TRUNK LINE ROAD
BEING PLANNED
EAST OF BELDING

A movement Is on foot TO build
trunk line highway g feet wide from
the east city limits OF Bedding at what
is known as Strong's Corners to
point 3 ga miles east past Green's
church, at what is known as Hoyts
Corners.
Permission has already been secured
from the State Highway Commissioner
to build three miles and negotiations
are now being carried on TO have this
extended TO three and three-fourths
miles.
This line or highway through a bill
passed in the legislature sometime ago
has been designated as "a part Of the
trunk line highway from Detroit TO
Mackinaw, and cannot be built with
the state sanction less than 2 feet in
width; and in addition must have the
sanction OF the Highway Commission
er and on this particular stretch OF
road east he advocated a 6 foot road
in place OF II.
on a trunk line highway the reward
is double the usual state reward for
highway building, which makes the
amount that the state would pay to-
ward building this road $500 per
mile
It is hoped that the townships Of
Otisco and Orleans will donate $500
per mile toward the expense. and the
balance is 10 be raised by public sub
scription.
An option has already been secured
on sufficient gravel and it is believed
that the grading can be done at
very nominal expense, inasmuch as
there are no hills. few culverts and
no bridges.
1t is expected that donations to the
extent Of $500 loads of gravel drawn
on the road can be secured from
farmers living along the line OF the
roadway and an additional amount in
cash, will be raised locally i'm Belding
and Ionia.
This road if it can be completed will
tap some OF the richest farming coun-
try surrounding Belding and should be
Of vital interest to every merchant and
property owner tn Belding.
Later developments will be noted
in this paper.

FINE ARRAY Of
TALENT PROMISED
FOR CHAUTAUQUA

The Redpath Chautauqua program
announced for our city this season. in
both music and lectures, will eclipse
that of last year. The fact that Alice
Nielsen. prima donna soprano Of the
Metropolitan and Boston Opera Com
panies, is to sing is worthy OF the
widest mention. This is the first time
so noted an artist has appeared on any
Chautauqua circuit and the musical
journals have been deVoting a great
deal OF space to the announcement as
indicating the new field represented on
Chautauquas for the most famous
musical artists.
Alice Nielsen is known both in Eu-
rope and America as one ofthe greatest
singers of this generation. She Is
Southern woman, having been born in
Nashville Tenn, and the South is
rightly proud Of Miss Nielsen's world
wide success.
Miss Nielsen is said to be the only
great artist who has made a success in
grand opera after first having made
reputation in light opera After APP
pearing as prima donna Of the Boston
ians. and later touring with her own
light opera company in both this coun-
try and in Europe, she suddenly de-
cided to devote herself to grand opera
and began all over again as a student.
She made her grand opera debut
in Italy and won immediate success.
More will be published in these
columns about Miss Nielsen in later
issues
Another innovation on this years
Chautauqua program is represented in
the modern play-"The Servant in the
House" by Charles Ram Kennedy,
which is TO be presented with William
owen in the title role. Heretofore all
Chautauqua plays have been mostly
from Shakespeare or of other historic
origin.
Willim owen, who heads the Ser
want in the House" company. was for
twelve years at the head Of his own
company At the age of twenty-three
he was playing "Mephistopheles' for
Lewis Morrison in Faust" He took
Mr. Morrison's part in this play for
six months. lie has appeared in near
ly all Shakespearean roles lie has
played the part of David Garrick in
David Garrick" and Ingomar in In
gomar" He played a leading role
with Julia Marlowe in McNicker's
Theatre. Chicago, and in the original
role Of Josephine, Empress of the
French. appeared with Rhea, the
great French actress, in Broadway
Theatre, New York.

MRS. N. B. FERRY
TALKED TO SCHOOL
Of OLD MICHIGAN
CURATOR OF MICHIGAN HiS1OHi-
CAL COMMISSION KNOWS
ABOUT PIONEERS

Mrs. NJ. T. Ferry of Lansing, cura-
tor of the Michigan Historical Com
mission, was the speaker at the high
school last Friday afternoon. Mrs
Ferry is "A pleasing speaker and she
had an interesting topic TO talk about.
She is spending all Of her time IN
the interest OF historical matters IN
Michigan.
Mrs. Ferry told Of some interesting
things which she had found in Michi-
gan during her twelve years in the
work. She spoke especially OF the
change in making different articles
and their effect on civilization.
"The first cowbell" said Mrs. Fer
ry. was made of wood. AT first IL
had only one clapper and produced
sound that could be heard for long
distance through the woods. This
simple bell was later improved unti
il had three clappers and "a strap 10
hold il on the animal Every per-
son who wanted a bell for his cattle
made il himself.
"In those primitive times the wom-
en- made all OF the bread, but now IL
is made by the men and we caIl tue
nIace where they make il q bakery.
The wife prepared all OF the other
food, when Michigan was young. Now
a large share Of it is made in large
manufacturing institutions. Likewise
the good wife used 10 spin all OF her
own yarn and weave large part OF
the cloth from which clothing for the
family was made. Today II Is all
made in factories and lots OF 1t Is made
bv the men. And yet they say that
women should not be given the ballot
because that would be allowing them
to take the mems place. In pioneer
times the making of bread and cloth
ing and food was considered just gen
eral housework, but now when the
men do it we call it manufacturing.
I cannot tell you how interesting the
OF those old time methods
OF doing daily work is, bat 1t is GER
tainly splendid.

NO ONE TO TAKE HOLD
OF A LECTURE COURSE

During the past week two repres-
entatives of two lyceum bureaus have
been in Belding for the purpose of
orranging a lecture and entertainment
course for next year. Just at present
there seems to be no person or or
ganization to take up the matter, the
hackers of the entertainment course
just closed having refused 10 put on a
course next year.
The people Of Belding ought to be-
gin TO consider how the city is TO have
a course next year.
There Is no doubt but what a course
should be given.

Some OF our citizens have suggested
the propriety of taking some action at
the school meeting on Monday evening
next regarding the erection OF a new
school house. The proposition is TO
raise a sufficient sum to erect a house
suitable TO the wants of the district in
three years-one-th being raised
each year-and that pending the last
taxation, or year after next, the house
be erected. The matter is one OF great
moment, both from considerations of
finance and the intellectual good of the
village and its vicinity. Doubtless
this question OF raising money for the
above purpose Will be brought up by
some one at the coming meeting. This
probability, together with the question
of organizing a graded school district,
will render the meeting OF much more
than ordinary Importance. and every
voter should make 1t a point TO be on
hand II is TO be hoped that the at
tendance will be general, for 'in the
multitude OF counsel there is safety"

MAURY COUNTY OPPOSES
POLYTECHNIC SCHOOL
County Court Asks Repeal of Graft
ing Scheme.

Columbia, Tenn, April 12.-After
quite an extended discussion, taken part
in by several members of the court,
County Superintendent Graham, City
Superintendent Harris and ]. l. Finney,
the County Court of Maury County this
morning unanimously passed a resolu-
tion to memorable the General Assem-
bly, of the State when it meets next
month to repeal so much of the Cooke
vile polytechnical act as appropriates
one-fourth or any part of the high
school funds of Tennessee.
The resolution, after reciting the gen.
eral provisions of the general education
oil and the approval of the court of the
existing system, contains the following:
BE it resolved, that the County Court
of Maury County, in quarterly session
assembled, does hereby most earnestly
memorialize the General Assembly,
when it shall again convene next month,
to repeal so much of the recent act as
appropriates one-fourth or any part of
the school fund of the State, created by
virtue of the general education law, in
aid of the so-called polytechnic school
at Cookeville.
Be it further resolved, that this court
does hereby record its most emphatic
opposition to any bill or act that will
change in any way the present school
system of Tennessee, as established by
the general education act"
