LAUREL. May 2s.-Laurel is TO
have the State highway through the
town, this fact becoming a reality
this week. and the contractors,
Field, Barker & Underwood. have
already started moving the machin-
cry and equipment necessary to
grading and laying out the road.
The question Of the State high
way running through Laurel has
been before the public for a consid-
erable time. and the project held up
time after time, due 10 the fact that
the town council Of North Laurel
and Laurel could never agree on
the selection OF a route through the
two towns. North Laurel people
desired the road TO go direct through
their town by way OF Delaware
avenue on the Laurel side or the
river. and the town council OF
Laurel maintaining that II such was
done. the road would be particularly |
dangerous on account OF having so |
many crooks and turns in Il.
II has been decided TO leave the |
question OF a route for the road up
10 the State Highway Commission.
The State Highway Commission
finally acted upon this and after
surveying both routes, accepted the
most direct route and bids for the
construction Of the road asked for.
Following this, another obstacle
looned up before the commission.

MANIFESTED FINE SPIRIT

A fine spirit of cooperation was
manifest this year in Alma when the
annual Christmas baskets were sent
out to those in need. All the investi-
eating work was accomplished by the
investigating committees of the Alma
Welfare Association and data was
thus available for the use of the va
rious organizations interested in this
work. The Salvation Armay leaders
and the Elks compared their lists
with the lists compiled by the We'll
fare Association so that little or no
duplication was made. About 100
baskets were sent out by these or
ganizations and each contained n
chicken, nuts, candies, all kinds Of
vegetables, groceries, and toys made
by the Manual Training Deartment
of the public school.
Contributions of money were
made to the Welfare Association
by the inmates of Wright Hall who
went without desserts for this pur-
pose, by the Art Club who donated
the total net receipts of the concert
recently given by them, and by the
Woman's Club. All the churches of
the city, the w. c. T. U. and the pub
lis schools donated clothing, fruit
and vegetables. Personal gifts were
also received from various merchants.
By means of this plan the work
was well systematized and was easily
and efficiently handled. The city of
Alma is to be congratulated upon the
fine spirit of cooperation thus mani
tested.

Haze Not Yet
Got License Plates

The branch office Of the Secretary
of State, conducted here by Sharrar
& Watson, for the sale Of 1923 auto
mobile and truck license plates is a
busy place these days, but in spite of
the large number Of plates that have
already been sold, business must take
decided boom within the next few
days if anything like a good proper
tion Of the people of this vicinity are
to be supplied with the 1923 plates by
the first of the year
Mr.. Sharrar estimates that about
thousand sets of plates have been sold
so far. He believes that there are
about 5000 automobiles and trucks in
this vicinity that will need automo-
bile and truck licenses, so it is evil
dent that only about one-sixth Of
them are ready for operation when
the new year is ushered in.
Many people Of course do not ex-
pect to get under the wire and secure
licenses by January l, 1923, as
large number of automobile owners
rarely attempt to drive their cars
during the winter. The number who
use their automobiles and trucks al
most daily, runs well into the thou
sands in this vicinity, however, and
they will need the plates at an early
date.
AS the time limit for securing
plates is now running short the Shar-
rar & Watson office will probably be
a mighty busy place for the balance
of the week.

HUNDREDS Of
CHILDREN ARE
GIVEN TREATS
Community Christmas Tree of
the Legion Proved Popular
with Young and Old.
CarOling Feature
of the Exercises

Many were the children who were
made happy and who were given a
most enjoyable treat Sunday evening
at the community Christmas tree
sponsored by the George w. Myers
Post No. 1872, American Legion, and
just as certain is it that many and
many a father and mother derived a
great amount of pleasure from the
moments that were given to their
children and to the children Of friends
and of neighbors.
The evening was warm one for
the time Of year, and in spite of the
fact that a light mist was falling
hundreds Of children and their par
ents turned out for the caroling and
the popcorn balls and the candy that
was presented to the kiddies.
Under the direction of Mr.. Davis
two musical numbers were given in
which the voices Of the little children
joined in with their parents, the final
selection being Holy Night"
After the songs the children were
asked to form in line south on State
street from the community tree, MAX
ing a line several children in width
and extending almost to Center ST.
The line being formed, the children
marched north to the tree, where they
were presented with gum, popcorn
balls, and candy, members of the
Legion, and city employees keeping
busy for some little time in handing
out the treats to the little folks.
Each night during the holiday sea-
son the big Christmas tree, secured
after long search by DR.. c. F. Du-
Bois, is being lighted, furnishing a
daily reminder of the Yuletide season
with its spirit of JOY and happiness
which comes from the pleasure Of
giving.

Skid-PrOOf HighlUGys
NOLU Being Sought

How to make the modern highway
skid-proof is an engineering problem
to which the National Motorists AS
sociation is going to direct it's atten-
ton this coming year. The number Of
automobile accidents accompanied by
fatalities which can be attributed to
slippery pavement surfaces has been
sufficient in past years to make solu-
tion of the problem Imperative.
An announcement just made pubhc
says in part:
Thus far the problem Of construct
ing and maintaining a smooth nom
skid road has bafrled the skill of an
engineer. The only non-skid pave
mcnts in the country are those con-
structed Of bricks or blocks Of gran
itc.
a concrete roadway can be made
non-skid by scarifying or roughening
the surface before the top finishing
hardens, but experience shows that it
will not stay non skid. Earth, waste,
oil drippings from traffic, all fill up
the crevices in short order with the
result that the road is soon without
the non-skid feature
Feeling that the time has come
when the utmost in skill and science
should be brought into play in build
ing American highways, the National
Motorists Association intends to CO.
operate to the fullest extent. A study
will be made to determine whether
concrete and asphalt surfaces can be
made as skid-proof as brick or gram
ite block.

Christ of the 5th District, at their
meeting held at the home Of Rev. II.
H. Anderson, in Alma, Friday after
noon, for next years assembly, which
will convene July % to August 5, is
sure TO be one Of the biggest and
strongest programs in the history Of

While nothing definite can be
promised as yet, steps will be taken
at once to secure the services Of +.
w. Thornton, +. j. Mecham, Mrs.
Florence Waterman and Miss Heron,
celebrated Sunday School Workers
connected with the Standard Publish
ing Company at Cincinnati, Ohio, for
morning and afternoon Sunday
School conferences, for the first
week. These people appeared on the
first program Of the Assembly at
Rock Lake, and their return will be
welcomed by everyone who heard
them. At present it is the plan of
Mr.. Thornton and his family to spend
the entire sumner at Rock Lake.
Rev. p. II. Welshimer, pastor of the
Church of Christ at Canton, Ohio,
and Superintendent Of his own Sun
day School, which is estimated the
largest in the world, is also pros
pective speaker for the evenings of
the first week. Rev. Highly, Of the
Franklin ST. Church in Grand Rapids
and Cecil Sharp of Hammond, Ind,
are also scheduled 20 appear during
the last week. The latter, if plans
materialize, will conduct a group
Evangelistic congress, which viii in
clude Indiana and Ohio, during the
last three days of the assembly. The
music will undoubtedly be in charge
of Mr.. Clark and Miss Sells, who

College Schedules
CLASSY Opponents

The Alma College basket ball
schedule this year will be the heavi-
est that has ever been undertaken.
This much is certain, although the
card is not yet ready to announce.
In addition to the regular Michigan
Intercollegiate contests games are
booked with Mt. Pleasant and West
ern State Normal, Valparaiso Uni
versity, University of Detroit and M.
A. c.
Four of the Michigan Intercol-
legiate schools are to be played
twice, in home and home affairs. Mt.
Pleasant Normal of course will be
played twice, because Of the great
court rivalry between these schools.
The first contest will be at Mt. Pleas
ant Immediately after the holiday va
cation ends. The game is scheduled
for January 5.
The team will jump to Detroit on
January 20 to meet the University
of Detroit court team, which last
year, fell before the onslaught of the
Campbellites.
On February II, right at the
height of the basketball season the
aggregation will drop to East Lans-
ing to meet the Michigan Aggies on
their own court.
The biggest home attraction of the
season will be the appearance here of
the Valparaiso University five, which
is expected to meet the Alma team
here February l.
1t is expected that the complete
schedule will be given out immediate
ly after the holiday vacation ends.
