OUTING CLUB TO-
 BUILD CLUB HOUSE

The Williams Outing Club, which has been planning on erecting a club house and in- stalling boats and other pleas ure paraphernalia at Coleman lake, expects to begin work on it's house in about a week. The lumber is to be cut ready for erection, at the Saginaw and then carted out to the lake and quickly erected by the mem bers of the club. The member ship of the club is limited to ten because it was felt that Iarg- CT club would necessitate too large a building and too much equipment to handle conven- iently. "
 The club expects to install a row boat, a duck boat and pos sibly a launch in the near fu- ture. Boating and duck hunt ing will be their main pleas ures at the lake this season, but they hope to add fishing and bathing to this list in the near future.

CLEANUP INSTRUCTIONS
 FREQUENTLY IGNORED

The instructions given by the Town health officer, pr. lief fries, at the instigation of the Town Council, prescribed that the tin cans. and rubbish that should be removed by the Town teams, should first be placed in boxes or other receptacles, that the teamsters might not be de- layed by being forced to rake up and shovel up the cans and other trash. This was given as a requirement that would have to be complied with or else the cans would not be removed by the Town.
 In a great many cases the ruling was carefully complied with. In others, cans and trash were raked up in pile and left in the yard while in yet others the cans were not even piled

up. For the sake of a cleaner town, Street Commissioner, Kirkpatrick had the teams clean up the trash in all cases where it could be reached. This made much extra work for the Town teams, but now, with the work practically completed the town may be said to be'the cleanest ever.
 However, Councilman Kirk patrick states that he will not continue this policy, but anoth- CT time will insist that the in- structions be carefully compli- ed with. Otherwise the rub bish will be left to be removed at individual expense.
 This is a very reasonable re- quest as the Town is in no way required to remove any of the trash. Instead, Che law would require individuals to keep their premises clean and sani- tary, at their own expense.

WANT S3,0O0,000 FOR
 ARMY '. M. |. A. WORK

Approaching the great bene- fit of the work done by the Y. M. c. A. for the Militia while on the border, and of the work that has been done on the bat tie fields of Europe, both gov ernment officials and army off cers are urging that this work be launched immediately for the benefit of the great army that is soon to be raised in the United States. The Y. M. c. A. spent $350,000 and employed one hundred and fifty secretar- ies in carrying on it's work among the guards. It is esti- mated that $3,O0O,OOO will be needed to carry on the work in the training camps for the pres ent year. Of this amount, Tex as, New Mexico and Arizona, will be expected to raise $15,- 900.
 Lord Nortcliffe in an article in the Saturday Evening Post in the issue of April 28, says, Referring to the boy who makes up the army, has it ever occurred to you that he must be amused? He must have mov- ing pictures, talking machines, books, magazines, home news papers, each of them occupying valuable tonnage in ships. The Y. M. c. A. looks after most of these and does it wonderfully we'll"
 To carry on this work in America, a war council compos- ed of one hundred representa- tive business men in the United States, has been formed. Geo. w. Perkins has accepted the chairmanship and Cleveland Dodge has been made treasur- CT.
 Thus far solicitations have been made mainly from the banks over the country, includ- ing the local bank, and all have responded most literally, as al- so have a number of corpora tions and individuals.

for Williams should run at near $12,0O0. Of this amount $2.- 300 has already been subscrib- ed for, during the first five banking days that the loan has been before the people. Six teen persons have thus far sub scribed, in amounts ranging from $50 to $1,000. The daily totals for the first five days run as follows: $20O, $1O0, ST. 500, $500, $500. A number of those who will take the largest loans have applications under consideration but have not yet turned them in. However, the applications for smaller sums are held of greater importance than the larger, just at present, for two reasons: First, they are an indication that all the people are back of the Presi- dent, and in the second place. they start people of small means to investing their savings in a way that is entirely safe It is anticipated that during the coming week nearly all of Will Hams allotment will be sub scribed for.
 l. The calls for financial assist ance that have thus far been re- ceived in Williams have receiv- ed a ready and generous re- sponse. The Y. M.sC. A. has asked for help and hasreceived all that it asked for, by return mail. The State Council of De fense asked for $200 from Will Hams and received more than that amount, at once. Other requests for aid in good causes have met with like response.

CAR LOAD OF STUDS
 DISTRIBUTED FRIDAY

A car load of seed potatoes arrived in Williams last Friday, for distribution among the ranchers who needed more tu- bers for planting. The car was shipped to the Williams State Bank, and was turned over to the Development Association to be distributed among the farmers.
 MT. Harold Greene, president of the Association, appointed MT. R. c. Wente as a committee of one to take charge of weigh ing and parcelling out the pota- toes. Assisted by Harry Me- Dougall, MT. Wente put in a strenuous day disposing of the spuds.
 The car was a fifty thousand pound one, and the entire SUD- ply was disposed of for cash. It was found that more spuds were still needed, but not enough to make up another car load. Rabbits volunteered to supply a few hundred more sacks if needed, and arrange ments were made to have addi- tional orders left with MT. Spellmire, at Babbitt-Polson's.
 MT. Spellmire has disposed of more than a hundred addi- tional sacks since Friday, and states that he can take care of additional orders if left with him at once. Where for seed purposes, these will be supplied at actual cost, as heretofore.

Registration day, June 5th, will be fittingly observed in Williams with the Red Cross in charge of the ceremonies. MT. w. M. Hughes heads the com mittee on arrangements and is busily occupied in making ar engagements. Red Cross tags will be offered for sale, and everyone will be expected to wear a tag. An indoor pro- gram with music and speaking will be held either in the after noon or evening, and other demonstrations of patriotism will probably be arranged for. Fuller details including the pro- gram for the day, will be pub lished next week.
 The Red Cross tags will be sold but the committee does not expect to ask a set price for them. Each person will be ex- pected to pay according to his or her means. All of the mon ey thus secured will be used to

CAN STRIKE U.S..
FROM MEXICO
Over 300 German Officers
Have Gone There During
Last Two Weeks

Providence, r. l., Feb. 0. - The
Providence Journal says this morn
ing:
IF Germany succeeds in dragging
the United States into war her first
blow against this country will be
struck through Mexico. For the past
two weeks the German Ambassador
working among his own Consulates all
over the United States as well as those
of Austria-Hungary has been super
intending the departure of over three
hundred officers of the German army,
both regulars and reservists, from
various American ports and railroad d
centers to Mexico City, where orders
governing their future activities will
await them.
1T has not been generally known
that a large number of German army
officers who have been captured by the
Russians during the present war and
have made their way here at various
times through China have been held in
this country without any attempt be-
ing made to smuggle them back home
The Department of Justice has had
information for several months that
several of these officers have been
with both Villa and Carranza in Mex
leo. Since last Saturday there has
been wholesale exodus of those that
have remained to Mexico, and at least
two hundred officers of reservists
have accompanied them or gone in
small parties at various routes to the
same ultimate destination.
THE government is in possession of
information to the effect that a large
quantity of arms and ammunition col
lected here at the beginning of the
war and stored in two large ware
houses in New York has found its way
to Mexico City, where it has been held
intact since its arrival. Some months
ago a long German consular report
was sent from Mexico City to the For
eig1 Office in Berlin by way of G..
Schadt, an employe fthe German
Embassy at IL Broadway, New York,
under seal to f. Gernsdorf, Marten-
sale, Copenhagen, Denmark
This communication, a COPY of
which has just been received in this
country, goes into the conditions in
Mexico from the German point of
view very fully and declares that
what is known as the German alliance
in Mexico is supporting every effort
to increase the hatred against Ameri-
cans in that country by inaugurating
a series of German gatherings in be-
half of Mexican nationalities mixing
socially with prominent Mexican lead
ers and flooding the country with
pamphlets Of pro-German character"

many's declaration of war zones and
the menace to neutrals, he said:
This is the first definite step that
brings us nearer peace. 1t looks like
the beginning of the end. Up till now
many thought the outcome of the war
might be a drawn game, but now the
German government, recognizing ap-
preaching economic exhaustions and
the growing scarcity of supplies, has
become desperate and is resorting to
desperate measures. Seeing no other
hope of success, it is throwing over
every remaining restraint of law and
proclaiming its contempt of neutral
opinion.
