Mrs. Scriver Has Watched Cass City Grow
from Indian Settlement to Present Size
The distinction of being the first
white baby to live in what is now
the village of Cass City belongs to
Mrs. John Scriver, 83, who came
here with her parents when she was
six months old.
Mrs. Scriver says that her playmates for many years were Indian
children and she remembers well
when her mother took her to visit
the first new-born white baby in
ithis community.
Rosa Seeger was born in Lancaster, New York, on April 28,
1858, and the following October
came with her parents to this part
of the Thumb district. Mrs. Scriver says: "Of course this was all
dense woods and my father had to
clear a spot ,to build our home."
Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. C.
Seeger, carried all of their belongings from Vassar to Cass City on
their backs.
Mrs. Scriver plainly recalls the
days of hardships and worry that
followed the death of her father in
1872, when he was accidentally shot
by a friend while hunting. He was

T WAS no time to duck or dodge the facts.
So we didn't try.
Instead we said—these being the materials
critical in the defense program, we'll do our
planning for 1942 with that foremost in mind.
Now we're announcing those 1942 cars.
Why waste words telling you how good they
are! You can't put language in the gas tank
and learn either how many or how enjoyable
are the miles you'll get per gallon.
Not merely for an "acceptable" car—certainly not for any "ersatz" number.
1 here's a better answer—you drive these
cars themselves. Come on, do that! Put your
own yardstick on their quality.
We had to have a real and representative
Buick. One we could be proud of. One able
enough, active enough, durable enough to serve
till annual new models are the rule again.
It would be a shame, for you and for us, to
have you miss the dreadnaught Buick we've
built to stand up successfully to the toughest
job in years.
We resolved on a 1942 automobile of such
merit as could carry the Buick reputation
without fault until other new Buicks, however
far off, could come along to refresh it.
No other car has

et had full sleeves caught into a
tight cuff of lace. The fingertip
veil, belonging to the bride's great
aunt, Mrs. Lyman P. Powell, of
Mountain Lakes, N. J., completed
the wedding costume with a modesty veil which fell over a pointed
coronet of rose point lace. She
carried a prayer book and bouquet
of gardenias.
The bridesmaids' dresses were
made alike of taffeta, floor-length,
with heart-shaped necklines, pointed yokes and cuffs, and bouffant
skirts. The color of the dresses
and veils were a dusty pink and
their flowers a dark red. The
dress of the matron of honor was
dark red with a matching veil over
her head secured by a knot of
flowers like her bouquet of deep
pumpkin daisy chrysanthemums.
All three wore pearls, gifts from
the bride.
Mrs. Hastings wore a draped
dress of pink wool and a corsage
of gardenias, and Mrs. Powell an
afternoon dress of soft blue-green
wool and a gardenia corsage.
A bridal dinner was served for
members of the two families and
close friends.
Miss Powell attended Washington University and graduated from
the University of Wisconsin where
she was a member of Alpha Xi
Delta. After receiving her master's degree at Wisconsin, she did
graduate work at Julliard Institute
of Music in New York and the
American Conservatory in Fontainebleau, France. For the past
two years, she has taught piano
and .theory at Sullins College, Bristol, Virginia.

Never an Auto Death
Some sort of safety record is
claimed by Italy, town of 1,300 population in Ellis county, Texas. Ita|y
has never had a death within its
city limits caused by an automobile
accident. Furthermore, no murder
has ever been committed among the

organized 65 years ago.
8,000 Quit Homes to
Make Room for Mill
Evacuate Half of Town for
Defense Plant.
HOMESTEAD, PA. — A mass
evacuation movement, involving almost half the population of this industrial community of 19,000, is under way to make room for a huge
$75,000,000 extension of the local
mills of the Carnegie-Illinois Steel
corporation, made necessary by expanding defense requirements.
An estimated 8,000 people, now
living in the area that will be razed
to build the steel plant addition must
find new homes in the near future,
when the 1,363 buildings in the affected section will be torn down.
The extension was e approved by
Director William S. Knudsen of the
Office of Production Management.
It will be built in response to navy
department requests for construction of an armor forging and machine plant, a new open hearth plant
and a new slabbing and wide plate
mill, for which the property must
be purchased and railroad tracks
relocated.
Almost a complete community in
itself, the area to be razed includes
the following buildings, aside from
private dwellings.
Eleven churches, two convents,
five schools, five clubs, 68 groceries,
46 shops,- 28 saloons, three garages,
two drugstores, two service stations,
two cleaning establishments, two
junkyards, a planing mill, waterworks, knife factory, machine shop
and a baking company.
Many of the 2,000 families that are
being forced from the district include employees of the CarnegieIllmois mills. They must all find
new living quarters despite a housing shortage and despite the fact that
many have lived in the affected area
almost all their lives.
Supai Indians Living
Frugally in 'Shangri-La*
GRAND CANYON, ARIZ. — An
actual "Shangri-La" is located in a
remote and inaccessible branch of
the Grand Canyon on the Colorado.
According to J. % Hoover, professor at the Arizona State Teachers'
college at Tempe, more than 200
members of the Supai Indian tribe
of Arizona live in this hideaway, and
their only contact with the outside
world is by the postman's weekly
trip over the 30-mile trail.
"Situated in Havasu canyon and
oasis, it is surrounded by towering
and unbreakable walls of rock,"
Hoover said. "Descent is hazardous
by a trail cut in the rocks.
"It is quite remarkable that this
American Eden which actually is
within the confines of Grand Canyon
National park, has not become a
mecca for tourists," he said. "Actually it is virtually untouched and unknown."
Hoover pointed out that the 20CE
inhabitants live happily oa an annual income of $6,635. This means
that the average inhabitant gets
along on $35 a year, he added.
"When a visitor arrives," Hoover
said, "he hears the voices of children echoing and is overwhelmed
by a feeling of being in a world
apart."

Plan to Tear Up Street
Rails for Scrap Iron
WASHINGTON. — The abandoned
street car tracks in scores of cities
probably will be torn up soon to
provide scrap iron and steel for the
armament program.
Ralph Budd, defense transportation commissioner, said that a plan
is being considered for the WPA to
help provide funds for removing the
rails and making necessary repairs
to streets. A survey has indicated
that more than 232,000 tons of scrap
are imbedded in city streets.
At the same time, defense officials called on the railroads to remove all sidings, branch lines and
industrial tracks where they are not

Sandusky Defeated.
A touchdown in the first quarter
by Kloc and two in the second
quarter by Strickland proved to Be
enough for the Maroon and Grey
to take their third consecutive victory Friday; at Sandusky's expense.
A heavy Sandusky team put up
a stubborn resistance to the local
running attack, but the locals were
out-blocking and running for a victory .and couldn't be stopped until
after they had piled up three
touchdowns. Root converted two
out of three points after touchdown.
Sandusky's score came in the
fourth quarter as they hammered
their way down into scoring territory when Kenny took the ball off

Hearing Helps
to
Psychologists Test Ability
Of the Sightless to
Avoid Obstacles.
ITHACA, N. Y.—Cornell psychologists announce that they have found
the solution of what constitutes the
so-called "sixth sense" in the blind
which enables them to avoid obstacles. The blind avoid obstacles
through the sense of hearing, according to the psychologists.
It is believed that the discovery
will not only bring hope and confidence to the newly blind, but also
will provide techniques for those who
have been blind for many years and
enable them to obtain a freedom of
movement now denied them. The
Cornell findings are said by the scientists to have implications also for
persons moving about during blackouts, which already have resulted in
many accidents in England. As a
result of the new findings, those
blinded by accidents, or by war,
need not resign themselves to utter
dependence upon their sighted neighbors, the psychologists say.
The reported solution of the problem resulted from the collaboration
of a two-man team, one of whom is
blind, working under the direction of
Dr. Karl M. Dallenbach, professor
of psychology at Cornell. The workers are Michael Supa, blind graduate student from Binghamton, a
graduate of Colgate in 1940, and Milton Cotzin, graduate assistant, a native of Worcester, Mass., A. B. Clark
university in 1938 and M. A., University of Nebraska, 1939.
A Puzzle for Centuries.
The peculiar ability of the blind
to avoid obstacles has baffled mankind for centuries. Casual observers and amateur experimenters
have been responsible for highly
fanciful explanations of a "power"
supposedly possessed only by the
blind themselves.
Many vague descriptive terms
were used to label this special ability—terms ranging from "facial vision," "warning sense" and "distance sense" to, "telesthesia," "paroptic vision" and the so-called "sixth
sense of the blind." The halo of mysticism and supernaturalness attending this ability of the blind is undoubtedly due to the misunderstanding created by the term "sixth
sense," according to the experimenters.
In a series of carefully controlled
experiments consisting of more than
1,500 trials, the three psychologists
used four subjects, two totally blind
and two with hdrttial vision. The
latter believed beforehand that they
would be incapable of perceiving
the presence of objects without vision. But, from the very outset,
these subjects, who were now completely blindfolded, were able to detect the presence of an artificial wall
which was placed in their path.
Test Subjects' Reactions.
Throughout the series the subjects
were asked to state how they
thought it was possible for them to
distinguish the presence of the obstacle. At first, none was able to
give a definite reason but said that
they "just knew it was there." Then,
some thought that sounds aided in
their determinations. The others
said that an indefinite pressure experience on the forehead served as
their cue. Tests were now devised
to determine objectively which of
these subjective- reports was correct
A mask of heavy felt was constructed so as to cover the entire
head and face without touching any
parts of the face or forehead. This
eliminated the possibility of any
sources of stimulation of pressure
upon the covered parts. Despite
this heavy veil, hearing was not impeded. As in the preceding series,
all subjects were able to detect the
pressure of the wall.
Women Increase Lead
Over Men in Big Cities
WASHINGTON. — Women's predominance in the population of the
big cities is growing, according to
a report from the census bureau.
They outnumber males in 26 of the
92 cities of more than 100,000 population, 13 more than in 1930.
Atlanta had the largest proportion
of females, there being only 84,9
males counted there for each 100 females. Richmond Borough in NeW
York city was at the other extreme,
109.3 to 100.
For the country as a whole the
excess of males over females, which
has continued thrbughout the nation's life, reached its peak in 1910,
but has since been dropping at the
rate of about 100,006 a year and last
year amounted to only 697,051. Women outnumbered men in Atlantic seaboard states, but men were found to
be more numerous in the Middle
West, Southwest, Rocky Mountain,
states and on the Pacific coast

BEAULEY,
Premature Fruit Dropping
Greatly Reduced. *
By W. H. THIES
(Extension Horticulturist, Massachusetts
State College.}
Apple growers who have lost fruit
in previous years by premature
dropping made their fruit "stick to
the trees" by using the new hormone
sprays available for the first time
this year.
Correct timing of the spray is very
important, as its effectiveness is
usually not more than from two to
three'weeks. Tests on Mclntosh
show that the spray" loses its effectiveness after 8 to 10 days. With
long-stemmed varieties such as Williams, Rome Beauty, or Delicious,
good control of dropping is obtained
for three to four weeks following the
spray.
Because of the relatively .brief
period of effectiveness .it is important that application be delayed as
long as possible, preferably being
made just prior to dropping or soon
after its beginning, in order to have
the effect when needed most. The
material takes effect within one to
two days after application.
In the experimental work at the
federal horticultural station, Beltsville, Md., pure hormones were
used. The amount needed is almost
unbelievably small. A concentration of 10 parts per 1,000,000 (one
ounce to 700 gallons) in water was
given effective control. A stronger
spray is liable to make the fruit
stick to the tree so tightly that fruit
cannot be pulled off without becoming damaged.
Early Mclntosh and Red Duchess
apples sprayed at the period of
ripening and picked from 12 to
20 days after spraying dropped an
average of only 19 per cent of their
fruit, as compared with a drop of
70.9 per cent of the fruit on unsprayed trees. Other tests on
summer and fall apples gave equally conclusive evidence of the ability
of the spray to hold fruit <m the trees.
So far, no injury to tfree, fruit, or
foliage has been observed when hormone sprays have been used. The
only effect on the fruit is to delaydropping, thus giving time for better
color development and some im«
provement in size.
Though this spray greatly reduces
fruit drop, it does not stop the normal ripening of fruit on the tree.
Thus, caution must be used not to
delay picking beyond proper maturity, or the fruit may become too
ripe on the tree for good handling
and storage quality. Such troubles
as water core and physiological
breakdown in storage are liable to
be serious in over-mature fruit.
The two chemicals that have
proved outstandingly effective in
preventing the premature dropping
of apples are known as napthaleneacetic acid and naphthaleneacetoamide.
Clean Tractor Radiator
Before Putting It Away
Before putting the tractor away
for the winter, it is advisable to
clean out the radiator thoroughly
with a strong solution pf washing
soda.
Fill the-radiator half full of rain
water. Take an equal quantity ot
the water, heat to boiling and add
all the washing soda it will dissolve.
Pour this hot saturated solution into
the radiator and run the engine for
10 to 20 hours at regular farm work.
Then drain out completely, flush
with clean water and refill as usual.
This yearly treatment helps to prevent scale from forming in the cooling system.
Scale that already is present can
be removed by making a weak acid
solution consisting of one part of
hydrochloric acid and seven parts
of rain water. Allow this solution to
stand in the radiator for 36 hours
without running the tractor. Then
drain and refill with clean water
and two or three handfuls of washing soda. Run the engine for five or
ten minutes, again drain, and fill
with clean water. The soda treatment neutralizes any acid that may
be left in the system.

DOES THE WASHING
At best, washday on the farm isn't exactly a holiday. But for Mrs. John
Heckman, Macomb County, it isn't all drudgery, either.
These four electric servants take much of the work of washday off
her hands:
1. Running water—pumped electrically. No tiresome pumping or
heavy carrying.
2. Hot water—plenty of it without waiting—supplied automatically
Ly a 110-gallon electric water heater.
3. A fully automatic "Home Laundry" which does practically everything but hang up the clothes—soaking, washing, rinsing and damp
drying without attention.
4. An electric ironer which makes ironing an easy, sit-down operation.
These four big helpers use only about 20c worth of electricity in doing the
complete laundry, including ironing, for the Heckman family. Any woma.n
will tell you that's a pretty good bargain.

HEALTH ROUND-UP
ALSO FOR ADULTS
To lessen the chance of acquiring
diseases from other children and to
find and if possible correct any defects, progressive
towns and counties
have started the
"Pre-School Round"Up," " S u m m e r
Round-Up," and
school health programs. However,
the health of children is in danger

daily to parents,
teachers and other adults who may
have tuberculosis or some other
chronic infectious diseases or are
carriers of disease.
It is imperative, therefore, that
campaigns be started for a general
"Health Round-Up" of adults. It
has been definitely shown that periodic health examinations of adults
improve the health and increase the
efficiency of those examined and
elevate the standards of health of the
community.
Many state and county medical
societies, public health departments,
women's clubs, and parent-teachers
associations have made "Pre-School
Round-Ups" their most important
undertaking.
It is only natural that parents are
interested in doing everything in
their power to keep their children
well. They now know that proper
prenatal care is the best way in
which to insure a healthy baby and
are learning that regular medical
supervision during the first years of
life is necessary to its normal
healthy development.
The medical profession is convinced that the periodic health inventories should be made by the
family doctor. He knows the ancestry, environment and economic situation of the family and its social
problems, may even have cared for
one or both of the parents since their
birth which he may also have attended. He has cared for the child
since its birth both in health and
disease and is the one who should

his welcome and at the end of a

of a sure way, he hoped, to get rid
of him.
"Don't you think your wife and
family must be lonesome when separated so long from you?" he inquired of the unwanted visitor.
"It had not occurred to me," said
the latter, springing to his feet,
"thanks for reminding me. I'll use
your telephone at once and ask them
to drive down and join me here."
Not Dumb
"I don't suppose you keep anything so civilized as dog biscuits.in
this rundown, one-horse, jay town,
do you?" snarled the tourist.
"Oh! yes, stranger," the village
merchant
responded pleasantly
"Quite a few city folks come through
here and we aim to have anything
they want. Will you have 'em in a
bag to take out, or would you like to
eat 'em here?"
SUGGESTION
"What's the best way to get engaged here?"
"Stay as much under water as
possible."

Dated
Mrs. King was discussing the latest fashions with a caller.
"Did you say your husband was
fond of those clinging gowns,
Mary?"
"Yes. He likes one to cling to me
for about three years."
True Enough
A lady asked the astronomer if
the moon was inhabited.
"Madam," he replied, "I know of
one moon in which there is always
a man and a woman."
"Which is that?"
"The honeymoon."
Hm-m
"Are you unmarried?" inquired
the census taker.
"Oh, dear, no," answered the little lady, blushing to the roots of
her hair. "I've never even been married."
