Kings Daughters and Sons.

The county board meeting of The
Kings Daughters and Sons was held
at the home of county secretary, Mrs.
Addie E. Godfrey, of Bancroft, last
Thursday. Those in attendance were
Mesdames F. N. Conn. M. L. Izor and
Miss Ethel Putnam of Durand, Miss
Stella Potter of Bancroft. The date
for the county convention, which is
to be held in Owosso, is Friday, May 81.
A good program has been arranged
and it is hoped that Mrs. Laura
Thomas of Detroit, assistant state
secretary, will be present.
After the business was completed
the guests were invited into the din
ing room where fine dinner was
awaiting them.
Mrs. Godfrey is soon to leave for
Ann Arbor to reside. She will be
greatly missed in the county, as she
is one of the most capable workers in
the order.-Durand Express.

Anniversary Sunday at the Congresa
tionaI Church.

Next Sunday marks the beginning of
Rev. q. 81. Hanks twelfth year as pas
tor of the Congregational church and it
is the hope of the church officials that
so far as possible all members of the
church and congregation and many
friends may be present to express by
their presence the good will all bear for
the pastor. This pastorate is by several
years the longest in the history of the
church and it is doubtful if there has
been one longer in any protestant
church in the county. Each year has
also marked an increase in every direc-
tion in the service Rev. Hanks has been
giving the people of his congregation
and the community, and the latter word
may be extended to include the entire
county as calls come in nearly every
week to minister in various ways to
people in different parts of the county.

The City Enumeration.

Have you been waited upon by the
census enumerator?
While it will be impossible for all of
the five census enumerators in the city
to complete their work by Saturday
night, still good progress is being made
by each one, and at least three of them
will have the work done. The enumer-
ators have been very careful n their
work and have made every endeavor to
locate every person who should be in
cluded in the list. It is however, more
than possible that some person may
have been omitted and in this case if
the person has any pride in his home
city he or she will make the fact known
to the enumerator so that they may call
for the information. 1t will be we'll for
all such persons to not delay beyond
Monday or Tuesday pext in doing this
The enumerators OF the several wards
are: First, Geo. S. Brown; second,
Miss Maize Shirley; third, Fred w.
Chappell; fourth, V. M. White; fifth,
Mrs. Lulu M. Washburn.

The Question Of New Depots.

At the meeting of the Improvement
Association week ago and again on
Tuesday the question of the position to
be taken by the city regarding the mat
ter of new depots was discussed and in
both instances the sentiment was unan-
imous that with conditions as they
are in the city it is best to ask the State
Railway Commissioners when they
visit the city today to order new
Grand Trunk station near Washington
street, new Michigan Central station
at the present location and a new build
ing to replace the shack now used for
depot purposes at the junction. 1t is
hoped that there will be no division of
opinion regarding this and that Owos-
so will present but the one view to the
Commission. The meeting is to be held
at 8 o'clock in the parlors of the Owosso
Savings Bank.

RESENT iTKEENLY.
Oakley Citizens Warmly Disapprove
Newspaper Articles A tack
ing Oakley.

Oakley people do not take at all
kindly to recent article appearing in a
Lansing paper and afterward copied in
Owosso papers, in which the village Of
Oakley was made to appear as cheap,
slovenly place infested mostly by sa-
looms, pool rooms and other more or
less Objectionable places. On all sides
it is denounced vigorously. The article
would be best described as a pipe
dream of cub reporter. The writer
spent the two or three hours he was in
the village warming his shins by the
hotel stove and bemoaning at his dis
appointment over the absence of ca
rousal scenes and lack of disorder in
the village. Finally he summoned his
imagination to his assistance and con-
jured up the article published. After
reading it one is forced to the conclu-
sion the yellow journalism is not all
confined to certain New York and
Chicago dailies.
