PATRIOTIC
Meeting

Another patriotic meeting was held
in the Amusement Hall, Friday night,
and was largely attended. Colonel
J. A. Watrous, the speaker of the
evening, was escorted from the hote!
to the Amusement Hall, headed by the
Grand Rapids band and the Cavalry
Troop boys. At the Amusement Hall,
the speaker of the evening was intro
duced to the audience by Captain r.
NJ. Gibson He addressed the audi
ence first, along the line of patriotism
and the seriousness of the war with
Germany. He urged the people of
Grand Rapids to lend their support to
the President, the Regular U. S. Ar
nv, the National Guard and the Navy,
in the defense of our country. Col
onel Watrous talked about IS or 20
minutes along this line, after which
ne presented the subject of the Y. NJ.
c.. A. and what this organization was
preparing to do. Wisconsin is to raise
one hundred thousand dollars to assist
in the national work Of installing Z.
NJ. C. A. buildings adjacent to the mil
itary camps inthis country. To pro-
vide places of rest, recreation and a.
musement for the boys that are in
camp. His talk was very interesting
and he made the subject matter per-
fectly clear to his large audience af-
ter which subscriptions were received
for this fund. He urged everyone to
do what they could to help along this
line and anyone who decided to con-
tribute to this fund, no matter how
small the amount could be left with
Earle M. Pease, at the First Natl.
Bank who would receipt for the same
and account for it to the proper party.

WISCONSIN CAN
FURNISH 900

Madison, Wis, May 29.-According
to figures in the office of the State
Council of Defense, Wisconsin must
furnish 700 physicians for its quota
under the CONSUMPTION act which will
call 100000 troops into the field. There
are in this state $500 licensed physi-
clans and it is estimated that 1000 of
these would be able to take care of
the actual practice.
Anticipating the need Of physicians,
the State Medical Society began sew
eral months ago an investigation thru
out the state and in report filed with
the State Council it is stated that 500
doctors are either in some branch of
the service or are ready to go.
A plan has been suggested where
by physicians in Wisconsin will be
asked to pledge that for any work he
does for the patient of physician who
is at the front he will turn one-third

JOY riding
EXPENSIVE

Some of the young men IN Grand
Rapids are becoming altogether too
fresh in taking automobiles without
the owners permission to go joy-ridlng
In the law this is theft. Two young
men Orliff Doughty and John HOppa
took Arthur Rockwood's Ford automo
bile which was standing in front Of
Brandt's Meat Market on Second
street south Saturday night about
o'clock and drove it to Meehan Station
where a dance was in progress. At
that point John Hoppa got out of the
car and went to the dance while Or
Tiff Doughty with his brother Archie
in the company of two young ladies
went to Stevens Point for joy-ride
and outing.
When Mr.. lockwood missed his car
he notified the Sheriff's office and they
Immediately got busy and found the
boys at Meehan as reported. They
were obliged to wait there till 2 O.
CLOCK IN Inc mOTuluS Witch Cu6 DOuSh-
ty boys returned with the ladies to
Meehan station On their arrival
there, they were arrested and the Sher
if and his deputy brought them back
with the car and incarcerated them in
Jail.
The young men who took the car had
their hearing this morning before
Judge Calkins and waved examination
and were committed until such time
as they could be brought before the
Judge of the Circuit court where they
will plead guilty to the offense and
probably will ask for leniency from
the court Archie Doughty was not
involved in any way in taking the car,
but was simply invited to take ride
without knowing that the car had been
taken unlawfully by the other two
young men. He was therefor not ar
rested as he had no part in the often

the necessary appropriation
The law which was known as the
Bray bill and which gives county
boards the right to appropriate money
for county councils of defense.
The law which appropriates funds
for the organization of Red Cross
work and the establishing of system
Of intensified training for nurses.
The Wilcox bill which creates what
is known as the civilian army.
The law which gives the state coun-
ell the right to take over food stuffs
and other necessities of life when it
is decided that prices are being mani
pulated SO that they are burdensome
to the people and are leading to posi-
bilities of food panic.
To carry out the provisions of these
laws and properly perform it's func-
lions the state council has organized
the following statewide committees af-
ter much study of the situation.
The committee on recruiting and
patriotic organizations.
The committee on conservation and

WHERE IS
THE Niger?

Last winter and early spring pre-
liminary steps were taken for White
Way. The committee who were au-
thorized to make all preparations for
it, did so. They received the necessary
signers of the property holders on our
principal streets and the common
council endorsed and authorized the
installation of the same. Bids were
to be asked for and everybody suppos-
ed the White Way would be establish
ed before this. What's the matter?

good reason for it? All those inter-
ested are wondering, why? Who can

sentee. This is considered fair on the
ground that the physician who stays
at home should help share the burden
of war.
It is impossible to tell how many
doctors will be called upon to go from
to the front but the number
may be more than 700.
