Co-ops Vote Cash To

Workers

ROCK, Mich.-(CNS)-The Coop
Store and Oil association OF this Upper
Peninsula farming community donated
800 to the relief of striking miners
in the Michigan iron mines, while the
smaller Coop Store in nearby Ish-
peming gave one-half of its 5000 total
net earnings for 1915 to the same
cause. The donations were voted by
the recent membership meetings of
the two associations.

ers is an adequate answer to the in
terests that are always trying to keep
the farmer and the city worker at
swords points," commented Arnold ].

Central Cooperative Wholesale, who
attended the meetings. "It proves
again that through the Cooperative
movement these two groups of Ameri-
can common men discover that their

what particularly impressed me-"

At the present time there are about
$50 projection machines in the state.
OF these, more than 200 are owned by
high schools. The library has two pro-
jectors. With such equipment once
more becoming available for civilian
use, it is very possible that within
the near future there will be more
than 500 machines in the state, with
an increasingly heavy demand for
films from the state.
Catalogs listing the names and num-
bers of most of the 1000 films are
available to all groups wishing to
