On Sane Lines
Sleuths To Use Common Sense
And Judgment.

Lansing, April 9.-Delighted as he
is at the result of Mondays election,
State Food and Drug Commissioner
Fred L. Woodwork, who has general
supervision over the enforcement of
the prohibition laws, says the depart
ment will continue its crusade against
the bootlegger and 1.-The commercial
liquor dealer. He says that in their
enthusiasm over the big majority
against the beer and wine amendment
will not encroach upon the rights of
the private citizen guaranteed by the
constitution and the courts of the state.
There will be no wholesale invasion of
private homes. Enforcement of the
law will be tempered with judgment
and common sense in the future.

WAR EXHIBIT TRAINS
TO TOUR MICHIGAN

The chief feature of the first exhibi-
ton train to be, sent out under the di-
rection ofthe Liberty Loan committee
of the Seventh Federal Reserve district
in connection with the Victory Loan, is
whippet tank. These whippet or
"baby" tanks are the first small tanks
that were made in the United States
and thousands of them were in process
of construction when the armistice was
signed. They are modelled after the
French Renault type of caterpillar
"baby" tanks with added improve
ments. The weight of these tanks is
six tons and each is equipped with a
sixty-two horsepower motor. The
protective covering consists of steel
armorplate five-eighths of an inch
thick
In addition to the tank, the exhibition
will include anti-aircraft guns, siege
guns, the famous French 75's, as well
as trench mortars, howitzers, grenades,
torpedoes, helmets and breastplates
which were taken in battle. The eX-
hibits, which are free to the public,
will be in charge of guard of twenty
returned soldiers and sailors. Well
known speakers will deliver addresses
at every stop.
The train consisting of three flat cars,
baggage car, in place of the box car
used in former exhibition trains, and a
Pullman, will leave Chicago, April Z.
The tour of exhibits will extend for
four and half weeks ending May 9th.
The Michigan itinerary in so far as il
applies to this part Of the state, is as
folIows.-

Scott Sails To
Find Lost Yanks
Wants Information on Missing
Wolverines.

Washington, April 8.-Congressman
Frank d. Scott, of Alpena, left for
Europe on the steamship Leviathian
for the purpose OF attempting to get
some news of certain Michigan soldiers
of whom the war department has lost
track of. He carries with him a list OF
about seventy-five soldiers from the
state whose authentic information for
from thirty days to six months. Con-
gresham Scott will 60 directly to the
headquarters of Gen. Pershing on land
ing in France and will ask that the
cases of these boys be given special
and speedy attention.
81 can cite you one typical case to
show you why am making this long
trip" said Scott. "The parents of one
soldier living in my district heard last
August that he was in hospital suffer-
ing from shell shock. This was authen-
tic information from the war depart
ment. Since that date they have not
been able to get word as 70 his condi-
ton. They do not know. whether he
recovered or died. They believe that
if he had regained his health he most
certainly would have written them. But
they have not received'so much as a
postal card. This suspense, with alter
nate hope and despair is really worse
than the knowledge of his death. l
propose to learn the truth about this
boy and get the word to his parents as
speedily as possible. l had hoped to
visit my district before the special ses-
sion was called, but doubt whether
can now do so. consider this work
of locating the missing Michigan boys
more important. OF course, also in
tend to visit the battlefields and gather
all the information possible which will
be guide to me in framing legislation
and voting on important measures COM
ing up in the next congress"

Henry L. Winters
Now Major
East Jordan Soldier Receives
Mcrited Promotion.

Letters received here by friends from
our old Company 81" soldiers indicate
that at last our army machinery had
decreed that Henry l.. Winters, former
Captain OF Headquarters Company,
125th Inf'y and recently Captain of
Company F, same regiment, should be
decorated with the gold leaf and en-
dowed with the office and title of
Major.
"Better late than never" is an old
axiom, but why this promotion was not
made long ago is beyond the ken of us
stay-at-homes. II ever man was boil
ed, stewed, frizzled and fried in all
things pertaining to army life its our
self-same Henry.
Uncle Sam, you've been long time
getting there, but we thank you just
the same.

PREXY SPARES THE ROD

Wonder what would happen if some
morning we would pick up the paper
and see where President Wilson had
said that the first thing to be obtained
is peace? A peace which would punish
the Hun for every atrocity; a peace
which would put aside every thought
of leniency to the German people, who
gloried in the crimes of their soldiers.
We could say with that famous cartoon
ist, "Aint it grand and glorious feel
in?" Other nations united in an effort
to obtain such results can point with
pride to their sons who come out un-
afraid Of such arguments. Lloyd George
has been constant advocate Of peace
first" In his latest statement he sees
grave danger ahead if peace is not OBJ
tanned first and that quickly. Every
one knows the attitude of France.

EFFECT OF COLOR UPON THE
DURABILITY OF PAINT.

Property owners who may have un-
der consideration the painting Of
dwellings and other structures should
remember that more durable results
are obtained when tinted paints are
used. Permanent colOring materials
which have been ground by machine
into a high grade white paint base
have the effect Of preventing "chalk-
ing" and checking" two defects
which are often observed when white
paints are used.

- you do just enough work to "get
by" with your job, some day your job
will "get by" without you.
4 If you have brains enough to do what
Jou are doing it doesn't signify that
you have enough to do the things you'd
like to do.
If you'd just settle down to the fact
that you're never going to be rich, and
not worry about 1t, you'd have more
time to do the things that may make

NEWT THE NONPAREIL

The War Department headed by ''the
most efficient executive | have ever
known" has announced that the last
real casualty lists are now being pub
lished NOW BEING PUBLISHED!
The armistice was signed more than
four months ago. What's the idea?
There are plenty Of gasoline wasters
running around in officers uniforms in
Washington who apparently are with
out work. Why the next thing you
know Newt the Pacifist will announce
that all casualties occurring with the
American forces in Siberia will be
printed in the summer of 1921. And
he wouldn't be wrong either from past
records.

"PAINT PAYS FOR ITSELF"

QUERY have a quantity of old paint
on hand. Can use It for the first coat in
repainting my barn?
Answer.-On no account should old
paint which has become fat be used
for printing either old or new work.
Old paint In that condition is best used
on a fence, briekwork or tinwork. If
you value your barn sufficiently to
paint Il, do II the Justice of good Job.

ANSWERS WHICH WILL SOLVE
PERPtExiN0 PROBLEMS OF
THIS RECONSTRUCTION ERA.

Query.-The government has launched
an educational campaign to encourage
building In order to put more men to
work. Would not a similar movement to
show how the old structures can be best
and most economically repaired and made
good as new also help?
Answer.-It is learned that such
plan is in effect and Is linked directly
with the Washington propaganda.
Industry must be turned back from
works OF war to the ways of peace.
Employment must be found, In the
meanwhile, for those whose occupa-
tion has been interrupted. There is no
real surplus of labor in the United
States. Rather there Is q shortage,
which would be acute If normal condi-
ditiOns were already restored, and one
step towards restoring them will come
with resumption of repair work.
Government restrictions, imposed by
the necessities Of the war program,
have for many months past retarded
or altogether prevented construction,
Improvement and repairs. These re-
strictions are now off, and there Is
scarcely a town, city, factory, a
dwelling or farm that does not reveal
crying need for prompt attention.
Nothing delays such instant action ex
cept the feeling that prices are high
for the time being and may be lower.
That is not logical No matter what
1t costs to repair, the cost Is less than
the cost Of neglect No matter what
the cost of paint, the wind and the
weather win collect a higher bill in
deterioration and decay.
Qusry.-what do you think Of paint as
An investment, aside from the appearance
1t lends? Does 1t really PAY to paint
house regularly, say, every three or four
yearsf
Answer.-Good paint properly ap-
piled when needed is the main thing In
making a house last long and well. A
house worth $2,5O0 can be painted at a
cost Of about $125. In 90 years that
house will need about Is paintings,
the total cost of which will be 1898
Left without paint, such house would
fall into complete ruin In 30 years So
taking go years as a. basis for our fig
ures we find that with paint home
will last that time in good condition
and will cost, plus paint, $4,375. With
out paint the house would have to be
rebuilt at the end OF 30 years and
would be ready for another complete
renovation when the sixtieth year ar
rived. Cost, without paint, $4,000 for
a home ready to fall to pieces. Does
regular painting payf AS the old
Dutch adage says:

Also carried by like majority through
ort the state, and already the state
officials are planning to 90 ahead with
good roads work. An extra session OF
the state legislature may be called for
this work after May 7th.
Little interest was shown in the state
amendment relative to increasing salar-
les of justices of courts of record dur
ing term of office, and this amendment
probably was defeated.

was elected by big majorites. Thomas
E. johnson of Coldwater, whose name
