She urged club women to take up the
matter of simple clothing for school
girls and simple street clothes for
both women and girls; also urged
club women to introduce home eco
nomics in as many schools in the
state as possible. Not all women
are home makers, but statistics show
that ninety-four out of every one
hundred women are home makers at
some time in their life Therefore,
they should be given chance to

F. |. SPENCER At
REST OLD CITIZEN
HAS PASSED AWAY

The funeral of Fred l.. Spencer
was held Sunday at two p. m, at the
Baptist church, preceded by a brief
prayer service at the residence. Rev.
w. A. Bliss spoke at these services
and the Rev. +. K. Branch of Ionia
spoke the last solemn words as he
was laid to rest in Highland Park
cemetery The bearers were: K. L..
Kendall, +. M. Parney, w. Fl. Wilson,
w. A. Wilder, /. l.. Hubbell and w.
p. Hetherington. Mrs. Luther Berry
and Clayton Knapp sang "Abide
With Me-" Nnd "Crossing the Bar"
The floral gifts were many and
beautiful, mute tributes of esteem to
one whom none knew but to respect
and honor.
Mr.. Spencer was born April IL,
1888 in Jackson county, Mich. When
twelve years of age he came to Ada,
Kent county, and the remainder of
his life .yas spent in the counties of
Kent, Montcalm and Ionia.
Much of his early business life
was spent in Greenville, where he
served as member of the school
board, as supervisor and as mayor.
On January 1, 1862 he was mar
ried at Spencer's Mill to Miss Judith
Sutton. To them were born two
daughters-Mrs. Chas. Ireland of
Ionia and Miss Mabel Spencer of
Grand Rapids. M M
Mr.. Spencer was the owner of the
water power at Smyrna from which
was developed the Spencer Electric
Light Co., and of which he has been
president from its beginning.
Since 1893 his home has been in
Belding, serving as supervisor for
a number of years.
His death occurred November 16,
1916, after a brief illness, although
he had been in failing health for
some time.
Mr.. Spencer had been a member of
the Baptist church for forty-s six
years, uniting with that body when
at Greenville. In the Belding church
he was a valued member of the Of
fetal board.
In his years of fine prosperity and
in his business reverses he was never
lacking in the breadth Of his charity,
but always true to his allegiances
as a Christian and faithful to the
principles of truth and justice. AS
a neighbor, as a husband and father
his kindness will never be forgotten.
A good man has gone from us and
To whom turn we but to the ineffable
Name?
Builder and maker thou of houses not
made with handsi
What, have fear Of change from thee
who art ever the same?
Doubt that thy power can fill the
heart that thy power expands ?
There shall never be one lost good!
What was shall live as before:
The evil is null, is naught, is silence
implying sound;
What was good, shall be good, with,
for evil. so much good more;
On the earth the broken arcs; in
the heaven, a perfect round.

Principal Thoughts in State FEEDER
ations of Womens Club Meetings
By Mrs. E. w. Little

The Tuesday evening session of the
State Federation of Women's Clubs
held at Jackson October 1926 was
opened by song by male quartet
and trio with violins accompanying,
followed by two of the best addresses.
of the week. Mrs. Albion Fellows
Bacon, housing expert of Indiana on
"The Home in Politics." and Mrs.
Kate Upson Clark of New York on
"The Mother of the Future"
Mrs. Bacon gave a clear-cut idea
of the relations of the home to
politics. She showed by convincing
argument how the two are inevitably
related and explained how the house,
keeper may be helped or hampered
by politics. Changes in the tariff
affect the workingman's salary which
in turn affects the housekeeper's al
lowance and regulates the cost of
life's necessities" she said. every
thing depends on the politicians, the
schools, the mother in the home,
health matters, sanitation in factor
les, hours when our boys and girls
shall and shall not work and even our
fishing is regulated by the politician.
1t is Mrs. Bacon's belief that to be a
good mother a woman must take an
interest in all those things which af-
feet homes and children, directly or
indirectly. She said, "Woman's place
is in the home primarily, but the
home is in politics also, else / would
not be here tonight. My own home
and children drove me into politics" !"
1t was the condition of the slums
that Mrs. Bacon discussed most free
ly, awful conditions which few of us
realize exist. "Many tenements," !"
she said, "are without sufficient
light, no water, or sewer connections.
These conditions cannot be bettered
and these homes cannot be made
more sanitary until housing laws are
passed. / spent four years trying to
pass a housing law in Indiana, but
finally succeeded, and hundreds Of
tenements have been torn down or
condemned until reconstructed to
come within the law" W
Immediately following Mrs.
Bacon's interesting address we heard
Mrs. Kate Upson Clark on "The
Mother of the Future. She said,
The mothers Of the future must be
good mothers, physically strong and
well educated. There is no surer sign
of old age than comparing the past
with the present and despite all COM
parisons there never were so many
and such good mothers as there are
now, and no better children. The
mother of the future will be always
moral and religious, will teach her
children the Bible and have religion
in the home. The mother should
know about political affairs, should
always keep posted on the big events

WAS EIGHTY-TWO
YEARS OLD THIS WEEK

Time has dealt kindly with ]. W..
Howe, known to everyone within a
radius of twenty miles of this city
as Uncle "Wid." He was eighty-two
years old Monday and undoubtedly
there is not man in the county that
wears a broader smile or a more
contented look than he has all this
week. He is at peace with all man
kind and talks of living untit he
reaches the hundred mark on life's
dial.
"Wid's" birthplace was Sandy
Creek, N. Y, and he came into this
vicinity more than fifty-six years
ago. In his palmy days he could do
the best job of putting on mortar of
any mason around here and there
are many of the older houses in this
vicinity carrying the mortar he
spread. "Wid" was full of music
from childhood and from an old
brass kettle of his grandmother's he
drummed off his first tune, then made
fife out of poplar. bark and after
wards took to the violin. The old
fiddle is his strong suit and he has
one that has stuck by him through
thick and thin for a half century.
Hundreds have been delighted with
it's notes and thousands have danced
after his music. Many home has
been made happy when he has drop
ped in for a visit of few days or
TO spend the evening. His friends
hope he may live to celebrate his
hundredth anniversary and play the
old tune, Gin the sweet bye-and-bye."

PAUL MASON WAS
THE BROTHERHOOD
SPEAKER MONDAY
GAVE AN ILLUSTRATED Lee
TURE ON THE CANADIAN
ROCKIES

Members of the brotherhood of the
Congregational church and their
friends were well pleased with the
illustrated talk on the Canadian
Rockies, given by Paul Mason of
Reed City Monday evening. Mr..
Mason limited the mountains de-
scribed to the ones adjacent to the
Canadian Pacific railroad immediate
ly east of Vancouver.
AS the views were thrown on the
canvas Mr.. Mason told of the forma-
tions, interesting incidents connected
with the scenes and the successes OF
man in analyzing them. He classed
the Rockies as the grandest noun
tains in the world, outclassing the
mountains Of Switzerland in their
beauty. The colorings in the Rock
les were to his mind the most wond-
erful in the world.
Preliminary to his talk Mr.. Mason
dwelt at some length on the past ac-
complishments of man in the world,
in the way of inventions, engineering
feats, and ability to master the sup
posedly impossible things. After
enumerating scores of mans past
achievements he compared them with
the work of the Great Creator, the
ruler of the entire universe. These
details led up to his final discussion
of the grandeur of the Canadian
Rockies.
Before the talk of the evening was
given President Geo. K. Wagner call
ed the brotherhood together for cleo
tion of officers. A nominating COM
mittee composed of Byron F. Brown,
A. j. Blair and Henry Smith was ap-
pointed by the president. The men
retired and soon brought out the
= names of G. F. Smith for president
Supt. J. A. Langston for vice-presi-
dent and G. p. Kimberly of secretary
satisfied by a unanimous vote of the
brotherhood.

TO PROHIBIT MANU.
FACTURE OF LIQUOR

A motion that. the manufacture of
intoxicating liquor in Great Britain
should be prohibited will be made in
the. house of commons, according to
notice given by group of members
after the speech last week of Walter
Runciman, president of the board of
trade, on the food situation.
The members of the group, their
notice stated, will move that this
prohibition should be imposed in view
of Mr.. Runciman's grave statement
respecting the shortage of corn, su-
gar, and other foodstuffs.
The sentiment in favor of abolish
ing the liquor traffic is getting to be
worldwide.
