BRICKER PARK

Mayor Green and wife OF Ionia with
little Miss Peggy Green spent Sunday
afternoon and evening at their cot
tage, the White House.
Mr.. and Mrs. Leon Osterhout Of
Chicago. visited with the Bricker
family from Saturday evening TO Mon
day morning at the Craneycrow cot
tage.
The Donovan boys, Frank, Law
renee and John, all students OF the
Ferris Institute, Big Rapids. are camp
ed for a week at the east end. Their
camp fire shows up bright every night.
No trouble to locate them. They be-
lieve in letting their light shine that
they are having.
At the Pioneer: A bunch OF BeId-
ing boys have been camping for the
past week, Oscar Rummler, Tom
Bracken, Hal Burriss, Fred Travis, al
so Chas. Greiner. a relative of DR.. and
Mrs. Stanton. They all took in the
Saturday night dance at the Heth
pavilion. The boys all say that meals
at the Pioneer were thinner than lake
water. Travis, the chief bottle wash
er. too lazy to wash dishes Tom
Bracken, hash singer and chief
entertainer, too busy rubbing vinegar
on Oscars back to alleviate the pain
from sun burns. Oscar said che had
all the cooking he cared for and rather
go hungry than cook or be cooked
more than the job the sun had done
on his back while in bathing" Sun
day proved TO be a day of fasting for
the crowd In the absence of meat
for the table Tom Bracken concluded
a mess Of fish for dinner would be the
proper ration. Failing to find a boat
Tom donned a bathing suit, armed
himself with a long cane pole, line
and fish hook and three angle worms,
then he waded out in the lake up to
his chin in water and proceeded to
fish for blue gills They do say that
Tom caught the fish about as fast as
he could pull them in and land them
on shore. The question of who should
clean the fish was argued for an hour
or more when it was discovered that
there was neither butter nor grease
to fry them in so the question of clean
ing was soon settled satisfactorily to
all by dumping the fish on the ground
where they lay until Monday morning
when discovered by Mr.. Bricker and
removed to dispose Of the odoriferous
smell emanating from near the kitch-
en- door OF the Pioneer cottage. Next
time you go camping boys have 1T
down in black and white who shall
do the cooking, wash the dishes. make
the beds, catch the fish, and clean
them, and don't forget the butter to
fry them in.

A Woman's Charm

Beautiful hair, fluffy, lustrous,
abundant and free from dandruff, is
one of woman's greatest charms-its
her main delight-yet many who
would be most attractive but for their
streaked, thin and lifeless hair. think
there is no remedy and that pretty
hair is gift of nature. Beautiful
hair is really matter of care and
attention. Partisan Sage, when rub
bed into the scalp and applied to the
hair, will work wonders-you will be
surprised and delighted with the first
application-not only will the hair
appear abundant, soft, fluffy, radiant
with life, but really doubly beautiful.
Partisan Sage supplies hair and
scalp needs. 1t surely removes dan
druff with one application and clean
SEES the hair of all dirt and excessive
oil IT is an inexpensive, scientific
tonic, and contains nothing to injure
the hair or scalp. 1t can be secured
from Wortley q French or at any
drug store.

but she went about IL with an air of
work, and she saw that the accom-
plishment of her task added greatly
to the tidiness OF the room, so she
performed IL with great pride. What
an excellent plan IL is To give children
some particular task for which they
are regularly responsible. 1t makes
them feel that they are part OF the
household and bear responsibility for
its tidy appearance. Such children do
not require mother and servants to
wait on them continually and they
grow up to be self-reliant, self-helpful
people who never think of being a
burden to others.

Don't let yourself grow old i'm feel
ings. IL means growing away from
yonr children and bitter, lonely hours.
Don't let yourself rust mentally.
The growing girl and boy who can
have mother help him out i'm a tight
place in his lessons, or can come To
her for a clear answer to a perpIexing
question, rarely gets that disagreeable
know-it-all air SO common TO young
America.
Don't try to force your children's
confidence. If from the start you
have tried to be a chum Of your child
the confidence will be given unso-
licited; those that are asked are Civ
en- grudgingly and with a sense of re-
sentiment, if not actually refused.
Don't let your children see that you
are disappointed in them. There is no
surer road TO self-consciousness and
the don't-care attitude than if the boy
or girl feels that mother thinks him
a failure.
Don't on the other hand, think your
progeny prodigies. If the child knows
he isn't, he is conscious of embarrass-
ment and being under a strain; if he
agrees with the maternal opinion he
becomes insufferably conceited.
Whatever else you do or leave un-
done, don't nag. There is no surer
love destroyer than mother who
never lets up, who magnifies trifles,
who is a chronic fault finder and
scold. The children Of such a mother
rarely are found in the home-if they
can get out of it.
