There is nothing degrading about honest labor.

In fact the honest, dependable workman i.s Amer

ica's greatest asset today,

B u t the laborer is worthy of his hire. He should

have l i v ing wages, and more than a l iv ing wage,

too. We hearti ly believe that, but s t i l l more is to

IKJ said. The laborer, in order to at ta in comforts

and advantages, should not only labor at good

wages, but should also leam to save. I f he does

not do that, even with good wages there wi l l come

times when his lot wil l be unfortunate. We invite

the accounts of laboring men and wil l give their

business evei7 attention, no matter how small the

account.

Ask Yourself this Question ^ C a n 1 Afford to be Without a ^

• F O R D S O N Tractor • Heretofore farmers have said: "I can't afford a tractor." But last week the F O R D S O N price dropped $230. The price of the Ford Plow dropped $25. You can now buy a Fordson Tractor and Plow ready for the field for less than $5pO.

Think this over, Mr. Farmer. Really now, can you afford to be without a tractor at this price. Study it carefully. Ask the men who own tractors. Think of "the additional work that can be done. Tliink of the advantages of getting spring crops planted on time. Think of the time saved in fitting the seed bed.

Let your good judgment be your guide.

Get T h i s ! Ford prices are now loWer than ever before. The Ford

Company have come more than half way to meet the b u y r

ers. Orders^ are now coming in-^on't delay. Get your tractor in time for spring plowing.

S. COBB IN IJUiSING FEBRUilRY 2}

Irvin S. Cobb, author, lecturer and newspaper man, will speak in Lansing, Feb. 23, al Prudden Auditorium. He win,come under the auspices of the Lansing Fellowship Club of Business and Professional Women. His subject, a new one this year, will be "Pitty-lltty.''

V Beginning his literary career on the Paducah, Ky., paper, Cobb started work as a sorious-fliinded cub reporter. All of a sudden he began to see things in a humorous vein; then bp-gan his career tis'a "funny"; man, mefltally and- physically, uptll now his humprous pen, pictures, of the commonplace M ents of every day llfe are published from one end of the country toJ^he other.

The general verdict is that he-'is funnier in his platform work than sin his writings, and that a Co6b lecture may. be, deril iribed as 'lOobbesQue."

Today the • familiar by-line "By Irvin S. Cobb':, is Been in the metropolitan dailies all over the\ United States, and his stories appear regular* ly in such m£^xines as the Saturday '.Evening Post, Amierican, Life and |,many others. One secret ot Cdbb's suocess, of course, is h l S v a b l l i t y to keep b l B fingers on the pulse of Amei^ loanllfe. He is one>of the best in-formed of the day. He dabbles considerably In politic^, as/aa ianoiceat bystander, jbf course, and. he aees It-uattbns wblcb'are entirely ntlssed by many of the'btbisr-leadiag writers of tbe day.

\ Attention, Ford Owners! Foid ipa r t s , l ike most everything- else worth while, are countei'feiled. The manufacturers of thcse'-imitation parts are obviously not as interested as we are in maintaining the high standard ol" quali ty and the complete satisfaction of F o r d ownei-s. Imitat ion parts are maiuifacttired to sell at the highest possible rate of pi-ofit and the grades of steel used are consequently not the same h igh quality, specially heat-treated alloy steels specified in F o r d formulas for the manufacture of G E N U I N E F O R D P A R T S .

Don' t be misled—Insist upon G E N U I N E F O R D P A R T S made by the F o r d Motor Company, ' B y so doing you wil l get f r o m ;->5 to 100 per cent more wear from them, and you wi l l pay tlie lowest possible cost—the same everywhere.

Together they repaired to Jackson street bi i lkhead. Sure enough, tliere lay the Maggie, ruhli ing her bllsterc<l sides against tho bulkhead. Onptnln Scraggs wns nowhere in sight, but M r .

"We ' re ouinuiulMired," .Tack F l ahe r ty whispered. " L e t ' s wai t unt i l she's unloaded i in ' Gibney an'. Scraggs are ahonrri alone."

Cap t a in Scraggs thrust "a frightened face up tiirotigh the engine-rouni hatch, but at s ight of the battle royal taking place on the deck ''aft, his blood turned to water and he thought only of escape. T o climb up to the bulkhead without beiiig .seen was Impossible, however, so, not knowing what else to do, he stood on the iron ladder and gassed, .pop%yed with horror, at the unequal contest, i I

Backward and forward the tide of battle surged. For nearly three min- . utes aU Scraggs snvy was an tndlsr tinct. tangle of legs and arms; then suddenly the combatants 'disengaged themselves and Scraggs belield Mr. Gibney prone upon the deck with a gory fac« upturned to the foggy skies. When'.he essayed to rise and continue the contest, Flaherty kicked him in the ribs and Hicks cnrsed him; so Mr. Oibney, realizing , tJint all was over, beat-the deck with his'hand in token^ of surrender.

He was aware that Cap-tnlB Scraggs had fai led ignoinlniously to r a l ly to the Gil iney appeal to repel hoarders, and In liis^^owu expressive terminology he hoped that what the enemy would do to the das lnrd would be "n-plenty."

The enemy, iiie.'iinvhile, liad turned their at tent ion upon Scraggs, who had •lodged below lik<; a frigli toiied rabbit and sougli t sljelter in i l ie sl ian; al ley. H e ' l i a d stitlicient presence of mind, as he dashed. tJirougli the engine room, to snatch a' large monkey wntueii off the tool rack on Ihe wa l l , and, kneel ing .just inside l l ie a l ley entrance he turiie(l l i t . bay and tliriNiiened the Invaders wi th his weapon. Thereupon H i c k s and I'"iaherly pelted him', w i th lumps of coiiJ, but tlie sole result of; this assaul t was to forc;e Scraggs further back Into Iho shaft alley and nut ot n i i ige .

The towboat men held a counci l of war and decided to drown Scraggs out. Dan H i c k s ran up on deck and rel u m e d dragging tile deck lire hosu^lie-hind h im. H e thrust the brass nozzle into itio shaft-alley entrance and invited Scraggs to surrender uncondl-l i o i i a l l y or be drowned l ike a ki t ten . Scraggs, knowing his own lire hose, (ietled them, so Dan H i c k s started the l iunip wh i l e F l ahe r ty turned .in the water. Instantly the hose burst up on deck and Scraggs' .leers of t r iumph filled the engine room. The, enemy was about to draw lots to see which one of the two should c r a w l M n t o the. .shaft a l ley nnd throw a cupful of chlor ide of l ime (for they founil a can

of this in the engine roptti) In CMptiiIn| ••Scrnggs' face, when a shadow dni-k-',

Dan H i c k s e.xplahied the si tuat ion and t1i'<r just cause for d r a s t i c action tvliicli they held against the fugitive in the shaft alley. M r . McGuffey considered 11 few Hionients and made his ; decision. i " I f what you suy is true—-an' I a in ' i

A faint clieer came from the shaft alley. "Good o l d ' M a c . At -a -boy!"

"You ' re on, McGuffey. Nobody ever liad to beg mc to fight h i m , " D a n Micks repile<l cordia l ly , and c l imbed to the ' ' i ieck. T o his great .surprise, M r . McGuffey winked at h im and drew him off to the s teni of the Maggie .

"1 twig ." .Mr. Gibney had returned to tbe

Maggie ii.V. this t ime and he now took his station at the engine-room hatch and growled at F lahe r ty and abused him, " K e e p up , your courage, Scraggs.v," he cal led, as H i c k s and Mc-GufTey pranced around the deck In simulated combat. "Mac ' s wha l ln ' the whey out o' H i c k s an ' H i c k s couldn't touch him wi th a huggy whip ."

A t l l ie coiiclu.sinii of the three minutes of l iorse-ii lay, ,Mr, SIcGuffey came 10 Ihe hatc l i again, " H p wjth you, Klahertyr" he cal led loud enough, for Captain Scraggs to hear, "up wi th you before I go down after you ."

Flu l ie r ty was about to possess him-.self of a hatchet when the fnce o f h i s confrere, Dnn H i c k s , appeared over McGufl 'ey's shoulder and ' grinned knowingly nt h im. Imniedlatel.y, F l a herty hurled defiance at his enemies and came up on dock, and once more to Cni i ta in Scraggs came thi; du l l sounds of apparent conflict overhead.

Suddenly a cheer broke from M r Gibney. " A l l off.an' gone to Ooopcf

town, Scragg.sy," he shnuled. "Come up an' lake a look at the fa l len ."

Out of the shaft al ley came Scraggs wi th a rush, tossing lils wre i i c l i aside the better to cJinili tlie ladder, l i e was hal f way l y i wlui i i i\Ir. Glhnoj ' reached
