Total S7l2,500
The report of the banks shows the
sections Of the county where the
heaviest subscribing to the loan was
done. and the disctricts TO which most
credit must go for the fact that Gra-
tiot county did 20 over the top with
its quota on the final loan campaign
of the war. The reports of the two
banks in this city. the First State and
the Alma State Savings, show clearly
that practically half Of the entire
total of the county went through the
Alma banks, a greater portion OF
which was from Alma subscriptions.
This record on the part of the city OF
Alma. in view Of its very heavy
siliciting on past loans, is IN
deed most noteworthy one. and
should be source Of pride 20 every
one VINO has in any way aided IN
making the loan the success that It
was in this city, especially to the
banks, which not only contributed
heavily with their time. but also with
large subscriptions to the loan.
Right AT the end Of the campaign
with the county far behind its quota
tine two banks came through in fine
shape with additional subscriptions.
The Alma state Savings bank entered
its large subscription to the credit Of
nearby townships, Arcadia, Seville,
Pine River and Sumner so that they
were over the top with the county.
Honor flags VIII 20 20 them, as well
as to Alma, Ithaca. St Louis and
Ashley, and such other places as may
have achieved their quotas The
First State bank of this city also did
this same commendable thing, putting
the townships Of Bethany. Wheeler,
Lafayette and Newark over the top.
SO that the northern tier of town
ships viii all receive honor flags.
The honor flag for the county has
been received by T. Arnold Robinson
county chairman. whose work during
the present campaign has been per-
maps the hardest that any Chairman
has had during the FIVE loan cam
paigns. There is no question but
what the county committee. which he
headed. did more active work on their
campaign. than was done in any Of
the others. and TOO much credit can
not be given 10 this returned soldier,
who aided his country in this respect
just as much as he wished TO aid
cover there"

Colonel Roosevelt from the exhibition
an authorized version of his life and
works, will be donated to the Ameri-
can Red Cross until all our men are
returned to their homes from the war.
The production, which will be
shown at the Kenworthy theatre
here, starting today, is a picturiza-
dent from the cradle to the White
House.
Colonel Roosevelt announced, when
negotiations were successfully con-
cluded for special motion picture
based on his career that he would
make the American Red Cross and
possibly other war work organiza-
lions the beneficiaries of any profit
which might accrue to him in the
agreement which was made. He
wrote statement to this effect,
which has been photographed and in
corporated in the first reel of the
picture.
Just how much the Red Cross will
receive through this unique arrange
ment, which, SO far as is known, is
the first of it's kind, no one has at
tempted to state with any degree of
certainty, but men who are intimately
acquainted with the motion picture
industry and who know from previ-
Gus experience the popularity accord
ed to other big special screen at
fractions, predict that the amount
that will ultimately be paid to the
Red Cross under the terms of the
ate Colonel Roosevelt's donation will
run well into six figures.

unoduiyocai formal demand that cap

Addressed to the American Public,
and signed BIZ the engineers, the fire

statement was issued announcing the
proposal which will eb carried before
Congress Wednesday.
Characterizing the proposal as ia

the railroads are the key industry Of
the nation. II demands the genuine
cooperation and partnership based on

the service for the public"
Briefly, labor's plan demands:
That rivate capital eb eliminated
from the railroads.
That the privatae owners receive
for them government bonds with a
fixed interest return for every honest
donation that they have invested.
That the tripartite control hereto
fore referred o, be established in cor

and in which the public, operating

scented equally.
That the public, the operators ana

my life"
The organs of the body are so
closely allied that when one becomes
weak, sick OF deranged soon all may
be affected. A weakened, rundown
condition impairs all the vital organs.
A blood disorder results in poor nu-
triton in the digestive organs and
the nervous system may break down.
Perfect health demands strong or

Dreco is compound of the pure
juices and extracts of Natures own
remedies of roots, herbs, banks and
berries, which act in a natural way
on the blood and vital organs to
build them up and keep them in a
state of perfect health.
All good druggists now sell Dreco,
