Roosevelt, the President’s wife, as having contained a formula that permitted young women to drink without becoming intoxicated. The Governor was unmoved by the storm of comment. Believed in Public Prayer He was a Methodist Sunday school teacher unafraid to pray in public. He invited others to join him in public prayer and take advantage of what he called his “pipeline to God.” Born in Niagara County, New York, on April 15, 1859, he went to Michigan as a baby, grew up on a farm near Charlotte and went || | to rural schools.

He lived in a modest yellow frame house on a farm wi he inherited from his father. % Dickinson was 74 years old when husband became Governor. Because of ill-health she rarely was seen by the capitol building. i GENERAL HAROWOOD CO. Tun«u § /”MLM:} Lon Domestic and Imported .
