ELECTED HEAD
OF THE PARK BOARD:
+. BAND STANDPLANNED

At the annual meeting OF, the park
board held last evening, Harry E.
Titus, superintendent Of the M. & L.
machine shops, was elected president
and DR.. G.. M. Palmer secretary.
-. H. G. Baer, cashier Of the Security
State bank, was chosen as a board
member to succeed NJ E. Given, called
for special military esrvice.
The board is planning to ierect a
new bandstand in Library park. The
one that has done service on the lake
front is entirely too small and not in
good condition. Director Peterson
and board members made an inspec-
ton of the band pavilion on the lake
and it is scarcely able to accommo-
date half dozen men. The band is
now nearing 80 members and an ade-
quate band stand is necessity.
The idea entails the erection of a
band pavilion with concrete base,
stucco sides, and have 1t screened
with sectional screens that may be
removed in case of public, speaking.
1t will be provided with a door and
kept locked to prevent any vandalism.

ing Mrs. Severence, noted woman

distinct titles, according to story
narrated about him. - y ~ ~ r.
When Mr.. Hartman was mustered
out at the cloae of the Civil War at
Washington, he was General Sam
Hartman of Wisconsin. When he
reached Madison, Wis, the state capi-
tai, thy called him colonel. When

Sam"

midi is a rare opportunity to hear

Hindenburg is evidently planning
a blow at the British lines in Flard
ers, General Haig's report Of the bonn
bardment on an eleven mile front
from Armentieres to Labacsee canal
indicates.
Armentieres is only a mile south
of the Belgian frontier and La Bass,
Is five miles north of the northern
extremity Of the German offensive
front.
The drive here is geographically
independent from the previous drive,
but might distract allied pressure
further south.

London, April 9.-Premier Lloyd
George in addressing the House of
Commons today, said that. although
the present is the most critical phase
of the war, lulling now, yet the hur-
ricane is not yet over. arE
; Premier George also stated that
the fate of the empire and Europe's
liberty may depend upon the success
of the final attack on the part of the
Germans, and until the strain is re-
laxed it is difficult to ascertain just
what has happened. At the begin
ming of the battle, the German
strength equalled that Of the allies,
