year broken all records for popular
ity. Thousands upon thousands
more have taken to the beaches since
the summer of '16 set in than did
last year. The bathing habit seems
to have gTipped the whole town.
In fact, the unexpected big rush to
the water has caught a big majority
of the beaches off their guard and
they are not half prepared to handle
the crowds that turn out. Probably
the best exception in the city is the
new Clarendon municipal beach. At

fair treatment to those who pay a

would be greatly appreciated by the
bathers. Locker, suit, checking and

At North Shore beach the same
stunt Of giving out bathing suits in
place Of towels has been worked sew

handle 10000 bathers.
That's a lot of people, but the city
bathhOuse is likely to have to make
good on that claim most any time.
So far things have gone along nice
ly at Clarendon. The only criticism
that batheTs seem to make is that
two people should be giving out bath
ing suits instead of one, especially
when two ticket windows are work
ing on the mems side. There has
been no criticism of the girls side.
At Wilson beach they need towels.
Several times recently bathers have
been told to get their towels when
they come out of the water instead OF
when they paJ their money and get
their suit. And then when a whole
flock Of soaking wet folks surge up
to the towel window they have been
given old bathing suits to use as

it is good logic in Saginaw county, and
yet Mr.. Seegmiller is singularly silent
about it here. We think it only fair
to the voters, however, to inform them
that Mr.. Seegmiller believes that they
should ego out and elect the home
man.
If, however, the voter believes there
are larger interests than local pride
to be served and that it is better to
be represented by an able and infuen-
tial man than by one who is merely a
home man we would advise that he
follow his judgment, and it ought not
to be a difficult matter to choose be-
tween the two candidates: Mr.. Ford
ney with his fine ability, his long eX-
perience, his standing in congress, the
almost certain prospect that he will
become chairman of the ways and
means committee with the tremend-
Gus influence that position will give,
and Mr.. Seegmiller.
Mr.. FOrdney, has long and ably
represented this district at Washing
ton and he has always fearlessly
championed the things he believed to
be for the best interests of his coun-
try. He has been at all times open
and frank. His constituents have
known at every moment exactly where
he stood and have respected him for
it. He holds their entire confidence.
Moreover, his long experience in con-
gress, has given him familiarity
with national affairs, knowledge of
the nation IS business and a power at
Washington that are of the utmost
value to the country as well as to his
own district. He is man Of fine
character, able, conscientious, fearless
and open. He is the type of man who
should be kept at Washington and The
Courier-Herald has every confidence
that the voters of his district will see
to that.

One argument that w. A. Seegmil-

congress in place of Congressman
Fordney he apparently overlooks in
his addresses in Saginaw county, al
though no doubt it is used with fine
effect in his home county. In the
Owosso Argus we find a paid adver-
tiscment advising the voters that
Shiawassee county has a chance to be
represented at Washington, that cit
means something to be represented at

should lay aside partisan feeling and
go out and elect the home man." If
