FLORIDA ORANGES

A. A. jerks and family of Fair
plains will revel in Florida oranges
for some time to come, as the result
of Christmas present received last
week.
His nephew, Mark r. jerks, who is
working in Eustis, Florida for the

sent his uncle box of IL dozen extra
fine ones and they came just in time
to grace the Christmas table.
His nephew, who left here about
three years ago, is basking in the
sunny climes of that state, picking
and shipping oranges from the big
orchards. Every orange is nicely
wrapped in tissue paper, bearing the
brand of the company and the slogan,
"Our Hobby" Mark says no more
of Michigan's blizzards for him.

IIChief Justice McCulloch said he and

official action of signing It, which ap'
proved it."
The three Justices voting to affirm
the lower courts decision based their
decision on the grounds that oral evt-

Of the record, which shows vetoing
Of the bill,
In concluding an opinion the ma
jority Of the court said:
"The legislative record shows that
the bill in question was not approved,
but was vetoed, and therefore we do
not undertake to review and pass
upon the questions Of fact about
which the governor and other wit
nesses testified upon the occasion Of
his writing his name and the words
which appear upon the bill, The in.
dorsements now on the bill show that
It was disapproved and vetoed March

tries upon the journal Of the House OF

which was the house in which II orig,
mated, with message showing his
objections thereto, and this message
was entered at large upon the journal
Of the House,
Looking only to those records
which the constitution provided should
be made and kept for the purpose Of

clude that the bin was not approved,

"SeIf.DeniaI Week."

Presbyterians throughout the
country have been asked to deny
themselves at least one luxury
during the week beginning next
Sunday and to contribute the
amounts thus saved toward a
fund of $3.50, 900 which is needed
to pay the church debt. The re-
quest for the observance of
"self-denial week" has been sent
out by the Rev. DR.. Maitland
Alexander of Pittsburgh, moder-
ator of the Presbyterian General
Assembly. 1t is stated by the
heads of the church organizations
and mission boards that because
of the war and general business
depression there is not a church
body that has not suffered and
nearly all have closed the year
with a debt. The Presbyterian
board have fallen behind to the
extent of $430,000.
