MORRELL MEMORIAL
HOSPITAL MADE fine
SHOWING flor JANUARY

The January report of the Morrell
Memorial Hospital, just filed, makes
a splendid showing for that institu.
ton. Especially gratifying is the
evidence that it is so efficiently per-
forming the particular function for
which it was established, in taking
care of charity patients. During the
month it is shown by the report that
6S days service has been given to
this class of patients. In comment
ing upon this record the superinten-
dent, Miss Margaret Angland, ex-
pressed high appreciation of the gen.
erous and unselfish work of the ply
sicians in their unstinted care and at
tention to the charity patients.
The Hospital seems to be conducted
in a manner that wins praise from all,
and its operation is viewed with gen.
eral approval by the citizenship gen.
orally. Indeed, it is said by those
who have had opportunities to Judge
that its management is not surpassed
in efficiency and correct methods of
operation by any like institution any
where.

SEVERAL Reasons
WHY MICHIGAN
PEOPLE LIKE
LAKELAND

Editor George T. Campbell, of the
Owosso (Mich.) Argus and Press
American, who is spending several
weeks in Lakeland, had the follow
ing to say this morning in converse
ton with Telegram representative
relative to Lakeland and its drawing
powers for Michigan people:
Eat recent tourist meeting in Lake
land it was discovered that the state
of Michigan had present the largest
number of tourists, which prompt
ed the question, Whats the matter
with Michigan, that you all get away
from it?" 1t would be difficult, per-
haps, to get the average Wolverine"
to concede that there is anything ma
terially "the matter with Michigan"
but that state and Florida seem to so
nicely complement the other that it
is perhaps natural at season when
the northern state is passing through
its annual period of rest from the &C.
tivities of the season for some Of the
citizens to come to this, the other
peninsula state to enjoy here some Of
the delights of home. For Michigan
is as great resort state in the sum-
mer as Florida is in winter. Both
surrounded on three sides by water,
with innumerable lakes, pine trees
and splendid foliage, while differing
materially in many respects, they
nevertheless possess many things in
common.
"And of the entire state of Michi-
gan, the county Shiawassee and city
Of Owosso has contributed each year,
for several years past quite material
ly to the growth and development Of
Lakeland. Several men of means,
like the late Albert e. Hartshorn
have in the past invested largely in
Lakeland property, and today num-
Der of former citizens of the northern
county have delightful homes and
valuable farm interests in this city.
1t is not strange, therefore, that of
the entire number of Michiganders
hereabuots, the city Of Owosso and
vicinity furnish about forty at the
present time.
Lakeland is we'll known in the
north as a beautiful, progressive in
land city, Offering to visitors vel
come, not only for the money they
leave in the city, but also because it
is the disposition of its citizens to
be kind and courteous to the way
farer, and as a result of such treat
ment, many who came only to see
and enjoy have remained to live In
the large sense of being here to be
out doors practically all the year
round, and bask in the warmth and
sunshine of this section at time
when at their old home the thermom-
eter is lowering around zero, and the
ground covered deep with snow.
"These things demonstrate the
wonderful resources of our country,
and it's great variations of climate
and interests, make as whole land
worth loving, worth living for and
we'll worth fighting for"

Soldiers meet danger, hardships and temptation.
The last is the worst OF the three
We determined to do all we can for our dear
and brave boys who are in the army and navy
We provide long range guns and warships to lessen
their dangers and blankets and and hospitals to
lessen their hardshps but their greatest battle must be
with temptations They away from home, excited,
uncomfortable, and beset by people who wish to get
their money
On the other hand there are great reasons which
should make them lead clean and triumphant righteous
lives They fighting for noble They
coming back most of them, to the dear home.
temptation.
One good way to help people resist temptation is to
give them something good do and the soldier has much
idle time. The Young Mems Christian Association has
done towards keeping soldiers from temptation
than has ever been done for soldiers in war And
the Jews and the Catholics have started societies like the
Y NJ c. A. to do the same kind of work for their boys
lust now these different organizations uniting in
a great campaign to raise money for taking OF
soldiers They will try to do for them in the camp and
on the sea what their folks would do for them they
could be
1t is certainly wonderful thing to the good peo-
ole OF all the different denominations taking hold togeth
er in this good work. We must fight the Germans and
at the same time must fight disease and dissipation
and temptation. Many OF our dear will go out boys
and come back men-they will go out rather light head
