at Jackson, Mich. All these positions
have given him a world of experience
and his natural gift of speech has en-
abled him to clothe these thoughts In
words which glisten like fire. Forkell
should have the largest audience of the
Chautauqua. He will leave a message
which will never be forgotten.
Probably the lecture by which he is
best known Is entitled "The Re-Discoy-
cry of America"
America has been known from her
first discovery as the land Of unlimited
material resources and opportunity. 1t
took the crises of the great war, how
ever. to reveal not only her great eco
nomic power, but wonderful ldea1is-
tic and spiritual development. A new
vision of America and the part she
must play in the affairs of the world
as its savior.
Writing from Washington, d. c.,
United States Senator Charles e.
Townsend of Michigan says: william
Forkell Is one of the most interesting
and popular public speakers whom I
have heard. Bright, clear and elo-
Quent, he is vigorously demanded for
return engagements"

LOT SALE ADJOURNED
AT KINNICKINNIC PARK

Because of failure of statesmen to
receive real estate licenses in time
for the sale Saturday it has been
necessary to adjourn the sale until
the licenses are received. Applica-
tions had been sent in for these
licenses, but the licenses did not ar
rive in time.
A large crowd gathered at the plat.
They were fed and taken care of as
agreed, Notwithstanding the neces-
sity Of postponement Of the sale by
statesmen, and went away happy and
enthusiastic over the property. Con-
tracts were closed for the sale of
about one-tenth of the lots without
the aid of the sales force.
This new addition to our city is
bound to be great success. Thous-
ands of dollars are being put into
improvements on the tract SO that the
lot owners can enjoy its benefits of
city water, side walks, graded
streets, trees, etc. The lots are very
large to permit extensive gardens;
much larger than other lots in the
city. And the prices are very low
considering the improvements being
made
The sale will be continued within
few days. Watch these columns
for further announcements.
