Liberty Loan
Now Closed
Rural Districts Came Strong in
the Third Drive.

The close of the Third Liberty Loan
drive shows that our farming popula-
ton subscribed well, giving the "city
chaps" run for their money.
Charlevoix county was divided into
three districts, the three cities OF the
county being the center Of each dis
trict. The county's quota was $l78,0O0
it subscribed $330,OO0, the districts
being divided as follows
Quota Subscribed
East Jordan 10000 $927O0
Charlevoix $4,000 $4,000
Boyne City 10000 $4,000
Without doubt Eveline township is
the banner one of the county, subscrib.
ing over $4,000. We regret that we
are unable to give either Eveline or
Wilson list of subscribers in full. The
list published is those who subscribed
through the East Jordan banks. Many
from each of the above townships SUBJ
scribed at either Charlevoix or Boyne
City, hence the names 60 to those
banks.
The following list has been carefully
checked over but there are undoubtedly
some errors, and possibly some names
of subscribers omitted unintentionally.

State Garden Club Leader
Assists in Organizing
Bows and Girls Garden Clubs,

State garden club leader, Mr.. Emil
Volz, of Lansing, spent the first two
days of the week in CharlevoiX County
and assisted in the organization work
of boys and girls clubs for gardening
work. Monday was spent in working
in the clubs at Boyne City and Boyne
Falls and on Tuesday the work was
taken up in the East Jordan, Horizons
Bay, CharlevoiX and Marion Center
schools. This work is of vast impor-
tance for the present time, since we
need to grow all that we can in our
home gardens and then can all of those
vegetables which may be preserved in
this way. BY doing these things we
will lessen the amount of canned vege-
tables which we will have to buy next
winter and thus save much in trans
portation, which will give more cars to
the transportation of those things
which we cannot produce at home.

TAXPAYERS NOTICE.

The National Red Cross Drive for
working funds is set for May 20 to 9th.
500, 900, 900 is to be raised, and Char
levoix Coun.y's proportion is 5000. OF
this amount three-fourths is sent to
Washington and one-fourth remains in
the County, to be used for Civilian
Relief.
The City of East Jordan's proportion
has not been definitely determined, but
will not exceed $2400. II is proposed
to include this amount in making up
the city's annual budget. That is, to
raise this amount by appropriation
from city funds. Non-taxpayers only
to be solicited and the amount raised
by them to be deducted from the
amount appropriated. This will save
an endless amount of solicitation, with
the resulting unequal distribution Of
the burden.
The City Commission will meet in
special session at the commission
rooms Monday night, May 18th, to con-
slider any objections which may be
made. If no objections are made, the
City Commission will assume that this
plan is satisfactory to the taxpayers of
the city of East Jordan.

the Petoskey Presbyterial convened in
the First Presbyterian Church April

Petoskey, Boyne City, Lake City and

ing held.
The Thursday morning session was
given over largely to reports of the

real advance in the work of The year.
After adjournment, dinner was served

The evening meeting was a Public
Rally presided over by Rev. Sidebo-
than. After prayer by Rev. Hoyt of
the NJ. E. Church and a solo by Miss

world safe for Democracy.

Tried Murder
and Suicide
Echo Township Scene of Crime,
Friday Night.

Alex LaValley clubbed his wife into
Inconsistencies, and, leaving her
presumably dead, went to a nearby
barn and attempted suicide by hanging.
Both efforts were failures.
The affair took place last Friday
Aht at their home in Echo township.
Following a lengthy quarrel over pro-
perty, Mrs. LaValley retired about mid
night. LaValley secured club and
struck his wife a number of blows on
the head rendering her unconscious.
He then stabbed her face with a jack
knife. Leaving her as he supposed
dead, he went to the barn, secured
some two-strand hay wire and attempt
ed to hang himself. The wire broke,
but the back of his neck was severely
lacerated.
According to reports LaValley hid in
the woods Saturday, coming to East
Jordan that night. He returned to the
Bennett woods hiding Sunday and re-
turning that evening to this city. A
searching party of about fifty men
were looking for him both days. Dep'y
Sheriff Cook located the man near the
Esterly street dock in the lumber piles
about six o'clock Sunday night. When
arrested, he wore long piece of
quarter-inch rope around his body, and
was evidently meditating between
hanging and drowning.
Deputy Sheriff Cook lodged him in
the city Jail and on Monday Sheriff
VIM. Kittle came over from Bellaire
and took him to the Antrim County Jail.
AT the time of the crime only a nine
year-old boy was in the house, asleep
upstairs, and had no knowledge of the
crime until morning. Mrs. LaValley
remained unconscious until Saturday
afternoon, and is in critical condition.
ShsNxas removed to Petoskey hos
pital/ l/Wednesday.
LysFaley is about fifty-five years of
age, and, with his wife, have resided
on their S0-acre farm in the west part
of Echo township for over twenty-five
years.
