Elks Show Patriotism.

Owosso Lodge No. 1853, b. p. D. E
has set good example for patriotic
organiza tions of the county by voting
to purchase Liberty Bonds of the second
issue worth $4,000. The action was
taken at the meeting of the lodge Tues.
day night.
The Owosso Elks helped to raise
Shiawassee county's apportionment Of
the first Liberty Loan by subscribing
for 81. 900 bond.
The lodge also voted to assess each of
it's mem bers two dollars to go into the
fund for establishing and equippine q
base hospital overseas. The grand lodge
at Its meeting in Boston voted for this
step. As there are about 500, 900 Elks
in the country, this means an assess
ment of two dollars for each member.
The local lodge originally voted to pay
the first ipstallment of it's quota out Of
its treasury. but It has now been de.
cided to pay the money by assessment.
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1917-10-12

The total amount of bonds appor-
toned as Michigan's share of the second
issue is 1924. 900, 900, which the govern.
ment expects Michigan to buy. AS
stated above Shiawassee's share is $945.-
300, which the people Of this county
ought to purchase to keep our name on
the roll of honor as a county which
does it's "bit" when called upon. 1t
can be easily done If each township and
city will sell its share of the bonds
according to the apportionment above
and which is very favorable to the
townships as the gill, 200 deduction is
all taken off from the apportionment
originally made to them. Apparently
1t is for the residents of the townships
to say whether or not Shiawassee shall
be kept out of the Stacker" class as
assurance has been given the county
co mmittee that both Owosso and Cor.
unna will more than care for their
share.
