A man II not without honor save In
his own Land. says the prophet. Here
again the silent thinking men prove
exceptions. Rich was highly esteemed
In Lapeer. his homo town; Warner
was held In warm regard In Farming
ton while Pingree had . following In
Detroit that stuck to him through one
OF the most bitter political lights OF
the states history. Sleeper follows
In the same respect.
1t was our godd fortune. to spend q
week end at Bad Axe recently and TO
learn and see the high regard In which
this man was held BY his own towns
people-this before any announce
ment of political candidacies. From
the lips Of many We heard warm
words Of praise for the many benevo-
lent things "Bert" Sleeper had done
for his friends. neighbors and the
town. These were told incidentally
In conversations covering various sub
tects, for, It seemed that whatever the
project somewhere In its history APP
peared the helping hand of this man
Sleeper. Few men can command the
respect, love and loyalty this man re-
ceives from the residents of his home
town. who invariably, without regard
to politics, religion or previous con-
ditions Of servitude" had naught but
kindly words for him. And when .
man has attained this, he has gained
more honor and glory than any gov
ernorship can possibly confer.
We hold no brief to speak for A. p.
Sleeper. Personally, we are but lit
tie acquainted with the man. OF his
record as q state senator and state
treasurer wa are familiar. In both
positions he made a record for honest
efforts. stability and worth. There
were no glaring innovations advanced
that caused his name to be en-
blazoned In the public prints; just
steady, businesslike application to the
duties of his Office, and we are not
sure that that Is not just the kind OF
service that would commend itself to
the people Of Michigan just at this
time.
Sleeper is q relief. In
business circles he has proved his
worth and ability; in public Office he
has shown honest application and in
private life he has won the love and
esteem Of his neighbors, criterion
of real worth. For was II not the
Bible that pointed out that the man
who ruled his own household, though
1t be with love, would be made ruler
over many.

on the perilous journey.
The car was driven 1000 feet on
temporary board incline to give il the
momentum necessary for its long leap
through the air. Albert Thomson,
one of the film actors, who was drtv-

speed of so miles an hour when il LETT
the incline built on the approach size
of the gulf.
A large crowd was on hand u watch
the performance and the majority Of
the onlookers predicted the expert

When the flying Maxwell shot off

his breath in suspense But the fore
