Wrestling starts January llfh
A far cry from the show and
fakerv of the orofessional wres­
tling seen on television, high
school wrestling is fast becom­
ing popular and is the fastest
growing sport in the mid-west.
Maple Valley wrestling coach,
Bill Hecker Jr. has formed a
wrestling team and has set up a
schedule of five matches. The
first of these matches will take
place at the Maple Valley
school, against Ionia at 7:00 on
January 11.
Hecker, who was on the
wrestling team when he attend­
ed Nashville high school, is par­
ticularly interested in wrestling
because of the opportunity it
offers for participation by small­
er as well as the large boys.
Hecker said that in addition to
the opportunity it offers the
participants, it is also an ex­
citing spectator sport. Hecker
said that in high school wres­
tling the match is made up of
three, two minute rounds.

To 'pick up t r ee s
The Nashville street depart­
ment has announced that
Christmas trees will be pick-

ed the week of January 10th.
The trees must be left be­
tween the sidewalk and the
curb.

Members of the Maple Valley wrestling team get into shape for
the first match of the season on January 11.

The Maple Valley high school plans to have adult evening class­
es this winter providing there is enough interest to mane it worth
while.
The classes would meet one night per week for two hours with the
night set by the class and teacher. It is hoped they would meet on
Monday or Tuesday. The fee will be $5. 00 plus any materials
needed for the class.
We should have at least twelve people.ih a class.
Some interest has been indicated for Modem Math, Art, Women's
Recreation and Commercial; hoWever, any subject will be offered
if at least twelve people sign up and we can obtain a teacher.
There will be an organizational meeting next Tuesday, January
11 at 7:30 pm in the high school auditorium with classes to start
the following week. All interested persons should attend this short
but important meeting.
Anyone interested but unable to attend the meeting January 11
should call the high school office before n'ext Thursday.
If there are any questions regarding the program, feel free to call
the high school office. 653-6868.

Republicans were the only par­
ty to file nominating petitions
for village office this year. The
last day tor such action was
Monday, January 3.
Petitions for the various offi­
ces were filed with the clerk.
Mrs. Ada Skedgell. with the pro­
per number of signatures.
For village president, I.
James Rizor; clerk. Mrs. Ada
Skedgell; treasurer, Mrs Mar­
guerite W ilson; trustees for two
years. Henry Fedewa, Frank
Scramlin and Gaylord Gray, and
for assessor. Carl Tuttle. There
were no petitions filed for the
village committee posts. This
committee, however, can be

elected'by write-ins.
Had there been more than
one nominee for any office it
would have been necessary to
hold a primary election, but
since this was not the case the
primary will be eliminated, and
the village election will be
held in March. This change in
election laws came about with
the abolition of the caucus sys­
tem and the change to a pri­
mary system.

T ax benefits aid seniorcitizens chief resigns
We now have the affidavit
forms for senior citizens to file
for a new property tax exemp­
tion under the State Law passed
by the Legislature in 1965.
The exemption of $2500 bn
the State equalized value of a
person's property will be avail­
able to taxpayers over 65 who
can meet certain other eligibil­
ity requirements.
The law is not effective until
January 1st, 1966 so it does not
effect the winter taxes that are
being paid at this time.
To be eligible a person must
be 65 as of December 31st,
1965 and own or be- buying his
home.

The total value of al) reales­
tate that is owned in the state
must not exceed $10, 000 of
state equalized valuation.
The total combined income
of the husband and wife and any
other concurrent owners may
not exceed $5000 for the pre­
ceding calendar year.
A veteran who is 65 and get­
ting a veteran's exemption must
choose between the two exemp­
tions as he cannot collect both.
1 will hold office hours at the
Castle-ton Township Hall on
January 7 and 14 and at other
times as it becomes necessary.
Hours at the Township Hall w ill
be 1-4 pm on the above dates.

Those who are interested in
an exemption will need to bring
with them the following: Social
Security number; tax notice or
receipt; deed; evidence of other
real estate owned in Michigan;
birth certificate. In case there
is no deed or birth certificate
bring other evidence to show
proof.
The deadline for filing appli­
cations will be March 15th,
1966.

After serving eight months as
Nashville Police Chief. Donald
C. Lair has submitted his resig­
nation that he may accept a po­
sition with a steel corporation
in California, his former home.
His resignation will become
effective January 20.
At the same time, Lawerence
J. Wood, who has been assisting
Chief Lair a few hours each
week, also turned in his resig­
nation to become effective the
same date
The village council will take
action at their next meeting.
January 13, and no doubt mean­
while, will be attempting to
seek new officers.

The first round starts with
both boys standing and the ob­
ject is to put the opponent down
on the mat.
The second round starts with
one participant on his handsand
knees. His opponent has his
arms over his back. The object
of this round is for the bottom
man to escape and get control
of the top man.
The third round is the reverse
of this situation.
A wrestler who downs an op­
ponent receives two points. An
escape counts one point and a
complete reversal of position
counts two points. A predica ■
ment counts two points and a
point is given to the opponent
if a wrestler stalls or uses an il­
legal hold.
If a pin is obtained the win­
ning wrestler's team receives
five team points. If the match _
is won on points the team r e ceives three team points. Heck­
er says that wrestling is a re­
markably safe sport and one that
all weight classes may partici­
pate in. He said that many
school systems are promoting it
in upper elementary and jr.
high levels. '

Last Wednesday morning at
breakfast, Mother announced
that site was going to get t It e
whole family ready and we
would all go to Chicago for a
short holiday. So zip-- and
away we went.
No one gave Mother much of
an argument. We were all ready
to goof off for a while.
Chicago neve. fails to fascin­
ate me. Of the big citieS* 1 have
been in, Chicago stands out as
the friendliest. This most re­
cent trip just helped to bring
this out more.
When we started to go up to
our rooms, the elevator at tile
Sherman Hotel was rather crowd­
ed. We al) stood facing the door
and waiting for the automatic
elevator to start and just before
it took off a rather fat little man
stepped aboard and the door
closed behind him. He stood
facing the crowd in the elevator,
put his hands in his pockets,.,
cleared his throat and said. "1
suppose you are all wondering
why I called this meeting. "
As the kids and I were walk­
ing down the street Thursday, a
young man stopped us to ask
directions. It turned out that he
is from Kenya, is going to Mi­
ami University, Ohio on a schol­
arship, and was just visiting
Chicago, allalone,fora couple
c: days. He had dinner with us
and we were able to have a long
talk and to become good friends.
He taught school in Kenya, and
will go back to teach when he
finishes his studies here.
We were particularity happy
to have our children meet Mr.
Kamau Kimui. It was a real ed­
ucation for them to talk w ith
someone who is from a differ­
ent culture and different circumstances than we.

spent the week walking around
on his toes with his back up and
his tail puffed up. They never
really tangled because the dog
knew enough to stop before the
cat shredded her ears.

Kelli Knoll, who is four years
old was over to our house the
other day. I asked her if her
grandmother had visited them'
on Christmas.
"I don't have a grandmother,"
Kelli told me.
For a while Kelli and I went
around and around about the
grandmother bit. I said 1 knew
she had a grandmother and she
insisted she didn't have one.
"As a matter of fact, Kelli, "
I said, "I know you have two
grandmothers. ”
"I have three. " Kelli said,
"Grandma Marshall. Grandma
Knoll and Grandma Gillett. "
She bobbed her head in a "so
there smartie" way and went
back to her playing with dolls.
If my friend is right we have
just about escaped the bad weath­
er for the winter.
1 have this very optomistic
friend who holds to the theory
that winter weather does not
start until after the first of the
year (he is correct so far) and
that the spring weather starts a­
bout the first of February. Let's
hope he is right about that. Ac­
cording to his weather chart we
can have no more than 25 or 30
days of bad stuff and then the
nice weather starts.
Twas over to the school this
morning and already the teach­
ers and the kids are talking a­
bout spring vacation. Hope

To establish highway safety research institute
A highway safety research in­
stitute initially involving at
least $10 million will be estab­
lished by the University of Mich­
igan to develop a comprehen sive approach to highway safe­
ty, President Harlan Hatcher
announced today.
A $10 million grant from the
US automotive industry for the
institute was described by uni­
versity officials as the largest
corporate gift ever received by
a university for any purpose.
The new U-M institute will be
housed in a laboratory building
to be constructed on the Nonh
Campus with grants totaling
$4. 000, 000 from Ford Motor
Company and the General Mo­
tors Corporation. Operating ex­
penses for the first five year
period will be underwritten by a
$6,000, 000 grant from the Auto­
mobile Manufacturers Associ­
ation.
The institute will coordinate
studies of highway transporta­
tion and undertake a broad sys­
tems approach to needed re­
search in this field. Dr. Hatcher
said.
This new program has been
reviewed with Secretary of
Commerce John T. Conner who
expressed his support of in­
creased private research efforts
in the field of highway safety.
The Secretary stated that,
"Increased national efforts in­
cluding university and private
industry support will be essen­
tial to assure substantial reduc­
tion in the-level of current traf­
fic fatalities and accident in­
jury rate, and the resulting eco­
nomic and social loss. This pro­
gram along with other private
and governmental efforts will
go far toward achieving an in­
tegrated attack upon the pro­
blems of highway safety."
"The automobile is truly a
national institution, " Dr. Hatch­
er commented, "and it effects
every aspect of our daily lives."
The benefits of automotive
transportation need no elaborstion or defense. Yet almost
50,000 Americans are killed on
Jur-highways every year, and

our highways every year, and
far more are seriously injured.
It is as a social, psychological
human phenomenon that high­
way transportation demands far
more exhaustive research than '
it has yet received.
"It is to the great,credit of the automotive industry that itrecognizes this need, and has

OfSssr in
Army PFC Jerry L. Slocum,
son of Kenneth R. Slocum, 826
E. Washington, Nashville, and
other members of the 24th In­
fantry Division participated in
Exercise VICTORY EXPRESS, a
nine-day field training exercise
in Germany, which ended'Dec.

The exercise covers 1, 600
square miles and includes more
than 25,000 men and 6,000
vehicles. Elements of the 3rd
Infantry Division Brigade, act­
ing as aggressor forces, probed
for weaknesses in the 24th In­
fantry Division defense under
simulated combat conditions.
Slocum participated in weap­
ons firing and various defensive
maneuvers as part of a program
to maintain the year-round
combat effectiveness of his
unit.
The 18-year-old soldier, a
combat construction specialist

BIG PROBLEM
A unique solution to at least
temporarily quell the farmers’
cries over the US Government
farm program has been proposed
in Washington which has partic­
ular significance for Michigan.
Originally proposed by US
Sen. George McGovern, of South
Dakota, the measure has been
introduced in the House by
Michigan's own Rep. John C.
Mackie, who represents the
Genesee-Lapeer District.
Farmers have for several years

screamed that the goveriment
should get completely ouvot’
th. ir business and stop payutg
people money not to grow'certain crops.

"At first I thought we ought
to get the government out.put
1 did a little studying when 1
got to Washington and decided
that wasn't practical," says
Mackie.
The first-term Congressman
had a farm of his own in Holt,
south of Lansing, during the
years he served as Michigan’s
highway commissioner. He e:.
perienced a sharp run-in with
the Federal government over a
small amount of wheat acreage.
He plowed"it under after a ser­
ies of protests.
- So he knows well, and sym­
pathizes with, the farmer's
view of the farm program and
policies.
Information gathered in Wash­
ington indicated to Mackie that
McGovern had a sound idea. He
received permission for the Sen­
ator to put the bill through the
House. /
Now known as the McGovemMackie bill, the proposal has
been dubbed the World Food
and Nutrition Act
It proposes to solve the Amer­
ican farm surplus problem and
the world's starvation problem
by paying US farmers for grow­
ing food to be used in an ex­
panded Food for Peace program.
The food would be bought from

the farmers and "sold, exchang­
ed or donated to nations with­
out adequate nutritional sup­
plies. "
Big trouble is things change
too fast. Food scientists are al­
ready predicting a food shortage
so severe by 1970 that millions
of people will starve. This, des­
pite all the food the US can
grow and export plus what other
can produce.
Georg Borgstrom, internat­
ionally famous MSU food auth­
ority and author of a new book,
" The Hungry Planet, " writes
that the population explosion
makes it nearly impossible to
keep up the present, inadequate
level of food production. He
urges an immediate and massive
effort be made to face up to
this growing problem.
There is every indication that
new legislation dealing with
food for the world's hungry
should be undertaken soon, but
only after the best possible un­
derstanding of all the problems
involved has been grasped.

NEW SOLUTION
Pressure will be on in 1966
for the legislature to provide
funds to students who choose to
attend private colleges in M ichigan.
The arguments presented by
officials of the 17 private
schools, including church re­
lated institutions, make it ap­
pear to be a case of six-of-one
and-half-a-dozen-of-the-other
where taxes are concerned.
An association of these col­
leges contends, however, that
its proposal for state grants
would save millions of dollars
in the rising cost of operating
the state-supported collegesand
universities.

A tuition grant plan proposed
by the group would differ from
the present state scholarship in
that the funds would be allottee
without competition among the
prospective students.
It would be based entirely on
financial need of students wish­
ing to attend private schools.
The theory of the savings to
the state is based on the idea
that the present private schools
have room, in most cases, for
more students. The state-sup­
ported institutions are. for the
most part, bursting at the en­
rollment seams.

Percentages of Michigan stu­
dents attending the private
schools have dropped although
the numbers have increased.
If students were given grants
for private college tuition on a
noncompetitive basis, this
would lessen the need for added
public facilities and thus de­
crease the budget expenditure
for the state-supported colleges
and universities, the private
, school group argues.

are just thinking about going.

the Youth for Understanding
program.
They arrived November 27.
and will return to Mexico City
on January 24. The-boys, both
juniors, are attending the Ma­
ple Valley high school during
their stay.
Both boys find the classes in
America much easier than the
studies at home, where they
take ten subjects and attend
school ten months a year.
Fernando attends a private
school in Mexico City and plans
to become a chemical engin­
eer. He is also a talented mu­
sician, playing the piano.
Xavier has been enrolled in
a military school the past four
years, and hopes to become an
experimental physicist. Both
lads plan to contihue their ed­
ucation at the University of
Mexico. Fernando was a guest
in the Peabody home two years
ago on a similar Youth Ex­
change program.
The youths have had an en­
joyable experience exchanging
ideas with theit new American
friends, and telling of the Mexi­
can traditions connected with
Christmas and New Year-celebrations.
They enjoy our American
music, dancing, foods--al­
though they are too bland for
them--they believe our meat is
"the best in the world, " and
they find the residents here very
friendly. They don’t care for
the cold weather, nor the snow,
they aren't too fond of some of
our "icy cold" foods, and they
have had to change their hours
of eating very extensively.
In Mexico they eat breakfast
at about 7 am; have a very big
meal at 2 to 3 pm, complete
with soup, rice or salad, meat
or chicken course and the des­
sert course. Often they liave a
snack or a lunch at 7 to 8 pm,
and then a bigger lunch at 9 or
10 pm. Both of the young men
come from homes where there
are three or four servants.
Both boys enjoy basketball,
soccer, swimming, camping,
horseback riding, and are es­
pecially fond of bull fights-which they say are the only
thing that suits on time in Mex­
ico. Fernando has a younger
brother in the States at the pres­
ent time, and he will join him
for a try at skiing.
The student body of Maple
Valley high school and all others
who are interested in meeting
these young Mexican youths are
urged to attend the Open House.

G roup will

A group ot Vermontville res­
idents representing the various
organizations and clubs of the
community have banded to.
form a Civic Improvement asso­
ciation.
The purpose is to discuss var­
ious ways and means to pro­
mote the community and per­
haps select a few major pro­
jects to work on.
The group met Tuesday eve­
ning, December 29 in the Pub­
lie Library.

Fernando Oviedo plays the piano while Xavier Zabata and Bryan

change student at one time.

From the chambers of the State Legislature to the far
comers of Michigan's outdoors, conservation made farreaching strides in 1965. Some of its biggest gains — im­
mediate and potential — were authored by Michigan law­
makers who passed the most impressive slate of top
conservation measures in the 44-year history of the Con­
servation Department. High on die list of stand-out legis­
lation were bills providing state controls to safeguard
private and public interests against indiscriminate filling
and dredging (bottom photo) in inland waters and the Great
Lakes. Sportsmen, too, had plenty to thank legislators for
in '65. Among other things, they found themselves no
longer saddled by costly bounty payments on foxes and
bobcats. Also, the year's legislation set the stage for
hunting wild turkeys (middle photo) for the first time in
modern Michigan history, and resurrected the long-lost
sport of quail shooting in 15 southern counties. It was a
year which saw forest fire damage at an all-time low (top
picture). Within the last 12 months, Michigan’s new fish­
eries program started living up to promises of taking bold
steps to provide more sport. Other headline action took
shape when plans for a 10-year, $133 million state park
expansion program were unveiled.

�THE NEWS, Nashville. Michigan, Thursday, January 13, 19tib

ba cks tree t barome ter
Les Boldrey was in the other
day and we got to talking about
the skating down on his pond.
Each year Les allows the kids
to skate on the little pond be­
hind his house.
The Boldreys enjoy having the
kids come there to skate and
they only ask that the children
behave themselves, which Les
says they have always done.
There is one b*it of a problem
though with the pond. Snow ac­
cumulates on it and before Jpe
kids can skate it must be shov­
eled off.
Les does not have the time to
spend shoveling, and it would
take the better part of a day for
one man to do it alone. The ’
kids, or most of them, are too
little to do much shoveling, so
Les has made an appeal to the
fathers (maybe the mothers too)
to help the kids out by keeping
the pond free of snow.
As I said, the Boldreys have
been most generous in sharing
their skating pond with the chil­
dren. The least the fathers
could do is to give him a hand
by helping to keep it shoveled.

Betty Christie of the Vt-W
Auxiliary has issued an appeal
for the names and addresses of
all boys from the area who are
in Vietnam. The Auxiliary
wants to do something for these
boys, send them cards, etc.
Betty would appreciate it if
those of you whe have boys in
the fighting areas would call
her or see to it that the name
and address is filed with the lo­
cal Auxiliary.
Along those lines, we here at
the News office would be happy
to send the News to anyone
from around here who wants it
in the same area. Sometimes
news from home makes the be­
ing away from home a bit eas­
ier to take.

Nashville is again facing the
old situation. We seem to be
in the position of being with­
out a police force again.
This happens to us just about
every year.

We can keep a policeman
for just about a year and then
he goes off to greener pastures.
1 don't blame the officers a
bit. They have to look out for
themselves and tor their f a m ilies. If they can do better else­
where, then we can't hope to
keep them.
This all just seems to point up
the general problem of the small
town. We have a tough time
competing with the larger cities
and the suburban areas.
Because of the nature of
small towns, it is becoming in­
creasingly more difficult for us
to compete.
Our town has changed con­
siderably in the past few years.
While our population is just
about the same as it was 75
years ago, we have lost more
than half of the business places
that were here.
We have to educate our chil­
dren, and they must be as well
educated as the city and subur­
ban kids if they are going to
face the world with them, b u t
we are hard put to find enough
money to do the job.
We must offer our citizens
sewers, water, paved streets, po­
lice protection and all the other
services they would expect in
the larger centers. In • order to
do this though we have to find
the money.
Many of the services of mod­
em life cannot be bought here
in Nashville, or in many other
small towns. In order to buy an
automobile, or many other
items, one must go out of town.
Maybe police protection is a­
nother service that we will have
to go out to town to buy.
A number of people have sug­
gested that we ask Barry County
to cover Nashville with police
protection. Perhaps this is a way
out.
The prosecutor once likened l
Nashville to a small western
town of years ago, watching the
good guy and the bad guy fight
it out on the street.
Perhaps we will have to go
back to the old vigilante system
to get police protection. Maybe
people will just have to take
turns being the cop. Sort of a
volunteer police force. The on­
ly trouble with that system

Height 6'4”, Home town is
Houston, Texas.
Big Daddy is in his third year
with the Harlem Stan and has
proven himself a Big Daddy in
his third season . He is a Star
in his own rights. He is agUe
as a cat with quick reflexes.
This enables him to be one of
the top reboundea in the game.
Batiste averaged an amazing
21.9 average per game.
DELMAS "JR" SCORZA
Alike in statue just a shade
&lt; shorter, Jr. resembles Boid Buie
in every respect. He left his
home town of New Orleans to
go to California to complete
his schooling. He is amazing
for his phenom inal one arm
performance.
Under the strict guidance of
manager-owner Boid Buie, Jr.
is really coming along fast in
the second season in profession­
al ranks. A little reluctant on
rebounding makes up his short
comings with his precision
shooting and fancy ball handling.
It is a treat and a delight to
sec this spectacular athlete
perform.

SAMMIE "SWEET SAM" SMITH
Height 6'8" weight 210 lbs,
hometown - Richmond, Calif.

Not only big in statue but big
in basketball, he is called the
Bill Russell of the Harlem Staa
because he is always blocking
so many shoa and coming up
with the key basketball or re­
bound .in the important games.
He has already taken his physi­
cal for the armed forces but it is
hoping he can make the entire
season with the Stan before en­
tering the service.
Slim is so valuable to the team
that it has been hard to find a
replacement to fill his shoes.
British Columbus champions, he
set a record for the most shots

Michigan's Historymobile went
into winter hibernation late in
1965 but will be back on the
road this spring taking its color­
ful story to additional thousands
of sure residents.
Solan Weeks, director of the
Michigan Historical Commission
museum, said the first year of
the display unit was considered
a worthwhile venture.
The three-fold purpose of the
mobile unit is to stimulate in­
terest in Michigan's heritage,
publicize the museum resources
of the state, and acquaint the
general citizenry wfrhlocal
istory.

Developed through cooperation
of a number oi businesses with
14 Michigan museums, the Historymobile was staffed in each
community it visited by local
historical society members
The 19 exhibits included in the
1965 presentation portrayed the
state's development from the
time when mastodons roamed
the state, through the French
and British eras, the territorial
years and eventual development
into the present industrial status.

Association for Retarded Children has influenced the development of j
education for the mentally retarded in Michigan.
,

The Eaton County chapter of the Association for Retarded Children
was recently organized with Mr. Ralph Letson of Charlotte as its pres­
ident. This chapter is affiliated with the Greater Lansing Association b
for Retarded Children (GLARG), the Michigan Association (MARC)
with headquarters in the Michigan Tower Building in Lansing, and
“
with the National Association (MARC) with headquarters in New
York City. This organization had its beginning in the early 1950's
when some parents of retarded children banded together in order to
give their children companionship and an opportunity for learning
social and personal skills. In the last 15 years the association has
exerted a tremendous influence upon public opinion and legislation
concerning these children and has been influential in the establish—
ment of private and public educational facilities for them. Interest­
ed people are invited to contact Mr. Letson about joining this assoc­
iation and are invited to attend its monthly meetings.

the human eye better, say University of Wisconsin scientists. Insects
have large compound eyes with thousands of transparent "windows,"
or facets. Beneath each facet are light-sensitive receptor cells, cor­
responding to the retinal rods or cones of vertebrate eyes.

The Hamilton five came on
strong in the last half of a hardfought game to take the Lions,

At the end of the first quar ter Hamilton had an advantage
of only lour points at 21 to 17.
By half-time Maple Valley
had narrowed the Hamilton lead
to a grudgingly-given two point?.
When the horn sounded Hamil­

Considering the present trans­

school will be dismissed early
until the children will all be on

unable to contact some of the
drivers because of numerous in­
coming telephone calls which
resulted in further delay in send­
ing the children home.
The state law reads that all
children are to cross in front of
the school bus. Sometimes chil­
dren forget and cross behind
the bus. Our school bus drivers
remind the children of proper
crossing procedure in front of
the bus, nut it would help if
you would also remind your
children of the need to cross in
front of the bus. Also, children
should be waiting at the side of
the road for the bus. Children
should not attempt to board the
bus until the bus is completely
stopped, and all bus passengers
should remain a safe distance
from the bus while the bus is
stopping to pick up passengers.

this year's wheat and feed grain
programs.

as the greatest and funniest basketball team in the country today,

.
When the name Harlem Stan is mentioned, hoop fans get ready
for an evening of entertainment Fans will see a fancy exhibition Razzle Dazzle ball handling, intricate routines, both planned and
impromptu comedy and all sorts of shenanigans.
The Harlem Stan are unique in the fact that they never try to
tun up a huge score against opponents. It is their policy to keep the
game close, devoting much time to comedy stuff.
They enjoy playing basketball every day even it they have to
travel hundreds of miles to do so. They began their season in Alas­
ka the last week in September and will hit between 36 or 40 states
and the following other countries: Mexico, Canada. Australia,
Japan and some parts of Europe. The round honehide is the magic
carpet that has. taken these basketball jesters all over the world.
Owner Boid Buie calls the men "magicians" referring to their
zany antics on the basketball court: razzle dazzle ball handling,
intricate pass patterns, trick shooting, marathon dribbling and im­
promptu comedy antics.
The entertainment offered by these stars will provide a delightful
evening and the Chamber is pleased to be able to sponsor such a
program for the community.

in it and pretend to drive. Boy,
that was an exciting Sunday
afternoon well spent!
An old lady down the street
from us had a Detroit Electric
which she steered with a tiller.
The driver sat in the back seat
and operated the machine. The
passengers sat in jump seats in
front of the driver. That old
electric could jump away from
the curb in a get-away tnat was
admired by some of the young
whippersnappers who drove gas­
oline cars. It was fast on the
start, but it was not much for
endurance or road speed.
They say they are coming out
with a modem version of the
Cord also. This is another one
that looks good to me.
Perhaps they will come out
with a modem version of the
Model-A.

Monday night at Lions Club
was the first I had seen Morrie
Brown since the Rose Bowl game.
Dr. Brown and I have a running
battle about the University or
Michigan and the MSU football
teams. I fear I was rather un­
merciful to him after the U of
M-MSU game, and when it was
decided that Sute would go to
the coast to uke on UCLA, I
really threw my weight around.
Monday night when we met,
Morrie said nothing at all about
the game I When I could sund
his silence no longer, I asked
him how it was that he was not
hanging the bird on me.
"I thought you suffered enough
just watching the game,” he
said.

Insurance Chief Named
to Head March of Dimes

Appeal issued for
hospital personnel
A recruitment campaign was
inaugurated today in Southwest­
ern Michigan by the Depart­
ment of Mental Health and
area news media.
The goal is to obtain profes­
sional and nonprofessional per­
sonnel to fill vacant positions at
Kalamazoo, Coldwater, and
Fort Custer state hospitals for
the mentally ill and mentally
retarded.
Openings are now available
for male institution workers,
male attendant nurses, and both
male and female registered nur­
ses.

"Rapidly developing new and
more effective services for pa­
tients at our state institutions
have increased the demand for
personnel at all levels of em­
ployment, " said Robert A. Kimmich, M. D., director of the
Mental Health Department.
"The need for additional staff
has been recognized by the Gov­
ernor and the legislators through
the appropriation of .additional
funds," said Dr. Kimmich.'
"With the cooperation and as­
sistance of Michigan's news
media we hope to fill the allot­
ted vacancies and provide our
patients with the personal ser­
vices they require."
There are no specific edu­
cation or experience require­
ments for institution workers
and attendant nurses. Appli­
cants must be at least 18 years
of age and able to pass basic
Civil Service examinations.
Salaries range from $3, 780 to
$4, 301 for institution workers
and from $4, 364 to $5,095 for
attendant nurses.
Registered nurses are in de­
mand at all three institutions
at salaries ranging from $5,575
to $7, 8b0i
Under the Michigan Civil •
Service employment program
several fringe benefits are
shared by all state employees,
including: liberal vacation and
sick leave allowances, paid
holidays, 40-hour week, re­
tirement plan, and group insur­
ance. Numerous other induce­
ments for long-term employ­
ment Include longevity nonuses
and additional vacation time.
In charge of the recruitment
drive is Ivan Estes, Department
of Mental Health personnel di­
rector, and hospital personnel
officers at Kalamazoo, Cold­
water, and Fort Custer.
"Salaries and attractive fringe
benefits are not the only com­
pensations for our nearly 12,000
employees," Mid Mr. Estes, "A
major consideration is the utisRoad Service &gt;

faction of knowing their services
are contributing to the care and
rehabilitation of less fortunate
fellow citizens. "
He particularly appealed to
registered nurses who are now
ready to renew their profession­
al careers after raising families.
Further information and ap­
plication forms may be obtained
by contacting the personnel of­
fice at any one of the hospitals
either in person or by phone:

Supt. Guenther talks on
Special Education program
The Eaton County Association of Retarded Children will meet at
the Maplewood Elementary school in Vermontville on Thursday,
January 20 at 7:00 pm for a potluck supper.
Supt. Richard Guenther of Hastings, will speak about the wayzthe
Association for RetMded Children has influenced the development of
education for the mentally retarded in Michigan.

Parents and relatives of children in special education programs in
Eaton County as well as special education teachers and other inter­
ested people are cordially invited to attend.

When plans were drawn up some time back for remodeling the
Maplewood elementary building in Vermontville, as pan of a re­
vamping programs for several buildings in the Maple Valley district,
a two-room plan for special education was included. Finances for
this portion as well as equipment and furniture was provided through
the Eaton County Special Education funds for which a special onemill tax was spread.

One of the rooms was put into operation in December 1964, and
the second was opened last September 2. There are 29 students en­
rolled, and the teachers in charge Me Mrs. Reva Schantz and Miss
Mary Ebersole. Later this month a speech correctionist, Mn. Lynn
Davidson, will be added. Mn. Davidson holds a bachelor's degree
in speech therapy and special education from Central Michigan Univenity and a master's degree from Purdue Univenity.
The Eaton County chapter of the Association for Retarded Children
was recently organized with Mr. Ralph Letson of Charlotte as its pres­
ident. This chapter is affiliated with the Greater Lansing Association
for RetMdedChildren (GLARG), the Michigan Association (MARC)
with headquarters in the Michigan Tower Building in Lansing, and
with the National Association (MARC) with beadquarters in New
York City. This organization had its beginning in the eMly 1950's
when some parents of retarded children banded together in order to
give their children companionship and an opportunity for learning
social and personal skills. In the last 15 yean the association has
exerted a tremendous influence upon public opinion and legislation
concerning these children and has been influential . ' e establish- meat of private and public educational facilities for them. Interest­
ed people are invited to contact Mr. Letson about joining this assoc­
iation and are invited to attend its monthly meetings.

�Michigan. Thursday. January 27. 1966

backstreet barometer
According to all the publicity that comes
i things, we are going into the
le. This is what the Chinese tell
who makes up what animal the
year will be, but you can bet that the horse peo­
ple are happy about the thing.
So far as I see it, most people fall into animal
categories. There are .cat people, (those who
like and raise cats), dog people, horse people,
monkey people, parakeet people, etc.
Just by the way of an aside, I know a lady who
is a cat person. She raises cats and takes them to
cat shows. She also sells kittens, a by-product of
her cat show activitv. I guess. She told me that
she gets seventy-five bucks per each for kittens.
” 1 told this lady that she should be on the road
selling things. Anyone who can sell kittens for
seventv-five bucks per each should be on comIhission selling something like bridges or skyr
scrapers, where she could make a buck.
I told this lady that most of my acquaintances
have trouble giving kittens away. I should in­
troduce this lady to Marion Miller. Mrs. Miller
always has kittens to give away. With her sup­
ply and the other lady's sales ability, the both
of them could be independently wealthy within
a few months.
This lady is most unusual. Before she takes
one of her cats to a show she gives him a shower
bath. This alone should set her apart from the
run-of-the-mill people. If she never sold a kit­
ten for three quarters of a C note, just giving a
cat a shower bath should put her in the books.
I can just imagine what a bloody mess I would
come out were I ever to try to give our big cat
Charlie a shower bath. I would never be the same
again, the bathroom would never be the same
again, and I'm sure Charlie would take some
time to recover. He doesn't quite trust me now.
Each time I walk in the door, he turns his face
to the wall and pretendsThat neither of us is real­
ly there. It seems that often when I come home,
it is with the idea of putting Charlie out and he
knows it
I am not exactly sure how she accomplishes
this shower bath thing, but I would bet a onehundred dollar kitten that she comes out of it just
as wet as the cat does.
Just before the show she then puts perfume on
the cat. Ho boy! what a sweet-smelling cat! He
wins a lot of ribbons, though.
Anyway, to get back to my original thought,
this is the year of the horse, so I went out and
interviewed a horse to see what he had to say
about it.
"How do you do, horse!" I said, "My name is
John and................... "
"It's right down the hall - turn right and it is
just three doors from the corner. You can't miss
it....."
"No, No," I said, "I'm not asking for direc­
tions. I'm just introducing myself. Now, as you
know, this is the year of the norse and I lust

wanted your comments on this.
"No, I didn't know. How do you arrive at this
year of the horse jazz?"
“it's the Chinese," I said, "Each year they
give to some animal and this, just happens to be
your turn. "

"Dodge? Where do you get Dodge as a horse
name?" .
" I used to have a friend who was a kicker.
Each time someone went into his stall, the
owner would say, 'Watch that kicker - dodge!'
I just figured his name was Dodge."
"Oh, yes, if you would just allow us horses
to take over the world for a year. I’m sure we
could put you right back on your feet. "
"Oh, come now," I said, "horses are not
smart enough to run the world. It takes the only
thinking animal, man, to run the world. Let’s
face it! The world is in pretty bad shape with
men running it and they are a lot smarter than
horses. Inhere would the world be if you dumb
brutes were in charge?"
"About that being smarter than we are, I
don’t know," said the horse. "Did you ever see
a horse place a two-dollar bet on a man?"
He had me there, and I slunk out of the in­
terview before I went further in reverse.

Maple Grove

An unfortunate incident oc­
curred at the high school bas­
ketball game Friday night. I
wish to explain some of the cir­
cumstances that contributed to
the problem and hope this will
cleat up some muunderstandmgs.
One of the officials hired for
the Varsity game did not show
up nor did he notify us that he
was not coming. One of the two'
who did come was a young of­
ficial hired to work tne J; V.
game only. He agreed to stay
and do the best he could in the
varsity game. The third official
was an experienced, approved
official with ratings qualifying
him as an approved official. As
a result of their performance,
none of the three officials v^ill
be hired again.
The game was loosely played
with both teams displaying tem­
pers. Before the Delton team
left, their coach insisted that
his players come to the Maple
Valley players and shake hands
to show good sportsmanship.
One boy gave vent to his
temper and swung instead af
shaking hands.
The boy who was hit is all
right. He was back in school
Monday and practiced with the
team.
The officials of both schools
are very disturbed for what hap­
pened and are doing everything
possible to bring about a good
relationship between the two
schools.

SAME OLD WAYS

Observing the legislative pro­
cess closely year after year of­
ten makes one wonder whether
this function of civilization has
fallen behind other segments.
In this, area, the adage of
"nothing new under the sun"
seems to hold fairly true despite
constant change in other ele­
ments of society. Colored tele­
vision and computer advances in
the electronics field, new fabrics
in merchandising, faster methods
of cooking, etc.; these tell in
vivid pictures of the advances
being made.
In the state legislature, how­
ever, much the same processes
are being used today as were in
vogue 10 or more yean ago. The
subject matter under discussion
points up the lag also.

Hardly a year has gone by in
recent memory that someone
hasn't blamed the Conservation
Department for allowing hunters
to kill off too many deer, either
bucks or does.
We're told taxes won't be on
the agenda this year, but that
won't keep fiscal reform out of
'off-the-floor discussion, it can
be assured. Then there is the
all-too-familiar subject of com­
pensation of legislators. Even on
the first day of the current session
there were bills introduced to
provide possible action in this
area.
There's also the decade-old
subject of the Governor's man­
sion. Lawmakers in 1964 thought
they could deal quickly with this
one because the new Constitution
issued a mandate for providing a
home for the chief executive.
.
The question is far from solved
and there are many, many other
perennials.

The repititious nature of legisla­
tive affairs will be increased this
year, although there was enough
previously, t&gt;y another part of
the 1963 Constitution. It pro­
vides that bills not disposed of in
the first year of the legislative
biennium shall carry over into
the second.
Some 1, 500 bills were left from
the 1965 session at various stages
of consideration. With about this
number expected to be introduced
again, this carry-over factor does
lend something new "under the
sun" in legislative activity: a new
challenge to the memory of those
who try to keep close track of
what is being done.

Another time-honored philoso­
phy among politicians, which
will make the mayor's attempt
most interesting. Is that "you
wait your turn."
After all, McNamara has ser­
ved well (and got the votes need­
ed) and should ne allowed to con­
tinue if he cares to run again.
And former Gov. G. Mennen
Williams made it very clear be­
fore he finished his six long, hard
terms as chief executive that he
had his eye on the Senate seat.

Cavanagh boasts he could de­
feat Williams in a primary. His
contention seems based largely
on the notion that many-voters
have come of age since the as­
sistant secretary of state for

THE "RIGHT" TIME

Timing is all-important in
politics. Every politician and
adviser knows this. But judgments
are required to determine whether
the timing is right, and this is
where politicians and advisers
sometimes disagree or go wrong.
Detroit's young mayor appar­
ently has decided that his time
is now. He seems to care little
about being governor, the post
viewed as his next logical step
when he was first elected.
Mayor Jerome Cavanagh also
apparently is convinced that to
get to the U. S. Senate he must
run this year. Someone has told
him it would be easier to get
Senior Sea Patrick McNamara's
seat this year than run against
Philip Hart four years from now.
Waiting another six years, if
McNamara ran this year and ser­
ved the full terms, would put the
mayor in the position of a nobody
or an also-ran if he was still in
his present post.
So he has decided the time is
now, or never.

get to the U. S. Senate he must
run this year. Someone has told
him it would be easier to get
,
Senior Sen. Patrick^vlcNamara’s
seat this year than run against
Philip Hart four years from now.
Waiting another six years, if
McNamara ran this year and ser­
ved the full terms, would put the
mayor in the position of a nobody
or an also-ran if he was still in
his present post.
So he has decided the time is
now, or never.

ficers and committees followed. Mrs. Forrest

By CHERYL PENFOLD

Valley, has been named one of
the winners of the fall National
High School Poetry Press con­
test. Bob's poem "Anthology of
Spring" will be published in the
Annual Anthology of HighSchooL

In a recent Valley Visions I
was found an interesting article
written by Anita Benedict about
her cousin, and Maple Valley's
own foreign exchange- student,
Cherry Benedict who is attend­
ing school in Germany.
,
A few of her duties while liv­
ing on a farm are: feeding the
calves, pigs, and their two dogs,
helping with meals and helping
with the harvesting.
Cherry starts her school day
about 6 am. At 7:00 she leaves
home an her bike to Budesheim.
From Budesheim she takes a
train to Frankfurt, where she at­
tends school from 8;00 to 1:00
for six days a week. She takes
16 subjects.
German schools start August
15 and ends the middle of July.
Summer vacation is only four
weeks long. Cherry says that the
schools do not have ball games,
dances or parties -- can you
imagine that!_________________

formational program. There is
no charge. Requests should be

ing prepared. Contracting to ac­
complish the Job of moving the

Acquisition of the buildings
came about when the U. S. Gov­

1962 to store surplus grains in
aU of the grain raising countries

The buildings were requested by

be an estimated $2,100X0 coat
per building to move them and
make them ready for use. Earl

rectors for the fair, along with
Arthur Steeby and the BCCS

One of the most important "
holidays of the entire year is
just around the corner.
1 refer not to Valentine’s Day,
which holds some importance to
some, but to Ground-Hog Day!
In observance of this day. I
got out and interviewed the old
ground-hog himself.
I walked right up to his den
and knocked on the door. After
a long delay, during which time
I kicked the snow off his front
steps, the old Ground-hog him­
self came to the door. He was
sleepy-eyed and was dressed in
a striped bathrobe, slippers and
a long tailed night-cap.
"What is the idea of waking
a fellow up in the middle of
the winter, " he wanted to know.
"It is just that Ground-Hog
Day is almost upon us," I said,
"and I would just like to ask
a few questions. Perhaps 1 could
even get an advance prediction
out of you."
"Well, if you are not selling
anything, I guess it is all right
if you come in out of the cold.”
He invited me into his neat
living room where he sat me
down in a leather chair.
"Ma." he yelled, "get up and
put on a pot of coffee. It's quar­
ter to Ground-Hog Day and we
just have time for breakfast be­
fore the festivities begin.”,
"Now," I said, "can you tell
me how you go about predicting
the coming of spring? Jt is true
that if you see your shadow,' you
crawl back into bed and sleep
for six more weeks?"
1
"Is that the rule?" said the
ground-hog. "If I see my shadow
I get to sleep for six more weeks?"
"That's the way Understand
It," I said. "If you don't see your

"Do the way I do," he said,

The boys over at P 1 y co ma
tell me that they have made ar­
rangements with Jim Rizor to buy
his land that is just across the
tracks from their present plant.
They hope to build another
plant there.
They also tell me that their
payroll is up considerable and so
are their sales. They are doing
about a million dollars a year
in business. This represents a lot
of increased business here in
Nashville.

The Boughtons were in Lan­

an award - First Place for the

Becauxe he is in poor physical condition, this man may be
asking for a heart attack. The Michigan Heart Association, a
Michigan United Fund agency, says that violent exertion by
persons not used to it may lead to a heart attack. To get in
good condition, says the Heart Association, exercise reasonably
and regularly — then go skiing.

NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, FEBURARY 3. I960

News Photo
The Nashville volunteer fire
department was called out at
about one o'clock on Monday
afternoon to fight a fire at the
Glen Garlinger home on Kel­
logg street.
The fire was discovered by
Mrs. Garlinger who was in the
home at the time with her oneyear old son Gary and a baby
sitter, Martha Williams.
Mrs. Garlinger was about
to leave for work at the Has­
tings Manufacturing Company
at the time she discovered the
fire. All the occupants escaped
without injury.
,
Fire Chief Forrest Babcock
theorizes that the fire started in
the basement, probably the re­
sult of an overbeated furnace.
Heavy smoke and bitter cold
hampered the efforts of the de­
partment. The house was so
filled with smoke that the fire­
men could go into the structure
for only brief periods of time.
- Despite the efforts of the vol­
unteers, the house burned to the
ground.

Assistance came from both
the Vermontville and the Wood­
land departments. Both of these
organizations sent their tank .
trucks to augment the Nash­
ville supply of water.
The Garlinger house was an
old landmark in Nashville. It
was the former farm home of
the Bert Heckathorn family.
The Garlingers are staying
with his parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Ceylon Garlinger while they
look for another place to live.
Damage from the fire was
estimated at about $14,000.

Jackpot winner
The Nashville Jackpot draw­
ing had a winner Friday night.
The name of Joe Belson was
called and he collected the
script worth $100. Script was
picked up at Babcock Gulf.
The amount for next week
will be $50.
♦

The village of Nashville has
a new Police Chief. He is Robert
Parker of St. Johns.
Chief Parker served in World
War 2 from 1941 to 1946 as a
member of the military police.

Editoria I

A thing of the past ?
The following letter was received in the News office after
Maple Syrup Association meeting of Monday night

Editor
Nashville News
Nashville, Michigan
Dear Sir:
If I may. I would like to use
your Newspaper to submit my
resignation as President of the
Nashville Maple Syrup Associ ation. This means is necessary
due to the fact, there were -not
enough people present at the An­
nual Meeting. In fact, there
were only two people besides my­
self. Mrs. Tonkin, Vice-Presi­
dent of the Association, and Fran­
cis Squires, Scoutmaster.
As far as I am concerned this
brings to an end the tradition of
making maple syrup in Nashville.
I understand this will be the first
time since 1917 .
We continually hear about the
bad things which various organi­
zations do, and very seldom are
good things brought to our atten­
tion. No doubt the MapleSyrup
Association has done things
which didn't agree with each in­
dividual's feelings. Possibly they
have done things which were not
always good for the Community.
I don't know the complete his tory of the association, but one
•thing I know for certain: last

the

year there were eight organi zations in town, which benefited
to the tune of about $1200. This
is $1200 which the people
of
Nashville didn't have to contrib­
ute out of their pockets.
Surely, people realize this is
not a three-person operation, es­
pecially when these people also
have to work and provide for
their family.
To anyone who might be in terested, I worked for my em­
ployer a total of 2652 hours last
year. I was able to donate some
time to the Maple Syrup Asso elation, the Boy Scouts, and
my church. It may be surpris­
ing but I spent a considerable
amount of time with my family
also. Oh yes, I played a few
games of golf also.
This letter would not be com­
plete if I failed to mention the
many hours of time spent by a
handful of people in the past ,
for their unselfish work, in mak­
ing the Maple Syrup Association
a success.
Apparently the good horse has
been ridden to death.
Yours truly,
Allen D. Brace

In all fairness to all people concerned, this decision has been in
the making for a number of years now. In the past several seasons
it has been increasingly difficult to interest people in the Associ­
ation. Each year, it seems, fewer people showed up for the annual
meeting. Each year, fewer people showed an interest in serving as
directors of the organization. Each year it became more difficult
to find volunteer workers tb carry oh the operation of the sugar
shanty.
The general consensus seems to be that "nobody cares any more."
Apparently this is the case. There must be a reason though, why
nobody cares. The answer might lie in the changing times and the
changing atmosphere of our vHlage.
The Maple Syrup Association was conceived and brought forth in
another time when the needs of the community were different, when
the attitudes and the outlook of the people of the village were dif­
ferent. As fondly as many of us look back to those days, few of us
would want to go back to them. The world has changed. Nashville
has changed.
When the Association started Nashville was a small village, liv­
ing pretty much by itself. The people in the village were associ ated with close knit family groups, which in turn, associated them­
selves with social groups.
These families were strong. The organizations to which the fam­
ilies and the members of the families belonged were strong. Church
groups worked hard In concert to put ou dinners and social affairs
is well as taking care of the spiritual needs of the members. The
edges in the village were strong. There were numerous athletic
.earns made up of the people of the village.
There was a need in those days, for the togetherness that the peo­
ple of the village so enjoyed. We were living in the end of the era
of the frontier. This frontier era was characterized by people band­
ing together for their very existence.
The men joined together to protect each other and their families
from the hostilities of the environment. They joined together to
help thresh, build roads, build barns for each other, to enjoy them­
selves and to worship.
When the Association was formed we were still a more-or-less
isolated village.
~
Since that time the roads have been paved and improved. It is
now possible to go from here to Detroit in about two hours. Chica­
go is just four hours away. Things have changed vastly. In the last
ten yean we have seen more changes, social, economic, techni­
cal, than any other generation has seen in hundreds of yean.
Mr. Brace mentions in his letter the amounts of money that were
distributed last year. Perhaps we no longer need that money. Per­
haps the people of our affluent society no longer want to work that
hard for that amount of money.
*

Suffice it to say, things have changed. The finger of blame can­
not be pointed at any one individual or group. The Syrup Associ­
ation seems not to have failed, rather it appears to have died a
natural death, or is in the process of dying a natural death.

Perhaps it is a part of the past that is gone and cannot be re called.

Possibilities discussed for
developing Museum
Mr. Solan Weeks, Director of Museums for the Michigan Histori­
cal Commission, was the speaker at the regular monthly meeting
of the Barry County Board of Supervisors, Monday, Feb. 7 at 10:00
o’clock in the morning, in The County Building in Hastings. Sev­
eral other interested people attended this meeting, as well as the
Supervisors. A total of 45 in all attended.
The topic of Mr. Weeks’ discussion was the tremendous potential
of the Charlton Park Museum and Park area. There are 170 mu­
seums in Michigan, but few are park and museum combined. Charl­
ton Park Museum is probably the most underdeveloped in the state,
but with the greatest potential.
Mr. Weeks suggested having a master plan worked out, consider­
ing both park and museum. The Michigan Conservation Depart­
ment could help in this. This could necessitate a park managerand
a museum director. Under the supervision of this director volun­
teers could do much of the work in the museum.
4
Slides were shown pointing up what has been accomplished in
other museums, some generously endowed, others by volunteer
workers, some privately owned and others just collections. Some
communities have even put the cart before the horse, so to speak,
and have built new builaings first and are now waiting for collec­
tions and materials to appear.
Tourism can be like a new industry, bringing better economy to
a community. Charlton Park and Museum has this potential for the
surrounding communities in Barry County.

Highway funds given
The Department of State Highways has started distributing fourth
quarter Motor Vehicle Highway Fund collections to Michigan coun­
ties and incorporated cities and villages.
Howard E. Hill, State Highway Director, said net receipts of the
Highway Fund during October, November and December of 1965,
•amounted to $62. 124, 339. an increase of $3, 594, 979 compared to
the same period of 1964.
Barry County’s share totaled $156, 817 while Nashville received
$4, 283 and Hastings received $16, 743.
All state gasoline and diesel fuel taxes and license plate fees go
to the Motor Vehicle Highway Fund.
After deduction of collection costs and the Waterway's Commis­
sion’s share, the money is distributed under provisions of state law
which provides that 47 percent goes to the Department of State
Highways for use on state roads, 35 percent to the state’s 83 coun­
ties for use on county roads, and 18 percent to 520 incorporated
cities and villages for their roads and streets.

Council sets budget
for coming year
By

The village council met Thurs­
day evening in the Nashville vil­
lage halt Much of the time was
spent on the budget for next year,
which will be scrutinized by the
finance committee.
Presently the incidental fund
calls for $8, 029. 00 which
in­
cludes telephone, hydrants, law­
yer retainer fees, recreation pro­
gram, salaries for the trustees,
clerk, treasurer, assessor, elec­
tion board, board of review,
Michigan Municipal league dues,
insurance. Justice of the peace,
printing and miscellaneous items.
The police department budget
was estimated to be $10, 730.00.
This will take care of salaries,
health insurance, bonds, car in­
surance, gasoline, oil, grease
and other car expenses, car pay­
ments, clothing and miscellan­
eous items.
The street department budget
was estimated to be $24, 780.
Included in this department are
salaries and wages, gasoline and
oil, M-66 maintenance, tile, •
chloride, gravel, equipment re­
pair, insurance, paint and
signs, new equipment, cement,

major jobs for 1966, patching
material, and miscellaneous
items.
The water department budget
was set at $12, 340. This will
cover such items as salaries, Con­
sumers Power, supplies, refunds,
printing, parts, meters and parts,
clay pipe, pumps, equipment,
insurance and miscellaneous.
The sewer fund budget was set
at $14, 656. This includes bonds
and interest, salaries, supplies,
printing, Consumers Power, and
other items necessary to operate
this department.
Other budgets were set as fol­
lows: Library, $400. 00; parks,
$500. 00; lights and fuel, $5,000;
fire board, $1, 500. 00 and sani ration department, $9, 300. 00.
Since the present water rates,
and sewer costs went into effect
some time ago there have been
relatively few complaints. How­
ever. there are a few. As one
knows, when improvements are
made they must be paid for. This
is true whether we build
new
schools, roads, or make any civ­
ic improvements. Your present
water and sewer rates are as rea­
sonable as we can make them at
the present time. Currently your
water rates are as follows; 500

GLADYS MILLER

per thousand gallons up to the
first 8, 000 gallons; from 8 to
24, 000 gallons, the rate is
37 1/20; from 24 to 80, 000 the
rate is 300 and over 80. 000 the
rate is 18e. Your sewer rate is
identical to the amount of water
you use. Thus if you use, say.
$40 worth of water, the sewer
rate is another $40. Perhaps
sometime in the future the sewer
rate can be adjusted, but pres­
ently this is the ruling as it was
set some years ago.
ICO.
Many persons I
1 declined to runit for village
w ,president a third year. The answer
is simply that it takes up so much
time away from my news
re­
porting that I can no longer con­
tinue. 1 have thoroughly enjoyed
serving as your village president,
due largely to the efficient corps
of persons with whom I had the
privilege of working. But writing
for two communities, Vermont­
ville and Nashville, for four
dailies, the United Press, The
Hastings Banner anti often for the
Nashville News, demands most
of my time, and one who serves
as village president should be
able to contribute more time
than 1 am able to find in any 24
hours.

Allen Decker wins FFA Contest

The Maple Valley Varsity Club is sponsoring an evening of basket­
ball for February 23, that should of interest to everyone in the area.
The Varsity Club members have lined up the Maple Valley fac­
ulty team against the Hastings High faculty team. According to all
reports, this is somewhat of a grudge match. A similar game was
played last year in Hastings.
In addition to the faculty game there will be a game between
the Maplewood and the Fuller Street school s sixth grade teams.
Mrs. Wion's GAA members will also play a game after the sixth
graders.
High point of the evening though, should be the faculty game.

Stoel, Ralph "Tank” Kirk, "Wild Bill" Gibbs, Ix’roy "Carbon"Wion,
Mel "Hammerhead" Klvela, Jim "Senator" Wynes, Leon "Speech­
less" Housler, Gene "Goose" Henderson. Jim ’^Lover-Boy" French,
Terry "Top Cat" Cheesbro. Wilmer "Slenderule" Davis, Bill
"Stretch" Hecker.
Tickets for the entire evening of entertainment cost only 500.
The Varsity club intends to use the money to help purchase a
motion picture camera and a projector for the athletic depart­
ment.
•
The sixth grade game will start at 7 pm, and the faculty game
will be at 8 pm.

Every year about this time.
Frank Kellogg sends me a copy of
the Tampa Tribune. This is the
special souvenir iedition to plug
the Florida State Fair and the invasion of Tampa by the pirate
Jose Gaspar. Each year Gaspar
and his men invade. Tampa for a
bit of fun. and each year 1 hear
about it from Frank.
From the pictures in the paper,
it is nice and warm down there
now.

Here it is Feb. 14. and my mail
docs not include one Valentine.
Back in the good old days, 1
could depend upon, at least one,
nasty Valentine designed to make
me red in the face and to put me
in a bad mood for the rest of the
day.
Perhaps people are getting kind­
er as the years roll by. They used
to sell those lithographed so
called comic Valentines on cheap
paper. They always had one for
the old-ma id schoolteacher, one
for the grouchy boss, and just a­
bout anyone else you could think
of. They were ail guaranteed tu
be in poor taste and ulcer pro ducing. Them was the good old
days?

A number of people have men­
tioned the item in last week's
paper which pointed out the lack
of workers for the sugar shanty
this year. Everyone seems to oe
of the opinion that the sap should
be gathered and boiled.
Few
seem to know just how to go a­
bout it.
There is a possibility that the
VFW will take over and operate
the syrup making establishment
here. 1 hope they do.
Much of the comment 1 have
heard comes from out-of-town.
People seem to like to come
here to get syrup and they re­
member the town, thougn many
of them don't remember
the
name.
Last week I met a lady
in
Kalamazoo and we went through
that routine of "Nashville. I've
never heard of it. Where is the
town located?"
1 went through the explana­
tion of how to get to Nashville
and wound up by telling
the
lady that we are near Vermont­
ville.
'
"Oh. 1 know Vermontville, "
she said, ”We go there to get
syrup every spring. " She then
described Nashville and the su­
gar shanty.
It turned out that she has been
coming to Nashville and thought
all the time she was in Vermont­
ville.

Nashville has another cham­
pion. I understand that Dan Car­
rigan has won the Golden Gloves
State Championship in his
weight class. This is quite an
accomplishment. He was up a­
gainst some tough competition.
His brother Dave also went as
far in the Golden Gloves com­
petition as he could go In his
class.
Both boys are trained by their
father who is a former Golden
Glover himself.

JUST LIKE HOME
Never enough money to do the
things desired ot necessary; that
is the problem of state govern­
ment as well as most families-in
Michigan.
Despite a proposal to increase
Michigan's spending by $125
million, many complaints have
already been heard that some
members of the state family will
still be forced to live beneath
their needs.
Loudest complaints to date
have come from the institutions
of higher education.

One of the unhappy college
spokesmen is University of Mich
lean President Harlan Hatcher.
He termed the Governor's budappointing" because they ' tall
far short of meeting the full need,'
Higher education is not alone
in its demand for greater funds
to complete plans for new or ex­
panded programs, build new phy­
sical facilities, and hire addi tional staff.

Whether it be higher educa­
tion, agriculture, civil rights,
mental health, or whatever, a
vicious circle develops similar
to one common in a private fam
ily situation.
Extra income encourages the
family to move into a bigger,
perhaps newer home. This re­
quires some new furniture and
perhaps allows the family mem­
bers to broaden their activities.
There may be room, for exam pie, for a ping pong table. This
may call for special lighting fix­
tures, and so the story goes.
The expenditures for equip­
ment all too often get even lar­
ger than the extra income which
permitted the initial change in
the family's life.
Where does it end? Only com­
mon sense can keep living costs
within the budget, whether it be
in a five-member family or a­
mong the several units of state
government.

TEACHER’S LOOKS
Some crises never seem to be
resolved. The critical problems
of local school districts fall in this
category, and particularly the
teacher shortage.
As far as memory goes back, it
seems school teachers have always
been in demand. This year appar­
ently will be no exception.
Michigan State University offic­
ials report that despite a new high
in enrollments.of elementary and
secondary education students, the
supply is still falling short of the
demand for teachers at these lev -

Statistics show Michigan State,
with 1. 600 potential teachers grad­
uated last year, leading the nation
in training educators.
Still, Donald F. Harden, MSU
placement officer, says the grad­
uate from East Lansing can essen­
tially handpick the area in which
to work. Tnis is especially true
for elementary school teachers,
since greater numbers of students
select the secondary level.

_Dr. Leland W. Dean, director
of MSU's School of Teacher Edu

The children shown this week are as follows: Timothy Ray Kienutske, son of Mr. and Mrs. Albert W. Kienutske, Jr, Swift Rd.
Nashville; Carol Appelman, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Michael
Appelman, 308 Cleveland, Nashvillejimmie Williams, son of Mr.
and Mrs. James Williams, Route 2, Nashville; Cindy Gallanger,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Marvin Redmond, Route 2, Nashville;
Kenneth Hawblitz, son of Mr. and Mrs. Blair Hawblitz, Route 2,
Nashville; and Linda Tobias, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Tobias
Route 1, Nashville.

cation, notes that the shortage
of elementary school teachers
has been present since WorldWar
II. Educators are hesitant to pre­
dict when, or even if, the sup­
ply will catch up with the de­
mand.

NEW LOOK
Reorganization of state govern-

ment is formally in effect now.
A more accurate term for the
process might be reshuffling.
For, while there are now few­
er units with the name "depart­
ment, " there are essentially the
same number of agencies. In
most cases just the title has been
changed.
What is has meant in the de­
partments reshuffled the longest
has been a change in many of the
procedures. Where a council was
once independent, its staff must
now go through several channels
to do its work because it is now
part of a larger unit, the depart­
ment.

Other changes are resulting by
executive edict. The Governor
has distributed a memo requiring
different handling of publicity and
one regarding the tilling ot highlevel personnel vacancies.
It seems the executive office
wants to be notified of vacancies,
presumably including some which
would be covered and filled
through the civil service process.
Regarding publicity, any press
releases are to be channeled
through the upper levels of the
departmental structure rather
than released by a person who
might previously have headed
the public relations work in a
given council or sub-depart­
ment unit.

Many state employes,
and
others outside, are still watch­
ing to see the full effect of the
reorganization changes and the
governor's edicts.
All are hoping the changes
might result in less red tape for
the public in dealing with state
ernment procedures are getting
even more complicated and
cumbersome than ever before.

has been present since WorldWar
II, Educators arc hesitant to pre­
dict when, or even if, the sup­
ply will catch up with the de­
mand.

NEW LOOK
Reorganization of state govern­

ment is formally in effect now.
A more accurate term for the
process might be reshuffling.
For, while there are now few­
er units with the name,"depart­
ment, " there are essentially the
same number of agencies.
In
most cases just the title has been
changed.
What is has meant ut the de­
partments reshuffled the longest
has been a change in many of the
procedures. Where a council was
once independent, its staff must
now go through several channels
to do its work because it is now
part of a larger unit, the depart­
ment.

Other changes are resulting by
executive ddict. The Governor
has distributed a memo requiring
different handling of publicity and
one regarding the tilling ot highlevel personnel vacancies.
It seems the executive office
wants to be notified of vacancies,
presumably including some which
would be covered and filled
through the civil service process.
Regarding publicity, any press
releases are to be channeled
■
through the upper levels of the
departmental structure rather
than released by a person who
might previously have headed
the public relations work in a
given council or sub-depart­
ment unit.

Many state employes,
and.
others outside, are still watch­
ing to see the full effect of the
reorganization changes and the
governor’s edicts.
All are hoping the changes
might result in less red tape for
the public in dealing with state
government. The overriding
lear, however, is that the gov­
ernment procedures are getting
even more complicated and
cumbersome than ever before.

LEMON CHERRY CHEESECAKE

_f he brightest of all February flavor treats is the
cherry. This tart little red fruit is a favorite with
youngsters and oldsters alike who eat with their eyes
as well as their tummies. And cherries are the answer
for the cook who needs color accent for dull winter
meals.
Today’s supermarkets yield cherries in many forms
for year ’round use. Canned and frozen pitted un­
sweetened cherries are but two of the grocer’s delights
—to say nothing of the numerous prepared mixes.
In this issue of FARM AND HOME you’ll find
cherry recipes for muffins, cheesecake, salad, desserts
and, of course, cherry pie. And for something extra
special try Inga’s German Cherry Torte.

Heal estate taxes take a mighty big bite out of
farm income — but a few weeds in your crops can
cost you a lot more than the assessor charges.
Average farm taxes are about $4.00 per acre in
Illinois, while Iowa taxes average a little over $3.00
per acre. Taxes on the best farm land, of course, may
be more than double the state average. Even so, your
tax bill can be small potatoes compared to what weeds
take out of your pocket every year.
A recent study showed that one pigweed releases
200,000 seeds when it matures, and almost all of these
weed seeds are ready to grow and rob you the next
year if not controlled. In view of this, it doesn’rtmake
much sense to use the best seed, best fertilize., best
equipment, and best practices, then let weeds rob
the crop s potential. Such a procedure is about as
practical as taking long steps to save your shoes!
It doesn’t take many weeds to cut yields $10 per
acre. Weeds collect their taxes by robbing crops of
nutrients, moisture and light.-

CONTROL

If you follow good soybean manage­
ment practices, Amiben weed control
can pay for itself many times over.
Here are the 7 easy steps to higher
bean yields and profits.
ADAPTED SEED VARIETY
• for your day length or latitude,
with proper seed innoculation.

1

SOIL TESTING
. pH adjustment; addition of correct
amount of N, K and P if called for after
test.

2

PROPER PLANTING DEPTH
. for your soil —and correct plant
population to obtain good stand.

3

PROPER EQUIPMENT
. well maintained and adjusted for
planting and harvesting. Clean out
sprayers carefully—check nozzles —
calibrate.
•

4

CORRECT TIMING
&gt; early planting—care in harvesting
before beans shatter.

5

THESE 2 BIG STEPS MAKE
THE OTHER 5 PAY OFF
GOOD SEED BED PREPARATION
. No clods, crop trash or foreign ma­
terials. Preparing a smooth seed bed
is especially necessary. If seed bed is
not smooth, skips can occur when using
any pesticide, liquid or granular.

6

AMIBEN
, for control of both broadleaf weeds
and grasses.

7

Based upon an average price of $2.47
per bushel to the grower, Amiben
banded at the 2 lb. rate recommended
for most soils, returns to many farm­
ers enough to pay for the herbicide
about 2 to 6 times over. And that’s real
profit for any grower whose manage­
ment practices are good enough so
that superb weed control can make the
big difference.

See your dealer today for Amiben
—No. 1 in soybeans by a wide mar­
gin—because it controls most an­
nual broadleaf weeds and grasses
with one pre-emergence applica­
tion at planting—leaves no soil
residue to affect rotational crops.
Available as liquid concentrate or
in granular form.

�An acre of land can support just so much plant growth at once, says University of
Illinois agronomist Ellery Knake. “A cornfield free of weeds may produce 8,000 lbs. of
grain and stalks. The same field with 2,000 lbs. of weeds will produce only 6,000
lbs. of com,” he explains. His studies show just one pigweed over 10 inches of row
can cut com yields 17 bushels per acre and soybean yields 15 bushels per acre —
losses costing you $20 to $35 per acre.
Cultivators are not obsolete, but on many Cornbelt farms they re not getting the
workout they once did. That’s because progressive farmers have found that herbicide
applications are more effective and less costly than two or three trips over the field
with a large tractor and cultivator. Many herbicide users are now getting by with
only one cultivation, and others have stored away their cultivators right along
side the old hay loader.
Willard Henderson, Fowler, Indiana
wanted to check the effectiveness of
Amiben on his bean field. He pur­
posely skipped the strip at left with
his sprayer. "I'm convinced," says
Henderson.

Weeds weren’t too great a problem when the cross-check wire was still popular.
But when “checked” com was cast aside in favor of higher plant populations about
a decade ago, effective weed control became a bigger problem. Each year more
and more farmers have turned to chemicals for the answer.
The vast majority are highly satisfied with the results. Many non-believers have
become believers after seeing chemicals perform in a neighbor’s field. Side-by-side
comparisons, such as that shown in the photo included with this story, provide plenty
of convincing evidence.Basically, weeds cause losses four ways:
1 — Crowing in the crop row, they absorb light, and they consume nitrogen, phos­
phorous, potash, moisture and trace minerals necessary for good crop growth.
In soybeans, it has been shown that one foxtail plant growing every four inches
in the row will consume enough of these elements to produce an extra 2.3 bushels per
acre. One foxtail spaced every inch eats up enough moisture and nutrients to produce
an extra 6.6 bushels per acre.
Using a pre-emergence herbicide such as Amiben, it has been proven that, by
controlling both broadleaf weeds and grasses, soybeans develop more, heavier pods
per plant and yield 3 to 9 extra bushels per acre.
2 — Broadleaf weeds and grasses offer shelter to mites, insects and disease organisms
Even growing along fence lines and ditch banks, weeds have been known to cause
the infestation of entire fields.
3 —The third way weeds reduce yields is at harvest. Since the cutter bar cannot
be adjusted to harvest the lowest pods on the plant, many bushels are left in the field.
4 — Dockage losses for soybeans that contain weed seeds are the fourth penalty
growers pay for raising weeds along with their soybeans. The charges at the ele­
vator for cleaning and reprocessing such beans is deducted from the price paid to
the farmer.
These four losses from weeds aren’t immediately obvious. Soil nutrients, moisture
harvest losses and dockages are the hidden costs of raising soybeans — they don’t
show up until the yield is weighed, measured, analyzed and examined for weed
seed. By controlling weeds and grasses, these losses can be reduced, yields can be
increased and profits can be raised $7.50 to $22.50 per acre!

♦P.S. You con afford it ... 22 day* for under $800!
Farm &amp; Home readers who have taken advantage of our tours in the
past have told ns how thoroughly they have enjoyed these tours with us,
so we are now taking the BIG STEP and are announcing here and now
the Grandaddy of all Farm &amp; Home tours to date—Farm &amp; Home’s 1966
European Jet Holiday.
Departure dates for the 1966 Jet Holiday are fairly well set It is our
intention to give every one of our midwestem readers a choice of four de­
parture dates as follows: June 2, June 30, August 4, or October 6. Farm
&amp; Home Secpon also considers itself most fortunate in being able to se­
cure the carrier services of Pan American World Airways for the tour.
But, of course, the best news of all is that this 1966 European Jet Holi­
day will be a 22-day vacation from the time you leave New York City
until the time you return to New York City . . . and the price of this tour
covering all costs from New York City and back will be under $800 per
person!

For our midwestem readers. Farm &amp; Home’s 1966 European Jet Holi­
day promises to be the most painless, most inexpensive, most memorable
vacation ever taken! We have the world’s most experienced airline as our
carrier! We have chosen the best places in Europe to visit and most im­
portant of all, you will be traveling with the greatest people in the world
— fellow midwesterners just like yourself.
You undoubtedly know a great deal about Europe already, but to re­
fresh your manor)', let’s do a quick rundown on the Europe you will see
on Farm &amp; Home’s 1966 European Jet Holiday:
PARIS — Anyone weary of marching from monument to monument
with a weighty guidebook and aching feet will find consolation in Paris. &gt; '
The French capital has come up with many ways to eliminate the drudgery
of sightseeing.
You can take the Champagne Shopping Tour of Paris and climb aboard
a limousine equipped with chauffeur, guide, and a bottle of champagne
and, in a few hours, return to your hotel laden with treasures and com­
pletely relaxed; or
You can take a Flea Market Tour of Paris via the subway or taxi Here,
there is no champagne to bolster the courage, but you will find bargains
galore in Paris shops; or
You can turn Paris sightseeing into an air-conditioned dream on a "full
vision, double decker bus” covering Paris from the broad boulevards to
the top of Montmartre. These buses provide guides, bar service and stereo­
phonic music.
Of course, in Paris we must visit the bistros, which are really collector’s
items. A bistro, as you know, is a small cafe where the food is "haute
cuisine* and the prices are rock bottom. Many American tourists in Paris

�Europe This Summer
prefer die enthusiasm of the Parisian bistros to the outdated
sport of learning the can-can.
LONDON — Anyone who can tear himself away from the
temptations of world-reknown London will find hearty sight­
seeing fare in the countryside around the capital Typical of
this is a two-day trip covering Oxford, Shakespeareland, War­
wick Castle, the Cotswold villages and Sulgrave Manor. This
includes 240 miles of travel, lodging at a historic inn, tickets
to the Royal Shakespeare Theater in Stratford, and inci­
dentals.
'
All sorts of literary and historical ties make London an
ideal stop-off for Americans. The familiar culture and lan­
guage allows everyone to fully enjoy the adventures in this
tradition-laden land.
ROME — This beautiful city of .Italy of late has de­
veloped a fashionable riviera stretching north and south for
sixteen miles from the capital. Of course, those of you who
are cafe-sitters will always fondly refer to the Via Veneto
which winds through the heart of Rome.
Near Rome, you can visit the aristocratic settlement of
Santa Marinella — once the hideaway for Ingrid Bergman
and Roberto Rossellini. Then, of course, you can visit Anzio,
made famous during World War II, with its circular harbor
built by Nero. Then, beyond a few miles is Monte Circeo
where, according to Homer, Circe lured the sailors of Ulysses.
AMSTERDAM — Anyone who wants to see the picture
postcard Holland of windmills and wooden shoes, baggy
pants and billowing skirts had better hurry. When the dili­
gent Dutch get down to work, things change fast Someday
the Zuider Zee may even disappear right off the map. The
•Dutch, who are always a bit pressed for land, have drained
much of the famous Zee to add another million acres to their
realm.
Amsterdam today has more waterways than Venice. One
canal, incidentally, is broader than the Panama Canal, and

J

another is longer than the Suez! The city, built on 90 islands,
is tied together by no fewer than 636 bridges. The runways
at Amsterdam’s airport — once a lake — are 13 feet below
sea level.
These are some of the sights we will see on our 1966
European Jet Holiday. If you would like more information
and are seriously considering a European vacation, clip the

been opened, improved or used,

holders, namely the Cuylers,
and that Thursday, March 24,
be set for the hearing of any
objection to the resolution.
The council members unanamously adopted the resolution.
The resolution had been tabled
at the last regular meeting of
the counciL The reason was
because when the resolution
was read it did not coincide
with what had been discussed
in previous council meetings,
and the council members need­

Some eighty employees were
in the building when the fire
was first discovered. Many of

1 these were on the second story
immediately above the point
of origin of the fire.
The cause of the fire is not
yet known. Some welding was
oeiug done in the area early
in the morning, but the fire
was discovered at about
'
10:40.
Blakley said that very little
interruption in the work sched­
ule is expected as a result of
the fire. He said the plywood
department might be out of
production for 2 or 3 weeks,
out other departmenu of the
plant were back to work on
Tuesday afternoon.
Blakley said that a load of
plywood valued at about
$5, 000 had just been removed
from the area of the fire. He
said the truck driven by Clar­
ence Rohrabacher had pulled
away from the loading dock
when the alarm was sounded.
Rohrabacher returned to the
plant and helped fight the
fire.
At times the building was
so filled with smoke that it
was impossible for the fire
fighters to go into it without
special equipment for breath­
ing.
Blakley said that the man­
agement of the company cred­
its the quick response of all
involved with the saving of the
building.
Fire chief Forrest Babcock,
the new president of the Barry
County Fire Association e x pressed his thanks to the Has­
tings and the Vermontville fire
departmenu for their quick re­
sponse to his call for aid.

* Agriculture is more than

FFA theme

"Agriculture'!! more than farming" is the theme for F uture
Farmers of Afnerica Week, February 19 - 26.
Many persons trained in agriculture are empl
;d innon-farming occupations. Agriculture is by far the natir
largest single
ictal U. S. popindustry. While the percentage of farm people to tota'
ulation Is declining, there still are 14.3 million perso
on farms. The value of farm products sold in 1965 ws
cess of 40 billion dollars.
There are 450, 000 Future Farmers in the nation belonging to
some 9,000 chapters. There are 50 FFA members in the Maple
Valley Chapter led by the following officers: Larry Redman,
president; Dave Shilton, vice-president; Paul Goforth, treasurer;
Ray Burd, secretary; Chuck Dies, reporter; Melvin Burd, Sentin­
el; and Mr. Terry Chesebco, advisor.
The FFA has a basketball team this year and play other FFA
apters. The first game was Thursday, February 17 against the

plane took off a bit late but
everything else seemed right so
they sat back and relaxed for
the short trip to the big city.
When they got to O'Hare field
though, it was socked in and
they couldn't land.
Sb the plane circled around
for a while waiting for the sig­
nal to go in. After a while the
crew thought it best to go to
South Bend to sit down. They
couldn't get in there either, so
they hung around that area
waiting tor the clearance to
land.

then tried it again. This time

they wbre unable to get in to
O'Hare again but they went
over to Midway where they

The trip took somewhat over
four hours to make--just about
what it would take to drive it.
The Wens said they enjoyed
the ride and the lunch.

High school students
take Merit tests
Maple Valley High School will administer the National Merit
Scholarship Qualifying Test (NMSQT) to about 20 students at8:30
am on Tuesday, March 1, Forest Rinehart, principal, announced
today. The NMSQT, a two and one-half hour test of educational
development, is the first step in the twelfth annual competition
for four-year Merit Scholarships. Students who wish to be consid­
ered for the Merit Scholarships to be awarded in 1967 must take
the NMSQT on this date.
All students' scores will be reported to their schools before May
15, together with interpretive and guidance materials for schools
and students. About 14,000 Semifinalists, the highest scores in
each state, will be announced publicly on September 22, 1966,
The names of Semifinalists will be sent to colleges and organiza­
tions offering financial aid to undergraduates. In October approxi­
mately 38, 000 students who score just below the level required of
Semifinalists will receive Letters of Commendation for their high
performance, although they will not be eligible to compete for
Merit Scholarships.
Each Semifinalist will be required to substantiate his NMSQT
performance in the 1966-67 Merit Program.
Finalists who win Merit Scholarships will be selected on the
basis of school records and recommendations, test scores, extra­
curricular activities, leadership ability, and accomplishments
outside the classroom. The awards range from $100 to $1500 per
year according to the student's need. About three-fourths of the
2004 Merit Scholarships awarded in 1965 were sponsored by cor­
porations, foundations, colleges, associations, unions, trusts or
individuals.

privilege, the allegations have
hinted at attempts to "buy"
legislators' allegiance.
-

By ELMER E. WHITE SEC’Y
MICHIGAN PRESS ASSOCIATION

LOOK AT LOBBYISTS

Lobbying activities have been
under scrutiny several times in
• recent years but every attempt to
tighten Michigan's law regard­
ing legislative agents have come
to little.
The public eye may be trained
more firmly on the Legislature's
disposal of lobby law changes
this year because of the recent
disclosures regarding the activi­
ties conducted in behalf of the
People's Community Hospital
Authority in suburban Wayne
County.
This is the first investigation in
recent years which has resulted in
any legal charges being placed
against the people involved.
Suice no trials have yet been
conducted, it would be presump­
tuous and improper to draw any
conclusions about this case.

Lobbying is generally a veryhonorable, demanding, and
tiring occupation. It requires
long nours, great patience, and

powers that be were not entirely
satisfied with the few willing hands
that had been raised and wanted
to see more volunteers.

natruunotioni.

Good will of legislators is
something that is acquired, not
bought. The intelligent, well
principled lobbyist, by far the
majority, is well aware of this.
Companies and agencies which
hire lobbyists recognize this
fact too.'
Seasoned lobbyists hate the
thoughts of more laws and regu­
lations, primarily because those
who try'to operate honestly and
with integrity do so without laws
which limit their effectiveness.
Those who disregard present laws
can be expected to disregard fu­
ture laws too.
It's the same old story: the
trouble is more with the people
than with the system of laws.
"You just can't legislate morality. "

probably foremost, a most unu­
sual ability to get along with
others.
. The lobbyist's chief job is to
keep legislators informed of the
viewpoint on various bills held
by the agent's employer and'vice
versa. The lobbyist is essen­
tially a salesman selling an idea,
hoping the legislator will adopt
it and try to sell it to others in
turn.
A lobbyist must try to convince

from a corporation.
Consider a large corporation in/

about to retire. The president
and board are not quite enthusi­

vice president to the soon-to-bevacant slot. How many' lower
vice presidents and other execu­
tives do you think would be clam­

aware of this sentiment?
This reportedly was essentially
the situation which brought the
numerous Republican office­
holders to publicly declare they

The Senior trip is getting
closer. Two more months and
the senion will be off--the
first week of May.
Sallea Moore, a senior at
MV has been selected to attend
"Operation Bentley" at Michi­
gan State University for three
weeks in June. There are four
Eaton County high school sen­
iors who will attend. Under
"Operation Bentley" students
have the opportunity to partici­
pate and act as government of­
ficials, such as head of the
State Highway Commission, etc.
It's not only a lot of fun and
kicks to the student, but gives
him a chance to understand his
government better--to be a
better citizen himself. Sallea's
alternate is Bob Mason.
The title of the Junior Play
for this year has been chosen
as "It's Great To Be Crazy. “
It will be on March 31 and Aprii 1. The director is Mrs.
Greta Flrster.

Seventeen girls in contest

or Maple Syrup Queen
is less than a month away, and farmers are beginning to
maple syrup making, politicians are thinking of elec tions, and tne girls in the Vermontville area are turning their
thoughts to maple syrup festival queens.
Carl Thrun of the Vermontville Maple Syrup Festival corpor­
ation is already making plans to elect a 1966 festival queen. On­
ly Vermontville girls who are juniors in the Maple Valley high
school are eligible to enter the contest. To date 17 girls have in­
dicated their interest.
Within the next few days the girls vote among themselves and
the five candidates receiving the highest number of votes will
compete for top honors. The Vermontville Lions club will put on
a dinner for the five girls, and judges representing the Lions club,
. Chamber of Commerce, American Legion, and Evening Guild and
the Vermontville Woman's club, will interview the girls and se­
lect a queen and an alternate. The queen will receive her crown
on Saturday, April 30, the day of the big- syrup festival, and the
other girls will serve as her court of honor.
Mr. Thrun expects to have the new queen selected eaily
in
March. Already he is making plans to have the new queen attend
the Geauga County festival to be held March 25, 26 and 27, at
Chardon, Ohio, when the National queen will be selected. The
Vermontville queen will be entered as a candidate for the nation­
al honors.

backstreet barometer
One of our favorite topics of
conversation seems to be the weath­
er. That is the one thing in Mich­
igan that we can be sure will
change from day to day.
Old Mark Twain once said that
everybody talks about the weath­
er, but nobody does anything a­
bout it. Things have changed
since Sam's day though, and now
people are doing things about it:
The National Academy of
Sciences and the National Science
foundation recently urged a far
greater expenditure of federal
money for weather research. They
said this might make it possible.
- To modify or steer hurricanes
away from populated regions.
- To supress hurricanes before
they develop.
- To change the course and
violence of cyclones.
-To break up or prevent tor­
nadoes.
•
-To abolish persistent regional
smogs.
This all looks good to me, and
as a taxpayer I couldn't care less
what the Federal boys do with my
money. As a matter of fact, it
seems it would be better spent

here than on some other projects
I have heard about.
1 guess men have tried for ages
to do something about the weath­
er, The Indians used to do a rain
dance which they thought was ef­
fective. Perhaps some of our gogo dances are responsible for the
fact that we have had a light win­
ter.
Anyway, I have a release on
my desk that says cloud seeding
can reduce the number and dan­
ger of lightning bolts in thunder­
storms. This method can also pro­
duce rain or snow under proper
conditions and it can also get rid
of fog. The seeding is done from
an airplane most generally. They
carry dry ice, salt particles, wa­
ter spray, or silver iodide.
If
conditions are favorable, tiny
droplets of water from the cloud
collect around each "seed" and
fall to the earth as rain or snow.
They say that often seeding can

By ELMER E. WHITE SECY
MICHIGAN PRESS ASSOCIATION
MORE WORKERS

'

Watch for increased emphasis
• in the Legislature this year on
two fronts: implementing and
supplementing federal programs
designed to alleviate unemploy­
ment problems.
Several programs are now func­
tioning in Michigan under the
Office of Economic Opportunity
and the Office of Manpower,
Automation and Technology.
These will be expanded and new
ones initiated.'
With unemployment at its
lowest point in more than a
decade, efforts now turn toward
working with that small percent­
age of the labor force known as
the hard-core unemployed.
These are people out of work
for an extended period of time,
frequently because of inability
to fit into jobs which are avail­
able.

Considerable emphasis was
placed on the job training­
retraining problems in the Gov-

ernor's sure of the state message
early this year.
"When available jobs cannot
be filled with unemployed Mich­
igan residents who want work,
something is wrong with our
basic educational training or
apprenticeship programs, ’said
Gov. George Romney.
Since the Negro population
makes up a high percentage of
the hard-core unemployed,
civil rights activity will be a
major factor in the new efforts.
Another primary target of the
state effort will be the children
of women on Aid to Dependent
Children. Several agencies are
now working on ideas to give
education and work incentives
to these children sb they will
not become second generation
welfare recipients.
Improvement in existing
training and apprenticeship
programs will be one key in the
several-pronged program to
further lighten the unemploy­
ment rolls.
One facet of it will be geared
toward training people to work

in state agencies now facing
critical employment shortages,
including social service units
and the fields of mental health
and corrections.

Several maps are now print­
ed by the state, including the
official highway map, a his­
torical attractions chart, and
one listing recreational acti­
vity areas.
Still another may soon be
necessary to help the visitor
find his way around the state
government building complex
in Lansing.
Architectural models show a
beautifully landscaped layout
dotted with seven spotless
buildings in a four-block area.
Things should look that way
four or five years in the future.

In 1970, the Supreme and
Appellate Courts will be in
separate structures at the other
end of the complex from the
CapitoL And the Capitol will
probably grow in the interim.
Since the building program
calls for construction on several
buildings at the same time, it
appears that even frequent
visitors could use a map to
locate various offices as work
is progressing.
A JOB FOR ALL

The admirable, but defin­
itely not conservative, goal is

8 million recruits to the cause.
Sixteen men, plus a few, hope
to accomplish this goal for the
May ,15-21 observance of Mich­
igan Week.
x
The figure 8 million, of
course, is roughly the state's
population. By comparison,
Michigan Week involved just a
handful of people when it
started in 1954 as a means to
concentrate the public's aware­
ness of our state's advantages
in industrial, natural and human
resources.
What has happened in the
intervening years that such a
high goal should be set for 1966?
A look at the current effort
might serve to answer at least
part of this question.

Michigan Week starts the
third Sunday in May. It is
headed by a general chairman
and four deputies, representing
the north, west, central and
southeast areas of the state.
Sixteen regional chairmen
in turn direct 83 county heads,
each responsible for organizing
all communities in Michigan
Week activities.
Breaking it down further in
program preparation. These
are grouped in six activity
boards concerned with business
and products, cultural activities,
education, programs, organiza­
tions and public relations.
Each of the seven days in
the week has a special desig­
nation to observe various facets
of Michigan's activities.
The aims of Michigan Week

make it clear why the high
volume recruitment is under
way. The objectives are: to
buud state pride and knowledge
among Michigan people, to
sell the state's advantages to
the nation and the world, and
to get all Michigan people to­
gether in programs for tne
state's advancement.

Doctors warn of
measles' complications
Dr. Brown, Director of the
Barry County Health Department
announces a sharp increase in
the number of measles cases .
since the 1st of January. Thus
fax, 110 cases have been report­
ed as compared with 76 re ported for the entire year of
1965. How many are unreported
is difficult to estimate.
Measles ("Red", "10 day" or
"hard” measles) is an acute,
highly contagious disease of
childnood that can result in com­
plications. It is important to ob­
serve children closely and keep
them at home if any signs
of
illness occur--especially after
exposure to a known case. Visi­
tors to the home should be dis­
couraged in order to prevent
spreading the disease.

k.

The first signs of measles may­
be a "cold", watery eyes, fever
or a "brassy"
, cough. They us ually occur about 10 days after
exposure. The individual is inin­
fectious for about 1 or 2 days be­
fore the signs appear and for aa­
1bout 6~ days after the rash shows.

, .physician
.
carding vaccinating their chil ■
aren against this disease.
Measles vaccine is not available
at the Health Department as yet.
Dr. Brown also states that 11
cases of scarlet fever have been
reported. This also is a serious
contagious disease. Parents are
urged to contact the family doc­
tor whenever any contagious dis­
ease is suspecteu. Self-diag­
nosis can be dangerous and is
discouraged.

He gave a brief sketch of
his life until he went to work
for Mrs. Fetzer in 1960.
First, he said, one should
decide the location, the kind
of soil, if there was plenty of
sunshine, and most of all,
good drainage for a garden.
Then it is very important
to have the soil tested, to
be sure it has the right chem­

On March 28 and April 29,
Mr. Gary L Sandborn represent­
ing the Michigan Department
ot Revenue wfll be at Barry
County Probate Court between
the hours of 8:00 am and 5:00
pm for the purpose of assisting
taxpayers in the preparation of
their intangibles tax returns due
not later than April 30.
Intangible personal property
subject to the tax includes all
mortgages, land contracts, bank
accounts, cash, postal savings
accounts, accounts and notes
receivable, corporate stocks,
corporate bonds and other simi­
lar types of property. However,
all United States bonds, are
exempt from the tex, and the
tax on deposits in Michigan
banks and building and loan
associations, as well as stocks
in Michigan banks, will be paid
to the Department of Revenue
directly by the banks or build­
ing and loan associations.
" Under the present law as

amended by the Legislature in
1945, all Corporate Stocks are
100% taxable including Mich­
igan Corporations.
The Department has issued a
warning to all owners of proper­
ty, sucn as is outlined above,
to file the necessary return
forms prior to April 30. The
Revenue Department is con­
stantly engaged in checking
stockholders' lists, mortgage
records, income tax returns
and other data for the purpose
of discovering evasions of the
Intangibles Tax Act. Failure
to file a return when a tax is
due subjects the taxpayer to
severe penalties.
In addition to assisting tax­
payers in the preparation of
their returns, Mr. Gary Sand­
born will also be glad to advise
any person concerning his lia­
bility, if any, under the Intan­
gibles Tax Act.
Those desiring this advice or
assistance are requested to bring
with them full information con­
cerning their holdings, includ­
ing the face or par value, and
income received therefrom
during the year, and copy of
the previous year's return filed
with the Department.

means "A place for everything

Let it oe pointed out also tliat
zoning is not retroactive. It
stops no existing use of property.
Any legitimate activity being
carried on when an ordinance
becomes effective may be con­
tinued indefinitely at the pleas­

though it may be hurtful to the
community and not in harmony
with the primary purpose of the
district: However, any new uses
may be restricted, otherwise the

Thursday night's council meet­
ing to discuss zoning.
For many years zoning and
building codes have been highly
controversial subjects, probably
because they are less understood
than many other issues. Zoning
is certainly not intended to con­
strict people's rights, but rather
to help protect and maintain
what is good and desirable. Zon­
ing replaces chance, uncertain­
ty and helps to bring about com­
patibility and harmony in the use
of property. Without some type
of protection, such as provided
by zoning and building codes
just about anything can happen
in a community. Everyone
is
virtually free to use property as
one pleases with little regard for
the effect it may have on
his
neighbors. A slipshod trailer
camp, a junkyard, used-car lot,
a honkev tonk, a dump, or a
series of jerry-built shacks may
go in next to your property,
while if a good, desirable zon­
ing code exists the land and lo­
cation of buildings are best uti­
lized in the interest of all pro­
perty owners. If Nashville resi-

Voting in Michigan in 1966
can pose a challenge to the
conscientious resident, espe­
cially primary balloting.
:!S Sheer numbers of people
seeking state offices will ri­
val and possibly surpass the
record whose names were on
the ballot two years ago when
Legislative reapportionment
opened the magic doer to
many newcomers.
This year, while appor­
tionment may again be a
factor, two other major
changes are expected to in­
duce many people to run who
previously were only half­
hearted about public office.

CHEVROLET?)

For the first time, the Mich­
igan Senate candidates will
be elected to four-year terms
instead of two. The change
was decreed in the 1963 Con­
stitution.
Politicians view a two-year
term as a vicious circle. They
no sooner get elected and
learn the ropes of lawmaking
than it is time to begin a new
campaign.
Four yean, on the other
hand, gives a goodly period
to get something accomplished
if the legislator is so inclined.
It also provides opportunity
for more publicity. The more
times Mrs. John Public sees
the name of Sen. Joe Doe in
the local newspaper, the more
likely she is to remember it
on the ballot of the future.

Another influencing factor
is economics. It was at the
start of the 1966 session that
legislators began to draw
$10. 000 annually plus $2, 600
expenses.
Every indication Is the leg­
islaton will again raise their
salaries, effective in the 1967
session. The non-partisan
commission which studied the
question since last summer
has suggested it will recom­
mend another pay raise.
Voters who are really con­
cerned with their state gov­
ernment representation will
be hard pressed to determine
whom among the various
candidates are truly interested
in performing a public service
as opposed to those seeking
the security of a long Senate
term or the pleasure of a fat
salary.

Realism used to be a rarity
in the Michigan legislative
sessions, at least where time
schedules were concerned.
In the early days of the
current session, however, a
realistic attitude was taken
in this area. The lawmakers
replaced on April 15 sched­
uled date with the more
reasonable date of June 3 for
the final legislative action
of the year.
The problem was evident.
An estimated 1^500 bills were
left from the 1966 session, a.
condition new t o the law­

makers. A similar number
was expected in the form of
new introductions this session.
Senate Majority Leader
Raymond D. Dzendzel, DDetroit, put the problem
simply. "It's absolutely nec­
essary to set up a different
schedule unless you want us
all to have heart attacks. ”
he told his colleagues.

In bygone yean, the need
for more time than was sched­
uled was often readily a p parent to observers of the leg­
islative activity.
In 1W2, for example, a
Mid-May adjournment date
was set. Late in January, the
House Speaker admitted pri­
vately that it could not be met,
but the date was not changed
until finally it was extended
on a week-to-week basis when
May arrived.
Extension of the schedule
this year may pose some cam­
paign problems for a number
of lawmakers, but commen­
dation is due the leadership
for recognizing and remedying
early a potential problem be­
fore it became a critical one.

SALTY PLATES

Michigan may be bucking
the trend on auto license
plates, but state officials say
It is because of public demand.
Several states are switching
to heavy, durable metal which
provides a semi-permanent
license plate. Annual tabs
are issued to renew the vehicle
registration in most cases.
Motorists in Michigan will
readily recall the tabs issued
here after the 1969 cash crisis
situation. To Michigan offi­
cials it was a matter of econ­
omy.

Long-term plates are being
considered now in Ohio.
Michigan's Secretary of Sure
was among officials surveyed
by Ohio spokesmen on the
matter.
James M. Hare advised the
Ohio authorities that Michi­
gan has returned to the annual
Issue largely because of public
demand. Administrative of­
ficer! in other states said the
public readily accepted the
tab arrangement.
a An influencing factor in
Michigan's attitude was the
weather, Hare's office believes.
The last time tabs were used,
it was on a three-year plate.
The final winter of the cycle
was especially long and heavy
with snow, with the resulting
rust problems caused by road­
clearing chemicals.
Many an irate motorist
blamed an unreadable, rusted
license plate on the fact that
it had been on the car for
three years. The result of the
motorists complaints was a
conscious decuion by Michigan
officials to return to the prac­
tice of issuing annual plates,
at least as long as money is
readily available.

organization, apparently dis' covered the fire and reported it
to members of the village street
crew who were working on Main
Street. Earl Kinne turned in the
alarm...
The club rooms were so filled
with smoke that members of the
Volunteer fife department had
difficulty seeing the source of
the fire. A burning mattress was
discovased and carried, from-the
building.
Some pool tables were damaged by the fire as was a por tlon of the floor of the. structure.

Clothing collection down
Church World Service has released the information that the quan tity of clothing collected in Michigan in 1965 for distribution over seas was down! That is the wrong direction as far as need is con cerned. Certainly an affluent society in a period of prosperity ought
to have not less, but more used clothing to contribute. In this time
of war and widespread poverty in many areas, more clothing
and
blankets are urgently needed.
We have an opportunity here in Barry County to contribute to this
Jnited Clothing appeal of Church World Service, A truck from Church
World Service headquarters in Nappanee, Indiana, comes three times
a year to pick up new or used clothing and blankets donated in this
county.
The next clothing pick-up will take place this month. Churches are
to bring their collected clothing (accompanied by 100 per pound pro­
cessing costs) by March 18 to the parsonage garage of the Woodland
Church of the Brethren, 7310 Coats Grove Road.

James Rizor elected
village president
Nashville’s new Village Pres­
ident, James Rizor was swept
into office by somewhat of a
landslide, as was the rest of the
Republican ticket in Monday's
village election.
The Republicans received a
unanimous vote from the fiftyfive voters of the village who
went to the polls.
Ada Skedgell, incumbent,
was re-elected clerk. Marguer­
ite Wilson, also the incumbent,
was re-elected to the office of
treasurer. Frank Scramlin, in­

cumbent was re-elected trustee
for a full term.
Henry Fedewa and Gaylord
Gray were elected trustees for
the full term.
Carl Tuttle was re-elected to
the post of assessor.

Considering the fact that there
was no contest, the election
turn-out of 55 was rather sub­
stantiaL No doubt the spring
weather had something to do
with it.

Ted Teadt has
announced candidacy
Today Mr. Ted Teadt

Republican nomination for State
Representative from the 89th dis­
trict. Mr. Teadt is the founder

car was ordered from the Renner
Ford company of Hastings at a
cost of $1, 685. 00 plus the old
car, and will have heavy duty

have. Other companies sub­

that effect will be passed at the

The Woodards were down in
Detroit sometime over the week­
end and while they were eating
in a downtown restaurant, Dor­
othy Lamour came in and sat at
the table next to them. Fuzzy
said he didn't recognize her
without her wrong.

I have on my desk a copy of
a book called ’’Chases' Calen­
dar of Annual Events" and list-.
ed under this week,is something
called Buzzard D«ty. This is a
special day in Hinckley, Ohio,
when the buzzards return from
their winter quarters in the
Great Smoky Mountains to rear
their young. This special day
is sponsored by the Hinckley
Chamber of Commerce.
I don't know what we would
do here in Nashville. It seems
to me that the buzzards stay
the winter through.

Also listed is St. Patricks Day,
which they say commemorates
the patron saint of Ireland, Bis­
hop Patrick who in 432 A. D.
left his home in the Severn Val­
ley, England, and introduced
Christianity into Ireland.
They could be in for a good
deal of trouble here. A lot of
people seem to be fighting over
just whence came St. Pat. The
French claim him, the Welch
claim him and now this book
claims him for the English.
It is also said of him that in
addition to bringing Christian­
ity to the Emerald isle he also
drove the snakes out.
There are many who say this
is not true at alL St. Pat did
not drive the snakes out of Ire­
land. The truth of the matter
is that the Irish invented the
bagpipe along with Irish whis­
key. The ola boys would get

to France, Italy, Austria, and /
Germany, is Switzerland, a tiny
nation with a matchless variety
of attractions and populated with
a people who speak several lan­
guages. They are famous for
their efficiency, honesty and
clea niiness.
This is Switzerland, the his­
toric neutral country during the
last major wars, with a popula­
tion just a little more than half
of New York City's and about
twice the size of New Jersey.
When the name of Switzer­
land is mentioned, it usually
stirs the travel bug in most peo­
ple, because Switzerland has
all of those gorgeous things
you’ve read about since child­
hood. It is a tiny country, but
filled with high, rugged snow­
capped mountains that are un­
surpassed anywhere for sheer
beauty, picturesque old villages,
sparkling modern cities, rustic
simplicity and swank resorts.

The Nashville News May tour
group will spend quite a little
time in Lucerne, situated at the
west end of Lake Lucerne, and
because of this location, known
as the "Gateway to the Alps. "
Magnificent scenery surrounds
Lucerne and especially breath taking is the view of the lofty
heights of Mount Pilatus.
The group will view the Chap­
el Bridge, built in 1333 with
paintings on the beams depict­
ing the History of Lucerne, They
will see the Glacier Garden, a
natural monument of the Great
Ice Age, the town wall and its
bastions, and will be able to sit
and have coffee, tea or wine in
the quiet little shop where the
great composer Wagner spent
countless hours, and visit the
Wagner museum, '
Lucerne, with its lofty peaks
and blue waters and colorful for­
ests, captures all the true beauty
that is known as Switzerland.
From here the group turns east
to the tiny Principality of Leichtenstein, bounded on the east
by the River Rhine and on the
west by the towering Alps.

PUBLIC SAFEGUARD

OPEN LETTER

i

An open letter to the State
Democratic and Republican Party
leaders:
Many months of deliberation
and consultation have been spent
picking the men to head your
respective tickets in the tall
election.
Now is the time to give full
consideration to another set of
candidates for posts lower on the
ballot but tremendously important to all the people of Michi­
gan. These are the nominees
for the State Board of Education
and the governing hoards of the
"Big Three" universities. Mich­
igan, Wayne State and Michigan
State.

Many millions of dollars go
through these four boards in the
administration of education,
which could well be considered
one of Michigan's biggest busi­
nesses.
The State Board of Education
alone sets policies and programs,
and considers conditions and
criteria involving nearly $600
million a year. This includes
state and federal funds involving

the education process from kin­
dergarten through college.
The sheer volume of business
administered by each of these
boards demands competent,
proven people. To have other­
wise is to risk great loss in ed­
ucation and waste millions in
tax money.

No attempt is intended to
point the finger at present board
members.
It should be automatic that
nomination to these boards is
an honor and a privilege. It
also carries terrific responsibility.
There have been instances, '
fortunately not very recently,
when these nominations were
the last to be made. The can­

JUST WHAT YOUR CAR
HEEDS MOST RIGHT HOW

Scandal, or even the slightest
hint of it, seems to have a
strange attraction for state leg­
islators. As watchdogs of the
public interest, their tongues
hang low at the-thought of head­
lines awaiting the hero who ex­
poses the wrong-doing.
In recent years, it seems the
State Highway Department has
come in for, perhaps, more
than its share of scandal rumors.

Latest in the series was to be
related bv State Sen. S. Don
Potter, Lansing Republican
serving his first term after a
good many years observing the
Capitol scene.
Strong language was used be­
fore the scandal was to be dis­
closed. Soft language was used
when Potter disclosed his " in­
side man," a highway depart­
ment employee, had changed
his mind about testifying volun­
tarily.
One of the previous scandal
searches into the highway unit
ended the same way. Another
took a completely different
turn, which might well serve
as a. good example for future
heacRne hunters: to save their
breath.

Within the past decade a
Senator, no longer in office.
Creclaimed loud and long that
e knew of irregularities, some
perhaps involving fraud or other
criminal offenses, going on in
the department.
A full Senate committee in­
vestigation ensued. Many
months and a thick committee
report later, this Senator
.changed his tune considerably.
Essence of the report was that
with the millions of dollars and
thousands of people involved,
there were bound to be rumors
of improperieties and irregu­
larities. When all was said and
done, however, the department
was given a hearty pat on the
back for the job it was doing.

Even before al. the money
was collected to build Michi­
gan's new Motor Vehicle Ac­
cident Claims Fund, the ap­
plications for collections were
pouring in to the Secretary of
State's office.
Secretary of State James M.
Hare reported some 300 claims
had been filed by motorists
wronged by uninsured driven.
This was before the Feb. 28
deadline for auto registrations,
when insured driven paid $1
into the fund and uninsured
motorists contributed $35.
By that time details for ad­
ministering tne new law had
been worked out. It operates
similarly to the procedure of
collecting from an insurance
company.
Motorists involved in an ac­
cident with an uninsured driver
must give all pertinent data
about the crash to the state:
people involved, police agency
to whom it was reported, an
accident scene diagram, etc.
A claims adjuster takes over
to negotiate a settlement, de­
pending on the individual cir­
cumstances of each incident.
If a settlement is impossible
through negotiation, the case
will be taken to court to de­
termine damages.
Hare noted the fund opera­
tion wai working even better
than was anticipated in the
early weeks. Only time will
tell whether the $35 and $1
fees are sufficient to settle
claims against uninsured motor­
ists or whether compulsory auto
insurance legislation will be
the next nep.

school calendar

-’•«

At the regular board of cdu cation meeting held Monday,
March 14, 1966, the school cal­
endar for the 1966-67 school
year was adopted. Two possible
school calendars had been given
the teachers last week, and the
board of,education accepted the
calendar which received the
most support from the teaching
staff. The calendar calls for
186 membership days and 180
days with students in attendance.
The school year will open
with teacher's meetings on Sep­
tember 6. The first day of school
will be on September 7th in the
morning only with teacher’s
meetings in the afternoon. The
fall M.E. A. conference isscheduled for October 6-7, and there
will not be any school on these
dates. The Christmas vacation
will begin at 3:30 pm on De­
cember 22, and the students
will return to school on January

Spring vacation will begin
at noon on Good Friday, March
24, 1967, and the students will
return to school on Monday, A­
pril 3. This will continue the
policy of having a week's vaca­
tion which will oe held this year
beginning at noon on Good Fri­
day, April 8, and the students
returning to school on Monday,
April 18th. The school year will
end on Friday, June 9, 1967.
The Board of Education voted
to hold all the graduation activi­
ties this year at the Jr-Sr. High
School building. Now that the
school district has adequate fa­
cilities inside and the unpredic­
table weather conditions at that
time of year, it was felt advis­
able to change from the athlet­
ic fields where the activities
have been held in recent years.
Baccalaureate will be held Sun­
day, May 29, and graduation on
June 2, in the high school gym­
nasium. Class night on May 31
will be held in the auditorium.
The elementary building in
Nashville which was the former
high school, will be called the
Kellogg Elementary. The board
of education plans to meet with
Mr. Binda next Monday to dis­
cuss the completion of the south
wall of this building and the
demolition of the old Jr. high
building in Vermontville. Also,
there are some items concerning
work in the Jr-Sr. high school
which will be discussed.
The Board of Education voted
to install a Torit Dust Collector

�'RSDAY

�ST. PATRICK'S DAY
ccording to an old saying, "There’s a little bit of Irish in
all of us.” So, there’s ho reason why each of us should­
n't celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. Maybe you’ll want to give a
"Leprechaun Luncheon” or a "Luck of the Irish” supper
party. Or how about making your March 17 evening meal a
family party.
Select a green cloth for your dinner, or use green paper
napkins and add a shamrock or two on a white cloth. You'll
find the shamrocks at a variety store or you can easily make
your own from green paper.
Naturally there should be foods to remind the diners of
this special day. We’re suggesting Barm Brack Bread, Sham­
rock Salad and Sf. Patrick’s Ice Cream for your tribute to
the Irish.

VEGETABLES
hree vegetables—potatoes, onions and celery—should
receive top billing the year 'round in your meal planning.
They're readily available in all seasons. And these vegetables
can be prepared in such a variety of ways that one needn’t
tire of them.
All three vegetables are compatible with other foods, so
for a change of pace we suggest you “mix and match.” Nat­
ural go-togethers are ham and scalloped potatoes. Other
winning combinations are a Celery and Potato Casserole and
Celery Oriental, a celery and mushroom combination.

�or centuries rice has been one of the diet mainstays of
people in all parts of the world. And today the shelves of
the American supermarkets are loaded with all kinds of rice
and rice products.
Generally rice is available in three ways — regular, con­
verted and packaged precooked. Regular rice — the kind
that has had all the outer layers removed, but has not been
treated in any other way — may be short, medium or long
grain. Converted rice has been treated so that It retains
most of its minerals and vitamins. And precooked rice is
completely cooked
all you need to do in preparation is
steam the rice for a few minutes in hot water.
Whichever type you select, rice is a natural for Lenten
dishes. Make it into a hearty main dish for the family or give
it a gourmet touch for that next company meal.

Looking for your refrigerator to replace the
old-fashioned method of yeast bread making?
We're suggesting the Fruit Nut Bread in this
issue of Farm and Home Section for a taste
treat. The quick, easy and convenient
"CoolRise way" of yeast bread making used
in the Fruit Nut Bread allows you to have the
best in breads with a minimum of time and
effort. In 45 minutes you can have two
loaves ready for the oven. After this initial
operation of mixing, kneading and shaping,
refrigerate the panned loaves for at least 2
hours—or up to 24 hours. Then whenever
you want hot bread simply take a loaf from
the refrigerator, bake and serve.

�little- brown church
The Rev. Glenn Utterback stands in front of his
church. The Little Brown Church in the Vale
has been a marriage shrine since 1916. Some
100,000 persons visit it each year. It is located
in Chicksaw County, la., two miles northeast
of Nashua.

J had heard many times of the
Little Brown Church in the
Vale. As a child, I joined my
fellow Sunday Schoolers in sing­
ing the lively strains of the
hymn that made die church fa­
mous — “Church in the Wild­
wood.”
Now, driving through northcm Iowa, I was determined to
pay a visit to the world-famous

Stopping at a restaurant sev­
eral miles away, I was sipping
a cup of coffee when my con­
ception of the rustic church
was badly jolted.
A salesman remarked off­
handedly: “The Little Brown
Church? Nothing more than an
automated marriage mill. A
place where they marry couples
like an assembly line. No feel­
ing, no emotion . . .”
Could his notion be correct,
I mused. I was determined to
check it out
I put the question to the Rev.
Glenn Utterback, pastor there
the last 12 years and the man
who has guided the Congrega­
tional church to its greatest,
and most active membership

wu MytotookU uA KaJio!

�flashing a ready grin, Mr. Utterback shook his head at my
question.
He thought a moment. Outside, cars whizzed by on High­
way 346, a blacktop road through fields of black dirt and
kingsize com stalks. Inside, a record player gave forth with
the vigorous tune written in 1857 by William Pitts, a country
physician. Over and over it played, softly, persistently.
"You’re asking if the Little Brown Church has a heart," Mr.
Utterback summarized. “Let me give you a couple illustra­
tions and you can decide for yourself.”
He told the story of the middle-aged couple who had
stood on the brink of a semantical disaster. During tteir
wedding ceremony, Mr. Utterback had asked the bridegroom
(a widower):
.
“Will you love, cherish, honor, comfort and keep her in
sickness and in health; and forsaking all other women, keep
yourself only unto her; so long as you both shall live?
“I’ll try," answered the bridegroom.
The clergyman’s mouth dropped open. The flabbergasted
bride-to-be reddened, wheeled and hashed past her friends
and out the church.
The marriage appeared over before it began. But Mr. Ut­
terback and his wife, Ruth, stepped into the picture. They
took the distraught couple aside and talked to them at length.
Had the bridegroom been as arrogant as his answer indi­
cated?
No. In fact, he was quite humble, ascertained the 27th pas­
tor of the Little Brown Church. The bridegroom’s first mar­
riage had been less than successful and he felt he was partly
at fault. ‘
His “I’ll try” answer merely indicated that he would try
with all his heart to make the union a fruitful one.
The minister and his wife set the couple down to a homecooked meal in the Utterback’s residence in nearby Nashua.
Two hours later, they became man and wife.
“And do you know that I still get a card from them every
Christmas,” Mr. Utterback said. “The husband always ends
it by saying:
“‘And I’m still trying.’"
Mr. Utterback has married some 30,000 couples in his long
career in the ministry, but for all his romanticism, he has a
pragmatic side, too.
The Little Brown Church, I found, possesses a magical
quality. The visitor feels a deep sense of respect and humility
in its hallowed interior. Its bucolic simplicity and solemnity
melt away one’s cynicism and “worldly sophistication."
The marriage shrine is used so often that the energetic
minister has united 18 couples in a single day.
“From 8 in the morning till 11 at night," he said.
“But I don't mind. Marriage is one of the most sacred and
holy gifts God gave to man. Each one is a source of great
«joy to me.”
Those who wait impatiently on a busy summer day, how­
ever, sometimes regard the ritual in another light, he said.
“One sizzling day in July a couple arrived without ap­
pointment, wanting to get married. I told them to wait, and
I’d try to squeeze them
“Three hours later, they were still sitting in the back pew.
As I passed by them after a wedding, I remarked: 1 see you’re
still PATIENTLY waiting.’"
“‘No sir,’” the bridegroom answered respectfully. “*We’re
just waiting.”
Some 1,000 couples are married each year at the Little
Brown Church (an average of almost three per day). Rarely
are any of them similar.
1 Mr. Utterback has had faintings (once both the bride and
groom went down), a “hypnotized” groom who had to be
nudged in the ribs to respond, and innumerable delayed ceremonies.
“I always look at the size of the father when the bride­
groom tells me he forgot the wedding ring or marriage license
—at home 150 miles away,” the preacher quipped.

Mr. Utterback has had several triple weddings (once a
mother and her son and daughter). He also permitted an
Indian chief to sing to his bride during the marriage rite.
On another occasion, the Utterbacks took in a confused,
hurt young man; the best man at a wedding there earlier in
the day He had been naive enough to think that he would
ride back to St. Paul with his brother and sister-in-law.
After a hot meal and some help with the bus fare, the
youth boarded a bus for home.
Does the Little Brown Church have a heart? There is little
doubt in my mind.

EUROPEAN
JET HOLIDA
By Jtrry Currgn

ave you heard . . . Midwesterners are going to
Europe in 1966. Many are going to be going
on Fann and Home’s 1966 European Jet Hr': J
You can go, too, ... it doesn’t cost much.
Departure dates have been set for this 1966 Jet
Holiday. At first, it was thought a choice of four
departure dates would be offered. However, in look­
ing over the accommodations in European hotels
during certain times of 1966, Farm and Home Sec­
tion decided that in order to give the midwestern
traveler the best for hi* money, only three depar­
ture dates should be offered on the European Jet
Holiday and that these dates be: May 10, September 13, and October 11.
The 1966 European Jet Holiday includes 22 days for $799.00—from
New York City and back! This makes the tour one of the most inex­
pensive first class tours ever offered to Europe.
Realizing that midwesterners like to travel with midwesterners, this
Farm andTlome 1966 European Jet Holiday will have people just like
yourself going to Europe . . . and most of them for the first time.
Knowing that midwesterners are somewhat concerned when confronted
with foreign travel, Farm and Home Section has undertaken the re­
sponsibility of making all the arrangements, assuring those going on the
European Jet Holiday of top notch hotels, air conditioned motor
coaches while in Europe, excellent food, choice international transpor­
tation plus the best there is to see on the continent The world’s most
renowned airline — Pan American World Airways — has been signed
by Farm and Home Section as the official airline for this 1966 European
Jet Holiday. A Pan American Jet Clipper will take those going on the
European tour from New York City to the first stop on the European
itinerary — Amsterdam. From Amsterdam, the members of the tour
will travel all over Europe via motor coaches endin" up at Paris,
France. There, another Pan American Jet Clipper will pick up the tour
and fly them to London, England. Following a few days in London,
members of die tour will again board a Pan American Jet Clipper for
the return trip to the United States.

H

So let us give you a hand on your way to Europe.

We fly straight through to 27 European cities from the
U.S.A. No one else flies to even half that many.
And we have the most flights, too.
So the first thing for you to do is see a Pan Am
Travel Agent, or call us direct. We’ll see that you
get from your hometown to Europe with a minimum
of fuss. We’ll take care of connections. We’ll give
you the low-down on the high-life in Europe. What
to do, where to go, who to -know.
Before you know it, you’ll be living it up in Europe
And wherever you go with us, you’ll have the good
feeling that comes from flying the very best there is.
It’s a good feeling, any day.

yields up to 225 bu. com per acre, 100
bu. wheat, 30 tons tomatoes, 5 tons hay,
twice as much milk from pastures.

It takes the first 50 bu. of com to meet
your costs — the more you grow per
acre, the lower your cost, the more you
make. You save money too. Fertilizing
by guess wastes both time and money.

NO KNOWLEDGE OF CHEMISTRY NEEDED
These simple 10-minute do-it-yourself
tests cost less than 20c each, tell right
away what kinds of fertilizer and liow
much each field needs for top yield.
Expensive nitrogen, also manure and
cover crops, may be wasted if you don’t
have enough phosphate. Most soils need
more. You'll always know how much
nitrogen, phosphate, potash and lime
to feed your soil for bumper crops.

�FULL STANDS

YIELD MORE
FEED

ields are just as important to a livestock
feeder as to a grain farmer. The extra
yield that results from a little extra effort can
be the difference between a prpfit and a loss
on the stock in your lots.
!

Y

Joseph Faivre has found that fields planted

to full capacity not only yield better, but
control weeds and hold down evaporation.

Two health tonics
for spring chickens

Skimping on seed at planting is about as
practical as taking long steps to save your
shoes. Seed makes up only 3% to 5% of your
crop costs. By spending a little extra for seed
of the right variety and planting enough to
get a full stand, you can boost yields by 15%
to 30%.
Making those figures a little more meaning­
ful, let’s say you have 100 acres of com and
it costs you $2 an acre for the extra seed
needed to plant the soil to its full capacity.
If you get a 15 bushel increase per acre
(studies show that’s easily possible with high
plant populations), the extra com on the 100
acres would add up to $1,500 on $1 com.

Just how thick should you plant com ?
Since experience is the best teacher, Farm
and Home Section put that question to some
top farmers around the Midwest. Here’s what
they told us:

ru—r

■

-WITH ANT1-GCRM

As farmers and experts at the Com-Soy­
bean Clinics pointed out during winter meet­
ings, you have to go through the same motions for a big yield as a small one—plowing,
planting, cultivating, and harvesting—so you
might just as well plant thick and aim for all
you can get.

Sayes Sa/iy Chicks

“I make a point of planting all the com
my ground can handle,” says Bob Gabeline,
Louisa County, Iowa. “I planted 22,500 ker­
nels per acre last year, and aimed for a final
stand of 21,000 plants.” He’s experimented
with several different populations, and feels
21,000 is best for his soil.

CHAS PFIZER 4 CO.. INC.

from

“If I can average 140 bushels on all my
com ground, I’m pretty satisfied,” Gabeline
states matter-of-factly. “If I don’t reach that,
I’m a little disappointed. And if I can get
more, I’ll take it!” He fell just short of his
goal last year, with a 135 bushel average on
595 acres.
Another farmer-feeder who squeezes out
every last bushel his soil is capable of yield­
ing is Melvin Nefstead, Kings, Illinois. “I
kept running small test plots each year, and
kept increasing my population until I got it
so high that I got some barren stalks. I’ve
found that a stand of around 20,000 plants
per acre is best for my soil.”

Then Nefstead makes a good point: “I
think every farmer has tc feel out his own soil
to see what population is best. You just can’t
pick a population that someone else found
best. Soils differ from farm to farm, and in
my own case, they often differ from field to
field.”

Science lor the world's well-being*

Nefstead has apparently hit the right for­
mula for his soil — he harvested over 80,000

�bushels from his 800 acres of com land last
year. With better rainfall, he might have
reached 100,000.
Despite dry conditions in his part of the
country, Clarence W. James, Pennville, Indi­
ana, averaged 135 bushels per acre on his
thickly planted com ground. James put down
20,000 plants per acre, and plans to go higher
this year. He feels he hasn’t reached the sat­
uration point yet

Another farmer who’s pushing populations
up is Joseph Faivre, DeKalb, Illinois. He
planted at different ■ populations to suit the
fertility of his various fields, ranging from
19,000 to as high as 24,000 plants per acre.
As a result, he averaged better than 110
bushels on his 300 acres of com land last
year.
All three of these fanners point out the
importance of supplying plenty of fertilizer
to support the heavy seeding rates. They treat
their soil like a spoiled child — anything it
wants, it gets. Soil tests are used extensively.

You Can Have
More Yields With
Soybeans Too

BRAND

Varieties

For soybeans, Narrower rows are helping
soybean growers to increase populations per
acre, and are resulting in substantially higher
yields. Most soybean growers agree that there’s
as much or more reason to plant soybeans in
narrow rows than there is to plant com in

One grower who has evidence of that fact
is Otto “Spike” Geriets, Petersburg, Illinois.
“I tried some 30-inch com rows last year,
and while I had the narrow row planter I
decided to try narrow rows on half of my soy­
beans, too. The soybean yields were even
more impressive than the com — I got 45
bushels per acre on the narrow rows com­
pared to 37 bushels on the regular rows. This
year I’m planting all of my soybeans in 30inch rows.’’

Colleges support Genets' results: “Row
"widths of 20 to 24 inches will yield about
15% more than rows of 40 to 42 inches,” re­
ports C. R. Weber, of Iowa State University.
“Regardless of row width, however, you
should plant good germinating, inoculated
seed at 12 beans per foot of row,” he ad­
vises.

It’s logical. The more grain you grow,
the more hogs you can feed out. So be
“hoggish” when it comes to com yields.
Plant modern DeKalb Brand XL
Hybrid Varieties. They’re bred for more
tolerance to disease and insects. Bred
for thick planting and high fertility.
Bred to stand ... to shell out bigger
yields of plump, energy-rich grain. Plant
all DeKalb Brand Breakthru and
XL Com Varieties.

For either com or beans, there are some ob­
vious advantages of thicker planting that some
farmers never think of. Faivre points out
several: “Weeds aren’t nearly as big a prob­
lem in heavy populations. They need sun to
do well, and once thick crops get past waist
high, weeds see about as much sun as a coal

“DEKALB" is a Registered
Brand Name. "XL" is a
variety designation.

MORE FARMERS PLANT DEKALB THAN ANY OTHER BRAHD

The economics of high population makes
good sense: The extra seed per acre to plant
24-inch rows may cost $2 to $3 — but a 15%
yield increase can return $10 to $11 worth of
extra soybeans.
,
4 Contrary to the popular belief that ferti­
lizer doesn’t pay on soybean ground, some
growers who insure high fertility with special
applications are getting up to 8 bushels more
per acre. They report that bean plants are 5
to 6 inches higher on fertilized acres — al­
lowing more space for bean pods to form.

This field sign identifies e
wise choice in seed com.

Planting to

best hybrids
for your farm
can mean
an extra 15

feed per acre.

�eeds eat profits. Get rid of them
before they start to grow with one
pre-emergence application of Amiben
when you plant. If you use top man­
agement. how many beans you take
off at harvest depends upon how good
your weed control is from the start.

W

One application of Amiben when you
plant kills most annual broadleaf
weeds and grasses —keeps fields
clean until harvest. This means there
is no weed competition for nutrients,
moisture and light throughout the
growing season — no delays at har­
vest, waiting for weeds to freeze off
—or shattering losses from having
to hit bean plants hard with the com­
bine reel. You get lower moisture
beans —higher quality beans, and
more of ’em. And they return more
profit to your pocket.

WEED CONTROL

Amiben is clean, easy to handle,
leaves no residue in the soil. It costs
just $3.34 per acre banded at the
2 lb. rate recommended for most
soils—returns many times its value in
extra bushels harvested when good
soybean management practices are
followed.

Firemen fail fo
save farmhouse
Despite the efforts of the Ver­
montville volunteer fire depart­
ment, assisted by Charlotte and
Nashville, a two_and a half
story brick farmhome located
at 6413 Vermontville highway
three miles east of Vermont ville burned to the ground Thurs
day evening about 6:30 pm.
The property is owned by
Roe Stevens or Evanston, HL,
and Mt. and Mrs. Arthur Shetenhelm and son, Tim, and Mrs.
Helen Cross and her two chil­
dren were occupying the resi­
dence. Mrs. Cross is the daugh­
ter of Mrs. Shetenhelm by a for­
mer marriage.
The fire started apparently
from a defective chimney and
the entire upstairs area was in
flames by the time the V e r montville fire department ar­
rived on the scene. A strong
wind fanned the flames ano the
firemen worked hard to protect
the nearby buildings. Practi­

cally none of the furniture and
clotning was salvaged. A quan­
tity of maple syrup made by the
Shetenhelms was removed from
a back room. A number of an­
tiques were also destroyed in
the fire.
The loss of the building which
had been a landmark for near­
ly 100 years, was estimated by
Vermontville firemen to run
more than $20,000.

Kee p gutters clear
Jim Erwin, Nashville Super­
intendent of Public Works, has
requested that villagers do not
throw trash in the gutters. Er­
win said the trash m the gutters
impairs drainage and hampers
cleaning operations.

THE PRESIDENT SAYS

Council favors building code
For the past two yean I have
attempted to keep the residents
of this community informed as
to what has been happening in
the village council meetings.
I have enjoyed doing it for two
reasons, primarily because you
as taxpayers have a right t o
know what was going on, and
because l felt we have moved
forward in making Nashville a
better place in which to live.
However, this will be my last
menage as your village presi­
dent. as the new officers have
been sworn in. Jim Rizor is go­
ing to make a very fine presi­
dent, and Henry Fedewa will be
working with the "holdovers",
Frank Scramlin, Loren Noddins,
Harold Norris and Mike Appelman.
Thursday evening the council
went on record as favoring a
motion to adopt a zoning and
building code for the viiiMge,
Setting up such a code is going
to necessitate considerable time
and study, but the committee

By GLADYS MILLER

from the Chamber of Com merce has a good start and
within the next few months the
work should be completed.
A contract between the
Micro Midget Racing associ­
ation and the village for one
year was approved. The village
is to receive 15 percent of the
proceeds and there is to be no
expenditure of money whatso­
ever as far as the village is
concerned.
Thursday was the day set for
the hearing of any objection
to the resolution vacating Pearl
street in the south end of the
village. Noone put in an ap­
pearance to object, and the
council voted to vacate and
abandon this area in favor of
Burdette R. and Margaret Cuyler.
In addition to routine busi­
ness the council listened to
protests voiced by Mrs. Bob
Shapley and Sam Goszulakand
the Rev. Earl Frost discussed a
few details concerned with the
Fuller Heights building project

which is progressing nicely.
Through the cooperation of
the Chamber of Commerce and
the Maple Valley school dis­
trict, some playground equip­
ment was made available that
had been in use at the Norton
school south of town. This will
be set up in Putnam park. A
couple of basketball hoops are
being put up on the old ball
diamond in the tennis court
area for the youngsters to use.

..These were donated by some of
our citizens.
And before "signing off may
I express my heartfelt thanks
to my council for the planter
given me Thursday evening,
to John and Amy Boughton for
being so generous in giving me
space for my coverage of the
council meetings, and to all of
you who have bees-w under­
standing during my two years in
office.

Special day set

Those persons who have not as
yet signed up for Medicare will

things calmed down enoughthat
Bob could push me and help me
get started.
When 1 processed the pic­
tures I found that I had missed
every real picture I attempted
to take but I wound up with
some beautiful abstracts which
I am going to take to art class.
All is not lost.
While we are in this depart­
ment, I must continue with a
story I started some weeks ago.
If you were paying attention,
you will remember that I told
about a lady I know who has a
high class cat. As a matter of
fact this cat is so high class that
the kinens of this particular
breed sell easily for $65 each
and there is no trouble getting
takers at this rate.
I saw this lady the other night
and she told me that her cat
had kittens. Upon hearing this
news the old dollar signs start­
ed to go through my head.

LIFE'S LIKE THAT DEPART­
MENT....
The other night I went out to
take pictures of the fire at the
Shetenhelm house over on the
other side of Vermontville. I
took two girls along with me
and left them in the car with
instructions not to get out o/ the
car. While I was gone taking
the pictures they turned the heat­
er"motor on, thinking they were
getting heat out of it.
In the meantime, back at the
burning house, I started shooting
pictures like mad. But
the
sound of the shutter let me
know something was definitely
wrong with the camera.
After a half-hour or so of try­
ing to get a picture I went back
to the car, knowing that the
dam camera was on the fritz.
Back at the car I discovered
that the heater motor had run
down the battery to the point
where my car wouldn't start. So
the girls and I had to sit in the

JUST WHAT YOUR CAR

NEEDS MOST RIGHT NOW
We'll give your cor the lift it
needs for peak performance.

The joker in this though,
that her cat had only two kit­
tens. Give-away kittens (and
that is not easy) come in
bunches or batched of at least
six. Sixty-five buck each kit­
tens seem to come in batches
of two.
■
Maybe that is what makes
them high-class.

My friend Foltz who runs the
Lake-O Wave started over to
see me Sunday night and hit a
deer on the way. He said that
two of them jumped in front of
his car and that he missed the
doe but got the other one.
That seems to be the only
way a printer can get a buck
these days.

I have a little release on
my desk which says that des­
pite the griping we do about the
nigh cost of living, we seem to
be living better and on less,
than we ever have before.
This thing says that last year
Americans spent something like
18. 5 percent of their take nome
pay for food. In 1912 they spent
40 percent for food. In England
29 percent is spent on food
while in France it is 31 percent.
In Russia the average is some­
thing around 53 percent. So we •
are not so bad off as we think.
Right along with that is the
statistic that Americans work
something like two bouts and
twenty minutes every eight
hour day just to meet their fed­
eral, state and local taxes.

This same little publication
says that nothing in current
national developments indi­
cates quite so clearly what is
happening in the natural wil­
derness in the United States as
the complete reversal of our
programs to eradicate varments.
Coyotes, wolves and mountain
lions, which once had no
friends to speak of among men,
today have champions every­
where, even in Congress,. The
day of deliberately killing var­
ments is about at an end. Civzation is doing that by it­
self, just taking care of modern
man.

backstreet barometer
Ron Kenyon and I were talk­
ing the other day and he came
up with the idea that 1 should
write an editorial or something
about the dogs running around
town.
About this time every spring
the dogs start running.
That
. just seems to be a part of spring.
Anyway as Ron and 1 were
talking I explained to him that
I thought it would do little good’
to write anything in the paper
about the dogs because the peo­
ple-who allowed their dogs to
run probably wouldn't pay any
attention to it anyway.
Ron then came up with an ob­
servation that makes some sense.
He said that perhaps it would be
best to put something in the pa­
per directed to the does and not
to the owners. He said the dogs
often know more than the own­
ers do.
I concur.........

So...........
NOTICE TO DOGS... Do not
run away from home... Stay in

your own yards.... And while
I am at it. Don’t chase cars or

" I have been to your house many
times. "
"You have? I don't seem to
remember you. "
"NO, you wouldn't. You were
always asleep when I have been
there. My name is Easter Bundy,
but you may call me E. B. I'm
in the egg business. "
’’Oh yes, now I know you.
How is business?"
’’Well, things at the
egg
plant are going well. That is,
they were going well when I
left. I am the egg-head you
know, and I have to oversee all
ring of eggs
of the coloring
eggs. I a m
never sure but what they
are
goofing off when I am not right
there to keep them on the ball,
or the egg. "
"Well, what is new in the egg
business?"
"Just because I have a mon­
oply on the Easter Egg business,
does not mean that we can just
sit back and rest on our laurels.
We are always trying to improve
the product and service. Right
now we are working on a system
to cut our egg coloring and hid­
ing time right in half. We mix
up food coloring and then make
a giant omelet with the coloring
in it.
The giant omelet can then be
left at the home instead of hid­
ing individual eggs. We did run
into a bit of a problem though.
We left one in the middle of a
living room floor where it would
be sure to be seen, at one of our
test houses. It didn't work out
just as we thought it would
though. The lady of the house
got up before the kids did, saw
that omelet on the rug and im­
mediately spanked the family
pup. We don't want to be to
blame for such things happening
to an innocent party, so we are
discontinuing that line. One of
our vice-presidents is now work­
ing on an idea to color an os­
trich egg that will replace at
least a cozen of the regular ones.
"Well, I have to get back to
the egg plant. See you around. "
With a wave of his paw he
hopped into a taxi and was gone.

Dear John,
The article about myself in

wish to clarify myself somewhat.

He sought retribution in the

It took a jury of four men and
two women over an hour to
reach a verdict, and 1 later was
told by a member of the court,
that what beat me was the fact
I removed my jacket when e­
merging from the car, making
it a premeditated act.
So you see the verdict may
have gone either way and e x cept for minutia, it was not open

We have tuch a drug
April is Cancer Control Month by Presidential proclamation. Dur­
ing this month the American Cancer Society is seeking funds for
important programs of research, education and service. It is also
seeking something even more important for the immediate present-to communicate.
It would be just as appropriate to designate April as Cancer Com­
munication Month. Wuy? As a distinguished health officer said
recently: " If someone invented a drug that would cure half of the
present cases of cancer, the excitement would be beyond belief.
We have such a drug: It is communication."
An estimated one-half of all cases of cancer could be cured by
finding them soon enough and "doing for them what we already
know now to do. " However, only one-third is being saved, largely
because the individual does not go to his doctor in time for early
diagnosis.
Tne problem of eliminating the gap between one-third and onehalf--of adding 95,000 lives to the 190,000 now saved each year-is difficult. It is a problem of communication and motivation. Too
often we are unable to persuade people to act in their own health
interest --to present themselves in. time for early diagnosis and
treatment of cancer. At minimum, this means a health checkup
at least once a year.
Starting April 13 in Barry County, volunteers of the American
Cancer Society will be calling on you. They will ask for funds to
support life-saving programs in cancer controL They will urge you
to have a health checkup now - - if you have not already had one-and to do so every year.
We urge you to do both.

Tour group to
visit the Rhine
Tour members participating
in the Nashville News May 5
trip to Europe will experience a
sense of history as they glide
past the castles on the Rhine. It
may be a corny way of putting
it, out the Rhine settled in pre­
historic times, and derives
'
much of its alure from being
very much "lived in. " One sen­
ses a wisdom of time as
one
floats past the hills rounded soft
by nature.
On one peak may be seen an
austere, early medieval castle;
at the wooded foot of another
may be a rococo remnant of the
roaring 20's; at the bank near a
bend stands a 13-story contri­
bution of avant-garde architec­
ture; and then, perhaps, the
Rhine steamer will be the 49
billionth boat in the history of
time to glide under a Roman
aqueduct.
The mere name of the Rhine
crops up in our culture as for
example: Rhine maidens, Rhine
wine, Rhineland, Schuman's
Rhenish Symphony, Wagner's
Rehingold, the word rhinestone
and of course the Lorelei. These
words connote a most diverse
assortment of things and pro­
ducts; music, wine, jewels,
mythology and industry.
The Lorelei Reck from which
the Rhine sirens sang their songs
to lure sailors to their watery
graves still stands. It is a beau­
tiful promontory jutting out in­
to swirling currents at a sharp
river bend and its success with
visitors is proven by the fact
that it is pictured in almost
every tourist brochure.
The castles of the Rhine de­
liver us to the pages of the
storybooks we read when we
were ten; those wondrous tales
about the black knight,
the
impregnable castles and those
unbreakable swords. The moat­
ed castles like the Schwanenburg near Cleve and hillside
castles like that of Heidelberg,
the chateaux of Hugenpoet near
Kettwig in the Ruhr valley, are
but a few of the scores upon
scores of the grim beauties left
us by the dark and gray ages.
Many of these castles have
been turned into hotels or
youth hosuils which offer the
visitor an opportunity for a
completely rnenish vacation.
Camping, hiking and walking
are very popular pastimes all
over Europe, but nowhere are
there more participants than in
Germany. Indeed, leder hosen,
the German leather britches,
are synonymous vf1th hiking.
Walks through the age-mellow­
ed woods surrounding the hill­
side castles on the banks of die
Rhine is an experience no tour­
ist will ever forget.
The most popular stretch of

the Rhine which " News" mem­
bers will visit is between Mainz
and Kiblenz. It is between
these two points that the Rhine
is at its narrowest and that the
castles may most easily
be
viewed. RT members will take
a Rhine steamer which is known
for its excellent cuisine and
merry dance orchestra.
Among the cities on the
Rhine are Rotterdam in Hol­
land, Cologne with its fabu­
lous cathedral, Beethoven's
birthplace and the capitaLBonn,
Koblenz, Mainz, Worms, Man­
heim, Ludwigshaven all in Ger­
many and Basel in Switzerland.

union service.
Both the Rev. Leonard Maun­
der and Rev. Warren Jackson will
assist with the program.
There will be Maundy Thurs­
day services at 8 pm in each of
the churches with the pastors in
charge.

MINDING MINDS
Growth of and demand for
mental health services in Mich­
igan continue at an annually in­
creasing rate, with no peak in
sight.
A two-year study of activities
by the State Mental Health De­
partment shows sharp increases
in all areas. A 23 per cent in­
crease was recorded during the
past two years in the number of
people served by the depart­
ment's various unis.
Last fiscal year count was
79,067 people involved in some
facet of mental health care un­
der the department's jurisdiction.

Increases in mentally ill and
retarded contacts were 4,500 in
1965 over the previous year and
8, 500 more than the 1963 count.
A sharp proportion of this re­
sulted from the relatively new
community care programs. More
than 22, 800 people were served
in community-based state pro­
grams or jointly funded local
clinics and day care centers.
The department also measures
its growth in other terms. It
recorded payments of $2.7 mil­
lion in 1965 for patients from
various special programs such
as social security, railroad re­
tirement and Veterans Adminis­
tration. In 1964, these receipts
totaled $1. 8 million.
About half of these special
benefit funds are for personal
needs of the patients: clothing,
candy, dentures, wheel chairs,
etc.

A third measure of growth of
what might be called mental
health consciousness is found in
the second edition of the "Dir­
ectory of Michigan's Psychiatric
Services, " a publication of the
Michigan Society for Mental
Health.
Where the first edition, pubblished in 1960, listed 61 agen­
cies, the new volume lists 116
agencies which provide 180 dif­
ferent services.
Included is a completely new
category, listing 22 community
general hospitals offering psy­
chiatric services. Six years ago
these were practically non-exis­
tent except in the Detroit me­
tropolitan area.

CHANGE CONSIDERED
A "Claim to Fame” has been
made on behalf of the 1963 State
Constitution by Claud R. Erick­
son of Lansing, who served as
a delegate to the 1961-62 Cons­
titutional Convention.
He notes the new document
has remained intact without
amendment longer than the Cons­
titution it replaced. It seems
the 1908 basic law went into
effect in 1909 and was amended
a year later and again in 1911.
Longevity of the present Cons­
titution may be short despite
Erickson's present claim. The
Legislature has before it several
proposals for amendment and
present indications are that at
least one or two will be put to
the voters in November.

Serious consideration is being
given a proposal to once again
allow the Governor to fill judi- i
cial vacancies by appointment.
The provision calling for use of
retired judges in vacant bench
posts has proved unworkable. The
vacancies are in much greater
supply than the retired jurists.
A change in the voting age
requirement, from 21 to 18, was
expected to get full debate mis

year also. This may be out of
the picture now since a statewide
survey has shown the greatest
percentage of teenagers polled
do not favor the change.
Makeup of the State Appor­
tionment Commission and selec­
tion of the Highway Commission­
er are other areas which would
be affected by still other Consti­
tutional amendment proposals
before the 1966 Legislature.

BREATHING SPELL

Elementary school enrollments
statewide have for the past three
years been experiencing the start
of a decade of a slump although
it has not been apparent in most
districts.
The slump is caused by the
decreased birth rates in Michigan.
Low rates are expected to contin­
ue for another two years. After
that the rise is due to duplicate
the monumental World War II
baby boom.
Most school districts have not
shown the relative drop, however,
largely because of the shifting
population trend. Urban cores
nave continued to face school
enrollment pressures. Only a few
schools in the large cities nave
experienced drops in class size
because of shifting population.

Growth and development of
suburban areas has been almost
unbelievable. School problems
in these areas have just begun in
this eight year period of low
birth rates, for the most part. As
the children of this low cycle
reach school age the suburban
district problems will become
greater.
It can be readily seen why the
low birth rates have not had the
effect which might be expected:
a levelling off ot ichool district
problems and pressures. Only if
Michigan's .school-age population
was evenly distributed would this
be seen.
By 1968 the experts say the
World War II babies Trill behav-ing their own children en masse.
Needless to say, the financial
problems caused by this spurt
will be tremendous when these
children reach school age.

Mrs. Laurent is
Dr. James Muldoon, a mem­
ber of the staff of the FergusonDroste-Ferguson hospital of
Grand Rapids, is to be the fea­
tured speaker at the Barry County
Cancer Crusade kick-off on
April 13, according to an an- ■
nouncement by Mrs. Robert El­
liget, crusade chairman for
1966. The kick-off is to be
held at the Episcopal parish
house in Hastings at 7:30 p. m.
The public is invited to attend.
All volunteer solicitors are
urged to attend. There will be
many questions answered and
some vital facts concerning can­
cer research presented.
Dr. Muldoon, who has been
speaking for the American Can­
cer Society for a number of years,
will be accompanied by another
staff member, Dr. Thomas Hud­
son. Dr. Hudson is to have,
charge of the showing of a film,
"Life Story ", the true story of
union leader Harry Leonard who
was saved by a proctoscopic
examination of cancer.
The local chairman for the
1966 Crusade is Mrs. Harry Laur­
ent.
Following is a list of the so­
licitors and their areas.
Main, north of bridge and
territory west, Mrs. Earl Miller.

This year's goal for Barry
County is $7, 299. 74. The
money collected goes toward
helping any Barry County cancer
patient on transportation costs
to a hospital for treatment, drugs
authorized by a doctor, dressings,
and hospital equipment, as well

as furnishing films and literature
for educating the public on rec­
ognizing the danger signals of
cancer and learning about pre­
ventive treatment. A certain
portion of the money is sent to
the University of Michigan for
all-important research.
A 1963 report from the state
cancer society showed that
Barry County deaths due to can­
cer, for that year, numbered
49. Of these, 26 were men,
and 21 were women. According
to statistics, early diagnosis of
cancer now helps to save one
out of three people. This year's
objective is to save half of those
who are afflicted by cancer.
The success of the cancer
society program is largely de­
pendent upon volunteer helpers.

This is especially true during
a crusade. Mrs. Elliget has been
contacting people to act as
township chairmen, and says
there are still several township
chairmanships to be filled. Any­
one wishing to help may get in

touch with Mrs. Elliget by call­
ing 945-9354.
The Castleton Township chair­
man is Mrs. Walter Neff. The
Maple Grove Township chair­
man is Mrs. Harold Starring.

finding new com growing tools is shown by progress made in the
past ten years. During this time, average com yields zoomed 57%
and labor requirements plunged. 47% — a 200% gain in bushels
per man-hours per acre.
This kind of progress wouldn’t have been possible without
modem soil insecticides. In short, they’ve wiped out the waste
that early com growers just accepted from insect-damaged plants.
Even the American Indians had a saying when they grew com:
“One for the bug, one for the crow, one to rot, and two to grow.”
Today’s crop growers don’t have to stand back and accept in­
sect losses. They can make a blanket application with a modem
insecticide, and be fully assured that they’ll get all the yield they
have coming to them, no matter what kind of insects try to make
pests of themselves.
•y
It doesn’t pay to try to guess which soil insect might invade
your com. The odds are up to 20 bushels to 1 that you can’t. Soil
insects — more than 20 different kinds — work under ground
where they can’t be seen. And with all the different kinds threat­
ening, some will be working no matter what the conditions.
That’s why today’s top profit fanners apply a soil insect “in­
surance plan.” The cost? Less than $3.00 per acre. The return?
An average of an extra 10 bushels per acre. And, when soil in­
sect damage is severe, it can mean a difference of 30 to 40 bushels
an acre, or saving an entire crop which would otherwise be lost.
Every-year applications are routine for farmers out after every
bushel. Their extra com profits over the years have convinced
them that insecticides pay year in and year out Leading Combelt
researchers, too, have demonstrated in their extensive tests that
soil insecticides are a good investment. Here’s a sample of how
they sum up soil insecticide benefits:

Illinois: “. . .-Results from five years of testing show controlling
soil insects boosts yields an average of 10% . . .”

Purdue: “. . . Many Indiana farmers wonder whether to use soil
insecticides on com land. However, yield increases average 5
bushels an acre when insecticide is appled in the row and 10
bushels an acre when broadcast . . .’’
Missouri: “. . . Several species cause damage to underground
parts of com plants. The use of a long residual soil insecticide
prevents most injury from these insects . . .”
Tallying up all com production costs and balancing them witli
yields points out the critical profit factor when growing com —
the more bushels produced per acre, the less you have invested
per bushel.

�E BUG BATTLE
Here’s how per-acre cost of insecticide protection
' figures out:
----General soil insecticide recommendations call for
1 to 2 lbs. of Aldrin per acre. That’s $1.40 to $2.80
per acre for insecticide to protect a $60 to $70 per
acre investment.
If com yields 100 bushels per acre without in­
secticide, and 110 bushels with* insecticide, that’s a
10% yield increase and a return of $10 per acre
for each $1.40 to $2.80 invested in Aldrin. That’s
a healthy return on investment — and considering
the many kinds of insects that can wipe out an en­
tire crop — mighty cheap com insect insurance.
Assuming a 10 bushel increase in yield by using
t Aldrin, or ALDREX (a-new combination granule
of Aldrin and an organic phosphate which effec­
tively controls all soil insects, including resistant
rootworms), the chart below shows you can pay
off equipment cost — plus insecticide cost — in one
year and still have a profit left over. That’s the
reason profit-minded farmers don’t gamble.
Some com growers just don’t realize how much
insect control can do for yields. Take, for example,
the experiences of Harold Gardner, Cameron, Illi­
nois :
•
“I was doing everything else I knew how to boost
yields, but I never really broke loose until I used an
insecticide last year.” Gardner used Aldrin to con­
trol cutworms and rootworms, and averaged a rec­
, ord-breaking 170 bushels of No. 2 com on 870
acres, all of which was in narrow rows.
“I’d estimate that the Aldrin alone boosted my
yields 30 bushels an acre. Given a choice between
Aldrin and fertilizer on some of my land, I think
I’d have to pick Aldrin.”
Harry Broermann, Tarkio, Missouri, had a simi­
lar experience last year. The photo with this story
shows the difference in height of his ALDREX
treated com as opposed to his untreated com.
It’s interesting to note tne weed growth in the
untreated area of Broermann’s com, as compared
to the treated area. Of course, ALDREX is not

here’s a feeling of SPRING in the air! And what is more
appropriate than a spring salad survey.
Attractive greens are one of the keys to salad success. Be
certain they are clean, dry, crisp and chilled. Try endive,
romaine or red cabbage for a change of pace. And don’t
forget to choose the dressing as carefully as the salad in­
gredients. Use a tart French dressing for a tossed green
salad, for example. And serve a sweetened mayonnaise or
poppy seed dressing with a fruit salad combination.

Remember our Convict-Author Pete 87776 Simone? It has been many
months since we last published an article by this writer who is
currently serving "time" at the prison in Jackson, Michigan.
In this issue of Farm and Home Section, Pete writes for us of an
interview he conducted at the Michigan prison. Pete calls this
short, but true story - "The Voice From the Barrel."
You readers might be interested in knowing that the convict
involved in "The Voice From the Barrel" was a next door neigh­
bor of Pete Simone's in prison. When "Toughie" was released, Pete
asked him if he had had his fill of prison; if he would be back.

Toughie shrugged, "I ain't going to the old man's farm.

am the voice. And I never speak, except in
warning. Yet you ignore me. Maybe you just
can’t hear my low, hollow, inhuman monotone.
Anyway, my eerie voice quality can’t be helped
because I speak from deep in the barrel, of a
gun ...
Despite a cloudbank in the northwest, it’s a cry­
stal night; so calm and clear and extremely cold
that it threatens to shatter of its own fragility. Un­
fortunately, the night isn’t alone on the brink of
cracking up. The toughie who awaits you is far
from shatterproof. Yet he’s solidly determined to
get his hands on your money ... even if he must
take your life first
Fresh from reformatory walls, and flat broke,
he lurks in the shadows just beyond the side park­
ing area of Lakeshore Clinic, the small but mod­
em medical center near the limits of your farm
country town. He’d shoplifted his weapons. One
is a toy pistol; the other (in case the toy bluff fiz­
zles) , a deer knife with a deadly blade.
. The moon keeps him edgy. It has needled him
since nightfall, its full face brightly defiant, daring
him to proced as planned in the absence of abso­
lute darkness. He harbors no desire to do you in,
however ... not that he’s overly concerned about
anybody else’s life. But he knows that killing gen­
erates heat of all kinds—including that which is
cabled to electric chairs. Therefore, you’ll escape
great bodily harm ... if everything goes his way.
Why you—? He’d been shoplifting his weapons
in the local hardware store when you cashed that
big milk check, and overheard you tell the hard­
ware man that you had an 8:45 dental appoint­
ment at Lakeshore . . .
Blast that moon! With his fat local and State
Police files, he couldn’t afford to let you see his
face. So he tries again to wish that cloudbank over
the town. But it just loafs there; low, dark, unco­
operative. Now he re-checks the time: 9:31.
What’rc you gonna do, keep him waitin’ all night?
That’d be just his luck, starved as he is.
It’s tough to be hungry, with goodies almost
everywhere and not a penny in your pocket! His
reformatory release money—?A honkytonk juke­
box and cash register ate that up in nothing flat,
on his first afternoon out He’d tried to sell his
watch. No deal. Home—? Yes, this 19-year-oid
had one. But it was in the sticks; on a dairy farm.
And his old man was queer for four-square ideas
—like able young fellers should work for their

He moves furtively, clinging to shadows. He
makes it; twists a handle. Lady Luck! He ducks
inside and closes the door almost soundlessly . ..
and just in time.

Footsteps. Tingling to the sound, he takes the
toy in one hand, the knife in the other. He’d wait
until you got in. And then—
The sound stops abruptly. Then he hears you
hot-footing it away. Now he lies here cursing;
wondering why you retraced your steps. He waits
and he waits. Seconds tick into agonizingly inter­
minable minutes. Finally he tenses, then falls
apart with the shakes.

He’s calling you all the names in the reforma­
tory book as flash-floods of light swamp your car;
as a door is yanked open ; as he squints up into the
big black eye of a .38 Police Special...

Now, as the cops shove him into the patrol car
and prepare to chauffeur him away to warmth
and food and smokes and sleep, he’s compelled to
laugh at you. You’re actually feeling sorry for
him! He can see this in your face; that your mind
is so preoccupied with pity that it prevents your
realizing how lucky you are that the cloud bank
had remained uncooperative; that he possessed
no real gun; that the vapor patch on a window
clued you that someone was in your car . ..
He isn’t in the least surprised when you look in
on him at die lockup; to get the cigarettes you
sent in; to hear you offer him another chance,
and to help him find a job!

“Thanks, pops,” he says. “For the smokes, I
mean. But don’t go feedin’ me no rehabilitation

that jazz already, an’ flunked out So go on home,

You look so mortified that he’s forced to laugh

taunts:
“Maybe we’U meet again, pops. On some nice
dark night If we do, depend on it, pops. Next
time, I’U be sharp enough to handle the situation!
But what about you—?”

Then, all the way home and far into the night,
I, the voice from die barrel, keep trying to con­
vince you that this clean-cut kid isn’t aft bluff;
that there just might be a “next time” So, “what
about you—?” If he or any other thug ever point
a gun and demands your money or your lift, will
you be “sharp enough” to remember which of the
two is replaceable ... and then react accordingly?

the program committee has se­
lected Mr. Ray Hawkins and Mrs.
Mildred Allen as Citizens of the
Year for 1966.
This award marks the first of
its kind to be presented with
hopes it will continue as a tra-

The reason oehind the award is
to pay tribute to the civicminded people in the commun­
ity who give us the fine exam­
ple to follow that is needed to
keep small towns working to­
gether for the betterment of all
who live in the community.
Mr. McGregor felt it would be
erroneous to itemize all the or­
ganizations, committees, com­
munity work, or the spirit of
teamwork these two fine people
main
streets for any period of time
can't help hear or observe tire

results of the efforts of these two
people have contributed to the
town.
Mr. Hawkins and Mrs. Allen
will have the privilege of chap­
eroning the 1966 Maple Syrup
Festival Queen, Miss Delores
Green, on the festival day.
They will also be accompaning the Queen and her court to

book is kept in the public li­
brary for anyone who would

At this time not only the FesFes­
tival Committee, but the whole
community of Vermontville
would like to give a much need­
ed Thanks to Mr. Ray Hawkins

1966 Citizens erf the Year.

ckstreel barometer
Our six-year-old wrote a let­
ter to the Easter Bunny in which
she as|&lt;ed for a swing set and a
xylopkK&gt;ne on Easter. Somehow
she got the idea that it was
like Christmas. She gave the
letter to Amy who had it in her
purse when she went it to Douse's
Drug Store. Cecil Barrett saw
the envelope and said that he
would see that it was mailed to
the Easter Bunny.
On Friday our little one got
this reply from the Bunny. I
think uiis rates with the famous
"Yes, Virginia, there is a San­
ta Claus" letter.

I'm sure old EB will not mind
if I print the letter here.

Easter, 1966
My Dear Do:
Thank you so much for your
nice letter.
Like Santa and the Good
Fairy I am a symbol of relig­
ious life and all good things
that come to little girls and
boys.
However due to the accent
on life that I portray, 1 do not
have large gifts like Santa but
only those things pertaining to
my season of the year, such as
Easter Bunnies, Easter Eggs,
Easter Flowers, Easter chicks
and don't forget the Easter Bon­
nets.
So you see Do, Easter is the
promise of a new life for all
little girls and boys who keep
sacred the story of Easter.
I believe a swing set and
larger toys are reserved for ,
Birthdays and occasions that
are planned by the family.
My very best wishes to you
and Happy Easter.
Easter Bunny.

MRS. VERN HAWBLITZ*

EDITOR
Dear John,
People keep asking about E­
dith Parks, now that she is back
in Rhodesia. A few days ago I
got the first news that has been
sent to us. Here is a part of her
letter.
"It is disgraceful that I haven't
answered your letter or sent a
note to either the (Nashville)
News or (Michigan Christian)
Advocate! All is well with me
but I'm just busy.
All is quiet here and seems
normal except for petrol (gaso­
line) rationing and that isn't as
bad as during the war. We get
all we really NEED though not
always all we’d like!
School goes on normally with
a very happy, congenial staff
(from Ireland, England, Rho­
desia, America-—white and
black, men and women.)"
Yours truly,

“The Bride of Pcndoric," by
Victoria Holt has the setting of
modern CornwalL hi many ways
it is as melodramatic as novels
of the last century. It is a spine­
chilling story of a young woman
who finds herself alone in the
world where someone is trying
to kill her. It is not a mystery
and is very good reading.
Many thanks to Mr. and M rs.

Home safety

How safe are you in your
home? Facts show that twice as
many people need a physicians
care from home accidents as
from highway accidents.
The wise homemaker will
try to recognize and correct
hazards and practices before
fire or inj tries happen.
Homes should be the founda­
tion of safeguarding human
worth. People who learn safety
at home show this attitude on
the highway as well as on their
jobs.
A checklist has been com­
piled by the Michigan State
University Cooperative Exten­
sion Service to help homemak­
ers develop a greater awareness
of approved home safety prac­
tices.
It is "Be Safe At Home"
(F-314) and is available from

the Barry County Cooperative
Extension Office, 301 S. Michi­
gan, Hastings.
Some of the safety checks
this folder suggests ace: having
a pressure relief valve on your
hot water supply system and an
insulated or plastic link in pull
cliains to electric lij-iit fixtures.
There should also t&gt;e plenty
of large ashtrays in easy reach
locations around the house.
White paint on low hanging
pipes or other bumping obstruc­

attention to them. To prevent
unnecessary falls keep scatter

This week starts the Boys Contest. Again this year we are sending
a boy from our store to California for a five-day all expense paid
trip. Last year Gary Snow from Nashville was the winner and I was
lucky enough to go along as a sponsor. Believe me, Gary and I can
both sav it was a wonderful trip and something really worth w innin;

was drawn last Tuesday night and I'm sorry to report that Nashville
didn't have a winner on that one. But Rose and I did win the IGA
tiger for selling the most IGA products in our store over some 150
other IGA stores. Sure glad you folks like IGA Brands. No--it
wasn't a real tiger, just a stuffed one.

BEER —A big boost to the economy!
The brewing industry each year contributes over
1.4 billion dollars in federal, state and local excise
taxes. Wages and salaries in the brewing industry
account for almost 500 million dollars, and the
purchase of packaging materials from other in­
dustries runs over 550 million. So next time you
enjoy a cool, refreshing brew after hard work or
play, remember—BEER is good in more ways
than one!

er car traveling on Highway 109
collided at the intersection. Both
Diana and Mr. Lane were pro­

tion at the Toledo hospitaL
Diana, the daughter of Ber­
nard and Betty (Stewart) Garvey,

tle Creek. She was graduated

Lions observe
White Cane Week
This year White Cane Week
will be observed in Michigan
from April 24th through April
30th.
The Nashville Lions Club and
over 400 other Lions Clubs
throughout Michigan will team
together during this one wee!’
which is set aside to acquaint
the public with State Laws which
have been adopted for the pro­
tection of the blind.
Local elementary schools, dri­
vers license bureaus, and police
departments will assist in this
educational effort by distribu­
ting leaflets furnished by the
Lions of Michigan in coopera­
tion with our local Lions Club.
The White Cane calls for
thoughtfulness, friendly appre­
ciation and a personal respon­
sibility for the safety of the in­
dividual carrying it. Thousands
of White Canes have been fur­
nished free of charge to blind
people throughout the state. It
is the aim and plan of the Lions
to provide every blind person
with a White Cane - the symbol
of blindness - as a measure of
protection for him.
State Legislation in 1936 in­
cluded an ordinance granting the
right of way to a person carrying
a White Cane. The purpose of
White Cane Week is primarily
an educational one - working
toward that day when all our
citizens will know and recog­
nize the White Cane as the sym­
bol of blindness and will give
understanding and courteous as­
sistance to bearers of the White

Cane whenever such opportuni­
ties present themselves.
The White Cane is the traffic
symbol of the Blind.
Nashville Lions will sell canes
in Nashville during this week.

Firemen play their hoses on the home of Mrs. George Thomason, three miles easr of Nashville as
flames caused an estimated $5.000 damage to the structure. The estimate was made by Vermont­
ville Fire Chief Dale Briggs. Units of the Nashville Fire Department also answered the alarm, at a­
bout noon Friday. The blaze was believed to have originated in the electrical wiring. The home was
uninsured.

to go through a whole series of

find my medical report. Years
later, when I was getting out of
the Army one of the personnel
jokers found the other record in
my file. It was behind some
other papers in the file.
I also remember be ing in
Georgia at Christmas time. I
was in an Army school and the
authorities, issued an ultimatum
that there would be no passes
over Christmas. Anyone who
left town over Christmas would
be subject to disciplinary action,
the mildest of which would be

sun with honey on your body so
the red ants could get at you.
That was for first offenders, if

IT’S ALMOST "BUG EAT BUG” in the latest attempt to control
the cereal leaf beetle in Michigan and adjoining states. Michigan
State University scientists are rearing this tiny European wasp to
work on beetle eggs. The parasitic wasps, about 1/32 of an inch
long, penetrate the beetle egg (above) and lay their eggs inside.
The wasp larvae grow, develop and consume the beetle egg,
destroying it. The wasps will be released in southwestern Michigan
this spring to determine their effectiveness. The beetle, first
identified on this continent near Niles, Michigan in 1962, has
spread into Indiana. Illinois, Ohio and Canada. Entomologists say
if it ever gets to the spring wheat growing area of the U. S. it
could spell disaster. Even now it is costing farmers in infested
areas high dollar crop losses.

THE OTHER FOOT
Cycles of activity can be seen
in several facets of state govern­
ment. The ups and downs of eco­
nomic activity have produced
fairly regular peaks and dips in
the state's financial stability o­
ver the past 20 years or so.
A new cycle may now be re­
curring in the fielo of political
activity. G. Mennon Williams
started one cyclical change in
1948 when he was elected gov­
ernor against tremendous odds.As the terms he served added
up, Republicans began to have
difficulty finding people to
place on the ticket against this
seemingly unbeatable incum­
bent. Now the Democrats have
to attempt to change the cycle
but they are encountering the
same difficulty in finding a win­
ner.

When Williams decided not to
run in 1960 the GOP had great
hopes of changing the cycle,
but Williams popularity helped
his protege, John B. Swainson,
get elected.
Two years later, Swainson
had had time to make a few
mistakes on his own. All during
that term the Republican mas­
ter-minds were searching for a
candidate to go against Swain­
son on his own record. Forward
came present Gov. George Rom­
ney, a winner in his every ef­
fort, it seemed.
Now going into the end of
his second term, Romney looms
as unbeatable as Williams dur­
ing his long tenure.
So the Democrats have been
searching for a giant-killer. Un­
fortunately for the Democrats,
there are few party vote-getters
who view Romney as beatable
as the Republicans appraised
Swainson in 1962. There has
not been a winner willing to
come forward.

iPublicly, each of the popular,
known office-holders have saia
Romney can be defeated. They
just are happy with their pres­
ent posts and wish to remain
there.
Privately, most of those who
became dropouts will admit
Romney is still too popular for
them to risk defeat.
The only one apparently
willing to try, Party Chairman
Zolton A. Ferency, met with
little enthusiasm for his can­
didacy back last summer when
he first made his interest
known in small circles.
Asjthe party's official hat­
chet man, the chairmanship
usually doesn't lend itself to
candidacy. When the proven
vote getters suited backing
out, however, more and more
party people surted looking to
Ferency as a man who has had

some successes in chipping away
at the golden image of the pres­
ent chief executive.

MANY .DBS
High school and college grad­
uates going into the labor force
this year should find good oppor­
tunities awaiting them.
One indicator, state civil ser­
vice employment, will have
the welcome mat out for these
newcomers even more unusuaL
This area of job potential has
traditionally been viewed as a
fertile field for youth just com­
pleting school
The good times which have
opened new jobs in private in­
dustry have proved somewhat of
a headache to the state civil
service operation. It has been
considerably harder to fill eVen
the normal amount of vacancies
occurring in a given year.
This problem has been mag­
nified considerably because
many sute employees left the
service in the past year for other
jobs in private enterprise. Turn­
over in 1965 reached 16. 3 per
cent as compared to about 10
per cent each of the past sever­
al years.
The 1965 figure represents
more than 5, 500 people.
Of
course this includes some losses
for retirements, deaths and oth­
er causes for leaving the labor
force.
The greatest portion of the
loss, however, was to other job
opportunities despite an average
six per cent pay hike due sute
workers this July.

Almost all the familiar names
are on the ballot this fall in the
non-partisan judicial races be­
cause of a change in the Con­
stitution.
The 1963 Constitution pro­
vides that incumbent judges can
gain ballot placement simply by
riling a form indicating the de­
sire. Previously a judge was re­
quired to file petitions each
time he sought a new term.
With the filing deadline still
some time away, all the judges
in the sute circuits whose terms
expire this year and are legally
eligible to run are doing so.
Some are ineligible because
they will reach the mandatory
retirement age of 70 this year.
Non-incumbents must still
get on the ballot via nomina­
ting petitions or a filing fee so
most of these candidates will
not be known until closer to the
deadline.
The change in the nomina­
ting procedure for incumbent
judges was seen mainly as a
way to keep judges out of par­
tisan political activity after
they were once nominated and
elected.

Fellowship Day meeting
at Nashville church
United Church Women are is­
suing an invitation to all the
communities in Barry County to
attend their May Fellowship Day
Friday, May 6. This is a county­
wide interdenominational ob­
servance. It will be held this
year in Nashville at the Evanelical United Brethren Church,
eginning with a cooperative
luncheon at 12:30 pm in the
downstairs dining room. The
1:30 pm program in the sanct­
uary is open to the public.
The meeting is sponsored by
a women's group, but the pro­
gram will be pertinent to men

g

especially. There will be a nur­
sery for tne care of small chil­
dren.
The topic for the day will be
"The Other Side of the Coin"*
with the Rev. Charles Gibbs as
speaker and moderator of a pan­
el discussion. He plans to point
out the dangers inherent in the
present-day effort to bring more
legalized gambling into Michi­
gan. Church members should
wake up to this very current con­
cern, and all are invited to at­
tend this discussion by Mrsjames
Smith, May Fellowship Day
chairman.

More than 1,150 square miles
or about 735, 000 acres, in All­
egan, Barry, Berrien, Cass,
Eaton, Ionia, Kent, Ottawa, St.
Joseph, and Van Buren Counties
will be aerilly treated this
' spring, Some of the area may
receive a second treatment de­
pending on cereal leaf beetle
development and weather con­
ditions.
The purpose of the treatment
will be suppression of the cereal
leaf beetle (Oulema melanopa)
which first put in an appearance
in North America in Berrien
County, Michigan, in 1962.
M ensuring only about an eighth
of au inch long and dark bluishgreen in color, the cereal leaf
beetle is the greatest known des­
troyer of growing cereal grains.
It feeds on oats, barley, rye,
wheat, and some kinds of grass­
es. The beetle somewhat resem­
bles the common asparagus bee­
tle. In Europe, where it has been
known for more than half a cen­
tury, the cereal leaf beetle has
nearly destroyed crops of grains
in some years.
Aerial treatment will be con­
ducted from about April 25 to
May 15 depending on weather
ana other conditions. Since aer­
ial treatment can be effective
only in winds of low velocity,
planes will not fly when it is
windy. Frequently, favorable
weather conditions prevail just
after dawn. Flights continue dur­
ing the day as long as wind vel­
ocity permits or ft is not raining
Malathion will be the pesti­
cide used to destroy the emeratdult beetles that overwin­
litter. Malathion was se­
lected because of its low toxic­
ity to humans, birds, mammals,
and even fish at the low rate of
application in the program.
Only four ounces or technical
malathion per acre will be ap­

plied, 20 per cent less than was
applied during the 1965 treat­
ment program. Use of mala­
thion in the program has been
approved.

Malathion has proven most ef­
fective in killing cereal leaf
beetle in the adult stage, a 1 though the residue is short-lived.
The effectiveness of the small
amount of this low toxic mater­
ial used in the cereal leaf bee­
tle suppression program is a
sharp contrast to what was used
a quarter century of more ago.
At one time (in the 1930's) the
accepted pesticide for some
pests was arsenate of lead at the
rate of a Half Ton or more per
acre. Four ounces of technical
malathion per acre seems small
in comparison.
Estimated to be more than 90
per cent effective against over­
wintering adult cereal leaf bee­
tles, malathion, as used in the
program, is shown to be safe for
birds, animals, and humans.

Born near Vermontville, Mr.
Hawkins has spent much of his
life in this area. For 30 years
he worked at the Motor Wheel
corporation in Lansing, and
during that time he figures he
drove enough miles to take him
around the world 22 times. In
1912 he was married to Hattie
Bale. They lived 11 years on a
farm, then moved to Lansing.
In the business slack in 1931 he
started driving back to Vermon­
tville to help with haying and
harvesting, and it was then he
it if he could drive
decided
one way to work he could drive
the other, so the family moved
back to their farm. In 1944
they moved into Vermontville
village, and he continued to
commute to Lansing until he
retired in January, 1954.

Mr. Hawkins has served two
terms on the village council,
two terms on the Vermontville
township board, and has served
as treasurer of the Vermontville
Maple Syrup Festival corpora­
tion since 1958.

Mr. Hawkins has written Ver­
montville News items for the
Charlotte weekly since he was
17 years old. He also takes sub­
scriptions for all Eaton county
publications, several from
Barry and Ionia counties, and
a number of daily papers along
with all leading magazines. It
is with these commissions that
he finances his trips to deliver
magazines.

shall, Okemos and Jackson to
deliver magazines, eye glasses
and other gifts. He is usually
accompanied on these trips by

operation of Vermontville resi­
dents who save their magazines
and other articles which Mr.
Hawkins picks up or they are
left on the porch at the Hawkins

VOLUME 93

Negotiations contract
is big step forward
The board of education,
teachers, and school adminis­
tration of the Maple Valley
Schools reached complete a­
greement Tuesday, April 5, on
matters pertaining to teacher­
school-community relation­
ships and signed a three year a­
greement covering the same.
This action is pursuant to Act
379 of the Michigan Public
Acts of 1965, to bargain with
the representatives of the teach­
ing personnel with respect to
hours, wages, terms and con­
ditions of employment.

This is a great step forward
in the fast-changing education­
al area and should help pro­
mote better educational oppor­
tunity for all the children in
the school district, which is the
goal for which we are striving.
The Maple Valley District is
one of the first in the state to
arrive at complete agreement
on such a contract. Numerous
meetings were held in develop­
ing this contract which
con­
tains policies related to salary
contracts and schedules, sick
leave benefits, teacher rights,

School election
Monday, June 13
The annual school election
will be held on Monday, June
13, 1966 with the election of
two members to the Board of
Education and the voting on ex­
tra operational millage.
The terms of John Viele and
Christopher King expire on
June 30. Both incumbents have
announced that they will be
candidates for re-election.
Nomination petitions are a­
vailable at the office of the
superintendent of schools. AU
petitions must be filed with the
secretary of the Board of Edu­
cation by 4:00 pm on Saturday,
May 14, 1966. Each petition
must be signed by a minimum
of twenty qualified electors of
the school district.
The Board of Education has
not set the amount of mills as
yet to be voted at the June e­
lection. This wiU be set at the
regular board meeting on May
9. The present extra voted five
mills expired with the Decem­
ber 1965 levy. This had been
voted for three years at the
special election held on May
13, 1963 at which time the

bond issue for the new school
buildings was also approved.
The board of education is hope­
ful that a large of enough in­
crease in state aid will be pass­
ed by the state legislature en­
abling the district to ask for a
renewal of the expired extra
voted millage without any in­
crease.

teaching hours, teaching loads
and assignments, teaching con­
ditions, method of handling
promotions, transfer of teach­
ers, leaves of absence, teach­
er evaluation, negotiation pro­
cedures, and professional griev­
ance procedure.
A new teachers’salary sched­
ule was adopted for the 1966­
67 school year, and teacher
salaries will be negotiated on
a yearly basis. The new salary
schedule will place the school
district in a much more com­
petitive position in employing
new teachers and retaining ex­
perienced teachers in the
school system. The new sched­
ule for a teacher holding a BS
degree begins at $5500 with a
maximum of $7000 in nine
years. Teachers with the MA
degree will start at $5800 with
a maximum of $7300 in nine
years.
Work is continuing regarding
a teacher handbook of policies,
and it is planned that this will
be completed before the end
of this school year. We now
have a structure around which
to stait-and guide lines estab­
lished.

THE NEWS, Nashville, Michigan. Thursday. April 28. 1966

backstreet
We went up to Charlevoix for
a short weekend. Left on Friday
night and came back on Satur­
day night. All in all it was an
| enjoyable trip, though I did
pick up a ticket on the way.
I This is beside the point though.
The point is that I used this
short vacation to do some interviewing to keep you folks in­
formed...
Knowing that trout season is
coming up soon. I decided to go
right to the ones involved most
...
did
to get the
information.
Charlevoix is loaded
w ith
trout fishermen and they are all
willing to talk about trout fish­
ing. As a matter of fact, I
talked to some of the fishermen
to get information for you. I
came up with some measure­
ments of a number of beautiful
fish that got away in the past.
Many of the fishermen were
more than willing to talk about
the nut way some other fisher­
men go about it.
When 1 got right down to the
fine points of the game though,
the fishermen give out very lit­
tle in the way of useful infor­
mation. They are willing to tell
a person the day on which they
got a big one, nut they hold any
further information as classified.
"Just where did you catch this
big fish?" I asked a fellow who
had just told me about a mon­
ster he had landed some time
before.
■
I

"Just say somewhere in M ichigan." he answered.
"That isn't very helpful.Can't
you give me a more exact lo­
cation’"
"And have the place overrun
by a bunch of slobs sloshing a round in the water and throwing
" their old beer cans all over?
This is a beautiful sylvan spot
and there is hardly enough room
t^e.r? f°r mX
beer cans.
c,an 1°“.tell me how you
““gjlHbis fish. 1 asked. What
you use for bait?
"I used a fly that I tied my­
self. I'm soriy I can't tell you
what the fly looks like. This is
my own little secret. I wouldn't
want all of those city slobs to
learn the secret. They would
take advantage of the poor trout?
"Tell me then," 1 said, "when
is the best time to go trout fish­
ing?"
’’Well, that all depends,
some like to go early and some
late. Some think it is best to
fish in the rain, others like the
bright sunshine. I try to keep
the exact time of day and the
weather conditions under which
I catch fish secret. This keeps
the slobs from finding out about

I

"

"You have been very helpful,
sir, I thank you for your infor­
mation. Now can you tell me
when the season opens?"
"Yeah, Saturday. ”
I immediately went down to

The Nashville News
NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN
Published weekly by Nashville Publications, Inc.
Entered at the Post Office at Nashville, Michigan
Baity County, as Second Class Matter

a trout stream where 1 could get
an interview from the other side
&lt;rf the fence, so to speak.
1 stuck my head under water
and looked around. Almost im­
mediately. two fish came
swimming by and I spoke to
them.
"How-do-you-do? I m a rer&gt;ner for a large newspaperand
would like to ask a few ques­
tions. Do you mind?"
"Hump. Mabie, " the one fish
said to the other, "These mash­
ers sure have some pretty
strange stories that they use
when they try to pick a girl up."
"Really," 1 said, "1 just want
to ask a few questions. Now you
both look like pretty good sized
ones to me. Just what are your
measurements?"
"What did I tell you, Mabie?
A masher. I should hit him on
the head with my new sharkskin
purse. "
"No. wait, Tootsie. Can’t
you see he has a camera with
him? Maybe he is from Playboy
magazine and he just wants the
measurements because he wants
to run our pictures in the cen­
ter fold out. "
"If he aims that camera at
me he will get it smashed right
over his head. He wouldn't dare
take a picture of me with a run
in my nylons and my hair up in
curlers. 6
I thought that perhaps if I of­
fered them a tid-bit they would
be more inclined to talk, so I
dangled a worm in the water for
them.
"Eek, Mabie a worm, 1 can't
stand the wiggly things. "
"Neither can I. ”
They both took off screaming
something about the type of
person who would attempt to
scare two innocent young girls
with a worm.

ALL THEY HAD
By A Friend
Georgie Norton, little and old,
So determined to the end
To live true to her heart of gold,
To feed whatever needed a
friend.
Lonely boys, away from home,
Knew "Ma Norton" would not
forget;
They and their wives now have
come
When her earthly sun had set.
Many the children overseas,
Wore clothes she gathered and
sent.
Many the creatures, needing
ease.
Loved the sheltering hand she
lent.
Lewis and Georgie gave so much
And the "Lord knows each
spanow's fall".
They gave with each friendly
touch-And at the end they gave their
all.
Lewis gave, for doctors to learn,
The earthly shell he left;
Each tear, with each forcep's
turn,
Left her heart still more bereft.
Lewis gave his flesh-.
Georgia gave her grief-Good deeds in Heaven will live;
Little and old-With hearts of gold-They gave all they had to give.

Barnei-Maion
MRS. FRED GARROW

How much money
should I take?
How much extra cash to take on'my trip to Europe?

"News" members will be asking themselves this question, and be­
cause no’two people's spending patterns arealike, it isalwaysa diff­
icult one to answer. The May 5 Caravan Tour is pretty all- inclusive
with just a couple of exceptions. Lunches and dinners in London. Paris,
and Rome are not included. This adds up to a total of six lunches
and six dinners, and it is suggested that one carry about $60 per
person as an allowance for this item. /Il tips are included and the
only other items to be considered are the morning and afternoon
coffee breaks and shopping money. Coffee is fairly expensive in
Europe, and many tour members cut costs by ordering tea or a glass
of the inexpensive local wine.
Postcards and stamps, if bought in quantity, can be a cost factora color post card and air mail stamp to the United States usually to■ tals about 20$. This amount can be cut down by sending the card
sea mail instead of air mail which delays the delivery by about two
weeks.
European shops are tempting and travelers will find it difficult to
resist their wares. Travelers in France will be granted a 15-20^discount if payment is made in travel cheques. If payment is in dol1 lars, the discount is not given. It is still recommended that the
' bulk of money be carried in travel cheques with 10 and 20 denom­
inations being the most popular. About 25 one dollar bills come
in handy for the last day in a country when one may want to pur­
chase some small item and not want to have a lot of local currency
left over. Any left-over currency can always be converted to the
currency of the next country on the itinerary, but one always loses
a little on the exchange, so travelers try to come out as even a s
I possible.
.
?
Members will want to be prepared for the increasingly popular
I form of revenue at the expense of the tourist- - the airport tax In
J spite of the ill will it creates, some countries still persist in taxing
I the tourist for using the local airport facilities, and "News" tour
members should be prepared for a $2 tax on departing the London
airport and an exorbitant $5 on leaving Paris.
"News" tour members will have the opportunity of shopping at
■ three duty-free airports--London, Amsterdam, and Paris with Am­
sterdam generally offering the greatest selection of goods. Local
handcrafts are not a particularly good buy at the duty free ports-only those items that would normally be subject to duty such as
cameras, cigarettes, liquor, perfume, cutlery and binoculars, tc
name a few. As many may have read, the customs regulations have
been changed, and one can now bring back $100 worth of goods
duty-free, based on retail value, and instead of one gallon of li­
quor, only one quart is duty-free, and it must accompany the
traveler who must be 21 or older. One can still send home duty­
free gift packages which do not count in the $100 allowance and
which are not declared, providing the value of each package does
not exceed $10 and providing they are addressed to someone other
than one's self and not more than one arrive to the same person on
the same day.
Best buys on the "News" tour route by country are: Austria, knit­
wear, petit point, leather goods, antiques, crystal, jewelry, hunt­
ing, fishing and skiing equipment.-Belgium: lace, linenwear, jewI elry, rifles, shot guns and fine cutlery. France: clothes from the
!' great designers, Paris hats, lingerie, blouses, gloves, laces, china,
cognac and champagne, perfumes, handbags, umbrellas, Hermes
engagement anu address books for men. Germany: leather goods of
i alfkinds, photographic articles optlcai goods, uuifta, ceramics,
&gt; jewelry, wood carvings, clocks, toys and watches. Great Britain:
j Scotch tweed suits, camels hair coats, woolen. Burberry raincoats,
' sweaters, socks and scarves in cashmere, fine umbrellas. Italy:
i tortoise shell, amber, cameos, silver, handbags, men's ties, Flor­
' entine leather, straw and embroidery, Borsalino hats, Italian silks,
custom made shirts, rosaries and crosses, knitwear. Netherlands:
silverware, china, chocolates, diamonds, cigars, cheese.

White Cane. Week
This year White Cane Week
will be observed in Michigan
from April 24th through April
30th.
The NashviUe Lions Club and
over 400 other Lions Clubs
throughout Michigan will team
together during this one week
which is set aside to acquaint
the public with State Laws which
have been adopted for the pro­
tection of the blind.
Local elementary schools, dri­
vers license bureaus, and police
departments will assist in this
educational effort by distribu­
ting leaflets furnished by the
Lions of Michigan in coopera­
tion with our iocal Lions Club.
The White Cane calls for
thoughtfulness, friendly appre­
ciation and a personal respon­
sibility for the safety of the in­
dividual carrying it. Thousands
of White Canes have been fur­
nished free of charge to blind
people throughout the state. It
is the aim and plan of the Lions
to provide every blind person
with a White Cane - the symbol
of blindness - as a measure of
protection for him.
State Legislation in 1936 in­
cluded an ordinance granting the
right of way to a person carrying
a White Cane. The purpose of
White Cane Week is primarily
an educational one - working
■
toward that day when all our -citizens
--------------­
wiU t™,.,
know .-a
and ----recog
nize the White Cane as the sym­
bol of blindness and wiU give
understanding and courteous as­
sistance to bearers of the White
Cane whenever such opportuni­
ties present themselves.

If anyone is interested in .
chopping wood or eating pan­
cakes then be sure to attend the
26th Maple Syrup Festival be­
ing staged in Vermontville Sat­
urday, April 30.
Both of these crowd-partici­
pation events will take place
and it's fun for both the parti­
cipants and those who "only
stand and watch. "
The wood chopping contest
is to determine who can chop
through a six-inch log in the
shortest period of time. While
the men are usually the ones to
participate there have been
years when the women also got
into the act—and they can

throw plenty of weight around.
An axe will be furnished by the
festival committee, or if one
prefers, he may bring his own.
The wood chopping contest
will take place in front pf the
grandstand on Main street at 4
pm.
The pancake derby will fol­
low. This contest required two
persons--a man and woman act­
ing as a team. The woman
must mix the batter and bake
three pancakes. Then she runs
with the pancakes to the oppo­
site end of the derby course and
the partner eats them, using
all the Vermontville-made ma-

pie syrup and butter he desires.
The team finishing first is the
winner.
There are plenty of prizes
for both events. First prize is
$5. 00; second prize is $3. 00
and third prize is $1. 00. But
everyone entering the contest
wins something, as the mer­
chants provide generous prizes
in merchandise for those not
collecting cash awards.
Burr Hartenburg is chairman
for these events, so be sure to
register with him, or one may
stop at the grandstand forcomplete details and to sign
up
there.

Monday, June 13
The annual school election
will be held on Monday, June
13, 1966 with the election of
two members to the Board of
Education and the voting on ex­
tra operational millage.
The terms of John Viele and
Christopher Zing expire on
June 30. Both incumbents have
announced that they will be
candidates for re-election.
Nomination petitions are a­
vailable at the office of the
superintendent of schools. All
petitions must be filed with the
secretary of the Board of Edu­
cation by 4;00 pm on Saturday,
May 14, 1966. Each petition
must be signed by a minimum
of twenty qualified electors of

not set the amount of mills as
yet to be voted at the June electlon. This will be set at the
regular board meeting on May
9. The present extra voted five
mills expired with the Decem­
ber 1965 levy. This had been
voted for three years at the
special election held on May
13. 1963 at which time the
bond issue for the new school
buildings was also approved.
The board of education is hope­

abling the district to ask for a
renewal of the expired extra
voted millage without any in­
crease.

Many attractions at Fuller Carnival
A final meeting for the pur­

Wednesday, April 27. All the
committee chairmen attended
and reported that all systems
are go. This means but one
thing--Nashville is in for a­
nother gala evening, bigger and
better than last year.
A few of the same features as
last year are the tootsie pop
tree, shoot the teacher booth,
white elephant booth, ring toss,
cake walk, and the spook house.
The latter under new manage­
ment this year and while it may
not be bigger and better than
last year--it will be different.

This year those attending may
buy their evening meal right
"on the grounds. This issomething new.

There will be an air rifle raf­
fle, a door prize and a guessing
game.
A new innovation this year is
that the Bank Night winner will
be announced at the school,
simultaneously with the an­
nouncement downtown.
So do save Friday May 6th for
a family night of fun at the Ful­

Well, another Syrup Festival
is over the dam, as it were, and
the ones who seemed to get the
biggest kick out of it are the
kids, the dogs and the politi­
cians. All three groups were
represented by large and noisy .
majorities.
Another one who seemea to be
having fun is the guy who flew
the helicopter. Just one look at
his maneuver which included
going up, around and backward
at the same time convinced me
that such rides are just not for
me. Earl Gehman can tell you
that even in a regular plane,
doing nothing more than cir­
cling the school I can get a
beautiful color of green.
The politicians were the ones
who really made hay during the
brief periods when the sun shone
though. Ex-Govemor Williams
was there bright and early, looking just the same as he looked
the last time be came to the
Festival years ago. He shook
every hand there. Most of the
folks had shaken hands with Mr.
Williams before, but that was
long ago and another campaign
is coming up.
The man with the chopper
continued to fly over the town
This made it difficult to hear

the speech. As Mr. Williams
said though, "those copters
seem to Be here to stay. ”
In all fairness to the guy with
the helicopter, he was just try- '
ing to earn a buck, and he
seemed to be doing rather well
at it.
Governor Romney showed us
how be gets so much economy
in the government. He eats pan­
cakes tor lunch. He seemed to
enjoy them too. When be fin­
ished his first plate full be jump­
ed up and ran oack to the end
of the line to wait, for seconds.
This despite the fact that the
women were going wild trying
to get to him with seconds as
soon as he finished his firsts.

I understand that Katherine
King had a lot to do with in­
fluencing the governor's decis­
ion to come to Vermontville.
The kids ail ate too much cot­
ton candy. hotdogsand snow
cones and they tried too hard to
make those cages go over, but
then the Festival comes only
once a year.
The dogs were in about the
same boat as the kids. They all
by the kids.
All in all it seems to have
been a successful Festival

May we introduce you to Sally and Jack Midwest Probably you know them

already, since they live just down the road or across the street.
The Midwests are average or typical people as determined by severe*
recent surveys. We present them to you now in some detail, and we suspec*
that you will find the experience is like looking in a mirror

- L

Sally and Jack live on a 303-acre farm with a total value of $40,000
Population studies show that the Midwests have one and one-fourth children,
but Sally and Jack decided they did not want any fractional children so
they have two
The Miowesis nave a lot or neignoors. Tnere are over live minion people

living on midwestern farms, and another ten million live in rural areat
but do not farm. Of these neighbors, six and one-half million are under 2C
years of age. There are also more than one and one-half million people
over 65 living on farms and in rural non-farm areas.
The increasing level of education is reflected with the Midwests. Sally has
10.8 years of schooling, and Jack has 10.3 years.

Their family income varies, depending on where they live. Farm income
on a recent year in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa and Missouri was $8,413.
In North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska and Kansas it was $3,947,
and in Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin it was $3,348.
The Midwests subscribe to six magazines, have two radios and television.
They take a daily newspaper and also the local weekly. Last year they spent
$280 on food and tobacco, $340 on clothing, and another $210 on household
items.

Since food is a major item of expense, we shall tag along with
Sally Midwest as she makes a grocery shopping trip. As with more than half
——51 per cent—nf her neighbors, Sally shops on Friday. There are times,
of course, when she also joins the 41 per cent who shop on Saturday.
The shopping trip is a weekly affair for Sally, as it is with about 60
per cent of the rural-farm women.

Sally goes to the supermarket, telling us that she selects a grocery store
for its large and complete selection of groceries and secondly because of
lower prices. Some 37 per cent of Sally’s neighbors say that they buy most
of their groceries at a small local grocery, and another 19 per cent buy
theirs at a general store.
Jack shops with Sally 19 per cent of the time, and does the grocery
buying alone 15 per cept of the time.

Yeast is an important item on Sally’s shopping list, because like
more than 80 per cent of the rural-farm women, Sally bakes her own bread.
Sally also bakes pies and cakes, using a cake mix about three-fourths
of the time.

She also does some food canning at home, as do 75 per cent of the
farm women, and 35 per cent of the urban women.

The mechanization of rural life is reflected in Sally’s house as well as
in Jack’s machine shed. She has a food mixer, refrigerator, food freezer,
toaster, coffeemaker, electric frypan, washer and dryer, and a deep-fat fryer.

And now we’ll let Sally and Jack get back to work, because even with
all the mechanical help, there is always more work to be done.
Yes indeed, it’s just like looking in a mirror, isn't it?

for the birds
A worm a day may keep the doctor away for birds. But, when it comes
to small dogs, puppies and kittens, worms are strictly for the birds.
To eliminate roundworms (Ascarids) and hookworms in small puppies,
small dogs (toy breeds) and cats, get Pfizer’s Globe NBC Capsules.
Especially formulated for small pets, NBC Capsules bring quick, safe,
effective relief. In fact, results are often obtained in just one hour.
And NBC Capsules are so easy to administer. Just place required
dosage on back of tongue and rub pet’s throat. Next time your dog or
cat is bothered by irritating worms, get NBC Capsules in the handy
plastic dispenser. They’ll send your dog or cats’ worms flying.
The Pfizer’s Globe family of fine pet products includes: Pet Wormer • Dog

Art exhibit urged for Michigan Week

1

A request has come to
the
News office urging local artists
to make plans for some type of
an art exhibit locally during
Michigan Week.
This request has come from
W. Lowell Treaster, Chairman
of the Michigan Week Fine Arts
Committee.
In part, Mr. Treaster's letter
stated: "The Fine Arts Commit­
tee of the Michigan Week Cultural Activities Board is con­
tinually expanding its program
directed toward the recognition
and encouragement of our fine
Michigan artists."
In past years, various local art­
ists have exhibited works in the

local store windows and other
places in the community.
These artists who wish to uke
part in such an exhibit are en­
couraged to contact Mrs. John
Boughton at the News office so
such a display could be planned
for Michigan Week. Such con­
us should be make by Friday,
May 13 if possible as Michigan
Week begins May 15 and runs
through the 21st.
W ith as many artistically tal­
ented people as Nashville and
the surrounding areas has, some­
thing should certainly be plan­
ned along this line, In coopera­
tion with the Michigan Week re­
quest.

Home ran hitters line up here! Dwayne Shipman, Dick Steward, and Steve Stein hit a total of
five home runs in last week’s game. Chipman and Steward each hit two and Stein hit one.

LETTER
TO THE
EDITOR
To the Editor;
In regard to a series of meetings held in our school auditorium
last week.
I will call it, not a religious service but a combination of lies,
half-truths and distorted facts, directed at the faith of a segment
of our community.
'
In regards to the authorities who permitted the use of a public
facility for such tripe it is my opinion that if they have the neces sary intelligence to properly conduct the affairs int .listed to them,
then they are guilty of betraying the trust.
As to the sponsors:
In my whole life, I think it was the most flagrant violation of
Christian ethics it has ever been my misfortune to witness.
If this is their brand of Christianity, I am more than ever proud
of mine.
'
I am also grateful that I do not have to look to anyone of them
for spiritual guidance.
If any of the above mentioned parties think I am wrong, I here­
by extend to them a cordial invitation to come to my home, singly
or in a group, to defend their actions; or I hereby accept an invi­
tation to meet them at the place of their choice.
Respectfully,
Raymond A. Howenstein

BOMBERS TO BLITZ BEETLES: This converted Navy TBM torpedo
bomber was the first plane in action in the 1966 battle against the

an hour, it treated 7,400 acres south of Watervliet, Michigan, in
about two hours.
Four planes like this are now in action, operating out of Allegan
airport, according to the Michigan Department of Agriculture. Co­
operating with the US Department of Agriculture, the Michigan agenev is engaged in treating 750, 000 acres in southwestern Michi­

Counties being treated are: Allegan, Barry, Berrien, Cass, Eaton,

Five Maple Valley teachers attend Social Studies meeting
The Michigan Council
of
Social Studies met at South­
field High School on April 23,
1966.
Those attending from the
Maple Valley Schools were Mrs.
Flrster. Mrs. Baas, Mrs. Kalnbach. Mrs. Reed and Mrs. Engles.
The Social Studies group was
welcomed by the Southfield
Superintendent of Schools.
If anyone is interested in a
Mastefs Ln any field of Social ’
Studies there is a new Federal
grant of $2400 plus $400 for
each dependent Write Dr.Stanley Dimond, U of M, Ann Ar­
bor.
The forenoon keynote speak­
er was Dr. Gross, Stanford Uni­
versity, and Pres. Elect for the
NCSS. The NCSS now numbers

58,000 members in all but 6
status. Dr. Gross listed three
areas of controversy in the so­
cial studies field.
Dr. Gross suggested we
change our World History course
to one on Asia or Africa or
both. He feels a one year
World History course is very un­
satisfactory. If we have World
History let’s divide it into an­
cient world for a cultural back­
ground and modem world for
special emphasis on the devel­
oping countries.
Every social study class
should be flexible and allow
for open mindedness. Dr.Gross
said if the teachers don’t get
busy and develop new curricu­
lums the Legislature will. To
see this take place take a look

at California. Legislatureshave
an 1890 look. Do we want to
go backwards? Teacher efforts
can prevent this.
Students should not merely
accept what they read and hear.
Teach them where to find the
answers. Don’t be afraid to face
an issue. Every student in high
school should have one whole
hour during the school day to
sit in the library, relax and
read materials of his choice.
Tensions are too great on to - ■
day's high school student--out­
side school and inside. Schools
and colleges push too hard.
There are too many conflicting
ideas in the world. Teach kids
to make a decision but to have
a reason or proof. Teach them
to THINK.
Governor Williams spoke in
the afternoon on Africa.
One third of the UN are Af­
rican nations. The educated
elite are at the top. The great
mass is uneducated the un­
skilled. Health is a problem.
There are 1000 languages and
dialects. There are 33 new
countries. Number of children
in school has gone from 800, 000
ten years ago to 1, 800,000 to­
day.
One third of teachers in
Ghana and Ethiopia are peace
corpsmen.
Dr. Massialas of the U of M
spoke on "Discovery Episodes".
He fears we have depended
too much on IQ's. It has been
proven that 85-89 IQ's are
more creative. Give all a
chance to participate.
Mrs. Baas attended the sec­
tional meeting "Work of the
Michigan Civil War Centennial
Observance Commission". The

speaker'was Mr. Floyd L ilarght
Chairman of the Michigan Civ­
il War Centennial Obscrvancd*.
Commission. He is also chair­

There were many rooms in
Southfield with accordian doors.

Lancaster family serves
as student missionaries
Darrell A. Lancaster, a graduate of Nashville High School, his
wife, Alda Lee, and their four small children, have gone to the
wilds of southern Mexico to learn how to survive "on their own" in
the jungles. They presently are in the State of Chiapas in an ex­
tremely isolated area, accessible only by foot or small aircraft,
with other young recruits of Wycliffe Bible Translators, Inc.

Before Sycliffe Bible Translators send their missionaries to prim­
itive tribes in underdeveloped areas of the world, the student mis­
sionaries are put through the wringer during three months of rugged
survival tests as a jungle training camp. Here both men and women
must prove themselves able to handcraft their own jungle huts of
cane and leaves tied together by vines; make balsa rafts and handle
dugout canoes through raging rapids; cope with wild animals and
reptiles; administer first aid for everything from broken bones to
epidemics; and find their way on 26-mile hikes through unmarked
forests, living off the jungle.
Lancaster attended Grand Rapids School of Bible, Moody Evening
School and Loyola University. With experience in shipping, he ex­
pects to serve Wycliffe's New Guinea branch as buyer and shipper
for the Bible translation teams scattered throughout the area.
The Lancasters are associated with the First Baptist Church of
Nashville.

The modem approach to milk marketing was studied by nearly four dozen 4-H youngsters from
throughout Michigan Friday and Saturday (April 29-30) at the annual 4-H Milk Marketing Tour spon­
sored ny the Michigan Milk Producers Association. Among these attending were: (1-r)
MMPA President, Glenn Lake; David Sherwood, Route 4, Ionia; Robert Tronsen, Route 1, Morley;
Dale Ulrich, Route 2, Howard City; Rodney Pennock, Route 3, Nashville; Advisor, Alfred Taylor,
Route 3, Belding.
The boys were told of the procedures and facts involved in milk marketing-bargaining and put the
information into practice during discussion sessions at the MMPA headquarters in Detroit. The tour
also included a visit to a modern milk processing and packaging plant (Risdon Bros.) and a Detroit
Tiger baseball game.

Powell seeks re-election
State Representative Stanley M. Powell, Ionia Republican, an­
nounced today he would be a candidate for re-election this fall.
He will seek the Republican nomination for State Representative
in the 89th District, consisting of Ionia County, the nine Northeast
townships in Barry County, the four Southeast townships in Kent
County and the cities and villages situated therein.
Mr. Powell is 67 years of age and was for a long time a recog­
nized and respected spokesman for Michigan's major general farm
organizations, the Farm Bureau and the Grange. For many years he
served as the highly successful and effective Legislative Counsel of
Michigan Farm Bureau, and since 1932 has been a member of the
Executive Committee of the Michigan State Grange and served as
chairman of that committee for 12 years.
Mr. Powell is a recognized authority in parliamentary practice and
is thoroughly familiar with legislative rules and procedure. He
served as Representative from Ionia
ses­
inia County during the 1931-32 session and as Delegate to the Constitutional Convention in 1961- 62.
Since many of the pi &gt;blems

familiarity with this locument is very
# valuable,.

during the cunent session. He has never had an absence due to
health or personal affairs and has missed only a very few roll calls
and those were when some official duty prevented him from being

organist was Mrs. William Dean,
prayer was offered by the Rev.
Arthur Dodge, and ushers were
Mrs. Don Reed, Mrs. Earl To­

Mrs. Smith urged the audience
not to hide in the thought that
things in the world are too big
and too bad for individuals to
do anything about them.
With that thought she intro­

"The Other Side of the Coin. "
He was for eight years juvenile
officer for the probate court
in Eaton,County.
His talk concerned legalized
lotteries and he said that the
possibility of spread of legal­
ized gambling in Michigan is of
immediate concern to many.
It is Mr. Gibbs contention that
the dollar return of a state lot­
tery is far lower than the return
of regular taxes. He said that
the administration of a lottery
takes a much greater percent­
age of the gross income than
other forms of revenue.

BETTER OR WORSE?
Figures don't lie it is said, but
it has been shown time and a­

given set of figures can be found
to "prove" almost any point.
Such is the case with traffic
accident rates in Michigan. The

fic accidents in Michigan last
year with 155,258 injured and
2,120 killed.

In April when the bulk of the
1965 laws took effect, a new
labeling law was among them.
It requires the labeling with
" Keep out of the reach of chil­
dren" on many potentially haz­
ardous substances commonly
found in the home.

Included are ammonia, clean­
ing materials, flammable ma terials, polishes, paint thinners
and many other toxic substances.
Hundreds of children are kill­
ed or seriously injured each year
because of their curiosity and
the carelessness of adults in stor­
ing such items. Keeping all such
dangerous substances under lock
and key would be the best pro­
tection against injuries, of
course, but this would be diffi­
cult to legislate.

Measuring the totals against
the number of miles driven in
Michigan, however, suggests
the accident situation is not as
bad as it seems.
Official statistics in this area
of record-keeping show a death
rate of 5. 2 per 100 million ve­
hicle miles driven. This was

state parks and recreation areas,
139 state forest campgrounds,
86 national forest campgrounds,
and 60 county, township and
city parks.

Campers' tastes vary. .So do
types or sites available through­
out the state.
State parks generally offer the
most complete facilities; bath
houses, flush toilets, electricity
and concession stands. At the
other end of the convenience
scale are the state and national
forest campgrounds with pit toil­
ets, picnic tables, fireplaces,
and a water supply.

Many find camping to be the
most inexpensive form of vaca­
tion travel once the initial e­
quipment investment is made.
Some of the campgrounds in
Michigan and other states are
free. Even the most expensive
spots in Michigan involve only
a nominal fee, such as the $2
annual state park permit, plus
$1. 50 a day per campsite and
the optional 50 cents per day if
electricity is used.

Urge nomination for
citizen of county

Will present
musical program

Residents of Barry County are asked to nominate a citizen of the
county, who in their estimation has performed a volunteer civic ser­
vice of the greatest value to the community and the state. This is
a relatively new program of the Greater Michigan Foundation in
connection with Michigan Week. It leads to the selection of tenState Outstanding Volunteer Leaders for Michigan, who are honored
by the State.
Last year's ten leadership awards were presented by Gov. George
Romney at a special joint session of the Legislature on Wednesday,
March 2, 1966. The 1965 winners--four women and six men--tonored for outstanding volunteer service to their communities and state
had achieved work in interracial understanding, recreational devel­
opment, work in state and local mental health programs, commun­
ity planning and development, urban renewal and economic devel­
opment, social and religious service, child welfare, and advance­
ment of educational institutions within their community.
County winners throughout the state will be judged on a regional
level, and all the regional winners will then be submitted by July 1
to a panel of juries who will select the ten State Volunteer Leaders
of 1966.
Although the volunteer work of nominees should represent accom­
plishments which have come to fruition within the past year, often
projects of this nature are something that has been in the making
for a much longer period. Anyone wishing to suggest a name for
nomination is invited to submit it to Mrs,JeanneGould, Route #1,
Hastings, Mich. Nominations should be made in writing, and
should give a brief resume of the volunteer work for which their
nominee was chosen..
Mis. Gould would like to have all suggestions in the mail by Fri­
day. May 27.

The Choralaires of Gtand Rap­
ids, a 37 voice choir of the
Grand Rapids School of the Bi­
ble and Music, will feature
these unique presentations in a
concert at the First Baptist
Church on May 22, at 11:00 am.
An entire chapter of the Bi­
ble has been set to music by a
member of the music faculty,
Wendell K. Babcock. This ex­
tended composition follows and
includes the complete text of
I Corinthians, Chapter 13.
Another feature is a compil­
ations of the hymns of Philip
P. Bliss, outstanding gospel
hymn writer.
The program is climaxed
with a gospel song which has
been an audience favorite for a
number of years, "Oh Happy
Day."
The concluding number of
the program is sung by the group
as they walk from the platform
into the audience until they
have surrounded them entirely.
The program is free to the
public.

LETTIR
TO THt

tBITOR
TO THE EDITOR;
In regards to the letter you
published in your paper last
week, written by Mr. Howenstein.
I believe the Bible is the
word of God and our only guide
and the only rule we have to go
by. If Mr. Howenstein can
prove by the Bible that what he
saw ano heard were lies and
half-truths as he stated in his
letter, we owe him an apology;
if however, he cannot prove
by the Bible what he saw and
heard were lies and half-truths
then 1 believe he owes the
churches of Nashville a public
apology; not only the churches,
but the school board as well
I wish to take this Oppoiirtunity to thank the schoorbo;lard
for the use of the auditorium.
Thank you

OBSERVATIONS OF THE
TIME TRIALS
When I realized that two lo­
cal boys, well, at least one real
local boy and one kinda local,
were going to attempt to qual­
ify for the 500 mile race down
in Indianapolis, I got on the
stick and wrote for passes to get
into the pits to see them.
At the time I wrote for the
□asses 1 had no idea of just how
big a deal getting into the pits
At any rate, because Sam
Sessions and Gordy Johncock are
both from right around here,
they sent me two pit passes, one
for me and one for the fellow
who teaches the class m photog­
raphy which I am taking. We
picked up a motion picture pho­
tographer, who was also going'
to cover the qualifying runs
and away we went.
The trip down was pleasant,
though it was foggy and a bit
wet.
A good share of the time on
the road was spent within the
city of Indianapolis. It would
appear that the folks at the
Speedway failed to tell the
Indianapolis police that they
intended to invite 150 thousand
people into town to see the
qualification runs. As a result
of this little oversight the po­
lice force was reduced to a
bunch of nerve cases who stood
and watched as cars piled up.
As we were waiting in line
to get close to
man
heard on the radio
had taken a car into the wall
and had been sent to the hospi­
tal We learned later in the
afternoon that the man had died
in the hospital from his injuries.
We got to the speedway as
the
runs were under­
way and
trst thing I did was
to walk down the pit area lookfor Sam Sessions and Gordie
was not
there ( his car had blown
clutch) and Johncock was on the
grid ready to start his run. My
friend Loren Kent got a picture
of Johncock getting into his car
and 1 eot one of him just as he .

left the pit area going onto the
track for his run. Gordie quali­
fied and I went back to the gar­
age area to talk with Sam.
The feeling at the track is
one of alternate tension and re­
lief.
As the mechanics are getting
ready to start the car, making
little adjustments, turning
screws, testing and trying, the
driver generally stands by ver?
calmly waiting. The mechanics
seem tense ano anxious as they
prepare the car for the run. One
notices then that the excitement
of the mechanics seems to be
communicating itself to the
driver and he starts to pace a
bit.
They help the driver into his
car and start the motor. Now he
seems to be building up pressure.
The tension becomes so great
that the reporters and photog­
raphers standing around the car
feel it. Then comes the signal
for the car to go
track. The mechanics give it a
push to help it off and as the
car hits the track the entire pit
crew seems to heave a sigh of
relief.
In the garage there was no
excitement. The quiet of the
closed garage was particularly
noticeable after the noise of
tne track. Sam and his crew
were all working intently and
quietly. The car was complete­
ly torn down, so far as I could
see, but they had no doubt that
it would be repaired and back
together within a few hours.
Sam wanted to attempt
qualify last Sunday but he didn't
make it. He has another chance
at it next week end.
I was impressed with the
beauty of the cars and the din-,
ical cleanliness of the equip­
ment. The floor of the garage
where Sam's car was being re­
paired was as clean as a Dutch
Kitchen.
As we were driving back late
Saturday night in the heavy traf­
fic a cat darted out from tn
side of the road and ran into the
front wheel of the car ahead of

IT WILL PAY YOU TO GET THE FACTS ON
“WHOLE HOUSE" ELECTRIC AIR CONDITIONING
Let’s face it — more and more people are working in AIR CONDITIONED
stores, offices and factories. They eat in AIR CONDITIONED lunch roems and
restaurants. Wherever they go — doctor’s offices, barber shops, beauty shops, shop­
ping centers, theatres, motels, hotels — even the family car in many instances, have
AIR CONDITIONING.
But the home they live in. and where th^y^sixind most of their time, is about
the only place where it is not comfortable anddnviting when it’s hot and humid. Why
not bring your home up-to-date with "whole-house” central ELECTRIC AIR CON­
DITIONING?
Just set the comfort indicator at the desired temperature and your entire family
will enjoy perfect indoor comfort all during the in-between weather (hot and cool)
and the hot summer months ahead.
,
There’s a central ELECTRIC AIR CONDITIONING UNIT especially designed
to fit your home — large or small, and you’ll be surprised when you learn how easy
it is to buy and install this modern whole-house AIR CONDITIONING. See your
Electric AIR CONDITIONING Dealer or Consumers Power Comimny for full
particulars. DON’T WAIT — do it today and have your AIR CONDITIONING
installed before those uncomfortable days arrive. You’ll be glad you did.

�. Emma Grant is Michigan’s
By GLADYS MILLER

With the observance of Michi­
gan Week, a concerted effort
was made to determine Michi­
gan's oldest resident. Unless
someone has been overlooked it
appears that Mrs. Emma Grant
of 354 E. Main street. Vermont­
ville, has that distinction. Mrs.
Grant observed her 106th birth­
day last January 9.
.
Altho bedridden since a fall
last July 27, she is "very com­
fortable", according to her
daughter, Mrs. Jesse Baker who
looks after her, enjoys the cards
she receives, and occasionally
reads a newspaper.
Mrs. Grant has lived on East
Main street 54 years, and was
bom, as she puts it, "only a
stone's throw from Vermont­
ville”.
She was born Januarv 9,1860,
in Chester township, five miles
east of Vermontville, a daugh­
ter of Marcus and Lucy (Clark)
Olin. She was married to Hiram
Grant on December 3, just 86
years ago. Mr. Grand died in
1940.
Besides the daughter. Mrs.
Mary Baker with whom she
lives, she has another daughter,

Mrs. Allison (Nora) k cNabb ol
Granger Hwy. , Vermontville:
two ions. Grover, of Brown road,
Vermontville, and Lynn of
Route 2, Newaygo; three grand­
children; 11 great-grandchildren
and 13 great-great grandchil­
dren.
As a child Emma Olin atten­
ded the Olin school, a half
mile from her home. This
school later became known as
the Ames school and after the
districted consolidated with the
Vermontville Community schools
the little red brick building re­
verted to the old family farm
later purchased by Evert Steward
and the old building was used as
a tool shed.
On her wedding day the bride­
elect, Mr. Grant, and their
attendents, Miss Emma Crocker
and the bride's step-brother,
Dexter Clark, drove into Char­
lotte with a horse and buggy.
The day was beautiful, and
there was no snow, just lots of
mud nearly to the hubs. They
went to three different minis­
ter's homes before they found
anyone at home. After the
ceremony they visited friends
in Charlotte and in the mid­
afternoon they surfed out for
her parent's home through the
mud. Before they reached home

it started to sprinkle.
The couple set up hdusekeepi)ig on Brown road, northeast
of Vermontville. They had
little in the way of money, and
their household needs were of­
ten secured by bartering eggs or
other farm produce, often
quail, squirrel, wild turkeys
and geese were plentiful and
Mr. Grant shot them, along with
deer on many occasions.
The Grants made much maple
sugar much of which they sold
in Nashville and Vermontville
for five or six cents a pound.
They used to pile the "blocks”
of sugar on a wagon or sleigh to
haul it into town.
Of her life as a little girl Mrs.
Grant recalls that on a very
mild Thanksgiving day a young
fawn, chased by dogs, jumpea
through
igh their kitcher window,
the table
which
over u
‘
‘ ‘ was set
Day dinfor the Thanksgiving
„
ner, and
id finally left by the
front door which was open.
When she was 14 she spun wool
for two blankets, one of which
is still in the family. She also
used an old sewing machine
which was operated by turning
the wheel by a little handle.
This was before the foot-pedal
machines were invented.
Mr. Grant cleared 40 acres

The Prom was held Saturday
night which turned out to be a
gala event for all
Sophomores are in the process
of ordering their class rings
which they will receive next
year as juniors.
The Senior trip, although
very exciting and wonderful, re­
sulted in some awfully sleepy
Seniors.
Students are surfing their
studies for exams with gradu­
ation only 3 weeks away.

The Home and Family Living
class and the Home Economics
classes are studying childcare
and have set up a child care
program in which children be­
tween the ages of 3 and 5 come
for a couple of hours every oth­
er day. This helps the child to
mingle with others their age,
plus learning to like school

Gresham
The Gresham Mother-Daugh­
ter annual banquet was held
Wednesday evening of this week.

tee was Mrs. John Clemens and
Mrs. Evert Steward; dinner com­
mittee, Mrs. Marvin Leonard
and Mrs. Donald Hale; invoca­
tions, Mrs. Warren Jackson;special music, Mis. Max Potter;the
toast to the daughters, Mrs. Ste­
ward, and response, Miss Mar­
garet Steward. Mrs. John Clem­
ens officially welcomed the

Baptist Church
The Nashville First Baptist
church held their MotherDaughter banquet at Fuller
School May 12.
Mrs. John Harris was hostess
and Miss Agnes Campbell from

Grand Rapids School of Bible
and Music was guest speaker.
Special music was by Miss Eve­
lyn Van Engen, the Men's
quartet ana the Ladies'Choir.
The food was delicious and
plentiful and over one hundred
were present.
The Jr. -Sr. banquet for the
Baptist church was held at
Westra's Banquet Hall in Grand
Rapids. "Garden of Eden" was
the theme and Annetta Reid,
Joyce Stevens and Bruce Hig­
don did a fine job of decor­
ating. After a delicious turkey
dinner there was a special pro­
gram, picture taking and a
message from Rev. DeGroot.

Local
Mrs. A- E Halvarson is visit­
ing friends in California. She
expects to be gone three weeks.
A. E. Halvarson attended a
violin recital at Olivet College
on Thursday evening. May 12.

on their farm, and also split
the rails to drain the swamp
across the road. In time the
Grants moved their old frame
house to one side and in its
place built a new frame home,
where their son, Grover still
lives.
After 32 years on the farm the
Grants moved into Vermontville
to the Main Street address.

Mrs. Grant has always taken
an interest in community affairs,

especially the Vermontville
Maple Syrup festival. And
while she always remained in
the background, she Assisted
with church suppers by baking.
Pies were her specialty, and
she continued to do this until
just four or five years ago.
Michigan's "runner-up" age­
wise is Mrs. Anna Miller of
Hesperia, Mich., who was
born August 29, 1860, and is
Just six months younger than

I read the other day about a
man who was doing a good job
of driving his wife crazy. He
would pretend to see things and
then ask her if she didn't see
them. Of course she didn't He
would also mouth words without
really making any noise and
had her convinced that she was
having intermittent hearing dif­
ficulty. He would talk to peo­
ple who were not there and
would then express wonder that
the wife had treated the mutual
friend so coldly.

have some similar plan in mind.
She told me that she had order­
ed wall paper, and when I turn­
ed green and started to make up
a bunch of ailments that would
keep me from the task of wall
paper hanging she sweetly said,
"on, Alisande and I can do it
all alone, we don’t need help. "
* 1 got the idea that she was
working on rhe with psychology
but Pm not exactly sure how it
will come out. Not too long
ago, on a Sunday morning she
said, "you just snooze here in
bed, dear, and I'll get up and
fix you a nice breakfast which
you can eat when you get good
and ready to crawl out to the
kitchen." Nothing shakes up a
man more than that
Now she has come out with
the final bit. I am sure now,
that she is trying to drive me
out of my ever-lovin' gourd.
She went to Makers and bought
a Sonny and Chere album which
she gave to my daughters. I
have a feeling that her plan is
succeeding. _______

Somehow, she caught on to
what he was doing and drove
him a bit crazy with the large
end of a ball bat.
I wonder now, after having
read that, if my wife does not

would be geared to provide a
college education at Northern
Michigan University for youths
in very low income families.
Maximum income for a onechild family member to be
eligible for tbe program would
be S3,200 annually, with lar­
ger incomes allowedzin families
with more than one child.
Working under a grant of
about $132,000, Northern Mich­
igan officials estimated about
300 students from the U. P.
could be assisted next year.

In these income levels, there
is little doubt that few of these
youths would attend college
even if the scholastic potential
was obvious.
The plan calls for the Upper
Peninsula Community Action
Program... * "bootstrap" im­

provement group, to act as a
clearing house to find jobs and
match students to available
work.
A.similar operation has been
effective at several institutions,
perhaps the most notable being
Berea College in Kentucky.

Northern Michigan officials
have not quite gone as far as .
the Berea program, but their
aim is in the same direction.
At Berea, entirely privately
endowed, tuition is free to all.
But students must work a mini­
mum of 10 hours a week through­
out the year.
Situated deep in "poverty"
the area, Berea College was "
founded in 1855. ' About 90 per
cent of its students are from the
Appalachian mountain area cov­
ering eight Southern states. It
operates its owu hotel, a bakery,
candy kitchen, print shop and
a number of other businesses '
almost entirely with student
,
employees.

Income levels in families of
Berea College students are about
the same as will be involved
in the effort being started at
the Marquette institution.
Literature about Berea notes,
"The median family income of
Berea College students is ap­
proximately $3,200. It taken'
intitiative to aspire to a college
education under these condi tions, "
.
As in the case of the Ken­
tucky institution, Northern
Michigan will be able to take
only the cream of the high
school graduates. With present
national emphasis on helping
the poor, the culturally de­
prived, or whatever die term,
it must be assumed that this
step by a publicly-supported
Michigan university will lead
to more emphasis on providing
education regardless of finan­
cial position.

the majority legislative lead­
ers to leave tax reform off the

Major fights, wounds of which
will remain open through Novem­

Aside from these areas of dif­

that
alow
blow
Farmers got a low blow from the National Administration recently.
And we don’t deserve it. Read the facts and judge for yourself.
Late in March, the U.S. Department of Labor announced that the
Cost of Living Index had increased one half of one percent (.005).
On March 31st, President Johnson said “food prices and three
metals are responsible for 80% of inflation.” He said farm prices
must come down.
Now it is true that the retail price of food, after being stable for
years, did increase 6% during the past year-more than in any
recent year. But it was long overdue. In fact, during the past ten
years food prices have been the only item in the Cost of Living
Index that have not shown a substantial increase.

Here are the official U.S. Government figures for the past ten year
period (ending February 28, 1966):

The facts speak for themselves. Food prices and farm prices are
not responsible for inflation. Just the opposite is true. Increased
farm efficiency has kept food-prices down while other prices went
up and up. During the past ten years, in fact, low food prices have
been primarily responsible for keeping the overall cost of living
from skyrocketing-because low food prices have offset the sub­
stantial increases in other cost of living items. But this situation
cannot go on. Food prices cannot continue to bear the burden of
inflation. Thousands of farmers—caught between rising costs and
low prices-are going out of business.
«
The situation is critical. Farmers must get a fair return for their
product—a return that is in line with their costs. There is no other
way for them to stay in business. There is no other way for them
to continue to produce the food your family needs every day.

AL'S CORNER
Ran across a golf story--Mrs. Jones asked
her husband one evening, "Why don’t you
play golf with Bob Bailey any more?"
"Would you play golf with a man who
cheats--who falsifies his score and picks up
his ball when your back is turned?" her hus­
band queried.
"Of course not!" was the emphatic reply.
"Well," said Mr. Jones, "neither will Bob
Bailey."
It's getting that time of year when this
one might apply--The college youth sent a
telegram home saying, "Mom! Have failed
everything--prepare Pop". The reply came
the next day. "Pop prepared-- prepare
yourself. ”

The Maple Valley High
School Seniors are planning an
all-new approach to celebrate
their graduation.
Thu year a Senior Banquet is
replacing the regular Class
Night, Tuesday, May 31.
Those invited are seniors and
their parents, teachers and

are expected to number over
300.
Skits, music, giftatory and
prophecy will compose the eve­
ning's program. Dinner music
will be provided by Mt. Ruben

Although the Dutch elm disease has already taken a heavy
toll and no suitable cure-all has yet been found to lick it,
the American elm tree (top photo) is not about to be wiped
out in Michigan by this quiet killer. That’s the consensus
of professional foresters in the East where the disease has
been prevalent much longer than in this state. To be sure,
this battle is an expensive one. And in the use of chemical
sprayings (bottom photo), which often have serious side
effects on some wildlife, it leaves something to be desired.
Needed badly is a chemical which will effectively do the
job of controlling the disease without endangering other
values. Newer controls are being tested but, at best, they
offer only partial answers. Admittedly, foresters have a
long fight ahead of them. However, they are cautiously
optimistic that many elms will survive naturally and that at
least a portion of these prime shade trees will be with us
for a long time. --Mich. Dept, of Conservation

Eagles, hawks, and owls are protected by law in Michigan. But.. .early last winter, some­
where west of Alpena, someone pointed a shotgun at a bald eagle and pulled the trigger.
Pictured here is the eagle he killed. Who did this thing? Was he proud of his depd? In
the company of associates, did he boast? Did be lean back in his chair, or forward on
his bar stool and say "I killed a bald eagle?” If a dad, did he tell his boy all about it?
Yes, whoever you are, you killed a bald eagle. Few hunters could duplicate what you did;
even if they wanted to (we can be thankful they wouldn’t want to). This is because there
are just about no eagles left in Michigan. And theit number is dimishing all too fast over
the entire continent. This majestic creature may be in danger of extinction; IS in danger
of extinction if you, whoever you ate, are one of many. Whoever you are, whatever are
you? Certainly you are no sportsman. Whoever you are, sportsmen and consetvationists
pity you. They pity you because you miss the indescribable thrill of being in the woods
with a gun. The ethic of an age-old sport is obviously not yours to enjoy. You have no
appreciation of the true rewards of hunting.
Established is the fact that you are a
violator.
But somehow you are more—or less—than that. You killed a bald eagle.

TheChilds-Demaray Post of

Day in Vermontville.
At 9 am a tribute will be paid
to navy men at the bridge a mile
south of the village on Ionia
highway. The parade will surt
at the Legion hall at 9:45, will
stop at tbe Congregational
church yard for a tribute to the
GAR dead and then will go to
Woodlawn cemetery where the
Rev. Warren Jackson, pastor of
the First Methodist church, will
be guest speaker.

Plan special service
The American Legion Post of

Memorial Day services Sunday

gregational church. The service
is scheduled for 10 am and the
Rev. Leonard Maunder will de­
liver the message.

Residents of Barry County are asked to nominate a citizen of the
county, who in their estimation has performed a volunteer civic ser­
vice of the greatest value to the community and the state. This is
a relatively new program of the Greater Michigan Foundation in
connection with Michigan Week. It leads to the selection of tenstate outstanding Volunteer Leaden for Michigan, who are honored
by the State.
Last year's ten leadership awards were presented by Gov. George
Romney at a special joint session of the Legislature on Wednesday,
March 2, 1966. The 1965 winners--four women and six men--honored for outstanding volunteer service to their communities and state
had achieved work in interracial understanding, recreational devel­
opment, work in state and local mental health programs, commun­
ity planning and development, urban renewal and economic devel­
opment. social and religious service, child welfare, and advance­
ment of educational institutions within their community.
&lt;
County winners throughout the state will be judged on a regional
level, and all the regional winners will then be submitted by July 1
to a panel of judges who will select the ten Sute Volunteer Leaders
of 1966.
Although the volunteer work of nominees should represent accom­
plishments which have come to fruition within the past-year, often
projects of this nature are something that has been tn the making
for a much longer period. Anyone wishing to suggest a name for
nomination is invited to submit it to Mrs. Jeanne Gould, Route #1,
Hastings, Mich. Nominations should be made in writing, and
should give a brief resume of the volunteer work for which their
nominee was chosen.
Mrs. Gould would like to have all suggestions in the mail by Fri­
day, May 27.

School Millage Renewal Vote June 13
The registered electors oi the
Maple Valley School District
will be voting on a renewal of
the five mills for operational
purposes that expired with the
1965 levy. This millage will be
voted for a period of two years .
covering 1966 and 1967.
Why is this additional money
needed:
1. The Boa'd of Education de­
sires to offer a good educational
program, and school operational
costs are increasing the same as
costs ip other areas.
2. The Board of Education
has adopted a new salary sche­
dule which places the school dis­
trict in a more competitive po­
sition in employing new teachers

and retaining experienced teach­
ers in the school system. Also,
the board is planning to employ
additional staff members for the
coming school year.
3. Money is needed to ex­
pand and improve existing pro­
grams and to add new programs
to the curriculum. The school
district has been fortunate in
having funds available to match
state and federal programs in the
areas of science, mathematics,
history, commercial subjects,
shop areas, and English. Most
all of the equipment in these
areas in the new Jr-Sr. High
School has been purchased
through these state and federal
programs with the cost to the

school district being about fortyfive percent of the total cost.
These programs are scheduled to
continue, and there is equip­
ment that the school district will
be able to obtain in the future
on a matching basis.
4. Maintenance and oper­
ation of buildings: You have
school buildings with an insured
value of $2,190,200 which the
board desires to maintain in
good condition.
Since the time of consolida­
tion the Board of Education has
not had to borrow money for op­
erational purposes. This year
the school district will end the
year June 30 with a balance
which should be near the ending
balance of June 30, 1965, or
$98,175.54. This balance is
necessary to pay operational
costs for supplies, maintenance,
and summer salaries considering
that the school district does not
have any state aid income until
August 25.
Based on the present state e­
qualized valuation of the school
district of $11, 550, 524, a levy
of five mills results u&gt; receipts
of $57, 752. 62. This loss to the
school district would be a hard­
ship, but the greatest loss that
is possible is related to the state
aid act.
This year's state aid act re­
quires that a school district levy
nine mills for full participation .
in state aid. The school dis­
trict has levied in the past the
lower of the two amounts allo­
cated to the school district by
Barry and Eaton counties. Barry
county has allocated eight
mills which the board of edu­
cation has spread throughout

the entire school district. There­
fore, extra operational millage
is needed not only for financial
operational purposes but also to
guarantee full state aid. The
loss of one-ninth of our state
aid this year would be $56, 633.
A state aid bill for the 1966­
67 school year has not been
passed as yet, but the legisla­
ture is considering house Dill
4025. Both the house and senate
have indicated that ten mills
might be required in the new
bill for full participation in
state aid. Therefore, the new
state aid bill might require a
higher millage locally to
re­
ceive the full state aid amount
which is definitely needed by
the schdol district.
Four candidates have filed
petitions for the four-year terms
on the Board of Education, In­
cumbents Christopher King and
John Viele are seeking re-elec­
tion and the new candidates are
Alice McMillen and Bonnie J.
Wyant.

NUMBER 2

Firm seeking women workers locally
‘ Representatives of a medium
sized manufacturer of a quality
line of clothing were in town
last week, attempting to appraise the availability of a
work force here in Nashville.
This manufacturer is interested
in establishing a small plant in
town but first must have some

idea as to what he could expect
in the way of personnel.
The workers the company are
looking for women who
have some knowledge of sewing,
preferably industrial sewing.
The representatives of the
company, who wish to remain
unidentified at this time, said

the work is clean, pleasant and
consists mostly of operating sew­
ing machines in production
manufacturing or wearing ap­
parel.
The investigators said that
they realized there would not
be a large number of women in
the area who are trained in in­

The registered electors of the
Maple Valley School District
will be electing two board of education members for fouryear terms at the annual elec­
tion on Monday, June 13. Also,
you will be voting on a renewal
of the five mills for operational
purposes that expired with the
1965 levy.
Christopher King and John
Viele are seeking re-election to
the Board of Education, and they
were both elected to the beard
at* the first annual election on
June 10, 1963 after the consol­
idation in January 1963. The
new candidates a,re Mrs. Alice
McMillen and Mrs. Bonnie J.
Wyant.

Absentee ballots are available

from Mr. Leslie Boldrey, secre­
tary, Board of Education. His
address is 718 Durkee Street,
Nashville. Application for ab­
sentee ballots must be made not
later than 2:00 pm, Saturday,
June 11. Voters in the former
Nashville School District will be
voting at the Kellogg Elemen­
tary building in Nasnville (for­
mer high school building). Voters
in the former Vermontville dis­
trict will be voting in the multi­
purpose room at Maplewood El­
ementary. The polls will be o­
pen from 7:00 am to 8:00 pm.
The renewal of the five mills
is necessary for expansion pur­
poses and the offering of a good
educational program. An ex­

Bernie Garvey wins
trip to California

•s

Bernie Garvey, 14 year old
son of Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Gar­
vey Jr., of Route 3, Nashville,
will be boarding a plane on
June 13 to start a 5-day vaca­
tion and sight seeing tour in
California.
Bernie was the local winner
in the IGA Boys Contest, which
is sponsored by Makers IGA
store.
Al Smith, owner and mana­
ger oi the store said that Bernie
won his trip by a handy margin
over his nearest competitor.The*
contest was decided by votes of
shoppers at Makers store.
Bernie will fly non-stop from
Kent County Airport to Long
Beach California and he will
enjoy service deluxe and Mid

second to none.
The tour will include a trip
to the famous Knotts Berry Farm
and Ghost Town, a tour of Un­
iversal International Studiosand
a special guided tour through
Hollywood
Bernie will also be in for a
boat cruise around the harbor at
Long Beach, a visit to Marine­
land of the Pacific and a base­
ball game.
The high point of the trip
will be a day-long visit to Dis­
neyland where he will have an
opportunity to see the sights,
take rides and have lunch at the
famous Pirate Ship Restaurant.
Bernie will return to Nash­
ville on Friday June 17.
&gt;

ers for next year. 1'he present
state aid act required nine mills
for operational purposes for full
participation in state aid.
Through Barry county the school
district receives only eight mills,
and the school district is in dan­
ger of losing a portion of state
aid if the operational millage is
not approved. This current year
the loss would be $56, 633. 00
which could easily be doubled
if the new state aid act being
considered how by the legisla­
ture passes requiring ten mills
for full participation in state aid.
The Board of Education would
like to thank you for your past
support, and encourage you to
vote on June 13, 1966.

"ALWAYS BETTER BUYS"

„,.
NASHVILLE

Actually, most of my obser­
vations are complimentary. The
building is very attractive and
functional; the program, for a
school this size, is quite diverse
in breadth and in depth. The
teachers and administrators are
qualified. The general tone of
the school is very good; the rap­
port between pupils and teach­
ers is very good and the build­
ing and grounds are well main­
tained. It was pleasing to note
that the board of education pro­
poses an increase in the salary
schedule for next year. It is al­
so to be noted that from all the
reports I could gather and from .
my personal contact with the
board, it appears that the board
of education is working as a
team and is sincerely interested
in the education of the boys and
girla in the Maple Valley School
District

The only suggestions 1 can of­
fer are ones that you are already
aware of; namely
1. Tfee principal definitely
needs more secretarial help. It
may well be that in the near fu­
ture he will need additional ad­
ministrative assistance; but for
a while I recommend that pri-.
ority be placed on the hiring of
additional secretarial and cler- vjf
ical help for the high school.
2. I am pleased to note that
the board of education promised
to hire an additional industrial
arts teacher for next year.
3. There is still a relatively
high turnover of teachers. Per­
haps this will be reduced now
that there is a new building and
a better salary schedule.
4. It is desirable that you add
an additional foreign language.
One foreign language is really
meager fare for the number of
boys and girls enrolled in your
school.
It has always been a personal
feeling of mine that the super­
intendent's office, along with
a board of education confer­
ence room and the administra­
tive general offices, be located
in a separate building and not
in either the secondary school
or the elementary school.
Permit me to congratulate all
of you again for the excellent
progress you have made. If our
Bureau can be of any aid to you,
please feel free to contact me.

Most sincerely,
Kent W. Leach

$100 on the first of each month
until Darwin reaches the age of
eighteen, or until he marries or
becomes self-supporting, or un­
til he begins the Modem Wood­
men Orphan Benefit college
scholarship plan. ’
If Darwin is accepted by an
accredited college or univer­
sity, he may make application
to the Society for the college
■ scholarship plan. If his appli­
cation t; approved by the Mod­
ern Woodmen Board of Direc­
tors. be will receive a scholar­
ship for tuition and mainten­
ance up to, but not exceeding,
$7200, which shall be paid for
his benefit in periodic pay­
ments not exceeding $1800 for
any. schooI year.
Thus Darwin's four-year col­
lege education will be assured,
solong as he maintains suitable
standards of scholastic progress.
To fourteen-year-old Darwin
Foster this Orphan Benefit means
his plans for becoming an archi­
tectural engineer can continue.
Now a B+ student in the eighth
grade of Maple Valley Junior
high school, his talent on the
saxaphone. hB ptowess on the
athletic fields and his friendli­
ness have earned him the res­
pect and admiration of his fac­
ility and fellow students as welL
Darwiu is hoping his fine
grades and extra-curricular ac­
tivities will gain him accep­
tance by Mitntigan State Univer­
sity at Eas? Lansing immediately
following his graduation from
high schooL
Ironically, Darwin's father,
Mr. William Darwin Foster of
Vermontville, had expressed
shortly before his death his
strong hope that he might live­
long enough to see his son . be
graduated from this college.
Two days.after mentioning his
hope to Mrs. Mikesell during her
call at the Foster-home to dis­
cuss Darwin’s-insurance program,
Mr. Foster and his wife, Leota
Mae, were fatally injured in an
automobile accident six miles
west of Charlotte on»M-79.
Since that tragic February 2,
Darwin has becu residing with
his sister, - M rs. ’Marietta Alldaffer. Friends and relatives of
Darwin's family, notably Mr.
and Mrs. Kenneth Fester of
Grand Ledge and Mr. and Mrs.
Howard Swan of Lansing, have
generously preferred their as­
sistance to Darwin and to the
Alldaffers. Ako, Vermontville
area residents collected more
than $200 for Darwin immedi­
ately following the accident
To this loeal aid will be add­
ed the Modem Woodmen Or­
phan Benefit, which makes a­
vailable to Darwin four years of
monthly payments of 2100 and
the four years at Michigan State
which wul realize his dream of
becoming an architectural en­
gineer.

Thursday, June 9, 1966

Establish emergency radio network
John Bay, Director of Pen­
nock Hospital announced that an
emergency radio network has
been established at the hospital
for use in connection with the
Hospital's emergency room and
in the event of a civil disaster.
"The primary purpose of the ra­
dio, " Bay said, "is to expedite
contact with the physician and
rhe technicians on calL This
should improve the speed with
which we can care for emergen­
cy patients, and it gives our
doctors and technicians much
more freedom in movement. If
they have to go downtown or on
a home call while on emergen­
cy stand-by, we can contact
them immediately instead of
having to wait until they return
home. "
Another important consider­
ation is the use of radio com «•
munications in the event of a
disaster. This equipment is con­
nected to the Hospital's emer­
gency power supply so it will op­
erate even in the event of loss
of electricity in the community.
The Sheriff's Department and
the Hastings Police Department
have been asked to obtain a
monitor so that they can tie in­
to the Hospital's network. The
hospital has on order a monitor
to cover their radio frequency.
It is hoped that perhaps some of
the ambulances in the area will
also purchase mobile equipment
to tie into this network. In the
event of a disaster, this radio
network could mean the differ­
ence between life and death and
certainly will enable the hospi­
tal to maintain communications
and be better prepared for emer­
gencies.
The equipment purchased by
the hospital consists of a 60 watt
base station with two remote
consoles--one located in the
Emergency room and the other
at the hospital switchboard. The
doctor on Emergency call has a
porta-mobile transmitter-re­
ceiver which has a range of 15
to 20 miles, depending on ter­
rain. This will permit two-way
communications between doc­
tor and hospital and/or the E­
mergency Room. Also, a num­
ber of "message mate" receiv­
ers have been ordered for the
technicians on standby emer­
gency call so that they can be
reached without delay when
needed. The radio will have a
selective call feature which en­
ables the hospital to call only
the individual it desires.

tienu and the hospital during
off hours.
"Once the system if fully es­
tablished, " Bay commented,
"we should improve consider­
ably our ability to contact physicuns and hospital personnel
and improve the service to the
community, not only from the
standpoint of the hospital, but
in our ability to locate a doc­
tor for a patient The doctor
on " Emergency Call" -is pro­
vided with the hospital's port­
able radio. However, the ef­
fectiveness of this system will
depend on how many of the
doctors get their own two-way
radios," Bay concluded.

WHAT ABOUT NARROW ROWS?
One night at an
association meeting
somebody says there’s
a leptospirosis epidemic
in the next county.

you do?
You offer to do what you can to help.
Then you continue with the meeting.
Because you did what needed to be
done long ago. You vaccinated with
Pfizer Leptospira Pomona Bacterin,
a chemically-killed whole broth
culture of Lepsspira pomorta, which
assures high potency in every dose,
in most cases, a single injection
annually protects your animals
against “Lepto” throughout the
entire year.
What’s more, Pfizer Leptospira
Pomona Bacterin is aluminum
hydroxide adsorbed. This means
you get slower absorption and
better immune response.
So, inoculating your cattle, swine,
sheep and horses with Pfizer
Leptospira Pomona Bacterin is doing
a favor for both your animals and
your neighbors. You’ll sleep better,
too. Next time ask for Pfizer.

ISIarrow rows are catching on faster than popopen
beer cans. No doubt about it, narrow rows can
widen profits ... on your farm as well as your neigh­
bors’.
"Okay, I’ll agree to that,’’ reply a lot of farmers with
whom we’ve discussed the narrow-row subject. “But
can I afford to make the changeover now? I’m geared
to 38" rows with my planting, cultivating and harvest­
ing equipment... some of my equipment’s half-new.”
Then they play their aces: "What does changing &lt;,
over to narrow rows cost? And how many extra bushels
will I have to raise on each acre before such a change­
over pays off?”
Such questions aren’t easily answered. Briefly, here
are some of the things to consider, basing the figures
on the Doane Agricultural Service chart below:
1 — Herbicide costs will be higher. Figure $1.45 an
acre more. Going from 4O-inch to 30-inch rows means
25% more herbicide.
2 — Seed cost will be higher for soybeans, but not for
com, unless you increase plant population. Soybeans
for seed cost about 60$ more per acre. Every 2,000
plant-per-acre increase in seed corn will add about*
35$ per acre.
3 — Labor, tractor and combine costs for soybeans
total 21$ less per acre for 6-row narrow equipment over
the 4-row equipment, and 41$ less for com. One trip
with 6 rows at 30 inches covers 180 inches, while 4
rows at 40 inches covers only 160 inches of machine
width.

4 — Comparing 6-row narrow versus 6rpw regular, the narrow 6-row system
costs $905 more than regular 6-row on
400 acres. Most of this comes from extra
herbicide costs for com and soybeans
and extra soybean seed, not equipment.
5 — Therefore, total added cost of the
6-row narrow system over 4-row regular
comes to $972.80. This leads us to these
conclusions:
With soybeans at $2.50, it takes an
average of only 2 extra bushels an acre
on 200 acres to justify the shift. And,
since we’re using 400 acres in this com­
parison, that’s assuming no yield in­
crease for the 200 acres of corn, which
is highly unlikely.
If all 400 acres were planted to corn
at $1.00 per bushel, it would take a yield
increase of just 2 bushels to break even
on the changeover. It’s obvious that it
isn’t difficult to recover changeover
costs.
Fertilizer costs are not included in
this study. They would be higher, es­
pecially if higher plant populations are
used.
- On the other hand, if a new combine
is not needed, and only a narrow-row
comhead is purchased, this will lower
the changeover costs substantially from
those quoted here. So if yqu’re ready for
a new combine, but not as yet ready for
narrow rows, it will pay you to buy a unit
which can be easily converted to narrow­
row harvesting with a comhead when
you are ready for narrow rows.

It With Syrup
by Ginny Felstehausen
yrup, you may say, is for pancakes, waffles, and French toast — and for making
creamy smooth candy. And you're right, of course, but corn syrup has lots of other

uses.
It’s a wonderfully versatile cooking ingredient and is used in dozens of ways
by many well-known chefs. These are special touches you can apply, too. For example,
on a summer cook-out, grill chicken with a corn syrup barbecue sauce that really
stays on. Adding just a little syrup while peas, corn, carrots or stewed tomatoes are
cooking will perk up the flavor of your favorite vegetables.
Try using syrup in your next batch of homemade salad dressing. It makes the
dressing cling to the salad ingredients instead of ending up in the bottom of the bowl.
Corn syrup is also a natural to use in making taste tempting desserts. It keeps
frostings, chiffon pies and other desserts moist, smooth and tender. Try the Pear
Pie with Ginger Crumb Topping in this issue of the Farm and Home section.
It will be a sure dessert success!
A final note — in cooking with syrup, remember that it is less sweet than
sugar. Therefore, it blends well with other ingredients without robbing flavor.

Only Karo seals
in so much flavor...
so temptingly!
“Barbecue Sizzle Glaze takes only
4 ingredieots-4 minutes and Karo
1/2 cup Karo All Purpose Syrup
(dark corn syrup)
1 (14 ounce) bottle tomato catsup
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1 Tablespoon mustard
1 (8 ounce) bottle Hellmann’s/Best Foods
Italian Dressing

Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Brush on
hamburgers, franks, chicken, spareribs, pork
chops, etc., while cooking. Bottle the leftover
sauce to use at your next barbecue.

Karo adds delicious flavor to your Barbecue
Sizzle Glaze—helps blend all the ingredjpnts—
provides a luscious-looking glaze that helps seal
in flavor and moisture. Keeps all the juicy good­
ness of the meat from dripping away in the fire.
Whenever your recipe calls for light or dark
corn syrup, always use Karo! Available in pint
and quart bottles; in 5 and 10 lb. cans

�7. It’s too much work to re­
adjust the tent with dawn
only an hour away, so every­
body crawls into the car. Jun­
ior perches ready to leap to
safety in case that big ol'
black bear —. (Every camp
family leams to meet emer­
gencies calmly.)

CAMPING
ANTICS
of rules for camping conduct have been written and discussed.
Organized activity, planned ahead of time, is stressed as one of the most
important musts. Familiarity with camping equipment is a common concept
designed to forestall mishaps. Leaving a clean campsite upon departure is a
basic courtesy easily understood.
Yet in between the rules are many unexpected twists. Somehow or other
we can’t always visualize ahead of time what may happen. When we’re
surrounded by so much fresh air, open sky and unrestrained freedom the old
familiar family antics take on a different and often unexpected aspect.
Beginners, occasional camper-outers and dyed-in-the-wool tenting
families all seem to follow a pattern of minor amusing mishaps. Not all the
antics will occur at the same time, but sooner or later all things will happen to
you — and you — and YOU.
Read on and pick out your own antics. Some of them may seem familiar —.

8. Early-morning review of situation finds everything on
hand except Tipper. TIPPERRRRRR!-------------- . (This is a
good way of waking everybody in the campground before
sunup — so they won’t miss part of a beautiful camping
day.)

9. TIPPER!—Have you been
there all night? (No big ol’
black bear was gonna get
HIM!) (See? — pre-camp
training paid off. HE wasn’t
lost — everybody else was.)

1. Erecting the abode calls for concentrated family coordina­
tion as mother stretches in two directions at once trying to
keep Tipper from walking off with all the important tent
poles. (Practice first at home?)

2. Tent-raising is momen­
tarily disrupted while treed
offspring is brought back
to earth. (Have you laid
down off-limit rules?)

10. Excitement is provided by Momma when agile-footed off­
spring prevent her from being swept out to sea. (The kids
wore rubber soles — momma forgot her own. But nobody
will let Momma drown — who would cook dinner?
4. Night-time finds the kids ready to call

3. Dinner plans are disrupted when
camp stove refuses to balance on solid­
appearing apple box. (The law of gravity
is always with us on a camping trip.) -

it a day, except that Junior wants to camp «
by himself down by the big hollow tree.
(Have you checked the people-capacity of
your own tent lately?)

6. Father foggily inquires what on
5. Peaceful dreams are interrupted by downfall of can­
vas domicile. (Tomorrow night will find stakes more
firmly driven in the ground AND a flashlight within
easy reach.) In the meantime —

earth Junior is doing on top of the
car. It seems there was a big ol'
black bear — I! (The result of an
over-scary campfire tale. Serves
you right, pop!)

11. And so the departure date, gloomily viewed by the kids,
finally arrives. Home is always the haven when one runs out
of groceries on a camping trip. Kids hate to think of taking
a bath when they get home — which is a reminder to check
bathing facilities when picking a family camp-site for a pro­
longed stay.

but he was too young to be away

were trying to keep a little
baby rabbit alive other men in
the world were doing their best
to kill each other. The world is
a funny place--men killing
men at the same time that a
family stays up half the night
to keep a baby rabbit alive.
Along that same line--a man
walked in space, in an unknown
void and an entire nation, per­
haps a world hoped for his safe
‘ return. Another man walked
down a peaceful country road
in the south and because he be­
lieved in something different,
because his color is not just the
same as some others, because
he stands for basic human rights
he was shot.
Somehow these things just
don't seem to go together.
I was talking to a friend a­
bout the war in Vietnam. We
talked of the threat that the ar­
mies of the Communist Chinese
ate to the world. This friend's
idea is that they would be less
of a threat if they were well fed.
He is of the opinion that w e
should take all of our surplus
food and send it to the Chinese
with no holds barred. This
friend thinks that is they were
offered food without having to
fight for it they would be con­
tent to just sit. He may have a
point there.

Will provide
Zip Code lists
Immediate steps to make ZIP Codes more accessible to the mail­
ing public were announced today by Postmaster General Lawrence
F. O'Brien.
The measures are being put into effect following a nation-wide
poll which showed that while virtually every American --96 per
cent — is familiar with ZIP Code, further action should be taken
to make it easier and more convenient for the public to know the
ZIP Codes they need for letters and packages they send through the
mail.
The Postmaster General said that:
1. In the coming months carriers will deliver to every household
in the nation a form to be filled out with a list of the addresses most
used in correspondence by members of the family. The Post Office
will supply, without charge, the ZIP Codes for each mailing address
on that list.
2. Instructions are being issued to all postmasters to arrange to
supply ZIP Codes information by telephone on a regular basis during
normal business hours, and to have a special listing for ZIP Code in­
formation in the telephone directories of the larger cities.
3. The telephone industry, including the Bell System and inde­
pendent companies, will start putting Unproved ZIP Code maps and
information in prominent easy-to-find places in the Yellow Pages
of telephone directories published throughout the country. The direc­
tories will come off the press late this summer.
4. The Department's new Executive Planning Board will begin
Immediately exploring other means of making ZIP Codes more eas­
ily available to the public.
The poll, conducted by Elmo Roper and Associates, found that a- '
bout half of the population is using ZIP Code. Of the remaining
half who are not ZIP Coding their mail, 80 per cent said the reason
was that they didn't know the ZIP Codes for the people to whom
they write.
"The free ZIP Coding of lists of most frequently used addresses
for personal correspondence should help to increase significantly the .
use of ZIP Code," Mr. O'Brien said. "This extra service will make .
it easy for individual mailers to include ZIP Code as part of the ac­
cepted routine in addressing letters. "
Women are more inclined to use ZIP Codes than men, the survey
showed. Its use varies considerably among different segments of the
population, but is highest among groups which tend to be heavier
users of the mail--women, upper economic groups and residents of
large cities.

The car ahead had a boat on
a trailer, so my friend thought
be would have no trouble follow­
ing. He drove for hours behind a
boat trailer in a dense fog, fol­
lowing close. In fact he follow­
ed a stranger right into his ga rage in some small town. Some­
where along the way be got with
'the wrong trailer.
It worked out fine though. Af­
ter apologizing to the stranger
for following him right into his
garage, my friend took off, with
no idea as to where he was or
where he was going. He came to
a rather busy highway and pulled
into traffic, right behind the or­
iginal boat and trailer.
Another time he went to De­
troit and made a reservation at
the Gaslight restaurant. He then
took his wife to the Top of the
Flame and became very indig­
nant when they told him they
had no record of the reservation.
This worked out too. Because he
really believed he was in the
Gaslight, he became so indig­
nant that they gave him a table
and real service. He discovered
bis error when he picked up the
menu to order. Of course, he
said nothing to the head waiter.
Now he has done it again. He
and his wife were invited to a
little reception after graduation.
They had been to this house once
before and thought they knew
just where to go. So they walked
in on the Mndwiches and coffee.
They assumed the hostess was in
the Kitchen and that the gradu­
ate was taking his girl home or
some such.
It suddenly dawned on the wife
that they were in the wrong house
and at the wrong party.

"The Orchard Keeper, "by
Cormac McCarthy is a new
book at the library. This first
book of the author introduces a
striking new talent to the liter­
ary scene. The action takes
place early in the century in a
community in East Tennessee.
The main characters, a boy, a
man and an old man are each
resisters of the advance of civ­
ilization.
"Daily and Sunday, " by Rich­
ard Powell is a novel of news­
paper power and politics. A­
gainst this background the story
describes the search for a man
to replace a brilliantly aggres­
sive but recently dead publisher.
"A Man in the Wheatfield,"
by Robert Laxalt, a little town
in an immensity of desert. A
benevolent aging despot of a
mayor who has created the town
to his own liking. A priest ob­
sessed by a vision of evil. Out of
these ingredients this moving
story which is of our time and
place and is a story no reader
will easily forget.
"The Long Summer of George
Adams, " by Weldon Hill, the
author of "Rafe", full of truth,
humor and love, this story of an
Oklahoma town in the mid-cen­
tury may possibly become a
famous American novel
"Never No More, " the story
of Rebecca Boone, wife of Dan­
iel, by Shirley Seifert. This
biographical novel begins in
1773, with the Boone family
and other settlers pushing
through the wilderness toward
Kentucky. All of Shirley Sei­
fert's hovels are based on Amer­
ica's past and this is no excep­
tion.
"Yankee Doodle Dandy." by
Noel B. Gerson is a biographi­
cal novel of John Hancock who
was the first man to sign the
Declaration of Independence in
a hand writing so large King
George III would not need to use
his spectacles. The story of John
Hancock--half hero, half outlaw--is filled with all the drama
of this stirring period in Amer­
ica's history.

scholarship program is progress­
ing much the way it was antici­
pated in 1964.
It suited at $500, ODO that
year and higher education offic­
ials hoped to boost the legisla­
tive appropriation to $1 million
the following year. This year
$1. 6 million in scholarships
were awarded under the compe ■
titive’program.
Superintendent of Public In­
struction Ira Polley said'nearly
10,000 scholarships have been
awarded since the start of the
program. Some 4,221 of these
were awarded this Spring for
Fall college enrollment.

Students are selected for the
financial assistance under the
program primarily on the basis
of need. Amounts of the schol­
arships vary, - from $80 to $800,
depending on- ttye individual
need and costs at the school the
applicant plans to attend.
Demonstration of college
ability is also required.
Polley’s office said this year's
scholarships went to students
planning to attend 82 different
institutions in Michigan, includ­
iblic and private col
col-­
ing both public
leges and universities and some
community colleges.__________

FOR A

Even in his first term in the
Senate, there were many ob­
servers who predicted Milliken
would rise to the Governor's
chair one day. Now he is just
one step, and potentially less
than four years, from that spot.
Gov. George Romney surrep­
titiously upped Milliken as his
running mate in 1964 when the
new Constitution provided that
the chief executive and Lieu­
tenant Governor run on a team
ticket.
Reorganization of state gov­
ernment this year gave Michi­
gan's No. 2 man a few impor­
tant responsibilities in addition
to presiding over the Senate. ,

Now Romney has once again
given him the nod for what ap­
pears to be an almost certain
second term, this one for four
years under the Constitution.
With more and more national
attention being given to the
Governor's potential in nation­
al politics in 1968, and Rom­
ney hedging carefully with ev­
ery wor&lt;
comment, Mill!
ken stands in the best possible
spot to step into the No. 1 spot
to fill out an unexpired term.
An incumbency label and a
short period of getting used to
the jot&gt; are strong factors to
broadcast when running for of­
fice.

Radock said announcement
of the theme at this time was
contrived to get citizens to use
it actively throughout the
months before next year's of­
ficial observance. The theme
is frequently used during Michi­
gan Week on business letter­
heads, postage meters and oth­
er printed matter.

"Tens of thousands of sum­
mer visitors from all over the
nation and many parts of the
world will be our guests during
the next three months and all
of us should help show Michi­
gan's advantages and friendli­
ness to them, " said Radock.
"This theme gives us both in­
spiration and opportunity. "

Hold reception
for Hollopeters
This is moving week for the
ministers of the EUB Michigan
Conference who were assigned
to new pastorates at the recent
annual session.
The Rev. Jason Hollopeter was
transferred from Nashville where
he has served during the past
year, to the Fremont, Ind. cir­
cuit consisting of four churches
which will be served by both
Rev. and Mrs. Hollopeter. The
family plans to move to the new
field this Wednesday.
A farewell reception for the
Hollopeters was held in the
church Sunday evening and was
attended by a large number of
the congregation. Group singing,
a solo by Marlene Ackett, a
piano number by Barbara Snow,
a reading by Mrs. Wilma Day,
and tributes of appreciation for
the Hollopeters were spoken by
several of the officials. Refresh­
ments and a social hour follow­
ed the program. A purse was
presented to Rev. and Mrs. Hol­
lopeter.
The new minister assigned to
the local EUB church, Rev.
James Varner, and family, will
arrive in Nashville later in the
week. He will conduct the wor­
ship service next Sunday at 10
am. Everyone is welcome.

Club membera
enjoy outing
Close to 50 4-H members
from the Barryville and Moore
4-H clubs, and their guests and
leaders, enjoyed a hay ride and
soft ball game Saturday evening,
June 11th. Meeting at the Clay­
ton Swift home, the group trav­
eled to Charlton Park by tractor
and wagon, furnished and driv­
en by Clayton’s dad. Bill Swift.
Using equipment furnished by
Chuck Dilliner and Chris Han­
sen, the soft ball game got un­
derway immediately, drawing a
few spectators from near-by
campers. Barryville had chal­
lenged Moore, then got beat,
with the final score 12 to 6.
With their appetites a 11
worked up, the gang then roast­
ed hot dogs and marshmallows
over the camp fire. Each person
brought their own weiners and
buns. The Moore club furnished
the kool-aid, and Barryville fur­
nished the marshmallows, pota­
to chips, doughnuts andhotaog
trimmings. Members of the
Food committee were Pam Pufpaff, chairman, Jill Wyant and
Dean Marshall.
Everyone agreed Charlton Park
was an ideal spot, with a ready
made ball diamond and picnic
tables and camp fire area close
by. Barring minor complications
like hungry mosquitoes and for­
getting to bring spoons for the
mustard and relish, a great time
was had by all.

Going to the beach
is no way to beat the heat!
A day at the beach can be fun, but it doesn’t solve the hot
weather problem. The modern solution is to make your home
the most comfortable spot in town with central "whole-house”

Everywhere you go — the office, store, beauty shop, bank,
theatre, restaurant; even the family car, you enjoy the cool*
comfort of modern AIR CONDITIONING. So why not bring
your own home up to date with central ELECTRIC AIR CON­

Home is where people spend most of their time and when
you stop to consider the many benefits that AIR CONDITION­
ING affords — more comfortable living, more healthful living
(better humidity control, better sleeping conditions, etc.)

Part of the mine is now used
as underground storage. There
are 3 deep freeze areas with a
temperature of 0 degrees and
other storage areas are 33 de­

tatoes, several kinds of nuts,
dried fruits, tomatoes, cheese,
orange concentrate and lemons.
It seemed quite chilly to the
ladies but our guide Paul Kragt
who with his father and brother
own the mine said it is very
healthy down in the mine. They
never have colds and there is
little dust and high humidity.
Besides a huge elevator which

This is also an air raid shelter

It is used in the manufacture of

Suffers minor
traffic injury
Mrs. Talbert (Beulah) Curtis
was taken to Pennock hospital
Friday suffering minor injuries
following a two car accident at
the M-66 and Bivens road inter­
section.
Mrs. Curtis was traveling west
on Bivens road and had stopped
at the intersection, before cross­
ing M-66. As she continued she
failed to see a car driven by
Willard Redman, Sr., coming
from the north on M-66 and the
can collided. Redman was not
injured.

Harvest Festival well attended
Nashville's three-day Harvest
Festival was well attended this
year.
The affair, sponsored by the
Nashville Volunteer Fire depart­
ment and the Chamber of Com­
merce, opened Thunday eve-,
ning when eight fire departments
from the area held a water "bautie" on Main street in front of *
the fire bam. The battle consists
of two departments attempting
to push a nail along a wire sus­
pended over the street,
with
streams of water from fire hoses,
keeping the ball in the oppon­
ent's territory. One by one the
departments are eliminated.
This year's winner was Middle­

ville, with Hastings the runnerup. Departments participating
were Pine Lake, Bellevue, Free­
port, Vermontville, Woodland,
and Nashville, along with the
two top teams.
Along with the firemen get­
ting soaking wet, occasionally
the crowd also gets drenched
when a hose gets out of control­
sort of an "audience participa­
tion" stunt, so to speak.
On Friday afternoon there was
a pony pulling contest and indie
evening a stage show featuring
professional acts presented by
Danny Daniels, Ray Scheetz and
Neal Hale. The stage shows
were repeated Saturday after-*
noon and evening.

and 3 losses.
On Friday of this week Sher­

CL 9-7216

Michigan educators and youth leaders interested in learning more about conservation and
how to fit it into their programs for youngsters can start doing something about it right
now. It’s not too early for them to apply through the Conservation Department to attend
this summer’s courses dealing with natural resources at the Higgins Lake conservation
school and Camp Shaw near Chatham in the Upper Peninsula. Teachers who turn students
for one of these week-long sessions will learn the ABC’s of conservation from classroom
studies and field trips (left photo). They will return to their own classrooms next fall
with better backgrounds to open the eyes and minds of their pupils to conservation and
wonders of the outdoor world (right photos, top and bottom). For enrollment forms and

What causes accidents?

Ask an expert
He sees them every day, in the traffic
congestion of large cities, on the quiet
streets of small towns and on the open
road. He spends most of every day be­
hind the wheels and he knows what the
dangers are on our streets and high­
ways. His driving record shows that he
is well trained because Mr. “Average
Truck Driver" drives hundreds of thou­
sands of nfties without a chargeable ac­
cident.
Discuss accidents with him. He won't
talk about nuts and bolts. He knows
that most accidents are the result of
poor driving practices.
The excellent safety record of profes­
sional truck drivers is no accident; it
is the result of proper driver training
and a continuing campaign to empha­
size safe driving techniques. As a result,
truck drivers obey the law, are cour­
teous. alert and always drive, aware of
the dangers which are present.
If you ask an expert what causes ac­
cidents, he’ll tell you it’s the driver
behind the wheel that makes the dif­
ference.

How They Run’
next at Ledges

‘See

On June 28. the Ledges Playhouse in Grand Ledge began its tenth
anniversary season with a rousing production of a Thousand Clowns.
Opening week interest was so high an extra performance of See How
They Run has been scheduled.
- Tne new management has made several attractive changes in the
old theatre. The lobby has been redecorated and this week features
a display of the designs and blueprints which resulted in the unique
thrust stage.
The new stage more than proved its merit this week by creating
an intimate relationship between performers and audiences. The
first audiences were highly enthusiastic about it.
The second production, See How They Run, will open Monday
July 4 with a special holiday performance beginning at 5:30 ano
finishing at 8:00. Grand Ledge has scheduled its annual fireworks
display at 9:15.
See How They Run is a fast paced romp through an English coun­
try vicarage. Kate Wenger as Penelope Toop, the Vicars slightly
unconventional wife, and Jay Davis as Clive,. an old friend from
her acting days, unintentionally create most of the confusion.
The ridiculous situation is further complicated by the pompous
village spinster, Miss Skillon, portrayed by Saundra Kouray, and
the accidents which befall poor Lionel Toop, Penelope's absent­
minded husband. Dean Tsehetter, a talented young actor from Ne­
braska, makes his first appearance on the Ledges stage in this role.
Mistaken identity, unexpected arrivals, and an excaped Russian
spy together with tne zany antics of a cockney maid named Ida,
played by Nancy Cole, climax in a frenzied chase which is undoubt­
edly one of die funniest sequences in theatrical literature.

JohnGaedart's announcement
in the Echo of last week didn't
come as a particular shock to
most of us, but that does not
make the news any easier to
Uke.
The death of a newspaper,
like the death of a person may
be expected but it still causes
sadness when it comes.
No-one likes to see a news­
paper, or any other business in
town go out of existence. Yet it
is one of the economic facts of
’life that it is becoming increas­
ingly difficult for small busi­
nesses to keep going in small
towns.
Years ago a farmer would
uke half a day off to go to
town to get a nair cut and take
care of a few other items of
business. Today he can jump in
his car and drive to Lansing,
have his hair cur, shop, see a
lawyer and be back home in
less time than it used to take
his grandfather to drive three
miles to Vermontville and back.
As a result of these changes
the small town itself is chang­
ing. In order to exist at
all
many towns have had to join
together to provide services for
their people. We have done this
with our school and we are do­
ing it with other services.
We at the News--Maple Val­
ley News--The Nashville News,
would like to serve the entire
Maple Valley Community.
John has contemplated quiting publication for some time.
His biggest concern was the peo­
ple of Vermontville. He didn't
want to let them down so he
continued a money losing bus­
iness for some time after he
knew he could do much better
for himself.
Now it has come to the point
where he feels he just must uke
a position where he can make
more money to support his fam­
ily and also learn more so that
he can earn more in the future.

We Boughtons have a new boy
at our house. Bernard Chien,the
son of a very good friend of ours
is suying with us for the sum­
mer. He is observing the process
of producing a newspaper to get
a background in the field. He
is a senior at Midland high
school and hopes to uke journa­
lism when he goes to college
next year.
Bernie is just one of the fam­
ily now and he is becoming fam­
iliar with the business and is
getting acquainted with many
people-in town. He says he is
very impressed with small town
living and already he looks up­
on Nashville as his home town.

in her yard. The poor little fel­
low was too young to uke care
of himself so Isabelle picked
him up and put him in a bird
cage. She has Uken it upon her­
self to be a mother to the poor
fellow. This emails talking
baby-bird-talk to him, smooth­
ing his feathers and physically
poking food down his little gul­
let.
He has become so used to be­
ing fed by her that when she
passes the cage he opens his lit­
tle yap and makes squawking
noises to let her know that he
expects to be fed again.
He is the eatin'est guy I have

Isabelle sees that he gets it.

Homer Cousins has a rooster
who every day takes his life in

down the road from his yard
(right at the railroad crossing on
Vermontville road) to the new
school This is a distance of a
good half mile.
When he gets back from the
school he eats his lunch and
takes a brief nap. Homer says
he then takes off in the other
direction and walks down to the
Standard Sumping plant. By
that time it is time for the eve­
ning meal.
Homer says he goes to bed
early so that he can get up for
an early breakfast and surt out
for the school again.
Homer calls him Tramp.

Laws which duplicate others or
cannot be enforced seem a waste
of time and money.
' One enacted this year Involves
an edict to school districts to re­
view their textbook purchases to
ensure fair treatment of the
races.
It tells the local districts, in
effect, to be sure that the teach­
ing tools they use do not reflect
badly on minority groups such
as Negroes, Jews and Indians.
It empowers the State Board of
Education to chick periodically
to be sure the local boards are
following the law.
Missing, however, is any pow
pow ­
er for
‘ the State
t—Zz Board
2-_ J or
_r any
other ivemmental unit to punish scl ol units which choose to
stick with old books which, for
example, never picture a Negro
or Indian child in a group pic­
ture.

While this is not a duplication
pf any law, a formal policy
statement to this effect was is­
sued some years back, however,
by then Superintendent of Pub­
lic instruction Lynn M. Bartlett.
In addition to being sent to
the.various school districts in
the state, it was brought to the
attention of the textbook pub­
lishers and ‘distributors which
serve Michigan districts.
Presumably in the three or
four years since this policy was
circulated, most schools nave
purchased new textbooks incor­
porating the policy.

HEAVENLY PATROL
Speeding drivers are the pri­
mary target of a new attack on
highway accidents. It likely is
one of the most expensive traf­
fic safety moves which could be
undertaken, but it could be ef­
fective.
Involved in the new program
to enforce driving laws are three
air planes based at Lansing, Tra­
verse City and Marquette.
Carrying from two to fourmen,
planes are equipped with speed­
time charts which translate stop­
watch fractions of a second into
vehicle miles per hours.

Working in conjunction with
the highway department, 20
sections of roadway which were
frequent accident scenes were
selected for special markings.
These consisted of painted lines
measuring a 660-foot strip of
road.
By timing the car traveling
the 660 feet, a stop-watch held
by a policeman in the plane
marks the exact speed of the ve-

hide on the ground.
If the speed is over that al­
lowed by law, word is relayed
to a patrol car not far from the
marked strip, the motorist is
stopped and ticketed or warned.

Cost of operating planes is
great State Police decided to
give the air spotting system,
used in several other states, a
try in an attempt to discourage
speeding and ouier violations,
such as improper passing and
following too closely.
Air spotting could prove to be
very effective. As one of the
first men stopped
noted, "I
guess you guys really did me a
favor. " He was traveling over

LABOR SHORTAGE
A seemingly ironic problem
is reported by the State Correc­

prison administrators are having
a difficult time finding neces­
sary labor to keep the prison in­

The problem arises partly be­
cause of changes in the frequen­
cy of paroles and shorter sen­

Another factor is the type of
criminals housed in the prisons,
which operate 14 separate in­
dustries.

For all purposes, the new law
will not likely mean any change

License necessary for day care of children
With the advent of summer
many local persons are adver­
tising to care for children in
their homes. The Michigan De­
partment of Social Services
wishes to advise these people of
the necessity to be licensed by
the state for this enterprise, as
provided by Act 47, PublicActs
of 1944 (first extra session), as
amended.
Any private home in which
unrelated children under 17
years of age are given care for
specified periods of time is
considered by the state as
a foster home. The term ap­
plies to all types of foster homes,
including the so-called free
homes, work or wage homes,
as well as the home in which
money payment is made for
board and care, whether full
time or day care is given.
There, is no charge for a fos­
ter home license.
Rules and regulations for the
inspection and licensing of fos­
ter homes in Michigan are sum­
marized below:
To receive a license to care
for children in the home, the
person applying for such licen­
ses must have references: thrfft
friends, the family doctor and
minister.
If the home does not have
city water, water and sanita­
tion tests are required. If these
tests are made by the Health

Department, there is no charge
for them.
All persons in the home over
12 years of age must have a
physical examination. The to­
tal number of children under
17 in a home shall not exceed
eight, including foster children.
Any private home in which
one or more children of minor
age are given care and super­
vision for periods of 4 or more
hours a day for 4 or more days
a week for 2 or more consecu­
tive weeks, shall be deemed
to be a foster home. Minor
children for the purposes of this
act shall be children under 17
years of age who are unattended
ny a parent of legal guardian,
except children related by blood
or marriage.
Before issuing the license, a
representative of the State De­
partment of Social Services shall
investigate the activities and
standards of care of the appli­
cant, and if satisfied as to the
need for the foster home, its
financial stability, the good
character and intent of the ap­
plicant, and that the equipment
of the home and its services are
conducive to the welfare of
children, a license shall be is­
sued.
PENALTY ■ Any person who
violates any of the provisions of
the foster home act shall, upon
conviction, be deemed guilty of

JULY* CLEARANCE
A

a misdemeanor and shall be
fined not less than $25 or more
than $100 or imprisoned in the
county jail not less than 30 days
nor more than 90 days, or both
such fine and imprisonment in
the discretion of the court.
Persons who need a license
should write to Mrs. Beatrice
Fisher, Director of Social Ser­
vices, Barry County Department
of Social Welfare, 107 N.Broadway, Hastings.

Comedy is featured
next at Ledges
i I

The Ledges Playhouse will pre­
sent a third kind of comedy this
week, its third week of produc­
tion in Fitzgerald Park, Grand
Ledge. Eugene O'Neill's "Ah
Wilderness!" will be featured, a
play O'Neill called "a comedy
of recollection." It will open
Tuesday evening, July 12 and
run through Saturday, July 19.
This play is of particular in­
terest to young and old alike. A­
bout the Miller family in the
year 1906, it demonstrates that
the conflict between parents and
teenagers is nothing new.
Young Richard Miller, played
by Jay Davis, is just at the age
where he feels he must rebel against--including parenul con­
trol. He thinks he's fallen in
love, if he just knew what love
was all about
His parents, portrayed by Nan­
cy Cole and Richard Thqmsen,
can only worry and threaten to
punish a boy who is almost a
man.
And when Richard comes
home drunk, after his first try at

drinking, the family is in an up­
roar. Only Uncle Sid, played by
John Peakes, is capable of un­
derstanding--Uncle Sid has a
drinking problem of his own.
"Ah, Wilderness!" is of spec­
ial interest, too, to Senior Citi­
zens, those of us who lived
through America's "golden age"
just prior to World War L The
Ledges production will bring
back a hood of memories, of
clothing styles, of manners, top­
ics of conversations, the songs
that were popular.
This production will also in­
troduce a new young actor, nine
year old ("going on ten") Lor­
ing Wirbal of Grand Ledge. The
son of the Louis Wirbals, young
Loring is a born actor. He plays
the role of Tommy, the young­
est Miller child whose main in­
terest in life is fire crackers.
From a Broadway hit, to an
English farce, to a gentle com­
edy of America's younger days,
the Ledges' season is a com­
plete cross-section of comic
theater.

Senate Bill No. 710, which
was introduced by State Senator
Roger Johnson (D-Marshall), has
passed both houses of the Legis­
lature with immediate effect.
The bill will be presented to the
Governor for his approval
Senator Johnson, Chairman of
the Senate Agriculture Commit­
tee, stated, "The bill will pro­
vide much needed tax relief for
Michigan farmers. The farmer
presently pay. out a higher per­
centage of his income in taxes
than the average citizen does.
It will entitle any farmer to ex­
empt his machinery or other tan­
gible farm property used for the
production of income from per­
sonal property taxes. "
"This legislation will help to
lighten the inequitable and un­
fair tax burden placed on our
farmers in Michigan."
"Property tax exemptions have
been made for many other bus­
inesses and industries. The auto
industry was one of the most re­
cent benefactors from a similar
exemption when the 1964 Legis­
lature enacted a -bill to exempt
tools, dies, jigs and fixtures."

Teacher attends English Institute
Lucinda J. Martin, a teacher
at Maple Valley Junior and Sen­
ior high school, Vermontville,
is participating in the Advanced
Composition Institute for high
school English teachers at Michi­
gan State University.
Thirty-six teachers from
twelve states are enrolled in the
program, which concludes July
29.
The Institute, which is spon­
sored by MSU and the National
Defense Education Act, is de­
signed to improve the teachers'
writing ability and to introduce
new materials and techniques.
Special emphasis is placed on
the participants’ own writing.
The content of the session is
divided into Pre-Writing and
Re-Writing. In Pre-Writing the
principle of creative discovery
is stressed. Re-Writing is an in­
troduction to a system of edit­

ing using style analysis charts.
Reports from participants in
last year's Advanced Composi­
tion Institute indicate that the
methods taught are quite appli­
cable and successful in high
school classes.
The Institute is headed by Dr.
Herman R. Struck of the Depart­
ment of English at MSU.
Mrs. Martin lives on Route 2.
Nashville.

Jackpot winner
Mrs. Janice filter was the win­
ner of $100 in scrip in last Fri­

During the storm of Saturday
afternoon, lightning struck the
barn on the farm ot Jerry Norris
of Valley Highway in Vermont­
ville.
The Vermontville fire depart­
ment had to go five miles out of
the way to the fire because of
trees that had fallen across the
road. At one time the truck got

to a fallen tree in the road just
as the Consumers Power Truck
crew were removing the tree.
The bam, a structure of about
40 by 60 feet was completely
destroyed. About 1500 bales of
hay, a mowing machine and a
car in addition to other tools
were lost with the building.

Comedy is featured
next at Ledges
A farcicai production of Wil­
liam Shakespeare's A Midsum­
mer Night's Dream will come to
boisterous life on the Ledges
Playhouse stage July 19 through
July 23.
Artistic Director John Peakes
has been able to reproduce one
of Shakespeare's funniest come­
dies in a way-fie feels the avid
theatre-goers of Elizabethan
England would have wanted it,
and the way Ledges' audiences
will enjoy it most.
It's hilarious family enter­
tainment with the rowdy humour
of the mechanicals, a rough
crowd of well-intentioned out
always blundering peasants, con­
trasted with the amusing antics
of Puck the fairy sprite.
Puck, played by Kate W e n ger, entangles four lost teen­
age lovers in a mesh of confused
relationships. It's almost impos­
sible but not quite. Though the
lovers speak Shakespeare's famour lines, their exaggerated
■
anguish is modern and as amus­
ing to today's audiences as it
was three centuries ago. '

Peter Arnott, as Bottom, gives
an added touch to his perfor­
mance having grown up in Eng­
land and Wales. He brings to
the Ledges a long association
with the plays of Shakespeare.
The Ledges thrust stage is
very much like the stage of the
Globe Theatre, for which
Shakespeare wrote. The many
plot actions weave on and off
the stage, each finding its own
setting in the imagination of
the audience.
The costumes were designed
and built by the Ledges costum­
er, Sidney Poelj* for this pro­
duction. In keeping with Direc­
tor Peakes' production design,
all the costumes are based upon
the clothing worn in the middle
ages
A Midsummer Night's Dream
opens a three week run of plays
with particular appeal to all
theatre-goers. The Ledges stage
will come alive with the great
characters from the theatre,
those who have been popular
through the centuries.

is an ideal place to be.
The price of frozen cherries is still up in the air and I can't as of
right now say what it will be. I know that they will be higher than
last year and as soon as I can get a price we will sure be advertising
and taking orders. I'm sure we will be able to get sweets again this

NUMBER 8
----------------- -

NASHVILLE. MICHIGAN, THURSDAY. JULY ?1. 1966

Will open branch plant in Nashville
Representatives of the Baby
Bliss Company, tf Middleville,
announced last Wednesday that
the company has started making
preparations to open a branch of
their manufacturing operation
in Nashville.
Mr. Harold Mohawk and Mr.
Arthur Gunther, met last Wed­
nesday evening with members
of the Nashville Chamber of
Commerce and ironed out de­

tails of the move.
Mr. Mohawk, plant manager
and Mr. Gunther, sales manager
of the company said that they
were negotiating to purchase
the building which used to house
the Gamble Store, and that they
hoped to start moving machines
into the building in about three
weeks.
Part of their consideration of
Nashville for the location of the

plant came as a result of a sur­
vey conducted by the Nashville
News. Response to a coupon in
the paper trying to appraise the
availability of help was e n couraging to company officials.
The labor force to carry on their
sewing operation in Middleville
is limited and that was a prime
factor in considering the move.
The company, which has been
doing business for 67 years, or­
iginated in Grand Rapids, and
has been under the present man­
agement for 19 years. They
manufacture baby clothing and
about 95% of their articles are
for children not over a year old.
Mr. Gunther said that 65% of the
articles they manufacture are
for very young infants, within a
few weeks old. He said these
are mostly gift items and he lik­
ened them to the Cadillac of
the industry.
Mr. Gunther said the firm has
some 85 employees in Middle­
ville. He said the building ca­
pacity here is about 45 to 50
machines. He said that they in­
tended to make stretch items in
the Nashville plant and that at
present they have about 25 peo­
ple employed making these i­
tems in Middleville.

about safety in automobiles
that they had to recall six thous­
and new St. Christopher medals
that were defective.

My buddy Dick, who owns
the Lake Odessa Wave, has done
it again. The other day he discovered that his aluminum boat
was missing. He started to cuss
out the person or persons who
had stolen it when he suddenly
remembered that a lady had put
an ad in his paper some ten days
da
g that a boat had
. property.
----...
drifted up on her
Sure
enough, it was his.
He says he didn’t charge the
lady for the ad.

The Boughtons hope to take a
week off for vacation the first
week in August. We will print
the paper for that week. August
4, the week before, so we will
need early ad copy next week.
All news and advertising copy
for the week of August 4 should
be in the News office on Mon­
day, July 25th. The paper will
be printed ahead of time but
will be distributed on the regu­
lar day.

I heard that with all this talk

When the end loader tipped
off the trailer, one of the men
on the crew asked the bystanders
if anyone had a camera to get a
picture of it. Someone suggested
calling me; but he allowed as
how he really didn't care to have
me know about it at all.
Almost immediately after that
I was alerted to the fact that
there had been an accident and
went right out to the Fuller street
school where it had happened.
When 1 got there the man in
charge said "you're the one we'
didn’t want. "
His big mistake was telling
someone he didn't want me.

How does George Vogt man­
age to get such good looking
help? Tne other day he had a
painter who really added to the
decorations. She was much
prettier than the walls she was
painting.

Nothing goes better on a hot Sunday afternoon than an ice cream cone in a cool park.

18 TOO YOUNG?
Voters in November will have
a chance to decide a question
regarding teenagers. The teens
themselves are apparently fairly
evenly divided on the same is­
sue.
The question is: Should the
privilege to vote be extended to
persons 18 years of age and old­
er? Four states now permit vot­
ing by persons less than 21 years,
the age of majority in Michigan
today.
A proposal to put the question
on the fall ballot, passed in the
State Senate last year and car­
ried over for House approval this
year.
Teens who wrote to legislators
about the resolution primarily
endorsed the theory that if they
were old enough to fight for
their country they should have a
say about who runs the country.
But a statewide poll conduct­
ed by the Youth Advisory Coun­
cil, an arm of the Michigan
Youth Commission, indicated
the letter-writing teenagers
might be a minority among their
peers.
The Council's survey indica •
ted more teens opposed lowering
the‘voting age. Neither the pros
nor the cons got a clear major­
ity however.
The Council study showed
44. 46 per cent of some 33, 000
high school students polled were
opposed to a reduction in the
voting age. Almost 14 per cent
were undecided or failed to vote.
Backers of the proposal number­
ed slightly over 42 per cent.

''Under Milkwood’
next at Ledges
• The entire acting company
at the Ledges Playhouse is in­
volved in this week's produc lion of Under Milkwood, July
26--July 30. A cast of twenty
is required, plus a group of
.eight children, to portray this
examination of the lives of
those who inhabit a small town.
.. The play is by Welih poet
Dylan Thomas, in which he
takes the audience on a tour of
a~ fishing village, Llareggub.
Beginning in the early morning,
winding through the aay, and
ending at bed time, Thomas
gives the audience a look into
the lives of a wide panorama
of characters.
Each actor has to play sever­
al roles in this production. Un­
der Milkwood was written for
radio, but prior to its broadcast,
was staged in New York,and has
/been staged many times since,
always to enthusiastic audience"
response.
It is often called the Welsh
Our Town.

But unlike the American play,
Under Milkwood is peopled by
such unforgettable characters as
No Good Bovo, the village ren­
egade, Lora Cutglass, who
minds his collection of clocks,
Mrs. Ogmore-Pritchard, who
dreams of her dead husbands,
Old Captain Cat, haunted by
his memories--and many many
more.
Two narrators lead the audi­
ence through this marvelous day.
The first will be played by Pe­
ter Arnott, a native of England
who was educated in Wales. He
brings to his part all the rich­
ness of language which so bright­
ens Under Milkwood, and
makes it an uproarious look at
life.
Like all small towns, Llareggub appears quiet on the out­
side, nut is seething underneath.
The private lives of even the
most proper citizens are nothing
like their public lives.
Under Milkwood marks the
half-way point in the Ledges'
tenth anniversary season.

Barry County to Vote Aug. 2
On Proposed $490,000 Jail
Residents of Barry County will
have an opportunity to pass judge­
ment on a new County Jail at the
Primary Election to be held Au­
gust 2.
The proposed new jail, slated
for a site west of the Fairgrounds
■ in Hastings, is expected to cost
$490,000. At the present time
the County has no jail, as the
existing one was condemned by
the State Corrections Commis­
sion in September of 1964. Since
that time the prisoners have been
. boarded in jails of other counties,
principally at Eaton County.
■ The issue to be voted upon will
be for two mills on State equali­
zed variation for two yeas. This
• is expected to raise $340,000 and,
- with $150,000 the county now has
in a building fund for the jail,
should be sufficient to pay for
the jail without bonding.
The jail building was defeated
several years ago when the voted
turned down the proposed court­
house and jail on the present
courthouse square in downtown
Hastings.

This Spring? the Barry County
Board of Supervisors took an op­
tion on some property for $36, OB
located west of the Fairgrounds.
This parcel is a six-acre plot
that is deemed adequate for an
initial jail to contain cells for
35 prisoners and can be expand­
ed in the future to 60 prisoners.
Plans at this time call for a
functional and economical de­
signed building with face brick
exterior. In conjunction with the
jail cellblock will be the adr
ministrative offices of the She­
riff’s department and the residen
of the Sheriff.
Although other factors enter
into the picture, the Board has
found that the boarding of pri­
soners in other jails has been
costly. The Sheriff’s budget has
jumped $40,000 in the past two
years to cover the additional
costs of transporting prisoners
and boarding them in nearby
jails.
,
Any resident who is a qualified
elector of the County may vote
upon the issue August 2.

THE INDIANS ARE COMING....
Michigan Indians are again
going to nave a pow-pow, or
whatever you want to call it, on
the 12th and 13th over at Charl­
ton Park.
According to Mrs. Stansell,
(she used to have lot of infor­
mation about the past around
here) this was quite a sumping
ground for the Indians. I can be­
lieve her too, because there is
plenty of evidence of their hav­
ing been here.
I don't know what they did in
the past over there at Charlton
Park, but I know that now-adays they arrive in air condition­
ed Oldsmobiles and eat peanut
butter and jelly sandwiches wash­
ed down with a bottle of Coke.
They used to sit around and
have war dances and plot against
the white invaders. Now they ,
have conferences with their law­
yers to see how they are coming
on the latest attempt to be com­
pensated for land uken away
from their ancestors.
I hope they collect their mon­
ey. They deserve it Michigan
has not treated the Indians at all
well This was a nice place to

live before Cadillac and his
crowd came barging in about
3S0 years ago.

My next-door neighbor,Jerry
Shoup, is an expert on finding
Indian arrow heads-and spear
heads. He can go out for a Sun­
day walk and come back with
all kinds of things. He played
golf at the Hastings Country Club
last summer and round arrow
heads on the back nine. He seems
to know just where to look for
them.

The kids in Vermontville had
a ball watching the old school
being knocked. One man from
Vermontville told me that the
kids were throwing rocks through
the windows. The kids said that
the wrecking crew told them it
was OK to break the windows if
they got a kick out of it. They
did and they did.

THE VERMONTVILLE ECHO

�nor and state senators arc named
to four-year terms.

By ELMER E. WHITE. SECY
MICHIGAN PRESS ASSOCIATION

A CERTAINTY
Like the rebel's cry for the
South, in Michigan tax reform
will rise again. D
Democratic gubernatorial can­
didate Zolton Ferency is making
fiscal reform a major battle­
ground against Gov. George Rom­
ney. although the GOP incum­
bent has largely ignored his op­
ponent on this point to date.
Romney dropped his plea for
tax reform this year in defer­
ence to lack of cooperation from
the 1965 Democratic-dominated
legislature. Since the treasury
was in good shape to carry
through the current fiscal year,

the pressure for reform was off.
When he announced he would
not press a reform package this
year, however, the Governor in­
dicated the need would be pres­
ent again soon, probably to m
make ends meet in the 1967-6.8
fiscal year.
There were several indications
last year that more Democrats
might be inclined to get togeth­
er with Romney on a reform pro­
gram after the 1966 elections if
they maintained their majority.
The November election will
be the first at which the Gover- •

Primary Election
Tuesday, August 2

Assuming the Democrats
maintain control of the 38-mem­
ber Senate and 110-seat House,
it would be easier to do along
with tax reform in 1967-1968.
House members seeking re-el­
ection in 1968-could claim the
Governor wanted reform and the
Senate wanted reform so they
were powerless to stop it. B y
the time the Senate members
sought new terms, most of the
electo.ate would be so used to
the new tax structure they would
have lost any anger-based in­
tentions of "throwing the rascals
out. "

BADLY NEEDED
Michigan State University's
request for permission to
op­
erate a full-program medical
school came as a surprise to
some since its two-year human
medicine program is just getting
nicely startci
The initial program will be­
gin with its first students this
falL It has been in planning for
nearly six years and four years
have passed since the legisla­
ture authorized its operation.
The formal request by the
MSU Board of Trustees to the
State Board of Education was
actually probably very well
timed.
As expected, the State Board
told MSU President John Hannah
the request will need study in
terms of the overall medical ed­
ucation available in Michigan.
Study, as President Hannah
well knows, can and frequently
does involve a number of years
before any result is seen in terms
of a program.
Thus by asking now for p e r mission to expand the new twoyear program, Michigan State
probably stands a good chance of
handing out its first medical de­
grees to the students who are en­
rolled this fall in the limited
program.
HALF MEASURE
"People have regular check­
ups by their dentist or doctor,
but they won't get regular check­
ups on their cart until the law
requires them to. " stresses Gar­
net M. Griffin, managing direc­
tor of the Traffic Safety Associ­
ation of Detroit.
Michigan's legislature was not
quite ready to require regular
safety checks as urged by Griffin
and others this year, but it did
take a step which the experts be­
lieve will eventually lead to
mandatory auto inspections.
Traffic lafety experts have
claimed that states which do re­
quire periodic checkups of autos
have seen a decrease in acci­
dents.

Legislators were not convinced
that mandatory inspections of
all cars at state-approved gar­
ages would have such a benefic­
ial result.
A spokesman for the Motor an ■
Equipment Manufacturers Asso­
ciation says that over 50 per
cent of the cars on the road do
not meet generally accepted
performance standards for safety
The figure is based on the ex­
perience in 20 states which have,
safety inspection laws.
This was the 15th year the
Michigan legislature was asked
to pass a compulsory inspection
law.
Doubters won out, but the
did go along with a spot-chec
proposal to allow state and local
police to establish temporary
safety inspection stations.
Motorists stopped and fount
with mechanically defective
autos can be ticketed and taken
to court.
Since the bill was not given
immediate effect, it will not be
used until early next year. With­
in a year or two after its initi­
ation, this spot survey method is
expected to provide data on
which the legislature can deter­
mine whether mandatory inspec­
tion would be of value.

�Steam reunion planned
The Michigan Steam Engine
and Thresher’s club will hold its
annual reunion Friday, Saturday
and Sunday, July 29, 30 and 31.
The entertainment they put on
this year will be the same, o r
better, than in previous years,
but the location has been
changed.
This year the reunion will be
held at Dave Barry’s Marina, just
south of Thornapple river on the
Charlton Park road. The new
location is on the south side of
the river, rather than at Charl­
ton park where it was held for
! several years. The new location
; is undoubtedly more adequate
and even easier to get to than
before.
On display, and featured in
races, steam threshing, baling
and sawing, as well as ramp
climbing and teeter-totter bal­
ancing stunts will be some 25
steam engines, large and small,
as well as several oil pulls and
gas engines.
There will be two big parades
this year, one at 9 am and the
second at 1 pm of all the en gines on the ground. They will
be used in pulling contests on a
large steel float, in a tug-ofwar, and in furnishing power for
a saw mill and shingle mill. The
steam saw mill will be set up
by the Blough Brothers of E m pire, and the shingle mill by
Lynn Mix of Hastings. The big
machines will also he used to
"run the bases" in a baseball
game each afternoon. A veneer
machine will be set up by Mel­
vin Lugten of Hamilton.

Before any of the big steam
engines can be operated at the
three-day show they must under­
go rigid inspection. This will be
done on Tuesday. July 26. by
James M. Kasel of the Commer­
cial Union Insurance company
of New York. The inspection of
the engines is mandatory by the
State of Michigan as a safety
precaution.
The entertainment starts each
morning at 9 am and there is
something of interest going on
continuously until closing time
at 9 pm.

Play-offs start
August 2nd
Teams in the Junior High
League will start play-offs i n
Vermontville on Tuesday. Aug­
ust 2nd. All games will be play­
ed at the Vermontville athletic
field and will suit at 6:30.
On Tuesday Nashville will
play Sunfield, and Woodland
plays Saranac.
On Thursday, Vermontville
will play the winner of the Nash­
ville-Sunfield game and Lake
Odessa will play the winner of
the Woodland-Saranac game.
The two winners of these
games will play for the cham­
pionship on Friday August 5th.

Barry County to Vote Aug. 2
On Proposed $490,000 Jail
Residents of Barry County wjjl
have an opportunity to pass judge­
ment on a new County Jail at the
Primary Election to be held Au­
gust 2.
The proposed new jail, slated
for a site west of the Fairgrounds
in Hastings, is expected to cost
$490,000. At the present time
the County has no jail, as the
existing one was condemned by
the State Corrections Commis­
sion in September of 1964. Since
that time the prisoners have been
boarded in jails of other counties,
principally at Eaton County.
The issue to be voted upon will
be for two mills on State equali­
zed variation for two years. This
is expected to raise $340,000 and,
with $150,000 the county now has
in a building fund for the jail,
should be sutticient to pay for
the jail without bonding.
The jail building was defeated
several years ago when the votert
turned down the proposed court­
house and jail on the present
courthouse square in downtown
Hastings.

This Spring, the Barry County
Board of Supervisors took an op­
tion on some property for $36,00
located west of the Fairgrounds,
this parcel is a six-acre plot
that is deemed adequate for an
initial jail to contain cells for
35 prisonets and can be expand­
ed in the future to 60 prisonets.
Plans at this time call for a
functional and economical de­
signed building with face brick
exterior. In conjunction with the
jail cellblock will be the adr
ministrarive offices of the She­
riffs department and the residen
of die Sheriff.
Although other factors enter
into the picture, the Board has
found that the boarding of pri­
soners in other jails has been
costly. The Sheriff’s budget has
jumped $40,000 in the past two
years to cover the additional
costs of transporting prisoners
and boarding them in nearby
jails.
,
Any resident who is a qualified
elector of the County may vote
upon the issue August 2.

of the State and its progress.
During the 1961-62 Constitu­

Romnev and Stanley M. Pow­

from the 89th District, both
served as delegates. They de­
veloped a warm friendship
and mutual confidence and re­

forward now that one is Gov­

Governor Romney deserves

While you folks are reading
this, I will be out on a beauti­
ful little golf course over in Port
Sanilac living it up!
We workea like goats at the
News office last week to print
two papers. This one was print­
ed on Friday and put in the post
office to be mailed out on Wed­
nesday. In this way, we get a
head start on the week and are
able to take a vacation.
I'm so tired from getting
ready for vacation, thought
that I may sleep all the way
through it.
Weil
that would be a va­
cation for me, too.

.

«

Our starting to publish the
Vermontville Echo came just
at the time we were getting
ready to go on vacation. This
rather threw us into a spin try­
ing to get into a routine with
the two papers.
Last week's Echo and News
were the same paper; we just
put a separate cover on each.
Some of the folks who have
subscriptions to both papers
noticed the similarity be­
tween them and have called
up to ask just what is going on.
Actually, right after we get
back from vacation we are go­
ing to consolidate the two pa­
pers into one paper to serve the
entire Maple Valley community.
Those of you who have subscrip­
tions to the Echo will go on get­
ting the paper. Those who have
subscriptions to both the News
and Echo will continue to get
it.
*
If your News subscription
runs for six months more and
your Echo subscription is good
for nine months, then you will
get 15 months more of subscrip­
tion. In other words, one sub­
scription will run out and the
other take over.
The subscriptions of the Echo
combined with those of the
News bring our total circula­
tion up to over two thousand.
We are. going to do our best
to serve the Maple Valley com­
munity with news, pictures and
advertising messages. In order
to do this properly, we will
need cooperation from the
people of the area. If you have
news or if you know of some­
thing that would make an in­
teresting picture, a call would
be appreciated.
I'm sure that most people
will understand it is not pos­
sible to always "drop every­
thing” and take a picture -­
but we promise to do our best.

When I went over to take the
picture of Marie Christiansen
and Kate Augustine with the
baked goc^is, I got so hungry
that my mouth watered and I
drizzled all over the camera.
Marie noticed it and when I
took off, she gave me a loaf
of fresh home-made break
which Kate had just taken out
of the oven. .
• 1 didn't even go back to the
office. Just went right home to
have a slice of fresh, hot, home­
made bread with jelly.
Boy, that is really living!

So good to be with... 1220
Good things go together-good company, good music,
dependable news—on radio 1220

ly the tale of a king ot ancient
Britain, but rather it is a story
that deals with the eternal
theme of patent-child relation­
ship.
,fHow sharper than a serpent's
tooth it is to have a thankless
child" has been echoed
by
thousands of parents who have
experienced the misery of a
child's ingratitude.
When Lear is first seen, he
is proud and vain, unreasoning
and unreasonable. Seemingly
insulted by one daughter, and
turning to the other two rapa­
cious vixens, the swayinggiant
tumbles first into towering rage
and then to madness.
The theme of the play may
be described as the educa­
tion and purification of Lear.
Through the cruelty of his
daughters, the terrors of the
storm on the heath, and a final
realization when nothing is left
of life. Lear is granted the
wisdom and humility that
should have come with his
white beard.
He is a rash, impetuous and
spoiled old man and it is Ins own
follies that bring down upon his
head the punishments that chas­
ten and transform him.
John Peakes will portray the
old king, a role he first created
in a Boston production in 1963.
The part of the king requires
botn maturity, for Lear is in the
last years of nis life, and the
vitality of a younger man, be­
cause it is so physically demand­
ing. Peakes capably fills both
demands, and brings into focus
many of the dimensions of
Shakespeare's mightiest charac­
tor.
The Fool, who serves as a sort
of chorus or commentary, is al­
so there to emphasize the trag­
edy of Lear and to reflect at
times the vague thoughts flitting
through the old king's mind. His
presence affords some of the
most subtle and moving passages
in the play.
This Ledges' production will
be under the direction of Steph­
en Schultz, an Elizabethan
scholar and an authority on Elithe faculty of Iowa State Univer­
sity and has had considerable
experience with Shakespearean
production.
From Shakespeare's day toour
own, men and women have con­
templated the blind and inex­
plicable turns of fortune and
nave echoed the cries of Lear.
Because of the values inherent
in King Lear, special student
arrangements can be made for
this production.

It is always somewhat ot a let­
down to come home from a va­
cation and find that the town
got along very well without you.
Just as always, our vacation
ended too soon. The week was
gone before we got off the first
tee, as it were. Y et we were all
glad to get back home and back
to work.
My former boss used to mildly

complain each time he went
on vacation. He said that every
time he went away for a week
or two, business increased and
advertising went up. He said
that we were making him look
bad.
The thing that gets me is to
talk to someone about my vaca­
tion and have him come out
with, "Have you been gone?

dry. Isn't that the way life is?

I have a little item on my

DETROIT—A seagull in Mid­
land? Why not? Actually, the
term “seagull" is a popular
misnomer applied indiscrimi­
nately to the various kinds of
gulls, many of which range far
from the sea, points out Prof.
William L. Thompson of Wayne
State University s biology de­
partment.
"Eleven species of gulls
have been recorded in Michi­
gan," he says. "The most com­
mon are the herring gull and
the ring-billed gull. Most of the
others only pass through the
state during their migration to
and from more northerly nest­
ing areas. All are large, white­
breasted. gray - backed birds
with black wing tips.
"Gulls feed on insects as
well as fish,” Dr. Thompsor
points out, "and it is for this
reason that they are ofter
found inland so far from ths
water. Gulls have been ob
served flying above plowing
farmers, in search of insects
or worms that may be turnec
up. A monument in Salt Lake
City commemorates the time
seagulls saved the Mormons
from a plague of grasshoppers.
"In their marine-area eating
habits, both the herring and
ring-billed gulls are primarily
scavengers, feeding, on dead
fish washed up on the beach or
floating in the water," he says.
"They also gather about fish-

ing vessels or at refuse dumps
near lakeside cities."
Herring gulls use "aerial
bombing” to open clam shells
and get at the soft clam inside.
They pick the clam up from a
mud flat, fly over a hard sur­
face. and drop it from a height
of about 40 feet, repeating the
process if necessary.
"Gulls usually nest in colo­
nies, often on islands where
they can be safe from small
mammals that might eat their
eggs or young. The nest is
usually built on the ground of
sticks, grass and moss but
occasionally built in trees if
the colony is subject to dis­
turbance by man," says Dr.
Thompson.
There are usually three eggs.
Young chicks are able to swim
not long after hatching but do
not usually take to the water
soon unless they are forced to.
The oarent seagulls feed the
chicks for about five weeks,
after which they are able to
care for themselves.

PAY AT THE TOP

Total cost of top-level state
administration will jump sharniv
next year if the State Civil Service Commission's recommen datibns are accepted by the Leg­
islature.
Under the 1963 Constitution,
the Commission is responsible
for recommending pay levels
for all executive appointive positions which are not classified,
plus the few elected posts.
The present salary levels for
these posts range from $16,000
tor tne head of the Licensing
and Regulation Department, to
$30, 000 each for the Governor
and Mental Health Director.
This top figure is also authorized
for the unnamed Superintendent
of Education.

Legislators and the Governor
have previously discussed raising
the salaries for these top 20 posts,
Another 70-odd positions are
involved in the Commission
: plan because each of the depart­
ment heads has one or more de­
puties not classified by civil
service.
Currently the nearly 100 posts
involve an expenditure of
$1,221, 000. The recommended
changes would boost this by
$220t 000. Only two of the 20
department heads would remain
at present levels, $20,000 each
for the elected Secretary of
State and Attorney General
Highest paid under the Com­
mission plan would be the Mentai Health Director, a psychia| trist, at $36, 000.
The Commission says the
boosted rates will be necessary
to get and keep good people tn
the top positions which do not
' offer the job security provided
by civil service status.

Space problems at the fouryear institutions of higher ed­
ucation continue to exist despite
massive construction programs.
The community colleges seem
to offer the answer to part of
these problems.
In addition, schooling beyond
the secondary level becomes
more in demand. Community
colleges offer many courses on
a one or two-year basis to ena­
ble youths to fit into jobs.
Existence of the college pro­
grams locally, or within com­
muting distance, brings higher
education within the financial
reach of many thousands who
could not attend a campus
elsewhere..
Proof of the community col­
leges' importance is seer, in
statistics other than the basic
number of such units now in use
or planned. In 1955-community colleges, usually known at
that time as junior colleges,
listed enrollments of about
13, 500. Last fall some 61, 275
students were enrolled.

ATTEMPT CONTROL
A spending ceiling on State
Senate committees was put into
effect this year. It was viewed
with mixed reactions by law­
makers and others.
The $10,000 annual spending
limit would apply to all except
the important Appropriations
Committee, by far the busiest
of the working units in either
house.
Sen. John T. Bowman, DRoseville, said he foresaw the
problem that the public would
assume the entire $10, 000 al­
lowed was being spent by every
committee. This would be a
very high figure for most com­
mittee activity in past years.

LOCAL HELP
Rapid growth of the state's
major colleges and universities
is frequently chronicled while
another education institution
gets less largely unnoticed des­
pite their increasing importance.
Community colleges are now
taking their place in education.
Today there are 19 in operation.
Another five will soon open
doors to students.
Last year the state contribu­
ted about $4 million to assist
in the creation and expansion
of community college facili­
ties. This year the capital out­
lay allotment is expected to be
at least double that, and pos­
sibly triple or more.

____

The other side of the coin is
that legislators might feel the
limit is a mandate for spending,
rather than a ceiling.
Sen. Bernard O'Brien, Detroit
Democrat who heads the Insur­
ance Committee whose activi­
ties at least partly prompted
the limitation, said he planned
to ask for $5, 000 before the
ceiling was set.

Under normal circumstances,
for routine committee business,
even this would be a relatively
high figure. He didn’t indicate
whether he would keep his com­
mittee expenditures within his
intended request in view of the
higher level set by the leadership.

"This meat isn’t fresh and I bought it yester­
day,” stormed a Mrs. Food Buyer to Mr. Meat
Department Manager.
He sweetly said. “It can happen." And he
refunded her money.
I asked him how it happened. Yes. she bought
the meat there yesterday. When she bought the
meat it was fresh, lop quality. W'hal happened
during the time between the store and her re­
frigerator caused the trouble.
Meat, tightly wrapped, left in a hot ear for
any length of time rapidly deteriorates. Meat
quality lowers fast in high temperatures. To re­
tain the high quality meats we, pay for, we must
hurry the meat from the coldness of the store
case to the coldest spot in the home refrigerator.
Then, too, in this weather our refrigerators
are not always at the cold temperatures we take
for granted. Often opening of the door for cold
drinks and often loading it to capacity, often with
warm foods, keeps our refrigerators below par
in coldness. The best temperature for storing
meat is 38 to 40 degrees F.
Fresh meat wrapped in market paper should
be rewrapped loosely in waxed paper or alumi­
num foil to allow circulation of air. Prepackaged
meat should have the wrapping loosened before
the meat is refrigerated, to allow air circulation.
Ground meats, such as hamburger, and
cubed meat, stewing beef and variety meats such
as liver, should be used the day of buying for
best eating quality. Steaks, chops and small
roasts can be held under good refrigeration for
two 'or three days, larger roasts for slightly
longer.
■
Canned hams and cured meats should be
kept in the refrigerator, too. .
Cooked meats’ proper storage is important,
too. Cooked meats should be allowed to cool, then
be promptly covered or wrapped tightly to pre­
vent drying and placed in the meat compartment
or very cold part of the refrigerator. Meat will
keep better if left in larger pieces and not cut
until ready to use.
Under efficient refrigeration, cooked roasts
and larger cuts of meat, if unsliced, will hold
for four or five days. Cooked meats, if to be
held for longer than four or five days, should be
stored in the freezer or freezing compartment of
the refrigerator.
Good labeling helps lots when ham hunting.
Hams labeled “fully cooked" have been heat­
ed to an internal temperature of 150 degrees F.
and require no additional heating before serving.
Hams labeled “smoked” only were heated to
140 degrees F. intemaliy and must be cooked
further before eating.
In fact, cook all ham well, unless the label has
the words—“Fully Cooked."
Spending by legislative com­
mittees has frequently been cri­
ticized in many quarters. Study
trips near and far have been
used and abused often enough to
have earned the derogatory
name, junkets.
Whether the $10, 000 spending
limit willdo much to improve
the image of committee study

is questionable. Previously
each committee asked for spe­
cific appropriations for interim
work such as the various trips.
Only if the limitation is used
as a guideline, maintaining
careful scrutiny of individual
sizeable expenditures, can the
image of committee work hold
any nope for improvement.

These are dog days in more
ways than one. For hunting
dogs, it’s a time when their
owners start putting them
through their paces to get
ready for the fall small
game seasons.
Actually,
this is a toning-up period
for sportsmen as well as
their dogs; both get their
"bag limit” of exercise.
It’s this kind of pre-season
practice that makes for
perfect teamwork in the fall.
Close to the real thing, own­
ers are able to train their
animals on game which may
be hunted with dogs during the regular shooting seasons.
However, only pistols and revolvers with blank cartridges
may be used during these off-season "dry runs.” — Mich.

con­
ducted by the board president,

bers present were Christopher
King, John Viele, Charles Viele,
Wallace Graham and Herald
.
Hansen who was recently named
to the board. Hansen replaces
Leslie Boldrey who resigned to
accept a position as a teacher
of social studies in the junior
high department. Absent Mon­
day evening was Dr. Thomas My­
ers, board member. Others at
the meeting were Supt Wolff
and junior-senior high school
principal, Forrest Rinehart.
Still to be hired on the teach­
ing staff are a junior high Eng­
lish teacher, a third grade teach­
er and a fourth grade teacher.
Miss Jean E. Riley of Concord has
been hired to teach junior high
mathematics and Ronald Rosin

been hired as secretaries at the

Maple Valley junior-senior high

tary school respectively.

surplus food, and the hot lunch
program did not break even this
past year. Very little meat was
available last year and the out­
look this coming year is no bet­
ter. There is a possibility that
no butter will be received this
year from food surplus. There
were 125, 515 student lunches
served last year and 6, 346 adult
lunches, and the hot lunch pro­
gram ended more than $2, 813
in the red.
Last year the school charged
students in grades 1-6 25 cents
per day. This will be raised to
30 cents. Grades 7-12 will also
pay five cents over last year, or
35 cents, and teachers and
school employees will also pay
a nickel more, or 40 cents per
meat
The board voted to continue
the same operational levy as
last year. The allocated mill­
age is eight mills and extra vo­
ted millage, five mills. The
debt retirement millage is 6. 9
mills. Based on this, 100 per
cent collection would be
$80, 949. 89. The amount need­
ed for bond retirement and in­
terest is $75, 543. 76.
Regarding the millage levy
for the 1966-67 school year
Supt. Wolff said," considering we
have received good increases in
state aid the past two years, the
state department and legislature
have checked closely to com­
pare the local school district
levy in comparison with past
years. One or two years without
a good increase in state aid
could easily take care of the
general fund balance consider­
ing what teacher salaries might
increase to be in the near future?
Books in the junior-senior high
school will be sold at cost for
the books or workbooks plus the
postage. In the typing classes
the fee will be $2. 50 which in­
cludes the rental of typing text­
book which will be left in the
classroom, and general supplies.
Laboratory fee for high school
and junior high science classes

NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN. THURSDAY. AUGUST 18. 1966

NUMBER 12

�backstreet barometer
.

One of my favorite pastimes
has been taken from me.
For the past couple of years I
have entertained myself with
counting the numbers of people
who went the wrong way on Ma­
ple Street.

Maple was made a one-way
street in a noble experiment,
which was to provide more park­
ing space for the crowds of peo­
ple who come flocking into Nash­
ville each day. The idea was
that if the street were one-way
the cars would be parked on both
sides of the street on an angle to
the curb, and thus, we could
crowd in many more cars in a
given space.
Right from the word "go" there
was an element who said it
would never be practical to do
this. One man told me that we
would have hundreds of drivers
backing into each other as they
pulled out of the parking spaces.
Actually, I only witnessed one

backing-into, and that invoivea
only one driver. The other oper­
ator was in the restaurant having
a cup of coffee.
On a good day I could count
as high as twenty cars threading
their way through the labyrinth
of back fenders and bumpers.
When it was at all possible. I
would inform the drivers that
they were flying in the face of
the established pattern of doing
things with their individualistic
attitude.
Through the trying one-way
period I received a number of
interesting answers when I in­
formed drivers that they were
going the wrong way on a one­
way street.
The answer by the greatest
percent was, " I'm only going
one way. "
The folks from out-of-town,
particularly those from larger
towns, (this includes almost any
town there is) would ask, "what
is a town of this size doing with
a one-way street?"
One fellow going the wrong
way looked so surprised when I
told him that I asked "Didri't
you see the arrow?" "I didn't
even see the Indian, " he ans­
wered.
Monday morning they took
the one-way signs down and life
seems to be confused for the
packers and drivers. People are
still parking on the wrong side
of the street and some are still
attempting to park on the angle
while others are paralleL All of
this just makes life more inter­
esting hereabout.

Things look particularly good
for the area just now. The Baby
Bliss plant is being fixed up and
looks nice. Fuller Heights real
estate development is progress­
ing to the point that one home
is now being built.
The Nazarene church owns the
Fuller Heights development and
they have already sold ten lots.
They still have 30 good lots left
thought, and this should make a
beautiful new addition to Nash­
ville.______________________ __

Landscape photos
available now

Summer is the active season for snakes in Michigan and here are the ones you’re most
apt to see. If you shudder at the thought of meeting up with snakes, it may ease your
mind to know that Michigan has only one poisonous species—the Massasauga or swamp
rattlesnake. And even this rattler, confined to the Lower Peninsula and Bois Blanc
Island, is not nearly as deadly as many people think. Its poison cou'd be fatal to a
small child, but there is no authentic record of a person dying in Michigan from the bite
of a native rattler. Superstitions and myths have generated many false fears about
snakes and clouded the generally beneficial role these reptiles play in the "balance of
nature.” --Mich. Dept, of Conservation

�major licensing function has
been urged by several official
organizations, but without spe­
cific funds for it. Hare's office
can only accommodate the func­
tion when it becomes nccessary
because the local agency
re­
fuses to continue.

By ELMER E. WHITE SECY
MICHIGAN PRESS ASSOCIATION

IMPROVED PLAN
An innovation started just
six months ago by the State Cor­
rections Department will soon
begin paying at least part of its
own way.
Some 57 inmates are in­
volved in a program in which
they work outside the prison
compound during the day and
return to their penal home at
night.
Earnings of the men reached
$30, 000 at the six-month mark.
One third of each inmate's earn­
ings is set aside to support his
dependents. The bulk of the
remainder is put into savings for
the inmate’s-start when he fin­
ishes his prison term.

The Corrections Department
also assesses a small portion of
the earnings to help defray the
operating costs of the work-pass
program. This amount is re­
turned to the state's general
fund.
Department Director Gus Har­
rison says the plan is working
exceptionally welL Both the
employers and the inmates in­
volved are pleased with the ar­
rangement.
Harrison said a number of
employers participating in the
program have indicated they
would like to maintain their in­
mate-workers after parole. The
department chief said offers of
this type would not be included
in the plan because the depart­
ment does not want to place
large numbers of parolees in
any given community.

Most inmates in the program
indicate they appreciate the
confidence placed in them and
the opportunity to help support
their families.

Under the program, nq in­
mate convicted of a sex offense
or assualtive crime is allowed
to participate. Inmates are
placed in jobs only if the regu­
lar labor supply is short.

GRIM PROBLEM
Despite the reams of news­
paper copy written in the past
three years when accidentshave
been on a steady rise, Michi­
gan's death toll on the highways
continues to skyrocket.
High weekend counts and a
rising rate of multiple-fatality
crashes this year recorded a
boost of 10 per cent over the
1965 rate in the first sevoj
months of the year. July count
was 1,203, compared to 1, 092
in the same period last year.
Many study groups work yearround to seek ways to better in­
form the public to the need for
awareness of highway safety.

State Police increased road
patrols on weekends; put air­
planes in the sky to spot traffic
violators who pose highway
hazards. Still the toll climbs.
Highway officials work con-

stantly to determine etfectivv
mechanical safely features.
Nearly $5 million will be spent
in the current fiscal year for
overhead sign illumination,
pavement edge-marking, medi­
an guard rails, bridge pier re­
flectors, skid-proofing and oth­
er devices believed to enhance
driving conditions.
Truckers, bus drivers and
many motorists drive with their
vehicle lights on in the d a y time to serve as a reminder of
the need to keep safety in mind.

SLOW CHANGE
One year after the issuing of
colored photographs on driver's
licenses, state employes were
serving the bulk of Michigan's
population, but full takeoverof
this operation by the state was
not in sight.
Local police or sheriff's offi­
ces previously processed the sale
of new and renewed licenses,
but many balked at the extra
work involved in getting out the
new style licenses in mid-1965.
Secretary of State James M.
Hare indicated a willingness to
have his department take over
the entire process. Funds were
not provided for this, so instead
it is taking place gradually.

Agencies which process the
license applications are: paid
pa: on
a straight fee basis per license.
lice
Most of the units which changed
said it no longer was a paying
proposition.
Hare said recently the state
is now serving about 60 percent
of Michigan's licenses drivers.
Although the state has taken
over only 23 stations out of 150
in Michigan, many of these are
in the heavily populated areas.

DAIRY HERDS CREDITED
Dairy cows in area herds have
been credited with recently
completed lactations under of­
ficial production testing rules of
Holstein-Friesian Association of
America. These RegisteredHolsteihs and their actual perfor­
mance records are:
Hulong Baron Sue 5048487, a
four-year-old, produced 23,430
lbs. of milk and 938 lbs. of but­
terfat in 365 days; Hulong Bar­
on Sue Goldie 5551094, a twoyear-old, had 15. 990 lbs. of
milk and 690 lbs. of butterfat
in 365 days; Hulong Baron M
J R Elsa 5395740, a three-yearold, had 21, 730 lbs. of milk
and 716 lbs. of butterfat in 305
days-, Hulong Baron Marie Jo Jo
5395738, a three-year-old, had
23,800 lbs of milk and 885 lbs.
of butterfat in 357 days; Hulong
Sensation D Polly 5681140, a
two-year-old, had 16,600 lbs.
of milk and 628 lbs. of butter­
fat in 305 days. All are owned
by Hubert Long, Woodland.
These new production figures
may be compared to the esti­
mated annual output of 7,880
lbs of milk and 285 lbs. of but­
terfat by the average US dairy
cow, notes the national Hol­
stein Association.
Michigan State University
supervised the sampling, weigh­
ing and testing operations in co­

THE VERMONTVILLE ECHO

�From broadway musicals, to tent shows, to chauUuqua and lyceum work to managing antique shows
seems more than most persons would care to attempt.
However, it has come easily for Mrs. Ora Slout of
Vermontville who has been in the public eye for
more
n 50 years. A vivacious, attractive woman
who doesn't mind admitting she is past retirement
age, has a special charm, a warmth and humility
which undoubtedly was developed from her varied
experiences.

I

In her early teens Mrs. Slout appeared in musi­
cals in the west Later, married to Vern Slout of
tent show fame, they became interested in promo­
ting antique shows, a business she has carried on
since his death in 1955.
Not being content with the 20 shows she has been
managing which include some she helped her sis­
ter, Mrs. Lillian Crowson of El Paso, Texas, toman­
age, she has now purchased the Great Lakes An­
tique Show from L. F. Johnson of Wayne. This in­
cludes two shows held annually in Etetroit, two in
Bedford and one in Grand Haven. The Grand Haven
show is the first one she will do and that opened
Wednesday, August 17. When the Detroit show o­
pens in October it will be the 45th exhibition there.

The Great Lakes Antique Show has had but three
other managers in the more than 25 years it has
been in existence. First owned by Wm. L. Kendall
of Detroit, it was purchased by S. E. Leonardson of
Decatur, Ind., and later by L.F.
When
L. F. Johnson. ”
‘
Kendall owned the show he was given a small met­
al frog as a good luck charm. Now Mrs. Slout has
the frog, but when she sells the show the frog must
go along to the new owner.
Mr. and Mrs. Slout became interested in antiques
as the result of her personal interest in this field.
She started purchasing antiques for her own collec­
tion many, many years ago, and also for her sister
who is an antique dealer. Now her main interest is
concerned with her doll collection which she treas­
ures. At first, before she became aware of the true
value of antiques, she purchased any doll that was
pretty and met her fancy. Now she collects only
originals.
One of her most prized dolls is a Jenny Lind or­
iginal This show depicts the soprano Swedish
Nightingale with long dark hair worn in a knot, or
bun, at the back of her head, instead of the curls
across the back of her head. Another highly prized
doll is of Admiral George Dewey of Spanisn Ameri­
can War fame. He is dressed in the original clothes,
though they are a little moth eaten. The doll is
about 14 inches high, his boots are molded on, and
he has composition hands and a stuffed cloth body.
His head is most interesting with a black molded
mustache--a regular salty-dog mustache--and hair
molded down rather long over his ears. He is wear­
ing a full dress uniform, complete with belt and
sword. This doll was found in the bottom of a trunk
when Mrs. Slout's sister bought an entire household
of things in El Paso.
,
Following the Grand Haven show Mrs. Slout will
go to Springfield, Mo., for a September show, fol­
lowed by shows in Peoria, QL , Topeka and Witch­
itaw, Kan. Then back to Michigan for the Great
Lakes show at the Masonic Temple in Detroit on
October 19, 20, 21 and 22. The next week she will
be at the Civic Center in Lansing for shows on the
29th, 30th and 31st.
Among the many hundreds of visitors who have at­
tended her shows are Audrey Meadows and Liberace.
Back in the tent show days Mrs. Slout recalls that
she and Mr. Slour were always dealing with temper-

aments. But it's the same with antique dealers. The
actor doesn't think the part fits him, the antique
dealer doesn't like the spot she has selected for him
to display his collection.
In discussing what constitutes a genuine antique
Mrs. Slout says it is a matter of opinion, rather than
the age of an article. "Some feel an article has to
be 150 or 200 years old, " says Mrs. Slout. "Cut
glass is definitely not that old, but it’s one of the
most collecuble things that people look for and it
brings big prices. Art glass, which may'be just a
little toothpick holder, will sell for perhaps $300 or
$400, and it was definitely made since 1880 or '90,
or even 1900. It wasn't made in big quantities, is
fragile and there is little left, so prices are high.
Hand painted China, no older than 75 or 80 years,
is a collector's item now. So I would say that the
scarcity of an item is the way to gauge the value. "
Each year--in fact each show--the trends differ.
"One time a dealer will bring mostly china and
glass. The next time he may bring tn a vanload of
furniture. It depends mostly on what's on the mar­
ket. "
"And there are lots of imports. I have a number
of dealers who go to the far corners of the world sev-

eral times a year and bring back collector items.
Some of these are very, very old.”
"Prices vary greatly too. I had one dealer, who,
above all things, baa postal cards, and you'd be
surprised at some of the prices these would bring, es­
pecially if they had the address and stamp on. I
have some dealers who carry a lot of primitives,
real early American things, button hooks and but­
tons, and some of these buttons bring maybe 15d or
maybe $150:'
"Trends of the public also influence the market
One year it may be 'Gone With The Wind' lamps,
or, like a couple of years ago it was rocking chairs,
the influence of the late President Kennedy. It was
very amusing. Every dealer had at least one or two
rocking chairs, and they all sold. Every one. This
last year it was brass, and this last circuit of shows
I noticed early American brass and copper and art
glass were very good. I predict this year the trend
will also be copper brass and early American. ”
Anywhere from 30 to 70 antique dealers set up
displays in Mrs. Slout's shows, and each show is an
interesting, challenging affair, yet a satisfactory
experience.

Bids awarded for school supplies
The board of education of the
Maple Valley school district met
in special session Monday eve­
ning in the office of Supt Car­
roll J. Wolff.
Bids on gasoline, fuel oil,
milk, fleet insurance and on the
sale of the school bus garage
were opened and action taken.
There were three bids on gas­
oline and fuel oil, submitted by
Standard Oil, Sinclair and Leon­
ard. The bids were exception­
ally close, however Standard Oil
with the low bid of. 12.5 cents
was given the contract on gaso­
line. Leonard, with the low bid
of . 11.10, less one per cent for
30 days, was awarded the fuel
oil contract.
Lockshore and Joppie Dairies
turned in bids for milk. Joppie
was the low bidder with a figure
of . 0575 cents for white milk
and their bid was accepted by
the board.
Farm Bureau insurance com­
pany was okayed on the bus
fleet insurance bid. The amount
specified on the 18 buses total­
ed $1,551.33 plus $14.03 for
each driver training car.
In comparing costs of milk,
gasoline and fuel oil with last
year it was noted milk was

THE NASHVILLE NEWS

slightly higher while gasoline
and fujl oil costs were slightly
less. '
In other business transactions
the board approved the transfer
of $4,869.37 to the payroll ac­
count.
The Athletic Association has
been fdoting the expense of
lights on the athletic fields
which runs in the neighborhood
of $700 a year. For a period of

one year, when it is hoped they
will no longer need any assis­
tance, the board approved pay­
ing for the lights out of the gen­
eral funds, The assistance was
given since the athletic depart­
ment has had to spend money
for new uniforms, and they will
also be paying the teachers a
small fee for selling tickets, and
other duties connected with
sport activities.

Hartwell home looted
Thieves broke into the home
of Mr. and Mrs. Ray Hartwell on
Guy Road Sunday morning and
took three guns, but left the
home in complete shambles.
This is the second time within a
month that their home has been
entered and things stolen.
The breaking Sunday occurred
sometime between 9:30 and a­
bout noon, while the Hartwells
were attending churcit
When the Hartwells arrived
home from church they discov­
ered the furniture tipped over
and scattered around the house.
Beds had been overturned and
the bedding strewn about the
bedrooms. Closets had been
emptied and the contents, cloth­
ing, etc. thrown in a pile on
the floor.
The intruders had gone up in­
to the attic part of the house
and forced trunks open and emp­
tied them, apparently in a
search for money. Boxes
of
clothing and other items stored
in the attic were dumped and
scattered about the area.
Three guns, a rifle, shotgun* .
and a pistol were taken from the *
home, but the Hartwells could
not immediately ascertain wheth­
er anything else was missing.
The State Police immediately
began an investigation taking
fingerprints and making photo­
graphs of the damage. A Police
dog led a State Policeman on a
trail to where a car apparently
had been parked behind the barn.
Police found a blanket spread
out on some hay in a bam be ­
hind the house. It was thought
that perhaps the thieves had kept
watch of the house from this
point. There was evidence that
they had eaten melons there.
Neighbors helped the Hart­
wells put their house back in
order.

Attends Workshop
'Rayfiartwell points to some of the debris scattered about the floor
of the. attic of his house which was looted by thieves. The looting
took place Sunday, while the Hartwells were attending church. The
thieves left the house littered with the contents of closets and dress­
er*--News Photo

By ELMER E. WHITE SEC'Y
MICHIGAN PRESS ASSOCIATION

Can some traffic deaths be
blamed on the state’s Circuit
Courts? A check of last year 's
records makes this a pertinent
question.
Under Michigan law a driver
with series of violations within a
certain time can be called in for
re-examination by the Secretary
of State's office. If facts war­
rent it in the view of these exam­
iners, the driver's license can
be suspended or revoked.

The motorist can appeal to a
regular board. If he is not satis­
fied with the result, he has the
right to appeal to the Circuit
Court.
During the first five months of
1966, nearly 11,000 drivers who
had their licenses suspended or
revoked by the Driver Improve­
ment Section took their cases to
appeal boards. About 4,400
were not successful in regaining
the privilege to drive legally.
But the boards restored the right
to drive in 51,8% of the cases.

Some 71% of those who ap­
pealed to Circuit Judges last
year were successful in regain­
ing their licenses. (Records for
1966 are not yet available.)
This means that Circuit Jud­
ges have considered evidence
against drivers who have been
ticketed frequently and which
has been reviewed by a body
which specializes in such con­
siderations. Then, in nearly
three-fourths of the cases, the
judges restored the driving priv­
ilege.
It also means that something
is wrong with the arresting and
reviewing procedure or that
Circuit Judges have been very
lenient.

The public has an interest,
and it isn't watching out very
well for itself. Mr. Citizen
should ask himself: How safe
are our roads if more than half
the drivers with records bad e­
nough to warrant suspension or
revocation can have the privi­
lege of driving restored?

LOOK

Because auto insurance rates
are concerned with the kind of
driven on the road, statistics
cited here can be considered
one of the several factors i n fluencing higher rates.
But if the * average" man does
not care about the quality of
driven enough to make a fuss
about it, it is hard to see how
the situation will be improved.

COMMON PROBLEM
Tight labor supply dictates
changes to attract the help that
is needed, the State Civil Ser­
vice Commission has learned.
An increase in available jobs
and a boost in personnel turn­
over have coupled with the generaUy good national economic
situation to make placement
difficult in many areas.
The problem continues to ex­
ist despite a generous pay boost
averaging six per cent and a
pay-for-overtime policy recent­
' jy adopted for civil servants.
These nave helped relieve some
of the personnel problems, how­
ever.
Facing the need to attract
more people to sure job vacan­
cies, the Civil Service Depart­
ment has taken several steps of
a semi-temporary nature.
Direct recruiting in high
schools and colleges has been
sharply increased. Citizenship
and other minimum requirements
have been waived in some job
classifications.
Another change has been the
almost unheard-of hiring of peo­
ple at above tne minimum rate
m certain job classes where se­
vere shortages of personnel ex­
isted.

Still another effort aimed at
getting more applicants for state
jobs was the opening in Lansing
of a recruiting office half-days
on Saturday. By this change, the
department hopes to reach peo­
ple who would not be inclined
to take time off from present
jobs but might be seeking new
employment on their day off.
It will be some time before
»
the trial of Saturday hours shows
results, if any.
Ultimate hope is that this and
other measures will enable the
department to fill its critical va­
cancy areas, such as male at­
tendant nurses, institution work­
ers, supervisors and housemoth­
ers at the boys' and girls train­
ing schools, and correction of­
ficers at Jackson Prison.

MICHIGAN PRESs ASSOCIATION

CREED FOR YOUTH
Individual and group efforts
by teenagers to improve ■ their
image as members of the com­
munity are often buried among
reports of teen rowdyism.
The Youth Advisory Council,
65 young people brought togeth­
er by the Michigan Youth Com­
mission. hopes to reverse this
unfortunate trend through wide
distribution and use of its "Creed
for the Youth of Michigan."
Written at the request of Gov.
George Romney, the seven-para­
graph creed poetically describes
ute highest of ideals in the var­
ious areas of daily life. As Rom­
ney noted, it provides "adults
as well a set of guiding princi­
ples worthy of study, discussion
and action. "
Touching on moral obliga lions, family relations, teen-a­
dult contacts, educational val-

ues. government responsibili­
ties, religious tolerance, ana e­
qual opportunity, the creed was
written by a small committee
of the Youth Advisory Council,
studied, and rewritten over near­
ly two years by the entire group.
The committee which presen­
ted the creed to the Governor
emphasized it might need ad­
justment in future yean but is
designed to "help the youth of
today" and be adaptable to meet
the changing needs of tomor­
row s youth.

TAX REDUCTION?
Good news for the many mo­
torists who balked at paying $1
extra when they registered autos

Ha.e says me umnsureo motor­
ist accident claims fund is in
good financial rendition with
me money-collected this year.
He will recommend the legis­
lature require contribution to
the fund only by the insured
driven in the future.
Any change in the law elim inating the SI fee to insured
driven would not take effect un­
til the issuance of 1968 license
plates.

Sound reserves established in
the fund this year are expected
to hold up against the number
of claims anticipated in the next
several yean. Hare reports.
The Secretary also will re­
commend a raise in the limit
now imposed on each claim.
Motorists who fail to carry in­
surance on their vehicles would
still pay the $35 fee per regis­
tration, continuing to bolster
the fund until they buy theirown
insurance and reimbuning the
fund if claims are filed against
them.

Insured motorists poured some
$3,723,017 into the fund at $1
each while more than 160,000
drivers without insurance con­
tributed over $5.6 million into
it.
"Hare estimates there are a­
bout 200,000 uninsured driven
in the state, most of whom will
be found by the end of the cur­
rent registration year.
"We might not catch up to
all of the uninsureds, but every
day some are apprehended in
other infractions and their slight
of the $35 uninsured fee comes
to light", he said.

TICKET SHORTAGE
Barring a court decision over­
turning present law, only three
political parties will be on Mich­
igan's ballot in November.
Only the Socialist Labor Party
succeeded in its petition drive
to gain ballot placement. Un­
der the law petitions must con­
tain the signatures of a mini­
mum of 1 'per cent of the votes
cast in the proceeding general
election for the successful sec­
retary of state candidate.
The two major parties, Dem­
ocrats and Republicans, gain a
place on the ballot automati­
cally.

Prohibition Party officials in­
stituted a challenge to this law
and nominated candidates to be
ready in the event of success.
This party, formerly a regular
on-the ballot, also fell short
for the 1964 election.
The law regarding minor par­
ty qualification has not always
kept the ballot short.

In 1960 five minor parties
qualified to give Michigan) voten the widest choice since 1938
when six groups joined Demo­
crats and Republicans on the bal­
lot.
Votes drawn by the minority
groups have never been a real
threat to the major party can­
didates, however. In 1960 the
five gubernatorial candidates
together picked up only 10,302
votes among more than 3.2 mil­
lion votes cast in the election.

It appears popular these days
to talk about food prices and
speculate on reasons why every­
thing costs more.
Such speculation is only be­
ginning according to many ag­
ricultural experts who predict
that food prices, especially those
of fresh fruits and vegetables,
are going to skyrocket in months
ahead, to a point well ahead of
the 5 per cent increases which
have already caused politicians
so much worry in an election
year.
"They haven't seen anything
yet," according, to Harry Foster,
who heads the Processing Veg­
etable Crops Division of the
Michigan Agricultural Coopera­
tive Association (MACMA)-and who predicts that rises in
food prices will be sharp.

Much of the increase is tied
to the rising cost of labor, ac­
cording to Foster, who sees a
direct connection between
Michigan's ranking as the na­
tion's number-one labor cost
state and what is happening in
the supermarkets.
Foster points out that labor
costs currently accounts for
upward of 50 percent of the to­
tal value of most fruit and veg­
etable crops in some crops, has
reached a peak of sixty percent
"The fanner is paying industrial
wages for relatively unskilled
help, and he furnishes that help
with free housing, something no
other industry must do," Foster
says.
"This is occurring at a time
when social welfare programs

Almost all prut it margin nas
been squeezed out of agricul­
ture. the farm leader reels, and
while the costs of nearly every­
thing needed by a farmer to
produce a crop has doubled in
price, the farmer's share has
either stayed static or actually,
dwindled.
"A strong agriculture is in the
public interest," Foster says,
suggesting that farmers work to­
gether to build sound marketing
and market information programthat give farmers more “say’ in
the sale of his product and re­
turn to him more of the final
market price. I

�It is too bad we don't keep
closer track of our friends.

The other day Dr. White and
Harold Norris were out for a
friendly game of golf. As they
were teeing up for a fairly long
hole a cute, friendly little kit­
ten joined up with them. The
kitten sat and watched as they
drove off and then followed them
down the fairway. All during the
play the little fellow kept his
eye on Dr. White and no doubt
be appraised the situation and
decided that Harold needed some
help because be waited on the

Congressman Paul Todd seem­
ed real impressed with our river.
He said he does some skin div­
ing and that it would be fun to
dive in the good old Tbomapple.
When I pointed out the
weeds and stuff he admitted that
the going would be kinda tough
down there.

ball with real authority and it
headed for the bole. Just as the
ball was about to drop into the
cup the little kitten rushed a­
cross the green and cuffed the
ball out of the way. He then
looked into the bole to see what
was down there. Harold says be
is always kind to animals and
the word must have got around.

Next Monday is Labor Day and
this means a day out of our sched­
ule for getting the paper out. Be­
cause of the holiday we will
have to have our copy for ads
and news by Friday of this week.
Labor Day really does
not
mean a holiday for me at all, it
just means that I re-arrange my
labor.
It also means the end of the
summer, and that is something
I hate to see end. Too soon we
have snow and ice.
For the kids it has a special
meaning too. Right after Labor
Day school starts again and even
&gt; though they are tired of the sum­
mer of goofing off the kids nev­
er seem quite ready for school
One nice thing about this time
of year though, is the football
There is something refreshing a­
bout sitting down to watch a
football game on television and
immediately whamping off to
sleep. That is what my family
accuses me of doing.

This has been old home week
at the Boughtons. Last Saturday
some old friends of ours from
Detroit came to see us and we
spent a pleasant hour or so pass­
ing the time of day. Sunday we
were visited by some old friends
whom we have not seen in years.

He Mid there is no Federal
project right at the moment to
help is with cleaning the river
up. but he indicated that there
may be some in the future. Mr.
Todd also expressed interest in a
canoe trip down the river and I
offered the Boughton canoe for
the trip. Maybe we can get a
whole parade of canoes to come
down tne river with Congressman
Todd. Maybe this way we can
let people know what a beautiful
river we have.

The big Labor Day weekend is coming up. School
is about to open. Football players are beginning to
practice and the nights are getting cooler! Guess all
of this makes us think of fall although some of the
finest weather of the year is really ahead of us.

Canning peaches are not going to be very cheap
this year and the crop is far from being a large one.
The Red Havens are about all through but we will
have the later varieties of Havens as they come
along.

You'll be seeing some new faces around the store.
Sandy has gone back to school and Penny Cogswell
is breaking in on the check-out Gordon Reid is
going out for football this year and Bill Lindsley and
Dan Bolton will be working part time at the store,
also this fall Ron Barrette will be going to college
and we will lose another good boy from our store,
but we are happy he is going on to school

Answers About Epilepsy
Provided by WSU Specialist

.

Dr. Gilroy watches as a technician demonstrates with a small
patient the use of the “brain-wave” machine.

DETROIT — How does one
recognize epilepsy? What is
known about its causes and
treatment as of 1966?
Answers to these questions,
often sought by families and
friends of persons with epi­
lepsy. are of special concern
to a group of doctors working
on research in this disease at
the neurology department of
Wayne State University's
School of Medicine.
Epilepsy affects about one
per cent of the U.S. population
and may occur at any age.
Some causes of it are congeni­
tal defects, brain injuries, head
injuries and brain tumors. In
addition, an area of research
designated as "metabolic ab­
normalities" is now under ex­
ploration. Metabolism is the
life process within the cell. In­
vestigation of brain metabo­
lism in the epileptic patient is
being conducted at WSU by
measuring changes in blood
chemistry during seizures.
In its nature, the generalized
epileptic seizure is a com­
pletely uncontrolled massive
electrical discharge, much
trical discharge in the nervous
system. But epilepsy does not
always show itself as a gener­
alized convulsion. Sometimes
«e seizures are minor. In
ese, patients may exhibit
brief "staring spells," stop
talking, show blank expres­
sions or drool.
“In terms of treatment there
are no recent developments of
THE NASHVILLE NEWS

a startling nature, but the past
three decades have brought
much to reassure persons with
epUepsy and their families,"
says Dr. John Gilroy, who
specializes in the area. Effec­
tive to complete control of
seizures may be obtained in 85
per cent of patients."
Improvement in the control
and understanding of epilepsy
has been accomplished by the
use of the electroencephalo­
graph or "brain wave ma­
chine, and by the development
of anticonvulsant drugs which
has proceeded steadily dur­
ing the past 50 years. .
The electroencephalograph
is important in diagnosis, es­
pecially in determining the
type of epilepsy. A minor seiz­
ure may be due to “petit mal,"
a mild condition, or may actu­
ally indicate a more general or
serious involvement, known as
"temporal lobe epilepsy,” a
condition which may be comp­
licated by major seizures in
some cases.
' Treatment with drugs must
be continued for a long period
in the majority of cases, and
the patient carefully observed
for the development of side
effects, although these are not
a frequent complication. Dr.
Gilroy points out. In some
cases, different combinations
of the drugs must be tried to
gain optimum control ot-seizures. Along with many other
aspects of epilepsy, the mode
of action of these drugs is still
not completely understood.

Eight-year old lommy was

Mackinac Bridge to the Upper

But Tommy's fears were
quickly replaced with fun. Trav­
el Center personnel got him a
ride around town In a police car
and bought him an ice cream
cone. Then, so that his parents
wouldn't have to cross the toll

gave Tommy a free bus trip

That was just one of the many
daily incidents that make life

Now President Johnson has
said the same thing in a recent
speech which got a lot of atten­

The President said that we
must start thinking along the
lines of rural renewal. He hopes
to see a movement back to the
small town to relieve the big
cities of the influx of popula­
tion they have had of late.
Perhaps we are on the brink
of great things for such places
as our community. Certainly,

The last big week-end of the
summer is over. The kids are
on their way back to school. The
golfers are thinking of putting
the chibs away till next spring.
There is a chill in the air early
in the morning. The autumnal
haze makes the horizon indis­

are on the wing.
As much as I hate the thought

I Might not agree with Mr. Todd's politics at all times,

of the most desirable building spots in the town are along
the river and just maybe there are ways to clean up the

An Editorial
An election involving the Maple Valley School District will be
held on Monday according to some rather spotty and last minute in­
formation obtained by the News office.
The election involves the approval of a reorganization plan for
the Eaton Intermediate School District and concerns residents of the
Maple Valley system because our school is in the Eaton district men­
tioned.
' '
Despite the fact that this concerns Eaton County, voters in the
Maple Valley district are eligible to vote even though they may
live in Barry County.
As a newspaper, we are deeply concerned over the fact that we
were not given information concerning this election.
Carroll Wolff, superintendent of the Maple Valley district was
most cooperative when he learned that we had not been informed
of the election and he gave us what information he had available.
Apparently Mr. Wolff assumed that information on the election
would come from the office of the Eaton County board involved. It
would seem quite logical for Mr. Wolff to make this assumption.
When Mr. Wendell Anderson, secretary of the board of the Eaton
Intermediate School District was contacted he indicated that the
information should have been supplied by almost any office but his.
It was Mr. Anderson's contention that his legal responsibility end­
ed with the posting of notices in the district involved. Mr. Anderson
said that he couldn't be expected to be a public information bureau.
There is, it would seem, a moral duty on the part of the county
administration to keep the public informed, over and above the
cold legal posting of notice.
Mr. Anderson further indicated that he thought the public was suf­
ficiently informed by publicity from other counties where such
elections have taken place.
It would seem that his reasoning is faulty here. Of some ten peo­
ple coming into our office late Tuesday afternoon, only two knew
there was to be an election. Both of these two were teachers who
obtained the information only on Tuesday morning at a teacher's
meeting. One of the teachers thought that residents of Barry
County could not vote on the proposition.
Part of the job of administering any public office is good public
information. A good administrator is a good public informant.
As Mr. Anderson said, he cannot tell each individual concerned
personally about the election, and that is precisely our point...
With good public information disseminated through the newspapers
and the radio stations in the area, this would not be necessary.
The News .would like to be a link in the chain of information
from public administrators to the public they serve. We can not a­
gree with Mr. Anderson that the information should have come from
a lower level than his.
When this information is not immediately available to the public
from the top administrator involved, rumors spread, information
transmitted is often incorrect and the bewildered public starts to
wonder whether or not it has intentionally been uninformed.
Given the facts, the American public has a great capacity for
making the correct decision in an election. The facts should come
from the highest authority in an easy flow, and in ample time for
the public to appraise them and to act on them.

states this year in enacting leg­
islature to help preserve natural
beauty along the roadways.
A highway billboard bill pass­
ed by me legislature was the re­
sult or agreement between the
advertising industry and the high­
way department, me latter large­
ly representing the viewpoint of
me nature lovers. It actually
had support of the larger b i 11 board companies.

Under the new law, not fully
effective until 1968, many of
the scattered signs now in place
will come down.

Billboards of specified size
will be allowed only in business
areas, unless the signs give direc­
tions, mark historic spots, or ad­
vertise a business or activity on
the property.
Motorists will no longer see a
beer or supermarket billboard
five miles from town unless the
store stands next to the road.
Provisions of the bill allow for
a sizeable number of signs with­
in the designated business areas,
however.

Legislators debated various
forms of billboard regulations
during the past six years. ’
It was not until this year that
the highway department and out­
door advertising industry got to­
gether on legislation, now re­
quired to comply with the feder­
al highway beautification act.
Doubts nave been expressed
whether Michigan's new law will
meet federal standards, some of
which are yet to be spelled out.
Failure carries the threat of the
withholding of federal funds.
Highway and advertising
spokesmen are adopting a waitand-see attitude.

CRIME ACTION
Disclosure by two public offic&lt;
ials of recent threats on their
lives focused attention on one

of the newest units of state gov­
ernment; the State Commission
on Crime, Delinquency and
Criminal Administration.
The commission, like several
before it, was appointed to do a
specific job, but likely will be
in existence for a considerable
time because of the breadth of
its assignment.
Reports from Attorney Gener­
al Frank J. Kelley and Wavne
County Judge and Grand Juror
Edward Piggins that their lives
were threatened because of their
anti-crime activities will cer­
tainly become part of the com­
mission's concern.

that some progress might be
forthcoming.

NEED YOUTH
,
Part of the emphasis during
the 1967 Michigan Week obser­
vance will be on youth.
y.
Robert Miller, chairman of
the Greater Michigan Founda­
tion's Council on youth program,
convinced the entire sponsoring
organization of the annual brag
week that there is considerable
need for this emphasis.
He has called for a young peo­
ple’s conference in every Mich­
igan community on Youth Day,
the final day of Michigan Week.

The annual Signature Swins
normally held the first Friday*
night of the school season, ha

State Stone of Michigan

Rock hounds know each of these handsome little nuggets collectively as the "Petoskey
stone,* ’ the popular name coined because this fossilized specimen is commonly found in
the Petoskey area. Picked last year as Michigan’s official state stone, its claim to
fame is in its distinct appearance, die way it may be carved with simple tools into
attractive jewelry, and the fact that it is commonly found iq this state. Origin of this
prized stone is traced hack' to Devonian seas that covered Michigan’s Lower Peninsula
about 350 million years ago. Petoskey stones found here today consist of massive
colonies of corals which were formed in
ina sizes during the Devonian
across the Great

Through CROP, Michigan people are providing four heifers
and one bull for the village of Kafumba in rhe Kwilu
Province, Congo.
The five beef-type animals will come
from • herd suited to the climate, developed by a Belgian
farmer-business man. Part of the herd is shown here

Like in hundreds of other villages, Kafumba cattle were all
destroyed by Communist-led rebels in 1964.

THE VERMONTVILLE ECHO

�I cy drops of rain rattled against the reeds of the duck blind, and
sailed with the howling wind to beat at the man and the boy and
the black, shivering dog.
The boy looked at the dog and felt himself shiver beneath the
heavy mackinaw that his father had wrapped around him. He could
not tell if the shivering was from excitement or cold, because it
had started In the warm darkness of his room when his father had
shaken his shoulder and said, “Come on, Tim. It’s going to be a
fine morning for ducks.”
They ate breakfast together, and the shivering deep inside the
boy was the tremor of faintly stirring manhood that was spawned
by the comradeship with his father and the hot coffee that was
strange in his mouth.
In the black early morning, they had driven to the marsh and
rowed across the open water to the blind. They tossed decoys out
to bob up and down on the dark waves, and then they hid the boat
and sloshed into the blind to sit humped over on low stools with
the shivering dog between them.
The wild, forlorn cry of a Canada goose whipped past them on
the wind. The man remembered a night long ago when he stood in
a farm yard as a boy and stared into a starlite October sky to first

feel the nebulous emotions that the honk of the mighty bird stirs.
He felt it again now, and the boy felt it with him.
"Geese," the boy whispered, and his father nodded.
The dog whined suddenly, and then the man said, "Here come
some bluebills, Tim. Get ready.”
The boy slid the mitten from his right hand and pulled the 16gauge single-shot closer to him. He was not shivering now. He was
warm. He watched his father stand suddenly to fire his shotgun at
small black shapes that hurtled past like cannon balls.
One of the shapes splashed down into the water, and the dog
bounded out and swam back to the blind with he duck in its mouth.
The boy was ashamed that he had not shot his gun like he
should have, but his father said quickly, “It takes a while to get used
to shooting at anything that flies as fast as a duck.”
Next time the ducks came, the boy did shoot, but he knew even
before the gun recoiled against his shoulder that he would miss.
Then a flock of mallards pumped up the marsh and circled
once to look at the decoys.
“They’re your birds,” the boy's father said. “Let them come in
close.”
The boy blinked back wind-tears as he watched the ducks
circle again and set their wings in front of the decoys. They were
close now, but the boy waited until his father whispeYed, “OK!”
He stood then, aimed the shotgun and fired. A duck flopped
down onto the water, and the dog leaped out after it.

The bpy sat down. His legs were weak. He glanced at his father
and returned the man’s wide grin with a hesitant smile. The dog
came in with the duck, a fat mallard drake, and the boy felt a pang
of regret that he would come to know as a part of successful hunting.
The dog dropped the bird and shook himself, sending a spray
of cold water over the hunters. They laughed together as they
brushed the moisture from their faces.
They shared a cup of coffee, and the man talked to the boy.
“You know, Tim, we’re lucky we can hunt ducks today,” he said.
“Why?” asked the boy.,
“Well, it wasn’t too many years ago that there weren’t enough
ducks in this part of the country for anyone to hunt.”
“What happened to them?”
“Several things. The story starts way back in Grandpa’s day
when there were great clouds of ducks all over the countfy. There
weren’t even any hunting laws until 1918, and then you could still take 25 ducks and eight geese every day for 100 days.
"Then people started draining lots of wetlands that ducks
,
need for nesting, and then along came the dry years of the 1930’s
when many of the remaining marshes dried up. The number of
ducks dropped to such a low point that people realized that if some­
thing wasn’t done, we probably wouldn’t have any ducks.”

�"What did they do?” the boy asked, rubbing the dog's wet head.
“For one thing,” the man continued, “the government started
buying marshes so that they could be saved for nesting area, in 1934
they started the duck stamp program to finance the wetland buying.
“Ducks came back in good numbers, and then in the late 1950’s
there was another dry period that knocked them for a loop. In 1961
Congress passed a law that set up a loan fund of $105 million for
speeding up wetland buying. This program is supposed to be fin­
ished by 1968, but there are some people who say it isn’t moving
the way it should. Anyway, these things have given the ducks a big
lift.”
“But this isn’t government marsh, is it?’’ the boy asked. “I
thought it belonged to Mr. Jackson, the farmer where we parked
the car.”
“It does. In fact, most of the wetland is still privately owned,
and for this reason there is a lot.of strong feeling that the land
owner should somehow be more rewarded for providing nest area
for ducks that are appreciated by everyone.
“One thing that was done was to
start a program whereby the government
helped the landowner build farm and
ranch ponds. There are more than two
million of these ponds now, and many
of them are used by waterfowl.
“Our government also signed trea­
ties- with Canada and Mexico to work
out cooperative protection for the birds
*that migrate across all of North America.
“The reason that it is important for
us to do all we can now to save ducks is
that in 30 years there will be about 300
million people in this country, and this
is going to mean a lot of people who at
least want to see ducks, if not hunt
them the way we are today.”
A duck swung suddenly overhead,
and the man and boy acted instinctive­
ly, bringing their guns to bear on the
bird.
“Hold it,” the man said, “that’s
one of the protected species.”
They watched as the duck winged
out of sight in the clearing sky.
“Some species of ducks are hard­
er hit than others during periods of dry
weather," the boy’s father said, "and
that’s why we have different bag limits
on different ducks.”
It was- mid - forenoon now. The rain
■Chad stopped, the wind had died, and
the ducks had stopped flying. The man
and the boy left the marsh and drove to
a river that wound down through an al­
der valley.

"We’ll try some jump shooting,” the man said. “It will give us
a chance to shake the kinks out of our legs from sitting in the blind.”
They moved slowly up opposite sides of the river. A trio of
wood duck drakes exploded up out of the stream on the boy’s side of
the river. The light glistened on their plumage as they squeaked put
of range over a grove of oak trees.
The boy's gun had stopped halfway to his shoulder, halted by
the flash of beauty before him and by the doubt of proper bird iden­
tification that his father had impressed him with.
The man watched his son stand immobile for long seconds
after the birds were out of sight.
“He’s going to be a fine duck hunter,” the man said, but only
loud enough for the dog to hear him.
“They’re sure pretty, aren’t they, Son,” the man said in a louder
voice.
They sure are,” the boy said, and he stepped forward with new
confidence and understanding of the hunt.

I didn’t believe Andy when he insisted
the new Remington Model 1100 automatic
had iess“kick”than any other shotgun going.
So we bet on it. He won. .
Andy really knew what he was
talking about.
He let me try his 12-gauge
Remington Model 1100, and I
could have sworn I was shoot­
ing a 20! All the power is there.
But Remington’s new system of
gas operation handles recoil so
efficiently I hardly felt it.
Best of all, I was able to get
off faster, more accurate second
shots. With less “kick,” the 1100
didn’t “climb” and throw me off
target.
And the balance was so right,
it let the 1100 point and swing
as if it were part of my arm.
Then Andy really opened my
eyes with the inside story of how
the 1100 is built to last longer

than other automatics. He ex­
plained that the. receiver is ma­
chined from a solid block of ordnancest^el. Key parts are beefed
up for greater strength. Work­
ing surfaces are highly polished
to reduce friction. And points of
greatest impact get special buf­
fer “cushions”. No wonder the
1100 lasts longer!
Same dependability holds
true for the outside, too. The
custom-checkered American
walnut stock is protected by
Du Pont RK-W “bowling-pin”
finish—toughest ever put on a
gun. And the highly polished
metal finish is extra rust-resist­
ant.
I have my own Model 1100

now. Holds up to five shots,
handles all 2%-inch loads (even
baby magnums) without adjust­
ment. Mine is a 12-gauge, but
you can get a 16 or 20, too. All
standard chokes and barrels.
Plus trap, skeet and magnum
models, and the new deer model
with rifle sights.
Expensive? Not at all. Prices
start at just $154.95*.

WHY HOT GO WAY SOUTH ... TO SOUTH AMERICA
BY JERRY G CURREN

1 he major South American travel season is fast approaching

with a record number of travelers expected to visit our hemis­
pheric neighbors for the first time.
And, nothing could be more satisfying on a wintery day
than taking a jet to join the Farm and Home tour to South
America, If it has been your practice in the past to spend a
month or two in the warmer climates of the United States ...
Arizona or Florida or Texas or California . . . then this year
dare to be a little different and spend 25 days with Farm and
Home Section on a tour to South America.
You have your choice, you know, of departure dates. You
can leave on December 11, January 15 (this departure date also
coincides with the Carnival Time in Rio de Janeiro), February
5, March 5, or April 9.
The second through the fifth day we spend in Lima, Peru.
You will take a look at the modern residential districts and stop
at historic Olive Grove and other points of interest Another
afternoon of your Lima visit will be devoted to the Inca Ruins
of Pachacamac located on a bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean
and the National Archaeological Museum.
The sixth through the eighth day will find you in Cuzco.
We’ll fly to Cuzco on a morning flight from Lima over the
mighty Andes mountains. Cuzco was the one time capitol of
the most advanced pre-Columbus civilizations in Latin Ameri­
ca. While in Cuzco, we will stop at the Inca Fortress of Sacsayhuaman as well as drive out of town to visit the Inca Baths at
Tambomachay. Then we will take a full day trip by train to
visit the mysteries of Machupicchu. These ruins are located
in the semi-tropical headwater section of the Amazon River.

The ninth through eleventh day we will leave Lima by air
for Santiago, Chile along the Andes Mountains. In Santiago,
we will stay at the Carrera Hilton. You will have ample time
for shopping and relaxing. These visits will include a stop at
cool Santa Lucia park; a drive to the top of the Cerro San Cris­
tobal where you will see a spectacular view of the city and the
,
foothills of the Andes. Then a full day’s trip will take you to
Chile’s major seaport of Valparaiso and the beach resort of
Vina del Mar.
The twelfth through the sixteenth day will find you in
Buenos Aires after a spectacular flight over the Andes from
Santiago. While in Buenos Aires, your home will be the Plaza
Hotel located on the tree filled San Martin Plaza.
.
Those who want, while we are in Buenos Aires, can take an
optional side trip to the Lake District of Argentina which will
only cost $195 additional per person. This is an area of snow- -•
capped mountains, deep blue lakes, green forests and gleaming
glaciers. We’ll fly to the Lake District and have comprehensive
sightseeing of the entire area.
The seventeenth through the nineteenth day will find us all
in Sao Paulo. We will fly up north from Buenos Aires over the
green fertile cattle region of Uruguay and Southern Brazil to
this most dynamic city in South America. This is the industrial,
commercial, and nerve center of the largest country in the south­
ern hemisphere.
At, Sao Paulo, those who wish can take another optional
side trip for an additional $125 per person to the world famous
Iguassu Falls. This is an overnight trip to the second largest
falls in the world. You will fly from Sao Paulo to the falls near ■» "
the border of Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay.
. The twentieth through the twenty-fourth day, after a short
flight from Sao Paulo, will find us in Rio de Janiero. Your ar­
rival will be at sunset, a dramatic time to make your entrance
into this picturesque set city around its noted emerald blue bay
with the many gray granite peaks shooting out of deep green
foliage. Your hotel in Rio de Janerio will be the modern new
Leme Palace, located on Copacabana Beach. While in Rio, you
will be taken to the top of the city’s most noted landmark, Sugar
Loaf Mountain.

�What to leave out
of your trip
to South America.
Braniff International's 29 day tour of
South America is well worth the time.
Unfortunately, not everyone has
the time.
So we called in our tour director
to see if he could do a little trimming.
"Perhaps we could leave out the
Gold Museum and the Salt Cathedral
in Bogota,” we asked cautiously.
"Could you face your passengers
after having done a thing like that?”
he said coldly.
"Well, then, how about saving time
on the Amazon? After all, Americans
are used to seeing Indians.”
"Naked Indians?” He shot us a
knowing glance. "Now, you
could bypass the Inca ruins in
Peru.”
"We could?” we asked hopefully.
"Yes. But you would have
to be monsters to do it.
Ignoring all that culture and history.

Shame on you."
"But—” we stammered.
"Now I would strike Argentina.
But then I’ve been through
Argentina 86 times. Your passengers
would have a perfect right to
strike you.”
At this point our patience was
growing thin. "Surely, there
must be something you could
eliminate,” we cried.
"Try me.”
"Montevideo?” we pleaded.
"I wouldn’t hear of it. Such a
charming seaport.”
"S3o Paulo?” we begged.
"The fastest growing metropolis
in the world? Out of the question.’
"Santos?” we implored.
"And miss the sight of those
glorious orchids?
You have no soul."

"But don’t you
have any recommendations
at all,” we asked breathlessly as he
rose to leave.
"Yes,” he said. "By all means, add
two days in Rio.”
Note: Ever since our tour director
became our former tour director,
we have been working on a
17 day tour of South America. It’s
almost as good as our 29 day tour,
only 12 days shorter.

didn’t leave out, write:

BY BETTY STERN

Can you imagine a home without a cookie jar full of cookies for little ones

coming in from outside or for teenagers around the kitchen? I can’t. But if
you’re as busy as most Moms with youngsters, cookies need to be quick and
easy to bake. Bar cookies are the answer!
Bars cut down on preparation time — there’s no dropping individual
cookies by teaspoonfuls or shaping tiny quantities of dough into small round
shapes. Simply spread the cookie batter evenly with a spatula in the rec­
ommended size pan and your cookies are ready to go into the oven. Some
need frosting, but many can be served straight from, the oven.

Sunny Italy is the home of Mozzarella cheese, olive oil, tomatoes, pep­
pers of all kinds, artichokes, and eggplant. And Italians learned long ago
how to use them all in mouth-watering dishes so characteristic of this
European peninsula country. Recipes included here are designed to bring
a cross-section sample of Italian cooking right to your American dining

room.

Italians love good food. And they spend long hours at mealtime. Sea­
foods of all kinds are popular. Vegetables and salads are served at almost

every lunch and dinner. Except on festive occasions, desserts are simple
— most meals end with fresh fruit and cheese, eaten together.
LASAGNA
Tomato-Meat Sauce:
1 pound hamburger
1 bay leaf
1. small onion, diced
Salt
small amount margarine
1 large can tomatoes, use juice
54 pound lasagna noodles
2 tablespoons salt
(3ft cups)
,
1 can tomato puree (IVs cups)
2 teaspoons margarine
I can tomato paste
1 egg, hard cooked
Vs pound Mozzarella cheese
V&gt; green pepper, diced
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese,
Vs cup celery, diced
grated
3 garlic cloves (left whole)
Vs teaspoon pepper
54 teaspoon ground oregano
Vs pound Ricotta cheese (Vi cup)
54 teaspoon marjoram
Prepare Tomato-Meat Sauce first, allowing 354 hours to cook—this can be done the
afternoon before. Brown meat and onion in margarine, drain off excess fat Add
other ingredients and simmer about three hours. Remove garlic before using.
Bring to a boil in a large saucepan 4 to 6 quarts water; add salt and margarine.
Gradually add lasagna noodles. Boil rapidly uncovered about 15 minutes or until
noodles are tender. (Test tenderness by pressing a piece against side of pan with
fork or spoon.) Drain noodles by pouring into a colander or large sieve. Pour a
small amount of the sauce into an 8-inch square baking dish — just enough to
barely coat the bottom. Top with 54 of the noodles — spread out in a thin layer.
Top this with half of the Mozzarella cheese. Then add 54 of the hard cooked egg,
sliced. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese and 54 teaspoon pepper. Top
with about 54 cup Ricotta cheese. Beginning with sauce repeat layering ending
with Ricotta cheese. Top Ricotta cheese with small amount of sauce. Make one
more layer of lasagna noodles, then top with more sauce. You should have some
sauce left over. Bake in 350* oven for about 30 minutes or until mixture is bub­
bling. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes to Kt layers. Cut into 2-inch squares and serve
topped with remaining sauce which has been reheated.

FETTUCINI AMERICANO
3 tablespoons salt
4-6 quarts water
1 pound Fettucini (or spaghetti) noodles
1 cup margarine, melted

Add 3 tablespoons salt to 4 to 6 quarts rapidly
boiling water. Gradually add Fettucini so that
the water continues to boil. Cook uncovered,
stirring occasionally to prevent noodles from
sticking to the pan, for about 15 minutes or un­
til noodles are tender. Drain in colander (rinsing
is not necessary); place in serving casserole and
add the melted margarine, grated Parmesan

GLEANINGS !

There was a time, reports The Mackinaw Valley News

of Minier, Ill., when you could purchase a wife in the Ca­

nary Islands for a 27 foot string of tiny honey bird feath­
ers. This doesn’t sound like too bad a deal if you got a
feather-back guarantee.

The Arenac County Independent of Standish. Mich., de­
fines civilization as a thin veneer that gets thinner the

more it is polished.

Whoever Heard of ironing" in a Dryer?

The Tipton (Ind.) Daily Tribune tells about the English
villagers who thought an estimate of $1,120 was too high
for repair of a church clock, so they did the work them­

selves for 70 cents.
A cooling thought comes from the Toluca (Ill.) Star­

Herald, as it recalls the woman who telephone the weath­
er bureau last winter to report that she had just shoveled
three feet of partly cloudy weather off her front walk.

In order to be equal to the Russians, says the Ellsworth
(Wis.) Record, we would have to slash all paychecks by
three-fourths, destroy 40 million TV sets, and junk 19 of
every 20 of our cars.

"Many a man who misses his anniversary, catches it
later,” reports the Salisbury (Mo.) Press-Spectator.
“Laugh, and the world laughs‘with you,” says the Janes­

ville (Minn.) Argus, “moan and you sell a million records.”

The first vaccination was given to an eight-year-old boy
named James Phipps back in 1796, reports The Platte

(S.D.) Enterprise. Jimmie said the same thing eight-yearold boys are saying about vaccinations today — “Ouch!”

The ideal committee, claims The Angola (Ind.) Herald,
has three members — one dead and one out of town.

The Belvidere (Ill.) Daily Republican tells about the
dude who got married and became sub-dued.
“Being born with a silver spoon in your mouth is no

guarantee of a sterling performance,” says The Dickin­

son (N.D.) Press.
The Lewiston (Ill.) News claims to have overheard the
TV announcer’s son say his prayers thusly: “Bless mom
and dad, oh Lord, and give us this day our slow-baked,
oven-fresh, vitamin enriched bread.”

The Lima (Ohio) News labels this as a horrible
thought: “In a few years, today’s wierdo teenagers will

�"I'm after TDN ... not tonnage"

Automation has been a great help
to Bloch in meeting time and labor
requirements ... his one-man op­
eration produces over 800,000 lbs.
of milk a year, and he's confident
he'll reach 850,000 lbs. in 1966.

Tdn

is becoming far more
important than tonnage to
most livestock-grain farm­
ers. And that includes dairy­
men as well as beef and hog
feeders. Milk producer Rich­
ard Bloch, Plainfield, Wiscon­
sin, is pretty typical:
‘Tm after high energy
feed. That’s what turns out
big milk production," Bloch
says. “I’m not half as inter­
ested in tonnage as I am in
Total Digestible Nutrients.
That’s why I put up most of
my corn as silage, so that I
get as many nutrients as
each acre can deliver.”
_&lt; Bloch’s thinking follows
the same line as many farm­
ers who use corn silage as a
major part of their ration.
These livestock feeders are
casting about for methods to
make a concentrated product
with high energy.
Three different approaches
are currently being used to
achieve this goal: 1. Leave
part of the stalk in the field,
using the center-cut method
or a new attachment which
picks one row and chops the
other. 2. “Soup up’’’ the pro­
tein content of the material
once it is in the silo by add­
ing feed-grade urea and high­
- calcium limestone. 3. Plant a
high-yielding hybrid which
has a short stalk, thereby
producing a high grain con­
tent silage without leaving
any fodder in the field.
The latter is the route'preferred by Bloch: “I was after
more grain per ton of silage,
so I turned to a short stalk
hybrid, DeKalb XL 45. The
higher grain content more
than compensates for the
shorter stalks.
" “In fact, since the short
stalks let me plant a much
higher population and use
more fertilizer, I feel I ac­
tually got more tons of silage
per acre last fall with the
short stalk than I did in pre­
vious years with special si­
lage hybrids. And a lot more
of that tonnage was grain in
the 1965 crop.”
Bloch has plenty of evi­
dence that his high energy
grain rations are paying off.
His Holstein herd is averag­
ing 13,500 lbs. of milk and
508 lbs. of butterfat, almost
• ’twice the U.S. average of
7,885 lbs. of milk and 291 lbs.
of fat The 62 cows he pres­
ently has in production pro­
duced 817,000 lbs. of milk
last year.

Still, Bloch is aiming high­
er: “I’ll be up at least 30,000
lbs. next year. Without a
doubt these 62 cows will pro­
duce 850,000 lbs. of milk.”
In fact, his 110 acres of
corn produced 150 tons more
silage than he needed and
could store last fall. “A year
ago, with fewer cows, I had
to buy over $2,000 worth of
feed,” says Bloch. “But after
harvest last fall, I pocketed
an extra $3,000 in cash from
the surplus silage I was able
to sell at $20 a ton."
As previously stated,
Bloch harvests the majority
of his corn as silage, so most
of his yield figures are in
tons. But on one plot he har­
vested as grain, he averaged
160 bushels of corn an acre.
All of his corn was planted
in 30-inch rows at high popu­
lations and with heavy fer­
tilization.

Bloch was highly impressed
with the results of his 30inch rows. “I feel narrow
rows give additional yields
that are equivalent to what
I could get from farming ex­
tra land. The narrow rows
spread the plants more even­
ly over the ground and allow
higher populations.
‘1 switched to narrow 30inch rows in the spring of ’65
after reading and hearing
about those extra high yields
other farmers were getting,”
explains Bloch. “With the
right hybrids, it works out
fine. Of course, we have a
pretty short growing season
here and have to use an early
maturing corn."
Planting time is usually
around May 7th for Bloch,
but he started planting last
spring’s crop around April
26th. He planted 22,000 ker­
nels per acre in the 30-inch

rows, putting them down in
land that had been broadcast
with 250 lbs. of potash the
previous fall, with an addi­
tional 200 lbs. of 16-48-0 in
the spring. Then he added 90
lbs. of actual nitrogen in
granular form at planting.
Bloch has planted corn on
the same ground for the last
five years with great success.
He tests his soil every two
years, and adds whatever it
requires. He limes his alfalfa
ground regularly, keeping the
soil at a pH level of 6.5.
“I spray 1-Mlbs. of Atra­
zine on my corn ground at
planting time, eliminating
all the hours I used to spend
cultivating. You won’t find a
pigweed or ragweed in my
fields. Considering the hours
of cultivating I no longer
have to do, the herbicide cost
is almost incidental.”
When Bloch took over his

father-in-law’s 200-acre farm
nine years ago, he didn’t
dream he’d be running an op­
eration that might expand
one day to a size larger than
he could comfortably handle.
But, even with a one-man
production of 817,000 lbs. of
milk, he makes ends meet
somehow in time and labor.
Automation has helped, a
good deal — all three of his
silos unload automatically,
and push-button power aug­
ers move feed from the silos
to the bunks.
Bloch is particularly en­
thused about harvesting corn
as high energy silage instead
of just harvesting the grain.
College tests support his
thinking there. One study
showed that 18 tons of corn
silage produces 7,200 lbs. of
TDN and is equal to abqut
100 bushels grain yield in
product.

Read how new Anti-Germ 50, the versatile, low-cost
disinfectant-sanitizer-deodorizer, can make you money.
Infarrowing houses. UseAnti-Germ
50 on floors, walls and bedding be­
fore and after farrowing to insure
a healthful environment for young
animals. Use Anti-Germ 50 on the
sow's udder and flanks before and
after farrowing to reduce chances
of infection and sickness. Disinfect
castration and medication equip­
ment with Anti-Germ 50 to prevent
infection.

In confinement areas. Use Anti­
Germ 50 in pens, on walls, floors
and equipment to insure a sanitary
environment for bred sows, or for
feeder pigs being brought onto the
premises. This practice can help
halt disease before it spreads to
healthy animals...help you.market
better, healthier animals at lower
cost.

In feeding pens and waterers. After
cleaning, disinfect feeding troughs
and waterers with Anti-Germ 50 to
help prevent bacteria buildup that
can cause scours and otherdiseases.
Used in a regular sanitation pro­
gram. Anti-Germ 50 gives positive
algae control in troughs and water
storage areas...adds no unpleasant
odor to water.

In foot baths. Anti-Germ 50's broad
spectrum germicidal activity plus
high hard water tolerance level
make it ideal for use in visitor foot
baths. Used at recommended le­
vels. Anti-Germ 50 kills disease
causing bacteria, viruses and fungi
including Staphylococci, Pseudo­
monas, Streptococci, E. coli and
Salmonella.

The prevention of disease and maintenance of health are critical to the successful
swine operation. Don’t depend on drugs alone. Check these Anti-Germ 50 advantages:
1. Dual quaternary action...higher killing power and
less irritating than chlorine disinfectants.
2. High phenol coefficients, kill dilutions and fungicidal/fungistatic titers. Economical, too. Often less than
half as much Anti-Germ 50 produces the same rate
of kill as other leading products.
3. High hard water tolerance. Mineral salts in hard
water can reduce the rate of kill of disinfectants. Anti­
Germ 50, however, has a hard water tolerance of 850
ppm., gives maximum germicidal activity even in ele­
vated hard water areas.
4. Broader-spectrum germicidal activity. Anti-Germ
50 is effective against a wide range of bacteria, vi­
ruses and fungi which can cause severe problems, in­
cluding Staphylococci. Pseudomonas, Streptococci
and E. coli.
5. Positive deodorant action. Anti-Germ 50 actually

kills many germs that cause decay odors instead of
merely limiting their growth.
6. Safe, non-irritating at use dilutions and concentra­
tions.
7. Stable, non-volatile.
8. Easy-to-apply. Anti-Germ 50 can be used in dip,
spraying and fogging operations.
9. Solubility not affected by pH or flammable solvents.
10. Highly concentrated for use and storage. Forexample, one tablespoon makes 214 gallons of spray for
use in livestock houses.
11. Freezing point: -15° F. (in concentrated form).
12. In fogging, produces a non-tacky, fast-drying, non­
corroding. bactericidal film.
13. Germicidal activity retained up to 180°F. (82.5°C.)
14. Can be used as drinking water sanitizer to keep
water clean, fresh and sweet.

MAPLE VALLEY SCHOOL BUSSES POLISHED AND IN TOP MECHANICAL
SHAPE ARE LINED UP FOR ANOTHER BUSY SCHOOL SEASON

�backstreet barometer
Our cat, Charlie, is something over ten years old and there has
been considerable talk around our house of late as to just how this
age compares with that of a human being Using the old cat to hu­
man formula of seven to one, we have come up with a comparable
age for Charlie of about 70 to 75 years old.
The other day Charlie was taking his ease on my lap as I dozed
in front of the television set. Amy was in the kitcnen getting a
meal ready and she wondered where everybody was and what they
were doing.
"I don't know where everybody is, " said my daughter, "but I
think two members of the family are holding a senior citizens meet­
ing in the other room".

I can remember when I first went to that country the Army and
Navy were experiencing some difficulty with GI truck drivers who
were trained to use the right side of the road driving cars with the
stcaring wheel on the left side of the truck,- driving down the left
side of the street.
In traffic things co(i|d get- just.a bit tricky. The truck driver who
wished to pass another car had to stick halt of his vehicle out into
on-coming traffic before he.could see if the way was clear or not.
If it wasn't clear.it was often too late to matter much.
In addition to the great influx of GI traffic with the stearing
wheel on the wrong side for such carrying on, most of the native ve­
hicles, busses, taxis, trucks and private cars were built in the nates
and were equipped for driving on the right side of the street.
Traffic in Panama City was only loosely controlled in those days.
There seemed to be few traffic lights, and the policemen didn't ap­
pear to care much what a driver did so long as he didn't run over a
policeman while he was doing it.
The right-of-way at an intersection seemed to go to the fellow
with the most guts and the loudest horn. Homs were very big
in
those days.

Fora long time our kids thought of the living room as "the other
room. ” If they were asked where something was they would answer
with a specific room name, bedroom, kitcnen, dining room, fam­
ily room or "other" room.

A couple of people were talking with me the other day about auto
safety and we somehow got off on the subject of drivingon the right
or left side of the road. We tried to figure out how theBritish came
to drive on the left side of the road while the rest of the world took
to the right side. We never did come to a conclusion, but it did
serve to remind me that fora long time the countries of South and
Central America followed the English system and drove on the left
Mexico abandoned it some time ago as did most of the others, but
the Republic of Panama held on to the tradition until well into the
war.
..............
It also appeared- to a casual observer that the men chosen to drive
GI trucks were accident prone alcoholics with suicidal tendencies.
The native drivers, on the other hand, were untrained maniacs who
didn't know the meaning of the word fear. They never bothered to
have the brakes checked, but they saw to it that the horn was in
fine working order. Taxi drivers, even when cruising and looking
for passengers, drove at the top speed of the vehicle. They no doubt
were going on the theory that the more ground they covered, the
more likely they were to pick up a fare.
Right in the midst of all of this confusion about traffic, the gov­
ernment decided to change the water on the minnies and throw in
with the bulk of the world and switch to the other side of the street.
In order not to spoil the fun of the thing, the government was
careful not to make too much of a thing of the change in traffic
flow. They kept it a state secret right up to the day it went into ef­
fect.

For the first few weeks of the change-over a person was taking his
life in his bands to go out on the streets. Some folks clung to the
old tradition and tenaciously bucked the line of those who had de­
cided to go along with the new and radical idea of driving on the
wrong side of the street. A few took to driving on the sidewalks, but
this was frowned upon as being rather unfair.
For quite a while the taxi drivers patrolled both sides of the street
at once; this was accomplished by making wide-sweeping arcs from
curb to curb.
,
The Panamanians are a tradition-loving people, and when I left
there^ seme two years after the change from left to right side of the
street, many of the drivers were still betting on the English systemand using it.
.

The British seem to have done things their own way through the
ages, and they also seem to have done rather well with it. we A­
mericans have followed the British lead on some of the things too.
While the rest of the world has standardised measurements to the
metric system, which is beautifully simple, we and the British have
stood firm on a system which has little rule and just about no reas­
on.
Any first-grade child can easily learn the rule of the metric sys­
tem ma short time, but most adults would be hard pressed to tell
the number of ounces in a quart, or the number of ounces in a
pound.
From inch, to foot, to yard, to mile there is no system or rule to
follow. From ounce to pound to ton there is no system. The English
even further confuse it with pennyweights and stones thrown in.
Even Englishmen must have trouble counting their money. That is
one place where we have broken with them and set up a logical sys­
tem of counting.
’
One of these days we will have to fall into step with the rest of '
the world and so will the English.
Of course one big reason we don't immediately go to the metric
system is that all of the measuring devices used by industry would
with metric measures. Nuts, bolts,
wrenches,
rould have to be changed. This might take
years and it would

program to a full four-year med­
ical degree curriculum.

DOCTORS COMING
Many cheered when Michigan
State University's Institute of
Biology and Medicine staned
classes this fall, the first aca­
demic step toward a full-scale
medical school on the East Lan­
sing campus. The long effort to
come into existence was over.
Among those cheering were
educators at MSU who had work­
ed for years to get the two-year
medical school program out of
the planning stage.
Many outsiders as well lauded
the new program because of its
potential for helping alleviate
the doctor shortage tn Michigan
and throughout the nation.
One who called to hear: “I’m
sorry but Dr. Jones is not taking
any new patients, ” can appre­
ciate what the MSU Insititute
can mean. ■

University officials have ouut
into the curriculum a relatively
new concept in medical educa­
tion. They hope to encourage a
maximum of independent study
and original research at the
earliest levels of the future doc­
tor's study.
Instead of the usual proce­
dure of lecture rooms and labor­
atories for 30-40 hours each
week, the MSU medical stu­
dents will have only about 25
hours in required class time.
Other hours may be filled with
student-selected courses, indi­
vidual study, research projects,
pan-time jobs or other activi­
ties the student feels are worth
while.

Starting with 26 students this
fall, MSU officials hope to get
state approval to expand the pi

Institute planners see their
curriculum as a six-year pro­
gram, including the first four
years of undergraduate work as
an integral part of the first
two years at the traditional
medical school.
Thus, the students in the pro­
gram this year are considered
to be in the fourth year of col­
lege leading to the bachelor's
degree, although most of the
26 already hold a degree.
Next year, normally the first
in medical school, MSU's stu­
dents will start limited patient
contact in clinical work, which
is not usually started until a

one full year in medicine.

CHANGE PROPOSED
Before the 1961-62 Constitu­
tional Convention, many poli­
ticians described the state's bas­
ic document in the same terms
used to criticize the present
tax structure: "patch-work" and
"horse-and-buggy."
Critics maintained a simil“ arly dim view of the new con­
struction, but it has so far
withstood several attempts at
amendment.
This fall it appeared that vo­
ters would be asked to start a
massive move to change the
Constitution which has only
been in effect for two years.

Church groups

join for singing
The first of the once-a-month
“Singspirations" sponsored by
the Nashville Methodist and the
E. U. B. churches was held last
Sunday evening at the E. U. B.
church.
There was a good at­
tendance from the two local
churches, also groups from the
Barryville and Vermontville
Methodist churches.
Rev. B. J. Varner, pastor of
the host church, presided and
led the singing, which was
grouped in familiar hymns, gos­
pel songs and choruses. Special
numbers were contributed by
members of the local church
choirs. There was a hearty par­
ticipation in the singing by the
congregation which made it an
evening of happy and inspiring
fellowship.
The next Singspiration will be
held in the Methodist church
the second Sunday evening of
October.
Everyone is welcome to at­
tend.

Reunion planned
The Class of 1946 will hold a
reunion at the. home of Mt. and

Michigan gained the necessary
two-thirds vote in the two
houses to get in on the Novem­
ber ballot.

Proponents and opponents of
the 18-year-old vote idea were
basically pleased that this issue
would go to the public alone,
although many were disappoint­
ed that their other pet ideas
would not get a hearing this
year.
It is easier to get an idea a­
cross to the voting public if
there is only one matter to dis­
cuss.
With two, three or even more
constitutional proposals on the
ballot, voters could easily be
confused when they get inside
the polling place.
Constitutional amendments
are worded about as simply as
possible on the ballot but with
a number of them to be consid­
ered a poorly informed voter
could easily be confused about
the questions before him.

�FIRM CALENDAR
- - Michigan Magnetics, Inc. of
VermontviUe is in the process of
adding 7,180 square feet on the
southwest side. This $50,000 ad­
dition will probably be ready for
occupancy sometime in October,
according to present plans.
The expansion was necessary
because at the over-crowded
conditions in other areas. The
new section will be used primar­
ily for the production of toe
head used in toe automatic auto­
mobile tape player. Some space
in the basement will be used as
storage.
Michigan Magnetics, a mil­
lion dollar industry, has con verted their entire line of heads
to offer both toe single laminar,
plus the laminated line which
provides a complete line of
heads for almost aU applica­
tions in toe audio field. During
the past year and a half toe
company has moved heavily in­
to toe automobile tape player
market for which they supply the
heads. This is. a very special­
ized field and production was
stepped up in an effort to keep
up with the orders. Stereo mu­
sic in automobiles is a very big
new market, and the company
conducted a three-year research
program before they offered
these specialized heads which
are traditionaUy thought of as
high priced.
Michigarilvlagnetics is offering
them in a price range and of a
better quality than had been
thought possible in toe past. The
research program has enabled
Michigan Magnetics to build
these heads from materials which
are superior to those previously
manufactured from metal o r
plastic materials. The lamina­
ted heads are especially design­
ed for application where speed
of the tape is much slower than

Annual Ram Day
Sept 21, at MSU
The annual Ram Day spon­
sored by the Michigan Sheep
Breeders* Association will be
held at the MSU Cattle Bam in
East Lansing on Wednesday, Sep­
tember 21st. Purebred sheep
breeders will assemble over 100
top quality rams and offer them
for sale.
All rams will be inspected,
weighed, and priced, and pen­
ned by breeds. This procedure
makes it possible for buyers to
look at a large selection of
rams from some of the best
flocks in the state with a mini­
mum of time and travel
The offering will include year­
ling and two year old rams from
the more common breeds as well
as a few outstanding ram lambs
that have met rigid weight re­
quirements. The rams will be
for sale from 10:00 am to 3:00
pm.
Lamb prices were quite favor­
able this past year and this
would seem to be the right time
to select a top quality ram for
next year's lamb crop. The cost
of the ram spread over the num­
ber lambs he will sire over a
two year period is^a very small
item, and rhe use of a good ram
is one of the first steps toward
increased income from the
flock.

viously demanded by the audio
Michigan Magnetics employs
about 170 persons of which 82
per cent are women. This is due
to the close work requiring a
considerably amount of dexter­
ity.
The annual payroll is
$650,000. The majority of the
employees are recruited from
the area.

Michigan Magnetics is a sub­
sidiary of VSI Incorporated of
Los Angeles, Calif. The plant
was first organized by Charles
Murphy of Vermontville who
served as president tor Several
years. In July, 1965, Mr. Mur­
phy retired and Mason Phelps of
Pasadena, Calif., assumed the
duties as president.
In commenting on the $50,000
addition, Wayne C. Cole, gen­
eral manager, said, "It was our
desire to isolate the head being

used in the automotive field m .
order to better facilitate pro­
duction. ” No doubt when the
new addition is ready for oc­
cupancy die plant will be able
to step up production to meet
the ever-increasing needs in the

The architect for the addition
was Chris King, and the con­
tractor, Robert Halsey. Both are
from Vermontville.

�United Fund leaders make 1966 plans
United Fund leaders in Mich­
igan are making final plans for
1966 campaign for support of
hundreds of health, welfare and
recreation agencies for the com­
ing year.

Amonj the most important of
these is 1 le Michigan
_ Society
_
For Mental Health^ Mental '
Health is Michigan's and the
nation's No. 1 health problem.
At least one person in ten has
some form of mental or emo­
tional illness that needs psychi­
atric attention. One fourth of
Michigan's mentally or emotion­
ally troubled are school age
children under fifteen yean of
age. In addition to hospital care
for these children the agency
supports Child Guidance Clinics
and Special Education Centers.

Michigan has more than
25, 000 hospital beds for the
mentally ill, but most people
do not need full time intensive
care.

After-care if one of the most
important services offered by
the Society for Mental Health.
Of patients who receive after­
care help only 12% require re­
admission to Hospitals. Of pa­
tients who do not receive after­
care nearly half return to the.
hospital within twelve months.
Michigan has five cities provid­
ing this service.
One ot the newer health a­
gencies supported by the United
Fund is the Michigan Diabetics
Association. Diabetics is the
sixth leading cause of death in
the United States. No cure is

LAIVIp^

available at the. nresent time
but control is possible through
medication and proper diet.

The agency's major efforts
are directed at finding unknown
diabetics and gening them to
use the current methods of con­
trol. For this reason an exten­
sive public education and detec­
tion program is carried out.
Michigan is a national leader in
diabetes detection and during
National Detection Week a
number of Michigan hospitals
and laboratories offer free tests.
Research is the tmai weapon
against these illnesses. The Na­
tional United Fund carries on an
extensive research program.
Many of the largest medical cen­
ters are cooperating with this
program._______________________

This photo shows a view of the Thornapple River near Vermontville. For those with canoes or other
boats, a leisure trip down the river could prove to be very delightful at this time of the year. As
well as enjoying the colorful foilage along the banks, one can observe many kinds of wildlife— in­
cluding maskrats, and different kinds of buds and fish.

John Simon, the new druggist
recently moved his family here
from Grand Rapids. Since the
move, the youngest Simon
daughter, who is four, has taken
to awakening in the night and
crawling into bed with ner par­
ents.

The other morning John woke
up to tome violent snaking. She
had crawled into bed with.him
during the night and was' not
objecting to what she called his
loud breathing. "Stop breath­
ing, Daddy. " the told him,
"you're keeping me awake. "
Women are given to making
strange requests of men and
they start at an early age.

We went over to East Lansing
for the football game, Satur­
day, and things don't teem to
have changed much. Somehow
the ticket office always man­
ages to get a drunk close be­
hind me. I am not sure he is
always the tame man, year af­
ter year, but his pattern of ac­
tivity is the same.

He starts off at quiet and
calm at the rest of us but right
after the kick off be and his
friend sun nipping. The more
he nips, the louder he gets,
yelling instructions to the quar­
terback and the coaches, who
must be a half-mile away, down
the field.'

This fellow alwav* seems to
be rooting for the other'team,
but most of his rooting seems
to consist of hollering insult* at
individual metribers of the team
or the officials immediately af­
ter the play.
• '.. .
During the half-time cere­
mony he shouts instructions to
the trombone player, and an­
nounces to the general public
the name of the tune being play
ed and just what the band for­
mation is. "See, they are form'
ing a big NCU for North Caro­
lina University. Now they are
playing the Alma Mater. ”

During the'third quarter this
fellow becomes very friendly
with everyone near trim and of­
fers each of his new-found .
friends a snort of his bottle.
At the start of the last quar­
ter, he and his buddy get up
»nH stagger out. steppin? on

toes all along the wav, mutter­
ing something about having to
get to the parking lot so that
he can be out on the highwaybefore all those crazy drivers.

' I always seem also to manage
to sit close to the two alums
■ who know every play and call it
before it comes off. "Watch
now, here comes the big bomb.
He'll pass it right down the mid­
dle. ' The play actually turns
out to be an end sweep good for
several yards. "What would you
do here Charlie?"" he asks the
fellow next to him. Charlie
. mutters something unintelligible
and his friend informs him that
is all wrong. When the play is
over be uys, "See Charlie, if
they "had done it your wav they
would have Ion plenty of yard­
age. "

With all of these disturbances,
it is difficult for the real fans
, , to concentrate.
I paid strict attention though.
I kept my eye on die good look­
ing blond in the tight knit dress.

Some people seem to have all
the luck. Our son asked if we
would stop somewhere while in
East Lansing and purchase a pair
of guppies for him to give to his
little sister for her birthday,
which is the end of this week.
The idea was to get the little
fish and hide them from the
birthday girl until it was time
to present them. The fish were
properly hidden away, and Sun­
day morning when we got up
Chris checked on them. During
the night the little mother had
given birth and we now had ten
guppies where before we had
only two. With all the activity
of taking the little ones, we had
to tell Do about them and give
them to her then.

.........

We paid 39^ each for the or­
iginal* and we had 8 additional
one* so we figure we increased
• our investment considerably
■ over night
__
Now, if we can keep produc­
tion up, and the price of gup­
pies remain* at 394 each
or
.". higher, we may well turn out
to be worth millions. We may
not have a million dollars, but
I'll bet we could have a million
guppies.

BEER —A big boost to the economy!
The brewing industry each year contributes over
1.4 billion dollars in federal, state and local excise
taxes. Wages and salaries in the brewing industry
account for almost 500 million dollars, and the
purchase of packaging materials from other in­
dustries runs over 550 million. So next time you
enjoy a cool, refreshing brew after hard work or

than one!

SAME FIGHT
Four short yean from now a
vicious circle will begin again
unless some alteration is made
in the 1963 Sute Constitution. •
In the past two yean it has
been undeniably shown that eight
partisans, evenly divided, cannot
objectively divide the sute into
legislative districts as dictated
by the Constitution.
, Now that the apportionment
problem has twice produced dead­
locks and been, in the courts more
than once, it is easy to look back
and say the Constitutional Con­
vention delegates should have
known better.

but Brucker and other commis­
sioners said the ninth member,
who would be directly responsible
to the voters, would be more
likely to take an objective view
of legislative redistricting.

ability to raise one’s own pay, is

�Cheryl Benedict, exchange student returns
Miss Cheryl Benedict recent­

year abroad was made even
more enjoyable when she was
joined by her parents on N e w

stay, and together they made
visits into Switzerland, France.
Southern Bavaria and other
points of interest. ■
While in Germany Cheryl
lived on a farm with Mr. and
Mrs. Wolfgang Dietz in Budes­
heim, Am Buchwald, near
Frankfurt. Mr. Dietz had been
an exchange student in. 1959
living with a family in Kansas.
Cheryl helped with the house­
hold duties, worked in the
fields, and attended high school
in Frankfurt She rode a bicycle
into the town of Budesheim,
then took a train to Frankfurt
each day. She took 16 subjects
including German, which she
reads and speaks very easily
now.
The school she attended was
very old, the only one in Frank­
furt which was not bombed dur­
ing the war. At regular periods
throughout the school day the
students go into a courtyard
where, regardless of the weath­
er, where one is required to
walk for 15 minute periods.
This is supposed to have a re­
freshing influence when one
returns to the classroom.
Cheryl prefers American
schools to German. There,

of age he must decide what he

his education is gauged from the
decision^ and the student
will either prepare for a higher
education or a trade school....
The decision is often influ enced by the financial status of
the family, and sometimes the
older child, particularly if it is
a boy, is privileged to continue
his education over the younger
members of the family. Only
25 per cent of the German chil. dren receive a higher educa­
tion, and as a result the young
people are very immature. In
many of the classes the students
are required to attend they are
never given exams or marks in
their subjects, so it is difficult
to know whether they are grasp­
ing the work or not. The at­
titude between the students and
teachers is not as favorable as
in America either.
Foods in Germany are excel lent,and' Cheryl gained consid­
erable weight during her stay.
There were a number of foods
she missed, however, including
such commonplace things as
sweetcorn and marshmallows.
Twice a year, in April and Oc­
tober, the farmers butcher. A
butcher from the village comes
to the farm and assists. Cheryl
had eaton a blood sausage be­
fore she watched the butchering
process and had to boil down
the blood to make the sausage
base. It is a very rubber^ s u b stance, and after it fell her lot
to prepare it she suddenly lost
her taste for the finished prod­
uct. The sausages are hung in
the attic after completion, and
most of the remaining pork is
either canned or smoked.

Mr. and Mrs. Hollister died

Mr. Hollister was born on Ap­

son of Albert and Rose (Hoff­

the Dowling School and mar­

They farmed in the Nashville

Cheryl's year ended all too
soon, although she is glad to be
back home where she is making
preparations to enter Manchest­

Ind., as a freshman this year.
Here she will continue to study
the German language, among
other things, preparatory to be­
coming a teacher.

after die age of about ten it is

They attended church services
on Christmas eve, but there

At Easter time they colored

of children were invited to the
farm for an egg hunt.
German families often go vis­
iting on Sundays, and much
travel is done with a horse and
wagon or on a tractor. The trac­
tors are often provided with two
to six seats to carry the family,
never with just one.
It is a
law in Germany that
one must have his chimney
cleaned very often, and a chim­

fellows are also regarded as a
sort of good luck omen.
Sugar beet fields ate numer­

Cow beets are widely grown
also. When they are harvested
the tops are fed the cattle and
the beets are piled up and care­
fully covered for winter use.
Cheryl got to visit many
places with her school group. All
students from the eighth through
the 13th grade are allowed t o
take trips, sometimes for ten
days. These are varied, and on
one trip with a farm group of
young people Cherl visited Ber­
lin and over into East Berlin
where she attended a propagan­
da ffiovie and secretly met with

ed since that time on the Lacey

THE VERMONTVILLE ECHO

Mayo District
-

September 22nd will be the
start of a Fall series of classes
about the Roman Catholic Faith.
They will be held each Thurs­
day evening from 7:30 to 9:00
Pm at the St. Edward Church,
Lake Odessa. Also they will be
repeated on Saturday, 2:30 to
4;00 Pm at St. Cyril, Nashville,
starting September 24. '
Can you cvu.ert a Christian
to Christianity?
One of the serious problem"
facing the Christian Churches
today is Unity. And one of the
critical areas for the ecumeni­
cal movement toward unity is
the whole question of evange­
lism, or as we used to say,"con­
vert- making”. How is it poss­
ible to convert a Christian t o
Christianity?
This is a real problem for all
of us who are dedicated to
Christ. If we are sincere in our
love and joy of Christ then we
must of necessity wish to pass
this on to our neighbor. But

yet this very effort to share the
good with others can carry with
it an attitude of condemnation
of the good tiling! others would
wish to share wiui you. It seems
to me if we would allow others
that freedom which we demand
for ourselves, then we might all
grow in deeper understanding of
Christ by sharing our common
conviction of brotherly love.
Therefore I am announcing
these classes about the Roman
Catholic Faith not with the
idea of " converting" Christians
to another “ brand", but ratbet
with the hope of increasing our
mutual understanding and love
of Christ and of each other. Let
us pray that all of us might be
open to the Holy Spirit and
might be willing to follow His
lead.
In a word let us allow the
Holy Spirit to be free from our
human interference with His
work.

�Michigan trees fall showplace

one Notes
'

MRS, INA SMITH

lot small troubles

One of the great mysteries of
nature is unfolding in Michigan^
woods and forests as the greens
of summer give way to the flam­
boyant colors of autumn.
The reasons why some trees
turn and others do not and why
some turn faster than others is
somewhat obscure, botanists ad­
mit. but &gt;t all adds up to scen­
ic delight for vacationers and
sightseers.
Those wlio look at the change
of the season through scientific
eyes have observed that both
the matter of the turning of col­
ors and the falling of the leaves
coincide with a definite time­
table of nature, related to the
shortening of the daylight hours.
It is the same kind of timetable
that triggers the southern migra­
tion of Birds and the spawning
run of certain species of fish-a mystery which scientists have
never been able to unravel
It seems likely, too, that the
widely accepter! theory that
color changes are induced by
heavy frost is probably a myth.
Conversely, it appears that such
extreme weather has a tendency
to reduce the formation of fail
color rather than enhance it.
Frost, as related to the turning
of leaves, is now thought to be
more of a coincidence rather
than a contributing factor.
An abundance of chlorophyl
in wooded plants accounts for
Michigan's green summers. To­
wards late September and early
October, nature springs the mys­
terious mechanism that breaks
down the chlorophyl supply and
the pigmentations of yellows,
browns and reds—already pres­
ent in the leaves--remains. In
some trees, the color chemistry
occurs just before the leaves fall
Added to this mystery is the
fact that the turning of leaves
in autuntii is characteristic, to a
greater extent, of American
rather than European trees.
Plants imported to Michigan
soil will turn bright colors orre• main green, according to the
timetable of their native region.
This factor is a dead giveaway
as to their origin.
Climate is not necessarily a
factor and neither is the rela­
tionship of one tree to another,
for many unrelated trees turn
identical colors while others of
the same familv will turn dif­
ferent colors.
Whatever the cause, color
tour enthusiasts find Michigan's
fall season is resplendent with
nature's most magnificent fin­
ery.
From the rocky crags of the
Upper Peninsula to the gentle,
rolling hills of the southern
counties, Michigan in autumn
is one gigantic color tour.
Many communities and reg­
ional groups have established
posted color trails where motor­
ists follow marked signs which
take them through the more out­
standing color areas.
Michigan is well supplied with
a variety of trees making it the
fall showplace of the nation.
With 85 kinds of soft and hard­
wood species it has a greater of­
fering than any other state. It
has more types of trees than all
of Europe.
Flaming scarlet and crimson
mingle with chromes and a m bers over a background of greens
supplied by spruce, pine and
other firs. Low growing sumac,
berry bushes and scrub oak add
to theaiot of color that is Mich­
igan iaautumn.
_
Rambling through Michigan's
woodeB countryside oh a fall
weekend can prove a rewarding
experience for those who find

grow into big ones.

�Special Education
Services continue
Special education services in
the Eaton County Intermediate
School District continue to ex­
pand in the face of a critical
shortage of trained professional
personnel according to Donald
Scott, Eaton County Director of
Special Education. This short­
age is attested to by the fact •
that the State Legislature in its
last session, set aside funds to
provide scholarships for college
students and college graduates
desiring to enter the special ed­
ucation field.

The number of type A rooms
for the educable mentally hand­
icapped has been increased to
nineteen in the county by the ad­
dition of more programs at Belle­
vue, Charlotte, Maple Valley,
Eaton Rapids and Grand Ledge.
A room for children with emo­
tional difficulties has been es­
tablished in the Grand Ledge
School District. Children served
in this program have emo­
tional problems which do nor al­
low them to utilize their capa­
bilities and it is the purpose of
this program, with a maximum
of ten students and a specially
trained teacher and other person­
nel. to provide a specialized
setting conducive to maximum
growth.
A third visiting teacher has
been added to the Eaton County
Intermediate School Office staff.

Sometime soon now, within the next couple of
yean, Nashville will be celebrating its's centennial.
I'm not exactly sure when it is and I'm not even sure
; whom to ask. As a matter of fact, it must have been
, about a hundred yean ago right now, that the town
was first settled. J'he centennial must go by the date
or the incorporation of the village, or at least by the
date of the first political organization within the
village. They tell rt&gt;e the "Centennial anniversary
of this must be darn soon now.
Perhaps I should start growing my beard now so
that I will have a nice lush growth on my chin when

bar just didn't have the nerve to do it. 1 know if I
started one I would immediately have a lot of folks
asking me just why I was growing a beard and
I
.
wouldn't have a good answer for them. That would
be murder because people don'.t trust anyone who
grows a beard just for the heck of iL
Both the Nashville and the Vermontville Lions
Clubs have an anniversary this year also. Both clubs
have been in existence for something like 25 yean •
now. At the meeting of the Nashville club Monday
night we discussed this fact and in commemoration
of the big date we ate going to put on a member­
ship drive. ' *

Did you ever notice bow a dog can get people in-,
to a conversation? Just walk down the street with a
cute little dog on a leash and a lot of people will . ".
talk to you about the dog. What's his name?What
breed is he? How old is he? Is he a he or a she?
The same is true of a camera. When a camera
bug sees another camerai bug with a fine camera
he immediately gets into a conversation with him.
The other night at the football game I saw a fel­

low with a Cannon camera on his neck and just a­
bout that time he saw me with the Pentax. We im­
mediately got together to look at each other's
cameras and to compare notes on them.
While we were talking, the fellow who was up
on top of the press box making motion pictures
came down and got into the conversation. He had
seen us with our cameras and as soon as half-time
came around he got over to check them out too.

the subject will be Human Re-

Just in case you are wondering, the Echo office
has been leased by Sam Willoughby and he is going
to be repairing, manufacturing and finishing fine
furniture there.

I found a book that has been kicking around the
office .for years I guess, but I just got around to
looking at it. It is a series of very short observa­
tions called "What This World Needs, " and it goes
like thia.
Every time the reformers succeed in putting over
something, a new crop of reformers has to be
raised to get rid of it.
A dog with poor teeth should use judgment in

All men are created equal but they don't have
to stay that way.

There is no sense in having an argument with a

THE NASHVILLE NEWS

There will be few changes, if
any, in Michigan's autumn
schedule.
&lt;
Give or take a few days, the
first fall color tinges the heav­
ily forested upper peninsula i n
mid-September, then bursts
forth in as array of color near
the beginning of October, a c cording to the Michigan Tourist
Council
As the season progresses, the
colot show begins its southern
journey, sweeping across t h e .
Straits of Mackinac and engulf­
ing lower Michigan.
The autumn spectacular con.
tinues for about six weeks with
the last blush of color fading
from the southernmost forests a­
bout the first of November.
The color is breath-taking as
birch, aspen, maple, oak and
others of the many Michigan
soft and hardwoods revert t o '
their own particular timetable
and the colors of their species.
Intermingled with the neverchanging greens of spruce, pine
and cedars, nature is unrestrain­
ed in this role of showman, mix­
ing qaudy orange and yellow
with scarlet, amber and gold
and the many shades between.

Take away the color, and
the season is still inviting with
comfortably warm days, cool
nights and generally uncrowded
conditions making for more en­
joyable travel Vacationers can
also take advantage of lower
rates for accommodations of­
fered at many establishments.

Copies of the map and other .
autumn vacation planning in­
formation are available without
charge by writing the Michigan

To assist vacationers, many
communities throughout the
state have posted tours which
take motorists through areas
which are considered best for
viewing and changing foliage.
In the upper peninsula, tours
take viewers through ghost town*
to abandoned mines and histor­
ic sites. Nearby are many of
the peninsula's more than 150
waterfalls and photographers
find great delight in capturing ’■
these scenic wonders against the
backdrop of autumn.

Travelers may stop and visit
mines, ride chair lifts to scenic
heights or take boat cruises
which offer unique vantage
.
points from which to view the
fall colors.

Bernie Hickey was elected
Back of the Week by the oth­
er members of the Maple Val­
ley team this week.
Hickey is a junior, half­
back. He is 5'6" tall and
weighs in at 140 pounds. Ber­

sive team.

The Lineman of the Week
is tackle Wayne Gould.
Wayne is a junior, is 5' 11"
ano weighs 160 pounds.

Lions drop one
to Wayland
Wayland took the lead early in the fint quarter
when a blocked Maple Valley punt gave them the
ball on the 20 yard line. Merren carried it over in
a 20 yard run and Wayland added a point with the
conversion kick.

The second quarter belonged pretty much to Ma­
ple Valley. Paul Goforth ran 21 yards to put Maple
Valley on the boards. The attempt at an extra point
failed when the kick went wide of its mark.
Wayland suffered a couple of set-backs with pen­
alties and just didn't seem to get an offense work^The second Maple Valley score came in the third
quarter when John Newman snapped a 23-yard pass
to Bill Reid. Again the attempt to kick the extra
point failed.
After the half-time : show Wayland came back to
the field fired up enough to bold Maple Valley and
to score seven points in each of the third and last
quarter.
The final score was 21 to 12.
Hamilton comes to Maple Valley this Friday,
Sept. 30. The game will be played at the Fuller
Street School Field and will start at 8:00.

Lions lose to Hamilton

Maple Valley went up against a tough Hamilton
team last Friday but held them to only one score in
each quarter. The Hawkeyes team which
out­
weighed and out maneuvered the Lions managed to
score in each quarter excepting the last one.
Mike Brinks sparked Hamilton's offense with two
touchdowns and Ward Johnson got the third with a
one-yard plunge.
Hamilton was able to move the ball well both on
the ground and in the air. Their passing combina­
tion looked unusually good on many occasions.
The Lions really didn't get into gear until the
fourth quarter, when sophomore Steve Stein quart­
erbacked them on a scoring drive that moved them
65 yards down the field. During the drive down the
field Stein completed a pass to his brother, Dan

Stein, a senior.
Maple Valley's drive ended with a ten yard run
by Steve, for a score. He then ran his own conver­
sion for the extra point

chronic treatment (dialysis) with the artificial kid­
ney and transplantation of donor kidney.
Direct Patient Services include the operation of
drug banks to provide life giving medication at
cost (or free of charge in hardship cases)and the sup­
port of diagnostic clinics and hemodealysis centers.
Professional Education spreads the latest research

newest drugs and techniques.
Public Education informs the lay citzenry on the
nature and scope of this health problem on the
most pressing needs, especially the needs for mote

In its program change it plans a moderate exten­

Its major emphasis, however, will be on the es­

ie volunteers.
•
it Director Dr. Robert A. Kimmich notes
that the volunteers provide a strong supplement to
staff efforts and in many cases give services which the staff is unable to provide.
"Because volunteers jre not paid and inmost cases
are not highly trained, it is possible for them to es­
tablish a relationship with patients which is mote ef­
fective and mote personal than is often possible for
a paid worker, * says Kimmich.

under their plan, each Congressional district
would be cut into two nearly equal population dis­
tricts to elect Michigan'! 38-member Senate. Then
each of the Senate districts would be divided into
three, to provide a 114-member House of Represen­

The change In the Constitution
for an
eight-man bi-parthan commission, with the membea selected by the powers in the two majority po­
litical parties.

Even without the precedent-breaking Court de­
cisions. it was cleat that Michigan's new apportion­
ment commission system was not designed to be in­
dependently effective.
Even with the provision for taking plans to the Su­
preme Court if agreement did not come from the
eight commissioners, flaws in this section of the
new Constitution were evident.
There will most assuredly be several ideas pro­
posed for making the post-1970 apportionment work
more quickly and smoothly.

Apportionment would start in the legislature with
this body setting the boundary lines for the Congress­
ional seats. Then the division of these into Senate
districts and those into House districts would revert
to an apportionment commission fairly comparable
to that currently provided for in the Constitution.
Retaining the bipartisan commission could condivision of the state would be

IT REALLY WORKS
Citizen participation in government has been a
key phrase in Gov. George Romney's speeches since
he first came into the public spotlight.
An example of the usefulness of citizen partici­
pation can be readily found in the State Mental
Health Department.
This department reports that there are well over
5,000 volunteers actively working in state hospitals
for mentally ill and retarded and at community
clinics throughout Michigan.

Sunday callers at the home of Mt. and Mrs. H. B.
Sackett were Mr. and Mrs. Dick Campbell of Lansing
Mr. and Mrs. Chancy Walters, Mrs. Eva Dean. Mix.
Marjorie Buckborough and Mrs. Cyrus James and
Peggy of Hastings.
Mr. and Mb Glenn Curtis of Lansing were recent
visiiori of Mr. and Mb M. J. Perry.
Sunday lunch and evening guesB of the Perrys
were Mr. and Mb. Ernest Stebelton, two of hit grand­
daughters and Miss Donna Emrich of Battle Creek.
Mr. and Mb M. J. Perry called on his sister, Mb.
Bessie Shaver and Mb. Sadie Cowrove at the Faith
Nursing Home of Charlotte one day last week. '

ably, but it averages nearly 3,000 volunteers pro

Plan early Christmas mailing
Postmaster General Lawrence F. O'Brien Mid to­
day that a manual for winning the battle with the
annual avalanche of Christmas mail has been sent
to his field commanders, the nation's postmasters.
Mr. O'Brien also reminded mailers that the best
way to assist the Postel Service during the Christ­
mas ’rush"
is to shop early, mail early and use
ZIP codes.
"It definitely is not too early to start putting
your mailing lists in order, ” he said. "By organ­
izing your Christmas mailing early, you held your­
self to a happier and more relaxed holiday season."
The 60-page booklet gives postal employees
guidance on everything from obtaining additional
vehicles to window service hours.
The mobilization manual lists suggested mailing
dates to assure on-time delivery of Christmas mail
as;
Domestic surface mail — gift parcels for distant
states by December 5, for near-by areas by Decem­
ber 14. Greeting cards for distant states by Decem-

ber 10, for near-by areas by December 16.

Overseas surface mail -- should be sent no later
than November 10. Overseas air mail should be sent
by December 10. Domestic air mail is suggested for
the tail end of the mailing rush.
The Postmaster General reminded those mailing
to servicemen in the Pacific area andSoutheast Asia
that small parcels weighing five pounds or less may
be mailed at the domestic surface rate between the
point of deposit and San Francisco. The packages
will be sent by surface to the West Coast and by air
on a space available basis to their final destination.
The special issue of the Postal Bulletin places
heavy emphasis on the use of Zip Codes.
As for additional vehicles, the Postal Service may
borrow from other agencies of the government, use
surplus vehicles from storage or temporarily hire
them. Generally, window service will be-expanded
where needed.

Several affairs are being planned for Mrs. Robert
Griffin, wife of United States Senator Robert Griffin,
in Eaton County on Wednesday, October 5th, Dave

when one starts counting to add up the hundred

Do you start when the village was tint incorpor­

first settlers arrived here?
Now I have come up with another possibility.

Archives and they have told her that the

Nashville post office was first opened on June 29,
1866. This means that the post office, at least, is
a hundred years old.
Wilma also tells me that the first Nashville Post­
master was a man named John Palmer.
This leads me to believe that the centenial of
the town should be dam soon now. if not right now.
I think I had better start in on the beard bit. I'll
have to start early, if 1 expect to have a nice lush
growth on my chin by the time of the celebrating.
My problem now, is knowing just what sort of
hair preparation to put on the beard so that it comes

out a rich black instead of the scraggly gray that I
am sure it naturally will be.

My little daughter came in the bouse all excited
the other day to tell us that "Kelly Knoll has bro­

Since the new street lights have been installed,
the town is to bright that one could read the small

there would be no trouble reading it, you might
have trouble with the contract.
Our street department is to be congratulated on
the fine job they did on the sidewalk on Main street
between Sherman and Wheeler's station. The walk
is a great improvement to the town.

I hear the new barber in Vermontville has opened
for business (just as this is being written). This gives
me a week to get over there and get some infor­
mation on him.

YOU DECIDE
Do you want to pay for the blood you or
your family might need? Nashville area res
idents use 120-140 pints of blood a year.
This would cost $4,------------ —
Red Cross Blood Program. Can you afford
$25 to $50 a pint fat blood rather than give
your time to donate this need45 minutes
ed blood?
There is no substitute for blood—only
people like you can provide this.
Barry County's quou for this fiscal year
is 1,617 pints, of which only 319 have been
collected to date. Nashville's normal usage
is 9 to 10% of the county's estimated needs,
or approximately 145 pints.
Only you, your friends and your neigh­
bors can decide the answer. Let's get to­
gether and keep the dollars at home and the
blood supply available for any emergency.

�Board of Supervisors sponsors workshop
The Equalization Committee of the Eaton County
Board of Supervisors sponsored a workshop for the
Assessors of Eaton County on September 22, 1966.
Twenty-three assessing officials of the county at­
tended the workshop and Mr .Roy Paff, Director of
Research, Statistics and Education for the State Tax
Commission was an observer.
mittee and the staff of the Equalization Department.
The instructors included. Supervisors Alfred Mar­
quardt, Delta Twp., who is also Chairman of the
Equalization Committee; William Powers, Char­
lotte; James Hillard, Hamlin Twp.; Manin Craun,
Eaton Rapids Twp; Gerald Siple,’Vermontville Twp;
and Bruce Becker, Olivet. Other instructors in the
workshop were George Danks, property appraiser and
Francis Moss, Director of the Eaton Equalization De­
partment.
.....
Of the subjects covered in this training session, the
most liyely discussions concerned the exemption for
agriculture personal property. This exemption first
occurs for the 1967 assessments. Most exemptions
relieve the assessors from determining the value for
the property exempted. However, the 1966 Act No
205 creating this exemption for the farm personal
property also requires the amount of the exemption
to be shown on a tax bUL This means the owners of
farm personal property wUl be requested to fill out
agriculture personal property statements, and fUe
them with the assessor or township supervisor. Co­
operation by each property owner will assist the as­
sessors in meeting requirements of the new law.
Other studies in the training program included pro­
visions of the state constitution, supreme court cases

and sections of the compiled laws that pertain to the
assessment and taxation of general properties. These
all point to the necessity of uniformity and equity
of assessments among all classes and between all
classes of property.
The assessing officers' duties were also reviewed
and the requirements of obtaining statements of prop­
erty owners for assessment purposes. Assessors will
use only those forms approved by the State Tax
Commission as provided by law.
Another aspect of the workshop included valuation
procedures, especially multipliers for personal prop­
erty costs. This was designed to introduce the tech­
niques to be followed by the Equalization Depart­
ment in the assistance to assessors and valuation
studies to be started soon. The Equalization Depart­
ment is promoting county wide uniformity of assess­
ments. At the present time there is a need to estab­
lish up-to-date information on the level of assess­
ment and the proper valuation of various classes of
property in the county. From sales information, as­
sessment-sales ratios have been studied in certain
units in the county and these will continue. It is al­
so necessary to study personal property values.
The County Equalization Department was created
in April of this year. Following the 1966 equaliza­
tion preparation, the department has established it­
self with a total staff of three employees - The Di­
rector, Francis E. Moss; Appraiser, George J. Danks
and Stenographer, Caroline Myers.
The Board of Supervisor's Equalization Committee
is planning for another assessors workshop session for
residential appraisal problems. The State Tax Com­
mission staff has been requested to provide the in- »
struction for this workshop. The date is tentatively
set for November 10, 1966.

THE VERMONTVILLE ECHO

��WANT TO CHASE

A BAR?
p*ome along on a crisp fall morning to the wild wilderness of a
northern state where men and dogs gather in the misty, grey
light of dawn to put Mr. Bruin up a tree.
Wear your runnin’ shoes and bring a handkerchief to mop your
brow, because this is a hunt with more action than a police raid
at the country club.
Pioneered by the Michigan Bear Hunters association some 20
years ago, and since copied by Wisconsin hunters, the modern
bear chase is aimed at putting more sport into bear hunting. Prior
to the chase method of bear hunting, most bruins were taken by
hunters who stumbled across the animals’ dens during deer sea­
sons. There is little comparison between den-shooting a bear and
following a howling pack of dogs through swamp and woods to put
a bear up a tree.
The hunts are conducted earlier in the fall when the bear are
gorging themselves to store up fat for their winter sleep.
A typical hunt starts long before dawn, when men, boys and
dogs gather in bear country to seek out the sign of recent bruin
activity. An “Alley Oop” footprint along a dirt road is enough to set
things going.
A “strike dog” is turned loose to sort out the track, and when
he has done his job and begins to make “bear music” the rest of
the pack is turned loose to join in. Bear hounds are bred for stam­
ina, courage and "guts,” with the pedigree or breed of relatively
little importance. Walker, Redbone, Bluetick and Plott are hound
breeds most frequentl/ combined.

Once the dogs are all on the track — packs of three to Six are
most common—the hunters plunge into the woods behind them.
Only the most hardy hunters, such as those in Michigan who con­
dition themselves with roadwork months in advance of hunting, are
able to stay within howling or hailing distance of the dogs.
It is the nature of a chased bear to head for the thickest, most
impossible cover. A spruce swamp, full of windfalls and black,
mucky holes is a favorite place for bruin to lead the chase. Many
a hunt has ended in such terrain when the best efforts of experi­
enced dogs and men are not enough to force the bear up a tree.

The length of a chase varies from a few hundred yards to the
breadth of a county and back again. A Wisconsin chase once went
on for 17 hours and ended without a bear because hunting hours
were over when the critter was finally treed.

The killing of a treed bear is anticlimactic to the rest of the
hunt A hunting code in general use allows the first man to the
tree the first shot at the bear, but not before the hounds have
been put on leashes to prevent their being injured when the bear
topples down.
While bear hunting with hounds is likely to grow in popularity,
most bear will continue to be’taken when the horde of red-shirted
deer hunters take to the woods in states that allow concurrent bear
hunting.
In one such state where about 600 black bear are killed annu­
ally by deer hunters, over half of them are shot in dens. While there
are those who claim that den-shooting is not sporting, it is not
without its thrills.
A courageous or foolhardy archer, depending on your point of
view, once found a denned bear and decided to roust him out for
a cleaner shot at the animal. To accomplish this, he stood on top
of the den—a mound of dirt and leaves—and dropped a package of
lady-finger firecrackers into the den opening.

Mr. Bear came out of the den like a volcano, upsetting the
archer and hurtling off into the woods like a big black cannonball.

And the black bear does get big. During a Wisconsin deer season
several years ago, a 16-year-old high school girl killed a bear that
weighed 635 pounds and held the state record until several days
later a hunter killed one near Glidden, Wisconsin that dressed out
at 665 pounds.
;
This tremendous size has a modest start A newborn cub is
about the size of a red squirrel. They are born in January or Feb­
ruary while mama bear is denned up for her winter rest. The young­
sters— usually two to a litter, but as many as four — grow rapidly.
Eleven months after birth they weigh an average of 55 pounds.

�A bear’s diet consists generally of whatever is available, but
is made up primarily of vegetable matter—berries, shrub fruit, and
roots. They also eat grubs, ants, rodents, and,of course, honey. Few
things give old man bear more pleasure than tearing into a bee tree
where he wallows in the honey, apparently unmindful of the irate
buzzing bees.
The black bear’s varied eating habits frequently get him into
trouble that is his downfall. Conservation wardens in bear states
are often roused from bed in the wee hours of the morning by a
telephone call from a farmer who has suffered an unwelcome visit
from a bear. Usually the “guest” has visited the sheep pasture for
some fresh mutton, the orchard for apples, or the apiary for a honey
feast. Occasionally, however, the visitor has gone after a bigger
meal. The warden records in one northern state show a recent com­
plaint where a bear tore boards off the side of an ancient barn to
get inside where it killed a cow and calf.
xThis bear, along with others like it that become trouble makers,
have been removed from the scene by the wardens.
Some states pay farmers for
damage caused by bear.

Game officials would rather that
a bear be taken by a hunter instead
of killed on a complaint, and this
is another reason for the early hunt
in some states.

Bruin’s dietary habits have made
him important in another aspect of
outdoor recreation. This is the ap­
petite that he has developed for
the garbage in rural dumps. Thou­
sands of tourists wait at dumps on
summer evenings for their first
look at a wild bear.

Because many of the "city folks”
apparently fail to realize that they
are dealing with a wild animal, they
do foolish things, such as ap­
proaching the animals at close
range and even offering them food
from their hands.

“Someone is going to get hurt,”
a warden warned, and cited the
more than 100 bear injuries record­
ed annually at Yellowstone Nation­
al Park.
Bear are less dangerous to the
hunter who, of course,
usually
armed with a high-powered rifle.
Of some 500 successful bear hunt­
ers who responded to a game ques­
tionnaire, only four of them report­
ed that the animal charged them
after being shot. These charges,
which could have also meant that
the bear was simply traveling to­
ward the hunter in confusion to
escape, were all stopped in plenty
of time with additional shots.

Admittedly, it is a lot more fun
to chase a bear than to be chased
by one, and that brings us back to
where we started. You can be a
bear chaser simply by putting your­
self on the scene. Contact a state
conservation department where the
hunts are held for details on par­
ticipation.

And, remember, bring your run­
ning shoes.

�HANDLE THEM
Used properly, on-the-farm grain dry­
ers offer owners great opportunities at
harvest time. It makes little sense to do
everything in your power to grow top
yields, then leave a good portion of
them in the field because you lack prop­
er drying and storage facilities. Used
with the efficiency for which they’re de­
signed, a dryer can save you time, and
more importantly, put more profits in
your pocket.

Don LulFs drying and storage facilities

vators. Re gets his moisture content down

�ice cream sundae
only on Sunday
11 was in the old confectionery store that the ice cream sundae
1 came into being served by Edward C. Berners in Two Rivers,
Wisconsin. Back in 1881 a customer, George Hallauer, from Mar­
shall, Illinois, stopped at Berners and ordered a large dish of ice
cream. While waiting for his dessert a thought occurred to him.
“Say Ed, put a couple of spoonsful of that chocolate stuff on
top of that ice cream.”
"What chocolate?" asked Berners.
"That same stuff you put in ice cream sodas—I want it on top
of my ice cream.”
With some hesitation Berners followed orders. The new choco­
late covered ice cream was so delicious that Hallauer ordered an­
other one, ‘with the chocolate stuff on top.’ Other customers came
in, tried the new dish and enjoyed it too.
Soon there was a demand for the new but tasty ice cream com­
bination. Mr. Berners added other flavors such as strawberry, rasp­
berry and marshmallow. Going a bit further he heaped on nuts,
bananas, and fruits and made up names for these eye and taste
appealing treats. He added raisins to the chocolate dish and
called it the ‘Mudscow.' He crushed cereal, used it as a top­
ping, and named it the ‘Golden Glow.’ One dish of ice___________

was called the ‘Ricrty Popa.’
Many new dishes were concocted, each with its own original
name, such as the Flora Dora, the Gold Fish and an
extra large serving of ice cream swimming in fruit juices
was called the Two Rivers. More combinations were thought up
using chopped nuts, whipped cream, cherries, and dabs
of candy—all for the price of five cents.
At Manitowoc, Wis., six miles away, another confectioner
by the name of Charles Giffey heard of this competition
serving the exotic ice cream dishes with fantastic names. Giffey
appeared at Berners and asked for a dish of “that ice cream
with the chocolate on top.” He was pleased with the dessert
and the trimmings but not so pleased when he saw how much
was being served for only five cents. He imagined all the
ice cream stores going broke if they served
so much for such a low price.
&lt;
t
Between Mr. Berners and Mr. Giffey they decided that
the price would be kept at five cents, used as a sales leader
and sold only on Sunday.
It was little Peggy Giffey, the ten year old daughter of George,
while visiting at Two Rivers, came into the Berners store,
seated herself at a table and ordered "One'of those dishes of
ice cream with all that ‘stuff on top.”
"Oh,” said Mr. Berners, "We serve that only on Sundays.”
“I know, but I want some of that ice cream now—'
“Can’t, sold only on Sundays.”
“Well, I want some now. We can make believe today is Sunday,"
she insisted. Little Peggy won the argument and was served
her dish of ice cream with all that ‘stuff on top.
The name ‘Sundae’ came into use when a crockery salesman,
taking an order from Mr. Berners for the long canoe shaped
dish, placed his order with the factory and called them
‘Sundae Dishes.’
The ice cream sundae has changed over the years with new
flavors, new colors and new names. The price has changed
considerably too.

Sunday, 1 went out with my young son to show
him the way to fly a model airplane. At my age I
should stick to models of another kind, but 1
couldn’t foresee the dangers of flight without i n struction.
Actually I wasn't even the pilot in this crash,
and wasn't even a passenger.
The plane is one of those little gas engine jobs
that goes amend and around on the end of a control
string. They develop up a terrific speed and make
a whale of a lot of noise.
Mv bov and I took the plane over to the football
field to show visiting Uncle Maurie how the little
thing works. Since the grass is too long for a regu­
lar take-off, I was supposed to launch the plane
from about shoulder height After about two or
three tries I got the motor running just right and
threw the plane into the air.
It went straightup, just like the arrow in the
■poem. I could see, though , just where the plane
would come down. The fellow in the poem knew
not where, but I knew the plane would come down
t on which I was standing,
the end of the string on the
way up, a
and started down in a power
dive at about a hundred miles an hour.
Because I had vi'ery little desire to have an air­
plane sticking out of my head, I started to get put
of the general area. I could just see myself, walk­
ing into the doctor's office with that plane sticking
our of my head, the tail sticking out of one side
and the motor and wing out of the other side. The
doctor wouldn't know whether to pull it out or to
push it on through.
Anyway I decided not to wait arqund for the
crash, so I took off. In the rush to get out of the
crash area, I fell down and pulled a tendon or liga­
ment in my little finger. Now I am all taped up
and have an excuse for not being able to type.

■ • This is National Fire Prevention Week.... I'm
not sure what one should.do to prevent fires t his
week that he does not do the other 51 weeks of the
year, but whatever it is we should do it.
Our volunteer firemen work hard and long to give
us protection. Nashville and Vermontville can oe
proud of the results of this work.
The job of the fireman does not stop when the
fire is over, and it sure starts long before the fire
siren blasts off.
These firemen spend a lot of time in training
and study. They have meetings and sessions all
through the year. They spend hours learning new
techniques Of fire fighting and taking care of acci­
dent victims. They also spend considerable in the
way of money, winch they earn through their var­
ious projects, for much of their own equipment.
The very least we can do during this week is to
acknowledge the debt we owe to these dedicated
men for the protection they offer us through the
year.

Another big deal this week is Columbus Day, in
which we pay homage to ol' Chris who discovered
this land for us. I’m not too sure the land would
not be better off with the Indians, but that is be­
side the point.
There has been a lot of gruff of late about Co lumbus being a come-lately to the discoverin business. Some say that America was discovered ,
any number of people before Chris was even born.
This is no doubt true, and yet we have to have
someone to drop it on. so we pick Chris.
I read just the other day that the first voyage of
Columbus cost about the same as three minutes of
our space program costs the taxpayers of the U. S.

tay the queen hocked her jewels to send

The Perfect Newspaper
.(The editorial below
Tribune, David Rood
represents a slightly
motion, especially the

appeared in the Manistique Pioneer
and James Tagg. co-publishers. It
different approach to newspaper pro­
last two paragraphs.)

The newspaper is an institution developed by modem civil­
ization to present thenews of the day, to foster commerce and
industry, to inform and lead public opinion and to furnish that
check upon government which no constitution has ever been
able to provide.
We don’t have enough special weeks in the year as it is
now, so let’s add another one and promote an appropriate
observance.
We have Anti-Noise Week and Anti-Little Week, so now let’s
all get together and have Anti-Newspaper week. From all
indications it should be a tremendous success.
. &gt;
It will be an appropriate time to join together to blame the
newspaper for what’s wrong with the community and with the
people in it.- Everybody can get it all off their chests and then
sit at home in the evening and drink beer and watch television,
secure in the knowledge that they have done their part.
A committee can be organized to work out all the details, but
certainly special attention should be given to news report!.ig.
Hundreds of people are convinced weekly that the news re­
porting idea is all wrong, and they would be glad to serve to
help correct it. Perhaps they can emphasize that the news­
paper should only print good news, and glad tidings, and nice
things about nice people. They can campaign to do away with
bad news, and prohibit newspapers from reporting that people
do get drunk, get involved in auto accidents, receive traffic
tickets, make fools of themselves, go into bankruptcy shoot
their wives, assult their neighbors, set fire to the church,
embezzle money and spend tax dollars foolishly.
Perhaps a special award can be given for the newspaper
that doesn’t offend anybody.
.
Of course .this paper couldn’t run wedding stories, on the
off chance that the bride may be pregnant or the groom a
fortune hunter or both seeking matrimony on the rebound
from unhappy love affairs.
This perfect newspaper could never print the church notices,
for there are those who don't believe in churches, and who
oppose organized religion, and the newspaper should not offend
these people.
This perfect newspaper would carry no advertising, because
advertising is competitive, and it isn’t fair for one store to
tray an ad in the paper because it might help the store sell
some merchandise at the expense of some other competitor
who didn’t buy an ad. That* s not fair, and besides, everyone
knows that newspapers have all the money they need anyway.
Why give them advertising?
• ’ -

Our perfect newspaper will carry no pictures, because
there is a very good chance that someone might be offended.
The camera doesn't lie, they say, but maybe the newspaper
does.
The picture may be too close to the truth for many
people to stomach, and it’s easier to blame the newspaper for
printing the picture than it is to blame whoever or whatever
is represented in the picture. If a news photographer takes
a picture of a bank robber fleeing with ti?e cash, his paper
would be better off not to print it. for they’ll be blamed for
the bank robbery and the u&gt;ief will cnmnlain because the
photo didn't capture the real him and was of his worst profile.
goes without saying that the perfect paper will never

meetings or court trials or public hearings. We can’t have
the newspaper offending politicians and elected officials and
bureaucrats who as everyone knows are the only ones who know
how to run the government. There will be no embarrassing
quotes, no reports of what they did or how they acted. Govern­
ment will reach a new high in efficiency.
This newspaper can’t carry social items, for fear someone
will be hurt because they weren’t invited to Mrs. Whosit’s
social; there will be no obituaries because there is the
possibility that one might be longer than that of some other
i person, or might omit a pallbearer; no weather reports,
because everyone knows it’s 15 degrees cooler (or warmer)
at the lake than in town; no legal notices, because they cost
money and the judges and the lawyers want to keep the estate
costs as low as possible; no minutes of public meetings,
because they are too expensive and nobody reads them except
taxpayers.
There will be no news stories of happenings on new stores
or new people because someone may get a little free publicity
and that’s not fair to anyone else who doesn’t have his name
in the paper that week. If a Democrat comes to town it will
be ignored, for fear of offending ths Republicans. If a Re­
publican comes to town, same thing.,1
There will be no sports stories, for in every game there
is a winner and a loser, and we can’t mention losers in the
perfect paper. There is also the chance that the paper would
forget to mention that Junior Glutz scored three points, and
Mr. and Mrs. Glutz would never forgive the editor for such
an omission.
Most important, there will be no editorials or columns; no
attempt to explain or to comment or to lead the community.
This is the best way possible to offend people, so let's cut it
out right now. Who cares if we have a better community? Who
cares if someone attempts to speakfor the people? Who cares,
if the newspaper doesn’t care?
gSi

So there we have it—the perfect newspaper. No news, no
pictures, no editorials, no ads. Take an imperfect newspaper
and color it black and blue from the lumps it takes while doing
its Job. Take the perfect newspaper and color it nothing­
leave it blank and drab and colorless, for that’s exactly what
it is.
Not only is it a perfect newspaper, but you’ll still be able
to wrap your garbage and line the birdcage with it.
What more do you want?-'

�Survey seeks effects of inflation
A powerful spotlight has been focused on infla­
tion in Michigan by U. S. Senator Robert P. Griffin
and the resulting glare already has produced, re­
sults.
.
Through his "Operation Price-Tag" survey of
thousands of the state's families, Griffin not only
is dramatically illustrating the skyrocketing cost
of living, but also securing positive examples of
inflations' ruinous effects.
Griffin, a Congressman for nearly 10 years until
his appointment to the Senate last May, said he
believed this was the first such widespread attempt
to solicit opinions of wage earners and housewives
on the causes and effects, of inflation.

ormation in the formulation of anti­
to use the infoq
inflation legislation and for speech material.
The survey asks consumers to report what effect
inflation has had on family budgets. It also asks
for their opinions on the causes of inflation and for
possible suggestions to combat it.
From Midland, a minister wrote: "We stopped
buying real butter three months ago. "
A teacher from Kalamazoo reported: "The cost
of books and tuition, even in this last year, has
priced college out of the reach of many of my for­
mer students. "
From Escanaba, a housewife exclaimed: "Every­
thing may be going up, but oh! the taxes. "
Another housewife from Prudenville asked:"When
are the prices for basic meats, milk and bread go­
ing to stop climbing?"
In Detroit, a metal worker complained: "I paid
$65.00 a month rent four yean ago. Then it was
increased to $85. 00 and now I've just received no­
tice that it will jump to $125. 00 on November 1st,
With interest rates so high and money so tight, I
can't afford to buy a house."
Griffin said that eight out of every ten persons
who have responded so far are emphatic about food
prices upsetting their budgets more than any other

single factor. Other items that have increased no­
ticeably are insurance rates, medical services,
clothing prices and costs for labor and machinery.

"Your food bill rose a full five percent in the
first six months of this year compared with the
same period in 1965. Food accounted for onefourth of the cost of living increase, ’ Griffin said.
The most expensive item on the grocery list is
eggs--up 18 percent over July and 22 percent for
the year.
Senator Griffin said. "For more than four months
now I have been fighting in the U. S. Senate for fi­
nancial responsibility in government. We simply
cannot have guns and butter at the same time."
"Any economic sanctions President Johnson im­
poses will be useless without drastic curtailment of
record government spending.
"People responding to my questionaire have
pointed this out more often that not. ” he said.
Griffin, who is battling to keep his U. S. Senate
seat in a close contest with Democrat G. Mennon
Williams, said he is especially encouraged by the
diligent concern of housewives for inflation.
"Secretary of Agriculture Orville Freeman ha
inadvertently disclosed bow the administration
feels about this important problem facing our
country, ” the Senator said. Secretary Freeman ad­
vised Democratic candidates at a confidential
meeting to "slip, slide and duck" if faced withtbe
issue of the increased cost of living.
* Don't get caught in an argument on prices be­
' tween housewives and farmers," Freeman advised.
But if you do, take the farmer's side. The house­
wives aren't so well organized. ”
"Secretary Freeman and the Democratic candi­
dates will get a rude awakening &lt;
November 8u
to just how well organized the he
:wives of this
country really are, Griffin said.
Freeman stirred up a hornets nest last March

OBITUARIES

Letters to the Editor
"Tribote to a Worthy Pastor"
I would like to take this opportunity to pay trib­
ute to one whom I believe has been a true "Minis­
ter of God" in our community, the Rev. Max Glad­
ding.

His kind manner and deep spiritual desire to
.bring
-------his
. people
.. into
.
" itionship with
a personal• relai
Christ, is very commendable. Our fifellowship has
been of the highest order of Christiai
Brethren, and our labors together leave many fond
memories.

We, the Church of the Nazarene and her pastor,
feel privileged tn have had the Rev. Gladding and
his family in the First Methodist Church parsonage
these past two yean. May God richly bless them
in their new charge and give them health to carry
on this worthy ministry.
Earl L. Frost, Pastor
Church of the Nazarene of Nashville

Dear Editor:
Thanks in great part to the support of America
newspapers, last year we were able to turn over $5. 5
million to UNICEF for 1965, as against the previous
high of $3.7 million for 1964.
This was the more gratifying as in 1966, its
twentieth anniversary year, the Nobel Peace Prize­
winning United Nations Children's Fund still operates
with an annual budget equivalent to what is spent on
world armament in two bouts of one day.

Callihan of Route 1, Hastings was the lucky one on the 5th race, winning
$100. Congratulations to Marian.
Our parking area on the south side of the store is finally getting the face
lifting we have hoped for all summer. It’s being black-topped along with
the side street running parallel with it and the parking area in the back.
This I'm sure you"ll find will be a big help in shopping. No more mud

it and office practice. The amount being .ought
is $4,140 which represents 50 percent of the salary
in these areas. " It is somewhat doubtful," said
Wolff, "that these will be allowed, considering
that our present teachers do not meet the two-year
requirement for vc national teachers regarding bus­
iness work experience. "
Although the Lions contributed $1,000 toward an
electric scoreboard for the athletic field, it will
be necessary for the school district to add another
$400 to $600 or more, before such an addition can
be made. The board ; tve a nod of approval at
Morida
K's meeting, and further discussion bethe Lions
wgflin, lard and
________
.. club
...will
- be made
before the equipment is purchased. The Maple
Valley school is the only one in the Expressway
league without an electric scoreboard. When the
new scoreboard is purchased it will be with the
understanding that it would be moved from the
Fuller street athletic field to the Junior-Senior
high school at such time when a new field might
be ready.
The 11th annual community school workshop
will be held in Flint on October 26-27-28 and it
is hoped representatives from the Maple Valley
district will attend. Various schools in the Flint
system will be visited showing the school-commun­
ity operation.

The Maple Valley district will, during the 1966
67 school year, receive an additional $3,151.72 in
state aid as an additional allowance on the 1965­
66 aid for transportation.
Considerable time was given to discussion on
the adviseability of the Maple Valley schools con­
tinuing with work toward acceptance in the North
Central Association. Leading his discussion were
High School principal Forrest Rinehart and Supt.

A progress report of 118 students in the early elementary grades on basic skills tests, discussion of
federal reimbursements under the vocational act
for partial salaries of commercial teachers, voting
to accept one teacher' resignation and accepting
a contribution of $1,000 from the Nashville Lions
club toward a scoreboard for the Fuller street ath­
letic field are just a few of the items bandied at
die meeting Monday evening of the Maple Valley
Board of Education meeting held in Supt. Carroll
Wolff's office.
During the three-hour session the board appro&gt;ved
paying bills of $9, $68.00 from the general fund
and $7, 723.62 from the Building and Site fund.
Approval was given of cashing a savings deposit
cetpt of $21, 327. 94 and reinvesting the balanc
was also approved, along with transfering to the
September payroll account the amount of
$24, 807.15 and the October 15 payroll account an
amount of $24,432.24.
The board also approved the interest payment on
the 1964 bond issue in the amount of $23, 071.41
along with the postage and handling charge of
$28.64 ~ iking a total of $23,100.05 and cashing
a savin;

accepted.

bout a third of these are act
traL and the smaller schools---------------------------difficult to meet qualifications than the larger
schools, primarily because of curriculum restrictions
the higher standards required, the higher qualified
teachers, higher salaries which are a natural out­
growth, and the more comprehensive programs ,
which folloy. Another important factor concerns
whether the community wants to attain these higher
goals. For instance, all teachers must have at least
a bachelor's degree, must have 20 semester hours of
education, and all must have at least 18 semester
hours in the fields they are teaching.
Also the buildtags must meet certain specifica­
tions, and a number of other qualifications are re­
quired. However, in the summation of the situ­
ation, it was the opinion of both Mr. Wolff and Mr.
Rinehart that the Maple Valley district should con­
tinue toward meeting the qualifications, and re­
commended that sometime during the 1967-68
year a committee of educations be invited to visit
the schooL

�if legislation which was not in the best interests of
M irhigan was the continue ncv.
Realistically, as in the case of the $12.2 million
highway funds, it raises an ethical question for the
federal government to use considerable sums of
project money in a "do this or lose that" proposi• tion.
Michigan Press Association

POUR YEAR FIGHT
Four-year terms for Michigan's Governor and
memben of the Sute Senate will start with those
officials elected Nov. 8.
. If House of. Representatives members had their
way, they too would be starting Jonger terms in
January.
The by-play involved at the end of the regular
legislative session over this question brought out

FORCE "IMPROVEMENTS”
Influence of Washington upon sute affairs is now
The use of the dollar as "bait" by the federal
rvnsrAwwwiin n*et uoere in HAttin

iated and many other segments of law enacted.
These were the result largely of the federal gov­
ernment saying, "The money is here if you want to
add to it and use it in these specific ways."

some of the age-old animosity, or at least rivalry
between the two houses.

"Incentive" would probably best describe this ap­
proach, but another word is needed for the tack ta­
ken in recent years.
The 1966 Legislature adopted billboard and junk­
yard control measures this year because federal au
Authorities said highway funds would be partially
withheld if such laws were not on the books within
a specified time.
Now the same threat is made for the withholding
of highway monies if the sute does not improve its
traffic safety programs.
Since the federal highway "contribution" to
Michigan is tome $122 million annually and 10 per
cent of this would be threatened by failure to act,
legislative concern will once again be sharply fo­
cused on safety proposals.

A Constitutional amendment would be required
to give House members fbur-year terms. A propos­
al to put the question before voters in November
got through the House in the last days of the session
but failed to get much serious consideration in the
Senate.
Actually it was pretty much ignored. This was
intentional by the Senate committee to which it
was assigned. Needless to say the committee was
hounded by a number of House members for sever­
al days and was considerably less than popular when
it failed to consider the matter in time to bring the
. proposal to the floor.
. Some Republicans in the House opposed the idea,
saying it was brought forth too late. Candidates
had already filed for office and presumably a fouryear term would have drawn more contestants, they
said, among other reasons.

Value of tome additional traffic «afety measures
can hardly be questioned, especially in view of the
continually rising death and accident toll in Michi­
gan.
What must be asked, however, is where will the

Proponents of the change were very disappointed
it was not even voted on in the Senate, although
many capitol observers noted from the start that it
was a futile attempt at self-perpetuation.

Four-year terms for Senator* while maintaining
two-year elections for the House of Representatives
brought back memories of the days when the Sen­
ate was designated the "upper house" and the House
was called the "lower chamber."
Noted one wag. "Approval of this idea in the
Senate would be like, the generals agreeing to per­
mit enlisted men in the officers' mess. *

WINNING COMBINATION
A unique idea for continued promotion of Mich­
igan will be held over for the third straight year in
the 1967 observance of Michigan Week.
This is the theme, "Michigan: Dynamic in World ,
Progress. " Until 1965, a new tfjeme was selected
each year for the annual week-long observance.
Then came the real push to get the bragging a­
bout Michigan attention outside the state and be­
yond the seven days of the official program.
Since the 1965 theme still has many possibilities '
for Liternational impact, many community organ­
izations and individuals urged it be used again for
the 14th annual Michigan Week to be held next
May 21-27.

Local
Mr. and Mrs. M. J. Perry called on his cousin ...
Mrs. Oren Foss at a hospital at Battle Creek Sunday
afternoon; on their way home the Perrys calledon
Mt. and Mts. Clifford Babcock and her mother, Mrs.
Rilla Whitmore.

Jeffrey Wieler, son of Mr. and Mrs. Laity Weiler,
celebrated his 4th birthday September 29. Guests
for icecream and cake were his grandparents, Mr.
and Mrs. Glen Ramsey and Mr. and Mts. Walter '
Weiler, his uncle, David Ramsey and cousin Vir­
ginia McVey. Jeff received many nice gifts.

For anyone who Hasn’t attended the Maple Val­
ley home football games, perhaps he doesn't rea­
lize that the activities of the Maple Valley Band
Boosters for this school year have begun, with the
operation of the two booths at the field.
Last month the organization ordered two new
instruments for the 6and--an oboe and a bassoon.
One of the projects of the Band Boosters each
year is to provide scholarships assisting band mem­
bers to attend summer music camps. At last week's
meeting the first donation for the 1967 scholarships
came from the Vermontville Evening Guild. Mem­
bers of the group appreciate this generous contrib­
ution.
The regular meeting date for the Maple Valley
Band Boosters is the fourth Monday of each month
of the school year. Bill Fox is president this year.
All parents of band students and others who would
like to help the Band Booster activities are cor­
dially invited to attend these meetings.

Chevelle SS 396 Sport Coupe

NOW, as many kinds as there are kinds of .drivers to enjoy them—from the SS 396
(the Chevelle for the DRIVING MAN) to the brand new Concours Custom Wagon!
Long live Chevelle! And its trim dimensions,
sharp performance and great maneuverability.
For '67, there're a new grille, new wraparound
taillights and distinctive sheet-metal changes.
The effect is a newer, more contemporary look.
As for specific models, one is completely new:
the sumptuous Concours Custom Wagon shown
below, featuring the rich look of wood outside.
Then there’s the SS 396 with a 396-cubic-inch
Turbo-Jet V8, special suspension and an even

more remarkable capacity for delighting the stout
of heart. Other models, too: Malibu, 300 Deluxe
and 300, all with Body by Fisher.
In addition, every '67 Chevelle carries a multi­
tude of new safety features such as a
GM-developed energy-absorbing steering
column, four-way hazard warning flasher, dual
master cylinder brake system with warning light.
Try a Quick-Size Chevelle at your Chevrolet
dealer’s.

For '67, everything new that
could happen . . . happened!

�Letter Te The Editor
October 16, 1966
for our centennial celebration and we should be try­
ing to decide just when we want it to be.
Some of the firemen were talking to me about
this the other day and they seemed to feel that next
year would be a good one to call the centennial
and to get things going.
If every organization in town were responsible for
a part of the preparations it shouldn't be too hard
on any one group.
I’ll start growing my beard on New Year's Day.
Want to have a long gray job for the big celebra­
tion.

it few weeks, since I heard'that
These past
heard mat our post
p
office in Nashville is a hundred years old, 1 have
to find out just when the centennial of
u—. . ——- is.
Certainly, there was somewhat of a town here be­
fore the post office department would consider put­
ting an office in. They don’t just put a post office
upin the middle of the woods.
Wilma DeCamp let me take a book of hers that
has the history of Barry County in it and the book
said that the village was here before 1866. In fact,
it was in 1866 that the people of the settlement got
together and formed a school, with a building and
a teacher.
* The village was not incorporated until 1869.
Now come the question... When is the centenni­
al? Is it computed from the date of the incorpora­
tion of the village, from the time people first lived
here, from the time they first elected officials?
It would seem logical to take it from some time
before the actual incorporation. The village was
here years before it was incorporated. There were
mills here and other business places, as well
as
dwellings before 1869. That was the year the rail­
road came through here and that is wnat put Nash­
ville on the map.
In view of these things we should be getting readv

Norma and Football
I attended a football game at Big
Rapids Saturday night with my hus­
band and two sons. Afterwards, we
compared notes, and as soon as I
began my rendition, my three guys
groaned en-cborus, and immediate­
ly concluded that the money for ray
ticket had been a complete waste.
So, mostly for my own satisfaction
I decided to list all the things I
observed at the game. I'll let you
form your own opinion.
1— The Ferris State College band
uniforms are beautiful, and they
are becoming to all the various
shapes and sizes of the band
members.
2— The muon was 'big and. orange
when we got to the game, but
it got smaller and whiter as time
went on.
3— Tuba players get into their
curled-up plumbing equipment
somewhat like a woman gets
into a dress.
4— The cheerleaders in red looked
cuter than the cheerleaders in
white. (Son Number Two agreed
on that point!)
5— However, the cheerleaders in
red had undies that didn't match
their outlies.
6— Our guys had yellow jackets and
the other guys had yellow suits

Council

Dear Mr. Editor, When I returned to school this fall I discovered
that the new Director of the Wesley Foundation on
campus was a former minister at the Nashville Meth­
odist Church. I thought you might be interested in
this fact.
The Methodist Student Center serves between
7,000 and 8.000 Methodist students, plus other non­
Methodist students. In 1960-61 the present center
was built and in 1963 the University Methodist
Church opened its doors to us. These fine accomo­
dations are due to the generosity of Methodists
throughout Michigan.
Rev. Pohl assumed his duties the last week in
September and has since shown the leadership need­
ed in such a position.
Sincerely,
Elizabeth King,
Vermontville.
MSU Senior
P. S. I am sending you the clipping from the East
Lansing Town Courier.

It looks as if we are going to have quite a dedi­
cation for our new post office building in Nashville.
The Chamber of Commerce is assisting Mrs. De Camp with the plans for the dedication and she has
sent the plans to Washington for approval. Congress­
man Paul Todd will be here as will many other dig­
nitaries. In all it should be quite an affair.

New Methodist pastor

The following thing we have taken from the Di­
mondale News. I think it is a particularity good bit.

Our yellow was prettiest, of
course.
7— 1 learned from the man behind
me what a “beautiful play" is.
It's when six players take a
running dive and all 'land' on
top of one another.
8— Six guys in a spread out heap
beautiful
play.
9—When the crowd got restless..
three men in black would dash
out with metal flags on skinny
poles which they would stick
into the ground with great cere­
mony. This was choreographed
almost as well as a June Tay10— College girls wear their hair
either in a shingled butch, or
else banging, ironed out, the
full length ol their backs. There
is no in-between style.
11— One cheerleader was behind all
the time. The drummer beat out
the tempo for her, but she ap­
parently was set to a slower
metronome.
12—There was a guy on our left
who was continually blowing a
horn which sounded like a sick
moose in mating season. He was
continually answered by a hornHower on our right. (Apparent­
ly the two sounds were not
right for each other. They never

did get together.)
13— When the band members sat
down behind a brick wall, I
could see the rows of pom-pons
on their hats, and it reminded
me of parade horses all dolled
up with thfic same thingaznajigs in their manee
14— Some of the college kids wear
so little to football games, I
should think they would freeze.
15— Some of the old parents wear
so much to football games, I
should think they would meh.
One man had a quOt doubled
around him. I didn't think at
the time; he might have been
a relative of Sitting Bull.
16— 1 learned all the cheers (just
like I used to learn all the tap
dances when I was a kid and
had to sit on the sideline with
- a bum foot.)
17— The band members net only
looked nice, they played well.
18— My nose got cold. Su did my
posterior.
Personally, I think that’s quite a
list for that amount of money.
Please da not send me any informa­
tion on football. If I paid any more
attention to that, see bow many
other things I would miss.
Your roving football reported,
Norma Figg (and perhaps
rd better rove far!)

Sept. 22,1966

Postmaster Wilma DeCamp has been commended
by William H. Neal, National Director of the U. S.
Savings Bonds Division, for her leadership and ser­
vice to the Treasury Department's School Savings
Program.
.................................
In a letter to the Postmaster, Mr. Neal said "The
mission of School Savings is in many ways more
important today than at any timp since the end of
World War IL Today's young people, growing up
in a world whose troubles admit to no easy solu­
tions, need grounding in the simple truths of their
American heritage as prepartation for the chananges they face. The lesson of thrift is important
in Itself; nut it becomes even more so when it also
involves the investment of dimes and quarters, of­
ten saved at a sacrifice, in the future of our coun try through Savings Stamps and Bonds."
School Savings, which operates in Nashville and
Vermontville schools, is a part of the nationwide
Savings Bonds Program. Mt. Neal told the Postmas­
ter that "the good service you render plays a major
part in its success. " Savings Stamps in five denom­
inations, from 10 cents to $5, are on sale at all
times at the post office and on Stamp Day in schools
Postmaster DeCamp commented that "the sale of
Savings Stamps to the public--especially to young
people through the School Savings Program--is a
service we are proud to offer. I know of no finer
iway
\ to
‘ ‘build
’• ■'
w
for a ‘better tomorrow than by training
our youth in the sound American heritage of thrift/1

of Western Michigan, was
graduated from the Univ­
ersity of Michigan where
he attended on a Regents

In addition to the cards for addresses, a special
notice advising each resident of his local Zip Code number will be delivered.

In completing the cards, only the street address

Postmaster DeCamp emphasized the importance
of including a return address on the front of the
cards so they may be returned after addresses have
been coded.
Incomplete addresses which are submitted but

as those in a city like Washington, D. C. which

�Secretary Udall, to be here Friday
Stewart L, Udall, Secretary of the Interior of the
United States, will be in Nasnville on Friday. Mr.
Udall will be accompanied by Congressman Paul
H. Todd, who instigated the visit
Plans, including two canoe trips, for the visit of
Secretary of the Interior Stewart L. Udall to the
Third District were announced today through the
office of Congressman Paul H. Todd, Jr. (D-Mich.)
Udall, who was invited to the Third District by
Todd, will visit the proposed Fort Custer state park
near Battle Creek and the Thomapple River near
Nashville.
The Secretary is scheduled to arrive at the W. K.
Kellogg Regional Airport at Battle Creek around 9
am onFriday, October 21.
He then will tour the Fort Custer park area, visi­
ting Lawler Lake and other sites at which park de­
velopment is planned.
Udall and Todd will then take a short canoe trip
down the Kalamazoo River where it runs through
the northwest part of the proposed park area. After

putting asnore, around 10:15 am., Todd ana Udall
will hold a press conference on the banks of the riv­
er.
•
. •
Todd said the purpose of the Fort Custer trip was
to give Udall a clear idea of the potential of the
area for a state park and to provide a clear demon­
stration of the pollution problem on the Kalamazoo
River.
Todd has worked out, through the General S e r vices Administration and the Department of the In­
terior, a plan by which the 6,000 acres of land at
Fort Custer, now declared excess to the needs of the
Federal Government, can be transferred to the State
of Michigan. The plan involves trading Fort Custer
land for state forest land, at a 50% cost saving to
the state.
Todd and Udall will then drive to Nashville,
in
Barry County, for a quick look at the Thornapple
River, which runs through a number of communities
in Eaton and Barty counties.
On a recent visit to the area, Todd noted that the

River had great potential for recreation and conser­
vation development, and Udall's visit is expected
to spur development of such plans.
The pair will arrive in Nashville around 11 am
and will take another quick canoe trip down the
U AW

1

the Boy Scout Hall, which is on the banks of the
Thomapple River in Nashville.
Todd said the River offered an ideal area for de­
velopment, particularly between Nashville and Ver­
montville and in Nashville.
"There is no reason why sound and sensible devel­
opment of rivets should be confined to larger com­
munities, " Todd said. "This is precisely why Sec­
retary Udall is coming to Nashville. The River is as
lovely there as any other river, and he ought to get
the chance to see what can be done to develop it.
Udall will leave from Lansing for a visit to the
Upper Peninsula after his two stops in the Third Dis­
trict.

Christmas Season at Fort Custer
The football season is barely underway and the
trees are just starting to take on their fall colors, but
it's already the Christmas Season at the Fort Custer
State Home near Battle Creek. The Home, a Sure
supponea institution housing more than thirteen
hundred mentally retarded children and adults,
started its annual Christmas gift drive on October x,
under the leadership of Richard G. Kenney, Director
of Community Relations and Volunteer Services.
According to Mt. Kenney, "With so many patients
needing to be remembered on Christmas, It's a
'must' to start early. Especially since most of them
would be completely forgotten if it weren't for the
generosity of Volunteers throughout the State.
In
September we start compiling lists showing each pa­
tient's name and the three gift items that be partic­
ularly wants Santa Claus to bring him. The nursing
staff helps those who cannot make their wishes
known. It’s quite a struggle, every year. Some of
the kids start out asking for gifts of live ponies, tel­
evision sets and the like. And it really gets to be a
battle of wits to find our what they would like in
the stuffed animal and picture-book line. Like kids
everywhere, when they say they want a pony they
actually want a pony.
"After each of our thirty-nine wards have sub­
mitted a list of gifts to me, then letters are sent to
hundreds of individuals and groups around the state
to see who will be generous enough to provide them.
forw
Each year groups step forward
and fill most of o u r
needs, but on the basis of
tience we know
that some of our efforts wi_______________________
one reason or
another. for
reason we try to build up a sizeable volume of back-up gift items that we can issue to those patients thaTare still forgotten at the
last moment. These are items that we find have
universal acceptance in each age group. And with
residents ranging in age from just a few months to
folks in their late seventies, the list is quite long. "

PRE-TRIAL DATA
t
Questions of newspaper coverage of criminal ac­
tivities and court proceedings are discussed in many
quarters these days.
Biggest question involved is whether an accused
man can get a fair trial, as defined by recent court
decisions, with the amount of publicity circulating
details of the crime.
Another basic question: Should or can the courts,
or anyone else, restrict the press in its attempt to
inform the public? Both the Michigan and American
Bar Associations have had these questions before
them in recent weeks.
Michigan newsmen note that is seldom much of a
problem in this state.
Almost a year ago, Michigan Supreme Court Jus­
tice Thomas M. Kavanagh and Attorney General
Frank J. Kelley both agreed there was little diffi­
culty of this sort in Michigan.
Both indicated any guidelines deemed necessary
should be directed at Ute law enforcement family
rather than at the press itself.

Guidelines set down last year by the U, S. Justice
Department said law enforcement spokesmen should
refrain from making any sutements which might
"influence the outcome of a defendant's triaL "Jus­
tice Kavanagh indicated these guidelines might suf­
fice.
"I have not seen arc consistent outcry against
these guidelines as inf inging freedom of the press,
he said.

Kelley told newsmen any curbs he might recom­
mend would be aimed at prosecuting attorneys and
law officials. "I have no business telling you how to

Judge George C. Edwards Jr. of the U. S. Circuit­
Court feels strongly that restricting court informa­
tion is "the most dangerous threat to thek American
ideal of free speech and press since the days of Joe
McCarthy. He argues that such dangers become ob­
vious when "we give thought to the problems posed
in past (and present) history by prosecutions corrup­
ted against the public interest by organized crime or
by such pressures as the Ku Klux Klan in some states.

A former editor of a prison newspaper, now par­
oled, wrote that given the choice of trials without
reporters or with thdm, he would choose the "pro­
tection" of reporters and risks of publicity rather
than face police treatment in secret.
As the courts have said, most notably in the Dr.
Sam Sheppard and Jack Ruby cases recently, the
rights of the accused must be guaranteed and pro­
tected. So also must the constitutional guarantee of
freedom of the press. In both cases if police and
court officials had acted within laws and procedures
already in effect, there would be no issue of retrial.

BETTER YOUTH
Emphasis upon education beyond the high school
level becomes greater every year.
For this reason. More Education, More Opportun­
ity, has become the title for a new organization
aimed at helping youth continue their schooling and
thus become more valuable members of their com­
munities.
MEMO, as the organization promotes itself, is
currently surveying all of Michigan's 120, 000-plus
high school seniors to learn teow they rate them­
selves as future citizens.
Students are asked whether they plan to continue
their education. If not, why not; and what might be
done to encourage others to go beyond the high
school training level?

Answers provided by the questionaire might lead
to encouragement for a student in financial need;
just moral support for additional study; or direction­
al guidance in the field of interest.
A side benefit of the study could also effect Mich­
igan's school dropout problem, since the students
are also being asked what they think could be done
to^ncourage^thersj^Hnisj^j^i^^gjiygn.

From initial advertising around the state. MEMO
director Gordon A. Sabine, a vice president of Mich­
igan State University, reports that about 1, 000 stu­
dents had questions.about the new organization's
activities.
.
.
The forms of assistance MEMO will be involved
in will vary in each chse. As Dr. Sabine notes, 700
of the first responses were referred to colleges.
"We're sure it had some impact in other casestoo,
he said. "Sometimes it just takes a nudge to let the
student know that someone is interested, someone
believes in him."

At the recent Chamber of Commerce meeting it
was decided, after considerable discussion pro and
con, to continue with the drawings, but to hold the
money at $25. per week. This was decided in order
to help build up our treasury so that when we have
a need to help induce new industry, or partake in a
worth-while community project, we will have a
more adequate reserve.
From time to time there wiU very likely be other
projects and give-a-way programs. At the present,
-------------------- — e

the Chamber
of Commerce
is sponsoring
a drawing
for a 21" Color Television to 'be ;iven away on Sat­
urday, December 29. Donations or tickets may

given and tickets obtained from most any merchant
or from Geneva Brumm, secretary of the Chamber
of Commerce.
The drawings will be at the same time with all
present rules applying, on Friday nights, only the
money remains at $25.

YOU in Washington
Although the present Congressman doesn’t like to say so out loud, he's
been a 90% “Yes Lyndon” Congressman since taking office. His 1965
voting record indicated both gratitude and recognition of the Presi­
dent’s coattail victory. On key roll call votes, he gave 88% support of
LBJ Domestic Programs. In 1966, he went along with key LBJ arm
twisting proposals 94% of die time.

During his freshman term, he has been responsible for only 2U£
piece of legislation.
Incidentally, your so-called hard working Congressman has also
become a part-time Congressman. His voting record in recent weeks
is an incredibly low 53%. His entire voting record, this session of Con­
gress, isn’t much better ... a little over. 70% ... far below even the
average congressman.

Compare this with Garry

Brown's effective record
of leadership
Senator Garry Brown has compiled a remarkable record for service to the people
of Michigan. His achievements, in two Senate terms, include prime sponsorship
of some
which have become laws of our state.
Among these are: Laws establishing the Boards of Control of our State Universities;
providing for the operation of the State Highway Commission, defining the powers
and duties of the new State Department of Education; recodification of the Savings
and Loan Law; and the Civil Rights Act of 1964. He has shown by his actions that
he willprovide a new dimension of leadership and representation for the people
of the Third District Compere this with the present congressman’s legislative rec­
ord. Decide which candidate will 'most effectively and forthrightly represent you in
Congress.

�Field Day for Todd and Vdall

Congressman Paul Todd and Secretary of the Interior Stewart Udall appeared to enjoy
their canoe trip and the greetings with the local folks on Friday. Linda Slade posed as
an Indian maid and after she presented the guests with gifts of maple syrup, Secretary Udall
in return presented her with cat tails he picked on his sojourn down the rivet. In a casual
atmosphere the two ate a sack lunch and held a press conference, all along the banks of
the Thomapple Rivet. The weather man was kind and all seemed to enjoy the day.
--Nashville News Photos

Secretary of the Interior of the United States, Stew­
art Udall, and congressman Paul Todd, had a field
day last Friday when they inspected the Thomapple
River. Both men came prepared for out of doors ac­
tivities. They were both dressed in camping type
clothing and wore hiking boots.
Toda and Udall held a press conference on the
banks of the Thomapple in front of the Scout Hall in
Nashville.
Secretary Udall said that he saw a great future for
communities such as ours. He commended the peo­
ple of the area for having the foresight to be con­
cerned about the river and he admonished them to
work to take full advantage of its recreational facil­
ities.
Todd said, "In a sense, we must turn the clock
back. We must see to it that our water becomes as
pure as it was before civilization contaminated it. "
Todd said that if we continue to work along these
lines our water will be cleaner in five years than it
is now. "Perhaps the kids can swim in the river as
they used to, " he Mid.
When Secretary Udall was asked just what chance
a small community, such as this, bad of being able

to get funds to clean up the river and to enter into
conservation and recreation program, he answered,
"There is nothing that can't tie done if people set
together."
Mr. Udall said he saw a great future for places
where local —
_____
initiate conservation ofswater.
He suggested that a program of cooperation between
the federal, state and local governments should be
the most satisfactory way to finance a conservation
and recreation program. He said that perhaps rough­
ly a third should come from each agency.
Todd proposed a Conservation Development Bank,
designed to make loans to states interested in ac­
quiring land for future conservation and recreation
development. Todd suggested that funds for the bank
could come from receipts of sale of products from
National Forest land.
Todd said that with these funds available a state
could act immediately to acquire land before spec­
ulators could drive prices up or before land values
rise in the ordinary course of events.
Todd and Udall, both outdoorsmen, did a beau­
tiful job of canoe paddling. Both men are canoe en­
thusiasts and each seemed to enjoy the opportunity

to dip a paddle in the Thomapple.
Newspapermen and television cameramen follow­
ed along in canoes that were provided for them.
Todd and Udall, old hands at canoeing, got ahead
of the reporters and slowed down at one point so
they could catch up with them.
Udall suggested a stop to pick cattails on the
banks of the river and when the two men landed at
the scout hall and were greeted by Linda Slade, they
were so impressed with the little Indian that Secre­
tant Udall presented her with his cattail bouquet.
Linda was costumed in an Indian dress and gave
the Secretary and the congressman each a bottle of
maple syrup.
Because the two men were on a tight schedule,
they ate a sack lunch as they answered questions
from the reporters and photographers.
On hand to greet the dignitaries were Village pres­
ident, Jim Rizor, along with Linda Slade, Maple

This the second and lest week of the IGA Train­
load Sale, one of the really big sales events of the
year with IGA and Makers. Seems to me we've un­
loaded two trainloads of stuff already and got more
coming. This is a fine time to stock up on canned
goods carrying the label you know and trust.
The Races are still producing plenty of winners
every week. Dorothy Corkins was a $10 winner last
week, along with lots of $5 and $2 winners. Maybe
at a later date we can find room to publish a com­
plete list of our winners.
Our town got some national publicity last week
with the visit of Sec. of Interior, Mr. Udall and
Congressman Paul Todd. This can do no barm, no
matter what the reasons or results may be. I cer­
tainly hope something can be done to the river as
a result of this visit and publicity. At least some
pretty big people now know where Nashville is lo­
cated and that the people are interested in improv­
ing the town.

Nashville

�Musical program •
enjoyed by club
Approximately 40 members and guests attended
the meeting of the Nashville Woman's Literary club
on Wednesday evening, October 19. The meeting
was held in the home of Mr. and Mn. A. E. Halvar­
son.
The business meeting was conducted by Mrs.Glennard Showalter. Following the reading of the reports
of the secretary and treasurer, two new members
were received into the club. Mrs. Margaret Swiger
and Miss Chariot Sours became members.
Mrs. Lawrence Tonkin gave a report on the work
of the Project Committee. They have proposed a
three-fold program for the year for the club, in­
cluding work for the school, Putnam Library and for
the community. Suggestions made by them include
the following: 1. A sign on the corner of M-66 and
Reed Street indicating the direction to the Maple
Valley School 2. Formation of a donation pro­
gram to scholarships, with $25 being donated to
various interest areas, and 3. Painting and other
necessary work in the library. ~
To carry out the work for these proposed projects
they suggest the sale of candy in cans, possibly
with the idea of Christmas gut-giving and the bold­
ing of a Card Party in January.
A discussion was held in regard to the possibility
of giving Christmas gifts to patients at the Fort Cus­
ter State Home for the mentally retarded at Battle
Creek. Mrs. John Boughton offered to write to the
home and report back at the November meeting
any information gained about such a project.
Mrs. Halvarson then introduced the musical group
from Olivet. They included Mr. George Hanson,
pianist; Mrs. W. Wynn York, violinist; Mb. Edward
Speare, cellist, and Mr. Howard Lyon, violist. They
played three selections and these were particularly
enjoyed by the group. Mrs. Hanson and Mrs. Lyon
accompanied them as guests.
Tea was served from a table which was decora­
ted with fall floweB, candles and fruit. Mrs. Ennis
Fleming and Mrs. Cecil Barrett served on the tea
committee. Mrs. Richard Bogan also was a member
of the committee. The November meeting will be held at the home
of Mrs. Norman Sandbrook and Mrs. Elben Carpen­
ter will present a book review.

Zoning hire for industry
This is the second article written by Allen Brace;
the first of which appeared in the News last week.
Zoning can help preserve whar is good and desir­
able in a community such as Nashville. It also
promotes community stability and it facilitates the
development of good road systems, fire protection,
and good policing systems.
Zoning is a lure for good tax-paying industry.
An enforced zoning ordinance can also help save
taxes, by knowing future developments, public
funds are better used for positive, constructive
measures designed to save the entire community.
Outside of a restricted development, if one were
to build a $20,000 home in Nashville at the present
time, there is nothing -to stop another from build­
ing a tar paper shack next door. Or someone put­
ting a nouy factory on the lot in back. Zoning a­
long with a building code would protect the bomeAs an example ot some of the features of a zouowner.

ing ordinance, here is a quote from a prepared or­
dinance:
__
1. Every parcel ot land upon which a dwelling is
hereafter erected or placed shall contain not less
than 15,000 square feet of area.
2. A dwelling erected hereafter shall have at
least 10 ft of side yard from property line and ga­
rages shall be erected not less than 5 ft from lot
line.
3. Pertaining to industry: No noise created from
such industry shall exceed the level of ordinary con­
versation at the boundaries of the premises.
4. Every building used for industrial use shall be
no less than 50 ft from highway right of way and
shall have a side yard of no less than 25 ft.
5. Trailer coaches hereafter restricted as a per­
manent dwelling unless they are located in a duly
licensed trailer park. Property owners may live in
a trailer while erecting a permanent dwelling by
obtaining a permit from the Zoning Board.

The registered Holstein herd of 17 cows, owned
by Carl E. Hefflebower, Woodland, has been e n rolled in Dairy Herd Improvement Registry produc­
tion testing, reports the Holstein Friesian Associa­
tion of America.
Usually called DH1R, the program is the official
production recording plan conducted by the national
Holstein Association in cooperation with the state
agricultural colleges. Information gained from this
breed improvement service becomes a permanent
part of Association records.
DHIR testing was initiated in 1956 to bring the
DH1A records of registered Holstein cows into the .
breed improvement and recognition programs of the
national Holstein organization.
Registered Holstein cows in participating herds
are automatically credited with both 305-day and
complete lactation records, as received by the Hol­
stein Association on punch cards from the regional
DHIA central processing laboratory.
Production data is published for reference by Hol­
stein dairymen everywhere as an aid to improve the
quality of their herds.

and firing points for zeroing m will be available at
the range. Hunters are requested to have all fire­
arms unloaded and actions open when entering the
range area.
There will also be a pancake and sausage break­

only do we have to pay for the keep of the prisoners
but we also have to pay for the transportation (gas,
car, etc) and we have to pay the wages of personnel
to transport the prisoners.
It would not take long, at this rate, to pay for a
new jail in Hastings.
The longer we wait to start construction of a jail
the more it will cost in the end. The trend seems to
be toward ever higher prices and we can be sure the
building could be built for less this year than it
could a year or two from now.
Just because we don't have a jail in Barry County
does not mean we will have fewer people to put in
jail W ith the increase in population, we can ex­
pect an increase in crime. The more crime we have
the more we need a jail and the more it will cost
us to keep our prisoners in Charlotte.
A YES vote on the jail proposition Tuesday will
insure the people of the-county that they get the
moat for their money.

Mr. Todd has the interest ot our community at
heart and he has said this interest will continue. He
is a busy man, with a large district, yet he
can
find tirne to work to help a small community in
that district.
Todd's past record is good. He is no follower or
rubber sump. He has the scientific background and
the analytical mind we need in Washington.
A pair of very little~tricl&lt;^or^treatets stopped at

our door and got loot for their sacks and then went
on down the street. A little later the same pair
walked past the house on the way back home. The
smaller of the two suited up the steps but his
friend took him by the hand and explained, "It's
not fair to hit the same house twice. "

NOVEMBER 8th

Letter to the editor
the Oct. 20 th issue of the News concerning Charlie Boise' eyesight was erroneous, ex­
tremely misleading and inserted without verifica­
tion from one in a position to know the actual facts.
Mr. Boise merely got some foreign matter in his
eye, which was removed. An eye examination re­
vealed that Mr. Boise had a deuched retina, which
must be regarded as an "eye condition", and is not
to be misconstrued as an injury.
Dick Green took Mr. Boise to a specialist and sub­
sequently to Henry Ford Hospiul, Detroit; not be­
cause he was under obligation to do so, but simply
because he wished to be of assistance during a time
of misfortune.
Sincerely.
Dick Green

�Zoning in Nashville
To implement a zoning ordinance is not involved
and does not prove to be too expensive.
First a proposed ordinance is adopted by the Vil­
lage Council along with the proposed boundaries for
the various districts in the village.
Between the time the ordinance is adopted and the
effective date, the council will publish the ordi­
nance and the map, showing the division of d iscricts. The Council will also hold a public hearing
at which time any citizen of the village is free to
attend and discuss the ordinance and districts. Any

By ALLEN BRACE

adjustments would then be made prior to the date of
effect.
1*
At the time the ordinance takes effect, a zoning
administrator will have been appointed. His duties
are to see the ordinance is effectively implemented
and enforced.
A zoning Board of Appeals comprised of three in­
dividuals and the zoning commissioner is also a p pointed. And deviation from the ordinance would go
before the Appeals Board, and they are empowered
to make amendments to the ordinance.

NUMBER24

�Dear John,
In last week's "backstreet barometer", you men­
tioned a pair of very little trick-or-treaters that
had stopped at your door, got loot for their sacks
and then went on down the street; and, to many of
us, this was a reminder of two little trick-or-tfeat. er* (or tricksters) from Washington who took the lo­
cal editor for a canoe ride in exchange for some
well planned publicity. They, too, merely disap­
peared on down the street.
Off the record, John, every young couple knows
that a canoe ride can be very romantic; out, since
many of us were merely spectators on the bank,
thank goodness we could view the entire proceedings
with much greater clarity than the man in the canoe.
In discussing your "backstreet" article concerning
Paul Todd, it is certainly not my intent to cast
doubts on the candidate himself; for this type of
. mendacious politics has recently become the ac­
cepted thing. I would criticize the editor, however.

Dear Sin
Your sport* beadline this week should read "Ma­
ple Valley Football Team Sold Out to Middleville. ’
When one looks into tbe story and talk* with tbe
people involved, you come up with such mealy
mouth excuse* a* * Middleville will take cate of
everything", and "It's for the health of the boys, "
and so on, ad nauseam.
It's nice to know what the two big gun* on the
athletic committee really think of nv team and
* tbe twtytowns they represent; it seem* we're incap­
able of community help and cooperation. It's ewer
to slough it off and let George (Middleville) do it.
I always thought we were paying for judgment and
ability, instead of seniority and the easy way out.
Through tbe whole stinking mess, two men—men
who weren't given a fair part fa deciding the matter,
the two men most directly involved, came out with
chin* up after having die rug pulled out from under
them. At least they nave done their job—full sup­
port of tbe team no matter what, and most of all.
they've instilled in the boys, "fight hard, be tough,
but play clean and fair." The statistic* will support
them.
Somebody ought to be thinking of the board and
it's judgment*. One member did show up.
Of the two big "decision makers"? at least the
athletic director was there—where was the prlncl- ■
pal?

THE NASHVILLE NEWS

Now that wi’ve seen all the daring new things our stylists did,
get in and sample some of the safest, soundest ideas on the road!
What you feel is as new as what you
see—thanks to all the fresh thinking
that’s gone into the way it rides,
steers, stops and looks after your
safety.
It’s got a remarkable new road feel
—beginning with a ride so hushed
and gentle you’ll feel like calling this
the y67 Shhhevrolet. The steering
is as much as 10% easier. And you’ll
find the stopping smoother, too.

We put safety features on top of
safety features. For example, an
energy-absorbing steering wheel
atop the new GM-developed energy­
absorbing steering column. A dual
master cylinder brake system with
warning light. And seat belts front
and rear with pushbutton buckles.
All standard, to be sure.
And there’s a new SS 427 perform­
ance package—complete with 385-

hp Turbo-Jet V8 and flat-cornering
suspension. You can order it for
either the Impala Super Sport
Coupe or Convertible.
Of course, there are all sorts of new
custom features you can add, too,
such as tape or FM stereo. But if
you find so much that’s new a bit
too much to remember— drop down
to your dealer’s and take a drive.
It’ll all become unforgettable.

Ewiything new that could happen...happened! Now al juur Cltevndet dealer’s.

T

glistens down on the field where the team of horses blow clouds of vapor at their hooves as

they haul the bobsled loaded with manure.

The farm youth at the reins pulls back on them suddenly, and stops the team and sled to gaze at
/a line of small tracks in the fresh snow. He follows the tracks with his eyes in a zig-zag route

across the field and into the weeds and brush along the line fence. As he watches, a small, dog­

like animal with a great bushy tail trots from the far end of the field.
The youth spots the animal, and sudden excitement boils over in him in an involuntary shout that
startles the horses.
"A fox!"

In a frenzy that bathes him in sweat, the young man unloads the manure, and puts the horses

into a spirited trot on the way back to the bam. He hurtles through the rest of his morning chores in

a mariner that amazes his father. And then he stuffs a sandwich into his pocket, grabs an ancient
.22 rifle and hikes off to gather friends and cousins for an afternoon of fox hunting.
And though the youth may grow to become the most sophisticated of fox chasers with the finest
equipment available, no hunts will be so exciting as those afternoons of long ago. It was on these winWfarf,oaeHnk famfabteontodon-

tery Saturdays that the sport of fox hunting really began to course through the veins of midwest
hunters. It was a minor emotional beginning that has grown into a major winter sport

Fax hunting is done now with four-wheel drive vehicles, specially bred hounds, high velocity rifles
with telescopic sights, walkie-talkie radios, electrically heated socks, and even airplanes. A hunt may

involve dozens of men, and may spill across the length and breadth of a county.
But despite this refinement and enlargement of the hunt Mr. Fox continues to hold his own.
And in many instances, he has done so with a price on his red head. Fox bounties were once standard
annual budget items for state and local governments. They still exist in some areas, but are coming

more and more to be recognized as a useless tool in the manipulation of small game populations.

While the fox may dine with pleasure on the cottontail rabbit or the ringneck pheasant, the dietary

habits of Reynard is only one of many factors that determine the fall bunny and pheasant numbers. Of

much greater importance are habitat changes and weather during the winter or at critical periods
in the reproduction cycle.

,

Since the days of Aesop, however, the fox has been branded a villain. He is blamed for every
chicken theft, for missing turkeys, and is. even accused of snitching an occasional lamb.

Most of this is myth. The fox lives primarityon small rodents and spends the great majority of his
time hunting mice. He does this hunting at night, cruising back and forth across woodlots and fields

using his keen sense of smell to locate his quarry.

During the day, the fox curls up to sleep, usually on a knoll or hill that gives him a commanding

view of the countryside.

.

An annual litter of four-to-seven kits is produced in an underground den. They are bom in the late
winter, and by Easter time they are sticking their black button noses out to see the world. Both the
vixen and the adult male bring food back to the den for the young. When the family is half grown, the

youngsters start to accompany their mother on short hunting trips. Before they are very old they
also team that they are destined to go through life as the hunted as well as the hunter.
The “zmg" of a rifle bullet, the baying of a hound or the shout of a hunter may be the first sign

to the young animal that a fax's cunning is not an accessory, but a necessity of survival.
Fox hunting takes many forms. One group of Wisconsin hunters uses an airplane to spot fox.

The location is radioed to companions on the ground who surround the area, and then move in to flush
the animal out

�The “old pros-’ of fox chasing use hounds. The dogs are turned
loose in a likely fox area, and the hunters station themselves at van­
tage points where they think the fox will pass by. A fox may lead
hounds on incredibly long chases. The want-ad page of many a
rural newspaper commonly carries a winter message from a fox
„ hunter that begins, “Lost, fox hound, black and . . . . ”
The houndless hunter plays the role of dog himself, taking a
fresh track and keeping on it to drive the fox past hunting com­
panions.
A fox that cannot shake off pursuit—and most of them can by
one device or another—will sometimes end the hunt by diving into
a den.
The sport of fox hunting is in great measure responsible for the
popularity of high velocity varmit rifles. A shot at a fox must fre­
quently be made at extreme long range, and hunters like a weapon
that spits a small bullet at very high speed. The rifles are, of course,
' equipped with telescopic sights.
And many are the hunters who
stand on snowy hillsides now with
such a weapon and recall the days
when they hunted with a battered
old .22. They remember how the
fox crossed the Yellow river at the
“dead - waters” one afternoon and
how ice cold the water was when
the young hunters crossed too.
Then there was the afternoon
■s that the fox came up over a hill
just a few yards away, but ran off
unscathed because there was snow
in the rifle sights. Or was there a
buck-fever factor involved?
They’ll remember other days and
other hunts, and chances are the
memory-drugged hunted will get so
involved that he’ll let the fox of to­
day’s hunt slip safely away behind
him.
That's OK, though, because just
over the hill may be a farm youth
with a battered old .22 and just a
few hours between the morning
and evening chores.

MORE FARMERS PLANT,
THAN ANY DTI

he cultivator seems headed for the same fate as check-wires, hay load- »
era and oat binders. Now that chemicals have made their mark in
effectively killing weeds, the old “cut ’em off at the roots” weed controller
is already going into semi-retirement.. . and perhaps on its way to ob­

T

livion.
The chief reason given by many farmers for keeping the cultivator
around is for stirring the soil. “On its own, the cultivator is a lousy per­
ennial weed controller,” says one Illinois farmer who has converted to
chemicals. “All you can count on it to do is loosen the soil, rip or shear off
a plant, then pull it along the ground, spreading weed seed as it goes. And
covering weeds is about as effective as sweeping dirt under a carpet”
'
One Wisconsin farmer who wishes he had used weed spray years ago
is Earl Warnecke of Colgate. Warnecke, like many other farmers, has dis- (
covered that herbicides have to be experimented with to find out which
ones are adapted to a particular soil type and an individual weed problem.
It is generally agreed that pre-emergence treatment should be the foun­
dation of your weed control program. This protects the young plants when
they need it most. Poet-emergence applications of the right herbicide can
take care of any problems remaining.
Recent studies have shown that one pigweed releases as many as 200,­
000 seeds when it matures, and almost all of these weed seeds come ready
to grow. In view of tins, it doesn’t seem to make much sense to use the
best seeds, best fertiliser, best equipment, and best practices and then let
the weeds steal your crop’s potential
You won’t put up with a self-feeder that lets pigs spill grain and pro- »
teinall over the feeding floor ... nor will you put up with a loose end­
gate in tbe back of your wagon that lets corn and beans spill on the ground
as you haul them back from the field. So, why put up with weeds?
Here are three ways weeds rob your profits, just as surely as if you
have a hole in the bottom of your change pocket:
1. Weeds growing in the row absorb light, consume nitrogen, phosphor­
ous, potash, moisture and trace minerals necessary for crop growth.
In soybeans, studies have shown that one foxtail plant growing every
four inches in the row will consume enough of these elements to produce
an extra 2.3 bushels per acre. In corn, a pigweed every 10 inches in a
row can cut the corn yield by 17 bushels per acre. These losses can cost ’ * s
you up to $35 per acre.
2. Weeds, whether in the row or just along a ditch or fenceline, can
cause infestation of a crop by allowing mites, insects, or disease organ­
isms to hide in them.
,
3. Weeds cause trash that can plug up a picker or combine, allowing
beans or corn kernels to be left in the field.
.
Not only can weeds rob you by the methods listed above, but they can
rob you of the time it takes to deal with them- Using a cultivator to deal
with weeds takes much more time than chrnnirak, and isJess effective than
most herbicides.
.
This fact was one of the reasons that another Wisconsin farmer, Dan *.
Tetelaff of Sussex, went to chemical weed controls. “Cultivating takes so
much more time, and its effectiveness isn’t worth the time it demands,”
he says.

BRAND

�“After cultivating for years, I was never con­
vinced I was getting good weed control, even with
several cultivations. But one application of herbi­

cide last year was so effective that it just wiped

out my thistle problem ... and my doubts.”
One application is not always the answer on
’ all farms, since conditions vary and some weeds
have more tolerance than others. But you can be
pretty well assured that one application with a
herbicide will do a lot more damage to weeds than
one or even two trips with a cultivator.
Or you might do what Harold Gardner of Cam­
eron, Illinois does. He makes one herbicide appli­
cation and goes over the field once with a culti­
vator.
“I still like to loosen the soil once with my cul­
tivator,” Gardner says. “As for the weeds, the
' cultivation’s hardly necessary. Those weeds are
usually dead before I get there.”
It might be a good time for you to. try this new
road to profits if you haven’t done-so already.
Check around to find the best chemicals for your
particular weed problems. Read the label. Follow
the directions carefully. And, grow the best weedfree crop your land ever produced.

LOOK AT WHAT
THESE FARMERS SAY

Even without the sign, the location
of this check-plot would be pretty obvious.
The weed-free area around the untreated
patch illustrates the effective use of chemi­
cals.

The West Bend (Wis.) News headlined the follow­
ing story “Opportunity.”
“The judge asked the defendant why he struck his
wife,.knocking her out of the house?” Replied the
prisoner, “Her back was turned, the broom was handy,
and the back door was open.”

Next time there is a lull in the conversation, tell
your friends that you read in The Dickinson (N.D.)
Press that the moon weighs 81 billion tons.

“If you don’t think women are explosive, try drop­
ping one,” says The Wabasha County Herald of Wa­
basha, Minn.
The Ada (Ohio) Herald tells about the boss who told
an employee “Your salary increase will become effec­
tive as soon as you do.”

“In our youth,” says The Sisseton (SJ).) Courier,
“the perfect gift for an 18-year-old girl was a com­
pact. It still is—if it has four wheels.”

“Dollars to doughnuts are no longer the big odds
they used to be,” laments The Ripon (Wis.) Common­
wealth-Press.
The Wright County Journal-Press of Buffalo, Minn.,
says, “The world really isn’t any worse. It’s just that
the news coverage is so much better.”

“Even though your wife may be a pain in the neck,
your medical insurance will not pay for a divorce,” ad­
vises The Morris (Minn.) Tribune.

The Northwestern Illinois Farmer of Lena, Ill., says
a woman never knows when she gives her husband
enough rope, whether he will hang himself or skip.
There is usually still a lot of smoke around a woman
even though she may have lost most of her fire, claims
the Denison (Iowa) Bulletin.

“Just one passing interception on the highway may
put you out of the ball game for good,” warns the'
Paulding (Ohio) Progress.
The Pocahontas (Iowa) Record-Democrat tells about
the bride who said to her husband as he ate his noon
meal, “There are two things I cook real well. One is
angel food cake and the other is fried chicken.”
The young husband surveyed the meal, and asked,
“Which is this?”
“Flattery is the art of telling someone just what he
thinks of himself,” says The Lima (Ohio) News.

“Tell the average man there are 270,000,000 stars in
the universe and he will believe you,” claims the Taze­
well County News of Morton, Ill., “but put up a sign
saying ‘Fresh Paint’ and he will have to conduct an in­
vestigation.”

The trouble with school drops-outs, says The Review
of Portageville, Mo., is not that they can’t see the hand­
writing on the wall, but they can’t read it.
A lesson that should be learned well, according to
The Reinbeck Courier in Reinbeck, Iowa, is that there
is no reward for finding fault.
Then there is the driver who was going the wrong
way on a one way street. The Nashville (Mich.) News
says a policeman asked the driver if he had not seen
the arrows.
“I didn’t even see the Indians,” the driver replied.

“The early worm goes forth with zeal.
To give the hungry bird a meal.
His brother has no such intention,
And lives to draw his old-age pension.”

A good listener is not only popular everywhere, but
afterwhile he knows something, advises The Clear

“The best way for a married man to hide something
from his wife,” says the Adair County Free Press of
Greenfield, Iowa, “is to put it in the basket with the un­

�HOLIDAY RECIPES

CRANBERRIES

ince the days when Indians used it to heal arrow wounds, the tangy
cranberry, native only to the United States, has been the star of
a history as colorful as its own red color.
Up to the early 1800's cranberries were considered such a preci­
ous commodity that in 1789, New Jersey fined people caught picking
them out of season.
The sparkling berry was first picked by hand by the Indians of
what are now the states of Massachusetts, New Jersey, Wisconsin, Ore­
gon, and Washington—still the major cranberry growing areas.
Today mechanical pickers lift the.berries from the vines, but the

S

hand scoop method is still in use in hard-to-reach areas.
To make sure there will be a crop to harvest, growers constantly
must be on the alert for signs of approaching cold weather. A tempera­
ture dip below 27 degrees means the bogs must be flooded to protect
against frost, a most destructive enemy. The protective water blanket,
warmer than the air, incubates vines from the cold. If properly planted
and cared for, cranberry vines will flourish indefinitely; some have been
reported to bear fruit for over 100 years.
So with the thought that cranberries are here to stay, try some of
these recipes as a delightful addition to any meal.

perature) to measure K cup
1 cup coarsely chopped California
1 package (13 oz.) frosting sugar or

MINIATURE FRUIT FONDANT

&gt;

1 package (13 o;.) frosting sugar
orWs cups sifted confectioners
sugar
H teaspoon almond extract
Heat milk with com syrup in double boiler over hot (not boiling) water.
Add frosting sugar, about 1 cup at a time, stirring well after each addition.
When mixture becomes too stiff to mix with a spoon, remove from heat
and turn out onto a smooth surface; add flavoring and gradually knead in
as much of the remaining frosting sugar necessary to make the consistency
of very stiff pie dbugh. Work until smooth. Pinch off small pieces and use
to stuff dried fruits or to mold into interesting fruit shapes. Makes 2 to 216
dozen pieces.

2 tablespoons evaporated milk
1 tablespoon corn syrup

CANDY FUDGE TREE IN A PAN
To shape the tree in a 9-inch square pan, cut 3 strips of heavy card­
board 9-inches long and 2 inches wide. Cover strips with foil, then stand
them on edge in the well-greased pan in the form of a triangular tree, as
shown.

Directions for Shaping Fruit Fondants
Starting with a small ball of the dough-like fondant, pinch or press
into shape. Brush strawberries with slightly diluted light com syrup, then
roll them in red sugar crystals. For peaches, press a toothpick lightly into
one side making a characteristic indentation.
After shaping, use a clove for blossom end where needed. Cut leaves
from flattened, green gumdrops and attach with a short length of toothpick.
Before “painting” peaches and other fruits, let them dry about two
hours. Then using an artist’s fine brush and ordinary food colors, paint
each piece. Gustard cups make good paint pots for this kitchen art work.
Let your own originality be your guide.

ROCKY ROADS

Make a batch of Magic Coconut Fudge first, for the background. Divide
the soft candy and press it into spaces between cardboard strips and sides
of pan. (You’ll need a little less than one-fourth of the candy to fill the
space below the tree. The rest, divided evenly, fills upper comers.) Pack
it firmly and evenly. Chill in refrigerator.
When it is set, gently loosen and lift out the foil-covered dividers. Cut
out an inch square of white candy from center of bottom to make space
for “trunk” of tree.
,
■
Next, make the Magic Chocolate Fudge. At once pour it into the empty
spaces, spreading it quickly and neatly into all the corners. Chill until firm.
Cover with clear plastic wrap, then wrap and tie as you please.

Did you know that National Accordian Week be­
gins on Friday and continues through the 25th.
This is a new one on me. 1 didn't even knew that
there was a National Accordian Week. I think I'll
step right out and buy an accordian so I can be kind
to it.
Maybe the kind thing to do would be not to buy
an accordian. This might be the kindest thing both
for the accordian (not to put the squeeze on it) and
for the neighbors.
This all reminds me of the story of the little boy
who first mw an accordian being played. The per­
former knew little about the instrument and even
less about music in general and the resulting sounds
were somewhat less than pleasant.
The little boy was surprised to find that the sounds
were coming from the instrument. He explained
that he thought the lady was screaming because
that thing was pinching her stomach.
Then on November 24th National Indigestion
Week begins. I'm not putting you on. This book I
have here really lists this as the start of Indigestion
Week. For some reason this week runs through Janu­
ary first. I guess they think that once you get indi­
gestion you might just as well hold on to it for a
while.
I have no idea why indigestion week should start
on Thanksgiving ana continue on through Christmas
and New Year's Day, three bating holidays, but I
suspect it was planned that way.
I find that National Indigestion Week was started
by the people who manufacture Soda Bicarbonate.
That figures.

Now that I think of it, we don't have much time
to get in shape for the big days ahead.
We had to be in Toledo Saturday, and that town
is all set for Christmas already. They were putting
and
up a big Christmas tree in front of the City Hall an
all the stores had Christmas decorations already.

Putting men up in space has become so routine
that a lady I talked to the other day didn't realize
that there were men in the latest snot. She thought
they just send a rocket up.
Next we will have men on the moon. It looks like
that will be soon.

In a double ring ceremony read at 1 pm Saturday,
November 5, in the Nashville Methodist church. Miss.
Ann Elizabeth Skedgell, daughter of Mr. and Mb.
Donald Skedgell, 609 Sherman St, became the
bride of Richard J. Ewing, son of Mr. and Mb. Richard
N. Ewing, Brick Hwv., Vermontville.
The Rev. Glenn Bingham officiated in the presence
of approximately 200 guests. The organist was Mrs.
Wm. R. Dean who accompanied the soloist, Robert

Mason. The altar war decorated in ivory candles, and
| bouquets of coral tinted and white pom pom mums.
Escorted to the altar by her father, the bride wore
I her mother's wedding gown of ivory taffeta moire,
I with chapel length train. The square neckline was
I trimmed in lace and seed pearls. Her elbow-length
I veil of candlelight illusion was attached to a beadI piece of lace and pearls and she carried a cascade of
I white sweetheart roses and stephanotis.
Miss Katherine Skedgell, sister of the bride, per­
formed the duties of the maid of honor, and the
I bridesmqids were Miss Bonnie Ewing, sister of the
I groom, and Miss Sue Skedgell, cousin of the bride.
They chose floor length gowns with bodice of coral
and ivory brocade and skirts of coral chiffon over tafl feta. The headpiece of chiffon matched theirgowns
i and they carried nosegays of coral tinted carnations
and white roses.
Miss Lori Lackscheide and Master Craig Lacks I scheide were the flower girl and ring bearer. They
are the daughter and son of Mr. and Mrs. Wayne Lackscheide of Illinois.
I Roger Piddington of Vermontville, friend of the
groom, served as the best man, and groomsmen were
Wayne Lackscheide, brother-in-law of the groom,
I ana Marshall Kemppainen of Lansing, friend of the
groom. The ushers were Frederick Corkins of Nash­
ville, uncle of the bride, and Ben L. Mason of N a s b ville, friend of the family.
A reception was held in the Community House ad­
joining the church immediately after the ceremony.
I Mr. and Mrs. Otto Christensen of Charlotte were the
.
host and hostess.
'■
For the wedding the bride's mother chose aqua iace
with accessories to match. Her corsage was of white
sweetheart roses. The groom's mother wore beige lace
with brown accessories and her corsage was of yellow
sweetheart roses.
| The couple went immediately to their new home,
2646 Union Lake Rd., Union Lake, Mich. The bride
changed to a pink wool suit and brown accessories tor
her traveling-ensemble. Her corsage was from her
bridal bouquet.
Out-of-town guests were from Indiana, Ulionois,
Lansing, Grand Rapids, Clarksville, Dowling, Detroit,
Fenton. Battle Creek, Charlotte, Vermontville and

Dear Friend:
It is with some regret I learned the decision of
the votes to replace me. I am very grateful to the
citizens of Eaton County and parts of Calhoun Coun­
ty for having given me the wonderful experience I
have gained in the last two years of representing
them. .
Thanks to new legislation passed during my term,
senior citizens should find their lot in life greatly
improved. School aid was increased the past two
years by $144 million over what was allotted the
previous two years. I took an active part in the many
needed changes which affect our citizens.
I wish to thank the people who supported me, as
well as the various newspapers who I feel have treat­
ed me very fairly.
I shall continue to take an active pan and interest
in what I think will improve and continue good gov­
ernment.
With some thought to the 1968 elections, I am
quite happy that during my campaign I never took
upon myself to instruct the voters whc they should
vote for.
Many thanks to all.
Sincerely,
,
Claude E. Burton

To speed up separation and delivery of these
smaller parcels falling within this category. Postmas­
ter General Lawrence F. O'Brien directed that all
parcels be clearly marked upon acceptance at the

tration Center prior to dispatch to Viet Nam or other
overseas military post offices.

Christmas parcels weighing 5 pounds and under,
though they are given airlift priority from San Fran­

�Gift Shop at Pennock Hospital
Mn. Jack Kennedy, President of the Pennock Hos­
pital Women's Guilds announced the opening of a
new Gift Shop at the Hospital. "The Pen-Nook", on
Wednesday. November 9. The Gift Shop will be ofrom 11:00 am to 4:00 pm and from 6:30 pm to
pm Monday through Saturday. It may be open­
ed for a period on Sunday if there are volunteers
willing to cover Sundays.
■This newest venture of the Hospital Guilds is the
culmination of many months of planning and hard
work by the Committee assigned to this project. "
Mb. Kennedy said. "It also represents a project
through which much can be contributed to the guild
organization and the Hospital. Gift shops run by vol­
unteers have become a way of life in community
hospitals. The Gift Shop Committee visited many
gift shops in hospitals in this pan of the country.
They have selected items that are carried by al­
most every one of the shops visited. They Included
many items for the amusement and comfort of the
patient as well as some strictly gift items. These
latter items are the types of things that people buy

on impulse when they see them. Customer of hos­
pital gift shops usually do not come to the hospital
for the purpose of buying gifts. They are there for
other obvious reasons.
"Proceeds from the Gift Shop arc contributed to
the hospital to finance new services and to provide
new equipment for the hospital. One of the first pro­
jects to be undenaken will be to help establish an
Intensive Care Unit at the Hospital. Although it will
take a good deal of time to begin showing a profit
.in the operation of the Gift Shop, it is hoped to
make some sort of contribution to this very worth­
while project some time next year, " Mrs. Kennedy,
concluded.
In addition to the Gift Shop, a "comfort cart"
will be taken around the patient floors with conven­
ience items for patients. This cart operation is be­
ing coordinated by Mrs. Gerald Beckwith and Mrs.
Vernon Engle. Mrs. Stuart Clement and Mrs. Ross
Dunn, co-chairmen of the Gift Shop Guild, ask that
volunteers interested in working in the Gift Shop or
with the Comfort cart contact Mrs. Vernon Engle at
945-9166.

Home Health Services surveyed

Kalamo

The Barry County Health Department was recent­
ly surveyed by the Michigan Department of Public
Health to determine eligibility for providing Home
Health Services under the new Medicare Program.
The Department was given tentative approval by
the State, but the actual Program must now wait
final approval from the Health, Education and Wel­
fare office in Chicago.
The Program as planned, will provide Home Nur­
sing Services and Home visits and treatment by a
Physical Therapist where indicated and where or­
dered by the attending physician. These will be on
a contractual basis with the insuring parties, wheth­
er they be Medicare, Blue Cross, the Bureau of So­
cial Services, or private pay patients. The fee for
a Home Nursing visit will be $7.00 and for a home
visit by the Physical Therapist, $10.00. No one will
be refused the service because of lack of funds, how­
ever.
This program will allow patients to be discharged
earlier from acute care in hospitals, thus freeing
more beds for the acutely ill It is being undertaken
with the entire cooperation of the Medical profes­
sion, the hospitals and the Bureau of Social Services.
The Health Department has been given a Federal
Grant to help support the fist year of the Program,
or until the Program becomes self supporting, or
nearly so. It is anticipated that extra personnel
probably will be required as the program grows.

Corn Harvest aafety urged /

(Overall diagonal tube measure;
226 sq, in. picture viewing area)

The proper operation of a mechanical corn picker
or combine increases the farmer's yield per acre.
And proper operation is safe operation, says Dave
Shilton, president of the Maple Valley Chapter of
the Future Farmers of America.
The organization is participating in a nationwide
program to reduce accidents due to carelessness dur­
ing the corn harvest. The Safe Corn Harvest Program
is sponsored by the Farm and Industrial Equipment
Institute and the National Safety
■tv Council.
"A safe corn picker operatort has only about one
chance in a million of being hu
lurt on a picker or
combine in the next five years,
,
, while the average
25,' according tto the Univer­
operator stands one in 25,
sity of Illinois College of Agriculture. ”
srty
* A careless operator has a 50-50 ch
*A
chance of being
seriously injured in the next five years. "
As part of the program, members of the chapter
ay to visit many farm families in the community.
They will review the safety precautions required for
the safe operation of com pickers and other harvest
equipment. Safety reminders will be left with each
family.
,
.
There will be a CROP drive sponsored soon by the
FFA. The proceeds from this will go to CROP FOR
OVERSEAS RELIEF.
The FFA is also selling the Slow Moving Vehicle
signs that are required by law, starting April 1,1967.

-e

.let us be ever thankful
In looking bock to Thanksgiving celebrations of years
gone by, it is only fitting that we should remember to be grateful
for the countless blessings that have been bestowed upon this

nation since its early Pilgrim Days. At this time, we

join with the

rest of our countrymen in humble thanksgiving for our American

way of. life, and we sincerely extend to you and yours, our very
best wishes .

Dear John,
We have been meaning to write and tell you
how much we enjoy getting the Maple Valley News
down here. You don't realize how much you enjoy
reading about the people, and your old home town
until you move so far away.
We have made a new life for ourselves and we
like it here and are very happy, but we always 110°k

going on up there; we are still interested in bow
Nashville and surrounding areas are progressing.
You don’t really notice progress here where we
are because it is a large Beach area consisting ofJack­
sonville, Neptune, Atlantic ano Ponte Vedra beach­
es and they are always doing something to make it
more attractive.
We got a bang out of your political disagreement
up there because Florida has just gone through one
of die bitterest campaigns in history, and they e­
lected a Republican Governor for the first time in
94 yean. It was real interesting listening to the
speeches and throat cutting, but I guess we should

weeks before the big day. For the past few years
the Christmas season has started right after Thanks­
giving. Now they are starting it even before
Thanksgiving. The stores in Toledo were all deco­
rated for Christmas two weeks before Thanksgiving.
I was talking to a lady who had been to Missouri
or Oklahoma, or someplace like that, and she said
they had the Christmas decorations up at least a
month ago.
That B pushing it a bit.
One of the nicer thing! left us by our puritanpil­
grim ancestors is the Thanksgiving
tsgiving Holiday, when
.
. we stop to take accounts j of those
'
things
‘
for
'
which we should be than) :uL In celebration of this
Thanksgiving
,
j we Americans sit down to a full table and 'proceed
proce to overeat. This is by way of
showing that we are thankful that we are the most
overfed nation on earth. I must admit I do my
| share of showing thankfulness in this way.
While we are eating though, it would be nice if
we remembered some of the other things we have
to be thankful for, not the least of which is our
American freedom... Political freedom, that is.
Also, while we are thinking of how thankful we
are for this freedom, we might think also a bit a­
bout how this freedom can be retained. The best
way to keep our freedom, not only political but
an of our personal freedoms, is to see to it that
we don’t restrict the freedoms of others.

In many homes across the nation today, there’s a
vacant seat at the dinner table. It seems like yesterday, when the high chair was put up in the attic, and
he sat down at the table for the first time, propped
up with a few pillows.
.
As he began to grow tall, he talked about many
things. He would be one day a policenum or space
scientist, professional ballplayer or a college pro­
fessor. The world was his oyster.
His adolescent years passed quickly—high school
days had come and gone—and suddenly overnight
he became a man—for Uncle Sam beckoned and
approved.
His turkey dinner with all the fixings will not be
the same as ours. The Viet Cong may not wait. We’il
miss his infectious grin—his kidding around with
the rest-of the family—no, he is on serious business ■ -•
now.
To those families with the empty chair—words
are inadequate to express the feelings of a family
separated by war.
What all of us can do, when we sit down to that
traditional Thanksgiving Day feast, is to pause —
give thanks to the Supreme Being and pray that a
safe return may be granted to those absent and that
peace will come to the world.
And as George Washington proposed in his

constitutional government, let ns hope that the gov­
ernments of the world may become servants and not
masters of the people.

Winter is upon us for sure now ano were can be
no doubt about it. Those who are smart and can do
it have taken off for Florida where they will read
in the papers about the big blizzard up north. Those
Florida papers just love to get weather reports in
this time of year. They take delight in letting the
southerners know bow cold it is in Chicago.
That is life I guess, when we read about some­
one else's bad tunes we feel better about our own.

We get many publications here at the News of­
fice. Many publishers of trade publications put
newspapers on their list just as a matter of course.
Many of these are of real interest.
The Great Lakes shipping industry sends us a lit­
tle magazine with information about the ships on
the lakes and I really like to read it. There is a
TRAINS magazine which has some really unusual
pictures of trains and railroad activities in it.
Humble Oil Company produces a beautiful mag­
azine which devotes itself largely to information
about conservation and history with some informa­
tive articles about the petroleum industry. I always
look forward to the arrival of this one.
For the past few months we have been getting a
new one from Jean Drapeau, Maire de Montreal, et
avec ses salutations. Tnis is a particularity interes­
ting one because it is bi-lingual. The articles in it
are written in both French and English. The maga­
zine deals with Montreal, past and present. Of
course the fact that that great city u going to have
a big exposition there next year has nothing to do
with the fact that we are getting the magazine.
Really, Expo 67 will be one of the roost unusual
events of this kind in the century. Makes we want
to attend.
At any rate I thank M. Drapeau. And maybe I'll
make it there.

Methodist Church
dates back to 1845
The 100 hymnals dedicated Sunday, November
20, in a special ceremony in the Vermontville
Methodist church, were presented in die loving-----memory of Charles R. and Florence M. Dean. The
Rev. Ralph M. -Dean;' their son, who now resides at
Kai»inazoo, was in charge of the dedicatory cere­
mony. The Deans were active members in the
church from the time they joined in October, 1899,
until their death.
The history of the Vermontville Methodist church
dates back to 1845 when classes were held in
school bouses ju homes and were visited periodi­
cally by circuit preachers of the Eaton Circuit.
In September 1859 the Michigan Conference,
held in Marshall, voted Vermontville a separate
charge with the Rev. Josiah Fowler as pastor. The
first Quarterly Conference in Vermontville was held
Novembers, 1859, when stewards and trustees were
elected. The pastor’s salary at $420.00 was appor­
tioned among the eight or more preaching places.
One of these was Bismark, at that time called West
Sunfield. Throughout its history the Bismark church
was a part of the Vermontville charge. In 1954
Gresham chyrchJgai added.
The first church building was erected in 1862
northeast of the village about two miles. It was
this building which Rev. Dean's great-grandmother
furnished a portion of the lumber. In 1866*67 a par­
sonage was built. The first regular preaching in the
village of Vermontville was after 1872, for in that
year the Quarterly Conference appointed a commit­
tee to arrange for establishing such a regular preach­
ing appointment. In 1877 the church building was
moved into the village. The south wing was added
in 1889 and enlarged and considerable improve­
ments have been made from time to time, and the
present church adds an air of distinction and beauty
to this quiet little community of 750 residents.
Pastors who followed Rev. Fowler include Rev.
Moses Carpenter. Rev. Uri Mason, Rev. G. D. Pal­
mer, Rev. E. Wilkinson, Rev. Thomas Clark, Rev.
Hugh Cladwell, Rev. J. Gulick, Rev. H. D. Jordon,

DETROIT — Strong support
for the oft-heard advice that
women should have annual
cancer tests of the cervix, or
womb entrance, has been
voiced by Dr. Esther Dede,
Wayne State University path­
ologist who for years has been
examining the results of such
tests in Detroit hospitals.
"Nine women in every thou­
sand in the United States will
probably develop cancer of the
cervix at some stage of life,”
she says. "Detection at an
early stage is highly Important
if these nine women are to be
restored to health.”
Women neglect the tests, she
says, because they don't real­
ize how simple, yet how vital,
they are.
“Actually the test, known as
the ‘Pap smear test,’ is pain­
less and involves no removal
of tissue,” she points out.
“The test is made by merely
rubbing the surface of the
cervix with a wooden paddle­
like instrument to scrape off
loose cells. Examination under
the microscope shows whether
or not any of these cells are
cancerous.”

TVo

Jackpot winner

It was in the late 1930's that
a Greek anatomist, Dr. George
Papanicolaou, developed the
idea that a test for cancer
could be made In this way,
instead of by removing tis­
sue. He published his results
in 1943.
“When an early-stage can­
cerous condition is found
through the test, surgical
treatment can in almost all
cases restore complete
health," says Dr. Dale. “In
many cases, through a tissue­
removing operation which
merely enlarges the womb's
opening without harming the
womb Itself, the patient may
still bear children.
“The lining of the womb it­
self is less likely to be found
cancerous,” says Dr. Dale,
"except in women who are
past the 'change of life,* or
menopause.” For these wom­
en, a slightly different method
of obtaining cells for the "Pap
smear” Is used. This test, like
the one for the cervix, is pain­
less and involves no tissue
removal.

Assessment workshop
The Eaton County Equalization Committee has
scheduled a workshop on December 15, for the as­
sessors of the cities, townships and villages in Ea­
ton County. This is the third of a series of confer­
ences to promote uniform assessment procedures
throughout the county. Previous sessions were held
September 22 and November 10.
The workshop seaion is concerned with the val­
uation of personal property with the State Tax
Commission multipliers for appreciation and de­
preciation of various service life properties. Per­
sonal property forms and audit techniques for in­
formation from records and reports will be covered
in the training period.

A plan for a simple feature at the entrance to a town is given for your inspiration.

Have you ever taken a good look at the en­
trances to your town or city? Do they look like
entrances to a place you’d like to live and
work or are they just a continuation of road
and buijdings? Or is there, perhaps, a sign that
indicates a change of ptece-but nothing else?
In other words, does your town smile or frown?
Wouldn’t your home and your business bene­
fit from an entrance that looks as if someone
cared about the municipality and was proud
to live or work there? The simple plan above
emanates a sense of well-being and of pride
in the surroundings.
It is not only simple, it is inexpensive to
construct. A concrete block rectangle provides

:
A stale-y ide Neighborhood Youth Corp* project
designed _taputl, 700. high school dropout* to wotkp
drew only 300 volunteer*. A YOuth'Employment Proj­
ect in the Detroit metropolitan area got only 30 of ,,
70 young men sought for summer work.'.’Y^Xf'^' 1

Despite these disappointing results, officials head­
ing projects remained optimistic.
Those who did volunteer for the work were good
workets'and many could quickly be trained for place­
ment in more permanent types of jobs at higher pay.
Some volunteers on the conservation-type Youth
Corps project were willing to continue indefinitely
at the $1.25 or $1. 50 rate. This was mote than the
fathets ever made in their lives.
Anti-poverty workers had anticipated they would
encounter many youths whose dreams were unrealis­
tic, Other youths from underprivilaged homes a 1 ready had developed a cynicism and apathy which
drained any desire for useful work.
While many challenged whether the vast expen­
diture for anti-poverty work programs were justified
by the number served, officials contended that, as
in many other government-sponsored projects, every
little bit helps.

Good news for motorists whose driving habits have
given them cause to worry over insurability came
Nov. 1 when new Michigan law took effect.
Michigan became the second state to enact legis­
lation specifying the conditions under which an in­
surance company can cancel auto coverage during
the term of the policy.
Rep. Albert Kramer, Oak Park Democrat, empha­
sized the law was designed to protect both the driv­
er and the insurance company.

Higher rates on auto insurance have hit every driv­
er in Michigan the past several years, but Kramer’s
law will have no effect on this trend.
..
Instead it will reauire that if a company insures
a driver for 5$ days, it must give cause for a later
decision to cancel the policy.
’
A driver whose coverage u cancelled beyond tin
56-day trial period can appeal the company’s de­
cision to the Sute Insurance Department and get a
quick decision on whether the" cancellation is justi■

Thanksgiving is over and the Christmas season is here. We are
working like mad to get Christmas decorations up in the store. Even
the weather is beginning to look like Christmas; in fact, a little too
much so.
I had a real good hunting trip up in the U. P. and even managed
to come home with a buck. Three of us in our party of five were
lucky including Dick.
New merchandise is arriving every day including cards, books,

�Organization honors servicemen
Due to lack of recognition of Barry County men
leaving fat the Armed Force*, several county groups
recently formed a new organization known as Arm­
ed Forces Send-Off Association of Barry County; in
short. A, F. S. O. A. Bi, C.
Officers serving are James Blodgett, Hastings
V. F. W. , president; co-chairmen, Louis Brown, Has­
tings V. F. W., Jack Teller, Hickory Comers Le­
gion, Jack Patten, Hastings Kiwanis Club, Winston
Merrick, Hastings Legion, secretary and Steve Paa­
vo, Hastings City Bank, treasurer. V. F. W. Post*
and Auxiliaries, together with Legion Auxiliaries
from Nashville, Middleville, Freeport, Hastings
and Hickory Comers are active on the committee.
The plans are to honor these men leaving with a
dinner for them and their parents and wives and a
gift. When a large group leaves, the dinner, put on

by some county group, is held at the Hastings Le­
gion Post, where a Charter bus picks them up. When
they leave by scheduled bus, plans are to honor
them with a dinner at a Hastings restaurant.
Merchants, industries, organizations and private
citizens are helping to finance the program. The
usual amount is one dollar a month or twelve dol­
lar* a year, larger amounts are being contributed.
The committee agreed, if it should disband, to
donate any balance to the Patient's Welfare Fund at
Fort Custer VA Hospital.

clude: VFW Auxiliary, Vogt Funeral Home, Keihl

the ability to learn a language, not education and
achievement. (If test scores indicate a limited
language-learning ability, for example, the Peace

speaking country.) The placement test requires no

Club to send Christmas gift
At the November meeting oTthe Nashville Wom­
an's Literary Club it was decided that the club
would sponsor the sending of Christmas gifts to pa­
tients at the Fort Custer home. This suggestion was
made at the October meeting. The material need­
ed by patients at the home is varied, from stuffed
toys to combs, soap, aprons, coloring books, etc.
The suggestion was made to have members bring
items to the News office where they could be gath­
ered together. They should not be wrapped as the
hospital attendants prefer to do this themselves. The
gift items should be taken to the News office be­
fore December 14.
The Club will also sell Christmas candy in an ef­
fort to earn money toward their projects. Mb. Tom
Myers, Mrs. Lawrence Tonkin and Mn. Gale Keihl
are memben of the project committee.
Mb. Elbert Carpenter presented a review of the
book "The Aim Was Song* by Jean Gould, a book
about the life of Robert Frost. It was much enjoyed
by the memben present.
The meeting was held at the home of Mrs. Nor­
man Sandbrook and twenty-four attended.
Mrs. Michael Dooley and Mn. Floyd Titmarsh
assisted Mrs. Sandbrook on the tea committee.

We went to Detroit over last weekend and while
we were there I went to the Auto Show. They had a
line-up of beautiful can there, but it was nothing
compared to the line-up of girls they had with each
display of autos.
The American public likes to see new cars, but
more than that, they like to see good looking girls.
When you combine good-looking girls with good­
looking can the American public goes nuts. At least
this part of the American public does.
In the past the manufacturer of automobiles had a
bunch of men standing around their displays to ex plain the fine points of the can to interested lookers.
This year they had a girl with each car and she
would explain things. I stopped and listened to them
all.
While I was looking around I saw this couple wan­
dering through the displays. When they go to the one
with this little English car. the girl started chatter­
ing about the manufacture of the vehicle and then
she gave it a very thorough inspection. All during
the inspection she gave reports to the man with her.

the start of a political editorial, it is just a state­
ment of fact.
Police Chief, Bob Parker has a bowl of nuts, wal­
nuts. pecans, etc., a nutcracker and picks. Visitors
to the Village Hall can have a snack while they are
paying their water bills.

Sam Smith tells me that Bill Martin, who is now
in Pennock Hospital, can have visitors.
Bill was injured in an auto accident on his way to
Florida. It seems a shame that a person works all

his life to retire and have a little fun in Florida, and
then should have something like this happen before
he gets beyond Indiana.

Gale Keihl is celebrating his twenty-five years of
owning the hardware store with a big anniversary
sale.
Nashville can be proud of Gale. He has been ac­
tive in the Chamber of Commerce, Lions Club and
numerous other civic organizations during his twen­
ty-five years here.
We at the News Office wish Gale KeitU well with
his anniversary. Already we are getting ready for
his 50th anniversary ad.

Somebody is in for a treat. The Chamber of Com­
merce in Nashville is giving a color TV -away. All
one has to do is to buy a ticket for a dollar arid he
might very well be the winner of a set worth several
hundred dollars.
The chances for winning look good because not
many tickets have been sold. The odds are in your
favor. Buy your ticket now. You might be able to
give your family a color TV for Christmas.

Demands upon education at all levels are in­
creasing at an alarmingly high rate and give no in­
dication of slowing down in this world of rapid
Ch"T^e school building is becoming the focal point
of the community," says Superintendent of Public
Instruction Ira Polley notes, with the realization
that a fixed amount of knowledge and one set of
skills is no longer always sufficient for a lifetime.

Combined with this trend toward continuing ed­
ucation, Michigan and other states now find them­
selves challenged to take over some of the moral
and social guidance of young people, tasks once re­
served for the family or community.
Then there is the demand to serve the gifted and
the mentally handicapped; the wealthy and the pov­
erty-stricken; the physically normal and the physi­
cally handicapped.
Polley contends the teachers in Michigan schools
are ready to meet these various demands but that
community members must reciprocate with finan­
cial support for the kinds of programs these demands
dictate.
"Education in the breadth and depth necessary to
give Michigan residents full opportunity for self-de­
velopment and fulfillment will require a greater in­
vestment than we have previously been willing to
make in dollars and effort, but such an investment
is within our means.

toll of ignorance, " contends the education chief.
" Ignorance is a negative influence that can only
entity our minds and our pocketbooks. "
-

Use of computers as teaching machines is seen as
one part of the answer of meeting these increasing
demands on education.
In some parts of the country, "talking computers"
are being used already in experiments to teach read
ing at the earliest levels of education.
In Michigan, research in this field is being con­
centrated at the university level but researchers be­
lieve it can be adapted for use at all levels.
t .

QUICK-SLOW LEARNERS
A major research project under way in coopera­
tion among the-state's Big Three universities is
geared to the two extremes of learning: the students
ready for advanced work and those requiring remedialhelp.

Teachers usually are prepared to deal with the av­
erage needs of the student body, but time demands
have frequently limited the attention available to
extremely fast or extremely slow learners.,
Researchers emphasize computers can never re place teacher-student contacts, but. rather, can
siipp. ement these with individual attention, al­
though on an impersonal basis.

.
Dr. Frank Matzocco, director of Michigan State
University's Human Learning Research Institute, ar­
gues that computers will not, however, dehumanize
education.
"Behind every computer there is a real professor,"
he notes.

STATE POLICEWOMEN
Equal employment laws enacted recently had
nothing to do with it, but Michigan's State Police
will soon be a co-educational force.
Gears started moving this Fall to add two women
to the force, primarily to deal with community re­
lations and juvenile case work.
Appealing as the jobs might sound, at salaries
ranging from $6,300 to nearly $9,000 annually, po­
licewomen are difficult to find.

College education is required for police work by
women In most jurisdictions, including the new
state posts.
ting work also comes in bandy. Police departments
which have employed women in the past note it is
.difficult to keep the female contingency up to full
force.
State Police administrates are hoping the rela­
tively good pay, rather liberal age and education
specifications, and a stipulation that either married
or single women may work in these posts will e n able them to get and keep a reliable female unit
on the employment rolls.

served and contrasted the changes and opportunities
in mission work 20 year* ago and today. Missionar­
ies go to minister unto people* less fortunate, and
have no ulterior motives, which is hard for mer­
cenary-minded persons in those lands to believe.
Their work in evangelism, education or medicine
is a hard and grueling life, not prosperous or glam­
orous.
She pointed out that the modem advances in the
underdeveloped nations are good for mission work;
the spread of radio, the printed word, the Laubach
method of teaching illiterates,to read, the coming
into leadership in these nations of men educatedm
mission schools. She also had words of praise for
the work carried out by UNICEF, CARE, the Peace
Corps, and the organizations in the United States
which send free medicines.
Mrs. Huff says she compares her busy life with

ed by patients at the home is varied, from stuffed
toys to combs, soap, aprons, coloring books, etc.
The suggestion was made to have members bring
items to the News office where they could be gathered together. They should not be wrapped as the
hospital attendants prefer to do this themselves. The
gift item* should be taken to the News office be
fore December 14.

�Post Office will
extend service
Postmaster Wilma F. DeCamp has announced that
the Nashville Post Office will extend window ser­
vice to 5:30 P. M. on Saturdays from now until
Christmas. Therefore window service will be pro­
vided the patrons from 8:00 A. M. to 5:30 P. M.
Monday through Saturday including December 24,
,
1966 for your convenience.
Please Mail Early and use Zip Codes on all your
mail. If there are some Zip Codes you still need
you may obtain them by contacting the Post Office.
If you wish to call our telephone number is 653­
6071. Zip Codes are more important than ever this
year.
Wrap your packages well Include sufficient pad­
ding. Include a card or piece of paper inside with
your name and address and that of the person you
arc sending the parcel to in case the wrapping
should be loose and come off. That way, you can
be assured your gift will not wind up in the dead par­
cel office.
Address your gifts and greetings clearly so that pos­
tal workers will have no difficulty in reading the
destination. Use first class postage on greeting cards.
This assures their being forwarded if the recipient
has moved. Also those that are undeliverable will
be returned when you include a return address o n
the envelope. The Post Office department has issued
a special five-cent Christmas stamp which will help
decorate your holiday mail
"We expect a record breaking mail volume this
Christmas and will need all the help we can get,"
Postmaster DeCamp said. There are three easy ways
in which you can cooperate with the Postal Services
and at the same time assure that you get on-time
delivery for your holiday gifts and greetings. You
should shop early, mail early and use Zip Codes.

month of reasonably tough weather through Janu­

What else can happen?
The Boughtons made a quick trip to Charleviox
last weekend. We went up on Friday night and
came back Saturday night.
.
On the way to Charleviox the car beater quit
working. We thought we had it repaired in Charle­
viox, but it quit again on the way back.
$ - Then on the dark expressway we developed a flat
tire on the hind wheel. Chris and I attempted to
change it, but we couldn't get the spare out of the
well because it was frozen in. It didn't matter
much though, because the jack wouldn't work any­
way. This was the first time we had attempted to
use the jack, so I suspect it has never operated. We
called a road service and'a nice man came with a
hoist to lift the back end of the car and pry the
spare out and change the tire. In the meantime
the dome light quit working and we couldn't see
what we were doing.
,
Back on the toad we noticed the gas gauge read '
"empty". This shouldn't be true, but we couldn't,
take a chance. Sure enough, the gas gauge is on
the fritz.
I sometimes think those fellows were right wl
they yelled "get a horse" at Henry.

The Village Council would like to thank the

Also our thanks to Carl Bensen, Lions member, for
donating trees lighted oneach of the poles in the
business district along with members of the Lions
club who helped cut and placed the trees on the
poles.
It is also the efforts of Woman's Club who give
us each year the well lighted tree in the corner of
the Village Park. This fine cooperation shows true

INDIAN NEEDS
•
&lt;; Junketing legislators have frequently been called
to task in the press for seemingly unnecessary trips
and futile studies which continue for years without
result and sometimes without any recommendations.
j But one group which has so far escaped criticism
is the now non-existent Senate Committee on Mich­
igan Indians. Much was expected cf this committee
but little beypnd its junket has been accomplished.
The study group, headed by Detroit Democrat
Charles N. Youngblood, spent part of the summer of
1965 touring the state in five new, borrowed travel
trailers, camping at the various Indian reservations
in Michigan.

Purpose of the tour was to study the living con­
ditions, schooling, job possibilities and general po­
tential for upgrading the life of the Indians.
I Indian leaden at the various reservations'. were
also invited to write to or appear at a committee
hearing regarding what they considered to be their
peoples' problems.
Working with an unlimited expense account au­
thorized by the Legislature, the committee gather­
ed a sheaf of letters and notes-Apd had a documen­
tary film made- of the study trip.
(
That is as far as the now defunct cortmistea’s
work went and ffiere appears little more in theTnaking. No written report was submitted to the 196 6
Legislature, and authorization for continued*com- •
mittee study was not sought.

On the dairy holdfog action resolution, the NFO
said, “Dairy farmers must decide whether they
want to accept more of what they have had in the
"The NFO has tried every means possible to a­
void the use of a holding action in milk, but it is
becoming more apparent that dairy buyes and;

adequate price for dairy products unless producers
demand the price and back up the demands with
their production."
“Such a bolding action must not be built on e­
motion," President Oren Lee Staley told the dele­
gates. "It must be a simple business approach- —
farmeB punfog a price teg on their products. This
holding action must be conducted in an atmos­
phere of calmness. This organization has never
advocated or condoned violence."
Minimum prices sought by the NFO included
$6.05 per hundred weight for Grade A milk; and
$5.00 per hundred weight for manufactured milk,
with added transportation differentials to outlay­
ing areas.
The NFO pointed out that "we have won our
battle of recognition from meat and grain proces­
sors and buyers" in noting the progress of educa­

The boy making the call has admitted to police
officials that he was involved, and possibly another
boy may be implicated. The boy making the call
had been in considerable trouble at the school late­
ly, then he dropped out within the last few days.
Other disciplinary problems also came up for dis­
cussion.
The board voted to pay bills from the general
fund amounting to $8,757.70 and the transferring
of $24,917.54 to the November payroll account and
$24,441.79 to the December 15 payroll account
were approved by the board.
It was reported that the Maplewood Parent-Teach
Teacher association of Vermontville has donated
$200 toward blacktopping the playground area.
In discussing the athletic program, it was noted
that a full schedule had been arranged for the
wrestling team, but the participation and interest,
especially in the heavier weight classes, is lacking.
Unfortunately the school does not have a boy wrest­
ling in all the 12 weight classes. If the situation
continues it will be very difficult to schedule mat­
ches in future years.
A ninth grade basketball schedule of ten games
has been arranged, and basketball for 5th and 6th
graders is being set up. The varsity team will par­

�Greek Orthodox baptism held
Katerina Edna Brumm, 11 month old daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Charles Brumm, was baptized m a
Greek Orthodix ceremony Sunday at the home of
the child's grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Cartejj
Brumm,' 133 Seminary St., Vermontville. y.'
Fr. John C. Poulos of the Greek Orthodix church
of, Lansing conducted the 40-minute ceremony and
Mrs. Charles A. Baryames of Lansing participated
as the godmother. About 25 close relatives and
friends witnessed the ceremony, the first ever to be
held in a Vermontville home. The baptismal font
and other paraphernalia was brought into Vermont­
ville for the special service.

The ceremony included the declaration of faith,
the sacrament of baptism, the submersion, the
sacrament of confirmation, the cutting of the hair.
and the communion. The communion will be held
later when the little girl is taken to the church for
this pan of the service.

The declaration of faith was answered by the
godmother, inasmuch as the child was too young,
of course, to speak for herself. The sacrament of
baptism was the annointing of the child's hands
and feet with oil, and the submersion was con­
ducted in the font of holy water. The confirma­
tion ceremony was conducted with annointing the
child’s head wirh nil

.

‘

A processional, with lighted candles, around
the baptismal font was also a part of the ceremony
In a church ceremony the congregation takes part
in the processional, each carrying a lighted can­
dle.

It is very unusual to conduct this type of cere­
mony in a home, but the Greek church in Lansing
has been sold, and until the new one is built. Ft.
Poulos is conducting such services in homes.

Ft. John C. Poulos immerses the child in baptism.

Dear Friends,

Wars between feudal
lords, provinces and states
were greatly reduced when
they were combined into
nations with national laws
and courts to settle dispute*.
If there were an Interna­
tional Court of law to which
nations could take their
grievances, short of war,
perhaps Christ's hope of
PEACE ON EARTH-GOOD
WILL TOWARD MEN might
at long last be realized.

NASHVILLE CLEANERS

At a recent meeting, the Eaton C
mediate School District set Tuesda
1967 as the next K-12 reorganizatir id election date.
The September 12, 1966 K-12 reorganization e­
lection failed by a large majority. This was a
county-wide election and all votes from all the
school districts were pooled together to be counted.
In the election of February 7, 1967 there will be
separate elections in each high school district, and
the majority vote determines the results of the e­
lection in this district.
The Maple Valley School District together with
the primary schools of Kalamo #3 (North Kalamo
School) Eaton County' and Maple Grove #2 (Mayo
School) Barry County, will vote on this date
whether to consolidate ai one school district.
This is not a vote on the merger of Maple Val­
ley Schools with any other high school district.
To be eligible to vote, a voter must be on the
local registration lists or register by Monday, Jan­
uary 9, 1967.
