which they happened to be located.
This does not apply to the Consolidate
ed. While the high quality of its pro-
duct and its honorable methods have
been the ultimate factors responsible
for its prosperity, these results have
been attained as a direct result of the
interest the company takes in the well
fare of its workers.
Evidence of this real interest is
shown by the efforts of the company
to prvide working quarters that
are well lighted and ventilated, equip
ped with all sanitary conveniences and
not only having every feature to safe
guard the health and life of the work

other ways. The company has spent
thousands of dollars beautifying their
grounds around their mills in Grand
Rapids and at Biron, and so they have
set an example which has been follow
ed by many other individuals as
well as the civic authorities
with the result that Grand
Rapids is known as one of the most
beautiful towns in the state.
At Biron, the company has provided
splendid club house, equipped with
billiard room, reading room, etc.
A beautiful lawn also surrounds this

through to the lake, stopping near
The end of Bay View road. The
trip back was partly by rail, but
the hike itself was at least thirty
miles. Those not answering at the
roll call at the finish, after making
twenty miles, had been ordered by
their Scout Master to take jitney
bus at Bay View to Ironville. AT
Ironville they met Mr.. Witzler's
truck and their journey was ended
by a ride.
The trip was thoroughly enjoyed
by all. AT Toledo they were taken
through Waite H. S., where the
gymnasium was particularly inter
esting to the boys.
At the lake fire was made and a
bounteous feast prepared. Many
interesting things were seen along
the way, among them muskrat
houses, large hawk, a run by a
Toledo fire company, and last of
all, the first robin of the year.

That is rank foolishness. Were it true

TOWN IMPROVEMENT.
Continued from First Page.

oped9 Is there any latent force
that needs community aid to
arouse it into actionQ If so, let
us unite all the forces for our de-
velopment. Few communities are
doing all they might-many are
doing something-some nothing.
There are many ways to benefit
the town, but it must be done
through cooperation. Why should
not all communities have a fall
festival, choral society, lyceum
course, a literary society, band,
debating club-any one or all
Does anyone believe that these in
stitutions would not make a favor
able and lasting impression upon
community? 1t would uplift and
enlighten and be a sure guaranty
of prosperity, security and happi-
ness to the individuals who COM
pose it. The community spirit
seeks the good of the whole town
and if we make our town what it
should be, we will put aside all
narrow and selfish interests and we
will exchange personal short-sight
for community long-light. There
is no place for littleness in the re-
lation of the citizen to his town.
Town Improvement or commun-
ity development is a peaceable doc
trine-its purpose being to enlist
neighbor with neighbor and friend
with friend in the building up of
the town, for a united community
is a prosperous one. "Peace, har-
mony and progress" should be the
watchword and Cooperate and
boost the motto.
No town can afford to go along
in an old rut denying the practical
bility of projects and policies that
are successful in other towns and
when it has once pulled itself upon
the high road to progress, its citi-
zcns must be ready to sound it's
praises to everyone at home and
abroad. A story is told of a new
conner i'll a certain town, who asked
a resident what kind of people
lived in it. The resident answered
by asking the question, "What
kind of people We're in the com
munity you have just left?' The
answer was anything but compli-
mentary, and the resident replied,
that the newcomer would find the
same kind of people in the COM
munity to which he was removing.
Another newcomer asked the
same resident the same question,
and received in reply the question
he had asked the other newcomer.
But the reply he received from the
second newcomer was that the
people in the community he lef,
were the finest in the world.
Well" the resident answered,
"you will find the same kind of
people here" Pride in one IS own
town, ought to inspire every citi
zen with a desire to give to it
good character and a good name,
exactly as he would bequeath
good character and good name
to his own offspring.
Each year should see better
schools, better streets, better roads
and better citizens, more neighbor-
illness and greater cooperation.
All these are brought about
through the clubs, community
groups, civic bodies and public
discussions of our needs and prob
lens. Women's clubs have in
creased in number. and member
ship and the fields Of their activ-
tiles have enlarged, until they |
have interested themselves active
ly and effectively in much of the |
most important work that can be
performed through organized eff
fort. They have interested them

LIBERTY BELL RINGS
FOR THE Third TINE
Make Liberty Secure, Buy
A Liberty Bond Was
Its Message

Philadelphia, June 14-Old Liberty
Bell rang out at noon today for the
third time since 1776
Its alarm was reverberated back from
the deep throated tongues of thousands
of bells throughout tho nation.
"Buy Liberty bond. Repel the Ger
man menace. Make liberty secure in
the land for which our fathers died, =
was is message.
Thousands crowded Independence
Square. They were not holiday makers.
They represented the mass Of the ma
tion-its aspirations, its hopes, its de-
termination to bring to successful con
clusion the death struggle between au-
tocracy and democracy.
The bell-the relic of liberty, symbol
of freedom--stood silent in Independ-
ence hall since 1885. Its brazen side
was split.
Around its girth steel bands, typical
of the unification and solidarity of
these United States, entwined. 1t were
sacrilige to ring it except in just
cause.
Today that cause came, and it was
with reverence that Mayor Smith tap
ped it softly with silver hammer.
"Buy Liberty bond'' was tho mes
sage of the bell. With its stroke, tclc-
phone bells shrilled, telegraph wires
hummed. The message had been carried
to every red blooded citizen Of the
United States.
