LET'S PAY OUR BILLS

The county of st. Clair is not
legally bound to pay the $4,000
still due on bills contracted for
the centennial celebration last
July.
There can be little question
about that
But-and here is something we
should all think about-the coun-
ty of st. Clair has a moral obliga-
tion in this connection it cannot
escape.
The man who is financially res
ponsible and repudiates an hon
estly contracted debt because
they can't make me pay it" is
not held in high esteem, to say
the least.
st. Clair county is just in that
position today on its centennial
bills, and it is not a nice situation.
Firms and individuals who ex.
tended credit in good faith should
not be penalized and made to suf
fer losses, because the county is
not legally" responsible.
We had our centennial celebra-
ton, under county auspices, and
it was we'll worth while.
While, perhaps, it was not a
profitable venture, from a purely
business standpoint-and there
may even be some question about
this-it served its real purpose.
AS the artist impresses and
delights us with the beauty of
the landscape, by putting it on
canvas, so did the centennial, in
bringing before us in review q
hundred years of romantic his
tory, quicken our local pride and
impress us with the necessity for
cultural as we'll as material de-
velopment.
Let us not go into moral bank

While Lewis Kerr and Howard
Weaver, aged 8 and 8 years re-
spectively, were taking few les
sons in bareback riding Saturday
afternoon with some young calves
for their mounts, their practice
continued for some time without
mishap. Finally a yearling was
corraled and the riders mounted,
much to the dislike of the young
critter. What the result was has
discouraged the boys from their

BETTER ROADS
PROGRAM OUT
Over % Miles of improvements
WEI BE Made

Announcement Of plans for the
Improvement Of 28A miles OF
road in the county system, con
tracts for which will be let early
this spring, was made last week
by William Cox, county road
engineer.
All Of the projected improve
ment will be with gravel surface,
the cost Of which cannot be figur-
ed until later when contracts are
called for, he said
Seven different stretches of
road are included in the building
program announced. They were
chosen for improvement Tor the
purpose of linking up roads al
ready improved and extending
the county system to more towns,
it was explained.
Contracts for improvement OF
other county roads may be let lat
er in the season if funds are avail
able and fr. m 80 to 35 miles Of
state road in the county will prob
ably be put under construction
this year.
The largest single stretch in
cluded in the program announced
is nine and one-quarter miles Of
the Yale-Blaine road. When COM
pleted this will connect the two
towns with gravel road, as two
miles of gravel have already been
laid from Yale east to the Green
wood town line.
Another four mile stretch in
Greenwood township is also to be
improved. 1t will run south from
the Yale-Blaine road to connect
with the improved road running
two miles north from Avoca.
The gravel road now running
south from Yale to the Emmett
township line will be connected
with the Victory highway, a state
IrGnN line roao running from Port
Huron through Goodells, Emmett
and Capac to Lapeer and Lansing.
BY putting a gravel surface or
the four and one-half mile stretch
of road running through the cen
tral part of Emmett township,
A three mile stretch of road in
the southern part of Lynn town
ship is also to be improved. 1t
runs from the gravel road in the
central part of the township west
to the county line.

$l21, 100000 CASH

Henry Ford began the new year
with the greatest amount of cash
in bank that any human being
ever had.
A few years ago Russell Sage
with ten or fifteen millions in
ready cash, used to have this dis
tinction.
Two days ago the General Mo-
tors Co. announced that it had

Henry Ford's bank balances to-
day is in excess of 1921, 100000.
He himself does not know within
five or ten millions of how much
actual cash he has at the mo-
ment, because he has not taken
the trouble to enquire of his son
Edsel, the treasurer, since the
foregoing figures were given him
few weeks ago
Our balance today" said Mr..
Ford, "isproba bly, between $780,
100000 and 100000.
Henry Ford is billionaire.
In reply to a question. he told me
today that his holdings, based
upon their several earnings,

Never
Has to Replace
S-Cyl. Engine

The Cadillac Motor Car Company has
never had to replace an S-cylinder en-.
CINE. That, according TO Tom Cooper,
local dealer, is one Of the best tributes
he knows to the Cadillac motor.
In testing each motor a long series
Of arduous tests are made, one of the
first and most interesting being the
block test.
One OF the unique things about the
engine block test OF the Cadillac motor
is the fact that it starts under its own
power without having previously been
beited in. once under way, the motor
runs under its own power for nearly Il
day, The load is gradually increased
up to a tremendous speed at the end.
The electricity generated during the
last four hours is used by the company
in production. as is the water. which
is heated to 1870 degrees.

Quite a number Of farmers in the

This feat. of cutting the johnson
