Joe's daughter, staying on and ON

Anita day by day further and further

he was, like all really good people,

WILL PUT LOTS
ON MARKET
R. O. Wipperman Will Begin
Great Sale Monday.

r. o. Wipperman announces in
another column of this issue of the
REPORTER, the placing of block'of
forty desirably located lots upon the
market. 1t will be noticed from that
announcement that this property is
the Gardner property located i'm
mediately off of Third street south,
and south and west of the residence
of J. S. Thompson.
The proposition offered in the an
nouncement !. of this sale of Mr..
Wipperman's, places the residence
lots offered in the reach of every man
in this city, and especially does it
offer an excellent investment for
clerks, or any one else desiring sure
method of saving money. The gen.
erous offer should be carefully looked
into by all, and an early action will
be necessary, as there is already
manifest a desire to ''gobble up'' this
property as soon as the sale is begun.
Grand Rapids is fast becom-
ing a city of home owners. Several
years ago there were a plenty OF
houses for rent, but at the present
time the only man who is sure of a
place to live for any length of time is
the man who owns his own property
Each year sees more and more of the
former renters entering the ranks Of
the property owners, and it is this
very act that adds stability to the
city.

which place he will locate, but hopes
to do so in the near future Mr.. and
Mrs. Williams have many old time
friends in Grand Rapids, and Wood
County, who were sorry when they left
this city for Milwaukee. They all now
hope that they will decide to come
back to their old friends and acquain-
tances. We join with their friends in
the hope that when they decide it will
be in favor of the old home and town
folks. 1t is not all of this life to
make money. The associations
formed by long acquaintance is more
valuable than money. If they decide
on Grand Rapids, we know that the
people here will give them cordial
greeting

A visit to the Forest Hill and Cal
vary cemeteries in this city will con-
vince the visitor of the many valuable
and beautiful improvements being
made in these cemeteries. Owners of
lots, or those who have friends buried in
either one OF these cemeteries, GER
tainly should not neglect to contribute
their.annual fee of one dollar, in aiding
this excellent work of identifying the
cemetery. 1t is truly a pleasure to
wander around and observe the beauti
fully kept lawns, schrubbery and trees
properly kept and cared for, by the
association, as a result of the contru-
buttons by the lot owners. There are
some things that the association are
not privileged TO perform, because the
annual fee will not warrant it, but
there are some monuments and foot
markers, that should be attended to
by the lot owners. They are out of
plumb and look badly on that account.

REV. NORTON PRESIDENT
Northern Collegiate Institute
Secures Valuable and Well
Known Man.

The friends of this institution will
be pleased to learn that it has Sc
cured for its president the Rev. r. B.
Norton, of Las Animas, Colorado.
He has resigned to accept this posi-
ton from a pleasant and important
pastorate, leaving very devoted people
who were most reluctant to give him
up, but after the Importance of this
new and rapidly growing institution
which is to mean so much to the
northwest was put before them, they
finally concurred with Mr.. Norton in
his request to be released.
The Rev. Norton has already visited
this institution and learned with in
terest its rapid growth, present stand
ing and bright outlook for the future.
He sees large possibilities for this
school, being as it is located in a CEN
trail and needy part of our country.
He will arrive in Sherry the first week
in June and will be welcomed back to
his native state by his host of friends.
He is not only well known and highly
esteemed by the Synod of Wisconsin
of which he was member, but by all
who know him.
He comes well equipped to take up
this new work, having received part
of his education and later been prin-
cipal of a similar institution, for
several years, to that of the Northwest
Collegiate Institute, with great sue
cess. When his name was suggested
for president at recent meeting of
the trustees of the institution by its
General Manager, Rev. W. J. Agnew,
everyone present voted enthusiastic
ally for him. Mr.. Norton and Mr..
Agnew have been close friends for
many years and look forward with
pleasure to being associated together
in this great work for young people.
The Inauguration of Rev. Norton
will take place on the N. G. l. Com
mencement day June II at 2 p. m.
On Mr.. Nortons recent visit to
Sherry he won the hearts of students,
teachers and everyone else in the
community. The young people were
frequently heard to say ''we want Mr..
Norton for president. These re-
marks from students are suggestive
of the welcome he will receive and
to boom such man as president
will be a boom to the institution
The school at Sherry may well con
graduate itself in having secured
the Rev. Norton as we have learned
on good authority he had a pressing
invitation to another institution of
learning in Wisconsin,
