"The Batt& Cry of Peace. I"

"The Battle Cry of Peace" deals
with the subject which is today near
est the heart of every American cit
izen-the problem of Americas un-
preparedness.
1t portrays the defenseless condi-
tion of our country; the consequence
es to which this condition may lead;
and the way to avoid these conse-
quences.
The City of New York Is attacked
by a powerful foreign foe. You are
an eyewitness. You see the enemy
approaching the powerlessness Of the
city, the inadequacy of its forts and
defenses. You see the havoc wrought
by the enemy's cruisers, its subma-
rines, its airships-by its shells,
shrapnel, bombs. You see the most
beautiful skyline in the world in
flames; the metropolis of the west
ern hemisphere devastated.
You see New York fall into the
hands of the enemy; and the desc
Grafton that follows.
Then you are shown the way that
such a calamity can be avoided-the
one way. You are shown the way to
peace-the peace for which America
so earnestly prays-the peace with
honor. The Battle Cry of Peace was
written by j. Stuart Blackton and
Vitagraphed under his personal sup
ervision on scale never before at
tempted in motion pictures.
Acknowledgment is made to Hud-
son Maxim, international authority
OH arms and ammunition, for facts
contained in his "Defenseless Amer
ica,' and to score of prominent
Americans in army, navy and adminz
istrative circles for cooperation and
advice. Among its sponsors are the
foremost names in current American
history. Personages of national and
international Importance appear per-
eonally in the production.

Circuit Court.

The case of the Ithaca Cleaner
Farmers Elevator Company of Ithaca
against Symes Eagle and Co., OF
Flint was put over the term at the
request of attorneys for both the
plaintiff and the defendant. The suit
involves the refusal on the part OF
the defendant to accept carload of
beans at Ithaca last June, and is for
$500.
The Jury that heard the case of Frank
Fl. Main vs. Charles H. and Oscar Skin
ner and Augustus P. Wilcox in the cir.
cult court, Tuesday gave Main judg-
ment of $327 81. The judgment carries
costs. Main sued to collect the prin-
cipal and interest on one note and in
terest on second. The two notes
totaled 5000.
The jury in the case of the Empire
Cream Separator Co. against Titus s
Martin ct. al, returned a verdict Tues
day of no cause for action. A jury was
Immediately drawn to take mp the case
of James l.. Chapman of Owosso,
against the Ann Arbor Railroad Co
Chapman seeks to collect $1,000 da n
ages for injuries received while in the
employ of the defendant corporationl
While the two cases In which Almon
l.. Chase is interested are noticed for
trial under the present arrangement of
the calendar, whether or not theT will
be tried depends on Mr.. Chase's condi
ton. He is still confined to the house
as the result of being struck by an au-
tomobile last fall, and may not be able
to come to court. If he is not. the
cases will probably go over the term.
Joseph Starks of Bennington, who
pleaded guilty to charge of selling
diseased meat, and was ordered to ap-
pear Monday for sentence, was in court,
but Judge Miner deferred sentence for
another week.

Auto Struck by Engine.

An automobile driven by A. Hankins
of Elsie, was struck by an engine on
the M. G. crossing at Main street Sun
day evening. and the machine badly
damaged. Mr.. Hankins escaped in
jury, but his brother, Herbert j., rid
ing with him. sustained bad scalp
wound and several bruises.
The party had spent the day in Flint
and were on their way home when the
accident occurred. The outlook was
obstructed by box cars standing near
the crossing and the engine was seen
just in time to allow Mr. Hankins to
throw on all the power, and the ma.
chine lunged just far enough ahead 30
that the rear wheel and the back of the
body was struck and the machine
whirled around. The men were not
thrown out. They were able to go to
DR.. Arnold's Office. and after the
wounds were dressed. went to their
homes in Elsie.
The men did not hear the engine
whistle, if one was blown, and the
quick decision of Mr.. Hankins to throw
on the power undoubtedly saved their
lives. t,.-

Invite Grand Enoampment to Meet In
Owosso.

Arthur Ward reported at the I'm
provement association meeting, on
Tuesday noon, that the committee
had secured pledges to the amount
Of 81, ,425 toward the furnishings of
the armory, and asked for the ap-
pointment Of committee of three to
expend the money. Mr.. Ward, o. It
Sprague and E. o. Dewey were, up
on motion of Capt. j. o. Parker, ap-
pointed such committee.
r. o. Dewey stated that he had a
check for $500 from A. M. Bentley
to be added to the amount reported
by Mr.. Ward. He also stated that
Architect Bowd had contributed
$500, making the total, to date in
this fund $2,925. The subscription
list is not closed, as the committee
expects to receive several more sub
scriptions.
E. G.. Osborn stated that the local
I. o. o. F. lodges had invited the
grand encampment to meet here in
May 1917 and asked the endorsement
of the improvement association. The
same was given by practically a
unanimous vote, only one voting in
the negative and he so voted be-
cause of our present lack of hotel ac-
commodations for a large conven-
ton.

SCHOOL COMMENCEMENT

Tentative plans for the graduation
of the largest class in the history Of
the Owosso high school have been
| made.
The 1916 graduates will number
about thirty-four girls and twenty
three boys! Although the exact num-
ber has not been determined it is

high school faculty are 5usily engag-
ed in making further preparations
for the various events which will
mark graduation week.
The graduation exercises will be
held in the Baptist church at 500

Schermerhorn, editor of the Detroit
Times, and regarded as one of the
most brilliant speakers of the coun-
try. His subject has not been an
nounced.

duates will probably take place at
the high school building on the aft
ernoon of June 81, at o'clock. The
banquet to be participated in by the
senior and Junior class members is
to be held on June 9 at the Baptist
church.
But few days before the gradua-
ton the Senior Annual will be pub
lished. The Annual, which is the
class newspaper and magazine for
the year, promises to be among the
best literary productions ever turned
out by the local high school. Arthur
Cansfeld is editor-in-chief, while
Colon Mccormick is business man
ager.
The county normal graduating
class, numbering about twenty, will
hold its exercises in the normal room
at the high school building on We'd
nesday, June IA. The speaker at that
time will be ]. M. Munson of Lans-
ing, assistant superintendent of pub
lie instruction. He is regarded as

put up in thirty pound cans. They
are sold largely to big bakeries who

canning is necessarily one in which the
greatest caution from a sanitary point
is exercised. The room in which the
eggs are broken and the whites and
yolks separated, will be of white en-
amel, and the girls will be clothed in
white dresses All tools and recepta-
cles will be steralized, and the girls
must keep their hands spotlessly clean.

Petitions asking the submission of
the home rule or township option on
the liquor question are beinacirculated
In Michigan, in the hope that vote
may be forced at the November cleo.
tion at the same time the question OF
state wide prohibition is submitted.
The effect will be to mix the questions
up as 1t did in Ohio and might result in
voters in their confusion not casting
their ballot as they intend. The effect
of the passage of the home rule law if
state wide prohibition is defeated,
would be to do away with county local
option and make possible saloon pre-
cincts in every county-practically
multiplying the entire ground gained by
the temperance forces.
