 mankind more than Detroit? Its busl- nesslike stoves and oil-burning fur naces have supplanted the romantic hearth. Its drugs have aided healing around the globe. Its electric refrig- orators have helped banish the iceman Most revolutionary of all, it put horse power under the feet of man.
 Where Automobiles Are Made.
 Most of America's automobile fac tories are adjacent to the Great Lakes. With 50O00000 tons year of iron ore and coal being borne south and north along the Detroit water front, and mill lions of tons of limestone from Calcite and Alpena passing it's wharves, De- troit seems the natural center for au- tomobile production. But the motor magnates emphasize the human side. In King, Olds, Leland and Ford, the city had group of ingenious. restless brains whose value was immeasurable.
 North of Detroit, there is limestone and salt, and enough fish to fill solid cars, which are rushed through to Chi cago and New York There are even at times special whitefish planes which fly the food to distant cities. But with such exceptions as Port Huron, Bay City, Alpena. Calcite, Mnskegon, and Gary, the lake shore in summer Is largely playground.
 Upper Michigan pictures Hiawatha as a golfer laying a supercourse which starts at Menominee, Escanaba, and Manistique; continues at delightful Blaney Park and St. lgnace before cross ing to Mackinac island and back to Ce- darville near Les CheneauX islands; plays on both the Michigan and On. tario shores of the "SoO"; drives past Newberry and M:!nising to Marquette and Ishpeming. in the iron country; detours into the copper territory at Cal. umet and Houghton-Hancock; takes a look at the Big Sea Water" at On. tonagon before turning from woods to irons at Ironwood and Iron river, and then rounds homeward to Menominee via Crystal Falls and Iron Mountain.
 Lake Michigan's influence on climate may be measured by orchards. From the cherries of Traverse City to the peace orchards near South Haven, the Michigan shore is one vast fruit belt. The cool lake breeZes from the west retard the blossoming and so prevent damage by frost.
 cherryland of Wisconsin.
 Thanks to the tempting influence of Green Bay, over whose portage Father Marquette and Joliet first reached the Mississippi. Door county is Wisconsins cherryland.
 In the canning factory at Sturgeon Bay neatly aproned operatives wait for the red cascade of cherries to come pouring down into their machines. What between cherries and summer resorts, Door county is busy place, and from the observation towers of Pen. insua and Potowatomi State parks one looks down on a wonderland of forest and water, tourists resorts, and cherry orchards decorated with signs reading, "Pick your own. one cent a pound"
 It is long jump westward from Cherryand to DulutE-Superior. the huskest twins on the lakes. Their ri yalry keeps alive local spirit, but their combined strength is of world wide i'm. portance.
 Two sand pits enclose the most pic. turesque and remarkable harbor of all those around our inland seas, with 4S miles of frontage and l7 miles of dredged channels. To the northwest bluff rises so steepy from the water that those who approach over the two main highways suddenly look over the edge of the plateau upon this expanse of city and harbor.
 AS long as grain is grown and the Mesab mines hold out. Duluth Superior will rank high among the ports of the world. As far as grain goes. they la. far behind Fort William and Port Ar thur; but down from the plateau comes a never ending procession of ore trains and back go the coal trains that carry heat to the homes and fuel to the fac tories of our great Northwest. Duluth Superior, as far as tonnage gees. ranks second only to New York.
