The hosts of friends throughout the state of J. C. Furniss, more familiar­ ly known as Clair, were grieved to learn of his death, which occurred early Christmas morning. His pass­ ing followed an illness of one week, which resulted from a severe heart attack. On Monday evening January 9, the public has the opportunity of seeing pictures of the Canadian wilds, as presented byRev. L. M. Rigelman of Middleville, as the entertainment fea­ ture of the third Community Broth­ erhood meeting of this season, a very worth while program. The pictures, for which there is a charge of 10c for students and 15c for adults who have no Community Brotherhood season tickets, arc to be shown at the W. K.

There is a story going the rounds in Marys­ ville about a farmer who bought a radio from a local dealer only on the provisions that It wouldn't get . political speeches. Not long after­ wards a hot letter came to the deal­ er complaining that all the farmer could get on it was political speech­ es. When the dealer investigated, he quickly found the reason.

The Greatest .Thing A teacher once In Life. asked her pu­ pils what they considered the greatest thing in life. The best answer was given.by a lit­ tle girl who said: 'To grow and grow forever and ever.’ Gutzon Borglum, the distinguished American sculptor who is carving the giants of American history upon the face of Mount Rushmore in the Black Hills of South Dakota, has a stimu­ lating philosophy. "I cannot tell you how to be a giant any more than I can tell you how to grow to be eight feet tali.' he says. “I can merely 'say, ‘Grow!'! Nature takes cam of our physical growth if food and sun­ shine are provided. And nature takes care of our growth within if know­ ledge and beauty are provided. And what is it that must grow within? Find the seed. It is buried down there under the soil and refuse of other people's ideas. It is yourielf. Feed it It may grow into a giant But you will never know it, my friend. Everybody may see it but you. Giants are so humble they fan­ cy themselves pigmies.—The Friend­ ly Adventurer. Carnegie Did Keep in mind that a The Laughing, great executive is a person who never does anything he can have done by someone else, but who nevertheless always keeps busy, not necessarily with hands and feet, but with crea­ tive thoughts. Andrew Carnegie was this kind of a business leader. He once said: "My young partners do the work and I do the laughing.” He knew that a creative, optimistic attitude works miracles. He never permitted him­ self to be enslaved by details. He trusted his assistants, inspired them to grow by giving them responsibil­ ity and authority and kept himself free to attack the big problems. Carnegie's general policy as a busi­ ness man as outlined by Herbert Cas­ son, one of bis biographers, was as follows:!. Mass production. 2. — The 3. Conmost improved machinery. centration: "Put all of your eggs in one basket and watch that basket” 4. Avoidance of details. 5. Travel. 6. Daily reports from managers. 7. Giving managers small salaries and large commissions payable in stock. 8. Re-investment of profits in busi­ ness. 9. Appreciation of chemistry and machinery. 10. High wages, low profits and low costs.—Friendly Adventurer. Who is the world’s champion maker of friends and influencer of people? The old chap with the long white beard and the "rosy cheeks wins, hands down! Peep up, Santa Claus, and take a bowl Why does the world love Santa Claus? Let’s take the old chap apart and see what makes him tick! First of all, he is a joyous individ­ ual. Joy chases away the gloom clouds and fills a room with sun­ shine. People are attracted to the individual as steel filings are tracted to a magnet. Next, be is interested in making others happy. He has a big time planting smiles on the faces of little children. He increases the happiness­ moments in the lives of everyone he meets. He loves his work. It is said that he hums a merry tune as he builds toys for girls and boys. He gets fun out of his job. Ha is a dynamo of enthusiasm. He is chUMUke. Thougn he can do miraculous things, like visiting every home in the world in one night, he is -Mumble* about it He does no boastSanta Clans Ing. He is simple and sincere. He has faith. He believes in peo­ ple. He has looked into their souls with an x-ray mind and found much to admire. He knows that bad little boys don’t mean to be bad. He has a kind and forgiving nature. He is eternally youthful. His hair and his beard are white but his heart is young. He keeps' up with the times. His arteries are flexible. He is so modern he has given up rein­ deer and sled for an airplane. Finally, he is a Giver. His philo­ sophy is to give himself away in ser­ vice. He is the friend of everyone. He lives an overflow life. Santa Claus has built up the great­ est business in the world by following his philosophy.—Wllferd A. Peterson, Editor, in The Friendly Adventurer. "Live in a day-tight compartment," ad­ vised Dr. W. Osler in an address to a graduating class. This advice is a good prescription for successful living. What we become tomorrow depends upon what we do today. Like the stones in a cathe­ dral. a man's personality is the sum total of his todays. The Sanskrit says: 'Today welllived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope.’ I have just read a book entitled "The Great American Novel." It is about a young man who, in his early twenties, resolved a write a great novel about America. The book con­ sists of the young man's diary In which, day after day, he writes his purpose to create the novel. But he never got started. The starting time always was In the future. Almost like magic .twenty years sped away. He failed to grasp today. Many other folks, like this unfor­ tunate man, carry clanking, torturing chains around their lives—the wor­ ries and defeats of yesterday. Today is the only day of which we can be sure. We must put as much into it as we can. We must take as much out of it as we can. Out of our today, we are creating our yesterdays and our tomorrows. Day-Tight Compartments. Just Plain There are groups of Damn Foots, people in this country • at this time who are trying to overthrow this government by any means in their power, regard­ less of their nature. And to say they are just plain damn fools is a mild expression. They either belong to that class, or else they are paid representatives of some other government or some other groups of people that hope by some change or other they may bet­ ter their individual positions. Every one of these individuals, with hardly a single exception, unless mentally deaf, dumb, and blind, real­ izes that by such a change the citi­ zens of this nation would not better their position. They would trade the liberties they have enjoyed for the regimentation that has become so popular in Europe. They would trade the freedom of the ballot box for .the rules and restrictions made by a dic­ tator. They would no longer be free to express themselves . . . the free­ dom of expression would no longer be possible in this country. There would be spies in every com­ munity . . . hundreds of them ... in every home in some instances. In Europe, even the children that are sent to school often become spies on their own parents, and sometimes a statement against he government of a child informant means a jail sen­ tence. And what’would happen to our commercial status? Our growth In this field has outdistanced all com­ petitors. We are credited with ac­ complishing miracles. We have mo­ nopolized the inventive genius of the world. Nearly even invention of im­ portance has come to life within the environment of this country. We know that genius is a product of hard work and tireless effort of this character must have a powerful in­ centive. must be offered rewards that are especially enticing; and the slav­ ery of regimentation brings mental stagnation, and the freedom that is represented by the flight of a bird is reduced to the stupor that we see in popular in Europe. The Dies Committee has brought out in an emphatic manner some of the activities of these groups. Their leaders in many Instances have dreams of being a dictator here in these United States. They would Jike to replace the present govern­ ment, and if any one particular group brings about such a change, their members might better themselves in the mine way that the bureaucratic aristocrats of Russia have surround­ ed themselves with luxuries. We not only have free speech in this country, but we have the privi­ lege of embracing whatever religion might appeal to us. The Protestants, the Catholics, the Jews, and all the devotees of various religious beliefs have been able to commune peace­ ably with each other. There is no reason on earth why this amalgamation of intelligent people should not continue indefinite­ ly.- and every thoughtful patriotic citizen of this country is anxious to continue, as we have in the past, to enjoy the tolerant spirit with which this particular government was first formed.. Let us hope that the Dies Commit­ tee will be able to brand the activiies of hese lawless groups in a man­ ner that they deserve. If such ac­ tivities were initiated in any of the European dictatorial governments, their leaders would be executed with little more than a mock trial, and ev­ ery one of these fiery-spirited enthus­ iasts knows he is taking an unfair advantage of the freedom which is extended to our people. . There 1s a limit, of course, even to free speech. No one would be allow­ ed to yell "Fire!” in a crowded thea­ ter, and there are laws against libel­ ing a fellow citizen . Our system al­ lows us unlimited liberty as long as we do not infringe upon the freedom of other citizens. That is the one and only restriction that should limit our liberties.—Bemarr Macfadden, in Libcry Magazine. FRUIT BULLETINS TELLS IM UBE8. An attractive booklet giving recipes for several Michigan fruits has been printed recently at M. S. C. It is ••Fruits for Tear Around Use" by Ruth M. Griswold. More than a hundred recipes are included for canned and fresh blue­ berries, cherries and peaches, fresh graeps and grape juice. Some of the recipes are quite unusual and sornp are. old favorites. The bulletin has a gay-colored modernistic cover and an unusual arrangement of the print­ ed pages. Usually some change is necessary in a recipe when canned fruit is sub­ stituted for fresh fruit. These re­ cipes were tested carefully with fresh fruit and later with canned fruit. Any changes necessary when using canned fruit are given. Usually leas sugar is needed because sugar has been added to the fruit in canning. An in­ dex Is included of recipes for each fruit tabulated under fresh fruit, can­ ned fruit, and juice from canned fruit. The bulletin is designed to help in­ crease the consumption of our home­ grown Michigan fruits by showing new ways to use them. . Ducky Spud*. Daisy Triplets. have turned up in Michigan. T. ,W.

But each one who entertains in his menal outlook on life the quality of un­ selfishness has established within his own heart a fundamental of happi­ ness.

No one wants to see suffering; no one wants to sec anyone go without the necessities of life; all insist that the needy and unfortunate be proper­ ly cared for. Equally true is it that the present plan of continually add­ ing to the number of those or. relief and the granting of an ever increas­ ing axpount to each individual cannot continue. ’ ' As the number of those on relict increases and the amount awarded each is ever made greater, necessar­ ily the number of those who provide the relief funds diminishes for there are only so many people, workers and non-workers in the country. Inevit­ ably if continued the system will des­ troy those who provide relief funds, then all will be in worse condition than before. For several years we have been borrowing against the future to meet the present day needs. This, as President Roosevelt once said, will wreck our nation. Realizing the above truths, the in­ coming Congress, if it is wise, will adopt the plan of gvlng federal relief funds to the states to be by them in turn paid over to the townships or smallest municipal units which should be required to at least match every dollar of federal funds used for relief in the township. This system will bring the questioriA of necessity for relief; the amount of relief, whb is to receive the relief, and in whal manner it is to be distributed: home to those individuals in each township who must contrib­ ute from their pockets through local taxation an amount at least equal to that furnished by the government As a result of this policy if adopt­ ed. drones will be forced to worl^ the chtaelers will gradually be elim­ inated and no one, because of the in­ herent generosity and charity of our people, will be permitted to suffer. This system will insure enough for all without hardship for^&ny, and take relief out of politics. ■ For an appropriation for relief, properly and economically adminis­ tered. I will vote. For another blank check appropriation to be administer­ ed by political grafters. I will not vote. Sincerely yours, Clare E. Hoffman, Your Representative. That historical advice about going west to find opportunity also appears to apply , to rabbit hunting in south­ ern Michigan. The rabbit hunting during the past season was better in southwestern Michigan than in eiuier the south central or eastern portions. On the other hand, pheasant hunting is us­ ually better in southeastern Michigan than in either the south central or the western portions v . • . Figures from the 1938 seasons, tab­ ulated from actual contacts made by conservation officers with hunters, give an approximately equal number of rabbits'and pheasants shot in the southwestern district. In the south central portion a considerably larger number of pheasants than rabbits were bagged, while the pheasant kill in the eastern portion was still pro­ portionately better. As explanation of this change in ratio between the two kinds of game, game workers point to the difference in cover in the different areas. The pheasant hunting improves, they note, in the more intensely farmed and "thinned out" areas, the rabbit preferring thicker cover than the rlngncck and also seeming to be more averse to staying close to man-made activities. Further discussion of conservation legislation proposed for introduction in the 1939 legislature will proba­ bly held at the next meeting of the state conservation commission sched­ uled for January 12-13. tific purposes from the takes recently ranged in length from 10 to 12 inch­ es and were in excellent condition, according to Dr. A. 3.

It was during those dra­ matic days of March, 1888, that the telephone and telephone people first demonstrated what they were capa­ ble of in a crisis. All forms of communication—with one notable exception — were dis­ rupted by the storm. But—the long distance telephone lines between Boston and New York, and between that city and Philadel­ phia, had withstood the blizzard. Newly built, these pathways for the epoxen word were ready when the emergency came. And watching over these lines were men who were like­ wise ready—men like Angus A Mac­ donald and Jack Stange. . Equipped with Snowshoes Macdonald was a member of a telephone plant crew that worked out of Boston. On the night when the blizzard struck, nineteen of these men were quartered in a hotel at West Boylston, Mass., where they had been stringing additional wires on the New York-Boston Main Line. To these mon, on snowshoes, fell the task of keeping-watch over a section of the vitally important line which linked New York and Boston. Out into the drifts they fought their way, their faces set against the bittejrwinds, carrying heavy colls of wire, clearing tnow from cross­ arms, finding the breaks and mendin-r them. Their fingers numbed with cold, they worked on for hours —.-.-d the New York-Boston line did rot Origin of a Famous Drawing Shortly after the blizzard, the gen­ eral superintendent of the American Teiephens and Telegraph Company, whose headquarters were at New York, suggested that a drawing be p;v;’..red, shewing eno of these line­ men, on fr—jrhr.fs, patrolrng the line dnriv: this first groat emer­ now pensioners of the Bell Telephone System.

With all other communication cut off, long distance wires were the . only means of direct contact between New York, i Boston and Philadelphia gency In which the telephone was a factor. Frank T. Merrill, a Boston artist, was engaged to prepare the finished drawing. Angus A. Macdon­ ald was selected to pose as the line­ man. It has been impossible accurately to determine when the picture was given its now familiar name. A re­ production of the drawing appeared in an advertisement of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company published in magazines of national circulation In March, 1914. The ad­ vertisement bore the caption: “The Spirit of Service.” Got the First News Through On March 18. 1888, Jack Stange had been "out on the lines” all day. He had returned to the Cart tandt Street headquarters of the American Telephone Company, in New York, early in the evening, and was promptly introduced to G. II. Dickin­ son, a reporter on the staff of the New York World and New York cor­ respondent tor the Boston Daily Globe. Together these two were to face an experience that made tele­ phone history. Together, they got the first direct blizzard news through be­ tween New York and Boston — by long distance telephone! The record of that ezploit ap­ peared In a story, signed by Dickin­ son, which was published in the Globe on March 17,1888. It bears the headline: "How W« Got Thebx.” The Poles Were Standing Straight While the cross-country long dis­ tance wires were Blanding, all lines within the city were ’aid low. and Dickinson and Stange had to travel to the edge of the city to reach the Boston lines. Early on March 14, loaded down with their paraphernalia, the news­ paper man and the lineman caught an elevated train which took them to One Hundred and Fifty-fifth Street and there connected with the New York aud Northern Railroad. Finally they reached their destina­ tion. Kings Bridge, about ten miles frem the City Halt "The American company's poles were standing as straight as ortho­ dox deacons," writes Dickinson, "and the line was evidently all right We cleared the snow away around the pole and Jack climbed nimbly up the big stick to the cross arms. “Right here I want to say that Jack Stange is as quick, as dar­ ing, as energetic and as tireless a lineman as ever mounted a pole or twisted a wire. Willing to do anything and capable of doing every­ thing within the range of possibili­ ties, he worked faithfully for me all day and all night long. I think he catches his spirit from his superior officers. They are all hustlers. What other general superintendent but Mr. Hibbard was out over his lines in the snow up to his neck? What other chief operator but Mr. Leon­ ard was facing the blizzard with ‘test’ Instruments? ... Would the Call Go Through? "But 1 left Jack up In the air,” says the reporter, resuming his narrative. "Wo hung up our telephone instru­ ment on the pole and ran a loop to the cross-arms. Would we succeed in raising anybody? That was the question that was paramount in my mind. Jack hitched on the first pair of wires, I rang, shouted ‘Hello’ and listened; no response. I rang again and again, but still there was no answer. ... , The Sweetest Voice Ever Heard "Finally Jack connected the loop with another pair of wires. I again rang and listened eagerly. Presently there was the sweetest voice ever a person heard, answering, ‘Hello, who are you T “I replied and found that the sweet voice came from Springfield. Mass. "Would she help me get Borton? Certainly she would.... It was Dot long before Springfield gave xne Boston and I thought I heard a fa­ miliar voice. It was that of F. A.

CO-OPKRATIVE CROP REPORTING SERVICE The 1838 fall pig crop in Michigan is estimated at 546.000 pig* saved, a 10 per cent increase over the 486,000 Mved the previous fall, 6 per cent less than the large crop raised in the fall of 1836. and 13 per cent more thaan the 10-year average (1927-36) of 483,000, according to V. H. Church. Senior Agricultural Statistician for the Michigan Co-operative Clop Re­ porting Service. Baaed on reports from more than 6,000 farms collected by rural mall carriers, It is estimated that 80.000 litters were farrowed during the period June 1 to Decem­ ber 1. 1938. with an average of 6.62 pigs saved per litter, or a total of 546,000 pigs saved. Fall farrowings in 1837 were 73,000 Utters averaging 6.79 pigs saved per Utter. Combining the spring and fall crops gives a yearly total of 1.185.000 pigs saved, which is 5 per cent more than the previous year and about 5 per cent more than the 10-year (1927-36) average. Michigan farmers report that they have bred or Intend to breed about 24 per cent more bows for farrowing in •the spring of 1939 than were bred for farrowing last spring. If their in­ tentions are fulfilled a total of 118,­ 000 sows will farrow next spring, the largest number since 1927. in which year there were 138.000 spring farrowings. Th*- 10-year average (1927­ 36) of spring farrowings is 98,000. It is estimated that 95,000 Utters aver­ aging 6.83 pigs each were farrowed in the spring of 1938, or a total of 649,000 pigs saved. The average number of spring pigs saved during the 10-year period 1927-36) is 650,­ 000. For the United States, the Decem­ ber 1938 Pig Crop Report shows an Increase of 18 per cent in the fall pig crop compared with 1937; an Increase of 15 per cent in the combined spring and faU crops of 1938; and a prospcc[* tive increase of about 21 per cent in the number of farrowings in the spring of 1939. The number of pigs saved this fall is estimated at 27.­ 651,000 compared with 23,431.00<i in the faall of 1937, the 4-year (1984­ 37) average of 21.744,000, and the 1930-33 average of 29.057.000. In­ tentions for spring farrowings in 1919 are 8,237,000 compared with 6,825,­ 000 farrowings in the spring of 1938; the 4-year (1934^37) average of 6,- COLD SIMPLIFIES RURAL MEAT CURE At this season of the year, rural families' can plan and complete pre­ paration of u year’s supply of meat and meat products. The average person in the U. S. consumes annual­ ly approximately 150 pounds of meat. The family of four persons thus needs approximately 600 pounds of meat or meat products for the year if it ia to consume its share of this product, valued for health and ener­ gy ■ Home meat supplies can be pro­ vided at approximately one-half the cost entaalled when Lt is purchased at retail, it is pointed out by members of the animal husbandry department at M. S. C. All classes of meat may be' pre­ served either by canning or curing. Lamb and veal are most satisfactor­ ily preserved by canning, although they can tx> preserved for short per­ iods of time by curing in brine or dry-salting. If left in a brine cure for over a month, however they take up more salt than Is desirable. Where refrigeration is available, a lamb or­ dinarily can be stored in a family re­ frigerator until used. Beef and pork are the real stand­ bys in Michigan when it comes to providing the year's meat supply. The average aactual per capita con­ sumption of each of these is from 6 to 10 times that of either lamb or veal. Both beef and pork may be brine-cured, dry-cured or canned with satisfactory results. In fact, where a year's supply is desired, it is ad­ visable to use both a salt cure and canning in order to provide variety. Essentials in the preservation of meat are: (1) cleanliness at time of dressing; (2) thorough cooling: and (3) placing in a curing mixture as soon as possible. An excellent cur­ ing mixture for 100 pounds of meat consists of 7 pounds salt. 2 pounds sugar.* 2 ounce saltpeter, added to 4 gallons of water poured over the meat in an earthenware receptacle which is not cracked and has teen thoroughly cleaned. Full directions for dressing, curing, smoking and canning are found in Extension Bulletin No. 151 which may be had by writing the Bulletin Clerk. Michigan State college.

Discharge of (Continued from find page) of my time is supposed to be spent on learning thp language: besides that I help Beulah, the principal of the school over about 20 native teach­ ers, type examination questions and correct them .after they are given. When school begins next year I am to teach the new Standard V which is to be organized then. Beulah is trying to arrange for me to teach all* the Eiiglish and arithmetic in Stan­ dards IV and V and let her do the rest. Hope we can. I dread trying to teach ‘8. African JiUtory, geogra­ phy, nature study, etc., when I know so little about it yet I am constantly being surprised to find how very regular and highly de­ veloped their language is. Almost everything goes according to’ defin­ ite rules with very few exceptions. Their alphabet is like ours except they have no 1, q, or x, and do have six extra letters. These six are var­ iations of b d, n. 3, w, and z. No letter has more than one sound, and the vowels are like the long Latin vowels. Everything is spelled phonatically so that if a word is correct­ ly pronounced anyone can spell it correctly. Wouldn’t that be a help? Also every word is accented on the next to the last syllable. There are nine classes of nouns and the verbs always change to agree with the number and class of nouns. However after only ten days’ lessons I had learned over 100 words in vocabulary, the rules (and how to apply them) for forming the four different forms for each of three tenses and have read and translated over 30 pages in their primer. There is so much to learn yet and I have difficulties wi' trilling my r’s and saying these new letters of the alphabet But knowing Latin has helped infinitely!’ Beulah Reitz is my teacher, but Mesach, a native' boy of 17, in Standard III, helps me every lesson with pronoun­ elation. He is very bright cour­ teous, and fun. You should see us as I correct his English, and he my Chimenyika! # The time here is 7 hours ahead of N. Y. City time and that means 8 hour' ahead of must of you. So when I am going to bed at 8 or 9 at night —Yes, we go to bed early—it is only noon or one with you. And when school starts next January and I crawl out at 5 a. m.. as school begins at 6:40 a. m., it will be only 1:00 with you. I frequently think of you and what is happening there at a certain time. Just last night when I was awake at four, I thought of several groups 1 knew would be having pray­ er meeting. And the folks at N. B. H. S. would be surprised to know how often I think of them and won­ der what classes are going on at that moment. Mail—or post as it is called here— comes twice a week on Monday and Thursday afternoons late, and leaves on Friday and Tuesday morpings early. It is carried by government lorry—truck to the unltlated—in pri­ vate mail bags for each station. I have just begun to get mail lately as it took so long to come and then it has to be forwarded from Old Umtall with several days' delay. But I surely welcome all the letters and papers that have come. I certainly have had so many rare opportunities to go places and see things for the few weeks I’ve been in Rhodesia—just a month today. Since I went to O. Umtali first, I saw that valley owned by the Mission there entirely surrounded by mountains. The irrigation there makes possible vistas impossible here until our dream of irrigation is realized also. I was taken over the whole estate and shown the new buildings that are going up, the plant, etc. Then I had a trip to Mutambara, another sta­ tion, for a day to see the whole plant; I attended the white church in Um­ tali; stopped at Mrewa, another station; live here at Nyadlri; have seen them burn a batch of bricks, have visited the swinging bridge: and went on a delightful picnic the other night at the river where we sat long after supper around a huge bonfire and heard a crocodile in the river below. We caught just a glimpse of it once before dark. I feel very much at home here al­ ready and can't yet make it real that I am in Africa. The people here— both missionaries and our natives— are very fine Christian people, con­ genial to work with. They are hungry for the news of Christ taught both by our lips and by our lives. I constantly pray that I may be an ef­ fective worker for Christ here. THURSDAY, JAN. .5, ICC J STUDIES REVEAL ■ per cen carbon monoxide in the air Chlldrea Jn Coon.

At the same time the Governor would increase the amount of state aid to public schools from $41,000,000 (which they actually received in 1938) to $45,000,000 for each of the next two years; liberalize state old age pensions "at the most rapid possible pace so beneficiaries will have a total monthly income of not less than $30”; and step up the state tourist promotion fund from $150,000 to $200,000.

Here is soother question in ha* with some of our safe driving habit*, or should I aay careless or thought­ less habits. In approaching a "stop" sign post­ ed at a boulevard or through street, may the driver just slow up instead of actually stopping his car Here is the correct answer: No. A driver must stop and make certain that there are no cars approaching the intersection before he proceeds again. Drivers on a through street expect cars to atop a “stop" sign in­ tersections. No doubt you will say. "Why ev­ eryone knows that!" But how many persons follow it? That's the rule. That is the cour­ teous thing to do. Many drivers ap­ proach these “stop” signs at a fast rate of speed to give the drivers on through streets a thrill. This is not only very discourteous, it Is very dan­ gerous, because sometimes (hey over­ step the line and cause the driver on the through street to lose control of his car, and an accident results.

Using your money, instead of spending it, will make your dollar go farther. The secret of using money, as com­ pared to spending it, lies in your con­ fidence that the article you are pur­ chasing will serve its purpose. Neckties, poorly chosen, are indeed money misspent. For a tie to hang well, the tie fab­ ric and the lining should be cut and finished on the true bias. To ascer­ tain this, hold the tie at each end and stretch it lengthwise. If it twists badly. It ha* not been well cu. It should also be so constructed as to make it stretchy and springy, rather than firm and solid. A well made tic is cut full, usually showing four or five folds of fabric at the broad end. An expensive tie will often have seven folds. An extra fold or two will give the tie body and sufficient weight to han& well. Ties so designed are usually made of love­ ly materials. -wm.

S. C. Material soon to be published by the college, "Measuring Hybrid Corns for Michigan?’ by A. R- Marston, holds both promise and precaution. Al­ though the results indicate northern counties in the Lower Peninspla can use some varieies for grain or for filling silo, other varieties even among highly acclaimed hybrids are *o late oh to require the full growing season of the heart of the corn belt in Illi­ nois or in Iowa. "No grower can expect superior or even average performance from hy­ brid corn unless he plants the seed of a hybrid adapted to his particular soil and season," Marston explains. For four year* the hybrid* develop­ ed at the Michigan agricultural ex­ periment station of the college have been tested in a series of over-state trials. Other hybrids and standard varieties have been included in the tests. Cooperation has come from farmer*, county agricultural agents, Michigan Crop Improvement associa­ tion and corn breeders and salesmen. Briefly, tests indicate counties above the Bay Clty-Muskegon line can use in com growing areas such varieties as Minn. Hybrid 402 Kingscroat Hybrid E, Northwestern Red Dent or Wis. 25 Yellow Dent. In contrast the southern tier of counties in Michigan need to-offer fa­ vorable weather to mature such strains as Iowa Hybrid 939, Ohio Hy­ brid W17, Nebraska Hybrid 252. Illi­ nois Hybrid 368, Illinois Hybrid 366 and Indiana Hybrid 416. The publica­ tion. avalable in a few weeks, will map suitable usage in the state for 27 tested hybrids.

C. still could serve a thousand customer* each day if substitutes could be found for cit­ rus fruits, spices and seafoods. Seventy-five per cent of the foods used at the Union Cafeteria, college operated food service, is Michigan grown or processed. Many of the 6,­ 000 students eat regularly at the Un­ ion and nearly all of them eat there occasionally. From Lake Superior and Lake Michigan fish to Benton Harbor cher­ ries and peaches, from St Clair salt to Frankenmuth . cheese, the entire state contributes the best of its foods to feed the students. Figures com­ piled with the aid of food distribu­ tors show that 90 of the 125 stapt: ar­ ticles of food used at the Union are grown or processed in Michigan. Even a startlingly large majority of canned foods from applesauce to tomato juice, from asparagus to spin­ ach and sauerkraut, and blueberries and mincemeat, are among purchases obtained from canning factories of the state. Local farmers bring their products to the Union. The farmer* sell fruits and vegetable* in season, eggs, chic­ kens and turkey* when they have them. Some purchasing is done at the Lansing farmers' market, which means that these foods are Michigan grown. Dairy products are from Michigan production and the range also includes articles from celery sugar, melons to meat, and beans to potatoes. —The First National Bank of Bat­ tie Creek, which has an office in ; Nashville, dropped the trust identifi> cation in the change over from the City National Bank 4 Trust Co., ; which had started the dissolution of the department.

NO BELL SYSTEM, with " its 25 regional telephone companies, your telephone service would probably cost more. Local service in some areas would lag behind that in others. Long distance calls would be greatly compli­ cated. Duplication of manufacturing and research, with duplication of expense, would mean higher telephone rates. Instead, these telephone companies centralize their manufacturing in the Western Electric Company, their research in the Bell Telephone Laboratories. Whenever one company develops an im­ provement, it is promptly shared with the others. This makes for economy and, because of the Michigan Bell Telephone Com­ pany's membership in the unified Bell System, means better telephone service at a lower cost to you.

Delinquent ChiEren’s Home Ceodl- A cursory survey of the case his­ tories of a gang of delinquent boys plainly reveals the fact that they came from broken up, crowded and unhygienic homes. It was found that the parents of these boys were not only drunkards and thieves, but that they were utterly unprepared to guide and direct their children. The problem of inadequate parent­ age is frequently due to the lack of. parental education and to general ig­ norance. In many instances, parents are largely responsible for their chil­ dren’s misconduct because of the exTimples they set for them in the home. When parents are Unaware that chil­ dren unconsciously imitate them, they are likely to give no thought to what they say or do in their presence. Past, Present And Future. Many parents who are brought in­ to court with their children lament the fact that the child of a half cenury ago was not as worldly wise as is the average one of today. While it is possible. that there ex­ isted as much graft and corruption during that period as in our present age, It is doubtful if the ordinary child was aware of such a condition. With modem pictures, radios, news­ papers and magazines exposing crime in every detail, it is hard for the modern youth not to know more of such conditions than did the child of former days. Furthermore our mod­ em civilization does not enable a youngster to develop a sense of res­ ponsibility. For instance, an apart­ ment house offers no opportunity for the performance of specific chores finch morning and evening. All stu­ dents of juvenile delinquency admit that many children run afoul of the law ...simply because they have no work to perform and no responsibili­ ties to assume. Such social elements 'would lead one to think that the problems of children are Increasing. While pres­ ent day children are shown far great­ er examples of law violation, it is be­ coming increasingly evident that psychology and child guidance have offset many of the emotional factors which were prevalent in children of a generation ago. Our knowledge of child psychology and youthful emo­ tional disturbance gives us a deeper understanding of juvenile problems than was possessed by the parents of the preceding generation. When such rapid strides are made in the right direction, the future should hold a bright outlook for adolescents. ' Governmental agencies in Michigan with the power to raise revenue from the public, princpally through taxa­ tion, have increased to where they now total 8,905, a National Consum­ ers Tax commission survey showed. The study, made at the commis­ sion's headquarttra in Chicago was announced through Mrs. W. R. Al­ vord of Highland Park, Michigan na­ tional committtee member and a lead­ er in the organization’s nation-wide crusade against “hidden taxes that are increasing the cost of living." "Taxing units In Michigan are nearly equal in number to the state's schools, hospitals and libraries, the combined total of which is 9,320." the report stated. “These agencies average one for every 544 persons or for every 6.45 square miles." The report pointed out the taxing agencies include those of counties, in­ corporated places, towns and town­ ships, and others as well as state and national units. “It is small wonder, therefore, that taxes of all types, supporting local, state and national governments, now are equal to 23.6 per cent of the na­ tional income," it continued. “Sixty-three per cent of the huge tax burden for these government* Is paid by everyday consumers in hid­ den taxes, against which the commis­ sion is fighting through non-political local women’s groups in more than 2,500 communities throughout the country. These indirect levies are drawn from the people as a whole through increased prices of every purchase.” CHRISTMAS SEALS FIGHT T. B.

The trend right now is on a very good level. There is a great demand for books on sslf-improvement, for books such as Cronin's, The Citadel,* Heiser’s The Horse and Buggy Doctor,' and Anne Morrow Landberg's ’Listen, The Wind'," she said. The closing paper, by Mra. Artie Reed, was on ’The Latest in Educa­ tion." She started with the education of colonial days when the three R's were stressed and brought her paper down to the present day, the day of education for girls, the day of home economics in the schools instead of being taught in the homes, the day of manual training in the schools in­ stead of in the family tool room. Mrs. Reed told of the change in require­ ment for graduation from an accred­ ited high school. Reading from the book is now not taught until the 4th grade; report card grades now are not given in figures and letters. In closing Mra. Reed said, "The modern school teaches the child to do better things that interest him most.” Cookies and tea were served by Mra. F. M. Wotring and- Mra. Martin Graham.

The enthusiasm with which the Brazil was received in South Amer­ ica exceeded anything that bad been expected, Admiral Land reported upon his return. “Beth in official circles and in tbo press the inauguration of this new service has been nailed' as some­ thing long desired and finally real­ ised,” the Admiral said. "With conflict to the East and West, we can look to the South and find neighbors at peace with whom we share the desire to promote the interests of democracy, that these two great continents may make ever more secure their friendship and their future."

In fact, there is considerable spe­ culation as to what .if anything, leg­ islators can do to clip VanWagoner’s wings. Voters back home possess a pecu­ liar yearning for more highways. The chamber of commerce is always agi­ tating a road improvement or anoth­ er that would take motorists from somewhere to elsewhere. Good road sentiment knows no party lines; it thrives amid all income groups. When Governor Fitzgerald propos­ ed that the highway department pro­ vide free ferry service at the Straits of Mackinac, build its own office building at Lansing, and cease dip­ ping into general funds, he threaten­ ed what former Governor Murphy tried to do in spirit Murphy wanted to divert highway funds for welfare relief; instead the legislature author­ ized a “blank check” for >10,000,000. apprehension that patronage-minded legislators might go too far in revi­ sion of the civil service law.

Attorney General Thomas Read was reminded tartly that under the law he was vested with responsibility to provide legal counsel for Brownrigg. Brownrigg did admit that the law made it "Jegally and theoretically possible" for employee to be assessed for political purposes. During an in­ vestigation of telephone fees paid by motorists at a -Detroit branch of the secretary of state, statements were made to the effect that employees were assessed 2 per cent of their pay for campaign purposes by order of Bemkrd Youngblood, deputy secre­ tary.

A meat canning demonstration will be given tn the Hastings High school gymnasium Saturday, Jan. 21, at 2 p. m. Mary E. Bullis, Home Exten­ sion agent, has arranged with Ina B. Rowe, of the Ball Bros. Co., to pre­ sent this demonstration- for the wo­ men of Barry county. The methods of canning, the selec­ tion, packing and processing the meat will be shown 'and the canned goods scored. Suggestions will also be giv­ en to vary the uses of canned meats in meals. With the bulk of home dressed meat to be canned between now and April 1st, it is hoped that all who are interested will attend. 4-H club girls are urged by Miss Bullis to attend the meeting not only for the up-to-date subject matter but also to see an expert in the lecture demonstration method, in action.

After the luncheon Mr. Shinkman gave a talk on Central Europe before several combined classes in the biolo­ gy lecture room of Robinson hall.

The company pays the hospital's bills and also the doctors for their services. It simply will act as a collecting and disbursing agen­ cy, charging only the actual costs of administration. It is group insurance in a form that retains all the professional as­ pects of the relationships between the patient and his physician that have always existed. The patient is free to employ the physician of his choice. If he employs one doctor and is dis­ satisfied with him. he is free to change. For the doctors the plan furnishes an assurance of payment for services, something they have not always had despite the good intentions of pa­ tients they have treated and restored to good health. For the patients It provides a means of budgeting for health. The charges are nominal, tentatively worked out at about 327 a year for both medical and hospital care for the family, and this premium may be paid on a monthly basis. It is a plan intended to lighten the load in a period of sickness or injury and designed to avoid the objections the profession has seen in various gov­ ernment plans such as that used among federal employees in Wash­ ington and by client of the Farm Se­ curity Administration.

B-ck in the offices in the government of the na­ tion. Indeed, today it may be said that none is more important lest it be Secretary of State and Secretary of the Treasury. The office of the At­ torney General, with ail the increas­ ing and perplexing problems of the government, has grown greatly in im­ portance. Therefore the elevation of Frank Murphy to that position is a very signal honor to him and to the state whence he comes. This is an office, too. which should be greatly to the liking of Mr. Mur­ phy. It will give him vast opportun­ ity for study along lines which his idealism directs. It will give him a place close to the President for whom he has the greatest admiration and respect and whose will and desire he will follow most faithfully. The Presi­ dent may be sure that from this mo­ ment the Department of Justice will be making no pronouncements .or taking no actions except that the President has been first consulted and his approval gained. So Michigan may congratulate herself that through her recent Gov­ ernor she is recognized once more in Washington. Attorney General Mur­ phy is to be congratulated that be has attained so high and responsible a position, one of which he may be proud, one which pays him three times the salary he was paid as Gov­ ernor of Michigan. The President is to be congratulated that he has appointed just the man he wants in that post, one who is an ardent New Dealer and one who will do exactly as he is told by his chief, never contra­ dicting nor questioning, one who will echo every whim or desire of the White House.—Grand Rapids Herald. It was a desert place and there were five thousand to be fed. A lad brought five loaves and two small fishes. But a disciple said (John 6:9), "What are they among so many?” How dif­ ferent was the view taken by Christ Jesus: The disciples' thought was Abundance. knowledge this fact aqd all that It implies. No amount of material goods will free us from the belief in limitation. The remedy for lack, want. and insufficiency lies in gain­ ing the spiritual understanding of ev­ er-present good. The real man is spiritual and per­ fect He is conscious only of limit­ less good . Understanding this, one can deny the material supposition of lack. In denying lack and insuffic­ iency and acknowledging the pres­ ence of spiritual abundance, the seek­ er is conforming to God's law—the law of good, which is ever operative and available in human affairs. So long as we look to matter for our supply, we find lack. Jesus look­ ed away from the evidence of the senses to.Spirit, God, when he fed the five thousand. The result was that there was enough and to spar?. When we look primarily to a pay envelope, a bank account, or any other mater­ ial thing for our supply we throw the weight of our thinking on the side of limitation and lack. In managing our human affairs, honesty demands that we balance our budget; but we can claim persistently and joyously that our real income is not material, but spiritual. We can look away from a limited sense of supply, and thank God for the affluence of good. Thousands of Christian Scientists ali over the world are testifying to­ day that persistent spiritual knowing has very practical results. Those who have been unemployed have found satisfying employment. Abun­ dant food, clothing, and shelter have been supplied, and the sick have been made well. Mortals find refuge from limitation by seeking an understanding of Truth. As Mrs. Eddy says (ibid., p. 442), "Christ. Truth gives mortals temporary food and clothing until the material, transformed with the Ideal, disappears, and man is clothed and fed spiritually."—Christian Sci­ ence Monitor. —H.

Those who realize that we cannot always continue to spend more than we take in last Friday won tbelr first ; battle against the Administration's spenders when they cut $150,000,000 from the New Deal s relief bill. True, the cut was a small one, compared to the amount appropriated, and the spending is still left in the hands of the New Dealers, but the appropria­ tion was one to take care of the re­ lief rolls until June. Many FiepubUcans, including the writer, voted for it only after/Repub­ lican leaders and many Democrats had promised that never again would there be a blank check askedx for a like purpose. J The fight was a bitter one. Not only were the Preaidenfs demands cut $150,000,000. but aliens were cUpped from the roll, discriminations In pay exceeding 25 per cent 'were banned and, best of all. the House went on record, although by a nar­ row margin it is true, against the use of one cent of relief money for politi­ cal purposes. No one who has not sat in the House during the last four years and taken defeat after defeat can realize the deep satisfaction that prevailed among many of us. This victory should be but the beginning of a re­ newed and continuous fight to get back to sound, sensible methods. It is my purpose, and I think the purpose of practically Republicans here, to endeavor to return the relief problem to the states, federal contri­ butions to be matched by state funds. MurphyAlhough the appointment of Mur­ phy as Attorney General had been unanimously approved by a Senate committee, following a speech made on the floor by your Representative during which the new Attorney Gen­ eral was asked a series of questions, Murphy asked leave to appear before the Senate committee, did appear and read a long statement in which he admitted that his first order to the sit-down strikers to evacuate the plants was a letter written on the 9 th day of February, 1937. to John L. Lews and read In the presence of one witness. This request to exacuate the plants. Murphy said, was not giv­ en to the public and the next day the strike was settled. If Murphy's statement is true, it shows that be had the power to settle the strike by making a demand that Lewis call his strikers out of the plants. Why did he not do it the first week in January, Instead of waiting a month and letting the working men lose over $-*4.000.,000 ? In a letter sent to him just before he appeared before the committee, I asked him to tell when and where he had ever asked the sit-down strikers to get out of the plants. The fore­ going was his only reply. It proves conclusively that, for more than for­ ty days, in violation of law, as he acknowledged, he permitted the sit­ down strikers to hold the plants at Flint. In other words, his statement shows that he failed to enforce the laws of Michigan, that he violated his oath of office Yet the President selects him as his chief legal adviser. Supreu>e Court. United States Supreme court heard counsel for the Labor Board adnflt that sit-down strikes were 11in them legal, that men engaging _ could be discharged, if they were first reinstated—this in the Fansteel case where the Board ordered the rein­ statement of a number of workers and the payment of back wages amounting to more than $60,000.

This ।early order is made to insure delivery of th* desired varieties and ages at ' the time of setting. The demand for ,seedlings has been so heavy over the past few years that many land own­ ers have been disappointed with order substitutions on delivery. ‘ The cost of the seedling is some­ what varied this year, running from $2.50 per thousand for two year old jack pine seedlings to $5.00 per thou­ sand for three year old white pine seedlings. Seedlings and transplants of different ages and sizse in several varieties of pines, spruce and balsams are available. The service on this project offered by County Agent Foster is to receive orders from Barry county farmers of 100 or more trees, go to the college and secure the trees fresh from the nursery and bring them back fresh for planting, getting away from the expense and drying out of express or parcel post. To insure delivery with the county's order, your order should be in County Agent Foster’s office not later than Saturday, Jan. 28. Visit his office for selecting varieties and placing orders.

Tabernacles, temples, cathedrals and churches have been erected pri­ marily to assist man in his worship. By means of the radio you may re­ main at home or visit a friend and hear music that is almost heavenly, or listen to a wonderfully inspiring sermon, but this great invention, as marvelous as it is, will not enable you to tune in on God nor can it bring to you the joy and strength that comes from associating with fellow-Christians.

Latest rate schedules on file with the Michigan Public Utilities commis­ sion and the Michigan Municipal Lea­ gue reveal Consumers Power com­ pany rates for domestic electric ser­ vice to be among the lowest in Mich­ igan.

Governmental agencies in Michigan with the power to raise revenue from the public, principally through taxation, have increased until they now total 8,905, a national consum­ ers tax commission survey shows. The study, made at the commis­ sion's headquarters in Chicago, was announced through Mrs. W. R. Al­ vord, of Highland Park, Michigan national committee member and a leader in the organization’s nation­ wide crusade against "hidden taxes are increasing the cost of living." "'Taxing units in Michigan are nearly equal in number to the state's schools, hospitals and libraries, the combined total of which is 9,320." the report stated. "These agencies av­ erage one for every 544 persons or for every 5.45 square miles.” The report pointed out the taxing agencies include those of counties, in­ corporated places, towns and town­ ships, and others as well as state and national units. “It is small wonder, therefore, that taxes of all types, supporting local, state and national governments, now are equal to 23.6 per cent of the na­ tional income," it continued. “Sixty-three per cent of the huge tax burden for these governments Is paid by everyday consumers in hid­ den taxes, against which the commis­ sion is fighting through non-polltical local women's groups in more than 2,500 communiites throughout tbe country. These indirect levies are drawn from the people as a whole through increased prices of every purchase." —Barry county's newest test well in a nearly continuous search for oil had been driven to a depth of 375 feet.

The meeting was opened by singing America, after which Rev. Bassett led in prayer. The speaker for the morning was Rev. Webb, formerly of Muskegon, now of Hastings. His subject was "The High Cost of Low Living." Mr. Haas, district 4-H advisor, spent Friday afternoon at the school in an effort to-arouse interest in a 4-H Handicraft club for Nashville. Twenty boys and girls expressed a desire for the work,tand further plans are under way. WORK PROGRESS ADMINISTRA­ TION RECREATION EXHIBIT Again the Glasgow Estate made it possible /or us to show some of the work that is being done at the Re­ creation room in the Nashville school. Those of you who have visited the previous exhibits have an opportunity to judge the progress we have made in the arts and crafts. In wood work, beginning with such things as book ends, comer cup­ boards, footstools, tie holders, etc., we now are making smoking stands, end tables, radio benches, "magazine racks, etc., the most of which would look good in any home. Tbe reconditioning of old discarded chairs has taken first rank in inter­ est. Many chairs have been refinish­ ed with cane or reed seats or back as the case may be. In basketry, until recently we have worked with plain fiber, but now we are using reed as well, and doing some in bright colors which are pret­ ty as well as useful.. ’ Leather craft has been added to our program. The making of key cases, pocketbooks, purses, brief cases, In­ dian moccasins, etc., is receiving .con­ siderable interest (I wish to take this opportunity to thank all those who have contributed in any way toward making our pro­ gram the success it has attained.

During 1938. the Farm Security Administration made loans to seven­ ty-five additional Barry county farm tumilies who were unable to secure adequate credit foj livestock, feed, machinery and other necessary farm and home operation requirements, reports Allen W. Cox, FSA county aupeiwteqr, Hastings, Mich. Addi­ tional’loons were also made to fifteen .amides who had received loans dur­ ing 1936-37, but who needed to en­ large their business, or needed more credit because of death of livestock or some other cause. Practical farm and home manage­ ment plans providing for maximum production on the farm of the fam­ ily’s living supply, as well as crop and livestock programs that provide the greatest net cash Income, have been worked out by each FSA bor­ rower and his wife, with the aid of the supervisor. All loans are based on plans designed to meet the indi­ vidual family’s needs and tbe type of farm operated. . As a productive farm, and satis­ factory rental arrangements are among the primary requirements for an FSA loan assistance in working out improved leases and rental agree­ ments on a written basis, has been extended to all borrowers. These written' agreements, designed to im­ prove the relationship between land­ owners and renters, not only contri­ bute to the security and stability of the tenant, but at the same time aid in stimulating good farm manage­ ment and soil conservatism. At the present time there appears to be a lack of good farms available for rent­ ers who are not on places that are capable of producing a living for the renter. The FSA can be of service in helping to locate renters on suit­ able farms and aid in working out the rental agreement between landowner and tenant ,if landowners will Inform us about farms they have available, Mr. Cox said. * A check of the records shows that during 1938, $60,540 has been loaned to low income farmers of Barry coun­ ty. and payments on all Ioans, during the year, have amounted to $9,665.88. The total amount of all loans made during the time the FSA has been functioning (since 1935) is $111,175, and the total amount of repayments has been $21,115.99. Most loans are made on a repay­ ment schedule of five years with the first payment coming due one year from the time the loan is granted. The loans made in 1938 have no pay­ ments due yet, although many dollars have been repaid on them. There are a few delinquent cases at the present time that may have to be li­ quidated because the borrowers have not kept faith with their program as it was planned with the county sup­ ervisor. There are others that will need a longer period of time to repay their loans, but are making a contin­ uous progress, as shown by their farm account books. Many borrow­ ers are repaying their loans more rap­ idly than their schedule calls for, proving the value of planning and supervision. Mr. Cox says that at the present time loans are being made to farm tenants and owners who have failed to obtain adequate credit through other agencies, altnough applications are being made in greater number than it possible to make loans. ( LOVER LEAF ELECTS AND HAS POTLUCK The Clover Leaf class met with Mrs. Coy Brumm on Friday evening for a 7 o’clock potluck supper and annual election which occupied most of the evening; the balance passed quite informally . Mrs. Grace Brumm was elected president. Mrs. Pauline Lykins vice president. Mrs. Geneva Brumm secretary, Mrs. Margaret Hecker treasurer, and Mrs. Mary Mater corresponding secretary. MRS.

Traffic on the >Ute terrten at the Straits of Mackinac declined during 1938 for the first time in six years. Highway Commissioner Murray D. VanWagoner announced a reduction of 72 per cent in the number of ve­ hicles transported last year compar­ ed with 1937. The traffic volume amounted to 255,068 against 2174.749 the year before. The number of pas­ sengers dropped from 467,842 to 433,­ 322 while receipts were down from *400,895 to *409.368. Despite the decline, the traffic vol­ ume was the second highest in his­ tory, the 1937 volume being the pre­ vious high.

Larger trucks are being equipped with two rear blinker lights flashing alternately and continuously while a single light of this type is being in­ stalled on the smaller trucks.

Merle Scott THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1939 Farming A survey made by the In 1939. Dairymen’s League News indicates that the bulk of farmers, farm leaders and agricul­ tural economists believe that agricul­ ture faces a better year in 1939—and tiiat marketing cooperation will be a dominant factor in the improvement. Typical comment comes from Na­ tional Grange Master, I* J. Taber, who says "Organization remains the challenge of farmers everywhere, and especially dairymen." The Dairymen’s League Cooperative association is a fine example of ag­ gressive, business-like marketing or­ ganisation. A pioneer in the great New York milk shed, it has success­ fully preached the gospel of self-help to tens of thousands of farmers. It has been a strong Influence in obtain­ ing favorable agricultural legislation. And It has earned nation-wide credit for the consistent progress it has made on behalf of its members. tional law and fraternity are not merely or. their way out; they have gone. Treaties already ^are worth­ less; international law has ceased to exist except in unimportant matters; the methods and customs of so-called civilized warfare are Ignored. To count on restoring those desirable things is not only futile but danger­ ous; for the world is heeding inevit­ ably into war. and henceforth nothing but force counts for anything—either the actual use of force, or the ability to use it The United States is singularly fortunate in its position, but by no means immune or isolated from the general world conflict We can pro­ tect ourselves better than other great nations, and we can provide force to use when needed. That is because we have oceans on each side, because we are not overpopulated for we have more wealth and resources than any other nation, and because we do not have to maintain great land forces. Therefore we can, without a ruinous drain on our strength, create strong­ er naval and air forces than any oth­ er nation or group of nations. We are in the uniquely advantageous posi­ tion of being able to wage long-dis­ tance warfare, on the water and in the air, without having to wagp close-up warfare with great armies on land. Unless we are first beaten on the water and in the air. no foreign soldier could ever step upon our soil. Thus we may consider ourselves immune from actual invasion at pres­ ent. perhaps for a long time. But that does not mean we should be im­ mune from the operations of a group of conquering nations that had domi­ nated the rest of the world. Unless we have both the ability and the stamina to stop them, they may close the world’s markets to us. drive our merchant marine from the seas, ab­ sorb South America, and establish their military power so close to us that the advantages of our natural Isolation would be lost. With German-Italian naval bases and air bases in northern South Am­ erica or the West Indies, we should be like the European nations of today with a great enemy close at hand. It would make the protection of the Panama Canal very difficult and ex­ pensive, perhaps Impossible, and it would bring air and submarine war­ fare to our very doors. It is absolutely vital to our whole future, in all the centuries to come, that aggressive European powers ac­ quire no foothold in South America. We must prepare sufficient force to prevent it, and we must use that force whenever it is necessary. In plainer English, we must contem­ plate the clear possibility of war to keep ourselves safe and dominant in the Western Hemisphere. That truth may be unwelcome, but it is as plain as day. And let no optimist delude himself with the idea that such a war would be what he is accustomed to think of as a "defensive" war. A defensive war to prevent Hitler from absorb­ ing South America would not be fought in South America or in Amer­ ican waters; it might be fought in France or Belgium, in the North Sea or the Mediterranean. It would be fought wherever a war starts in which our safety and welfare demand that Germany be defeated. Naturally it is vitally important to us that we should have strong demo­ cratic allies in the world. Thus if France and England were at war with Germany, it would be vitally im­ portant to us that Germany should not conquer them and thus leave us alone in the world without effective help. Therefore we may as well dis­ miss the idea that we **never again will get mixed up in any European conflict." If Germany fights France and England we almost certainly shall be forced to take part in it, just as we were forced to take part in 1917—not to help them in their war, but because it will be our war. Greatest We doubt If half the peo­ ple—maybe not that many Of AU. —realize what the great­ cst issue er .problem for the American people really is. It is hard to see because it is too big. We are used tc. focnswing our eyes on smaller ano. nearer things; we do not easUy get' interested in bigger and more distant ones. We also have been smug, op­ timistic and confident for a hundred and fifty years and it is disagreeable to think about new and strange perils or burdens. But this greatest of all things is facing us so close that we can see the whites of its eyes. It is the foreign problem. In yesterday’s issue we printed on this page long articles on that sub­ . ject by two of the most outstanding political writers in America—Walter Lippman and Dorothy Thompson They were quite long; maybe you didn’t read them. If so. hunt up yes­ terday's Telegram and do so. If you think they are hard reading, or per­ haps a bit dull, just reflect that about eighteen centuries ago in the Emper­ or Hadrian’s time, when the Roman Empire was so powerful, peaceful and comfortable, the average Roman found certain books and speeches a bit dull. Those were the books and speeches that told the Romans of that generation about the growing pressure ot powerful militarized peo­ ples to the north and east of the em­ pire—the peoples who soon were to ovet whelm the empire and obliterate it. In this generation we are approach­ ing another world crisis—the great­ eat since the fall of the Roman Em­ pire, though vastly different in char­ acter. The issue is whether a group of despotic military nations shall subdue the great democratic nations and dominate the world. It is a big­ ger matter than the overthrow of the Roman Empire because it affects the whole world and involves vastly more people. France. Italy, Germany. Great Britain and Japan each has now more population than the Roman Em­ pire ever bad. The United States has twice as many people as any of them, and so has Russia; either one has more than the whole world contained in the year 1 A. D. The British Em­ pire has more people than the whole world contained even as late as 300 years ego; so has China. The world’s population has quadrupled in the last 300 years; it has doubled in the last century alone. That fact is the cause of the world crisis that is now well started. There are too many people to live comfort­ ably and peaceably. All the desirable land is occupied, most of it overpopu­ lated. The highly developed indus­ trial nations think they can continue to expand their trade and keep up their standard of living only by domi­ nating other peoples and taking mar­ kets away from their rivals. That is exactly what they are proceeding to do. under the leadership of Germany, Italy and Japan. Nothing could be more fatuous than The role that we shall play in such the doctrine of pacifism in the world a war will be the kind of role that many hoped we could play before we fraternity, unaelflshneas, self-deter- ।entered the last one.

A carenful study of this definition constitutes an important step toward intelligent enlightened faith and spiritual under­ standing. One who has gained this spiritual concept of God—and it is within the reach of all who seek it with sincerity— will begin to perceive the significance of the Scriptural statement (Genesis 1:27), "God cre­ ated man in his own image." He will see that God is not a God afar off. but is the very source of his own true selfhood; that man, the likeness of God, must in very truth be spiritual and perfect. Christ Jesus brought the message of man’s perfection to a materially darkened world. Mrs. Eddy’s discov­ ery that his teachings demonstrated the Science of being wakens a desire to study more closely and intelligent­ ly his words and works.

He expected his disciples to prove what he had taught them, and he made strong demands upon their faith. The Bible records that, having stilled a storm whose violence had caused great fear among them, he asked (Luke 825). "Where is your faith?” Did not this question imply that enlightened faith, or spiritual understanding, would have enabled the disciples themselves to quiet the tempest? And does it not further imply that we too. through spiritual­ ized thinking, may prove our domin­ ion over all discordant conditions?

The "no" answer, held In the President's other hand and con­ cealed behind‘his back. Is bis appoint­ ment of former Congressman Thomas R. Amlic to the Interstate Commerce commission which has control over tlie railroads, whlbh can make or break them. To aid in ruling over one of the greatest business enterprises of the country, the President appoints Arn­ ie who, as a member of Congress, of­ fered an amendment to the Constitu­ tion which would give Congress "the power to enact laws for the owner­ ship. operation and management, through Instrumentalities of the fed­ eral government, of business, manu­ facturing. commerce, industry and banking"; in short, the establishment of a socialistic government Amlie would destroy private ownership of the railroads, have the government take them over and operate them un­ der a dictatorship. He has long been an advocate of “production for use," contending the profit should be taken out of all busi­ ness. ..The Commnlsts. Madam Perkins loudly deciares that she is against Communism and the Communists. Nevertheless for years Harry Bridges and his outfit, who have consistently closed the ports on the West Coast and for a timfe prac­ tically destroyed our foreign com­ merce with the Far East, hide under her skirts. The United States Code provides for the deportation of any alien un­ lawfully here who believes in. advis­ es, advocates or teaches, or who is a member of or affiliated with any or­ ganization which teaches "the unlaw­ ful damage, Injury or destruction of property." It is a matter of common know­ ledge that, under the leadership of Bridges, Pacific Coast ports were so tied up with strikes that thousands of dollars worth of damage resulted and vessels engaged in coastwise and foreign commerce could neither leave ports with cargo nor enter and have their cargo unloaded. Seems strange that Madam Perkins could not get evidence of it. Think any Michigan constable would be able to find the evidence against, and any county prosecutor convict Bridges. Madam Perkins says. "Yes, I do not like the Communists." Her acts show that she lets them operate unham­ pered. The Sit-down Strikes. Equally baffling is the New Deal's attitude toward the sit-down strike. Realizing the sit-down strike is un­ popular. Hopkins, before the Senate committee, said of it. "It was a bad business. ••• illegal." Frank Murphy said 'T do feel sure that the sit­ down strike has now been thoroughly discredited and I believe we have seen the end of It because it is an instru­ mentality that would undermine and destroy the vital rights of the owner­ ship and possession of private prop­ erty." Well. Murphy ought to know. He helped make the sit-down successful in Michigan. But he takes a lot of words to tell us what we all knew and it is a long time from Dec. 31, 1936. when the sit-down strikes be­ gan to Jan. 13, 1939, when he made his public confession before the Sen­ ate committee. Hopkins and Murphy say. "Yes. the sit-down strikes are illegal." But the NLRB holds Industry must re­ employ sit-down strikers and pay them for lost time. 4444444* 4>4>4>4-44*44>4444-4>44>4>4>4>4>4>44>K hardened old lobbyists cou'd "smell trying pork" while kne vote, with the lead switching three times, the resuit. always in doubt, finally ended with the spenders defeated, 47 to 46. It Is a criminal offense for a cor­ poration to contribute to the election of a candidate tot Congress who be­ lieves in protection to business, but here in the nation's capital it seems to be all right to use jobs and money appropriated for relief to influence votes. It is all rather confusing to a fel­ low from the country. Especially is this true when he receives requests to make some attempt to balance the budget and then along comes a de­ mand from the WPA boys, the Workers Alliance and other groups, asking that he vote not only for the >875,000,000 requested by the Presi­ dent, but for >1,050.000.000 to run WPA until next June. Sincerely yours, Clare Hoffman, Your Representative. Children In Court. by Judge Malcolm Hatfield. Types Of Parents. Three boys recently stood in court and illustrated the point that perfect­ ly normal children can become delin­ quent even though they come from widely divergent types of homes. The first youngster came from a splendid home, and became delin­ quent because of a brief laxity of supervision on the part of his par­ ents. The child was permitted to re­ turn to his home, however, after his father and mother were made to re­ alize that they were really capable of correcting the situation, without out­ side support. The second boy a'so came from a! gc-td home environment His par­ ents, however, w’ere unable to control X this child’s conduct because outside J Influences Interfered with their home *♦* discipline. In this Instance it was necessary for the court to assist the 1 parents by calling in the local police : to remove the unwholesome influenc- . es that existed outside the home. ■ £ The third offender was a product ♦ not only of poor parentage, but also V of a vicious environment. Therefore the court was compelled to remove this youngster from his environment ' and place him in an adequate board- J t ing home. Even this procedure would j J not have corrected the symptoms of; *♦* delinquency in the child If he had, **♦ posessed a low intelligence quotient‘ <£♦ which would have prohibited him from expressing an earnest desire to • reform. • I IT Order For Publication.

Prosecutor A. D. McDonald said he would issue a warrant Mon­ day charging Frank Thomas, 21, of Hastings and Kenneth Hawkins, 21, of Hastings vicinity with driving away an automobile without intent to steal. The prosecutor explained that the charge is a misdemeanor. He said he was convinced the youths had no intention of profltinfl from the use of the cars other than to enjoy the free rides. Cars taken by the pair within the past month Included, officers said, those of Thomas Steb­ bins of Grand Rapids, Clyde Wilcox of Hastings, Dr. C. A. E. Lund of Middleville, Theo Kenedy of Hastings and Marshall Norwood of Delton. All the enrs were recovered. A car be­ longing to Fred Stebbins of Hastings, father of Thomas Stebbins, was tak­ en Saturday night from in front of his home. The youths denied using it and it has not been recovered, officers said Sunday night. —Attendants nightly at the Brooks skating rink, Marshall, last week was estimaed at 300 by attendants. Har­ old Brooks owns the property, and in 1926 he conceived the idea of convert­ ing it into a skating rink. So he had the property, about 250 feet square, graded and put in shape for flooding, built a >1500 club house, which is heated and lighted and contains rest and dressing rooms, with a man in charge of the rink and club house, with two full time attendants in Strung criss-cross skating season, over the rink, from one end to the other, are more than 1,000 colored lights, The city electric light and water commission furnishes both water and lights. It requires about 13,000 gallons of water to flood the rink for one coat. It is necessary to flood it a number of times, frequent­ ly as many as 12, before it is in con­ dition for skating. Improvements made by Mr. Brooks this year Include a walk on the south side of the club house with new steps leading to the ice below, new railing and new bench­ es along the north side of the ice, be­ low the club house. —A runaway semitrailer and trac­ tor “showered" 15 tons of furnaces along U816, east of the saranac in­ tersection, injuring two persons and causing a traffic tieup that was not cleared for four hours. The big trail­ er uuuii outfit ftuuig going caai east swung out. out to avoid a truck which was pulling a stalled car out of a ditch along an S-curve. Several cars were parked east of the stalled automobile, watch­ ing the towing job, and when the driver swung the big loau of furnaces to avoid them, the trailer “jackknif­ ed"’ and struck two of the cars.

Jean McKay, 15, of Traverse City, suffered face cuts and had several teeth kocked out. Stanley VanBrocklln, husband of the injured woman, was not seriously hurt. . —An aged Ionia pencil-seller died Sunday and her death would have re­ mained as inconsequential as her life but for the discovery of more than >500 in cash among her possessions. For more than a year, Mrs. Louise Ellen Lee, 77 years old, who lived at the Jack Block, Ionia, was a familiar figure on Ionia's streets. Vending pencils, and ofttimes begging, she be­ came an established part of the street scene. Sunday, she was taken ser­ iously ill in front of the Ionia post of­ fice. Two Ionia girls, Joan and Jean Wilcox, attempted to take her to her room, but the aged woman collapsed in front of the Ionia theater. An am­ bulance took her to the Ionia hospi­ tal, but she was dead before admit­ tance. Coroner Bruce Falcs and Sheriff Leslie H. Murphy, who inves­ tigated said no Inquest would be held.

Among the Bible citations is this passage (I Chron. 29.11): ’"Thine, O Lord, is the greatness, and the pow­ er, and the glory, for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom.

O’er a dimly-lighted street Rang a voice strangely sweet; Thrilling, in that evening hour, x With its melody and power, Hurrying, careless passers-by. Till they pause and linger nigh ; Borne upon the quiet air Came that sweet and solemn prayer, "Rock of ages, cleft for me, Let me’hide myself in Thee!" Where the singer of the night Sang, unconscious of her might, Came a being—one whose face Sin had robbed of manly grace; With a slow and halting tread, Hope, desire, courage dead; Rising clear, he hears at last, Echo of a buried past: “Rock of ages, cleft for me. Let me hide myself in Thee!" Wan and haggard, faint and weak. Stamp of crime upon his cheek. Stood the wanderer—-one whose life Impress bore of sin and strife; Hiding In the gloom of night,' Shunning every ray of light. Waiting, till the music clear Greets again his listening ear: "Rock of ages, cleft for me. Let me hide myself in Thee!" S!umbering memories in his brain Waken at the sweet refrain; Can the wretch, forlorn, be he Who once stood at Mother's knee, While she sang, as oft she had, When the day was drear and sad Sang the song that in this hour Moves him with convicting power? “Rock of ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee!” Down upon the earth he kneels. Breathing out the grief he feels. In the air of One who knows All the wretched wanderer’s woes; While he there in anguish kne£, Mercy’s soothing balm he felt; Fear and sorrow, doubt and care. Vanish, as he breathes the prayer: "Rock of ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee!" God, in strange, mysterious way. Oft recalls the one astray; Little thought the singer fair, As she voiced her longing there. That her song would thus reclaim Erring man from life of shame. Soul-inspiring is the prayer Lifting doubt and easing care: "Rock of ages, cleft for me. Let me hide myself in Thee!” • (Written by Mr. Murray in 1898, and read by Rev.

Barry County Health Dept. (Last week’s letter.) Many persons who want the ser­ vices of the Barry county Health Dept, have been uncertain as to the method of communication to the Health Dept. Communication by telephone (Hastings 2460), postal, letter, through the schools or through any service committee member will reach the Health Dept and be cared for promptly. The territory covered by the counsellors is as follows: Hastings city—Mrs. Nobles. Tbomapple, Irving, Rutland, Yan­ kee Springs townships—Miss Hirst. Hastings township—Miss Kreider, Miss Neuschaefer. Carlton township — Miss Kreider, Miss Neuschaefer. Baltimore township—Miss Lucek, Miss Neuschaefer. Assyria township — Miss Lucek, Miss Boylin. Woodland, Castleton, Maple Grove townships—Miss Boylin. . Hope, Orangeville Barry Prairie­ ville townships, Kellogg Agricultural district—Mrs. Jeffers. Johnstown township—Miss Lucek, Mrs. Jeffers. The entire county—Mr. Roth Sani­ tarian. Assistants, Mr. Diddams and Mr. Greene. During Miss Boylin’s absence Miss Kreider will serve in Woodland and Castleton townships, and Miss Lucek in Maple Grove township and Nash­ ville. In addition to direct notification to the Health Dept-, requests can be sent in writing or telephoned to the con­ solidated or larger schools in the ter­ ritory’, as the counsellors visit them regularly: these schools are in Hast­ ings. Middleville. Delton, Nashville, Woodland, Freeport, Orangeville, and the Kellogg Agricultural school near Hickory Corners. One of the contributions of the Service committee is to inform the counsellors of problems in their com­ munities; a list of the members and the local school district each one rep­ resents will be published in next week’s edition. The sanitarians. A. A. Roth, Mr. Diddama and Mr. Greene, can best be reached by direct communication with t>e Health Dept Questions re­ lating to food inspection milk haul­ ing, home and school sanitation, wat­ er testing, and matters of like inter­ est. should be referred directly to them. Various professional short courses of interest are soon to be attended by Barry county residents. The first of a series of unusually fine courses for dentists is to start Jan. 31st in Ann Arbor. Dr. Jeserick will have charge of the two weeks course at the U. of M. Dr. W. A. Vance of Nashville and Dr. R.*M. Serijan of Middleville were scheduled to go then, but it’s a matter of choice, and Dr. Vance will go in June instead. The second den­ tists’ course will begin June 1st. Drs. R. G. Finnic and C. P.

(The following is based on a true story of a crash outside Clinton, la., in which a mother was burned to death.) It’s nobody’s business what I drink. 1 care not what my neighbors think, Or how many laws they choose to pass, ru tell the world I’ll have my glass. Here’s one man’s freedom they shall not curb. My right to drink is undisturbed. So be drank in spite of law or man, Then he got into his old tin can, . He stepped on the gas and let it go Down the highway to and fro. He took the curves at sixty miles With bleary eyes and a drunken smile. Not long till a car he had to pass. Then a crash, a scream, and breaking glass. The other car is upside down. About two miles from the nearest . town. The man is free, but his wife is caught. And he needs the help of that drunk­ en sot, Who sits in a maudlin drunken daze. And hears the screams and see the blaze, But too far gone to save a life, By helping the egr from off the wife. The car is burned, and a mother dies. A husband weeps, and a baby cries; And yet there are still some folks who think It’s nobody’s business what I drink. John C. Ketcham of Hastings, former Con­ gressman, former state insurance commissioner and now a marketing expert for a chain store system, has come as close to having the right answer for Mich­ igan's farm problems as any man we have heard. Quality is the keynote of the Ketcham plan. He would have Michigan farmers gain a preferred market by doing what Maine and Idaho potato growers and Washing­ ton apple growers have already de­ monstrated at Michigan’s expense. Michigan apples, properly graded and packed, will outsell a western apple 2 to 1. Idaho and Maine can not pro­ duce better potatoes than does Mich­ igan. But here in Michigan we have not learned to grade and pack for the retail trade, to grade and pack so that consumers demand Michigan products regardless of price. That is part of the Ketcham cure.—Ingham County Nevys. Quality Is The Answer. Uncle Sam Should'"Con»e Home." ' * we would be reasonably waured of Industrial peace in Michigan. If all effort* at mediation failed, the strike may still he called and conducted legally and decently, effec­ tively and without loss of public res­ pect. Picketing would be -permissible and legal but it would be a type of picketing which would not be offen­ sive. Men who had a desire to work would still be able to do so. Strik­ ers would lose neither their jobs nor their standings when the strike even­ tually woh settled. By the same tok­ en, employers would not be permitted to lock out their employes, to interfere with their Union affairs, to urge employes to join a particular Union in preference to another or not to join any Union. Speed-ups would become illegal and so would slow-downs. Both parties to industry would have Well defined rights and be protected in those rights. A very strong phase of the bill pro­ hibits outsiders from picketing or taking part in strikes in Michigan. It was the thugs from Tolelo and else­ where who caused the greatest vio­ lence and trouble at Flint and Detroit. It was they who went from city to city’ fomenting trouble. Had they been kept out of Michigan perhaps we would have had no sit-down strikes and most certainly they would have been of much shorter duration and would have lacked much of the violence that characterized them. Gov. Fitzgerald’s bill looks good. Perhaps it has some flaws which should be corrected. At any rate, it is headed in the right direction and, after careful and prayerful considera­ tion should become the law of Mich­ igan.—Grand Rapids Herald. THURSDAY, FEB. 1. IBM | Y. M. C. A.

He so informed the Senate in three hours of picturesque oratory, deliver­ ed in the best Reynolds tradition with tongue firmly in cheek. "What ought Uncle Sam do?" in­ quired the sandy-haired orator from Asheville, which he frequently tells the Senate is “the little gem city of the mountains." He poured into the question all the solicitude of a mother hen worried about her chicks . There was on answer. “God bless Uncle Sam," Reynolds went on, striding up and down the Senate aisles with many a glance heavenward.

No one was in the building when the roof cav­ ed in. The building. 120 feet long, 60 feet wide and 20 feet high, had sur­ vived storms for nearly a half-cen­ tury because the flat roof had been shoveled clear after heavy snow falls. During this worst snow storm ever known here, Mr. Hamilton was alone in the store.’ His clerk. Erman Hyde, had gone fishing. Mr. Hamilton went home to lunch and told Mrs. Hamil­ ton: "As soon as Erman gets back I'll send him up to shovel the snow off that roof. It’s getting pretty heavy.” When he returned to the store he found a mass of wreckage within the four walls. The center of thB. roof in the older part of the building. 65 by 60 feet, had caved in. Several farm implements, including a tractor and a manure spreader stored near the walls, were not damaged. The partitions of the office, in the front of the store, were pulled apart A shop and feed room, added to the main building in 1909. withstood the weight of the snow. And one of Mr. Hamilton's first acts after dlscovering the accident, was to order remov­ al of snow from the roof. Although apparently no one near the building realized what had happened inside the walls of the hardware, the time of the accident was set at about 1p.m. by Rex Kimber, attendant in a nearby service station. He was outdoors at the time and said he beard a crash but had been unable to discover its cause. Mr. Hamilton will rebuild. SKATING ROLLER SKATING Every Night Except Monday.

O. P. Nominee Michigan Mirror By Gene Alternes A paradoxical situation whereby Michigan, the nation's leading state, has permitted commercial interests to exploit landscape beauty along scenic highways this week prompted Murray D. VanWagoner, state hlgbway commissioner, to propose reme­ dial legislation. In a public statement released this Thursday, VanWagoner reviewed the progress in roadside beautification and declared: "Experience has shown that road­ side projects have invited commercial development which has destroyed the beauty of these projects. The state highway department needs a new weapon in its roadside beautification program. That weapon must be a statute banning grotesque sighs, shacks, etc., along our roadsides. "I favor some type of so-called billboard legislation, broad enough to include hot dog stands, shacks, etc., being introduced in the current ses­ sion of the legislature." Not Punitive Bill. "Such legislation," the commission­ er pointed out. "should have a two­ fold objective. It must protect the beauty of our roadsides. It must be designed to make our highways safer. “It should not be a punitive mea­ sure designed to kill a legitimate business. It should not primarily be a revenue measure. Rather, should it alm at regulation. "Along scenic or tourist routes, commercial boards and signs should be restricted to special zones adjacent to cities and towns. The state high­ way department would be authorized to designate such routes and zones." Safety Of Motorist. Commissioner VanWagoner feels that commercial boards on other highways should be permitted on a se­ lective basis with the state depart­ ment, together with the state police, designating the areas where signs could not be erected. Highway saf­ ety for the public would be the prin­ cipal control factor. Billboards would be regulated un­ der a license plan with the license fee only nominal, such licenses to be is­ sued jointly by the highway commis­ sioner and the state police commis­ sioner. both of whom' would have the right to approve the design of such signs. The proposed legislation also would require "adequate and regular main­ tenance of the signs by the owner." License fees would be used to defray cost of inspections and to further the roadside beautification development. 2. Amend the constitution to per­ mit the governor-elect to appoint the secretary of state, attorney general, auditor general and treasurer in much the manner that the President selects his Cabinet. Plan No. 1 has the enthusiastic support of young Republicans. Its, passage is forecast in both houses of the legllature. Governor Is Busy. While legislative committees were studying new utility commission re­ vision of civil service and some 300 bills, Governor Fitzgerald revealed more of his administrative program for 1939. Developments include: Less midway ballyhoo at the De­ troit State Fair and more emphasis on agriculture and industry. Dr. Lin­ wood W. Snow of Northville succeeds Frank Isbey as manager. Fewer relief workers to administer welfare. Saving in salaries and trav­ eling expenses will approximate $900,000 a year. “Snow White” Film Four Nights At Star Walt. Dbney*a First Full Length Anlmated Film Frl., SQL, Sun. and Mon. Nights. Movie fans are about to have their hopes realized, with the local oppor­ tunity of the four night presentation by Star Theater of "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs." the first Walt. ‘Disney animated film to be made in full feature length in Technicolor, with dialogues, songs, dances, and a complete musical score. This picture, acclaimed by all who have seen it, was three years in the making and its cost is estimated at $1,500,000. Man­ ager Johnson has secured this film for Friday Saturday. Sunday and Mon­ day nights. The plot of “Snow White" is an adaption of one of the most loved of chc. Grimm Brothers' tales. First published in the early part of the last century, this book has been translat­ ed into every civilized language. Its readers are numbered in the millions. A sterling favorite with generations of Americans, past and present, it is equally popular abroad. Meeting "Snow White.” the dainty, lovable little Princess, on the screen is the same as greeting an old friend one has not seen for years. Her ad­ ventures begin when the wicked Queen, jealous of “Snow White’s bud­ ding beauty, first degrades her to the level of a scullery maid. Even then the Queen’s magic mirror, informs the sovereign that "Snow White." though attired in rags, is still the fairest in the land. The palace huntsman- is ordered to take the Princess to the forest and kill her. Bu'- he permits her to es­ cape. She Is befriended by the pity­ ing birds and animals and finds re­ fuge with the Seven Dwarfs in their woodland home. Thither comes the wicked Queen in the guise of a Witch. "Snow White" eats a bewitched apple given her by her rival, and falls into a death-like slumber. So lovely is she that the dwarfs, instead of bury­ ing their beloved little housekeeper, place he/ in i coffin of glass and gold by which they keep watch. The tiny chaps have already wreaked ven­ geance on the Witch, who has fallen to destruction over a precipice. Then came the handsome Prince, who loved "Snow White" when she was only a scullery maid, awakens her with a kiss, and the sweethearts leave to­ gether for their castle home. Bill Two Years Ago. During the 1937 legislative session at Lansing a bill was introduced in both the House and Senate under sponsorship of the Garden Clubs of Michigan. Although public opinion was strong for its enactment, as evi­ denced by resolutions passed by wo­ mens' clubs, civic groups and other organizations. the measure was amended to death and was finally buried in committee. At that time there was a legislative tendency to seek revenue from bill­ boards, rather than to control them. Commissioner VanWagoner’s latest move in behalf of highway scenery protection is but another step in a de­ partment program designed to pro­ mote Michigan as a tourist state. Highways have been relocated to bring them closer to the Great Lakes shorelines. Natural stands of timber along scenic roadsides have been con­ served through the purchase of right­ of-way as wide as 400 feet. ‘ This is only a sketchy outline of Scores pf roadside parks have been created.

On Monday evening occurred an important event in the community’s social life, the annual Father and Son banquet of the Community Brother­ hood. And an outstanding event it was in every particular. Carried out in its entirety at the Evangelical church, there wasn't a dull moment for the 200 "Fathers and Sons” there assembled. Valentine decorations gave an add­ ed attractiveness to the tables, where an appetizing supper was served by Amos Wenger and his supper squad. Winfield Line, of the Line stores, who visited Korea, the native land of Mrs. Line, last summer to visit her family and do some sightseeeing, was the main entertainer showing motion pictures taken by himself. Dr. Lofdahl made an exceptionally fine toastmaster, and the talk for the "Fathers” by Earl Olmstead, and for the ’ Boys" by George Belson, were very fine. Musical selections, which were very good, were by Ennis Fleming and Edward Nash. Billy Hynes, Billy Hess, Robert Webb and Johnny Petti­ bone.

This is as unreasonable as whipping a girl because she has the measles. Judges realize that delinquency frequently starts when parents resort to improper emotional training and give their children the wrong kind of assignments and duties. A personal­ ity improperly trained usually getsinto mischief. If an Hi-trained child can be persuaded to become interest­ ed in some worth while undertaking, he will usually work at it with all his sincerity. The great majority of all parents, whose children are brought into court, usually have the best intentions in the worid, but ironically enough, they are unable to execute them. Barely a day passes without some of these parents appearing in court They are unable to realize that their own acts have caused their children to become delinquent Instead of ac­ cusing themselves for the lack of training and understanding which they failed to give their children, they attempt to blame everyone else for their shortcomings. After the court psychiatrist points out the er­ rors they have made, they no longer appear to be utterly bewildered, and are1 consequently able to cope with hidden Influences which are causing their children to act in an anti-social manner. These parents, who for­ merly endeavored to shield the short­ comings of a child, now act on the recommendations of the psychiatrist Fathers and mothers finally realize that the court is their friend and that they can achieve the desired results by working together. Auto Tag DeMtae Final. Kelly Warns. If the motor vehicles now register­ ed in Michigan are to "get under the wire" by March 1st, the deadline for the purchase of 1939 license plates, or half year permit plates, an average of 56.000 motorists per day will have to purchase their plates after Febru­ ary 16, it is estimated by Harry J1'. Kelly, Secretary of State. With only ten days left in which to purchase plates, Kelly stresses the fact that Section 6A of Act 279 of the Public Acte of 1937 prohibits any offlceer or municipality from extend­ ing the time to purchase new platee. The 1939 plates which were placed on sale last October 27th have been selling at the rate of less than 3.000 per day. The total plates sold by the middle of February is estimated at 400,000, with total registrations of 1,558.286. ."It will tax the department to is­ sue 50,000 sets of plates pei day. but if the bulk of the applicants come in the last few days, every one can’t be served.” Kelly said, adding, "The deadline is March 1st, but if too many people wait for it, it simply won’t be possible to handle the busi­ ness.” Kelly has ordered all branch offices in the metropolitan areas to remain open until 9 p. m. to take care of the last minute buyers.

To the qualified electors of the vil­ lage of Nashville (Precinct No. 1). state of Michigan: Notice is hereby given that in con­ formity with the "Michigan Election Law," I, the undersigned Village Clerk, will, upon any day, except Sunday and a legal holiday, the day of any regular or special election or primary election receive for registra­ tion the name of any legal voter in said village not already registered who may apply to me personally for such registration. Provided, howev­ er, that I can receive no names for registration during the time interven­ ing between the second Saturday be­ fore any regular, special, or official primary election and the day of such election. The last day for General Registra­ tion does not apply to persons who vote under the Absent Voters’ Law.

The President erroneously assumed that he could disregard the Senate, but he found once again, as he did when he attempted to pack the Su­ preme Court, that he would not be permitted arbitrarily to ignore the constitutional provisions; hence the Senate by a vote of 72 to 9 rejected his appointment Neither the President nor the Sen­ ate is the "big boss." Under the Constitution, they act together, or not at all. At the very beginning of our his­ tory as a nation, two appointments, one to the Navy, one as Minister to France, made by the Father of our country. President Washington him­ self. were rejected by the Senate. Washington, abiding by the constitu­ tional provisions, recognizing the right of the Senate, qffietly withdrew him nominations and that without any criticism of Senate action. FIVE IN 4-H WIN ESSAY HONORS Five boys and girls in 4-H club work in Michigan have been named winners by a Detroit committee for their recent work in submitting an essay on the subject, "Where and How Are Livestock) Prices Estab­ lished?" William E. Dickison, Jr.. Sault Ste. Marie, takes top honors and a watch for best presentation of the answers. The essay contest was announced in December during conduct of the 9th annual Michigan 4-H Livestock Show at the Detroit stock yai ds. The show and essay competition received coop­ eration of the 4-H staff of Michigan State college. Judges were Howard Porter, super­ intendent of the yards, and Walter Chambers, secretary of the Detroit Livestock Exchange. Other awards in the essay contest named John Houseman Britton, for second place; Bruce Stine. Cass City, third; Arlene Marshall, Concord, fourth; and Patricia Bolander, La­ peer, fifth. The Dickison boy’s essay pointed out that supply and demand prove the two most important factors in deter­ mining prices. Weather is credited by the boy for influencing both demand and supply. Business conditions in domestic mar­ kets and the effects of exports and condition abroad also are pointed out in the essay as additional factor*. Some Sault Ste. Marie humor creeps into the winning essay. The writer points out that farmers as yet have been unable to develop a hog that to all pork chops, ham or bacon, or a steer that is all steak. It still is true that one-fourth of a beef fre­ quently brings as much as the other three-fourths of a carcass. Fifty-BllUoa-DoUar Debt. A federal statute provides that the United States shall not go in debt more than forty-five billion dollars (345.000.000,.000). Now comes the Secretary of the Treasury and tells us that a fifty billion dollar debt will not be dangerous. Quite evidently the President in­ tends to continue to spend more than the nation receives and to ask Con­ gress to raise the debt limit. It wan in 1932, when the national debt was $20,900,000,000. that the President told us that if we continued to spend, the nation would be bankrupt. This last statement from his Secretary of the Treasury shows that he antici­ pates that, by the end of his term or shortly thereafter, that debt will be more than doubled.

Dept Of Conservation A cbane of nearly four hours was rewarded near Pinckney recently with the bagging of a 30 pound coyote measuring 54 inch'll from nose to the tip of its tall. Coyotes have been uncommon in this part of the state in recent years. Conservation Officer John EL Gun­ derson reports that the animal, one of the predatory species on which the state pa ya a bounty, was cold-tracked for about three and a half hours by Gerald Reason, Orville Hanes and Ed­ mund Hanes before their dogs were started on the chase. Once the dogs were in pursuit the coyote was over­ taken in 20 minutes. It was shot by Edmund Hanes. The state department of conserva­ tion is conducting experiments in the propagation of minnows to determine which species are moat valuable as food for game fish. Barry Co. Health Drpt. (Last week’s letter. ) On Friday, Feb. 3, Dr. Harkness, Miss Neuschaefer, Mr. Greene, Mr. Diddams and Mrs. Jeffers accompa­ nied the November-December Kellogg Foundation short course students st Michigan State college, to East Lans­ ing. At noon the entire group of students from Aliegan, Barry and Eaton counties had luncheon togeth­ er. following which each county form­ ed permanent organizations. The of­ ficers elected for the Barry county group are: President—Robert Crockford. Vice president—Wilma King. Secretary—Mary Ann Brodbeck. Treasurer—Philip Scott. The purpose of tbe group is to fos­ ter closer relationships among the young people of the county and |o provide recreational leadership In lo­ cal districts.

Information relative to the obtaining of the materials can be secured from committee members. Game investigators are keeping a close check on the yarding of the Michigan deer herd where possible and especially in areas where the win­ ter food supply is known to be low. They report that the whitetails inhab­ iting the lower peninsula have about four weeks more to worry through while those in the upper peninsula will not be "out of trouble" for an­ other six weeks. A prolonged winter, at course, may extend the season in both instances. Up to this week, at least, weather conditions have been generally favor­ able for the deer. Although those in the overbrowsed areas have undoubt­ edly lost weight and would not have the greatest endurance to withstand severe conditions, they have been able thus far to find enough food to pre­ vent heavy losses. In the northern part of the lower peninsula, the deer are pretty well scattering although perhaps staying nearer the yards than in summer, ac­ cording to the latest reports received from field workers. In the upper pen­ insula, particularly the northern part, the deer are bunched closer but not in any heavy concentration, such as is usually the case at this time of year. The storm which occurred slightly more than a week ago in tbe Esca­ naba river tract was not sufficiently severe to change conditions seriously. The snow which fell previously in other parts of the state was either not heavy enough or did not remain in any great depth long enough to seriously affect the deer adversely. The principal danger, as pointed out by the game investigators, is from deeper snow and storms occurring be­ tween now and spring in those areas where there is not enough food with­ in their reach to sustain a large herd. ; guardian issued. | '£st.

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 23,1939 A Halo Around To do good work we should hang a halo around our We should idealize our daily task. work. Whether one is setting type, selling goods, designing furniture, or managing a business, he should do his work in the spirit of a man creating a masterpiece. Antonio Stradivari, the Italian violin maker, produced with pains­ taking care over one thousand vio­ lins. Over 500 of them still exist. Although Stradivari died two hundred years ago, so well did he do his work that improvement upon the instru­ ments he created has proved impos­ sible. Stradivari passed along to us in a poem his philosophy of work. In the lines he penned, we may glimpse the secret of his power to do his task superbly well. When any master holds ’Twixt chin and hand a violin of mine, He shall be glad that Stradivari lived, Made violins, 'and made them of the best. For while God gives them skill, I give them instruments to play upon, God choosing me to help Him. If my hand slacked. I should rob God—since He is fullest good— Leaving a blank instead of vio­ lins. * He could not make Antonio Stradivari’s violins Without Antonio. —The Silver Lining. If Little Business—the backbone of the American econ­ omic system—is to meet Big Business on equal grounds, the econ­ omist, Roger Babson asserts, coop­ eration among small business men is absolutely essential. Mutual groups are already operating for cooperative purchasing, he points out, and such joint efforts should be extended to ad­ vertising and to sharing brands with one another. He gives five advantages of the small business man. over the city business man as follows: Smaller overhead costs. 2. Ability quickly to change. Lower wage rate. Management by owners. 5. Public sympathy and cooperation. Babson 8®ys:.. Gov. Fitzgerald says with positiveness that he wants Civil Service but that he wants a Civil Service which is reasonable and far less ex­ pensive in its administration than the present set-up has proved. The Gov­ ernor urges that the bill which was drafted by his study commission headed by Prof. Pollock of the Uni­ versity of Michigan be enacted in place of the bill which was put thru the 1937 legislature for partisan pur­ poses. Says the Governor: "If we had such a Civil Service Act, had not the effort to blanket everybody from top to bottom been so studied, there would be less talk in the legislature today of doing away with Civil Ser­ vice entirely." In that statement the Governor doubtless is entirely corWants Civil Service. There can be no question but that the present Civil*Service Act was framed with the deliberate intent to freeze in their jobs and their offices the administration and party adher­ ents who drafted the bill. Just as an example of the silliness of the present Act: The Governor himself may not •elect his own private and confiden­ tial secretary except through the Civil Service board. So with many heads of departments. They cannot dismiss the secretaries which have been handed down to them from the previous administration except thru the doubtful and entirely undesirabk means of preferring charges, holding a public hearing and perhaps getting rid of the Incumbent for cause. Could there be anything more unreasonable or more ridiculous than that the Gov­ ernor or any department head must have as h*s confidential secretary a pww« of the opposing political faith? This is only one of the many ridi­ culous features of the present Civil Service Act. Gov. Fitzgerald says that the bill written by the study comm’raion which he appointed would have avoided many of these features and would have been far less expen­ sive in operation. If that is the case it would be well In this legislative session to repeal the present Act and substitute for it that written by the Pollock commission. Once Michigan is given a good, reasonable and nonpoliical Civil Service Act all talk of abandoning the principle of Civil Servce will disappear. The principle is correct. The present Act is faulty and the administration of it has been, it seems, not a little political, unrea­ sonable and highly expensive.—Grand Rapids Herald. . What You Twenty-eight cents out Pay. of every dollar you spend goes for government tax­ es, according to thorough-going re­ port just issued by the Illinois Fed­ eration of Retail Associations. That 57.85 your wife spends on a new cot­ ton dress doesn't all go for dress. No, indeed, >2.20 for that sum goes for “government.’’ This calculation has taken account of over 125 different kinds of taxes. They include taxes paid on such di­ verse articles as overalls, cameras, playing cards, automobiles, dresses, dishes, furniture, gasoline and tobac­ co. . Less than half the taxes are vis­ ible. The rest are invisible—the socalled “painless” taxes. Those are the various excise, license and sales taxes which arej spread out over the cost of everything and which every­ body pays. The visible taxes arc spread out too—the taxes on proper­ ty in incomes. You can’t dip water out of any part of a pool without low­ ering its level everywhere. Taxes fall upon the just and the unjust. They hit the workingman (as Mr. Roosevelt told us back in 1932) harder than the business man. The higher the taxes go. the more money will be taken from the poor man—and from his children, and from his children's children • High taxation dries up private cap­ ital and slows down buying in every business. Slower buying turns men out of jobs and builds up relief rolls. More taxes put the brakes on the turning wheels of business. And 28 per cent braking is enough to stop many wheels from turning. Business is like an automobile—it can’t run freely with the brakes set tight. Business has to have free wheeling to get up any speed.—Ad­ rian Daily Telegram. Folks, as a general thing, never want to hear disagreeable facts. That is one reason why dictatorships have become the vogue. As Gilbert Ches­ terton puts It, "As fatigue falls on a community, the citizens are less in­ clined for that eternal vigilance which has truly been called the price of liberty • • •’’. Several Rotarians are still grumbling over statements made at a recent luncheon by an Oli­ vet college professor on the new low of the affairs of the social order. Ed­ ward Gibbons in his, "The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire," gives five reasons for the collapse of this world-empire. The reasons ac­ cording to the famous historian are strictly social. Here they are con­ densed for us by Joseph Fort Newton, distinguished clergyman, in his daily syndicated column in the Free Press: First, the rapid increase of divorce, undermining the dignity, stability and sanctity of the family, which is the basis of society. Second, higher and higher taxes and the spending of public money on bread and circuses. Third, the mad craze for pleasure, sport, becoming more exciting and more brutal every year. Fourth, the increase of armaments for war. pil­ ing up weapons when the real en­ emies were within. Fifth, the decay of religion—faith faded into a mere form, empty and impotent in life. Isn't this diagnosis a rather accur­ ate and concise description of the so­ cial order of our own time ? The rouble with most of us we don't want to hear the facts and when we ■ do we forthwith find fault with the person who is attempting to improve conditions by telling us the truth. We stick our heads in the ssnd pile nd salve our consc’ence by calling the crusader a crackpot, communist tacking "coffee dangerous women ' who stand in line before stores seeking to buy a few coffee beans to insure a hot drink for break­ fast The nazi government found noth­ ing sinister in coffee drinking until recently when its financial arrange­ ment with Brazil, which covered the purchase of coffee, lapsed. Now the government is unable to get enough coffee, so it is attempting to dis­ courage the use of it. After drink­ ing coffee all their lives the German people are being a bit difficult about the shortage—especially the house­ wives. In Berlin the women have lined up in long queues before stores clamor­ ing for coffee. Unable to stop the clamor by peaceful means the nazi police have been ordered to arrest of­ fenders. That isn’t working so well because a woman in jail is unable to care for her children or keep house for her nazi husband. So they are being released and subjected to bitter attacks in the controlled areas. • The Germans have had to give up many things in the interest of Hit­ ler's nazi program. Finally the wo­ men seem to be drawing the line. They want their empty coffee cupe filled and not with a mixture of cof­ fee and roasted barley, a substitute remedy provided by the government .If Hitler knows his business he’ll do something about that coffee situa­ tion immediately. An ample supply of coffee is a small price to pay to quiet an army of irate-women. (For further enlightenment the fuehrer should read some of the chapters on the American and English experiences with suffragettes.) How quickly business problems would be sol­ ved if mankind under­ stood the law of divine Principle, and utilized this understanding! When the law of God is . spiritually under­ stood. it can be demonstrated with absolute certainty, and It will be found applicable to every human ex­ perience, individual and collective. Christian Science proves the practi­ cality of divine law. Mary Baker Ed­ dy, the Discoverer and Founder of this blessed truth, In "Rudimental Divine Science" (p. 1). defines Chris­ tian Science as ‘‘the law of God. the law of good, interpreting and demon­ strating the divine Principle and rule of universal harmony." The law of divine Principle was made manifest in the following exper­ ience. A man who was unjustly threatened with a sit-down strike at his place of business, sought the help of a Christian Science practitioner. He was assured that he had nothing to fear, aince God's law of harmony is eternally operative; that there is but one governing law operating in the unobstructed realm of Mind, and that the forces of materialism are therefore without entity or reality. The understanding of God's law was applied, with the result that on the day when the strike was to have taken place, perfect harmony reigned at his place of business. When evil was recognized to be but an imper­ sonal belief in a power apart from God, presuming'to Invade and destroy His government—which it cannot do —the error vanished into nothing­ ness. There is no circumstance, no injustice in the world, empowered to defeat the law of infinite Mind. One who places his trust wholeheartedly in God may echo the words of the Psalmist (Psalms 118.6), "The Lord is on my side; I will not fear; what can man do unto me?" Christ Jesus the master Christian, understood the law of God, divine Principle, and he never deviated in his reflection of Love. When he was brought before Pilate, charged with being a malefactor, Pilate asked (John 19:10), “Enowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee?" Jesus answered simply (19:11), "Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above." The Master's conscious atone-ment with the Father enabled him spiritually to rise above the supposi­ titious power of material sense, or material so-called law. He annulled every material law through his un­ derstanding of spiritual law, and thus he proved and demonstrated the eternality of Life, God. The same spiritual laws which Christ Jesus demonstrated are oper­ ative today. Those who, through the illumination of Christian Science, are endeavoring to follow in his foot­ steps. are gaining the same spiritual understand'ng, and learning to do the works that he did. Of such the Mas­ ter said (John 14:12), "He that believeth on me. the works that I do shall he do also: and greater works than these shall he do." And Mrs. Eddy writes in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures’" (p. 326): “If we wish to follow Christ, Truth Divine Law Operative. Y. M. C. A.

Jesus said, ‘He that believeth on me. the works that I do shall he do also.' He. who would reach the source and find the divine remedy for every ill. must not try to climb the hill of Science by some oth­ er road. AU nature teaches God’s love to man, but man cannot love God supremely and set his whole affec­ tions on spiritual things, while lov­ ing the material or trusting in it more than in the spiritual." A sci­ entific understanding of God's su­ premacy quickens one's ability to de­ monstrate spiritual law in the healing of all manner of discordant condi­ tions. How urgent is the world’s present need of workers with spiritual vi­ sion—consecrated, active workers, to prove the practicability of the teach­ ings of Christ Jesus! Christian Sci­ entists know that the rules of divine Principle are demonstrable; and those who set their "whole affections spiritual things" are endeavoring to carry on the healing ministry of Christ Jesus. . While the material senses seem bear witness to the turbulent exist­ ence of wars, strikes, international unrest, fear of human power, and man-made laws, the Christianly scien­ tific worker knows that the leaven of Truth is silently, steadily purifying human consciousness, thereby over­ coming the beliefs of sin, disease, and death. The understanding of Truth is permeating human consciousness, strengthening faith in spiritual law and uniting men through the acknow­ ledgment of one omnipotent Mind, un­ folding peace and harmony.

THURSDAY, MARCH 2, 1939 him and pterced the scanty clothing of his ragged little army. They un­ derstood from that picture some of the travail through which this coun­ try was brought into being. The de­ bunkers say Washington did not cross the Delaware in that fashion. Wc prefer to believe he didBut sup­ pose he did not. What of it and what harm waa done by believing it and what good was done by seeking to disprove it That picture is an his­ toric one and well conceived. It has played no small part in making Youth appreciate the sacrifices of those men who gave us our liberties. Then, too, the Youth of yesteryear were told the story of the hardships endured by Washington’s army at Valley Forge and of how Washington, when things looked blackest, knelt in tae snow to pray. That story and the pictures of it which used to mark the pages of our histories went far to­ ward teaching Youth how much it owed to those men and more than all, teaching that Washington was not too great man to pray. The de­ bunkers say he didn’t kneel in the snow at Valley Forge. We prefer to believe that Washington knelt, not once but many times, during those dark hours, that he asked God for guidance and strength and courage and wisdom and victory and that his prayers were answered, for soon af­ ter he won a victory which turned the tide of the war. Whether or not the story is true, what harm was done in believing it and in teaching it and what good is done by debunking It? It would be well Indeed if all of us might take example from that story and ourselves kneel more often and pray to the God of our fathers who gave us this land of freedom. It’s time the debunkera themselves were debunked. Their work has been of no service. It has done great harm to Youth and to the world. If these stories really are myths, then what this land needs most is more such myths.—Grand Rapids Herald. OKU Service Ersmlnatinm The U.

Harry F.

No definite count of the number of plates actually lost is possible as some are stolen, others are mutilated in accidents. A duplicate of a lost, mutilated or destroyed passenger or commercial plate, may be secured up­ on filing an affidavit with the secre­ tary of state showing the facta, and the payment of one dollar and the in­ convenience of waiting, for the new plate to be made. Each duplicate plate is designated by the abbrevia­ tion “Dup" on each plate. . f A set of duplicate license plates costa $2.00; municipal duplicate plates cost 25c; dealers pay $15.00 a pair for their first three sets of plates and $5.00 for each additional set, but subsequent duplicates do not indicate losses, but rather the desire to equip additional cars with dealers plates for demonstration purposes. The de­ partment of state collected $39,491.­ 25 in 1938 from the sale of duplicate plates. Kelly points out that a check of de­ partmental records show that most of the applications for duplicate plates come in the early part of each license year, indicating that those who are going to lose their plates, lose them shortly after relicensing their cars. generate a substance that kills the germs themselves.

United States, the world's largest democracy, is the spe­ cial target of attack. We must ex­ ert every force we have to insure that our government shall continue to function and to exist. In the United States, we have a governmental sys­ tem of checks and balances. This plan has pro.en most effective in providing stabilized government and meeting opposition levelled at the multiple party system ct many other democracies. Since democracies flourish in the light of knowledge and understand­ ing, it is significant that schools have been provided for the training of youth and the re-training of adults. The task is gigantic, requiring the combined efforts of all. The rewards measured in social stability, human happiness and widespread security, are well worth the cost. Never has it been more important that the schoolroom become the practice lab­ oratory for,teaching American ideals and concepts of government — Ex­ cerpts from an address by Dr. Eugene B.

STAFFS A three day overhauling of Mich­ igan's cooperative marketing ma­ chinery by leaders in the state and nation is evident in announcement of the fourth annual Cooperative Man­ agement conference sponsored by the economics department of M. S. C. Dates for the campus sessions at East Lansing are Tuesday, Wednes­ day and Thursday, March 7, 8, 9. Prominent practical problem dally confronting cooperative managers, directors and members of 455 organi­ zations in this state form the basis of topics. Taxes and governmental regula­ tion caused by old age security, un­ employment compensation, and wage and hour legislation are combined the first day with credit problems of working capital down to the lowly “accounts receivable” bugbear of* profits, to give the opening day the title. "Credit Day." Wednesday is Sales Day of the conference. This features effect of quality on sales, how transportation and particularly truck service affect sales and the effect of cdhsumer dis­ tribution by chain stores. These an will offer new developments of the old problem of how a cooperative can obtain sales at a cost that will leave profits. Management Day, closes the con­ ference.

But she does have some remedies that will suit parents and the problem children alike. Unless a home pro­ vides a real playroom, indoor activ­ ity must be confined to quiet play. This can offer a wide scope for the child however. As early as the sec­ ond year many children begin to find delight in imaginative play. Many toys are not needed to carry out their drums tin play. A few of various kinds will serve as a basis for such creative play. Left over household materials such as cartons, spools, cans, cellophane, ribbons and pieces of cloth offer many possibilities for inventive play. Of course a place to keep such materials is imperative. Small sized replicas of actual uten­ sils offer many hours of useful occu­ pation to children. Sets of dishes, I washing equipment, tubs, and ironing board can be included. For the older child (from 6 or 7 on) a work bench with soft wood lumber proves a useful “toy.’’ W^nh^” '' ' Howe of Detroit attended the funeral Mrs.' Orra Wheeler of Jackson'of the,r nePhew' Leon Dttrwln Gray’ Mrs. Orra Wheeler of Jackson) spent Sunday at the Von Fumiss Saturday.

THURSDAY, MARCH 9,1939 Sherman Rog­ ers conducted a survey of his own to find out how much the average employee thinks he gets out of each dollar of income produced by the manufacturer. He spent, three weeks talking to 518 men: 86 men believed that they got less than one cent out of each dollar; 373, including the 86, thought they got leas than five cents. Only four out of the entire 518 thought that they got as much as ten cents out of each dollar. What are the facts? Statistics compiled by the present administra­ tion show that these 518 men were far wrong in their guesses. Out of all the Income received and paid out by manufacturers of the United States, the employee received 84 cents of each dollar! No other system of government equals the American standard of liv­ ing. For instance, here In the Unit­ ed States, the average man has to work only 3 hours and 26 minutes to buy a pair of work shoes. In Great Britain he has to work 5:14 hours; in Germany, 12:13 hours; in Italy, 39:45 hours. The average American can buy more shoes, overalls, potatoes, butter —more of everything with an hour’s work than in any other country in the world. Americj gives us more cents out of the manufacturer’s dollar and therefore, our buying power per hour’s work hits the peak here. Men may have their theories and their dreams but so far the facts prove that Democracy leads thb parade!— The Silver Lining. How Much Does The Employee Get? “Live in a day-tlght compartment," ad­ vised Dr: Osler in an address to a graduating class. This advice is a good prescription for suc­ cessful living. What we become to­ morrow depends upon what we do to­ day. Like the stones in a cathedral, a man's personality is the sum total of his todays. The Sanskrit says: "Today welllived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope." I have just read a book enitled "The Great American Novel.” It is about a young man who. in his early twenties, resolved to write a great novel about America. The book con­ sists of the young man’s diary in which, day after day, he writes his purpose to create the novel. But he never got started. The starting time always was in the future. Almost like magic, twenty years sped away. He failed to grasp today. Many other folks, like this unfor­ tunate man, carry clanking, tortur­ ing chains around their lives—the worries and defeats of yesterday. Today is the only day of which we can be sure. We must put as much into it as we can. We must take as much out of it as we can. Out of our today, we are creating our yester­ days and our tomorrows. — The Friendly Adventurer. Day-Tight Compartments, Importance The role of prayer in Of Prayer, everyday life assumes added significance in view of the current observance of the Lenten season. The forty-day period of fasting and penitence, always an occasion of potent spiritual meaning, becomes doubly so in a day of wars on two continents, political and ec­ onomic upheavals and social uncer­ taintie*. Pulpit speakers often are heard to say that people generally do not pray enough and probably few could be found to dispute this complaint Cer­ tainly prayer never injured anyone, and if there was ever a time for re­ liance on Divine guidance and help, that time is here. Tennyson wrote in his “Mort D'­ Arthur” that “More things artwrought by prayer than this world dreams of.” It is a singular fact that some people think of prayer only as a last resort but it is also true that prayer frequently is answered in a degree and manner far exceeding the hopes of the individual. The February issue of the Nautilus prayer sessions respective homes, and within a short time the problems of each had been solved. The Russian novelist, Fyodor Dos­ toyevsky, at 28 was arrested on po­ litical charges and sent to Siberia. Months of suffering in exile failed tc dim his religious faith or his over­ whelming sympathy for unprivileged mankind. Years later he wrote. “Be not forgetful of prayer. Every time you pray, if your prayer is sincere, there will be new feeling and new meaning in it, which will give you fresh courage, and you will under­ stand that prayer is an education." The pages of history are replete with instances of reliance on prayer In grave public crises. George Wash­ ington and Abraham Lincoln, among other great statesmen, turned to prayer when their responsibilities seemed too great to carry. The late Marshal Foch of France attributed his success as a military leader to frequent prayer. Prayer may be said to belong in the category uf ultra-safe invest­ ments. Its cost is so slight as to be not noticed, and the frequency and magnitude of its dividends often are surprising. The prayer habit is well worth cultivating. As Dryden wrote: "Our vows are heard betimes! and Heaven takes care . To grant before we can conclude the prayer; Preventing angels meet It half the way And send us back to praise who came to pray.'"—Saginaw News. Promote Our attention has been Michigan, called by H. R. Lindsay, secretary of the Escana­ ba Chamber of Commerce, to a ban­ quet which will be held in Washing­ ton some weeks hence to publicize Michigan smelt and other food and farm products. Under the leadership of Congressman Fred Bradley of Rog­ ers City and his secretary. Joseph A. Sturgeon. Gladstone publisher, plans are being made for the All-Michigan Food Products banquet to which will be invited Michigan Congressmen, newspapermen and news reel photo­ graphers. On the proposed menu will be Es­ canaba smelt; cheer? from the Mich­ igan cheese factory at Carney; pota­ toes supplied by the Upper Michigan Potato Growers* association; apples from the Michigan Apple Institute at Bangor; canned cherries and canned spiced peaches from the Michigan Conners’ association at New Era; beans from the Michigan Bean com­ pany at Saginaw: sugar supplied by the Farmers’ and Manufacturers' Beet Sugar association at Saginaw; and other food products from various sections of the state. For many years Michigan has been a ranking producer of foodstuffs, some of which have gained national recognition but too many of which are not generally known. Such ev­ ents as the forthcoming Washington banquet attended by well-known fig­ ures and national publicity should do much to bring the high quality of Michigan's farm and food products before the eyes of the nation. It might not be a bad idea to ex­ pand the promotion of the use of Michigan food products by staging similar dinners in larger cities of the nation on the occasion of large con­ ventions, world fairs, expositions and similar attractions where thousands of visitors gather. Michigan will have its specially designated days at both the New York and San Francis­ co Fairs this year. Why not feature "Michigan Days” with "Michigan Menus" provided by the fruits of its soil and food manufacturing plants? —Michigan Manufacturer and Finan­ cial Recoxd. Sit-Down* If Madam Secretary Per.11 gal. k’ns of the Department of Labor still was in doubt is to whether or not sit-down strikes are i legal, she found out last Mon­ day when the United State Supreme court in a stinging decision declared that such sc zure of private property 1 and the violence accompanying it is' indefensible. The decision read by Chief Justice Hughes, who has been almost New Dealish -n his liberalism Group these last two years, left no room for were held in their louht or argurooit. It went even far- ther than to declare the sit-down un­ lawful It declared that employes guilty of such Illegal seizure of prop­ erty forfeited their rights as employes and that employers could not be for­ ced to re-employ sit-downers. And in still another opinion t<ie Court held that employes must abide by their contracts, just as employers are ex­ pected to stand by theirs. It held that when employes violated the terms of their contracts they like­ wise sacrificed their rights as em­ ployes and their employers may not be forced by NLRB or anybody else to re-employ them. . It is long since past time that we should have had a decision on these vital phases of the Wagner Labor Re­ lations Act and on - the operation of the National Labor Relations Board, creature of that Act The Act in it­ self is a one-sided, and unfair thing which gives no chance to the employ­ er and all the prejudice in favor of the employe. But the NLRB has gone far beyond the terms of the Wagner Act It has made itself ob­ noxious even to decent Labor by its unfair and impossible rulings. The decision of the Supreme Court has shut down on this sort of thing in a decisive manner. The next step now is for the Con­ gress to take enough courage unto it­ self to revamp the Wagner Act and make it fair to all parties, including the general public. Heretofore, mem­ bers of the Congress have talked much about amending the Act but never had the courage to tackle the job. The decision of the Supreme Court seems likely to provide the Congress with the necessary spine. The Wagner Act Itself having been amended, the next move should be for the proper authority to name a Na­ tional Labor Relations Board compos­ ed of men who are at least fair-mind­ ed and who will try to do something beside cripple Industry and play into the hands of the most radical ele­ ments of Organized Labor.

Wednesday eve thia week we arc having a prayer meeting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Rice. May we have your prayers and presence? In The Sunshine. When Paul trod down, the Roman roads. And Silas followed on, With all that goodly company Who worshipped God's own Son, They scattered sunshine all the way, And changed earth’s darkness into day! They preached a law of light and love, That made all life to smile; So slave and soldier, man and maid, Saw life was still worth while. A glad “Good News” that cast out fear. Threw back the clouds, made heaven near! And since that time, throughout the years, ” Two armies march along; One goes the path of doubt and fear, The other, faith and song. On one abide the shades of night, But on the other, sunshine bright! Today the earth is full of woe, Of doubt and trembling fear; Men hail the morrow with alarm,. And few things seem quite clear. But those who follow with our Lord Still have the sunshine of His word! So let the earth reel to and fro, Yea, let the heavens fall; We still have light we still have life, And Christ is all in all. We march along a radiant road That leads to glory and to God! Church Of The United Brethren In Christ. E. B. Griffin, D. D.» Pastor. Woodland church—10 a. m., Morn­ ing worship. 11 a. m..

Economy Still Is Trend. ■ In the so-called modernization of the act. Republican legislators will see to it that many jobs are made available, just as Democrat law­ makers in 1937 provided that only •■qualifying" examinations had to be taken by job applicants prior to Jan. 1. 1938. The present act covers 17,000 state Varkers. If by exempting low income em­ ployees as well as policy-making ex­ ecutives this number would be reduc­ ed to 8.000 to 10,000, legislators say that a saving can be effected in the operating cost of the civil service de­ partment The commission has asked $300,000 for the next fiscal year be­ ginning July 1, 1939. House leaders want to reduce this to $100,000 on grounds of economy. Clipping of civil service wings thus would be justified, in part at least, by the imperative need to avert a further deficit In the Senate a tourist-farm ad­ vertising appropriation was reduced from $400.009*Ttr'$300.000. Instead of $50,000 a year for general state ad­ vertising, as granted two years ago. the amended bill provides for $25,000 a year. Advertising of Michigan farm pro­ ducts was limited to $25,000 a year on a $5,000 matched aid basis for any one product—apples, potatoes, etc. Because of the 1939 world fairs at New York and San Francisco, Mich­ igan resort owners are apprehensive over summer prospects. Last year’s business was 20 per cent off normal. Defeat School Bill. Supported by the Michigan Educa­ tion association a resolution to relax the present 15-mill tax limitation, putting a revision up to a spring re­ ferendum, was defeated by a narrow margin the House. Dr. Eugene Elliott had supported the resolution which he felt would permit local districts to undertake needed school building construction. Only two issues will appear on the April ballot: (1) Nonpartison elec­ tion of judges; (2) To permit the legislature to extend to circuit court commissioners judicial powers simlar to those of justices of peace. Borrowing Problem. A bill to give Michigan cities bor­ rowing power of 20 per cent of their current tax levies, instead of 10 per cent, has stirred a controversy in De­ troit where the measure is backed by city officials headed by Mayor Read­ ing. The Detroit Bureau of Governmen­ tal Research opposed to any increase in indebtedness, declared that to dou­ ble the borrowing limit was but to multiply the "stableful of dead hors­ es with which Detroit now is pla­ gued. " Because of unemployment and a resultant temptation to undertake public work programs under the PWA’i offer of generous grants, many Michigan cities have borrowed to the limit. If recent legislative artion is any index of Lansing's present temper, bills for more borrowing and more spending are likely to be carefully scrutinized. Chances of their pass­ age are none too good, at this mo­ ment. Bricks And A Bouquet. Because many newspapers advocate retention of civil service and oppose outright repeal some legislators have been inclined ’ in recent weeks to grumble loudly about the press. To seasoned capital correspondents who have seen administrations come and go and who followed the 1938 campaign in which few newspapers rallied to the support of Frank Mur­ phy. the present critical attitude is a sudden reversal in form. While law-makers are now in a mood to damn editors in general and correspondents in particular, newspa­ per writers generally agree that the present membership of the legislature is distinctly above average in individ­ ual competency and ability. At the same time, viewing the Lansing scene as unbiased observers, they believe that any civil service action smacking of sabotage would react unfavorably to the party in 1940. "Three months ago these legislators were praising newspapers for their fairness In the’campaign," comment­ ed one Detroit writer. "Now they are damning us. It all has convinced me that the press is on sound middle ground, neither to the right or left" We present these candid statements for what they are worth.

December Letters BASEBALL MEETING FRIDAY EVENING, MARCH 17 Salisbury, S. Rhodesia, Africa. Nyadiri Mission PB136E Dec. 4, 1938 W-e had a big day yesterday. At 6:30 a. m. all six of us piled into Sal­ ly's car and headed for Salisbury. It was cloudy and not too warm, so we were very comfortable. We drove the 80 miles in 2 1-2 hours, so that wasn't bad considering African roads, which are quite like washboards much of the way. We took a room at the hotel in which to rest and leave packages, etc., and then shopped! I bought material for my curtains and drapes. I’ll aend you a sample. The net is for sash curtains to keep out prying eyes. I got a little gift for each of the or­ phans for Christmas, clinical ther­ mometers, quinine, stamps, etc. After shopping, we went to see Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. The theater was packed. The play was as good as when I saw it in Michigan, but I didn’t like the way folks smoked all through, as people don’t at home. After the movie we packed up our baggage, loaded in the crowd, and went to the home of the McKenzies, friends of the girls, for tea. Mrs. McKenzie is an Indiana girl, and Mr. McKenzie a South African, but edu­ cated in Englahd. They were charm­ ing Christian people. We left there about 6:40 and headed for home. The farther we went, the harder it rained. Up near Mrewa, two miles away, the storm was terri­ fic, with water coming down in tor­ rents and the lightning very sharp. Much of the way it was almost im­ possible to see, but Sally is an ex­ cellent driver with steady nerves and we reached home a little before ten. Tuesday. 12' m.—Yesterday was the last day of school with all its at­ tendant excitement. I helped in the forenoon with the exhibits. At 2 p. m. Standard IV gave their final pro­ gram. Usually this is Commence­ ment, but as we are adding Standard V next year, most of the students will stay. This morning I put my morning glories up on strings. They seem to be very .healthy plants. We also measured out our garden and started to get it plowed. We put it down by the well so we can keep it watered. I hope to raise 'some good tomatoes, but everyone thinks it isn’t easy to do. Dec. 8—I have my curtains and drapes up, and my room is all dressed up. Sally offered to lend me a dresser so my room will be ready for open house Dec. 3, when the crowd will be here for tea. I’m taking on two arithmetic classes to tutor during vacation so they can pass—four pupils in all. I am also making Jengara's (house helper) second dress for her wedding, of the red and white silk enclosed. So far all goes well. How I hate to tackle the white satin wedding dress!

Defective Chimney Caused Local Fire Small Loss To Llcbhauser House On Francis Street, Occupied By The Gerald Crittendens. When Mrs. Gerald Crittenden, South Side resident, saw smoke com­ ing from under the stair-door about 10 a. m. Thursday, she hurried to the E. D. Olmstead home next door to summon the fire department which had a two hour fight in smoke to ex­ tinguish a second story partition fire due to a defective chimney. The house is owned by W. J. Liebhauser and was insured, and repairs cannot be made until the loss Is ad­ justed. Loss to the Crittendens was from smoke. They carried no insur­ ance at the time of the fire, but im­ mediately planned on taking out in­ surance on their household furnish­ ings. Until the repairs to the bouse are made, they are staying with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. C. J. Cole. Last Friday evening an unusually large, appreciative audience gathered at the school auditorium to witness the third annual Amateur perform­ ance. By the careful planning of the class and the people who took part in the contest, they housed the largest audience ever known in the history of the auditorium. Perhaps too, the peo­ ple from the front row to the very top of the balcony saw some of the best group performances that they have seen for a long time, the costumes being so unique and the numbers so cleverly arranged that judges found It difficult to awaru the prizes. The Norton school took first prize in the rural school group by its unusual tal­ ent in group singing and individual numbers. The Moore was awarded ‘ second prize on toeir 'Very cleverly I arranged vocal number of "Cathedral in the Pines,” while the Mayo earned ! the third prize by its number, 'The Utile Dutch MUI." In the Nashville grade group, the first and second grades walked away . with first prize by marching "The j Painted Doll" straight to the altar.

Judges of PrvboU- Courts end sll county judlcUJ provided by the Leglslature under Section 21 of Article VH of the Constitution, shall be non-par­ tisan. Nominations for these offices will be made at primary elections. Nominating petitions for candidates shall be filed at least 35 days prior to such primary election. Nominating petitions for Judge of the Circuit Court shall be filed with the Secretary of State and for all other judicial of­ fices affected by this amendment with the county clerk. There will be a separate ballot used in the primary election of these Judges. There will be no party designation used by the incumbent or other candidates. This proposal will add a new Section to Article VII of the State Constitution. Proposal No. 2 provides for the vesting in Circuit Court Commission­ ers, such powers as exercised by Jus­ tices of the Peace. It gives the Leg­ islature power to provide by law for the election of one or more persons in each organized county with judicial power, not exceeding those of a Cir­ cuit Judge at chambers with judicial powers of a Justice of the Peace with power to bold court and perform ju­ dicial acta anywhere in the county.

The five year old daughter of the couple. Joyce, was also killed, and Glenn, the small son, was badly injured but is. expected to live. Wit­ nesses to the accident told state po­ lice that Mr. Abel drove directly into the path of the train although the engineer had Bounded several warn­ ings before reaching the crossing. It was snowing at the time, and the car windows were all closed, so it was apparent that Mr. Abel neither saw nor heard the approaching train.

R. No. 2, General Welfare bill. All Townsendites are busy reading the statements and discussions by the various witnesses for this bill before thc Ways and Means committee. “Let’s make tax money produce new wealth instead of making taxes destroy wealth, as is the case today." There's only one thing ailing Am­ erica today. That is the loss of a market for the things we are capable of producing. Let’s employ the old people as consumers and lift otirselves out of poverty for the first time in the history of the world. We must convince Congress that nothing will satisfy us "but a complete restoration of prosperity to every­ body. After a furious floor debate, the Michigan House of Representatives adopted a resolution memoraiizing Congress to give "earnest’’ considera­ tion to the Townsend old age pension plan. A motion to amend the Senate resolution so that it would urge Con­ gress to provide “adequate old age assistance" without mentioning the Townsend plan was defeated 53 to 17. Twenty-three Representatives nev­ ertheless were willing to go on record as against th plan while 48 voted for the resolution. CARE OF HOUSE PLANTS. House Plants Must Be Fed.

The Air Gun Evil. Judges are convinced that the boy who becomes proficient in the opera­ tion of an air gun does not find it difficult later on to acquire the skill necessary to handle a rifle or machine gun effectively. In fact, on numer­ ous occasions the use of toy guns has been known to instill' in the adoles­ cent mind a desire for a real weapon. While it may be amusing for thoughtless parents to witness small children reenacting a robbery, hang­ ing, or Indian massacre there is dan­ ger that such children will continue to act out these parts when they be­ come adults. Wise parents not only prohibit their children from tuning in on radio programs descriptive of crime but they also supervse the types of motion pictures their children are al­ lowed to see. A concerted movement is now under way in the United States to bar all toys, which might in any manner tend to'depict war or crime, from interstate commerce, and to substitute in . their place character building activities such as advocated and practiced by the Boy Scout, the YMCA and other praiseworthy move­ ments.

' VOLUME LXV Five Cents the Copy NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, MARCH 23, 1939 Michigan Mirror By Gene AUeama Eight legislative days remain for filing of new hills for the 1939 ses­ sion of the state legislature. Pet meafures of every kind are be­ ing dumped into the hopper, referred to sundry committees, and left to await their fate which, in moot cases, will be oblivion. The very fact that more than 600 bills have been introduced to date and that around 900 will pribably be the final total offers an Insight into the hazards which legislation must sur­ mount 'twixt introduction and pas­ sage. ’ More than one conscientious Rep­ resentative and Senator has-voted in favor of a bill on the say-so of a friend without giving it more than a passing glance. In the mad rush of the Anal weeks of every legislative session, unwise bills often slip thru, due to realistic circumstances rather than to deliberate intent 266-Pagv BUI. A case at hand is Senate Bill Mo. 1', the probate code, representing months of work by a study commission creat­ ed by the 1937 legislature. This measure, sponsored by Sen. D. Hale Brake contains 266 pages. It is the prize measure to date for length. On Monday, March 13, the senate judiciary committee reported out the bill. The official journal of the senate, No. 45 of the 1939 series, might well be a text for students of political sci­ ence on the modern art of govern­ ment This issue contains all the amendments recommended by the committee for the probate code—ex­ actly 450^in number! Senators were appalled the jum­ ped of having each amen«5ti«"fit read byjthe clerk, as is necessary during general orders if one senator so de­ sires. Obviously the senate would be in continuous session for many, many hours. Few. if any. of the members would have the patience or endurance to survive the ordeal. What happened? You guessed right Tbe senate passed the biU, hoping for the best. It was more a vote of confidence in Sen. Brake and his colleagues, all at­ torneys. than one of approval of the bill and its 450 amendments. Here is modem government in op­ eration. “Ufa For A Pint” Twelve years ago a similar pre­ dicament confronted a Michigan leg­ islature. and the unforeseen results led to the election of Wilber M. Brucker as governor. A voluminous bill, dealing with crime and justice, emerged one day from committee. It consisted of pages and pages. Among the many restrictions was a sentence that pro­ vided up to life sentence for a habit­ ual offender—one convicted of four offenses. The bill became a law. During prohibition days more so than now enforcement of the state liquor law was a much-publicized is­ sue. Michigan awoke one morning to read in the daily newspaper that the legislature had provided mediaeval punishment for a citizen seized with a pint of liquor in his possession. In the public controversy that ensued, Mr. Brucker, then a deputy attorney general, became the man of the hour. It was a publicity break that result­ ed, later on, in hii elevation to the governorship. wholesaler and distributor. $1,000. and each retail dealer *$100. House Bill 293 would license bar­ bers and haircutters, define an ap­ prentice barber, and authorize regu­ lations. fees and investigators. Electrical Code. House BiU 308 would amend the 1935 electrical code to provide “it shall be unlawful for any person, firm or corporation to install any electri­ cal wiring except in compliance with the regulations prescribed by the electrical administrative board." ■ This measure defines classifications of electrical journeyman, master elec­ trician and electrical contractor. A half dozen fair trade bills have been Introduced to date, each one seeking to outlaw the so-called “loss leader." merchandise that is sold be­ low cost, and in many instances pro­ viding for a commission or bureau to see that retailers observe the regu­ lations. These bills hark back to the "Blue Eagle" NRA days when a federal government sought, through administrative code authorities,’ to maintain fair prices and thus assure retailers and manufacturers of a profit. Model Advertising Law. In 1931 the legislature enacted a criminal code which .contained a re­ striction against "false advertising" which follows closely the model sta­ tute prepared by "Printers’ Ink" magazine first in 1911. This statute has been enacted, as part of codes or as individual laws, by 30 of the 48 states. • According to J. D. Jordan of the Better Business Bureau of Detroit, Michigan’s false advertising law is .’practically identical" with the natonal model statute. It offers ade­ quate protection to the consumer against false or misleading state­ ments made in any advertisement whether in a newspaper, magazine, handbill, printed sheet for direct mail use, or in any other manner for public or private dissemination. On Saturday, Feb. 11, in Judge George Murphy's court at Detroit, two partners and a .manager of a photographic studio / were fined $50 each and one of the partners was giv­ en a suspended prison sentence for sending "false and misleading" state­ ments through the mail. The statute on which the three men were suc­ cessfully. tried was Michigan's model advertising law. It is the opinion of many legisla­ tors that the above consumer pro­ tection, already on the statute books, is ample and sufficient and that fur­ ther false advertising restrictions are not needed. Additional advertising restrictions may be found in a num­ ber of bills Introduced during this session, many of them of good inten­ tion but without knowledge of their sponsors that the state already has a model law fully protecting the con­ sumer. ' ’ Straws In The Wind. The current A. F. L.-CIO feud has weakened labor's strength at Lans­ ing. The governor’s labor relations mediation bill, proposing a “cooling off” period before a strike, has better than even chances of passage. Chances of repeal of the civil ser­ vice law (as forecast in this column last week i. have disappeared com­ pletely. Senate Republicans intend to revamp the law, reducing the number of state employees covered. House sentiment still is strong for outright repeal but it won’t get very far. Economy-minded members of the legislature are taking a whack at ev­ ery appropriation bill. Sen. Bishop's state advertising bill, originally call­ ing for $150,000 a year for tourist advertising and $50,000 for matching growers' expenditures for farm pro­ duce advertising, was cut in the sen­ ate to $125,000 and $25,000 respec­ tively. The House ways and means committee then reduced the total to $100,000 a year. Final passage was scheduled for this week. John Maurer Home Caught Fire Monday Gov.

As the deadline nears for introduc­ tion of bills, more and more regula­ tory measures appear at Lansing. Each special group seeks to have the state government regulate its business, ostensibly in the name of fair trade but in reality for the pur­ pose of controlling competition.

Stop And In the old days when I Sell. was on the road traveling by train. I often had to take a train to a town ta the morn­ ing and wait until night to get back. The result was that I was forced to stay ta the town all day and so I made calls on all my prospects. Automobiles which admittedly help us to get around faster, also cause us to skip many prospects. We would rather drive than sell, so we just scratch the surface ta a town, and dash away to another.- And we often kid ourselves that there is nothing for us ta the small towns and flash through them without stopping at alL One winter day, on a hunch.

We cannot continue to exist without it The liberies we have enjoyed for he last hundred and fifty years represent an unprecedented divergence from the systems that have been followed by other countries throughout the en­ tire history of the world. Gladstone, one of England's great statesmen, is said to have remarked that our Constitution evidenced a de­ gree of wisdom that was almost di­ vine in character. During Fourth of July celebrations previous to the New Deal revolution­ ary experiments we boasted of the superiority of our system. We’ are a free people. Washington, Jefferson are cited as saviors. The wisdom that was manifested ta the govern­ mental system created by these pio­ neers has been heralded throughout the world. • We have enjoyed wealth beyond the wildest Imaginations of the rich men of former periods. But the more wealth w’e secure, the more privileg­ es we enjoy, the less patriotism we seem to have. , What's the matter with us ? Why । can’t we learn to appreciate the good' things ta life that have come to us practically without effort We will either learn to appreciate, them, or ultimately they will toe lost forever. , If we buy a fine automobile, we re­ > alize the necessity of taking care of it It is given every possible atten­ tion . . . furnished with oil at proper, intervals and frequently cared for like, Uvcrance from band­ age in Egypt and their journey to the promised land are typical of our own deliverance from the bondage of material sense, and of our journey from the belief that life te material to the true sense of being as spiritual and harmonious. God tenderly loves and cares for each of His children. All are ta real­ ity spiritual and perfect and ever conscious of His great love. God’s love has no opposite. Sooner or later this will be understood by each one. In proportion as it is understood, God's great love operates as law in human experience, delivering one from evil. This truth protects, di­ rects. illumines, inspires and gives one courage and strength. Realization of the futility of trust ta material methods for healing, and of the emptiness of a material sense of existence, causes one to turn from the belief ta matter as substance, earnestly desiring to know spiritual being as the only reality. Mary Bak­ er Eddy writes on page 322 of "Sci­ ence and Health with Key to the Scriptures": ’The sharp experienc­ es of belief ta the supposititious life of matter, as well as our disappoint­ ments and ceaseless woes, turn us like tired children to the arms of di­ vine Love. Then we begin to learn Life in divine Science." Throughout her writings, Mrs. Ed­ dy brings out the fact of God's per­ fect'maintenance of man ta His like­ ness and makes it clear that, just as divine Love protected Daniel ta the lions' den, and the Hebrews ta the fiery furnace, so today, through our realization of ’ this truth, divine Love's perfect care will operate as law to take care of us ta every way. Understanding the protecting pow­ er of divine Love, which ever jnaintains man ta perfect harmony, the Master, upon telling the disciples of the trials and persecutions they would meet, said (Luke 21:18), "But there shall not an hair of your head perish." Peter, having experienced the glorious protection which comes from the realization of divine Love's care for Its own; admonishes us to careth for you” (I Peter 5:7). A great sense of peace and the con­ stant expectation of good come to us as we glimpse the spiritual fact that God is omnipotent Love, and that man is His child. On page 589 of Science and Health Mrs. Eddy speaks of the spiritual peace which comes "from the understanding that God is the divine Principle of all existence, and that man is His idea the child of His care.” Fear of disease is destroyed when one realizes that God is infinite Love, the only power and presence. Like­ wise the lure of materiality and the fear of sin are overcome ta the measure in which one realizes that God is infinite Love. Comprehending the a beloved child.

Dickinson. The new governor of the state took the oath of office at 7:20 a. m. Fri­ day, March 17, under circumstances that were strangely similar to those under which Calvin Coolidge, tight­ lipped economy-loving Vermonter, assumed officially the obligations of President of the United States six­ teen years ago. The scene of both ceremonies was a farmhouse. Simplicity prevailed to an old-fashioned spartan degree. ’T am humbled by this new res­ ponsibility,” the new executive said. And being governor was not going to make any difference in his creed of living; he said he would continue to teach his Sunday school class, health permitting; he would continue to de­ cline invitations to social affairs on Sunday, which he and his wife always observed as the Sabbath, not e holi­ day. The remarks were typical of the man’s personal wholesomeness which is supported by a life-time of clean living. Sternesa In Morality. In matters of public morality, Gov­ ernor Dickinson will be stern and un­ yielding. As vice president of the National AntiiSaloon league and a prominent layman of the Methodist Episcopal church, he will countenance no com­ promise with gambling. In his inau­ gural address before the state Sen­ ate, Dickinson warned that America may'invite thexfate that befell an­ cient Greece and Rome if it tolerates corruption and immorality. "The* vehement outcry from every locality of our own state," he said, "are uttering vociferous demands that we purge our state of these gambling leeches, habitues of our Fairs races, resorts and roadsides.” Mu'ch as he favors home-rule res­ ponsibility, the governor will not tol­ erate gambling. In fact, it is almost inconceivable that the question would ever have arisen in 1939 if he had possessed supreme executive powers. Economy To Be Emphasized. A man who has always lived sim­ ply, Governor Dickinson, exemplifies the watchword of economy which Fitzgerald carried to the capital city. It was noticeable that in the first legislative session, after the tragic loss of the party's leader the House of Representatives voted almost un­ animously to curtail the spending of the four tourist associations reduc­ ing their appropriation from $25,000 to $20,000 a year. At the same hour the Senate sliced more than a mil­ lion dollars from appropriations there, easily outdoing their colleagues in a staunch stand for economy. Again Michigan’s "Coolidge" may be well expected to hew closely to the economy line. Home pressure groups, no matter what their Interests may be, will be treated alike by the governor. His whole life has been predicated on ec­ onomy which will hold in all his of­ ficial action. It is being said freely at Lansing that he owes no obligations to vote manipulators such as Edward Ber­ nard, wealthy attorney in Wayne county, and Frank McKay, influential industrialist in Kent county, who pooled their delegate strength at the Grand Rapids and Flint conventions. To that extent, it now appears that these gentlemen are out at the end of the proverbial limb. The legal possibility that a succes­ sion of responsibility might impose the mantie of official duties on Harry Kelly, secretary of state, has not been received joyously by the Wayne county Republican boss. Kelly owes his job solely to the insistence of Fitzgerald that he (Kelly) be given a place somewhere in the slate-making. Reliable information is that Kelly is independent. A front-line fighter in France during the World war. the Detroit secretary of state likes to scrap. It all fits nicely into the rap­ idly changing picture at Lansing.

Funeral services for Mrs. Hayden Nye, 77, well known Kalamo resi­ dent, whose, death due to a kidney ailment occurred on March 21. were held at 2 p. m. Thursday afternoon at the Hess Funeral Home and largely attended. Rev. Wendall Bassett, pas­ tor of the Evangelical church, offic­ iated. and there was organ music by Mrs. Pauline Lykins. Burial was made ir. Wilcox cemetery, and the bearers were Alfred Baxter. Joe and Louis Hickey, Orlo Ehret, Orville Ward and Glenn Steele. Julia E. Jacobs was bom at Roan, Indiana, on July 31, 1861, to Daniel and Katherine Gearhart Jacobs. At the age of 8 she moved with her parents to Wayne county, Ohio. September 12, 1880, Julia Jacobs was married to Marion S. Weaks. They made their home on the Kinney place, just north of the Quailtrap school. For a short time they lived in Sunfield, then returned to Nash­ ville and resided on the county line road, three and a half miles southeast of town. Marion Weaks passed away March 4. 1911, leaving his wife and two adopted sons, Harold and Leland. September 12, 1928, Julia Weaks united in marriage to Hayden Nye of Nashville. They lived for a time on the McKinnis place, and later on Mrs. Nye's farm also in Kalamo. Left to mourn her passing are her husband, Hayden Nye; two sons, Har­ old and Leland Weaks; a sister Mrs. E. B. Smith; and many neighbors and friends. The regular March meeting of the Nashville Chamber of Commerce was held at the I. O. O. F. hall Monday evening. Twenty-lwo members were present. The dinner was ser­ ved by a committee of the Rebekah lodge. Following dinner and a short busi­ ness session, at which two new mem­ bers, C. R. Plumley and Gerald Mont­ gomery, were taken into the organi­ zation, the evening was given over to a showing of motion pictures. These pictures, sponsored by the Olds Motor company of Lansing, were brought here by Mr. Montgom­ ery, who is an employee of that con­ cern and who operated the machine. One reel showed a motor trip thru old Mexico, mountains, country and city scene^ and also a bull fighting arena and portions of a contest, and the immense crowd attending. Lowell Thomas gave the description during the run of the picture. The second reel was a showing of the championship fights of Jack Dempsey during his pugilistic career. The description was given by the popular announcer, Thos. Ashton. The final of this reel was a series of comics. It was voted to close the stores from 1 to 3 p. m. on Good Friday. Mrs. Capitola Irland, 8C, Dies Thursday Highway Department Issues Warning On Truck Loading On AU Trunk Unes. Canny Observer. Legislative leaders who know the new governor intimately agree that he possesses remarkable mental pro­ wess for a man of nearly four score years. t His ability to handle detail work has always been apparent. He has a memory for names and faces that Li distinctly above the ordinary. More than one veteran legislator 20 to 25 years his junior has declared: "Dick­ inson's mind is a lot keener than mine." From His long experience in public affairs, having been lieutenant gov­ ernor so many years that he has be­ come an "institution” to people In small towns and rural areas—in gen­ eral, Michigan's middle class, Dick­ inson has acquired a canny sense of reacting to public opinion. He may be expected to proceed cautiously. He has already indicated that it might be wise to concentrate legislative attention to four major problems: Civil service, labor relaions, welfare and budget-balancing. Just as the legislative trend two years ago was sharply to the left, leaving a $18,000,000 red-ink mark for Frank Murphy to worry about, so the 1939 legislature appears to have swung the other way. The net result, among the four issues, may well be a conservative labor law (taking*ad­ vantage of the Lewis-Martin CIO feud) and a sharp slash in state spending. The economy trend, if continued would justify in the eyes of administration leaders a lessening of civil service control, putting fewer Practically Lifetime Resident Of Cas­ state employees under its rules, and tellon.

Restrictions On Truck Loading Special spring truck loading re­ strictions were ordered by the state highway department this week on all state trunk line highways. State Highway Commissioner Mur­ ray D. Vanwagoner’s order for gen­ eral application of the restrictions followed by several weeks the orig­ inal order placing them in effect on all trunk line highways south of the Bay City-Muskegon line. The spring regulations call for load limit reduc­ tions of 25 per cent on all concrete roads and 35 per cent on gravel roads. They may be applied or lifted by the state -highway commissioner as conditions warrant during March. April and May. The commissioner said that , the restrictions would be lifted as rapidly as conditions on in­ dividual highways permitted. These measures are designed to protect the highways during the per­ iod of "spring break-up" when the frost leaves the ground and sub­ grades are soft. * Ei<ht Pages * New Village Officers Are In Office Now Twin* Are Unlucky, Writes Edith Park* Election RiwulU Approved At Coun­ Intrrctlnc True Story Of Birth Tim cil Meeting.

Boyhood As we grow older we look Scenes. at the past through the magnifying glass of ro­ manticism. A middle-aged man who lives near by, used to sit before the fire and dream of the glamorous scenes of his boyhood. He pictured the old home, a great rambling man­ sion set far back from the broad street, with a semi-circular drive curving between great elms. Near by was his grandfather’s house, an im­ mense structure, surrounded by end­ less lawns and a profusion of rare flower. Last week he drove his faithful old Packard half across the continent to bask once more in these scenes. He found the home of his boyhood, now in another owner's bands. It was a frame house of ordinary size, stand­ ing about thirty feet back from a commonplace residential street A sign beside the door stated that there was a room to rent The old elms still stood, but nobody would ever notice them because of their size. His grandfather's home proved to be an unassuming eight-roomed house, now much in need of paint, and its endless lawn had shrunk to a city lot The great homes of the dignified Fieldings, the Charnocks, the Kells, the Chisholms, the Bellamys, the Leightons, and the Barties, proved to bo the modest homes of storekeepers, real estate men. and mechanics. AU these family names had become ex­ tinct long ago, through death. Tbctree of Immense girth in the back yard was still there, but it is a locust of normal size. The swimming hole, miles out of town, was but a small pool in a very small river, easily reached in five minutes by motor. As we grow older, we picture boy­ hood scenes with a romance and a dignity that they probably never pos­ sessed. Or, do the eyes of boyhood see men and scenes tn an abnormal, saffron light? If this be true, then it might be wel Ito let the picture re­ main and not spoil it by Investigat­ ing tbe real facts of the case.—The Imperial Magazine. Great- These words are written with much the same feeling that prompted Walt Whitman when he created the immortal “Oh Captain, My Captain!” Frank D. Fitzgerald was taken from the Ship of State with the voy­ age barely begun. His great pro­ gram had reached only the first stages of development when death’s impersonal finger singled him out. The loss of Michigan's First Citizen is the personal loan of every citizen of the state. Sincerity is the greatest virtue a man can possess. Everyone knew that Governor Fitzgerald was guided solely by sincerity in his every act— that political selfishness. often so common, had no part in his personal­ ity Michigan's eat Losa. Treaa.—Nelson Brumm. THURSDAY, MARCH 30,1939His rise to the highest position in the state was founded on ambition and’ ability. To the last days of his 22 year old career in state affairs he remained a man of the people, a man who could mingle with the great or humble with equal capability. Although he had taken office as the state’s First Citizen less than three months ago, his plans to restore bal­ ance and integrity to Michigan’s gov­ ernment were well under way. Mem­ bers of his own and opposing parties were convinced that his policies had but one alm—for the good of the state. No one would have been more pleased than Governor Fitzgerald to carry the battle for righteousness to completion. It is Michigan’s supreme loss that death intervened. But at the same time, it is Michigan’s priv­ ilege to have had the benefit of his guidance for at least this short per­ iod. There remains but one alternative —to carry out the program he so ab­ ly established, and although the leader is no longer at the helm, the course has been charted and needs but to be followed through. Michigan has lost a great man.— Michigan Men and Affairs. worry about is tomorrow. Tomorrow with ell its possible adversities, its perils, its Urge promise and poor performance.

Its sun will rise in roseate splendor or behind a mass of weeping clouds, but it will rise. Until then, the same love and pa­ tience that held yesterday holds to­ morrow. Save for the star of hope and faith that gleams forever on the brow of tomorrow, shining with ten­ der promise into the heart of today, I have no possession in the unborn day of Grace. Tomorrow is God’s day. It will be mine. There Is left for myself, then, one day in the week—today! - And man can fight the battles of today. Any man can resist temptation for just one day. Any woman can carry the burdens for just one day. It is only when we willfully add the bur­ dens of those two awful eternities, yesterday and tomorrow—such bur­ dens as only the Mighty God can sus­ tain—that we break down. It isn’t the experience of today that drives men mad—it is the remorse of some­ thing that happened yesterday and the dread of what tomorrow brings. Those are God’s days — leave them with God. Therefore, I think and I do and I journey but one day at a time. That is man’s day. Dutifully I run my course and work my appointed task on that day of ours, and God, the.

This "eternal unfolding of Life” cannot be deterred or interrupted. It is continuous, whatever erring sense may claim of limited powers or re­ stricted ability. Then, in our daily round, do we listen to the false cor­ poreal sense which expresses itself in weariness, sorrow, discouragement; or are we, through Christ, Truth, re­ buking this false sense, claiming, and rejoicing in, man’s immortality? When a child is told of the goodness and love and ever-preaence of God, usually he accepts this teaching and believes it and expects this goodness to appear in his experience. Are the child’s seniors as ready in their ex­ pectation of good, .as simple in their faith, as trustful of the love of the Father-Mother God? Only the fables of corporeality seem to exclude from thought and experience "the eternal unfolding of Life” or harmony. Only the Christ, Truth, rebukes and destroys corpor­ eal belief and reveals present immor­ tality. All may learn in Christian Science how to let these falsities be destroyed by Truth, that they may find the immortality and perfection of spiritual man, as God’s reflection. The understanding of Truth silences the demands of material sense, and demonstrates the ever-present, un­ failing strength which comes from Mind or Soul. The Psalmist declared (Psalms 46:1), “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble." Many have proved this spiritual assurance applicable in their everyday affairs, as well as in the solving of their graver problems. And each demonstration of the power of Spirit is added proof of man’s immorta ity.—Christian Science Monitor.

Friday last, before ths-House Ways and Means committee. Secretary Morgenthau testified in substance that such a change was desirable; that he thought it should be brought about Let those critics who say Republi­ cans accomplish nothing by criticism and the offering of amendments note this accomplisment Sure, you get tired of reading and hearing us find fault with New Deal measures, but if we do not call at­ tention to some of the crazy ideas of the present administration and offer suggestions and amendments which we think will aid in remedying the trouble until we get rid of this outfit which for six years has each year given us a shove along the road to­ ward bankruptcy, are we not failing in our duty? Another Constructive Suggestion. In season and out on the floor of Congress and many' places through­ out the country, I have bitterly criti­ cized the Wagner Act, the National Labor Relations Board and the CIO. This I have done so often and so strenuously that some people have written me saying that on this sub­ ject I was making a nuisance of my­ self (although they do not sign their communications.) Just as when, cm the streets of one of our towns I saw a bully or a mob abusing, misusing, someone, I would do my best to stop it, so, while this Wagner law-, the Labor Relations Board and the CIO continue not only to interfere unjustly with business but to oppress workingmen, to de­ prive them of their job, to levy trib­ ute upon them. I shall continue to ad­ vocate its amendment? Read your daily papers, the res­ pectable weekly and monthly maga­ zines, and you will discover that at last a wave of protest against the in­ justices of this law, its unfairness, its maladministration, is going up all over the country. In my judgment, one of the greatest single tasks that rests upon this Congress is to amend this law. For that purpose I have of­ fered a bill and intend to advocate the amendment of this Act as long as tills Congress remains Ln session. The New- Deal administration. Jo^r. L. Lewis' CIO and the Communists are about the only formidable opposition to such a program. A Revolving Fund. We have heard much in recent years about revolving funds. Did you ever stop to think of the dues collectcd by the communistic-controlled CIO from its workers, some 5400,000 of which went into the New Deal campaign fund, and the New Deal in turn aided the CIO, through its Labor Board and the LaFoltette Senate Clvil Liberties committee, In collecting more dues? There is a vicious circle that needs breaking. Patriotism—A New Test. Just how absurd some of the New Deal columnists can be w-as Indicated in last Friday’s Washington Star, where a former New Deal employee, writing under the name of Jay Franklyn, headed his column, “Conserva­ tives See Need of Drafting Roosevelt in 1940 Because of Crisis," and then Labor's Non-Partisan League, the CIO’s political affiliate, as follows: -Our purpose at present is to ran Roosevelt for a third term and to elect him." Roosevelt's third term supporters are using the "war scare" to force his election. We will have no more of a crisis Ln 1940 than we augurated. Michigan citizens realising the na­ tional situation can Indicate their disapproval at the coming April state election by voting a Republican tic­ ket. Sincerely, • Clare E. Hoffman Your Representative. TELEPHONE MEN’S FIRST AID SAVES DROWNING CHUD Three telephone mon were at 'work Inspecting aerial cable at Lodi. N. J., one morning recently when they heard a childish cry from the tar side of the Saddle River, scarce­ ly 100 feet away. Hurrying to the stream, they saw a child about two years old crying on the opposite shore. David J. McGill, one of the men, called to someone on the other side of the river to get the little girl back from the edge of the. stream. About to turn away, they then saw what appeared to be a doll floating in the river, but a sec­ ond glapce showed it to be a little girl, floating face downwards ih the water. ' Stewart A. Wallace and Arthur C. Martin, the other telephono men, plunged into the water and brought the little girl ashore. She was un­ conscious, her body cold and rigid and her teeth tightly locked. Forc­ ing her teeth apart, and the water from her lungs, Wallace applied the prone system of resuscitation which he had learned as part of the Bell System's first aid instruction. Mean­ while, McGill summoned an ambu­ lance. Wallace contlnped working on her steadily for fifteen minutes, Xhen the child finally showed some signs of returning consciousness. Owing to the prompt assistance of the three telephone men, the child fully recovered. Later they learned that the little girl was Carmllo Peralno, three years old, of Lodi, and that the other little girl crying on the bank was her sister. last ten years.

Of the latter, however, 6.6 cents is rep­ resented in fixed charges of the de­ partment-payments to the Highway Bond Sinking Funds and interest on the Grand Trunk loan in connection with the relocation of Woodward Avenue a dozen years ago. The report shows an almost com­ plete reversal in the trend of high­ way revenue distribution in the last nine years. In 1930, Michigan cities received no direct return from these revenues while a year later the re­ turn amounted to only .a half million dollars. Nine years sgo Michigan counties received only 20.7 cents of the motorists' tax dollar while the state highway department was allo­ cated a gross slice of 79.3 cents with 69.5 cents remaining for construction and maintenance after deducting fix­ ed charges. ■ County allocations reached their percentage peak in 1934 when 54.6 cents of the highway tax dollar was expended in this channel. Two years later, the cities had their highest per­ centage return whn 15 cents of every dollar went for municipal man ten ance and construction. The greatest drop in the amount remaining for construction and maintenance on the state system occurred in 1933 when 30.5 cents of the tax dollar was used for this purpose compared with 51.1 cents the previous year. Contracts awarded so far this year by the state highway department in­ dicate a banner year of improvement for Michigan secondary roads. State Highway Commissioner Mur­ ray D. VanWagoner, in preparing to take bids on additional projects this week, announced that by June first more, than 100 projects on secondary roads' would be under way or com­ pleted since the end of 1938. "We have pushed these programs for sec­ ondary projects in the last few months," the commissioner said,’ ’be­ cause for several years now we have been forced to concentrate practi­ cally all new construction on the main roads included in the Federal Aid system." The commissioner credited two separate programs with making ex­ tensive secondary road improvement possible this year. He said that con­ tracts had been awarded on 55 pro­ jects under a PWA program and 29 contracts under the Federal Aid Sec­ ondary programs. Bids will be taken on three more PWA projects and on four more Federal Aid Secondary projects. Additional projects under both programs will be bld in April and May.

Miss Helen Louise Rogers spoke her marriage vows to Darrell E. Housler at three o’clock Saturday af­ ternoon at the home of Mr. and Mrs. William Schrader, with Rev. Leon Manning officiating. The bride wore a wedding gown of dusty rose lace with a shoulder bou­ quet of sweet peas. Mrs. Leon Haus­ ler attended as maid of honor and was gowned in chartreuse crepe and wore a shoulder corsage of orchid sweet peas. Leon Housler was best man to his brother.

It seems that a great many young men have made a personal substitu­ tion of the Naval service in prefer­ ence to a university training. Wheth­ er the choice was voluntary or one of compulsion of circumstances doesn't matter, but each one of us is bound to learn that the benefits of either traln• Ing are mutual. We are matched step by step in comparison with a university. Our courses are designed in one-year units, the total being four. The decks act as our campus; the societies and ■ fraternities are many and varied and I here every man finds himself a mem-1 her of some group; our exams and ad­ vancements are frequent and there is I an unlimited time offered for post- i graduate work, even as high as thlr- | ty years in some cases. • j But in behalf of the man who grad- • uates in four years, with the greatest degree ever offered, that of “adap-| tation,” rests the fact of proving to’ the outride university-graduated j world, his ability to hold his own and show the decided improvement of an i environmental training, tutored by | experience, against an untried theor­ ized graduate of a university. It is my opinion that an employer | of this specialized world of today will select as his employee one who is quick in adaption, strong in exper­ ience and reliable to the nth degree. There is but one school which offers these combined factors, that is of our Service. Therein, gentlemen, He our assets to success, and each of us as a gradu­ ate must stand ready to prove that we are better fitted than any other to carry on. | Court House News ;: Probate Court. Est.

A large buck with a full set of ant­ lers has been reported near Crystal Falls for the second successive year and is suspected of the death of a fawn found gored. Th buck has been twice encounter­ ed by conservation officers, once lh 1938 and again in 1939. Considered an "exceptional" report by game au­ thorities, the buck has appaiently violated customs cf the deer tribe by retaining his antlers so long. Most bucks lose their antlers in December . or January. The American duck population is • believed to have definitely gone into । an up-swing, according to the results , of a nation wide survey. An annual increase has been noted in the duck population for the last four years but only with the 1938 census was the most critical period believed over. Results of the 1939 count are termed very encouraging, j The survey is believed to cover . from 20 to 30 per cent of the nation’s J ducks. In 1937 nine and one-half j million waterfowl were tabulated; in 1938, twelve and one-fourth million I were recorded and in 1939, about 14 i million. While a general increase was noted, , ducks are said to be fewer on the j great central flyway, Idaho, Montana, 1 North Dakota and on south. Geese are fewer throughout the country, tabulators report. The Increase ap­ parently has been entirely in the duck flocks. Chances for good bunting in the fall of 1939 are said to be entirely depend­ ent upon the nesting season. A good year will see considerably augmented flocks winging their way south in the fall while a poor nesting season will probably mean a poorer hunting sea- > Results of creel censuses conduct-; ed on the Pine river in Lake county i in 1937 and 1933 ahow that a mini- j mum of 35 to 55 per cent of legal trout planted before or during trout j season are taken by anglers during that season. These results, referring only to' brook and rainbow trout, also show. that the majority of hatchery brook | trout released during the season arc taken within three weeks after plant- ; ing. Hatchery-reared rainbow trout i were found to have been taken at a , more uniform rate throughout the season.

In telling ; of the need for the school, Mr. Kelly I explained that 17 out of 100 arrests j are of boys under 17 years of ago, i boys that could be readjusted thru understanding care and training such as given in his institution. The stories of six of the boys was given by Mr. Kelly, who emphasized the fact that 92 per cent of the prob­ lem cases are due to the emotions.; Some of the boys feel they are not' wanted in the homes, that they are; not loved, he said. Of the large numbers of boys who , have “graduated” from Starr Sommonwealth, 90 per cent have made good, according to Mr. Kelly.

Day by day one is faced with the necessity of making decisions and of taking the steps which logically follow these decisions, He who would be successful and progressive, re­ quires a right standard for guidance, one that is unfailing and without fluctuation. Such a standard, upon which all true endeavor may be se­ curely based, is to be found in Chris­ tian Science. In "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 275) Mary Bak­ er Eddy says: "All substance, intelli­ gence, wisdom, being, Immortality, cause, and effect belong to God. These are His attributes, the eternal mani­ festation of the infinite divine Princi­ ple, Love." Here is defined the spir­ itual standard of eternal perfection upon which all action should be bas­ ed. It must be clear, then, that in seeking the solution of any problem one must earnestly endeavor to real­ ize the ever-presence of God, the giv­ er of all wisdom and intelligence, and also the correlative fact of man’s re­ lationship to Him as His perfect child. His perfect reflection. So doing, one may come consciously into the reali­ zation of his at-one-ment with God, infinite Mind, whose spiritual law un­ erringly controls man and the uni­ verse. Mrs. Eddy states (Ibid, p. 470), "The standard of perfection was orig­ inally God and man." Therefore one’s human footsteps will be consist­ ently successful as his understanding of God and man develops. Through persistence in subordinating material testimony to spiritual facts, problems, complicated or simple, will yield to the truth and be solved. To God all is good, and to Him there can be no chance, change, or guesswork regard­ ing any manifestation; no doubtful decision or unfinished problem about which man could be perplexed. In the book of Proverbs one reads (16:1-3: "The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from the Lord. . . . Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established.” To re­ alize that man enjoys by reflection, the wisdom and intelligence of Mind is to come into possession of the an­ swer to whatever problem is con­ fronting one. This answer will appear more or leas quickly according to one's faith in-, and comprehension of, the real, spiritual facts of being, for Just as surely as one commits his “works unto the Lord" will he be rightly guided and preserved. Oftentimes a wrong decision at which one arrives results from the in­ fluence of others who may be involved in his affairs, or from silent mental pressure brought either Intentionally or unintentionally to bear upon him, and of which he may be unaware. One who depends upon God and seeks His unerring guidance, however, is completely shielded from the shafts of aggressive mental suggestion, for he is being influenced by the divine will and wisdom; and in the con­ sciousness of Love’s presence he is safe and secure. Spiritual man is never required to arrive at a decision, for he is reflec­ tion, the exact, the perfect expression of Spirit, God. Man lives in obed­ ience and conformity to the divine plan of creation, wherein all activity is continuously manifested, and is eternally in order. Spiritual man knows, because Mind. God. is all­ knowing. Expressing divine intelli­ gence, man is incapable of ignorance; he cannot act contrary to his creator, for he exists as the effect of the First Cause, God. It follows, therefore, that he who. through Christian Science, is leam'ng to rest his case in Mind, to depend entirely upon God in all circumstanc­ es. is assured of a right verdict, an exact result. In departing from hu­ min, unstable methods of planning. calculating, and outlining, based on the so-called logic of mortal minds, and turning-wholeheartedly to God for help, one is certain of security. Making Decisions. | Lancing New* Letter J Harry F. Kelly, Secretary of State, this week made it clear that he does not consider $80 an adequate living wage for a married man living in Lansing. This issue came to the at­ tention of the public when Ford East­ man, a young clerk in the Department of State, published his personal bud­ get to show where his money went Governor Dickinson, in discussing how many welfare clients of the state were frittering away money on non-essen­ tials recently was quoted as saying that most employes from governor to Janitor were overpaid. Secretary of State Keily made a personal investi­ gation in his own department, inter­ viewed Eastman, and upon finding 38 married persons working for less than $1,000 per year, stated that he would ; recommend that the minimum rate of pay for such persons should hence­ forth be $100 per month. "I believe in a fair rate of pay and then a full day’s work," said the Sec­ retary. "I do not believe in the regimenta­ tion of state employees or of those employed in private industry. I do not intend to interfere in any wsy with the private lives of my employ­ ees nor do I intend telling them how they shall spend the money they earn.” Judge Malcolm Ilaifield.

These states are to be con­ gratulated. While such laws do not protect children from infection, they may possibly prevent infected par­ ents from bringing blind children in­ to the world. When we consider that thousands of adults are committed to instltutions for the insane as a result of contracting social diseases, it be­ hooves parents, educators and chur­ ches alike to support any movement which will eradicate the misery that accompanies such a disease. It is estimated that approximately one out of every ten persons in this country is afflicted with a social disease.

Should the answer to a problem ap­ pear to be delayed; should an element of doubt seem to cling to our con­ sciousness even though we have faith­ fully endeavored intelligently to real­ ise our birthright of oneness with the Father, then we must stand even more firmly and trustingly, and purify our thought every moment by silent pray­ er communion with Him who knows all things. We must bring "into cap-tivity every thought to the obedience of Christ" (II Corinthians 10:5), and rejoice in the exalting experience of Love's corrective, compassionate care. So doing, we shall become ever more conscious of the established order and unvarying activity of the spiritual universe, wherein there is seen to be only one right way In all things, even God’s glorious way of changeless per­ fection.—Christian Science Monitor.

Al! reliable polls show that the American people do not want to take part m any foreign war. Neverthe­ less. President Roosevelt forgetting that only Congress can declare war. is driving steadily toward that end and we will become Involved in war unless the people, by overwhelming public protest, bring him to his senses. Onoe we elected a President on the platform of "he kept us out of war" and shortly we were in war. Today President Roosevelt seeks a third term on the theory that war may come and that either he alone can pre­ vent it, or he alone can save us if we become involved in war. Two speeches made last week show his meddlesome provocation to foreign nations and his desire for a third term. ’ First, he made a speech saying that we would by force of arms op­ pose any foreign aggressor who came to the Western Hemisphere. There is no reliable, substantial evidence that either Germany. Italy or Japan in­ tends to use force In the Western Hemisphere. His speech could not fall to giv offense, to create tension. It was like meeting a man on the street and saying to him, ‘Til give you a Ticking,’ if you do so and so.” The natural result is to create anger and resentment. The President followed that speech by calling attention to the fact that Washington accepted the Presidency against his Individual desires and then broadly intimated that the cdbntry might need him. President Roosevelt, for a third term. . With Great Britain lending money to Germany for armament purposes— and the charge has not yet been de­ nied—why should we send American husbands and sons to further the po­ litical ambitions of any foreign ruler or official? Do not write me. I nm as much opposed to war as you are. But, in letters to the .press and through the press and to the New Deal Senators and Representatives in no uncertain terms make known your determina­ tion that American lives and Ameri­ can treasure should not be wickedly wasted in another World war. Sincerely, Clare E. Hoffman, Your Representative. GARDEN HINTS. Keeping Cut Flowers. Cut flowers may be kept fresh from 12 to 36 hours longer by adding a preservative to the water. The preservative recommended by Walter Kleinschmidt of the University of Michigan Botanical Gardens is one discovered by Prof. Alex Laurie of Ohio State University. After experi­ menting with over 150 preservatives, Professor Laurie found that a solution of hydrozene sulphate was of distinct value in keeping flowers fresh. The formula for making this pre­ servative iis one-half ounce of hydro­ zene sulphate to a pint of water. Add one teaspoon of this solution to each one and one-half quarts of water. This is the equivalent of a few drops to the average size vase. SEEKS BIRTH DATA j using a scrub bull whose anceetry • I unknown.

Michigan farmers reported the winter wheat crop in good condition on Apru 1st and indicated that the yield per acre would probably be above the 10­ year average. Tbe winter was rela­ tively mild, the ground covered with snow much of the time, and there has been little heaving, according to the Michigan Crop Reporting Service. Production for the state is expected to approximate 14,920,000 bushels, a reduction of nearly 23 per cent from the unusually large crop of 19,264,000 bushels produced in 1938, and about'6 per cent less than the 10-year (1928­ 37) average of 15,817,000 bushels. The acreage seeded last fall (746.000) was 18 per cent less than the seeded acreage of the previous year and about S per cent below the 10-year average. , For the U. S. the prospect is for a winter wheat crop of 49,219,000 bush­ els, a reduction of about 20 per cent from the large crop of 1938 (86,-637.­ 000 bushels), and 2 per cent below Est. A. E. Kenaston.

American Union, he pledged this na­ tion your country and mine, to match •force with force” Ln defense of any and all nations of the Western Hem­ isphere against aggression. Even if we desire to match "force with force,” if some-South American country gets into trouble with a Eu­ ropean nation, the President has no authority to make such a statement, for Congress alone, acting as you di­ rect, has the authority to match "force with force." He said, speaking of peace: "We are prepared to maintain it and to defend it to the fullest extent of our strength, matching force with force, if any attempt is made to sub­ vert our institutions or to impair the {dependence of any of our group. Should the method of attack be that of economic prvisure, I pledge that my own country will also give econ­ omic support so that no American nation need surrender any fraction of its sovereign freedom to maintain its economic welfare.” Again he spoke out of turn, for the reason that he has no power under the Constitution to use fores, send our boys on foreign soil in defense of a South American country, nor has he the power, without the sanction of Congress, to exert economic pressure. Why does he talk continuously about fighting and matching "force with force?” Search the press dili­ gently as you may and not one word will you find where any foreign nation has threatened to use force against us. If an individual struts day after day, announcing his willingness to whip any and all, sooner or later he becomes offensive and a fight is on. The truth of the matter is that the President, discredited here at home, known as one wtio failed to keep his solemn promises; as one who has done much to bring our nation and our people to bankruptcy: whose ad­ ministration is destroying business, making it ever more difficult for men to support themselves; who has sanc­ tioned violence and riots by his tacit support of the CIO and the Commun­ ists. is now dragging us every day nearer to the verge of becoming in­ volved in a foreign war. Unless he watches his step, history may charge him as one who in time of a real emergency, needlessly in­ volved his country In war which cost his people thousands of lives, billions of dollars. The greatest benefit the President could render this country would be to —to use a colloquial expression— "button his mbuth,” retire to his Hyde Park esta»e and remain silent while the real workers of the country— the businessmen, the industrialists and. above all. the farmers—brought about a return to sanity and prosper­ Ity. agricultural agents or by writing the • Bulletin ...........

No—decidedly not The driver should stop to see that the street or road is reasonably clear. The driver of a vehicle on the street or road may not know there is a pri­ vate road or driveway there.

The fine calibre, morale and efficiency of the young men who serve In the American Navy of today are living examples of the soundness of that system. These young men do not serve by force of condiiton or circumstance— they are American Navy men by choice. Some make the navy their life's profession, others remain only a few years to further or complete their educations. In either case, they are there because they desire to be. All advancement being competitive, tht individual’s ability being the only limitation—the spirit that prevails in the Amercan Navy is much like that of a school or university. True, we have our famed discipline and drills but here too the fact that the men are here by choice makes each evo­ lution an act of personal endeavorguided by friendly instructors; not a dreary routine by stern tank masters In our navy, a profession which en­ compasses a hundred different trades and vocations, we have proven beyond question that the American Way is the efficient way. leston.

Every’ 2 1-2 min­ utes a car is stolen. Every 24 sec­ onds some serious crime is committed. Forces of crime collect from the people $475.00 every time your watch clicks. $14,000,000,000 each year. In less than three months the cost of crime amounts to more than our en­ tire national cost of education. • Out of 100,000 criminal records to reach Washington, 11 per cent of the murderers were under 21 years of age. 39 per cent of the burglars were under 21 years of age. 700,000 American boys and girls enlisted in the army of crime. Edgar Hoover says: "Crime prevention is the teaching of honesty, the selection of youth guidance during the difficult years of his or her young life.” Nicnolas says: "We have youth in crime because we have failed to pro­ vide youth with proper outlets and upbringing.

A half hour before lunch an older child puts about an inch of water in the can, slightly unscrews the covers of the jars, and puos them in the cov­ ered can to heat. At noon the room should be thor­ oughly aired and each child given a chance to wash his hands with soap and water. Each child clears his desk and cov­ ers it with a clean napkin.

I’ve heard nothing of her since graduation until last post when I had a letter from Bishop Springer's wife, then in Liberia, who said Mildred had just arrived the day before a. a new missionary in Liberia. She will teach in a new school there. She must have gone under the Church Board, as the WFMS has no work there. Isn't that a surprise! Who says Albion doesn't put out mission­ aries? Alice says if anyone wrote her as long letters as I do, she wouldn’t bother to read them. I like your long ones and I feel you like mine. Am glad you keep them filed away for me. so I can use them when I get home. I know my letters never look prim. Wish I could have a good visit with you, but our letters are quite satis­ factory, aren't they? One week from today I'll have been gone six months! It doesn’t seem possible to me.

We believe further investiga­ tion would reveal the fact that many of these vehicles bought and operated by the state are not needed and should be taken out of service. We suggest that these cars as well as the luxurious machines used by former Gov.

By this means wc would eliminate one branch of state administrative expense, which has be­ come a burden to a multitude of tax­ payers. Let's make it mandatory that those in public positions, who find cars necessary in the pursuit of their duties, purchase them at their own expense and then charge to the state only such mileage used in actual state business. No more practical and economical move could be made at this time, as we see it, than to call a halt on such activities upon the part of this special group of wasters and spenders of the state funds.— Sentinel-Leader Sparta, Mich.

At his Inauguration the governor said, he was confronted with gamb­ ling and a large deficit. “I got down in my knees—I didn't stand—I got down on my knees and asked God to help," he said. "God answered my plea. He told me to ac­ cept Che responsibility of turning Michigan in another direction than it was walking. “I surrounded myself with an of­ fice staff that would look to Almighty God for guidance. We had to call for help, and that help was Almighty God. We had.to economize. We call­ ed on God to speak to state officials, employers and employes. We set aside a special day of prayer."

Section 6 provides that no employ­ er shall pay bis employees less than 25c an hour. etc., ixnd Section 7 pro­ vides that no employer, except under certain conditions, snail employ any of his employees for a work week longer than 44 hours, etc. Reads all right, does it not? Now make application of this law. As­ sume this case—and there are liter­ ally thousands of them throughout the country. A plant in your home town makes, let us say. keys, that is. those little pieces of metal which are used to lock wheels bn shafts, say, in automobiles. It sells those keys, to ■General Moto'-s or to Ford. They are used in the manufacture of cars ■which Ford or General Motors ship. If It happens, as it easily may, that the little factory in your town paid someone who had something to do with the making of those keys less than 25c an hour or permitted an em­ ployee to work more than 44 hours a ■week at regular pay, or violated any regulation or order of the administra­ tor, issued under Section 14 of the law, General Motors would be guilty of a violation of the Act, even though they knew nothing about the work­ ing conditions or wages in the plant where the keys were made. Or take this case—A certain firm making Duttons is now charged with a violation of the law. That button factory sold hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, of buttons to other firms making dresses, underwear, •clothing. Those manufacturers who make the clothing and cause the but­ tons to be sewed in place: those mer­ chants along your street who sell any ■of that underwear or clothing, if it is to be shipped in commerce, are guilty of a violation of the wagehour law. regardless of the fact that they knew nothing about the condi­ tions surrounding the manufacture of the buttons. Here is another interesting slant at this law. Many a boy has bought, with money which he earned distrib­ uting magazines or newspapers, clotning, skates, baseball equipment, fish­ ing tackle, any of those things which the boys like and which parents can not afford to buy for them. Those boys—young businessmen you might call them'—desiring to help their, fam­ ilies, demonstrate their own capabili­ ties show their independence, have been accustomed to go to the news­ paper plants to get their papers. Now newsboys and carriers between 14 and 16 years of age are prohibited by a recent ruling from going into the newspaper plant. The result is that the publisher must distribute his pa­ pers to substations, thus adding a prohibitive cost to the publisher and in many a case depriving the boys of employment which does them no harm: on the contrary, much good, and gives them business experience. Here is just one more: Newspaper reporters of necessity must be on the job at all times to catch and record the news of the day. Of necessity, they must have sufficient hours of employment so that they may live in Dept. Of Comervation a decent manner. Suppose a reporter on his regular job starts Monday morning.

These accidents often- result in chil­ ed with dead sturgeon, piled up by dren being blinded, or losing fingers the waves like piles of small logs. or hands, and thus going through life in a crippled condition. In some cases children are killed. Most of these accidents occur in country districts where children find the caps in the neighborhood of blast­ ing operations, where, in many cases, they have been left by careless work­ men. Playing with these capr, such as picking them with nails, hitting them with hammers, or throwing them into bonfires, usually results in an accident. Blasting caps are small copper cyinders used to detonate explosives in mines, quarries, construction work, and in blasting ditches, stumps and boulders. They are closed at one end and loaded with a sensitive and powerful explosive. Electric basting caps are similar to the regular caps except that they have wires attached and are detonated by an electric cur­ rent from a blasting machine. When the cap explodes small parti­ cles of copper fly in all directions. Any child nearby may be hurt. All parents and teachers are re­ quested to warn children not to play with these blasting caps, but when they do find one. to notify an officer of the law or other responsible adult A definite drop in the total number of beaver taken in Michigan this year was attributed directly to the terrific handicap of weather conditions des­ cribed by veteran trappers as the worst within memory. Heavy snow drifts forced trappers to hike miles on snowshoes to their trapping grounds where ice conditions were the worst since the season was re-opened on beaver in Michigan. Streams were unnavigable due to the heavy ice, and skis and snowshoes provided the only methods of trans­ portation. . Total catch was 6,422 beaver as compared to 7.668 in 1938. The num­ ber of trappers in the field, on the other hand, showed a definite trend upward with 1,969 braving the rigor­ ous winter conditions as compared to 1,761 in 1938. Complete reports from districts have not yet been “broken down" but nearly all showed a de­ crease in the total take. the opening of the fire season with the retreat of the snow line. - During Ute last week m"Xpril alone 115 fires were reported and 1,988 ac­ res were burned in the lower penIn­ sult alcoe.

Swan Creek, seven miles west of J Allegan, is regarded as one of the finest trout streams in southern Mich­ igan. Several excellent catches were reported there opening day. Estimates show that about 50 trout are planted in Michigan streams an­ nually for every fisherman, according to F. A. Westerman, head of the fish division of the Michigan department of conservation. Final figures for last year show about 5,000.000 brook trout, 2,500,000 brown trout and 1,150,000 rainbow trout planted in different streams for a total of about 8.650,000. Westerman estimates the total number of trout fishermen as at least 175,000. During 1938, 111,000 resi­ dent trout anglers’ licenses were is­ sued. There were 189,000 non-resi­ dent licenses issued. and all of these licensees were entitled to fish for trout if they so desired. At least 25 per cent or about 47,000 are conceded to have been trout fishermen. Added to. this total are all the boys and girls under 17 years of age who are able to fish without licenses. This group is regarded as a sizeable one by Westerman, who recalls that he “caught more trout per season before I was 17 than I ever did afterward." Still more anglers are expected on Michigan’s streams during 1939. More than 50,000 are believed to have been out on opening day. April 29, despite only moderately favorable weather conditions.

Pressure groups arc lobbying ener­ getically in a desperate last-minute effort to get a nice slice of state mon­ ey or to obtain further regulation of their affairs. Instead of putting a halt to a trend for bureaucratic con­ trol at Lansing, the legislature has created more commissions and bur­ eaus—a consistent record for recent administrations of be th major parties. The determination of Gov. Luren Dickinson to keep aloof of legislative squabbles has added to the prevailing complications. The governor has in­ sisted chiefly on a balanced budget, the fate of which is still in the bal­ ance. He has exercised the power of veto on a measure legalizing the dock­ ing of horses* tails, declaring tartly that “if God wanted horses to have shorter tails, he would have made them so." For nearly five months the legisla­ ture has been in continuous session, and lawmakers themselves concede that only until the last few days has there been anything of major import­ ance in the way of accomplishment Civil service has been emasculated. Labor legislation has dwindled to a faint echo of the late Gov. Fitzger­ ald’s program . Welfare control has been divided between supervisors and the state with 59.000.000 a year allo­ cated for the entire state. If the budget is balanced, it will be a mira­ cle of first magnitude, and a genuine feather-in-the-hat for Gov. Dickinson. Such is a minute picture of Lans­ ing today. •Unemployment L“w Change. Proposed by the state unemploy­ ment compensation commission and approved unanimously by the House is a bill which would reduce the wait­ ing period from three to two weeks for jobless workers and would give employer? the benefit of four years in application of their reserve fund. The act of 1937 provided that an employer, if the level of employment had been fairly stable and few em­ ployes had become jobless, could build up a reserve fund. After 1946 this employer might have to pay only the minimum. 1 per cent, instead of 3 per cent The tax would depend upon the extent of unemployment in his busi­ ness. The House measure would put the reserve fund benefit into effect in 1942 instead of 1946. But regardless of whether all em­ ployees were kept on the payroll year in and year out. each employer would still have to pay 1 per cent to the state. This payroll tax is the mini­ mum. ! state of Michigan than it received . back in benefits, state Representatives slapped $300,000 annual coat on the city of Detroit by passing a bill limit­ ing all municipal firemen to 72 hours a week. All Wayne county legisla­ tors except one, voted for it. This bill, now before the Senate, would affect all large municipalities which maintained firemen on full-time duty. City officials had denounced it as an invasion of home rule rights, while firemen pleaded that their hours of work should be reduced to conform with other classes of labor. . School Aid Delayed. Cagey in his thinking in Rep. John Espie of Clinton county chairman of the House ways and means commit­ tee. ■ To thwart a threatened “raid" by school interests on the state treasury, Chairman Espie has announced that the $37,000,000 school appropriation bill would be locked up in committee to make sure that other appropria­ tions were not boosted by legislators. He said: “Any money appropriated in excess of the committee's recommen­ dations will have to come out of the schools' funds.** Teachers’ retirement fund would receive $200,000 annually, instead of $325 000. An additional $100,000 would be granted for burial of old age assist­ ance recipients, making a new annua] total of $300,000 for this purpose. On April 30 a total of 76.999 persons were getting old age pensions, aver­ age $16.14 a month per client L®w School Graduates. Among the professional groups which seek to raise their standards by legislative enactment, the State Bar of Michigan (to which all attorneys must belong in order to practice within the state) recently sponsored a bill requiring attendance at an ac­ credited law school as a requisite for state license. The bill received only eight votes in the Senate. Twenty-two Senators voted against it. White-haired Sen. John VanderWerp of Muskegon, for 18 years a circuit judge, was responsible for the overwhelming defeat In an eloquent speech he declared that he had learned law in another attorney's office and pointed out a long list of Michigan attorneys who attained high standing in their profession despite a handicap of a lack of law school training.

IMS Washington Letter. SCHOOL NEWS By Clare E. Hoffman. Are We Cowards? Or Just Iftunb? Two events of the past week should arouse the fighting spirit of every loyal. American. In years gone by Congress has appropriated millions of dollars to subsidize the merchant marine which is operated by the United States Ag­ ency known as the Maritime Com­ mission. These ships are built with the aid of federal money on the the­ ory that, in time of war. they can be used on the high seas and in defense of our coast to protect us from our enemies, and the Commission is charged with the duty of hiring loyal American sailors to operate them. On the Pacific Coast, Harry Bridg­ es’ communistic CIO demands—mark the word, demands—that only sai­ lors supplied by trade union agencies be given employment on these ships; that is, that only sailors belonging to these unions be employed on these ships which will be a part of our de­ fense in time of war. Congress just appropriated over >700,000,000 to build the navy to de­ fend pur land. Now comes the CIO and calls a strike against the gov­ ernment Think of it! Here is a de­ mand that the government cannot employ those needed to defend it un­ less they join a union, pass through its organization on their way to the defense of our country. It is time that Uncle Sam. figura­ tive! yspeaking, takes Harry Bridges and all those who believe and act with him by the nape of the neck and the seat of the pants and pitch them Into the Pacific Ocean. Granted this demand, the next will be that. In time of war. htese sailors would navigate our ships, defend our ports, if and when Bridges gave the order*. It would be just as reasonable for the CIO to demand that no sol­ diers. no sailors, no officers, be per­ mitted with the army or the navy un­ til they had fir^t given allegiance and paid dues to a union. i\s the Washington Post obserbed. "To say that the unions will not 'merely take orders and carry them out’ when government service is In question is ridiculous." In time of war. it would be treason. Another illustration—John L. Lew­ is and his CIO demand—and the Ad­ ministration asks the mine owners to agree—that no one be employed in the bituminous coal mines unless he joins the United Mine Workers. In the coal strike, the questinn of wag­ es, hours or working conditions is not at issue. The sole demand is that, if coal be mined, it be dug only by members of Lewis’ United Mine Workers. No man, unless he joins Lewis’ union and pays tribute to him is to be permitted to dig coal, even though industry throughout the na­ tion be Closed because of lack of coal. Will Lewis and the Administration soon demand that no one anywhere works unless he joins some union ? Lewis, who receives >25,000 a year, lives in a mansion, is driven in a limousine by a chauffeur, insists that every miner, no matter how poor, contribute to his organization and, so far (May 12). the Administration has backed him up. The Governors of Kentucky and West Virginia have am nounced that, if men want to work without' paying tribute to Lewis, they will be permitted to do so. Just how much longer will the high-handed demands of one who as­ sumes to be a dictator over all labor be permitted to pass unchallenged ? Already throughout the country far­ mers, shippers of farm produce, are being told that they can not put the crops which they have planted, culti­ vated and harvested, on the city mar­ kets unless they pass through union hands. Try trucking your farm pro­ ducts into Chicago without a union driver. Will we sleep on and let this super­ government levy tribute upon us, destroy our liberty, take away our right to earn a livelihood, unless we meet its demands? Sincerely, Clare E. Hoffman. Your Representative. 48 MICHIGAN 4-H MEMBERS WIN FARM ACCOUNT AWARDS Forty-eight Michigan clubsters won >340.00 in prizes in the fifth National 4-H Farm Account contest for the 1938-39 year.

It was decided that the seniors should have Senior Privileges this year, beginning Friday afternoon. It will be unnnecessary for the seniors to attend school that afternoon, al­ lowing them time to prepare for the trip to Niagara Falls on Friday night. The understanding between teach­ ers and pupils is that every senior will be here in school to attend their classes, but at other times may re­ main at home. Those from the coun­ try will make some arrangement to be with friends or stay at school. There is to be no loitering around down town, as that would be abusing the privileges. Just as a reminder, the seniors would like to see you all down at the depot Friday night at 6:20 to see them off.

The lad had been driving his father’s car for a year or more. On this particular oc­ casion he coaxed the car from his father to attend a party in another town with the plea that others boys of his age had cars of their own or had access to the family car whenev­ er they wanted it. Finally, against bis better judgment, the father com­ plied with his son's wish. The father’s memory of his own youth was the determining factor, for he clearly recalled thwarted desires and the struggles he endured to keep up with his classmates. He was too much In sympathy with his son's de­ sires to refuse him. But he did not take in'o consideration the fact that all pleasures must be earned before they can be appreciated, and that to teach his sen the virtue of self-denial would have been a good lesson. [The Use Of Vulgar Language. The use of vulgar language in cer­ tain mixed groups seems to be quite common. Undue familiarity often drops the barriers of-decency and prepares the way for this unfortunate practice. Parents cannot be too careful in imparting and developing a sense of dedency and propriety In their chil­ dren. The young man or woman who has a natural distaste for vul­ garity exercises a restraining influ­ ence over his or her companions. Questionable stories and phrases have no place in a home where there are young people. The stamp of refine­ ment Is as priceless today as it was in the Victorian era. Y. M. C. A. Items Paul Rood, our former County Ag­ ent in Barry county, is donating and putting up an excellent new swing at Camp Barry this summer. Some other useful gifts are being consid­ ered. Camp Barry’s first big day for 1939 with all equipment in shape, will be June 30. when the ministers and their families from Barry and Eaton counties meet for their picnic.

There are 42 YMCA's in Michigan with 5.550 young men and boye and 115 employed men and 1500 members of committees.

"Ancient and Modern Necromancy, alias Mesmerism and Hypnotism, De­ nounced" will be the’ subject of the Lesson-Sermon in aJl Christian Sci­ ence churches throughout the world on Sunday, May 28. The Golden Text (Ezekiel li»): is: "Mine hand shall be upon the pro­ phets that see vanity, and that divine lies: . . . and ye shall know that I am the Lord God.” Among the Bible citations is this passage (Deuteronomy 10:20): "Thou shalt fear the Lord thy God; him shalt tnou serve, end to him shalt thou cleave, and swear by his name." Correlative passages to be read from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, in­ clude the following (p. 183): "Di­ vine Mind rightly demands man’s en­ tire obedience, affection, and strength. No reservation-is made for any lesser loyalty." . PINE LAKE AND CLEAR LAKE CAMPS OPEN Dairy Industries Com. Meets The Barry county Dairy Industr.es committee met at the county Agri­ cultural Agent’s office Tuesday even­ ing. May 23. for the purpose of plan­ ning its program which was started by holding the first annual Barry county Dairymen’s banquet in March. Allen W. Cox. chairman, reports that the committee voted to cooper­ ate with the Barry county Health Unit in improving the quality of milk and cream offered for sale by far­ mers. Through the help of five stu­ dent Sanitarians, who will be work­ ing in the county this summer, much work on quality of product* will be done, The creamery operators who met with the committee Tuesday night agreed to help train these students in their work and to cooperate with the Health Unit in the program to improve quality. Mr. Briggs, inspector from the State Bureau of Dairying, endorsed the program and told how it would help .to educate the producer so he could* comply with the qualifications of sanitation required by law govern­ ing the sale of milk and cream. The Dairy Industries committee voted to send a resolution to the Board of Supervisors, asking them to request a county-wide test for con­ tagious abortion (Bang’s Disease). The committee also voted to ask that nil persons or groups concerned with the purchase of dairy cattle for pro­ duction or breeding purposes, pur­ chase only animals which had been recently tested for Bang's Disease. chiefly grown in California and used largely for canning. When Uncle Sam is called in to grade asparagus, he Lakes into ac­ count the cleanliness. freshness, soundness,, thickness and length of stalk and the per cent of green color. Angular stalks tend to be tough andl stringy: united and spreading tips in­ dicate age; close compact tops and easily punctured stems are signs of freshness. When buying, the house­ wife will do well to consider al these points. Keeping It Fit. Asparagus is at its maximum fine flavor when freshly cut Deteriora­ tion occurs fast during the first twen­ ty-four hours, especially at a high temperature which reduces the sugar content and decreases the general ediiblity. If the stalks are not used immediately after purchasing, they should be put into the refrigerator or placed on the bunched ends in cold water away from warm currents of The Cooking Of It. After thoroughly washing the stalks and scraping the ends, tie them in bundles and stand them upright for the cooking—noses shiuld be out Of the water for the first five or six minutes. Asparagus, like moat other vegetables, will retain its natural col­ or tenderness and firmness if steam­ ed or cooked not too long in boiling­ water. Two pounds will make six av­ erage servings. Season with melted butter and serve on toast with butter and salt. Of course, the thrifty housewife will save the water in which the stalks were cooked for cream soup. Have you ever tried an asparagus omelet? It is so simple — merely heat the asparagus, either stalks or cut pieces, in a little butter and put between layers of omelet, or if your taste runs to salads, scoop the cen­ ters from well-shaped firm tomatoes, invert and chill. Sprinkle insides with salt and fill loosely with cottage cheese. Stand three or four aspara­ gus tips in each cup. Serve with & French dressing.

Confi­ dence and courage are the essentials of success in meeting present diffi­ culties; people must have faith."— Wayne, (Neb.) Herald. That •'McKay incldent" has been a boomerang to those who tried to damage the standing of a man who has done more to build up and pull Grand Rapids out of the de­ pression of the past six years than any other 25 men. JDven his political enemies admit that; which goes to prove that any man who fails to do anything worth while is a "no good," and any man who by energy and brains accumulates a fortune and gives employment to thousands is a "no good," in the eyes of the non­ thinking public. Henry Ford has been much more roundly criticized for making money than McKay ever was, but the fact McKay is a Repub­ lican and a former state treasurer, makes the Booth newspapers who cannot control him try in every way possible to damage the standing of a real newspaper man. A man who has already put half a million dollars in Greater Muskegon industry and with proper encouragement from the press and public, that would be only the beginning of what he might do for the Muskegons.—G. O. Curry, Ed­ itor and Publisher, Muskegon Heights Record. Character As*»**«ination, "Rest And Since Christ is the posComfort." sessor of everythng that the heart can want He invites us to come to Him and rest every desire with Him. A hungry world is seeking rest by many means. Christ has many competitors in this wonderful business cf offering rest to the weary, the laborer and^the bur­ dened. None of the worldly competi­ tors have arty samples of blessings to show. They will give liberally with one hand and take away with the next Christ alone gives rest; all others offer to sell rest The world exacts a toll for its deviltries; sin is sold at a price, and those who thirst for it are willing to pay that price. The soul that seeks to rest on the sea of life will find its bed very insecure when the storms of life begin to blow. Christ gives rest for time and for eternity. He will keep the soul in perfect calm when the tempest rages. Christ will give you rest concerning every dfficulty in your life. Christ will save your soul and give you rest about your sins. He will bring you to the Father and remove the fears about eternity. Will you come to Him and accept this rest from His loving hands? "Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest" Matt. 11.28.—By Irving Q. Wahlstrom. A Praying When Luren D. DickinGovcmor. son, veteran of many sessions of the state leg­ islature accepted the nomination for Lieutenant Governor before the last election, little did he think that he would be called upon to assume the duties of that office because of the passing of Governor Fitzgerald. Among the first rules which Gov­ ernor Dickinson promulgated when he came into the Governor s office was one that there should be no of­ ficial business transacted with him on the Sabbath. There were to be no interviews and no conferences upon state mutters so far as he was con­ cerned.. He has strictly adhered to his purpose to fill his accustomed place as a teacher in the Sunday school in the little white church in Eaton Center where he has served for more years than he cares to ad­ mit. In opening the services of his Sun­ day school class, a short time after he took the oath of office as Gover­ nor, he offered this simple but fervent prayer: "God, our Father, we are gathered here today with but one thought We seek Thy guidance. We ask for it in the affairs of our state, in our rela­ tionships with our neighbors and in the ordering of our homes. Give us, we ask. the utmost Thou hast to give. In the name of Christ Amen." Surely, when the Governor seeks such guidance, the affairs of the Commonwealth are in safe hands.— Christian Science Monitor. Doing Something The other night For Michigan. out at the Mich­ igan State college at East Lansing there was served a dinner made of strictly Michigan grown and produced foods. There was everything one’s heart might de­ sire, good things galore! The dinner was arranged by Mrs. Dora Stockman, chairman of the hor­ ticulture committee of the House of Representatives. She wanted the members of the legislature and scores of others present to know that this great state of ours is and can be suf­ ficient unto itself; that It produces everything we need and that our chief duty in order to help the growers and producers is to buy Michigan produc­ ed goods. The event was a tremendous suc­ cess. Many present did not know that there is manufactured in Mich­ igan a macaroni made from Michigan grown wheat that is equal to any brand of macaroni made anywhere in the country. $ The salt, the sugar, the meat, des­ sert, everything served was a Mich­ igan product It is the belief of Mrs. Stockman that if Michigan people will insist up­ on using Michigan grown products and Michigan manufactured foods, that the farmers and workers of the state will be immensely benefited. She is urging that the state adver­ tise its goods within the state and create an cnthusiaslc support of Michigan growers and producers and her first step in this direction was a tremendous success. And Mrs. Stockman happens to be one hundred per cent right!—-Elton.R. Eaton in the Plymouth Mail. Begins to look as if the Congress will definitely put a stop to the Presi­ dent’s scheme of buying beef for the navy and other branches of the gov­ ernment from the Argentine to the detriment of the American farmers. The House already has included in a bill a provision which requires that all foodstuffs purchased for the navy shall be American bred and process­ ed. The Senate Appropriations com­ mittee has approved that provision and there seems little likelihood that the full Senate will turn it down. This, of course, is as it should be. Just what the President thought he was doing when he told Secretary Swanson of the navy that he should buy the Argentine beef is rather be­ yond understanding. All during his term in office Frank­ lin D. Roosevelt has been seeking to raise the price of farm products. He has held that this is the only munner by which the American farmer may be given a fair break. Toward tills end the President has urged and ac­ tually has been paying farmers to plow under cotton, wheat and corn, to kill pigs and cattle, to limit the acreage under production and doing about everything else possible to cre­ ate a scarcity of farm products and thus raise the prices of them. He has been paying farmers for not raising their products and penalizing those who refuse to conform to the restric­ tions. The result of this has been to in­ crease the importation of almost ev­ ery sort of farm product. We have been importing cattle and wheat from the Argentine, dairy products Buy American. from the countries of Northern Eu­ rope and have forfeited our cotton market to other nations. But now the President goes the other step and orders tnat beef shall be imported from the Argentine with which to feed the navy. The reason for it he said, was that Argentine beef was'su­ perior, to American beef and the cost of it was much below the bids from American producers and processors. Perhaps this is the greatest direct mistake the President has made since he entered office. Many of the other errors were not quite so immediately apparent but the farmers of the great cattle producing states can see very readily what is happening to them when the government buys Argentine beef with which to feed the navy. That hits them close at home. The result is a great uprising in the farm states an uprising which won’t sub­ side for some time to come, unless we are greatly mistaken. The Senate proposes to go even farther than the House yet has in forcing the President to buy Amer­ ican. The House bill orders that on­ ly American grown products shall be purchased for the navy. The Senate proposes to include the army, the coast guard and everything else that is fed by the government And this is as it should be. The American fanner never is going to prosper if, while curtailing his own production, we go to the Argentine or elsewhere and buy food products, leaving the American farmer with that much greater surplus on his hands.—Grand Rapids Herald.

He was forced to wear cast­ off and made-over clothes, and had to reside with relatives who did not ev­ en profess to care for him. It seemed to this child that every­ one did his utmost to make his life miserable. The adults of the com­ munity not only prohibited their chil­ dren from playing with him, but they constantly referred to the stain on his birth. Consequently the other children of his own age. taking their cue from the elders, tormented him so persist­ ently that he stole five dollars and ran away. His flight called the case to the attention of the juvenile au­ thorities.

They find that as the light of the truth about God and man is brought to shine upon their problems, the way out always appears. Like Peter in those olden days, they learn to "arise up quickly" when the angel of the Lord comes to their waiting thought. In the textbook of Chris­ tian Science an enlightening defini­ tion of "angels’ 'is given, as follows (p. 581): “God’s thoughts passing to man; spiritual Intuitions, pure and perfect; the inspiration of goodness, purity, and immortality, counteractng all evil, sensuality, and mortal­ ity. Equipped with this understand­ ing concerning the nature of “the an­ gel of the Lord.' ’is it not reasonable for one to expect release from dis­ turbing and imprisoning beliefs, < whatever nature? There are many helpful points in the Bible story related, as one views them in the light of Christian Sci­ ence. One is that an angel awakened Peter. Indeed, one must be awaken­ ed from the mesmerism that would cause him to believe in any power op­ posed to God. Only then is he ready to listen for God’s voice, and there­ by learn to obey Him. As the angel said, "Arise up quickly," so we learn through the study of Christian Sci­ ence to “arise up quickly" when phases of evil confront us.

Pastors of the dissident churches say the new united conference may or may not have the legal right to take over their buildings and grounds but that they do not intend to ‘give up without a test case. Loss of their property would not change their de­ cision to not join the union, the pas­ tors say. The churches are the Hick­ ory Corners church. ' the Bunne! church on the Hickcry Comers cir­ cuit, the South Pennfield church and the Assyria church. The Rev. Henry Campbell of Assyria, pastor of the South Pennfield and Assyria church­ es, said Saturday after conferences with attorneys that "considerable I doubt exists as to whether the new conference has a legtfi right to the property deeded to the former Metho­ dist Protestant denomination." Lead­ ers of the churches' opposed to join­ ing the union say they believe it is the beginning of the formation of the great apostate world church describ­ ed In the Scriptures, and that they dislike the growing liberalism in Methodist leadership.—Battle Creek Enquirer News.

While every day throughout the year the chain stores feature Mich­ igan products in thousands of retail outlets, during this drive millions of dollars worth of additional Michigan products will be purchased by the chains and featured in the chain stores. And this is quite natural, for the chain stores are an integral part of the Wolverine State. Chain store employees—all residents of Michigan—are glad of this opportunity to help speed the wheels of Michigan’s industry and thus to help create additional jobs for their fellow workers of Michigan. As a result of this campaign, textiles, shoes, machinery, furniture, fruits, vegetables and countless other products of our farms and factories—the bone and sinew of Michigan’s prosperity—will move out into vast channels of distribution. Thus, too, millions of con­ sumers throughout the state, by purchasing Michigan products in the chain stores during “Michigan Days”, will help create new jobs for Michigan workers . .. and save money on their purchases as well. Every purchase of Michigan products you make in a chain store during the next ten days will be a boost for the prosperity of Michigan. Buy this week from the countless splendid offerings of Michigan grown and Michigan manufactured items of every description. D BUY DURING MICHIGAN DAYS! More Jobs for Michigan Workers ! More Business for Michigan Farms and Factories! Greater Savings for Michigan Consumers!

The local Independents kept their record clean in the Eaton league by defeating Vermontville Sunday, 9 to 5. Kilpatrick, the Vermontville pit­ cher, had Varney's' batters pretty well baffled in the early part of the game, but they commenced solving h£s’delivery later and chased him from tiie mound in the sixth, with his own wildness and some costly errors contributing somewhat to his defeat Gam finished the game for Vermont­ ville. Nashville scored one run in the opening inning, one each in the fourth and fifth, five in the sixth and one in the seventh. “Dutch” Gage did the hurling for Nashville and allowed eight hits, all of which counted in the scoring, Ver­ montville bunching their safeties for two tallies in the second inning, one in the third and one each in the eight and ninth, the final score being a homer by "Cricket" Faust. Nashville got 11 safe hits off Kil­ patrick and Gam. with Diamante. Dull and Gage each having two sin­ gles to their credit. Next Sunday's game will be played at Lacey Lake. Local Eastern Stars Were At Grand Ledge Mrs. Carrie Campbell One Of Visiting Officers For Degree Work. 150 Were Present. On Friday evening occurred the forty-seventh annual reunion of the Alumni association of the Nashville school, when 128 members and their iriends gathered at the school audi­ torium for the usual banquet, pro­ gram and dancing. The dinner was prepared and ser­ ved by members of the junior class, the menu consisting of fruited cock­ tail, creamed chicken, mashed pota­ toes. carrots and peas, cucumber tomato salad, rolls, jelly, ice cream, cake and coffee. Following the feed, the Alumni were greeted by their president, Mrs. Vidian Roe, and Von W. Fumiss was introduced as the toastmaster for the evening. Mr. Fumiss conducted the usual roll call, and then presided over the program in his usual capable manner. Kenneth Mead of Detroit, in his ad­ dress of welcome to the Class of '39, painted an unusual picture of the op­ portunities awaiting the young peo­ ple of today, especially in the indus­ trial field. To illustrate his remarks, he exhibited several interesting arti­ cles, the results of recent research work such as rubber and glass made from coal, air and water; twine and cloth made from glass; wool yarn produced from skim milk, etc. His son, Kenneth. Jr., 'president of the graduating class, gave the response. Hon. John C. Ketcham of Hastings entertained the group with some rem­ iniscences of his school days in Nashville, paying a real tribute to his superintendent, A. L. Bemis, and showing a number of photographs of the early 90's, which afforded much amusement. During the course of the program groups of vocal solos were pleasingly rendered by Mrs. Grace Pultz of Nashville and Mrs. Weta Marentetto Jf Detroit, with Mrs. C. J. Betts as accompanist.At the business session, the offic­ ers' reports were heard, and the fol­ lowing officers were elected for the coming year: President—Grayton Andrews. Vice president—Ernest Mead.

THURSDAY, JUNE 8,1939 A Little In an address to the Specie Rhodes scholars of Oxford Sir James Barrie made this dramatic statement: "The beginning of all you are to be lies in you —■ a little speck that is to grow while you Bleep, while you are awake; and that in the fullness of time, according to whether you control it. or it controls you, is to be the making of you, or is to destroy you." The speck of success! It is in ev­ ery man. If he permits it to control him he will be but the dwarf of what he might have been. If he controls, expends and unfolds his speck of po­ tential power he may become a giant of achievement. Rembrandt expanded his speck in­ to the genius of a master painter. Lincoln made his speck grow into an immortal statesman. Every leader mokes the best of the speck of suc­ cess within him. Those who do noth­ ing about it never arrive. A man's destiny depends upon what he does with the little speck that Iles within him.—The Silver Lining. appropriation measures were adopted by both the House and the Senate. He then will call into his office leaders of the House and Senate to find out what their "motives” were in adjourning without bringing ex­ penditures for the next two years within antiiclpated revenue. He made it plain that he would not hesitate to call a special session if the budget cannot be balanced in any other way. •I don't want to give any thought to new revenue until I find out what the legislators had in mind when they went home without balancing the budget," the Governor said. ------ O------’ Henry G. Weaver of the customer research staff of General Motors, has found a way to describe an element in a business transaction that here­ tofore has not been adequately des­ cribed. Business, of course, is exchange. In the simplest transaction a customer gives up five cents and gets a pack­ age of chewing gum. Along with the gum he gets what Mr. Weaver says the psychologists call 'emotional satisfaction." This emotional satis­ faction is a part of all our personal dealings. . In business, if we can give our cus­ tomers emotional satisfaction,, they are almost certain to continue trad­ ing with us. , ‘Some of my highbrow friends," says Mr. Weaver, "’tell me that peo­ ple very rarely buy 'just things’— what they really buy is the emotional satisfaction that the things bring with them. Frequently they will go out of their way to buy from one merchant instead of from another nujrchant, even though both, mer­ chants hand out exactly the same ar­ ticle at exactly the same price—but one of them throws in a larger mea­ sure of this intangible thing called emotional satisfaction." Often when we get a new word to describe an old idea, it helps to fresher, the old idea and get ft back into use. This idea of giving customers emo­ tional satisfaction has gold in it. It has kept a king Bitting on the Eng­ lish throne for centuries while kings have toppled in many other lands. It has kept out-of-the-way one-chair barber shops in business throughout the depression while convenient pre­ tentious shops have folded. Authors, playwrights, orchestras, singers, and radio announcers who give the customers emotional satis­ faction have not known there was a depression.—Imperial Magazine. the early morning brmrs legislators and their friends visited there oases of food and drink. Except for om notey group the Lawmakers held their drinking close to downright respectability. There was no yelling, no impromptu speech making over the public address sys­ tem and no fist fights. One group passed away time be­ tween sessions around the house pi­ ano,, singing old-time songs and church hymns." Yen, we will admit it was an im­ provement that there were no fist fights, no downright disgraceful spec­ tacles in either of the legislative chambers. But is it enough improve­ ment? It Lb also weU to think about that . We are trying these days to give children a better concept of govern­ ment What intelligent public school child, after the most devoted cultiva­ tion of his respect for government, would hold fast to his ideals after reading the Detroit newspaper ac­ count o fthls year’s 'improved” legis­ lative closing? Most college fraternities today rig­ idly restrain their members from bringing liquor into their houses. In the better fraternity bouses even alumni have to leave their liquor out­ side when they visit The fraterni­ ties make it clear they are not trying to regulate the lives or habits of their members.

Alguire of Gladstone, as Divisional Head of District No. 5, Dept of State, which embraces the entire Upper Peninsula.

A federal communications commis­ sioner issued a public blast against radio blood and thunder dramas which, he said, were very bad for small children. He Immediately re­ ceived a deluge of mail. About half the mail was from chil­ dren who disagreed with him very sharply. The rest were from parents who disagreed with him with even more fervor than the children had shown their disapproval. This is approximately what the commissioner expected. No one who has observed small boys listening in­ tensely to a radio can question that youngsters devour blood-curdling ra­ dio thrillers greedily. In this case, at least, the parents knew beat. The child who steals a dog is to be more pitied than condemned. One small boy was brought into court for constantly stealing valuable dogs and hiding them tn the garage at home. The child was attracted to all kinds of |ets and simply could not resist appropriating any he found in the street. More serious consequences were averted when the judge advised th mother that it was necessary to give the boy a pet. Few parents realize the cravings the average child has for something alive to love and to call his own. Caring for a pet under parental guid­ ance instills kindness, unselfishness and a sense of responsibility in prac­ tically every girl or boy. No boy is completely happy without a faithful dog as a friend and companion. The two are inseparable. —E. G.

There are many parents who would prefer to have their children ignorant of the thousand and one evils which abound in all parts of the world. Up to a certain extent, such a prefer­ ence is undesirable. But, to be fore­ warned is to be forearmed- Normal children cannot be harmed by know­ ing what is going on around them. Evils are best conquered only by knowing them for what they are and thus being able to combat their influ­ ences. All responsible-minded par­ ents should make a sincere effort to study the temptations that beset the paths of youngsters and equip them through training and education to meet and overcome all forms of evil.

Such magni­ fying of the Lord assures Increased happiness, joy, health and harmony. It is the way of holiness. The world is largely engaged in magnifying evil, the supposititious opposite of God, and therefore is not following the advice of the Psalmist to ‘magnify the Lord." On every hand we see evil emphasized and ex­ alted in power, or raised up as some­ thing to be feared. Mortal thought leans towards the acceptance of more than one God, believing in the reality of both good and evil. The temptation is to accept evil into our conscious­ ness admitting its claims to reality, and dwelling upon it and magnifying it. To follow this course leads to sin. sorrow, and disease, for it breaks the First Commandment (Exodus 20:3), “Thou shalt have no other gods be­ fore me." Since God is good, to mag­ nify and exalt evil in our thought is in belief to separate ourselves from God, divine Principle, from all that means happiness and harmony. Christian Science teaches that God. good is All-in-all, and that evil is nothing. If we accept this teaching, it is p*laln that the way to harmon­ ious and healthy living Is to see evil’s nothingness, and magnify good be­ cause it is the only reality.

MAY. 1989. The outlook for winter grains, hay, and pastures in Michigan on May 1 was reported above average for that date. Frequent cold rains and snow during the first half of April retarded vegetative growth and delayed all kinds of farm work including the seeding of spring groins and spray­ ing of fruit trees. April precipltaton was generally above normal in the southern half of the state hut more or less deficient in the northern dis­ tricts. Weather conditions during late April and early May were more favorable for field operations. Fruit crop prospects in Michigan on May 1 were reported to be unusually good but sub-freezihg temperature on May 12th resulted in some damage, the ex­ tent of which has not’ yet been fully determined. Early reports indicate that sweet cherries suffered more than did other tree fruits; losses were relatively small in the southwestern counties and greatest in the northern counties of the Lower Peninsula. Re­ turns to maple producers were about 60 per cent greater tills year than last, largely the result of increased production per tree. Milk production per cow in herd continued at a rela­ tively high level although pastures were more backward than usual. Egg production per farm reporting was about 5 per cent less than a year ago, both the average size of flock and rate of laying being below a year ago and the 10-year average. The aver­ age number of chicks and young chic­ kens on correspondents’ farms was somewhat below a year ago but some­ what larger than average for May 1. * The state's winter wheat crop came through the winter with a minimum of freeze damage and the condition as of May 1 was reported 8 points above average and 1 point above a year ago. Growth was later than us­ ual in getting under way, because of the abnormally cold weather during the greater part of March and April, but the crop made excellent>progress during late April and early May. The outlook on May 1 was for a state av­ erage yield of about 22 bushels per acre compared with 21.5 bushels per acre in 1938 and the 10-year average of 19.9 bushels per acre. Total pro­ duction was estimated at 15,598,000 bushels, which is the smallest crop since 1934, although not much small­ er than the 10-year (1928-37) aver­ age of 15,817.000 bushels. The acreage for harvest, 709.000, is 21 per cent smaller than last year, and 29 per cent less than two years ago. Aban­ donment the past winter from natural causes was rather light Diversion of wheat acreage from grain, for con­ formity with Adjustment allotments is a new factor in the difference be­ tween seeded acreage and acreage re­ maining for harvest. The harvested acreage is expected to be 5 per cent less than the seeded. While the acreage seeded to rye last fall was 10 per cent greater than in the preceding year, a larger pro­ portion is to be plowed down and pas­ tured rather than dit for grain. Of the 195,000 acres sown for all pur­ poses in the state last fall, it is esti­ mated that 117,000 acres, or 60 per cent, will be harvested for grain. On the basis of May 1 condition, grain production, estimated at 1,521,000 bushels, will be about 2 per cent less than a year ago and nearly 20 per cent below the 10-year average. Hay and pasture prospects in Mich­ igan weer reported above average at the beginning of the month. Follow­ ing two years of large hay produc­ tion, the stocks of old hay on farms is greater than usual. Hay stocks on Michigan farms was estimated at 598.000 tons compared with the 10­ year average of 366,000 tons. The condition of the early potato crop in the 10 southern states as of May 1 averaged 76 per cent of nor­ mal, or 1 point below a year ago and 1 point above the 10-year (1928-37) average of 75 per cent, Potatoes in North Carolina and Louisiana still show the effects of damaging frosts earlier in the season and poor grow­ ing weather in North Florida and in Texas have reduced yield prospects in those areas. On the other hand, growers in South Carolina, Georgia, sweet cherries suffered more than did other tree fruits. ? For the country as a whole, May 1 prospects indicated fair to good fruit crops In most sections of the country. Total indicated production of peach­ es in the 10 early southern peach states is 16.191 000 bushels, compared with 16,070.000 bushels produced in 1938. and the 10-year (1928-37» aver­ age production of 14,466,000 bushels. In California orchards the set of Clingstone and Freestone varieties is good. April freezes caused considera­ ble damage to the peach crop in Pcnsnylvania. Indication* pointed to good crops of pears in the Pacific Northwest and California. Cherry prospects appeared good in all im­ portant producing states except Ida­ ho and Utah, where the c?op was se­ verely damaged by frost. Final reports for the 1938 sugar bet crop, collected from factories op­ erating within the state, Indicate that after planting 128,000 acres, Michigan farmers harvested 122,000 acres, ob­ taining 1,005.000 tons of beets at an average yield of 8.2 tens per acre. Average plantings for the 10-years (1927-36) were 106.000 acres with 96,000 acres harvested to produce 751,000 tons of beets at the rate of 7.7 tons per acre. The 1938 crop in Michigan netted a total of 171,000 tons of refined sugar compared with 79,000 tons the previous year and 110,000 tons as a 10-year average. Washington Letter. By Clare E. Hoffman. The Heat Was On. For long, Townsendites have been demanding that the House pass H. R. 2, commonly known as the Townsend Plan. More recently, Dr. Townsend’s personal representative. Congressman Hendricks, substituted H. R. 6378 and, still later, H. R. 6466. The Doctor wrote a letter which was read to the House in open session on June 1, which in substance stated that any attempt to recommit the bill for amendment would be considered a move against the Townsend plan. The Doctor insisted upon his infalli­ bility; insisted that the House take his bill without modification. This the House refused to do. His bill would have imposed a tax upon practically, every working man to give a pension to many persons over sixty years of age, even though they did not need it. It was so un­ reasonable, .so defective in its terms, that, notwithstanding the Doctor's dire threats, he could muster but 97 votes, while 302 voted against it; and, had the 97 been free to vote without pressure, it is doubtful whether a baker s dozen would have supported the bill Every Congressman desires to rep­ resent the people of his district; but all too often voters, without giving the matter due consideration, wire or write, demanding that their represen­ tative vote in a certain way, when, were the responsibility placed upon their individual shoulders, they would not act in the manner indicated. As an illustration, just before the vote was taken, I received a telegram which reads as follows: “90 per cent of business people In South Haven favor the passage of H. R. 2. It is worth a trial as a remedy for unemployment and business re­ covery. Signed—J. W. Johnson, E. C. Dickerson, Chas. Tate, T. P. McKimmie, Warren S. Dodge, Jacob Niffenegger,” and doubtless many others would have signed a like statement. Now, in the first place, H. R. 2 was not up for consideration. It had been withdrawn by Dr. Townsend. In the second place, I doubt whether 90 per cent of the business people of South Haven are in favor of what would amount to at least an additional 3 per cent tax on all business, on prac­ tically all wage-earners. Is it true that the people of South Haven­ merchants, manufacturers, workers, clerks and professional men—want an additional tax Imposed upon every dollar they made in order that people over sixty, whether they need it or not, shall have a pension? I do not think so; and I did not vote for this bill. Next week will probably see amend­ Oklahoma report early potatoes are ments to the Social Security Act making good progress.

That new buying will amount to several ’ million dollars is undeniable.” Maynard declared that toe chain store campaign should cre­ ate thousands of new jobs. “By clearing merchants* shelves and warehouses of Michigan prod­ ucts," he added, "we are assuring increased production, which means more jobs for the workers of our state." . ; The chairman declared that ranking executives of the import­ ant Michigan chain store groups had spent several weeks arrang­ ing for toe drive. • “Michigan products, promoted in this drive," he continued, “will find permanently increased mar- Farmers and manufacturers, consumers and wage-earners, con­ gressmen and state officials joined in endorsing the campaign, term­ ed by business men “the greatest state-wide promotion of Michigan products ever undertaken by any group of retailers in Michigan " Governor Dickinson in his offi­ cial proclamation of “Michigan Days” called on "all Michigan cit­ izens to give their wholehearted support to this drive that it may succeed in its purpose of increas­ ing prosperity in our state." “Public Spirited" I The governor declared that the drive was a “publi* spirited" ef­ fort to create new markets for "superior products of Michigan farms" and said that fanners needed such a drive to increase -their cash income.

I OFF TO A GOOD START And The 83 counties of the state have been vouchered $2,000,000 from state highway revenue* for the mainten­ ance of-former township road*. Bar­ ry county’s share is $27,589.82, and Eaton county’s share of this amount to $26,353.49. This payment of $2,000,000 repre­ sents the first half of the $4,000,000 annual return to the couuties under the McNltt act abolishing the old county rbad system; The McNitt law went into effect in 1Q31 and each year since that time the counties have been allocated the stated sum for the maintenance of the roads taken over from the townships. The counties now maintain more than 62,­ 000 miles of roads that were formerly under the supervision of the town­ ships. The current payments raised the total highway revenue returns to counties and cities to $13,012,584 for the five months in 1939.

The rules required that I wear striped trousers and a cutaway coat. I have neither, so was on the outside, looking .n. But the King and Queen appear to be very nice people; in fact, would make good Americans. Believe It Or Not. Charles H. White, information writ­ ers Project No. 11, WPA, a former Communist, a member of the Workers Alliance testified that, with the en­ dorsement of Herbert Benjamin, one of the heads of the Workers Alliance, he was sent to Russia on money fur­ nished by District No. 6 of the Com­ munist Party, of which Benjamin was secretary, where he was instructed in sharpshooting building of barricades, destruction of tanks and street fight­ ing; then came back to America to spread what he had learned and to aid in establishing a Negro Republic in the cotton belt He.further said that the Workers Alliance was dominated by the Communist Party; that 90 per cent of its members were Commun­ ists and that others joined because it is patronized by WPA and public officials. Another witness testified that it was through the Workers Alliance that the Communist Party recruited a part or its membership. It is the same organization in whose activities Eleanor Roosevelt, wife of the President, took part last week. You will remember that Browder, head of the Communists, endorses Roosevelt for a third term, as do the Communists, who endorsed Murphy in the last Michigan state election. Have you forgotten that the President works hand in glove with John L. Lewis, whose organization with the aid of the President's Labor Board, has deprived thousands of their civil liberties? When will our people learn the truth and understand what is happening? Many of the things I told you four years ago about Roosevelt and the New Deal and at which many laugh­ ed, are now admitted facts. Others which you do not now believe, time will demonstrate to be true. But again I write — An aroused public sentiment can stop or at least delay some of these subversive activities. A Change Needed. With a deficit every single year since the New Deal came in; with the number of unemployed at least as great as when the New Deal took ov­ er the problem;' with the spending program an admitted failure; with manufacturers and businessmen gen­ erally being harassed by unfair pro­ visions of the Social Security, the Wage-Hour and the Wagner laws it is time that the national government at least begin to carry on its business as any sane individual would manage A Mt. Clemens fishing boat livery­ man has hit upon a plan for promot­ ing the renting of his craft to people seeking big muskies—an idea others perhaps could use to advantage. Everett E. Tucker, supervisor of the district for the department of conservation .has reported that AJ. Gozow, operator of a boat livery on the Clinton river, recently checked in 41 muskellunge cauhgt by fishermen who had used his boats. The liveryman keeps complete re­ cords of these catches, setting down the date, size, number, besides the name of the angler. It was said the fish averaged from 10 to 40 pounds, with a majority leaning toward the maximum weight — a factor well worth setting into writing to encour­ age future boat renters. Oil permits granted to drillers in VanBuren county accounted for half of the number granted during the week ending June 7, and held south­ western Michigan oil and gas fields out in front of new operations in the state. Latest figures compiled by the geo­ logical survey division of the depart­ ment of conservation showed that VanBuren county operators received 14 of the 27 permits in the first week of June. The county likewise led the previous week, which had set a new high for the state, with 50 permits issued. Leadership of the southwestern field in new wells established was shown by 25 of the 27 total grants being confined to nearly counties. In­ cluding Kent with 5, Allegan with 4, Ottawa and Muskegon, one each. Thirteen of the 14 VanBuren per­ mits were in Bloomingdale and Co­ lumbia townships, where shallow drilling predominated. The mammoth .an extinct prehis­ toric animal larger than the elephant, once lived in what is now Michigan. School days are coming to close for another year in most municipalities of the state and this is expected to signal the beginning of' heavy sum­ mer attendance at Michigan state parks. The march on the state's 56 park areas by vacation-bound families may push up to a near-record the number of park visitors, according to the parks division of the department of conservation, in charge of park management Open since Decoration Day parks already have had a big turnout Be­ fore they close on Labor Day, an at­ tendance greater than 1938 is antici­ pated. An unusually large registra­ tion of campers so far this season g ves park officials reason to say thia Good weather and improved econ­ omic conditions wpuld strengthen the chance of a bigger participation in park advantages. Cold weather throughout June and August of the 1938 season held enough people to their homes to drop the total attend­ ance to slightly more than 8,000,000. The 9,700.000 visitor figure for 1937 was the peak in the steady incline the parks have experienced. Park officials suggest the reminder that the persons setting out for a tour of his state can find a feeling of home in using the park properties, especial­ ly if they consider that the parks are owned by the people themselves, for their own use and convenience. Dotted throughout'both peninsulas, parks are within easy driving of any section. Official state highway maps show a list of the parks and describe the facilities in each, and detailed In­ formation can be obtained from the conservation department, which has headquarters l?ere. The puylic, through tax revenues, has paid for a number of the 75 parks and park sites held by the state, but 66 of these have been gifts of private persons. Purchases have been con­ centrated In the southeastern and southwstem sections, to provide re­ creation areas when other means of acquisition was insufficient for needs. Representatives of Upper Peninsula municipalities and the department of conservation will discuss at Crystal Falls next week plans for'handling the tax delinquent properties which will revert to public ownership begin­ ning next November. Fred P. Struhsaker, chief of the lands division of the conservation de­ partment. has accepted an Invitation to meet with officials of cities and villages in this region on Thursday, June 22 at the annual conference of the Michigan Municipal League, to be held there June 22 and 23. Policies of the conservation com­ mission m its management of proper­ ties surrendered for non-payment of taxes in recent years will come in for study, together with the additional problems anticipated from recent state tax sale legislation. Large areas of homesite develop­ ments on the fringe of municipalities, as well as properties of mining and other industrial concerns which have abandoned their holdings, will become state owned through operation of tax sale law. Municipal governments have piled up large credits against many of these properties for the services they have rendered without receiving pay­ ment. and city officials have expressed a desire to have an agent of the state join them in their discussion of this major question. Struhsaker Indicated it was possible a plan could be arranged for disposi­ tion of the properties on a basis satis­ factory to public and private inter­ ests alike. Much of the tax-reverted land, he believes, will be devoted to public purposes, and owned and ad­ ministered by the local governmental unit. Community forests, recreational areas and plots of ground for small­ scale farming by welfare families are among the uses that could be made of such lands. Such developments, he said, would do much toward restoring property valuations in communities which have suffered from over-expan­ sion in “boom” days. Any plans developed at the Upper Peninsula session can be applied to much of the problem of tax delin­ quency in the cut-over upper half of the southern peninsula, Struhsaker declared. Of the 176 acres of forest fires for the entire stats in the latest report period. 140 acres were located in the district Including the couuties of Os­ coda. Alcona, Iosco and Ogemaw. The previous week had seen only 21 acres of fiie in the state. The June 4 total brought the state fire acreage so far this year up to 43.389 caused by 530 fires. came out of the chicken house. Then for six nights a watch was maintained and .no fox showed up to reward the marksman. McCrary spent two at those nights perched otu the ridge at the chicken coop.

After two or three shocks, animals associate the shock with proximity to the wire. Even when feed tempts them, the wire holds them back. With heavy coated animals and especially sheep and hogs, the barbed wire usually is necessary in order to contact sensi­ tive skin. BLAME RED FOX FOR (HICK LOSS A certain sly fox somewhere in Kalamazoo county likely is redfaced laughing at effors to control his chic­ ken killing raids. Nearly 100 half-grown chickens on the Kellogg demonstration farm op­ erated by M. S. C. near Augusta have had their heads or throats nipped fa­ tally by the marauder. .Although he times h!s early morning raids almost by the clock the fox is “just too smart" in the opinion of C. M. Mc­ Crary, farm superintendent. Listen to this and decide whether to laugh with the fox or sympathize with McCrary: Monday. May 22, 31 small chicks either had their heads lopped off or their breasts torn at 4:10 a. m. in the early dawn. Some were buried with their feet sticking out of the ground, evidently so that Mr. Fox could re­ turn for them if live ones were not later available.

Yet at south side of coops the fox left 22 dead chicks, caught as they Laboratories ’MotionPictureCamera Can Take4000Photographs a Second Methods used by some fishermen in attempting to circumvent the law frequently bear the mark of genius, according to enforcement officers who have seen a lot of tricks tried. A towerman stationed at Boyne City by the department of conservation re­ cently discovered a new one to put in his book. While patrolling the Jordan river. Towerman Harry Harrington encoun­ tered a fisherman whom he recogniz­ ed as a prominent citizen of a nearby community. The man was fishing off the bank of the river. When he began to talK to the man Harrington saw the man's small dau­ ghter approaching, carrying a half­ grown kitten. Just then the fisher­ man, in plain view of Harrington, tossed a Ive inch trout back into the stream—a trout which, the officer could sec. was deader tnan its prover­ bial kin, the mackerel. Exclaimed the fisherman: "Why the poor little fellow is dead!” "Why did you throw him back. Daddy.” usped the girl. "You said that my Smokey could have him"— and looking at towerman, added ear­ nestly. “Smokey just loves fish.” Forest fires reported by the con­ servation department district head­ quarters at Mio accounted for most of the increase in acreage affected by fire during the week ending June 4 as compared with the previous week.

Farmington (MPA)—Roger Bud­ row editor of the Farmir.gton Enter­ prise was seated at his desk shortly before midnight .writing a story about two burglaries. His mind was Intent upon his story, when he heard a rat­ tling noise at the back of the build­ ing. The editor called the police booth, but no one answered, so he called the deputy sheriff, reporting prowlers at the newspaper office. A few minutes later, a local police of­ ficer answered the call left at the po­ lice booth, and explained he was ab­ sent from the booth because he was trying doors in the business district among them the Farmington Enter­ prise. A Fair Of Old Socks. Turner (MPA)—Just a pair of old socks but their owner, Mrs. Mannle Smith, isn’t complaining about them. In fact she finds they offset the pres­ ent high coat of hosiery. The stock­ ings have been worn in her family for 141 years. First worn at a wedding in 1797, they have been handed down in. the Smith family to be worn by brides on their wedding day. Cop Fined, Then Dies. St Louis (MPA)—With a record of 34 years as a law enforcement officer, serving us city policeman and then deputy sheriff, L. W. VanOstran of Bath was arrested here recently on a traffic violation charge. He paid a fine in justice court on a Friday, and on Saturday afternoon he died at his sister’s home in Bancroft He was 76 years old. Loud Fire Alarm. Lapeer (MPA)—hotgun shells are the new type of fire alarm developed here, quite by accident recently. The Arthur Blue family was awakened about 2:30 one morning by the ex­ ploding of shotgun shells in an a<£ joining room. Looking for the cause of the explosions, the family found the house on fire. Expensive Fuel. . Elsie (MPA) — Rather expensive heat was enjoyed, and later lamented, by Ernest Blunt when $311 worth of checks were thrown by mistake into the Blunt furnace. They had been cashed thkt afternoon in the store where he is employed and Blunt had taken them home for listing. Allegan (MPA)—Thieves who re­ cently rummaged Miss Betty John­ son’s car took their medicine literal­ ly, and as a result, officers were look­ ing for someone becoming suddenly healthy. Miss Johnson is a family health counsellor, and among other things taken from her car was a goodly supply of cod liver oil. Later visiting another car, the thieves left some of Miss Johnson’s things—but they kept the cod liver oil. 'South Lyon (MPA) — Emerson Vickery of Vanderbilt was surprised to see a tin can bouncing erratically along the highway. Investigating, he found a large and somewhat hys­ terical woodchuck attached to the can, caught by the rough edges of the open top. Apparently it had stuck its head in, lured by the smell of food. Vickery released the animal. Let's Get Together. St. Johns (MPA) — “Let's get to­ gether” might well be the theme of St. Johns city park this summer. Re­ cently it was announced that 51 re­ servations for family reunions in the park have been scheduled, nine more than at the same time last year. The first one will bring 350 to 400 persons to the park. mew, THOWDAV, JCXE IB, im i CLASSIFIED LmiHUHI******1' i..

Supt Grand Rapids District will probably also be prevented from coming, unless church business calls him this way. The Methodist Conference at Jack­ son was a great success. Very few Methodist Protestants on this side of the state, but we were given a hearty welcome by the greater Methodism. Governor Dickinson in his speech to the Conference lauded the M. P. church for its spirituality and faith­ fulness to Methodist ideals. Conference was not over until Mon­ day morning, but by special arrange­ ment with "The powers that be," I was allowed to come home Saturday morning. I have attended many Con­ ferences, but none better in love and brotherliness than this. . The Methodist Church. J. R. Wooton, Minister. Service will be at the usual hour Sunday morning, ten o'clock. The pastor will bring some reports and impressions of the Conference at Jackson, with a look into the plans for the year to come. We are sug­ gesting as our watchword for the year.

Cook. 72, one of the publishers of the Hastings Banner, was in Butterworth hospital. Grand Rapids, suffering from severe scalp lacerations and a possible fractured skull. He was injured when he fell down a flight of steps at the Morton hotel on Tuesday night of last week. Mr. Cook and Attorney Kim Sigler were returning from a business trip to Greenville and stopped in the hotel for dinner. Coming down stairs, Mr. Cook tripped and fell down the steps, striking on his head. He was ordered by the hotel physician to go to the hospital where it was believed he might have received a skull fracture. An x-ray disproved that theory and the hospital reported that he spent a comfortable night. Dr. F. E. Lowry, Hastings dentist, was elected president of the Barry county Rod and Gun club, succeeding Homer Smith, at the annual meeting of the club held June 5 at Hastings city hall there elected were.

Items ot Interest —Michigan formally accepted the first unit completed in the $11,000,­ 000 state hospital building program Tuesday of last week, although the hospital commission said there was serious doubt that the new building could be placed in service within the next two years. It Is an addition to the main receiving building at the Ionia hospital for criminal insane, with space for 108 patients. The state administrative board accepted the structure, built at a cost of $176,­ 600. —A hog wandered onto US-16 a few miles west of this village Thurs­ day and met with grief, as did driv­ ers of two automobiles. The animal was struck by one car. literally flew through the aid and crashed down up­ on radiator and lamps of another auto. Before the drivers could get out of the respective autos, the pork­ er hurried into a field—and safety. The accident was reported to Grand Rapids authorities by an accident in­ surance salesman, owner'of one of the cars damaged in the crash.—Portland Review. —The Rev. L. M. Rigelman, pastor of the Middleville Methodist church, will leave early in July to conduct his seventh annual two-week tour into the Canadian wilderness. In addition to other adults. 12 boys will be in­ cluded on the trip, five of whom will be from Hastings—John Lockwood, David Cook. Alden Burgess, Robert Cook Jr., and Harmon Wilcox. The party will go by automobiles to a point 90 miles north of Sault Ste. Marie. From Ranger lake the rest of the journey will be made by canoe. Motion pictures will be taken along the trip and particularly in the vicin­ ity of the Abinalong river. —Mrs Wilma Berk, living south of Tekonsha on US-27, was recovering from injuries and shock received in three narrow • escapes from 'death, Saturday, June 3. Mrs. Berk was pumping water at the well in the yard when the pump platform gave way and she saved herself from fall­ ing 43 feet down the well by hanging to the pump handle. She doesn’t re­ member getting to the house but says she is sure she fainted on the way. Still in a daze and alone in the house, she suffered her second shock when lightning flashed in the window and wrecked the radio. An hour later lightning struck the home again, fill­ ing the room with fire. The house did not catch fire. In the accident at the pump, Mrs. Berk suffered severe bruises on her left side, muscular strain and shock. . —Opening of the newly blacktopped road running north from Pewamo to Hubbardston was delayed last week because it had been damaged by an auto driver, and a mixing device was smashed, which prevented laying re­ mainder of the five-mile strip. Peter Winkler, 20, was arrested on charge of having driven through a barricade and travelling three miles through the soft surface. The car finally crashed into the mixer and the wild ride was ended. County highway of­ ficials estimated damage to the road itself at $1,000 and to the mixing equipment at $2,000. Winkler plead­ ed guilty to the charge of crashing through the barricades, and drew.a sentence of 90 days in Ionia jail. The day before the above incident occur­ red another section of the road was marred up by a motorist The sher­ iff and road officers are now starting a campaign to protect the county against further loss in such fashion, and it is likely the sentence Winkler drew will tend to "slow down" those who would travel over uncompleted highways in the future. — Portland Review.

Such is the charge of the Michigan State Farm bureau in a statement signed by Stanley M. Powell, legisla­ tive counsel. The farmers’ represen­ tative points out that outside of Dem­ ocrat Senator* who voted solidly for . the higher amount, the Senate roll call shows that the $38,250,000 appro­ priation was opposed by ten Republi­ can Senators from the following cit­ ies: Detroit, Kalamazoo, Lansing, ' Saginaw, Port Huron. Bay City, Ann Arbor, Flint and Grand Rapids. In addition, Republican Senators from North Adams and Blissfield voted also against authorizing the lower amount. Nine Democrat Senators voted as a block for the $43,000,000 appropria­ tion. following the same. strategy of Republican legislators in the 1937 .session: Approve requests for more spending; the majority party is al­ ways held responsible for any deficit. Opposing Republican Senators jus­ tified their action on several grounds: fl) The House formula for $38,250.­ 000 was unfair to cities; (2) The late Gov. Fitzgerald had pledged $44,000,O00 for 1939-40. 4* What Are "Frills?"

Assuming tne state government cannot afford to grant $43,000,000 aid to schools, what with a staggering de­ ficit already on its hands and state employes facing a prospect of payiess pay-days, Governor Dickinson has countered witn a suggestion that school curriculums should be revised. He referred specifically to supervised playground activity and the teaching of music. To Mr. Dickinson, who taught a two-room school at Potterville 40 years ago, these educational services could be dispensed with under emer­ gency conditions. . To parents of young children, the answer would probably be otherwise. They want the latest of so-called —progressive" education which seeks to develop the child culturally as well as strictly according-to fundamental three "R's." It’s Just a matter of viewpoint as to what constitutes “frills." In New York state the legislature has likewise trimmed state aid to schools. A ‘■save-the-schools" cam­ paign is now under way by Parent­ Teacher associations to prevent tem­ porary closing of public klndergar- over the 1939 appropriations to state Institutions * — - and —• state -departments, * *Dillman has just revealed that the state government’s share of legisla­ tive appropriations represents a $500,­ 000 Increase over what they have been receiving for the present fiscal year closing this June 30.

The governor is known to be dis­ satisfied with the failure of the legis­ lature (and even the churches) to do anything about the all-inclusive "li­ quor problem.” . While Dickinson, an ardent dry.’ would like to have the "roadhouse evil” solved as far as it involves late closing and serving of drinks to mi­ nors, the legislature has shown no in­ clination to legislate further in this direction. • Among members of the state li­ quor commission. Chairman Orrin A. DeMass of Detroit and Commission­ er Verold Gormley are inclined to let licensees alone without additional res­ trictions. Commissioner Muri H. De­ Foe leans towards a solution of liquor and enforcement. DeFoe was a close advisor of the late Gov. Fitzgerald. He enjoys the utmost confidmce of Gov. Dickinson. The outcome of the inside tug-ofwar will be watched eagerly. Poli­ ticians and liquor men alike are easy over what DeFoe may do. He is a potential headline maker. NUMBER 51.

We are always paying the price for the things we lose or gain Out of this life of the mingled gift of ■ gladness and of pain; And whether we pay for pleasure or whether we pay for sin, It is always paying the price for life, no matter where we begin. We say we have had a lot, we’ve en­ joyed and we've shared in the best; We sit sometimes with a little dream of old content in the breast; And then when we look away and think of the things that were nice, It all comes over us, lucky or sad. that we’ve had to pay the price. The magnate pays it for his, and the pauper pays it, too; And the saint pays Just as the sinner does and the unsaved have to do; In all that we have and hold, or in all that we’ve thrown away, It is sure in the end to come to thia that there was a prioe to pay. We pay it for love and peace, for cheer and comfort and song; We pay for sinning and going astray, we pay it for doing wrong; In all that we are or seem, in glad­ ness. or grief and pain. We are always paying the price for the things that we lose or gain. —Folder McKinsey. In these days when contemptuous ridicule seems to be a popular item, it is well to call up the villification publicity campaign carried on against the late Governor Fred W. Green. “Plain Talk,’ the name of a magazine, for at least a few months, published a scathing persona! attack on the then governor. The story was more or less gossip for several days and then forgotten. Fortunately however, the public seems to have a sense of values in analyzing campaigns of this character. Beyond a certain point these attacks provide a certain un­ solicited sympathy and consideration for the victim. The public has its own notions, in certain cases, about the ‘freedom’’ of the press. When the popular late governor came to die, the Detroit Police department dispatched two platoons of uniformed men to serve as an escort for the fun­ eral cortege. Every notable in both parties attended the service, which was carried to assembled hundreds by a public address system. Ionia and Michigan knew the Fred Green they honored in life and death. Remember this story of Governor Green the next time you finish reading one of these blasts. To focus your attention on two more recent exhibits of the ruth­ lessness of the political crucifixion system, poor Frank Fitzgerald and Leon D. Case may be cited. Governor Fitzgerald was a saint after he died •while Leon Case is being led about the streets in his home town of Wat­ ervliet, a physical and mental wreck. Both as personally clean and honest U you are. For one reason or an­ other. character and decency can stand up under a lot of political abuse. —From Editorial, Charlotte Republi­ can Tribune. “Eternal Life “It Is appointed unto Insurance.” men once to die, but after this the judg­ ment” Heb. 9:27. It is estimated that within the space of an hour, in the civilized world there are approximately 4,600 persons who are ushered uot into eternity! The majority of these leave behind some life insurance. But lis­ ten: You and I need more than life insurance, for God says, "After this the judgment" I declare that most of the suicides would not take place if those same persons considered this passage of scripture! In accordance with all reason, there must be a day when jus­ tice is handed out God is not willing that any should perish but that all might come to repentance and re­ ceive eternal life. Hence, we find that the need is for “Eternal Life Insurance." We need xaore* than just ordinary life insur­ ance. How can we be assured of life eternal and be insured against eter­ nal death? As we study the Bible we find that within ourselves tnere dwelleth noth- ign that is good enough to fit us for Heaven, but that God hath laid upon His Son the iniquity of us all. There, in the Cross of Calvary, Christ died for our sins, conquered death, and lives forever more. Now, because He lives, you may live also. How? By Faith believing! The charged inten­ sity of the power of God will beat the devil, temptations, unbelief, and will make burdens easier to bear. Listen to the words of Jesus: Verily, verily, I say unto you. He that heareth my word and believcth on Him that sent me. hath everlast­ ing life, and shall not come into con­ demnation; but is passed from death unto life.’ John 5:24.—Today’s Gos­ pel Truth, by Irving G. Wahlstrom. o Have Several A very successful Stopping Points, public speaker gives much of the credit to this idea: “I have four or five places where I can end my talk gracefully,’ he says. When he notic­ es members of the audience beginning to squirm and fidget he concludes his speech when he gets to the closest ending. Salesmen, too, should have stopping points. Many a sale has been lost by talking too much. When a pros­ pect begins to pick up the papers from his desk, or calls in his secretary-for dictation it is a good sign that you should ftach for your hat. But don’t retreat in confusion. Have four or five ways to end your sales interview gracefully and effectively. The parting words a salesman says, like the last paragraph in a letter, are often the most important No matter how abruptly your talk must end, be prepared to close it with a few well chosen words which will stick in the memory of your prospect. —The Silver Lining. The Builder An old Hindu proverb Wins! says. “Help thy broth­ er’s boat across and lo! thine own has reached the shoje." This is sound psychology. It is noth­ ing more than our old friend—the law of compensation. 'Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap." You can’t escape the law qf cause and effect, therefore, why not have it on your side? This law applies with telling force to business. If more young business folks understood it, there would be more successes and fewer failures. The young man or young woman who renders more ser­ vice and better service than he or she is paid to perform, will fin-? a larger check in the pay envelope sooner or later. Employers are looking for builders. The employee who always helps when the opportunity presents itself will find that his employer will help him. The builder—the man or woman who is positive and constructive— will win. The destroyer—the man who gives as little as he can, wh i begrudges his empoyer a fair day’s work, who is jealous of his fellow employees and tries to retard their progress, will destroy himself just as surely as the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.—The Silver Lining. Governor Dickinson says, and we think rightly, that the edu­ cational system of Michigan must bear Its share of the economies to en­ able the state to balance its budget, that the lavish portion which the leg­ islature cut off for school purposes must be reduced in size, that while everything else is being cut, the edu­ cational system must not expect to be favored. It must be apparent to every think­ ing person, especially to those well enough educated to be employed in the school system, that it is of para­ mount importance that Michigan be placed back upon a solvent basis. To­ day the state is in deseperate finan­ cial plight It was handed a $30,000,­ 000 deficit by the Murphy administra­ tion. That must be paid off. It can­ not continue to spend more than its revenues. That means ultimate dirr disaster. The people of Michigan some years ago, very advisedly, we always have thought voted a limitation upon the amount of taxes that might be placed Plight Of The Schools, upon real estate. That threw a large portion of the financing of the school system upon the state. When the state or the federal government finances anything that anything immediately becomes more and more expensive and demands more and more, money. The people of Michigan also, and perhaps unadvisedly, only last fall voted that none of the many millions which are collected from automobile licenses and gas taxes may be di­ verted from use on an already splen­ did highway system which is'becom­ ing far too costly for our means. There is only a single way, other than by increasing an already too heavy tax burden, to bring the state into solvency and tha tis by curtail­ ment of expenditures. So the school system may be forced to accept the inevitable, forced to suspend many of the courses and activities now given in order that it may aid in bringing the budget into balance. It was extremely unfortunate, as we see it, that for so long a time dur­ ing the worst of the depression the school system refused to accept what every business, individuals and ev­ erything else had to accept. It was a long .time before it could be induc­ ed to cut teachers’ salaries, although everybody else’s salary had been cut. It was a long time before school boards everywhere would look a des­ perate situation in the face and help to ease the burden upon the people and prevent the deficits which were piling up. The educational system must not persist in that attitude now. Michigan must be put into sound fin­ ancial condition. The educational system and every department and commission and board and institution must bear its unhappy part.—Grand Rapids Herald. On Keeping That we are happiest Busy. when we are doihg somehting worth while cannot be denied. There is no doubt that the one who has accomplished a work which has benefited mankindbas attained a satisfaction and happiness far above that Induced by any selfish pursuit This is divinely natural, for, as Christian Science emphasizes, our supreme dut yand privlege is to obey the divine command of Christ Jesus (Matthew 5:16), “Let your light so shine before men. that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” Christian Science gives a new and inspiring view of man's business. It lifts thought above the physical into the Chrlstlanly metaphysical. That is, it reveals God as divine Mind, in­ finite Principle, the source of all true thought and being. In divine Mind, man exists on a conscious, individual, spiritual identity, the image and like­ ness of perfect Life Truth, and Love. Man, therefore, is not material. Mat­ ter. material personality, physical sensation, counterfeit true Life. Through Christ. Truth, we are enabl­ ed to grow in the understanding of the Holy Comforter, or divine Sci­ ence, which reveals the spiritual Uni­ verse and man’s spiritual selfhood. In this revelation of Truth, we have the God-given means of lifting our thought and ideals to the standard established by Christ Jesus. Thus, daily life becomes more ex­ alted, and one's character is pro­ foundly enriched by the exercise of the spiritual qualities of kindness, wisdom, understanding, and holiness. Thought rises to sublime heights, ev­ en while we seem to be walking in the valleys of human experience. Thru spiritual understanding and its ac­ companying exaltation of thought, comes the true sense of business, or busy-ness. There is no evil to tempt the right thinker, who strives to ex­ press more and more of godliness. •Prayer, watching, and working, combined with self-immolation, are God's gracious means for accomplish­ ing whatever has been successfully done for the Christianization and health of mankind," writes Mary Bak­ er Eddy on page 1 of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures." If one seems to be idle, unemployed, or lacking in ambition, here is the an­ swer to the problem. For, as Mrs. Eddy has said, ‘God’s gracious means" for right achievement are "prayer, watching, and working.” Mrs. Eddy's words regarding pray­ er, on page 13 of her Poems, are pregnant with humble desire: "My prayer, some daily good to do To Thine, for Thee; An offering pure of Love, whereto God leadeth me.” How shall we watch ? By constant­ ly examining our thinking to see that it is loving and pure. The study of Christian Science uncovers error, and many a student has been truly amaz­ ed at the false mental pictures mortal mind has been parading before his eyes. We need constantly to turn away from tills dream drama. Thus Christian Science teaches us to be vigilant in our thinking and watching. How shall we work when there ap­ pears to be no work? A wonderful­ ly inspired statement regarding our work appears on page 252 of "The First Church of Christ, Scientist, and Miscellany.” There Mrs. Eddy says, THURSDAY, JUNE 22. 1919 "Keep yourselves busy with divine Love.” Obeying this admonition, wj shall no more be tempted to sit around and wait for something to happen, indulge in moody day-dream­ ing, or observe critically another's daily life. If. for the moment, there seems to be no form of human em­ ployment, there is always the en­ nobling work of praying and watch­ ing—seeking Truth, affirming clearly and joyfully the spiritual facts relat­ ing to the particular problem. Mortal minds suggests that busi­ ness fluctuates; that there are times when perhaps there is too much busi­ ness, and times when there is none at all; that some have pleasant employ­ ment, while others have burdensome work; that chance, evil-mlndedness, human stupidity, and all the etceteras of error make the condition of our ex­ istence. Mortal mind also argues that there is such a thing as a careless ma nor woman, a lazy one, an ignor­ ant, misguided one, or a discouraged one. To human sense this appears to be so. But with divine authority Christian Science denies that God has ever created such conditions or such indivduals. It is vitally necessary that we, too, deny and overcome these errors about ourselves, and, when the occasion arises, about others. This is keeping ourselves “busy with divine Love." We must start right where we are. There is no better time and no better place, than now and here. Keeping busy with Truth and Love is true business. It is the best busi­ ness there is, for it is the "Father’s business." It becomes the essence and substance of our entire experience lifting us u> that divine Life which is the ultimate of all things.—Christian Science Monitor. OAfJttAI Kl LtJlrtt-IJTifiKlM rf-* I I Lansing News Letter | | Kelly Is After "Title-Jumpers" Michigan’s secretary of state Har­ ry F. Kelly, is rapidly organizing his department so as to crack down on the habitual law violators known as “title-jumpers.” Jumping a title oc­ curs when an unscrupulous dealer takes a car in trade and allows the title to be endorsed in blank. On re­ selling the car he fills is the name of the new purchaser so that the trans­ action appears on the title records as .a sale between individuals without recourse to a middleman. When bonafide, sales between individuals not dealers are tax-exempt. This custom followed by many dealers has result­ ed in failure of the state to collect thousands of dollars in sales taxes. The Department of State’s field in­ vestigators will now make a thorough check of all auto dealers' records to see that each dealer holds in his own name the licenses to all cars in his possession. Reputable dealers and most automobile trade associations endorse this impending action on the part of the state. In two months* time under a new law the state collected $1,017,000 sales taxes in connection with issuing 70,884 licenses for trucks and autos, Secretary of State Harry F. Kelly announces. This is' an average collection of a $14.34 sales tax for each license as compared to an average of >6.75 for each license received last year, and an average of $8.50 for each taxable sale last year as estimated by Orville E. Atwood, sales tax director. On the basis of two months’ fig­ ures. sales tax receipts for 12 months under the new system should more —Father Everett Charles Jacobs, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Jacobs, than double the $4,753,966 received ordained as priest at Lansing June 3, last year. celebrated his first Solemn High Mass From the prospective extra rev­ Sunday morning, June 11, at SL Rose enue of $5,000,000 to $6,000,000 must of Lima church.

Ernest Crocker speak to them, after they had helped clean up the camp grounds and the dibner table. Sunday, June 25. the Sunday school of the Episcopal church in Hastings plan to have their picnic dinner at Camp Barry in the screened-in dining room. The ministers of our two counties and their families hold their June 30 meeting at Camp Barry with a picnic supper, preceded by boating, swim­ ming and games, supper being served at 6 p. m. Each family brings their own table service, with some food. Some drinking glasses have been gratefully received since our last mention of needs for Camp Barry. We still need more cots and glasses. Remember the picnic at Camp Bar­ ry July 4th, for all who want to play, eat, and work to get the camp all ready for the 4-H clubs the next day, who begin our camping season. —A warning to cat owners in Ionia county that a rabies outbreak among dogs there is spreading to cats, was issued by Sheriff Leslie M. Murphy. At the same time, he declared twa more young children had been bitten by a rabies infected dog. Murphy was notified by the state laboratory at Lansing that an examinations of the heads of a cat that had belonged to Gene Cottrell, Ronald township, and of a dog that was owned by Glenn Mason, Ionia, had showed both animals had rabies. The heads were sent to the laboratory after the ani­ mals became violent and died the past week.

SIX BULES INSURE HEALTHY CHICKS When chicks come out of the brooder house they enter the most critical period when their treatment deter­ mines whether they will be profitable to the flock operator in the fall and winter laying seasons. Farm work may be pressing, admits J. M. Moore, poultry specialist at M. S. C-, yet he believes attention to six major points will pay dividends this summer. One involves feeding. Chicks should be given credit for high inteligence. With free access to a suit­ able growing mash and scratch grain the growing birds will balance their own diets. As they grow older they will eat more grain and less mash, allowing them to develop before the protein in the feed excites egg pro­ duction. Clean fresh water is pointer two suggested by Moore. A green succu­ lent range matched with mash, grain and water take care of feeding. Four health pointers suggested by For the state as a whole, crop pros­ pects in Michigan were above aver­ age on June 1, according to Verne H. Church, senior agricultural statistlfor the Michigan Co-operative Reporting Service. Warm, dry weather in the southern counties dur­ ing May reduced the condition of small grains, hays anl pastures below the unusually favorable conditions re­ ported a year ago, but prospects for those crops on June 1 was reported somewhat above average. Prospec­ tive production of apples, peaches, pears, and cherries is above average and about double the unusually small crops of apples, peaches and cherries produced last year. The pear crop is expected to be about the same as a year ago. The Michigan winter wheat crop is expected to yield 21 bushels per acre, which is one-half bushel below the final out-turn last year and 1.1 bushel above the 10-year (1928-37) average. On account of the reduction in the acreage seeded last fall total produc­ tion. estimated at 14,889,000 bushels, is 23 per cent below last year and 6 per cent below average. The yield of rye is estimated at 13 bushels pei acre, one-half bushel be­ low a year ago and 1.3 bushels above average. Total production, estimated at 1,521,000 bushels, is 2 per cent be­ low a, year ago and 19 per cent below average. The condition of Michigan oats on June 1 was 80 per cent of normal, or 6 points below a year ago and 2 j LOOK FOB CASH IN STATE’S GBASS Michigan in some years hence may be marketing grass in the form of livestock and dairy products with as great or greater profit than 196.000 farmers now find In production of such cash crops as beans, sugar beets -and potatoes. At least that is the suggestion made recently to livestock farmers by H. C. Rather, head of the farm crops department at M. 8. C. "It’s an eerier type of farming," says Rather. "Cows, beef animals kind sheep can do such harvesting far easier than can a farmer and his fam­ ily out in the fields. "Another advantage is that the state usually has climatic conditions which encourage grass production. Further, such grassy areas are con­ sistent with attempt to keep soil tied down and keep it from losing fertil­ ity." Here come the problems, however. Native grasses, as farmers usually term the Canadian and Kentucky bluegrass fields, are not productive enough as some of the "harder-toget" seedlings of legumes or of leg­ umes mixed with a palatable peren­ nial grass such as smooth brome. In fact, Rather points out, it does little good to improve the native gras­ ses. They merely push out extra growth in early spring when it is ex­ tremely easy to produce pasture and forage. Then when hot weather ar­ rives, the bluegrass rests until rain in the fall He suggests, then, a brocess of filling in this midsummer gap with heat resistng crops such as al­ falfa and brome grass.

A^Mike Mahar’s it ripped off half of the bam roof, twisted the garage all out of shape, knocked in the windows of the house and scattered the small buildings about It blew the bam doors so far away that one is still missing, and ripped the orchard down across the road. It hit Frank King’s bam and twisted it al! out of shape. Mike Mahar's loss is around a thousand and is insured. At Ernest Benedict's the bam was blown all to pieces and looked like pretty near a total loss to the writer and is insured for $1500;. doubtful if it can be put in first class shape for that amount. Other small buildings were total wrecks. These small buildings were insured for less than their value, so Ernie will take a pret­ ty good loss all around. At Eugene Flewelling’s they had a chicken coop that was lifted off the ground and slammed through the comer of the kitchen. Other parts of the house were punctured by fly­ ing timbers, and it is our opinion that tne house is knocked ' so far out of shape it never will be worth a hoot. Gene carried $2000 worth of insur­ ance and contractor thinks it can be repaired for $550; somebody is wrong. Besides this Gene lost a lot of chic­ kens and heaven knows what else. Saw a steel drum in the field, on his north eighty, that evidently had done a lot of sailing as it was 20 rods from where it started from. Most everywhere in the path of the storm, trees were snapped off. ’ On the Harms farm, north of Bene­ dicts, one bam was flattened and the other one is missing the top half. Saw a wad of roofing as big as a load of hay jammed in a wire fence 40 rods away. Falling limbs and busted poles caused the Consumers Power Co. and the Bell Telephone Co. a lot of worry and money. The Vermontville Ex­ change was crippled for a time by a tree cutting off the main cable.

Mr. Steers stated that Eaton county is one of five counties in Michigan with­ out an airport and as we arc in the territory known as the northern line of defense it would be to the ad van tage of us as well as the United States to have some sort of an air­ port. Interest in aviation springs up rapidly if there is some place where flying may be done. In Escanaba, Ionia and other places there was so much interest created by the building of an airport that there were more planes owned than the hangars would accommodate even before the hangars were completely finished. There is a bill in Congress at the present time authorizing federal aid for cities in­ terested in building airports. Tiie Junior Chamber of Commerce feels that this is a worth-while project and is spending much time looking over possible locations. No immediate ac­ tion was taken by the council. The Junior Chamber's Industries commit­ tee is also active to the extent of hav­ ing its chairman, Richard Shaull, talk to the city council about a factory that is interested in leaving a larger city jvhere labor problems have threatened to put them out of busi­ ness and putting their factory in a smaller city that has been free from labor and union trouble.—Charlotte Republican Tribune. —Herb.

They drifted for seven hours before they were picked up by one of the searchlnff-ve^aels to which the alarm had been relayed from shore. Whenever the cry "May Day" sounds on the radiotelephone, oper­ ators who hear it snap to instant attention. "May Day" by marine radiotelephone means "Help, we’re in distress at sea.” It’s the “SOS’’ ot the radiotelephone, the most ur­ gent expression that can be broad­ cast by the human voice. The words are the English phonetic spelling ot the French phrase "m’aidex." which means "help nte." "May Day" From the Exeter Two technical operators, C. E. Nickerson and Marcus Steele, were on duty at the radiotelephone star tlon ot the New England Telephone and Telegraph Company at Green Harbor, Mass., when that urgent call for help sounded from the am­ plifier of the monitoring receiver one recent morning. Each man •topped his work and listened. "May Day. May Day," the voice repeated, "this Is the Exeter, south­ southwest ot Seal Island, on Brown's Bank.” Nickerson recognised the voice ot the captain ot the Boston trawler Exeter. "OK.” he said, "Go ahead.” “We are south-southwest of Seal Island,” the captain repeated. "Don't know whether we can get a boat off or not. Call the coast guard and any ships in the vicinity. Ill try to give you the distance. Walt till I get a chart." The Call Was Never Finished Thet—hours of silence from the Exeter. The Exeter's captain never re­ turned to the telephone on board to report the exact position of his ship. Apparently he had no chance even to report the trouble. That his ship was In urgent need of help was ap­ parent when be said that he was uncertain whether his men would have time to launch a lifeboat. The position he reported was too vague to ba of much assistance in locating him. . Keeping the monitor receiver on «>• Exeter's wavelength to pick up any turner messages that might cop* frbm’ her. Steele jumped to a -telephobg and called the coast guard base at East Boston, reporting In full the message he had received from the Exeter. ♦Meanwhile. Nickerson reached the trawler Hekla at sea by radiotele­ phone and reported the message from the Exeter. The Hekla was fishing some miles from the vague position that the captain of the Exe­ ter had reported. Within a few moments, a radio ap­ peal In code to all ships was broad­ cast from the Hekla. The Hekla’s operator bad hardly completed the message before he picked up the broadcast for help sent out by the coast guard. For nours there was no word from the Exeter. The afternoon newspa­ pers appeared on the streets In Bos­ ton, reporting the call for help and naming the ships that were speed­ ing toward the position given by the distressed vessel. Torn by anxiety, the families and friends of the nine men on board could learn nothing of what had hap pened. Rescued After Seven Hours Night started to fall and the toss­ ing sea, swept by strong spring winds, darkened. Fish-jrmen and sailors searched the ocean In vain. Ashore, at Green Harbor, the radio­ telephone operators remained at their posts. There was no news. Then at 5:20 P.M., just before complete darkness set in, the trawler Illinois, which bad heard the radio appeal for help sent out by the Hekla after receiving the radlotelo phone call from Green Harbor, picked up a lifeboat. In it were the nine members of the Exeter’s crew. They had drifted for seven hours after abandoning the trawler In haste soon after a fire had broken out on board. The Illinois reported the rescue by radio to Rockland. Maine, the report was sent by radio to the ships engaged in the search, and soon aft erward a radiotelephone message from the Hekla to Green Harbor brought word to Boston that ths men were alive and well. The Ftanwa Spread Swiftly Fire had started In the engine room of the Exeter, and the (temes had spread with such speed, that the men were forced to abandon ship within a few minates. Not one of the nine members of the Exeter’s Crew was Injured, al­ though the vessel went to the bot­ tom with al] their personal belong­ ings. To the bottom also went bar radiotelephone equipment, over which had gons the “May Day” call to bring them rescue just as night was closing down on the waters. �THE NASHVILLE NEA3,’ NAVY NEWS AND FACTS.

First in Michigan, is a new organi­ zation in Kalamazoo county in which 20 dairy farmers with nearly SOO cows have formed the "Kalamazoo Asso­ ciation for Artificial Insemination of Dairy Cattle." An outstanding bull with records on five two-year-old daughters which each have produced 600 pounds of fat in a year, is to service all erf the cows through means of artificial breeding. The process eliminated transportation of any of animals. . Farmers in the county sought and obtained assistance from two fen at A. C. Baltzer, extension M. S. C. dairyman, and C. L. Cole, geneticist, in the animal husbandry department, cooperated. Animals in the new cooperative are Guernseys. The operator is to be Ray Struble, Galesburg dairyman and owner of the bull. A half brother of this bull is locat­ ed in VanBuren county. Many dairy­ men from that county have attended some of the Kalamazoo county meet­ ings and expressed need for a similar organization in their county. Jersey and Holstein herd owners also have attended some of the meetings and have evidenced desire for similar co­ operatives. Kalamazoo county agricultural ag­ ent R. Leslie Olds has helped plan the new organization. Sponsors began meeting in February to perfect plans for the association. । Too often we read of the navy ask­ ing for appropriations. The huge sums requested to cover the various activities of this service presents a decidedly unfair picture and forms an illusion in the minds of those who do not closely aanlyze the facts placed before them. Our navy needs nothing Ln itself, for the needs of the navy are the needs of the country and the.se needs arc determined by the economic and stra­ tegic position of our nation. No political militarists, the high command of our navy is composed of men trained to the stem business of the nation’s defense. Given a speci­ fied Job to accomplish under certain existing circumstances, our navy sim­ ply presents the necessary figures to the representatives of the people. So many ships, so many planes, so much money, it is simply a report of what is required what it will cost to do a prescribed job, a job which has been predetermined by national policy.

Michigan’s tourist indus­ try is expected to reap a harvest of 350 millions. Such is the estmate of Business Week. California will be second with 235 millions, Minnesota 205 millions, and Wisconsin 150 millions. Tourist expenditures have soared in to the "Big Businsss" category, but it would be a mistake to assume that Michigan's No. 2 industry is depend­ ent solely upon the summer vacation habits of Middle-West residents. It is becoming more and more a yearround business. Peninsula Playground. Blessed by cooling refreshing winds off Lake Michigan, the lower penin­ sula of Michigan has long been a fa­ vorite haven for sweltering denizons of industrial cities as far as SL Louis, Cincinnati and Louisville. Nature gave also the peninsula the blessing of thousands of spring-fed lakes. What to some might appear to be a curse—sand and sand and more sand—happily made possible many miles of ideal bathing beaches not only along Lake Michigan, Lake Hu­ ron and Lake St. Clair, but on count­ less inland lakes. Add to this combination he recrea­ tional advantages of fish and deer in large numbers, and surround it with the fragrance of pines and spruces and evergreens—all of it within a days drive of millions of Amencans—and you have a good idea why Business Wgek put Michigan at the top of the playground parade for 1939. World Fairs notwithstanding. Knowing Michigan. From your own acquaintances, per­ sons whom you have known most of your life-ttme, how many of them have never seen the Straits of Mack­ inaw? Ask the question tonight, but be prepared for a surprise. Human inertia and a stubborn in­ difference to what appears to be com­ monplace our own state, has made Michigan' the great unknown for many of its residents. Citizens of Dearborn, for example, are disinter­ ested in one of the world's most re­ markable attractions at their own door—the worlds largest industrial plant, all geared to that ever-aston­ ishing American device known as the “assembly line." It is just too close to home. Greenfield Village, also at Dear­ born. attracts more people from oth­ er states during vacation months than Michigan residents. Yet, as a tourist attraction, it is without peer in its appeal and type any place in this nation. free harbor, home port of Lhe U. S. coast guard cutter, Escanaba; and, (5. Diversified industries that normal­ ly employ 3,000 persons Mix with this several beautiful parks and modern municipal build­ ings and community hospital. Then you have another example of why Michigan cities, such as Grand Haven, continually attract new in­ dustrial concerns. The Oval state park, facing the lake, leads all others in annual at­ tendance. It’s a.dull day when less than 100 trailers are parked there. Nearby* is Spring lake, seven miles long, where the famed Hopkins gar­ dens are always open during the summer months to visitors. A speed boat will take you from the big lake over inland waters, right to the es­ tate of Mrs. Claude C. Hopkins, wid­ ow of the late Claude C. Hopkins, who was dean of modern advertising and president of Lord & Thomas. Chica­ go. until his death in 1932. Cherry Capital. As Michigan is the cherry capital of thtf United States, it was inevit­ able'that a festival would be held in age-old celebration of nature’s bless­ ing of a good crop. July 12, 13 and 14 are the dates an­ nounced for the National Cherry Festival at Traverse City. Ships of the Great Lake Training fleet will participate in the program this year. And that distinctive product of Mich­ igan’s tourist business, the Festival Queen, will be properly enthroned amid* parades and whatnot An automobile trip into the Leela­ nau peninsula through buttons Bay, Leland and Northport, with perhaps a side tour encircling lovely Glenn lake will reveal countless cherry trees, reddened with fruit—a sight in it­ self worth seeing. ■ Brockway Mountain Drive. Only a day away from the state capital is the historic Copper country and its Keweenaw* peninsula jetting out like a small finger into the deep blue waters of Lake Superior. The shore is rocky as Maine’s. Pine and spruce trees grow in profusion. At Copper Harbor ,a gem of nature itself, is a modern golf course with a clubhouse and log cabins to cater to your fancy. . The Brockway Mountain drive is breath-taking. From a high point, if the day is clear, you can easily see Isle Royale. Highway people say that at least one million people have enjoyed this mountain drive in the past five years. Grayling In Winter. Undiscovered by all but a few in Michigan is Grayling’s winter sport park. By next winter, and surely within the next five year*, this toboganing and skating spot in the pine woods will receive the tourist recognition that it so fully-merits. The United States government through its park service has been lavishing money on the development of ski trails, tobog­ gan slides, and better facilities for accommodating the thousands who are expected to enjoy all this. A civilian conservation camp is stationed th^re. A comprehensive plan of development has been prepar­ ed. We rode down the slide on "Suicide Sal" at midnight with Harry Kipke of Ann Arbor, Ink White of Gladwin, the genial mayor of Alpena, and one checkered-suited individual by the salty nickname of ’Spike."’ Bright and gay clothes.

Community S. S. Picnic At Thomapple Lake FlrM Held On Friday Mtrartrd 1<3 Sunday School Members. En­ joyable Event. One hundred and forty-five mem­ bers of the Sunday schools of Nash­ ville and Barryville enjoyed the first annual Community Sunday school picnic held at Reid’s Resort, Thom­ apple lake, Friday. June 30. Tables were set in a hollow square with the serving table in the center. Coffee, iced tea and fruit punch were served by the following eats commit­ tee: Mrs. Charles Day, Mrs. Fred Fisher, Mrs. Hale Sackett and Mrs. Clarence Shaw. Will Hyde and Carl Huwe had charge of the tables. It was necessary to place an additional table beyond the square to take care of the crowd. Following the very bountiful din­ ner. games were played and contests held, under the direction of Rev. W. C. BassetL The little folks were thrilled with rides or\ the Shetland ponies at the lake. Swimming, boat­ ing and roller skating took most of the time of the young people. The men and boys enjoyed playing horse­ shoes. The adults of the group had a nice time visiting and watching the younger people at play. The coolness of the day. following an earlier rain, brought the country people who could not make hay, and also added to the pleasantness of-the day. A number of people expressed the desire for another Community picnic next year, all voting it a great suc­ cess. Cecil Everett, 38, Burned By Hot Wire Was Inspecting REA Lines In Mason County For Laird Construction Co., Battle Creek. Seriously burned Friday morning while inspecting a recently built REA line near Fountain, Cecil Everett, 38, of Battle Creek, employee of Laird Construction Co., and son of Mrs. Ervilie Everett of Nashville, is in a painful condition at Pauline Steams hospital at Ludington.

THURSDAY, JULY 5, 1939 Do not grasp at the stars, but do life’s plain common work as it comes, certain that daily duties and daily bread are the sweetest things of life. —Lord Houghton. From the diary of Ralph Waldo Emerson, written in 1813, when Em­ erson was a boy of 10: "Rose from bed five minutes before six. Helped my brother William make the fire. Set the table for family prayers. Awoke my mother. We all gathered for prayer and a family spelling bee. Then breakfast. From 7:15 to 8 lib­ erty to play or read. At 8 to school. Home at 1 for lunch. Back to school at 2. Midafternoon, school out. Home for errands and household chores. Some play. Then supper. After supper, family hymn singing, reciting chapters from the Bible. Taking turns at reading Rollin’s History or some other book. At 8, retired to private devotions and to bed!" "Show me" is the cry. But you know the far­ mer didn’t even believe there was any such animal as the gi­ raffe when they showed him one. Don’t say "show me" unless you’ll admit the truth when you see it, and remember there are some things that are true where the reason cannot be shown. The reason for many truths always travels submarine. Now look at hydrogen, a very Inflammable gas. and oxygen, another gas in which fire has its greatest frolic. Yet put the two together and they become liquid: water, the great fire-fighter. This combination is a fact no matter how unreasonable it may seem. There are other combinations that are facts even if men do not see all the reasons. Jesus by a touch open­ ed the eyes of the blind men in the Temple. Who can reason or fathom the power of His tonch? I have seen men far down in sin touched by Him and every thing in their lives chang­ ed, and today they are new men. These are facts! Thousands upon thousands of men and women will witness, saying, "I trusted Jesus and he broke the power of sin in my life.” They are telling what they KNOW. Faith in Jesus. God’s Son, makes the change possi­ ble. What is there amout this Mir­ acle Christ that is harder to believe than that two gases can become wat­ er? "Show me!" Will you take this Christ? "But as many as received Him, to them gave He the power to become the Sons of God, even to them that believe on His name." John 1.12.— Today’s Gospel Truth, by Irving G. Wahlstrom. “From Missouri!” Just Needs which Business and the banks arc bound, only encouragement instead of further threats, to set us off on the greatest spree of. prosperity we have had since the Golden Twenties. A speaker in Grand Rapids not long ago pointed out that in 125 years we have had 15 major depressions, that of the first 14 we came out of them in a few years by allowing nature to take its course and that as soon as we came out of them we went forward to new peaks of prosperity. But he pointed out that this 15th depression, in which the government has sought to change economic laws and all the other laws of nature, has been the longest drawn out, the most disas­ trous and the most unnecessary *of them all. And the reason was that government restricted Business and Finance, discouraged them both and put in the way of recovery every pos­ sible block that a wild-eyed lot of professors could dream of. No, this new spending spree is en­ tirely uncalled for and will not ac­ complish its purpose. If government will crawl back into its hole and let Business do the things it is ready to do if given a chance, we soon shall find our way out of the wilderness of despair and back into the land which has been so long promised but which up to date has been only a mirage.— Grand Rapids Herald. The Greatest Tragedy Of My Life. I have had many disappointments. Life, to the best of us, is usually a series of ups and downs. The school of hard knocks was to a certain ex­ tent the socrce of my education. I have been a victim of ingratitude that passes all understanding. Why it is that those to whom you have granted the greatest favors become your worst enemies will always re­ main a mystery to me. But what might be termed the greatest tragedy of my life was the disappointment en­ dured as a. result of a demonstration made in the state of Alabama for the purpose of giving the underprivileg­ ed boys of the United States the ad­ vantages justly due .them. A combination was formed with the American Legion of that state. I per­ sonally visited several of the leading cities and addressed the business or­ ganizations in each city . . . the Chamber of Commerce, Kiwanis, Ro­ tarians, etc. An airfield in each of the cities was used for our demon­ stration. We invited the underpriv­ ileged boys to meet at these airfields for a course of training designed to be thoroughly -enjoyable and at the same time a valuable source of phy­ sical development This training course was inaugur­ ated by me personally by giving the boys what I termed a “Wild Indian" calsithenic drill ... a course of exer­ cises that were effective and yet just a lot of fun. Following this drill they were divided into various class­ es—baseball, football, boxing, wrest­ ling, tennis, etc. Each boy was al­ lowed the privilege of selecting the sport he liked best. These exercises were supervised by me personally in five cities. Through the aid of the Federal Superintendent of Relief, this plan was extended to more than thirty communities. Our idea was to include every branch of sport advocated by the Amateur Athletic Union, and to have contests in every city in all these var­ ious sports . . . the winners to be en­ tered in a final championship state contest Several hundred boys joined our classes in some of the large cities, and in a short time wc had eighteen or twenty thousand boys taking ad­ vantage of these opportunities and these were underprivileged boys, please remember . . . the boys who had been feeding the much dLscussed President Roosevelt has stunned the Congress, even his own leaders in both branches, by once more propos­ ing a scheme right out of the hat. Nobody, it appears, had any intima­ tion that he had such thoughts in mind when out of the blue came his request for 53,860,000,000 more mon­ ey to spend and to lend in an effort to stimulate the use of idle money and thus bring about that long defer­ red recovery of which he has talked so much in the lest seven years. The bill is not going to go through the Congress without a bitter fight, it ap­ pears, for not a few of his own party already have come out swinging and are denouncing the plan as just an­ other spendthrift idea which will get us nowhere but add still further to the mounting national debt ajfti the accumulation of new deficits. The trouble with the whole scheme is that no such spending program is at all necessary. For the govern­ ment to dump more and mon- money into the bottomless pit will get us nowhere at all. It will not stimulate the use of the vast accumulation of money which is known to be dammed up in the banks, vaults and in private And we progressed sufficiently in industry. The only thing that is ne- these contests to have a local boxing contest in the various weights in pounded mass of money and the only many i towns and cities, and the win­ ners of this contest competed in Bir­ mingham for the state championship.' There were two nights of these bit­ terly fought contests which clearly alone to work out their salvation as indicated the fervid enthusiasm of our students. a loosening of the restrictions with Just previous to the conclusion of hopes soared I was literally treading on air. Here was a chance to do something for underprivileged boys that could not be valued too highly. I was appointed a member of the National Youth Administration, and I concluded that here would be an ap­ propriate activity for this group; but nt tiie first meeting it was clearly tncheated that there would be no inter­ est in the Alabama demonstration. The efforts of the National Youth Administration seemed to be confincd entirely to a money-spending program chiefly devoted to assisting stu­ dents' financially. The fact that this work started so well in Alabama, and could have been carried on practical­ ly without cost to the government through using WPA workers and re-* cipients of the dole, seemed to have no interest for these officials. Had the plan been extended thruout the United States, nearly a mil­ lion and a half underprivileged boys would have been enjoying the benefits of this physical-training procedure. We talk much about the crime wave, and yet it is everywhere ad­ mitted that athletic training for growing boys is the greatest deter­ rent to crime. A supervising physical director in New York City stated on one occasion that he never heard of a boy active in athletics being arrested for a ma­ jor crime. With such extraordinary results a possibility, coula be blamed for feel­ ing that the government’s failure to take advantage of this opportunity was one of the greatest disappoint­ ments in my life ?—-Bcmarr Macfadder. in Liberty. “God gave the increase." In these woYds, Paul, in his first letter to the Corinthians, gave credit where credit was due, and showed that he had some apprehension of the true nature of the one cause. Christian Science teaches that every good effect is an expression of intel­ ligent divine Principle, which we com­ monly call God. Thus our desres, op­ portunities, and possibilities are sub­ ject to true Increase only as we men­ tally conform to God’s law of har­ mony, holiness, and perfection. For Christian Science to be demonstrated by us we must first let it change the basis of our thinking from matter to Spirit, from evil to good, from error to Truth. Only in this way can we reap the increase—the beneficial re­ sults which naturally follow spiritual enlightenment. Christian Science is neither a means nor a method of increasing mere ma­ terial possessions or enhancing phy­ sical ease, although through its ap­ plication we find abundant resources, peace and rest made manifest In ex­ perience. These things occur natural­ ly when we devote ourselves whole­ heartedly to Truth. zMthough Christion Science enriches our human ex­ perience. even as it makes us better mentally, morally, and spiritually, it is fundamentally a question of obed­ ience to the Master's command, “Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these tilings shall be added unto you" (Matthew 6:33). Obedience to this precept increases our understanding of divine resources, with a resultant manifestation of supply in human ways. We do not and cannot increase our spirituality by any material means or method. As we give heed to the "still small voice" ’of Christ, Truth, which utters inspiring and clarifying mes­ sages in the silent recesses of our thought, we spiritualize and enrich our human consciousness. This il­ luminates our way so that we may, by responding to the truth, exper­ ience the beneficial effects of genuine Christian endeavor. The attainment of a higher Christianity inevitably increases all that is desirable, useful, and permanent. Increase. Mary Baker Eddy says in "Science and Health with Key to the Scrip­ tures" (p. 397). “You cause bodily sufferings and increase them by ad­ mitting their reality and continuance, as directly as you enhance your joys by believing them to be real and con­ tinuous.’’ To false material sense, which admits the authenticity of dis­ ease and discord, suffering seems'in­ evitable; but to spiritual sense, there is nothing but harmony, joy. and prosperity. So when we believe in and admit the presence of inharmony or lack, we are being deceived by mortal mind. Nothing can prevent suffering from such errors of belief except spir­ itual awakening. When we rely on Mind. God, we receive through spirit­ ual intuition true impressions of har­ mony. which increase as we become more spiritually minded. Conse­ quently. if we wish to augment our blessings, we must deny reality to ev­ ery suggestion of imperfection, and admit and recognize the reality and presence of joy, health, harmony, and prosperity, concomitants of eternal Th?

THURSDAY, JULY 13, 1939 * Sight Pages * WHEN A BIG ONE IS HOOKED Michigan Mirror By Gene Alleman The paradox of Luren D. Dickin­ son. prominent layman of the Meth­ odist church and national and state figure in the Anti-Saloon league, be­ ing responsible as governor of Mich­ igan for administration of a vast li­ quor retail business and a horse race gambling setup is one of those color­ ful situations that makes the octoenarian governor "good copy*' for a news-hungry public. Being a practical man of all things Governor Dickinson probably smiles at the moral dilemna in which he finds himself. Perhaps no governor in a half cen­ tury is so fervently and unequivocal­ ly dry as Mr. Dickinson. He is state president and national vice president of the Antl-Saloon league which in prohibition days was a powerful pressure group, along with the Ku Klux Klan, in midwest states. The Baton county figure is high in laymen's circles of the Methodist church. He headed the Michigan del­ egates to the national conference in Kansas City. As lieutenant governor, Dickinson had no direct responsibility in what the state did .or did not do. in the field of selling liquor and running horse races. But fate intervened unexpectedly ,this year. Upon rim was placed the mantle of chief exe­ cutive of the commonwealth of Mich­ igan. Attorney General Read ruled that he was both acting governor and lieutenant governor, and that he would draw the governors salary*. In any event Governor Dickinson today finds himself Indirectly running liquor stores and horse races, and you can imagine his extreme distaste in en­ gaging in either of these activities of old-fashioned ill repute. “Drunken Carousals.** Mr. Dickinson left no room for doubt as to his personal feelings about these two activities last Jan­ uary in his “inaugural”' address this year to the state Senate. He called attention to an estimate that Michigan people pay $120,000,­ 000 annually for liquor that the li­ quor control commission's revenue last year was $8,000,000 and that the price of crime traceable to abuse of liquor could be put reasonably at $90,000,000 annually in Michigan. Then came a blast that would do justice to a Methodist prayer meet­ ing: "Again .we see parents, young men and women and boys and girls, even, from funds that should be used to buy clothing, food, shoes, medicine, rent. toys, furnishings, etc., in drun­ ken sprees and carousals, handing out millions to the bars, beer gar­ dens, road houses and restaurants in the fashion of ancient Greece and Rome to sustain the liquor traffic while state and nation are devising new modes of taxation and borrow­ ing more millions to suppoprt and feed tens of thousonds of these.” Quite a mouthful, that! Like a stentorian voice from the sky is this indiement of gambling, al­ so expressed in the inaugural ad­ dress: •Conceded gambling practices, per­ meating all grades of our society can well be likened to these ancient coun­ tries' indulgences. The vehement outcry from every locality of our people, as well as from other sec­ tions of the country sending millions of tourists Into our commonwealth annually, are uttering vociferous de­ mands that we purge our state of these gambling leeechs, habitues of our Fairs, races, resorts and road­ sides. extracting millnons by every conceivable device from fathers, mothers, boys and girls that should be used to buy shoes, clothing, fuel, food and other necessiies thus turn­ ing over thousands upon thousands to be fed, clothed and warmed by state or federal aid." To all this you need only a loud "amen” to complpete the picture. board responsible to the governoe, which manages the legalized pan­ mutual betting system at the state fairground track in Detroit. Following a visit to the state fair office where Dr. Linwood Snow, Nor­ thville, is doing an efficient job as manager (despite attempts at politi­ cal interference) we visited the nearby race track. Twilight races were being run. 4:30 to 7.30 p. m. Several thousand people (a small box-office) were there, not to witness the races as much as to gamble. Long rows of betting windows. $2 to $100, would require a good two blocks. Loud speakers carried frequent re­ minders of the time available to place bets. After each race the winners present their tickets to the cashiers for the pay-off. Of course it is called a sport for the improvement of the breeding of better (and faster) horses. But we all know that it is gambling, pure and simple, and not so much of. either at that. This gambling business is condoned and supervised by the state under legislative authority. Being legalized by the legislature, betting has be­ come a law which Governor Dickin­ son, by his oath of office, agreed to enforce along with all other laws on the state statute book. Surely here is aparadox. a conflict of moral issues. If here ever was one. Governor Doesn’t Worry. Despite his age of 80 years, Mr. Dickinson enjoys the responsibilities of being governor. He relishes it . In fact, he has gained weight. Worrie which plagued the late Frank Fitzgerald into an early grave ap­ parently do not Inspire a wrinkle on the Dickinson brow. Admitting frankly that he wasn't "losing any sleep” over the then prevalent budget problem, the gover­ nor packed his bags and left in a state police car for the governors’ conference in the East Let the leg­ islature worry about a prospective deficit, he said, if it failed to cut school aid to S38,250,0d0. And worry the law-makers did. while Governor Dickinson enjoyed himself at New York City and Wash­ ington,, D. C. They reduced- - the school aid to $39,000,000 and left a loophole for $2,000,000 more revenue if budget-balancing would permit it It was a triumph for economy, on paper at least. Actually, howeever, the state is still in the hole financial­ ly and anothe- "recession" or a pro­ longed automobile strike would im­ pose another heavy burden on wel­ fare needs enough to quickly exhaust the reduced appropriation which the legislature authorized. The Dickinson administration then would be bogged down in the same morass that befell Frank Murphy. It would be a case again of inducing the Great White Father at Washington to feed the jobless or of dipping more into non-existent state funds. With an election due, and the 1940 ballot­ ing isn’t so far away, politicians would see to it that plenty of spend­ ing was done. As the records prove, welfare rolls have a funny habit of going up just before votes are to be cast Milk Price Fixing. Michigans experiment in the field of price fixing is about to begin. On Saturday, July 17. the state milk board will hear arguments of the Mlchgan Milk Producers association and Detroit milk producers that an emergency exists in the metropolitan milk-shed and that the state should intervene. Anticipated by producers is an in­ crease in the price of bottled milk. ’ The new milk law does not affect the so-called surplus milk which goes Into butter, ice cream, milk powder, canned milk and other manufactured products.

So when April 7 rolls around, a triple birthday celebration is held at the Dailey home, usually with three cakes and three candles on each cake. Kitchen comfort in the hot months is ont only a matter of reducing the number of hot foods and the prolong­ ed use of the oven, but Improving the arangement of th kitchen to cut down the necessary steps and movements may result in cooler and less tired houswives. Studies in timesaving have provid­ ed members of the staff of the home economics department at M. S. C. with some of the secrets of what to do and what not to do to keep cool in the kitchen In summer. A good housekeeper moves In or­ derly sequence from the refrigerator to the work table and sink, to the range, ana to the dining table with­ out crisccrossing of paths. Food is prepared chiefly at the sink and work table. Where is It stored before work is begun? Does the homemak­ er have to cross the room continually to get her materials, or are they kept within.easy reach in the fod-storage cupboard, the refrigerator, and possi­ bly the vegetable bin How near is the refrigerator to the food-prepara­ tion table? Could it be nearer? When the food is ready to cook, how near is the stove? If the various pots and pans have to be filled with water, are they handy to the sink? Are most of the small implements and pans hung up, or does one have to rummage around In drawers or closets to get them out? What distance is walked in setting the table, from the place where the china, glass, and silverware are kept ? Could these things be stored more conveniently ? A dish cupboard with­ in arm's reach of the sink is a great step-saver, especally If it runs thru the partition to the dining-room side. thereby to build better ships that they may meet these requirements. । The master arid fifty per cent of the licensed officers serving on board of such a vessel must be members of the Naval Reserve.

Thousands of cities and other com­ munities would be destroyed. The Alguilllette—There are various theories and traditions as to the or­ igin of this term. The best known is that of the aide-de-camp or hench­ man. of the superior who carried the rope and pegs for tethering the knights horse, and thereby became the ‘-ear mark' of the one near the leader. Another tradition relates that it was the rope of the provost marshal used in hanging the con­ demned. I twas the badge of office of the personal aide.

Last seasons leader on the first week of June was Holland state park which this year has been held out of the first 10 leaders because of exten­ sive alterations and construetion ad­ ditions.

OBTAINED MONEY UNDER FALSE PRETENSES Evelyn Faust, 29. alias Lois Brown of Lansing, was arrested on a charge of obtaining money under false pretenses. She was described by officials as being a professional at that game. She is a stout woman and her game is to dress as a farm wo­ man, go to a bank and ask for a loan on stock she is soon to sell, saying she lives in the vicinity giving a well known family name but fictitious first name. She had recently worked the scheme in Charlotte, Eaton Rapids and Portland, and told officers she secured $155 in three weeks. Jus­ tice Carr fined her $10 and costs of $3.35 and ordered her to make resti­ tution of $35 she obtained in Char­ lotte on May 22 and serve 10 days in the county jail. Failure to make restitution and pay the fine and costs in 10 days will mean an additional 20 days in jail.

Michigan Mirror Michigan owes most of its alluring appeal as an ideal vacation-land to the simple geographical fact that it forms a peninsula. Translated into less pedagogic lan­ guage, Michigan is, verily, the “Lake State." When J. Lee Barrett of Detroit, manager of the Southeastern Mich­ igan Tourist association proposed that Michigan be known officially as the "Lake State" and that automobile license plates carry this advertising slogan, he probably felt that the word "peninsula" was too coldly scientific, being the cause rather than the ef­ fect. whereas the word "lake" con­ jured immediately a happy mental picture of outdoor enjoyment The dictionary defines a peninsula. "A piece of land almost surrounded by water and connected with the mainland by a neck called an isth­ mus.” ' Without getting sidertacked into an embarrassing discussion about what counties constitute the "neck?” con­ sider for a moment the following facts. Most of them we venture to aay, are unknown to the average na­ tive who looks at Michigan with com­ placent indfference just because it has become commonplace to him. Leads In Shore Line. Michigan has more shore line than any other state in the Union. Four of the Great Lakes—Supercr. Michigan Huron and-^Erie—create the two peninsulas. There are 492 miles of frontage on Lake Superior, the largest body of fresh water in the world. Along Lake Michigan «the coast line extends for 855 miles with harbors and inlets adding another 90 miles. Lake Hu­ ron borders the state from Mackinaw City to Port Huron, a distance of 455 miles and there is another 107 miles of shore line from SL Ignace to De­ tour. The Lake Erie shore line totals only 47 miles. In addition to these waters of the Great Lakes, the SL Mary's river, connecting Lake Superior and Lake Huron is 89 miles long; the SL Clair river and Lake SL Clair have a Mich­ igan shore line of 85 miles, and the Detroit river between Lake St. Clair and Lake Erie stretches for 33 miles. 4,187 Named Lakes. And this is just the beginning, as the Showboat'captain would say. Michigan has 4,187 named inland lakes, ranging in size from Houghton lake wiui 18,950 acres and Torch lake with 18,000 acres down to lakes of ten acres or less. Nine lakes are larger than 10,000 acres; ten lakes have areas from 5,000 to 10,000 acres. And then in the wilderness areas of the north are an estimated 1,000 addi­ tional unnamed lakes. The shore line along the Great Lakes, together with the thousands of Inland lakes have made possible an outstanding system of state parka How 'many? Guess again, for the total is 57 exclusive of approximately 2,000,000 acres of state forest lands which have been made available to ’he public for camping. In an average year the state parks axe visited by 9,000,000 people who come from all sections of the United States as weil as Canada and Mexico. Michigan's white fleet at the Straits of Mackinac may be commonplace to you. but it is a source of great inter­ est to tourists. The ferry service between the two, peninsulas is the only one of its kind maintained by a state highway de­ partment. Five state owned and one leased vessel are now operated at the Straits during the summer tour­ ist season. In 1937 the state purchas­ ed a car-ferry of the Ann Arbor railroad and re-named it the "City of Cheboygan." Lest year a Pere Mar­ quette car-ferry was purchased, mod-1 ernized and named the “City of Mu­ nising.” Automobile traffic has grown from 10,000 veehicles in 1933 when the state went into the ferry business to about 275,000 annually at this time. er has stated that the saturation point has been reached in the number Of boats that can be handled effle- i Because the lakes are open to traf­ fic from March until late November port c.ties of Michigan unload sup­ ples for the inland industrial centers and then load shipments of the fin­ ished products throughout most of the year. The total value in 1938 of tonnage in Western Michigan harbors was close to a half billion dollars. Frank­ fort. car-ferry terminal of the Wa­ bash-Ann Arbor railroad, led with $132,882,000. Muskegon, terminal for the Grand Trunk-Pennsylvanla rail­ roads. was next with $112,806,000. South Haven was the only port city to show a gain last year. Much of NUMBER 3. College Octette Presented Concert The Alumni class of the Evangeli­ cal church served a Swiss steak ban­ quet in honor of the North Central college Octette last Thursday even­ ing. Rev. W. C. Bassett led the young people in group singing. A brass quartet (cornets) consisting of Estella Wise, Elner Jane Purchis, Frances Dahlhouser and Jean Hec­ ker, played two beautiful numbers. A birthday cake with greetings and five candles on it was presented to Rev. Bassett, who responded with appropriate thanks for such an elab­ orate celebration on his birthday. The evening concert of sacred-sec­ ular music was appreciated by the au­ dience of 150. Four of the eight boys are planning on attending the Evan­ gelical Theological Seminary and en­ tering the Christian ministry. Don Waller, who will attend the Seminary this fall, told of the advantages in a Christian college where Youth can build themselves intellectually and spiritually. Following the concert the congre­ gation was invited to meet in the basement where moving pictures were shown of the college campus, buildings, and activities. Rev. Bas­ sett kindly shared his birthday cake after the pictures were shown. Much credit is to be given Mrs. Phyllis Garlinger, Mrs. Hubert Long.

Gallmeier, to vin­ dicate the ancient alchemists who were often executed for their bold beliefs. The alchemical research will begin in the new Rosicrucian AMORC laboratories early in September this year, it is said, after a thorough an­ alysis of the translated writings of the ancient Greek and Arabian al­ chemists is completed this summer. The mystical phraseology used by the alchemist is one of the greatest dif­ ficulties the researchers will encoun­ ter. -As an example, states S. H. Gallmeier, the "Phyloaopbers Stone” Is often referred to in old manu­ scripts as a substance—" 'twas not of wood, nor of any manner of metal, nor was it in any wise of stone, nor of horn, nor of bone."

The Place Of The 91st Psalm has Protection. always been a source of comfort to men, containing as it does many declara­ tions of God's care and protection. Typical of the whole Psalm are the words (9-11): “Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the moat High, thy habitation; there shall no evil befall thee neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. For he shall give his an­ gels charge over thee, to keep thee in all* thy ways." Just what this protective place is, where it is located, and how it may be attained ,are questions which come to many on reading these inspired words. Yet one thing seems obvious, namely, that since this protection has been enjoyed by men of many nation­ alities, in varying situations and thru many ages, it cannot be a locality but must be a condition of thought. When God is understood to be “in­ corporeal, divine, supreme, infinite Mind, Spirit, Soul Principle Life, Truth. Love,” as Mary Baker Eddy defines Him in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures” (p. 465), it is discerned that God. ever-present Mind, is expressed by ideas. To ap­ prehend this fact is to sec the insep­ arability of God and man. His idea, and to find heaven in the realization that what God is, man also is by re­ flection, since he is the unchangeable expression of God. When Christ Jesus, the Waj-show­ er, declared his oneness with the Father; when he asked that his fol­ lowers might be one .even as God and he were one; when he spoke of his existence as being before Abraham, he was declaring the truth, since dis­ covered by Mrs. Eddy (ibid., p. 410) that "Principle and Its idea is one.” No aspect of Christian Science is more fundamental than this. In his study of this Science the student becomes impressed by the fre­ quency with which the name of God is linked with Hia idea man. and how the truth regarding man’s unity with God .as image, likeness, son, expres­ sion, or manifestation, is stressed. This, then, is “the secret place" in which, if a man dwell, he shall be un­ der Goda protecting' care, enjoying the freedom depicted by the Psalm­ ist The need of today is that men should become alert to the attain­ ment of spiritual understanding. Ear­ ly training .material thinking, forget­ fulness, with other subtle enemies, lead to indifference to spirituality. How many even while acknowledging God to be’the only power yet culti­ vate worldly astuteness, that they may cope with what they consider their problems as business people, parents, or others! In the interna­ tional situation .also, when threatenings of war seem insistent, to dwell in the consclousneess of man's unity with God is to find the place of pro­ tection. The Way-shower's exhortation to al Ito be perfect, even as God is per­ fect, has always been much pondered by his followers. Such an ideal seems so far above humanity’s realm that one has at times paused and perhaps retired discouraged before it. Yet, Truth reveals not only a perfect God, but enables us to discern that the idea must of necessity partake of the nature of its divine Principle: and this in face of the evidence of the ma­ terial senses, which would hqve u8 believe that we are unprotected, 111, poor; or that we live in matter, and are therefor liable to condemnation and punishment. When Paul declared (Romans 8:1), “There is therefore now no condcmnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit,’ he touched upon in God. And today many bear wit­ cause they to some degree understand man as the reflection of God, rnd seek to lay off the materiality which hinders the continuous enjoyment of THUBJWAY. XTLV M, 1M» | Lansing News Letter' | Gas Tax Collections Reach All-Time High. Harry F. Kelly Secretary of State, reports a gain of 5895,314 in the gas tax collections the first six months of 1939 over the same period of 1938. This is an ail time high for the Gaso­ line Tax Division. The total amount collected from January 1 to June 30, 1939, aggregates 513,928,037, topping the previous high record for a sbt month period in 1937 of >13,736,999 by >191,038 . For the first six months in 1938 the total gas collections were >13,032,778, ao the gain for; 1939 is more marked. Right understanding of man's true relationship to God destroys the maerial belieef which finds expression in discordant conditions. Reflecting the perfection of our Father, we express happiness, safety, and confidence. The change from a material to a spiritual basis of thought, as taught in Chris­ tian Science, provides protection against the persistent claims of er­ ror. The understanding of man’s sonship with God is applicable to every phase of human activity. God’s idea does not, for example suffer from un­ happiness, accident .depraved tastes, or grief. These, having no place in divine Mind, God are no part of the real man. This practical, reformative, and protective truth is summed up by Mrs. Eddy on page 518 of Science and Health, in one brief sentence: “The divine Principle ,or Spirit, compre­ hends and expresses all, and all must therefore be as perfect as the divine Principle is perfect."—Christian Sci­ ence Monitor.

America's most famous song lead­ er, George Campbell of Cincinnati will be on hand every afternoon and ev­ ery evening to direct the “singing grandstand." Campbell Is a nationally known and liked song leader. His humor and wit coupled with a natural mu­ sical voice has won him the top notch in the field of music and recreation. The most varied audience that Campbell ever lead through rhymes of song was an international conference group numbering 5.000 and repre­ senting 57 different nationalltiees. The song books for this conference were printed in three different lan­ guages. As former chairman of the Music Committee for Kiwanis International and director of music for George Williams college he has had exper­ ience throughout the nation. Monday, Jimmy Lynch and his tro|ipe of Death Dodgers will thrill the grandstand patrons with daring and death defying exhibitions behind the wheels of modern stock cars. Lynch will be taking a day off from his summer engagement at the New York Worlds Fair where he is ap­ pearing in a coliseum sponsored by a national tire manufacturer. Beginning Tuesday afternoon of the Fair and lasting through Friday, will be the harness racing. This year two new events each with a purse of $1,000 are drawing faster horses to the Fair than ever before . Saturday afternoon the Fair will close with some of America’s leading dirt track racers competing for the prize money on the half-mile oval track. This year the acts will include The Twelve Aristocrats. Garo Neilson Dancers. Americana Singers. Ben Beri, the Seven Otaris. Myrtlll and Pecaud, The Four Whitsons, LoyalRepinskl Troupe. The Brannocks, Smith Rogers and Eddy and Carolyn Erickson. Lester Cole will be the master of ceremonies and music for the show will be furnished by Cervone's Bsnd. | Y. M. C.

The Treasury closed its books June 30. showing we spent 9 1-4 billion dollars nearly a half billion more than in 1336, when we paid 1 1-2 billion dollars in Veterans bonuses. After going in the red for six con­ secutive years, adding 20 billons dol­ lars to the national debt, this adminisration has added almost 3-4 of a billion dollars more to the “regular" government expenses than was paid in 1938. Do you realize that, after more than five years of the application of his “recovery’-' remedies, Roosevelt tn 1939 spent nearly a billion dollars more for recovery and relief than he did tn 1938?. Are we being driven nto bankruptcy, business and indus­ try destroyed, so that the Commun­ ists can demand a dictator to bring us out of our trouble? During the last five years, the an­ nual taxes you paid averaged 4.9 bil­ lion dollars, while durng the last five yearn of the '20s the taxes were but 4.1 billion dollars. And yet. with this increased tax money, we have gone ever deeeper into debt, the average deficit being more than 2 1-2 billion dollars per year; that is, during ev­ ery hour of this administration— which was to bring us lower costs, increased efficiency and a balanced budget—Roosevelt has spent >1.55 far every >1 collected, and he has col­ lected more dollars than during the five year period ending in 1929.

As contrasted with a near drouth and excessive heat in the Far West and some parts of the West and Northwest. Michigan has been blessed with ample moisture and a tempera­ ture slightly above average. The re­ sult of this favorable growing weath­ er has been that the condition of fruit and field crops, with the possible ex­ ception of spring wheat, is now above average. The composite condiiton of 16 lead­ ing field and fruit crops is 81.9 per cent of normal, compared with 77.7 per cent a year ago and a 10-year average of 73.5 per cent, it is an­ nounced by Verne H. Church, Mich­ igan's senior agricultural statistician for the federal and state departments of agriculture. While Michigan is 26th in acreage of farm lands, it ranked recently first in cherries, second fit potatoes and field beans, third in grapes fourth in pears and peaches, fifth in apples,, al­ falfa, hay and buckwheat, sixth in sugar beets and tame hay. seventh in flaxseed, clover and timothy hay, eighth in rye, ninth in winter wheat and oats, and tenth in corn, and bar­ ley. Yes, things are looking up for fall! present relief worries, Michigan’s re­ tail business is better than it was a year ago. Reailers in Detroit, which is the automobile center that sets the pace for all the state, report a gain in sales of 15 to 18 per cent over a year ago. Wholesalers have the smallest carryover of consumer goods in years. Furthermore .the tourist businesssecond only to automobiles in econ­ omic importance—has buoyed the state's retail sales away above the national average. The traditional “summer slump" just doesn’t exist in many parts of the state. A count of oiitstate automobiles by the state highway department also indicates that the 1939 season, contrary to World Fairs, will be about average and possibly better than normal. The capricious weatherman will have * much to do with the final tally. NASHVILLE. MICHIGAN. THURSDAY, JULY 27, 1939 Mrs. F. C. Lentz, 64, Passed On Thursday NUMBER 4.

Now, it is a well known fact and a sound, theory that employees do not work for fun. And it is just as sound a theory that investors do not put their money into industrial con­ cerns just for the fun of it either. And that just about completes the circle. People will not invest money in a corporation whose enormous tax bill prevents the payment of divi­ dends and without such investments, industry Is certainly not able to ex­ pand and provide more jobs for the unemployed. — Motor Wheel News, Lansing.

Why should the young man or woman save, $7.50 per month for insurance, the Christ­ mas Fund or otherwise? “Such non­ sense!" New Dealer economists say. To save, prevents the purchase of goods .

Every "straight thinker” knows that the four billions spent annually by the government in budding bridges, roads city halls, schools, etc., is only a drop in the bucket compared to what must be spent for captal goods if this country is prosperous. Thinkers know other billions must also be spent If government is to issue debt money (about which few seem to be concerned) with which to finance the activites required, you may rest as­ sured government will be forced to enter fields heretofore occupied by private industry. In that event gov­ ernment will surely ultimately "own and control” the productive plants of this country.

His personality enters the Bible in Gene­ sis and runs right on down through the book, and toward the close of Revelation He is still the same great theme: “Even so, come Lord Jesus.” Rev. 22:20. Whom did John mean when he said. “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the word was God. All things were made by Him and without Him was not anything maae that was made. And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us.” John 1:1, 2, 3. 14. Who was conceived of the Holy Ghost and born of the Virgin Mary? Jesus only, who lived a sinless life. Who ttasted death for every mortal and entered into a vicarious atone­ ment great enough to include the last sinner that walks the earth? Jesus only. Who conquered Hades and came forth in the glory of the Re­ surrection? Whose body transcended the lav. of gravitation and was re­ ceived up and out of sight on the clouds of glory? Who is coming ag»in „ King ot King, and Lord ot Lords? Jeusu only! I am inviting your attention to the great historic doctrines upon which Christianity is built This is the Sure Foundation—the foundation that will never be blasted away! Here is a foundation on which to build your life. The foundation holds even when the death billows roar, through the storm and into eternal’happiness. I was thrilled last summer, as I read this inscription on a monument erect­ ed to the memory of Judge John A. sincere Christian. Doing in all things the will of his Master, and resting his hope of eternal happiness alone on the righteousness of Jesus Christ." You, too. can rest all that you arc and all that you hope to be on the righteousness of Jesus Christ. Sim­ ply receive and trust Him. «u your life.—Todays Gospel Truth by’Irving G. Wahlstrom. Holy Writ contains account of those coura­ geous souls who. though apparently enveloped in the darkness of human woe, have clung to their faith in good until the shadows dis­ appeared. In the Acts of the Apos­ tles (16-25) we read, "At midnight Paul and Slias prayed, and sang praises unto God,” and .at what might be called the darkest hour, their de­ liverance was effected. On another occasion, Peter was released from prison by an angel, while prayer was made without ceasing . . . unto God for him." (Acta 12*). Standing at the tomb of Lazarus, Christ Jesus gratefully looked beyond the night of death to the ever-preaencc of death­ less Life . And Lazarus came forth from the tomb. The Psalmist sang (42:8), "The Lord will command his lovingkindness in the daytime, and in the night his song shall be with me.” Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, proved tliis‘great truth when she found her­ self standing within the shadow of death. Her humble faith in God’s beneficlence lifted her thought above the mist of materialistic belief, and she beheld the presence and power of eternal Life. This divine revelation she gave to a world lost in the night of materialism, in the Christian Sci­ ence textbook. “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures.” Thus, on page 511 she writes: “In divine Science, which is the seal of Deit and has the impress of heaven. God is revealed as infinite light. In the eternal Mind, no night is there." Christian Science reveals the scien­ tific basis of thankful praise. It teaches its students how to rejoice in the midst of affliction, by disclosing evil’s unreality. The Revelator wrote (Revelation 22.1) "And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.’ Mrs. Eddy defines “river" (Science and Health, p. 593) as "channel of thought When smooth and unob­ structed. it typifies the course of Truth; but muddy, foaming, and dash­ ing, it is a type of error.’ Christian Science presents to weary humanity the revelation of God, as the one in­ finite, intelligent, and beneficial cause, and the real man as His in­ telligent and beatific effect All that God has, the real man en­ joys by virtue of reflection. In other words, man possesses nothing unde­ rived from Deity. Jesus propounded the question (Matthew 7.16), “Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?" Since man, the effect, is the likeness of God. the cause, man does not possess any tendency toward evil, manifested as sin, sickness, or death. To human sense this may sound transcendental, and the skeptic may ask, If such be true, how then are the crime, want, and woe that are in the world to be accounted for? Isaiah of old gave the answer to this query (Isaiah 2:22): “Cease ye from man. whose breath is in his nostrils; for wherein is he to be accounted for?" Who has ever sought the origin of discord in music, or of a miscalcula­ tion in mathematics? Such things are dismissed as erroneous, illusory, and therefore unreal. Where, then, is the logic of starting with sick and sinful mortal man in order to find the image ana likeness ot God, the great First Cause, who is infinite divine Intelligence, Life? Christian Sicence begins with intel­ ligent and beneficent Deity, and. rea­ soning therefrom arrives at perfect man, to whom belongs fetterless be­ ing. This truth, gratefully under­ stood and acknowledged, is a peren­ nial spring of joy amid human vicis­ situdes. As the student sings songs ot praise and thanksgiving, the night of mortal belief wanes, and he awak­ ens to know one God, one Mind, one Life; to know one perfect man. the intelligent and truthful expression of that Life which nothing can destroy. Enlightened spiritual consciousness is the ‘river of water of life, clear es crystal, proccedng” from diivne Mind, and manifesting itself in human ex­ perience as harmony and joy. Its suppositional opposite is a dream of material existence, in which appear the phantasmagoria of ignorance and fear, manifested ns misery, sickness, and death. The only cure for ignor­ ance is enlightenment When en­ lightened thinking takes the place of fearsome believing, it brings forth its own enlightened results in human ex­ Songs In The Night, | Y. M.

Direct telephone contact between the United States and Australia has been established recently over a short wave radiotelephone circuit between San Francisco and Sydney, Australia.

Telephone service between thia country and Australia has hitherto been set up over two radio circuits interconnected st London. The new route shortens the distance by more , than 4,000 miles and provides a much better quality circuit On ac­ count of the shorter distance over the direct route, the rate is ma­ terially less than when calls were handled via London. Circuit Now to Newfoundland A radiotelephone circuit has also been recently established between Montreal, Canada, and St John'a, Newfoundland, providing for the first time a voice link between the latter island and the North Ameri­ can mainland. The new channel em­ ploys short wave, and la nearly 1000 miles long. Through Montreal, it links all Bell and Bell-connecting telephones with the principal cities of Newfoundland.

The field administration of the de­ partment of conservation has releas­ ed the report of June i»w violations, showing that one-third fewer arrests were made that mentis than in May. Officials said this decrease was characteristic of the summer sea­ son. when the months of July and August reach the low point of infrac­ tions. What appeared to make this a record year was the fact that June arrests were 25 per cent lower than for Jane of last year. Persons taking qr attempting to take fish outside of the open season, or who were fishing without a license were major causes of June arrests. Officials said that late summer will see a decline in these charges. It was apparent thaj/tnany persons had learned their Idsson on some counts. Fishing in Inland waters without a license got 65 into trouble during June. Last year there were 122 arrested for neglecting to pay for fishing privileges. Anglers who had In their posses­ sion any bluegills, sunfish or bass be­ fore the opening day on June 25 led all violations, with 80 taken on this charge. Attempting to take fish on Inland waters prior to the lake sea­ son was charged against 49. There were 183 taken on these two counts last year. A barometer of the popularity of seasons is the small part taken in to­ tal violations by arrests other Qian those concerned with fishing. Of the 353 arrests in June only five per cent were not of fishing origin. For the infractions of state laws the courts assessed fines totaling $1.­ 633 and costs of >2,151. Rather than pay other fines violators spent 553 days in jaiL Testifying to the efficiency of the law enforcement agency guarding fish and game was the fact that no court casc.3 were lost during June, ix cases were adjourned until later, three went to circuit court and eight people were given paroles or proba­ tion. lation this fall through & new process Excep for small quantities grown during the World war when conditions on the sea made it almost Impossible the Thumb area have imported seed supblies. Chlckory is grown for the roo, which is washed, cubed, dried, rousted and ground. The final pro­ duct is used for blending with coffee to give the beverage body, darken its color and to hold flavor and aroma. Because chlckory is a biennial, re­ quiring two years to make a seed crop, farmers have found it difficult to get seed. During the war their attempts . were confined to laying away the plant during winter, setting it out again in spring for a seed crop. The seed usually costs about thirty cents a pound. • The man with the naw idea is H. C. Rather, head tit the farm crops de­ partment at M. S. C. When barley was seeded in college test plots early in 1938, chlckory was drilled in at the same time. The bar­ ley was harvested and the young chlckory plants given a thorough cul­ tivate to stimulate growth in 1938. Through the winter the plants stood in the field, geting an early start this spring. Now they are an average of six feet high, almost covered with maturing seed or flowers. Due to its extended flowsring per­ iod, Professor Rather expects shat­ tering during harvest. But he has succeeded in simplifying growth of the seed stock. He hopes that the plants can be tied with a binder and cured before threshing. It takes about two pounds of seed for an acre. Michigan usually grows around 8,000 acres and has root drying plants at Mt Pleasant Pinconning. Bay City, Bad Axe. Midland. Kawkawlin and SMITHS LOSE OUT Di PHONE DIRECTORIES No Laager Oatraak Other Naan b Small Baaki—Bold TWr Are the Smiths turning cRy dwel­ lers? It would seem so, judging by a study recently made of the telephone directories in some ot the smaller cities and towns served by the Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Company The famous clan ot Smith is not holding its own with the greatest number of directory listings, in many ot these smaller places. In the Winchester, Vs., telephone directory, for example, the Millers outnumber tho Smiths, and in Cum­ berland. Md.. the Millers again out­ rank the Smiths, though this time by only one listing. In Roanoke, Va., the Smiths are hard put to it to keep’ their rating, winning by only two. over the Martins and the Browns. In Lynchburg, -the Smiths are out­ ranked by the Browns, the Johnsons and the Davises, and in Culpeper they have half as many listings as the Browns. In the smallest directory of the territory, where there Is a single card with 40 listings, there is but one Smith, and in the second small­ est directory, of 99 lines, there are four Browns and one Smith. In the larger cities, however, the Smiths still reign supreme. It is only In the smaller cities that they fail to lead«ln the listings. The Chesapeake and Potbmac di­ rectories are liberally sprinkled with the namesakes of famous men, such as Robert E. Lee, Jefferson Davis, Thomas Jefferson, George Washing­ ton and Woodrow Wilson. ••We will appreciate the prompt payment of your subscription. Six times as many forest fires were reported for the week ending July 16 as were sighted the previous week, but the fire fighting organization of the department of conservation was not much extended to put out the blazes. Actually the fires averaged two and one-half acres each. Unusual was the fact that 108 outbreaks were crowded into a seven-day period, but only 266 acres were blackened. Thus ran the total acreage burned this year to 43,780—of which about 25,000 was accounted for in the Pres­ que Isle state forest burn which spread through three counties last May. Of the 693 fires reported to date, the average size is 63 acres. Heav­ iest number of outbreaks last week came in counties at the northern tip of the lower peinsula, and those in the layer just above and below the Muskegon-Bay City line.

More Money For Horsemen Spotting a Forest Fire Michigan Mirror By Gene Alleman . The "home rule" policy of the late Gov. Frank Fitzgerald, which the legislature followed in enactment of the new welfare act. is now com'ng home to roost. Counties “must take up the alack" in cost of relief, it is announced by Walter F. Gries, chairman of the state social welfare commission. With the state "broke " (at least $30,000 000 in the red) and with a re­ duced state appropriation available for the present fiscal year, the state commission allocated $650,350 to counties for August relief. Counties had requested a total- of $1,207,672. Wayne county alone wanted $489,000. Under terms of the new act. coun­ ties are given final authority over re­ lief expenditures. When state funds are exhausted, responsibility for maintenance of welfare—according to the new act—falls back on home gov­ ernments. Are all counties doing as much as they can for relief of unem­ ployed? The commissioners think not. Jackson county, for instance, expended $440,000 for a new court house in 1938 when it contributed only $39,000 for relief while the state was giving it $553,000. Officials of some counties, howev­ er, think otherwise. Quoting G.

Binions upon billions of idle money are lying in tgmks or invested in frozen securities, and all through the six long years of the present admin­ istration there has been no really in­ telligent effort to alleviate this ser­ ious situation. The attack on business was the beginning of a series of legal enact­ ments which drove the investor to cover. Why should he risk his money if he did not believe there was a good chance to secure a reasonable profit? The entire investment world was encompassed with a dark cloud of fear. Not only the ordinary sources of taxation were boosted to the limit, but what we term punitive taxes were placed on our statute books . . . more and more discouragement was pass­ ed out to the world of business and industry. There was apparently no sympathetic understanding of the re­ quirements necessary to increase em­ ployment and to the ordinary intelli­ gent citizen it seemed as though ev­ ery possible means was adopted to discourage business men in all fields of endeavor . The fact that the liberal promotion of business and increased investment would enormously add to employment was not given the slightest consider­ ation. We have had billions of dollars spent In what is termed pump-primtag. Suppose the pump-priming money that was spent in w'ild experimenta­ tion had been used each year to lower taxation. The millions of dollars spent in reducing taxation would have given a stimulus to business that might have brought money in Increas­ ed taxes far in excess of the amount used to lower taxes. And, furthermore, it would have convinced business leaders that the government was in favor of giving a fair deal to employers as well as em­ ployees . . . that there was no inten­ tion on the part of officials to set one group apart and favor it against oth­ er groups. All the Investors of this country need is tb be assured there will be a continuance of the Amer­ ican system . . . they can then be free of the possible danger of having what­ ever they might earn through invest­ ment confiscated through high taxes. One or a number of addresses by the President or his official assist­ ants will not eliminate the fear that has given us a stagnant pool of idle money. Something more substantia! and dependable is required to loosen this colossal financial accumulation ... to clear away the barriers that have dammed up these huge resources. When that is done there will be a business boom in this country great­ er than history has ever recorded. Investors everywhere are holding up their plans, waiting for an aasurance of that nature. An investor does not like to hoard his money. He wants to place it where a reasonable profit can be assured.

It might not seem such an important loss now. but the time must inevilably come when Britain’s de­ termination to stand up for her rights may be an all-important factor, and when it does the seriousness of the lack of integrity shown now and in recent months will be driven home. There might be an excuse for the peace of Munich. It might be argued that out of consideration tor the na­ tion which was not ready for war, Chamberlain chose to sacrifice the pledged word of his country and the existence of a foreign land. It might be said Chamberlain hopes some day to be in a strong enough position to restore what he assisted In destroying. . But in the * Orient this line of thought does not stand up. British power should certainly be enough to back demands by the government that things of this sort cease and that they never be repeated.

The average driv­ er rarely sees them, for they’re out early in the morning and late at night on the main highways. During heavy traffic hours they spray sideroad trees. Before any tree is sprayed, the owner of the adjoining property is consulted. Owners of nut and apple trees along the right of way have their trees protected free of charge. That is because Insects might other­ wise breed there and then infest near­ by orchards. The department reports show this year that its sprayers are winning their fight. Fewer infestations were reported, and most of those of a mi­ nor nature. The department uses lead arsenate as a standard spray, varying It with conditions.

The key to reduction of traffic fa­ talities In Michigan may be found in the successful July 4 safety program executed by the state highway de­ partment and state police. In 1937 a record of 38 traffi deaths for the four-day holiday per­ iod was established. State Highway Commissioner Van Wagoner and Com­ missioner Oscar G. Olander of the state police pooled the efforts of their men to cut that figure in 1938 for the first time. That year they cut fatalities to 31. They set cooperation between drivers as the goal to be accomplished, and kept a careful record of all elements contributing to each fatal accident On their findings, they based their 1939 safety campaign. The result was Mr. and Mrs. Carlton Fraze and Mr. and Mrs. Will Henshaw of Indiana spent one night last week with the former s mother. Mra. George Green, and Mr. Green.

Making Friends In going through In Business. .. some old files at ‘ ..home this evening I came across ten very wise points on making friends in business. These ten suggestions appeared in System for December, 1930, and are called 'The Decalogue of Cooperativeness.'’ 1. Be open-minded toward sugges­ tions. 2. Medc^ing is the sand-ln-thebearings that causes friction. 3. Interest in the problems of oth­ ers insures their interest in yours. 4. When layoffs loom, the grouch has few defenders. 5. Knowing when to stop arguing argues a tactful disposition. 6. To see the thing as others see it means good business eyesight. 7. Pettiness is the vice of little minds—they stress their picayune im­ portance. 8. Sincerity is the soundest curren­ cy of all business practice. The “Yes” man is a drug on the market 9. Give credit when due. It will establish your own credit 10. Play absolutely square. You will enjoy the game more—and earn the respect of the other players.— The Silver Lining. The Best Place Compared with any To Live other country on the face of the globe the United States is the best place to live. For instance, in the matter of auto­ mobiles, France shows one car to 23 persons. England shows one to 25. Germany one to 55, Italy one to 109, and the United States one to every five persons We in this country own 60 per cent of the telephones in the world. We own 44 per cent of the radios. We have twice as many homes per thousand of population as compared to the most cultured countries in the world. The amount of insurance we have in force in our country is double that of the rest of the world. With only 6 per cent of the world's area and only 7 per cent of its popu­ lation we consume 48 per cent of the world’s coffee, 53 per cent of its tin. 56 per cent of its rubber, 21 per cent of its sugar. 72 per cent of its silk, 3G per cent of its coal, 42 per cent of its pig iron, 47 per cent of its copper and 70 per cent of its petroleum. These facta and figures argue more strongly for the American system than the eloquence of the most silvertongued Fourth of July orator!—The Silver Lining. "Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home.” This has been the comforting cry of mil­ lions of human hearts since the sweet singer wrote his beautiful line.. The poverty and utter lack of conven­ iences are helpless to destroy the fact that it is somebody's home. Coming through eastern Tennessee one day, I saw mountain shacks that were stuck way back in the woods. They looked like a good wind would take them for a ride. Peeking in on these folks, I found that there was very little tn the way of furnishings, mainly beds and cooking utensils. Much of the work was done Ln the yard. Some cabins did not even con­ tain a door that could be closed. And still this was home to these folks. Home. and, as likely as not, they would not want to change places with you and me. It is in the home that a baby is soothed to sleep by the mother's lul­ laby . It is where life's loves, joys, and sorrows are first learned. Now, there is no thought mofe comforting to the human heart than the Bible’s bright picture of the home of the soul—hills fairer than any our childhood ever knew*, a river of life gushing beautiful and, eternal from the throne of God, fellowship that will never be marred by absence, and lov­ ing hearts that will never be sadden­ ed by a single farewell Eternal in heavens fairer than the sunrise, as eternal as the throne of God itself, will be our new home—if we have received Jesus Christ as our Saviour, for it was He who said: T go away to prepare a place for you." In that home on high, they shall never dig a grave, hearts will never ache and sin will never scar. “In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you."—John 14:2.—Today’s Gospel Truth, by Irving G. Wahlstrom. * Confidence. Henry Ford at 76 years of age brims with con­ fidence in the future of the nation and the nation’s business. He be­ lieves in the United States and its people and their ability to go ahead in spite of seemingly Insurmountable obstacles such as depressions, unem­ ployment, trade barriers, foreign com­ petition and numerous other condi­ tions that have made the average business man lower his chin upon his chest and bemoan his fate. Henry Ford should know what trouble and disappointment mean— and be should have in his possession facta that substantiate his belief that new eras of prosperity are in store for us all.* v The story of his rise from a humble mechanic to the head of one of the largest corporations in the world is an American story throughout, and it should be an inspiration to those who constantly complain of bad busi­ ness conditions -nd lack of opportun­ ity. The average person is too prone to think that because the world has become so highly specialized and competitive things are not the same as they were when Henry Eord begun his long and tedious battle for exist­ ence whch resulted in massing an al­ most fabulous fortune. In theory conditions are not the same, but in fact there is Ittle difference. The United States is a vast oppor­ tunity in itself. The destiny of the nation is clear-cut and well-defined, and its fulfillment only awaits confi­ dent and able leadership. That des­ tiny will never be realized so long as men and women rest upon their oars and look bel.ind them, bemoaning the fact that the "good old days" are gone forever. Henry Ford believes that there are times ahead for the country that will make Americans forget “the good old days.* He sees the United States as the absolute leader in world affairs. He believes that the vast empire to which he has devoted his life will become greater as a result of the advancement of the nation and the will of its people. He is not frightened at the future — he looks forward to it with confidence. It is safe to say—and a study of the accomplishments of Henry Ford, one of the nation's greatest industrial­ ists. will bear out his statement — that he has never looked back. The past is not for him; it is the future that fascinates him and drives him to more expansion, more research and more work. Henry Ford’s statement on his 76th birthday should be an inspiration to all, but most especially should it be a great encouragement to the youth of the land who have wallowed in despondency for the last few years. Unemployment is at its peak, that is true—the nation's debt continues to pile up—business for many Is bad— but these things have been true aLo in the past, and they have been lick­ ed by a determined American people —a people born in and dedicated to progress— and we believe, as Henry Ford believes, tha tthe United States is not done, that it is not ready to quit and that, with God’s' aid, it nev­ er will be. It is a tremendous task — but so were the settlement of the wilderness, the struggle for freedom, the over­ coming of internal strife in the Civil war which resulted in a closer union, the winning of the World war, and numerous other events in the histary of this country. ‘ * What this nation needs is more men like Henry Ford and a youth coming into control of the country which does not know when it is lick­ ed. That is the answer to the threat of need and depression. That will solve many of our greatest difficulties and put us once more In the middle of the road that leads to prosperity and happiness for all. — Adrian Daily Telegram. True Brotherhood. Today, when the world seems beset by discord and strife, there is greater need than eve rto pause and quietly to contemplate the nature of true brotherhood ,for in this way only can the real solution of present diffi­ culties be found, whereby harmony re­ places discord and peace supplants strife. The words “for we be brethren" (Genesis 13:8) have echoed down the centuries and are as applicable to conditions today as they were then. A sense of true brotherliness inspir­ ed Abram when a dispute arose be­ tween his herdsmen and those of Lot; He said. "Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdmen and thy herd­ men; for we be brethren." A peace­ ful agreement followed, and as a re­ sult of his higher concept of brother­ ly Jove .Abram became the recipient of increased blessings. Would that ail differences large or small, among nations and individuals’’might be set­ tled in like manner! That which proved to be a valuable as well as a joyful experience came to a student of Christian Science who had always treasured in her heart the wealth and beauty of the words “for we be brethren." There came an op­ portunity to travel to distant coun­ tries where languages other than her own. were spoken. Then the argument assailed her that she might meet with many difficulties through her inability to speak other languages, she lifted her thouhgt to the spiritual nature of man, and affirmed the truth that all Gods children dwell together in love and contentment; that, since man is made in His image and likeness, he is loving and beloved, and this fact could only be expressed in under­ standing and concord. Could there, she asked herself, be misunderstand­ ing and confusion when the divine graces expressed in courtesy, tact, and graciousness are native qualities to all men, regardless of the language they speak? Never 'did she have more brotherly kindness and loving consideration shown her, everywhere and by everyone. Such a true sense of service was expressed by all alike, that she felt abundantly enriched by a greater spiritual comprehension of that brotherliness which recognizes no barrier of language or race. Christian Scientists are earnestly seeking, day by day, to exemplify in their daily contacts the true meaning of the brotherhood of man. For they know that only as this is demonstrat­ ed in the lives of individuals can it be proved in the conduct of nations. Much inspiration and help has been on this subject in the Christian Sci­ ence textbook. "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, who, following in the footsteps of the master Christian, re­ vealed the source of true brotherhood in these words (pp. 469, 470): "With one Father, even God, the whole fam­ ily of man would b« brethren; and with one Mind and that God, or good, the brotherhood of man would con­ sist of Love and Truth, and have un­ ity of Principle and spiritual power which constitute divine Science.’ Mrs. Eddy also writes (The First Church of Christ, Scientist, and Mis­ cellany, p. 220), “Each day I pray for the pacification of all national diffi­ culties, for the brotherhood of man, for the end of idolatry and infidelity, and for the growth and establishment of Christian religion—Christ's Chris­ : tlanity.” May we. too, pray with, the same faith, confidence, and/trust which exalted her prayer! Many still believe that disputes in­ volving nations must be settled by means of force, and that differences i among individuals can be overcome by । righteous indignation and rebuffs; but this was not the method and manner of the greatest Teacher the world has ever known, Christ Jesus. Under his tutorage, the beloved disciple, John, said. (I John 4:20), "He that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?” Insofar as we express kindness, love, and good will to our brother man, do we love God, the Father and Mother of all.

Now, as never before, the world is hungering for spiritualized thinking. With more devout consecration, let us make a renewed effort and begin to replace every unkifid thought about our fellow man with Jove, ev­ ery argument of resentment with compassion, every hard thought with gentleness. All who thus strive to overcome evil with good are doing their part ultimately to bring peace on earth. In referring to Christian Scientists, Mrs. Eddy says (Miscel­ laneous Writings, p. 348).

MISSIONARY SOCIETY’ The Striker-Quimby school reunion Thursday at Reed's landing, Thornap­ ple lake, attracted some 75 or 100 people for a delightful gathering. Mra. Nellie Fancher of Baltimore, for­ mer vice president, was made presi­ dent. and George Scott of Quimby is vice president, and Lena Lipkey of Hastings, secretary-treasurer. I The August meeting of the Mis­ sionary society was held in the small park on Main street, a* was the July meeting which proved so enjoyable out of doors. The business session was conducted first, and began with the secretary's and treasurer's reports. There were no communicatons. Our president appointed Mrs. Hu­ bert Wilson and Mrs. Hale Sackett a committee to see about tying off two quilts the week of Aug. 6. It was asked that each member give two glasses of jelly for the Dea­ coness Home nt Grand Rapids. The program committee appointed by the president consists of Mra. Ed. Hafner, Miss Effa Dean and Mrs. Hale SacketL It was decided to make more of our quarterly meetings this year, and with that thought in mind it was vot­ ed to invite the Barryville ladies to be uur guests in September when we will hold our first quarterly meeting of the new year. We were reminded to" be thinking about clothing and gifts for our Christmas box. Just when this is to go we will be notified a little later. | Miss Effa Dean led the devotional period, the thought for which was 1 "Stewardship." and the word "First." At this time two hymns, "Have Thine Own Way, Lord" and 'Take My Life and Let it Be" were sung, followed by a season of prayer. Mrs. Ed. Purchis had charge of'thfry Stewardship service, during which । the red, green and purple candles, were lighted, each candle signifying j our Personality. Possessions and' prayer. Short stories pertaining to• these symbols were told by Mra. Will Dean. Mra. Plumley and Mias Effa Dean. Mrs. Wright then read a •' poem. "Stir Me. O Lord, to Pray.” Mrs. Ed. Hafner concluded the j program with an article on “The World Day of Prayer in Argentina.” Mrs. Parks dosed the meeting with ' prayer. Those not present missed a very helpful afternoon.

Of Conservation All specie* of fish arc biting satis­ factorily tn moat sect ana of northern Michigan, and fair results are being obtained in the majority of counties south of the Grand Traverse region, according to a summary prepared by the state department of conservation. Good fishing prevails in the upper peninsula. Bass, bluegills and wall­ eyed pike were among the leaders in the area north’of the Wisconsin line. Trollmg for trout on Lake uperior at ■ the western end was reported as excellent. The heat wave produced “spotty" trout angling. Trout streams in the western upper peninsula district were receding, and fishing had steadily im­ proved. In Menominee and Delta counties a number of small streams were down to a low water level which adversely affected fish life. The beat trout fishing in the locality was in large rivers carrying cooler water. Good trout catches were general in eastern sections. Below the Straits, northern counties found fishing "settling down to its mid-summer average,’ one official reported, indicating the effect of warm weather in slowing up fishing. Trout streams also were low, and the scarcity of flies made grasshoppers and artificial flies tempting trout bait Fair fishing marked the Alpena dis­ trict, with pike biting faster than the previous week. In the Huron national forest region all specea showed up in excellent fashion. Around Roscom­ mon fishing divided between "fair and poor.”' Northwest of Grand Rapids there had been no ram in two weeks, causing less favorable lake fishing. Counties surrounding Midland sawslow fishing but better than the week before. Larger bluegills were being taken than in several years, satai the Kala­ mazoo district summary. Calico baas in the area were doing a normal amount of biting. Elsewhere in the southern counties, fishing was "spot­ ty" and prospects were better. Warranty Deeds. Keith E.

Unless you believe in the the­ ory that the nation tn a mysterious way is able year after year to spend more than it receives, just put on your fighting clothes and get ready for a campaign to elect those who will vote as well as talk economy or. perhaps, sweat and dig for more mon­ ey to pay higher taxes.

Many friends in '37 and frequently since have urged me to be a candidate for governor; others have suggested that I make the run for the United States Senate; some others may sug­ gest that I attempt to be dog warden or pound master. Some have per­ sistently circulated the rumor that I am a candidate for this, that and the other. Please take it from me, I will not be a candidate for any office ex­ cept that of Congressman from the 4th Congressional district * For five years consistently have I voted for economy; against a change in our form of government; for the right of every man to work when and where he could get a job at wages satisfactory to him. During the re­ mainder of my term I intend to fol­ low the same course and’ on that plat­ form I will be a candidate in ”40. If anyone else can do a better job, a job more to your liking on a platform that you think is better, here is wish­ ing him luck. In all humility may I suggest that if such a gentleman comes to see you, just have him point out to you in detail how he would have acted dif­ ferently than I did and what more he can do for you in the future than I can.

In the background Is the loudspeaker An electrical device which, under control of an operator at a keyboard, actually creates speech was demon­ strated recently at the Franklin In­ stitute, Philadelphia. Known as the Vodor, It is a development of the Bell Telephone Laboratories as a scientific novelty to make an inter­ esting educational exhibit for the Bell System's displays at the Golden Gate International Exposition at San Francisco and at the World's Fair in New York. It is built, except for its keys, entirely of apparatus used In everyday telephone service. First Ever to Create Speech The Voder Is the first machine in the world to create speech. Individ­ ual vowels and consonants have been made by a variety of instru­ ments, but they have never been linked into connected speech. Seated at a keyboard something like that of the old-fashioned parlor organ, an operator can have the instrument carry on a conversation simply by pressing keys, singly or in combina­ tion. It takes a good deal of practice and some time to learn to operate the Yoder:—not as much time as it takes the human to learn the speech mechanisms he is born with, but still quite a while. And It talks with what might be called a slight electrical accent. Nevertheless, a skilled operator can make It say what she wants. Two Kinds of Speech Bounds Designers of the Voder have pro­ vided it with electrical equipment corresponding to the two kinds of speech sounds. In human speech, one kind of sound la made by forc­ ing the breath through the mouth, past tongue, teeth and lips. Turbu­ lence tn the -air-stream sets up a hissing sound which contains a great many vibration frequencies. from which the words issue. Upper right: Finger operation of the control keys. Oval: Keys with covers removed, showing electrical contacts. |j Some of these are reinforced by resonances in the mouth cavity; that is the way in which are made all the sounds of speech when one whispers, and such sounds as s. th, and f. In the Vodor there Is an elec­ trical hiss, and with some of the keys the operator can control its quality so as to make those sounds. Other keys make the “stop conso­ nants" like d, k, and p. Pedal and Switch Controls Tones Another kind of sound enters into human speech, most importantly In the vowels, like a, e, and o. It comes from the vocal cords, and Is very complex and somewhat musical. In the Voder, therefore, there is an electrical source of sound corre­ sponding to the vocal cords; and there is a pedal for changing its pitch and for giving to speech a ris­ ing or falling Inflection as desired. When the operator wants the sounds made by the vocal cords, instead of whispered sounds or consonants, she depresses an arm-rest switch. Then the particular parts of this vocalized sound which are wanted are selected by playing the proper keys. Long Practice Is Required There are twenty-three different sounds available to the Voder oper­ ator. By combinations of keys she can mix these sounds and by the fingering she can control the shad­ ing. All speech sounds can be pro­ duced, but the number any operator can make use of depends on her fiuge-dexterity. Even granted the ability, only long practice brings ■MIL The young ladles who wl’l oper­ ate the Voder at San Francisco and New York were selected from more than three hundred telephone oper­ ators, and through long practice they have acquired a sufficient 'to- cabulary" to converse on ordir-iry subjects. Sounds in the Voder’s repertoire are not confined to those of the human voice. Bleating of sheep, low­ ing of cattle, grunting of pigs, and even the rat-a-tat of the woodpecker are produced with perfect realism. Outgrowth of Basic Research The Voder Is an outgrowth of fundamental researches in te­ lephony carried on in the Bell Tele­ phone Laboratories. In the course of one of those researches a speech synthesiser was developed which could be controlled electrically by a speech analyzer. This was demon­ strated in September. 1936, at the Harvard Tercentenary In Cam­ bridge. When the Bell System exhibits were being planned for the exposi­ tions at San Francisco and NewYork, the synthesizer part of the apparatus seemed to offer possibili­ ties for development into a novel demonstration which would have educational value, since through its use the formation of speech sounds can be shown. Nickname Recalls Emperor Pedro To Vs Intimates, the Voder la known as "Pedro” as a reminder of an interesting bit of history. In 1878 the telephone itself had just been invented, and it was on display in Philadelphia's “Centennial Exposi­ tion." Dom Pedro, Emperor of Brazil, was asked to listen while Alexander Graham Bell, its inven­ tor, talked from a few hundred feat away. "My God! It talks." Dom Pedro exclaimed. Were he alive to­ day. he would not marvel nt hearing voices by wire and radio from his capital. But If he heard words that had never come from a human voice, his exclamation of 1876 might wen ba repeated. �MAMvaxa Micwa, thvkhoav. alg. n, im WEDDINGS. Townsend Club.

MICHIGAN SILO FIRM MOVES TO CHARLOTTE The Michigan Silo company has es­ tablished a plant in Charlotte, with offices in the brick building on Prairie street formerly occupied by the East Side grocery, moving here from Kal­ amazoo. Hale Harrington, the man­ ager. came here from Kalamazoo. The concern has a patented concrete silo with a waxed inside, and is doing an extensive business throughout the south. It has other plants in Peoria, HI.; Massillon, Ohio; Bloomfield. Ind.; and Baltimore. Maryland. Walter Blanchard of Bloomfield, Ind., presi­ dent of the company, has been- in Charlotte this week. In addition to the silo business, the company han­ dles milking machines and silo fillers. The staves for the silos produced by the companys local branch are made by Gale Briggs, proprietor of a trucking company, and who has his plant at the corner of Lincoln, Semi­ nary and State streets. Mr. Briggs' major business is heavy trucking, spe­ cializing in cement, and he has been hauling for the Michigan Silo com­ pany for five years. Trucking is a seasonal business, and in order to stabilize employment for his drivers, he has taken on the making of the silo staves. — Charlotte Republican Tribune. News in Brief Mix-Grein.

Cost Of Loan Is One Cent Per Bushel Which T*ke« Care Of All Loans on 1939 wheat may now be obtained by any farmer in Barry county who has complied with the wheat provisions of the 1939 Agricul­ tural Conservation program. Wheat may be stored on the farm or taken to the Transit Warehouse Corporation’’s ^levator in Battle Creek. If stored on the farm a loan of 69c may be obtained on No. 2 wheat The money will be available in just a few days after the grain is inspected in the bins. These loans may be paid up at any time before May 1st, 1940.. by paying the face of the loan plus 4 per cent interest. The cost of obtaining a farm loan is 1c per bushel with a minimum of $3.00. This fee takes care of all expenses of measuring and sampling the wheat and handling the papers through the local office and the Detroit branch. Additional insurance on the wheat will have to be carried to cover the loan value of the wheat. This insur­ ance costs 75c per $100.00 of the loan. This will all be handled through the local A. C. A. office at Hastings. If taken to the Battle Creek ware­ house all the farmer has to do is to to bring the warehouse receipts from the elevator to the Barry county A. C. A. office and the loan will all be handled trom there. The cost of the loan on elevator stored wheat is $1.50 u pto 600 bushels. Over that amount is 14c per bushel. This fee pays the expense of handling the papers thru the local office and the Detroit agen­ cy. The fee should be paid at the time of application for a loan. If a loan is taken on farm stored wheat and the price stays down so that the farmer does not wish to pay up the loan. the Crop Insurance Corp, will take over the wheat on May 1st and the farmer must deliver the wheat to his local elevator. The corporation will then pay him 7c per bushel for storage on the wheat. Through this loan the farmer is guar­ anteed 76c per bushel for his wheat if No. 2 or better. He will get 69c loan plus 7c storage if the loan is not paid up by May 1st, 1940. U wheat does go up he may pay the loan at any time and he may sell the wheat at the advanced price. In any event he is sure -of 76c per bushel on No. 2 wheat Anyone who desires additional in­ formation on wheat loans may call at the Barry county A. C. A. office at Hastings at any time as all informaticn available on wheat loans is now in the oflice at 118 1-2 N. Jefferson St., Hastings. Two Main St. Store Managers On Trips Louis Carter Of Kroger and Kenneth Chappell Of Lines Were Away Last Week. Two Main street store managers, Louis Carter,, Kroger store, and Ken­ neth Chappell, Lines store, were on vacation and covering considerable distances by motor, and seeing worth while things last week. Mr. Carter was accompanied by his wife and his .brother and wife, and their trip took them through Penn­ sylvania and the mountains, and to Niagara Falls, with New York City and the mammoth World's Fair their real destination. They enjoyed ev­ ery minute of the trip, which most varied. Mr. Chappell and his family had some visits in mund. and these took them into Ohio and to Toronto, Can­ ada. with Niagara Falls visited en­ route. Then they went up through Canada to see the Dionne Quintuplets at Callender, and also saw Dr. DaFoe and Papa Dionne: to tne Canadian and Michigan Soos, saw the famous locks, crossed Mackinac Straits on the state ferry, enroute home—just one good time.

Modest Charles Skeele Palmer has “just turned 81," still refusing to own one of the automobiles whose de­ velopment he made possible. "There's never been a car in the family," smilingly admits the retired scientist who invented the basic pro­ cess for cracking oils to gasoline. “Not a one of us can drive. But I do take rides in them occasionally with my friends." The shy little man who spends most of the days reading the Bible and Shakespeare and the nights scanning the heavens with his teles­ cope first got the idea of making gas­ oline while teaching chemlistry at University of Colorado back in 1839. “Crude gasoline had been found in its natural state in the earth,' ex­ plained Dr. Palmer. "I knew it had been produced there by tremendous pressure and heat . So I set out to do the same thing artificially. I had a long steel cylinder constructed into which I poured crude oils. Then I subjected the oil to extreme heat and pressure and charted the distillates. One of them was gasoline." Dr. Palmer patented his process in 1907 and nine years later sold it to the Standard Oil Co. of Indiana for what his daughter, Leigh Palmer, described as “a mere pittance con­ sidering what it was worth to the oil industry." The scientist was a fellow with Mellon institute from 1915-17 and consulting chemist for the United Fuel Gas Co. of Charlestown, W. Va., just prior to his retirement . He de­ fined the chemical terms for Web­ ster’s international dictionary in 1890. Incidentally, the professor is con­ vinced Shakespeare actually lived and operated a string of theaters but never wrote the works accredited to him, declaring "Lord Bacon did that." “World Feece." One of the greatest evils besetting the human race is war—it is the great destroy­ er. It always has been and is at the present time. It Is a destroyer of men’s bodies a destroyer of wealth which has been carefully gathered through the years of toil. It is a destroyer of ideals and moral stan­ dards which have been attained thru generations of spiritual striving and conquest. May God save us from an­ other war! What a sweet word "Peace" is! It is the desire of every heart Nations seek for it Families plan for it In­ dividuals seek for it. Labor and cap­ ital desire it Only the Prince of Peace can give it! The Lord Jesus is the Prince of Peace. He is the Maker of it and the Giver. He said, "That in Me ye might have peace.” Peace will not be found in the turmoil of this life, with its trials and troubles. Peace may be found by quiet resting at the feet of Christ Peace will not come by try­ ing to stem the storm yourself, but rather by speaking to the Lord of the storm and watch Him perform the miracle. Peace is a gift. "My peace I give unto you-’ The hand of faith accepts the gift of peace and relinquishes the hold on the wheel. We rest our wor- The convening of the first World Poultry Congress in Cleve­ land brings to light some rather re­ markable reflections on the extent to which wealth is produced by what seems to be on most farms only a sideline. Few farms in the United States specialize in chicken raisng or egg producing ;in fact three-quarters of all the eggs sold on the market come from flocks of 100 bens or few­ er. Yet last year chickens and eggs produced almost one billion dollars— $990,000,000 to be exact—gross in­ come for American farmers. That, as one delegate to the Poultry Congress expressed it, is enough to make the income of the United States Steel Corporation “look like chicken feed.” Indeed it does, with second-quarter earnings of the steel corporation re­ ported at only $1,309,761. But if the comparative wealth pro­ duced by poultry and U. S. Steel seems spectacular, here is another comparison that is even more start­ ling. The single state of Iowa, is a normal crop year, will produce more dollars from its soil in agricultural products than all the gold produced in all the gold mines of the world. We have become blinded in this country to the real basic* sources of wealth. We have come to look on bi gbusineess, on flashy operations like gold mining, on get-rich-quick fields like oil wells as the source of a major portion of our wealth. We have been prone to forget that the youngster on a farm, feeding a few pigs every night and morning, or gathering the eggs from half a hun­ dred chickens, is engaged in a bigger business, from the standpoint of the production of wealth, than the head of a great store, the superintendent of a large mill, the owner of a mine or the locator of new petroleum fields. We need to be everlastingly re­ minded that the main source of our wealth lies in the soil, where it is to be dug out only by the process of plowing, planting, cultivating and reaping. The other processes that extract wealth from the soil, such as mining, quarrying and refining, are of far leas importance in the econ­ omic scheme of things than simple farming. Agriculture is big business, and all its components, from poultry to parsnips, are units as productive of wealth as the biggest corporations in manufacturing, mining or transpor­ tation. That is why it is just as important to look to the condition of the farms as it is to scan the produc­ tion figures of big *business when we want a true picture of the state of the nation.—Adrian Daily Telegram. Where Wealth Li.*. The Recovery Senator Vandenberg Prospect. made a prediction in Detroit this week that describes the difference between hav­ ing gasoline and water in the fuel tank His prediction had to do with the poesibiliea of our going forward. He said we quite probably can and wil) go if we get rid of what's clog­ ging the machinery and substitute something with which the machinery can run. We will do it by substituting con­ fidence for lack of confidence. Senator Vandenberg is no wishful thinker. He deals with realities. What he says about alluring and hopeful prospects ahead is not said for the mere pleasantry of sound or the mere exercise of oratorical en­ thusiasm. For a long time it has seemed as though the process of escape and re­ covery from the mess of this existing muddling in national affairs would be long and difficult and doubtful. The forty or more billions of debt, the crushing load of interest, the habits of dependency and of waste, and of debauchery by federal privilege that have been built up to represent a sickness which, if the ordinary pro­ cesses of recovery must be followed, would involve a very long and diffi­ cult convalescence. Senator Vandenberg secs a differ­ ent prospect now. So do many other observers. The view is not a pa: tisan one; it is not colored by political en­ thusiasm on the one hand or preju­ dices on the other. It is a prediction drawn from some very well understood facts. The country has a vast accumulation of needs. It has millions of idle capi­ tal waiting investment—waiting an opportunity to earn a living. It has a great store of new inventions ready to market If tomorrow, there could be the gift,’ by some process, of confidence; if by tomorrow there could be gener­ al agreement that there was a better chance ahead, with reasonable assuranre of a free field in which to work and expand and In which to develop opportunity—then by tomorrow the wheels would begin to move swiftly and the calls-back to jobs would sound throughout the country. As to the facilities for dealing with the debt situation. Senator Vanden­ berg says that within six months from the tme when confidence began to operate, we would have reached the eighty billion dollar point in the vol­ ume of our business, and from that point we could begin to collect the needed revenue to meet our obliga­ tions, balance our budget, and thus Impress the country with new confi­ dence. It is an attractive prospect; it has the comfort of having beeen revealed by logic instead of dreams.—Battle Creek Enquirer News.

The county has 819.6 miles of "Mc­ Nutt" or former township roads, not Including those in villages and subdi­ visions, also 225.34 miles of county roads, or a total of 1,041.94 miles of highway to maintain. The county- is taking over 10 per cent of this amount of federal secondary roads in the county, which would be 104.494 miles of the total of 118.5 miles, or virtually all but 14 miles. The fed­ eral government will pay one-half of the maintenance or construction of roads taken over by the county. The federal secondary roads are: InghamEaton county line road. 22 miles; Bel­ levue-Ionia road. 22 miles; from Mul­ liken south to M-50 north of Gres­ ham, 8.5 miles ;road between Olivet and A Inger, 3 miles; Otto-Strangs road, 13.5 miles; Dimondale-Delta Mills road, 9 miles; Narrow lake road, 10.5 miles; North Brookfield road from Eaton Rapids west to M-78. 14 miles; Potterville-Vermontville road, 16 miles. The county highway department has let the contract for 20,000 gal­ lons of gasoline to the J. & S. Service station of Charlotte. The depart­ ment also has taken out a wholesale distributors' license, which does away with the bother of paying the three cents a gallon gasoline tax and then, having it rebated, a practice which still is followed in connection with the federal gasoline tax. The county highway department is another step nearer its proposed road paving program, according to a report by its engineer, Harvey A. Williams. The department has re­ ceived the equipment for blacktop­ ping it recently purchased from Ing­ ham county. The first blacktopping is to be done on Eaton-Ingham coun­ ty line road, where a new bridge over Grand river was recently completed, at the rear of Deepdale cemetery, near US-27. —Portland now has a branch office of the secretary of state, at which will be issued motor vehicle licenses, and through which transfers in auto­ moblee titles will be handled.

These conces­ sions being predicated as the expec­ tation that a local co-operative can­ ning company would be formed this fall to purchase the physical equip­ ment of the plant and thus give this community a going and profitable in­ dustry of benefit to all as well as pay­ ing the creditors the highest possible percentage and paying the labor claims in full. All expenses have been paid to date and the local re­ ceiver is now in position to dispose of the plant at any tme. Interven­ tion in the nature of bankruptcy proceedngs will only increase the legal fees, expense of notices and be a duplication of the work already ac­ complished.

The young people representing Nashville at the Riverside assembly and boys’ and girls' camps returned Sunday evening after a ten day per­ iod crowded with experiences never to be forgotten.

Perseid meteors, “tears of St Law­ rence,” fragments of other worlds, are due to streak across the sky in large numbers during the next few nights. Astronomers forecast best seeing the greater numbers after mid­ night. The moon which does not rise until late wll cause little interference. Earth entered the ^borders of this never-failing stream of celestial visit­ ors during July, but it takes until mid-August to hit the “iively” por­ tion. Perseids never have failed to turn in a good show for hundreds of years, according to records. “Falling stars," some people call them as they silently crack the sky. But real stars are immense suns at least several trillions of miles off ta space. Early astronomers explained them as explosions of gases collecting in space, the descent of fragments tossed aloft bj; volcanoes, or debris strung between the earth and the moon when these bodies were torn apart by mighty forces. The speed with which many of the large meteorites travel, however, sug­ gest that they originate beyond the solar system and come from distant stars, becoming visible only when they strike the earth's atmosphere. D. S. Class Party. The D. S. Sunday school class of the Methodist church met at the Community House Friday for a 12:30 luncheon. After the meal, a short worship service was conducted by the pastor. A short business meeting was held. The empty fruit cans were presented again to be filled. The traveling basket was soon emptied of its contents, which brought in its bit and together with the dues made a nice addition to the pledge. Quite a time was spent in playing "Who Am I?” which consisted of guessing who each described Bible character was. Glad to have Mrs. Emily Mix. an old member, back with us.

INGREDIENTS BOXED ON CHARLOTTE STREET The French Milling Co. five ton truck and a car driven by Albin Fast figured in a mix-up at the intersection near the Higby farm in Brookfield. The Fast car was wrecked, but he carried insurance covering damage to other vehicles which proves to be a lucky break in this mishap. Fast crashe^. the car at about 60 miles an hour into the truck, which was on a through highway, taking a load of flour, sugar and salt for delivery in Olivet. The truck was tipped over and smashed, and its cargo was ruined. Fast received a scratch on the leg and bump on the head. EVANGELICAL SUPPER NETTED $20.00 The supper sponsored by the Evan­ gelical Ladies* Aid society and given in the church basement Tuesday night netted over $20.00. which was very good, considering the heavy rain at the supper hour. Edith Park. Wri Again From Africa (Continued from first page.) We called on the Doctor and his wife. He was out playing golf. They have three cute children Anne, Claire and Michael. The natives are very enthusiastic over the Doctor. One! of the native teachers said. ‘ You know he is a Christian for he is so happy and kind.” They added that he was kind to them and that no one needed to be afraid of him. “We're so glad to have this Doclot; he is really a mission doctor." I don’t know whether Ila Scoville will come here or not No one knows yet where sne’il go. The couple com­ ing with her are the Roberts, who are from the Church **>oa rd and will go back to Mutambara. I wonder if you heard Bishop Springer at the Jack­ son Conference. No the natives of our mission do not smoke. The habit is very com­ mon. otherwise, as the Church of England uses both tobacco and liquor, as do many of the missions. As far as I know the Salvation Army and our Methodist missions are all who object as the English Methodists smoke. In fact three of our teachers from the'.r school this year smoke and it Is causing a lot of furore. Smok­ ing is so universal among the whites here. July 16, 1939—Alice has been hav­ ing the flu and was very weak, but was called for a maternity case in the country. She found the mother in suck serious condition she took her to Mtoka for the doctor to care for. Alice hadn’t been able to even go to the dispensary, and here she had to go on this case and ride 30 miles on horrible washboard roads, besides all the worry. She is back home here in bed now. I hope I have persuaded her to go slow until she conquers her cough and gets built up. She is so thin and run down that all are worr ed about her. We didn't have prayer meeting to­ night on account of all the “halt and the blind.” Mrs. O’Farrell is suffer­ ing from rheumatism and stayed in bed all morning. I am all well, rest­ ed. and strong, and the only mission­ ary at church this morning. I'll tell you about my first funeral here. A Mr. Rugwete, a native de­ monstrator, who lived over on the Reserve and had two children in school, was found dead Thursday morning at the foot of a cliff with a bullet wound In his side. He had gone out the night before with his gun to hunt. Whether he accidentally shot himself while standing at the edge of the cliff and so fell over, no one knows. Doctor and police delided it was accidental. Because of the in­ quest his funeral was delayed till Fri­ day afternoon. Moses, the native pastor, sent us a note about 1 p. m. saying. "Dear Miss Whitney and Miss Parks, perhaps you will want to come to the funeral. The grave may be dug in a few minutes and if so we will have the funeral soon.” With nat­ ives “in a few minutes" can mean most anything. Sally, Beulah and I went over in 15 or 20 minutes to the cemetery, just 1-4 mile or so north and east of our house. I’d never been there before. It didn’t look much like a cemetery. There was quite a group of graves, but just in the bush amidst trees, tall brush, .tall grass all in a tangle. Most of the graves were cov­ ered with slabs of flat stones so they stood some 5 or 6 inches above the ground. One or two had crude mark­ ers. It was' utterly unkempt. Well, we got there late, for the service was nearly over and the men were just lowering the coffin into the grave. The body had been put into a large rough box. made at the shop out of flooring boards and some old soap boxes, covered with 12 yards of white muslin. As usuai, I’m told, the men took quite a time to lower tre body amid discussions and controversy as to how it should be done. This does not seem to bother them in the least Soon after, Moses read the rest of the burial service, and we were dismissed with the benediction. Then his widow and sister sobbed loudly as they left but made no other demonstration. The rest of us followed, except some of the men who stayed to fill the grave and lay on the handsfu! of flowers a few had brought It surely was dif­ ferent from a funeral at home with all its skiUful planning, quiet, and ar­ ray of flowers. cial* Criticize State’* Parking Law ALONG MAIN STREET. f Caution Asked For Labor Day Vers lie Babcock is now the sok’ proprietor of the Dug Out Coffee shop, which was. opened July 22 in Poi re And Highway Heads Say Ban the Purchis block by Varaile and Sam dO Angle Parking Cannot Be Varney, having bought the latter’s Over HoUdBy.

The quality of mercy is not strained, It droppeth as the gentle rain from Heaven Upon the place beneath. It Is twice blessed: It blesseth him that gives and him that takes. Tis mightiest in the mightiest, it be­ comes The throned monarch better than his crown; His sceptre shows the force of tem­ poral power, The attribute to awe and majesty. Wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings ; But mercy is above this sceptred sway, It is enthroned in the hearts of kings. It is an attribute to God himself, And earthly power doth then show likest God’s When mercy seasons justice. Orrots Aid Before you go for Night Driving, that evening spin in your car, eat a cou­ ple of carrots—for safety. Miss May E. Foley, Massachusetts State college nutritionist, explained that carrots contain vitamin A, which prevents night blindness. "A person whose vision in dim light is impaired due to lack of vita­ min A," said Miss Foley, "can eat a serving of carrots before he goes out driving in the evening and be assured that his vision will be better." The Cost Of War. The last war cost the world— 10,000,000 young men killed in battle. , 20,000,000 young men wounded. 20,000,000 civilians who died as a by-product of war, from star­ vation, massacre and pesti­ lence. The- last war- cost- the United States— 39.362 soldiers killed in battle. 90,766 who died of wounds, dis­ ease, accidents and other caus­ es. 1,863,289 veterans admitted to government hospitals. The total financial loss to the United States, including war loans and relief, to date, is $77,000,000,000 —or nearly twice the present record high national debt And the financial loss figures will continue to climb. The cost of war Is staggering, un­ bearable and unbelievable. “Never M*n Spake Like This Man!" Never man spake as Christ spake. I should like yo uto think and look with me at God’s Son, Jesus Christ, as a preacher, a physician, a com­ forter and a Saviour. Talk about preachers! I would rather a thousand times be five min­ utes at the feet of Christ than listen a lifetime to all the wise men in the world. Why, He used to hang truth upon anything! Yonder is a sower, a fox, a bird, and He just gathers the truth around them so that you can­ not see a fox. a sower, or a bird with­ out thinking about what Jesus said. There is a lily of the valley; you can­ not see It without thinking of His words, “They toil not, neither do they spin.' He makes the sparrow chirp­ ing in the air preach to us How fresh those sermons are and how they live today! The childrenlove His sermons. And yet how profound He was. He puzzled the wise men: how the scribes and the Phari­ sees could never fathom Him! Now let us look at Christ as a phy­ sician. No case was ever brought to Christ that He could not master. He had but to speak the words and dis­ ease fled before Him. Here comes a man covered with leprosy. "Lord, if Thou wilt. Thou canst make me dean," he cries. "I will.’ says the great physician, and instantly the leprosy is gone. There was no incur­ able diseases with Him. Now aee Christ at the Ettle home in Bethany, binding up the wounded hearts of Martha and Mary; Christ is a comforter. The weary may find a retting place upon that breast and the friendless may reckon Him their friends. He never varies, He never falls. He never dies. His sympathy is ever fresh. His love is ever free. Thank God today for Christ the Com­ forter. The mountain-top mission of Christ was to redeem men and wo­ men. You cannot fully appreciate Him as a preacher, a physician, and a comforter until you receive Him as your own personal Saviour. Certain­ ly the One. who was Life itself can speak life to dying men and women if those men and women will but meet the simple conditions that Christ has asked them to meet. Here are the conditions. By meeting them you can be eternally saved and know Christ as your Saviour: "If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt be­ lieve in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believe th unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." Romans 10:9-10.— Today’s Gospel Truth, by Irving G. Wahlstrom. Getting At The Dies committee reThe Truth, port on foreign propa­ ganda in the United States touches the basic issue of the present European dispute and brings forcibly to the attention of the Am­ erican people the efforts being made to involve us In Europe’s troubles. In the report, which charges that hundreds of agents of foreign gov­ ernments arc flooding this country with propaganda in an effort to shape the American foreign policy, there is this awertlon: "When all of the war slogans have been stripped away from the underlying Interests which they conceal, it is plain on the one hand that certain nations have em­ pires and want to keep them and on the other hand that other nations do not have empires (not‘imposing ones at least) but want to acquire them. . . . These are the issues reduc­ ed to their simplest terms." There need be no confusion in Am­ erican minds about the real issues now confronting Europe. And there need be no doubt that the opposing sides will make every attempt to bring this country into a position mat best will benefit their Interests should war come. The greatest danger in the propa­ ganda flood now sweeping the United States is that considc. able of it is so cleverly camouflaged it passes not as propaganda, but as fact. It has to do tills, else it would not succeed in Its purpose. Fortunately those who must be deceived to make the propaganda successful are the most likely to dis­ cover the deception. Historic American policy requires that this nation stay free of European entanglements and if this principle re­ mains foremost m the minds of our statesmen the United States should be able to survive the propaganda flood.—Battle Creek Enquirer News. Herbs Slay The production of meAid Farmers, dlcinal herbs will open a new field for New England farmers if and when experi­ ments now being conducted there by federal authorities are successful. The project, now in its fourth year, is under the direction of Forrest L. Kibee, a former druggist. Two acres of land and a greenhouse are being used in the experiment. Ten men are working on the project. Their work now consists of supervising the herb plants already under cultivation. History of the movement began with the Shaker colony in Canterbury, N. H„ which some 50 years ago did a thriving business w.th herbs—princi­ pally common varieties for simple ailments with sarsaparilla, which sold widely. The business declined. About five years ago a man named Frederick Baker came to Concord to visit his brother, a retired navy of­ ficer. Baker had studied herb grow­ ing in many foreign countries and held citations and licenses from var­ ious governments. Through his be­ lief that certain varieties of medicin­ al herbs could be grown profitably in New England, the present govern­ ment project developed. Baker went to see Secy. Wallace in Washington about the matter and an ERA project was launched with Bak­ er advising. Later tills was suspend­ ed, then resumed under WPA, and Forrest L. Kibee replaced Baker as supervisor. Successful herb production demands expert knowledge, but good profits await pioneers in the field. In the event of a major war the United States would be hard-pressed for drugs, most of which now are im­ ported. One drug, Asfetidln, comes from China. The normal price Is about $1 an ounce, but because of the SinoJapanese war the price has jumped to $22 an ounce. Saga is imported in quantities from the Balkans. The present government project in­ cludes cultivations of sage, digitalis, pyrethrum, wormwood and several hundred otner medicinal herbs, now usually imported. More than 175 varieties of plants from which medicinal agents are ex­ tracted are gradually being tried out under controlled conditions of climate and soil. . Medicinal plants are among the few products which may be raised without loss or over-production. The United States imports each year some $700,­ 000.000 worth of crude drugs and drug plants. This total has shown a steady increase since for each year since the World war as evidenced by the development of recent new medi­ cinal products. Restful Christ Jesus said (Mat­ Thinking. thew 11:28), “Come unto me, all ye that labour and arc heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Who is this “me” to whom the Way-shower invited all man­ kind ? It is. plain that he was not speaking of himself personally, be­ cause he also stated (John 5:30), “I can of mine own self do nothing.” It was the Christ, Truth, tq^which he invited all mankind. The Apostle Paul realized that only through pur­ ified thinking can the Christ be made manifest in one’s daily experiences, and he urged his followers to let the same Mind be in them “which was al­ so in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 2:5). This Mind, we are taught in Christian Science, is the divine Mind. God. Then, it is through spiritual thinking that the human sense of heavy bur­ dens is laid off. In these days the seeming complex­ ity of material activities, of human desires and ambitions, often brings an overburdened sense to men. The struggle seems too great and the re­ wards too few. Disappointment dis­ couragement. and dissatisfaction creep into their thoughts and exclude tthe truth of Life, which alone gives genuine freedom, success, prosperity, and strength. The only way to free­ dom for men lies in their discovering what Truth, God, is, what man is, as God’s’ image and likeness, and how to demonstrate man’s unity with his divine source. Each individual is free to accept Christ Jesus’ invitation to "come” to divine Truth, and thus find rest, peace, and health. In the Christian Science textbook. "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 31’6), Mary Baker Eddy says, "The real man being link­ ed by Science to his Maker, mortals need only turn from sin and lose sight of mortal selfhood to find Christ, the real man and his relationship to God. and to recognize the divine sonship." What is the real man? As revealed in the Scriptures and through Chris­ tian Science, it is the spiritual man of God's creating. The first record of spiritual man in the Bible is the statement that "God created man in his own image" (Genesis 1.27). Th s man, the real man, is the child of God. Man, as God’s image or reflec­ tion, must necessarily be rich in good. The teachings of Christ Jesus and of Christian Science deciare that each individual has God-given domin­ ion over his own thinking. Should not our individual thinking be guard­ ed more carefully man all our earth­ ly treasures? When Truth, as re­ vealed in Christian Science, dawns upon the thoughts of mankind, they awaken to the possibility of demon­ strating here and now their release from all false sense of material bond­ age. When we realize the omnipres­ ence, omnipotence, and omniscience of God, Truth, we strive to lay aside material concepts of life. Sp:ritual understanding unfolds to us our free­ dom from the illusions of the cor-» poreal senses. z Only through laying aside the false sense of human struggle and strife, and putting on the M nd of Christ, is one released from the sense of lack, pain, and futile endeavor. Whatever menaces the health and joy of man­ kind is unreal, because it is not the creation of God. good. Error dors not belong to the real man, is no part of him. Nor have erroneous exper­ iences any value for mankind, unless it be that, after finding only failure and disappointment in materiality, at last one turns to God and there finds the solution to his human problems. Suffering is not essential to refor­ mation, since through spiritual un- THVK8OAV, SKIT. 7, 1»3» Laming News Letter No More Special Platea. On and after March 1. 1940. all trick license plates will be taboo in Michigan. The familiar designations such u PDQ. BOO, I. O. U-, and OUT 3. will be missing from the high­ ways, Harry F. Kelly, Secretary of State, has decreed. The 1940 automobile license plates will be uniform for every car no mat­ ter by whom owned. The 1940 li­ cense plates will have two letters and four numbers, the letters designating the county in which th* plate is is­ sued so that law. enforcement offic­ ers can tell at a glance where the car is registered. When Harry F. Kelly took office last January he found in existence an astonishing array or variety of con­ fusing license plate numbers. Hun­ dreds of requests for similar numbers were on file, but there were promptly denied. It was of course impossible for Mr. Kelly to recall the hundreds of "special” numbers which had been Issued formerly. "There 'will be no more of the con­ fusion that resulted from the prac­ tice of issuing a huge variety of li­ cense plates which placed an almost insurmountable impediment in the way of police agencies in their effort to enforce the law and track down criminals," said Mr. Kelly. Uniformity of 1940 license plates will make possible a key filing system from which information can be given speedily to officers concerning any car that is sought, a very important matter in police work. The Secretary of State says that a saving of approximately $50,0p0 will result in the discontinuance of special plates. The saving will be in the cost of the plates and in the adminis­ trative and accounting costs at Lans­ ing. Decision to abandon the practice of issuing this type of plate was reached after a conference by Mr. Kelly with representatives of the Michigan Sher­ iffs association, the Michigan State Police, and the Detroit Police. derstending alone does consciousness become at one with God. To learn how to use one’s spiritual ability to think torthfully is an invaluable les­ son. If we accept the Mind that Christ Jesus manifested, we cannot fail to perceive the divine ideas which will meet our every need. Love is ever present to reveal to us the right foot­ steps to take, as soon as we turn to the infinite Father-Mother God for Guidance. Material sense cannot be relied upon, because It is mortal illu­ sion, without source or substance. We are constantly accepting as real eith­ er truth or error, either substance or illusion. The effect of spiritual think­ ing is made manifest in present pro­ gress, harmony, and peace. God—Spirit, Life, Truth—is ever present. Spiritual truths, obediently studied and put into practice, bring sure rewards. Mrs. Eddy says (Scieence and Health, p. 486), “Earth's preparatory school must be improved to the utmost” Surely one of the happy lessons of “earth’s preparatory school" is learning joyfully to rest in the knowledge of the omnipotence of God, at all times and under all condi­ tions.—Christian Science Monitor.

Of Conservation Trout came out of a mump toward the cloee of the season and did enough bitting to bring cheer to the anglers who on Labor Day left most trout streams and lakes for the winter, it appeared from district reports filed in the past week with the state depart­ ment of conservation. Improved trout fishing was noted In the western half of the upper penin­ sula. the region Immediately south of the Straits and the area extending from Leelanau to Grand Rapids. Heavy rains, amounting to three in­ ches In five days In some counties, kept many fishermen inactive in the eastern section of the upper penin­ sula. Raised water tables and limit­ ed Insects were reported there. Pike picked up considerably in couuties along Lake Superior, where perch also were active. In northern­ most lower peninsula counties, bass, pike and panfish were outstanding, with pike "excellent" In the Presque Isle area. All species were giving satisfaction in Leelanau, Wexford and Benzie counties, and the region extending south to Muskegon saw better trout fishing and large catches of panfish after the heavy rains there. Clare county reported good all-around ang­ ling. Crappies and bass produced ex­ cellent catches near Gladwin where bass were said to be responding to river trolling. Cooler weather in counties west of Kalamazoo resulted in satisfactory bluegill, bass and perch catches. The same was true of counties just north of the Indiana line. Among south central counties. Eaton and Ingham showed up well. In the Thumb dis­ trict Tuscola was prominent, and perch in Saginaw bay were plentiful "Deep sea" lake trout trolling con­ tinued popular in Lake Superior and Grand Traverse Bay, with lots of poundage in the fish bthr.g taken.

"Ide is not giving up the fight, however. He was in Lansing this week busily trying to find some way of more completely and convincingly presenting his case.

C. —50 miles an hour. ’ The average headlights show clear­ ly for 100 feet You cannot drive faster than 35 miles an hour if you want to stop in that distance.

Why does a man make it a rule to take off his hat when riding in a ho­ tel elevator carry ng a woman? Why will man always pause to let a lady go first when entering or leav­ ing a building? Why, at social functions, will man spend an entire evening bobbing up and down like a jumping jack when­ ever a lady enters the room? Why does man maintain a general policy of courtesy to all members of the fair sex? If you have that answer then an­ swer this one, too—just let a lady, any lady, get behind the wheel of a motor car and he thinks nothing of crowding her off the road or even sending her to the hospital if she dares for a moment to question his possession of the right of way. Why? * If courtesy is the rule, let's remem­ ber that courtesy is also the rule while driving.

Kel­ logg School Opens By Gene Alleman Near a picturesque, peaceful ham­ let of Waterloo, midway between the cities of Jackson and Ann Arbor, Un­ de Sam is conducting a novel educa­ tional experiment for Michigan youth. It is rivalled in scope only by a similar undertaking at Passantaquoddy Maine, where engineers once sought to harness ocean tides for hy­ dro-electric industrial power. Every county in Michigan is repre­ sented at Waterloo. More so than any other project, it exemplifies the vast state-wide pro­ gram of the National Youth adminis­ tration. known to most citizens as the NYA. and for which the U. S. treas­ ury will pour into Michigan $3,250,­ 000 during the 1939-40 fiscal year. Because this federal agency was the only one under Paul McNutt’s wing at Washington to receive from Congress an increase in federal ap­ propriations (WPA funds being cut, for example), we journeyed 47 miles from the state capital to Waterloo (M-92 between Chelsea and Stock­ bridge) to examine first-hand thLs unique venture into •‘new educat‘on." Hem- It Began. Three years ago the Ann Arbor Ro­ tary club, inspired by Dr. Max Peet, a surgeon at the University of Mich­ igan. made a survey of high school graduates. Many of them were found to be unefn ployed. Their parents could not afford the price of a college education. A "learn as you work" camp wan suggested. The National Park Service had. just started to convert a rugged lakewoods-and-fann area near Waterloo from unprofitable agriculture to pub­ lic recreational use. Land was pro­ vided along Cassidy lake in Jackson Wlth 407. Pupils From Two More Rural School. This rural experiment for vocation­ al experience Is the answer of the I National Youth administration to the modern complaint: There is less and less work in America today for boys of high school age; consequently, graduates are “to young" for indus- A factor in this situation, it is con­ fided, is a conviction among NYA leaders that Michigan public schools outside of the larger cities are neg­ lecting the field of industrial educa­ tion. and this in a state that ranks high in industrial development As vocational apprenticeships risk hostility of organized labor, the Cas­ sidy Lake “Tech" carefully avoids the implication of apprenticeship training. Instead, the boys who help to construct buildings under the guid­ ance of union carpenters are known as "carpenter-helpers.” The distinc­ tion seems a fine one. Until a new regulation was made in Washington, the camp provided much of its own food in form of garden produce, eggs chickens and meat. These activities were conducted by boys as a "work experience” in farm­ ing. a sort of co-operative self-sup­ port. Washington saw too much chance for abuse; now the war de­ partment supplies all food on requi­ sition orders. Administrator McNutt thus can sidestep any scandal over possible mishandling of food money. Other NYA Projects. According to NYA authorities, there are 80.000 young people in Michigan of unemployable age who are eligible for federal work assist­ ance. Of this number, approximately 24,000 will be helped during the com­ ing year. Under the direction of Orin W.

(The cook school, for example, is said to be the only one of its kind in Mich­ igan . A recent "graduate" is now assistant chef at the Statler Hotel in Detroit.) Forty boys are transported one day a week to the Ann Arbor air­ port for training as ground techni­ cians. Each youth arises at 6 a. m.. goes to a central mess hall for breakfast in shifts at 6:30 and 7 o'clock, and then follows a work-study schedule which is also maintained in two shifts. While one group of boys is in class from 7<SO to 10:30 a. m., the other shift Is busy elsewhere at work on national park projects. The after­ noon program is just the reverse.

KeUogg ichota is proud to announce its enrollment, at the close of the second day of school, has reached a peak with a to­ tal of 407 students. The enrollment last year was 382, which gives us an addition of 25 new pupils. This in­ creased enrollment is partially due to the fact that the Hosmer and Barnes schools closed last spring and some of the pupils formerly attenling these schools are coming to Nashville. Enrollment by grades is as follows: Kindergarten—34 pupils. 1st grade—27 pupils. * 2nd and 3rd grades—35 pupils. 3rd and 4th grades—35 pupils. 5th grade—27 pupils. 6th grade—31 pupils. 7st grade—31 pupils. 8th grade—41 pupils.

He saw results of policies of starvation forced by each side against the other. He knows how President Wilson labored in vain against Europe's master minds around the peace table to gain a workable treaty, finally, in despair, hoping that in time the spirit of hate and con­ quest would cool and the mistakes of the Versailles agreement would be corrected by his proposed league of nations. Hoover secs bitter national rivalries in Europe again threatening world peace. He believes America can hold up standards of decency free from force . He concludes: ‘The greatest immediate service that we can render is to join in economic co­ operation with other nations to relieve the economic pressures which are driving the world constantly to insta­ bility. A great part of these pres­ sures for war arc economic. The greatest healing force that could come to the world is prosperity. .There is a vast field for American action which is free from political entanglements. We should resume the conferences which were started under such good auspices by our country in 1932. But. far beyond that, we can hold the light of liberty aloft on this continent. That is the greatest service we can give to civ­ ilization."—Wayne (Neb.) Herald. •The Supreme In the Declaration of I—«■’ Independence (the great document of Americanism) our Creator is recog­ nized as the source of all authority, of the God-given rights of the indi­ vidual. Our forefathers established the authority of God and the suprem­ acy of God-given rights and liberties. As Americans we are independent yet always dependent on God! This country was not made on the theory that we should eat, drink, and be merryt for tomorrow we die. Its founders were more accustomed to prepare themselves w.wi fasting and prayer that they might meet the ser­ ious obligation to live through the morrow. The yhad feast day*, too. for they found a great happiness Ln their work. But these were time* of thanksgiving and praise. Instead of claiming that the world owed them a living they moved for­ ward and upward on toe principle that they owed the world the duty of pro­ viding for themselves. They sought to live in the things of the spirit They put first things first! They did not think much on the things that are temporal but strove mightily for the things that are eternal. If America is to endure, we shall have to walk in the light We can­ not ignore the experience of our fore­ fathers. Cold-hearted materialism cannot be success. We cannot be relieved of all hardships. We must accept the lot of finite human beings, and with deeper faith and higher courage press forward in the high calling of God thrbugh Christ Jesus. Every person desiring to be a good American should first of all become imbued with the Christian spirit Our country began with faith in God and can only continue to go forward with that same faith placed in the Mas­ ter of all the universe.

Small Michigan can take no pride Solace, in the recent state police re­ port tha tautomobile fatali­ ties in the state are increasing after a period of sharp decrease. Capt. Caesar J. Scavarda, who an­ nounced the increase, tempered his unpleasant statement with the asser­ tion that it is “in line with the naional trend." This of course, indi­ cates that Michigan is not setting a horrible example for the nation but that offers little solace when so many lives are being sacrificed, most of them needlessly, in state traffic. The figures show that 145 persons lost their lives tn Michigan automo­ bile accidents during July. It was the largest number of auto fatalities in any month this year, comparing with 127 killed in June. During the first six months of 1939 tholloas of life has been 726. In the correspond­ ing period last year 703 were killed. Significant in the state police offic­ ial's statement was the disclosure that carelessness at grade crossings was a large factor in the increase. And this type of accident is one of the easiest to avoid if automobile drivers use only the minimum of cau­ tion prescribed for safe driving. Carelessness by motorists accounts for the majority of traffic fatalities and until drivers make serious and continuing efforts there will be little change for the better in the casualty lists. The reduction in deaths last year proves that improvement can be made, but only through maintained vigilance. When Michigan can announce that it leads the nation in reducing high­ way deaths, then the state should stop in its safety campaign but only long enough to catch a second breath so that the campaign can be renewed with greater determination to better the existing record. — Battle Creek Enquirer News. Moral recovery was proclaimed July 30 to be a prerequisite to economic recovery in America by Dr. Frank Buchman, founder of the Ox­ ford movement and leader of the sec­ ond World Moral Rearmament As­ sembly, at Monterey, California . "We will never have economic re­ covery in America until we have a moral recovery,"’ Dr. Buchman told 1,500 delegates attending the closing session of the 10-day conference. "What America has got to learn," he said, “ia to have a group mind. Moral rearmament is that mind.” Dr. Buchman sa’d “It is not true’’ that religion and politics "do not mix.’" The Oxford Group and moral rearmament, he said, “ha* nothing to do with politic*, but stil| has every­ thing to do with politics because it is revolution of human nature. Don't trust politicians until they stand for moral rearmament,” he urged. Bishop Logan H.

We will demonstrate that at the 1940 Olympiad in Helsingfors.”' Gilbert Harris, of the Chase Na­ tional Bank. New York City: "Our soundest security today 1* investment in M. R. A.” Previously endorsement of the Moral Rearmament Assembly pro­ gram was received from 122 members of the Swiss Parliament and from chairmen of five principal political parties of Switzerland. "Democracy can only stand secure if the sound­ ness of her moral and spiritual arma­ ments is assured,” he massege said. Greeting also were received from Andre Mauro!*, French businessman and author, and Rabindranath Ta­ gore, Indian author and philosopher. Phillipe Mottu, Swiss delegate from Geneva said moral armament had lessened labor conflict* in his -coun­ try. Dr. Buchman predicted "that thing is going to happen in Amer­ ica.”’ Dr. Buchman, George Muff, member of the British House of Par­ liament, and Swiss, Irish and English delegates emphasized in talks the moral rearmament plan to have "100,000,000 people knowing and lis­ tening to God" by next Armistice Day. Mr. Muff said “fear anif lack of conviction" were hampering demo­ cratic nations and "Democracy can only compete with autocracy when the individual is alive to responsi­ bility." Loyalty. Loyalty is an admirable human trait; and to be called a loyal husband, a loyal friend, or a loyal citizen is considered high praise. But today, in a world where different organization*, different po­ litical and economic groups, as well a* a variety of ideologies, compete for human allegiance, we may well ponder to whom and to what we shall be loyal. In the name of loyalty, many per­ sona waste time and effort. They ex­ cuse their Indulgence in gambling, in intoxicating liquor in tobacco, and other vices, by citing an alleged need to be loyal to friends and compan­ ions. to social usage, and to certain social groups. In the name of loyal­ ty, men are not only prompted to honor various human concepts, but they are also urged to cheat and hate, and even to murder their fel­ low men. The resultant fruit of such erroneous loyalties is suffering. Without doubt, men owe loyalty and obedience to righteous law, and at all times should "render . . . unto Caesar the things which be Caesar's" (Luke 20:25). But it is erroneous to speak of subservience to the behests of sensuality, to greed and injustice, a* allied to loyalty. One definition of “loyalty” is “true to plighted faith and duty”; another, “bearing true allegiance to constituted authority." When Jesus was asked what was the great commandment in the law, he answered (Matthew 22:37), “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all they soul, and with all thy mind';” and (22:39), “Thou shalt love they neighbour as thyself.” Thus the great Teacher linked loyalty to God, to Love, w.th true loyalty—love—to our fellow men. He taught men how to be faithful to the aivine qualities of compassion, purity, meekness, truthfulness; how to be obedient to the law of divine Love, and thus to love all mankind. Mary Baker Eddy, the author of the Christian Science textbook, “Sci­ ence and Health with Key to the Scriptures,” was a noble exponent of true loyalty. She spent many years of consecrated effort after her dis­ covery of the Principle of Christ-heal­ ing in making it available to human­ ity. Referring to the life and teach। Ings of Jesus she writes (Science and Health, p 4), “Outward worship fa not of itself sufficient to express loy­ al and heartfelt gratitude, since he has said. “If ye love me, keep my commandments’." Mrs. Eddy's whole life was an expression of such grati­ tude; aqd her writing* have awaken­ ed thousand* to the joyful, grateful, loyal keeping of the commandment* of Jesus the Christ. Students of Christian Science are loyal to toe teachings of the Master; and this en­ ables them to be loyal to Mr*. Eddy's admonition (ibid., p. 183): "Divine Mind rightly demands man's entire obedience, affection, and strength No reservation is made for any lesser THUBMDAY, SEPT. H. IMg ♦ Lansing News Letter Plate Production Reaches Increased Volume. Manufacture of 1940 motor vehicle license plates for the state of Mich­ igan involves the use of approximate­ ly 1600 tons of 24 guage ateel and ar. estimated 13,500 gallons of paint. There will be made this year 2,­ 220.550 sets of plates for 1940. To deliver them to the car owners and drivers cf Michigan requires an equal number of envelopes and 45,000 car­ tons for shipment to the 173 branch offices of the Dept, of State. Plates for 1940 will show black let­ ters and numeral* on a silver alum­ inum background. On and after March 1. 1940, all trick license plates will be taboo in Michigan. License plates will be uni­ form for every car no matter by whom it is owned. License plates for 1940 will have two letters and four numbers desig­ nating the county in which they are issued. The decision to abandon this practice of issuing trick license plates was reached after a conference by Harry F. Kelly. Secretary of State, representatives of the Michigan Sher­ iffs' Dept, the Michigan State Po­ lice, and other police departments in Michigan. —Leo Gonzales, 49, from Texas, suffered a possible neck fracture when a car in which he was riding skidded in loose gravel and turned over in a ditch near the Irving Grange hall. Albert Olguin, 23, driver of the car, was being held on a charge of driving with an improper license. He had a beginner's permit, which would allow him to drive only if accompa­ nied by a licensed driver. None of the others had a driver’s license. Neither he nor Benny Da villa, 24, the second passenger was injured. Gon­ zales was in Pennock hospital with the possible neck fracture and severe scalp lacerations and suffering loss of blood. loyalty." As we endeavor to be obed­ ient to divine Mind, we come to un­ derstand the supremacy of spiritual law; we learn that loyalty to the eternal law of Mind, of Love, -brings release from the penalties imposed by false material law, and bestows the ability to meet all just obligation*. The teachings of Christian Science free men from bondage to mistaken and false loyalties. No longer should a fair word be used to hide conniv­ ance with injustice or enslavement to false appetite*. On page 180 of "The First Church of Christ. Scientist, and Miscellany." Mrs .Eddy writes: “In our struggles with sin and sinners, when we drop compliance with their desires, insist on what we know is right, and act accordingly, the dis­ guised or the self-satisfied mind, not ready to be uplifted, rebels, miscon­ strues our best motives, and calls them unkind. But thia is the cross, take it up,—it win* the crown; and in the spirit of our great Exemplar pray. ’Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do’.” As we replace sinful compliance to the dictates of mortal mind with loy­ alty to Truth and Love, the words of Shakespeare take on a significance not fully realized by the poet: ‘To thine own self be true. , And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man.” For Christian Science teaches that man's true self is spiritual, the per­ fect image or idea of his creator, di­ vine Mind, and that as we are loyal to this true selfhood, we are loyal to all that is perfect and eternal. Moreover .in being loyal to Mind, to Truth and Love, men become loyal to every human law that Ls good, that is based on the two great com­ mandments of the Mosaic law. Seek­ ing to know and to do the will of God, which is wholly wise, loving, and just, render available to each the wisdom and strength to meet all human needs and conditions. Loyalty to God, the Life and Principle of man, is an in­ herent and imperishable condition of the real man's being; and when such loyalty is manifested in human af­ fairs, peace, plenty, and harmony will eventuate for all mankind.— Christian Science Monitor.

The Golden Text (Psalms 73:26) is. “My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.” Among the Bible citations is this passage (I John 2:15, 17): "Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof, but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.’’’ Correlative passages to be read from the Christian Science textbook.

The Michigan tourist season now drawing to a close established a new one-day traffic recox-d for Mackinac Stra.ts ferries. The new record was 4.235 cars ear­ ned Sunday. Sept. 3. compared to th' prevtouely high total of 3.SSS vehides carried on the same day of last year. Both record loads were estabished on Labor Day vacation veriods. During the four-day period. Fridaythrough Monday, the ferries carried 13,350 vehicles and 28.137 passengers. The figures for the same days of 1937 • the highest year on record, were 13,­ 374 vehicles and 28,845 passengers. From January 1 through Aug. 31. ferries carried 193,230 vehicles and 340,994 passengers. These figures compare with 190,151 vehicles and 329,576 passengers in 1937 and 178,­ 909 vehicles and 311,146 passengers in 1938. Passenger and vehicle figures for the past week end follow: Friday. 2,416 vehicles. 4,338 passengers: Sat­ urday. 3,667 vehicles, 7,613 passen­ gers; Sunday. 4,236* vehicles, 9,522 passengers: and Monday, 3,021 vehi­ cles and 6,664 passengers. Blue Water International bridge authorities reported a 31 per cent in­ crease in traffic over the week end compared to traffic carried by ferries across St. Clair River in 1938. The bridge did its biggest business in his­ tory. Sunday, Sept 3. when it carried 4,208 vehicles. During the four days it carried 13,330 vehicles. Traffic ove rthe bridge from Oct. 10 through Sept 4, the period in which it has been operating, was up 50 per cent over the previous corres­ ponding period. The bridge carried 299.022 vehicles during the compara­ tive period in which the replaced fer­ ries carried 198,811 vehicles. The state highway department is facing the task of dismantling the tables it set for summer tourists in Michigan. With the end of the Labor Day week end, maintenance crews stood ready to pick up those tables used the least in northern Michigan counties. State Highway Commis­ sioner VanWagoner ordered tables still serving frequent guests be left out until cold weather. The commissioner said all of the old type, green tables would be re­ duced to lumber for other services and that they would be replaced with tables of standard, rustic design which have proved their popularity with tourists from 47 stales and Can- Miss Ora Miller from the Bellevue A can! from the Alfred Baxters, until he received the appointment of section, a senior in the Nashville W. enroute to Paterson, N.

APPLE COMMISSION ADOPTS TRADE MARK One of the first official acts of the newly created Michigan State Apple commission was to adopt an official trade mark, to be featured in all newspaper advertising and stere dis­ play material, and as rapidly as pos­ sible, incorporated in the labels of in­ dividual growers and packers. This trade mark consists of a sim­ plified outline map of the Lower Pen(to which commercial apple is almost entirely confined) divided horizontally into three broad bands, the top and bottom ones green the center one white. The top band contains the words "State of Michigan." the bottom one the word "Apples.’’ while the center white band may be used either for the grade de­ signation. or for the individual grow­ er’s or packer’s own trade mark. —George E. (Ed) McKishnie. 69. who died at Charlotte a few days ago, was a former well known resident of the Portland vicinity, having long re­ sided on a farm west of that village on what is now US-16, a mile north­ west of Kent’s corners. Deceased was a son of Archie McKishnie, and the family came from Canada. The elder McKishnie and his sons were credit­ ed with having been the first farmers in Michigan to raise beans on a large scale. They had done so in Canada and promptly set about to do the same here. Their efforts were suc­ cessful. and soon other farmers took up the crop and from that small be­ ginning production of beans in Mich­ igan has become an important item.

REID’S RESORT Thomapple Lake Maintenance crews, during the win­ ter lull in activities, will be put to work refurbishing the more than 3,­ 000 tables. They will be refinished and stored against the opening of the 1940 motorist season. The demand for and use of the roadside facilities nave become so great during recent months the .de­ partment is being asked for "reserva­ tions" by civic groups and families planning picnic reunions. The stock reply is that the department asks no "cover charge" for the service and must allow those reaching the parks first the opportunity of using facili­ ties. During recent months state police have been cooperating with maintem, unce crews in preventing the parks , from becoming overnight parking places for trailer tourists.

As the result of a study by the highway planning survey, the depart­ ment has an accurate guide to the amount, type and objectives of travel on Michigan roads. The information was gathered by Investigators who interviewed more than 31,000 drivers. Their findings will be interpreted in terms of highway needs. The average. Michigan driver trav­ els approximately 9.184 miles each year. The average country resident falls below this average with only about 8,000 miles each year. This is made up for, however, by the drivers in villages of 1,000 to 2,000 population who drive farther each year than any other group of motor­ ists They put about 10,632 miles on their speedometers.

The balance of the even­ ing was spent in talking over the work of the Kellogg Foundation for the year. Dr. Emory Morris of the Kellogg Foundation, Dr. Harkness, head of Barry county unit, and Dr. Stukey, head of the Eaton county Health unit, were present. The appearance of cold weather and a reported frost on Sunday night was received with relief by the people of the Lower Peninsula as the advent of cooler weather invariably marxs the end of the danger of a serious Polio epidemic.

Again is appearing the familiar shadow of 1914-1918 when Europe’s internal jealousies brewed a war boom in the United States. "War profits" were reflected in newspaper headlines. The Associated Press reported that Michigan's tool and die plants were rapidly going on a 24-hour daily pro­ duction schedule, as orders poured in from Washington for preparedness aircraft output needed to back up our neutrality stand. Residents of Lans­ ing were assured that the city’s indus­ trial system was in a better position to receive benefits from/war munition orders than in 1914-1918. To its upstate readers the conser­ vative Detroit Free Press carried a top headline on a front page: 'State farmers profit millions in war mar­ kets." At the capital city Governor Luren D. Dickinson diverted from his usual "sin-dancing-drinking" statements to declare that America's first duty was to keep out of war and he urged strict observance of President Roose­ velt’s neutrality proclamation as de­ fined by Congress. jx»e any revision of the present neu­ trality act to perriiit "cash and car­ ry" purchases of American munitions. Vandenberg is the State Republican committee's choice for the White House. Thomas Dewey, Owcsso-born pres­ idential possibility, made a plea, for peace during his visit to his old home a month ago. , At Washington was Attorney Gen­ eral Frank Murphy in a Dewey-like role of a relentless Sir Gallahad against corruption and crime. While he had not joined the chorus in de­ fense of the Presidents "cash and carry" plan, he was expected to do so. War profits and neutrality thus loomed prominently in the Michigan foreground of coming events. NUMBER 12. 200 Added In Year. OrcuUUoe Year, 10,055, Mostly Fiction.

THURSDAY- SEPTEMBER 21, 1939 “Because He Trusteth." Millions in a mobilized world daily seek the meaning of muddled events and humbly ask for peace .For these, Isaiah wrote this editorial: “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Thee: because he trusteth in Thee.” “Try If, in a great gathering of Faith." people, a musician struck four simultaneous notes on a piano, any musician in the house could tell me whether he had struck a chord or a discord. Is there any reasoning about it? I might have the best reasoner on earth present, and strike the most unpleasant discord on the piano, and he might not know the difference. Just as surely as there is a sense that knows when notes are harmon­ ious, when Jesus touches a soul He makes everything in it ring in as­ surance that He is the door and only His blood can cleanse, and that He gives life. All the philosophy or all the books in the world can never remove sin-consciousness from your heart. Jesus Christ has opened the way out of sin and into God. Come in through the door of faith through Christ and "Get in on" God. God’s purpose for your Mfe. "I have set befc^e thee an open door and no man can shut it." Rev. 3:8. —Today's Gospel Trust, by Irving G. Wahlstrom. An Old Chinese There is a Chinese Proverb. proverb that reads. Though the life of a man be short of a hundred years he gives himself as much anxiety as if he were to live a thousand. Isn't it true? Look at the hurry­ ing crowds of men and women. An­ xiety in their faces. Weight of the universe on their shoulders. Strain, fear, worry, rush! A Chinese student was riding in an auto with one of our western speed­ demons one day. The driver saw a train coming and said: “Unless we beat that train we will be delayed three minutes." He stepped on the gas and made it, with only seconds to spare’ When they were safely across the Oriental asked quietly: “Now, what ore you going to do with the three minutes saved?" How would you answer that? We struggle and sweat and worry and lose sleep about things that are not nearly as important as they seem. Our problems are magnified through anxiety until they look like seven-horned devils ready to pounce on us. Let s stop taking ourselves so ser­ iously. This planet will continue to spin long after we are gathered to our fathers. It pays to sit back and laugh at ourselves now’ and then. Those who work with merry hearts are the happy people. He is wise who maintains a calm attitude ex­ pectant of good. Let us accept life as a Great Adventure and march Joy­ ously forth to meet its problems with banners flying. The Happy Warriors get the most fun out of life.—The Friendly Adventurer. Freedom FlourUbe* Where Bible Is Bead. In these days when democracy is being forced to take stock of her re­ sources, lovers of human freedom will read with encouragement the releas­ es from the annual report of the Am­ erican Bible society, whose 123rd an­ nual meeting was held recently and whose sole purpose for a century and a quarter has been to make the Bible available to all men of all nations, however little they may have with which to purchase it Wherever this great book has been seriously read human freedom has flourished and democratic institutions have been bom. Earl Baldwin in an address in Toronto recently expressed his belief that Britain’s disposition to attempt the solution of the interna­ tional problems by honest delibera­ tion and conference roots back into generation upon generation of Bible reading by the people ' of England. Even in the face of the dictator's •diet the Bible out-sold "Mein KampT” in Germany last year by 299.CCO copies. Latin America for came from within — come from our own mistakes, and injure us alone. Our pledges of peace toward our neighbor* are stronger than ruler's promise or written treaty. We guar­ antee them by devoting our resour­ ces. greater than the reaoiyces of any other nation, to upbuilding the indus­ tries of peace. We strut no armed might that could be ours. We cause no nation in our half of the world to fear us. None doe* fear us, nor arm against us. In this land of ours, this America, we have Illuminated the true road to permanent peace. But that is not the sole moral sought herein to be drawn. Rather it is that the bless­ ings of liberty and equality and peace that have been herein, recounted are possessed nowhere in the same mea­ sure in Europe and Asia and wane or disappear as one nears or enters a land of dictatorship of whatever brand. Thia liberty, this equality, this peace, are imbedded in the Am­ erican form of government Wc shall ever retain them if foreign isms that would dig them out and destroy them are barred from our shores. If you cherish this liberty, this equality, this peace material and peace spiritualthen defend with all your might the American ideal of government. The above editorial, entitled "My Country, ’Tis of Thee," appearing in the Portland Oregonian Oct .2, 1038, was adjudged by the Pulitzer Award committee the most distinguished editorial to be published by an Amer­ ican newspaper in 1938. Its author is Ronald G. Callvert, associate editor of the Oregonian. ■ whose trade and friendship dictators are strenuously bidding has a hunger for the Scriptures that is apparently insatiable. China with all her appalling needs bought more complete Bibles from the society than ever in her history. Japan likewise increased her purchas­ es by about 10 per cent over the year before. Meanwhile the Scriptures moved into a dozen new languages in 1938, bringing the total number of tongues in which some part of the Scriptures has been translated to 1021. It is now conservatively esti­ mated that nine-tenths of the people of the world might hear some sub­ stantial part of the Scriptures read in their native tongue. No book in the world even faintly approaches this record. As long as this contin­ ues human freedom has a great ally. "Th® Print* Of Peace.” In this land of ours, this America, the man we choose as leader dons at no time uniform or insignia to denote his constitutional position as commander-in-chief of armed forces. No member of his cab­ inet. no civil subordinate, ever attires himself in garments significant of military power. In this land of ours, this America, the average citizen sees so little of the army that he has not learned to distinguish between a major and a lieutenant from the shoulder straps. When the Chief Executive addresses his fellow countrymen they gather about him within hand-clasp distance. Goose-stepping regiments are not pa­ raded before him. When he speaks to the civilian population it is not over rank upon rank of helmeted heads. In this land of ours, this America, there is no tramp of military boots to entertain the visiting statesman. There is no effort to affright him with display of mobile cannon or of facility for mass production of aer­ ial bombers. In this land of ours, this Ainerica, there is no fortification along the sev­ eral thousand miles of the northern border. In the great fresh water seas that partly separate it from another dominion no naval craft plies the wat­ ers. Along its southern border there are no forts, no show of martial strength. In this land of ours, this America, no youth is conscripted to labor on devices of defense; military training he may take or leave at option. There is no armed force consistent with a policy of aggression, the navy is built against no menace from the Western Hemisphere, but wholly for defense against that which may threaten from Europe or Asia. In this land of ours, this America, one-third of the population is foreign born, or native born of foreign or mixed parentage. Our more numerous "minorities” come from 14 nations. The native bom. whatever his des­ cent, has all political and other rights possessed by him who traces his an­ cestry to the founding fathers. The foreign’ born of races that are assim­ ilable are admitted to all these privi­ leges if they want them. We have "minorities" but no minority prob­ lem. In this land of ours, this America, the common citizen may criticize without restraint, the policies of his government or the alms of the Chef Executive. He may vote as his judg­ ment or his conscience advises and not as a ’ruler dictates. In this land of ours, this America, our songs are dedicated to love and romance, the blue of the night, sails in the sunset, and not to might or to a martyrdom to political cause. Our national anthem has martial words; difficult air. But if you want to hear the organ roll give the people its companion—"America . . . of Thee I sing.” In lighter patriotism we are nationally cosmopolitan. Unitedly we sing of Dixie or of Iowa, where the tai! corn grows, of springtime in the Rockies or of California, here I come. In tills land of ours, this America, there Is not a bomb-proof shelter, and a gas mask is a curiosity. It is not needed that we teach our children where to run when death hawks dar­ ken the sky. In this land of ours, this America, our troubles present or prospective “My Country. Ti* Of Thee." LANE USAGE. In the past, driving rules have been designed for the conventional twolane highway. It was not until the Michigan Traffic Control Zones proved successful that regulation* were *et up for driving on the wider highway*. The state's new traffic law lists these regulations in detail. They arc sum­ marized in the brief’ but valuable rule: If there is room to the right drive to right. Vehicles on highways of three or more lanes shall drive entirely within the extreme right-hand lane except when overtaking and passing. It is unlawful to straddle lane lines. The middle lane on three-lane high­ ways and the second lane on fouflane highways shall be used for over­ taking and passing only. t It is unlawful to drive into the far left lane of a three-lane highway or cross the center line on four-lane highways. If these rules are observed, headon crashes will be eliminated and side-swipes will be reduced. Rules similar to these have been in force on US-10 south of Saginaw, US-33 between Saginaw and Bay City, US-24 in Monroe county, and on US-12 in Berrien county. Mich­ igan State Police records show that they have saved countless lives. Simply stated, the rule provides that traffic keep well over to the right—and don’t cross the yellow line. Cows Number 923,000. The number may not be accurate now, but estimates on January 1 of this year credited Michigan farmers with ownership of 923,000 dairy cows.

The teachings of Christ Jesus re­ found. Christian Science teaches that God vealed to mankind the kingdom of God, of Love: they unfolded the king­ and His ideas are the only realities. It uncovers the error of belief in evil dom of spiritual thinking, wherein one can exert God-given dominion ov­ as real. Spiritual truths arc revealed through the understanding that God er every belief in sin, disease, inhar­ mony, death. Through his spiritual is the only creator, and that man and understanding, his love and wisdom, the universe are wholly spiritual. Jesus proved to mankind that God, Thus, when the allness of God, good, the Father, is ever present to meet is understood, the belief in evil is cast every human need . He demonstrated out of our consciousness, is refused, the truth that the only man— the discredited, destroyed. In the book of Revelation, John spiritual man—is God’s perfect child, His idea.

The teachings of Chris­ Monitor. tian Science enable us to obey Christ Jesus’ command “Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” Fear, disease .discontent, suspicion, agitation appear Decause of material thinking, because of an untrue mater­ ial sense of existence. The way to overcome the false thoughts which produce strife, turmoil, unrest, is to understand that man is today and forever the image and likeness of God, Love. As one recogn zes his brother as God's child ,one prepares his thinking for the reception of that peace which comes through the un­ derstanding of the life and teachings of Christ Jesus. God's harmonious government of His perfect creation is forever estab­ lished. I is a profitable mental ac­ tivity to realize the omnipotence, om­ niscience, omnipresence of God, Truth. The enlightened understanding that God, Love, Mind, is forever governing man and the universe assuredly opens the way for an enlightened, true sense of peace, prosperity, health, brotherly love, Justice. To realize the truth that home, of­ fice, business, government are under the eternal law of Love brings peace and security. It is one's own think­ ing that must be watched and guard­ ed.

Mrs. Coleman was walking eastward across the New York Central tracks in East Michigan at Elm about 5 p. m.. on her way to purchase groceries. Pre­ occupied with reading her grocery list, she dio not notice the approach of the westbound freight until it was within a few feet of her. She jumped on one of the small running boards near the cowcatcher of the engine, and clung to it until the train stop­ ped. The train was moving very slowly, but railroad men said Mrs. Coleman undoubtedly would have been killed had she not jumped on the engine.

OIL WELL BEING DRILLED ON BERNICE WILCOX FARM CHURCH NOTES Taking Of Game Bird*, Seaaoo Of Which Opens Soon, Sh rwn Little Change From Last Year. Few changes in regulations cover­ ing the taking of waterfowl and mi­ gratory upland game birds during the approaching season are announced by the Michigan department of conser­ vation. Federal seasons, . shooting hours and means by which waterfowl and upland game birds may be taken are practically identical with the 1938 regulations except that bow and ar­ row may be used this year. Only changes of importance are the raising of the possession limit on woodcock from four to eight and the lowering of the daily bag and posses­ sion limits on geese. This season th< daily bag will be four and the posses­ sion limit eight A dally bag of five geese, with 10 in possession, was al­ lowed in 1938. Daily bag limits on rails, galllnules and snipe has been increased from 10 to 15 with 15 in possession. Daily allowed bag of woodcock is four. Daily bag limit on coots has been in­ creased from 10 to 25 per day on ad­ vice of the U. S. Biological Survey. An enormous increase in the species is reported. The woodcock season has been ad­ justed to coincide as nearly as possi­ ble with the upland bird season in both the upper and lower peninsulas and the long season allowed in other years on snipe, rails and galllnules has been shortened to coincide with the waterfowl season. The woodcock season in the upper peninsula will be from Oct 1 to 20. inclusive, and in the lower peninsula the dates are OcL 15 to 31, inclusive. Other seasons, all dates Inclusive, are. Ducks, geese, brant, coot and jacksnipe— Oct. 1 to Nov. 14; rails and galllnules (except coot)—OcL 1 to Nov. 14. Hours of legal shooting for ducks, geese, brant and coot are 7 a. m. to 4 p. m. and for jacksnipe, rails and galllnules (except coot) and woodcock are 7 a. m. to sunset. All times are eastern standard. Bag limit for ducks is 10. with 20 as the possession limit, provided that when any daily limit includes canvas­ back, redhead, bafflehead and ruddy ducks, not more than three of any one of these species nor more than three in the aggregate may be taken, and the possession limits of these parti­ cular ducks are not more than six of ' any one kind or six in the aggregate.

In reality there tality.” We learn from the Scrip­ tures that God created all. ' and. behold, it was .very good." I Genesis 1.31. The universe and the inhabi­ tants thereof, then, are perfect, like their -creator, and God’s law of peace and harmony reigns supreme. This is spiritual fact. The mist or Adam dream, of which we read in the second chapter of Genesis, presents11.50 the falsity that man is mortal and material, created out of dust and governed by various so-called powers, claiming to be both good and evil. From this false pre­ mise arise the claims of misunder­ standing, rivalry, greed, strife,, sick­ ness, chaos, and war. This-false pre­ mise implies also than man can be the football of chance and change, which is of course a lie. Christian Science teaches that an understanding of God is the way of salvation , from sickness, sin. dis­ cord, death. God, the divine Princi­ ple of man, perpetuates man as His reflection. It is not true that the child of God is both good and evil, peaceful and discordant, loving and hatefuL These are but false beliefs of mortals, which are dispelled when we realize that man is what the Scriptures declare him to be, the image of his creator. Our freedom comes, then, as we recognize and acknowledge our true relationship to the Father, gratefully perceiving that “now are we the sons of God" (I John 3.2)—now, not sometime in a vague future, in a far-away place, but here and now. As children of God we dwell in unity and peace. All will agree that peace is a qual­ ity of divine Mind. Then it logically follows that peace is inherent in man, the representatives of God. Peace cannot be lessened or destroyed, for It is now and forever established. And Love is awakening human con­ sciousness to this great spiritual fact. In the proportion that they under­ stand the truth about God and man, men learn to trust in God more fully, and fear, suspicion, selfishness, and hatred correspondingly decrease. This Christlike understanding is expressed in the love which knows no destruc­ tive criticism, no greed, no resent­ ment; in the joy which knows no gloom; in the gratitude which knows no fear. As the vision of spiritual good is cherished in individual con­ sciousness, it serves as a beacon light to brighten oui pathway in our ascent above mortal, material sense WHEATIES 9c pkg.

M. C. A. items f ^'SNAPSHOT OIILIk I STORY TELLING It's the story-telling picture that carries real human Interest appeal. A LMOST all of us have had the experience of calling on friends who persist in getting out their col­ lection of snapshots and parading them before the eyes of their de­ fenseless guests. I Now please bear in mind that I narbor no thoughts of this practice as being a breach of social etiquette. On the contrary, I am for it But— there are many kinds and classes of snapshots. There are, for instance, the snapshots that are very good as far as exposure, sharpness and com­ position are concerned but with pracI tically no human interest appeal. We |can class these as record pictures. I Haw yon ever heard of atory-teHInp snapshots? Ml wager that many of you haven’t For that reason this week's Snapshot Guild will be de­ voted to story-telling pictures. From the cradle to the grave we hear stories — and like them. All through our lives we retain our In­ terest In story-illustrations. It is this appeal that takes us to the movies and ciww u* to look through the pages of daily newspapers and mag­ azines for pictures that tell stories of human activities. ' Whet, it comes to taking snapget about atory-te'uing subjects. They pick up their cameras and just shoot. There la a better way to take pictures. There Is a vast difference between a close-up view of a person and a story-telling picture. A close-up — whether head-and-shoulder, threequarters or full length—is more or lew a record picture to show the im­ age of the person photographed, butl it does not tell a story. You may take I a picture of Peggy standing looking st the camera. A fine picture, no doubt, bearing all th® earmarks of good photography properly exposed and a good example of composition, but still a record-type snapshot. Let Peggy be pictured raking thsi leaves and you have a story-telling human interest snapshot Today as you're glancing through the news­ paper, notice for yourself whether record pictures of people looking at the camera or story-telling pictures of people doing things Interest, and please you more. Before taking a picture give it a little thought and if ft is to be a snapshot of an Individual, haw him i doing something and not staring at ? the camera, simulating a victim of amnesia. I don't want to seem to lecture but I do want to Impress upon you the ( Importance of giving serious thourht to your picture taking. If ; vi will! keep this story-telling idea inmost I In your mind when you take yournext pictures. I am sure they will be' more Interesting to yen and yr— friends.

County supervisors are in session. During the last gubemator-al cam­ paign supervisors urged defeat of the 1937 welfare act They insisted that a centralized system of providing re­ lief to jobless and unemployables was fodder for a highly trained social worker, yet was a luxury that Mich­ igan could not afford. Local control would lower costs, they pleaded. Many voter agreed. The 1937 welfare act was defeated, and the problem was thrown into the laps of 1939 legislators. A new law was enacted whereby handling of relief was returned to counties. The state was pledged to match local payments, dollar for dol­ lar. A three-inember board was to be set up in each county, two mem­ bers of which were to be named by the supervisors and the third man to be appointed by the state social wel­ fare commission. This sounds simple, but complica­ tions were numerous. Big Business. Relief has become "big business" in America today. Expenditures for the poor once were nominal. The word "poor,’" usually associated with "char.ty," vanished upon the advent of the Great Depression which swallowed millions of workers into idleness. It became "unemployed." Millions of dolars were poured out from WashingtonMo sustain life and to maintain morale on a basis of American de­ cency. State capitals were called up­ on for legislative appropriations. To prevent possible political mis­ use of relief millions, the social worker was glorified in a big way. Relief applicants had to be certified as to need, and that meant careful scrutiny by trained Investigators. Salaries increased as responsibilities grew; payrolls mounted as more mil­ lions were spent; the entire adminis­ trative overhead sprung up like a mushroom. . The old relief system, keyed to a limited need, was put into total eclipse by a highly centralized sys­ tem focused on Washington and Lan­ sing. During the 1938-39 fiscal year the state spent approximately 115,000,000 for dirpet relief alone. This was a lot of maney. A deficit in the state treasury was one result Economy. The 1939 legislature, heeding de­ mands for economy and hoping that local control for relief would aid in realizing this objective, passed a law that gives the county supervsors the whip hand with certain limitations. First, the act attached a string to the "home rule" proviso by requir­ ing counties to pay the cost of local administration—an expense which the centralized system (or state control at Lansing* had previously borne. Second, more administrative res­ ponsibility meant more financial res­ ponsibility. That called for raising the "ante” in some counties which had coasted along, letting the state carry most of their load. Third, a practical limitation was imposed by an arbitrary slicing of the fiscal relief appropriation (1939-40) from 315,000.000 to 33,750.000 .or a reduction of nearly one-half. True .legislators prayed that busi­ ness would pick up, that the new plan would effect n»w economies, and that cotinties would absorb the bal­ ance of the need. The present state social welfare commission, headed by Walter F. Gj-ies of Ishpeming, has turned a deaf ear to occasional cries for a special session of the legisla­ ture. ' Even Mel McPherson, unoffi­ cial state spokesman for the super­ visors, has admonished counties to prepare to carry their part of the load. Having asked for home rule, supervisors were told to shoulder the new responsibilities cheerf’dly. This they are doing for the most part, al­ though grumbling profusely and loud­ ly against Washington's hard-boiled attitude that spending of social secur­ ity money (unemployment compensa­ tion. old age assistance, etc.) must be done only by persons hired under fed­ eral civil service standards. Matching Plan Is Out. The legislative intent, as expressed in the law, was that the stat- should match relief dollars of counties. It was thought at the time to be insur­ ance that counties would do their part In a decentralized program. However, just the unexpected happened. In Wayne county, for ex­ ample, the 50-50 plan was hailed with delight Wayne county had been do­ ing more than a good many upstate counties. With only 38.750,000 on hand to spend, state officials realized the matching plan would quickly ex­ haust their 12-month appropriation. This part of the law has been openly ignored, and probably will not be en­ forced by the present commission. A hitch also developed between the supervisors who wished to control the spending of all relief funds and the social security adminlstraton at Washington which adhered strictly to a policy of hiring skilled, trained workers on a non-partisan, civil ser­ vice basis; thus minimizing any chance of political mishandling of federal or state funds. Supervisors proposed, in some coun­ ties. to engage a single director whom they would hold responsible for ad­ ministration of all welfare funds—di­ rect relief by the state and county governments unemployment compen­ sation and old age pensions jointly by state and federal governments, and so on. Washington was unyielding to sug­ gestions for an Integrated system un­ less it was established according to civil service requirements. And there hangs another interest­ ing hitch in the Michigan welfare sit­ uation today. NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, OCT. 12, 1939 Mrs. Charles Cheever, 60, Kalamo, Killed • Eight Pages • LOOK FOR THAT BAND! NUMBER 15. Nashville Wins League Championship Mr. Cheever Badly Hurt In Same Two-Car Collision Near Whitehall Friday. Baseball Team Takes Eaton League Hoaon With 3-2 Victor) Over Vermontville. Mrs. Charles Cheever, 60, living on the old Hartwell farm on M-79, Kal­ amo, was fatally injured, Mr. Cheev­ er received a brain concussion and shock, and others in the same car were Injured in a two-car collision a mile south of Whitehall on US-31. Mr. and Mrs. Cheever, parents of Mrs. P. C. Larsen and Mrs. Harold Woodard, were on a visit to relatives at Shelby, their home previous to their coming to Kalamo two years ago. Mr. Cheever was taken to Hackley hospital, Muskegon, and later to Shelby. Mrs. Ivan Goodruth of Hart, a daughter, was driving the car, and she and Mrs. Cecil Cheever were In­ jured, but not seriously. The second car was said to have been driven by Henry B. McKey of R. 1, Montague, and he received cuts and bruises. Mrs. Charles Cheever was born in Nebraska and lived there and in Wis­ consin until 22 years ago when she moved to Shelby. Two years ago the family moved to the farm southeast of Nashville in Eaton county. She was active in the Adventist church. She is survived by the busband; four daughters, Mrs. Goodenrath, Mrs. P. C. Larsen and Mrs. Harold Woodard of Nashville and Mrs. Dan Hartle of Illinois; four sons, Everett of Sulphur Springs, Ind., Francis of Muskegon and Cecil and Stanley of Shelby: her mother, Mrs. Francis Lowrey of Ewing, Neb.; a sister. Mrs. Bertha Stanbaugh of Ewing. Neb. and nine grandchildren. Mr. and Mrs. Larsen and Mr. and Mrs. Harold Woodard were summon­ ed by the other relatives, and others attending the funeral services Mon­ day were Mr. and Mrs. John Wood-* ard, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Griffin, and Mrs. Don Renick. The play-off for the championship of the Eaton baseball league was he:d at River-side Park Sunday afternoon, and the Nashville team, leaders in the regular schedule, cinched the honors by trouncing Vermontville 3 to 2, in as Interesting a game as has been played on the local diamond in years. Eagle and Vermontville, tied for second place, were scheduled to play at 12.30, Nashville to meet the win­ ners, but the Eagle team failed to show up for their chance at the title. Vermontville started the scoring in the third inning when Satterlee drew a pass and finished the circuit on Kilpatrick’s double. In the fifth Gardner started off with a short fly to right which was good for two bases when the wind carried it out of the reach of the fielder. He tal­ lied on Kilpatrick's second hit. Rawson followed with a single, but was caught trying to pilfer second. Dutch Gage, who went the route for Nashville, had the situation w«U in hand for the balance of the game, limiting the visitors to seven scatter­ ed safeties and fanning 8. - _ Larry' Gardner, knuckle ball twirler drafted by Vermontville for the occasion was very effective in the fore part of the game, only 18 batters fac­ ing him in the first six innings, but he ran into plenty of trouble later. Diamante opened the 7th with a sin­ gle, advanced to second on Varney’s sacrifice and counted on Hecker's sin­ gle. Mason then connected safely to score Hecker. The winning tally was produced tn the ninth on succes­ sive singles by Yarger, Mason and Gage.

See all the loveliness there is to see; Hear all the harmony there is to hear; Look for the gladness everywhere so free; Open your heart to every blessing near; Thrill to the fact that life is wonder­ ful; Think all the worth-while thoughts Truth has to give; Realize that the world is beautiful— That is what makes it worth the while to live! Grow every good the soil of life will yield; Gather each blossom growing by the way; Harvest the worth from every sunny field And all the values from each passing day; Garner life's good, for it is bountiful; Profit from all each moment has to give; Sowing and reaping, ever dutiful— That is what makes it worth the while to live. — Charles Edwin Flynn. ------ o-----Always Agriculture, industry Independent, and labor are being made over these days. That was the message brought by Frank W. Pe<?k( president of the Federal Land Bank of St. Paul, Mmn.f to more than 5,000 rural folks assembled at Michigan State college. In that make-over the banker warn­ ed of perils. He said there was danger in fos­ tering the spirit of Independence. He told of being approached recently by five elderly men who wanted the Land Bank to take their farms in payment of loans. They wanted to get rid of their property, so they could retire on pensions. Such an at­ titude, he said, could not be found among farmers in former years. •■Farmers.” said Peck, “don't want anybody to guarantee them security. They want to earn their security." At that the crowd of farmers and their wives applauded heartily. The sentiment repealed at M. S. C- is an accurate gauge of the attitude of the entire rural population of the state. —Detroit News. ------ o-----Inspiration From To be successful, A Stonecutter. one of the first things a salesman must do is to dispel gloom.

Five Hunting The opening of the Hints. duck hunting season has brought a poster from the National Safety Council which offers the following five sug­ gestions to hunters: 1. Never carry a loaded gun in an automobile, wagon or other vehicle. Keep it in its case until you start hunting. 2. Never pull a gun through a fence. Carrry it over with you. Keep the muzzle pointed aVay from your­ self and others. 3. Never lay a loaded gun down in a boat. Never lift a gun from a boat by the barrel. 4. Before shooting st game make sure that no house, barn or other buildtag is in the line of fire. 5. Don’t set a loaded gun against a tree or a fence or leave it lying on the ground. Even a playful dog might cause it to be discharged. "Everybody knows that,” the aver­ age reader will say. One would think so but the figures indicate other­ wise. The Safety Council reports that 1,400 deaths a year result from hunting accidents. Many could be avoided. Every hunter should know these simple rules and should be able to repeat them in substance from mem­ ory before a license is issued to him. More, he should put them Into prac­ tice on penalty of having his license revoked. "And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the plain of Jor­ dan, that it was well watered every­ where—os the garden of the Lord. Then Lot chose him all the plain of Jordon—and they separated them­ selves the one from the other." Gen. 13:10-11. The soul that has taken God as Its portion can afford to be generous! The older man (in this scripture les­ son), Abraham, might well have claimed- first choice, leaving the rest to Lot, but he was quite content to waive his rights, since his •Almighty­ Friend had fixed the place which he was destined to receive for his in­ heritance. Let Lot choose as he might, he could not obtain an inch of the land which God had included in His Divine purpose for His faithful and obedient servant, Abraham. "Wait on the Lord, and keep His way, and He shall exalt thee to in­ herit the land.” It was in quiet confidence that the Patriarch stood beside his kinsman and watched hhn claim the fullest ad­ vantage of his uncle's unexpected of­ fer. Lot chose for himself the plain of Sodom, which was well watered everywhere and a very lovely land. Abraham agreed to the choice with calmness. But Abraham had God as the portion of his inheritance, yea, he had a goodly heritage. Then the Separation having taken place God called his servant. Abrahem, back to the hill top, and gave him ALL the land h» a covenant for­ ever ,and Dade him pass whither he wished over the soil, for it was all his own. (Gen. 13:14-17). Let God choose for YOU! Espe­ cially at the beginning of life, as you stand on its threshold and view the land, dare to follow <he promptings of His inner voice. God's program was to send His Son, Jesus Christ, in due time. Christ Is theSaviour! His call still comes ringing down the ages. “Follow Me. Lo, I am with you all the days." Will you be a follower of Christ and claim Him this day as your Saviour?—Today's Gospel Truth by Irving G. Wahlstrom. "The Supreme Choice.” Several hundred persons met the other day in Wil­ liamston, Massachusetts, in what was known as the Institute of Human Relations. The group was composed of prominent Protestants, Roman Catholics and Jews. They de­ cried the absence of the application of religion to human life and the fact it was not taught in all schools as well as controversial social and political questions. Modern methods, they said, had a tendency to promote a be­ lief that rerliglous teachings are not applicable to human affairs. Roger Babson and scores of econ­ omists state and restate that the world will never come out of its pres­ ent deplorable condition until there is a return to religion. Those who read his article in various newspapers re­ cently will recall his statement: 'On­ ly a spiritual revival can ever haul the world out of the abyss in to which It is sinking rapidly today.” The opposites to the teachings of Christianity are responsible for the chaos in Europe today. Not only was there a drifting away from it, but Christianity was attacked from all sides. In Germany profession of Christianity was a hindrance in get­ ting a job. A high official said the sight of Christ upon the cross was shameful because it portrayed sub­ mission and that was not the timber of which German forefathers were Need Of Religion. made. Christ in one instance was re­ ferred tn publicly as “that swine." Thia, of course, was a drive to eliminate Christianity from the minds of the people to further the ends of the leaders. It Is e’.-'.dent a person who makes an application cf Chris­ tianity can hardly do the things which’ are being done. This still la a Christla nnation. Bells ring from coast to coast each Sunday calling the faithful to wor­ ship. However, the discussion at the Institute of Human Relations is to be considered. Under the present trend we must ever be watchful that there is no slipping away. Rather every­ day application , of Christianity should be fostered .and promoted that we, as a nation, do not plunge into the pits which have received other peoples and from which only a bloody war gives hopes of rescue. America should be alert!—Carmi Ill.) Tribune. Power. It is recorded in the twenti­ eth chapter of n Chronicles that once, when a great multitude came against Judah, the people '-gathered themselves together, to ask help of the Lord." The “Spirit of the Lord in the midst of the congrega­ tion” came upon Jahaziel, and .he said, "Thus saith the Lord unto you. Be not afraid nor dismayed by rea­ son of this great multitude; for the battle is pot your's, but God's," and, “Ye shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of the Lord." On the next day, early in the jnorning, Jehosophat .the king “ap­ pointed stagers unto the Lord, and that should praise the beauty of holi­ ness" (H Chronicles 20:21); and they had no need to engage in battle, for as they trusted in God the enemy be­ came confused and demoralized, and was seif-destroyed. What was the power that brought utter defeat to that great tjpst? In "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" Mary Baker Eddy writes (p. 131), "The central fact of the Bi­ ble is the superiority of spiritual over physical power.’ Jehosophat had acknowledged the supreme power of God in these words (II Chronicles 20:6): “O Lord God of our fathers, art not thou God in heaven ? . . .. and in thine hand is there not power and might, so that none is able to with­ stand thee?" And all the people had worshipped God. Their faith and trust in Him was not in vain, for by the power of Spirit they were deliv­ ered from the attack of evil; and they returned to Jerusalem with great joy. The same infinite power of God, Spirit, which saved the men of Judah when they were obedient and put their trust in His, is a divine reality here and now, and it is available to­ day to all men everywhere. It is on­ ly necessary to understand how to utilize this limitless power of Spirit, divine Mind, through spritually right thnking in order to be saved from any and every afflictive or destructive miscalled force or power. It is not God's will or purpose that men should suffer or be destroyed or enslaved by false systems of government. Spiritual understanding is fully cap­ able of defeating error now, just as faith in God was victorious over its false claims in Bible times. The Christian Silence textbook. Science and Health, and other works by the same author, set forth clearly how this supremely important under­ standing of the availability of the power of Spirit is to be gained. On page 7 of "Unify of Good" Mrs. Eddy has written. "An acknowledgment of the perfection of the infinite unseen confers a power nothing else can." And in her Message to The Mother Church for 1902 she declares (pp. 8, 9), "Spiritual love makes man con­ scious that God is his Father, and the consciousness of God as Love gives man power with untold further­ ance." . A fundamental requirement for the demonstration of the supreme power of the one God in human affairs, whether individual, national or in­ ternational. is right motives. The leaders of the multitude which came against Judah ,the narrative implies,, had evil motives—the intent to at­ tack, rob, and enslave the Judean na­ tion. This evil intent entirely cut them off from the help of God, divine Love, and made their armies vulner­ able to fear, which contributed great­ ly to their undoing. The motives of the children of Judah were to trust God and to defend themselves against suggestion. They did not run away from error, but marched toward the r enemies, strong in the confidence that God was a present help. Another imperative necessity in orde rto merit and enjoy tne ever-pres­ ent protective power of God, who is infinite and eternal, is to reflect Love universally and impartially. That men may do this they must first learn that neither good nor evil is personal. They must realize, to some extent at least, that there is but one infinite good, even God and that the real man expresses or manifests good as God's reflection. They must also perceive that evil Is no part of God's man. al- THURSDAY, OCT.

Item, SNAPSHOT CUIL though men may appear to identify themselves with it and become its tools. To become aware of the fact that evil is not real, and that it has noth­ ing to do with genuine individuality, is to understand that sin is the illus­ ive belief that existence is material. One who discerns this fact sees clear­ ly that greed selfishness .hatred—all sensuality — are to be denied and wholly condemned as false belief; and that true identity is not subject to any condemnation whatsoever. He learns to love the man who is made ta the image of Spirit with a whole­ hearted devotion, and to be tender forgiving and compassionate toward those mortals who seem to think ev­ illy and act cruelly toward their fel­ low men . He can say with the Mas­ ter (Luke 23:34), "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.” And by his spiritual under­ standing and compassionate love he is helping to life the whole world out of its dream of existence as material, with its wars and discord, into the everlasting harmony of spiritual real­ ity.—Christian Science Monitor.

It’s one of the old beliefs ta amateur photography that has been handed down from year to year to •very new snapshooter. While this is good advice for the beginner it is not necessary to for­ ever abide by this rule. Those of us who like to try breaking such rules have found that most of the work of which we are proud has been pro­ duced under other lightings. The im­ portant thing to remember Is that you must never stand so that sun­ light will strike into the lens. The lighting of the subject has much to do with securing that qual­ ity sometimes called “atmosphere" in a picture. There are a number of ways ta which a photograph may be given apparent depth or “third di­ mension.” Taking the picture when there are long shadows, getting a reflection ta the foreground, using strong Bidelighting or back-lighting, and timing the exposure just right so that* the detail of objects ta Shadow Is not blocked out, are pre­ cautions that contribute to the de­ sired effect Let us consider each of these separately. Shadows, thrown ta long drawnout splotches zeroes walls and walks, more than anything else make one feel that be is “looking into" a picture Instead of "looking on” a flat piece of paper carrying the images of the objects recorded. tween it and the rest of the picture. When a body of water can be in­ cluded as a part of the foreground, then there are m onderfu! opportuni­ ties for adding depth. The reflection will carry one's attention back and away from the foreground—into tho picture—and lead to the principal point of composition. Reflections often serve as an avenue to lead back from the foreground of a set­ ting. The only precaution necessary when dealing with a water fore­ ground in strong sunlight Is to watch that a swell or wave does not throw reflected light sparkles upon the lens, aa that may fog the picture. Side-lighting, where the source of Illumination comes from the side of the object or scene, and back-light­ ing, where the light comes from the rear, aro not difficult to handle if the lens 18 protected from the light coming toward it. Shade the lens with the hand, or stand In the pro­ tecting shadow of a tree to make the exposure.

THURSDAY, OCT. 12, 1989 Civil War Diaries Of George Brown Capted From OrigtoMa By GroatGrawfcm, Richard Graham, NaahvllM. When we are the march, we draw cur rations of crackers, meat (shoul­ ders or sidepork), sugar, coffee—all we get on the march. Monday, Oct. 27, we passed through the sma’J town of Dogwalks Chapman; travel­ ed 10 miles; the roads were rough and hilly. Saturday, the 28th, we passed through Bloomfield; traveled 15 miles. Wednesday, Oct. 29, start­ ed on the march at 8 a. m., encamp­ ed 1-2 mile west of Bardstown, on a branch of Duck creek, which was very acceptable to us as the country is very dry this season. There is but little water to be got on the road. Bardstown is situated on a hill. It is- the ruins of a wealthy place; some of the houses have been torn down so they would not fall into the hands of the Federals. The men are mostly in the South­ ern army. There is nothing left but a few Federal soldiers, and some sick in the hospitals. There are some fine houses, but more than half are de­ serted. Thursday, Oct 30, started at 8, marched over rough roads prin­ cipally through timber; stopped 1-2 hour for dinner; went into camp at 3 p. m., one mile south of New Haven on Rawling creek. Like Bardstown, is is almost deserted by the inhabi­ tants. Friday, Oct 31, left camp at 8; Co. D advance guard. We traveled nine miles in a deep ravine with bluffs 400 ft high in places. At 9:30 a. m. we came to a level spot on the right of the ravine, about 10 acres between the hills—it was the birth­ place of Abraham Lincoln. The house has been pulled down. INSURANCE I Fire — Wind — Auto Liability, all kinds. George Hubert Wilson Phone 2836 RHEUMATIC PAIN RELIEVED ■ Stopped at 1 p. m. tor dinner The roads dry and dusty. But little wat er, and poor at that. At 3, we passed throurh the town of HeginevlUe. and traveled till aunart. encamped on Rolling creek; marched 18 miles. Saturday, Nov. 1st, left camp, and our regiment in advance of our brig­ ade; Co. H rear guard; Brig. Gen. Ward in command. We crossed the Louisville A Nashvile rairoad at 11 o’clock—a train of soldiers , passed at that time on its way to Bowling Green. Went Into camp at 2:30 on Bacon creek, near the station; march­ ed 12 miles. Sunday, Noy. 2, left camp at 8:30, and followed the rail­ road tlU noon. Very dusty, and no water. Stopped one hour for dinner at Mumfordsville. Brig. Gen. Roscrans takes com­ mand of this division. Today at one o’clock we crossed Green river. The bridge is just rebuilt. The train crossed yesterday for the first time. The bridge is 130 ft. high and 1500 ft long—it is strongly guarded. 500 Germans held the field three hours against 3000 rebs. and drove them from the field. We marched till sun­ set and camped 1-4 mile from Horse­ shoe Cave; marched 16 miles. Mon­ day, Nov. 3rd, left samp at 7:30 a. m. The cave is 250 ft below ground; it is 25 ft high in the main cave. There are two branches. It is hilly, damp, and slippery. The left branch the water is 4 ft deep; the right is said to be three miles in extent There is a fine spring in the main cave; flows about 200 ft and disappears. (To be continued.) STYLE SHOW HELD IN BARKY COUNTY The return of the bustle was announced to 208 Barrry county women at four fall style trend meetings con­ ducted in Dowling, Middleville, Coats Grove and Delton during the past week. The meetings given by Maijorie ■ Eastman, clothing specialist from M. ■ S. C, and Mary E. Bullis, home ex­ tension agent, were held to give the < women help in selecting new clothes j and bringing their wardrobes up-todate. Back interest in dresses, the most talked of fashion, is copied from the bustles and draped skirts of the 1880's, Miss Eastman said. Bows, peplums, gored or shirred skirt backs, ruffles or apron effects are the means used to emphasize back interest, ac­ cording to Miss Bullis . Other points to look for in fall style trends are slightly squared shoulders fitted waist lines, short I skirts with some fullnes. Sleeves are shown long, short or in the new bracelet length. Hats are more wearable with snoods and ribbon trims used as back interest in the top of fall styles. Mr. John N. Horton According to Mr. John N.

Religion* Intolerance. . One youngster was severely perse­ cuted by his classmates because he attended church catechism after school. The boys would get his pray­ er book and read from it in voices mixed with derision and scorn. Not for an instant during the school was was this youngster allowed to forget his difference of opinion on religious matters. He was constantly engag­ ed in quarrels for which he frequent­ ly was censured. As a result this boy became sullen and his school work suffered. Had his teacher been aware of the situation, she could have endeavored to seek the cooperation of the chil­ dren’s parents without great difficul­ ty. But, she too was swayed by re­ ligious intolerance and sympathized with the children of prominent fam­ ilies who made life miserable for-the particular pupil whom they consid­ ered to be outside their realm. Such a situation is not uncommon in smaller communities with a limit­ er number of churches. One cannot help feeling that a general course in religion, together with a history of the various churches, would do much to alleviate conditions of this kind. Ignorance, which is usually at the base of all religious intolerance, can be effectively checked only through education, . - TIM ai*M«Mn 1MM Mm MikJt jw la Uh >Him« tba; vafMftiauut, MM* they will be found reliable and responsible ta every rasped • Ptays*cbu*s and 8 argeotM W.

Character Direct* Intelligence. Wheif approximately fifty per cent of all school children are outside the guiding Influence of the church, and when our public schools and colleges are prohibited from teaching reli­ gion, how can children gain a know­ ledge of religion, morality and char­ acter 7 Where shall be obtain our future leaders if religious training is elim­ inated from the curriculum? Without character, Intelligence Is only a mockery.’ Character is necessary to direct intelligence. Unless our future leaders possess character together with intelligence, there is danger that our present civilization will vanish. Therefore, if character is neces­ sary to direct intelligence why should it not be feasible for all’churches to unite, and insist that some form of religious training be given to the twelve or fifteen million children who are not now, or who wil never be. affiliated with any church? Statis­ tics show that most of the four mil­ lion criminals at large today have had no religious training. Practicing What We Preach. A church which is located only a few blocks from one of the most ap­ palling slums districts in the coun­ try, sent a splendid donation to its foreign mission board for work among the heathen. When we consider that so much work can be done at home in reclaim­ ing the lives of thousands of pre-dellnquent children, we are forced to in­ quire why more effort is not exerted on home missions. Before sending barrels of clothing to poor little chil­ dren in Africa, members of the Mis­ sionary society mignt look about them and ascertain first if there are any children at home who need at­ tention. Church attendance has fallen off thirty per cent In recent years. More attention should be given to streng­ thening the influence of churches here in the United States. An Asiatic visitor to America once humorously observed, ’-Why is it that you Americans are always saving someone else when you haven't as yet saved yourselves?” Churches Frequently Do Not Reach The Children Found In Juvenile Court. Ministers lament tthe fact that re­ duced church budget forces them to limit their operations among children to those who are on their church ros­ ter. It is very encouraging to note, however, that in various localities as­ sociations of ministers are endeavor­ ing to assume wider spiritual respon­ sibility over the entire community, so that they may reduce the number of delinquent children appearing in court each year.. In order to enable the churches to reach the families that have no re­ ligious connections, local courts are reporting cases of child delinquency that come before them to the minis­ terial association. After the parents indicate a church preference, the courts insist that both the offender and his parents actively participate in the functions of the church. There is a definite connection be­ tween the lack of church training and crime. If religion is removed, what can be substituted for the moral guid­ ance of the child? Certainly not the liberal minded viewpoints which seem to dominate many parents today. Young men and women require mor­ al restraint They should not look with scorn upon the relig ous culture or ideals of their parents.

These agencies include the State Board of Public Instruction, the National Youth Administration of Michigan, the Michigan Unemploy­ ment Compensaton Commission, the Michigan State Employment Service, the Board of Education in Detroit, the Detroit Council for Youth Ser­ vice, the University of Mlch'gan, and Michigan Child Guidance Institute. They are already at work and have been for a long time but they find that they must have more information about you. It is necessary to know what education you are receiving or have had. what your ^occupational experience has been, what your work interests are, and where you are working or expect to work. Within the next three months, an enumerator will visit one-fifth of the youth between 16 and 24 years of age in the state and request these young peop.e to give about 15 minutes of their time to answering a few ques­ tions. (Only one-fifth of the youth will be interviewed in order to save time and money. In this case a sam­ ple is almost as good as a complete study). The questions asked w.11 be simple and will not be embarrassing. The enumerators will be carefully selected for their jobs; they will be polite; and they will regard all-infor­ mation as confidential. Tiie enumerator will call at your home and, if you are not there, will attempt to make an appointment to see you. Please leave word at home that you want the appointment made. If the information is to be complete and accurate, ft must come from you. Remember that the interview will be very brief and your answers confi­ dential. SOMETHING NEW UNDER THE SUN That is what the Methodist folks are putting on in the Community House next Friday night. A chickex pie supper is nothing new, but when it Is offered free, that is something else again. This is a public invita­ tion to all Methodist members and friends to partake of free chicken pie next Friday night. Inspired by Mrs. Chester Smith, the ladies of the Main street division have raided the hen roosts and will make the spoil into delectable pie. All they ask is that those who come bring their own dishes and table service, also that they bring such side dishes as salads, dessert, vegetables and other “fixings." Also a good appe­ tite and a spirit of good fellowship. Supper served at 6:45 punctually. Coffee is provided. An entertain­ ment will follow. When all have well eaten and drun­ ken and are in right good mood, plans for heating equipment for the par­ sonage and additional equipment for the Community House will be pre­ sented and plans for paying for them discussed. Every friend of the church is invited to enjoy this even­ ing of fellowship and feasting. RECEPTION OF NEW MEMBERS AT EVANGELICAL CHURCH Nearly a hundred attended the morning worship service at the Ev­ angelical church last Sunday. The choir assisted with response after prayer and an anthem, “All for Christ.” by Owen. The pastor spoke from the text: "So built we the wall . . . for the people had a mind to work." (Neh. 4:6. Following the ser­ mon there were five received into church fellowship; two by Confession of Faith, and three by transfer of letter. Those uniting were Mr. and Mrs. Marshall Belson, Mcrwyn Plum­ ley. Mrs. Anna K. DeBolt, and Mrs. Laura Showalter. The service closed with a solo, "My Task," sung by Donald Ostroth (a brother of Mrs. W. C. Bassett), and dedicatory prayer. Others who anticipate uniting with the church will be given opportunity Sunday morning, Nov. 26th.

By Gene Allemao The modem American gypsies, the Henry Smith family, have been re­ discovering Michigan's 56 state parks. Whereas Grandfather Smith was content to pitch his tent on any well drained camp site along a lake or stream. Henry and his tribe arc spoil­ ed to comforts of civilization. Grand­ father may have liked to “rough it," but the present Smith clan go to^a state park and they want conven­ iences of home. All of this is merely leading up to the interesting fact, and a rather timely one too, that the state con­ servation department has a new problem child on its doorstep, and while officials think they know what to do about it, they're not absolutely sure. One result, to get the ending at the beginning, was the 1939 legislature's action in authorizing $500,000 more funds for tne state parks’ biennial ap­ propriation (and that in the teeth of a determined economy crusade) for the express purpose of modernizing state parks throughout Michigan. Through the magic of COC and WPA. this amount will be pyramided to $2,000,000 or more and the conser­ vation department expects that many dollars to go a long ways to pacify Henn’ Smith and his youngsters. NUMBER 16. a lot more service than the casual picnicker. The state department faces the quandry: “Shall we estab­ lish a nominal fee for camping priv­ ileges in state parks, say 25 cents per day for the entire camping party?" “If such a camping fee would be acceptable to the Henry Smiths, do we possess legal powers to authorize such a fee or must we ask the legis­ lature for the right?"

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 19,1939 ers of the nation are furnishing the “cows, hay, straw and barn room.” If one of the "cows" dies, the taxpay­ ers are expected to furnish another. Right now, in St. Johns, there are some homes being offered to the highest bidder which s government agency has had to take over on loans made which were too high. The same thing is happening in thousands of cities and towns. It is happening on farms and with chatteled live stock. The loss is charged back, to the tax­ payers. The Tennessee Valley Authority with the government furnishing ev­ erything, writes off a loss of $1,000,­ 000 in a single year—something that no private company can compete with any more than the milkman could compete with the preacher. Some day people will realize that a government, made-up of politicians and social-minded theorists, cannot run a business as efficiently, and soundly as can the men who have spent their lifetimes working at that business. — Clinton County Republican-Newa I Harry F.

He is earnestly striving to have all Dept .of State employees so fully acquainted with the necessity for general safety edu­ cation that they can assist in this campaign in every way possible. Other meetings of Dept, of State branch managers and employees will be held throughout the Lower Penin­ sula of Michigan to make this safety campaign effective and to help make all operators of Motor Vehicles saf­ ety-conscious. Mr. Kelly is very appreciative of the splendid cooperation being given by the press of the state, automotive publications and other media in ac­ quainting every citizen with the im­ portance and timeliness of the new safety regulations that will cause many of our present-day traffic prob­ lems to disappear, and save lives and property.

We have failed Thee again and aguin. and again and again we have caused shame to come upon the race of men, but Thou are always forgiving and mindful of us. We have turned to Thee in this, another dark hour in our world's l^story. Help us to build a new world in which dwelleth right­ eousness and peace. There is no hope without Thee. We cry peace, peace, but there can be no peace un­ til again we place Thee upon the throne of our hearts. Take from us all hate and malice, greed and sel­ fishness, fear and discontent and give to us the love of Christ and His for­ giving and redemptive spirit. Make of our world, through us, a great brotherhood, a universal neighbor­ hood. Bring to us Thy peace and toe assurance of Thy everlasting interest and care in behalf of Thy wayfaring children. In the name of our Lord Christ. Amen." . —D. Heber Hamlin. 84, born in Hamlin township, Eaton county, and brother of J. Sumner Hamlin, former publisher of toe Eaton Rapids Jour­ nal. died.

THURSDAY, OCT. 19, 1W» MICHIGAN CO-OPERATIVE CROP REPORTING SERVICE County Agent New* As the crop season of 19p9 nears Its close final yields now can be more fully appralbed. As of Octi 1, nearly all of Michigan field crops show bet­ ter than average per-acre yields, and all tree fruits have a production In excess of toe 10-year average. Weath­ er conditions were unusually favor­ able for harvesting operations during September and rapid progress was made. Most crops were fully matur­ ed in advance of the first general frosts, which occurred in northern counties on Septi 23 and in southern counties on Octi 1. While moisture was plentiful in most of the northern counties, September was very dry throughout many southern counties. The Michigan potato crop suffered a set-back during September as a re­ sult of an attack of late blight. The disease developed rapidly during the early days of the month and, while partially checked in the drier sec­ tions by the extreme heat around the middle of the month. It has spread over many fields in the central and northern counties where it Is causing considerable rot in affected unsprayed fields. The counties reporting pres­ ence of the disease represent approx­ imately one-half of the state’s total acreage. Lack of rainfall in some sections during September curtailed growth of tubers and some fields are yielding many small sized potatoes. These adverse factors were offset by good growing conditions and improv­ ed prospects in other counties where moisture was ample and no apprecia­ ble amount of disease exists. The estimated production is 27,825,000 bushels, which compares with 30,000,­ 000 grown in 1938. Ln that year, culling consisted chiefly of over-sized and ill-shaped potatoes whereas this year it will be mainly of under-sized and diseased tubers and is expected to be quite heavy. For the third successive year Mich­ igan bean yields have exceeded early season expetations. Harvesting was nearly completed by the end of Sep­ tember and, except in a few local areas, with a minimum of weather damage. The production Is placed .at 4.205 000 bags against 4,567,000 bags In 1938. The proportion of cull beans known in trade channels as "The Pick," is expected to be below aver­ age. White pea beans comprised 88 par cent of the state’s 1938 crop. In­ formation on 1939 varieties is not yet available, but toe proportion of white pea beans is expected to be somewhat less than last year because of an ap­ parent increase In the acreage of cranberry beans In many counties. The production of sugar beets is estimated at 836.000 tons compared with 1,005,000 tons in 1938. A slight­ ly smaller acreage was planted and dry weather reduced the yields tc a point slightly below those obtained a year ago. During the first half of this year the prices of practically all farm products were lower than a year ago. There was a sharp advance in most items during the first half of Septem­ ber and on toe 15th prices were con­ siderably above those of the corres­ ponding date last year. However, poultry and egg prices remained lower and milk prices were at about the same level. Fruit prices have averaged considerably lower than in the 1038 season because of the much larger supply. Prices of a number of farm commodities, especially grain and beans, have declined somewhat since the middle of the month. COUNTY AGENT NEWS The Bureau of Animal Industry at Lansing has notified County Agent Harold Foster that they are now ready to re-teat the cattle of Barry county for tuberculosis. It has been a little more than three years since the last county test, and the county would soon drop from the accredited free T. B. area without this present county wide test. The work will start right away and it is hoped the county will be com­ pleted within the next two months, according to Mr. Foster. Local vet­ erinarians are being employed to do the work. This Is an idea Itime of the year to do this work as all cattle will soon be up from pasture, thus causing very little inconvenience for the work on the part of our farmers. Each herd owner will receive a abort notice as to the date the veterinary will call at his farm. Turkey growers of Barry and ad­ joining counties will gather at the W. B. Hobbs farm, one mile east of Banfield, on Tuesday afternoon. Octi 24, to view the Hobbs flock and hold a discussion on turkey raising with M. S. C. turkey specialist. The meet­ ing will start at 1:30 p. m., accord­ ing to County Agent Foster. Mrs. Hobbs has been growing turkeytf for a number of years with a great deal of success. Her flock is considered one of the fine flocks of toe state. This year she has a size­ able flock she is feeding for the com­ ing Thanksgiving market, which growers in this section will be pleas­ ed to view. Otis Shear, turkey specialist from M. S. C., as well as other specialists from the college poultry department, will appear on the afternoon program discussing problems of the turkey raiser. Many farmers of Barry county have found turkey raising to be a very profitable side line and it is expected a good sized group will attend the Tuesday meeting at the Hobbs farm. Local turkey raisers are invited to attend and discuss their particular problems.

ROWENA DOG DIETS PRODUCED AT PORTLAND Rowena Dog Diets are now manu­ factured entirely in Portland as the result of the recent installation of a modern bakery at the Valley City Milling company plant in Portland. For nearly 10 years, since Rowena Dog Diets have been on the market, the baking process has been carried on in a commercial bakery while the manufacture of the mash and later the grinding of the biscuits Into the various sizes of Rowena Dog Diets has been done In Portland. The bakery for the processing of Rowena has been installed in a building used years ago as a cooper­ age shop. There has been installed an oil-heated circular oven measuring 20 feet in diameter, a dough mixer and Rowena cookie cutter. The oven has a capacity of 8000 pounds of Rowena Dog Diets per day. Much greater control of toe finish­ ed product is now afforded with the entire processing done in Portland. Installation of toe bakery has given employment to two more men. —Robert Olds. 53, power plant manager at Belding, who was struck on the head with an Indian club wielded by his wife, Blanch, 55, died in Belding hospital.

TWO APPLES SHOW OLD, NEW SPRAYS j > । | j j These two McIntosh apples, sprayed in the old and the new ways, illustrate what Michigan State College entomologists have found in a five year series of experiments. Neither of these apples is wormy, but the one at the left, protected on the tree with an arsenical spray, needs washing before it could be marketed. On the right, also pro­ tected and not wormy, is an apple with no appreciable residue and what little spray still remains is harmless because the spray was a nicotine product. Adoption of the new spray by Michigan apple growers is expected to aid in marketing a better quality apple without necessity of washing, which often bruises the akin and adds to production costs. �Town*end Club. in Battle Cwk Tuesday CLASSIFIED Albert Ostroth visited Friday tU regular election in December upheavals, ancient and modem, have been much alike.

Visitors to the No .1 summer vaca­ tion state may wonder at the appar­ ent uneconomic worth of the vast forest areas in the northern counties of the Lower Peninsula and those in the Upper Peninsula. The fact still remains that 34,529 square miles of this territory ' in Michigan yielded last year an annual income of well over $100 per square mile. Soon more than 160,000 red-clad hunters will take to the Michigan woods in pursuit of the wily buck. Questionnaires distributed among thousands of hunters indicate that the average hunter spends more than $25 during this 16-day hunting season, a grand total of more than $4,000,000 annually. This is a business apprais­ al and does not include the recrea­ tional benefit of a fall vacation In the north woods. ed area is heavily grazed. In the vast Cusino yard in Alger and School­ craft counties, for example, the pres­ ent deer herd that winters then is es­ timated to be less than one-tenth of what it was a few years ago. Of the 253 wintering areas covering more than 1300 square miles in the Upper Peninsula investigated up to and including 1939, only ten per cent contained an abundance of food for the deer using them. The rest of the land was either in poor or medium condition for winter browsing. NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, OCT. 26 1939 Club Women Attend S. W. Di«t. Meeting Barr) Co.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 26.1939 There was a time when people's wants became needs be­ cause they thought so much about them. That was years ago. Today, with its changed conditions, wants are too often needs from the beginning. For instance, the time has arrived when specialized education is a pre­ requisite of employment No matter how good ones general education', special education is neces­ sary for jobs now open. This is conclusive evidence of pro­ gress, and there’s no alternative to preparation to "keep step” but to fall out of line.—Frank B. Craig. ------ o-----Hou To Do Henry Ward Beecher More Work, once was asked how he managed to get through so much work in a day. He replied: •’By never doing anything twice. I never anticipate my work and never worry about it When the time comes to do a thing I do It and that’s the end of it” . The fussy, hurried, worried man is the chap who tries to do everything at once. He dabbles in this and dab­ bles in that—finishing nothing. He picks up a letter to answer it and lays it down to pick up another letter and fuss with that. He puts the hard work at the bottom o4 the pile. He leaves a hard job on his desk day af­ ter day until it absolutely has to be done and then he rushes it out in such a hurry that it seldom is done right. This man goes home in the evening with frayed nerves. In imagination he drags his desk and papers home with him and worries about them there. The big things in life never are done by a fussy man. When one Is worrying about half a dozen tasks that must be done in the future, he fails to do the present task as it should be done. One task at a time, finished and started on its way, be­ fore tackling the next task, is a rule that makes for poise and power.— The Silver Lining. Waste Become Needs. “A New Crea- God has invited man tion.” to become a new creaton, God’s last creation. Man becomes God's last creation by becoming a Christian. One becomes a Christian by having faith that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and accepting Him personally as the saviour. Jesus Christ Is spoken of in the Bible as “The Last Adam.” He is the head of the new species called “Christians.” God’s only method in nature and in grace is creating. He told a good religious man, a smart man,-a cutured man, Nicodemus by name, “Ye must be born again.” God is a creator! Christ is a creator and imparts new life to be­ lievers. Christ is "The Way, the Truth and the Life.” Christ says. "No man cometh to the Father but by me.” Creation, not evolution, is God's method in all of matter and life. Only ■'born-again” souls are saved. “How can it be?” asks Nicodemus. “How can creation be ” That is the question. He asks Nicodemus If he knew where the wind comes from, and where it is when it is not blow­ ing. Here is the wind whistling in the holes of the roof and it is strong enough to shake the tiles. Jesus explains, "So it is (with) every one that is born of the Spirit.” “Behold. I stand at the door and knock” (like wind on the terra cotta tile). “If any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come into him.” Rev. 3:20. Christianity is the recreation of human beings into new creatures by the Lord Jesus Christ. Those who believe and receive Him are born again and are to be like Christ.Today's Gospel Truth by Irving G. Wahlstrom. The Day To When you think of Give Thanks. Thanksgiving, you must also think of the state in which it Is to be celebrated; otherwise you may be a week off on the date. One date is the old one, the last Thursday in November which falls on the thirtieth; the other is the new one .‘■-ugg ”3ted by the Presi­ ' dent, which is November 23. There -has been much discussion, some of it rather heated, over the proposed change. In some states sentiment approves it, in other states the people stand pat on tthe tradi­ tional date. The latest reports indi­ cate almost an even break among the states—22 will celebrate the early date, 23 the later date, two (Colo­ rado and Texas) will celebrate both, and one (Mississippi) has made no decision. The states that will celebrate Thanksgiving on Nov. 23 are these: California, Delaware, Georgia, Illi­ nois, Indiana, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Utah Virginia. Washington, West Virginia, Wyoming. Those that adhere to the old fa­ miliar last Thursday are: Alabama, Arizon.a, Arkansas, Connecticut, Florida, Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Ken­ tucky, Maine, Massachusetts, Minne­ sota, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hamp­ shire, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oklahoma,, Rhode Island, South Da­ kota, Tennessee, Vermont, Wisconsin. What makes such a diversity of views? It would be interesting to figure out the reason, but that is not easy. Of course the holiday has to be proclaimed by the various gover­ nors, and the first thought that aris­ es is that Democratic governors are inclined to accept the President's choice while Republicans are not But on checking up the states we find that of the 23 governors favoring the new date 11 are Democrats and 12 are Republicans. So politics seems to be out of it How about sections? Is there a regional preference one way or the othe? Again no light. In the east­ ern states the last stands six for the old date, five for the new; in the cen­ tral part seven for the old, five for the new; in the west four for the GW. six for the new; in the south six for each date. Evidently the Yankees, the old southerners, the westerners and the people of out region seem to be in about the same state of dis­ agreement How about climate? Again a pretty even break. In the warmer southern naif of the country nine are for the old date, six for the new; in the cooler half 14 for the old date, 16 for the new. Perhaps it is football schedules, the turkey market, sun spots, or something like that But among all the varying deci­ sions, our choice is that of Colorado and Texas—one northern and Repub­ lican, the other southern and Demo­ cratic. They are to have two thanks­ givings and two turkey dinners. Two is just twice as good as one. Why The Radio broadcasters have Curb? decided to bar Father Coughlin and the Townsendites from buying time on the air. They take the position that these two are Indulging in discussion of highly controversial matters and tend to stir up dissention in the na­ tion. It happens that a great many of us may not always agree with Father Coughlin and that a great many more of us may not approve the Townsend Plan, but have we come to that pass in this country that we bar those with whom we do not agree from the right of presenting their side of an issue? The air waves have become as important a means of communica­ tion, of assembly ,of expression, of debate, as the printed word or the word spoken in a town meeting or other public forum. Let the govern­ ment attempt to curb the freedom of the press or freedom of speech and it would stir up a splendid row, with the Supreme court finally notifying the government that it was act'ng in violations of the Constitution of the United Sttaes. It is of course, somewhat different with the broadcasting companies. They arc private corporations having a commodity to sell. Naturally, they have a right to sell it or. not to sell it, to be selective as to whom they do sell. Yet the broadcasting com­ panies are an important medium of communication and exchange of thought and they are under the con­ trol of the government Probably they, have the legal right to bar Father Coughlin and the TownsendIles from the purchase if time on the air waves which they control, out are they wise in so doing ? We think not They should .of course, have the pow­ er to edit what is said on the air to the extent that the language should be clean, that the subject matter should be clean, that neither the lan­ guage nor the subject matter should be of the incendiary type and that, so far as humanly possible, the argu­ ments should be truthful in all res­ pects. But to say that Father Coughlin may not buy time on the air or that the Townsend ites rrlay not buy time on the air just because the mat­ ters with which they deal do not meet the approval of the broadcasting companies or of any particular group is to place an Improper curb upon freedom of speech and of assembly and of communication guaranteed the American people under the Bill of Rights. It was a grave tactical error, we think, on the part of the broadcasting companies to bar Father Coughlin and the Townsendltes from the pur­ chase of time on the air. Two great controversies right now are of more than ordinary Interest to the people of the nation. One is the Neutrality Act which Father Coughlin discusses. The other is aid for the aged which Dr .Townsend has promulgated. Many persons are arraigned on both sides of these two questions. They should be given full and free opportunity to discuas .their sides of the questions so long as they do it in decency and in truth.—Grand Rapids Herald. Unlimited There are perhaps few Visibility, reports more welcome to an aviator than that of "unlimited visibility,” with its assur­ ance of a clear atmosphere, unob­ structed ceiling, smooth passage. Not alone to an aviator, but to others al­ so, is the phrase significant, hinting something deeper than the mere technical implications. For instance, in whatever walk of life one may find himself, what peace and joy would come from an assurance of definite, continuous progress with no obstruc­ tions or reversals! Such assurance is by no means im­ possible of achievement. If one were to depend simply upon mortal theor­ ies and panaceas for guidance and inspiration, he might sometimes en­ joy temporary success, but ultimate­ ly he would experience disappoint­ ment and frustration. Yet in turning to the truth, founded on the Scrip­ tures, he would have the sure basis for his hope, and realize progress and well-being. Throughout religious his­ tory. the consciousness of unlimited good has been the experience of many devout and spiritually-minded men and women. Christ Jesus possessed, in the highest degree, true spiritual vision, which enabled him to overrule every untoward condition presented to him. John, in the bleak setting of Pat­ mos, was so imbued with spiritual light that he received a glorious vi­ sion of “a new heaven and a new earth” (Revelation 21:1). In more recent tunes, the revelation of demon­ strable Truth has been made avail­ able to all mankind through the pur­ ity and consecration of Mary Baker Eddy. In the teaching of Christian Science, many have gained a provable and happifying understanding of God as all-governing, omnipotent Princi­ ple and of man as the spiritual, com­ plete and unerring reflection or ex­ pression of divine Mind . The utiliza­ tion of these facts, the prayerful in­ sistence on their reality and present manifestation, even in the face of ap­ parent difficulties—loss, limitation., perplexity, unhappiness—has resulted and is resulting, in freedom, progress and success for unnumbered people. The term “visible" is defined, in part, as “perceivable by the eye,’ and also as "mentally perceptible." When one grasps in some measure the great facts of spiritual being which are not cognized by physical sight, the possibilites of spiritual vision are seen to be unlmited and unimpeded by material finite conditions and wouidbe obstructions. In the words of Paul (I Corinthians 4:18), <me learns to "look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal." These eternal verities, dis­ cernible to spiritual sense, include il­ limitable goodness, affluence, and harmony. Spiritual man is fetterless, unfal­ len, reflecting infinite Mind, God. his origin. Maa’s possibilities for express•g good and blessedness are there­ fore as unrestricted and inexhaust­ ible as his source. In human exper­ ience, the arguments that would make for mistiness or obscurencss— fear, doubt, discouragement, ignor­ ance, wurldlinesa, sin—are the out­ come of the belief that man has a mortal existence separate from God. But Christ‘an Science reveals man as the individual expression of *v‘nej£ivil War Diane* Mind, incapable of knowing aught but fT1/ “ ” ~ perfection, since Mind is perfect All | VFT UeOTge DFOWI1 attributes of God, including discern" ' Copied From Original, B, Oreatmeat, wisdom and ability are ex­ pressed by man. Freedom from a false sense of res­ ponsibility and the depressing fear of failure are won as one realizes man’s eternal oneness with his heavenly Father. What serenity comes from the recognition that man, as God’s idea or reflection, is dependent only on Mind for all capability and sagac­ ity, and that this reflection is immut­ able, eternal, and irreversible! Like­ wise to man, the flawless manifesta­ tion of Life, superstitious beliefs re­ garding sickness, age, accident, are unknown. However aggressive,i ter­ rifying, or stubborn the appearance of discord may seem to material sense, spiritual harmony alone is su­ preme and real. Apprehending tills fact importunately and consistently, one can triumph over false beliefs and prove his Godgiven dominion. “Gods gifts put man’s best dreams to shame,’ a well-loved poet once wrote, as perhaps a gentle though forceful rebuke to the human tenden­ cy to outline what one might consid­ er best and most desirable for his welfare. In -’Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures” (p: B91) Mrs. Eddy defines Mind, in part, as "De­ ity, which outlines but is not out­ lined.* In the study of Christian Sci­ ence, one early learns of the inevit­ able blessings which come from wait­ ing on God and sincerely desiring that His will be done. Love has estab­ lished all' good, and maintains His idea, man, in harmony, completeness, perfection, and joy. Tills truth, un­ derstood and applied, acts as law in one’s human experience, supplying whatever the need may be—harmon­ ious relationships, home, food cloth­ ing, employment. Progress, in its highest sense, means working with God, and is evidenced in one's intent and conduct rather than in merely material enrich­ ment But right reward necessarily follows righteous endeavor, and is in­ separable from it In these Inspiring words Mrs. Eddy has assured un of ever-present divine help (Miscellan­ eous Writings, p. 113): "Divine Love is our hope, strength, and shield. We have nothing to fear when Love is at the helm of thought but everything to enjoy on earth and In heaven.”— Christian Science Monitor.

Sam Varney is home from WebberNew York Qty — More than 12b oween with a party Tuesday night MICHIGAN STATE RADIO H1GHJ1GHTS from Dr. Francis E- Station WKAR, Michigan State col• Dr. Townsend. addressed a special luncheon meeting arranged in his hon­ or by The Municipal Forum of New York, a discussion body composed of officers of savings and commercial banks, investment* trusts, insurance - companies, bond houses, municipal bond law firms, and other financial interests. ' Interest High. So great was the interest and at­ tention exhibited by these business and industrial leaders in Dr. Town­ send's brilliant exposition of his re­ covery program that at times you could have heard a pin drop on the thickly carpeted floor of the Lawyers' Club dining room where the meeting was held. That interest and attention were more than polity was indicated by the fact that the entire audience remain­ ed for more than an hour after Dr. Townsend had finished speaking to pepper him with questions and parti­ cipate in a spirted discussion of the technical aspects of the Plan. With frankness and candor Dr. Townsend outlined the fundamentals of the Townsend Plan, described the mechanics of the Townsend Organi­ zation, and pointed to the “unprece­ dented growth of national support for oar ideals. ” Need Wider Market. "You business men," he said, "haven't concerned yourself seriously with your most important interest— the stabilization and maintenance of a broader market for your goods and services. Yet, you know as well as we that business can't thrive as it should thrive until all of the people are thriving. “You know the greatest economic problem of our time is to create pur­ chasing power - able and willing to consume goods as rapidy as you can produce them. Yet, because you are beset by fear, you haven't found a solution. “Gentlemen, we have found a solu­ tion. And whether you like it or not, we are going to try that solution out.” Lively Question Session. James H. Carpenter, an executive of the Bankers Trust Co. of New York and president of the Forum, in­ troduced Dr. Townsend. In his in­ troductory remarks Mr. Carpenter said, "Neither business nor govern­ ment, singly or together, seems to have found any permanent solution for the depression problems which confront us. We. therefore, welcome the outstanding advocate of pen­ sions.' In the question period which fol­ lowed Dr. Townsend's address, busi­ ness executives showed themselves keenly intereted in the technical as­ pects of the tax program necessary to raise the pension funds. With the aid of Louis C. Silva, tax expert for the Townsend Organization, Dr. Townsend answered all questions ful­ ly and frankly and to the apparent satisfaction of all present. • Fact* on essential phases of homcmaking arc offered six days a week to Michigan housewives in the Home­ makers’ Hour on WKAR.

Pedestrians On Rural Highways. Nearly 40 per cent of those killed In Michigan traffic accidents are pe­ destrians. Many of the accidents in­ volving these victms occur at night. Rules for the pedestrian along rural highways form an important part of Michigan’s new traffic laws . When walking along highways, pe­ destrians nffist do so on the left side facing on-coming traffic. School chil­ dren have been taught this rule for many years. Michigan State Police accident records shew that it is the elders, and not the children, that are involved in most of the pedestrian fatalities on rural highways. At prevailing speeds, motorists cannot see pedestrians at night in time to avoid hitting them. There­ fore. the pedestrian must be watchful WELCOME PHLLATHEAS, of his own safety.

One national retail authority Is quoted by the New York Times as figuring that the adjusted retail sales index of the Federal Reserve Board would close the year at close to 100, which would compare with 92 in Sep­ tember and 89 in December one year ago. Oddly enough, while European peace wotild undoubtedly benefit the United States in the long run and save it from serious trade misplace­ ments that inevitably must follow a disastrous long conflict, an immed­ iate armistice would have a tendency to stop present speculation due to ex­ pected war orders.

NOV, t, 1»M Federal Bureau of Prisons, when he was speaking before the American Prison Congress recently. They are not the statements of any half-baked reformer, nor those of persons who have just made a guess. It is Mr. Bennett’s business to "know who goes into the prisons and why, in what number and all about them. It is his business also to know who comes out, when and why and. if later they return, to know all about that also. Mr. Bennett says that we have failed utterly in this country in re­ making those of our people who, for offenses great or minor, find their way into our prisons. In the last 25 years or so we have done a heap of talking about penology and have tried to change the name ‘■prison" in­ to “man factory," or an equivalent term. We have tried so-called soft penology, have made over our prisons physically into institutions which would do credit to colleges. We have given to prisoners every possible at­ tention by way of education, amuse­ ment, physical care. We have per­ mitted them to have football teams, baseball teams, moving picture shows, radios, bands, orchestras, glee clubs -and about everything that many of our honest and clean, but less fortu­ nate, people are not able to enjoy. We have overwhelmed our prisoners with teachers, preachers, penologists, psy­ chologists, psychiatrists, social work­ er and a multitude of other special­ ists who are supposed to remake them physically, mentally and morally. And when we have done all of this, we still find that 56 per cent of them within five years and many of- them within as many months are back be­ hind the bars. Mr. Bennett says we haven’t had enough of these various guides to a better life that most of the convicts aee not aware that any attempt has been made to rehabilitate them. He recommends more such guides. But is it logical, in view of the great in­ crease In the number of guides and the great changes in the ffcnal meth­ ods .in the face of which our prison population constantly increases and the old ones come back to their cells, to continue this sort of experiment? Might it not be possible, as we sug­ gested in an editorial recently, that if our prisons were to be made pris­ ons, places of punishment for offens­ es against society, that perhaps few­ er would get in and fewer would re­ turn, because prisons no longer would be palaces af amusement? — Grand Rapids Herald.

God is not to be feared, for He is our heavenly Father who cares for us, watches over us, and knows us only as His perfect reflection. The understanding of this fact helps us to overcome sin, disease, and death. It enables us to claim with assur­ ance the protection which David ac­ knowledged in the ninety-first Psalm (91:12): "I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust" Many today, in those countries al­ ready torn with the experiences of war, cry out for relief from tragic burdens. Human help may bring mo­ mentary surcease, but only an un­ derstanding of the one God can fully bring about harmony. As long as one believe* himself to be the victim of circumstances over which he has no control, he will suffer as a result of this belief. But Christian Science teaches that spiritual understanding gives one authority over these wrong beliefs; that as the lies of material­ ity are replaced with the truths of spirituality, the illusion of matter dis­ appears, for matter is unreal. Regardless of how real it may seem to be matter is merely the seeming manifestation of mortal mind, which itself has no reality. As one begins to understand his sonship with God. he will find his individual freedom and will be enabled to help others. | This teaching will spread throughout the world until eventually all man­ kind will understand the truth. Mrs. Eddy, referring to the effort necessary to overcome evil says (Science and Health, p. 407),, "Here Christian Sci­ ence is the sovereign panacea, giving strength to the weakness of mortal mind,—strength from the immortal and omnipotent Mind,—and lifting humanity above Itself into purer de­ sires, even into spiritual power and good-will to man."—Christian Science Monitor. America's greatness has grown out of the ideals of human freedom as conceived by the framers of the Con­ stitution.

Throughout the controversy all .have agreed' that this nation should keep out of war, one side advocating that retention of the embargo would keep us out, the other side that it would get us in. It is now conceded that the move to repeal was for the purpose of aiding Britain and France. • Over the radio the other night, the President said that we would stay out. that those who intimated that he by his talk and hi« sympathy for one ride and desire to aid that side would get us into war were raising a boogy man, were utterly mistaken. Let us hope that that is true for very few want war und most of us are praying that we stay out, but some recall that Pat Hurley, former Secretary of War. prophesied that if Roosevelt was elected, the nation would go off the gold standard. Answering that prophecy, at the President's request, Senator Glass replied: "For the sake of decency, it must be hoped that Secretary Hurley did not say that. If be did. he was guil­ ty of a dangerous calumny. If he said it. he is totally unfit for official responsibility. and the President should have booted him out of office before breakfast time the following day. Indecency even in a political campaign has its limitations. This alleged declaration if made by this strutting trumpeter of the President was not far short of treason." Unfortunately, tor the President and Senator Glass, within six months after the President's inauguration. Pat Hurley's prophecy came true and the nation went off the gold standard. Let us hope and pray that tills time the President mans what he says and that we stay out-of war. As a broad general rule, the Rep­ resentatives of the people who live along the seacoast or in some of the great manufacturing districts, are In favor of repeal. The first because of the friendship for and sympathy of, their people is with England and they desire to help her. The second because their factories are showing a wartime prosperity. Representatives from the Middle West and the farming districts, are opposed to the shipment of arms for they feel it will get us into trouble. The question now Is: How far can we go in helping England and France fighting their war (not ouv war), without becoming Involved? In 1914 we began to aid by shipping muni­ tions; loaning money; extending cred­ it, then sending the Navy and Army. The first step, whether it be in drink­ ing or taking part in a fight, is a dangerous one. But is does not ne­ cessarily follow that f*very man who takes a drink is a drunkard. It is not true that the repeal of the Arms Embargo means war even though it be a definite step in that d rectlon. We can, and unless we have lost all of our common sense, we will, let that be the end if it We will refuse ab­ solutely to get into this war. We will stay out not because the President keeps us out nor will we go in if he follows Wilson's policy. We will stay out because the American people in­ sist that we stay out and no politicion, nor group of politicians; no in­ ternational banker, nor group of in­ ternational bankers, or money chang­ ers. or war profiteer, however power­ ful, are going to force us into this war, if the people’s Representatives are true to their trust Sincerely yours Clare E.

Since the vote' on Townsend legis­ lation in the Lower House of Con­ gress last June powerful political leaders have sought out leaders of the Townsend Organization to confer with tnem concerning support of the Plan. “Where before we have had to go to them, political leaders now are coming to us," Mr. Jeffery commentMr. Jeffery found particular sup­ port for the Townsend Movement in states where there has been agitation for state pensions. People there are realizing the impossibility of local pensions, financed on a local basis. This realization has won increasing support for the Townsend Plan. Mr. Jeffery's trip took him to Wis­ consin, Minnesota, North Dakota. Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon, California, Nevada, Wyoming, Utah, and Colorado. He spent seven weeks interviewing leaders of both major parties in all of these states. This consumed so much of his time that he was unable to speak before clubs and mass meetings. After his trip he revisited Washing­ ton, D. C. and then went on to the state-wide conference of Ohio clubs fa Columbus, where he spoke. He will attend the state conference of Pennsylvania clubs in Harrisburg where he also is scheduled to deliver an address. Meanwhile, he is active contacting political figures fa the Mid-west.

Ax the guests arrived they were escorted to a room to remove their wraps and also to place a good wah for the bride in the Wishing Basket, after which they placed their gift in the Shower corner. This wan a very prominent place, decorated by a raised umbrella trimmed wttA roses made of pink and green (the lodge colors) and plenty of rain. It also had all of the necessary articles for a shower. Such as rain­ coats, rubbers arctics, galoshes, rub­ ber boots, etc'., and the nook was banked with beautiful oak* branches. Several games were played; then the bride opened the gifts and thanked each donor. Lastly was found a card bidding her to "Follow the trail, as the going was good." She did, and it led over windows, back of pictures, under chairs, in the bedroom, around the bed. over the dresser, and ended in a closet in a bushel basket which she presently brought forth. It con­ tained jelly, jam, all kinds of vege­ tables wrapped in the colors, and al­ so a cabbage baby. Lastly she found two lovely vases, and this gift was from the hostesses. The guests were then invited to the dining room for a wonderful potluck lunch, also a brides cake and one for the groom. The centerpiece of the table was a miniature bride, circled by pink and green roses and pink candles. The guests left for their homes later, again wishing Mary and George a long happy married life. She was married Dec. 2, 1871, to Joseph Brandt, also of Bedford. Four children were born to them, all of whom are living: Fred Brandt of near Bellevue, Arthur Brandt of East Le­ roy. Irving Brandt who resides on the old homestead, and Mrs. Olive McIntyre of Maple Grove. Early in married life they moved to the farm near Lacey, where she has lived the past 54 years. For some years past the son Irving and family have resided with her. Those left to mourn their loss are the four children, 17 grandchildren, 18 great-grandchildren, other rela­ tives and a host of friends. Mr. Brandt became a member of the Methodist church early m married life. She was a faithful Christian and a willing work­ er for any project of her church and community. She loved to help those ta need, and with patience and tenderness cared for the illnesses of the entire family. Naturally of a calm and peaceful na­ ture. she made many lasting friend­ ships. Her cheerful outlook and her faith in God proved a great comfort to those who often came to her for guidance. These memories will be a blessing to all who knew her. ••We will appreciate the prompt About four weeks ago, she fell on the porch of her home, receiving in­ payment of your subscription. uries which caused her death.

I refuse to get up early enough to write this in the morning, so I'll celebrate your birthday a day early this year as last. It doesn't seem possible It was a year ago today Harriet Watson was with us, callers came for farewells, and the next day I left for New York and the Queen Mary! Well, war is declared in England, and I expect we will feel it again even here. Rhodesia is all organized far it and I expect many Rhodesian men are already waiting to go. It seems like a hideous nightmare to me! It is almost impossible to imag­ ine the effect the war will have in many ways. I' wonder, for one, how it -will affect our mail. Hope it does not make it slower, or lose it—selfish me! As though that matters in face of millions of lives lost, etc. I must tell you about a letter I got last mail. Do you remember me tell­ ing you about Martin, my boy in St. V, who seemed so unattractive to me at the first of yeur aqd then seemed to grow so much spiritually? He is the one who did not want me to paste his paper on h’s Bible test Effter he’d cheated in his book. Soon after Easter he was ill and did not return the second term. I wrote to him and reminded him of my interest in him and my prayers. I'll enclose his letter to me. He also wrote another note saying he was ill at the dispensary at Kwcrda but was better and hoped to teach the next three months for that mission in an out-station. He hopes to come back here next year. I would like the letter back, but wanted to share it with you. Do you wonder that I get so much happiness from my work here? His letter is pretty, good for one Ln a fore:gn language. Sept 11—War news keeps us pep­ ped up every night at 7:30, although I usually forget there ever is a war all day except when youngsters fire ques­ tions about it It Is so peaceful here it is hard to Imagine there can be war in England and Germany.

I1—■„■.■■—— ' ,'JLL Five Cents the Copy Michigan Mirror • By Gene Alleman Effective in Michigan this week is a new statute which strives once more to untangle the age-old problem of land. It mirrors a major part of the his­ tory of Michigan itself. This history is written in the terms of human use of land and of exploitation by out­ side interests of the land’s natural resources and by-products such as fur, timber, iron, copper, oil and gas. It recalls the hey-dey of greedy speculation of land in the Detroit metropolitan area . during the boom years of 1924, 1925 and 1926 when a wave of excessive and poorly con­ trolled subdividing swept the city and its environs, leaving in its wake a trail of tax delinquencies and over­ developed realty. It reveals a shameful neglect and Indifference by state and local gov­ ernment in intelligent planning and conservation. It reviews a reoccurring cycle of human ambition and disillusionment,, success and failure, happiness and heartaches. Here is a subject so commonplace that it is almost prosaic. Yet there probably is no one other thing in Michigan which affects so many people. Consider then for a few minutes this paramount problem of land and how our state government is trying £o solve it Southern. M ichigan. The land problem that exists in southern Michigan ia largely the re­ sult of a subdivision boom, quite like the Florida boom which developed in the mid-twenties. . Today, in the city of Detroit and in an adjacent area enough subdivided lots are on the tax rolls to accommo­ date an increase in population of three million people. The Michigan Planning Commis­ sion. in a survey completed in 1939, found that only 4.3 per cent of sup­ division lots in four townships. in Wayne county, immediately adjacent to Detroit, were beng utilized. The commission also pointed out that a lack of coordinated policy of restric­ tions had produced “rural slums." Out of 5,323 residences constructed in four townships, 60 per cent are with­ out furnaces, 58 per cent without bathrooms and 54 per cent without basements. In thirteen metropolitan townships studied, 65.1 per cent of all subdivi­ sion lots platted were advert:sed in the 1938 tax sale. More than threefourths of all advertised lots were tax delinquent for five or more years. The commission concludes: "The return of this land to private owner­ ship, unencumbered by delinquent taxes, will not assure the payment of taxes in the future, unless the return as accompanied by a program which will bring this land into proper use." It would only mean a repetition of existing abuses, another turn in the land merry-go-round. Responsibility for . prevention . of such abuses should be vested, the commission continues, with "legally constituted planning authorities hav­ ing jurisdiction broad enough in scope to encompass the overlapping inter­ ests of municipalities, townships and counties in the area affected by’ the plat-’* ■ „ !■!

They parked their car, crawled on hands and knees to within a few yards of the apparently unwary pheasant and let fly with several rounds of shotgun fire. The bird swayed, but stuck to its perch. Clos­ er inspection showed the pheasant was a rather moth-eaten stuffed spe­ cimen. It had outlived its usefulness as a decoration in the inn and was nailed on the fence post as an outof-season April 1 hoax. Several oth­ ers have had a try at the bird. One hunter, driving by, became so excited when he saw the pheasant that he backed is car into a telephone pole.

Governor Luren D. Dickinson, arch foe of John Barleycorn, will have ah Important appointment to make w.th­ in the next few weeks. The term of V. F. Gormley of De­ troit, member of the three-man state liquor control commission, expires or. Friday, Dec. 15. Other commission­ ers are Orrin A. DeMaas of Detroit, chairman, and Muri H. DeFoe of Charlotte, both appointees of the late Governor Frank Fitzgerald. Following Fitzgerald's death, Mr. Dickinson announced that his fellow townsman. Mr. DeFoe. would be his ••personal" representative on the state board. Since DeFoe apparently en­ joys the confidence of the governor and shares hia general philosophy as to the need of liquor control, the conclusion is logical that Dickinson will have an opportunity soon to do something about the “evils" which he has so relentlessly deplored, year in and year out, for the past decade or two. What is the liquor situation in Michigan today? Here are some cold facts. 16.202 Outlets. First, it’s easy to buy a drink tn Michigan. Today ah adult can purchase alco­ holic beverages at 16,202 different places tn the state. Of this number, 3,479 are public saloons (tap rooms or whatnot) where hard liquor is sold by the glass. Wayne county has 2,450 of these; it is possible tyndcr the present popula­ tion quota system for Wayne county to have 270 more. Taverns where you may buy beer or wine by the glass total 4,384. Then there are 9.566 "special di g­ itated merchants" (of which 4,213 are in Wayne county) which sell bottled beer or wine for consumption off the premises. Most of them are grocers. Hard iiquor by package may be pur­ chased at 1,358 places of bus'ness, most of them drug stores. Private clubs where liquor may be served total 397. Hotels licensed to serve liquor are 206 in "Class A" and 327 in "Class B," the classifications being set according to number of rooms. In addition to all this, the state operates exactly 100 stores of its own in larger communities through­ out Michigan. (Note: There is some overlapping in types of liquor outlets as given above; hence the total, 16,­ 202.)

Pennsylvania, another iiquor mon­ opoly state, permits no private out­ lets for sale of bottled beverages. Retail profits are confined to state stores. Ohio licenses less than 75 private outlets other than state stores. In contrast Michigan’s 16.202 out­ lets stand out rather sharply. * Here is one of the many problems confronting the state commission. It is a mild statement to observe that the Dec. 15 appointment by Gover­ nor Dickinson may be of outstanding significance. The possibility of a past president of the State- Anti-Saloon league being in a legal position to wield a state-wide whip for liquor con­ trol (within limitations of the legis­ lative act) is certainly intriguing, to say the least. Chicago Trip Contest For FFA Decided Wayne Pennock And John Dull, Jr., Accumulated “Most Pointe’’ and Get All-Expense Paid Trip. Wayne Pennock and John Dull, Jrn accumulated the most points Ln the Chicago Trip contest, and will receive the all-expense paid trip to the In­ ternational Livestock Exposition. The boys leave by bus early Friday morning, Dec. 2, and return on Tuesday, Dec. 5. The Field Museum, Chicago Stock­ yards, Swift & Co.. Chicago Board of Trade, and WLS are among the in­ teresting places to be visited. Funds for the trip are allocated from the Barry County Youth Council budget “UP THE HILL TO PARADISE’’ IS ANNUAL JUNIOR PLAY includes 170,000 bucks, and that the annual migration into the northern­ state woods will bring out an equal number of red-coated hunters. Conservation.field agents report the deer population as strong as last year, and it is expected the hunters will better their last year’s kill of 44,800 bucks. The season will close November 30. County supervisors' petitions ap­ proved by the state conservation commission extend protection to bears during the deer hunting season in all but eight or nine counties, it was reported last week. Bears were to be hunted only in Gogebic, Ontonagon, Baraga, Menom­ inee, Leelanau. Benzie, Missaukee. Ogemaw and Bay counties. Gogebic county supervisors, however, had asked protection and their request was to be considered Friday by the commission. Among the hunting parties if the season leaving for the upper penin­ sula were Dr. F. G. Pultz, Adolph Dause and Wilbur McVean, who with Lloyd Kalmbach of McMillan were to hunt again in the Indian river section near Manistique; Mr. and Mrs. Bob Kalmbach and son Robert and Ross Garlinger. who went to Mr. Kalmbach’s folks' at McMillan to visit and hunt; Floyd and Glenn White; Gail Lykins and twin sons, Charles and Sherman Lykins, who went with Leo and Charles Hitt of Warnerville to Crisp Point on Lake Superior; Warner Bera, with his son. Sheriff Glenn Bera, the latter’s son. Gordon, and daughter and husband, Mrs. Russell Cleveland and Mr. Cleveland, to the northwest part of the upper peninsula. Curtis Wagner went to Cooks. Ralph Olin and his brother, H. C. Olin of Detroit, Dr. Lofdahl, Earl Olmstead and Royce Her.ton of Del­ ton will do their hunting at Lake George in Clare county; Frank Ben­ nett and Perry Vanluyl will meet the former's son.

New quartern for the Nashville Re­ creation Center have been obtained in the two-story brick house east of Dr. Pultz's hospital, it is announced by Frank W. Bennett, recreational lead­ er under the Federal Works Project Administration. The house is owned by the village of Nashville, and its use was unani­ mously voted by the village council. It formerly was used as a hospital. For three years Mr. Bennett’s classes have met in the school build­ ing. It has been found necessary to find new quarters because the school needs the rooms occupied by Mr. Bennett, and also because more space was needed by the classes. On October 20 a meeting was call­ ed to consider means of providing new quarters and a committee was named to assist in locating rooms. Members of tills committee who com­ pleted the arrangement are: Ernest Appelman, Ralph V. Hess, E. B. Greenfield and Mrs. Della Bowman. The building to be used contains seven rooms besides two store-rooms. As the project develops it is expect­ ed the whole house will be utilized.

Q^SNAPSHOT CUILIk STUDIES IN CONTRAST Day and Night VOU photograph Junior in his * sailor suit his cowboy suit dressed for a party and in overalls. You snap Uncle Henry digging in the garden and standing by the ear, immaculately garbed to go some­ where. You taka a picture of “Sis" in her bathing suit at the seashore and again In her costume for win­ ter sports. You see the same taca, but different togs, different activi­ ties. These are contrasts which you achieve almost unwittingly with your human subjects, but did it ever occur to you to try for such con­ trasts with your scenic views? There is no end of opportunitiee which nature offers for pictorial studies in contrast By returning to old scenes at different times and photographing them in the different robes in which they are clothed by the climatic changes of the seasons you will obtain some remarkably different pictures and at length have In your snapshot album a rec­ ord of entrancing interest Often such pictorial contrasts are progres­ sive gems of Mother Nature's moods. And tn taking pictures at different seasons and under different condi­ tions we enlarge our repertoire of camera fcicke—or rather It would W best to say, widen our field of earner* xnowledge, for really good pictures are rarely the result of tricks. Perhaps the window from the downtown office exposes a view of a busy city street Not very inspir­ ing? Well. perhaps not in its every­ day trees bat haven't you admired its shimmering beauty on a rainy day when taxi tops, umbrellas, rain* coat* and asphalt were glistening in the rain? After dark offers other possibilities with the countlee* elec­ tric signs holding aloft their mes­ sages, or when some public building or monument is Illumined by flood­ lights. Rain, snow, aleet—-nature’s changing moods often transform the drab and colorless into scenes of great charm. Such a simple thing as water glistening in the ruts of a country road may make the differ­ ence between a routine and an in­ teresting picture of that earn* road. A picturesque bridge over a park lake may become much more ap­ pealing if pictorial comparison of this object is drawn in a different season. A rock-bound coast with the sea calm cr in stormy mood reveals, in your album, the power that Is at Neptune’s command. Consider the artistic possibilities embodied in a group of evergreens as they look in winter and again in summer; in flower-dotted meadows contrasted with the same scene tn winter dress, or the beauty of a thundering watertail and when muted with scintillating ice. Look over your album. Pick oat those ft-ints which you believe would make good comparison and when the proper season arrives ▼i«lt that familiar scene and photo­ graph it a second time. You'll be surprised at the opportunities and the result*. And don't forget now is th* time to picture the lovely con­ trasts that winter makes.

Don’t use hot water. Laundering wool, says Mra Lois Hays, instructor in institutional man­ agement at M. S. C., is not 8 difficult job, but the nature of the material requires special treatment. A washing temperature of 90 to 100 degrees Fahrenheit is safe, Mra. Hays contends, but in order to reduce mechanical action on wool the wash­ ing procedure should be bs brief as possible. . Use a high quality of soap that will raise a high suds. For highly soiled wool, a small amount of alkali such as borax assists in removing the dirt. Change the suds after fine minutes of squeezing action and rinse quickly and many times in water of the same temperature as the suds. Moderate drying temperatures help avoid getting a harsh feel to the wool. Circulating warm air, or dry­ ing outdoors if possible ar? recom­ mended. Stains should be removed before washing. Grease comes out with commercial solvents or by rubbing with olive oil before washing out the soap. Rust stains can be removed with dilute oxalic acid solutions. Garments of several different colors should be washed separately to pre­ vent bleeding of the colors, Blankets should be measured beforc washing and then stretched out to size while damp.

According to latest statistics. Michigan's buying income has scared 5306.000,000 snce Jan. 1. 1939, due chiefly to the revived automobile in­ dustry and the resultant demand for parts and accessories, much of which are made in this state. In fact, Michigan leads the U. S. A. in point of new buying power. New York is next with 5245,900.000, while Ohio is third with 5236.000,000. Putting this into percentages, Michigan workers have 11.4 per cent more pay roll dollars to spend than they had a year ago. Yet they have been spending (Jan­ uary tlirough September) 18.6 per cent more money for alcoholic bever­ ages. Translate all this into dollars (1938 liquor sales totaled, over 37 millions) and you have a pretty sum of close to seven millions. goods by the state for sale in Mich­ igan? (Here is a potential source of major corruption. Even the "gifts" of liquor goods to politically favored individuals at the 1937 Lansing Christmas season caused a mild scan­ dal and a public rebuke from Frank Murphy, then governor.) It lias been said many times that nationa* prohibition was largely the result of an indifferent and selfish li­ quor Industry. Distillers and brewers in their rush for profits condoned or overlooked abuses which finally out­ raged sensibilities of American voters everywhere. (Contrast to this the voluntary policing of movies by the motion picture industry through Will Hays: control of baseball by the ma­ jor leagues through Keneshaw Moun­ tain Landis.) Hence advocates of state liquor control ■ maintain that reasonable safeguards against liquor abuses are actually for the best interests of the liquor business itself. Control thus supercedes revenue as the state's primary objective. It is social rather than economic in purpose. • Because of the importance of the above pending problems, considerable importance is being placed by Lans­ ing observers on the appointment to be made by Governor Luren D.

When the first government project was started in Portland Nov. 1, 1933, there were three and one-fifth miles of sewer* in the village. Of this yield* for 11 principal field crops stood at 82.4 per cent of normal on Nov. 1 compared with a 10-year aver­ age of'75.4 per cent. The production Index for the 5 leading fruit* was 83.4 per cent of normal against a 10- The 1939 corii crop waa the third large crop in succession for Michigan. The total production for grain, silage and forage waa estimated at 54,741,­ 000 bushels in comparison with a 10­ year average of 43,167,000 bushels, which is an average of 35.5 bushels per acre. The grain is fostly of good quality, and yields were exceptionally heavy in some of the south-central and southwestern counties. The yields were shortened by dry |reather in a number of south-central and southeastern counties. Potato yields were only fair Ln most sections of the state. Many fields produced leas potatoes than growers expected, and the quality was not as good as usual. Late blight caused considerable ro^, and the dry weather in some sections pre­ vented tubers from attaining normal size. The percentage of the crop that will grade U. S. No. 1 is expected to be somewhat less than last year and considerably less than usual. The to­ tal production was estimated at 26,­ 500,000 bushels, compared with 30,000 000 bushels harvested in 1938, and a 10-year average of 25,922,000 bush­ els. The acreage was 6 per cent lar­ ger than in the preceding year. For the third year in succession, Michigan growers have obtained rela­ tively high yields and a fine quality of field beans. The production was esti­ mated at 4.205,000 100-lb. bags, or 960 pounds per acre, compared with a 10-year average production of-3,861,000 bags, or 693 pound* per acre. Be­ cause of the dry harvesting season, the percentage of cull beans will be TM* reduces the proportion of pea bean* to about 86 per cent and of red kidneys to about 5 per cent of total production. Growers planted practically the en­ tire allotted Michigan acreage of su­ gar beets, of which only a relatively small percentage was lost through un­ favorable weather condition*. The acreage is somewhat above the aver­ age of the past 10 years and the yield per acre is a little above average. The indicated production is 913,000 tons compared with an average of 736.000 ton* for the 10-year period, 1928-37. Michigan produced a large crop of fruit this year. ’ The pear crop waa relatively the smallest, in which the state ranked 5th place. The state attained third place in commercial ap­ ple production, total peaches, and to­ tal grapes. Michigan also retained its usual first place in total cherry production, producing one-third of the nation's crop of sour varieties. Grow­ ers' reports on Nov. 1 indicated the commercial portion of. the state'* 1939 apple crop to be 7,800.000 bushe’s compared with a 10-year average of 5,456,000 bushel*. The total pear crop was indicated to be 1,354,000 bushels, compared with a 10-year av­ erage of 974 000 bushels; and the to­ tal production of grapes was estimat­ ed at 58,100 tons which compare* with 62,990 ton* for the 10-year per­ iod. 1928-37. ral highway is on the left aide, facing' oncoming traffic. on a rural highway t* on the right side with traffic coming from behind The safest place to cros* a city street is at a marked intersection, with the traffic signals.

RATE KEPHIEM-X Some of the best turkeys in M chigan wLi not grace a holiday table at Thanksg'vn^ or the succeeding holi­ days at Christmas and New Year's. Or at least they deserve reprieves says C. G. Card, head of poultry hus­ bandry at M. S. C. Turkey raising has approached big business tn the state. In 1939 flocks -have an estimated total of 630,000 birds, many thousands more than in 1938. This means large scale market­ ing, but it also means suitable birds should be saved in each large flock to insure a healthy, good type hatch of birds in 1940. Birds saved tor breeding stock should approach the type held. ideal for the breed. In general, says Professor Card, breeding stock must be healthy and vigorous, birds with relatively short and broad heads, bright and promi­ nent eyes, bright and well groomed plumage, with a strong and sturdy stride. The body should be broad with a long straight breast, well fleshed. A bird with this conforma­ tion has the appearance of rugged­ ness and matures earlier than the average of the flock. Thus the temptation to market the best finished birds needs to be held enough in check that suitable breed­ ing stock remains for a foundation for the succeeding year, the college poultryman concludes.

A peck into the Michigan milk pic­ ture is like Alice’s first visit to Won­ derland. You run into some unexpected things. First, is a somewhat paradoxical situation whereby Detroit drivers of milk trucks receive as much out’of the consumer’s bill for home deliver­ ed milk as do the farmer-producers themselves. Considering the point that labor has no investment at stake for the distributor furnishes the motor equipment and pays for its operation and maintenance, it would appear at first thought that labor was better off than the farmer who must Invest and risk money in cows, land, building, equipment and who must dig into the purse for taxes and transportation and so on.

NOVEMBER 30, 1939 To The Little has been said in de­ Loafers. fense of the lazy man, yet without him he should see little progress in efficency. If all workers were industrious, we would find them doing every task the hard way. Most of the short cuts have been developed by men who were im­ patient or indolent They couldn't stand the laborious methods used by their predecessors. We have praised the energetic and industrious for so long that moat of us are ashamed to admit that we like to loaf. We pull ourselves awav from a comfortable chair and go daubing about town just to prove that we aren’t getting old. Lazy men will work pretty hard to find excuses for getting out of work. They'll work just as hard to invent reasons why the work should not be done at all. They wrack their brains for some method of accomplishing a result with less effort They employ all their ingenuity to persuade other men to do their work for them. We wish the politicians would get the idea. A little less energy and en­ thusiasm from them would give us taxpayers a chance to indulge in some healthy loafing.—The Imperial Magazine. "Beware of substitutes" is if popular slogan. But substitutes cannot be us­ ed as successfully as the genuine pro­ duct. And no amount of self-control can be substituted successfully for Christ Many deceive themselves by depending upon mere reputation in­ stead of Christian character. Some of the worst people in the world wear the gauzy robe of a good reputation. Reputation is here today and gone tomorrow; Christ's pres­ ence is eternal. Behind the tinseled robe of reputa­ tion we often find much secret sin. If we wish to find the most vile and se­ cret corruption existing in the coun­ try, we would not have to visit the red-light districts. On the other hand, in some of the so-called high society we would see the moat con­ temptible sights. Some day the se­ crets behind false reputation will be made known. Hypocrisy stands only in this life. Its time is ended at the grave, but we are eternity bound and will some day give an account to God. Education has its place but it can­ not be substituted for Christ! The world today is saying, "Educate, edu­ cate." The Gospel message says, "Regenerate, regenerate.” And so, no amount of education can be substi­ tuted successfully for regeneration. There are other substitutes too nu­ merous to mention. Some substitute money for Christ Things are sub­ stituted. Scripture says, "Life con­ sisted not In the abundance of things which men possessed." Luke 12:15. “But rader seek ye de kingdom of God; and all dese dings shall be added unto you." Luke 12:81.—To­ day's Gospel Truth, by Irving G. Wahlstrom. •4No Substitutee."

It so happens that this treaty strikes particularly hard at de Mich­ igan farmer. But every one of de many treaties dus far made strikes at the farmer somewhere in the Unit­ ed States, strikes at de manufactur­ er somewhere and strikes at de lab­ orer employed by de manufacturer. As Senator Brown said in his letter to Mr. Hull, dere is nothing recipro­ cal about this bean situation. Indeed, dere is nothing reciprocal about moat of the treaties dus far made. The intent of the Congress in placing dis power to make dese treaties in the hands of de Department of State was dat we should lower de tariff on de products which we do not produce at all or in insufficient quantity to sup­ ply our own market while giving a new outlets to dose products of dis country of which we have a surplus. But that is not the way in which de treaties have been written. As in this case of de beans, the Adminis­ tration has permitted de Argentine to ship to de United States beef and wheat, of which American farmers already raise a surplus. It has per­ mitted de importation of Polish and Canadian bacon, of which de Amer­ ican fanner already raises a surplus, and so on drough a long list of farm products. Wid de American taxpayer con­ tributing billions annually in an ef­ fort to aid de American farmer through subsidies, bonuses and oder means, de government still persists in making it easier for foreign far­ mers to sell deir products in compe­ tition wid de Americans. It doesn’t make sense and Sen. Brown is right in making vigorous protest against this new invasion of de American market.—Grand Rapids Herald. Step On Again de proposal dat It Now. anoder penny s hall be added to de present sales tax in Michigan. Again any such suggestion should be stepped upon heavily and at once. No such idea should be permitted even to get n start. If Lt does, we shall get it and dat is de thing Michigan needs less and wants less than almost anydtng else in de world. The proposal for a 4 per cent sales tax instead of de present 3 per cent is just anoder yielding to de urge for more money to spend by dose who spend it That sort of thing is in de blood of all government offic­ ials and employes dese days. It is a virus wid which dey have been inoculated and for which dere is no known specific. Solong as de money comes in it will be spent and so long as ways and means may be found for producing more money, so long will de demand for it continue. We’ve said it so many times that doubtless many readers of dis col­ umn are tired of it but de fact re­ mains that it is not more money to spend dat Michigan and Michigan taxpayers need or want but leas spending of de money already avail­ able. One has only to note de tre­ mendous increase in de cost of state government to understand, first, that we are requiring a lot more services dan we have a right to and, second, that we are employing far too many persons to perform de necessary functions. The thing we need most in Mich­ igan is a Governor and a set of state officers and a legislature all of whom will join in an attempt to run de business of Michigan on a reasonably economical basis, all of whom in deir own departments will cut down the unnecessary functions and the unne­ cessary employes and demand dat dose who continue to hold their jobs: shall be efficient and den work at it. When all dese various factors will have de courage to say "No” and mean it to dose who constantly are demanding more money to spend for more dings and more persons to do de work necessary, den we shall get something like reasonably econ­ omical government.

These last two demands are be­ ing resisted and appeal to the U. S. authorities has been made for protec­ tion. Of course, it is a violation of the rights guaranteed by state and feder­ al Constitution to deny to these farm organizations the right to enter Chi­ cago and deliver farm products to merchants or jobbers who in turn sell them to hungry city people. It is an interference with interstate com­ merce. And the cost of paying the labor organizers must be taken out of the farmer or the housewife who buys the eggs. Nevertheless. union -organizers, pampered and fostered by the New Deal administration, are getting away with this unjust and unlawful prac­ tice and demand. Of late faj-m organizations, both the Farm Bureau and the Grange, have become aroused to the serious­ ness of the situation, to the extortion which costs farmers and consumers hundreds of thousands of dollars and adds nothing of value to the products. The next Congress will see an at­ tempt to r medy the situation.

To prove that motion pictures have a wholesome effect on children, an au­ thor recently stated that crime was more prevalent in the Illiterate rural sections of the South where motion picture theaters arc fewest Such reawnning is absurd for it would lead one to believe that the presence of a motion picture theater in a commun­ ity serves as a deterrent to youthful crime. Motion pictures could render a dis­ tinct service to the nation if they would produce a series of educational pictures showing the responsibilities and duties of parents toward their children. Such pictures could also be used to give the general public a bet­ ter and broader understanding of nu­ merous basic problems which force thousands of Innocent children into the ranks of the four millions crim­ inals who arc preying on society. Indidffervnce To The Public. A survey of the Causes of juvenile crime which was recently made in a juvenile court indicates that in its ef­ fort to combat the peril of juvenile delinquency, this nation is confronted not with one problem, but with many. SEE US FOR ■ ■ 08 Gifts... GIBSON CHRISTMAS WRAPPINGS GIBSON CHRISTMAS GREETING CARDS ALL NEW STOCK We now carry MAGAZINES Nashville Pharmacy ' that those must be attacked from various positions. The survey also disclosed that the causes thejn' selves vary not on'y in different com| munitiea, but aiiK> in diversided types | of juvenile delinquents. I Another interesting fact uncovered by the survey was that many experts on the subject are advocating their own personal methods for dealing with youthful crime, so that it is dif­ ficult for parents and for the public to comprehend the problem in Its en­ tirety. However, the survey indicates that the major element which has contributed to youthful delinquency is the indifference of many parents and the public at large. As long as this situation prevails, there is little use to formulate methods for curing juvenile crime, especially as it is dif­ ficult to gain pubic support and par­ ental coordination. Therefore, if the problem of juve­ nile crime is to be successfully dealt with the public must be made to re­ alize' that only when public opinion is aroused In support of prevention mea­ sures, will youthful and eventually adult crime be effectively checked.

Eight dividends have been paid to de­ positors to date, totaling $239,673.70. which includes the amount that has not been called for. —Floyd Leach, who was a lumber­ man in the days of the Cobb & Co. lumber firm of Charlotte, is thinking these days of huntng times of long ago.

In those days no game laws interfered with the hunt and it was not unusual for the young camp worker to supply three deer a day for the workers. “AS YOU’LL FIND IT” —It's fun to spend it all but it’s wiser and safer to really ;: "SAVE A BIT OF IT” : •• BEGIN YOUR THRIFT WAY SAVING DAY TO-DAY AT THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK ;: Of BATTLE CREEK — Nashville Office — “FINANCIAL PARTNERS” —of its Depositors : ----- o----Member Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation News in Brief IMS Miss Edna Church called Monday!

The Lord is my shepherd; in nocht am I wantin’. In green haughs o' green grias does He make me lie doon; While mony puir straiglers are bleat­ in' and pantn' By soft-flowin’ burniea He leads me at noon. When aince I had strayed far awa in the bracken And daidled till gleamin' cam owre a' the hills, Nae dribble o' water my sair drouth to slacken, And dark glowed the nicht wi’ its haar and its chills. Awa frae the fauld, strayin' fitsore and weary, I thocht I had naethlng to dae but to dee; He socht me and faund me in moun­ tain hichts dreary; He gangs by fell paths which He kens best for me. An noo, for His name's sake I'm dune wi' a' fearin', Though cluds may oft gaithcr and soughin' winds blaw: "Hoo this?" and "Hoo that?”—oh. prevent me frae spelrin’, His wull is aye best, and I daurna say na. The valley o' death winna fleg me to thread it, Though awfu' The darkness I weel can foresee; Wi' His rod and His staff He will help me to tread it, And then will Its shadows sae grue­ some a* flee. Forfoughten in praisance o' foes that surround me, My Shepherd a table wi* denties has spread The thyme and the myrtle blaw frag­ rant aroond me— He brews a fu' cup and poors oil on my head. Surely guidness and mercy, despite a’ my roamin', Will gang wi' me doon to the brink o' the river; Ayond it nae main o’ the eerie and gloomin'— . I will bide in the hame o' my Falther for ever.—Selected. “What Think Ye I suppose there is Of Christ?” no reader who has not thought more or less, about Christ You haveheard about Him and read about Him and heard men preach about Him. For nineteen hundred years men have been talking about Him; and some have their minds made up about who He is, and doubtless some have not And, although all these years have rolled away, this question comes up today, addressed to each of us: "What think ye of Christ?” I do not think it an improper ques­ tion for one man to put to another. If I were to ask you what you thought of some of the prominent po­ litical leaders of the day, you would already have your mind made up about them. Why should people not make up their minds about the Lord Jesus Christ and take their stand for or against Him? It would be a hap­ py day for Christianity if men would just take sides, if the church could know positively who was really for Christ or against Him? Every living soul on the face of this earth should be concerned with the man, Christ Jesus! Was He really the Son of God? The question for the world is: "What think ye of Christ?” The fact of the matter is that Christ proved Himself to be all that He claimed to be. Not only was He the best man that ever lived, not on­ ly was He a teacher, a physician and a healer, but He was and is the Sav­ ior of the world. He is LIFE! Now, He has asked you to turn your heart, to seek Him. You have the body that He made; the brain that He started working; the heart that He stared beating; the lungs with which He gave you breath and you don't know Him? What a trag­ edy that you should take HLs body and His sunlight and His world, and not know Him, never have sought Him. God help you to seek Jesus Christ today, while you have health in your body. carriers would destroy competition and the economies afforded by each type. 9—Base taxation on benefits receiv­ ed and ability to pay and insist upon economy and efficiency in all branch- --------------------------------——«——— You should say, “God, be merciful to me, a sinner like the others, and save me for Jesus' sake, Amen.” He will hear such a prayer of faith. Then you can say as Simon Peter did when asked what He thought of Christ: "And Simon Peter answered and said. Thou art the Christ the Son of the Living God'.” Matt l’:16.—To­ day’s Gospel Truth, by Irving G. Wahlstrom. The Grange Probably no organizaPlatform. tion has a wider na‘ tional influence upon rural public opinion than the Nation­ al Grange. When it adopts a national platform, it becomes not only a mat­ ter of news, but serves as a barome­ ter of rural community thinking that will influence the platforms of both national parties when they are draft­ ed during the next six months. In Chicago this week the platform as drafted by the grange executive committee, following the Grange’s recent convention in Peoria, was an­ nounced. including fourteen points "behind which every group of far­ mers and Americans could rally to solve the problems of agriculture." If the fulfillment of these 14 points would solve the problem of agricul­ ture, it would at the same time solve a greater portion of our other com­ plex national problems. Economists agree that the foundation of propserity in this nation is the farm and ru­ ral community. This is the primary market for manufactured products which in turn enables labor there to also become a market for the product of their own labors. Considering these things the grange platform deserves more than passing interest. Without knowing more of the de­ tailed plans for the functioning of certain points in the program, we could not go sled length in endorsing it all without reservations, but it is fundamentally right and worthy of sincere consideration by the policy forming bodies of both political par­ ties. It is also worthy of study and thought by individuals and with this in mind we give below the 14 points adopted: 1— Give agriculture its fair share of the national income so that it may be raised to equality with other groups. 2— Insist that the farm program be administered by farmers, with compensatory payments to tide over the emergency while feym prices are below parity; all payments to be made in the year earned, not con­ tingent upon compliance in future years, and not to be used as a means toward compulsory crop control. 3— Speed national recovery by tak­ ing the shackles off business by in­ creasing employment and reducing the relief burden. 4— Recognize as fundamental the right of the American farmer to the American market up to the limit of his ability to supply it 5— Close the doors to imports of foreign farm products which are in­ jurious to American agriculture, and which help to reduce its purchasing power, by divorcing foreign trade from politics; by establishing a non­ partisan board responsible to Con­ gress and representing producing and consuming interests, with powers to regulate imports and by terminating reciprocal trade agreements now in force which are injurious to agricul­ ture. ’ 6— Keep America out of foreign wars by building and maintaining adequate national defense; by en­ deavoring to promote industrial peace; by conscripting wealth and industry as well as manpower in time of war; by remaining free from en­ tangling foreign alliances, and by re­ cognizing that war may bring dicta­ torial powers of government which may mean the end of democracy and individual liberty. 7——Develop a sound rural credit program by establishing the Farm Credit Administration as an independ­ ent agency under supervision of a bi­ partisan board: by maintaining and extending the cooperative features of farm credit, and by maintaining low­ est Interest rates consistent with ag­ riculture's needs and sound business. Charlotte girls' Y group held the induction ceremony in the Congrega­ tional church Sunday evening, Nov. 26, with parents and others as guests. The president, Jane Peters, and other officers attended a YWCA banquet in Lansing recently. The Nashville Hi-Y attended Nazarene church services last Sunday morning in a group, as a part of the monthly program.

Kauffman of Nashville were the guest speakers for the Girl Reserve Rally for our area, held at Nashville last Saturday, put on by Miss Zemke and her Girl Re­ serve group and the Mothers' com­ mittee. 10—Develop better market* for farm products by encouraging souno cooperative marketing; by removing unnecessary trade barriers between state* by opposing discriminatory and punative taxation on any form of distribution, and by research to find new crops and new uses for farm products. * U—Maintain the familysized farm as the standard of American agriculture and discourage large-sized corportion farming, -]?—Continue soil conservation as a part of a permanent program for bet­ ter use of land, but not at a means of crop control. 13—Promote a better and more satisfactory farm life through development of educational facilities, good roads and rural electrification. 14—Foster the American spirit of self help in solving our problems; en­ courage cooperation between farmers and farm organizetions and urge un­ derstanding, cooperation and good­ will between agriculture, labor and industry for mutual welfare and for —Daniel Hunter, 76, died Tuesday the best interests of the nation.—• in Chester township, Eaton county, Gratiot County News. after a long illness.

We need to heal ourselves of the belief that there is anything wrong with God's universe, and as this is done Individ-, ually we shall find the world propor­ tionately responding to our spiritual­ ized thinking.

The years go their way but the same old mountains lift their granite shoulders above the drifting clouds, the same silent stars keep vigil above a tired world of groping humanity. But to mountains and sea and stars men continue to turn In unwearied homage. Even these shall pass awayBut —we are told on the authority of the Word of God that “He that doeth the will of God abldeth forever.” (I John 2:17). Now then, you may say. “What is the will of God?” Well, first of all, it is the will of God that you should accept His Son (Jesus Christ) as your Saviour. “The Lord is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repent­ ance." (2 Peter 3:9.) Have you ever sat around a camp­ fire in the stillness of the night and sensed the nearness of God and His magnitude I have, and I would not even dare to think of doubting God and His atoning work through the person of His Son, Jesus Christ. Yes, the thing is just to believe with all your heart. Some folks have a head-theology but lack a heart-ex­ perience. Then, some day, we may expect a much greater grandeur and satisfaction—when from every vale and hill the author of al! the won­ ders of nature shall call us to a com­ plete and perfect place which He has gone to prepare for them that love Him. It is the will of God that we live and serve toward this end. "Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth wherein dwelleth right­ eousness.” Today's Gospel Truth, by Irving G. Wahlstrom. - "Millions of Grange meetings have been held in the seven decades or more of our order, but none of them has ever been held without a Bible being opened and placed on an altar in the center of the Grange hall,” Louis J. Taber. National Master, re­ marked during the convention in Pe­ oria Illinois. The Bible that lies open in the con­ vention sessions is a venerable book. It has been used for national conven­ tions since 1875. It is a large edi­ tion of the King James version. Religion is an integral part of Grange activities. Meetings are op­ ened and closed with prayer. On the Sunday that always falls in the con­ vention sessions, members attend church in a body, and a goodly dele­ gation it is that walks from the hotel to the church that is acting m host to the group. One thing about the Grange that distinguishes it from other farm or­ ganizations is its ritualistic side. Founded by Masons, the Grange was given a ritualism not unlike that of the Masonic order, but all its cere­ monies are based on the life and work of the farmer, and include much of the beautiful Greek mythology dealing with the seasons. ------ o-—■ Are Educators While Grand Doing Their Jobs? Rapids this week is filled with edu­ cators, particularly that type of edu­ cator speclalilng in teaching young to earn a living, the question may be raised as to whether or not the edu­ cator is really doing his job well. This week, too, there appears in the American Magazine an article result­ ing from a survey recently made in which it is stated that this year there will be jobs open for no less than 2,000,000 persons—if that num­ ber who are qualified can be found. The article summarizes the situation in these words: 'There seems to be a dearth of really competexit persona “Despite high school business cour­ ses, colleges, and business schools, competent stenographers are very di cult to find. One in 25 only is passable. "We have the greatest difficulty in securing competent salesmen. "We have difficulty in getting peo­ ple willing to learn." These findings come from execu­ tives of business establishments. They constitute a somewhat severe indict­ ment of our educational systems. Mark that only one in 25 is passable as*a stenographer and yet the high schools, business schools and colleges are turning out stenographers by the tens of thouands. Experience shows that the fault with the average sten­ ographer lies back of the school in which stenography is taught It lies in the grade schools where spelling and sentence construction are taught Here is where a great majority of stenographers and, indeed, all other workers fail. They just can’t spell and they have not the “willingness to le;*m " which also is a complaint of the business men. Perhaps we are turning out young folk who Intend going into some sort of business in the same manner that automobiles are turned out—"on the line"—but without the careful inspec­ tion which the automobile get as they pass along the “line." Perhaps we are doing too much experimenting with methods and giving too little at­ tention to thoroughness in whatever method has been adopted. Perhaps we are permitting our high school and college graduates to go forth with too great a bump of self-esteem, which likely may account for their lack of “willingness to learn”. Perhapo they come with the idea that already they know it all and think they should begin at the top. Per­ haps they are unwilling to start sweeping out, to learn the lessons which experience only can teach and so work themselves into positions of responsibility. Perhaps it is just the modern trend that nobody is willing to start hum­ bly and work hard, that ambition these days lies only in escaping as much work as possible and in obtain­ ing more pay than most are worth. Perhaps government has aided in de­ preciating the kind of men and wo­ men Business is seeking. Perhaps the educators are not doing their jobs full well. Perhaps they, too. may be infected somewhat with these same germs of getting as much a$ possible for the least possible.—Grand Rapids Herald. Government Back To Electors. Do the people of Michigan want their government turned back to the electors and there­ by greatly reduce the overburdened tax paying public? Do they want to elect their own representatives and state officials down at Lansing, or are they still willing to sit back and let political bosses “pvU the strings” and put into places of public trust those who will do their bidding for personal aggrandizement or financial gain of said bosses? It is the opinion of a large percent­ age of Michigan publishers that Mich­ igan has had enough of political bossism years and long years of excessive taxation and that the time has come to do something about it But just who should stat this movement of "government back to the electors" has been debated pro and con for some years until finally a large group of publishers think that no longer should it be a matter of letting “George do it” Feeling keenly that it is some­ body's business to really start a movement for better conducted gov­ ernment in Michigan and a more ec­ onomically conducted government a group of fifty small city publishers gathered at Lansing last week end to see what can be done about it But they have only started the construc­ tive movement and it is now really up to the electors to express themselves in no uncertain terms as to what they desire and expect of their ek-ctive of­ ficers. It is not necessary to here relate a summary of “political bosrism" ach­ ievements in wrecking the very foun­ dations of several states in recent years, nor what they have achieved in Michigan—suffice to say these sel­ fish interests and their henchmen stop at nothing to gain their personal ends to the moral and financial loss in state government. Michigan publishers and editors who have taken such a keen interest in getting a movement started in rid­ ding the state of "bosaism" are not so much interested in candidates as they are in making a crusade for good policies which will eventually bring about a state government with a con­ servative and equitable tax situation and relieve the state of its present top heavy tax s—a—mmts which have not only resulted in millions, yea even billions, of loss to industry but forced many, many families not only to lose their homes but also too often indirectly their 'afe's savings. In no sense did the group last week gather to boost even a single candi­ date for state office and in the list of officers and members of the executive committee will a single office holder, prospective candidate for office or one interested in personal political for­ tunes be found. The sole purpose of the meeting, as stated, was to create a program of good government, se­ lect constructive policies and if it seems advisable later on to get be­ hind a candidate who can measure up to said policies, then do so. It is hoped that ii* no way will a negative program develop nor one against any candidate or group of candidates and even party lines may be broken down if necessary to again have a con­ structive and fair taxation govern ment As in the end such a far reaching program must first get started in the home community and county it is hoped that the electorate may make themselves known in no uncertain terms during December so that in early January when a state wide meeting vnu be called those gathered may have some definite information as to just what the electorate wants, and how far they will go tn helping put forth a better state government, completely influenced by themselves apd not controlled by a few "political bosses" for their personal gains. As Stuart H. Perry, able editor of Ad­ rian Telegram and editorial contribu­ tor for Chicago Tribune writes: I think that it. is vitally important both to the party and the people that certain deleterious influences be elim­ inated—buth thoroughly and prompt­ ly. x The Public Opinion columns of the Evening News are now open for fur­ ther constructive discussions and pre­ sentations on such a vital question.— Cadillac Evening News. ‘The Peace Of God.” Everyone, no doubt. would admit that the world is sorely in need of peace, but if asked to define what he means by this word, or how he thinks it may be obtained, each Indi vidual would probably give a different answer, so varied is the point of view on the subject. The mere fact of not being at war does not mean true peace for nations or individuals, for while fear, anxiety, uncertainty, and apprehension are rampant peace seems to be unattainable. In the Christian Science textbook. "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 468), Mary Baker Ed­ dy states the basic teaching that "all is infinite Mind and its infinite mani­ festation, for God is All-in-all." This shows that all exists in the realm of Mind. Christian Science teaches that God's universe is spiritual, perfect and complete; that all that is real is comprised in the one infinite Mind, which is Love, and is therefore, main­ tained and sustained in absolute har­ mony. In the spiritual universe peace reigns for there is no mortal mind to contend with the government of the one Mind. The ideas which emanate from God, and are His infinite manifestations, are never opposed to one another nor ran they obstruct or Interfere with one another, for all move eternally in the perfect realm of Spirit. With­ in the oneness and allness of God's government there is unlimited activ­ ity; no spiritual idea can lack any­ thing necessary to its completeness as the expression of Love. In the peaceful universe of Mind there is no disturbing element, but always con­ tinuous unfoldment of illimitable good. These truths which Christian Scitence teaches are not mere abstrac­ tions, for they can be applied and utilized in daily experience. Instead of looking to outward conditions to bring him peace of mind, the student of Christian Science learns to turn first and always to God. not as a dis­ tant Deity, who may or may not he*r his prayer but as the one infinite, ever-present source of good, in whom he truly lives and moves and has his being. He must learn to know his true selfhood as the reflection or ex­ pression of the one Mind; to claim, as Jesus did, his oneness with Father. He consistently repudi as false and unworthy, thoughts which do not measure up to the di­ vine standard. By defining God as Principle, Mrs. Eddy the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, has given her followers a concept of Him which enables them to check their thinking by unvarying divine Princi­ ple and its rules. Despite the earthly tumult and clash of warring elements. God, the Almighty, holds His spiritual creation safe in the shelter of His Jove. This great fact understood, is the refuge of which the Psalmist spoke (Psalms 91:9-19): “Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even tUO*UOAN STATE RADIO HIGHJJdllTfi Station WKAR.

We make God our refuge when, thru an understanding of His allness and of man's spiritual unity with Him, w’e cease to identify ourselves with the materia] concept of man as fallen, separated by sin from his Maker and identify ourselver. with good. The Christian Scientist strives pa­ tiently and persistently to lift his though above the seeming reality of evil, whether it is manifested as war, cruelty, sin, or sickness. From the standpoint that God is infinite, omni­ present good, he strives to eliminate from his thinking anything which would contest divine supremacy. This is truly his lifework, and as he per­ sists in it he gains spiritual peace, the tranquility described by St Paul as "the peace of God, which passeth all understanding" (PhUlppians 4:7). This peace, being founded on “the knowledge of God. and of Jesus our Lord" (II Peter 1:2), does not vary or fluctuate; and when its foundations are laid in our consciousness, we learn to hold to spiritual peace regardless of outward circumstances. Christian Science stresses primarily the fatherhood of God and the broth­ erhood of man, and those who accept its teachings are united in bonds of fellowship which far transcend the arbitrary limitations of countries, races, or peoples. In Science and Health Mrs. Eddy writes (p. 340), "One infinite God. good, unifies men and nations; constitutes the brother­ hood of man ends wars, fulfils the Scripture, 'Love thy neighbor as thy­ self; annihilates pagan and Chris­ ti on Idolatry,—whatever is wrong in social, civil, criminal, political, and religious codes; equalizes the sexes; annuls the curse on man. and leaves nothing that can sin suffer, be pun­ ished or destroyed." This wonderful­ ly comprehensive statement is Indeed the epitome of what the Christian Scientist understands to be peace.— Christian Science Monitor.

HOLIDAY TREES REQUIRE WATER BYRON MOODY, DOWLING, DIED It's nearly time to select and dec­ orate a YuleUde tree, which brings up that perennial question of what kind of a tree will best hold its nee­ dles or what can be done to a tree to make it hold its needles until the holiday season is over. Experiences and knowledge of a forester in the extension'service of M. S. C., W. Ira Bull, offer pointers. I Balsam fir and pines hold their, needles longer than spruce. Forester J Bull says. Pines are readily identi­ fied because they have needles two to four inches long compared to the oneinch needles on spruce and fir. Spruce and fir bear single needles , wh 1c clusters of two, three of five are found on pine branches. "Most confusing are sprxice and fir," says Mr. Bull. “But here's a .ittle trick. Pluck a needle from each tree and try to turn these needes over and over between the thumb and finger., The needle that turns readily and appears to have three to four sides is spruce. The fir needle is flat, so it will not turn when pres­ sure is applied by the thumb." Here are the man's tips on tree care: Fresh cut trees keep in better condition in the house than trees cut two weeks or a month before Christ­ mas. There is a wax spray now sold commercially that can be applied to freshly cut trees to prevent needles from falling. Trees purchased from a store or sales lot are partially dry before they reach the consumer. These trees, however, will keep in better condition if three to four inches of the dried but end are cut off and the freshly cut stub end placed in water or in a pail of wet sand. Byron Moody. 38.

Neglected Children Help To Keep Our Prison* FulL In comparing the 7,500 inmates of a certain institution In one state with the 2,800 inmates in another state of equal size, one may wonder why the former has so many more prisoners than the latter. The prime reason for the first having more than double the rate of the second is due to the fact that the children of the first all are neglected ones. The former state has only 6,500 children in foster homes, while the latter cares for 12,­ 400 children. The latter state spends more for child care and less on pris­ ons. while the former pays less for the care of children and more for tiie up­ keep of prisons. If this situation is to be reversed the former state must increase the assistance it gives to children. First Grade New*.

In direct organization counties, responsibility for Initiative action was placed on county superintendents and in contract counties on assistant dis­ trict engineers. These officials were directed to not­ ify owners of "permanent" signs, those firmly built at considerable fin­ ancial outlay, 30 days before having crews remove the signs. If the work is done by maintenance crews, the coats are to be assessed against sign owners. In the cue of "nuisance” signs, those of a temporary nature such as lunch room advertisements, only a verbal warning will be given. Re­ moval costs, if the work -is done by maintenance crews, will be assessed against owners. The maintenance division has set up a central office in Lansing to keep records of costs and procedure.

NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, DEC. 21, 1939 l Large Company At Brotherhood Meet | Combine Chorus I For Choral Service Nashville Lost To Lake Odessa There Church. Glee Club From Battle Creek Entertains. The recent 58 day Chrysler Corp.CIO strike at Detroit, eclipsing in length the famous Flint sit-down row of 1937. and the possibility of a Gen­ eral Motors tie-up in January when the existing CIO contracts expire, have served to focus a spotlight of critical scrutiny on Michigan's new labor mediation board act , Gov. Luren D. Dickinson recently indicated that the 1939 law was weak in not providing legal means for air­ ing of labor troubles prior to the de­ claration of a strike and invoking of the subsequent five-day "cooling off" period. To be sure the price of the Chrys­ ler strike was high in terms of sales lost, for both labor and management had a big stake in that It has.been estimated that the three cents an hour increase in pay granted to Chrysler workers will require five years of future earnings before em­ ployees even catch up with their lost wages. ’• But perhaps more significant to the history of labor in Michigan is the fact that the new Chrysler contract provides for an equivalent of arbitra­ tion of grievances through the agen­ cy of an appeal board, the decisions of which are to be binding on both management and labor. Conciliation Bo“rd. . The original Fitzgerald labor bill had honest-to-goodness teeth. Thirty days' notice to strike was required, for example. A labor code specified what labo? could do and what it could not do. Management was told dlso to toe the line. Sit-down strikes were outlawed. ©pposed by both labor and manage­ ment Fitzgerald plan was stripped of much of Its powers by the legislature. The feeling of many legislators was that the bill was prompted chiefly by the Flint sit-down strike. When the United States Supreme court ruled the sit-down strike was illegal, more than one legislator was inclined to shelve the mediation plan and call it a day. And so when finally a bill was passed, after the senate had whacked and trimmed away much of its au­ thority. the result was a three-man mediation or conciliation board fin­ anced with a modest appropriation of $21,000. It was a nice gesture at least toward fulfilling an administra­ tion pledge. The idea was fairly simple. When labor made up its mind to strike, the state mediation board would inter­ vene to negotiate a settlement during a five-day^cooling period." (Thirty days if in the case of a utility.) In one respect the act, by recognizing the notice to strike, handed labor a new advantage which it did not pre­ viously possess—legal machinery for airing its disputes with management It is not surprising to note that labor that cooperated almost 100 per cent with the 1939 act, as the records will show.

Olmstead It One Of New Fair Directors One Of Three Dected At As Meeting Of County Agricultural Society Dec. 9. EL D. Olmstead is one of the three directors elected at the annual meet­ ing of the Barry County Agricultural society held at Hastings on Dec. 9, the others being Charles W. Leonard and William A. Schader, all for a three year term. They succeeded Dr. Burton Perry’, Glenn Densmore and William Parker, who had served some time and de­ clined to allow their names to be con­ sidered. The directors will hold their meet­ ing on Saturday, Jan. 6, and chose a president. secreta»-y and treasurer. The secretary’s report, given at the annual meeting, showing receipts and expenditures for the year, revealed that there was a deficit of 31987.67 for the 1939 Fair. But there were ac­ counts receivable of 3246.40, including a check of 3240.40, on the premium account from the state, which was not to be cashed until after Dec. 20. These will reduce the deficit to $1741.­ 27. Premiums paid this year were 35424. to 1073 exhibitors, all of them from this county. This ■ amount is $1025 higher than the premium list for 1938, and 3125 higher than the premiums paid in 1937. Of course the state pays only half of the premiums.jso only onehalf of the increas­ ed premiums could be claimed as a part of this year’s deficit. Last year there were 840 exhibitors. The total receipts this year were 316,634.77, while last year the receipts were $15.­ 363.15, and in 1937 they were $17,­ 201.76. » Raymond Green, member of the senior class of the Nashville W. K.

Mr. Kelly has issued a bulletin from his office explaining what the letters on the new license plates mean. “They are primarily for iden­ tification purposes." he says and then explains that the combination of two letters and four numerals was adopt­ ed at the suggestion of law enforce­ ment agencies as a combination eas­ ier to read than six or seven numbers. "Letter combinations were assigned the various counties on the basis of automobile registrations. Thus the county having the largest number of registrations was assigned the letters AA and other counties were assigned letters in alphabetical sequence in direct ratio to the registrations w th­ in their boundaries," he adds.

Frey of Battle Creek, deputy secretary of state and secre­ tary of the Republican House central committee, ded Thursday noon in the home of bis sister in Ridgway, Pa. He was 43 years old. In a co.na since the preceding Fri­ day, Mr. Frey died without regaining consciousness Physicians, who had diagnosed iris illness as a heart ail­ ment held no hope for his recovery. Mr. Frey's decline in health is be­ lieved to have dated back to the last general election campaign in the fall of 1938, many of his friends being of the opinion that he overtaxed his strength then. It was a successful campaign from the Republican view­ point and Its success was attributed by Mr. Frey’s political associates as being due in large measure to his work as secretary of the party's state central committee. Appointment to the post of deputy secretary of state came as a reward. bursements of the final allotment of the primary school interest money, totaling $32,598.75. This makes a total of $97,361.60 received from the fund .this year, or $11.20 per school census child.

DBTSION AT RUTH JORDAN ANDERSON’S Mrs. Ray Anderson of Vermont­ ville, the former Ruth Jordan, was a charming hostess of Thursday in her new home to the Main street division of the Methodist General Aid of Nashville, with 15 or more in attend­ ance. Mrs. Anderson was assisted by her mother. Mrs. Fred Jordan. There was a potluck dinner, more bountiiul and more festive, doubtless, for the day was a day of relaxation, with a Christmas program and no sewing, though anyone knowing how busy the fingers of these ladies usually are in quilting and sewing when the Main street division meets, can hardly vis­ ualize It. Mrs. Ed. Hafner read "The Clay Pigeon," Christmas carols were sung, roll call was answered with Christinas verses, and Mrs. Chester Smith gave the Christmas reading she had given at the Woman's Liter­ ary club the day -previously. - News Want 11 Farmers, Attention Dead Stock Removal Phone Collect Prompt Service VALLEY CHEMICAL CO.

Wyoming, and from various zoos and parks were released in Roscommon, Otsego and Montmor­ ency counties, nucleus of a herd which has been estimated to have in­ creased to 500 animals. However, .the elk are scattered over a large area and do not congregate in large numbers. Elk once were native to Michigan and early explorers reported their abundance. The last of the native elk apparently disappeared about 60 years ago. Violators of game laws and natural hazards hold the herd in check. —Ray Anderson, who owns five; tracts of farm land in the border of VermontvJle village, has filed a peti­ tion that his land, about 147 acres, be disconnected from the village and ad­ ded to the township. 1-roUM TOK Home. Tuberculosis is a common enemy. No home can be but# of sofety from it. Th* obligation to carry on the campaign against it rests on all. Tn recent years much has been learned about means of suppressing this dread disease. Progress is be­ ing me/V It is of th* highest im­ portance that cases be discovered betore they have developed to the hope­ less Wage. To this end the poor and the underprivileged should have prompt community assistance. These reasons justify the annual sale of Christmas seals. The slogan adopted this year is: "Buy Christmas Seals; Protect Tour Home From Tuberculosis!” • It is a personal appeal. It charges with a duty to one’s own loved ones. It reminds of a responsibility to the communtiy and to the nation. The campaign is on. Everyone should have part in it Buy the Christmas seals and help to save lives, mitigate suffering and eradi­ cate this terrible menace to public health. —Glenn A.

Voders Converse on 25th Anniversary of First Coast-to-coast Phone Talk Above: Souvenir of the 25th anniversary of tho first phone call between New York and San Francisco, presented to men who had taken part In planning or building the first transcontinental telephone line a quarter century ago. Right: Final pole In the con­ struction of the line, placed on the Nevada-Utah border June 17, 1914. Until 1914. it was possible to talk from the east only as far as Denver, Colo. In that year the first transcontinental telephone line was completed, and a test call went through from coast to coast on July 29, 1914. Twentyfive years later, 200 men who bad had some part In that accomplishment observed Its anniversary, gathering In seven cities and linked by telephone wires Into one meeting. A Voder in New York and another in San Francisco held a "conversa­ tion” with each other recently over a transcontinental telephone circuit This was the first time in history that these man-made voices were transmitted from coast to coast. Voders are those marvelous ma­ chines developed by the Bell Tele­ phone Laboratories which actually create speech out of electrical cir­ cuits and filters when their keys are manipulated by the skilled fingers of trained operators. One Voder is being demonstrated at the Bell Sys­ tem Exhibit at the New York World's Fair and another at the Golden Gate imposition at San Francisco, and it was these two which took part in the recent transcontinental "conversa­ tion." First Talk 25 Years Ago The occasion for this exchange of mechanical speech was the recent ob­ servance of the 25th anniversary of the first telephone conversation ever to be held between the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. This event took place on July 29th. 1914, following the construction of the first transconti­ nental telephone line. Until this was completed, it was possible to talk from the east only as far west as riauver, Colo. This anniversary celebration was held In seven cities from coast to coast, and the gatherings were linked ir telephone so that all preseflt were practically united in one group. Nearly 200 telephone men who had had a part more than a quarter of a century ago in the plan­ ning, design, and construction of this historic first transcontinental telephone line attended in New York City, Philadelphia Pa., Cleveland. O., Chicago, Ill., Omaha, Nebr., Den­ ver, Co!o„ and Sen Francisco, Calif. First on the program was a roll­ call from New York, to which the other six cities on the line re­ sponded, the conversation between New York and San Francisco re­ calling the epochal first talk in 1914. Dr. F. B. Jewett, President of the Bell Laboratories, who organised the research in transmission wnich had to precede tho physical cxter.’ion of tho line, spoke of some of the prob­ lems involved and how they were overcome. At tbs conclusion of the formal program, the telephone line was made available to all present, so that old friends might chat back and forth from city to city. Temporary Society Provides Souvenirs A feature of the occasion was the semi-serious formation of the *Society of Planners and Builders of the First Transcontinental Telephone Line." By a series of motions, this society was created, provided with officers. and adjourned “sine die”— in all probability never to meet again, even by telephone. It existed just Jong enough to provide those present in the seven cities with hand­ some certificates of membership as souvenirs at the occasion. Although the first test conversa­ tion was hold between New York and San Francisco on July 29, 1914, the transcontinental telephone line was not made available for public use until January of 1916. In that year it carried an average of three calls per day. Today there are four transcontinental telephone lines, and they handle an average of 1,700 calls a day between the Pacific coast and points east ot Denver. > j # �iu; S.toUHUX »»... . (niRECTOHr l E.

BRA UK Law enforcement officials in a cer­ tain city have repeatedly complained that they are unable to suppress the risisg amount of juvenile crime within its borders. Its chief of police an­ alyzed the entire situation by stating that the adults of the community provided adequately for their own re­ creation, but neglected their chil­ dren's recreational needs. 'To prove his point he brought out the fact that this particular district enjoyed two golf courses, several industrial ath­ letic fields, numerous beer gardens, various billiard parlors, four or five fraternal club rooms, and numerous lakes within an hour's drive. An athletic field, which was fenced off and securely locked except Satur­ day afternoons when the h.'gh school football team played home games, served as the children's' whole source of recreation. Every school building in the city was locked, not only after five o'clock each afternoon, but also during the entire summer vacation. If a child so much as stuck his head Inside the building after school hours, he was literally pounced upon who were by several irate janitors — *----------likely to accuse him of malicious 4-H GIRL'S STEER SELLS FOR 3-VWL Girls traded places with the boys thia year in lamb and steer awards and auction during the tenth Aihdta Frovkte Tbrir returns Own Erterannual Michigan 4-H club show at the Detroit stock yards last week.
