Timmy listened suspiciously at first, but soon made up his mind that White foot was telling the truth. The mere mention of Shadow the Weasel made him very sober.
 He scratched his nose thoughtfully. lover in that tall, dead stump you can see from here is an old homo of mine,' said he. No one lives in it now. I guess you can live there until you can find a better home. But remember to keep away from my storehouse."
 So it was that Whitefoot found a new home.

Words and Music of Song Compiled by
 Birmingham Man

@. NE of BirminEham's well known fl N and progressive citizens. Dr. E. NY E. Perkins, who Is an active
 member of the Norwood Cum berland Presbyterian church, mas found a little song, the words ana music of which have so appealeo 10 him that he has expressed the opin- ion that he would like to See 1t in every school or any or all other or ranizations where children sing.
 Substantiating this desire, he has had 5000 copies printed or My Creed." which is the title of tho song. the words by Edgar A. Guest, and the music by s. A. Ganus, the twain compiled by Dr. Perkins, for distrl- button.
 pr. Perkins has sent several hun drod conies of My Creed" to the Ayondale mills where music is large lv a part of the welfare work and to the High school at Odenville. and it Is his purpose to distribute the song to a number of rural schools as well as those in Greater Birmingham.
 pr. Perkins sent a number Of copies of My Creed' to the Assistant Dean of Vanderbilt university, J. H. Phillips, who writes him as follows;
 "Thank you for the copies of My Creed" which you were so kind as 10 send us. I am sure the lines OK press your sentiments and may be taken as an index of your character"
 pr. Perkins believes that the lines of the little song which arc as fol- lows, are as good creed as any man or woman can live by and make successful life:
 ITO live as gently as l can
 To be no matter where-a man To take what comes of good or Ill And cling to faith and honor still; To do my best and let that stand The record of my brain and hand; And then should failure come to me Still work and hope for victory. To have no secret place wherein 1 stoop unseen to shame or sin; To be the same when I'm alone As when my every deed is known i; To live undaunted, unafraid
 Of any step that l have made, To be without pretense or sham, Exactly what men think 1 am To leave some simple mark behind, To keep my having lived in mind If enuity to aught l show.
 To be an honest generous foe; To play my little part, nor whine That greater honors are not mine: This. I believe is all I need,
 For my philosophy and my creed.

16S,lO9 disabled veterans have been
interviewed TO date in the National
cleanup campaign Of the u. S. Vet

inaugurated for the purpose of in
forming all disabled veterans Of the
benefits to which they were entitled
under the various soldier relief acts,
and for the purpose of preparing and
filing claims of such veterans who
wished to file claims against the gov
vernment for disabilities received in

Gated that there were thousands Of
veterans throughout the United States
who were unaware of the benefits to
which they were entitled and ignorant
of the procedure of applying for this
compensation.
Supplementing this general clean
up campaign the Director Of the Bu-
reau inaugurated hospital cleanup
campaign whereby these cleanup
squads have visited during this hos
pital cleanup campaign all institu-
tions where beneficiaries of the u. S.

This effort on the part of the Vet

disabled veterans entitled to its bene-
fits has received the commentator of

COAL co. SOLD
FULLER COAL COMPANY TOOK
OVER BUSINESS OF FIRM
HERE SATURDAY.

The Brown Ward Coal Company of
this city has been sold to the Fuller
Coal Company, in which Floyd Fuller,
we'll known young resident of this
city, is the moving factor. The new
company took over the business Sat
urday of last week.
The Brown Ward Coal Company be-
came interested in the coal business
from p. NJ. Smith, who had owned the
business for some years. George Ward
of Detroit Ccame to Alma at the
time and has been the manager of the
concern. He expects to return to De-
troit in the near future to resume
work.
The Fuller Coal Company, just re-
Gently organized with the view Of pur-
chasing the Brown-W Ward Coal Com
pany, while a new organization, has
behind it people who are well known
in the city. Mr.. Floyd Fuller, man
ager of the new concern, had been
with the Alma State Savings Bank for
a period of three years, prior to the
organization Of the new company. He
was employed at the bank as teller.

Laurence Ellison
Opens NelU Store

The building which has just been
remodelod at 2l9 W. Superior St, Al
ma, next to the Standard Oil Filling
Station and opposite Chevrolet and
Ford Garages will be occupied by
Lawrence Ellison with a complete line
of accessories, tires, electric bulbs for
all cars and all sizes for residence use.
In choosing the line Of General Auto
and Truck Tires MIR. Ellison states
that the greatest problem the tire
dealer has today is shall | carry sew
eral lines Of tires, some that are
cheaper or practically as good or
will sell only merchandise in which
| viii stake my future in this bust
ness The best evidence that a tire
is right is the success of the factory
producing il. The General Tire &
Rubber Co. closed the most success
full year in its history, in fact their
1921 sales were 30 per cent ahead Of
1920. Out Of l20 Of the largest deal
ers in General Tires in the United
States fifty do the largest tire bust
mess in their respective cities, that is
important centers like Boston, Phila-
delphia, pittsburg and other repre-
sentative centers. In order for man
ufacturer TO have continued success,
their dealers must be successful, still
more important their products must
be successful Points Of this kind
should cause more thought for the
auto owner than would be found in
any recital Of the details Of tires
construction, because there is as much
difference in tho material used in a
tire today rs in the many makes of
shoes.

Knights Going
TO NelC Orleans

At the regular conclave Of Owosso

voted to add to the funds now in pos
session Of the drill team, an amount
sufficient to pay the fare of 80 Sir
Knights who will represent the local
commandery at the triennial in April.
This assures the Owosso commandery
special to New Orleans. 1t will leave

Parties of Sir Knights and ladies
from Port Huron, Flint, Durand, ST.
Johns, Ithaca, Howell, Ann Arbor,
jackson, Kalamazoo, Bay City and
Saginaw, nave signifed their intcn.
tion of joining Owosso on this trip.
Several special car parties have been
arranged for by the various comman-
deries.
Transportation conditions limit the
party to 250 persons and space is be-
ing rapidly reserved in this train,
which will be one Of the few to leave
from Michigan.
The transportation committee, con-
sisting Of Sir Knights Parvin, Hume
and Steck, is busy completing the
details and booking the accommoda-
tions. They hope to complete this
work very soon.
The total cost Of this trip, S96.5O,

attractive proposition to the Knights
Templar in this part of Michigan,
and Owosso Commandery assures a
