how well they are being cared for
by the Amalgamated Sugar Company.
During the recent frost about ESQ
acres OF beets were frozen and had

MICH. NATIONAL GUARD
in MOTION PICTURES

Is Michigan prepared for war? Is
the money we are expanding on the
Michigan National Guard being waist
ed? These are questions which every
taxpayer and every patriotic citizens
have right to ask.
East Jordan will soon have a chance
to answer the queries, Soldier and
Citizen, Too" the wonderful six-reel
feature of the Michigan state troops
including our own Company 81" in
action, will be exhibited at the Temple
Theatre next Monday, June 5th.
These pictures were directed by
Major M. j. Phillips, of Owosso, a NOV
ing picture expert with 20 years mill
tary training. They show clever rough
riding, artillery going into action, long
lines of charging cavalry, infantry en-
trenching along mile-long front and
defending these trenches from behind
,barbed-wire entanglements. They
picture battle, staged in accord with
the principles of attack and defense
evolved by the European war. They
show the wounded being picked up
and carried away by Hospital Corps
men.
In short, no activity of our citizen
soldiery in preparing themselves for q
call, to Mexico or elsewhere, is nelect
ed.

Marrying in China.

China is becoming Americanized.
Though she has changed from repub-
lie to monarchy, In the matter of ro-
nance China has advanced about 1000
gears at one long jump. DR.. V. X. Wei
lington Koo, the new Chinese minister
who, as an orator, rivals former Sen
ator Bailey of Texas In his younger
days, gave concrete example Of
China's development at the conven
ton of the Chamber of Commerce of
the United States. I'm the old days
in China,' said DR.. Koo, marriage
had to be contracted through a match
maker, generally mental woman,
more interested in getting share of
the wedding cake than in the happi-
ness of the participants. AS a result
hundreds of thousands of families
were made unhappy and millions of
force for centuries, because the match
makers constantly urged that each
young man or young woman, IL left
alone, would not know how to pick a
suitable life partner for himself or
herself. But the influence of modern
civilization has made the people see
the folly of casting their lot into the
hands of third party. Today neither
the young man nor the young woman
would stand any interference with his
or her matrimonial venture" Are the
Chinese young men and young women
down-hearted? No.-Leslie's.
