A very enjoyable dancing party was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Mittelholte. yesterday evening. A good crowd as present and all enjoyed themselves heart- ily, "Ringing the farmers" is the latest swindling game in western Michigan. In the first act of this new -style tragedy, a stranger ap- pears on the road near a farm house diligently searching for "a lost diamond ring." As he does not find it, he offers $100 reward for its recovery. He goes away without finding the ring and short- ly afterward a tramp picks up a ring. The farmer who is to be the victim offers the tramp $25 for the ring, expecting to get the $100 re- ward, The tramp hesitates but finally accepts it and leaves. When the farmer cannot find the stranger he grows suspicious and has the jeweler examine the ring. It is generally worth about 15 cents. Born. KENNEL.—At Blake on April • 29th, to Mr. and Mrs. N.

Forecasts For May. The storm diagram shows that a Venus periost of disturbance is cerr- tral on the 4th of May, and that its disturbing power lasts until near the end of the month. This means that all the regular and reaction- ary periods, until after the griddle of the month, will be prolonged and intensified by the Venus in - finance. Without modifying causes un- known to us, the first week in May will . bring many active, if not dangerous. storms. The Vulcan, Mercury and Venus influences all combine to render this a danger period. The Vulcan and Mercury periods are central together on the 3rd and the Venus period is central on the 4th. About the lst to 3rd look for change to very warm, starting in the west and spreading eastward. The barometer will fail to very low readings and from about the 3rd to 6th violent storms will pass eastwardly over most parts of 'the country. This is a time when tornadoes aro very prob- able, snaking it wise to heed all indications of coming storms, and taking such precautionary mea- sures for safety as may be reason- able or practicable. Heavy down- pours of rain and hail, with great electrical displays, will most likely attend these disturbances. Behind these storms, look for high barome- ter, west winds and gales, and sud- den change to very cool. Frosts need not surprise any in all central to northern sections of the country. Reactionary storm conditions will return on the 8th,9th and 10th, bringing a return of high tempera- ture, low barometer, great humid- ity, and more storms of greater or less violence and danger. All through this part of May the solar focus is central along the Middle States, etitending east and west and daily cycles of heavy thunder and rain storms often occur for many successive days, culminating in a wide and sweeping series of storms. Such will probably result at this reactionary period, lasting perhaps into the regular storm period which is central on the 14th. If a sudden high barometer develops behind the rain and thunder storms about the 10th, regions to the northward may look tor frost. About the 14th look for change to warmer, the barometer will again fall to low readings, and an- other series of rain, wind and thunder -storms will take up their eastward march across the country, culminating on and touching the 14th, 15th and 16th. At this as wellras other May periods, if the air is warm and humid, with low and falling barometer, no gathering storm should be allowed to ap- proach without careful watch on the situation. There is no use in trying to conceal the fact that tor- nadic storms are possible and prob able, and a little common sense watching and planning, or the lack of such, will run into matters of life or death in such critical moments. Great and sudden revulsions from warm to unseasonably cool are characteristics of the Venus perturbations, and when these Venus periods fall in the month of May, the widest electrical storms are often followed by surprising changes to cold and frost. More or less of such phenomena will be realized during all the first half of the present month. Make it your business to watch and see if such influences are not apparent during much of the present month. School Report.
