This is Borella's trade mark and fox
twenty years it has been his slogan ard

hippodrome track he shouts these wolai.s
Little tots know him for he has III
weighed cheer and happiness into tia
hearts of millions of them.
Beneath Borella's make up of verral-
lion and white there is q sober eacs
that on q downtown street corner Ccs
would pick for banker or professieCss
man. He dresses neatly and there ia III
air of polish and bearing in his mGn..
ners which stands in vivid contrast Ia
the foolishly, funny fellow who cavsrss
about in the big arena tent working
the flap sticks and making fire crsskscs
do their full duty.
Mr.. Borella is the originator of Many
clown novelties. He is the first pecsaa,
to successfully introduce baseball uaxr.

Question Of Crossing County
Decision Not Announced,
The court room at Corunna was
scarcely large enough to contain all
those desiring to be present Saturday
at the joint hearing by State Highway
Commissioner Rogers and the County
Road Commissioners upon the question
of locating the highways for the state
trunk line road which are to be built in
this county. Large delegations were
present from several of the villages and
the townships in the county and from
Oakley, Saginaw county. Venice town
ship is particularly agitated over the
road which will come into this county
from Genesee and both the north and
the sonth road factions were out in
force and presented strong arguments
for their sides, as did those favoring the
east and the west sides Of the river for
the road to run from Owosso 70 the
Saginaw county line. Henderson and
Oakley citizens are diyided on the
proposition, the former favoring the
west side and the latter the east giving
them q direct road to Owosso. For the
road running west from Owosso to
Ovid, 1t is understood the line will run
west on Main street past the FIVE COR
ners to the cemetery and then south TO
what is known as the Ovid road and on
to the Clinton county line No decision
was reached as to the other lines and 1t
is understood come surveying will be
done on the proposed lines to ascertain
definitely as to the cost of the grading,
etc.. and that careful inspection will
be made by Commissioner Rogers and
the County Commissioners, Parmenter,
Byerly and Bailey, before deciding upon
the routes If the interest shown at
the meeting could be maintained and
utilized Shiawsssee county could soon
have as good road system as there is
in the state.

STREET RAILWAY
TRACKS REMOVED
Corunna's Fight on Street
Car Companies Causes a
Sunday Surprise Party.

At midnight Saturday 100 laborers
were unloaded in Corunna by the Mich
igsn United Traction Co. and the men
Immediately began to tear up the tracks
and ties of the street railway, and by
night had removed all evidences in Cor
unna Of street car line that has had
rocky road Of ownership and conduct
for twenty years and was being asked
by Corunna to show cause why it
should not do many things it was not
doing, and showed no intention of
doing according to their idea.
The line was built from Owosso to
Corunna in 1912 by John Haynes,
passing eighteen years ago to the pos.
session of l. D. 81. Ralph, who secured
a thirty year franchise to operate on
Lombard and Shiawassee avenues and
Frasier street by promising half hourly
service to the Ann Arbor depot. The
road did not pay and passed to the hands
of A Stephenson of Philadelphia, and
later to the Owosso & Corunna Electric
Co. the tracks and equipment becoming
worse and worse most of the time until
the track on Shiawassee avenue in Cor
unna was unsafe and was abandoned
for service. cars being run on no partic-
ular schedule. The road passed to the
control of the Michigan United Rail
ways Co. and suit was begun by Cor
unna to compel some sort of action for
better service, but the suit was ignored
and finally Corunna asked to have the
action dismissed so as to begin another
kind of suit to see If the results could
not be secured. Judge Miner granted
the request and the Michigan United
Traction Co., now the owners, was cited
to appear to show cause why the terms
of the franchise should not be complied
with. The M. q. T. appealed from the
order of Dismissal of the first suit and
that case is pending in the supreme
conrt. The Corunna officials will con-
tinue their fight for decision of both.
cases
The action of Sunday was a big sur
prise to everybody and a great disap-
pointment TO the many people who are
obliged to 20 back and forth between
the two towns. Cars are being run to
the Corunna city limits and it is not a
bad walk to the court house or other
parts of Corunna In fine weather, but is
nuisance and takes a lot of time. No
attempt was made to stop the company's
work, and everyone is Of the opinion
that before snow flies some line will
be running better than ever.
Recently men have been in the county
securing a private right Of way between
Owosso and Corunna and it is believed
q new and up-to date track and outfit
under M. U. T. ownership will he the
result. It is also thought by many that
Sundays action was taken to make
possible the condemnation of parts of
the new right. Of way which have been
refused. The new line will be the same
to the Ann Arbor crossing on Corunna
road, then south 200 feet or 80 and
straight east to Corunna ending at
Woodworth street one block west Of
Shiawassee.
