"At the present time, we arehousing 865 students in our build-ing. These students come from ourown district and nine closed ruraldistricts. Grades, 430; Junior High,95; Senior High, 340. Next yearwe will have an increase in highschool of some fifty students mak-ing a total enrollment in our highschool of over 400 students. Theprevious high was 376 students. Inaddition to this increase, we arexperiencing a gradual increase in

grade students both from Cass Cityand the surrounding areas. We ex-pect to add one new grade teachernext year. This will give'us tworooms for each grade from one to

inclusive, and reduce thenumber of students per rodm. Wewill be the third largest highschool in the Thumb area nextyear."

The last payment on the bondson the present school building will

made in March, 1951, and thetotal tax at the presenttime is 12 mills, seven mills-of which is assessed foroperating and five mills for debtservice. The tax levy for nextyear'will be five plus mills foroperating and six mills for debtservice. This was estimated as themaximum tax for 1950. The pres-ent assessed valuation of theichool district is $2,420,410.00.

Bonds can be retired sooner thanthe 15-year period by using tuitionfunds. The state allows the dis-trict to use 17% of its State Aidfor building pirposos. At f'present time this amount . , isequivalent to more than the annualbond payments.

The Power of the Resurrection(Easter).

Lesson for April 9: / Corinthians1>: 1-8, 20-21, 57-58.

Memory Selections I Corinthians15:57.TT IS BELIEVED that Paul's ac-^ count of the resurrection ante-dated the Gospel accounts. Hisrecord was current, perhaps, notlater than 25 years after Christarose. A f t e r the resurrectionChrist was seen by more than 500brethren at once, by Peter, James,the disciples, and Paul himself. Itis significant that none of thosestill living, of those named, everdisputed Paid.

Life comes to men through theresurrection of the Lord. If in thislife only we have hope in Christ,Paul reasons, we are of all menmost miserable. But, assured thatChrist has risen, we know that weshall rise and live with him theperfect life.

Christ is like the first-fruits ofthe field that give promise of "anabundant harvest. "For since byman came death, by man camealso the resurrection of the dead."

The resurrection also insures thetriumph of the gospel, and menare exhorted to give thanks untoGod for eternal life, to stand firmand be assured that what they dowill not be in vain in the Lord.

They have sure promise of liv-ing the perfect life in the endlessday. For in heaven, where the re-deemed shall dwell for aye withGod, naught will enter in to defileand to destroy.

May the grand truth of the res-urrection—the promise of resur-rection from the death of sin andnew life in Christ—lead ,you.

The service of worship at thePresbyterian Church at 10:30 a. m.will begin with a processional bythe senior and junior choirs. Therewill be an anthem by the juniorchoir of which Mrs. FrederickAuten and Mrs. Charles Auten arein charge.

The text was based upon Markll:3a, "The Lord hath need of . .."(1) Loyal disciples, response toChrist; (2) Then there are, also,needed the material instru-mentalities of possessions that areconsecrated for utilization; (3)Also, organization is needful, hencethe instrumentality of the Church(Universal) which is "not a man-mad© institutien, the product ofthe club-instinct applied to re-ligion," as Dr. James Reid puts it,"but the product, or logical out-growth of God's seeking, findingand fashioning a society of menand women in whom" (and throughwhom) "His redeeming love canbe more perfectly expressed forthe saving of the world and thebuilding of His Kingdom." lii otherwords an institution Divinely or-dained, but humanly administered;(4) A program, inherent in theGospel and Christ's commission"Go ye into all the world, and makedisciples of all nations . . ." Herewe see the implications of the mis-sionary enterprise; and (5) Free-dom of worship implied in the factthat Jesus could not have enteredJerusalem and the Temple insafety, had it not been for the ac-claim of the populous which theentrenched powers feared.

"In the final analysis," saidRev. Vender, "the speed of Christ'striumphal entry'into the life, orculture, and institutions, includingthe church, of our time will dependin large measure upon howtriumphantly He has entered, or

Silage carts cannot be used onall farms due to barn arrangement.But in many cases, minor changes

such as widening a door or re-placing a step with an inclinewould permit the use of a cart,Bookhout says.

future a total of nearly 8 millionone-hundred pound bags of beans.This, according to Prentice,amounts to almost the bean re-quirements for food for the nextyear.

"Lately there has been a greatdeal of publicity about MayorCobo's plan to clean up Detroit'seye sore—Michigan Avenue's skidrow," writes A. Blake Gillies,former Cass Cityan and now super-intendent of the Detroit House ofCorrection, in De-Ho-Co News, apublication printed for inmates ofthat institution. In the article Mr.Gillies goes on to say:

"This problem directly affects agreat many of you men, as a re-sult I think it is a worthy topic todiscuss with you in this issue ofThe De-Ho-Co News.

"First of all, I want all of you toknow that this is not just a wish-ful or timerous desire; but, it issomething that the mayor and thecitizens of Detroit have wanted todo for quite some time.

"Mayor Cobo has appointed acommittee of church and civicleaders to investigate conditionsand the problems that you menface. Upon completion of this in-vestigation the committee will sub-mit a report to the mayor withtheir recommendations to improvethe standards of living in the skidrow area.

"In this regard, about a hundredand fifty of you were asked ques-

, tions, and filled out questionnaires.These questionnaires, along withyour recommendations to improveconditions on skid row, were sub-mitted to the committee forfurther study.

"In other words, fellows, you areto have a direct part in thisendeavor. This is the big reasonwhy I think this effort will besuccessful. I don't think any right-thinking person desires to returnto the conditions of filth, andmoral degradation that is, and hasbeen so predominant in this areafor years., "I ask that each of you, uponyour release, assist the mayor andhis committee in their efforts tohelp you.

"With cooperation and teamwork, I am positive that thisworthy cause will be a success, andthe fact that each of you has anindividual interest in this projectwill eventually erase a few of thedifficulties that have beenstumbling blocks for you in thepast."

Michigan BeanGrowers Plan CutIn the 1950 Crop

Michigan bean farmers arewrestling with acreage figurespreparatory to taking a total cut of

, about 21 percent in area planted(this year to comply with recentfederal allotments.

Clarence Prentice, MichiganState College marketing specialist,says acreage alloted Michigan is 29percent of the U. S. total. Whilethe reduction for this state is inline with the national average, thespecialist says Michigan growershave not increased acreage inrecent years as much as westerngrowers.

Michigan's acreage has increasedabout 25 percent in the last quarterof a century, but during thatperiod Prentice .reports Idaho pro-duction up about 300 percent,Colorado 200 percent and Cali-fornia about 50 percent. Bean con-sumption has increased enough tomake up for acreage increases likethat in Michigan, but not for bigincreases in other states.

Prentice points out that plantingwithin the acreage allotment isnot mandatory,, hut it is requiredfor government price supports.The 1950 crop will be supported atan average of $6.30 a hundred,which is about 25 cents lower thancurrent supports.

The government now owns or isexpected to take over in the near

Several practices with the ten-sion, thread and cutting out of thegarment are recommended to pre-vent puckered seams. When the de-sign of the garment and drape ofthe fabric permit, place the patternon the crosswise rather than thelengthwise grain of the fabric.

Low thread tension is a necessitywhen sewing, on nylon. High ten-sion while sewing will stretch thethread and when it later recoversits original length it will make a

The forester advises early ordersso the nuts can be planted beforethe end of April. The nuts havebeen, .stratified over winter inmoist sand to keep them in goodgrowing condition until spring.They are sold in peck or bushellots. A peck holds about 225 nuts.

Walnuts should be planted infairly fertile farm soil in order toget best results. Odd corners notlarge enough to farm or openingsin the farm woodlots are excellentplaces to plant these nuts. Theygrow better mixed with otherhardwoods than in a pine planta-tion.

Gradually increasethe needle tension until a well-formed but not tight stitch is. madewith no loop on either side of thefabric. Sew a few seams to be cer-tain there are no skip stitches orthread breaks. Keep a constantcheck^ on tension adjustments whilesewing.

Keeping Michigan industry inMichigan has become one of thebiggest post-war problems beforethe Michigan Department ofEconomic Development, a new pro-motional state agency set up byEx-Governor Kim Sigler.

Because of the interest taken bythis state news-letter in thedevelopment of new industries forMichigan small towns, the "Michi-gan Mirror" writer was privilegedrecently to view a presentationmade by the state department inthe interest of a proposed $250,000industrial advertising fund to beraised by industry itself.

* # *A group of 50 business leaders

gathered recently at MichiganState College with the StateEconomic Development Commis-sion to study the problem. Otherstates are spending large sums ofmoney to woo industry into theirborders. While the Departmentof Economic Development, cooper-ating with local chambers of com-merce and utilities, has been suc-.cessful in attracting 'many newindustries to Michigan, there hasbeen a noticeable migration ofindustry from Michigan to otherstates.

Don Weeks, acting director ofthe state department, presented theprogram to the group in the formof large charts. The group isheaded by Walker L. Cisler, execu-tive vice president of'the DetroitEdison Company. Dan Gerber,president of the Gerber Baby FoodCompany,' Fremont, presided at themeeting. Cisler's group includesrepresentatives of manufacturing,banking, public utilities, organizedlabor, retail business and com-munity groups.

* * *"One of the biggest problems is

keeping Michigan companies inMichigan," said Weeks in pre-senting the charts.

"In recent years and in recentmonths Michigan has sufferedsevere losses.'*

The following information on in-dustries which have moved awayfrom Michigan is taken from theofficial record of the State De-partment of Economic Develop-ment, as presented to the citizens'group:

American Lady Corset Co.,moved from Detroit to Greenville,N. C.

Diamond Power Speciality Co.,moved from Detroit to Lancaster,Ohio.

Ampco Twist Drill moved fromJackson to Greenfield, Mass.

Armour Leather Co., movedfrom Holland to Chicago, III.

Fruehauf Trailer Co., movedfrom Detroit to Avon Lake, Ohio.

Helms ,. Industrial Companymoved from Grand Rapids toBirdsboro, Pa.

Mendor* Company moved fromMendon to Ligonier, Ind.

Koppers Company moved fromReed City to Virginia. *

Lake States Products movedfrom Jaekson to Cleveland, Ohio.. Potts Machine Company moved| from Jackson to Chicago, 111.

Hyde Spring, Lisbon, Ohio, stilloperating in detroit.

* * *» Clayton - Lambert Companymoved from Detroit to Louisville,Ky.

Eureka-Williams Corporationmoved from Detroit to Blooming-

Jton, 111.I Crest Industries moved part ofi their operation to South Carolina.i Heywood-Wakefield moved fromMenominee ot Massachusetts.

Chicago Pneumatic Tool movedfrom Detroit to Utica, New York.

Aluminum Fabricators movedfrom Charlotte to Rome, Georgia.

Precision Parts moved from Ann.Arbor to Geneva, Illinois,j Detrola Company moved from'Detroit to Kentucky.

* * *"Today 21 - other Michigan com-

panies a^e known to be consideringlocations in other states," pointedout Mr. Weeks. "In each knowncase the state department is mak-ing every possible effort to holdthe "company in Michigan."

In reviewing the situation of at-tracting industries to Michigan, itappears that little attenion hasbeen given to the problem ofkeeping industry in Michigan, asillustrated by the above examplesof industries which have migratedto other states.

* * *Why have these industries left

Michigan ?What were the reasons which

prompted manufacturers to closeup their Michigan plants and seekemployment conditions elsewhere?

In view of the state corporationprofits tax, now pending before thestate legislature, it would seemthat answers to these questionsare pertinent to 1950 political is-sues.

Industries mean payrolls; pay-rolls mean purchasing power in thecommunity. It is obvious that theindustrial prosperity of Michiganmust depend to a large degree up-on making Michigan an attractiveplace to work and to live.
