An Extortion Threat For Mrs. Wesley Worst Own Cousin Of Fortner Marguerite Snore Malls Dvtnand Of $200 For “Robert Adams." * The final meeting of the year for the Nashville Chamber of Commerce was held at Odd Fellow hall Monday evening, with twenty-eight members and two guests in attendance. After the customary fine feed, prepared and served by the Rebekah ladies, had been enjoyed, President R. V. Hess conducted the routine business and then introduced the speaker of the evening, Proscuting Attorney Archie D. McDonald of Hastings. Mr. McDonald chose his own sub­ ject, and gave an informal and inter­ esting talk on his conception of the law profession, labelling it as a "ser­ vice" rather than a "business," and terming those of his calling who were concerned in giving their clients their best efforts in solving legal problems as real representatives of the profes­ sion, and condemning the “shyster lawyers" and "ambulance chasers." He also spoke briefly of his exper­ iences as prosecutor, and read ex­ cerpts of the state law outlining the jurisdiction and duties of this office. Mr. Hebert, manager of the Star Theater, was a guest at the meeting, and reported that he intended holding Saturday afternoon matinees at re­ duced admission prices, for the bene­ fit of the rural folks, and solicited the cooperation of the business men in an advertising plan. A survey of the merchants present showed that the proposition met with their hearty ap­ proval. At the conclusion of the meeting Mr. Hebert extended a cor­ dial invitation to those present to be his guest -at the Star Theater to wit­ ness the regular Monday night offer­ ing, Jack Benny in "It’s in the Air." An extortion threat from a cousin, who faces federal punishment through use of the mails, is the latest trouble which Mrs. Wesley Worst of Cold­ water. formerly Marguerite Snore of Nashville, has had to face.

Trinity church bells, New York City, proclaim the New Year and the attendant noisy New Years Eve cele­ bration of Times Square follows over the radio. . 1936 is here with its uncharted seas before us. Let us go forth, undaunt­ ed by the confusion about us. with courage and loyalty, as did the Min­ ute Men of Revolutionary days, alert, purposeful, with a vision that trans­ cends our own problems, and embrac­ es those of all men, a vision of peace and prosperity, and peace for a weary nerve strained world, the Peace that passeth all understanding, protects and leads us as nations and individ­ uals in right paths. Let us all try to remember the bro­ therhood of man, our duty to God and man. and try to do the work that seems to be ours, to the best of our God-given ability, knowing that in this great material world change (in which we are living), that God re­ mains ever the same and that we are all here for a purpose with a particu­ lar work to do. If we al! do this appointed work, this civilization will continue with prosperity for all. Achievement And Sorrow. Achievement of some great vision, Gave Three Belling*. In One Evening Visited Laurence Gariinger’*, Harry Emery's, And Then To Town To Lester Wilson's. There was considerable holiday and nuptial music "on the air" Monday night, but it didn't come in over the radio. The large orchestra, with its varied instruments, gave three con­ certs. with Ellis Gariinger as leader. There were about 75 in the com­ pany for this "early engagement,” which was really a "serenade" and treat at the new home of Laurence Gariinger and bride in Castleton. After a pleasant call, the party vis­ ited Harry Emery and bride, also of Castleton, married just recently, where the music, treat and visit were repeated. t And then a goodly number, still ready for a good time, came on to Nashville and gave Lester Wilson and bride, just married Saturday night, a “varied musical" program. They had to wait a little for the treat, but they had a pleasant visit, and the neighbors had an opportunity of hearing this large "orchestra” on the aid. In other words, they gave three charivaris in one evening to close rel­ atives or immediate friends, with no "casualties."

Grand Rapids, a very lovely and varied display of modern and 18th century furniture samples was being assembled the first of the week for the January and February market, which will bring together wholesale and retail furniture dealers and buyers from all over the country for what seems very likely a very successful two weeks furniture show and which should result in the book­ ing of many orders for the local plant L. E. Lentz, F. C. Lentz, Carl Lentz and Lentz Chaffee will all attend the market, as the shop will close for the customary inventory and repairs. The market comes on the heels of a report by Seidman & Seidman. pub­ lic accountants, in a Grand Rapids dispatch, that more orders Were book­ ed by the industry during November, 1935, than for any November in the last five years, and that they were nearly 50 per cent greater than in November, 1934.

Saturday at the home of his daughter Mrs. A. W. Embury of Jackson, after an illness which de­ veloped Thanksgiving Day at the home of another daughter, Mrs. Fred Robinson of Hastings, and which fol­ lowed a period of ill health. He had been brought to his son's, Francis Evans, in Maple Grove after his seiz­ ure of Thanksgiving Day, where he remained two weeks before going to Mrs. Embury's home. Mr. Evans was a plumber and tin­ ner by trade and was employed in turn by Boise Bros., Brattin, Glasgow and Pratt hardware stores of Nash­ ville, retiring to farm life because of an injury to his eye from a piece of sheet iron, the injury in time affecting the other eye. For 15 years he engaged in farm­ ing in Maple Grove township, ceasing only as infirmities came upon him. Through his work as plumber and tinner, and then as farmer, he had enjoyed a wide acquaintance and was highly esteemed. He was born at Bellevue on April 14, 1857, and married Mary Jane Coats May 8, 1879. Mrs. Evans pass­ ed away Aug. 3, 1928.

Clare E. Hoffman.) ket.—Adrian Daily Telegram. During the trying times through which the world has been passing, all too hopemany men, after an apparently _ less struggle against adverse condi­ tions, have yielded to what has seem­ ed fate and have acknowledged help­ lessness and defeat This has been so Widespread that the recently coined term “defeatism" was needed to des­ cribe the mental attitude involved. But this mental state is not new, nor are the conditions unique which have occasioned it, for defeatism Is inher­ ent In the carnal or mortal mind. When the children of Israel after their escape from Egypt came to the Red Sea and were close pressed by Phr rank's pursuing hosts, doubt and dismay handled the Israelites. But Moses said to them (Exodus 14:13), “Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will shew to you today." Moses first rout­ ed the dismay and distrust which were using his people; and then they were ready to witness the destruction of Pharaoh’s army. The children of Israel were similarly mesmerized by fear and the belief in evil when in the wilderness of Sin they complained to Moses and gloomily foretold starva­ tion for themselves. Their dauntless leader, however, looked away from material sense testimony to God, and then Love's providence and power were proved. "The children of Israel did eat manna forty years, until they came to a land inhabited.” (Exodus 16:35). The suggestion of utter defeat and disappointment cyne to and was ac­ cepted by many of Christ Jesus’ dis­ ciples after his crucifixion. And dur­ ing his tragic and trying experiences similar arguments of the carnal mind were presented to the Master also, for, as the writer of the epistle to the Hebrews states (4:15), he “was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin." During his three years’ ministry Christ Jesus completely dis­ proved the claims of evil and mater­ ialism. He healed blindness, deafness, lunacy and disease of all sorts; he re­ buked sin as a falsity, and thus for­ gave and liberated those who had been bound by their belief that sin was attractive and influential. He conquered lack and limitation when he fed the multitudes in the desert. Thrice he confuted “the last enemy" when it appeared that death had pre­ vailed. This prepared the Master for his final test and triumph, wherein he rose from the tomb and later ascend­ ed above all material beliefs and con­ ditions. After her discovery of Christian Science and the presentation thereof in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" Mary Baker Eddy met with opposition and opprobrium ex­ pressed through those from whom she hoped to receive encouragement and support. In establishing the Christion Science movement she gave of herself without stint, and more than once she faced deprivation and lack— she was tempted by defeatism. But this brave, unselfish woman trusted God and was led safely through deep waters and fiery trials. She knew that Christian Science is of God, and that He always protects and prospers His own. Mrs. Eddy’s unselfed love for God and mankind inspired her with courage, strength, and wisdom. She states in Science and Health (pp. 226, 227) “I saw before me the awful conflict, the Red Sea and the wilder­ ness; but I pressed on through faith in God trusting Truth, the strong deliv­ erer, to guile me into the land of Christian Science, where fetters fall and the rights of man are fully known and acknowledged." The ranks of Christian Science are recruited largely from those who in times of distress and despair found material means and methods inade­ Upon quate to meet their needs, many of them the sentence of death had been pronounced by reputable and conscientious doctors of medicine who found nothing to build upon and saw no reason for offering hope. Then Christian Science came to the rescue armed with the omnipotence of di­ vine Love, and, building upon spirit­ ual reality, replaced discouragement and hopelessness with God-inspired confidence and thus brought light and healing. Such healings naturally be­ get deep gratitude to God, and this in turn acta as an effective preventive against suggestions of defeat and de­ jection. During timea when business has ap­ peared to be engulfed in a maelstrom of fear and confusion many students of Christian Science have been enabl-. ed to reject and rise above the Sa­ tanic arguments of helplessness and despair by knowing that their true business consists Ln reflecting divine Mind, expressing spiritual qualities, such as intelligence, unselfishness gratitude, alertness and confidence. They have proved that the applied Defeatism. Mary Kellogg Gloster THE GLOSTERS, Ltd. Outside State. 11.50 12.00 C. Lorbeck. Clerk—H. F. Remington. Amon E. Dull, Wm. Martin, E. B.

He was Michigan’s first highway com­ missioner and during his term of of­ fice from 1905 to 1909, he sold the concrete road idea to the country, al­ though Edwin Denby ,& former Sec­ ' retary of the Navy, characterized his , idea as “a most dangerous proposi­ tion.’’ Under his supervision was laid the first strip of concrete highway in the world, a section of Woodward ’ Avenue.

In view of the frequent We’re Prophets. errors of the weather bu­ reau, and the still more frequent errors of those who try to forecast wars and the stock market. The Telegram mbdestly points to its own recent success in prophecy. The state liquor commission had ruled that the lid would be on tight New Year's eve, but Monday we prophesied that the commission would reverse itself and that the year’s end would be wide open. We just had time to get it printed when the pro­ phecy came true. We call that 100 per cent efficiency. But it didn’t take so very much smartness, after all. Anybody could do it right at home, without a crystal ball, a deck of cards, or any other magic apparatus. We just remember­ ed that the commission had ordered a dry New Year’s eve, so we said it would be wet because the commission habitually reverses itself. It’s as sim­ ple as that; try it yourself.

The state of Michigan closed its financial year on Dec. 31, with its general fund in the "black" as well as all sinking fund requirements met This is the first time in many years that January 1 of a new year has found the state so well set Naturally, an explanation of the change is In or­ der. First, the governor has rigidly in­ sisted that all appropriations be con­ sidered as fixed and final and that ov­ erdrafts were absolutely out of the question. Under his direction the bud­ gets have been divided into twelve equal parts, and each department must keep within its monthly allow­ ance. This naturally caused the var­ ious money spending agencies of the state to use the same care a house­ holder would use in fixing the monthly expenditures. The governor is oldfashioned in that to him an appro­ priation is an appropriation and may not be exceeded. Then there have been Increased rev­ enues mainly from two sources, the sa’es tax and the profits from the Li­ quor Control commission. The 1935 legislature repealed sections of the sales tax applying to agricultural sup­ plies used by manufacturers. It was freely predicted at the time that this would cause a deficit of about $5.­ 000.000. but instead of this deficit we find an actual Increase of over $6.­ 000,600, and this figure may be great­ ly increased when the year’s totals are determined. This increase is par­ tially due to a decided upturn in busi­ ness, but to even a greater extent it is due to increased aedvities on the part of the sales tax department.

This Is supplemented by drills and dlacusalons away from the switchboard. When the Bell Telephone System established the first training cours* for telephone operators, in January, 1902, tn New York City, one of the pioneer steps in vocational training was undertaken. Since then, voca­ tional training has become wide­ spread, not only in telephone ser­ vice but in many other industries. Learned as Best They Could In the early days of the telephone, new operators learned what they learned without a great deal of teaching. The training was brief and, as it were, casual. Newly en­ gaged operators were taken to the switchboard, shown what plugs and jacks were, how to get a number, and a few other elementary facts, and were then permitted to listen-in on older operators handling actual calls. After a few days of this, they were allowed to handle calls them­ selves, with the coaching and as­ sistance of experienced operators beside whom they were seated. Points of such great Importance to­ day as the tone of voice to use were not even mentioned in those early pioneer days. , tal. The equipment of the school | consisted of a room furnished after . the manner of a typical schoolroom, which was used for lectures and study periods, and an operating room. The latter duplicated, as nearly as possible, the equipment of an actual central office, with a twelve-position switchboard, a chief operator’s desk, and other equip­ ment The routine of the course Included presentation, both in the classroom and at the switchboard, of the op­ erating instruction to be learned tor the day; follow-up Instruction and practice at the switchboard, the supervisors putting through from their desk calls involving particular points covered in the day’s lesson; and considerable time spent in study in the classroom. Trained Many Thousand Operators So successful was the establish­ ment of the training school in New York that it was soon followed by the opening of similar courses in Chi­ cago, Philadelphia, Boston, Denver, and other large cities, and later in other centers throughout the Bell System. . Within the past few years, the First Training Course Established training of telephone operators has Finally, the need of a training course became apparent, and the entered into still another phase. In a way, it is reminiscent of the old first school for operators was estab­ lished in New York City in January, days when a new recruit learned her job by sitting at the switchboard 1902.

At either side of the new­ comer are experienced girls, busy with their work. The position to which the new operator Is assigned is identical with the others at the board, except that it has a key which cuts it off from the rest of the switch­ board and protects the service against disturbance by practice calls. Actual Calls Are Simulated The student is seated at such a position and is given some in­ formal instruction in the handling of calls. Then a specially trained operator takes another position, known us th© "control position", from which she can simulate the calls that will have to be handled by the new operator when she is given actual work to do. Under such guidance, the student operator sets up connections which are in every respect like actual calls. When she becomes proficient at this, she Is given an opportunity to handle ac­ tual calls during light traffic periods, and thus she works into her job almost without being aware of IL This might be termed a process of learning by doing. It is supple­ mented by discussion of operating practices, and drills, conducted away from the switchboard. Classes are held, but the groups of students are made small so as to keep the atmosphere of the classes informal and giving them rather the aspect of discussion groups. Training Never Ends As a result of these new training methods now in use, the operator at once begins to become accustomed to the atmosphere of the particular central office where she is to work and thus becomes a part of it Even after a girl has been given actual traffic to handle, her training is not regarded as completed. In fact, an operator's j raining Is never finished; one of the objectives of the present system is to give the operator the c/pat • -nity of always learning to do her work belter. . �Cost, $278,130. well at this writing.

Requests for showings have been re­ ceived from schools, social and civic organizations of all kinds, church groups and various health units, it was reported. The twenty minute film opens with the death of a small child from tuber­ culosis and continues with the search that is made for the spreader of the disease.. When the source ts finally located, through the aid of the tuber­ culin test and the x-ray, the need for modem sanatorium treatment is de­ monstrated. The film is concluded with a review of the modem weapons which are today being employed In the fight against tuberculosis. NEWSPAPERS ARE BEST ADVERTISING MEDIUM The supremacy of newspapers as the world's best medium for dissemi­ nation of news and molding of public opinion is not endangered by radio, moving pictures or future television, according to Winston Churchill, Eng­ lish statesman. Writing in-Collier’s magazine, he expressed the belief that "both Eng­ land and America cun be proud of their press." “In other countries whose people are less intelligent or where educa­ tion is less careful of the Individual mind,” be said, “the future dt public­ ity may lie with radio ana moving pictures, under dictatorships the press is bound to languish, and the loud-speaker and film to become even more important. But where free in­ stitutions are indigenous to the soil and men have the habit of liberty, the press will continue to be the fourth estate, the vigilant guardian of the rights of the ordinary citizen." Churchill said that he did not re­ gard advertising a menace to the freedom of the press, but rather be­ lieved it allowed the press "to stand on its own feet, without relying on subsidies from government or politi­ cians.” In comparing the press to the radio from the consumers' point of view, he pointed out that people are inclined to concentrate to a greater degree on what they read. While listening to the radio, he said, it is possible to do other things. FRANK BOWEN, AGED 80, KALAMO, FOUND DEAD Frank R.

Funerals Of Wm. Couch And Louis Brock­ way Friday. No Inquest When Blake Boylan. 24, fell asleep at the wheel of his father’s car on M-37, as he and William Couch, for­ mer Nashville resident, and Louis Brockway, both employees of the Hastings Cut Rate Shoe store, were returning early New Years morning from the New Years eve dance at the Dixie Dcnce Pavilion on US-131, two miles south of Wayland, where they had gone after the closing of the shoe store, Tragedy shortly replaced Pleasure. The car continued in a straight line at a good pace, it is said, until a curve was reached in the descending of a small hill, when the car missed the first post of the guard rail, sped down the embankment and wrapped itself around an elm tree in front of what is known as the McElwain cemetery, now a part of Riverside cemetery on M-37, one-half mile the other side of Hastings. Boylan escaped with slight injur­ ies, though unconscious for a time. The other boys suffered skull frac­ tures. and died from their injuries. Local friends of the victims and the Couch family were shocked to learn of their deaths. Funeral services for the two boys were held at 2 p. m. Friday, that of Couch at the Baltimore church, that of Brockway from the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Brockway of Hastings. William Couch leaves his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Sam Couch, and two brothers. Donald and Everett Brock­ way is survived by his mother, Mrs. Louis Brockway, a brother, manager of the Hastings Cut Rate Shoe store, and three sisters.

Brief cere­ monies opened the second session of the 74 th Congress, which followed a four months’ recess, last Friday. There was considerable fireworks. Af­ ter swearing in one new Senator and four new Representatives and com­ memorating two dead Senators, the House arranged to meet jointly to hear President Roosevelt give his message on the "State of the Union." ■ Pertinent points in this “political** address were as follows. The United States and the rest of the Americas can play but one role: Through a well-ordered neutrality to do naught to encourage the contest, through adequate defense to save our­ selves from embroilment and attack, and through example and all legiti­ mate encouragement and assistance to persuade other nations to return to the ways of peace and good-will. Efforts to reduce armies have thus, far not only failed but have been met by vastly increased armaments on land and in the air. Even efforts to continue the existing limits on naval armaments into the years to come show little current success. After 34 months of work we con­ template a fairly rounded whole. \ye have returned the control of the fed­ eral government to the city of Wash­ ington. They seek —this minority in busi­ ness and finance—to control legiti­ mate and highly honored business as­ sociations; they engage in vast propagada to spread fear and discc-d among the people—they would “gang up” against the people's liberties. Let action be positive and not nega­ tive. ... Let them propose to this Congress the complete repeal of these Congress of the United States for an expression of opinion by yeas and nays. The carrying out of the laws of the land as enacted by the Congress renuircs protection until final adjudica­ tion by the highest tribunal of the land. The Congress has the right and can find the means to protect its own prerogatives. Based on existing laws it is my be­ lief that no new taxes, over and above the present taxes, are advisable or necessary.

The increase in mileage is due largely to the open­ ing of new roads during the past con­ struction season. During last winter with a snowfall somewhat greater than normal, snow removal costs were $756,823.33 for the entire state. This figure includes the cost of sanding Icy roads in the south­ ern part of the state as well as actual snow removal farther north. Commissioner Van Wagoner point­ ed out that the problem of winter maintenance was not confined to the snow belts erf the northern sections. Nearly 500 arrests were made by Conservation Officers during Novem­ ber, the month of the deer-hunting season in Michigan. The total—482 —is six under the figure of November, 1934. A large part of the total ar- chargeable to Eolations of the deer illegal fishing and nearly all of the re* mainder for illegal trapping or illegal hunting of small game. Heavy penalties in fines, costs and jail terms were imposed in a number of cases and where the circumstances warranted officers resorted to confis­ cation as further punishment in will­ ful and particularly serious offenses. Seven automobiles, the highest num­ ber confiscated in any one month during the past year, and 19 illegal deer were taken. Total fines came to $6,063 and total costs. $2,968. An aggregate of 1.868 days in jail was imposed in justice court. The number of fines suspended was 115. Six of­ fenders were given probation, five cas­ es dismissed, eight were "lost” and two certified to circuit court Most of the deer-hunting Violations were on charges of taking, possessing or transporting illegal venison, 59 in­ dividuals being arrested on those charges.

Telephone Gave Efficient Service During Mid-Western Dust Storms Center: An approaching dust storm In Kansas (Conard Studio). In circle: Brushing out dust which a storm had deposited between screen and window of a telephone building. Right: When It was necessary for a telephone lineman to work during a dust atorm, this protected himself. in some cases even vacuum cleaning waa adopted. • An unusual handicap to good telephone service was the effect ot static on the wires, especially on long telephone lines. The extremely dry dust and sand particles, in their passage through the air, accumulated a slight electric charge which was transmitted to certain of the open wire telephone lines as the dust storms passed. This resulted in oc­ casional noises on the line during conversation which made it difficult to hear well. Where this effect waa sufficiently severe to interrupt ser­ vice, it was remedied by grounding ■the circuits through suitable high impedances, which proved to be a satisfactory expedient. Operators Handled Moro Calls Despite all precautions, the air in some operating rooms during severe storms was sometimes so full of dust as to make breathing difficult, and operators had to be relieved fre­ quently, to clear their throats of dust and to break the strain ot talk­ ing under such conditions. As is the case in emergencies of all sorts, the public turned instinctively to the telephone. During the height of the necessary. In one office, during a storm period, local calls more than severe storm, the outside working forces were called in to help, and the entire switchboard and other creased by from 50 to 75 per cent equipment were cleaned and the Except wLere static from the dust floors mopped eevan times In one Throughout the area affected by the dust storms which caused so much damage and discomfort in the Middle West during the spring of 1935, the telephone service was able to function without eerlous interrup­ tion. That this vital means of com­ munication was available at prac­ tically all times to spread the news of approaching storms and to convey warnings and also news of personal safety, as well as all the usual dayto-day calls, was due principally to the excellent condition of the tele­ phone plant, to the preventive and maintenance measures taken, and to the co-operation of telephone men and women. A Battle Against Odds During dust storms, doors and windows in telephone central offices were not only kept closed but were caulked or sealed with tope. In dial offices, where special ventilating equipment Is maintained, the same air was filtered and circulated over and over, thus practically elimi­ nating dust from the air indoors.

Westfall, who directs this work in the Evangel­ ical church In Michigan, selected Nashville as a place of gathering for a group of surrounding churches, in­ cluding Woodland, Maple Grove, Clov­ erdale, Jackson's, two Evangelical churches, Turk Lake and Ionia. A few weeks before the meeting the young people of Nashville Evan­ gelical church were assigned the pro­ ject of preparing for and entertaining this delegation of their Christian friends. This work included corres­ pondence with the churches coming, providing a speaker for a part on the program, a special musical number, and furnishing the evening meal. Ef­ ficiently and smoothly this work was accomplished, to the delight of the older members of the congregation. As the hour approached for the op­ ening service, 2:30, Tuesday, Dec. 30, the young people from Nashville and their, guests assembled and renewed former acquaintances. The opening devotions were in charge of Maurice Purchis, who led in singingt directed prayer and expound­ ed Scripture. Two discussional groups, older and younger, werp led by Rev. John Hill of Battle Creek and Rev. Leroy Chamberlain of Leighton.

Back to the church in time for the 6 o’clock evening meal. And right here a good deal could be said about decorations and appetizing food. A program including a piano solq and two character readings and a short address, all by visiting young people, was enjoyed around the tables. Sixty­ eight people, mostly youth, were at this banqueL Young people again were prominent in the evening program. The open­ ing prayer and a violin solo were of­ fered by Jackson girls. A duet by Misses Parrott and Welch, entitled The Old Fashioned Meeting." was sung at the close of a young people s witnessing for Christ, in which ring­ ing testimonies to salvation were heard. Rev. Leroy Chamberlain brought the evening message to the theme. “Youth Building a New World," us­ ing the beatitudes of Matthew 5 as basic Scripture. He presented the thought that the love that crucified Jesus to the world and made Him be crucified by the world would be the power of construction in Youth's new world.

To mortal sense Science seems at first obscure, ab­ stract, and dark; but a bright prom­ ise crowns its brow. When under­ stood, it is Truth’s prism and praise." Church Of The Nazarene. Rev. T. G.

This included 310 members of na­ tional Farm Loan associations who got federal land bank loans at 4 per cent interest on farm mortgages that will run for 34 1-2 years; and 522; members of Production Credit asso­ ciations who got 5 per cent loans for production purposes, repairs, im­ provements, or general farm operat­ ing purposes. These short-term loans secured by chattel mortgages will generally run for one year with op­ portunity for renewal where the member's repayment record is good. The total volume of loans made to Michigan farmers in November was $1,182,452. It comprises 1954,000 through the Federal Land Bank of St. Paul (including 118-farmers who got commissioner’s loans); and $227,­ 552 through tre 15 Production Credit associations. Three other states are included in the 7th farm credit district, Wiscon­ sin, Minnesota, and North Dakota, and total loans for the four states were: Federal Land Bank, $6,773,400; Production Credit association, $1,­ 735,884; Bank for Co-operatives, $295,400, making an aggregate of $8,­ 804,684. No Michigan co-operatives borrowed through the Bank for Co­ operatives during the month. Included in the total volume of the St Paul Bank for Co-operatives was a loan to a national association w-hlch the St. Paul bank shares jointly with the Central Bank for Co-operatives In Washington, the St. Paul bank’s share of the national loan being $200,000. New Areas Named For Deer Live-trapping Conservation Dept. And Game Men Want To Know More About Mig­ ratory Habits. Two new areas have been select­ ed by state game authorities this year for deer live-trapping operations. One of these areas is the Luther-Baldwin state forest; the other the Escanaba । River tract. Live traps also will be । placed in the Cusino refuge unit on [ Lake Superior; Wilderness state park on the Straits of Mackinac, and for the first time since 1930 in the Craw- j ford refuge. Crawford county. A to­ tal of 23 live-traps will be placed in the units mentioned, five each in all but Wilderness state park, where three will be used. Live-trapping operations have been conducted by state game men each winter for the past half-decade in an effort to learn more of the migratory habits of wild deer. When the deer are trapped, numbered tags are plac­ ed in their ears and the animals re-' leased. Hunters who shoot tagged deer are asked to notify the Depart-j ment of Conservation, giving the tag , number and the location of the shoot­ ing. Game men believe that live-trapping activity will provide sufficient records by which the approximate normal range of white-tailed deer can be as­ certained; how far deer range from their usual winter yards; whether they return year after year to the same yards and other data essential in the proper management of the deer herd. Concrete. The state highway department has hard-surfaced nearly 1.200 miles of trunkline highways in Michigan the last three years. A compilation by State Highway Commissioner Murray D. Van Wagon- 727.97 miles of hard-surfaced high­ ways in Michigan today compared with 3,590.46 miles at the same time in 1932. The last three years have seen an increase of 762.9 miles in the concrete milcag on trunkline highways. In De­ cember, 1932, the total concrete mile­ age was 2,936.17 miles compared with the present mileage of 3,699.13. The increase tn hard-surfaced roads has been comparable with the trunk­ line additions in the last three years. In 1932 the total maintained mileage was 8,312.54 miles compared with 9,­ 458.21 at the present time. Although many miles of gravel . highways have been hard-surfaced in the last three years, the mileage of gravel roads has not been reduced proportionately. There are now 3,307 miles of gravel trunklines compared with 3,545 miles in 1932. Continued additions to the trunkline system ex­ plain wby the gravel mileage has been reduced only 238 miles in three years. Much of the hard-surfaced improve­ ment on the trunkline system has been made during the present admin­ istration, which went into office July 1, 1933. Most of the construction in the last three years has been carried out with federal funds. Three-fifths of all state highway revenues are now re­ turned directly to the counties. Other statutory and contractual obligations have reduced the balance in state highway revenues to less than $3,­ 000,000 a year.

Hoffman By Tbe NaahviUc Club Of The Towniw-nd ' Plan. ’ Your scathing criticism of not only the Townsend Plan, but all those who are Interested or active in putting the Plan into action, deserves a reply. You begin by condemning the or­ ganization for asking you to blindly follow the leadership of Townsend, which is a false conception on your part, for we, as club members, while we do respect and honor Dr. Town­ send for sincerity ot purpose, his abil­ ity as an economist and organizer, yet it is the Plan which he has evolved that we are supporting. We, as farmers, laborers, small bus­ iness and professional workers, know there is something economically wrong when in the midst of plenty, so long as a portion of our citizens are in want, especially those who by their labor produce the wealth which they are so much in need of. To correct the above condition we are support­ ing the Townsend Plan, and for the same reason we are asking your co­ operation. Secondly, you state in your Wash­ ington letter, “Your organization has made its boast that it would defeat me should I stand for re-election. That is your privilege and if you pre­ fer a glib, fluent gentleman who has no regard for his word and wish to be mis-Ied by his many rosy promises, that, too, is your privilege." Accord­ ing to the above you give us only two alternatives, either elect Clare Hoff­ man who admits he is honest, or some fleunt gentleman who has not regard for his word. Now, we do not be­ lieve that Mr. Hoffman has a comer on honesty in the 4th District, and do believe that there are others in the 4th District who are honest and in­ telligent, and do support the Town­ send Plan. Third, you say you are the repre­ sentative of all the people, not mere­ ly, the Townsendites. Well, we would like very much to have an answer to this question: What would you do if more than 51 per cent of the voters in this District became Townsendites ? Would you resign or would you represent the minority? This is a very pertinent question, but as we have now more than ten thousand members of the Townsend Clubs in the 4th District, and the membership growing every day, it might be necessary for you to answer one way or the other. Fourth, you say quit believing the , things which your common sense tellsI you are wrong. Now. Mr. Hoffman, do you infer by that, that all of us! thousands of members of the Town- ■ send Clubs are so senseless and dumb and unintelligent as to be supporting a plan that we know to be wrong? j You almost alone have been telling us that the plan is wrong. Thousands of us say. yes, it looks good. Let’s try it I am reminded of the story of the fond mother watching her son march­ ing with a company of soldiers. "Just look,” says she; "they are all out of step but John." Fifth, you say an adequate old age pension to those who deserve it. (Yes). Now, Mr. Hoffman', as a lawyer, do you want to continue to help make laws that can be interpret­ ed in as many ways as there are peo- , pie ? What is adequate ? Where, ' when, and to whom? Who will be the judge as to who deserves it, and if many of them did not deserve a pension according to some dictator. : then what would you do with them? Would they be compelled to starve, freeze, and go naked? We are op­ posed to the enactment of indifferent laws. Sixth, you say a gift of money to the few. meaning those over sixty:— ' all of the comforts and necessities of our lives have been made possible by others—homes, cities, roads, ma­ chines, railroads, light and beating systems, etc. Now, if our people ' over 60 years helped build and made these things possible, and just be- ; cause our system says they belong to someone else, isn’t it fair and just that they be allowed the use of them after they have passed the age when it is impossible for them to obtain employment in a world where the machines they have built does the work for them ? No, it is not a gift, only pay for past service rendered. Seventh, you also state that an ad­ dition of taxes, merely to spend, on the theory that spending makes pros­ perity. Now let us use a little of that common sense you admit we have. Without spending, not a baby would have milk, not a family would have bread or meat, not an automo­ bile or railroad train would be run. In fact, under our system, everything would be dormant Our common sense teaches us that just the oppo­ site, ot the increased spending of money would give us a greater mea­ sure ot prosperity. Of course we are thinking ot the great mass of people when we arrive at these conclusions, to the coupon clipper on tax exempt bonds or the high salaried govern- ment official. Oh well, that might be different. So we are fairly well con­ vinced, Mr. Hoffman, that it is you who is out of step. If .as you say, the Townsend Plan is wrong and won’t work, please tell us what has been working - for' the last six years. -—' • x. Yours truly. The Nashville Townsend Club. U. P.

Mrs. Clara Hannemann of Nash­ ville and Mrs. Anna Wolfe of Hastiings narrowly escaped serious injury early Friday afternoon when the car, driven by Mrs. Hannemann, skidded on the ice and overturned completely on M-79, one-half mile south of Thomapple lake. They were on their way to Hastings when the accident happened. Mrs. Hannemann finally was able to get up inside the car and open a window and wave her hand to attract attention, when three cars came along and gave assistance in getting them out of the car. Mrs. Wolfe was thrown with force from the front seat to the rear of the car, bruising her right shoulder and arm, and suffering painful injuries. Mrs. Hannemann was also bruised, and is able to be up and around and wait on herself. Attys. Kim Sigler of Hastings and Horace Powers of Nash­ ville proved the Good Samaritans. They were assisted to the home of a friend, Mrs. Minnie Silsbee of Hast­ ings, where a local physician was called to examine the injuries of Mrs. Wolfe. They are thankful they are alive to tellthe tale, but don’t want another experience like it right away. Mr. Hurd came after the car with his wrecker. Mr. Webber of Hastings kindly assisted the ladies back to Nashville in safety. No place like home! ‘Sprise” Wedding In Town Friday •Dotty Dimple” And “E. M. Nervine” Were "Spliced" At C. C. Class When Mrs. Susie Kraft invited the Cheerful Charity class of the Evan­ gelical Sunday school for its January meeting, she was unaware that the "real entertainment” of the after­ noon would be of a hymenial nature, in fact she didn’t know that there was a “Dotty Dimple" or a “E. M. Nervine," let alone that they would be married “for better or for worse” at her home Friday afternoon. Neidls Brumm, Jean Brown, Virginia Cole Nervine." It was hatched up later, and was an outgrowth of the request that each represent in some way her birth month. “Dotty Dimple** (Mrs. Horace Babcock) was born in June, the month of roues and weddings, and "E. M. Nervine" (Etta Baker) In January, when "calendars and dates and almanacs" are circulating, so they fell to plotting as the date of C. C. meeting drew near. And was the company surprised when to the strains of the wedding march played by Miss Amy Playwell (Amy Hart­ well) the bridal couple descended the stairs, the bride in a rose figured gown with a tiara and veil, gown length, a lace curtain when on daily duty, wearing many and sundry bracelets, and "appetizing" beads,” formed by stringing jelly beans; and the groom In the "other suit" of her brother, correct in attire, and much trimmed with almanacs, calendar leaves and dates, to be joined, some way or other by the "Rev. L C. U. Do Much" (Mrs. Orville Flook), who used the “ring" ceremony. Gifts to "Mr. and Mrs. Nervine” (who had their pictures taken Sunday in their wed­ ding attire) were a bar of soap and bath salts, which gave them a good start. To return to the more serious busi­ ness of the class event, the new president, Mrs. Dause. presided at the business meeting, at which time the flower committees were named for the sick: Mabie Marshall, Lena Mix. Eva Brumm. Laura Deller and Mary Flook; for funerals: May Northrup and Susie Kraft. A membership contest was arrang­ ed for a Red and White contest with Mrs. Otto Schulze as chairman of the Red side and Mrs. Brumm of the White side, the losers to banquet the winners.

Closed Its Year Monday WKh Soma The Barry county Cow Testing as­ sociation closed its year with some very good monthly production aver­ ages, according to a report issued by Harold J. Foster, county Agricultural Agent Jesse Osgood &. Sen of Cloverdale are owners of the high producing herd for December with an average of 1040 lbs. of milk and 37.4 lbs. fat for their 15 registered Holsteins. The grade Holstein herd of Mrs. Lottie Cridler of Middleville falls second with 900 lbs. milk and 31.5 lbs. fat for the 19 cows in the herd. Marshall Pierce and Lloyd Gaskill of Dowling come third and fourth with her averages of 29.5 and 29.4 lbs. fat respectively for their Holstein herds. In the individual cow standing, we find that Jesse Osgood & Son of Clo­ verdale head the Mature Cow list with a cow producing 1680 lbs. milk and 65.5 lbs. fat Mrs. Lottie Cridler of Middleville and Marshall Pierce of Dowling stood second and third in the Mature Cow class. These figures are interesting in that the association average for December was 587 lbs. milk and 23.5 lbs. fat per cow and likely the county average not more than half this figure. Lloyd Gaskill of Dowling led the 4­ year class with a cow producing 1742 lbs. milk and 62.7 lbs. fat Jesse Osgood & Son and Highland Dairy of. Hastings came second and third with very good productions. Highland Dairy of Hastings led the 3-year-old class with 1392 lbs. milk and 59.9 lbs. fat, followed by Cridler and Osgood. Marshall Pierce, Lloyd Gaskill and Jesse Osgood & Son had high 2-year-olds in the order men­ tioned. John Foster, who has acted as tester throughout the past year, has done a very satisfacory job with the county breeders as is evidenced by the support he has bad in the work. Last January only two breeders wanted to sign up for a year's work. He finished the year with 16 herds on test, all but one of which has signed for the 1936 year's work. , This has been as much work as Mr. Foster could take, due to the fact he is running an Allegan association al­ so. This month these members are being shifted to another association over there to allow the taking of three new Barry county breeders, namely: Glen Ingram, George Clouse and Roy Preston, all of Hastings. These breeders come into the association with purebred Jersey and Guernsey herds. This makes the association full again until further transfers can be made in Allegan county. County Agent Foster is in favor of building a 100 per cent Barry county association as fast as possible and will do all in his power to get Barry county breeders in if they will notify him of their desires .

The state for years has had a driv­ ers’ license law but just what does it mean to the rhotoring public and to the people of the state? It, in its present setup, is merely a method of procuring more income and offers no protection. Driver’s licenses should be issued only after the applicant has shown proof that his sight Is good, that his hearing is good and that he is physically and mentally able to drive an automobile in a safe and prudent manner. This one thing alone will cut down the number of traffic accidents and their resulting deaths.—Allegan Newa Barry and inunni Eaton Co.

USED 980 VACUUM TUBES IN ROUND-WORLD CALL Enormous Amplification Needed for Telephone Conversation Which Circled the Globe When President Walter S. Gifford of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company and T. G. Miller, head of that company's long lines department, made history a few months ago by talking around the world to each other by telephone, the vacuum tube, that modern Aladdin’s lamp, played an important part in the conversation. How important, a few figures will make clear. The two men were in adjoining offices, scarcely 50 feet apart, as Mr. Gifford’s voice traveled west and reached Mr. Miller’s ear from the east, while the 4atter's words jour­ neyed in the opposite direction and arrived from the west. In each round-the-world circuit, 490 vacuum tubes were employed, a total of 980 for the two-way conversation. Many of the vacuum tubes were in telephone repeaters along the wire lines stretching between New York and San Francisco. Still others were in radio telephone transmitters and receivers which sent the electric waves across vast distances of ocean and received the enfeebled radia­ tions after their long sea voyages. About 85 per cent of the distance around the world was covered by the radio telephone links, the remaining 15 per cent being in telephone wires. Some of the vacuum tubes were no bigger than those used in a home radio receiver, others were several times larger, and yet others were giant water-cooled transmitting tubes. The strength or power of electric —’ves, whether traveling by wire 'dlo, diminishes with distance. Vacuum tubes In telephone repeat­ ers, in radio transmitters, in radio recovers, build up and amplify the waning electric waves. On the roundthe-world telephone call there were, of course, many deflations and in­ flations, many decreases and in­ creases, of the electric wave power. If one were to add together all the Inflations of the electric waves which the vacuum tubes supplied, the total would reach the amazing figure of one million multiplied by itself 33 times. The technician expresses this as a gain of 2,000 decibels. In everyday terms, this means that the various amplifications of the power along the route—between which, of course, decreases or deflations of power oc­ curred—amounted to the staggering total of one million times one mil­ lion times one million and so on for ,33 multiplications. It a person’s voice could be made to travel around the world by sound waves—the wave* which bring the voice to the ear through the air in ordinary face-to-face conversation —it would take quite a while for the voice to make the circuit around the globe: more than 30 hours, in fact For sound waves travel through the air at a speed of only 770 miles an hour. Electric waves, on the other hand, travel thousands of miles a second. Radio waves move with the speed of light 186,000 miles a second, while electric waves on wires travel some­ what more slowly. It took, therefore, only about one quarter of a "second for Mr. Gifford's voice to journey around the world to Mr. Miller’s ear, and vice versa. To these two men. carrying on a conversation which encircled the globe, this quarter of a second was noticeable only In dlrect comparison with a telephone call over a more usual distance. THE TELEPHONE, SERVANT TO HUMANITY—Brooksville, Fla, Sun Too often, we take our servants for granted, perhaps, mechanical a/ well as human. For example, the telephone, unobtrusive little instrument, but one that saves homes, saves lives at times, eaves property and saves thousands of steps. Fire breaks out; we rush to the 'phone, calling the fire department which arrives in the nick of time to save the home.w A loved one awakes in the middle of the night, gasping for breath, strangling from the dread enemy croup, that can steal on you so suddenly. A quick ring brings the doctor and another life is saved. Transactions involving millions are mads over the telephone, saving millions of dollars in valu­ able time. Even international settlements between nations have come to the point where the leading actors confer over the telephone zeroes oceans and deserts. The question is not can we afford a telephone, but how can we afford to be without K. . .. THROUGH TOMORROW TO TODAY—Omaha, Nebr, Bee-News Sitting 50 feet apart in a New York office the other day, two men talked to each other by telephone. There Is nothing extraordinary about that, of course. Their voices reached each other in a quarter of a second. That also la not remarkable. g However, the voices went out through tomorrow and back into today! That phenomenon was possible because when it is noon in New York, according to the international system of marking time, it is the next day in the Philippines and China and Australia. Flying thus into the following day, the invisible sound passed back into the original day somewhere in the Pacific on its way eastward. , When Walter S. Gifford and T. G. Miller talked to each other In the first two-way round-the-world conversation on record, their voices trav­ eled 23,000 miles In a quarter of a second. Speaking of the test later, Mr. Gifford said: "This is another step in the conquest of time and space by man, and proves that there are no earthly limitations to human speech.” Why stop with human speech, however? Man has only began his con­ quest of time an g^pace. The world is on the threshold of things unheard of, undreamed ot. 4 �Mr. and Mrs. Frank Reynard andi the inland daughter visited Mr. and Mrs. OtUe Lykins Sunday. groups during 3936.

San Francisco’s Chinese Telephone Office Witnesses Unusual Ceremony (ByHon. Clare E. Hoffman.) The Townsend Plan And The Inde­ pendent Merchant. Reiterating the statement that practically everyone is in favor of . adequate relief, not only "for the aged, but for the unfortunate and helpless, that the real friends of such aid in­ sist upon a practical plan, let me call attention to one of the Inevitable re­ sults of the Townsend Plan. Many small business men and mer­ chants have signed the petitions pre­ sented to them to vote for a bill au­ thorizing a transaction tax of 2 per cent to raise a pension of $200.00 per month. (The Townsend Weekly of| December 30 says: "There has never J been, nor will be, any compromise on , the $200 per month provision in the ! Townsend demands. All statements! to the contrary are false.” Permit me to call the attention of! the small merchant and business man ; to the effect of. this transaction tax ‘ upon him in his competition with J mail order houses, chain stores, and I like enterprises. I The transaction tax means 2c ev- , ery time a dollar is turned over or spent This means that the independ-1 ent merchant must pay as a part of the cost of his merchandise a 2c addi- 1 tion to every dollar of cost from the time his product leaves the earth un­ til it reaches his hands. Take clothing as an illustration. If it be cotton, when the farmer pays the tax on his land its a financial transaction. It means 2c on every ■ dollar. If he has a hired man, again there is 2c. The farmer may or may not add this to the price of the cot­ ton. In any event, when the cotton is sold to the ginner there is 2c. Jobber, to mill-manufacturer, 2c. Manufac­ turer to wholesaler of cloth, 2c. Whole j saler to retailer. 2c. Retailer to job- ' him — out ber of clothing — We’ll cut ...... -1 and assume retailer sells direct to; merchant. 2c. Merchant to customer,1 2c. Or 14c on every dollar's worth' of clothing. Perhaps the tax is more than this. It applies to the thread, j the buttons, everything that goes into : the completed product This tax of at least 14c on every dollar the small | merchant must pay. The merchant . with canned goods, sugar, all manu- | factured products, has the tax and must pass it along to the consumer, j But what about Sears Roebuck? What about the chain stores? How long would it be before all these con- I cems would grow or produce much of their own raw materials ? Have their. own transportation systems? (Many) of them now do—Note A. & P. trucks j on the highways.) Manufacture their i own products ? Cut out all transac-| tions in between the grower and the j ultimate consumer. "Fine," you say. What becomes of all the merchants along your streets, of all the smaller factories? Do you see the advantage it would give to great corporations, to the chain stores? They, having but few turn­ overs from the time the raw mater­ ials left the ground or mine until placed on their shelves for sale, would have a tax of but 4c or 6c on the dol­ lar, while the independent merchant, purchasing in the usual way, would have a tax of 10c and up, depending upon the number of times the raw material Was handled before it be­ came the finished product. The cost he necessarily would be forced to add to the cost of the goods on his shelves. Who would buy of him when they could purchase at so much less of the chain store, of the large corporation, which manufactured and handled its own products and, hence, did not have this burden? Is it not true that the 2 per cent transaction tax would ruin practically every small busines man, that the in­ dependent merchant would find it im­ possible to compete with the mail or­ der and the chain stores with this added advantage, for the reason that the independent merchant buys thru a system that requires many transac­ tions, with the result that there would be multiple transactions, while the chain store, the manufacturer, retail­ er, has a simplified system of produc­ tion, manufacture, distribution and Think it over. This is just one of the results that Townsend organizers Maple Grove and speakers have not yet mentioned. SHORES DISTRICT.

Successful flower photography has been made quite easy with the in­ troduction of super sensitive pan­ chromatic film.

Why not keep a record of their growth and beauty with snapshots? You can take good pictures of flow­ ers with any camera in the house or outdoors but today let’s discuss pic­ tures of flowers in the house. Proper lighting is the foundation for good flower photography. It should be remembered that shadows are necessary to properly reproduce form tn any graphic illustration. In outdoor photography natural light­ ing is depended upon so it is neces­ sary to wait until the sunlight comes from the right direction tc get the proper lighting for your subject In this respect indoor picture taking has its advantages. You make and place your own lighting. As a general rule, bright direct overhead light is not desirable so The diagram above shows how the picture to the right was taken. It is best not te i»lace lights directly in front of the ■ abject for in doing so you will generally fan to get depth In the pio sire. You will notice that the tray, u *ed effectively as a background, is lilted against the wall and not fla against it By till­ ing the tray the iladow to the right is made posslbl and adds greatly to the depth as attractiveness of the picture. As shown In the diagram, you will need two pir tofiood lamps placed in an ordlnaif floor lamp with the shade tilted slightly upward. If you cannot tilt the shade remove it en­ tirely and hold a white cardboard, sheet or even a bright dishpan be­ hind the lamps to serve as a reflec­ tor. You may want to do your own experimenting in the placing of the photoflood lamps to get shadows that please you most After locating the subject in the finder set the diaphragm at f.6 J and the shutter speed at 1/2S of a second and take your picture.

The issue was Initiated last we'k (Jan. 7) when a delegation represent ing the 15 counties’ of the Upper Pen-1 insula and 34 counties in the northern part of the lower peninsula made an unsuccessful appeal for an emergency appropriation of $500,000 to remove snow off non-tmnkline highways. Of this amount. <250.000 was asked by the Upper Peninsula. In laying its appeal before the high­ way committee of the state adminis­ trative board, the delegation suggest­ ed that a portion of the sales tax lev­ ied on gasoline sales be used to solve the snow-removal problem. The dele­ gation claimed that the allocations of northern counties from the $4,000,000 McNitt Law fund is insufficient to meet additional maintenance burdens and snow removal costs involved in the absorption of township roads by the counties. The delegation specifi­ cally opposed any further drain on state highway revenues to meet the issue. The state highway department is removing snow from 8,807 miles of trunkline highway this winter. This is 93 per cent of the entire trunkline mileage. The snow removal program on trunkline highways cost <756,823 during the winter of 1934-35. includ­ ing <497,610 in the lower peninsula.

Florida, has found a Packard isn’t much different from a Ford or Pierce-Arrow when it comes to travelling on ice, judging by the card he has written John Wol­ cott, secretary of the Lime Kiln club. Writing from Franklin, Ky., Jan. 11, he said they drove about- 60 miles on ice the previous day and it was slippery some distance that morning, but he didn't report any "turnovers" in the business of travelling. They had made over 300 miles that day through country where plowing was under way. He said for Fred Potter to get up his nerve and come on down, but did­ n't say anything about bringing his sled along. They were 40 miles from Nashville, Tennessee, when he wrote. The Lime Kiln club is planning on running down to Orlando some even­ ing for a potluck supper and a gabfest with Mr. Tuttle. My word! ’ Unusual Entertainer Visited Nashville Lamardo Acker, international Bari­ tone, Reader And Radio Artist, Here Wednesday Night. Lamardo Acker, international bari­ tone, elocutionist and radio artist, who has performed throughout the nation over NBC as well as individ­ ual radio stations, appeared in an un­ usual concert at the Nashville M. E. church Wednesday evening. His unique performance is said to be one of America's most beautiful programs. This presentation brought African chants and prayers in native dialects; deep spirituals from the South, classics, and dramatic readings portraying authentic Negro life. This program presented and inter­ preted the contribution of the Negro people to the music of America. The outstanding feature of the concert was a lecture in th form of an oration, en­ titled "Spotlights on Ethiopian Civi­ lization." This discourse unfolded in­ side information concerning the Eth­ iopian government. The writer and artist was en route to Canada and from there to Africa.

Their first number was a vocal duet, "I Don’t Want to Play in Your Yard," in cos­ tume, by Betty Lu, 6 and Marguerite, 5. Following the due, the trio, in­ cluding Barbara, the baby of three played and sarg "Little Rocking Horse" and "Daisy Bell." Betty Lu played the violin. Mar­ guerite the horn, and the baby a drum. The children show real talent, showing a true ear for tone and rhy­ thm. As an encore, the girls sang and then played "That’s What the Daisy Said." They were accompanied on the piano by their mother.

O’Hara, audi­ tor general, the estimated revenues for the fiscal year of the state ending on June 30. 1936, are (123,000,000. Ulis sum is made up of many items which may be generally grouped as follows- The salts tax is expected to bring in (44.000,000, the corporation tax should yield about (7,000,000, the delinquent tax from former property tax levies will probably be about (3.­ 500,000, and the gas and weight tax should come to nearly (39,000,000. The specific taxes on railroads, tele­ phone companies, etc., will bring in about (14,000,000, all of which goes directly to the primary school fund. A group of licenses and other miscel­ laneous items will amount to about (5,500,000, the liquor control commis­ sion should net about (8.000,000 and the reimbursements from the support of prisoners, patients, etc., will come to (2,000,000. These items will be subject to some variation but in the main they are correct or nearly so. Now many people are wondering how this large sum of money will be spent They visualize It as being spent at Lansing for the departments and various boards and commissions. However, Mr. O'Hara point out that the direct expenditure for these is on­ ly about (3,000,000. This includes the salaries, expenses, printing and other activities of the state official family and its employees. Education gets (45,242,000. This in­ cludes the primary school fund, the special aid (the two amounting to (37,000,000), the teachers’ colleges, the university, the state colleger voca­ tional education, special schools and some minor forms of state aid to edu­ cation. The various welfare activities cost (14,585,000. the care of the insane comes to (5.250.000 while the prisons add another (2,800,000. The sinking fund, interest and principal, amount to (6,500,000. The Highway Department returns to the counties from the weight and gas tax $27,000,000, leaving for con­ struction and maintenance (12,000,­ 000. This sum, of course, does not in­ clude any of the WPA or other alpha­ betical projects. Departments of the state, including boards, commissions and departments, will spend approximately (3.000,000. It will be seen from this analysis that most of the money goes back to the local communities, and those who are suggesting that the sales tax should be returned to the counties, cities, and townships will find that they arc now getting all of it and a good deal besides. If they are to re­ ceive this money’ directly, they should be expected to meet the bills which are Involved. In other words. If this money is to be apportiond directly to the various municipal organizations, it would be only fair that they take over all the educational, welfare, and institutional expenses in full.

Michigan Foresters Frown On Mulb :r Unsuited For General Plant Profit, According To P. Herbert. A Great Improvement. For a great many years Michigan has been in'the "red” on December 31. The climax of misfortune was reached on December 31, 1933, when the general fund on that date faced a defiicit of (13,638.555.87. On De­ cember 31, 1935, the general fund of the state showed a balance of (5,­ 086,707.47. The change has come about through the Imposition of a sales tax which the people paid, as well as the enforcement of the most rigid economy on the part of the state administration. What Parente Wish. Doctor Kenneth L. Heaton repre­ sented the Department of Public In­ struction in its radio hour last Thurs­ day. This hour was used over WKAR. His talk was a summarization of the things the parents of Michigan wish the schools to give their children. His study indicated that they wished: firs, a well-rounded knowledge of life; second, preparation for earning a liv­ ing; third, knowing how to get along with other people; and fourth, prepa- I ration for parenthood. These are the 1 problems which the parents of Mich-' igan wish to have the schools aid in' solving.

A Mark of Merit ♦ HESS ♦ A FARMER BOY 0 �Governor Fitsgerald went on to point out that it wu the policy of the state to pay its bills promptly and to "Wsgoner, State Highway CommissMoer, which amounts to $7,670,500, has been approved by the AdmlnistraShre Board. This program is for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1936. Half of the amount is in state money, and half is met by federal funds. A few of the high lights of this program involve three widening pro­ jects on US-16. When completed, these will result in a minimum three lane highway betwean Lansing and Detroit. Seventeen miles of concrete construction on US-27 will complete the h“rd-surfacing of this main ar­ tery from the state line to the Straits of Mackinac. Seventeen miles of paving on US-12 will resuit In a thir­ ty-one foot pavement from Jackson to Ann Arbor, except for a short gap near Chelsea. The present pavement on US-25 will be extended as far north at Port Sanilac. US-23 will be widened so that a thirty-one foot pavement will extend from Bay City to Lynwood. Of particular Interest to the resort business is the completion of a hard­ surfaced read between Cadillac and Manistee by way of M-55 and twenty miles of twenty foot concrete on the diagonal road from Clare to Frank­ fort by way of M-115. Upper Michigan will benefit by ■about thirty-three miles of construc­ tion on M-41, the highway between Rapid City and Copper Harbor. This is the principal north and south high­ way in northern Michigan. There will also be about twenty-seven miles of paving on US-2, the chief east and west artery in upper Michigan. .Wayne county will benefit through both county and city construction. In the city will be spent $1,300,000 to­ ward the construction in the widening of the bottle neck between Vernor Highway and Adams on Woodward Avenue. Of course, this expenditure is dependent on the securing of funds for the securing of property along the right of way to provide for the widening operations. The program calls for a total of 201 miles of concrete pavement and con­ crete pavement widening and thirtythree miles of bituminous concrete pavement as well as eight bridges. These changes will add greatly to the ease with which the state will handle the tourist as well as the busi­ ness traffic. Funds Are Earmarked. Last week a group of gentlemen representing the city of Detroit called on the Governor, requesting at least $2,000,000 of the better than $5,000,­ 000 which was in the state's general fund on January 1. They wished to use it for welfare purposes. The Gov­ ernor very carefully explained the sit­ uation. There was at that date a sur­ plus for the first time in many years, but on the 15th of February $5,000,­ 000 must be sent to the schools, and at that time the general fund will again be thoroughly depleted. In dis­ cussing the matter, one of the gentle­ men said, “For the first time in my recollection we know how we stand with the state and how the state stands with us. We are paid what Is coming to us promptly and it is most gratifying.” . Legal Notices. Mortgage Sale. Default having been made in the conditions of a mortgage executed by B. F. Burdick to Peter Bailie, dated the 28th day of March. 1929, and re­ corded in the office of the Register of Deeds in and for the county of Barry and State of Michigan on the 9th day of April, 1929, in Liber 93 of Mortgeges on page 308, there is due at the date of this notice, the sum of $2215.40 for principal and interest and the further sum of $30, attorney fee provided for in said mortgage, mak­ ing the total amount due at the date of this notice $2235.40. No proceedings at law having been taken to collect the sums due on said mortgage, or any part thereof, notice is hereby given that I shall foreclose said mortgage by a sale of the premisea, or so much thereof as may be necessary, to pay the amounts due, with expense of foreclosure, attorney fee, revenue stamps and recording, at the North front door of the Court House in the City of Hastings, Mich­ igan (that being the building in which the Circuit Court for the County of Barry is held) on the third day of Ap­ ril, 1936, at ten o’clock in the fore­ $1,000,000 was saved during the first six months of the fiscal year begin­ ning July 1. 1935. Thia was accom­ plished by careful planning, and in addition there was a considerable in­ crease in revenues due to better busi­ ness conditions. These two factors have resulted in wiping out the de­ ficit While probably the state will not find a big balance in the treasury on June 30 next there will be a balance. The present method of financing the state means a steady monthly income, and this income has made it possible to operate the state’s business on a monthly budget, and Governor Fitz­ gerald has determined that Michigan will live within its budget Marketing The Answer. State Commissioner of Agriculture James F. Thomson points out that the real answer to the farmer’s problems is to be found in the proper market­ ing rather than in attempts to arti­ ficially control the output of farms. Eggs, potatoes, and butter are now being very carefully graded and are being made available to the consum­ ing public under a bonded farm pro­ duce plan set up the State Depart­ ment of Agriculture. A number of other farm products are also includ­ ed, among them apples, honey, maple syrup, and nursery stock. It is plan­ ned to include beans Ln the near fu­ ture. It- is pointed out that under the operation of the limiting of farm pro­ duce under the AAA our Imports had increased enormously during the last twelve months. For example, com, which we formerly exported, is now being imported from the Argentines and sold in competition with home com. The percentage of Increase of 1935 imports of com over those of 1934 is over 1,473 per cent, while dried milk and butter imports increas­ ed over 3,160 per cent Feeds in­ creased 126.2 per cent, eggs 132.3 per cent oats 141 per cent, and wheat *36.4 per cent. These figures tell the jftory of our vanishing markets. Bra-, zll is rapidly securing control of the world’s cotton supply, and it will be very difficult for the farmer of the United States to regain their place as exporters of these other vital pro­ ducts. It is true that arbitrary re­ striction of acreagd planted was not solely responsible for this condition. The drought did its part, but the two together produced a truly calamitous situation. By selling only a premium article, Mr. Thomson believes that Michigan farmers will be able to lift themselves out of the predicament into which so many have fallen. A Knotty Problem. Orville E. Atwood, Secretary of State, has before him for determina­ tion a question of the registration as voters of the members of CCC camps. In other words, shall members of camps be allowed to vote in the pre­ cinct where the camp is situated, or shall they be compelled to cast their votes in that locality in which they ordinarily reside. The question came from Clare county, but it Is acute in many parts of the state. The consti­ tution provides that members of training camps, etc., shall be permit­ ted to vote by absent voter's ballot, and he believes that this provision would hold in this case. However, he may ask the Attorney General to give a decision in the matter. Restricting Candidates To One Party. Contrary to a somewhat general opinion, there seems to be no provi­ sion in the election laws which would prevent candidates qualified in the primary for one party from becoming candidates on the ballot of another. Secretary of State Orville E. At­ wood would change this by providing that in the event petitions are filed in behalf of any person for more than one party ticket, the certifying offic­ er should cause the withdrawal of the candidate from all but one such tic­ ket He further suggests that any person who has been a candidate for nomination on any one ticket would be excluded from running as a candi­ date of any other political party in the ensuing election. Who Should Get The Money­ Attorney General David H. Crowley is planning an early appeal from the decision of the lower court in the matter of the Nick Krench case. The lower court held that the statute which permits the state to reserve all mineral rights when disposing of tax homestead lands to be unconstitution­ mortgage as follows: The North al. This act, which was passed in Three-fourths (3-4) of the East Half 1909, has netted the state a large (1-2) of the Southwest Quarter (1-4) sum of money, and with the constant ot Section Twenty-nine (29), Town One (1) North Range Nine (9) West it is likely to produce much more.

It might be that it would require special legislation to bring about this division of funds. Discuss Safety Education. In reply to a questionnaire sent out by Eugene B. Elliott, Superintendent of Public Instruction, about two hun­ dred superintendents of grade schools and forty-seven commissioners re­ sponded with their ideas. An imalysis of these returns seems to indicate that while about three-fourths of the schools are giving some kind of such instruction, it is somewhat haphazard and is handicapped by the lack of adequate material. The great major­ ity of both superintendents and com­ missioners favor the incorporation of an outline and adequate material In the course of study. All this means one more burden added to those plac­ ed upon the shoulders of the very busy Superintendent of Public In­ struction. Those reporting would make the motif of the course the in­ culcation of a consciousness of the need of general safety covering the entire field of personal and community activities. Difference Of Opinion. Last week the Michigan Public Utilities Commission listened to fur­ ther arguments in the matter of na­ tural gas for Grand Rapids and en­ virons. The Grand Rapids Gas Light company brought in as experts Messrs. Ball of Denver and Crider of Muskegon. These gentlemen estimat­ ed the total of available gas, includ­ ing proved reserves, partially develop­ ed fields, and probable fields, at ap­ proximately 31,755,550,000 cubic feet. The gas company argued that the best results could be obtained by using a mixed gas consisting of half natural and half artificial products. This gas, they asserted, would be cheaper, as it would be much hotter than the present artificial gas. Rep­ resentatives of the city of Grand Rap­ ids produced an engineer from the east who did not present completed maps, but who declared that from his study he was'positive that there were available over 90,000,000 cubic feet of reserves. So the city argued that it would be both possible and better to { use the undiluted natural gas. The [ city officials requested adjournment for two weeks for further study of the matter. This was granted, and it is hoped that by that time the case will be complete, and the commission will be enabled to make its decision promptly. Michigan Farmers Adopt Accounting In Their Business Increased Demand For Books Is Re­ sult Of Request For Historical Records. Orders for new farm account books are pouring into the offices of county agents throughout the state, as more and more Michigan farmers are keep­ ing adequate records of their farm business. A very good farm account book adaptable to any type of farm , and to any form of rental agreement ■ can- be procured either from the | County Agents or from the Farm I Management Department M. 8. C., | according to Herbert A. Berg. Farm | Management Extension specialist at Michigan State college. Much of the increased demand for account books is the result of the ad­ justment programs of the AAA, Mr. Berg reports. F-rmeni with histori­ cal records have found that they can determine their base quickly and ac­ curately. A record also helps to show proof of compliance by those holding government crop control contracts. Some farm operators go no further .with their records than to make an annual inventory in order to prepare a financial credit statement, now de­ manded by almost all sources of credit The account book available permits recording a complete account of all financial transactions relative to the farm business, and enables one to determine his operating profit or An extension project in Farm Ac­ counting is being offered in 65 Mich­ igan counties for 1936. Cooperating farmers are assisted in keeping a record which shows the way to in­ creased earnings. This project was started in 1929 and several hundred farmers have kept continuous records throughout the depression period. | Many of these farmers have made ad- i justmenta in their farm practices! which have resulted in a more favor- ' able farm income. Farmers who ; would like to have assistance with ‘ their bookkeeping are invited to see their County Agricultural Agent j - -Reports read at the annual bank elections revealed that deposits in two Battle Creek banks were $2,000,­ 000 higher than a year ago.

Opossums Very Plen­ tiful Thu Season Hundreds Are Being Taken By South Michigan Trappers, It Is Stated. The continued abundance of opossums In the vicinity of Dowagiac is indicated by the reports of trappers. Richard Ibbotson, a farmer living near there, has taken more than 100 opos­ sums so far this season. It is naid. In one night Ibbotson made a catch of 13 opossums and other trappers are reporting similar good catches. Opossum are most plentiful in the southwestern part of the state, but their range extends as far north as the latitude of Muskegon and Saginaw. According to state game au­ thorities at Lansing, a preliminary study of the food habits of this noc­ turnal wanderer revealed that the animal is not so harmful as is gener­ ally believed. Although opossums are supposed to 1 prey heavily upon pheasants and quail, both of these species were abun­ dant in opossum territory this fall, a fact which further tends to bear out the findings of the state game men. : The open trapping season on opos­ sums, which are on the protected list, । closes January 31. —Albert Becker, Hastings high school dramatic coach, is rehearsing. a double cast for the junior play : “One Mad Night,’’ to be given in Cen-( tral auditorium Feb. 7.

The Enduring Ingredient Even the stoutest cedar pole must at length succumb to weather and wear. New methods surpass — and replace—the old. Equip­ ment disappears as progress renders it obsolete. There is, however, one factor in your telephone service that never alters; one important ingredient that survives all the effects of the passing years — and this is the factor of policy. The policy of this Company is to supply Michigan with the best and most economical telephone service that human effort and sincerity can provide. To accom­ plish this purpose, there has been a long series of changes—un­ ending changes — that grew out of American inventive ge­ nius as applied to the art of telephonic communication. A noteworthy example of this is seen in the evolution of the ■ cable. Year by vear a greater number of wires — each an ave­ nue of speech — has been suc­ cessfully packed into a smaller circumference. This, with many other improvements, has steadily widened the use of cable. Util­ ized at first only to link subscrib­ ers’ telephones with central offices, storm-resistant cable is now used in toll circuits connect­ ing cities, and in a large percent­ age of all present-day circuits. Ulis progressive change was not haphazard. It grew out of a policy which itself does not change. That is^why telephone service in the State of Michigan is . better today than it was yes­ terday. And that is why it will improve for tomorrow. L3 MICHIGAN BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY �THK NA1HV1LLI NKW1 THURSDAY, JAN. M, 1966 NAVY NEWS AND FACTS. Just About Everything.

Check Condition _---- 1 Mure Than 28,000 Turned In Creel­ Census Cards For The Past ( Thirty thousand inland fishermen are helping Michigan Conservation authorities to obtain a check on gen- . eral fishing conditions for 1935. Denoting bad luck as well as good luck in their reports, approximately 28,000 persons have turned in creel­ census cards for the past year. These cards are now in the hands of Insti- . tute for Fisheries Research at Ann Arbor where they will be examined ( and tabulated to furnish the only* available cross-section of fishing con- ' dltions and trends for the year. The number of creel-census cards , received this year to date is approxi- [ mately twice that sent out for 1934 I and is a new high record. Fishermen are becoming more interested in the scientific and technical aspects of fish management and it Is being reflected in better cooperation, Conservation autnorities believe. A compilation made by the Insti­ tute for Fisheries Research in 1933 and 1934, based on 50,000 creel-cen­ sus cards for the years 1927 to 1932, inclusive, showed that the individuals reporting caught 287,505 legal-size fish for 274,336 hours’ fishing. Creel census compilations are use­ ful in indicating fishing trends as well as conditions and reveal the ratio of the various species of fish to the to­ tal catch reported. 17-Year Locusts Due This Year Michigan Is One Of Seventeen States To Be In The Infested According to W. p.

Mln S«I*h Koeber died of heart ailment due to old age, at ie Alton hospital, January 30, 1936. Funeral services were held in the Gerbel Fun­ eral Home in Edgewood, Illinois, at 2 o’clock Saturday afternoon, Febru­ ary 1. Interment was made in the her sister, Mrs. H. H. Sawyer, in the beautiful cemetery at Edgewood. Illinois. .Miss Sarah M. Kocher, daughter of Samuel and Lucretia Kester Kocher, was bom in Columbia county. Penn­ sylvania, February 19. 1848, and died in Alton, Illinois, at the age of 87 years, 11 months, and 11 days. In 1855, when Miss Kocher was sev­ en years of age, her parents moved from Pennsylvania to Michigan, where she resided with her parents, brothers and sisters, until they had all passed on. Then, in April, 1933, she went to Illinois to live with her niece, Mrs. Nellie Sprouse. On December 14, 1933, she had the misfortune to fall and break her hip. She was immed­ iately taken to the Effingham hospi­ tal and was later removed to the hos­ pital at Alton, where she passed away January 30, 1936. Miss Kocher was of Scotch-German descent, raised in the Quaker faith. She was a constant reader of. and a good student of the Bible, so long as her health and eyes would permit. She was of a very kind and gentle disposition, and a very faithful nurse in the home. She was an accomplish­ ed needlewoman and spent many hours making beautiful things with her needle, which she gave mostly to her friends. Miss Kocher never mar­ ried, but devoted her life faithfully to her parents, brothers and sisters. She leaves to mourn her passing on, one niece, Mrs. Nellie Sprouse, and family of Edgewood, Illinois, end a host of friends in Nashville. Sunset and evening star. And one clear call for me!

With no local bonus bureau for the World war veterans in Nashville, it is difficult to say how many from this village there may be who will profit by the long fought for bonus, passed over the President’s veto by this Con­ gress. Some of the Vets here belong to American Legions in nearby towns, and would likely file their applications there. Others have them notarized here. In the state the amount of bonus money will be approximately 375.000,­ 000. The amount the boys get depends on whether there have been loans, the number of days served, and whether the veteran went overseas or not. It will be some time yet before they get their money. It’s going to be a God­ send to many of the boys. Many of the World war Vets have passed on this winter, according to newspaper reports. The regular bi-weekly meeting of the Woman’s Literary club was held at the library on Wednesday after­ noon of last week. Those present an­ swered roll call by telling how long had been members of the club. vVhile some had been members but a little over one year, others had be­ longed for more than thirty years. Mrs. F. S. Boies was voted a mem­ ber, at the business session. Mrs. William Wallace acted ps hoet­ eas for the afternoon. Mrs. Nelson Brumm gave a paper, "If my Daugh­ ter Should Study Grand Opera.” She said her daughter must have a desire to study grand opera, must have good health, and patience to study before it would be deemed feasible to have her take up the study. As her mother, she said, she would see to it that her mind was developed and expanded, that she learned to understand what she was acting, and that she would take care of her physical and mental health. Mrs. Brumm said it would be neces­ sary for her daughter to study the manners, thoughts and history of the people to be portrayed. She spoke of languages, saying she thought Italian, French and German should be mas­ tered. She went on to say that sight reading was very important and that piano should be taught to those wish­ ing to take up grand opera. She point­ ed out the importance of waiting un­ til a girl is seventeen or eighteen be­ fore starting the actual voice culture. In closing, she said that the study of theory, repertoire and acting were of great importance. Mrs. Franz Maurer had for her subject the opera, “Madam Butter­ fly." She told of the Japanese girl. Madam Butterfly, who married the naval officer. Pinkerton. On going to her home after her marriage, the Jap­ anese girl took her few prized posses­ sions wrapped in a cloth. Although this marriage promised well at the be­ ginning, Mrs. Maurer said, it was not long before the husband tired of his native bride and left her. The wife sent word to her husband that a son had been bom to them, but he re­ mained away two years. The Japa­ nese wife was urged to give up her foreign husband and marry her old Japanese sweetheart, as desertion in Japan constitutes divorce. Three years after the marriage, Mrs. Maurer said, the husband’s ship was seen in the harbor. Madam But­ terfly makes herself and son ready to greet the husband but he fails to come that night The following day. while Butterfly sleeps after an all night vigil, the husband comes with his English wife to see if they can adopt Butterfly's son. The maid tells But­ terfly and she sends word for her husband to return alone and she will give up the child. Butterfly sends everyone out and taking a knife she brought with her when she was mar­ ried, she stabs herself. When the husband returns, Butterfly drags her­ self to his feet and dies. Mrs. Francis Pultz sang two songs. "Clouds," by Charles, and "A Winter Afternoon," by Manning. These were well received. A debate by Mrs, Chester Smith and Mrs. Maude Wotring followed. Mrs. Smith took the affirmative on the question, "Resolved, that dally publi­ cations should curtail crime news." Mrs. Smith emphasized the fact that crime news is not interesting but quite horrible, if given in detaiL She told of finding crime news not only in the dailies but in magazines, and on the radio as well. To prove her point that crime news is horrible, Mrs. Smith read an article from the Read­ ers Digest for January, "Gang Wafare. 1935." written by Emanuel H. Lavine. Mrs. Wotring, on the negative side, said that after all crime news made up but about four per cent of the news in the paper and that was not too much. She went on to say that usually the crime isn't given in detail. She pointed out that the newspaper prints the news and therefore could not hold out on the news about crime. She said she thought there was some satisfaction in reading that crim­ inals were punished for crimes com­ mitted. The final paper was on Word Study, given by Mrs. Artie Reed. She toufc for study the words: Prevent, invent, convention, expensive, depend, appen­ dix. confuse, exaggerate, vulcanize, herculean and tantalize. The study was most interesting. �Bat. Of Ings for all who are turning understandingly to God a* their refuge and strength; “Leaning on the sustain­ ing infinite!" To "lean” implies that we expect support from a source oth­ er than our own selves. One defini­ tion of the word is: to “bend so as to receive support." When we are rea­ dy to yield our false mode of think­ ing to the divine, we become recep­ tive to good, and begin to realize what our real blesuinga are. In the study of Christian Science, it is early learned that as we earnest­ ly start the day by counting our blessings and by avoiding the rehear­ sal of error, we are better fitted to cope with whatever the day may bring, to fulfill our duties, and to en­ joy the present good. Rejoicing, be­ ing joyous, is not only our right, but even a direct Biblical admonition. “Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice," says the Apostle Paul (PhilippIans 4:4). But how can one rejoice, when all may seem complicated and puzzling? And how, many a one has asked, can today—this day—with its problems, big and little, be filled with blessings ? To rejoice over our troubles would be absurd, but to rejoice in divine good while in the midst of them, is not on­ ly possible, but is the surest way to silence their claim to reality and a place in our thinking. Paql and Silas proved this long ago. But this rejoic­ ing is certainly not the old pleasure­ seeking way or the way of forced merriment. Joy is spiritual, sponta­ neous. Joy is akin to gratitude. Pure joy is an upward soaring of thought, above Borrow, lack, sin, and disease, to the mental altitude of serenity and harmony. Then fear, that great foe to happiness, disappears from our consciousness. It is undoubtedly a great help to recount our blessings and to express our gratitude for the Father's loving care and grace; and the alert Chris­ tian Scientist knows that it rests with himself alone to make each day a day of rejoicing and thanskgiving. Grati­ tude is the open archway to the king­ dom of heaven, and. "Count your blessings" is a tried and an effective password. Two subtle forms of error which try to rob us of our peace and joy are the suggestions that v«e have nothing to give or share, and that we cannot meet our obligations. We must reso­ lutely turn away from seeking the "loaves and the fishes," stop contem­ plating and counting finite matter and begin earnestly to discover our spir­ itual treasures. When we start enu­ merating and utilizing these, there will be plenty to do, plenty to give. Such giving and sharing cannot re­ turn to us void, for the "seed is in it­ self,” to use the Bible phrase. In due time the fruit of love and selflessness will appear; and during this time of growth, we must "lean" the more im­ plicitly on the outstretched hand of Washington Letter. (By Hon. Clare E.

Of course it showed a great increase in tax delinquency which was doubtless in a great measure due to the con­ stantly increasing tax burden. But it also showed in startling fashion that the best counties had many acres which could not support the tenants and at the same time meet the taxes. This is just another way of saying that under present conditions, all of our counties have many acres of mar­ ginal or sub-marginal lands. Every study goes to add testimony to that effect The various state and federal inter­ ests are agreed that a very large pro­ portion of our lands must be retired from cultivation and competition with other and better producing fields. The great question is how to do this. The federal AAA did not operate particu­ larly toward this end. In fact many of the lands released from cultivation were among our best Perhaps the answer lies in grazing, perhaps in re­ forestation. But it is comforting to know that it is being studied. Delouse Cattle By Using Powder Farmers May Make Remedy At Low Cost; Poison Mixtures Should Be Avoided. When cattle rub against posts and buildings in winter, it is a pretty good indication they are suffering from an infestation of lice, says C. B. Dibble, of the Michigan State college ento­ mology department. Many inquiries have come to the animal husbandry department of the college, asking for ways of delousing. A bulletin on cattle lice may be ob­ tained by writing to the college. When fall control has been neglect­ ed and emergency measures are ne­ cessary in winter, louse powders are the only safe desirable control, the entomologist advises. Commercial louse powders contain­ ing pyrethrum and derris, but without such poisonous materials as arsenic, fluorine, nicotine, or hellebore, may be | used. A home made recipe .recommended I by Mr. Dibble, would include one I pound of pyrethrum, three pounds flour, and four pounds louse powder, for at total cost of 60c, or 15c per pound. One-fourth of a pound should be used per animal with the treatment repeated in 14 days. Bedding should be cleaned each time. If blue lice, which do not respond to this treat­ ment, are present, six ounces of pow­ dered naphthalene or moth balls should be added. Children Need Sleep At Regular Interval* Strenuous Days, Plenty Of Rest, In­ sure Happiness For Growing Youngsters. Sleep at frequent intervals is ne­ cessary for children before the school age, according to Mary Lewis, in- I structor in Home Management at Michigan State college. Miss Lewis recently outlined essen­ tial conditions for good sleeping hab­ its and placed a strenuous day at the bead of the list “I would venture to suggest," she stated, “that the child's ordinary dai­ ly experiences are as strenuous, as stimulating, and as demanding in fre­ quent adjustments as that of an adult while on his first tour through foreign lands. “In order that children may react toward the interests of what appears to us to be a very ordinary day with the abandon chaacteristic of healthy intelligent youngsters — they must have enough sleep at frequent enough intervals to permit their bodies to re­ cover from the constant stimulations of heir waking hours." Miss Lewis insisted, however, that the sleep periods should not be drag­ ged out since it might interfere with night sleeping habits. Other conditions necessary for tho development of good sleeping habits were given as follows: (1) Regular hours for sleep should be established by parents. (2) Care should be taken to pre- . vent depletion of energy to avoid rest- I lesaness and, .in extreme cases, tan- j Crums. (3) Sleeping rooms should have1 rapidly changing currents of air. (41 Children should not be tucked in too tightly in order to permit some • (5) Children should be in good physical condition.

The company set forth in its peti­ tion that it now receives $2.50 for 2,000 cubic feet of artificial gas sold to domestic users. The new rate would be $1.80, a saving of 28 per cent to consumers. The present sub­ urban rate is $3.30 for 2,000 cubic feet and the new rate would be $1.80. The company would charge 50 cents a thousand for natural gas used for space heating. Its petition to the commission anticipated gross rev­ enues of $801,000 from the sale of na­ tural gas during the first year. It fixed the expense for the same year at $768,000, and indicated gas rates would be lowered during the second and third year. four town TEACHERS' MEETING The teachers of the townships of Maple Grove, Assyria, Johnstown and Baltimore met for the January meet­ ing at the Briggs school Thursday ev­ ening.

ATTEND FARM DEBT ADJUSTMENT CONFERENCE1 Charles Robertson of Middleville ard Glenn Wotring of Woodland re­ , cently attended a conference of Rural Rehabilitation and Farm Debt Ad­ justment committees at Grand Rap­ ids. Representatives from the region­ al office of the Resettlement Adminis­ , tration discussed conditions under which a farmer burdened with exces­ , sive debt and unable to borrow money , elsewhere may obtain a loan from the ’ Rural Rehabilitation division. The ' maimer in which farm debt adjust­ ! ment should benefit the creditor as . well as the distressed farm debtor । was emphasized. The Federal Land ( Bank sent C. L. Rose to d'scuss its policies and position as an independ­ ent loaning agency. The men named above, together with Archie D. Mc­ , Donald of Hastings, constitute the farm debt adjustment committee for Barry county. They give their time to aid worthy farmers whose debt load is excessive. The cost to far­ mers is nothing. Those wishing fur­ ther information should see any of the above committee member or the coun­ ty rural rehabilitation supervisor, G. P. Maurer, at Hastings.

The second annual Farm Bureau Family Night was held at Fuller Hall, Hastings, Friday evening, Jan. 31, Owing to the Icy roads, severe cold and snow-drifts, many were prevent­ ed from attending. One hundred twenty-five were present for the pot­ luck supper at 7:00 and the entertain­ ment that followed. The Raber orchestra opened the program with two selections. The Delton Extension group gave a half-hour play entitled "That Aw­ ful Letter," which was well rendered, and much enjoyed by the audience. R. V. Gunn, from the Economic department of Michigan State college, gave a very interesting and instruc­ tive talk on the "Agricultural Situa­ tion and Future Outlook.” Every far­ mer in the county would have profit­ ed by hearing him. After being detained, Ben Hennink, who has charge of Junior League work in the Michigan state Farm Bu­ reau, arrived and led the group in community singing. Mr. Hennink very graciously responded to a re­ quest for a vocal solo. Following the program, those who cared to dance, remained and enjoyed "old time” and modern dances. Many fine family groups were pres­ ent to enjoy the evening's entertain­ ment Barry county Farm Bureau people have shown splendid interest in this winter's meetings. At least two more meetings will be held in other parts of the county. Auto Tag Deadline Delay Widespread Many States, Other Than Michigan, Have Advanced Date For Buying New Plates. Michigan, rather than being alone with an extended final date for pur­ chase of 1936 automobile license plates. Joined many other states when the deadline was recently extended to Feb. 29 by Orville E. Atwood, Secre­ tary of State. Not many states have extended their dates so late as the one effective in Michigan; in some states the nor­ mal deadline is earlier than the 'one provided by law in this state. While adjoining Indiana granted no extension from its Dec. 31 date, so far as official notification in Lansing is concerned, Ohio's legislature recently moved the final date for plate pur­ chases to April 1. Illinois granted a 30 day extension. The bordering Canadian province of Ontario extended its deadline 30 days, with Feb. 1 the final date, according to latest official information from there. Several states extended their final plate purchase dates 45 days. Among states granting periods of grace are Iowa, Kansas and Wiscon­ sin. Louisiana extended its date from Dec. 1 to Feb. 5, a 65 day added per­ iod; Maine gave its car owners an ac­ tual Christmas present by extending the time from Dec. 25 to March 1. Minnesota moved its deadline back 90 days, from Dec. 31 to April 1. North Dakota led the parade by ex­ tending its deadline from Dec. 31 to May 16, a deferment of about 136 days as compared with Michigan's 60 days. The three Pacific Coast states made no concessions to their car own­ er. but delays are spotted throughout the nation's map. Wyoming with 60 days and Oklahoma with 90 days be­ ing among those where delays were secured. Michigan residents are warned by Mr. Atwood not to drive outside of the state without their 1936 license plates as it is possible they might encounter some difficulty with the authorities of the other states.

Daring the World war he served tn from other states have been held up at the state border since Michigan egg grading regulations went into effect Jan. 1, the Commissioner said. Surrounding states have strict grad­ ing regulations for eggs, and prior to now have been dumping off-grade eggs into Michigan. Commissioner Thomson meanwhile is conducting an intensive egg grad­ ing educational campaign and hopes to have the industry in line for strict enforcement of the new rules by the first of July. "We hope to start a strict enforce­ ment campaign within a few months after egg handlers and shippers are familiar with the regulations and have adjusted themselves to them," Thom­ son said. The egg regulations call for grad­ ing as to quality only. Four grades are provided for. "Fancy," and grades “A." "B" and “C." The Indiana and Ohio borders are being closely watched by department of agriculture field men in an effort to prevent shipment into the state of ungraded eggs. No prosecutions have been started by the department as yet but dealers who handle out-of-state eggs that are not graded are being warned to cease this practice. —Ionia county is to have a full time county agricultural agent Every agricultural county in the state of Michigan has provided the necessary expense money for travel and office expenses for a full time agricultural agent. This han been made possible by the new funds which were approprfated from Washington during the last erosion of Congress, through a bill known as the .Smith-Jones bill. This provided the Michigan State col­ lege with a fund of $188,000 by which the Michigan State college is able to pay the entire salaries of ail county agricultural agents, thus relieving the counties from any winmtty of appro­ priating anything for salaries.

Decreased feed costs for Michigan dairies was reported for December by state cow testers, the report based on cost records A. C. Baltzer, extension dairyman at the Michigan State college, attrib­ uted the decline In feed costa to de­ pendence on home grown feeds. "The summaries of Michigan cow testers for December reveal a very high percentage of the dairymen de­ pending largely on hom-grown feeds," he said. "Little improvement has oc­ curred in dairy herds where the feed is not home grown." The report stated that cow testers inspected 1000 herds in all parts of the state and tested 14,000 cows for economical production. Good sales of bulls from dairy asso­ ciation herds was also reported for December. Fewest Forest Fires Are Recorded In 1935 Total Acreage Burned (Ker Was About 18,119. 1,457 Fires Were Counted. Forest fire was thrown for a heavy loss in Michigan last year. The revised figures of fire occur­ rences and quantitive forest damage, recently compiled, sustain the expec­ tations of Michigan’s conservation au­ thorities in setting the lowest record of fire loss in the state’s history. Only 1,457 fires were counted in the 18,965,582 acres of forest-game cover under protection and only 18,119 acres —a ratio of less than one per cent— were burned over. The average acre­ age devastated per fire was 12.44 and the average cost of suppression per acre, 17 cents. Of the total acreage burned, 7,634 was tn the upper penin­ sula; 10,485 in the lower peninsula. Classification of timber burned shows a total of 170 acres of mer­ chantable timber, 3,309 acres of “pop­ ple" and approximately 5,000 acres of average second growth, the remainder being in grass plains, grass swamps, fresh slash and hayland pasture lands. Governor Fitzgerald refused to in­ terfere with the state wide tax sale scheduled for May 5. He told a dele­ gation urging a special session of the legislature for an executive proclama­ tion to halt the sale that, "I refuse to pussyfoot on the issue. As far u I am concerned the tax sale is going on." The governor said the last leg­ islature considered the whole problem of tax sales and penalties. He said there was no guarantee the legisla­ ture would feel differently now. "Many have failed to pay taxes be­ cause they are just waiting to see what the state wiM do next," the gov­ ernor continued.

Michigan'* Supreme court has rul­ ed that cities and villages didn't come under the 15-mill tax limitation, voted tn 1932 by the state legislature, so pe­ titions have been circulated in Nash­ ville and then filed with Clerk H.

Before the question is. placed be­ fore the voters, the proposal has to go to Governor Fitzgerald for ap­ proval or disappoval, but disapproval would be unlikely under the circum­ stances.

The Michigan stale ' department of agriculture is aiming its program at such a goal, declared James F. Thomson, commissioner of agriculture, in an address Wednesday evening, February 5, before a mass meet’ng of farmers attending the twenty-first annual Farmers’ Week program at Michigan State college. Sister states have marketed care­ fully graded farm produce while Michigan agriculture in competition with these states has been somewhat lax in developing modern marketing methods, the state agricultural com­ missioner asserted. Because proper grades are used, products from other midwest states have flooded the larg­ est Michigan markets. The remedy, Commissioner Thomson pointed out to the farmers assembled at East Lans­ ing, apparently can be developed thru the Michigan bonded farm produce plan. "Michigan is the first state in the Union to adopt a plan whereby farm products go to market carrying a state inspection label guaranteeing grade and quality," said Mr. Thom"Thousands of bags of Michigan potatoes shipped into Chicago are car­ rying th" bonded label, so far a prov­ ed success. After thorough investi­ gation, we find that this label is worth 35 cents on each bag of pota­ toes, bringing premium prices for the first time in many years. Back of this bonded label program is the en­ tire inspection force of the- state de­ partment of agriculture. "Each inspector has been schooled in grading regulations. Adequate po­ lice powers have been given this field staff to cover enforcement of more than 90 laws under which the depart­ ment operates, but the inspectors are carrying out their work on an educa­ tional rather than on a law enfocement basis." National action must be stirred up to halt increasing importations of foreign agricultural products, the commissioner declared. He cited the increased importations in seeds, eggs, oats, com, dried milk and butter to show increases for 3935 over importa­ tions of 1934 of from 126 per cent for seeds to 3,160 per cent for dried milk and butter. Action must be taken, the speaker asserted, to assure the American farmer the return of domestic makets. LOW LEVY HITS ANOTHER BLOW AGAINST IONIA The 15-mill tax limitation curse struck its third severe blow here in 30 days on Tuesday night, when the Ionia City Fathers ordered cancella­ tion of all insurance on the Ionia Free Fair buildings. A month ago. the City Fathers found it necessary to dismiss six city employees; darken one-half of the street lights downtown; and place the library on a reduced hour and pay basis. Two weeks ago it was definitely learned by Ionia City school officials that the 15-mill levy had been the real fly in the ointment in failure of ap­ proval for the Federal loan for the high school.

MEN A short course of managers, direc-. tors, and employees of Michigan farm cooperatives is announced by R. V. Gunn, extension specialist of econom­ ics at Michigan State college. The course, designed to provide bet­ ter business training opportunities, will be from March 9 to 14 on the campus at East Lansing and will cov­ er the following fields: Cooperative organization, finance, accountancy, business records, membership relation­ ship, business practices, and trends in the United States and in foreign countries. According to Mr. Gunn there are 540 active farmers cooperative orga­ nizations in Michigan which, together with 12 state regional cooperative or­ ganizations, do a gross business of ov­ er $78,000,000 annually. "We believe the course will fulfill a very definite need for better business training of executives, managers, and employees of cooperative organiza­ tions in Michigan," Mr. Gunn says. John W. Lentz, of Maybee, presi­ dent of the Michigan Farmers’ union, died in Monroe hospital of heart dis­ ease. He was 67 years old. He was active in the organization of the Far­ mers' union and was its first presi­ dent. He "was re-elected at the state convention in Owosso last year for his second term.

But to serve the present, we must be constantly preparing fur the future. To illustrate: In Detroit stands Michigan’s largest long distance switchboard. It represents in­ vested money, skilled labor and thorough engineering study. The need for this switchboard did not exist at the time plans were made for it But a careful survey of the future had plainly indicated that such a need was coming. And when it came, this Company was perfectly equipped to handle the heavy traffic of long distance calls that flowed in and . out of Michigan’s great industrial areas. W J The intricate mechanism behind your telephone cannot be assem­ bled overnight, nor thrown to­ gether to meet a sudden need. It must be “built ahead.” To do this intelligently — and eco­ nomically—requires an inten­ sive engineering survey of such factors as shifts in population, industrial developments and trends in real estate. The neglect of these preparations could be as wasteful as building a bridge accommodating a single lane of traffic, only to find later that additional lanes are imperative. It is not a mere academic theory that this policy of building for the future is the only way to provide high-grade telephone service. Experience has re­ peatedly demonstrated that L W there is no other way. MICHIGAN BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY �-LT — = AND FACTS.

Mr. Hoffman. I will use your figures also figures of the Brooking Institute of 1929 and of course, we expect to reach that level by keeping In circu­ lation the one and <>. half billion month by the old age pensioners. In the year of 1929 the dollar turned ov­ er 1332 times, now, let us multiply 5,­ 119,440.00 by 132 which equals 675,­ 766,080 of new value or purchasing power created in Van Buren county. Let us take a two per cent of that figure and we find it gives us 13,415,­ 321.60 transaction tay. Now, we will subtract 5,119,440 which is the cost of the old age pensioners and leave us 8,295,881.60 that sum will be used for higher wages, salaries, increase in in­ come, more business for the business man and cost of production for the farmer. Why worry about the 156.30 when we have 8,215,881.60 to divide tmong the people under sixty after we have paid off the 156.30 aa you state. For your information I will say that many of the tax dodgers and the money changers transactions will trickle down to the old age pensioners in Van Buren county. The transaction tax you know is that tex I have been preaching so long, taxation as ability to pay. This plan is a re-distribution of purchas­ ing power. The pensioners spending 5,111,440 a year is the restoration of purchasing power to the masses, therefore makes it a recovery Plan. Mr. Hoffman, the basis upon which rests our constitutional scheme of government is, that for every wrong there is a remedy and the Townsend Plan is the remedy; for the concen­ tration of wealth in the hands of a few while the greater spread each year of the distressed masses. In 1929 two-thirds of the entire savings of 15 billion were made by 2.33 per cent minority of the popula­ tion haviiig incomes in the excess of 10,000, and that families having in­ comes Of 2,500 or less spend practi­ cally all their income for bare neces­ sities and were without conveniences and luxuries. Still you maintain that 88 per cent of the income is owned by people who have less than 5,000 a year. So you see that your article on the cost of the Townsend Plan is just an­ other false alarm, just playing ghost with the American tax payer. We know it’s just the song of the money changers, as they know too well of the transaction tax, which means the tax goes Round and Round, Oh. Oh! and come back in Van Buren county. Yours truly.

EX-PREMIER OF HUNGARY HAILS SCOUTING AS AID LN PROMOTING PEACE The Boy Scout movement through­ out the world is hailed as one of the greatest forces for world peace and understanding by Count Paul Telekl, former Prime Minister of Hungary and now Honorary Chief Scout of that country, who recently visited the celebration of the Carnegie Centennary. During his stay he visited the National office of the Boy Scouts of America In New York, and Its nation­ al training center, the Mortimer L. Schiff Scout Reservation at Mendham. group of National Introduced to Scout officials in New York, Count Teleki said, "Of course, we cannot promise the world that the sun will rise on a happier day tomorrow, but we are convinced in the long run that the Scout movement and other move­ ments of similar nature will help ma­ terially to gain world comity. Count Teleki. an active leader of Scouting in his native land for many years, was the Camp Chief of the Fourth World Scout Jamboree held in Hungary in 1933, in which 400 Boy Scouts of America participated. Count Teleki praised the simplicity of the Scout movement, saying that the high points of Scouting are that it reaches into the small communities and bands boys together in small croups; that boys become Scouts vol­ untarily and carry out their activities because they wish to, and that the leadership is also voluntary. Count Teleki said he entered Scout­ ing because he "found Scouting more sighted than actual politics. the Seventh Day Adventist church was conducted in Charlotte Saturday to Bettie Creek.

Elmer Pritchard, who disclosed that 10 of the Sunday school pupils had attended more than 48 of the 1935 Sunday school sessions, four of them having been present for the entire 52 sessions, and some for 49, others for 50 of the sessions, four groups tn all. and a fine showing. They closed by singing "Blest Be the Tie That Binds." William Poole Thompson was born December 26. 1856. near Rochester. New York. While still a young boy, he moved with his parents and two sisters to Western Michigan, settling at Pine Grove near South Haven, where he lived until he grew to man­ hood.

'• Detailed analysis of the important divisions in the-livestock, fruit, truck gardening, and grain fields, together with surveys of recent and probable future trends, indicate what develop­ ments might be expected for state ag­ riculture in the coming year. Declines are anticipated in the price of such farm costs as feeds, fertiliz­ ers, and some seeds. No significant changes are expected in. the prices of farm machinery and building mater­ ials. While farm wages will advance, according to the studies, favorable farm prices will be rising much fast­ er than farm costs. Increased consumer demands com­ bined with continued good prices in livestock promise to increase the cash income and to make 1936 the second successive year in which farm prices have swung upwards. Elimination of the depression disparity between agri­ cultural and non-farm prices will be almost completely eliminated, it is ex­ pected. Summaries of these studies are in­ cluded in the latest issue of the Agri­ cultural Economic News for Mich­ igan, published at Michigan State col­ lege, East Lansing. Copies may be had by writing for the seventh issue to the Bulletin department at the col­ lege. The issue is known as the Ag­ ricultural Outlook for 1936. Among the specific forecasts made are the following: The demand . for horses will be strong for the next three to five years with colts and young mares suitable for both breeding and heavy work leading the market Dairy products prices will remain favorable partly because of the reduc­ tion in dairy animals through disease eradication programs. Poultry pro­ ducts will be profitable because of low feed costs and shortage of poultry supplies. High lamb and wool prices will continue for 1936 because of the low quantity in 1935. Hog and beef cattle prices will be maintained for the first six months, when prices will be affected by in­ creased production ready for the mar­ ket With average crops Michigan truck gardeners should do better than last year. Celery, onions, and tomatoes are due for acreage reductions. Can­ ning companies are ordering increas­ ed acreage especially for tomatoes. Sugar beet prices are uncertain partly because of the illegality of the processing tax. Potato prices should rise while the acreage will remain the same as in 1931k Increased acreage of wheat will depress the price. A carry-over of two and a half million bags of Michigan beans will also de­ press bean prices. Increased consum­ er purchasing power will increase sales of fruit but local conditions and carry-overs from 1935 will definitely affect the price.

Mater and dau- ' ghter Patty Adell. Jackie DeFoe and Ton* Of Baby Fish Pro­ duced By Hatcheries Total Of Year’s Planting Is Heaviest Since 1930, It Is Stated By . Authorities. More than 100 tons of baby fish were produced at the 14 state hatch­ eries and planted in the inland lakes and streams of the state during the past year to Improvs fishing. State fisheries authorities at Lans­ ing, who have just finished compiling the totals for 1935, have found that the year’s planting iq the Inland wat­ ers is the heaviest since 1930. The number of fry and fingerlings planted amounted to approximately 106,170,­ 000 and their aggregate weight was 206,506 pounds — or more than 103 tons. These totals, however, do not in­ clude small plants of bullheads, sun­ fish and forage fish consisting of Great Lakes and golden shiners and crayfish, which number approximately 5,500,000. In addition to the plantings in the inland waters, state fisheries men made an even heavier planting in Great Lakes waters—132,269,900 fish. Of this number 130,850,000 wall-eyed pike fry went into Saginaw Bay and 1,419,900 lake trout were planted in Lakes Huron and Michigan off Alcona. Delta, Mackinac and Schoolcraft counties.

Current 8<un!« of the Department license plates contains an error of * This condition is not the fault of the managers of the branch offices of the Department of State nor of their clerks. Each application is carefully checked but when “rush” days occur there is not sufficient time for a de­ tailed check of each application sub­ mitted. with the result that errors sometimes pass unnoticed. A recent typical "rush" day showed that a to­ tal of 33.239 applications for plates and half-year permits or ‘‘stickers" was forwarded to the state capltol from branch offices, and that about 1.000 had to be segregated for further checking. . A former Secretary of State once estimated that the errors made by the tax-payers cost the state about $50,­ 000 annually because of the necessity for involved investigation and other similar activities. Natural’y. the er­ rors mMe by motorists in making out their license applications would make up a large portion of this. People who write their "signatures" rather than their names cause grief; others, in writing long serial or engine numbers on opposite portions of an application, will become confused. Others fail to furnish necessary in­ formation. In the meantime, of course, they have their plates and the state has the application whclh must be held up for study and investiga­ tion. These errors also cause delay in the return of titles to the applicants. Townsend Club Members. The Townsend club books are all here now and may be secured at Mr Jaffe's dry goods store. Quailtrap P.

Obviously, a per­ son ignorant of law and procedure would have difficulty in property pre­ paring a case for presentation to any court. These cases have, in fact, be­ come so common that they present a real problem to the - Supreme court and claim a great deal of the court’s time. Another very interesting case is that of Montgomery Ward and sev­ eral other companies who do a mail order business in Michigan as well as in other states. In cases where the customer orders, for example, a suit of clothes, being measured at the lo­ cal branch, it is the custom of the company to send in for approval a number of suits near that measure­ ment On sales made in this way the company claims that a sales tax should not be paid. There are so many of these that the state woud lose a very substantial sum if the con­ tention of the companies should be upheld. feet Is that of Brackovic vs. Liquor Control cummf—inri The plaintiff in this case lost his license to operate a beer garden because a raid discover­ ed "hard liquori’ on the premises. He alleged that the search was illegal, and the Wayne county circuit court held witikhlm. The state’s contention is that t£p circuit court had no juris­ diction oUsr state officers. It further contends that the search was legal. This case will have considerable bear­ ing on the future operation of the Li­ quor Control commission. New Commissioner At Work. Howard C. Lawrence has taken ov­ er the task of handling the banks of Michigan as Banking commissioner succeeding Rudolph Reichert, resign­ ed. Mr. Lawrence comes to the office with a wealth of experience and train­ ing which will make him invaluable in the position. For many years, while connected with the Fred Green inter­ ests. he was active in banking, and since then has had the valuable training of being State Treasurer and receiver for several large banks. Mr. Lawence has the pesonallty required for this work. He is naturally judicial In temperament, and for years has had the experience of big business training. Michigan has had many strong men in the position of Banking commis­ sioner, but without doubt none of them have come to the office with the experience and ability possessed by Mr. Lawrence. mission will shortly hold hearings on this question and also on the question as to whether Chicago shall be so in­ cluded. In the case of the latter city there seems to be a fight between The Chicago Tribune and The Chicago Dally News, with the Tribune sup­ porting the change to eastern stan­ dard time and the News opposing It If Chicago is denied its request for transfer to the eastern standard time belt. It is questionable whether west­ ern Michigan will be included tn that zone. If the Interstate Commerce commission refuses to recognize the necessity for the change, the only re­ lief will 6e in an act of Congress. Cer­ tainly, it would be a great conven­ ience to have railroad schedules thruout lower Michigan based on eastern standard time. Too Many Speeches. Governor Frank D. Fitzgerald is having a bitter experience these days because of the tremendous demand on his time for speech making. He is in constant demand for banquets and other occasions. Last week he drove 1200 miles in order to meet the var­ ious rails upon his time. This is more than any man should be asked to do when he has the executive problems which constantly face the governor of Michigan. Governor Fitzgerald feels that the time Is speedily coming when the people must decide whether they want a speech maker or an executive as Governor of Michigan. It is al­ most physically impossible to be both. Snow Problems. The officials of the state highway department are spending their wak­ ing hours in an effort to solve the transportation problems which our un­ precedented snowfalls have involved The telephone constantly rings, ask­ ing whether certain roads are open or for aid in releasing marooned fam­ ilies. Tfce snow storm at the end of last week was the crowning catastro­ phe, and many people found them­ Many selves completely belated. cases of sickness or fuel or food shortage made it imperative that the roads be opened. The department did its best to meet such emergency calls. The worst conditions last week end were found in western and southwes­ tern Michigan. In upper Michigan the roads have been kept compara­ tively clean, so that several of the huge rotaries and "snogoa” were brought from the northern peninsula to southwestern Michigan to aid in the problem of snow removal. The snow fighters have been consoling .themselves with the thought that con ­ . ditions could be bad for only a tew more weeks. Stop Leasing. The Conservation <department. which is charged with the duty of selling or leasing mineral and oil rights, has recognized the decision In the famous Nick Krench case to the extent that they are no longer leasing , questionable lands. Only properties to which the state holds the surface rights are now being sold or leased to oil development companies. The. state is appealing the decision of the lower court but will not be able to have It brought before the Supreme New Teachers’ Requirements. court until the June session. Some time ago a committee was ap­ pointed to discuss the entire matter of teachers’ certification. This com­ Boundary Dispute. mittee has just made Its report to Over a decade ago Michigan and Eugene B. Elliott, Superintendent of Wisconsin were engaged in a bitter Public Instruction.

We elected officers and played games. A lunch was served and then we went home. Few persons can change th«4r places of residence without, as a mat­ ter of routine, notifying certain com­ mercial firms with which dealing* er accounts are maintained. Relatively few licensed drivers of motor vehfcte in the state have ever realized that the same law which requires that they be licensed also stipulates that they must notify the Department of State “immediately" of any change in resi­ dence address. Notification is made through local police and sheriffs* headquarters; these officials have pro­ per notification forms. The 1931 licensing statute provides that fafiure to have any change of ad­ dress recorded in the prescribed man­ ner may be cause for revocation or suspension of an operator's or chauf­ feur's license. The Department of State has bee* unable, on many occasions, to furnish the correct home address of licensed operators in this state when the ap­ peal for aid in locating people sought was for the purpose of notifying friends or relatives of injuries or even death. "Missing’’ persons have been sought in the records of the Depart­ ment of State by relatives who knew that the person sought was a licensed automobile driver in Michigan In unsuccessful cases, failure to locate the missing person was attributable only to negligence on the part of the operator to file his change of address —whenever made—with the Depart­ ment of State. There are many instances in which badly injured persons can be identified only by the names on their driven' licenses, but when the addresses are wrong delays in more complete iden­ tification are experienced and tn some cases, of course, It Is Impossible ever to trace the residence. . State Department officials advise that all licensed chauffeurs and oper­ ators check their home addresses on their licenses. It requires only a few moments to property record the cor­ rect address and any subsequent changes which may be made. Sports. We did play King of the Castle. We have not played It for a long time.

With ley roads and snow multiply­ Ing traffic hazards by throwing cars into skids and sideslips, Orville E. At­ wood. secretary of state, issued the following warning to Michigan motor­ ists. ’’Protect yourself and the other fel­ low this slippery weather by follow­ ing the advice so clearly set down in "We Drivers,’’ that excellent little book on safe driving. I quote a few pertinent points: 1. Slow down by a series of brief, moderate brake actions instead of one continuous pressure, quite a distance from where you want to stop. 2. Do not disengage the clutch as soon as the brakes are applied but wait until the car has almost stopped 3. Treat every slippery curve or turn as though it were going to be a stop. 4. With power turning the wheels, you are less likely to skid. 5. Test the surface of the road as you would test a slippery step if you are walking. Gently apply the brakes. If the car does not skid, resume speed and apply brakes again a little more firmly. You can thus determine the surface and estimate the degree of caution required for safety. 6. You may avoid slipping in start­ ing by very slowly starting the en­ gine in second or high.” Bid* For Pavement Construction Let Work On US-27 Between Olivet And Charlotte Will Be Started In Spring.

A small scratch is made on the arm and a drop of the serum is absorbed Into it At the end of twen­ ty-four hours, there may be a small rod spot around the scratch, but it disappears quickly and it is not sore.

Mr. Roth, County Sanitary Engin­ eer, talked to the pupils enrolled in the advanced Smith-Hughes Agricul­ ture and Home Economics classes on Wednesday. His talk centered around a safe water supply and sanitary sewage disposal. A safe palatable water supply is more important than food. Water should be clean, colorless, attractive and free from odor. Shallow, open or driven wells are usually not safe and free from con­ tamination by human and animal re­ fuse. Wells should never be located so that seepage from the toilets and barn yard may reach the well. Driven or drilled wells are not safe sources of water supply unless the pit opening is drained in a satisfactory manner and the pipe supported by a concrete base so that it doesn't work loose in the soil and form a funnel like opening around the top of the pipe. All well pits should be covered with a tight water proof concrete covering. Frost pits should be dug from five to seven feet in depth. Typhoid fever is often spread to new victims by water leaking from improperly designed toilet-pits to the source of the drinking water supply. Water without mineral content is too soft to be palatable to human be­ ings. The total hardness of water may be measured by the amount of soap necessary to neutralize the hard­ ness. City water is usually filtered and chlorinated. When water is allowed to remain quiet for any length of time the harmful organisms sink to the bottom of the reservoir. Sunlight is an important factor in destroying harmful organisms. Not all out of door toilets are dan­ gerous. If constructed according to I plans and specifications of the Public Health Service, they may prove sat-1 isfactory in some localities. Fly con- j trol is important The Barry county Health Unit will' supply bulletins, information and help I to any one in the commulty who de- ' sires to build a septic tank. Septic tanks are the best devices for the! sanitary disposal of sewage on farms and other locations where there is no, public sewage system. । The Smith-Hughes boys enrolled in the home economics unit are planning on cooking and serving their dinner Munday. The Smith-Hughes classes, boys and girls, plan on canning and processing meat next week. The products to be canned will be scaled in tin cans and not the Mason type glass jars. School Project Gets Break. This moderation in the weather is giving the school project a real break. A full crew was at work Tuesday, and it seemed probable that all of the foundations would be completed this week, providing weather conditions remain favorabft. A patriotic program commemorat­ ing the birthday of George Washing­ ton was given Friday afternoon, Feb. 21, before a large assembly of stu­ dents, teachers and visitors. The au­ dience was particularly impressed by the beautiful and appropriate cos­ tumes which were featured in the tableaux. This unique, varied pro­ gram with its humor and pathos was presented by Mr. Johnson's American History class with the thought of bet­ ter acquainting our students with the history, love of country, devotion to duty, and other eminent characteris­ tics of the first President of the Unit­ ed States. Monday the class was rewarded for its admirable cooperation and dili­ gent work when Mr. Johnson gave the performers a very pleasant surprise. This surprise consisted of tea and two chocolate cakes beautifully decorated in honor of George and Martha Wash­ ington. With better buying as the object in view, the sociology class is making a thorough study of rackets, racketeer­ ing, false advertising and other ques­ tionable activities which annually cost the American people approxi­ mately one billion dollars or about eight dollars per capita.

MONDAY EVENING BRIDGE CLUB MET Funeral Here. Was One Of Admin­ istrator* Of C. L. Giaa- gow Estate. Leonard Miller of Ann Arbor, who had rpent much of his earlier life here In the home of his sister and husband, Mrs. Cassius L. Glasgow and Mr. Glasgow, working for fifteen years in the furniture department of the Glasgow store and knowing ev­ eryone hereabouts in those days, pass­ ed away Saturday night in the Pitts­ burgh Homeopathic hospital, 12 hours after removal there from his hotel, his death a shock to relatives and friends alike. He has been engaged in the manu­ facturing or selling of furniture for years and was on an eastern selling ♦rip for the several companies he rep­ resented at the time of his fatal seiz­ ure. Mr. Miller had not fully recovered <rtm a motor accident in which he and Mrs Mil’.er were both injured as they were returning to Ann Arbor from Birmingham and a Thanksgiving family event there in the home of their daughter Hortense, Mrs. Thos. H. Adams, and Mr. Adams. Word of his passing and plans for bringing the remains here came to H. D. Wotring, the two being administra­ tors of the C. L. Glasgow estate, which work has brought Mr. Miller here from time to time, his last visit less than a month before his death. Mr. Miller married a Nashville girl, Hortense Osmun, whose parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Osmun, operated the Wolcott House on Main street, and they lived in Nashville for a time, residing later in Port Huron, Lansing and Ann Arbor, the family home for over 20 years. Immediate relatives are the widow, two children, a daughter, Mrs. Thos. H. Adams of Birmingham, and a son, Cassius L. Millen and four grandchil­ dren; a brother, Frank Miller, resid­ ing in the east; and two sisters, Mrs. Glasgow and Mrs. Brumm of Grand Rapids. The remains arrived here Monday night and were taken to the Hess Funeral Home where the funeral ser­ vices were conducted by Rev. M. E. Hoyt of the Nashville M. E. church Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock. The remains were placed in the mauso­ leum at Lakeview cemetery, and the bearers were L. H. Cook, J. C. Furnias, J. C. McDerby L. W. Feighner. Lee Bailey and F. C. Lentz. Among those present were Mrs. Miller, wbo has not recovered from her motor accident as yet; Mr. and Mrs. Thomas H. Adams of Birming­ ham. C. L. Miller of Detroit; Mrs. C. L. Glasgow, Mr. and Mrs. Bert Brumm of Grand Rapids. C. Of C. Hold Regular February Meeting Held At IOOF Temple Monday Even­ ing, With Dinner Served By Re­ bekah Committee. The Nashville Chamber of Com­ merce held its February meeting at the IOOF temple. There were twen­ ty-seven members present, and two rusts, Boyd Stockford, who with Don VanDerveen recently bought the Postoffice Pharmacy, and Roger War­ ner, who succeeded J. M. Scott with the Standard Oil Co. Following a fine dinner served by a committee of the Rebekah lodge, a short business session was held. Sec­ retary Remington stated that he had had some correspondence with con­ cerns in regard to a business location in Nashville, but nothing definite had materialized. The matter of the 15-mill tax pro­ position, which is to be voted on at the coming village election, was taken up and discussed from its various an­ gles at coeniderable length. Feeling that a great many voters did not thoroughly understand this proposition, it was suggested that a committee be appointed to secure one or more speakers from communities where the tax is now operative, to ad­ dress a meeting to be held at the Star Theater next week, date to be an­ nounced later. The committee appointed to make the arrangements are W. A. Vance, L. W. Feighner, F. S. Boies, and J. C. Hurd. Vern McPeck. after a very consid­ erable period of faithful and efficient service as a member of Nashville’s Volunteer Fire Department, and a lesser period as village marshal, has resigned from both. Mrs. L. W. Feighner was hostess Monday evening to the Monday Even­ ing Bridge club for the usual gener­ ous potluck supper and evening of bridge, on the night of the Chamber of Commerce meeting Mrs. J. C. Fumist. and Mr*. W. A. Vance receiv­ ed the bridge prizes. Northrup For Aooeooor.

Feb­ ruary 28, 27 and 28, for the fifth meeting with the clothing specialist, Miss Eleanor Cramer, Michigan State college. County Agent Foster states this lesson will take up "Fitting Your Dress" and is one of the important lessons of the course of six lessons on county groups this winter. Nearly 500 Barry county women are enrolled In this instructive and entertaining course from Michigan State college. Miss Cramer stamps individuality is the outstanding advantage of making one's own clothes and the dress which each leader will exhibit at this meet­ ing will prove the originality of these home sewers. Careful attention to perfect fitting, to well designed neck­ lines and collars, and other details will be given. Adapting the fitted pat­ tern to a foundation slip is an added use for the pattern upon which the] women have been working. Prof. O. L Gregg, specialist in Landscaping Architecture, from Michigan State college, addressed the Community club in Delton on Tuesday evening, February 25. Prof. Gregg has made landscape planting plans for a considerable num­ ber of Barry county farm homes over plans have been carried out and do a great deal to add to the appearance of our farm homes . The plantings also Increase the enjoyment of the farm home and will as materially Increase the value of the farm. For the past few years people around Delton have shown an interest in this work and requested Prof. Gregg's 'services in making planting plans for certain farm homes. Mr. Foster scheduled this meeting with the Community club to further ex­ plain the-work and crystalize the in­ terest intc a definite landscape lesson course for the community to run thru next winter. Prof. Gregg demonstrated with a built-up canvas or picture the general principles he used in farm landscape plans. The meeting also afforded an opportunity for people to ask Prof. Gregg individual questions regarding plans he has made for them in past years. The noise of the men working on the addition makes it hard to be heard in the first and second grade room—what will it be as the work ad­ vances and the weather makes it ne­ cessary to open the windows? The boginneni' group In first read­ ing have completed the Pre-Primer and have begun to read from the Elson Primer. The Primer class are eager to com­ plete their Primer this month and ex­ pect to read from one or two supple­ mentary primers before school is out. The other two groups in the first year reading class have just finished a study on "Pets" and expect to stu­ dy "Milk” next week. Just now they are busy dramatizing stories from the Elson Book One. Dramatization is one of the high lights in reading. The second year reading classes are planning a book of their own based upon the Health Habits. They are go­ ing to make their room the neatest and best looking room in the school house. The second grade artlthmetlc class­ es have been buying and selling tn a play store for the past three weeks. They are now learning to tell time. —-Mrs. Butler NHS DEFEATED BY HOWELL IN ELIMINATION DEBATE The Nashville high school debating team ended its season last Friday af­ ternoon by losing to the affirmative team from Howell ii the first state elimination debate.

They laid more and bigger eggs to attain a January av­ erage production of 58.4 per cent, as compared to the estimated laying av­ erage of about 35 per cent throughout the state. These facts are revealed in a sum­ mary of the Michigan Egg Laying contest results for January prepared by C. G. Card, professor of poultry husbandry at the college. The hens remain at the college for the duration of the competition which lasts until October 23, 1936, and are housed in ordinary chicken coops. ceed one and one-half per- cent of the assessed valuation of said property except taxes levied for the payment of interest and principal on obliga­ tions heretofore incurred, which sums shall be separately assessed in all cases.

While your correspondent was hav­ ing the flu the past four weeks, she had plenty of time to think of the many friends who had been sick for months and years. One friend, espe­ cially. a young man 18 years old, who lived near Ann Arbor who took a se­ vere cold one night while going home. He became very sick, and at the end of two years he had what we now call arthritis. He soon became perfectly helpless and laid on his bed for 37 years in a badly crippled condition. The last 12 years he was totally blind. His father died, his mother died, and old Auntie, who then took care of him. died. The neighbors said you could have washed your hands in the tears ho shed when his Auntie left, for he thought that they would then take him from his home. But another per­ son came and took care of him. Three kind neighbors came every noon for 14 years to move him with ropes and pulleys, and he was so thankful, hav­ ing a smile for everyone, for he knew them by their voice. He told the peo­ ple he was a saved man, for the Lord saved him on his bed of suffering. Finally the Lord said, “Well done, thou good and faithful servant."

She’s the kid you can’t resist; you laugh and also cry a little, and love her for her talent -"Thanks a Million." the new 20th Century Fox production, brings the season’s top mirth and melody pro­ duction. The picture is replete with catchy new tunes by Gus Kahn and Arthur Johnston, followed the cock­ eyed adventure of a tank-town show troupe headed by Fred Allen.

Bette Davis has the role of personal secretary to the ruthless head of a powerful band of racketeers, getting her job without realizing what it is, but after learn­ ing the secrets of the gang she can’t step out. However, she steps out af­ ter harrowing experiences, to go on a honeymoon, and her former boss goes to Alcatraz prison through the clev­ er work of George Brent, a reporter, who is also allied with the govern­ ment as an under-cover man.

Ninth grade girls are busy at the sewing machines these days. They have made holders, some of which re­ sembled a block of Grandmother’s quilt, and incidentally learned to op­ erate the machines in use in our de­ partment. Now they are divided in their activities. Several of the girls are rather accomplished in sewing, and are making dresses for small sis­ ters or other girls. The beginners are making aprons which, wn are sure, shall be very nice looking. On Monday occurs the annual elec­ tion of the village, with two tickets in the field, and an amendment to be voted on. L. G. Cole is heading the Republi­ can ticket, and Gail Lykins the Demo­ cratic. Amendment of the village charter is necessary if the village is to come under the 15-mill tax limitation, which has to be voted on by cities and villages. The four petitions passed locally, ‘seeking the presentation of the amendment for the village election, had to be approved by the governor. Three were returned with the approv­ al, the fourth being found and later returned while the arrangements were going forward for the election with the fourth petition in hand ne­ cessary to make it official. If the weather conditions continue springlike, there should be a goodly number at the polls. NUMBER 35. Picture? . MRS. J.

Olmstead, 78, vice president and director of the former State Savings Bank of Nashville, and a resident of Nashvile for 20 years, passed on at 1 p. m. Friday at his home on South Main street. Mr. Olmstead had been out of health for quite a number of years, but had been confined to his home but three weeks. 10 days of period to his bed. His condition had taken a decided change for the worse the Tues­ day preceding his death. He had failed fast since the passing of his wife last June. Prior to taking up his residence in the village. Mr. Olmstead had been successfully engaged in farming for 30 years or more, and by a coinci­ dence his two farms were both on sec­ tion 2 of Assyria township. His sec­ ond farm of 80 acres, with a log house and straw sheds at the time of his purchase, was increased by him to 295 acres with modem buildings. This farm is now owned by his son. Earl Olmstead. With his farming, was a fondness for horses, particularly good driving horses, for use on the highways. He was quick to note the possibilities of development of these, buying them and fixing them up, for a later profit as well os liking to do it. After leaving the farm he was as­ sociated with 3. E Powers in the handling of wool. Adelbert DeForest Olmstead was bom in Bellevue township April 4, 1857, and departed this life at his home in Nashville, Feb. 28, 1938. His boyhood days were spent on a farm near Bellevue. On Dec. 13. 1882, he was married to Etna Flor­ ence Cargo, of the same place, who preceded him in death June 15. 1935. He leaves to mourn their loss two sons. Eari D. of Nashville and Clar­ ence W. of Detroit, and one daughter. Hazel May Goltz of Royal Oak; six grandchildren and three great-grand­ children. One son, Lloyd E, died in childhood. He also leaves one sister, Mrs F. B. Garrett of Battle Creek; two brothers, Alfred and Dan of As­ syria, and one half-brother, Orin Kim­ berly of Bellevue.

Tuesday was an Important day for the WPA-village water project It marked the transfer of. the four tons of pump house equipment from the Michigan Central freight house, where it has been stored since its arrival some time ago. to the pump house. Cement bases, carefully prepared, were ready for the placing of the two units, the Diesel engine and its beltdriven pump, and the gasoline auxil­ iary unit. It was day's work for the crew, Frnnk Green's truck being used in tho transfer. The severe weather and heavy snows have hindered the completion of the pump house, which has yet to be shingled, to be plastered inside, but with warmer weather than we had in February; the pipes have to be placed, the machinery set, the steps leading to the basement con­ structed, and other things. The mayor was one of the "crew,” which was a busy one Tuesday.

You are urged to come to school to observe your child at work, and to discuss his progress with his teacher. 1he items below appear on the report card and are more fully explained here. ' Health: The school and the home are working together to help children build habits of healthful living. We want them to have an understanding of the need for good health and why the daily practice of these habits is important. Social Relationships and Emotional Growth: It is important for children to be able to live with other people in' a happy, helpful way. Living with children in school gives your child opportunity for learning through practice and under teacher guidance the hapits and attitudes which make him a better member of his group. The school works for growth in self­ control. in ability to realize and make the right use of own powers, in abil­ ity to lead or follow, and in other bet­ ter ways of living together. Attitudes and Habits at Work: The building of good habits of work, and right attitudes toward work is an im­ portant part of the child’s life. Chil­ dren need to grow in the ability to do their own work well and to work with others. To do this, they must grow in initiative and independence, as well as in ability to contribute in a worthwhile way to the interests of the group. Learning to be responsi­ ble for knowing the right thing to do, doing it, and judging the results is important —Miss Dorothy Kemp. Second Grade Language. The second grade spends one hour each day with Miss Kemp in the kin­ dergarten room. During this time they have language, music and art. In this class there are a great many activities and many people are won­ dering just what connection they have with language. An activity of interest developed in the first and second grades on Mon­ day this week. The children in the lower grades are naturally great dra­ matize™ and it takes little to stimu­ late this process. Different activities connected with the junior play which were centered in the kindergarten room, were the motivation for the work. During the week preceding, the children during their free period in language, started to have plays, using two large tables put together as a stage. They staged one, "Mickey and Minnie Mouse," which was a pro­ duct of their own ideas and imagina­ tion. Another play was of the “Three Bears." Monday, on arriving for their lan­ guage class, they found a large box; looking over contents they found dres­ ses, skirts, hats, gloves, purses, jew­ elry and Chinee kii^onos. The children were allowed to dress up and of course this is one of the greatest joys of childhood The children started to enact the scenes from the junior play which many had seen. A great many people may think the above activity is a bit irregular, but does it not provide a stimulation for expression? Will it not be material for a story to tell orally to others? Will it not be an interesting subject to write about, learning to spell words they have not before had a desire, opportunity or necessity to learn? It is our hope and ambition to provide children with enough activities so closely associated with natural child hood that we may teach them to think, use muscles, read, write, and talk. Why should school life keep children sitting quietly in their seats? How long could you sit still? Do not adults do things better if they are in­ terested? Think how much easier and more delightful it is for children to learn under activities which are so closely akin to their nature. If the child is Interested in what he is do­ ing, he presents no problem in disci­ pline. Therefore he continues with a happy school life, learning in a natu­ ral situation the things which will be most important in his adult life. —Miss Dorothy Kemp. WPA Activity Schedule.

We learned that animals were grouped Into ten phylums, and then into classes. We learned the characteristics of each phylum and then had several animals, to classify. Tfie book we purchased a little while ago has been found very useful by the students of both the boys’ and girls’ sections of biology class. It has been well thumbed and all the pictures studied. It was very useful as a refer­ ence while we were writing themes about different animals and their clas­ sification. The themes were very in­ teresting, both to write and read. Lately we received a pig in the em­ bryo stage .and canned it in formalde­ hyde and placed it with our other col­ lections of canned animals and strange plants. We are now starting unit ten in our text book. It is 'How Man Helps Plants and Animals." It shows how man uses his discoveries to aid plants and animals to live better, so that we can obtain better crops and better breeds of domesticated farm animals. Birds. (By Joyce Rothaar.) We have honored Lindbergh, Byrd and others for their long flights on wings, but little honor has been given to birds who gave man his first ideas of airplanes which make these flights possible. One bird was known to make a flight from Labrador to the coast of France, over four thousand two hundred miles of ocean. It would be hard to think of a world without birds. Not to see them come in spring and leave for warmer climates in the autumn. In spring people look forward to seeing the first birds come north. Sometimes far­ mers plant their crops with the com­ ing of the birds. Fields and forests would be bare and empty without the songs of birds. Birds are also a great help to man in many ways. In one main way, by eating insects which might destroy his crops. Also by car­ rying pollen from one plant to anoth­ er, which makes it possible for croespollinatioft. Even in the dirty- dusty cities, birds brighten up the parks and small gardens of the city dwell­ ings with their songs. Men have been very careless about many of our song birds by killing them while trying to rid their fields from some of the birds which harm their crops, such as the sparrow, crow and others. Some of our most common birds are the robin, song sparrow, oriole, cardinal, blue bird, etc. During the last winter our birds have suffered from lack of food. The snow has made it almost impossible for them to survive through the long winter months. Therefore our little feathered friends would appreciate it very muhh for a few of the scrapafrom your table. . • * Scout News. * The Scouts met last week and this week at the school house because of the cold weather. In spite of this ad­ verse condition there was a large at­ tendance Leonard Jarstfer and Jun­ ior Wolff won a candy box on the lotto tournament while Paul Diaman­ te won the older boys’ ping-pong tournament, and Charles Higdon won the honor for the younger boys. George Kellogg was the first boy to v re-register for the next year, soon fol­ lowed by Seth Butler, Bob Betts, Charles Wash. Courtier Taft, Paul Diamante, Francis Sage, Junior Wolff, Charles Higdon, Leonard Jarstfer, Junior Strickland, Wayne Bera, El­ gin Pritchard, Paul Housler, Kenneth Osborne, Harold Sage, James O’Leary, Versile Babcock and Wallace Graham. Some of the older boys are working for their dues at the present time. If anyone has work that the boys could do, we would appreciate it very much if they would notify Coy Brumm or Artie Reed. Plans are under way at the Boy Scout Headquarters at Battle Creek to resume the annual Training course which will start some time in March. This Training course is open to any parent who is interested in the wel­ fare of the boys in our community. Grade Muth. The third grade is learning to sub­ tract with zeros in the minuend. They are also learning to make change by the use of toy money. The fourth grade is studying cash accounts. Each pupil will keep one of his own for a week, either real or im­ aginary. The fifth grade find the multiplica­ tion of fractions very interesting. The sixth grade is learning how to use denominate numbers. The field protractors made by the members of the seventh grade class are exceptionally good. None of the class had ever seen a real one, but used a picture in the text book as a copy. The eighth grade has finished the study of tangents and square root, and will begin some real construction within a few days. —Elimination spelling bees for Boys’ Section Biology.

Smith, 1500 ton des­ troyer, was scheduled to be launched at the Navy Yard, Mare Island, Cali­ fornia, at 10.30 a. m., February 20. The ship is named in honor of Lt. Joseph B. Smith. USN. Smith com­ manded the U. 8. S. Congress when that ship was sunk by the Confeder­ ate ram Merrimac, at Hampton Roads. Va., March 8, 1862. Launching Ceremonies. From the earliest days of sea borne craft, launching ceremonies have been performed to initiate the ship to the sea. There is a record of christening ceremonies of the date 2100 B. C. At different places and at different times these ceremonies have takn various forms and had various significances. In Tahiti it was once the custom to shed human blood at launching cere­ monies. The Chinese for centuries used water as a token of purification in the solemn priestly blessing. To­ day champagne is used. Navy To Be at Texas Centennial Exposition A specially selected company of Bluejackets will be assembled at the U. 8. Naval Training station, San Di­ ego, California, in April, 1936, where they will bo drilled in preparation for participating in the Texas Centennial Exposition. There will be four offi­ cers and 100 enlisted men in the com­ pany. The exposition will be from June to December, 1936. The U. S. 8. Minneapolis' ship's pa­ per is named "The North Star.” Colored Boys Being Enlisted. The U. 8. Navy Recruiting station is now enlisting colored boys in the navy. The ages for enlistment are 18 to 25. Information may be obtain­ ed by writing or calling at any of the Navy Recruiting stations. They are located in the following cities: Jack­ son, Flint, Lansing, Grand Rapids, Toledo, Ohio, and in the new Federal Building, Detroit U. S. S. Chandler A Lifesaver. The U. 8. S. Chandler became the hero of a life and death race early In January this year. The army trans­ port Republic had a member of her crew stricken at sea and oxygen was necessary to save him. The destroyer raced 700 miles to sea to deliver em­ ergency oxygen tanks, winning the race. When the transport docked at San Francisco, the patient was trans­ ferred to a hospital. Driving Schools. Safe driving schools are being con­ ducted for officers and men of the fleet in Southern California. This work is being done in cooperation with the Automobile Club of Southern California from whom instructions were obtained for the officers in charge of the schools. Thousands of copies of “And Sudden Death" have been distributed to the personnel of the floet by order of Admiral Reeves. Fast Rescue Of Sailor. When the Third Division of des­ troyers of the Scouting Force, con­ sisting of the U. 8. 8. Barney Breck­ inridge, Biddle, and Blakeley, were returning from maneuvers off the coast of San Diego an accident oc­ curred which showed the Blakeley to be one of the most efficient vessels of the destroyer type in the Scouting Force. Soon after entering the channel leading into San Diego Bay. a sailor on the U. S. S. Biddle, the vessel in front of the Blakeley, fell overboard, and exactly two minutes after the man fell. the crew of the Blakeley had a boat in the water and the man rescued, thus cheating Davy Jones of a Bleujacket. Smoking is not permitted on any naval ship during church services. The U. S. S. Medusa was seven years under construction. Her keel was laid in 1917 and she was com­ pleted in 1924. *■ The Spanish law was so strict dur­ ing the days of Columbus, that sailors were not allowed to undress unless they were in port for the winter. They had to be ready for duty as all times. Fifty-five of the 1934 Naval Acad­ emy graduating class were enlisted men in the regular navy before going to the Academy. Just one of the many opportunities for the man in the navy. Every man in the naval service is subjected to duty on any type of ves­ sel or naval station, in any part of the world, when so ordered by his su­ perior officer or by the Bureau of Na­ vigation.

Forecast Heavy Maple Sap Flow Severe Winter Likely To Aid Farmers In Filling Maple Sap Buckets This Spring. Michigan's maple sugar industry can expect a good yield this spring. This is the opinion of Verne H. Church, state agricultural crop statis­ tician, who has made a special study of the industry which will likely be looking for the first sap flow within a few days. "Severe winters are usually follow­ ed by a good maple sugar yield," he says. "Total rainfall and the amount of moisture in the ground determines the amount of flow of maple sugor. “If the snow and ice thaw out soon so that farmers can begin tapping the trees shortly we may expect an excellent yield. The sooner tapping is possible the better will be the yield and the quantity.” The season usually lasts four weeks but it varies with the year and weath­ er conditions. In the northern part of the state, it starts several days later than in the middle, while the season in southern Michigan opens several days earlier.

Car, Revolver, Money, And Lad Disappear All Tied Together. Locate Them In Findlay, Ohio. Outside Boy Also. Considerable excitement prevailed in Nashville the last of the week, with the disappearance of two cars Friday night from village streets, a sum of money .a revolver, and a 17 year old Nashville lad. The mystery regarding one of the cars was solved shortly, while Deputy Lorbeck. the new marshal, Don Pot­ ter, county officers and state police, working together, succeeded in locat­ ing the other car, belonging to Lloyd Marshall of Maple Grove, the local lad, the revolver,’tying in the break­ ing and entering and removal of the money, $11.85, at night from the P.

Under Sheriff Glenn Bera and Mr. Marshall went to Findlay to re­ turn the car and boys. HIRSCH HASTINGS BRANCH TO MAKE PICKLES Pickles brought to the local branch station of Hirsch Bros. & Co. the coming season, will not just be salted at the Hastings plant and sent as needed to Louisville, Ky., but they will be manufactured at the Hastings plant into sweet, sour, dill and mixed pickles of the Paramount brand. The salting station will be retained, and the new process will be an addition to the plant there. The Nashville branch was a large contributor of "cukes” last season, when Hastings plant receipts from the area were 160,000 pounds, with $80,000 to $100,­ 000 paid to the farmers raising them.

Mrs. John Appelman, generally in charge of the Appelman grocery, had a narrow escape from fatal injury at midday Saturday, when her car was struck at the Washington street crossing of Main street by a Battle Creek milk truck, an x-ray Sunday at Pennock hospital, where she. was taken by Dr. Lofdanl, showing a frac­ ture of the clavicle, ruptured liga­ ments and bruises. Mrs. Appelman had paused at the street intersection before proceeding west to park at her grocery store on the opposite side of Main and Wash­ ington ■streets, thought she was safe in proceeding, and started across. At the same time a milk truck, owned by the Sullivan Dairy Co. of Battle Creek, and driven by Gordon Riede, 631 West Michigan avenue, travelling north at a rate admitted by the driver to have been 40 miles an hour and estimated by. others at 50 or 60 miles, passed the Star Thea­ ter and had soon struck her car, which parked nicely in front of Wm. Miller's home, from the impact, with an estimated damage to the cai of $150 A cement boulevard light post at the Masonic Temple comer was sheer­ ed off by the truck, as it swerved trying to avoid hitting the Appelman car, and the driver received a nice milk or cream bath from the contents of one of the cans in the truck.- The truck was able to proceed after the accident. A representative of the Ohio Cas­ ualty Insurance Ct/. was here Tues­ day, regarding an adjustment. A state law calls for a speed not exceeding 25 miles in the business dis­ trict of a tewn. and this speed even is supposed to be tempered with judgment depending on conditions. Star Theater Brings Gripping Film* “Frt»co Kid" And -Tb<- Man Who Broke The Bank At Monte Carlo” This Week End. Star Theater presented a fine week end "program of entertainment with "Thunder In the Night," a storm of excitement and a murder mystery, with Edmund Lowe as the debonair detective who solved the murder and saved his friends, Karen Morley and Paul Cavanaugh, Mr. and Mrs. in th© picture; and "Shipmates Forever," starring Dick Powell and Ruby Keel­ er, in which 2100 "middles." officers and men appear, a naval film with acenes taken at Annapolis and on the U. S. S. Pennsylvania, a gripping and an educational picture all in one. In which Dick Powell is transformed by degrees, from a high salaried crooner to a navy man. the third of his fam­ ily by the same name, to serve in the navy. This picture was well received with general favor. There were the usual good attendances. For this week end. Manager Hebert has booked another gripping film James Cagney in “Frisco Kid," the biggest of his five great hits in 1935, with 1000 in the cast, in which with a blast of dynamite he rocks the cradle of modem gangdom. An 8-block set is burned to the ground, Cagney rises from a shanghaied sailor to the barborous boss of Frisco’s Gold Coast of the 50's, and is toppled to his doom with a price on his head. Margaret Lindsay, Ricardo Cortez and Lila Damita are included in the cast. This is the lead film for Friday and Satur­ day. For Sunday and Monday, another, Ronald Colman, "The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo," with Joan Bennett, Colin Clive, Nigel Bruce. This is Colman's most fascin­ ating role, in which he takes a million to one chance at cards and wins, and. he takes a sure-thing chance on a woman—but love is not a gambler's game.

These ships were unarmored and for the most part mounted smooth bore muzzle loading cannon. On March 3. 1883. Congress authorized the construction of four modem cruisers. Difficulties were experienced in building these ships due to the lack of manufactur­ ing facilities for making armour and guns and due to the fact that during the past 20 years American inventors bad been forced to sell their naval patents to foreign countries as there was no market for them at home.

Unless money is made available be­ fore early summer, it will not only be necessary to keep several parks clos­ ed, but state property in the parks will depreciate to the point where ac­ tual reconstruction will be unneces­ sarily expensive, the commission de­ clared. “The state has opened these parks and has invited the public to enjoy them," Director Hoffmaster said. "The public expects, and has a right : to expect, a reasonable amount. of comfort and safety.

They have studied the difference between crime and tart and the pun­ ishment for each. Also they have found of what the different crimes consist, R3 larceny is taking into your possession what does not rightfully belong to you. And arson, the wilfull burning of any building. They know what a contract should contain? how to draw one up. and what hapens in case of breach of contract. As for example, Slater signed a contract transferring his farm to Hill upon payment of $5000. Two days later Hill tendered Slater with the money but Slater refuse^ to go through with the contract. Hill can sue Slater for breach of contract. The motto of the class is, investi­ gate before you invest. General Science. This week we are studying a unit on “The Body."

Mary Wright returned Tuesday morning to finish the school year here. We concluded Tuesday morning that there were not so many Irishmen in the junior high school, due to the fact that "Green” was not a donrf- ■ neering color.

In ordering a rate reduction, which percent of Michigan's electricity conpercent of Michigan’s electicity con­ sumers outside of Detroit, the Mich­ igan State Public Utilities commis­ sion said the reduction will lower the bills of consumers by ,$1,500,000 a year in 150 cities, village and rural areas served by the Consumers Pow­ er Co. It asserted the average resi­ dential consumer will find his bill 12 1-2 percent lower. William M. Smith, chairman of the commission, said he doubted lower rates would have been Imposed on any company­ in the United States of comparable size. The new schedules become effective in all billings on or after April 1. The commission estimated they, will reduce rates—in addition to the 12 1-2 per­ cent drop for householders—9 percent for commercial lighting, 6 to 13 per­ cent for secondary power, depending upon classification. 9 1-2 percent for school lighting. 5 per cent for street lighting.- and 3 1-2 percent for com­ bined poorer and lighting. The order calls for rates of slightly less than 6 cents per kilowatt hour the first step of residential con­ sumption. as compared with a present rate of 9 cents; 4 1-2 cents for the second step as compared with a pres­ ent rate of 6 cents, and 2 cents for the third step as compared with 3 cents now. Further reductions may follow, ac­ cording to Smith. "Objective rates" were set up toward which rates will work if consumption increases as an­ ticipated. They would cut the first step to 5 cents per kilowatt hour. 4 cents for the second, - cents for the third and a fourth would be added with rates from 1 to 1 1-2 cents for all consumption in excess of 200 kilo­ watt hours per month. f Smith declared the new rates may be lower than those charged by many municipal plants. He said the aver­ age electric rate for the nation is 5.13 cents per kilowatt hour, whereas the rates in the affected territory in Mich­ iganaveaged 3.93 cents and were fur­ ther reduced about three-fourths of a cent by the new order. In connection with the order the commission issued a statement say­ ing: "The reductions have been ordered after investigations and hearings, and in conformity with the policy of Gov­ ernor Fitzgerald that rate hearings should not be strung out for years, but should be concluded promptly as soon as the commission has acquired sufficient information.” The commission preceding the pres­ ent rate making body had ordered an audit and appraisal of all Consumers Power company property. Governor Fitzgerald requested the new commis­ sion last year to proceed as rapidly as possible toward rate reductions. He said he was opposed to prolonged audits and appraisals similar to that involved in the long pending Michigan Bell Telephone company rate case. Orders also were Issued reducing Consumers Power company gas rates in the Flint rural area (including Owosso) an estimated $36,741 a year; in Kalamazoo rural area, $9,845 a year, and in Gratiot county (includ­ ing Breckenridge. St. Louis, Alma and Ithaca), $23,361 a year. K. P.

X Why should we burden ourselves with a heavy increase in taxes to give one or two politicians nice fat jobs at taxpayers’ expense* It will cost Barry county at last $-10,000 of taxpayers’ money to estab­ lish a county-owned abstract of titles office! There is no demand for this, as a privately operated company is now rendering this service better than the county can do it . . . and at a low, reasonable rate. SEVENTY-EIGHT counties in Michigan are satisfied from experience that is costs the property- owners and taxpayers less under a privately operated abstract office such as Barry county now has. ONLY FIVE Michigan^counties own and operate 4heir own abstract office. One of these, Wayne, charges property owners TWICE AS HIGH A RATE for abstracts as Barry property' owners pay at present. Kent, another one of the five, loses money which the taxpayers must make up. As a taxpayer, you may never have occasion to need an abstract of title. Why then should you be heavily taxed for a service you may never use? Let’s defeat this move to boost taxes. Office Ballot and KEEP TAXES DOWN!

April 6th will be asked to decide by ballot whe­ ther they wish the county to engage in the Abstract business. Before casting thiir ballots in favor of it, they should give the matter very close corMderation and not form their de­ cisions from stories, rumors and re­ ports that, have no basis in fact. It is so easy to vote money for the people to pay. That’s one of the rea­ sons why this country is In the condi­ tion it finds itself in today. People vote for the expenditure of great sums without investigating whether it is wise or not, and their actions too often are influenced by baseless ru­ mors. It is estimated that it will cost the people of Barry county at least MO.­ OOO to put in a set of abstract books. Go to the Abstract office or the Reg­ ister of Deeds office, and anyone can see that 70 or 80 great large ledgers will have to be most carefully written and compared before the county can even make a start Do not get the Idea that this can be done without a heavy coat, because it cannot. There is another thing that must be taken into consideration. If Bar­ ry county spends $40,000 or more for a complete set of abstract books, that doesn't mean that the county will get all of the busines by any means. The present abstract office will remain and will doubtless get its share, which will cut down on the county's return. All of us are heavily burdened with taxes now. Why add $40,000 or more? It’s time to call a halt on added taxes. Pythian Sisters Met.

The Republican women of Michigan are to hold another one of their meet­ ings at the Durant Hotel in Flint on March 23, at 12:30. They will be ad­ dressed by Governor Frank D. Fitz­ gerald and Mrs. Henry R. Caraway, president of the Women's National Republican club of New York. Mrs. Caraway is a graduate of the Univer­ sity of Chicago and since that time has been interested in educational work of many types as'well as poli­ tics. At the present time she de­ votes her energy entirely to the task of educating politically the members of the club of which she is president In her spare time she edits a maga­ zine. “The Guidon,’’ and addresses many group meetings throughout the country. It is expected that there will be a very large attendance. • Hon. Vernon J. Brown, who is the publisher of the Ingham County News and , is also a member of tlie state legislature, has just returned from a trip through eleven states, largely in the south. When interviewed last weejc Mr. Brown declared that there were five major problems facing the next legislature. The first is the ques­ tion of the total cost of government The second is tbe revenue system. The third is the problem of state aid to schools. The fourth is official aid and legislation and the fifth is the entire banking problem. He earnestly believes that the total cost of government can probably be cut quite materially. He sa|d that despite tlie good record of the present administration there was still room for material reductions and changes in the system. The sales tax may possibly produce an actual surplus and if so there is a great deal of serious danger before the next legislature because, as he remarked, the surplus is always dan­ gerous. Were. It not for the State Aid the schools could not operate at the present time but there are a good many questions involved in the sys­ tem of state aid. Some schools are Commission Meets. receiving more money than Is actually The commission for the recodifica­ necessary and still others are finding tion of laws relating to financial in­ it difficult to operate, although these stitutions met in Lansing on the are in a decided minority.

Tlie Straits Bridge, A committee hoc been appointed to further the project of the bridge across the Straits of Mackinaw which Is known as the Mackinaw Straits Bridge association. The entire mat­ ter has received a great deal of at­ tention the last few days and is cer-l Uta to be Mill more ta the public eye' during the coming weeks. James H. [। Cissell is the consulting expert and he has estimated that the bridge would cost approximately $32,000,000. It is understood that the federal gov­ ernment has tentatively agreed to the proposition and would make an out­ right gift of $17,000,000 and the loon of about $14,000,000 by the revenue of the bridge. State Highway Com­ missioner Murray D. VanWagoner says that the department is ready to aid the project in all of the necessary steps in preparing it for submission to tlie Federal government. If approved the bridge would be ap­ proximately six miles in width and the deepest piling would be approxi­ mately 180 feet. It is quite possible that the bridge would be a “two deck structure" with the railroad using the lower level, in which case it would cost more; but, of course', the rail­ roads would bear their share of the The people in upper Michigan are greatly in favor of the project because they believe that it would facilitate tourist trade. If the traffic continued to Increase during the next few years as it has in the past five, the revenue would perfectly take care of the prob­ lem. — The Rate Decision. There have been many questions asked concerning the meaning of the new decision relative to the rates charged for light and power by the various electric power companies of Michigan. It is a bit difficult to an­ alyze because of the peculiar problem which faced both the companies and the Utilities Commission. At the present timee costs are based on th possible •fload." Tbe private house­ holder will pay in accordance with both tbe amount he uses and the amount he would use if all the lights were continually pulling. Thus it is perfectly possible for two homes us­ ing the same amount of current to pay widely different rates because the home with a larger amount of possioutlined at the preaent time the de­ cision would provide that everyone much as his neighbor would pay City Assessors Meet.

Melville B McPherson of Lowell who is chairman of the commission, hopes that they will be able to secure complete uni­ formity of operation.

BOYS’ LIFE HAD STEADY GROWTH IN ITS 25 YEARS Boys' Life, the Boy Scouts' month­ ly magazine, celebrates its 25th anni­ versary with its March issue. Since its start in 1911. it has grown and made conspicuous strides among America’s publications. In a few years Boys’ Life attained a reader in­ terest in excess of 100,000 subscribers per issue. In 1919 Boy' Life took another im­ portant step forward when tbe form and general make-up was brought to its present standard, Saturday Even­ ing Post size. The magazine made much progress over the next few years, gaining recognition and the interest of many new friends. To make the influence of the maga­ zine even more wide-spread through a much greater circulation, those res­ ponsible for the publication have ever been alert to all new opportunities. One outstanding event in this direc­ tion occurred when it was found pos­ sible. again through the generosity of friends, to reduce the price of the magazine to |1.00 a year, thus mak­ ing it available to a far larger num­ ber of boys. Thousands of boys were quick to realize this opportunity and take advantage of IL Boys’ Life has progressed and today it is recognized as the most popular magazine for boys in America, with a total circula­ tion of 300,000 paid subscribers and newsstand purchasers. Tbe number of readers of Boys' Life each month can be numbered close to a million. Boys' Life is enjoyed by boys in all foreign lands and reaches even the most remote parts of the globe such as Korea, Dutch Guiana. Tunisia in North Africa, the Belgian Congo, Burma, Syria.

Indications are, that after a period of rest, so far as this section of the state is concerned, the forger of vil­ lage checks of the 520.00 variety, is trying his hand again. # In this case, as “W. W. Coleman" of Olivet, be presented a forged check for 520.00. drawn on the village 'of Olivet, and cashed it at the Lansing State journal office in payment of a classified adv. in which a filling sta­ tion (also fictitious) was advertised for sale. When the check reached the Olivet State bank through the clearing house, Cashier Tyson notified officers and the state police went on the case. There were a number of answers to the advertisement and several letters • -re held at th Olivet postoffice for . W. Coleman. WEDDINGS. Eddy-Hartley. Announcement is made of the mar­ ge of Harold (Pat) Eddy, son of . -s. Lena Eddy, and Mias Edith narty. which was celebrated Sunday, .. .rch 15, at Flint, Mich. Mr. Eddy, who has been visiting Michigan fol­ lowing his four years of sendee in the U.

Bogart has leased. the former UKMMndent OU Co. tanks preparatory to taking over a gas distribution for Barry and Eaton counties about April 1, and will be moving to Nashville. Nashville is to have a new restau­ rant at an old location. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Barnaby have rented the Gribbin store just vacated by Will Mater and will open a restaurant there after cleaning .redecorating and Lntallatlon of some new equipment, including booths. Charles Dahlhouser has been redec­ orating the interior of the Kleinhans store which he occupies with his gaits’ clothing business. Mr. and Mrs. Curtis. Wash are buy­ ing the Ernest Oflley residence prop­ erty on State street, where Mrs. Wash, a graduate nurse, will operate a 2-bed hospital on the first floor, with living quarters for the Wash family on the second floor. They are moving this week from Francis street. The hospi­ tal will probably be called the Nash­ ville Hospital. An Important event of the week at the confectionery store of Charles Diamante Is the Installation of the new Taylor Freezer, electrically oper­ ated, which arrived from Wisconsin, and by installation of which Mr. Dia­ mante will be able to manufacture his own ice cream, five gallons in 5 or 6 minutes, or ice cream-while-youwiaL It is being installed in the store proper and the various members of the family will doubtless take a hand in learning its mechanism and the art of preparing the mix for it One of the very Interesting items regarding business in Nashville is the word received by E. B. Greenfield early in the week from his Division Freight Agent, I. Greenbaum, that he had succeeded in having Nashville In­ cluded in the new spring innovation of the Michigan Central railroad for a store and factory door pick-up freight service. His earliest advice did not give the date of the start of this ser­ vice; this would depend upon some preliminary arrangements. Under this plan the Michigan Central, when noti­ fied that a shipment is to be made by freight, will send a truck for it. and when freight arrives for a store or factory it will be delivered to the door, all of which is expected to help the freight business of the Michigan Central, which picked up so much this winter. Outgoing shipments in car load lots, sent out and in immediate prospect, are cars of beans and grain for the Nashville Co-Operative elevator, and a car of logs, while Chester Smith is beginning to haul in some of his 2,000 bushel onion crop for shipping with a more promising market Petitions were circulated among the Nashville manufacturers and business men asking for the pick-up service of Die Michigan Central for outgoing and incoming freight. Breaks in the water mains on the south side have been occupying at­ tention last week and this, while for the new water project, the immediate work is the putting in of the floor in the pump house.

SMELT RUNS DUE FOR LATER DATE THAN USUAL Due to the effects of the extraor­ dinarily severe winter, the spring smelt runs in northern Michigan may come a little later than usual this year, state fisheries authorities be­ lieve. It is thought that the smelt are in­ fluenced by water temperatures to some extent in starting their spawn­ ing runs upstream and a delayed break-up in ice conditions might af­ fect these temperatures. Smelt runs have occurred as late as April In 1923 a sub-zero cold wavs on April 1 delayed the smelt rim at Beulah until mid-month. EATON CO.

VOTING “YES” ON THE ABSTRACT BALLOT IS LIKE SIGNING A BLANK CHECK ❖❖❖❖❖❖♦ BARRY CO. VOTERS Why Burden Ourselves With More Taxes? VOTE “NO” ON ABSTRACT OFFICE BALLOT We Can Save $40,000 in Needless County Expenses Our taxes are Why should we spend $40,000 or more to create a county abstract office and give one or two politicians nice, fat jobs? We now have a privately operated abstract office giving good senice and charging no more than the county would have to charge to break even. To duplicate this service would be a needless extravagance and a waste of taxpayers' money. All but 5 out of 83 counties in Michigan have privately operated abstract offiices, because experience has proved that property owners can get better service at less cost from a privat abstract office. In Wayn, a county-owned abstract office, the rates charged are twice as high as the rates in Barry county now charged by a private com­ pany. The average man buys an abstract but once or twice in his life. Why saddle yourself with a higher tax rate for a senice you may never use? Z VOTE “NO” ON THE ABSTRACT OFFICE BALLOT Bad save yourself and Barry county money. Urge your triends to do the same. This is no year to authorize a wwta waste of county money and an unwarranted increase in taxes. BE SURE TO VOTE MONDAY, APRIL 6!

Mr. and Mrs. John Ackett for more than 40 years well known residents of Nashville, and now residing near Clarksville, observed their golden wedding anniversary in an unusual manner, the occasion being the mar­ riage of their grandson. Lewis Bailey, and Miss Iola Stine, which took place in their home at 8 o'clock Wednesday evening of last week. The bridegroom is the son of Mrs. Ray Nye of 222 North Church, Hast­ ings, and Howard A. Bailey of Battle Creek, 'and the bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Stine of Hastings, •whose 21st wedding anniversary oc­ curred on Tuesday of this week. About 40 relatives and friends were present to witness the ring ceremony which was performed by the Rev. C. Severance of Hastings, the grandpar­ ents attending the bridal couple. The bride wore a gown of rust, crepe with a shoulder bouquet of talisman roses and carried a bouquet of iris, sweet­ peas and rosebuds. Mrs. Ackett wore a gown of tsfn crepe and a shoulder bouquet of golden hued flowers in keeping with her 50th anniversary. Both couples received many lovely gifts. Following congratulations, refresh­ ments were served and the remainder of the time occupied in visiting. The newlyweds as yet have not decided upon their residence. Guests were present from Battle Creek, Hastings and Nashville. Savings in the family food bl!! of as much as $700 cor. be made through careful cultivation of a small home garden plot less than one-half an acre In area, according to H. L. Seaton, in­ structor in veegtable gardening, hor­ ticulture department, Michigan State .-olPge. East Lansing. Fresh vegetables during the grow­ ing season and sufficient for canning and storing for a family of five have been successfully raised by many Michigan families in recent years, be says. Home gardens can be planted from an initial investment of $15 for seeds. In some instances, a rmali ad­ ditional sum for fertilizer is neces­ sary. "Gardens should be planned to meet dietetic needs.” he says. "Almost all of the 2600 pounds of vegetables prescribed by nutrition experts as the annual need of a family of five can be raised on well-tended plots of from one-quarter to one-half acre.” Types of vegetables recommended are green or leafy vegetables, those in which fruit or seeds are eaten, and root and bulb crops. Equal amounts of each type should be planted to guarantee surpluses for canning and storing. Interest in home gardens as well as in the "thrift garden" movement spon­ sored in many Michigan cities is in­ creasing. Mr. Seaton will begin a series of weekly broadcasts at 1:30 p. m.

It has been said that the number of friends you have depends al­ most wholly upon you; for friend­ ship is like many other precious possessions in that it does not thrive on neglect. Most expressions of friendship, in this modem age, involve the use of the telephone. Direct, per­ sonal, inexpensive, it has come to l>e die recognized means of arranging nearly all informal social gatherings. It has greatly simplified the rqle-of the hostess, relieving her of bothersome complications once inseparable from entertaining. By telephone the woman of today can obtain acceptances or regrets without delay; she can make a last-minute addition to her guests, can quickly sum­ mon a fourth for bridge, ff J Modern telephone service is a special boon to those who have been parted by distance. It gives them, despite their separation, the opportunity for “voice reunions” — for a kind of personal contact which only the telephone can pro­ vide. Over it they can send greet­ ings of the season, condolences, congratulations — all the various remembrances that arise from genuine friendship — and prove that absence need not necessarily mean forgetfulness. Quick, dependable, the tele­ phone service provided by this Company has won a definite part in the social life of die people of Michigan, and daily fulfills an important function in the many . occasions which both pro­ mote and preserve the kB tr#a»ure of friendship.

Horne Movie» Feat uro*. ■ Betty in Movkland," an amateur Rewire production originally signed up by Laurel cjiapte, O. ,1L S_ n.r tberkt iken over by the Na^hvilla Fire Department, was very creditably pre­ sented Thursday and Friday evening? at the Masonic Temple. This production is the story of a local girl who goes to Hollywood and mal-.es good in pictures at the Piedmen; studios.

Bennett was the large movie producer, Sidney Rabinwitz, president of Piedmont Pictures, whose office was the setting for both acts. .

Alice Greenfield was Hazel Wing, secretary to the producer, while Bert Arnold, a real actor, and Claris Greenfield took the parts of the world’s greatest in­ vestigators. Fitzpatrick and Ginsberg. Noel Conrad the famous actor who discovered Betty Rand and later won her for his wife was excellently play­ ed by “Betty’s" real husband. Voyle Varney. Arthur Trent, the director, was played by William Shupp. Cur­ tis Wash had the role of Harold Reg­ inald Thistlewalte, Writer: Roger Sackett was Kildorff, the monster; and Mrs. Pauline Lykins was Katrinka Swanson, a friend of Conrad. The play was very interesting and made more colorful by the addition of 16 high school girls in costume danc­ es and specialties, with Jack Smith as master of ceremonies. Patty Adell Mater gave tap dances; Frank Daw­ son, guitar and song numbers; Mar­ quita Shupp. Genevieve Biggs and Joyce Rothaar, trio numbers. And the uhusual feature of nome town moving pictures added to the pro­ gram. which was given in full only the last night Alfreds Mapes was the director, Mra.

THE PORTER KINNES RETURN FROM COAST Mr. and Mra. Porter Kinne return­ ed home from their trip to California on Friday afternoon, and report a very fine trip, with many scenes and views never witnessed by them be­ fore. Some of the highlights of the trip were: five days of rain, with pleasant weather the rest of the time, the thermometer going up to 86 de­ grees several times. They were in the Ralph Walker (a former Belle­ vue merchant) Stores, both at Loa Ange’es and Long Beach; were in the "Wee Kirk of the Heather; ” saw at least 40 airplanes at one time in the air; experienced a couple of earth­ quakes, light ones; went through 23 tunnels on one of their outside trips; were in the largest Italian vineyard in the world; drove over Suicide bridge, from which it is known that 76 people have committed suicide; one afternoon watched large vessels being loaded with lumber, and saw more lumber in that half day than they had seen in all their lives. Cal­ ls lillies and other flowefle were in bloom all around their apartment, and on the way home they counted 53 stacks of hay in one field. Miss Blanche McMon* called on them; also George Dean and sister Effa were callers; and they took dinner with Miss McMore.

Picture a former Nashville girl at a third story window on high hill in Springfield. Maas., watching the Con­ necticut river .the principal flood riv­ er of New England, rise faster and faster floding the lower part of the city and carrying an ever increasing amount of debris, homes, etc., on its crest, with her husband safe, but un­ able to reach home because of the floods. This was the experience of Dorothy Powers Masselink. And was she glad to hear the voice of her father, S. E. Powers, coming by long distance phone to her Friday night! She saw a railway bridge, upon which cars of coal were placed in an effort to hold it In place when bridges and dams along the Connecticut were going out, one after another, and saw the water creep up and up till all she could see was the coal in the cars, and then not knowing how much longer the waters were to continue rising. But the waters receded 1 1-2 feet Friday; the flood peak was reached Thursday night for that section. Down town stores were closed, she wrote. There were calls for blankets and cots for the flood sufferers, and she made ready three blankets and a cot, which were called for at 2 o'clock In the morning. Mr. Masselink, away on a business trip, had the experience of an aerial view of Hartford. Conn., the worst flooded section along the Connecticut, where thousands of acres were under water. He was not caught in a flood­ ed area but was unable to reach home when he planned, because of swollen rivers and flooded highways. These experiences will be long remembered by them.

The 8-penny tax last year amounted to $6,301,­ 385.59 and went, by state constituti mal order, directly Into the primary school fund, of which the railroad to­ tal made up 40.7 per cent. "Everyman's Almanac.” a 40-page booklet, gives the first outline ever printed of the magnitude and com­ mercial and economic relationship be­ tween the state and its railroads. There are 37 railroad lines in Mich­ igan. Normally they employ 45,000 men earning $69,000,000, according to the almanac, and their total length, 7819 miles, is greater than the rail­ road mileage of any one of 11 lead­ ing foreign countries. The almanac also contains extensive national rail­ road facts and figures and numerous summaries for business, household and sports use. Surprising domestic uses for farm stuffs are being discovered almost daily, Dr. L. E. Kirk, Canadian agrostologist. revealed at East Lansing. According to the Dominion expert on grasses, freak young grass has 500 times as many vitamins and is just as tasty as fresh young lettuce, and turnip juice is more healthful than either orange or tomato juice, but has an objectionable odor.

Colonel Angus McLean, member of the Detroit Board of Education, one of the leading members of the medi­ cal profession In Michigan, and com­ mander of a medical unit of Che U. S. army that served in France during the World war. has been appointed Michigan chairman oi arrangements for the observance of Army Day, on Monday, April 6, by Col. E. M. Stan­ nard, Detroit, chairman of the Coun­ cil of National Defense. At the request of Colonel McLean, Governor Frank D .Fitzgerald has is­ sued a proclamation, urging the ap­ propriate observance of the day throughout the state, and it is antici­ pated that the Michigan mayors will follow with like proclamations. Army Day, which appropriately falls upon the anniversary of the en­ trance of the U. S. into the World war In an endeavor to bring to a conclu­ sion the conflict that was to end all wars. Is set aside for two particular purposes: To honor members of the U. S. armies who have served their country both in war and in peace, and to bring to the attention of all Amer­ icans the necessity for maintaining an adequate national defense in order to keep their country out of all future wars. “Lasting peace is our desire,’’ Col­ onel McLean stated In a preliminary meeting of hls general committee at Detroit. "We believe that only by showing a proper spirit of loyalty, and a determination not to permit aggression from without or from within, can we achieve that aim. We must have an adequate national de­ fense, backed by a patriotic interest in the national welfare on the part of the whole American people. We recog­ nize the part that our brave armies have had in maintaining peace, in re­ pelling Invaders, In protecting Amer­ icans at home and abroad, and in es­ tablishing and maintaining through­ out the w&rld a respect for the U. S., Its institutions and its ideals. They cannot continue to serve us adequate­ ly unless we equip them adequately, trai| them and otherwise give them our full backing. The observance of Army Day, further, will honor the men and women who have served with and in our armies, and particularly to those who have gone to the national defense from our own localities and our own state.” The American Legion. Veterans of Foreign Wars. Spanish War Veterans. Disabled Veterans, Michigan National Guard. Michigan Naval Reserve. D. A. R„ and other veteran, civilian, pat­ riotic, and club organizations, are asked by Col. McLean to get behind the plans for the observance of the day and to take part in it. Through­ out the state, the newspapers, radio, theatres, merchants, industrial con­ cerns. schools, and state, county and city officials, are lending their aid. Local committees are being named in practically every community, headed by members of the various veteran organizations as chairmen. The chairmen will receive their appoint­ ments this week from Col. McLean, through, the department headquarters of their veteran organizations. Governor Fitzgerald’s Army Day proclamation follows: “The armed forces of this country command the loyalty and support of the people because they are recogniz­ ed primarily as agencies of national defense, not as Instruments of ag­ gression. We hold the U. S. army in great pride, not alone for its achieve­ ments on the field of battle, but for the power it may exert in keeping our country at peace with the nations of the world. •These words were written by Aus­ tin Blair, Michigan's great war gov­ ernor: “ The true glory of the Republic must consist not only in the benefic­ ence and freedom of our Institutions, but also in our ability and courage to defend and protect them.’ "It is in keeping with this spirit that the nation maintains its army at a high standard of efficiency, and it is in keeping with this spirit that, by virtue of my office as Governor, I hereby designate as Army Day, Mon­ day, April 6, the ninteenth anniver­ sary of our country’s entry into the World war. In conformity to a cus­ tom prevailing throughout the na­ tion. I would request that the day be observed throughout the Common­ wealth. by the display of the national flag and by such other demonstrations as may seem appropriate." -------------\TnSWS) MMKL MEETING NAZARENE DISTRICT PASTORS Rev.

Creamery Ships Car Load Of Butter V ------ Literary Day of the Nashville Wo­ man’s Literary club, held on Wednes­ day afternoon of last week, opened with a paper by Mrs. Fred Elder and’ read by Mrs. Floyd Everts. The sub­ ject of the paper was, "Should Amer­ ican Opera Aspirants Study Abroad." Quoting Madam Lehman, Mrs. Elder said. “The trouble with American girls is they are always in a hurry. They are not content to sit down quietly and study till they have devel­ oped themselves into something be­ fore they even think of coming to Europe. They think if they can only come here and sing for an artist, that fact alone will give them prestige in America. "We often hear slighting things said of the quality of American voic­ es. especially the speaking voice," Mrs. Elder went on to say. "They are frequently compared to the beauty of European voices to the disparage­ ment of those of our own country, but Madame Easton says. ‘There are quantities of girls in America, with good voices, good looks, and a love for music’.’’ Roll call, made by citing world per­ sonalities, the members revealed a rather wide range of likes. The greatest number expressed a desire to meet Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt and Amelia Earhart Putnam. . Some of the other celebrities mentioned were: Anne Lindberg, Stalin, Queen Marie of Roumania, ex-President Hoover, Major Bowes. Helen Keller, and Mus­ solini. Mrs. William Gibson gave an inter­ esting paper on "Outstanding Women Magazine Writers." Phyllis Bottome, Mrs. Martin Johnson, wife of the big game hunter, Honore Wilson Morrow. Pearl Buck, Cora Harris. Queen Ma­ rie of Roumania, Margaret Songster, Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt. Fannie Hurst and- Kathleen Norris were among those mentioned. She said Kathleen Norris is called the "Serial Queen.” She makes a salary of $300,000 per year, and is able to write any time and at any place. "Writers rarely es­ cape portraying themselves," Mrs. Gibson said. “An honest man writes an honest book." Mrs. E. E. Hickman's paper. "Psy­ chology of Everyday Life,” was most unusual. She'said her aim was to present something helpful in self an­ alysis. teaching children or in dealing sympathetically with one's fellows. The following are some of the high lights in her talk: "Men do not keep on accumulating because they want the millions, but rather the joy of getting the millions. It is the crea­ tive thought that causes the joy. We create evils by thinking evil. We create good by simply thinking good. All thought is constructive. "It is increasingly difficult to main­ tain a normal healthy mental life, we are compelled to realize how precar­ ious and insecure is the possibility of mental peace—and how quickly men­ tal health- can b6 destroyed. The chief causes of shattered mental health are worry, fear and a growing loss of self-confidence. Hurry-will not wait for thought—hurry is impelled by fear. Fear disorganizes, destroys balance. "Human behavior is at its best when it meets emergencies. We are continually advertising ourselves whe­ ther intentionally or not You can't live, breathe, work and play without influencing the people all around you. What you give out comes back to you multiplied—it is the unconscious influ­ ence that docs the work. 'What you are thunders so I can not hear what you say.’ "It is easier to allow our emotions to move us than to restrain our emo­ tions and inquire where we want to go. Habits are not formed by utter­ ing precepts, nor a bad habit broken by preachments. Self preservation •d self control is the difference be­ tween all gorillas and some men. “Tact is the one key of success in life. Discipline control should be kept on positive and constructive ba­ sis, looking toward permanent results in the total life span." In closing Mrs. Hickman told of the Thought Control Clinic as outlined in an arti­ cle by W’inifred Rhoades in the Read­ ers Digest Mrs. Herbert Wotring acted as hostess for the afternoon. At the business meeting preceding the pro­ gram, Mrs. L. G. Cole was voted a member of the club.

In Bellevue on Sunday was dedicated the new $10,000 home of Cal­ vary Pentecostal Tabernacle, com­ pleted and fully paid for by the mem­ bers, about 60 in number, without a • single solicitation of aid from outside sources, a monument to the untiring efforts of Rev. B. L. Bresson, who came from Battle Creek first as a mis­ sionary in 1929 to conduct street meetings.

Charging “enormous" AAA pay­ ments to some far­ mers. Senator Vandenberg asked the Senate to request from Secy. Wallace a report on all crop control contracts which paid more than $10,000 a year. “It seems to me," he said, in pre­ senting a resolution requiring the re­ port, "this information is highly per­ tinent for study in connection with the new tax bill which must include $500,000,000 of new taxes to pay new benefits under the new law, as well as $250,000,000 to pay commitments re­ maining over from the old law.” He emphasized he was not questioning the "integrity" of the disbursements. “I understand," he continued, ’ the average corn-bog benefit payment in Iowa is under $400. But I know, for example, about one corn-hog contract in another state where the beneficiary was paid $219,825 in two years for not raising 14,587 hogs on 445 acres. Again, I uhderstand the average cot­ ton contract throughout the south is under $1,500, but I know, for exam­ ple about one coicon contract which paid $168,000 for not planting 7,000 acres. Again I understand the aver­ age wheat contract in Kansas runs in the neighborhood of $800. But I know, for example, of one such con­ tract—although in this instance I know neither the state nor the acre­ age—which produced 65 checks for a total of $78,638 in two years." At Vandenberg's request, the resolution was referred to the agriculture com­ mittee. He has also put forward a plan that would mean virtual aboli­ tion of the WPA by proposing that $1,500,000,000 relief appropriation asked recently by Pres. Roosevelt be distributed among the states oh a ba­ sis of population and need, under which plan the federal government would give the states sufficient money to provide subsistence for the desti­ tute as a direct dole or add money and finance works project. Senator Vandenberg recently succeeded in blocking an appropriation to continue _he WPA-started Florida ship canal.

In these words the Scottish poet, Robert Bums, ex­ presses the fallibility of human plan­ ning. And yet our young people are admonished constantly to plan their careers carefully and to work ear­ nestly toward the consummation of their human plans. On leaving school these young people often seek the ad­ vice of those who are older than them­ selves, though often those whom they seek are in no way fitted to give them right counsel How, then, shall one be protected from following mistaken advice? This is a question one has a right to ask. Those who have been reared in homes where the Bible is loved and constantly studied are more likely than others to be led aright in the selection of a career, for the Book of books is filled with the wise counsel of those who looked to God .to show them the way. "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not un­ to thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths." (Proverbs 3:­ 5-6). No better advice can be given today than that contained in these verses from Proverbs. Note that not only are we to “trust in the Lord," but we must also acknowledge Him at all times and under all circumstances. And just what does it mean to “ac­ knowledge Dim"? Docs it not mean always to seek His guidance through prayer, while acknowledging His au­ thority? In the Christian Science textbook. "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," Mary Baker Eddy has given us a "key” which will help us to interpret aright many Biblical pas­ sages. On page 254 of this book we read, “When we wait patiently on God and seek Truth righteously. He di­ rects our path.” Patience has been defined as the persistent expectancy of good. So one might paraphrase this sentence as follows: When we wait on God. persistently expecting only good, and seeking through pray­ er to know His will, He unfolds to us each human footstep to be taken. How comforting and helpful It is to know that we may have that right guidance wherever we are! No mat­ ter where we may be, or how difficult tiie circumstances in which we may be placed we have only to seek God’s direction and then obediently take the human footsteps that unfold to us in answer to our prayer. It is also helpful to remember that we do not need to know today the human foot­ steps which may be required of us to­ morrow. But, one says, my affairs are so un­ important; surely God does not care for such trivial things as my prob­ lems! Here we may learn a useful leason from our experience in using nuiibere. We do not feel that the law of mathematics is too vast to give the right answer to our smallest cal­ culation. as often as we need to use it A million people may need to use the smallest arithmetical truth, such as "one anu one is two.” many times ca*h day; yet none of them doubt that each one will attain the right re­ sult in making the calculation. In the same way God, divine Mind, be ing infinite, stands ready to direct all in the working out of even the small­ est detail of their daily experiences. History furnishes many exampleof those who have sought God's guid- j ance and have thus brought blessings to individuals and nations under try­ ing circumstances. During the dark days of the Civil war, Abraham Lin­ coln often spent the night in prayer for divine guidance, and in the morn­ ing would make a decision which was Barry and fiiBcWi Eaton Co.

On page 3 of “Pulpit and Press’ Mrs. Eddy gives us this inspiring state­ ment: "Know, then, that you possess sovereign power to think and act rightly, and that nothing can dispos­ sess you of this heritage and trespass on Love. If you maintain this posi­ tion who or what con cause you to sin or suffer?" Each one, then, un­ der God's infinite direction, has the sovereign power to follow’ His lead­ ings and hence to make right deci­ sions in every case.

Proofs of the senior pictures have been returned to the Camp Publishing company of Ypsilanti. Copy for the Invitations was forwarded to the Herff-Jones company recently. Dr. Voelker, former Superintendent of. Public Instruction, now connected with the Davenport-McLachlan Insti­ tute of Grand Rapids, and C, C. Won­ ders. also of the Institute, visited the Nashville high school Wednesday morning, March 25. Dr. Voelker gave an educational talk to the seniors on the subject of “Vocational Guidance.” Clarence L, Burgderfer, lecturer, impersonator, humorist and mimic, appeared before the assembly Friday afternoon at 3:15. He emphasized the great debt we owe our parents and declared that this debt- can best be paid with our love and thoughtfulnes« for our parents while they are still with us. Carrie Jacobs Bond and Madame Schumann.Heink were cited as examples of women whose accom­ plishments should be an inspiration to all. Later in the program Mr. Burg­ derfer demonstrated his remarkable power as a mimic. Among the many familiar .-ounds imitated were those of a hog. cat, sheep, rooster, chicken, the sound of meat cutting, and the old saw mill. The seniors will sponsor a carnival or amateur night program in the near future. Watch for the announce­ ment. 350,000 Americans are marked (c.r death by heart disease in 1936. This country's annual crime bill is $15,­ 000,000,000. These are two startling facts brought out in the study the so­ ciology class is making of crime and the criminal and the new sociological adjustments in our changing America. Some of the conclusions drawn from this study are. speed and noise must be decreased; more emphasis must be placed on the proper training of the children and youth of today, (a large percentage of crimes are committed by young people below the age of 20). There is also a decided need of read­ justment in the changing home life to meet the problems of the modem age.

H. Jefferson, instructor in agricultural engineering at Michigan State college. East Lansing. “The best time to clean defective stoves and chimneys is in the spring after heating systems are no longer used, but most farmer pay no atten­ tion to defective flues until it is too late." he says. Defective pipes and flues are the most important single cause of fires where the cause is known. Defects should be repaired carefully, he says. “Chimneys disintegrate most quick­ ly at the top owing to the combina­ tion of weather and hot gases," Mr. Jefferson states. "Such a condition is frequently found in old chimneys well below the roof. "A crack in the chimney may be lo­ cated by building a smudge fire and covering the chimney top with a wet board or sack. Cracks are found by the escaping smoke. Minor cracks can be filled with good cement mortar but if there are many cracks or if the’ bricks are eaten away, reconstruction of the entire chimney is advisable." Other causes of farm fires are sparks on combustible roofs, careless use of matche, careless storage of gasoline and kerosene, defective heat­ ing equipment, faulty wiring and im­ proper use of electric appliances, lighting, and spontaneous ignition of hay and other products.

Airview of Downtown Pittsburgh at Height of Hood—International News Photo, Courtesy Detroit Times Reinforcements from Michigan Flood waters rage . . . dams break ... water stands ten feet deep in the business section of a great city. Local telephone circuits are flooded and temporarily damaged. The Bell System mobilizes. From neigh­ boring companies — including Michigan—come squads of trained and tested telephone men. The Bell expeditionary forces land—and in a short time they are able to echo that famed message of the Marines: **The situation is well in band.** . Only one thing made this pos­ sible. That is the fact that Bell System practices and equipment are standard the country over. Con­ sequently. when the Bell System mobilizes in an emergency, it is not necessary for reinforcements from other companies to ask: "What kind of equipment is it?” They, merely say: "Where is it?” and go quietly and efficiently to work on familiar ground. This is true in Pittsburgh today where the Michigan Bell Telephone Company is contributing part of the emergency force. It was true in Michigan—in 1922 and 1929 — when reinforcements from other Bell System companies came here to aid in the work of restoring communications temporarily de­ stroyed by the sleet storms of those years. Without a nation-wide force of systematically trained men, with­ out standard equipment in every associated company, some of the things which Bell men have accom­ plished swiftly as part of their routine duties would have caused confusion and endless delay. Whenever you lift a Bell Telephone recriver, tremendous resources in men, organization and equipment are at your command. And there are times when it is impossible to measure the value of telephone service except in terms of life and flvafh. MICHIGAN BELL TELEPHONE CO �THU NABHVILLK NKWB THURSDAY, APRIL t, 1936 .

Lansing Comment. By T. E. Johnson. WATCH OUT TAXPAYERS! Defeat This Move to Add $40,000 To Our Already Heavy Taxes •. • Vote “NO” on This ABSTRACT OFFICE Ballot at the Polls, Next Mon., April 6 This is simply a move to get one or two politicians nice fat jobs at taxpayers’ expense. There is no demand for a county-owned abstract of title office. We have an efficient privately-operated office giv­ ing better service and at as low a rate as the county could do it. Shall the County of Barry Own and Operate an Ab­ stract Office and the Books, Indexes, Etc., necessary for conducting of such Abstract Office? 78 counties in Michigan have private abstract offices just as Barry. Only 5 counties have county-owned of­ fices. In some of these the rates are higher than in Barry, in others they are losing money for the taxpayers. Why change? Why add another $40,000 to our high taxes? You may never have occasion to need an abstract. Why should you pay for a service you may never use? THE REDUCTION [X] NO LEAGUE �I MR. AND MRS.

The Foundation will pay tuition, transportation to and from St. Louis, room and board. A special train may be chartered for the trip. This will be tjie largest group of physicians ever offered a course by the Foundation, and will be the first offered to Battle Creek men. The choice of Washington university makes the course particularly valua­ ble because of the high rating given this university in medical circles. The March 2 issue of Time magazine lists eight “best” scientific medical schools in the country and Washington uni­ versity in St Louis is among the ejght The course will be under the super­ vision of Dr. McKim Marriott, who is In charge of the department of ped­ iatrics at the university. It will be of a practical nature with the physi­ cians meeting daily from 9 a. m. to 5 p. m.

Subjects covered will include prac­ tical infant feeding, preventing ped­ iatrics. behavior problems, conduct of practice, infectious diseases, the blood, heart diseases, allergic diseases (hay fever and asthma), and included will be many lectures. Clinical conferences will be an im­ portant feature of the course with demonstration of cases, discussions of diagnosis and treatment, and demon­ strations of therapeutic procedure. Beginning with a tour of the upper peninsula that will start with the first week of April, a Conservation education exhibit will be routed to in­ clude eventually practically every town in Michigan, the Department of Conservation announced. The exhibit is one of the most com­ prehensive and educational . ever de­ signed and is primarily for the pur­ pose of interesting school children in conservation and instructing them in the identification of wildlife and various conservation problems. Included are specimens of practi­ cally every fish found in Michigan waters; all game birds, waterfowl and predatory birds; murals, depict­ ing various phases of conservation; specimens of various fur-bearing ani­ mals; types of guns and traps used in the state and models of forest-fire de­ tection and fighting equipment With the exhibit will be continuous showings of Department of Conserva­ tion motion pictures. In most instances the exhibit will be housed in school buildings for the convenience of school children during the day hours. It will be open to the public each evening. MICHIGAN FARMERS TOLD NEW FARM RELIEF PLANS Michigan farmers have been in­ formed that the new farm relief law will pay them an average of 311 an acre—within certain bounds—for in­ creasing the acreage planted to soil conserving crops. The national aver­ age is 310 an acre. Just how many millions of dollars the soil conservation act will poud in­ to Michigan, however, was a question the experts could not answer at a meeting of 100 county committee members gathered at East I-anslng from every county of the lower pen­ insula. R. J. Baldwin, who was Michigan's AAA administrator under the old farm relief set-up, said the total prob­ ably would be as large as the 38.­ 880.000 that AAA paid, and speculat­ ed that it might be much higher be­ cause more farmers will be eligible to participate. Virtually every major Michigan crop is covered in the new plan, while com. hog and wheat grow­ ers received all the benefits under AAA. W. O. Fraser, assistant regional di­ rector under the soil conservation act. and Ralph Moyer, field representative, told the committee members who at­ tended an all-day school of instruction at East Lansing that the 311 an acre benefits would be for the retirement of acreage now devoted to the growth of grain, potatoes, commercial truck crops, canning crops, arid annual grasses and annual legumes that are grown to harvest for feed and seed purposes. Payments will not be made on more than 15 per cent of the base acreage of any farm that is retired from these soil depleting crops and planted to soil conserving crops. Base acreage is the normal acreage planted to crops MARBLE TOURNAMENT A WPA RECREATION that destroy soil fertility.

Where plowing before that date is impossible, the com stalks should be gathered in a pile and burned, he advises. fered by Christian Science is not vi­ carious; it calls for the individual ac­ ceptance and understanding of Truth, and for individual obedience to the de­ mands of Truth. In Science and Health (pp. 28, 29) Mrs. Eddy writes. "There is too much animal courage in society and not sufficient moral cour­ age. Christians must take up arms against error at home and abroad. They must grapple with Bin in them­ selves and in others, and continue this warfare until they have finished their course. If they keep the faith, they will have the crown of rejoicing.” In this Christian endeavor we have the assurance that God is working in us, and that we are supported and em­ powered by divine law. The writer of the epistle to the He­ brews offers encouragement when, in reminding us of God’s presence and protection, he writes (Hebrews 13­ 5-6): "For he hath said, I will never leave thee^ nor forsake thee. So that we may/boldly say. The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.” Through the stu­ dy and applications of the teachings of Christian Science the assurance is gained that God, good, is ever at hand; that divine Mind is the all­ knowing and all-controlling intelli­ gence of spiritual man and the real universe. This understanding of spiritual reality is our helper and healer; it gives us comfort and confi­ dence; it Is an unerring and unfailing guide and governor In all our human affairs. Thus is Christian courage Science Monitor. HEBER FOSTER Phone 89-Fl4. NaahvUle HORACE POWERS Lawyer. Office on Main St, over Greene’s Tai­ lor Shop.

Bottle Of Hampton Rood*. March 6, 1962. A Rev olution In Naval Warfare. In 1855 France had successfully employed four Ironclad floating bat­ teries tn the Chimean War and by 1860 both Englund and France had built a few ironclad steam frigates. The Confederate States were unable to buy an ironciod ship and so the Norfolk Navy Yard reconditioned the captured "Ionian ship “Merrimac, put­ ting a heavy iron ram on her bow and converting her above water body into an iron fort with sloping sides made of two layers of rolled iron bars. Hearing of the construction of the Merrimac, the northern states com­ menced building an ironclad too. On March 8. 1862, the Merrimac under Captain Franklin Buchanan, left Nor­ folk and proceeded to attack the Un­ ion’s wooden ships at Hampton Roads. Uninjured by the heavy fire from Un­ ion ships and shore batteries, the Merrimac rammed the Cumberland which was anchored under the pro­ tection of the batteries at Newport News Point. The Cumberland filled rapidly with water and sank with guns firing and colors flying. Then, accompanied by two gunboats, the Merrimac attacked .the Congress. In attempting to escape, the Congress went aground and was forced to sur­ render after all guns had been put out of commission. Buchanan destroyed the Congress with red hot shots, and started to attack the other Union ships, but the falling tide forced him to retire and proceed to Norfolk. The Union ships had 250 men killed in this battle and the Confederates lost only 21 killed and wounded. On the Mer­ rimac only two men were killed and the ship was uninjured. Captain Bu­ chanan was wounded by a murket bill. Enlistments For March. The U. 8. Navy Recruiting station at Detroit will enlist fifty young men in the navy from the state of Mich­ igan during the month of March. These men will all be between the ages of 17 and 25 and must have at­ tended high school, preferably grad­ uates. They will all be sent to Great Lakes. Ill., for their preliminary training. Chaumont Enroute To Far East. The U. 8. navy transport Chaumom. is now enroute to Manila, P. L, from San Francisco, via Honolulu and Guam. Discharges. The U. S. navy lists seven kinds of discharges from its service. There are: Honorable, Ordinary, Special Or­ der, Inaptitude, Undesirable, Bad Conduct, and Dishonorable. Telephone Service. All large ships in the navy have an interior telephone service that goes to all parts of the ship. This system is very modem and all are dial phones. Time Saving. All the latest ships in the navy have a loud speaker system that reaches every part of the ship. When anyone on board is wanted the word is passed over the system and the party wanted hears it This system does away with the old time system of running all over the ship to find anyone. ■ U. 8. 8. Tucker Launched. The U. 8. S. Tucker, destroyer No. 374, constructed at the Navy Yard. Portsmouth. Va., was launched on Feb. 28. 1936. There were about 6,000 people at the launching ceren»nie«?. • : -----K New English Planes. One hundred new war planes are being built for the British Royal Air force. The new machines, mono­ planes of the Vickers ‘Weasley" type, are built of metal lattace work, which gives them a saving in structure work of 35 to 40 percent. Sponsor For Mugford. The Secretary of the Navy ha" de­ signated Miss Madeline Ome of Mar­ blehead, Mass., as sponsor for the U. 8. 8. Mugford, named in honor of her great-great-grand uncle, the late Cap­ tain James Mugford, U . S. navy. The Mugford is being built at the navy yard, Boston.

Take your husband or son along for advice when you go to buy a fashion­ able and strictly tailored suit for Eas­ ter, is the suggestion to women from Helen Simmonds, instructor in tex­ tiles and clothing at Michigan State college, Easl Lansing. "Ask advice from the men. They will like it and I am sure you will profit by it," says Miss Simmonds. "Men through years of experience have discovered that a good fabric will outwear any number of cheap ones and that it is extremely import­ ant to select goods that will not wrinkle but will hold its shape." For the woman who does not want to be to mannish in a suit, Miss Sim­ monds suggests feminine blouses and accessories that make a suit look dainty and fresh. Suitable fabrics in­ clude an attractive woolen called "shark skin" in gray or tan tones. Navy blue, says this authority, is popular this year, with competition from light to dark gray cloths. Blous­ es, scarfs and vests can be used for variety in wearing the street suit. A new spring coat may be a sub­ stitute for a new Easter suit*. Gay frocks blend with new coats this year, says Miss Simmonds, for designers of prints of silks, synthetic cloths, cot­ tons and linens have outdone them­ selves to produce attractive designs. For evening wear, that "something new" may include organza which is a starched chiffon, or an evening dress adapted from offerings of the drapery department, glazed printed chintz. WEDDINGS.

Road Com. Ill With Heart Trouble Some Time. A crowd that filled the First Meth­ odist church auditorium and over­ flowed in Hide-rooms greeted the Eas­ ter Sunday evening program by the Sunday school. The Risen Christ, the Saviour of the. world, was the theme that ran through the entire program. The little folks of the primary de­ partment pleased the audience with their songs and recitations. Songs by the junior and intermediate de­ partments were well received, as were the drills of the junior boys and girls. Mrs. F. C. Boies gave a splendid Easter reading. "I Go a-Fishlng,” a stoiy of the Disciple Peter. Miss Ja­ nette Berry favored the audience with a beautiful Easter solo. Following the offertory, the short drama, ’’The Keepers Did Shake," was presented by the senior young people of the Sunday school. Palms, oriental rugs and tapestry were a fit­ ting background for the costly robes of Pontius Pilate, taken by Hinman Sackett, and Caiaphas, the high priest, taken by Edward Haines. The final acene in which Pilate's wife, Procula, taken by Georgia Butler, prayer to her God, was very beauti­ ful. "A- lighted cross, representing Christ, flashed on as she prayed. The voice of CtiYlst spoke to her from off stage. The three guards at the tomb were Earl Pennock. Dennis Yarger, Jr.. and Paul Housler. Paul Pennock took the part of the centurion, and Leon­ ard Jarstfcr, the servant. Anne Mayo was a servant in Pilate's household, and Helen Bassett, a maid to Procula.

Anti-Saloon League Drama Given Here “Death Takes The Steering Wheel’’ * At Evangelical Church Tuesday Night. "To rest content with results ach­ ieved is the first of business decay." A nature program was presented by the Woman's Literary club at its reg­ ular bi-monthly meeting held on Wed­ nesday afternoon of last week. Mem­ bers responded to the roll call by des­ cribing wonders of nature. These ranged from the germination of a tiny seed, to the force and might of Nia­ gara Falls. Mrs. Clarence Mater delighted the club with her paper on Mother Goose. She said Mother Goose was a Mrs. Goose, member of a wealthy Boston family, whose only daughter married a printer by the name of Thomas Fleet. Mrs. Goose loved to sing to the little grandson, bom to Mr. and Mrs. Fleet. She made up the songs which she sang in a manner most displeas­ ing to the son-in-law. Thinking to ridicule Mother Goose, Mr. Fleet took down Mother Goose's songs and print­ ed them in book form, calling them "Mother Goose's Melodies for Chil­ dren." “The Conflict of Nature Between the Soil and the Sea" was the fine pa­ per given by Mrs. Chester Smith. She illustrated the first part of her talk by telling of projects worked out on the home farm to overcome the blow­ ing away of valuable muck and the carrying down of sand onto the rich soil of the farm. But, as she said, "Man proposes, God disposes." In both instances the weather was such the following year that the new pro­ ject was not needed. She then went on to tell what hap­ pened in the Dakotas when the far­ mers drained the few marshes in or­ der to use the land beneath, and drained off the waters from the melt­ ing snows, thereby taking away prac­ tically al! the moisture this section of the country had for growing wheat In closing, Mrs. Smith told of the re­ cent floods in which dams man has constructed crumbled before the rush of water; dykes were breached, and the torrents poured through. The closing paper, "Control of Hurt­ ful Insects by Counteracting Insects," was given by Mrs. Ralph Pennock. She told of the importation of the vedalia beetle from Australia in 1888 to work upon the cottony-cushion scale of citrus in California. Within a year the scale was completely subjugated, she said. The gypsy moth and the brown-tall moth were the next discussed. "The first shipment of parasites of these moths was received in 1905 and at the present time importations are being made of parasites of such insects as the European corn borer, the Japan­ ese beetle, the oriental fruit moth and several forest insects," Mrs. Pennock •aid. "The beetles commonly known as lady-bugs or lady beetles are among the most common of all beneficial in­ sects, while the convergient beetle, commonly seen in the west, helps the western state in the fight ogainst aph­ ids," she related. She went on to tell of methods for the control of the mealy bug, plant lice, caterpillar, sawfly, white grub, oriental fruit moth and spoke of the work of the spider in helping to keep in control the housefly. Mrs. John Greene had charge of ex­ change of bulbs and seeds. Mrs. Wil­ liam A. Vance acted as hostess for the afternoon. "Death Takes the Steering Wheel," a dramatized court trial telling of the tragedy of Michigan’s highways and home under control of the liquor In­ dustry, to have been given here some time ago, and postponed indefinitely, was presented Tuesday night at the Evangelical church, with the follow­ ing cast of characters.

ACHIEVEMENT DAY DATES ARRANGED Plant Food Aid* Farm Gardeners Soil Expert Suggests Addition Of Commercial Fertilizers To Applica. tion Of Barnyard Manure. Proper attention to plant food In the farm garden can make an cnormous increase in the yield of vege­ tables, suggests James Tyson, assLstant professor and research assistant in the soils department at Michigan State college. Barnyard manure is the natural fer­ tilizer to use on farm gardens because it is available and requires no finan­ cial outlay. Yet valuable as it is as a source of plant food, applied regular­ ly at intervals of two or three years, he recommends the addition of some commercial fertilizer to the garden SOIL “For clay soils, add 400 pounds of 4-16-4 or 2-16-2 to the manure appli­ cation to 10 to 15 loads per acre. For loams and sandy loams," Professor Tyson recommends, "use 400 pounds of 4-16-8 or 600 pounds of 2-12-6 per. acre. For beans and peas in clay soils use 0-20-2 fertilizer or 0-14-6 in loam or sandy loa|n garden soil. "Barnyard manure should be spread over the garden before plowing. Some of the fertilizer may be broadcast ov­ er the surface and plowed under and some of it saved to spread in the bot­ tom of the row and covered with soil before planting seeds. Another good method is to apply the fertilizer in parallel bands two Inches on each side of the seed row and a little below the seed. This is especially useful in the potato rows.’’ Farm gardens strongly acid in re­ action will respond to the use of lime, says Professor Tyson, but he does not recommend an application on soil to be used for growing potatoes because of the greater danger from scab In­ Jury.

The alee! joists for the second floor were placed and welded to the steel girder beams. Workmen poured the con­ crete sub floor for the second story Monday. The sub floors for the boiler and coal room, office, corridors, class rooms, and toilets are in place. In the gymnasium and auditorium the, planting steel supports for the balcony are cemented in position. The boys’ dressing and shower room will be un­ der the baltony, while the girls’ room is to be placed under the stage. The placing of the large windows and completion of stone work to the second floor level at the west side of the audtorium gives the observer an idea of the size and arrangement of the new addition. Friday and Saturday the workmen bricked in the windows on the north side of the old building, closing off the north light in Mrs. Butler’s, Miss Ber­ ry's and Miss Kemp’s rooms. The auditorium will have two large double door entrances, one at the northeast and one at the southwest comers. The new addition will be fire proof, with only two openings between .the first and second floors: one a stairs at the north end of the corridor, and the second a wide stairs at the junction of the west entrance and the long north and south corridor. All building material for the second floor or above is elevated by a gaso­ line hoist. Modern machinery and methods have enabled the contractor to build rapidly and efficiently. The Nashville project is farther advanced at this time than most of the other projects in this state. —Wallace. Senior Agricultural Class.

The District Elementary Teachers’ club met Monday evening for potluck dinner. A. W. Thompson, director of health, physical education and public recreation, discussed the recreational program of Grand Rapids. Health education is the sum of all exper­ iences which favorably influence hab­ its. attitudes and knowledge relating ’ the individual, community and ra­ il health. This is benefited by pub­ health education, school health edation through health instruction id healthful school living, and fin al by health service. There is a great .t-c-essity of using a uniform vocabu.iry for health and recreation. a the past there has been too much confusion as to the meaning of these terms by different localities and per­ sons. The physical education program was conducted by that department, and the program was modified to meet the needs of the school and chil­ dren. The recreational program, directed by Mr. Thompson, is conducted by PA workers. It is surprising the . aount of latent talent that has been . -ought'into activity.

Sam Ostroth Wai Seventy Years Old North Maple Grove Evangelical Church Filled For Celebration On Monday Evening. Relatives, friends and neighbors of the community, and others from Quimby and Hastings, gathered Mon­ day evening in numbers which practi­ cally filled the North Evangelical church, to honor the 70th birthday of the Rev. Samuel Ostroth, an Evangel­ ical minister and active always in church work, an affair long to be re­ membered by the recipient of the honors. A program especially appropriate preceded the congratulatory and vis­ ing period, and opened with a piano selection by Mrs. Leslie Adams, fol­ lowed by community singing, •'In My Heart There Rings a Melody" at 8:00 o’clock, after which Rev. Elmer Prit­ chard of the Nashville Evangelical church offered prayer. Ortha Haw­ blitz and Rose Mary Marshall gave the first of four special songs, "Step by Step," followed by “With Me, All the Way" by Naomi Rhoades and Maxine Ostroth. The third song by Leslie Adams and Clyde Walton was "Some Bright Morning." Rev. Mr. Rhoades pastor of the church, then presented Mr. Ostroth with a plant in behalf of the church, for which he ex­ pressed his appreciation, and gave a talk. Messrs. Adams and Walton fa­ vored with another song, “Just Out­ side the Door." Rev. H. I. Voelker of Flint, a for­ mer District Superintendent and pas­ tor of the Nashville Evangelical church, was the guest speaker, after which the congregation sang “All Hall the Power of Jesus* Name," and was dismissed by the benediction pro­ nounced by Rev. Voelker. A basket of lovely flowers was pre­ sented by the Joseph Bell family, with Rev. and Mrs. Ostroth receiving together the congratulations for his natal day, following which the assem­ bled company remained for a rime to visit informally. Mr. Ostroth has been an Evangeli­ cal minister and active in religious work for many years. His host of friends wish him many more happy birthday events. Randall J. Wade, 81, Died In Flint Former Assistant Postmaster Here. Burial Services Tuesday At Lake­ view Cemetery. Randall J. Wade. 81. a former as­ sistant postmaster here during the in­ cumbency of Len W. Feighner, who had resided in Flint since leaving Nashville some years ago, was found dead tn bed Saturday morning at his residence in the auto city. Prior to his service in the local postoffice. Mr. Wade assisted in the management of the old Wolcott House during its ownership by Mrs. Jacob Osmun. Older residents of the village recall that at one time Mr. and Mrs. Wade operated a shoe store in the building occupied for the past several years by Fred Tarbell. Mrs. Wade, whu died several years ago, was also a clerk for many years in the dry goods store conducted for & long period by Kocher Bros., who were pioneer merchants here. One son, Homer W. Wade, together with his family, of Battle Creek, are the immediate survivors. Mrs. Hom­ er Wade will be remembered as the former Stella Cole, a member of the family which successfully operated the Thomapple lake resort for many years. Funeral services for Randall J. Wade were conducted at Flint at 10:30 Tuesday morning, and the re­ mains brought to Nashville with a service at Lakeview cemetery at 2:30 p. m., followed by burial in the fam­ ily lot.

There has been no vision among leaders of this potentially vast -hances at the expense of the driving and walking public, not using common industry. Homes StUl The worst lag in the in­ A Luxury. dustrial recovery we arc experiencing is in the building trades. It is dragging far be­ hind every other line. Why is this? The one big reason is that modern homes cost too much for the pocket- sense in congested places, or speeding through towns like our own with no regards foi; the rights of others. It was just luck that Mrs. John Appelman of Nashville was injured and not killed by a speeding truck on Main street in the accident of a few weeks ago. All these things should be on record at Lansing and then when driver vio­ lators want their driver’s licenses re­ newed, they should have to appear personally in Lansing and show why they should be permitted to have a li­ cense. If the driver has reformed, the license should be issued; if not, the license be withheld, and if he drives without one and is “picked up,’’ he should be given something to remem­ ber it by. With nearly everyone on the highway, in or driving a car, and state authorities haring no personal interest like the local officers in Bill Smith or Joe Jones, this record scheme would seem to be a great step forward, providing all the secretaries of state were all of the same mind, but of course if it was made perma­ nent, they would have to have that at­ titude. With the carelessness and lawlessness which has crept into the picture the past few years, motor cars have become a menace to the law­ abiding, careful driver and pedestrian as well as the violator. Carelessness and lawlessness are taking a terrible toll. Whole regi­ ments are not wiped out as in war, but the effect is just as deadly, with no armistice. Perhaps these words are wasted, along with so much else that has been said and written in concerted safety campaigns, and by individuals. But something has to be done, and if it is not accomplished some other way, the automobile makers will have even­ tually to shoulder the responsibility and devise mechanical ways to ensure spfer driving THURSDAY, APRIL 23.

CREAM IMPROVEMENT PRO­ GRAM BENEP1TS F VRMPRS A cream improvement program conducted by tbe state department of agriculture resulted in an Increased income to Michigan farmers of ap­ proximately four million dollars in 1934, Commissioner of Agriculture James F.

The butter production in the state for the year was about 90 millior. pounds, ar increase of 10 per cent ov­ er 1934. Tbomsoo is prepared to disdose these facts to members of the Michigan Crea mery Owners and Man­ agers aswjciation at their annal spring meeting to be held at East Lansing. Thomson said that prior to tbe in­ auguration of tbe cream improvement program as much as 20 per cent of cream wold in tbe state was under grade at various times during the year.

Buy Hunt Areas, Forester Warns College Authority Suggests City Hunters Demand State Purchase Shooting Grounds. For the protection of farmers own­ ing lands suitable for hunting and for the preservation of Michigan’s valu­ able hunting, recommendation comes from Professor P. A. Herbert, head of tee forestry department of Michigan State college, that city hunters de­ mand that the state purchase hunting grounds at reasonable prices. “Farmers are not receiving any ad­ vantage when hunters come to their doors, ask for permission to hunt, promise to close gates and respect property rights," says Professor Her­ bert. "Sooner or later the num who pays taxes on wild land will ask a reasonable compensation from those who desire to utiliztj that land. The average hunter who can afford to do so would rather pay than to beg per­ mission. *1 am in favor of assisting the poor city hunter, however, who cannot af­ ford to pay the private landowner. The opportunity to hunt without charge will become more and more restricted. It can be expected that more and more farmers, paying tax­ es, will post their land with no tres­ passing signs, for this is a property right that is widely recognized in the east and in Europe where game has become scarce." As executive secretary of the Mich­ igan Forestry association. Professor Herbert points out that as time goes on wild land values likely will in­ crease as they have in the east It would be much cheaper he thinks, to fulfill the demand for public hunting grounds now than to wait for fifty years until land prices are much high­ er. As the demand for good hunting areas increases he believes both pub­ lic and private owners will take steps to provide cover and food and re­ stock. charging an amount for shoot­ ing privileges that will be sufficient to repay public ownership for - the ex­ pense, or sufficient to repay the pri­ vate owner to cover actual costs, tax­ es and a reasonable return on monej invested in the land. Offer More Uses For Maple Syrup There’s no argument that pancakes and maple syrup make a combination that is practically unbeatable for starting out a day in a sweet frame of mind, but sugar bush operators in Michigan and home economic special­ ists at Michigan State college believe that the use of maple syrup can be made a year 'round practice in house­ holds that like maple flavor. Confections Ice cream, puddings and sau?es are natural spots in which to use maple sugar or maple syrup for flavor, with perhaps some nut­ meats for variety. Out in the state some of the oldest sugar bush lots have seen a decreas­ ing usage each spring because far­ mers realize that unless they sell their syrup and sugar while cold mornings and hot griddle cakes are in fashion they will have little or no market forI their maple products until another । fall and winter roll around on tee cal-. endar. One dessert recipe that sounds giod ; even on paper is called "Maple I Dreams.” Cut stale bread in slices one-fourth inch thick. Remove the crust, butter half of the slices and add . a thin layer of chopped dates spread .--venly over each slice. Butter the remaining slices, and place them on top of those spread with dates, pressing lightly together to form sandwiches. Dip each sandwich in a mixture of one egg slightly beaten with one cup of milk, and bnrtyn in a little butter. Serve with maple sauce. Another simple but palate tickling dessert is a maple flavored rice pud­ ding. Combine two and one-half cups of boiled rice and two and one-half cups of milk, ^eat three eggs and one cup of maple syrup together, add them to the rice and milk, and add one-half teaspoon of salt, one-half teaspoon of nutmeg and one cup of raisins. Pour the mixture into a but­ tered pudding dish, place the dish in a pan of hot water, and bake at about 350 degrees Fahrenheit in tee oven: or cook the mixture in the top of a double boiler. —Ionia county's spelling champion of the 1936 series is an 11 year old Ionia city high school girt, Jean Hulzenga, .who was the 1935 runner-up.

However, the Act provides for settlement of certain specified in­ juries on a basis of a definite number of weeks, in the event the settlement agreement is made by the employer or his insurance company and the em­ ployee end Is approved by the board. Under such settlements, a lump Bum may be agreed upon and awarded in place of the weekly payments. In the past year, a total of 612 ap­ plications for lump sum settlement approval have been filed with the de­ partment and approximately 60 per cent have been granted and approved. Each case is considered on its own merits with the determining factor be­ ing the ability or opportunity of the disabled workman to improve his sit­ uation with the payment of the lump sum. Regardless of the fact that the commission has endeavored to exer­ cise a protective and supervising dis­ cretion as to the proposed application of the proceeds of such lump sum set­ tlements. the number of cases tn which the applicant has been led into speculative and wholly unprofitable adventure and has thereby lost the benefit or protection of the fund in­ tended to afford him some measure of actual relief has been steadily increas­ ing. Under the law as now on the sta­ tute books, it is impossible for the de­ partment to control the application money for lump sum settlements. If the state is to exercise discretion In the matter of such settlements, there should be some agency created to make an entirely independent study of not only the present needs but also the future exigencies of each individ­ ual case, and the settlement to be ap­ proved should not be based upon the desired discount of the insurance company or the employers or the fan­ cied desire of the injured employee but rather upon the application of the Investment proposed. The Workmen's Compensation Act was proposed to be of a paternalistic character. Most of these cases which have been granted have seen the benefic­ iaries settled on small farms or estab­ lished in gasoline stations. A Good Appointment. Secretary of State Orville FL At­ wood made t most excellent appoint­ ment last week when he 2ho.ic James B. Haskins, publisher of the Howard City Record, to head the important Building and Loan division of his de­ partment Mr. Haskinp Is well known through­ out the state and no one will question the value of this appointment This division looks after the var­ ious Building and Loon associations in Michigan. The last report shows 64 of them operating in the state with assets of $114,871,254 00. The com­ panies are subject to frequent exam­ inations by the department and they have been so carefully supervised that even in the worst of the depres­ sion, there was little difficulty in meeting their obligations to tbeir stockholders. A few of these societies have been federalized during the past year, but as there seems to be no advantage in this, the great majority have decided to remain under tbe state supervision. Hands Off Policy. Last week the Governor Indicated very strongly that be was not at­ tempting in any way to dictate the policies of the various local conven­ tions. In fact, he wired tbe chairmen of the various district organizations to the effect that he was in no wise interested in what they did. feeling that they were perfectly competent to manage their own affairs. Load Restrictions Lifted. Spring load restrictions which have been in effect on trunk line highways since March 12 have been lifted on roads in Southern Michigan which have recovered from the effects of spring break-up. State Highway Commissioner Mur­ ray D. VanWagoner painted out that unfavorable conditions following the unusually severe winter have made it necessary to keep load restrictions in effect for a longer period than usual As rapidly as subgrades arc dried out sufficiently to carry heavy traffic, spe­ cial spring regulations will be relaxed. The list of highways upon wnicb spring restrictions are no longer In force follows: US-223 from the state line to US-112.

KING & SON’S SEEDS ARE SOLD IN NASHVILLE The demand for really dependable seed com is increasing. Seed com germlnators all through mid-western states are busy these days helping to find seed com that was not killed by the record cold winter. The Nashville Co-Operative Elevator company an­ nounces the arrival for immediate sale of "King's” famous ear-sorted, butted and tipped seed corn.

One of the old, reliable concerns in Battle Creek is H. C. King & Sons. Inc., whose farm field seeds are synony­ mous with dependable results. E. D. Olmstead of the Co-Operative Elevator is enthusiastic about the quality of this seed corn and has an abundant supply of it. “Farmers who know tlie King reputation and are fa­ miliar with their method of removing the small butt and tip kernels,” he said, "are asking for King’s by name.

The highway ferries have bettered conditions for the greater part of the year, as have added boat decks and extended docks and elevators at the docks, but the stream of tourists desiring to cross the straits grows yearly, to say noth­ ing of the upper peninsula folks who have business at the state capital, Detroit, or some other lower Mich­ igan point. It's a long trip when on business in the winter when ice crush­ ing is necessary whichever ferry point they elect to use.

There will be a bridge some day, between Mackinaw City and St Ignace. You'll Pay The cost of living is al­ ways one of the gravest problems the public fac­ es. During the depression the prob­ lem became magnified many times. Today, in spite of the recovery that has been made. It is still greater than ordinary, for that recovery has been followed by rises in the price level by increased Income so far as millions Government should attempt to hold the cost of living to as low a level a^ is economically possible. But govern­ ment, to the contrary, has followed a diametrically different course. It has passed law after law which made a higher cost of living inevitable. And at the same time, it has penalized dis­ tributing methods which made it pos­ sible to sell the necessities of life to the consumer at a lower cost, without damage to the producer. The taxes passed by various states against large merchandizing organi­ zations are indicative of the latter— taxes that must inevitably be parsed on to the consumer. And bills are now pending tn Congress which would Few of us think about fire. Few of us take the trouble to learn the sim­ ple lessons that would enable us to f-Hmtnate fire hazards on our proper­ ty—hazards that, in nine cases out of ten, could be done away with at little or no expense. Few of us realize that the entire community must help pay for every fire that occurs—in higher inves and insurance rates, in lost bus­ iness, in destroyed opportunities for industries and individuals, in business stagnation. Some of the greatest fires have started from seemingly harmless or­ igins. One greasy rag in the corner of your garage could become the focal point for a blaze that would destroy a hundred homes. So could old, ama­ teurishly repaired electric wiring. So could the cigarette you threw away without looking to see where it fell. So could the leaky flue which you’re going to have repaired on some dis­ tant tomorrow that may never come. The overwhelming majority of fires result from such obvious hazards as these. They cost us hundreds of dol­ lars a year, and cause an indirect loss several times as great. Infinitely more Important, they destroy thou­ sands of lives. You and your neigh­ bors can take the steps that will moke your community safe—that will lower fire loss 75 per cent Is it worth the small effort required? The AAA The country needs to be evidence that it was as­ tonished, at the disclosures which Secretary Wallace made regarding heavy-weight payments to corpora­ tions and individuals subscribing to AAA crop control. A Florida sugar-producing cor­ poration received >1.067,665, heading the list of large benefactors. Another large sugar payment, >961,064, went into the treasury of a Puerto Rican corporation. There were a large number of Items in the’ “partial report" which will bear considerable study and explana­ tion. One notes that an Arkansas cotton company received >84,000 jointly with the Federal Farm Credit administration and that the entire amount was used to pay off a govern­ ment loan made in February, 1933. Apparently the cotton business which warranted this loon in the first place must have undergone an astonishing recovery to be able to divert the whole amount to repayment of the government loan. The corn-hog payment of >150,000 to a California producing corporation, the >41,454 payment to a Florida to­ bacco concern operating 49 farms, the rice payment of >59,285 to a Louis­ iana company, are not in themselves extraordinary, but large payments to two southern prison farms seems a less happy use of the taxpayers* mon­ The importance of the disclosures made at Senator Vandenberg’s insist­ ence, would aeem to lie in their effect on the future course of government agricultural policy. What has been ever impreaaive the figures may be But soil conservation and the spend­ ing of more billions, is the present venture of the administration. Public that program in the light of Sscre- cutMwing certain cf greater savings in the routine of payments. , Without attempting to estimate the political effect of the disclosures, it seems obvious that the department of agriculture was reluctant to make them. Hence, it should follow that the department is conscious of faults in a policy of payments which per­ mitted such lavish individual expendi­ tures. Yet without Senator Vanden­ berg'S determined fight bn the Senate floor, it seems likely the campaign year might have passed without the question being raised. One wonders, therefore, whether the soil conserva­ tion program is outlined with intent to avoid such excessive individual payments for "conserving soil.” Something might also be said about the consistency of. protecting AAA beneficiaries from publicity. Secre­ tary Wallace apparently doesn't like the farming corporations yet he with­ holds the kind of publicity so deter­ minedly given business men's incomes under the new deal A good deal will be said, too, about the policy of government which per­ mits'a single department to give a million dollars to an individual firm In to file a formal demand for the facts. defense, of thelarge benefit payments raises the same demand for explana­ tion in connection with what is pro­ posed in "soil conservation.” Mr. Wallace says that the AAA crop con­ trol had to include large producers In order to be a success. By the same reasoning It would appear that “soil conservation” has to include these same producers, else the entire pro­ gram might as well be considered simply a political gesture to the small producer. — Battle Creek Enquirer News. There is a story recorded In the third chapter of Daniel which Is loved by all students of the Bible because it reveals the power of God to save from the fury of hatred all those who have the “mind . . which was also in Christ Jesus” Three Hebrew cap­ tives. Shadrach, Meshach. and Abednego, refused to worship the golden Image set up by Nebuchadnezzar, and, when arrested and told that they must obey the edict or be thrown in­ to a’fiery fuma’.e, they replied to the king that their God was able to save them. These men refused to allow fear, resentment, self-pity, or despair to enter their thought when confronted with the machinations of the Chal­ deans who were moved by jealousy. They refused to obey the king's edict in reference to worship, even though they faced his anger and threat of punishment They worshiped God. Spirit, and refused to bow down to the Idolatrous worship of gold or any other material thing. When the punishment was carried out they kept their faith, courage, convictions, equanimity of spirit and loyalty to God, which the destroying fire could not touch. And their men­ tal hold upon the understanding that God protects His children was so strong tBht their bonds were loosed and they walked unharmed in the fur­ nace, These Hebrew men recognized the Christ long before Jesus appeared in the world, who, in speaking of the Christlinesa of his nature declared, "Before Abraham was, I am" (John 8:58). Their thought was so imbued with the presence of God’s saving power that there appeared walking with them one whose form was "like the Son of God." Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, passed through many fiery trials in her unselfish effort to restate the Christianity of Jesus with such lucid­ ity that mankind could utilize its teachings to gain salvation from ills of every nature. In "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures,” the Christian Science textbook (p. 586), she defines "fire” as "fear; re­ morse; lust; hatred; destruction; af­ fliction purifying and elevating man." In the light of this definition, we re­ alise that our faith in God, our reli­ ance on Truth, and our spiritual work for our own and others’ welfare often may be tried as by fire. We are call­ ed upon to overcome fear or remorse, and to bring ourselves unscathed through experiences in which lust and hatred plot our destruction or the an­ nihilation of the good works we ac­ complish through spiritual means. Az Paul declared (I Corinthians 3:13), “Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is." If we. like those Hebrew captives, maintain our dependence upon God with purity of thought, we shall be as­ sured of the presence of the Christ. Our fetters will fall, and we shall step forth from every fiery trial purified and unharmed. Others will recognizc the truth upon which we Jean. even at did Nebucaadnezzar when he beheld the saving power which protected the three Hebrews. If. in looking back upon an exper­ ience, we do so not to remember its severity, but rather to rejoice in our deliverance therefrom, we shall have no aftereffects—no “smell of fire" up■on uh.

In another case a man had with him a porcupine. Upon being questioned as to what he would do with it, he replied that someone had tried to bring evil to him. but that he would kill his pet, burn it, and stand in its smoke. Then no harm could come to him. Divorces are very easy for the hus­ band to get. All he need do is to re­ peat three times, “I divorce you,” then secure a paper proving his statements and he is free. He need not bother to inform his wife of the act. As a means of financial protection many women invest whatever extra money they may secure in jewelry; first may­ be a gold chain, or part of it More may be added, then gold coins and other ornaments. When women are divorced they may keep their jewelry, which can be sold for purchasing food of, clothing. While a greater value is placed on boys than on girls, yet the conduct of the latter is carefully supervised. Girls have had less opportunities for education than the boys have, and It is only in the last few years that the former have been permitted to go to England to study, and likewise it is a new development for girls to go back into the Egyptian schools to teach. We may expect the native women to be largely instrumental in altering conditions in their country, for when those fortunate enough to have wealth learn how the others live, they are anxious to improve the lot of their countrymen. The missions have done much for Egypt, but much remains yet to be done. Schools which we take for granted are for the few in Cairo. Health and sanitation is unknown to the majority. Superstition, filth, star­ vation, blindness—all this and much worse is the best that many of them have to look forward to. The collec­ tion which was taken is being added to funds to help further foreign mission work. . A splendid service was held at the M. E. church on Sunday evening, Aprilx19 Special music helped develop thc\heme of foreign mission work. Mrs. Grace Pultx and Arthur Lower, accompanied by Mrs. Hoyt, sang a duet, "O Divine Redeemer,” by Char­ les Goudnod. Miss Jeanette Berry, accompanied by Miss Frances French, sang "The Prayer Perfect.” Another lovely feature of the pro­ gram was a candle lighting service, for which Rev. Myron E. Hoyt read the Scripture references which served as its basis. At the beginning only six candles were lighted on a table before the pulpit, these representing the prophets who came before Christ Then, to portayr the coming of Jesus, the tall central taper was lighted. Later, at the invitation, “Come all ye who are weary and heavy laden—" seven young people came from var­ ious parts of the church to light their tapers from the tall one. At the command. “Go ye into all the world—" they departed and carried their light to all the congregation, adults having been provided with smaller candles. At the close of the ceremony, the room was bright with the light of candles at the front, in the windows, and in the hands of the people, even as the world is brighter with tne growth of mission work through all the world. Assisting with this part of the service were Edward Haines, Eleanor and Georgia Butler, Viola Baas. Genevieve Biggs. Leonard Jarstfer, and Courier Taft • The climax of the evening was the talk given by Miss Elsie Bender, for­ mer missionary to Cairo, Egypt, row associated with the teacher-training staff at W. S. T. C., Kalamazoo, Mich. Miss Bender was sent to the foreign field by the United Presbyterian board for a period of three years. Upon her arrival at Cairo she knew nothing of the Arabic langauge, and though guides and servants knew^ enough English to make themselves understood, it was quite a different MSC SpmlaltaU To HoU Dnnonatmmatter when Miss Bender began her tions Showing Proper Methods In Saving Fruit Trees. work with small children who were newly enrolled in the mission school Severe damage to apple, pear, Miss Bender taught in a school peach, cherry, and plum orchards which accepted girls just beginning throughout Michigan by rabbits and their formal education, and carried mice makes immediate preparation them on through what would compare for bridge and other forms of graft­ with our sophomore year in college. ing or replacement imperative, says No discrimination was made as to Dr. V.

There are still many superstitions to be found in the land. One is that anyone may say a curse agalst another and bring him harm. One instance of this was recounted in Miss Bender's talk. She was vis­ iting in a girl's home one day, and had asked another girl to show her the way. As they went up the steps to the house. Mias Bender noticed X’s all the way up on either side. She asked her ycung companion, who ex- ! trees should be put in moist sand or sawdust until the time for grafting operation, when the bark begins to slip.

Our guests. Misses Frieda 1 Smith, Sarah Gillespie and Marie' Micksell, provided several very inter-, •rttag number, on the program. They ’ were accompanied by Misses Ruby and Annabelle CogwwiIL A few years ago an attempt was made to consolidate part of the schools of Castleton and Maple Grove townships with the Nashville district. The attempt caused much hard feel­ ing between the rural districts and Nashville. The closing of our bank and the loss of many thousands of hard earned dollars by its depositors halted for a time any further move but now another attempt is being made. Being a taxpayer in one district in each township as well as in Nashville. I । consider it my duty to place some essential facts before the voters in these townships. The data given below are from latest tax receipts of Norton district, Maple Grove; Mudge district, Castleton; Nashville village, and the Woodland Consolidated district, all of which I have before me. First, I give a quotation, as printed in the Grand Rapids Press the latter part of March, of a speech delivered by Dr. Eugene Elliott, Superintendent of Public instruction, before the Midwest Physical Education association, in the Hotel Pantlind, as follows: “It isn’t necessary to tear down the existing good rural buildings. It isn't necessary to trans­ port everybody several n dies to a central school—The high school group easily could be transported. Those in the low­ er grades could attend school near their homes. But all would be under responsible leadership—It is a mistake to force centralization on rural groups." It is claimed consolidation will not increase taxes in these rural districts. Let us look at mj’ tax receipts for the truth. In each of the outside districts in which I pay taxes for school purposes, the rate is two and a half mills, or $2.50 a $1,000 valuation. The rate in Nashville is 6 mills, or two and a quarter times as much. The rate of 6 was made in the old school building. The addition under con­ struction will treble the size of the school building with pro­ portionate increase in cost of janitor, fuel and light. To say that taxes will not be increased is to ignore entirely the facts. A raise to from 7 to 9 mills, as compared with the 2 1-2 mills these districts now enjoy, may be expected. I give below data from the last tax receipt of the Wood­ land Consolidated district. The school tax, maintenance and debt charge, is 13 mills, or over five times that paid by Norton and Mudge districts. The maintenance tax alone is two and a quarter times as treat. The whole tax in the Woodland district is two and two-fifths times as great as the same taxes in the Norton and Mudge districts. Here is another side to this question. We in Nashville are painfully aware that in this new school building we have a white elphant on our hands. If you on the outside wish higher taxes you can put your neck in the yoke with us and you will be accommodated. When once in and the taxes come faster than you can take it and you attempt to get out, you will realize the truth of that old saying, “Look before you leap." We will always have a majority vote and you are hooked for keeps. Only a few years ago our whole tax in Nashville was $49.81 per $1,000 valuation, and it can go there again. —advertisement. ED. LIEBHAU3ER. The Miracle Becomes a Commonplace This Michigan gentleman takes modem telephone service calmly. He does no marveling over the fact that he can so easily call up a friend to ask about a sledding party, or to find out tomorrow’s assignment in arithmetic. And yet his father knew a day when it was still considered a miracle that two people, miles apart, could talk to one another just as if they were standing face to face. Hq can remember when the telephone was a curiosity, when the service was slow, expen­ sive and almost entirely restricted What changed the miracle to a commonplace? Why did tele­ phones in Michigan, during a single generation, increase from 340,000 to 630,000? The chief factor behind u J this change was value. A con* stantly growing usefulness made the telephone a good “buy." Each year additional thousands of people found it worth more than it cost. Every new telephone in­ stalled broadened the range— and value—of the others. The ser­ vice grew steadily more prompt, more dependable. New uses were found for it Subscribers learned tha.‘ it brought them profitable convenience, comfort, protection. And the telephone, meanwhile, changed from a curiosity to an indispensable part of the social and business life of Michigan. The sincere desire of the Mich­ igan Bell Telephone Company is tliai each year shall see greater telephone value rendered for every dollar of telel H phone cost MICHIGAN BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY �Morgan By Mra Mamie Webb Harrington.

Our new village council ha.” taken over the aflairs of the village and is now the target -of criticism as was its predecessor. This seems to lx; the rule rather than the exception these days; criticism is easier than com­ mendation -and much better "form.” The completion of our new water project, begun in President Lorbeck’s regime, under state compulsion, is one of the problems of the new coun­ cil. With an .unusually hard winter as to snow and freezing temperatures, the prefect could not be completed in the old village year. Although the Diesel engines are in place and Ralph Olin has the appointment to operate them, the steam equipment, which has been operated so long by Frank Russell who is also the "walking blue­ print” of the water department. ' are still in use. The new engines are not yet officially accepted by the council though they have undergone the pre­ liminary test by a Fairbanks engin­ eer which satisfied the engineer and Mr. Lorbeck as to their performance. When this work has been completed with the approval of the state health department there will probably fol­ low another demand that the village proceed with a sewage disposal plant. A new street commissioner with new equipment and a much,larger salary has been announced and the work begun. Just what the street plan is has not yet been made public. Spending of street monies has strings to it put there by law. but what Nashville needs is a permanent pro­ gram of binding tne road materials together. Pavement is not possible, perhaps it would have to be oil appli­ cation for a time, but there should be a more permanent plan worked out by this cbuncIL Vern McPcck. appointed marshal again, has some street duties, and if you look along the pavement gutters, from which the trash and dirt of the winter have disappeared, you will ap­ prove what has been done in that line. Villagers generally are pleased with the return of all the street lights and the larger lamps used and the loca­ tion. Later the village may decide for all night lighting. Steps for a municipally owned light plant with Diesel engines as visualiz­ ed by some runs into snags as the franchise of the Consumers Power Co., which succeeded the Thomapple Co., has between 20 and 30 years to run. The time Is approaching when this company will be piping in natural gas from the Michigan fields instead of the artificial gas from Lansing. As to the village funds, we have the clerk’s word that there was mon­ ey in each fund. The annual financial statement of the village has been us­ ually published in The News before election. A late settlement with Co. Treasurer Maus this year interfered with this March publication. Delayed Easter Dinner. Mr. and Mrs. A. E.

They were song sparrow, cat bird, cardinal and fox sparrow. We found a good patch of wild flowers, and each picked a bouquet for his mother. On the way home Mrs. Kel­ logg invited the children to see her fish pond, which was enjoyed very much. We were very tired when we, got back, but we had a very good time. We have been doing some free hand cutitng. In 25 minutes each one finI ished a fine picture of a flower. Ev­ ery picture was fun to look at be­ cause it was different from any-other. Every day some kindergartener paints at the easel. It is not a real easel but it serves the purpose and we like IL Our pictures are very large and are about many different things. They are put up in our room. We have many interesting things in our room. Many of our frog eggs have turned into tadpoles. In our aquarium we have a tiny turtle, cric­ ket, three snails and a grass frog. In a glass bowl in moss we have a moth­ er and father salamander. Several boys and girls brought woolly bear caterpillars and they have spun their cocoons in a glass case. In this case we have several Promethea, Cecropir and Polyphemus cocoons. Since fall the following kindergart­ eners have left Nashville school: Gor­ don Delamarter has moved to Oke­ mos; Russell Snyder is getting stronger for next year; Kendall Wil­ cox has gone to Feighner school; Clif­ ton Puffpaff left last Friday to Live in Hastings Order For Publication.

This play promises to give every­ one a full evening’s entertainment. In a little town named Rye. on the mid-western plains, lives old Silas Stonebraker and his lovely young daughter, Libby. They run the local hotel, or what is left of it, for they are slowly but surely facing poverty. But several days before Christmas, the westbound bus is stalled in a snowdrift at the edge of town and the roads ahead are blocked by the storm. So into the hotel come all the pas­ sengers. And what an odd assort­ ment they are! They range from the very comic to the tragic. Among them is one of the most likeable char­ acters ever written into a play, a breezy, bright ex-sailor, James Kear­ ney, who is on his way west after having served four years for Uncle Sam. He has been “everywhere," but has never taken any girl seriously un­ til he meets Libby. His feelings in the matter are returned, but a local swain, Harvey Keyser, feels that he holds prior claim upon Libby's affec­ tions, having helped her father finan­ cially upon several occasions. How Jim outwits the rural Romeo, buying a half interest in the hotel with a view to making it a bus stop-over with a lunch counter, forms the basis of not only an interesting play but an extrr meiy colorful one. It is packed with sure fire comedy and in the last act there is a bit of tense drama involving one of the bus passengers, that will grip the audi­ ence. Some of the more amusing characters are two college girts on -—Lake Odessa schools will grad­ uate a class of 42 this year. —Eaton county Federation of Wo­ men's club will bold its 32nd annual meeting at the Eaton Rapids M. E. church on Friday, May 8, an all day event with the college professor, Dwight Waldo, as principal speaker. SENIOR PLAY. ' their way home for the Christmas holidays; Trixie Angel, a girt with a pet dog that is the bane of all the passengers’ existence; Jessie Weath­ erby, a village lady of uncertain age, who hopes eventually to become Mrs. Silas Stonebraker: Mrs. Humphrey Mearson, a woman with a huge appe­ tite, and her romantic daughter, who is quite enamored of Jim, causing Libby some anxious moments. The play is a delightful study of how one small incident can affect and change the lives of others completely. Bingo, Saturday NightEach Saturday night the seniors are having a stand on Main street. This Saturday night they will again hold a Bingo game. Everyone come and play with the seniors and win a delicious cake or pie, or one of those delicious dishes.

GIFFORD ing week last year, and long distance calls originating in larger cities showed an increase for the week of about 19 per cent as compared with the corresponding week last year. The business of the System continues to show a steady gain. The investigation by the Federal Communications Commission for whir.h Congress appropriated >750,000 has been actively under way for more than a year. A large force of investigators is atill at work in the offices of the company and some of its affiliated companies. Public hear­ ings started in Washington on March 17. There is some question in my mind as 1 stated at the last hearing whether it is possible for the public to get a correct picture of the facts by the procedure which ha* been fol­ lowed in the hearings held thus far. We are making every effort to get something constructive out of the in­ vestigation. v Michigan Aided Flood State* The floods which broke all records in a number of the c astern stater last month created unprecedented difficul­ ties in the giving of telephone service over a i-rger area than the Bell Sys­ tem ha* experienced before. In Pennsylvania alone there were a quarter of a million telephones in the areas affected by the floods. In spite of the fact that the floods receded slowly, most of the trouble was re­ paired within ten days and within twe weeks service was practically normal. Bell System equipment and training are standardized so that men from any part of the System can g»’ to work anywhere else without delay. To help in Pennsylvania, men and trucks came from Ohio, Illinois, New York, Michi­ gan and New Jeisey. Similarly with supplies. The Western Electric com­ pany has 29 supply points throughout the United States. From twelve of these which were in the flooded areas or near enough to be called on for shipments, equipment was rushed to the stricken points. There were hun­ dreds of switchboards, 38,000 tele­ phones, about a million pounds of line wire, 50,000,000 conductor feet of rub­ ber insulated wire, 200,000,000 conduc­ tor feet of wire in lead covered cables, and large quantities of hardware and construction material. Despite the un­ precedented demand, 95 per cent of the orders were filled on the day re­ ceived—most of. them within a few hoar*. The Pittsburgh warehouse functioned delivering material from second Story windows of the ware­ house by boat Employees’ Spirit Highly Praised In a letter to the president of The New England Telephone and Tele­ graph Company the governor of New Hampshire says: “It is almost impossible for me to express to you the personal apprecia­ tion I feel and the appreciation I know the people of the State of New Hampshire feel for the services you gave us throughout your organization during the period of recent disaster. “Every means at your disposal was made available that the state could better combat the disastrous sequence of events which came upon us so rapidly and with so little warning. “Your company and its employee* performed a great service at a time when it was most needed. This per­ formance saved hundreds of lives and an untold amount of property both public and private. “It would be difficult to extend ap­ preciation individually to each of your employees who worked at their ]x»»ts during the flood. Please con­ vey to them my deep appreciation for the services they performed and the gratitude of the people of New Hamp­ shire whom they served so well.” The services rendered in New Hampshire were typical of those rendered elsewhere in this flood per­ iod and typical of the telephone work­ er*' services in past emergencies. The organization of the System provides the means and material for their effective work in crises but nothing but their own morale and the spirit of service account* for the ex­ traordinary personal courage and ef­ fort which they contribute. I want to take this opportunity of expressing my appreciation and 1 feel sure you will allow me to say the stockholders’ appreciation of the heroic achieve­ ments in this emergency of those thousands of telephone workers, many of whom had the same personal prob­ lems of loo* and distraction whieh af­ flicted the other inhabitants of the stricken districts. �Nashville Masonic Mother And Daughter Banquet Eve Of May 1 (Continued from Bret page) conic Building association.

People residing in nearby school districts seem to be much Interested in the proposed consolidation of the village and rural school districts. Pe­ titions have been signed by a major­ ity of the voters in six of the eleven districts. The B’Ulding. The sub-layer of the fire proof con­ crete roof was poured and the brick layers have completed most of the brick parapet. The walls wil be cap­ ped with a stone coping. Raggle blocks are used in place of the (rid style tin flashing for the purpose of protecting the joint between the ver­ tical outside wall and the concrete roof. The use of raggle blocks is con­ sidered one of the most modem ways of building so as to insure low up­ keep costs. Interior walls between class rooms are constructed of gypsum blocks, known by the trade name of Pyro­ bar. Plaster will be applied directly to the Pyrobar walk The finished construction will be light, strong, sound and fire proof. Glazed brick for the wainscoting on the east side of the gymnasium and parts of the lower corridor are in place. Enough of the brick was plac­ ed to enable the visitor to gain an idea of neat and sanitary appearance of the building. There will be no cracks, ledges, or other places to col­ lect and hide dirt.

Ended In “Age Old Dream.” An appreciative audience greeted “Major Bowes" (Mrs. J. C. Furniss) and “his amateur hour” at the M. E. church Friday night. It was a repe­ tition in part of the clever program presented-recently by a S. E. Division of the Aid for their luncheon enter­ tainment, and was given under the auspices of the general Aid. Appear­ ing on the program this time were Miss French and i'dss Berry with an “intricate” piano duet and gum­ chewing contest: Mrs. M. E. Hoyt re­ peated her accordion selection on the “open and close hatrack;" Mrs. Hale Sackett, “cullud singer" and very ner­ vous, sang "Roses of Picardy;” Leon­ ard Kane was the whistling wonder; and Mrs. F. G. Fultz, singer, were or­ dered to report at “units;” Mrs. Ev­ ans tapped a tune on water glasses as a novelty; BiUy Hecker was the vio­ linist of the evening; Mrs. Will Dean was the prinia donna on the Bowes’ program; Patty Adell Mater, tap lancer, and Chester Calkins, harmon­ ica player, were assigned to Bowes’ units; Mrs. Frank Boies, reader, an "old lady and deaf” wbo was “up front’’ with the performers so she could “hear," was asked if she could contribute anything to the program and she said she could tell a story, which she did, the story of "Sally Ann and the Church Carpet," which made a very pleasing “last number."

Annual Fish Supper Is Record Breaker Barry County Rod And Gun Club En­ tertains Thousand People Thurs­ day Evening. The Barry county Rod and Gun club is a live wire organization, with an energetic corps of officers and direc­ tors. This much was evidenced by the splendid success of the annual fish supper held at the new county rood garage in Hastings on Thursday night of last week. The crowd attending the feed num­ bered in the neighborhood of a thou­ sand, a record-breaking gathering for the county, and said by conservation officers who attended to be the larg­ est crowd of its type ever to be as­ sembled in the state. And it was handled in a pleasing manner with plenty of room at the long tables and ample “eats," over half a ton of Lake Michigan perch forming the main item on the menu. Following the feed. Dr. Burton A. Perry, president of the club, introduc­ ed Chas. H. Osborn, who acted as master of ceremonies. Short talks were given by Hon. W. W. Potter, Chief Justice of the Michigan Su­ preme court and a former Barry coun­ ty sportsman, and by representatives from the State Conservation Depart­ ment and the state police. Harry Heilman, radio sports an­ nouncer from Detroit, was the high­ light of the program, and, as might be expected, his talk centered on the national pastime in general, and the Detroit Tigers in particular. A past member of the Tigers, and in close touch with, them through his dally broadcasts of the games, he was not alarmed at the poor showing the team made on its eastern trip, and stated that he believed there was nothing wrong with the club which tw’o weeks of home play could not remedy. He predicted that the closing weeks of the season would see the contenders for the American league pennant di­ vided into two far separated groups, with Boston, Cleveland. New York and Detroit in the upper bracket, and any one of the four having a chance at the flag. Greenberg, he expected, would be back in the line-up within a few weeks, lending additional punch to the Tiger offensive, and completing the infield combination of Owen, Rogell. Gehringer and Greenberg, which he gave Charley Gehringer, the Fowleville boy, credit for developing to championship caliber. Another interesting feature of the evening was an exhibition of horizon­ tal bar work and tumbling given by the Muskegon Y. M. C. A. gymnastic team, a group of clever performers. The program concluded with sound motion pictures of the world series ball games of 1935 between the De­ troit Tigers and Chicago Cubs. Nashville was well represented at the gathering, nearly a hundred tic­ kets being sold in this community. Wayne Wilson, 17. Sheridan, one of four boys to meet death Friday whUe homeward bound from the state meeting of the Future Farmers of ■Xmerica at East Lansing, was the youngest of three sons of Mr. and Mrs.JRoy Wilscn, who are cousins of the L. W. Feighner and E. L. Kane families. Word of the fatal accident came to them Friday night, and Mr. and Mrs. Kane left Saturday morning for the Wilson home. Wayne, wbo would have graduated in June from Carson City high school, was one o? a party of 21. all members of the Corson City Future Fanners club, who had gone to East Lansing Thursday to act as the stock and grain judging team. Two cars, each carrying seven boys, were racing on US-21, near Fowlervffie. when the bumpers locked as the other car forged ahead, loosened it­ self and went on. but the driver of the car in which Wayne was riding, was unable to regain control of his car, and it veered, into a bridge abutment, nearly the entire right side of the car bei?g ripped open by the impact A fifth boy in the car was believed near death with fractures of both legs; an­ other was treated for minor injuries, arid the driver was unhurt.

The voucher was turned over to the auditor general and checks will be mailed to the counties immediately.

The McNitt township road law passed in 1931 provided that the counties take over the township road mileages at the rate of 20 per cent a year. A firstyear appropriation of $2,000,000 was allocated to the counties to help them shoulder the burden. This amount was increased by $500,000 annually, until the present yearly appropiation is $4,000,000.

The closing meeting of the Woman’s Literary club of Nashville for the year was held at the Putnam Public Libra­ ry on Wednesday afternoon of >ast week. At one o’clock the club mem­ bers assembled for a very delightful pioneer luncheon. Guests were ser­ ved at small tables, decorated with spring flowers. ‘‘Pioneer’ food was served by the committee, in charge of Mrs. Ida Wright After a brief business meeting, at which Mrs. Chester Smith explained the new year books, a Mother's Day program was presented, the couplet for the day being, "Mother Love is al­ ways the most beautiful of the joys.” The first paper of the afternoon was "Musical Fads of Yesterday and To­ day." by Mrs. Floyd Everts. Mrs. Everts contrasted the music of the eighties with that of the 1920’s. She told of the hand-pumped organs in the churches, of “Brother Charlie's*’ accordlan, mouth organ, or jews-barp of forty years ago. "Ragtime came to town in the gay nineties," she said, “with its accompanying cakewalk." From the days of ragtime. Mrs. Ev­ erts took the club members through the jazz period of today with its pho­ nograph and radio. Bringing her talk down to date, she told of the thou­ sands of opportunities for hearing and learning lovely music today through Uie radio, the public schools and the movie theaters. Mrs. Gail Lykins il­ lustrated Mrs. Everts’ talk by ting­ ing a song of each period mentioned. The club members responded to the Great Mass Meeting roll call by giving names of famous On Sunday, May 24 mothers.

Another pioneer member of the club Mr?. Frank Furchis, took the club back with her to the days when a few Indians lived here, when there was no railroad, no school, no churches. She told of watching the first train go through the town in the days when there were very few houses to ob­ struct the view. The music for the afternoon was in charge of Mrs. Clarence Mater. The first musical number was a solo, "My Mother Has No Girl to Do the Dish­ es." by Courier Taft, with Mrs. John Purchis at the piano. The song waa well received. Marian Hecker and E’nor Jane Purchis sang a very de­ lightful song, "hi the Island of Ja­ pan.” The girts were dressed in Jap­ anese costumes and carried large Japanese parasols. They were very pretty and graceful in their drill Mrs. Clarence Mater accompanied them. As a surprise number. Mrs. Henry Ford, Jr., sang "Sonny Boy". This KEV.

ASKS ALL CITIZENS TO USE MICHIGAN’S CENTENNIAL STAMP All citizens of Michigan are urged , to use the Michigan Centennial post­ age stamps for correspondence, parti­ cularly during the early months of the tourist and resort business of the state. In the following resolution un- ’ animously adopted by the Michigan Centennial Joint committee: "In view of the vast importance of the tourist and resort business of t Michigan to its economic welfare, and the fact that the United States Post Office Department has agreed to sup­ ply all Michigan postmasters with Michigan Centennial postage stamps requested until the close of the Cen­ tennial celebration Jahuary 26, 1937,. therefore be it Resolved that all citizens of Mich­ igan be requested through their local newspapers to use Michigan Ccnteaiaj stamps for all letters and other mailing matter so far as practicable to help advertise Michigan's great re­ creational resources that may be en­ joyed in connection with the various local Centennial celebrations through­ out the state during the summer of 1936."

Rock Western City for Several Days Left: Destruction wrought by the Helena,Mont, earthquakes. Below, left: A tent camp established for Helena families whose homes were destroyed. Below: Undaunted, this Montana city undertakes reconstruction. Telephone service was maintained without serious interruption, despite 700 telephone receivers knocked off their hooka and the failure of tho city light and power supply. As severe earth shocks damaged Helena, Mont, telephone operators who were off duty or on vacation re- ■ turned voluntarily to the switchboard, knowing that a flood of calle would swamp the operators on duty*. ' Operators were also brought In from other cities to help In tho emergency. i During the series of severe earth­ quake shocks at Helena, MonL, last October, telephone operators stuck to their poets and remained on their job for hours on end. stopping only to snatch a little sleep when they could be spared from the switch­ board, then taking up their duties again. Their calm, friendly, reassuring voices helped much in quieting the nerves of many people, and great credit is given them by civic offi­ cials, citizens and the press for the splendid service they performed in the emergency. Not only was this service rendered by the regular op­ erators, but others off duty and on vacation and former employees of the company volunteered for work, to help out in the greatest volume of telephone calls, both local and long distance, in the history of the State. A Series of Shocks Friday evening. October 18, 1935, will long be remembered by the residents of Helena and vicinity. Earthquake shocks had begun about midnight on October 13. Small trem­ ors had continued irregularly until, by the afternoon of the 15th, they had become quite sharp. On Friday night, October 18, a longer tremor shook down a number of chimneys throughout the city and caused other minor damage. A corps of tele­ phone operators hurried to the cen­ tral office to assist those on duty. The rush of calls was quickly cared for, and some of tho extra oper­ ators returned to’thelr homes. City WaZWithout Light, At 9:50 P. M. the earth began to shake violently. This continued with Increasing intensity. Then it was that seconds seemed an eternity, and the city was thrown into a panic by the violence of the movements of the earth. No one knew what was coming next and nearly everyone was expecting the worsL Before the series of quakes had ceased, the city was in darkness, and the people who hadn’t rushed to the street or driven away in their can* made use of their telephones. For a time, the switchboards were aglow with line-signal lights. To add to the confusion at the central oftce. the tremors had dislodged up- She Braved Quake With Flashlight Immediately after the worst quake in the aeries of earth tremora st Helena, MonL, last Oc­ tober, when the city was without light and her own home had been seriously damaged, a telephone operator hurried out on the street to go to the central office to help during the emergency that she knew had arisen. The city was in total darkness and panic was in the air, but ahe groped her way several blocks to a corner where a man was standing holding a flashlight "Will you help me get to the telephone office?" she asked. "What do you want to go there for?" the man asked. "I’m an operator and I’m going to work,” she replied. "-------- ! If you're going to work at a time like this you can have my flashlight” the man said in amazement as ho proffered the UghL She took it and, with the light it afforded, arrived safely at the office. She later advertised in the newspaper in an effect to return the light to its owner, but was unable to locate him. ward of 700 telephone receivers throughout the city. When the re­ ceivers ware thrown off their hooks, this caused permanent signals on the switchboards which could not be distinguished from those of call­ ing subscribers. Emergency service was estab­ lished immediately for hospitals and police and fire departments, and soon enough operators had appeared voluntarily to cover both local and toll switchboards. The operators refused to leave, and ever- local and toll position was maintained throughout the night Not only did tho operators re­ spond in this emergency, but the men of the p.ant department and employees of other departments were called upon to keep the serv­ ice in operation to the limit of hu­ man ability. The plant men, In co­ operation with the traffic depart­ ment soon had the permanent signals cleared from the switch­ board. Some difficulty was encoun­ tered with the central office bat­ teries, and numerous drop wires were torn from shaking buildings and residences. When the city pow­ er and light system failed, the tele­ phone company's emergency power equipment was placed in service to operate die switchboards. A Great Increase In Calls Many people sat In their cars all night and a considerable part of the population rushed for the open prairie. There were caravans of ten or twelve cars circled around bon­ fires on the open prairie and many tents were pitched In vacant lota. After the first fright people began to use the long distance telephone service, and when news and radio bulletins were released, the Inward toll traffic took on huge proportions. Operators came to Helena from An­ aconda, Bozeman. Great Falls, Dil­ lon. Fort Peck and Livingston. Meanwhile, the ominous rum­ blings continued all that Friday night and Saturday, with a tremor every few minute*. Other tremor* followed later in the month, and on October 31, a very rough and vio­ lent quake lasted about twenty sec­ onds. This was the most destructive of all, because of the weakened con­ dition of many homes and build­ ings. Again there came a flood of telephone traffic, and again it was neceaaary to call upon out-of-town operators to assist tn handling ft. Telephone Building Stood Firm While all this was going on, tha central office building where the op­ erators work was rocked violently; but save for cracks in a fine and numerous cracks in the plaster in­ side the office, the building was un­ damaged. After the first warning, extra means of leaving the building were provided, in addition to the usual exits. Including a special dou­ ble door that was Installed in place of a large window In the operating room.

Our Farmers Efforts of the federal Are Owners, government to reduce . farm tenancy by loan­ ing tenants money to buy land has met with little success in the north­ ern states. Particularly In Michigan an interesting state of affairs has been revealed. There is relatively lit­ tle farm tenancy in this state. Tnere are 196,517 farms in Mich­ igan. More than 132,700 of these are operated by full, owners and 25,300 by part owners. Only 37,334 are operate ed exclusively by tenants. , That means that considerably more than 80 per cent, of the farm folks of Michigan own their homes. In the east central states more than half the farms are operated by ten­ ants and the average throughout the country is more than 42 per cent Michigan farmers have borrowed a good deal of government money, but for the most part they have used it Clean Up The On Saturday occurred to refinance their debts to get better Village. the clean-up drive of interest rates.—Detroit News. rubbish, ashes, etc., from the street curbs and alleys, the Ask the average Amer­ accumulation from a long severe win­ Gentleman? ican if he is a gentle­ ter, and possibly longer.

Through deferred hopes, disappointment, and suffering, E. A. Hanes, Castleton May Mater, Castleton many are now, by alow degrees, turn- sibility for right thinking and doing. Today, through the teachings of Christian Science, it is seen more clearly than ever before that salvation is individual. Paul stressed this need when he wrote (Philippians 2:12, 13): "Work out your own solvation with fear and trembling. For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.” Is not this a clear indication that we should rely on our individual under­ standing of God, our spiritual con­ sciousness, to find work, supply, health, happiness, and prosperity? True self-reliance is not based on anything we may call our own, but on all we reflect of God, the infinite Mind. It is reliance on Truth which docs away with reliance on' the false vent us from having legitimate, use­ ful, remunerative activity. ,, There is Important work for each and all of God’s children. Clearly realizing thia individually results in individual activity, just as realization of the ever-pref?ence of health heals a MKallod aide body. A. we work from a ffl**1**')"1 basis, wp find that the spiritual is the actual; and this realization will be manifested in our human affairs. At this point, it may be considered a fair question to ask whether such an individual mental procedure would help the many thousands that are now out of work to find useful employ­ ment ? In the light of Christian Sci­ ence it can be answered that in its measure individual demonstration helps all mankind. Actually there is no lack of work, because there is no lack of ideas, and ideas ore always active. Through an earnest study of Christian Science we are able to un­ derstand that demand and supply are proved equal by the utilisation of right ideas. Mrs. Eddy writes (Mis­ cellaneous Writings, p. 307), "God gives you His spiritual ideas, and in turn, they give you dally supplies." Spiritual ideas are discerned thru spiritual sense. Materially there may be apparent barrenness or seeming vacuity, but in spiritual consciousness is on ev^-preaent abundance of right ideas, which in turn supply all things needful.

Pedigree names in sires are not a guarantee of high dairy production records, srcordi’ ng to A C. Baltzer. extension specialist at Michigan State college, East Lansing. A survey of Michigan herds con­ ducted last fall by the U. 8. Depart­ ment of Agriculture, the results of which previously have not been made public, reveals that high herd produc­ tion records ae gained and maintained by. culling rather than breeding alone. “We have long suspected that breeding blood is not copyrighted tn any particular family or strain of cat­ tle,” Mr. Baltzer says. "It exists freely everywhere and will be uncov­ ered by employing the monthly herd testing program.” The importance of .the survey lies in the fact that it goes contrary to the popular kiea that the bull is the most importer! single factor in secur­ ing high milk production records. "The bull is an accessory and not the most important factor in improv­ ing records.” he says. ‘ High produc­ ing daughters are very ‘ important We have tested this idea with the col­ lege herd and have raised the herd’s annual milk production Individual av­ erage from 268 pounds in 1928 to 400 pounds mainly by placing emphisis on culling rather than breeding.” Mr. Baltzer stresses the Importance of keeping yearly production records and culling out Inferior producers. He also believes that farmers should swap bulls and keep records of their daughters. COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS.

The Human Side Of Resettlement “llelp People To Help Themselves.” This is a story of a woman's trou­ bles, and the way in which the Reset­ tlement Administration came to the rescue. Mrs. J— had inherited a heavily mortgaged farm in Murray county, Minnesota. The mortgage was a burden, of course, but it happened that Mr. J—, an architect had been having a hard time to get sufficient businn— in recent years to support his family. So the house and the acres with it seemed to Mrs. J— worth making a fight for as a home for her husband, herself and her five children. The man of the family knew that he was not a farmer and never would be one, and realized that it was a much wiser plan for him to continue in his attempt to make a living in the line where he bad had some exper­ ience. The mother of the family, however, had been reared in the country and bad always kept in touch with farm problems. With her nineteen year old son as first assistant, she took on the farming job. It was obvious from the first that Mother and Son were up against serious odds. They had too little machinery, livestock, and other equipment What little they had was covered by a chattel mortgage. The Federal Land Bank, bolding the mortgage on the farm, much preferred not to foreclose on the property, if anything could be done to keep the mortgage a good Investment. Officials there called the attention of the Re­ settlement Administration officers to the cue. A rehabilitation program was drawn up for this family, whereby the chattel mortgage, on the verge of be­ ing foreclosed, was refinanced, also an additional loan at a low rate of inter­ est was made to provide necessary horses, cows, sheep and machinery so that the lady and her son can carry on and meet their obligations. With this new set-up, the Federal Land Bank oLicials feel sure that they are justified la extending the mortgage on the real property. "There is good reason to expect that this case will work out happily for everybody concerned,*’ says the State Director of Rural Rehabilita­ tion. 8. H. Rutford.’ "The 'good neighbor* principle, applied with sense, not sentimentality, is the heart of the rehabilltatior. work of the Re­ settlement Administration.” —About 600 postoffice clerks and carriers are expected to attend the annual convention in Battle Creek May 29-30.

She says parents can judge when to begin teaching good hab'Ls by the first appearance of bad habits. —Talk of a special election in Ionia to reconsider the 15-mill tax limita­ tion was revived, and several council members, disheartened at the tax al­ location commission's tentative rat® of 6 mills, said they would favor a petition for such a vote. Council had petitioned for 8.4 mills.

Today the ambitious young man who enlists in the navy not only gets adventure and travel, but he also ^ets tochical education which he can use to advantage if he should leave the service, or he can advance as rapidly as he could in civilian life. The navy wants braLn ai well as brawn Wrestling With Fair problem*. er of agriculture, James F. Thomsen, worked out some of the problems vex­ ing the management of the Upper Peninsula Fair at Escanaba. They re­ ceive from the state (20,000 a year. The sum for 1936 is necessary to meet their present indebtedness. So it has been decided to advance the Fair (15,­ 000 and spread the entire $60,000 al­ lowed for three years over four. With proper management it is believed that by that time it can become thoroughly solvent It is expected that Herbert J. Rushton, Escanaba attorney, will be the new manager. In the meantime the state is being urged to take over the old Western Michigan Fair property at Comstock Fork just out of Grand Rapids and re-establish a Fair there.

Each man in the service renders tribute to his mother, and ev­ ery man who can be spared from bls duties is given leave so that be may visit his mother on that day. Services are held on board each ship and sta­ tion in the navy, and all men are urg­ ed to remember their mothers by telegram or letter, if impossible to visit her. Marine Disaster. One of the greatest marine dkastera was on the Mississippi River when on April 27th, 1865, the oteamboat Sultana blew up seven miles above Memphis, Tennessee, and sank with a loss of 1,450 lives. They were all Union soldiers. Navy In Addis Ababa. Four navy enlisted men, all radig, operations, some time ago were de­ tailed to the American Legation at Addis Ababa to keep communications open between the American Minister to Ethiopia and the State Depart­ ment at Washington. How well they carried out their as­ signment came to light soon after the Ethiopian armies were routed by the Italians, and Addis Ababa left in hands uf drink crazed natives, who proceeded to loot and pillage the city. The American Legation had practi­ cally no protection and the nearest help was at the British Legation, three miles away. To make that trip was certain death and there was no way of getting in communication with the British Minister for help. So they radioed to Washington tell­ ing of their plight Soon the radios and cables were humming between Washington and London, and from London to the British Legation at Addis Ababa, from where a detail of British Sikhs troops was sent to ef­ fect a rescue. New C-ln-C U. S. Fleet. On or about June 24, Vice Admiral Arthur J. Hepburn will relieve Ad­ miral Joseph Reeve as Commander, U. S. Fleet. Upon assuming com­ mand of the fleet Admiral Hepburn will be elevated to the rank of full admlra (temporary). The U. S. bat­ tleship Pennsylvania is the flagship of the fleet The U. S. S. Northampton is at the Navy Yard, Puget Sound, Washing­ ton, for her annual overhaul. She will be there about three months. Admiral Farragut was given com­ mand of a ship at the age of twelve years. He entered the navy at the age of nine. It is estimated that five torpedoes will sink a battleship providing they hit in vital spots. The U. 8. S. Alabama burned 57 ships while under the command of Captain Scmmes. The U. S. navy has held gunnery practice since before the War of 1812. There were but 13,339 men in the XJ. S. navy in January. 1884. The U. S. S. Tennessee of 1866 did only tew years active service; the cost of this vessel was (3,380.000. Admiral David Farragut, then a commander, became the first Com­ mandant of the Mare Island Navy Yard on Sept. 16, 1854. The Mare Is­ land Navy Yard is about 27 miles from San Francisco. California . Lansing Comment. By T. E. Johnson. Attacks Policies. Governor Frank D. Fitzgerald ad­ dressed the Women's Republican club of Massachusetts on Wednesday of this week. In his 30-minute talk he discussed the problems Involved in balancing the state budget and des­ cribed the way it had been done in Michigan. He then took up the larg­ er issues. rhe governor declared that the record alone would determine whether he had been a good or bad governor and that the same would apply to the national aaminlstration. He said that the weary millions of unemployed who still tread our streets speak of the situation in the strongest terms. He also pointed to the greatest na­ tional debt in our history and to the fact that confidence has not been re­ stored. This be said is the record of the party in power. “The people," said the governor, "have learned that they cannot fish prosperity from the bottom of a pork barrel." He went on to say, “The present political situation in the coun­ try today is tailored to order for the Republican party. That is my frank opinion . The party cannot fail and it will not fail if the men and women who guide its destiy will deal in coM bore facte." The governor ringingly declared that a new regime was needed in which the Henry Fords and not the Rex Tugwells should have their inningr. The Republican platform could be staple, only a few clear statements of policy which should be governed by hard common sense and not theories. Big Convention. The Democratic convention held this week in Grand Rapids will prob­ ably be the biggest in the party’s ’.lstory in Michigan. The members are meeting determined to plan a come­ back following the defeat of two years ago. This is written -too early to give the story but it is certain that a strong list of candidates ’vill be pre­ sented at the primaries and that the national adminstration will receive the strongest possible endorsement. Efforts will be made to keep all in­ terparty strife from the floor. As one leader said, "We have enough to do to fight the Republicans without quar­ reling among ourselves.” ray D. VanWagoner, state highway commissioner, is developing some 12 more roadside improvement projects; they arc scattered throughout the state in some 12 countie. The idea is to use natural conditions such as springs, rivers, lakes, forests, etc., andJby beautifying them to add to the pleasure of the travelling public. Ta bles, seats and other conveniences will be added so that the tourist need not go to some distant park in order to enjoy a rest. It Is estimated that about (50,000 will be spent in these activities during the comL-^g season. Abolish Or License. A growing sentiment is discernable about the state capiLol demanding that the "bookies" who accept bets on horse races should either be abolish­ ed or licensed. There are known to be 400 of them in Detroit alone and officials believe that 60U would be nearer the right figure. Their exist­ ence cuts down the ‘rack attendance and there is no revenue from them whatsoever. The pari-mutuels are now permitted to do business and pay a percentage to the state. The racing states, as a rule, are now taking such a course. It is said that the Increase in receipts has in every case been very marked. To Become State Activities. During the past three years there has grown up a dual system of educa­ tion In the various states. The regu­ lar school activities have of course remained under state control or super­ vision. The federal government ir the meantime, through its several agencies as the National Youth Ad­ ministration and the various PWA ventures, has gradually developed an­ other set of school activities. This has led to a great deal of friction and in many states, although not in Mich­ igan. much dissatisfaction has result­ ed. Now a strong movement is on to turn all the educational bureaus over to the several state departments of instruction. U. S. MARINE CORPS TO ACCEPT MORE MEN The U. S Marine Corps is now ac­ cepting young men for enlistment. Upon enlistment, these young men will be sent to the Marine Corps Base at San Diego, California, for training. The Marine Corps offers steady employment with an opportunity for Using Brine On Roads. promotion, free education, travel and The state highway department will adventure. continue to use salt brine as a dust The Marines travel to the four cor­ layer on the gravel roads of the state ners of the earth.

Automobile accidents took the lives of 416 persons in Michigan during the first four months compared with 462 deaths over a similar period last year and~445 in 1934.

Anglers Asked To Make Creel Cards Cards Are Distributed By Local Con­ servation Officers Or Secured From Lansing. Anglers interested In certain lakes and streams can help themselves in creating better fishing in those wat­ ers by diligence in making out creel census cards for the Department of Conservation. If fish are running small In certain waters the census reports will indi­ cate this. If catches average too small to provide good sport', the fish­ eries workers will learn of the neces­ sity for additional plantings. Creel census cards arc distributed by local Conservation Officers and may be secured from the Lansing of­ fice of the department They may be turned over to the officer when filled out or sent to the Lansing office. On these forms the angler indicates in what waters he has fished; how many hours he fished; the kind of bait used; how many and what size fish he caught and he has the oppor­ tunity to make any comments he wishes. The cards will be classified bo that all comments on every lake and stream may be studied. The in­ formation given helps to determine the number and species of fish that will be planted In the waters men­ tioned. Last year more than 30,000 Michigan anglers made out creel-cen­ sus forms.

HA VE YOU SEEN THE SIGHTS IN To many people, the ideal vacation is one devoted to sightseeing. In order to enjoy themselves fully, such vaca­ tionists require three things: Sights worth seeing; something to travel in; and good roads to get there. Vere-few parts of the Union ofier as mucl/in these respects as the State of Michigan. Here are many spots well worth visiting — historic buildings and grounds, interesting cities, and open country of unsurpassed scenic beauty. The journey itself becomes a separate pleasure, a real addition to the joys of vacation. Splendid highways, fine lake liners, trains, buses, planes—all these means of transporta­ tion, comfortable and economical, stand at the service of those who are planning to see the sights. Have you considered Michigan for your own sightseeing? Have you told your out-of-State friends of the excep­ tional advantages here?,If so, you have done them a favor — and promoted good will for the Wolverine State. As our part in such promotion, this series of advertisements is being pub­ lished throughout the State of Michi­ gan by an organization that can prosper only as the other citizens of Michigan prosper.

On Tuesday evening of last week the members of the utilities commis­ sion and those who had served when Paul Voorhies was attorney general, gave a dinner In honor of Ed. Billtzke, member of the attorney general's staff, who was recently promoted to the office of judge in the Ogemaw cir­ cuit.. Judge Bilitzke is one of the most popular members of the judi­ ciary and despite his age is confident­ ly expected to prove one of the best members of the state judiciary. Trial For Murder. The state is preparing to press at the June term of court, the charge of murder against "Gypsy Bob Harquette State prison, where he is ser­ ving a long sentence as a habitual of­ fender under the present law. About 12 years ago he was said to have been per,” who is now Incarcerated in Marthe ringleader in a prison outbreak which cost the life of Warden Catlin and caused serious injuries to several others. ■ The reason for pressing the present charge is to prevent Harper being re­ leased under the parole provisions of the exlstdnt statute. Attacks Opposition. The Republicans of the tenth dis­ trict held a rally on Monday evening of this week at Bay City. The gover­ nor was present and spoke vigorously of his administration. He defended his course in balancing the budget and also discussed the problems of civil service.

Lansing Comment. Destroyer Makes Quick Dash Thru Panama Canal. The U. S. S. Manley on Dec. 6th broke the record in making a quick passage through the Panama Canal. She was on the Pacific side of the canal when she received orders to transit the canal with all possible speed to investigate a gun runner off the coast of Honduras. The battleship Nevada was launch­ ed on July 11. 1914, at Quincy, Mass. Her cost was about $13,000,000. Pres­ ident Roosevelt was then the assist­ ant Secretary of the Navy and he at­ tended the launching ceremony. As a token of its interest and pride in the U. S. S. Nevada, the state of Nevada presented the ship with an unusually beautiful silver service, to­ gether with a silk national emblem and a Nevada state flag. The state has continued its interest in the ship, and on Dec. 15, 1934. a fine group of representative Nevada citizens came to San Francisco, Cal., and aboard the ship to celebrate Nevada Day. Navy Dept. Founded April SO, 1798. Millions For Defense; Not One Cent For Tribute. The disposal of navy ships after the Revolutionary war left American shipping unprotected. Consequently, the Barbary States of North Africa commenced capturing American ships and holding the crews for ransom. In 1794 Congress authorized the build­ ing of six ships to protect our ship ping. The bill passed the House of Representative by a majority of two votes, having been strongly opposed on the grounds that the nation could not afford a navy and that it would be cheaper to pay tribute to the Bar­ bary Stales or to hire another nation to protect our shipping. Before the ships were built, France and England, who were at war with each other, be­ gan plundering American shipping. A treaty was made with England; but France continued seizing ships even in American waters and ports and threatened war unless paid a large tribute. Popular American feeling, which was expressed in the words. "Millions for defense; not one cent tor tribute,” led to the building up of a navy and the establishment of a By T. E. Johnson. To Solve Problem. In discussing the matter of the sale of lands on which taxes were delin­ quent Gus T. Hartman, deputy ruditor general, said last week that it is probable that his department would recommend to the next session of leg­ islature a change in the tax laws giv­ ing to the counties the entire task of selling property for delinquent taxes. Mr. Hartman pointed out that as matters stand at present the enure tax goes to local units and that the state is not at all interested in the matter. So far as the taxes of 1933 and prior years are concerned, the state would only be concerned in about ten per cent of the total. There­ fore there is no reason for it acting as the selling agency. It will be remembered that just be­ fore the May sale was scheduled to take place the supreme court held that the .act of 1935 was unconstitu­ tional and therefore the old act re­ quiring the publication of descriptions was still in force. This meant of course that the sale as advertised was entirely out and that new measures would have to be taken for another sale next year. However this would involve a great deal of work and ex­ pense and the auditor general will not undertake it unless the legislature fails to act at the next session, which is unthinkable. The basis for declar­ ing it unconstitutional was the fact that the body of the act contained matter not found in the title and so was not in conformity with that dochment. Mr. Hartmann forther pointed out that there is no longer any machinery available for disposing of so-called state bids on lands sold. It has been the custom in the past to bid In ir. the name of the state any properties on whlcir there was no other bid. This gave the state a certain title which it would sell at any time to anyone applying, who paid the claim plus the three-quarters of one per cent a month which is required as a penalty. The buyer would then inherit all the rights of the state to a tax deed at the end of one year. This is no longer provided for in the law and so there is nothing the state can do except to bold the property In- NEW PRICES AS LOW AS Q,T u‘‘tCUTS .

Was Vil­ lage Trustee; Active Also Frater­ nally And In Civic Matter*. Lee Bailey, resident all his life of Maple Grove and Nashville, seasoned and valued member of the Village ’ Council, and prominent in fraternal and civic work of the village, passed away early Friday morning at his home on Queen street, Nashville, of pneumonia, after an illness of only a few days, leaving a devoted sister, Minnie, who resided with him. more distant relatives and a host of friends and a wide circle of acquaint­ ances, all of whom rerget his passing. The son of Charles and Sarah Bai­ ley. he was bom June 23, 1870, on the farm in Maple Grove upon which he grew to manhood, and which contin­ ued to be his home for 37 years. After finishing the country school, he and his sister Minnie attended the high school at Hastings, later both teaching for a time. In 1908 the farm was sold and a home purchased in Nashville, and later the present home was acquired. Mr. Bailey was employed in Jack­ son for a year, and then he entered the C. L. Glasgow store, where he re­ mained until he began the long years of service for the L. H. Cook Lumber & Coal Yards. Ten years ago he was seriously ill, and since has patiently carried on with falling health. On the Sunday when he became ill, he in company with Otto Lass, decor­ ated the graves of their departed lodge brothers in four cemeteries. Ho returned home ill, and after four days passed away. He had been a member of the Coun­ cil for some time and at the time of his death was president pro tern, and was serving on the Street, Light and Parks committees. In Masonry he was a Past Master of Nashville lodge, F. 4 a. M. a pres­ ent captain of the host of the Royal Arch Masons, and a member of the Royal and Select Masoas of Hastings, and a member of Lourel chapter. Or­ der of the Eastern Star. He had been a Mason for 27 years, and a Knight of Pythias for 36 years, being a Past Chancellor of the local lodge. He had been active in the Berry­ ville church in earlier years, and was the present head of the Barryvilla Home-Coming association, a yearly affair at the church. Dependable in service in all thesa and in civic affairs, he will be greatly missed by his associates and for the "helping hand" with which he was free to those who needed his assist­ ance. It might be said with truth, that his acquaintances usually became his friends. While his sister, broken by the vigil and his passing, lay very ill tn the home of her nearby friends, Mr. and Mrs. Will L. Gibsun, the funeral ser­ vices were conducted at 2:30 Sunday afternoon from the Bailey home, with Rev. Myron E. Hoyt officiating, with an aisle of Masonic brothers for the remains as they were taken from the home preparatory to removal to the Berryville cemetery, where under the auspices of Nashville lodge, F. & A. m. Leslie Feighner impressively pre­ sented the beautiful ritualistic burial service of the order, with Masonle pall-bearers. Among the relatives and friends from away present for the services, were Mrs. Minda Mudge and son, Father John Day of Three Oaks; Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Dutmer of Grand Rapids; Arthur Holmes and Mr. and Mrs. Asa Wilcox of Detroit; Mr. and Mrs. Earl Mudge of Hastings; Mr. and Mrs. Bert Walker of Chesaning; Mr. and Mrs. Morgan and son of Lans­ ing; Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Crandoll of Bedford and their daughter and hus­ band, Mr. and Mrs. Cowles of Battle Creek ; Miss Elizabeth Gibson and Mr. Routaon of Kalamazoo; Miss Electa Furnlss of Battle Creek; Mr. and Mr» H.

Weather Has Its In­ fluence On Anglers Claim That There Is A Right And Wrong Time When Flak Bite Best When the weather isn't ‘’right,” there’s just no use going fishing, many old-tlmera declare. It's a tra­ dition of the angling sport and seems to be borne out to a certain ex­ tent by the data obtained from 3,594 fishermen on Fife lake in Grand Tra­ verse county during the season of 1935. The Institute for Fisheries Re­ search, which compiled the reports, believes a correlation between the fish caught and weather conditions is in­ dicated. and declares that fish, in gen­ eral were best caught on this lake when the weather was mild, when there was a light wind and when the sky was clear. These three factors seemed to predominate in the reports. Weather conditions under which each species seemed to bite best were: Large-mouthed bass — mild, light wind, rain. Small-mouthed bass — cold, little preference with respect to wind and cloudiness. Rock bass—mild calm, clear. Bit very poorly in cold weather. Bluegill—Mild, windy, clear. Bit best in rainy weather. Sunfish—Warm, light wind, clear. Bit least in cold weather. Perch—Mild, light wind, rain. Poor­ est when cold and when calm. Wall-eyes—Mild or warm, calm, clear. Northern pike—Cold. Number tak­ en were too few to show other prefer­ ences. Bullhead—No apparent preferences. Number too few to permit other pre­ ferences. Evangelical Church. Preaching at 10 a. m. S. S. at 11 a. m.

Food Center HASTINGS OPEN EVENINGS UNTIL 9:00 P. M. Finding of the cause' of blotchy rip­ ening, mysterious greenhouse tomato disease which has defied the efforts of British scientists for 20 years, is an­ nounced by H. L. Seaton, young re­ earch assistant at Michigan State col­ lege, East Lansing. Seaton, a graduate of the Univer­ sity of Missouri, received his maater'a degree at Michigan State college and worked five years on this problem in an effort to eliminate the disease which costs Michigan greenhouse growers thousands of dollars annually. “Blotchy ripening occurs particu­ larly during the months of May, June and July," he says. “It is due to the failure of certain areas in the outer fruit wall to ripen and color normal­ ly. resulting in green or colorless spots appearing on ripe fruit" The conclusions, tested over five years during which more than 150,000 records of individual fruits have been kept, are now being tried out com­ mercially in Michigan greenhouses, following successful results at college hothouses. The disease, which sometimes ruins or makes culls of as much as 50 per cent of the pickings, affected 35 per cent of the college hothouse crop when Mr. Seaton began his experiments in 1931. Since then inferior fruit has been reduced to less than five percent Good correlation between high tem­ perature, low humidity, and blotchiness gave Mr. Seaton his first bint as to the cause of the disease, which British scientists laid to lack of pot­ ash. The disease can be controlled by increasing the fruit per unit of leaf foliage through special growing prac­ tices and by increasing air humidity through overhead Irrigation systems when the temperature soars he saya. Are men better fishermen than wo­ men? Michigan's fisheries authorities are­ n’t attempting to answer that one. However, here are some interesting figures in point compiled by the In­ stitute for Fisheries Research from data collected by CCC men during the season of 1935. The CCC men obtained records from 3,594 anglers on Fife lake in Grand Traverse county. Of this number 763 or 21.2 per cent were from women. After compiling the reports-of catch­ es made in these cases, R. W. Eschmeyer of the Institute has this to say of the prowess of women a anglers. “With the exception of three weeks, the women took on the average more fish per hour than the men, except two weeks when each took the same number." In the case of Pleasant lake, Oak­ land county, the record varies. Of 2,526 anglers from whom data were obtained 2,162 wer men, 363 were women. The compilation shows that on the average, the men invariably caught more fish per hour than the women for all weeks except one, the fish caught by the men were as large or larger than those taken by women.

Nolan & Son, Detroit, who built the Naahville M-14 bridge, have been given an extension of time by the state highway department on the US-12 bridge across the Michigan Central railroad just east of Battle Creek, as so much work remains to be done on the approaches that the bridge cannot be completed by June 15. The bridge itself will be done by that time. There are two reasons for । the delay on the approaches. One is | that the state highway department ' kept the old Hinman bridge open to traffic as long as possible so the con­ tractor couldn't begin work on the approaches as soon as on the bridge, j and the other, that the unusually se­ vere winter weather made digging and hauling operations slow and ex­ pensive. —Diplomas will be presented 102 at the graduation exercises of Hastings high school Friday evening. —George DJfcke. 80, former Eaton county clerk, died at his home in Grand Ledge.

Complaint was made by Cameron Earl who added that while not listed in the complaint, his automobile was among the articles disposed of by his son who forged his name to the title and to the check. Cameron Earl and wife are the only survivors of an au­ tomobile crash which claimed the lives of the three occupants of the other car involved. They were re­ moved to Nichols Memorial hospital, and only recently Earl was discharg­ ed. When he returned to his farm, he found it virtually stripped of the per­ sonal property, including livestock, grain, and household furnishings. His son left him alone and helpless in bed. in the empty house, where a neighbor found him a day and a half later without food, water, and medi­ cal attention. Potter is a of Mrs. Ear! and worked the farm until a few months ago. He had said the son came and ordered him to leave, after the accident, saying he would take over the management. He evidently believed his father would not recover. Potter, 25, of Pennfield, was arrested first, and Earl 24. was ar­ rested in the home of his mother at Escanaba.

Landon and Knox head the national Republican ticket as the result of the recent convention held on Cleveland, and as such lead the "crusade." The work of the convention was a composite job and reflected the gen­ eral sentiment of the party and as a whole the platform reflects a cross section of party sentiment with mid­ western ideas dominant. It was a serious minded convention in Its. entirety. Senator Vandenberg led the others who aspired to the highest national office, In withdrawal, and Senator Vandenberg was the real choice of the Landonites for vice pres­ ident, but Vandenberg felt that he could be of more service on the senate floor, and in that way escaped what would have been a "dead end” politi­ cally. He is but 51, and wants to go places. Michigan has a "share" tn the tic­ ket as it is. Col. Knox attended Al­ ma college and his journalistic career was begun as a member of the Grand Rapids Herald staff. Gov.

Ex-President Hoover, who addressed the convention, received a great ova­ tion. John Hamilton, Landon manag­ er, now head of the Republican na­ tional committee, made a strong im­ pression. Senator Vandenberg’s position tn the Republican party, while it did not result in his selection to head the par­ ty at this time, seemed strengthened by the convention which sang such in­ spiring songs as "'Onward Christian Soldiers" and 'The Battle Hymn of the Republic," beside “Oh, Susanna,”, the Landonltes’ song, and the conven­ tion bom song. “Three Long Years.” New and younger and western lead­ ership has succeeded the “Old Guard."

The Primary department, under the direction of Miss Lucille DeWitt and her assistants, Mrs. Fred Langham. Elinore Parrott. Genevieve Biggs and Doris Dahlhouser, are helping the children to find God through nature, and to share their pleasures with oth­ er children less fortunate. Their hand­ work (doll hbuse and toys) and the Junior handwork (dressed dolls, doll furniture and other wooden play­ things) are to be given to the Grand Rapids Community House, a Christtian settlement house in the foreign section of the city. Then the offer­ ings from the two departments are to be used to send some needy chil­ dren from the New York City slums to Mont Lawn, Christian Herald sum­ mer camp. The Intermediates are making cos­ tumes suitable for use in Christmas and Children's Day programs, which will be stored and be available for any church group that needs them. Any usable material for this purpose will be much appreciated. The program of the Junior depart­ ment. besides handwork, includes worship, Bible study, memory work, and temperance. The teachers in this department are Anne Mayo, Virginia Day, Georgia Butler, Vera Maxson and Edward Haines with Edith Parks as superintendent Rev. Pritchard is in charge of the Intermediate class, and Mrs. Flossie Shupp is assisting with the girls' handwork. The school enrollment includes Ev­ angelicals. Methodist Episcopate, Methodist Protestants. Nazarenes, Catholics, and Baptists. All children, who have attended school, are eligible, and we urge them to enter as soon as possible for as much of the school as they can attend. Fire Department Had Rural Calls Two Sunday Calls. Floyd Nesbet’s Home Damaged; Brooder Fire At Matt Balch’s. Nashville’s fire department received two rural calls on Sunday afteanoon, first to the Floyd Nesbet farm at Barryville and then to the Matt Balch farm in Maple Grove. The fire at the Nesbet farm was in the home, and luckily Mr. and Mrs. Nesbet were there. As it was. with the help of neighbors and the chemi­ cal, the inside of the second story and the stairway was burned and a hole through the roof, the family losing its winter clothing. Hearing something fall, they opened the stair door to be met with flamex Cause unknown. The fire at the Balch farm started from a chicken brooder in the bam. and the alarm was turned in by Mrs. W. C. DeBolt, a neighbor, who was the first to see IL When the depart­ ment reached there, the brooder, etc., had been gotten out and there was no work to do by the department DELAYED NUPTIAL SHOWER FOR MRS.

County Relief Set-up To Be Revised New Flan Provided For Nwnlnjp Members Of The County Bodies. To make possible a greater degree of participation by local governmen­ tal officials in the administration of relief, the state Emergency Relief commission, in consultation with the Governor, has revised the member­ ship of the county commission, effec­ tive July 1. Beginning then the county commis­ sion will be composed of the chairman of the county Board of Supervisors, or a supervisor selected by him to serve In his place; the chairman of the present county Emergency Relief commission, except where he is a county official; and a third member to be recommended by the county Board of Supervisors for appointment by the state Relief commission. There will be no changes In the state commission nor in its personnel or basic policies. It will continue to supervise the local administration of public relief funds. The commission reiterated its threeyear-old policy that no employee of the state or county relief commission may bold an elective office or be a candidate for public office or in any other way take an active part in poli­ tical activities of any sort. The com­ mission will rigidly adhere to its pol­ icy that those who administer relief abstain from political activity. The commission will set up at once a state-wide merit system establish­ ing the principles of civil service for all employees of the state and county relief commissions. Such a plan will operate until such time as the state may create a civil service commission. All employees will be selected on the basis of merit, as evidenced by appro­ priate examinations, experience and training. The commission directed the admin­ istrator to make an immediate survey of the administrative personnel em­ ployed in all of the counties of the state and in recognition of the con­ tinuing decreases in the caseload of the county Relief commissions, to make reductions in administrative personnel.

Memorial Day automo­ bile races at Indianap­ olis stand out as being of concern to the man who drives the family bus. One was the reduction in fuel con­ sumption, and the other was the in­ troduction of a safety factor on the speedway. There was a new restriction on fuel consumption. Previously, 42 gallons of gasoline for the 500 mile run. This year the maximum was reduced to 37 gallons. Five drivers were eliminated from the race because they ran out of gasoline, one only 17 miles short of his goal. Another exhausted his sup­ ply on the back turn of the tradi­ tional extra circuit of‘the track after completing the 500 mile distance. But the winning car, which made the phenomenal average speed of 100 miles an hour, completed the race with only 34 gallons consumed, re­ ducing the former rate of consump­ tion of 11.9 miles to the gallon, to nearly 14.7 miles to the gallon, a fuel consumption record that many motor car owners would like to enjoy. This year there were no fatalities: only one bad accident was recorded and only one race driver suffered in­ juries and they were not serious. This now safety record testifies to the fact that highway engineering has kept pace with motor car engineering. The race management is reported to have spent $100,000 improving the track and increasing its safety. Curves were widened and straight­ aways were smoothed out to protect drivers and make it easier for them to control ‘heir cars. This year, how­ ever, they demonstrated their value by showing how the application of road science may improve the safety factor in driving and how the motoi laboratories have advanced the econ omy factor in engine design.

There are from 75 to 100 checks in payment of Michigan's 1921 “sol­ diers’ bonus" which have never been claimed. They were returned by por­ tal authorities to-the office of the State Treasurer, many years ago, and will be paid promptly to anyone prov­ ing claim to any of them. The mystery of checks never claim­ ed and others f laimed but apparently never cashed, is an unfailing one at the state capltol. —Leonard Dalp, experimenter with dahlias and connected with the Uni­ versity of Michigan, has planted .more than 3000 bulbs recently at the borne of his parents-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Rowe of Portland.

Big Highway Program. On June 9th the federal govern­ ment approved the new road pro­ gram and the following day the high­ way department asked for bids on six million dollars of new constructin. This program is scattered over 29 counties and involves 156 miles of concrete pavement, 34 miles of bitu­ minous concrete and over six miles of oil aggregate treatment. Seven bridges are also included tn the pro­ posed construction. This program is by far the largest In the history of the state and in­ volves work on a majority of the ma­ jor trunk lines of the state. The highway commissioner, Murray D. Van Wagoner, has again demonstrat­ ed that he is actively on the job whenever new constructions Ln Mich­ igan is involved. The High School Graduate. The constant tendency of students to complete the high school course has become more marked since 1929 when the commercial depression made it impossible for many young people to secure employment On the other hand, the enrollment in the north cen­ tral colleges has decreased thirty-five per cent This also, of course. Is due to economic causes. A great deal of study has been given to this problem and it is generally agreed that the answer lies in adding two years to the high school course. In other words, practically every high school should perate a junior high school course. The program should provide for a horizontal expansion of the curricu- ■ lum so that non-college people would hav<^a definite opportunity to con­ tinue their training in other than strictly traditional lines. This program would recognize the fact that many students really need courses which are not academic in their character. A high percentage of our young people really can find little of value in the traditional cours­ es, but there is a big field for them in non-traditional vocational work. It is this department which inevitably appeals to the modem educator. The various groups at work on the study of this question hope to be able to develop a practical program for recommendation to the people of Michigan within a few months.

The tax for the running expenses of the city is raised in July. Hastings and the villages of the county are not affected by the 15 mill tax law because they are operated un­ der charters which control the taxa­ tion for regular city expenses.

Preliminary allocation of taxes for each taxation unit of the county was accomplished by the Barry county tax comrulesion, and each school district and township noticed of the alloca­ tion. They have until July 33 to ask for changes if desired in the tax rates fixed by the commission. If no changes are requested, the figure* fixed below by the commission will be adopted on Tuesday. July 23. as ita final report. The only excep­ tion may be fractional districts, com­ prising territory partly in Barry and the balance in some adjoining county. If the allocation to such district in the adjoining county shall be lower than that fixed by Barry county, then the lower rate made by trie other county shall determine the rate for the Barry county territory in such fractional district If the Barry county alloca­ tion to that district is lower than that of the adjoining county, then the Bar­ ry county percentage of school tax for that fractional district shall fix tlie percentage of school tax levied on property in that district which is in the adjoining county. The tentative figures adopted by the Barry county tax commission give to this county a tax rate of 6 mills. For the townships the rate varies.

VOLUME LXH Five Cents the Copy NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY. JUNE 25, 1936 SCHOOL NEWS was in the best physical condition of VARIOUS STEPS TAKEN TOWARD CONSOLIDATION over 250 schools visited by Leo Close, director of rural educational schools, News readers are wondering about Michigan State Department, up to the the various steps that have been tak­ time of his visit here, which speaks en toward school consolidation and well indeed for scholars and teachers. the present status. The latter can be answered briefly. ACCREDITfiD BY U. OF BL There is no consolidation yet. N. H. S. REMAINS ON LIST Now as to what has been done— From Supt. Wallace we learn the fol­ lowing facts: The local school board called in representatives of a number of districts to consider consolidation. Two others, the Maple Grove Center and Norton schools, wanteo td come in and were given petitions by the county school commissioner. It has been customary in the past, says Supt. Wallace, when consolida­ tion of village and district school was to be considered, to circulate blank petitions, or petitions that were in­ completely filled out, a practice fol­ lowed because it was not always known at the stan how many dis­ tricts desired to join in the new orga­ nization. After the petitions had been circu­ lated. then the county commissioner filled in the blanks with names of districts having the required number of signers for consolidation This year the people of the local school, the Beigh, the Barnes, the Mason, the McKelvey, the Norton, the Barryville. the Morgan, the Cas­ tleton Center, the Feighner and the Hosmer districts presented petitions for consolidation. Later, continues Mr. Wallace, elec­ tors from the Mason. Caatletog Cen­ ter and Hosmer districts circulated and obtained signers on counter peti­ tions, asking that their names be struck from the original petitions, and that there were threats of an injunc­ tion if their names were not taken off the original petitions. In view of the fact that there was some dissatisfaction on the part of some who might become part of the consolidated district, the state de­ partment of public instruction has asked that the petitions be re-circu­ lated and then be presented to that department for its approval Locally, the district through its school officers extends a cordial invi­ tation to nearby school districts to enter consolidation if the people of these districts so desire. Mr. Wallace says the situation makes it advisable for all districts in­ volved to go ahead and hold their regular annual meeting because of the time required to re-circulate petitions, secure their approval, vote on consol­ idation and reorganize the school. In conclusion. Mr. Wallace states that possibilities of consolidation have led school officials of some districts to inquire about the possibility of pay­ ing the tuition and transporting their pupils to Nashville, and not opening their schools in the fall. Taken from a letter from H. C. Koch to Mr. Wallace, superintendent of schools, May 5, 1936: ‘1 called at your school May 4 tn the interest of its further accreditment by the University of Michigan. As a result of this visit, the following observations are brought to your at­ tention: 1. I was pleased indeed with the work of your new teachers. They im­ pressed me as being personable indi­ viduals with a very commendable classroom demeanor. 2. The boys and girls exhibited * very praise-worthy school citizenship. Apparently they have been taught to assume responsibility and are dis­ charging such responsibility well. 3. You are to be highly commended as well as the Board of Education for pushing to conclusion the addition to your school building. Your decision to house the elementary grades in the new addition rather than tn the older portion is, in my judgment, education­ ally sound. 4. Although I cannot repeat in de­ tail here the various topics which we discussed in our conferences as the day wore along, let me summarize by saying that you give evidence of very commendable educational leadership. Here I am thinking of your activities program, the departmentalization of your grade work, the fine spirit of co­ operation which exists between the Board of Education and the Superin­ tendent of Schools, and the general thought which you are putting into the educational advantages for your community. In this connection please recall our discussion of the basic philosophy of teaching which involves the close relating of activities and materials in the classroom to the common run of daily experiences of the boys and girls. Such philosophy, when put in effect, really takes much of the mystery out of secondary edu­ cation and helps the students who are exposed to it to appreciate that there are very practical applications of their school experiences to life outside the classroom. Such a philosophy is psy­ chologically sound." Regarding the progress being made on our school addition, the general construction is mostly done, except for plastering, and most of the rough coat is on. In the auditorium-gymnasium most of the glazed tile are in place. The room is almost completely filled with scaffolding at the present time. Work­ men are preparing to place lath and plaster on ceiling. The wood floor in the gymnasium will not be laid until the plastering there is completed. The class rooms are plastered and the glazed tile are all laid along the corridors and around the openings of most of the doors leading to the class rooms. The ceilings in the corridors remain unplastered, lockers must be assem­ bled and installer. Floors in corridors, toilets, locker rooms, stair steps and window ledges will be made of terrazo, as will also the toilet walls and partitions. Terrazo is made by mixing marble pebbles in cement, allowing the com­ position to dry and then grinding the material with a carborundum wheel. The terrazo is made right here at the school and poured in forms like con­ crete. • The heating and plumbing pipes are practically ail in place. The boiler also is in place, but not the stoker. The three columns fur the west por­ tico have been erected. Supt Wallace To Summer SchooL Supt W. D.

Feighner, and engaged in farming and dairying for a time, near Nashville, ended his own life last Thursday by shooting himself through the head with a .38 calibre revolver at his resi­ dence in the tenant house on the Nor­ man Whitney farm in Marshall town­ ship. Calhoun county. Mr. Pendill was the grandson of Battle Creek's first mayor E. W. Pen­ dill, a pioneer resident, who owned the property known as -’Pendill’s Hill" embracing several hundred acres in the area surrounding what is now the intersection of Capital Avenue South­ west and Bidwell Street. Prior to his election as mayor, the head of the governing body had been the village president He was mayor three years. Severe pain, resulting from injuries which he suffered in a fall from a lad­ der the preceding afternoon, was be­ lieved to have caused Van Pendill to take his own life, although be had been despondent over financial revers­ es and marital difficulties. A former employee. Leo Loomis of Battle Creek, accompanied by his wife and her sister, found the body late Thurs­ day afternoon. They had learned of his injuries and had driven out to see him. He was sitting on a wicker set­ tee, and had sent a bullet through his brain, the revolver lying by his side on a cushion. The accident in which he was In­ jured occurred while he was painting a large bam on the Rocco farm, which adjoins the Whitney farm. He was standing on a ladder, which had been placed on a wagon, and was attempt­ ing to adjust the ladder when it was caught in a gust of wind and hurled to the ground. As the ladder crashed against a nearby fence. Pendill was thrown 14 feet astride an iron gate, suffering a rupture of the prostate gland and hemorrhage of the bladder. He had been in Battle Creek for treatment both on Wednesday and Thursday, and on the latter trip had done an errand for a neighbor, who was the last person to see him alive. Coroner Putnam decided it was a clear case of suicide, and no inquest was necessary. Mr. Pendill had resided for six weeks in the Whitney tenant house, was conducting a small poultry farm, and painting around the neighbor­ hood. ;. Mr. Pendill was born Feb. 5. 1875, at Hickory Comers, the son of a far­ mer, had been engaged is farming and as a streetcar motor.nan before tak­ ing up funeral directing. He graduat­ ed from the Worsham College of Em­ balming, Chicago, in 1913. and immed­ iately established himself in Vermont­ ville, where he was in business for 5 1-2 years, and then for a similar period in Nashville, going to Battle Creek from here, and later to Dowa­ giac. He was an Odd Fellow, Rebekah, Mason. Elk, and Eagle. He leaves a widow at Dowagiac, from whom he was separated; a son by a previous marriage, Harold Pen­ dill of Battle Creek, and three sisters, Mrs. Florence Mott of Prairieville, Mrs. Belle Wright of Assyria Center, and Mrs. June Bernard of Grand Rap­ ids FELL THROUGH CHUTE OF MOVING GRAVEL CAR Chancey Hicks of the local Mich­ igan Central section crew, fell through the chute of a gravel car as it was being carried along and dumped at Morgan Tuesday for road bed im­ provement.

Cranberry Bean .1 Puts State First CalKonUa Iw. Markrt To MkMpa Grower*; Crop Expert Suggest* Slight Expansirm. Farmers in the cranberry bean growing industry in Michigan ha»e taken away much of the market that once belonged to California, princi­ pally because this state is closer to centers of consumption. So that in 1936 Michigan bean grower* are safe in planting the equal or perhape some Increase in cranberry beans over 1935 acreages, according to Professor H. C. Rather of the farm crops depart­ ment at Michigan State College. The cranberry bean has a mottled skin which appeals to consumers, es­ pecially to families in the eastern mining and southern industrial sectiona. Supplies grown in Michigan in 1935 are all sold at prices that were around $4 for a hundred pound bag tn October and wound up early in June at $2.75. Marketing earlier, Rather points out, seems to have its advan­ tages. "In many sections the cranberry bean yields as well or better in Mich­ igan than the white navy or pea bean" says Professor Rather. "Far­ mers in the state are warranted to . plant as many or a little more than they put in in '1035 of this type for the prospective market for the cran­ berry bean is as good or a little bet­ ter than for the white bean. ’•Crop figures indicate the cranber­ ry bean in 1935 was a crop worth more than three-fourths of a million dollars in this state. There were 253,000 bags harvested in 1935 as compared with 108,000 bags in 1934. Although approximately 40,000 acres were grown last year, it is safe to es­ timate the market will take the crop from 50 to 60 thousand acres of cran­ berry beans from Michigan farms this year.” —Fire which originated from a steam boiler in a milk house, destroy­ ed three dairy barns and a milk bot­ tling and refrigerating plant on the John W.

Care Prevents Food Poisoning Food poisoning during the summer is very often caused by improper re­ frigeration or lack of other protection of foods, in the opinion of extension workers in home economics at Mich­ igan State college, East Lansing. Church suppers, picnics and fairs take their toll every summer because of carelessness. An example is in handling sandwiches stacked in warm places permitting the growth of harmful bacteria. “Moist or soft cooked food should be kept in a refrigerator, or where no refrigerator is available the food should be recooked before serving, even if it shows no sign of spoilage." they say. “Food should never be ex­ posed for more than a few hours to a temperature above 50 degrees Fahren­ heit "Investigations of the U. S. Food and Drug administration show that carelessness is responsible for practi­ cally all the food poisoning cases stud­ ied." Extension workers recommend that food should be kept free from dirt, in­ sects and other carriers of micro-or­ ganisms; cooked food should be serv­ ed as soon as possible after prepara­ tion; food with an unusual smell or appearance should never be eaten; and extreme care should always be taken in handling household insecti­ cides in the kitchen and psntry. —Oscar Elstrum, 64, of near Cli­ max, was Injured critically when the frame of a buzz saw broke and his head was thrown against the saw.

Johnson. the arguments in the famous Krench case it heard a matter which is of vi­ tal interest to the tax payers of Mich­ igan. The title of the state to the oil and mineral rights on lands re­ verting to the state is at stake. Judge George sitting for Judge Guy D. Smith ruled that the act under which the state makes such claims was un­ constitutional . The state in its brief held that the land belonged to it, that it had been deeded with this reserva­ tion and that all subsequent deeds had shown that fact. Thus the rights to the oil had been clearly shown from the first despite any act passed by the legislature. The figures released by the conser­ vation commission show that the amdunt involved will speedily run in­ to the millions, all of which the tax payers will lose if the case Is decided adversely to the state. They are going to give him full credit for the various philanthropies which he has sponsored. It is expected that while the meeting will have no politi­ cal significance there will be many people present who will be Interested in the coming campaign for the Re­ publican senatorial nomination. Many Schools To Close. The tendency this year would seem to be such that the coming school meetings will close many of the coun­ try schools next year. The children of all the grades or certain specified grades will be transported to some neighboring school which offers all the work desired.

They are the niece and nephew of Mra. Wickwire. days before entering sumiqer school • at Michigan State college in East Lansing. In August she will return fear two more weeks work with the twenty-four girls have carried pro­ jects during June, and several will continue their activities during the summer, some of them sewing, others canning, and still others doing gar­ dening, taking care of children, and other work in which they believe they need more experience. Several of the' girls are employed outside their homes and are leaving their projects for the last two weeks of August . In all there are about forty girls doing sum­ mer projects this year. Euch summer the best reports of school year projects are sent to Lans­ ing to the state office of vocational education. This year the reports se­ lected are: Room Project, by Geraldine Howell, ninth grade. Can You Sew a Fine Seam by Wil­ ma Parrott.-ninth grade. Lunches, by Mary VanDoren, elev­ enth grade. Dlnnah am Served in the Dinin' Cah, by Betty Foster, eleventh grade. The Week-end House Wife, by Vio­ la Baas, senior. These reports are sent to other schools for other girls to sea. Marjorie Dull Goes To Camp Kitannlwa. This year the home economics girls are again having the opportunity of sending a delegate to Camp Kltanniwa at Clear lake, Dowling, for one week. Girls from departments throughout the Lower Peninsula have met there to compare experiences in home pro­ ject work and in class work. There is the usual camp routine, with swim­ ming and other sports, handicraft, dramatics, and a round of good wholesome fun for all. This year's se­ lection from Nashville was Marjorie Dull, sophomore, who was enrolled in the home economics n class. Selec­ tion was made on a real interest in home economics, progress made dur­ ing the year, citizenship, which in­ cludes willingness to do one's part in class activities, pleasing personality, ability to get along with the group, ability to help make the camp a suc­ cess. and to bring back something worth while to the girls at home. Class standings and project work were taken into consideration. Two girls were close competitors, Virginia Cole, also a sophomore, enrolled in the H. E. n class, and Marjorie. Inas­ much as Virginia has gone to the Camp Fire camp before. Marjorie was the final selection, with the under­ standing that Virginia would act as alternate. Marjorie left for camp cn Sunday, June 21, and will be gone for one week. ■ Money to finance the trip was rais­ ed through a candy sale at the fair in the fall, an ice cream social this spring, and some was left on hand from last year. We all join in wishing Marjorie a happy and profitable week at Camp Kitanniwa. Counties Urged To File McNitt Reports This Report Must Be Filed Before ( ounttee Arc Eligible To Re­ ceive Payment*. Murray D. VanWagoner. state high­ way commissioner, urged 23 counties co file their McNltt township road law reports to him immediately. The commissioner said he plana to voucher J2.OOC.0OO to the counties about July 15 covering the second half payment on the $4..000,000 Mc­ Nltt law allocation this year. Under the law. the counties arc required to file their reports before they are eli­ gible to receive their payments. Eleven counties have failed to file their statements certifying that they have advertised township roads taken over and have notified township road commissioners. These counties are Alcona, Baraga, Oceana, Barry, Bay. Gladwin, Ingham, Newaygo, Osceola, Sanilac, and St. Joseph. The same number of counties—Al­ ger, Arenac, Clare. Genesee, Luce, Monroe, Oakland, Ogemaw, Ontona­ gon, Oscoda, and St Clair—have not filed their statements regarding re­ ceipts and expenditures on the former township roads. Mackinac county has neglected to file the complete set of maps required by the law. Half of the McNitt payments were advanced in April by Commissioner Van Wagoner and Auditor General John J. O'Hara in view of the heavy maintenance obligations of the coun­ ties caused by their big snow-remov­ al programs last winter. The last of 62,200 miles of former township roads in the state were tak­ en over by the counties this year. The state appropriation from highway rev­ enues to effect this transition is now fixed at 14,000,000 a year. It started five years ago at $2,000,000. increas­ ing $500,000 a year.

Last Year. Rural Property. Michigan waited until the centen­ nial of her admission to statehood and for the assistance of the Works Prog­ ress Administration to take stock of her most prized assets—the broad ru­ ral areas that constitute the bulk of her domain. Through the year various state leg­ islatures have set up elaborate pro­ cedures for putting the land on tax­ rolls. transferring titles with chang­ ing ownership, and equalizing values from time to time. But the federal government, through the WPA, is fin­ ally making possible a complete in­ ventory of the rural property of the state. Under the supervision of the State Tax commission, which sponsors the project, 1,125 WPA workers, selected largely from relief rolls and working in crews of five, are covering every Michigan county. Since the first of the year they have copied 1,081,049. or 67 per cent of the 1,621,572 des­ criptions on the tax rolls of the state's 1,244 townships, and they have already plotted 367,933 of these des­ criptions. So far they have uncover­ ed 70.681 erroneous or missing des­ criptions and corrected 44,903 of them. This data supplements field surveys by Skilled workers. From these sur­ veys and descriptions maps will be prepared of each farm and each par­ cel of rural land for the permanent records of the state. The inventory includes a classification as to use, cover, soil, etc., of each enclosure; a description and history of all im­ provements; and the collation of all data bearing on the value, ownership and productivity of each parcel. When the work is complete the state will have an accurate basis for developing and installing a scientific procedure for the equalization and valuation of rural property. The data will also be of immeasurable value as a basis for land planning and devel­ oping programs in the important fields of education, electrification, and transportation. The project is under the general direction of F. M. Thrun, formerly of the State Tax commis­ sion's staff. An original allotment of $400,000 for this project was reduced to $223.­ 328.34, which is expected to finance the work through June. Because of its tremendous value to the state, al­ ready demonstrated in the detection and correction of erroneous and miss­ ing descriptions, officials of the tax commission will strongly urge its continuance. ' One of the delightful events of Fri­ day last was the annual reunion of the Wenger family, held this year in Nashville, and attended by 85, with 10 from Indiana and 75 from Mich­ igan. Local members of the Wenger family extended a cordial welcome, and the affair passed off tn the usual­ ly pleasant way, with a bountiful din­ ner, visiting, program, and business meeting, at Masonic Temple, threat­ ening weather! interfering with the plan for bolding the reunion in the park. The same officers were, retain­ ed. Aaron Good of Dutton, unable to attend because of a stroke, is presi­ dent. Attorney Homer Freeland of Grand Rapids is vice president, and Flossie Wenger, also of Grand Rap­ ids, is secretary-treasurer. Rela­ tives came from ail around this part of the state and from Elkhart and Wakarusa. Ind. Every third year the reunion is held in Indiana, and 1937 is the year again. It will meet at Wakarusa. Nashville Ladies Saw Auto Crash Mn. Elder And Mother On M-14 Saw Two Cara Crash At US-16 and M-14 Intersection. 1 Died, 4 Hurt. Mrs. Fred Elder and mother, Mrs. Lyman, returning Monday afternoon from a visit to Mr. Elder at Green­ ville, saw an h.uto crash at the inter­ section of US-16 and M-14, which re­ sulted in the later death of one of the parties and injuries to the four other men. Martin Osterink, a Grand Rapids contractor in charge of the construc­ tion of the Portland school, was re­ turning hlone to the Furniture City, when an east bound car containing four WPA workers from Tonia, who had been placing guard rails on a road at Elmdale. slowed down for the in­ tersection, and then turned north for M-14 to Ionia, into the path of Osterink’s car. Henry A. Raheb, 56, of Ionia, died Monday night. George Wood, driver of the Ionia car, suffered lacerations of the head and hand, and the two others in that car were cut and bruis­ ed. Osterink suffered a laceration of the left knee and injuries about the face and head. Mrs. EHder and Mrs. Lyman were travelling on M-14 at the time of the accident Barry Co.

NUMBER 52. The Barry county board of super­ visors completed their June session late Saturday afternoon and as their final measure finished the equalization of the county tax on a basis of $16.­ 000,000 instead of $15,000,000 which was the figure for 1935. Hastings was given 23 per cent of the total and the remainder was given to the 16 townships of the county.

Telephone, Teletypewriter, Radio Are Modem Police Aids in Fight on Crime Tires On Tractors Pay Initial Cost Most Conservative Figures Indicate fuel Savings Alone Are Worth In­ vestment For Average Farmer. Simple arithmetic proves that tires on tractors pay for themselves in about five years in fuel savings, says H. H. Musselman, professor of agri­ cultural engineering at Michigan State college. . Although scattered reports on fuel savings have indicated pneumatic tires on tractors are able to save a fourth or a third of the fuel on many Mich­ igan farms, conservative figures ac­ tually obtained in a survey by Profes­ sor Musselman ranged from 12 1-2 to 15 per cent Yet even this minimum range easily proves the efficiency of modem traction. On the average Michigan farm it is estimated that a tractor is being used for field work 75 days a year and consumes about 15 gallons of fuel per day. Fuel costs thus are around $168.75. A saving of 12 1-i per cent or one-eighth is $21.09, to which can be added an additional saving of 7 1-2 per cent of time in the field or a labor saving of $5.62. This is a total for a year of $26.71. Estimating an initial cost for the tractor tires at $200. these minimum figures show the tires pay for themselves within seven and one-half years, although Individual farmers are reporting the time is per­ haps less than five years. The tires should last ten years or more. To these acutal cost figures, Bas’s Professor Musselman, farmer operat­ ors can be assured that rubber tires have removed all usage limitations on a tractor. It is true, be reports, that wet grass, heavy green sod or wet clay will not permit use of rubber tires, but the speed at which the out­ fit can be worked under proper and more favorable field working condi­ tions overbalances this handicap. In addition, there is far greater comfort for the tractor rider, there i-s less wear on the tractor cjid the machine can proceed on roads where tractors with lugs are barred. BARRY CO.

Ha.-. Levriy New Ta­ bles For Shew, And Considers Proepect* Good. The Lent* Table Co. Is dialpaying a very fine new line of tables at the Centennial Furniture Festival at Grand Rapids, for which manufactur­ ers and buyers have been gathering the past week. The furniture busi­ ness is said to be coming back, and the Lentz Co. considers the prospects very good. Boilers at the plant here will be overhauled during the show time and things made ready to go on the new orders. Long days and nights have gone In­ to the planning of floats for the Cen­ tennial parade July 7 at Grand Rap­ ids, which starts off the festival, and there will be a pageant three succes­ sive evenings in the splendid amphi­ theater of the Houseman Field, for which hundreds of actors and singers are preparing. Ten thousand persons can be ac­ commodated in the stadium, and 900 will take part in the performance called "Romance of Furniture,” delv­ ing into history, bringing the Industry to the present moment, with a chorus of 1.000 voices. Particularly will this pageant, and the parade as well, tell the story of Grand Rapids. Some of it is familiar already'to those who for many years have been coming to the market there. But much of it will be new, and of absorbing interest The first episode will demonstrate the application of art to furniture in Greece, Rome, during the Renaissance and by the more modern English mas­ ters. The second episode will take up the story in Grand Rapids 100 years ago when •'Deacon" William Haldane, first of this city’s long line of crafts­ men, made the first piece of furniture for sale to his neighbors. From this small production and that first trans­ action grew the industry all the world knows. It will tell, too, the colorful history of Grand Rapids, which is per­ haps less well known to the visitors of these three weeks, the days of the lumberjacks and the camps and saw­ mills. Early Grand Rapids furniture will be displayed. Buyers of the Civil war days will be brought to life, and the beginnings of the semi-annual markets will be shown. The gay nine­ ties will be shown with the market in full bloom—with mission furniture, and revived Empire, along with the horse and buggy, the bicycle, the bus­ tle, picture hats and puffed sleeves. And then the modem age will be de­ picted. Much of it will be in panto­ mime. CONSOLIDATING CCC CAMPS AT CAMP CUSTER A change of administrative policy of the Civilian Conservation Corps will centralize control of Michigan CCC camps in district headquarters at Camp Custer by eliminating the five sub-districts that now exist in the state. The Michigan district camps will recruit between two and three thousand men starting July .1. Present administration of the CCC is accomplished by five commanding officers in the northern part of the state working under Capt. Wilbur J. Fox, district commander at Custer. Under the new setup the commands will be taken from the sub-district of­ ficers and they will act as inspectors for district headquarters, with Cap­ tain Fox In complete charge.

The Consumers Power Co. made the first change from artificial gas June 16. by mixing about half natural and half artificial, and this mixture was continued until a week ago when full natural gas was turned into the mains. The company has had men working in crews to make the necessary chan­ ges for the mixed gas and now chan­ ges in the gas burners are necessary, being made without expense to the customer. It is claimed the natural gas will be much cheaper for the customer (ac­ cording to beat units) than what Be has been paying for artificial gas. A special rate is made to customers wishing to use the gas for heating purposes, a rate which is claimed compares with using $10 per ton coal. It is quite likely that the consump­ tion of the natural gas will be greatly increased over what has been used of the artificial, if the claims for the na­ tural gas prove true.

Old wives' tales and other fallacies have no place in the problem of feed­ ing the family today, says Miss Ro­ berta Hershey, extension specialist in nutrition at Michigan State college. She has compiled a list of 20 queer suppositions about foods and the an­ swer to all of them is a definite “no." The suppositions include those about the wisdom of not combining fruits in a meal with milk, or the idea that tomatoes thin the blood, or that cane sugar is superior to beet sugar, that fish is a brain food, or that on­ ions will cure a cold. In answering the “old wives' tales," Miss Hershey has no argument against onions, but with authority she says that a cold is cured when the body overcomes the infection, a-pro­ fess in which onions could have no connection. That fish is a brain food brings out another debunker through nutrition facts. One particular food does not build particular tissues, for the various tissues, says Miss Hersh­ ey, take the material they require from the blood stream. Fish happens to contain phosphorus which all body cells require, but many other foods al­ so contain this element And so the process continues, says Miss Hershey. For laboratory tests and common sense prove that lemons, tomatoes and grapefruit are not acid forming foods, as popularly supposed.

Of BATTLE CREEK • OM BeUabie Since 1871" To Raise More Hogs In 1936 In Michigan Producers Are Increasing Their Far­ rowing* Over lft$4-1985 Small Number Kuk-d. Michigan hog producers arc in­ creasing' their 1036 farrowings mark­ edly over the unusually small num­ bers for 1834 and 1935, according to the June Pig Survey report issued by the United States Department of Ag­ riculture. Despite the rather sharp Increase, .compared with the last two years, the total 1936 spring and fall farruwings promise to be about 4 per cent less than the average for 1932 and 1933. The number of sows farrowed in Michigan during the spring season of 1936- has been estimated at 101,000 head, an increase of 40 per cent com­ pared with the revised estimate of 72,000 head for the spring of 1935. Spring fazrowings in 1934 have been estimated at 90.000 bead while the average for the two years 1932-33 is placed at 110,000 head. The average number of pigs saved per litter is reported at 6.44 for the spring season of 1936, which figure compares with 6.65 for the same per­ iod in 1935. The number of pigs sav­ ed, spring of 1936, is estimated at 650,000 head as against 479,000 head in the spring of 1935, 586,000 head, spring of 1934, arid 724.000 head, spring pig crop for 1932-33. intended farrowings for the fall sea­ son of 1936 in Michigan have been, estimated at 82,000 head which is 20 per cent more than the revised esti­ mate bf 68,000 head of sows farrowed in the fall of 1935. Full farrowings for 1934 amounted to 50,000 while the average number of sows farrowed for the fall months of 1932-33 was 80,000 head. The above estimate of proba­ ble 1936 fall farrowings is based up­ on breeding intentions reports, as of June 1. and assumes that the rela­ tionship between breeding intentions and susbequent farrowings will be reasonably similar to that for years prior to 1984.

After years of indecision and inac­ tion the • Michigan Public Utilities commission has handed down a deci­ sion on the famous Bell Telephone rate case. The order, which was signed last week, will reduce the income of the company by at least $1,500,000. If the company accepts the decision as final un3 does not take it into the courts on the ground of its being con­ fiscatory, the changes will doubtless go Ihto effect within the next sixty or ninety days. The base rates in many communi­ ties was materially reduced and the metered service has been changed to permit a- larger number of calls. In many places the base rates will remain the same although a large number of toll tariffs have been re­ duced. The so-called hand sets have been reduced from twenty-five cents a month for eighteen months to fifteen cents for the same period. The var­ ious service charges as installations, moving phones and reconnecting ser­ vice have been reduced by about fifty per cent. The payments made to the Ameri­ can Telephone and Telegraph com­ pany have been more than halved. Then the summer rates in resort cen­ ters have also been cut. This case has been dragging for ov­ er fifteen years. The commission or­ dered an appraisal in 1919 to deter­ mine the fair valuation of the com­ pany. This was made but was never used fairly In establishing a rate due to a number of changed conditions. The company took the order banded down in 1924 Into the courts and it was there for a long time. Finally the commission again made changes and some eighteen months ago a snap decision was handed down which was manifestly unfair and was never plac­ ed in operation. When the present commission was appointed its mem­ bers immediately set to work using the evidence at hand and determined to make a decision which would be fair to all concerned^ They have tried to do so. The company feels that the reduc­ tions in these days of advancing pric­ es will make it hard to secure the money for needed extensions. It is said that a meeting of the board of directors is scheduled for the ninth of this month for the purpose of de­ termining the proper line of action. Selling Michigan Apples. A determined effort is to be made by Michigan apple growers to sell Michigan apples to the home folks as well as to people in other states. The superiority of the Michigan pro­ duct in flavor is admitted by all who eat them but tn many communities the buyers do not realize this fact. To them an apple is just an apple. There is nothing more to be said. This has been to a great measure the fault of the growers and packers who have not graded carefully nor have they made nice looking packages. The western growers are careful about these details and they have benefitted by their car. The state department of agriculture has done much to edu­ cate Michigan producers and under their bonded label system Michigan fruits and vegetables are assuming a more important place in the larger markets. The Balance. The figures released last week plac­ ed the probable balance in the gener­ al fund on July 1 at about $1,400,000. However some unexpected receipts in­ creased this amount so that actually there was over twice that figure left when all bills had been paid. In the days when the state was chiefly dependent upon a property tax for its revenues, the income was largely In the late spring and early summer. Then the deficits Wigan to appear in the fall or winter. The state’s fiscal year begins on July 1 and ends on June 30. This makes it hard to figure by administrations as they always start on January first. Now however the income is largely from the sales tax and this comes in each month. This makes it possible for the authorities to space their al­ lotments to the various departments and institutions so that here Is no rea­ son for the state ever being over­ drawn so long as the appropriations are kept within the estimated income. Murphy A Problem. | With no one contending for the Re- ! publican nomination against Governor • Frank D. Fitzgerald, the field of i speculation has been largely confined to Frank Murphy, commissioner of the Philippines. Mr. Murphy has long been recognized as the favorite son so far as Washington is concerned but he was slow in making up his mind. In the meantime George Welsh of Grand Rapids, a recent convert to the Democratic faith, has been making hay in his race for the gubernatorial nomination. The fact that Mr. Welsh was only recently recognized as a Democrat has made many who would otherwise have looked with. disfavor upon the Murphy candidacy welcome his en­ trance into the field with open arms. Admittedly strong in Detroit, he is expected to poll an overwhelming primary vote. Speaker Schroeder, an avowed can­ didate, is not expected to remain in the race if Commissionr Murphy ac­ tually files. —Mrs. Willard 8.

Extensive range is not necessary for successful turkey production, accord­ ing to summaries of experiments car­ ried on by the poultry husbandry de­ partment at Michigan State college. Turkeys which neyer had range or ac­ cess to outside pens were marketed successfully with a remarkably low mortality and an equally attractive low feed cost for gains in weighL If it hadn't been for a rat that took eleven young poults before some Danield Boone rifle sleuthing at night re­ sulted in the pest's death, the mortal­ ity rate would have been but six per cent "Recent trials have demonstrated the practicability of rearing and fin­ ishing turkeys without range and un­ der close confinement" says Professor C. G. Card, who worked with F. N. Barett on the campus at East Lansing and with Ashley Berridge at the Lake City experiment station in completing the turkey experiment. "Of the many methods of starting baby turkeys, this project followed a simple but apparently effective sys­ tem. The young poults were removed from the Incubator when dry and placed in a baby chick shipping box for the erst 24 hours and then under small brooders in the laboratory build­ ing in lots of about 40 pults each. Mash In hoppers and water in vac­ uum fountains were the only things given for the first week with the ex­ ception of small amounts of boiled eggs for the first five days. "Burlap was used for a floor cover­ ing for the first three to four days un­ til the chicks were accustomed to eat­ ing mash. Then bright chip shavings were used until the birds were remov­ ed to Lake City at the end of five to seven weeks." At Lake City the poults were re­ ceived in lots of 25 and each lot was placed in pens 10 feet wide and 24 feet long. An electric hover was used until no longer needed and then perch­ es were installed. Averag weights in lots at maturity ranged from 17.1 pounds to 20.5 pounds. Costs on dif­ ferent rations ranged from 7.3 cents per pound gain for one lot to 10.9 cents per pound. Another project is under way now. PARTRIDGE IS GIFTED WITH EXPRESS TRAIN SPEED The hunter levelling his gun at a partridge roaring through the brush next fall, might be surprised to know that the bird may be traveling around 50 miles an hour. J. W. Leonard and David S. Shel­ ter of the Institute for Fisheries Re­ search clocked one at that speed be­ tween Mio and South Branch. "The ruffed grouse initiated its flight when we were about 10 feet from it and in order to bring it along­ side our line of vision the speed was accelerated from 45 miles an heur to 50 miles an hour," the men reponeflT “The grouse kept up this pace for a distance of 100 to 150 feet when it went into a glide, still keeping parallel to the road which was straight thruout this portion. The bird glided for about 100 feet and during this glide our speedometer registered approxi­ mately 47 miles per hour.” rATE FEBBT SYSTEM AT STRAITS RUNS 4 STEAMERS Four steamers were in operation on Fiae Official III. the ferry system at the Straits of One of the finest places of work ev­ Mackinac operated by the state high­ er done in Michigan has been that way department for the first time in accomplished in the field of health the history of the service. education by Miss Marjorie Delevan.

Approximately $30,000,000 will be expended by the Michigan Bell Tele­ phone company this year for opera­ tion of its service, extension and maintenance essential to the conduct of its business, according to the com­ pany's present estimate for 1936. Of the total expenditures, the greater proportion will be paid out in Michigan, approximately $12,000,000 representing salaries and wages to the company's 7,500 employees. Of a total tax bill of over $4,000,000. feder­ al, state and miscellaneous local tax­ es the company will pay to the state of Michigan $2,622,577.65. A check for part of the state taxes was pre­ sented Tuesday. June 30, to Auditor General John J. O’Hara. The balance is to be paid the state before Novem­ ber.!. These taxes go to the primary school fund. Large quantities of the supplies and building materials required by the company this year also will be repre­ sented by expenditures in Michigan. These items include furniture, oil. gasoline. cleaning materials and equipment, paper, tons of printed mat­ ter. newspaper advertising space, electrict light and power, automobiles, trucks, batteries, tires, trailers, trans­ portatlon, lodgings and meals for traveling employees, paint, brick, lumber, cement, stone, steel and oth­ er building materials, plumbing fix­ tures and almost numberless other products. Almost every business and industry in the state will benefit. The telephone plants needs of the company this year call for the pur­ chase of 19,000 telephone pole^ 4.000 crossarms. 6,500 feet of duct in clay conduit. 400,000 feet of strand wire, 150,000 pounds of bare copper wire. 68,000,000 conductor feet of wire in lead-covered cable, and 65,000 handset telephones. Procurement of the raw materials and manufacture of these items will provide labor and wages for thousands of men and women. Net additions to the Michigan Bell company's plant this year will amount to $3,930,000, compared with $1,446,­ 000 in 1935. bringing the plant invest­ ment of the company up over $175.­ 000.000. Gross plant constructon will total $10,000,000, compared with $6.­ 887,000 last year. Current mainten­ ance of the telephone plant will cost $5,900,000. Net additions to plant will total $3,930,000 and will include $136,000 for land and buildings. $1,­ 515,000 for new central office equip­ ment $1,950,000 for telephone equip­ ment, $190,000 for exchange lines and $40,000 for long distance lines. Gain of telephones, which in 1935 was 32.000. is expected to reach 40.­ 000 this year. The first four months of the year gave the company a net gain of 17,000 telephones, and up to the first of May the company had re­ gained about one-third of the 210,000 telephones lost during the early years of the depression. Under the Michigan law. telephone, telegraph, express, railroad and car­ loaning companies pay taxes to the state in lieu of local taxes, upon prop­ erty generally used for conducting their businesses. The Michigan Bell company is the largest taxpayer of the utilities group. The tax money paid the state by these utilities is placed in the primary school fund and from there is distributed among all public school districts in proportion to the number of children of school age residing therein. The tax bill to be paid by the Mich­ igan Bell company this year repre­ sents $7.21 per telephone, based on tha avergae number of telephones op­ erated by the company during 1935. Net earnings from 170,000 telephones, or substantially one-third of the aver­ age number operated last year, will be required to meet the company's tax bilL Exhibit Routs Old Belief.

The first of these was early Sunday afternoon when the south side-wail of the frame Main street building owned and occupied by George VanDerventer as an accessory shop, was discov­ ered on fire. It was not an Inside fire, ant’ probably $25.00 will cover the damage. No insurance. Tuesday evening after some of the people had retired, the siren sounded again. Wm.

Cole's and was returning by Reed street when he saw the reflection of a fire in the house part of the unoccu­ pied former DX gas station and bouse which was found to be unlocked, with oiled rags or «aste afire. An investi­ gation will be'made. Wm. Shupp, fire chief, and fireman William Miller were inspecting Main street business places on Monday, the purpose being to discover ahy unne­ cessary accumulations which would create a fire hazard, and to also check various entrances and exits or other knowledge wh’?h might be of service to the firemen in case of a fire. The News would suggest a close watch of 'all empty buildings in the village at all times. Doors of these are opened in various ways, and many, many window panes have been broken, leaving the way open for much trouble. The Lentz Co.

FAMILY PARTY AT THE LAKE Mrs. Libbie Williams and some 50 relatives from Lansing, Grand Rap­ ids. Middleville and other points pic­ nicked Sunday at Morgan Park, Thornapple lake. Edward B. Smith, a highly respect­ ed citizen of Nashville and vicinity for the past 55 years, passed away at his State St. home in Nashville ear­ ly Wednesday evening of last week. Thirty-four years were spent on the farm, and the past twenty-one years in Nashville. For several years Mr. and Mrs. Smith were associated with their daughter, . Mrs. Myrtle Kring Nesman, in the operation of the Com­ mercial Hotel, where Mr. Smith made many friends among the travelling public. They retired from the opera­ tion of the hotel about eight years ago, and he has since spent his time in less active pursuits. Mr. Smith has been a familiar fig­ ure on the streets of our village and will be greatly missed by his host of friends. The funeral was conducted from the home at 2 p. m. Friday. By re­ quest of the deceased. Rev. A. L. Bin­ gaman of the First Evangelical church of Grand Rapids officiated. Mr. and Mrs. Will Hanes and daughter, Avah Swift, sang. The Knights of Pythias and Pythian Sisters attended in a body, with Pythian services conduct­ ed at the grave. Burial was made at Lakeview cem­ etery. and the bearers were J. Robert Smith, Charles Higdon. Tom Kay. L. Herryman, H. D. Wotring and Luman Surine. Arrangements were by Hess. Relatives and friends from away *'ho attended the funeral were. Mr. and Mrs. Merle Smith of Belmont, Mich., Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Pontius, Mrs. Leota Wade and Mrs. Maxine Francis of Canton, Ohio. Mrs. Cora Firestone of Middlebranch. Ohio, Mr. and Mrs. John-Pontius and Mrs. Net­ tle Evans of Akron, Ohio, Mr. and Mrs. Ed.

Stark county, Ohio. Dec. 6, 1855, the youngest of a family of seven chil­ dren. He passed away July 8, 1936, at the age of 80 years, seven months, and two days. He spent his childhood and young manhood on the farm where he was bom, coming-to Nashville at the age of 25 years, an d^pu rebasing with his brother, the late Wm. A. Smith, the farm known as the Wm. Smith farm, just west of the village. October 30, 1884, he was united in marriage with Anna Jacobs. Two years later he dissolved partnership with his brother and purchased the farm now owned by Lloyd Wilcox. In this home he lived, always so loyal to the community and neighbors in time of need. In this home the family consisting of three children were bom: Nellie. Mrs. Roy Brumm; Harry, who died in infancy; Myrtle. Mrs. Chas. Nesman. A son. Merle, was adopted into tho home. Twenty-nine years were spent Ln tha farm home before they retired to the present home in the village, where they have spent the past twenty-one. years. On October 30, 1934, they celebrat­ ed their golden wedding, surrounded by close relatives. Fifty-two years of unselfish devotion to his loved ones, and the very unusual character, his honesty and integrity won for him a host of friends who held him in the highest esteem. His greatest joy in later years was the companionship of the grandchil­ dren and great-grandchildren. He was an honorary member of Ivy lodge Nb. 37, Knights of Pythias, of Nashville, and always attended his lodge meetings when possible and held the teachings of the ritual in the highest esteem.

Friendship is a chain of gold Shaped in God’s all-perfect mold, • Each link a smile, a laugh, a tear, A grip of the hand, a word of cheer. Ah steadfast as the ages roll. Binding closer soul to soul, • No matter how far or heavy the load. Such is the journey on friendship's road. Friendship Road! Has thin road been marked “detour” during these : hard days? Or is a new four way pavement with new bridges over the rivers we used to stop and enjoy or the safety kind that carries one on and over the railroad tracks, being constructed? ' Whatever it is and however the highways are marked for travelling, on the highway maps we must travel more on "Friendship’s Road" if our small world and the larger one of our nation and the one which includes all the nations, we must get back to that road very clearly and definitely if this material civilization is to endure and the roads of unfriendliness and greed with pavement of lawlessness and things not honorable must be marked “Dangerous—Closed to'Traffic” and walled up for keeps. We have some large islands and some smaller ones of coral formation in this world of ours, how many of them would have been there if each coral in life had just "gone it bjfhlmselT’ ? There must be unity of pur­ pose and unity of mind as to desti­ nation to have a real Friendship's Road and have it lead somewhere, it can’t be back yonder, it must be for­ ward, for we must ever head forward and look backward only to keep us from making the old mistakes. Onward—Onward — on Friendship's Road, a road of beauty, no careless­ ness or lack of consideration of the others, careful driv.ng and apprecia­ tion of all the beauty about us—and a goal worth while back in our minds. Let's go. That’s real living. as concentration areas for the na­ tional guard and regular army troops participating. Preparing for the necessary water supply, 150 wells have been drilled, in addition to leasing the entire water system on the farm of A. M. Todd & Co. The 33rd division, consisting of Illinois national guard troops, will be quartered on the Todd farm for six days. One of the reasons for selecting this area for the maneuvers was because of the considerable sub-marginal lands there. Some of the troops will . be brought across Lake Michigan. To Keep Plates That is a rather in­ visible. genlous plan which Secretary of State Atwood is promoting as a means of putting an end to Illegible license Mr. Atwood has solicited the aid of gas station attendants, through the American Petroleum Institute, in see­ ing that automobile plates are kept clean. Coupled with the voluntary part of the plan, he would have the "state police instructed to bear down on drivers whose license plates are in need of cleaning. The proposal seems to have been shrewdly contrived to the end of lead­ ing the public to obey a regulation so universally disregarded that outand-out enforcement would create more resentment than public servants could be expected to endure. Clean license plates should have a rather important meaning. The hitand-run driver whose license plates are visible has less chance to get away. The automobile thief operates The need for clean license plates is* not the most vital need of the situa­ tion,, but It is one of the improve­ ments which must come along with progressive handling of the state’s ve­ hicular problems.

Regarded from the stand­ point of Christian Science, however, the word "authority" while still sig­ nifying power, ascribes that power entirely to God, the only Mind. An outstanding example of the true and scientific nature of authority is to be found in the seventh chapter of St Luke's Gospel. The story, well known to Bible readers, records the appeal of a certain centurion for Jams’ aid in healing his sick servant His declaration, !T also am a mar. set under authority," caused the Master to marvel at the understanding faith which enabled the centurion to dis­ cern in the power manifested by the Saviour indisputable evidence of the availabilitiy of divine authority to heal the sick. Viewed scientifically, man is never in authority, but correctly speaking, is under authority, reflecting Truth and Love in that realm of divine ac­ tivity wherein all the ideas of God ex­ ist in undisturbed harmony. Such is the real man's relationship to God. the Father, his divine sonship empowered by authority entirely free from res­ ponsibility other than that of com­ plete and willing obedience to divine decrees. Many of those who witnessed the healing and regenerating works of Jesus demanded to know by what au­ thority he was able to accomplish such marvels. At the conclusion of the Sermon on the Mount it is record­ ed that those who heard him were as­ tonished, "for he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes." To those who questioned him the Master explained that the power and authority he manifested were the reflected attributes of God. He said, "’The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth. these also doeth the Sen likewise." Irrefutable testimony as to the ever-present supreme power of God was given by Jesus in eloquent word.-; and in deeds charged with spiritual authority. He never spoke of a man’s responsibility for anything save his loyal obedience to God, for he knew and proved that to live in close union with God, divine Principle, is to gain a freedom which can be attained in no other way. Mary Baker Eddy writes on page 26 of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" "Divine Truth, Life, and Love gave Jesus authority over sin, sickness, and death.” We have the comforting as­ surance that, equipped with spiritual understanding, we, also, as the Mas­ ter promised, are enabled to deal au­ thoritatively with any erroneous con­ dition which may seem to hold us, or a sister or brother, in bondage. There are many instances in the Bi­ ble of divine authority having been specifically bestowed upon those who were obedient Thus, when God com­ missioned Moses in Mount Horeb to liberate the children of Israel from Egyptian bondage, he was giv^n au­ thority to deciare that Jehovah had sent him: “Thus ahalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM bath sent me unto you." The prophet Jeremiah and Ezekiel when called of God to carry out important missions, were given the command, "Be not afraid." Words to speak and unwavering cour­ age to utter them rewarded their obedient response to the divine com­ mands. Our beloved Master himself has left on record his own submission to divine authority in the words, “Not what I will, but what thou wilt.” If, at times, the call to divine ser­ vice finds us alow to respond, owing, perhaps, to fear or doubt creeping in. We have only to realize that a duty undertaken and accomplished in un­ hesitating obedience to God. can never fail, because it is supported by divine authority which ensures Its satisfac­ toryfulfillment Everyone needs to be alert to the obligations which his of the truth imposes upon ■ | him. In particular does he desire to obey < the Master’s injunction to beai the stick, a demand- referred to by Mrs. Eddy on page 335 of Science and Health, where she says, ‘'Like the Marriage Licenses. • Thos.

The summary will carry the amendments In the order in which they appear on the ballot (1) Given first place is an amend­ ment proposed by joint resolution of the legislature, which would permit police to offer as court evidence any weapon seized outside of a dwelling bouse regardless ol whether the seiz­ ure was authorized by a warrant or made during a proper arrest. (2) Second place on the ballot will go to another legislative-initiated pro­ posal. which would permit counties to Incorporate, restrict their tax rates, and their power to borrow and con­ tract debts. Counties, by referendum, could adopt a charter under which they could pass laws and ordinances relating to ail their municipal busi­ ness. The proposed amendment is loosely described' as a “country borne rule'* amendment. (3) A proposal to write into the constitution a prohibition against the collection of any tax on the s&ie of bread, milk, dairy and cereal pro­ ducts. meat, lard, shortening, fish, eggs, sugar, salt, spices, vegetables and fruit, whether canned or fresh, and prepared meals. The amendment was initiated by petitions. Sales tax accountants estimated its adoption would reduce revenues to their divi­ sion by approximately $12,000,000 a year. (4) A proposed amendment which would eliminate all local property taxes and substitute for them a state tax on income from real and personal property, and from all other sources. The state legislature would determine by general law the allocation of the proposed income tax reevnues back to local municipalities. A majority vote at the general elec­ tion would place any or all of the pro­ posed amendments into the constitu­ tion.

Rural of United St>t“ Apartment of Housewives To Attend Conference Agriculture. On Campus July 26 To 30. ------------------------------- Farm women from all sections of the state are being Invited to spend five days in rest, study and recreation on the campus of Michigan State col­ lege, East Lansing, during the annual Farm Women's Week Sunday thru Thursday, July 26 to 30. Activities in the campus for the week are ter­ minated in the annual Farmers' Day program Friday, July 31. In outlining the conference, R. W. Tcnny, short course director at the college describes the program as an opportunity for farm women in the problems, to have a week's vacation state to study home and community and rest to better meet these prob­ lems. to make new friends and meet old acquaintances, to enjoy the beau­ tiful campus and to gain inspiration. In brief, the program offers regis­ tration and a lawn supper Sunday af­ ternoon and evening. Monday, July 27, the women visitors will hear Dr. Sarah VanHoosen Jones, manager of her own farm near Rochester,' Mich. Her subject is “A Woman as a Farm Manager.” Clothing, foods and nu­ trition. home furnishing, home man­ agement and child development will be taken up in sections which the wo­ men can follow up during the week. During each day the women are urg­ ed to attend a different discussion group, participate in hobbies and en­ ter into the program of rest and re­ creation as well. Conclusion of the program is Thursday evening, July Operation of a bird frightening ap­ paratus that may save Michigan or­ chard owners much of their crops m future years is being undertaken by H. A. Cardinell, research associate in horticulture at Michigan State col­ lege. The first experiments in Alle­ gan county give promise of results, cspeciallly practical in small or­ chards. The equipment now under test consists of a calcium carbide gun which explodes at long or short inter­ vals. With the gun is a swinging and clatteringappartus that helps fright­ en away the marauding robins, star­ lings and other birds without killing them. At the end of the season after tests in various parts of the fruit belts in the state, the college will summarize findings. The experiment­ ers will describe the apparatus and present information so that orchard owners will be able to learn where the bird frightening equipment is practi­ cal or impractical, cost figures and usage. Farmers who expect to-be short of fall pasture for sheep or hogs, or those who expect to hog down corn will do well to sow rape in thv com field at the time of laying it by, says Professor George A. Brown of the animal husbandry department at Michigan State college. If sheep are to be used to help harvest the com, either rape or turnips can be sown in the com field at the time of the last cultivation. MRS. F. G.

EXCESSIVE HEAT BRINGS THOUSANDS INTO MICHIGAN The great volume of the traffic pouring across Michigan's southern boundary from the heat-stricken states to the south is Indicated by figures covering the tourist movement at the end of the Fourth of July week-end, released by the state high­ way department. The statistics gathered by the Sur­ vey division of the state highway de­ partment show that on July 5th 27,­ 340 cars bearing other than Michigan license plates passed four stations on important border highways. Reports from the state ferries at the Straits of Mackinac showed that on July 3rd the traffic exceeded, that of last year by over 79 per cent. On the Fourth the number of tour­ ists was so gVeat that the car ferry Chief Wawatam was put into service making the ferry fleet five vessels. 2458 cars were transported, the next to the greatest number in the history of the ferry service. On Labor Day. last year, 2625 vehicles were carried. —A truck driver on US-112 took his hot weather troubles philosophi­ cally.

Michigan farmers will save more than $257,000 during the next year in interest on land bank loans now out­ standing through the continuance of the 3 1-2 per cent rate by act of Con­ gress which was approved June 25, it was learned from the Federal Land Bank of St Paul. This same rate will also affect new as well as old land bank loans made through national farm loan associ­ ations and apply to all interest pay­ ments coming due before July 1, 1937. The 3 1-2 per cent rate which was enacted more than a year ago as a benefit to offset some of the adversi­ ties under which agriculture had been operating, was to have expired on June 30 this year.

Captain’s Radio Phone Call Brings Rescue to 14 as Ship Sinks at Sea The above pictures were taken In 1932. when radio telephone equipment wae first Installed on board the Fauci. It brought rescue to the Fauci’s captain and crew one February day this year when the ship sank 150 miles from shore. Not the dot* and dashes of the S.O.S-, traditional radio-telegraph signal of distress at sea, but volceto-voice conversation through two­ way radio telephone service between ship and shore, carrying all neces­ sary details and also assurance of Immediate assistance, brought res­ cue to CapL Patrick McHugh and his crew of 13 when the fishing schooner Gertrude M. Fauci sprang a leak and sank one day last winter about 42S miles out of Boston and 150 miles east ot Cape Sable, the southern tip ot Nora Scotia. It was the first time thst two-way radio telephone service for coastal vessels, a relatively recent development in the telephone art, ha* had occasion to serve directly in saving lives at sea. No Ships Ware Nearby Technical operator A. F. Coleman was in charge ot the marine radio telephone station ct the New Eng­ land Telephone and Telegraph Com­ pany st Green Harbor.

The cutter Cayuga was off Capa Cod, and could reach him in about 24 hours, the Coast Guard said. The Fauci could not remain afloat that long, Capt McHugh replied. They would radio a broadcast alarm to all ships in the vicinity to steam full speed to the Fauci's aid, the Coast guard stated; and CapL McHugh hung up the telephone to rejoin his men at the* pumps. The ’’Lemberg” Appears At Intervals CapL McHugh called the Coast Guard to learn ot tbe prog­ ress of the rescue. Several ships had radioed that they were on their way to the stricken vessel. Suddenly, at about 1 P. M.. CapL McHugh re­ ported that a beam trawler was in slghL He left the telephone at ones lo signa! the trawler. At 1:36 P. M. he called again to say that the traw­ ler Lemberg was alongside, and that no other rescuing vessels would be needed, except the Coast Guard cut­ ter Caynga to take him and his crew ashore. This word was relayed to the other rescue ships. At 2:39 P. M. the voice of CapL McHugh came over ths telephone again, this time to report that all hands had beau transferred to tho Lemberg except himself, the engi­ neer, and one man of the crew. And at 2:47 P. M. CapL McHugh made hla last telephone call from the good ship Gertrude M. Fauci: she waa settling rapidly and the three men remaining aboard would have to abaadon her at once.

Ranger, has traveled 61.­ 429 miles from June 4, 1934, when the ship was commissioned, up to June 27, 1936, a period of slightly over two years. The first cruise was a trip to South America, and the first Battle Problem was the 1935 maneuver to the mid Pacific. During the months ahead Uncle Sam’s nieces and nephews will hear much about the “forgotten man,” and the “remembered man." the "average citizen" and the “little fellow.” With the Fourth ai July having ushered^n the travel season and the curve of motor accidents swinging upward, we will hear also much about the “reck­ less driver” who contributes to the unsafe conditions on our streets and highways. But what about the “safe drivers.” who represent the great majority of law abiding motorists, and who, with care and caution, recognizing the rights of others, go quietly about their way preserving life and property Well, now we are going to hear about them. In an effort to focus attention on the millions of safe drivers—and there are many millions—a unique program Is under way to give them a place in the sun. It is the first national safe driver motorcade sponsored by the Automobile Club of Michigan, its af­ filiated clubs, and the C. L T. Safety Foundation. From the applications of hundreds of htousands of motorists there will be selected forty-nine drivers—one from each state and the District of Columbia—drivers whose records en­ title them to recognition. The rules are simple. Those entering must be active drivers who have driven a min­ imum of 50,000 miles in that period. They must have a record t^at will sljow not a single traffic accident since 1926. And, they must not have been convicted of any traffic violation.

The four are E. L. Wolfe, Z. K. Greene, K. W. Kauffman and W. A. McMullen. Living In widely separated parts of the country, they were visiting In St. Peters­ burg, Fla, last winter, and were unknown to one another until a news­ paper article brought them together. The artificial larynx waa developed at the Bell Telephone Laboratories, and la made available by the Bell Telephone Companies, at cost, to persons thus afflicted. Four men whose homes are in various parts of the country held an unusual meeting in SL Petersburg, Fla., last winter. E. L. Wolfe, Z. K. Greene, A. W. Kauffman, and W. A. McMullen by name, they were total strangers to each other, but they had one thing in common: tho gift of speech, once seemingly lost for­ ever, had been returned to them by science. That boon bound them to-' gether as no ordinary ties of ac­ quaintanceship could ever do. Each of the four had lost tbe power ot speech through the re­ moval of the vocal cords by surgi­ cal operation. Lach had later learned of the artificial larynx, a device which, substitutes a mechanical “voice box” for nature’s larynx and enables the user, after some prac­ tice, to speak freely and understand­ ably. All four men are now wholly dependent on their artificial lar­ ynxes for the ability to converse. The artificial larynx was devel­ oped at the Bell Telephone Lab­ oratories, is manufactured by the Western Electric Company, and is made available to sufferers from such operations through tbe asso­ ciated companies of the Bell Tele­ phone System without profit, at the cost of manufacture. The meeting of these four men was brought about by an item in a SL Petersburg newspaper which de­ scribed how Mr. Kauffman had lost his voice and then regained IL The other three saw the article and each went, Independently, to see Mr. Kauffman.

Operators Use "Verbal Short-Hand” In Completing Long Distance Calls Every day, in the United States, pearly 2,500,000 out-of-town tele­ phone calls are made, on the aver* age, many of which are speeded to completion with the help of operate Ing codes. Tbese codes might be called verbal short-hand. To the telephone user who over­ hears an operator spell a code word as his out-of-town call is advanced, these operating code* sound mys­ terious. On the contrary, they sim­ plify work and avoid confusion for the operator, because each code means only one thing and exactly the same thing to all Bell Telephone System operators throughout the country. Operating codes speed up the service for the telephone user, because they save time both in estab­ lishing the connection and in record­ ing its details on the toil ticket. Many Codes Are In Um Codes most frequently used are “ay” meaning "anyone who will talk”; "ag,” meaning "try again"; "by," indicating the line is busy; "Ik." that the party is being looked for; ”cf." meaning "cannot find”; "da," Indicating that the telephone does not answer; and "lw," mean­ ing that word has been left for the called person to call the out-of-town operator. Sometimes a long sentence or statement can be represented brief­ ly by a code. A good*xsmple of this h "arg cf/'.-This brief notation, written on A toll ticket or passed to another operator over a toll circuit, means “not registered at tbe- ad­ dress given and cannot be found there." The use of such codes has the farther advantage that the code always mean* the same thing and cannot be misunderstood, it atwo avoids variations in wording which might be misinterpreted by other operators. In cases where the called person has been unable to talk, and later notifies the operator that he or she Is ready to talk, the operator takes up a circuit to the originating office and says to the answering operator, for example, "New York, Cortlandt 7-4567, wh Mr. Jones on the line," the “wh" meaning "we have." The same cods applies to a telephone call that was not completed at the time made because of a busy tele­ phone or where the person wanted was not available. In cases where the distant person wishes to know who is calling, tho operator writes "wo," tbe code for “who is calling?" If two persons of the same name happen to be at the called telephone and the question is which one is wanted, the code "wx" is used to cover the inquiry. Haye Had Many Yun' Um If the person called is away from a telephone, the report is recorded on the telephone ticket, **u!5," for example, meaning that the celled person is expected in fifteen min­ utes. The code “ud" is used when it is not known when the called per­ son will be in his office or residence the day the call is placed, while "ux” mean* definitely that the called per­ son is not expected today. Where called persona are reported to b«» unknown at the telephones called, the operator recorda “tin," meaning “unknown.” Speeding telephone calls by codes dates back to tbs very early days ot long dtataace commnuicatloa. Dur­ ing the time they have been used, codes have proved their value in the savihr ot seconds that are quickly multiplied into minute*, hours and even days during each twenty-four 9'yurs, the cou' ry over �THE NAStniLLF.

A recent comparison of net returns made to patrons per pound butterfat received between nine creameries in Michigan and Indiana belonging to the Mid-West Producers Creameries, Inc., of which the local creamery is a member, showed the latter creamery ranking second highest. Being a co-operative creamery, the patrons arc assured of receiving the highest price possible during the flush season as well as during the short season when milk is scarce. During the flush season just past about $29,000.00 was paid out each month to patrons. This haa been made possible be­ cause of the loyalty of the many pat­ rons who appreciate sending to their own plant which provided them a de-irable market for their product when other planta were closed, and is still doing bo. The creamery cooperates also in helping patrons to buy their cans, strainers and other supplies, and has recently taken on cream separators for sale to the patrons at a consider­ able saving. NUMBER 3. NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, JULY 23, 1936 Damage to Michigan's trunk line highway system the last two weeks from teh blistering heat wave was es­ timated by State Highway Commis­ sioner Murray D. VanWagoner at $15,000. An inventory of the damage order­ ed by the commissioner revealed a to­ tal of 446 pavement "blow-ups" on trunk line pavements throughout the state. In addition, draw bridges on US-16 at Grand Haven and on US-31 at Charlevoix were so affected by the excessive heat that they would not “fit” when swung' together. The ac­ tual damage to the bridges, however, was negligible. Trunk lines in Calhoun county reg­ istered the greatest number of pave­ ment explosions. There were 50 "blow-ups" in that county. 30 in Len­ awee, 20 each In Monroe and Muske­ gon. 22 in Shiawassee, and 19 in Kal­ amazoo among the. ones hardest hit by the heat. The explosions were caused by.the expansion of the pavement beyond the capacity of the expansion joints. The state highway department erect­ ed bump signs where the "blow-ups" occurred pending repairs. Monday eve — Nashville Firemen's team and Hastings Triangle team at Nashville.

Fitzgerald Cites State’s Reserve Urges Planning In Tree Planting Village Council In Short Session Tay Castelein Unhurt In Auto Accident Harold J. Foster, Barry county Ag­ ricultural Agent, received today new rulings which will materially modify practices under the soil conservation program in Barry county. Farmers who are attempting to qualify on thia program this year should study the new rulings carefully. Many farmers are increasing their soil conserving crops this year by plantings of alfalfa and clovers on fields from which no other crop will be harvested this year. It has been permissible, however, to use cover or nurse crops of grain on these fields to aid in securing the. stand of legumes. This has been allowed with the under­ standing that the nurse crop would be clipped and let go back on the ground. Under the new ruling, if there 13 a good stand of legumes on the field the cover crop can be harvested for hay and the field still count as a soil conserving field. The second change is in regard to loss of seedings due to drought. Until this time the proof of compliance, on which soil building payments on new seeding of legumes would be made, depended on a stand of the legume at time compliance Is checked in the fall. Due to the drought many seedings In grains and alone have burned out and the new ruling provides that soil building and soil conserving payments will be made where good stands are not In evidence this fall if the farmer can prove that seedings were made in the spring in a workmanlike manner -and a seeding was obtained until our drought period. Proofs of this fact will be sale slips of seed purchased, signed statements by committeemen or neighbors that the seeding was made, and other things that might prove the fact. . The third modification announced is .as follows: Emergency forage crops may be planted on land devoted to soil conserving use where this soil conserving crop has burned out. In other words if a farmer has needed al­ falfa alone this spring and the alfal­ fa is gone he may now plant soy­ beans, sudan grass, etc., for an em­ ergency bay crop for harvest this year and still have the field count as soil conserving. The sotl coiiserving program, due to weather conditions, has changed ma­ terially from the way County Agent Foster announced it last spring. Mr. Foster states, however, most changes are to the advantage of the farmers as well as the consumer. • The county office is now busy ad­ justing individual farm basis to meet requirements as laid down by the state committee. An adjustment of about 8 per cent downward on the 1935 crops is required to meet the 1933-34 crop acreage which is the basis of the program. Districts Must Publish Financial Statements Dr. E. B. Elliott, Slate SupL Of Pub­ lie Instruction, Cails Attention To Laws Governing Legal Notices. _ Nearly one thousand graded, rural agricultural and township school dis­ tricts in Michigan will be required to publish in a legally qualified newspa­ per, proceeding of their annual meet­ ings and a financial statement of the year’s business, on or before August 3. Dr. Eugene B. Elliott, Superin tandent of Public Instruction, caUa at­ tention to the fact that the financial statement must be more than a publi­ cation of totals—it must be a com­ plete summary of the year’s business. The purpose of this law is to give the people an exact dollar and cents picture of how their tax moneys are being spent, and also the financial condition of the districts at the time of the report The Department of Public Instruction during the past year directed the distribution of thir­ ty-five million dollars of state funds to the sixty-seven hundred school dis­ tricts. This is an increase of thirteen million dollars over the year 1934. These published statements will show to what extent this distribution of , state funds has relieved the school financial problem. It will also show to what extent state aid has reduced local taxes. bcbgebs REUNION TO BE HELD AUG.

Michigan Knowledge that the state Finance*. of Michigan will end its fiscal year not only with a balanced budget but also with a considerable surplus in its treasury is a matter for solid satisfaction.

Business recovery and increase of customer purchasing power have frrpu^ht about a large increase tn the reyeausa The state hM enjoyed a business­ like frugal administration which has "resisted teinpUtion to swerve from a policy of good economy. Gov.

In doing that, be should keep in mind the dangerous fire hazards that come with the cold weather—hazards which have caused millions in proper­ ty damage and thousands of deaths, and yet can be easily and inexpensive­ ly eliminated. One of the most prolific causes of fire is heating equipment. The best of furnaces need periodic inspection and overhauling, as do pipes and chimneys. It is obvious that such a job can't be adequately accomplished in winter, when the furnace is in con­ stant use.

As evidence of how these exposi­ tions make the 48 states neighbors, as it were, the heavy increase in west­ bound traffic through the city of Salt Lake is a good example. W. D. Rischel of the Utah State Auto associa­ tion has stated that the San Diego exposition is the major tourist magnet west and has been of immense value to Salt Lake City and the mountain region. Undoubtedly every city in the west and towns along the high­ ways have felt the benefit of increaseed tourist traffic, as have the rail­ roads and steamship lines. The California-Pacific International Exposition at San Diego stands uni­ que in such undertakings in that it has been developed as a thing of beau­ ty rather than being merely specta­ cular. Anyone, who is familiar with the relaxed atmosphere and customs of the California Southland toward the Mexican border, the romantic set­ tings, the points of historical interest and Old World charm, will be delight­ ed with the "difference’' of the expo­ sition in San Diego. Here a modern review of industry and business has been combined in a "leisurely manner" with charming surroundings. One is able to see the latest in modem inventions and ideas ift a setting of native beauty that takes the rough edges off our high­ speed life by combining the wonders of nature and invention In a most restful manner. Yes, indeed, such expositions make neighbors of us all and furnish us with new ideas on how to live a more pleasant life, _— - - The Invisible Guest. a new, sinister Invisibk Guest in a few short years has made every home his dwelling place and every American citizen his victim. He is the hidden tax. Now he sits at the table and follows the round of work and play, goes with his victims to the shower: shares the morning toast; boards the same elevated, trol­ ley, or automobile; looks in at the of­ fice; elbows along to restaurants, mov­ ies or prize fights. He is here, there and everywhere. There passed through the hands of the hidden-tax collector in the year ending June 30, 1935, approximately $2,000,000,000 in Federal taxes alone; "Invisible Commodity Taxes” ac­ counted for 00 per cent of all federal revenues, according to Pres*dent Roosevelt. Take bread for Instance. The In­ visible Guest's share of every loaf is three slices. (He has tucked 53 tax­ es in with every loaf; within three years the cost of bread has increased $94,082,000. On pork chops ... he will claim one of three. Six cents on every package of cigarettes are for taxes. From every dollar paid to the electric light and power company ten cents is passed on to the government in the form of taxes. In 1935 the cost In taxes and licenses for operat­ ing all motor vehicles in the United States was almost equal to the amount received by the manufactur­ ers of motor vehicles. State and city taxes are accepted by all, as they should be, as essential to the orderly conduct of government But it is the taxes hidden in the ne­ cessities of daily living and enjoy­ ment that have propped up the too heavy structure of federal debt.

The second, put for­ ward by those who object to the first as being prohibitive rather than pro­ gressive, would provide facilities for giving the youngster a proper under­ standing of the automobile and his re­ lationship to it This would mean an extension of the present educational trend toward teaching good driving in the high schools. The Hi-Y can fit splendidly into this scheme. It is precisely the orga­ nization to extend the principles of traffic control learned in the class­ room into extra-curricular activity. Setting up a traffic control council, formulating a school traffic control program, developing good driving at­ titudes are projects for which the Hi-Y is well equipped. We may hope that the Hi-Y on the highway will prove to be a strong constructive in­ fluence in making the country's young drivers good drivers. “I Am For "I am for peace: blit Peace.” when I speak, they are for war." complained the Psalmist (Psalms 120.7); His words might be applied in this way: Many people believe they are for peace. Theoretically they may be; but they are thinking of it chiefly as ces­ sation of international embroilments. Certainly national embroilments must first be overcome, and within these are the civic, and within these the individual eruptions and flare-ups. If, however, the individual claims he is for peace, but does not hold his thoughts constantly responsive to the common good, when he speaks be may find that he is breathing out war in sentiments which, if not hate, are of the same kin, and need only to devel­ op to betray their lineage. Quick temper, suspicion, self-aggrandize­ ment, thoughts of jealousy, murmuringa of resentment, covetous desires, sharp notes of criticism—are not these kindling with which to start family bickerings, industrial and busi­ ness breads, civic feuds, national Strife ? Since charity begins at home, so also does peace. The master Christian traced all ac­ tion to its origin — thought — and Christian Science teaches us that our first concern is with our entire pro­ cess of thinking. Only by cherishing and exercising the sentiments which make for true peace are we able to speak words instinct with peace, and make of our deeds living messengers of peace and good will. What simple, loving counsel Paul gives in one of his letter* (Galatians 5:26): "Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another." And in Hebrews we read (10:24), "Let us consider one another to pro­ voke unto love and to good works." We cannot fail to see how sorely in need of healing the world thought is, nor how necessary it is to rouse co­ operating, brotherly activity by indi­ vidual rightmindedness and righteous example. Spiritualization of thought alone makes this possible . Sentimen­ tal theorizing, material methods, vain­ glorious worldly ways never bring peace to the individual or to the na­ tion. Isaiah foresaw that the Messiah would usher tn the perfect ideal of peace. One of the most beautiful ti­ tles he gave the awaited messenger of God was "The Prince of Peace." An­ gelic voices announced the advent of Christ Jesus as the brlnger-in of peace and good will on earth. And when he was about to leave this earthly scene, be gave the beatific promise (John 14:27j: "Peace I leave with you. my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give 1 unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." It is proved beyond all parleying that the world, in the world’s way, cannot give peace. How many troubled thoughts of fear disturb our fellow men! Christ Jesus promised that be would not leave his followers comfortless; nor did he. He promised to send the Comforter, “*the Spirit of truth," to abide with us forever. And "the’ Spirit of truth"—ail the truth of Splr, filed, order determining heirs entered. Est. John H. Hullngs.

REDUCED TELEPHONE RATES EFFECTIVE ON THE DATES SHOWN BELOW By order of the Michigan Public Utilities Commission, dated July I, reductions are made in certain telephone rates and charges in the Nashville exchange. On rural lines the charge for the upright or desk type telephone is reduced from 25 cents a month to 10 cents, and will be eliminated entirely after the customer has had that type of telephone in service continuously for 18 months. The charge for the hand telephone is reduced from 25 cents a month to 1 5 cents, except on rural lines where it remains at 25 cents, and will be eliminated entirely, as at present, after the customer has had that type of telephone in service continuously for 18 months. The above reductions will be effective in the case of present customers on August 16. Reductions are also made in the charges for installing and moving telephones, and for changing the type of tele­ phone instrument. For instance, the charge for installing a business telephone where there is no instrument already in place, is $2.50; for a residence telephone where there is no instrument already in place, it is $ 1.50. Those reductions became effective Saturday, July 1 I. Effective August 16. charges for rural multiparty ser­ vice beyond six miles from the base rate area are reduced. Monthly rates for other residential and business service are unchanged except that the four party business service is discontinued, and two party business service will be furnished at the former four party business rate. Telephone service now represents greater value than ever before. To place an order, or to obtain further in­ formation, call, visit or write the Telephone Business Of­ fice.

Modifications In the regulations governing the.1936 federal soil con­ servation program in Michigan and other corn belt stateu have been set up so that the effects of heat and lack of rainfall on fields will not work ton great a hardship with farmers partiipating in the program. According to Maurice Doan, chair­ man of the Michigan Agricultural Conservation committee, encourage­ ment is being given farmers to enable them to produce extni feed and for­ age for* fall and winter feeding, to preserve all available forage for live stock feed and to provide as large an acreage os possible in soil conserving crops for 1937. In describing the modifications. Claude R. Wickard, acting director for the north central division .state which Include Michigan, is informing state committees that an additional revision provides for farmers who fail to ob­ tain stands in fields seeded to soil con­ serving crops. Acceptance of proof will be granted so that farmers can obtain cash grants if the failure to obtain a good stand was caused by conditions beyond the control of the The wording of the modifications is farmer. as follows: Good stand of soil-conserving crop on land from which a grain hay or an­ nual legume hay Is harvested is class­ ed as soil-conserving — Land from which a crop of grain hay or annua! legume hay, such as soybeans and field peas, has been harvested in 1936 will be classified as soil-conserving provided a good stand of a soil-con­ serving crop is growing on this land then performance is checked later in the year. The kind. raS-. and time of seeding the soil-conserving crop will be subject to recommendations made by the State Agricultural Conserva­ tion committee. Proof o’f performance other than a good stand—Farmers who have seed­ ed soll-conaerving crops in accord­ ance with good farming practice but •ho have lost such crops because of drought Insect infestations, or other conditions beyond their control, may qualify for soil-conserving and soil­ building payments on this land. It will be necessary, however, that these farmers -provide sufficient evidence that soil-conserving crops were seeded in accordance with good farming prac­ tice. Prior to this modification, a ’ood stand of soil-conserving crops constituted the only acceptable proof of performance in the North Central region. Emergency forage crop plantings— Land which has been devoted to a soil-conserving use may be used after this date for the planting of an emer­ gency forage crop for harvest in 1936 without changing the classification of such land. Land upon which emer­ gency forage crops are to be planted, however, will not be classified as soil­ conserving if there is a good stand of a soil-conserving crop on such land, emergency forage crops Include the sorghums, sudan grass, soybeans, mil­ lets, and other similar forage crops.

Iron and steel arc recognized as the basis of the industry oi the manufacturing centers oi the mid­ dle west, and the great producers oi iron and steel have combined, m intensely interesting exhibits, to show not only the extent to which manufacturing processes have been carried but also to demonstrate in striking fashion the historical begin­ nings of the industry. From a graphic portrayal of the production and ship­ ment of the ore, coal and limestone used in blast furnaces and steel mills to moving models of giant machines of manufacture, the exposition vis­ itor is able to study the industry to a point where books could not take him. . . There are also interesting exhibits of many articles of manufacture, from machine tools and steel house frames to office and household equipment Various lines of food products are shown, and there are automobiles, farm tractors, heating ' and air conditioning units, printing presses and almost everything which helps to make up the equipment for modern living.

So numerous have been the requests of trailer-coach users for electricity in the state parks during the past two years, that park authorities have decided to install electrical servicing equipment in 20 of the state parks having the heaviest attendances. A nominal fee will be charged for electric lighting and power service, depending upon the number of outlets in the coach to be served. Coaches having only lights and radio equip­ ment, for instance, will be assessed 25 cents for three days or a maximum charge of 50 cents a week. Coaches having more outlets than those mere­ ly for radio and lighting, will be charged a maximum rate of 75 cents a week. Frank J.

That 32,500,000 which Prof. Tug­ well, head of the Resettlement Ad­ ministration, is going to spend in re­ settling 400 families in the Ironwood section, would give Nashville more of a “lift” than a certain brand of cig­ arette we’ve been reading about, we are sure—$6250 a family for 400 fam­ ilies. Even county seat residents would notice us, even if it wasn’t campaign time. Ford has made 24,000,000 automo­ biles, but rides a bicycle for his health, and here’s one on retirement by this motor manufacturer: "Retire? There’s only one way to retire” he said not long ago. “That’s to retire every night in time to get up early to go to work again.” Funny what you miss when you’re old fashioned and have furniture and live in a house—that is, when you're not at business, in conference, or something. Here we were, sweltering and taking it last week and on the job, while a blizzard was raging in some little mining town in Colorado, blocking the roads and bending the trees over. Oh. well, we can remem­ ber a few months back, say Febru­ ary, when we weren’t perspiring much and our highways were blocked. And we took that, too, because it was ours. But most of us bad an idea then that it would be fine to have warmer wea­ ther again and no fires to feed to keep the place warm. For another extreme, there was the story last week of a real “hot house” with the family spending its time in the open air trying to keep cool, only to find that in addition to summer heat the oil-burning furnace was doing full duty. And that was something else. In a book called “The Hoover Ad­ ministration,” published by Scribners and written by Prof. William Stvr Myers of Princeton university and Walter H. Newton, insistence is made that the battle of the depression was won in the summer of 1932 and that the coming of the new deal was di­ rectly responsible for the banking crisis of February, 1933. In Novem­ ber, 1932, Mr. Hoover asked the in­ coming administration for coopera­ tion, the authors say, but failed to Everyone in Bulgaria is obliged to contribute one day’s salary or wages yearly for helping the unemployed.

VxnWagoner, state | highway commUnioner, has annou-;ced that right-of-way haa been obtained on the final link of the proposed shoreline highway between Regers City and Cheboygan. Tbe commissioner said that agree­ ment* had been negotiated with ^ranklin-Clark Brown and assoc ates, cf Chicago, for right-of-way over the ; propose drute from the Ocqueoc River to the Cheboygan county line, a dis- ■ tance of about eleven miles. “The agreements were closed after two year® at negotiation*. , Meanwhile the final route of the shoreline highway at the J. H, Hoeft State Park was near determination. A survey of a new route, representing a compromise between that sought 1 y the state highway department and na­ tional and state park authorities. Ib now under way. Philip K. Fletcher, ctatc conservation commissioner ap­ pointed to confer with the state high­ way department on the route, has tentatively agreed to the survey. Commissioner Van Wagoner hailvd the right-of-way agreements as "do­ ing away with tbe final legal obstacle toward completing thisi impci*ant shoreline highway." While the com­ missioner did not indicate as to when this section could be programmed, he pointed out that It had been placed un two previous programs only to be withdrawn because of the right-ofway difficulties. Out of 38.5 miles ovei the proposed shoreline route between Cheboygan >nd Rogers City, 22.5 miles have been graded including 5 1-2 miles that has been surfaced with gravel from the Hoeft State Park west. In addition to this work, the grad­ ing and drainage of a 23-mlle stretch from Rogers City southeast to the Presque Isle county line is now under construction under the cooperative program of the WPA and the state highway department. "This entire development," Com­ missioner Van Wagoner said, “is a major phase of our ultimate plans for a continuous shoreline highway—the Huron Shore Drive—between Bay City and Cheboygan. “Wc arc also improving the south end of this great new highway. At the present time we are constructing a 31-fobt concrete pavement on 5.2 miles of US-23 between Kawkawlin and Linwood. The widening of US-23 to 31 feet from Bay City northwest is scheduled for construction on out fed­ eral aid program fur the current fis­ cal year. Nearly 13 miles of M-72 is also under construction for a 20-foot concrete pavement in Alcona county. “When the entire route is complet­ ed It should be one of the most at­ tractive to tourists of any highway in the state. This route is a fine illus­ tration of our policy of developing shoreline routes to stimulate tourist businesa" NATIONAL REEMPLOYMENT SERVICE MOVES OFFICE The National Reemployment Service will move its administrative state quarters to 170.1-5 Washington Boule­ vard Building. 234 State street, De­ troit The office of the Veterans’ Place­ ment Service for Michigan, which is a unit of the United States Employ­ ment Service, will move into the same building^ in Room 1805.

Naval Training Station Great Laks. Ill., has completed one year of operation since its official re­ opening on July 1, 1935. During this period 3071 apprentice seamen were received .from the various Naval Re­ cruiting Stations in the Mid-West, and of thia number 2041 have com­ pleted the twelve weeks course of in­ struction. The remainder are still in training. Upon graduation, moat of these young men were sent directly to sea for duty on ships of the Unit­ ed States ueet, while a few, 249 to be exact, were transferred to Naval Trade Schools for advanced training as specialists, such as electricians, musicians, machinists, etc. As evi­ dence of the high type of young men being recruited into our navy, less than one per cent of the men receiv­ ed at the Training Station have been discharged as unfit, and those princi­ pally for physical reasons. The navy yard at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, is now being used for the repair of the larger ships of the navy. The yard is scheduled to make rou­ tin- repairs this summer to a battle­ ship, light cruiser, heavy cruiser, repairahip, the hospital ship Relief, and an oil tanker. Pearl Harbor is about ten miles west of Honolulu. The yard has been used for emergency repairs. ton. when returning from duty in the Asiatic fleet, had a pennant 575 feet long. Tbe U. 8.

Charles Lane of Charlotte, who was here to investigate on Monday. The third and worst of the three fires, started with an explosion in the unused shed at the rear of the George Vandeventer auto accssories shop about 9:80 Thursday night, doing con­ siderable damage before it was extin­ guished. Wm. Miller, who operates the HiSpeed Gas station next door, had just closed up for the night and gone to his car at the rear of the station, and near the scene of the explosion, the force of which knocked him down and out As soon as he came to, he rush­ ed to the fire station in the same block and turned in the alarm, and joined by Clarice Greenfield, from the Star Theatre, Mr. O'Leary, now of Nash­ ville. and a former Detroit city fire chief, the fight began, with the three men beginning work in three minutes after the explosion, the other men of the department arriving in double quick time. Mr. Miller's presence and the quick response and effective work of the fire department savd a heavy loss, which might have swept the whole block. Had the explosion come at a later hour, there might have been many lives lost also. As it was, the flames, which roared skyward, spread to the secorffi floor in which furniture was stored, the smoke and water damaging the used portion of the building as well. Engineer Olin had rushed to the pump house, so as to keep the w*ater supply plentiful. Gib Freeland of Battle Creek, and related to the Tip Hills who live next door on the north side and were ab­ sent, rushed their household goods oute There was no insurance on the building or contents. There was an unexplainable out­ side daytime fire on the south side of the building on Sunday, July 12, and then on the night of July 14 the re­ flection of a fire in the old house at the old DX station was seen by Wm. Miller, as he drove by. Oiled rags were found there. So it looks as though a fire-bug had started the three fires—and there were three farm fires in the county early Sunday morning, which caused suspicion of incendiarism and caused damages estimated at about $5,000.

About 1500 persons who have been using the six-months automobile stickers, were without the necessary new plates late on the afternoon of Wednesday, July 29. ' Between 2.800 and 3,000 half-year stickers had been issued from the Hastings office this year. About 7,000 passenger plates and 2,000 commercial and veteran licens­ es have been issued from the Barry county office since January 1. Mrs.* Tyler, branch manager, stated that considerable delay was occasion­ ed by misunderstanding of the new. ruling requiring both the certificate of ownership and title when applying for plates. About 50 per cent of-the persons applying last week Wednes­ day did not have the necessary papers to comply with the new ruling and. were sent back after standing in line waiting to get their plates. Extra help was provided at the of­ fice to take care of the last minute rush Thursday and Friday. U. B. Camp Meeting On At Barnaby Park Wm. H. Goraline. 79, one of the most widely known farmers in Cal­ houn county, former stock buyer in this section, and cousin of Fred Parks, deceased husband of Mrs. Cora Parks, died in a Battle Creek hospital Thurs­ day. He had been in failing health since the death of his wife in May, 1935, but had been seriously ill but a month. He was bom in Newark, New York, but when 10 years old came to Pennfield which was thereafter his home. During the period of the World war, he was active in the organization of the Calhoun county Farm Bureau. He was also actively interested in the Battle Creek Farm Bureau associa­ tion from the time of its organization. Among his many activities in the in­ terests of farmers and farming, was his work as county director of the fight against the com borer in 1928. He handled farm loans for the City National bank over a period of two years until his health failed. He also had charge of the affairs of the well known Knight farm on US-12 until its sale a short time ago.

Club luncheon, called up­ on Nazi aviation leaders today to re­ alize the responsibility they bear for the deadly weapons they have created. Aviators, he said, “unlike the builders of the first dugout canoe, have lived to see their harmless wings of fabric turned into carriers of des­ traction—even more dangerous than ■ the guns of a battleship. “We have lived to carrj' on our shoulder* the responsibility for the results of our experiments, which in other fields have been passed on to future generations. While we have been drawing the world closer together in peace, have stripped the armor from every nation in war. “It is no longer possible to shield the heart of a country with its army." . (Lindbergh has made remarkably few public appearances or speeches in the United States. However, he and Dr. Alexis Carrel, his co-worker in science, have accepted an Invitation to demonstrate their “artificial heart" to a Copenhagen Scientific Congress August 10.) Lindbergh dcsc. 'bed what he has seen in Europe as "serious." “We must look for a new type of security," he said he realized when he saw "within a day or two the damage which could be done which no time can ever replace.” This new security, he declared, must be "dynamic and not static" and must be “security which rests in in­ telligence and not forts." The colonel's address came while Germany pointed out its accomplish­ ments in military and civil aviation. ellmiated or minimized. It publishes forms whereby a home-owner or in­ dustrial executive can go over his place or residence or factory and find out just how well protected it is against the chance of fire. It has created a model building code which has been adopted by many communi­ ties of all sizes, and which prevents the erection of structures which are functionally dangerous in the matter of fire hazards. It has also prepared a model arson law which has been a splendid ally in punishing and dis­ couraging the worst of criminals, the fire-bug. It maintains a testing laboratory, where all manner of machines, house­ hold devices and building materials are tested and, if found safe from fire, are given a certificate of approval Some of the most ghastly fires in American history have occurred in schools. The stock companies are ceaselessly working to teach public officials how our places of learning may be protected from fire. Every citizen of this country bene­ fits from that work, directly and in­ directly. Our annual fire loss is still too great—but these activities have prevented it from attaining vast heights. And, most important by far, they have saved thousands of lives. Byproducts The public is familiar Of WPA. with the merits and faults of work relief under the Works Progress Adminis­ tration—the faults including high cost lower efficiency than contract labor, and various inequalities due to politics and other causes. There are certain by-products of the system, however, which people generally do not think of, but which are likely to add to the cost and perhaps be a lia­ bility for years to come. News dispatches last week told of a series of lawsuits started by labor unions in the east to force the gov­ ernment to grant sick leave and a 26­ day annual vacation to all WPA em­ ployees—including those taken from the relief rolls. -The y argue that when persons are on WPA work they are federal employees, just like clerks at Washington, and that the govern­ ment ought to give them sick leave and a month’s vacation, even though .he job is created on purpose to re­ lieve them from want. If that comes to pass, of course work relief will cost more than it does already. But there is another possibility that may entail much greater cost- It is the likelihood of pensions under the Security Act on account of injuries, suffered or claim­ ed, and the possibility of special leg­ islation providing compensation for such Injuries. Personal Injuries are incident to all work. They are especially frequent among WPA workers—partly be­ cause of inefficient management and discipline and partly because a good hare of the workers are doing unfa­ miliar work, and many of them inex­ perienced or unskillful in any manual labor. Thus we find that in New York alone there were 82.050 acci­ dents in six months, or more th^n 60,­ 000 a year. With, at most, only about 240,000 employed that means an accident rate of more than 25 per cent a year—a rate unheard of in private employment If that rate holds good throughout the country the annual total would be hundreds of thousands. By the time ork relief is ended the number of those who were injured, or claimed to be, may exceed the number of disabil­ ities resulting from the late war. If that should be the case, would there not be a movement to compen­ ■ sate them by pensions or in some oth- Fighting Fire The principal work On AH Fronts, of the fire Insurance industry is to pro­ businesses tect individuals and against ruin in case a fire strikes property.

Whatever it did the tax­ payers would pay for. Every possible weapon is used in this war. The National Board writes and ers of the future will not be rich men pubibthes Invaluable booklets diacus­ and corporations paying income taxindustries, and tens how they may be direct and unseen taxes. Already that is true, and it will be more true every year. Already the government raises only a third «f its revenue from Incom? taxation; the other two-thirds comes from the indirect and unseen taxes—custom duties, excise taxes and various other taxes that cither come out of the consumer directly or add indirectly to his cost of living. So government expenses, either now or in the future, cannot be looked up­ on with equanimity by anybody, rich or poor. Every’ dollar spent at Wash­ ington must be raised by taxes, and they will fall on the poor people and those of moderate means more heav­ ily than upon the rich—for the simple reason that the poor people and those of moderate means are so much more numerous that their total income is much more than that of the rich. That applies to all spending, whether work relief or anything else. The present high cost and the future pos­ sibilities of the PEW system are only an illustration.—Adrian Daily Tele­ gram. Many people, both before and during the present age of mechanical ingenuity, have taken pride in callings involving manual labor, and have found their principal joy, as well as their means of livelihood, in their ‘.oily tasks. Ev­ en though they may not have had the comforts which some now share, they have had the solace of loving their work' and constantly striving for greater perfection in it To them, work and worship have been compat­ ible. There have been sculptors and painters, goldsmiths. ' woodcarvers, masons, and many other craftsmen who have regarded their callings as sacred responsibilities and thus have enriched the world with masterpieces, some of which have survived through centuries. Handicrafts and other work demanding ability and skill have satisfied the worker's desire for ex­ pression. He is content who loves his railing, and never doubts that his right station In life is that to which he is called in daily living and en­ deavor. May it not be that the unrest now apparent among the world's workers is due to the fact that work is re­ garded as something separate from the business of living’ Then, too, many feel that they are just doing pieces of work, disconnectedly, and so to them their occupation lacks signi­ ficance and dignity. They need the sense of being usefully engaged in definite-* tasks, the satisfying con­ sciousness of being necessary to their generation. In short, they need a calling. The Bible mentions several individ­ uals as having been divinely called to exalted positions, notably, Moses Aaron, and Samuel. And it is also re­ corded in th? thirty-fifth chapter of Exodus (30-33) that the Lord “called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, . . . and . . . filled him with the spirit of God. in wisdom, in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmaship; ... to devise curious work-, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in the cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of wood." Aided by other “wise heart­ ed" men, Bezaleel executed the fur­ nishings of the tabernacle. From the account it appears that he was divine­ ly called to his task and divinely en­ dued with ability to perform it. Thus it is seen that one may be truly call­ ed to any station in life. The nature of the task does not matter if spirit­ ual power is manifest in the doing of it Referring to the influences of the truth revealed by Christ Jesus, Mary Baker Eddy writes in "Miscellaneous Writings" (p. 166), "Like the leaven that a certain woman hid in three measures of meal, the Science of God and the spiritual idea, named in this century Christian Science, is leaven­ ing the lump of human thought, until the whole shall be leavened and all materialism disappear;*' and she adds: "This spiritual idea, or Christ, enter­ ed into the minutiae of the life of the personal Jesus. It made him an hon­ est man. a good carpenter, and a good man. before it could make him the glorified." The leavening power of Truth is at once felt by one who turns to Christian Science with an open mind, sincerely desiring to find the right path out of his difficulties, and to be taught of God. The most trivial duties are invested with Importance; monotony disappears from the daily round. ‘ As human thinking submits more and more to the spiritual idea, it finds the commonplace relationships and ex­ periences glorified. Right living be­ comes W1UW coherent. CVUClUll. The 4 sense v* of drifting is dispelled. A very important Immediate result is the removal of care and the burdensome sense of personal responsibility.

It is estimated that over half a million tax-payers took advantage of the special concessions that were made for their benefit. Back taxes for 1932 and prior years were put on a ten-year plan, and the first tenth-part was paid. Now the second part, again ten per cent, is due. You must now make this sec­ ond payment, with a 4% interest J tage you won by coming under the ten-year plan. Note: If you have not yet put your bac{ taxes for 1932 and prior years on the 10-Year Plan there is still time for you to do so. F, for any reason, you failed to put your taxes for 1932 and prior years on the 10-year plan last year, you can still do so by making the first two payments, with interest at 4%—plus a small additional charge on the payment you missed last year.

SAFETY COUNCIL | URGES SAFE DRIVING The Michigan State Safety Council advises that observance by all motor­ ists of the following 11 safe driving rules will make life and property saf­ er on Michigan highways. 1. Set speed according to conditions । of traffic highway surface and of tbe motor vehicle Itself. 2. Keep to extreme right hand side ■ of highways when going over hills. | 3. Overtake and pass only when, without doubt, it is safe to do so. 4. Keep as far aa is reasonable to the right of lane and centerline pave- i ment markings. On three and four lane highways, use inner lanes for: passing only. 5. Readily give way to the right at sound of horns of overtaking vehicles. 6. Slow down for intersections. ] 7. Slow down when approaching’ hill tops. 8. Slow down when approaching pe­ destrians. . 9. Make right and left turns care­ fully and be sure your signals can be seen a hundred feet from the turn. 10. Observe traffic lights and stop signs. 11. Park only at a distance from the traveled portion of the highway. Approximately 75 per cent of the motor vehicle collisions on Michigan highways result from disregard of these rules.

A. E. Kidder’s Son-in­ Law Fatally Injured Crushed By Heavy Refrigerator Coils At The Olds Motor Works In Lansing. - Joseph D. Wood. 29. son-in-law of Assistant Attorney General and Mrs. Arthur Kidder, farmer residents of Nashville, was one of two men fatal­ ly injured Monday morning about 8:30, when crushed beneath heavy refrigeration coils they were helping to install in the engineering building of the Olds Motor Works, a third man escaping with minor injuries. Mr. Wood, residing at 1431 Corbett street. Lansing, and Alvin J. Adams, 921 West Genessee. were dead upon admission to St. Lawrence hospital. Rescuers had excavated their bodies by using* acetylene torches to cut away sections of the refrigerator units under which they were pinned. There were four men in the room at the time, the two who were crush­ ed to death, Ernest Biesel, 800 Smith Ave., who was bruised about the hlps, and Charles Ash,’ 3309 North Cedar, who escaped injury. This Installation crew were said to be nominally employees of the Olds Motor Works, but were being tempo­ rarily employed by the York Ice Ma­ chine Co. of Detroit Mr. Wood and Mr. Adams were in the aisle between the colls, when the units tipped over suddenly, pinning them under, though they had been bolted to the floor and shored up as added precautions, after some of them had previously shifted slightly. An investigation was immediately started by the assistant general man­ ager of the Olds Motor Works and the factory manager. Mr. Wood married Madeline Kid­ der. who survives with three children. Madeline Louise, 4. Joseph. 17 months, and David Russell, 5 months. Mrs. Wood and daughter were re­ ported to be visiting Detroit relatives at the time of the fatal accident Mr. Wood had returned to Lansing Sun­ day night and someone was caring for the younger children. MRS. WILL HYDE CAUGHT HAND IN POWER WRINGER Mrs. Will Hyde, operating the pow­ er wringer on her washing machine Monday morning, caught her right hand in the wringer, and instead of shutting off the power, pulled her hand out. causing a very painful in­ jury, necessitating the use of clamps and the taking of seven or eight stit­ ches. The flesh on the back of the hand was cut and loosened below the knuckles, and was tom from the thumb up the first finger. She was brought to Dr. Morris office, where he gave the necessary attention, and Mr. Hyde, who was already in town, was located by Earl Olmstead, and reached Dr. Morris' office just before his wife arrived. They had been planning on a sojourn at Gull lake, for the camping and conference per­ iod of the Methodist Protestant church and this will depend now on how the injury mends. Maurice Foreman, secretary of the Barry county Agricultural society, announces that over $7,500 in prem­ iums are offered by the Fair manage­ ment for the 5.500 premiums at the 79th annual Barry county Fair which will be held September 8-12. The policy of last year of limiting entries to Barry county people will again be followed. A slight change has been made this year in the Domestic Arts division of the Home Economics department AH articles exhibited in this division must have been made within the past year. This step was taken to eliminate the exhibiting of the same articles from year to year and to encourage new ex­ hibitors. There win however be one exception to this rule in class 12 In 16 classes which are listed on page 90 of the premium book. Children's Day will be held on Fri­ day, September 11, and on this day ail school children in the county will be admitted free and will be given ad­ mission to the rides on the midway for one-half price. All schools in the county win be closed for the day to give the children an opportunity to at­ tend the Fair. Due to the limited amount of barn space, Mr. Foreman urges that per­ sons planning to exhibit livestock make their entries early to be sure of a stall. The advance sale of tickets at re­ duced prices will soon be announced. The tickets will again be available at various stores about the county. Mr*.

Saturday's Telegram reporting an interview with an Adrian man who had just re­ turned from seven weeks in a Rus­ sian factory suggested a re-reading of an article in the July issue at Foreign Affairs, an American review published by the Council on Foreign Relations. It was entitled 'The Dictators Dis­ cover Sport." To read it again was suggested tn part by our interview­ er's report that Russian workers spend their “rest" days in athletic contests arranged by the government, Ln part by the fact that the Olympic Games are now in progress in Ber­ lin, and in part by the fact that there Is such a curious difference in the conception of sports and sportsman­ ship in America and in the countries under dictatorships. Here we organize and support such organizations as the Boy Scouts, the Camp Fire Girls, the Y. M C. A., and others of their kind. We provide phy­ sical education in primary schools and colleges. We spend millions for public parks and playgrounds and spend miUidns more to watch the performances of those of outstanding ability in athletic endeavor, whether they be the professionals of organized baseball or the youthful amateurs of the college gridiron. But here no one must play; yet anyone may play. Race, religion, political belief, cut no figure. Moat important of all, the whole underlying theory of American sports is to promote sportsmanship— to be fair, to abide by the rules, to direct the popular attitude to applaud the victory of the better man or the better tea*, to be a giacious winner and a good loser. On the other side of the Atlantic three great nations ignore that Ideal­ istic theory and go to the other ex­ treme. Stalin in Russia was the first to turn sports into ah agency for the government control and influence of the young. Mussolini copied the Sta­ lin plan with some changes and reser­ vations, and when Hitler acquired power in Germany in 1933 he borrow­ ed the best from his Russian and Italian brothers and went on to go them one better. It is inevitable that dictators shall turn to youth. The ideas of middle aged and older persons are frequently too deeply rooted to be changed. Sta­ lin recognized that in permitting the older Russians to visit their churches but in forbidding them to speak of religion *o the young. He took the young, beginning at six years and whether they play marbles or foot­ ball thejr every act is regimented and exploited. The details governing the idea of games in Russia. Germany and Italy differ but fundamentally they serve these three identical purposes: 1. They keep the young people busy, physically tired and in no mood to give serious thought to internal political conditions and unemploy­ ment. 2. They offer an effective agency for the spread of dictatorial propa­ ganda to the effect that the dicta­ tor's policies produce superior men and women whether viewed from ra­ cial, cultural, moral or intellectual angles. 3. They provide an unconscious mass production of cannon fodder in which the pleasure and individuality of sports as we know them are com­ pletely subjected to the eventual mili­ tary requirements of the country. While Stalin was the first to dis­ cover sports, it must be admitted that he. alone of the three present day dic­ tators. acutally«bcnefltled his people by their exploitation. He had no in­ terest in sports as such, of course; he was looking to an organized army. Organized armies are made up of the -asses, and the masses, to make an effective army, must be physically fit. Just the same Stalin brought the idea of play to a great body of nationals to whom the word hitherto had been unknown. Not ho in the case of Germany and France where the guilds and federa­ tions of old bad added to their strength by the appeal of competitive athletics. Germany and Italy had en­ joyed voluntary and individual play tor a long time. Mureolini and Hit­ ler only took Stalin's idea and nation­ alized the business of playing.

Every time an Ital­ ian defeated a Frenchman, an Eng­ lishman or an American, it was hail­ ed in Italy as a demonstration of Fascism over Democracy. Hitler went farther. He adopted Stalin’s plan of using sports for milltarizatlon and propaganda and added a concoction of his own: the ostraci- ( zation from organized athletics of any : person who was opposed or even luke- ; warm toward his ideas.

But you can’t play unless you belong to the Nazi party and un­ less you are an Aryan and able to prove it. This debasement of sports, as we think of the word, for the triple goal of militarization, propaganda and power, is so foreign to our natural and national ideas that it is almost beyond understanding.

There wilt doubtless be at least three proposed amendments to the state constitution placed before the votera at the Novembr election, all of them dealing with tsodation. The most sweeping one would make It im­ possible to levy any property tax whatsoever for any support of school, city, village, township, county or state except for debt service contracted be­ fore the 15-mili amendment was adopted. The general Idea seems to be that the various municipalities can run without any money if they have to do so. Incidentally it requires that no change be made in other types-of taxation so tha tthe auto tax will be definitely pegged at its present figure, providing the proposition carried. The proposal has aroused a great deal of attention around the state. M. B. McPherson, chairman of the state tax commission, has pointed out that the proposed amendment .would almost ruin the home rale provisions of the state constitution. The prim­ ary school fund is largely made up of taxes paid by the common carriers. They pay ...the average property tax rate in the state. Of course this amendment would reduce their taxet, to the average debt srvice tax rate In the state and this by the very nature of things must be eventually wiped out. However all the expense of rolls and collections would be continued for a number of years because of the debt service situation. The amendment proposed would further make an income tax constitu­ tional, something which Las been un­ successfully attempted for many years in Michigan. The entire mat­ ter of raising and allocating moneys under the scheme would be up to the legislature every two years and a grand scramble would result ’ Another amendment proposed would exempt all food stuffs from th Control commission, succeeding Fred sales tax levy and still another would I L.

VanWagoner, state highway commissioner, make some arrange­ ment to give the counties more money to be used in the upkeep of the roads taken over from the townships under the provisions of the McNitt Act. Many of these have gone to pieces because of inadequate funds for their maintenance. great value in aiding clubs and schools to study the work of famous painters. But the largest number of books, etc., are sent directly to individuals who wish access to material not found at home. . What this means in the way of cul­ ture and knowledge to the citizens of Michigan would be hard to determine, but it is certain that no state agency would be more deeply missed than would the state library should it ap­ propriation be cut off.

NEW FERRY BOAT FOR STRAITS OF MACKINAC Murray D. Van Wagoner, state highway commissioner, announced this week his expectation of a new ferry steamer at tbe Straits of Mack­ inac by June 1, 1937. Public bids will be taken on a boat xs soon as the ma­ rine architect has completed the de­ sign. The new boat will have a capac­ ity of about 225 motor vehicles, com­ pared with an average of only 80 ve­ hicles for the three state-owned boats now in operation at the Straits. The new’ steamer probably will be equip­ ped with Ice-crushing facilities to permlt year-round service. The cost of the new boat probably will exceed •half a million dollars, and wil carry 225 automobies. and will increase transportation efficiency at the Straits by 80 per cent Succeeds Haber. L.

People are prone to think of the State Library as a collection of books and papers of use only to those who go there to do research work. As a matter of fact the reverse is the case. Every book, except a few rare ones I whose value prevents their being loan• ed, is at the call of any person who is I responsible. The entire resources of I the library are always at the disposal of the public. | Ov<*r 200,000 books, papers and clip­ pings are sent out each year. They ' go to every county of the state. The 1 traveling libraries which are sent out 1 to schools and other organizations, j take a variety of books to communl| ties which would not otherwise have them.

In times of emergency, a telephone enables you to summon doctor, firemen, police or other aid instantly. It helps the housewife by running errands in disagree­ able weather. Itbringsfriends within easy reach, and en­ ables them to include you in their good times. Drastic reductions also have been m ade in the charges for installing an extension telephone.

Army Maneuver* To Camp Custer Area Some Corus! fit-s, Even In Peace Time. Many Regular And Guards In Action. Camp Custer was to be attacked Wednesday in the course of the army maneuvers which have drawn many "war" correspondents and commenta­ tors into the area of the U. S. army maneuvers, which may decide the type of warfare to be used in case of war developing in our own country or through attack from the outside. Ten thousand troops from the west­ ern reservation of the “war area" Michigan and Wisconsin, were to at­ tempt to capture the reservation from the Illinois National Guard, then en­ camped in the eastern section. About 25,000 troops and guardsmen were in the camp altogether. The maneuvers have not been with­ out' casualties. Just Tuesday a pur­ suit ship burst into flames and crash­ ed near Otsego, killing two who re­ mained by the ship in an effort to land it and attempted to use para­ chutes too late. Another major disaster was saved at Camp Custer when a quick think­ ing private drove away a blazing ar­ my station wagon which was stand­ ing near two large tank trucks con­ taining 2300 gallons of gasoline. The car itself was destroyed. Twenty-six troop trains were figur­ ed on to carry the soldiers home from Camp Custer, with 25 hours allowed for clearing the field. Prospects Of Fine Showings Of Stock Entries Indicate Large Exhibit At Barry County Fair Again This Year. Early entries indicate that there will be a fine showing of livestock at the Barry county Fair again this year. Cattle entries are coming into County Agent Foster’s office at a rate that would indicate an extra tent will be needed to house the exhibit. County Agent Foster has notified purebred cattle breeders of the county that en­ tries had to be in the Fair office this week to insure exhibit space at the Fair. Before cattle can be brought onto the Fair grounds they must have had a negative reaction test to the abor­ tion test within 90 days previous to the Fair. The Fair association will make this test without cost to cattle exhibitors if Fair entries arc made his week. The Fair association needs some time to arrange with veterinar­ ians to administer the test. Hogs must be vaccinated against hog cholera before the. can be brought onto the Fair grounds; this is a State Livestock Health regula­ tion. This will also be taken care of by the Fair association if hog entries are made now. It is thought that the hog exhibit will not be overly large. County breeders with fine herds of hogs are urged to enter them now. Entries in all divisions of the Fair will be accepted at this time. Early entries insure exhibit space in sheep, poultry, crops, etc. Early entries help the Fair association plan their build­ ing arrangement for your exhibit. Frosts hl A M»ate. Well the katydids are telling us that the frosts will start about the middle of September. The frost is due in six weeks after they begin to chirp their prediction, which seldom fails. They began about two weeks ago. The drought of 1836 in Michigan bids fair to outdo that of 1934. In fact, it is already more severe in the three northern districts and some of the western counties of Lower Muhigan. Pasture conditions, which serve as a fair indicator of relative dryness, dropped from 63 per cent on July 1 to 35 per cent of normal for the state as a whole on August 1 as compared with 26 per cent on the corresponding date in 1934. The composite condition of Mich­ igan’s major field and fruit crops on the first of the current month was 62 per cent as compared with 70 per cent one month ago, 81 per cent one year ago, and 51 per cent two years ago. Wheat and rye being early sea­ son crops escaped much of the effect of dry weather. Threshing of these grains is well advanced and reports received to date indicate an average yield of wheat of 20.5 bushels per acre or the same as the 10-year average yield (1923-32). Much of It is of good quality and testing 60 pounds or better. The average yield of rye is estimated at U.S bushels per sere against the 10-year average of 12.6 bushels. Oats and barley were severely In­ jured by heat and drought, but yields in southern districts are averaging better than drought statements would seem to indicate. The quality is bet­ ter than it was last year. The condition of the Michigan corn crop is very spotted. Some fields made a good start in the spring and have withstood the drought remark­ ably well. In local areas rains have occurred in sufficient amount to sus­ tain the crop . Such fields will un­ doubtedly produce a fair yield if rains come soon but prospects arc declining as the drought is prolonged. The state’s field bean crop condi­ tion declined 18 points to 54 per cent during July. Vines, especially on ear­ ly plantings, have withstood the drought very well but the set is not satisfactory on much of the acreage and prospects for a crop arc becom­ ing more dubious each day that pass­ es without rainfall. Middle-season plantings appear to have the best prospect. Some areas have shown improvement recently because of be­ ing favored by local .rains. The Au­ gust 1 estimate is placed at 2,134,000 bags. Potatoes, likewise, showed a mark­ ed decline in condition during the month of July. The week of extreme heat undoubtedly caused serious dam­ age that favorable future weather can only partially overcome. However, rains in some sections have already improved prospects and if good rains were forthcoming throughout the state soon, it is believed a fair yield could still be obtained from much of the late-planted acreage. The early crop was light in yield as the tubers were small. Sufficient rain fell over portions of the state’s sugar beet area last week to cause some improvement. Growth has been slow on account of the drought and stands are not good in many fields. The present condition indicates a yield of about 7 tons per acre. First cuttings of hay were general­ ly good in quantity and quality in all sections, but second cuttings are light and limited almost entirely to alfalfa. A fair supply of all fall and winter fruits is Indicated. While the volume expected is less than normal, a for­ tunate circumstance in extremely dry seasons, the quality should be better than usual.

Reports from London1 that both a preventative! and an effective cure! for bay fever has been found will be: rated almost too good to be true by’ the millions of sufferers from this1 summer affliction in this country. The report is that a London hospi­■ tal has made an extensive five-year' tial of the remedy perfected, and that■ it has been found to be successful ta1 99 per cent of the cases treated. The treatment as described invoves the application of electricity of’ a coat of ionized zinc to the inside of' the nostrils. Three or four applica­ tions are said to rid victims of the' disease for a year, and single annual treatments for another year or two make the cure permanent. The victims of hay fever in thia country will devoutly hope that the news from London is true, for this widespread summer ailment is one of the most dreaded afflictions visited upon us. The source of the reported cure is reputable, and this makes the hope among the sufferers so much stronger. Hay Fever Remedy. New Ware Major General Charles E. Short. Kilbourne, commander of the Second Army in its maneuvers in Southwestern Michigan, predicts that future was will be short and decisive, stating that each com­ batant would attempt to strike the first blew, regardless of the cost "No military man ever again will countenance a war of stabilization if he can prevent it," Genera! Kilbourne said. "Commanders. witfh new and terrible weapons, will take greater chances than ever before to block en­ emy mobilization. Disruption of communicatic. . through bombing of railroads, bridges, ammunition plants and concentration plants will be at­ tempted. "The losses will be so great that fu­ ture ware cannot last long.” He was skeptical of the dangers of gas attacks, directed at civilians. "The World war taught us the value of allies, and of keeping neutral those who could not be made allies" he explained. "The nation that would gas important enemy cities, with their foreign residents, would play the role sands of fires all over the nation whose cumulative total destruction greatly exceeds the holocaust describ­ ed. Our average yearly loss for the entire country La 52,000,000 acres of woodland. Here is a problem that almost ev­ ery citizen can help solve. Most of us at one time or another visit woods— and many of us, through either ignor­ ance or carelessness, do things that are liable to cause fire. Careless dis­ posal of cigarette butts and matches and improperly built camp fires are two prolific causes of forest Holo­ causts. Most man-made fires begin from something of this sort — and a modicum of care would prevent them. Man is burning his forests faster than nature can replace them. Do your part to protect our irreplaceable and invaluable timber resources. Good Bye A quick method of resur­ Detours? facing roads without maktag motorists dodge around a detour is being tried out on 125 miles of Ohio highways. State highway department engin­ eers developed a new road surfacing machine, based on the mass produc­ tion principle, to take advantage of a quick-setting asphalt. A huge tractorpropelled machine travels down one aide of the road, .sweeps the old surface clean, covers it with crushed rock of uniform depth, sprays the rock with asphalt and tops it with sand. The other half of the road remains open to traffic, and motorists some­ times drive over the half bearing the new surface, even before rollers worf the pavement down, aa the danger of spattering has been minimised. The operation cuts the resurfacing time to less than one-third the former time, and on a 20-foot road the cost per mile is reduced from about *5,500 to *3,300. Mr. Landon Vs. Chairman Hamilton The Klan. of the Republican national committee has done well to re-emphasize the fact that Governor Landon joined with William Allen White ta fighting the ku kux klan ta Kansas. Mr. Landon's achievements as governor has receiv­ ed so much more attention than his earlier career that many easterners bad overlooked this phase of Mr. Lan­ don’s record. To any one who knows Mr. Landon it is unthinkable that he would have followed any other course. He is by nature an open-minded liberal. All his instincts revolt against intoler­ ance and prejudice. His common sense told him that the klan move­ ment was built on hatred and unfair­ ness. It appealed only to the nar­ rowest and most bigoted minds. When, therefore, bis old friend, "Bill” White, famous for his tolerance of everything except intolrance, was out­ raged by the spectacle of the klan trying to run its own candidate for governor a dozen years ago ta Kan­ sas, Mr. Landon actively supported Mr. White in his fight against the klansmen. What this means should be clear to any fair-minded person. A man who feels strongly enough against intoler­ ance and bigotry to take an active part in a fight against a movement ,bused on bigotry is surely not a man to succumb ta after life to prejudices of the kind that he then fought The truth of the matter is that Mr. Lan­ don's record is clear and his sincer­ ity apparent He disapproves race and religious warfare just as strongly as he opposes class warfare.

U. 8. authority on traffic control, adds new light to causes for traffic acci­ dents. In bis survey he list accidents: 17 per cent head-on collisions due to friction in the middle of the road of two opposing traffic streams; 19 per cent to cross-road collisions; 20 per cent due to bad road shoulders, ab­ rupt curves, faulty banking and such objects as trees, parked vehicles or pedestrians; 44 per cent to the con­ flict of faster and slower cars moving in the same direction resulting In rear-end collisions, etc. Experts agree that our highway construction must become an'automatic means to correct the driver's mistakes, and that the present highway construction is not adequately improved to correspond with automobile improvement. Roads can be built to correct and prevent the above type of accidents; but the structure is elaborate and the ex­ pense tremendous, so that it will take years to create the necessary super­ highways which are vitally needed. In the meantime, we must look to regulation for the drivers, the major­ ity of whom need instruction. Indi­ ana requires 20 hours a semester of driving instruction in high schools.

Of course the district where the mock fighting was to be must be in sanitary condition so far as possi­ ble, water must be found which was safe and many other details had to be taken care of. But the climax was reached when the war department wished to know whether or not there was any danger of serious injury from the bite of the small “saugers” or rattle snakes which infest the re­ gion in southwestern Michigan where the maneuvers were to be held. The state health department promptly produced statistics to show that deaths or other serious results from this cause were practically unknown. ’ Michigan Wears Alfalfa Crown Program At M. S. C. Celebrates The Strides Made In Growing King Of Forage Crops. In celebration of Michigan’s nation­ al leadership in the use of alfalfa for high quality feed and pasture, the Farmers' Day program held recently on the campus of Michigan State col­ lege brought back ’to thousands of farmers memories of the methods used to introduce the crop in projects be­ gun more than 15 years ago. The 1920 census credited the state with having 74,000 acres planted to alfalfa. O. E. Reed, chief of the fed­ eral bureau of dairy industry, Wash­ ington D. C., then was head of the dairy department at the college and J. F. Cox was head of the farm crops department In November, 1921, the first of a series of “barn” meetings was held in Altogan county. Dairy­ men were told how to test soils, how to prepare land and sow the seed and how to use the alfalfa crop. The state then had about 750,000 head of dairy cattle and dairymen found the crop offered many advan­ tages. The seedings increased yearly until it, now is estimated at 1,040,000 acres. The dairy cow population now is about 934,000 animals. Qae of the newest developments in the use of alfalfa is in silage. Test containers were opened up during the Farmers' Day program for inspection by many of the 5,500 visitors. C. F. Huffman, professor in dairy husban­ dry, explained why the alfalfa silage process was developed. In normal seasons r.lfaifa cannot always be cur­ ed as high quality hay. To preserve the feed. Huffman recommended the method of ensiling the cut crop. Sixty pounds of molasses to a ton of the wet or green feed Is mixed with the Republicans now hold three of the cut a**alfa to aid fermentation. four other positions to be balloted upon this fall.

PULTZ FOR STORY Have you seen those “fishin' shorts” of Dr. Pultz? They're just great. O? course it leaves considerable terri­ tory open to mosquitoes. He didn't just have an “idea" about the shorts being the thing, but when you drop off a dock, into muck near waist deep, owing to receding waters, why your long pants aren't very presentable. We didn’t hear whether the frog he aimed io get escaped or not, but it’s said if Adolph Dause hadn’t grabbed something substantial, he would have been in the same pickle — or mud. “Doc” performed finally a “major op­ eration" on those muck-pants, and emerged in shorts. It was a blood­ less operation with no anesthetic, but MBS. G. W. GRIBBIN’S BIRTHDAY CELEBRATED Wednesday was the birthday anni­ versary of Mrs. G. W.

French and two of their children, Joalda and Anna, from Bay City. Miss Georgia Gribbin and Mr. and Mrs. F. K. Bullis of Nashvile. •‘Recent experimental work by Dre. Charles Armstrong and Walter T. Harrison of the National Institute of Health, Washington. D. C., in pre­ venting poliomyelitis in monkeys by the use of a nasal spray has excited so much interest and speculation that the U. S. Public Health Service deems it desirable to issue the following statement: "The evidence regarding this meth­ od is as yet based entirely on animal experimentation and the proposed spray is not at present to be regard­ ed as of proved value in the preven­ tion of poliomyelitis in man. Perhaps it would be advisable to await the resuits of further trials before giving the method general application. If it is desired to use the solution it should be sprayed into the nostrils three or four times on alternate days, and thereafter weekly during the presence of poliomyelitis. The spray tip should be pointed upward and backward at an angle of about 45 degrees, and the spraying should be thorough enough to reach the pharynx as well, when a bitter taste will be noted. The early applications at least should be admin­ istered by a physician. The experi­ mental work on animals is still being pursued. Therefore, the tentative pro­ cedure subject to such chasges a s may be dictated by future findings. The most effective solution so far de­ veloped during experimentation on monkeys is made up of picric acid and solium aluminum sulfate dissolved m physiologic salt solution. “While predictions cannot be made concerning epidemics. It is the opin­ ion of the public health service that there are no indications that poliomy­ elitis will be unduly preva’ent this summer.” , MRS.

VanWagoner, state highway commissioner, completed ne­ gotiations this week for the design of a modem, streamlined ferry boat to be placed in operation at tbe Straits of Mackinac for year-round service W. M. Rice, president of Henry J. Glelot, Inc. of New York, marine ar­ chitects, was directed to proceed at once with the design of the new ves­ sel which will double the capacity of ferry facilities at tbe Straits. Rice expects to complete his design about September 1 and blds on actuiu con­ struction will be taken shortly there­ after. The boat will require about eight months to build. Commissioner VanWagoner plans to have it in oper­ ation by June 1. 1937. Design specifications include: Die­ sel-powered plant with cruising speed of about 18 miles an hour; 150 motor vehicle capacity; ice-crushing facili­ ties; provision for handling 75 per cent of the motor vehicle load on the lower deck with the upper deck re­ served for peak traffic loads; 14 -foot clearance between decks, the same as on Michigan grade separation struc­ tures; twin screw design to permit greater flexibility in maneuvering: and pilot house control. Rice estimated the cost of the new boat at $600,000 to $800,000. Com­ missioner VanWagoner said an appli­ cation for WPA assistance in financ­ ing the construction will be pushed al­ though the state administrative board has authorized the use of state funds. Tt-wunuch as the new vessel will be an end-loading and unloading boat alterations will be required at both the Mackinaw Qty and St Ignace docks. ■ Card Of Thaaks.

J. Navue. To Barry Co. Voters: State Senator Frank R. Mosier has been forced to clarify a num­ ber of erroneous impressions. He had hoped that there would be no mud-slinging and malicious mis­ representation by befogging the issues of tliis campaign, which should be for the betterment of the 8th District and not fof individual gain. During the 1935 session of the legislature, a record of bills has been tabulated. To Whom It May Concern: Forty-one so called “Administrative Bills” were introduc­ ed in the Senate in the 1935 session of the legislature. Ev­ ery Nay vote on final passage on Third Reading in the Sen­ ate was a Democratic vote; not one Republican voted against any of the bills. 41 so called administrative bills were introduced. 5 of these so called bills remained in Senate committee. 36 of these bills were passed by *he Senate and sent to the House. 27 of these 36 bills died in the House. 8 of these bills passed both Houses and were enacted into law. 1 was vetoed by the Governor after passing both Houses. References and data is found in the Official State Journal. Respectfully submitted, Fred D. Chase, Secretary of the Senate. June 17, 1935. Honorable Frank R. Mosier, Fennville, Michigan, RFD No. 3, Dear Senator Mosier: I am taking this means of expressing to yoy the appre­ ciation of the officers and members of the Michigan State Farm Bureau for the valuable services you rendered to your rural constituents and to agriculture generally during the recent session of the legislature. The two principal measures on the Farm Bureau legisla­ tive program this year were rural school relief and the ex­ emption from sales tax of articles used by farmers in agri­ cultural production. You not only suported these two measures to the limit, but gave yourself unsparingly in the support of the sales tax, the income tax and all other measures of rural interest. At the same time, you were the militant leader of opposi­ tion to land speculators’ schemes to dump their tax respon­ sibilities onto the farmer. In fact, Mr. Newton, our Legis­ lative Counsel, reports that he found you willing to take up the cause of the farmer cn everj* possible occasion. Your example was worth many times your own vote on many occasions. Mr. Newton ados. I am sure that record will be favorably remembered by the Farm Bureau and by farmers everywhere. Sincerely yours C.

On Jan. 5. 1876, he was married to Eucebia Chapin of Assyria, who pre­ ceded him in death March 21, 1925. To this union six children were bom. three of whom have passed on. He came to Maple Grove at the age of 12. then moved to Hillsdale after he was married fbr a few years, then spent the remainder of bis life in Mapie Grove and Assyria townships. He leaves to mourn their loss three children. Carl Archer of near Char­ lotte. Mrs. Genevieve Lawrence of Battle Creek and Mrs. Rilla Whit­ more of near Nashville; also one sis­ ter. Mrs. Nellie Shoup of near Battle Creek; eleven grandchildren, five great-grandchildren, and several niec­ es and nephews.

We were at the school building, or school plant using modern terms, on Tuesday, in an effort to inveigle SupL Wallace, who has returned from Ann Arbor and his summer study at the University of Michigan, to bridge the gap of accomplished work since he started bis summer course, to the present time, but he claimed to be too busy to write a story about these things of jwfaich he has first hand knowledge. Instead he took the inquiring re­ porter over, through and under, an in­ complete structure which is growing daily in beauty and utility and which in conneectlng the new addition to the former school structure, just mussed up everything and almost gave the janitor, Mr. Sackett, who usually bus­ ies himself all summer, getting ev­ erything ready for the opening of school, the "jitters" with the prospect of no place to begin his "clean-up" work. However, early this week Mr. Sack­ ett with several to assist began work in the older structure, in what is to be the agricultural room and the ad­ joining clok room. Nothing else seem­ ed ready for them at the moment, un­ less it was the present office of SupL Wallace, but probably day by day something will be accomplished. It’s just a.

The othr injury is caused by the beetles boring into healthy twigs and bark in search of a feeding or breeding place, then laving to find less vigorous wood when the trees counter attack with a flow of gum. The fruit tree bark beetle also proves a pest in related ornamentals such as flowering crab and quince. The beetle is about one-twentieth of an inch long. It is a dark brownish black in color and is believed tc be of European origin. When the bark of trees has been punctured, the beetle and larvae are revealed by paring down th bark carefully with a sharp knife. Commercial orchard operators are warned by Professor Hutson to clean up abandoned orchard blocks to protect adjacent healthy producing orchards.

Something Doing Every Minute of Every Day & Nite! �THE NASHVILLE NEWS, Lansing Comment. By T. E. Johnson. The Financial Questions. When State Treasurer Theodore Fry announced last week that the state spent more money in the fiscal year ending June 30, 1936, than it took in by over $400,000, the governor became angry for the first time in his official career. He has been telling follp that the state was running well within its Income. He immediately called everybody concerned into his office and demanded a showdown. Either he was right, in which case the treasurer was wrong, or else he was wrong and wanted to tell the fact to the public. He was most emphatic in his demands that the matter be straightened out at once so that the people could know the truth. The situation is peculiar In that there are three agencies involved, the accounting department, the auditor general and the state treasurer. It is much as though a private cor­ poration doing a businecss of close to $200,000,000 had a bookkeeping de­ partment and a treasurer and then had to reconcile their fig «res with their bank’balance. In this case the state treasurer represents the bank, the accounting department is the bookkeeper and the auditor general is the treasurer. On Jun 30, 1935, the auditor gener­ al bad sent out about $8,000 000 of warrants (checks) which hal not been paid. Both the accounting de­ partment and the auditor general fig­ ured all this as a part of that year s business. But the warrants came in after July 1 and so the treasurer placed them in the next year's busi­ ness. It would not have mattered if there had been the sam amount out­ standing on June 30. 1936. But that time there was less than $3,000 000 of outstanding warrants so of course it made it appear that there had been $5,000,000 more of disbursements in the last fiscal year than was actually the case. In other words checks writ­ ten on Jhe 30th represent expenditures of that date. Of course there should be some clear and honest way in which these figures could be set out so that the man on the street couH know at a glance all about it. The governor is determined that this shall be the case. uBt the matter is further complicated by the exist­ ence of a number of trust funds which are in the treasurer's hands but which the state does not control in any way whatever . These are collect­ ed and paid out without the matter appearing on any other books but Of those of the state treasurer, course these could easily be ignored in figuring the expenditure of the state because as a matter of fact they are not a part of state's business. tA any rate it is a certainty that he governor wil see to it that a sys­ tem Is worked out to simplify all these matters and make them clear to any person who is interested. to about IJ5.000. Tb. other half la met by a Fair board itself. . The state department of agriculture will make an exhibit at a number of these Fairs showing their bonded la­ bels for farm products and in several cases a roadside stand exhibit. In ad­ dition there will be exhibitions of plant disease control. There are ex­ pected to do much in educating the urban population In the problems in­ volved. At the state Fair all the ac­ tivities of the department of agricul­ ture will be shown. Hearing Postponed. The hearing in the Ingham county circuit court on the matter of the Grand Rapids Gas Light company and its defiance of the Michigan Public Utilities commission was postponed until August 31. This action was taken by the attorney general at the request of the company. The members of the commission stated that they had hoped for an im­ mediate hearing. In this connection one of the mem­ bers stated that it was important to determine the commissions' power to prevent waste. He said that the lar­ ger gasser in Belvidere which had blown its valve had wasted in the thirty hours required to cap it, enough gas to supply all the territory using such gas for a period of thirty days. He said that prompt action alone would prevent a recurrence of‘ such situations. The Isle Royale Fire. A member of the department of ag­ riculture staff stated last week that the disastrous fire in the Big Super­ ior Island was caused by the action of a Wisconsin lumbering concern in going in and lumbering a narrow strip of timber for a long distance across the island and along one shore. The company had left the slashings in rude piles all along the sceen of its operaons and this was ready tinder for anything starting a blaze. In this case it is believed.to have been start­ ed by lightning. The company's action is believed to have been caused by a desire to force the governments, state and federal, to hasten the purchase of the property heldjhere under option. They thought that the beginning of lumbering would enable them to get their money in a hurry. This selfishness has caused the loss of a fine stand of timber and has made a waste of many thousands of acres of beautiful scenery. Civil Sen ice Plan. The state is greatly interested in the efforts of Governor Frank D. Fitz­ gerald to do away with the spoils sys­ tem In the state. It is absolutely ne­ cessary that this be done, in his opin­ ion. in order to secure good and ef­ ficient state government. The report of the commission and the proposed bill have aroused more favorable comment about the state than any other project In recent years. Simplified, the proposal is that a civil service commission be appointed with full power to hold examinations for admission to the sta^e pay roll. Of course background and training would be considered as well as experience in that particular type of work. Natually the person holding the position would have a distinct advantage. But after appointment all promotion would be based on future examinations as well as the employment record. Politics would not be considered at all and all those under civil service would be barred from taking any part whatever in politics except to vote. In this way public life could be made a career, a modest one of course, but nevertheless It would be sn assured livelihood as long as the individual paid attention to his work and per­ formed his duties properly. Doubtless there will be changes made in the proposed measure as peo­ ple .have time to study it. However it is a real step in the right direction and if placed upon the statute books in Michigan will be a triumph for good government. Over Eighty Fairs. This fall there will be held a large number of state, county and ether lo­ cal Fairs. They will range in sire from the tiny local affairs to the an­ nual state Fair in Detroit. Many of these Fairs are old. For example the famous Taymouth Fair in southern Saginaw cofinty will cele­ brate its seventieth anniversary this year. The state pays half of the premium money offered for agricultural and in­ dustrial exhibits. This will amount To Hold Examin; ns. State Banking Commiss er How­ ard C. Lawrence held an ex. “nation on Tuesday of this week to de. mine the appointment of a few assistant THURSDAY, AUG. 11. 1956 bank examiners. Of course their ex­ perience and background will be con­ sidered but these ratings will deter­ mine the appointments Xor some monihs to come. This is a practical application of the principles of civil service to one of the most important departments of the state government. Mr. Lawrence believes that this is the best way to make his selections and has the cour­ age of his convictions. After Eating Places. The commissioner of agriculture, Jarpes F. Thomson, is also pure food commissioner. As such he is going after the little rura 1 eating houses which have made so much trouble in recent months. Many of them are very insanitary. In addition to political considerations, the coming of the beer garden has aggravated the problem greatly. Many of these places exist only to sell beer and they show that fact in the way in which they are run. Commissioner Thomson is asking Judge McDonald, chairman of the liquor commission, and Dr. C. C. Sie­ mens, health commissioner, to cooper­ ate with him in the drive. Auction Sale! of Household Goods Sat’day, Aug. 29 Rural Electrification Plans. Judge Emerson Boyles, who repre­ sents the Utilities commission of the rural electrification commission, an­ nounced last week that very definite progress had been made in securing a program for all of Michigan within reach of some system. The Consum­ ers Powers company and the Detroit Edison cover the more populous part of the state and they have worked out very acceptable plans which are real­ ly getting somewhere in the solution of the problem. A large number of rural extensions have been made or planned. Of course this work is being done at a great loss with hopes of future rev­ enue to make it back. The Detroit Edison has appropriated 'about $2,­ 500.000 for such work in the "Thumb" alone. The Michigan Public Service com­ pany and the Indiana and Michigan Electric company are both owned by the Associated Gas and Electric and these two organizations have not as yet done anything satisfactory. How­ ever the commission Ls considering issuing an order there in the near fu­ ture. When this is done the lower peninsula will be well under way. Upper Michigan is served by a number of companiees. The largest is the Wisconsin Michigan This com­ pany is handicapped because it must have a plan which will work in both states. ■ However progress is being made there and it is expeected that shortly a plan acceptable to all will have been evolved.

MOSIER The dynamic leadership of Sen­ ator Mosier during the last legisla­ tive session was due partially to the many important committees upon which he served. A large part of the legislative work is ac­ complished in the committees. Senator Mosier was a member of the following important commit­ tees: 1. Horticulture—Chairman. 2. Apportionment. 3. Counties and Townships. 4. Drainage. 5. Finance and appropriations — Vice chairman. This committee is considered especially important by the prom­ inent leaders in the legislature. The budget for each insti­ tution of the state and the state departments and other ma­ jor expenditures in the state received the sanction of this committee. Governor Fitzgerald rarely changed these appropriations during the last legislature. 7. Labor. 8. Michigan State College. Senator Mosier was also chosen by the Fitzgerald Admin­ istration to act upon the STATE AUGMENTED ADMIN­ ISTRATION BOARD. This board is comprised of the Governor, heads of the State Departments, two Senators and two Representatives. All vital issues facing the state are always acted upon by this board when the legislature is not in session. Senator Mosier’s Record On Tax Cancellation and School Aid. Senator Frank R. Mosier of Fennville, eighth senatorial district, which comprises Allegan, VanBuren and Barn­ counties, was a militant leader in readjusting the tax sys­ tem of Michigan. It was through Senator Mosier’s efforts that the tax cancellation bill was defeated. This bill pro­ posed to cancel all delinquent taxes prior to 1932. The Mosier-Baldwin Bill adjusted this tax problem so that mil­ lions of dollars were received by the state as taxes and once more placed the tax problem on sound legislative basis. Senator Mosier also gained prominence throughout the state as a member of the Committee of Five. After a threeday dead lock in caucusing among the Republican Senators, the Committee er Five was appointed for devising a com­ promise on the Thatcher-Saur Bill. The Senator was asked by the late Dr. Maurice Keyworth to compromise this bill. The compromise on the Thatcher-Saur State Aid for Schools Bill provided $22,400,000 for 1936 and $22,600,000 for 1937. This bill has reduced the tax burden upon the local units approximately one-third in cities, urban and ru­ ral areas. —Pol.

Barry county 4-H club livestock judging team tied with the Eaton county team for first place at the state judging contest held at Mich­ igan State college Aug. 24th and 25th. Mr. Foster, county agricultural agent, received a report on the contest stat­ ing that the team consisting of Albert Bell of Nashville, Aden Campbell of Middleville and Kenneth Dunn of Hastings, made a total store of 1527 out of a possible 1800. This score tied for first place in the state with an Eaton county team. These three boys and a leader are awarded a trip to the State Fair at Detroit At the State Fair the boys will judge horses, beef cattle, sheep and hogs in at attempt to win a trip to the International Livestock Show in Chicago where they will be in na­ tional competition. Mr. Foster states this is the best any Barry county 4-H Livestock Judging team has ever done and the boys are to be complimented on their standing. The Dairy Judging teams, consist­ ing of younger boys, placed 16th out of 27 teams competing from the en­ tire state. This placing is not high enough to be awarded the State Fair trip but the boys did have valuable experience in the state contest This team was made up of Paul Palmer, Ral£h Palmer and Arthur Smith, all of Middleville. County Agent Foster is cooperat­ ing with W. C. Cribbs, Ionia county agricutural agent, in placing a car Ipad of western horses for public auc­ tion sale at Ionia. The horses are being supplied by County Agent Putman of Bismark, N. D.. and will be sold at Ionia on Monday, Sept 7, at 1.00 p. m.. The car load consists of three marej with colt by side, one two year old colt and the balance of the load will be work horses of fair to good grade. This sale is a follow-up of the sale held in Ionia three weeks ago and the horses consigned are horses from North Dakota farms that have to be disposed of because of the drought conditions in that state. For the most part they are everyday farm horses of about 1500 lbs. with and without brand. ‘ -----County Agent Harold J. Foster an­ nounces the Fly Free date for seeding wheat in Barry county as Sept 18 to 2S. The damage from Hessian fly was decidedly severe this past year in fields that were seeded in early Sep­ tember last year and in many cases did not harvest over three or four bushels to the acre this j ear. It seems that, if such a simple thing as time for seeding wheat can control this in­ sect, every farmer should do it Some years when the insect isn't bad no great loss is noticed from early seed­ ing, but no one is able to determine just what years will be bad fly years. Due to the loss of seedings the in­ dications are that there will be a large acreage of wheat plantings in Barry county and Southern Michigan this year. Farmers will need to cut every comer to make the crop profit­ able. County agent’s office has in­ formation on wheat fertilizers, treat­ ing of wheat for smut and general in­ formation on the growing of wheat This information is free to those de­ siring the help. Mr. and Mrs. Von W. Furniss and daughters, Margaret and Pauline, ar­ rived home Saturday at midnight from a nearly 8000 mile motor trip to the Pacific Coast which took them through 13 states, and over two dif­ ferent routes except from Spokane to Butte, with the extremes in produc­ tivity, the drouth area, the more med­ ium dry at this end, and Washington and Oregon at the other extreme, due to irrigation, fogs and dews, in other words the necessary moisture. They becam^ very fond of the Rocky ’Mountains and the Pacific Ocean, arid enjoyed their visits and sight-seeing greatly, and stood the two long trips nicely. Pauline how­ ever chose life nn the ranch of friends of her aunt’s for the 5-day period during which the rest went down into California to see the big timber, and saw other sights. Their trip out was by way of Nor­ thern Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Montana. Idaho, into Washington, and then into Oregon. There was a week's visit with relatives in the drouth area, enroute west. Words, they say. cannot describe the conditions in those states, where drouth and the graashoppers have left only ruin, with some of the peo­ ple putting a few possessions into their cars and going on into Oregon and Washington where things are better. Mrs. Furniss' sisters, the Misses Gall and Alta Johnson, who teach at Spokane. Wash., were attending sum­ mer school at Portland, Oregon, which the Nashville group made their headquarters for visiting and side trips. They visited the Shoshone Dam, an old one ;and the Coulee and the Bon­ neville dams, now under construction; Crater Lake, which had been the scene of a blizzard the previous day; spent two days in Yellowstone Park, and one day in the Black Hills; and saW much of Interest In returning they touched -Wyoming, South Da­ kota, the southern part of Minnesota and Wisconsin, into Illinois and Indi­ ana, and into the home state. Miss Margaret Furniss did most all the driving, and though a seasoned driver, from her experience in the De­ troit area, she added to that exper­ ience materially, with the varied con­ ditions she had to meet, Mr. Furniss driving on occasions from the front or "back seat” Mr. Furniss has bad some vacations in his long business career, but this was the first long vacation trip. They all enjoyed it immensely, as a whole, but their hearts were saddened by what they saw in the drouth section. Human Bat To Fly Through The Air With The Greatest Of Rate At The Barry County Fair.

A very fine party was held Aug. 21 by the D. S. Ladles when they were entertained by Mrs. Geo. Campbell at her home. There was an interesting devotional lesson in which all took part by reading from the text cards. Mrs. Mae Kohler delighted her hear­ ers with a very effective rendition of "Ossier Joe." She also gave an en­ core number, much enjoyed. The quilt, which whs to have been tied at this meeting, was mysteriously tied beforehand by four of the ladies and brought all finished, and was sold at the meeting to one of their own members. Another pleasant feature of this party was the gift of a pair of hand worked pillow nlipe to Rev. and Mrs. M. E. Hbyt from the class, Mrs. Parks making a very appropriate pre­ sentation speech, which was respond­ ed to by both Rev. and Mrs. Hoyt en­ tertainingly. The usual good potluck lunch followed. | CHURCH NOTES J Methodist Episcopal Church. Myron E.

One of the ship's launches of the U. 8. gunboat Tulsa, out trolling off Taboga Island Panama, harpooned a ■hark asleep near the surface. After a battle which lasted for most of the day, and being towed for miles, the shark was subdued. Retumisg to the ■hip with the catch, the boat crane was used to haul the fish from the water. It measured 27 feet, one inch, and it was estimated to weigh 5000 pounds. Tbe World Cruise Of 19W. An important event in the history of our navy was the cruise around the world in 1907-1909. On Dec. 16, 1907. sixteen first class battleships set Jut from Hampton Roads, Va_, under command of Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans, the same Evans who was wounded at the stockades of Fort Fisher, when he was a midshipman. Tbe fleet passed through the Straits of Magellan, and north to San Fran­ cisco, where Admiral Evans was re­ lieved, due to ill health, by Rear Ad­ miral Sperry. The fleet left the Paclfic Coast circled the Pacific, first Hawaii, then to New Zeeland. Aus­ tralia. Philippines, Japan. China, thru Die Suez Canal, separating in the Mediterranean, some of the ships reaching Messina in time to assist in the relief of the stricken city after the earthquake. After a cruise of 46,­ 000 miles, the fleet arrived in Hamp­ ton Roads on Washington's birthday. 1909.

Dahlhouser met with a motor accident, which luckily did not prove serious, in the early hours on Sunday morning, three miles from Dowagiac, as he was driving to Chicago, accom­ panied by his son Dickie, and his par­ ents. Mr. and Mrs. Philip Dahlhouser, to join Mrs. Charles Dahlhouser and their daughters at the home of Philip Dahlhouser's aister and husband. Mr. and Mrs. Copeland. He was driving on M-40 at about 60 miles an hour when, too late to avoid trouble, he saw a car standing ahead of him with no taillight, and a car coming from the other way with bright lights, while a third car was parked on the right side of the road, gasless and lightless, all avenues for escape closed. So he struck the Peerless coupe, a 1929 model, ahead of him, in which were a Chicago woman, a Lithuanian, whose home and husband's business address was 715 W. 120th street, and a man from her Michigan farm in the Dowagiac vicinity, but not injuring the couple, who had paused to talk to the people who wanted gas from their car. The Dahlhouser car was badly dam­ aged and had to be left at Dowagias, and his party were all cut and bruised. Mrs. Philip Dahlhouser who with her husband and son sat on the front seat, received the worst injuries. Her glasses were broken, her face cut on the forehead and cheek, besides her bruises, and her wedding ring cut into her finger badly, while Philip Dahl­ houser pitched out of the open car door, striking on his head on the pavement Charlie, and Dickfe who was on the back seat, got off more lightly. They were all taken to the hospital at Dowagiac, where they were given attention by Dr. Hickman, who proved to be a son of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Hickman of Nashville. The driver of the new Chevrolet, who came from the opposite direction and was driving slowly, stopped his car as soon as possible and came to the scene of the accident The motor of the Dahlhouser car was all right, but the frame was sprung, the radiator and grill, left fender and apron, bumpers and head lamps were ruined. The party managed to catch a. train into Chicago, arriving two hours lat­ er (7 a. m.) than they expected, to find the folks fearful that something had happened to them enroute. Mrs. Charles Dahlhouser and chil­ dren came back on the train to Battle Creek, where they were later joined by Mr. Dahlhouser, who had stopped off at Dowagiac and then done a neat 4 hours job of hitchhiking.

AH Ready A child's success in For School. school is in many ways dependent on his gen­ eral state of health. Surveys show that the backward child often is found to have one or more defects—usually remediable—which impede both bin mental and physical development A thorough Inventory of the health of a child who is beginning the school year is more important than the clothing, books and equipment neces­ sary for his admission. All defects should be checked, and corrected as far as possible before the child enters school so he will not be handicapped in his work. A child with bad eyes will not be able to see what Is going on, and if he tries, he may have a bad headache. A child with Impaired hearing will not understand the teacher's explanations and may become the schoolroom “dunce." A child with a bad nose cannot concentrate well. Chronically diseased tonsils and adenoids often make the child susceptible to more contagious diseases than the average. Bad teeth and the “gulping" of un­ chewed food will impair digestion and the growth of a child. Ill-fitting shoes may practically cripple the child. An annual physical examination, advocated by the Michigan State Med­ ical society, for children and adults alike, will uncover defects in the ear­ ly stages, permit their correction be­ fore serious consequences result, and thus keep the person fit for his work. The child of today is the man of tomorrow. Proper medical attention of these developing bodies now insure a sturdy race of men and women who can take over and efficiently perform the tasks of this world when their turn comes. "Thine Is The During these days of Kingdom." changing world con­ ditions and vaccjlating material situations—all of them difficult to cope with—one bears very frequently the exclamation. What is this world coming to! And many an erstwhile Christian has given reluc­ tant thought to the question. Has God withdrawn from governing His crea­ tion, or has He perhaps forgotten to care for His people? Mary Baker Eddy gives a most wonderfully reas­ suring reply to such questioning on pages 16 and 17 of the Christian Sci­ ence textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" where she records the spiritual sense of the Lord's Prjyer. The two petitions, ■Thy kingdom come." and "Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven," she Interprets: "Thy kingdom is come; Thou art ever-present," and, "Enable us to know,—as in heaven, so on earth,—God is omnipotent, sup­ reme.” These petitions, in this spir­ itual interpretation, have both an in­ dividual and a' universal appeal and application. Can anything be more comforting than to realize that God is ever pres­ ent, and that the kingdom of God is come, as Christ Jesus proved by his works •’•'hen he taught and healed and helped mankind centuries ago? Dur­ ing the intervening centuriee, God was not understood as the governing Prin­ ciple of the universe, nor was His presence or His power clear to hu­ manity. In the teachings of Christan Science these vitally effective spiritual truths challenge and bless alike the devout Christian Scientist and those unused to the Christian re­ ligion: hence the appropriateness of the petition. "Enable us to know”— that is, enable us to be aware of the fact, and to declare that God governs the universe and man, because He is our sole creator and maintainer. Christians will readily agree that God is supreme, but they all too fre­ quently fail to manifest a vital con­ viction that He Is able and willing to guide and guard, to lead and govern at all times. Yet this is a provable fact Whenever mankind places its affairs under the care of omniscient Principle, the omnipotent Ruler of the universe, these affairs improve until a right and proper adjustment is achieved. It is necessary, however, that this be done wholeheartedly. This means one must watch that no reliance is placed on any lesser power. Neither time nor human inventions that are planned ouLside of the law of God, have any power to adjust our affairs. God alone does this, when we rely on Him, for otherwise we make void our prayerful declaration, ‘Thine is the kingdom. ’ Just as one must leave the shade if one would enjoy the warmth of the sun. so must one consciously dwell in the presence of God. leave the gov­ ernment to Him, and then trustingly await right rsults, knowing that He alone is God and king, and governs rightly.

Dated, August 28th, IBM. 10-12 9-10c For the first time since 1630, the pr’ces of products which farmers Ln Michigan sell have been on a par with prices of commodities which far­ mers buy, reports R. V. Gunn. Ex­ tension Economist, Michigan State college. Ln diagnosing what has occurred and what effect trends may have on the crops fanners in this state now are harvesting, Gunn reports that on August 15, for instance, the average farm price index was 34 per cent higher than the pre-war level and that prices are more than double what they were in the fore part of 1933. "To put it another way, the cash Income to Michigan farmers for the first six months of 1936 is estimated to be approximately 16 per cent high­ er than for the first six months of 1935. If this proportionate increase over last year continues for the bal­ ance of this year, the total ca^h in­ come to Michigan farmers for 1936 will approximate two hundred million dollars. This Li almost equal to the income of two hundred and eight mil­ lion dollars in 1930. Compared with the low cash income year of one hun­ dred and eighteen million dollars in 1932, this represents a 70 per cent in­ crease. It is true that the cost of commodities which farmers buy has also risen during the past four years, but so far this increase has been only 26 per cent Drouth Increases Prices"For the fourth consecutive year, the total U. S. wheat crop is almost 25 per cent below normal. We will again be on an import basis which means that prices for the 1936 crop can be expected to remain high, com­ pared with the world market price. Michigan, with a good crop this year, stands .to gain because of this situa­ tion.” ’ The U. S. corn crop as indicated fy August 1 conditions is the smallest since i88L The Michigan corn crop according to go-, eminent ci op reports, will prob­ ably be not much morc than half as Michigan normally import* some corn fo- feed, the price sttua'i’n on <xra wifi b-- costly to livestock producers in 'he state. The oate end barley cr.ns are also much be’rw normal in Michigan. Prices for old crop bea”t» have soare-* to 1930 levels—clo-v? tc $5.00 per hund-ed pound bag. Th.? prospective yield, however, is but slightly more than half last year's big crop and on­ ly slightly less than average. If present prices hold for the new crop. Michigan bean growers, even with a less than averag crop, will still secure a good income. However, the total 1936 U. S. bean crop was estimated on August 1 to be only 14 per cent less than the 1928-32 five-year aver­ age. Therefore, the final outcome is somwhat problematical. potato Crop Valuable. "Although recent rains may im­ prove prospective yields materially a twenty million bushel potato crop for Michigan was indicated August 1,’’ Gunn reports. "Tnis is about 75 per cent of the average production for the previous five year period. On the other hand, tbe total late potato crop for the U. S. is now expected to be as small as the extremely short crops of 1925 and 1919. With such a small U. S. crop tn prospect, potato prices for tbit year’s crop are likely to average much higher than for any season since 1925-26. With fair yields and good prices In prospect Michigan po­ tato growers have an encouraging out­ look. "At present the outlook for sugar beet growers is fairly good. Yield prospects, despite the dry weather, in­ dicate a fair sized crop. The price of raw* sugar for the 1935-36 seasan has. been running from 25 to 90 cents per hundredweight higher than for the 1934-35 season. Stocks of raw sugar in Cuba and at domestic refineries are from 20 to 25 per cent less than a year ago. There is nothing to lead us to expect lower ,-etums per ton of su­ gar beets to growers of the 1936 crop than for last season's crop. "The livestock outlook continues en­ couraging. Total meat supplies arc expected to be smaller in 1937 than in 1936, largely because of the 1936 feed shortage occasioned by the drought. Reducokm Is expected to be most marked in pork and in the bet­ ter grades of beef. Further improve­ ment in consumer demand for meats Is also in prospect. As a result of these two factors—reduced supplies and improved demand—the general level of both meat and livestock pric­ es is expected to be higher in 1937 than In 1936.” Meata May Go Up In 1937. Because of the feed shortage, cattle and hog slaughter during the remain­ der of 1936 is expected to be relative­ ly large. Some decline in prices from now until the first of the year may result. With lighter weight and smaller supplies available for alaugh- ter in 1937, prices are likely to ad­ vance sufficiently sumcienuy to more than offset the prospective decline this fall. "Prices for dairy products for the next twelve months probably will av­ erage higher than a year earlier. Pro­ duction is expected to be curtailed somewhat and demand continue to Improve. Although the cost of feed will be higher than for last year Mich­ igan will not be faced with a hay shortage. Furthermore, last summer rains will Improve fall pastures. Dairymen of Michigan who are not required to buy much feed should ob­ tain higher net returns than during the past 12 months. "Poultry prices are likely to de­ cline by more than the average sea­ sonal amount from July to Decem­ ber, but egg prices probably will rise more than the average. Because of the increased number of chicks hatch­ ed and due to the drought conditions, more poultry will be available for market On the other hand, lower storage stocks of eggs and Improving consumer incomes should have a ben­ eficial effect on egg prices."

This bill was sent to House; amended there and returned (See Senate Journal, p. 919-920). Governor Fitzgerald sent ex-Assist. Attorney General O. L. Smith to bar of Senate and ahked Senator Mosier to table amendments on bill. Motion lost 8-23. Senator Mosier voted “Yes^ a? asked by Governor. Several other motions took place on amendment (See Journal, p. 960-961-963). Senator Mosier voted con­ sistently to kill amendments. The Governor fearful of result of Senate concurring in amendments of House, the amendment was tabled and kill­ ed by Senate which was satisfactory to Governor. The action of the Senate on the amendment was the same as Governor’s but there was a disagreement on the proce­ dure as history of the vote in Senate Journal will show. This is the bill over which there has been so much contro­ versy. The Senator voted for the bill and consistently voted to kill the amendment of the House. —Pol. Adv.

F- -U News in Brief The seventh home-coming of the Klpiatrick church was held last Sun­ day at the “church on the hill" A very interesting program was given and the’attendance was one of the largest in the church's history. The sunshine and coolness of the weather made the <ay ideal for the occaaionS At 11:00 the regular morn­ ing service convened. The speaker of the morning was Dr. H. C. Mason, President of Huntington college. An inspiring address on the subject, "The Key and the Key Flower." was appre­ ciated by the audience. In the ad­ dress the speaker said that every child held in his hands two things, the key which was the desire and ability to ask for information, and the key flower which was the ability to be­ lieve and have faith in the information gained. With this illustration a very worth while message wm developed. At noon a delicious dinner was ser­ ved in the Sunday school rooms of the : SCHOOL I SUPPLIES TABLETS — INKS [ PENCILS — ERASERS ■ RULERS — NOTE BOOKS PEN HOLDERS FOUNTAIN PENS WATER COLORS CRAYOLAS LUNCH KITS PAPER NAPKINS DICTIONARIES ETC. | Menerey’s I Drug Store HEXT TO POST OFFICE The afternoon program was one of unusual interest to tbe large audience which filled the church to overflow­ ing. Tbe first part of the program was composed of several musical numbers given by former members of the church who were present from away. Following the music, a church history in the form of a reading and tableaux wan given. This number was entitled "Our Church Album" and was a most impressive part of the day's program. Seven pictures made up the album. These were composed of characters in the costumes of long ago posed as our ancestors were in the album pictures and representing certain phases In the history of the church. With the music of the old hymns played on the organ and the reading of the history as a back­ ground the audience was able to more fully appreciate the growth of the church. This was the 80th anniversary of this church as an organized class and the 65th anlversary since the buildIng of the first. Though the church has had ita periods of setback it has not become discouraged through the years and is today one of the strong rural churches of the United Brethren Michigan Conference. For this church thanks God'for Hia presence and guid­ ance. Their wish is that they may continue to be of service to the com­ munity in which they labor through all the years to come.

S. navy, the engines, with rated horsepower of 997,500, are cap­ able to driving the "hip through the water at the rate of 34 knots. There are ten ships of this class in the navy The famous frigate Constitution (Old Ironsides) earned street cars and locomotives to the Paris Exposi­ tion in 1879. The ship was 82 years old at that time. A squad of recruits had been'out to the rifle range for their first try at marksmanship. They knelt at 250 yards and fired. Not a hit.

Michigan farmers filling silos this fall may effect economies in operating their ensilage cutters by considering some pointers given by D. D. Ebing­ er, Michigan State college agricultur­ al engineer. Ebinger suggests that farmers may be able to cut their power re­ quirements by giving careful atten­ tion to the cutter knives, adjustment of elevating wings, and by avoiding excess speed of the cutter. The knives should be sharp and should be set as closely as possible to the shear plate in order to produce the desired shearing instead of chopping action. The adjustment of the elevating wing should be close. Not more than oneeighth inch between housing and wing is necessary. Ebinger said. The blower should be set just to lift the ensilage over into the silo and not to provide any ercess lifting. Excess speed of the cutter increases power requirement About 400 revolutions per minute is sufficient for filling a 40-foot silo, he points out Farmers who have electricity avail­ able may find it desirable to use an electric motor in furnishing the pow­ er. A five-horsepower motor will be found satisfactory, provided the above points are considered. Ebinger said. .'we of such a motor will cut labor and operating cost, he said. About one Kilowatt of an electrical energy is needed for each ton of silage stored. —The Pet Milk Co. expects to open for business at Charlotte by SepL 16 with 26,000 or more pounds of milk in the first week.

The passenger business across the Straits grew to an extent of 49.4 per cent over that of 1934 and 21.7 per cent above that of 1935.

Some of the young people have been busy during part of the summer completing projects. Those who plan­ ned to do canning were rather disap­ pointed. for there was very little to can until the last few-weeks. Sew­ ing has fared somewhat better. Sev­ eral of the boys have been busy meet­ ing their Smith-Hughes require­ ments, too, during summer vacation. Mrs. Noble Again Nashville’s School Nurse. Mra.

There was much excitement at the school building Monday morning, for the young people were all anxious to see the new building, and to see the changes made in the old one. If they expected to find everything finished, they were disappointed, for there was still quite a bit to be done. However, it was possible to enroll the pupils and to meet classes. The day began with a general teachers' meeting at eight o’clock in the morning, with enrollment at nine. Following this the teachers met the classes for a few minutes each, mak­ ing assignments, and taking enroll­ ments in each class. The afternoon was devoted to meetings for the high school teachers and the grade teach­ ers. The enrollment for the first day is as follows: kindergarten. 12 boys, 3 girls: first grade, 12 boys, 5 girls; second grade, 10 boys, 9 girls; third grade, 11 boys, 7 girls; fourth grade, 8 boys, 8 girls; fifth grade. 6 boys, 11 girls; sixth grade, 14 boys. 13 girls; seventh grade, 10 boys, 14 girls; eighth grade, 9 boys, 11 girls.

Railroads From the brilliant electrical storm of Friday night, on over the week end. this area received its heaviest pre­ cipitation of the spring and summer, after a season's drouth which had previously been broken with showers. It is estimated that a possible five inches of rain fell in this area, which was followed by more heat and rain, with cool weather ahead according to weather prognosticators. Lightning Friday night struck and burned a new-old strawstack on the Robert DeCamp farm, one mile north and a mile east of the Hoamer school. The DeCamps were returning from Hastings, “rained out’’ on the evening fireworks at the county Fair, and saw the lightning bolt when by the Wes­ ley Breaks farm. A member of the family went to the Sebastian farm to phone, but no one was home, and so the Nashville fire departmnt received the call through the McIntyre Oil station, one mile north of Nashville, while Mr. DeCamp was busy confining the fire to the stack until its arrival. The department remained until 5 a. m. Saturday to prevent spreading of fire to buildings. Three young heifers belonging to Clarence Shaw were killed also in the Phil Dahlhouser pasture on the south side. As an aftermath of the perhaps un­ precedented rainfall, cellars and base­ ments. a number of them, were all flooded because of the inability of the sewers to carry off that quantity of water. A number of Main street stores are having a difficult time, with a plugged sewer, affecting the basement of the Menercy drug store and the Barnaby restaurant, with no real trouble yet in’the Beedle basement, which is the stock room and receiving station for stock for the four stores of Beedl^ Bros. , Workmen are engaged at this writ­ ing in an attempt to open the sewer, digging operations being under way in front of the Beedle store, beginning under the sidewalk. Menerey"s trou­ ble began Saturday after the Friday night storm. Philip P. Penfold, 59, Died At Home Here Blacksmith Here 25 Years. In III Health Several Years. Funeral At Wilcox Church. Philip P.

Newspaper space, post cards, bill, folders and posters are re­ commended as useful methods of ad­ vertising the stallion.

Cow* Eligible For Bigger Cud* Extension Dairyman Suggekts Cutting Roughages Ordinarily Wasted, To Avoid Buying Costly Feeds. Michigan dairymen with foresight will be able to save their check books fro embarrassment next winter by putting up now all the ordinary waste ro’jghages possible, points out A. C. Baltzer, Michigan State college ex­ tension dairyman. During the coming season in which it is obvious that feed supplies will be reduced, dairymen will find that an extra stack, mow, shedful or pitful of such material that ordinarily goes to waste, wil Icome in handy. Quality of the second mowing, wild hay, im­ mature com stover and other waste roughages may not be the best but it is important to garner all the crops possible from even-the fence rows, ditches and woodlots, says Baltzer. Farmers who have sufficient hay and other feed, by conserving these waste roughages, may be able to con­ vert thm into some extra cash or may be atle to sell some of their better fed. In making a clean sweep of the farm for all possible waste roughages, the farmer should not overlook swamp grass, beet tops, fescue and similar roughages. Bakery and brewery re­ fuse, apple pomace and pea vinery refuse have value to the hungry cow and can be converted into milk and butterfat "Feeding these low quality rough­ ages in small amounts dally may con­ serve more expensive feed," Baltzer advises. "The addition of molasses and the chopping or grinding of the material will help to make the rough­ age more palatable. “With every indication of high prices for grains and concentrates this coming fall and winter, low grade roughages can be fed to dry cows, due to stand dry for many months, young opdi heifers which must be wintered through, and in moderate quantities to the herd bull. “Regular additions of salt or mix­ ture of two pounds of salt and one pound odorless steamed bone meal to every one hundred pounds grain fed should be supplied. No money should be spent for the purchase of fancy mixed mineral mixtures other than steamed bone meal." 2755 eggs. In 1934-35 W. 6. Hannah and Sons, Grand Rapids, had a pen with a high individual bird laying 327 e&ga. That is real production." An increase of 50 eggs per year per bird in commercial flocks, it is point­ ed out, offers a real step in breeding more efficient poultry fo distribution from hatcheries and flocks. In the 13 contests already completed and the 14th, now in progress, the breeders making entries pay costs of the com­ petition. The high pen so far this year ta that of the Royal Poultry Farm at Zeeland wllh2226 eggs and seven weeks records still to be made. Find* Advantage In Early Culling Selection of the best individual* to form the nucleus for the winter and spring laying flock should be done before the poultry flock is put into winter quarters, says C. G. Card, Michigan State college poultry hus­ bandman. This work can be done quickly and easily now before bad weather sets i|, he advises. Usually not more than 30 to 40 per cent of the birds are sufficiently good to be retained after the first laying year. This is largely because the first laying year is, the bird's high pro­ duction year and the next year pro­ duction drops about 20 per cent. Card explained. Very few individuals ara worth keeping more tian two year*. Health, vigor, size, trueness to type and color as well as high egg produc­ tion should be the guides to a high standard. A bird in good laying con­ dition will have a large, broad vent that is motet and shows no pigment. A bird that stops laying soon has a vent that is dry and puckered and shows some'yellow around the edge. A good bird should have a broad, flat back carried well over the pelvic arches. Card says. It is obvious that the efficient laying flock is no place for cripples and sick birds. Coarsebeaded hens and hens that moult be­ fore the first of August should usual­ ly be eliminated. Card cautions, however, that culling is not the only thing to be done to in­ sure egg production. Proper housing and feeding are important factors not to be minimized. Undoubtedly, a great many discarded hens and pullets would have produced profitably had they been housed in dry, well-venti­ lated and well-lighted houses and fed a good ration. Details on culling methods may be obtained from Extension Bulletin 58 of Michigan State college, a copy of which may be obtained by writing to Bulletin Room, Michigan State col­ lege. East TansIng. Telephone Men Rely on Burros to Help Transport Poles Up Mt Lowe Protect Health By Treating Milk Raw Milk On Farm Can Be Pasteur­ ized EasUy To Help Avoid Milk Borne Diseases. Housewives in communities or on farms where commercially pasteuriz­ ed milk is not available, among ev­ eryday kitchen utensils have the means of effectively protecting fam­ ilies against possible infection caused by mastitis or other germs in milk, suggests C. S. Bryan, Michigan State college bacteriologist. These germs which may be respon­ sible for septic sore throat are des­ troyed by pasteurizing the raw milk in an ordinary double boiler such as the housewife uses in preparing cus­ tards. The raw milk is placed in the inner container of the double boiler and the water brought to a boil. As soon as the water starts to boil, the inner contalnei should be removed and the milk cooled immediately and placed in refrigeration to keep sweet Results of a study undertaken by Michigan State college bacteriologists to determine this simple and fool­ proof method of home pasteurization of milk are found in the August Quarterly Bulletin of Michigan State college. A copy may be obtained by writing to the Bulletin Room, Mich­ igan State college. East Lansing. Public health regulations, if enforc­ ed. are adequate to protect the con­ sumer of commercially pasteurized milk, such as those in cities, but do not protect farmer consumers since the milk received the treatment after it has left the farm. This condition indicate the desirability of home pas­ teurization. When a telephone line was re­ cently built up (he precipitous slopes of Mt Lowe, 5,280 feet high, in California, known since 1895 to hundreds of thousands of tourists ■who have traveled Its famous in­ clined railway or taken the difficult trail to the top, the same type of surefooted burros that have carried many a prospector's grubstake to u gold hoard in western mountains were used for the transportation of telephone poles. Telephone service to ML Lowe Tavern, 5,050 feet up, for yean de­ pended upon a telephone circuit su­ perimposed upon wires of the elec­ tric railway, which made it subject to electric power interference. This circuit was owned by the tavern, and was connected with wires of the Southern California Telephone Company, which has now replaced it with the new line, which runs to Pasadena. Few telephone poles have had as varied transportation up a moun­ tainside. Carried by railroad to the base of Mt Lowe, they were loaded upon tractors and hauled for the first leg of the Journey over an old mountain road with a 75 per cent grade. ’ * This brought them to the inclined railway, where they filled roles of guest passengers aboard the cable cars, with the seats removed. This part of the trjp covered 8,000 feet horizontally and l>200 feet vertical­ ly with 62 per cent grades. Then a narrow gauge railway car­ ried the poles another three miles, more or less horizontally, on a third leg toward the tavern. Here the trail becomes so tortu­ ous that only sure-footed burros would suffice for transport, with one pole to a burro. The center of each pole was balanced across a regular pack saddle, and a "mule skinner" assigned to help steer the load and balance it along the winding, pre­ cipitous trail. Copper wire in 75 pound lengths was also carried up the steep trail by the long-eared, long-haired, sad­ eyed little animals.

FLICKERING SWITCHBOARD LIGHT SAVES SEVEN UVES Mrs. Mildred B. Murphy, a tele­ phone operator in New Britain, Conn., is credited with saving the lives of seven persons who were sleeping in the home of Frederick R. Hall, the other morning when fire swept the building. The flames reached telephone wires, burning the insulation and causing a short circuit This caused a flickering light on the switchboard in front of the operator at the local telephone exchange. Suspecting that a fire might be the cause, Mrs. Mur­ phy notified her supervisor, and to­ gether they started ringing the tele­ phone bell In Hall’s home. The continued ringing of the tele­ phone bell awakened Hall, members of his family, and guests, and they were able to get safely out of the house.

J. - The American commercial banking credit system Is an absolute essential In the financial operations of business and government. Harold 0. Moulton, Presi­ dent of the Brookings institution of Washington, D. C.. said here recently tri an address before the Graduate School of Banking conducted under the joint auspices of Rutgers University and tbe ‘American Bankers Association. If the flexibility and expansibility provided by commercial banking credit were eliminated, Dr. Moulton declared, "it is scarcely too ranch to say that the economic system Itself would shortly be destroyed. "Normally the amount of'credit ex­ tended by commercial banks to the gov­ ernment is small in amount and for tbe purpose mainly of financing temporary requirements In anticipation of tax col­ lections or bond sales. But In periods of war and acute depression, when the financial requirements of government expand with great rapidity, the expan slon of commercial bank credit is on a tremendous scale. Such is the case at the present time.’ How Public Need* Are Financed "The purchase of government securi­ ties’by individuals and by the commer­ cial banks provides tbe government with the means by which its manifold activities are financed. The Treasury obtains the funds, with which the Reconstruction Finance Corporation and other government credit agencies finance their operations, through tbe sale of securities, largely to commercial banka. These funds, in turn; have gone to the assistance of distressed banks and other financial Institutions, to aid industrial and agricultural enterprises, to finance new public and private capi­ tal construction, and to provide relief to the uxcqspWycd." Dr. Moulton declared that It In not true than the world depression was caused by a breakdown of the American banking system "which did not. In fact, occur until the depression had been under way tor more than three years." He added: "Nor Is It true that the world mal­ adjustments existing In 1929 can be ex plained simply by undue extensions of commercial banking credit in the pre­ ceding years. These maladjustments In voived world agricultural. Industrial! commercial and financial relations." FARM ACCOUNTING REVEALS LESSONS Principles of Sound Business Management That Apply to All Farms An analysis made of detailed records kept by a group of Wisconsin farms revealed several Important lessons and the principles of sound business man agement derived from them apply equally well to other farms, says an article In the Bulletin of the Agricul tural Commission of the American Bankers Association. The article says: "Investment costs. Including inter est. depreciation, repairs, taxes and tn surance. are approximately two-thirds of all farm costs. Furthermore, these costs are largely Independent of the production program of the farm. "This means that it a farmer cuts his production of crops or livestock, he Increases bls Investment costs per unit of product produced, as a smaller number of units must then carry as large an expense load as before. This illustrates the importance, from tbe standpoint of costs, of operating a farm at or near capacity. "Investment mistakes are more cost­ ly than many others because they can­ not easily be corrected. If a farmer pays too much for bis farm, hla Invest­ ment costs will be abnormally high as long as he owns !L If he constructs a $4,000 barn, when a $2,000 barn wonld bave served bls purpose, be will have excessive barn coats, year after year, during tbe entire service life of the structure. "Thia emphasizes the Importance of a knowledge of Investment values and the specific investment requirements of individual farms.

HOW THE BANKS AID THE GOVERNMENT "In working for greater economy. It Is essential that the farm manager be able to distinguish between a real and a false saving. This can ba done only through a careful estimate of ths con­ tribution to income, over a period of time, of each Item of expenditure. Only If more la saved in expense than will be lost Id income, can a contemplated cut in expense be designated as a real saving. "For example, dropping dairy herd Improvement work .may result in a yearly expense reduction. The ques­ tion to decide Is what effect tbe drop­ ping of this work will have on the present and future Income from the dairy herd. If the estimated loss in live­ stock receipts due to a lowered effi­ ciency In feeding and breeding is greater than tbe orlgin.il saving, then It would obvlouxly be a false economy “SubstMEtia! savings can be effected on many farms through the use of :: more home grown garden produce and farm cured meats. Why pay out money for products of tbls kind that can be produced much cheaper at borne? The money saved from the family food budget ran be used for tha purchase of many things that will make the farm home a more comfortable and pleasant place to live."

The baseball teams of the battle­ ships on the Midshipman Training Cruise played three games while at Portsmouth. England. The first game was before the largest numbe of spec­ tators ever assembled for a sporting event at that city. The ship's teams had little opportunity for practice, but to the people who are not familiar with the American game It was thor­ oughly‘’entertaining. Tht most pop­ ular feature perior to the game was the flag raising ceremony, to which the British were not accustomed, and they did not hesitate to show their appreciation. The second game wts before several thousand school chil­ dren, and 8000 regular spectators. Later, a game was played with a -professional team of the Yorkshire League, which has recently started in that district The team of the Ar­ kansas. with a pitcher from the Wy­ oming. won this, 4-0. The proceeds were donated to local charities. Baseball enthusiasts claimed the games did much to convince the sporting public that it was the com­ ing game in that section. Navy Mother’s clubs and Navy Wives’ clubs are among the latest of navy organizations. There are 24 Na­ vy Mother’s clubs and more are be­ ing formed. They are in various parts of the country, while the Navy Wived’ clubs are located near ports where the units of the navy normally base. The U. S. S. Porter, second of the destroyer leaders to be built for the U. S. navy, was commissioned at the Philadelphia Navy Yard August 27. 1936. The first ship, the Phelps, is the other ship of this type, and they will be followed by ten more such vessels. They are of 1850 tons, compared with the 1500 tons of the new type des­ troyer, and the 1000 to 1200 tons of the destroyers built shortly after the late war. The new leaders are the first ships built expressly for this du­ ty. The armament includes eight fl­ inch rifles, eight anti-aircraft guns, and two qhadruple torpedo tube mounts. The additional aircraft pro­ tection is interesting, as the destroy­ ers of ten years ago were equipped with only one anti-aircraft gun. Whale boat and cutter racing is still the major sport of the U. S. navy. These events account for about onethird of the points awarded for the annual athletic competition. Tbe win­ ning ship may fly the "Meat Ball" pennant, as the flag, a red pennant with a black ball in the center, is called. This trophy is given one ship in each class for athletic supremacy. A U. S. navy ship with a square red or blue flag, with stars of white, fly­ ing from the after mast, indicates it is the ship to which an Admiral is at­ tached. The rank of the Admiral is shown by the number of stars: Rear - Admiral, two stars; Vice Admiral, ‘three stars; Admiral, four. Where there is more than one Admiral pres1 ent in the same grade, the senior fly* •a blue flag, the others, red. When a < Rear Admiral and Vice Adnjiral are together, both fly the blue, as there is ’ no possibility of confusion of which Is ■ the senior. The senioi officer present • has a solid blue pennant flying aft, as •a signal that he may be expected to give any orders to cover unusual cir­ cumstances. The ship’s paper of the U. S. S. Quincy, newest cruiser of the U. S. navy, after long thought by the crew, has been named, "The Yankee Clip­ per." This was considered the most appropriate of the names offered by the members of the ship’s company. Bluejackets In the U. S. navy wear neither suspenders nor belts vzith their trousers. The trousers are made waist tight fit In the days of -sailing ships when it was necessary to go aloft to furl or unfurl sail, it was not desired to have any loops or articles of clothing which might be caught on belaying pins or pin rails.

FHURSDAY, SEPT. 17, 1936 Lansing Comment. By T. E. Johnson. To Fight Amendment* *. With the primaries out of the way last Tuesday, the various interests are turning to the November election, which this year will be held on the third. Although a formal program has-not been laid out as yet, tenta­ tive plans for fighting the proposed amendments to the state constitution have been made. The two which are to be particu­ larly fought involve a proposal to do away with the sales tax on staple food stuffs and to abolish all property­ tax even for local purposes. Last week the Michigan industrial conference met in Lansing. This con­ sists of representatives of farming, educational, financial and industrial interests. They all went on record as being bitterly opposed to both pro­ posals. They felt that both the schools and highways would be imperiled by such movements. It is generally re­ cognized that the counties must have more money from some source to properly take care of the roods taken over from the townships under the McNitt AcL. Many townships were spending from $200 to $300 per mile for road repair and maintenances Now they have less than seventy for the same job. This means that nearly $8,000„000 more will have to be found if the roads are to be kept up as well as be­ fore*. This must come either from the sales tax or the property levy. The governor favors still more aid to many of the local sphool districts. This means that more money will be necessary to meet the situation. This can only come from the sales tax and liquor revenues. To take out all taxes on food stuffs would seriously de­ crease the income, is the view of those who are fighting the plan. Clark L. Brody of the Michigan Farm Bureau was particularly out­ spoken on the situation. He showed that farmers would be hurt very ma­ terially by such acton. One would re­ duce outside income and the other would block the only other source from which the deficit could come. M. B. McPherson, chairman of the state tax commission and president of the state supervisors association, said that he believed that every supervisor in the state would oppose the proper­ ty tax amendment and that most of them would oppose the other. Mr. McPherson is planning to call a meeting of his executive committee within a few days. They will then formulate plans and these will be dis­ cussed and passed upon by the full conference at another meeting to be held soon. It is expected that all the powerful influences which are primarily inter­ ested in education will unite on the drive. • A Great Success. James F. Thomson announced last week that the eighty-seventh annual meeting of the Michigan State Fair had been the most successful in his­ tory. The meet which closed on Sun­ day saw over 600.000 in attendance. Approximately 115,000 attended the great show on Labor Day, the biggest single day in teh history of the Fair. Mr. Thomson pointed out that this year’s success was largely due to the wondtlful cooperation of Michigan’s big industries. The automotive inter­ ests were especially helpful. He said that many thousands of people with city backgrounds left the Fair realiz­ ing as never before the importance of agriculture as an industry in Mich­ igan. In addition to the State Fair, those of the seventy-five district and coun­ ty Fairs held so far have been more largely attended than ever before. “In facL" said Mr. Thomson, “the old Fair of our childhood days has pass­ ed, but a vastly better and more im­ portant one has taken its place.” The state meets half of the prem­ ium money offered to the extent of $85,000. With the constantly grow­ ing importance of dairying in Mich­ igan, the live stock exhibits have steadily grown in importance and many large sales are made each year at these big meetings. A New Problem. With the coming of the larger state aid for school districts, tbe public has been faced with a new and serious problem, that of transportation. The greatly'increased number of school districts which have begun transporting their children to other schools has accentuated this problem because of the necessity for quick ac­ tion. Some districts have not been able to secure busses and private in­ dividuals are doing the work in their own cars. Many of these have not secured the proper license for doing the work for hire. Every such oper­ ator should get in touch with the Utilities Commission in order to have the proper credentials. School districts are in no wise liable for any accident because the public cannot be. However drivers can and should have liability insurance. Dr. Eugene B. Elliott has issued a very comprehensive bulletin in which 1 Pres. R. S. Shaw. R. J.

Michigan State Radio Highlights Owosso,—Two venerable Michi­ gan women, whose memories go back to the days of Andrew Jack­ son and James K. Polk, when Indians, bears, and log cabins were familiar parts of the Michigan scene, are going to do their bit in this year’s political campaign. Both residents of Owosso, Mrs. Eliza Goodale was born at Whit­ more Lake, Wvehtenaw county, 100 years ago, and ten years later Mrs. George W. McClellan was born eight miles from Owosso. Mrs. McClellan continues to keep up with the political news of the day and a radio broadcast by Mrs. C. L. Barber, of Lansing, vice-chairman of the Republican State Central Committee, brought from her the following letter to Mrs. Barber: “I heard yo’ir talk this noon and take the liberty for asking for some of the cards. I will do all tha good I can with them. I want to help dean tbe White House. My age prevents. doing a great deal. I am nearly ninety and nearly blind, but I ean see through the deception and treachery of the gang in Washington. My family were always loyal Americans. I am a grand-daughter of the man who fought seven years with Washing­ ton to make a constitution and I could not help destroy it. My own father helped to make the Repub­ lican party at Jackson. Please par­ don the liberty I have taken. I want to help all I ean. I feel our country is in great danger. I ask God to give us a Uneoln.” Grandfather in Revolution Tbe aged woman’s whole life has been bound up with stirring events in history of the America she loves so much. Her grand­ father, Benjamin Akeley, ran away to join George Washington’s forces when he was fourteen and fought with the Revolutionary Army for seven years. Her father, Daniel Akeley, helped form the Republican Party under the Jack­ son oaks in 1854. An uncle fought in the Mexican War and Mrs. Mc­ Clellan ha* a letter written by him in 1849 from Fort Washita in tbe then Chocktaw Nation in which be writes that he has re-enlisted for four years of Indian fighting. Her farm borne during the Civil War was a local station of tbe Under­ ground Railway where escaping slaves were kept over-night and then assisted on their way to safety in Canada.' “My whole life has been filled with tbe stories and legends of the men who fought to make and keep this country free," said Mrs, Mc­ Clellan. “In every generation since Washington some member of my family has done hi* part tb keep America what she was intended to be.' I am the last of my family and I must carry on their work. I think America has reached a time of great danger once more. I am going to do my bit.” Owoaso’s Oldest Resident “In 1902 I visited Washington and I saw the White- House. I picked a chestnut from a tree on the lawn there and brought it back to Owosso and planted it ‘Hist tree there beside the house is tnc result I know what tbe White House has always stood for in America and I know that the gang that’s in there now doesn’t belong there. We’ve got to get them out’’ Mrs. McClellan says she is too old to be fooled by Roosevelt, Farley, or Tugwell. She described the visits of Indian chiefs to her home and said they always had ten or fifteen warriors in single file behind them; she refers to them as the “original brain-trusters.” Mrs. Goodale, wife of the first white child born in Shiawassee county and Owosso’s oldest resi­ dent, is pearly deaf but her eye­ sight is unimpaired. She signed her name Co a nominating petition of Governor Frank D. Fitzgerald in a firm hand and without the aid of glasses. She lived as a child in a log cabin near New Haven. The many Indians in the vicinity were friendly to the white settlers un­ less they had been drinking, she said, and bears occasionally ambled through her father’s corn field and had to be driven away. The con­ crete highway that is now M-27 was a log road, which floated away in a heavy rain. Mrs. Goodale took a promineotpart in Owosso’s centennial cele­ bration in July. She remembered that when she was a child her father hitched his ox to a two­ wheeled cart and took the family over tbe corduroy roads to Owosso to see her first circus. She has many aches and pains, she said, but she spends some time every day in her garden. As a young woman she made all the clothes for her family and recently made herself two dresses—and she threaded tbe needle herself, she taid proudly. �THE NASHVI1.LE NEHB, THURSDAY, KEPT.

PRIV ATE JOBS ON INCREASE higher standard in the aUte’s teach- lioti announced that four yeans of col­ 'lege training would be required here­ after for the granting of a life teach­ J ing certificate. The minimum has been three years. . In 1939 a new rule will become ef­ fective under which Life certificates , will be discontinued, to be substituted by a plan of issuing temporary teach­ ing certificates to college graduates who must serve a three-ycar "interne­ ship’ 'to prove their qualifications be­ fore receiving permanent certificates. The permanent certificates will lapse if the teacher is unemployed for any five year period. Dr, Elliott said the plan will permit the weeding out of Incompetence and assure a better standard of teaching in the schools.

There were 1203 young Americans enlisted in the United States Navy for the first time in July of this year. These new recruits were the men se­ lected at the various 258 recruiting stations from the 15,336 applicants for enlistment. In addition 50 colored men were enlisted for the Mess At­ tendant branch, and 131 recnlistmeents at recruiting stations. Reen­ listments are authorized only upon recommendation of the commanding officer who signed the discharge. Most of the men now in the .iavy reenlist on the ship or station from which they were discharged. Navy Cooperates With Stamp Col­ lectors.

NEW TYPE SCHOOL BUILT BY WPA IS WINDOWLEWS A new. air-conditioned school, de­ signed to minimize the dangers of cold epidemics among children in‘accord­ ance with the latest principles <f building construction, is nearing co'opletion at Whitedale as a WPA pro­ ject The structure will accommodate 60 school children in Doyle township. Schoolcraft county, replacing an obso­ lete building which burned down. , Ingeniously-planned to permit max­ imum temperature control under all weather conditions, the school is win­ dowless. In place of standard win­ dows, which admit uncontrollable gusts of wind frequently harmful to youngsters, skilled WPA workmen in­ staled large sections of hermeticallysealed glass bricks, each four inches thick. Engineering tests have proved this new type construction will accomplish a three-fold purpose: It provides ideal light for class­ rooms. The glass brick, because of Its vac­ uum center, supplies perfect insula­ tion, retaining heat to a degree 20 per cent warmer than a 13-inch standard brick wall. WPA engineers estimate this will reduce considerably the cost of heating the building. The completely-enclosed structure will assure perfect temperature con­ trol at all times, thus checking t he spread of colds to unaffected children. The air in classrooms will be regulat­ ed from a conditioning unit attached to the heating plant in the basement. Having only two exits, the main entrance and a basement door the school is one of a few of its type in the country and a forerunner of fu­ ture school architecture. THURSDAY, SEPT, 24, IBM Laming Comment By T. E. Johnson. Ready For Battle. The passing of the primaries • on Tuesday of last week sees both ma­ jor parties anxious for the fray. In addition to the two traditional foes, the Republicans and the Democrats, this year secs an additional entry into the field, the Union party. Its entry will be under the head of the farmer­ labor party because the union group did not organlx in time to enter un­ der the Michigan election laws. The Republicans under the leader­ ship of Frank D. Fitzgerald will wage a hard battle with the entire admin­ istration forces backing Frank Mur­ phy in his fight for the governorship. Mr. Murphy plans an energetic and forceful campaign to secure the honor of being governor of Michigan. In his past battles in Detroit he has had the support of the Detroit Times, which daily has gone the full lengths to car­ ry the day for him. This year the Times is lined up on the opposite side of the struggle, being with the Re­ publicans throughout. However it will be a battle. The Republicans were greatly encouraged when they found that they had cast more votes in the primary than had the Democrats. This fact together with the results in Maine have con­ vinced them that they can win. On the other hand the Democrats believe that with the support of the national group, they will have no difficulty in turning the tide of battle in their own favor. The naming of former governor Wilber M. Brucker as the senatorial candidate has further convinced the traditional Republicans that the peo­ ple of Michigan are opposed to the "New Deal." This has lent them fur­ ther fighting strength. The defeat of George W. Welsh on the other hand has led the Democrats to feel that after all the Democrats of the state are thoroughly in accord with the president and his policies in­ asmuch as Mr. Murphy was the ad­ mitted candidate of the national ad­ ministration. Perhaps the most surprising result was the fact that the Townsend groups did not have the influence which it had expected they would yield. The renomination of Congress­ man Clare Hoffman in the fourth when he was aob itterly opposed by these organizations was a real sur­ prise to many. Mr. Hoffman has now came out in favor of a real old age retirement fund and says he will work for it although he does not sup­ port the $200 per month idea of the Townsendites. In any case it would appear that both major parties will do all in their power to bring out a large vote at the regular; November election. Michigan is to be one of the battle grounds of the 1936 campaign. Navy Band Will Play In Michigan. The United States Navy Band, which broadcasts over a national net­ work from the Navy Yard, Washing­ ton, D. C., will appear in Flint, Mich­ igan. this fall while on a tour of the country.

Hyacinthe, tulips and narcissi for spring lowering in 1837 should be in the ground now in order to get a good start, advises P. R. Kroe. exten­ sion specialist in horticulture at Mich­ igan State college. Hyacinths should be set two to five inchs below the sur­ face of the soil, deeper in sand than in heavy soil. Tulips; should be placd three to four inches in tht soil ex­ cept Darwins which go an inch lower. Narcissi should be planted two times the depth of the bulb for best results. None of these three flowering bulbs will do as wii in clay as they will in a light fertile loam, according to Mr. Krone, Import* Worry. The farmers of Michigan have been greatly worried about the greatly in­ creased imports of farm products into the United States and especially Michigan since, the tariff reductions have been made. While Michigan is not a prominent agricultural state, the cwr.mlMtfoner of gari culture, Jas. F. Thomson, has repeatedly pointed out that it ts in process of becoming one. Michigan has been a bay. fruit and cattle state tor a number of years anfl is becoming more and more prominent m toe fMd of agriculture each year. The imports into the United States of cattle have increased steadily from 83,000 head in 1931 to 365.000 in 1935. This has repeatedly broken the market when Michigan cattle were be­ ing offered for sale. At the same time the importation of hogs in­ creased from 151.000 to 3,414,000. The imports of butter grew from 1,882,000 lbs. to 22,675.000 lbs. Meat products more than'doubled and corn imports rose from 818,000 bushels to over 43,000,000 bushels. Naturally these changes have hit the Michigan farmer hard and he is anxious to do some­ thing to prevent the continuation of their importations. Mr. Thomson feels that the time has come when Michigan producers should take an active stand to save their own business. WSW. - CSvfl Service Esaudnatlons. ; road Retirement Board. Applicants The U.

The area has been increased and the sands have been shown to be of a greater depth than had been heretofore demonstrated. This means that in all probability there will be enough gas in Michigan to allow a number of communities not now being serviced to be given natu­ ral gas on a hundred per cent basis. This includes of course Grand Rapids and environs. The case against the Grand Rapids Gas Light Co. has been adjourned in­ definitely due to the illness of chair­ man William Smith of the utilities commission. Walkling Thwarted. The case of the so-called electrifi­ cation committee of which L. Walkling is the active head, was denied by the Supreme court. Mr. Walkling had tried to have his organization allowed by the securities commissioner to is­ sue securities. The commisioner. Mrs. Alice Alexander, refused to approve their issues, saying that matters of this ki^d belonged to the utilities com­ mission. The court said she was right in her contention. The official rural electrification committee has insisted that the group promoted by Mr. Walkling was of no value to the farmers themselves, as the work they were asked to pay for. was being done by the public without any charge to the local consumer. Sound wsvmi travel through the ah- at a speed ot about 770 miles an hour. How far a sound can be heard depends, of course, on bow loud it Is; but It is only exceptionally loud noises, such as the thunder of heavy artillery or the roar of a volcanic explosion, which can be heard at a distance greater than a relatively few mllea. • A Electric waves travel infinitely faster. Radio waves flash through the ether with the speed of light: 188,000 miles per second. Even though electric waves are slowed up somewhat when they travel along wires, the slowest of these can cover about 10,000 miles in one second. The distance at which electric waves can be received depends either on the power with which they are trans­ mitted or upon the amplification which they receive along the way, or both. * When the historic round-theworld telephone call was held last pany’s Long Lines department, electric waves carried the voice im­ pulses by wire and radio circuits from New York around the globe to New York in about one-quarter of a second. The electric waves ware amplified by 980 vacuum tubes at different points an their journey.

Left: Mrs. Joel Foote, who recently Identified herself as the third operator from the left In tho old drawing. Mrs. Foote ie holding a crocheted mat which oho mode 54 years ago. Back in the early ’eighties, when the telephone was still a novelty, there were relatively few tele­ phones tn use, even in the larger cities. Consequently, telephone calls came in to the central office tor switching at infrequent intervals. In contrast with the busy switch­ boards of today, telephone opera­ tors had “time on their hands.” It was not unusual, in that day, for op­ erators to take sewing, knitting, or crocheting to the switchboard with them. This leisurely era was dramati­ cally recalled a short while ago when an elderly woman resident of New Haven, Conn., who had ex­ pressed an interest in seeing mod­ ern telephone operating, was being shown through one of the city’s cen­ tral offices. Her guide was astound­ ed when she informed him that she had been a telephone operator in the city in 1881 and 1882, about 55 years ago. When shown a drawing of New Haven’s switchboard made in 1882, the visitor, Mrs. Joel Foote, not only recognized it but identi­ fied herself as one of the operators pictured un duty. ’’There I am,’’ said Mrs. Foote, “third one from the end.” Beside her, in the drawing, is easily recognizable some feminine handiwork, and It was when she was questioned about this that Mrs. Foote disclosed that telephone op­ erating in those days left time for making various items. “That’s cro­ cheting,” she explained, and further astounded her guide by saying that she still had the table mat which she had crocheted there at the switchboard more than half a cen­ tury ago. The first commercial telephone exchange in the world had been opened in New Haven in 1878. As Mrs. Foote recalls, there were in 1881 five exchanges that could be reached from New Haven. They were located at Bridgeport, Derby, Hartford, Meriden and New Britain, and the total number of telephones, including New Haven’s 578, was 1,528. She served at the switchboard for two years, and by the end of 1882 the number of exchanges in the territory had Increased to twentysix with a total of 3,968 telephones —more than double the number of telephones within a year. ■ Indians Adopted White Man’s Magic To Help Their Rain God's Powers �Elizabeth Smith Travels Abroad (Continued fmni first page) I had on my three-piece suit, my heaviest winter coat which I dug out of ray trunk, and three blankets, and believe it or nnt. I was Min very cold Everyone said to keep going if possi­ ble. but every time I’d attempt to walk. I'd have to run for the rail. I finally gave it up as a bad job, and went to my room. In spite of every­ thing I managed a wonderful night's sleep and woke much refreshed. "An attempt to dress, however, led me to the sage conclusion that the horizontal is infinitely preferable to the vertical. Consequently I spent the morning below. I made it to the deck in the afternoon, still with no food. But toward evening I began to get my sea-legs and ate my first food since Tuesday night. That revived me. and I proceeded to enjoy life from then on. Today I am wholly recovered, and life is looking up. I can think of food again without getting nauseated, and that is something anyway. I am not so anxious for the trip to end now. All the people on boaru are friendly, and I guess we’ll have some fun. The ocean is a divine blue today and it is warm, because we are in the gulf stream.

Twenty-five groups have al­ ready* enrolled their organization with Mr. Foster. The main course for the winter will be on Second Year Clothing, a follow­ up of last year’s work. The five les­ sons this year will be on the subject, "The Well Dressed Woman." Miss Eleanor Cramer, clothing specialist of Michigan State college, will give the lessons to the local group leaders. The first lesson will be given on October 27 and 28, and after that a lesson about every four weeks. The first lesson will study style trends and their adaption to individ­ ual needs both from buying new clothes or remodeling clothes of last year. Following lessons will cover colors and lines, accessories, founda­ tion garments and up to date con­ struction processes as well as posture. This year's lesson will not include as much construction work as last year, therefore five or six more local groups could be accommodated if new groups wish to enroll. Before a local group can enroll for the work, it te necessary that there be at least six women interested in the work. These women will then elect a president and secretary of the group and appoint two leaders to attend the lesson meeting with Miss Cramer and then relay the legson on to the local group. Further information on the organization of groups can be secured from the county agent’s office. BARRY DEMOCRATS HOLD CO.

With less than six per cent of the world's land area and population, the United States has 32 per cent of the entire world's railroad mileage The railroads buy more than 70.000 individual commodities, ranging all the way from, pins and needles to bridges and locomotives. Many freight trains are now oper­ ated on schedules almost as fast as passenger trains. These facts, issued by the Associa­ tion of American Railroads, give an idea of the astonishing progress that as been made in railroad transporta­ tion. The chances arc that more im­ provement has been achieved in op­ eration since the war than in any like period since the industry's inception. When you take a trip on a modern railroad train today, you usa the highest developed media of transport the world has yet seen. It may be hot and humid outside, but inside your car spring weather prevails—because the rails have spent more than $50,­ 000,000 on air-conditioning since 1932. The train is practically silent and vi­ brationless — and it can.carry you through a dust storm without soiling your white suit It will take you to your destination in a remarkably short time, and at a very low coat Should you cat meals enroute, you’ll find that dining cars no longer prac­ tice the "robbery*’ of which they used to be accused—the cost for meals is the same as in any good res­ taurant More Americans are traveling by Railroad.

He may have forgotten his previous training in Stop, Look and Listen, therefore it would seem wise to accompany him to school the first few weeks. Talk with him about traffic signs, teach him to use cross walks and not to dash through the middle of the street We learn by doing, and in this way you will establish a habit which will carry over when the child walks by himself.

You will enjoy a new kind of com­ panionship with your child, besides getting in some fine exercise. Branded. If some system could be devised by which a man who is convicted of flagrant traffic violation could be made to drive a branded car, we would see a mast rapid decrease in accidents. No man wants to be branded publicly. In olden times a man lost an ear or ■ bad his flesh seared by a red hot iron if he violated the laws of his country. There is no greater criminal than the man who skims over the road at high speed, weaving in and out around cars on curves and hills. What a help to be warned ahead of time that a maniac of speed is ap­ proaching. To see a red flag, a white cross, or a skull and cross bones em­ blazoned on the radiator ox' his car would be a warning to move over, alow down and allow the wild man to pass. After a period of probation the emblem could be removed. It is said that a certain European country follows this practice and is finding it successful. Self-reliance American agriculture, On The Farm, like American indus­ try, goes through bad times as well as good and must face plenty of serious problems—but the average farmer is far fipm the weak sister that some of our profes­ sional “farm reliever*" seem to think. Self-reliance still is his foremost characteristic. Proof of that is xuund in the statis­ tics showing the growth and develop­ ment of agricultural selling co-opera­ tives. These co-ops were in their in­ fancy fifteen years ago—today they are "big business" and tomorrow they will be bigger business still. They grew rapidly during depression. They are owned and operated by their mem­ bers, who appoint executives precise­ ly as do stockholders of a corporation. And these cooperatives, loyally and enthusiastically backed, are fighting the farmers' battles and getting re­ sults. Fifty years from now, when the history of agrictulture and the 'twen­ ties and 'thirties is written, it will probably be the cooperatives, not the farm relief laws, which will be given the main credit for farm achievement both farming and manufacturing must prosper in order that either may prosper. Neither can be sacrificed for the other. Far­ mers must be able to buy the things the manufacturer makes, and the manufacturer must be able to buy the things the farmer raises. They arc more and more using farm crops. He mentions soybeans in the process of building cars as better and leas expul­ sive than material formerly used. In a practical—not sentimental—way Ford says developed uses , of farm crops by manufacturing industries will take care of the problem of sur­ pluses. As farmers find out the kind* of crops for which the greatest de­ mand exists, they will govern their planting accordingly. Ford predicts that “raw materials in the near fu­ ture will come from annually grown crops instead of from nature’s forest and mineral resources." The best kind of farm relief, says Ford, is gieater utilization of farm products in the industries which are largely depend­ ent on farmers for support. In this achievement, toward which much pro­ gress has been made, “we shall." says Ford, "all march together to a great­ er prosperity than we have ever be­ fore enjoyed.” He insists that city and farm dwellers must move forward abreast. Call The Fire Writing in “Safe­ Department. guarding America Against Fire.” Chief Engineer George W. Booth of the Na­ tional Board of Fire Underwriters, calls attention to the great import­ ance of calling the fire department promptly when a blaze breaks out. "Even in fireproof buildings serious loss may be expected when there is a dewy in discovery of fire," says Mr. Booth, who then recommends interior local alarm systems, automatic alarms and sprinklers and similar equipment “The first duty of everyone on discov­ ery of a fire is to make sure that the alarm has been transmitted to the fire department" This doctrine is as applicable to homes as it is to factories and places of busines. Many a fire that could have been tally extinguished had the fire department been summoned at once, has been allowed to grow to ser­ ious proportions. Amateur "fire fight­ ing” 'is apt to do more harm than good. A small fire that looks as if it could be easily extinguished with a garden hose can turn a home into an inferno while the householder is get­ ting ready in his attempt to put it out Every year, people attempt to ex­ tinguish gasoline and oil fires with water—even though every schoolboy knows that this simply spreads the flame, and that only chemical extin­ guishers will woi k effectively. And thousands of people .thinking it need­ less to call the fire department for a small fire, try to put it out them­ selves without proper knowledge or equipment. Sometimes they are suc­ cessful—but when they fail, great and needless property loss, and per­ haps loss of life, result When fire starts, call the fire de­ partment—and call It at once. That’s what It's for. "Organized industry has been an integral part of America for only a hundred years," said an outstanding econo­ mist recently. “And yet the evidenc­ es of industrial growth, with all its allied expansion of transportation and communication, as vested in securi­ ties upon the New York Stock Ex­ change alone, are now appraised at ninety billions of dollars." Many factors have entered into that astonishing growth—and one of the important factors has been the work of the security exchanges. Without them, it would have been extremely difficult to sell stocks and bonds—the potential purchaser, knowing that there was no central market place where security prices were quoted daily, would not have known the fair price for an issue, and naturally would have been hesitant to invest in iL Again, he would have been logi­ cally afraid that if he wished to dis­ pose of his holding in the future, there would be no quick, simple and $90,000,000,000 Worth Of Industry.

It is normal and natural to enjoy a calm, unworried happy sense of existence. It is abnormal and unnatural to be enslaved by fear In the first chapter of Genesis we read, "And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good." Cnristian Science declares this spiritual truth of the allness of good. On page 207 of the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures,” by Mary Baker Eddy, is is the following vstatement: "There *" but one primal cause. Therefore there can be no effect from any other cause, and there can be no reality in aught which does not proceed from this great and only cause." Tiie thinker who is ready to accept these statements as true and as cor­ relative percieves at once that in real­ ity there is no cause- for fear, because there is no source from which evil can emanate. Let the individual who is mentally giving way to apprehension of any sort stop for a moment to analyze the situation—to inquire closely into the origin of the black cloud which ap­ pears ready to envelop him. A pro­ cess of clear human reasoning, based upon the foundation fact of perfect Principle governing the real universe in absolute harmony, will reveal the foUy of yielding one’s mentality to any phase of fear; and so the mantle of dread will slip from self-burdened shoulders. When we indulge a sense of fear we give certain evidence that we are believing, even though it be but mo­ mentarily. in a power opposed to God. It may then be but a brief mental step to the point where we find our­ selves accepting the assumption that this malevolent influence is real end greater than God. Conversely, when we perceive that evil is without the slightest reality, because it occupies no place in God's kingdom, we are We able to prove its nothingness. realize that even the belief that we are yielding to fear is in itself unreal.

The Scriptural promise had been fulfilled. Faith in the ability of divine Love io meet our every need always brings right reward. Intelligent reliance up­ on God is able to "furnish a table in the wild ernes*," will in due course solve every economic problem. It is heartening to realize that Christian Science is freeing mankind from fear .The truth that divine Mind has created all perfect and eternal, LIBERTY BELL and that the continuity of good has never been threatened, is constantly ’ becoming clearer. Men are learning to trust Him more implicitly, learning i listen more intently for His ever- j guiding voice, learning to rest with sweeter confidence in the “everlasting arms." Such trust will not be unre­ warded. As one better understands the unchanging law of good be proves that his right to mental freedom is FELS NAPTHA not a mere theory but a demonstrable fact.

Atwood's comment was voiced as he compared “unofficial" results of the Sept. 15 primary elections, with "of­ ficial" returns being filed in the De­ partment of State by county boards of canvassers. "Newspapers get their information by messenger, phone, telegraph and in writing, in systems carefully planned in each office," the Secretary of State said, adding: "It has always been a matter of wonder to me that with all the rush and ne­ cessity for speed and accuracy, and all the possibility of errors, that our election results are reported a* fully and quickly ss they are.

It was true that borers had at­ tacked varieties with no precise choice of one for another, indicating less strength in the once popular idea that borer resistant plants had odor or flavor not liked by the borers. Plans of the farm crops department for 1937 include making a more scien­ tific check of these tough and soft com stalk varieties to find out if the toughness of the stalk resists borers. The toughest stalks dried out to a hard woody state with very little pith while the more susceptible varieties dried out with the pith in a more nor­ mal state.

' x Major Howard Starret, State Reem­ ployment Director, answered this question asked by a group of young people seeking jobs through the Na­ tional Reemployment Service. He said an employe passes with a high grade if he or she can truthfully answer "yes" to the following ques­ tions: J. Do you exhibit a team spirit in your work and are you enthusiastic about your organization? 2. Do you plan your day's work and do it as quickly as possible with­ out sacrificing quality? 3. Do you make few errors and do you keep your desk and work tidy and clean as well as your personal ap­ pearance? 4. Do you meet customers or clients courteously and cheerfully and do you react toward your fellow employees in the same manner? 5. Are you alert for ways to im­ prove your employer's business and do you continually make an effort to improve your knowledge of the job? "Getting a job," Major Starret told them, "is only the first step to suc­ cess. You should give constant at­ tention to holding the job to which the National Reemployment Service sends you. Most employers are look­ ing for the good employee and are ready to reward him. Whatever you do, don't take your job for granted as soon as you are hired. Raises and promotions aren’t received that way. Besides, you may be unpleasantly Miss Doris Jaffe and Miss Dehring, surprised.” teachers in the Ionia city schools, The date on your paper shows spent the late afternoon and early ev­ ening of Friday with the former's par­ the time to which your subscrip­ ents, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Jaffe, re­ tion is paid.

Anniversary Of Important Lakes Naval Battle. On September 10, 1813, a naval en­ gagement of great importance to Michigan and Ohio waa fought on Lake Erie. The ships taking part were constructed on the Lakes, and were, for the most part, of green tim­ ber. There were six English vessels, and nine U. S. ships. The fleets met in the western part of the lake, the flayahip of Perry well in the lead, and receiving the brunt of the first fire. Perry's flag, bearing the dying words of Lawrence, who lost the Chesa­ peake off Boston the previous year, "Don't give up the ship," was taken to the Niagara when the flagship Lawrence was seen to be in a sink­ ing condition. When the eight re­ maining ships came into action, the enemy fleet was quickly defeated. Perry s report of the battle was writtn on the back of an old letter, say­ ing, "We have met the enemy, and they are ours — one ship, two brigs, one schooner, and one sloop.” The victory regained the Michigan terri­ tory, and had a marked effect on the peace negotiator. The original flag, bearing the words, “Don't give up the ship," has been carefully preserved, and Is on display in Memorial Hall at the U. S. Naval Academy, where it serves as an inspiration for the na­ tion’s future naval officers Navy Recruiter Slated For Transfer. John T. Weigand, Chief Waterten­ der, U. S. Navy, on duty at the main office, Michigan-Ohio Navy Recruiting District, has received authority from the Bureau of Navigation to transfer to the Class F-4-D, Fleet Naval Re­ serve, after completion of twenty years service with the navy. He en­ listed immediately after the declara­ tion of war, April, 1917, and spent the first four years aboard the U. 8. S. Delaware. He' was assigned to the Maryland, the first of the U. S. Na­ vy's 16 Inch gun ships, and later ser­ ved aboard the hospital ship Relief. In 1928 he was In the commissioning crew of the aircraft carrier Saratoga. His service has been with the four ships, and the Navy Recruiting sta­ tion, Detroit. During this time he haa been discharged for expiration of enlistment only twice. His first en­ listment was fee the duration of the war, extending this for two years, in 1919, and discharged in 1921. Reen­ listing for a four year term. In 1925 he again extended, this time for four years. After discharge in 1929, and reenlistlng for four year, he extended in 1933, and has enough time to do on this enlistment to bring his ser­ vice past the twenty year mark. He is to transfer to the Reserve on Au­ gust 4, 1937, Admiral Standley. Acting Secretary of the Navy, said in an address be­ fore the American Legion convention: "In the long history of warfare, the transporting of the A. E. F. to France and its maintenance there in a condition of battle efficiency is the greatest troop movement ever at­ tempted. Without the JJavy—our own and our allies'—to command the sea, to pen the enemy to his own bases, such a movement could not even have been contemplated, much leas success­ fully carrier out.” Navy Bill answers a question.

NUTOLEO BUTTER MOTOR OIL NORTHERN TISSUE PRUNES CATSUP S VARIETIES COOKIES BEGIN PLANS FOR FALL COLOR TOURS LN MICHIGAN Plans for the annual color tours through the Flaming Forests of Mich­ igan. which should be at their height about the middle of October already are going forward. Newaygo, first to gponsor a color tour as such, will again center its trip through the roll­ ing country surrounding the Muske­ gon river valley and will make an at­ tempt to interest more people in mak­ ing the river trip, by boat from Cro­ ton to Newaygo between the banks of flaming color. At Cadillac plans are being made to lay out seven color tours so its visit­ ors can stay for a full week and make a different tour each day. Possibly a favorite tour will be to Caberfae tow­ er, the tall wooden fire tower in the National Forest where the Forestry Service is establishing a park site and from which miles of forest clad hills may be seen. Many of the cottage iwners plan to keep their cottages op­ en during the color tour season so that the visitors may remain over to make the trips and to fish in Cadilac's inland lakes. Manistee also will utilize the Na­ tional Forest as a high spot in its color tours. Frankfort plans to glorify the wooded hills of Benzie county with color tours and has set October 10 to 20 for its Color Festival. Traverse City also will mark the scenic routes surrounding that resort city at the hub of Grand Traverse and Leelanau counties. MANY' SCHOOL BUSES FOUND AGED, UNSAFE Though the state law requires a fire extinguisher shall be carried in every school bus, Michigan State Police found 104 out of 283 buses without one. Two hundred forty-aeven out of the 283 were without fiist-aid kits. In one county operating two buses, one was 15 years old .the other 13. The average age of the 283 was five and one-half years. This startling situation that led Commissioner Oscar G. Olander to de, clare that Michigan had been indeed fortunate in the infrequency of its bus tragedies was disclosed in the course of an inspection directed by Michigan State Police as part of a National Youth Administration pro­ ject. One bus was found in daily opera­ tion with strap-iron bolted over the rear door, the hinges having been broken. Some 20 children entered and left the vehicle by climbing thru the driver's compartment. But 34 of the 283 drivers had undergone mental. ; visual and auditory tests. । But one bus of the 283 was given a mechanical inspection before each trip. Four of the number were in­ spected "every five' years.” News Want Ada. Gel Basuita. Protection Of Trees Has Cost Large Sum ■W ild Frail And Nut Tram Alone The Highway Are Cared For By The State Department. High praise for the state highway department's tree-spraying program of the past summer was expressed this week by a leading Michigan en­ tomologist. Prof, Ray Hutson, head of the en­ tomology department at Michigan State college, said the department's program had not only saved trees along the highways but had also help­ ed reduce infestation somewhat back from the roadsides. >10,958 had been spent on the tree­ spraying program starting June 15 and continuing through Aug. 11. More than 591.000 gallons of spray so­ lution were applied to 55,498 shade trees along the roadsides. The pro-, ject provided 10,921 man-hours of la­ bor. "These expenditures were with state funds,” the commissioner said, “and I believe they were fully justi­ fied. The trees that we saved will pay us rich dividends in rural beauty along our highways." The sprayers, mounted on trucks, were operated from daylight to dark during the program period. A crew of four or five men manned each of the four high-pressure sprayers used in the campaign. Commissioner VanWagoner named Shiawassee. Genesee, Kent, Ionia, Washtenaw, VanBuren, Kalamazoo, Barry, Eaton, and Ingham as the most seriously infested counties. Oth­ er counties in which the campaign was conducted were: Clinton. Gratiot. Gladwin, Huron, Lapeer, Midland, Isabella, Mecosta, Montcalm, Muske­ gon, Newaygo, Oceana, Ottawa, Bay, Saginaw, Sanilac, St Clair, Tuscola, Allegan, Berrien, Branch, Calhoun. Cass. St Joseph, Hillsdale. Jackson, Lenawee, Livingston Macomb, Mon­ roe. Oakland, and Wayne. AU of the walnut, butternut, and ■kory trees along the roadsides in the above-named counties were spray­ ed, most of the wild cherry, and some of the oak and elm trees. Losses in forest trees resulting from the drouth this summer require re­ planting either this fall or next spring. Advice from W. Ira BuU, ex­ tension forester at Michigan State college, suggests the time for the re­ planting. North of a line between Bay City and Ludington fall planting is recommended. South of this line in the state replanting in spring is conriflered best because fall planted trees in this southern section are subject to frost heaving. Forest tree seed­ lings to use for this purpose can be obtained through the forestry depart­ ment of Michigan State college at East Lansing at a nominal cost. 6c -- 91c 19c 20c 10c 10c 3 WHIZ - MICHIGAN MILLED 21c PANCAKE FLOUR PURITAN MAPLE SYRUP Pint i«.R 19e Fall Flour 8 Feed Sale FLOUR “■« *2T73c BUY A BARREL Mfc-lb. •ack •4%-lb. •ack LABORATORY TESTED COUNTRY CLUB BUY A BARREL •7c •6.79 EIGHT SACKS $1.12 OB riLLSBCRY*S BUY A BARREL 77c •5.99 EIGHT SACKS BUY A BARREL COLD MEDAL 65.69 EIGHT SACKS MiailGANS FAVORITE KING’S FLAKE »8.7fl EIGHT SACES 95c ULY WHITE FLOUR VESCO EEEFX rEEv 97.45 EIGHT SACKS BUY A BARREL SCRATCH $2.35 100-lb. bag 100-lb.

I | Here’s the Champ Grand Champion “Jolly** “ JOLLY” has a lot of things to J be happy about. He's the huge Clydesdale which literally walked away with most of the first awards in the commercial horse show at this year’s Michigan State Fair. He won two blue ribbons, first •ward at the halter and firs* award in the single hitch. He won the grand champion gelding ribbon, this award also carrying with it the Wilson Cup. Moreover, he participated in other blue ribbon awards. "Jolly" is one of nine Clydesdales owned by the Goebel Brewing Company of Detroit, this stable also winning first, second and fourth swards for pairs, and award in the four-l.crse hitch 1 first at the Slate Fair. These prize­ winning Clydesdales now are being exhibited in various cities. Each weighs around 1,000 pounds and due to their huge size and uniform markings they are attracting un­ usual attention. An unusual opportunity for city residents to renew their contact with daily farm life and for farm folks to learn more about the latest developments in mechanical farm equipment is afforded all visitors to the Great Lakes Exposition ip- Cleveland at the Firestone Inhibit. A typical American farm, com­ plete to the minutest detail with waving fields of grain in the dis­ tance, barn, house, implement shed, real live cows, horses, goats, turkeys, chickens, ducks, and col­ lie dog has been transported into the very center of Cleveland’s gigantic lake front show. Every piece of farm equipment includ­ ing implements and vehicles of the most up to -date design for efficiency and economy in farm operations are equipped with Firestone Ground Grip Farm Tires. It is a convincing dem­ onstration of how Harvey S. Firestone has put the farm on rubber. Many of the vehicles are from Mr. Firestone’s owr farm in Columbiana, Ohid, where he conceived the idea and personally aided in developing the Ground Grip Tire for economy in modern farm operations. The Firestone Exposition farm is run by a real farmer who has been operating a farm moat of his life near Amherst. Ohio. He is on hand to see that the cows are milked, the chickens fed and the eggs gathered. Hundreds of thousands have visited this exhibit and pro­ nounced it the most interesting •nd attractive display at the great Cleveland fair. Located as it is at the end of where a cooling breeze is always evident the Firestone Exhibit is rapidly becoming known as the coolest spot on the Exposition grounds.

It is that which binds or unites the lives of individuals into homes, cities, states, and nations, and . weaves these groups into the great panorama of civilization. Without it there could be no mutual effort, no cooperative enterprise, no organisation; life would be purely an individual scramble, and chaos would rule supreme." What is a friend? I will tell you. It is a person with whom you dare to be yourself. Your soul can go naked with him. He seems to ask you to put on nothing, only to be what you are. He does not want you to be bet­ ter or worse. When you are with him you feef as a prisoner feels who has been declared innocent You do not have th be on your guard. You can say what you think as long as it is genuinely you. He understands those contradic­ tions in your nature that lead others to misjudge you. With him you breathe freely. You take off your coat and loosen your collar. You can avow little vanities and envies and hatee and vicious sparks, your meannesses and absurdities, and in opening them up to him they are lost, dissolved on the white ocean of his loyalty. He understands. You do not have to be careful. You can abuse him— neglect him—tolerate him. He likes you.- He is like fire that purges all you- do. He is like water that cleanses all you say. He is like wine that warms you to the bone. You can weep with him, laugh with him. sin with him, pray with him. Through and underneath it all he sees knows and loves you.

The United States has had consid­ erable experience with waterways— though most of them, luckily for the taxpayers, are much less ambitious, projects than- the St. Lawrence sea­ way. It has been almost always true that such waterways have been sub­ sidized heavily by the taxpayers, have sustained great operating losses, have diverted traffic from other agen­ cies of transport, and have benefited the few at the expense of the many. Economically .they nave proven them­ selves about 100 per cent unsound. Proponents of the St Lawrence sea­ way are again in action, and a bill authorizing its construction will come up again in the next Congress. A Profitable Christ Jesus, the Way­ Transaction. Shower, exhorted his disciples thus (Luke 12:3v), "Sell that ye have, and give alms provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not" Every appeal of the Way-shower was that men should appraise those values which, although not manifest on the surface, appeal to their higher selves. His teachings and so-called miracles daily proved that spiritual things are true, while the material is not true. And on this basis he con­ stantly demonstrated the reality of good showing the gain that from the human viewpoint might seejn loss, and also the fullness and truth of life that can never be attained through death. Mortal mind is ever anxious to se­ cure something of a material charac­ ter. "Bargain" is a word frequently in use. Yet Christ Jesus appealed to men to sell what they had; that is. to part with their present material be­ liefs, so that they might find spirit­ ual understanding. He taught them to change their thinking; to leave the material viewpoint for spiritual bles­ sedness. Men often rebel at the change of thought required to demon­ strate the efficacy of spiritual living. Yet to subdue the human will and for­ sake the cherished things of which they consider themselves the posses­ sors, is the way by which immeasur­ able reward may be demonstrated, for it is the spiritual path of meek­ ness and lowliness of heart. A willingness to part with the pre­ conceived beliefs of materiality is the preparation of which Mary Baker Ed­ dy speaks when she says in "Miscel­ laneous Writings" (p. 1). "Humility is the stepping-stone to a higher re­ cognition of Deity. The mounting sense gathers fresh forms and strange fire from the ashes of dis­ solving self, and drops the world." The constant, if unspoken question of mortals is. If I sell what I have and seek the spiritual, will it be a profit­ able transaction? The Way-shower's reply, stripped of Eastern metaphor, is clear. In the speech of today it might be interpreted: Part wits your material beliefs. Give, rather than be striving to get. Provide an invest­ ment unfailing and harmonious, by following the high behest of your true selfhood, for thus only can the Incor­ ruptible, the spiritual, be found. Having mentally acknowledged the rightness of the Way-shower's call, we see that to "sell" merely material possessions would be but to deal with the figure instead of the thing figur­ ed. Progress consists in our mental selling — surrendering — of the be­ liefs of life, truth, or intelligence as resident in matter, putting in their place the redeeming and healing truth, as stated by Mrs. Eddy on page 468 of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," that "all is Infinite Mind and its infinite manifestation," and accepting the further statement: "Spirit is God, and man is His image and likeness. Therefore man is not material; he is spritual." This is the essential “wine and milk without money and without price" which Isaiah (55:1) exhorted his peo­ ple to purchase that their soul—their spiritual sense — might live. But when, today, as in the prophet's day. thought is so much occupied with the material and corruptible, there is lit­ tle room for the spiritual. In the quest for this profitable tansaetion man's true nature os the image and likeness of God is unfold­ ed. The real man cannot fall. He can­ not be subject to the corruptible, since he is ever the idea of infinite Mind. Being spiritual and not mater­ ial. his possessions are the divine qualities of truth, purity, joy. love, gratitude, values far beyond mortal sense. As these come into our con­ sciousness they cast out the false and unreal, and reveal the kingdom of heaven within. How profitable, then, is the transaction which provides an increase of spiritual and eternal wealth instead of resulting in the dis­ appointments of time and sense!

Many Michigan high schools will again resume their activity in speech work ar.d\hc state-wide contests in debate sponsored by the Michigan High School Forensic association each year. Judging from the many en­ rollments already pouring into the as­ sociation’s office, a record for mem­ bership may be set this season. Some Michigan high schools, not heretofore enrolled, have expressed their Inten­ tion of participating Ln the organiza­ tion's speech activities for the first time this year. The increased enrollment during the last few years is Indicative of the ev­ er-increasing interest in public speak­ ing training in the schools and the great benefits it affords for later busi­ ness and professional life. Much interest has been aroused in the question chosen for all association debates this season. It is one which has been argued much and often dur­ ing the last year. It concerns gov­ ernmental ownership an! operation of all electrical utilities. Material on the subject is being sent to all participat­ ing schools through the courtesy cf the Library Extension Service of the University of Michigan. The debates will be conducted in two series, with the first debate of a preliminary series on November 27. Following the preliminaries, an elimi­ nation serien will be conducted with the qualifyng schools in the prelimi­ naries participating. The elimination tilts wUI culminate on April 30, with the Twentieth Annual State Cham­ pionship Debate to be held In Hill Au­ ditorium. Ann Arbor, between the two remaining schools. Gold watches are presented to each contestant Ln thin contest. Debating the subject of •'Nationali­ zation of Munitions," last year Kala­ mazoo Central high school defeated Plymouth high school in the State Champinwhip Debate before an audi­ ence of nearly 5,000 people.

WHEN IS A "KITTY” NOT A "KITTY” AT ALL? Tastes and habits change quite rap­ idly these days, and this was recently illustrated in the experience of a pop­ ular girl here, who is making her home with relatives in the vicinity. The family has a cat, which the aunt usually admitted in the morning and which usually crawled into the niece's bed for a little petting. But there are kitties and kitties, and there are ani­ mals that look like kitties — and it was one of the latter that gained ad­ mission one morning, and after it had reached the scene the second floor auntie was hastily called, and kitty was put right out the window. Work it out for yourself, but we are men­ tioning no name. YIRGINH COLE HAD NATAL DAY PARTY In celebration of the 16th birthday of Virginia Cole, there was a family gathering at L. G. Cole's Sunday.

Barry county farm operators and owners are entering into the Federal Soil Conseving program according to Harold J. Foster. County Agricultural Agent. Last spring local committee­ men took work sheets covering 3754 farms In Barry county. To date 1961 of these farm ow^rs have applied to Mr. Foster’s office for measurement of their farms upon which payment will later be made. Every farmer In Barry county should have received a letter setting forth the soil depleting 1935 crops for his farm. This is the depleting base for the farm on which the 1936 pay­ ment will be based. Farmers should compare their 1936 soil depleting crops against this figure and apply for measurement and* payment if they have fewer soU depleting acres in 1936. being made for Payments spreading of lime and marl on the idrm, the seeding of clovers and alfal­ fa, the plowing down of soil building crops and other recommended prac­ tices. Even though 1961 farmers have applied to date there are many more farms in Barry county eligible to draw payment if the operator should apply for jneaauremenL Date for ap­ pealing the farm base is past but re­ quests for measurement will be re­ ceived by the County Agricultural Agent's office for at least two weeks yet. Fanners who have not yet applied for measurement should do so now or make certain that they would not have any payment coming should their farm be measured. In order to balance accounts wfthxthe federal tax to finance this program, every Barry county farm eligible for payment should apply and bring the money in­ to Barry county. Tallent Radio Tower.

World’s Pur- In a recent issue of the Milk. March of Time news reel the thirty-year old fight of scientists to keep milk free from bacteria is graphically drama­ tized. The story goes back to 1892, when a typhoid epidemic in Springfield, Massachusetts, started open warfare on impure milk. Today properly han­ dled and distributed milk is among • the cleanest and safest of all food products. Such organizations as the Dairy­ men's League Cooperative association of New York have joined wholeheart­ edly in the campaign for absolutely pure milk They have educated their members os proper production meth­ ods, have worked with authorities in drawing up sound sanitary regula­ tions. and have favored movements to effect the greatest cleanliness in handling the fluid. This has been of immeasurable value to the nation's health. The pub­ lic is everlastingly indebted to the men who have given the United States pure milk. Learning New York City's plan to Manners- teach “table manners" in its public schools sounds good. The need for proper table man­ ners is not open to much debate. But the matter of teaching them in the public schools might be. Many will argue that time devoted to learning proper handling of knife and fork ■ would be taken away from the study of Caesar tn the original LAtin, and • therefore would be wasted. ' This argument can never be well answered, because the argument is endless. Advocate** of each branch of learning—dead languages, modem languages, mathematics, history, Eng­ lish—ail would regard “table manners hour’’ as time distinctly stolen from their individual departments. To an­ swer al on the basis of the physical, as well as cultural, need for instruc­ tion in table manners would take too much time, and probably would not quiet the clamor anyway.

What Mr. Hoover says is that res­ pect for law must be laid down in the home. Tbe attitude and the conduct of parents have mainly to do with development of law-obedience ,or its opposite. The statement makes sense even if it does not make thrilling entertain­ ment-even if the suggested specta­ cle of an orderly, genteel, well disci­ plined home is not as gripping as the thought of gun-men and G-men shoot­ ing it out on a promlent street corner. In the countries where the govern­ ment is boss and the citizen is ser­ vant of the boss, it may not require home training to make law-obed­ ience. There, the citizen is registered and finger-printed, and the law regu­ lates all his conduct As a matter of fact, when this re­ markable new arrangement of the so­ cial security act comes into opera­ tion with its provision that every worker be numbered and tagged at Washington and all his earnings and all his goings and comings be docket­ ed and pigeon-holed In the records there, by an army of employes hired to look after him—when this be­ comes effective as it will on the first of January, we may be well on our way to a finger-printed and govern­ ment-herded citizcncy which can be mwle to obey orders without neces­ sarily respecting the orders. But in a free country, such as this has been, law-obedience aiises out of respect for law and recognition of a citizen's obligation and privilege. This government is built. In fact, upon the home—and the character of the home, by and large, reflects the character of the government Perhaps that fact furnishes some explanation as to what’s happesed to government Mr. Hoovef, efficient head of the G-men, is right Not six-shooters, but decent home­ standards and home insistence upon respect of authority and of "man­ ners," will win the war again crime. In his recent speech in Philadelphia, Senator Ar­ thur H. Vandenberg of Michigan selected the newly drawn constitution of the Philippine Com­ monwealth which was granted that Commonwealth by President Roose­ velt as indicative of what the presi­ dent believes would constitute an ideal form of government And let it be remembered that this constitution was drawn and granted during the tenure as governor general of the Philippines of Frank Murphy, who now seeks to be governor of Mich­ igan. By their records in this partic­ ular, we have a rigtit to judge of their By Their Records. Let us look, as Senator Vandenberg did, at a few of the provisions of that Philippine constitution. It grants the right of the president of the Philippine Commonwealth to suspend the writ of habeas corpus which is the last resort to individual Uberties. Our Constitution expressly prohibits this except In time of “re­ bellion or invasion.’' Tbe president of the Philippines may be impeachd only for "culpable” violation of the Constitution. A viola­ tion now and then doesn't count. The president of the Philippines is permitted to certify ‘t'bat immediate enactment of legislation la a neces­ sity" and in order to put through in a hurry this “must" legislation, can fork would be wasteful. But it is still suspend the constitutional require­ true that correct table habits make ments of regular enactment of iegisfor careful eating. And, judging by the number of stomach sedatives and “must" legislation in the United Indigestion aids now on the market. Stat®; Ln the last four years. The president of the Philippine commonwealth "shall exercise gener­ ta«. al supervision of all kcal govern­ priate place to learn things that ments." That has been the trend of the New Deal legislation in the Unit­ , make for health as well as culture. ed States with efforts still further to centralize authority in the executive. J. Mgar Hoover Philippines "shall regulate the rela­ tions between capital and labor in in­ dustry and agriculture" and the “state may provide for compulsory arbitra­ tion.” Thus does the Philippine gov­ ernment take over control of all the affairs of its people. Under the new Philippine consti­ tution “all' educational institutions shall be subject to regulation by tbe federal state.” The Philippine "federal state may establish and operate industries in the name of the national welfare." In the Philippines no law may be declared unconstitutional without the concurrence of two-thirds of the Su­ preme court. Every one of those conditions set up in the Philippine constitution and approved by the then governor gener­ al, Frank Murphy, and President Roosevelt are contrary to every prin­ ciple of American government. They are things which the New Deal has been aiming at for nearly four years. They trend toward placing in the hands of Washington and in the hands of the chief executive of the nation all power over all our lives and activ­ ities.

Can we describe such better than did the Apostle .Tames, who said (James 3.15), “This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual .devilish." He also said (1:26), "If any man among you seem co be religious, and bridleth not his tongue . . . this man's reli­ gion Lt vain;" and again (3:2), "If any man offend not in word, the same La a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body." The spoken Word, good or evil, is of but the outward expression thought Then, in order to bridle the tongue one must first bridle his thoughts. But how con one control his thoughts? Many car. testify to earnest but futile attempts to master thoughts of hatred, resentment, and so on. On the other hand, many, per­ haps, as did the writer, have believed that it Really made little difference what one thought, so long as’ evil thoughts were not expressed in word or deed. Not comprehending the true significance of the words of the book of Proverbs (23-7). "As he thlnketh in his heart, so is he," she had long harbored thoughts of resentment, and fear of everything, little realizing that such thoughts were directly respon­ sible for the sickly, miserable state in which she found herself before she turned to Christian Science ana be­ gan to learn to think rightly. Whether or not one comprehends the mental nature of existence, the fact remains that one's real being as the expression of God. Mind, is divine­ ly mental. Likewise, what appears to be the mortal counterfeit is men­ tal. To the materialist,, who believes in matter's reality, the latter state­ ment may seem untrue, simply be­ cause he does not comprehend that the body is but an objectified mental con­ cept,' Christian Science has rendered an invaluable service to mankind In re­ vealing the allness of Mind, God, and man’s true being as the perfect ex­ pression of this one all-righteous Mind, and the consequent unreality of mortal mentality. Mortal mind claims that each person has a mind of his own, limited in every charac­ teristic. Little wonder, then, that mortals find occasion to disagree, criticize .and condemn one another, and that these tendencies have been accentuated throughout succeeding It is only by knowing generations. man's true being as the expression of the one perfect Mind that one can be­ gin to dinown mental qualities and conditions that emanate not from the one Mind. In the first place, it is necessary to be willing to rid oneself of sick and e,fll thinking, and to do this is not impossible when one turns to the truth of being. One student, who had been afflict­ ed with a quick and violent temper, and an unwillingness to be charitable with the shortcomings of others, set about to overcome these traits with the help of Christian Science. Al­ though this was not accomplished in transformation was gradually attain­ ed; and so completely that some years later, when she was coping with an annoying experience of injustice, one who had not known her with her ear­ lier traits of disposition remarked. “I regulationa to earn* cut any dedar- never knew one could have so sweet preme Court declared it unconstitu- thought, and divine ideas come to his EmCCTIVE DATE OF CONSTI­ TUTIONAL AMENDMENTS Three of the four proposed amend­ ments to the state constitution will, if approved by a majority of the vot- FhyMcii Ssrgw E.

But only as one holds to these true ideas and denies the legitimacy of mortal thoughts will one truly establish righteous thinking tn his consciousness and thus reap the benefits in better health, morals, and happiness. As the Apostle Paul admonished his brethren, so must we think on "whatsoever things are true, . , . honest. . . . just, . . . pure, ... lovely, ... of good report”’* (Phllippians 4:8), for these thoughts come from the divine Mind. Mary Bake: Eddy has stated in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures” (p. 248): “We must first turn our gaze in the right direction, and then walk that way. We must form perfect models in thought and look at them continually, or we shall never carve them out in grand and Hess, mercy, justice, health, holmess. love—the kingdom of heaven—reign within us. and sin, disease, and death will diminish until they finally disap­ pear." Truly, as a mail "thlnketh . . . so is be;" as he bridleth his thoughts so will he “offend not in word," and be "able also to bridle the whole body." Health, happiness, and true contentment will be the reward of him who has learned to think rightly, and he will be loved even as be loves. —Christian Science Monitor.

That is, don't part with your money until you investigate. That is the advice of Lieut Van A. Loomis of the detective bureau of the Michigan State Police, who has been directing a search in a dozen counties for racketeers who are making phony accident telegrams pay. The trick, according to Lieutenant Loomis, is to obtain the name of a relative of a person with money. Lat­ er, this person will receive a wire signed with the relative's name, stat­ ing the signer has been in an automo­ bile accident and requesting ten, twenty-five or fifty dollars at once. In nine cases out of ten, the appar­ ent urgency of the request from some one dear results in prompt dispatch of the money. The racketeer appears at the distant telegraph office with forg­ ed credentials, collects and movee on. A telephone call to the usual ad­ dress of the "accident victim" in such cases would avert loss. Establishing the request as a fraud, a tip-off to lo­ cal or state police may result in ap­ prehension of the perpetrator.

The Chaumont makes regular trips from the East Coast. U. S., to China, and at times varies this for side trips. Each trip is about 40.000 miles. Tbe cruising record for the ship since Grant came aboard shows the ship has traveled over 793,000 miles (nautical), which, combined with toe three years Grant served aboard other vessels, makes his travels an approximate million land miles.

The Welcome Philathea class’ 10th anniversary banquet held a» the Com­ munity House last Friday night was a delightful one in every way. attend­ ed by 65 Philatheas and their guests. The supper was a delicious planned potluck affair. The menu consisted of tomato cocktail and wafers, escalloped potatoes, meat bolls, rolls, creamed squash, cabbage salad, pickles, apple pie, home made ice cream, and coffee. It was served by the young daughters of the Philathea class members, dress­ ed in white. The tables were lovely, trimmed with Philathea colors, light blue and white, in crepe paper and candles, also garden flowers. The march into the dining room was to the music played by Mrs. Kent Nelson of Lansing, and the doxology was sung. After the supper, Mrs. Evelyn Dean led the group in community singing, and then introduced the toastmaster, Mrs. Agnes Lofdahl. who was very capable and pleasing in this role. She called on Mrs. Estella Graham, of the class, to welcome-us, follow: "Past mem­ pastors and friends: Philathea class, I this evenwish our 10th anniversary. In behalf of the class and, our pastor, our heartiest greetings are yours." Mrs. Wm. Gibson, the first teacher of the class, made the response and expressed her pleasure at having this opportunity. She spoke of the perfec­ tion of the patterns used in architec­ tural construction and compared that same need of perfeclon in thc^pattem for our lives. Two vocal solos were sweetly sung by Mrs. Evelyn Dean, "The Old Re­ frain." by Kreisler, and "Try Smiling" by Rogers. She was accompanied by Mrs. Nelson. Mrs. L. Maude Evans, who it is thought has attended more of the meetings than any other member, gave the class history printed at the close of this article. A very pleasing duet, "Our Yester­ days," was sung by Mrs. Dean and Mrs. Sackett. Rev. J. R. Wooton gave a very help­ ful short talk. Seriousness and hu­ mor blended just right for the occa­ sion. He urged us not to live on our past laurels, but to make the next ten years even better. Next was presented a 25-minute one act comedy by Grace Lee Gaffney, called “Sophie from Sandysvilie." The following were the cast of characters: Miss Ethel Adelbert, a wealthy middle aged woman. Mrs. Virginia Higdon; Bonnie McFarland, aged 20, her niece, also her despair, Mrs. Dorothy Yarger; Larry Lemmond, aged 25, a neighbor in love with Bonnie, Hinman Sackett; James Martin, chauffeur, wears mustache and middle age make­ up.

Feldpausch Food Cen­ ter of Hastings, a moot attractive and up to date self-serve food store, held itr grand opening on Friday and Sat­ urday, with a very large patronage, culminating Saturday night In the award of 10 baskets of groceries with the store filled and a large crowd on the outside for this feature. The Feldpauschs selected the Bux­ ton block, the Main street part of which had been occupied by the John Appelmans .grocers, since they moved from the comer across, now occupied by Wm. Miller's Hi-Speed gas sta­ tion, until their . recent retirement from the business. Remodeling included increasing the floor space by removal and moving of partitions, redecorating, rewiring elec­ trically for lighting, and cooling, and introduction of more shelving, and making over of counters and installa­ tion of new fixtures for a meat de­ partment and the stock. The rear part, vacated by B. F. Seward, and originally the Buxton machine shop, became in part storage space, and part of it is utilized otherwise by the Feldpauschs. The store will be heat­ ed with natural gas. Wm. Thomas, who has been at the Hastings Food Center since it was op­ ened, is manager of the Nashville store, and will move here and occupy the house west of Mrs. Sam Mar­ shall's. Maurice Purchis is an assist­ ant in 'the grocery department, and there will be two in the meat depart­ ment, Kenneth Goggins and another, as the regular force, with Billy Hec­ ker an after school assistant in the store.

QUILT OF 8181 SQUARES Hills And Curve* Are To He Sanded, -And Trunkline* A* Much Aw PotniMe. ■ Special safety measures to be in­ cluded Ln the winter highway main­ tenance program were announced tills week by the state highway depart­ ment. State Highway Commissioner Mur­ ray D. VanWagoner said that metal containers filled with sand would be placed at hills and curves on trunk­ line highways for emergency use by truck drivers and other motorists. He will ask assistant district engin­ eer in the field to indicate the number required in each county. He estimated that the number of containers would exceed 800. "Our regular winter maintenance program calls for applying sand on all sections of the highways during slip­ pery weather,” said Commissioner VanWagoner. “We can not; however, apply sand over the whole trunkline system at once, and emergencies are bound to arise. This will be especial­ ly true of trucks which travel almost constantly and <5ccaslonally are caught in an ice storm. “By assisting truckers to keep their vehicles in motion we are making the roatls safer for all types of traffic. Of course these same facilities will be available for other motorists who need them.” The containers to be used are 50gallon metal drums. Maintenance dews will check the containers to keep them well stocked with sand. Calcium chloride will be mixed with the sand to keep it from freezing and to make it stick to the ice. The con­ tainer will be painted the standard orange color used on all highway equipmen. Village Pays For Water Equipment Also Decides To Heat Water Plant With Gas. Will »Arte To Hal­ lowe'en ^Xent. Paying for the municipal water pumping equipment and current bills, deciding on using natural gas for heating the new water plant, and not to exceed $15.00 for the Hallowe’en entertainment, were some of the things accomplished by the Village Council at Monday night's regular and the adjourned meeting of Tues­ day night. gram At New School Auditorium Here, Next Monday Night. Rounds Out Half Century Of Splen­ didly Efficient Financial Service It would be very difficult for moot of our readers to visualize what Hast­ ings was like fifty years ago on the 26th day of October, when u. charter was granted to the Hastings City Bank which then started in business here. The population of the city at that time was substantially 3,000. The Michigan Central railroad was com­ pleted to Hastings from Jackson in 1869, The C. K. A S. had recently been constructed to this city from Kal­ amazoo. At that time the latter rood was owned Independently. Its owners hoped to dispose of it either to the Grand Trunk or the Pere Marquette system, so as to give Hastings rail­ road competition, which was then very important, as a one railroad town paid very high freight rates. That effort failed and the New Ybrk Central a few years ago bought the C. K. &S. The Interstate Commerce Commission many years ago ended freight rale slashing, which stopped competition in freight and passenger rates. There were no paved streets here fifty years ago—no telephones, no radios. 'Through the two railroad lines, Hastings did have the benefit of daily papers from Grand Rapids and Detroit, but that was not much bene­ fit compared with what was expected from having two railroad lines. The citizens of Hastings had raised con­ siderable sums to secure the C. K. A S. and later for it extension to Wood­ land and Woodbury. They had done this with the hope that, with better railroad facilities, factories would be Had Been Resident Of North Dakota induced to locate here. At that time For Some Years.

MACHINES CAN TAKE MICHIGAN’S BALLOT Not to exceed nine political parties will face Michigan’s voters, on ballots or voting machlnea, Nov. 3, Depart­ ment of State records show. Of' interest in this connection is the fact that the modern sytle voting ma­ chine will not accommodate more than nine parties, without the ma­ chine adjustment by factory representativee. City clerks, is cities where voting machines are used, were con­ cerned over the one-time possibility that paper ballots might have to be resorted to throughout the state. Fif­ teen parties originally filed their vig­ nettes with Orville E. Atwood, Secre­ tary of State. No voting machine could accommodate them all. Ten parties will face Wayne county voters as the candidates of one party will be confined to Wayne county races. Paper ballots are used in that county, however. The order in which ftolltlcal parties are arranged on the ballot, is, under state law, determined by the number of votes cast for the several party candidates for Lieutenant Governor at the last preceding geifferal election. The nine parties certified to the bal­ lot by the Department of State, In the order In which they will appear on the ballot, follows: Republican, Dem­ ocratic, Socialist, Communist, Far­ mer-Labor. Socialist Labor, Common­ wealth, American and The Third Par­ ty. • Six parties of the original fifteen will not be represented for a variety of reasons. No candidates’ names were filed for the ePople's Progres­ sive, National, Proletarian, or Liberty parties. The candidates of the Pro­ gressive party withdrew. The slate of the United party was not accepted because of its failure to conform with state election law requirements.

Founded in the early days of Barry County's history and located in the county seat, this institution has continuously merited the confidence of the men entrusted with the responsi­ bility of making our community what it is today, and from time to time has been privileged to render some assistance in its growth. The intervening years from 1886 to 1936 have been filled abundantly not only with the activities normally confronting a young and rapidly growing community — such as wars, pe­ riods of unrest, economic depressions, etc., —- but it has been an era of great inventions changing completely the develop­ ment of the community. The introduction of railroads, gas, electricity, telephones, telegraph, and in recent years automo­ biles, airplanes and radios —- all accepted today as common­ place and necessities of life — at the time brought about great economic changes. It is interesting to note that the Hastings City Bank has the honor of being the oldest state bank in the State of Michigan operating under its original charter. The fact that this bank has continued down through the years, constantly rendering a broader service, is the strongest possible endorsement of the ideals laid down by its founders and passed on unchanged to their successors. As we stand on the threshold of our fiftieth anniversary, we look back with pride to that day when this bank was founded and look forward with confidence to the fnture.

Early Entry - ------In Big Live Stock Show Philathea,1 fill standing Cur motto, “We do things.” Our colors, light blue and white: blue for loyalty, white for purity.’ The word Philathea means "Lovers of truth." Our text. “I can do all things thro Christ which strengtheneth,” Phil. 4:13. It is impossible to tell how farreaching are the results of these high ideals which help in building better Christian character. Our membership has varied from 30 to 55 at a time, and the personnel of our class often changes. But the marks of growth are shown by the way we carry out our motto, "W’e do things.” Many of our class have helped faithfully in the music of the church, teaching other classes in the H. 8., and all have helped to raise funds for the church budget. Some of the girls have worked hard on bake sales, rummage sales, sup­ pers, etc., while others have given of their talents for minstrel shows and other money raising enterprises. Many of our old members have moved to other locations, and are there helping some other church. One very outstanding achievement is the remaking of the unused base­ ment rooms of the Community House. After gaining permission of the church to use that room for all our class meetings whenever we wanted it, a group of girls led by Pres. But­ ler and Secy. Calcy went to work with soap and water to make it a habit­ able place tn which to meet. Many things were donated by members of the class to make the room pleasant At first we used it all In one room, but later put in the parition, bought the heater, and oil stove, and the paint for the walls. But Rev. Hoyt and a group of good men of the church well earned the right to use this room also by their hard labor in putting the paint on the walls. Our piano was donated to us by George Thomas, in memory of his wife. How happy we were when we had a nice quiet roomy place all our own in which to meet, both for Sunday school class and monthly parties. But being true to our platform of standing by the Bible school and the church, this past year we offered the Junior department the use of our room on Sundays while we took their jmaller room on the east side .of the main church. Now most of the smaller group meetings of the church are held In the hilatbea room, and we wonder how the church went so many years with­ out this room, and I. for one, am glad to share our room, for we pass this way but once and we want to do all the good we can to all the people we can. Events which stand out on mem­ ory's wall are the trip to visit a Bat­ tle Creek Philathea class and other occasions when they met with us. al­ so a trip to Lansing when our whole class took husbands and potluck sup­ per to the home of Dora Nelson, where we had everything to eat ex­ cept dessert. On another occasion, four of us at­ tended an evening session of the state Philathea-Baraca convention at Al­ bion. when one of our group was as­ signed a small part on the program, and felt very humble standing- before that vast crowd and on the platform beside such a speaker as Rev. Savage of Pontiac, but we were glad to do our bit In October. 1930. on the 10th anni­ versary of the world wide Philathea movement. Rev. Francis preached a special sermon for our class, who at­ tended the service in a body. Natur­ ally we felt a little puffed with pride but it served to strengthen our pur­ pose to "do things,” although one Sunday near that time only one girl, Sue Penfold, was present for class, with no teacher. Our sick committee have done good work thru all the years, and every girl has done what she could and all have been working together happily throughout these ten years and more, and we will always cherish pleasant memories and, I fee! sure, live better lives through the efforts of those guid­ ing our class thru these years. Our past preachers, presidents and teachers served us in the following order: Rev. G. E. Wright, Rev. S. J. Fran­ cis, Rev. M. E. Hoyt. Presidents—Mra. Edith Kleinhans, Mrs. Laura Sackett.

From two Michigan counties, Al­ cona and Barry, came the first entries this year for the annual International Lire Block Exposition, largest of the continent's stock shows. The Exposition will celebrate its 37th anniversary Nov. 28 to Dec. 5. It will be held in the new amphithea­ ter at the Chicago Stock Yards. Mrs. Andrew E. Seaver, of Harris­ ville, has notified the management that she will send an exhibition flock of 12 purebred Hampshire sneep. Her entries won seven prizes in the con­ tests for this breed last year, includ­ ing the blue ribbon in the aged ram class. The Barry county entry consists of a pen of purebred Southdown lambs that will lie shown by'14 year old Mary Williams of Middleville • in the Junior Live Stock Feeding contest, a special competition for exhibitors be­ tween the ages of ten and twenty, which will take place on the opening Saturday. B. H. Heide, secretary manager of the International Live Stock Show, predicts that the 1936 Exposition will be one of the largest in the history of the show.

I described it quite complete­ ly in my other letter, so Tm, hoping it will be returned to me along with my diary, some time soon. Anyhow, I met a nice Scotchman and a charming young Englishman in Bruges. The latter swained me around, all over the town, and was in general very devoted. We drenk tea and cof­ fee in the cafes and even tried Belgian lemonade, which is quite the queerest of anything I’ve ever drunk. He was a very nice fellow, very English at course, very courteous and kind, and an excellent companion. I had a mix-up about the mark sit­ uation in Germany, and had to leave Bruges on Monday in order to get to Cologne that night I had fast trains, made fine connections, met some more nice people and had a swell time. I grew very brave about being olono, and it didn’t bother me a bit. It is perfectly amazing how kind and help­ ful people are. I got to Cologne qbout 7:30 Monday night and went to a first class hotel. My room had a bath, and did I revel in that! You-aee, it was the first I had had a whole enormous bathroom to myself, so I took the longest show­ er In the history of mankind. Ah, what luxury! There wasn’t an awful lot to see in Cologne except the Cathedral, which is magnificent. I enjoyed it, however, and particularly enjoyed the contrast between Germany and France. Ev­ erything in Germany is efficiency, or­ ganization and order. You just can’t miss it. Furthermore, you can actu­ ally get information in an information bureau, which is more than you can do-In France, Oh, I’ve had some wild experiences trying to get information. I would not have missed this trip for anything in the world. I’ve had some very trying experiences, but also many delightful ones; my chief bless­ ing being the opportunity of meeting all kinds of people. I certainly have­ n't had any difficulty in that direc­ tion. Everyone is extremely helpful and considerate. But to return to Germany. All the streets of Cologne were lined with swastika flags. There were literally hundreds of them and it looked like an extremely festive 4th of July, but it was just the normal course of ev­ ents. The Germans were all very kind and it was somewhat of a relief to be in a country where everything is so well ordered, and where you can depend on what people say. However, when you realize what is back of it, it is quite frightening too. In Bruges I went to a railroad sta­ tion for information about trains. Of course it was a rash thing on my part to assume that one could actually get information about trains at a railroad station!! Just an absurd notion at mine; remnant of our quaint Amer­ ican custom!! First, I approached the ticket window and asked about connections for Brussels. I was told gently but firmly to go to the next window and ask someone else. So I. being an obedient child, old so. But the man there was "too busy" to an­ swer my questions (Brussels is about an hours' run from Bruges and ho just couldn't be bothered at alb. Told me to come back next morning at nine.

OCT. », I«M Men Versus Mice To Aid Orchards Mice baiting is going to be a profit­ able game'and industry practiced in orchards this fall where the mice pop­ ulation again indicates possibilities o£ excessive winter damage from rid­ ding and girdling. A campaign to educate tree owners in baiting rodents is to be conducted in the principal fruit producing sections of the state this fall by H. D. Hootman and T. A Merrill, extension horticulturists of Michigan State college Danger from underground injury con be lessened by removing the soil from the trunk of the tree to a dis­ tance of eight to ten inches and to a depth of six to eight inches, filling in with coarse cinders and then working fine soil Into the cinders. The use of wire netting, veneer and paper collars to a height of 18 inches and cleaning out nearby weeds and growth aid in preventing Injury. "All of these methods have proved relatively effective," say Hootman and Merrill, but it usually pays to actual­ ly reduce the infestation or popula­ tion of mice. Baiting is done in sta­ tion, such as a crimped tn can, rolled paper, piece of tile to which mice have access but which do, not permit pets or livstock to get the bait The ta­ blespoon of poison bait is put in the station near at least every other tree in an orchard and covered lightly with grass, straw or weeds. Rebaiting once or twice in winter and even in early spring are adpised where the mice are numerous. ■ —Eaton Rapids lost its dean of merchants, with the passing of Her­ bert L.

Treas.—Mildred G. Mater THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 5,1936 Overestimating conditlons essential to a hap­ py effective life is one of the prime causes of the sense of fail­ ure. It takes much less to make one happy than you imagine. Some veri­ fier has put it thus: If there's no sun, I still may have the moon; . If there’s no moon, the stars my needs suffice. If starless, there's my trusty evening lamp; Or lampleas, then my little tallow dip. And if that fails, I still may seek my couch, And sleep and dream there’s light Man Needs But Little, What this philosopher-poet is say­ ing is simply that, if life deprives of this, and bars us cut of that, and for­ ces us to one new arrangement after another, there are still all the mater­ ials of a rich and happy life about us, if we will only think. Life in the average village is some­ thing the big city sophisticates des­ pise. Yet in every village are people who have accepted their place, and have turned to the cultivation of in­ terests and affections right where they were, and have found peace. We all know men and women who have been denied financial success and independence, but who plumbed the depths of mind and spirit, and have gained a wealth which money cannot* give, nor poverty take away. No. don’t overestimate the condi­ tions essential to successful and hap­ py living. It take much less than one supposes to make a life. Remem ber what the late W. K. Vanderbilt once said; he who had everything— “My life was never distlned to be happy; I had nothing to seek for nor strive after." — Jamestown, N. Y., Post America Lights To read statements The Way. of promoters of po­ litical electric pow­ er projects, one might easily believe that the United States lags far be­ hind other countries in the quality of electric service. It is therefore inter­ esting to read an opinion from such a disinterested observer as Dean Eric V. Allen of the University of Oregon School of Journalism. He has been traveling in Europe, especially Ger­ many. In a recent letter appearing in the Oregon Publisher, he has this "I am sitting here in not too good a light alternately gazing across the Spree under my window at the Pergamonseum on the other bank........... "I never realized until this year what an abundant flood of wonderful electric light every American lives in. Here we find the little bulbs that save the current and they are generally hung too close to the celling. "It is not because the hotel rates are low; the Kaiser's palace just across the street is the same way. . . . It would tak” an awful lot of crystal in the chandeliers to make up for low candlepower." This is not peculiar to Germany. In most European countries electric de­ velopment has either been carried on by the government, or by private groups under hamstringing govern­ ment control that took all the initia­ tive out of them—that was not inter­ ested in extending use of electricity.. In this country, electric development has been almost entirely carried on by private utilities that had to sell current to exist and grow. Is it possible that some of our poli­ ticians are wrong in their desire to Europeanize the electric industry of the United States? It is possible that private enterprise, reasonably regulated by the states, gives better and cheaper service than a group of bureaucrats interested primarily in hanging on to their jobs and advanc­ ing their own political fortunes? Maybe after all there is something The Hobby So many serious Habit. thoughts and activities fill the busy days and nights that it is the most pleasant di­ version to slip them aside for brief moments and relax with a hobby. People have the most varied assort­ ment of hobbies which they love. You. perhaps, find contentment with a pa­ lette and a few brushes with which to try your skill in picturing nature’s beauty. A Detroit woman has a shoe collection of great interest and her friends enjoy searching into strange places for old, curious and famous fillocs, so that one person'^ hobby in­ cludes others in the thrill of collec­ tion. You know men who love to fashion delicate and craftsmanlike pieces— such as ship models, old clocks and musical instruments. Others display with pride a collection of old guns. Indian relics, birds and bird lore. Frank O. Lowden of Illinois, who loved to walk in forests of evergreens, developed an extensive planting of coniferous trees on his own farm, and now has a fine example of practical forestry. If you haven't a hobby, find one, stay with it and develop it; for out of hobbies have grown some of the finest organizations and most philanthropic movements in the world. Sir BadenPowell dreamed the Boy Scout move­ ment into a world-wide organization. The cost of govem53 Taxes On Loaf Of Bread, ment, according to the best estimates, takes more than 20 per cent of the national income. In other words, if we work five weeks, the proceeds of only four weeks* work is retained by us. The money paid us for the other week goes to government. Only a small part of this money is taken from us in direct taxes. The greater part filters its way into gov­ ernment coffers through "hidden’’ or indirect taxes. It is a major item in the coat of living. Bread provides an excellent exam­ ple erf this. No commodity is more necessary. Yet each loaf of bread you buy represents 53 different taxes paid. Some of these taxes are paid by the farmer, some by the flour mill, some by the bakery. Every one of them has added to the cost of that loaf of bread. During the past three years the Am­ erican people have paid $100,000,000 more for bread than they would have paid had its price stayed constant Taxation was not the sole cause of the rise—but it was a potent influ- What is true of bread, is true of meat, shoes, automobiles, furniture— anything and everything you use. Think of taxation in this way—as a thing that hits you directly in the pocketbook whenever you spend a nickel—and you’ll realize what a re­ duction in the cost of government would mean to every person in the United States.—I. N. R. Standing Up Ever bear somebody Under Tension. sigh, "The strain is just too much for Without question it is often the cry of a heart in genuine distress under burdens that seem beyond en­ durance. Among inanimate things probably no structure has to stand greater or more prolonged stress and tension than a suspension bridge. In this connection there is Interest in an an­ nouncement of plans for remodel­ ing, almost rebuilding, the widely known Brooklyn bridge, first of the span? across New York’s East river. According to F. J. H. Kracke, com­ missioner of plant and structures, the floors and practically everything about he bridge are to be replaced except the towers, the suspension cables and built up from tiny strands of the strongest steel twisted and twisted to­ gether until the whole mass is as thick or thicker than a man's body. Since the completion of the Brooklyn bridge, five other* of longer suspension span have been erected in the United States and two more, the Gol­ den Gate and the San Francisco-Oak­ land bridge, are being built, the for­ mer more than two and a half times as long as the span to which John Roebling gave his genius. If anyone supposes that existence is alway the same, a mere humdrum monotony., to one of these cables let him be reminded that when the sum­ mer sun beats fiercely hot and after­ noon traffic is at its weightiest the ca­ bles of the mighty George Washing­ ton bridge over the Hudson at New York are stretched and expanded so that the center of the span is eight feet lower thon normal. Under zero temperatures and with no load the contraction draws it four feet above normal. It is true that such cables are de­ signed to have a tensile strength many times greater than they will ever be called upon to carry. But likewise true is it that man has been endowed by his Maker with a greater strength, a more enduring resiliency, a higher capacity for accomplishment in spite of stress than mortals commonly sup­ pose. Care has to be taken to keep the corrosive weakening influences of worry, distrust, ingratitude and men­ tal dishonesty from working into the strands of human character. Even tnen the loads may sometimes seem more than the structure was designed to carry. But “underneath are the everlasting arms.”—Christian Science Monitor.

At any rate it definitely places the tour 1st business near the top of the list of indusries in Michigan. Three factors have been responsi­ ble, in a large measure, for the crea­ tion of this important business. First, our state’s climatic and scenic re sources; second, the consistent adver­ tising program of Michigan as a Va­ cation Lind, and in this our company has made no small contribution; third, our treatment of tourists. Naturally and rightfully our state has profited financially from the tour­ ist trade, but we have given value for value received. As long as we continue to preserve our natural resources, continue to ad­ vertise our vacation advantages, and continue to treat our guests with the utmost of consideration and fairness, we may expect to enjoy the fruits of the business. Our company believes ir this policy and will continue to ad­ here to it just as strongly as we be­ lieve that Michigan is the ideal Vaca­ tion Land,—Mich. Bell. We once knew a man who was too stingy to take the newspaper in his home town and always sent over to borrow the neighbor’s paper. One evening he sent his son over to borrow the paper, and while his son was on his way he ran into a large swarm of bees and in a few minutes his face looked like a summer squash. Hearing the agonized cries of his son. the father ran to his assistance, and in doing so ran into a barbed wire fence, cutting a handful of flesh from his anatomy and ruining a $4 pair of pants. The old cow took advantage of the hole in the fence, got into the corn field and killed herself eating green corn. Hearing the racket, the far­ mer’s wife ran out of the house, up­ setting a four-gal Ion churn full of cream into a basket of kittens and killed the whole flock. She slipped on the cream and fell downstairs, break­ ing her leg and a $19 set of false teeth. The baby, left alone, - crawled through the cream into the parlor and ruined a $40 carpet. During the ex­ citement. the daughter eloped with the hired man afid took all the fam­ ily's savings with ber. The moral is that every man should be a subscriber to his home paper.— Take The Home Paper, : Court House New* t Frobatc Court E»t. Robert T. Martin. Proof of will filed. Eat Alice M. Coolbaugh.

PRICES BATTLE CREEK ENTIRE WEEK STARTING SUNDAY, NOV. 8TH^m BIRTHS DECREASE AFTER 1935 RISE SMASH STAGE REVUE Mr. Stork must have flapped his wings with joy when he gazed upon Michigan’s rising birth rate as reveal­ ed by the 1935 statistical report of the Michigan Department of Health which has just gone to the printer. It was an unusual record at that, for only nine states were able to show any kind of an increase, and it was encouraging for the hope that the long period of falling birth rates had at last run its course. An increase of 3,459 births indicated that the threat of an ultimately declining population had been temporarily averted. But statistics to-Sept 1 of this year give the lie to these hopes. Already there has been a two per cent de­ crease in births cong>ared with last year and the state is running 1,271 behind last year’s total of 59,816 births at this date. It now appears that the 1935 total of 87,403 births with a rate of 17.21 per 100,000 popu­ lation will not be reached this year. Michigan’s total births have never quite reached 100,000. but they came very close to that figure during the record year of 1927 when 99.940 births were registered with a rate of 22.26.

The National Reemployment Ser­ vice in Michigan received an order from the Ifidiana State Employment Service for a chemist to do creative and supervisory work in the cosmetic department of a Kokomo, Indiana, manufacturing plant. It’s a permanent job for a man be­ tween 32 and 40 years of age who has had at least ten years experience in the manufacture of face creams, lo­ tions, salves and medicines, the em­ ployer states.

Vacant lots and back yards are now play centers. Much of the equipment was donat­ ed by local industrial plants. The whole town cooperated to make the project possible, including mothers, service clubs, police department, edu­ cators, Boy and Girl Scouts, manu­ facturers, merchants and others. Accidents to children have been narrowed down to 70 per cent and juvenile delinquencies, once a grave problem in this automotive center, has nearly been wiped out. The slogan of the city is, "Flint, the Safety Play Yard Qty.” Back Yard Playgrounds, other state. , The job has been done by private enterprise. Through line-route, agreements of farmers in many parts! , of the state with various private power companleis, electrification oftheir farms and a resulting decrease, in farm drudgery have been accom­ plished. Electricity for farms, bringing. with it better lighting, more effective, methods of churning butter, separat­, ing cream from milk, even milking■ the cows, has long been an ideal of' progressive farmers everywhere. That Michigan has managed to ach­, ieve this ideal in large measure is, good cause for satisfaction.

They must choose “life and good,” that is. choose to worship the true God, that they might prosper. How often do individuals have to make the choice between “life and good" and “death and evil"! To those ignorant of the spiritual facts of being the evil way often appears to be the good way. A business man might believe that untruthfulness, dishonesty, and unscrupulous meth­ <jds that come under the classifica­ tion of “sharp business practice” will cause his business to prosper. A man might be fooled into believing that gambling can bring just riches. A young person might be misled into thinking that smoking and drinking confer happiness. But the way of error always turns but to be the way of "death and evil.” There is no true success apart from honesty truth­ fulness, true service, and industryThere Is no true happiness apart from goodness and purity. At the time of an election, when it is necessary to make a choice be­ tween candidates, the true Christian Scientist chooses, not from the standpoint of human personality, but from the standpoint of spiritual qualities. The candidate who expresses such qualities as* honesty, truthful­ ness, humility, tolerance, justice, mercy, is the one who will look tp God, divine Mind,, for guidance. We certainly want those to be in office who will express wisdom and intelli­ gence. True wisdom and intelligence true qualities, of God. Dishonesty. pride, domination, self-will, and slmliar qualities are not of God; so the one who allows such thoughts to abtdc in his consciousness to not re­ flecting true wisdom and intelligence. The following, from an article en­ titled "Politics," In the Boston Post. November, 1908, may be found on page 276 of "The First Church Of Christ. Scientist, and Miscellany;" "Mrs. Baker Eddy has always believed that those who are entitled to vote should do so. and she has al­ so believed that in such matters no one should seek to dictate the actions of others. In reply to a number of requests for an expression of her political views, she has given out this statement:—'I am asked, "What are your politics?" I have none, in real­ Ity, other than to help support a righteous government; to love God supremely, and my neighbor os my­ self." The genuine Christian Scientist seeks to be influenced not by mere party, relatives or friends; he looks to divine Mind for direction, and con­ siders which candidate most clearly expresses the Christlike qualities. When Samuel was sent to anoint one of the sons of Jesse as the future king of Israel, he would have chosen from the mortal standpoint of per­ sonality, but he received this advice from divine Mind: "Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him; for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward ap­ pearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart" (I Samuel 16:7). Earnestly, then, should we pray that we may discern the qualities that animate the candidates, in order that we may rightly choose the one to fill the ofMrs. Eddy writes (Miscellany p. 4): "The pride of place or power is the prince of this world that hath nothing in Christ. Our great Master said: "Except ye . . . become as lit­ tle children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven,"—the reign healing the sick and saving the sin­ ner. The height of my hope must remain. Glory be to Thee. Thou God most high and nigh." One in whom the Christlike qualities of purity, hu­ mility. and faith most clearly abide is the one for whom right thinking citizens will wish to vote because such a one will be receptive of God s guidance in upholding righteous gov­ ernment.

Let us, then, when considering the present election, earnestly pray that all will be able to discern which candidates best express the qualities of divine Mind, God, and which therefore will enable them readily to lend themselves to God’s government —the government of divine Prindpte. The Christian Scientist, through his realization of the spiritual facts of being will keep bis thoughts above criticism, jealousy, resentment, fear, confusion. And he will not in any degree be deceived by the vagaries of astrology, purporting to prophesy coming events. Recognition that there is in reality but one unchang­ ing government, and rejoicing in the government of God, divine Mind, will keep one’s thinking above the errors of mortal sense that seem to affect those who do not understand these spiritual facts. In reality there is only one Mind or Principle governing tile spiritual universe, including indi­ vidual man, in perfect harmony.— Christian Science Monitor.

In the first place, while the act was framed to curb the driving of those who faU to satisfy damage judgments returned against them, ac­ tually less than 200 drivers were in- . vofved for this reason during the three year period. More than 10,000 drivers ran afoul of the act during this time. While those failing to meet judg­ ments returned against them for damages are barred from the high­ ways until the judgment is satisfied, others involved for a considerable list of other reasons—all violations of the motor vehicle act—are barred for three year periods unless they meet rigid requirements.' Less than 15 per cent of all drivers involved have been able to meet these conditions. The 1935 legislature amended the Financial Responsibility Act, remov­ ing 1,552 drivers from the barred group leaving 8,874 barred by the act. Of these. 8,162, or nearly 91 per cent were barred from driving on conviction of drunk driving charges. The three year suspension period for those first undef the act, convict­ ed for motor vehicle violations, ex­ pired October 17. third anniversary of its effective date. LIGHTS IN YARDS HIT FARM THIEVES Desire for better lighting in the farm home and other farm build­ ings is the principal motive which actuates fanners to secure electric service.

It sometimes becomes necessary to guard against thieves and other night prowlers. Properly located yard light helps serve this purpose. The cost of these lights is often paid back several times by a noticeable decrease in theft. Wher­ ever they are installed .they should flood the barnyard with light.

Evangelical Group In Battle Creek Tuesday How To Get Your Share Nature ha* been unusually kind to the grower* who farm in the sugar beet area* of Michigan. Your natural soil is just about “made to order" for a profitable planting of Sugar Beets. Naturally incomes vary from season to season. Circumstance* control them. One year they are good—another not so good, etc. But that is true of any business. In this matter of making a living, we must consider the long pull. The essential consideration, from every standpoint, in the profitable growing of Sugar Beets, is to stick to a regular acreage in beets every single year. If you do that you will make more money in the long run. Here’s why: Sugar Beet* fit into your rotation program admirably. For you grow beets not.only to make money but also for the beneficial effect on your soil. The growing and proper cultivation of beets give* to your soil those necessary properties required to keep it healthy, fertile and productive of other crop* in the natural cycle of rotation. Your rotation might be clover, com, then Sugar Beets, then oat* or barley, but whatever might be the best rotation for your locality, you’ll be money ahead if you plant beets every single year. Now here is another important point: Beets are unusually “tough”. They can “stand the gaff”. A* a matter of fact, beets, more than any other crop, de­ velop in wet weather, in dry weather, in hot weather and in cold weather. This means that when you grow beet* and get up against adverse weather conditions, you are more certain of a good yield than you are with any other cultivated crop. You can make mure money on Sugar Beett on a year in and year out basis than you can from any other crop, and there are ample facts to back this statement. You’ll always get your just share of Michigan's $10,000,000 Sugar Beet crop if you stick to a regular Sugar Beet planting year after year, after year.

New Type Of License Plate, When you’re driving along a city street or on a highway, you're always attracted to an out-of-state license plate, and one which will draw more than usual interest this year will be that of the state of Connecti­ cut. From a description of this plate in ••The American City," it appears that Connecticut is to be the first state to adopt a permanent type of automo­ bile license plate. It is made of al­ uminum with black letters against a natural background. Letters and nu­ merals have been designed with a view to greater visibility. The num­ ber designating the year is located in the middle and at the bottom of the plate. This insert will be of different color and design each year. This type of license plate has been adopted in the belief that it will be more satis­ factory to the car owner, and will be a convenience to the public as well as saving the license department money and time in issuance of license plates. Lucky American A European woWomeu. man writer, visit­ ing in this country for the first time, in an article in “Delineator" tells why she envies American women. Here arc a few of the reasons. The American woman's opportunity to obtain ready-made dresses vrbich really fit, at reasonable prices. For automatic ice-boxes which are commonly accepted here and which only millionaires can afford in France. For the fact that her beau or hus­ band can take her places in an auto­ mobile instead of on a crowded bus or subway. Owning*an automobile in France is a great luxury. For the privilege of dining alone tn a restaurant. Many of the best French restaurants will not serve a woman who has no male companion. And for the amazing discovery that the American man will wash dishes and otherwise assist his wife around the house without considering it un­ manly. The author says she wants to re­ turn to the United States again as soon as possible. If you've ever suf­ fered from destruc­ tion of property by fire, you'll know that nothing can ful­ ly repay you. A fire insurance policy will rebuild a houae. . But it won’t bring back keepsakes and the hundreds of irre­ placeable articles that most of us gather through the years — articles With little intrinsic value. Nothing can. There are mayn things that dol­ lars can't buy. Also, an insurance policy may re­ place a burned factory. But it can't pay for lost work, destroyed oppor­ tunities, depleted purchasing power. When workmen's incomes stop, the whole community feels the ill effects. Fire Prevention Good Business. Storekeepers paid by all other property must be increased to make up the deficiency. Cases are on record where a fire has destroyed a town's principal in­ dustry—and the result was that com­ munity progress came immediately to an end and stultification set in. Every wise home-owner and busi­ ncss-owner carries insurance—but if he is really wise, he will realize that his policy, no matter how complete, can never completely pay for the re­ sults of a fire. He will realize that prevention is better than. cure—and that systematic fire prevention, car­ ried on by every individual as well as by the authorities, is good business that keeps money in all our pockets. Will Your Name The past summer Be Next? was one of the worst on record in the matter of automobile accidents and deaths. And the most dangerous driving months are still to come—the months of rain and ice, and few daylight hours. Every season sees better, more scientifically designed highways— and yet accidents grow worse, both in number and severity. Every year sees stronger, more easily controlled, and mechanically safer cars—yet the carnage grows. It is true that a percentage of ac­ cidents can be directly attributed to mechanical failure of automobiles, or to road conditions. This percentage marks but a very small part of the total of crashes. The human ele­ ment is responsible, and alone res­ ponsible, for the great majority of accidents, minor or major. Worst merace of all is the driver who attempts to push the throttle through the floorboard—who operates his car at excessive speeds. And ex­ cessive speed is a flexible term— there are times when fifty is safe, and fifteen too fast. Then there are the drivers who pass on hills and curves, who hog the cen­ terline, who allow their car to wander to the wrong side of the road—and drivers who commit a thousand and one driving errors that may save a minute .and may also send themsel­ ves and others into eternity. You see many headlines like: “Five Killed When Cara Collide." You read the names of the victims, go on to other articles and forget all about them. Next time you see such a headline, just reflect that your name, or the name of a friend or loved one, may be in the next similar list of corpses. Then it won't be so easy to forget London Buying Anierica. It has been contended by various stock exchange au­ thorities that the extremely high margins now required by law have unduly restricted security trading, caused artificial market conditions, and made the stock market “thin" and "illiquid." Now, writing in the New York Times, Hallam Boyd says that our official margin requirements "may have the effect of driving busi­ ness in American stocks to the Lon­ don market and may even lead to Europeans regaining control of lead­ ing American securities." Mr. Boyd summons impressive fig­ ures: Investments by foreigners in U. S. securities at the end of 1935 totaled over $5,000,000,000 as com­ pared with $4,.270.000,000 at the end of 1934—and it is estimated that the total is now in excess of $6,000,000,­ 000. Commenting. the Times says: "Part of the foreigner's advantage in buying American stocks, Mr. Boyd believes, came with the devaluation of the dollar; but differences in mar­ gin requirements now play an im­ portant part. Where the American buyer must put up 55 per cent tn cash when he wishes to buy Amer­ ican slocks, the foreign buyer of our securities need put up no mere than 25 per cent cash. ... A further dan­ ger is that wealthy Americans are beginning lo trade in our shares in the Landon market, where the SEC and the Federal Reserve Board have no control Markets tend to go not but where prices are 'closest'where a trade can be niMt readily According to C. W. Kellogg, the president of the Edison Electric Institute, the miles of rural lines being built bv the electric light and power companies this year are already almost twice the number built in 1930. Nearly 100,000 rural customers are expected to take electricity from tliesc new lines, and 60..000 custo­ mer? will be added to existing lines. The average cost of the lines, includ­ ing meters, transformers, etc., is about 11,250 per mile. This should take some of the wind out of the sails of those who claim that the private electric industry is­ n’t interested in advancing farm elec­ trification. The truth of the matter Is that the industry is just as eager as the farmers themselves, or the criti­ cal politicians, to bring the blessings of power to a larger part of the na­ tion's farmers. But there are diffi­ cult problems involved that can t be worked out in a minute. For instance, the principal cost fac­ tor is charges on investment. This year's figures show that the combined investment of utility and customer averages $476 to get power to a far­ mer whose average bill for current consumed, in aneas not dominated by irrigation pumping, is about $4 per month. It is obvious that in many parts of the country economic con­ ditions make it impossible to rapidly extend lines under these circum­ stances. Yet the power industry is working constantly on the problem, and it is going the limit in building new rural lines. It is cooperating to the fullest extent with the farmer. And the re­ sult is that we are gradually attain­ ing rural electrification on a sound basis-^-on the basis of self-supporting private investments, not government subsidies charged to taxpayers.

Senator One first became well known when he served as mayor of Watervliet in its early history as a fifth class city. He made a fine record there and was called upon frequently to go about the state to tell the story of the new ciy organisation. As mayor he was also a member of the Berrien county board of supervisors. This body is a training field for many a mon who later becomes prominent in the public life of the state. Mr. Case has been publisher of the Watervliet Record for many years and as such be has come to know men and policies in a large way. Editor Case was elected to the state senate in 1912 and served one term. He was again chosen by the voters of his district in-1932 and was re-elected in 1934. As senator he proved to be a natural leader and the last term he served he was president pro tern of the senate. He has been active in much legislative work and served as a member of the Crime commission. Last September Mr. Case ran for the nomination for lieutenant gover­ nor on the Democratic ticket but lost to Leon Nowicki of Detroit The con­ vention which followed nominated him for secretary of state and in the election he won over Orville E. At­ wood, the Republican incumbent In an interview last week Senator Case dlscu.-^ed for the weekly read­ ers of Michigan the plans he was making for his new department. First of all he stated that motor­ ists may be sure that they will have until February 1 in which to obtain their new licenses. Secretary At­ wood had already made this promise and Mr. Case assured us that it would be carried out religiously. "I do not know much about the of­ fice nor the people running it,” he said further, “therefore I do not wish to make a lot of rash statements about what I will do. I have heard some complaint about the time It takes to secure chauffeurs' licenses ^nd I hope to hasten that operation if possible as well as the time involv­ ed in securing transfers of title. I will certalny make a study of what other states are doing in this regard and if I can secure any hints from them I will put them into operation. “It may be of course that the vol­ ume of business in Michigan is such that the matter cannot be hastened at all but I will do my best. •T fully realize how anxious people are to secure the renewal of their op­ erator's licenses and if I can hurry his up at all I will surely do so. “The office is a big one as well as very important to the -people of Mich­ igan and I hope and plan to give them the best service possible.” When asked about changes in the office personnel, Mr. Case said, “I do not know any of the people there and it will take some time to make up my mind as to what I will do in the process of making changes which of course are always taking place in an office of this size. One thing you may depend upon, I will take my time and study the entire matter be­ fore any wholesale changes are made. I will not under any circumstances do anything to itterrupt the service the people of Michigan have been get­ ting. That must come first and changes for political expediency will be the last to be considered." Certainly in entering upon his new duties the senator is anxious to serve the people of the state first and last The Gas Case. There is now being tried at Lansing a case brought by the Grand Rapids Gas Light Co. of Grand Rapids to prevent the Michigan Public Utilities commission from preventing the dis­ tribution of one hundred per cent na­ tural gas to the people of Grand Rap­ ids and its environs. This matter came in the form of injunction pro­ ceedings after the commission had approved a fifty per cent mixture for that territory. The company alleges first that there is ample gas in proven reserves. The state takes sharp issue on this point. The company has produced “expert" testimony to prove Its point. The state in countering with the same type of witnesses to prove that the reverse is true. Then the company alleges discrim­ ination as long as other cities and communities are being give full na­ tural gas with Its lower rates. This is of course an entirely different mat­ ter and Involves a different point of law. Another contention being urged In the suit is that the state through its utilities commission has no right whatever to enter into the control of natural gas except to take measures to prevent it* being wasted and the supply exhausted without the public getting adequate return.

"I am appealing to the hunterst o pick out some other, less expensive target if they must get in some prac­ tice shooting,” Commissioner Van­ Wagoner said. ‘The habit of shooting at our signs is not only expensive to the state but is also very dangerous from a public safety viewpoint Most of our signs are warning messages. If they are destroyed, accidents can be expected to Increase. I realize that the hunt­ ers who have been making targets out of our signs have no malicious intent but we would appreciate it if they were a little more thoughtful." The Sugar Beet’s Own Story “Lst’s have a friendly chat, Mr. Grower! You are situated right in the heart of one of the best sugar beet sections of America.” “Just as certain sections of Louisiana are best for raising sugar cane, your aection of Michigan is peculiarly adaptable for raising Sugar Beets. Thousands of farmers—many of them your neighbors—find this true. ” “Naturally, every year cannot be good for a bumper crop. No one is blessed with perpetual prosperity.” “So get this fact firmly fixed in your mind: Farm incomes, like all other incomes, must vary from year to year. That is controlled by weather, by sup­ ply and demand, by management and economic conditions.” “But, as all authorities agree, and expe­ rience shows, your soil is excellent for Sugar Beets, isn't it good business to stick with that which is best for your pocketbook?” “Sugar Beets are not a surplus crop. From the standpoint of consumption, you cannot raise too many Sugar Beets.The processors will take all you produce.” “Sugar Beets do not impoverish your soil as do other crops. On the contrary, the growing and proper cultivation of beets gives to your soil those proper­ ties it needs to keep it healthy and highly productive of other crops in proper rotation.” “Beets are hardy. They are not so sensi­ tive. They can ‘take it*. For beets, more than any other crop, take wet weather, dry weather, hot weather and cold weather.” “Thia means that when you grow beets and get up against adverse weather conditions, you are more certain of a good yield than you are with any other cultivated crop.” “So, in conclusion, let me stress thia, Mr. Grower: Year after year stick to a reg­ ular planting of Sugar Beets. Sugar Bedi are the ideal crop from which to make more money.” “When planting time comes around next spring see to it that Sugar Beets are included in your crop program.*' Farmers and Manufacturers Beet Sugar Association, Saginaw, Michigan.

These figures include plates for . al) classes of motor vehicles, including passenger cars, dealers' cars, com­ mercial vehicles and motorcycles. Plates for 1937 went on sale Oct 21, so ordered by Orville E. Atwood, Secretary, as an aid. to car manufac­ turers who bring new models out in the fall now, ^rather than during mid­ winter. Plates for which revenue was actually checked into the De­ partment of State 'for the first 19 days of sale, including Nov. 12. show­ ed that 21,388 pairs of plates bad been sold throughout the state. Any disposition on the part of the public to defer purchase of plates for cars they now own, is seen as a re­ flection of uncertainty as to what changes the 1937 legislature might make in the motor vehicle* law as it pertains to the deadline for annual plate purchases. Atwood has publicly recommended a March 31 deadline; and on request of Leon D. Case Secretary of State­ elect, Atwood has announced a 30 day extension from Jan. 1, making the prospective deadline Jan. 31. In the meantime the 1937 legislature may take action on this matter. MICHIGAN SUGAR BEET ACREAGE TO BE INCREASED Addressing a group of sugar beet growers, J. F. Cox, formerly of M. S. C., said, in part,, "The greatest pro­ fits in sugar beet growing generally go to growers who get high yields per acre. Considered from the stand­ point of the return from the average crop, this crop gives the largest gross return of any cash crop grown on an extensive' scale in Michigan. "The high acreage valuation of the sugar beet crop means money to the grower, it pays good return to labor­ ers, and it markedly increases com­ munity wealth. This Ls the strongest argument for sugar beets—the high returns per acre. . "The soils of Michigan are unus­ ually well suited to the production of beets. In discussing the poss'ble in­ crease of sugar beet growing this point is one that gives us a firm foundation. "There is opportunity to extend the beet acreage. The acreage in Mich­ igan could easily be extended to 300.­ 000 acres If needed. "In considering this crop, it is in a class that is entirely different from wheat, com and potatoes. Sugar is still largely an imported commodity. There are no present adequate rea­ sons blocking the reasonable expan­ sion of sngar beet growing in Mich­ igan and other adapted sugar beet states. We will gain by expansion in this and other sugar beet territories in the United State- to a point where importation is not necessary. "The practices necessary for the most profitable production of the su­ gar beet crop, benefit other crops in rotation. You do not get all of your return out of the beets—you get a good return out of the following crop for the beet crop cleans up the land, leaves a fertility iesidue, provides an excellent seed bed for small grains and clover seeding made with them."

This is an average of over 15,500 per month. During the first few months the bulk of the placements were on federal projects but sinev January jobs in private industry and with private contractors have shown a steady monthly increase. At the end of the year the situation has completely reversed itself, the majority of jobs now being with pri­ vate industry and contractors while comparatively ’ few placements in re­ lief work projects are being made, ac­ cording to Major Starret There are 42 district . and branch offices serving each of Michigan's 83 counties. Localities remote from N. R. S. offices receive itinerant regis­ tration service. Approximately 60 of these “part time offices" arc operated by representatives out of the nearest district or branch office. Major Star­ ret said. The NRS is a division of the U. S.

This Navajo Indian rain god from the plains of Colorado offers In front view * conventional likeness of the clay figurine to which these plains Indians looked for help In dry weather. The back view, however, with the Initials C T C M, presents an example of aboriginal shrewdness and observation. At some time In the past, telephone poles carrying those letters were placed near their reservation, and the Indians reasoned that If white men put bare poles In that dry ground and expected them to grow, then the same markings ought to prove efficacious on their rain god. The Initials C T C M stand for Colorado Telephone Company Ma­ terial, that company having been a predecessor of the present Mountain States Telephone and Telegraph Company.

Special arrangements enabled all of the Detroit group, shown above, to take part In the conversation at the same time. At no season of the year are the long distance telephone facilities ot the country used to a greater extent than during the holiday season com­ prising Christmas and New Year’s. Particularly at that time ot ths year cornea the desire to talk to relatives and triends far away so that those who cannot Join the family parties in person are able, through the me­ dium of the telephone, to take part in the festivities of the day, even though they may be hundreds or even thousands of miles away. Most Calls at New Year's Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, NW Year's Eve, and New Year's Day are the particular times when the greatest number of calls are made. The past holiday season showed the heaviest traffic in three jears, Christmas Day having the largest number of calls and Christ­ mas Eve ths next largest In 1933 the largest number of calls was also made on Christmas Day, with Christmas Eve next. New Year’s greetings for 1935 were made not only to persons far and wida to thia country, but the traffic by telephone to foreign lands reached the highest figure to the history of the Bell System’s overseas service. A total of 171 overseas con­ versations was handled on New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day at the foreign service swltchbyrds In New York. San Francisco aafMianil, uniting American subscribers with friends and relatives in most of the countries of Europe and also in Palestine, South Africa, J»pan and many other distant lauds. 565 '"veraess Calls This New Year's traffic brought ths grand total for the two peaks at Christmas and New Year’s to an all­ time high. Daring the four days comprising these holidays, a total of 565 overseas calls was completed, against 509 the year before. Of these calls, 470 were through New York, where the traffic showed an increase of 13 per cent from the previous rec­ ord of 415 established In 1933. Difference to Timo A majority of the overseas calls were outward, demonstrating once again the fact that Americans are more telephone conscious than are the people of other lands. A number ot long conversations were held, and one lasted for all of 40 minutes. A large proportion of the calls across the Atlantic were to London, but Paris and Rome also had a substan­ tial number. One feature of the traf­ fic of both Christmas and New Year’s was that American subscribers who received calls from the Far East on Christmas Eve or New Year’s Eve soon realised that such calls were not premature, as they came from places where the holiday arrived fourteen hours before it reached New York. Calls to Ships at Sea Comparatively few ships were on the high seas over the holidays, as bookings had been so arranged that as many as possible at the ocean liners would be to port. However, passengers on the ships that were at sea were not forgotten, and a number o£ shlp-toahore calls were handled. On New Year's Eve alone, 27 conversation* were held with pas­ sengers aboard the Monarch of Ber­ muda. Queen of Bermuda, He de France, Europa, and Aqultanix Other ships which had traffic durtog the holidays were the Empress of Britain and the Olympic. In some caws the ships were half-way across ths'Atlantlc while to others they v. Xue nearing port. �TOVBSDAY. NOV. 13, 13-j THE N4SHVHJJE CTtVB, | spraying cdtOa, W.

Church Was Scene Of Banquet Mystery Mother And Daughter Ban­ quet Held There On Friday Night One of the most successful ban­ quets ever held in Nashville w&« held at the Evangelical church Friday, Nov. 20, A year ago each lady from the church drew the name of one of the Sunday school girls. All girls were included from age seven to the alumni class. The mothers were to write often during the year and send a small gift for Christmas and their birthday, etc., but were to be very careful in not letting the daughters find out who they were. Out of 65 daughters only four had guessed tho right mother, so it had indeed re­ mained a mystery throughout the year. All gathered at the church parlors at 5:30 Friday night, when each dau­ ghter was given a chance to guess who she thought her mystery mother had been. Then the mothers march­ ed around and picked out their mys­ tery daughters, which caused much excitement, as some who had felt sure they knew who theirs was. had a big surprise. They . then marched to the basement where tables were beautifully decorated in yellow, green and orange. Covers were laid for 130. which places were all filled with mothers and daughters. A bountiful dinner was served, which had been furnished by the mothers. Mrs. Max Defoe catered, with Will Hecker and Fred Ackett as­ sisting. and eight boys, Billy Hecker, Jack Bowman. Wallace Graham. Al­ bert and Duane Spaulding, Dick Brumm, Frank Purchis, Jr.. and Bruce Brumm, as waiters. After the dinner all marched back to the church parlors where a lovely program was given. It was voted to carry this work on another year, but taking the boys of the Sunday school this time in place of the girls. So the coming year's work will close with a Mystery Moth­ er and Son banquet. Those in charge throughout the past year were Mrs. Nettle Parrott. Sunday school super­ intendent, and Mrs. Della Bowman, acting as medium.

STARRET REPORTS THAT SINGLE DETROIT OFFICE BE.ATS 35 ENTIRE STATES The Detroit office of the National Reemployment Service found 3,099 jobs in private industry for Wayne county residents during October thereby establishing one of the best records of any of the 1700 U. S. Em­ ployment Service offices throughout the country, Major Howard Starret, State Reemployment director, said. It was the highest number of pri­ vate placements made in any one month and is probably the best rec­ ord of any of the U. S. E. S. offices housed under one roof, according to Major Starret While placement records of the country's public employment offices are not yet available for October, the Detroit record compared to Septem­ ber figures illustrates the relatively great amount of placement work per­ formed. The office, one of 42 In Michigan, during October made more placements in private industry than the total pri­ vate placements of all various offices in each of 35 states and the District of Columbia during the previous month. Only 12 states, most of them hav­ ing both S. E. S. and the N. R. S., re­ ported total state private placements in excess of those of the single De­ troit office. While the office. located at 318 E. Jefferson avenue in downtown Detroit and managed by Frank Christensen, is reputed to be the largest public employment office occupying single premises in the U. S., it is also one of the youngest.

Along this section of the line between Albuquerque and Socorro a veritable -Sahara exists. Due to the ever shifting sands, the region is utterly devoid of any vegetation.

In the case of a four-year rotation, one-quarter of the suitable soil should be planted to sugar beets annually. An unbalanced rotation system should be avoided, therefore, after de­ ciding the length of the rotation sys­ tem to be adopted, the farmer should plant as many acres to sugar beets each year as is consistent with good farm practice. For example, if a farmer has one hundred acres of suit­ able sugar beet land, and he adopts a five-year rotation, not less than twen­ ty acres of sugar beets should be grown each year.

FEED COST PUTS PROFIT IN CULLING BOARDER COWS D. 8. Class Met. The D. S. class held a very Inter­ esting and profitable meeting Tues­ day afternoon at the home of Mrs. Arthur Hill. Mra. Alice Pennock had charge of the devotionals and Mrs. Mae Kohler entertained with two very fine readings. A very enjoyable package sale was held which resulted in receipts of $3.15 and caused a lot of fun. "The New D. S. Class Glory Song," as composed by Mra. M. E. Price, was heartily sung, to the tune of "Battle Hymn of the Republic.” Which cow to keep and which cow to cull in the face of rough feed costs may perplex many a dairyman in Michigan this winter, • but th" solu­ tion is not difficult if the dairyman knows what his cows are producing and what price he is receiving for the product. “The high producing cow is still tops in the herd in spite of high feed costs.” advises A. C. Baltzer. exten­ sion dairyman at Michigan State col­ lege. “The problem cow Is the one in the* lower brackets and a thoughtful dairyman will measure this animal against feed cost and product outlet to see if she is worth keeping." . Baltzer*has developed for this pur­ pose a yardstick by which cows may be measured for possible profit. Feed costs are roughly 50 per cent of cost of production, labor constitutes an­ other 25 per cent and the remainder of tne cost is in operating expense including investment and equipment and Incidentals. In the yardstick table the yearly feqd cost figures are based on the re­ sults of testing and feed cost data with 7.040 cows in testing associa­ tions in the state in 1935. increased by 5 per cent to account for higher feed prices in 1936.

Barryville Church To Have District Meeting First in Nashville to buy 1936 tub­ erculosis Christmas seals was Lentz Table company, the Michigan Tuber­ culosis association announces. The thirtieth annual sale of the tiny mes­ sengers of health opened on Thanks­ giving Day and will be continued through to Christmas. Sixty million of the Christmas seals were distrib­ uted in the state this year by the as­ sociation and its affiliated organiza­ tions. to provide funds to carry on the fight against the White Plague in 1937. Thanking and complimenting the Lentz Table company on their early purchase, Dr. Bruce H. Douglas, pres­ ident of the Michigan Tuberculosis association this week urged that all others in the state who have received seals make their returns as soon as possible so that expense of follow-up letter might be spared. "Never was the need so great for an intensive * anti-tuberculosis pro­ gram in Michigan,’* Dr. Douglas de­ clared. "Now, with a complete vic­ tory over the White Plague nearer than it has ever been, is the time to redouble our efforts. The 2,044 deaths from tuberculosis. in Michigan last year are a challenge to every thinking individual, in the light of the utter needlessness of the disease.” Since 1931 the Michigan Tubercu­ losis association has brought two of the modern weapons of medical sci­ ence—the tuberculin, test and the chest, x-ray—to more than 100,000 , Michigan people. Funds raised dur-' ing the present sale of Christmas! seals will help to carry on this work. Christmas Savings Checks Sent Out Emory Houghtalln, Baltimore township, won his fishing case in a Barry circuit court decision handed down by Judge McPeek a case which has been of particular interest to sportsmen for the past year and a half. In bls opinion. Judge McPeek held that the lake involved was privately owned and as such that conservation officers had no right to make an ar­ rest without |a search warrant for possession of unlawful fish. The case was the outgrowth of the arrest of Emery Houghtalln, 62, of Baltimore township, on May 11, 1935, by Conservation Officer George Sum­ ner after he found four bluegills in a boat on the shore of East or Hall lake which Houghtalln claimed was a pri­ vate lake. Houghtalln owns 22 of the 25 acres on wnlch the lake is located. The deed to the property calls for a "square40” and neither the deed nor the reg­ ister of deeds records make any re­ ference to any lake on the property. The case was heard by two juries in Justice Andrew A. Matthews' court before reaching circuit court, the first failing to reach a decision and the second reaching a guilty verdict. The case came up in circuit court on Mar. 24. In all three hearings Houghtalin testified that he had not been fishing and did not catch the fish which were found in his boat. The conservation officer testified he had seen Hough­ talin on the lake in the boat. Union Church Service Thanksgiving Mom J.

Byrd, famed explorer, sends a special message of encouragement from his retreat at a Michigan sanitarium where he comes occasionally to rest "Many lives will be helped by your good deeds,” he wrote in urging that efforts be redoubled in the fight to wipe out the White Plague. “Our expeditions to the Antarctic were made for the purpose of bringing back information about that ice-bound region which wc hope will be of some benefit to mankind in the future. But you can count the benefits of the great adventure in which you are en­ gaged — the annual tuberculosis Christmas seal campaign*—more quickly. Good wishes and success for all of you.” Admiral Byrd’s message was re­ ceived by the Michigan Tubercu­ losis Association at Lansing and has been relayed to children throughout the state and in turn carried to their parents. In the picture above Admiral Byrd is shown Just before taking off for the South Pole. He is holding the American flag and a stone from the grave of Floyd Bennett, heroic aviator. .He dropped both over the Pole. Admiral Byrd’s endorsement ar­ rives in the midst of the Thanks­ giving-to-Christmas campaign to raise funds for the 1937 fight against tuberculosis. More than 60,000,000 tuberculosis Christmas seals have been distributed in the state this year by the Michigan Tuberculosis Association. Emphasizing the fact that tuber­ culosis still takes more lives be­ tween the ages of fifteen and fortyfive than any other disease, Dr. Bruce H. Douglas, president of the Michigan Tuberculosis Association, this week urged that Michigan peo­ ple make a generous purchase of the seals, so that the Association may continue its work of prevent­ ing deaths made needless through the modern aids of medical science. "With the goal nearer than ever Rfore, we must not ease-up,” Dr. Douglas declared. “With eradica­ tion in sight we must redouble our efforts.” �THE NAM1 VILLE NEIVS, THURSDAY, DEC. 3, IMS engagement ring he had given her on­ I ly three days before.

VanWagoner, of Mich­ igan, told American highway officials at San Francisco that the states are not yet ready to launch an extensive program for the construction of park­ ways or bther types of divided, high­ ways. fore the annual convention of the American Association of State High­ way Officials, Commissioner Van­ Wagoner said limited revenues in most of the state, including Michigan, work against this type of construc­ tion on a nation-wide scale. He point­ ed to the diversion evil in most states and the great need for hardsurfacing existing mileage all over the country. "It is rather ironical that this as­ sociation seriously deliberates the ex­ pensive problem of divided highways when the greatest danger to road­ building that has ever faced us con­ tinues .at a merry pace," the Mich­ igan commissioner said. "In 1935 the diversion of highway revenues for non-highway purposes increased by $24,000,000 and reached the unprece­ dented level of $200,000,000—enough to build a 20-foot hard-surfaced high­ way all the way from this city to New York Qty.

A bid received for the con­ struction of the new boat was reject­ ed several weeks ago as excessive. The department is now Studying its specifications with the purpose of re­ advertising for blds at a later date. Kennedy also revealed tha't the Pub­ lic Works Administration has defin­ itely rejected the state highway de­ partment's application for federal aid in financing the cost of the new boat. "After a careful review our examin­ ers have concluded that they could not recommend approval of the applica­ tion for a grant of funds with which to aid in financing the construction of a terry beat," the letter of rejection said. The state administrative board has authorized the use of state funds to finance the boat construction. "There has long been a need for improved ferry service during the winter months at the Straits," Ken­ nedy said. ’The delays caused by trains boarding the Chief Wawatam in past years has made the service un­ satisfactory. The Sainte Marie will carry motor vehicle traffic exclusive­ ly. “As a result of this improved ser­ vice, business between the two penin­ sulas should be stimulated during the winter months.

Hay samples were tested accurately for moisture con­ tent after experienced and practical haymakers had rendered judgment on their moisture content and fitness of curing. Etimates of moisture were consistently lower than the results ob­ tained in the drying machines. "Little is known about the process of curing hay. Accurate methods of control are not applied to'moisture which is an important factor in prop­ er curing. If we had an accurate and quick field method of determining moisture content of hay samples, the process would be valuable." In commenting on the cause of| barn fires during a year when field, curing of hay was apparently simple, Musselman suggests a logical theory. The extremely hot and dry earth surface and atmosphere led to rapid drying of leaves and outside surfaces of alfalfa stems so that the farm op­ erator was misled as to the actual condition of the cut foliage. Chopped hay seems to retain generated heat more than loose hay. Low moisture content, ventilation to remove gener­ ated heat or complete exclusion of air ot keep out oxygen necessary for combustion are suggested as possible remedies to forestall barn fires startcd in hay.

Such requests were received from Springport, Benton Harbor, St. Joseph, and Hudson, among others. Thia is the first year that Christmas trees have been barred although the privilege was restricted in 1935. Blomgren said State Highway Com­ missioner Murray D. VanWagoner had ruled out the trees this year in riew of the 1935 experience. "Thia move is not made so much in the interest of public safety aa it is for orderly traffic conditions," Blom­ gren said. "Last year Christmas trees that were permitted on tho trunklines resulteo in such traffic con­ fusion that it was decided best to rule them off the roads."

While returns during the early days of the sale were good, dayto-day re­ ceipts thia week have been slightly leas, it was pointed but. The neces­ sity for maintaining the early pace if an increase over the 1935 mark is to be realized was stressed by the antituberculosli forces. At Lansing, Theodore J. Werle, ex­ ecutive secretary of the Michigan Tuberculosis association, stated it would be necessary to send a follow­ up message to the several thousand in the state who have not yet contrib­ uted, a procedure involving consider­ able added expense. "We realize," said Mr. Werie, "that many of those from whom we have not yet heard intend to give later on, but we have no way of knowing who they arc. So much more would be available for the campaign against tuberculosis if it did not become ne­ cessary to make a second contact in so many instances. We are sure that if people realized how much is saved through early returnsr they would not delay their contributions. "This year there is a special nqpd ■ ■ for a substantial Increase over the 1935 receipts. We are within strik­ a ing distance now of the goal that will be won largely through money. Medi­ cal science has done its part in pro­ viding the modern weapons against tuberculosis . The task that remains is to bring those modem weapons to people who otherwise would never know their benefits. The 2,044 deaths from tuberculosis in Michigan last year are proof sufficient that a vigor­ H ous campaign in 1937 is a prime need." Menerey’s | Drug Store : Next to Post Office.

BELOW THE k SURFACEj Short Courses To Open Jan. 4 Ten Counen Include Chance For’ Youth To Learn Care Of State’s . $10,000,000 Farm Machinery. Getting their own tractor in ship­ shape for the rush of spring work is one of the opportunities available to students attending the M. S. C. eight weeks' agricultural engineering short course which starts Jan. 4, the same date for opening nine other special short courses. Work offered in agricultural engin- | eering consists of a variety of practi­ cal problems from which the student may choose one subject or several ac­ cording to bis needs. Subjects avail­ able are farm buildings and con­ struction; farm mechanics and home equipment, including water systems and plumbing problems lengines, tractors, and electric motors, and wood and metal work. “A considerable portion of the 15 million dollars spent annually for upkeep on Michigan's farm imple­ ments and machines, valued at more than 100 million dollars, might be saved through timely repairs." says H. H. Musselman, head of agricultur­ al engineering at the college. In step with the rapid progress of rural electrification in Michigan, the agricultural engineering short course will offer work in the uses and costs of electrical equipment. Other eight weeks' short courses to be started Jan. 4 are those in general agriculture: dairy production; dairy manufacturing, including buttermak­ ing. cheese making, and market milk; poultry: practical floriculture: home economics; golf course management, and forestry and wildlife conserva­ tion. A four weeks’ special course in commercial fruit production also will begin Jan. 4. Information on these short courses, as well as the other 20 special cours­ es and conferences may be obtained by addressing Short Course Office. M. S. C. East Lansing. Some of the Ideas with which he is working indicate that weeds have to undergo the hazards of drouth, often they are starving for plant food, many are hurt by exposure to cold, others are rotted by fertilizers. ‘ . "It’s like a bear ready to hibernate In poor flesh. He's going to have a tough time during the winter,” says Dexter. "Thus. If we can place a certain weed in poor condition in the fall, then perhaps nature can help us kill off that weed or render it. so help­ less that a crop can be grown." Proof that there are- possibilities In new weed treatment was obtained in an experiment at the college Lake City experiment station. A patch of quack grass was fertilized. It yielded . a two ton crop of fair hay tc the acre, then was plowed for potatoes and giv­ en more fertilizer, the field yielded 130 bushels of potatoes to the acre, was worked and then plowed deep in the spring and the quack had disappeered. • The Beet root spread* toa depth of 6 or 7 faet.

AS MODERN as the pretty youi;g miss who holds him close is the jolly likeness of Santa Claus that appears on the sixty million tuberculosis Christmas seals distri­ buted in the state this year by the Michigan Tuberculosis Association and affiliated organization. Funds raised will be used to carry on the fight against the White Plague that has been waged incessantly by the Association since its organization in 1908. By far the moat gay and color­ ful of matiy seasons, the Christmas seal—designed in mod­ ernistic style—is especially appro­ priate since the educational cam­ paign to fight tuberculosis urge; the use of modern weapons. In the past five years tuber­ culosis Christmas seal funds have provided over 100,000 Michigan people with twpzof the modern weapons against tuberculosis—the tuberculin test and the X-ray. The Associaticn hopes to be able to carry tn- 'his life-saving work in 1937. 1 .044 deaths from tuber­ culosis ia Michigan in 1935 were pointed out as emphasizing the need for continuing the present vigorous campaign against the disease. So that the added expense of a follow-up letter may be spared, Theodore J. Werle, executive sec­ retary of the Michigan Tubercu­ losis Association, this weak urged that all who have received Christ­ mas seals through the mail make their returns as soon as possible.

Not only are there more than twice as many jobs recorded with one more month to go but most of the jobs this year were with privtte industry and private contractors which reversed the situation during last year, accord­ ing to Major Starret Since Major Starret became state From the Rexall Store VON W. FURNISS ' M teetctxKtwpeicte | A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR 3 I Save The F RE E MAN’S Washing an apple may not seem like much of a job. But to wash an annual crop of seven to eight million bushels at a cost of from 3140,000 to S400.000 depending upon equipment and methods is an expensive task. Commercial orchard operators also dislike the delay and bother in mar­ keting due to washing fruit. Ways to spray trees on which the state's apple crop is produced without leaving a poisonous residue requiring a bath for every apple Is promised in experimentation at M. S. C. and the state agricultural experiment station. Regulations enforced by the federal food 'and drug administration forbid marketing of apples coated with a spray, residue over a certain limit. Spray applications are necessary to control the codling moth whose larva feed upon the fruit. It costs two to five cents a bushel to wash apples, so the problem means many thousands of dollars to apple orchard operators. Ordinarily lead arsenate is the ac­ tive poison used to curb the codling moth. Ray Hutso^, entomologist at the college, describes the experimen­ tal work used in testing possible new spray materials which cost no more for materials or application. Pine tar soap, fish oil soap and soy bean meal were combined with zinc arsenate as a spray to substitute for the usual lead arsente. Far lighter residues resulted and these were be­ low the maximum permitted by state regulation. The experiment proved that protection could be applied in a full spray schedule with but one tenth to a sixteenth as much lead residue and with arsenic residue lower than that left by the lead arsenate. Some orchard operators legally have avoided washing apples by re­ ducing sprays after fruit has begun to attain size. This practice, survey work shows, reduces protection and the percentage of quality fruit just as it reduces the overlimit spray residue. Work in the project was carried on in Michigan orchards in 1936 by Frank­ lin Sherman research assistant in en­ tomology at the orchard. reemployment director more 206,000 persons have been sent on jobs through the NRS. Placements during the first five days of December totaled 2,182. Of these 1,969 were with private indus­ try and contractors..

For the first time is five years, the navy recruiting station, Detroit, has registered an applicant making a per­ fect mark in his mental aptitude test for enlistment in the navy. The ap­ plicant, Arthur J. Quinlan, 17 years of age, who resides with his mother at 2733 Wreford street. Detroit, made his one hundred per cent mark when he applied for enlistment Dec. 4 th last This mental test consists of one hundred intelligence questions which, for a perfect mark, must be answered correctly within sixty minutes. Ap­ proximately twenty-one thousand ap­ plications for enlistment have been re­ ceived by the station since the last perfect mark was made, in 1931, and there have been only three marks of 98 during that time. The average mark made by applicants is about seventy per cent, about 35 .per cent of applicants accepted being high school graduates. Young Quinlan attended Northwestern high school, Detroit, until the beginning of the present term and was in grade 11-B. First 16-inch Gun Battleship. The U.

Admiral William H. Standley, chief of Naval Operations, has submitted his request to Secretary of the Navy, Claude A. Swanson, to be retired from active service on January 1, 1937. Admiral Standley's naval career has covered 45 years active naval service. Admiral William D.

SCHOOL Centralized School Resolutions Drafted Krcouunendatiomi Of State Commit­ tee Meeting At Olivet To Be Given Legislature. From Olivet comes news that the state committee on centralized schools, newly created group for this department of education, met Monday evening. Dec. 14, at the home of Ralph Stickle, superintendent of the Walton township schools, who is chairman of the committee. Other members of the greup arc Harry Nesman of the state department of pub­ lic instruction, Lansing, who is legal advisor for the department; Supt. Le­ roy Bell, Middleville, and Supt Oscar Harrington of the Kellogg Gull lake school. Resolutions were drawn pertaining to the handling and place of central­ ized schools in the state, which will be put before Eugene Elliott, superin­ tendent of public Instruction, the Michigan Education association and other educational bodies of the state. The resolutions will constitute a part of recommendations from the commit­ tee which will be placed before the next legislature. The rapidly Increas­ ing number of centralized schools, fol­ lowing a movement toward this phase of education has brought about, it is stated, a public recognition of its im­ portance for Michigan. The recent activity of the committee was an out­ growth of the first meeting which was held some weeks ago at the Lin­ coln school Ypsilanti. The next meet­ ing will be' held in February at Re­ mus, Mecosta county. D. S. CLASS HAD CHRISTMAS PARTY The D.

Doors BANK GROUPS MAKE NATIONWIDE SURVEY the Banking Field Are Reviewed and Position of Banks Analyzed NEW YORK. — Detailed lank re­ searches. covering all phases of prac­ tical operating and economic facts and conditions related to banking, are be­ ing .made by the American Bankers Association The resulting material is being placed at the disposal of all state banking associations, which in many instances are extending the re­ searches of the national -ssociation in, their own states These ictivities are said to be a part of the general pro­ gram of banking development which is being carried on by the organized banking business. Among the most extensive re­ searches being conducted by the American Bankers Association is that of its Committee on Banking Studies, which is making a detailed survey of Federal Government lend­ ing agencies and policies. The basic material, which is kept up to date by continuing studies, shows where the Government agencies get the money they lend, what liability the Govern­ ment assumes, what subsidy it ex tends, what return it gets, for what and to whom the money goes and on what termsit is loaned InveitixaUon ot postal Savings The Committee on Banking Studies has also made a survey of '.he Postal Savings System throughout the United States to ascertain to what ex­ tent it 13 competing with chartered banks Questionnaires were sent to banks in all places where Postal Sav­ ings depositories are operated and their answers will be analyzed as a basis for the committee's findings. The Bank Management Commis­ sion of the American Bankers Asso­ ciation has made a nation-wide sur­ vey covering the movement among banks to increase their earning abili­ ties "through fair and legitimate rates for services they render their riepositors." It has developed a plan of ac­ count analysis as a basis of fair charges "All business in order to justify its i^cistence is founded on the economic principle that a reasonable return should be expected from services rendered." the commission says. The Bank Management Commis­ sion has also formulated methods for installing and operating personal in­ come loan departments in banks ’This plan contemplates making loans primarily to individuate and small business concerns, based upon the character and assured incomes of the borrowers, as distinguished from the usual basis for 'commercial loans,' ” the commission says. It points out that a large part of the population is not now making use of available bank credit and that “tn these people the personal loan de partment extends a valuable service which at the same time is profitable to the bank." it adds that it is "the duty of the banks to educate the pub­ lic to come to the bank for all finan­ cial services Small borrowers should be informed that the local bank is willing to care for their demands" Other Researches Other researches are being made by the Economic Policy Commission of the association dealing with shrink ngex in liquid commercial loan - a used by economic changes m th nation's business methods while th National Bank Division has mad studies of the lending ynTinvestmer powers of this class of bank, the pres ent status of the real estate invest ment field and ot detailed data by states on earnings and expenses The Savings Division has gathered the facts showing savings in banks of all types, the number nf savings de­ positors. the per capita savings for the country a-*5 a whole and the effects of current economic and social changes upon the savings habits of the American people The association's State Bank Div rion has issued the most recent figure ivaliable m to the detailed eond ’.ions of state banks, showing stead mprovement in the position of th late banks, with marked expanaio m their aggregate resources, wht' the Trust Division has compiled guide to fees with a recommend cost accounting system.

Mater '———Thursday, DECEMBER 31, 1936 The New Year Should a Good Fairy Fairy— appear before you on New Year's Eve, waving a Magic Wand and bidding you say. what you would have the New Year bring you, for what would you ask? A hard question, isn't it? After giving the matter serious thought. I believe I would ask the following: 1. Good Health: To enjoy life the first essential is good health. To do good work, good health is absolutely neceowry. To render service to wor­ thy causes depends upon an abun­ dance of energy after the regular work of the day. Yes, I would put good health first. 2. A Job that Fits Me: Moat un­ happiness is caused by square pegs in round holes. Blessed Is the man who loves his work, for work is life and good work is good life. In a task one likes, one finds the largest opportun­ ity for self-expression and service. 3. Friendships: One's life at his work, in his home and outside de­ pends upon friendships. I would ask for friends with whom I would dare to be myself, friends with ideals and aspirations, friends who would in­ spire me and help me to live a bigger, more worth-while life. 4. Constructive Recreation: Body, mind and soul must be recreated fre­ quently. Good books music^ religion, fishing, golf. I would ask for time for these things. 5. Home: Home is the center of life. A home with children, a wife who is a pal, a garden, cozy corners, pictures, an open fire; I would ask that this be preserved. Now won’t you write and tell me what you would ask for if the Good Fairy should call upon you one min­ ute before twelve on New Year’s Eve?—Friendly Adventurer. Small Profits— American retail Big Turnover. businesses operate on an amazingly small margin of profit, which explains why the difference between the price paid producers and the price charged consume™ is constantly narrowing. Some interesting figures in sub­ stantiation of this were produced in a recent discussion of chain stores by Professor Carl N. Schmalz of Harvard University. Professor Schmalz said that the profits averaged by the chain food in­ dustry were less than those of large department stores. He added that it is probable that the industry will be able to continue to operate satisfac­ torily on a net of around 2 per cent What is true of the food chains is likewise true of other retailers, both chain and Independent. They have found that a large unit profit is not essential to good gross profits—that large turnover, at a small unit profit, is the sound way to conduct their business. And competition, which is the soundest arbiter of price, has re­ duced retail profits to the lowest point consistent with sound business practices. This means that the American con­ sumer gets more for his money—and alan gets better goods for his money, whether he lives in a metropolis or "a place where the road widens.” It means too that the American produc­ er receives a larger share of the con­ sumer’s dollar, and has a valuable ally in the modern retail outlets. Highway "The trained driver Distractions, rarely moves his head when driving — he moves his eyes when necessary but especially in heavy traffic, his atten­ tion should ever be straight ahead. If the unexpected never happened, we would have few highway crashes." This is an extract, in substance, from a recent dictum of a nationally known street and highway safety ex­ pert who has been quoted by officials of the Michigan State Safety Council. The expert is probably right There is one thing that’s wrong however, and that is the expectation that the average driver is going to be able to keep his eyes to the front when there is such a mass of roadside advertising—in some cases almost as big as “all outdoors”—scattered all tco closely along the roadsides. Many a road warning sign 1b near­ ly nullified by a garishly colored ad­ vertisement extolling the virtues or advantages of some commercial pro­ duct. Many a road and railroad in­ tersection is made doubly dangerous by the existence of distracting and sight-obscuring signboards. Even when there is no direct danger trace­ able, the fact remains that every dis­ traction offered to a driver is a con­ tribution to his inattention to the full­ time job of putting his automobile ov­ er the roads safely. The whole situation points to the growing need for intelligent study of the outdoor advertising situation— from the standpoint of greater safety, if for no other reason. And the ap­ pearance of many signs off.er plenty of other reasons’ Bridges From ••• Not many Man To Man. months afterwards— at the time of our national political conventions — Dr. Frank Buchman. leader of the Oxford Group Movement which is now active­ ly at work in nearly all countries of the world, said in a radio speech over a network of the National Broadcast­ ing Company: "Have you ever thought where America’s real safety lies? "America’s safety lies in God—con­ trol. God-controlled individuals Godcontrolled homes, God-controlled schools,. God-controlled industry, Godcontrolled politics, God-controlled na­ tions. This means that everybody takes his orders from God • God is the Person that the Amer­ ican voter has got to reckon with in the coming election. For the real question is 'Will God control Amer­ ica'?” Throughout the world the i^gly head of d’etatorship is raised in coun­ tries where God-feartng people once heriahed the liberty to worship in their own way. One extreme has fol­ lowed another until there, is not mere­ ly a dental of Christianity's precepts but a denial of the spirit of God. • • • The true patriotism, it has been wisely said, is the true “dictatorship" of a living God in the lives of men and women in high places and low. We have heard for,a long time preachments about the need of reli­ gion. Our Immediate need, however, is the practice of religion. This in­ volves no controversy over sectarian divisions but a crusade for the simple principle of arousing within ourselves a sense of awareness of a living God. ■ • • Today we are prore to look to legislative chambers to legislate mor­ als forgetting that no contract is any better than the moral standards of those who agree to abide by it. Individualism rugged or otherwise, has taken its toll of men in America. This is not confined alone to captains of Industry. For workmen have not been unwilling to trample underfoot the bodies of their fellow-workmen who dared to enter a plant whero a strike was In progress. The mad passion for gain has provided us with problems that call for seif-restriint as the only solution. At Christmas lime we as individuals share with each other. We give gifts to our friends. We provide for the neediest cases. We partake of the spirit of Christ's life in seeking to catch the meaning of the most joyful of all holidays of the year. But when Christmas Day has passed, the anti­ climax sets in. • • • • America must end her class wars or be destroyed by them. The command of the coming year, indeed of all years in this critical per­ iod of recovery and reconstruction, is to learn how “to live together, to work together, to serve together.” The quotations are from that re­ markable book, "This Changing World." by Samuel S. Fela of Phila­ delphia, business man, who practices what he preaches. But hew shall we learn to work to­ gether and to serve together, how shall we extinguish • the fires of hate and substitute therefor a spirit of mutual good will? There must be a revival of the spir­ it of religion. The Oxford Group Movement, which, without discourag­ ing any creed or sect, seeks to en­ courage each individual to find in his own heart and conscience the living God. is perhaps the most remarkable movement In recent years. It con­ flicts with no church but would in­ spire them all. It looks toward the development of religion in everyday life. • • • ■ One does not need a particular for­ mula of religion to reach for better moral standards. The crusade must be . begun within ourselves and by power of example we can influence others. All day long men work to­ gether in factories, in plants, in of­ fices. Has it ever been suggested that once a day perhaps three minutes of meditation or perhaps five minutes of religious expression by laymen or clergymen from the churches of the workmen themselves would help in that reconciliation cf spirit so essen­ tial! to domestic peace in America? And would it be amiss to suggest that even in boards of directors and in meetings of stockholders there be silent meditation for a few minutes if only to serve as a reminder of the presence of God in business ? These are thoughts occasioned by the celebration of Christmas as we perceive a nation recovering from its debauch of post-war speculation, a nation coming to its senses on the fu­ tility of bloodshed and physical force as the arbiter of human destiny. • • • We are weighed down with problems of ■economic welfare. What, we need as an aftermath of Christ­ mas, 1936, is a clear emphasis on the problems of our spiritual welfare. The words of President Roosevelt come back again: "I doubt if there is any problem— social, political or economic—that would not melt away before the fire of such a spiritual awakening.” And it seems to me one approach is expressed in the words of the Oxford Group song: "To build'together “What none shall sever, "Bridges from man to man . .

The first ztfinch rooms were in­ stalled many years ago to provide telephone operators with a place where they could eat the lunches they brought from home, since they could not travel to their homes and back during the noon hour because of the distance and In most cases there were no suitable eating places for them near the central offices. At first, tables and chairs were pro­ vided. Later, gaa hot-plates, were In­ stalled for the operators to use in preparing coffee and tea and for other light cooking. Then matrons were engaged by the telephone com­ panies to wash the dishes, and be­ fore long they were serving food. As the scop? and attractiveness of the service grew, other employees asked p rmUsion to patron tr» 1l and It The Dining Service Is Not Operated for Profit In the early days, there were dif­ ferent practices as to costs. In some cities, beverages were furnished free of charge, and In a few places food was served without cost. In most cases, however, everything was charged for, and that practice is now uniform thronghout the Pell System, since it was soon found that the em­ ployees preferred to get the money as salary and spend it as they chose. The dining service is not operated for profit Prices are generally about the same as in local cafeterias serv­ ing food of compajabie qualify. Con­ ditions are quite different from the commercial field, however: the ser­ vice is conducted in many small places, and In the larger places it is operated at all hours and even on Sundays aad holidays. Consequently, a small deficit on the over-ali opera­ tion is unavoidable, inasmuch as the dining serrlee is a necessary pan of Bell System Staff Gives Assistance In achieving this aim, the tele­ phone companies have the assistance of the headquarters staff of the Bell System. This applies to all aspects of the subject, from the layout and equipment of the quarters to the preparation of recipes, several hun­ dred of which have been prepared, tested, and eent to the telephone com­ panies for such uso locally as seems desirable. Comparative reports are compiled and sent to the telephone companies quarterly, showing the operating results for each area and for the Bell System as a whole. Starting from very simple begin­ nings, the telephone companies* din­ ing service has kept pace with the need for It, until today it is a sizablo business within the telephone busi­ ness, contributing a large share to the maintenance of wholesome and attractive, working conditions l.r telephone employees. �THr NASHVItJJi NEW*.
