Mt. Morris Votes Water Works

At the special election held in Mt.
Morris last Saturday to vote on prop
osition to bond the village for 81, 800
for the purpose of sinking wells pre-
liminary to the construction of water
works system, the proposition carried
by vote of 1876 to 30-nearly five to
one. Among the voters were forty
five ladies'. The wells will Immediately
be sunk and inasmuch as the water pro-
duced from deep wells in that locality
is generally soft, the convenience of the
system will be greatly enhanced. An
engineer will now be engaged to pre-
pare plans for the complete water
works system, which will come before
the people of the village for ratification
at later date. Under the plans which
are being considered it is said the sys-
tenn will be paying proposition from
the start. Mt. Morris now has electric
lights furnished by the Consumer Pow
er Company, which also has gas fran
chise running for 30 years and it is said
will extend main so that Mt. Morris
will have gas the present year.

Detroit Auto Show

With Every foot of space taken in the
big buildings which are to be the scene
on January Is to % of Detroit's fif-
teenth annual automobile show, that
fixture looms up as one of the leaders
among the displays of 1916 models.
In fact Detroit this time is giving
what may be called an international
show, owing to the number of factories
in adjacent Canadian territory and the
many who will come from the province
of Ontario to see what American maxi
ers offer as their best product.
In addition to the brand new 1916
models fresh from the New York show
and the unusual decorative scheme, one
of the features of the Detroit auto
show will be a good roads exhibit. For
this ample space has been reserved in
the Palace auditorium, the stage being
given over to the display, which now is
being arranged. Owing to the wide in
terest in the good roads movement, the
proposed highways running north and
south on either side of the state and
cutting across to the Lake Michigan
shore, also the famous Wayne county
road system now being copied in foreign
countries, it is expected that the ex-
hibit will attract many of the visitors
during show week.

A knightly Adventurer

Several of the great newspapers of
the country have been generous enough
to recognize the sincerity of Henry
Ford in his widely ridiculed adventure
as knight-errant of peace. The New
York Times, in this spirit, printed the
following lines which are well worth
bordering even by those who see in Mr..
Ford only dreamer:
| cannot help but love the knight who goes.
Unchampioned. derided by his foes
And friends to seek the white star of his dream
In the black night. He only sees the CLEAN;
And. needing neither laughter nor the sneers
OF sane complacency, his course he steers
Into the starless skies. Perchance for him
The CLEAN will never out of darkness swim.
Yet better. dream possessed to falter down
In failure than to smoker like a clown
Over the dream. God give US grace to see
The grandeur in the soul of errantry!

Temple Assn Meeting

The annual meeting of the Masonic
Temple Association, of Clio, Michigan,
was held Monday evening. Reports
of the secretary and treasurer showed
that all obligations maturing during
the past year had been met and that a
small balance remained in the treasury.
This should be source of qualification
and encouragement to every member OF
the Order, as the past year has been a
trying one for the Association because
revenue from rentals was not avail
able for portion of the time and the
expenses of finishing the building were
many and aggregated large sum.

MASONIC FAIR
1t was unanimously voted to hold a
Masonic Fair, for the benefit of the
Temple fund some time during Febru-
airy. This enterprise should command
the unqualified support not only Of
every Mason, but of the entire COM
munity as well, because the Temple
supplies not only one of the finest lodge
rooms in the state, but On auditorium
that is a convenience and distinct
credit to the community. A committee
to arrange for the Fair. having power
to appoint sub committees, was elected
as follows: Earl Shorten, Fred Carter,
Fred Main and w. j. Curtis.
The president, secretary and treas

Despite the fact that the police
have a mendicant squad and that
there is plenty OF work for all, Broad
way is overrun with beggars. They
are on every side and II they are
turned down they grow surly and
threatening. Many Of them wear
good clothes. in fact, much better
than those from whom they solicit
aims.
There is one mendicant on Four
teenth street who sells lead pencils
by holding out his crippled hands.
At least he turns them about SO they
look crippled. After standing for
about eight hours the other day he
found that they were paralyzed. AT
the hospital 1t was said that the
cramped position he held day after
day had finally brought on tenn
porary paralysis. He will try new
game now, no doubt.

SCENES OF ST. PATRIck'S
EXILE IN EMERALD ISLE.

In his wanderings as Il teacher, ST.
Patrick doubtless visiter almost every
part OF Ireland. II was on that abrupt
and picturesque elevation. Mt Stem
ish, above the valley OF the Braid, in
County Antrim. that the heart of the
captive boy experienced its great spir
itual change. which. from events fol
lowing, may be considered to have al
tered the entire history of Ireland, and
even TO have transformed the face of
Christeudom.
Similarly, ancient Tara. the old
abode OF kings. situated about twenty.
five miles from Dublin in County
Meath, is closely identified with St.
Patrick's name. There he went first
on his mission OF conversion.
ST. Patrick must have known init.
mately the beautiful lakes of Killarney
in County Kerry, for in this neighbor.
hood he sojourned seven years. On
an island in the lakes. then known in
the Irish language by the name OF
Tough Lene Uhe Lake OF Learnine)
he established church which in the
seventh century grew into Innisfallcn
abbey.
This part of Ireland he loved es
pecially. Then. as now. the soft be
witching beauty of the scenery there
abouts was celebrated far and wide
rs the tenth wonder of Ireland Th,
mountains surrounding the waters
were empowered in yew and evergreen
and oak and purple-leaved arbutus
whose flowers hung in white rich clus
tiers. The noise of cascades falling
echoed and re-cchocd when they
struck the waters of the lake
A few miles away from the town OF
Killarney, just beyond Kate Kearney's
cottage, soon after one enters Dun
lows gap. there is a place which in
local tradition is the scene of an i'm
portant incident in ST. Patricks life
For this is said TO be the spot where
he commanded the snakes to leave Ire
land.
This distinction. however is claimed
by many other Irish places. On the
western coast. for instance. there is a
mountain called Groagh Patrick
where he is said to have gathered 10.
Gether the serpents and to have driven
them into the western ocean by beat,
ing drum. This is but one of the
many legends which still linger in the
minds of faithful Irishmen.

The president remarked. i'm speech

American notion Of what an army IL

has been smaller, in proportion to the
population of the country, than the

less than two soldiers per 1000 popu
