are those present that still have hopes. We contend that there isn't a better town the size of Nashville lying out-doors, we have all the modern improvements of a city many time* its population (and we’ll have more), our retail stores present an appearance equal if not superior to many in larger towns, the merchan­ dise is well selected and displayed, and we know absolutely that the pric­ es are just. The simple fact that our banking institution was forced to close its doors temporarily is no dis­ credit to our city. There were num­ erous bank failures in Oakland coun­ ty within a year, one of the largest bank? in Flint failed to open Satur­ day. and Ypsilanti is experiencing the same proposition. This merely cur­ tails business for a short period until adjustments can be made. To lose faith in Nashville because of this cir­ cumstance would be, well, sort of traitorous.

With sirens screaming, the apparatus arrived at the scene, but there was no fire. James was sitting on a curb, nursing a mul­ titude of knife wounds. "Did you turn in a false alarm?" asked Battal­ ion Chief Jerry Falvey. "Yes, sir," replied James. “I turned in the alarm but it wasn’t a false one.

Farmers Day Talks President Shaw, -Director Gardner, And Professor Rather Address Audience, Friday, July 31. Speakers on the afternoon program. Farmers Day, Friday, July 31, will be President Robert S. Shaw. Director Victor R. Gardner, and Professor! Howard C. Rather, who will discuss the part which the college has in the agricultural problems of Michigan. President Shaw has had a part in the management of the college, through good times and bad. for the past three decades: and. in that time has seen many changes in the prac­ tices used on Michigan farms. While President Shaw was dean of the ag­ ricultural division and during the times he has directed the policies of the entire institution, he has demand­ ed that the needs of the farmers of the state should always be considered in all programs of work laid out for the agricultural departments. Director Gardner has charge of the research work of the State Experi­ ment Station and has the responsibility of deciding what problems of ag­ riculture shall be studied first. He is head of the department of horticul­ ture and has talked before many farm groups. Professor Rather is well known throughout the state through his work as a specialist in farm crops from which he resigned to become head of the farm crops department. Music for the ' afternoon program will be furnished by the Boys’ Voca­ tional School band and by the choir which wins first place in the choir singing contest. A group of 4-H club members will present an entertain­ ment feature, and there will be one contest in which the contestants are expected to furnish plenty of amuse­ ment for the audience. —Bob Rose, professional marks­ man, entertained Portland folks, । trimmed the ashes from Wm.

Her back used to be where a wo­ man was supposed to put all her clothes. Now it is the place she does­ n't put any when she really gets dressed up.

The big annual Homecoming, look­ ed forward to for weeks by the peo­ ple of Nashville and those who for­ merly called this city "home," has again come and gone. Thousands of people from all over this section of the state gathered for a program of sports, contests, street shows and good music. Local talen for the most part was engaged for the sports and contests, the boxing bouts, water sports, pet parade and other features playing a most prominent part in the entertainment. Main street for three blocks had been posted for detours by the state and there were state police on duty to see that good order was maintain­ ed and that traffic laws'were observ­ ed. There was very little trouble ev­ en during the closing hours on Satur­ day night. Champion Show Is Flnfc. The Jack Champion Ensemble was the main feature show of the week, the stage being set up on Maple street and the tents and living quar­ ters occupying adjacent boulevards and lawns. The gay colors of the tents and stage fittings, orange and black, lent an air of real carnival spirit. The show itself, for which spectators were asked an admission, was well worth seeing. There were nineteen acts including a free act of aerial balancing and trapeze work. The members of this company were all artists and gave the best enter­ tainment of this sort seen in Nash­ ville for some time. The orchestra carried was composed of girls and was of a high class. The boxing bouts were held on this stage during the afternoon and evenings, giving ev­ eryone a good view of the contests. The inevitable merry-go-round and Feris wheel were here in their glory and the big wheel presented a specta­ cle evenings, trimmed with colored lights. Midway was a real midway with its innumerable games of chance, lunch stands and little side shows.

Works, 51, and D’Arcy L. Wernette, 42, vice president and secretary of the surveying firm of Williams & Works. The train was Grand Rapids bound and was said to have been travelling about 50 miles an hour. The train was brought to a stop a half mile west of the accident, near the Grand Rapids airport. The pilot of the engine was bent. A tire and rim were caught under the ec­ centrics of the engine and had to be removed before the train could be backed to the scene. Works was killed outright after having been thrown 125 feet by the impact. Wernette, who was hurled about 100 feet, was still alive when he was reached a few minutes after the crash by a nearby farmer, but he died a moment later. The automobile was demolished. Parts of the automobile were found along the railroad right-of-way 150 feet from the crossing, and the main wreck of the vehicle was hurled about 120 feet. The automobile engine was thrown through the side of a small carpet loom factory, 50 feet from the crossing, demolishing a loom. No one was in the factory at the time. Killed At Vermontville. "An eastbound Michigan Central filer early Tuesday evening killed an unidentified man, about 60. as he was walking along the tracks about two miles east of the depot. It could not be ascertained whether he did not hear the train’s approach or deliber­ ately walked into the path of the lo­ comotive. He was discovered by Os­ car Hokanson. who was at the river swimming. The bodj* was taken to Ward’s funeral parlors to await at­ tempts at identification. There was nothing on the person to help identify the victim.”—Vermontville Echo. �§ •a-ssl -M-aS^ •a-|oia«i2.SiS 55'^ I a t ,S§^ I«I d § H E 8 R > id I- G 1! ! 4- J? £f ■<& F hl Ji § 2 i 5 H O ■ Fl 2 Ph E 38Sp sMi} SjMa'’ o 5 8 s as Ed 2 «d s U £ £m M 0 sry IFM a iipHysti» Hi.iiiitw’1 iti;^ M fi E Pls& WMeWs*sl*hl° i Mp « 1 2 a a E h a i e ai tc f|h 1 Ha X o ■s’ s h *2 o as «9 al g 35 is 10 K 41 ** 2 si 9 i £ w2ij rHlhsi a «s 11 Wl P1 E3-z B S„ w 3 I 4 31 9 | a 2 3 o lh 0253535353232348484848234823534848532323482389534802 hi a §S> OT 11 dfe1 s b! 1U 4848482323480000232353010201535323532323534823482323 ssas SglI’2 ’pyjl HifPmsy Ip Ihy S ' *a:js»ll"3? ai^^2H'sP*gl!^^S"o6^=5 . e--.i^iyr3‘ytuipi-dp^!!iibs^^n^lo 3ab^a£fi 'ImillLiM 'hyhsh^toi 'jflh ms« •5 ■PSE!®8a. g^laL s £u a'»£ “• I i!'i MHsr«3Hih £x JiH '■’ ft P| 8 !a 6 & &r tn B ►< z 8 ^Hasfsai3..

A slight wind in the right direction Tuesday morning and Nashville would have ost ten times the cost of waler works in a few minutes. The flames had not all been quench­ ed 'ere Hastings had sent emissaries here to endeavor to rob us of one of our pioneer institutions. Nice, sym­ pathetic, neighborly people up there. Don't you want to build a court house or act up another monument or some­ thing like that ? If it is to be a case of the big fish eating the little ones between two towns in the same coun­ ty, Hastings will find Nashville is a “whale.” We don’t feel disposed to hand you out our pocketbooks just yet, and you are liable to get fooled if you think you can come and get them. Hastings Banner in story of Lentz fire—"The lesson to Nashville is one that ought to be heeded. If the loss of her best manufacturing institution does not teach her that some system of fire protection is an indispensable adjunct to a successful town, then she will deserve such losses as those of Tuesday morning. With $30,000 in­ vested in water works, which with the tower system would in two years be self supporting,-Nashville could then hold what institutions she has and be in a position to invite more.” It took an $80,000 fire to wake up Hastings to the necessity of putting in water works. Let us hope that-Nashville will not wait for such a lesson. The leading story of this issue con­ cerned the burning of the furniture factory of J. Lentz & Sons, which had been destroyed on Tuesday morning, when heroic work saved the village.

Michigan's stretch of territory from north to south and the influence of the Great Lakes combine to make life miserable for the scientists who have to compute the proper times to apply protective sprays. Some of these sprays must be applied at ex­ actly the right time or they are of lit­ tle value. The second brood codling moth spray must be used at the time the larvae are trying to pierce the skin of the apple to gain entrance to the fruit. After the worm has worked through the skin of the fruit, any at­ tempts to avoid injury are worthless. The entomologists know how long a period of time intervenes between day of the laying of eggs by the moth and the hatching of the larvae which im­ mediately seek the protection and food afforded by the interior of apples. When the moths emerge in the ob­ serving cages, the college entomolo­ gists calculate the latest date it will be possible to apply a protective spray and then sends the warning to or­ chard owners. Sometimes, the date applies to several counties and, occa­ sionally, to only one. The counties af­ fected are named in each warning. County agricultural agents have the complete directions for mixing the spray and- orchard owners who are not familiar with the mixture can ob­ tain this information from the agents, who also know the spray dates for their counties. —Four Eaton Rapids Boy Scouts left Friday on a 450 mile hike to Houghton state park and the Huron national forest.

College Men Speak On Farm Situation Large Farmers Day Audience Hears President Shaw, Director Gardner And Professor Rather. While President R. S. Shaw. Mich­ igan State College, did not hold out promises of immediate prosperity to the thousands of farmers in the Far­ mers Day audience at.the college, he did point out agriculture has come through similar depressions in 1893 and 1898, in 1907 and 1910, and in 1921 and 1924. President Shaw said, 'There is some consolation in the fact that some good comes out of depressions. I managed a 520 acre stock farm in the period 1893 to 1898 and had to do, more hard thinking than at any other time in my life. During the first years I had only enough to eat, a place to sleep, and enough money to pay the taxes and expenses; but, at the end of the period I had accumulat­ ed a surplus.” He also stated, "The stability of the nation in the future, as in the past, will be dependent upon the farm fam­ ily home.

Teim.. which hu Ion* prided Itself u the "Athene or the South." because ot its tamed educa­ tional Institutions, now has another claim to the name. In Centennial Park, scene of the Tennessee Centen­ nial of 1897. has been completed a reproduction of that architectural jewel of the Acropolis — the Parthe­ non. Formal opening of the build­ ing which, rising majestically from the commanding- point of the pane, will house the Nashville Museum of Art, took place in May with appro­ priate ceremonies. The building stands also as a memorial to the Ten­ nessee Centennial of which is was an outgrowth. The principal exposition building, the Palace of Fine Arts, erected only for temporary use, was When copied rrom the Parthenon. this outlived its usefulness civic lead­ ers urged a permanent reproduction as the ideal centerpiece of Nashville’s most beautiful city park, and the board of park commissioners appro­ priated 1500,000 for the purpose. From the remains of the ancient building the priceless sketches of its wall made by the artist Jacques Car­ rey in 1664. 13 years befoYe their des­ truction, and from the Elgin marbles in the British Museum, the builders of the reproduction sought their auttyjrity. Though several modifica­ tions were necessary to conform to present-day needs, the architects in their endeavor to be accurate whereever possible, conformed to the most exacting of details. For instance, in the ancient structure there was not a single straight line in all the architec­ ture, nor two columns of the same size placed the same distance apart, nor two steps of the same size. To a thousandth of an inch the reproduction is said to be exact in these de­ tails. Edges of the steps, flutes of j the columns and entablature, are all convex. The surface of the great floor can be compared to the surface of a large lens of low magnitude, whose southwest corner is four inch­ es above the level of the other three corners. In the original there were no outside openings through which light could come; in the reproduction admission of light was taken care of by use of heavy glass in the sky­ lights. whose prototype was the finest marble through which dim rays of light filtered. Nor was there any connection between the two rooms, which was a necessity if the building was to serve satisfactorily as a mu­ seum, so two doors were provided, one on either side, as inconspicuous as possible. While not of such fine ma­ terial as the pure Pentelic marble of the original, the reproduction is of a specially prepared stone from the Potomac River, which gives a luster similar to that which once belonged to the ancient ruin* One important feature of the structure, however, the statute of Athena, is missing, because the original never has been traced, al­ though it was declared to be the greatest work of Phideas himself. The nucleus of the art collection for the building was the gift of 63 paint­ ings from the Grand Central Galler­ ies, New York, donated by the late James M. Cowan of New York, a for­ mer Tenesseean.

The old bridge across the pond has been condemned by the authorities, and anyone crossing it does so at their own risk. The river can be forded just below Holler's old mill, without any difficulty, and people with loaded wagons should ford the river and not run the risk of the old bridge falling, and possibly doing great damage. . Charles Newton, living four miles north on the county line, has been having a run of the ague, and on Thursday evening took a large dose of morphine for quinine, and but for prompt medical aid would have pass­ ed the pearly gates ere this. As it is he is still in a precarious condition but Dr. Barber says he hopes to pull him through. The country roads in many places, especially on the hills, are extremely dangerous for horses to travel, on ac­ count of the many pebble stones lying in the track. The law requires that every pathmaster shall see that these troublesome stones are cleared from the track, at least once each month, from April to December, and team­ sters have a right to see that this work is performed. C. C. Wolcott has sold his hardware and real estate to C. L. Glasgow of Jonesville, the real estate for $3,500, and stock to be invoiced at wholesale prices. Mr. G. has had five years' ex­ perience in the retail hardware trade and three years in the wholesale, and Charley says is abundantly able to carry on the hardware business in bet­ ter shape than it has ever been done before. Invoicing the goods is now in progress. The new’ law’ passed at the last ses­ sion of the legislature, prohibiting cattle, sheep, horses and hj>gs from running at large in the state of Mich­ igan, will take effect on the 8th day of next,month. As the new law will ap­ ply to Nashville as well as every­ where else, those owning cows which are running at large, will do well to take warning and govern themselves accordingly, for it is hoped and ex­ pected that the new law w’ill be rigid­ ly enforced in this village. A horse belonging to Henry Scott, living a couple of miles northeast of Vermontville, was turned out to pas­ ture last Saturday, in a field where some log heaps had been burned and the animal soon selected an ash heap for rolling ground. He rolled until his body was completely covered with ashes, and the rain afterwards wet them, making a strong lye which ate hide, hair and flesh, until Mr. Scott thinks he’ll lose his horse. He had only purchased the animal a few days before to fill out a team for his fall’s work and feels very badly because it is so soon rendered useless. By a unanimous vote of the com­ mon council at the last meeting, they tendered the use of the town hall to the school board for school purposes free of charge for the coming year. The building will in every respect be well adapted for a school room and as the acceptance of the school offer will save the district $75 or $80. the school board, if they have the interest of the taxpayers at heart, will undoubtedly accept the proposition. Wednesday"noon a dry kiln which had just been constructed on the M. E. chiirch grounds, from 5000 feet of basswood finishing lumber and boards to enclose, for the new church, took fire and so rapid was the conflagration that not a board was saved. The kiln was constructed without the aid of the old-time stove, dry barrel staves were used to coax the fire, and the church society are out one hundred dollars’ worth of lumber. F. T.

If a $20,000 system of water works is put in here, nearly if not quite $10,­ 000 will be paid out here at home for labor. Nashville Is entirely out of debt and our taxes arc remarkably low. Now is the time to put in water works if we ever Intend to. Francis Showalter left at this office last week an apple twig only a foot longj on which were growing over fif­ ty apples. They were of the Wine variety and the size of a walnut. Last Saturday afternoon while H. I. Barnum Sr. was at the farm of his son Hiram in Woodland, he was kicked in the breast by a horse and quite badly injured, but at present he is doing as well as could be expected under the circumstances. At the Evangelical Sunday school picnic yesterday in Graham’s grove, H. C. Zuschnltt’s horse, which was hitched to a tree, became frightened and broke loose and tore around in great shape, running over Mrs. C. F. Wilkinson and Miss Fernie Lentz, and injuring them quite severely. Wijlle, the 8 year old son of Mr. Manes of Thornapple lake, met with quite a berious accident last Friday. In company with some other boys he was playing on a newly made straw stack and going too close to the edge of the stack, slipped off. Of course he threw out his hands, and in strik­ ing sustained a very bad fracture of the right forearm, both bones being broken, one of them badly comminut­ ed. He was brought to the office of Dr. R. P. Comfort of this village, who set the bones, and he is now as com­ fortable as could be expected. Last night the members of the firm of J. Lentz & Sons met with a num­ ber of the prominent citizens of the town at the Farmers & Merchants bank and signed articles of associa­ tion to incorporate the Lentz Table Co. with a capital stock of $40,000, 50 per cent of which is tc be paid in at the call of officers. The stockhold­ ers elected nine directors as follows: L. E. Lentz, Charles Lentz. Al Lentz, Dr. W. H. Young. Jacob Lentz, C. A. Hough. W. H. Kleinhans, Henry Roe and Frank McDerby. At the direc­ tors' meeting held later, the following officers were elected: president. Dr. W. H. Young; vice president, Charles Lentz: secretary, L. E. Lentz; treas­ urer, C. A. Hough. The company has purchased a fine location from O. A. Phillips and will commence work upon their building immediately. The fac­ tory proper will consist of two build­ ings. each 50x100, and two stories high, with engine and boiler room and dry kilns separate, and it is expected to have the establishment shipping tables again inside of 90 days, with from 30 to 50 men working steadily. Now for water works. Cy A. Hough and family camped out at Bobby lake over Sunday and the first of the week. M. B. Brooks has his new 60 h. p. boiler in place and will start up his works again shortly.

SUPERTWIST CORD FABRIC * USED IN GOODYEAR TIRES Interest in demonstration of Super­ twist Cord Fabric, the kind that is us­ ed in the makeup of the Goodyear tires he sells, never seems to wane, according to Carl Marble, proprietor of the Bross Tire & Battery Shop.

During the other days of fair week a one and one-half fare round trip rate will be authorized. , In addition, the Pere Mar­ quette, Grand Trunk, Pennsyl­ vania. Michigan Central and Wabash Railroads are co-operat­ ing with the fair management and the advisory committee of 14 Detroit business and Indus­ trial leaders appointed by Gov. Wilber M.

BIGGER DISPLAY OF LIVESTOCK AT STATE FAIR EARLY STEPS ARE TAKEN* TO BUILD UP THIS MAJOR DEPARTMENT In line with the greatly broadened outlook this year of the Michigan State Fair and Exposition, now the official title of the annual state exhi­ bition, efforts directed toward a pro­ nounced revival of interest among representative livestock breeders and exhibitors promise a wider range of entries than ever before achieved. Outstanding business and industrial leaders of Detroit having aligned themselves solidly behind the whole fair project, which has been enlarged to embrace a fascinating display of Michigan’s foremost manufactured products, a minimum attendance of half a million is now assured. Plans for the 82nd anniversary of the state fair to be held Sept. 6 to 12, inclusive, offer so much of Interest to every visitor, whether from the city or farming community, man or woman, boy or girl, that the event really, will constitute m6re than two score shows combined, in one huge enterprise. With the working model of Michi­ gan industries, more comprehensive livestock exhibits, special attractions galore and a premium list that totals 196,924, there is evfery reason to believv, according to Secretary John L. McNamara, that the 1931 fair will set a high water mark of success. Conferences already held by mem­ bers of the fair board, associations of stockmen and members of the advisory group augur well not only for finer exhibits this tall but important strides in years to come. Matters such as premiums and better facilities tor ex 'bltors will be taken up from time to e, with every viewpoint taken into sideration.

St. Louis, Me How They Say “Number, PM^ge?” Ewing Galloway IN SWITZERLAND When the American tourist In Switzerland calls up the folks back home to tell them of the thrill of his first glimpse of the Matterhorn, here shown picturesquely outlined by Alpine pines, he doesn't hear the operator greet him with “Number, please?” But, depending upon the part of Switzerlsnd from which he makes the call, he has his choice of hearing the exact equivalent of this expression repeated In any one of throe different languages. Switzerland Is a confederation of more than a score of politfcal subdivisions, or cantons, many of which differ from each other In his­ torical background, population and language. If a telephone call is made In a German-speaking canton, the operator answers "Nummer, bitte?” The French-speaking operators say “Quel numero, s’ll vous plait?” The Italian for "Number, please?” Is “Che numero, prego?" Transatlantic telephone s^vlce was extended to Switzerland In July, 1928. About 300,­ 000 Swiss telephones are now within reach of the subscribers of the Bell System. The service Is used extensively for business purposes, as well as by tourists, for Switzerland Is one of the most highly Industrialized coun­ tries of Europe and much of Its trade is with the United States. Moore Family Reunion. The tweny-first annual reunion of the descendants of Milton and Lydia Caroline Moore was held August 9 at the rural home of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Moore near Battle Creek. Early in the forenoon guests began arriving from Detroit, Grand Rapids. Big Rap­ ids, Battle Creek, Nashville, Vermont­ ville, Bellevue, Olivet, and while the elders engaged in visiting the young people enjoyed bathing in St. Mary’s lake. At the dinner hour a long ta­ ble was arranged under the maples on the lawn and seventy guests sat down to partake of the delicious potluck dinner. After all had done ample justice to they repast, a business meeting was called to order by the president, at which time officers were elected as lollows: president, Walter Moore; vice president, Ernest Moore; and secretary, Fred Kroger. During the year there were three marriages: Elwin Vender and Edna Schulze of Detroit, Wilmur Thomson and Martha Gobles of Battle Creek, and Max Carlisle and Carrie Long of Fife Lake; and three births: a son to Mr. and Mrs Dercle Moore, a daugh­ ter each to Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Moore and Mr. and Mrs. Max Carlisle. The bouquets which decorated the tables were taken to Lakeview ceme­ tery and tenderly placed on the graves of the founders of this family.

A potluck dinner will be served at noon in the dining room of the Briggs church.

A good program is being arranged by the committee, and a cordial invitation is extended to all former teachers, pupils and friends. The officers are: Marian Stanton, president; Floyd Miller, vice pres.; Mrs. Lucy Marshall, sec.-treas. Almost as old as mankind Itself is the story of man’s passion for gold mines in the world are found for its rarity. Curiously enough, this most uncommon ot metals known to the ancients finds Its place in one of the most commonly used of man's Mnodern Inventions—the telephone. When the telephone user lifts his receiver from its hook, two springs come together until their points make contact and establish a cir­ cuit to the central office. Gold is one of the metals out of which the con­ tact points of these springs are made, the others being silver and platinum. These metals are also employed In making contact points of the thousands of relays, or electrically controlled switches, used through­ out the Bell System. Some of the most productive gold, prized alike for Its beauty and In South Africa, though the Klon­ dike and Alaska, scenes of the fa­ mous gold-rush of three decades ago, still produce large quantities of the precious metal.

VOLUME LATH FRANKNESS SAVES A RURALBANKFROMRUIN • Eight Pages • Five Cents the Copy Peter McLaren VERSARY IS OBSERVED Milford Institution Enlists Its Depos­ itors* Co-operation And Avoids Closing Its Doors. Event Held At Prairieville Park On Gull Lake, With Big Dinner And Speeches. 95 PER CENT OF DEPOS­ ITORS ACCEPT PLAN SOME 2000 PEOPLE Fear Has Been Dispelled And The Bank Is Slowly But Surely Pulling Away From Danger. Indians From Bradley Vicinity Fur­ nish Indian Songs And Dance**— Garbed In Native Attire. According to officers of the First State Bank of Milford, the sovereign remedy for "sick banks” is to "lay all the cards on the table. Take the de­ positors completely into your confi­ dence. They'll do the rest," and "be­ hind them, as a basis for their die­ turn," they have an experience in bank stabilization unique in Michigan, perhaps in the United States, accord­ ing to a staff correspondent of The Detroit News, who went to Milford to find out the facts as to how frank­ ness had saved the bank there, and with the depositors' co-operation the bank had avoided closing its doors. New Policy Decided Upon This new policy was decided upon by officers and directors, when its business began to slip, due to bank failures about Milford, not because it was unsound, but because the assets were frozen. Keeping its weakened condition as private as possible had been tried by one Milford bank and had failed. They counselled with Judge Lacy of Detroit, nephew of Lacy, of Lacy & Liddell, who operated the private bank which preceded the First State Bank of Milford. Lacy advised them that the power to keep the bank open or to close it rested .with the deposi­ tors anyway, so they were called to­ gether. More than 600 attended and were told frankly how things were. The depositors were asked to sign a year's moratorium on withdrawals with the privilege of extending this an addi­ tional year. Other depositors were approached until 95 per cent had agreed to the plan. The results seem to assure the complete success of the plan, in the few weeks time since the scheme was started. Not Caused By Run Their trouble developed with the closing of Pontiac banks in March and June. The bank had a lot of good bonds, and wasn't loaded up with real estate mortgages, was capitalized at $25,000, had a surplus of $25,000, both intact, and lots of additional cash. There was no run on this bank when the other Milford bank closed. The bank bad put into effect the 30 days' notice before withdrawal but in a short time 160 depositors gave notice for withdrawals amounting to $100.­ 000. Lacy's plan was talked over with a deputy commissioner of banking in Detroit on July 4. and he gave the bank until Aug. 1 to get it into effect. Going back to Milford, they had a meeting of stockholders. They vol­ unteered a 100 per cent assessment to be paid by Aug. 1 conditional to the working out of the new scheme. They had the meeting of depositors an­ nounced from the pulpits, had the Milford Times, that had never done a job on Sunday, get out several thou­ sand posters, and the meeting was a success. The depositors elected a committee of their own, and they helped put the thing over with the more than 2,000 depositors in less than 25 days. And those who didn’t sign are not to get their money either now as long as the moratorium lasts. In order to take care of the actual distress caus­ ed by tying up the funds under the moratorium, small sums will be loan­ ed to depositors who bring a written statement of actual distress to the depositors' committee and directors of the bank, who will investigate and authorize the loan, which will be charged against their respective per­ centages when a genera] distribution is made. To Stop Idle Talk To stop the calamity howlers, they publi'-ned a 3-column advertisement.

The Albion Colored All-Stars again fell victims to the Nashville Independ­ ents at the Thornapple Lake grounds Sunday afternoon in a shut-out game, the score standing 3 to 0. The game was quite even, as the a:ore would in­ dicate, but was lacking in thrills, as Nashville scored two of their runs in the opening‘inning, and thereafter the colored boys, while they played good ball, seemed lacking in pep and enthusiasm. Archie Martin pitched a first class game for Nashville, with Yarger re­ ceiving, allowing but three.singles and getting eleven strike-outs. Bishop, the colored twirler, also fanned elev­ en. but was nicked for nine safeties. Mason singled to start the first inning, stole second and scored on Martin's two-bagger. Halsey and Yarger also connected for safe hits, scoring Martin. That ended the scor­ ing until the eighth Inning, when sin­ gles by Coville and Halsey and an er­ ror in the outfield gave Nashville one more run. A good game is promised for next Sunday afternoon at the lake, when Grand Ledge comes here for a return game.

Antique Maker Turns Out Fine Holland Replica B. P. Seward, master builder of an­ tiques, and never so happy as when "creating” something in his Nashville shop, has just completed a Holland piece, an old Dutch serving table, from solid black walnut, mostly from an old English chest brought from England by J. C. Hurd’s father. There are three trays of different sizes tn this serving table, which moves about readily and noiselessly on rubber tired casters. The upper, the smaller, is large enough for the table decoration, a vase or pot of flowers. The other two revolve at the touch. It is all nicely finished. No nails were used in putting it together; it was glued and dovetailed in a very perfect way, in the "Seward way." A small model of this Dutch serv­ ing outfit, made by Mr. Seward, pre­ viously was picked up quickly by some Detroit decorators who visited Mr. Seward’s shop. AU Nashville folks know Mr. Sew­ ard is never so‘happy as when orig­ inating or copying antiques. The News recommends him for the posi­ tion of antique counsellor to Henry Ford, who has such a large collection of real and copied antiques, in various parts of the country. Barry county’s Centennial celebra­ tion of the first white settlement within Its borders was fittingly held in Prairieville township, where the land taken up by this pioneer. Amasa S. Parker, lies, and Prairieville Park on Gull lake made a wonderful setting for the event, carried out with all the dignity and simplicity imaginable, and in keeping with the spirit of the olden days. Again the Indians roved the park, true not the Indians of a century ago, but descendants from these aboriginees, gathered about the Slater Mission in the olden days and coming now from the Bradley vicin­ ity. Some two thousand people gathered Saturday at Prairieville Park, for this Nashville Dogs Go celebration, where there was no bar­ tering of any kind, no concessions, not Far To New Owners even eating stands, to mar the pic­ ture.

FORTY YEARS AGO. Items Taken From The News Of Fri­ day, August 21, 1891. Is there a firebug in our midst? If so. he should be ferreted out and lynched. Had Nashville a system of water works Sunday morning, with a hy­ drant near J. B. Marshall's elevator, in all probability the factory of the Barker Scale Co. might have been saved. There is no probability of the Lentz Table Co. erecting their new factory in Nashville unless the water works proposition is carried. Many of the directors and stockholders have expressed themselves as against build­ ing in the village unless they can have fire protection. The leading story in this issue was another fire story, this time the plant of the Barker Scale company, which burned to the ground. The story states that “Shortly after one o'clock Sunday morning the inhabitants of the village were again awakened by the clangor of the firebell summoning them to witness the destruction of an­ other of Nashville’s manufacturing in­ stitutions, the factory of the Barker Scale Co. The fire was discovered in its infancy by Amiel Schulze and Charley Deller and had there been axes, ladders and pails handy, it might have been extinguished. They ran up town and gave the alarm and the citizens responded promptly, but before the proper utensils with which to combat the fire could be secured the whole building was in flames, and all that could be done was to stand idly by and watch it burn. The fire started at the southwest corner of the building, near the front end of the boiler, and when first discovered was on the outside of the building, and some of the early arrivals aver that there was no fire on the inside, which would indicate incendiarism, which is strongly suspected. The fire gained headway rapidly and by 2:30 there was nothing left of the factory but ruins. None of the , contents were saved with the exception of one pair of one-bushel grain scales. The loan is $3,000 with not one cent of insur­ ance. Ed French, who worked for the company, lost all his tools valued at $100. In all probability the works will not be rebuilt in Nashville. Here is a chance for ‘neighborly Hast­ ings’.” West Kalamo By Mrs. Truman ourdnler The annual picnic of the Striker and Quimby schools .will be held at Herrington’s Resort at Clear lake, near Dowling, Aug. 28. These picnics are always looked forward to with great pleasure because of the meeting of so many friends. Mr. and1 Mrs. George Jensen of Mt. Clemens have been visiting her par­ ents, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Cramer, for several days. Mr. and Mrs. Walter Ickes spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Fred Mayo of Maple Grove. We surely are glad to report that Rev. F. W. King and family were re­ turned to the Baltimore circuit for another year. They have been attend­ ing camp meeting and conference the past two weeks. Saturday Ira Crook of Missouri, in company with a sister from Hastings, called at the Walter Ickes home. Mr. Crook was the son of Christopher Crook, who many years ago owned the farm and built the original house on the Walter Ickes farm. As years pass by how natural it is that even­ tually our footsteps lead to the home of our childhood and although many changes are made nevertheless how consoling are the few original land­ marks we find. Sunday Mr. and Mrs. W. Cruttenden visited at the Chas. Peck home in Rutland township. The Wm. Cramer family, Houghtalins and Tina Chaffee, have been en­ tertaining Chas. Cramer, children, and a friend from Philadelphia, Missouri, for the past several days. Mr. Cram­ er is the son of Eli Cramer, a half­ brother of Mrs. Electa Houghtalln, Cynthia Chaffee and William Cramer.

(Continued from last week) July 12. I started to write you on the train last night but it was too “jiggly' so gave up. Yesterday was a very hard day. We sighted land about noon— some islands off the coast of Ireland. It looked very good although we had so much fun on the boat. Everyone was getting so well acquainted and the fun was just starting. We pack­ ed our bags and got them labeled and on deck. Then we watched the shore line of Cornwall—the castles, forts, fields and beautiful wooded country. The customs officers came on board the boat and examined our passports. It took about three hours altogether, and then we were taken on a ■‘ten­ der" (smaller boat) to shore. Our boat certainly looked big as we pulled away from it. It didn't seem as though we had been on It at all. We were then pushed around through a lot of entrances that were much too small for so many people, and into the custom house. They took just a min­ ute to examine our baggage. They didn't even open our bags; just asked us. A man met us at Plymouth and helped us through and to the train. They have special ones they call boat trains. Plymouth was a very beauti­ ful harbor. The fields look like our lawns with bush hedges. The build­ ings are very quaint, made ot stone, and they are in series. Have funny chimneys, rows upon rows of them. It was terribly thrilling. We all felt like immigrants for once in our lives. The trains are so very queer. They have compartments with long seats facing each other, and the aisle on the outside of the train. You can sleep on these if you wish—pull down all the shades. Grace and I studied the landscape until it got dark, then slept. It took from 8:30 to 1 o'clock to get to London. We have a very nice place to stay. Good beds and food, a down comfortable for the cover. I can’t write all the details of London, because I’m much too tired. Today (Sunday) we went to St. Paul's Cathedral for church. It is beautiful. Then for rides, and I sat in Hyde Have done Park for a long time, some sketching. Am just crazy to draw all the time. Tomorrow we go to the Shakespearean Country’. We are very well taken care of, all tn the party are older than Grace and L Mr. and Mrs. Waggoner are very nice about taking care of things for ua July 14. We have a few more minutes be­ fore leaving for Dover. We are cross­ ing the channel at night and two days earlier than we expected. I guess it isn’t customary for any tour to run according to schedule, That puts our itinerary two days behind. London is very nice although the English are hard to get acquainted with, and don’t have much use for Americans— they don’t respect their customs quite enough. If I remember correctly, that’s the reason a lot of them left dear old England. We went to the Shakespearean Country Monday.’ It was a nice day but rained several times. No one seems to think anything about that though. They have busses they roil the tops up and down on very easily. Liege, Belgium, July 15. I had to leave this and have been jumping around so much since we have been in Belgium. I doubted whether I would be able to send it. My French is very poor and I don’t know the word for postage stamp. Today I bought a post card and took It around to several shops pointing to the corner where a stamp belongs, and finally got five. You see the numbers here go by different names too. Now to go back a few day*. In the Shakespearean Country we saw Kenilworth Castle, Warwick Castle, Shakespeare's birthplace and Ann Hathaway's. We took the train from London to Dover—but I’m getting ahead again. Tuesday, we saw the guards drill' in front of Buckingham Palace, saw Westminster Abbey and drove around the city. I was very tired of sight-seeing, so excused my­ self from the party and started out. I found the German Consulate and got my passport fixed up for Germany. He was a very gracious, humorous, old man. Then I found Fprsythe’s— a men’s clothing store, and got the sox. It's a very nice store. Every time I inquired my way, someone ask­ ed me what part of the States I was from. I shopped at Liberty’s, and that has Wanamaker's or Marshall Field’s backed off the map. Then had tea in a very nice shop, and then to find my way home. I saw the most of London, trying to get back to the hotel. • After getting to Trover we took the night boat to Ostend, a large resort town. We were from 1 o'clock to 4. Not much sleep. It was a very calm crossing. We saw at Ostend men with wooden shoes, fishing boats, the King’s summer home, and the prom­ enade that reaches from Belgium to Holland. It has rained every day since Sunday, and has been rather un­ pleasant Mr. DuPont, our professor, is a marvelous teacher and man. Am very much pleased with the tour. We had a French lesson, and I believe Til be able to talk French some when I get home. In the afternoon we went to Brus­ sels and from there to Liege. Beau­ tiful country. We saw some of the battlefields. We are staying at a nor­ mal school for girls here. This morning we were received by the city —a vbry pompous ceremony. The American flag outside the city hall— speeches and everything—reporters galore. It was quite an honor, all ar­ ranged through the University. They have lovely things planned for u*. I’m so tired I'm ready to go to bed at 8 o’clock. We all eat like thresh­ ers and the food is very good. Tomorrow we go -into Germany. We are taking Belgium, French. Eng­ lish or American money, because the German mark isn't much good. Am anxious to see the inside of the situa­ tion there. The English were very much disturbed about it We are to be in Germany five days, and then in Italy for a while. (To be continued) Mrs. Nellie Lockhart is home for a few weeks. Mrs. Etta Baker is improving and now sits up a tiny bit in her wheel chair.

Bum Cull Onions To Control Pests Insect Enemy Of Crop Lives Over Winter In Refuse Piles Left After Harvest. Michigan onion growers can save trouble with their next year's crop if they destroy the culls from the pres­ ent harvest and thus eliminate one of the principal hiding places of the pupae of the onion fly, according to the entomology department of Mich­ igan State college. Members of the department, through field observations made dur­ ing the past three years, have found that the piles of cull onions left in the fields furnish an ideal winter home for this insect. When the new crop is planted the rext year, adult flies emerge from the culls and lay eggs on the growing onions. The culls should be destroyed im­ mediately because some of the larvae of tbe onion maggot leave the culls and pupate in the ground beneath the piles. The next spring, the adult flies emerge from the puae cases in the soil. Burying deep in the soil or burning will destroy the onion maggots in the cull onions. The maggots are the lar­ vae of a fly which is about the size of the ordinary house fly. Control of the insect afrer it becomes established in the growing crop is difficult and ex­ pensive. Allegan county is credited with the greatest acreage of onions in Mich­ igan but every county, except Chippe­ wa grows enough to get credited with commercial production in the state crop reports.

Miller, Props Michigan Ha* A Plentiful Supply Of This Important Element Need­ ed For Alfalfa. Michigan has 'many thousands of acres of sol! which need lime before they will successfully grow alfalfa but the state also has an inexhaust­ ible supply of marl which will correct the acidity of these soils, according to the agricultural engineering depart­ ment ef Michigan State college. Some of the marl deposits are so shallow and so thickly covered with muck that it is impractical to remove the marl but many beds have been located where it is possible to remove the mar! at low cost. Almost every county in the state has at least one marl bed which will supply this soil builder. The question of using marl or oth­ er forms of lime is simply a question of cost. The form to use is the one which the farmer can obtain the cheapest. Sometimes agricultural limestone can be obtained in certain sections more cheaply than marl can be excavated and hauled to the farm. In some localities, the cost of digging and haulffig marl is less than expense of applying limestone. A practical marl bucket, which can be used with a team or a tractor for excavating the material has been perfected by the agricultural engin­ eering department of the college. From 30 to 50 yards of marl can be dug in one day with this type of bucket which is relatively inexpen­ sive. Have,. Your Car gone over thor­ oughly before starting on the vacation.

More are on the way. The machine age also has its tech­ nique for bull fighting. When Robert Graves’ bull broke loose at Austin. Minn., Graves sent for Constable A. E. Jarvis' with the idea of having the animal shot. Instead of drawing his gun, the constable mounted a truck and charged the bull for two hours, finally toppling it Into a water trough. The bull quit Johnny Williamson, who is five and Scotch, had no use for a steamer trunk. The wee laddie, traveling alone, landed from the liner Caledonia at New York, wearing a fur lined cap under a fedora, an overcoat, a top coat, sweater, leather jacket, kilts, heavy shoes and tweed breeches. "I bought a great coat Instead of a bag to bring ’em in," he told his mother. John Kramp, 58. and his brother, Edward. 53. were killed Instantly when their automobile struck a road grader while returning to their farm home after making funeral arrange­ ments for a third brother. A triple funeral service was thought probable at the time and place the two broth­ ers had arranged that services should be held for Fred Kramp, 61, whose death followed an operation for appen­ dicitis. George Stanton, driver of the ro.ad car, was a cousin by marriage of the Kramps. Safd to be over 1300 years old. a giant cypress tree containing 16.175 board feet has just been cut in the Amite River marsh by a Garyville lumber company, according to Robert Moore, Extension Forester at the Louisiana State University at Baton Rouge. The entire tree was discov­ ered to be sound when cut. The stump's diameter was 92 inches and the diameter at the top of the first log was 71 inches. The tree was ex­ pected to yield more than a carload of lumber, Mr. Moore said. Australian farmers have had enough trouble with their cows get­ ting bullheaded and refusing to ob­ serve daylight saving time. At a re­ cent conference the question of intro­ ducing a daylight saving bill arose, but it was quickly put down again by a delegate from the country who de­ clared that the measure had failed in the past. "People put their clocks ahead an hour," he said, “but in the paddocks the cows received no notice of^ the action. They insisted upon coming and going according to the sun." An old soldier, Jim Whisky Nazaire, is dead. It was not so long ago that Jim Whisky Nazalre came out of the World War the toast of po­ lice dogdom. Three times the dog was cited by the French for whom he served—once for rescuing a party of French soldier, again for speedy de­ livery of a dispatch and a third time for "displaying almost human intelli­ gence." That was after he had been wounded in action in the Argonne. Harry E. Pape, then a captain of in­ fantry, bought Whisky at the close of the war and brought him to his home at Macon, Ga. Jim Whisky was born in France in 1917. A speeding passenger train passed over 2-year-old Betty Jean Zank. daughter of Otto Zank, 806 Prospect Ave., NE., Grand Rapids—and Betty Jean lives and laughs. The child was playing on the Grand Trunk track? near Lafayette Ave. The train whiz­ zed around the bend and was upon her in a second. Betty Jean was be­ tween the rails, where she was found unconscious after the last car had passed. She was revived in a few minutes and taken to Butterworth hospital, where attendants said that her injuries apparently consisted, of minor scalp lacerations and bruises. She remained at the hospital over night for observation. Trapped in the cockpit of a biplane he was testing when a wing ripped off at a height of 2,000 feet, Frederick Postal, 19, of Highland Park, and a former resident of Mt. Pleasant, fell to within 400 feet of the earth three miles west of Imlay pity before he could leap in bis parachute. Because the plane was dropping in his line of flight he could not open his parachute until he was about 200 feet above the ground. He landed, slightly bruised, between a high tension wire and a cherry tree. The plane crashed about 15 feet away. Postal was making a test flight for the Wingler Aeronaut­ ical corporation of Imlay City when the near fatal accident occurred. Miss Margaret Price of Rodenhurst, Oxted, Surrey, England, has become the first woman member of the Auc­ tioneers' and Estate Agents' Institute. Woman has already, of course, exper­ imented upon the auctioneer’s platfohn, but never before in England has a woman entered the examination of the institute and passed it with hon­ ors, thus qualifying herself for firstclass membership . Miss Price was a secondary school teacher until a de­ sire for something offering wider pos­ sibilities turned her attention to whe­ ther an auctioneer’s hammer and an auctioneer’s table might not, ‘ with beneficial results, replace the desk and the ruler of the classroom. In the open examination, Mias Price, who was one of 698 candidates, came second in point of marks. Notice To Creditors.

Deceased was 84 years of age. and was born in Chicago, where, prior to the Chicago fire which burn­ ed all records, the father owned much property in what Is now down town Chicago. Mr. Gloster, a Civil War veteran, was stricken with paralysis a year and a half ago and had been an in­ valid ever since, and for some time had been unable to leave his bed. Previous to the stroke, though failing In health, he had been active and very erect for a man past eighty years of age. and untiring in his devotion to his wife, who had been in ill health for some years before her death two years ago. A few months after Mrs. Gloster’s passing he took up his residence with his daughter, Mrs. Edward L. Sargent of Levering, who has so devotedly cared for him through his long ill­ ness.

The apple .anded in the car. Luckily the driver escaped injury and did not lose control of his car, but turned about as soon as possible and chased the car to Nashville. No one in the car, which he was positive was the car he had met so recently, claimed to know any­ thing about the apple throwing inci­ dent So nothing was done, but the party doing it should have had a good trouncing, to say the least, and pay for the windshield in the bargain.

Business There But You Must Go Out And Get It William Nelson Taft, editor of the Retail Ledger, said, in the vernacular of the day, "a mouthful" when he broadcast the following advice to “go out after business": • "A little more than a year ago we were the richest and most prosperous nation in the world—and we cheered wildly about that fact. “Today we are still,the richest and most prosperous nation in the world. "During this year of ’terrible de­ pression’ we ,as a nation, have spent $325,000,000 on miniature golf courses. We have broken all records for sav­ ings deposits—with one bank in New York City now having, in its savings accounts, enough money to purchase the annual sale of Macy's, Marshall Fields’ and J. L. Hudson’s, the three largest stores in the country, and still have $100,000,000 left over. We are turning in ’gates’ of a quarter mil­ lion dollars at a number of baseball games every Saturday. We are con­ suming more gasoline, buying more electric refrigerators and purchasing more washing machines than ever be­ fore. "Yet, as a nation, we are telling ourselves what a terrible jam we’re in. And we may be. if we don’t start to convince ourselves to the con­ trary."

The governor fj^id the great economic cycle has brought industries so huge the people were unable to thnk in terms of less than millions and was now turning back to give smaller industries a pre­ dominant place in the new civilization. "Suppose your smaller industries, instead of Inhabiting a large town, moved out to a farm community. There those taxes would be smaller. Your employe’s dollar would buy milk for 5 cents a quart; and vegetables seven days a week at less than he pays now for a fourth as much.

Governor Brucker, taking his stand with President Hoover in opposition to federal unemployment relief, has called upon the people of Michigan to “plan together and win our way out of this difficulty." • At the same time the governor an­ nounced the appointment of 16 mem­ bers of a state commission on unem­ ployment, which will hold its first meeting in Lansing on Sept 4. He has named a committee of 16 to as­ sist the state jobless. On this com­ mittee are: Samuel H. Rhoads. Lans­ ing, state commissioner of labor and industry; Henry Ford, Dearborn; Charles S. Mott, Flint, automobile manufacturer and banker; Gustavus D. Pope, Detroit, member of the na­ tional executive committee of the American Red Cross; David R. Wil­ son, Pontiac manufacturer; Louis Weil, publisher of the Port Huron Times-Herald; Charles Woodbury, Bay City locomotive engineer; Mrs. Carl B. Chamberlain, Detroit; J. Wal­ ter Drake, Detroit manufacturer; Michael J. Noonan, Jackson, secretary of the Michigan farm bureau: Mrs. W. W. Warren. Detroit; John W. Blodgett, Grand Rapids lumberman: Phelps Newberry, Detroit banker; O. C. Davidson, Iron Mountain mining executive; A H. Landwehr, Holland manufacturer, and Arnold Lenz, Sag­ inaw, automobile engineer. Endorses Hoover In a telegram to President Hoover, accepting on behalf of Michigan the responsibility for unemployment re­ lief. Gov. Brucker said: “I wish unqualifiedly to endorse your position that the relief of unem­ ployed be provided by the communi­ ties of the several states and not by the federal government. I am unal­ terably opposed to direct federal aid of the unemployed and am convinced that such a course, once embarked upon, would lead to lasting and disas­ trous consequences for our country, as it has in other countries. “I am today announcing the ap­ pointment of a state-wide commission to advise and aid in co-ordinating the relief work in all the communities of this state. We will gladly and fully co-operate with the committee you have appointed. I am convinced that your plan of calling upon all of the states and communities in the coun­ try to handle their own local prob­ lems is the only sound method and I feel that the citizens of other states will join Michigan in supporting you to the utmost to that end. A formal statement issued by the governor as he announced his commis­ sion said: Community Burden. “The burden of unemployment re­ lief must be carried by the commun­ ity where our people live, and the full recognition of that principle is essen­ tial to thorough and effective action in meeting the present situation. The habit of turning to Washington for aid from every direction has become a tremendous evil influence, and the sooner we assert our independence and manfully carry our own burdens, the quicker we will come out of this period of depression. “It may seem easy to expect the federal government to do the job tfccause Washington seems so far away, but since every other state would likewise expect aid, our own state would pay in the end just the same. Therefore, this is our job and our peo­ ple should attend to it themselves. I know the people of Michigan are equal to this job. and I call upon them to plan together and we will win our way out of this difficulty without asking Washington to come here and do it for us. “The state comsnission on unem­ ployment will be appointed with per­ sonnel as indicated. Some of the members of this commission have al­ ready been contacted and accepted. A meeting of the commission will be called for Sept 4 at 11 a. m. in the executive office in Lansing, at which time the project will be fully out­ lined." On the complaint of the Michigan State Securities Commission, a war­ rant was signed by Judge Christopher E .Stein in Recorders Court in De­ troit, charging Felix J. Mahler, vice president of the Federal Bond & Mort­ gage Co. with violating the blue sky law. I. A. Capizzi, assistant attorney general, went to Detroit for the war­ rant for Mahler, vice president and general manager of the Federal Bond & Mortgage company. He is the sec­ ond person whose arrest is sought in connection with the one-man grand jury investigation of the company’s affairs now in progress before Circuit Judge Leland W. Carr of Ingham county, according to dispatches ap­ pearing in Michigan city dailies. Mahler is alleged to have issued $180,000 worth of bonds on the Amb­ ler apartment in Detroit, without having gained the approval of the state securities commission in one story, and in another with specifically selling Edward M. Kueher, Detroit, bonds to the amount of $5,000, the sale of which had not been authoriz­ ed by the commission. I .A. Capizzi, assistant attorney general, said the company had not made application for authorization. Irregularities Found John Park, accountant in charge of an audit of the company’s books by the Detroit Trust Co., receivers, tes­ tified last week that he had found ir­ regularities to the amount of $614,­ 942.01. Attorney General Voorheis said the other blue sky warrant pos­ sibly will follow, but that the state is hampered somewhat by the fact that the 1929 legislature failed to attach the saving clause to the new blue sky law. Under bond of $2,500 following his arraignment Wednesday on a charge of violating the Michigan blue sky laws, Felix J. Mahler awaited exam­ ination, set for Tuesday of this week. Mahler pleaded not guilty Wednes­ day when arraigned before Judge W. McKay Skillman in recorders court. The warrant for his arrest was sign­ ed by John F. Heuni of the Michigan securities commission, following in­ formation derived from the one-man grand jury investigation in Ingham county as stated above. The state returned to its co-opera­ tion with the Ingham county prose­ cutor Thursday in the one-man grand jury investigation of the Federal Bond & Mortgage Co., despite an announce­ ment by Prosecutor John Wendell Bird that he would continue the probe alone. Inquiry Continued I. A. Capizzi, assistant attorney general assigned to the investigation, returned from Detroit to join Bird in a continuance of the inquiry. He said he was delayed in reaching Lansing because of his duties in the metropolis. Prosecutor Bird made a second an­ nouncement in which he said Capiz­ zi's explanation was satisfactory and that he would continue to work with the state in the investigation. Members of the consolidated bond­ holders' protective committee in Lans­ ing to testify in the investigation on Thursday were A. H. Moorman, chair­ man of the committee; Julius EL Moeller, vice president of the Equit­ able & Central Trust Co. of Detroit, and Samuel C. Mumford, treasurer of the Detroit Edison Co. and former president of the Detroit board of edu­ cation. Independents Lose To Grand Ledge, 4-3 First Defeat Of Seaaon.

Clipped from The Michigan In their first defeat of the season, the Nashville Independents lost to ths Grand Ledge nine at Tbornapple lake Sunday afternoon by a score of 4 to 3. Several factors contributed to the downfall of the local ball-tossers, not the least of which were a couple of errors made at a time when they were most costly. Bill Martin occu­ pied the mound for Nashville and be pitched a good game, allowing but few safe hits. Hodge started in the box for Grand Ledge, but Jhe pace got too hot for him in the sixth and be was replaced by Hopkins, who fared much better. For next Sunday afternoon at the lake, Manager Cole has booked the Lansing Police Department team to take the place of the Duck Lake nine, which had cancelled their game. The Lansing team recently downed ths House of David aggregation, so a good game may be expected Sunday. On Friday afternoon of thLi week the Independents are scheduled to play the strong Dixie Oil team of Chariotte at the Farmers' Rally at the Hastings fair grounds. Celebrated Natal Day. Mra.

His simple prescription will make that bilious, headachy, cross boy or girl comfortable, happy, well in just a few hours. It soon restores the bowels to healthy regularity. It helps “break-up” a cold by keeping the bowels free from all that sickening mucus waste. You hare a famous doctor’s word for this laxative. Dr. Caldwell’s record of having attended over 3500 births with­ out the loss of one mother or baby is believed unique in American medical history. Gel a bottle of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin from your drugstore and have it ready. Then you won't have to worry when any member of your family is headachy, bilious, gassy or constipated. Syrup Pepsin is good for all ages. It sweetens the bowels; increases appetite —makes digestion more complete. Dau W. B.

Conditions in Sunfield seemed per­ fectly normal to D. G. Weippert, 65, cashier of the Sunfield State bank, as he stepped along to the bank on Fri­ day morning, preparatory to begin­ ning the day's duties, but his en­ trance to tne bank was the signal for the appearance of three masked ban­ dits, who confronted him and with a sawed-off shotgun and revolver, forc­ ed him to open the vault, from which they scooped $1577 and escaped in a car after binding and gagging • the cashier and threatening to kill him if he touched the burglar alarm. The bank is housed in an old hotel building, occupying only part of it. George Gardner. 50. sleeping in one of the rooms, did not hear anyone, but the three men had entered the building, state police believe, at about 2 a. m.. crawling into the basement through a window, and then cutting through a door into the bank offices. Dustcloths found in the bank had been made into masks. Weippert said that when he enter­ ed the bank at 7:30 a. m.. he found a map of Eaton county, marked with the names and residences of vigilan­ tes. spread out on the floor, and sur­ mised something was wrong. Then the bandits, one armed with a sawedoff shotgun and another with an au­ tomatic pistol, confronted him. and forced him to open the vault. After scooping up the entire con­ tents of the vault, and tying up the cashier, they removed their masks and left by the side door to the car they had parked. They somehow aroused the suspicion of Mr. and Mrs. Archie Stinchcomb, who operate a drug store across the street from the bank, as they came to their car parked there, and they noted the li­ cense number, each writing it down. Weippert squirmed close to the burglar alarm and touched it. and state police were on the scene in 30 minutes to find no clues. Witnesses said the trio drove out of town on the road toward Lansing. The automobile they were driving was reported stolen from that city. This car was found Sunday after­ noon near Shimlicon, an old Indian damp ground, six miles north of Sun­ field on the River road, by William Sleetham of Sunfield, while riding with his wife and children. State police and members of the Eaton county sheriff's department were notified. Numerous finger prints found on this car may aid in establishing the identity of the ban­ dits. When discovered by Mr. Sleetham, the car was partially hidden in a clump of bushes. It was to be re­ turned to the Lansing owner from whom it was stolen the day before the robbery. Weippert described one bandit as short and stubby, another as slender and of medium height and the third as tall and slim, speaking with a German accent AU wore soft felt hats. MISS DOROTHY POWERS RETURNS HOME FRIDAY Miss Dorothy Powers, who has spent the summer very delightfully in a travel-study tour abroad, reach­ ed Nashville Friday, very glad to again greet her parents, Mr. and Mrs. S E. Powers, and others of the fam­ ily and friends. Miss Powers en­ countered higher seas on her return and was a little seasick on this part of the ocean trip. However she gain­ ed 10 pound in weight despite her almost ceaseless activity while away. Excerpts from her short letters home, prepared by her mother, Mrs. S. E. Powers, for The News, have been thoroughly enjoyed by News readers, who have been able in this way to glimpse ths trip in an abbreviated way. She kept a log with daily en­ tries and more voluminous than the letters she has written as she found a Uttle time at her disposal. From this she will have a very full report for the home folks and her intimate friends, for whom travel time letters were impossible, just the briefer let­ ters home. Miss Powers left Tuesday for Kalamazoo to settle her apart­ ment preparatory to attending an in­ stitute and resuming her position in the Kalamazoo schools. Miss Mabel Mater wiU be with her this year. Nearly everyone has heard some of the broadcasts of the current seasoq from the National High School Orchestra and Band camp at’ Inter­ lochen, Michigan, and enjoyed them immensely. It is Interesting to note this is the fourth season. The camp is a non-profit corporation with assets weU over $200,000, consisting of some 200 acres of land bordering two beau­ tiful lakes, 15 miles southwest of Traverse City on which are over 60 buildings, electrically lighted, a com­ plete water and sewer system, a fine open-air stage in a natural bowl with a capacity of 1000 people, and there were over 7000 persons attended the concert directed by Sousa this year. Small Murder Case In Emmet Co. Is Mystery Reuben Small, son-in-law of Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Athearn. found crush­ ed and bleeding on the highway near Levering, came to his death at the hands of some unknown person or persons, according to the verdict of the coroner's jury at Petoskey. The jury did not place the blame. Leon Pike, who had been held in connection with the case, testified at the inqilest and following the verdict was releas­ ed. Prosecuting Attorney A. T. Washburne asked the attorney gen­ eral's department of Lansing to send an assistant attorney general to Pe­ toskey to assist in handling not only the Small case, but also another mur­ der case, pending in circuit court. Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Athearn, former residents of this vicinity, recently vis­ ited hereabout. Long Hitch-Hike Trip In Search Of Brother Carl Elsrnhnrdt of 2128 N. 13th street. Sheboygan. Wis.. made a futile hitch-hikq trip to this section last week to see his brother, Clayton Eisenhardt, who had come to the home of his aunt. Mrs. Will Fowler. Kalamo. after the death of Mr. Fowler last fall. He had not been advised of the death of his aunt, and did not know his brother had returned to Fort Snelling. Minn., to complete his service as quartermaster in the com­ missary department. Until he came here he was unaware that Mr. Fow­ ler had taken his life while despond­ ent. So he was going to hitch-hike back and go to. Fort Snelling to see his brother. H? crossed the lake to Ludington, and planned to return by the same water route. In Nashville he attempted to compete in the log chopping contest, coming in third. He had formerly worked in the woods, but not for some time, so he didn't win the purse, but was loud in his praise of the work of Mr. McLaren. Nashville Folks Win Flower Show Award Much of a success was the flower show sponsored by the Hastings Wo­ man's club, despite the season’s drouth. The attendance was excel­ lent and the displays fine. There was a registered attendance of 650. A special feature, "before and af­ ter." showed an unkept lot and the result of the same after it was gar­ dened and properly cared for. show­ ing to fine advantage that gardening is worth while. Another feature was tables set for parties or social gatherings of chil­ dren and adults. These were critical­ ly examined by the women folks. The visitors voted their sentiments as to the merits of the different settings. The judges who made the awards were: Judge Clark Higbee of Grand Rapids. George W. Hunter and Miss RudolphfT of Dowagiac. The awards were as follows: Among those winning awards in the amateur class was Mrs. Fern Smith of Nashville, who received the prize for sweet peas and for the best specimen of zinnias; J. E. McElwain, Hastings, well known here, took sev­ eral awards in gladioli displays, sec­ ond in salmon, first in red and first in white and the finest single specimen, pink and salmon, and third award In red gladioli.

Harry Gould's and Reuben Norton’s patches have already been visited, and the melons and vines destroyed It is alleged also that some of the boys who did this lawless and incon­ siderate act are known, and if they are wise they will cease their activi­ ties along that line. A Middleville Boy Is Killed By Auto Clarence Robert Kelly. 12. living on M-37 near Middleville, lost his life al­ most instantly on Monday, as he step­ ped from a school "bus in front of his parents' home, and dashed across the highway in front of the automobile of Lawrence A. Hill. 1442 Milton St. SE.. Grand Rapids. He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. James Kelley and was returning from the first day of school, of the new school year. and was killed at virtual­ ly the same spot at which his nephew, a son of Mrs. Margaret Taber. Clar­ ence's sister, met death under similar circumstances in May. Food For Thought From Eagle township. Ionia coun­ ty. some large yields of alfalfa seed have been reported, among them that on the farm of Stanley McCrumb, who threshed 82 bushels from eight acres. He received $20.00 per bushel, or $1640 for the crop. This eight acres was certified Hardigan alfalfa seed. McCrumb had also 32 acres of Grimm seed, which threshed 212 bushels, and this sold for $10 per bushel. This was grown on his fath­ er’s farm, which he works in connec­ tion with his own. These seed sales total $3760, which is very fortunate for Mr. McCrumb, especially during a year of depression. Resigns Position As Barry Co. Club Worker Miss Beatrice Boyle, county club worker in Barry county, has been ob­ liged to discontinue her work, owing, it is understood, to a sudden nervous breakdown. Her physician directed her to cease her club activities and not to ride in an automobile fox, a year, it is said, so she has gone to her home near Buchanan, where she will rest up preparatory to resuming her work again. County Agent Foster will carry on the 4-H club work until the supervisors’ meeting in October and other arrangements can be made for carrying on the work which Miss Boyle has done so splendidly.

Three directors were elected or rather re-elected, being Freel G^rlinger, Ed. Penfold and Er­ nest Gray. The financial report of the manag­ er, E. D. Olmstead, was presented and passed on. This report discloses the fact that the association is in a pros­ perous condition despite the present depression and comparative low pric­ es of produce. It shows the total as­ sets to be $45,134.80, with total liabil­ ities of $10,692.85, and a total net worth of $34,441.95. A net profit for the year ending June 30. 1931. is not­ ed as $2,043.67. A dividend of $1.­ 399.50 had also been paid, leaving a surplus of $10,766.95. The present success of this associa­ tion is due largely to the efforts of the manager, E. D. Olmstead, who has been in charge of its business af­ fairs for some time. To the regular business of the elevator has been ad­ ded various items used by its mem­ bers. such as farm machinery, the necessary repair parts for same, oils and greases, tile, salt, binder twine, coal and seeds of all kinds. The total valuation of shipments of farm pro­ ducts made by the association during the fiscal year amounted to approx­ imately $105,212.00, which is quite a tidy sum. School opens Tuesday with five new teachers: SupL W. D. Wallace, Wood­ ward Smith, Arlie Reed, Olith Wood and Frances Cramer. Supt. W. D.

Reed has an unusual record in athletics, having played on college teams in five sports: basket-ball, base ball, foot­ ball. track and feqnis. With a coach like Reed and. the material that is available, wehave some real jeams representing Nashville in the major sports.

Of the six­ teen townships in Barry county we quote figures relating to Castleton and Maple Grove townships as of par­ ticular interest to our readers. Castleton township has 201 farms of 19,488 acres; 9,246 acres in crops; idle land. 1,513 acres; plowable, 2.285 acres; woodland, 2,169 acres; all oth­ er acres. 2,095; woodland not used for pasture, 508; all other lands in farms, 1,569; farm land and buildings, $1,­ 223,675; all farm buildings. $555,750; farmers' dwellings, $204,050; farm machinery and tools, $110,065. Maple Grove township has 189 farms of 20,487 acres; 9,948 acres in crops; idle land, 1,029; plowable, 2,­ 862 acres; woodland, 1,638; all other acres. 2,674; woodland not used for pasture. 455; all other land in farms, 1,751; farm land and buildings, $1,­ 055,730; all farm buildings, $568,150; farmers' dwellings, $281,100; farm machinery and tools, $128,110. This report is compiled as of April 1. 1930, and covers statistics compil­ ed for 1929. During 1929 there were 103 crop failures in Castleton town­ ship and 80 in Maple Grove. This is conceded to be a most excellent show­ ing considering the- extremely dry weather prevailing during 1929. Independents Add Two Wins To String Dixie Oils Of Charlotte. And Lansing Police Department Team Are.^Latest Victim*. The Independents added two more victories to their season's record dur­ ing the past week. At the Farmers’ Rally at the Hastings fair grounds last Friday afternoon, they were hoked up with the Dixie Oils of Char­ lotte and it was a battle royal for several innings, but the Eaton coun­ ty nine failed to stand the pace and weakened in the final stages of the game, letting Nashville score two runs in the sixth, two in the seventh and four in the eighth, to win by a count of 9 to 4. Archie Martin did the hurling for Nashville and was hit rather freely, but he kept the blows well scattered and the Dixies were unable to tally more than one run in any one inning. Sunday afternoon the Lansing Po­ lice Department team appeared at Thornapplc lake, but were entirely "off their beat” and were shut out by a score of 11 to 0. Hardy, starting on the mound for Lansing, had the locals puzzled with an underhand de­ livery for a few Innings, but they got their eye on the ball in the fourth and Hardy was smothered under a barage of two-baggers. He retired in favor of Crofts, but the latter had nothing with which to stem the tide and the batting orgy continued until the cloee of the game. A. Martin and Yarger were the battery for Nashville, and Archie had a little too much steam for the "cops,” letting them down with four scattered singles and get­ ting eleven strike-outs. For the coming week end the In­ dependents have two games that will demand their best efforts and should be well worth seeing. On Sunday af­ ternoon they get their first chance at the Hastings team, and the game will be played at the Barry county fair grounds. It’s needless to say that neither team will be subdued without a hard fight. On Labor Day, Monday, the Inde­ pendents will be back at the Thorn­ apple lake grounds for another game with the Civic Colored Leaguers of Battle Creek. This is the aggrega­ tion that gave us such a close game on the last day of the Homecoming celebration, and they are coming with a determination to get revenge. Both of these games will start at 3:00 o'clock, and none of the local fans will want to miss them.

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 3,1931 "I Will Not What a wonderful Pail Thee” promise came to Joshua when the responsibility of leading the children of Israel to the promised land was turned over to him: "As I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee!" There seemed to be . an almost impossible task before him, that of leading his people, whose fear had previously caused them to turn from this same undertaking; to con­ quer a land inhabited by a warlike people Standing in the way of their progress was Jericho, a walled city. But, strengthened by the assurance of divine guidance and protection. Joshua did not hesitate. The result of his efforts stands as a proof of whst happens to one who listens for the voice of God and unhesitatingly obeys Sometimes we too are placed in a position of responsibility, and may wonder how we can do that which we have been given to do. The same ever present intelligence, God, which governed Joshua, is present to guide and strengthen us; and if we turn to this glorious Being, our Father-Moth­ er God, we also can gain the assur­ ance that came to Joshua. As I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.” Can we ask for more than this? A proof as good as that given to Joshua will be ours if we-will listen, as he did, for the voice of God and go for­ ward in unhesitating obedience to it. •Today, as never before, through the consecration of a gentle New Eng­ land woman, Mary Baker Eddy, this understanding of God as an ever present help, of the all-knowing Mind, who meets each need of those who understanding!}’ turn to Him for help, bas been made available to all. Through the study of her writings any sincere seeker of the truth can gain the assurance of God's unfailing care. The understanding of God as ever present intelligence, the Mind which is Love, destroys fear and doubt, and enables one to meet and destroy the belief that evil is power. Speaking of what the understanding of God as omnipresent Love does for us, ;Mrs. Eddy writes In "Miscellan­ eous Writings” (p- 307): "What a glorious inheritance is given to us through the understanding of omni­ present Love! More we cannot ask; more we do not want; more we can­ not have. This sweet assurance is the-’Peace, be still’ to all human fears, to suffering of every sort.” Students of Christian Science learn that they need to be ever listening to the . voice of Truth, which gives them the assurance of God's presence and care, and renders them conscious of their real selfhood, the reflection of Spirit. Today there seems to be so many temptations that would try to lead us away from the straight and narrow path, so many suggestions that evil is power, that we need to be constantly alert to our need of dependence upon the ever present divine Mind, an un­ derstanding of which lifts our thoughts above the miasma of the carnal mind. The knowledge that there is ever present intelligence, di­ vine Mind, which can guide and lift us above temptation, causes us to face each day with a quiet confidence, knowing that God will keep us from all fear and the allurements of the carnal mind, and cause our day's ac­ tivities to be harmonious and produc­ tive of much good. The -one who accomplished so much. Christ Jesus, said that of his own self he could do nothing; that it was the Father who did the works. His know­ ledge of the •ever-presence of the one intelligence, omnipotent good, controling and governing all that is real; his steadfast listening to Gpd’s voice and obedience thereto, enabled him to prove mortality a myth, and man the perfect reflection of perfect Life, God. The Master's earnest prayer was that all might be at-one with thia- ever present intelligence, divine Love, even as he was ever at-one with IL His words, "He that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that never fail him nor forsake him, but also point out how he was ever able er of divine Love .and to be certain news There are a good many small towns that have five and ten cent stores or stores that carry, a five and ten ccm counter, but there are few small cities the size of Nashville that can boast of as complete a five-cents-to-onedollar store as the one located on Main street directly north of the Fed­ eral building. This store is decorated with a fine looking sign that those who run may read, gives the name of the firm operating same, and tells just what the store Is. The large dis­ play windows are always attractively decorated and the interior of the store will stand a close comparison with any large city stores in the same line, the stock is.complete, well arranged, and the customer whether bent on buying the cheapest or the most ex­ pensive article in the store, receives courteous service, which is one thing, and incidentally something you al­ most beg for. in a five-and-ten locat­ ed in a burg a few miles out on M-79. This latter isn’t hearsay, but an ex­ perienced fact ample of the farmer, who has raised his efficiency and reduced his operat­ ing costs to adjust himself to changed conditions. • Out of the 6.5 cent dealer margin, about one-half cent is profit, and about three cents goes for driver and wagon expense.

The most serious problem in poul­ try housing is the protection of birds analysis of egg production records in comparison with temperature charts show that egg production is mater­ ally reduced by either extremely low or high temperatures. The problem of housing resolves itself not into one of maintaining a constant tempera­ ture, but into a problem of smoothing out the fluctuations of temperature in order to give the birds a chance to adjust themselves to the changes. The Agricultural Engineering and Poultry Extension Departments have designed a house which will meet this problem, and the other involved fac­ tors of a good house, in an economic manner. The object of the design of the Michigan shed type poultry house was to build a house as convenient and cheap as possible, and yet con­ structed well enough to secure an economic gain in production which will warrant a slightly increased cost, if any, as compared to houses of other design. The Agricultural Engineering and Poultry Extension Departments are again conducting a series of demon­ strations on these houses. A house will be built on the farm of Harry Cheeseman, of Baltimore township, on Sept. 24th and 25th. On the after­ noon of the second day a general meeting will be held with Mr. Foster, County Agricultural Agent. in charge. At that time the Agricul­ tural Engineer and the Poultry Spe­ cialist will discuss this particular type of house with respect to the reasons for the construction. Any questions pertaining to the engineering or poul­ try fields will be answered at that time. Work Is under way for the organi­ zation of the Barry county Home Economics Extension groups. The project for the 1931-32 season will be Second Year Home Furnishing with Miss Gertrude Reis, Michigan State coUege, as Extension Specialist.. Twenty groups are already organ­ ized with their chairman and leaders elected. County Agent Foster has been notified by Michigan State col­ lege that more groups will be allowed to organize this fall. Any group of ladies, not now organized, should get In touch with the County Agent's of­ fice immediately. A county organization meeting will be held soon and it will be necessary for every group taking up the work this season to be repres-nted at the meeting by their chairman, secretary and leaders. * Hom6*Economics Extension work has been very popular in Barry coun­ ty during the past years. It is hoped that more ladies will take advantage of the project given this year. State’s Best Grain Growers Get Prizes Leading grain growers of Michigan will compete for top honors at the Michigan State, Fair in the Ira H. Butterfield memorial contest, spon­ sored annually by the crops depart­ ment at M. S. C. Yield per acre and commercial value of the grain will be the basis of awards, rather than the value of the crop for seed purposes. This gives the contest unusual practical value in picking the real leaders among state farmers. The three classes of the event in­ clude wheat, oats and barley, with 22 different awards in each class. Fields entered must consist of five acres or more, with any farmer in the state eligible to file entry with his local county agricultural agent or the col­ lege crops department. Entries will close on August 31, to give time to prepare for judging at the state fair. Ira H. Butterfield, for whom the event is named, was a pioneer in Michigan agricultural circles. He served for many years as secretary of tbe state fair, and was prominent in many other agricultural organiza­ tions. The Very Latest QUR ambulance is a modern and complete Packard Eight.

Men wore whiskers, square hats, ascot ties, red flannel under­ wear, big watches and chains, chop­ ped wood for stoves, bathed once a week, drank 10 cent whisky and 5 cent beer, rode bicycles, buggies or sleighs, went in for politics, worked twelve hours a day and lived to a ripe old age. Stores burned coal-oil lamps, carried everything from a needle to a plow, trusted everybody, never took an inventory, placed orders for goods a year in advance and always made money. 1931 Today women wear silk stockings, short skirts, low shoes, no corsets, an ounce of underwear, have bobbed hair, smoke, paint and powder, drink cocktails, play bridge, drive cars, have pet dogs and go in for politics.

Credit will be given to girls taking home economics toward high school graduation and will be accepted to­ ward college entrance requirements. The work will be taught with a textbook for reference, but the ac­ tual learning will be by doing. Girls will be able to do summer projects in the home under the super­ vision of Miss Wood. These projects give a girl an opportunity to put into practical use tn the home those things learned in school. Among the pro­ jects are: the canning of food, making of garments, and decorating of a room. Miss Ruth Freegard, State Super­ visor of Vocational Home Economics work in Michigan, will be here today to look over the situation and make recommendations in regard to equip­ ment for the house. The housing of the home economics department in a separate house is a practice that is growing very rapidly. Over two hun­ dred such units were added to the ap­ proved list in the United States last year.

September is the best month for control work in checking the peach tree borer, a pest which does more preventable damage to the Michigan peach crop than any other insect, ac­ cording to entomologists at the Mich­ igan State college. Thousands of peach trees are said to be lost In the state each year as the result of the work of the borer, which is known Jo scientists as Sanninoidea exitosa. The pest is a native , one which many years ago transfer-: red its attention from wild. cherry and wild plum to the cultivated stone fruits, noticeably the peach. The i presence of the borers is first indicat­ ed by brownish borings on the bark,! but later the gummy mixture of saw­ dust which one associates with the I work of this insect begins to accumu­ late. The old control method of digging the borers from the peach tree has largely been supplanted in recent years by a newly developed treatment which involves the use of a substance known as paradichlorobenzene. It is applied in a ring around the tree, from one to three inches from it, and in amounts which are regulated by the size of the tree trunk.

Mrs. Lovina Berdan returned last Friday to her home in Samia, Ont.. Canada, after visiting about two weeks at the farm home of Geo. F. Evans and his mother. It has been about 25 years since they had seen each .other, as Mr. Evans came to Michigan to work during his youth. Although born in Michigan, Mr. Ev­ ans* schooldays were spent in Can­ ada on a farm adjoining Mrs. Ber­ dan’s. He kept Mrs. Berdan busy an­ swering questions about their mutual young friends. She took a great deal of pleasure visiting here and seeing many of our nearby towns, and also attended the Ionia and Marshall fairs. The many curves in our gbod roads were a surprse land delight to her, for they still have more square corners on their roads. Shook To “Shook ’Em.

Our readers have no doubt noticed the display advertising of the Park Avenue Hotek- Detroit, running in our columns, in addition to which ye editor would like to add a word or two of his own. The Park Avenue Hotel, most con­ veniently located on Park Avenue, at Sproat, is conceded on all sides to be the moat outstanding hotel value in Detroit. The rooms are large and comfortable, every one with bath (tub and shower)—the finest of service— everything new and modern—and on­ ly a few short blocks from the busi­ ness, shopping and theater district. Rates: Single. >2. $2.50 and S3: double, $3, $4 and $5. The dining room service—our word for it—is un­ surpassed anywhere, and at moderate within-reason prices. You may rest assured that the Park Avenue Hotel will measure up to all one could desire in a homey, cheerful, w’eii-conducted place to live when business or pleasure calls you to the Michigan metropolis.

Time spent in selecting seed corn from the field before the corn is kill­ ed by frost will help to eliminate the undesirable types of plants in next year’s crop, according to the farm crops department at Michigan State college. The plant which bears the ear of corn furnishes at least 50 per cent of the inherited characteristics possess­ ed by the seed, and, if thq corn plant la weak or diseased, it is quite proba­ ble that the ear from that stalk will furnish seed that will also produce undesirable plants. It is impossible to tell what kind of a plant produced an ear after the ear has been separat­ ed from the stalk and husked. Field selections should be made w’hen 50 per cent of the stalks have lost their green color and the early maturing ears are well dented and hard. Such ears may have lots of moisture in them but they will dry out without shrinking. Ears which are less fully developed will usually furnish seed that will grow but it is difficult to dry such ears. The tendency for corn to smut var­ ies greatly among individual plants. Some strains of corn plants have smutty ears and some have smut on­ ly on the tassels or on portions of the stalk. Seed from smutty ears will firoduce plants which have the same endency. All the seed needed for next year can be selected in a few hours, and the farmer will be sure of vigorous seed which will test and yield welL Mrs. Jess*.

Watson, the builder of the first telephone ever made, to specifica­ tion* drawn up by Alexander Graham Bell. “I say Jess than a man’s life, for I was twenty-one when I made the first telephone tor Bell, and I am still going strong."

Pioneer days of Michigan 'way back to 1831 will be re-lived again by citizens of Battle Creek in their forthcoming Centennial celebration, October 3 to 7, inclusive. Elaborate plans have been made for this city’s one hundredth birthday party. A historical and educational pageant or procession will be one of the main features of the five-day Cen­ tennial program. On Saturday, October 3, a boulder will be dedicated to the memory of Hiram Moore, inventor of the first harvester-combine in 1836. The bould­ er has been placed at the entrance to the 30-acre field where, in July, 1838, Hiram Moore with his strange-looking harvester-combine cut and threshed 1,100 bushels of wheat in one day. This field is located one mile north of Climax, Mich., eight miles southwest of Battle Creek. Saturday afternoon, a state-wide air meet and aircraft show will be held at Kellogg Airport­ Pioneer Scenes Depicted. The Centennial pageant—some four miles in length and including more than 100 floats depicting various pio­ neer scenes—will be held Monday af­ ternoon, October 5. That evening, 200 pioneers of the city and county will be honored at the Sanitarium Union Building. Tuesday and Wednesday, October b and 7. a pageant entitled "The Re­ turn of the Pioneers” will be staged in a natural amphitheater of 50 acres on the banks of the Kalamazoo River in the southeastern section of the city. Here. 250 actors from Battle Creek and Ceresco will re-enact pioneer life as it was lived 100 years ago in Michigan. The various phases through which agriculture has passed since the days of the hand cradle for harvesting grain will be shown. Wheat and oth­ er grains have already been planted in this natural amphitheater, ready for harvesting during the two-day pageant. An oldtime pioneer wed­ ding will feature this pageant Host To Thousands. In the historical pageant on Mon­ day. October 5, various modes of pio­ neer life will be depleted, including going to church of a Sunday in olden days, pioneer farm kitchen scene, pio­ neer blacksmith shop with two "smiths" repairing a wagon wheel on a float, the old "deestrick" school­ house, the old meeting house and oth­ er scenes. * Battle Creek will be host to thou­ sands of visitors during its "birthday” party, October 3 to 7. Farmer* To Gather At Charlotte Friday In Charlotte on Friday will occur an important gathering of farmers when the National Farm Loan asso­ ciations for Barry and Eaton coun­ ties will convene there to hear an ad­ dress by an officer of the Federal Land Bank of St. Paul, as principal speaker, and to consider problems af­ fecting the operation of these organi­ zations in the making of long term loans under the Land Bank plan H.

Giles Shepard, a pioneer of Barry county, passed away Friday morning at his home in Nashville, after a brief Illness, aged 87 years, nine months and 19 days. The deceased was born in Dryden, Tompkins county, New York, and liv­ ed there until 16 years of age, when he came to Oakland county to reside with an uncle. Later he came to Middleville and ran the stage coach between that point and Kalamazoo. He attended college at Kalamazoo and taught school for many years in Barry’, Kent and Allegan counties. In boyhood and early life he was a member of the Baptist church, later joining the Congregational church, and in late years the Catholic. He located on a farm near Cale­ donia and resided there until 15 years ago. when he retired and moved to Hastings, and later to Nashville. In 1877 he was united in marriage to Mary Ann Schickler of Caledonia, who preceded him in death eight years ago. He leaves to mourn their loss, a daughter, Mrs. Glenn Steele of Nashville, a grandson, Voyle Steele, and many friends. Funeral services for Mr. Shepard were held from the home at 1 o'clock Sunday afternoon, with Rev. Owens of Battle Creek officiating, and Mrs. Pauline Lykins sang Burial was made in Lakeview cemetery, and the bearers were E. L. Kane, Vera Staup, E. L. Appelman, H. W. Wairath, Peri Johnson and EHwin Nash. able. The nation's crop is placed at 18,725,000 bushels as compared with 21,907,000 bushels harvested last year. Sugar beets have withstood drought conditions better than other field crops and the indicated production is 412,000 tons, which is an average of 7.5 tons per acre. Potato Prospects Poor. Heat and drought have greatly low­ ered Michigan's potato prospects. Sections that have been favored with rains have a fair setting of tubers, but they are small in size and depend­ ent upon more moisture soon if they are to reach marketable quality. Many fields are already past further improvement. The outlook is best in the northern half of the state. Pros­ pects are poor in Minnesota and North Dakota, somewhat doubtful in Wisconsin, and rather poor In Maine and Pensylvania where late blight prevails quite generally and where cha crop is ripening more or less prema­ turely. The total production for the United States is estimated at 361,­ 036,000 bushels as compared with 343,236,000 bushels in 1930. With the existing unemployment situation and consequent low buying power of con­ sumers, the price outlook is less fav­ orable than last year. Michigan peaches and apples are far more plentiful than in any recent year. There is about 56 per cent of a full crop of pears, 60 per cent of a crop oT grapes, 62 per cent of a crop of plums, and 70 per cent of a melon crop. Prices are low and the quality of all fruits is excellent. This is a year when householders can econo­ mize through extensive home running, and thereby assist Michigan growers in disposing of their abundant fruit crop.

The tramp steamer which used to ply to the strange ports of the w’orld seeking cargoes probably soon will join the sailing vessel in zxear-extinction. A calculation made in London shows that liners, both passenger and cargo, running on regular routes and time, as contrasted with the tramp, comprise about 70 per cent of the world's tonnage. Liners totaled but 36 per cent of the world's tonnage in don, where, outside the timber trade, there now are vary few tramps as compared with pre-war days. Nearly everybody prefers to send goods in "parcels” up 10.900 tons or more on one of the regular line ships. Ca­ nadian grain, for instance, used to cross the Atlantic and Pacific in tramp steamers.

Conference At Grand Rapids Closes The ninety-sixth session of .the Michigan annual conference, held In the First • Methodist church. Grand Rapids, concluded Monday with the reading of the appointments. From the first meeting on Tuesday night. September 8, featuring the powerful address of United States Senator Ar­ thur Vandenberg, to the closing Sun­ day evening sermon by Bishop Titus Lowe of the Portland Area, the whole conference was packed full with words of inspiration, challenge and disturbing facts. Among the outstanding speakers were Bishop Lowe, who gave the four o'clock lectures dealing with the problems of the minister and the church. Dr. S. M. Rice, who in bis inimitable way, gave his now famous and familiar lecture entitled, “What Of It?” During an hour and a half, despite the fact that his audience was sweltering in th» terrific heat, he held their interest, making them shake with laughter and then to turn within and think soberly and serious­ ly. Also Dr. Donald Tippet, pastor of The Church of AU Nations in New York’s lower East Side. This was a speech that stirred to the depths the heart of all who listened as he told about the extent and complexity of the crime situation. There were quite a number of changes in appointments, although in our immediate vicinity all the for­ mer pastors returned, with the ex­ ception of Hastings Circuit The boundaries of the districts were changed inasmuch as the conference voted to reduce the number of dis­ tricts from six to five. The new dis­ trict is to be called the Albion-Lans­ ing District and takes the place of the Albion district and part of what was T.ringing Rural Carriers Meet. Members of the Rural Carriers as­ sociations and Ladies' Auxiliaries of eight counties assembled at the Belle­ vue Baptist church Saturday to hear reports in the evening on the nation­ al convention held recently in Cali­ fornia, and among the two hundred or more in attendance were Nash­ ville's three rural carriers. Coy Brumm, Ed Hafner and Chas. Higdon. Counties invited to participate were Kalamazoo. Calhoun. Branch, Hills­ dale, Jackson, Ingham. Barry, Ionia and Eaton. Supper was served by the Bellevue Grange. Reports on the national convention were to be given by W. G. Armstrong, president of the National Rural Car­ riere* association, Mrs. W. G. Arm­ strong, Mrs. Geo. Morton and J. H. Bachellor. Responding to the invitation of their Most Excellent Chief, Mrs. Gladys Miller, a score of Pythian Sis­ ters assembled at Cole's Landing at Thornapple Lake on Friday last, en­ joying a picnic supper on the hotel lawn, after which they were enter­ tained at cards in the hotel lunch room and confectionery which Mrs. MUIer is operating this season, and Mrs. Miller also served the company with refreshing soft drinks.

Ddmmy candy made its debut in the United States at the forty­ eighth annual convention of the Na­ tional Confectioners' association which closed in Chicago June 5. Dis­ play candy of this type was first put on the market in England about tWo years^ago and it ia estimated that ap­ : proximately 4,000,000 pieces of dum­ ] my candy are now exhibited in win­ ’ dows there. Experiments are being ' made with dummy ice cream, crack­ J <ers. wafers, various kinds of nuts and anything along the confectionery ' line, it was stated by the manufactur­ I ers. Towns in Africa and countries < touching the torrid zone as well as ' Jsouthern cities in the United States are especially. interested In this per­ < manent means of displaying candy, > for it is said that candy discolors and melts within two hours under the sun’s rays. "Handy package" candy, which is sold for 5 and 10 cents, is gaining favor with the American pub­ lic, it was learned at the convention. The increased use of cellulose paper for wrapping all kinds of confection­ ery points to a possible time when the small boy at the crossroads store will no longer choose two pieces of this and three of that to be handed over the counter in a paper bag. He will have to buy a bag of this kind or of that. In machines for bagging this candy, the colored beans, or corn, or peanuts, are fed into a hopper at the top, poured dowrf into transparent paper tubes which are automatically divided into sacks by a device which clamps a metal sealing strip'simul­ taneously at the top of one sack and the bottom of the next. Confection­ ery sales In the United States declin­ ed only 2 per cent in quantity during 1930, as compared with 1929. accord­ ing to a report by the United States Department of Commerce released at the convention. These figures, ttye re­ port said, make a favorable showing for the confectionery industry “when taken in connection with the general business conditions and the unfavor­ able weather: high temperature and drought of last year.” Discovery that the Gulf Stream has increased in extent to an unusual de­ gree this year has been made by in­ vestigators on the United States pa­ trol boat General Green which, after being engaged four months in explo­ ration work in northern waters, sail­ ed for Boston, said recent dispatches from St. Johns, N. F The explorers, including Commander Ricketts and Mr. Olaf Mosby, formerly associated with Dr. Fridjof Nansen in oceano­ graphic work in Norway, further dis­ covered that, owing to the exception­ ally high temperatures, the. cold arc­ tic waters had receded much farther north. Remarkably few icebergs were seen. Encroachment of the Gulf Stream unon the western slope of the Newfoundland banks was found be­ tween the forty-first and forty-sec­ ond parallels to longitude 46 west, then turning sharply north and mak­ ing another encroachment toward the eastern slope. Temperature at one point in the area was 20 degrees high­ er than last year. The General Green expedition started north in July to study ocean currents, salinity, tem­ peratures at various depths and the ice drift between Newfoundland banks and waters as far north as Hudson Strait. .Records of tempera­ tures and salinity at various depths were taken at 122 stations and 2000 soundings made in many areas be­ tween Labrador and Greenland never previously surveyed. No field of ice was encountered on the Labrador coast, and only 90 icebergs were found in Hudson Strait. Two hundred icebergs were sighted on the Green­ land coast while anchored against the Ivagatut Glacier. Three members of the Courtauld expeditions, surveying the Greenland ice cap, arrived on board. They were Mr. James M. Scott, Mr. Andrew Stephenson, and Lieut. Martin Lindsay. All had trav­ eled 400 miles afoot over the Ice caps. They had made exceptional time and were in excellent condition. Com­ mander Ricketts, beyond stating that fine weather had been encountered, that the crew had enjoyed the best of health, and that the program had been completed, was rttlcent regard­ ing details of work as first reports must be made to headquarters. Klise Memorial chapel at East Con­ gregational church. Grand Ranids, was closed in August to permit the installation of the beautiful stained windows which replacj the temporary windows placed when the chapel was opened last spring. The windows are the gift of Albert B. Klise in memory of his son, Bernard Shippey Klise. who died last year. They are done in thirteenth century style and have the lovely, jewel-like colors of glass, of that period. They were designed and made for the chapel by Wilbur Her­ bert Burnham of Boston, an artist whoee work in stained glass in widely known. Mr, Burnham did the win­ dows for the Riverside church in New York City, of which Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick is pastor.

The sawdust rings at Los Angeles ] are filled by youthful performers. A : grand and gorgeous procession pre- . cedes acts of spectacular brilliancy, . and it’s all free. Thousands see per- । formances. It’s a neighborhood per- । formance of the Traveling Play- । ground Circus which for three years j has been one of the main features in । the summer program of the Los An- । gelLS Playground and Recreation De- । partmenL Last year 50,000 persons . stepped aside from their household ■ and social occupations to see and heai 5000 participants appear in what is surely one of the biggest little shows on earth. This year, attend­ ances indicated that the total num­ ber of visitors would exceed 100.000 for the summer circuit of city play­ grounds. And no one will have paid a cent for admission. It’s all free. When the circus approaches a play­ ground in the midst of a sunny sum­ mer morning, it is greeted by a horde of eager children who have long wait­ ed for the coming of the sawdust ring to their neighborhood. With many helping hands the work of unpacking the brilliant circus wagon, setting up j the striped tent and bright equipment Is made easy, and before long the equipment is made ready for the ev­ ening's performance. Then comes the rehearsal, under the supervision of the circus director. For weeks, preparations have been under way for thia element of the program. Play­ ground directors have gleaned the show talent from their groups of charges: little boys have practiced how to' be daring Wild West riders; little girls have learned how to be charming heroines and bareback rid­ ers; p rhaps a few have thought about being clowns. So that when the tent is finally erected, an enthus­ iastic troupe stands attired and ready for the great show. In the cool of the evening, friends and relatives gather to see the performance which is start­ ed by a brief band concert. Follow­ ing this a fanfare from the band her­ alds the entrance of the ringmaster dressed in a bright red coat, white riding trousers, and a tall black silk hat. With a long whip, and much cracking of it, his presence is duly important. He signals the beginning of the grand march. And thereafter comes the show; trained animal acts? clowning, tumbling, tight rope walk...g, an elephant act, fashion show, pony ballet and horse act, tap danc­ ing, a Spanish fiesta. Wild West show, the fire department act, and a chariot race. Here is a circus with only makr-believe animals, of which there are six horses, one elephant, and one bull. But that condition only offers an opportunity for more participants Everyone wants to be a and fun. horse but, of course, the opportunity to display this type of ability is limit­ ed. The performances are held every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday dur­ ing July and August. . Children are the performers: the staff consisting of a director, who is the ringmaster, a workman to set up equipment, and playground directors.

C. en very ill on Tuesday of last week, as reported in The News, and taken in the Hess ambulance *to Pennock hos­ pital at Hastings Wednesday evening, and died there Wednesday evening of the third attack of heart trouble. The body was brought to the Hess funeral home and remained there until the funeral service was held Sunday afternoon at the same place. This death seems peculiarly sad, as Mr. Munson had anticipated a pleas­ ant time visiting his friends, and also very sad that his wife and son could not come from California to attend the last sad rites. Mrs. Munson was 'formerly Mrs, Rose Fashbaugh Lyon of West Ver­ montville, and was married to Mr. Munson ten years ago. The son, Floyd Munson, and his wife, who was Miss Wilda Gorthy, were former resi­ dents of Nashville, both graduates of the Nashville high school, and botn talented musicians. They have a daughter, 14, and a son, 12, both born in Battle Creek. ' Mr. Munson was sixty-three years of age, and was born in Ohio. Rev. W. D. Hayes, pastor of the Evangelical church, conducted the funeral service. Mrs. Pauline Lykins sang two appropriate hymns, and the body was laid to rest tn the Nash­ ville cemetery beside his former wife, Mrs. Emma Ackett Munson. Bear­ ers were Charles Ayers. John Springett, Martin Graham, Will Hanes, Ed Keyes and Ed Faught. ArrangeMany expressions of sympathy are heard for the bereaved family and friends, on account of Mr. Munson's death so far away from his nearest and dearest ones. Also many friends have said how much they had enjoy­ ed seeing Mr. Munson back in the old home town, and having little visits and calls in their homes with him. He was tenderty cared for in the home of his sister-in-law, Mrs. Ella Feighner, and son, Floyd Feighner, and both physicians attended him, until he was taken to the hospital. Those from away who were here to attend the funeral of Mr. Munson were: Mr. and Mrs. Henry Fashbaugh of Smyrna, Mr. and Mrs. Grant Fashbaugh of San Francisco. Calif., who were visiting in Michigan. Mrs. Claude Kennedy and daughter. Miss Thelma, of Hastings, Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Mix of Kalamo, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Orno, Mrs. Minnie Wrightman, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Louzaway of Battle Creek. Mrs. Lillian Louzaway of Jackson. Mr. and Mrs. Vern Ackett of Lansing. Mr. and Mrs. Ray Nye of Hastings, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Griffin ,of Sunfield.

Lodges A total of $168,421,758.20 handled during the course of the fiscal year by the office of S Treasurer Howard C. Lawrence in conduct of the financial affairs of the state government according to his first annual report just issued. Of this sum, $37^7138732 was oa hand at the beginning of the fiscal year, July 1» 1930. Total cash re­ ceipts reached $131,150,490.88 during the year, while the total cash dis­ bursements for all purposes were $133,793,025.18, leaving $34,628,733.02 on hand at the close of business, June 30, 1931. The report contains an interesting list of the state depositaries, showing their balances at the end of the year, together with a statement of the se­ curity held by the treasurer in con­ nection with each deposit. Through another statement, which is made a part of the report, discov­ ery can quickly be made, concerning each county, of the amount of state tax paia and the amount of primary school funds returned to the county. It shows that of the counties of the state, only twenty-one paid more state tax than was returned through the medium of the primary school fund, and exclusive of gasoline tax collections, automobile license fee re­ ceipts, and other state revenues. The treasurer is custodian of the sinking fund investments which to­ tal, according to the report, $24,196,­ 900.00. Proclamation Qn Fire Prevention By The Governor. Each year the fire loss in lives and in property is appalling—nearly five hundred million dollars and thousands of lives. Every year brings a loss which is a serious drain upon our natinal life. It is indeed time that care­ lessness, better fire protection and prevention should reduce the tremen­ dous loss that this country suffers ev­ ery year. No one can afford to be careless with fire. Our own state shares this loss with all other states. Yet, the larger part of this fire waste could be avoided if a serious effort were made to elimi­ nate the fire danger. Therefore, I. Wilber M. Brucker, Governor of the State of Michigan, by authority in me vested, do desig­ nate and proclaim the period from October 4th to 10th, 1931, as Fire Prevention Week, and I suggest that the citizens of the state take an ear­ nest, active interest in the occasion. All civic organizations, business asso­ ciations, school authorities, women’s clubs and all other bodies Interested in public welfare should assist tn fur­ thering this important observance to the best of their ability. Given under my hand and the Great Seal of the state, this 25th day of September, in the year of our Lord, One Thousand Nine Hundred Thirtyone. and of the Commonwealth, the ninety-fifth. Wilber M.

Scores Of State Laws Went Into Effect On Friday Scores of new state laws, many of them having wide effect, became op­ erative last Friday. Bills not given immediate effect by the legislature become effective 90 days after the close of the session. The date this year was September 18, Of broad interest is the new act making Eastern Standard the legal time for the state. The supreme court and lower courts will adopt the new time, as will public offices. Al­ though there is nothing to prevent communities from using Central time, they will be using time not recogniz­ ed as legal. New laws of importance include an act putting contract motor vehicle carriers on the same free basis as comnion carriers; an election code which abolished the presidential pref­ erence primary—which would have been held next April save for the re­ pealing law—and lays down more stringent niles for recounts, registra­ tion and other election procedure. Michigan now has a revised penal code including acts designed to curb the activities of gangsters, kidnap­ pers and racketeers; reapportionment of the legislatives districts, making 17 instead of 13, of which five are ex­ clusively in Wayne county and a sixth is shared with Oakland, but leaving most out state districts unchanged; a measure providing for the absorptiop of township highways through an ap­ propriation of $2,000,000 and more each year hereafter until an annual grant to the counties of $4,000,000 has been reached; the Dykstra act pres­ cribing the amount of state aid to be given municipalities for highway im­ provements; the Darin-Miller law, providing for permanent grand juries in the larger counties: a general game law revision; an airplane weight tax law and a number of new regulations relative to the real estate agents, cosmetologists and other subjects. Attend Educational Meeting At Detroit Mr. and Mrs. Don Hess of The Hess Funeral Home, have returned from Detroit where they attended the sec­ ond annual joint conference on Busi­ ness Procedure, a national movement for business education. "The joint conference uses a very effective method of Instruction," declaAd Mr. and Mrs. Hess. "Instead of dry lectures it has engaged a com­ pany of professional actors to present the Ideas in dramatic form." Traffic problems of the funeragdirector, the importance of advertising, the architecture of the modern fun­ eral home, improvement of public re­ lations and principles of merchandise display, were among the subjects tak­ en up by the conference. The greater public interest in fun­ eral goods is due, according to con­ ference experts, to the development of newspaper and magazine advertising by manufacturers and funeral direc- lie’s attitude toward death. ' Nowa­ days, they point out. people wish to make the last rites memorable not so much for their pain as for their beau­ ty and consolation. The joint conference is covering the entire country with Its novel educa­ tional technique and is meeting with even greater response among progres­ sive funeral directors than in its first national tour last year, according to Mr. and Mrs. Hess.

Foster, Miss Summer Gone, Independents Lose Miss Autumn Here, To Hastings Sunday Miss Winter Soon Final Game Of The Season Played At Excessive Heat, Together With Scant Rains, Marks A Season Of Extrecne Dryness In Most Sections Of Michigan. With the strains of “There’!] Be a Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight" still ringing in her ears, Miss Sum­ mer finished her season's engagement and turned over her duties to her successor. Miss Autumn, who official­ ly arrived Wednesday, but is not re­ vealing any of her plans. Miss Summer, who had been so chary with regard to moisture, re­ lented a little toward the latter part of her regime, and there has been a wonderful recovery of pastures, lawns, alfalfa, even the trees and weeds sprucing up under the beneficient effect of the showers and downpours. Creeks, swamps, rivers, even lakes, have taken on new life. Preparation of wheat and oat ground is made much easier. The excessive heat of the last days of summer felt locally, is accompanied by reports of a tornado storm in Wis­ consin, and an earthquake whose ef­ fects were felt principally at Anna. Ohio, where practically every build­ ing was damaged in tremors I as tings about 15 seconds and occurring late Sunday^ The tremors were most noticeable at Cincinnati. Springfield and Lima, Ohio; at Indianapolis, Connersville, Anderson, Liberty and Richmond, Indiana, and in some localities in Northern Kentucky. The disturbance, ^geologists of the Chicago office of thte weather bureau said, were caused by the slipping of strata under the earth's surface. These geological readjustments occur sporadically in the middle west, but no serious damage has resulted dur­ ing the past 100 years because of the relatively rocky formations peculiar to the region. They are not caused by volcanic activity, the geologists said. Rollin T. Chamberlain, professor of geology at the University of Chicago, explained that "faults" or fissures in the earth’s crust and interna] stress caused by sudden variations in tem­ peratures cause the tremors. "The slipping of a stratum is an­ alogous,” Chamberlain said, “to the sudden dropping of bricks when mor­ tar between them disintegrates." From the Grand Rapids office of the Weather Bureau came also the state­ ment that this summer with 33 days of heat registering 90 or more de­ grees, broke all rebords of that bur­ eau whose previous high record was 26 days in 1926. From the same sta­ tion came the further statement that the rainfall had been nearly as light as last year, with the difference to­ talling 6.99 inches. Rainfall so far in September has been 2.87 inches.

It was a rather free-hitting affair, with honors even as far as wielding the bat was con­ cerned, but the locals were not up to their usual form on defensive and are charged with several errors, which were directly responsible for their downfall. Archie Martin worked on the mound for Nashville, with former coach Ed. Johnson receiving. Archie got ten s£rike-outs, but allowed nine safe hits which were bunched to ad­ vantage, Hastings scoring four runs In the second inning, two in the fourth, one in the fifth and one In the sixth. Brown, who has not lost a game this season, did the pitching for Hast­ ings, with Cronkhite catching, and fanned seven men. The locals, how­ ever, solved his delivery for eight safe swats, most of them for extra bases. Hess headed the list with a homer, a triple and a double in four trips to the plate. E. Johnson got a triple and a single, and Bill Martin a double and a single. ________ ’ Nashville scored one run in the first inning, ’ two in the second, one in the third,one _____ In the seventh and one in the ninth. This game was the final one for the Independents and concluded a very successful season, with only three games lost, one to Grand Ledge, one to the Battle Creek Steam Pumps, and one to Hastings. Gov.

An important first page story had to do with the passing of the then preaidant of the United States. James A. Garfield, who had died after 80 days of intense suffering. Another story of about the same length had to do with the subscrip­ tions for the fire sufferers in “the Thumb." Cash 3126.76; clothing 3140; wheat 542.20; potatoes 37.75. ■What was done locally after Pres­ ident Garfield's death to show respect is shown in this issue. On Tuesday morning the sorrowful news of the President’s death was announced on cur streets, and as soon as the news was confirmed, one common senti­ ment of grief was on the lipa of ev­ ery person, irrespective of party. The News office was draped in mourning and before 9 o'clock C. W. Granger’s. C. L. Glasgow’s, L. J. Wheeler’s and C. W. Smith’s stores were appro­ priately draped, 'also the postoffice and hotel. Notwithstanding the assertions of the Hastings papers, diphtheria does prevail at an alarming extent in that city, and the reports that come to us are simply appalling. Tis stated that two deaths occurred on Wednesday ajjd several were not expected to live. The board of health have warned all people who have been exposed to the disease, and children, off the streets, under penalty of arrest. It has also recommended that all collections or congregations of people be avoided, many families have left the city, and others are seriously contemplating doing likewise. The grade at the new bridge is now nearly completed and teams with loads may now cross the new struc­ ture with perfect safety. The recent drouth lasted so long and pasturage has suffered so much in consequence, that farmers have al­ ready commenced foddering their stock. Wheat, potatoes, hogs, and in fact everything a farmer has to -sell, is bringing a price much higher than any had anticipated, and thts high price more than counterbalances the light yield of his produce. At a meeting of the Board of Health on Wednesday evening, Dr. Whitmore was appointed health offic­ er for the balance of the year. John Tuckerman of Assyria says that while he was in Bellevue on Thursday, a man was seen in Dr. Ad­ dington's house, and the citizens, knowing that the doctor and his fam­ ily were away, surrounded the house and soon had the satisfaction of cap­ turing a man who was handsomely dressed out in a suit of Dr. Addipgton's best clothes, and had also in his possession all the silverware he could secrete on his person. Where is our township road com­ missioner and all the overseers of highways? Are they dead or only sleeping? The roads through the township have never been so bad as at the present time. There is hardly a sluice bridge in town that is in good order and very many that are entirely impassable and have been so for a long time. Mrs. Alex. Price was at Jacob Pur­ key’s on Thursday night and as she was about to pass out of the house, opened, as she supposed, a door lead­ ing into the hall, but by mistake upened the cellar door and before a word could be spoken, had fallen down stairs. She struck on her face and hands, breaking both arms just above the wrists. Mrs. Price is quite advanced in age and it will be a long time before she regains the use of her arms, if ever.

The evaporators are both doing a nothing business this season. A new walk has been built along the east side of the Congregational church. A depth of 150 feet has been reach­ ed at the well for the water works, up to the time of going to press. Henry Kunz and Irving Marshall have purchased lots of O. A. Phillips at the end of Washington street, back of the Evangelical church, and are putting up residences on them. A special Masonic train of five cars passed through this place yesterday, enroute for Detroit to attend a Ma­ sonic meeting. Barry’ county prisoners are now kept In the Eaton county jail at Char­ lotte, owing to the Barry county jail being condemned a short time ago by the Board of Supervisors. At the water works well Tuesday morning the rope broke, letting the drill and 1200 pound sinker drop to the bottom of the well, a distance of about 100 feet. Fortunately they had new rope handy and it only took a couple of hours to get the machine working again. The largest and best of Barry coun­ ty fairs had been held that week. One of the events of interest local­ ly was the marriage of Bert Harding and Miss Maude Lapham, both of Ma­ ple Grove, by Rev. F. W. Kring, pas­ tor of the Nashville Evangelical church.

Items Taken From The News of Thursday, September 27, 1906. R. Mayo and a gang of men and teams, has been at work clearing out the mill pond the past week. The work was commenced at the iron bridge and the logs and stumps clean­ ed out to a considerable distance, and the pond will certainly look better than ever before. If enough money could have been secured to clean it out as far as Phillips street, the pond would present a very pretty appear­ ance. The Nashville Creamery was doing a large and increasing business. A. C. Seibert, who recently came from Gery, Saginaw county, was the but­ ter-maker. Six hundred pounds of butter had been churned that day when a News representative called. The creamery had 225 patrons, and the weekly output was about 2,500 pounds of butter. . The leans had cleaned up on the visited George Gribbin Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. D. J.

Barnes, when their daughter, Pearl Irene, was married to Wm. Ling of Grand Rapids. Work on rebuilding the dam is pro­ gressing finely, although a scarcity of men makes the work rather slow. Glenn H.

Attaches of the airport said fortunately the control and radio rooms had been barred to the public, or there might not have been enough gadgets left to fly the plane again. In the frantic scramble for souvenirs, one group of visitors seized a set of knives and forks fur­ nished to the crew by the airport res­ taurant and took them off, believing they had prize keepsakes of the DO-X’s flight. Knobs, signs, electric light bulbs, and even plain, everyday screws, were among the objects tak- Up until Leo V.

Dowling smiled, and, opening the card which accom­ panied them, read: “Better luck next time.” He gasped and fell back. A few hours later he died.

Canar of the Peoples Gas Light & Coke company, who sup­ ervised the experiment. Mr. Canar’s demonstration, using a gas apparatus for air conditioning, was made in co­ operation with the American Gas as­ sociation, which selected a number of homes in various localities for experi­ mental air cooling. The air condi­ tioning equipment is located in the basement of the house. The fresh air from outside is passed from silica gell. a mineral substance which ab­ sorbs moisture from the air and ex­ pels t when heated. The air then passes through a dry filter and over coils of pipe through which cool city water is circulated. First dried and then cooled, it is blown into the house. An unmanned destroyer maneuver­ ed at high speed off San Diego re­ cently and among other things made a 180-degree turn, described by naval officers as the most startling maneuv­ er ever performed by a crewless ship. The vessel was the U. 8. S. Stoddert, a 195-foot craft of 1500 tons. Every­ thing from its whistle to Its rudder was operated by radio from the bridge of the control ship, the des­ troyer Perry, which followed in its wake. Lieut.-Commander Boyd R.

The radio robot was doing'the work of 60 men. For 17 miles the Perry followed its crewless leader. The Stoddert. guid­ ed by mechanical hands and electrical nerves, left a wake of green water as straight as a string, while the Perry, with an experienced seaman at her helm, made flat curves with her wake across the azure blue sea 200 yards behind. “We haven’t tested all the possibilities as yet," Lieut-Command­ er Alexander said, "but they seem as limitless as the imagination."

As the tests had been completed, her crew returned and within 40 minutes she was under way again. OVER HALF OF ALL TELEPHONES ARE IN THE U. S.

A'Very cordial invitation is extended to all who are looking for a place to worship. Our Sunday school session follows immediately after the church service at 12:00 o’clock noon. We aim to have classes for all those who attend. Bring your children and you will find a class for them and one for your­ selves. I wonder if we appreciate the value of religious training. . The Men’s Bible class will have a short business session in connection with its assembly and elect the offic­ ers nominated by the committee or proposed by the group. The nominat­ ing committee meets with the pastor Friday night at 7:30 to draw up a slate. We are very anxious to build this class during the year and each man who is a member is urged to in­ vite other men, not elsewhere con­ nected, to join us in our open discus­ sion of the teachings of Jesus in their relationship to present day problems. The announcement made about the Rally Day service for Sunday morn­ ing has been changed and'the Rally Day and Promotion service will be held Sunday evening at 7:30 o'clock. After consideration it was thought advisable to have a separate hour for this Important service. The detailed program will be printed in this issue, some other place. It is very import­ ant that the children, young people, and adults of the Sunday school be firesent. We also would very much Ike to have the parents there so that they may get some idea of what we are trying to do for their children.

Insects Attack ' Says Tree Planting Michigan Wheat Helps Unemployment Michigan Has Many Thousands Of Growers Are Advised To Use Control Acres Which Car. Be Reforest­ Measures For Hessian Fly And ed This FrtL Grain Weevil. Replanting some of the Michigan lands which should be growing forest trees is a method of employing men who will be released from work when the field crops are harvested, and Professor P. A. Herbert, Michigan State college, says this method has none of the disadvantages of some of the relief measures. The men engaged tau tree planting are working outdoors and are per­ forming a useful task in planting trees which will furnish a profitable crop in future years. The land is not adapted to the growing of field crops and the produce from this land does not competp with the farmers’ culti­ vated areas. ■ Millions of seedling and transplant trees are produced by the college for­ est nurseries and these are sold to Michigan residents for forest plant­ ings at the cost of production. Sev­ eral varieties of conifers are avail­ able at the Dunbar Station for plant­ Ing. Fall plantings are successful !n all parts of Michigan except there is a greater loss in fall plantings of small evergreens in the southern part of the state. Plantings can be made until freezing weather makes it difficult to plant the trees. In addition to the future profit from the trees, there Is an immediate in­ crease of game cover, and the plant­ ings are more attractive to tourists than barren lands. • Those Michigan farmers who grow wheat are warned to observe the Hes­ sian fly free planting dates and to fumigate stored wheat in which weevils have started work, and the entomology department at Michigan State college also issues the warning that the fumigating should be done before the temperature fails below 60 degrees. •: The Hessian fly has .not been very plentiful in the state in the past few years but the entomologists say that early wheat plantings will enable the insects to multiply enough* to cause the 25 per cent damage which occur­ red when wheat was planted too ear­ ly. The correct planting dates vary in different sections of the state. The dates for each county are listed in Special Bulletin 183 which can be ob­ tained from Michigan State college or from the county agricultural agents. Grain weevils have been reported from several sections of the state and appear to be more numerous than us­ ual. If the granaries or storage plac­ es are not fumigated before cold weather, the cost of the work is greater and the results are poorer. . Carbon disulphide is the usual fum­ igant, but it is explosive and inflam­ mable. Insurance policies lapse while it is being used. A new commercial product is as satisfactory as carbon disulphide and is not dangerous to use. Special Bulletin 183 contains complete directions for fumigation. M. E. Sunday School Rally. Sunday.

Accident At Hosmer’s Corners. Hosmer's Corners is making quite a record for automobile accidents. Needs a cast iron traffic, officer there for a trouble warning, but even that wouldn't save a driver from his own heedlessness. Just last week two Lansing men, E. T.

Mrs. Cora W'arner, assisted by Mrs. Minnie Biggs, entertained the Clover Leaf club on Thursday evening, for a jolly evening, which was prefaced by the usdal business session presided over by the president, Mrs. Melissa Showalter. The travelling baskets were brought in. with 38.12 in money. Mrs. Cross’ side lost and will enter­ tain the winners in some way at the next meeting. First on the program was a guessing game. It was a mu­ sical wedding. After that the com­ pany was “ordered” to take their chairs out “under the old apple tree" and found the lawn lighted. There was a blanket against the tree decor­ ated witu goldenrod and other weeds and over it a large cow bell, but they didn’t know what it was all about for some time. There were strains of music which seemed to come nearer, and "here comes the bride" it said, with the sparkiest of bridal parties appearing; the bride tall and wear­ lag hoops and some other things; the groom short, attired tn a swallow­ tailed coat and other articles of wear­ ing apparel. The bride, ordinarily answering to the name of Vada Belson, on this occasion. Angelina Honreka Bobeka Geezer; the groom, us­ ually Bernita Bowman, for the even­ ing, Ebenezer Squeevem. Pauline Bowman was a real locksmith when it came to acting the part of the minis­ ter. She tied the knot with a pad­ lock. Margaret Winger and Marie Ayers were the bridesmaids, and Margaret Gillett was groomsman. Doris Gillett was the father, and Pat­ ricia McNitt the mother, crying cheerfully all through the ceremony. Ada Gage was the flower girl, and Donna Lathrop carried the ring in a cabbage* by way of variety. The wedding music was played by Edna Rich and Vivian Appelman on uku­ leles. After the ceremony all were asked to go along on the wedding trip which was some trip. First stop was at Plymouth Rock (some chick­ en) ; then on to Little Rock (in John Greene's yard); then on to Cork (on a string on Geo. Parrott's porch); across the English Channel (brook) to Toulouse and Toulon. France (a girl wearing * coat too loose and too long); on to Germany and the histor­ ic Rhine (a meat rind suspended on a bridge); tn the Mount of Olives in Palestine (bottle of olives on the Bowman porch); crossing over to Pekin, China (peeking through a hole in a china saucer, fastened to a line in the Biggs' yard); and then back by the Golden Gate to the beloved United States (back door of Warner home); when they joined the bride and groom for toasted marshmallow and hot dog lunch. The hostesses worked out this program of fun; all had a good time, and after a further period of informal conversation de­ parted for their various homes. WEDDINGS. Calida-Thrun. Lawrence Thran and Mias Dorothy Childs drove to Goshen, Ind., Tuesday, accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. John Loso Jr., where they were united in marriage, and returned the same night, but not to their home, which was all tn readiness for housekeeping, where some of their friends expected to find them.

Under tin act of the last legislature the Secretary of State has authority to extend the time limit for purchas­ ing new plates 60 days, and this ex­ tension will be made in connection with the 1932 plates, it was announc­ ed by Secretary of State Frank D. Fitzgerald. One of the effects of this ruling is that motorists who purchase plates Sept. 1, when weight tax fees are cut in half, will be able to use the plates six months instead of four months as’ in previous years. Despite the fact that there are 81,­ 000 fewer automobiles registered in Michigan this year than last, the amount of money collected from the gasoline tax is larger than tn 1930. One of the contributing causes of this increase Js that many motorists who could not have purchased license plates Jan. 1 were able to keep their cars in operation for two months through the extension of the time limit The Department of State has ex­ tended the time for the exchange of old malt tax stamps for the new issue to September 30. After that date, no claims for stamp refunds will be ac­ cepted. It was announced. Recent advices from the conserva­ tion department regarding fish and game licenses is to the effect that the fee system heretofore used at {he time of issuing these licenses has been abolished, and the state will receive the full amount of the license, the dealers issuing the licenses doing so free of any charge. This will result in an increased revenue to the state of about 360,000 annually, available for fish and game protection and de­ velopment. The following is a list of Barry county dealers who will issue licenses: Van M. Leary, Auto Sport Shop, Hastings; Chas. C. Servern, general merchandise.

Declares Newspapers Are Most Effective Advertising Mediums Declaring that the strategic use of newspaper advertising has proven to be one of the most effective means for developing business under the present difficult conditions, W. K. Kellogg, chairman of the board of the Kellogg company of Battle Creek, leading manufacturers of cereal food, said that his company expects to end the year in the strongest position in its of the unusual virtues of newspaper advertising,” said Mr. Kellogg. “We announced last fall our plans for a heavy advertizing expenditure this year in which we planned to use newspapers somewhat as shock troops to concentrate our fire when and where needed. The mobility of this form of advertising has enabled us to meet the varying problems of unset­ tled conditions to excellent, advan­ tage. Right now we are planning two new heavy drives for this fall, us­ ing a stronger concentration of space on two of our products than we have ever before used in newspapers** In spite of all reports to the con­ trary I am still in the draying and general trucking business, and expect to be for some time.

Nashville's Masonic Temple was the scene of an important fraternal event on Thursday last, when Laurel chap­ ter No. 31, Order of the Eastern Star, of Nashville, in the role of hostess, extended the heartiest of welcomes to the Barry county association for its annual meeting, and to its Worthy Grand Matron, Mary E. Covell of Whitehall, and other lesser dignitar­ ies who honored the association with their presence, together with other fraternal visitors from outside Bar­ ry's borders, including visitors from Grand Rapids. Battle Creek, Ionia county, from Dow in Allegan county, from Richland, from Chelsea, Sauga­ tuck. and one visitor. R’. P. Smith, was from Ritzville, Wash., and Nash­ ville. Barry county association in this annual gathering brings into closer intimacy members of the order from the association's five chapters in Nashville, Hastings, Middleville. Hick­ ory Corners and Freeport, gives new Impetus to the chapters through the inspiration and helpfulness gained from the visits of the grand officers, who in this way come in contact with more chapters than could otherwise be accomplished, creating greater un­ iformity in ritualistic work and more enthusiasm in the various chapters. It was an all day meeting with the forenoon given over to associations! business and program, with a midday feast for two hundred and more, with more association business and pro­ gram in the afternoon, a memorial service and exemplification of the ritualistic work by selected officers, with school of instruction by Mrs. Coville, the worthy grand matron. Mrs. Grace Murphy of Hastings, this year's association president, pre­ sided’ ably over the association ses­ sions, which opened at 9:30 a. m. with prayer by the association chap­ lain, Mrs. Munro of Nashville. This was followed by a very fine flag drill by the Middleville chapter. Mrs. Gertrude Martens, worthy matron of Laurel chapter, gave the address of welcome, and Mr. Gladeon Briggs of Middleville the response. Then the worthy grand matron was presented, escorted to the east and given the grand honors, and two oth­ er past grand officers were presented and seated in the east. Mrs. Georgianna Bauer of Hastings and Mrs. Kate Walker of Grand Rapids, both Past Grand Electas. Still others were in­ troduced and given hearty welcomes. Associational interest was centered on Mrs. Georgianna Bauer of Hast­ ings, a past grand Electa, who was endorsed by this association for the elective office of Conductress of the Michigan Grand Chapter, which holds its sixty-fifth annual -session at Grand Rapids Oct. 13-15. This is an elective office in line for the office of worthy grand matron. Through removal by death of the grand conductress of this year, Bess Gardner, there are two officers to elect, grand conduc­ tress and associate grand conductress. Reports were presented from the various chapters of the association and by Mrs. Maude Smith of Hast­ ings, this year's associational secre­ tary-treasurer. A new feature this year was a re­ cognition service for the past presi­ dents of the association, nearly all of whom were present Mrs. Melissa Roe, only living charter member of Laurel chapter, was the first presi­ dent of this association and was pres­ ent for this honorary service, at which diplomas were presented, by Mrs. El­ sie Gould of Hastings, who had this feature in charge. Past Presidents of this association residing in Nashville are Mrs. Roe, Mrs. Tuttle and Mrs. Vance. In the election of officers, the re­ sult was as follows: President, Mrs. Maude Bell of Middleville; vice pres., Orno Knowles of Freeport; sec-treas., Mrs. Martha Dietrich of Middleville; na Tuttle of Nashville.

JOHN G- EMERY. Potentate. They will arrive by special motor busses at Nashville at 1:30 o'clock p. m., Friday, October 9th, and will be met by the local ambassador, Len W. Feighner, and fellow Shriners. A band concert and drill will be given and other entertainment provided during their stay. A request has been made of the vil­ lage authorities to have one block on Main street roped off in advance of the caravan’s arrival in order to pre­ vent automobiles from interfering with the activities. The Shrine is the fun-making or­ ganization of the Masonic fraternity, but besides good fellowship, their pro­ gram takes in a large welfare pro­ ject. This organization owns and op­ erates sixteen hospitals in North America for the cure and rehabilita­ tion of crippldU children, and a mil­ lion and a half dollars is expended ev­ ery year In this worthy project. These hospitals are not open to chil­ dren whose parents can afford to pay for the service. Ln accepting children for treatment, the Shriners make no discrimination as to religious belief, race or color, which makes this great humanitarian movement most broad in its scope. The visit of the Shriners to Nash­ ville is a part of a several-day tour of various communities in this section of the state. From here the caravan win go to Bellevue, and on to Battle Creek for a parade and banquet in the evening at the Masonic temple. The Shrine meets only three times a year in Grand Rapids and the ob­ ject of this pilgrimage is to bring the Shrine to the local resident members. In addition to Len W.

Wallace, Nashville's new school superintendent, knows all about farming and how to impart this knowledge to others* but this isn't all he knows. Mr. Wallace put in three years in the Air Service during the World War and later was in the Air Mall Service, all of which was done with the same thoroughness that characterizes his school work. So when a slip cf a girl, with unus­ ual poise and confidence for a high school sophomore, and showing intel­ ligence and not emotionalism, ap­ proached him at the beginning of the school year, regarding her studies for the year, and confided that she wish­ ed to take up flying later on, Mr. Wal­ lace was at once keenly interested, and the young lady, Marqulta Brumm, chea commit The American Legion's new nation­ al commander is Henry Leonidas Stevens Jr., 35 year old attorney of Warsaw, N. C., an overseas veteran of the 318th Machine Gun Battalion, a soldier and sportsman, who also sings bass in Calvary Episcopal church choir, hunting ducks on the Eastern Caroline coast and fishing with the same enthusiasm that caus­ ed him to leave his studi38 at the Uni­ versity of North Carolina and join the A. E. F. He made a wonderful rec­ ord as state commander, completing North Carolina’s quota of the nation­ al $5,000,000 Legion endowment fund, clearing the department of debt and having a $2,500 cash balance for his successor, and pushing the member­ ship to the highest point. And this is one of the school boy soldiers of the World War. Convention High Lights Three of the high lights of this great colorful convention which filled Detroit and its suburbs, and over­ flowed to Windsor, was the address of President Hoover; the Legion’s stand for a referendum on dry laws, voted 1,008 to 394 for states' expression; and it turning down a proposal for immediate full payment of bonus slips. The monster parade might be called a dozen more high lights. In its report on work of rehabilita­ tion. the Legion made a plea for 300 more beds for the veterans’ hospital at Camp Custer, as a portion of a secondary program which the veter­ ans ask be carried out. The primary part of the program listed nine hospi­ tals, which the report contended should receive attention first. The Battle Creek institution was listed as one of 10 which should receive atten­ tion after the previous work has been accomplished "except in the event of extreme emergency arising after the adoption of such program." Opposi­ tion of the American Medical associa­ tion to the federal hospitalization of war veterans was attacked in the re­ port which also contained scores of recommended changes in the present laws relative to veteran rehabilita­ tion, compensation and insurance. Continuation of the present con­ tract with the American Legion hos­ pital at Battle Creek was urged.

Rev. S. J. Fran­ cis being the first speaker, who held the attention of his audience for more than a half hour in a friendly talk on the limitations of the human man in general, stressing the need for coop­ eration and business friendships as well as social. W. J. Purdue, a live-wire speaker, was present and talked in the inter­ ests of the Salvation Army, in which he holds the title of "major." Mr. Purdue talked at some length ex­ plaining fully the alms and purposes of this great body of men and women whcPhave organized themselves in the Salvation Army. The talk was inter­ spersed with lively aqecdotes and near-personal quips of a local nature. A plea for funds met with a ready response. The business session was merely a matter of form, as the various com­ mittees and members had seemingly devoted very little thought to weighty matters during the summer. It is understood that many ideas and plans for our little city are in the making and will be taken up during the win­ ter meetings.

What is claimed to be the highest bridge in the world, over the Royal Gorge of the Colorado River near Canon City, Colo., now has "elevator service" to the bottom of the canyon. The elevator, or incline railway, was completed this summer and descends from the bridge to the canyon bot­ tom, a distance of slightly more than 1.000 feet, at an angle of 45 derive. The bridge, located 10 miles above Canon City, is of the suspension type held by two cables composed of 2100 strands of steel wire wound, one strand at a time, into a cable nine Inches tn diameter. The cablee are anchored into solid rock and concrete and pass over four steel towers, each 75 feet high. The bridge is 1260 feet long with a middle span of 880 feet. It hangs 1000 feet above the river, making it, according to George E. Cole, its builder, more than twice as high as any other bridge In the worid.

At the present time, associations in the state have total assets in excess of $167,000. A survey of-the industry by the building and loan division of the de­ partment. shows that the associations in the state are in a "good’ 'financial/ position, according to Coleman C. Vaughan, division chief. In several localities, associations have required members to give 30 days notice ac­ cording to law, before withdrawing funds, but investigation by the de­ partment. shows that , this step, in ev­ ery instance, has been taken as an added protection to members. Gasoline tax receipts for the months of August and September will exceed those for- the corresponding months of 1930, Department of State records indicate.. Complete figures, for August will not be available but it is certain that the 1930 revenue of $2,­ 171,054 will be exceeded. . Unusually large attendances at the Michigan State Fair as well as at var­ ious county fairs and huge influx of visitors to the American Legion con­ vention will bring the September gas tax revenue above the Sept 1930 fig­ ure of $2,009,579.

Fire Prevention I* Week Of October 4-10 Gypsy Caravan Run Against Officers Suggestion To Home Owners By State Fire Marshal Of State Of Michigan. Gas stations as easy “pickers" re­ ceived a set-back In the minds of a motor caravan of gypsies traveling in four large Cadillacs eastward from Grand Rapids on US-16, and in the pockets as well, as from voluminous skirts where had been secreted the $20 which had been previous to the gypsy invasion lying in a till in a gas statio nthis side of Grand Rapids, had to come $18 as fine and costs impos­ ed in a "Kangaroo court” by the road­ side at the Shindorf station, west of Portland, where Ionia officers found the caravan making itself at home and prepared to lay away more twen­ ties or grands. There were about 35 in the gang. The man who had lost the $20 had hard work to pick out the ’lady" who had robbed the till from the 12 lined up by the officers, but finally selected one, who in the end adn^tted her guilt, when informed the whole bunch would have to be taken back to Ionia, otherwise. Only those who have been in close proxim­ ity to these wanderers when they swoop down on a gas station, farm home, community store, or small town, can re-enact the drama quite as correctly in Imagination. In most towns nowadays they are warned out and on their way almost before they arrive because of their reputation for thievery. Inasmuch as President Herbert Hoover has proclaimed Fire Preven­ tion Week October 4th to 10th, it is considered the duty of each and every person to eliminate fire causes as far as possible especially during this per­ iod. »" ■ That all owners of business places, factories, and homes make a special effort to remove all rubbish of a com­ bustible nature from their premises. The cooperation of all civic organiza­ tions, city officials, school teachers and principals, newspapers, and radio stations is asked in order that as much publicity may be given as pos­ sible. What can each individual do? Ev­ ery person occupies a home in Mich­ igan and it is suggested by the State Fire Marshal that an inspection be made of your premises. There are 35 common causes of fire found in the home. Listed are some of the causes: Radio wires fastened to combustible posts on chimneys; chimneys not of sufficient height; wood shingles; elec­ tric drop cords hung on nails; cellu­ loid toys; rubbish in basements; rub­ bish in attic; unprotected joists above smoke pipe and furnace; fireplace without fender or screen; ashes in wooden containers; inflammable cleaning fluid in the home; oily rags or waste; furniture polish and palate; exposed wood lath; gasoline stored in the home; electric iron without pilot light; oil and gasoline stovea; no pro­ tection under stoves on wood floors; matches within children's reach; in­ flammable curtains too close to stove; The Woman’s Christian Temper­ ance Union met with Mra.

Oa ct From the Charlotte Republican­ Tribune of last week we clip the fol­ lowing story about the Raisin Brook Packing Co., taken from the Dundee Reporter, which is of considerable Interest to many News readers: "On Thursday last, over five hun­ dred people attended the sale and nfeeting of the creditors of the Raisin Brook Packing company at the plant west of Dundee. Levi Williams, temporary trustee, at ten o’clock called upon Lewis Rigel, auctioneer, to sell by auction the materia] and equipment of the aefunct company. The bidding was ex­ tremely low and those present, a ma­ jority of whom owned breeding stock of the company, acted more or less uninterested. The sale continued un­ til six o'clock in the evening. A creditors’ meeting was held in the afternoon at the Raisin Brook Inn and was presided over by Paul V. King, referee in bankruptcy. An op­ portunity was given those who had failed to file their claims to do so. After the routine business was tak­ en care of. Mr. King asked anyone desiring information of any sort, to come forward as he would be only too pleased to offer explanations. Levi Williams, by the unanimous vote of the group, was chosen trus­ tee, no other person being mentioned. When asked if the sale held that day would be confirmed. Mr. King said that a bid of >5.000 had already been received from a Mr. Paul of De­ troit If the sale of goods, separately, did not total this amount, the bid of Mr. Paul would be confirmed, as the duty of the court was to secure the greatest amount possible. A meeting of the creditors has been called by Mr. King on Monday, Sep­ tember 21, at the bankruptcy court in the Buhl Building in Detroit, at which time the total amount of the sale would be ready for publication. Among those attending the meet­ ing was St. Clair Couzens, president of the Raisin Brook Packing com­ pany, which filed bankruptcy papers on July 8, 1931.” Battle Creek Centen­ nial Draws Thousands It la Estimated Mort Thu 100.000 Viewed The Historical Pag­ eant Monday. Battle Creek has been the mecca of thousands the past week, from far and near, trains, busses, automobiles, bicycles, horse-drawn vehicles, all em­ ployed in transporting these thou­ sands to the Centennial celebration held in the “Food City” from October 3 to 7, five big days, full of entertain­ ment. The historical pageant of Monday attracted 100,000 spectators and was said to be the largest and most spectacular parade ever present­ ed in Southern Michigan. For two hours the triumphal pro­ cession, commemorating a city’s progress from log cabins to sky­ scrapers. from a rural community of a few sturdy pioneers to a metropolis of more than 50.000. moved through lines of citizens seated along the curbs in chairs and bleachers accom­ modating 10.000, while behind them stood thousands more, 10 deep on the sidewalks. Hundreds of beautifully decorated floats were entered by fraternal or­ ganizations, clubs and business hous­ es. Among the most beautiful were those of the Battle Creek sanitarium and Battle Creek college, with march­ ing nurses and students. War veter­ ans, with American Legion and Vet­ erans of Foreign Wars men in uni­ form and accompanied by their drum and bugle corps, were in the line of march, with thousands more march­ ers representing dozens of organiza­ tions. Among those in the reviewing stand were Gov. and Mrs. Brucker. Sec’y of State Frank Fitzgerald. State Treas­ urer Howard Lawrence. Mayor Wil­ liam Penty of Battle Creek, Mayor Peter F. Gray of I An sing. Mayor Wil­ liam H. McKeighan of Flint, Mayor Norman H. Weiner of Albion, Mayor Charles H. Leonard of Hastings. Dr. John Harvey Kellogg of Battle Creek sanitarium, and Cong. Joseph L. Hooper of Battle Creek. Gov. Brucker spoke at noon before a meet­ ing of local luncheon clubs. Monday night’s program included a pioneers* party at the Sanitarium Un­ ion building and a pavement dance, with two bands on a downtown street.

The Bank Situation In the ten weeks since the Nashville State Bank closed its doors voluntar­ ily as a protective measure, consider­ able progress has been made with its affairs, first by the state banking de­ partment and later by E. B. Finley Jr., acting at first as temporary and at present as permanent receiver of the institution, in systematizing and collecting in as fast as possible on notes and mortgages. Mr. Finley states that he expects very soon to be in a position to call a mass meeting of stockholders and de­ positors of the bank to consider the situation here and to present a plan for possible re-organization, and to determine further procedure. Business Methods Applied To School Present Operation Of The Nashville Schools Are Producing Most Sat­ isfactory Results. The application of business meth­ ods in the operation of our local school is producing most satisfactory results, results that should please the tax-payer. The tax rate last year was $17.60 per thousand dollars assessed valua­ tion; this year it is $9.00, or a net saving of $8.60 on each thousand dol­ lars. The board has adopted the budget system in caring for expenses, and is trying to make each dollar of the tax­ payers' money do its full duty. The fuel for the coming winter is in and paid for. The refinishing of the interior of the building and the addi­ tion to the lighting system, as requir­ ed by the committee from the Uni­ versity, has been done and is paid for. Two new departments, agriculture, and home economics, have been ad­ ded. The additional money received from non-resident tuition, (approxi­ mately $1,000.00 more than in 1930­ 31) will more than pay for the addi­ tional equipment necessary in the new vocational departments. Pupils attending school this year have a choice of more subjects that prepare them for life's work than ever before in the history of Nash­ ville. The increased non-resident en­ rollment, now 56, is proof that the ad­ dition of the vocational training is ap­ preciated. The board of education is to be congratulated upon its success in: In­ troducing vocational work so that pu­ pils may prepare for life work while in high school; starting health work under the Kellogg Foundation plan; increasing the number of offerings and thus giving a wider range of sub­ jects to choose from. All these addi­ tional advantages, and yet a reduc­ tion of the tax rate of approximately 50 per cent W. L. C.

Roll call found 108 delegates present, with a greater number of visitors, .15 Grand officers and dignitaries being among the number. There was a class of 67 past chiefs to receive their “degrees.” Various committee reports and greet­ ings by a delegation from the Knight* in Grand Lodge session at the New Burdick hotel, completely occupied the balance of the morning. "Your representative answered to all four roll calls, which was unusual es many delegates and Grand officer* came straggling in, which was very confusing. The principal feature of the afternoon session was the Mem­ orial services for deceased members, the sisters numbering 46 and brother* 30. Reports delivered during the bus­ iness session revealed that the Grand Temple had recorded $22,237 for al­ truistic work during the last year, and a membership gain of 145 sisters and 48 Knights. One Supreme and two Grand officers had passed on. Greetings from Michigan Temple were telegraphed to South Dakota and New Jersey, the two other state* also in Grand Temple session; also to the past grand officers unable to be present.

A few Knights joined their wives for the banquet, although the Knights were also being banqueted at the New Burdick. The Grand offic­ ers' table was decorated with beauti­ ful bouquets of roses, while the dele­ gates* tables displayed beautiful gar­ den flowers. The menu consisted of fresh fruit cocktail, consomme, heart* of celery, stuffed olives, tenderloin steak, escalloped potatoes, string beans, rolls, lettuce and tomato salad, Thousand Island dressing, strawber­ ry ice cream, macaroons and coffee. The dining room was presided over by a white hostess who directed her 12 colored waiters. Music was furnish­ ed by Fischer's orchestra, which also played at the grand ball following the dinner.

When holding to a false sense of creation as material, we are shut­ ting out of our thought the unlimited possibilities and grand opportunities of man in God’s likeness. To those who are today struggling with the burden of sickness, lack, discouragement, the message of Christian Science is most comforting. It teUs them to look "from the place where thou art,” and give* the en­ couraging promise that then and there the inspiration may be gained which will meet the human need. One does not need to wait until one finds himself in some other place; it can be done "from the place where thou art." Oh, comforting thought! Not merely in a far-off heaven, a place to be reached at some uncertain future time, shall one have the blessing, but here and now, as we awake to the glorious spiritual opportunities at hand and ready to bless, comfort, and supply the things that are needed for human welfare.

Some pay 100 cents on the dollar. "If a bank can do that, the com­ mon query is, why doe* it close? The answer is not difficult. The bank would not close, in all likelihood, if a run had not occurred. Part of a bank’s assets are carried in cash. But other parts of its funds are invested in bonds and various other securities and loans. If the demands of Its de­ positors become so heavy that the bank has to close out its loans, sell its bonds and otherwise liquidate, there is no course open to the direc­ tors but to shut the doors.

Home Furnishing specialist, Michigan State college. Leaders from twenty-eight groups were present, representing approx­ imately five hundred women enrolled in the work. All the groups enrolled in the work last year have reorganiz­ ed again this year and we have also added seven new groups this year. Groups have been organized in fifteen of the sixteen townships in the coun­ ty. Home Furnishing seems to be one of the most popular projects ever un­ dertaken by the women here in the county. The work last year covered the making of rugs, pillows and the selec­ tion of accessories for the home while the work for this year will take up the making of slip covers for chairs, curtains and general interior work. Miss Reis will meet with the local leaders for five lessons this year and the leaders will go back to their own community groups and give the les­ sons to them.

FLOUR EXCHANGE LET’S FIGURE A LITTLE ON THE COST OF BREAD -----A bushel of wheat will buy enough of the best grade of Flour to make forty loaves of bread. The same bushel of wheat will buy probably not more than seven loaves of bread. In other words it costs about thirty loaves of bread to get the other ten made. This makes it pretty expensive to get our wheat made into a loaf ready for the table. We Will Exchange 28 POUNDS OF VALLEY CITY MATCHLESS FOR ONE BUSHEL OF WHEAT 24>4 lb. sack Golden Sunshine, a 50 per cent blended Flour, for one bushel of Wheat.

No action in the last two years has so lighted up the business sky as the spectacular conference of President Hoover with Congressional leaders of both parties at the White House and the executive pronouncement which followed that conference. All other and previous efforts at Washington and elsewhere to deal with economic problems pale into insignificance by comparison. President Hoover initiated action to release millions of dollars in frozen bank assets, the purpose being to get this money back into circulation, re­ vive confidence, and set the wheels of prosperity spinning again. The basic essential of the presiden­ tial plan contemplated placing bank assets in a state of greater liquidity by extending the rediscount privilege. In purpose this is identical with sug­ gestions made by Senator Vandenberg of Michigan and by New York finan­ cial leaders, but the President under­ takes to accomplish the purpose by a different method. Mr. Hoover's financial program was designed to meet the threatened banking crisis, drive away "foolish alarms." and stop hoarding. It pro­ vided : 1. Formation of a bankers cor­ poration with at least $500,000,000 to rediscount banking assets not now eligible at Federal Reserve banks. Many bankers have assented to this. The New York Clearing House asso­ ciation already has pledged $150,000,­ 000. Secretary of Treasury Mellon said the remainder would be raised without difficulty. 2. Appointment of bankers com­ mittees by Federal Reserve banks to make advances on assets of closed banks to release locked deposits. 3. Action by congress to broaden the Federal Reserve act to give great­ er liquidity to the assets of Federal Reserve banks. 4. If necessary. Mr. Hoover will recommend creation of a finance cor­ poration like the war finance corpora­ tion with funds sufficient for any le­ gitimate credit demands. 5. Advance of additional govern­ ment capital to Federal Land banks to provide greater credit for farmers. “The times call for unity of action on the part of our people," the an­ nouncement said in conclusion. “We have met with great difficulties not of our own making. It requires deter­ mination to overcome these difficul­ ties. and above all to restore and maintain confidence. Our people owe It not only to themselves and in their own interest, but they can by such example of stability and purpose give hope and confidence in our own coun­ try and to the rest of the world.” President Hoover’s sudden action in summoning more than thirty Repub(Continued on page 8) Head Of Dixie Oil Co.

Police found a rear door of the oil company’s office "jimmied" and found four tools spread on the floor of the office. The vault in the office had not been disturbed. White was shot w’ith a gun owned by the company and kept in a desk in the general offices. One shot struck White and the other entered a wall.

Beans Are Short Crop Owing To The Drought—Potato Crop Is Estimat­ ed About 22,000,000 Bushels. Nearly A Centenarian Although the crop season of 1931 was cne of the driest on record in Michigan, crop yields as a whole were less disappointing than might have been expected. While beans and po­ tatoes were poor in many fields in the southern half of the state and some were near or complete failures, others have produced average and better than average yields. The wheat crop averaged 26.5 bushels per acre, the highest ever recorded in the state. The per acre returns on rye have been exceeded in but few other seasons. Corn, oats, and barley were only slightly below the ten-year average in yield. The sugar beet crop is ex­ pected to average around eight tons per acre which is about one ton over the long time average. Potatoes, beans, and buckwheat are the only crops falling decidedly below normal yields. All fruits except pears were abundant. While crop conditions and resulting yields varied greatly between different sections and between farms in the same section, nearly every farmer has had some good crops this year. This is the direct result of the widely diversified character of Michigan ag­ riculture as pointed out in the Octo­ ber 1 crop report released by Verne H. Church, U. S. Agricultural Statis­ tician, and Herbert E. Powell, State Commissioner of Agriculture. The most discouraging feature of the ag­ ricultural situation is the extremely low prices being received for farm products. While farm wages are much lower than they were a few years ago, the other farm operating costs, such as machinery, taxes and interest, have shown but little reduc­ tion and are far out of proportion to the returns from cash crops. Until this situation is corrected, the buying power of the farmer will continue at Beans and potatoes are considered the two leading cash crops in Mich(Continued on page 8) A Former Resident Dies At Ann Arbor Taught School In Barry Co. And Served As Mail Carrier For Fourteen Years. Nashville friends were saddened to learn of the passing of Isa F. Newton, after a brief illness, which followed an extended motor trip to Florida and other southern points, and which oc­ curred at the family home at 115 Vir­ ginia Ave., Ann Arbor, on Wednesday evening of last week.

For the past six years, the family had resided in Ann Arbor, and for five years Mr. Newton had been em­ ployed as assistant inventory clerk in the business office of the University. He was a member of First Church of Christ. Scientist, of Ann Arbor, also the Mother Church of Boston, Mass. He has acted' as reader and has been an active worker in the many branches of the Christian Science movement. Surviving in the immediate family are the widow and two daughter*. Mrs. Lawrence W. Gray of Detroit and Loraine, at home, the mother, Mrs. Sarah Newton of Hastings, a brother. Will Newton, and a sister, Mrs. Geo. DeMott, both residing near Hastings.

State Celery Crop An Insect Attacking Michigan Fields Is Now Being Controlled By Pyrethrum Sprays. ’ One insect which has been an inof­ fensive citizen of Michigan for many years has yielded to temptation thia summer and is doing serious damage to the state’s celery crop, according to the entomology department at Michigan State college. The celery leaf tyer, in Jhe adult form, is a small moth. The larvae, which eat the inner portions of the celery stalks and the tops of the plant are the form of the insect which cause the losses. In addition to the portions of the plants which are eat­ en, there is a loss from the damaged appearance of the celery bunches. The leaf tyer can be destroyed by poison sprays applied before the grower starts bleaching his crop but the only poisons which can be safely used are the extracts of pyrethrum. These poisons are prepared at differ­ ent strengths and should be applied according to the directions of the manufacturer. The appearance of celery which is attacked by this'insect can be im­ proved if the grower will wash the celery, after cutting, in a solution made by mixing the same amount of Pyrethrum extract in water as is recommended for spraying the plants before they are harvested. The cel­ ery should be marketed the next day after it is washed. 'fhe insect has been reported from Benzie county southward to the state line. Reuben Getschow, who recovered from a broken back and became a football star, lost his fight for life against a broken* neck. The 23-yearold captain of Elmhurst, Hl., college football team, who suffered a broken neck in his eleven’s victorious contest with Valparaiso, Ind., University, a week ago, died recently. Getschow suffered a broken back in a rock fall on a construction job netfr his home at Appleton. Wis., four years ago. He lived, and his ability earned him the Elmhurst captaincy. Prowling around the plant of Parke Davis Co., at the foot of Joseph Campau Avenue, Detroit, in the darkness at an early hour, Harold Gough of Deckerville, Mich., was discovered by two patrolmen who took him to the Hunt Street station. There the offic­ ers learned Gough had mud' a hurried automobile trip from his home to De­ troit to obtain infantile paralysis serum for his 14-year-old niece, who was stricken with the disease. The Detroit hospitals had so little serum on hand that none could be given him so he went to the Parke Davis plant long before it opened. Lieutenant Wendell Lockbiler got Walter G. Nor­ vell, superintendent of the plant, out of bed and shortly before dawn, Gough, with the serum in his pocket, started his return trip to Deckerville. The homes of 100 babies will be­ come laboratories for scientists of Western Reserve University, Cleve­ land, who want to find out why in­ fants grow up the way they do. The study will begin when the babies are three months old and will last through childhood. When the work is completed the scientists expect to have concrete evidence to support the theory that the physical condition of children depends more on what hap­ pens to the child after it is born than has yet been realized. Dr. T. Win­ gate Todd, professor of anatomy at Western Reserve, and his associates will conduct the study, a project of the Brush Foundation for the Ad­ vancement of the Human Race. Each child will be given physical and psy­ chological examinations every three months the first year, every six months until five years old and once every year from then on. Mothers co-operating in the research will re­ cord such things as whether baby had the mumps at six months, the age when it first grasped objects using the thumb in opposition to the index fin­ ger, when it first spoke and when it took its first step. By these and oth­ er things will be noted physical condi ion; skeletal progress, tooth erup­ tion and mental and motor develop­ ment The old fashioned sewing bee is to be turned into a means of unemploy­ ment relief by the club women in a Chicago suburb. The tablecloth that has long needed hemming, those blan­ kets that ought to be rebound, that Christmas outfit for Betty’s doll, and dozens of other little tasks that are hard for a busy housewife to get around to, are to be done in a com­ munity sewing circle in Hinsdale, Ill., where women who need work are to be brought in touch with those who can afford to pay for haying work done. A vacant store is to be opened for the purpose. This and other re­ lief activities of club women were re­ ported to the board meeting of the Il­ linois Federation of Women's Clubs. Some districts in parts of the state where fruit crops were abundant this season put up thousands of cans of fruit and vegetables for distribution to needy families. Produce was do­ nated by growers, cans and labor by club women. In one town a moving picture theater manager helped by accepting empty fruit jars for admis­ sion tickets, then turning them over to the philanthropic canners. Some clubs, the federation officers learned, adopted the practice of giving every thirteenth jar canned by their mem­ bers to charity. Commending the amount of work that, has been done, the federation board recommended that every district federation take the lead in local relief work. The import­ ance of local recreation activities wm stressed by the board, which went on record as favoring economy measures in any department in preference to retrenchment in those activities which it regards as "conservingyouth." The most popular depart­ ment this year promises to be that of the American home, said Mrs. Wil­ liam T. Bruckner, chairman of pub­ licity. The board is planning district conferences ail over the state for Oc­ tober. dealing with this vital subject, she said. The club women are indi­ cating their interest in the time-hon­ ored art of ctx>Wng by supporting a food show at the Merchandise Mart. Oct. 39 to 24.

No. 1602 Premier Laval, Paris, has a sum­ mer retreat equivalent to President Hoover’s Rapidan River camp. At his 296-acre stock farm. La Corbiere, in Normandy, the French statesman busies himself with pedigreed cattle. He says he spends week-ends at his farm to "dis-iptoxicate” himself. L. O. Rogers of Miami has a pointer puppy that is apparently even with the cats. Already the pup has check­ ed off four of his nine mythical lives. The first life was accounted for when he was caught in a steel trap, held long enough to have starved to death, and emerged with a broken leg. No. 2 was claimed when he was run over by an automobile. No. 3 and No. 4 were theoretically ended by rattle­ snake bites. The pup still is going strong. An Aztec queen of great beauty, goodness and energy has . emerged from the dusty pages of an ancient document Her story, written in the Aztec language by a Spanish priest, tells how Mateuth was ruling over the Cholula district when the Spanish conquerors arrived. She was convert­ ed and christened Maria. The docu­ ment has been translated by Profes­ sor Mariano Reyes of the staff of the national museum of archaeology and history. says a Mexico City dispatch. Henry Ford has reopened an old stone schoolhouse at Macon as an example of what the United States had educationally when she reared some of her greatest men. His edu­ cational experiment is a part of the agricultural work in which the auto­ mobile magnate is engaged in Lena­ wee. Washtenaw and Wayne counties, embracing 14,000 acres of land. Ford provided luncheon in an old home­ stead adjoining the school for former pupils of the school back for a reun­ ion and for other visitors. An entire city block at Lamar, Colo., was heaped with wheat—1,000,bushels of it. Charles Maxwell, may­ or of Lamar, purchased the wheat at 8 to 10 cents a bushel above the mar­ ket price, buying it to help the wheat growers of his community. “The Federal Farm Board," Maxwell be­ lieves, "has talked a lot but always runs for cover when the market breaks. Anyone who wouldn't pay 30 cents for wheat is a piker and as evi­ dence of my faith. Id this statement I cite the fact that I have already pur­ chased 1,000,000 bushels of wheat and expect to continue to buy." The entries at Victoria Exhibition in British Columbia from the Prince of Wales’ Alberta ranch literally "swept the boards” in the Shorthorn class. This was the only class in which the Prince’s cattle were exhib­ ited. These animals from the "E. P." ranch at High River captured the grand champion pennant and reserve, senior champion cow, junior champion cow, nine additional firsts, one sec­ ond, three thirds and a fourth. In­ deed, the Shorthorn herd presented a much beribboned display when the judging had been concluded. Birds may come and go as the sea­ sons change in Michigan, but hereaf­ ter the red-breasted fellow known as the robin will be the official state bird. Not a dissenting chirp was heard from any of the legislators who voted on the joint resolutions which desig­ nated the state bird immediately pre­ ceding final adjournment. Amid con­ sideration of a J60.000.000 budget and a $5,000,000 deficiency measure, the robin resolution was the cheeriest note of the occasion. The voice of the clerk droned: "Therefore ba it re­ solved that the robin is declared to to the official state bird.” There was no argument, and the robin was “adopt­ ed ’ without a peep from anyone. Q D. (Duke) Muller, Niles. Mich., pilot, landed an airplane on the roof of the four story American Seating company plant in the heart of the city and made a safe take-off from a spe­ cial runway on the top of the build­ ing. The stunt, Muller, said, was per­ formed to show the possibilities of’ bringing airplane express right to the doors of-buslnepH houses. The flight was without incident.

The Woman’s Literary club nW at Putnam public library Wednesday, Oct. 14, for Columbus Day. A short business session was held, at which time Mrs. W. D. Wallace was elected to membership. It was voted to reduce the dues to one dollar a .year for active members, and two dollars for associate members: also to withdraw from the Federation for two years. Mrs. Grace Kleinhans was chair­ man for the day. with Mrs. Lena Cook as music chairman. The pro­ gram which gave us glimpses of Spanish life and music, was most in­ teresting. Mrs. Cook gave a brief outline of Spanish music, a sketch of the life of Albeniz, a Spanish composer, and a description of his composition. "Tan­ go in D,” which was played by Mrs. Mae Smith. Mrs. Kathryn Maurer gave a paper on the “Discovery of America." and closed by reading two letters from a college friend who was spending some time in Spain. These letters were very interesting and amusing and gave us a woman’s view of Spanish life as it is today. They added much to the enjoyment of the program. Mrs. Cook gave a sketch of the life of Yradier, another Spanish compos­ er, and a description of the music, “La Paloma,” which was given as a song by Mrs. Laura Sackett. Mrs. Linna Tuttle told us briefly of the “Customs and Traditions of Spain." Mrs. Cook gave a sketch of the life of Enrique Granados, the noted Span­ ish composer, who lost his life when the boat upon which he was returning to Europe, was torpedoed during the World War. Mrs. Cecile Betts played his "Spanish Dance, No. 5." which is written mostly in a minor key. The last number on the program was the paper, "Spain Today," by Mrs. Daisy Lentz. She told us briefly of what Spain was in the past, and what it is today; its geographical and historical facts of interest. The club adjourned to meet Wed­ nesday. Oct 28. at the library. Mrs. Mattie Quick will be hostess, and Mrs. Gertrude Mason music chairman. Let all plan to attend.

We’ve been around quite a bit, have lived in Detroit, Grand Rapids, Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, In Reno even a few years, have always been observant and have seen most of the sights to be seen in these cities and others in our travels. This is just a little preamble to a story about a friend of ours in a local drag store divided by a hall-way from the Fed­ eral building, otherwise known as the postofilce presided over by our genial supervisor-postmaster. Smith by name, who by the way can add the handle “Hon.” to his name should he so desire. In the drug store mention­ ed everything is arranged on the or­ der of efficiency, clean and attractive, the windows are always shining, and the window displays, well, they would do credit to a professional window trimmer, not just a messed up con­ glomeration of odds and ends of stock, but real window displays of attrac­ tive up-to-date merchandise. And the master-mind behind these attractive advertising arrays is none other than our friend and your friend Brown, that pleasant, unassuming, slightly bald young man who hails you with a genial smile and a ready service. He can even stir up a “cocktail” at the soda fountain should occasion arise for this task. "Charlie” as he is known to all his friends, performs all these various duties connected with the "job” in a most thorough, unhur­ ried manner, and as we said before, we’ve been around quite a bit, and we've never observed a better demon­ strator, and that’s that! i Minutes of the regular meeting of the village council held at the village hall, Nashville, Mich., Monday even­ ing, Sept. 21st, 1931.

Home Furnishing seems to oe a very popular project with the women in Barry county. Women from seven different communities, who have nev­ er been in extension work, have or­ ganized into groups for the coming year and are very much interested in the work. County Agent Foster reports that the women are well pleased with the project thus far this year and expect to receive muchgood from it in mak­ ing the home more attractive at a alight cost. Leaders in the 1931-1932 4-H Han­ dicraft and Clothing club projects will meet in Hastings on Monday, Oc­ tober 26th, for a leaders training school. It is expected that between 75 and 100 leaders will attend the meeting to receive instructions from the state club leaders in this work. The in­ struction covers organization of the club, outlining the wo/k for the year, the carrying out of the project and any questions the local leaders wish to ask regarding the work. There is a great increase in the in­ terest in this work this year. 4-H clubs are being organized in over 65 rural schools this year. 520 boys and girls from every township in the county but one will be taking the work. County Agent Foster feels that the success of a club depends in many cases upon a correct start, and for that reason is very anxious that all club leaders attend this instruction meeting on Monday. October 26th. Barry county 4-H Canning clubs will close a successful season of club work with local club canning exhibits during the latter part of the month.

Serie* Of Mi*haps Befall Local Folk* Trouble seems to flock around sometimes and that’s the way the Gail Lykins family are figuring it right now. Mr. Lykins had an eye tooth treated and filled, and then gas formed, the filling had to be removed, and the tooth broke in extracting, so he finally went to the hospital to have the root removed by drilling as a finishing touch. And this accounts for Monday night. Then when they came back from Hastings after a treatment for Mr. Lykins Tuesday, Sherman Lykins, one of the twin sons of Mr. and Mrs. Lykins, had been playing about his father's shop after school and had tipped over an acety­ lene tank upon himself and broken his leg below the knee.

Adrian gunsmith, watch and clock repair-man, to whom came work from afar, has died. Ho had been a blacksmith, a sailor on the great lakes, a plainsman and scout under the famous "Buffalo Bill," and during later years was a craftsman and collector. Men from Detroit To­ ledo and all points to southern Mich­ igan and northern Ohio brought brok­ en and wornout firearms to his shop and here they were repaired. He had more than 300 firearms from exam­ ples of the first types of muzzle load­ ing rifles down to the type of modern automatic pistol used to the World War, to his collection. Tn his curio room were bows and arrows original­ ly used by the Sioux Indians, the Ccmanches and other tribes. He also had collected old coins dating back to a period before the time of Christ. Mineral ores, fossils of the sea. partial skeletons of prehistoric animals, knives, swords and scab­ bards completed his collection. Mr. Wheeler had traveled in every state to the Union except two. At one time he knew every foot of country be­ tween Oregon and FL Worth, Texas, and rode that distance on horse back. For three years he served under "Buffalo BUI,” William Frederick Cody, as Indian scout and plainsman, and he enjoyed telling of some of his experiences while acting to that ca­ pacity. The last time the famous "Buffalo Bill' was in Adrian with his wild west show, he halted the entire parade for five minutes while he stop­ ped to chat with Mr. Wheeler to front of his home on Division street. A few years on the Great Lakes instill­ ed to him a love for the water that later in life found expression through miniature working models of sailing craft of all kinds.

Newton of Ann Arbor, passed away Sunday evening, Oct. 18, at the home of her sister. Mra. Lawrence W. Gray of Detroit, following a brief illness, having never recovered from the shock of her fath­ er's passing a few days previous. Loraine was born at Nashville, De­ cember 17, 1909, and lived here until the family moved to Ypsilanti in 1917. She had always lived at home with the exception of two years spent in a private school at Detroit. She endeared herself to all those with whom she became acquainted, by her lovable and patient disposition. She is survived by her mother and sister, and a large number of rela­ tives and friends. Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 at the home of Mrs. Newton’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Murray, in Nashville. The services were conducted by the First Reader of First Church of Christ, Scientist, Lansing. Cousins of Loraine acted as bearers. Thos. A. Edison Passes To The Great Beyond Had Lain In Coma For More Than A Week — Long Illness Saps Vitality. Our greatest inventor, Thomas A. Edison, who aided all humanity and whose life is a story of progress, pass­ ed away quietly at an early hour Sun­ day morning, mourned by the whole nation as a unit and the world at large. / On a medal presented him by Con­ gress in October, 1928, was the in­ scription: “He illumined the path of progress by his inventions,” and President Coolidge on that occasion addressed him as “Noble, kindly ser­ vant of the United States and bene­ factor of mankind." His registration of 1200 patents made him the most prolific inventor of his time. An invention was born on the average of every two weeks. He spent not more than two months in school, receiving his early education from his mother, his later education was largely self taught. He was the outstanding wizard of his age. ~ । Death came to him at the age of 84, but in accomplishments he had outlived in years his father, who died at 94. his grandfather who died at 102, and his great-grandfather who was 104 at the time of his death, a total of 300 years for the three of them. i Lansing Bulletin | In an effort to aid the unemploy­ ment situation, Secretary of State Frank D. Fitzgerald has announced that 1932 automobile license plates will be placed on sale Nov. 14. This date is 15 days earlier than in former years, but it is thought that the ad­ vance in date will stimulate the pur­ chase of new model automobiles and thus provide increased employment for Michigan workmen. No change has been made regarding 1931 license plates. They may be us5d legally until March 1. 1932, but an ippeal, based on state patriotism, has x>en made to all persons, financially able to do so, to purchase 1932 plates by Jan. 1 to assist Michigan in finan­ cing its $10,000,000 winter highway construction program, affording work to about 30,000 men. The 1931 law requiring registration of airplanes has been in effect since Sept. 18, and only three manufactur­ ers and 14 p.]anes have registered. As soon as all planes are registered the Department of State plans to make an analysis of the use of planes in Censure and commercial flying in ichigan. Former N. H. S.

Tips The final chapter in the Sunfield bank robbery was written Tuesday, when three Lansing young men, young in years but experienced in banditry, appeared before Judge McPeek in the Eaton County Circuit Court, for sentence. The youths, Maynard Little, 20, Gerald Buysee, 22, and Kenneth Albro, 20, had waived examination in justice court Monday and pleaded guilty in circuit court to the bank robbery charges for looting the Sun­ field State bank of $1,377 on August 28th. Albro, who was the Central Mich­ igan A. A. U. welterweight boxing champion in 1929, was arrested Mon­ day at a farm north of Dimondale, as the leader of the two who held up the hank Little and Buysee had been arrested over the week end. It was a lover’s quarrel that brought matters to a head all too rapidly for Buysee and Little, both of whom had been arrested Friday on charges of breaking and entering the Mulholland hardware storfe near Char­ lotte. After a severe grilling by Sheriff Spencer Cribb of Eaton coun­ ty and his deputies. Little was releas­ ed for lack of evidence but Buysee was arraigned on the breaking and entering charge on Saturday. Meanwhile a young Grand Rapids girl friend of Buysee, smarting, ac­ cording to officers, over his refusal to give her sufficient pioney to make a trip from Lansing to her home, thought of a method of revenge. She confided the whole story of Buysee's activities, including the Sun­ field bank robbery, to officials, in the glowing phrases which the young man had used to show her that he was a “real he man." Not informing Buysee of his for­ mer sweetheart’s action in t£e mat­ ter as the result of a lover's quarrel. Sheriff Cribb got in touch with the Lansing police and late Saturday af­ ternoon they found Little in his Lans­ ing apartments and after a short grilling he confessed. Buysee then was faced by Little, who was return­ ed to Charlotte, and admitted his part aLso. The Sunfield bank was robbed early the morning of August 28 by three men who secrated themselves in the institution before it had opened. When Cashier D. G. Weippert unlocked the doors and entered his cage "he was ordered at the point of a pistol to hand over the money. The trio scooped up $1,377 from the safe, and after binding the feet and hands of the cashier, ned. Weippert was soon released and a search was organized, but to no avail. Lpter the stolen car the trio had used was found at a de­ serted Indian camp, and this was lat­ er returned to the Lansing owner. The youths, who have been harry­ ing officials of western and central Michigan for months, admitted seven other stick-ups, two in Ionia county and five in T-arising. The Ionia hold­ ups, which they confessed, were those of the gas stations at the intersection of US-16 and M-14 on the morning of Oct 6. when $37 was secured. The T Arising hold-ups included that at the Groesbeck Golf club several weeks ago. Sentences of from 15 to 36 years were imposed Tuesday on the three for the robbery of the Sunfield State bank Aug. 28, of $1,377. by Circuit Judge Russell R. McPeek, in Eaton county Circuit Court, after they had pleaded guilty Monday to the bank robbery charge after waiving exam­ ination in the lower court. AJbro’s mother was present when the young men were sentenced. The trio were sent to Jackson state prison, and were taken there immediately to be­ gin their sentences, which were pro­ nounced at noon. Sheriff Cribb and four deputies accompanied the pris­ oners.

Home Sunday, Following A Short Illness. George Griffin Johnson, well known resident of Nashville and a Christian worker for 60 years, passed away on Sunday after a few hours’ illness. Mr. Johnson, the son of William and Charlotte Johnson, was bom in East Flamborough, Province of Ontario, Canada, May 27, 1854, and passed to bis great reward Oct 25. 1931, aged 77 years and five months. He leaves his devoted and loving wife, Mrs. Car­ oline Johnson. There were no chil­ dren. Three sisters, Mrs. Sarah Green, who is now 84, of Stony Creek, Ontario; Mrs. Susan Scroggie of Hamilton. Ontario; and Mrs. Mar­ tha Herschizer of Lake Odessa, and a number of nieces and nephews also survive. It is rather unusual that now there are-left six widows of his immediate family chain, and all are of a good old age. Mr. Johnson’s last illness was of only a few hours’ duration, becoming ill at four o'clock, Sunday morna; and passing away about onerty p. m. The deceased was thoroughly con­ verted, at a camp meeting in Ontario, when he was only seventeen years <5f age. and all these years has never swerved from his allegiance to his Lord and Master, and was often heard to exclaim, "It pays to serve Jesus." He was always very happy in the dear Lord's work, and when he attended a good meeting would say it was a “precious meeting," and also would say whatever name he was called here did not matter, only so the Lord would call him "Beloved." He and Mrs. Johnson attended the weekly prayer meeting on Thursday night, and on Tuesday evening, with their pastor and husband, attended church services at I rinsing and met many of their former neighbors, and church workers of former years. For sixty years this fall Mr. John­ son has been a steadfast Christian, always at the services of the church, and he often quoted Paul: “I have fought a good fight; I have kept the faith." Before coming to Nashville. Mr. and Mrs. Johnson were Christian workers for ten years in Lake Odes­ sa, ten years in Lansing, and have lived in Nashville eleven years, mak­ ing over thirty years of active Chris­ tian work in Michigan. Mr. and Mrs. Johnson celebrated their "Hallelujah” golden wedding December 29. 1930. The deepest of sympathy is extended to Mrs. John­ son and the three sisters. The funeral services were held on Wednesday morning at 10 o’clock at the Church of the Nazarene, and con­ ducted by his pastor, Rev. Dorotba Hayter. The bearers selected were: George Marlin and Fred T. Hurry of I Aiming. Will Hanes, Will Hayter, B. J. Reynolds « and Charles Nease of Nashville, with burial in Lakeview cemetery, Nashville.

What a panorama of beauty all about us these days! How grateful we should all be to the Giver of all good gifts for this beautiful fall, for the rains which gave us again our lovely green carpets where the grass seemed to be burned entirely by the weeks of drouth, for pasture and growing grains and lawns, the renew­ al of life of the trees, many of them yet so green, others in such lovely autumn colors. And with it all, so many out of the season flowers; re­ ported from all about us. The Thorn­ apple river, replenished from the rains, and again lovely and clean looking. One of the very attractive hill-top views is the western sweep to the south and north from the Nelson Brumm farm, where all the autumn colors in various combinations are seen in the many wooded sections about the landscape, and about the place which was landscaped three years ago by Professor Gregg, ex­ tension specialist in landscaping. So many flowers right in ^October, a much more luxuriant flowering than in the summer months. Some are blossoming all over again, even ap­ ple trees on which are the ripened fruit too. Roses are still blooming at the Commercial Hotel, and the lowly violets are again in bloom there. States To Organize Credit Bank Pools -----------• These Units Guarantee Loans To Sub­ ’ scribing Members. All pay­ ments At N. Y. The working plan of the National Credit Corporation formed to ease the country’s credit, was revealed by George M. Reynolds, chairman of the board, at Chicago. The plan of the seventh Federal Re­ serve District to have states organize their own pools wiL’ be followed wher­ ever possible throughout the nation. Reynolds said. The loans to subscribing members will be guaranteed by these pools, but will be paid and cleared out of a cen­ tral New York City office. All pools will be assessed to meet thes*’ loans, so that resources of all subscribing barks will flow over the country. When a loan is made to a bank, the guaranteeing pool will take a note for the loan from the subscribing bank. Reynolds strongly emphasized that banks were not required to join the corporation immediately to receive its benefits. Any time a bank wishes to borrow from the rediscount pools, it makes application, pledges ten per cent of its capital and surplus, and is then eligible. The pool was formed, after a con­ ference called by President Hoover, to permit banks to borrow on slow as­ sets, which do not meet the rediscount standards of the Federal Reserve System. The operation of the pool in the seventh district has been started at a meeting called by Chairman Rey­ nolds. It was attended by represen­ tatives of Detroit and Indianapolis clearing house groups. The Iowa and Wisconsin pools were formed in meetings at Des Moines and Milwaukee. Michigan bankers met in Detroit Monday. EL R. Leeright, vice presi­ dent of the Peoples Wayne County bank, of Detroit, said that the state’s pool would be formed at that time. ■ Bankers of Indianapolis and Indiana have expressed a desire to become a part of the Chicago and Illinois pool, Reynolds said, and it is likely that this will result. Reynolds said the total resources of the seventh district available to the pool would approximate $100,000,000. The directors, at the recent meet­ ing in New York, agreed upon no set rules for lending money and no set market value has been placed. "Out east, bankers discussed loans on bonds, elsewhere real estate mort­ gages prevail," Reynolds said. "For this same reason, no set rate of in­ terest was announced. E^ch pool will judge its own subscribers’ appli­ cations and each pool will be held responsible for Its loans by the cen­ tral office of the corporation. The prime purpose of the rediscount pool is to keep banks from becoming in­ solvent by lending them money on good paper that is not acceptable to the Federal Reserve banks."

Farmers who live in sections where corn will not mature enough to make good silage can use roots Instead. The kinds usually grown are rutabagas, mangels, or carrots. These crops contain from 80 to 90 per cent water but the dry matter in the crop has the same feeding value pound for pound as the dry matter in corn silage. Roots have a conditioning value for livestock which makes them more de­ sirable for feeding than the actual content of nutrients would indicate. Stockment who exhibit at fairs and livestock breeders use roots to keep their stock in good condition. Car­ roots are especially valuable for feed­ ings to horses. Deep, fertile, well-drained clay loam or sandy loam are ideal for the root crops, which need a comparatively loose soil for the formation of their roots. The ground should contain plenty of humus and be able to retain moisture. Root crops should not be grown on the same ground more of­ ten than once in three years. Roots keep well in storage either in cellars or pits. They should be stor­ ed in places where ft is convenient to remove them as they are needed for feed. Complete directions for growing root crops are contained in Special Bulletin No. 216, which can be ob­ tained from the Bulletin Clerk at Michigan State college.

Saturday evening the first PTA of the school year was held at the school house. Over eighty were present This being Centennial year, we had a sort of “antique show." It was sur­ prising what a grand assortment was produced from just a few homes, at­ tics mostly. So many thought they had nothing to bring, but I am sure when they saw articles brought from Germany, England and Holland and many hand-wrought and crudely made articles of early pioneers, that they too realized their own “treasure is­ land." A brief business meeting was held, and Melva Houghtalln was elected to fill the vacancy of secretary. Miss Lipkey spoke briefly of the County Health Unit ahd its aim and work. Irving Charlton of Lakeview then kindly gave us at least one-half hour's splendid entertainment. He spoke of education and its benefits and what education is, not merely holding diplomas from an eighth grade, or high school, college or uni­ versity, but knowledge gained daily, in other words, we are never too old to learn. He urged boys and girls on to higher education and explained briefly what they could and would find at M. S. C., and with plenty of grit and determination, how they too might almost without outside help earn their way as he did through our M. S. C. In closing he gave a lecture as he would in his teaching days to a . class of college boys on "rope," ex­ plaining its nature, qualities and us­ es, how to finish ends, make splices, and all sorts of knots. Surely we en­ joyed his talk very much and a’l hope he may come again. After staying at home with a sprained ankle. Elaine Day is able to be. in school again.

The time was Friday last, the place was Hill Crest cabin in Assyria, near High Hill lake (the Everts’ summer home) and the girl, or girls, were Mrs. Everts, Mrs. H. C. Klelnhans, Mrs. Theo Bera, Mrs. Dennis Yarger, Mrs. Sam Couch, Mrs. Donald Waldron, Mrs. Clarence Mason and Mrs. Harry Williams. Two loads made the trip, in a lovely fall drive, to the cabin which was attractively trimmed in bittersweet, squaw vine, juniper ber­ ries and autumn leaves. Covers were laid for eight for a chicken-noodle­ potluck dinner with al! the trimmin's, and then came several kinds of "bridge,’’ but not the kind that span rivers and ravines, the new variety was styled “Missouri." For the first table, eight pairs of men's canvas gloves were produced by the hostess for the players’ wear, making the shuffling and dealing very "easy,” in fact a “graceful” game for the eight. For the second game there was an order of "blind bidding," and then taking up the cards. For the third, "blind bidding and playing,’’ and then a regular play, but the high score, "hooked up" with the low award and vice versa. And then the award in the regular way for the play of the afternoon, Mrs. Donald Waldron rpcelvng the high award and Mrs. Har­ ry Williams the low. Then the cards were laid aside and apples were stuf­ fed in the pockets and the "explor­ ers" started out on tour of the beau­ tiful woods and a possible walk to the lake, but without rubbers, which were needed to cross a low place. It came 5:30 and time to "turn about face" all too soon, the time to return to Nashville, but with another pleas­ ant memory of the Birthday Club doin's. W. C. T. U. Met.

The topic under discussion was "Youth’s Rolf Call," stressing the fact that the youth of the nation will carry on the work of enforcement for the protection of the home and future generations, giving each child a healthful living in a healthful environment. Papers read by the members proved that since the brewers backed speakeasies and blind pigs operating in dry local option residential districts, there was more bootlegging then than now.

The corporation tax this year, while not as large as in 1930, exceeds by about 3500,000 the amount that it was estimated the state would receive. The total 1930 tax collected was $7,­ 440,300.

We believe that this is the best thing to do when we can get what we want at a reasonable price. We know that our business men must have business in order to live and pay taxes. But as we preach­ ers go about our church business, we have many people tell us that they Kt their sermons from Chicago, or itroit, or Pontiac, or from some other place. Some folks tell us that their denomination is not represented here, therefore they are not so much Interested in the work of the church in Nashville, and do not fee' so res­ ponsible for it. The community needs merchants and tradesmen and profes­ sional men. and they need our sup­ port, but did you ever try to estimate the value of the church to your com­ munity? The church would be the last institution you would consent to have removed from the community, but are we showing our appreciation for the work and influence of the church? We all like the sociability of the church, and we enjoy getting togeth­ er in a social way, but the main busi­ ness of the church is the winning of souls to Christ We. the Evangelical church, are now holding special meet­ ings where emphasis is being Dlaced upon getting people to yield to the will of God. But this special effort is only a small part of the church program. All through the year faith­ ful men and women are giving their time and labor to sow the seed of the Gospel to the community. The church like the business house could do more and better work if it had the support of the people of the community, and the preacher will have greater inspir­ ation to preach the Gospel if the peoEle of the community will get back of Im by sitting before him. I suppose there are some people in the commun­ ity who don’t know whether or not the Nashville preachers can preach a good helpful sermon. I would like to have the people of Nashville feel just as free to consult me on spiritual things as I am to con­ sult them on other things. If you be­ lieve that the preacher is square, you will do well to call upon him for ad­ vice and help. “For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ” If you have questions to ask just call on me and I will be glad to give you the best I have. Come out to the meetings and hear the Gospel preached, for that is the best way to learn what God requires of you. W. D. Hayes, Pastor of Evangelical Church.

Miss Roberta Hershey. Michigan State college extension nutrition spe­ cialist, offers a few different ways of preparing potatoes: souffle, a la Gol­ denrod, soup, muffins, Spanish, Oak Hill, diamonds, and Dutch. For the potato muffins, IK C. flour, % L salt, and 4 t baking powder are sifted to­ gether. To 1 C. cold mashed potato, add % cup milk and stir until well mixed. Combine the two mixtures and then add two well beaten eggs. Add 2 T. meltfd shortening. Place in greased muffin tins and bake in a moderate oven 875 degrees F. about 30 minutes. Housewives are warned that a good potato can not always be told by Its outside appearance. One which shows a green skin will taste bitter when cooked, for It has grown too close to the surface and has been sun­ burned. The wisest course for the home-maker is to choose medium­ sized potatoes that feel firm when pressed in the hand. Dry. mealy po­ tatoes are best for mashing and bak­ ing, and the more waxy varieties are most suitable for salad and creaming since they will hold their shape. Bake potatoes frequently, Miss Her­ shey urges. Brush the skins with fat before placing in oven and eat the skins. A large proportion of the min­ erals is found directly under the peel­ ing. When done, crack the skin to let out the steam. Cook potatoes in their jackets often; as much as 20 per cent loss may result from paring be­ fore cooking.

CHURCH Have you made your plans for at­ tending the Teacher Training class to be held the week of November 8th in the Methodist church at Hastings? Every Sunday school in the county has the privilege of sending their teachers for this course, especially the Primary and Junior workers, because foundation work in religious educa­ tion is most important and this train­ ing class brings us the best of spe­ cialists at a minimum of cost and ef­ fort. Not all Sunday schools have even the full quota of teachers for all the classes and very few Sunday schools have a full corps of trained teachers, so why not make up an auto load from each Sunday school of those in­ terested in teaching and come in to­ gether, thus dividing the expense and multiplying the fun.

AMERICAN SUCKERS CONTINUE NUMEROUS Notwithstanding the economic depression, the American people are buying more worthless securi­ ties at the present time than ever , before, according to c fficial reports from the Post Office Department at Washington: largely stocks, etc., advertised through the press and i having no value whatever. Washington authorities estimate ■ that a million gullible Americans ; annually lose more than a billion i: dollars through investments in i worthless securities. The desire to i get rich quick and without work has the same old lure as ever, even i when money is scarce and times are hard. ' Daily "fraud orders" running in­ : to the hundreds are issued at «Washington, but new schemes • spring up over night and an un­ .! suspicious public continues to bite.

In fact, most of our time is spent in getting what we be­ lieve will best meet our human needs; and this process of getting keeps vast numbers of machines in What Makes A few months ago The Difference? when the farmers of the nation were harvesting and endeavoring to sell their wheat there was an avalanche of statistics purporting to show that the world was buried in wheat; that the price would remain low and that the only solution was for the individ­ ual farmer to cut down his acreage. Within the past week information is given out that there will probably be a shortage in wheat and that prices will go up. Certainly, wheat prices are too low. But what has caused the shortage in the few weeks between the harvest and the present time? Probably seventy-five per cent of the producers have been forced to sell their wheat at the pittance offered at the time of harvest This wheat is now held by big business. The jump in the price of wheat will not help the vast ma­ jority of wheat producers. The ad­ vance will but serve to enrich specu­ lators who had no Interest in the crop, except as pawns in one of the world's greatest gambling games. Is it possible that the government allowed statistics to be broadcast which knowingly or unknowingly mis­ led the farmer? Is it true that the government statistics always work against the prodpeer and in favor of the wheat pit gamblers? Can there be no change in the marketing act which will work to the benefit of the producer? There are questions which will be asked. Big business should have an answer ready.—Editorial—State Rep. V.

With tender compassion he fed the multitude, “lest they faint in the way." He bade his disciples make ready for the Passover; and prepared breakfast for them after his victory over the grave. Moreover, he set a simple rule for obtaining what is nec­ essary to meet all human needs. He said, “Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.” Not one of these ‘ actions includes hurry, an­ xiety. struggle, or strife. When one sets about seeking some­ thing, he deems it wise to start out with the hope of finding. When one knocks at a door, he does so because he expects it to be opened. When one asks a favor of another, the re­ quest is made in the hope of obtain­ ing it In human affairs we are ac­ tuated by expectation and hope, and by faith in the justice, kindness, and even generosity of our fellow beings.

Bees arc. curious beasts, recognizing neither friend nor foe when it comes to the human family, and anyhow who wants to be friendly with a bee ? On an excursion to his “back 40,” one of our friends from Barryville found that a colony of bees, or swarm rather, had escaped from the hive and had decided to make their future home and establish their quarters in the midst of a large bush on the farm in the out-doors, and had formed their combs and were filling them with honey for future use. At the time of locating the bees however the weather waz getting rather se­ vere for them in their new quarter* and many had died not only from ex­ posure but from starvation, as our in­ formant, Arthur Lathrop, tells us. This bee family hud evidently moved into unsuitable quarters and the con­ dition of the swarm at the time it was discovered did not warrant mak­ ing an effort to save them. “Barber Shop Prices Reduced," reads an advertisement in The Em­ met County Graphic, and the adv. goes on to say that hair-cuts can now be had for 40c and shaves 20c, and that the same first-class service as al­ ways, will be maintained. Some of those sod-busters up in Emmet coun­ ty ahpuld come to Nashville, where the tonsorial artists do their stuff for from 20c to 30c on the hair cut and 10c for a shave. And with all due respect for the ability of the up-state barbers, our boys in the four shops in this city, ALWAYS do a good job. be the price high or low. Now, fellows, we know, because these same up­ state birds have given many exhibi­ tions of their skill on our upper story many times, and we have yet to find any better barbers or better appoint­ ed shops than our own little city of Nashville boasts, and we've been around quite a bit, as we've mention­ ed before. Lansing Bulletin ! Approximately tSOO.OOO will be add­ ed to the state's revenues in 1032 through closer supervision of the sale of truck license plates. Secretary of State Frank D. Fitzgerald estimates. In past years, truck owners have been allowed to use any sort of weight slip in certifying to the weight of trucks when securing license pistes. Starting with the 1932 plates, truck owners will be required to use official Department of State weight receipts. Without a department re­ ceipt, license plates will not be issued. In every city where the department has a branch office, one or more scales are to be designated as official and the owners will be supplied with department weight receipts. Before applying for licenses, it will be neces­ sary for owners or drivers to weigh the truck In actual operating condi­ tion. The owner and scale weighmaster then sign the receipt which will be ac­ cepted by the department in issuing plates. Last spring, several instances were discovered where truck owners wilfully attempted to defraud the state. Almost $60,000 in additional weight taxes tvern collected by de­ partment investigators from these sources. In addition, it is believed that many others pay less than ’.he legal fee because of ignorance of the actual weight of their truck. Truck and trailer license plates will be on sale at all branch offices of the department Dec. 1. The campaign being waged by the Department of Conservation against borrowing and loaning hunting li­ censes has received the apparent ap­ proval of justices of peace, who are imposing severe penalties for the vio­ lation. George A. Backscheider. Detroit, convicted of hunting on a borrowed license, was sentenced to 15 days in jail by Justice H. B. Kinney. Back­ scheider also lost a shot gun through confiscation. Rifles, shotguns, bows and arrows, steel traps and hole traps have all been used to bring down deer but the Conservation Department believes that Clifford Palmitier, Alger county, is the first to use an oar. Someone saw Palmitier follow a deer out into Munising Bay and strike it with an oar. A conservation officer was notified and Palmitier was arrested. He was not able to pay a fine of $50 and is serving a 30 days sentence in the Alger jail. Every Demand That might be made for service can be met by this organization.

Judge Higbee was speak­ ing at the opening of the afternoon session of tbe Institute on Training and Education of Children conducted by the Woman's University club in the Women’s City club auditorium, Grand Rapids. His theme was “The Practical Application of Educa­ tional Theories,” and he said that "the next constitutional amendment will require that children be made to work. Thousands of American chil­ dren are suffering for lack of work. That is not true in Europe. The oth­ er day I saw a football player who would almost be classified as a high grade moron receiving the plaudits of the admiring crowd. Next year that boy will leave high school and he’s going to have a hard time. He is go­ ing into a world full of work and he's never worked in his life. It will be very difficult for him to adjust him­ self.” Enforcement of the children's work amendment, Judge Higbee declared, would help reduce the prison popula­ tion of Michigan and its crime rate, which he characterized as a major problem and a disgrace to the state. Every boy and girl should have a chance at some happiness and suc­ cess; and it should be the social policy to prevent the birth of those who are incapable of either, said Judge Hig­ bee, after presenting problems offered by feeble-mindedness and criminality. He was applauded heartily when he went on: “You will be glad to know that in Kent county this policy is in effect. In proportion to the popula­ tion, sterilization has been going on in Kent county for the past 18 months at a greater rate than anywhere else in the world." The speakers, Dr. Rachel Stutsman of the Merrill-Palmer school, Detroit; Dr. Milton E. Kirkpatrick, director of the new child guidance clinic at Grand Rapids; Probate Judge Clark E. Hig­ bee, and Dr. Katharine Adams, prin­ cipal of the Cranbrook school for girls, covered in their addresses the training and education of children from romper days to college educa­ tion.

Thursday we are to have another Church Night program. A Potluck supper at 6:45 and this to be followed by a very interesting address by Dr. Daniels of Armenia. The speaker is competent and authoritative and has a story that is convincing. He grad­ uated from Euphrates college, spent some time to the World war. was cap­ tured by the Turks and spent nine years to their prisons. If you cannot come for the supper we will be glad to have you hear this story beginning about 7:30. Sunday is the beginning of our An­ niversary week and we hope that the people will enter into the spirit of this occasion. Tbe pastor will preach to the morning at 10:30 to the theme, "The Church We Built." What kind of a church is it? Is it large and broad and beautiful? Who can wor­ ship thereto? We will endeavor to look at our church to the light of some such questions. In the evening at 7:30 the Rev. George Osborne, pastor of our church at Hillsdale, will be here to preach. The Rev. Mr. Osborne was pastor here from 1923 to 1925. Special music will be furnished by the choir and a vocal duet by Mra. Sackett and Mrs. Cook.

Striker District By Alma Cruttenden Home Furnishing Class Met. Thursday, Nov. 12. the members of Home Furnishings das* of M. 8. C. Extension service, met at tbe home of Christa Padelfurd for an all day meet­ ing. Thirteen members were present. The forenoon was taken up by review of previous lesson and report of talks given by Mr. Foster, Mrs. Fingleton and Miss Reis regarding failure of our board of supervisors to consider continuing the county agent and ex­ tension service in our county. We rcaliz? that indeed it is time for strict economy, but if Mr. Foster saw ways possible to carry on this great work for $500, is this economy? Sup­ posing every official in our county would announce himself willing to cut himself likewise in his salary, then in­ deed we might boast of our. county’s economy. Surely anyone who has ev­ er visited our county agent has re­ ceived valuable advice and coopera­ tion and cannot but realize that he is a very busy man. In every commun­ ity where 4-H work Is carried on there are some very outstanding cases. Of course all do not excell, but do our boys and girls in school ? Usually the backward boy or girl or the ones with unfavorable home conditions are the ones who win. Indeed we hope that the January session may give it a more favorable vote. In the after­ noon a short lesson was given, then all began work on their slip covers. We are surely going to have a vpry good display and this Is proving a helpful lesson as many good chairs may now have protection and many a comfortable easy chair stored, in the attic will again be brought to a place of usefulness.

The spot­ light will be the International Live Stock Exposition, and its stages will feature a great variety of programs whose principals will be the aristo­ crats of America's animal kingdom. Record breaking entries in all de^ partments of the big exposition assure the largest show in its history, says secretary-manager B. H. Heide. From November 28 to December 5, this world renowned exposition, which brings the leading live stock men and farmers of not only the United States and Canada, but the world at large, to Chicago, will celebrate its 32nd an­ niversary In It. permanent home at the entrance to the Chicago Stock Yards.

Follow­ ing a bounteous dinner served by Mesdames Webb, Decker, Dickinson and Smith, the art of making slip covers was taken up. Three complet­ ed slip covers were on display and verified completely the teaching of the lesson. "Slip covers are for the purpose of protecting furniture from dust; to add color and cheerfulness to a room and to make old discarded furniture so that it may be used again.” Large and small chairs, liv­ ing- room and bedroom chairs were through the patience and helpfulness of our leaders, well under way to "be­ ing dressed up" before the afternoon was gone. Our next meeting will be at the home of Mrs. Palmer Dec. 8. Attended Church Re-dedication. Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Hamilton and Mrs. Ina Waite left Saturday noon for Adrian to attend the re-dedication of the Adrian Baptist church on Sun­ day, a feature of the 100th anniver­ sary of its organization. The several days’ celebration opened Wednesday with a centennial supper followed by a public program in the auditorium. A reunion night and a centennial pa£eant was presented Thursday night (ra.

Rabbits Are "Leery.” There has been a terrible scramb­ ling in this section by Brer Rabbit anr' all his relatives since reading that Odd Fellows were sort of licking their Ups in anticipation of a rabbit feed on Thursday night, and there is said to be- some anxiety in the circles of the more aristocratic Raisin Brook fam­ ilies, since the announcement was made that Milo Young and Archie Calkins were captains of contesting teams. From Sunday until Wednesday the hunt continued and Wednesday noon there were seven or eight of the "bun­ nies” turned in at Wenger’s market for "skinning," with the sides about evenly divided.

Warrants charging embezzlement and conversion were issued in Record­ er’s court at Detroit last week for Felix J. Mahler, Nathan M. Gross and Norman Lyle, former officials of the defunct Federal Bond & Mortgage company. The warrants were issued by Judge Christopher E. Stein on request of I. A. Capizzl, assistant attorney general. The warrants charge each of the de­ fendants with three acts of "embez­ zlement with account for fraudulent and unauthorized conversion of per­ sonal property." The defendants are accused of defrauding bondholders of $28,000. Mahler was vice president and sec­ retary of the company when it went into the hands of receivers last May. Lyle was vice president in charge of sales and accounting and Gross was at oqe time secretary and general manager, leaving the company in the winter of 1930. Capizzl told the court that the al­ leged frauds occurred in connection with a bond issue of $180,000 on a Detroit apartment house. He said that «fter the mortgage was paid off by the mortgagee the three officers of the company did not pay off all the bondholders. Mahler and Gross also are defend­ ants in two civil suits started by the Detroit Trust Company as receiver in its efforts to recover $1,100,000 in frauds and assets of the company. Mahler, Lyle and Gross pleaded not guilty when arraigned in recorder’s court on warrants charging embezzle­ ment and conversion of $28,000. Entered Bellevue Garages. Six private garages tn Bellevue were entered a week ago Saturday night and large quantities of gasoline taken, together with fishing tackle, an auto robe and some tools. About 50 gallons of gasoline were secured. At Volney Johnson's residence, where three garages were-entered, including the adjoining garages of SupL Wayne Beery and H. L. McLeod, a garden hose belonging to Mr. Johnson was cut in short lengths and used to sy­ phon the gasoline from the tanks of the cars. Th«* three other garages entered were those of Frank Latty, C. D. Kimberly and Ted Mann. None of them were locked. The officers working on the case have no definite clues as to the identity of the thieve*, except that a truck was used to trans­ port the loot Several months ago a number of garages were entered and cars stripped of various parts, and it is thought the thefts was the work of the same parties.

C. Smith, director, and his assistant, Mrs. Leia Roe, who had charge of the music. Adding to the "show” were musical numbers by the high school orchestra, the chorus, and in conclu­ sion the high school song by all the cast and chorus. "Wild Ginger,” according to those who are familiar with the school “acting" of other days, was the best show yet. Star Theater with an en­ larged stage, made an excellent play­ house for the presentation for the three act play, in which the cast of charac'ers was as follows: Mr. Petersen—Harold Wenger. Miss Stanley—Helen Maurer. Wuzy—Voyle Varney. Marwood Lakey—Russell Partridge. Bonita Lakey—Louise Lentz. Virginia (Wild Ginger)—Jean Roe. Jake Tallman—Kenneth Roscoe. Geoffrey Freeman — George Wot­ ring. Mr. Lakey—Vidian Roe. Miz Walker—Inez Nesbitt.

Marjorie Gillett. Ferae Schulze was the pian­ ist. and Everett Couch and Claris Greenfield the stage managers. Winter And Zero Weather In West; t Is Very Mild Here ANNIVERSARY BEGAN WITH SUNDAY SERVICE Large Congregation Gathers At 10:30 To Unite In The Service Of Song, Prayer, And Worship. CHURCH IS DECORATED WITH FLOWERS, PLANTS Ings See Still Larger Audiences (By Edith Parks.) Sunday Morning. Against a golden background of sunshine, flowers, and smiles, the Methodist church began to celebrate Its Golden Anniversary Sunday morn­ ing*. November 22. As a symbol of the gold, a bouquet of large yellow chrysanthemums, presented by 'Mr. and Mrs. J. E. McElwain of Hastings in honor of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Marshall, held a place of honor. A large congregation gathered at 10:30 to unite in the service of song, prayer and worship. The choir sang "Incline Thine Ear," by Himmel, af­ ter which Rev. S. J. Francis preach­ ed to the theme. "The Church We Build." He said that the greatest fault in building a church was not to buildUt too small for the congrega­ tion, serious as that is, but rather to build it too small for God. Our great­ est lack in the modem church is not lack of space but of breadth of ideas. OUr church is too small when it does not give room for those who differ from us, when it excludes those of different racial, intellectual and social groups. It was once advertised In New York City that Jesus would preach there the next day. Everyone wanted to hear Him, but it was not­ iceable that no one went to his own church to seek Him. "If Jesus came to Nashville, where would He preach, where would you go to hear Him? Is. this church big enough to hold Him?’* The congregation united in singing "The Church's One Foundation is Jesus Christ her Lord.” Everyone left the service feeling that it was a good omen for the success of the whole week's program. Sunday Evening. At 7:30 even a larger congregation met to hear Rev. George Osborne of Hillsdale, who preached here, in the years 1923-1925. Special music was the anthem, “The King of Love Thy Shepherd Is." and a duet, “Crown Him” (Ciro Pinsutl), by Mrs. Cook and Mrs. Sackett. Rev. Osborne took as his text Exodus 3:5-9; “For the place whereon thou standest is holy ground.” He compared Moses to our Mississippi river system, each In­ fluence in his life corresponding to one of the tributary rivers. Then he spoke of our own church and the many people who had lent their in­ fluence in making the ground whereon we stand, holy ground. Of this large group he mentioned three by name: Grandma Coe, Albert Lentz and Mrs. J. B. Marshall.

Of course the regular golfing sea­ son is over and about al! the "hooters” of the little pill do nowadays is to grab a club these extremely nice fall afternoons and take a little trip around the course just for the love of being outdoors. But the incident that recently came to our notice relates to a foursome that was played on the links at the county seat last season. (Nashville does not boast a regular course, just a “pony” one at present.) This foursome was indulged in by four quite well known business and profes­ sional men, one of whom happened to be a gentleman of the doth. (You can find out for yourself what this phrase means.) In the course of the game luck seemed to have pocketed skill and taken a seat in the bleachers to watch the play and players. The play was, wen, it wasn’t very good, the temper at the players fully match­ ed their efforts in scoring, and the mounting figures on the tally cards. The feelings of “some” of the play­ ers were assuaged by using words said to be absent from the Japanese language, but even this relief is denied to others. However it is alleged that the dose of the match found many small, round, brown, scorched spots on the turf, in fact the grass seemed to be shriveled up and withered. Of course there is a reason for all things, and there is an alleged rea­ son for the above, but it is not in the province of this columnist to do any “alleging.” One of the trials of a newspaper man's life is the booster edition guy who comes along and tries to show him how a little easy money can be had by taking the merchants of Main street for a little financial journey. A lot of the boys fall for this stuff— they used to in the old days and the boobs in the newspaper game are not all twanging a “used” harp yet, and they are not hard to find when you look over your exchanges carefully. In these days when the business man is being continually besieged to in­ vest in the thousands of schemes whose promoters promise the blue moon or any old thing, is is always well to consult with the home town publisher, to find out w’hat the possi­ ble value of returns is going to be; if he does that he is not going tb be of­ ten led astray.

We're not handing ourselves any compliments and do not claim to be wizards at this game, but we’ve been around quite a bit. and if we do say it our advice on matters of this sort is quite well worth asking. We’ve been around quite a bit, in fact we went to Vermontville the oth­ er afternoon in the rain and mussed the old cart up some with mud, but were Informed by the “driver” on the right-hand seat that it would wash off. but this is beside the story. The writer stepped into a confectionery store on Main street the other day. just one of many times that we have been in this store, but had just got around to tell you about it. We have visited a great many places of this sort in various cities and have yet to find one even in the larger cities that compares favorably with this one lo­ cated in Nashville. The assortment of fruits and candies is a most com­ plete one. the wants of the smoker are well taken care of with the best brands of popular cigars, cigarettes and tobaccos, and the other things that a smoker is looking for. The needs of ice cream lovers are catered to with a large fountain, several ser­ vice tables, and rows of attractive booths arranged on either side of the back store room. All in all this “coufectatorium” operated by “Smil­ ing Charlie,” and his efficient wife, la a most pleasant place to frequent when you are in quest of “sweets” and ••smokes.” Lansing Bulletin ! Nearly 700,000 copies of the various books and pamphlets published by the Department of State, will be distrib­ uted this year. Before the end of the year, the de­ partment will have published 23 dif­ ferent books. Under state laws, the Secretary of State is charged with the publication and distribution of books and pamphlets dealing with various laws. Prior io the 1931 session of the legislature, these pamphlets were dis­ tributed free of charge but the pres­ ent law requires the department to sell the publications at cost The cost in most instances, except for the leg­ islative manual and Public Acts, runs from five to 15 cents. Most in demand is the pamphlet containing motor vehicle laws and it is expected that 535,000 copies will be distributed before the end of the fis­ cal year. Interest in schools will re­ quire 26,000 pamphlets containing laws on schools and education. The most expensive publication put out by the department is the legisla­ tive manual. This year it cost $18,­ 200 to print 16,000 copies, while the Public Acts cost $14,400 to print 13,­ 000 copies. A large part of this money is returned to the state through sales of the books. Other publications are the Local Acts of 1931, reports of the county Superintendents of the Poor, reports of Sheriffs, report of the building and loan division and compilations of laws on the following subjects: Insurance, banking, highways and bridges, cities, public health, schools, elections, corporations, housing, vil­ lages, aeronautics, railroads and pub­ lications. The final item is the Constitution of the State of Michigan and the annual demand for the state’s basic law re­ quires about 3,000 copies.

And any continued constipation al that time of life may bring attacks of piles and a host of other unpleasant disorders. Watch your bowels nt any age. Guard them with particular care after forty.

Thursday night at 7:15 we resume our Religious Study of the Psalms. The one we will give our attention to is Psalm 27. The pastor hopes that the interest will continue through the coming weeks and that many folks will have a working knowledge of these great poems and songs. Our District Superintendent, Dr. Clark S. Wheeler, will be with us Sunday morning to preach the ser­ mon at 10:30 o'clock. In the after­ noon at 2:30 o’clock he will be at Ma­ ple Grove and after this service at that church will be held the First Quarterly conference. The folks of Nashville are invited to the service but especially do we hope for your presence at the conference. Reports will be given by the trustees and membership committee and verbal re­ ports from the heads of the various auxiliaries of the church. Sunday evening at 7:30 o’clock we are privileged to hear Miss Hutzel of the Department of Health, Lansing. She will give her helpful and inspir­ ing address on "The Physical, Mental and Moral Development of the Child.” This is a timely theme and every’ par­ ent ought to be present.

Its origin is । lost in the maze of traditions that surround these festivities, but grad­ uates for several decades recall the monument as an important part in homecoming activities. Its design varies each year, sometimes a gigan­ tic I, a lighthouse or, as this year, a reproduction of the Washington mon­ ument The main part of the struc­ ture is of golden corn, the symbol of Iowa and the university's color.

Vandenberg To Show Plans To Senate EATON COUNTY VIGILANTES TO BE SPECIAL DEPUTIES Senator Vandenberg of Grand Rap­ ids. who has been working all sum­ mer on means of liberalizing the fed­ eral reserve rediscount system, was to be invited to present his plans be­ fore the senate bank group this week. The committee will map an economy program, as urged by Hoover for the 72nd congress. A comprehensive measure designed to prohibit the use of federal facili­ ties in stock market speculations and to curb chain banking will be laid be­ fore the committee by its chairman. Sen. Glass, Democrat, of Virginia. The proposed legislation is an out-, growth of the gigantic stock market boom and subsequent collapse in 1929. It was framed qjter lengthy hearings by the committee' in an effort to put the federal banking system beyond the reach of speculative activities. Pending committee discussions which will be in executive session. Sen. Glass is withholding his own views on the banking legislative prob­ lem. He has made it plain, however, that he will not sanction any extend­ ed loosening up of the federal re­ serve system in an effort to meet simply emergency questions. On Wednesday evening of this week the Eaton County Vigilantes, an organization of men who are called upon in time of bank robbery or oth­ er emergency, were to be guests of the Eaton County Bankers' associa­ tion at a dinner to be given at the Robinson Tee-Off in Charlotte. Each bank was to banquet the vigilantes of its own town. There are in the neighborhood of 50 of these special guardsmen in the county, and they were to be asked to sign up as spe­ cial deputy sheriffs, which act will authorize ’ them to carry concealed weapons.

Livestock Marketing Tour Attracts Depositors’ Agreements Must Be Signed And Returned To Receiv­ About 300 From This And Near­ er Before Dec. 22. by Counties. More than three hundred farmers in Kent, E^ton and Barry counties made reservations to go on the live­ stock marketing tour to Detroit to­ day, O. B. Price, secretary of the Michigan Livestock Loss Prevention association, has previously announced. The Michigan Central railroad granted excursion rates to the far­ mers and operated a special train ov­ er the Grand Raplds-Detrolt division. The train, made up in Grand Rapids, ran to Caledonia for its first passen­ gers, then came stops at Middleville, Hastings, Nashville, Vermontville, Charlotte and Eaton Rapids, with the special due in Detroit at 8:20 a. m. Arriving at Detroit after 150 miles of travel, the party left the train at the Detroit stock yards, where break­ fast was served by the Michigan Livestock Exchange. The party was then conducted through the Detroit stock yards, where the bulk of the Michigan live­ stock is sold. Then came a visit to the Detroit Junior Livestock show and attendance at the sale of this show. After seeing the grand champion and other fine steers sold, and eating lunch .the party will have a bus ride to view Detroit and its industries, and then back to the Michigan Central station at 5 p. mM when they will have an opportunity to rest and buy souvenirs for a half hour. Once on the train, there will be a great treat, a high class dinner in the dining car, with service by the steward and his colored waiters. All in all, a big time. Xmas Party Is To Be Given By Informant Numerous Prizeo And Stunta Prom­ ise Everyone A Good Time —Gifts Obtain Admission. The Informant is sponsoring a big Christmas party on Dec. 21, the Mon­ day before Christmas. Admission to this party is one or more toys which are valued at at least 20c. These toys will be distributed among the children in the lower grades at their Christmas parties. The Informant is backing this par­ ty, and all high school students are urged to come. There will be danc­ ing and games, and in general we'll have one swell time. Refreshments will be served later in the evening. Prizes will be given, and special en­ tertainment is promised. There will not be a dull moment for anyone. The big event of the evening will be the surprise given to the class which has the most of their members pres­ ent. Another will be awarded to the class which puts on the best stunt. The judges will be Mr. VanDeventer, Mr. Wallace and Mr. Reed. Class presidents will be asked to get their classes together and see what they can do. The Freshmen are all up in the air about it and they promise to have something that will knock your eye out and put all the other classes to shame. We had Letter watch out before we tell their secrets. Come and then you'll be sure to not misj anything, and your attendance will help your class, and your gift will make some child happy. Well, Merry Christmas to all. and to all a good-night!—The Informant. Depositors of the closed Nashville. State bank are again reminded that a meeting has been-called for deposi­ tors at the Masonic Temple in this village at 2:00 p. m., December 22, and that it is for the best interest of everyone to attend this meeting if possible. But it is urged that every depositor, whether you have a large or small sum of money involved, sign circulated by E. B. Finley Jr., receivcirculated by J. B. Finley, the receiv­ er, a fac-simile of which was publish­ ed in The News last week, or clip the one from the paper, sign and take or mail it to the bank at once. The hope of reorganization now de­ pends solely upon the depositors, and the promptness with which you sign and return the copy of your agree­ ment will greatly facilitate matters. It Is the advice of Mr. Finley not to wait until the day of the meeting to sign and present the agreement, but to do so at once, either by mail or a personal call at the bank. NoW is the time .if ever, to show your confidence and loyalty to your, town, to your bank, and to realize to the full what the term "cooperation” means to you and everyone. According to Mr. Finley, it is hard to understand the attitude being tak­ en by some of the depositors in de­ laying the signing of the agreement, when upon the number of signatures obtained depends the success or fail­ ure of the plan of reorganization. It is the only hope of saving this insti­ tution from a forced liquidation, and your loyalty to your town, your com­ munity ana to yourself, will scarcely allow any such calamity to befall it, and calamity will be a meager ex­ pression in this case, meaning abso­ lute ruin to many people. It is one thing that is absolutely unthinkable by any fair-minded person. In justice to yourself, your friends and your neighbors, see that your copy of the agreement is property signed and presented at the bank without further delay and urge your friends to do the same. Mr. Finley wishes The News to state that the new bank will be headed by an en­ tirely new management and a new board of directors is to be in charge, that should be satisfactory to the community and who will act for the best interests of all.

Sunday morning at 10:30 o’clock the pastor will bring the sermon, preaching to the theme, "Thinking with our Prejudices.” When one stops to consider this question he dis­ covers how mahy times people do pre­ judge folks and how very difficult it is not to permit some knowledge or bias to influence his judgment. It is so common and destructive that we need to give it serious attention. At the evening service. 7:30 o’clock, we are going to have an ex­ ceedingly interesting and beautiful service in the form of an illustrated story. Mrs. Chester Smith,* well known reader, is going to give that charming story of Henry VanDyke, "The Other Wise Man." We have se­ cured a set of slides that wdll go with this story and help it live before you. This Is a very significant tale of the Christ and will be a fitting beginning for the Christmas season. On Sunday evening, Dec. 20, the Christmas program will be given.

I Repeated queries about how a far­ mer can lose money in conducting his business for a period of years and still continue to operate his farm are partially answered by the study made by the farm management department at Michigan State college, which shows the value of'the farm products used by the farmer and his family. Fifty-one of the 486 farmers who kept farm accounts under the super­ vision of the farm management de­ partment kept accurate records of the farm products and the fuel used in the household. These records show that the average value of the home grown products used was $372.­ 47. This is the farm value of the products, not the retail value from stores. The records show that the only home grown farm product used by every one of the 51 was potatoes. Milk was the next in rank, with 50 families using this product of the home dairy. Thirty-seven families used home made butter. Some of the farmers who kept these records sold whole milk on the Detroit market and purchased butter for household use. Two farms out of those reporting did not use eggs from the farm flock, and five did not eat any of their own poultry. Only five of the farms had their own mutton for use on the fam­ ily table. Twenty of the 51 ate beef grown on the farm and 35 used their own pork. Thirty-one of these farmers burned wood from their woodlot; the others used coal or other fuel purchased at retail prices. The farmers who burn­ ed wood used an average of 33.6 cords with a farm value for the year of $81.13. FaW Ft™ ristmas Bells & Will Soon Be Ringing ONLY TWO WEEKS MORE IN WHICH TO BUY.

Another of Nashville’s prominent residents, Mrs. Nellie Parrott, for 32 years a resident of this village, has passed on. Death came to her at 2:30 Monday afternoon at her home on Middle street, following a decline of several years. Her demise was due to cancerous trouble, which had confined her to her home for three and a half months and for nine weeks to her bed. Despite her suffering and long illness, she was apparently expectant of recovery. Mrs. Parrott, in girlhood Nellie Beach, was a daughter of Asel and Mary Beach, pioneers of Johnstown, where she was reared and then mar­ ried to Charles Parrott, a native of England, who came to Johnstown as a small boy with his parents, who took up land there and were also a pioneer family.

Mr. Meyer is conducting a training course for Cub leaders at the Scout building in Battle Creek. This is a part of the wonderful training system • approved and adopted by T. Ben Johnston, Area Executive. The Area Council winter camp will be held at Sherman lake six days, be­ ginning Dec. 26th, the cost per boy is $5.00. according to announcement made by T. Ben Johnston, Area Ex­ ecutive. Boys often say that . they have a better time at winter camp than at summer camp. The boys sleep on a balcony which extends around three sides of the large mess hall. Camp registration will be lim­ ited so that all boys planning to at­ tend should register at Scout Head­ quarters or notify their Scout Master at once. All winter sports are avail­ able and Scout advancement is espe­ cially stressed. Come on. Scouts, let’s all be there! The Boy Scouts of America devel­ oped. during several years of testing and expenmentation, a program for boys of pre-Scout age (9-10-11). It is presented to the boys of the United States in the interests of the growth of big ideals, useful doing and world friendship. This program is known as "Cubbing" and is under the direc­ tion of the Cub section, Boy Scouts of America. ' Advancement is by several stages. "She novitiate period takes the boy as a-JBobcat. Yle then follows the legen­ dary history and training of "Akela” (Spirit of Leadership), the child of the mythical tribe of We-Be-Lo-S (We’ll be loyal!), through the stages or knowledge as signified by the Wolf, the Bear, the Lion, and thence to the Scout The achievements of the Wolf, Bear and Lion are graduated and follow these subjects; flag, safety, feats of skill, health, home, school and church help, handicraft, collections, games, scrap book, knots and ropes, and hob­ bies. These hobbies offer a wide field for variation. Some of these elective subjects are: secret codes, make-be­ lieve pantomime, specialized handi­ crafts, radio, electricity, model boats air-craft, farm and home tools, things that go, simple machines, craft gifts Indian crafts, music, drawing, read­ ing, nature, animals and pets, garden, sous, bachelor cooking, camping, know your city, safety, and special electives. The Lion Cub prepares in all the requirements of the Tenderfoot Scout grade so that he may become a Boy SvJUt just as soon as he reaches l.s twelf a birthday. Submitted by C. E. Hyatt, Cub­ master, J’ack No. 8. ’The Cub gives good will." This is the fourth and last part of the law of thi Cub Pack, governing the dailj .xfe of these nine to twelve yeai old boys. This idea of friendship and good will is carried out in one of the Cub advancement achievements. Each Cub is reqv red to write friendly let­ ters to brot er Cubs in foreign lands. These re aired letters often form the banning of a continued exchange of good wiu, and may eventually be a great force for international friend­ ship. The Cjbe of Hastings Pack No. 1, of the Presbyterian church, are tak’Ag an active part in this program. Letters have already been dispatched to Scotland and to Canada Direct contact has also been made with the Korean mission fields so that letters may be exchanged with brother Cubs on the other side of the world. Boys from 73 countries of the world are organized in Boy Scouting. In 32 of these 73 countries they have Cubbing for the younger boy. This widespread organization gives the Barry county boy a great field for ex­ tension of a series of personal friend­ hips. . The Hastings pack !s offering this program opportunity to all Barry county boys of Cub and of Scout ages.

"Christian Science” is the subject of the Lesson-Sermon in all Christian Science Churches on Sunday, Decem­ ber 27. Among the citations which com­ prise the Lesson-Sermon is the fol­ lowing from the Bible: "Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me." (John 14:1). The Lesson-Sermon also includes the following passage from the Chris­ tian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy: “Science is an emanation of divine Mind, and is alone able to interpret God aright. It has a spiritual, and not a material origin. It is a divine utterance.—the Com­ forter which leadetn into all truth." (p. 127). A sneeze, the herald of approach­ ing winter, was blamed for an auto­ mobile accident, at Lorain, Ohio. George Jennings told police he lost control of his car and struck another when he sneezed.

Michigan Truck Crop Thia Year Enormous Production Is Valued At More Thau Seventeen Millions of Dollars, Is Asserted. The value of seventeen commercial truck and canning crops produced in Michigan during 1931 amounted to $7,559,000, according to the report re­ leased by Irvin Holmes. Assistant Agricultural Statistician, and Herbert E. Powell, Commissioner of Agricul­ ture. This is about two and one-half million dollars less than the estimate for the 1930 crop, but only slightly less than that of the 1929 production. These figures, based upon the report­ ed average seasonal prices paid to producers, are for total or gross pro­ duction, and do not represent cash In­ come. Celery continued to lead in import­ ance among the state’s truck crops, the late crop being valued at $1,362,­ 000 and the intermediate crop at $732,000. Together they account for 28 per cent of the total value of the INJURED IN ACCIDENT leading truck crops.
