XIir.ESHERMEN'S PICNIC
WAS A GREAT SUCCESS
Pot-luck  Dinner,   Splendid  Program
and Several Able    Talks.
CLEVER  SWINDLE EXPOSED
Harold  King Victimized  in   Second-
Hand  Car Transaction.
The Wood Brothers thresher family picnic, held on Saturday, September 17, under the ausipces of the
WicCaian Auto Company of this Village, for the owners and users
of Wood Brothers' threshers and
their families, was a complete success, under the able management of
M. W. Martin, tractor-implement
salesman for the Wiedman AutQ
Company.
A bountiful basket dinner was served at the noon hour by the wives of
the threshermen, to. whom • a great
part of the credit for the success of
the picnic is due.
The program started at 1.30 with
a song by the Saline Male Quartet,
w,hich was fine and very much appreciated by all.
F. O. Wiedman made the address
of welcome, showing plainly that his
interest in this commuity is more far-
reaching than just serving you in a
business way.
Charles Sullivan, an owner and
user of a Wood Brothers' thresher,
made a fine response, and surely gave
voice to the sentiments of those in
attendance.
R. R. Randolph, manager of Wood
Brothers' Thresher Company, was
present and gave a much-appreciated
talk on the company and their product.
At this time several selections were
rendered by the male quartet, after
which John A. Fitch, salesman for
Wood Brothers' Thresher Company,
was introduced and delivered the address of the afternoon, taking for his
subject "The Highest Type of Service," which was interesting from
start to finish and showed that Mr.
Fitch is not only a salesman but
a fine speaker as well.
The owners and users of Wood
Brothers' threshers sold in this community this year were given an opportunity to give voice to the -woik
done by the Wood Brothers' threshers this year, together with the service rendered by the Wiedman Auto
Company, local dealers, and the
Wood Brothers' Thresher Company,
showing their  complete  satisfaction.
It was put to a vote and decided
that the Wood Brothers' family picnic rshall be an annual affair.
The feature of the afternoon was
a recitation given by the little
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Leroy Mc-
Leroy  of Britton.
At the close of the program a ball
game was played, which consisted of
a pitching duel between M. W. Martin and R. B. Randolph, and between
the efforts of Archie Lawrence, the
umpire and John A. Fitch, the score
was kept fairly even. However, R. B.
Randolph's team won the game, 10
to 5.
The Wiedman Auto Company wish
to express their thanks to the quart-
tet from the Federated church of Saline, also to all others who so kindly
rendered their services in making this
picnic a complete success.—Adv.
Harold King of Ann Arbor, form-
; erly  of  Saline, had  an unusual and
j rather serious outcome with, his car
.; last week.     State  police  seized  his
'[ machine, which had proved to be a
: stolen one.   The car seemed to have a
clear title when Mr. King purchased
it from an Ann Arbor dealer, but it
is now learned that it had changed
hands four times before state police
captured  the   culprits   who  stole   it
from the original owner.    The num-
bersfhad been changed and title obtained for it from the state through
the lost title clause of the state law.
The thieves were located in Detroit,
operating a tire and battery shop and
practically all the tires and accessories in their place were stolen property.
There arc several ways auto thieves
can get around the title law, the most
common one being to watch junk
yards and wrecking plants for damaged and demolished machines. Whan
one is wrecked beyond repair the title
is destroyed or sent to Lansing, but
usuklly not sent.in. Then the crooks
.get busy. Under some pretense they
want to buy a part of the wrecked
car, and while getting the part secure
all (>•"-> numbers of the car. They then
leave and proceed to steal a car uf
the same model, change the numbers
of the stolen car to that of the wrecked one, and then write to the title
department and swear that they have
lost their title, requesting a hew onr\
which is forthcoming.

Two Detroiters have been arrested
and brought back to Eaton county lo
answer to the charge of defrauding
B,ertha Klann, of Chester township,
out of a farm through a bond trade.
With no attempt to discuss this case
until it has been threshed out in
court, we believe people should' be
careful in all dealings -which may effect their property rights. Trading
land of known value for bonds of unknown value is dangerous at best and
safe only after your banker has passed upon their market value. Don't
trust strangers.—Ionia News.

When Colleen Moors returned from.!
location, where ocean scenes wicc
filmed for her new First National picture, "Oh Kay!" coming to the Liberty theatre Saturday and Sunday
she was pronounced by her fellow
players to be 'a first class able seaman.
A decidcly nautical atmosphere wa«'
supplied by the scenarist for several
episodes of this humorous story, in
whicli Colleen made numerous scene*
aboard an old wind-jammer, rowed a
skiff, and even acted as skipper anc
crew of a fast littl"; sloop. The sloo-?
a star-boat, racing type, captured the
enthusiastic interest of Colleen, who
went sailing in the sporty little craft
whenever she was most needed befor-:,
the cameras. She confessed that she
found handling main-sheet, jib and
tiller all at one time was a job, better
suited to a person with four arms,
but she was fascinated by the sport
She gives promise of becoming an expert sailor thanks to the tutelage oi"
her producer, John McCormick, a
former naval offiecer.
As soon as camera work was completed on location near Santa Barbara, Miss-Moore and the cast and
production staff filming "Oh Kayi"
went aboard a sailing vessel and
cruised in the waters around Catalina
Island for other scenes, which include
the episode in which Colleen displays
her prowess in a little sailboat. The
supporting cast is composed of Lawrence Gray, Alan Hale, Ford Sterling
Claude Gillingwater, Julianne Johnston, Edgar Norton and others.
