Supt . H. L. Bleecker told the Hart school that he didnt consider the mid - winter rally at Shelby worth going to . For 20 years Hart and Shelby and Pentwat- er pulled together to make the mid - winter rally a suc- cess . And now comes one man wiser than his gener- ation and throws a monkey wrench into the machine to see if he cannot stop the works . It is the heritage of every teacher and school child in Oceana county to have these days off just for this institute . The from Ann state of Michigan sends speakers to us Arbor and Ypsilanti and Kalamazoo , Mr. Bleecker doesn't like Shelby .

Men wanted for harvesting ice . The Kimball Co. , Foot of North Third Street , Muskegon .

In our big broad vision of the universe Sid Fuller looms no larger than a fly - speck on the horizon : and the things he says and the threats he throws are so much like fly - specks in their value and worth and chemical content . Imagine our casual contempt and unconcealed amusement when the word comes that the next time we write Sid Fuller up he is going to tear our clothes right off of us when he meets us in the street .

We thought it too good to keep to ourselves .

The Mears Oddfellow lodge now has a ri- val in the Owl Club which has a hangout on the second - floor of the second - hand store . One of the unexplainable things

about it is how a self - respecting scholar like Bert Post should care to belong with a fellow like Sid Fuller for presi- dent . We understand the following rules have been suggested by thoughtful mem- bers : 1 - No swearing in this lodge room . ( suggested by Elmer Wyckoff . ) 2 - No po- ker allowed . If you want to stir up fire use a stick of wood . ( suggested by Tony Snyder . ) 3 - No politics shall be aloud . ( Suggested by Sid Fuller .

Mrs. Hotel Peifer has got mad at the bus lines and kicked their waiting room out of her , vestibule . Too many cracker crumbs , too many brown baptisms
