Foreign Representative: Carpentier & Company, 122 Michigan Mayor Krick's Message — ■ At the first meeting of the new city councilJast evening. Mayor Krick delivered his message, recognizing the excellent record of the past administration and urging a continued march of progress that “this mighty good city," may continue a healthy and prosperous growth. He specifically recommends: That as soon as the 3,000 kilowat turbine is installed nt the city plant, engineers may be obtained from Purdue to ascertain exact efficiency and as low a power and light rate as possible. Extension of water mains and a larger pump. Additional fire equipment and an ordinance providing for safe construction of chimneys, which cause onethird of the fires. Continuation of the ornamental light system. Clean streets, new method of transporting rubbish, establishment of more through traffic streets with s'gnals at dangerous corners. That the city engineer at once prepare a map showing all sowers and connections that the committee may have a complete record and may use this as a basis for improving the sewerage system wherever possible. The mayor has touched the most important spots and of course advised the council to remember that the imi provements have to be made in the most economical manner and always . i witli the idea of not stepping over the financial limits commensurate with good management. This is, as Mr. Krick stated, "a mighty good city" and is getting better. for the factories are operating, every one is busy, conditions arc excellent. Te new administration starts off with the right ideals and we are sure they will have the support of all the people of the city, that they may accomplish till these tilings and all others which arise from time to time, for the benefit of all the people. The various departments of the city will continue Io operate under practically the same superintendeucies, th records made by the various men in charge, recommending them for continuation of service. M. .1. Mylolt, who has served at the electric plant for many years and Orval Ilarruff, with tile water department, were belli reelected last night and will continue to have charge of these two important Andrew Foos will act as chief at Hie city plant and .1. Fred Fruchte will continue as city attorney. All of these men know their duties and have demonstrated their desires to serve all the people to the greatest advantage, which is the important tiling. In addition to these appointments. Amos Fish r will serve you as street commissioner and Sephtts Melchi as chief of police. The organization in a good one and the iidministration i.tart.; with every indication of success. The county commissioners yesterday reappointed A. .1.

ed today, Men boast of the burdens they’ve borne on the way. And the fears which this morning fill you with dismay You will laugh at the moment you rout them. There's none of us fret from the whiplash of •are. The gladdest of hearts has been stung by despair. But all come to beauty some time and some where. So don't dwell too long in your sorrow ; He brave and be strong as you stand to the test, By the. burdens you've borne you will see you were blest. All the hardships endured will seem sweet, as you rest And you come to that brighter tome rrow. Edgar A. duest

Minister Says World Is I Speeding Toward Decay Chicago, Jan. 6. — (United Pres:.) • Dances are now but semblances of savage orgies, the accompanying music is as mtfch "the syncopated ‘hiccup’ of an 'inebriated cannibal" as anything else and the world is speeding toward decay and race suicide, the Rev" C. Copeland Smith, declared in an address last night, on the Bible. Dr. Smith assailed thv> policies of the last ten years which have allowed the world to "retrogress/’ and blamed the clergy for much of the condition, he said, is existing. “In ten years,’’ he said, "we have gone so far backward that in addition to. music and the dance, the legitimate drama molds what remaining popularity it possess only by an increasing sex appeal and increasing maudlin method of dealing with the problems of our times. The silent drama even goes to further lengths. “Ah to legistimatc art, Beethoven is as dead as Queene Anne and even Wagner is fast ioaing his prestige. "In the world of morals there is - naturally an accompanying decline. There has taken place In the la J ten i years, an alarming shrinkage in attendance of protestant places of wor- ; chip. And the clergy in almost solely ■ responsible (or this condition both in ■ the church and in the world." Dr. Smith declared that the miu4:;ter; are ignorant concerning the formatious I of faith and morality. •| “Me never had so well educated a - ministry as now, nor a m nistr.v so.lg- > uorant of the Bible, which is less un ; dersteod now than at any time since Wycliffe,” he said.

Staff Correspondent > Hong Kong, Jan. 6- — United Press) —Three hundred bandits today, by a daring trick, perpet rated the biggest. silk robbery irt- the history of South China, when they raided Yungkee City and took $1,000,000 worth of silk.

Y., Jan. 6. —The aci tual material output of the General ‘ Electric Company for the year 1925 i was greater than any previous year, ’• John Liston announces in his annual . review of the company made public to- ■ • day. This does not mean a record i year in total value of sales, although ! this year's figures are slightly above ' those of a year ago, but indicates the |extent of price reductions which have been put into effect since 11*20. The volume of production of all classes of apparatus hds been main-, 'tabled at a fairly uniform rate throughout the year, Mr. Liston states. Steam turbines of exceptional capac ity were condtructetl; and high steam pressures and superheating were more ■generally adopted. Certain classes of 'transformers were also carr i d to new high-uuit ratings with correspondin': increases in their switching equipment. ;i In transportation, there was a fur-' ther adoption of the ciononiicul oil 1 electric locomotive; a record-breaking cross continental run by an oil electric I ! car; and an increased use <,l gu cl- ctric buses for feeder servit ■ io rail--1 ways. Efforts were continued to re- . duce the weight of city and suburban railway cars; and the development of r a practically noiseless tar of this ty;ie I was undertaken. j The automatic control principle was 1 utilized for larger machines in power plants and substations; and its use 1 was further extended in railway, t-i n- . ’ng. and industrial power systems.
