BUILDING OUT.
LOOK FAVORABLE
Grand Rapids People Instead to
do Considerable Building

The building outlook for the city
of Grand Rapids for the spring and
according to the views of local ar
chitect- The building activities start
with the proposed Elks Club house,
a possible school ON the west side
down thru quite a number of dwell
ing houses.
Buildingactivity, even though SIM
ply conrtemp plated at this time, speak
strongly for a good summer season
and for the prosperity OF the city.
The money tightness which has
caused considerable worry during the
winter and early days of 1914, is let
ting up. The tide of business acti-
vity which has started in the east,
already lis beginning to be felt in
this part of the country. There is
lots of promise of a real good sum
mers business ahead of the business
men in Grand Rapids as we'll as
in other parts of the country.

BROUGHT TO HOSPITAL

The little seven year old son of Mr.
aud Mrs. Peter Svgl of Willard,
whose sad experience of being lost in
the woods near that place for three
days and nights, an account of which
was published in last weeks Her
aid, was brought to this city from
Greenwood Monday and taken to st.
Joseph's hospital for treatment. The
boy is thin and wan, his general ap-
pearance being the best evidence of
the terrible ordeal through which
he has passed. Nevertheless he is
going to recover but will be minus
five toes which We're amputated On
the day of his arrival here, the re-
suit of freezing. He is a bright lit
tie fellow and talks freely Of his eX-
periences with the exception of the
last day and might which he seems
to have spent in a cOmatose state as
when he was found he was lying by
the side of a log partially un-
conscious and so weak from hunger
that he was unable to stand. His pa
rents, it seems, are poor and q.
Greenwood, where he was taken af-
ter being found, the good people OF
that place raised Sis by popular sui
scription for his treatment and care.
