cured from the Lamborn Drug Store,
have done me more good than any of
the others. I highly recommend them

PRESIDENT WILSON'S
TEMPERANCE STAND

Probably never in the history of
America have more people been dis
appointed in the attitude of the chief
executive of the country than have
been disappointed in the stand Presi-
dent Wilson has recently taken on
the temperance question.
Public sentiment was oyer-whelm-
ing in its approval Of war time pro-
hibition The various state legis-
latures were exceedingly prompt in
passing legislation which ratified
nationwide prohibition, and it was
generally and almost universally con
coded that the war time prohibition
had been "a move of great wisdom in
both the army and navy
IL was argued. snd with good rea-
son, that if prohibition was a neces-
slty IN war it would be still greater
necessity in times Of peace.
The attitude assumed by the pres
ldent. came as a thunderbolt out Of
a clear sky and proved a bitter dis
appointment to his warmest friends
and most ardent admirers We deep
~ regret that he should take this
stand and thus lose what has
been gained by a hard fight in the
cause of better citizenship; TO follow
his advice in this matter is a step in
a backward direction which America
can not afford 10 take

Brilliant Victories.

The Alma college baseball team
defeated Albion and Hillsdale colleges
Friday and Saturday in the two
games which promise to be the de-
Gliding factors in the Michigan Inter
collegiate baseball race and it is now

third straight title in the national
pastime. The Albion game was won

Friday and pitched a good game. al
though allowing more hits than
usual. Six bingles scattered through
the nine frames were all that Eller-
bys men could connect for, and had
it not been for a bunch of errors,
Albion would have counted at least
one run less and perhaps two. Six
men whitfield the breezes in striking
at Crittenden's offerings
Both teams scored in the opening
inning with one run. and Albion took
the lead in the second with another
run In the sixth Alma sent two
counters over the pan, taking one
run lead. Albion tied it on errors in
the following inning. In the ninth
Ards got one and stole. and was
brought home by Tomion Tomion

tested Kalamazoo Alma game at
Kalamazoo. Without doubt the game
will be thrown out, giving Alma a
clean slate, but it is possible that the
directors may order that the bout be
replayed. In any case Alma has an
excellent opportunity to win the title
and at worst can have nothing less
than tie with kalamazoo college

able to take the measure of the Kali

RECORD SOLD

With this issue the ownership of
The Record is relinquished, the news
paper and equipment having been
sold to Babcock & Grosskopf Of Har-
Dor Springs, Michigan. who took
possession Monday.
We regret in many ways making
this change, because our connection
with The Record has made it nearly
a life work, The Record having been
purchased thirty-two years ago, and
under the same management, except
for eight years of this time. We
have constantly endesvored TO give
Alma a paper that she could be
proud of. This we are satisfied We
have done.
-Four years ago we repurchased
The Record in a rundown condition
and today can boast Of one of the
best country weekles and one of the
best equipped Offices in the state.
This has been done by hard work. a
close and constant attention TO bust
ness, and to the splendid spirit of CO.
operation which has been rendered by
bNc DuSlitSS men OI Alma ana the
people of Gratiot county.
We wish TO thank the many friends
of The Record, who have assisted us
in making The Record and the bust
ness what it is, and TO ask all TO be
as generous and as helpful to the
new owners as possible, as we are
certain that with this cooperation
their efforts will prove more success
full than those of the past.

these hopes for the greater part on
the fact that they were able to defeat
Ithaca at Ithaca. In that game,
