NEIGHBORHOOD NEWS

Greenville-The hospital board of
lady managers feel much gratified
over the tidy sum realized by them
from serving the Republican club
banquet. Their total receipts amount
ed to 2S3.50. This amount was clear,
as they were able to solicit food and
money sufficient to cover the total ex-
pense of serving the banquet. In ad-
dition to this sum they received
gratiuties from pleased participators
bringing the sum realized to nearly
$500. A portion of this amount will
doubtless be used to maintain the
cost of the free bed, which has al
ready been supported by the ladies for
several years, the rest to be used
where most needed.
The board wishes to take this OPP
portunity of publicity, thanking all
those friends who by their gifts of
supplies and money made the under
taking possible and successful.

THINK BELDING
Is TO FINNICKY

Regarding the sale of deer to Beld-
ing the Ionia Sentinel says:
"The herd of elk and deer which
for number of years has been one
of the interesting features at the
state hospital has been disposed of
recently with the exception of the
two large bucks. The herd will not
be replaced as the keeping of the ami
mails did not prove to be success in
number Of ways and the two ami
mails which remain will be allowed to
pass the remainder Of their natural
lives there after which there will be
no more deer, if the present plans are
not altered. Part of the herd went to
Bedding and part to the state. Word
from Bedding is to the effect that
the city does not know what to do
with the two deer received there as
the board of health has objected to
their presence in the heart of the city
for sanitary reasons. If Bedding has
nothing less sanitary than a couple of
deer in the city it is indeed fortunate.

A continuous rod-casting machine
has been developed at Newark, N. j.,
which will bring about radical
change in the rod industry. Instead
of making rods of lead, zinc, brass,
copper, aluminium and steel by roll
ing process as has been done hereto
fore, the hot liquid metal is trans
ferred directly from the crucibles to
an endless chain of mold blocks in
the machine. The rod comes out con-
tinuously as long as the molten metal
is poured in.

Attributed to Crop Failure

Cadillac-The Bank of Harrietta,
privately owned by a company, of
which Claud w. Barry is president
and principal stakeholder, failed to
open for business last week. The in
stitution filed a voluntary trust mort
gage, President Barry, who is post
master, and one of the leading mer-
chants of Harrietta, turned over his
store to the bank trustee.
Crop failure is believed to be the
cause of the banks difficulties. Stock
holders assert they will pay one hun
cents on the dollar.

Bean People Profit by Ruling

Rockford-The ruling of the inter-
state commission regarding the ship
ping out of the state of unpicked
beans has worked just right for the
growers, shippers and pickers of the
state. The growers have realized
more money by the ruling; the ship
pers have the crop more under con-
troll and the pickers are reaping har-
vest because all the beans have to be
picked right here where they are
grown. This town has something like

\ WE'LL COOKED CHARACTER.

\ WE'LL COOKED CHARACTER.
What's that?" 1 curiously asked,
pointing TO a queer looking zinc box,
with openings of various sizes.
That's a fireless cooker" replied
the clerk.
Then. noticing my puzzled express
sion, she exclaimed; You put heated
bricks into these places, and your food
Ms cooking while you go about your
pleasure or business. A thermometer
tells you when you have sufficient
heat and everything is graded &C
cording to quantity and quality. You
just put the cover on and nothing of
the flavor Of the food gets away, or is
burned"
1t was a big jump from the base
ment Of that department store to
quotation from Emerson, yet my
imagination scaled those heights in
one bound, and 1 thought of what he
said about character.

Fireless cooking, going on all the

the way we meet things in life that
are unpleasant and difficult, and the
pleasures we choose. We can not love
one kind Of life and expect TO find
progress in another. We must cult
vate everything that will generate
heat TO perfect the character we want.
great character is not found all at
once.
The first essential is to know ones
self, and the value we put on ourselves.
Then, if we exercise and qualify our
selves, we are bound TO arrive at the
highest. We have been given the
powers of discrimination how to dis
tinguish between what is right and
what is wrong; what is ours and what
is not ours.
1t is how we use these advantages,
how we make the best Of what is in
our power that generates the heat that
is going to make our character. Then
all we need is to be careful that our
courage and energy is not tempered
by worry and fear that the character
is not coming out well cooked.
