Hold Uy Club.

Members of the Ingham County Farmers club gathered nt the pleas­ant farm home of Mr . and Mrs. W. L . Cheney, Saturday for tho annual meeting of the club. The Cheney home presented a festive appearance

^ decorated witli Christmas bells and drive for funds are of the opinion that wedding bells for tho observance of the campaign wi l l be more successful if not undertaken nt the present. The further fact that the society has suf­ficient funds with which to carry on relief work for at least another month, also led the members of the board to their decision, it is said.

A n offer of the S. M . A . Corporation to sell the city and the association a supply ot canned niilk and cream at extremely low rates has also relieved the funds of both of a considerable drain. In the manufacture of ovfi-poratod milk and pantry cream there is alwivys an accumulation of jiimmod and dented cans which aro rejected at the labeling machine. The product is in every respect the same quality as is packed for tho trade but only per­fect cans are placed in cases for ship­ping. The price at wliich this is of­fered the city maltes it possible to supply this community in liberal quan­tities to families. Fresh milk wil l be supplied only whero there are sick people or infant children, city officials and welfare officers report.

A groat deal ot very good clothing bas already been received by tho wel­fare association and more is coming in daily, it is stated. This clothing is boing 'repaired, remodeled if neces­sary and then is issued as required. Underwear, shoes and stockings, for children is the great need. Kspecially is this true when snow and slush means wet feet and possible illness among school children.

Extension Of Time Slows License Sales

HUT FEW MOTORISTS II.WE PUR­CHASED 19S3 TAGS.

Business at the branch automobile license office managed by C. Ross H i l ­liard, county clerk, is at low ebb. Only a few automobile .owners have pur­chased the new 1932 plates. M r . H i l ­l iard points out that the present is an ideal time to procure the plates ' as there is no rush and immediate ser­vice can be given applicants without the long wait usual in former years. In previous years motorists have been required to procure plates before the new year but this year the secretary of state has announced that 1931 plates wll l be valid unti l March, 1. However, motorists are warned that other states probably wl l l not allow Michigan drivers to operate cars un­der 1931 plates outside of Michigan after January 1.

Mr . Hi l l i a rd states that If a used car bearing 1931 plates Is purchased the owner wi l l not need to pay $1.00 for a transfer of title provided 1932 plates a*» purchased within 10 days.

Arrest James Kelly On Charge Of Theft

C L A I i M H E W I R E D ELECTItlCITV A R O U N D M E T E K .

Mason will wind up its 1931 Christ­mas seal sale with a concerted drive on Saturday. Sales throughout the county have been very satisfactory, according to Elmer .larvis, county chairman. A t Leslie the Community club, the E . O. T. C. club and children of the public schools have united with successful sales reported. Williamston Klwanis club has undertaken the sponsorship there with equal results. A t Mason the Gi r l Reserves under di­rection of Miss Vera Benner, Mrs . Wi l l i am Porter and Miss Velva Minty have canvassed the city. On Satur­day they wil l comb the business dis­tricts with special emblems to sell to any who wil l give from a dim£ up.

A t Lansing headquarters of tho Tuberculosis society, there are being received daily hundreds of responses. Some have returned a portion of their stamps with the apology that they themselves are solely distressed and yet there are few who have not made at-least a smnll contribution to the cause. One letter is almost heart­rending. It reads, "As much as I re­gret it, it is impossible to even buy ten of those stamps. We live on potatoes and a little bread and milk, with no job and no money coming In."

Another writes, "As you say hard times hns hit us all but if we have good health we have a lot. When I received the seals, I thought I could not keep them but I will and trust tho little bit wil l help."

The need for the work of the society was never greater. In hundreds of families whero distress and poverty never before visited there nre many, many childron who wil l fall prey to the dread white plague unless care is taken to see that little children arc well fed, properly clothed and other precautions are taken. The Ingham county tuberculosis society works among those children, one of their major projects being the operation of the Children's Fresh A i r camp atop the big hill east of Mason during summer vacation months. Here frail bodies are built into strong ones, bad habits of diet are corrected, sunshine and rest are made to work wonders nnd many are saved from sanatorium care and treatment.

Every case which goes to the coun­ty or stnte sanltorium costs tho tax­payers from .?1000 up. A few cents invested in the Christmas seal may save a child from the disease and the county from great expense.

Saturday thore wi l l be stations at the Bal l furniture st.ore, Neely's cloth­ing store and the Chevrolet salesroom on west Ash street. From these cen­tral points members of the Girl 's Re­serves wil l work selling stamps and badges to all who wil l buy.

Collins was high point man for Charlotte with throe baskets. Stevens added a brace of field goals'while F is ­her and Day dropped in two free toss­es apiece.

Mason took an early load and the count stood 10 to 5 at the half. But in the third quarter the strategy of the Maroons in holding tho ball came to grief and Charlotte forged ahead 13 to 10. Lang was then inserted and his basket, following a free toss and another field goal, sewed up the game. The count stood 15 to 14 for nearly two minutes just before the whistle. Charlotte had several long shots at the hoop but luck was against them and none of the shots would stay down.

Barker and Mlchitsch alternated at right forward with Lang at left for­ward, except for one quarter when As­eltine relieved him. Strickland was at Center and was able to control tho tip-offs. Lamphere .and Swartout played good games at the guards.

The Maroons used a man-to-man defense which didn't work too well. Charlotte used a five-man defense which troubled the Maroons.

The Mason reserves also won by a score of 12 to 8. Hanes at center led the scoring with four baskets. Kinn i ­son and Barto each added a field goal. Kinnison and O. Lnng wero at the forwards, Hanes nt center, Holiey and Wileden alternated at right guard and Barto played left guard.

Two attractive games are scheduled for Friday. A team made up from such a bevy of former stars as E d ­gar, H i l l and Leonard of Michigan State, Curtis of Western State, Bell and Campbell of Ferris, Clipper and Peck of Olivet, Chamberlain and Cur­tis and Hollis Bartlett wi l l meet the varsity. A team chosen from former feminine stars wi l l also meet the girls ' varsity. Those expected to be avail­able for the alumni aggregation in­clude Margaret Eggers, Leona Ben-ardin, Irene Whiting, Addie Keesler, Mary Bullen, Maxlne Chamberlain, Norma Barr, Lucile Field and Leah Diehl . ,

Next Tuesday night the Maroons and the reserves wil l itieet East Lan­sing on the college town court. Coach Shaver of the Trojans has another promising team in the making, it is said, and thinks that his charges can take the measure of Mason,

Coach Carl Stewart is experiment­ing with a new combination. In scrimmage this week Lang has been at center. Barker and Mlchitsch at the forwards with Lee and Swartout at the £(|iards. This 'combination has

looked good and may be used against the alumni.

Pleasant, capie to grief as a re­sult of stealing a pair of silk, pajamas from Parkhurst 's dry goods store Sat­urday afternoon. Quick work on the part" of Mary Elizabeth Parkhurst, and the co-operation of the Ingham sheriff's department and the Jackson police mnde capture of the thieves possible within an hour of the theft.

Saturday while several customers were in the store tho two Mexicans entered. They made a small purchase of Mrs. C. A . Parkhurst nnd then ask­ed for a piece of cheese cloth, stating thnt one of them had a sore hand. A l ­though suspicious of the Mexicans, Mrs."Parkhurst went to another coun­ter and got tho cloth. The Mexicans left the store immediately. Within a fow minutes Miss Parkhurst entered

A t once she noticed an empty box on the silk coun­ter. The box had contained a pair of bright red silk pajamas. Miss Park­hurst asked if the goofls had been sold. No ono had sold them so Miss Parkhurst called the sheriff. •

A search was made for the Mexi­cans in Mason but they had left the city. Telenhone calls were rushed to Jackson, Lansing and other cities nearby. Tho sheriff called Byron Bushnell, a Leslie deputy, to tell him to patrol the road. While the sheriff was talking to Bushnell tho Mexicans drove through Leslie. Bushnell saw them and informed the Jackson police who took charge and met the party just north of Jackson whore they were held until the arrival of the Ingham officers.

Damages resulting from fire be­lieved to be of incendiary origin Mon­day night did about $2000 damage to the farm residence ' of Bert Nellis south of town. Two boys out hunting sparrows first discovered the flames and gave the alarm. The house has been unoccupied for several years, being used for the storage of furni­ture belonging to the family. A por­tion of this is the property of Mrs. Martha Shattuck, mother of Mrs, Nel­lis. Damage estimated at $1500 was done to the building and about $500 to the furniture, both fully covered by Insurance. ^

Firemen who investigated the prem­ises after the fire was under control, were convinced that the fire had been set by some firebug. Mr. and Mrs. Nellis had left their home several hours before the fire was-discovered and according to Mr. Nellis no person had been Inside the building for sev­eral days. Examination of the prem­ises convinced firemen and sheriff's officers called to the scene that,some prowler had entered the basement. In­dications that the fire was started by use of light kindling are said to have been found. Sheriff Sllsby stated Thursday morning that he was con­vinced the fire was the work of an Incendiary but confessed he had found no definite clue to work upop.

Prof. H . R. Hunt, professor of sociology at Michigan State college was the speaker for Kiwanis dinner Monday evening. He spoke upon Michigan's problem of the feeble­minded. He stated that this class of society is growing by leaps and bounds and that in Juno of the present year the mental hospitals of Michigan held 12577 feeble-minded and insane persons. The annual cost of support­ing those in state institutions is now approximately five million dollars, the speaker charged. This population is growing at the rate of three inmates every day of the year, he stated.

In addition to the number support­ed by the state there are large num­bers of these unfortunate people who are receiving aid from county and lo­cal sources and literally thousands who are at large and living along low standards, the speaker charged. He favored a wider application of steril-zation to avoid increase in their num­bers, referring to this as a plan for relief of taxation against our grand­children.

The so-called Muncie plan to pro­vide employment for the wage earner is to be given a trial in Mnson, accord­ing to decision by the common council at its session Monday evening. Ald­erman Wil l iam Swartout is father of the idea, volunteering his services to make a house to house canvass of his ward in an effort to induce every householder to consider doing soino job of repair or remodeling work on his home or premises lo provide at least a few hours work for some wage earner. Alderman Will iam Barber of the second ward promised his services In making a similar canvass of the homes on the west side.

The Muncie plan is so-called be­cause of its success in that Indiana city. Thore a groat many homes aro being modernized, giving employment to carpenters, bricklayers, plasterers, plumbers, electricians and other arti-sians. Incidentally of course every dealer in builders supplies was sur­prised to find his customers not only buying moro but paying cash instead of depending on credit. Tbe city dole list was practically eliminated and everybody was said to be better off. tho property improved of course being of considerable more value.

The plan involves 100 possibilities and includes about every improvement possible to be mnde to a home from nailing a now board ovor the hole in tho porch fioor lo complete moderniz­ing of homo from recreation room in the basement to new roof. Electrical household equipment, new heating plants, sun porches, dormer windows, insulation, screens for summer use, repaperjng of rooms, cedar lining for clothes closets, repairing of wood­work, installation of added lights whore desired, new hardware, nnd manifold other improvements to give employment aro listed on the sheets which have been printed and are be­ing distributed by the canvassers.

Supply of these 100 suggestions is being distributed in every home in the county through the public schools but in Mason'i t is planned to make an in­tense and personal appeal for every householder to provide at least one day's work for some mechanic or lab­orer. It is pointed out that not in years has it been possible to make as much improvement for so little money ns now. Both materials and wages are at low points. "Do it now—save money and save some family from going hungry", is the slogan of the Muncie plan.

The NEWS is in receipt ot a tribute from one of its oldest and most val­ued rural correspondents, Mrs. Lucy C. Robertson, formerly of West Au­relius, but more recently residing in Eaton Rapids. Mrs. Robertson writes, "I have read the NEWS since I came to this county 64 years ago and I am honest In saying It gets better and better. Also wish to teU you I like the editorials appearing and the way you talk up to some who need It— with a kick thrown In besides."

Mrs. Robertson has written the West Aurelius correspondence for more than 47 years and wonders If there are any others who can equal her record. The publishers would like to learn if there are others with equal or longer years of service to this newspaper.

BACK ON THE JOB. George H. Leverett, Mason pioneer

grocer, now probably In'buslness long­er than any other'looal merchant,, has returned to his store after ten weeks absence during which he was confined to. his home with Illness. His sister, Mrs. Jennie Richards, cared for him. During his absence from th& store his brother. Will, of Pontlac, attended the business here. Mr. Leverett is very happy to be back In the harness again and desires to thank all his friends and patrons for the- many kindnesses extended hlra.

More than 300 men received their checks for working upon the state and county highways in Ingham county Wednesday. The pay period covered the first 15 days of December. Gibbons Howlett, clerk of the county road commission, states that more'men are now employed upon the county high­ways than at any other time. How­ever, the total amount of the payroll Is small because the men are work­ing alternate weeks with some of them receiving only a few days of work. This policy has been adopted to relieve the unemployment situation, the commissioners explain.

A t a meeting of the commission Saturday an,order for 100 tons of cal­cium chloride was placed with, the De­troit Soda Products company from its Wyandotte plant. The contract price is lower than in former years. Deliv­ery wi l l be made early next summer.

Producers Give To Community Stores

GENEROUS G I F T S O F V E O E -. T A B L E S AND FRUITS.

The city welfare store has received a considerable quantity of winter vegetables and apples which have been donated to the poor. The cellar of the building has been made ready and potatoes are now also being stock­ed. Potatoes are purchased direct from nearby farmers,

i arge quantities' of beets and car­rots have been donated by Sheriff H, W. Sllsby. ^urnlps are the gift of Rev. J, H. Davis and apples have been given by George Graham and R, C. Dart. Winter, cabbages, parsnips and other winter vegetables are hopM for from some other generous producer who has a surplus. The vegetables not only make a pleasing variety for the family fare but aids materially in stretching the cash donations to their limit. .

High School Youths Unhurt In Accident

CAR DRIVEN BV W A Y N E I'OLEK HITS T E L E P H O N E POLE.

A party of five Mason school stu­dents returning from the basketball game at Charlotte Friday night es­caped unhurt when their car struck a telephone pole near the Michigan Cen­tral crossing on Columbia street in Mason. Wayne Foler was the driver of the car. With him were Lyle As­eltine, Wil l iam Peek, Morris Strick­land and Harold Glynn. The car was badly damaged. Foler states that he was driving at a moderate rate of speed and can not account for the crash.

Derwood C a m and Wil l i am Maclam, high school students, also figured in an accident at Willoughby road Sun­day night. Another car came out of a side road without stopping and Carn drove his car into the ditch and a con­crete headwall to prevent a collision with the automobile. Neither C a m nor Maclam was hurt although the car was considerably damaged.

Three Town Treasurers Fail To Secure Bonds

ONONDAGA, WILLIAMSTON, ING­H A M D E L A Y COLLECTIONS.

A few pennies spent for tuberculosis Christmas seals by thousands of Mlch-Igin folks will mean the difference be­tween life and death for hundreds of Michigan school children.

BROTHERLY LOVE. Brotherly love took a new turn Fri­

day evening when six hens ahd a Ban­tam rooster were stolen from a farm near Haslett, Tracks in "the snow and blood and feathers In the car led offi­cers to the guilty parties, one a brother-in-law Of the owner. At the time-of the raid, the wife of the thief was visiting her sister, tbe wife of the owner, who was confined In a Lansing hospital.

According to Hubert R. Bullen, county treasurer, all township treas­urers have now filed satisfactory. bonds for the collection of state and county tax except the treasurers of Ingham, Williamston and Onondaga townships. , He expects these treasur- • ers to have made arrangements for their bonds within the next few days. Misunderstandings and disagreements among Lansing aldermen over the ex­pense of surety bonds for the city, treasurer there have delayed th'e col­lection of taxes in that city for several days. The bonds have now been filed and collections are under way.

Amendments to the tax laws en­acted by the 1931 session sought to protect public monies against the de­falcations of officials and the succes­sion of bank failures in southeastern Michigan. Surety companies also tightened the reins on this class of business so that many treasurers of the state have been forced to relin-' qulsh their offices to others of greater personal responsibility

Filth in the Movies Again the country editor finds himself entirely beyond

his depth. Ear ly in November, in discussing the dan­gers to society ot the leisure which the inventive genius of a modern age has made possible, reference was made In these columns to the Influence of the talking picture upon tlie lives of our people and more especially upon the youth. Reference was made to tlie fact that no other form of entertainment approached the niin theater in its appeal or in the number of hours devoted to its enjoy­ment by young and old alike,

"Tlie movie will cluase tedium, but how", w.as the query. And for the purpose of discussion we named seven feature films showing that week In Detroit, the titles to which indicated sex pollution and crime glori­fication.

We were writing for the benefit of our own readers. We registered ii hit way down in New York city where Carl E , MiUiken is hired to defend picturedom, Mr , Mil l ikcn is secretary to the Motion Picture Producers and Distributoi's of America, the outfit which VVIII H , M.ays heads as president, Mr, Mllllken was at the head of the Northern Baptist association when Hollywood called him to sugar-coat Its offerings .and deodorize its social stench. Previous to this he had served on the International committee ot the Y , M , C, A, , on various boards of trustees for educational institutions, had ten years of experience in the Maine legislature and served two terms as governor of that state. The reader wil l observe that as a Baptist Mr, Miil lken ranked right alongside Wi l l Hays who was plucked from the Presby­terian fold, also to show the public how good and pure the movies really are becoming,

Mr , Millilten writes this editor a solid seven pnge let­ter, just the kind of a letter such a high grade gentleman is expected to write. In it he mildly chides the N E W S for intimating that pictures mny be judged by titles and suggests that one should know the kind of picture being shown before he enters the theater,

—0— Moving pictures, silent and talkie varieties, are pri­

marily recreational in their appeal. Most picture goers, we believe, attend the theater to spend otherwise idle lime. They have neither the time nor the inclination to read extensively the advance notices or the various crit­icisms offered. They must rely upon the theater owner to provide clean pictures and today under chain manage­ment the features are by no means of his own picking.

To show the utter helplessness of the situation we refer Lo two enclosures which Mr, Mllllken was kind enough Lo send along with his letter. One lists about 1500 pic­tures recently released or In the making. Another se­lects 100 of the best pictures released during eight months of the same period. Both documents are from Lhe press of the picture producers association. But the startling disclosure is found in the fact that out of the 100 best pictures J U S T 17 A R E L I S T E D A S OP H I G H E N T E R T A I N M E N T V A L U E , Seventeen out of 1500 is not a high ratio even for filmland. The average indi­vidual can scarcely be expected to browse his recrea­tional feed out of such foul pasture, without pulling an occasional thistle or biting now and then Into a tuft of skunk-weed,

But Mrs, T, G, Winter, public relations, picture pro­ducers association, has written a stronger editorial than this editor can hope to pen. Italicized along with her list of 100 she writes, "There is a large output of social dramas that loom large in public appeal, that command large audiences and that are generally linked in their picture production, with the names that are most popu­lar in star-land, which we cannot recommend because they are frequently oversexed or seem to glorify a life of loose moral standards and make glamorous the primrose path,"

And in anotlier paragraph on another page of the same booklet Mrs, Winters cautions parents thus, "Do not let your children go without direction to any picture that happens to be showing. With the advent of the talking picture, there are many that are all right for adults that are quite inappropriate for juniors, either because of the sophisticated theme or because they are uninteresting to the child mind."

Within the week this writer escorted two young girls to a big city theater which features a children's pro­gram on Saturday afternoon. Literally thousands of chil­dren, some accompanied by parents or other adults, some attending in child groups of a dozen or more, were pres­ent, A special comic film was an added attraction to draw juvenile patronage. What was the main offering that afternoon? The Yellow Ticket! This film is de­scribed as a screen drama of Czarist Russia just before the revolution. In reality It Is the story of a Russian girl flghting for her honor against depraved public ofifi-clals—a sordid, debasing picture unfit for any child or adolescent and with little to commend It even to the adult.

No, one cannot depend upon advertising as a guide to picture recreation. Good pictures are given bawdy titles to bring patronage, and bad pictures are screened behind respectable titles.

Even censoring bodies cannot be relied upon. The De­cember release of the motion picture review prepared by the General Federation of Women's ciubs refers to mo­tion pictures as "stronger In Its influence than any other medium". Public opinion is declared to be moulded by it and its effect upon religious and secular groups is commented upon, those who witnessed the Cuban Love Song will be interested 'to know ' that this particular group recommends this-offering as suitable for older adolescents. Just what uplift a fifteen year old girl or a seventeen year old boy would receive from that bamboo bedroom, scene li difficult to imagine.

But why continue 7 . No one has yet made a lily from the ear of a sow and go until the fllth is cleaned from Hollywood, the screen will contlnuis to pour Its offal Into the life stream of the nation. Certain it U that aa long u the cash reglatertn the. box oflice ringa loudeit on lewd pioturei, lewd pictures will dominate screenland. It tl allup to tbe public. AU that waa Intended la the flrat

place was a warning to parents to keep their children away from the picture theater unless they are dead sure of what is to bo shown.

It is a small thing to toss a dime or a quarter to a boy or gir l and tell them to go see a movie. It is a much more difficult t.ask to wipe away the evil influence which may be planted 'deep in the very soul of a child by a sensual picture, a lewd line or song, the glorification of crime, tlie undermining of moral standards or the de­struction of child ideals.

Meanwhile we pause to thank Mr . Miillken, Mrs . Win­tor, the federated women and others for tho new light thrown on a daric picture,

Juggiing Tax Demands Michigan is just beginning the harvest from the seed

which lias boon sown during the past two years or more, Detroit, for Instance, Is facing bankruptcy because tax­payers are not coming across with their 1931 city taxes. Many property owijers of course are not able to raise the money. Others are taking advantage of moratorium legislation designed to aid the unemployed but really aid­ing those with wealth.

Two or three months extension on his tax time does not mean mucli to a man out of a job and on the dole lists for a yoar or more. Last year the state under the leadership of certain groups of legislators extended the time for paying taxes, remitting interest and penalties after prompt payers had extended every resource to bor­row money to avoid penalties. This year again there have been rumors and suggestions and threats of "tax­payers" strikes and similar pieces of nonsense until thou­sands wlio could pay are just leaning back and expect­ing another moratorium.

Then too there is the motor license tax, A great deal of highway work has been undertaken, a great deal of money being required to pay for it. The state anticipat­ed next year's revenues to get this work under way to relieve unemployment. People are not coming in for their license plates as hoped for. It is feared that some work may have to be abandoned unless auto owners buy 1932 license plates more readily. But why should they? Last year the legislature set the dead line ahead to March 1. This year long before the plates were on sale the license tax division announced that old plates would be permitted until March 1. This moratorium does not help the poor devil whose only hope for supporting his family lies In a road job on half time—he cannot buy March 1 any more easily than he could on December 31. The fellow who gains is the motorist who could pay now if he had to but who wi l l not pay until the last day of grace. This class includes many large corporations which might just as well pay now. To plead for prompt payment in the face of unwarranted extensions will re­sult in little return. Taxpayers have been educated to wait expecting a reprieve,

Ci ty councils have succumbed to the lure of these poli­tical gestures. Extension of penalty dates has become the rule. Our own county has just adopted a resolution entirely unwarranted and i robably illegal in which the county treasurer is instructed to juggle his tax records and Ignore the terms ot the statute to grant a morator­ium on county money advanced for township poor relief. Such an arrangement offers no relief for the property owner who pays his taxes and means nothing to the owner who fails to pay.

Taxes will never be paid on time as long as the air Is filled with idle talk about delays in inflicting the penal­ties. Taxes should not be spread except for the necessi­ties of government. Once spread they should be con­sidered in the light of an inexorable demand for payment at a certain date. Juggling dates to curry political favor is poor business.

State Is Milked Again Sinking funds have become the plaything of politi­

cians. If the reader has any doubt concerning the above statement they should read the account of the failure of Macomb county to dispose of a $700,000 bond issue. The bond issue was authorized to provide funds for the re­habilitation of the general fund of the county. In other words Macomb county has spent faster than their tax payers could earn and Instead of calling a halt county officials have promoted a bond issue.

These bonds were offered investors and were not tak­en. Detroit banks were appealed to and they also turned cold shoulders against the Issue. Affairs down Macomb county way are not so good and Detroit financiers know it.

The state has certain sinking funds which are sup­posed to be Invested In soupd bonds in order that long time Issues of soldiers bonus and highway bonds may be retired when due. Instead of waiting until the bonds fall due, a tax is spread each year to be held in trust to re tire the bonds at maturity. Naturally it is supposed the bonds tbe state buys from its sinking funds should be good bonds. Responsibility rests with the state treas­urer and other members of the administrative board.

Now come Macomb county politicians to plead with the state to buy their questionable bonds. They cannot sell them to insurance companies, trust companies, or big shot Investors. But the state, oh yes, the state Is different. Suppose the bonds are shady. If there are losses', more taxes can be spread and the deficit easily made up. The state has other bonds too in Its strong box that are about as valuable as post-war German marks. A year ago a scandal was averted by the dis covery.of questionable bonds bought by a former state treasurer and subsequently turned back and the money replaceil.

Buying bonds with election coupons attached is bad business.

Some Plain Christmas

Talk

What has become of all the gifts given last Christmas? Thousands of dollars are spent every year for gifts— and sometimes this money is spent rather foolishly.

i

That's why in this year of practicalities we are urging gifts of utility. Give something useful—something that will serve work days and holidays, the year around. Other gifts may please for a moment, for a day, or a week. Gifts of utility wear long and well, and are the gifts your friends appreciate most. We believe common sense should be applied to Christmas buying. This store offers a host of' Gifts of Utility, and our stock in­cludes gifts for all the family—young and old.

Wednesday evening meeting at 8. "God the Preserver of Man", was

the subject of the lesson sermon in all Christian Science churches on Sun­day, December 13.

Among the citations which com­prised the lesson sermon was the fol­lowing from the Bible: "The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and dellvereth them." (Ps. 34:7).

The lesson sermon also included the following passage from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy: "Accidents are unknown to God, or immot'tal Mind, and we must leave the mortal basis of belief and unite with the one Mind, in order to change the notion of chance to the proper sense of God's unerring direc­tion and thus bring out harmony. Un­der divine Providence there can be no accidents, since tliere is no room for imperfection in perfection." (p. 424)'.

Everyone took a hand in the Polecat . scoring with Wayne Spenny showing the way with five baskets and a charity toss. Harry Spenny, Eggers and Swartout caged two baskets each. Pierce and Tucker each counted once from the charity line.

ALBERT HALL BEGAN BUSINESS CAREER AT 12 ON DOL­LAR A WEEK SALARY.

Dunning Store Was Counted As Most Progressive Here In Early Day, No Sacks, No Cartons, No Computing Scales In

One Of City's Pioneer Groceries. Merchandising' methods have chang­

ed a great deal since 1874, according to Albert J , Hal l , retired financier, who now claims three places of abode —Mason, Los Angeles and Pleasant Lake, Mr , H a l l retired as cashier of the Farmers Bank in January of 1923 after thirty yenrs as head of that in­stitution. Since that time he has spent his winters in California and his sum­mers in this vicinity most of the time at his Pleasant Lake cottage. On ac­count of lRrs , HaU's health it is likely they wi l l reside here during the pres­ent winter.

A t the age of 12, Albert Hal l , the son of a widow, began work as deliv-ql-y boy and general helper in the N , A, Dunning store which occupied the cast half of the building now occupied by A , A , Howlett .fe Company, He worked from enrly morning until late in tho evening and received the muni-ncent sum of one dollar per week.

Albert continued working full time during vacations and before and after scliool during the winter. When A l ­bert was fourteen, M r . Dunning left for an e.Ktended business trip leaving his young assistant in full charge of the store with authority to fire and hire as he deemed best. The business Wfis an extensive one and besides a coinplete line of foodstuffs and crock­ery an extensive business in farm produce was carried on. When the wool buying season was on, it is re­called that frequently the line of farm wagons extended from the store to the Rayner farm, now the county park east of town.

Interviewed as to the change in Christmas buying, Mr . Hal l stated that on .account of the times much less was made of gift buying then than now. Only a few of the stores laid in stocks of lioliday goods and those of a very practical nature.

More'than'89,000 people are back at work as a' result of the 'introduc­tion of new 1932. Che vrolets, and?20,-000,000 worth 'of new cars or parts had already been built at the time of the public announcement, according to a statement released by, W. S. Knudsen, president and general man­ager of the'Company.

The statement follows: "Chevrolet Motor company has its normal force of men back on the job after a two-week's shut-down for inventorj; and an equal period of model-change'shut­down during the months of October and November.

The company's policy during the last year has been to retain as near an equal number of men on the pay­roll as possible and vary the hours according to the demand for oars; in addition, during the short demand periods, inventory has been biiilt up to increase the weekly hours to the greatest possible number.

"The result has boon that the num­ber of employees in any month during the year, except the shut-down month of October, has not varied more than Ti/r on a total of 3'1,000 men, and the hours have averaged close to forty per week; 39'/^ to bo exact. Wlien inven­tory takes place, no workman is re­quired to turn in jhis badge but re­mains on the payroll until work starts up again.

"Present force numbers 34,000 men working 4 days or nights per week minimum, and more than 1520,000,000 worth of new cars or parts for new cars have been manufactured. Of the 34,000 employees now on tho payroll, over 25,000 are employed in the com­pany's plants in Detroit, Flint, Sagi­naw and Bay City.

"In addition to "the 34,000 men em­ployed countrywide b y Chevrolet, Fisher Body Corporation maintains 20,000 men working exclusively on Chevrolet bodies, and in addition to this, the dealer organization and their salesmen amount to 35,000 people, leaving a grand total of o\hv 89,000 people working directly on Chevrolet product.

"Tho company feels it responsibility during times like these to extend ev­ery effort to keep its organization em­ployed, and with the splijndid country­wide reception of the i;ow 1932 Chev­rolet, lias every confidence in being able to do its "bit in the most con­structive way."

license to compound drugs. In those days most physicians confined them­selves to the use of drugs in their practice. There were no Park, Davis & Co, tablets or compounds and the druggist was an important person. He was not called upon to mix fancy drinks at the fountain nor prepare toasted sandwiches for co-eds and sheik admirers. Quinine was a bet­ter seller than rouge and castile soap in large cubes was about as far as tho average drug store went in the toilet and cosmetic trade.

After several years as a partner in tho business, the Dunning' store was disposed of and Mr, Hal l clerked for a timo for A , L , Vandercook, then in

, business ncross the public square, Fo l -i lowing this the bank job opened up 'and Mr, Hal l left the merchandising

field for banking and finance, Mr , Dunning went to Washington where he eiigaged in journalism and editorial writings for middle west newspapers, II is snid on good authority that a lot of fine speeches delivered on the floor of the senate and house at Washing­ton were prepared by Mr . Dunning, himself a fluent and convincing' public speaker.

A word picture of the progressive food store of 1874 is given by Ha l l as containing very few articles on shelv­es. As stated before very few canned goods wore available or offered. Dried fruits were bought and sold freely. Raisins, dates, prunes, apples, poach­es, cherries and other dried fruits wore all displayed in bulk containers. So wore spices, coffee, tea and other im­portations. There were rows of box­es containing salt cod-fish in the side, smoked herring nnd halibut. Barrels of sugar, salt, craclcers, flour and oth­er co'mi-nodities took up considerable lloor space. A great deal of indigna­tion followed wlien one Mason grocer bought some covers to protect his goods against contamination — and against lijs nibbling customers. Cheese was left-on the counter for the pros­pective customer to taste before buy­ing while herring and crackers or a strip peeled from a box of codfish stayed tho appetite of the country buyer against the long rido home.

Coarse salt was bough.t in carload lots. Kerosene was available only in barrels and this too was bought by the carload from Pennsylvania points. A t one time Mr . Dunning had his oil shipped through Mason to Lansing and then employed teams to haul it back here. Lansing had two railroads and the freight rate to that point was so much leSB than to Mason where only railroad was available that ,a considerable saving was effected by tho long haul over sand and mud roads. ,

The molasses jug was one of the main articles of household necessity and on a cold winter day it was a long tedious task to draw a gallon. Dry salt .pork was also a fast selling com­modity, especially during summer months, many bariels of fat back .salt pork also being sold.

Great quantities of butter and eggs were taken from the farmers in ex-, change for groceries. The store that offered best prices for farm produce was the one that held the farm trade. Mr . Ha l i remembers when a dozen eggs wrapped in paper, were frozen on a, delivery t r ip-one ' severe\, winter morning, the trip being one t o f only two bloqks from the store, . f ,f'f

AURELIUS FARMERS HAVE MORE THAN .800 MONTANA LAMBS ON THEIR COLUMBIA ROAD FARMS.

Four Men Are Kept Busy Looliing After Huge Flock Of Sheep, Other Big Flocks In Inghani

County, Also. There is no unemployment problem

for C. H , Smith and his two sons, Howard and Forest, and Dean War­ner, employed by them. They are busy just about 24 hours a day caring for what is probably the largest flock ,of sheep in Michigan, They have more than 3800 Montana Iambs on their farms. These Iambs are being facton-ed for the market. Mr . Spilth and his two sons bought the lambs in October .md wi l l not be shipping any oift t m -; i l after tho holidays when thov be­lieve the lamb market wi l l be slfghtly better. .

these lamns aro aivicVd into four flocks. Forest Smith has mffre than 12i.'0 or. ills farm. A flock ot upwavrls of ICOO is c.-iicd for at the ofo Clark farm, now owned by Howard SrnitIL A t the C. H . Smith farm are 900 lambs while COO are across the road :it the farm of Howard Smith. The farms all front on the CoIunibiH road, west of Mason. Botweon C. H . Smith and his two sons 440 acres of the fin­est land in the county is owned.

The Smiths and Dean Warner, v.'lio has been with them for 12 years, know sheep. They have won the rep­utation of being among the largest feeders in the Middle West. VVhen market conditions have been right lhe Aurelius men have cleaned up in a big way. When the market conditions have been bad the Smiths have taken their losses philosophically. Tiiey nre not too hopeful over this year's" ven­ture but as Howard Smith says, "If everybody would get into tho harness and do something we would have bet­ter times. But if everyone waits fnr his neighbor lo make tho first move we will all go down together."

Each flock is cared for in a similar manner. They are housed in protect­ed yards and sheds except for an hour or so a day when they aro driven to corn fields v/here the lambs forage on ' corn loft standing. The sheep are fed | mixed feed in their long feeding raclcs. | And it is some job to mix tho feed ; and cui'ry it lo all the racks at tho four feeding stations. Besides the carn in the fields tho sheep are fed j oats nnd flax chaff along with hay | and olhor grain. Hugo stacks of straw j are used to keep tho feeding pons dry] and clean. ' I

Tho finx chiiff is shipped here i n ' curlo:id lots from westcin Canada. Tho flax seed in tho cliaff soi'ves ns a conditioner.

To bi'iiig the moro than 3800 lambs lo Mason took 12 doublo-dock freight cars. If all of the lambs wore sont to market at the samo time it woiiltl take more than fourteen freight citrs. The lambs put on lin avorltgo of 10 pounds a month.

Tho part that agriculture plays in

the operation of railroads is shown by the records of the Smiths. They have given work to hundreds ot men liy their operations this year alone. The Iambs were raised and herded by Montana ranchers. They wore hauled to Chicago from Montana. Tliey wore again loaded on cars in Chicago and brought to Mason. Froiu Mason they wi l l be transported to Detroit, Buffalo or Chicago again. Then after they are killed the ment wil l again go forth to consumers.

The Smiths sell no farm produce from their 4'10 acres. A l l of the grain is saved as feed for sheep. It is also necessary to buy food from other far­mers. Under this method tho farms are Itopt fertile. From the feeding yard on tho farm of Forest Smith alone upwards of 1200 loads of fer­tilizer is drawn eijch year.

This yenr the flocks of the Smiths are larger than ever before. Tho greatest numbor at the farms pre-viouslyt was 3200. This year that mark has boon exceeded by "more than 600.

The lambs are mostly of coarse wool brooding although a'few showing fine wool breeding aro scattered among the flocks. The old adage about there being a black sheep in every flock also holds true. Several are very dark in color. The lambs aro tame and easily handled in spite of their being brought up on the open range. The Smith say the western lambs aro easier to handle than aro native lambs. Nearly all of them bear brands, some,being marked with paint whilo others have had thoir ears cut in a certain pattern.

The Smiths are agreed that caring for 3800 lambs is a lot of work but to them it is interesting. A l l four of tho men, C. H. Smith, Howard and Forest Smith and Doan Warner, are hustlers and they go through no false motions. Each day the feed is mixed and sacked for a dny or so ahead. Water is pumped by electric motor and gasoline cn.gine right into the feeding yai'ds. With 3800 lambs a lot of lieadwork must go with muscular toil. It means that onch luan must cnre for about 1000 Innibs bosirtos doing tho other necessary tasks on 'MO aci'OB.

Whilo C. H . Smith and-sons aro tho largest shoop foeders in this section of the state, thero ai'c several othon big flocks. Among those with tho largest flocks aro Wilrd Ballon, 13. G. Spink & Son. Collins Mimtington nnd Edgar Bi'o:s., llli of Aurelius; E, J. Diu'ling and Robei'l Riggs of Alaie­don; and Geoi'go Collar of Wheatfield. Many of these flocks will be inspected by lamb foeders who will make a tour of the counly this week.

One of our chief heiiUh problems is lhe ])i'evontion of lhc onset of degen-ei-ative diseases. These may be listed as arthritis, heart disease, arterial dis­ease, 13rlght's disease, diabetes, men-titi deterioration and chronic liver and intestinal ailments occurring In the later decades,

Tho pi'oblcm Is a growing one, be­yond the control of public hesiith offi­cials, Tt Is often beyond tho control of the doctor and the investigator, and when ono of these diseases has settled thoroughly in the system the patient can do little but curtail his activities and accept tlic situation with a phil-Osnphical attitude.

It would seem that the prevention of those conditions is more thnn wc Can hope to accomplish but physicians long In practice lissuro us that many limes the patient escapes insidious disease, luid that an attitude of hope­lessness is wrong. They Insist that the mitttei' Is a lieisonai ono with each In-flividiial, and that, in spite of the in-lUience of lieredity and environment, delinite slops may be taitcn to avoid the degenerative diseases.

The first measure depends upon the attiludo of the individual. Mo must accept aiid follow tlio principles of right living if he is lo enjoy a fair alilniint of liealth. Many people de­liberately shorten their lives by habits wliiCli miglit well be ilvoided. .^s an o.Kample, the degenerative diseases Caused by alColinlism alone have in­creased tliicefold during recent years, !ind the consumption of tobacco has Increased fastel- than can be account­ed for by tho growth of popuhition, A glal'iug fault of most people is th.it thoy eat too much nnd this, together with irreguhii'lties In o,\erclso and l'ost, Certliinly violates many of lho laws of nitture.

It is natural for tho human body to r'omain well, nnd the unalterable tendency for tissues is to bo lieaitliy. This fact is oiii' greatest hope in the prevention of chronic disease.

T F P R E D I C T I O N S of a lower level of 1 health and a higher tuberculosis rate among Michigan young peo.ile, caused by present-day living conditions, come true. It will not bo beciuLse Princess Watassa has not travelled far enough and wide enough over Michigan to teach boys and girls how to bo healthy.

The Michigan Tuberculosis Associa­tion, which sends Watassa to Michigan schools, reports that In the three and ono-half years she has been at work, more than 275,000 school children have heard her Indian health stories. In that time she has been in all except two of the state's 83 counties.

Grade children as well as high school students delight to hear Watassa's legends, all of them carrying valuable health lessons for tha listeners. The programs are given entirely without cost to the schools, being fl^ianced by funds secured In the December sale of tuberculosis Christmas seals.

The work of Princess Watassa ts but one of the methods used by the Michigan Tuberculosis Association to promote health among children. Post­ers, bulletins, leaflets, and other health supplies are distributed widely in city, village, and rural schools. During the past twelve months alone, 48,000 cop­ies of a leaflet entitled "Foods for Growing Boys and Girls" have been given to residents ot Michigan.

Added health work among children, to offset Insofar as possible the effects of depression on child health. Is planned by the Michigan Tuberculosis Association for 1932. The extent of this work wil l be determined entirely by funds realized In the ChrlstmaB seal sale. In progress at the present time.

It's Christmas Time! And One of the Best Buying Opportunities You

Have Ever Had

To thousands of people Christmas will mean more than ever this year. With so many disappoint­ments suffered over material things people need to cling-to their faith in humanity. Those who give this year are sure to have their faith renewed as will those who receive. . /

It's Christmas time and never has there been such a buying opportunity offered. Stores are pack­ed with the finest selections in years and prices are the lowest in two decades.

Make out your shopping list. Visit the stores in . your own community and select the gifts for your friends. No matter how much you spend you need not feel that you are being extravagant. For in­creased buying is the spur that business needs for recovery. If you spend freely you will not only be giving someone pleasure when they receive your gift

but you, in great measure, will be helping hundreds of others all down the chain from producer to buyer.

Normal spending this year will mean employ­ment for thousands of men and women. Nomal buying in your own community will mean that more clerks will be employed. It will mean that business men'can pay their taxes to help the unfortunate. If you are a worker it will mean more work for you. If you are a producer it will mean money for those who buy what you produce.

So this year determine to spend normally. Do your buying this week before the last-minute rush. Buy from business men in your own community in or&er that your neighbors may be helped the most. Spend wisely, but spend. It will hasten business recovery.

Teamwork between the county road commission, farmers of Osceola coun­ty, and the county agricultural agent of that county has made it possible for tho farmers to obtain marl needed to prepare suitable seed beds for the sowing of alfalfa, without spending much money,

The county agent located several beds of excellent marl which were needed to correct the acidity of tho soil needed for the production of a le­gume which would add fertility to tho soil and furnish high quality hay for livestock. The marl was suitable t'or the purpose but the cost of getting it out hindered its use.

The county road commission agreed to loan an excavating outfit owned by the county for digging the marl if the owner ot the marl bed would agree to sell the jjiateri.al at a low price to liis neighbors. As soon as the owners of the marl beds agreed lo this, digging was begun at advantageously located beds.

Enough marl was taken out and used in 1030 to sweeten 1,500 acres of soil, and a still greater amount has been used in 1931, A n estimated sav­ing of $12,000 has resulted from tho use of marl as compared with the cost of other materials used for correcting soil acidity.

The marl has been sold for less thiin 50 cents a yard at the beds. The Osceola coufty beds are located in positions where it is easy to take the excatvating outfit, and they are in good condition for its use.

MICHIGAN AUTO THEFTS SHoW CONSTANT DECREASE.

L a w enforcing officers in Michigan yearly recover moro stolen automo­biles than the number stolen, records of tho dpartmont of state show. This apparent contradiction comes from tho fact that the number of stolen automobiles is decreasing rapidly, and from the recovery of a number stolen during previous years.

In 1930, the number of automobiles stolen was 5,265 while 5,364 were re­turned to their owners. For the first 11 months of this year, 2,877 vehicles were stolen and 3,078 recovered.

The reason given for the decrease is that only in the past two years police and deputy sheriffs have come to know that from department of state records can be quickly obtained full details of all vehicles; and have taken full advantage of the department data.

State Forest Experts Offer Aid To Farmers

WILL OIVB ADVICE REGARDINO FAIIM WOOOLOTS.

A plan has been devised by the for­estry department of Michigan State college whereby farmers can secure expert aid in improving their wood-lot, their winter's supply of fuel and sti l l aid thd unemployed. Expert for­esters will examine the woodiot, the timber that ought to be. cut to im­prove the stand and prepare a plan of. management for it. The fuel wood marked for cutting wi l l then be «ut by the unemployed who wil l receive half of the material cut for their labor, , •

"Cooperation between the unem­ployed and the owners of farm wood-' lots wil l bo ot boneflt to both," states Professof Herbert of tho forestry de­partment, "l^ost woodlots contain many trees that wi l l never return a profit to the farmer, they are only oc­cupying space that could grow trees of better quality. We wi l l be glad to mark tho trees that should be cut and prepare a plan of nmnngement pro­vided ttie farmer wi l l agree to allow the unemployed to cut on shares and under proper instruction and fuel wood that we mark,

"Farmei's interested in improving thoir woodiot and helping the unem­ployed should get in touch with their local relief'committee who wi l l make arrangements with the unemployed to cut the wood and with the forestry department at Kast Lansing to mark tiie wood to be cut,"

The Industrlnl plants of Milan have fairly burst the contlnes ot tho old city and many nre to be found 'In nu­merous populous suburb.? thnt have sprung up, especially since 1805.

One does not need eyes to know which is the favorite. The "oh's" and "all's," the SIKIIS nnd silences tell i t ; bnt, then, love is Imniortal, while war is transi­ent.

Lugano Is finite a different lake from Coiiio, although so near—but a slnsle r,ocky rldfje, un oiitlylnff .spur ot the Kreiit Alpine chain between. It is wonderfully picturesque, with Us stoop, wooded sides and quaint towns, pink nnd yellow und mnuve, stiigod iipwnrd from the hike like galleries nt n thoator. It there nre fewer lux-nrlous vllIiLs, fewer over-rich gardens, there Is inf re ot romantic naturalness.

On Conio one senses luxuriously n civilization two thousand years old; on Luguno one feels ngolcss nature'.s unmatched loveliness. It largely Swls.s politically. In nppenranco Lugano is wholly Italian—the half-wild Itallnn which recalls the ancient freedom-lov­ing Celt, not that which reminds us ot polished Uonio.

Lake Maggiore Is almost as well known, as niueh traveled, as Como. Its Indlvldtinllty is just ns strong ns that of the other two; to see one Is by no means to see nil.

Ono must mnke excursions nlong its shores and to tlio Borromonn Islnnds, which lloat so picturesfjiiely on its snrfnccs. One must climb tlie rocky hillsides nbout it nnd got new nnd surprising views of Its size mid splendor. One must see It in storm as'well as sun­shine; see the white snow to north­ward sharply dollncd agnlnst the blue sky; look in vnln for penks thnt nro hidden In swirling mnsses of mist nnd cloud.

E<litorl>U I wonder just how -many of the stu­

dents in our school realize how many of us are not citizens of this institu­tion. You know in order to be a cit i­zen you have to be a taxpayer and the taxpayers are the ones who enjoy the school's freedom and privileges. Now these students who are not citi­zens are residents and we have a great many of them here who are only dwelling or having an abode for a continued length of time—abiding or just being present, • Do you who are residents enjoy yourselves ? Do you not care to back up your school? Now that the bas­ketball season is opening let us all be in good standing. We have a very good team this year^ nnd we want to see them win. And besides all that the student council is to present us a favor next Tuesday if wc are* a citi­zen. How many are going to be pre­sented this token? Let's have 100% receiving it!

Cnuncil Proceedings The basketball budget for this sea­

son has been accepted, Harold Glynn has been appointed

basketball manager for this year. Favors liave been purchased for al!

students in good standing and will be presented lo ail those in good stand­ing Friday,

The student council voted to use the "White Elephant" plan of presenting Christmas gifts at the Christmas pro­gram December 22, Names wil l be drawn by cl.asses and the gifts given w i l l be something which may be of use to the receiver but are not of any material value to the person giving it. The committee in charge of the Cliristmas program is made up of Norman Dart, Max Wileden, Jeanette Freshour and Edgar Reynolds. They are working on the program which promises to be lots of fun for all.

Ohiipel Periods The Iligh school students were ad-

\lressod by Hev. George Bancroft of the Methodist churcli on Monday. Mo is to talk next week for a short per­iod. Tliat will conclude his vofy in­teresting three series talks. The iirst on Monday, December 7, was "The Song of Cheer," On Monday, the Mth , he talked on "The Star O f Hope,," We are all looking forward to hearing li im again next weelt.

Boys' Athletics Close

The heading merely explains the opening basketball game between M a ­son High and Charlotte High on the opponent's court last Friday night, December 11, The low celling kept the score down to some extent. The first half ended with the Maroons leading 10-5 but Charlotte made eight points in the third period to get- a three-poinf lead. Mason put the fin­ishing touches on in the final period by coming from beliind with five points to win 15-14.

The Reserves had little trouble sub­duing the Charlotte seconds. The score was 12-8 at the close.

Olirlsliults oreelingl! The student council O f Mason higli

school wislies to express Its sincere wishes of a Merry Chi-istmas and a happy New Year "to the students of Our school and to the loyal public.

The cnse was presented by the pro­secuting, attorney, who was no other than Roland Reed. Mil ler had secur­ed the famous criminal lawyer and eminent debater, Norman Dart, as his attorney. The presiding judge for 1931 was the Honorable Ranald Lang.

Both sides of the case were well presented and evidence was convinc­ing. Many witnesses were called on the stand and many delightful sur­prises were sprung on both sides and Judge Lang himself. To the aston-Isliment of Judge Lang he was asked to define "love" for little "Patty" Carriithers.

On Friday tho jury retired and the biggest iisrprise of the trial occurred wiien the jury foreman, Donnan Da-vitison, announced tliat the verdict of the jury was "guilty,"
