Company G to be Kept Up.

At meeting of Co. G held in the
ed captain; z. 81. Ross, first lieutenant; and
Fred Edwards. second Lieut. 1t was
thought necessary that some representa-
tives Of the company should go at once to
get his opinion about the organizing of a
new company before proceeding to fill up
the ranks with new men. Accordingly,
by aeanimous vote of the company, the
three newly elected officers, Capt. Heyer
and Lieuts. Ross and Edwards were in
structed to proceed at once to Island Lake.
and Saturday morning they left, taking
with them the resignation of Capt. Van
Epps, as captain of Co. G., M. N. g., which
Lieut. Edwards had in his possession. The
committee had an interview with Gen.
Irish. who authorized them to go ahead
with the organization and stated that the
company would be admitted to the state
troops as soon as matters could be arranged.
Before adjourning the following non-com-
missiOned officers were appointed: First
sergeant, II. Bartrem; I'd Sergt., F. Getch-
ell; Sd Sergt., E. Case; 4th Sergt., f. Ange-
vine; 5th Sergt, F. Hawley; post quarter
master sergeant, Will Eggleston; 1st Corp,
A. Murner; I'd Corp, w. Robertson; Sd
Corp, F. Van Dyne; 4th Corp, E. Rigley;
5th Corp, W. A. Sparling; 9th Corp, Chas
Lukerman. A short drill was held in the
armory Sunday to acquaint the new men,
bers with the commands so that they might
take part in the Memorial Day parade. At
the regular drill Tuesday night several new
members were taken into the company, the
roster now containing AZ names. Other
applications have been received and several
will be admitted at the next meeting.
There will probably be but five new com
panies organized in the State, and If Owos-
so secures admittance it will be due to the
fact that Co. G was one of the best II not
the best Company that enlisted as volunteers
for the present war.

The Army Work of the Y. M. c. A.

The Young Mems Christian Associations
of Michigan never did better work than
in providing tents at Camp Eaton where
the boys could gather to read the papers,
magazines and good books provided, to
write letters, and to hold religious service.
The work was at once practical and proved
immensely popular. The influence of the
meetings spread throughout the camp. The
work done convinced those in charge that 1t
should be maintained at all points where
the boys may CO. The experience was
similar in other states The result has been
that the several state organizations have
decided to carry on the work If the neces-
sary funds can be secured-a question about
which there should be no uncertainty. 1t
is the positive duty of the citizens of the
country to provide for the pushing forward
and expansion of the work. The boys who
have gone forth from all parts of the country
are entitled to and have a right to expect
that such work for their convenience and
uplifting shall be provided.
On Sunday meetings were held through
out the state to interest the people in the
work and to secure funds, the State Com
mlttee having asked for $4,000. While the
attendance was not large at the meeting
held in the M. K. church, still the interest
was good and the results very satisfactory.
DIR. b. s. Knapp, president of the assoca-
tion, presided. After prayer by Rev. L..
w. Spayd, DR.. Knapp explained the object
of the meeting He was followed by Lieut..
Il IL. Ross who had splendid opportun-
ity to observe the good work done at Camp
Eaton, and by Secretary VanNess who
spent several days at the camp in charge of
the tents As result of the meeting a
collection of $25 was taken, which was
increased to S53 at the union evening service
in the Baptist church. DIR. b. S. Knapp,
G.. T. Campbell and DIR. b. 5. Sutherland
will endeavor to increase the amount to $l00,
a task which should not be at all difficult.
Burton b. Johnson, of this city, who has
had several years practical experience in
the associations of Owosso and Ann Arbor,
and who is known to be amply qualified for
the work, is to be at once sent to Chicka-
manga Park.

Free Text Books.

Free Text Books.
City Attorney Hadsall has received from
Attorney General Maynard his opinion on
certain questions asked him by Superinten-
dent of Public Instruction Hammond rela-
tive to the free text book law. According
to the opinion the question of the adoption
OF the system for this school district was
carried at the spring election. Part of the
questions and opinion are given:
lst. sin voting at district meeting on
the question of free text books, is a majority
of all the votes of the qualified voters of the
district required, or is a majority of all those
present and voting sufficient"
I'd. ''ln case majority Of all the dis
trict is required, will you please instruct the
school officers how to proceed to determine
the number residing in the district who are
qualified to VOTE"
The Attorney General says: "The first
two questions presented may be considered
together, and my reply is that notwithstand'
ing the fact that the portion of the acts bear
inS uPOu OQuOosioho oAO NV "o o~'S&s,NS,~,
ly framed as could be desired, it seems to me
that in voting at school district meeting on
the question of free text books, a majority
of the qualified voters of the district present
and voting on the subject is sufficient
By the words qualified voters is meant
those who are qualified to vote on the ques
ton of raising money in the district"
Another question is:
"As referred to in these acts, is there any
difference in the expressions district meet
ings' and district elections Ii so please
explain" Mr. Maynard replies:
I'm answer to your fifth question woulc
say that the words meeting or election
as used In the two acts under considera
ton, should be considered and treated al
one and the same thing"

Memory of the Veterans Honored.

Greater interest in the proper observance
out the entire country this year than at
any time in the past. This was so In Ow0s-
so, the citizens doing everything possible TO
honor the memory of the fallen heroes Of
6l-'65, and to show respect and manifest
their kindly feeling to the living. The les
sons taught by the day are making deeper
impression year by year upon the younger
generation, thus assuring the old veterans
that the day will long be observed after
they have answered the final command.
The exercises commenced Sunday morn
ing when L. B. Quackenbush Post, the
Women's Relief Corps, and large number
of people attended services at the COngrega-
tional church, which was decorated with
the Stars and Stripes. Rev. Il. King as.
sisted the pastor. reading the scripture and
offering fervent and patriotic prayer.
The memorial address of Rev. j. G. Cro-
mer pleased every one present, being just
and impressive tribute to the veterans.
In the afternoon members of the Post and
w. X. G. visited the several cemeteries in
the vicinity of Owosso and decorated tle
graves of all soldiers.
Monday proved to be an ideal day for the
outdoor exercises. Business was practical
ly suspended, the factories being closed all
day while the business places closed in the
afternoon. Soon after ~ O'Clock the people
began to assemble for the march to the
cemetery, and when the line was finally
formed on Mason street at 2 o'clock very
large number of citizens were in line. The
line of march extended up Water to Oliver,
east to Washington and south to Oakhill
cemetery. The procession was led by
Marshal Wiley and assistant Geo. f. Rob-
inson, followed by the Post drum corps, Co.
g Owosso Light Infantry, Uniformed Rank
10 o f., Modern Woodmen of America,
Uniformed Rank X. r., Arbeiter Verein,

of nearly 200 children who marched on the
sidewalk alongside the procession, led by
Comrade w. A. Richardson. The children
carried flowers and at the proper time beau
tifully decorated the graves of the old SOL
dIers who slept in Oakhill. Co. G placed
beautiful wreaths on the graves of Jay
Campbell and Elmer butcher.
The program as published was carried
out in full at the grove, Mayor Kerwin pre-
siding. The address of Mrs. Emma K.
Knapp, Of Howell, past department presi-
dent of the w. r, c., and of Rev. G. v.
Northror, pastor of the Baptist church,
thrilled the thousands present, the latter
being especially patriotic. We regret be-
ing unable, to publish both addresses in full
as they deserve.

A Monument for the Soldiers.
BY JAMES wHITcoMB RILEY.

monument for the soldiersl
And what will ye build it of
Can ye build 1t Of marble, or brass, or bronze,
Outlasting Soldiers lover
Can ye glorify it with legends
AS grand as their blood hath writ
From the inmost shrine OF this land of thine
To the outermost verge of itS
And the answer came: We would build 1t
Out of our hopes made sure,
And out of our purest prayers and tears
And out Of our faith secure;
We would build it out of the great white truths
Their death hath sanclihed,
And the sculptured forms of the men in arms,
And their faces ere they died.
And what heroic figures
Can the sculptor carve In stone?
Can the marble breast be made to bleed,
And the marble lips to moanS
Can the marble brow be feveredS
Gan the marble eyes be graved
To look their last, as the flag floats past,
On the country they have savedS
And the answer came: The figures
Shall all be fair and brave,
And, as befitting, as pure and white
AS the stars above their grave
The marble lips, and breast and brow
Whereon the laurels lie
| Bequeath US the right 20 guard the flight
OF the old flag In the skiesl
| A monument for the Soldiers
| Built of peoples love,
And blazoned and decked and panoplied
With the hearts ye build it OF?
And see that ye build it stately,
In pillar and niche and gate,
| And high in pose as the souls of those
| 1t would commemorate

Mccormick Day, Saturday, June II, 1891

Mccormick Day, Saturday, June II, 1898.
The past week we have taken more orders
for Mccormick machines than were ever
taken in the same time during the history
of Mccormick business in Shiawassee Co.
Evidently farmers have become satisfied
that they are not safe in taking chances
with light, cheap, experimental machines,
this year. 50 great is the outlook for an
immense growth of grain and grass, that
none but the substantial built machines will
handle it. While others dread the approach
ing harvest we are impatient Tor 1t to arrive.
Then we can more clearly demonstrate the
superiority of Mccormick machines in the
field. This week, three more car loads OF
Mccormick machines will arrive, alto.
gether making the largest invoice of binders
and mowers ever received by any finn in
Shiawassee Co. Remember that Saturday,
June IL, is the day we deliver these ma
chimes to the farmers. Free dinner, free
music, free speeches, general all-round
good time.

Finance Committee Meeting.

At meeting of the Grand lodge
Finance Committee, held in Dayton
on Sunday, May Ist, at which were
present the Grand Master Workman
and the Deputy Grand Master Work
man, besides a majority of the Com
mittee, and the Grand Recorder, 1t
was decided to issue notice to all
members of the Jurisdiction who
are absent from their LOCAL Lodges,
to file photograph of themselves
with the Recorders OF their respec-
tive Lodges, the object being to facil-
itate identification in case of death.
The Supreme Relief Board has fixed
rules governing the allowance OF
claims, amongst which is one which
necessitates the proving beyond a
possibility OF a doubt the identity OF
a deceased member and thoroughly
connecting him with his Lodge. The
photograph furnishes a very simple
and complete medium by which this
can be accomplished.
1t was further decided at the meet
ing that it would be advisable tor
the Grand Master Workman to call
an extra session of the Grand Lodge
in June next, for the purpose of re-
vising the Constitution. a meeting
of the Grand Lodge can be held at
the season mentioned at no great ex-
pense to the Order, as a sufficient
number of delegates TO the Masonic
and Odd Fellows Grand Lodge ses-
sions at Carson City are members OF
the A. o. U. W., and eligible to seats
in the Grand Lodge. These can be
elected to represent their Lodges,
and in this manner a full reprcsen-
tation can be had. The necessity
for the extra session arises from the
fact that the old issue of the Consti-
tuition has been exhausted, and be-
fore obtaining a new issue the whole
subject matter should be revised and
many discrepancies now existing
made to harmonize with the Su-
preme Lodge law. Pending the call
of the Grand Lodge extra session
the Grand Lodge Committee on Laws
and Supervision will be requested
to prepare all of the amendments
necessary, and will be ready to re-
port as soon as the Grand Lodge is
convened.
