they advanced fifteen miles and cap
tured I2O guns and 1900 prisoners.
Later they withstood Teutonic
assaults which continued for seven
teen successive days.
The crumbling of Russia has been
a keen disappointment to the Rou-
manian people, the minister con-
tinued, and the breach with the
bolsheviEd has become acute, but
Roumania stands firm and will not
entertain the thought of a separate
peace.

WAR TALK
DIR. Crooks of Alma College Gave
Address at East Minister Chapel.

The Pastor Rev. Grierson, on behalf
of the Parents Club of East Alma,
introduced the speaker of the even
ing, DR.. Crooks, Pres. of Alma Col
lege.
The Doctors talk was listened to
with rapt attention. AS boy study
ing History war was always the
theme. Later, historians told of the
progress of peoples. Tremendous
progress is being made along many
lines in this present world war. Look
at the social, medical, educational,
religious and international progress
being made from day to day
DR.. Crooks illustrated very clearly
the wickedness of the aims of Ger
many in contrast with the allies.
America and her allies will surely
win the war but it means hard work
and sacrifice. The compelling needs
of Red Cross work were emphasized.
The talk abounded with a wealth
of fresh ideas and high ideals, and
was safe, sane and practical
The meeting accorded the doctor a
most cordial vote of thanks for his
splendid address. Do not miss the
next meeting which will be announced
in these pages very soon.

Councils Expected to Act and Submit
Proposition to Voters at the
Election this Spring.

At a conference of representatives
of the cities of St. Louis and Alma
and the villages of Ithaca and Breck-
enridge, on Monday evening, March
4th, at the city court room in St
Louis, there were present:
Representing Alma d. w. Adams
Ezra Smith and Floyd Glass.
Representing st. Louise. f. At

and Otto May.
Representing Breckenridge -
Charles Watson, Arthur Stetzler and
Columbus Shepherd.
Representing Ithaca-R. K. Petit
C. +. Walter, Charles Kernen and
j. T. Mathews.
After listening to Mr.. Wagner
representative of Gratiot County Gas
Company, who explained that on ac-
count of the advanced price of labor
materials and coal, the company is
unable to do business at the present
meter rates; and that unless relief
is granted the company must face
consequent inconvenience and loss.
A very strong support was fur
nished to Mr.. Wagner's argument
by reading of letters and messages
from President Wilson, and the Sec
retary of the Treasury and Controller
of Currency.
After very full discussion lasting
hours, the following action was un-
animously taken:
Moved by Mr.. May, seconded by
Ezra Smith, that it is the sense and
conclusion of this conference, that we
recommend to the councils and citi-
zens of the several municipalities here
represented, the adoption of an ordi-
nance, authorizing the Gratiot County
Gas Company to charge for gas a
rate based upon a sliding scale in
proportion to the price of coal. To be
determined as follows: Sl.25 net price
per 1000 Gu. fl. of gas when coal +
O. b. mines costs Sl.20 per ton. 712c
additional per 1000 Gu. #. as coal
shall advance, for each S1.00 per ton
advance, and proportionally for less
advance. The maximum price to be
S1.40 per 1000 Gu. it. And that said
Gas Company shall reduce said price
inversely to the above as the price of
coal shall decline. Such price shall
be fixed in periods Of three months
The price for three months period
to be fixed by arriving at the average
price of coal during the Immediately
preceding period of three months.

VENUE MOTION
WAS DEFEATED
Circuit Judge MOinet Ruled
Against Albert EichOrn on
Petition.
DECISION CAME YESTERDAY
Motion for Continuance Asked by
Defense Granted-Case Set For
April.

1t was assured yesterday that the
trial of Albert Eichorn, for the mur-
der of Miss Beatrice Epler on the
night of September 4, 1917, would
take place in Gratiot county, when
Circuit Judge E. J. Monet denied
the motion of the defense for a
change of venue.
The motion of the defense for the
change of venue was filed last Thurs
day, and Monday the arguments pro
and con between the defense and the
prosecution were started and con-
tinued through Tuesday, being fin
ished just before court adjourned for
the day.
The defense had maintained that
it should not get fair and impartial
trial in Gratiot county because of
the widespread newspaper publicity
which had been given the case, which
the defense claimed had worked up a
sentiment against Albert Eichorn
1t was also claimed that the ex-
pense of trying the case in this
county would be too great. 1t was
set forth that because of the public
ity given the case, it would be neces-
sary to call hundreds before jury
could be secured, entailing a great
expense, which might be avoided if
the case were tried in another county.
Petitions supported the views of the
defense.
The prosecution came back with
petitions to keep the case in Gratiot
for trial and showed a far greater
number of names. The prosecution
maintained that fair trial could be
secured in the county and convinced
the Judge in the matter evidently.
The victory of the prosecution was
soon dimmed by a score for the de-
tense, when a motion was made for
a continuance and it was granted
until the April term of court, starting
about the middle Of the month. The
defense asked for a continuance on
the grounds of the illness of Ray
Wilkinson, manager of the Union
Telephone company at Ithaca, who
the defense claims is an important
witness in the case for Albert
Eichorn.

is ENLARGED
Gaffney Style Shop Has Been Greatly
Improved and Enlarged.

Mrs. Sylvia Gaffney, who owns the
Gaffney Style Shop on South State
street, and for years has been one of
the leading business women of the
city, has greatly enlarged the style
parlors, re-decorated the rooms, and
increased the stock greatly, with a
view of giving her patrons the great
est variety and choice of goods pos
sible.
She is another OF the far-sighted
business people of Alma, who sees an
ever increasing demand for wearing
apparel here, and steps out to be
ready for the coming growth of the
city, which the past few years indi-
Gates is a certainty.
In enlarging the style shop Mrs.
Gaffney has taken over the room which
was formerly occupied by the West
ern Union Telegraph company, and
has re-decorated this store and the
other store, just to the north.
The millinery department of the
store, under the management of Miss
Ruth Shirk of Chicago, has been
moved from the north room into the
south room of the building and this
room is devoted exclusively to this
department. Several new and beauti-
full show cases have been installed,
which permit much better display
of the millinery goods which are car
ried, and aid greatly in the looks of
this department. New and beautiful
rugs cover the floor in both stores.
The north store is being devoted to
the balance of the style shop, in
which may be found everything that a
woman may be in need of, from head
to foot, except for shoes and hats.
Shoes are about the only thing in the
line Of women's apparel which is not
carried by this hustling store.
Mrs. Gaffney has been in business
here for about ten years now and by
constant attention TO the details of
the business has gradually worked up
fine patronage and today has one of
the incest stores in the city.

That news that Alma had defeated
Kazoo on their home floor, which
reached here Sunday, was Sweet
music to our ears" There was not a
trace of over-confdence, perhaps not
even of confidence among the team
as they started on the trip last week
end. But there was a determined
spirit of fight which makes any Alma
team a dangerous one.
Quite elated over their 1922 vic
tory over Olivet Of the night pre-
vious, the team went into Saturday
nights game with Kalamazoo with a
punch that made them victors in
spite of a few difficulties such as a
referee of questionable merit, a
strange floor, and a hostile crowd.
1t was fast game and featured
good passing on the part of both
teams. Alma was slightly superior
to Kazoo in this respect which prob
ably accounts for the victory af the
Maroon and Cream. Richards came
back with his old fight and led the
team in field baskets. Anderson has
been developing into a great often
sive player of late and reached his
best form in this game. If Fay keeps
improving he will make a wonderful
basketball man. It is a safe state
ment to make that Smith covers
more floor than any other player in
the NJ. I. A. A. The captain was on
the run every minute and played a
spectacular game, TO say the least.
Medler and Mills played a splendid
defensive game and were important
parts of Alma's four men defense
which is one Of Coach Helmer's best
inventions in athletics.

High School Cadets Gave Good Drill
St. Louis Five Won Game.

! High school night, celebrated in the
high school gym last evening with a
military drill exhibition by the Alma
high school cadets and the st. Louis
Alma high basketball game, gave a
! fine evenings entertainment, but the
high school basketball game did not
come up to expectations as St. Louis
mired Alma under with a count of "a
to IL.
The military drill by the high school
cadets was the feature of the even
ing, the seventy-odd cadets going
through the PAGES like bunch of
veterans, showed clearly the work
that Drillmaster John c. Chick has
gone through in the past few months
in forming this company.
Frank Notestein had charge of the
drilling of the cadets, and he put
them through all of the work in
which they have been instructed so
far. The exhibition was highly pleas
ing to the large audience, as it in
dicated that the lads are being better
| trained than some companies of the
former national guard were, before
they were merged in the national
army.
Mr.. Chick deserves a great deal of
credit for the work that he has done
with the lads. 1t is through his
efforts in interesting others that the
cadets have been promised Springfield
army rifles in the very near future,
which will be supplied by the war de-
/ partment
The basketball game was the sad
feature of the evening, as the St.
Louis high school team walked off
with an easy victory to the tune of
