WONDERS OF AMERICA
e. Western Newspaper Union. CUNTHER COLLECTION
By A.T. MAXEY

MANY great and good men, pos WI sessed of hobby for collecting curious and other things, have left heritages of untold monetary value and far-reaching educational value.
 The recent death of Mir. Charles F. Gunther, Chicago philanthropist, who possessed a consuming passion for collecting, released to permanent quarters in that city the greatest known collection of historical dOcu- ments and autOgraphic letters in Am erica, and enables the loOker-On to visualize the westward shifting of the frontier from the colonies on the At lantic to the slope of the Pacific.
 A stroll through these wonders re- veals such relics as-the compass used by General George Washington in his soldier days; the first edition (1507) of the first book in which Am erica was mentioned; the first news paper, The Gazette, Oxford, England 1665); the table upon which Gen. eral Grant wrote the terms of Lees surrender at Appomattox court house (1S65); the silk hat and umbrella of Abraham Lincoln and the carriage in which he rode about in the city of Washington the document transfer ring the Territory of Louisiana from Spain to France (1SO3), and another covering conveyance from France to the United States; the instruments used in plating Chicago (1S29).
 Mir. Gunther is said to have hunted with intense eagerness for forty years. spending one million dollars.

Braun to Practice
in City of SdgindlC

Attorney Hugo Braun, who came
to this city about a year ago, and
who since the first Of the year has
been partner of William A, Bahlke,
under the firm name of Bahlke q
Braun, is opening law office in the
Burns building in Saginaw.
Since coming to Alma about year
ago Mr. Braun has been in the law
offices of William A. Bahlke, work
ing in those offices until the first of
the year, when the partnership was
formed, which was just recently dis
solved, when Mr. Braun determined
to locate in Saginaw. He has gained
a good experience in this city that
will stand him in good stead in Sag
NAV.
William A. Bahlke, the senior
member of the firm, and probably
the dean of Alma's staff of attor-
neys, will continue his practice in

Must Arouse
LdbOring Man

Lansing, Sept. S.--The real hope for
conquering tuberculosis lies in arous-
ing the interest Of the laboring man
and his family in the subject.
That is the Labor Day message of
the Michigan tuberculosis association
to the people of Michigan. Tubercu-
losis, the message continues, is not
problem Of the few but a problem of
the many. 1t is true that a few scien-
lists are constantly at work trying to
find some specific cure for the di-
sease. That side of the problem VIII
always necessarily be in the hands of
a few trained persons. But the wider
problem of cutting down the death
rate by preventing the disease will al
ways be in the hands of the many
The death rate from tuberculosis
has been steadily declining in Mich
igan until today it is far below that
of the tuberculosis d e a t h rate
throughout the registration area Of
the United States. And the reason
is because the many are taking a per-
sonal interest in preventing the di-
sease. The laboring man and his
family necessarily compose the bulk
of the states population, and as soon
as the large majority of this class Of
POPULATION take still greater per-
sonal interest in the fight against tu-
berculosis, the problem will be on the
way to solution, the state association
declares

Greeks Originated ostraelsm.

Ostracism was n ceremony and a
political move, as well as a banish-
ment in it's original workings. The
word comes from the Greek "ostrea,"
meaning the shell of an oyster. The
shells were used as ballots. OstM-
cism was rather a compliment. as IT
took 5000 votes to remove man by
ostracism, and anyone being impor-
tant enough TO arouse the desire of
that many TO having him expelled for
period of 10 years must have been
of more than usual importance.
