On Little West Side Park.

Through the efforts Of Falkland

Commission, another beauty spot will
be added to the city's many pretty

south Of the w. J. Conway residence,
into a sort of park
Time after time, stakes have been

which to build it up. The park will be
sodded and it is possible shrubbery

Paper company of Grand Rapids has
just made another large purchase Of
lands and fiowage rights in the Wis
consin river valley, following a num-
Der of such purchases made recently.

BERRY PICKERS
.DO MUCH DAMAGE

The farmers of the town of Grant
have no objection to the hundreds of
berry pickers that at this time of the
year cover the township, destroying
six quarts of berries to every one
quart picked. These same farmers,
however, have expressed an ernest de-
sire to talk to some of the pickers
Cor pikers' with a base ball bat or
the business end of a shot gun, es-
pecially those whose pea-sized, brain
prevents them from thinking as we'll
as those who seem to think that gates
and fences were erected for them to
destroy. AS one example of many,
party of motorists took down about
five rods of fence so as to enable them
to drive their Ford" sixty feet near
er a patch of berries, and after pick
ing three or four quarts departed
first ascertaining that the fence was
down. A herd of cattle being kept in
this field strayed through the gap in
the course of a few hours and after
destroying about a acres of a corn
field, gorged themselves on rye and
clover, and the immediate summons
Of a veterinarian only prevented
further loss of several hundred dol
lars worth of valuable cattle.
Farmers can shoot hawks, and kill
brainless berry picker is a pest worse
than all combined, including potato
bugs.

tation Of "Amstractist Color Music
at Orchestra hall with the Chicago
symphony orchestra tonight is sue
cess Berger's idea has the futurist
painting fad faded. Berger says he
has discovered the missing link be-
tween music and painting. TO prove
it tonight, he will play two compost
tons he has woven from a couple Of
abstractist paintings. The paintings
are known as THE Wedding March"
and Moods" They were so full Of
color, Berger said after seeing them
at a local exhibit, that he decided to
set them TO music. After he COM
posed them, he found the result SO
daring that only an orchestra, he de-
clared, could give them worthy inter
probation. Every instrument pos
sesses a tonal color peculiarly its
own" said Berger today, and some

be obtained, according TO the differ
