Pair of Yellow Eyei

Startle John Tucker For several mornings John Tuck-

er, Grand River Drive, thought he heard peculiar nofees from the direction of his heating stove, but the noise not continuing dismissed the matter until Tuesday morning when upon opening the stove door he faced a pair of big yellow eyes glaring a t him.

Being doubtful as to the identity of the poaKsaor, he called his next door neighbor, Cecil Cole, and with the aid of leather gauntlets, the two captured the Intruder—a full grown Hoot Owl.

Needless to say John can dis-pense with a chimney sweep this year.

Million Persons Visit Kent Parks

That's more m a n tour times the County's population, which means that every person in Kent County, mathematically if not, actually visits one or more parks four times a year.

PICTLRESqiTE

Viators into wayside spots inform us that there are many country towns restoring the old-fashioned watering troughs into a new life. Whether wooden, granite or metal, they decorate the landscepe and re-call days when over-heated horses plunged their heads to drink. Many a man of Lowell remembers a boyish prank of placing frogs or turtles in them. Minnows deemed to thrive there too. Aged and moss covered, that trough was a mid-summer pleasure from the heat of day. Work or driving horses lapped the clear, cold water and snorted with deep aatisfaction.

In early years the trough was of heavy wooden planks which were later replaced by metal ones, ofteh decorated by scrolls and figures. There Is something kindly In the idea that man today leana to the simplicity of the old-time watering trough.

attributed to an insufficient food supply, and their consequent ina-bility to bring up a race of healthy children, who have the energy to build up their country.

I t can be assumed that one of the reasons for the success of the old pioneers In building up this country, was tha t they had an am-ple food supply. The woods were full of game, and the rivers and lakes had plenty of fish- T h e ground was rich, and they reaped good harvests. Thus with ample food they became s t rong and healthy people, able to do great days' works. The world w o u l d move faster If all countries had enough food.

Hoover stressed that the "vast army" of criminals "is 10 times greater in number than the number of students In our colleges and unl-versitlee. Ankl for every school teacher in America there are more than ceven criminals."

In an interview. Hoover out-lined what he considers the im-mediate causes for "the present wave of lawlecaness." and he sug-gested some remedial measures.

He attributed the crime wave to: "A recession of moral fortitude,

laxity in parental control, lowered moral standards, social and eco-nomic conditions, and abuses and maladministration of the penal system." He emphasized "laxity In parental control." eaylng:

"A lack of Interest in the funda-mentals of matrimony, in the prop-er rearing of children, is a cause

"We must eradicate the cause of crime at its roots. Small crimes generally precede great crimes and too often these email crimes are perpetrated by youngrters still pre-sumably under home influence. Every home in America must be-come a sanctuary for good citi-zenship and not, as in many in-stances today, a breeding place for criminals."

Hoover asserted he "is convinced that if all parents fulfill their ob-ligations to their children we would soon experience a sharp decline in crime" and added:

"Rather than indulge In crltl-chro of our youth today, our first job should be to set for them an example to follow in model homes where the tenets of good cltlren-ship, the precepts of right and the fundamentals of democracy are not only tau jh t but dally prac-ticed."

accident these high figures In agri-culture might be lessened.

Our office has received a trans-cript of the Kent County broad-cast "This la Our County" made over W L 8 early In June. It cat\ be given on a victrola or similar machine. Oroupa who care to use the record may get the same at the Extension Service Office.

Watch out for the gang who might be coming to your place and want to clean your septic tank. Gale Pox at the Grand Rap-Ids Chamber of Commerce tells me It Is quite a racket these da>*. Generally, the racketeer it from out of the state and has few if any references. There are plenty of good reliable folks doing this work who live In or around Grand Rapids. Before you let anyone clean your tank, check his resi-dence and references. Anyway a properly built septic tank needs very little cleaning out and if you do need a cleaning )ob have a definite understanding of Us cost.

When the school commissioner moved from his former quarters he left behind a book that many older folks will remember "Manual of Orthography" by H. R. Patten-gill. Turning the cover we saw

list of Pattengill publications such as "Moderator Topics", "Civil Government of Michigan", "Knap-sack" and a number of others. These all bring back memories of days in public school as a student and rural teacher. We never liked the study of orthography and it waa one of the hard subjects to teach in school.

Fay Benjamin of Nelson Town-ship came Into the office and did some reminiscing on the book for not only did he study it in the Eaf t Nelson school but taught It there

well. Contrary to the county agent he liked it.

Michigan educators have never had as colorful a person as H. R. Pattengill.

As the second half of 1946 gets under way, there arc still 100,000 families waiting for telephones. Of these, 49,000 have placed their orders since the first of the year.

We still have to expand our fadlitict in 200 exchanges to give service to everyone who has ordered a telephone.

We now hope that most of the orders for service received before January 1,1946, can be filled by the end of the year. In some areas, of course, we expect to com-plete many orders recdved this year, but it may be late 1947 before we can return to a "ready-to-serve" basis everywhere.

Meanwhile, we are loading our present equipment far beyond its normal capac-ity, to shorten the wait for as many folks as uosuhle. This may affect the quality of

THIS WEEK'S SERMON • By PAUL Z. HOORNSTRA

Text: Isa. 45:22—"Look unto me and be ye saved—for I am God and there is none else."

Introduction; Laat week we learned that we are saved FROM (1) the Presence and (2) the Power of sin in our lives. Today we con-sider the next question; What are we saved FOll?

L We are saved to love God and people with all our hearts. Salva-tion ia not Juat a peas-port to Heav-en. Redemption Is more than an

"open sesame" at the gates of Eternity. Man Is saved or convert-ed ao he can love God and his fel-iow-man. If there be no good-will and sincere fellowship In a man, then that man's religloiv comes abort of Christian demands.

n . We are saved to live for God and for our fellow man. Conversion Is mam's equipment for service. A

religion that falla to prompt activ-ity Is less tl^an no religion at all. We are saved to do things for God and man. Through the Church of our oholoe and In everyday Uving there arise countleaa opportunities for service. Have you been of ser-vice today?.

Next Week: TO?
