The following poem was written by
NJ. J. Carley of Royal Oak, Michigan,
who was visitor to Brooksville dur
ing the summer of a year ago, and
was much pleased with the place and
its people. This article has been

gus.
There's a land of sweet enchantment,
Like a gem set in the sea,
Decked with flowers from gulf to
ocean,
Charmed by feathered minstrelsy.
Myriad lakes, of crystal beauty,
Dot the landscape far and wide;
And her rivers gently flowing
Bear US on to meet the tide.
OF the boundless, swelling ocean,
And the grandeurs of the sea,
With its message of the ages,
And its hidden mystery.
There the winds but come in Zephyrs,
From the gulf or from the sea,
Laden with the breath of blossoms
And the music of the bee.
And the hooking bird is singing,
Where the orange blossoms grow ;
And there is no frigid winter,
With it's sleet, and ice, and snow.
Where the days are bright and sunny,
And the nights are cool and sweet;
And the busy, care-worn traveller
Seeks her out with eager feet.
That he may renew his vigor,
Drained by years of constant strife
In the money-maddened northland,
Where they take each others life
Not with sword, or leaden missile
From the deadly pocket gun.
But by punching to the limit
From the morn till setting sun.
Oh. my heart has grown aweary
With our hustle and our strife,
In this pushing one another
In a race that is not life"
1t is only an existence"
Full Of harrassment and care,
Till the heart-strings almost sever
And the soul is in despair.
Yes, I'm longing for the southland
The peninsular by the sea-
With it's luscious fruits, so tempting,
And it's zephyrs call to me.
There the "Fount of Youth" is hidden
To those blinded by their care;
But to those whose eyes are open,
Flowing freely everywhere.
For there's time" enough for labor,
And there's time" for pleasure, too.
And there's no need Of high pressure
In the things we have to do.
And I think I'll have to answer
To this call that comes to me
Go and join the happy dwellers,
in the southland by the sea.

Mr.. Jefferson Jackson, of the Ma

and Mr.. George H. Fits of Whitman
tic, Conn, who have been spending
some time at st. Petersburg, thought
they would stop over here for a few
hours, and found conditions so much
more pleasant and attractive than
they had any reason to believe, that
they are spending several days, and
may visit us again next season. Mr..
Fits was very well acquainted with
the late D. E. Potter, who formerly
owned an orange grove here, and

AS TO TARIFF REDUCTION

The overwhelming vote against
President Taft in the last presidential
election was a very strong indication
that the country desired a downward
revision of the tariff.
The democratic party, using the
platform adopted at Baltimore as its
mouthpiece and megaphone, was can
did and explicit enough to say:
We recognize that our system OF
tariff taxation is intimately connected
with the business Of the country, and
we favor the ultimate attainment OF
the principles We advocate by legisla-
ton that will not injure or destroy
legitimate industry"
The party does not desire to cripple
or destroy any legitimate industry,
whether large or small. 1t wants the
taxes to be cautiously and gradually
lowered that none of these industries
viii feel the shock.
The income tax recently adopted
by the requisite number of states will
largely help the custom houses in the
volume OF wealth poured into the
treasury, and will make it possible
to lower the tariff to a much lower
level than was thought of when the

that the federal government
the constitution has no right OF pow
er to impose or collect tariff duties
except for the purpose of revenue
That is uneQuivocal and to the
point Not for protection per se not
for an incidental protection, but solely
and only is it in favor of levying taxes
for raising revenues for the support
of the government, for the govern
ment must live, and can only live
through the channels of taxation.

ADMINISTRATION
NOT IMPRESSED
PROTEST OF BANKERS AT CHI
cAGo MEETING WILL NOT
BE HEEDED.
OBJECTIONS HAVE ALREADY
BEEN CONSIDERED.
Charge Is Made That Conference Was
Dominated BY Few and Did
Not Represent Rank and
File Of Bankers.

The administration Is not impressed
with the resolutions adopted by the
meeting of bankers at Chicago.
That meeting, as the administration
views 1t, was dominated by few big
bankers. Tips are coming to officials
of the government not to heed the ac-
tion of the meeting; that the rank
and file Of the bankers of the United
States are with the bill on currency
reform the administration is promot-
ing and not with the coterie dominat-
Ing the Chicago meeting. These in
dorsements are not addressed direct
ly to the officers of the government
but come to 1t from such variety
Of sources that members of the ad-
ministration feel they must be sim
cere.
They also feel that the desire Of
those controlling the Chicago meeting
was to take out OF the bill all its es
tablished features. There Is the best
authority for stating that unless those
features can be retained, and unless
the control of new financial system
can be kept In the government there
will be no currency legislation.
1t is said that all of the objections
mentioned by the bankers had been
carefully considered previously.

CLIO CONDENSED
MILK COMPANY

The Clio Condensed Milk Company is
the latest factory to be added to Clio.
Representatives Of a condensry were
in our village Friday and Saturday.
They were 2. w. Tinker of Chicago,
and Boyd w. Doyle superintendent of
the Brighton, Mich. condenser. After
looking over the location, the site, and
the country tributary to Clio, they de-
cided to locate here. Accordingly the
articles of agreement made and signed
by these gentlemen for the company
and by the officers of the Clio Board Of
Trade. Articles of incorporation will be
filed with the state this week and the
company is capitalized at $50, 900. The
concern will be known as the Clio Con-
densed Milk Co. They will make three
distinct preparations of milk, and will
soon add to their factory an addition
where the cans will also be manufac-
tured. 1t is proposed to build $35, 900
factory. Their engineer will be here
next week to decide on which site is
the most suitable of the two secured in
Clio, and the plans will be made and
building operations started within fifteen
days. Mr.. Boyd w. Doyle has resigned
his position with the Brighton factory
to take active charge of the Clio con-
Germ.

Hoo choIora Menace In State.

According to statements of Doctors
Giltner and Holman, OF the Michigan
Agricultural college, there Is serious
epidemic Of hog cholera In the state.
DR.. Giltner Is former state veter.
marian and DR.. Holman Is associated
with the meteorological department
of the college At the last count made
by DR.. Giltner 21 counties were at
fected, Genesee. Barry, Eaton. ST.

That the disease is killing off hogs
by hundreds and that the entire state
is threatened by the epidemic, Is the
belief of DR.. Giltner
DR.. Giltner states the college Ia
making a hog cholera serum which
will protect swine from the disease
II they are inoculated with 1t. "The
college has been In the business OF
producing this serum for a good many
years, and we send it to a farmer
just as soon as he asks for It, If the
farmer will only send for serum and
administer II wisely they can protect
their uninfected hogs" says DR.. Gilt
ner. Thefserum will not cure diseased
animals, but acts only as preventa-
tive.

Qualify For Business

The marvellous growth of the city of
Detroit has created steady demand for
well qualified young people to do book
keeping and stenographic work. The
vast increase in the business transacted
opens up great field for young men and
young women. To ambitious, Industrious
young people, the thorough training
given at the Business Institute, that
city, provides the steps for successful
careers in the business Offices of Detroit.
The Business Institute affords training
in the use of the latest machines and de-
vices found in up-to-date offices. The
adding machine, the rotary mimeograph,
the planotype, the billing machine, etc.,
all receive proper attention, so that the
student is familiar with the best method
of operating these machines. The pro-
ficiency of. the students may be judged
when it mentioned that it has over 1000
employment calls year. The Business
Institute is centrally located on Cass
avenue just north of Michigan, only
about one fourth of mile from the City
Hail. 1t has large airy rooms, sixteen
foot ceilings and is open to the breeze
and light on all four sides. There are
sanitary drinking fountains on each floor
and electric fans in the main rooms. The
typewriting rooms contain $50 machines,
and the entire equipment is of the very
best. A free employment bureau is MAIN
tanned. Visitors are always welcome,
and those who cannot call in person will
do will to examine the catalogue of the
Institute, which WILDE sent free by mail.

Cooperation

Clio, Mich, Aug. 27, 1918.
To Patrons of the Clio Public School,
The beginning of the school year is at
hand. Children of school age will soon be
out from the direct control of their par
ents great portion of the time and the
teachers will resume the grave RESPONSE
bility of directing their lives through a
very critical stage of their existence.
We teachers realize the immensity of
task and the uselessness of our efforts
without the support of the parents.
Fully appreciating the support the
school has received in the past from the
community, it is for a more cordial and
intimate cooperation of the patrons and
teachers that | ask.
1t will be the constant aim to make
school serve the pupil to the fullest in
every sense. To this end, we need and
expect to receive your continued sup
port. Please see that your children are
on time every morning and that they
are not absent unless it is absolutely
necessary A child who is made late by
having to buy penny yeast cake is not
going to have very high idea of the
Importance of school. A perfect record
of attendance AID pnnctuality through
the whole twelve grades a. not an i'm
possibility. Children cannot do the FORK
of school and advance as you wish them
to without the necessary tools. See that
they have paper and pencil and the
books that they need. Show them that
youtal1 an active interest in their school
work, but do not work their problems
for them. Encourage them TO read the
best literature and in later life they will
find they have storehouses of expert
ence. Occasionally visit the school and
learn first hand what is being done there.
The home should be the best place for
young people to spend their evenings
and in fact the pupils in the upper grades
and high school should spend at least
two hours every night in undisturbed
study at home.
If the parents will kindly observe these
thingswe can safely predict very sue
cessful year for their children and next
June when promotions are made, there
will be but few unable to pass on to the
next grade. Let us all work together and
make this the most profitable year yet
in the lives of the childrsn.
Yours for cooperation,
j. G. Chapel.

Hog Cholera in Genesee

Hog cholera, the dreaded stock disease
has been discovered in this county, This
is very serious disease ON account of
the fact that it is extremely contagious
and that it always takes the lives of a
great number of animals in verv short
time when an epidemic gets started in
a cummunity.
City Dairy and Food Inspector Friar
of Flint discovered there were hogs in
fected with the disease on the Taylor
farm near Montrose. He went to the
farm Monday and investigated. 1t was
found that nine animals of herd of 13
had died of the disease and the other
four had been killed by the owner in
order to save the meat for sale. 1t was
alleged that these four dressed hogs
were sold in Flint, but the Inspector
found this to be very improbable.
The state livestock sanitary commits
sion has been notified and has started
an investigation. Ward H. Parker, of
the Genesee county crop improvement
association, went to the vicinity where
the disease was discovered, today and
while there will study the conditions
with view of determining the best
means to be taken to prevent its spread.

''The snow will lie thick on the

Thaw's leading attorney.
r. Mr.. Stone hinted that test of the
constitutionality of the Canadian i'm
migration laws will be made on be-
half Of Thaw and that the treaty be-
tween the United States and Canada
will play large part In this.
"Under the immigration laws, Ca
madam subject can appeal to the
courts, If he Is held as one who has
entered Canada by stealth" explained
Thaw's attorney. "An American citi
zen, however, Is allowed no such ap-
peal. This, despite the fact that the
United States treaty with Canada
guarantees the same treatment and
the same rights to American citizens
as to British subjects"
To make a test OF the constitution.
