Special Precautions Taken to Care Men Who Work Under

What are the "bends?"

What are the "bends?' Every orc
is talking about them.

Broadie, for twenty two years a "sand-

nothing more or less than cramps caused
by the air not getting out from under

finds that he is able to work with far
more ease than on the surface. In
fact, 1t is not until he comes to the sur
face that he really feels the extent Of
his exertion.
Must Be Teetotalers
1t is essential for all men who in.
tend taking up compressed air work to
quit drinking liquor and take good care
Of themselves.
"Often men who do not eat proper
food are taken with the bends in the
stomach when they come out of the

Broadie said that four times he had

The reason is that men who are
afflicted with bends at the base of the

thought intoxicated and are sent to hos

new HOME FOR
NEEDY CHILDREN
Mennonite Brethren In Christ
Presented With 1873 Acre
Farm

Last week Elder r. M. Dodd
and Mr.. Arthur Cellar were over
to Almont, Mich, where they went
in company with others in the in
terest of perfecting an organiza-
tion for the promotion of a home
for dependent children.
Miss Ruth Taylor, of Detroit,
has given to the Mennonite Breth-
ern in Christ church a farm of
1873 acres and personal property,
valued at $4,000 for the begin
ming of such home. This farm
is located one half mile east and
one and one-half miles north of
Almont, Mich.
The favors of the home will be
bestowed up to it's capacity upon
children from any source whatso-
ever; that is, it will be undenom-
national in its benefits but will
be managed by a board of direc-
tors chosen from among this
church.
1t is intended to have the home
in readiness to receive children
as fast as funds permit.
This farm and surroundings
present a splendid environment
for such an undertaking; good
butter, milk and eggs, and lots of
fresh air together with a Christ
ian influence all go together to
make this desirable place for
those unfortunates who need such
an institution for their proper
care and comfort
1t is also intended to eventual
ly have upon this same farm a
home for aged people who may
need care in their old age.
This is Christian work and in
keeping with the following scrip
ture and other like passages:
Pure religion and undefiled
before God and the Father S
this, to visit the fatherless and
widows in their affiiction and to
keep himself unspotted from the
world" James 1.27.

MUSIC STUDY CLUB

The Music Study club held one
of its largest and most inspiring
meetings of the year on Tuesday
afternoon, at the home of Mrs.
Frank Andreae, about forty being
present.
1t was the meeting in honor of
Easter-time and the musical part
of the program was appropriate
to the occasion.
The first number was solo,
"Sing a Song of Easter, by Mrs.
Jean Cavanagh, accompanied by
Helene Wilson. Current Events
followed, this being varied from
the paper usually given by one,
four members donating a few
items of musical interest this
time; Mrs. Barth. Mrs. Peacock,
Mrs. Staley and Miss FELTON,.
A selection was then given by
a double male quartette consist
ing of Sam and Archie Ludington,
Dick Staley, Max Fead, Donald
Mcintyre, Willard Cough, Mr.
Drayton and Fred Schumm. They
sang "The Man of Gallilee," and
though refusing an encore, when
they reached the vestibule on
their way out, they favored with
one of their popular songs.
A piano solo came next by Le-
ona Holcomb who played "To A
Wild Rose" and her encore was
"The Indian Lodge" both Nc
DowelPs compositions.
An excellent paper on music
was read by Miss Lambkin, and
the last number on the program
was filled by Mrs. York, who sang
Prayer Perfect" with words by
James Whitcomb Riley, followed
by I'm the Time Of Roses" ac-
companied by Mrs. Stroup.
The Easter program Of the Mu-
sic club was a delightful treat,
each number being thoroughly en-
joyed. The program committee
was heartily congratulated upon
the successful meeting.

CONGRESSMAN CRAMTON
HAS INFLUENTIAL
PLACE IN CONGRESS

''No district in Michigan has
better representation in the low
er house than has the Seventh.
No congressman in the House
Office Building is a harder work.
er than is Mr.. Cramton. Through
his extended service in the House
has has gradually worked up in
to greater influence.
He is at present the ninth
member of the Committee on APP
preparations containing thirty
five members, the best committee
assignment that any member
from our district has ever had
excepting Conger and Whiting,
both of whom were on the Ways
and Means committee. At pres
ent every dollar of the govern
ment's expenditures goes through
this committee. Mr.. Cramton is
chairman of one of the important
subcommittee having charge of
the Interior Department approp-
ration bill. This is now under
consideration in the House. 1t
carries an appropriation of over
two hundred and ninety-five mil
lion dollars and includes such
activities as the Reclamation SER
vice, National Park Service, the
General Land Office. Bureau of
Patents, Bureau of Pensions, Bu-
reau of Mines. Geological Survey,
Indian affairs, etc.
Further and what will appeal
most to the great majority of
people of the district is the fact
that in all Mr.. Cramton's years
of service in the House, he has
always preserved his independ-
ence and is as free of any dicta-
tion from the old gang as he was
in 1910. He has also preserved
his independence in the House
and has affiliated with the farm
bloc" Mt. Clemens Daily Tri-

OBITUARY

Henry Johnston, whose death
on April 5th, we noticed in the
Expositor last week, was born in
Ireland in 1843, and was 70 years
of age at the time of his death.
Mr.. Johnston was a pioneer Of
Brockway township, coming here
some fifty-fve or more years ago,
he bought what was known as
the Jack Cheeseman farm of 80
acres, which was then one vast
forest. He cleared enough of
this to build a log house and barn
and then went to Canada, where
he married Ellen Haddon. Re-
naming there nearly two years,
when he returned to the log house
in the woods, he brought wife and
baby.
All the hardships of the early
Michigan pioneer was theirs.
Wheat was raised around the
stumps of trees cut down. Bear
and deer meat furnished much of
their living and while only a few
acres of land could be cultivated,
Mr.. Johnston worked in the lum-
Der camps during the winters.
But as the years passed and chill
dren came to bless and to help,
cultivated fields came to replace
the primeval forest, better build
ings housed family and stock and
the old early trials and handicaps
were dedicated to the background.
and life went sweeping on to meet
the better and larger civilization.
This is the history of all the
early settlers. This sketch of the
life of our good friend Henry
Johnston may be applied to all
and all have won their victory
over the land which they were
first to possess and to till, until,
in these later days of rich frui-
tion, they have felt their noble
efforts crowned with success and
have rested from their labUrs
Twelve children came to Mr..
and Mrs. Johnston, ten of whom
are now living who will comfort
and care for their widowed moth
er:-They are, Henry, at home;
Mrs. VIM. Newell, Brockway; Mrs.
G. H. Cavanagh, Yale; Thomas,
Yale; Jerry, Birmingham; Hugh,
Petoskey; Mrs. P. w. Burns, Bay
City; Mrs. Neil Stirling, Bad
Axe; Alex, Port Huron and Ed.
of Harbor Beach.
The funeral services were held
at two o'clock Friday afternoon
from the home, with Elder Nc
Call officiating and the six sons
acting as pail bearers. Interment
was made in Elmwood cemetery
Out of town relatives who at
tended the Henry Johnston fun
eral were-Bert Wisner, of Hol-
ly, Jack Johnston of Snover. Mrs.
James Johnston and their two
sons of Peck.

BROWN CITY 81 YALE 2

Good, snappy baseball was fea-
tured at the opening game of the
high school schedule which was
played last Friday afternoon at
City Park.
Yale's opponents were the fast
playing High bunch from Brown
City, and our boys came out on
the small end of a 3 to 2 score.
The contest was a close one all
the way through, each team being
in fine form, and if the present
stride is kept up during the rest
of the season we can look for
some mighty interesting games.
