"The contract provides .hat mainte.

test years, measured not in dolla1s
but in actual rails, ballast, equipment

served by permitting disputants to en-
gage in endless litigation over the
matter.
The government ought to recognize,
moreover, that its use of the railroads
was war proposition, and ought to
be ready to write Off losses in buying
railroad equipment and betterment,
just as it has done in shipping and in
war plants. The cost of materials was
excessively high, and the government
ought to bear the excess over the
normal as war cost
Delay Disturbing
"The purchase Of material needed to
keep the roads running at top not.h
canot be too long postponed withomt
a breakdown in transportation.
There is another aspect to this sxlb
ject. The railroads as whole are the
greatest purchasers of steel in the
country. While they hold off, the steel
industry is slack. At present the lack
of activity in the steel industry mars
the general movement toward pros
porous business conditions. The steel
industry reacts on many others, and if
the orders from the steel companies
largest customers are withheld indefi-
ifo1 <no ,v,I,
others will be adversely affected.
II know that steel is high and that
the steel companies made large profits
during the war. But, with wages at
their present level, l do not believe
that steel can be profitably manufact-+
ured at substantially lower prices.
Too Much Apathy
"Too many persons are adamant to
this important situation. Either
through lack Of correct information or
through prejudice, they are ignoring
the general impairment of the railf
roads which is going on"
Mr.. Sisson said that undoubtedly
many people were still opposed to
treating the railroads fairly, on the
assumption that their stock is heavily
'watered.' Although some roads may
have been overcap apitalized in the past,
most Of these have gone through the
process Of bankruptcy and reorganiza-
ton, he said, and the water has dis
appeared. Property values created out
OF earnings have changed other firan-
cial structures. At present, Americas
railroads, the banker insisted, are not
overcapitalized, but underea phtalized by
perhaps billion and quarter dollars.
Since 1910, Mr.. Sisson explained, the
Interstate Commerce Commission has
based its rate rulings on the value of
the property of the roads, without ref
erence to the amount of securities out.
standing.
The banker characterized the sum of
s75O,O0000O, which it was reported the
House Committee on Interstate CON-
merce is willing to provide for Director
General Hines, as wholly inadequate,
and also asserted that MIR. Illness re-
cent purchase of steel railiwas merely

Little demand for crude rubber has
developed even with prices continuing
at low level. Meantime little inter

and the stocks held by scrap rubber
dealers are accumulating.
Scrap rubber prices have not been
reduced and reclaimers contend that
until they can buy their raw material
cheaper it will be impossible for them
to offer their product at figure that
wlll prove attractive to manufacturers.
While business is decidedly dull.

VARSITY FOOT BALL SQUAD

East Lansing, Nov. 19.-Raymond
w. Noddins, Orleans boy, is one of
the 60 men on the varsity football
squad at M. A. c. this fall. Noddins
had no chance to make the first team
because IL monogram returned to
school and not even all of these could
be used. He is expected TO get his
opportunity next season however.
Noddins is taking the electrical
engineering course and is member
of the class of 1920.
While there are 60 men in varsity
football clothes the total number
playing the gridiron at NJ. A. c. is
mere 'rnr countin nearly 81 IN
the All-Fresh and about 80 on the
various class teams.
In addition basketball, track,
swimming and baseball bring out their
share of the Aggie students. One
reason for the high standard of ath-
letics set at M. A. c., authorities be-
lieve, is the compulsory gymnasium
rule, which requires every student,
"ed" and coed both, to spend two
hours a week in gym work. This car

Mrs. Martha Skelcher, who has been
confined to her bed for over two
months passed away at her home on
Root street, Thursday night, the 18th
of November. Through her long ill
ness, Mrs. Skelcher was a most pa

helpful neighbor and true and 10y
al friend, she was an efficient and
faithful worker, and gave the best
of her service TO everyone who en-
ployed her. She leaves, besides three
daughters and two sons, friends who
are legion to miss her sorely and
morun their loss.
The funeral was held at her late
home on Root street, Sunday after
noon at two o'clock, Rev. Curch Off
ciating. Interment was made in Ri
yer Ridge cemetery.

NEW DEPOT FOR
BELD|nG ASSURED
BY COMMISSION
BRICK STRUCTURE COSTING
$4,000 is AT LAST TO
BE BUILT HERE

Belongs long fight to get a new
modern depot building in place of the
tumble down affair which has stood
the test of the last thirty or forty
years time is at last TO be rewarded
by the erection of a new and modern
brick structure TO cost in the neigh
borhood of $4,000. In addition to
this the track is to be Strengthened
and other improvements made which
will make the depot property one of
the best and prettiest in the state.
A delegation consisting of r. H.
Hall, Brinton F. Hall, Mayor E. +.
Fales, City Attorney Fred L. Warner,
Guy ID. Weter and Byron F. Brown
went to Lansing recently and met
with the. state commission and the
railroad attorneys also met with them.
The commission ruled at that time
that the attorneys should get busy
and arrive at a decision in the matter
within the next seven days, as the
Federal administration of railroads
had already sanctioned the expense
and the depot should be built.
Mr.. Howard Hall, president of the
board of commerce has kept ever
lastingly at this proposition and tho
the attorneys have no doubt at times
played with him in the matter and
passed the responsibility on to the
federal administration and the lat
ter passed it to the railroad officials,
il eventually came to a point where
Mr.. Halls determination to have a
new and suitable depot for this city
won out and the ruling of the COM
mission makes it that this city can
have a ew>depot just about any time
that the local men who are pushing
the proposition say so-this winter
or next spring.
The plans for the proposed new de-
pot are already here and will be showr
at a meeting of the board of com
merce members in the city hall, to-
night

Buying Goods in Chicago

A. ID. Fristoe of the firm of Fris-
toe & Rummler has been in Chicago
for the past week making purchases
for the big stores stock which he de-
cided could best be bought by a per-
sonal visit and inspection. Mr.. Fris-
toe was not satisfied with the offer
ings and the goods which the sales
men brought through with them and
took the trip over to Chicago to make
his own selections. Bert Rummler
says that from the way goods have
been coming in to the store since Mr..
Fristoe got to Chicago it looks as If
he was buying out half of the stocks
in the Chicago wholesale houses and
Don Cooper has been kept busy un-
packing and stocking away the stuff
that he is getting to think that life
is just one great big Job of work.
They say, however, that they are go-
ing to have one of the best, finest and
largest stocks of goods for the holi-
day trade that any store in this sec
tion of the state has and that the pri-
ces are right as usual. Mr.. Fristoe
Is recognized as a careful buyer and
the stores customers are realizing
this fact and more as time goes on.

Shindorf Makes Prices

Peter Shindorf of the Pleasant st.
Market is quoting some tempting
prices on meats in his advertisement
in this issue and it would be well
worth your time to look up the adver-
tisement. Mr.. Shindorf has recently
engaged Mr.. Peter Speerstra, an ex-
pert meat cutter and the latter has
already taken up his duties in the
market. Mr.. Speerstra has occupied
a rather unique position in life for the
past few years. He lived on a farm
near Ada and his three sons who help
ed him work the place, enlisted in the
service and he then sold out his farm
and entered some branch of the gov
ernment service himself. On being
released after the war he started in
at his old trade of meat cutter and
he is now in the Pleasant Street Mar
ket where he will be glad to "meat"

Shot a Big Rabbit

Jim Couzzins and Fred McCue, the
latter alderman of the third ward
mind you, were out hunting near Null
liken, Sunday and Jim shot a rabbit
which weighed, after being dressed
slightly more than FIVE and three
quarters pounds. Jim said it must be
a young deer or some other animal
but that it looked like a rabbit and Sc
he blazed away and Topped the top of
bunny's head right off with the charge
of shot. He showed the carcass to
the editor as proof of his story and
really it looked to us as if Jim had
shot Trum Currie's dog or some other
canine in the neighborhood and we
told Jim so, but he said that dog or
rabbit he was going to eat it just the
same. The rabbit was the largest
which we have ever seen or heard of
being shot.

Thanksgiving Day Proclamation

(By the Governor)
20 give thanks unto the Lord for
He is good: for His mercy endureth
forever"
Following the custom established
by our fathers nearly three hundred
years ago, il is fitting that we should
set apart one day in the year as
Thanksgiving Day, and that we should
on that day assemble ourselves to-
gether in our accustomed places of
worship and render hearty thanks to
Almighty God for all His mercies and
blessings.
A year ago we rejoieed that after
the crueltie< and horrors Of war peace
had spread its blessed benediction ov-
er all the earth. We have had year
of peace. Our gallant soldier and
sailor lads have come back 10 us, save
those who gave up their lives in our
cause. The liberties of the world
have been made secure, and the fcun-
dations of this republic have remained
mistaken. True. we sfill have our
problems 60 solve, for peace has its
dangers no less than war, but the
good sense of the American people
has always been equal TO any task
which has confronted them; and, in
spired and cheered by the achieve
ments of the past, may we not look
hopefully TO the future, confident that
no emergency can arise with which
we shall be unable TO cope? Let US
give ourselves in earnest TO the task
of building a better state and a better
nation.
Therefore. /. ALBERT +. SLEEP
Err, Governor of the state Of Michigan
do hereby join the President of the
United States in designating
Thursday. the twenty seventh day Of
November, next, as a day of
Thanksgiving and Prayer"
Given under my hand and the great
seal Of the state this seventeenth day
of November, in the year of our Lord

eighty-third.
