THESE PLYMOUTH ROCKS
HAVE A RECORD

Some claim that Plymouth Rocks
are strictly N. g. when ii comes to
the egg producing qualifications, but
B. S. Jennings has information to
the contrary. Mrs. Jennings is the
possessor of 2S pullets that first saw
light last May, and since the 18th of
December these Plymouth Rock
members of the hen family have
contributed an average of a dozen
eggs a day for the use of the Jen-
nings household. Last week, from
February 18th to February 23rd
they donated 1877 eggs-an average
of about 20 per day, and the record
bids fair to be broken this week.
A query as to whether the Jennings
hen coop had been fitted with elec-
trio lights and the unsuspecting
fowls thereby inveigled into work
ing day and night brought mega
tive reply, so that the record is a
'bona fide" one. Can any one beat
il with Plymouth Rocks?

PROF. DAVID FRIDAY
LECTURED ON TAXATION"

Professor David Friday of the u.
of NJ, lectured at the M. p. church
last Friday evening on Taxation"
The church was well filed despite
the very unfavorable weather con-
ditions and Prof. Friday entertained
as well as instructed his audience
for an hour and a half by giving a
very clear and concise exposition of
taxation theories and practices,
handling a difficult subject in mas
terly way. The injustices of the
present system were touched upon
and remedies suggested. Efforts are
being continually made according to
Prof. Friday to bring the tax ques-
ton to a settlement that will mete
out justice to all, and will not make
il possible for one set of taxpayers
to pay third or quarter of what
another set pays, as is the case to-
day. The railroads were shown to
be paying a high rate of taxation
while the manufacturers were pay
ing very low rates. The city prop
erty and farm owners also pay a
high rate.
This lecture was furnished by the
U. of M. in the university extension
course Of that institution, and mas
much as the people of Clio and vi
cinity appreciate lectures of the
kind, few of these placed in Clio
next season will not be placed amiss.

" Different" comedian, and in every
particular he is different from every
other comedian on the stage today.
His past successes have been nu-
merous and in doctor De Luxe
he has equalled, if not surpassed all
of the other triumphs he has
known. Aside from the fact that
Mr.. Herr is highly entertaining, i'm
this production he is supported by
an unusually strong cast and ex-
ceptionally strong chorus.

new honors and added another por.
traiture to his splendid gallery of
comedy characterizations, is still the
cantakerous Dick Deadeye. Criti-
cal writers In every city visited
have declared that Mr.. Hopper has
given a value to the role hitherto
undiscovered. There is good music
for Deadeye to sing and Mr.. Hop
per sings 1t in a manner demon
strating the possession of fine
voice which many of his earlier sue
cesses denied him.
