ty for the distribution Of coal in

The Weight of Your Voice

Don't be backward about
speaking a good word for this
town. 1t cOsts you nothing, and
its value is beyond measure.
You may imagine that the
weight Of your individual voice
is little avail. But you are iE
error.
Every good word counts-as
does every bad one.
Your individual opinion has
great weight with some. and rea-
sonable weight with others. There
is no one upon whom it does net
leave its impress.
When you point out the beau.
ties and advantages Of this COM
munity and the sterling qualities
Of its citizens, you stamp the4e
facts upon the minds of those
with whom you converse and they
in turn transmit them to others.
In this way the work becomes
an endless chain, always travel
ing, always boosting, always beck
oning to the stranger to coma
where good words and good deeds
abound, and where i'll ones are
seldom heard or seen
Every voice has its weight, and
yours is not the least Of all,

Attacked Mother, Now He
Must Pay S470 He Owes Her

Albert W. McNally of Yale was
placed on six months probation
and ordered to pay $470 to his
mother, Mrs. Elizabeth McNally,
when he pleaded guilty before
Fred w. George, assistant police
justice this morning on a charge
of assaulting his mother.
McNally told the court that he
attacked his mother because of a
quarrel he had with his brother at
home.
Mrs. McNally, the mother, ap-
peared in court, and asked the
Judge merely to see that her son
pay her $470 that he had borrow
ed from another man with her as
security. She had paid this sum
back, she said, when her son fail
ed to pay.
IL was mad, mother, and didn't
know what l was doing" the son
testified in court. He said he
would pay the money to her at
once.-Port Huron Times-Herald.

COME ON, BOYS

Guess by the looks Of things
around the city we will have
chance to chronicle a donation to
the city strong box each week.
On Thursday last, Laverne
Carroll, one of the deck hands at
the Woolen Mills behaved in
rather ungentlemanly manner.
His auto got the habit, too. and
zig-zagged Up the street in an un-
becoming way.
Saturday ne was picked up by
Marshal Henry ard the two visit
ed Judge Merrill. Laverne admit
ted having imbibed too freely of
the Juice of the STILL and upon
the judges recommendation he
donated $4,000 and costs, (the en-
tire amount footing up $25.00.)
With a long, cold winter star
ing the city officials in their +

good. And it's about the only way
to tame these lovers of moon

YALE 7; BROWN CITY 5

On Thursday of last week the

to Brown City to play return
game with that team and cleaned
up on them to the tune of Z to 5.

Travels OF a Dollar.

Consider the rounds of dollar
when spent at home.
The farmer receives it in ex-
change for produce he sells in town.
He payssit to the grocer for goods
he himself can't raise.
The grocer's wife must have a
new dress, and it goes to the dry
goods man.
That gentleman pays it to his
clerk and the latter hands it over to
the shoe dealer.
Mr. Shoe Dealer wants a new suit
and the clothing man gets it.
A car goes on the blink and the
clothier transfers it to the garage
man.
The garage man is pious sort of
a bird and drops it into the collec.
ton box at Sunday morning ser.
vices.
Then it reaches the church treas
nrer, and he tickles the palm of the
preacher with it, and the ministerial
gentleman slips it to the milliner in
exchange for hat for Mrs. Preacher
Or as part payment therefor.
Mrs. Milliner needs some face
cream, and the drug store gets it.
Then it goes to another grocer
for foodstuffs, and the grocer hands
1t over 10 the farmer for produce.
and the dollar starts off on another
round of calls.
A sort of endless chain, YOU
know, .,.a ~-~ ,-..,~.,,
But if the farmer had sent that
dollar to catalogue house, where
in heck would it have been by this
time, .-. ..,r,,.,,
/. certainly not in Richmond county.

When shivering in the cold this
winter do not allow your thoughts
to dwell too much upon shivering.
That is oppressive.
Turn them toward the warm and
sunny days of another summer.
That would be anticipative.
Dwelling too much upon disagree
able things shuts out the brighter
side of life. 1t stiles enthusiasm
and renders impotent many OF the
best efforts of mankind.
We have but one life to live upon
this earth. and that life will be on
ly as we make it.
Bright spots should be cultivated
until they become the predominant
side of existence. Dark ones should
be eradicated and then forgotten.
Shiyer-but think of the sum!

Use Your Bargain Eye.

A merchant doesn't spend money
morely for the purpose of seeing his
name in print. He is too much of
ii business man to part with his dol
lars unless there is a good prospect
of securing a legitimate return up
on his investment.
He doesn't advertise goods that he
can not recommend, because he
knows that such an imposition upon
the public in a country town would
soon put him out of business.
He doesn't gouge his customers,
because he knows they would soon
60 elsewhere and buy for less
money-and that would mean an
end to him.
1t is reasonable to suppose, there,
fore, that when he does advertise an
article that article is worth having
and the price is within reason.
When you buy from a local mer.
chant that merchants reputation
for square dealing is behind the
goods you buy.
Keep these common sense facts in
mind, and use your bargain eye
upon the advertising pages of this
paper and the merchants who USE
them. tHxa
