Would Beautifv CITY

Definite plans for the beautifica-
tion of the city, were suggested by
Prof. Tealdi, head of the depart
ment of landscape design at the Uni
versity OF Michigan, in his address
on Municipal Parks" before the
Congregational Brotherhood Mon
day evening. The address was ac-
companied by stereoptican views
which illustrated the before and
after" of city Identification work.
The program followed a banquet
which was partaken of by fifty
members OF the brotherhood and
their guests.
A quartet, consisting of Messrs
King, Haynes, Parker and Wolfe
rendered two selections that wer
well received. They were accom-
panied by Miss Bertha Allen on the
piano. Brief remarks by E. o. Dew.
ey and Or. B. S. Sutherland follow.
ed.
Prof. Tcaldi then outlined the
progress in the ablishment Of
municipal parks from the year 1900
to. the present time. Taking up To-
cal conditions, he declared that tho
banks cf the Shiawassee river, par
ticularly on the east side, between
the Washington and Main street
bridges, could be made very attrac-
tive with the expenditure of a COM
paratively small sum annually. The
refuse could be cleared up and the
Wow of unsightly buildings obscured
by shrubbery. A foot path along
the hank would add to the beauty
he declared.
The Emerson school grove could
be made into very attractive park
with little expense, and an artificial
lake for boating purposes in the
summer and skating in the winter,
could be realized at no great cost, on
the Reliance truck properly, south
of tho Grand Trunk tracks. This
property was formerly used as a
brick yard, and the present excava-
tions. he declared, would be almost
sufficient.

Ann Arbor Railroad Officials and EN-.
pioyees to Meet.

A meeting of the employees and off
cials of the Ann 'Arbor railroad, has
been. called for Sunday afternoon, Feb
ruary 16, at 1: 80 o'clock at the G.. A R.
hall in this city, for the purpose of pro
mitigating spirit of co operation be
tween the workmen and the officials
with view OF bettering the service OF
the road and the conditions of all con-
cerned.
The plan is new one on the Ann
Arbor road, although many of the other
railroad companies, through the United
States adopted the plan some time ago.
The officials and workmen meet and
discuss in an informal and friendly way
the defects in the system, point out
where improvements can be made, and
become better acquainted.
The idea is that of General Manager
Towsley, who recently was elected to
that position. He has tried it with sue
cess on the other roads on which he has
worked and it is believed that the plan
will be successful here. The meetings
will be held at frequent intervals in the
future.

Would Succeed Rosenkrans

The following is clipped from a
Mason dispatch, in the Lansing State
Journal, reporting the recent Repub-
lican convention of Ingham county:
There was some significance in the
selection of Thompson as chairman
OF the convention, as healthy boom
has developed to make aim the next
state senator from this district, and
the movement was given new impet-
us when the clan gathered here on
Wednesday afternoon.
Shiawassee county has selected
the senator during the past two cam
raigns and according to long stand
ing agreement, Ingham county picks
the senator every four years. Ac-
cording to the political history of
Ingham county, the eastern section
OF tho county never has had repre-
sentative in the senate, and Mr..
Thompson's friends feel that he is
the logical successor to Senator Ros-
epkrans. He is well known through
out the district, as he has been active
in Republican politics for the past
IS years. At the present time he is
deputy grand master of the Odd Fell
lows Of the state, and will be grand
master next year. He Is the editor
and publisher of The American Odd
Fellow and is personally acquainted
in every l. o. o. F. lodge in this dis
trict.
Many of the prominent Republi-
Gems of Lansing have assured Mr..
Thompson of their support, and If
no other Republican enters the race
for the nomination from this county
Mr.. Thompson will be without oppo-
sition in the primaries next year.

PLANS
Completed For Cooper Bridge
Outing Al Cedar Point

Everybody 10 talking about It. and
everybody Is going on the Cooper
Bridge Co. excursion to Cedar Point
Saturday, June 21st. Why? For
several good and substantial reasons.
First, Cedar Point is one of the
most beautiful spots In the State;
1t not only has all the attractions that
are offered by other resorts, but It
has the advantage OF being on Lake
Erie and Possesses the finest bathing
beach In the world Second, one Of
the high officials OF the b. & o. Il. r..
has Informed the committee that
there will be week end excursions
to Cedar Point this summer and
probably no Sunday excursions, SO
this is the only sure opportunity OF
being able to visit Cedar Point at an
extremely low fare.
Third, arrangements have been
made to start the trains at $3.50 q.
m. This will give those, who have
visited Cedar Point number OF
times, and are desirous OF taking In
other places of interest, chance to
catch excursion boats for Lake Side
Kelley's Island, Put.in-Bay and other
points of interest along the lake
front.
This being the anniversary OF Per
rys victory, there will be special at
fractions at all the Lake Erie cities
and resorts during the entire season
