TOWN BOARDS CAN
CONTROL SALOONS
IN WET TERRITORY

Although there was very little liquor
legislation enacted during the 1915
session OF the legislature, it is believ-
ed that Rep. Cowell Sours of Grand
Traverse county. one of the dry
members Of the house liquor commit
tee, succeeded in putting through a
bill that will result i'm the ousting of
"a umber Of saloons located in vari-
ou townships in wet territory
The Sours bill has been signed by
the governor and will become a law
August IS After that time township
boards will have authority to refuse
any or all applications for liquor IL
censes.
It is said the Sours bill has been
drawn in accordance with constitu-
tional requirements and will stand
the test OF the courts If an attempt
is made TO test its validity
1t is pointed out that the passage Of
the Sours bill is "a victory for the
"Drys" inasmuch as a great majority
of boards are composed OF men who
are out OF sympathy with the liquor
traffic

SOCIALIST PARTY FAv0RS
FIGHTING LIQUOR EVIL

The world wide dry" movement
made formidable entry into the
councils OF the Socialist Party at q
session of the Socialist national COM
mittee in Chicago recently. Carl d.
Thompson, secretary of special COM
mittee appointed "A year ago to gather
arguments on both sides of the liquor
question, presented report embody-
ing these conclusions: The Socialist
Party cannot remain Indifferent or in
active, but should take definite posi-
ton and active part in combating the
evils of alcoholism" In reference to
personal liberty" the report says: In
regard TO the restriction of personal
liberty, the committee cannot wholly
approve of the opinion held by those
who use this argument For while
there are certain personal rights that
should be inviolate, set there are
others that must give way if the COM
mon interest requires 1t.

SNOW LAST WEEK
SAVED DAMAGE To
MANY SPRING CROPS

Thousands of dollars OF damage to
Michigan crops was averted Monday
night and early Tuesday by snow and
rain. according TO experts at the Mich,
igan agricultural college. Their state
ments are based on reports from vari
Gus sections OF the state. Practically
every one states that snow and rain
alone prevented great injury TO grow
ing crops OF all descriptions. Students
at the college stayed up all night feed
ing smudges started TO protect the or
chards at the institution. At 3 O'Clock
the mercury fell to "a degrees. 1t
hovered there for "A short time and
then started climbing upward.
At Grand Rapids and Jackson a fall
of heavy snow greeted the early risers
Tuesday Ii is believed the snow and
rain which followed IL served to pre-
vent a frost which was predicted for
Monday night. Farmers and garden
ers in that section are of the opinion
that the snow and rain saved thou
sands OF dollars worth of crops, both
in tender vegetables and fruit. The
strawberry crop. however, has been
retarded. II lis said.

HEALTH OFFICER
LITTLE ASKS THE
PEOPLES HELP
OUTBREAKS OF DISEASE SHOULD
BE PREVENTED BY OBEY
ING LAWS

Health Officer Little makes the fol-
lowing explanations and requests re-
garding health conditions They
should be read by every resident of
Belding and carefully followed
THE Board of Health has at diff
ferent times brought before the public
through these columns the laws relat-
ing TO public health and the necessity
of enforcing the same, and yet ii does
not seem TO be clear To a few that the
laws regulating the control of dan
gerous communicable dieases must be
strictly enforced
''Whooping cough and chickenpoX
are dangerous communicable diseases
and il shall be the duty of the prin-
cipal OF any school or the teacher in
any school room or building whenever
any disease dangerous to public
health breaks out in his room or
building TO Immediately notify the
health officer whose duty ii shall be
upon receiving such notice TO investi
gate the same at once and institute
such restrictive measures as will con-
troll the spread Of the disease.
Smallpox has many times been
diagnosed as chickenpoX. there has
long been trouble of this kind. but
recently the mildness of smallpox has
made this error more common than
formerly and for this reason the pub
lie health interests should be given,
the benefit OF the doubt.
Children having so-called chicken
poX should not be allowed to attend
school and should be promptly isolat-
ed
1T should be remembered taht
adults seldom have chickenpoX, and
an eruption occurring in person over
ten or twelve years of age should be
regarded as probable smallpox and
the same precaution must be taken as
in cases of recognized smallpox until
some competent authority has decid-
ed that it is not smallpox
II should be the desire of everyone
TO cooperate with the Board OF
Health and assist i'm preventing
continuance OF contagious diseases in
the city and also 10 prevent the out
break OF any new disease The board
and health officer are always glad TO
explain and assist in carrying out the
laws.

PUT ONE OVER ON THE
RAILROAD COMPANIES

our neighboring village of Portland
had a citizen who evidently knew how
to put one over on the railroad COM
panies. The Review says:
Transportation com npanies are some
times careless in handling shipments
and il often happens that there are
delays Geirge w Wood
who left for California last week, fig
ured out a system which should land
the car in which his personal effects
were shipped in California without in
terruption.
1t is the rule that where livestock is
shipped the company allows one per-
son TO accompany the car, in order
to care for the stock, allowing free
transportation for this purpose, stock
having precedence over other freight
in the way OF speed. Mr.. Wood, with
no further use for a COW than TO ia
ciliate the early arrival of his car at
its destination, purchased onel and
esta blished quarters for her in one
end OF the car, taking passage for
himself at the same time. He will
be on hand at all times TO see that
his goods are rushed through TO the
coast and when he arrives there.
"bossy." having served the purpose for
which she was purchased, will prob
ably be sold to some farmer who
doesn't object to having the product
of a Michigan dairy farm mingle with
his native herd.

at the Church of Christ last Sunday
morning. The Post. the Corps. the
Sons Of Veterans and the Daughters.
of Veterans met at the c. A. r. hall
at $50 and marched in a body to the

ed by the Sons of Veterans and
the Womans Relief Corps was escort
ed by the Daughters Of Veterans The
four orders arrived at the church
shortly after ten o'clock and were
seated in the body Of the church.
Rev Chas, NJ Pease preached the
sermon Of the day. He reviewed some
Of the scenes as seen at present on
the sites Of the old battle fields of the
south. Mr. pease spent several years
of his life in the southland and thus
he was enabled to bring the veterans
concrete examples Of the changes that
had taken place on the old battle
grounds. Re used as his central
theme through all the discourse the
text: II will make His name TO be
remembered in all generations.
Rev Pease very ably presented this
theme and compared the past deeds of
the veterans in preserving this coun-
u anu tltNlbil u AAtli IitHtiAN tlftd
of making Christs name to be re-
membered. He spoke OF the reason
ableness of them accepting the call
of Christ and enlisting in His cause As
a close TO his remarks he tended an
invitation TO any one in the audience
to give themselves To the service OF
the Lord as they had done for their
country.
The church was tastefully decorated
with flags and bunting. In the middle
OF the pulpit stood a tent and over it
draped on the wall was large flag.
In front OF the tent were two stacks
of arms From the front corners Of
the pulpit bunting was draped to the
central light Along the entire front
Of the pulpit was a bank OF flowers
consisting of daisies, ferns, geraniums.
etc.
