onions, French fried potatoes, salad
and home made peach pie were in full
view as the girls entered the tiny
dining room.

Mrs. Mindon, sometimes when l have
finished my dinner Of kidney stew or
beef hash at the boarding house l go
upstairs to my room and dream of
dinner like this"
Margie and her mother laughed and
the little party of three felt comfort
able and at ease at once. Margie'
eyes were constantly upon her mother
to see If she approved OF Maisie. Al
though Maisie occasionally employed
slang and was a trifie too outspoken
there was something big and hnt
about her. She bore all the marks OF
a girl who has been out in the world
for herself ever since she was In heI
teens, but with it all she retained an
atmosphere of a girl who knew wha'
to do and always stood for the righ'
things.
During the course Of the dinner she
expressed herself freely about th'

ent ways OF dancing.

Cherry Disease Gets
Million Dollar Toll

Damage to the Michigan cherry
crop of more than a million dollars is
the toll exacted by Leaf Spot, a fun
gous disease which is prevalent
everywhere in the state, according to
G. ii. Coons, plant pathologist at the
Michigan Agricultural College.
Loss to the fruit is but part of the
damage done by Leaf Spot, says Dr.
Coons. Continued loss of the leaves
will so weaken the trees that win
ter injury looms as serious menace.
Prompt Inauguration of spraying
from now on is strongly urged as
measure to keep the leaves from the
disease and to ward off the threaten
ed winter injury. The spraying pro-
gram of the college has proved ade
quate in all regions to handle the
disease, but neglect or carelessness
is costing dearly.
Further information on the Cherry
Leaf Spot may be had by writing to
Dean r. S. Shaw, NJ. A. c., East Lam
sing, for Quarterly Bulletin of Feb
ruary 1922, which contains a full ac-
count of the disease.

Order~Of Services
At the Churches
Union Services


An increasing attendance at the
union Sunday evening services in the
park is evidence of the favor which is
being felt for the work there done.
Last Sunday two solos were beauti-
fully rendered by Miss Goldie Greer
of st. Louis in addition to the com
munity singing led by Mr.. Frank
Smith. An excellent and helpful ser
mon followed, by Rev. Matt. Duffey
of the Methodist church.
For next Sunday evening Mr.. Smith
is planning other musical features
and the sermon will be preached by
Rev. W. l.. Gelston Of the Presbyter-
ian church, on the theme, "Jesus, the
Only Redeemer."
People who have been auto riding
are invited to conclude their ride by
coming to the park on or before 1880.
BY driving up behind the seats where
the service is held they can sit in
their autos and enjoy the meeting. In
this case they should endeavor not to
be late as the noise Of the engine
disturbs the meeting.
Only two more services are being
planned by the Federation Of
Churches to be held in the park. For
this reason people should take adj
vantage of them while they can. Dur
ing the month of August union serv-
ices will be held in the various
churches. The schedule for these will
be announced later.

MICHIGAN WILL
PAY THE PIPER
STATE Is NOW PAYING FOR THE
TIMBER DEBAUCH THAT
HELD SWAY.

Washington, ID. c., July 20:-
Michigan's wood-using industries
are now paying the economic piper
for the States quarter century
timber debauch, according to a
statement just issued by the Forest
Service of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, whose experts
are engaged in study to determine
the effects of forest devastation on
population, agriculture, industry and
economic life in the State.
The forests of Michigan, the state
ment continues, as a result of devas-
tating fires and reckless cutting are
now so greatly depleted that they
produce chiefly fleetwood and other
minor forest products instead of
high-grade lumber on which the
States main industries depend. The
building trades and the automobile
and furniture industries of Michigan
must largely import their supply Of
high-grade lumber from other States
instead of growing it at home.
For the most costly classes of
woods, such as those used for auto
mobiles, furniture, and building,
Michigan goes as far south as the
Gulf and as far west as the Pacific;
it imports all told little more than
a billion board feet Of lumber and
timber annually, of which 400,0O0,000
come from the Gulf Coast region and
nearly lS0,000,O0O feet from the
Pacific Northwest. For these a
mounts the State pays not only an
enormous freight bill, but also the
high prices incident to constantly
dwindling forests.
The reforestation of Michigan's
denuded lands would after few de-
cades, say forest experts, not merely
stop these costly importations, but
go far toward reestablishing the
States lost leadership in her once
greatest industry, numbering, and
put it upon a permanent basis.

Fair at Lansing
TO BE q Fine One

With the opening date of the Cen
trail Michigan Fair at Lansing less
than eight weeks off, the promoters
have practically completed arrange
ments for one of the largest
agricultural, livestock and farm ma
chinery fairs 10 be held in Michigan.
Many exhibitors have been signed
TO show their goods at this fair, the
first TO be held at Lansing in years
1t will be held on 40 acre tract Of
land additional acreage may have to
be procured) lying one half mile
east of the Michigan Agricultural
College on the Detroit-Lansing road.
The ground is at this time surround
ed by a white fence and upon it has
been erected grand stand with
seating capacity of 1000, stable
with stalls enough to take care of n
large string Of horses, stablemen's
building and several smaller build
ings to be used by consessionaires,
etc. The race track on the ground is
of regulation half-mile size and Of
good dirt. Half a dozen horses are
on the grounds now being trained
for the races during fair week.
When the gates are officially
thrown open to the public on Aug
ust %, visitors will unquestonably
see one of the best fairs in Michigan,
the promoters promise. The live
stock exhibit will be a feature, prize
stock to be shown from all parts of
Michigan. The implement exhibits
will Guido the State Fair at Detroit,
and the Horticultural Exhibit will be
the best in the state, that of the
State Agricultural College. These
will be exhibits of particular interest
to the Michigan farm, but there will
be, of course, many others as inter
esting. The Michigan State Farm
Bureau is to have wool exhibit, for
instance, that will be of interest to
the general public.
The horse race card will be
daily event, with the probable excep-
ton of the closing day when a card
of automobile races will be featured.
On Thursday and Friday of Fair
week the judging Of livestock will
take place. A prize will be awarded
on these days to the best gentleman
and lady rider.
