Carr of the Ingham county circuit court holding Michigan's so-called “fair trade" to be unconstitutional. Although the court opinion affect­ ed only the 1937 statute covering pe­ troleum and bakery products, it indi­ rectly casts a shadow over the 1939 milk price-fixing act, which is al­ ready under judicial scrutiny. This law is now in litigation seeking to test the right of the state to invade private Industry in the ostensible in­ terest of uie public welfare. Judge Carr’s opinion will echo in the 1941 session of the state leg 8­ ' lature. For if there was anything certain it is the likelihood that retail forces in the state will gird again for battle over fair trade legislation. The past two sessions have been battle scenes, and the 1941 round will be no exception. What is a’l the shooting about any- But Michigan’s constitution is a different document. It is being free­ ly forecast in Lansing that the new milk price-fixing law will be declared unconstitutional. Except for the point of public health. Judge Carr’s legal reasoning would seemingly ap­ ply also to the matter of milk prices. NASHVILE, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, JAN. 4,1940 NUMBER 27. l “Fea»t Of Light* Here New Year* Eve Edith Park* Write* Again From Africa Choir Of Vermontville And Meth­ odist Choir At M. E. Church. The Nashville Methodist church was beautifully decorated m blue and silver with dozens of lighted blue tapers, for the. '"Feast of Lights" presented by the Vermontville Con­ gregational choir and the choir of the local church. Sunday night With the exception of a dimly lighted cross at the front, only can­ dles were used in the auditorium. A blue holder, containing twenty blue candles, gave light to the choir from the rear, augmented by tall white candelabras on either side. Blue tap­ ers burned in a long blue bolder, the entire length of the altar rail In front of the rail was the nativity scene in miniature with the Christ candle all placed on a low table. Fir branches trimmed the steps, with bas­ kets of fir and poinsetttas on either side of the platform. The program was opened by a pre­ lude of three Christmas carols with Mrs. William Hoeflinger at the piano, accompanied on the violin by M'ss Lillian Thompson. This was follow­ ed by the processional ‘•Angels O’er the Fields Abiding," which started from the rear of Uie church. All members of the choir wore robes, the sopranos wearing red. the altos, ten­ ors and basses wearing blue. Each member of the choir carried a lighted blue taper, which was placed in the holder on the altar rail by HinmanSackett on the left and'*Mr. Hatfield' on the right. Rev. J. R. Wooton of the local church gave the invocation. While the choir sang "Away in the Man­ ger.” Rev. C. E. Gardner of the Ver­ montville church lighted the Christ candle. The third verse of the carol was sung as a duet by Mrs. W. R. Dean and Miss Ruth Hoeflinger. Fol­ lowing. the choir sang “Once in Roy­ al David's City.” The anthem. “Happy Bethlehem." was given by the choir unaccompa­ nied. Mrs. William R. Dean followed with the solo, "O Holy Night” other anthem, "Glory to God in the Highest," completed that part of the program. The old testament prophecy, given in Isaiah, was read by Rev. Gardner. "Angels from the Realms of Glory" and "Good Christian Men Rejoice" were both sung by the choir, followed by the anthem “The Shep^ herds' Christmas Song,' in which Mrs. Leta Northrup sang the third verse. Rev. Gardner then read the new testament fulfillment as given in Luke. “Bring a Torch, Jeanette Isa­ bella" was then sung by the choirs. “O Little Town of Bethlehem” was sung by the choirs and congregation. For offertory. Mrs. William Hoe­ fl nger played Mozart's Gloria. Ed­ ward Haines followed with the solo. "Gently, Lord, GenUy Lead Me." The benediction was given by th? Rev. Wooton, after which the choirs sang as their recessional. "O Come AH Ye Faithful." From the rear of the church, the choir sang, in closing, one verse of “Holy Night, Silent Night." And Of School.

DYNAMITE TAKES SKILL PLUS CARE Even today dynamite is more use­ ful in peace than in war, but in spite of modern manufacturing ’ methods the material still needs to be treated with skill and caution, warns George Amundson, engineer in the agricul­ tural extension service of M. S. C. “It'S likely that about 15,000 acres of Michigan land are being straight­ ened out annually by removing stumps and large rocks with the use of dynamite," he says. “The young­ er generation is not familiar with the use, handling and results possible with dynamite. It is an art we ought to retain.’’ No goal of clearing more and more land is involved, the dynamiting au­ thority asserts. Instead there likely is far more Michigan acreage refor­ ested each year than is cleared. But certain farmers find need in shifting to more fertile fields, or in making present fields easier to cultivate and ipore efficient to farm. t Dynamite helps dig ditches for draining wet spots. The explosive breaks up stumps and stones in cul­ tivated fields or aids in clearing cut­ over land for more livable sized farms. : Even industry still depends upon dynamite for operating mines, quar-. rles and digging for material suit-1 able for agricultural lime. .-.“No smoking" is still a good rule fpr men handling explosives. Other suggestions outlined by Amundson in­ clude keeping dynamite and detonat­ ors apart until the last possible momeent, protecting materials against friction and shock, avoiding contact with stray electricity and consulting a specialist when confronted with any new probelm involving weather, materials or transportation Legal Notices.

He said: “This depress'on is today’s problem. . . . We cannot and must not borrow against the future to meet i." Shorly thereafter, he told us that the nation which continued to pile up deficits was on the road to national bankruptcy. Undoubtedly, he recognized the truth of these two statements. Nev­ ertheless, either because he lacked courage or was swayed by his per­ sonal political ambition, he disregard­ ed his own convictions and has, for seven years, each year seen to it that this nation and its people went far­ ther along the road to financial dis­ aster, adding to our national deficit a yearly average of more than two bUUon dollars. In Roosevelt told us the remedy. 1931 he said: “We must share now out of what we have; but not out of what we expect to have some day in the future." Instead of borrowing and spending each year more than its income, this nation like the individ­ ual. should each year spend less than it collects, and- it should not pauper­ ize its people by excessive taxation The foregoing are statements of fact—not arguments. The remedy for the deplorable situation, for the avoidance of our involvement in for­ eign war, for the establishment of in­ dustrial peace and a sound, safe, fin­ ancial future for our country rests entirely in our hands. It Is time that, having subscribed to the quackery, the demagoguery and the political and financial heresies of this worker of disaster, we get back to the sane, sound, sensible thinking and practices which have demonstrat­ ed their usefulness to mankind. The doctrine of despair has no place in American life. Abraham Lincoln said: "Intelligence, patriotism, chr stianity and a firm reliance on Him who has never yet forsaken this favored land are still competent to adjust all our present difficulties." Let us then have the courage to follow the course which our intelli­ gence tells us is necessary; which our patriot’sm informs us is our only as­ surance of national integrity; which our Christianity convinces us is the only hope for the future. Avoid for­ eign entanglements; enact fair and just labor legislation; practice econ­ omy and thrift: and remember that the Lord helps those who help them­ selves. Sincerely, Clare E.

For "stand up” buffets the experienced entertainers have found it's a big help to have small trays on which each guest can assemble a meal. It’s often a good idea to have a hot dish. One way to facilitate serving is to have this hot dish come off the Move in two installments, one for the initial serving and another for sec­ ond helpings. Casserole dishes and creamed meats prove popular. Curried chicken is one favorite. Another is macaroni and cheese, macaroni and tomato sauce with meat balls, goulash or piping hot frankfurters. Good vegetable dishes are scalloped potatoes, sweet potatoes or com pud­ ding. Scalloped potatoes may fit the color scheme, if the meal is planned with a definite color scheme in mind. One item that can wait until the guests have served themselves and are seated is the coffee or other hot beverage. The 1938 fall pig rop m Michigan is estimated at 683.000 pigs saved. a 25 per cent increase over the 546,000 saved the previous fall, 44 per cent more than the 10-year average (1928-37) of 475.000. and the largest fall crop in the 17 years for which records are available, according to V. ti. Church. Senior Agricultural Sta­ tistician for the Michigan Co-Operat­ ive Crop Reporting Service. Based on reports collected by rural mail carriers from more than 6,300 farms, it is estimated that 100,000 litters were farrowed during the period June 1 to Dec. 1. 1939, with an average of 6.83 pigs saved per litter. Fall far­ rowing* in 1938 were 80,000 litters averaging 6.82 p‘gs per Utter. Combining the spring and fall crops gives a yearly total of 1,482,000 pigs saved, which is 24 per cent more than the previous year, 35 per cent more than the 10-year average, and almost as large as the 1,486,000 pigs saved in 1927. Michigan farmers report that they have bred or intend to breed about 6per cent more sows for farrowing in the spring of 1940 than were bred for farrowing last spring. If their inten­ tions are fulfilled, a total of 181,000 sows and gilts will farrow next spring, the largest number since 1927, In which year there were 138.000 spiing farrowings. The 10-year (1928-37) average of spring farrow­ ings is 94,000. It is estimated that 124.000 litters averaging 6 44 pigs each were farrowed in the spring of 1939. For the U. S., the pig crop report shows that the rapid upswing in hog production, which started in the spring of 1938 continued through the fall of this year, but apparently has been checked. The indications are that the pig crop of 1940 will be smaller than during 1939. The num­ ber of pigs saved in the fall season of 1939 (June 1 to Dec. 1) is estimated at 31,985,000 head, an increase of 4.334,000 head or 16 per cent over the fall crop of 1938. This is the largest fall pig crop in the 17 years for which records are available. It is 25 per cent larger than the 10-year (1928-37 > average. The combined spring and fall pig crop of 1938 is es­ timated at 84,302.000 head. This is 13,201,000 head or about 19 per cent larger than the combined crop of 1938 and 17 per cent larger than the 10-year average. It is the largest in the 17-year (1924-39) record, being slightly larger than the previous rec­ ord pig crop of 1933. The number of sows to farrow during the spring sea­ son is indicated at 8,580,000. This is practically the same as the number that farrowed in the spring season of 1939. The estimate is based upon the breeding intentions as reported about Dec. 1 and the relationship between breeding intentions and subsequent farrowing in other years. In no oth­ er year in the last 30 at least has there been such a sharp drop in the com-hog ratio between Nov. 15 and Dec. 15 as occurr.-d this year. If the low ratio of late December continues, with hog prices remaining at present low levels, the number of sows that will farrow in the 1940 spring season will probably be somewhat , smaller than the number indicated in this re­ port. —A turkey, which had been put —away in the large refrigerator at *“Candy!and for more than three years was enjoyed for Christmas dinner at the home of Mrs. Katherine Trier­ weiler in this village.

I’ll use English with my older girls and so can share more than with the use of an interpreter. One night I attended a debate at the Social club on the subject.

VOLUME LXVI Five Cenu the Copy Michigan Mirror By Oeae >"-t Although crystal gazing at this time of the year is apt to be done through r<»ae-colored glasses. 1940 forecasts for Michigan have been in significant agreement by predicting: 1. Reasonable prosperity for wage­ earners and farmers. 2. Improved financial condition for state government. 3. National spotlight on Michigan's political figures—Arthur Vandenberg of Grand Rapids. Thomas Dewey for­ merly of Owosso. and Frank Murphy of Detroit All In all, they point to an interest­ ing year for Michigan. While the present Eurojiean war makes the American scene subject to uncertain economic fluctuations, all signs now point to a long and ex­ haustive struggle overseas. The do­ mestic industrial, business and farm forecasts are all predicated in a de­ gree on the assumption that Hitler and Chamberlain will be calling each other names for many, many months to come. plants led all counties in the United States during 1939 in industrial wag­ es. The automobile worker receives the highest wage per hour of any special­ ized group in the nation. Rubber workers are second. As any Michigan resident well knows, the automobile industry sets । the pace for Michigan prosperity. It reaches into scores of small towns where automotive parts are made, and it feeds thousands of dollars to tour­ ist sections for fishing hunting, and vacations. Welfare Horne Rule. ’ While local officials were putting pressure on state officials at Lansing for more welfare assistance, Attorney General Thomas Read bolstered up administration resistance last week. He ruled.that county welfare boards may refuse to provide relief for the poor in cities or townships that have failed to provide for funds to solve their own welfare problems. Read said point-blank that the bur­ den of relief, under the ney home rule welfare act. was plainly a res­ ponsibility of local units of govern­ ment.' He opined that supervisors had authority to add a levy to the tax roll of any municipality or township which was not financing its own wel­ fare adequately. Sales TUxcn Soar. Michigan basked . in better times during 1939. Proof is seen in the soaring sale tax revenue collected by the state. According to Walter F.

NUMBER 28 “Cbrot Calls” In Motion Pictures Tractor Beit Tightened, Threw Him On Frozen Ground, Causing Head Fracture. Will Be Shown At The n»Wlnn Presbyterian Church Ou January 13. Earl Pennock is suffering from a bone fracture of the head near the ear as the result of an accident at the Pennock farm south of town Satur­ day. The boys were preparing to cut feed, and iiad the tractor warming up. Wayne, standing by him, took his eyes off him for a minute, and when he looked again. Earl lay on the frozen ground with his eyes wide op­ en, but not answering when he spoke to him. So he dragged him into the kitchen, contacted his folks who had come to Nashvule, and Mr. Pennock called Dr. Morris, and all went to the Pennock farm. Earl was just com­ ing to when they got there. He had passed out and was bleed­ ing badly at one ear. Dr. Morris diagnosed the difficulty as a bone fracture near but not at the ear, and ordered him to remain in bed three weeks, and not much activity after that for a time. There was no facial paralysis, the skin was not broken, the eyes are all right, and he seems to be coming fine. It all happened so quickly that the only explanation that seems possible Is that the tractor belt tightened up and- th«-ew him on the frozen ground.

Newton Knapp of Toledo sent The Eaton Rapids Journal the copy of a brief prayer being used ex­ tensively in private meditation by numerous newspapers. ministers clubs and individuals. The prayer is as follows: "Let the forces of light bring illumi­ nation to mankind; Let the spirit of peace be abroad; May men of good-will. everywhere, join in the spirit of cooperation; Let the spirit of forgiveness be ta; voked by men everywhere, one towards the other; Let power attend the efforts of the great servers of humanity." gested by a man who believed that all of the great discoveries and inven­ tions had been made, that the- U. S. Patent Office should be closed. We all know how mistaken he was. Since then the telephone, the automobile, the radio has been developed and television is on the way. Nearly 2,­ 000,000 patents have been issued since that time. Some times we feel that something quite near perfection has been reach­ ed in the things we use and come in contact with each day. But there is always a better way. Everything can pe improved. Consequently, ft’s a good idea to look at one’s job fre­ quently to see what can be done to improve the way of doing it Henry Ford Henry Ford pointed Sees For Youth, to what he termed the richest oppor­ tunity in our history for American youth. On the last business day of 1939, the automobile manufacturer made clear he did not support the belief that this country cannot find useful places for the hundreds of thousands of youths who will finish their school­ ing in the new year. "If energetic and intelligent young people," he said in an Interview, "will stop thinking that they cannot get along without attaching themselves to a payroll and will get out on the land, they will find there is still plen*T don't say they'll get rich right away. They may have to go to work for a man who owns a farm in order to get a start "When they have learned farming —and it is a new art today because the old ways are gone—they will be in a position to pick up some land of their own. Then they will be ready to share some of the profits that are coming to farmers when industrial demands for farm products really de­ velop." Of prospects for 1940, Ford said: "Business ought to be good. Why not? ' People are losing their fear that America is going to get into trouble overseas. Confidence is grow­ ing—Confidence in America with its new frontier—the land." After all these years while parents have been telling their children that too much _ _ was harmful to them and that they should eat more vegetables, along comes three scientists from the Massachusett Institute uf Technology to put a crimp in things.

We are not going to ask■ you to look in four ways at the same» time. It would be more profitable■ to look in each direction a sufficient• length of time to get the correct bal­■ ance necessary for future action. Let■ us begin our investigation. FIRST— LOOKING BACKWARD. Looking over the past and making! a true estimate of the failures, suc­■ cesses and efforts is profitable. There’ are regrets marked all along the' way. There are sins and follies' which have left their imprint. Butt the sins we have committed can be’ blotted out The thing is now, not so> much what we did but what we have■ left undone. Let us see how wes missed getting victories. SECOND- LOOKING INWARD. It is well to examine the internal machinery. What about the heart? What about the inner life? What about the secret life? What about the soul? What is the internal con­ dition? The Bible says "That out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.” The Bible also says "For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness." So self-exambiation is profitable although sometimes mor­ tifying. It is beneficial although it sometimes produces chastisement THIRD—LOOKING BACKWARD. What is the prospective view? Have we desired and now determined to seek the prize of the high calling of God in Christa Jesus? I take the liberty to say that this is the only ul­ timate sensible and hopeful goal. Really something to look forward to! I say this without fear of contradic­ tion by any materialistic or philoso­ phical theory. We shouAl forget the mistakes, should correct the condi­ tions and with absolute faith in God, reach, look and strive for greater things in the future. Let us live for that high calling of God. FOURTH—LOOKING UPWARD. Of course, we must look up and not down. Our strength is in God and not tn ourselves. We must look unto Jesus as the Author and Finisher of our faith—not in money, prestige or wisdom, but in the power and the might, and in the strength of God. It is a vision that we need, that must come from a spiriual source. Have you looked over the past? Do you know your internal condi­ tions? Have you ambitions and prospects? There is but one remedy. There is but one sensible outlook for you to take, and that is to look to Jesus Christ, who can forgive your sins, who can give you a clean heart, who can make your prospective view bright, and who can give you a per­ spective. or a Divine Vision as great as God and as supernatural as Christ, from whom all your strength must come.

Gen., Named For High PosL President Roosevelt nominated At­ torney General Frank Murphy as his fifth appointee to the supreme court on Thursday. The president also nominated Soli­ citor General Robert H. Jackson to succeed. Michigans former governor. Mr. Murphy, as attorney general, and Judge Francis J. Biddle of the Third U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals to be solicitor general. Senate confirmation of the lean Michigan New Dealer as an associate justice will put a solid majority of Roosevelt-appointees on the court Deaths and retirements opened five vacancies among the nine places on the bench within less than three years —all since Mr. Roosevelt fought and lost his battle in the spring of 1937 to reorganize the court because he did not like its "horse and buggy” in­ terpretations of the constitution. Mr. Roosevelt is the first president since William Howard Taft to name five justices. His other appointments were Hugo L. Black in 1937, Stanley F. Reed in 1938, Felix Frankfurter in 1939, and William O. Douglas in 1939.. The 46 year old Murphy succeeds Justice Pierce Butler, who died in November at the age of 73. Like Butler, Murphy is a member of the Catholic church. There is no other member of that faith on the supreme bench. Michigan housewives need not even be accurate budgeteers to applaud news that many of the important food commodities are in such ample supply that there's good eating in sight without too great a strain on the pocketbook. Although members of the home ec­ onomics extension staff at M. S. C. recommend a cook make at least an occasional food budget plan, news na­ tionally is that most foods are plenti­ ful enough. Estimates of the U. S. Bureau of Agricultural Economics include the prophecy that egg supplies ought to be ample and that quantities of dairy products are expected to be adequate. Fresh winter vegetables in generous quanities are backed up by a good supply of canned vegetables in stor­ age Dried and canned fruit in consid­ erable volume augment plentiful fresh fruit supplies especially of oranges and grapefruit. Cooks worrying about meat for the frying pan or the roaster can aid the farmers and packers and those poc­ ketbooks again, if they remember that the pork supply is so great it has raised the total meat supply higher than it has been for several years. Besides all these, there is a great abundance of American wheat, plen­ tiful for both domestic and export needs. So budget or no budget, the cooks apparently have little to worry them. - —About 20 Vermontville residents will be in Florida during the winter months. —Mrs. D. B.

OOO HOME-MADE CHILI 10c DUG-OUT TELEPHONE CALL TURNS OFF HEATER IN TIME It cost >1.60, but it was worth IL The expenditure of that small amount of money saved a Cincin­ nati woman hundreds of dollars re­ cently. She had left for a visit to SL Louis, and upon her arrival in that city, suddenly remembered that she had failed to turn off the hot water heater in her apartment So she put in a long distance telephone call to the Cincinnati fire depart­ ment, requesting that some one be sent to break into her apartment and turn off the heater.

The Golden Text (Leviticus 11:45) is: "I am the Lord that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God; ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.” Among the Bible citations is this passage (Psalm 51:7): "Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow."

The entire menu, with the exception of pepper, will consist of select meats, vegetables, and fruits. More than twenty state or­ ganizations are cooperating with the newspaper publishers’ group and the state department of Agriculture in the preparations. The $300 000,000 tourist Industry will be represented by managers of the four tourist associations. Spokes­ man for this growing ’cash crop" will be J. Lee Barrett of Detroit.

Peninsula since 1921 has increased from 597,000 pounds to more than 9.000,000 pounds in 1939. Michigan now ranks third in the production of Italian cheese with more than 1,800.000 pounds, the ma­ nufacture of this cheese being entire­ ly confined to the Upper Peninsula. During the past decade processing of condensed milk has been increased from 4,500,000 pounds to 13,260,000 pounds. Last year, for the first time in his­ tory, Michigan jumped into first place in the production of honey. Through the state department of agriculture, drip cannisters containing choice Michigan-produced honey will also tempt the appetite. Approximately 25 different fruit and vegetable condiments, along with rolls and coffee, will go to complete this "All-Michigan" tribute *to the food industry’. It will be a novel and news-worthy recognition of the part which Michigan agriculture plays in the state's economy.

I must Not fear the pestilence of the dark destruction That walks at noonday; for the Lord, my God. Has given His angels charge over me to keep me Down every earthly path that my foet have trod. Because of this love He promises to deliver, Becasue I know His name He sets me on high. Each time I call upon Him I know he will answer; Clarion-clear He responds to my lifted cry. He says that He will deliver me in trouble. Through m’y darkened way He will lead me out. I will say of the Lord. He has showed me salvation: I have tested and proved His mercy; why should Indoubt?

And here are the one hundred and twelve words: Men of Principle are the Principal Men • • • Work is Life and Good Work is Good Life • • • It isn’t what you know, but how well you know how to use what you know that real­ ly counts • • • For, Good Friend, the trouble in business is not the lack of men with ability — but the terrible lack of ability of men to USE their ability. ••• In life it is just as im­ portant to FORGET some things as it is to remember others. • • • So don’t forget to remember and always remember to forget. • • • And Keep on Keeping on. For you are judged by the Record that you Make—Not by Your Ability to Make a Record.—The Silver Lining. “Christianity.” The horticulturist makes a most mi­ nute examination in order to distin­ guish between the trees in his or­ chard and for the purpose of discov­ ering the peculiarities and habits of each tree. It is a very easy matter for even the simplest intellect to dis­ tinguish an apple from a peach. The more enlightened can distinguish one apple from another, and the most scientific horticulturist can tell you the value of each apple, the exact month in which it should be plucked and the mcnth in which it should be eaten. In other words there are cer­ tain rules by which you can distin­ guish one fruit tree from another and by which you can discover the life habits and value of each kind of fruit. It is just as proper for you to put Christianity to the test Christ Him­ self said: “Wherefore, by their fruits ye shall know them.’’ (Matt. 7-20). There are false religions and there is true Christianity. Real Christianity is Christ living within a person. It is not an outward sham or preten­ sion. Christianity is not a creed, it is not a philosophy, it is not a religion in the sense in which you speak of reli­ gion. It is a life; yes. it is the Ilfs of Jesus Christ worked out in the lives of men and women who have been regenerated by accepting the sacrifice of the Blood of Jesus Christ shed for their redemption. Christianity is distinguished from all man-made religions of the world. Christianity has the element of hu­ manity; it is known by its spirit of sacrifice, it has an Indispensable per­ sonal touch and it keeps the individ­ ual separate from the downward trend of the world. The real Chris­ tian is democratic in his attitude to­ ward all other .human beings. Chris­ tianity comes from Christ and you can be a Christian just now, if you will, by receiving Christ in. Take Him into your life today. “Enter ye in at the strait gate; for wide is the gate, and broad is the way that leadeth to destruction.” Matt 6:14. — Today’s Gospel Truth, by Irving G. Wahlstrom. What The Read- Why does a famer Buys. Uy spend about three cents a week to get a subscription to the weekly newspaper? Three cents a week means leas than half a cent a day. It’s a small amount The average child wastes more than that every day. . A special sale, advertising a 30-ceni item for 23 cents, will save seven cents, paying the cost of the newspa­ per and giving a profit of four cents. You pay more than three cents a day to rent a book. The home news­ paper costs half a cent a day; and did you ever see anybody reading a book who didn’t lay it aside promptly when the newspaper came? Every mcmoer of the family, from nine years of age up—children par­ ents, grandparents—finds something of great interest in the home newspa­ per. That can’t be truthfully said about any book or any other period­ ical. It costs more per week for any of the following than it does fdr your home newspaper: four cigarettes, five ounces of beer, one package of gum. a bar of candy,, one cigar, a cup of coffee. When you’ve finished reading your newspaper, every otirer member of the household can still use it You can't say that about gum, candy or tobacco. Opportunities A recent survey of the For Youth. United States Cham­ ber of Commerce dis­ closes that in spite cf unemployment in this country there is an actual shortage of skilled labor in many areas and that this shortage is in­ creasing. The metal and building trades are the most affected. It is a result of the depression. When work in the building and metal trades became slack young men were discouraged from entering them, thus there were fewer and fewer replace­ ments for the skilled mechanics who were becoming too old to continue at work. The shortage of labor did not appear until business and industry began picking up. Now there is an actual scarcity of skilled labor and few young men starting in as appren­ tices. The moral to be drawn from the situation is this. There are oppor­ tunities for young men today in the mechanical trades, more than for some years past. Despite the increas­ ed use of machinery in industry there will always be a demand for skilled men to build the machines and run them. The same is true of the budd­ ing trades. Buildings and houses will wear out and there will always be jobs for masons, carpenters and steel workers in putting them together or in maldng repairs. A man with a trade, year in and year out, will fare better than the one who can perform only c ommon labo;r his wages will be higher and his employment steadier. Learning a trade is not accomplish­ ed overnight It is a job that re­ quires persistence and study. The schools through their vocational courses can help the young man who wants to become a carpenter or a metal worker but they can do little more than give him a start by ac­ quainting him with the uses of tools. When he leaves school the young man must be prepared to serve an appren­ ticeship, and learn his trade by ac- - Horace Greeley once advised young Potterville Hi-Y sponsored a pep men to go west.

SNAPSHOT CUIL HOME LIFE Family gatherings offer unusual opportunities for story-telling pictures. of the Snapshot Guild A READER sent in the above picture as an example of what can be done by an unateur photographer with an in­ expensive camera Photographically it is an excellent picture and this Guild member is to •oe congratulated on his work. To the Snapshot Guild, however, this picture represents much more than an example of good photogra­ phy. It tells a real story. As we visu­ alize the story behind this picture it lakes us into the homes of thou­ sands of typical America* family groupe gathered at the home of parents for the day or evening. It is just such pictures that add Interest and value to your snapshot collection and every year, as the children "grow up,” you will cherish such snapshots more and more. Record pictures, such as scenes, buildings, monuments and other places of interest you snap in your travels are important and interest­ ing. but don’t overlook the innumer­ able opportunities for intimate, story-telling pictures of the family. With present day film and Photo­ flash or Photoflood bulbs you can take indoor pictures with any camera equipped for "time” exposure. The picture above was taken with an or­ dinary camera with the aid of a No. 20 Photoflash bulb. Here is what you do. Place your camera on a tripod, table or some­ thing solid so that there will be no movement of the camera when the picture is taken. Locate your sub­ jects, or group in the finder. At arm’s length to the side of your camera place an ordinary floor lamp; to get full edftjfcacy from the light, remove the shade and hold a white card or a pillow case in back of it to serve as a reflector. If in a group picture of this kind you find that the distance at which the Photofiash will be placed is about 10 feet from the group use stop Ml with an anastig­ mat lens or No. 1 stop on single lens cameras dr box cameras. With double lenses not of th© anastigmat type, use the largest stop. With the current in the lamp turned off re­ place the home bulb with the Photo­ flash bulb. Set your camera for a time exposure; open the shutter and instantly “turn on” the Photofiash bulb which you have placed in the floor lamp. There will be a vivid, in­ stantaneous flash of light Immedi­ ately after this flash close the shutter of your camera and you have your picture. If you prefer you can take a snap­ shot of such a group, providing you have a camera with an f.6.8 lens or faster, using Photoflood bulbs. It will be necessary to employ two floor lamps; place one lamp about 6 feet in front and a little to the right of your subjects; place lamp number two about six feet to the front and left of the group. Tilt the shades on the lamps so that the light is cast over the entire group. Place two Photoflood bulbs in the lamp to the left and one or two in the one to the right Be sure to use super-sensitive panchromatic fllm tor best results for snapshots with this kind of a set-up. With fllm slower than super-sensitive short time exposures can bo made with Photoflood bulbs. ~ Set the diaphragm at f.6X and the shutter speed at V2$ of a second; turn on your Photoflood lamps and— snap—you have made a snapshot at night indoors. When shades on home lamps can­ not be tilted or are of a kind that does not permit directing the light on the subject, remove the shade. In such eases, some kind of reflector back of the lights will throw con­ siderably more light forward. Don't forget these important pic­ tures around the home. Get some Photofiash or Photoflood bulbs (they can be purchased in alm -t any store where they sell photographic supplies), load your camera with super-sensitive panchromatic film and take a few snapshots at night indoors. It’s a lot of fun.

Youth Verona Age. During the course of a recent trial, an elderly maiden lady advanced the theory that children today are much worse than when she wan a girl. To prove her contention she pointed io the fact that more children are brought Into court today than were fifty years ago. The extent of cr.me In the United States has increased with modern in­ ventions. New modes of living have produced new problems. This nation has developed its material resources more rapidly than its'ability to use them. Consequently, it finli itself confronted with many new problems, but with no experience in combatting the evils presented by such problems. Crime, the greatest public enemy, in attacking the nations youth, is strik­ ing at the very womb of civilization. Movie Crushes. Many parents complain that their daughters in the early teens have “crushes" on movie stars. These childish infatuations may become so serious that girls, whose imagination is particularly lively and vivid, some­ times use all their spending money for the movies and waste hours on dreamy meditation. The best way to meet such a prob­ lem is to substitute other interests. Feminine sports, girls' clubs, dramat­ ics, social work or some hobby, such as drawing, music, modeling, etc., will, engage the growing girl’s atten­ tion to the entire elimination of day­ dreaming, "crushes," and other simi­ lar habits.

This reflection produces the firm conviction that un­ desirable behavioristic tendencies must be corrected during childhood, or the individual will continue to exhibit them during the remainder of his life. The fact that we have such large numbers of both adult and juvenile ONLY criminals at large in the United States today is an indication that some parts of our social structure must be corrected.

Half-year license plates were plac­ ed on Bale today (January 25) at all branch offices of the secretary state. The date was advanced by Harry F Kelly to aid prospective li­ cense piate buyers who find it incon­ venient to purchase full year plates. Registrations for the year 1939 reached a total of 1.636.963. Ap­ proximately one-third of this total or 580,933 cars owners purchased half­ year plates. Since the new 1940 license plates were placed on sale last Oct 24, a to­ tal of 157,525 sets of plates have been issued. This figure indicates a mini­ mum of 1,479.4o8 car owners who must purchase license plates before March 1, if they intend to use the highways of Michigan after that date. With but 31 days remaining before the mandatory dead-line, automobile owners must purchase an average of 47,723 sets of plates each day until the first of March.

Carton, who usually allocates state aid grants for premium payment#-—a sizeable assistance to the Fairs—said that any fund obtained this year from the State Racing association should go to pay an advance of .5205,000 made last spring to the Fairs and that probably there would be no ad­ ditional funds available. The county Fairs were left without a state appropriation in 1937-1938. For the 1939 Fair season, the "1.Ctle legislature" advanced 5205,000, he said, from the emergency appropria­ tion fund. "It took a lot of courage to advance $205,000 with only $500,000 in the fund," Carton aald"It should be paid back—that was the agreement at the time—and I won’t be a party to anything else." Carton said “there’s not a dollar in sight now for the county Fair prem­ iums, the 4-H clubs. Smith-Hughes, or anyone." CELEBRATE 40th ANNIVERSARY OF MR. AND MRS.

Prank, Murphy of Michigan stepped out of President Rocweve t’s cabinet Thursday. Jan. 18. Into the Supreme court­ In an unusual ceremony at the White House, the 47 year old former Michigan governor took his constitu­ tional oath of office, though he has yet to take the judicial oath. At the same time Robert H. Jack­ son, solicitor-general, was sworn in to succeed Murphy as the nation’s highest legal counsel, attorney-gen­ eral. Though Jackson immediately arsumed the duties of his new office. Murphy will not become a full-fledg­ ed justice of the Supreme court until he takes the formal judicial oath. That ceremony is expected to be per­ formed when the Supreme court re­ convenes Monday. Jan. 29. after a fortnight’s recess. Meanwhile, Federal Judge Francis Biddle of Philadelphia will be sworn in as Jackson’s successor as solicitor-general on Monday. The U. S. Senate confirmed Presi­ dent Roosevelt’s nomination of Attor­ ney-General Frank Murphy to the Supreme court last weekf with neith­ er a record vote nor debato. Ratifying a series of other White House appointments, the Senate also confirmed Solicitor-General Robert H. Jackson, potential presidential can­ didate as the new attorney-general, and Federal Judge Francis Biddle of Philadelhpia as solicitor-general. Confirmation of Murphy was the final legislative procedure In his ele­ vation to the- nation's highest court. As the Senate acted, the vigorour director of the justice department was busy • directing the manifold cam­ paigns of his eventful one-yegr tenure as attorney-general. From the office he will soon relin­ quish. he was personally superintend­ ing the opening of a special grand jury in the capital which will consid­ er the nation's first cases in the cur­ rent drive against foreign spies and saboteurs, a>d guiding other counter espionage, graft and anti-trust pro­ ceedings underway throughout the nation. Murphy was described as deter­ mined to retain his present cabinet post for at least two weeks before taking the formal oath of the h'gh tribunal, in order to conclude numer­ ous pending cases in his sweeping en­ forcement crusades. Murphy wishes to leave his cabinet desk clean when he actually assumes his judicial chair. This procedure, he was represented as believing, is the only ethical one. in view of th© de­ partment of justice function as of the chief litigants before the court. Indicative of the high non-partisan favor in which Murphy is held on Capitol Hill, a leading Republican and a Progressive made special par­ liamentary points of their sanction of his appointment Senator Vandenberg of Michigan arose just prior to the vote and re­ quested that he be specifically record­ ed as favoring the action. Senate Republican Leader McNary of Oregon made an identical announcement on behalf of absent Senator LaFollette (P) of Wisconsin, who is conducting hearings on the Pacific coast . Murphy was not present when the vote was taken. He had previously appeared before a senate judiciary subcommittee to clarify his media­ tion methods in serious Michigan au­ tomobile strikes, the phase of his career which provoked sharpest crit­ icism of him. and also appeared brief­ ly before the full committee to re­ ceive its greeting.

HOLD SLIDING-SKATING PARTY With winter Ln full sway and the hit's covered white with snow, the in­ terest of young people turns to winter sports. The Young People's Dept, of Nashville Evangelical church went out to Leedy's Corners Tuesday even­ ing of last week where a big bon-fire along the pond gave warmth and light Twenty-seven young people with three leaders experienced a time of their life. Some brought tobog­ gans. some skis, some sleds, and oth­ ers their skates. The evening brought so many favorable comments, the ex­ ecutive committee will plan another meeting in the near future. Newly elected officers of the Young People's Dept are: Russell Langham, presi­ dent; Car?’. Pettibone, vice president; Rose Marie Tarbell, secretary, and Roger Shaw, treasurer. Committees will be <et up immediately for the de- rte tail work in the Young People’s De‘ partmenL MRS. CARRIE EVANS HAS A “WINTER GARDEN” Mrs. Carrie Evans had her holiday ‘fling,” including a surprise a’rplane ride with her Indiana relatives, and returned "broke” of course, but she’s having no difficulty because of that, because of her "winter garden.” She is feasting, and also her friends, on freshly picked lima beans, which had fully ripened and not been affected by the cold. She picked a peck the first time, and that was only a beginning. She can’t see the necessity of going to Florida or such like for the fresh vegetables of the winter months if you have the right kind of a winter garden. “Limas on the fence” are on her menus now.

As a sea gull rests I would-rest in the Father’s love; It spreads Its wings on the wind, and unafraid Of the dark waters beneath, it yields its weight To gain new strength after a long flight made. I would spread my spirit s wings; I would rest On a love that will bear me up and hold me high Above the raging waters of time and space, Like a bird afloat between the earth and sky. And my wings that have flown afar will rest again; New strength will be mine to lift and soar above The wildest, darkest sea, and I need ndt fear; For above and about and beneath me is that love. “Eternal R parting gives knowExpericnce." ledge, but experience is what makes men wise. We are slow to trust a man without experience. In normal life it is thought that 55 years of human ex­ perience is supposed to make the judgment soufld, the power of dis­ crimination keen, the understand.ng clear and the sympathies mature. As we look at the majority of our lead­ ers and statesmen we find that this is true. Suppose the span of experience could be stretched over a century and a half, and none of the usual weak­ nesses of age be yet in evidence. How such a man's personal counsel would be sought! The experience of Jesus Christ spans eternity! It goes back to the beginning. We are told of Christ's superiorities in the book of Colosslans (12th book of the New Testament). "Who is the image of the invisible God the firstborn of every creature: For by Him were all thing created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities or powers: all things were created by him and for him: And He is before all things, and by Him all things consist And He is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in al Ithings He might have the pre-eminence. For it pleas­ ed the Father that in Him should all fullness dwell.” Cot 1:15-19. How the personal counsel of Christ ought to be sought! He from experiencc holds in His hand the whole sum of wisdom. And we are told to come boldly to Jesus because He is a sympathetic high priest. We should trust Him because of His eternity of experience! Who will trust Christ today? Get the old family Bible out of the trunk or down from the shelf, dust it off and read Its pages—and let Him reveal His way to, you. The Word of God is “A lamp ’unto your feet and a light unto our path." Ps 119:105.—Today's Gospel Truth, by Irving G. Wahlstrom. A little book, one such as has come to the desk of this editor, has recently found its way into the homes, the offices and the hearts of a great many persons throughout the nation. The book is entitled “These Forty Years,” and the author is Melvin E. Trotter. Now, most of us hardly re­ cognise that name written in that way. The author of the book, as most of us know him, is just Mel Trotter of the City Rescue Mission of Grand Rapids. . This little book, with its interesting title, is by no means an ordinary book telling an oridnary story. It is a book telling from the heart of a man who knows the story of Christ, the story of salvation, the story of reconstruction of many a man whose soul seemed lost for all eternity. It is the story of 40 years, the story of that period, since today Mel Trotter came to Grand Rapids 40 years ago to open the City Rescue Mission. What Mei Trotter and the Mission has done in the 40 years, most of us know in general. Mighty few of us These Forty Yean. know in detail. We do know that th.nusand# of down and outers, drun­ kards, thieves, and all sorts of men and women have, through the Mis­ sion and through the tactful kindness of Mel Trotter, found a better way in life. As Mel Trotter would put it: “They have been saved by the blood of Jesus Christ," just as Mel himself was one day in the long and distant and dark past. Mel has never re­ gretted what came to h m that day so long ago. Indeed, because it came to him, he has devoted his life to bringing salvation to others in simi­ lar circumstances.. And he has brought to. many thousands the same sort of happiness that came to him that day. Forty years now has the Mission been going and for 40 years its sup­ erintendent has been Mel Trotter and none other. It has, through him, be­ come the parent mission to some 69 others located all across the conti­ nent It has been the mother to these other Missions and Mel Trotter has been the inspiraion behind them all. Not only has the City Rescue Mis­ sion in these 40 years looked after the spiritual welfare of thousands but from the Mission has gone food, clothing, fuel and good cheer and en­ couragement to care for the human necessities of many thousands. What a hold this institution has gained upon the hearts of the people of Grand Rapids is manifested by the fact that Mel Trotter never has plac­ ed the Mission in the Community Chest, never has put on a “drive," never has made public appeals for funds. As Mel puts it: “We make our appeal to and through God. He al­ ways responds.” These 40 years Mel Trotter has been working among us. These 40 years he has been doing good works among our less fortunate people. These 40 years he has been a great influence in Grand Rapids. It was 40 years ago today that Mel Trotter first came among us to preach *he Gospel as the Gospel is interpreted to him through the act of God in saving the man Mel Trotter knows best—him­ self.—Grand Rapids Herald, Jan. 19. The Treasury Grab Bag. When the proposal to amend the state Con­ stitution to limit to 15 mills the total of taxes that may be levied against real property was up for consideration. The Herald opposed it vigorously. We held that if the Amendment were art^pted, it would seriously cripple school funds, that it would throw upon the state Itself the burden of providing for numerous pusposes funds then raised by the lo­ cal communities, that such a course inevitably would increase the cost of government, with attendant increased tax burden. At that time we were most confidently assured that we were crazy, that none of these things would happen. Particularly were we con­ demned for insisting that school funds, especially the Primary School fund, would be wrecked- The fact is that every one of our contentions have been realized and some others which we did not foresee. It is a fine thing, we grant, that so great a burden has been taken from real estate. The question is whether, having passed to the state the burden of tax raising, we have not, in fact, increased the total taxes we pay. The answer is that we have. We are under the sales tax, now raising from all the people of Mich­ igan something between two and three times as much money for state purposes as we did when the tax was levied against real estate. But the thing which hits us all hardest is that since the state treasury is now the fount from which must flow the great bulk of the money to be spent by state and by local communities for schools and other purposes, we have made of that treasury only a grab bag. We have Increased the cost of government tremendously because we are spending chiefly the money which comes from the state treasury which we are inclined to look upon as a sort of Christmas tree. The schools, now' deprived of their former sources of revenue which hit the pocketbooks of the community directly, arc seeking more and more money from the state. We demand cf the state that it sup- THfMDAV. FIJI. 1.

We demand that the state take over the improvement end care of more and more city streets. Everything that we can conceive of that it would be nice to have we go afteri leaving it up to the state treasury to supply the funds. We have removed from the loca' commun. ity the burden of supplying funds for many and many activities. Mean­ time, we have built up more and greater machines for the levying and collecting of the taxes, for accounting for them and for expending of the money. We have done all and more of the things we predicted when the Amendment was first proposed. We are not advocating a repeal of that amendment now but we do believe that it has worked for greater gov­ ernmental expenditures and for heav­ ier taxes, by and large. If the people of Michigan are satisfied with it. that's their business, but perhaps some of them might do well to do a bit of figuring and some thinking.— Grand Rapids Herald. Jesus said (Luke 17:21), “The king­ dom of God is with­ in you." Therefore, harmony, satis­ faction contentment, and peace are present for individual realization at all times. In Christian Science one finds that thoughts of fear, sin, and discouragement produce inharmony, while spiritual understanding ex­ presses Itself in harmony and success. Mary Baker Eddy writes (Science and Health with Key to the Scrip­ tures. p. 167), "Our proportionate ad­ mission of the claims of good or of evil determines the harmony of our existence.—our health, our longevity, and pur Christianity.” Thus it is evi­ dent that what we admit to be true has a marked effect upontour daily experience. The belief that evil is real and powerful may manifest itself in differing forms of discord in our various activities But if. in the light of Christian Science, we know that evil has no Intelligence or authority, because God, good is omnipotent and omniscient, we arc enabled to cup­ plant discord in human experience with harmony and joy. Christ'an Science teaches the allness of God, good, and the consequent nothingness of evil, with its false claim to influ­ ence and power. Spiritual understanding is the only effective remedy for erroneous be­ liefs. since it reveals Mind to be the one true basis for happiness and har­ mony. The best assurance for main­ taining a desirable environment is a consciousness filled with goodness, love, justice—a consciousness Imbued with the conviction that "all things work together for good to them that love God" (Romans 8:28). The con­ sciousness of the allness—the omni­ presence—of divine Love affords an effective defense against all manner of erroneous suggestion. Christ Jesus said (John 14:2), “In my Father’s bouse are many man­ sions." Man. as the idea of God, lives and moves in Mind, the infinite divine consciousness, wherein are only har­ mony and goodness. Our true self­ hood is ever aware of kindness, com­ passion, peace, health, perfection. God's image and likeness knows no other state of being than that of perpetual harmony. Health, har­ mony. happiness are attained by spir­ itualizing individual human conscious­ ness. We should always resist the temptation to believe that we are un­ able to accomplish a worthy task be­ cause of environment, conditions or unjust opposition. Ail we need to do is to accept the fact that, as the chil­ dren of God, omnipotent .infinite Truth, we are endowed with unlimit­ ed spiritual capacity. Then we shall begin to express the wisdom and strength necessary to achievement Consistent harmony and success can be won only as we constantly reason from the basis of Spirit As we look at existence from the spiritual point of view, we find joy. beauty, and bliss made manifest Ln our present experience. If we be­ lieve ourselves to be material and separated from divine Principle, the goal we desire seems remote and even unattainable. But when we grasp the fact, even faintly, that true self­ hood is at one with God, Love, and Improving Our Environment. tality, the outlook brightens and, we find heaven at hand Mrs. Eddy avers (The First Church of Christ, Scien­ tist, and Miscellany, p. 160): “To live so as to keep human consciousness in constant relation with the divine, the spiritual and the eternal, is to indi­ vidualize infinite power; and this is Christian Science." He who is con­ scious of the presence of divine pow­ er sees as unreal any sense of a dis­ agreeable or cramped environment. The song of the bird, the beauty of the flower, the sky, the sunlight, all tjpeak to the human heart of peace. Why? Because they lift our thought above the drab outlook of material sense to the contemplation of these •UGHIuAN bTATE RADIO HWHIJUHTt Station WKAR, Michigan rflate col- | Y. M. C. A. item* | »Hi m IJilAIH I <** •« Chain Stere Tax Report. The annual report of the Chain Store Tax division reveals the cost of collecting the chain store tax reached its lowest level in 1939, Harry F. Kelly, Secretary of State, announces. Michigan collected >604.152.00 at a collection cost of two and one-half per cent The legislature appropriated $15,­ 600 for the administration of this di­ vision per year, including total in­ spection and collection costs. Tbs re­ port shows that Indiana, which has a similar law. required mc^re than ten per cent of its total revenue for en­ forcement cost Comparison with 12 other states shows Michigan collec­ tions as the lowest ratio. Enforcement of the chain tax law, as reported, indicates the truth of Kelly’s statement that many chain store operators had been evading the tax. One hundred and seventy-eight such companies were added to the tax list for the first time during the past year, the report revealed. The Michigan chair, store tax law was enacted by the 1933 legislature at a rime when many other states enacted similar laws. The 1935 and 1937 legislatures defeated proposals to increase the tax. No bills of that nature were introduced during the 1939 session. Proiecds from the collection of chain store taxes in Michigan go into the general fund of the state, nearly sixty per cent of which are used for educational purposes. —Sheldon Memorial hospital of Al­ bion had its 1,000th birth, a daughter bom to Mr. and Mrs. John B.

The hospital was opened May 1, 1924. and several local merchants have been awaiting the opportunity to award numerous attractive gifts to the 1,000th child born in the institu­ tion. symbols of divine goodness. Then, how much more should the Science of Christ, when understood and applied, increase our peace and joy, and pro­ mote harmony and success in all wor­ thy enterprises! The only possible way we have of experiencing real and stable happiness and peace is through spiritual thinking, which recognizes the presence and allness of inexhaust­ ible Love. There is but one really satisfying way to improve our envir­ onment, and that is by eliminating evil from pur thinking, by banishing envy, fear, selfishness, and hatred. The purified consciousness finds concord and bliss where material sense sug­ gests discord and woe. When we realize that God is omni­ present. we know that evil cannot prevent us from proving the perfec­ tion of man, God’s likeness. No claim of evil can interfere with our demonstration of goodness, blessed­ ness, and harmony. If harmony does not seem to be present, we need to draw closer to God, and cling more firmly to His allness and goodness. In proportion to our realization of God's all-indlusiveness. and of man's likeness to Soul, will good come into our human experience. Let us accept wholeheartedly the fact that good is infinite, and that error cannot pre­ vent our recognition of the fact Then the loveliness of creation will unfold before our spiritualized vision, and our present experience will be filled with opportunities for good, friendship, and righteousness.—Chris­ tian Science Monitor. Some farmers move to town and start a grocery store, while others prefer the old way of going broke on the farm. Some speakers don't put enough fire into their speeches, and others don't put enough of their speeches into the fire. Most of us might make far greater progress in the pursuit of happiness -if we didn’t try so many detours to dodge work. There is this much to say about the fellow who has to keep his nose to the grindstone—he alnt sticking it in somebody else's business.

The man, identified by Detroit police as Ed­ ward Elvert, 18, .formerly of Muir, dashed past a state police car at Muir about 4 o'clock Wednesday af­ ternoon. He had previously been re­ ported in the vicinity and was being closed in on by the police net. As he speeded past the troopers who were going down a steep hill in the oppo­ site direction, Deputy Leo Geller gave chase. The last time the latter spied the fugitive was on a gravel road three miles east of Pewamo about 6 p. m. Elvert was headed east towards Clinton county at a terrific pace. -When he approached the US16 intersection Tuesday night, Depu­ ty Steams, not recognising the car at first, ordered it to slow down. As it did so, he saw the license number, which had been broadcast He fired twice, apparently not hitting the car, before it was out of range. Deputy Ben Nev*, chased the auto at an 80 mile an hour clip to a road east of the Saranac intersection. There he lost the trail. State police halted the drag-net late Wednesday night in the belief that the intended defendant had escaped. New* in Brief BIG THRIFT SALE!

The iittle’North Branch boy is Lynn Webb, six year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Louie Webo. and grandson of Mr. and Mrs. DonWebb and Mr. and Mrs. Sherman Swift. The story follows: “North Branch—A confinement of nearly six weeks in bed with a broken leg has failed to daunt the spirit of Master Lynn Webb, six year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Louie Webb, who fell from a bicycle on Dec. 5. Lynn has kept fully abreast of bis classmates n the first grade and only the sub­ jects of music and art will necessi­ tate extra time after he returns to school. Lynn’s father is teacher of agriculture in the school. On his birthday, Dec. 6, and during the holidays he was made recipient of innumerable games, drawing and de­ signing boards, color charts and num­ ber puzzles. ‘Just for fun’ he count­ ed his numerals beyond the goal of his class assignments, then, to re­ lieve the monotony, began counting by twos, to the lOOgoal. Each day’s reading assignment was play to him. Other subjects as well became a part of the dally routine, not as tasks to be finished, but as a port of the day’s pastimes. Numerous little friends made of Lynn’s sunny room a rendezvous of fun. Coming to amuse and offer sympathy, the tables were turned and the visitors found them­ selves the audience, with the little patient the entertainer. Through the long weeks his bedside has been the mecca for games, school news exchange, and treats of fruit and candy. Playmates, friends and teachers have called on the little bright-eyed boy. so tiny in the b g white bed. yet so alive and alert, re­ fusing to be downed by a mere brok­ en bone in a cast , Monday.

Lynn Webb received a letter from a George Webb at Flushing. 55 years old, saying he was interested in his story and picture and his bravery through his convalescence. Said the name caught his eye, being the same surname as his, and that he wished to meet him sometime. They were all thrilled.

During the monthly meeting of a psrentteacber association the question arose as to who was primarily resporusib e for the guidance of children. This question can best be answered by stating that the responsibUlty for guiding the child falls upon the com­ munity, the parents and the individual himself. The community must provide chil­ dren with decent surroundings, must set up institutions which will effec­ tively cope with problems of educa­ t on. health recreation, etc. Parents should not only provide children with the necessities of life, but should also see to it that they form correct ideas in regard to reli­ gion. conduct, tolerance, thoughtful­ ness and honesty. At no time should the attitude of parents be one of eva­ sion or domination; this gives a child a feeling of insecurity. Parents should recognize the fact that many mechanical improvements, unknown when they were children, ere now having their effect on the lives of modern youth. Many churches which no longer play a part In each com­ munity have been supplanted by oth­ er agencies. The modem child must confront greater temptations than those which beset his parents who lived in small or rural communitiesEach individual must assume the responsibility of guiding his own des­ tiny. He must be taught to differen­ tiate between loose thinking and the truth. He must be trained to think in terms of his own responsibility to­ wards the group of which he is a member; he must be able to control his own secret urges and subject them to the best interests of the community. Pernicious Advertisements. Advertisements of liqiiors whiskey, beer and tobacco are carefully de­ signed to appeal to the individual through different channels. Smart young men and women are pictured enjoying tobacco while endorsements of prominent people are conspicuously displayed. It is unfortunate that such advertis'ng appeals not only to the adult but particularly to the adoles­ cent, who is usually striving to attain a sophistication beyond his years. While the argument has been present­ ed that the use of tobacco and light wines and beer in moderation is not harmful, it has often been found that its use by young boys and girls in their early teens frequently leads to various evil consequences. The young man who wrecks his car while driving under the influence of liquor, killing or injuring h's compan­ ions, or the young woman who drifts from cigarettes to alcohol and to the subsequent general loosening of mor­ als. were led to their ruin by trying to attain the world! Lneas of so-called smartness subtly suggested by perni­ cious advertisements. I The Barryville C. E. society was organized tn 1892. There is a large list of charter members of that socie­ ty, of which Mr. and Mrs. Will Hyde are the only couple living in the com­ munity who helped in the organization of that first society 48 years ago. We surmise that the interest this good couple has shown in the organization through these years as helped to keep them young and active in the Mas­ ters work. Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Hyde! If there is anyone in Barry county who has been an Endeavorer over 48 years, we would like to hear from you. Drop a card to A. A. Griffin, Acquired Brutality. A small fur dealer was responsible for much grief in a community by of­ fering a few cents for cat hides. As a result dozens of pet cats began to disappear. Eventually several broth­ ers were brought into court and con­ fessed that they stole and killed scores of family cats. It was discovered that they had been selling the hides to the fur dealer over a period of sev­ eral months. The boys had never been taught to respect other people's property or to develop a liking for animals. Their father had always done a great deal of hunting outside the regular season and not only neglected his own hunt­ ing dogs, but openly displayed great cruelty toward all weak and helpless creatures. Consequently. hlf> sons felt no remorse In injuring a family pet with a stone or rifle, and then killing it brutally and removing its hide. —Rev. and Mr* R. V.

Knowing that the health and mor­ al of children can become undermined when they roam the streets at night, a judge attempted to arouse public opinion of a recognition of this prob­ lem. Due to the fact that several in­ dignant mothers reprimanded him for his stand on the subject and informed him over the telephone that they in­ tended to vote for his opponent at the ensuing election, this judge threw valor to the winds and confined his activities to winning votes instead of saving children from the dangers of delinquency. Since then he has not worked up sufficient courage to broach the subject again to the good people of his district. THE WORLD'S GOOD NEWS GROUP B-5ILfCT 2 MAG. GROUF C-SHJCT 1 MAG.

Large Sum The state highway department an­ nounced this week it was vouchering to the auditor general for payment allocations to counties of 3471,895 in automobile weight tax collections for the last quarter of 1939. The money represents purchases of 1939 automobile license payments for the last three months of that year. It does not include any 1940 license plates sold during the period. First returns from the 1940 plate sales will be made before or on April 15. Total 1939 weight tax co'lect ons amounted to 319,893,910.27 as com­ pared with 318.877,005.10 for 1938. AU weight tax collections are distrib­ uted directly to counties where they are allocated to county and municipal highway purposes. Barry county receives 32,208.85; Eaton county, 37,571.64. B. P. SEWARD, NOW 82, BORN IN CERESC-. WIS. B. P. Seward, former resident of Nashville and now living with Battle Creek relatives, - recently celebrated his 82nd birthday, but he's still re­ pairing antiques. Mr. Seward was bom in Ceresco. Wls., now incorporat­ ed in Ripon. It is interesting to know that Cerfsco was founded two years before his birth by a group known as the Wiseons n Phalanx. Members of toe group bought a large tract of land to found a community which had an elemental form of com­ munism. All of the land and build­ ings were commonly owned. This dis­ banded later, but the family stayed on and he remained until a young man.

In another proclamation he desig­ nated Feb. 11 as "Thomas Alva Edi­ and those attending will learn *cme- son day," as a tribute to the inventor who spent much of his early life in ed through this organisation.

Howe, who became one of America's most famous newspaper editors, wrote a book. The book was entitled, “The Story of a Country Town." It has become one of the classics of American literature and critics say it will'stand forever with Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter, Owens Wister's The Virgin­ ian, and Hamlin Garlands A Son of the Middle Border. Tonight I have been reading a foreword written by Ed. Howe in 1927 for the latest edition of the book. In the foreword appears this revealing statement: "In my present revel in recollections I recall that the book was written almost entirely at night, on the kitchen table in the house where I now live. I had little children then, lovable and noisy, and It was my custom to retire to the kit­ chen for quiet, and work at the ‘Story’ after a hard day's work on a daily paper.'"

Teachers help him to see how •life, liberty and the pursuit of hap­ piness’ are related to understanding and cooperation among men. Besides teaching facts, all social studies class­ es in Chicago aim to teach accepted values, together with the socially ap­ proved attitudes which parallel good citizenship. The development of qual­ ities which are essental to the citizen of tomorrow is receiving a great deal of attention in our schools under the heading, of Character Training. "In preparing the new American­ ism program, The American Legion and the office of the Superintendent worked hand in hand. Discussions centered around what the schools could do to further the plans of the Legion with which Chicago educators were heartily in accord. All agreed that a great deal had already been done, and that no opportunity for teaching patriotism is every con­ sciously overlooked in the Chicago schools. Each new day is opened with patriotic services including the salute to the flag, the pledge of allegiance, and the singing of our national an­ them. A sincere attempt is being made to supplement this dally pro­ gram with the type of activities which will lead each student to ac­ cept the kind of patriotism which comes from the heart If the school;: are successful, Tip loyalty’ will be ab- When all educational institutions, grade, high school and college, awake to their responsibility and insist upon instructors whose allegiance and pat­ riotism are above question and set up curricular training and extra curricu­ lar activities aimed at a fuller under­ standing and appreciation of demo­ cratic government, we will not have to worry about the encroachments of any “ism" in our national life. The trouble today is that too many students are leaving school with no definite convictions about our form of government and without proper reali­ zation of how easily the transition from a democracy to some other form can take place. Blind patriotism is better than a smattering of know­ ledge which sets up only the ideal.stic ambitions of other forms of gov­ ernment with a knowledge of their weaknesses. An intelligent patriot sm such as the Chicago schools are striv­ ing for embraces a fundamental loy­ alty to our heritage of free Christian government, together with a full knowledge of the means by which its essence may be destroyed through steps which seem to be meeting a particular problem at the time but which in the end mean a gradual dis­ integration of the entire system of democratic government. Mr. Johnson and his co-workcrs in Chicago deserve the praise of all. Upon the shoulders of today's youth will soon rest the future of the na­ tion.—Gratiot County News When Martha, who was flurried and an­ xious over many household duties, came to Christ Je­ sus with the complaint that Mary, who was sitting at his feet, was not helping her she received a lovmg re­ buke. The Master added (Luke 10:421, "But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her." His own human life being one of loving service, it is evident that he did not rebuke Martha because she was serving, but because she was "cumbered," or. as he said (10:41’), “careful and troubled about many things." A dictionary defines "to cumber,” in part, as “to hinder as by a weight or burden.” Since it is difficult to run a race when handicapped by excess weight, a contestant lays aside ev­ erything which tends to hinder or impede his progrtss. And since it is not easy to serve in any capacity when oppressed and disturbed, every­ thing which might interfere with clear thinking must be denied and overcome. Service will then be ren­ dered wiith a higher degree of effic­ iency, system and order. Christian Science teaches that the manner and quality of one’s serving are determin­ ed by one's thinking, its purpose and motive. When the motive for serv­ ing is love, household tasks and other activities become happy duties, and labor is ennobled. In the realm of Mind, where Love alone reigns and rules, burdens ait unknown. Martha was doing necessary work, and her desire to serve the welcome and honored guest was a worthy one. Had she first learned of him whose mission was to serve, the truth of his statement (Matthew 11:30), "My yoke is easy, and my burden is light,” she would have been lifted in­ to a fuller, clearer understanding of life and its purpose. She would have gained thereby the true sense of ser­ vice, which would have released her from cumbering oppression, brought calmness and order to her thought, and facilitated her work. Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, whose experience was rich in service, has declared (Miscellaneous Writings, pp. 29. 20), "This sense of Life il­ lumines our pathway with the rad­ iance of divine Love; heals man spon­ taneously, morally and physically,— exhaling the aroma of Jesus’ own words, ’Come unto me, all ye that la­ bor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest’.” When rightly solved, problems serve as steppingstones to higher altitudes of thought Thus tasks may become opportunities for joyous service. When one is burdened with a false sense of responsibility and looks to matter and material selfhood for strength, peace, and rest instead of to the Christ, one becomes weary. Christian Science, when rightly applied, uplifts and clears thought, changing dejection into happiness and turning sadness into joy. Self must have loomed large and Important in Martha's thought, making her feel burdened and oppressed. Mary elected to sit humbly at the feet of him who taught that the yoke of love is never irk­ some, nor are love’s labors cumber••One Thing la Needful.” When seemingly overwhelmed with work or care, men and women may turn from material sense testimony to the spiritual sense of being and experience peace and rest.

Thus they are en- . abled to realize the illusory nature of j oppressive or disturbing conditions. With vision cleared, they recognize troublesome care as never having been imposed upon man by his all­ loving Father, and they understand that disturbance and oppression are causeless and unsupported, since God is the only cause, and Truth supports nothing unlike good. Christian Science teaches that, when rightly viewed, burdens of hu­ man experience are light. Our own load is lighter when we are obedient to Paul’s injunction (Galatians 6:2), "Bear ye one another’s burdens." Love's way is the way of service. In the words of a hymn (Christian Sclency Hymnal, No. 324), we can pray. ‘Take my bands, and let them move At the impulse of Thy love." In "Miscellaneous Writings" Mrs. Eddy gives us her own method of finding relief. She writes (p. 133), “In the midst of depressing care and labor turn constantly to divine Love for guidance and find rest."—Chris­ tian Science Monitor.

There are four million active mem­ bers of Christian Endeavor today in every country of the world. They come from nearly a hundred different denominations. They speak hun­ dreds of languages and d a’ects, but the single alm Ln which thfy are united is to live better lives and do better service for Christ and the church. Christian Endeavor asks only to be more largely used, more fully trusted, more prayerfully supported and more diligently directed. We need your help! We face a crisis and invite you to share in the financial program of Christian En­ deavor. The Michigan Christian Endeavor Union and International society so­ licit annual gifts from members and friends and these gifts sustain the total ministry Of the movement. Pro­ portionate shares go to work of the city or county Union, to the Michigan State Union and to the Internat’onal and World’s Christian Endeavor Un­ ions. The budget for the combined need for the next year is $13,500 and is small indeed in comparison to the work accomplished. This budget Us to provide the ser­ vices of a General Secretary and a Field Secretary for the Michigan Un­ ion, to care for materials and service to more than 800 societies, to launch a larger extension program in service to new societies, to strengthen the program of evangelism, to provide service through the state office and to meet the finance needs of thirty area Unions through the state. It should be clear that Christian Endeavor must rely upon members in high school and young people's socie­ ties. upon former Christian Endeavorers or alumni, and upon older friends of youth in the community who may never have had any asso­ ciation with Christian Endeavor but know its value and importance, and therefore may help. Every dollar is expended width ut­ most care so as to insure the best possible results Ln spiritual and lead­ ership development in the lives of youth. During the period of Feb. 9-16 the young people of Nashville may come to you for your support of Christian Endeavor.

In these days of chang­ ing opinions and al­ tering standards, the words of the Apostle Paul to the young man Titus are most timely. He said. "Hold fast the Faithful Word.’ We may think of the shipwreck when some of the swimmers cling fearfully to the life­ craft lest they should sink in the storm The Word of God is our only saf­ ety in these perilous days. Man who claims to be a scientist, introduced hypothetical reasoning, printed them in books and passed them off as sci-Hold Fast The Faithful Word.” other men of learning appear with new theories which are intended to disprove the first and their books be­ come the standard of thinking. In the midst of all this rift, the precious Word of God stands sublime, secure and supreme.

The wond was full of them as it is now. Only the Word of God will anchor the soul. Only the Truth of God in the Bible will save men Fiasco. The halls of Congress never witnessed a more inglorious flop than the effort of Rep. Frank E Hook to connect Rep. Dies with the fascist outfit called the Silver Shirts, the head of which is William D. Pelley. The evidence of that supposed sin­ ister hook-up consisted of letters pur­ porting to have been written by Pelley to one David Payne, which the credulous Mr. Hook introduced into the Congressional Record. The let­ ters were instantly branded as for­ geries, and the proof quickly follow­ ed—Mayne himself telling the Dies committee that he forged them for the sum of $105. The money was put up by a man named Gardner Jaackson, lobbyist for Labor’s Non-parti­ san League, the political arm of the CIO. An agent of the Federal Bureau of Investigation also examined the letters and found that they where written on Mayne’s typewriter. The notary who was alleged to have taken the sworn statement as to the letters testified that he never did so and did not even know Mayne.

Members of the House tried to get Mr. Hook to withdraw the documents which several congressmen had call­ ed spurious. But Mr. Hook not only refused, but insisted they were gen­ uine—and even went so far as to make the wild and ridiculous state­ ment that If there was any forgery then the Dies committee “was guilty of conspiracy to bribe a person to commit forgery to cover up their past "Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be Later he asked unanimous consent able by sound doctrine both to ex­ hort and to convince the gainsayera.” to expunge the letters from the re­ cord; but the House would not give Titus 1:9.—Today's Gospel Truth, by him such an easy "out.” So the Irving G.

That effort to smear the committee has been going on almost from the start. A motley lot of left-wingers were engaged in that effort, including communists, sit-down strike leaders, labor radicals and various New Deal politicians who catered to such elements. These politicians did not like some of the things brought out—for example, the communist connections of some high officials, and Miss Perkins’ kindness to the notorious communist Harry Bridges. But the public liked to learn all there was to know, whether about communists or fascists, and public opinion was overwhelming for the continuation of the Dies committee— the 16 to 1 vote in the House showed that The forged letter fiasco ser­ ves only to strengthen that public sentiment Altogether the episode was fortunate — for everybody but Mr. Hook. The whole country knows more than it did a week ago.—Adrian Daily Telegram. "Unspeakable The Psalmist wrote Peace.” (Psalms 119.: 165) —• "Great peace have they which love thy law: and noth-, ing shall offend them." In a world tom by strife, warfare, and dissen­ sion. the thought of peace stands out as a beacon light, leading mankind toward higher and better conditions of human thinking and living. As the Psalmist's words indicate, peace is the reward of right thinking— love for and obedience to the law of God, divine Love, without which there can be no true and enduring peace among men or nations. The Psalmist also wrote (Psalmsi 37:37), "Mark the perfect man, and, behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace." In the con­ sciousness which constitutes the per­ fect man, there is no room for belief in strife and warfare. This con­ sciousness is filled with ideas of' righteousness and peace. The per­ fect man is spiritual, not material. As this truth dawns upon human thought there will be manifested true and permanent peace, our spiritual heritage. In "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures” (p. 264) Mary Baker Eddy states "Spiritual living and blessesdness are the onlyevidences, by which we can recog­ nize true existence and feel the un­ speakable peace which comes from an all-absorbing spiritual love." AU foUowens of Christ, Truth, should lovingly accept St Paul’s in­ junction (Rom. 12:13), “Live peace­ ably with all men." When this be­ comes the motivating impulse of all men. there will be no more war. Strife and dissension, which have no legitimate place, will cease, and the true brotherhood of man be estab­ lished. This ideal condition is not too transcendental to be practical. Peace is a present possibility with all those who love God's law, and live in ac­ cordance therewith. To "live peace­ ably with all men” requires a spir­ itually right estimate of one’s fellow men. To see God aright is also to see man aright. In the proportion that this view is held before one, warfare will cease. There can be no peace in wrong thinking Therefore, to be at peace means to guard one’s own thinking, admitting as real tally that which is perfect and good. The elements of evU—sin, discord, and disease—ob­ tain only in wrong human thinking and must be excluded from thought, if one would find peace. Perfection and freedom, joy and peace, must be constantly affirmed as the evidences of righteous thinking. Peace is a spiritual quality, which belongs to and is constantly manifested by the When two individuals engage in strife, it is because they have not learned the law of Love, and have not sufficiently protected themselves from the mesmerism of wrong think- A.

It is unreal and utterly false, though many or one believe it Evil is never power it is never law, for all power and all law belong to God. The great need is that men should learn and steadily conform their thinking to this spiritual fact, des­ pite any evidence to the contrary. In 'The. First Church of Christ, Sci­ entist and Miscellany” (p. 278) Mrs. Eddy writes: "Peace is the promise ana reward of rightness. Governmeets have no right to engraft into civiliatlon the burlesque of uncivil economics. War is in itself an evil, barbarous, devilish. Victory in error is defeat tn Truth;" and on the next page she continues: "Christian Science reinforces Christ’s sayings and doings. The Principle of Christian Science demonstrates peace." Mrs. Eddy was an earnest advocate of peace, constantly working for the harmony and well-being of humanity. Christian Scientists, having her ex­ ample and loving admonitions con­ stantly before them, strife to exclude from their thought even the faintest beginnings cf that which might pro­ duce discord. Before one can “live peaceably with all men,” he must learn to live peaceably with himself. This requires Christianly scientific thinking, which excludes error and discord, offering in their place, har­ mony and peace. Where there is disease, there can be no lasting peace. Where there is anger, jealousy, or revenge, there can be no peace. Real peace includes health, harmony, and freedom, phy­ sical and mental. As one studies and applies the teachings of the Bible and Science and Health, he finds the only recipe for enduring peace. This appears in proportion as one overcomes the ele­ ments in human thought which en­ gender strife. To know God aright and man as God’s image and likeness inculcates peace and harmony.

Have you been kind and thoughtful, or .mean and thoughtless? Have you kept an even temper, or have you lost your temper when things have gone wrong? Have you been pleasant. or grouchy? Have you Inspired those whom you have met, or have you depressed and discouraged them? Have you done something creative and worthwhile, or have you wasted the day with petty things? Have you been square and fair in what you've done? Have you increased the happiness­ moments in the lives of others, or have you thought only of self ?

In a prepared address to the Union Teague Club, he asserted that tne Federal Trade commissison was plan­ ning an inquiry into national adver­ tising in its study of distribution costs. Barton said such an inquiry con­ stituted a danger to business and democratic institutions because: "There are men in the Federal Trade Commission and the Depart­ ment of Agriculture who hate nation­ al advertising, who want to destroy it because national advertising sup­ ports the free American press, and the free American radio. “If they can destroy national ad­ vertising they know that they will end the independence of the press and radio,” he added. Rep. Barton, who also is an execu­ tive of a New York advertising firm, charged that under the New Deal “the destruction of our financial mar­ kets is almost complete" and asserted that "grass is beginning to push up through the cracks in the pavement of Wall Street and LaSalle Street” . “Today!” Well, here we are again today! Yesterday is gone, tomorrow may never come—and so every living person has today, this hou**, this minute at his disposal. We differ greatly, however, in the •’•ays we use this measure of time called today. We differ in what we put into it and therefore, of course, in what we take out of it Some idle away their chances, others use them to serve and to move onward and upward in life. Lost time is like water that has passed beneath the bridge, is gone forever. Today should be used with purpose! We should ask Ourselves. 'To what purpose can my life be given? To what ultimate purpos?e” To amass knowledge .or silver or gold is no ultimate purpose. In short, ma­ terialism fails to supply the need of man because it is not more than man. But there are some fundamental, unchanging facts that remain for to­ day and every day! Folks have al­ ways looked for one, who is higher , than “I." If you want a life of ser­ vice and purpose, tell folks the “way out” to higher ground by the one who said. “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life.” (John 14:6). Many hearts will be blessed and you your­ self will receive a greater blessing. If you want to "get tn" on this you must pass through the door. Jesus who was verily God and verily man, said *7 am the door; by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved.” (John 20.9). We enter this door by Faith.

Renew The Governor Dickinson in Pledge. a proclamation is ask­ ing. that all citizens of Michigan on. Sunday, Feb. 18, take the pledge anew. What sort of pledge? A pledge of allegiance to the state of Michigan and to the United States of America. He has dedicated the per­ iod, Feb. 1 to Feb. 22 to "American­ ism," with Feb. 18 as "Citizenship Day." . The Governor again does well. Too many of us either take our blessings as matter of course and give little heed to our own responribUtiea or too many of us sit around and growl because the blessings we do have are not greater and yet do nothing what­ ever to maintain those we have. It has become quite the custom for far too many in this country to ignore their responsibilities, to let matters drift—into the hands of those who have an object quite contrary to the spirit of America and the foundation upon which America is built Too many of us sit idly by while persons with’ axes to grind take over the pow­ er which belongs to us all. They for­ get that It was only 21 men who took over the nearly 180.000,000 peo­ ple of Russia and made serfs of them, took away all the liberties they had, now keep them ground down to ig­ norance and near animal condition. Meanwhile, in this country groups are forming, have already formed, and all of these groups whether they meet in the parlors of the rich and the so-called intellectual or in the cellars of the slums, have definite purposes for organization. Theirs is the intent to overthrow or at least to change our form of government, to give us something such as some foreign country has. It matters not at all that some would give us Com­ munism, others Fascism and still others Naziism. the results are iden­ tical. Each and all of them lead to dictatorship, to slavery, rather than the freedom upon which this land of ours was founded and still ma ntains in greater degree than any other on earth. Those groups are not idle. Taking advantage of our principle of free­ dom of the press and freedom of speech, they broadcast to far too many and too willing ears theories of government entirely foreign to our ideals. So it is wise indeed that on the day set apart by the Governor of Michigan we shall give a bit of thought to America, our own coun­ try and our own institutions and tra­ ditions and rededicate ourselves, our lives and our fortunes to the perpet­ uation of them to generations yet un­ born.—Grand Rapids Herald. Vandenberg's Ben. Vandenberg's adBid. dress in St Paul Sat­ urday evening, regard­ ed as his first bid for the Republican nomination for the Presidency, was designed to attract the support of independents and conservative Demo­ crats as well as voters within his own party. He declared that he was answering the question of "how much of the New Deal to scrap and how much to save" and he added that “We do not weaken our indictment of the New Dea! by finding good in it On the contrary, we strengthen our indict­ ment by displaying a sense of dis­ crimination and good faith. The an­ swer is that we must scrap the bad and improve the good." He called for the government to quit competing with private business and for a reduction of regulation to the point necessary in the obvious public interest He asked for amend­ ments to the Securities and Exchange Act that will retain protections against dubious securities but at the same time remove needless obstacles to warranted financing. As to labor he would have the judicial and prosecuting functions of the National Labor Relations Board separated and would get rid of a system that fosters friction in labor relationships. He asserted that he would "jealously protect every essen­ tial element of free collective bar­ gaining." The Armor The world is recognizOf God. ing the necessity for spiritual armament if permanent peace is to be achieved. Today men are searching for that which will save the world from sink­ ing further into darkness and des­ pair; they are seeking a formula that will deliver them from constantly re­ curring misunderstanding, hatreds, and unnecessary hardships and suf­ fering. Strangely enough, after near­ ly twenty centuries of Christianity among men. many are turning their attention to various systems of thought in their efforts to find a rem­ edy for the world’s troubles, evident­ ly forgetting that Christianity, as taught and practiced by Cnrist Jesus holds within itself the perfect and unfailing answer to every human problem. These systems are frequently op­ posed to the teachings of pure Chris­ tianity, which is based on the entire­ ly spiritual nature of God and His creation, man and the universe. Such systems, being mainly materialistic, may even deny the existence of a supreme God, Spirit But material sense cannot conceive of that which is outside its supposititious domain, and, in reality, there is no such sense. Whatever this sense testifies to is but an erroneous dream—a false concept of the real and enduring. God. Truth, cannot be conscious of error, the supposed opposite of Him­ self, any more than can the sun ad­ mit the darkness it displaces. God is known through spiritual sense only, and His ideas are forever untouched by the false beliefs of mortal mind. Spiritual armament is closely con­ nected w.th spiritual understanding; indeed, they are inseparable. Mere human goodness, although imitating the divine, lacks the spiritual impetus so characteristic of the life of our Master and Way-shower, Christ Jesus. Pure Christianity or Christian Sci­ ence is wholly practical in the solv­ ing of human problems. Efforts bas­ ed on the belief that matter possesses reality and is capable of intelligent judgment and action are vain, and must end in disappointment and dis­ tress. Christian Science heals and saves because it is based on the di­ vine Principle on which Christ Jesus founded his work. This Principle is God, divine Love, outside and above all material speculation, doctrine, or belief. In her book, "Unity of Good,” the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science Mary Baker Eddy, writes (pp. 9. 10): “ What is the car­ dinal point of the difference in my metaphysical system?

Emfried Halvorson, who are violin makers at Nashville, Michigan, called on O. J. Huber last week and went with him to his farm, where they secured a curty hard maple stump for violin making. This stump w 11 furn'sh wood enough to make $2,000 worth of vio'ins. Previous to the war in Eu­ rope they were procuring the r wood from Germany but can not get it there now. Meyers and Halvurson have il stu­ dio, residence and workshop in an old brick residence in Nashville. They are well known to violinists and oth­ er musicians, not only in Michigan but In all sections of the United States. They are modem exponents of the viox n makers of three centures ago living in Europe who did not merely fill orders but strove to create enduring works of art, and it is from models of these old violin makers, Stradivarius. Joseph Guarneri, Stain­ er. Ficker, Lyput, that the two make violins, attempting to approach as far as possible the hand work of these masters of various nations. Meyers, the senior member of the firm, haa lived among violins since he was 24 years old. Beginning at eight to* learn the instrument, he decided six years later that he preferred to make the instrument and was apprenticed to a Chicago firm for three years to learn the trade at $3.50 a week. He also agreed not to open a shop of his own within 10 years. It was while he was in the employment of Lewis & Son, Chicago, as appraiser and head of their violin department that he met his present jiertner, Halvarson, who had come to this country from Sweden where he had learned repairing and making of violins. The two became friends and, believing that by study and research better modem violins could be produced, they formed a partnership. They agreed, too, that the serenity of a small town was better suited to work of such a nature, and since 1929 they have been in this state after a survey of a number of middle western states. Nashville has been their ROY EVERETT RENAMED TO CATCH STRAY DOGS Roy Everett, who was Barry coun­ ty dog warden three years until the office was discontinued a year ago, has resumed his work, catching stray dogs, on appointment by Sheriff Glenn Bera.

Instead, this is the result of a long-established policy of the Bell System ... a policy that has always sought to provide the public with the best possible service at the lowest possible price. America endorses this policy by using the telephone about 70 million times a day. . . .

In this g.x-year period it is shown that 315 mai-ing pel.-nit, valuable banks were closed, of which three 877,223 deposttow with total deposits amounting to $294,658,000. These de­ positors were saved what they had entrusted to the banks because of the operations of FDIC which was con­ ceived and put through by Senator Vandenberg. Those 60 banka which closed in 1939 had a total of 393,079 depositors with total deposits aincHWltin|| to $157,704,000, all protected against loss by FDIC. Meanwhile. FDIC was bringing about the merging of some of the weaker banks with those in more sound condition. Some other banks were liquidated outright and their depositors paid off by the llquiatlon of their assets aided by funds from FDIC . Last Dec. 31 no fewer than 13,589 bonks were insured in FDIC and FDIC had a surplus of $163,411,165 with which to keep on protecting depositors should still oth­ er insured banks get themselves into difficulties. Of all the New Deal measures this FDIC, fathered by the Republican Senator Vandenberg of Michigan, has proved itself the most practical, the one .which really has saved money for persons who deposit their funds in banks for safe keeping.

Right Expec- It is related in the tation. third chapter of the Acts of the Apostles that one day Peter and John went up together to the temple to pray. At the gate of the temple lay a beggar a man lame from birth, who was carried daily by his friends to the temple gate, where he asked alms of those who entered. Seeing Peter and John, the lame man asked an Blms of them. Whereupon Peter, with that keen spiritual intuition which his dis­ cipleship with the Master had devel­ oped, perceiving the man's true need, said to him, "Look on us.” And the beggar "gave heed .unto them, ex­ pecting to receive something of them."' Then came that wonderful declaration of true charity. "Silver and gold have I none,” said Peter, "but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk." And, immed­ iately, the man was healed so that he arose and "entered . . . into the tem­ ple” with Peter and John, -“walking, and leaping, and praising God.” The record, beautiful in its simplic­ ity, is profound in the universality of its message, and fs of deep signifi­ cance to us today. Not the least of its lessons is the attitude of the lame man himself. "He gave heed unto them, expecting to receive some­ thing” of the disciples, the narrative reads. "Expecting to receive!" Lameness and poverty must have seemed very real to this man crip­ pled from birth. What if, after years of suffering and lack, he had been too absorbed in the apparent hopelessness of his condition to have given heed to Peters injunction ? What if he had failed expectantly to look to them? Would he not have missed altogether the great blessing that was so richly bestowed upon him? Was not his very expectancy of good, in some measure part of the demonstration that followed? Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, writes in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (pp. 120. 131’ “Truth should not seem so surprising and unnatural as error and error should not seem so real as truth. Sickness should not seem so real as health.” Christian Science is restoring the sick and sinning to their rightful her­ itage of health, purity, and joy thru the understanding that in infin te good there can be no evil; in infinite Mind, no confusion or wrong; in in­ finite Love, no pain or sorrow. Expectation of good is a definitepart of this healing work. "When destination is desirable,” Mrs. Eddy has written, "expectation speeds our progress” (Science and Health, p. 426). Expectation is more than a passive, wishful waiting for some­ thing to happen; it is a positive, ac­ tive quality which looks for good to be made manifest A woman in great need physically, mentally, and financially, turned to Christian Science in her extremity, after all else had failed. Would Christian Science meet her need ? she inquired eageriy, but fearfully. Would it answer her questions? Would it give her an understanding of God that would "make life worth living"? Lovingly and confidently, she war. told that it would do so. 'F.k-pect good," said the Christian Scientist with whom she was talking, "because God is good, and good, therefore, is unlimited, universal;” and the heal­ ing of tlie lame man of long ago was cited. He had asked for aid, even as she was now asking; he had expect­ ed to receive it, and he did receive That unique American operation— tapping maple trees to obtain sap for Kcmswm Up; Expense* Down. sugar and syrup—ought to be put to Taxpayers who prsfer their govern­ full use in Michigan in early spring th's year because of a predicted up­ ment reports in terms of dollars-andcents may find much of interest in turn In demand and prices. a summary covering the year 1939 good out-of-state demand are made issued by Harry F.

So reads the promise God made to Joshua (Joshut 1:9), when He appointed him to succeed Moses. God's loving assurance of His presence and power, His promise to His beloved children, is unequivocal inviolable, unchanging, irresistible; and through the ages it has been un­ failingly fulfilled to those who have sought Him. It Expect good! Expect it, now! is ours, because good is man’s pres­ ent and everlasting heritage from his infinitely loving, infinitely wise, infinitely good Father-Mother God. God's law governs all, today and forever. Man, created in the image and likeness of God, was given do­ minion over all the earth. Let us utilize the understanding of God ond mon which the study of Christian Science unfolds, and expect God’s will to "be done in earth, as it is in hea­ ven" (Matthew 6:10), bringing goodness, freedom, health, prosper­ ity, happiness, justice, and peace among men and nations.

You cannot help small men by tearing down big men. . You cannot help the poor by de­ stroying the rich. You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than your income. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred. You cannot establish sound social security on borrowed money. You cannot build character and courage by taking away men’s init­ iative and independence. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves.—Dr. Hugh 8. Magill, in Cedar Rapids, Ir., Gazette. “Come.” This great invitation word appears, within the pages of the Bible over 1,900 times. We find it away back in Genesis, and it goes right along through the Scrip­ tures. Prophets apostles and preach­ ers have been ringing it out all thru the ages. Then down toward the end of the Bible, Christ tells John to put in one more irritation. "Let him that heareth say, Come." Rev. 22:17. If you have heard and received the message yourself, pass it on to those near you; your religion ought to affect someone else too. We have to get rid of the idea of the world being reached by ministers alone. All those who know salva­ tion’s story should pass the message along. "Let him that Is athirst, come.” Oh, this is a thirsty world. There is much unholy thirst But Christ offers to quench your thirst by giv­ ing you the water of life which Is not found in a natural well. The last in­ vitation given to this old, thirsty world is this; "Whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely." Who will take this water of life? Who will receive Jesus Christ into their hearts? This Christ who sat­ isfies all the longings of our poor hearts. Who w“ Ireceive? That is the question. You have the power to accept or reject The invitation is for you: “Come." "Him that cometh to Me I will in no wise cast out" John 6:37.—To­ day's Gospel Truth, by Irving G. Wahlstrom. America "Lent has returned Swings Baek again, and at what a To Religion, time!” said Carlyle B. Haynes, president of the Home Bible Study League of Lansing, in a Lenten address . “Let us as a nation return to Him,” he appealed, and stated that there is a definite swing back toward religion in the United States. “After a genera­ tion of pleasure-seeking, joy-riding, immorality and crime, Americans feel their need of God," he said. Quot­ ing from the report of the Crime Commissison of Michigan, he read: "In 1850 this country was the most law-abiding in the world. Now it is by far the most lawless in the world. To combat tills condition we need, not more laws, for we are over-bur­ dened with laws now, but a return to the doctrine preached by Jesus Christ.” Haynes declared that evi­ dences were piling up tha tthere is a definite swing back to the Old Book that grandfather used to read to his family morning and evening for fam­ ily worship—the book that made the strong characters that built the United States into the strong nation that it has become. But during the years this book has been neglected and consequently American character has deteriorated and we have become the most criminal nation in the world, not excepting the Zulus of Af­ rica. Another evidence of a reaction from the irreligion of the past generation, Mr. Haynes asserted, wan the res­ ponse the people in Michigan are making on the free services of the Home Bible Study League, of which be is president Due to the depres­ sion of the past decade, and the war so brutally waged over moot of Eu­ rope, me:, have lost faith in themsel- • ves and look out upon the future with fear and dread. Wishing to play its part in re-establishing the faith of men in God, and strengthening Am­ erican character and guide in the stu­ dy of the Book of Books, the League has offered a free “Self-Help Bible Course." Its finances and facilities have been taxed in supplying the calls from all over the States, Haynes added, “But we still hold our offer even though its response has been greater than we anticipated. The course can still be obtained by writ­ ing The Home Study Bible League, Box 900, Lansing, Mich. Dept H.3. Deflated. The recent meeting of the American Youth Congress at Washington Is probably the be­ ginning of the end of that organiza­ tion—at least in is present character and with its present leadership. Like every other organization that openly welcomes communists, and to any de­ gree sympathizes with their views has lost whatever influence it had. That influence never was very much. The Youth Congress was not a national, but rather a regional or­ ganization most of its members be­ ing in the eastern seaboard states. At the recent Washington meeting it is said that fully 90 per cent of the del­ egates came from New York City— a medley of radical youths, largely with un-American names, whose man­ ners and conduct left unpleasant memories in Washington. In the middle and western states the American Youth Congress wou d have attracted scant attention if it had not been for the fact that it was looked upon sympathetically by the President, was befriended by Miss Perkins, and was the chief political pet of Mm. Roosevelt who attended its meetings and sang its praises. Mrs. Roosevelt (though now prob­ ably much sadder and wiser) acutal­ ly invited several of the delegates to the White House, pressed the leading hotels to take them in a a dollar a day, and through her influence the military authorities at Fort Meyer, across the riVer, had to quarter 500 of them. Army omcers, hotel men and White House ushers are said to be unanimous in hoping they won’t have any such guests again. As to the membership of the orga­ nization, *t has been enormously ex­ aggerated. The pretended member­ ship of millions was arrived at by adding up all the supposed member­ ships of a great number of organiza­ tions that were alleged to be affiliat­ ed with it or participating in its ac­ tivities . In many, cases those claims appear wholly false. In a public statement by the head of a rival youth organization at Washington a list of important young people’s orga­ nizations was published which had been falsesly listed as affiliates, but which really had no connection with the America;. Youth Congress. Among these were the Christian En­ deavor Union, the Young Women’s Christian Association, the Giri Scouts and the American Baptist Publication society. The actual membership consists mostly of young radicals from east­ ern cities, largely from New York, among whom communist influence has been notoriously strong. That was made clear some time ago at New York when the organization condemned fascism but refused to condemn communism, and again at Washington when the congress refus­ ed to consider a resolution condemn­ ing Russia's criminal attack upon Finland. It was made still clearer when the secretary of the congress declared— amid a great burst of applause—that it would continue to welcome com­ munists and that the Young Commun­ ist League and other similar bodies would not be ousted. Two Important things resulted from the Washington meeting. . The first was that it evoked a very fine statesmanlike speech from Presi­ dent Roosevelt, in which he boldly denounced Russian and Nazi despot­ ism and soundly spanked the Youth Congress for opposing loans to Fin­ land on the ground that it was “an attempt to force America into the im­ perialistic war.’’ He told the members of ths con- stout" He alto wisely warned them not to pua resolution, on subjects that they "have not thought through and on which they could not potolbly have complete knowledge" The speech ot the President ot the United SUU* was received with weak applauae, and a few booa: but later the group gave John L. Lewis a wild ovation when he bitterly and cynical­ ly replied to the President ’s speech, point by point, and invited them to join forces with the CIO’s "Nonparti­ san League." The second important result was what we mentioned at the start—the deflation of the American Youth Con­ gress The public has got its num­ ber. It is now in process of splitting the tn two, by the withdrawal of “ large body of members whe do care to have anything * communist-front org who do not care to be t •led Red “fellow travelers.” If there ia any call fo.’ u not Ion youth organization (which in dvbnt able) that call can *»cst be w v?red by some new organization that con fairly claim to represent the yomh »f America. The American Youth Con gress certainly does not and never did. It is simply a radical pressuregroup, inspired and influenced by old­ er and smarter heads. In its present form it is a detriment and a liability to any cause,that it supports.—Ad­ rian Daily Telegram. . Have We When a little Learned To child in Sunday Pray Practically ? school, the writer was requested to memorize a verse from the Bible ev­ ery week. One about Daniel which appealed to her, and which she re­ peated again and again, declared (Daniel 6:10), “He kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God." It was many years before she learned, in Christian Science, the farreaching importance of prayer, and saw how Daniel's understanding of God, gained through prayer, enabled him in a hour of great need to prove God’s all-power and ever-prescnce. Every Christian Scientist learns that, as Mary Baker Eddy says on page 16 of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," "The highest prayer is not one of faith merely; it is de­ monstration. Such prayer heats sicknesss, and must destroy sin and death." He comes to understand in a degree at least, the meaning of the Apostle Paul’s admonition (I Thessa­ lonians .5:16-18): "Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasinng. In every thing give thanks.” Mrs. Eddy throughout her writings stresses the importance of prayer. In Science and Health she has devoted the entire first chapter to a discus­ sion of prayer. Prayer, in Christian Science, is praise, to God, from a heart overflowing with gratitude. It is a joyous acknowledgment and re­ cognition of God’s ever-presence and power, and of His wonderful love, love that dissolves all error. Prayer is an assurance born of faith and under­ standing that God is All, and that there is nothing beside him. Prayer is humility that lifts thought above the false sense of material selfhood and enables one to perceive the spirit­ uality of the pniverse and man, as the offspring of Spirit Daniel prayed three times a day. Through his constant communion with God the light of righteousness shone forth in word and deed. This was an influence which reached even to the king, who, when Daniel was cast into the den of lions, said to him (Daniel 6:16), "Thy God whom thou servest continually, he will deliver thee.’ How certain it is that every’ good and righteous thought is a holy influence that is never lost Daniel, in that trying experience, so clearly realized God’s presence and His ever-enfold ng love that hie c—isciousness admitted no suggestion of another presence. There was on re­ sentment against his betrayers, no fear of the lions. He proved his un­ derstanding of God as Love. Mrs. Eddy has written in Science and Health (p. 180), •‘When man is gov­ erned by God, the ever-present Mind, who understands all things man known that with God all things are possible.’ “ ence of God that this understanding destroyed the fear of lust, envy, sel­ fishness, and hatred. Herein is a wonderful lesson for us. The law of God. which protected Daniel in a den of Hons, is ever available to all and is applicable to every situation. Throughout his earthly experience Jesus was ever in close communion with God. He spent many hours in prayer. Oftentimes he sought the solitude of the mountains that he might be alone with God.

Will Coolbaugh and former resident of Nashville, who has many old friends around here, has sent Mra. Coolbaugh a newspaper clipping of an interest­ ing sportsmen's drive Sunday, Jan. V, on the jackrabbits of that sec­ tion. which netted 800 of the pests. The story follows: "Members of the Lincoln County Wildlife Protective association which sponsored a rabbit drive northwest of Lincoln Sunday afternoon, were high­ ly pleased with the results of the af­ ternoon's work, more than 800 rab­ bits having beer, killed in the drive. An estimated 300 men took part in the drive which covered three sec­ tions of land in Marion and Battle Creek townships. Permission of the 15 landowners had been given for the hunt and all cooperated with the Wildlife association in promoting the enterprise. Using clubs or shotguns, the driv­ ers moved steadily along, killing the jackrabbits as they were scared up. After the kill, Lincoln Boy Scouts picked up the dead animals and piled them into trucks which had been pro­ vided. Sold to Oscar Erickson at Vesper, the jackrabbits brought $48. all the money to be turned into the Scout cabin fund for purchase of materials which went into the building. It was estimated that between 200 and 300 more rabbits were overlooked and were left dead cm the fields. Since the very successful comple­ tion of the rabbit drive, farmers from all sections of the county have called in to the Wildlife association officers requesting similar drives in their communities. It is possible that other rabbit hunts similar to Sunday’s may be arranged for the near future. Rabbits are unusually numerous this year, farmers report, and are do­ ing great damage in all sections of the county. Where there are young trees they are eating the bark, thus damaging the trees. Shocks of feed in the fields are also being eaten by the rabbits to Buch an extent that a shortage may develop. Others say that the damage will continue and will be transferred to wheat fields and crops which may be planted in early spring.” —Mrs. Carrie Neff of Vermontville, 68, resident always of Eaton county, passed away in her sleep Feb. 20.

Now with another World war going on it may be inter­ esting to check on some of the unus­ ual uses of paper during the first Worid war. Here are a few of the rather unexpected ways in which pa­ per was used. Paperboard bodies for ambulances served as a substitute for wood, re­ ducing the danger of casualties caus­ ed by flying wood splinters when am­ bulances were struck by shells. Putteea and leggings taken from German soldiers were made of sul­ phite paper reinforced with a few cot­ ton threads. Paper hand grenades carried an ex­ plosive of four ounces of TNT. The Bureau of Standards develop­ ed a paper airplane fabric as a sub­ stitute for linen. Paper vests were worn by aviators because of their light weight A paper haversack and grenade carrier were part of a German sol­ dier's equipment. With modem man’s Ingenuity one wanders what new*uses for paper will be discovered and put into service during the present conflict Paper And The World War. When Christ was on earth folks came to Him and asked what they should do to work the works of God. He had been telling them to la­ bor not for the meat that perisheth but for that meat that endureth unto everlasting life. Then they asked Him, "What shall we do that we may work the works of God?” What did Jesus tell them to do ? Did He tell them to go and feed the hungry, to clothe the naked, to visit the widow and fatherless in their af­ fliction? Perhaps you may say that is according to Scripture, "pure and unde filed religion." Granted, but something comes before that That is all right and necessary in its place, but when these men wanted to know what they had to do to inherit eter­ nal life, Jesus said: "This is the work of God that ye believe on him whom he hath sent” (John 6:29). Christ Himself, is the one W’hom God hath •ent Will you believe on Him, now? God hath put the offer of salvation in such a way that the whole world can lay hold of it All men can be­ lieve. A lame man may not be able to visit the sick but he can believe. A blind man by reason of his infirm­ ity cannot do many things but he can believe. A deaf man can believe. A dying man can believe. God has put salvation bo simply that the young and the old. the wise and the foolish, the rich and the poor, can all believe if they will. Do you think that Christ would have come down from heaven, would have gone to Gethsemane and to Gol­ gotha, would have suffered as He did, if any man could have worked his way up to heaven? I think that if you will give this five minutes’ con­ sideration you will see that if man could have saved himself, Christ need not have suffered at all. Remember, too, what Christ says: "He that climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber." (John 10:1). Christ has marked out the way to God. He has opened up a new and shining way, and He wants us to take His way. Certainly the attempt to work our way into heaven is "climb­ ing up some other way”—is it not? Boasting of self will be excluded in heaven. If you and I ever get there it will be by the sovereign grace of God. Will you receive His grace?— Today's Gospel Truth, by Irving G. Wahlstrom. "Sovereign Grace.” A Town Saves The 8,600 residents Itself. of Ware, Mass., are celebrating the divi­ dend they are receiving for their courage and self-confidence when they risked their savings two years ago in a “Save Ware" movement Their community owned factory. The Ware Industries, is doing bo well that the directors not only have declared a dividend but they have asked the town's assessor to triple the plant's assessed valuation this year. That means it will pay three times the taxes it paid a year ago. The Ware Industries is a tribute to New England initiative. The concern was foxmed two years ago when res­ idents of Ware learned that the Otis Mills, a large textile concern, had been sold to southern industrialists as so many New England firms had been. The result threatened to be the seme as it had been elsewhere in the east Machinery would be shipped south and Ware would be left with an empty factory building and a lot of people out of work. But the townspeople of Ware will­ ed that it be otherwise and it was. Led by a bank president and the head of another textile mill that was purchasing power from the Otis Mills, they made a deal with the new owners. For $50,000 they were to ob­ tain a controlling interest in the mill and the power and water rights to operate it The first day $20,000 was raised by popular subscription and residents dug into their savings ac­ counts to raise the other $30,000 in 11 day. There was no underwriting by wealthy persons; all the money came in small amounts and virtually every family bought stock. There was no campaign for funds. The Ware people were simply told what the situation was and how it could be met A year ago the company had to borrow $27,000 to meet a loss caused by flood and hurricane but all its debts are now paid along with $7,000 in taxes. The old mill property now houses 17 diversified industries in­ stead of the one it formerly accom­ modated and it is covered by a mil­ lion dollar insurance policy. Resi­ dents who formerly worked there in the manufacture of cotton textiles now make hats, shoe dressing, wool­ en goods, and wood and metal pro­ ducts. The annual report showed that employment had been tripled and the combined payrolls of the 17 concerns showed an even greater per­ centage of increase. The success of the residents of Ware, "the town that can’t be lick­ ed,” is in sharp contrast with a some­ what similar enterprise undertaken about the same time at Jersey Home­ steads, N. J., under the auspices of the federal government. There- a garment factory was established, workers were brough from New York and a town built with the aid of government finances. Some 200 new houses were built The under­ taking was started in 1936 but it failed. Last November machinery in the factory was sold at auction. It was estimated that the undertaking cost the government nearly two mil­ lion dollars. Jersey Homesteads was an experi­ ment in social planning under gov­ ernment auspices. Ware is a monu­ ment to private initiative. The re­ cord of the two enterprises tells which is the most successful.—Adnan Daily Telegrom. Census Monkey It won't be long beBuslnesH. fore the horde of census enumerators will descend upon this land like a cloud of locusts. The decennial cen­ sus so far as enumerating the popu­ lation is concerned is a wise and use­ ful, even necessary performance. In­ deed, none will object to telling his age, where born, occupation, color, religious preference, married or sin­ gle, number of children and their ages and such general things of use­ ful and not too intimate a character. But the census enumerator who will be calling upon you. unless the fire started by Senator Tobey of New Hampshire knocks it out, will ask you all sorts of intimate questions which are none of his or anybody CISC's business. And you’ll have to answer those questions truthfully or be subject to fine and imprisonment. It is just another instance of the New Deal’s method of nosing into the affairs of all the people and thus hav­ ing that information at hand for the use of the government in any way it may see fit or for the purpose of plac­ ing you on the "sucker list" for ev­ ery sort of fraudulent scheme which somebody may conceive. Let us see just * few of the ques­ tions which the enumerators will be empowered to uk: All the usual cen­ sus questions plus your income and how obtained, all sorts of persona! and family details. And now is pro­ posed a special housing census with such question as: Have you a refrig­ erator and what kind, have you a ra­ dio, do you receive or pay monthly rentals, cost of your electricity, gas and other utilities, your mortgage in­ debtedness and how often do you make payment on it. how much and what kind of fuel do you burn and how much does it cost you? These are just a few.pf the questions you must answer truthfully • or be fined or imprisoned. The enumerator will tell you this information all will be kept secret, that if he divulges any of it he, too, will be Subject to fine and imprison­ ment But he will not tell you that his superiors have the power and au­ thority to publish the informat on in every newspaper In the land if they desire or to give it to anybody who may be interested in knowing all about you and your circumstances. But they won’t do bo? Won’t they? Heretofore they have done so. Indeed, the President of the United Statee heretofore by executive order has made available to the Congress and ®o to anybody who desires to know, and to other governmental ag­ encies information which the law it­ self has stamped as "confidential." He has the power to do this with the information obtained through this approaching census. It’s another of those New Deal things by which the private affairs of the individual citi­ zen may be made known to the pub­ lic, to any political power who de­ sires that information and to any others who may have uses of their own for it But remember: You must answer the questions and truthfully lest you be subject to fine and im­ prisonment.—Grand Rapids Her&ld. ------ o------ "There Is No It is believed by some Power Apart persons that many of From God.” the direful things which . intermittently occur in what is termed mortal ex­ istence are visitations of divine wrath, and that others -just happen by chance. Those people who appear to escape the effects of either or both of such visitations are regarded as being lucky. Also, it is strongly con­ tended that material conditions arc the most potent factors in shooing the destinies of men and nations. All such beliefs are falsities, which are Incurred by the consideration of mat­ ter as being real and endowed with intelligence and power. The discovery of Christian Science by Mary Baker Eddy in the year 1866 brought to light spiritual truths which are of vital importance to man­ kind. Of these, three in particular are here cited, namely, that God's power is beneficient and is the only real power; that Man. created in God's likeness, reflects Him and ex­ presses His power; and that matter has but a supposititious existence, being the subjective state of mortal mind, of which St Paul says (Rom­ ans 8:7), "The carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.” Whatever is opposed to God, Chris­ tian Science proves to be both unin­ telligent and unreal. The mortal be­ lief in the reality and power of mat­ ter is fostered by false education. It is a belief that errs in every direction it appears to take, and is responsible for all the world's woes. The ensu­ ing ill effect of attributing power to aught but God is shown throughout the Scriptures. The teaching of Christ Jesus in particular are em­ phatic concerning this error. He him­ self accorded all power to God, and his teachings show the futility of all human enterprise in which God is not taken into considerations as the one supreme, governing power. To attribute reality and power to matter is to become subservient to material conditions. The irony of this belief is seen when it is understood that matter has no true existence; and that God created man in His own likeness, and gave him dominion ov­ er his entire creation, as is indicated in the first chapter of Genesis. What is termed mortal man is depicted al­ legorically in the sseeond chapter of Genesis and shown to be utterly de­ void of true dominion. However, it is the prerogative of every individual to rise above all mortal and material be­ liefs, and to claim and realize his true selfhood as a child of God. This was an Important point in Jesus' teachings, as Christian Science makes clear. It is a point which must be considered in all Christian Science practice. How great is the need in the world today for true dominion, the ability to manifest divine power. The need is particularly evident when circum­ stances arise which are regarded as fortuitous. But by understanding that God is the source of all true be­ ing. and that man is His perfect like­ ness, it is proved, in Christian Sci- f Lansing News Letter f RECREATION CENTER. Nashville, Mich.

George *W. Button, 66. and Mrs. L. Loomis. 76 were thrown to the floor of the auto. The third passenger was Mrs. George W. Button. The two first named were considerably bruised and may have suffered internal injuries. The third passenger was not badlyhurt. Mrs. Hudson heard the dog barking and went out to investigate. She saw the overturned car, but there was no sign of life within. Calling her husband from the morning chores at the barn, she ran to the pavement and finally succeeded in “waving down" a passing motorist. The three hauled passengers, two of them un­ conscious. from the car, and carried them to the Hudson home where they were cared for. Dr. Betting was summoned and attended the injured. Later in the day the three were taken to their home city of Plymouth in the Neiler ambulance. The three were on their way to Grand Rapids to attend the funeral of a relative when the ac­ cident occurred. The Hudsons live in the section known as Davenport hills southeast of the village. There have been numerous auto accidents in that neighborhood since the pavement was built some years ago. Later advices from Plymouth revealed that Mr. Button was confined to a hospital there, suffering from a punctured lung. His condition was considered serious.—Portland Review and Ob­ server.

Pou trymen tn the state soon w.ll be Ln the market for approximately 20 million baby chicks—a field for sales that has been attracting more and more unreliable salesmen whose tactics arouse the ire of Manager Conolly. He’d like to warn every Michigan flock owner to beware of strangers, especially those who offer "double star’ or “triple star" or “superior” chicks with all high pedigrees that "will lay up to 300 eggs in a year." Egg production is an inherited characteristic, therefore the breeding of the stock is more assent al than promises of salesmen. Beware, says Conolly. of unwritten offers of free flock service, free culling, gifts of free chicks with remarkable breeding or an offer to install brooding equip­ ment at cost or without down pay­ ment. . "Most of Michigans reliable hatch­ erymen do not have salesmen on the road. If they do. the representatives are fully authorized as dealers in the community in which they work," Conolly warns. "Reliable salesmen do not make rash promises. The best protection tor the poultryman is to have writ­ ten statements, signed by the sales­ man and to keep copies of the order, price list and catalog. Ibis can help in ridding the state of inferior chicks along with the inferior salesman." NEW CHAMPIONS NAMED AT BL 8.

Weigle of the Yale Divinity Schools said in Chicago. "To exclude religion from public schools," he said, “would be to sur­ render these schools to the sectarian­ ism of atheism and trreligion.” Dr. Weigle told the 18th annual meeting of tee International Council of Religious Education that Sectar­ ianism must be kept out of public school curricula, but he added: “There is nothing in the principle of religious freedom or tee separation of church and state to hinder the school's acknowledgment of the pow­ er and goodness of God.” The Yale dean said the nation has declared its faith in God in many ways, in the Constitution of the states, in its legal oaths, and its le­ gal holidays for religious events. "The common religious faith of the American people, as distingished from tee sectarian forms in which it is organized, may rightfully be as­ sumed and find appropriate expres­ sion in the life and work of tee pub­ lic schools,” he said. Be A Child An efficiency expert has Again. made*a survey to deter­ mine tee best recreation for men and women. He lists tennis, golf, billiards, cards, dinner parties, the theatre and romping with the children. Which do you think he found gives tee best relaxation ond rest ? Romping with the children heads the list! The most successful way to let go of care and worry is to be a child again. When we get down on the floor 1(6 play with the youngsters, we restore the child in us. We see things through the eyes of children. The cobwebs are swept out of our minds. Joy, like sunshine, comes streaming into our hearts. Not only the efficiency experts, but the poets, too. have found playing with children a master secret of re­ gaining poise and happiness. I like these lines by Katherine D. Blake: Would ye learn the road to Laughter­ town, O ye who have lost the way? Would ye have young heart tho your hair be gray? Go learn from a little child each day. Go serve his wants and play his play, And catch tee lilt of his laughter gay, And follow his dancing feet as they •tray; For he knows tee road to Laughter­ town, O ye who have lost the way. —The Friendly Adventurer. What New Deal Whenever a New Has Done. Deal spokesman, whether he be the President or somebody else, desires to proclaim the great results of the last seven years, he almost invariably makes comparisons between the cur­ rent year and 2932 when we all ad­ mit the country was tn the depths of the depression. Of course, it would be just as fair to compare the year 1938 when we were suffering a "re­ cession” in tee New Deal “boom" with the year 1929 when the country was going at top speed, the like of which no nation on earth ever enjoy­ ed. Naturally, the only way to com­ pare one period with another is to take a wide angle view of it For instance, let's take the seven New Deal years, 1938-1939, and compare them with the seven years 1923-1929. It always is popular with New Deal spokesman also to say, "We never want to see anything like the 1920's again.” Most of us wish we might see those days again when all were employed and all were making money and living better than they ever did before or since. Arthur Krock, the Washington cor­ respondent of the New York Times, is an intimate friend of the Presi­ dent, perhaps the one newspaper man Mr. Roosevelt trusts most Mr. Knock likewise is employed by a Democrat newspaper which supported Mr. Roosevelt both in 1932 and 1936. But Mr. Krock also is a mighty good newspaperman who does not permit friendships to distort facts. He made a comparison of the period 1933-1939 with That of 1923-1929 recently and here is what he discovered: Average of manufacturinng em­ ployment has dropped 9 per cent in the New Deal period. Industrial pro­ duction is down 12 per cent Whole­ sale prices decreased 21 per cent. Factory payrols are off 24 per cent The national income per capita de­ clined 33.per cent New construc­ tion has fallen off 57 per cent New financing is down 84 per cent. And for all of this we, tee taxpay­ ers, have had spent of our money more than 340,000,000,000 and our na­ tional debt has increased more than 323,000,000,000 with no end yet in sight We’ve had strikes and disor­ ders, our relief roll is still enormous. Deficits are an annual occurrence.

TH E most astounding fea­ ture of the Presidential campaign this year, it seems to me, is the total lack of a clear­ cut program by any aspirant for this office. There are tre­ mendous issues before the Ameri­ can people, such as our stand on the European conflict, and the increas­ ingly serious problem of our unem­ ployed millions, but no candidate for the Presidency seems to have the courage to take a definite stand on any issue. I have been told it is too early for policies to be disclosed, but the courage man needed in the Presidency would not be afraid to declare his views on grave national problems even now. I wonder if William Alien White ia not correct — the man for the Presidency has not yet become known to us. a A. E. MOORLAG, Optometrist. Stewart Lofdahl, ML D. Nashville, Mich.

A parallel exists in the system <of state grants to local governments. Together they have confused the taxing picture, making it more dif­ ficult to pin the blame on any one agency, and the inevltab e result has been a shifting of responsibility from public officials at home to others miles away either at the state or na­ tional capital. Because both federal and state governments have been increasing the granting of aid. the Hatch act was really inevitable, regardless of the •’politics’” which motivate members of Congress in varying degrees. Consider the nthe growth of federal aid, if you please, as it applies to Michigan. . . V Social Security. ' The federal social security act. a -child of the New Deal, is supported by taxes—contributions by employers and employees. When benefit payments for unem­ ployment compensation started in Michigan on August 1, 1938, Mich­ igan's fund totaled $65,288,000. The fund at the first of 1940 was $46,­ 500.000. a gain of $9,000,000 over the balance of one year ago. Contribu­ tions during 1940, it is estimated, should exceed benefit payments by $10,000,000, making a total reserve at the first ef 1941 of around $46,000.­ 000. Benefits to unemployed citizens have reached a total of nearly $77.­ 000,000. Contributions have totaled $121,200,000. Old age assistance, public health service, and employment service arc •other federal aid activities which have been created since the begin­ ning of the Roosevelt administration. 447 Millions, Relief. During the past five years Mich­ igan has been allocated for emergen­ cy relief a total of $447,143,503.97, according to a White House report submitted to Congress. The Works Projects administration expended J313J33.130.33 during this time. for state work. Administration over­ head was $8,151,016 additional. Last year brought an ail-time high in federal expenditures in Michigan, a total of $131.014457. Other years’ spending of federal money here were: 1938—$74,634,690-34. 1937—$81481,923.61. 1936 and 1935—$109,221,045.08. Agricultural benefits were $13,­ 422,951.67. this money going to the farmers Ln AAA payments for soil conservation, loans, rural rehabilita­ tion and relief. The NY A accounted for $9,846,401.­ 88; public health service, $2,348,993.­ 35; U. S. Housing Authority $3,526,393.86—and on and on. State Payrolls. The growth of federal ad grants to Michigan, social security and oth­ erwise, accounted last year for more than $400,000 increase in state pay­ rolls. Payroll expenditures for the past two years were as follows: Unemployment 1938 1939 compensation $1,167,372 $1,403,700 Employment 1,114.023 1,300.980 429.192 Public health 477,947 Old age pensions 658.266 639,216 Highway ...... 4,527.083 4^78tU5 $7,895,947 $8,399,958 The Increase in state payrolls for these federal aid activities for 1939 over 1938 was $504,011. The total increase of all state de­ partments and Institutions for 1939 over 1938 was $329,719. Otherwise, If it were not for the federal aid departments, Michigan would have shown a decrease in state payrolls last year instead of an in­ crease. However, the same economy claim could have been made by tht previous state administration. For the year of 1938 alone the unemploy­ ment compensation payroll jumped from $302 095 in the previous year to $1,267,372; the employment service shot from $29,022 to $1,114,034. Money And Votes. A fear that the spending of such vast sums of public money would lead to misuse of power by po'iticians in the interest of perpetuating themsel­ ves in public office led to the enact­ ment of the Hatch act, affecting only federal employees. " Then Senator Hatch in the 1940 session proposed extension of the Hatch act, forbidding political activ­ ity by federal employees, to state de­ partments which receive federal aid grants. Under a general amendment to the Hatch act, adopted by the Senate under sponsorship- of Senator Pren­ tiss Brown, VanWagoner would be permitted to run for governor in 1940 without resigning his present office. He would be permitted to take a leave of absence without pay during the campaign- His term as highway commissioner expires in 1942 when he would run for re-election, if he was not electee governor next No­ vember. ' Thus the Hatch bill,- designed to curb political control through spend­ ing of federal money, drives a fur­ ther wedge into the widening gap between federal and state govern­ ments. States' rights, already a fad­ ing principle, would take still anoth­ er setback. Federal spending is res­ ponsible. National Forests. One-sixth of the land in Michigan is owned by federal or state govern ment and hence is tax-free. There are 1,666.543 acres in na­ tional forests; state forests totaled 1,075,000 acres; state game areas, 500,000 acres; state parks. 30,000 ac­ Extended Illness Ended Sunday Af­ res; national parks. 120,000 acres; ternoon At Nettie Parrott Home. federal waterfowl refuges, 100.000 ac- Was 75. acres. and sub-marginal land pro­ Mrs. Minnie O.

About 50 were present Friday night including Dorothy Sum­ ner and Lawrence Barnett worthy matron and patron of the Hastings chapter. Mary Mosher, Eaton county president, Carrie Campbell. Barry county .president, Mrs. Barnett, v cc president, and • Gertrude Pennock, secretary and treasurer of the coun­ ty association, while another guest was Mrs. Oliver Wallace of Perry, sister of Mrs. J.

Mrs. Helen Vining of Reed street was Friendship night candidate for the de­ grees. the degree work, the opening and closing ceremonies beautifully done by the Laurel chapter’s new of­ ficers. Of those introduced, only Mrs. Campbell was escorted to the east, and she carried with her an electric star for the East which she was pre­ senting to Laurel chapter as the gift of Vern and Mildred McPeck. And there was a'so the Friendship pre­ sentation by Mrs. Campbell of a very fine walnut gavel given her by a dear friend, which will make the rounds of the Barry chapters this season and come Lack to her in con­ clusion. This was presented to Mrs. Sumner for Hastings chapter which will have the next Friendship meet­ ing. There were some impromptu talks, and then in conclusion refresh­ ments in the dining room, with at­ tractive table decorations in green and ye'low.

COW HAY DIETS CUT GRAIN COOT World war conditions are affecting the type of cuds that Michigan dairy cows are chewing this winter. That is if dairymen are following scientific means of reducing productions, costs by changing dairy rations. So-called heavy feedings of good roughage are permitting thousands of dairymen to reduce the amounts of grain necessary to keep individual cowa in suitable production of milk. "Dairymen are finding they can save an average of $5.60 a week in feeding 10 cows," estimates A. C. Baltzer extension dairyman at dairy­ man at M. 3. C. Here is the way It is being done. The cows need an adequate water supply for drinking, they also need odorless bone meal to stimulate their appetite for more roughage. With good hay such ns U. S. No. 1 leafy al­ falfa or U. S. No. 2 extra leafy alfal­ fa. the cows can use 16 or more lbs. of hay daily instead of about 12 lbs. Grain feedings can be cut daily to save about 1 1-2 to 2 1-2 pounds of grain for each pound of fat produced dally. The grain mixture, as wen, can be changed. Four hundred pounds of corn and oats can be mixed with 50 pounds of sovbean meal in­ stead of 150 pound? of oilmeal. The latter costs about $2 a hundred pounds and the reduction cheapens the grain ration. An estimated 90 per cent of the dairymen enrolled in herd improve­ men and cow testing association work are using the odorless bone meal to entice their cows into eating more roughage, testing records Indicate. Arthur E. Kidder, an assistant at­ torney general under nine haads (two of whom were Democrats) of the state’s legal department. brought up in Vermontville and after completing his course in Ann Arbor began the practice of law in Nash­ ville. Following his appointment as an assistant attorney general Mr. Kid­ der specialized in municipal and school law and at the time of his death was regarded as * Michigan authority on these subjects. He re­ ceived his first appointment through the influence of Justice W. W. Potter and his long record in the office is a fine compliment to the faith and judgment of his sponsor. Frank D. McKay, who has become prominent because of the mj story complex which he has built around himself down through his political years, is coming out in the glare of the noonday sun. He carried a paid advertisement in the Sunduv fjisue of all Michigan papers to the effect that he will tell the real truth about the gambling situation in Michigan and intimated, in this connection, that Governor Fitzgerald's death—a year ago this very week—was caused by the hounding of a "powerful newspa­ per," presumably the Detroit News or possibly it is the outstate ace at the Booth string, the reputable and comparably influential Grand Rapids Press. In any event the McKay copy Is to be' run in his personal organ, the Michigan (Grand Rapids' Times. In claiming to tell the "real" story of gambling operations Ln Michigan Mr. McKay takes on a dual role. In addi­ tion to what he expects to tell he musts be ready to explain what ac­ tually did take place. In other words ' the public is more interested in the I answers than in the technique of the gambling overlord.

THURSDAY, APRIL 4, IMO idea, and utilizes it, is given more abundance; while he who leans'upon material beliefs reaches the point eventually, where he must abandon these because they are insubstantial, inadequate to meet the exigencies of daily life. Mrs. Eddy has said, in the Christian Science textbook (p. 126) : "Human belief has sought and inter­ preted in its own way the echo of Spirit, and so seems to have reversed it and repeated it materially; but the human mind never produced a real tone nor sent forth a positive sound." The positive tones of spiritual sense ring out Joyfully qver the earth. Hu­ manity is listening ever more intently for divine direction. In .the quietness of spiritual meditation, the "still, small voice" (I Kings 19:12) of divine Truth is heard; indeed, ft. has been heard by thousands who are awaken­ ing to a recognition of spiritual life. When mortals judge what they have, or have not, from the standpoint of how much they utilize of Love’s uni­ versal supply of spiritual good, they will have gained the only basis upon which peaceable, harmonious exper­ ience is possible.—Christian Science Monitor. Life’s success stories are written by men who early reach the decision to set about doing something. They don’t believe progress tumbles into your lap. They realize that things come to those who go after what the other fellow is waiting for.—Grit. Think before you speak. — George Washington. I love the man who can smile in trouble.—Thos. Paine.

He had been a resident of Lake Odessa for thirty years and was engaged in the jewelry business there. commisaion of which a motor vehicle | Lansing News Letter Numerous appeals from motorists whose licenses have been revoked or suspended for infractions of the law are received weekly by Harry F. Kelly, secretary of state. These luckless drivers are of the mistaken Impression that inasmuch as the sec­ retary of state issues licenses, he also has authority to restore them. To clarify this situation, Mr. Kelly has issued the following statement: The revocation or suspension' of an operator's or chauffeur's license is predicated upon either the recommen­ dation of the Commissioner of the Michigan State Police, or upon a con­ viction report. The operator’s and chauffeur's license law gives the sec-■ retary of state no authority to set aside the suspension or revocation period, as it is mandatory for him to follow the recommendations of the Commissioner or the conviction re­ port. {However, the Act offers relief by petitioning the Circuit Court, and in some cases the License Appeal Board which is composed of the secretary of state, who acts as chairman of the board, the Commissioner of the Mich­ igan State Police, and the Attorney General. The only revocation* and suspensions that the License Appeal Board may set aside are those that originate from the recommendation of the Commissioner of the Michigan State Police. The License Appeal Board has no jurisdiction over the mandatory revocations which are as follows: 1. Manslaughter resulting from the I operation of a motor vehicle. I 2. Driving a motor vehicle while under the influence of intoxicating liI quor or a narcotic drug. 3. Perjury or the making of a false . statement under any law requiring the registration of motor vehicles or regulat’ng their operation on high­ ' ways. ' 4. Any crilme punishable as a fel­ ony under the motor vehicle laws of this state or any other felong in the 5. Conviction or forfeiture of bail upon three charges of reckless driv­ ing all within the preceding twelve months. 6. Conviction of a driver involved in an accident resulting in the death or injury of another person upon a charge of failing to stop and disclose his Identity at the scene of the acci­ dent • 7. Permitting another person while under the influence of intoxicating ' quor to operate your car. Such revocations can only be set aside, confirmed or modified by the Circuit Court In the county in which the conviction occurred. —H.

The Golden Text (Jeremiah 3:23) is: “Truly in vain is salvation hoped for from the hills, and from the multitude of mountains: truly in the Lord our God is the salvation of Israel." Among the Bible citations is this passage (I John 2:15): “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.” Correlative passages to be read from the Christian Science textbook, “Science and Health with Key to tin Scriptures." by Mary Baker Eddy, in­ clude the following (p. 21): “If the ••We wm appreciate me prompt disciple is advancing spiritually, he is striving to enter in.

CHICKS IN MAY DIFFER IN NEEDS Michigan poultrymen can’t agrie. Although thousands of them have changed their management practices in order to hatch or purchase baby chicks in February or March, the most popular month still is April and many are started in May So Ray Conolly, as field manager of the Michigan State Poultry Improve­ ment association, with headquarters at M. S. C., sums up what different treatments arc required by the later chicks. February and March chicks can be brooded under more even temperataures, disease is less prevalent and pullets start laying when eggs arc highest in price, broilers go to mar­ ket when prices are best and the ear­ ly brooding is at a time when a far­ mer has free time. Here are a few advantages of the later hatching. The chicks grow rap­ idly after April or. May hatching, sects are plentiful, sunshine is easier to get, chicks are usually lower in pAce, less heat is required for brood­ ing. But good poultry practices are ne­ cessary for these late chicks, Conolly points out. Brooder house tempera­ tures should be the same as for ear­ lier chicks. Feeding practices should be similar except the mash consump­ tion should be encouraged rather than heavy grain feeding. Most important is sanitation to curb disease. Clean ground is necessary. Houses should be cleaned frequently and kept on clean ground. Feed hop­ pers and water dishes must be re­ moved and cleaned often. Chicks should be kept away from old stock. Thus, says Conolly. there may be more work involved, but these April and May chicks may still mature in time for profitable fall laying.

I should like to make it cleat for once and foi all that we have never, since the first few months, sought a fiat pension of $200, or any other set amount We have been asking for a two percent tax on the gross business of the country, and our bill proposes to pay an equal share of the tax revenue thus de­ rived to all citizens past 60, who will retire. We believe that pensions today would amount to something over $60 a month, and that, as ‘business expanded, these pensions would increase.

A general good time was had by all, with dancing and visiting after the 6 o’clock .supper. The business session was held later, at which 3 new members and 4-re­ newal memberships were reported. •On account of conflicting with so many other Wednesday night activi­ ties, the club vote dto change its reg­ ular meeting night to Friday, begin­ ning April 5.

Plant Opera­ tions Will Resume Next Week. BuiUr Made At Delton McaaUn*. Creamery machinery including the churns were in operation again, on Wednmday. The plant of the Farmers Co-Op­ erative Creamery Co., on East Sher­ man street, E. D. Olmstead manager, was temporarily disabled by a des­ tructive fire of unknown origin, which damaged the building but not the machinery, with an estimated loss of $8,000 to $10,000, last Friday evening. Through the kindly cooperation of the Delton creamery, uninterrupted service is given the creamery patrons during the interval of clearing up af­ ter the fire and making the necessary temporary repairs for operation of the plant, which will probably be accomplished this week. The matter of permanent repairs and construction will be decided upon at a board meeting thia Thursday night. Insurance of $23,00, $6,000 on the building, was carried with the Mill Mutuals Agency, Tensing The fire, the worst experienced tn years in Nashville, was discovered by a nearby gas station attendant, who turned in the alarm about 5:30 p. m. The fire had gained considerable headway before he noticed it The employees had previously left the plant for the day. with everything apparently all right The fire department made a record run, all the equipment was eventually in use. and every man was on the job. fighting valiantly for over two hours to gain control. That the creamery can resume operations at once, is due to the splendid work of the department and the plentiful water supply. The fire was practically confined to the upper floor, used for storage of supplies and old records, the roof, and small office on the first floor. Two men remained for night duty, the fire breaking out three times. All the butter and cream and of­ fice records were removed and taken to the Nashville Co-Operative Eleva­ tor. where the office is being main­ tained for the present, and where butter (of which there is a plentiful supply) can be secured. The em­ ployees will lose no time at all. and the cream haulers were on their routes the next day. An inventory of a'l losses and an. estimate on coat of putting the plant in shape had to be made at once, preparatory to adjustment of the loss. Manager Olmstead has had a very strenuous week, but all are working together to get the plant back in ac­ tion at the earliest possible moment and the plant reconditioned and ev­ erything back to normalcy. Both the Alto and Carson City creameries also offered their services ns well as the Delton creamery, but the latter was nearer by. Naturally everyone is glad that things are turning out so well, when the plant might so easily have been an entire loss, especially had it been a night fire. Hamess Racing At Co.

Wright was sentenced to serve 30 days in jail, and Sibotean was given a 90 day sentence. Wright is on parole from a federal reform school where he was sentenc­ ed for the theft of an automobile. Authorities believe he will be return­ ed as a parole violator at the com­ pletion of his sentence here. Sibo­ tean also has a jfrevious record. A week ago Sibotean borrowed 50 cents from Deputy Glenr. Swift, and he stopped at the jail and paid Swift before going with Wright and steal­ ing the wood, which was sold for $1. Deputy Swift told the boy that he would rather had him kept the 50 cents thon steal to get more money. —Mrs. Nina Gifford Tasker, 79, for many years an active leader in state and local W. C. T.

THURSDAY, APRIL II, IMO Townsend Club. Doctor Townsend Says THE alarming ant farming and absentee owner­ ship of rnral mands immedi­ ate action by all who are vitally interested in farm economic!. I have found a surprising amountof excellent data on farm tenancy in small daily and weekly papers, especially in the middle-west, indicating that editors who chronicle the current history of their communities realize the threat of peasantry to the farmer. I should like to see a nation-wide conference called of farm leaders and weekly newspaper editors. A definite program to halt tho grab­ bing of farm lands by great finan­ cial interests might thus be formu­ lated. Absentee ownership endangers not only the fanner, but threatens extinction of business in our small towns as welL Means To Thousands in Zowa-^Mov—Tea month. o d Roger Kelley of In hie sleeper wu ecorohed. but he ing Get U1C Time!

"How can you expect the average citizen o? Michigan to become con­ cerned over political parties and bosses when he lacks sufficient in­ come to maintain a decent standard of living?" he asked. ■ Here was a challenging state­ ment. Although the official had been a lifetime Republican, the remark smacked familiarly of the New Deal —the "ill fed, ill clothed, and ill hous­ ed" one-third of our total poplation. We expressed healthy skepticism. "‘What do you consider a decent standard of living?" we replied. The official explained, "I have.it on the authority of an endowed founda­ tion that a small per cent of resi­ dents in the average Michigan county can afford medical or dental treat­ ment. The depression has reduced standards of living. The average family must deprive itself of proper medical and dental care simply for the reason that its income is too small to afford professional services. And es for hospital service, the same family is wholly incapable of meeting emergency bills. ‘Such being the case, and I am convinced that it is, how can you ex­ pect Michigan citizens to become ex­ cited over who runs our government T A handful of astute political leaders can organize an entire county and do as they-please. The voter is Indif­ ferent, and the reason is found in ec­ onomics rather than politics.” America In Nutshell. We called the state official's at­ tention to the new medical and hos­ pital service now being offered to Michigan ►citizens of moderate in­ comes on an easy-pay insurance plan. Low cost medical and hospital care is now available to Michigan people who otherwise might not be able to afford a doctor or a hospital, we pointed out It was a socialized so­ lution to a general condition which Pres. Roosevelt had dramatized in fireside chats and messages to Congrew. "All right, let’s leave out the doctors and hospitals." the offical continued. •‘Consider then these facts on in­ comes during 1935-36 brought out by some experts at Washington”—he produced a booklet from his desk— "the bureau of labor statistics, bu­ reau of home economics and the Na­ tional Economic Committee. These figures were presented to the Tempo­ rary National Economic Committee (the monopoly investigating body) by Dr. Lubin, commissioner of labor sta­ tistics. "We find that 4.000,000 families, or 14 per cent of the total number of families in the U. S.. had an average income of only $312 in 1935-36. Eight million other families, or 25.5 per cent of the total, had an average in­ come of $758 per year. "About 7,000,000 families, or 23 per cent of the total, had an average income of $1X24. The annual aver­ age for all families was only $826, or $69 a month. Furthermore, figures showed that 14 per cent of all Amer­ ican families had an average income of only $312 a year and were spend­ ing only $1 per week for food. "What’s the answer to all this?" he said with finality. How Michigan Ranks. When you want the answer to an unusual problem, you summon an pert, someone who is a specialist in his field. So we tturned to Dr. H. S. Patton, head of the economics department, M. S. C., at East Lansing. Here was an unprejudiced person who con'd shed light on Michigan’s place in the national Income picture. “Who said that Michigan was hard up?" he snapped. "Michigan ranks eighth of all states in point of per capita income. It leads all states in the Middle Weat, according to 1937 income tax reports complied by the national Income sec­ tion of the bureau of domestic com­ merce at Washington. D. C. The Michigan average was >675 for that year. 92 per cent of the income level for 1929. When you realize that the price itxiex has declined close to 18 per cent during this period, the result Is that Michigan citizens had a great­ er purchasing power in 1937 than in 1929." And 1937 was the year of the fa­ mous sit-down strike at Flint and they are today! First In U. 8. On March 22 the Associated Press reported that income tax collections for the first 20 days of March show­ ed an astonishing increase of 81 per cent in Michigan. In fact, the lake, state leads the entire country. Illinois, for example, showed a gain of only 29 per cent. Factory payrolls at Detroit and en­ virons in Wayne county lead all other counties in the U. S. Despite the removal of 35 factories from Detroit in 1939, new industrial plants and expansions have exceeded tills loss by a tremendous margin. The total of new or enlarged industries was 226. Automobile .production is at a near­ record peak; employment is within nine-tenths of the 1937 high index of 11X3. Part of this Wayne county pros­ perity is traced to U. S. and European A'lied army orders. That the same picture exists else­ where in Michigan is indicated by in­ come tax payments, an accurate gauge of purchasing power. ‘ PmmxI Of Heart Trouble. Charles P. Smith, 81. father of J. Robert Smith of Nashville, passed away suddenly at his home in Ver­ montville Saturday morning of cor­ onary thrombosis, while-sitting in a chair. He had enjoyed very good health for a man of his years. He had lived practically all his life in Barry and Eaton counties, and had been engaged in farm'ng. For 18 years he lived in South Vermontville, moving into Vermontville village two years ago. He was born in Eaten county, his parents, William and Sarah Smith, residing on Irish Street at the time of his birth, June 24, 1858. His mar­ riage to Cora M.

Raymond of East Lansing, who was a resident of Nashville and vicinity for 82 years, celebrated hi* 88th birthday an April 4th at hla home on Burcham Drive, East Lans­ ing, Mich. Mr. Raymond, filing duly thankful and appreciative of his safe voyage adowr. the years, briefly sums it up to data: TW Voyage. There's a little mountain valley t That in my thoughts I see. Where nature in ite beauty It beckons unto me. There's a little babbling brooklet That sings music sweet to me, Thru this valley winding, winding. On ite journey to the sea. The rock-ribbed hills they close around This valley fair to see. The babbling brook its music sings, And birds join in the glee. A man and wife dwelt here alone, in this enchanted spot. As day by day they toiled away And questioned not their lot One day a little stranger came. By the Stork Express they say, ’Twas in the e^riy glad springtime, One balmy April day. From that mystic never never land, I think they said he came; He carried no grip; was shy on duds; Didn’t even own.a name. Well, they took the little stranger in. And dressed him up in dandy trim; ’N' somehow, ye know, I’ve alwaye thought They’d sort of been expecting him. I'm not sure just how they fed him, Whether nature's way or out of hand; He seemed to be an ornery chap And couldn't make folks under­ stand. He was a wee bit red-faced chap, And he proved he came to stay; More than four score years have pass­ ed since then. A down the trails of yesterday. He wasn't much to look at then. This pirate of these mountain dells, He hasn’t improved in looks very much, A glance in the mirror tells. He has plodded along from day to day, Sort of floating down the years; Has had somewhat of the joys of life And I think maybe his share of the tears. Somehow he has pulled It through, Just how I wouldn't’ say; He is quite alive and going strong. As any may see today. It seems a long way back, In distance lost to view, The years have come and gone, Old customs changed to new. But here’s to all of the old time folks And especially bo to you. Those old time boys and girls who with the writer, Attended Commencement Day in 1852. Please tell us where the years have gone, Along with the friends we used to know, Who started the voyage along with us Those many years ago. Ho-hum! Can it be true, That I am eightyeight today? And the goal—A century just in sight And only twelve miles (year*) away. Again, Here's to the o'd time boys and girls. A Health to you! —Chas. H. Raymond. . EVEN TAFFY PULL GETS SCIENCE AID Even the old-fashioned party idea of a taffy pull needs to hand out com­ pliments to modern science. For such a device as a sugar cookery thermometer is a far better guide for candy than the guess of the best cook. Egg dishes and other foods with delicate proteins need low tempera­ tures. Fruit whips take an oven at 225 to 250 degrees Fahrenheit A slow oven 250 to 300 degrees seems best for sponge cake and custards. Souffles and angel food cake does at 300 to 325 degrees. Most cakes go up a few degrees, 325 to 375, and cookies usually turn out the best in a moderately hot ov­ en 375 to 400 degrees. Rolls and muffins get the 400 to 450 degree treatment, while a very hot oven 450 to 500 degrees is used in special treatments such as the first step in baking popovers. Oven thermometers and regulators thus serve their purpose. The roast meat thermometer enables a cook to turn out a more perfect roast Util­ izing a special thermometer for con­ trolled temperature in deep-fat fryLnng proves an advantage. Even in the refrigerator, tempera­ ture control is an aid in keeping foods in better condition. Dairy products, broth, and desserts usually need tem­ peratures under 45 degrees, about as cold as the ooMest part of the re­ frigerator storage. Uncooked meats and salad greens can stand higher temperatures, but safekeeping of all perishable foods means under 50 de­ grees. �Nearby Notes Mra.

Near the age when the average man is looking forward to retiring, Pollock is working harder than ever. In a talk I heard him give recently he said: "All my life I have been looking not for a 30-hour week, but for a 30-hour day!” The men who have oullt America are men who tried to put 30 hours of achievement into every day! They did not want more hours in which to loaf, but more hours in which to work and create and accomplish wonders! No man as ever been able to loaf his way to success.

Dickinson A Break. has learned from a Special Study Commission made up of mem­ bers of the Legislature that Michigan is losing from 815.000,000 to 820.­ 000,000 a year because of its "obso­ lete, Inefficient and decentralized’ system of tax collection. That is something to think about at a time when taxation is laying a heavy hand on the pocketbooks of the people and the slate is operating under a deficit which is likely to continue so long as Economy has so few friends in the Capitol and public business is con­ ducted to a lax and wasteful manner. It is hard enough for the taxpayer to bear the burden which is placed upon him. But when a large percentage of the tax revenues are dissipated thru hodge-podge methods of collection, the voice of protest should become so loud that Lt will be heard in every de­ partment in Lansing, particularly at a time when there are those among our state officials who are looking Around for new sources of tax rev­ enue. The Study Commission finds that no less than 14 separate departments of the state are collecting . taxes. Each of these tax divisions is loaded to the hilt with auditors, clerks, field men, investigators and legal aids. Each goes It own sweet way, cross­ ing the paths of collectors from oth­ er divisions, making adjustments without rhyme or reason and alto­ gether having a merry time with the money the people of Michigan are paying in taxes. The Commission labored diligent! yto find out in Lan­ ding how much it was costing to collect various taxes. Nobody seem­ ed to know and, it appears, nobody seemed to care. The Department of State is collecting the gasoline and weight taxes to the amount of $50,­ 000,000 a year; the Auditor General is taking in delinquent property, in­ heritance and utilities taxes in the sum of 817,000,000; tthe sales tax di­ vision is piling up the pennies into millions, and the Liquor Control Commission is hauling in other mil­ lions. Then there are the State Tax Commission, the Corporations and Securities Commission, the State Treasurer, the Athletic Board of Con­ trol, the Racing Commission, the Public Service Commission and the Conservation Department And oth­ ers up to 14, all in helter-skelter, merry-go-round fashion. Small won­ der the horde of state employes in­ creases with each month. Small wonder the state does so much of its bookkeeping in red. Great wonder that the taxpayer has such a vast store of patience. The state of New York does all its tax collecting under one centralized department. Its cost of collection is seven-tenths of one per cent. Other states which have centralized their tax collections are doing the job at a cost of one to three per cent And in most of these states the cost is being reduced with each succeeding year. At attempt was made in the last session of the Legislature to create a central Revenue Department. It didn’t get very far. Legislators were too busy devising ways and means of spending instead of saving money. Perhaps taxpayers, if they make themselves heard, can hope for better luck at the next session. From what the Study Commission has revealed to the Governor there should be no question about the Immediate need of a central tax collection department in the state government. What The Herald has long advocated is now given special emphasis by a legisla­ tive committee. It is high time that our public servants in Lansing turn their attention to more efficient and economical methods of administrtion. The taxpayer should get a break now and then.—Grand Rapids Herald. Fruits Of The present war was not Pacifism, inevitable. It could have been prevented, just as an epidemic of smallpox can be prevent­ ed by vaccination. The reason it was not prevented was because of the pacifist policy that was weakly and stupidly followed by France and Eng­ land—especially England—during the critical years when the war was making. The weakness of France was due to the poisonous effects of radical so­ cialism. It demoralized the govern­ ment, weakened its voice in foreign affairs .and by truckling to organized labor it all but wrecked the produc­ tion of airplanes. But at its worst French policy was better than Brit­ ish. The French never lost sight of the fact that war was coming, never believed Germany could be “appeas­ ed." France would have taken the necessary action at any time if she had been supported by Britain—until, perhaps toward the last when British support was too weak to rely upon. And—kt ail Frenchmen thank Heav­ en—with all its faults the French government kept its army the strong­ est and best in the world. In England there was a different sore of weakness, but similar in ef­ fects. It was due in part to the stupidity of men who were sure the weather was going to be fine even when a tornado was in sight. But it was due chiefly to so-ca led peace­ loving statesmen who could see trou­ ble ahead Ixit thought it could be avoided by pleasant words, solemn conferences and fine-sounding agree­ ments. Later, when these proved worthless, they relied on a series of concessions and surrenders under the name of "appeasement" In the most ominous period, full of terrible warnings, when bold action and active preparation were needed, British statesmanship offered nothing but wishful thinking and peace prat­ tle. In one respect the best British tradition was upheld. Just as Frenchmen may thank Heaven that their army was kept great and strong, so Englishmen may thank Heaven that the British navy was not allowed to decay. But the army, from the standpoint of modern needs, almost ceased to exist, and while Germany was building gigantic air fleets, the British air forces remained weak and production dragged slow’y. Providence must have looked after England and France better than their statesmen had done for they were able to get a fair start before war be­ gan. and to get a much better one before the great shock came. Why Hitler delayed is one of the myster­ ies. If he had struck a year ago. England and France could hardly have saved themselves. But he wait­ ed; and by that slender thread of circumstances hangs the hope of Al­ lied victory. If the Allies had been ready to back up their words with deeds they could have stopped Hitler in 1933 or 1934, when he began to violate the Versailles treaty and showed clearly what his designs were. They could have stopped him in 1936 when he militarized the Rhineland, restored conscription, and was building planes at top speed. They could have stop­ ped him in 1938 when he overran Austria and annexed parts of Czecho­ slovakia, and in 1939 before he de­ stroyed the rest of Czechos'ovakia and devastated Poland. But they did not, and they could not, because they were not ready. They were not ready because they relied on pacifist dreams instead of recognizing the nature of the world they lived in. Now they are paying the price of their fatuity in terms of gigantic, perilous and ruinous con­ flict. It is the price of pacifist delu­ sions in a world where nothing but force counts.—Exchange. “Rise; He Callcth Thee." Nearly everyone has had the experience of addressing re­ marks to an individual who has fail­ ed to respond. This was possibly due, not to defective hearing, but to his preoccupation with other thoughts. He was listening mentally to that which seemed important to him. Such preoccupation may cause one to miss the benefits of an exper­ ience. In a similar manner, the aggressive arguments of'material sense attempt to engage one’s thought and divert it from the recognition of the ever­ presence of God, good, and of His perfect spiritual creation. Yet as Christian Science teaches, the real man is constantly aware of the per­ fection of being. His senses are spir­ itual, and he responds to the ever­ active influence and attraction of divine Love. In spite of the apparent complexi­ ties and difficulties of human exist­ ence, the harmony of true being is ever available, never permanently ob­ scured by untoward surroundings from those who sincerely listen for and desire good. Disraeli wrote: “Man is not the creature of circum­ stances. Circumstances are the crea­ tures of man." How comforting to know that no environment can hin­ der our spiritual progress! Through the study and the application of Christian Science one can prove that neither the cares of this world, trials, physical problems, disturbed sugges­ tions of lack, can prevent him from demonstrating the spiritual verities of real being. God’s goodness is indeed always avai’able, and may be ut lized and enjoyed. At a time of great sorrow, Chris­ tian Science came into the life of one who was reaching out for Truth, and brought the understanding of God which makes free. Sorrow and hope­ lessness gave way to peace of mind and heart The words of Isa ah (OiZ4), “The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined,” were literally fulfilled in his experience. He gained the con­ viction that God is always present to heal, save, and deliver the one who. irrespective of his present need, hum­ bly turns to divine Love. Mind is truly impartial. In the words of Pe­ ter (Acts 2:39), “The promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off." Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, writes in “Science and Hea-th with Key to the Scriptures” (pp. 323, 324), “Willingness to become as a little child and to leave the old for the new, renders thought receptive of the ad­ vanced idea.” In the truly receptive THUBMDAY, APRIL tfi, 1M4 BARKY OO.

Howell of Lansing, Mich., and Lakeland, Fla., on The Seminole In­ dians of Florida. Mr. Howell lived for a time with the Big Cypress tribe of the Semlnoles, deep in the Everglades of Flor­ ida, from forty to sixty miles from civilization. He told of tl|e history, traditions and customs of the In­ dians and related his experiences among them.

Anti-Saloon Lea­ gue, And Former Resident Of Maple Grove. Rev. R. N. Holsaple, pastor of the Evangelical church at Cass City, and former superintendent of the Anti­ Saloon League in Michigan, April 13 announced his candidacy for the Re­ publican nomination for Lieutenant Governor at the primary election in September. • Dr. Holsaple formerly lived in Ma­ ple Grove township, and is a brother of Mrs. Fred Hanes. His father preached in the North Maple Grove church, and Dr. Holsaple received his license to preach from that church. Although Dr. Holsaple has been identified with the dry movement in this state and the nation for many years, his campaign for the nomina­ tion will not be conducted on “wet and dry lines," he said. In making this statement, Dr. Hol­ saple said, "The prohibition issue was decided for Michigan in the 1933 elec­ tion. Other states followed rapidly Michigan’s example. Tlie question was thus settled, at least for some­ time. "The liquor traffic is therefore, a legal institution. It remains for the legislature to provide such rules and regulations as will protect both the liquor business and the public. "It should be possible for thinking representatives of both wet and dry interests to sit down together and work out a program that will ach­ ieve this end, and thus demonstrate that they are both interested in the welfare of the state. "One of the objectionable features of the present liquor setup is the large number of road houses and tav­ erns, located in rural areas without adequate supervision and police regu­ lation. "The careless conduct of these plac­ es has aroused severe criticism, which the liquor interests cahnot afford to carry. No license should be granted to sell alcoholic beverages outside cities and incorporated villages. I should favor that" Dr. Holsaple said costa of adminis­ tration of state government are still too high although substantial pro­ gress has been made during the pres­ ent Republican administration along lines of state economy. He added that all state employes should be re­ quired to earn their salary or be dis­ missed from the pay roll. The candidate said’ that he is in the race to win and feels that the many years he spent among legislatures both in the states and the National Congress fit him to perform the du­ ties of the office of Lieutenant Gov­ ernor. —William Morgan. 82, died at his home north of Lacey, where he had lived for many years.

When it comes to food, early vege­ tables are among the first harbingers of spring, explain home economics staff members at M. S. C. First among these vegetables are the wild greens, dandelion and sorrel Ln many p'aces. In other sections there arc water cress and cowslip, or pokeweed and milkweed. Lambsquarters, purslane, field cress and many others appear on the last of greens Ln some localities. When you get the greens into the ■kitchen, cut off the roots and w’ilted leaves, if they have any. Then wash 1 1the greens thoroughly through sev­ eral changes of water. Always lift 'the greens from the water, to let the 1sand fall to the bottom. When the greens are used raw in a salad, most of the food values are 1 1retained, but be sure to wash them quickly and put them in a cold place to become crisp. Don’t soak out the food values by letting the greens stand in water. If the greens are to be cooked, put them in a covered saucepan. If the pan is thick enough for them to cook slowly, use just the water that clings to the leaves and have a very low fire under the pan. Cook until just ten­ der.. Otherwise, cook the greens quickly in a small quantity of salted boiling water. Leave the cover on the pan until the greens are wilted, and then remove the cover to finish cooking. Season the greens lightly, and dress them with butter or other ■ ■ J * ■ 5 reward of the inheritance: serve the Lord Christ." for ye ' . L 8 C.

But now the silent succes­ sion suggests nothing but necessity. To most men only the cessation of the miracle would be miraculous, and the perpetual exercise of God’s power seems leas wonderful than its with­ drawal would be.”—Longfellow.

The boxes held 1185 in pennies. The license for the tavern is but 1175 Angelo said that he had collected the amount in six months. He does so each year. The other six months' pennies are uSed to finance his deer hunting trip. Patrons at the National bank, where he turned in the pennies, remarked that perhaps this was the reason that about a third of all pennies received in change there lately have been shining new ones.

AMONG .W rights as human beings, that to vote was the hardest to ob­ tain and may be the easiest to lose. It can be destroyed by in­ difference, or apathy. Yet that little ballot —a thin slip of a paper—is all that stands between you and tyranny. But back of it is the blood of every patriot and the tears of every slave. Too precious a weapon to be cast aside lightly, I urge every one to vote at this election, which might easily become the last. About 40 attended the last meet­ ing of the club at Nashville on Fri­ day, Apr. 19. The surprise box was won by E. B. Greenfield. Plans were made for a penny sup­ per the night we have a speaker, which we are hoping to have about May 10th. There was a little talk at this meeting of sending a delegate to the big fifth Townsend National Conven­ tion to be held at SL Louis, Mo., June 30 to July 4. A rare baseball treat is in store for delegates and visitors to this convention the night of July 2, when the Cincinnati Reds, champions of the National League to 1939, will play the St. Louis Cardinals who fin­ ished second that year. It will be known as Townsend night at the ball park and a huge section of the grandstand will be appropriately sec­ orated and set aside for Townsendites. There will also be a moonlight cruise on the new stream-lined ex­ cursion steamer, Admiral, on the Mississippi. The boat will carry a few more than 2000 passengers.

First, Michigan farmers are given instruction Ln better crop methods and better soil management practic­ es. They are told to turn under green crops for manure, keep soils covered in winter with legumes and winter wheat and winter rye, keep hillsides and knobs covered all sea­ sons in order to lessen erosion and conserve fertility, and increase acre­ age production through the use of fertilizers and select seeds. Result: Forty-four of Michigan’s leading crops showed a better average ranking in 1939 than they did in 1938. While losses occurred in national ranking for acreages, there were ac­ tual gains in national ranking for production—and that meant growing more food on less land. x Top rating was achieved nationally by cherriesr late strawberries, late celery, field beans, • peppermint and spearmint, and cucumbers for pickles. Peach output moved from eleventh to fifth place; alfa'fa seed, tenth to fourth. What About Surplus? Second, agricultural production un­ der stimulation of better practices has resulted in an increasing surplus. That's where the state department of agriculture enters the picture with its program to inspect and grade Michigan food products, to educate the consumer to the superiority of Michigan products through advertis­ ing and thus to absorb any surplus without resorting to ruinous low prices which would be below cost of production. * Another government agency which is helping to move surplus farm pro­ duction is the Surplus Commodities Corporation, a federal organization. Supplementing the state relief alloca. tions of the state welfare commission to county welfare commissions are federal allowances of surplus food commodities. The Surplus Commodities corpora­ tion also enters the Michigan market and buys carloads of surplus food for shipment to other states for supple­ mental relief use. A third activity of this corporation is now in operation at Grand Rapids where food stamps are available to persons on relief for purchase of de­ signated surplus commodities in lieu of direct distribution of these com- ; modifies from food depots. Persons who receive orange Stamps for pur- \ chase of food also receive free 50 per i Agent Foster. cent more in blue stamps which can' be used only for purchase of surplus Harold Foster.

Hockstad, a member of the Olivet college class of 1940. re­ ceived a h gh honor this past week in being awarded a flute scholarship at Curtis Institute of Music in Philadel­ phia. This is a real dirtincton and is granted only for unusual musical at­ tainment Mr. Hockstad has been a pupil of Dr. Pedro Par. since coming to Olivet college, and during the past two years has also been working with C. Edwin Lennig of the Detroit Sym­ phony orchestra. Encouraged by his instructors, he made application lor entrance to the Curtis Institute, and was accepted for the competitive try­ outs. On April 16 he went to Phila­ delphia for an audition, competing with picked contestants from all over the country. As a result, he was in­ formed last Saturday that he had been awarded the one available schol­ arship. This will permit him to study at Curtis without charge until he has completed-hls course. His ma­ jor work will be done in flute under Kincaid, eminent artist and solo flut­ ist of the Philadelphia Symphony or­ chestra. This is the first time that an Olivet student has won this distinc­ tion, and it is an honor to the college and the music department os well as an indication of Mr. Hockstad’s su­ perior ability. Mr. Hockstad. whose home is in Traverse City, is the son of Lars and Lola Avis Hockstad, both graduates of Olivet college. During the time he has been in college, he has been the first flutist of the Olivet College Symphony orchestra, and has shown marked progress. —A few months ago the Journal press room made a ruling to fine each one a nickel each time he ’’cussed.’’ A small bank was set up and the nickels carefully dropped in. Last week the bank was opened, all hoping there would be enough accumulated for a good treat As the whole force stood around watching for the pile to be counted it was discovered that there were four nickels, one dime, four pennies. 15 lead slugs and 37 washers about the size of nickels. Cones and cokes were all the darned thing was able to offer in the way of a “treat" And the cussing still goes on. • • • Addressing about 2,500 ru­ ral school teachers in Big Rapids last Saturday in a Michigan Rural Teach­ ers association session, Gov. Dickin­ son said: "Set youth a good example: don't smoke or drink. If there are those among you who dring go home and swear off. You cannot afford to keep on." Also he recalled that in his school leaching days he used a har­ ness strap to keep discipline, but ad­ mitted that would be out of place now. • • • The way we understand school teaching nowadays is that the teacher is mostly there to ."encourage the pupils in self-expression." That harness strap business might repress their natural urge and that would be jut too bad. • • • And that reminds us that the Ann Arbor police are in­ vestigating an "expression" which hauled up a Nazi emblem on the U. of M. flag staff the other day. The flag­ pole is 150 feet high and it was im­ possible to haul the red emblem down because the ropes had been spliced. A campus worker climbed the pole and brought it down. University officials believe it to be a prank, but a peace rally sponsored by fifteen campus or­ ganizations was scheduled for the same day so the police are working to apprehend the one who perpetrated the ‘-joke.’’ — From Duck Soup, by Slug, in Eaton Rapids Journal.

To smear an honest effort to redeem this country from poverty and economic suicide is an insult to as fine a body of citizens as have ever supported a great cause. Brave Fighters. Was Wi Ham Lloyd Garrison a coward? Was Susan B. Anthony a coward? Were Frances Willard and hundreds of other leaders in great causes cowards? Who dares say that Dr. Townsend is a coward and afraid to meet the condemnation of those who opposed his theory of economic recovery! His sincerity and honesty of purpose; his clear and intelligent oxpisltion of his Plan have caused him to be respected among the moat intellectual people the world over. The Townsend Plan does not look so foolish or impossible when It is realized that each and every year more people in America lose their homes than were lost in the Finnish war. Greater purchasing power will fasten these peoples to the soil, be­ yond the need of aid, beyond belated sympathy. We quite agree with ex-President Calvin Coolidge when he said: "The wise and correct course to follow in taxation and all other economic leg­ islation is not to destroy those who have already secured (financial) ir , cess, but to create conditions under which everyone will have a better chance to be successful.” That is the Townsend Plan in a nutshell.

I Dewey and Arthur Vandenberg, agreed to stay out of each other’s home field — Dewey out of Michigan and Vandenberg out of New York. Regarding Vandenberg as the state's favorite son for the Presiden­ cy, the state Republican organization has been plumping enthusiastically for the Grand Rapids senator, and it is a foregone conclusion that Van­ denberg will receive Michigan's sup­ port on the first vote at the Philadel­ phia convention next month. Howard Lawrence, former state treasurer succeeding Frank D. Mc­ Kay, launched a Vandenberg boom a year ago. Leslie Butler, personal serretary of the governor, has been ac­ tive in behalf of the Vandenberg-forpresident movement But when the Michigan senator declined to leave Washington to compete in person with Dewey in western states and the state primary verdicts showed a de­ finite trend towards the New York racket-busting prosecutor, certain Republican leaders began to get ner­ vous. Melville B. McPherson of Lowell, who was a candidate against former Governor Fitzgerald two years ago, and Senator Herman H. Dignan of Owosso seized upon tthe opportunity to launch a Dewey movement ’ in Michigan. Dignan was careful to explain that the Dewey organization is being form­ ed without Mr. Dewey's permission because of the Dewey-Vandenberg agreement. He said: “His campaign is gather­ ing momentum in Michigan as well as elsewhere and it seems advisable that something be done to organize the sentiment here.” McPherson is chairman of the state tax commission. Dignan is an inde­ pendent hardware dealer at Owosso. And so it goes. Michigan's politi­ cal pot ‘s beginning to boil. I Threat To Harmony? In the judgment of one Lansing newspaper correspondent. Osborn's heckling attitude is "somewhat of a threat to the peace and harmony of the Republican party." Joseph H. Creighton, a veteran ob­ server of the capital scene, inter­ viewed a number of the "top notch Republican leaders” and reported that one of them remarked caustics'- j ly: “Why must the old man run, after all?" This same person informed Creighton that "one strong candidate | could defeat Dickinson in the primar- j Charles Wilder, 82. ies."

A baseball game between the Has Beens, squad of former stars, and the Nashville high school team will be played on the village diamond today (Thursday) at 3:30 p. m. Dr. Stewart Lofdahl is scheduled to pitch for the Old Timers and Voyle Varney will catch and manage the team. There will be no admission charge and the public is invited. Conflicting reports are current as to why a game between a team of today and a. team of yesterday is being played. One fe'low says it's to show up the man who claims the ball play­ ers of today haven't the stuff the old time nine had. To show it’s a serious matter, an­ other fellow of similar convictions makes a wager that Doctor Lofdahl as a pitcher of a generation ago is just as good today as he was in his college days. Further, it is contend ed that file Doctor can get together a nine that will wipe the earth with any team of kids. One claim led to another, and over the week end the kids boiled over too. Monday came a challenge to a game from the high school nine. The challege was prompt'y accept­ ed by the Doctor and his friends, who asked Varney to throw together a squad of Old Timers who can vindi­ cate the judgment that favors the powers of an older generation. The Milkman (free advertising) said he would catch the game if Dr. Lofdahl would pitch, and from the following seasoned players he has built the rest of a team to put the youngsters in place: Ralph Hess, Louis Diamante, Arlie Reed. Louis Carter, Charles Higdon, Ab Mason and Louis Kraft. There is a waiting list of players in case relief pitchers, pinch hitters, baserunners or other substitutions are needed. Mrs Elmira Howell, 76, Died In Grand Rapids Widow Ol Muluon Howell. Been In Di Health For Some Time. !!■£'_'------ । Had Mrs. Elmira Pitts Howell, 76, wid­ ow of Madison (Matt) Howell, well known Nashville resident, passed away at 9 a. m. Saturday in the home of her daughter, Mrs. Myrtle Ham­ mond,, at 1301 Division avenue South in Grand Rapids. Mrs. Howell had been out of health for some time and of late had resided with the daughter. The Howell home, in the outskirts of the village, is now occupied by the Earl Knolls family who just recently moved there. Elmira R. Pitts, daughter of John and Sophia Pitts, was bom Feb. 2, 1864, at Hickory Comers, Mich., and departed this life May 4, 1940, at Grand Rapids, Mich., at the age of 76 years, three months and two days. On August 12, 1879, she was united in marriage to Madison Howell. To this union were born four children, Mrs. Myrtle Hammond of Grand Rap­ ids. Norman, Glenn and Carl of Nash­ ville. They came to Nashville to make their home and resided here until death claimed the husband nine years ago. Soon after the death of her ! husband she went to make her home with her daugther in Grand Rapids where she has been tenderly cared for in her declining years. Surviving are the four children, 10 grandchildren and four great-grand­ children; an aged aunt, and many other relatives. , The remains were brought here to the Hess Funeral Home where ser­ vices were held on Monday afternoon with Rev.

Lofdahl To Pitch, V»rney To Catch. By Gene Altenau? “Dickinson versus VanWagoner" will be the Michigan gubernatorial issue next November, according to best bets today at the state capital. Although neither the present gov­ ernor nor the state highway commis­ sioner have formally tossed their hats into the political ring, observers take it for granted that they will do so at the proper time. Two recent events are seen as har­ bingers of Dickinson's nomination for the Republican choice for governor. First, Dr. H. Allen Moyer of Char­ lotte, personal physician of Governor Dickinson's, announced that the gov­ ernor was fit as a fiddle to make a campaign and. in fact, was in better health now at 81 than he was a year ago, an octogenarin. Second. 80 year old former Gover­ nor Chase S. Osborn \ released a 16page letter in which he expanded upon his previous criticisms of Mr. Dickin­ son, releasing such barbed epithets as “Michigan's chief bartender," “inflat­ ed egotist." and “conscious hypo­ crite.” Osborn concluded with a tart plea for Dickinson to step aside. Intimates of the governor are smil­ ing. If anything was needed to in­ duce the governor that he should run again, Osborn's front .page statement was regarded as removing any doubt. Of course. Dickinson seldom if ever is a candidate. He merely has been nominated with regularity and has been elected In the same way. i.................. ■■■' ■" NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, MAY 9, 1940 । .i.—n.,....... , NUMBER 45.

We moderns are incon­ sistent in very many ways, and never more so than when we deny this very accusation. For instance, we search the land for old furniture, china, and glass­ ware for which we pay prices far in excess of value. There is slavery to style—we dis­ card beautiful costumes because they are old, artistic draperies and floor coverings, all possessing real utility­ value, because we must keep up with the Joneses. , Worse than all this, we supplant customs that were refined with prac­ tices that are really vulgar in order to be modern. g The trouble is we are superficial concerning our modem ideas and ideals as much as we are about what was artistic in former days.—Frank B. Craig. The Government The federal govLoaes Again— emment loaned money t o home owners and here is what has happen­ ed: In the three years of lending oper­ ations, HOLC made 1,017,8227 loans. That phase of its activity ended June 30, 1036. At the end of 1939 full payments had been made on 65,­ 000 mortgages. The corporation, however, had taken over close to 240,000 homes, had sold 80,800 and still held title to the rest. The orig­ inal loans had averaged alomst exact­ ly 53,000, but on the homes sold after foreclosure the government had an average loss of about 31,000. Many borrowers, of course, had made no real effort to keep up payments. The present accumulated deficit is about 360.000,000. What it will be even­ tually depends on the market trend in real estate. Foreclosures are still being made at the rate of 400 a month, and sales of foreclosed homes at the rate of 4,000 a month. Little Private In a recent talk Miracles. Lloyd Douglas, the famous author, told the story about Pygmalion, the sculptor, and his statue—Galatea. Out of the cold marble, with loving, painstaking care, Pygmalion chiseled the form of a beautiful woman. Working on his masterpiece with sincere devotion, he found himself falling in love with his creation. For­ saking all other things he labored day and night And then the miracle oc­ curred! Galatea changed from cold marble to a living, breathing person ality! She came alive! Many a failure is frozen in the marble of fear. A word of courage or hope from us may create the spark that will bring him to life. There are many jxjtentially happy people whose lives are imprisoned in the marble of despair and pessimism, people who may be liberated into the sunshine of more abundant living by something friendly and cheerful we may say to them. As we journey along, contacting people on the highways and byways of life, we are sculptors of personali­ ties. We may be the creators of lit­ tle private miracles. A friendly hand on a shoulder. An expression of love. In little ways’ we may build people up, inspire them, strengthen them, spur them onward and upward in life. We have the power as human sculptors to make people come alive to the glory of triumphant living!— The Silver Lining. ------ o “The More than nineteen hunGod-Man" dred years ago there was a male child born. In in­ fancy He startled a king; in child­ hood He puzzled the doctors; in man­ hood He ruled the course of nature, walked on billows as if pavements, and hushed the sea to sleep. He never founded a college but all the schools put together cannot boast of having as many students. He never practiced medicine, yet His name has healed more broken hearts than have all the doctors near and far. He never marshaled an army, drafted a soldier nor fired a gun; yet no leader ever had more volunteers who under His orders made more rebels stack arms and surrender without a shot being fired. The names of the proudest states­ men of Greece and Rome have come and gone. The names of the past scientists, philosophers and theolog ians have come and gone but the name of THE MAN abounds more and more. Though time has spread nineteen hundred years between the people of this generation and the scene of His crucifixion, yet He still lives! Herod could not kill Him, Satan could not seduce Him. death could not destroy Him and the grave could not hold Him. He stands forth on the highest pinnacle of heavenly glory, proclaimed of God, acknowledged by angels, adored by saints and feared by the devils, as the LIVING PER­ SONAL CHRIST. This man, as you know, was Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour. It wib one great leap from the throne of God to a manger in a sta­ ble.

He became the Son of man that we might become the Sons of God. By receiving Him as our Saviour we may have life eternal. Jesus Christ, who was God manifest in the flesh, came to give YOU life! Will you honor Him this day by receiving Him into your heart by faith-believ­ ing? He will witness to you that He ever lives! — Today's Gospel Truth, by Irving G. Wahlstrom. Throw Them Ever since the Dies Out. un-American commit­ tee came into being, headlines have earned stories about the subversive activities of many or­ ganizations, particularly those of the German-American Bund and the Communist party. Much of the testimony has been taken by the public with a pinch of salt and much of it has been fact. The latest information revealed in Dies hearings is that the Communists control the transportation systems in New York and that they hold key positions in the nation's communica tions systems. This is very alarming news if true. In the United States no man is de­ nied the right to think as he pleases, or to say what he chooses. That is his privilege under the Constitution. But doing something that undermines the very democracy under which he claims his rights is another matter. If a man wishes to subscribe to the doctrines of Stalin, Lenin, Hitler or Mussolin^ that is his business. But, if he so thinks, he should be removed from any key position from which he could put those doctrines into prac­ tice. It is a fearsome thing to think that the union which mans such an im- portant unit of modern life M the New York Rapid Transit is so power­ ful that, at a word from Moscow, it can fierce that unit to cea»e to func­ tion. It ia even more fearsome to contemplate the results of the seiz­ ure of the nation's telephone, tele­ graph and radio facilities. The people of this nation are in­ clined to be easy-going. We tend to be somewhat like the ostrich which buries his head in the sand believing that what he can't see can't hurt him, in many matters of grave im portance. We are being fed propa­ ganda from abroad in such large doses that the average person ia in­ clined - to discount everything he hears. But there are menaces at home that are alive and very real and they are menaces that no true American can safely ignore. As the richest and most progressive nation of the world we are, in the words of Rep. Dies, a rich “prize of war.” Covetous eyes are cast at us from all directions, particularly those of the Communists. That they exist in great numbers in the United States cannot be denied. They exist be­ cause the Constitution permits them to exist. That they are active in their efforts to discredit democracy also is well known, but many of us are too much absorbed in other matters to pay much attention to this vital fact. It should be the duty of every one of us to do whatever is in our power to throw these Reds out of any posi­ tion in which they can carry on their subversive activities. They cannot be denied the right of free thought or free speech, but an informed and awakened citizenry can prevent them from holding positions within labor organizations and governmental ag­ encies from which they can put their destructive ideas into practice. They should be exposed. No pat­ riot Would listen to them if they pro­ pounded their theories in straight­ forward statements. They don’t do that They bore from within.—Ad­ rian Daily Telegram. ■ ■■-o ■ • The Attitude Of One of the most Spiritual Thought, common desires of men and wo­ men is to throw off binding restric­ tions and limitations. But how? Barriers to wider scope and greater abilities may have seemed adamant. Apparently most of us have accepted the belief that we can penetrate no farther into unexplored fields of thought than to the limits which socalled material sense has set for us. Yet many thinkers today are not sat­ isfied to consent to such limits. They are striving to break down their prison walls and escape into freedom. Aspiration is always with us. It cannot be stifled. In every walk of life there are thinkers who have reached the place where they are glimpsing' instead of finiteness and barriers, infinite possibilities. As Mary Baker Eddy writes on page 365 of “Mlscellneous Writings." “Mortal mind is calling for what immortal Mind alone can supply.’’ No longer content to be hemmed in by mortal measurements, humanity is rising to greet a new day of spiritual unfoldment and progress, for Christian Sci­ ence has opened the door to a great­ er understanding of man’s capabili ties, scope, and powers. It has brought to the world the revelation that true thought knows no limita­ tion, restriction, or prison walls. The human body may be imprisoned, but thought never. True thought dwells in realms of beauty and light It comes from God. the only Mind, and ceaselessly gathers from the eternal source freshness and inspiration. When the fact is understood that there is only one Mind, and that man expresses this Mind and no other, horizons pro­ portionately widen, capabilities ex­ pand. Mrs. Eddy, on page 258 of “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures.” writes, “God expresses in man the infinite idea forever develop­ ing itself, broadening and rxhig higher and higher from a boundless basis.** Christian Scientists, in learning that they have an inexhaustible source from which to replenish their store of wisdom, ability, and energy, find that their businesses are being blessed with intelligent ideas, and that' they are better able to cope with their problems; that whatever the de­ mand, the supply may be seen and utilized. Someone may say: “This is all probably true of spiritual thought, but I am human, and my thinking is very much along material lines. I have not yet reached the elevation of spiritual thought.” Christian Science comes to us in the place where it finds us. Many whom it touches have known little spirituality in their thinking. Some may have been steep­ ed in materiality and its indulgences. Because the questionable joys of this state of thought no longer satisfy, because health has broken down and the limit of endurance has been reached, they turn to more worthy activities and alms. Then it is that Road Tested Lkemc Platea. The 1941 model of Michigan's au­ tomobile license plate will be a ■Toad-tested” job. In his effort to ar rive at a proper combination of size, color and design, Harry F. Kelly, secretary of state, has ordered the production of a dozen or more sample­ plates, all of which will be used on the road, to be studied under actual driv­ ing conditions. State police and automobile manu­ facturers will join in giving scientific tests. Their conclusions will deter­ mine just what kind of plate will adorn the 1941 car of the Michigan motorist “Vlisibility is a chief consideration of the law-enforcement officers," says Mr. Kelly. ’They want to be able to see the license numbers at long dis­ tances. The manufacturers are in­ terested alsc because they desire a plate that will harmonize with the stream-lining of the cars they pro­ duce, and one which will be easily fit­ ted to the car. "The automobile engineers have joined with us in producing various designs. The suggestions of those who favor a smaller plate are being thoroughly considered. We certainly would favor a smaller one, so long as visibility were not sacrificed, be­ cause the state saves money in reduc­ ing the size, less steel being required. “When the police officers and the automotive research men get thru testing the different samples on the roads, we’U study their findings. The final selection will be based on actual driving experience, not on any per­ sonal preference for this or that color combination, size, or any other factor entering into the problem.' <1 CHIGAN STATE J SCHOOL AND HIGHWAY RADIO HIGHIJGHTff MONEYS, EATON COUNTY Money from three state school aid Station WKAR.

(Judges v. 20.)’’ He who allies himself with God, Mind .and recognizes and utilizes di­ vine intelligence, may know and prove that there are no limits to his keen­ ness of perception. Reflecting and expressing the intelligence which is God. he will know in every emergen­ cy the right way to go, the right de cision to make. There can be no dif­ ficulty for the one who understands that thought finds its source in God. No problems are unsolvable, for true thought brings its own fulfillment, for nothing can hinder or obstruct that which emanates from God. Bar­ riers go down before the recognition of the ability which Mind has be­ stowed on man.

To maintain the state's reputation for ita kidney beans, he suggests these three meth­ ods of getting rid of the faders: 1. Before planting time, soak a. sample of any questionable beans. If a high percentage loses seed coat­ color, get some other seed. 2. Vined plants should be rogued or pulled out of the growing crop. This rogueing should also include plants with off-color blossoms. The true red kidney has pinkish purple blos­ soms. 3. A seed plot may be maintained to produce pure quality seed. This permits selection of true to type plants and also selection of plants that have less seed borne disease. About 30 were in attendance at last meeting.

James Ra ph Wooten for the 1940 ed tion of The World's Fair Anthol­ ogy of Verse. The author’s poem en­ titled "Autobiography of a Timid Soul,” also qualifies in $100 poetry contest. The author is one of the latest "finds” to be enrolled in the ranks of the Word’s Fair Anthology authors. The Exposition Press announces. The author, an outstanding compe­ titor in the $100 Prize Poetry con­ test, still open to all poets, excelled in keen nation-wide competition of un­ precedented merit. This l.terary con­ tribution has won the coveted privi­ lege of being among the select group chosen for representation in the Wor ds Fair Anthology, so.eagerly awaited by American literary circles. Earlier work of the author’s has been published in the following publi­ cations: frequently in the Michigan Christian Advocate and other mem­ bers of the religious press; in various secu ar papers, and in "Mirrors of Michigan," a book of verse by Mich­ igan Methodists. There has also been an occasional poem in The Nashville Newa A few inquiries by Exposition Press concerning the author’s life reveals that he is a Methodist minister, sen­ ior effective member of the Michigan Conference: has had some newspaper experience; writes frequently for the church press; has served pastorates in Alma, Fremont, Greenville, Grand Rapids, Lansing. Marshall, and else­ where in Michigan, including of course his Nashville pastorate which is rapidly drawing to a c ose, his last pastorate before he is superannuated. Home friends of Mr. Wooton, who have enjoyed his poems from t'me to time, are pleased with this recogni­ tion of his "verse writing" and are glad that It has come at the time of his near transition to private life, when he can give a nearly free hand to his poetic fancies.

To sit beside the water’s brink With naught to do but sit and think; To sit and think, mayhap to fish. That's the vacation I could wish. To fish, I say, though not to catch; For, sad to say, I am no match For finny tribes that roam the drink; Yet do I love to fish and think. I may not spoil the finny haunts; I may get sand burrs in my pants; Mosquitoes may bite more than fish, But this vacation still I wish. Then lead me to some sheltered spot Where I can fish and be forgot; That quiet spot will suit my wish; TH catch a thought, if not a fish. —J. R. Wooton. No one is useless in the world who lightens the burden of its for anyone else.—Charles Dickens. Alejandro E. Bunge, noted Argen­ tine economist, predicted that “race suicide’’ will end Caucasion suprem­ acy in world affairs. He derided ob­ jections of "over-population," and de­ clared the American continent could support "another 500 or 600 million white men." Speaking at Notre Dame university, Bunge said there has been a "deadening decline in the birth" rate" for the last 30 years, and that “the best fitted and most favored peo­ ple are not even maintaining their number." Results of this trend, as envisioned by Bunge will be: “A thin­ ning out will be noticed in the ranks of those capable of bearing arms, wielding the hammer, plowing the fields, and using the Instruments of science and art. Asylums will have to be enlarged. Life will be ex­ tremely hard for a few healthy men and women of working age. who will be the only ones to fill the hungry coffers of the state." The Argentine expert was in this county to attend the Pan-American Scientific congress in Washington May 10-18. “Playing The The wise man’s Game Squarely" son may become a fool. Th* rich man's son may end up in a ten-cent bed. The Christian man’s boy may become a hypocrite. This is true becaase in­ formation does not come through heredity, and every man must learn the laws of life for himself. Our fathers met God squarely without excuse, and they found a rugged faith, which brought to their souls and to the nation liberty, peace and plenty. They would die gladly before they would fool with the laws of God. They could not take the speculation of learned doctors and professors concerning eternal issues. They must know, and they did know. In the path of perfect obedience to God they found a living spring and their thirsty souls were satisfied. Will you be governed by the rules of faith in Jesus Christ, God's Son, who opened up to our fathers a life from above? “He that believeth on the Son hath ever!acting life; and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him." John 3:36.—Today's Gospel Truth, by Irv­ ing G. Wahlstrom. Turning To The American Bible soThe Word, ciety is holding iU 124th annual meeting this week in New York City. From a study of its annually increasing cir­ culation of the Scriptures one would deduce that people are more and more turning to the Bible, this book which speaks in so many languages and penetrates the farthest corners of the earth. Many a man who never read the Book before is beginning to hear in its unchanging accents what at last he finds to be the positive an­ swer to his own and the world s des­ pair. The American Bible society has faced this man before—from the start it has faced him. The man without the Book has symbolized the appalling need that brought the society into be­ ing one hundred and twenty-four years ago. His plight it was that es­ tablished the society's first Foreign Agency in 1836 and the work for the blind a year earlier. It is his won­ dering. half-distrustful look that keep* translators' and revisers' lamps with ten of the IT strategic mater­ ials, including Bix of the “first prior­ ity" which we can obtain nowhere else In the world. The conclusion is inescapable that we could not carry on a war of any length and magnitude if we were cut off from access to the products of the Dutch East Indies, the Straits Set­ tlements and the Philippines. That is why the threat of Japanese conquest to the south is a menace to the United States which must be re­ moved, at all costs. We have enough rubber to last six weeks. We have enough tin to laat ten weeks. We have no reserves of quinine or manila rope or tungsten or coco shell. Jap­ anese naval control in that region could cut off our entire supply of a‘1 of them. In 1937 the Department of State asked Congress for money to lay in stocks of strategic materials. Two years later Congress eked out 10 millions—enough to buy one. month's supply of rubber alone. This year Congress managed to find 12 millions. Congress showed incredible blind­ ness. But, after all, the proposed re­ serves—necessary as they are—are only a temporary first-aid. The only real protection is warships and naval stations—enough of them, no matter what they may cost, that Japan will not dare to challenge the United States anywhere in the Pacific Ocean. —Adrian Daily Telegram. burning far into the night, and the feet of the messengers of peace trudging over the highways and by­ ways of forty countries to bring the glad tidings of One who saves unto the uttermost. The man without the Book—there are hundreds of millions who have never even heard of the Book. But where the man without the Book has heard of it, his one-time scorn is not so evident today; his indifference is giving way to the spirit of inquiry and his troubled soul is a. bit more disposed to wonder if here, after all. in this book he may have spurned be­ fore, is not the answer to the deepest Security.

Final summary of the AAA farm plans signed in Barry county this spring shows that 2541 farms intend to cooperate with the' 1940 Triple A program, Glenn Wotri ng, chairman of the Barry County Agricultural Con­ servation committee, reported this week. May 1 was the deadline for completing and signing the farm plan. The sign-up this year indicates that about 172,996.6 acres, or 82 per cent of Barry county cropland, will be farmed under the provisions of the Agricultural Conservation program. Throughout Michigan. 145,220 far­ mers have indicated by signing their farm plans that they Intend to cooper­ ate with the Agricultural Conserva­ tion program in 1940, according to a report Glenn Wotring received from Maurice A. Doan, state AAA chair­ man. These 145,220 farmers will op­ erate about 74 per cent of Michigan's cropland this year, Dtaa said in the report. The farm plan, which each farmer has worked out with the help of an AAA committeeman, includes the acreage allotments for the farm, the soil building practices which will be carried out on the farm, and an esti­ mate of the maximum payment which the farmer may earn through his co­ operation with the 1940 AAA pro­ gram. Farmers who have signed their farm plans and who cooperate in the urogram this year will be eligible for (1) 1940 agricultural conservation payments, (2) price adjustment pay­ ments, and (3) crop loans, if offered. £J^ORLp °f fOoD Mortals can never be in any place where divine Love is not present and available to meet the human need. Mrs. Eddy has expressed this beauti fully and emphatically on page 494 of Science and Health: "Divine Love al­ ways has met and always will meet every human need.” Security, then, from every ill, is found in the con­ sciousness of the ever-presence of di­ vine Love which meets all needs. We learn through Christian Science to repeat with understanding the words of the Psalmist (Psalms 81:2), “I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: My God; in him will I trust"—Christian Science Monitor.

RECENTLY I listened to a high public offi­ cial discuss tbs problem of un­ employment and its cure. The lat­ ter, he declared, was to be found in increased pro­ duction through technological methods and its consequent reduc­ tion of prices. If all prices were low, he declared, the people would buy and use them and unemploy­ ment would end. But he forgot the most important factor — the buying power of these same people now out of work. Unless people have money, it makes little difference to them whether automobiles be sold for 12,000 or for $100. It seems to me ke put the cart before the horse. A little over 100 attended the splendid Penny supper and speech Thursday night put on at the Com­ munity House by the Townsend club. Much credit is due Mrs. Alice Youngs for her capable management of the supper. Her committees, all working in perfect harmony doing the work assigned them, were as follows: Mrs. Ed. Penfold, Mrs. Allie Penfold. Mrs. Wm. Southward, Mrs. Wm. Muter, Mrs. Wm. Coolbaugh. Mrs. W. M. Farr. Mrs. Rena Miller, Hazelbelie White, Mrs. Alice Greenfield, Mrs. Wilma Greenfield and Mrs. Viola Ha­ german, who also helped plan the menu. Mrs. Belle Greenfield acted as hostess, and Mrs. Perry VanTuyl as cashier. During the intermission Chas. Van­ Tuyl and Grover Arnold furnished violin and piano music. Other arrangements for the meet­ ing, such as advertising, setting up tables, etc., were in charge of the presidenL Ed. Purchis, the second vije presidenL Perry VanTuyl, and the janitor, Merton BennetL Members were present representing Hastings, Vermontville, Charlotte, Portland and Battle Creek clubs. The meeting was called to order at 8 oclock by the president who asked Rev. Wooton to offer prayer. One verse of America was sung, which was followed by giving Alle­ giance to our Country’s Flag. Maurice West from the Portland club sang two songs for us, the Townsend words for which were his own composition. They were sung to the tunes of The Old Rugged Cross and Rock of Ages, and were well re­ ceived. The speaker of the evening, Joseph Warnock, who has become well known to Nashville audiences, was then an­ nounced, and he gave a most forcible address on "How the Townsend Plan Would Abolish All Taxes.” He left with us the thought that if we study the "Sermon on the Mount" and the 25th chapter of Mat­ thew and put them into practice, that we would all become real Townsendites. STANDARD OIL UPS ADV. BUDGET; 75 PCT. IN PAPERS Standard Oil Company of Indiana will increase its advertising budget for 1940 and place nearly 75 per cent of it in newspapers. Advertisements now starting state that Red Crown gasoline is the 2-to-l favorite of mid­ western motorists, Nashville Standard agent announced today. A total of 1,713 newspapers with a combined circulation of about 14,­ 000,000 will carry the advertising in 13 states in the middle west in w’hlch the company markets. This includes 492 daily papers, and 1,221 weekly papers, of which The Nashville News is one. "Newspaper advertising will be the backbone of the Standard campaign, because everybody buys .gasoline and oil—und everybody reads newspa­ pers," Mr. Johnson said. “Newspapers are read everywhere—on the farm, in the office, in the factory and at home. They have a chance to do their selling in all sorts of places at all times of the day—a silent force, constantly at work," he .explained. —The milk pay roll for the three and one-half years the Pet Milk com­ pany has been in Charlotte has just passed the one million dollar mark. The labor pay roll for the same length of time, including truckers, has amounted to 5160.000. An industry such as this is a wonderful asset to the community.—Tales About Town.

NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, MAY 23, 1940 Nearly Million Books Picked Up • E2«ht Pages • Fishing Competition NUMBER 47. Rev. W. C. Bassett Is Returned Here FofflidaUoa'i Bant" Pro­ duces Huge Number Of Trade­ In Volumes. 76th Annual Mtehig«n Conference Of Evangelical Churches Made Many Changes. The seven-county “scavenger” hunt for old books was history today and the tattered, dust-laden, torn volumes forgotten as southwestern Michigan residents looked forward to reading new books which will be given them by the W. K. Kellogg Foundation. At least 920,000 old books were gathered up by school children of Cal­ houn, Barry, VanBuren. Eaton, Branch, Allegan and Hil’sdale coun­ ties and taken to their schools during the unique campaign. For every five of the aged volumes turned in, the Foundation will place one new book in the school and community librar­ ies of the counties. The sole purpose of the extensive campaign was to Improve the library facilities of the counties. The out­ moded books will be sold for pulp, the proceeds to be u.-ed by the counties in any program which benefits children. The number of old books obtained in counties was as. follows: Calhoun 153,000: Branch 100,000; VanBuren 167,200: Allegan 182,000: Eaton 107,­ 000; Barry 110,000; and Hillsdale 100,­ 000. Of the new books to be given away, more than 4,000 will be presented to the Lakeview, Batt'e Creek, school library, making possible the extension of the library’s services to all resi­ dents of the Lakeview community. Lakeview children collected a total of 27,791 old books. The 76th annual Michigan Confer­ ence of the Evangelical church was onened by the chairman. Bishop Geo. E. Epp, D. D., of Naperville, Hl., at the Evangelical church in Pigeon, Mich., on Wednesday afternoon, May 15th. A Communion service was conduct­ ed by the Bishop, assisted by the three District Superintendents. A Memorial service was held for the ministers, ministers' wives, and rela­ tives that have passed on during the year. . The organization of Conference proceeded with precision. The com­ mittees were appointed. Rev. T. A. Moyer of Maple Grove served on the Statistics committee. Rev. W. C. Bassett served on the Christian Edu­ cation committee. On Thursday morning election of District Superintendents took place. The offices of W. H. Watson of the Detroit District and D. C. Ostroth of the Bay City, were open. Rev. Wat­ son was re-elected to serve another four years. Rev. William Koteskey of Mack Avenue church in Detroit elected to the place of Rev. Ostroth. Sunday morning the Ordination ser­ vice was conducted by the Bishop. Three men received their license to preach and three were ordained to the office of Deacon. Rev. N. C. Liesemer. who conducted special meetings in the Nashville church last fall, was ordained to the office of Elder. On Sunday afternoon the annual Missionary service was held at the high school auditorium. Bishop Epp gave the message: "The Missionary Challenge of the City." Some of the changes in appoint­ ments will be of interest to Nashville people. Rev. T. A. Moyer, now serv­ ing the Maple Grove churches, will move to the parsonage at C overdale and will serve all three churches. Rev. S. R. Wurtz, formerly of Nashville, was moved from the Royalton circuit toBrownCity. Rev. C. C. Gibson, Fin­ ancial Secretary of the Conference, took Chelsea Ave. church and will serve along with his other work. Rev. D. C. Ostroth, former District Super­ intendent of the Bay City area, will be pastor at the Waterman Avenue church in Detroit Rev. G. Knechtel, former superintendent of the Haven Hubbard Old People’s Home, will serve Wyandotte, near Detroit. Rev. S. C. Walton, formerly of Cloverdale, will move to the Maple Hill-Turk Lake charge. Rev. H. E. Kohn, who filled the vacancy of Rev. Klopfen­ stein at Woodland Evangelical, will serve at Marcellus and complete his schooling at the Evangeical Theologi­ cal Seminary at Naperville. Rev. J. S. Deabler of Elkton will move to Wood'and as pastor. The Rev. W. C. Bassett, pastor of the local Evangeli­ cal church for the past two years, will continue to serve in Nashvillle, which is good news to this church and the community. The 1941 Conference will be held at Reed City.

That is a most hopeful chord struck by one whose opinion amounts to something for that great mass of men who are at the very peak of their efficiency and activity at upward of 40 years of age but who have been suffering in recent years because of a wild theory that a man has outlived his usefulness at 40. Just who is the author of this funly idea we do not know, but every man engaged in any sort of business or profession knows full well that while we need the vigor and the ener­ gy and the gambling spirit of youth in all walks in life, we need likewise the leaven of experience and steadi­ ness of purpose of men not only 40 years of age but those even 70.

A city waa brought face to face with the problem of controlling the recreation of young people in their late teens and early twenties, for it was discovered that large numbers of them were patronizing road houses and taverns outside the city limits. After numerous futile attempts had been made to interest them in a ser­ ies of dances sponsored by various civic groups, the entire matter was dropped. It is fortunate that the influence of the poolroom and the beer garden is negligible as far as children under fourteen years old are concerned. It is, however, becoming increasingly evident that such places exercise a bad influence on many individuals approaching their maturity. The number of automobiles parked around a city’s public dance halls or the nearby road houses, serves as a barometer to indicate that such a city is devoid of wholesome methods of re­ creation.

A mobile unit for checking sea es used by the state highway depart­ ment .n measuring materials for con­ struction and maintenance is now op­ erating throughout the state. A large truck carryig 12,000 pounds of test weights was recently placed in service by the department to check scales on projects in more remote areas of the state. Previously these scales have been checked only aga nst approved local scales or by the sealer of weights from the department of agriculture. Difficulties encountered in rural areas where approved scales or proper authorities were not availab’e led’to the equiplng of the mobile truck. The unit is used in checking scales used to measure maintenance gravel, concrete, and bituminous materials. Definite engineering information on the feas bility of i. Mackinac Straits Bridge will be available about Jun? 1, was announced by the Mackinac Straits Bridge Authority. G. Donald Kennedy, chairman of the authority, said that Modjcski and Masters, consulting engineers for the project, of Harrisburg, Pa., would have their report completed on that date. The report is to contain infor­ mation on the type of bridge that might be built, an estimate of the cost, and traffic studies. All field work in connection with the study of the project has been completed with the cooperation of the state highway department and other agencies. Outstanding development of this study- was the proposal of a causeway from the north shore of the Straits. This causeway might be con­ structed as a terminal for the state ferry service and later become a part of the bridge project It would shor­ ten the distance to be traveled by the state boats by about two-hlrds. Kennedy pointed out that field work in gathering scientific information for the consulting engineers had been in progress over a period of a. year and a half. It has included soundings of the Straits, borings to determine the location of bed rock and other strata underneath the water, special surveys of the area, traffic studies, and even investigation of available materials within a radius of 50 miles of the Straits.

BARRY SUPERVISORS ARE “CALMER,” MAYOR FINDS Mayor Floyd H. Barry of Rattle Creek was a visitor at the May ses­ sion of the Barry county board of supervisors in Hastings Wednesday afternoon. The mayor was in Hustings to at­ tend a hearing on the proposed Fine lake dam and dropped into the super­ visors' meeting for a few minute? af­ ter the dam hearing was adjourned indefinitely. In a few brief remarks, he observ­ ed that the Barry supervisors seemed to do their work more "smoothly" than the Calhoun county board, of which he is a member. "Your session is a lot calmer thah our ever is," he told them.

THURSDAY, MAY 30, 1940 Eight Page* Mrs. C. L. Glasgow, 78, Died In Grand Rapids Dawn Patrol Michigan Mirror By Gene Alleman ' Michigan industrial plants, geared to meet sudden demands of America's new preparedness program, are re­ ported suffering from a shortage of skilled labor. At Washington where a vast avia­ tian program is being rushed to legis­ lative completion, military experts decry the lack of trained ground me­ chanics as a serious barrier to im­ mediate realization of the world's foremost air force as recommended by President Roosevelt In this situation of national emer­ gency it is a sad commentary on gov­ ernment, and democracy in particular, that with all this feverish appeal for trained workers—men who inciden­ tally command good pay — govern­ ment has done comparatively little to rehabilitate the idle thousands on public relief and the idle thousands inside prison walls to fill jobs such as these. The state social welfare commis­ sion is reported to be fu'Iy cognizant of the need of rehabilitation for fam­ ily heads in those areas of . northern Michigan, outside the industrial belt. But the state has a deficit of approx­ imately 30 millions; the legislature re­ duced the relief appropriation, and you can’t spend money you haven't got The prison situation appears to be somewhat different. Therein lies an interesting story— one that is off the beaten track. It is the story of Michigan’s “forgotten men’’—the 7,500 inmates of our pris­ ons. institutions and departments on a n on-compulsory basis. "Out of the 490 men who have been, employed at the Jackson prison tex­ tile mill. 200 have just been laid off due to lack of state orders," said Mr. Burke, whose offices are at Jackson. “These men go back into their cells, idle and unproductive. In the mean­ while, state purchasing agents are buying textile goods elsewhere. “The law requiring men to have jobs before being paroled is sound. But at the same time it falls to pro­ vide that these men prepare themsel­ ves while in prison to assume their places again in society. Our prison program has been negligent in this regard. Require prison inmates to do something that will teach them the habits of industry; make them Self­ supporting and you will improve their attitude toward society." Burke lauded the state corrections commission for establishment recent­ ly of a trade school at Ionia reform­ atory in cooperation with private in­ dustry. Industry Critical. Michigan manufacturers have been critical of prison industry. The low cost of prison labor, 10 to 25 cents a day, is an emblem of “unfair compe­ tition."’ they say. But in the meanwhile thousands of prisoners are in idleness, supported by society itself and denied the privi­ lege of learning and practicing a use­ ful trade. Here is the old problem.- Shortage of skilled labor in private industry 5,000 Prisoners Idle. and the constant rise in cost of gov­ When citizens’ commit a wrong ernment merely puts in into sharp against their fellows, justice decrees focus once again. * they must be punished.

Glasgow, who at the time of hie death on Dec. 18, 1933, had been in the hardware business hero for over a half century. When she came hare as a bride in 1882. he was already in business, liaving purchased the Wolcott hardware the previous year, and this business has been continued under the Glas­ gow name practically to date with a gradual transition under, the new ownership to its new name, the Plum­ ley Hardware. The varied interests of Mr. Glas­ gow's career, in hardware, as head of the state and national associations, as a leader in Nashville affairs, political, civic, financial, in politics as a state senator, state railroad commis­ sioner. gubernatorial candidate, and their church and social activities, brought much of interest to their married life. After Mr. Glasgow's death, their home here was sold to Dr. Lofdahl, and she has since resided in Grand Rapids. Her immediate survivors are her brother, Frank B. Miller of Grand Rapids and Jackson: nieces and neph­ ews. A brother, Leonard Miller of Ann Arbor, and a sister, Mrs. P. H. Brumm of Grand Rapids, passed on after her husband’s death.

"Do It Now!” Maybe it is an right, as far as it goes; however, we heard about one young executive who got all "hipped up” over the •'Do It Now" psychology ... it seems he had been reading one of those pep books. So, he dashed to his printer and had 100 posters struck off in big, boldface type. . . . "Do It Now.” The next morning he came down to the office, an hour early, and posted them all over the place. The effect was electrical—almost magic! The shipping clerk took one look and eloped with the presidents daughter. The treasurer Immediately "eloped” with the firm’s cash. The purchasing agent pulled out a .45 and dropped the first salesman of the day in his tracks. And Jim, the office boy, . . . that was just what he’d been waiting for! With a shout of glee, he pulled the stopper out of the red ink bottle and fired bottle and contents full-force in­ to the whirling blades of the electric fan. "Do It Now" ? Hm-m, we wonder—The Silver Lining. , o "Around The I think we all have a World.” secret longing to poke our nose into strange nooks and corners around the world. Wouldn’t you want to gaze long and stare out of countenance somebody of strange people, look into his eyes, until his soul says "Hello” by a smile or a movement of the eyelids? Sure! It is a joy, It is fascinating. Travel enlarges our mind. There is much to be seen in our own country and around the world. There is much that is marvelously beautiful. But the words of the men who Spoke to Elisha in Jericho concerning the city and its outlook is true as a text for the whole world condition. These men said, "The situation of the city is pleasant, but the water is naught and the ground is barren" (2 Kings 2:19). I am told that Jer­ icho rests between the hills of Moab and the hills of the wilderness, and that to look upon Jordan and the Dead Sea, and north toward the Sea of Galilee is certainly pleasant About it, however, is a barren land, ialt-soaked and croplcss; also, the water is brackish and rank. Bo it is even where the scenery and the grandeur is most splendid the world around. Religion, which rep­ resents the water of life, is some­ times rank and brackish and woeful­ ly bitter to the taste of mortals, causing unutterable cruelties and privations with added unspeakable immoralities. (The book entitled "Mother India" reveals much about pagan worship to an unknown god.) In the presence of natural wonders, there are barren souls, broken human hearts who stand about ghastly, sodden and ignorant. They have been deadened by centuries of superstition and vice. Behind it all is the cry of millions who have never heard of a Saviour. Remember that mingled into the landscape are millions for whom Christ died. We ought to have a great forward movement for world evangelism. We need young men, older men and business men to rise up and go forth in a great crusade to circle the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ The Gospel is the mes­ sage that meets the deep spiritual hunger of human hearts for that liv­ ing bread of life that none but Christ can satisfy. The preaching of the Grace of God through the cleansing blood of Christ is the one panacea for all men, for all time and for all the world. Many forms of propaganda are working their way around the world. The Gospel, which is the good news of eternal life, is certainly worthwhile propagating. Let’s get busy by tak­ ing it for ourselves first and then telling others.

American ideals are coming in for more appreciation today than ever before. And a high degree of devo­ tion to America and the bill of rights has been inspired by the death of freedom abroad. It is true that one never realizes his blessings until he is deprived of them. And seeing large sections of mankind deprived of the blessings we enjoy in this country is having the same effect Many Americans have until now given the advantages of their citizen­ ship' little thought The bill of rights, they knew, was a part of their con­ stitution, and guaranteed to them the liberties they enjoy. But the tremen­ dous meaning of that document was little known. Now something is to be done about it Democracy has been shouted from the housetops, now it is going to be taught in school. A measure, signed the other day by Governor Lehman, will institute in the public school system of New York state instruction in the purpose, meaning and importance of the bill of rights articles in the Constitution. There is no better way to instill a high and intelligent type of patriot­ ism in our future citizens than an early appreciation of democratic val­ ues. And such an early appreciation will do more than denunciation and propaganda to give the lie to totali­ tarian “isms."—Battle Creek Enquir­ er and News. The Pennsyl- Pennsylvania recently vanla Idea. has been trying to find work in a new way far the jobless. Since last No­ vember a jobs mobilization campaign has been under way, and along with it there has been a movement to en­ courage business. As a result busi­ ness is better in Pennsylvania and when the drive for jobs ended May 1 employment had been provided for 60,000 persons. When the legislature meets later this month it will not have to levy taxes for relief which had been expected. The Pennsylvania drive was direct­ ed by Walter D. Fuller, president of a large publishing concern. He found a far greater opportunity to develop jobs than had been expected, so he extended the dosing of the campaign from March 1 to May 1. The 60.000 jobs that were found, and which saved the state an estimat­ ed $20,000,000 in relief costs for the year, were not manufactured. They were not charity jobs either. They were jobs in regular business. Busi­ ness increased under the work of Mr. Fuller’s committees which were organized in each of Pennsylvania’’s 67 counties and improving business made more work available. “Business will hire as many men and women as it can to mutual ad­ vantage,” Mr. Fuller said in his re­ port. "Our job became one of stim­ ulating and encouraging business— and that la what we did.” Firms that had been considering expansion plane were urged to go ahead and they did. They are under­ taking s.jme $100,000,000 of new con­ struction that had been planned for INI and 1942. Other concerns were encouraged to establish new lines of products, to open up new sales terri­ tories, to buy new equipment. Mr.’ Fuller says that his experience with the campaign indicates that the nation needs a ‘job doctor”—someone to head up a clearing house for re­ employment ideas, to direct the re­ training of displaced workers, and to train apprentices. The Pennsylvania committees found some 2C.000 jobs open and unfilled because employers could locate no trained men or women for them. What Pennsylvania did was to ap­ proach the unemployment problem realistically and from a community standpoint. It got away from the idea that the federal government can and should do everything. That’s one of the nation's troubles. There is too much a disposition to set up a federal agency to cure social or economic ills, give it a big appropriation, and think then that the problem has been solved. The Pennsylvania committees worked with business; they found that business was working with them. That approach to the unemployment problem was in marked contrast to federal efforts. The committee rea­ soned that if jobs were to be found business would have to make them Business made 60,000 of them. What was done in Pennsylvania can be done elsewhere.—Ex. pletely hemmed in by error. Mental confusion and fear may seem to reign. Regardless of how threatening a situation may appear to human sense, there is no fearsome circum­ stance beyond reach of God s healing power. Christ, Truth, is ever with men. guarding and guiding.- No one need be a dupe, a frightened victim of aggressive, ignorant, or malicious mental suggestion. No one need be irritated, terrified, or deceived by the $1.80 subtle, unreal claims of error. Error is unreal—nothing. We must under­ stand that evil has no power, that God contro's all that is real, and that man exists by His authority. Divine! intelligence inspires all righteous ef­ fort, and the one and only intelli­ gence never fails us. Grateful contemplation of our real status as a chl-'d of God plants us on a firm foundation, on the rock of un­ shaken conviction th_at God alone is power. We must claim our full inher­ itance from our one and only Father­ Mother God, our inheritance of spir­ itual riches, dominion, beauty, poise, completeness. Intelligent and happy acceptance of God's bounteous provi­ sion for His children leads steadily and surely to joyous recognition of the ever-present Christ, even, as Jesus promised when he said (Mat­ thew 28.20), "Lo, I am with you alway." The pronouncement in Revelation (19:6) remains forever absolute and final: "And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, ar.d as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omipotent reighneth.”—Christian Science Moni­ tor. "The Lord God The supremacy of Omnipotent God — infinite Mind Relgneth.” primal intelligence, all-pervading Love —is the greet spiritual fact for time and eternity. The mighty truth of God’s -omnipotence silences error and refutes the mortal theory of a mater­ ial universe governed by material laws. There exists only the true spiritual universe of God s creating, complete, eternal, changeless, infinite. Through the revelation of Christian Science the truth of God’s omnipo­ tence is steadily unfolding to human understanding, opening wide the por­ tals of a new visilon, a vision of de­ finite, present reality, wherein exists no discord, no sin, sickness, or death. It is leading mankind to sublime heights, to conscious perception of the true relationship between God and man, one and inseparable, forever perfect and immortal. On page 521 of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures” Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, writes: "The harmony and immortality of man are intact We should look away from the opposite supposition that man is created ma­ terially, and turn our gaze to the spiritual record of creation, to that which should be engraved on the un­ derstanding and heart ‘with the point of a diamond’ and the pen of an an­ gel.” Mortal existence does not accord with this spiritual revelation of ever­ present harmony. To material sense it appears to be a constant warfare with discord. But the assertions of material sense are never true. We need not stand appalled at the spe­ cious claims of the carnal so-called mind that evil has reality and power. EMI is but a misconception, a mortal dream, an utter falsity, which the truth of God’s omnipotence corrects and destroys. In spite of all the con­ trary testimony of the material sen­ ses, God is the only ruler. Unless we are awake to the fallacy of error's claims we are accepting in our daily experience both good and evil as real. But there is no neutral ground whereon the two may mingle. Either Truth or error is supreme; either God is omnipotent or another power exists. Which assertion are we to accept? There can be but one answer to the question. We must take our stand on the side of God as the only power, and make this under­ standing the basis of all our thinking. As we faithfully endeavor to do this, applying the truth in demonstration of our understanding of God as omni­ potent, we soon discover that this spiritual fact is instantly available for practical purposes in the healing of sin and disease. It la the saving power at hand for all who seek God; in very truth the seed within itself bearing seed after its kind. A student of Christian Science once experienced a severe fali from a horse. The material evidence of dis­ cord was quite alarming, suggesting that paralysis and internal injury might prove fatal. But the student refused to accept the mortal verdict. For hours she clung to the truth about God and His loving allness, declaring over and over again that, as His child, she could not be the victim of accident or injury. As she steadfastly clung to this rock of spiritual un­ derstanding the untoward symptoms began to abate, and within twentyfour hours she found herself perfect­ ly whole and free.

The practice of some automobile dealers, and automobile purchaser*, of giving fictitious names or address, or both, in making application for a certificate of title, is to be halted, ac­ cording to a warning issued by Secre­ tary of State Harry F. Kelly. The matter was brought to his attention by the Michigan Automotive Trade association, an organization of new car dealers. "The Motor Vehicle Law gives the Secretary of State authority to stop such practices and if need be I will not hesitate to use this authority in prosecuting the guilty dealers or in­ dividuals," Kelly said. "It may mean that a number of certilcates of title will be revoked." Certain automobile manufacturers have zoned the state in assigning dealerships and a dealer is not per­ mitted to sell cars outside of his al­ lotted territory. In order to avoid the possibility of being charged with infringement if he sold a car to a resdent of another dealer’s territory, the offending dealer either on his own ac­ cord. or with the knowledge of the purchaser, gives a fictitious address and sometimes both name and address in his own territory. "It would seem on the face of it that this is no concern of the state, but the Secretary of State is charged by law with keeping an accurate list of all automobile registrations which must be furnished monthly to the law enforcement agencies,” Kelly said. "Obviously if a fictitious address, or name and address is given my depart­ ment when application is made for a certificate of title, the registration of the automobile described on the ap­ plication is incorrect and of no value to us or to the law enforcement offic­ ers should occasion arise calling for an investigation. In an accident case that might Involve Serious injury or death, oftentimes the only way the identity of the persons involved can be determined is through tracing the automobile license number. It would seem to be. therefore, that the pur­ chaser of an automobile should al­ ways be sure that his correct name and address is given on bls applica­ tion for title.*’ Kelly said that while such cases are few, considering the total regis- Y.

Appearing before the Senate Sub­ committee on Military Appropriations, the Army high command, on May 17, told us that the United States was wholly unprepared to meet the test of war; that it had neither plans, equip­ ment, ammunition, ordnance nor the men necessary for defense. That was the substance of the testimony of General George C. Marshall, Chief of Staff, who told us that we lacked men; of Major General E. H. Arnold, Chief of the Army Air Corps, who in­ formed us that our airplanes were in­ ferior; that, to send the army's best bomber "against modem equipment would be suicide "; of Major General C. M. Wesson. Ordnance Chief, who disclosed the lack of ordnance. We should be prepared. As Col­ onel Lindbergh asked, prepared for what? Prepared on the first line of defense which, as the President once said, was on the Rhine ? Or prepared as all of us agree, to defend America from invasion? We cannot prepare and, in my judgment, we should not think of preparingt ,o send an army or a navy abroad. No American who loves his home, his family, his coun­ try, should for a moment hesitate to give everything, to do his utmost, tn the defense of our nation.

ARSENATE IS FATAL TO STRIKED BEETLES Of the pests that attack melons, cucumbers and squash, one of the most damaging and persistent is the striped cucumber beetle. As soon as the plant appear out of the ground the small, black and yellow striped beetles appear, sometimes arriving in swarms, often causing serious damage before they.are noticed. Not only do the beetles cause dam­ age vby eating the plants, Prof. E. L McDaniel of the M. S. C. entomology department warns, but they spread wilt disease, which destroys the vines. The wide spread of this pest has led to many remedies. Professor Mc­ Daniel reports, but perhaps the eas­ iest to apply and the most effective is calcium arsenate and powdered gypsum. This is applied in the ratio of one part of arsenate to 19 parts of gypsum. The powder should be ap­ plied as soon as* the plants appear above the surface of the ground, and the aplication should be repeated af­ ter every rain, as it washes off and the plants are left helpless against the blitzkrieg of the beetles. Because gypsum dot-a not go on well with a duster, a good way of ap­ plication is to punch holes in a tin can to make a sifter, and thus shake the dust on the plants. Another good method is to use a piece of burlap as a duster, being careful to keep the edges of the burlap gathered up in the hand. As the plants grow, all new growth should be kept well powdered to pro­ test the tender plants. MILLER'S ICE CREMM AT WORLD'S FAIR The Miller Dairy Farms has receiv­ ed a request from the management of the New York World’s Fair for a two gallon sample of their famous high-test, farm-made ice cream, and two gallons of their black sweet cherry product will be sent as direct­ ed. The sample will go direct to the administration building, where it un­ doubtedly will be tested and passed on as to quality and other favorable features.

If Would Be Center Of Military Activity Camp Custer may soon become the center of military activity on a scale that has not been seen since the days of 1917 and 1918 when as many as 50.000 troops were in training at the can tan mentSecy. of War Woodring's proposal to nearly double the present area of the camp by thz purchase of an addi­ tional 6,126 acres will give Battle Creek one of the largest and most useful army training centers in the sixth corps area. With the U. S. about to launch the largest peacetime defense program in history, an enlarged Camp Custer will naturally be used more extensively for troop training than at any time since the war. The proposed expansion would give Camp Custer a total length of ap­ proximately nine miles, which army officers say would be sufficient to pro­ vide a firing range for guns as large as 155 millimeters. The possibility of training artillery crews at the camp would Increase its usefulness tremen­ dously. With its present area of only 8,865’ acres the army has tried to use light artillery at the camp, but such use has resulted In claims by nearby far­ mers for livestock killed by shells. When the joint congressional military affairs committee ' visited the camp last Dec. 12, Col. Archelaus Hamblen of the sixth corps area explained the shortcomings of the camp to the vis­ iting congressmen. "If we fire artil­ lery,” the colonel said, “we usually hit some farmer’s cow and it always turns out to be a very valuable cow.” During the war fairly heavy field guns were fired at camp, but that was before the area of the reservation was reduced by the transfer of 600 acres to the veterans administration for its hospital. Dr. H. G. Clarke, manager of the hospital, has informed army officers that artillery’ practice at camp would not Interfere with patients in the hospital. The adidtional acreage also will im­ prove the camp as a center for train­ ing infantry. The open country now included in the camp and the territory around it is considered ideal by the army for Infantry field problems. Not only would the expansion im­ prove the camp for Infantry and ar­ tillery training, but it would also bring it nearer to Kellogg airport, giving the reservation air facilities that It does not now have.

The only safe course in mushroom gathering is to know a few safe va­ rieties well, and stick to them. If a mushroom looks only slightly differ­ ent, it is not safe. It is still too early for the common meadow mushroom to appear, and anyone who‘thinks he has found such a fungus growing In the woods should leave it growing and seek elsewhere.

May 25, is the 44th an­ niversary of the Miller Dairy Farms in the ice cream business on the orig­ inal site. When one stts down in an air-conditioned, modem dispensary and orders a delicious sundae or soda made from Millers farm-made ice cream, it's hard to believe that the factory where the popular product is turned out was not always the ultra modem one of today. Like so many successful businesses of today the ice cream factory Eaton Rapids points to with pride had humble beginnings. The writer vividly remembers the horse-drawn vehicle with its one or two large wooden f-eezers ready for delivery either locally or perhaps to Springport, Dimondale or Albion. From such beginnings the business has developed from a handmade pro­ duct to one made in electrically equipped plant using milk produced on their several farms from their own herds, delivered by a fleet of 36 trucks to towns all over Michigan and some ’tn other states. The Millers have their own stores, also, and besides making electricity to light and oper­ ate their farm and plant make elec­ tric refrigerated soda fountains, ice cream cabinets, etc., build and fur­ nish practically their entire store equipment—Eaton Rapids Journal.

Application for federal participation in such an un­ dertaking was tiled by the board with the district WPA office at Grand Rapids last week and indications are that approval will be forthcoming at an early date. The cost estimates compiled by the board for thoroughly renovating the school plant call for WPA participation to the extent of $675, with the larger portion, or $950, being borne by the school district It is estimated that 1,500 hours of labor will be required for the work, giving employment to five men. The labor­ ers are to be assigned by the WPA and will likely be local men. The ex­ pense to the school district includes 300 hours employment for one man as superintendent of the work at $1.00 an hour. The balance of the estimat­ ed cost will be for equipment and ma­ terials. Some of the items included in the proposed work are the cleaning of 40,000 square feet of walls, 10,000 square feet of ceilings, 8,000 square feet of windows and 40.000 square feet of floors. Ln addition there will be the cleaning and polishing of some 11,000 square feet of chairs, tables and fixtures. There will also be 100 metal fixtures to polish, 20 cabinets to clean, and 75 radiators. The work which is contemplated is of a routine nature and ordinarily the full ex­ pense would have to be paid by the school district—Bellevue Gazette.

WHEEL CHAIR TAXIS SHAFER TO HOUSE DESK The reappearance on the House floor this week of Rep. Paul W. Shaf­ er brought an ovation from Republi­ cans and Democrats alike and a wide grin in reply from the Battle Creek congressman. Rep.

FAIR OONTRACTS NEW ATTRACTION Just for the pleasure of making some of Nashv.lle's “Old Timers” scratch their scant locks, we are tak­ ing them fur another stroll “Down Memory’s Lane." A ba lly-inked blotter and an empty ink bottle is the first and only prize offered for the first correct list of an­ swers to all questions. Who was Nashville's first black­ smith, and where was hia shop locat­ ed? -(It was not under a "Spreading Chestnut Tree.) Who was Nashville's first regular drayman, and how many children in the family? Who owned the old-time '•Boston Store," and where was it located? What Nashville barber owned a grand trotting stallion, and what was the name of the horse? Who started and owned Nashvi'le's first banking house, and where was it located? ” Who donated to the railroad com­ pany the ground on which the first station (now the Freight house) was built and the portion of the Quaker brook flats which arc still a part of the railroad property? I can ask a lot more fool questions, some of which I can’t answer myself. ' “Fike.’’ NASHVILLE YOUTH COUNCIL TO BE ORGANIZED A year ago men representing a "lo­ cal committee” solicited funds from NashviHe residents for the Barry County Youth Council. These funds were put in the one treasury for the support of youth organ'zations such as 4-H. Boy Scouts, Hi-Y and Girl Reserves. The interest and support of our people was gratifying. There was a strong indication that Nash­ ville community is anxious that its youth be provided with suitable lei­ sure time activtiy under good leader­ ship. Tuesday noon the local committee met again to determine the procedure for this year. It was decided that Nashvi le should organize Its own Youth Council, make its own solicita­ tions for the local fund, and propor­ tion the monies on a fair basis to the needs of our various local organiza­ tions. Next Monday, June 3. a com­ mittee representing the Recreation Center, the Park committee, the school. Ministerial association, and the Chamber of Commerce will meet at the school office at 3 p. m. At this time the Nashville Youth Council will be set up with plans for the usual an­ nual solicitation. The details of or­ gan’ration and method of procedure will appear in the next issue of The News. The whole-hearted support of our community is anticipated in the Interest of our local organizations for Young People. MRS.

Th® Board of Directors of the Bar­ ry County Agricultural society has recently signed a coatraet for a Major Bowes unit to appear at the Barry County Fair Tuesday and Wednesday, August 6 and 7. The management is particularly pleased to secure enter­ tainment of this type from a sponsor of -the national reputation of Major Bowes and feels that the response of Barry County Fair patrons will justi­ fy their selection of this high grade amusement feature. ■ To those who listen week after week to this radio program and know that only the cream of these acts make up the touring units, nothing further need be said. . If plans, which are being worked out at the present time, materialize, the Fair management will have an important announcement to make next week with every Fair goer and lover of good entertainment will want to read.

Prayer Could Reaffirming his fait? Have Averted in the efficacy of War. prayer, Governor L. D. Dickinson declared that the European war could have been averted by supplication for di­ vine guidance. "If these leaders (of European powers) had gotten around a table and there sincerely gone to Almighty God for judgment, we wouldn't have had this war,’’ the 81 year old execu­ tive declared in his first visit to tho University of Michigan campus since he became governor. "If we are to keep this nation out of war," he said, “we must be loyal, thorough in our thinking and must play no politics. Above all, we must understand that there is a God in heaven who has never failed us." The governor spoke at a banquet of Sigma Rho Tau, honorary engineer­ ing society, to which he received an honorary membership. # Bouncing Take two coins that look Coins. exactly alike. One is gen­ uine, the other is counter­ feit How can you tell them apart? The secret service men tell us we ahould throw them on a table. The coin that doesn’t bounce is counter­ feit The coin that bounces is the real thing. Life teste men in the same way— by their bounce! The men who do not possess real worth, quit The men of value bounce. Lincoln was defeated many times, yet always bounced back and finally bounced Into the White House. Edison failed many times in his effort to invent the incandescent lamp, yet he always bounced back and tried again—and finally he won. In the Hall of Accomplishment, you will find inscribed the names of the men who bounced. Emerson wrote, •‘What you are, thunders so loud I can’t hear what you say.” The counterfeit coin looks like the genuine, but it isn't. It won't bounce. A man may talk and look like a winner, but the way he actually lives is the test that counts. Meeting the hard knocks, defeats, and Set­ backs of life with bounce is the su­ preme test of character and worth. Be a man with bounce!—The Silver T4nfrig "Why Should We arc, in this presYou Perish?” ent day, up against a strange propaganda. They tell us that 1940 needs a differ­ ent kind of Gospel and something newer than in the old days. But ev­ erything in the Scripture contradicts this. The God of Daniel is still alive, and if you are not careful, you will erect a barrier in your own mind against your own faith and genera­ tion. It is a tragedy that hipfibrows can get out propaganda to cast aside old truths for new theories without knowing whether the new theories will work. The Gospel has always worked! There has never been an hour in his­ tory when it was preached that it did not work. The Gospel does a real work in a heart for It is the Power of ' God. All men's schemes to lead thei best life in the world amount to noth­' ing unless they take the best life ini the world, which is the life of Jesusi Christ The first thing that we need to see। is that we are lost and undone andI that we need such a Christ who died and shed His blood and then conquer­ ed sin, temptation and death, and de­ feated the devil. If you incline your ear and look to Him, you will findI that He wants you and that He has even wept for you. It will not be your seeking but His grace that will save you. After you open your heart to Christ, life will be worth living. Without a vision of that life you pei tab. But why should you perish? Why should you let sin run your life ? Why should you close your eyes, death rat­ tle in your throat, with nobody know­ ing where you're gone? Receive Jesus Christ today and go out to have the best life In the universe. “Where there is no vision the peo­ ple perish." Prov. 29:18. — Today's Gospel Truth, by Irving G. Wahlstrom. The United States gov­ ernment today is the largest mortgage bank­ er in the world. It also is rapidly be­ coming the nation's foremost land­ lord. Uncle Sam today has mortgages on one-sixth of all the farms in the na­ tion. He likewise has mortgages on onetenth of all the owner-occupied city homes. He has loaned more than $3,000.­ 000,000 to a million home owners and already has foreclosed on 171,036 properties or 16.8 per cent of the original loans. Moreover, 25 per cent of the mort­ gages now held by Uncle Sam are in default with the probability that he will soon be obliged to foreclose upon these. Uncle Sam now owns outright 99,­ 354 homes of a value of $549,441,184. That in numbers is greater than all the residential properties of Minne­ apolis. As a landlord Uncle Sam is now renting 76,911 dwellings which is more than there are in the city of At­ lanta. As Uncle Sam takes over these properties on which he holds mort­ gages, he seeks to resell them. To date his sales represent a loss of $44,460,778 or 18.7 per cent, an aver­ age of $804 per dwelling. On top of this, through FHA, Un­ cle Sam stands back of more than two billions of mortgages and al­ ready has taken a loss of $383,062 on 680 homes. Moreover, through FHA, Uncle Sam owns more than 30,000 farms up­ on which he had loaned $145,000,000. Farm and home mortgages togeth­ er amount to $24,000,000,000, or more them one-half the total national debt and Uncle Sam is committed to seeing that this debt is serviced by borrowUncle Sam, Realtor. These figures are published by the United States News, one of the most careful of all the factual publications in the land. What does all this It means that Undo Sam in his ex­ periments at home and farm “sav­ ing" actually has become the mort­ gagee. the owner and the landlord of ed." Thus has the federal govern­ ment tigtened its grip upon the homes and the lives of the people of the United States. But that isn't all. By loaning mon­ ey. too frequently on poor risks, and at rates of interest so low that banks and insurance companies and other media of private financing cannot compete, Uncle Sam has put a severe crimp on financing through private agencies. If he is to continue this policy along all lines, he eventually will drive all such private enterprise Still more. By foreclosing his mortgages, reselling the properties, renting those which he cannot sell, urging many who cannot afford it to buy or to build homes on money he. loans them at this low rate of in­ terest and eventually coming into topic discussed.

Dicpute Reported Over Bank Merger CAA Pilot Training Chairman Is Chosen Mate Officials Disagree Oa Branch CMctgo Maa To Head Sixth Corp® .System Planned By Chas. Bohn, Area Program; Tm Now Training Detroit Industrialist In Battle Creek. Controversy appeared Wednesday of last week around reported plans of Charles B. Bohn, Detroit industrialist and financier, to merge the First Na­ tional Bank and Trust Company of Grand Rapids, the Lansing National bank, the First National Bank of Port Huron, the First National Bank of Battle Creek and its Marshall affiliate and the Saginaw’ National bank in a branch banking system. On the one hand, according to re­ ports from Lansing, was an opinion from the attorney general's office holding that the Michigan banking act applies only to the establishment and operation as branches "of those insti­ tutions which retain after purchase or consolidation their state charter and state character, and not to na­ tional banking institutions retaining their federal charter and federal char­ acter within the purchase or consoli­ dation.'' Frederick Elliott, Jr., state banking commissioner, at the-same time was quoted as “vigorously opposing" the plan, contending that in passing the 1937 act the state legislature disap­ proved branch banking in Michigan, and that federal statutes require the comptroller of currency, whose appoval is necessary, to recognize this restriction. Officials of the First National Bank and Trust company declined to com­ ment Wednesday night Elliott was quoted at Lansing as saying that he had voiced his opposi­ tion to the comptroller of currency, and as declaring himself as “disap­ pointed" by the opinion of the attor­ ney general's department He further was quoted as saying that it appear­ ed to him “the comptroller Is the one to determine whether there is compli­ ance" with the Michigan law. The opinion was written by James A. Greene, first assistant attorney general, on the question put by H. J. Stoddard, president of the Lansing National bank. The Saginaw National bank former­ ly was the Saginaw State bank, the change to a national charter having been made, it is said, to make possi­ ble the proposed merger. JAS. KESTLER GETS NEW APPOINTMENT At a recent meeting of the board of directors of the Crowell-Collier Publishing Corporation, James E. Kestler of Indianapolis, Ind., former collector locally for the P. F. Collier & Son Corp., and nephew of Mrs. Tina Heckathorn, was appointed gen­ eral manager of the Western Mich­ igan branch office at Grand Rapids, taking over his new duties June 2. He had served as assistant manager of the Indiana territory with head­ quarters in Indianapolis since July, 1939, and had been employed by Col­ liers since 1936. BEV. FR. JORDAN TRANSFERRED FROM ADRIAN TO DETROIT Rev. Father P. J. Jordan, who or­ ganized the parish at Charlotte and three years later was transferred to Hastings, serving St Cyril Catholic church here also, has been transfer­ red from St. Mary's church, Adrian, which he had seved almost 11 years, to the Church of the Epiphany, De­ troit This was one of 70 changes in that diocese, with mostly assistants affected. He succeeds Rev. Fr. Leo Chapman, who was one of three pas­ tors in charge of major Michigan parishes to die during the last year. 700 Sheep Autopsies. Important causes of deaths in sheep and lambs offer Michigan flockmas­ ters some pointers in caring for their flocks. In a study of 700 autopsies, says L B. Sholl of the Michigan State college, the most numerous death cause was food intoxication and intoxications plus parasitism. Of the 700 this was the cause of 174 cases or approximately 25 per cent Para­ sitism and parasitism plus intoxica­ tion caused 132 deaths or about 19 per cent Pregnancy disease accounted for 52 cases or 7 per cent Conclu­ sion, says Sholl, is that feeding prob­ lems constitute the greatet single fac­ tor in sheep raising In Michigan, with parastism in second place. Ask Highway Rerouting. In order that parallel parking may not be required the Hastings city council has authorizetTthe mayor, city attorney and city <4erk to confer with authorities of the Michigan state highway department to ask if high­ ways M-37 and M-79 which run through the main street may be re­ routed. Such action lx expected to •ave expense to the city of cutting down curbs in the downtown area so that passengers might al'ght on the sidewalk and benefit shoppers and motorists who will have more room in which to pork their cars. Route M-43 which formerly went through the main business section was re-routed some ti'-’^e ago. Maj.

Chicago Daily News publisher and genera! chairman of the civilian program, announced the appointment and stressed the fact that there will be the utmost cooper* ation between the civilian directort and officials of the civil aeronautics authority and the army air corps in development of the program aimed at training 45,000 new pilots by July 1, 1941. Battle Creek has 10 civilian fliers in training at Kellogg airport now under CAA direction. They have been in training about a month and by the end of this week all are ex­ pected to have soloed. Originally, Col. Knox said, the plan of patriotic civilians interested in building up a reserve iff pilots for the nation's defense system contemplated training 10,000 civilian fliers in “avia­ ton Plattsburg" camps this summer. Now, however, his office said, the original program has been merged with the expanded program announc­ ed in Washington by Chairman Rob­ ert H. Hinckley of the civil aeronaut­ ics authority—a plan for training 15,000 this summer, beginning June 15; another 15,000 beginning Septem­ ber 15, and a third 15,000 next spring, a total of 45,000 by July 1. 1941.

JOHN ANDREWS WED 63 YEARS AGO TODAY DAILY VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL AT EVANGELICAL CHURCH Sixty-fire years ago today Ellen Butterfield, who was teaching the Barryville school, and John Andrews, working for Gus Phillips of Nash­ ville by whom he was employed for six years, were married at her paren­ tal home south of Charlotte, her sis­ ters and brothers being present for the ceremony performed by Rev. Mr. Elmer of Olivet It was Sunday, so the wedding did not interfere with their work. , In contrast to the present day rap­ id traveling about with a car, the bride of June 13, 1875, when her week's teaching had been completed, walked from Barryville to Sherman's Corners to her aster's home, where! Mr. Andrews joined her. When they reached Charlotte they looked up his sister, now Mary Rugh. who was em­ ployed there. They hud their dinner there and also had their pictures tak­ en in Charlotte. She resumed her teach’ng Monday, and Mr. Andrews his work for Mr. Phillips. , Mr. Andrews bought 40 acres in Kalamo and their first home was a log house with the rough bark on the inside. But they made a real home of it and of the succeeding dwelling places, and now in their comfortable Cleveland street home today they can look back over 65 years of real companionship and quiet enjoyment. They capably reared four children, Mrs. S. E. Powers and Harley Andews of Nashville. Mrs Harry Hol­ man of Bellevue, and Dale Andrews of Battle Creek, whom they enjoy, and the family circle has widened to in­ clude grandchildren and great-grand­ children, visits from all of whom are enjoyed by Mr. and Mrs. Andrews, who also highly value their neighbors and friends. Not as "young" as they were 65 years ago. physically. Mr. and Mrs. Andrews are still young in their minds and are able to carry on together in their own home, and keep up their outside contacts in a quiet way. Today their children are "drop­ ping" in on them informally, but not together, for oongratulatory chats, but not for a celebration which would be too much of a physical strain for the bride and groom of 65 years ago. The lack of leadership for a Com­ munity Vacation JJible school thia year gave rise to the Bible school jrithin the Evangelical church. At present there are over 80 regiztations of all ages from beginners to older intemediates. Mias Pauline Douse is acting superintendent of the school. The Misses Mildred Douse, Margaret Olson and Virginia Laurent are as­ sisting in the primary group. Mrs. Harry Laurent is teaching the junior boys group. Mrs. W. C. Bassett fa teaching the junior girls group. Rev. W. C. Bassett is working with the in­ termediates. Besides the study perods and worship hours, there is hand­ work and interest groups which will make a fine display for the demon­ stration night which will be held at the close of school, Sunday even­ ing. June 23. On Friday of this week the entire group will have their pic­ tures taken. They may be purchased at 5c each by those des.ring pictures. Any boy or girl of the community is Invited to join in the remaining days of the Daily Vacation Bible school at the Evangelical church. BRAND NEW FEATURE FOE BARRY COUNTY FAJB A contract has just been signed with the Sun Booking Agency for the appearance of Baker Bros. Rodeo, Wild West show and circus, at the Barry County Fair, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, August 8, 9 and 10. Some time ago J. W. Todd of the Gus Sun Book ng Agency met with the full Fair Board and was told by the members that something out­ standing must be presented to the Fair patrons this year, and that his chances to sell entertainment to them in 1944 and thereafter depended upon the ultimate reception by the public of this year's program. Mr. Todd told the Board members that in that case he had an attraction which he would bend every effort to obtain for tem. He said that while he had good Revues and other fine at­ tractions he could absolutely guaran­ tee satisfaction with Baker Bros., who do not usually play in these smal­ ler communities. After much checking of schedule it was found that one week was open and the Board was notified that Bak­ er Bros, would make the long move from middle Ohio to Hastings, so it is that our Fair is to have this splen­ did amusement attraction. Wonderful horses and riding, Wild West features, acrobatic acts and some of the finest circus acts obtain­ able. all blended together to make up an entertainment which will please everyone.

THURSDAY, JUNE 20,1940 for avoiding the discuaaicn of them. ‘ This is no time to have our inten­ tions misunderstood by the neighbors. That is a sure recipe for trouble. We ■ay that the Kaiser misjudged when he got into the last war. Now there is a fatalistic feeling which says that Hitler is sadly misjudging us. If our Intentions are misjudged, there is only one reason. It's because we don’t have any Intentions. And the obvious reason for that is lack of knowledge as to the real situation. Hush-hush talk wont solve that Beyond that is a further reason. Democracies don’t function like dicta­ torships. They have to have consid­ erable harmony of thought and rea­ son to act on matters of war. Lack of harmony is a hole in their armor. Thus one kind of unpreparedness in a democracy is lack of ability to get together and understand each other’s views. There has been a good deal of that kind of unpreparedness in the last few years. Team-work has been as badly lacking as cannons, airplanes, tanks and ships. If there is a present lesson in it to the United States it is this: That no democracy can afford to be torn apart by partisan and rough dealing in its own affairs. Having reached this stage of world affairs, It may be idle to quibble over how we got there. But it is obvious that we should not continue past mistakes.

A vacuum jug will keep food either hot or cold for hours. If the family has such a jug, prepare soup, stew, chili or other foods at home and serve hot at the picnic. If not, take a* covered caaoeroe of scalloped potatoes, to­ matoes, or mixed vegetables that will hold its heat for an hour or so. The fireplaces in local, state, and national parks make it easy to cook at the picnic grounds. One can pre­ pare meat and vegetables at home, and then reheat them over the p cnic fire. Canned foods can be heated quickly at the picnic or steaks or hamburgers can be broiled. Raw vegetables as a relish or salad should be included in the picnic menu. If greens arc crisped in the refriger­ ator they will stay quite fresh wrap­ ped in waxed paper. Pack carrots or cucumber sticks, celery, radishes, or green onions Into a covered glass jar. For the beverage, plan to have milk for the children at least If there is no way to keep the bottles cold, the milk will keep best in a vacuum bottle. Fruit is ideal for the picnic dessert.

THURSDAY, JUNE 27, 1940 The typograhical error is a slippery thing and sly. You can hunt till you are dizzy, but it somehow will get by. Till the forms are off the presses it is strange how still it keeps; It shrinks down in a comer and it never stirs or peeps. The typographical error, too small for human eyes, Till the ink is on the paper, when it grows to mountain size. '' The remainder of the issue may be clean as clean can be, Buy that typographical error is the only thing you see.—Selected. "Finish every day and be done with it You have done what you could. Of course some blunders and absurdi­ ties crept in. Forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be en­ cumbered with your old nonsense. This day is all that is good and fair. It is too dear, with its hopes and in­ vitations, to waste a moment on the yesterdays.”—Ralph Waldo Emerson. Encouragement Thousands of young To Youth. men and women are being graduated dur­ ing June from the colleges and uni­ versities of the country. A great number of them already are finding place, in the professions, in Business and Industry, to begin their real struggle with life . Others have not been so fortunate. They are yet to find jobs. It is to be hoped that those who fall in this category will not give too much attention to the pessimistic cry heard through many years of the depression, that no longer is there any opportunity for ambitious Youth, that the cards are stacked against them. Dr. A. H. Edgerton, Director of Vo­ cational Guidance at the University of Wisconsin, doesn't think this is true. He points to findings of a na­ tional survey to show that in 1939 more than 251,000 “good job." went begging because satisfactory appli­ cants did not present themsclvA. This rather puts the challenge up to the young people themselves. The survey revealed that the jobs were not filled because of lack of training on the part of the young applicants and it was not training that could be obtained only by first getting the job. Dr. Edgerton referred particularly to "courtesy courage and cooperation," all summed in the word “character.” Employers more than ever are look­ ing for young men and women who not only can fill the immediate job but who give indications that they are determined to work hard, keep on studying and fit themselves for pro­ motion. Dr. Edgerton’s words should not only encourage Youth in the know­ ledge that plenty of jobs are open for the right kind of applicants but they should give incentive to the right at­ titude of mind in seeking a job.— Grand Rapids Her ald. And What Now? The stupendous tragedy of France leaves the people of the United States in wonder and in fear. As to the immediate result, part is plain and part is obscure. It is plain that France is out of the war. Some remnants of the French fighting for­ ces may continue to fight in Africa or the Near East; but France is no longer an organized belligerent na­ tion. The Allied cause seems to have collapsed Ln the eastern Mediterran­ ean. for Turkey apparently is lost as as active ally and there are no signs that any of ihe Balkan countries will enter the war on the side of the AlIt is also perfectly clear that the Germans will attack England as soon bs the assault can be organized, and make a desperate effort to destroy her as they have destroyed France. The German chance of success in that effort depends largely on what becomes of the French navy and that is in doubt at this hour. Would France surrender It intact under country and its people? Or would they turn it over to the British, or strength. The United States must be master of the air in the entire Western Hemispnere.2. Increase the navy to overwhelming strength, and build it up with all possible speed. Build as many new Shipyards as can be used, and work them 24 hours a day. The new navy bill providing for a four billion dollar program, which Congress will soon pass, is none too big. For — note well—if Germany wins this war she will have all the shipyards of Europe at her disposal, and she probably will be able to build faster than we can. Sea power Is our prime defense. It is going to be as vital to us as it has been to England tor the last three centuries. It is not enough that our navy be strong, or even very strong. The United States must be master of 3.

Eight blocks of the proposed paving is in the fourth ward. —Mrs. Emellne Efcery, 80, Battle Creek, daughter of Battie Creek's first newspaper publisher, Walter Waters Woolnough, and herself a member of the editorial staffs of the Daily Moon and Moon-Journal for more than 25 years, died in her home. She had been Ill nine months. Mrs. Egery fell on Sept. 15, 1039, in her home and fractured her hip. She was confined in bed in Leila hospital for two weeks and then taken home, be­ ing confined to her bed since that time. Bom Feb. 14, 1860, in BatUe Creek, she had lived there all her life. She learned the newspaper business from her father, for worn she worked for many years. She was a reporter and society editor for both the Daily Moon and Moon-Journal until her re­ tirement about 20 years ago. Mrs. Egery had been a member of the Wo­ men's league. Daughters bf the Am­ erican Revolution, and of the First Congregational church and the Ply­ mouth Guild of that church. Her fath­ er started the Western Citizen, Battle Creeks' first newspaper, in 1845. He also was editor and publisher of the Michigan Tribune, the Battle Creek Journal, and political editor of the Daily Moon. He was at various times a state legislator, an aiderman and a member of the board of education. It was in his office, in 1854. that steps were taken for organization of the Michigan Republican party. The par­ ty was finally formed under the Oaks in Jackson on July 6 of the same year, with Mr. Woolnough as one of 60 delegates. to be realities, and material laws appear to govern men. These things, be­ ing opposed to the nature of God. are untrue, and can seem to affect and govern mortals only so long as the mesmeric belief that man lives in matter is accepted as true. The clear teaching of Christian Sci­ ence that man, being the image and likeness of God, is spiritual, and that material existence is but the counter­ feit of true spiritual being, enables one to see the falsity of error’s claims to intelligence. Once It Is ad­ mitted that they are false, their pro­ pagan da becomes ineffective. A child may believe that two and two is six, and this belief, with its consequent mistakes, may last for some time; but once the truth that two and two is four is recognized, he no longer be­ lieves the misstatement, however often it may be repeated. In her "Miscellaneous Writings” Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, has written (p. 135), "Our watchwords are Truth and Love.-and if we abide in these, they will abound in us, and we shall be one in heart,—one in mo­ tive, purpose, pursuit;" and she adds. "Sending forth currents of Truth, God’s methods and means of healing, and so spreading the gospel of Love, is in itself an eternity of joy that out­ weighs an hour." We are all, each moment, thinking some kind of thoughts. Should we not, then, re­ solve to entertain only those thoughts which help to bring healing to the world? This indeed provides a true sense of joy, for no happiness can equal that which comes to the indi­ vidual who humbly and honestly lets spiritual truth govern his thinking. "The spUritual power of a scientfic right thought, without a direct effort, an audible or even a mental argu­ ment. has oftentimes healed inveter­ ate diseases." So writes Mrs. Eddy on page 9 of "Rudimental Divine Sci­ ence." All may well ponder this statement, and resolve to keep their thinking pure, and not to let it be de­ flected by the* belief that hatred, fear, sickness, misfortune, or misery has power to hold God's children in bond­ age. Every lie of the carnal mind, whether spoken or latent, finds an an­ tidote in Truth; and the specific truth needed to refute it appears as the individual listens for the voice of God declaring His own majesty, omnipo­ tence and omnipresence. Then the claims of error and falsehood to in­ fluence men are seen as powerless, and, in the measure that this is un­ derstood, are rendered ineffective. The prophet Jeremiah represents God as saying (Jeremiah 23:23, 24): “Am I at God at hand, saith the Lord, and not a God afar off? ... Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the Lord."— Christian Science Monitor. NASHVILLE MARKETS Following are nnees «n markets on Wednesday. June 26, at the hour The NeWd goes to pr*ss.

Formation of a Michigan non-pro­ fit corporation to be known as the American Citizens' Defense league •'to unmask thfifth column in Am­ erica" was announced Sunday by State Senator Joseph A.. Baldwin, who is serving as temporary chair­ man. The league's aim will be to co-o’>dlnate the efforts of patriotic, fra­ ternal and service club groups to up­ root un-American organizations and to discourage vigilantes from taking the law in their own hands. Sen. Baldwin, a World wi- veteran and co-athor of the Baldwin-Dunckel teachers* oath legislation, said. Other temporary officers of the or­ ganization are: Vice chairman, Ir­ vine Unger, Detroit; secretary, Pro­ secutor Charles L. Wilson- of Oak­ land county, Pontiac; treasurer, Dr. Stewart McArthur. Mt. Pleasant. Unger and Dr. McArthur are high Michigan officials of fraternal orders. The new group’s formation is the result of three recent meetings of representatives of numerous Mich­ igan organizations, seeking to ar­ range a concerted drive on bund. Communist and other subversive groups. Thirty key citizens attend­ ed the last meeting in Lansing Fri­ day evening. Non-sectarian. non-racial and non­ partisan In character, the league wjl’ ask only of its members that they be citizens of the United States and be willing to take the oath of alleg­ iance to the state and nation. Mr. Ba'dwin said. There will be no ad­ mission fee, dues, compensation, nor personal expense money for the lea­ gue's officers. Voluntary contribu­ tions a-e expected to finance print­ ing. postage stenographic and gen­ eral expenses. Mr. Baldwin said the temporary officers will meet in Lansing Sunday. June 30, to perfect plans for a gen­ eral meeting at which a constitution and by-laws will be adopted.

The General Assembly was the quadrennial conference of the church and was world wide in its scope. The membership was composed of the general officers and heads of depart­ ments. 586 delegates (of whom half were lay and half ministerial) and representatives from the 12 foreign missionary fields in which the church Is working. Rev. Kauffman was seated as an elected delegate from the Michigan District Mrs. Kauffman was seated with the foreign missionary delega­ tion as the representative for Pales­ tine and Syria . Mr. Kauffman was honored by being elected as chairman of the General Assembly committee of Foreign Missions. The sessions of the General Assem­ bly were held Ln the new beautiful municipal auditorium. This was giv­ en for the use of the conference free of charge. Welcome addresses were given the gathering by the mayor of the city, by the convention secretary of the Chamber of Commerce and by the president of the ministerial asso­ ciation of the city. The delegates and visitors felt the sincerity of the wel­ come and the hospitality of the peo­ ple of the great Southland through­ out their stay. Nearly 150 resolutions were pre­ sented for consideration. These re­ lated to the governmental or admin­ istrative phases of the church. Not one of them suggested a change of doctrinal statement nor any alte-ation Ln the •’special rules.’’ The election of general officers was a high point of interest as always. The two Genera] Superintendents. Dr. R. T. Williams and Dr. J. B. Chapman were re-elected by a very large vote on the first ballot Dr. Orval J. Neas? of Kansas City, Mo., a nephew of Mr. 'and Mrs. Chas. Nease of Nashville, was elected on the third ballot to the highest office in the church. On the fourth ballot for Gen. Supt, Dr. H. V. Miller, dean of theology in North­ west Nazarene college at Nampa. Idaho, was elected. Both Dr. Nease and Dr. Miller are close friends of Rev. and Mrs. Kauffman. Dr. J. W. Goodwin, who has served for 25 years as a Gen Supt, had reached the age of .retirement and was made Gen. Supt Emeritus. The registration of delegates and visitors numbered 8,075. Thesf were not all present at one time, but it is estimated that abou 5,200 persons were present at the opening service on Sunday morning when the sacra­ ment of the holy communion was cele­ brated. After an impressive sermon by Dr. J. W. Goodwin 150 ministers, w’ho had been seated on the platform, partook of the bread and wine and. then, in an orderly and efficient maner served that immense congregation. The inspiration and blessing of that Four splendid foreign missionary services were held. About 50 mis­ sionaries on furlough and missionar­ ies under appointment and native dressed in colorful costumes of for* elgn countries. Soul stirring- addres­ ses characterized by heroic adventure and by glorious accomplishment were the results of sacrifice at home and the heroism abroad. It was not a great stretch of the imagination to picture to one’s self the "great multi­ tude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues,’’ which will stand before the throne clothed with white robes and with victor s palms in their hands. The reports indicated remarkable growth tn the membership during tbe post four years. The percentage gain wa* 24 per cent. The world mem­ bership is now 172,144. This is a gain of 100 per cent in a period of ten years. The Church of the Nazarene is one of the most rapidly growing churches in the U. S. Great gains have been made in every department of the church—foreign missions, home missions Sunday schools, young peo­ ple’s society, publishing house, col­ leges, church buildings, etc. The per capita giving was 330.12, which is the highest of all churches in America having over 100,000 member* The Nazarene people are sacrificial in their giving. Although tithing of in­ come is not compulsory, it is very widely practiced. Though world conditions are great­ ly disturbed, it was the general feel­ ing of the leaders that opportunity and challenge in an unprecedented degree face the Church of the Naza­ rene. All went forth from that Gen­ eral Assembly with a deeper determi­ nation to glorify God and to be a greater blessing to the day and gen­ eration in which we live. RICHARDSON SEYS HE SAW OTHER CAR IN TIME TO STOP The Ionia county coroner’s jury, which Investigated the death of Mrs. Adelia Bassett. 60. of Odessa several weeks ago in an automobile accident on the Ionia-Barry county line, brought in an open verdict Friday af­ ternoon at Lake Odessa following sur­ prising testimony that the driver of Mrs. Bassett's car had seen the ap­ proach of the second car in time to stop. The testimony came from Mrs. Rawsett's son, Clarence Richardson, 19, who was driving the car in which Mrs. Bassett was killed. Richardson, placed on the witness stand by his at­ torney, was quoted as saying he had seen the car of Keith Kittinger. 21, of jark^nn as it approached the inter­ section but Richardson is said to have testified that he ’-thought he could beat him across the intersection.’’ The jury returned with a verdict that Mrs. Bassett met her death in an accident of the Kittinger and Rich­ ardson cars. The youth and his stepfather. Wil­ liam Bassett, 62, Odessa farmer, were also hurt in the crash and the in­ quest had been delayed until they could recover and appear.—Lake Odessa Wave Times. DR.

I assure you it was written in a spirit of ennui (too muchee ’.ainee allee tlmee), and fun, (and certainly not for publication). Someone once said "Laugh and the world laughs with you; weep and you weep alone.’ Old Antique. Chas. H- Raymond, Aufwiedersehn. I Dunno. Just what to do in a time like this, When my garden sass is all awash. But to sit and cuss the weather man; Can’t hoe com 'n' taters, beans ‘n’ squash. But say, a thought just hit my dome, Why didn't I think of it before. Gosh, Hl unload my bile on someone I know Some excerpts from that musty book of josh. There's a newsy femme I sort of know And it keeps her busy, to study and think, And with the devil plan some scheme To raise the wind with printer's ink. Should I be censured for talk like this. I’d beg her pardon, don’t you see, With all respect to the feminine clan. If I wasn't a right smart older’fi she.

Now, my good friend, will you excuse This flow of rank verbosity; Twas done with the best of good in­ tent. And without animosity. To prove how false was that old saw That a little nonsense now and then Was only relished by that favored few— Those Lords of Creation called men. Once on a time a chap remarked, I never could learn just when. It must have oozed from a giant brain "That a little nonsense now and then” Would act in a beneficial way. Of course he never had heard of vita­ mins then From that Neanderthal chap on down To that bunch of ornery biped critters called men. Twas a fool remark ’n' I’ve always said It was misleading and rank unfair, But 'twas uttered long long before That Woman's was loosed on the air By Elizabeth Cady Stanton. Francis Willarr’, And a Mrs. Parkhurst across the sea. And another who tooted it far and wide. Related to me, he. he, that unquench­ able Susan B. I’ve pondered long o’er this sage re­ mark And it somenow seems to me That this chap was stumbling 'round In a mist of dark obscurity. Or else "he surely would have known What he failed to discern, poor m?n. That any femme's funnybone stacks up With any smart guy of the Homo clan. But one thing sure has puzzled me. The incentive that caused this chap— He Bure was weak on the upper floor To exude this saw that’s on the map. We’ll never know what caused him To make the remark that’s herein stated; If it was made in a fit of spite, Or if it was premeditated. Was It made in a spirit of rancor, Or from a lack of good horse sense, Or from deep and studied thought, To quote a legal phrase, in Malice Prepense? I’ve wondered if he did it on his own, Of if he was a tool. The fact remains, he proved he was A plain dam phool. My friend. I promise you that never again Will I strain by train for a little laugh. I've dum nigh ruined a bran new pen Tryin’ to write t funnygraph. I’ll grieve me sore if I should fall, To plainly state the facts to you, But I’be done my darnedest, "Believe you me;” It sure will have to do. —Old Antique. The Methodtet Chare*.

"God" will be the subject of the Lesson-Sermon in oil Christian Sci­ ence churches throughout the world on Sunday, July 7. The Golden Text (Rev. 7:12) is: "Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, .and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen.” Among the Bible citations is this passage (Ps. 24:3-4): "Who shall as­ cend into the hill ot the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceit­ fully.” 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. 4): "Simply asking that we may love God win never make us love Him; but the longing to be better and holier, ex­ pressed in daily watchfulness and in striving to assimilate more of the di­ vine character, will mould and fash­ ion us anew, until we awake in His likeness.” MSple Leaf Grange.

Doctor Townsend Says NEVER in our history, not even during the disastrous de­ pression years, Deeded as in the critical days to come. True de­ mocracy is effec­ tive only when the electorate is informed on national and international affairs. Confusion in the minds of the peo­ ple may cause confusion among our representatives in Washington. They must be able to act decisively according to the wishes of the citizens. ■** • ” Our national problems, which have not been solved, must not be overshadowed by international con­ ditions, and we should be able to cope with both situations equally well. With this double task ahead it behooves each citizen to be in­ formed on the serious problems of government and to commuaicata often with his representatives in Washington. E.

It will be a o’can campaign, based on im­ portant public issues." These words from G. Donald Ken­ nedy, business manager of the state highway department and deputy highway commissioner, give a c'ue to the policy which Murray D. VanWag­ oner will pursue If he wins the Demo­ cratic nomination for governor. As Mr. Kennedy is campaign man­ ager for VanWagoner the refer;nee • to Michigan's ocotgenaxian executive, nationally known for his religious ut­ terances and condemnation of “high life," may be considered significant. It could be an intimation that the VanWagoner forties anticipate the Re­ publican nomination of Dickinson for governor. Also within the range of probability is an interpretation that VanWagoner will avoid the thin ice of a personal, frontal attack on Mr. Dickinson lest it be resented by tem­ perance-loving, chut ch-going citizens. From an interview with the Demo­ cratic vote-getter, however, we did get a defiite impression that VanWag­ oner would have something to say about "boss control" in the Republi­ can party. That would be meant for the Grand Rapids leader, Frank Mc­ Kay. whose ^selection as Republican national commiteeman from Michigan has placed him out in the open, either for praise or condemnation. Survey Of Issues." With exacting care, Meass. Van­ Wagoner anti Kennedy have been making a survey of 1940 issues, months in advance of their leader's announcement of candidacy. In the first phase of the campaign, VanWagoner and Kennedy traveled throughout the state to ascertain the view of local politicos. Thus, possi­ ble issues have been determined on the basis of county i ecommendations. ‘‘A primary contest would be a healthy thing for the Democratic par­ ty this spring," said Mr. Kennedy. “It would concentrate attention on the candidates. And it might keep Dem­ ocrats from going over the party fence 'to participate in the Republi­ cans* primary.” National Defense. Just as VanWagoner has capita ized on the dollys-and-cents benefit to Michigan in having a Democratic­ highway commissioner at Lansing while a Democratic president was at Washington, so he is expected to stress the value of a Democratic gov­ ernor during these days of national defense preparations. "Our need in handling national de­ fense is to be in sympathy with the national administration in order that Michigan may receive full advantage of actions taken by a strong federal government," said Kennedy. “It is pathetic what we have not done in other fields—such us agricul­ ture. National-state activity with regard to social welfare, resettle­ ment. rehabilitation work, civilian conservation camps and national parks also lie within the possibility of greater benefits to Michigan. “In the field of national defense, the state program shou'd be one of backing up the federal defense pro­ gram with regard to industrial production and use of the national State Finances. In the VanWagoner declaration of candidacy axe found some other “st-aws in the wind" as to his con­ ception of issues for the fall cam“Crippled state finances and mud­ dled state purchasing must be among the first evils tackled by the next governor of Michigan," he said, re­ ferring to a state deficit of >31,500,000. * Warning that the national defense p ogram wou'd "necessarily” impose additional federal taxes, the highway commissioner declared: “We must in-' itiate in Michigan a wise and thrifty state government . Home-spun econ­ omy and rigid business management must prevail.” Rather than pre-suppo e what the public is thinking, the VanWagoner formula is to “go directly to them (the people) for thrir op4n*ons: g’v»nr them a chance to be heard—and NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, JULY 11, IMO Testimonial Dinner For Rev.

He had been confined to his bed for two weeks with a trained nurse, Mrs. Wash, in charge, and had been un­ conscious since Friday. His demise was due to his advanced years. Mr. Zuschnltt had a rema kable business career, coming here as a boy for employment and remaining in the same establishment through the owne ship changes and almost to the day of his death.

Lengthen Your The successful man Stride. lengthens his stride when he discovers that the signpost has deceived him: the failure looks for a place to sit down. Elison didn't sit down and give up when his first efforts to. find an effec­ tive filament for the carbon incandes­ cent lamp met with failure. He leng­ thened his stride! He sent men to China, Japan, South America, Asia, Jamaica, Celyon and Burma search of fibres and grasses to tested in his laboratory. Burbank, the plant wizard, is an­ other man who didn't quit when stacles blocked his way. At one time he personally conducted 6,000 experi­ ments before he found the solution. George Westinghouse was treated as a mild lunatic by most railroad executives: "Stopping a train by wind! The man’t crazy!” Yet, he persevered and finally sold the air­ brake idea! James Watt built model after mod­ el of his steam engine before he got one that worked efficiently. Call the roll of all the*builders and you will find that they were men who lengthened their strides! Every man gets on the wrong road at times. He comes upon hills, rough going and dangerous detours. What he does when he meets these obsta­ cles determines his destiny. The world never hears from those who look for a place to sit down. Lengthen your stride!—The Silver Lining. "In the beginning God cre­ ated the heaven and the earth."—Genesis 1:1. Here the foundation is laid clear for the origin of the universe. In the be­ ginning—God. No effort is made to prove the existence of the Divine Be­ ing. God created—the word here used means to cause that to-exist which be­ fore had no existence. In this sense it can property be used only with res­ pect to God as the creator. All of men's theories about the beginning that leave God out will come to naught. God began the earthly pro­ gram and God will close IL How much more reasonable is the Bible account of creation than any other. "And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.” Genesis 2:7. A Japanese preacher in speaking to a group of his countrymen said: "To­ day I attended a surgical clinic and MW the foreign teacher preparing to remove a cataract from the eye of an old woman. I wondered thus to myfcelf, ‘Suppose now we Christians are mistaken, and that Instead of God there are many Gods, and that the one that made the American did not consult the one that made the Japa­ nese, and as a result there is a dif­ ference in the minute anatomy of the eyes, and so this operation proves a failure'.’* But no such thoughts seemed to disturb the doctor. He cut into the eye in confidence, took out the catar­ act, and the patient could see. Truly there is but one God. the Creator of Creator. : Only a fool can say in his heart,• ,'There is no God." God has chosen» to reveal Himself in a very real way.• In a very personal way, to us throughi our having faith in His Son, thes Lord Jesus Christ, who was with God1 in the beginning and who is the ■very' essence of God. God has broughtt Himself within reach of all by His’ Son. In the last book of the Bible,. God in Christ says, "I am the Alpha1 and Omega, the beginning and the» ending." Rev. 1:8.—Today's Gospel1 Truth by Irving G. Wahlstrom. off The nomination Wendell Willkle is themost momentous eventt in American politics since the nomi-• nation of Abraham Lincoln. It is’ momentous for three outstanding rea-• The People’s Triumph. 1. It insures a continuation of ai sound and realistic foreign policy,. and makes probable a quicker and1 better arming of America. 2. It is a dazzling victory of public: opinion over narrow and selfish parti­ sanship. 3. It saves the Republican party from certain defeat, and perhaps from dissolution. No party ever headed for disaster more clearly than the Republican party did in the early stages of the convention. The leading candidates and the platform makers were simply playing the old game in the old way. As to the awful problem of the hour, the machinists were only half-con­ scious. But democracy vindicated itself again, The people were out far ahead of the politicians. They knew what it was all about, and they said so in a deluge of telegrams, letters, tele­ phone calls, editorials, resolutions. Those appeals soon began to weaken the ground on which the macninists stood. It crumbled fast, and in a few hours of balloting it was swept away. The results are clear and easily If Taft or Dewey had been nomi­ nated, with the kind of a platform they would have run on, Roosevelt almost certainly would have run and would have carried every state except maybe Vermont Hundreds of thous­ ands of his former bitter opponents would have voted for him. Now Willkie is almost certain to be elected if Roosevelt does not run, and stands a very good chance even if he does. For that reason it is quite possible that Roosevelt will not run—for on the one hand he is not bitterly hostile to Willkie, and on the other hand he may fear the risk of defeat The Republican party is saved from disaster. It has a new birth and will continue to live, either as the ruling party or as a strong opposition—un­ der a new leadership that is not liv­ ing in the nineties. Above all, the nation has a chance to choose a leader who is young, strong, clean, of brilliant ability, a popular favorite, anu alive to the one great problem that submerges all oth- Must Fight It was 164 years ago toAgain. day that the members of the Continental Con­ gress took their individual lives in their hands to declare the independ­ ence of Colonies, to sever their bond­ age to the English Crown, to make preparation for the setting up of a new Nation on the face of the earth. Only a few times in that 164 years has the independence of the United States been threatened. Today it is. Today the independence of the United States is threatened by a far more ruthless foe than ever was King George HI who, after all, was only a weakling who had little idea of what he was about. The enemy of today is a man in full vigor mentally and phy­ sically, a man obsessed with an over­ whelming ambition to conquer and to dominate the world. Already he has conquered the greater share of Europe. His hands reach out across the Atlantic seeking domination also of the Western Hemisphere. Today the free and independent United States must fight its great battle all over again. Perhaps, and all of us hope, The first verse in the Bible con­ it may not be necessary to shed blood tains the essence of true philiaophy. in the battle but if we are not forced ced to fight that we may not suffer economic strangulation and, moreover, that our free form of government, the institu­ tions which our forefather!; visioned, may not be submerged under the great wave of totalitarianism which seems to be sweeping the earth. The people of the Colonies, follow­ ing their Declaration of Independ­ ence, suffered the greatest of hardships, made the greatest of sacrifices that they might attain their ends. Perhaps, indeed almost certainly, we of this generation 164 years later may be forced to make sacrifices of which today we. little dream. We must deny ourselves perhaps many of the luxur­ ies and the comforts in order that we may provide the funds with which to make our land impregnable against the assault of a foreign foe. We may be forced to sacrifice much in order that we may maintain not only our freedom but our social order, our free form of government, that we may maintain our economic security, our right to trade with the Nations of the world and on terms which will not be destructive of our own growth and prosperity. Fourth of July in this year, 1940, is perhaps the most momentous this Nation has known since that Fourth of July, 1776. The little group of peopie who inhabited the Atlantic sea­ board 164 years ago were willing and did give freely of their substance and of their lives that a free people in an independent Nation might be estabUshed. Today the 130,000,000 people of a great and powerful Nation must be prepared to'give as freely as did the 3,000,000 of 164 years ago in or­ der that what the 3,000,000 people fought for and won may be preserved for the 130,000,000 and the millions more yet unborn. Are we ready for the fight ?—Grand Rapids Herald. Infinite Resources. Many people have long held to the belief that their resources depend entirely upon their early training, op­ portunity, or environment, Some feel that their business, or profes­ sion, or invested capital, forms the oftly means upon which they can rely for meeting their human needs. Whilst some may be satisfied with their present opportunities for pro­ gress, there are many who long to en­ large them who greatly desire to ex­ press more intelligence, wisdom and ~~J dominion over the false belief of material limitation. Here Christian Science is able give practical proof of spiritual man’e boundless capacities and never- ceas­ ing ability to express every quality of omnipotent, ever-present Mind. Since there are no limits to God's all-power, there are no limits to man, as His image and likeness. With wondrous assurances of our natural ability to express the infinite resources of God, divine Mind. Christion Science dispels the illusion that each individual’s capabilities are lim­ ited, and therefore confined to but a narrow sphere of activity. Intelli­ gence, wisdom, foresight, nd oppor­ tunity do not depend upon anything material, whether it be heredity, edu­ cation, or environment They are spiritual and the realization of them depends upon the individual’s under­ standing of God as the divine Father­ Mother, and of man’s inseparable one­ ness with the divine source of all good. The mist of unbelief or ignorance may hide from us our God-given abil­ ity to reflect omnipotent Mind; or. leaning on a false belief that we can accomplish something apart from God, we may encounter difficulty and failure, but, turning to Him, we can at once, here and now, find those In­ finite resources of good which are nev­ er exhausted, and which never fluc­ tuate. We have only to shut out the erroneous belief in a selfhood apart from God, good, and to dwell with confidence and certainty upon the reality of man’s spiritual, eternal na­ ture as the child of God, in order to draw upon them. Let us take as an example David, the youngest of the sons of Jesse, who spent his time keeping his fath­ er's sheep and who, as it was reveal­ ed by God to the prophet Samuel, was to be the future king over Israel. Evidently it was not because of Da­ vid's learning, but because of his na­ tural expression of Godlike qualit'es, such as moral courage, receptivity to good, and trust in God, that we was to be led to undertake a great work. Yet those true qualities of thought must have had outward expresssion even then, for we are told that David was "of a beautiful countennce;" and from the moment that “the Spirit of the Lord came upon David" (I Sam­ uel 16:12, 18), great opportunities , awaited him. Each one who consecrates his thoughts and actions to the service of . God and mar, finds his capacities for ; good wondrously enlarged.

C Huge Pork Purchases. Purchase of 24,510,000 pounds on June 29 brought total purchases of lard and pork products for domestic relief distribution to approx>mately 241,000,000 pounds since the program was authorized in December, 1939, it is announced by the U. S. Dept, of Agricultiire. Lard, salt pork and smoked po:J< are included in the pur­ chases. The program was designed to assist corn and hog producers in improving marketing conditions. Com­ modities obtained are used by the fed­ eral surplus marketing administration for distribution in states to families on relief and for use in school lunch programs. Lard ad pork products al­ so are Included on the list of official surplus commodities moved to relief families through the department’s food stamp system, recently inaugur­ ated in Detroit after tests had been made in other large cities in the U. 8. —Lake Odessa's Bible Conference was the largest in years.

Besides supporting a small summer industry of commercial pickers, the blueberries of northern Michigan are proving an attraction for tourists. On thousands of acres of state land, they may be had for th? picking. This season production is spotty, but where the bushes escaped hard spring frosts the crop is abundant and the berries are of a good size, be­ cause of plentiful rainfall. Cool wea­ ther of spring and early summer has delayed their ripening. Since stripping the bushes with mecranical devices is prohibited, the average tourist can do about as well as some more experienced pickers. Many pickers gather just enough for their own use, for pies, puddings, and preserving. To the usual diversions of fishing, swimming and sightseeing, many vis­ itors on their northern Michigan tours are adding the fun of picking blueberries along the highways and at ramping spots, and enjoying serving them fresh. Fears of parents that sons who are enrolled in the Civilian Conservation Corps may be transferred automati­ cally into the nation’s armed forces if a military emergency presents itself, are unfounded in the opinion of Geo. Young, director of work activities, for Michigan state forest CC camps. He says, "Under existing conditions CCC boys are enrolled, not enlisted. It appears that the non-combatant training that is frequently mcnioned nowadays will be nothing more than a continuation of the training trat COC boys have been getting for the past seven years, only on a more in­ tensified basis. Training in , equip­ ment operation and maintenance, skill in handling and caring for the com­ mon tools of workmanship, cooking and baking, are important among the Several types of enrollee training.

While hunters killed less of some game species last hunting season than in the year before, they also took more of other species, comparisons compiled from licensees’ compulso-y report cards by Use conservation de­ partment's game division reveal. Greatest drop was in the take or cottontails, from 2,496,844 in lr38-39 to 1,903,382 In 1939-40. Yet the take of snowshoe hares was greater in the more recent season by 549,796 to 512,­ 917. The bag of sharptailed grouse in­ creased from 9,769 in the earlier sea­ son to 13,021 last season, a gain of 33 per cent The bag of wood cock also was greater, at 60,081 to 55,256 birds shot in the’ previous year. The prairie chicken take slipped slightlq, from 27.271 to 26.643 last year. The pheasant harvest is compiled at 707,­ 848 birds in 1939 as against 921,018 In 1938, but the ruffed grouse kill showed a more pronounced shift, from 316,787 in 1938 to 296,676 in the re­ sent season. Where 1938 had no open season on fox and gray squirrels, the take of these rodents was 619,421 fox and 29,­ 570 gray squirrels in the 1939 Beason. More raccoon were taken in the 19339 season both by hunting (35.287 to 333,442) and by trapping (9,449 to 6,501.) The take by trappers of oth­ er furbearera increased also, as the computed 1939-40 record lists 819,447 muskrats to 782,924 in the previous season; 3,602 foxes to 3,159 in the previous season; 19,707 mink to 17,­ 546 in the previous season; 599 bob­ cats compared with 532 in the pre­ vious season; and 723 badgers, com­ pared with 503 in the previous sea­ son. Trappers took more opossums in 1939-40, 22,590 to 19,634, but they got fewer skunks (34.485 in 19338 and 32,822 in 1939) and fewer weasels (32,500 in 1938 and 27,287 in 1939).The estimated kill in the 1939-40 hunting and t-apping season is com­ puted from reports of about 40 per cent of the small game hunters and about 60 per cent of the trappers list­ ed. The snowshoe hare, once plentiful in southern Michigan, now has left the region but is common in the swamps and forests of northern Michigan where farms are scarce. Name Poultry Director.

It takes an opening only fourthousandths of an inch to admit a newly hatched clothes moth larva. Tests by Wallace Colman of the fed­ eral bureau of entomology and plant quarantine indicate why a lar va can get into stored clothes when the cracks or open spaces are not large enough for the moth itself. Information re­ ceived at M. S. C. from the new ex­ perimentation of Colman shows that a moth is smart enough to lay her eggs in a crack In a box when she can't get into the clothes. The larva hatches and crawls in to feed upon woolens. To keep clothes safe, all cracks should be sealed up with gum­ med tape and for extra precaution, a plentiful supply of moth flakes should be in with the clothes. CHURCH NOTES Tho MDthoCat Chzrch.

Michigan became last week a bkely vital locale for the training, aa well as the equipping, of America’s new mechanized and mobile army. War Dept plans to make of Camp Custer a strategic defense and t aining point were divulged, and two emlsaries planned to leave Washington for Battle Creek to carry forward the project. Intending to confer with city offic­ ials. Rep. Paul W. Shafer and Major Arthur Wilson of the army general staff 'arrnged to fly to Battle Creek in an a-my bomber. Rep- Shafer, rnembe- of the House Military Affairs commitee, diac’osed in Washington that the War Dept, planned to establish in Camp Custer a mechanized division of approxi­ mately 12,000 men. Thus Camp Custer, heretofore used mainly for summer exe cises. would be turned into one of the country's chief army bases and would take a place beside Selfridge Field, near ML Clemens, as a major post in Amer­ ica’s defense system. Selfridge Field is the base of the first.pursuit group. The 31st pursuit group has its temporary base there. For some time Michigan's industry has been at work on armament and equipment, a phase of national de­ fense in which the state excels. Doubling of the size of Camp Cus­ ter and the creation of combat units with "all so ts of mechanised equip­ ment" are contemplated, Shafer said. The equipment, he said, would include blacksmith and machine shops and kitchens on wheels. Funds now available, Shafer said, will provide for acquisition of 6,126 additional acres, doubling the size of the military reservation. Camp Cus­ ter then would have sufficient space for training with light artillery, anti­ aircraft and anti-tank guns. Land acquisition details will be considered by Major Wilson, Shafer said. In the construction of additional barracks and other buildings, the War Dept, will take advantage of WPA imp-ovements of the last few years, Shafer said. An estimated $5,000,000 has been spent by the WPA in con­ structing roads and carrying out drainage projects, as well as con­ structing buildings. Last December, Shafer pointed out, a joint congressional committee inspecing army posts found that Camp Custer, midway between Detroit and Chicago, was strategically located to protect both cities. State and national political figures will gather at Mackinac Island Aug. 3 fo, the dedication of the Fitzgerald Memorial Gardens and unveiling of a bronze placque, chairman Joseph H. Thompson -of the Mackinac Island State Park commission, announced. The spot has, for many years, been known as the governor’s gardens, and is located directly in front of the governor's summer mansion. The gar­ dens and the placque will be ded‘cated to the memory of the late Governor Frank D. Fitzgerald. Congressman F ed Bradley of Rog­ ers City will preside over the cere­ monies and the dedication address wl 1 be given by’Governor Dickinson. Others who have announced they will attend include U-. S.

A fee-minded expert with a costly vocabulary. . A professional man who meddled in everybody else’s business and never did anything about his own. A man who drafted bills and helped to run legislatures. A man who was hired by criminals to defeat justice. These were yesterday s misconceiv­ ed ideas about the attorney-at-law. the professional 'man at the bar— ideas which for years past plagued one of the most important and influ­ ential groups in American life. eeived requests for assistance from the Supreme court; both houses of the legislature, and Judicial Coun­ cil. In every instance the State Bar was able to give the assistance re­ quested, to the complete satisfaction of the governmental official or body who made the request. The governing boa d of the State Bar of Michigan is a commission of twenty-one members. These commis­ sioners are busy lawyers, at the peak of their professional careers, yet dur­ ing the past year they contributed an aggregate of over one year’s working time to the profession without one cent of compensation. In addition to this governing board, over three hundred lawyers on twenty general committees and over one hun­ dred fifty lawyers on seventeen griev­ ance committees contributed time and services of inestimable Value to the profession and to the cause of justice in this state, all without any compen­ sation whatever. This brief summary does not by any means include all the work being done by the State Bar, but the exam­ ples mentioned indicate the poten­ tialities of a self-governing profes­ sional organization. Few professional groups, if any, have worked as vigorously and intel­ ligently—and effectively—toward rais­ ing standards as has the State Bar of Michigan during the past five years. * Hight Page* * NEW CROP FOR N.E.

He found him­ self at one time in great need; in fact in debt Then he- had word that his friend had left for a distant'country and that, for the time being, there would be no money available fo.- him. It appeared to be a desperate situa­ tion. At this point another Christian Scientist, who learned of it, declared earnestly that "justice, honesty, can­ not be abjured’ anywhere or by any­ one, for where Life is, God is, and in God's presence, justice and integrity are forever manifested. Within a very few days an unexpected cable from his friend reached the man in need, telling him to communicate with his agent in a nearby city in order to receive payment of a considerable sum of money. Thus was indeed proof of an understanding of the ever-oper­ ative justice of divine Principle. If injustice and persecution seem to dominate in many situations in the world today, it behooves us to rise above the camouflage of mortal thought and to stand in the presence of divine Mind, the source of justice. Here order, law, impartiality, and mercy reign. Here men find spirit­ ual security. Here the idea of God is seen, incapable of persecuting or be­ ing persecuted; incapable of dishon­ esty, injustice, hatred. Love, Spirit, reigns, embracing one and all; im­ parting Inspiration, faith, and spirit­ ual understanding. Love and its manifestations alone have power. Mrs! Eddy writes (ibid., p. 128), “No crown nor sceptre nor rulers rampant can quench the vital herit­ age of freedom." This divine fact needs to be universally demonstrated. As the whole earth needs to be re­ deemed where Christ, Truth Is ad­ mitted into human experience, so all mankind will be blessed in proportion to its acceptance of the universal reign of justice. On page 277 of “Miscellaneous Writings" Mrs. Eddy says, ’-Justice waits, and is used to waiting, and right wins the everlast­ ing victory."—Christian Science Mon­ itor. ----- o------- Starting July 22, we will only be open Wedn esday and Saturday Evenings.

M3C BEU'S FIND NEW STATE CROP Mrs. Mary Tidwell, 37, of Sweet­ water, Texas, on Wednesday filed with County Clerk Murrel Jinks, a $400 bond as security for her appear­ ance in Ionia cl-cult court August 27 as principal -witness in the trial of Ivan (Ted) Edlin. 37, Maxwel villc, Ind. The latter is charged with shooting Mrs. Tidwell, carnival own­ er, as she sat In a Belding restaurant three weeks ago. Ca-rying her shattered left arm in a sling, the attractive southern lady handed Mr. Jinks a $750 U. S. gov­ ernment bond to cover the $400 amount assessed by Judge Royal A. Hawley to cover both herself and an employee, Mias Lee Be le Berger, 19, also of Sweetwater. Th other employees, Mr. and Mrs. JakK Anderson, formerly of Ten­ nessee, and Gordon Sprout of Illinois held as witnesses, were, released on their own recognizance after the stated inability to ra’se a $200 total bond. Judge Hawley announced that failure of the three to appear at the time of the Edlin trial wi 1 be a vio­ lation of a federal statute. Mrs. Tidwell told ah Ionia County News repo: ter Wednesday that she held no malice in her heart for the man who allegedly shot her because he was jealous over the fact that she was returning to her divorced hus­ band, a prominent Texan carnival op­ erator. She said that her prayers to be spared so that she might continue to mother her four year o’d daughter had been answered and that conse­ quently she could feel no bitterness toward anyone. Mrs. Tidwell claimed that as an Elastcm Sta- member she was a firm believer in the Golden Rule of “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." However, Judge Haw­ ley has indicated that she will be a major factor in the prosecution of Edlin. Educated in Alabama schools and colleges, Mrs. Tidwell for nearly 20 years has been affiliated with the carnival business. Since her estrange­ ment earlier this year she came to Michigan and purchased a small car­ nival outfit from a woman in Cassop­ olis. At present the conce’n is play­ ing at Lowell and will be again at Belding the week after the scheduled trial opens.—Ionia County News. Portions of 11 counties in Michigan Mem headed for production of a new and profitable crop, white clover seed, on the basis of results that are being obtained by a few of the more ven­ turesome fa mers tn the northeast portion of the Lower Peninsula. War has shut off much of the Am­ erican supply of the seed which came from Po and. The price this year is approaching a dollar a pound. Appa entiy a harvest of a bushel of 60 lbs. is possible to an acre. Some domes­ tic supplies are being grown in Wis­ consin. New York Washington, Lou­ isiana and Oregon. Soil conservation and a new trend in Michigan to mo e livestock and es­ pecially to producing more of our orti beef calves.for feeding are two fac­ tors stimulating need for the clover seed. Even lawnmakers eagerly de­ mand white clover seed, for it aids in smothering out weeds and making a thick turf. No one seems to know the secret of why the short, wild white clover makes seed so easily. But farmers on certain soil types in the following counties, or portions of these counties a-e realizing they may have a verit­ able gold mine. These are the coun­ ties of Alcona, Oscoda, the hub of the area, Montmorency, Alpena, Presque Isle, Cheboygan, Otsego, and parts of Gladwin, Arenac, Iosco and Ogemaw. The recipe? According to C. M. Harrison, grass specialist at M. S. C., the process is simple. Take a grass pasture where patches of volunteer white clover have appeared frequent­ ly. The heavier, moisture retaining soils are more suitable as white clov­ er is not adapted to drouthy sands. Add superphosphate liberally, a 300 pound to the acre application every three years or the equivalent in an­ nual applications. Keep it closely grazed. The dense white clover cov­ erage should show up in the second year and continue to improve under this management To get a seed crop, pasture in the early spring sufficiently to keep the grass short but discontinue grazing along about the first of June.

It will not be a mere training camp, nor a supply depot, but a permanent base with a division or more of-troops. The camp sprang up during the last war, when it was one of the great training grounds of the coun­ try. but after the war the army dwindled to nominal size and there were only very limited activities at Camp Custer. Now the reservation is to be enlarged by an additional 6,000 acres, and 2,000 WPA workers will begin erecting permanent barracks and other structures. It will be the headquarters of a new mechanized division. A number of factors contributed to the choice of the location—includ­ ing its excellent climate and its strategic position with regard to pop­ ulation, transportation, military in­ dustries, and defense. It is near the geographical center of that area in which much of the mechanized equip­ ment for the nation's defense needs will be built. While attacks on De­ troit or Chicago by a hostile foreign power seem almost inconceivable, a few months ago it seemed inconceiv­ able that France would have capitu­ lated and that England's 4ry life should be in jeopardy. Any defense plan that is to be really effective must be designed to protect vital industrial centers. Mo­ bile defense unite based at Camp Custer would be in position to move quickly to the defense of such cen­ ters as Chicago or Detroit. With a great air base at Selfridge Field, near Mt. Clemens, both land and air de­ fense would be available for a large and important area. The new and enlarged Camp Cus­ ter has probably come to stay, for it is not likely that our army will ever again be allowed to shrink to a mere skeleton force.—Ex. Custer. The Nazi Way. Nazi military victory, possible in France are being exploited by the Nazis in other countries where their military farces have never set foot As in France, so in the Ba'kan States, are groups who believe their interests will be served by the exten­ sion of the Nazi way. Sometimes these are groups of the extreme ■'left," sometimes of the "right" They include persons who seek the establishment of socialism by a short cut; the dictator method. They In­ clude others who seek safeguards against discontented elements of their own populations. Nazi military successes enhance the prestige of such groups wherever they exist, and increase the power of these groups to gain their ends thru terrorism. Thus the rule over major­ ities by minorities is extended, and the voice of the peoples is silenced by censorship imposed from within, but exploited from without. Even in the U. S. there are groups and individuals who imagine their in­ terests lie in the application of in­ creasingly authoritarian concepts of government. Should Nazilsm break dow nthe last resistance to it in Eu­ rope its influence could no longer be confined to EXirope. Its intrigues al­ ready are felt in Latin America. Americans would find it increasing/ ly difficult to suppress totalitarian spokesmen if the "new order” for Europe should be seized by world autocracy as a base for the new "world order’" envisaged in GermanJapanese circles. Subsidies would promote totalitarian projects, and their representatives would benefit by every immunity that joint diplo­ matic pressures on the United States could procure. Americans need not fear such de­ velopment if they are awake. They can guard against them. If they see how' other peoples have been divided, they can plan defenses of their own unity. But they must understand that totalitarianism is a world prenomenon, and is seeking a world, not a single country or even continent, in which to operate.—Christian Science Monitor. Taxes. Few people realize just how much money is collected in taxes in this country by the various governmental units. Each year more taxes are added as more and more services are demanded of govern­ ment. Almost 25 per cent out of every dollar earned in the U. S. now goes to the tax collector. Tax experts and statisticians estimate that nearly 70 per cent of all taxes colected in this country at present find their way in­ to the price of things we buy. In order to bring to light some of these so-called "hidden taxes," Mon­ santo Magazine, published by Mon santo Chemical company, maae a sur­ vey in a typical American town of the purchases made by middle-class citizens in their customary manner of ihring. This is what the survey, pub­ lished in the May (1940) issue, re­ vealed: Out of every 31 spent for new au­ tomobiles, 15c is tax. Out of every 31 spent for rent, 25c The notion that defense of the "American way" be­ gins only at “the water's edge" still immobilizes too large a body of public opinion in the United States. Some day, and the sooner the better, Americans will awake to im­ plications of Nazi military success which are now only vaguely felt by many.

Out of every 31 paid on telephone bills, 15c is tax Out of every 32 spent for milk and dairy products, 10c is tax. Out of every 31 spent for automomobile upkeep, 37c is tax. In studying the question further let us take the item above which says 15c of every dollar paid for telephone service is a tax. Recently the Michigan Bell Tele­ phone company presented to the state a check for 31.550,289.13, represent­ ing half the company's state proper­ ty levy for 1939. The telephone com­ pany’s total 1939 tax bill was ~ 36.­ 179,000, an average of 38.26 for each telephone in service. Every person who uses a telephone helps to pay these taxes. As govern­ mental costs rise, so do taxes. In­ dustrial efficiency has made possible great decreases in charges for indi­ vidual telephone services but the ris­ ing tax burden cannot be controlled by the company. It must be passed on to the customers who is now pay­ ing more than eight dollars a year to the government Elvery person has a vital interest in taxes and in the cost of govern­ ment services. This is not an argu­ ment against needed government services but it is a reminder that the public has the biggest stake of all in seeing that government is operated on a businesslike basis with a mini­ mum of waste and a minimum of un­ necessary functions performed. responsibility, of radio transmitU-re.

The Michtgn Dept, of Health figures for accidental deaths from January through June show 689 mo­ tor vehicle fatalities on the highways and 673 fatal accidents in the home. A study made for the National Saf­ ety Council shows that of the 673 fatal home accidents, falls and bums account for four out of five of the deaths. "Eighty per cent of the fatal falls in homes were accidents happening to persons over 65," Bays Dr. H. Allen Moyer. State Health Commissioner. "nUdoubtedly most of these falls were due to the infirmities of age, rather than actual hazardous condfions in the home. It will be difficult to re­ duce the number of these accidents, for the actual cause of them lies in the physical condition of elderly peo­ ple." For the first six months of the year, the three leading causes of acciden­ tal deaths in the home were: ' falls 404; burns and scalds 142; suffocation 34. About a quarter of the victims of burns and scalds were babies and children under five, and another quar­ ter were persons over 65. “Good Flows Into Every Avenue Of Being.” To attempt to reconcile, from merely material standpoint ,the var­ ious contradictions in human exper­ ience, in which it seems that the good thirtes in life often come abundantly ^nd^effort'essly to a certain few, where^ many others have to strug­ gle arduuously and sometimes vainly for the bare necessities, is unsatis­ factory and futile.

The program is listed under “Camera Oub of the Air" and consists of a weekly 15 minute prog: am each Sat- Judge Malcolm Hatfield. It is the chief food of growing chil- such as parental teachers and minis­ ters, who are responsible for charac­ ter training of children. To accom­ plish this end. schools must be freed from the limitations set by state legisatures and be authorised to intro­ duce the subjects of eugenics and ec­ onomics into the school courses. and also to teach civic responsibility. PracGcal instances of harmonious family lives should be illustrated to students; (fiscn—inns on recreation, child care and budget should be held. Plans for the individual develop ment of each child must also be con­ sidered- To be specific, each commun­ ity must so organize itself that it can provide the needs of the individual. These intrinsic needs can be elass fled. as physical, emotional and individual. In other words, the physical will in­ sure a child the necessities at life, the emotional will cause him to have a feeling of security, while the indi­ vidual will enable him to acqu re cer­ tain well defined skills which he can utilize to his advantage. The area is being plotted out this summer under supervision of P. A. Herbert, head of the college forestry department . Each 20 foot square is to be staked^ and mapped and mea­ sured. No trails roads or fireplaces are to be built in the area. The plot of trees is located on Hagadom road south of Mt. Hope road. Growth largely is in trees, which are so dense that shrubbery has not had much chance to develop. Trees in the grove are mostly southern Mich­ igan hardwoods including beech, ma­ ple. basswood and elm. Trees are to be measu-ed and fig­ ures obtained on tree crowns and the amount of sunlight that filters thru in the various 20 foot squares. When 10 years roll by, acco ding to Professor Herbert, the same type of survey will be repeated to d’scover what has happened in this so-called virgin forest- After the 1950 results are obtained the area may again be left undisturbed until another 10 or 20 years pass. Even fallen trees likely will not be tmoved. These would be sources of virgin soli, important for further study by the college soils department. Children In Court Unpopular, Unattractive, And Un­ wanted. An adolescent wayward boy pre­ sented a difficult case to juvenile au­ thorities, because he wou'd not coop­ erate in carrying out any program designed for his reclamation. The av­ erage judge had observed scores of similar youngsters, who could be classified as unattractive, unpopular and unwanted children. Such children are frequently not endowed with any of the Inherited traits which char­ acterize the normal child.

Bears are al­ ways "big*' in such ci cumstances. When Furlong advanced the bear retreated, just a little.

As hot wether prevailed generally over the state, lake fishing increased in popularity. When temperatures of small streams rose, trout moved out to deeper and cooler waters. In some districts a few dead trout have been found along stream banks.

A OW many members of the Snap­ shot Guild have taken snapshots this summer of their children? It would be interesting to know for so few parents realise the importance of keeping what might be called a “Memory Album’’—fascinating, sto­ ry-telling pictures of their children. The two pictures above are excel­ lent examples of story-telling plcturea—the kind you should strive to take for your "Memory Album.” They were taken on just such a day as we hope to have tomorrow—sun­ shine and bright skies. Mother snapped little Billie as he was mak­ ing a vain effort to sweep the front walk while Janp-Was apparently pleasure-bound with her toy dog and dolls Aren’t they real story-telling snapshots? Suppose that you want to snap a picture of your little son or daughter playing or “working” in the yard. This is what you should do. First of all don't try to get the child to pose, for the chances are he will appear in a stiff, unnatural position in the finished picture. Let him be­ come busily engaged in whatever be is doing and then ratbsr nonchal­ antly get as near to him as possible with your camera. If you have a box camera you should not be closer vhan eight feet Have the camera (If it Is H of the box type) set at the largest "stop” or lens opening and you are ready to "shoot” the minute your child unintentionally or intention­ ally, If he is a good actor—assumes an interesting pose or position. Be sure all of him shows in the finder or else he may appear in the finished • print minus his head or an arm. Here’s another simple precaution. The shutter on a box camera oper­ ates at a speed of approximately 1/25 of a second. This is not fast enough to stop action when the camera is close to the subject so in taking the picture of your child wait until that moment when he Is not In motion before snapping the picture for otherwise the Image will be blurred. If you have a folding camera with a footage scale you can work as close as six feet to your subject and get a larger image. Bet the diaphragm control pointer at All or if it is quite shady, at fA. Bet the shutter speed Indicator at 1/M of a second or num­ ber twenty-five. Locate the child ta the finder and snap the picture. Don’t have the sun striking tbe child ta the face and than expert him not to squint. Let the light coms across his fare and you will get in­ teresting shadows and show Ms tan­ turns much better. And there'll be no squinting. JOHN VAN GUILDER | �Illu NAbMtlLLA NEAi, Barry and I hihtiih] Eaton Co.

Doctor Townsend Says......... * Newspapers scream of ths war in Europe, but there is a war on the home front — right hers in Amer­ ica. It doesn't make front page copy because it’s less spectacular. It is ironic that we know more of the misery in Europe than of the misery at home. Our war is a war against pov­ erty, a war to emancipate the third of our population living on sub­ standard levels. A loan to aid the victims of military aggression un­ questionably is meritorious. But how about money to aid the victims of poverty in our own back yard? Wo must not, in the hysteria of sensational events abroad, lose sight of the less spectacular problems at home. Poverty and insecurity are powerful enemies — more potent in the long run than the greatest mili­ tary machine. If we can abolish economic misery, we have built the first line of defense in our country. fl THlTtSDAY, AUG. 1, IUIj pleted the second grade.

Twenty others as­ pire for the lieutenant governor posi. tion on the ballot Compared with the previous record of 190 aspliants for state jobs, th s year’s political crop' brought 240—an all-time high for Michigan. In Wayne county the primary ballots, blanket­ size, will contain 509 candidates! It prompted one metropolitan daily newspaper to wonder what was wo .tie —a boss-ridden convention in which slates were fixed in "smoke filled back rooms" or a confusing primary ballot containing so many names that a voter was inclined to throw up his hands in utten helplessness.. It was the old-time party boss, who hand-picked the candidates for state contract reasons .that brought the party convention into ill repute and inspired the popular movement for selection of candidates by populavote. Now, the other extreme is de­ veloping—a primary ballot of blanket size containing 509 candidates in one county alone. As the Detroit com­ mentator wailed, “we merely jumped from the frying pan over to an equa'ly hot g riddle.”'. Democracy will have a tough test right at home! Gov.

We must be on the a’ert for any real evidences of subversive activities and report them promptly. On the other hand, we must refrain from "seein’ things" which do not exist, from bringing hu­ miliation or annoyance to persons who are guilty of no wrong and, above all things, we must refra'n from seeking to pay off grudges through repo: ting of Innocent persons and subjecting them to suspicion or investigation.

Sanitary Resorts To Be Marked. Tourists looking for sanitary re­ sorts in Michigan's vacation land will have an easier time of it starting this week when the first of the new black and white roadside signs -will be post­ ed at approved resorts by state and local health departments. The sanita-y Inspection of I cabin camps, trailer camps, resorts and other summer recreation centers in Michigan is rapidly being completed, according to John M. Hepler, engin­ eering director for the State Health Dept The camps and resorts meet­ ing the safe sanitary requirements outlined by the state and passed after inspection by the Barry County Sani­ tary Engineers will now be marked by a large black and white roadside sign reading "Sanitation Approved" in order that visitors will know where sanitary accommodations are avail­ able. The various resorts are being clas­ sified in three types according to the quality of the sanitary facilities of­ fered. Type 1 resorts Include those having compelte modem facilities, in­ cluding hot and cold running water, flush toiletS' electric lights, etc. Type 2 resorts may have some of these mode.n facilities, but not all. Type 3 resorts will have safe water sup­ plies and sewage disposal systems, but these need not be of the most modem type. All of the resorts posted with "San­ itation Approved" signs will be safe from a health standpoint, Mr. Hepler decla-es. Resorts which do not meet sanitary requirements will not be given an approval sign. Resort own­ ers have been most cooperative in making improvements to comply with sanitary standards. A directory of approved resorts will be compiled lat­ er and made available to the public. —Miss Mildred Marshall, daughter of Mrs. Lucy Marshall and a teacher in the Walton township school, has just received an unusual honor in an appointment by Dr. Eugene B.

FALL TERM TO OPEN SEPTEMBER S3 Nearly every Michigan county will be i epresented in the 1940 freshman class in M. S. C.. according to Regis­ trar Robert 8. Linton. Already 1,615 new students have been approved for admission in the fa'l term, which be­ gins Monday. Sept. 23. and plans are being completed to accommodate ap­ proximately 2,500 freshman and new students when school opens. Last year's freshman and new stu­ dents totaled 2,469. Mr. Linton said, and present figures indicate the 1940 beginning class will be equally large. A total enrollment of approximately 7,500 is anticipated by college offi­ cials. Last year's en- oilment of 6,­ 893 students in the fail term was an all-time record high for the state college. The fall term officially opens with Freshman Week on Sept 23, with up­ perclassmen registering on Sept. 27­ 28. Classes wil begin on Monday, Sept. 30. Although numerous staff change* haVe been made in preparation of the fall term, only 24 of the new faculty members are additions to the staff. Others replace former staff members who have died. ietired, or resigned. Two departments will be headed by newly-appointed professors. Prof. Roy Underwood, formerly head of the Ward-Belmont Conservatory of Mu­ sic. becomes bead of the Music depa tment, and Prof. C. C. Dewitt for­ merly of the Michigan College of Mines and Technology, will head the Chemical Engineering department. Reservations are being taken in the college's dormitories for both men and women, and while no rooms in dormitories will be available in September, students entering late will be accommodated in Lansing and East Lansing homes. TIPS ABOUT FOOD IN REFRIGERATOR It takes a little engineering know­ ledge for a housewife to properly use today's modem electric refrigerator, it 1* agreed by members of the home economics staff at M. S. C. Here are some of the ideas that will make the machine operate more efficiently and serve it* purpose of re­ ducing food spoilage. Convenient location is desirable, with a work table nearby to hold food as it i* put in or taken out of food storage. The fewer the trips and the fewer time* the door must be opened, the more efficient the refrig­ erator will prove. More economy is involved in mak­ ing sure the machine i* on the level and in a comparatively cool place away from the stove or from the sun­ ny windows and in the winter away from radiator or heat register. Temperatures are impo. tant. A temperature a little under 50 degrees Fahrenheit will keep most perishable food* a reasonable length of time. There should be one a*ea that is 45 degrees or lower, and service men us­ ually point out this is directly below or beside the Ice or freezing unit Milk, cream and butter quickly take up odors from other foods, so these perishables should be kept cov­ ered and in the coldest part of the re­ frigerator. Meats, fish and poultry also rate the colder portion of th ■to age space. Uncooked or cooked, these should be kept covered and un­ til cooked should not be stored very long, especially fresh fish. Eggs should be popped into the refrigera­ tor. too, as a few hours at room temperatu-e can injure quality. Cleanliness is essentia].

And along in December the canned peach­ es are more than welcome as a breakfast fruit, in salads, and in all kind* of dessert*. The quality of canned peaches de­ pend* largely on the quality of the fresh peaches used, exp a n members of the home economics extension staff. M. S. C. Canning does not im­ prove the quality of the fruit, and on­ ly the very best peaches are suitable. To make sure of the* quality, look fr peaches that are firm and ripe but not soft Avoid those that are badly bruised, those with brown spot* of decay, and those that a e uneven In shape and have punctures made by worms. The pink blush which is found on many varieties of peaches tell* Little about the quality. But the rest of the color on the outside of a peach is very important If this background color is green, the peach may ripen with a poor flavor or it may become shriveled. But the peach is a safe buy if this green -co’or has changed to a yellow or whitlah-yellow color. Peaches are easy to can successful­ ly, but they are likely to turn an un­ pleasing brown color if they are not handled correctly. The best way to avoid this brown discoloration is to heat the peache* in the syrup for 3 to 5 minutes and then pack them into the jars or cans while they are hot. Heating the peaches this way makes them pack better and cuts down the time needed to process the th. The water-bath method of process­ ing peaches is more successful than the oven method.

We appreciate the fine cooperation of our local newspaper in giving us adequate space for Town­ send news. . Sometimes the leaders of the Townsend Plan have been so-ely tried as they have seen how the pub­ lic press has treated the Townsend movement, assail ng Dr. Townsend with calumny and slander, meeting his statements with criticisms and falsehood.

Tribute To Thornapple Ri\*r. Nashville is a small village, just a lit­ tle country town; It lies in a valley with hills scattered all around; It is located in Michigan, a state that has gained great renown For its rlve.s and inland lakes that everywhere abound. Now if you are traveling this way, just stop and look around. And you will sec a river flowing through this town. There has been no great event here to place its name beside the waters of fame; It’s just a small river flowing along, Thomapple by name; Its waters are backed up by a dam to furnish power To turn the wheels of a grist mill, that grinds our wheat into flour. If you should take a stroll along this river in the summer time, You might see some fishe men sitting in a boat with pole and line. I never saw any great catch made, but they like the fun Of sitting there holding that pole be­ neath a hot summer sun. ’ I met a man one time, from Califor­ nia he came; Why he was so interested in this riv­ er I can hardly explain; There may be some background of which I have never heard tell, For I am not acquainted with its an­ cient history very well. In bygone years the Indians may have had war dances by this st: earn. And that would be a very interesting scene; But they are all gone now, there is none that remain, Election Battle On Plan.

NUMBER 8. New Directors For Kellogg Foundation Michigan Mirror Emory W. Morri*, General Director; To Dictators Hitler, Mussolini and Stalin who dream of world control, the answer of Michigan public schools is this: "Defend democracy through educa­ tion!" . While news headlines stress Amer­ ica's feverish race against time for armaments, Michigan educators quiet­ ly push plans for a long-range defense of democracy through ah Intensive program of citienship training in ev­ ery Michigan community. And as history goes, they are probably justi­ fied in assuming that books are more powerful than bullets. It just de­ pends on the way you look at things. The little red schoolhouse of "Coun­ try Schoolmaster” liters’y lore has been replaced in some perts of the state by the modern consolidated school. Yet as a symbol of free edu­ cation it remains the American bulwa:k against the new flood of Euro­ pean idoelogies. It is a startling realization of how far-reaching Mr. Hitler's march of events has extended. Here is the reasoning behind the Michigan school movement tlon, expressed the need of education for democracy in the following state­ ment at the 1940 convention in Mil­ waukee: It becomes increasingly clear in the United States that the crisis throughout the world today goes to the very roots of our system of val­ ues and that it involves those per­ sonal rights, political libeities and representative institutions which we associate with the ideal of demo­ cracy. It is up to the schools to awaken the aspirations and finer 1mpu'ses of the individuals who make up our democracy." Michigan's public school system guaraantees a fiee education for all children 5 years old to and including high school. Attendance is compul­ sory for youth 7 to 16 years old. The 32.566 teachers (1937-38) re­ ceived an average yearly salary of $1,524.04. Averages in other years: $1,993.58 in 1929-30; $1,328.81 in 1935-36; $1,614.10 in 1938-39. Students total 960.420; school dis­ tricts. 6,558. The State of Michigan by legisla­ tive appropriations maintains six col­ leges and a university at which teach­ ers can receive training: Central State at Mt. Pleasant; Michigan State Teachers at Ypsilanti, Northern State at Marquette, Western State at Kalamazoo, all normal colleges, and Michigan State col'ege at East Lans­ ing. and the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor.

Dr. George B. Darling and Dr. Em­ ory W. Morris were elected Monday afternoon as president - and general director, respectively, of the Kellogg Foundation and will divide the ad­ ministrative responsibilities formerly held by Dr. Stuart Pritchard, who died August 4. They were chosen by the Founda­ tion board of trustees which also elected Dr. William 8. Sadler of Chi­ cago as a member of the| corporation and its board of trustees. Both Dr. Darling and Dr. Morris have been associate directors of the Foundation, Dr. Darling serving as comptroller, and Dr. Morris as treas­ urer. The associate director positions were abolished and the two men will do the comptroller and treasurer work. In addition to their new duties.

Mankind must learn to live .in obed­ ience to Principle, which is God, to accept the facta of spl itual reality, and to be ever aware of them as an invincible armor against the suppo­ sitional force of-material weapons or mental despotism. What are some of these invincible facta? The funda­ mental fact of being is the allness and all-power of God. good. Infinite good expresses itself infinitely; there­ fore, there is an abundance of good for all nations and peoples on the earth. It is a spiitrual fact that qualities o- attributes of Spirit, such as love, joy, peace, justice, intelli­ gence, mercy, purity, integrity, being allied to Deity or omnipotence, alone have power. They alone are desir­ able. They alone have true va’ue. It is a fact that the Individual who cul­ tivates these qualities, who regards them as the paramount values and necessities of existence, dwells in the safety of omnipotence, and progresses into ever-incrasing prosperity, peace, and abundance. The nation whbse citizens so live, progresses toward ne winventions and ways of freedom; freedom from the trammels, the bond­ age, the limitations of material be­ liefs, Into paths of spiritual suprem­ acy and splendor unknown to mortal sense. To keep one's thoughts in obedience to the divine Principle that creates and governs the universe, to claim the presence and power of Im­ mutable Principle, is to be aware of safety even in the midst of the carnal mind’s claim of war. In infinite Mind or Spirit there is no war. Christian Science enables us to keep awake to this Invincible truth, to this imperative fact of be­ ing. It demands that we refuse to accept the claim of the carnal mind that it has powe- to create fear and doubt, power to confuse and stupefy; that its will is Imperative, and its weapons Invincible. God is govern­ ing His universe in immutab'e right­ eousness and justice. His will alone Is being done in earth as in heaven. The call has come to every Ch-istian Scientist to stand unmoved in what Mrs. Eddy, the Discoverer and Found­ er of Christian Science, has called (The First Church of Christ, Scientist and Miscellany, p. 178) "the invinci­ ble process and purity of Christianity whereby the sick are healed and sin­ ners saved."

Wewt JUpte Grove Washington Letter. By Mrs Vern Hawblitx. By Clare E. Hoffman. The North E’.&ngeheal S. S. will have a picnic Friday, Aug. 23, at Red's landing, Thornapple lake. Ev­ eryone welcome. Potluck dinner at noon. There will be a miscellaneous shower Friday evening, Aug. 23, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Reid for their son, Charles Reid, and MIbh Ruth Jones, who will be married soon. Potluck lunch. Everyone is cordially invited. ____ I The picnic at the Moore school last Saourday was not so well attended owing to the Barry County Fair. Those who attended enjoyed the de­ licious watermelon brought by John C. Ketcham. There was some discus­ sion about not having a reunion ev­ ery year, but it was decided to have it again next year. Mrs. Belle Ev­ erts WM elected president, Ida No-­ ton vice president, Vera Hawb'itz secretary, and John Norton treasurer. School will begin in the Moore school Aug. 26 with Mrs. Doris Hyde as teacher. Mr. and Mrs. Merle Hoffman and Mr. and Mrs. George Hoffman and daughter Velma are enjoying a mo­ tor trip through the West.

The best universities, so that they will be able | to step into factories and produce the wishes of their friends go with them Military Training — The National Guard. The President asked authority to call out I he National Guard for mili­ tary training. I know of no one opjxjsed to tha» procedure. Unfortunate'y, the Pieaident also asked— and he jammed through Congress— authority to send the National Guard on active service anywhere in the Western Hemisphere. Am amendment to limit that service to the continent­ al United States was voted down. If military training was the purpose of calling out the National Guard— and certainly they need the training if we are to prepare for adequate de­ fense—there was no reason for giv­ ing the President authority to send the Guard into South America, where we have never been asked; where wt are sure to get into trouble. Yo uand I know that, if the Gua*d Is sent to South America and there they become involved in military strife, the regular Army and Navy must be sent to aid them. Our na­ tional defense will not be strengthen­ ed by .scattering our forces all over the Western Hemisphere when we are so ill-prepared here at home. The President's demand for author­ ity over the National Guard is further evidence of his determination to in­ volve us in the World war. In my judgment, he should not be given the power to make war until the people, through Congress, have declared war. For months now, he has assumed to act as a d etator and it is because of his sayings and his actions that our danger from abroad has been greatly increased. from this ne^hborhood, m her moth­ Rapids.

The giving of mechan­ ical, technical scientific training and knowledge is more important at this time than the drafting of a ml1 lion men to go into camp and there at­ tempt to learn the ar of warfare by car. jing wooden guns and maneuver­ ing around cardboard tanks. It is conceded by army officers that they cannot now train a million men. So why enlist them before we have the facilities and the instructors ne­ cessary to do the job? It has not been shown that our voluntary en­ listment law will not give us all the men who can be adequately trained, all the men needed at this time or in the immediate future. The truth is that the army officers and recruiting stations have igno ed the law which permits enlistments for a year; have discouraged such enlistments. We are still at peace and, as Sena­ tor Vandenberg recently bo well said. "War is not inevitable." Our surest safeguard against war is to get down to a sane, businesslike program of preparing efficiently and economically to defend these United States. Inadequately prepared as we are, we should not weaken our abil­ ity to defend ourselves by sending our army or our navy to other coun­ tries. Let us guard our seacoasts, our borders, with an impenetrable ring of warshipS' forts, tanks, planes and trained men. The ■'appropriation of billions of dollars, the conscripting of millions of men, will not accomp’ish that Only by intelligent, salf-sacrlficing opera­ tion of our industries, loyal service from the wo kers and a willingnees on the part of everyone to do his part can, such a thing be made possible. Let us be about it, instead of hyster­ ically driving forward to get into this war. Let us have ships, tanks, planes, guns, munitions, everything that can conceivab y be used for national de­ fense, in extravagant abundance— not for the purpose of making war, but so that no nation, no dictator, however foolhardy, will take the chance of attacking us.

DIAMANTE b ■• -HAY FEVEB" SEASON IS NOW ON To some people, Thursday was Thursday, or August 15, or payday, or just anothe • day. But to a select and suffering group of human beings, it was the day the hay fever begins. There ar® those who swear they never need a calendar to tell when it's the 15th of August—all they have to do is watch for the red glow to appea- in the r noses. Others, more inclined toward rug­ ged individualism, insist their recur­ rent misery shies away f'om a date as common as the 15th and bobs up, say, on the 19th or the 23rd. For the fortunate few who can skip off to northern Michigan or Reno, Nev. (they'.e equally free of the pes­ tiferous pollen), the ides of August hold little terror. For the rest of the sufferers in the ha/ fever belt, about the only consolation is that perhaps there arc worse p'aces to be. Southern and central Michigan are not nearly as sneezy, for example, as Indianapolis o- Peoria, Ul., which have the doubtful honor of being the worst cities in the country for float­ ing pollen. Northern Michigan is virtually pollen-free. Even in supposedly safe places, however, a sniffle or two can blow in on a strong breeze if it cornea from the wrong direction. JUDSON BASSETT, FREMONT, WAS 80 ON AUGUST 9 Judson Bassett of Fremont, father of Mra. Martin Graham, who has been in very poor health for- some time, has been looking forward to reaching his 80th birthday. His wish was happily realized, for Aug. 9 he was 80 years old. and the son's family who sha-e hfs home gave him a real party. Relatives and friends shower­ ed him with cards, fruit, ice cream, and flowers, which made his sick room very lovely. The daughte -inaw, Mra. Albert Bassett made him a large beautiful birthday cake cover­ ed with 80 candles. This and other cakes and lemonade were served to the 51 callers who came throughout the day to pay their respects to their pioneer neighbor. ■ Flach caller was allowed to lemain in the sick room very briefly, and th's week he is re­ ported better. Ehndently the party did him good. L. B. C. Mrs. Maud Benedict and s ster, Mra. Sharpsteen, entertained the Maple Grove Birthday club at the farm home of Ms. Benedict, with ten members and one visitor present. A lovely roast pork dinner was served, and everything that goes with it. Meeting called to order and dues paid, and next meeting planned to be held with Mra. Lillian Mason at the home of her daughter, Mra. Ivan Mayo, at Bedford some time in September. Mrs. Wood handed the dub ladies some Aunt Het poems to read. MRS. VAN’S DRESS SHOP OPENED SATURDAY Mrs. Van's Dress Shop, Mra. Blanche VanDeventer's new home dress shop and apparel exchange, op­ ened Saturday under very favorable conditions at her home, corner Cleve­ land and Gregg streets.

' I Hailing the most Important official endorsement in his tong fight for pen­ sions. Dr. Francis E Townsend wel­ comed Charles L. McNa y, U. S. Senator from Oregon and Republican Vice Presidential candidate, into the ranks of those who advocate immed­ iate enactment of the Townsend P an. McNary expressed his belief in Senate Bill 3255, the bill which will w ite the Townsend Plan into the laws of the nation, with this forceful declaration, "I be!eve the nation would prosper and human happiness be vastly increased if this were done.” Sen. McNary’s powerful backing lifts the campaign to new heights Ln the final d^ive to victory. His aid to Downey in guiding the bill through the Senate is well known, yet the timing of his endorse­ ment to follow his nomination for vice-presidency, adds tremendous im­ portance to his statement. Its effect upon other members of the House and Senate will be pronounced. This bold stroke has planted the Townsend Plan squarely in the midd'e of the national elections this fall. Re­ reverberations are expected frem ev? cry Congressional district and firm stands on the bill will quickly mater­ ialize. With fine emphasis, McNary stat­ ed, “In my opinion Senate BUI 3255, introduced by Sen. Downey of Califor­ nia, is a sincere attempt to have the national government insure all citi­ zens a comfortable retirement annu­ ity when the age of sixty is reached.” Obviously delighted with the turn of events, Dr. Townsend stated, "We are well on the road to victory. SenMcNary's support gives a new impe­ tus to the o ganization and our en­ tire membership will feel e renewed surge of confidence." As the news of McNary’s endorse­ ment struck Capitol Hi'l, telegrams flew—hurried conferences were held —betting odds changed and cam­ paigns were revised. Vast import­ ance is placed upon Sen. McNary’s endorsement by leading political ob­ servers in all parts of the nation. Knowing that most of the Congres­ sional posts will be hotly contested, as will that of the Presidency itself, they point out that solid Townsend support may be the deciding factor in many states and districts. "McNary’s action fully justifies the long battle of the Townsend organiza­ tion," Dr. Townsend stated. “It proves that the people, once a-oused in a just cause, cannot long be de­ nied. It is obvious to all that the general spread of buying power can­ not be long delayed and it has be­ come lncreasing*y apparent that the logical source of this new buying power must come th ough our senior citizens." In the meantime, Townsend clubs are concentrating their efforts on all Congressional candidates. Every candidate who has supported the Townsend bill is being given real backing. In other districts and States, the stand and background of each man is being carefully checked before approval is made. McNary's support comes at a vital time. With enactment of the Townsend bid in sight, members are redoubling their efforts to insure an overwhelm­ ing passage of the bill at the next session of Congress.

Townsend today told how the endorsement of the Townsend Plan by Sen. Charles L. McNary came about "I arranged to sec the Senator last time I was in Washington." Dr. Townsend said. "We had a very friendly visit I told him that we wanted a statement from him on our Plan and I outlined what we would consider a minimum statement. "The Senator to'd me that he would go along the whole way in his support. He added that he would give his support to Sen. Downey’s Senate Bill 3255 rather than the House Bill 8264, out of loyalty to his own legislative body.

The Nashville School To Open September 10 By Gene ADeman Decentralization of the 1940 presi­ dential campaign will be one result of the federal Hatch Act limiting na­ tional committee expenditures to $3.­ 000,000. Michigan party leaders have been advised not to look to national head­ quarters for financial aid. If money is to be spent tn Michigan to re-eiect President Roosevelt or to elect Wen­ dell L. Willkie, then it must be Mich­ igan-raised funds. ■ The Republican national committee has relayed word that Willkie in­ sists on a strict compliance to the spirit of the Hatch Act. and when you recall that the Republicans in 1936 spent $8,893,000 to the Demo­ crats' $5,651,000, this “purity in poli­ tics*' restriction begins to hurt. Hen­ ry P. Fletcher, counsel for the Repub­ lican National committee, has opined that the law's limit of $3,000,000 per campaign and $5,000 per individual contribution applied only to national committees. Willkie, a newcomer in politics, brushed aside the Fletcher opinion with a flat declaration that “all” campaign expenditures should not exceed the three million mark. It left politicians gasping. One net result, as already noted, will be the placing of more financial responsibility on the state central committee of the two leading parties. National and regional headquarters will lend a helping hand and free ad­ vice, but that's about all. Pay-roll Prohibition. In several respects the 1940 cam­ paign will establish historic prece­ dents. First, we have the astounding sit­ uation whereby a former Democrat is running for president on the Repub­ lican ticket, while a former Republi­ can is nominee for vice-president on the Democratic ticket Other evi­ dences of coalition in politics are the participation by two staunch Repub­ licans—Stimson and Knox—in the Roosevelt cabinet at Washington. (Willkie-baiter Ickes was a Roosevelt Progressive in 1912.) Senator Van­ denberg's pe:sistent cry for coalition in 1940 has a strange echo in con­ temporary events. This daring disregard for tradition­ al party responsibility has secretly disturbed many Michigan party diehards. Verily, the parties of Lincoln and Jackson would not recognize them­ selves in 1940! Second, we have the reverse of the customed order of politics wherein pay-: o 1 employees are expected to carry the torch. The Hatch Act, which was supported vigorously by President Roosevelt, makes it a vio lation for any one of the nearly 1,­ 000,000 federal government employees to engage in political activity. This extends even to state departments which receive federal aid from Wash­ ington. It prompted the resignation of G. Don Kennedy as Michigan dep­ uty highway commissioner for the duration of the vote-getting drive. Kennedy is one of 500,000 employees in state governments who are thus affected. Politicians cannot make use of the “per cent club” device whereby a percentage of pay-roll salaries is col­ lected monthly for political purposes. This once was a time-honored source of raising campaign funds, dignifiefid in Indiana by Paul Mc­ Nutt, now federal administrator of so cial security act. It has been used in Michigan in the past by both Repub­ licans and Democrats. The founda­ tions of political machines are pay­ roll workers. Individual Donations. The $5,000 ceiling on individual do­ nations is not expected to work any hardship on Michigan state central committees. Neither is the "restric­ tion” of $3,000,000 for the state cam­ paign. for there isn't a Chinaman’s chance of raising even one-tenth of this amount. A third restriction makes it a vio­ lation for any contractor doing work for the federal government to con tribute any amount to a political par­ ty. Here is a reform extraordinary, as any politician will admit. If it were extended into Michigan state pclitics, campaign funds would prob­ ably have to be put on a public sub­ sidy basis unless citizens came to the rescue with greater pocketbook par­ ticipation in party affairs. There is no question but that the ideal state of political affairs would he a willingness of all citizens to make individual party contributions. This would entail not only a desire to vote in the primary election, when good government is actually deter ­ mined, but in the November election when the choice of future officials is usually narrowed down to two ma­ jor parties.

In our bodies God through which we become conscious of and know the world about us. Then He has given us a soul through which we know our kind. “God breathed into Adam’s nostrils the breath of life and man became a liv­ ing souL” Genesis 2:7. When God gave Adam a spirit, he became God-conscious. Through this spirit he knew God. Through the same spirit God could manifest Mimsself to Adam. He freely talked with Adam and Eve. When Adam and Eve fen, this spirit was marred by sin. Its eyes and cars became dull. Sin going on in the human race has WTought an awful work until the spirit Is blind and deaf to the things of God. Even worse la the fact that the natu-al heart hates God, resents His authority, resents His requests and thinks His plan of salvations Is foolishness. The natural heart, where God should be loved and honored, and where sweet and joyous fellowship with God should exist, has been filled with pride, envy, temper, covetous­ ness, lust, hatred, ma'lce and worse of all, unbelief. God must of neces­ sity cut Himself away from this na­ ture Itempie. This temple must be emptied, cleansed and renewed before there can be any communion or co­ operation between God and man. God's plan is to let Jesus Christ, His Son, take a human body and live in it without sin—-to make His body in which, God says, the fullness of the Godhead dwelt (Col. 2:9) In the perfect person of Jesus, God and man Because we have so terribly failed in being the temple God desired, Christ, in that dark and awful hour, buried rin behind the back of God foGod turned His back upon His own Son and let Him become sin for ua. Jesus cried, ‘It is finished." Re­ all the old and rose again with a new life. He came from the grave the damogogic utterances that flew wide of their mark and counteracted not the slightest the fact that a new leader in American life was introduc­ ed in the acceptance speech at El­ wood last Saturday. In that speech Mr. Willkie came for­ ward as a confident, fearless leader, sidestepping no issues and pulling no punches. He laid down his political philosophy and sounded the rallying cry for his campaign;—the preserva­ tion of American democracy. He called for a united America, a people working together irrespective of par­ ty, creed or economic position. To him America is still the land of op­ portunity but Americans must stand on their own feet and work and fight for it He honestly tells the people that the years ahead are to be ones of toil and sacrifice, if the country and its institutions are to be preserved. The America of the future, he knows, cannot be isolated from the rest of the world but nevertheless Americans have the right to live as they please. Peace, he tells the na­ tion, cannot be guaranteed for peace depends on what some other country does. Therefore he has no long-time program to define the relationship of America to the rest of the world; rathe- only a general principle. That principal he declares in these words: "I would do everything to defend American democracy and I would re­ frain from doing anything to injure it” He arraigns the New Deal on a charge of failing to help the country, asserting that fantastic sums of public money have been spent to lift the standard of living and that the standard of living instead of being improved has fallen. Reforms have been undertaken, he says, but in most cases they have served only to re­ strict productivity. The measures instead of creating new wealths have only divided up the wealth already existing. That same philosophy was carried to its ultimate conclusion, he warns, in the destruction of a free France. He frankly tells the nation that he is a former Democrat turned against the leadership of that party because its New Deal not only has failed but threatens true American democracy. He tells the nation that he is descend­ ed from Germans who came to Amer­ ica to escape tyranny. He likewise tells that he is a former executive of a successful utility.

Those with Republican sentiments are more inclined to follow their ow*. party speakers. Who ever heard cf a Republican attending a Democratic rally? Who ever heard of a Demo­ crat attending a Republican rally? Back in 1858 Abraham Lincoln and Stephen Douglas engaged In a series of debates while campaigning for the Illinois Senatorship. It was his showing in these debates that lifted Lincoln to national prominence. Two years later in 1860 Lincoln was elect­ ed to the Presidency when he again was opposed by Douglas. In the light of history the Lincoln-Douglas debates served the country well. The possibility of joint debates has been eliminated but the campaign nevertheless will be a vigorous one. It could be nothing else with so vigorous a man as Mr. Willkie conduct­ Ing oi^f side of it. It will be dignlfied, too, so far as Mr. Willkie is concemed.—Adrian Daily Telegram. “Rest In The No difficult human Lord.” situation can present itself in daily exper­ ience which cllnnot be harmoniously adjusted through intelligent reliance upon the perfect law of God. Silently, yet with divine precision, this ever­ active law, correctly applied, will bring to light the healing solution to any disturbing problem. The solu­ tion may become instaantly apparent ’in the twinkling of an eye” (I Cor­ inthians 15:52), or time may seem to be required for complete adjustment, but ultimate success is sure if we stand fast and trust all to God. in full obedience to the counsel of the Psalmist (Psalms 37:7), “Rest In the Lord, and wait patiently for him.” Christian Science, the divine mes­ sage from God to humanity, the one and only true Science, directs men to tu’-n ever in full confidence to God for daily protection and help. It re­ veals the real man as God-created, God-endowed, God-sustained, hence, forever perfect, spiritual, immortal. The true man, made in the image of God, exists forever untouched by seeming evil, for the creation of di­ vine Love expresses nothing unlike its perfect Principle. 'Die declaration (Genesis 1:31), stands forever: “God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good.” In the Christian Science textbook. Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, Mary Baker Eddy writes (p. 379), “The real jurisdiction of the world is in Mind, controlling every ef­ fect and recognizing all causation as vested in divine Mind.” When we grasp the spiritual truth that infinite Mind fills all space, hence, what is named matter has no real substance or existence, we understand why we are wise and safe in trusting divine intelligence to solve our human prob­ lems, to fulfill our right desires, to satisfy our inmost yearnings for peace, happiness and harmony. It the Bible it Is written (Exodus 23:20), “Behold, I send an Angel be­ fore thee, to keep thee in the way. and to bring tuee into the place which I have prepared.” We may not always be humanly aware of God's unceasing direction and guid­ ance; nevertheless, as a loved hymn tells us (Christian Science Hymns', No. 86): "... God is on the field, although He seems invisible.” In this connection the following inciden is helpful. A man addicted to heavy drinking wandered, one even­ ing into a hall where a lecture on Christian Science was in progress. He was somewhat intoxicated, but in spite of his clouded mental condition, be became interested in what the B]>eaker said, and remained until the end cf the lecture. Upon returning STATE DAWN PATROL, BATTLE CREEK, SEPT. 1 The Dawn Patrol, an organization of Michigan aviators, will visit Kel­ logg airport. Battle Creek, Sunday, Sept 1. The visit is being arranged by the Battle Creek Chamber of Com­ merce and the girls' flying club at the local airport When the patrol visit­ ed Battle Creek last year there were more than 70 airplanes in the flight, and approximately 115 members at­ tended the meeting of the patrol. On Sunday the patrol, led by its origina­ tor, Ken Morey of Adrian, were to visit Owosso, for breakfast given him. As he pondered what he read, he suddenly realized that he was nearer to finding God than he had ever been In his life. He began to perceive that as-a child of God he could not possibly be enslaved by any unrighteous influence. Within a week he gave up a'l indulgence in li­ quor, and eventually received a com­ plete and permanent healing. He be­ came a consecrated student of Chris­ tian Science. What are we to do when faced with unhappy conditions when matter and its accompanying discords ap­ pear not only very real, but actually threatening? We must turn com­ pletely to divine intelligence for de­ liverance. We must prayerfully reach out to ever-present Love for courage, inspiration, and guidance. We must stand firm and unshaken in the understanding that God reigns in spite of what may seem overwhelm­ ing evidence to the contrary. He will not fail us. In Isaiah (65:24) we read. “It shall come to pass, that be­ fore they call. I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.” The established practice of devot­ ing a period each day to the contem­ plation of God’s allness and perfection and of man’s inseparability from God, will do much in helping us to over­ come our belief in the reality of evil, I and fear of if. When we refuse to let thoughts of imperfection, lack, discouragement, resentment, jealousy rule in .our consciousness, turning rather to' divine Love for protection and direction, we shall find that out­ ward conditions begin to improve. We need never let the noisy tumult of the carnal mind, with its unreal, ma­ licious suggestions, influence our thinking. We must keep close to God in all that we do and say and think. Then, and then only, can we rightly claim as ours the Scriptural promise (Prov. 1:33), “Whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil” We can endeavor always to express the Christi ike graces of patience, honesty, faith in good, uprightness, purity, kindness, selflessness. Such endea­ vor brings rich reward. God does not sanction anything that would cause His children to Buf­ fer or be afraid. When we turn to Him in full confidence, with childlike faith in His ability to help and pro­ tect, we find deliverance.—Christian Science Monitor. ••We win appreciate me prompt payment of you:- ruhwiption.

Ready mix trucks, which are regular trucks with cement mixers mounted on tiicm. will be used in the concrete work. 1 The trucks will be driven under the batching hopper where the correct amount of gravel and sand will be dumped in the mixer; next they will be driven to a platform where bags of cement will be added and at still another platform water will be added to the mixer. The cement mixers then will be started and by the time the truck reaches a building nite where founda­ tions are to be poured the -ement will be mixed The first concrete work Friday was to be handled from the Battle Creek Gravel Co., but the trucks were to begin receiving their concrete loads at the fort as soon as facilities were completed there. Max Pearse, a vice president of Owen. Ames & Kimball, contractors for the project, said a new railroad siding would be’constructed to the building operations site by Monday to facilitate shipment of building mater­ ials. The siding will extend from the present fort rail spur to the large field in front of the Veterans Ad­ ministration facility, just north of old US-22, and will have a capacity of 30 freight cars. At one end of the siding, power saws will be installed to cut lumber into proper lengths for the bcildlngs. Mr. Pearse said a bank of floodlights would be installed near the saws so they could be oper­ ated at night if necessary. The oth­ er end of the siding will be used to unload lumber which wil! be delivered in the proper lengths and will not re­ quire any sawing. The contractors estimate it will require 600 carloads of lumber to erect the 348 buildings covered by the project .—Approximately three hundred Kiwanians attended the stag picnic at Miller's grove, Eaton Rapids.

American Way erf Life,"‘ George E. Sokolaky tells a thrilling story of the march of American progress. "Now,” he writes, "we approach the Age of Chemistry; of the use of metals and salts and gases; of the transmution of woods into a thousand cloths; of milk into metallic and glasslike materials as strong as steel and as light as paper. “Why is it that the American peo­ ple, even for a moment, permit them­ selves to believe ‘ that there will be nothing new under the Bun, when ev­ ery day the industrialist is working upon absolutely new conceptions ? What will television do for us? What effect will the manufacture of Neo­ prene—a rubberlike substance made from coal, limestone, salt and water —have upon our economy? What will Chemurgy do to our agriculture? Today’s automobile soon will ge out­ moded—what will the experiments now under way produce? “We are not at the endrof our tethof new discoveries, of a new life.”The Silver Lining. To the editorial desk has been cqming, with the compliments of the German Library of Information in New York, a series of brochures and leaflets titled "Facts in Review," the substance of which originates in Ber­ lin. Every newspaper office in this country is sent this propaganda, and recently there was circulated by the nazi propagandists a six hundred page volume called “Documents on the Events Preceding the Outbreak of War.” As might be expected this material is typical nazi propaganda, combin­ ing truths, half-truths and falsehoods so adroitly that if the reader is not on his guard the material seems au­ thentic. The German Library of Information has been exposed time and again as the German propaganda ^headquar­ ters in the United States. Supported by funds from Berlin, the Library contains, beneath its deceptive aca­ demic front, a vast machine for spreading the nazi doctrines and viewpoints. Huge funds for the cir­ culation of its material are available, and in Germany the Library is con­ sidered one of the most important arms of the nazi octopus. The mate-lai of the German Li­ brary achieves what newspapers term “complete coverage.” There is no city of any good size, no newspaper, club or organization of any import­ ance that does not receive its periodic releases of propaganda. At times like these it is well to look hard at the nazi activities in this country. Fortunately most Amer­ icans will take the propaganda for what it is. It is interesting to con­ sider, though, just what would hap­ pen if a similar "American Library of Information" were working out of Berlin. Nazi Propagaada. The Grand Run-around. We've heard and read much recently about the reasons why the defense program is getting nowhere, why it has bogged down until, des­ pite the $15,000,000,000 appropriatedI for Defense few contracts for any­ thing actually have been placed in the hands of manufacturers so they may go ahead with the construction of the equipment necessary. Arthur Krock. Washington corres­ pondent for the New York Times, in his pe'sonal column gives a clear pic­ ture of the reasons why no real ac­ tion follows the appropriations of the many billions of dollars. The De­ fense program has no head other than the President, no co-ordinator to bring together the various bureaus and de­ partments and what have you so that a contract may be let and the wheels of manufacture actually get started. Mr. Krock takes the experience of a Chicago manufacturer whom he calls' plant which is admirably equipped for the construction of advanced train­ ing plane® for the air service. Not. all the necessary alterations, his en- 1873 Ltd gineers and other experts told him. Naturally, Mr. A went to Washington to place his proposal before the prop­ er authorities. Mr. A first went to the Advisory Commission. He was received joyful­ ly. He is just the type of man and manufacturer they're looking fo-. His proposal is good. But—The Advisory Commission is only advisory, can’t let contracts. Mr. A must go to the War Department. Mr. A goes to the War-Department Again he is received joyfully. Just the man and maufacturcr they want. They look over his blue prints and a'l else. All is fine. But—The War De­ partment has no authority unless the Advisory Commission approves the contracts. The War DepL suggests that Mr. A go to the Advisory Com­ mission. But Mr. A has been there but was Bent to the War Dept. Mr. A goes to the Civil Aeronautics Bureau. Again, they're glad to sec him. His proposition looks fine. But —The scope of the Bureau does not extend to this type of training. A call at the Navy Dept brings the same results as the call at the War Dept. Finally, Mr. A, dizzy with the run-around, finds one officer who sug­ gests that he go ahead, transform his plant and start building planes. Then if the planes are satisfactory, the Army and the Navy ,one or both may order some, provided they can get the approval of the Advisory Commission, a clearance from the Budget Bureau and a few other bureaus, commission­ ers, departments, etc. Mr. A at last decided from what he had heard that only one man. the President, could give him the “Go” sign. He sought to see the President He never even dented the outer guard. So Mr. A packed up his blue prints and his proposals and went back to Chicago waiting until the President sees fit to leCgo the reins himself and name a co-ordinator who will cut through some of the buck-passing and give a man with a legitimate pro­ posal a chance to do something for his country.—Grand Rapids Herald.

The necessity for a President to be able to lead his party is obvious. Equally obvious is the need for a Presidential candidate to assume the leadership and compose the differences of his party. Tliat Mr. Willkie is doing. His persuading of. Senator McNary to become the vice presidential candidate and of Joseph Martin to accept the party's national chairmanship were evidence of that. But Mr. Lippman said that Mr. Willkie’s party leadership to date had been weak because he had not de­ monstrated his ability to bring Mr. McNary, the Republican leader in the Senate, and Mr. Martin, Republican House leader, firmly behind the prin­ cipals of conscription and aid to Brit­ ain wnich he endorsed in his accept­ ance address. In considering that criticism it should be kept in mind that the Republican organization in Congress, which Mr. Lippman com­ pla ns has adopted "an isolationist and almost • pacifist attitude," had done bo before the Philadelphia ccjnvention that nominated Mr. Willkie. What happened in Mr. Willkie’s nomination has been commented on before, but it still must be considered. He was not the choice of the Repub­ lican organization. His nomination came from grass roots sentiment. This also must be kept in mind: Mr. Willkie in his acceptance speech went ingly prove that when God is known NASHVILLE MARKETS beyond the party's platform adopted and acknowledged to be the loving Following are prices tn Nashville at Philadelphia and declared his own Father of all, ever supplying His be­ markets on Wednesday, Sept. 4. at policies on two issues—aid to Britain loved children with boundless good, the hour The News goes to pr-'ss.

Owen, Ames A Kimball of Grand Rapids, contractor for the $2,000,000 Fort Custer construction project, won a second contract Friday with a low bid of $382,000 for erection of a 350bed hospital at the fort. The hoepital group will include 26 buildings to be erected on the south side of old US-12 near Eagle lake where the wartime Custer base hospi­ tal stood. • D. W.

As in the $2,000,000 contract the hospital plans call for completion within 90 days. The Grand Rapids firm’s bid was the loxvest of eight submitted to Capt. E. C. Hayden, constructing quartermaster. M . Kimball sa d his firm would begin working on the hospital group immediately, using the same facilities constructed for work on the barrack building program. A rail siding, ce­ ment plant and other necessary equip­ ment already have been installed at tiie fort. Included in the hospital group are 12 ward buildings, each with a capac­ ity of 33 men; four hospital barracks; three hospital quarters, one with a mess attached; one enlisted men’s mess; one administration building; one clinic building; two storehouses; a morgue and a heating plant LIBRARIANS, BOARD MEMBERS IN CONFERENCE SEPT. 5-6 Librarians and Library Board mem­ bers of Barry county will meet for an Encampment at St Ma-y’s camp near Battle Creek this Thursday and Fri­ day, Sept. 5 and 6.

Sometimes I cannot seem to sec The wisdom of God's way, And yet I trust His loving hand To guide me through each day. Though darkest shadows fall about And make my path obscure, One thing I know: God holds my hand; Of His dear care I’m sure. I feel his presence always near; Together wc shall stand. And faith shall be my strong sup­ port, x Because God holds my hand. —Rose Skinner in Daily Word. ‘•God Coming The God of phliosoTo Earth” phy does not exist. The God of the Bible has always peen the Father, and the Son and the Holy Ghost; the Three in One, the One in Three. "Can't I be­ lieve in God,” asks someone, “without believing in Jesus Christ?" You can­ not think of His character or find out anything about Him without Jesus Christ. Jesus is the revelation of God. Jesus Christ is the exhibit, the manifestation of God himself. •It pleased'God (the Father) that in Him should all fulness dwell" (Col. 1: 19) and “In Him dwelleth all the fulness of the godhead bodily” (Col. 2: 9*. Every quality of Deity vwas in Christ Jesus. The Christ who is the Head and re­ turning King is God. He is Creator. He stood there by the water’s edge and fed 5,000 men with five loaves and two small fiPhea. The God who broke off the stars and threw them out is the same God who was stand­ ing there breaking the bread and fish. He stood there at the tomb of Laz­ arus and called, "Lazarus, come forth,” and Lazarus came forth. It is the same God who said to Nathanael, "I saw you while you were under the fig tree,” miles away. And Nathanael looked at Him and said, "You are the Messiah! You are God!" Nobody could see Nathanael that far but God. He is the All-See­ ing One. Discard every other god on earth and all the other philosophies— Jesus is God. Emanuel. God wit> us. And now this Christ who died and rose has come through the Holy Ghost to be Christ within all who will receive Him, He has come to be with­ in, the hope of glory. Jesus is the Resurrection and the Life. We speak of a world to be redeemed. He is the world’s redemption. This Person has been among us and He is coming again. He can handle all the questions that perplex the world. He can even handle the death Situation. Are you in Him? Is He in you? God helps you to know this blessed Christ whom to know is Life! Your every "How?" will be an­ swered by this blessed "Who.” "Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness.” Colossians 1:13 —Today's Gospel Truth, by Irving G. Wahlstrom. Prof. Wirt In the discussion about Told When, the third term and where it came from and when it originated, it is likely that the original discoverer of it, and his forecast of it, will be overlooked. Things happen so radily and so many of them keep happening, that it is easy to forget an incident like that of Dr. Wirt, the public school man of Gary, Ind., who came to atten­ tion in a remote and somewhat quiet day. It is dow said that the third term grows out of emergency develop­ ments in Europe and the impact of those developments upon America. In other words, it's Hitler who has re­ quired a third term of us. That’s not what Dr. Wirt found, and Dr. W’irt made his discoveries long before Hitler had demonstrated any emergencies in Europe—long be­ fore there was war or serious talk of war. Dr. Wirt, a quiet and unassuming and unsophisticated man from the back country, went down to Wash­ ington and spent some time visiting around and seeing the sights. This was at the outset of the new deal. Out of what he saw and heard, out of the talk which went on in the groups ■with which be traveled—Dr. Wirt cried out in horror and amazement He said there was a deliberate, con­ fident, cock-sure plan on among the young intellectuals to discard the American system as old, outmoded, old-fashioned—and set up a new re­ gime whose plans and specifications came from their own eager and ex­ perimenting minds. Such a program would, of course, discard an antithird-term tradition as being a horseand-buggy hangover and not worthy the respect of the modem college so­ phistication and zest for adventure. And such a program would plan per­ manency in office and control for its new dispensation. Professor Wirt's alarmed announce­ ment that such control, such revo­ lutionary departures, such fastening of a continuing change upon the country was planned and programed, was greeted from Washington with derision and from the country with incredulity. Many things have happened since then.—Clipped. ------ o------ meat Into effect and has Informed the nation as to the details of it.

MURDER TIPSTER IS ATTACK VICTIM State police and county authorities investigated the slugging on a Plain­ well street of William Howard, whose tip to officers aided them in finding the body of Mrs. Emma Travis Miller, 57 year old Kalamazoo widow, re­ cently. Howard told officers his assailant stepped from behind a tree five blocks west of the Plainwell business sec­ tion as Howard was walking home Sunday night, and struck him on the forehead with a blunt weapon. State Police Detective P. H. Hinck­ ley of the Paw Paw post said Howard suffered no concussion or fracture, and was not severely injured. The body of Mrs. Miller was found north of her farm on the AlleganBarry county line a week after she disappeared. Calvin Wagner, 54, ten­ ant on the farm, is awaiting appear­ ance in Barry circuit court. Sheriffs of Kalamazoo and Barry counties said he admitted striking Mra. Miller a fatal blow during an argument over his management of the farm. Howard, a Plainwell resident who formerly was employed on the Miller farm, told officers searching for Mrs. Miller where there were likely hiding places. Following his suggestions, of­ ficers found the body near Silver lake. McClelland Reunion. The 22nd annual McClelland reun­ ion was held at Thomapple lake Sun­ day, Sept 1.

FAST GRANDS CLUB TO MEET SEPT. 18 Mrs. Adah Murray is entertaining the Past Grands club of the Rebekah lodge on Wednesday, September 18. Tremendous Expansion Seen For Fort Custer May iMipHrate Prearnt Construction Project. Airport For -Air Corps Ov•ervatioa Squadron Of 5th Div. Cong. Shafer has revealed that the War Dept is cons dering the ass gnment of a second full motorized in­ fantry division to Fort Custer in addi­ tion to the Fifth Division al eady or­ dered there, and the proposal would mean the duplication nf the 53,500,000 construction project now under way to provide quarto s for the men of the Fifth Division which would probably extend the building project through­ out the winter. Well over 1,000 bar­ racks, warehouses, and other build­ ings would be needed to house th. two divisions. Government housing there and in the Kalamazoo area would be another almost certain development, Mr. Shai er said, to take care of civilian em­ ploye and officer needs. While the Fort Custer expansion is in the tentative stage. Mr. Shafer made the definite announcement that Kellogg airport has been selected as the base for an air co ps observation squadron wh'ch will be attached to the Fifth Division. Mr. Shafer said, "The war depart­ ment announced that Fort Custe . has been designated as a station for one squadron of corps and division avia­ tion observation and this squadron will be intimately attached to the mo­ torized Fifth Division and will take its station there immediately following the arrival of the division. WPA funds were requested by the war de­ partment to extend the runways and put the airport in condlion as an ob­ servation co:,ps station. Officers of the general staff will make an inven­ tory to ascertain the full needs with­ in a few days. These needs will mean hangars and quarters and no doubt the acquisition of some additional land. A definite project fo- these im­ provements is expected to be drafted within the next few days." Woth the contemplated stationing of a second mechanized division at Fort Custer, a second aerial squadron would be stationed at Lindbergh field ifi Kalamapoo, M-. Shafer said. KaULmazoo has already submitted a 5580,000 WPA project for improve­ ment of its airport In revealing the contemplated con­ centration of anothe- division at Fort Custer Mr. Shafer said: -‘I confident­ ly predict that the fort will be devel­ oped into the most important military base in the north central states.” He said if present plans were perfected the fort would be garrisoned with at least 22,000 troops,, with which will be numerous civilian employes, in va~ious crafts and trades. None of the plans thus far contemplated for Fort Custer has taken into consideration the possibility of consc iption. The fort almost certainly would be the training ground for part of the con­ script army, boosting the garrison to an unknown number. The announcement concerning Kel­ logg airport followed a survey of the field last week by an army boa*d of three officers. Basing of the squad­ ron there will mean construction of bararcks and othen buildings near the aiport to proride for 250 men and 35 officers, as well as a hangar, radio “ station and othen facilities. Improvements to the field itself would include construction of new runways with minimum lengths of 4,500 feet, new lights and other pro­ jects. Additional land needed for the expansion probably will be purchased by the city. Whether the federal government will aid in acquisition of any additional land has not been de­ termined. The cost of enough land to expand the airport to a mile square would be between 530,000 and 540.000. Plans for still another army project there- a new highway linking Fort Custer with Battle Creek and Kala­ mazoo, were going forward Saturday. The new highway, announced in Washington last week by Mr. Shafer, would coat an estimated 51,500,000. CHURCH NOTES Thr Methodtit Church. Kenneth Griswold, Minister. Phone 2391 September 15. 1940.

And the lad came beck, but not *s * lad; a half century had elapsed since Carlos F. Hurd, then small son of the then Congregational minister, Rev. Fayette Hurd, had stood on a box at the 'type cases in the office of The Nashville News, published then by the o iginal owner. Omo Strong, father of his chum, Dale Strong. He returned last Friday, not as a hand type setter, but with a background of 40 years with the SL Louis Post Dis­ patch, St. Lou!s, Mo., foj a brief call at the scene of his early labor, and hopes of seeing some of his playmate friends of those earlier happier days of his father’s pastorate here. 1887­ 1889. Len Felghner, who later bought The News of Mr. Strong, was work­ ing here, and M . Hurd recalled he learned more from him than anyone else. His work on the SL Louis Poet Dispatch is with the editorial depart­ ment. Mr. and M s. Hurd had been on a motor trip up the St. Lawrence River country to Montreal, and he came back to Dertoit and Michigan enroute home. A 6500 mile motor trip covering 18 days and through 13 states with no car or tire trouble with the exception ot a vapor lock on a Rocky Mountain peak, 12,000 feet above sea level—is the record made by M~r and Mrs. George Hoffman of Maple Grove and their son and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Merle Hoffman of Det oit. who made a trip to the Pacific Coast in Merle Hoffman's new Nash car. A ranger knew just what to do and in 10 m'nutes they were on their way again. Thei!- Pacific Coast trip wasn't made to attend the Golden Gate Exposition. They were out to see the beauties of nature and they saw them every­ where they went, and liad a most wonderful time. They drove over both the Golden Gate and San Francisco Bay b ddgf*. were down in a sea lion cave and saw the lions in their habitat, hundreds of them, enjoyed the beaches. Yellow­ stone Park and its beauties of nature including its Grand Canyon, the gey­ sers, the mountains and except fon the ascent the scenic ones, the Bad Lands and Black Hills. And, oh yes, they got lost; they made the wrong turn in the Black Hills and wound up at Grand View Point, and there found two Chicago lads who were doing the world as cheaply as possible and cov­ ering as much te.ritory as they could with their un-recent car. They all found they way back together. The Hoffman party stopped at the most modem overnight cabins, but did not get their own meals; they were on “vacation," no farm work, no house­ work. They mentioned eating break­ fast in Reno, which is the mecca for the socialites seeking easy divorce. Mr. and Mrs. Hoffman are Hable to start out again. They found they could go and yet find everything all right on their jjturn. They voiced but one regret regarding the trip— they would have liked more time.

Jean Smith And nt»burgh Girl Received Injuries. Rarely if ever has the Nashville community been'to shocked and sad­ dened as by the automobile crash of Thursday, in which Jeanne Brown, popular young daughter of Mrs. Bes­ sie Brown of Nashville, and Mrs. Arch Russell of Chicago, a guest of Miss Brown's aunt. Mrs. Stewart Lofdahl, were fatally injured, and Miss Jean Smith, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. Robert Smith of Nashville and very popular, and Miss Helen Culley of Pittsburgh, Penn., guest of Miss Brown, received lesser injuries. The accident happened late Thurs­ day afternoon, 14 miles southwest of Hastings, when the Smith car, driven by Jean Smith, plunged down a 10foot embankment and crashed Into a tree when crowded from the highway by an oncoming car on county road 426. near a curve. The driver of the other car may not have been aware of the accident due to the road dust They were enroute to Gun lake where Miss Brown’s uncle. Dr. Lof­ dahl. is building a cottage, for a steak roast and had lost their way by mak­ ing a wrong turn. They were within four miles of Gun lake at the time of the accident and Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Lofdahl had reached the lake, expecting to find the party already there. Dr. Lofdahl was also at the lake, and was to provide speed boat rides. They were located at the lake after the accident Mr. and Mrs. Smith did not learn of the accident until they arrived home from De­ troit The Smiths with Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Olin had been attending the ball game and were on their way home, so could not be reached until their return. First to arrive on the accident scene were Howard Wilcox and broth­ er, riding on a load of hay. One of them located a telephone and called for ambulances and physicians, pre­ paratory to extricating Miss Brown and Mrs. Russell from the wrecked car and removing them to Pennock hospital, where Miss Brown died ear­ ly in the evening, and Mrs. Russell in the early hours of the next morning. Lewis Hine, Hastings music instruct­ or, brought Miss Smith and Miss Culley to the hospital. Miss Smith suffered head injuries, general bruis­ es and cuts, and Miss Culley severe cuts and bruises. Jean was brought ■ home on Friday, and has been taken to Grand Rapids several times since, plastic surgery being necessary for a broken nose. Miss Culley returned to Pittsburgh with her folks, who came for the Brown funeral. Remains of Miss Brown and Mrs. Russell were brought to the Hess Funeral Home and prepared for bur­ ial. Mrs. Russell was the wife of Dr. Arch Russell of Chicago and had been married less than a year. She was here on a visit to Mrs. Lofdahl. who was a classmate. Dr. Russell, called from Chicago, arranged for the remains to be sent to Chicago. Jeanne Brown was the daughter of Mrs. Bessie Brown, and Dr. C. K. Brown, deceased, and was bom in Nashville on April 13, 1920. She graduated from the Nashville school with the Class of 1937, and has since attended the University of Michigan where she had an excellent scholastic record. This was to have been her senior year and she planned to go on to Yale University at New Haven, Conn. She was a member of the Al­ pha Tau Phi fraternity. Her admir­ able qualities of mind and character were appreciated at college as at home. Everyone liked Jeanne. Surviving are the mother; one bro­ ther, Carl Brown, naval aviator, of Pensacola, Florida who came through ta Battle Creek by a transport plane for the services; the grandmother. Mrs. Anna Lofdahl; her uncle, Dr. Stewart Lofdahl and family, of Nash­ ville; and an aunt, Mrs. Mears of Wil­ mette, Hl., who have the sympathy of the community. Funeral services were arranged for Sunday at 2 p. m. from the Hess Funeral Home, and they were largely attended. Rev. W. C. Bassett of the Evangelical church, of which Jeanne had been a member since 12 years of age, officiated, and recorded pipe or­ gan selections were given. There was a wealth of lovely floral tributes. Burial was made in Lakevie w ceme­ tery. and the bearers were Paul Dia­ mante, LouIb Kraft Richard Brumm, Paul Pennock.

The parcels are those which were not sold at the state's first “scavenger” sale, held in February. The lands to be offered at the salvage sale reverted to the state in Novembr, 1939, for delinquent state and county taxes of 1935 and prior years, and were placed on the public auction list in February at a minimum price of 25 per cent of the 1938 assessed value of the land. Although 700 parcels were advertised, only 107 were actually auctioned off, Miss Maloney explained. Many were withheld for inability to pay because of being on relief or for errors in the assessment figures. —A number of motorists at Ionia, believing they were being patriotic by displaying American flag windahield stickers on their autos, have been embarrassed by being called fifth columnists instead.

Sheriff Leslie Murphy said Wednesday that after several persons 'reported these markings and inquired if there might be a secret motive to 1them he made a check of a number ‘of vehicles parked on Main street and carrying sticker flags. Hr said 1 every one of them had the markings * but declared he doubted any inten­ 1 tional defacing or discourtesy to the ’ 1flag was intended. He found that most of the sticker flags had been ob­ 1 1tained at Ionia and in Grand Rapids 1and Lansing areas where they are be­ ing distributed by gasoline companies. 1 Murphy said he believed the so-called "arrows” and ”snake" were supposed to ' represent light reflected from folds 'in the flag and by shadows cast from other parts. He added that although * the markings could understandably raise some question that he believed ithey were inserted quite innocently ।as “some designer’s idea of how to ,make the emblem appear as if it were ।really unfolded to the breeze.” Des­ ।pite this, many of the flag users ■thought the markings a defacement ;and removed the emblems from their windshields until such time as they could get unmarked ones and avoid further accusations of being fifth col­ umnists.

Top honors in oats were won by C. D. Finkbeine - of Clinton on a sam­ ple of Huron outs in what A. A. John­ son, superintendent, and H, R. Petti­ grove, judge, called the finest class of oats ever exhibited at the Fair. The winning sample weighed 47 1-2 pounds to the bushel, far above the standard weight for oats which is 32 pounds. Show samples in Michigan seldom exceed 42 pounds. This is the first year the Huron oat has been in commercial production, as it Is the latest offspring of the plant breeding work at M. S. C. The same variety won four of the five top placings in the open class for quality. In yield the variety’s record again surprised judges and visitors. In the Ira H. Butterfield special class, with awards based on market grade and attested acre yield for at least five acre fields, the Huron oats shown by Robert Reich of Caro placed first with a yield of 116.3 bushels an acre. In this class there were .46 entries. Huron oats took eight of the first 10 awards with yields from 98.7 to the top. The average for the first 10 en­ tries was 104.7 bushels an acre. The Huron oat resuited from breed­ ing wo k carried on cooperatively by the farm crops department of M. 8. C. and the division of cereal crops and diseases of the U. 8. Dept of Agri­ culture and was made available to Michigan farmers in quantity for planting in the sp: ing of 1940. High test weight and immunity- from smut w.th somewhat earlier maturity than other Michigan varieties are charac­ teristics. IT COSTS MONEY TO BRUISE SPUDS Every potato growers who bruises f potato, puts a dent in his own pocket­ book. Whether potatoes are being dug and stored for home use or for sale, the careful handling of the crop is worthwhile, concludes A. J. Bell of the agricultural engineering extension service of M. 8. C. Five principal causes of mechanical injury can all be reduced or even eliminated tests conducted all over the state have shown. With a machine, four of these caus­ es include: digger running too shal­ low, elevators running too fast, drop from elevator to rear attachment, not enough dirt carried on elevator. One test in Marquette county reduced bruising 50 per cent when shakers were padded with inner tubing. Crates for field handling some­ times are unsatisfactory. hSharp corners and throwing are two causes of injury. Then when the crop is dumped eight or 10 feet through a hole in a ceiling onto a concrete floor there is bound to be injury and poor storage. Even a hand digging operation is a source of trouble. City housewives, it is pointed out by Bell, shy away from buying potatoes that have been spear­ ed by a fork in the field. Grading Is another step where care pays more per bushel Some growers in Michigan have discovered it pays to grade as the crop comes out of storage rather than when it goes in. The -kins have had a chance to toughen before they are run over the grader. Damage can result if a grad­ er is operated at too high a speed or constructed with sharp corners. tain experience as instructor in shop subjects or as shop supervisor. - Full information as to the require­ ments for the examinations and ap­ plication fo ms. may be obtained from the Secretary of the U.

With the Democratic ticket already completed and the Republican slate awaiting action at the Grand Rapids state convention opening this Thurs­ day. Sept. 26, the campaign is ex­ pected to get under way vigorously. Wendell Willkie. the Republican standard-bearer, invades Michigan on Monday, Sept 30, for an add ess be­ fore the national convention of the Republican Women's clubs at Olym­ pia in Detroit And despite President Roosevelt's insistence that affairs of state will keep him from political en­ gagements, Chairman Charles Porritt and his helpers haven't given up hope yet that the President may inspect Fort Wayne in Detroit or Selfridge Field at Mt. Clemens on'a national defense trip into the midlanes. Both state headquarters are offic­ ially optimistic, of course. It's going to be a colorful party, if Mr. and Mrs. John Public will only take their minds off the European tug-of-war. Therein is another story. Also, a majorly of the isolationists believe that Germany will win the war. Of possible interest to our wo­ men readers is Dr. Cantrill’s obser­ vation that the Gallup polls show there are more women in this isola­ tionist group than men; also more poor penpie than those who a*e well­ to-do. The younger Americans tend to be­ lieve cynically that the war is largely a contest between the British and Germans over power and wealth rath­ er than over democracy. A second group is made up of the interventionists who, as we enter the fall season, make up a good third of the country’s population. These citi­ zens favor conscription; they fear a German attack on this country. They feel we should go to the limit in help­ ing beleagered England, even at the risk of involvement in the war our­ selves. This group comprises many people over 30 years of age in the upper and middle income groups; they take an educated long-range view, possess g: eater stability of opinion, and are fully aware of the economic conse­ quences of war dislocation.

Nashville high school will play Mid­ dleville here^ Friday at 2:30 p. m. for the first home football game of the season. Last season the Middleville game ended in a 6 to 6 tie and interest is high in the possibilities for a Nash­ ville victory this year.

Dimondale was unable tn gain thru the Nashville line or around the ends. Taking to the air. Dimondale found the way across the Nashville goal line.

VOLUME LXVII Fin Cents the Copy Michigan Mirror By Gene Alleman Wendell L. Willkie and Governor Luren D. Dickinson have one trait in common: Neither man will make a political speech on Sunday. When the Republican presidential nominee greeted audiences from the rear p!atfo:m of his train on a re­ cent Sunday, he said he did not in­ tend to campaign on the Sabbath. Well, Governor Dickinson doesn’t, either. In fact when an Upper Peninsula editor visited the executive office re­ cently, Dickinson remarked he was not going to campaign in an oldfashioned barnstorming way. The editor smiled in agreement, and then asked: “And how was the audi­ ence yesterday (Sunday) at Owosso?” Michigan’s 81 year old executive, who had addressed a Bible Fellowship rally, remarked glowingly that sev­ eral thousand people were present. He said he had “visited’’ with quite a few. For Sunday “visiting” during a po­ litical campaign, Dickinson's tactics are highly effective. He doesn't talk politics. He just emphasizes the value of personal character and pub­ lic morality. You can’t argue with God; nelthecan you accuse the governor of being Insincere. It’s one of those things. 4 ' "In my judgment, there is the key to Dickinson’s popularity." NASHVILLE. MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, OCT. 3, 1940 * HUchl Pa<ee * NUMBER 14.

One of the most impressive and in­ spirational meetings ever held in the Nashville Methodist church took place last Wednesday. Sept 25, when the women’s organizations of this church merged into the Woman's So­ ciety of Christian Service. The ceremony took place in the sanctuary which was beautifully de­ corated with many baskets of yellow and white powers. On a table to the front of the altar rail and in the cen­ ter of the church, was placed a gold cross, on each side of which burned a tall white candle. The program and ritual prepared by the Reorganization committee were carried out comp’etely. Rev. Kenneth Griswold, pastor of the local church, presided. After the call to order he explained the purpose of the meeting. Mrs. Chester Smith read "The New Day.” which was taken from The Guide. The motion to set up the new socie­ ty was passed unanimously, after which Mrs. Kenneth Griswold took charge of the enrollment of members, assisted by Mrs. Ralph Hess and Mrs. Max Caster. As the women came forward in six separate groups to register, hymns were sung softly by the gathering. Mrs. Carl Lentz acted as pianist, and Mrs. W. R. Dean led the singing. Officers of the new society are: President, M-s. C. R. Plumley; vice president. Mrs. Fred Wotring; cor­ responding secretary. Mrs. W. R. Dean; recording secretary, Mrs. Ken­ neth Griswold: treasurer. Mrs. Ed­ ward Hafner. Forty-six names were signed at the charte- meeting as charter members. The names signed, in addition to those of the officers named above, are: Mrs. John Hamp, Mrs. Adolph Kaiser, Mrs. Edith Mayo, Mrs. J. M. Scott. Mrs. Jesse Campbell, Mrs. G-ace Pultz, Mrs. Mabie Powers, Mrs. Linna Tuttle, Mrs. Martha Mae yens, Mrs. Blanche Wright. Mrs. W. H. Reynolds. Mrs. Minnie Cortright, Mrs. Beatrice Wells. M-s.

Mrs. Plumley and Mrs. Edward Hafner were appointed delegates to the con­ ference meet’ng. It was voted to ho’d meetings of the new society in the church on the fourth Thursday of each month. Preceding the charter meeting, a potluck luncheon was served in the Community House, with Mrs. Dorr Webb and Mrs. C. T. Munro in charge of the kitchen. The Philathea class was in charge of the decorations in the church and in the dining room. Rev.

They would, of course, be of value to us if war should come to our shores, but they are of vastly greater value to us in helping to prevent that calamity. The acquisition of the new bases is a departure so momefitnus that it is impossible to appraise Its value and its effects, but some of the more ob­ vious results are the following: 1. It gives us an advanced line fo outpost defense along our whole At­ lantic coast from Labrador to Flor­ ida. Newfoundland is not only of the utmost value against any sea or air attacks from Europe, but would be a source of extreme danger to us if an enemy should establish a base there. Now we are to have one or more bases there which undoubtedly will be made very powerful. Ber­ muda, about 700 miles from New York and Washington, and a base in the Bahamas off the Florida coast, will complete the advance defense of the seaboard. 2. It solves at one stroke the whole problem of our control of the Carib­ bean and the protection of the Pana­ ma canal. For many years our gov­ ernment has felt the urgent need of more defensive points in that region, especially at the extreme east of the Caribbean. Now that dream has sud­ denly come true, and we have all the bases we want and just where we want them—at Antigua, east of Por­ to Rico; at St. Lucia, farther south; a Trinidad close to the Venezuelan ail fields and the gigantic refineries at Aruba; and finally on the South American mainland, in British Guiana to the east of Venezuela. And to complete the plan still farther, we are to have a base in Jamaica, con­ trolling the southern entrance to the Gulf of Mexico. No enemy could get oil from the great fields of Mexico. Venezuela and Colombia against our opposition. 3. These defenses will greatly in­ crease the efficiency of our navy in the Atlantic. They are more valuable than a billion dollars worth of extra ships. With so many bases for air observations and defense, and for submarines and destroyers, the navy will be able to act with much more efficiency, and its radius of action will be pushed much farther eastward in the Atlantic. 4. It will enable us to keep a lar­ ger naval force in the Pacific, and to keep it there with greater conldence. We shall not be in constant fear that it may have to be moved into the Atlanic, leaving Japan undisputed mas­ ter of the Pacific; and if it had to be. the increased security of the Canal would make the transfer much more “Service and The opera hot is made Show." for service, but the silk hat is made for Show, and once it is sat upon it is never quite itself again. There is a great deal of religion these days that is built up like a silk hat? for show. But the religion of the Lord Jesus Christ is for service. See Him stand­ ing there before His disctples slowly removing His clothing. Here is their Teacher, their Master, daring to lay aside His dignity and His marks of superiority and in their presence humbling Himself to the place of a very lowly servant He did not apolo­ gize. An apology is never necessary for working clothes. Jesus' hands were calloused when John baptized Him in Jordan. He had been away from the carpenter's bench but a little while then. Now, in the presence of His chosen follow­ ers, He was stripping Htmself to take the place of the most menial servant, bi a tew hours more He must go to the cross to pay sin's aw­ ful wages, to wade throughfdeath and back again, but before He goes, to become the mightiest of victors He must stop and teach His own this mighty lesson of service. Jesus uses the fact that His dis.ciples are arguing as to who wtll be greatest among them as the occasion to show that service is the highest degree of greatness. Think of it. friends! This Jesus came all the way from the glory world down even to washing feet. He humbled Himself even unto the death of the cross. He was among us as one who serves, and His followers must be servants.

Foremost among exceedingly welcome to England, for these is ntckel, of which 80 per cent of the worlds output comes from mines on the north shore of Lake Huron. Canada is the third largest producer of aluminum, her output be­ ing nearly half of ours; Canada and this country together produce more than Germany, which now leads all other nations. Zinc and copper also are indispensable war materials. Can­ ada produces nearly half as much zinc as this country, and the two combined could produce more than any other natton. Canada also pro­ duces 13 per cent of all the world's copper and 11 per cent of all its lead, and the two countries combined pro­ duct two-thirds of all the exportable wheat in the world. Of comae we should have to defend Canada if she were attacked; but it would be a mistake to think the al­ liance is a one-sided arrangement. Canada today is proportionately bet­ ter prepared for war than we are, and is capable of quite extensive military efforts. Right now she has an army of 300,000 and 2,400,000 men of draft age. She has over 1.700 air officers and 17,000 men, is working on 78 airdromes, and her factories are turning out 100 planes a month. Her navy has 118 vessels with 9,000 offic­ ers and men, with 16 shipyards at work on a hundred more. Her fac­ tories are turning out munitions of every kinds, and in large quantities. If the Canadian alliance is ever put to the test, we can be quite sure Can­ ada will do her full part The fourth element, in the interna­ tional deal consisted only of a prom­ ise by one man, but tt is enormously important to the U. S. Prime Minis­ ter Churchill gave the President his word that in no possible case would the British navy be surrendered or scuttled but would be brought to this side if England herself should be crushed. That promise is worth vastly more, for our defense, than the fifty destroyers we gave to England. It would solve at one stroke the prob­ lem of a two-ocean navy, if Britain should fall. We should not have to move our fleet to the Atlantic and surrender the Pacific to Japan. Altogether this fourfold arrange­ ment is almost too great to appre­ ciate and almost too good to be true. It will go down in history as one of the*great events in the long life of tlie nation — perhaps as a decisive factor in the history of the Western Hemisphere, of the Pacific region, and even of the world itself. — Adrian Daily Telegram. Tir Valuable The right thinker is Worker. the valuable worker. Guarding the door of one's consciousness and admitting only constructive thoughts is work of the highest order; and in^faithfully replacing destructive beliefs with honest and correct conclusions, one does a work that is interesting and profiable for himself and for the world. Christian Science emphasizes the necessity for right thinking, changing materia! beliefs for spirit­ ual concepts. One's real work con­ sists of utilizing spiritual ideas, which are ever at hand. These ideas supply the human need in a practical and satisfying manner. Mary Baker Ed­ dy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, writes (Message to The Mother Church for 1900, p. 2), "The song of Christian Science is, •Work — work — work — watch and pray1." And she adds, "The right thinker works; he gives little time to society manners or matters, and bene­ fits society by his example and use­ fulness." Right mental work is a joyous task, one that brings satisfying re­ turns in health, peace and usefulness. The question is sometimes asked. What is meant by the term "mental work," is used by Christian Scien­ tists? The answer is found in the study of the Christian Science text­ book, “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mrs. Eddy, in connection with the Bible. However, it may be briefly stated that mental work in Christian Science is the re­ placing of material, erroneous beiiefs of the carnal mind with spiritual concepts, thus demonstrating Truth and Love in daily living. Through right thinking the valu­ able worker refuses to accept as conelusive the testimony of corporeal sense. Rising in the strength of di­ vine Mind, he denies the reality of disease. He overcomes fear through the understanding of God as Love, and puts to rout subtle doubts and fearsome suggestions with enlighten­ ed or spiritual thinking. Fear is due to ignorance of God, a mental dark­ ness which disappears before the light of Truth. Humility, gentleness, alertness, honesty, diligence, and other Godlike qualities accompany right mental work; thus the worker finds opportunities to serve his fellow man. An essential part of right mental work consists in acknow! edg ng the great fact that God's work is already done. Man and the universe are at the standpoint of perfection. Man is the reflection of God, the expfession of infinite Life, limitless Truth.

[■■■SPECIAL!'''] TWO ------ Saturday Only-------THICK MALTEDS «Igcts * | ■ BUTTER, just like Mother made 30c lb. «| | : BLUE RIBBON DAIRY :! MISSOURI BUYS MICHIGAN BULLS Big business m current bulls, re­ ports A. C. Baltzer, extension dairy­ man on the staff of M. S. C., pointing out two sales dea s now in progress. Nea ly a hundred Michigan animals are involved in the purchase orders in which the college man is aiding in sclecuon and shipping from sellers to buyers. Nine Michigan counties are involv­ ed in supply.ng five more no them counties with better bul l. Dairy herd improvement association records are being used in the sales, permitting shipment of animals only a week to two months of age with : ecords based on the promise shown in them by the production in their ancestry. Missouri dairy-men also have asked Michigan farmers to find two car­ loads of Je seys and Guernseys, a to­ tal of 40 to 45 head. This, says Baltzer, is a repeat order of demands fill­ ed three years ago. Counties in which dairymen are selling young bulls for distribution among dairymen farther north in­ clude Oakland, Ingham, Allegan Kal­ amazoo, Muskegon, Mecosta, Mont­ calm, Jackson and St. Joseph. Coun­ ties where these animals w-ill find new homes include Emmet, Chari evoix, Antrim, Kalkaska and Cheboy­ gan. Bulls in these sales deals include 19 Guernseys, 15 Holrteins 6 Je-seys and others making a total of 49. De­ livery dates are this week end next Prices on the young, bulls range from $20 to $25. Animals are ear tagged for identification and from cows pro ducing 400 or more pounds of fat un­ der D. H. L A. test and also daugiiters of a sire proved by records. PUTS ”818” LABEL ON CORN IN TEST Moral: Don’t buy just any hybrid corn seed and run a three to one chance of getting one too late. Choose com hybrids of proved adaption. That’s the lesson seen by H. C. Rather, head of the farm crops ■ partment at M. S. C., in a check-up on com maturity made after the se­ vere frost at East Lansing on Sep­ tember 26. Com hybrids involved in the 1940 tests numbered 101, seed of most of which is offered for sale in Michigan. In addition to East Lansing plots, all of these 101 lines are in overstate trials away from the campus farms. When the frost came Sept 26, va­ rieties fully mature and safe number­ ed 33. In another classification were 52 kinds that should have had anoth­ er 5 to 10 days. These, says Rather, may have been ripe in southern Mich­ igan if they were planted ender comparaable conditions. Sixteen varie­ ties were still in late milk stage and needed tw-o to three more weeks. These would no have been safe va­ rieties anywhere in the state. Test plantings went into the ground on May 11. Later plantings would have meant that many more of these hybrid lines would have been caught by the frost In three previous years fanners have been able to get com into the ground fairly early and have been aided by delays in first killing frosts. This year, says Rather, the frost came at nearly normal time and proved many of the hybrids have no place In Michigan agriculture. THURSDAY, OCT. 10, IMO CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR NEWS.

Property consisting of 112 acres of farm and forest land four miles south of the Saginaw city limits as a gift to M. S. C. has been accepted by the State Board of Agriculture, govern­ ing boa d of the college. The gift comes from James C. Price of that city and consists largely of woodland. Much of the timber is nearly virgin and includes fine stands of large trees. Twenty-four acres are in idle fields. Forestry demonstration practices are scheduled for the timbered por­ tions of the farm, following action of the board which assigned administra­ tion of the tract to the college fores­ try department Growing of timber will be demon­ strated. as well as wildlife production and recreation facilities. Trees that originally made Saginaw famous are to be the kinds that will be used to replant the old fields, says P. A.

Foolish Builr.e.* A number of prom nent business men severely criticized a newspaper editor because he started a campaign to abolish a gambling establishment. Their plea was to the effect that chil­ dren were barred from the place and that they themselves enjoyed spend­ ing an evening unde, its roof after a hard day in the store or office. Con­ sequently the' editor being fearful of reprisals which might affect his ad­ vertising cont-acts, quashed the cam­ paign. Within a year ths matter was again ca'led to his attention by one of the same group of business men, who said: “I don't see why in the blankety-blank the sheriff or the pro­ secuting attorney doesn't do some­ thing to close that joint outside the city limits. Here I am, a heavy stockholder in the--------- corporation, and our auditor has absconded with thousands of dollars which he gam­ bled away there. If we do not raise this money within the next sixty days we will have to close the doo s of the plant and throw seventy-five men out of work." When the editor reminded this business man that he had been the first to complain when the newspaper started a campaign to close the gambling establishment the business leader frankly admitted the error he had made. However, the establish­ ment is reputed to have returned the money to the corporat'on rathe? than be force dto close its doors. No doubt politics played an important part in keeping this particula- gambling den open. Crime enforcement officials cannot afford to tolerate the operation of questionable places when public opin­ ion demands that they be abolished. In fact, the commercial interests in every community should realize that certain forms of commercialized amusement are detrimental to the morals of the younger generation. Business leaders must know that those who control amusements of the community also control Its morals. Physical Fear Unknown. A small colored boy was arraigned on a charge of stealing bicycles. Seve al older boys had forced him to commit the thefts and had promised to pay him a dollar for each bicycle he stole. He refused to divulge the names of the older boys when ques­ tioned by the judge, because he was so thoroughly intimidated that he dared not accuse them. The youngster was an o phan. whose foster parents were too old to keep strict watch over him. The older boys were eventually found and disciplined after the youngster had been removed to a farm home where he was freed from the influence of his former associates. Many youngs ters are forced into delinquency by being challenged or threatened into committing a dishon* j orable act. When they succeed in their first attempts, and gain the ap­ proval of older membe'S of the gang, they are frequently emboldened to attempt more hazardous undertak­ ings. Genera! Robe t E. Lee once commented on the fact that adoles­ cent boys made splendid soldiers be­ cause their lack of fear enables them to take chances in many instances where an older person woliid hesitate. When we consider this theory, we realize that youngsters betkeen four­ teen and seventeen years of age are capable of committing even more serious offenses than a mature person..

A shovelful of gold Searing dirt put into a pan and then shaken around in the pan with some water from the little creek or river, causes the gold to gather at the bottom of the pan, where you will find it when you have washed away all the dirt and rocks. So, you see. when some one "pans ' you, he runs you around in the gossip vessel until your reputation nns away like the dirt and rocks. But character is gold, and the "panning” only brings it to view. "Panning” will never rob you of what you really are. Now, God lets peopel have trouble so that the gold in them will come out'pure. But the devil's process is not "panning," for he uses a sieve, and in his hands a man’s character is broken up and goes sifting titough the temptation holes. Everywhere you turn you can see the sieve working, with folks break­ ing down before temptations and go­ ing to pieces. Do you know how to get away from the sieve? There is only One who can help you say "nev­ er again" and make it good. That One is the Lord, Jesus Christ! Will you receive Him and be converted? „ "Marvel not that I said unto thee. •Ye must be born again'."—John 3-7. —Todays Gospel Truth, by Irving G. Wahls trom. o— 1 ■ • By coincidence thia week Wednesday, Oct. 16, is a doubly import­ ant registration day. It was the day on which all men between the ages of 21 and 35, inclusive, registered undethe selective military service law and it likewise was the last day for the registration of voters for the presi­ dential election Nov. 5. The men registering under the con­ scription law had to appear before registration boards in their election precinct voting places between 7 o’clock in the morning and 9 in the evening. Each was required to give his name, age. date and place of birth, his residence, a physical description of himself and the name and address of his employer. With few exceptions all young men in the 21-35 age group were required to register, the exceptions being those already in the military service of the U. S. or those who are enlisted in the National Guard or the .••eserve corps. The registrat'on of all others was ob­ ligatory. It is to be remembered that the mere fact of registration does not mean that the registrant is to be called for military service immediate­ ly. The registration is the first step in compliance with the draft law, however. Exemptions from the draft call by reason of dependents, physical unfitness or for any other reason will be determined later by the d aft boards. The registn’.tion is a part of the na­ tion’s great preparedness prog am Those caned for active service are to Registration Day. undergo a year's military training to fit them for duty with the armed for­ ces of the country should the need arise. The duty to register is made mandatory and failure to register be­ cause of ignorance of the law is no excuse. Wednesday also was the final reg­ istration day for voters to make themselves eligible to cast their bal­ lot in the November election. Only new voters, those not registered now o.’ those who have moved from one precinct to another since they last voted need to register now. Voters register with their city or township clerks. • The Empire Must Bo Sa\r<L The overwhelming majority of Amer­ icans believe that the safety of the United States de­ pends on England's resisting Ger­ many successfully. They believe we should help England to the utmost. They usually say by “every means short of war.” and that is the phrase nearly all the politicians use. As a matter of fact they approve many things that a:e acts of war, and upon which Germany might declare war against us. For example: furnishing government arms and ammunition to England; turning over to her fifty war ships with which to fight Ger­ many; making a military alliance with Canada which is at war with Germany. The government takes these steps; the majority of Congress approves them; both candidates for the presidency approve them; the great majority of the people approve them. It all shows bow thoroughly America is convinced that England must be saved. But more than England must be saved. The British Empire must be saved if our future is to be protected and our navy is to be able to defend us. Even if the British Isles should be able to keep up their heroic de­ fense until Hitler gives up their con­ quest and agrees to let the United Kingdom remain free and independ­ ent. that is not enough if the Empire is dismembered. It is not enough that those small islands should re­ main unconquered but isolated, the Germans taking over. Britain's colon­ ies and naval bases, and controlling the sea lanes of the world. That is apparently what Hitler now has in mind. He has been sharply checked in conquering Britain, and now it is announced from many Axis sources that the next move is to eat away and break up the British Em­ pire. Germany is to help Italy con­ quer Egypt control the Suez canal, and drive the British from the Medi­ terranean. Gibraltar is to be captur­ ed. or made useless. The British oil supply from the Near East is to be cut off and Britain driven from that region. Finally the new triple alli­ ance aims to destroy British power in the Far East and Japan openly threatens to attack Singapore, domi­ nate the East Indies, and leave Aus­ tralia isolated and Impotent If this plan should succeed, nothing would be left of the British Empire outside of the United Kingdom ex­ cept the Union of South Africa, wnich might be allowed to exist as a ha*<nlesa little independent country; Aus­ tralia, which probably would also re­ main independent until conquered by Japan; New Zealand, the same; and, of course. Canada and such small British posessiona in and around the Caribbean as we might be able to protect All the rest of Africa would be taken over by Germany and Italy. India would go to Germany, the Ma­ lay States and the British East In­ dies to Japan. And with that reshuffling would go all of Britain's naval bases and forti­ fied places outside of home waters. From Gib altar to the Cap* of Good Hope the Germans would control a string of naval and air bases facing South America. They would control the Mediterranean, the Red Sea and all East African po to, which would assure the-’r hold upon India. The Japanese would take over Hong Kong and the mighty naval fortress of Singaporc, which would give them com­ mand of ail eastern Asia, the western Pacific, the East Indies and the Phil­ ippines, and the routes to Aust alia The Germans would take over the Falkland Islands in the South Atlan­ tic, and various other remote and scattered islands would would serve admirably as air. stations and subma­ rine bases. It must be a dull person who would fail to understand what all this would mean to the United States. It would be a loss to us which we could not offset if we spent fifty billion dollars on sea power and air power. In fact we probably could not offset It at all, by any expenditure, or by any effort. With ou- enemies in possession of na­ val bases all around tile world, and with the combined shipbul ding power of Europe and Japan against us, wc probably could never regain our na­ val position. We should be outclassed and dominated upon the oea—defin­ itely and hopelessly. w . North America In the strategic and political sense, is an island. It differs from Great Britain only in size. Its strength whether offensive or defen­ sive (which mean the same thng) lies in sea power and al- power. That alone can keep war away from our own coasts. That alone can enable us to fight and defeat our enemies at a distance. That alone can insure the safety, independence, power and pros­ perity of the United States. The widely scattered possessions of the British Empire, with their many naval bases, air bases and fortified points, are as essential a part of our defenses as they would be if they be­ longed to us. Why? Because they would be used against our enemy either by Britain or by us, or by both together. They are even more val­ uable to us in British hands than they would be if we owned them, because they are kept up by Britain without cost to us. The interests of the United States and of the British Empire today are identical, as far as the war and world politics are concerned. A blow to either is a blow to both. The defeat of either would be an irreparable ca­ lamity to the other. The challenge of Germany, Italy and Japan is a chal­ lenge to both. The only possible an­ swer Is complete unity of action and the most effective possible joint de­ fense of Briiah-American sea powe —Adrian Dally Telegram. The Need Of At all times, and cspeMankind. daily when a conflict is raging upon the out­ come of which many believe the fate of empires depends, the need of man­ kind is for the courage and spiritual strength which proceed from an un­ derstanding of the Scriptural fact that God, good, is omnipotent, and that man is made in His image and likeness. While humanity hopes fer­ tile evil days to be shortened, this de­ sirable result can be obtained only as there is inc: eased spiritual consecra­ tion to good In individual thinking and living, with the consequent elimi­ nation therefrom of that which is un­ like good. Chrlsian Science reveals the true nature of God and of man as His spir­ itual reflection, which enables the in­ dividual to overcome the false belief that evil has power, or that matter is real. Christian Science blesses all mankind with its disclosure of divine Truth and Love. As we cherish with­ in our consciousness the eternal veri­ ties which this Science reveals, and put them into practical application, resultant blessings flow Into our ex­ perience. God is omnipresent Spirit, perfect Mind, infinite Love; and the real man, His eternal reflection, is wholly spiritual. This truth is al­ ways capable of demonstration for once this fact is seen, our primary need for a true foundation is met The illusory beliefs that there is a mortal mind opposed to God. which has power to create, dominate, or de­ stroy, and that man is. material and perishable, are thereby dispelled. The next necessary step is the practical demonstration of the fact that the real man. being the image and likeness of God, expresses divine Love and forever, reflects the joy and strength of Truth, the animus of eter­ nal Life, the might of perfect Mind. In his epistle to the Ephesians (Sl­ id, 20), the Apostle Paul expresses the prayer that we may be “filled with all the fulness of God," who “is able to do exceed.ng abundantly above all that we ask or think, ac­ cording to the power that worketh in us.'” In the Cliristian Science text­ book, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, Mary Baker Eddy writes (p. 494): “Divine Love a ways has met and always will meet every human need. It is not well to imag! ine that Jesus demonstrated the divine power to heal only fo a select number or for a limited period of time, since to all mankind and in every hour, di­ vine Love supplies all good." Our human need may seem to be for money, food or clothing. The gifts of God are spiritual qualities, and as we utilize our God-given in­ telligence and understanding of our epiritual relationship to Him. our needs will be met Unwavering faith in God, coupled with spiritual intui­ tion and an umselfod purpose, ove-'comes difficult materia] conditions.

BARRY CL H UNION MEETING Despite the bad weather of Mon­ day night, Oct. 14. there were enough brave people co ventu e forth and fill the North Maple Grove Evangelical church at the monthly meeting of the Barry County C. EL Union. The topic of the evening was: At­ taining the Best in Citizenship, and the period of devotions was led by Miss Pauline Douse. The order of worahip following was thus: P.elude. An Evening Prayer— Barbara Cotton; Hymn, We’ve a Story to Tell to the Nations; call to worahip: "Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, and the peop.e whom He hath chosen for an inheritance. Righeousness exalteth a nation, but sn is a reproach to any nation." hymn, America the Beautiful; lead­ ing. What Makes a Nation Great?— Alexander Blackbum; hymn, Amer­ ica; prayer, Rev. W. C. Bassett. Rev. A. A. Griffin, Union president, then called the roll. Societies repre­ sented were: Kilpatrick U. B., Maple Grove Evan., Nashville Evan., Wood­ land U. B. Woodland Evan., Barryviiie M. EL, Hastings Presbyterian, Martin and Quimby M. EL. Coats Grove. Among the numerous and interest­ ing announcements was the first is­ sue of the Barry Union paper. It is still without a name and each society is urged to read contest rules and send in names to K. B. Schaibly, who is the publisher. Another announcement of Import­ ance concerned the state publicity contest for Unions. The contest op­ ened Oct. 1 and will conclude June 15, 1941. The rules are based on newspaper clippings about C. E. We have been informed that Barry coun­ ty, which- won the contest for 1939-40, will be given a handicap on points this year, so it means that each so­ ciety must work. Send in you- items of your society to Mary Dillenbeck, Woodland. • The speaker of the evening was Hon. John C. Ketcham, who has prov­ en to be a loyal friend of youth in C. EL His enthusiasm and earnestness for the subject of attaining the best in citizenhTp pleaed his listening and attentive audience, until everyone de­ clared afterwards how much they en joyed hearing him speak. Miss Stelia Wise played a trumpet solo, accompanied by Mrs. W. C. Bas­ sett. Following the special number, the awarding of the attendance ban­ ner was made to the Nashville Evan­ gelical society. It was a close con­ test, with Kilpatrick U. B. one point behind and Baryville M. E. only two points behind. Mr. Ketcham closed the meeting by leading the group in the singing of God Bless America. Rev. T. A. Moy­ er, pastor of the host church, gave the benediction. The November meeting of the Bar­ ry Union will be held at the Calvary U. B. chu-ch in Lake Odessa Nov. 11, at 8 p. m. There will be special mu­ sic from Lake Odessa high school. Moving pictures of African mission work will be shown in conjunction with a missionary address given by Rev. G. D. Fleming of Huntington. Ind. Orvin Sedorc Is the president of the Calva y C. E. society, and Rev. F. W. Moxon is pastor of the host church. Deep Test Nearing End. (Mich gan Gas and-Oil News from Barry County.)

(Said one thing—Did the op­ posite.) Rooeevelt told us that he would re­ duce expenses, lessen the number of federal employes; that such was the only safe cou se. For seven years, he has been increasing expenses, add­ ing to the number of federal em­ ployees. (Announced a good policy— Refused to follow it.) Many, many other instances might be cited. Now having lost faith in America, he tells us insubstance that there is no man—no, not even In the Demo­ cratic Party nor, for that matter, in his New Deal official family—who La honest enough, intelligent enough, patriotic enough, to take up and car­ ry on the duties of the Presidency; that he alone has the ability and pat­ riotism to be President. His thought is an insult to eve*y American boy who aspires to be President or to high official position. He says he is willing to sacrifice himself and although he does not want the office, if we insist, he will again accept it Why? , Because, forsooth, no other man is qualified. Rot and nonsense! The same thought was in the mind of every king or em­ peror of by-gone days. Presumably, Roosevelt will die some time. If his theory is correct, what will this na­ tion do when he is gone?

As true today as when written 150 ’It is the common fate of the indo­ lent to sec their rights become a prey to the active. The condition ujfon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime and the pun ishment of his guilt’*—John Curran -1750-2817. In the Book of Mark of the Bible, we read: "And they went forth and preached everywhere, the Lord work­ ing with them, and confirming the word with signs following" (Mark 16:20). What a wonderful partner­ ship is his! How successful this en­ terprise will be! How blessedly fruit­ ful will be the Lord's business when the Lord works with Ria own! Labor must work together with business and capital. We as fellow workers must learn to live and to woak together also, But oh, what a privilege to work together with the God who made it all! * Your most difficult work will be­ come easy if He works with you. If He places His hand over yours, then, together, the burden is easily lifted and carried. No work is difficult, either in church or in the home, if He works with you. Perhaps one reason that the world is bo little interested in Christian things is that the Lord and we are not working together. If our service and ministry were with power, be­ cause He was working with us, those who are of a contrary heart would be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of us. There is no answer to power. Let us be co-workers with the Lord! In order to become a co-worker with the Lord, we must first accept His plan of salvation as He presents Jesus Christ to us. We cannot work together intelligently with some one whom we do not know. So we are told that “To as many as receive (Christ as their Saviour) to them gives God the power to become the Sons of God.’’ And so we are bom into God's family through Faith. Will you by faith now receive Christ as your personal Saviour and seek to find His purpose for your life and then let Him work with you for His eternal purpose? "But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were afar off are made nigh by the blood of Christ" Eph. 2:13.—Today's Gospel Truth, by Irv­ ing G. Wahlstrom. “Working Together.’1 We greatly fear that the gravely deceived as to the status and the prospects of national defense—that we have been living in a fools’ paradise which may suddenly collaapse in tragic disaster if the test of war should come too soon. We have on paper a gigantic pro­ gram of armament, and the public has assumed that it is being carried a matter of fact it got a slow start, it has developed tardily and ineffic­ iently, and today it lags to a degree that many do not realize—and which deeply ahirma those who actually know the facts. The situation was already disturb­ ing in 1937. In 1938 It was clear to the well informed—including the President’s advisers—that war was coming. By January. 1939, it was so clear that the President sent his first message to Congress asking for large appropriations for defense. The appropriations were made, and they were followed by others until some ten billions had been authorised for all forms of defense, land, sea and air. But the actual work of de­ fense dragged. Not only was there failure to get new plants started, but nowhere near the available existing capacity of munition plants was used. Red tape politics, and pure incompe­ tence, caused interminable delays. Arms, artillery, naval construction, airplaanes ammunition — all these lines and many others could furnish stories that would astonish and wor­ ry the American people if the history of the last year were laid bare. But it is not necessary to write history. The facts of today speak for themselves. There are not enough accommodations to house even the first contingent of drafted men and the mobilized National Guard. The army has only about 50,000 of the new Garand rifles, and it will be a year from next spring before there will be enough for even 750,000 men —let alone the two millions that are contemplated. The lack of tanks, of modern artillery, of antitank guns, of anti-aircraft guns, is simply appal­ ling. Neither the army nor the na­ vy has enough ammunition to last for more than a few weeks of largescale operations and the present out­ put of gunpowder and explosives is only a tiny fraction of what we were making during the last war—or what we should need in the next war. One thing that has helped to lull the public into a quiescent state of mind is the Advisory Council of Na­ tional Defense, headed by the great steel executive Stettinius and with Knudson of General Motors in charge of production matters. They arc great industrial organizers, and the other members of the council are able men. Many people imagine that they have charge of things; that they arc putting the program through with all the energy and genius of American Big Business; that what they say The truth is very different. The Advisory Council is only advisory. It has no primary authority. It can give no orders. Mr. Stettinius or Mr. Knudson in their own organizations could order a million tons of steel or a million cars to be rushed, and they would be rushed; in Washington nei­ ther one has the power to order a screw-driver for the army or the na­ vy. The council has no responsible executive head—such as the procure­ ment departments of every other na­ tion have. It has even lacked a chair­ man to call its sessions to order. None of the council’s members— not even Stettinius or Knudson—is a member of the Council erf National Defense, made up of six very busy­ cabinet members who have more than enough to do in running their own departments, and who know much more about politics than about war production. Of couree what is needed is a real war industries board, as we had in the last war with an able and power ful man at the head of it. as Ber­ nard Baruch was m those days. Ev­ ery other nation has one. The array and navy have cried and begged for one. But the President has never been willing to diminish his own pow­ er and that of his cabinet, not even to meet such a vital need. Wendell Wilikie in his speech at Albany Saturday night gave a most iliumln«ting history of the “amorti­ zation" problem. That word means the extinguishment or charging off of an investment. If a company buys a million dollars worth of equipment that will be worthless at the end of five O’- ten or twenty years, it must charge off the proper share each year as loss. That is called . amortizing the investment Now if a company is asked to make a million dollar addition to its fac­ tory to manufacture shells or gun barrels, it is obvious that the plant would be worthless if the govern­ ment should stop ordering those things. It could not be used for commercial work. So sensible buri- THURSDAY, OCT. M. 1M« L4TON SUPERVISORS order that would require such an ex- FILL REGISTER POST thirty. Most men are patriotic but not many want to Invite bankruptcy. Such assurance from the govern­ ment absolutely neceiieary If tull war-time production was to be ex­ pected. and as early as April, 1938, Admiral Furiong urged that some de­ finite rule for amortization be made, so as to speed up the navy’s building program. Kight months later the secretary of the navy talked with the Treasury about it, but nothing was done. -Six months from then the un­ dersecretary of the Treasury, at the request of the War and Navy de­ partments, d *cw up a plan. The President approved it, but still noth­ ing was done. After another six months the Secretary of the Treas­ ury said he did not favor such a plan. That was in December.. 1939, and again six months went by. Then in July, 1940, the President had a con­ ference with various officials and ap­ proved a rule that would allow a man­ ufacturer to charge off the cost of special equipment for making muni­ tions over a period of five years. But even then nothing was done. It was a simple matter, which Congress could have passed in two days, but the President insisted on tying it up with a complicated and controversial excess profits tax bill So three months more went by, and it was on­ ly last week that the matter was settled and manufacturers knew what they could count on—two years and six months after the Navy urged that it be done at once. France dawdled with defense, and paid for it in disaster. England was caught half asleep, and it is uncer­ tain whether she awoke in time to save her life. With those terrible object lessons, and after having had every possible warning for the last three years, the administration at Washington has caused incredible delays, and still fails to get anything like the full industrial power of Am­ erica mobilized for defense. That is the greatest fault that can be charged against President Roose­ velt *and his administration. The na­ tion may pay a terrible p ice for it— Adrian Daily Telegram. The second com­ mandment in the Hebrew Decalogue (Exodus 20:4), which reads, in part, "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image," is the logical corol­ lary of the First Commandment (20:3), 'Thou shalt have no other gods before me." In fact the *two commandments are essentially one, for it would be impossible to fulfill the former without obeying the lat­ ter. In order to appreciate the full import of the second commandment, it is necessary to understand that at the time the Ten Commandments were given to Moses, through divine inspiration, the worship of idols, in one fortm or another, was a general practice of mankind. The Israelites who followed Moses out of Egypt, where they had been influenced by pagan worship, soon be­ gan to murmur. And when Moses left them, temporarily, to commune with God in Mount Sinai, where he received the Commandments, they soon took steps to set up an idol in the wilderness. This human tenden­ cy to exalt matter above Spirit has ever contended against worship of the true God, so that mankind has been largely deprived of the genuine free­ dom which includes immunity from sin, disease, and death. Looking on the brighter! side of the record of human history, we see that the concept of one God, as revealed to Abraham, has never ceased to unfold progressively to the receptive thougst. Today the Ten Commandments, the books of the law. the prophetic Scriptures, and the revelation of Christ Jesus, as set forth in the New Testament, are acknowledged by Christendom to be sources <rf true in­ spiration. Sometimes material prosperity has been allowed to obscure the spiritual realities. However, at times, among ebbing and flowing tides of right and wrong thinking there has come a great upsurge of spiritual power, tlirough which righteousness has been reinstated in the human affections and the false claims of evil have been seen as evil. By far the most important example of spiritual awakening since the time of Christ Jesus, is found in the dis­ covery of Christian Science by Mary Baker Eddy. Through it the pure monotheism of the Old Testament and the Christ-hea'ing of the New Testament have been brought within the grasp of mankind. Mre. Eddy has shown how the graven images of sin, rickne—, and the fear of death can be cast out of human thinking through an understanding of the true God as revealed in the Bible. In an article exposing the falsity of evil (Miscellaneous Writings. P- 346). ahe makes the positive assertion: -‘Evil never did exist as an entity. It is The Second Commandment.

Th s belief is a species of idolatry, and is not more true of real than that an image grav­ en on wood or stone is God." We see, therefore, that the entire structure of materiality, the reality of which Christian Science1 disp oes is based upon a foundation of sand. On the other hand, the one God, who is Truth, being changeless, becomes in­ creasingly understood by those who obey the divine statutes. The strange gods of our own time are numerous and confusing. We are today witnessing the apotheosis of the human will, expressed in count­ less variations of self-worship. Among these is the false exaltation of the human intellect, which would dispute the validity of the Holy Scrip­ tures and sterilize all attempts at spiritual development It should be apparent, however that, without spir­ itual advancement, the errors of ma­ terial sense would become more invet­ erate. The material elements in human thinking may be regarded as a phase of idolatry. The prophet Zechariah, in preparing the people of his time for the coming of God's kingdom, rep­ resented God as saying (Zechariah 13:9), “I . . . will try them as gold is tried." In the Christian Science text­ book, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, Mrs. Eddy, in apply­ ing the same metaaphor, says (pp. 66, 67), “The furnace separates the gold from the dross that the precious metal may be graven with the image of God.’’ In connection with this simile it is signficant that when the dross is removed from the molten metal the refiner sees his own image reflected from its surface. Thus we see that as mankind understands and obeys the laws <rf God. good, human consciousness becomes purified, and the perfect man is revealed as the image of his Maken.—Christian Sci­ ence Monitor.

My newsy friend: Somehow, but I will state unwilling­ ly, I have been forced into a pos tion which borde s onto what m ght be termed uncertainty. And that is this: whether or not it is advisable fo show my face again so soon after my last appearance (ahem.) in public. It is becoming qu te apparent fo me that ths affliction of mine is becoming more and more insistent; in fact it seems to be g owing upon me. And I fear that it will have to receive some drastic treatment before it can be thoroughly eradicated. We had thought some of making an apology, but remembering that you had been sort of Pa-ti ceps Crimin is and acces sory before the fact, we omit the apology. But I assure you, to quote an od laying, there is method in my mad­ ness, and the provocation has been great. One evening some time ago, and we have it from the best of sources that time files, and also according fo hisfo-y Old Dad Time holds the long dis­ tance record for sustained flight—Oh shucks—Well, this evening we were out in the back yard entranced with its beauties and enjoying the balmy breeze redolent with aroma of the goldren-od and ubiquitous ragweed, and casting an admiring eye at the big round effulgence of the harvest moon—Oh, dang it!—Well, from the top of a nearby elm tree there emanaated a raucous voice with a’l the strident qualities of a political corner soap-box orator spieling for a Presi­ dential campaign. Gosh, I’m off again, I can get on again, but I can’t man­ age to stay on—Well, that voice was proclaiming to all and sundry that Katy did—Katy did—Katy did. Now we've been investigating for years to learn what it was that Katy did. but no sale. But that loud and insistent repetition £o inflamed our We that we went into seclusion in our inner sanctum and proceeded to indite an epic of our intense displeasure, to wit: Well, we got it off our chest, anyway. Good Bye, Summpr. Good bye, summer; We heard your call to go, When the Katy-did was singing In the evening twilight glow, As th ough the dark'ning shadows That Katy’s song did ring, The truth was thrust upon us That summer's on the wing. Oh summer, we shall miss you In the days to come we know, When the icy winds they bluster And the air is filled with snow, While you’re taking your siesta Where the balmy breezes blow And we sit abound and ahiver With it forty-two below. There'll be weary days of waiting. Long weary days I know, 'Ere we hear the robins singing When the springtime breezes blow; Our hea:t is filled with sadness. Oh summer, must you go? But the autumn leaves a'falllng Sings a requiem sad and low. Oh summer, you are changing, We fear you’re fickle too, And now your threat to leave us— O-Oh, summer, Boo-Hoo-Hoo. My heart is filled with longing, For our parting grieves me so; Oh summer, dear old summer, If you love me, don’t you go. Good bye summer We bear you’re bound to go; We like to keep you waiting. For we know you dread the snow. Good bye, summer, We hate to have you go; We’ll be waiting in the springtime When the pussywillows show. —Old An-Teke. (Chas. H.

THURSDAY, OCT. 31, IMO Five Cent* the Copy UNUSUAL PLANT ATTRACTS ATTENTION Michigan Mirror Because of competition, two private feuds go before Michigan voters next And. as usually the case, the Inno­ cent bystander who Is most affected is the consumer—Mr. and Mrs. John Q. Public—-who pay the bill. The controversies involve two ref1939 bus bill, and State Proposal No. 4, the 1931 dent.sts' anti-competition bill. The state legislature, along with other measures, passed both acts only to have special groups cir­ culate petitions for a referendum of the people. And so, when you go to the polls on Tuesday, you will be confronted with huge special ballots of bedsheet proportions. The headings will mean little, if anything. Bus Competition. The bus act feud involves two transportation concerns—the Depart­ ment of Street Railways in Detroit, a municipal utility, and the Eastern Michigan Motor Bus company, a pri­ vate utility. In 1939 the legislature enacted an amendment to the Motor Carrier Act. This change said that when Detroit seeks to operate its buses beyond a two-mile limit from the city's borders, and on state highways, it must come under the same regulations and pay the same taxes as do private trans­ portation buses. The Michigan Motor Bus associa­ tion, which seeks a "Yes" vote on the No. 3 proposal, wants competition to be put on the same basis for all. The DSR of Detroit, which as a municipal uti Ity urges a “No" vote, raises the cry of “monopoly" and “profits." Who is conce ned about all this? Consumers in the Detroit suburban area are affected directly. Consum­ ers in up-state communities are af­ fected indi.ectly In payment or non­ payment, of gasoline taxes. Continuing the bureau’s j analysis: larly concerned with a quarrel with n the dental profession. It is concern ed with the protection of public health. No doubt much of the ma­ terial of this act (P. A 122) Is in the interest of public health. "As to the al'egat'on that adver­ tising and the operation of more than one office Is prima facie evidence of poor dental practices—to the layman that doesn’t make sense. Possibly the answer is competent state regu­ lation of all dentists—adve Users and non-advert.sers alike.** . As both dental groups must have professional training at a recognized dental college and must be licensed by the dentists' own state dental board, the competitive motive behind the bill is easy to see, as the Detroit bureau ponts out From the con­ sumer’s viewpoint, the anti-competi­ tion restriction "doesn't make sense." Perhaps the most interesting sight on Main street these days is the 12 NATIONALLY KNOWN ECONO­ MIST TO CONDUCT COOKING | year o d Crassula in the Florist shop.

If the State Propisal No. 4 was the only anti-competition bill to confront the consumer, perhaps there would be less reason for concern. But such is not the case. Stuart Perry, editor of the Adrian Daily Telegram which has never re­ ceived a penny in dental advertising, has called attention editorially to the point that the dentists' act is design­ ed to stifle competition and would es­ tablish a dangerous precedent for the consumer who always pays. If it is wrong to advertise the truth about dental prices, then it is wrong to tell the truth about other prices. And where will it all end? * In 1911 the "truth in advertising" statute, making it illegal for anyone to make an untruthful, deceptive or misleading statement in any adver­ t sement was introduced nationally. Michigan's statute is considered to be a model law of its kind. Advertising Of Price*. Invariably the point arises: Why is it necessa-y for any group to have Dental Competition. a special law of its own—forbidding The second private feud, also in­ price advertising of any kind—when volving the consumer, is between two Michigan already has a statute fully groups of professionally trained and protecting the interests of the con­ state licensed dentists. sumer?

ARNOLD PIANO TUNING AND REPAIRING WX. . .sues. ..-V Masnvute, 19-p —Frank Parr, manager of the Riv­ erside Fr.uit Farm and Greenohuse of Eaton Rapids, has in operation this fall a machine that picks up, cleans and dumps potatoes into crates, di­ rectly following the potato digger. This machine, w hile in the'experimen­ tal stage, does double the work at half the expense in a given time. At present the machine is operated by a gasoline engine attached to the pick­ up machine, which is attached to the digger, the potatoes being* conveyed by belt from the ground to the crates. One man looks after separating the vines and taking out stones, which are thrown from the machine thru a set of rollers. The potatoes ore then carried on to the crates on a platform' at the rear. The machine will dig, pick up and crate from 50 to 100 bushels per houx depending on condi­ tions. Representatives of some of the Implement manufacturers have been there and witnessed its operation on the McArthur plot of 34 aces just south of Eaton Rapids. Mr. Parr, through his attorney, G. Elmer McAr­ thur, is making application for pat­ ents and rights. AU those who have seen the machine in operation believe that Mr. Parr nas something that will revolutionize picking up of potatoes, which work heretofore has had to be done by hand and manual labor. Parr reports a crop of appoximately 6,000 bushels on this 34 acres. Oct., IMO. Dear John:— your Ideals. But It's worth it Everyone I knew felt I was plumb loco when I first became interested in th© Townsend Plan back in '36. They’d put up arguments showing how crazy the Idea was and how it would bankrupt the country Then there were people who tried to make us believe that the old folks didn’t want adequate government pensions and that It was up to their young­ sters to take care of them. I could neve.- see how a jobless youngster can take care of his parents when be couldn’t take care of his own family. I guess you remember some erf those early meetings at our home, and some of the “slaps" your old Dad took when he was defending his ideas ? That's all changed now, and while it"s true we still suffer a bit from the adverse publicity we received in those days, we are able to obtain a fair hearing in most quarters. This is due to the fact that hun­ d eds of our open-minded leaders in Washington have been won over and many outstanding economists now agree with Dr. Townsend regarding the need for increased money velocity.

Re-elect CONSUMERS SENATOR VANDENBERG PROTECT YOUR POCKETBOOKS VOTE “NO” on No. 4 STATE DENTAL BILL This is on important message to you, Mr. and Mrs. Consumer. Michigan has a model statute governing the use of advertising. It fully protects the consumer against misuse of advertising by false or misleading statements of any kind. Newspapers are ready at all times to keep their advertising columns clean from such abuse. Merchants likewise do not wish to mislead the consumer with inaccurate statements which result only In ill will and loss of patronage. The economic freedom of the consumer depends largely on his or her ability to get truthful information. Is there any justification for a scheme to rob you of this right; to prohibit telling the truth? State Proposal No. 4, the Dental Bill, would deny the consumer this important privilege. It would prohibit the telling of prices. It would encour­ age other groups to work for special legislation to restrict competition. It would evade the American system of justice by court and Jury. It would deny to both consumer and business man the freedom of truthful advertising. Consumers, Guard your rights! Defend the right to tell the truth, os judged by court and jury, and os safeguarded against abuse by the Michigan false advertising law. This is the American way! VOTE "NO" ON STATE PROPOSAL NO. 4. MICHIGAN PRESS ASSOCIATION When You Vote for Vandenberg You Vote for Michigan Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg is Michi­ gan's champion. In foreign relations, in finance, in commerce, he is one of the few successful, influential and important men Michigan ever sent to Washington. BUT he has never forgotten the people who sent him there. For thirteen years he has fought for Michigan’s interests—from sugar beets to automobiles, from furniture to fruit He’s a staunch friend of farming, an aggressive spokesman for organized labor . • . and an implacable foe of extravagance. Vandenberg is the man who sponsored the famous “munitions investigation” that took big profits out of war. He is the man who forced congressional reapportionment, gaining four scats for Michigan in the House of Representatives, and four votes in the Electoral College. He is the man who was respon­ sible for last January’s bill an increase of 50% in taxes on Workers. He is called “the Father of Bank Deposit Insurance.” He is the man who saved America $500,* 000,000 by defeating the shamefully waste­ ful Passamaquoddy and Florida Ship Canal and a number of other senseless projects. _ He has done all these things for the na­ tion, but he has never been too busy to' “deliver the goods” for Michigan. He aaved the state's copper industry with his tariff. . He sponsored Isle Royale’t development as Michigan's first National Parle. He has vigilantly guarded the state’s vast: interests in Great Lakes commerce, and he is working now for Michigan’s share in< National Defense.

' 1 Children In Court Jwlgc Maleelm n.tlU PromMr And Short* At An entire neighborhood went to a mother's aid when she sought to have her wanton sun retu-wed to her. This mother Ixad been deserted ten years previously by her husband, but the authorities informed her that they could not afford to spend the public funds to locate and return him. Therefore the woman was forced to seek employment in a factory to sup­ port her three children. Since he j work kept her away from home every week day from 8 o'clock in the morning till 6 o’clock in the evening, she could not exert proper supervision over her children. Con­ sequently, he:t son became implicated in a case in which he and three boys were charged with "joy riding" in * borrowed automobile. After the son had been returned to his mother's custody, the judge re­ marked: ‘1 have observed that a sheriff and a prosecutor will spend hundreds of dollars to catch a thief but they condone wife and child de­ sertion. If your husband had been returned and forced to do his duty, his son would not have been in court today. With this sort of thing hap­ pening every day, I am heartily in favor of all floaters being required to present a clean bill of health from their home town sheriff or chief of police before they are permitted to settle and find work in a new locality. There is little doubt that thousands of such deserters who are evading their responsibility today would soon be located if they were required to report their various residences during the past fifteen years to a central bu­ reau." The Effect Of Long Summer Vaca­ tions On Children. Authorities in many sections of the country note that juvenile crime im­ mediately increases as soon as schools are closed for the summer vacation. During this period many of the de­ sirable habits and attitudes which the school has built up tn children are lost because of the pernicious influ­ ences exercised by the community. Long vacation periods should be eliminated so that the schools can keep a closer check on the outside in- : SKATING : : "FOR HEALTH'S SAKE, ROLLER SKATE.** • ■ ; < . •1 ’ I < • :: ■ I ' I \ fluences detrimental to the lives of children. If the public at large and teachers themselves will not insist on shorter ✓•cation pe Jods, then the schools must be permitted to super­ vise all juvenile recreational activi­ ties during vacation. , Many educators are thoroughly in accord with the theory that school buildings, playgrounds, gymnasiums, shou’d be open to children for recrea­ tional purposes every day in the year. Such a prog am would entail an im­ mediate expen-se to taxpayers, but would result in a saving, because it is much cheaper to utilise buildings for recreational purposes than to ev­ entually build additional prisons and reformatories to regiment young­ sters who are forced to seek recrea­ tion in questionable places. The Fatherly Stranger. The unattached fatherly man who f equents picture shows, libraries, street corners, etc., is often a menace to small girls and boys. The activity of these degenerates often cover a wide range. One of them was found begging pennies and nickles from the youngsters who befriended him. An­ other was distributing illicit litera­ ture to young boys. The worst offender-of this type ia the man who tries to gain the confi­ dence of young girls for immoral pur­ poses. This is not a rare occurrence. Unless a young girl is completely for­ tified with a thorough knowledge re­ garding such persons and their evil practices, she should not be allowed to frequent public places without the protection of ah"older person.

Landon, "Whoever is elected will be my President for the next four years. F.rst, I want to say to the dictators who are offering us al­ ternate threats and bribes that they are making a very grave error if they mistake the rivalry of a political campaign for disun ty in the-United States. We Americans do not con­ duct our political affairs w»th this atttitude. As soon as the election is over, Democrats as well as Republ cans will rally in the nation’s inter­ est to the support of the President of the United States. This vital and dominate attitude in American po­ litical life will not be changed by the bitterness of this campaign.” We hope that all will be b g enough to truly join in this, the fin­ est statement that has been made in this campaign. We do not mean to surrender in the least degree our campaign for the Townsend princi­ ple. Our pledge of loyalty does not mean blind support of every proposal or every action made by the admin­ istration in power. We shall con­ tinue as a severe and militant critic, pointing out injustices and inade­ quacies, but always with the idea of building toward a new and better America. The hatred engendered by political campaigning must end. To achieve a prompt defense we must have no internal differences or d.visions. Wendell L. Willkie called for "dy­ namic unity." That means effective, forceful, united action on the part of labor, capital and all organized groups to the end that America shall stand supreme in internal and external defense. Probate Court.

ADVISES FEEDING SOFT CX)RN FIRST Freezing lessens the value of soft com, therefore the h gh mo.sturr feed Shou d be used up as early in the season as possible, advises George A. Brown, head of the M. 8. C. an mal husbandry department More than usual, Michigan has sup­ plies this fall of this so-called soft corn, resulting from an unfavorable season and the planting of variet es requiring too long a lime to mature in this state. A flow of inquiries al­ ready has arrived at the college. Principal differences between soft corn and liard com is the mo stun­ content A given amount of dry matter, it is explained, has the same feedlng value in either mature or im­ mature com. One suggestion offered by Professor Brown suggests confln-ng the use of the high mo sture corn to cattle and hogs. Molds easily develop in unriper.ed ears and this can be dangerous when fed to horses and sheep. An­ other reason for feeding the soft com to cattle is that cows and beef ani­ mals can handle more bu k in their rations than other classes of live­ stock. Ga ns on soft com will not be as raapld as with hard grain because the animal must handle the extra mois­ ture. Normally mature .com such as No. 2 shelled yellow, has approxi­ mately 15 per cent moisture. This year some of the harvest runs as high as 40 per cent moisture. One hundred and forty-two pounds of this are needed to equal in feed'ng value 100 pounds of 15 per cent moisture corn. The Immature corn keeps best in the shock, according to Brown, and may be fed from the shock to cattie, sheep or swine.

I read of a horse, one day, that had the dis­ position of what they call a "throw up.” A good many people' are like that They "throw up" on the collar. When that horse would get up against a hard load, he would hit the tub and put his weight into the col­ lar and just the minute his weight hit’ that collar, if the wagon didn't move, he would throw up and com­ mence to kick and throw himself from side to side. The trouble with that horse was that when he was a colt he had got “up against it," and somebody had overloaded him. It absolutely discouraged the horse, ao when he hit it again he said, "I am up against it."' and just "threw up.” The devil will try to overload any­ one who is trying-to be a Christian. He will try to put a lot of things on you that don't belong there. You will be worrying, tugging and pulling at something and you will throw up your hands. Why do you throw up your hands when Jesus says to those who receive Him, "I am with you al­ ways” ? You may not be able to bear that burden but thank God that Je­ sus can. He is on the other side of the yoke. Jesus says: "Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart, and ye shall find rest unto your souls.” Matt 11:29.— Today's Gospel Truth, by Irving G. Wahlstrom. o------ South American Trade. The Germans are waging an effective cam­ paign for trade su­ premacy in South America despite the fact that they cannot deliver goods because of the British block­ ade. They are meeting with little real opposition from the United States although this country is deep­ ly concerned in bolstering its exports to Latin America not alone for the value of the trade but also to save our southern neighbors from eventual economic domination at the hands of Germany and the political and phy­ sical domination that is bound to follow. The New York Times correspond­ ent in Panama reports that the greatest disadvantage to the United States in building up its Latin Amer­ ican sales is that so many agencies for recognized American goods are held by German firms. Naturally the Germans try to sell German goods first In one South American city, for instance, the representative of an American farm machinery concern is German and in another every agent for a well knewn brand of American automobile 'ires is German. In Pan­ ama a German diplomatic representatiye is the agent for an Americanmade refrigerator and an American gas range. Incidentally he Is a bitter anti-American propagandist. The Times correspondent tells that an American consul told him of a Latin American who wanted io buy an article made in the United States. It was sold by a German agent who advised the customer to wait and he would supply him with goods made in Germany. The Latin American had to wait; the German had the exclus­ ive agency for the American goods in that territory. He was using the agency to keep American goods out of the territory, not to sell them. Although the Germans have been unable to make deliveries of Naxin^ade articles for which they have obtained orders they have been offer­ ing forfeits in the form of credits on future orders. Thus though present orders go ojifilled they are not only building up a backlog of orders, but they are committing customers in the Latin American countries to buy German goods on a when and if basis. Enough such orders is counted on to build up sentiment for a German victory in Europe. Obviously the answer is for the American firms seeking to do business thuksday. nov. i, im perate use of liquor, and bad liquor at that, which usually is the kind sold around such camps. They must be protected against immoral women who will be flocking to Batt'e Creek and the vicinity of the camp. Tliey must be protected against the wiles of the gamblers who will seek to gam by whatever means they may devise the scant pay which these young men will be given for their service. That is Michigan's job. The Liquor Control commission has it in its power to prevent the legal sale of liquor around this and such other camps as may be established. The State Police have it in their power to prevent the illegal sale of liquor. Prevent the sale of liquor around the camps and there will be far less danger from the other perils. It is a thing which must be done. We can't afford to have these young men, called perhaps against their will into the se vice, acquire immoral or intemperate habits. More than all else, we can't afford to per­ mit them to come home suffering from social diseases. If these are going into the service of the nation, it must be to their benefit as well as to the benefit of the rest of us. They must not be permitted to wreck their own lives and the best way to pre­ vent that is to keep from them the temptations which always follow the mobilization of large bodies of young men. It'S Michigan's job to protect them. Let Michigan accept her responsibil­ ity and do that job—well. —■.

He was married about a month before registration day and filed ex­ emption claims, but they were not al­ lowed by the county draft board.

Recently he dug his potatoes and had 10 bushels. The vine he exhibits bore one mammoth potato only. — Lake Odessa Wave Times. —Roy E. Eldred, 66, Calhoun coun­ ty circuit court reporter for more than 37 years, shot himself to death with a revolver shortly gefore midnight Oct 15. in a tent in which he lived with his daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Ward Rhoades, in a trailer camp near the Spaulding school, three miles south of Battle Creek. Dr. Willard N. Putnam, coroner, pro­ nounced the death a suicide. The bul­ let from the revolver entered the right side of Mr. Eldred's head, fractur­ ing his skull and piercing the brain. Death was instantaneous, the coroner said. The gun, a 1906 model, was from a collection of old guns Mr. El­ dred once made. No note was left by Mr. Eldred, the coroner said, .but he gave his 'daughter a hint of what might happen the day previous by remarking that the beautiful country­ side this time of year "would be a good place to die." Mrs. Rhoades thought nothing of the remark at the time however.' Mr. Eld-ed was alone in the tent when he fired the shot. Mr. and Mrs. Rhoades found him dead at 11:55 p. m. The body was taken to Hebb’.e”s. Mr. Eldred had been des­ pondent for some time, the coroner said. His inactivity since he resigned the court reporter’s position June 30, 1938, and ill health, contributed to the despnodency, he said. He had been a widower since 1929. in Latin America to take the agen­ cies for their goods out of German hands. It is astonishing that the ag­ encies are held by Germans but it comes from the fact that the Germans have been on the ground in South America for years, are energetic and trade minded. They are estab­ lished there and know how to deal with the South Americans. But it turns out that the very considerations that led to the Germans being grant­ ed agencies for American goods have put them in position to sabotage American trade now that they are be­ ing directed to do ao by Berlin. The answer is for the American firms either to retain Larin Americans as their representatives or to send their own employees into those countries. ------<>/“/■ ' To let the present situation continue Truth recognizes no baris to allow an impression of Amer­ Universal ican dumbness grow that is not in AvailabiHty riers.

CH MEN MICHIGAN'S FIRST DRAFT QUOTA Michigan's initial quota for the d-.aft was set at 627 men, or about three from each local draft board area. Col. Samuel Pepper, deputy direc­ tor of selective service, said a requi­ sition for that number was received from the army’s sixth corps area headqua. ters in Chicago, with orders that they be ready to enter the ser­ vice Nov. 20 for a year's military training. The announcement came as reports reached the state military headquar­ ters of a growing number of young men who have asked that their names be placed at the head of the draft lists, to speed their Induction into the , uniformed service.

CLOVER LEAF CLASS THIS FRIDAY EVE The Clover Leaf class of the Evan­ gelical Sunday school will meet this Friday evening at the home of Mra. W. C. Bassett, with Mrs. Wm. Hecker assisting. This will be an "every one vresent” meeting. Modern scientific cooks know their words. They keep up with the fastg ow ng 1 st of special terms used In cookery. They know the fine distinc­ tion between "panbrolltag,” "saute­ ing. ’ "frying.” and "braising.’’ "Panbroi tag” is one way to cook meat in a skillet on top of the stove. But home eeonom.es staff members at M 3. C. explain that the special point about panbroiltag is cooktag without added fat. without water, and with­ out a cover on the skillet. It is the method to use fo- tender chops and steaks that have fat of their own and are quickly cooked. Pour off the fat as it renders out, so the meat will not be frying. ' “Frying” is a different cooking pro­ cess. It means actually to cook in fat Sometimes the fat is deep enough to cover the food entire'y, as in frying chicken or croquette*. But one can also fry with shallow fat in a skillet Hash and meat patties are good examples of shallow-fat frying; and some meats, such as sausages and bacon, fry in their own fat. “Sauteing" is another puzzle-, all the more confusing because it comes from a French word meaning to jump. Sauteing is a cross between panbroiltag and frying. It means to brown the food in a little fat and turn it often to keep it from sticking. The word "braising” comes up again and again in meat cookery. To braise means to brown In a little hot fat, and then cook the meat ta steam —with or without added liquid. Swiss steak and post roast are good exam­ ples. These meat cuts are not so tender to start with, but, properly braised, can be cut with a fork when they come to the table. witnessed the accident on a pond at the rear of the farm of Fred Gallo­ Ord Of Ttarnks.

Ad. Northland Lure Report Shows Mont Participants Are Endeavoring To Make Payments When Due. RrbabUltat'on Planned. Michigan celebrated Thanksgiving this week with more than customary gratitude for its blessings. Business is ahead of last year. The Business Week index stands at 138.6, a new high point for the yea- which dipped to 103 last April. Department store sales are 6 per cent higher; ru­ ral sales are up 5 per cent. Because of heavy arms contracts, Michigan industrial plants have a to­ tal Of future o ders well past the half-bil'ion mark, and this amount is being swelled each week by new au­ thorisations at Washington. Small plants are getting a fa r share of the volume, too. Employment for the nation has al­ ready exceeded our 1929 peak, being 48,404,000 persons in 1940 as com­ pared with 47,925.000 for the final boom year. Michigan automobile plants are operating at full speed in o der that dealers' field stocks may be built up in anticipation of the coming arms production. Farm prices are more firm, too. The national average shows a 5 per cent rise in food prices. Price Inflation? In the judgment of leading Mlchigan industrialists, we are due for at least two yea s of record-breaking properity. Reasons are two-fold: 1. Huge defepse orders, high'ighted by a Morgenthau post-election statement that the Treasury borrow­ ing limit may be raised 20 billions. 2. Growing orders from B itain for aircraft, ordnance and ships. According to the United States News whose editor was pro-Willkie. this •'spells the greatest sustained boom in the history of this or any other count y—as far as industrial volumes are concerned. The e'ection cannot change that substantially." A boom in production, even though maintained artificially by borrowing, is likely to result in inflation of pric­ es. While the state will collect more in sales taxes when prices increase, it will also pay more to maintain pub­ lic services. The spiraling effect be­ comes hard to control. A rising market also brings inev­ itably a trail of increased labor diffi­ culties. This condition will be ve­ ga ded as normal. What, then, after the boom? We car. be thankful also that the future is unknown. The world is moving fast, and we must^o with it for bet­ ter or for worse. ' Shift To Small Town. Merchants in Michigan •‘small towns’’—places with population under 20.000—have new reasons to be thankful. The U. S. Census for 194c show’s that Michigan was the secon I in 17 states with an increase in the per­ centage of inhabitants living in small towns and ru al areas. Whereas the state was 31 per cent rural in 1930. today it is 42 per cent. Ok'ahoma had the greatest population shift, advancing from 56 to 73 per cent rural in ten years. Other states which show a greater population of small towns and ru al population than in 1930 are: Califor­ nia, Kentucky, Maryland Nevada. N. Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Oregon. Pennsylvania. Rhode Island, and Washington. Thirty-seven of the 48 states are more than 50 per cent "small town.” The spilling over of metropolitan population into suburban area has been, a factor in this trend. Decen­ tralization of industry has revitalized many communities; Henry Ford plants at the fringe of Detroit offer a fami’iar example. "Coalition" Control. In these days of foreign crisis and national security, much talk is hea d about "national unity." To achieve a semblance of coalition government. President Roosevelt in­ cluded four Republicans in his cabi­ net: Harold Ickes, Frances Perkins, Frank.Knox and Henry Stimson. A former Republican. Hen y Wallace, will be the next vice president. This same desire for tnter-party strength prompted the choice of a Democrat, Wendell L. Wlllkie. by the Republl cans, as their nominee for president. Michigan's new state government will also be bi-partisan. Its governor lieutenant governor, state treasurer and highway Commissioner will be Democrats. Secretary of state, at­ torney general, auditor genera! and state superintendent of pubi c in­ struction will be Republicans. The state legislature will remain under Republican control. The above situation, however, has its complications. An opportunity exists for evading of responsibility, or in plain words, for "buck pass ng." If the state deficit is not reduced, if pressure groups a e denied prom­ ised increases in state appropriations, who will be blamed—the governor or the legis'ature? New Economy Drive? Almost in anticipation of this sit­ uation, a new economy drive is being launched by the Michigan Public Ex­ penditure Survey, an affiliate of the Chamber of Commerce of Michigan. Expecting that better times in Michigan will increase sales tax rev­ enues substantially, the taxpayers' program, as just announced presents three demands: L Reduction of state budget at east 5 per cent for next biennium. 2.Enactment of state budget control system, including standardi­ zing reporting between local units and the state. 3. Centralized tax collection sys­ tem. Hie economy platform runs counter to these Michigan trends: 1. Every recent state administra­ tion has augmented powers at Lans­ ing—new bureaus, new commissions and new increases in payrolls. 2. The state legislature is usua'ly susceptible to pressure groups. 3. Home taxing units favdr mo e rather than less, state aid. Civil Service. The civil service amendment, which becomes a part of the state constitution, has rigid provisions that are far-reaching in effect. They will put Michigan into the front rank of merit system states. ‘ According to a commonly accepted interpretation of the ainendment, a state officer will be limited to two appointments—presumab’y a deputy and a personal secretary. All other employees will be hired and fired by the civil service commis­ sion. whose director Is a czar beyond reach of the legislature. Furthermore, funds for operating the system are automatically provid­ ed for by the amendment. Aga'n legis ators are powerless to interfere. The prospect of Governor-elect Murray D. Van Wagoner being unable to b ing more than a legal advisor and a personal secretary to the exe­ cutive office on January 2 is astonishinngly unorthodox, to say the least. Polit.cians can hardly believe it will happen. Mr. VanWagoner is studying selec­ tion of the commission, and it is pos­ sible that Governor Dickinnson may go through the legality of naming his successor's appointments on the com­ mission in order that advance prepa­ rations can be started at once.

Two hundred and seven Barry county farm families now have stan­ dard farm security administration loans according to a report prepa-ed tor the state by Kenneth Cavanagh, Barry county FSA supervisor. Of the 207 cases, 105 were current on maturities; 18 had paid from 75 to 99 per cent; 19 had paid from 50 to 74 per cent; 28 had paid 25 to 49 per cent and 37 had paid from noth­ ing to 24 per cent of the amounts due. In considering the. above figures it is necessary to consider that the far­ mers who took out the loans were those for the most vart who could get no credit from banks, business or other loan agencies and who usually had but very small assets not over­ come by liabilities. The average of the 22.008 acres farmed by FSA cli­ ents in the county is. less productive Michigan's whitetali deer will attract on estimated 170,000-plus hunters to northern counties during the 15-day than the average of all farms by season which opens November 15.

But the campaign of Mr. Willkie and the ideals which his followers held and still hold are based upon principles. One cannot set aside principle* just because he is once de­ feated. If he does, he can only lose his own self-respect. The principles for which Mr. Will kie fought must be maintained now and always. It therefore becomes the duty of the opposition in the Congress to scrutinize with utmost care every measure presented no matter by whom, and to oppose any measu’e which may seem to be con­ trary to the public welfare. This well may be done and still preserve the spirit of unity in the country. No man, not even Mr. Roosevelt, is infallible. Many a time in the past he has stood for or against measu es on which in later days he has been glad that he failed to win support. For instance, he opposed Senator Vandenberg’s federal insurance of bank deposits. That was some years ago. But during the campaign Mr. Roosevelt was bo happy that the law had been enacted that he sought to claim credit for that legislation. Today we face a grave internation­ al situation. Mr. Roosevelt has bun­ gled some phases of that It is well that the members of the Congress and the general public keep careful watch over further moves on the in­ ternational chess board and promptly serve notice upon the President, if at any time he seems to be making a wrong move. Unity we must have for the pre­ servation of our democracy, but we must have likewise an alert public and official mind which will aid when the President seems right but will stoutly oppose whenever he seems go­ ing in the wrong direction. Sometimes the President must get saved from himself. In that way only can democracy be made to func­ tion and that is what we all most de­ sire.—Grand Rapids Herald.

PREPARED D63C The value of this company’s prepared­ ness to protect your telephone service in emergencies was proven once more last week while storm-broken trees and branches smashed great gaps through Michigan’s long distance telephone lines. Riding a 60-mile gale from the western plains, the shrieking blasts caused wide-spread destruction throughout Michigan. But a well-built, well-protected plant minimized damage to telephone service. And experienced telephone men, Ready When Needed and Where 1500 of them... ready when needed, and where... patrolled the lines, repaired the breaks, even as the storm raged. Only because of their experience, and long, careful training in standardized methods and with standardized tools and -equipment, were these motorized and mechanized forces enabled to beat the storm’s damage and restore service rapidly. This company’s preparedness is an asset to Michigan's telephone service. �raj KAUIVILU Barry and (mtmiri Eaton Go. ad vertteere Dated below aottott yoar patwge la te tinlma ■■ teof represent, and Um; will ba found reUaMs aad reapoaMMe te every raapaal PhjMctaaa aad Bargn— W.

Reveals Peril To Freedom. New Yo k—Again pointing to the blackout of democracy in the eight southern "poll tax states," the news­ paper PM reveals this evil as the greatest destroyer of the ballot in American life. At the time of its inception, the ar­ ticle states, the poll tax was defended as a means of barr.ng the Negro from the polls and still allowing white people to cast their ballots. By 1938 it was found that 64 pen cent of those disfranchised were white. The PM article continues. "In some of these states the tax Is cumulative over the period of nonvoting. An Alabaman of 45, seeking to vote for the first time, must pay a tax of $36 to become eligible.” Revealing the extent of the Amerlean disfranchisement. It was shown that in 1938 only 3.4 per cent of the adult population in Mississippi voted. In Georg a, only 4.5 per cent went to the polls and the average for the eight states was less than 10 pecenL Politicians show litt’e or no con­ cern over tiie 90 per cent of the popu­ lation thus kept from the ballot box because they are not responsible to them for their actions. This may ac­ count for the reactionary attitude taken by those elected by the 10 per cent upon measures that would bene­ fit the great bulk of people residing in those states. PM added. "They cannot protest. They cannot vote. If this is a free democratic system, they may well say, then the price is too high. If this control of the landless peasant by the landed aristocracy Is not Fas­ cism. what is It? It is not demo­ cracy.” | MORE PAVING ON M-87 NEXT YEAR Assurance from Murray D. Van­ Wagoner, state highway comm.s*ioner, that reconstruct on of M-37 from the Kent county ine to Middleville w.U be placed on the spring construeton program was given to the Good Roods committee of the Association of Commerce of Grand Rapids, which has sought for years to have this im­ provement made. The committee, of wh ch A. B. Burkholder is chairman, di ected A. T. McFadyen. sec etary of the Asso­ ciation, to thank the highway com­ missioner and urge that it be g ven preference on the construction pro­ gram on account of the importance of this road as a military highway. The committee some t me ago call­ ed Van Wagoner s attention that a great volume of national defense ma­ terials would be transported ove- this road from Muskegon. Grand Rapids and other points to Fort Custer. The highway department a'ready has improved M-37 from Mddlev lle to Hastings and Battle Creek and Van Wagoner w ote that a study also is being made of the north belt of Battle Creek to connect M-37 with tthe road leading into the Fort Cus­ ter super-highway. The highway commissioner assured the Good Roads committee that he "thoroughly agreed” with the com­ mittee as to the "vital importance of the highway." He added that final survey and p'ans for the MiddlevilleKent county line stretch have been completed and a preliminary study for the balance of the project now is being made. The highway, he said, likely will be relocated beginning at the county line to parallel the Mich­ igan Central railroad tracks in order to eliminate many curves in the present road. —The first of a scries of land pur­ chases which will expand Kellogg airport to a mile square were approv­ ed by the Battle Creek city commis­ sion.

The second draft call, originally schedued for Dec. 2. has been postponed un­ til Jamia, y, by which time the Fort Custer center will be ready to receive the conscripts. ' Postponement, of the second draft call was annourfced by the 6th Corps A ea headquarters in Chicago, where army officers said regular recruiting had been so successful that more men were not needed at once.

(From the Townsend Weekly.) Founder Asks No Cred.t. Washington—“Action in the nexa Congress!”—that Is Dr. Townsend’s motto. Ready for the coming year, the Founder vicited Washington for a consultation with Otis J. Bouina, di­ rector of the Washington legislative bureau. “I do not care unde- whaat name our program is enacted,” Saud the Doctor. "They can call It the Rooseve t bill or , the Downey bill. It makes no matter who gets the cred­ it But something is going to be done in 1941 to put this program of pen­ sions and recovery into law. We have no time to waste. We will go forward. "As soon as the new Congress convenes, M . Bouma, whom I have again named to head our Washington activities, will resume the- pupular Flash bulletin, and we will wage an aggressive campaign for enactment of the Plan in '41. "The country is demanding a more adequate pension program. Presi­ dent Roosevelt himself recognizes the present Social Security Act is utter­ ly lacking. He says he p oposes to do something about it. -Through Senator Downey he has announced he will not veto the Town­ send bill when it passes both houses of Congress. We are glad to hear that We accept it at its face value. "But that is not enough. We pro­ pose to give the Democratic admin­ istration a chance to put through our own bill Under their own sponsorship —under a different name, if neces­ sary, any name at all. I have no pride of authorship, but I have a very real concern in the welfare of our people, and I believe the time has come to forget rivalries and jealous­ ies, and get together for the good of the Ame ican people.

Mich. The company an­ nounced construction would begin at once to fill a contract to supply ma­ chine guns to Britain. Employment will be p ovided for 2,000 men. com­ pany officials said." Forty-eight hours later, a United Press dispatch to Detroit: "Washington—Great Britain hopes to obtain financial aid from the Unit­ ed States next year as well as ships, planes and munitions. British Am­ bassador Lord Lothian said today after an eighty-minute conference with President Roosevelt" "Clear Mandate." Arthur Krock Wash ngton corres­ pondent of the New York Times, ob"The impression which seems to prevail among Britons here (Wash­ ington) is that the election gave Mr. Roosevelt a clear mandate to render the fullest so t of such aid to the Empire, and that Lord Lothian can properly proceed on this interpreta­ tion." While the Marquess of Lothian, his Brittanic Majesty's present ambas­ sador to Washington, says frankly that Britain is reaching the end of her cred ts in the United States, here is what Sir Cecil Spr ng-Rice wrote to Secretary Lansing on July 1, 1917, in the similar capacity of Brit­ ish ambassador to Washington: He declared that the financial posi­ tion of Great B itain was "of an ur­ gent and critical character . . . There is danger that the ability of His Majesty’s government to effect payments in Amer.ca from today on­ ward will be In jeopardy. ... A collapse of the exchange will be no less disastrous than a great military s elude a third of a billion dollars in allocation to Michigan industrial plants. British arms awards, such as the machine gun plant near Plymouth (in Wayne county), will swell this total. Econom c maps and charts for the nation, such as the Business Week feature, invariably show Michigan to be a “b ight" spot. The state is enjoying an unusual prosperity. Christmas retail sales are clhnb ng upward. Alfred Sloan, General Motors mag­ nate, terms the boom "synUietic." We present the above interpreta­ tive picture at the risk of being sub­ jected to “name-calling”—a fifth col­ umnist, a defeatist propagandist, and so on. And so pardon a personal note. It was in 1758 that our family forefathers, two brothers, fled from Germany to America to escape Ger­ man oppression. They fought as Americans in the Revolutionary war. In 1917 we enlisted on ou- 18th birth­ day, served overseas in England and France, and returned home after 19 months of military service. We desire to repeat an earlier ob­ servation: Michigan is getting, more than the average state, an economic stake in wa- trade. Let us think calmly of the possible consequences whle there is still time to do so. Michigan Farmer. The 1939 income of the Michigan farmer was 93 per cent of the 1929 income. Our state ranked 12th in point of percentages of the 48 states. And this in spite of the fact that agricultural commodities in general dropped 63 per cent in prices f om 1929 to 1933 while production declin­ ed only 6 per cent. Michigan’s agricultural diversity— fruit, vegetables, gra'n and livestock —and its climatical benefits of scar­ city from drouth all have made the Michigan farmer better off than the average American farmer—believe it or not!

Public 1 brarians and library trustess of seven Michigan counties had returned to their homes Saturday af­ ter being told during a special tra nLng course in Chicago that lib raries have an impo tant role ni the nation­ al defense program. The course, conducted at the Univera’ity of Chicago under arrange­ ments made by the Kellogg Founda­ tion, opened Monday morning and closed Frday afternoon. A total of 103 librarians and library trustees of the seven counties of the Founda­ tion’s Michigan community health p oject attended. The importance of libraries to na­ tional defense was stressed by two of the instructors for the course. Prof. J. H. Kolb of the Univnrity of Wiscon-, sin’s department of rural sociology, and Prof. H. Douglas of the Univer­ sity of Chicago’s depa tment of econ­ omics. Good books, they pointed out. are educat onal, and well-educated citi­ zens are needed for a successful de­ mocracy. Faith of citizens in the American form of government, they saiid. Is one of the strongest defenses of the nation. They urged the librarians to exer­ cise care in select'ng new books for the libra ies, and to publicize books which would be of value in bolstering the country’s defenses. The course was planned to give help in the selection of books for ru­ ral libraries; to analyze rural com­ munity problems; to discuss recent books for children, the wo k of the library trustee, and practical and in­ expensive publicity, and plans for in­ tegrating the public and school libra­ ry services.

MICHIGAN BELL IN NATIONAL DEFENSE George M Welch, president at the Michigan Bell Telephone company, said that the company is especially prepared by "the experience of its people”’ to assume full responsibility in connection with the National De­ fense program. Speaking before an audience of more than 1.000 persons gathered at the Masonic Temple in Detroit for the annual meeting of Detroit members of the Telephone Pioneers of Amer­ ica. Welch pointed out that nearly 65 per cent of the company’s employees, (including 7p per cent of the men, have had 10 or more years of service in telephone work. “I know that material aspects of our company’s National Defense structure « e Important.” the pres dent said. "We must have and do have good credit and the ability to raise funds promptly for needed ex­ pansion—the buildings—the central office apparatus—the outside cables, lines and other plant—motor vehicles, and all that] to do the job. "Yet, wtihout an experienced per­ sonnel, we could not say that wc arc prepared. There is no substitute for experience in the telephone business. These times remind us of our grati­ tude for an employee organization geared for the job by many years of experience and attuned to its res­ ponsibility by an enduring loyalty to the public service.

If a person is alow about answer­ ing his telephone, the person at the other end of the line la often irri­ tated. with the result that frequent­ ly when a number is not answered promptly, the individual who called hangs up. Then when the called person finally does reach the tele* phone and no one answers, he is annoyed, not at himself, but at the telephone company for having dis­ turbed him unnecessarily. Another bad telephone habit of many people Is too great reliance upon memory in the matter of tele­ phone numbers. Even the best of memories, In the words of Bobble Burns, “gang aft a-gley.” It Is an easy matter to transpose digits. For example, the number 3412 might be dearly remembered a dozen times and then, by some queer slip of the memory, evolve Itself, the next time it is called, into 3142 and 3214. This frequently happens, and to avoid that, telephone ompanies advise their patrons to keep at baud a list of the numbers they call most fre­ quently. In fact, they provide spe­ cial memorandum pads or booklet* for this very purpose. Still another telephone habit which Is extremely annoying is when a person speaks In so low a tone of voice or with such poor enun­ ciation that it becomes dlfflult to understand. This may lead to wrong numbers in the case of manual tele­ phones when the operator fails to hear the number correctly, or elsa she may have to ask the party to repeat the number, which at once places him or her In an Irrlteted frame of mind. Nervous people often jiggle the hook when waiting for a number, not realising that if they move the hook rapidly, instead of slowly, they fan to flash the operator; whfle those using dial telephones some­ times move the switchhook during dialing, or retard the turn of the dial, either of which may cause a wrong number. All such Improper use of the tele­ phone results not only in annoyance to the person who is doing the tele­ phoning, but also frequently causes errors and annoys the Innocent vic­ tims of those also. SEEING EYE” DOG LE.VBIL’D OWNER ON ERL.u.3 When Miss Ethel Stereos, of New Haven, Conn., who Is blind wishes to pay her telephone bill, she just says to her “Seeing Eye" shepherd dog: “Come on, Isa. let's go and pay the telephone bill.” Whereupon, month after month, Isa has led her mistress through the hu«y streets of New Haven to the telephone build­ ing on Court Street and then around to the side door, because Isa does net like revolving doors, and thence past the desks and tables to the cashier's counter. But recently the telephone busi­ ness office .was moved to a new build­ ing. The office manager then called Miss Stevens and offered to meet her at the door the next time she came. Isa remembered Mr. Loring and shook hands with him, and he led them into the lobby. Isa took pains to inspect the place, and after she was convinced that all was well, she and her mistress were escorted to the cashier’s counter. There Miss Stevens took out her telephone bUl and some money and held them down for Isa to observe. ••You see. Isa," she said, “this is where we pay the telephone bll. When Mlns Stevens left the new telephone building, she was asked if she wouldn’t prefer to telephone be­ fore she came the next time, so that she could be met. “Oh, no,” she said, “that won’t be necessary. I’ll just tell Isa we’re going to the telephone company and she'll bring mo right to the same spot at the counter. Now that she has been here ohce, she knows the way perfectly.” For five years, day and night, Isa has been Miss Stevens* constant com­ panion. Not only does she accompany her to pay the telephone bill, but other places are equally familiar.

It was eleven years ago that an American telephone operator first felt the thrill of those words as she reported to a subscriber that his overseas telephone connection was established. Even today, with telephone ser­ vice extending from this country’ to all of the world’s continents and to most of its countries, and with 93 per cent of the world’s telephones within reach of Bell System tele­ phones. the average long-distance telephone operator feels some tin­ gle of excitement as she receives a subscriber’s call for London or Paris, or It may be for Melbourne or Capetown, for Buenos Aires or Tokio. Most Calls Are for Americans To the overseas operators, how­ ever, working at the switchboards in New York and San Francisco and Miami, Fla., where the overseas radiotelephone circuits terminate, each call la simply another incident in their day’s regular duties. These operators handled more than 50,000 overseas messages last year. A call to Europe may be to any one of 26 countries on that conti­ nent, but most of the calls are to Great Britain or France. Such calls almost always are for a particular person, and in 65 per cent of the case* they are for an American traveling or residing abroad. Ont of every 100 calls, 20 are likely to be for persons staying tn hotels. within reach of any Poll System telephone. Last year n one than 50.090 radiotelephone calls were handled at the American Telephone and Telegraoh Company'* overseas switchboards cl New York. San Francisco, About 75 per cent of the calls are wanted as soon as It is possible to complete them, but the remaining 25 per eent are filed for completion at a later time, or even a later day The proportion of calls Hied in ad­ vance of the time wanted is due In large part to differences in time of day between this country and Eu­ rope. Overseas operators not only must know how to handle the switch­ board. but they must know their geography. For example, Vienna Is Vienna In thia country, but in Eu­ rope it is Wien, while Leghorn be­ comes Livorno, and Munich is Mbnchen. Cails Are Handled In English Since overseas calls are dealt with by speech, the question of lan­ guage come* to the fore. In Europe, the general rule is that any inter­ national service,«ay bo operated In the language agreed upon between the telephone administrations, and in the radio telephone services throughout the world, a similar agreement Is made in the matter of language. Of the 24 distant countries or ter* rl torles In which Bell System over­ seas circuits terminate, the native language is English in the case of five. French In two, Spanish In thir­ teen, Portuguese tn one. Dutch one. Japanese one. and Chinese one. All of these circuits, however, are op­ erated in English. Th* oversea* services have shown marked and continued improve- men; 5 since their Inauguration eleven years ago. Then the aver­ age limo required to complete a New York-London call was about 45 minutes. Speed on similar calls now averages between ten and twelve minutes. Many calls between terminal cities arc completed in one or two minutes, the callers remain­ ing at the telephone as is the prac­ tice with long distance calls In this country. Christmas Holidays Bring Peak The season of the year when the overseas traffic is taxed to its ut­ most capacity Is during Ute Christ­ mas holidays. It is at that time of year that thoughts turn particularly to families and friends separated by distance, and the telephone of­ fers a means to exchange greetings and to hear the actual voice* of loved one*. From the inauguration of the service, the peak for over­ seas calls has always been reached on December 24 and December 25, and arrangements for calls are often made considerably i« ad­ vance. In the entire history of overseas telephony, only th* most harmoni­ ous relations bar* prevailed be­ tween th* operators her* abroad. Working against time and under pressure, and sometimes wfth a language problem inyetved, so that It was difficult to understand and to be understood, the operator* hav* shown a patience, tolerance and philosophy which sp«aka well for their self-disci pita* and earnest­ ness. With them, tae call’s the thing. �GOWEN BRAND OLEO Mrs. Arville Everetts is work'ng at | C. R. Plumley spent Sunday in the American Legion hospital, Battle ; Detroit | Mrs. C. R.
