GOOD ROADS
Us. FOURTH Of
July SMOKE

An idea regarding the good roads
proposition was suggested to a Re
porter representative this morning
by one OF the leading business men.
This idea was: Grant Rapids has on
several occasions subscribed a
thousand dollars or more for a 4th
of July celebration. This celebration
was considered a means of bringing
people to this city was supposed to
set some advertising out of the cele-
bration Now, how much more senst
bic it would be instead of raising
he money just to hear the firecrack-
ers pop and see the balloon so up,
and have the people here for one
day. to use this money for the i'm
proyement Of good roads which
would bring people into the city at
all times. Not only bring the farmer
in to trade, but bring the tourists in
also.
The money spent on a Fourth of
July celebration goes up in smoke
in one day-the money spent in good
roads goes into something lasting.
and Of great benefit to the whole
community, citizens and farmers a,
like.

up this opportunity OF again putting
an fesITT11ds on map as the home
of a first class bard. There are
certainly enough first class musicians
II the city TO form the foundation of
a good band.
A Reporter representative was
told Saturday that money would be
forthcoming to pay a directors sal
AIRY if band was organized.
There is a very important reason
flor having a good band and for
having the organization OF that band
perfected very soon. That reason
is nothing more or less than the
State Convention OF the FraternaI
Order of Eagles which is to be held
in this city next year.
Other cities rfn the state will
come here with fine bands and it
should be the wish and desire every
citizen of Grand Rapids that we have
d band that will be asgood, if not
better than anF that will come to
the convention
We ali want to advertise Grand
Rapids, here is a good way 10 do
it-have a good band.

AND
JAMS STOLEN
LAST NIGHT
Sweet Toothed individuals Rob
Refrigerator at 0tt0's Phar-
macy.

Some one or more individuals
stole quantity of fruits, chocolate
etc, from a refrigerator at the rear
of the Otto Pharmacy last evening.
The fruits, etc. are used at the 50
da fountain.
The theft was discovered when
Leon Foley, the miXoIogist at the
fountain went to get fresh supply
of chocolate. He found that not only
had the chocolate disappeared, but
that several jars of jams and
fruits had also been taken.
The police traced the stolen arti-
cIes pretty closely but could not
find them or fasten the theft upon
any particular person.
The refrigerator from which the
fruits were stolen is just out
side the store at the rear.
It looks from here as though some
kids had become tired Of theiams
mother made and thought they would
like to sample the unusually good
stuff served at the Rexadl store
The sample seems to have pleased
so they took the whole consignment.
