Last Thur sday we d rove down to Detroi t in the turenoon to look over a proposed two million dollar road project , in ex tend ing Livernois Ave. through a resi-dence distr ict in P leasant Ridge , a Detroit suburb, a pro jec t to which the c i ty strenuously ob-jected. and accord ing to prawn t law the desired property cannot be condemned wi thoa t the rnn—nt of the municipali ty.

The big problems still con-f ron t i ng us a r e : school financing, del inquent taxes, sales tax exemp-tions, financing of old age pensions, general appropr ia t ions bills, and ad jou rnmen t or recess. Thur sday we passed a school bill which was agreeable to the governor , t he s ta te a s suming 53% of the total school cost of 68 millions, or J36,040-000. which less the pr imary of $14,-000.000. leaves a net of J22.040.000 fo r the first year , and 2 percent g rea te r than tha t the second year , or $23,400,000. Fr iday the House refused to concur in this, so this will now go to committee.

Of course every one knows that business in this par t of the country where automobiles are manufac t -ured is the best of any place in America today. Pres ident Roose-velt h a s commented about the "come-back" of Detroi t and this par t of Michigan.

The re is not much question but what the exceptional recovery of the automobile business is due al-most entirely to thc fact tha t the business has not been hampered and h a m s t r u n g by a lot of crazy ideas and regulations. If Ford had consented to let outs iders run his business i s have some of the other industries, do you suppopse f o r one minute we would be enjoying tbe prosperi ty in this pa r t of the s ta te tha t we a re today. It is pret ty safe s ta tement to make that we would be right where the other industr ia l centers a re if it had not been fo r the determined position taken by Mr. Ford in his dealings with official meddlers.—Plymouth Mail.

SEPTIC TANKS

That thc use. construct ion, and funct ion of scptic t a n k s is mis-understood by many people is evidenced by the numerous com-plaints received because of ineff i-cient func t ioning of the tanks .

Septic t anks unless properly con-s t ructed and provided with suf f i -cient d ra inage will need a t ten t ion at f requen t intervals. The most common cause of trouble is lack of suff ic ient dra inage. For this rea-son t anks const ructed on small lots do not work well very long. P rope r d ra inage can be provided only by laying an adequa te amoun t of open jointed sub-surface tile in porous soil. Sand and gravel soils a re best adapted fo r this purpose. Most of the trouble on platted pro-per ty is because there is not suff i -cient space on the ord inary lot for the sub-surface tile type of drain-age and the re fore a so-called dry well or seepage well is constructed. This dry well Is soon covered on the inside with an impervious coat-ing which prevents the liquid f r o m dra in ing away into the soil, which resul ts in clogging of the t ank . The only remedy fo r this is i new dry well.

The objection to this type of dra inage is that wha tever liquid does seep away into the soil car-ries with it t he dangerous ge rms present in the fluid. A general im-pression prevails tha t the eff luent f rom the second or th i rd compar t -ment of the t ank has been rend-ered pure and sa?e in its passage th rough the t ank . This of course is f a r f rom the t r u t h since is con-ta ins not only m a n y small par t i -cles of solid mater ia l s , but mill-ions of dangerous bacter ia a s well.

Another reason w h y the sub-sur-face type of d ra inage is advocated is t h a t h a r m f u l g e r m s in the ef-f luent a re destroyed in the upper eighteen inches of the soil, where-as when the e f f luen t seeps away in the deeper layers of the soil f r o m a drv well, the ge rms it contains may find their way into the wa t e r supply of a well located a consid-erable dis tance away.

Mapes District (By Mrs. R o z i e H u n t e r )

Orchard owners sometimes in-spect vigorous f ru i t t rees on one day and, then, the next day find t ha t the foliage and opening f ru i t buds on the t rees have bcen mys-teriously damaged by some crea-tu re which has disappeared.

The answer to thc riddle, accord-ing to the entomology depa r tmen t a t Michigan S ta te College, is the cl imbing cutworm, which cl imbs the t rees at night, feeds, and des-cends to seek a hiding place before dawn. This habit of climbing t rees can be used to control the crea ture .

Bands of some substance coated with a st icky mater ia l will t r ap the insects as they climb and usually will prevent any d a m a g e to the trees. Poison bait can be used to kill the cutworms, which will reduce the numbers having a chance of growing to ma tu r i t y and causing trouble the following year.

The poison bait can be prepared by thoroughly mixing one bushel of bran, one-half gallon cheap mo-lasses. one pound of white arsenic, and a little water . Two or three ounces of banana oil should be ad-ded to the completed mixture. Do not use paris green or a r sena te of lead in mixing the bait.

The bait should be scat tered thinly on the ground in areas where the cu tworms a re numerous . Animals and birds can not be in-jured by the bait unless it Is thrown out In lumps.

Bands used to t r a p the worms should be inspected regular ly to be cer ta in t ha t they have not be-come coated wi th windblown dirt, or have become par t ia l ly detached so the worms can pass without be-ing caught .

I "I have been troubled wi th rheumat i sm for several years. T h e I muscles of my a rms were sore and s t i f f , the cords in my legs I would d r a w up and muscles knot. My whole body was filled •

I with aches and pains, also troubled wi th gas and const ipat ion. -1 took six bottles of RE-JU-VA and improved r ight along, a m 1 now feeling fine. It w a s a year ago I quit t ak ing the medi- I

Icine and I am not t roubled with rheumat i sm or gas and my bowels a re f ine. I will recommend it to anyone in need of the medicine because it helped me so much."

Surely such fac tc should give o the r suf fe re rs assurance and I hope of renewed heal th. We ask you to observe t ha t Mr. Eb-

r igh t has been f r e e f r o m his old disorder fo r one year and

I bet ter . Th is medicine is not designed f o r jus t t empora ry relief, • but fo r pe rmanen t res tora t ion. |

RE-JU-VA not only contains j u s t the r ight combinat ion

I f o r promoting excellent elimination, but in addit ion, con ta ins • f o u r of the best known elements fo r blood-building with o ther | | splendid ingredients f o r toning the whole system.

I RE-JU-VA is an Inexpensive t r e a tmen t when compared with l{ others . A 16 oz. bottle and an average 30-day t r e a tmen t for only I S2. A remedy t ha t produces results and brings renewed health

The World at Your Elbow

FROM a n y t e l e p h o n e of t h i s com-

pany you can talk not only lo locali-ties throughout Michigan, but also to distant cities, ships at sea, many foreign lands—to thirty million tele-phones dis t r ibuted all over the world. You can do this because the Michigan Bell Telephone Company is a component par t of the Bell

System. In addition to wider service, that

relationship enables us to give you better service; for it places at our disposal thousands of valuable pat* ents and the most efficient methods of operation; it secures for us the benefits of constant research by hun-dreds of scientists in the famous Bell Laboratories specialists whose only mission year in and year out is to develop means of improving the ser-vice— to find "a better thing or a better way.** It assures us assistance in financing; it provides us with the world's finest tele-phone equipment, produced

by the Western Electric Company, manufacturing division of the Bell System. It permits us, in short, to share in every progressive step in thc evolution of the telephone.

And it e n a b l e s us to r e n d e r cheaper service; for all these assets —the f ru i ts of a long-sustained policy of good management — come to us under our contract with Ameri-can Telephone and Telegraph Com-pany at a cost much lower t h a n would be possible without our asso-ciation in the Bell System.

America today holds undisputed world supremacy in telephonic com-munication. That leadership grew out of the facilities and the forward-looking policies of the Bell System.

And it is because the Michigan Bell Telephone Company is a part of that system that we are now sup-plying the people of this Slate with

a service never surpassed in quality, and reaching to most civilized areas of the globe.
