One day as he was seated in a sa-

MORRIS KINDS HAS
PASSED TO LONG RESI-

Morris Kinds passed away at his
farm home in Otisco Friday, March
/, aged sixty-eight years.
The deceased was a pioneer of this
county and a man who was much low
ed and respected by all who knew
him and his death has caused sorrow
to a large circle of relatives and
friends. His health for the past year
has not been good and he was obliged
to go to the hospital for treatment a
few weeks ago. Mr.. Kinds has lived
here continuously with the exception
of few years in the west.
The funeral was held at the house
Sunday afternoon, where old neigh
bors and friends assembled to pay
their last respects to the departed.
Rev. p. r. Norton, pastor of the M.
E. church, officiated, and Mrs. A. j.
Rummler and Miss Ellen Blair sang.
The remains were borne to their last
resting place on earth in River Ridge
cemetery by Ernest Benton, John
Rossman, Dell Cobb and Eli Hanks.
Besides his wife Mr.. Kinds leaves
two daughters, Miss Della Kinds and
Miss Maude Kinds.

CENTRAL POWERS PEACE
TERMS

The peace terms demanded by the
Central Powers on the 23rd are re-
ported to include rehabilitation of
the Russian Army and fleet, and COM
plete disposal by Central Powers of
Baltic provinces, Lithuania, Poland
and the Ukraine. Commercial con-
cessions are demanded, including free
export without tariff of ores. After
Russian rehabilitation Germany will
evacuate occupied Russian territory
east of the provinces relinquished by
Russian. Russia must conclude peace
with the Ukraine, and must. immedi-
ately withdraw Bolsheviki troops and
Red Guards from Finland. Russia
promises to put an end to every pro-
paganda and agitation, either on the
part of the government, or on the
part of persons supported by the gov
eminent, against members of the
Quadruple Alliance and their political
and military institutions, even in To-
calities occupied by the Central Pow
ers." These terms were to be ac-
copied whiting forty-eight hours. Pre-
mier Lenine and Foreign Minister
Trotsky accepted the German terms
on the oath. 1t is announced that
Russia will send delegation to Brest-
Litovsk.

A WELL SPENT LIFE

Rev. Elisha Nudge, an account of
whose death will be found in another
column of the Banner, was one of the
early residents Of Belding, and one
whom his neighbors and friends at
that time respected very highly for
his many good qualities and sterling
character.
Rev. Nudge was publisher of the
Belding News for several years when
it appeared in pamphlet. form; was
pastor of the Christian church and
was charter member and first Wor-
shipful Master of Belding Lodge No.
355 F. & A. M. 1t was largely through
his efforts that the Grand Lodge
granted a charter for this city, at
that time a small village and his pic
ture has prominent place in the
lodge room, heading the past masters.
Mr.. Nudge paid occasional visits
here up to about ten, or twelve years
ago and his many old-time friends
were always pleased to meet him as
he ever had good and encouraging
word for all. "a
Rev. Nudge went down to his grave
with the honors of a truly ripe. old
age upon him and in the conscious

DISCUSSIONS OFF PEACE

The open discussion of peace terms
which has been going on side by side
with the movements of ships and ar
mics is making progress, says The
Advance. We had on the same day
reports of Wilson's replies to the Ger
man and Austrian chancellors and
reiteration of the will to victory in a
personal address by the German
Emperor.
President ilson draws broad dis
tinction between the terms Of peace
as stated by Chancellor Czernin, the
Austrian, and the German terms as
voiced by Chancellor won Hertling.
He restates the general principles UNI
der-lying the fourteen terms of peace
in his former message under four
heads:
1. Each part of the final settle
ment must be based upon essential
Justice to bring a permanent peace.
2. Peoples and provinces are not
to be bartered about like chattels to
establish balance of powers.
3. Territorial settlements must be
for the benefit of people concerned
and not merely adjustment of rival
states claims.
a. Well defined national aspiration
must be accorded all possible satislac-
ton.
Upo nthe acceptance of these gen.
eral principles he conditions the pos
sibility of useful further discussions.
"Until such peace can be secured
we have no choice but to go on"
With an optimism which we hope
is justified the President asserts, that
these general principles have the as
sent of all parties to the present war
mil IF
many. That this exception must be
made is proved by the Kaiser's state
ment that Germany is unwilling to
make any but victorious peace. I'VE
desire to live in friendship with
neighboring peoples, but the victory
of German arms must first be recog-
nized."
The discussion is advanced by the
clear marking of this distinction. 1t
assures and convinces the world that
the one obstacle to the peace which
everybody processes to desire is found
in the military ambitions for the pres
ent and the future of the German rul-
ing autocracy. The German martial
spirit which began the war is still the
sole obstacle to its termination. That
this is true is recognized not simply
by the President in holding out invi-
tations to Austria-Hungary on the
basis of the Austrian Foreign Minis
ter's deliberate utterances, but also
by the British King, who in his open
ing of Parliament declares that the
future peace of the worth is incom-
patible with German purposes and
ambitions and that the war must go
on, and by the British Premier, Lloyd
George, in hi saddress to the House
of Commons.
Sooner or later the knowledge that
a place of equal brotherhood and
goodwill remains open to the German
people, but that most of the world is
combined against German ambitions
expressed in present forms of ruth
lessness, will find its way to the sob
erer minds among the suffering Ger
mans. We dare noe say that peace

DONT'S FOR PEOPLE
WHO USE GASOLINE

Our government and our allies are
using tremendous quantities of gaso-
line for war purposes. The need in
creases every day, more motor trucks,
more airplanes, more U-boat chasers,
more motorcycles, more army dis
patch cars, more tanks, more tractors
and more of other gasoline war
machines are built and put into serv-
ice. Every gallon of gasoline this
country can produce must perform
some useful function in helping to
win the war for America and the
world. Don't waste it-don't be ex-
travagant in it's use Save all you can
see that other people conserve it,
and observe these rules in operating
your car.
Don't let your engine run when car
is standing. 1t is good for starter bat
terry to be used frequently.
Don't spill or expose gasoline to

Stop all gasoline leakages. Form
habit of shutting off gas at tank
Or feed pipe.
Adjust brake bands so they do not
drag. See that all bearings are run
ming freely.
Have carburetor adjusted at serv-
ice stations or carburetor or automo-
bile companies-they will make ordi-
nary adjustments without charge.
Keep needle valve clean and adjust
carburetor (while engine is hot) to
use as lean mixture as possible. A
rich mixture fouls the engine and is
wasteful.
Preheat air entering carburetor and
keep radiator covered in cold wealth
er-this will insure better vaporiza-
tion
See that the spark is timed correct
ly with engine and drive with spark
as fully advanced as possible without
causing engine to labor.
Have hot spark; keep plugs clean
and spark points properly adjusted.
Avoid high speed. The average car
is most economical at Is to 25 miles
per hour.
Don't accelerate and stop quickly
it wastes gas and wears out tires.
