selves to the effect that the problem
of river navigation so far as Grand
Rapids is concerned, is assured, and
that there only remains now one thing
in it's final success and that is suffi-
cient flow of water. / am sure that
this was highly apparent to a large
number of our company for at one or
two points in the river bends, they de-
clared that they saw land. An ex-
animation of the official documents re-
lating to Grand River as a navigable
stream shows, while at times there
wasn't very much water in the river,
it was never known to go dry.
The Grand River waterway is beau
tifully fringed on either side of its
banks, which terrace themselves back
to the fertile farms and peaceful rural
homes, and its luxuriant foliage
droops majestically waterward, while
from overland the delightful western
breezes brought to us the fragrance Of
the ripened clover, timothy and al
falfa. Not infrequently we could see
the Holstein and the Jersey mixer
pasturing in the shade of some tall
and mighty Elm. If you have read Of
the great harvests out upon the west
ern plains you could we'll imagine
that in the background along the
Grand there were waving fields of fast
ripening grains to gladden. the heart
of the Michigan Farmer.
Our arrival in due time at Spring
Lake, after a 6-hour trip on the river
and the reception that awaited us by
a joint committee from the Grand
Haven Commercial Club and the
Spring Lake Improvement Association
was one of our most enjoyable ex-
periences. We were first escorted to
the Spring Lake Hotel; received our
room assignments, and discarded our
life belts, water proof apparel and our
fears of lake water catastrophes.
After numerous social greetings we
found ourselves in the banquet hall
and right here is where 1850 of US,
did terrible execution to the viands,
so popular at this hotel, and which in
cluded everything of an appetizing
nature, after which we listened to an

TIPS ON PRESERVING
EMBROIDERY.

Every woman who embroiders and
spends hours doing the finest kind of
needlework wants to protect it from
the ravages of time as long as posi-
BILE.
If given to the ordinary laundress,
embroidered dresses, waists and arti-
cles for the household soon lose their
beauty. If sent to a professional
cleaners they are constant drain on
the allowance. The most delicately
embroidered article can be success
fully cleaned at home if the following
suggestions are observed:
All colored embroidery should be
soaked in salt water for 10 minutes
before washing. This will preserve
the colors.
Make suds from warm water and
mild white soap. Rinse through
several clear waters and hang up until
partially dry. Roll up for half an
hour and iron on a Turkish towel with
a moderately hot iron.
Never hang up fine embroidery, but
pin on folded towels until dry enough
to iron.
If round on oval pieces show signs
OF gathering up AFTER WaShlng, per-
haps it is due to the workers tight
stitches. To remedy this, stitch and
pin out on folded towels while wet.
Do not spare pins or trouble to have
the piece perfectly straight and fiat.
Scalloped edges demand careful
treatment. Never pull them in shape,
but lightly smooth each scallop in
place and pin.
Fruit stains can be removed by
pouring boiling water through them,
and ink stains will disappear if placed
Immediately in milk. Cover wine
stains with salt before pouring the
boiling water through.
Never wiring an embroidered article,
but press the superfuous water out
between towels.
Gold and silver embroideries should
not be washed. Brush gently and lay
on a paper sprinkled with powdered
magnesia; cover over with magnesia
and lay aside for a few days, then
shake well, and brush with fine, soft
brush until it is bright.
Most needlewomen find it pleasant
task to launder embroidery at home.

When ] received an invitation from
the West Michigan Press Association
TO accompany them on their grand
Third Annual Outing, to be held at
Grand Haven and Spring Lake on
Thursday, Friday ard Saturday, June
Is, 10, and 20, 1914, | felt that it
Ys a duty to that longing personal
desire of mine for little recreation,
to accept the generous invitation; but
at the same time there came to me
the thought that | would have to
apologize to my dear readers of the
Young Folks Department for giving
them a beautiful blank space where
an interesting and instructive article
should have appeared, but the trip it
self was so full of interest, surprises
and pleasure that | am sure | would
not be doing my readers justice if |
did not give them a heart to heart
story of how l enjoyed myself.
1t was about lis p. m. on Thurs
day, June IS, that in company with
a lsYge gathering of Editors, Publish
ers and Co-Workers in the Field of
Letters, we boarded the steamship
May Graham, who by the way had
just come from Grand Haven and had
fastened the hawser securely to the
Jesick Docks, which is situated just
below Fulton Street Bridge, on the
east side of Grand River, at Grand
Rapids. 1t was the first time that |
had ever seen the May Graham. She
was formerly owned by the Graham
q Morton Company of st. Joseph,
Mich, and was named after Miss May
Graham, daughter of Mr.. Graham,
one of Michigan's pioneer shipmas-
ters. She is now owned by the Cros
by Transportation Company of Mil
waukee, Wis. Captain Peter Boet, the
chief engineer, Robert Collins, and the
genial and enterprising Mr.. j. A. john
son, general agent for the Crosby lines
at Grand Haven, assumed all respon-
sibility for the safe arrival and de-
parture of our steamship, Miss May
Graham, on this occasion.
Below you will notice a beautiful
picture of this staunch little side
wheeler.

representa- is only natural that my
view point and observation should be
directed in channels not quite so con-
structive, but rather to the thought
and wish of being imbued with the
grandeur of natures scenery; whether
in the cast by the deep foliage of
trees; or the panorama of colors that
reach out over the field or woodland;
or the golden rays of the sun, as it
casts its radiant lines in lurid hue; or
of the sail that seemed to touch the
horizon out upon the broad expanse of
waters; or of the quietude of the herd
upon the verdure; or of the sweet
voiced songsters, waiting to us mes
sages that give hope and encourage
ment. Everywhere in everything,
tried to feel something of the great
impulses that makes for real and emo
BLING life and all our consciousness of
a duty to make our life a standard of
worthy ideals whether it is destined
to lead or to follow.
