S100 To Be Donated.

Last week certain citizen of this
city purchased from me suit of wool
underwear at @946. A short time af.
terwards he compared it with one that
his neighbor had purchased before my
sale at SO 90. He then circulated the
report that had charged him 4Sc more
ut sale price than his neighbor had paid
before the sale-or in other words we
had advanced the price instead of low
ering it.
The facts of the matter is this very
man was shown the same garment as
his neighbor had purchased at good
deal less than SO 90, but he preferred
the better garment.
Now, l will donate 500 to any church
in this city il there is not the exact diff.
terence in the two garments as repre-
sented, and will leave it to the decision
of any woolen mill man of repute.

But ALL MOVED AWAY
With Closing of Postoffice There

Laprairie.

Grand Rapids. Mich.-Final steps in
the dissolution of Laprairie were taken
when Eugene Arnold, postmaster, sent
in his final reports and locked the doors
Of the office for the last time. Village
organization long since has been dis
continued.
With the removal of the name from

Laprairie as village will become only
memory
In the early history Of that portion
of the state Laprairie because Of it's
location at the junction of the Missis-
sippi and Prairie river became the
largest town in its territory.
In the days when the logging indus
try was at it's height and the rollicking
lumberjacks of the old type were going

prairie was roaring" town, with a
population fuctuating between 1000
and 5000. Millions of feet of logs were
driven past it both on the Mississippi
and the Prairie.
But it was not long before men with
foresight recognized the latent power
Of the Mississippi grand rapids several
miles mp stream. Grand Rapids was
born. Slowly the lusty new town
sapped the vitality Of the old. business
changed its hunting place, and many
of the buildings were moved. Then
came the courthouse contest. which re-
suited in the establishment Of the
county's business at Grand Rapids.
Since then Laprairie's decline has
been rapid. And so Mr.. Arnold, the
towns chief booster. after locking the
door of the old postoffice building,
crossed the road, once the principal
street Of the village. to his little white
cottage thereafter to devote his time to
the cultivation of his small farm. which
comprises the greater portion of the
town site.

Plans for the participation of the
American fleet in the naval operations
Of the entente powers are expected to
materialize very shortly as a result OF

allies.
OF immediate concern is q scheme

tic, the Caribbean and perhaps the wa.
tiers surrounding South America, thus
relieving the British and French YES
sells which have been engaged in this
work for duty around the British Isles
and in the Mediterranean.
1t is further proposed that the Unit.
ed States fleet will undertake to guard
a part of the main lanes Of travel be-
tween this country and Europe.
Ultimately, should it become neces.
sary for the American navy to partici.
pate actively in operations on the other

merous communications from former
athletes between fifty and sixty years
old asking If there was not some branch
OF the service where they could be use
full. In the event Of war it will be
necessary to guard railroads, bridges
and munition factories, and many men
past military age believe that they can
get into good enough physical shape to
perform these duties.
The league will not be limited to col
lege men, but will be open to all men be-
tween the ages of forty-fve and sixty.
Mr.. Camp has mapped out course of
training, which he believes will be ef-
f1cient and yet will not interfere with
the members routine business duties.
The squad which went into training at
New Haven will give up one morning
hour a day at first--from s to 9-to
walking and other exercises, which Mr..
Camp will suggest. The plan is to take
only light exercise at first, gradually
working the men into shape until they
are able to tramp fifteen or twenty
miles day without fatigue.
In the manufacturing cities such as
New Haven and, in fact, all over New
England, there will be great amount
OF guard duty to perform, and Mr..
Camp believes that if the older men,
who have already shown much enthusi-
as1asm to do their "bit," can be worked
up to proper physical condition the mi
litia will be relieved Of much of this
home guard duty.
After the league gets under way in
New Haven it is expected that the
movement will be taken up quickly
throughout the country.

posed chiefly of former athletes be-

is being organized by Walter Camp,
Yale's football adviser, for homie guard
duty in the event of war. Mr.. Camp
announced that the league would be
organized at New Haven, when he will
start a body of prominent New Haven
business and professional men in a
course of physical training. The league
has been started by Mr.. Camp at the
request of many former college ath-
letes who are over military age, but
who are desirous of performing some
kind Of guard duty which ordinarily
would have to be performed by the mi

available for more important duties.
