COOLIDGE NOT
TO BE VILLAGE
BACTERIOLOGIST

Word has been received by tho
Highland Park board OF health from
Dean l.. II. Coolidge. OF the Micht
gan Agricultural college. that he will
be unable to serve as bacteriologist
for the village health department as
the state institution has decided to
hold him.
When the matter Of a bacteriol.
ogist was first mentioned in High
land Park two years ago, II was de-
cided 10 combine duties OF the
health officer and bscteriologist with
Or. John Martin in charge. The
council. however decided recently
10 separate the two Offices The
health officer was given several ex.
ira duties and his salary increased
to $500 and an added salary OF
sl.700 was provided for the employ.
ment of a bacteriologist.
Several well known gacteriolo-
gists are now being considered for
the position and a recommendation
for appointment will be made at the
next meeting OF the council.

FORD co. WILL
PROTECT MEN
ON WOODWARD

After a complete investigation In
to the death OF Wolen,z Woljot, the
Ford employe who was killed Mon
day by street car. by Acting Cor
oner John Marshall. Of Highland
Park. the village has decided that
the Ford Motor Co. and the ID. L.
Il. must take some precautionary
measures 10 protect the lives Of
the men.
Justice Marshall has conferred
with officials of both companies, who
are willing to assist In the matter.
The Ford Motor Co. intends employ

chester and Woodward-aves., AZ all
hours OF the day.
The d. L. r. has been trying to
assist in the matter by keeping cars
on the d. L, r. property at the
barns during the rush periods. but
the Ford employees refuse TO cross
the street TO get cars. A suggestion
has been made TO the -. L. X. and
the Ford company to have booths
AZ the entrances 10 the Ford plant,
where tickets can be purchased and
registered. In the booths would be
turnstiles through which but one
man could pass to the car al a time.
This plan, II is believed, would en-
tirely do away with accidents, which
are happening nearly every day
now.

man bought that land in order TO
be near other rich men.
For several years the owners OF
home property ESPECIALLY those who
have been developing tracts) have
found the market extremely dull. A
great many foreclosures have result
ed, and many homes have been or
fered at a price actually lower than
the cost OF the land and the build
ings.
do not need TO say that in such
a time the home seeker finds the
real bargains. What I do want to
say ls that the time for securing
such a bargain Ia passing. We are
entering upon period Of unusual
prosperity time when the aver
age man is getting more than usual
for his work and management
Now is the time 10 buy such
home bargains az I have mentioned
before the demand begins to out
strip the supply.
In the home investment, as in
any other worth making, there IL a
time 10 buy and n time 10 sell.
When everybody seems anxious 10
sell land prices go tumbing), the
Wise man will buy. When people
are clamorous TO buy land prices
scoot upward. the wise man will
sell--to buy again at the next slump.
