POPE POSES FOR THE MOVIES
Pontiff Amused as photographer
Takes Groups and "close-Ups
In Vatican Grounds.

Rome.-For the first time In history
a pope has posed for the motion pic
ture camera.
Not only was permission granted for
the filming of scenes In the Lourdes
chapel grounds, but Pope Benedict
took a leading part, posing first with
various groups and then for "close-
ups" and expressing much amusement
at the persistence of the American
photographers, who went within four
feet of the pontiff and snapped him
smiling into the camera.
This occurred after the pope had
celebrated mass for the visiting Amer
lean Knights of Columbus in the open
vatican gardens and had given holy
communion personally to each knight.
Vatican officials were amazed that the
pope appeared In these scenes for
about 20 minutes, and which proved
the most complete pictures ever taken
of vatican ceremonies.

OPENING NUMBER
LYCEUM COURSE SUR
PASSES EXPECTATIONS

Probobly no East Jordan audience
ever enjoyed program more fully
than the one that listened to the Irene
Stolofsky Company at the Temple Thea
ter last Tuesday night. The company
had just the right balance to render a
program sufficiently artistic to appeal
to the most discriminating and suffici-
emily varied to sustain interest and to
keep enthusiasm at white heat.
Miss Stolofsky on her violin with con.
sumate skill almost bewildering, enter
tanned, delighted, and charmed the au-
dience in manner that characterized
her as an artist OF unusual merit In
finished technique and In richness of
tone Miss Stolofsky is unsurpassed.
Vawter MacGregor, the happy pos
SCISSOR of very mellow baritone voice,
sang varied list of songs and complet-
ly captivated the audience with some
of Harry LADDERS compositions. Mrs.
MacGregor completed the entertain
ment by her excellent work both as a
reader and pianiste.
This single number justifies the state
mept that this years course is a most
exceptional one. 1t is enough to hope
that the two remaining musical num-
bers will be as good as this one.

Double Tragedy
at Harbor Spr' 'gs
John Lorado Kills Woman, Burns
Buildings, Then Shoots Self
From Petoskey News

Mrs. Margaret Kennedy, owner and
operator of farm seven miles north
of Harbor Springs, was shot and killed
at an early hour Tuesday morning at
her home by John dorado, who then
set fire to the house and going to the
barn set fire to the building and COM
mitted suicide Both bodies were prac-
tically consumed by flames. The cause
of the tragedy is not known but neigh
bors declare Loradohad been seen often
at the Kennedy farm during the sum-
mer and autumn. A seven-year-old
daughter of Mrs. Kennedy was shut in
the burning house by the murderer
but managed to escape after dorado
had left the house for the barn.
She was found some distance away
from the farm by Carl Cease, former
service man, who had seen the flames
from his home and was riding toward
the farm to investigate.
1t is believed by neighbors that the
couple were old acquaintances, having
known each other while residing in
Pennsylvania, and that Lorado followed
the woman to Northern Michigan a
year ago. Mrs. Kennedy is said to
have told neighbors some months ago
of having assisted some man out of
trouble, and it is believed that dorado
was the man.
Sheriff Miller and Coroner Nihart
have taken charge of the case, called a
coroner's jury, and will hold an inquest
Wednesday of next week at Harbor
Springs. The little girl has been
brought to Petoskey and is being cared
for by Mrs. Miller, wife of Sheriff Mil
Ter.
When the neighbors reached the
scene of the crime they found both
house and barn practically destroyed.
After hearing the story of tho little
daughter, search was made OF the ruins
and the two bodies discovered. The
fire also destroyed team OF horses,
cattle, hogs, chickens, several hundred
bushels of grain, farm tools, etc.
The little daughter, who seems quite
bright, declared that the man came to
the house at an early hour Tuesday
morning and quarreled with Mrs. Ken
nedy. He then pulled gun and shot
her. He used Colts automatic re-
volver which was later found in the
ruins of the barn.
Mrs. Kennedy was about thirty-eight
years of age and had resided on her
farm about two years. She handled all
her own farm work, owned team,
some stock, and had just completed
harvesting fair crops from the thirty
acres of cleared ground.
The man was about forty years of age
and had been employed at the camps
of the Cadillac Handle company. When
the company went out of business he
worked as a farm hand and at other
work throughout that part of the
county.

MILK PRODUCERS TO-
SIT TIGHT in CRISIS
State Dairy Men Adopt "Safe
and Sane" Resolutions.

Recognizing the fact that the dairy
industry of the United States is passing
through critical period, with prospects
of depression before it, 400 members OF
the Michigan Milk Producers Associ-
alton, who assembled at M. A. G. for
their fourth annual meeting on October
10, passed resolutions urging dairymen
to follow conservative policies and to
wait sanely and quietly for the readjust-
ment of commercial forces.
"There is no more occasion for alarm
in the dairy industry than in other
branches of business, but the present
conditions call for sane, careful, and
sensible judgements" said the resolut-
ions committee, and the sentiment was
adopted unanimously by the assembled
dairymen.
A great national advertising campaign
to increase the consumption OF dairy
products, and higher protective tariffs
for the dairy industry were among the
points urged by speakers at the meet
ing. President N. p. Hull, of the Associ-
alton; A. C. Anderson, OF Flint, former
ly professor of dairy husbandry at M.
A. c.; Mrs. Dora Stockman, first wo-
man of the State Board of Agriculture;
and M. d. Dunn, President of the Nat
ional Dairy Council, were prominent
among the speakers.
Officers elected for the coming term
included N. p. Hull, Lansing President
j. C. Near, Flat Rock, Vice-President
r. c. Reed, Howell, Secretary and Sell
ing Agent; H. w. Norton, Howell,
Treasurer; and M. d. Campbell, Cold
water; M. l.. Noon, Jackson; and l.. w.

board of directors. All were reelected

MICHIGAN BOYS WIN
HIGH JUDGING HONORS
Place Tenth In Nation-W Wide
Club Contest AT Atlanta, Ga.

Three Michigan boys, Representatives
OF their state by virtue of victories at
Detroit and Grand Rapids fairs this fall,
placed tenth in the National Boys Club

actual victories in competition.
The Texas judging team, winners of
the first honors at the Atlanta show,
will be sent to England to compete in
the English Royal Agricultural Show,
at London later in the year. This ar
rangement carries the judging compe-
tition, started in the local club units all
over the country, to an international
final, and gives American club boys
chance to compare their talents with
the best from other lands.
Michigan boys have been winning
many judging honors this fall. Early
in October dairy team finished seven
tn in the National Dairy Show club
boys judging events at Chicago, Mich
igan scoring second highest points in
judging Holsteins, competing against
teams from fourteen other states.
R. A. Turner, State Leader of Boys
and Girls Club Work, went South with
the team which won the recent honors
at Atlanta. The boys received their
training under the clnb leaders of the
Nj. A. G. Extension Division.

Running at Times 40 Miles an Hour
So an Overland stock car started
from New York at midnight on July
18th. The roads were rought. Not
a single driver had ever sat in the
car before. In many cases the road
was missed, and the distance had ia
be covered back until the right road
or the detour was found.
Lets try to average 20 miles
an hour clear across" was the sug-
gestion of the Overland dealers "But
that means driving S5 to 40 miles an
hour part of the time" was the OBJ
lection, land you can't get gasoline
economy at that speed. But 20
miles an hour was decided upon.
rs Different Men Sat at the Wheel
A motor car trip across the Unit
ed States in a weeks time in a car
weighing less than 1000 pounds.
That was the plan.

Mile after mile clipped off on
schedule time. Distributors met the
car at appointed locations. Change
of 25 drivers was made sometimes
in less than two or three minutes.
Once a windshield was groken which
had to fixed. Here and there a nut
had to be frightened. But the car
pounded on through rain and dust
and heat over mountains and plains.
At Kearney, Nebraska, the half
way mark, the average stood rs
miles per gallon over a distance of
1000 miles. And the car was run
ming so perfectly that every driver
expressed the utmost enthusiasm over
its performance.
As Standard as the Car You Buy
One of the remarkable things about
the trip was the low oil consumption.
And the war went across, not on cord
tires such as are normally used for
this kind of trip, but on Standard
Fisk fabric tires.

an entirely new kind of trip for

automobile from driver to driver on

car will do"
At first the idea was scoffed at, as
every man who knows automobiles
knows that under such handling no
car can be reasonably expected to
perform even up to its normal re-
quirements. But on second thought,
it was decided that trip like this
would be the best kind of test that
could possibly be given, as it would
show not the best that a car could
perform, but the best that could be

PIP Miles to Gallon-That is

The average gasoline mileage for
the entire trip was 27.2 miles to the
