TWO PROCLAMAT|ONS
BY GOVERNOR FERRIS
MOTHERS DAY AND PEACE DAY
SET APART
In Eloquent and Forceful Language the
Governor Gives Reasons for
Observance
MOTHERS DAY

There is one word liz the English Ian
guage that commands the attention of
the proud and the humble, the great
and the small, the virtuous and the de-
PRAYED, the old and the young. That
word is Mother. 1t appeals to the
hearts of all men. In the year nine
teen hundred fifteen, the mothers of
Europe carry crushing burdens. The
mothers of America sympathize with
their sisters across the sea. The great
ness of nation depends upon the
mothers of that nation. The mother is
the guardian angel of childhood. Moth
erhood is the precious flower of woman
hood. Upon its purity and vigor de-
pend the welfare of the world.
Children need to be impressed with
this everlasting truth. Read the tri-
butte of Lincoln to his mother; read the
tribute of Henry Grady to his mother;
read the recent tribute of John Bur-
roughs to his mother.
Fathers are great and noble in pro-
portion as they are loyal to the moth
ers and in proportion as they guard and
protect the mothers of the land.
Let the boys and the girls and the
''grown-ups," who are away from
home on Mothers Day, write letter
of gratitude to mother. Let those who
are at home meet Mother with smile,
kiss and handful of flowers. Recite
to her the prayer she taught you at the
bedside.
Therefore, /, Woodbridge N. Ferris,
ask that the people of Michigan set
apart the second Sunday in May (he
9TH as Mothers Day. AS far as pos
sible, let parents in their homes and
both young and old in public meetings
discuss the theme of Mother with that
enthusiasm and sincerity which should
characterize all loyal Americans.

''DRYS" PLAN FOR
LAW ENFORCEMENT
CENESEE COUNTY VIGILANCE CON-
MITTEE FORMED AT FLINT
Representatives of Eight Different Fra
ternal Orders Meet at Lansing for
the Same Purpose

Nearly every township in Genesee
county is said to have been represented
at a meeting held in Flint recently,
the purpose of which was to provide
finance and ways and means whereby
the laws might be enforced with regard
to the liquor traffic. The plan decided
upon was to form township committees,
the chairmen of which are to report
local conditions to the county commit
tee which will then take whatever steps
may be necessary.
J..F. Rieman, of Burton township,
was elected president, John E. Well
wood, secretary and Peter Carton,
treasurer.
A committee was appointed composed
of DIR. William r. Davis, DIR. Hugh
Graham and j. F. Rieman, who are to
draft the constitution and make ar
rangements for the ways in which the
big committee will attempt to enforce
the laws
A movement somewhat in concert
with that outlined above was initiated
at Lansing, last week, when represen-
tatives of eight different state organi-
cations met in the headquarters of the
Anti-Saloon League, and outlined the
procedure of campaign for submis-
sion to the voters of Michigan in the
near future. by initiation. of an amend
ment providing for statutory prohibi-
ton.
The organizations represented were
the Ancient Order of Cleaners, Michi-
gan State Farmers Clubs, Michigan
State Grange, Michigan State Sunday
School Association, Woman's Christian
Union, Michigan State Federation of
Women's Clubs, Prohibition party and
State Association of Christian Endeav-

F. II. Seeley, of Chicago, and Phila

and complete relief, but closes the open

PEACE DAY

Peace on earth, good will to men. is
fundamental and imperative in every
civilization that calls itself Christian.
War is a confession of weakness, at
best necessary evil. 1t is not yet a
thing of the past because brute in
stincts that should be regulated and di-
rected are allowed to run riot. War is
destroyer; peace is builder. There
has never been war in which selfish
ness was not the direct or indirect
cause. 1t therefore follows that arma-
ment does not prevent war; standing
armies and great navies do not prevent
war. Preparation suggests war. Teach
men the arts of peace, train men in the
arts of peace, and war will disappear
from the face of the earth. Temper.
unreguleted, is the vice of vices. 1t
takes more courage to meet the re-
quirements of peace than war. Few
men are great enough to be always
kind, always just, always patient.
Most men find it easy to be ugly, hate
full and devilish
This year of all years in the history
of the world commands US to be men,
to be great in the arts of peace, to
know the sacredness of life. War
means the destruction of fatherhood
and motherhood; the destruction Of
home; the perpetuation of poverty;
hell on earth.
We now spend $500, 600, 900 year on
preparedness for war" Isn't this
the time to spend one per cent. of this
amount on the preparedness for peacef
Therefore, l. Woodbridge N. Ferris,
ask that the people of Michigan set
apart Tuesday, May eighteenth, as
Peace Day. Let the Grand Army of
the Republic, the Spanish-American
War Veterans, the Woman's Relief
Corps, the Daughters of the American
Revolution, the Sunday Schools, the
Churches, the Fraternal organizations
and the people generally, hold such ex-
ercises as will stir the emotions of love
and good will towards all men.
Both of the foregoing proclamations.
under the Great Seal of the State, were
signed:

SIN KNOCKOUTS
BY PREACHER
CLERGYMAN GIVES JESS WILLARD
SOME POINTERS
Says Champion Rendered Service to So
ciety and Tells Him How to
Remain Champ.

Jess Willard, the worlds fistic cham
pion, was recently handed some advice
by the Rev. A. D. Thibodeau, pastor of
the Sheridan Road Methodist Episcopal
Church, located in suburb of Chicago.
DR.. Thibodeau, who prefaced his SER
mon with comments on the encounter
between Willard and Jack johnson at
Havana, announced ten rules for Jess
to observe in order to retain the heavy
weight title.
The ten rules are:
Punch the devil every day as effect
lively as you did Jack johnson.
Shun the white lights of Broadway.
They are the guide posts to hell.
Don't let the pretty, powdered para
sites, who are bound to be on your
trail, make fool out of you.
Always introduce yourself as Jess
Willard, of Kansas. Kansas water
beats Broadway booze mile.
Stick close to your wife and four
babies. They will prevent your taking
the toboggan slide to hell.
Invest your money in a western
ranch; get an automobile and take into
your pulse lots of ozone.
Clean living is your capital on de-
posit. Don't overdraw the account.
Steer clear of the green table or the
sharks will get you.
Hit the Billy Sunday sawdust trail.
Come to Chicago next year and help
make the town dry.
"Jess Willard" DR.. Thibodeau said,
rendered society magnificent service
when he retired to private life and in
cidentally TO obscurity the notorious de-
generate, Jack johnson.
IL am not believer in prize fighting
and do not advocate it as a sport, but
admit that l was tremendously inter-
ested in the outcome of that fight in
Havana.
81 also am interested in the outcome
of the champion, Jess Willard. He
came from prohibition Kansas and grew
up with good habits.
"He is, | understand, to get $5, 900 a
week in New York. He will be put to
the most terrible test. The women will
be after him. The gambling sharks
will try to entrap him. thought lit
tie advice might help him some.'
