B0YNE CITY MAN
KILLED BY AUTO
COroners Jury, After Inspection
ExOnerateS Driver.

Last Friday evening Paul Bornak of
Boyne City received injuries from
which he died the next morning when
he collided with an auto driven by
Alex Cameron, near the chemical plant
in this city. Mr.. Bornak, in company
with Andrew Kleist OF Boyne City were
on their way to the furnace about 900
o'clock in the evening where they ex-
pected TO get employment on the night
shift. They were walking on opposite
sides of the road as the auto approach
ed. Mr.. Cameron sounded his horn
and the men spoke to each other about
the approaching auto. AS it neared
them, Bornak started to run diagonally
across the ro9d to his companion. In
doing this he ran toward the auto. Mr..
Cameron in endeavoring to avoid a
collision, swerved his auto and ran it
into the ditch stopping it in about fif-
teen feet. In the swinging of the car
around Bornak ran headlong into the
mud-guard, striking with such force
that his body went over the wheel,
executing completed somersault and
striking on his face at the outer edge
of the road. The unfortunate man was
Immediately taken to local surgeons
office, and the wounds were dressed.
He seemed to be resting easily, but
evidently a bloodclot formed on his
brain and he died the next morning at
1000 o'clock.
A coroners jury was impanelled and
after investigating the matter, render
ed report completely eXonerating
M. Cameron from any negligence in
the matter.

Safety for Children

With the opening of schools in both
town and country, special "safety for
children" movement might save many
accidents. Read the following to your
children:
Before crossing a street, always stop
and look both ways to see if any kind
of vehicle is approaching. If there be
one near, wait for it to pass. Attempt
ing to run in front of any vehicle is
very dangerous.
Cross the streets at regular crossings
only. Drivers of vehicles usually eX-
pect to meet with pedestrians on cross
ings, but not between them.
Do not walk in the street. Use the
sidewalks.
Do not play in the streets.
Do not try to jump onto any moving
vehicle.
A placard, similar to the above, was
posted in the schools at some places
last year, and it would be well for all
schools in this vicinity to post them
this year.

What the Governors Like to
Eat.

Mrs. A. o. Eberhart, wife of Min
nesota's governor, says her husbands
favorite dish is strawberry mousse and
gives the following recipe for making it.:
One quart of cream one box of straw
berries, two cups of sugar, quarter Of
a box of gelatine, two tablespoons of
cold water, three table poons of hot
water
Wash and hull berries, sprinkle with
sugar and let stand an hour; mash and
rub through fine sieve; add gelatine,
soaked in cold and dissolved in boiling
water. Set in pan of ice water and
stir until it begins to thicken. Then
fold in whipped cream. Put in mold,
pack in salt and ice and let stand four
hours.

EAT MORE BEANS
AND LESS MEAT
They're as Nutritive as Beef and
Cost Much Less, Says COm'r
HeIme.

Food Commissioner Helme says that
the public should at once get educated
on what constitutes a cheap balanced
ration for the human ANIMAL Two
kinds of foods are necessary for human
life. The carbohydrates which furnish
heat and energy and the proteins which
repair the bodily waste. The first are
obtained by starchy or fat foods and
are easily and cheaply obtained from
potatoes and the cereals. Protein to
repair bodily waste has generally been
obtained through meat. But there are
other sources Of protein much cheaper.
A working man needs three ounces of
protein daily to repair the bodily
wastes. Before the balloon went up
this could be obtained in beefsteak for
II cents. Some vegetable foods contain
large amount of protein. Three
ounces CT protein in the form of beans
can be obtained for one-third what it
costs for beefsteak. The moral to the
housewife is to feed the cold man"
more beans and less beefsteak. Peas
and Lentils are also rich in protein. A
quart of milk has more food value tina
a pound of meat and is more easily di-
gested. Cheese has much greater
food value than meat pound for pound.
Canned salmon has a much greater
food value than any meat andcosts less.
Meat is not necessary for human exis-
tence. This is maintained by as great
an authority as DR.. Kellogg, of Battle
Creek, who has raised twenty-five
children and ought to know from ex-
perience. Potatoes and corn meal are
the cheapest form of starchy foods
Michigan produces more beans and
potatoes than any state in the Union,
and is third in the production of cheese
and milk. Michigan people ought not
to be.xembalrased because meat has
taken flyer.
In anticipation of the war this de-
partment has had printed 10000 copies
of bulletin on foods and food values,
which can be had free on application.
1t shows the food value of all common
foods. From it the housewife can
figure out a balanced ration that will

OF Interest To Women

Brazilian parrots are a new note in
millinery.
In the fabric world stripes and dots
prevail.
Large, brilliant colored buttons are
often the only spot of color on dark
suit.
Lace and chiffon caps are seen.
AS rule they are lined with black or
colOred chiffon.
When washing and rinsing colored
materials add teaspoonful of EPSON
Salts to each gallon of water, and even
the most delicate shades will neither
fade nor run. Serge or merino dresses
which have been dyed black can be
safely washed this way without any
risk of the dye running.

7Nl UNUSUAL ATTRACTION

AS a rule the dramatization of
popular books are disappointing.
The books furnishing only the idea
making it necessary to take liberties
that cause the characters TO lose their
identity when presented in dramatic
form. True, there are a few notable
exceptions, but the cases are rare and
rarer still are the books that find favor
when taken from plays. The one pos1
sible exception is "The Virginian" the
play being first produced shortly after
the first edition of the book was sold.
Book and play alike possess a romatic
charm and literary grace that has
placed them at the top of unqualified
success.
The play, which has seldom been
seen outside the larger cities, is ac-
knowledged to have no counterpart in
its class, while the book is sought after
and read with the same enthusiasm as
when first introduced. Jones and
Cra1e's magnificent production of "The
Virginian" will be the attraction at the
,gEmple Theatre ou Sept 3rd and that
i will prove one of the really enjoyable
offerings of the currant season goes
without saying.

School Notes

The East Jordan Public Schools open
in all departments on Monday, Sept. Z.
Be sure TO see the exhibit of the East
Jordan schools at the Fair.
The old central building has been
greatly improved recently by the lay
ing of new hardwood floors in the four
west rooms and the upper and lower
halls.
Miss Edith Smatts will act as princi-
pal of the West Side school in place of
Miss Winters, who has resigned. Miss
Smatts made an excellent record as
teacher in the schools at Central Lake.
Parents should remember that pupils
using old, soiled, dog-earred and germ
laden text books are handicapped at
the start in tnelr work. New books
will be supplied this year at actual cost
Friends and patrons of the school
will be sorry to learn that Miss Cath
crime Winters has been compelled by
ill health to resign her position as
principal in the West Side school. Miss
Winters has been an efficient and faith
ful teacher in this city for several
years.
Parents of high school pupils should
take especial interest at the beginning
of the term in the selection of subjects
of study for their children. Do not
leave this entirely to the pupil. The
course of study for the coming year
will be printed and placed in the hands
OF parents and pupils so that a careful
choice Of course and subjects may be
made.
The Board of Education has decided
to purchase and handle the school
books for the coming year. This will
mean a saving to the patrons of about
% per cent on the former price. Books
will be sold at the Central, West Side
and Jordan River schools and no books
will be given out except on receipt of
the price as no credit can be allowed.
Books will be sold at cost.
East Jordan will be fortunate this
year to be numbered among the 35 or
20 Michigan towns having an agricul-
tural course offered by the high school.
The Board of Education has secured
Mr.. T. c. Zeluff of Seneca Falls. N. Y.
a recent graduate of the M. A. c.,
to act as science teacher and begin a
course in agriculture. Mr.. Zeluff was
reared on farm and his training in
scientific agriculture and his interest in
farm life should prove of value in East
Jordan and the community. 1t is
planned to make this work very
strong part OF the high school course.
AS Mr. Zeluff is taking the place of the
regular instructor the work is being
added at no extra expense to the
district.

In the Cleaning

In the cleaning, oh, my darling,
When the cars are whizzing past,
Sit we two upon our front porch
Till we see the very last.
1t is time to seek the feathers,
But We linger still outside;
Twenty persons said they'd take us
Out a-riding, but they lied.
In the cleaning oh my darling,
We will sit till midnight's hour,
As the motor cars fly past us
On the wings of benzine power.
Do not give up hope, my darling,
Keep a-smiling, and sit tight;
II we wait for twenty summers,
Maybe one will stop some night

CHARLEVOIX MAN
FALLS HEIR TO
MANY MILLIONS
Owner of Small Bakery Inherits
Share In Vast Estate.

There is one family at least in Char
levoix county which will not complain
of 1914 as being year of hard times.
This is the family of Peter Smith of
CharlevoiX. Mr.. Smith has conducted
a bakery on Bridge street for the past
three or four years. Last week he re-
ceived word that he was one of thirty
five heirs to an estate worth a quarter
of billion dollars. The Charlevoix
Courier contains the following con-
cerning the legacy:
The origin of this vast estate dates
back for something like a hundred
years and reminds one of fairy tale.
Way back in the early days Mr.. Smith S
great grand father, one Mr. Hits,
settled in the Mohawk Valley in Penn
sylvania, and acquired considerable
property. Among his holdings were
some 800 acres of land along the Della
ware river. Upon this land deposits of
coal were discovered and it was leased
for 80 years to promoters, who pro-
ceeded to develop the land and which
proved TO be the richest deposits in the
east.
The terms of the lease were such
that royalties were paid, which during
the life of the lease have accumulated
until they have reached the vast sum of
over s500,000, 900. Advertisements
were placed in many of ihe leading pa
pers, and last week Mr.. Smith left for
the east to claim his share.
From what we can learn, Mr.. Smith S
mother was the granddaughter of Hits
thus being his great grandfather max
ing him one of the heirs of nearest kin.
Search among the existing relatives
reveal that there are but thirty-five
now living, all of whom are to meet in
the next few days for the settlement of
the estate. Mrs. Smith stated to the
Courier that their interest in the ac-
cumulated money would amount to
something like s14,OOO,OOO, besides
their equity in the 800 acres of coal
land about two miles of valuable front
age the Delaware river, and valuable
real estate at various places.

keep the human engine going without
paying forty cents pound for beef
steak. If we all cut out greater part
of the meat we eat, we will have health
and at the same time put hole in the
high-priced meat balloon with the old
gun "lack of demand" that will make
it come down within reach again.
Education of food consumers on food
values is the most available remedy at
present for the high cost of living.

.ther five.
vProbably the greatest interest of the
voters this year was the scrap on in
the new eleventh congressional district
between Joseph L. Bayliss Chippew a
county and Senator Frank d. Scott Of
Alpena. The district is widely scatter
ed and contains seven npper peninsula
counties and nine from the northern
part of the lower peninsula. Nothing
has been left undone by these two can
didates 70 carry the field. Returns
have been exceptionally slow and a
satisfactory count is impossible to Sc
cure. Scott polled a heavy vote in the
lower peninsula and it will be neces-
sary to find out what Bayliss did in the
upper portion. On the face of the vote
at present it indicates that Scott has
carried the district by from 1000 to 81
600.
