year. Tiuey said, averaged $49,60 per
mile varying from $6 a mile In some
of the southern counties to $300 a
mile in the upper peninsula district
where snowfall is constant during
parts of the season.
Considerable new equipment has
been purchased by the highway department and is in use this winter,
600,000 feet of snow fence being part
of the new material purchased.
Increased use of high-speed truck
plow units, eliminating some of the
work formerly done by heavy tractors, will be the outstanding feature
in snow removal this year, according,
to Mr. Tiney. The high cost "of
tractor units, Tiney declared, made it
advisable to 'use trucks to the limit,
giving' quicker  service at a reduced
fOst.
Highways will be kept in a smooth
condition this year also by the maintenance division, permitting comfort
and safety for winter driving as well I
as during the summer months. Mich-'

fire department was able to extinguish the blaze which had damaged the' house to a considerable extent, and at once began a search for
the origin.
They   discovered  that  a  hole  had
been cut through the lath and plaster of one of the partitions, close to
the baseboard and a quantity of rags
saturated in kerosene had been placed in this opening between the studding, and- a portion of a lady's dress
skirt, also saturated, had been placed
i at the bottom of the opening in such
|a manner that the draft would carry
the flames and rapidly spread them
throughout the partitions and upper
floors  of   the   two   story   structure.
This failed to develop and the firemen found the garment.    Fire Chiei
Wellman  made  investigation  and at
once notifie'd the State Fire Marshalls
office   at  Lansing,   and  M.  A.   Mac-
Kenna,  Deputy  State Fire  Marshall,
of Prascott, was soon on the job, and
with   County     officers,   immediately
took action. In a pocket of the garment was found a slip of paper which
was alleged to be a memorandum of
maple syrup sold by Blystone.
Two girls who lives across the
street from this house told the officers that a man answering to Bly-
stone's description came to the house
on the preceding Saturday, and
when they entered the building out
of curiosity, they saw him cutting a
hole in the wall with an axe.
Working on  these  clews,  and the
theory that Blystone would be    the
only person benefited by the destruction of the building and the collection
of the insurance, the officers brought
him  into  Prosecutor Holbrook's    office, where he admitted having,  employed Himes to set the fire for him.
Himes, who is    about   thirty-eight
years of age and married, and lives
east of Houghton Lake, was arrested
Sunday and confessed to the crime.
He   stated   that   while   visiting   in
Arthur township    last    summer,   he
talked   with  Blystone   about   setting
fire to his house   on   west   Seventh
street, and agreed to do this if Bly-
stone wouitT'sBt everything ready for

early diagnosis of tuberculosis which
is to take place in the spring of 1928
During the summer of 192 S an extensile chest clinic program is planned. These clinics which are financed by the sale of Christmas seals are
to be held in practically all the
counties of Michigan,
In the fall of 1928 the Michigan
Tuberculosis Association hopes to
sponsor ,chlid health education work.
Through child health education work
by means of which children are
taught "health habits, the prevalence
Of tuberculosis is lessened for since
tuberculosis is preventable the
healthy Individual can normally resist
the disease.. '"
It is Christmas seal pennies which'
make' possible the work . against
tuberculosis in Michigah,
Overland factories have   been • mad&
with this present situation in mind.
"The power  plant in the Whippet
is the same one as that which set a
fuel^economy record.of 43.28 miles to.
the gallon of gasoline in a run made
between Los Angeles and New York,
covering 3,559 miles and officially ob-"
served by the A. A, A. and which set
a speed record of 71,6 uniles an hour
for  50  miles,  officially observed    on •
the  Rockingham Park speedway    at
Salem, New Hampshire.
"With this price move the Whippet
definitely steps into a comparative
price position in the low-priced field*'.
It enters the position with all plants'
ready to go into maximum production-
and with the largest manufacturing
schedule in the history of the _ company in full swing.
The perfected Whippet will soon he"
on display at Thompson & Wilkinson's, local distributors, and they invite public inspection. Watch* for
their announcement in other columns,
of the Sentinel in the near, future.
