City's Fame As Health Resort
Recalled With Payette Donation
To Bacon Library Collection
Everette Payette, well-known Wy
andotte insurance dealer moved
back the finger of time on the dial
plate of Wyandotte local history by
donating his 1888 picture of the
“River Park Hotel” to the local
history collection of the Bacon
Memorial Public Library.
Past history of the city shows
Wyandotte plentifully supplied with
hotels. Not the least in importance
was the w’ell-known “River Park
Hotel” located at the southeast
comer of Biddle Avenue and Wal
nut Street. The grounds extended
south the entire block to Poplar
Street and east to the water front.
Built In 1878 by Moses W. Field
of Detroit, the hotel attracted visi
tors from many states who were
seeking a pleasure as well as a
health resort. The “River Park” spe
cialized in health-giving sulphur
spring baths.
The picture tells a story of days
when side-wheeler steamers stopped
regularly at the Wyandotte docks
unloading freight; and passengers
Army Magic Carpet for Young Men
With Urge to Travel; Recruits
Offered Choice of Service Theatre
Tiger hunting In the jungles of
Burma . . . pearl-diving in the
blue depths of the Persian gulf . . .
riding in a camel-caravan in the
land of the pyramids . . . gold
prospecting in Alaska.
Not a travel folder of romantic
adventures offered by a tourist bu
reau, the strange sights listed from
the far corners of the world are
among the opportunities for travel
and adventure offered by the Army
for men who enlist or re-enliat in
the service.
Under legislation recently enacted
by Congress, every man who enlists
for a period of three years has his
choice of the Air Forces, Service
Forces or Ground Forces as well as
the right to select the overseas
theatre in which he wishes to
serve. These include the European,
Pacific, Mediterranean and China
theaters, the Caribbean Defense
Command and the Alaskan depart
ment.
In addition to travel, there are
recreational facilities with an ex
i tensive athletic program carried
j out under leadership of famous
'sport stars; USO entertainment
, with stars of stage, screen and ra
dio; music ranging from hill-billy
! bands, thrpugh swing and boogie
woogie to chamber music and sym
phony orchestras.
The inducements have been added
by the Army to make it an attrac
tive modern career. Sgt. Walter B.
Morris is in charge of Wyandotte
recruiting detachment in the Post
; office building, assisted by Pfc. Don
H. Moore. They will be in their of-
3$
eager to enjoy the hotel’s spacious
veranda, the chef’s tasty meals, the
expansive green lawns and trees
and the water-front activities and
games. Houses for billiards and
pool were located conveniently on
the hotel grounds.
The large sulphur spring bath
house on the water front indicates
provision for capacity crowds. In
the foreground of the picture an
old dmnibus marked “River Park”
and reputedly owned by Charles
Ruhl is hastening to meet the boat,
while swinging along Biddle avenue
is another carriage, drawn by superb
prancing horses, taking riders on
a pleasure jaunt, Curious promen
aders loiter outside the fence to
catch a glimpse of new arrivals.
Fifty-six years have come and
gone since the hotel burned in 1889,
yet pictures, relics and furniture
from this building bring to Wyan
dotters a remembrance of
times in the by-gone days.
fice from 8 a m. to 12 noon to talk
to prospective recruits and the re
mainder of the dc y, they will cir
culate about the city to discuss
advanages offered by the Army to
advantages offered by the Army to
&& a career.

Lawyer's Fee Tied
Up in Burglar's Kit
CLEVELAND (U.R) The way
Attorney Joel Krupman figures,
at least you can’t blame a guy
for trying.
Last June he defended Stan
ley Gregor against a charge of
burglarizing a Cleveland case,
and he lost the case. Gregor now
is in Ohio Penitentiary.
Gregor gave Attorney Krup
man a note for SSOO as his fee.
Part of the evidence in the
case was a handsome set of bur
glar tools seized at Gregor’s
home.
Since then, Krupman has
taken a judgment against Greg
or.
So he fought in common pleas
court to have the burglar tools
sold at public auction to satisfy
the judgment.
Judge James C. Connell said
no. He ordered the burglar’s kit
held for further evidence.
