of the children. Under no circum-
stances should cotton batting be used
by amateur Santa Clauses for hair and
whiskers, as non infammable substi-
tutes can essily be had and the risk of
serious or fatal burning is excessive.
If candles are used, children should not
be allowed to light them while their
parents are not present, as they often
set fire to their clothing Special care
should be taken not to leave matches
lying about, as they are specially dan
gerous at Christmas time. The holi-
days, of all periods of the year, should
be freed from the danger of terrible
calamities, which is always present I'M
less reasonable precautions are taken in
the matter Of holiday decorations and
festivities.

GETS GOOD
POSITION

1t will be pleasing news to the
many friends of Alan Gibbs whose
home is in Deerfield, to learn that
he has just completed a course in
the Grand Rapids Business College
and accepted position with the First
National Bank of that city. Alan fin
ished the business course in a little
less than four months. Two other
students, young ladies', from the sam
school also took positions last week,
one going to Necedah as stenograph,
er and cashier in Greenbergs large
department store, and the other as
stenographer for the Grand Rapids
Milling Co. The Grand Rapids Busi-
ness College seems to be growing in
popularity and patronage every year.
Fifty-seven students have enrolled
so far this year We understand that
the institution has more calls for con
petent, reliable young men and women
for office help than it can fill. Any
thing concerning this school is of spe
ciaI intere st to News readers as it
was founded by Earl Hayward, Har
cock boy, whose industry and perse-
yerance are bringing it success.-Har

en- under the auspices of the Fedora
tion Of Women's clubs is set for Mar

take part:
Plaintiff-Miss Edith Weeks
Judge-Mr Arthur Mulroy.
Defendant-Dr. BIanchar.
Counsel for PIafntiff-Mr. c. A.

Court Usher-Mr. Fred Stamm.
The music is under the direction
Of Mrs. James Wright and Mrs. Guy
Nash will preside at the piano, as
sisted by several members of the
Grand Rapids band.
The first part of the program will
consist of a Violin Solo by Miss Ell
len MacKinnon, several short sketches
by Miss Sherman teacher of Drama
tic Art, in our High school and a
dialogue between Miss Sherman and
Mr. Pattie. Much interest is being
manifested in the production of''Trial
by Jury" which is an opera in one
act by Gilbert and Sullivan, the au-
thor and composer of Pinafore, the
Mikado. The music is of the best
and the libretto bright and witty and
considering the high order of talent
participating, the production should
be one of the best local entertain
ments ever given in our city.

This office is in receipt of a let
ter from Mrs. Zeigler at Los Angeles
Cal, dated Feb. 20, 1911, in which
she gives us the following informa-
ton of the injury to her sister, Mrs.
Arms who formerly resided in this
city. She says on the 10th of Feb
ruary, Mrs. Arms was badly injured
in a street car collision. The car
she was in was derailed and badly
smashed up. Mrs. Arms was thrown
across the car with such force that
she was very badly injured. Her head
was badly bruised, her face badly cut
and a partial dislocation of the jaw
Her hip was sprained and other parts
Of her body badly bruised. She was
Immediately taken to the hospital
where her wounds were dressed and
cared for, after which she was taken
to her mothers home where she is
still unable to leave her bed. Her in
juries have been quite serious and
very painful, but she is now recov-
ering nicely but slowly. She will be
very glad to hear from any of her
old friends IN Grand Rapids, as she
is a stranger here, among strangers,
excepting her immediate relatives,
Her address is as follows: Mrs. F.

4 TRIP ABROAD
WITH PROF.
JACKSON

Prof. Jackson gave to the Forest
ers at their hall Wednesday evenins
a very interesting and instructive ac
count of his European trip.
His discourse was not in the form
Of stilted grafton or formal lee
ture; he put himself at once in close
touch with his audience by using tha
easy, natural, conversational man
ner that one might use for talking
to few friends; and altho he talk
ed nearly two hours, his audience
would have gladly stayed two hours
longer.
The most unique feature about Pro
Jackson's discourse is the way in
which he takes his audience at once
into his confidence, and his account
OF his trip reveals the fact that he
did the same thing in his intercourse
with the various nationalities that
he met, and he allowed no barrier of
difference in language or social de-
gree to stand between him and those
he desired to become acquainted
with. He placed himself in sympathy
with all and seemed to have secured
from all a sympathic confidence. He
looked to find mems hearts and when
he had discovered that, he found that
he could brush aside every distinction
Of social degree, nationality, or creed
for at heart all men are brothers.
Like the industrious bee that goes
out to gather honey, he seemed to
have found this nectar in every flow
er he met with and one is led to sus-
pect that the kindly treatment that
he received from the foreigners he
met with on his trip. was but a re-
Election of his own good will and O.
pen, easy frankness.
If he had gone abroad to criticise
or censure and sneer at the oddities
of these foreigners, they would pro-
badly have read his heart and accord
ed him a very different treatment.
The whole feature of his discourse
is very elevating and productive of
a broad charity At the close of his
discourse the audience gave him many
of gratitude and good
will.

Grades to which flower seeds will be

Seventh inclusive. Each child is to
care for his own little plot Of flow

flowers and vegetables as he sees fit.
The flowers can be sent either di-

Hospital or sold, and so make profi-
table the work put into these gar

We expect to have a flower and
vegetable exhibit in the fall and priz-

Schools in all parts of the coun-
try are doing this work, either in a
large or small way and very enthusi-
astic reports are given of the results.
We are beginning this phase of the
Junior Civic League work in a small
way but We hope the work will en-
large each year and that the children
will learn to observe and love the law
OF nature, kindness to animals, re-
spect for others, courage and patriot
ism, and the problem attaining to civ
&c work now, will have vanished, when
our children attain to womanhood
and manhood.
