Hauling Logs BY Truck

Several teams are busy hauling
logs to the Belding Basket Cos. yard
and two big Union trucks are also
on the job. The trucks have mann
moth pneumatic tires and when in
front of DR.. Pinkham's residence, on
Tuesday morning, about ten-o'clock
one of the rear tires blew up. 1t had
pressure of 180 pounds in it and
1000 feet of logs as load to sup
port and when it blew, it blew hard.
1t took Ed. Thomas, north side vul-
canizer some time to repair the tire
but it was finally back on aid the
load was being unloaded at about
four o'clock. The trucks are haul
ing their loads from the Howe tim
Der tract nine miles north of Ionia
and make three trips per day and re.
gardless of the fact that the first load
was not unloaded until four o'clock
the driver was back here with his
second load at 1850 o'clock Tuesday
night. The trucks carry loads APP
proximately 1000 feet each trip.

At The Congregational Church

A large congregation listened to
Rev. w. J. Rookie at the church on
Sunday morning in an excellent SER
mon from the 44th chapter of Isaiah
goth verse. "He feedeth on ashes,
deceived heart hath turned him
aside that he cannot deliver his soul,
nor say, is there not lie in my right
hand?" A fine solo rendered by Mr..
Clayton Knapp was significant fea-
ture and the large choir in song and
anthem was a pleasing part of the
service. At the Sunday school hour
the first part of the time was taken
up with an interesting program on
the Home Missionary work Of our
church and Sunday school, under the
charge Of Mrs. Chas. johnson. Mem
bers of several classes spoke for the
different mission stations and the
work being done. The collection for
the day was to be sent to the H. H.
s. to help in this great work where
the need is so great and the reports
SO encouraging.

1t was necessary, in compiling this
table, to take some apparent liber-
ties with the published courses of
the colleges in order to make a
graphic table of the relative sub
jects. For example: The University
of Chicago does not list course in
Histology" but il does list a course
in Microscopic Anatomy" In the
table this is counted as Histology"
The Chicago College of /Osteopathy
does not list a course in Neurology"
but teaches this subject under the
head of practice" Therefore, Neu-
rology is included under practice"
in listing the courses of all the col
leges. 1t is believed that with these
compromises in mind the table will
be found as accurate as is possible to
make it under the circumstances.
The doctor of Osteopathy is q ply
sician and surgeon Of the osteopathic
system of practice. He is a real doc
tor in every sense of the term. His
scientific education is as broad as that
of the regular" medical school and
in important respects is much more
practical and better than any other
schools. The course at osteopathic
colleges Is four years of nine months
each; every student is required to
give a certain number of treatments;
AL Of them have hospital training and
do surgery; they are taught to care
for all kinds Of injuries (dinlocations

STAR THEATRE TO
SHOW A FINE
COMEDY DRAMA
TRAGEDIAN MIXES HIGH HUI.
NOR WITH HIS DRAMA IN
IAN ARABIAN KNIGHT"

"An Arabian Knight" the Robert
son-Cole Special which will be the
principal attraction at the Star
theatre for run of two days start
ing February 18th is said to be
notable for three reasons-sumptu-
BUSINESS of scenery and settings,
beauty of photography and the novel
role portrayed by the popular star,
Sessue Hayakawa.
The thousands of admirers of this
noted actor of the screen will
be delightfully."- surprised to find
when they view "An Arabian Knight.
that Hayakawa, master delineator OF
tragic roles, is just as effective in
depicting parts which demand con-
siderable comedy,
And the role of "Ahmeh," the
smiling dragoman of the Egyptian
city, who developes into a D'Artag-
nan of the pyramids, is plentifully
supplied with humor which is strik-
ingly interpreted by the master ira
gedian. Of all the rollicking, mis-
chievous desert imps, Ahmed takes
the palm. Mr.. Hayakawa's portray
al of the role gives it just the light
touch that it requires.
Both the comedy and the drama in
"An Arabian Knight" is of the sort
that grips the attention of the spec
tator and sends him away after see-
ing the picture with that satisfied
feeling which is so desirable after
sitting through theatrical enter
tainment. You feel as though you
would like to see more of Hayakawa
as droll but nevertheless honorable
mischief-maker. -.

Farm and Orchard

Have you pruned your grapes
yet? Grapes should be pruned an
nually. The best time is in the win
tAr when sap is entirely dormant. If
pruning is delayed until spring
bleeding will take away the strength
of the vine. Make the pruning ra-
ther close each year. Remember that
the crop Is borne on the new growth
and not on old at all.
"The effect of not pruning the
vines each year is to gradually di-
vide the strength of the plant so that
the weakened vine cannot produce
the best fruit nor successfully with
stand fungous diseases.
