J. H. Robbins Chosen to Conduct Work
In This City

Joseph H. Robbins, president of the
Robbins Table Co., has been chosen
and accepted the management of the
Third Liberty Loan drive for Owosso
City and has begun organizing for it,
having turned his personal business
over to his brother and will devote his
entire time to it. He stated at the
Improvement Asso. meeting that the
necessity for sacrifc of everything
possible to help win the war plain to
him and he had enlisted to do his part.
Byron P. Hicks, of Durand, county
manager, was called on and made a
most convincing and plain spoken
statement of the plan proposed which
will put everybody on record as an en-
thusiastic patriot, Stacker or a pro-
German and every loyal citizen will be
asked to assist and every enemy in
our midst will be known to his neigh
bors and the world at large.

It is reported that the embargo on
corn from Argentina, through which
Hoover hoped to increase the export
of wheat from that country to the
United States, may bring about that
result, but advices from Argentina
as to the attitude of shippers there
are not encouraging. The Argentine
shippers are said to be receiving more
for their corn than the grain import

their wheat, so they do not look kind

will keep, but corn carried over is apt

would get no bread.

A drunken row and a free.for- all. fight
at the Hewitt saloon in Chesaning Sat-
urday, resulted in the sudden death OF
George Seaman aged 80 years. who
lived near Chesaning. William Scott
of this city, was held until the close OF
the inquest Wednesday by Saginaw
officers, under suspicion Of having struck
Seaman, but the jury decided Seaman
came to his death from unknown causes
The dead man was hard drinker, and
heat failure caused by it undoubtedly
caused his death. The usual scare heads
and conflicting stories occupied much
newspaper room for several days, but
fortunately no one must go to prison
for life as the result of this, which will
probably be one of the last saloon
rows ia this vicinity.
