WORK TO START ON
N. RID6E TOMORROW
To the Editor of the Amherst News
Times,
Dear Sir: \
Will you allow a little of your valuable space to the Stonecutters of Amherst to express their views on the
proposed Soldiers' and Sailor's Memorial? The Memorial committee has
brought forward two propoeltlons, a
Park or a Community House.
They are considering the purchase
of the Redington block for a Community House. Let us consider what benefit the Redington block would do to
the people of Amherst. In the summer time no one wants to sit In a
hall unless they have to and what
pleasure and freedom is there inside
a hall for the kiddles at any time?
None. The only time they are happy
Inside Is when they are watching Fatty Arbuckle or Bill Hart and they can
aee them for less than $30,000 at any
time. It Imijht be of aome service
during the winter months for social
gatherings, dances, etc., but we can
have the use of It now for all such
purposes, so why spend $30,000 for
something we already have? Surely
there are halls enough ln Amherst
now to supply the wants of all. We
understand one of the reasons the
committee gave for favoring the purchase of this property is that there
would be no expeuse to the people
of Amherst for Its upkeep, us they
figured it would bring ln an Income
of $2,000 a year for rents, etc.
That may sound all right from a business point of view, but this isn't a
business proposition, this Is a memorial to those boys who gave their
all to make the world a better place
to live In and surely we can show our
respect and gratitude for the sacrifice they made without looking at the
profit to be derived from It.
Aa for the building itself, it may be
all right for the purpose for which it
wus built and for which it is being
used. We believe it Is a nice building for business and commercial purposes, but as a memorial building we
think it falls far short of what such
a building should be architecturally
and otherwise. If we must have a
building let us have one that will
take the eye, not a mese pile of bricks
and mortar, but rathe-la building that
will be a credit to A§herst, a building that we can look at with pride
and feel that when we started ont to
do honor to thoae who fell that we
didn't fall down on the Job. If such
a building la beyond our reach an.'
it may be in these days when you
don't get much for something let alone
for nothing, then let ua consider the
other proposition, namely, a Park.
Is there anything that Amherst stands
more ln need of today than a Park?
Did somebody say a achool? Yes, we
need that bad enough and we are
going to get It soon, but who can say
when we will get a Park If we let
thla opportunity slip. That Is for the
people of Amherst to decide. We think
the time la right now. The committee
haa an option on an Ideal place now,
one of the beauty spots of Amherst
A few years from now they probably
could not get it for twice the price
they can have it for now—$11,000
A few dollars more would transform
it into a Park second to none, a place
where we could get out into Qod's
fresh air ln the hot summer days, a
place where we can take the little
ones and know they are out of barms
way. Do you realize that today there
la no place In Amherst where the
kids can play ball, no place but the
atreet and they can't play there, aak
BUI Miller. We can have a fine diamond, tennis courts, a football Held,
etc. In this park. There Is also plenty
of water so that with a little expense
we can have a swimming pool for thi'
kids and ln the winter this same pool
will make a safe place for skating.
There was no Fourth of July celebration ln Amherst this year, the reason being given that so many people
leave town and go to other towns or
to the lake ou that day. But what
else la there for them to do? There
Is no place ip town where they can
go and have a day's pleasure along
with heir children and their friends.
Let us. have a Park of our own to
go to and we wonjt have to leave
town and pay toll to the street car
company or anyone else. There may
not be any financial return from such
a Park but the pleasure to be gained
from it will be return enough for most
people, and remember, the object ln
view Is a Memorial not a moneymaker. It la understood that he Legion is Btrongly ln favor of a hall aa
it wants a place "fSat it can, practically speaking, call Us own.
Very well, but wouldn't a place less
ban the Redington do? Couldn't a
little place be built somewhere within
this park for a few thousand dollars
that would serve as club rooms for
the Legion?
Come away, Legion, you did your
bit ln the past and we think you huve
a splendid opportunity again to do
something for your home town. Help
ua to get a place where everybody,
both young and old can enjoy themselves, a place that won't deteriorate
but will Improve with age, and a place
that will be a real memorial to those
who fell.
At their last meeting the Stone-
PERMANENT ROAD TO RE BUILT
ON AMHERST END OP N.
RIDQE ROAD.
The Amherst Township Trustees
report that work will start on the
North Ridge road Friday of this week
to repair the Amherst end of that
road and make what might be called
:i permanent Improvement by leveling
the road and binding it together with
tar over which will be put an usphalt
top.
The County Commissioners are cooperating wtth the township trustees
In this improvement and have agreed
to place the road under the regular
parol system of the county as soon as
Is it Mulshed in order to keep It In
first class repair. This will Insure
a permanent road Indefinitely and will
surely be appreciated by Ihe people
of this vitiligo and surrounding community.
Henry Brandt states that work will
be started Friday and that muterlal
will be on hand so the Job can be
finished In good time, hence the use
of the road will not be delayed long.
During the building of this roud it
will be necessary for traffic to detour.
It Is likely that most drivers will prefer to tuke the lake road ln going to
Lorain and those going to Klyria will
have no trouble tn avoiding this little
piece of road on their way us there
are about three different ways to go
there on Improved roads.
WHAT A FORD
WORKER CAN 00
OR, A DAY'S POSSIBILITIES
THE FORD FACTORY AT
DETROIT.
"THE mm Mil THE FliES"
■SB*
Henrietta
If this Ford man which we will follow through his day's activities at the
Ford factory has been frugal, as many
of them have, he will arrive at work
ln a Ford car. During his morning's
work he may be stricken with toothache or headache whereupon .he will
visit the Ford doctor or dentist for
relief. At noon, he Is served with u
lunch consisting of sandwiches, fruit,
hot coffee or soup and after that may
see a Ford safety film.
Now supposing that this is the man's
pay day. After subtracting living expenses, he may deposit the remainder
toward a Ford Investment certificate.
Finished with the day's work, he can
go to the shoe store for shoes for himself or son who is in school; or to
the grocery store where, among other
things, he can buy a sack of flour made
from wheat grown on Henry Ford's
farm- where Fordosn tractors do the
work—und ground ln Henry Ford's
flour mill, und then hauled by Ford
trucks to the Ford store where It Is
sold to Ford men; or he may want to
order a custom-made suit, or buy one
reudy made which he does in the Ford
clothes shop. Maybe, a toothbrush Is
all he needs, but he gets it ut a Ford
store. Then he can purchase his meat
In the Ford market. Or order his
winter's supply of coke from the coke
department. Everything la sold at
cost to Ford men.
If this Ford mun wants to rent a
house, he goes to the Ford rental exchange; legal advise is given him by
the legal department. But possibly
he Is a student ln the Ford school;
in that case he attends cluss after
work. And stops in the Ford library
on his wuy out.
Then he may go to tho Ford Athletic field for u set of tennis or for
baseball practice. Possibly he desires to take his family to the Ford
band conert that evening; ho procures
tickets before driving home In his
Ford cur*.

RID6E TOMORROW To the Editor of the Amherst News Times, Dear Sir: \ Will you allow a little of your valuable space to the Stonecutters of Amherst to express their views on the proposed Soldiers' and Sailor's Memorial? The Memorial committee has brought forward two propoeltlons, a Park or a Community House. They are considering the purchase of the Redington block for a Community House. Let us consider what benefit the Redington block would do to the people of Amherst. In the summer time no one wants to sit In a hall unless they have to and what pleasure and freedom is there inside a hall for the kiddles at any time? None. The only time they are happy Inside Is when they are watching Fatty Arbuckle or Bill Hart and they can aee them for less than $30,000 at any time. It Imijht be of aome service during the winter months for social gatherings, dances, etc., but we can have the use of It now for all such purposes, so why spend $30,000 for something we already have? Surely there are halls enough ln Amherst now to supply the wants of all. We understand one of the reasons the committee gave for favoring the purchase of this property is that there would be no expeuse to the people of Amherst for Its upkeep, us they figured it would bring ln an Income of $2,000 a year for rents, etc. That may sound all right from a business point of view, but this isn't a business proposition, this Is a memorial to those boys who gave their all to make the world a better place to live In and surely we can show our respect and gratitude for the sacrifice they made without looking at the profit to be derived from It. Aa for the building itself, it may be all right for the purpose for which it wus built and for which it is being used. We believe it Is a nice building for business and commercial purposes, but as a memorial building we think it falls far short of what such a building should be architecturally and otherwise. If we must have a building let us have one that will take the eye, not a mese pile of bricks and mortar, but rathe-la building that will be a credit to A§herst, a building that we can look at with pride and feel that when we started ont to do honor to thoae who fell that we didn't fall down on the Job. If such a building la beyond our reach an.' it may be in these days when you don't get much for something let alone for nothing, then let ua consider the other proposition, namely, a Park. Is there anything that Amherst stands more ln need of today than a Park? Did somebody say a achool? Yes, we need that bad enough and we are going to get It soon, but who can say when we will get a Park If we let thla opportunity slip. That Is for the people of Amherst to decide. We think the time la right now. The committee haa an option on an Ideal place now, one of the beauty spots of Amherst A few years from now they probably could not get it for twice the price they can have it for now—$11,000 A few dollars more would transform it into a Park second to none, a place where we could get out into Qod's fresh air ln the hot summer days, a place where we can take the little ones and know they are out of barms way. Do you realize that today there la no place In Amherst where the kids can play ball, no place but the atreet and they can't play there, aak BUI Miller. We can have a fine diamond, tennis courts, a football Held, etc. In this park. There Is also plenty of water so that with a little expense we can have a swimming pool for thi' kids and ln the winter this same pool will make a safe place for skating. There was no Fourth of July celebration ln Amherst this year, the reason being given that so many people leave town and go to other towns or to the lake ou that day. But what else la there for them to do? There Is no place ip town where they can go and have a day's pleasure along with heir children and their friends. Let us. have a Park of our own to go to and we wonjt have to leave town and pay toll to the street car company or anyone else. There may not be any financial return from such a Park but the pleasure to be gained from it will be return enough for most people, and remember, the object ln view Is a Memorial not a moneymaker. It la understood that he Legion is Btrongly ln favor of a hall aa it wants a place "fSat it can, practically speaking, call Us own. Very well, but wouldn't a place less ban the Redington do? Couldn't a little place be built somewhere within this park for a few thousand dollars that would serve as club rooms for the Legion? Come away, Legion, you did your bit ln the past and we think you huve a splendid opportunity again to do something for your home town. Help ua to get a place where everybody, both young and old can enjoy themselves, a place that won't deteriorate but will Improve with age, and a place that will be a real memorial to those who fell. At their last meeting the Stone- PERMANENT ROAD TO RE BUILT ON AMHERST END OP N. RIDQE ROAD. The Amherst Township Trustees report that work will start on the North Ridge road Friday of this week to repair the Amherst end of that road and make what might be called :i permanent Improvement by leveling the road and binding it together with tar over which will be put an usphalt top. The County Commissioners are cooperating wtth the township trustees In this improvement and have agreed to place the road under the regular parol system of the county as soon as Is it Mulshed in order to keep It In first class repair. This will Insure a permanent road Indefinitely and will surely be appreciated by Ihe people of this vitiligo and surrounding community. Henry Brandt states that work will be started Friday and that muterlal will be on hand so the Job can be finished In good time, hence the use of the road will not be delayed long. During the building of this roud it will be necessary for traffic to detour. It Is likely that most drivers will prefer to tuke the lake road ln going to Lorain and those going to Klyria will have no trouble tn avoiding this little piece of road on their way us there are about three different ways to go there on Improved roads. WHAT A FORD WORKER CAN 00 OR, A DAY'S POSSIBILITIES THE FORD FACTORY AT DETROIT. "THE mm Mil THE FliES" ■SB* Henrietta If this Ford man which we will follow through his day's activities at the Ford factory has been frugal, as many of them have, he will arrive at work ln a Ford car. During his morning's work he may be stricken with toothache or headache whereupon .he will visit the Ford doctor or dentist for relief. At noon, he Is served with u lunch consisting of sandwiches, fruit, hot coffee or soup and after that may see a Ford safety film. Now supposing that this is the man's pay day. After subtracting living expenses, he may deposit the remainder toward a Ford Investment certificate. Finished with the day's work, he can go to the shoe store for shoes for himself or son who is in school; or to the grocery store where, among other things, he can buy a sack of flour made from wheat grown on Henry Ford's farm- where Fordosn tractors do the work—und ground ln Henry Ford's flour mill, und then hauled by Ford trucks to the Ford store where It Is sold to Ford men; or he may want to order a custom-made suit, or buy one reudy made which he does in the Ford clothes shop. Maybe, a toothbrush Is all he needs, but he gets it ut a Ford store. Then he can purchase his meat In the Ford market. Or order his winter's supply of coke from the coke department. Everything la sold at cost to Ford men. If this Ford mun wants to rent a house, he goes to the Ford rental exchange; legal advise is given him by the legal department. But possibly he Is a student ln the Ford school; in that case he attends cluss after work. And stops in the Ford library on his wuy out. Then he may go to tho Ford Athletic field for u set of tennis or for baseball practice. Possibly he desires to take his family to the Ford band conert that evening; ho procures tickets before driving home In his Ford cur*.
