HARRISON ROGERS.

Harrison Rogers, one OF the early
pioneers of Gratiot county, died at the
home of his daughter, Mrs. VIM. Thomp-
son, in Harbor Springs on Saturday of
last week. The remains were brought
here for burial on Monday. In the
spring of '94 the deceased fell while
fishing through the ice at Harbor
Springs and in doing so dislocated his
hip. Ever since he has gradually failed
in health until the end came to relieve
his sutferings The deceased was born
in Pen Yam, n. y, November ., 1915,
therefore if he had lived to reach his
next birthday he would have been 81
years old. He was married twice dur
ing his residence in the state of New
York and once after coming to Michigan.
Two children, one boy and one girl,
were born of his first marriage, both OF
whom are dead. One daughter, Mrs.
VIM. Thompson. the child by his second
wife, is left TO mourn her loss. Moving
into Michigan in the early days of the
state he first settled In Marshall and
later moved to Alma, nearly thirty
years ago, where he followed his voca-
tion as mechanic, until about five years
ago when he accompanied his daughter
and her husband TO their new home in
Harbor Springs where he has lived
since. Mr.. and Mrs. Thompson accom-
panied the remains here for burial and
were met at the train by host of SYM
pathizing friends who assisted them in
every manner possible. They remained
in Alma with friends until Thursday
before returning home.

Going to the Circus.
One of the Pleasures that is Dearest to
the Childish Heart.

After all the happiest people are those
whom some other people call "mere
children grown old" There is much in
the natural practices of children in seek
ing enjoyment which grown up persons
might well initiate. This carrying of
the cares that infest the day into the
night is not in any manner profitable.
Rather initiate the children who toss
their playthings aside and sink into a
healthful slumber that is undisturbed.
One OF the pleasures that is dearest to
the childish heart is going to circus
Whatever objections that may have
been urged against the circus upon
moral grounds is now entirely elimi
mated from all the responsible shows.
The prejudices of the religious classes
against the circus have been worn away
by the progress of thought which rejects
the theory that man was placed by his
Maker on earth for the sole purpose of
distressing the flesh. The religion of
hate and fear has very largely given
way TO the religion of love and hope.
And who can say that the world is not
all the better for it.
There is no sin in innocent pleasure.
Rather is the deprivation of innocent
rem. And by that same token it is ar
gued by some that it is sin TO keep the
children from seeing the circus parade
and the circus performance. Then there
is far more than mere pleasure for child
rem in visit to one of the modern cir
cuses of the first class for they always
have a menagerie in connection with
the circus performance. Were it not
70 hn ~ I'D he
menagerie there would be no practical
knowledge of natural history for child
rem, save those who live in the four or
five large cities of the country which
have geological gardens. 1t cannot be
maintained that such knowledge is of
value 1t is of value just as all the ele-
ments of education are valuable.
These reflections are caused by the ap-
preaching visit to this city of the Adam
Forepaugh and Sells Brothers oonsoli-
dated circuses, menageries, hippo.
dromes, etc. 1t is a first class, gilt.
edged concern all the way through, if
the newspaper reports do not exaggerate
its virtues 1t makes a speciality of en-
tertalning children and has an army of
clowns, ponies, dogs, monkeys, and
everything else that will appeal to their
fancy. II there is any parent in this
town who is so hard hearted that he will
not let his children see such show as
this big one is believed to be, he ought
TO be banished to some childless island
where the merry laughter OF little ones
is never heard and the birds refuse to
sing.
The date booked by Forepaugh and
Sells for Alma is August ).
