Michigan trunk line highways which
in the past dlecade have advanced from
gravel to pavement are taking anoth-
er step) forward and are becoming
lighted paths, figures compiled by the
Michigan Public Utility Information
bureau show. The statg now has a
total of 375 miles of such highways.
The bulk of the present highway
lighting is concentrated in the so-
called Detroit area, Wayne, McComb,
and Oakland counties. There are
however stretches scattered through-
out the state, the bureau reports.
One of the latest installations runs
south from Grand Rapids on the di-
vision road, US-131, a distance of two
and one-half miles from the city
limits to Kellogsville. The Consum-
ers Power company furnishes the
lights and the two townships of Wy-
oming and Paris in Kent county pay
the bills. Fifty-eight lamps of 300
watt capacity are used, 23 lamps to
fthe mile.b
Arthur W. Stace, director of the in-
formation bureau predicts that within
the next ten years highways all over
the state will be lighted and that
travel will be as 'safe at midnight as
at noon.

which was popular in many cities
the East. Danceland in Cleveland
Roseland ballroom in New York
are places where the band has ap-
ired.

Because most of the 487 miles
of highways in Madeira Island are
either to steep or too narrow, only
85 miles are available for antomobile
traffic.

If YOU have not given-
The Salvation Army mortgage burning campaign after a little
over two weeks campaigning is still .short $11,00a of it's goal.
Up to this point the campaign has gone well. Hundreds of givers
have responded promptly and generously and the Salvation Army and
the Advisory Board are grateful to them. But we have not heard
from a large number of Ann Arbor citizens who, no doubt, would like
to help but who have not had the opportunity. Their pledges are
essential to success. Without them we cannot win-and to fail the
Army in their emergency would be a reflection on our City.
We must not fail-and with your help we shall not. For your
convenience a pledge card is printed below. Fill it out and mail it
to campaign headquarters at the Salvation Army Citadel or call
phone number 8353 and a solicitor will be sent to pick it up.
Won't you do this-PLEASE, for an organization that ha-s helped
ethers willingly and faithfully for the past thirty years and who now
need OUR help. Let's give it-Generously.

Dobbs Hats

1928

The consciousness of being well dressed comes
to you with the wearing of the DOBBS HAT.
It's astonishing what effect the right hat on the
outside of the head has on the feelings inside.
There is a comfortable satisfaction on all sides.
