QUARTERLY MEETING
Of the Washtenaw late-denominational
Sunday School Association.
As previously announced, the Saline
division ol the Washtenaw Inierduoidi-
nation Sunday School association will
hold its next quarterly meeting in the
Presbyterian cliurch Sunday,a:teniooj
und eveuing.
The officers of the local board have
teemed for these meeMnps some excellent speakers and a good and profitable
t me is sure to be in store for nil who
wiil go. Dr. Burgess of Detroit, o.'e
of the mo. t succe sful Sunday school
workers in the state, will' be on the
program. Dr. G. 0. Hoyt, one of the
products of .Saline of whom ne may ali
feel proud, is today one of the able
speakers of the state who stands
among the first; he will tell us something of "The Test of a Sunday
School." Dr. Burgess will speak of
"A Growing Sunday School."
Dr. Glass, state secretary of the H.
E, Sunday school work, who will
speak in the Methodist church in the
morning, will also find a place on the
program.
The Presbyterian choir will have
charge of the music for the evening
session.
Arrange your visits and all else that
you may attend both of these services
—2:30 in the afternoon and 7:00 in the
evening. You will be amply paid.
Good topics, good speakers, good
music and a good time, for all.
Presbyterian Church News
Pastor—Kev. W. H. Hoffman.
Subject Sabbath morning, "The
Reformation and Its Influence Upon
Modern Civilization."
Sabbath school convention afternoon
and evening. It will be of special interest to the public and will prove an
inspiration to every Sabbath school
worker and scholar.
Y. P. S. C. E. at 6 o'clock: subject,
"The Church and Its Work." The
attendance is increasing and every
meeting shows renewed interest.
The Sabbath school did a very
worthy act by electing its popular superintendent, Harold Miller, delegate
to the state Sabbath school convention
at Battle Creek.
As a result of the union meeting
Sabbath evening_ in the Methodist
church, 'a committee of laymen was
chosen to make feasible the laymen's
movement in Saline. Every one will
be interested in their report and hope
some wise plan may be devised for the
organization of the laymen in our several churches.
One often hears that it takes a dollar
to get a dollar on the foreign mission
field.
Such is not the case. During the
past 10 years the cost of home expenses
has not reached eight per cent, or to
be exact .0798, so that 92 cents out of
every dollar goes directly to the foreign
field. The board of directors is composed of keen, practical, christian
business men, who give much of their
time and effort and talent to the church
without any financial remuneration.
These hard-headed business men,
rather than criticise over-expenditure
of our board of foreign missions, question sharply the wisdom of this very
rigid economy. It would be well as an
offset to this captious criticism to inquire how much it costs to run the
various business enterprises in Saline.
In this age of advertising and speculative ventures, the running expenses
reach well up to 25 and 30 per cent of
the investment in many cases and no
fault is found.
Methodist Church Items
Pastor—Rev. G. G. Hicks.
Kev. D. H. Glass, D. D., conference
superintendent of Sunday schools of
the Detroit conference, will preach
Sunday morning at 10 o'clock. Dr.
Glass is considered one of the greatest
experts on work with children and
young people in the state, and has had
phenominal success along these lines
in his own pastorates. He is the originator of the Glass Combination service, which is becoming more and
more popular and which is now being
used by our church and Sunday school.
Let us be Out in force Sunday morning and give him a good working
demonstration of this combined service.
In the afternoon and evening Dr.
Glass will take part in the Sunday
school institute to be held in the Presbyterian church. And owing to this
institute there will be no service in our
church at the evening service hour.
The Epworth League will meet at the
usual hour, 6 p.m., led by Miss Cran-
dall, on the subject, "A Prophet's
Great Promise to Youth." At this
meeting the orchestra is doing fine,
work in leading the singing and adding interest to the meeting. Let us
gather promptly, young people, that
we may close in time to get to the other
church for the institute.
On Friday evening of this week a
"Hallowe'en Social" will be held at
the parsonage, given by the Epworth
League, and all young people of the
church and town are cordially invited
to make this their "date" for that
night. "May the presence of friends,
for the spooks make amends."

STATE REWARD
^HH
Given   Some   Counties   Far   Exceeds
Road Tax. i
i
According  to  figures   compiled   by}
Auditor General Fuller, the state high- j
way tax apportioned among the various :
counties of the state during the past 12!
years has been $3,855,000 and the coun- |
ties have received back in state reward
for roads built the sum of 52,569,288:38.
The marked contras; in the amount received by the various counties is most
striking.   Every county must contribute
its share to this work whether it receives anything in return or not.   It
would seem good policy for every county to do its utmost in the way of good
road building and thus  receive  hack
from the state as much as possible.
To illustrate the wide contrast in the
amount paid the state and that received
back in different counties, Bay county
has during the 12 years paid the state
$57,617.17 and received back $76,485.96,
or well towards S19.000 more than paid
out. Wayne county has paid the state
$897,256.48 and received only$175.258.74,
about one-fifth the sum paid. Of course.
the great city of Detroit explains this.
Genesee county pays $78,833.66 and
receives $102,501.20, an excess of over
$23,000, while Ingham county pays in
$77,127.67 and receives but $20,118.40,
less by over $57,000 of the sum paid.
In like manner Kent county with the
great city of Grand Rapids pays in almost $217,000 more than is received,
while Muskegon received §32,527.24
more than it contributes to the state.
Beware of Cheap Substitutes.
In these days ot keen competition it is
important that the public should see
that they get Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and not take substitutes sold for the
sake of extra profit. Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy has stood the -test and
heen approved for more than forty years.
Obtainable everywhere.
Choral Union Concert.
The next number on the Choral
Union series at Aim Arbor will t.ike
place in Hill auditorium on the evening of November 23, when the Flonza-
ley String Quartet, composed of the
following artists, will appear:
Adolfo Betti, first violin; Alfred Po-
chon, second violin; Ugo Ara, viola;
Iwan D'Archambeau, violoncello.
This organization ranks as one of
the world's most distinguished quartets, and on their previous appearances in Ann Arbor they have made
profound impressions. This will be
their first appearance in Ann Arbor
since the completion of Hill auditorium, and former Festival patrons will
be glad of an opportunity to hear them
again.
They will offer the following program:
Quartet in D major, Cesar Franck;
Poco lento; Allegro; Scherzo; Lar-
ghetto; Finale.
"Three Pieces for Quartet" (Manuscript) Strawinsky.
Quartet in D minor, Op. 76, No. 2,
Hadyn; Allegro; Andante piu Tosto
Allegretto; Menuetto; Finale.
No Scorching Allowed.
The new auto law which goes into
effect next January, is very plain on
the subject of "dimmers." Under the
law, every driver must have his car so
equipped next season, that when passing another ear he can "dim" or lessen
his light, so as not to blind a driver
coming toward him.
Another matter which the law states
positively is that on no highway of the
state may an auto be driven, lawfully,
at greater than 25 miles an hour. Some
people think that as soon as they get a
few miles out in the country they have
a perfect right to go 40 or 50 miles an
hour.
For cities the rate is 10 miles in the.
business sections and only 15 miles in
other parts. The new law, the same as
the old state law, says that no person
under the age of 18 years of age may
drive an auto, and the attention of fond
parents of "kid" drivers is called to
this section.
