Warren T. Schenck Walks Uptown over IcySidewalks on His 94th Birthday on Tuesday

Warren T. Schenck, one of thepioneer settler of this community,celebrated his 94th birth anniver-sary on Tuesday, March 4. Mr.Schenck fails to register in looksor actions his advanced years andcan easily pass for a man manyyears younger. Although his eye-sight 'and hearing are not as keenas they were a few years ago, hisgeneral health is quite good. Eventhough the icy walks and coldweather kept many younger peopleindoors on Tuesday, Mr. Schenckenjoyed a walk from his home tothe Wood Drug Store and return,a distance of six blocks.

Mr. Schenck was born in Canis-steo, Steuben County, New York,in 1847 and came to EllingtonTownship, Tuscola County, in 1867.While working on the farm for anuncle in that township, he becameacquainted with Miss Mary Camp-bell and they were united in mar-riage in November, 1869. Previousto this time, he had bought an 80-acre farm, 1% miles northwest ofCass City. He had cleared and puttwo acres into wheat and had a

house built before his wedding day.Mr. Schenck cast his first ballot

in 1868. County business was thentransacted about % mile south ofwhere Cass City now stands, in asmall building, the place beingcalled Moonshine, because of theway the moon shone into the build-ing. There was a strife betweenVassar and Caro for the countyseat. Mr. Schenck favored andvoted for the location at Caro.

In the spring of 1898, Mr. andMrs. Schenck left the farm to livein Cass City and a year later builta residence on West Main Street.He served as a member of theboard of education and a directorof the fair association and was thefirst to sell Ford cars in Cass City.

In his early days, he learned thecarpenter trade and has alwaysbeen handy with tools. Each ofhis children has a choice piece offurniture in his or her home, theproduct of Mr. Schenck's handi-work.

\jon-PariisanNews Letter

State Capitol, Lansing—Michi-gan's "invisible government," com-prising organized minority pressuregroups, is an unforeseen benefici-ary of the 1940 civil service amend-ment.

Where administration and legis-lative leaders once traded jobs forpolitical support, the merit systemhas ruled arbitrarily that employ-ment shall be on the sole basis ofqualifications, determined accord-ingly by competitive examinations.

Accordingly, both Democratic andRepublican leaders find themselvesutterly helpless to sweeten theirmachines with patronage.

It is an astonishing situation—to a politician, at least!

The alternative is a legislativedeal, in lieu of patronage.

For that reason veteran lobbyistsare frankly concerned. They don't

"Third Chamber"Pressure groups, or organized

minority blocs, have been said toconstitute a "third chamber" ofmodern government.

They have made political two-party rule somewhat of a myth.

William Allen White, Emporia(Kansas) editor, referred to themas follows:

"The constitution has been sup-planted and we have two kinds ofgovernment—our political govern-ment which is supposed to be in thehands of a majority of the people;and a group of organized minori-ties, making an uncontrolled buttremendously powerful, invisiblegovernment—the government ofminorities."

Whereas the traditional weaponsof legislative persuasion once werebooze and bribery, today's chiefguns are pressure and propaganda.

If you have a pet idea to developat Lansing, form an organization,raise a jackpot of money, by as-sessments, hire an "executive sec-retary," set up weighty committees,hold meetings by districts andtowns, and release pompous pressarticles—all for the purpose ofinfluencing public opinion and,what is more important, influencingthe legislature.

TJie Safety (Man,

Frequently in this column I havegiven credit to the splendid publici-ty given the subject of "Safety" bythe American press.

I have just finished reading anarticle by Mr. Cy Douglass, bureauchief of The Associated Press, inwhich he states that safety is bignews.

Mr. Douglass goes on to say thatsafety is big because it is a vitalfactor in the daily lives of all citi-

motorists, and pedestriansSafety, therefore, has be-

zens,alike,come a personal matter with us.

The American editors have seenfit to give safety equal considera-tion with the tremendous worldnews that finds its way to the frontpages of our newspapers.

Safety is your problem and myproblem. It belongs to us, it is apart of us; therefore, we shouldpay attention to safety require-ments in our daily lives.

When your community can go ayear without a fatality on itsstreets, that's not an accident—that's news.

AppeasementThe Democrats.' state convention

at Grand Rapids revealed the sorryplight of administration officials

pease political workers.Polish delegates from the first

congressional district, Detroit,went on a strike. They refused tovote on any question. They eventhreatened to nominate an opponentagainst G. Donald Kennedy forhighway commissioner—all becauseof a hunger for "more" patronage.

Paul T. Anderson, acting civilservice director, recently disclosedthat only 34 out of the 18,000 eraployees were dismissed in the firstseven weeks of 1941. One yearago the dismissals totaled 216,while two years ago the job turn-over was delayed until May whenthe legislature revised the civilservice bill.

Because civil service has "jelled"nearly all employees into theirjobs, Republicans have benefittedfar more than the Democrats. Thisprompted the Republican majorityin the House of Legislature, in amood of righteousness, to ask aninvestigation of the legality of dis-missals since January 1 in "certaindepartments."

The liquor control commissionwas one target of this inquiry.Among deserving Democrats whohave been appointed to jobs recent-ly is former Senator Henry O'Shea,now a prohibition lecturer—if youplease.

moned only, and if, local officialsasked for them—an entirely dif-ferent thing.

At the Grand Rapids convention jthe state C. I. O. declined flatly toparticipate. Wise to bargainingadvantages, Richard Frankensteen,international vice president of U.A. W.-C. I. 0., explained that labor

leaders were going to wait untilboth parties had shown their cardswith regard to labor legislation.

Organized labor does not want a30-day strike notice, such as wasgiven in the Motor Wheel tie-up.They favor a wage-hour law witha 50-cent per hour minimum and40-hour per week maximum for allintrastate commerce—all stores,example, coming in this classifica-tion.

Bowling News

MiscellanyBoth industrial and labor leaders

are said to be cool towards theBrake "anti-sabotage" bill whichwas drafted at Washington, D. C.,by the department of justice as a!model for state legislation. Rea-;son: "Hysteria" legislation is sel-jdom sound.

Thrift-minded Vernon J. Brown,state auditor general, recently ad-vocated the establishment of a stateinsurance fund to save taxpayersmany millions of dollars annually.During the past three years thestate paid to politically-favoredagents a total amount of $10,395,-638 in surety bond premiums, whilelosses recovered totaled only $2,-898,166.-

Conservationists insist that theKnox bill for redemption of tax-reverted lands in Northern Michi-gan would deprive the state ofvaluable mineral rights; would re-store these to mining and lumbercompanies.

House Bill 177, advocated by un-ion painters, would prohibit a brfsi-ness man from utilizing unproduc-tive time of his employees for thepurpose of painting and decoratinghis shop or store. An exemptionfor communities under 5,000 popu-lation is for one year only. Fur-thermore, the bill would deprivehardware dealers of paint sales—all, of course, in the interest of the"public welfare."

Opponents to the prepaid salestax plan are quietly spreading theword that a gross income tax maybe an unwelcome result of legisla-tive tinkering—jumping from thefrying pan into the fire.

By G. W. Landon, Secretaryof Bowling League.

The Knapp and Ludlow teamsnow share the first place positionafter the hectic struggles of an-other week of bowling. The Knapp"Youngsters" look like the team tobe reckoned with, while Ludlow'steam has been inspired by the ef-forts of their lead man, CulleyHamilton, who has been' cutting abig swath in the maples of late.Both these teams stand high intotal pins and good totals winplenty of games.

Several individuals rolled sub-stantial totals during the week tobolster up their averages. "Ike"Parsch topped the list by rollingfor 591 pins and gained third placefop high totals. Other counts wor-thy of mention are Landon, 578;Hamilton, 566; Starmann, 564; Lar-kin, 560; and Dillman, 559.

Larkin's team furnished the bestbowling since this last schedule ofgames opened by defeating the No-vak team three games and in doingthis they rolled the highest three-game totals recorded, 2,494 pins.Their last game in the series (903)is also the highest single game yetchalked up.

When 3,000 Motor Wheel Corp.employees (A. F. of L.) went _on•strike at Lansing for a closed unionshop, production ceased on a $4,-00,000 national defense contract.Another "bottleneck" came into be-ing.

Spencer Miller, Jr., New YorkCity, director of the AmericanFederation of Labor workers edu-cation bureau, had pleaded at thestate A. F. of L. convention forworkers to forfeit their right tostrike during the nation's presentarmament production crisis.

Governor Van Wagoner promptlycondemned the union for having"broken" its word, and he urgedemployees to return to work,pledging state police protection.

But the next day when a laborcommittee visited the executive of-fices and registered an angry pro-test, the governor talk in glitter-ing generalities about "law andorder" and assured the committeethat state police would be sum-

comments C. G. Card, head of theMichigan State College poultryhusbandry department. The de-partment is cooperating with theMichigan Allied Poultry Industriescommittee to sponsor the specialcampaign.

"The low price of eggs at thistime of year, considered from thefood value, makes them very de-sirable as well as a very economi-cal source of food." Some of theslogans adopted for the campaigninclude "Take Home an ExtraDozen," "Eggs Good for Children,Students and Grown-ups," "EggsAre Rich in Vitamins and Miner-als."

INVENTS SOIL MOISTURE TEST

Months were necessary under old methods. Dr. G. J. Bouyoucos ofthe Michigan State College staff developed this electrical resistancetester that gives a reading in 20 to 30 seconds on the soil moistureavailable for growing plants.

M. S. C. Man FindsSoil Water Test

Another headache has been re-moved from scientific agriculture.A Michigan State College researchman has developed a device thatwill reveal how much soil moistureis available for plant growth with-out waiting two or three monthsfor results under old methods. It'slike reading the mind of the soil, ifsoil had a mind.

Dr. G. J. Bouyoucos1 of the soilsdepartment staff of the college per-formed the miracle. In 20 to 30seconds, with the variation of theWheatstone bridge, which measureselectrical resistance, the device hedeveloped can tell the amount ofsoil moisture, the soil is able torelease from between soil particles.

Old methods involved lifting asection of soil and putting this ina greenhouse under controlled con-ditions, waiting for growing plantsto wilt. Now the test is taken rightin the field.

Briefly, the method permits moreaccurate knowledge for applyingthe most efficient volume of waterin irrigation. It can tell when toirrigate and when enough waterhas been applied.

A porous absorption block aboutthe size of a pocket matchbox isburied in the field. Wires lead tothe surface. This block is made of;plaster of paris and it takes onmoisture or gives.it up just as does•the soil surrounding it. When"-moisture is available, resistance isproportionately less than when thesoil and the test block do not haveas much moisture. This variationcan be determined accurately bythe resistance device which isequipped with earphones for ac-curate readings. The equipmentweighs but 10 pounds.

Dr. Bouyoucos predicts wideusage in Michigan greenhouses andeven in open field conditions wherefarmers are increasing midsummerirrigation. Western states' farm-.ers are eagerly demanding details.

Hardy, Husky Birds That Are Easy to Raise.All Hatched from Culled and Bloodtested Flocks.

TO OUR MANY FRIENDS AND CUSTOMERS:Naturally, we take great pride in our chicks, for

they represent in Quality, a lot of hard work and care-ful attention. We feel well repaid for our efforts.Our old customers come back yearafter year, and weare adding new ones. Which, we believe, proves thatthere CAN NEVER BE A SUBSTITUTE FORQUALITY, ESPECIALLY IN BABY CHICKS.

You will find that Poultry Profits can be increasedif you raise more Quality Baby Chicks. Sell off theexcess cockerels; there is good money to be madequickly in supplying early broilers then keep your pul-lets, and as they come into lay, you can cull them close-ly. Dispose of those that fail to meet the requirementsof high egg production. Keep only the ones thatshow a ready determination to lay eggs in abundance,then with the approach of fall and winter with higheregg prices—you can make BIGGER PROFITS thanever before. Egg prices throughout the coming yearwill be above corresponding periods of last year, be-cause of the prospective supply situation, according toeconomists in the U. S. Department of Agriculture.

Veteran of many a trip between house and barn, the old lantern hasbecome a museum piece. It deserves a place in the parlor, for its workis Today's farming requires the most up-to-date equipment,'andgood electric lighting can be one of the farmer's most helpful tools.

Plenty of light everywhere on the farm—in the barns and farmyard,in the workshop, the silo and all out-buildings—helps to increaseefficiency, speeds up the chores, protects against accidents and thiev-ery, removes the danger of fire from overturned lamps. Lights in thepoultry house increase egg production during the period when eggprices are high.

Good lighting brightens and beautifies the farm home, brings morecomfort and enjoyment to the whole family, and helps to protect againsteyestrain. Lighting adaptors, costing only a dollar or two, make iteasy to have good lighting in any room. For complete information,consult your electrical dealer or the Edison Farm Service Adviser.

RACING CARS DO NOT ALLHAVE MANY CYLINDERS-

The popular idea is that fast rac-ing cars have 12 to 16 cylinders, butthis is far from being the usualcase. Four-cylinder cars are usedmore in racing than are engines ofmore cylinders. The four-cylindercars are said to be more reliableand simpler. Six and eight cylindersare sometimes used, but not as fre-quently as four cylinders.

Detroit AdvertisingCompany CelebratedIts 30th Anniversary

Thirty years of "advertising welldirected" were celebrated by theCampbell-Ewald Company of De-troit during February, for it was inthat month in 1911 that the com-pany was incorporated at Lansing,Michigan. ,

This anniversary makes this ad-vertising agency the oldest in De-troit, and one of the few agenciesin the country to have retained itscorporate indentity and its direct-ing head for so long a period.

During each of these years thecompany has had an average year-ly billing of more than $10,000,000,despite the fact that it did notreach an annual billing of a milliondollars until many years after itwas organized.

A large percentage of this moneyhas been spent each year in news-papers, for H. T. Ewald, the presi-dent of the company, is a firm be-

liever in this medium of advertising1.."Today, the newspaper, one of

the oldest mediums of advertising*.continues as a truly great an«Ipowerful force to sell goods," bestates, "and will continue to be *•spearhead of most advertising effortas long as it remains a free press.

"While each advertising cam-paign should have a tailor-mademerchandising and advertising suit?the merchandisers of few commodi-ties of general use can afford t®ignore the tremendous cleavagepower of newspapers, weekly as?well as daily.

j "I often think of newspaper ad-jvertising as an electric switch that\ actually turns on the light, wheat, and where the light is needed. Thi«' medium seems to me to be rightbehind the actual salesman and theactual sale."

Probably one of the greatestprides of Mr. Ewald is in the finan-cial integrity of his organizationduring its entire corporate life. Ithas never missed a cash discount iathe payment of publication an<Lother bills—nor a payroll—f or evea,during the State of Michigan and^later, the national bank holiday ia

j 1938, the money for the payroll wasCrushed from New York City by-airplane.

Employees on FarmsOn January 1, 1939, there were

about 1,629,000 hired workers, in ad-dition to 7,138,000 family workers onfarms in the United States.
