The TURNING PLANT
Is In Operation On Various Articles
Process Unique and
Rapid.

The Alden turning plant is in oper-
alton. Some machines have not yet
arrived, but enough are in to put the
plant in motion.
The News reporter visited the turn
ing plant one day this week and saw
the machines in operation on pail
handles, cover handles, pill boxes and
other articles. The machines are
mostly automatic and work with mar
velous rapidly.
On pail handles the pieces of wood
are sawed out square and cut up in
proper lengths. They are then fed
into chutes of the machines as rapidly
as thev can be handled. The machine
takes these pieces of wood and bores
holes through them. They are then
fed into another machine which turns
them in plain or ornamental patterns
with great rapidity. Two boys on
these machines can make forty thou
sand pail handles in day.
The pill box manufacture was still
more interesting. A square piece of
wood a couple of feet in length is
placed in the machine and the pulling
of a lever causes a hollow augur to
cut it round. A lathe knife comes up
and cuts portion of the stick smaller
for the cover to fit on. A lever is
pulled and the stick is bored out to the
desired depth and at the same instant
a lathe knife comes up and cuts the
box off from the stick. Then another
and other boxes are made from the
stick until the material is exhausted.
The cover is made in the same manner,
only with one less operation. These
boxes are made so rapidly that they
are cheaper and superior to paste
board boxes.
A lathe will make so many cover tops
in moment that one would wonder
where they are all going to.
Mr.. Alden expects further machinery
soon for the manufacture of fancy
work of larger kind. He has model
plant with plenty of power and is pre-
pared to prosecute large business.

CHRISTIAN CHURCH MEETING
At Grand Rapids Last Week was g
Success.

At the suggestion of members of the
Grand Rapids school board Mrs. Garst
gave, on Thurday morning talk in
the Lincoln school chapel, on Japan.
On the same morning she addressed
the training school students. In view
of the events for the past year in the
Orient, this talk was fine insight
into the characteristics of the victor
ious little nation of brown men who
have fought and forgiven SO well.
On the Thursday afternoon program
there were several fine numbers, and
the Thursday afternoon session was
about the best session of the conven-
ton. A talk by Mrs. Garst on the
work of the mission in Japan held the
listeners for half hour, and her ad-
dress was of the usual quality of Mrs.
Garst's talks, full of life and interest.
Her experiences alone enter into the
material she uses for her talks and this
was one of her finest. Rev. J. II.
Berkey of Munroe gave a good talk on
the work of the anti-saloon league, and
urged the members of the convention
to increase efforts along this line of
mission work. After four O'Clock a
memorial service was held in memory
of those who have died during the past
year, concluding with the great ordin-
ance of the church, the Lords supper
ceremony.
officers were elected as follows:
President, J. c. Thurman, Green Bay.
Vice Pres, Mrs. Tucker, milwaukee,
Cor. Sec., H. F. Rarstow, Ladysm tn.
Rec. Sec, H. Fisher, Evansville.
Treasurer, Earl Pease, Grand Rapids.

IMMIGRATION INCREASING

President Roosevelt is becoming
alarmed at the increased amount OF
immigration in this country from
the foreign world, and is going to
present the situation 10 Congress
at it's next session. He considers this
as one of the most serious problems
that now confronts the American
eople. AT the close Of the fiscal year,
which ends June 50, all previous rec
ordS OF immigration will have been
broken. 1t is reported that nearly
one million Steerage passengers have
arrived in this country during the
year looking for homes or for work.
The greatest number in any previous
year was in 1908, when s75, 046 people
were landed on these shores of free
dom. Continuing on this subject
Walter Wellman has the following in
the Chicago Record-Herald:
These are appalling figures. They
are the more appalling when they are
analysed and their Significance more
fully understood. They mean that
In Il single year there pours into the
country a multitude OF humble peo-
pie equal or greater than the popula-
ton OF any one of eighteen states in
the Union. 1t means that ii all
these newcomers. poor OF purse and
poorer yet in qualifications for cit
izenship, were to assemble in n
place they would alone make a city
exceeded in population by only New
York, Chicago and Philadelphia. 1t
means that to every eight men. Wom-
en- and children in the United States
at the beginning Of the year one is to
be added during the twelve-month
from the steerage Of the trans-At-
lantic st%ea az 1t means an in
crease of 20 per cent in the number
of lei in the United States whose
means of livelihood is such that they
are officially classed as "laborers'' in
the census report-and this 20 per
cent increase in a single year is
reached by reckoning that only about
One-half of the new arrivals will join
the banks OF workers at the bottom
of the industrial ladder.
In view of these amazing facts, it
is not surprising to Learn that Presi-
dent Roosevelt has upon his desk a
collection of reports bearing upon
immigration which he is carefully
studying with the intention of urg.
ing consideration Of the problem up
on Congress at an early day. In the
opinion of the President and his adj
visors, this is a problem with which
the national lawmakers and the AM
erican people must wrestle, and that
speedily.

We saw a pretty good cartoon the


We saw a pretty good cartoon the
other day depicting the difference of
patron.zing home business houses
and the mail order house. 1t repre-
sented an individual feeding a big
fat Y e grown hog while five little
pigs were endeavoring to get at the
trough. The little fellows we're
labeled schools, churches. home in
dustrles, and home Improvements.
The picture represents fully what
will happen to a community where
the trade is sem to the mail order
houses in the east. Instead of les
seuing the mail order houses ale
growing larger and only the other
day we read a six page prospectus of
a Dig cooperative store that is doing
an immense business in Chicago. A
community that follows this practice
to any extent will soon discover its
real condition when it is too late to
remedy it.

John Longstaff of the Huron!te, is
inclined to be pessimislic. In an ed
tiorial note the other day he meu-
toned the fact That President Ear
ling and President Hughitt were
both in South Dakota, like they were
twenty-five years ago, investigating
railroad building. John thought
the railroad presidents would do the
same now that they did then-fold
their tents and 90 back east without
extending. John ought to know by
this time that conditions are vastly
different and that the roads ale

Scarcely fifty miles from Boston, iso-

The exact date when the old house
was built is unknown, but it is Il pro

texture. for before the Revolution a
band of counterfeiters occupied it and
