Here he was city editor, taking care of Municipal and court work, and also covered the 1929 session of the state legislature for th« Herald and the Detroit Free Press. In all his work be was most thorough and painstaking, and won the friendship of those with whom he came in contact by his unfailing fairness. IR Dec, of 1929, he was appointed by Gov. Fred W. Green as his secretary and after the retirement of Gov. Green to private life, became, on Jan. .1, 1931, deputy state treasurer, continuing in that office for five years. ' " • . • '
During this period of his life he became widely known throughout the state, for his efficient service in public office. On his return to Grand Rapids he occupied a high position in business life, was comptroller for Burkey and Gay furniture man ufacturers, and office manager for the Muir Drug Co.
Several years ago he went back to his earliest, and, we believe, his best loved field of work—the newspaper business. He purchased a weekly suburban paper—the Burton Heights Record—which he was conducting most successfully at the time of his death.
He was married on Feb, 14, 1917 to Miss Cleo Carmody,. an Owosso girl, also engaged on the force of the Argus Press at the time. Her tragic death in an automobile accident occurred on Nov. 7, 1935. On Feb. 20, 1937, he was united in marriage to his surviving widow—the former Miss Grace I. Jensen; Other survivors are his parents—Mr. and Mrs, Geo, M. Beemer, of Owosso, and two brothers—Harold of Henderson, and Lloyd of Detroit—with their families. •
Funeral services for the deceased were held 0" Monday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock in the Park Avenue Con. gregational church of Grand Rapids, of which Mr. Beemer had been a member for years. The church was filled to capacity for the obsequies, and the floral remembrances were many and most beautiful. Interment was made in Grand Rapids.

at McCurdy IPark, it has been found necessary in the interests of public safety to enforce strictly the parking regulations. They have taken the form of parking in the circular drive in front of the east entrance to the Community Building, thus blocking it, and creating a distinct hazard in case of fire in the building, and also other threats to public safety and convenience. The no parking zones on Norton and Mack st's must be respected also.

Snow removal from the roads in the township is going to be up to the townships themselves this winter it seems, at least part of the cost of it. This owing to the financial straits ia which the Road Commission finds itself. About $1000 for each town* ship, or an average of $35 per mile, was the cost of snow removal last winter. Now the Commission find! it necessary to bill each township for the work as it is done, and in sons* townships, this arrangement it satisfactory to the township officials.

CLEVELAND.—A man who get* paid for deciding on other men's job qualifications says that the character of a job-seeker's wife la as important as his own ability.
Regardless of how bright a candidate for a swivel-chair may be, George Trundle turns thumbs down if the man's wife nags, drink*, talks too much or is overly critical'
"We wouldn't think of olacing a man in an important job without first finding out what hie wife ia like," added Trundle, president of Trundle Engineering company.
The theory is that a wife who doesn't measure up to "her ewsv job" will keep a husband too disturbed to be successful in his.
"We used to spend six or seven years training men and then often lose them when they became really valuable—because of their wives. We just aren't doing that any mom —it's too expensive/' Trundle said.
Animal Costumes For Christmas
Polish children masquerade in animal costumes on Christmas Eve. It's done to honor the legend that attributes the power of speech to birds and animals during the midnight hour of Christmas Eve in recognition of the animals who, sharing the stable of Bethlehem, warmed the Holy Infant with their breath.

t*»Y«»r Plan for Africa {oils Bade Iran Ctrtaii
Britain is rolling back the dark curtain from the heart of the African continent through a 10-year plan for colonial development.
British taxpayers are pouring nearly 60 million pounds (240 mil' lion dollars) in direct expenditure, in addition to many millions of pounds on their Overseas Food corporation which baa a borrowing power of 55 million pounds (220 million dollars) and the Colonial Development corporation backed by 110 million pounds (440 million doHars).
Vast social and economic projects are starting to operate in 14 African territories under British administration. Between them, these colonial governments will contribute upwards of 80 million pounds (320 million dollars) to* wards this program of development while private enterprise, both British and foreign, also plays an important part.

B-29 Dropi 2I-T« Trial Bomb In Ptnitmtitn Test
WASHINGTON.—The world's biggest bomb, a 21-ton missile, has been dropped in a penetration test at Muroc army base in California.
The bomb, made by the army ordnance department, was not charged with explosive. The test was to find how fast the bomb would fall and how deep into the earth it would penetrate.
A specially equipped B-29 Superfortress took t^e bomh up and dropped it.
One thing the air force wanted to find out was the effect on a B-29 when such a big weight was suddenly released.
The army and air force are expected to keep secret virtually all details of the test.
The heaviest bomb dropped prior to the test was one of 12¼ tons used in experiments in Germany by tV United P-t.it?s a:r force and

Use Plastic and Nerve Sursyiy For Facial Paralysis
Two possible procedures, one involving nerve surgery, and the other a plastic operation that are now being used to correct facial paralysis, arc described in an article by Paul W. Greeley, M.D, Chicago, in the current issue of the Archives of Surgery, published by the American Medical Association.
Facial paralysis is due to an injury or tumor of the seventh, or facial nerve. The best method of repair? according to the Greeley ar-
i tkle. is to sew together the ends of the cut or torn nerve trunk in or* d*r to enable the face to gain motion again. Where the injury has caused too large a gap for this procedure, it ia possible to graft part of one nerve to another t* rill the gap. Results have been on-desirable. However, because the associated movements involved in trying to move the facial muscles are awkward, and frequently mora conspicuous than the original facial paralysis.
When nerve surgery cannot be undertaken, the simplest and most satisfactory plastic surgical correction was described as sisaply supporting the face by means of tissue graVting. Strips of fibrous tissue, taken from around the muscles of the thigh, are transplanted under the skin, extending from the muscle of the tetftpk, down the side of the face to the muscle underneath the Up. This will not make the face active again, but it aill improve the appearance and comfort of the patient. < #
Willingness on the part of tha patient to diligently practice movements of facial expression before a mirror until he has taught himself how to use the muscles m their new location, was described as essential to tha success of those operations.

Detroit nuUtsfeed, however, the price for Class 1 (fluid milk) ha- remained constant at $5.64 per hundred pound* during recent months but will decline 38 cents on January 1st, bringing the farmers $5.1$ a hundred, F.O.B. Detroit
"Production in the Detroit are* has run somewhat ahead of last year due largely to improved herds and more plentiful supplies of grains am1
roughage feeds." said Mr. Simmons "but production costs ssid** from feeds, have increased because of th
The constantly mounting scale of wage* and costs of all farm machinery fertilisers, etc. It is probable that production will not develop further gains if farmers are forced to pro-
alone <toce milk at no profit and another increase in factory wages most eer tainly will again send farm costs upward.
"Consumers fail to recognise thr fact that a large percentage of the cost of foodstuffs, including milg, goes for wages to labor all tht way from the farm to their dinner fables/' emphasized Mr. Simjaons. "Cutting the dairy farmers income is the equivalent of reducing his wages. His alternative is selling his dairy cews to meat processors and seeking industrial employment, which in (urn may cause milk shortages in the future.
"Our present situation is not a healthy one for if farmers are curtailed in their buying of machinery and other products they need, the entire economy will suffer. The ultimate may be a depression. We are hopeful that supply and demand of milk dairy products will be brought into balance within the near future."

Yguth's Self-Governing Unit Slashes Delinquency In City
Children in Pittsburgh's "city within a city" are saving th* big folks about $25,000 a year.
They do it by reducing false Are alarms and by curbing Juvenile delinquency in other ways.
"Hill City," as the project is known, is nestled deep in Pittsburgh's predominantly Negro hill district—referred to in socialogical reports as a "blighted area." *
Governed by the youth of the district under the supervision of Howard C. McKinney, founder of the agency, the "city" has its own * mayor, council, judges, district attorney, police and a counterpart of every department and bureau in Pittsburgh's municipal government
City officials say the self-government process has worked well. For instance, in addition to the $25,000 saved by the reduction in Salse alarms, shoplifting in Pittsburgh stores has been reduced about 63 per cent gang activities have been cut 96 per cent and vandalism more than 60 per cent.
Main purpose of Hill City is "to make the children feel they are not outcasts of society and that America offers them a future even though they are Negroes."
Any neighborhood child can join Hill City for 15 cents a year. No other charges are made. When entertainment is given, admission is never with money, but by some article 0! food, however small and cheap.
Here's how to hold down the expense of truck dutch trouble.

BOYS ADMIT CHARGE OF BREAK IN & ENTERING
Arrest of Ronald Field, 17, Corunna. and four other boys under 17 years of age Friday signaled the break-up of a seven member gang of juveniles accused of participating in a series of breaking and entering cases in Corunna through the past four months.
- The boys have admitted that on numerous occasions since early in the fall they have broken into the Ted Evans store on McNeil S t , and carried away such loot as wine, beer candy and small items of food. They confessed also to having invaded the Ann Arbor depot several times. The Field boy, only member of the group over 17, was arraigned on breaking and entering charges before Justice Hill of Durand, who entered a plea of "not gnflty** for hhn, called for a trial this week, and released the boys to the custody of his mother. Four others of the boys were given a hearing in juvenile court, and two others, implicated by them, were arrested later. The next few days should see all th cases disposed*of.

Early Life of O, F. Beemer Recalled by Writer
HIT''',!
By Dndaia McNaasca
There wss sadaos la our New Tear* Early on that day w« were informed of the unexpected death of Orlo F. Beemer, of Grand Rapids, a Corunua boy, we helped in some degree in getting started in the newspaper profession.
Since Orlo had ben publishing weekly newspapers in the Grand Rap* ids area w0 had not seen him ttcq* ucntly. Bat occasionally our trails crossed or he would drop into the of. f ice and then we would talk over old times.
Orlo was a serious yotmgsUr In the Corunna schools when he for came to our attention. A few grades ahead of him, we started writing sports for The Corunna Journal, then one of the two home town weeklies, We continued that until the fateful day when Michael J. Phillips, the brilliant city editor of Th« Owossc Fress~Americaa entered the Nicholf & Robinson barbershop and asked if we would like to take hit place on the Press-American during the sum, mer.
So we started working on the Press*American' and continued until we graduated from high school. Orlo came to as many times about doing newspaper work. Finally* he, toe, started working on the Corunna Journal Naturally, we watched his career with interest and gave him what little help we ware able to give during those inexperienced days.
Orlo 1 bought he wanted, to be an advertising man, and so after his graduation he came over to Muskegon and joins dthe advertising staff of The Chronicle. After about a year in Muskegon, he returned to Owosso where he really started his editorial newspaper career under Chandler Z. Tompkins, outstanding newspaperman, and city editor of The Owosso Argus, nad The Owosso Argus Press.
He stayed there for two years and then moved on to the Bay City Tribune. His stay in Owosso, however was long enough for him to court and marry Cleo Carmondy, then the society editor of the newspaper, and a most charming young woman.
Next Orlo went to Grand Rapids where he joined the editorial staff of the Herald. His rise was rapid there. He was%assigned to the city ha!' and county building, Never what was known in the profession as e "brilliant writer," Orlo had othw assets that made him standout He was a hard worker, most earnest *nd made friends. He became city editor of the Herald and later its legislative correspondent in Lansing.
He was a newspaperman in Lan-» sing when Gov. Fred W. Green appointed him his press secretary 1909. Two years later he over to the office of Howard C. Lawrence, where he became deputy state treasurer.
When the Democrats took over Lansing, Theodore I. Fry, of Fremont, who was ele<*«d state treasurer, came to see us. He wanted our advice on his retaining Orlo as,bis deputy. We strongly urged him to do so.
"Regardless of politics he will be most loyal to you" we told him. Phi\ Fry appointed Orl0 and he served under him for three ar.d one-half years until the political pressure became too strong within-Ms own party. Orlo was just as faithful to Phil Pry a» he was to Howard Lawrence, the Re-
»publican, and Mr. Fry has mentioned it many times to us- He made him an outstanding deputy.
Those years in. Lansing brought tragedy t 0 Orlo. Cleo, his wife, wa? killed in an automoWe crash during one of the trips bet^Jfen Lansing and Grand Rapids. In 1937 he was mar-mied a second time to Miss Grace Jensen, _of Grand Rapids,
in moved
treif a h e * city editor." Our nephew, Charles T. Haun ia night city editor of the pfttroit Free Press.
We know they have the same deep feeling of personal loss in the death of Orlo.

DAKN IT BILL — You are right Washing a cow's udder with a warm cloth releases a Hormone which stimulates the milk flow. Sort of back to nature, like the warm mouth of the calf. But here's the point— wait one minute. Not 50 or ,70 but60 seconds. Timeing is important Then train to .milk in 2% minutes. Rand stripping is not recommended. Use the machine, holding the cups low. A test strip cup ahead of the machine not only holds bacteria count down, but sort of elevates you to a first class farmer.

DATE SET FOR HEARING ON CONSUMERS POWER CO. TO RAISE RATES
February 15 has been set by the Michigan Public Service Commission for the start of a three day hearing on Consumers Power Company's petition for authority to make electric rate revisions to provide addU tional revenue of about $6,600,000 a year.
The proposed changes would increase the company's electric revenues about 11 per cent However taxes would cut the extra revenue of 16,600,000 to about $4,100,000.
In its petition Consumers points oujk that the trend in its rates has been steadily downward for 27 years. NOT* mn upward reviaion of rates necessary, the company says, because of sharp increases in the cost of doing business. Delivered cost of coal burned in generating plants has jumped 99 per cent since 1939, and the company's coal bill for the 12 months ended last November SO, was $16,665,820. Wages are up 67 per cent according to the petition. Sharp rises in the cost of almost every item of material or equipment used in supplying electric service also are cited.
Earnings are now four per cent on the value of the electric property, Consumers says, and r> more adequate rate is required to attract the investors needed to help finance the company's huge expansion program. made necessary by growth of de.
nd for electricity. Industrial, commercial and dom
estic customers all would pay slight ly higher rates, but the increases for industrial and large commercial customers would be smaller in proportion than that for household customers. This is because a "coal clause" in industrial and commercial rates has already caused bills of customer? in these classes to reflect rises in the cost of coal burned in electric gen. erating plants. The household rate contins no "coal clause," so bills of these customers have remained at the old level.
For the average householder, the proposed revision would mean an increase of about two and a half cents a day, or 75 cents a month. Hia bill for 170 kilowatt-hours would be $5.25 a month instead of $4.50. For a small household customer, usirt? 80-killowatt-hours a month, the in crease would be a cent a day, and hi? monthly bill would be $3.00 instead of $2.70.
HEALTH * WELFARE FUND RALLY EVENT OF JAJ*. 13
A state-wide mobilization rally, to be attended by directors and county committee members of th* United Health and Welfare Fuad of aCichi-gan, will be held in Lansing, Thursday, January 13, preparatory to the first annual state-wide campaign> of the United Fund, it has been an-, nounced by J. ML Shackelton of Saginaw, President of the. Fund.
"The luncheon meeting will cal1
together people from every section of the state and every walk oi life, "Mr. Shackelton said. "Plans for the initial campaing will be outlined to the guests. In addition to our directors and members of the county campaign organizations, directors and friends of the 18 agencies of the state Fund als0 will attend.
"Goal for the campaign will not be known until the counties complete making up their budgets," Shackle-ton explained. "The agencies which have joined the state Fund for cam, paign purposes have asked the people of Michigan for approximately $1,-000,000. Each county has b5en entirely free to include in its own campaign goal, additional funds for any organization which ordinarily appeals to its people for support Soma counties plan to include local services wihch have in the past held independent campaigns.
"A nuzsber of counties have indicated that they do not intend to accept as final and binding upon them the policy decisions handed down from national headquarters of tome organisations which deny conu munities the right to decide how and> when they shall raise money for the organisation, "Mr. Shackelton pointed out T
The combined goals of the 88 counties, therefore, may range any* where from the million dollar minimum requested by the organisations cooperating in the state Fund, to ar estimated seven million required by all of the national and state organizations conducting campaigns in Michigan.
"The United Health and Welfare Fund of Michigan has invited all of these known and worthy organizations to participate," Mr. Shackleton said. "The door still is open for them to cooperate either on a statewide or community basis."
The state Fund was organised about a year and a half ago to enter-into a partnership with state and national health and welfare agencies to solve the problems brought about by too many campaigns, inequity of quo. tas, and inequity of amounts raised in relation t0 need. The plan is to hold one campaign, instead of many to finance these needed services.
A year and a half of negotiations with agencies found 18 of the 24 approached willing to cooperate in the joint campaign. County committeer already have been organized or ar? in the process of organization, in 61 counties of the state.
