DR.. o. H. Miller and family have
closed their cottage at Lake Cora
and returned to Chicago.
Lovers of equine speed will see
their favorite sport staged under the
most favorable conditions at the Van
Buren, county fair at Hartford, Sep
tember 30th, to October 3rd, if Old
Sol deigns to smile upon the venture
with his usual favor. The fine track
is in the pink of condition and driv-
ers who have been making the circuit
OF Michigan race meets are saying
that it is by far the fastest half
mile circle in the state. The races at
the fair will be the "wind-up" for
many Of the horses now being driven
at the Michigan meets. A majority
of the racing events will be out of
the way when the Van Buren, county
fair opens, and horsemen are looking
toward Hartford as the final event
of the season in Michigan. Nine
races are scheduled. with q total of
$2,350 in purses, and the early en-
tries show that a number of horses
will make their initial appearance on
the Hartford track this fall. The
races occur on the afternoons of Oct
ober 1, 2 and 8. Wednesdays card
is 2:3O trot, 2:15 pace and 2:12
trot. On Thursday the PAGERS will
predominant 2:3O pace, a 2:2O pace
and 2:18 trot being carded. Friday

and free-for-all pace. AS usual at
Hartford, Fischer's Exposition or
chestra will entertain the grandstand
crowds and aeroplane flights will be
sandwiched in between the heats.
Men and women from every coun-
ty in Michigan met with the officers
Of the state organization and the ex-
ecutive committee in Detroit Thurs
day to make plans for Michigan's
participation in the nationwide cam
paign to provide suitable memorials
to the late Theodore Roosevelt. The
intensive campaign will commence on
October goth, and eliminate on Roose
velt's birthday, October 9th. The
movement was started some weeks
ago by friends and admirers of Col.
Roosevelt, and some of the most
prominent men and women of the
nation are identified with it. 1t is
proposed to erect fitting monument
in Washington and to establish a
national memorial park at Oyster
Bay, Long Island, which, it is hoped,
will include Sycamore Hill, the Roose
welt home to be preserved like Mount
Vernon and the home of Abraham
Lincoln at Springfield. The campaign
is to be entirely nonpartisan and
every man, woman and child in the
United States will be given an oppor-
tunity to help perpetuate the memory
of Colonel Roosevelt as an outstand-
ing example Of splendid American
Citizenship. Paul H. King of De-
troit has been selected by the Nation
al commission as chairman for Mich
igan, and the Van Buren county or

BUILD NOW
WALT MASON TELLS REASONS|
FOR BUILDING YOUR OWN HOME
IN ROLL|CKING RHYME HEREWITH

From out West the Curtis companies
have sent to the United States Depart
ment of Labor a characteristic poem
written for their service by Walt
Mason. The poem encourages build
ing as follows:
Houses Scarce
Oft I hear discordant slogans. hear
the loud and sad lament; men are
wearing out their brosans hunting
houses they can rent Every village.
town, and city sees the same dis
couraged crew; and it seems to me a
, pity that good houses are so few.
In my native burg. Empory, I see
women chasing round and they tell
the same old story--houses simply
can't be found And the same sad
word is spoken everywhere 1 chance to
roam from Topeka to Hoboken folks
are hunting fer a home.
When they're sick>and tired of chas-
ing, when their souls with woe are
filled. maybe they'll decide to build.
Rents are higher now than ever. and
the prices won't slump back. and that
man is really clever who will build
himself shack
But the cost" I hear men yawp-
ing; and they put up thoughtless roars
for they never have been shopping at
the modern lumber stores. Building
goods to-day are cheaper than all
other goods YOU buy: all commodities
are steeper-asll the lumber dealer
nigh.
Moneyed men are often questing for
gold bricks, and dern the price: always
ready for investing in blue sky and
picked ice. II they'd build lot of
houses they might dwell in Easy
Street whore the catawampus
browses, and the dingbat's song is
sweet. Every time they'd build
dwelling crowds would come. and still
increase, crying clamoring. and yell
ing, begging for a five-year lease.
There's no better proposition than
this thing of building homes, and the
fact should find position in the pluto
cratic domes.
And the man with modest bundle
should take his wad and trundlc to
the lumber dealers store.
Wheeler Apartments 10 BE Decorated
Interior decorating of the new
apartments built in the Wheeler build
ing will be commenced shortly by Muir
ply Bros, who have already started
painting the exterior white. There are
several rooms in the remOdeied build
ing. including the studio and recep-
tiofl rooms and extensive improve
ments will be made
