who spend three or four months each
summer at the lakes. Lakes Sally and
Melissa are situated six miles south
west of the city of Detroit and can be
reached by either launch or auto
mobile. They are connected to Detroit
lake by locks which are open to all
boats. The different resorts have
their autos meet each train at Detroit
so that reaching the lakes is an easy
matter The principal resort at Sally
and Melissa is the Hotel Shoreham
This fine summer resort is owned by
Detroit people and is managed by
George ziebell, an expert chef with
years of experience. They have a
pavilion 70x9O feet where each night
dances are held. This meets with the
! approval of the young people who ap-

preciate the Hotel Shoreham's efforts
to make everything pleasant for them.
The hotel also has complete line of
groceries, bakery goods and con-
fectionery in stock for the convenience
of the cottagers. This firm has about
forty cottages which it rents by the
week, month or season. Anyone desir-
Lakes Melissa or Sally will find Mr..
Ziebell an excellent gentleman to
transact business with.
About ten miles to the south of
Melissa and Sally on the same string
Of lakes will be found Ashelman
Bros resort, Fair Hills and John K.
Vests fine resort, Pelican Inn. These
two are q couple of the finest sum-
mer resorts in all the Detroit territory,
Fair Hills has it's own electric light
and gas plant, water and sewer
systems. The Ashelman Bros. have
put about $4,000 into this resort and
they undoubtedly have the best in this
locality. They are Fargo men and are
greatly patronized by it's citizens.
Pelican Inn is fine place to go fishing
and to spend an enjoyable vacation.
Mr.. West, has active management
himself and this assures the public
of the best in it's line.
If one does not desire to go out to
the different resorts to the south of
Detroit especially if only spending one
day in the city, they have a couple
of good places to stay, right at the
foot of Detroit's main street-Wash-
ington avenue. One may register at
the Minnesota hotel, and walk to the
lake which Is about one mile away or
they can go direct to the lake and
stop at the Lake Side or Park hotels.
August Geuthling, one of Detroit's
Oldest citizens is active manager Of
Lake Side and he has been attending
to the cares of the public for a great
many years. The past two seasons ne
retired from the summer resort busi-
ness but the public demanded his re-
turn and this year he will have one OF
the best resorts on the string of lakes.
Mrs. Geuthlng is a fine cook and the
people stay there by the day. week or
month. A fine boat and launch livery
is run in connection with the hotel,
SO that one does not have to go far
for boat or bate. You will find fishing
good on Detroit lake, and Mr.. Geuth-
ling will be glad to direct you to the
best fishing spots.
Directly at the end of Washington
avenue will be found the Park hotel,
run and managed by F. Weiss and his
two sons They built this fine resort
four years ago and can therefore take
care Of the wants of the most fastidi-
Gus person. Their place is so situat-
ed that a full view Of the Detroit
lakes can be had from the front
porch. They also have a boat and
launch livery in connection and have
some Of the fastest boats on Detroit
lake. They are getting more and more
Fargoans to stop at their resort each
year and their best boast is that the
old customers return each season.
Next week the facilities of the many
other Detroit resorts will be discuss
ed on this page.

The lake season opens at Detroit,
one week from next Sunday, June 1.
There is certain to be a great moving
of families to that fair city,. and al
ready the different resorts are taking
on a lively aspect. A great many
people have been at the lakes for the
past few weeks to get the good fish
ing that prevails in the: many lakes
around Detroit. The fishing season
opened May 1 but the weather was
cold and disagreeable Fishing is now
excellent. Each Sunday the lake
visitors return from their quest with
the laws limit of fish. =
At Sally and Melissa lakes will pe
found about 16S cottages in one group.
These belong, most generally, to Far

RICH FARMER WHO
FORMERLY WAS A POOR
GOVERNMENT CLERK

In the current issue of Farm and
Fireside, Judson C.sWelliver, Washing
ton correspondent OF that publication,
writes most entertainingly the story Of
the Hon. s.. T.. Lupton, Virginian, who
on $500 q year supported a wife and
two children while he held job In the
treasury department at Washington.
Lupton was ambitious and thrifty and
all the time kept studying his hobby,
which was-the cultivation of apples.
Finally, ellow-worker in the treas
ury department who had private for
tune, became impressed with the fact
that Lupton was energetic and man
of good Ideas, SO he proposed to Lup-
ton to back him in an apple venture.
This venture has come out successful
the treasury department until his orr
chard grew and was ready to yield its
first crop. Just before he left the
treasury department, Welliyer, the au-
thor, says that he called on Lupton and
asked him how he was getting on.
Welliver proceeds with his story as
follows: Is
He didn't say a word, but pulled
out q drawer, took the top letter and
handed it to me. 1T was from New
York commission house and contained
a draft for $l4,2S5, with notice OF their
acceptance of his proposition to take
the apples on the trees and pick them!
Whew!' i whistled; going to get a
new suitg
He pulled out another drawer /
wanted to show you this one, too,
ahead of anybody else, handing me
another letter. Tt was his resignation
of his government job.
sLupton went down to live on the
farm, Bought more land, planted more
trees, and now has 400 acres in apples.
Els place is rated worth about 5000, 900,
but isn't for sale.
Don I make the mistake Of assuming
that after all, Lupton got on because
him. That friend observed that Lup-
ton was living in the city on SIS a
month, supporting a family and every
month paying off a. little OF the old
ford to take chance ON that sort of
citizen, and he didn't make mistake.
There are a great many more ways to
stake men like Lupton than there are

CHICAGO COULD BREATH
WERE PUT DOWN-ONE
While everybody is talking
about what a crowded and pack
ed city of human sardines Chi
cago is, along comes Frederick
Rex, assistant city statiscian, and
shows chart and set of figures
proving that nearly one-third of
all the land inside the city limits
of Chicago is vacant.
The exact figure is 80 per cent.
This does not mean streets or al
leys or parks, Fairgrounds or
grave-yardS. 1t means vacant,
not used, held by respectable
business men and spectators and
lard sharks.
Rex has got the chart ready to
be used at the City Club housing
exhibition, to open March Is at
the. club. Here are the figures on
how Chicago land is used and
what for:
Streets and alleys, Az square
miles, or 21.19 per cent of all land
in the city limits.
Dwellings, 400 square miles,
or 24.22 per cent.
Vacant, 1884 square miles, or
80 per cent.
Factories, 1911 square miles,
or III per cent.
Steam railways, 1919 square
miles, or 3.38 per cent.

etc., I03 square miles, or 3.62 per
cent. .--

The big surprise for many Peo-L
pie in these figures is that nearly
one-third of all the land in Chica-l
go is not being used.
Every baby born in the city,
every new immigrant unloadedl
from the incoming eastern trains,
every stranger who comes to CHI
cago and settles down here to live, =
makes this land sell at a higher
price.
In some parts of the city the
houses are slammed close up
against each other, and in the
summer months people in these
districts gasp for air. So some
people have got the idea that Chi
cago hasn't got enough land for
the people who live in the city.
The fact is, as shown by the Rex
chart, that there is enough land
for everybody. The figures show,
400 square miles with houses
standing on them and 1884
square miles vacant, empty,

That the teaching of English in the
high school needs thorough re-organi-
cation to bring it into touch with
modern social and industrial demands
is frankly stated by rofessor James
II. Hosic, of Chicago Teachers Col
lege in a report just published by

ry suggestions for a course in Eng

Quirements
In this course English composition
will be limited to subjects for speak
ing and writing which can be made
to appeal to young people, according
to DR. Hosic In both composition
and literature there will be a shift
of emphasis towards those subjects
and activities that are of greatest
value in actual life-for example, or

hooks and periodicals.. 1t is not to
be Inferred, however that the sill
