AMERICAS DEBT

America owes it to herself. she owes 1t to those who went to the war but never returned. she owes 1t to those who are now recuperating on their cots and to the mothers who kissed their sons a last farewell-tne mothers of the men who fell on the plains of France-to say that We are ready to unite our forces to establish peace and put down war
 "Never in the future will the league of nations involve LIS in such hard and fast alliance as we were in dur ing the war. If the league Is not ratified. I predict that within 15 years Germany will seize Russia and with her vast resources start another md greater war. But let no power nov deny US the fruits of victory" ~
 Mir. Heflin predicted that Senator Borah and Senator Reed next year will attempt to form an American party and that they will come to the south to try to "break the solid south in an effort to rupture the Gibraltar of democracy" He declared that the south had done great service to the country and to the world with her part in the war.
 Long applause followed the clos ing remarks of Mfr. Heflin. During MT.

Not a Model Prisoner

According to some of the prison Of

at Ionia, with whom we have been
talking recently, major" w. ]. N.Y.
ers, who cut quite a swath around this
city and other places in the state some
time ago as returned Canadian sol
der, is far from being model pris-
oner.
When he first entered the reforma-
tory he was allowed to take a posi-
tion in the kitchen, which carried with
it certain privileges which other in
mates of the place did not have. N.Y.
ers, however, broke his trust and from
now on he gets no privileges whatever.
His life in the prison consists in work
ing on the contract and going to his
cell, somewhat different existance
than he was used to before he went
wrong and got mixed up in the auto
mobile selling and buying game. A
sad feature of the fellows case is that
despite the assertions Of his sister to
the contrary, he has seen service with
the Canadian army overseas in the
early days of the great war and it
has been learned with certainty by the
prison officials who have been looking
up his past life that his army record
is genuine.

RED CROSS WILL
HANDLE BASKETS
FOR CHRISTMAS
MANY HOMES WILL BE VISITED
AND BASKET OF GOOD
THINGS LEFT

Last year the Red Cross took hold
of the matter of Christmas baskets
for the sick and needy in this city and
they will look after it again this year
under the direction of Miss Florence
Washburn. A list has already been
prepared of worthy people and the
fact that the Red Cross has charge
of the matter is assurance that the
baskets will be right. Some Of the
Boy Scouts have volunteered to dis
tribute and will look after that end
of the good work.
Each Christmas for several years
past this grand idea has been carried
out and many little heart has been
made happy and many little stomach
in this city has been filled by one of
these big baskets.
