Bev. Knowles of Durand preached
in the Congregational church to fair
sized audiences, both morning and
eyening. The attendance would have

here and officiate in the church.
Many people of late have spoken of
the inconvenience arising from there
being no lights about the union depot,
We are of the opinion that for the
railroad officials to cause to be placed
an arc light on the grounds would be
far less expensive than to pay damages for accidents which are almost
sure to occur unless lights are placed.

unexpected cannon explosion at the

down from Farwell Monday. He informs us that the sight of his eyes is

charge for gratuitously dressing his
wounds and for the voluntary contribution made by the citizens and visitors.   a
Tuesday evening a reception was
given Bev. and Mrs. S, 0, Bobinsoh at
the M. E. parsonage, and this was one
of the most enjoyable gathering of the
season. It was a complete surjirise to
the host, but Mr. Bobinson thoroly
enjoys surprise of this nature. The
spacious home was crowded, standing
room beinK ati a premium. The occasion of the reception was the return
of the elder for another year's work in
Olare and he must needs feel from the
manifestations on this and other occasions that his work among us has
been greatly appreciated.
Albert Cornwell of Olare and Floyd
Williams of Farwell go today to Olivet
college where they will do preparatory
work with view to entering the regular course. Bev. B. Graff goes with
them and will spend every fourth
week at the institution, preparing to
take master's degree. A college education is within reach of every young
American who has the pluck, push
and preseverance. The ten cents boy
on whom his father has spent $5000 is
not the kind of college students that
make the'world better. Later.—We
are sorry to learn that Albert is unable to attend this year.
We fully intended mentioning in
last week's issue the party given by
Misses Anna Lansing an.d Lillian
Halstead at the latter's pleasant home
Saturday evening. There were about
twenty present, and from the time
the guests commenced to assemble
till the last one bad bid the hostesses
"good night," every moment was occupied in carrying out the interesting
program so well. arranged by the
ladies. Dainty refreshments were
served, several vocal and instrumental selections rendered, and to
say the least a thoroly enjoyable evening spent by tbose present,
Many of the citizens are seemingly
unaware of the fact that not long ago
ah ordinance relative to wheels being
run on sidewalks was passed by the
board of aldermen and is now in vogue.
The ordinance is a good one, allowing
wheels to be run at a rate of not to
exceed six miles an hour on all walks,
but obliging wheelman to dismount at
least twenty feet before meeting pe-
destrains, There are a few careless
riders and there are also a few cranks
who have a holy borrow for the modern method of rapid transit. It would
have been even better had tbe ordinance been worded, as is that at Mt.
Pleasant and other cities, so that tbe
rider might pass by consent cf the
pedestrain, which could beeaisly gotten by a sign. However the wheelmen
are obliged for the present fair ordinance and we urge tbat it be -voluntarily obeyed.
"The Drummer Laddie" written by
Dr. John W. Dunlop and copyrighted
by him, is the name of a poem which
has yet to be published. This poefh is
written in the Scotch dialect and is
composed of fifty four-line stanzas.
Dr. Dunlop delivered the poem in the
hearing of ye editor one day this
week, and we cannot but think the
doctor is endowed with that true
poetic nature wnich has made famous
Bobby Burns and his equals. The ia-j-^
spiration came to the writer during
the heavy snow-fall in the winter of
1897-8, when tarffic of all kinds was
almost entirely suspended for a week.
Marsky Brothers of Saginaw, having
heard the poem, saw the real value of
it and offered Mr. Dunlop $1000 in cold
cash for the right to use it, which the
doctor declined. AS soon as the proper illustrations can bs procured the
poem will be published in book form
and placed on the market by Mr. Dunlop,
