The Erd Motor Team Of Saginaw
that same aggregation which forced
the Republics TO battle u innings

be in Alma Sunday for what is prob
ably the only time that the Erds will
appear on the Republic schedule.
The manager Of the Erd nine
claims that his bunch of diamond
stars is stronger than the brilliant
team that he brought to the Gratiot
3urg last season, and he plans on fur
nishing another surprise for the
Truckmal,ers. Il is hardly expected
that the Erds will be in the same
class with the Republics-but then
that same thing was thought last
year. and the Truckers got big sur
prise
The hour for the Sunday games
will be changed with the Erd games.
Instead Of being called at 2:3O q. m.
as heretofore, the Sunday games
commencing with this week end are
to be started promptly at 300 .. n.

on bond issue later at a special
election for the completion of the

years ago but which has been held
up because of the violation of con-

PRESENT CLASS
IS THE LARGEST
Fifty-Five Seniors Will Finish
Their High School Work
Tonight.
COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES
Professor French of NJ. A. c. Will
Give Address To Graduates
this Evening.

The thirty annual COM
mencement exercises of Alma high
school opened Sunday evening at the
First Methodist Episcopal church
with the baccalaureate address by
Rev. Willis L. Gelston, and will be
brought to a close tonight following
the presentation of diplomas to fifty
FIVE seniors, who comprise the largest
class that has ever brought its school
work to a close at Alma high.
The address Sunday evening by
Rev. Gelston of the Presbyterian
church was highly interesting, and
held the close attention of the hun
dreds that packed the large church
auditorium for the baccalaureate ad-
dress. Simple in its wording, it
could be easily understood by every
one present, and this only served to
make it the more interesting, and to
impress still more strongly on the
graduating class the points that Rev.
Gelston desired to have the members
carry with them. Full of cleancut
advice as TO the paths that the grad
yates should follow in the future, no
matter what work they take up, it
is certain to leave a deep and lasting
ing impression upon them.
On Monday evening the class pre-
sented its play, "The Scarecrow" at
the Strand theatre, before a large
audience that thoroughly enjoyed the
fine way in which the members of
the class carried off their parts in
the cast. There was every evidence
that much time and thought had been
given in making the play a highly
successful one.
Tonight at the annual commence
ment exercises, fnis will be written
for the thirty second annual com
nencement, and ifty-fve seniors will
have left high school to face life's
work, or perchance 10 continue their
learning in higher institutions.

MUST BORROW
Funds Low. City Commission Will
Borrow Money.


The city Of Alma is again this wear
facing the necessity of borrowing
funds with which to run the city until
the July taxes are available. the ex-
pectation being that $4,000 will be
secured for the use of the city during
the time that the city must wait for
the summer tax.
A resolution to allow the city 10
borrow such funds as might be need
ed was passed Tuesday evening bv
the city commission.
One of the main reasons for the
city borrowing this year is the great
amount Of special work that is to he
done, especially in sewer construc-
ton. The special assessments for
TINS work are not paid in as rapidlv
as IS desired in most cases and unless
tins condition improves or at least
does not get any worse the city NAV
be forced to borrow more than is
now anticipated.
The city officials expect to make
every effort to get the special assess
mentS into the city treasury lust as
rapidly as possible, so that funds will
continue to be available for the sewer
work without the necessity of the city
being forced to secure more money
with which to carry on this work
There are some other reasons also
why the city officials deem it wise 10
borrow at this time, but they are not
as important TO the city as is tie
pressing need Of the long contemplate
ed sewer work.

RINGLING COMING
Big Circus Will Be in Alma on July
29th. is the Word.

1t was learned yesterday that a
contract has been closed by j. r.
SaTtor, Jr., for the appearance in
Alma on Thursday, July 30, of Ring
ling Bros Circus. The contractor for
the great show was here yesterday
morning and completed the prelimin-
airy arrangements with local parties.
Without doubt, the fact that
Ringing Bros. have decided to show
in Alma again this year will mean
that no other show of any size will
make this city.
Alma has long been noted as one
of the best circus cities in the state.
and during the last visit of Ringing
Bros. to Alma upheld its reputation
by packing the big top" to the limit,
about 1900 people being in the tent
for the afternoon show.

NEW MACHINE IS
DOING fine WORK
Without Ditchdigger City Could
Not Put in All of Its
Sewer Work.

Not a thing of beauty, by any
means, but rather a cumbersome
looking piece of machinery, built to
stand hard usage, to which it is to be
constantly subjected, when in opera
ton, is the new $4,000 Austin ditch
ing machine, which the city recently
purchased and which is really and
truly putting down trenches for the
sewer work for which. this city bond
ed some three years ago, and which
is now certain to be realized before
fall
Without Question II would be i'm
possible for the city officials to Law
all of this sewer work this summer
were it not for this heavily construct
ed piece of machinery, as il would
have been impossible to get labor
enough for the work, due to its great
scarcity, and neither would it have
been possible TO have done this work
by hand if the help could have been
secured and kept within the esti
mates of the total cost of the work.
made at the time of the bond issue
this of course being due TO the high
costs of materials and to the high
labor costs of today, which are full
greater than they were at the time
that the bond issue was passed. and
which naturally was based upon es-
innate costs of 1917, rather than
1920.
TO those accustomed to seeing
work done by hand il Is startling to
see the way that this machine goes
down the street, digging the trenches
INTO which the sewer pipe is to be
laid. For instance, on Tuesday the
machine was at work on Rosedale
avenue, where a deep ditch was be-
ing put through a heavy and hard
clay, that would have meant the con-
tinual use of pick if this labor was
done by hand, and by hand labor the
work would have been slow and ar
duous, to say the least. Ii would al
so have been very expensive piece
of work. During about two hours
and half Tuesday morning the ma
chine dug the trench down Rosedale
through this hard clay for a distance
OF 500 feet and workmen just behind
the machine were putting in the sew
er pipe just as rapidly as the machine
moved along the street, saving a
large sum of money over the old
hand process Of sewer construction.
This machine can also be used for
ditching for the construction Of
water-mains and for other city work
and should prove big boon to Alma
where thousands of dollars worth of
sewer main and water main extern
SONS are badly needed. Due to con-
ditions it would be utterly impossible
TO handle all of this work by hand
labor this year, and it is a known
fact that the lack of these extensions
nave been one factor that have slow
ed up building operations in some of
the newer subdivisions of the city.
The city is still to receive a back
hller, which will be used in filling nm
these trenches once the sewer and
water mains are laid, and this also
promises to aid in reducing costs Of
sewer and water main extension
work. and will also prove big fac
tor IN aiding in getting the great
amount Of work done that is contem-
plated for this year.
