GRAND RAPIDS is GREAT.
The "cabinet Maker, sf fiostea. fsss a
IlttuE compliment.

In long arilcl reviewing the hisiofs
of the Grand Rapids furniture trace
and the reasons !, is prominence. a.,
American CABIN Maker, Of recent
date, contains this:
'fThe first reason, we believe, il the
fact that the men who twenty years or
so ago commenced business there IA
small ways IA the manufacture OF
spindle beds, wood scat chairs, soft
wood chamber sets. bureaus, tables.
etc, are prominent figures n the furni-
tnre manufacturing Interests of the
city today. Their money, their time.
their talents and AL are invested IN the
business IN which they made their for
tunes, and they have been satisfied 10
continue ID business with winch they
were familiar. and dad not aspire 10 be
railroad magnates or hnanciers, or any
OF the other gllttering figures which
have seduced go many successful iurnl-
tire men anu swept from them their
| fortunes.
ave call TO mind more than a score
of men IN various sections of the
country who after attaining comfort
able fortunes IN the manufacture Of
| furniture, turned their backs on iher
successful business careers, and made
failures OF the rest Of their lives.
-"1he second reason. We believe, u
! the fact that during the twenty years
| these manufacturers have been IN busi-
ness they have never missed an oD-
portuniiy TO talk Grand Rapids; every
body who bought furniture or who
could be OF any use 10 the furniture
trade was invited there, and once there
they were treated with great courtesy
and llberaiity. j. the yeas before the
! introduction Of horse cars and pubic
coDveyances. Il was the custom OF the
trade 10 take visitor from one factory
10 another 10y private conveyance.
every manufactures keeping horse
and buggy in readiness for such
errands. IL wa also the custom 90 iD-
! form every visitor s. 20 The extent Of
the furniture industries of the CITY. and
urge him TO see ali b,1Dre he left the
town. Then the local press was ire-
/ quently induced 10 tell the story OF The
importance of the furniture interest
and OF its rapid and substantial growth,
and as the furniture trade was the most
important INDUSTRY OF the clfy Il was an
easy matter for the local writer 10 wax

Seeing the notice in the city papers
that the competitive speaking of the
Washington Irving Society for the
honors next June, would take place
Friday evening, Dec. 4, at Stewart
Hall in the University grounds, the
writer wendell his way there, know
ing it would be literary feast, also
that he ould have the pleasure of
meeting the elite of ClaIksville so.
ciety, especially those interested in
her religious, social and educational
interests.
The candidates, nine in number,
all deserve honorable mention did
time and space permit. The writer
conceded with the judges in their
decision for the three selected to lead
their society next June, upward and
onward to fame.
The audience was made up only
of the young people of the city, yet
they were very appreciative.
1t is not out of place here to say a
word to the people of GAINESVILLE
concerning the institution planted
within their midst. 1t is IA
great privilege, and should be
fostered by all, regardless of
denominational feeling. The writer
was surprised to find so few OF
the class present, which are the best
representatives of our institution of
learning, viz: pastors, educators and
lawyers. These yonng men are to
be the leaders of our nation and rich
~ deserve all the encouragement the
citizens of GAINESVILLE can give them.

and met with Pythagoras Lodge.
The visitation was expected and
there was large turnout to meet

es of welcome by several members,
DR.. Smith was introduced to the
lodge and addressed it in a most i'm
structive and interesting manner for
an hour and half. The speaker re-
viewed the field of Odd Fellowship
and the great and benevolent work
it was doing. The three links and
the grand principles of Friendship,
Love and Truth were known and
had an influence and a home in
every civilized nation'on the globe.
AS an evidence of its grand work the
speaker said that $4,000 per day WAS
now being distributed by the order
for the relief of distress. In Tennes-
see'the work was progressing as else
where. There are now in the State
two orphan asylums, two colleges, a
male and female, and new lodges are
being formed all the time and old
ones strengthened and renewed.
The lodge here was one of the most
prosperous in the State, and the
speaker pointed out and discussed
ways and means to further increase
its prosperity and usefulness.
