HELEN LAPHAN
HAS COMMUNICATION
FROM HENRY FORD
LETTER STATES THAT $500 DIMES
ARE REQUIRED TO GET \
FORD

With visions of a fine Ford automo-
bile within easy grasp there are many
boys, girls, men and women, in Michi-
gan who have scanned every dime
that came into their hands very close
ly and have eagerly sought every con-
tribution box and receipts from shows
and ice cream socials in the hope of
finding dimes with the letters forming
the name Ford" Some one started
the story that Mr.. Ford would give
a car for every four dimes sent him
bearing the letters.
Miss Helen Lapham wrote Mr.. Ford
in regard TO it and received the follow
ing reply:
You are perfectly right in saving
your dimes.
However, you have been mis-in-
formed. 1t takes just-tive thousand
five hundred dimes to get a Ford
Touring car-and this price is +. O..
b. Detroit.
We do not care much what initials
are on these dimes as long as the
dimes themselves are bona fide pro-
ducts of the United States mint.
You can understand how absurd
the rumor you make inquiry about is
when you know there are no dimes
with mint marks of "F'' and "R." as
the government has no mints located
in cities whose names begin with
these two letters.
We appreciate your interest in the
Ford car, and, under separate cover,
we are sending you literature telling
you why more than -550,000 persons
through the world have purchased the
Ford.
Very truly yours

SAVING LUMBER At
BELDING BASKET
COMPANY'S PLANT
LOGS ACCUMULATED FOR MANY
MONTHS MADE INTO LUM-
BER AND CORDWOOD

Leo Cowles and his uncle, Bella
Cowles, operating as Cowles Bros,
have been saving the logs, that were
unstable for basket material into
lumber and wood at the Belding Bas-
ket Co.'s plant the past ten days. The
logs of various kinds have been ac-
cumulatng in the yards for over a
year. Many Of them were shipped in
from timber lands where the whole
stumpage was purchased.
The saw mill is stationed on the
north side of the street running past
the factory. The logs were drawn to
the mill on log boat. All of them
that would make lumber or bill stuff
were cut into lumber and the Gull
stuff passed on to another saw where
il was cut into cord wood. Several
thousand feet Of good lumber and
hundreds of cords of wood were cut.
The wood will be sold out TO any
one desiring it. The lumber, after be-
ing air dried, will either be used by
one of the local factories or sold out
TO small consumers.

RESTRAINING ORDER
SERVED ON BASE
BALL ASSOCIATION
CHAS. c. BRIGGS AND WIFE HAVE
PAPER SERVED ON MAYOR
AND MANAGER
GRAND STAND MOVE
POSTPONED FOR WEEK
Plans Call for the Erection of Build
To Seat Six Hundred

The local base ball association re-
ceived a jolt from the circuit court
Monday morning when temporary re-
strainng orders were served upon
Mayor f. f. Underwood, Manager Guy
Alexander and DR.. Il. w. Little TO COM
pei them to refrain from playing ball
on the grounds known as Athletic
Park
The order was issued on the com
plant Of c. c. Briggs and his wife of
this city. The especial reason for
serving the papers at this time was the
fact that the association was to begin
the erection of a grand stand on the
ground near the residence of Mr..
Briggs Briggs claims that the park
and the playing Of ball is a nuisance
and detriment to his property
Following the serving of the papers
Mayor Underwood, Guy Alexander, l..
T.. Fales and Clyde Knapp went to
Ionia TO see Judge Davis. The judge
granted the association the privilege
of playing ball until the return day,
Monday, July 6. The hearing will be
held at Ionia and will be watched with
interest. Popular opinion is with the
base ball association.
Because of the restraining order
the work on the grand stand has been
postponed until after the hearing. The
subscribed funds are being collected
and everything will be in badness to
begin operations in earnest immed-
lately following the hearing, provided
the case is decided in favor of the base
ball association. Enough money has
haH tn 10 or
The plans of the grand stand are,
TO have it built triangular in form and
located in the extreme southeast cor
ner of the athletic field. The main
entrance to the field and stand will be
through the center of the stand itself.
Ticket office and windows and check
ing rooms will be placed TO either side
of the entrance. Leading off from the
division covering the entrance and the
ticket booths a wing will be built both
to the west and north. The seats Will
be arranged so as TO allow plenty of
room for walks without interfering
with those who are sitting in their
seats. The capacity of the stand will
be about six hundred.
At convenient place in the corner
of the grounds hydrant or drinking
fountain will be erected for the play
ers. Another will be placed in the
grand stand. Other conveniences will
also be placed for the accommodation
Of the players and spectators. The
whole structure will be neatly painted
and will be both an Improvement to
the field and an asset to the city's
beauty.
A paper has been circulated by the
fans petitioning the mayor and coun-
Gil to use all of their good offices to
secure the playing of ball and the
holding of other sports on the athletic
field With but few exceptions the
paper was signed by everyone that
was solicited.

TICKET SALE At
PERE MARQUETTE
STATION WAS LARGE
SUNDAY MORNING TRAINS ARE
SCANTILY PATRONIZED
ALONG ROUTE

Local ticket agent, Earl Jakeway of
the Pere Marquette, reports a large
ticket sale the latter part of last week.
on Thursday the sales reached almost
to three hundred dollars, with the
average fare ranging around S150.
on Friday the total receipts from
tickets sold came almost TO four hun
dred dollars and the average price of
the tickets were low also. Saturdays
sales eclipsed the other two and came
above the $500 mark. The large sale
was due to the summer vacation in
the mills. The employees who lived
outside Of town went home or TO other
places on their vacation trips.
The early trains on Sunday are not
being patronized as the railroad COM
pny had expected that they would be.
The one going to Grand Rapids at ten
fifteen last Sunday carried only twen-
ty-five or thirty passengers in the
three coaches with FIVE tickets sold
from here and the one going to Green
Vile had even less patronage with on
ly one ticket sold for the train. This
one was sold TO Greenville only. Tn
less the morning trains are given bet
ter patronage the company will with
draw them soon, because the invest
ment is not paying out. The nearness
OF vacation periods accounts to some
measure for the shortage I'm travel at
the present time.

TEACHING OF THE
FOURTH
BY Rev. Francis r.. Clark

our nation has been marvel
ously prospered in the past be-
cause the great heart of the peo-
pie has been sound and true.
We have been, for the most
part, true to the traditions of
the fathers. We have kept in
good degree to the simplicity
and God fearing purpose of the
pilgrims. We have sought to
make America an asylum for
the oppressed and to stand for
righteousness and liberty and
peace among the nations of the
world. Because of this great
underlying purpose, in spite of
many mistakes and wanderings
from the highest ideal, God has
wonderfully blessed us. We are
among the live and living ma
tions of the day, as Lord Sails
bury expresses it, and not among
the dying nations. Then, in con-
clusion, let one with seven gen.
erations of American and Puri-
tan blood in his viens urge you,
patriotic young Christian Amer
leans. to be true TO your great
inheritance, to remember all the
way in which God has led us in
the past, to stand for our coun-
try when she is right, but new
er for "our country right or
wrong" to use the victories of
the past as not abusing them,
and to resolve that because of
the great favor Of our God we
will do our very best to make
our beloved land a righteous,
God fearing. peace loving ma
tion, ever the refuge and the
champion of the oppressed and
never a bombastic bully among
the nations of the earth.
