PRIZE WINNERS IN
IRONTON CORN AND
POTATO SHOW

In spite of the unfavorable weather,
the corn and potato show at Ironton
Grange hall, Nov. 18th, was well at
tended and much interest was aroused
by the contests. Members of the Char
levoix Commercial Assn attended in a
body, coming up the lake by boat. Mr..
r. o. Bisbee Of East Jordan drove up
thru the storm and declared that the
show was well worth coming to see.
There were thirty-one entries in the
corn contest and ten entries in the
potato contest. The entries, as a rule,
were very good. Many of the contest
ants, however, were boys and girls
with no experience in preparing ex-
hibits for show. AS the judges explain
ed the reasons for awarding the prizes
as they did, these young farmers will
be in n much better position to select
prize-winning samples another year.
The educational value of contests of
this sort is the best reason for promot-
ing and supporting them. Parents
who took no part in this contest, nor
encouraged their children to compete,
missed fine opportunity for interest
ing the boys and girls in the worlds
biggest business-the big business of
modern farming.
In the corn contest Breezy Point
farm won first place in the yellow dent
class with Minn. l3. Emil Mason Sec
ond with Reid's yellow dent. Mrs.
Earl Clark won the special prize for
the best single ear with fine sample
OF Early Rochester.
In the white dent class Edward
Hammond won first place. Mary Weldy
second. Oakley Saunders showed the
best single ear.
Ole Lyngklip won first prize in the
white cap dent class. Joe Courier
took second place and also showed the
best single ear.
In the pop corn class Willard Bird
won first with White Rice and Harold
MacMulkin second Lillas Flanders
took first prize with black pop corn
and Oral Lewis second.
In the potato contest, early varieties,
Jerry Saunders took the first prize
with Early Six Weeks and Geo. Mac
Mulkin second with Early White Rose.
With late varieties, russell class,
Breezy Point farm won first place with
Petoskey Russets and Lillas Flanders
second with same variety. In the white
potatoes, Edward Hammond easily won
first prize with Rural New Yorker No.
4. and Vaughan Orvis got second with
Noxall
The corn was judged by B. j. Hol-
comb of East Jordan. Messrs. Joe
Courier, John Mason and Ole Lyngklip
awarded the prizes on potatoes.

LEWIS-PORTER NUPTIALS

The home of Mr.. and Mrs. w. P.
Porter was the scene of wedding festivi-
ties Wednesday evening when their
daughter, Flora NJ, became the bride of
Morgan j. Lewis, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
E. A. Lewis of this city.
The ceremony took place in the pres
ence of a number of invited friends and
relatives at eight o'clock. Rev. R. s.
Sidebotham, pastor of the Presbyterian n
church, was the officiating clergyman,
using the ring service. The couple
were attended by John and Miss Esther
Porter-brother and sister of the bride.
Miss Marjorie Hoyt presided at the
piano, rendering the wedding march.
The home was beautifully decorated
with roses, carnations and chrysan-
themums, and the bride carried a
shower bouquet of lilies of the valley.
Following the ceremony the young
couple left on wedding trip and after
this will be "At Home" at Beloit, Wis,
where the groom has fine position as
head of one of the departments of a
large manufacturing concern.
Among the out-of-town guests at the
wedding were Bert Lewis of Atlantic
City, N. j., Miss Eva Lewis of Bad Axe,
Miss Pearl Lewis of Grand Rapids, and
Miss Esther Porter who is attending
Oberlin College.

Making Things Hum in Rome.

The Romans Ind three recognized
methods of applauding-the bombus,
the imbrices and the testate. The word
bombus did not carry any allusion to
explosives. On the contrary, this form
of applause was the most decorous, in
asmuch as it consisted merely of
humming or buzzing noise. Thus in
way the Romans were the first Ito
make things hum" in public assembly.
The bombus was not the chief feature
the Romans had to offer in the way of
applause. The imbrices meant a dem
onstration made with the hollow of the
hands. The testae meant the striking
together of the flat portions of the
hands. From this we may conclude
that the Romans clapped, but there is
no certainty on this point

Carnegie Library
Is. Assured
East Jordan
After Years of Debating, East
Jordan is to Finally Have
Public Library

The mills of the gods grind slowly,
but East Jordan has been slow er yet in
reaching a decision on the public
library proposition. Without question
a majority of our citizen tax payers
were in favor of library but for years
we had small percentage who were
opposed to the proposition and it has
taken years to have these people see
things in their proper light. For the
past six or eight years w. p. Porter OF
the East Jordan Lumber Co., has gener-
ously offered to donate fine building
lot on the corner of Main and Williams
street as a site for a library building.
In addition to this. A. H. Frost of the
East Jordan Lumber Co., has recently
come forward with an offer to donate
Five Hundred Dollars per year for
period of five years for the maintenance
of such an institution.
The Carnegie Corporation make us
liberal proposition and easy to meet.
They will furnish the City of East Jor-
dan $4,000 to erect free public library
providing the city will pledge ten per
cent of this amount per year for main
tenance. With building donated,
site donated, and $500 per year for five
years donated for maintenance, East
Jordan could not afford to pass the
opportunity by. A petition to our City
Commission asking them to accept the
offer, was presented that body, signed
by practically all Of our taxpayers. AS
will be seen in the proceedings of the
Commission published elsewhere in
this issue, the matter was taken up and
passed. East Jordan will undoubtedly
have its long-needed public library
within year.
