held responsible for what she couldn't
have in the way of education or posi-
ton but wherein l would help her, she
doesn't seem to think she should make
any effort to improve herself or asso-
ciates. She feels that she was good
enough when l married her and that
| shouldn't kick now. Personally,
have stood all that can but will wait
until l hear from you.-DiscOuraged
Willie.
Dear Discouraged Willie: Appar-
emily her attraction for you was purely
sexual at the time of your marriage
and you failed to take into considera-
ton the other attributes that you
would want in your mate. 1t isn't as
if you only had you and your wife to
consider but two innocent babies are
involved. They deserve their home
and parents and any error committed
by you, should never be paid by them.
You made an error and admit it; now
be man. Try and avoid references
to the advantages you have had and
encourage her using the growing
babies as a good reason why all the
help she can give them will be to their
advantage.

B. Merrick in Police Court at Upper

An assault warrant against Judge
Ennis, sworn to by Town Bailiff Will
liam c. Mccormick. was served early

and was not required to post bond,

Office late Saturday when he saw
Bailiff Mccormick arrest two youths
and start with them to the office of
Justice of the Peace David E. Haller,
a half mile away. He said he ran
from his house and explained to

refused to let my Office be used as a
source Of revenue for the town."

Michigan Doctors
Approve Group
Medical Plan
Would Extend Services
To Families Under
ST, 500 Annual Income

By the Associated Press.
DETROIT, Jan. 9.-The Michi-
gan State Medical Society, through
its House of Delegates, approved
yesterday the principles of plans
for group hospital and group medi-
cal services for families with an
nual incomes of $500 and under.
The society authorized a special
committee to complete arrangements
of the plans and to establish rates
based on actuarial studies. The serv-
ices would be limited to persons
Under 65 years old.
The society will seek legislation
to enable establishment of a non
profit corporation to be known as
Hospital and Medical, Inc, which
would issue insurance to partici-
pants.
1t was estimated that at least
half of Michigan's 100000 resi-
dents would be eligible to participate
in the plans. DR.. Henry A. Luce,
Medical Society president, said the
rates would be as low as consistent
with actuarial experience.
Although the final rates deter
mined upon may vary, the tentative
plans were summarized as follows:
Hospitalization-In a ward, so
cents month for individual to $l.25
for family; semi-private service, rs
cents to SITS. These would privide
81 days hospital care first year, %
days second year, Is days third year,
q days fourth year and 80 days
subsequent years. General nursing
service, operating and delivery
rooms. surgical dressings and plas-
ter casts would be included.
Medical service-Alternate plans
Of unit service or time service
Under the unit service arrangement
a participant would be entitled to
a specified number of units of serv-
ice, with an Office call counted as
six units and a major operation 300.

Mr.. Jones has been running since
young boy-first on high school
cinder paths and then for civic

Saint Bernard Dogs
MAY Have Competition

MONTREAUx, Switzerland R.-The
famed dogs of the Hospice Grand st.
Bernard haven't been formally intro

arrived in Switzerlands mountains.
Six tough Hudson Bay huskies, COM
plete with dog sled and harness, arrived
in Switzerland to see how they like 1t.
If they work as well in Switzerland
they'll stay and more will come.
Jean Gabus, Swiss writer and explorer.
brought them back after an exploration
trip through the Hudson Bay region to
outlying Eskimo villages in the north.
Monks Of the Grand st. Bernard
hospice have asked him to inform them
how the dogs work in snow, for they are
believed to be stronger and to possess
pads to be better protected against tho
snow than the famed st. Bernard dogs.
