The collective marketing plan, ~che main inspiration of the beet growrs' organization, is abandoned so far as the bureau is concerned.

@- 1 DEATHS OF THE WEEK.. I

Mrs. Catherine McArthur. On Wednesday, Dec. 22, the people

of Novesta were again saddened by i the death of Catherine McArthur who i suffered a para lyt ic stroke on Sun- day evening.

i Her death came as a grea t shock to her many fr iends as she had been

,enjoying the very best of health, and on Sunday met with her Sunday school class which she has t augh t for fifteen years. The y o u n g people loved

i her and will remember her a lways as one Who tr ied to live wor thy of the position she held.

Her life was one o f love and chari- ]ty, adminis ter ing always to those less for tunate than she. All this she lid in a quiet, unassuming manner. She was a friend to every one and she loved her neighbor as herself• To know her was but to love her.

Catherine McLar ty was born in E l ' gin county, Ontario, on Dec. 14, 1849. She came with her parents to Michi- gan in the spring of 1877, and t augh t in the public schools of Novesta. On Oct. 28, 1880, she was united in mar-

' ra ige to James D. McArthur of this iplace and has since lived" on their f a rm 3½ miles south of Cass C i t y .

:Less than a year ago she was called ~to mourn the loss of a loving husband but it is a cheering thought t ha t they

i are re-united now where they will be ,parted no m o r e ,

She is survived by five children, all t of whom were with her dur ing her brief il lness: Lorn D. McArthur of

f Durand, Mrs. H. F. Hit t le of ,Manis- t e e , Mrs. J. H. Holcomb, Sarah and Alta a t home. Besides her children, she leaves to ~ mourn her loss f ive

EQUALITY American w o m e n recently enjoyed, for the first time, the privilege of voting on a national scale. The dream that has inspired w o m a n h o o d through the ages has been fulfilled.

The Grange conferred this equality upon w o m a n h a l f a c e n t u r y ago. It was the first great national body to grant w o m e n the same rights and responsi- bilities as men. Much of its success has been due to the heed it has given to the deep sympathies , the clear understanding and the instinctive justice of women.
