DEMONSTRATION MEETIN GS.

Owing to the fact that the roads have
been in poor condition thus preventing
the county agent from holding some of
the demonstrations heretofore scheduled
and due also to the fact that state
wide county agent conference is to be
held the 18th and 18th of April, the
dates for the demonstration meetings
are to be changed as follows.
The following meetings are to be held
in mixing chemicals, during the coming

PRICE OF MILK RAISED.

Beginning last Monday milk dealers
raised the price of milk to 8 cents a
quart. This is due they say to the
high cost of grain and feed. The milk
companies in New York have also
raised their price and are paying
more for their milk here at the yas
milk station. !.
Until conditions are such that the
cost of the production of milk is lowered,
the local milk dealers feel that they
must get cents quart for their milk.

A Lucky Escape.

(From the New York Times.)
Admiral Sims advised the navy de
partment that Germany knew OF
the dispatch of American destroyers
to British waters four days before
their arrival and made use of the
knowledge to mine the waters Of the
port at which they arrived fortunate
ly without doing any damage. Sec
rotary Daniels on the eve of recon
sideration Of censorship proposals in
congress uses this occasion to remind
the newspapers of the need of extreme
vigilance in preventing news of mill
tary value from reaching the enemy.
Right, Mr.. Secretary! The news
papers were well aware of the de-
parture of the destroyers, and with
one exception, and in the absence Of
any censorship law, Loyalty refrain
ed from publishing any thing about
it. We, in turn, venture to urge, as
we have frequently urged before, the
need Of extreme vigilance on the part
Of the government in guarding it's
own military secrets. Government
control over the outgoing cable and
other messages was established on
May A, the date Of the arrival of our
destroyers at British port. Had it
been established a week earlier and
efficiency maintained, Germany could
not have had this advance informa-
ton. Yet as early as April 2 we
pointed out to Secretary Daniels the
need of this control and endeavored
to show him that this, and not news
paper censorship, was the only real
means of keeping military informu-
ton from the enemy. We repeated
this suggestion more than once, but
the government waited full month,
meanwhile demanding a newspaper
censorship law, before it took the
necessary action on its own account.
The bboes caught in the railroad
yard in West Owosso were given 80
days on the road, Monday by Justice
Fricgle, two others were released and
one escaped although Officer Kinney
attempted to stop him by firing at
him. i

THE LIBERTY LOAN.
From the Chicago Tribune.

(From the Chicago Tribune.)
Everywhere in France you see tn
notice: "S-s-sh! The enemy is list
ening," or French to that effect, ant
we suggest for America the notice
"Dig up! The enemy is watchingn
We should post it wherever Libert,
bonds are on sale. We should keel
it there. We should hope that Amer
leans would heed it.
Seven million pairs of German
eyes are focused on the Liberty loan
If it fails, 100000 German heart:
will rejoice. They are longing fol
just that. 1t will prove to Germany
that America never meant business
1t will prove it to our Allies. What is
worse, it will prove it to us. Germany
intends that it shall. Her whole
course in dealing with us this fan
clearly indicates it.
BY Germany's delicate design the
war has thus far been uninteresting
because eventless, Americans expect
ed attack-from within, or from
Mexico, or from the sea. None came.
That was part of the plan. Germany
has learned from England's behavior
that frightfulness adds MILLIONS of
men to an army, millions Of money to
a loan. Hence no frightfulness for
America. Instead, state Of war
curiously resembling state of peace.
1t has been a most successful plan.
Whereas Germany measures her
strength by the rapidity with which a
loan is taken up and whereas Eng
land and France do the same, we
permit the foe to measure our weak
ness by our unintelligent, unpatriotic
reluctance to dig up. The trap is
set. We are walking into it, while
the foe looks on and chuckles.
Few, indeed, are the Americans
who will passively lend the same aid,
the same comfort. Through indol-
ence or stupidity or both, they neglect
to subscribe. If the loan fails it will
fail because of them. It's failure will
dishearten our Allies, dishearten
America, and greatly hearten Ger
many. Unless Americans dig up with
more vivacity than they have been
displayed hitherto we may find our
selves composing far more spirited
notice than the one suggested above.
Keep your money, and help the
Kaiser.

The pleasant home Of Mr.. and Mrs

Death of Charles Lawrence

Charles Lawrence, one of Owosso I
best known pioneers, passed away al
his home, at 401 N. Shiawassee street
Tuesday afternoon after an illness OF
pneumonia and resulting heart trob.
lie. He was able to sit. up and after
[reading awhile Tuesday afternoon
laid down to rest and passed quietly
away.
Mr.. Lawrence had resided in Owos-
so for nearly half a century. Born in
Reading, England, 50 years ago, he
came with his parents to st. Thorn
as, Ont, when boy of ten, and grew
up there. He was married on June
2, 1865, to Miss Mary E. Sells, at st.
Thomas, and four years later they
moved to Owosso.
When he first came to Owosso,
Mr.. Lawrence clerked in the store of
Osburn & Sons and later went into
the retail grocery business. His bus
mess expanded rapidly and later he
launched wholesale grocery bust
ness which he conducted until the
financial reverses came to him during
the panic of 1893. He had always
been proud, however, that he paid.
every dollar of indebtedness in those
troubled times.
In 1896 Mr.. Lawrence, always a
staunch Democrat, was appointed
postmaster by President Cleveland
and served until 1900 when he was
succeeded by E. o. Dewey. Since that
time he had lived life of retire
ment, happy among his flowers and
in his garden that he loved SO well
and that was always a model. Be
fore he was taken i'll two weeks ago,
he planted his garden, and during his
illness, he longed to get back to work
in it.
Mr.. Lawrence had a characteristic
English trait Of bluntness and to
strangers seemed gruff, but to those
who knew him best, he was tender
kindly man, whose thoughts
we're always of others. Even while
ne was sick, he thought not of him
'elf, but of Mrs. Lawrence and other
Of the family.
Mr.. Lawrence was a deep student,
md had vast store of knowledge
IN nearly every subject, which he, had
lcquired by diligent study since he
eft school when but IL years old.
lie had watched the war moves very
loosely and was familiar with every
place in the war zone. He
vas also a lover Of birds and flowers
nd peculiarly. enough on the night
efore he died, he dreamed that be
ad been called to another land of
eautiful trees and flowers. He told
1embers of the family of this dream
My few hours before he died.
The deceased was formerly a men,
err, of the Masons,--and for many
ears. had been.a faithful attendant
f the Baptist church. He served
lany years as alderman of the first {
ard and was twice a candidate for
layor on the democratic ticket.
Surviving him are his widow and
our children, Fred of Republic, \
Iich.; Frank, of Detroit, and Misses !
lay and Emma Lawrence, living at :
ONE. Two grand children also sur
i've.
The funeral was held from the res
lence Wednesday afternoon at 800 y
clock, Rev. H. A. Waite officiating. =

Your Chance and My Chance.


A Liberty Loan Bond Is certificate
Of Americanism. No American family
should be without one.
We have talked our patriotism for
many years. you and l. we have cheered
the Flag and cheered the boys who left
us to fight and to die for the Flag. but
deep in our hearts many of us know
that we have never done an actual
deed of worth to prove our patriotism.
The Liberty Loan bond is patriotic
opportunity. It is a chance for rs to
be American. We are pledged to the
cause of humanity, but that pledge is
empty If we make no sacrifice for the
cause You can buy q Liberty Bond
for one dollar week. Every time you
make payment to your country You
will feel bigger and better; you will re.
joice in the thought, that although you
are miles away from the great conflict,
safe and comfortable, you are still part
of the Big Work that lie to be done.
You are contributing something to the
Flag. Your much or your little is rep.
resented on the field of honor. / have
bought books, photograph. . piano,
and home on the instsllment plan.
Now am making payments on Lib
erty Bonds, and next to that for the
home, I count them the finest obliga.
ton have ever assumed.
Will you not invest some Of your
money In Americanism2
Will you not back the Stars and
Stripes with few dollsrsf
Will you not give your wife and your
little ones the glorious joy of knowing
that they have husband and father
who is doing his share in His Countrys
battle for freedom for all peoples
The Liberty Loan Bond is your
chance and.my chance to be American
in fact as well as in talk
The Liberty Loan Bend Family is
Big One. But it will not be as big as
it could be without YOU.
Will you not join us NQw2
