Every type of modern fireworks de- vice, the newest pyrotechnic sensations of this country and Europe will be included in the programs. Aerial effects, ground devices, set pieces, miniature spectacles, portrai ts of famous men in fire, these and countless other unusual numbers will be inter- spersed in the spectacular array. Truly there will be pictures pMnted in the sky by fireworks. ! While the great fireworks displays will be among the leading features of the entertainment program, there will also be special attractions during the afternoon and evening. Horse racing, music, grand stand and hippodrome acts and other numbers will be provided in endless succession for pa- trons of the 1924 exposition.

One of the features to be offered in fireworks will be "The Head-on-" Col- lision." This is one of the supreme pyrotechnic sensations of the year and will be shown in a vivid and real- istic manner for the first time in fireworks. "The Head-on Collision" is a daring', original innovation, and will show two mighty, throbbing locomo- tives, outlined in jets of fire, hurling themselves at each other on the in- field.

JAMES BROOKER WRITES HOME FROM PARIS

Olympic Athletes Have an I d e a l

P l a c e t o T r a i n a t

Colombes.

James Bi}ooker writes home from Paris, France, as follows:

i "We are ali settled here at Prince Murat's chateau. Although the chateau cannot accommodate the entire American team, the overflow is housed in li t t le houses, especially built for this purpose and large enough to accommodate twenty men, with showers and all conveniences necessary for comfort and training'. The only trouble is tha t we are about eight miles f rom Paris with practical- !y no way to get in and also no time. You see we work out twice a day and have to be in bed by 10:30. However, we will have several days af ter the games when we are to see everything of interest. "

"We landed at Cherbourg yesterday and it was a severL hour ride from there to Paris. The country was very beautiful and the people are very quaint, and one sees so many old people.

"From Paris we were driven out here by automobile. Our first n~ght was quite eventful. You see Prince Murat owns a considerable amount of land around here and a great many buildings. In the midst of the estate is the little Ville of Rocquien court with several salons and stores--a small group of dwellings. Last night about eight o'clock about 20 of us, walked down to the village and upon arriving found a store on fire from a short circuit in the electric l ight system. Of course the inhabitants were quite excited. We cut the wires and put out the fire, but this was no sooner done than two other houses caught from the same cause. As we went around the corner, a Frenchman fearing tha t his house migh t also catch fire, reached up to break the electric wire and was electrocuted before our eyes. I t was pitiful to see the p o o r fellow unable to let ~o of t h e wire until his hand burned off. Today a collection of two hundred dollars was taken up among us for his wife and two weeks' old baby. It al l was t6o horrible to imagine.

"There isn' t a great deal of news to write just at present, except tha t this is going to be an ideal place to train. We are going over to Colombes to the Olympic Stadium every day for practice. They take us over in sight seeing busses."

I Mr. Brooker no doubt found his first year's t ra ining in electrical engineer- mg ra ther handy dur ing his expert- ence in Rocquien court.

The trials for the pole vault were Wednesday of this week and the r~- su l t s of the finals on Thursday will no doubt be seen in the Fr iday dailies.

t Mr. Brooker thinks it's almost too much for people at home t o hope for him to win, nevertheless, they can hope just the same. He expects to return home Augus t 8 or 9! ! SEE MOST TALKED ABOUT

HOT ON TRAIL OF J CUMMON BARB[Ri Y BARBERRY WORKERS ASK FOR

CO-OPERATION OF CITIZENS

OF COMMUNITY.

J. L. Kidman, A. Edmunds, R. Rich- ards, G. E. Garver, G. H. Reynolds, V. J. Huttman, all of Lansing, of the barberry eradication forces, who are engaged in searching fa rms of Michi- gan for the common barberry bush which spreads black stem rust to g r a in , arrived in Card this week for the purpose of making' a thorough ih- spection of the portion of Tuscola county.

During" their stay in Tusco!a county they will check up on town properties on which common barberries pre- viously have been found, to make sure that the bushes have been destroyed and that no sprouts have appeared. Most of their time, however, will be occupied in visting the farms. They have been instructed to call at every farm in the county, notify the owner or tenant of the presence of barberries when bushes are found, and per- suade him to have them removed.

Persons who know of places where common barberries are growing are asked to notify the government agents at 146 Lincoln St., Caro. They also desire information of the location of bushes destroyed by the owners without notice ha~ing been given to the authorit ies. These locations then are noted on maps so that these places may be visited in resurveys underta- ken to check up on sprouts and seedlings or to discover the source of any rust tha t may appear in years to come. I t is the intention to keep, at the state College of Agriculture, a complete record of every proper ty in

~the state on which a common barberry bush ever grew.

Wild barberry bushes and seedlings are frequent ly found in the neighbor- hood of locations where the planted barberries were old enough to have produced berr ies . Birds eat the berries and scatter tha seeds in groves, wood lots, tree claims, etc. The seeds sometimes lie on the ground for five or six years before they begin to grow. Therefore it will be necessary to be on the lookout for seedlings in such locations for several years to come.

Ordinary rock salt is used to kill the bushes wherever the salt is not likely to damage any other bushes, trees or grass nearby. Where salt is not used, the bushes are dug up. It is necessary to get all the roots because any por- t ion of a root left in the ground will sprout.

The barberry scouts will be glad to assist anyone having" common barberry to destroy it~ They will carry specimens of the bush with them on their car in order that anyone who is not familiar with common barberry may see it and learn to recognize it.

A party of barberry scouts are engaged in a similar work as above outlined in Sanilac county.

To the young m a n who looks for- w a r d to mastering" a t r ade it can be suggested that the heads of industri- al enterprises are nearly all men who started at the bottom of the ladder and know the details of the business from its foundations. Every successful contractor has probably worked at the bench as a carpenter or with the trowel as a bricklayer. In this democratic country the man working at a trade is eligible to the highest positions of trust and honor.

You l ike to associa te with~ J o h n R e t h e r f o r d has r e t u r n e d home t h e m a n or w o m a n who is a lways f rom a few days ' visit wi th his b ro th - cour teous . This appl ies to bus iness as er at Royal Oak and s is ter in Det ro i t . we l l as to the social side of life. The m o r e friends you have the more bus iness you do and the p l ea san t e r each day passes by.

Cour te sy is n o t h i n g more t h a n good will . Good will is the founda t ion upon w h i c h business is built . Good wil l is founded sole!y on f r iendship . Remem- be r well this thought The corner- s'cone for good-will and friendship is courtesy.

The habi t of f leeing f rom finan- cial obl igat ions , r a t h e r t hau .meeting t h e m square ly and, if necessary , ar- r a n g i n g for their later satisfaction, destroys confidence and credit.: A person to whom payment is due, likes to have a man explain what he can do and what he cannot do, and not seek postponement through cunning avoidance. People cannot always pay as they had planned, but they can have the manly courage to state their positions instead of going around Robin Hood's barn to s h i r k respons ib i l i ty and seek conceal- men t .

J. and better mileage is in the fact that "once a Red Crown user, always a R e d Crown customer."

Red Crown extra mileage is dependable. Wherever you get Red Crown the quality is the same. The extra miles come from complete combustion.

Every drop of Red Crown is con- verted into power, because the chain of boil ing point fract~ns is unbroken and combustion is perfect. There is no waste to Red Crown°

The perfect combustibility of Red Crown not only produces an unbroken flow of smooth, rhythmic power and extra mileage, but it gives added fle:dbility. That's why the engine responds to the throttle with superlative smooth- ness and zest with Red C r o w n in the tank.

In fact, Red Crown sums up the service ideals of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). It is as reliable in bad weather as in good; on a grade as on the level; in mud as along a boulevard; and you can get it every few blocks in the city and every few miles in the country - - everywhere, throughout the Middle West

A quar te r of a c en tu ry ago Mich- igan was one of the g rea tes t t imber producing s ta tes of the nation, but in 1922 Michigan people paid $15¢ 000,000 in f re ight on t imber impor ted into the state. E d w a r d Cochrun, secre- ta~, o~ t h e state conservation corn o mission, declared in an address here. The state conservation department, in co-operation ~ith federal authori- ties, is p l a n t i n g t rees in approxi- mate ly 5,000 acres of cutover land. If legislat ive appropr ia t ion can be secured, the plan is to double t h e

plant ing acreage every two years.

The Iron Mour.tain plants of t h e

Ford Motor company will re turn to a six-day working week in the near future, acco rd ing to reports . The cur- t a i lment of opera t ions at all plants has made possible the rushing of ma- ch inery here to equip a third body ~lant. According to the report , this is expected to go into operation shortly. While it is declared mr- likely that additions to the working staff will be made, the opening of the new plant will provide sufficient work to put the Iron Mountain plants back on a six-day week.

Representatives of the Michigan Electric Railway company appeared before the state public utilities com- mission recently to protest the valua- tions fixed on the company's various properties by the last appraisal. They claim that values, when the appraisal was made were unusually low in com- parison to the present worth of the property. An increase in the valua- tion probably would not affect rates, as the interurbans are now collecting the maximum fares under the Glaspie interurban rate act.

The appoin tment of 82 addi t ional Letter carr iers in Detroi t has been announced by P o s t m a s t e r John W. Smith. This brings the total of car- rier appointments since Smith as- sumed control of the office up to 278. In the same period 13 supervisoTs and 280 postoffice clerks have been appointed, making a total of 571 new employes engaged during the last two years. The entire postal force now numbers around 2,800.

Only a heavy rain will prevent the almost total loss of this year's hay crop in Dfckinson County, according to Arthur Lonsdorf, county agricul- turist. The crop in the sandy sections already has been cut in two and that of the loam and clay sections, hit hard by the late spring, will suffer heavily if rain does not come. Farm- ers have been advised to plant emer- gency crops.

While wading, Edward Wohl- schied, 18 years old, stepped into deep water and was drowned in Grand River near Westphalia. His brother, Marion, 12, narrowly escaped when he also stepped off a slielf into deep water. Although neither of the boys could swim, Marion struggled back to shore. 2he older boy's body was recovered.

Dr: R. M. Olin, state health commissioner, has announCed the small- pox quarantine imposed on circuses, carnivals and street fairs lifted. Ac- cording to Dr. Olin, between 1,500,000 and 2,000,000 persons have been vaccinated in Michigan since the campaign for I00 per cent vaccination started, and conditions are vastly improved,

In its campaign to get out a big vote at municipal , s ta te and nat ional elect ions, the board of di rectors of the Lansing Chamber of Commerce has adopted a resolut ion urging the enac tmen t of a compulsory voting law. It has announced . The board would disfranchise and fine all legal voters who failed to regis ter and vote.

The Allegan county board of supervisors has voted to pay Mrs. Lill ian Mayhood $500 for in jur ies suffered when her horse became f r ightened at a county road scraper and ran away, throwing her from the buggy. Mrs. Maywood had i m i m a t e d she would ins t i tu te a suit for damages .

The const ruct ion of a centra l heat- ing plant , to serve both the Kalama- zoo Sta te Hospi ta l ~and the Wes t e rn Michigan Normal School, has been author ized by ~he S ta te Administra- t ive Board. It will cost about $276¢ 000 and will be loca ted at the has. pital.

Mason county supervisors are to be penal ized he rea f t e r for coming late to sessions, according to a resolut ion adopted unanimously . Members who are half an hour late will be marked absent and lose one-half day's pay.

A reduct ion o~ $2,720,173 in the valuat ion of Manis tee county 's real es ta te was adopted by the board of supervisors as r e c o m m e n d e d by the equal izat ion commit tee . This br ings the total valuat ion of both real e s t a t e

and personal p roper ty down to $14,- 793,144, as aga ins t $17,725,072 last year .

By a vote of 12 to 6, the Monroe county board of supervisors have decided t o re ta in the services of a court. ty school nurse the coming year.

T HE wonderful portable PAGE Milker ~nothing to install~comes complete and ready to use ~ just move it il,

and start milking. Mr. Dairyman, here is a milker that does the work and does it right ~ and that you can ~ try out without first putting a lot of trappings in your barn. The simple milker ~ so simple that's why it can be sold at such astound- ing rock bottom prices. And because the PAGE is simple, it is better and more practical for the farmer. Your choice of models: hand operated, gas engine, or electric. Think of it, only $123.00 for the hand operated milker!

Phone or Write I am using the Page Milker on my own herd. i[ know what it has done to relieve me of the drudg-. e~w of milking. Come and see it work on my cows. See what it can do for you. Just call me by phone or drop me a post card and we'll arrange for a demo~stratian--without obligation to you°

W h y not ge t at the cause? ~Jse Doan's P i l l s ~ a s t imulant diur- .etic to the kidneys. Thousands recom- mend Doan's. Read wha t a res ident of this locality says:

Wesley Gotts, electrician, 235 S. Buffalo St., Bad Axe, Mich., says: " M y back was lame and a heavy, p r e s s ing feel ing across my kidneys kep t me on pins and needles. When I stooped and tr ied to s t ra ighten, I winced wi th pain and mornings I fel t t i red out. F r e q u e n t dizzy spells would confuse me, too.
