LECTURE COURSE
Fist Number Occurs Thurs
day evening NOvem-
Der 1 bird.

Everyone in Paw Paw is anXously
awaiting the opening OF the Fellowship
lecture course, which occurs this year
on Thursday evening, November 3. The
lecture will begin at S:l5 p. M Mr..
G. h. w. Griffith, reader of Shakespeare,
has the opening number. Mr.. Griffith
is reader of exceptional ability and the
patrons of the lecture course are artici-
pating a rare treat. Following is what
the Shakespeare club of Chicago has to
say of Mr. Griffith:
"Mr Griffith holds that it is the Read
er's art to illumine literature; to popu-
larze what is good in modern writing,
and to revive the priceless treasures OF
the classics. Only a few of Shakespeare's
plays are presented on the stage, but
the reader makes it possible for US to
realize dramatically all of his mighty
literary creations.
"Mr. Griffith's artistic renditions are
based upon careful and original literary
interpretations. He is the only reader
in the world who reads every season all
OF Shakespeare's plays in public This
worthy undertaking is both unique and
prodigious. These plays are so abbre-
waited that nothing offensive to modern
taste remains, and yet so artistica lily ef-
fected that no word is changed. Mr.. Grit
fifth insists that true art is its own best
Interpretation, and therefore substitutes
suggestive expresslors for the usual
pedantic explanations. He reads with
great intelligence, colors bis roles with
fine emotional shading and dIsting guishes
them with delicate yet distinct sugges-
tions of character. He possesses mar
velously flexible voice, an expressive
face, strong personal magn tism, and un-
bounded sympathy which harmonlzes all
be reads. The distinctive characteristic
of his reading is a noble aim to present
these life pictures in such a way as to
show the logic of events and the results
of action, for the purpose OF broadening
the mind and ennobling human con-
duct.

We CORRECT THE ERROR
Roy Mosier Won Prize at Paw Paw
Fair for Best Display of
Corn.

The True Northerner stated last week
in its report of premiums won at the
fair, that the prize for the best bushel
of corn went to Roy Mosier and j. O..
Boess. This was an error Roy Mosier
won the prize and is entitled to all
credit for the magnificent display of
corn which won the blue ribbon Mr.
Boess is a resident OF Mattawan. He is
practically a new conner, but in the short
time he has resided here he has made
many friends. He does not shine par
tcularly as grower of blue ribbon corn,
but is well versed in the windmill bus
mess.
The mix-up 10 The True Northerners g
report was caused by some friend think
ing to do him favor by writing his
name on the card with Mr.. Mosier as
grower OF the corn.

PREPARATION FOR
BIG LAND SHOW
Counties of Alleean, Berrien and Van
Buren, Will Make Good Showing
at ChicaSo

Preliminary preparations for the big
land show in Chicago from November
l9 to December are progressing rap
idly. w. G. Wildey, member of the COM
mittee having the show in charge, states
that the exhibits OF fruit, vegetables
grains, hay, ETC. are coming n and that
the counties Of Van Buren, Allegan and
Berrien will certainly make creditable
showing. The big show will be held 10
the Colosseum building and the above
mentioned counties have space reserved
% by 30 feet.
Fifty thousand cIpie of fine book
are now on the press and will be dis
tributed during the show. The commit
tee state that little more money is
needed to defray the expense of the dis
play. Citizens in general have contrib.
uted literally and it is hoped that some
who have not vet subscribed will do 80,
so that there may be ample fun Is with
which to make the showing these coun-
ties are entitled to.

Paw Paws electric fire alarm sy stem
has at last been installed After much
talk and long delays the fire alarm boxes
have all been put in place and the
system is completed IC is hoped that it
may be long time before it will be
necessary to put the system to a real
test, but the department is better pre-
pared than ever to cope with fire any
where in the resident part of the village.
Paw Paw has long had the reputation of
having one of the best volunteer fire de-
partments in the state. The only criti-
csm that it has ever had, has been that
some times fire in the resident portion
of the village, has gotten under good
headway before the department arrived
upon the scene. This, of course, was no
fault of the department but rather a
fault Of the alarm system. This fault
has now been eliminated, and there
should be no delays in the future in
turning in an alarm, or the arrival of
the fire department on the scene of fire.
The public is urged to become familiar
with the location of the various alarm
boxes. 10 case OF fire go to the nearest
box, break the glass dial, which turns on
the alarm.
Following are the locations of the niue
alarm boxes:
No. l. Engine house.
No. 2. Corner Main and Niles streets.
! Nc 2 Ca tue point" at school house
park.
No. A. Corner Kalamazoo and Berrien
streets.
No. 3 On Kalamazoo street at T. p.

No. 6 Corner Lagrave and Pine
streets.
No. Z. Corner st. Joseph and Brown
streets.
No. s. Corner Main and Hazen streets.

CIRCUIT COURT
STILL IN SESSION
Jury Appeared Monday
and Contested Cases
Were Begun.
LIQUOR CASE WAS PASSED
Case of People Wis. George Hopkins
Disposed of. Civil Cases Now
Being Tried.

The jury came last Monday for duty
on the contested cases. 1t was expected
that the criminal case of the People vs..
John Bosquet would be the first on the
jury calendar, but the case was passed
for the present and it is not known what
disposition may be made of the same.
Bosquet is South Haven man charged
with violation of the local option law.
1t Is thought by some that he may plead
guilty to the charge.
The first case to be tried was a civil
suit, entitled Emory Graves VS.. S. M.
rrowbridge. The substance OF the case
is as follows: The plaintiff, Emory
Graves is hig hway commissioner OF Ge.
ueva township. He built bridge near
the Trowbridge mills in said township,
it being the contention of the township
that Mr.. Trowbridge should bear the ex-
pense of the construction of the bridge,
and brought suit to collect the same.
The case was tried during the Apri
term, when a judgment of 800 was rem
dered the township. On motion, both
parties to the suit, however, new trial
was ordered. The case has consumed a
greater part of the week and the result
will be announced next week. Attorneys
Anderson and Warner represent the
township and L. j. Cavanaugh the de-
fendant.
The case OF the People vs. George
Hopkins, which was an appeal from JUS
tice court, was disposed of as follows:
Hopkins plead guilty to the charge of
using obscene language 10 the presence
of ladies. He was sentenced to the De-
troit House of Correction for period Of
60 days. The sentence was vacated by
an order for parole upon the condition
that Hopkins refrain from drinking in
toxcatng liquors, and further that
said respondent report to the courts
on the first day of each term of.
court accompanied by his bondsment
for a period Of one yeur, and furthSS
that respondent pay to the clerk of the
circuit court the sum of $500, the costs
! in said case. In case of the violation of
any part of said order of parole, the SEN
tence above referred to shall be IN full
force and effect.

Eli Strong Loses that Amount Last
Saturday Evening at a Local
Store. No Clue.

Eli Strong lost quite sum of money
last Saturday. On Saturday evening he
paid some bills at local store, and
placed the remaining bills in a note
book. He then went to the moving
picture show. While there he missed
the book, but thought he had left it on
the desk where be settled the account,
and did not give the matter another
thought until Monday morning, when
he went after the book and money. IG
had not been seen in the store however
but it appears that the book was found
With some individual checks. on the
streets SundaJ, but the bills were gone,
1t is probable that Mr.. Strong dropped
the book, and it was picked up by some
dishonest person, who took the money
and threw the book away. There was
about $50 in the book.

LOOMS Theater Combined
Forces.

The Gem Theater aud the Loomis
Theater have combined. Competition in
the moving picture business IN a town

and the proprietors of these rival institu'
tions have combined their forces. The
shows will be conducted as formerly in
the Grimes building, which was rented
several weeks ago by John Vandefifer of
Kalamazoo for the Gem Theater. This
building gives more room than the
Loomis building, and the new firm are
now nicely fixed for the accommodation of
their patrons.
