CORRECT 1T

Mr.. Hart, cashier of the Al
mont Savings Bank, informs us
that over 1000 one dollar bills
were taken out from their reserve
this past week, which proves to
him that people are trading out of
town, for if they were not this
money would find it's way back
into the bank from the business
men. There is something wrong
either with our merchants, or
their prices or their stocks. We
DO not believe that Inlay City or
Romeo merchants can buy goods
any cheaper than Almont. We do
not believe the goods are any bet
ter. We do believe that people
will buy goods where merchants
advertise what they have to sell

DIR. WIRTH LOWTHER
The Last Number On The Lee

The fifth and last number of the
Interstate Lyceum Course, under
the auspices of the Yale Music
Study Club, was given in the Aud
itorium last evening.
The course has been a financial
success and the majority Of the
numbers have been we'll liked.
The project was an experiment
for the club, the members desir-
ing to give the people some enter
tainment through winter months
that would be enjoyable and bene-
fetal. They are satisfied that the
people want just that and for the
coming year are going to put the
very best of companies on the
stage of the Auditorium. This
will be three numbers from the
famous Redpath Lyceum Bureau.
which costs money but in order
to get entertainment of high order
the club is willing to see it
through, with the cooperation of
the people of Yale.
The subject of DR.. Lowther's
lecture on Wednesday evening
was THE Art of Seeing Things"
He held the attention of his lis
teners from beginning to end. and
his philosophical manner of ex-
planning the different kinds of
blindnesses and how to correct
our mental eyesight was good for
all sore eyes. We surely saw some
things more clearly and effectu-
ally when DR.. Lowther concluded
his lecture, and we can say in be-
half of the audience, that we
would like to hear him again.

PLAN STANDAR-
DIZING POTATOES
County Agent Kidman Claims
Tubers Can Be Grown
AT a Profit

One of the secondary projects
of the st. Clair County Farm Bu-
reau for the coming summer is
that of standardizing the varie-
ties of potatoes grown in St. Clair
County. Although not grown
in st. Clair County on a large COM
mercial scale, yet there is a fertile
field for developing this industry
in this county. Last fall the at
tention of the writer was drawn
to the fact that the greater per
cent of the potatoes offered on the
streets of Port Huron were from
LaI eer County growers.
1t would seem that if Lapeer
County Farmers can grow pota-
toe and transport them a distance
of thirty-fve or forty miles to Port
Huron and sell them at a profit,
certainly the farmers living on the
sand and sandy loans soil of st.
Clair County would find this en-
terprise one well wort!. develop
ing.
In attempting to standardize the
varieties or potatoe grown in st.
Clair County it would seem only
logical TO follow the example set
by the commercial growers in the
now growing Petoskey Golden
Russets, commonly known as
Late Petoskey" or "Russet Rur-
al"
This variety is receiving a large
amount of advertising throughthe
medium of the Michigan Potatoe
Growers Exchange at Cadillac
which iC the sales agency. for some
$4,000 potatoe growers in Central
and Northern Michigan. This va
riCty has been selected by these
men because it is:
l. Avariety native to Michigan.
2. A high yielding variety.
3. More disease resistant.
4. Easily identified by the house
wife.
Certified Seed Pays
In comparative tests held last
year in Illinois, Iowa and Indiana
where Michigan certified seed was
compared with their native seed
and they ecured the following re-
suits; Illinois, 81 growers secur-
ed an average increased yield of
ID bushels to the acre in favor of
Michigan seed; 6 growers in Iowa
secured an average increase of
61.2 per bushel; while 21 growers
in Indiana secured an increase or
63 bushels per acre; IL growers
IN Pulaski County, Indiana receiv-
cd an average increase of 80 bush
els per acre in favor of Michigan
certified seed. The highest di1-
ference in favor of the certified
seed was 223.5 bushels per acre.
Lest the reader think that his own
seed returned a yield of 234 bushel
per acre while the certified seed
returned 1915.
This is the type Of seed that the
Farm Bureau is endeavoring to
get the potatoe growers in ST.
Clair County to use. Already ten
growers have sigified their intent
Jon of securing some of this seed

ship, We must, unless We lose the golden opportunity, instl into every
child, through his contact with the animal world, the principles of justice,
mercy and love.
Nothing good is impossible. Only as our visions fail do our efforts
lessen.
In the animal world there is a wonderful harmony between the crea-
lures and the circumstances and conditions amid which they are placed.
The same law rules in the province of human life.
Every teacher knows the value of applied instruction. What more
interesting text to teach children that animals have rights to be respected,
that kindness is a wonderful promoter of happiness, than this harmony
between creature and circumstance and condition? Childrens sympathies
re easily aroused. Their willingness to do acts of beneyolnee and con-
strudiye good IS as great as their seeming desire to be destructive, if only
they are shown the way.
With children, it is as easy to do, as to know what were good to be
done. The great problem is to give them the right thing to do. Such
delight is theirs to be the bearers of the Thanksgiving and Christmas
baskets to the needy; what pleasure it gives them to care for the lame boy
who 81 o be carried up and down the school steps, four times a day; what
Joy they find in being responsible for the supply of fresh water for the
animals in a certain part of the block. 1t is action they want. 1t is action
they will have. To render service to the beasts is to appreciate the service
rendered by them.
Service will bring a reaction which will result in more genteness,
less selfshness, less cruelty and more peace. Let us teach our boys and girls
that justice, mercy and love which shall enable them to make the most
of life.

It Is the Roads That Have Brought Prosperity
to This Wisconsin County


The roads are our vital asset here in Forest county. Without them
we could expect little o r nothing in the way of advancement up here.
1t is the roads that have brought every bit of prosperity to this country.
They have opened it, not only to the thousands of summer vacation
lists who return year after year with money to spend and Improvements
to make, but also to the steady, reliable settlers who are clearing the land,
producing bigger crops each season, building up the towns and industries,
and advancing the value of every foot of ground.
They have also brought in almost unlimited financial resources from
the wealthy sportsmen who have established summer homes. These sports
men have taken a direct interest in the country, and it is their money,
loaned in every worthy project, that makes our growth possible. Our
farmers, NV and old, no longer find trouble in financing any of their
operations.
More than 100000 is being spent on new road work in the county
this year, devoted largely to improvement of those branching from the
main highways.

Modern Girl Has No Heart, No Soul-If She
Has She Will Not Admit 1t
By FRANK X. L~EYENDECKER. American illustrator.

The modern girl has no heart, no soul, no sentiment-if she has she
refuses to admit it. You do not dare to talk to the happer of classics
nor of other serious things, for she simply will make no attempt to absorb
them. She is idle frivolous and needless of tomorrow. However, | will
admit that she is charming and often irresistible.
She looks o young, but knows s o mueh-much that she could do
well not to know. She assumes no responsibility. She seeks nothing but
amusement. When a boy reaches the fapper age he usually has some
obligation to fulfill. He gets a job, or else he is branded Is a loafer. The
girl, however, spends her time reading frothy literature and smoking.
In my opinion the only hope of the nation rests upon the working
girl. She has more originality and individuality than the Aapper, who
looks to me IS if she were made from a die. Each working girl has her
particular style in clothes and couture. But the happerl How can you
tell one from another?
