NELSON CARROW
DIES SUDDENLY
Respected Sheridan Citizen
Passes From This Life
After Short Illness,
The athletic meet for boys and girls

TENDERED SURPRISE.
James Grigg, of Sheridan township,
was .the subject of a complete surprise Monday evening when a number of neighbors and friends gathered
at his home and reminded nim that
It was his 29th birhday.
Lunch consisting of ice cream and
cake "was served to forty-five guests,
the feature Of which was a birthday
cake baked by J. E. Foss & Sons. The
music of the evening was furnished
by the Pettie orchestra from near
Beaverton and a jolly £,ood time was
enjoyed by all.
Upon leaving for their homes, all
extended best wishes to the host for
many more of the happy occasions
and left him many beautiful gifts,
We were sleeping in our cabin on the
shore of Old Black Bay, "»
All keyed up with keen excitement
Anxious for the coming day;
Doc and Bill were bunked together,
Cojx and I across the way,
And the scene was just as peaceful
As a Sunday morn in May.
What was that .that broke my slumber
Brot me bolt upright in bed?
Was it booming of a cannon
Loud enough to wake the dead?
Was it roaring of the billows'
As they beat upon the shore?
Was it a fog horn warning danger?
Did an angry lion roar?
Could it be!—or was I dreaming,
Did that sound come from their
bunk?
Had the lemonade they gave me
Left me paralyzed and drunk?*
Could a human- being utter
Sounds that tore the very air?
Like the blowing of the slrfSn
When a building burns in Clare
Gradually my wits came to me,
As the echoes filled the shack,
And I shouted mid the tumult
"I say 'Doc'! lay off your back."
Oh Yes! Yes! replied the Doctor,
And the rafters ceased to ring,
With the vibrant tones he gurgled
Like a Hippo, trying to sing
Then again I sought my pillow
Craving sleep from head to toes;
But alas! there was no sleeping
For again that roar arose.
Long I lay there, hoping, thinking,
That perhaps he'd wake himself
With the rattling of the bottles,
As they shivered on the shelf.
Finally in desperation
I stole madly from my bed,
Seided the Doctor with a vengeance
That would resurrect the dead.
Have a heart Doc! Cut out snoring!
All the world should be asleep,
Can't you hear yourself a roaring
Like a sea cow on the deep?
Meekly, like a poor whipped puppy
Doctor rolled a little bit;;
"Don't blame me for all the snoring,
Bill's a'doin' part of it."
G. B. Wells

FORD PUTS STRAW
TO NEW USE
Is Valuable as an Ingredient in
the Manufacture of Fordite
for Steering Wheels.
Invisible, yet daily gripped in the
hands of millions of persons, straw
from the farm of Henry Ford is literally scattered to the four corners of
the earth.
Strange as this statement may
seem, it is true.
Out on the Ford farm at Dearborn,
Mich., operated entirely by Fordson
tractor power, there was no use for
the great loads of straw annually harvested there with the grain until the
Ford Motor Company, given to doing
unusual things, found a use for it.
The straw is used as an ingredient
In the composition of Fordite, a material of flint-like hardness and a development of the Ford Motor Company, from which steering sfheels are
made and the Fordite plant at Highland Park supplies- these steering
wheels for all Ford cars and trucks,
wherever assembled throughout the
world, in the United States, Canada,
and abroad, and also for use on Fordson tractors,
The Fordite plant, begun about four
years ago something as an experiment
'"x at present producing an average
is
of 8,500 of these steering wheels daily
under the manufacturing schedule of
three eight-hour working shifts six
days a week. Subjected to the most,
minute inspection and given the most
exacting tests, they are the strongest
and most durable steering wheels produced, of ever-wearing quality, a
bright lustrous black and superior In
many ways to wooden steering wheels.
The straw from the Ford farm,
which is sufficient In quantity for
only about nine months' manufacture
after which straw must be purchased
outside, is utilized, following a shredding process, as a binder in making
that part of Fordite which forms the
core of the steering wheel, insuring a
rim of exceptional strength. , The
daily consumption at present is about
a ton and a half.

James Grigg, of Sheridan township, was .the subject of a complete surprise Monday evening when a number of neighbors and friends gathered at his home and reminded nim that It was his 29th birhday. Lunch consisting of ice cream and cake "was served to forty-five guests, the feature Of which was a birthday cake baked by J. E. Foss & Sons. The music of the evening was furnished by the Pettie orchestra from near Beaverton and a jolly £,ood time was enjoyed by all. Upon leaving for their homes, all extended best wishes to the host for many more of the happy occasions and left him many beautiful gifts, We were sleeping in our cabin on the shore of Old Black Bay, "» All keyed up with keen excitement Anxious for the coming day; Doc and Bill were bunked together, Cojx and I across the way, And the scene was just as peaceful As a Sunday morn in May. What was that .that broke my slumber Brot me bolt upright in bed? Was it booming of a cannon Loud enough to wake the dead? Was it roaring of the billows' As they beat upon the shore? Was it a fog horn warning danger? Did an angry lion roar? Could it be!—or was I dreaming, Did that sound come from their bunk? Had the lemonade they gave me Left me paralyzed and drunk?* Could a human- being utter Sounds that tore the very air? Like the blowing of the slrfSn When a building burns in Clare Gradually my wits came to me, As the echoes filled the shack, And I shouted mid the tumult "I say 'Doc'! lay off your back." Oh Yes! Yes! replied the Doctor, And the rafters ceased to ring, With the vibrant tones he gurgled Like a Hippo, trying to sing Then again I sought my pillow Craving sleep from head to toes; But alas! there was no sleeping For again that roar arose. Long I lay there, hoping, thinking, That perhaps he'd wake himself With the rattling of the bottles, As they shivered on the shelf. Finally in desperation I stole madly from my bed, Seided the Doctor with a vengeance That would resurrect the dead. Have a heart Doc! Cut out snoring! All the world should be asleep, Can't you hear yourself a roaring Like a sea cow on the deep? Meekly, like a poor whipped puppy Doctor rolled a little bit;; "Don't blame me for all the snoring, Bill's a'doin' part of it." G. B. Wells In the passing of Nelson.. Carrow on Tuesday Sheridan township lost one of its best citizens, an early pioneer, a good neighbor and friend.

The sixth annual Summer Farmers Day at the Micbigan Agricultural College will be beld on Friday, July 27, tbis year, according to announcement made there this week by E. B. Hill, assistant dean of agriculture at the college and chairman of the farmers day committee. More than 5,000 farmers and their families gathered on the college campus for the big conclave in 1922, and plans are being made to care for an even larger crowd this summer, i In 1918, a special conference of state farmers was called at M. A- 0, during i the summer to discuss problems aris- l ing in connection with war-time \ wheat crops. The following year, a j similar gathering was called to plan ; state programs for soil experimental ' *.nd teat work.

Invisible, yet daily gripped in the hands of millions of persons, straw from the farm of Henry Ford is literally scattered to the four corners of the earth. Strange as this statement may seem, it is true. Out on the Ford farm at Dearborn, Mich., operated entirely by Fordson tractor power, there was no use for the great loads of straw annually harvested there with the grain until the Ford Motor Company, given to doing unusual things, found a use for it. The straw is used as an ingredient In the composition of Fordite, a material of flint-like hardness and a development of the Ford Motor Company, from which steering sfheels are made and the Fordite plant at Highland Park supplies- these steering wheels for all Ford cars and trucks, wherever assembled throughout the world, in the United States, Canada, and abroad, and also for use on Fordson tractors, The Fordite plant, begun about four years ago something as an experiment '"x at present producing an average is of 8,500 of these steering wheels daily under the manufacturing schedule of three eight-hour working shifts six days a week. Subjected to the most, minute inspection and given the most exacting tests, they are the strongest and most durable steering wheels produced, of ever-wearing quality, a bright lustrous black and superior In many ways to wooden steering wheels. The straw from the Ford farm, which is sufficient In quantity for only about nine months' manufacture after which straw must be purchased outside, is utilized, following a shredding process, as a binder in making that part of Fordite which forms the core of the steering wheel, insuring a rim of exceptional strength. , The daily consumption at present is about a ton and a half.
