formed the republican party. The
book contains the official proceedings
of the celebration, history Of the
republican party and portraits of
many eminent citizens who took part
in that great historic event OF so years
ago. 1t also contains engravings OF
the chief participants In the celebrat-
ion, of many leading citizens OF Mich

a valuable historical possession for
those who are to receive IT.

the year 1872. His early life was spent
on farm, and after receiving the
commsn country school education he
attended the West Sunbary Academy
and afterward took course in the
Grove City College. He began teach
ing school when only 1S years OF age.
He was interested in several oil wells
and :.orked in that district during the
summer and taught school in winter.
The oil wells panned out dry and he
lost consi derable in the deal. In
March, 1901 he came to Michigan to
visit a couple OF brothers who had
located in this state several years
previous. and liking the climate, he
concluded to stay. His first summer
here was devoted to working for the
East Jordan Lumber Co. Shortly
afterward his brother, who had the
Superintendency Of the South Arm
Schools, resigned his position to return
to PENNSYLVANIA, and j. II. was ap-
pointed as successor. During the years
that he has had charge of this schOC
il has steadily developed until now it
is one OF the best Of its kind In the
