the evening.
Among the speakers will be Sena-
tor Townsend, Former Ambassador
Thomas J. O'Brien of Grand Rapids

THANKSGIVING DINNER
CHEAP AT HOTEL BElDlNG
Manager Dunham Assures Guests A
Big Feast at a Popular Price
Read the Menu

Manager Dunham of Hotel Belding
announces big Thanksgiving dinner
at seventy-five cents that cannot be
duplicated for the price in any home.
The menu, which will be found COM
plete on page five, includes turkey
with all the viands necessary to make
the meal a veritable feast. Everyone
who possibly can should avail them
selves of this unusual chance to dine
on the best of the land. If you are to
have company take your friends to
the hotel for dinner, without the irk-
some task of fussing and fretting over
a big home dinner, and dish washing,
then enjoy the day with them. 1t is
cheaper than at home on that day.
There is one requirement made by
the hotel management. They must
know that you are coming, not later
than Monday evening, November 22.
Just call the hotel by telephone or
write the management that you are
coming and a grand dinner will be
waiting you. Read the menu on page
five.

WEBSTER A
CAREFUL OFFICIAL

At various times there have been
criticisms of probate officials who
have allowed estate funds to be paid
into court. In this connection the
advisability of the course pursued in
Ionia county is apparent. In no in
stance and under no circumstance has
the local judge consented to the pay
ing into court of funds belonging to
estates. 1t has rather been insisted
that such funds be kept in the GUS
tody of administrators under bonds
generally in double the amount of the
money coming into their hands. In
this way there has not been the loss
of a single dollar to an estate
through the default Of an administra-
tor. Judge Webster has told ad-
ministrators desiring to leave funds
in his care that he would no more
consent to such course than he would
assume the care of livestock or other
property belonging to an estate. The
responsibility should always be upon
an administrator who has been placed
under suitable bonds.

BARN AND OTHER
FARM BUILDINGS
PROPERTY LOSS INCLUDED THE
CAMP EQUIPMENT OF THE
COUNTY Y. NJ. C.. A.

The barn and adjoining buildings
on the farm of Theodore Leach at
the east end of Long Lake burned
late last Wednesday afternoon, and
were totally destroyed together with
contents. MIR. Leach had recently
sold his farm and on that day had
conducted an auction at the farm
selling the personal property. 1t is
believed that some one of the per-
sons who attended the auction threw
down cigar stub where it later de-
veloped into the blaze that burned the
buildings. They were insured for
$1,000 About 20 tons of hay that
had been sold at auction were burned.
The residence was saved.

OF O'BRYON
MADE HIM VICTIM
Of A GOOD JOKE
WAS REQUIRED TO RE-ASSEM-

IN HOME

Following their attendance at the
regular melting of the Supper Club at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Herbert An
gell last Monday evening and later a
trip to the Pythian Sisters meeting in
the X. of p. hall, Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
O'Bryon were greeted with pleasant
surprise on their arrival home.
Some of their friends had preceded
them to their home and had removed
all the furnishings from their sleep
ing chamber When they arrived
home Mr.. O'Bryon went down cellar
to arrange the fire for the night. He
found the head and springs Of their
bed down there. Soon after this Mrs.
OBryon called down the cellar way
and asked where all the furnishings
from their room had gone. When she
was told the springs and head to the
bed were down cellar she began to APP
preciate the fact that someone had
made them the victims of a practical
joke. Frank and Mrs O'Bryon then
held an investigation. They found
the mattress, footpiece, pillows and
covers stored in various parts of the
house. 1t took them quite a while to
assemble their bed and make themsel-
YES comfortable for the night.

Club did not 90 to the Pythian Sisters

LIGHT PLANT At
ORLEANS CREDIT
TO TOWNS PEOPLE
II. S. NODDINS HAS A NEW
AND UP-TO-DATE ELECTRIC
PLANT THERE

One of the best improvements ever
brought to Orleans is the electric
light plant that has just been INSTALL
ed by r. S. Noddins. The plant is
housed in a new building in the rear
of his property and is abundantly able
to furnish Orleans with plenty Of
light and possibly power if needed.
The plant has been in operation less
than a month and yet it is enthus-
iastically received as a boon TO the
city.
The work of installing the plant
was largely done by Leo Benson of
Belding. He assisted in getting the
kerosene engine in place and after
getting it started he spent consider
able time in getting it regulated so
that the different temperatures it at
tains in running does not effect its
speed. The generator and switch
board were also placed in position by
Mr.. Benson.
The plant is operated by a fifteen
horsepower kerosene engine. 1t is
one of the latest models and very ac-
curately timed. The water necessary
for cooling it is pumped from els
tern under the floor of the power
house, and after passing the engine
is returned to the cistern by an over
head pipe. The generator is a ten
X. w. 110-125 volts, four pole. 1t
was purchased from the Ft. Wayne
Electric company. The quality of
light produced is of the very best.
There is plenty of current or at least
plenty of it could be made to serve
all the families of the town with good
lights.
Mr.. Noddins is also very liberal in
his charges for the electric service;
the minimum meter rate charged is
Sl.00 per month, beyond the minimum
a rate of 10 cents is charged Over
twenty-five per cent of the homes In
the town are now being lighted by
electricity, and more are being added
each week. Within two or three
weeks street lights will be placed in
all the streets Of the town. These
will be of strong candlepower and
hung from wires over the middle of
the streets. At least eight lights
will be placed at the beginning. They
will cost the townpeople only two
dollars per month each. Part Of this
expense is being borne by the prosper
Gus farmers living in the vicinity of
Orleans. One farmer has contributed
twenty-five cents week for the
cause.
Orleans is fortunate in having a
man such as Mr. Noddins to be will
ing to place a plant of this kind
within its borders. All such i'm
provements will add to the towns
growth and prosperity.

PAVING WORK MAY
Be COMPLETED
WITHIN TIME LIMIT
ALL STREETS WILL BE OPEN
FOR TRAFFIC IN FEW
DAYS

Weather conditions and all other
conditions point to successful com
pletion of the paving work in Belding
this fall. The work was begun on
the thirtieth day of August. 1t was
considered by Contractor A. II.
Prange, to be ninty day job, and
indications are that he will have all
Of the streets ready for acceptance
by the council within the time limit.
At several times it has appeared that
the work has Jagged, and yet the
workmen on the job claim that they
have been very fortunate in having
the work as a whole, on such a large
job in a small city, move along so
nicely.
The latter part of the week the
streets as far west as Pearl street,
will be opened for use. The streets
east of Pleasant street were opened
last Saturday afternoon. Persons de-
string to use the streets in the busi-
ness section will have free range
within another week on all the
streets.
Not another city in Michigan, or
any other state, has nicer streets now
than has Belding. Some of them may
have cost more, but they are no better
adapted to the needs of the city than
are the present streets to the needs of
Belding. Once more it is an evidence
of Belding people doing things well
when they do them. An invitation
is extended to all rural residents to
come to Belding and use the fine new
streets and get acquainted with the
Belding people, who have made the
streets possible, and also who have
assisted in building good approaches
to the city on the main roads.
Engineer John Finan is preparing
the levels and taking the survey on
Bridge street in anticipation of an i'm
provement on that street. The work
is being done according to a contract
between the l.. A. Boulay company
and the city officials. When the i'm
provement is made the money paid to
the Boulay company will apply as
part payment on the engineers fees.

GEORGE HETCHLER
LOST OLD BETSEY

George Hetchler believes in treat
ing dumb animals humanely. His
faithful old mare, Betsy" contracted
throat trouble few months ago and
it bothered her so she could not swal-
low grass, hay or grain. George
thought lot of the animal which had
been one of his best friends for the
past ten years and he tried his best to
relieve the trouble, but in spite of his
efforts she grew thin. Horse jock
eys tried TO trade for her or purchase
her, but Mr.. Hetchler refused, saying
that he would never allow her to be
kicked and cuffed around the country
by cruel drivers. Recently he con-
cluded there was no help for her and
rather than see her linger and starve
to death he had her killed and given
a decent burial on his place. Some
one altered him a dollar for the old
mares hide but this he refused also.
In Mr.. Hetchler's crippled condition
he misses the old Betsy" who seem
ed to know everything he said to her
very much.
