CHANGE YOUR MIND
All Wrong to Keep "War Heroes Out
of Employment Theory of New
Comedy Story.
It may have been fine for the women of the country to take the positions held by the men while they
served in the Great War and helped
make the world safe lo live in, but it
is all wrong for them to keep these
positions when their heroes co:ne
back home.
So firmly did they believe in thore
principles that they made a photoplsy
based on that theme, which has b .en
released by Famous Playeis-Lasky
Corporation as one of their sp cal
Paramount productions, under tbe
title, "Oh, You Women," which w 11
be shown at The Liberty Saturday, evening. Ernest Truex, the celebrate!
comedian, and Louise Huff are the
principals of the cast.
The subject is one of the most absorbing that has come as the result
cf the recent war, and is particularly
timely, because of the recent return
of the warriors who served so well io
France. With no idea in mind that it
would be post war propaganda-, Mr.
Emerson and Miss Loos, made this
spectacular production and their results have been commented on In a
most flattering manner from all quarters. It also is funny from start to
finish and a sure cure for the blues.

THE MORE BREAD YOU EAT
The More You Reduce tlie Cost ol living
Nowadays it behooves the thrifty housewife to. provide
foods that give most nourishment at least cost. The
Vnore bread you eat, the more money you save, and the
more food value you get, for bread has more food value
and less waste than any other food.
And you can't get better bread than Schnebelt's.
The Federated Church
Rev. W. H. Hoffman. Past ;r.
P:Ofessor Ross, superintendent of
the Ypsilanti high school, will preach
next Sabbath morning. Dr. Bruske,
writing of him, says: "I believe your
people will gladly listen to his message." There will be no evening service. The Rev. W; B. Shirey of Ann
Arbor will occupy tbe pulpit September 28. He is a Sabbath school expert and will speak upon an up to
date subject.
Did you ever stop to think what
sort of an inijpresion you leave upon
others? Do they speak of you as a
grouch, or are they drawn instinctively to the sunshine of your cheering
presence? The christian walking in
company with Jesus will be no dark
lantern, no gloomy pessimist, but a
smiling optimist, who sees the shadows gloriously illuminated and things
growing brigh'er as he journeys
along,
I am very glad to say that four people have said to me the parsonage
ought to be shingled this fall. No! I
didn't ask tbem; they simply expres:-
ad their own candid opinion, and I am
now* waiting to hear what you will
say.
What a wealth of meaning was in
that longing desire of Jean Valjean,
the hero of Victor Hugo's great story.
He wanted to live "where people say
good morning to one another," where
they neighbor in a friendly way,
where the feverish life quiets its
throbbing pulse, and people take time
to get acquainted.
On Friday afternoon, September 12,
the pastor married Howard Gustin
and Miss Hazel Nicholas, two young
people from Bowling Green, 0.

TUBERCULOSIS FOUND
IN POULTRY FLOCKS
Spread  of Disease Among  Michigan
Chickens Becomes Beal Menace.
"Tuberculosis has increased so rapidly among the farm, poultry flocks of
Michigan that the disease has become
a serious trouble lo the farmers ot
the state", says M. E. Dickson, of tha
poultry department at tha Agriqu'tur-
al college. Reports from various
parts of the state Indicate that the
disease is V6ry general and that it is
apparently on the inc-ea.-e.
It is difficult to diagnose a case of
tuberculosa in poultry until the disease is in an advanced stage so that
the symptoms are " prominent. A
iheumati'c condition or "dumpish'
actions on the part of the bird are
among the signs of the disease. The
liver, spleen, intestines, and rare'y
She lungs and kidneys are covered
with masses of tubercular leslors,
varying in size from a Mere speck to
tbe size of large peas..
"Wh le cooking kil's the d'se se
germs in an. infected fowl, the housewife is, nevertheless, exposed to con-
tpminat'on when she draws and
dresses the b*rd", declares Mr. Dickson. "The personal danger is so
great that one should not attempt to
keep any fowls that have even been
exposed to contamination*. All birds
that have been killed or have died
from tuberculosis, together with
sweepings frcm the infected poultry
house, should all be completely destroyed by burning^ as a step in con-
t-olling the "spread of the disease."
PATTON-MORRIS WEDDING.
At 4:00 o'clock on Wednesday afternoon, September 10, at the home of
the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. H.
E. Morris, the marriage of Miss Hazel
Anyieta Morris to Mr. Lewis C. Pat-
ton of Tyler, Texas, was solemnized.
The ceremony was performed by Rev.
Crane of Detroit.
The friends present from out oE
town were: Henry D. Patton, Tyler.
Texa**-; G. B. McDonald, Guantananio.
Cubp; Claude Harper, Nashville,
renn.; Mr. and Mrs. Charles C^x, Ann
Arbor.
The newly wedded couple wenl_ to
Acr'an after the ceremony, where they
were entertained by friends. From
Adrian they went to Chicago, thence
to their new home in Tyler, Texas.
Congratulations and best wishes.
CROSS OE BROOM CORN AND
SORGHUM SOLD TO FARMERS
That many Michigan farmers who
ha-d sharpened up their appetites, for
buckwheat cakes and sorghum molasses this winter are doomed to disappointment because of the fact that
for them there is to be no sorghum-* is
the opinion of Prof. J. F. Cox of the
M'chigan Agricultural college.
Much of the sorghum seed planted
iu the state this year was in reality
a cross with broom corn, and the re
sult was sorghum that had no juice.
Professor Cox advises farmers to be
careful in selecting their "molasses"
seed, and be sure that they are not
starting a crop of half-way broom
corn.
For Sale—Combination heater; will
burn hard or soft coal, coke or wood.
In fine shape and would cost in the
neighborhood of $50 new; yours If you
want it for about one-quarter of that.
Inquire at Observer office.
