If} epark, or Alvwood, or other towns appear to have recieved er sum than their share, consider the location and the people’s needs. If any sum is spent in building trunk roads or bridges through any town remember it is merely incidental to the splendid munetrical developement of the whole district and the entire and ty Has your town fez ared as well or thereto? been no $50,000 bond issue during this or better during the past 21 months than it did pri Remember there has period Public money has been scarce and appropriations hard to get. Every dollar secured has been fought for by your Commis- sioner. Have you an interest in seeing work now progressing, finished? Mr. King can no longer, as commissioner, help, unless you elect him. Have you an interest in preserving the work done? His protection ends if you permit his defeat. THE CARNIVAL OF MONTHS OCT, 29-30 Ladies of the Presbyterian Church Will Furnish Entertainment and Serve Supper. As announced last week the ladies of the Presbyterian church are mak- ing elaborate preparations for a “Carnival of Months,” at Village hall on October 29 and 30. The hall will be open to the public at 30’clock on the afternoon of the 29th. Thursday evening the 29th a piano recital will be given by Miss Cecelia Berry of Chicago musical college, for which an admission fee of 15 cents will be charged. Of Miss Berry the Indianopolis News says: “Cecelia Ray Berry, the Indiana pianist who concertizes in the west this season, gives a unique and inspirational entertainment. It may be styled ‘Stories of Great Musicians Illustra- ted.’ Her program represents a varied range of selections and she prefaces each number with interesting nar- rative and poetic reference in such. a way that the musically uninitiated can understand and appreciate as well as the diletante. Critics have praised her work in unbounded terms as being educational, uplifting and highly en- joyable. Possessed of fine stage pres sence and eminent ability she will doubtless meet with great success on present recital tour.” Fridy evening the 30th a New England supper will be served, beginning 2t5:30, for which 25 cents will be charged. Asaclosing feature the result of the “penny contest” will be an- nounced. The months will be represented as follows: January.. .. -New zor Open House ‘Mrs. HG.

Whenever a piece of printing ma- chinery breaks in this shop, instead of having to send away to the factory for anew part, George Riddell, the village blacksmith, fixes it up in short order—and he fixed it right. We fre- quently notice in our exchanges whole volleis of imprecations and maledic- tions hurled at their costive gasolene engines. They are cften looked upon as the arch enemy of the busy printery, Not so here. When the engine in- dicates—as only a gasolene engine can indicate—that all is not in proper working order, and the pressman is unable to diagnose the case a mes- senger is forthwith dispatched for M. A. Boorman, George Shook, Will Nts- bett, Art Garris or I. D. Rassmussea, any ore of whom can locate the dis- ease at the first turn of the wheel. In a very brief space of time she is pounding along as merrily as ever, and the whole force looks happy. It's a mighty handy thing to bave these mechanical specialists in a town and no one appreciates them more than does the Herald-Review. When it comes to writing their obituaries in the distant future—we hope it may be—they will each get extra space and not a few extra touches of praise for the good that they had done. The Ogema at Pokegama lake has been enjoying a very good business of late, as the register shows. Last Sun- day the following guests enjoyed the hospitality of that popular resort, be- sides many others from Grand Rapids: Mr. and Mrs. Charles Claypool, Mrs. Jack McLaren, Maxwell Scatt, David R. McKee Jr., G. G. St. Clair, Duraot Barclay, S. G. Plummer, Coleraine; Madge Miller, Miss Fee, Miss St. Clair, E. E. Geiss, Duluth; Miss Wol- cup, Boston; John E. Tapley. Marble; Dr. J. H.
