OUR SERVICE ARMY.

Lines suggested by reading Presi
dent Woodrow Wilson's message to
his fellow COuntrymen:
Who tills the soil, who tends the
weaving loom,
Who strives to thwart the threatened
famine's gloom,
Till Freedoms Fight and Manhood's
Cause are won,
Is soldier, though he never yields a
gun!
WHO raises grain and crops the world
to feed,
Who mines the coal our ocean trans
ports need,
Fights bloodless battles meath Old
Glory's stars,
Though oceans lie between him and
the wars
Who operates the train that brings
supplies
AS well as he who shoots and fights
and dies,
Who in constructive manner does his
part,
Old GIory's Service Soldier is at
heart!
Who by his fearless printed broad
cast word
Proclaims till the entire world has
heard
His plea for Justice for his fellow
men
Is Captain, fighting with his mighty
pen.
Our fathers sang of old "our Cause
is Just"
And, like them, Conquer" now we
say eve Must"
Well answer Father Woodrow to
your call.
God guide our President! God bless
US all!

PLAINTIFF
WAS DEFRAUDED

One of the most interesting cases
at this term of the Circuit Court was
the case of Fred Rauls VS.. Louis Gross,
the real estate dealer. 1t seems that
in December 1915, Gross sold the old
Appel farm in the Town of Seneca to
Mr. Rauls, and the case grew out of
that sale, the plaintiff charging that
Mr.. Gross fraudulently represented to
Mr.. Rauls the boundaries and the land
that the farm contained, and further.
that the personal property on the place
was unincumbered, and several other
grounds Of fraud. The jury found in
favor of the plaintiff on every question
submitted to them for their verdict
and assessed plaintiffs damages, be-
cause of the fraud, in the amount of
S1400.00. John Roberts was attorney
for the plaintiff and Goggins. Brazeau
& Goggins for Mr.. Gross.

"THELITTLE
AMERICAN'

That superb photoplay attraction
with which the Palace Theatre will
open its doors to the Grand Rapids
public under the new management to-
day, was chosen for the occasion
because of all the many offerings of
the several producing companies, none
could quite so we'll express the spirit
Of Grand Rapids and Wood County at
the present time. Mary Pickford is a
nationwide favorite, and never has
she seemed sweeter than when as the
American girl in the European war
zone, she expresses to the fullest the
true American courage and devotion
to great cause. The story is wonder
fully romantic, and the settings and
Photographic effects are indeed Won
derful. Everywhere it has been shown
in Chicago and other big cities it has
evoked the greatest enthusiasm, and
it is certain that Grand Rapids people
will be no exception. In order that
every school boy and girl may see this
remarkable feature, a special school
children's matinee will be given at
four o'clock at special prices. Evening
at and $50. All seats zoe.

Keep the Flag in Your Window.

More ardent than any other patri-
OF, more loyal and downright than any
grOWn-up can be, are the children Of a
community. To schoOlbOys and school
girls a thing either is, or it isn't.
They don't split hairs like their elders ;
they neither pussyfOot nor quibble
nor have conscientious scruDleS.
1t is so when school children talk
about the war as they all do. They
raise no futile questions of whether it
was right for America to get into
the war; they know we dre right be-
cause we are in. They know that be-
cause we are in we are going to win.
They talk about what their kin and
friends are going to do to help win
of what will happen when Big
Brother Jim hits the Flanders line; Of
how Bill from across the street or
Tom from out In the country, cousins
it may be, will make the Germans sick
when he goes over the top.
They don't grumble, they boast, Of
the taxes their fathers pay, of the
sacrifices they make to buy Liberty
bonds of the socks their mothers knit,
and of the things left off the table
that the soldiers at the front and the
children of France may be fed.
He will be a sad child who is un-
able to make such a boast this year.
His way through the winter term of
school will be rough. He will be ffOut-
ed and ieered and will have to endure
persecution, for youngsters are not
considerate of the feelings of one of
their own age. 1t is likely he will
have to fight, if he can't "cOme clean"
for his Uncle Sam.
In a simple way children may be
saved from all that. To American
boys and girls the flag is their coun-
try. Put a flag in your window. Give
your child a ready-made answer to
any question of his loyalty. Do not
subject him to the certain humiliation,
If not persecution, which any doubt
of your patriotism will infiict upon
him.

SUDDEN DEATH
Of v. H. HEATH

Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. w. Paulus receiv-
ed a message Wednesday evening an
nouncing the death of w. H. Heath at
his home in Chiffon, Wis, that day.
This message was a great shock to
the many friends of the deceased in
Grand Rapids where he and his family
had resided for several years while
he was employed on the Daily Repor-
ter The cause of death is not known
at this writing, but must have been
rather sudden as no one seems to know
that he had been sick. His father died
about a year ago and his mother pass
ed away two weeks ago, and perhaps
these great losses may have had a
tendency to depress him and may have
had something to do with his sudden
death. His wife and two children GER
tainly have the sympathy of all their
acquaintance in Grand Rapids. The
writer and the Reporter office force,
are specially grieved over the know
ledge of his death. During his en-
ployment in the Reporter office he had
formed very warm, intimate friend
ships and his death is greatly regrett-
ed.

PLAN OF WISCONSIN
Food Administrator Herbert
Hoover Will Adopt 1t for

SENDS WORD TO SWENSON
Advises the State Food Administrator
That He Will Urge All Other States
TO Adopt the System Put into
Force for Wisconsin.

MadisOn-FoOd Administrator Her
bert Hoover is so well pleased with
the success of the Wisconsin method
of conservation In meatless and wheat
less days that he has sent a message
to Mangus SwensOn, state food admin
istratOr, notifying him that the nation
al office has urged all other states to
adopt the Wisconsin plan.
The dispatch states further that pro-
prietors and managers of the 996 hotels
and restaurants In Wisconsin have
been asked to make a report to the ma
tiOnal administrator regarding their
experiences in observing the weekly
meatless and wheatless days.
Food Administrator Swenson said
that the idea had been taken up extern
sively in this state even by private
families, and that it has been success
full beyond expectation.

Keep Liquor From Troops.

Gov. E. L. Philip sent letter to all
no drafted men sent to concentration
camps were intoxicated or carried in
tox1cating liquor with them. He ad-
yised that men be appointed in charge
Of the local contingents Of drafted
men who will enforce the rule that
diately prior to taking trains for the
camps at Battle Creek, Mich, and
Rockford, Ill, or while on the trains
to those camps. Governor Philips
letter to local boards is as follows:
1T has been called to my attention
that well-intentioned people have Civ
en- to selected men, prior TO their en-
tratnment and at stations en- route to
the mobilization camp, various guam
titles of liquor. Liquor has also been
concealed in baskets of food and fruit
that were given to men of the Nation
al army en- route to their mobilization
camp. Such gifts result in very bad
effect on the men, make them defiant
Of discipline and are likely to lead TO
cOurt-martial for the unfortunate man.
But apart from the effect upon the
men, it defames the good name and
reputation of the state. We must see
to 1t that not a single person from this
state enters q mobilization camp un-
der the influence of liquor. In select
Ing the man who is to be in charge OF
the contingent from your local board
Will you please select one who will en-
force the rule that the men of the Ma
tiOnal army shall have no liquor what
ever prior to their entrainment or
while en- route? Please give the per-
son in charge of the contingent IN
structiOns that liquor is forbidden and
ask him TO confiscate all liquor found
in the possession of the men In his
charge. We are calling the attention
of railway officials to section 1865 or
the Wisconsin statutes fOrbidding pub
lie drinking of intoxicating liquors on
trains and authorizing conductors to
cOntiscate liquor found on the train"
No white drafted men Of Wisconsin
probably will be ordered to camp this
month.
