SAFETY TIPS FOB FISHERMEN The drowning Saturday (see from page story) below Lowell's Main Street dam has prompted Lowell Chief of Police to remind fishermen of a few basic safely rules. Number one according to Emmons, is the fact that snagging is illegal, which is contrary to^many rumors that are circulating, bait fishing is allowed however. Fishermen in the dam area are urged to stay off from the dam. all aprons and away from the deep and turbulent wxter there. Fishermen wearing waders should arrange their clothing so that the waders and suspenders arc on the outside of all other clothes so that they can be removed if they should fill with water. Also a quick release belt placed tightly around the outside of the waders at the waist is recommended to keep water out if you should go under. Also, use of a life jacket is highly recommended by Emmons. And as a final reminder, always try to fish with a buddy. OFF THE BLOTTER A vehicle driven by Donald R. Fizer rolled over on Alden Nash near 36th Street Saturday morning at 9:45. Lowell Rescue dispatched to extract Filer pinned in the car. Minor injuries were sus'ained and Fizer was transferred to Blodgett Hospital by Arrow ambulance. Kent County SherifTs Department responded to a call around 10 p.m. Thursday evening involving a two car collision. Leo Ryan Jr. of Lowell, ran a stop sign at Grand River Drive and Alden Nash and hit a vehicle driven by Mark Newubecker of Freeport. Passenger in Ryan auto and Newubecker received minor injuries and were treated and released. Passenger in Newubecker's vehicle received exten- sive injuries. Confused by the detailed tax proposals on this fall's ballot? Well, so arc a lot of other people and a commit- tee of concerned Lowcllites are organizing an open forum that will hopefully serve to better inform area voters on the three tax proposals. A group headed up by Carlen Anderson. Dr. Robert Rea- gn. Dr. Clark Vredenberg, and Wendell Christoff arc planning an informational meeting for Thursday. Octo- ber 30 at the Lowell Middle School from 7:30 to 9 p.m. State Senator Robert Van- dcrLaan has been contacted and either he or someone else will speak on behalf of the tax proposal "C". oth- erwise known as the Legisla- tive-Coalition Proposal. Dan Austin of State Representa- tive Perry Bullard's office will represent Proposal "A" or the so-called Smith-Bui- lard Plan. Nothing has been firmed up as of this writing, but there will definitely be representation for the Tisch Proposal or Proposal "D". Nexf week's Ledger will car- ry more detailed information on the speakers. The tentative format for the meeting cal s for giving each speaker a ten minute period to speak on behalf of their proposal and then open- ing the meeting up to a one hour question and answer session. Those attending are urged to write down their specific questions in advance in hopes that prepared ques- tions will help keep the meeting flowing.

Parade of

Progress An ingenious, highly auto-

motated. walk-through exhi-bition conceived by Am way Corporation employees to highlight the company's 21-year history is being display-ed to visitors at the direct sales firm's world headquar-ters.

Housed in a new building directly behind the Center of Free Enterprise lobby, the Am way Parade of Progress takes visitors from Amway's earliest days in a basement office to its current status as in international concern with over SI billion in annual sales at estimated retail.

The display's highlight is a 40-foot scale model of the 300-acre Ada headquarters complex. As the five-minute narration opens, only a tiny former service station and empty fields appear. Before the show's cycle ends, even building now on ihe complex or planned for it appears in its proper setting with a brief explanation of its function.

This display is additionally illustrated through the use of 2() projectors which fill a huge curving screen behind the display with constant pictorial proof of Amway's astounding growth. An orig-inal soundtrack, created for Amway and performed bv members of the Grand Rap-ids Symphony Orchestra accompanies the display's narrative account.

The Parade of Progress also displays Amway's early products, an electronic map of the globe on which loca-tions of the firm's worldwide facilities appear automatical ly one by one, sections cele-brating achievements of Am-way's more than 500.000 independent d i s t r ibu tors , and a section featuring the company's Nutrilite Products division.

Amway Chairman of the Board Jay VanAndel noted that "as a matter of course in the ever-growing world of Amway. this wide variety of displays still offers plenty of room for additional materi a l ."

The Prade of Progress was created by Amway "to pro-vide distributors and the public with a brief glimpse into this company's past and present, while offering a few hints about its future ," re-ported President Richard De Vos.

Display and Exhibit Com pany of Wayne. Michigan, built the Parade of Progress. That firm, one of the five largest U.S. concerns spe-cializing in exhibits, has designed displays for the New York, Montreal and Seattle World Fairs.

Give, and it shall be given unto you . . . (Luke 6:38).

After Donnie had had his hair cut, the barber handed him a bar of candy. "Here , Donnie." he said, this is for being such a good boy."

Donnie held on to the candy tightly, but he never

once offered to unwrap^it and take a bite. When he and his father reached home, Donnie quickly ran into the house. "Melody, you may have this ," he said, thrusting the bar into sister 's hand. "You didn't get to have your hair cut ."

Donnie's father was touch-ed by his young son't show of affection and unselfishness. He insisted that the boy keep the candy for himself, and he assured Donnie he would go to the store and purchase another candy bar for Mel-ody.

Our Heavenly Father is pleased with us. His chil-dren. when we live unselfish-ly. when we put the comfort and pleasure of others be-fore our own. Not one thoughtful deed escapes His watchful eye. Not one unself-ish act is overlooked nor will go unrewarded. Let us give as He has given unto us—un-selfishly.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, make me magnanimous in spirit. Help me to live unself-ishly. to give unto others as I have received—generously. Amen. Give as you would, if an

R e f l e c t i o n s From Outer Space

By Rev. Jerry Bales

There are t imes that every man needs God. The sad thing is that we do not realize this and live as if we . will never need Him.

This need is pointed out very vividly to me as 1 stand beside the bed of a sick person. During the year 1 make many sick calls, some of the persons that 1 call upon are members of the Church and others are not. it is interesting to notice that always 1 am redeived with a smile and a welcome word. Now 1 know that people are glad to see me. but more than this they recognize that in a way 1 stand for God. And when I call they think of God and that He cares for them.

The same thing is true when death comes into the family circle. Then it is thai God is needed and when a minister calls and talks with the family, he speaks for God. Now God is needed and welcomed into the situation with open arms.

Yes. it is a sad thing that we do not recognize our need of God until the difficult

times of life come to us. The actual fact is that we need God all of the time.

Man was created by God for a specific purpose. This was not to obtain wealth, knowledge or learn to fly to the moon. God created man to fellowship with Him. He placed within each man 9 yearning. A yearning that can not be satisfied in any other way. Some men think that this yearning can be satisfied with money. That is if they earn enough, the yearning will be fulfilled. Others think that satisfaction will come with pleasure or fame or property or alcohol. But the fact is that there is only one way that this yearn-ing can be fulfilled.

This yearning can be ful-filled only as a man has a meaningful relationship to god. This is more than just a speaking acquaintance or be-ing able to say. ' l believe in God." This is a relationship thai we act upon. By action 1 mean, going to Church, sup-porting Kis work. Service to Him and really loving our neighbors. Also should be included a life of prayer, that is personal communication with Him.

Oh, 1 know that some people will scoff at jyhat has been said, but it is true. This yearning needs.to be fulfilled or man is in search for fulfillment, a fulfillment which he can not and will not find in any other way. So . if you read this column and do not have anything to do with God now. why not start out by going to Church, yielding your life to God and for the first time in your life know real happiness, and fulfill-ment.

Saranac Doin'i Morning fire at Herbruck's

An October .13 fire at Herbruck's Poultry Farm at 6425 W. Grand River Drive is e s t i m a t e d at more than $150,000 in damages.

The cause is under investi-gation. but is believed to have started in a shop used for truck repairs. Mechanics had removed a fuel tank from a GMC truck and left for another area of the shop. Upon returning they discov-ered they couldn't open the door from the pressure of the fire. They had not heard any

explosion. Owner Diane Herbmck re-

ports assorted trucks, farm vehicles and shop equipment were stored in the building. No one was injured in the fire. An apartment located in the front of the building was unoccupied at the time.

The farm's 70 employees immediately began removing equipment and fighting the fire while waiting for the fire department to arrive.

The fire was contained to the one building. However, one poultry house got so hot. some of the 50.000 chickens inside might have been lost.

Further complications result-ed when the electricity went off shortly after the call to the fire department was made. Ventilation to the chickens was cut off. which is some-thing they can't be without for more than 45 minutes.

The blaze was spotted as far away as Woodland.

In su rance inves t iga to r s were to come out later that day to examine the loss.

Dear Editor To the person or persons

responsible for the phone call that resulted in the Lowell Youth Football League hav-ing to cancel their dance the night before it was schedul-ed. 1 have a few words to say.

The people that bought tickets will of course get their money back. The parents that spent time on the phone in preparation for the dance have only their time lost. Those of you who were providing the food. 1 am sure you were able to serve it to your own families. The band, well they were kind enough to donate their time and talent to what they must have felt was a good cause, the

league therefore was not out a retainer fee.

It would seem that this personal vendetta you have going was rather pointless and petty to stay the least, with one exception. That exception being some 114 boys that practice two hours a night, three nights a week and play their hearts out every Saturday. The profits from this dance would have gone to help cover expenses for their banquets, so you scored. There, aren't you proud? The little guys will have their banquets; how-ever. may I suggest to you that in the future you pick on someone your own size, but then I guess you did. didn't you?

Michigan ' s 4-H Dairy Judging Term took first place honors at the National 4-H Dairy Judging Contest. Oct. 1 in Madison, Wis.

Members of the winning team are: Jim F^erstenau of Richmond; Diane Henry of Ionia; L iu UWch of Howard City, and Lynn Wilcox of Lowell.

Participants in the Nation-al Dairy Judging Contest ^ judge 10 classes of cattle, including heifer and cow dasscs and five major dairy breeds. The youths are given points for placing animals in each class in the correct order.

Thirty-seven states were represented at the competi-tion. Finishing second and third behind Michigan ' s team were teams from Min-nesoia and Missouri.

"Consistent high scoring was the key to our team's success." sayd Gale Baum-g a r d n e r . MSU* Extension daily science specialist and team coach. "Three of our team members placed in the top 10 highest individuals category, which boosted our tcam'sccrc t remendously."

The four young people were selected to represent Michigan at the national

contest after participating in preliminary judging contests held during 4-H Exploration Days at MSU rnd the Michi-gan State Fair in Detroit.

"Our team represents the best of Michigan's 4-H dairy project members," Baum-gardner says. "They took their judging tasks seriously and were well prepared for the competition. The team members even practiced as we traveled to Wisconsin.

Members of Michigan's winning team received tro-phies and attache cases from the national dairy breeders' associations that sponsored the event. They also received the Mylos Dawnie Memorial Award trophy, which will be displayed in the MSU dairy science department.

Mich hunting

t«aton-en|oy in good health

As thousands of Mkhigan-ians prepare themselves for another hunting season, many will be going to the shooting range to brush up on both their marksmanship and their gun safety proce-dures. And such precautions are indeed justified, because every deer hunting season, several people die in shoot-ing accidcnts.

"Hunting can be very strenuos," said Dr. Bitter. "The average hunter is not used to really exercising ail year. Suddenly he's in a d i f f e r e n t e n v i r o n m e n t , where be'U have to cldnb over hills and around trees; cold wheatber adds to the strain on his system; he may be carrying a gun and other heavy equipment. Add to that the ercitement of the hunt itself, and you're ask-ing for trouble."

Dr. Ritter listed some pre-cautions hunters can take:

Never hunt alone. Know where to get help in

case of emergency. Be sure you are in con-

dttkML Be sure to wear warm

clothing that protects bead, ears, bands and throat. Cold wheatber puts an added strain or the heart.

Know the symptoms of heart attack: a feeling of ful lness, heaviness or squeezing pain in the center of the chest, which may spread to arms, shoulders, neck or jaw and may be accompained by nausea, vo-miting. sweating or short-ness of breath.

If you are on medication for your heart, make sure that all members of your hunting party know where you keep your medication, and how it should be used.

Don't tire yourself exces-sively. Take the hunting, the eating and the celebrating in reasonable doses, and get plenty of rest.

Watch your alcohol intake; though it may make you feel warmer, alcohol causes your body to lose heat faster.

Get help to drag your quarry out of the woods.

Dr. Ritter concluded. "We urge al! hunters to observe these precautions, have good hunt-and don't be one of the casualties." . The Michigan Heart Asso-ciation is a United Way agency.

Stain Out Avai lable

An "at your finger tips" home remedy guide for re-moving all types of stains from ail kinds of washable fabrics is now available from, county MSU Cooperative Extension Service offices throughout Michigan.

The new bulletin, appro-priately titled "Stain Out ", highlights 40 common house-hold stains and stain removal-procedures.

"We designed this bulle-tin to make It easy to use." says Isabel Jones. Exten-sion clothing and textiles specialist at Michigan State University, and author of "Stain Out ." "No more pag-ing through lengthy and cumbersome bulletins to lo-cate the right procedure for a specific stain. Information In "Stain Out" Is listed on five pages in an easy-to-read chart." f i

A stack of firewood by the back door makes h easy to keep the home fires burtdng. Bat It may also harbor to* sects, a f c e and rats.

Stacking firewood against an exterk* wall of your home puts the bisects in a good spot to locate the little cracks around basement windows, the tiny openings in founda-tions or the loose-fitting storm door that can let then into your home. Once inside, they may be only a nuisance. Or they may settle in to do some real damage.

If you must store firewood near the boose, get it up off the ground—at least 18 inch-es—and keep it at arm's length from the exterior wall. Make your woodpile long and narrow—one log wide. Sev-eral short rows laid side by side offer better rodent cov-er.

Because many Insects spend all oc part of their Kves inside wood, you may easily carry some of them Inside when you fill the wood box. Bring in only the wood you'll use in a day or two.

Horse owners should vaccinate for encephalitis '

Because of a severe oat-break of horse sleeping sick-ness in southern Michigan and northeastern U.S. Department of Africul-ture animal health are urging horse and pony owners in those areas. to vaccinate their animals.

According to - - Ralph Knowles. a veterinarian with USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, 35 caaes of eastora eqaioe en-cephalitis have been report-ed in Kalamazoo and St. Joseph counties, Ml., with an additional case in La-grange county, Ind., which is adjacent to the two Michigan counties.

"I t is also important to vaccinate horses and ponies in any area where there are a lot of mosquitos, because the disease is spread by these

insects," Knowles said. "A vaccine is available tfaroagh local veterinarians that pro-tects horses and ponies against three types of sleep-ing sickness, including east-ern, western and Venezuelan equine encephalitis."

Both humans and horses are susceptible to equine encephalitis if bitten by mos-quitoes that previously ob-tained a blood meal from an infected bird, Knowles said. Wild birds are the natural reservoir of eastern and western equine encephalitis.

" C o n c e r n e d o w n e r s should call their local veter-inarian if signs of the disease appear In their horses and p o n i e s . " Knowles said. "Most common signs are depression, lack of appetite and drowsiness—hence the name sleeping sickness.

The Back Page Lowell teams attends arts education institute

W i i m i i y , Oct. 2 2 , ; 9 N . r % o

A team of LoweU t i t s educators, community arts agency leaden, coocerned citizens and public officials are taking part in a three-day conference to improve Michi-gan arts in education pro-grams.

Lowell's Include; Chris VanAntwerp, t e a m leaders . Barbara Urown. King Doyfe. Kathy Kemp. Karen Lambert. Jtan Maatman. Kod Smith and Mary Yost.

The Institute for Compre-hensive Arts Planning is designed to help school dis-tricts make the arts an integ-

part of geecral education in elementary and secondary schools. The Institute is be-ing held on the Eastern

Moravian Parlor Sfove Also availeble as a

Fireplace Insert

Michigan University campus Oct. 16-18.

The local team ia one of 20 •ommunity groups learning how to exarame the quality of arts education programs in schools and how to analyze community arts ttsoorees that might supp lement school programs. The team will start plaaaiag how to initiate an interdisciplinary approach to learning in the school district before leaving the Institute.

A truly comprehensive arts plan includes all the arts, at all grades—from kindergar-ten through high school. Institute officials say. A 1979 Michigan Department of £ d ucation survey showed that half the state 's school dis-tricts do not offer art. drama or dance for elementary school children.

People often ask me where 1 get my ideas for this The answer is obvious; me. and that 's usually a pretty source. Last wt-.* was a perfect example of that stooped to grinding oat an entire column on the su flies. This week may be even worse though, because I think of a darned thing that I nqsht be able to work column. x . 4 x

I've tried going back to some of my favorite sources material, such as life on Ihe home front. Things here been pretty tame except for one little incident when Te left me to make a pan of brownies for her boss on Boss' while she went bowling. That wouldn't have been so except she had to go and tell everybody and now every- ti bump into someone from her office, they have to tell me wl a good cook 1 am.

Another favorite subject of late, has been the especially the litter of pops that! we had. But, they are a now except for one and the piles of puppy residue decreased proportionately to the point where I don't could get another column out of that subject. I really change my ad though, it 's been headed. "Going Fast' about eight straight weeks now. I'm starting to take a ribbing about that. ^

We're coming up on the mid-season point for the N.F.L.,j another lavorite subject, the Lions should be some material for a column, but I'm reserving judgment on for a few more games yet. the only good thing that 1 can about that game with the Bears last Sunday is. "Tiank j ness L was on the road and didn't have to watch it.

As long as we're on the subject of sports, it 's World time and that should be a good source for a column too. trouble with the World Series this year is that both favorites got knocked out in the play-offs. Last year I glued to the TV for every game of that incredible between the Yankees *nd Pirates, and even though Yankees lost, I loved every minute of it. This year. 1 can't l

excited about the aeries, because I can't get excited either the Phillies or Royals. It 's j^st like the darned elcctij 1 can't get excited about Reagan or Carter either.

When I 'm really stuck for material, I can usually count'1

the kids to furnish some subject matter, but even those > little monsters have been pretty low-key lately. We took th out to quite a fancy restaurant in Traverse Chy this weeke and I didn't have to hide under the table once. I should i that to the "That 's Incredible" program on TV.

Well, since I can't think of anything to write a about, we're just going to have to call this mess a column, look to next week for bigger and better things.
