exception is the line that connects the city with the hydro plant on Flat River.

The Lowell Power Board wore advised by their engineers that to bring the lines up to modern stan-dards It would cost some J200.000 which would not be warranted by the revenue now being received. The alternative Is to sell the lines to Consumers Power Co. who serve In the same area.

In order to dispose of the lines there will have to be a city elec-Uon to approve selling city owned property. According to the char-ter a special election may be call-ed in 45 days which would bring the vote Into July or perhaps the vote could be held at the same time as the Con-Con primary on July 25th. Voters must give ap-proval by a three-fifths mijorl-ty.

The decision to buy power from Consumers Instead of operating the Diesel plant will be made lat-er but because of the time PIP-ment on the sale of the rural lines, the Power Board will ask for an election date.

Dogs Kill 70 Chickens

In the early morning hours, sometime between May 1 and May 2, two stray dogs running at large, entered the chicken coop of Mr. and Mrs. Melvin Court liv-ing at 10594 Grand River Dr.. Low-ell, Michigan, and killed seventy chickens. Mr. and Mrs. Court are elderly and seml-retlred with very little Income except for the In-come from the sale of eggs. This Inoldpnt has been a tragic loss.

As the County dog warden and game warden, I feel that this sto-ry should be published In every newspaper In the county, to warn all dog owners of the terrible dam-age that can. be committed by-dogs when they are not tied up or under reasonable control. This latest loss reported to my office brings the total to one hundred and eleven (111) chickens and two registered-blue ribbon sheep that have been killed in the past wiek in Kent County. This rash of un-necessary killings of livestock and poultry must stop and so I am asking the public to co-operate with out department In bringing these gross violations under con-trol.

The Michigan State dog laws provide that a dog can be shot whenever it comes within 40 feet of any enclosure that iiouses live-stock and poultry. It is the only way to prove that a dog had been on the nroperty. Another factor is that, once a dog has tasted blood of any animal or fowl that It causes the dog to search for more and will return or enter someone else's property.

I am not a dog hater and I do not blame the dogs because the animals act on Instinct. However, I do blame the people who har-bor dogs. Letting a dog outdoors to exercise is no guarantee that the dog will remain on Its proper-ty. They very seldom do.

Another serious problem of let-ting dogs run at. large is the un-necessary killing of wildlife and destruction of nests. The conser-vation department as well as the county animal shelter ask every-one who uwii dogs tu keep them tied from now until early fall.

Dogs will be shot, if found de-stroying wildlife or chasing deer.

Howard Ward, Navy Recruiter from the Grand Rapids area , will retire f rom the Navy at the end of 1961. Last year tho Wards pur-chased the former Glddings 100 acre f a r m in Solon Twp., across White Creek Rd. from the Gus and Hannah Reuss farm.

Howard's conservation plan calls for 18 acres of field strips to be used this year. Three rolling fields will be renovated for Improved pasture. Birdsfoot Trefoil will be planted in 1962 in two fields.

Open areas in 60 acres of wood-lots will gradually be underplant-ed to White Pine. Two odd shaped rough-open areas will be saved for a wildlife crop with multlflora rose and a few other berried shrubs planteo for additional feed.

And so. a soil and water con-servation plan for each ac re ac-cording to Its capability use has been made with the Wards. After ret irement Howard will keep about twenty head of native feeders.

* • * Mrs. Kwiatowski and son Frank

have increased their field strips from 45 acres to 62 acres this year. Their now seedings look good. Frank remarked that the meadow strips caught and held more snow than did the open strips last winter. Increased yields have proven their value.

* • • As soon as we delivered and

h a d discussed Leon Brechtlng's Conservation Farm Plan in Alpine Twp., he asked us to see the re-sults he had obtained f rom mini-mum tillage on early cabbage, ear-ly potatoes and with his first North Star sweet com.

"We had the least amount of run-off we have ever had after planting," Leon explained. "We planted these crops directly after plowing with no fitting. Planting

* * * Gerald Host, Alpine Twp., also

| has made good use of minimum tillage. He likes tho new fescue

jWe suggested enough tillage in a narrow strip along each row to lessen moisture competition. How-

lever fescue dies down and is more or less dormant in mid-summer when such protective cover might compete for moisture.

| Stops were made at R a l p h I Pra t t ' s milking parlor, where the l boys and girls saw that milk real-ly came from a cow. Another stop was at the M. H. Rose' Polled Hereford fa rm, and where they saw Director Ed Par meter "plow planting" for potatoes directly acress the road. Further down the same road the Stewarts were also planting. A rye cover crop was turned down on both farms.

They saw the Phillips F a r m Pond and had lunch at Wabasis Lake County Park. Tree planting, field strips, contour strips, and other land use such as subdivi-sions. roads, cemeteries, schools, golf courses were pointed out as the four buses moved along.

The last stop was made at the Kitson Poultry farm on M-44 where conservation farming along with the latest equipment for egg production is carried on.

• • • We would like to predict that

Dick Court will be one of the fin-est hurdlers In the state. The strides in hurdles are difficult to master. To take the necessary long steps the hurdler must be tall, fast, and have good form in "stepping" over the hurdles. Ma-ny of us recall Lowell's F a s e brothers who controlled the one, two sjiots in the valley meets for 3 years. I^eonard was 5'6" and a "11 second hundred" man which is not especially fast. However, his hurdling form was so good that we suspect that he was one of the world's greatest in his height and speed range. Leonard will be graduating from Alma this year, and will be entering the coaching field.

• • • Ron Wilson has been posting

some fine mile runs despite the poor track weather . Gene Foster, a local track enthusiast, is help-ing Coach Perry with Ron's train-ing since Ron cannot attend prac-tices.

* * * Eastern Michigan College is al-

so joining the line of colleges who are limiting enrollment due to In-sufficient funds allocated by our present state congress. T h e s e short funds will cause many stu-dents to be denied t^eir right to attend college (state colleges are notoriously less expensive). Does this seem consistent with our dem-ocratic concept of equality of op-portunity? Is this the period in history in which we should begin economizing on our higher educa-tion?

• • • Eddie Rldgeway's five wins to

three losses is impressive for val-ley tennis competition.

• • * We were having pref ty good

luck with the morel mushrooms last week, but the wife was stray-ing quite f a r from the hunter. In order fo induce her to s tay closer (and not betfome lost) we men-tlo ed that we saw a few bear signs. The timing was poor. She had just reached down to pluck one of the sponge-like goodies when she saw a black fu r ry animal about which sne began to loudly broadcast while taking long bound-ing strides similar to a deer who has been whisked by an arrow. Knife drawn and stealthy, we ap-proached the area of action.

Wo peered into a hollow log and two oyer, peered back momentari-ly. A sudden shifting arranged the rear of the animal's anatomy to-

, ward us to display a many spin-led tail to his amused audience. He wagged his tail briskly a cou-ple t imes to sound warning, and despite his % lb. size his warning was well respected. A baby Por-ky or any other porcupine can-not throw his quills, but If lie tags you or your dog (as most often happens) you will long remember It. Besides having ba ibs to make for difficult extraction, the quills swell on the "inside." A dash of vinegar and a pair of pliars, will facilllate the removal of the some-times fatal quills.

HE ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN —

Jesus Christ: The Real Cosmonaut Over 1900 yonrs ago Jesus Christ ascended bodily Into henven from Mt. Olivet,

so that Jesus Christ in glory Is the real Cosmonaut. Only the Christian Church can glory in a Hero who has truly conquered the cosmos and is now ruling from His

' throne in Heaven. Yet there are men on pulpits today who would sooner believe that a Russian Communist. Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin, conquered space and circled the earth, than that Christ ascended into Heaven. If you believe Christ's ascension, wor-ship with us this evening (Wednesday) at 7:30 P. M. as we worship our Hero, our Savior, the Son of Clod. Worship Him with us every Sunday, too.

Hebrews 4:14 "Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that Is passed into the Heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession."

HENRY BUIKEMA, PASTOR Where the Bible IH received, and believed, and proached,

not as the word of man, but as it is in truth, the word of God.

Needed: Christian Mothers What a privilege mothers enjoy that they may bring forth

children. But what a responsibility goes with it, for it is tho mother who, more than any other, affects the moral and spir-itual part of the children's character. How Important, then, that we have Christian mothers who, having faith in Jesus Christ themselves, lead their children to the Savior, too. Some mothers, however, have sold their spiritual blMhright for a mess of pottage, and a re passing on this mess of pottage to their children. What a tragedy!
