THREE SERVICE FLAGS
PRESENTED BY CLUB

Three service flags are to adorn
the center of the Main street in Ord
way, the handiwork of the Thursday
Afternoon Club, of this city, and pre-
scented. one to the city, one to the
county and the other to the Crowley
county chapter, A. r. c. The hags
were to have been presented at a
time when they could be raised at a
public gathering, but owing to the
Influenza epidemic and no meetings
permitted, the presentation has been
made in each case with a letter from
the club to the recipient organiza-
tions. Following is the general letter
in presentation sent with the flags:
Someone, sometime, conceived the
idea of the service flags, and a beauti-
full 1T is. While the colors are
the same and emblematic of the same
sentiments as those of our national
flag, yet there is an individuality
about the service flag that makes it
dear to us. 1t stands for something
definite. We think of the individual
man represented by the star on our
service flags, of those who have gone
from our own town and county.
There is another flag that may fit
tingly float between these two service
flags, the emblem of the Red Cross,
and 1t, too, bears its service star.
Never in the history of the world has
there been an organization SO COM
plete, SO wise in its administration, so
farreaching in its york.
1t preceded our army overseas, 1t
is with them on the field of action, it
cares for them behind the lines, and
even follows them to the prison camps
of Germany, and ministers to them
there.
Our young women in this service
represent the highest type of Ameri-
can womanhood, and like the soldiers,
they offer their lives, a sacrifice. How
insignificant then. seem any sacrifices
that we may make, the giving up Of
sugar, wheat and money!
May these flags serve as constant
reminder to US. to carry on. at home,
as they are doing overseas.
Trusting that we may always look
upon these flags with reverence, and
that they may always be an inspira-
tion to US. the Thursday Afternoon
Club members present three flags;
one service flag to the town Of Ord
way, one to Crowley county. and the
emblem of the Red Cross, to the
Crowley county chapter of the Ameri-
can Red Cross.

Roscoe c. Simmons, the speaker, was
given an ovation when introduced. He
delivered an address For being late
he said it was due to the fact that he
had to stop to look at the building and
he was proud that he did, because he
was a Negro from top to bottom. He
said that the building represented
brains and money combined, both in
possession of the Malones. To build
up great race, great institution, you
must have the combination Of brains
and money. This is great accom-

There were many interesting features
connected with the day at Poro. It
opened with Thanksgiving services in
the auditorium presided over by Mrs.
Malone in fact this is the service that
she had charge Of and in which she
seemingly entered with her whole soul
and heart. She had many things for
which she was thankful, among them
being an opportunity to serve. She
liked to serve and to her it was source
of pleasure all the time. She read the
scripture lesson in keeping with the
occasion. 5a

Red Cross Sale

It'll be held on Wednesday evening.
June II, at the Auditorium. Col. E. l..
Powers will be the auctioneer and, as
usual, will make things hum. Incl
dentally he will introduce a little of the
spice of life into the business. In order
to make this sale success everybody
must come and almost everybody must
give something to be sold. Everybody
can rummage around a bit and find
some sort of duffie they would like to
unload on some one else. Col. Powers
will do it to the queens taste and turn
little money over to the Red Cross at
the same time. Philanthropists and
bargain hunters can meet on the level
at this sale and anybody can throw any
blame or anything else at the auction
eer. Don't forget the date and don't
forget to attend and to give something
to be sold. Remember the proceeds go
for the comfort of our boys who are
suffering and dying for our sake on
blood stained fields across the sea.

Decoration Day in Clio
Yours very truly.
p. Z. White.

The program given in Clio on Decor
alton Day was very fine throughout.
The musical features by the High
School Chorus and by the little folks of
Mrs. Beckwith's room were charming.
Miss Veola Clifford gave reading, ''The
Man With the Little Bronze Button, "
in superb style and graciously respond
ed to an encore. The work of the Clio
Brass Band also elected much praise.
Hon. Guy Selby, of Flint, gave mas
terly address, in which due tribute was
paid to the soldiers of '6l to '65 and in
spiration was given to sustain our peo-
pie in the great struggle for liberty in
which they are now engaged. The
citizens committee elected for 1919
consists of B. E. Conlee, chairman, and

A Big Condenser

The Clio condensery unloaded this
week huge copper vacuum pan which
will be added to the equipment of the
local factory. This is big, alright
cooker, to use plain terms, where the
fresh milk is condensed for shipment
and for evaporation. 1t is duplicate
of one already in use and will practical
ly double the capacity of the conden-
sery. The big pan weighs four tons
and the problem of getting it off a
freight car at the interurban siding and
into the factory was perplexing. 1t
was solved by turning the job over to
the Owosso Truck Company, a concern
which makes specially of heavy haul
ing, which did the job very successfully.
The pan will be put into operation in
the near future.

Women in the War by Lloyd
George

"The women of this country are
young yet in suffering. They do not
know what it means to have their
homes destroyed, their children lost or
killed before their eyes, or driven into
slavery by the Germans. They do not
know how it feels to huddle in a cellar
all night, expecting a bomb every mo-
ment to fall on the building over their
heads. They do not have to stand in
line long hours in heat and in rain wait
ing for meagre ration CT food, and
then sometimes to find they have wait
ed in vain and go home empty handed
and hungry. Whether or not they will
have to endure this depends upon the
manner in which they use the food sup
ply now." Lloyd George, of England, is
responsible for this statement, and it
comes after four years of war exper-
ience: "Only 25 per cent of the final
victory will be due to the army and
navy, brave and wonderful as their
feats may be. The larger part will be
due to the courage, endurance and sup
rene unselfshness of those behind the
lines.
