TRUNK LINE ROAD
THROUGH BELONG
IS NOT PROBABLE

The matter of locating the route Of
the proposed trunk line road from De-
troit to Chicago is now in the hands Of
the roads and bridges committee of
the state senate. 1t will probably be
reported out within a few days.
The original route was proposed
through Belding from Ionia to Grand
Rapids but it has developed that this
course would necessitate extra mileage
and hence is not considered feasible.
one of the proposed routes between
Ionia and Grand Rapids is through
Saranac, connecting with the present
state reward road at Lowell. The 9TH
er is a course passing through Potter's
corners situated four miles north of
Saranac. In either event a branch
road is proposed 10 extend from Ionia
TO Howard City passing through Beld-
ing. The latter road would probably
not be built until after the main road
had been completed.
Belding citizens are interested I'm
securing the road through Potters
corners as it would thus bring it four
miles nearer than If ii passed through
Saranac and at the same time be just
as direct a road through from Ionia
TO Grand Rapids.
Local citizens have consulted with
Representative Warner on the matter
and he is consulting with Senator
Powell. Belding is certainly entitled
to consideration i'm the establishing OF
the road
one OF the plans of the committee
now acting on the bill is TO leave the
selection OF the route to the state high
way commissioner and proper county
authorities in territory where salts
factory route cannot be previously de-
termined at the time OF building the
road.

PRES. GRAwN GIVES
FRIDAY TALK FULL Of
GREAT INTEREST

President Grawn of Mt. Pleasant
Normal talked TO the students and
visitors at the high school last Friday
afternoon. AS preliminary TO his re-
marks Pres. Grawn drew a word pic
ture of a cartoon, which he had seen
in a paper several years ago. The
center of the cartoon showed Uncle
Sam, dressed in his usual patriotic
suit. To Uncle Sans right was
school boy with a bundle of books.
dangling from a strap over his should
er. To the left OF the central figure was
a mechanic. with his leather apron
and his usual tools. All three We're
marching along at a lively pace The
school boy represents the twenty mil
lion school children of America. The
laboring man represents the fourteen
million workmen and wage earners Of
the United States. Now the signific-
ance Of the picture is embodied in the
words below, These are my standing
armies"
THE only standing army we need"
said Pres. Grawn, lis "A larger and bet
ter school system and larger and
better workshop and shop conditions.
Now this picture was shown about
been occupying a position of advan-
tage and could have seen this mighty
army on the right OF Uncle Sam the
school children OF America, passing by
you in grand review. What would
you have seen? You would have seen
boys and girls from England Scotland,
Ireland, Wales Norway. Denmark,
Germany, France, Spain, Austria, Rus
sia, China, Japan, Australia and, in
fact, you would have seen boys and
girls from all countries of the world.
They are marching along with Uncle
Sam and are composing the great
schools of the commonwealth.
Let us look at the great army and
what il means TO the country. What
is the influence and what will be the
influence of this army? What will il
be intellectually in the coming years?
Will we have good citizens, who will
be capable of making sound and just
laws for the country and carrying the
great work OF progress along? We
pour this mass Of children, coming
from every country of the globe into
the common schools of America they
come out common homnge7 eous
mass which we call the American citi-
zen. They are all loyal to the Ameri-
can flag, although they speak a multi
tude Of tongues. You are all familiar
with the inscription on our currency
'E Pluribus Unum. What does il
mean? Just this, from any one How
can it be better typited than in look
ing at this great mass OF children?

A SCHOOL SAVINGS
BANK SYSTEM TO
Be |NAUGURATED

A regular meeting of the Board Of
Education was held last Friday even
ing at the Board of Education room
in the city hall. 1t was voted TO allow
the students from the Orleans school
equal credits with students doing simi-
lar work in the local schools. Students
with tenth grade credits in the Orleans
school will be admitted TO the eleventh
grade in the Belding schools without
examination hereafter.
The board voted to try out a
school savings bank system, details of
the plan to be left to Superintendent
Osborne. IL was also decided to have
a children's garden association start
ed. with prizes and an exhibit at some
time during the summer.
Supt. Osborne made the following
suggestions on a physical examination
of the pupils of the school:
II have discussed with the physi-
clans and dentists of the city from
time To time during the year the need
of physical and dental examination Of
the pupils of the school. This work
is carried on in nearly all the cities
at the present time with very benef-
ciai results. In a great many cities

physician and a paid dentist, but in
good many other cities especially in
smaller cities, the work is done free
by the physicians and dentists. The
physicians and dentists here seem en-
tirely willing to assist in this kind of
work. In fact, we have, during several
months past sent children to the fam
lily physician If we thought they had

just recently been discussing the mat
ter with the dentists and they have
volunteered their services TO make the
dental examinations. BY carrying on
the work along these lines, l think the
work can be accomplished with no
expense, or at least with very little
expense to the board Of education.
feel, however. that l should like to
have the board authorize a work Of
this kind before organizing the work
much further ! ought TO add per
haps that i'm this kind of work the sole
purpose is TO furnish information of
the conditions, and not to carry on
medical or dental treatments. The
matter OF treatments is left entirely
20 the parents. For insance, III the
examination Of the child should deter

ported to the parents and il is left to
them whether or not they are - get
the glasses. This would apply in any
other kind of case. This plan has
been worked out in n good many
cities.
Although, as stated above the larger
cities find paid physician and a paid
dentist more satisfactory I think this
plan will work very satisfactorily in
Belding as all the physicians and
dentists are entirely willing to CO.
operate in the work"
The board expressed itself as fully
in accord with the superintendent's
suggestions IL not carried TO extremes.
The only other action taken, by the
board was the allowing OF bills.

(. CHAPPLE & COMPANY
ENTER IMPLEMENT FIELD

Il. Chapple and company have taken
the agency for the Walter A. Wood
line Of farm machinery, also the
Moline line Of farm implements These
two great lines of farm machinery are
known the world over as being the
very best that can be made.
The Chapple company will also add
other farm necessities in the imple-
ment line so that they can supply the
farmer with anything that he wants.
They will have a man on the road to
vistit the farmers and supply all inn
plement needs.
The Chapple company points with
pride to the manure spreader in the
Walter a. Wood line. Henry Ford
uses 20 of these spreaders on his big
farm.
The Walter a. Wood line was for
merly sold through an Orleans agency.
This latter agency has been taken up
and all the Walter A. Wood machinery
i'm this section will be sold from Beld-
ing.
Everyone knows that the Chapple
company can buy at the very lowest
prices. This enables them to sell at
a low retail price.
The entrance OF the Chapple com
pany into the implement field is an
important piece OF news in local trade
circles.

THINKS SUPERVISORS
NEED BETTER SALARY

If bill which has been introduced
into the senate by Senator Paul be-
comes law, Approximately twenty
hundred SUPERVISORS in the state will
hereafter receive five dollars a day in
stead OF three. The average time de-
voted to supervisors in the state dur
ing a year is figured at approximately
twenty-five days,
In explaining the bill Senator Paul
states that many times supervisors are
compelled 10 sit days when they re-
ceive no pay whatever. and that the
three dollars day is inadequate.
