breds that have been left to SHIFT Tor
themselves with improper feed, filthy
quarters and often little protection
from the cold, none that have come

this was the reason that the Plymouth

County Sunday School Picnic.

The County Sunday School picnic
at McCurdy park Friday of next
week, September 1st promises to be
largely attended by the schools of the
county. About forty schools from all
parts of the county have expressed their
intention of being represented, and ar
rangements are being made for a special
train over the Ann Arbor road from
Byron, connecting at Durand with the
morning trains over the Grand Trunk.
The fare over the Ann Arbor from
Byron for adults is so cents, Durand
80 cents and Vernon % cents, and
children will be carried for half the
above fare.
There will be a conference meeting
of tie county and township officers,
superintendent and workers in the
Casino at 1890 a. M. The basket din
ner will be spread at noon, families,
friends or schools joining as they desire
At 1870 program will be carried
out in the casino. The music will be

fenced conductor. Two splendid speak

a prominent business man, and for
years member of the executive COM
mittee of the State Association. Re-

Mrs. Paul Nj. Roth, of Chicago, is in
the city for visit while Mr.. Roth is
making his semi-annual trip to Cali
fornia and other western states He
has show rooms in Chicago of stock
representing twenty-six factories, and
sells in the city to local dealers and
buyers who come from smaller cities
and makes two trips a year to points
between Chicago and the coast, taking
about ten weeks to each trip.
The Owosso Business Colleges fall
term begins Monday, Sept. 4th, and
the prospects are that there will be an
unusually good attendance. The rooms
have been enlarged, new equipment
of various kinds added and the school
is now as well prepared as any in the
State. The faculty has been increased
and Mr.. w. G. Wollaston, the secretary,
will be present all the time. He is an
expert in commercial work, and has
bad successful experience as a teacher.
Special rates are being made for those
who enter at the opening of fall term.
General complaint is made of the
poor condition of the road west of Chip
| man street between the city and town
| ship. If the road is not put in better
shape soon the people living along the
street as we'll as some west and north
will be cut off from the rural free
delivery service. This may seem to be
an injustice to citizens who are not
directly responsible for the care of the
road but they will have to suffer along
with others as the routes will have to be
changed to allow the carriers to drive
over roads that are at least fairly good.
The announcement of performance
of "The Holy City, in this city, Thurs
day, Sept. eth, is received with great
satisfaction. No play presented this
season has made the impression credited
to this great Biblical drama produced by
Gordon and Bennett in even more
sumptuous manner than is their other
conspicuously successful productions.
The coterie of players, trained chorus
and monster scenic equipment of this
grand dramatic spectacle is everywhere
praised for superior combination and in
arranging for its appearance here
Manager Mehlenbacher has given his
patrons theatrical feast that will be
ong remembered.
w. B. Cline, of Yorkville, who will
superintend the manufacture and ship
ment of Tryabita, and the purchase of
supplies for the factory at the Vigor.O
plant, is getting the machinery ready
FOR try out this week. The shafting
is out of line, the rolls rusty and the
knives in need of overhauling, so that
some of the parts had to be sent away
for repair. Beside Mr.. Cline, the COM
pany will send an expert baker, roll
man and a cooker from Yorkvllle to the
Owosso factoty, and will employ sixteen
girls and nine or ten men from this city.
The company will buy wheat and coal
hero and ship the food in car load lots,
most of it to go to the Western states.
The delay in putting in switch for the
sidetrack has Inconvenience the com
pany and delayed the starting Of the
factory.
