DON'T TAKE DOWN THE FLAG.
Keep Service Flag Up Until Date Il
Determined.

Don't take down your service fag.'
That is the advice which has come
cut OF Washington, ID. c.
Just because your soldier or sailor
boy is at home, Il does not mean that
you are not permitted TO continue to
display the emblem" is the statement
made by one Of the local committee TO
mothers OF boys in service.
"A service flag is badge OF honor
and 1t is presumed every one who has
one wants TO keep II on display as long
as good form would indicate. 1t has
been decided that such flags ought to
be kept up until the great bulk, II not
all, the men have come back. II will
be pleasing sight to them TO see the
flag at this and that home as they go
by and to realize that this home and
that home furnished one OF his com
rades AT arms.
Instead OF taking down the flags
one by one, as fast as the Doys are
mustered out, or as the blue stars
turn to gold their possessors should
keep them on display until some fixed
date when they can be demobilized in
some public ceremony and laid away
with reverence as keepsake. The
service flag has appeared everywhere
as a sign Of reverence and an emblem
OF pride. The finest homes and
humblest cots have shown them and
some places of poverty show stars Of
varied colors, blue, silver and gold.
Let them remain in position for a
while and until a certain date has
been set for removal, for every such
flag is badge of honor for patriotic
home"

All members OF the ticket with the
exception OF John f. Mason, were
chosen at the state convention held

planned in another column OF this is

The convention was largely attend
ed, many women appearing among
the delegates on the floor of the con
vention hall which was the Prudden
auditorium.
Was Harmonious Throughout.
The pre-convention days had been
charged ~ith considerable political
electricity for the reason that the
farmers OF Michigan demanded a
place on the state board OF agricul-
ture and l.. Whitney Watkins and
Mrs. Dora Stockman were put forth
by the grangers as their candidates in
opposition to A. ]. Doherty and Rob
ert Graham. Mrs. Stockman has
been a lecturer for the state grange
for many years and Is well known
throughout Michigan. She was pit
ted against Mr.. Doherty and he an
nounced several weeks ago that he
would withdraw in Mrs. Stockman's
favor Then Graham got out and left
Whitney Watkins who led the Pro-
gressives In 1912, unopposed for the
other position.
The nominations were made by ac-
clamation and the utmost harmony
prevailed throughout. Many women
were seated as delegates and they
were given places upon the com
mittees OF the convention. The wo-
man getting the most important posi-
tion was Mrs. NJ. III. DeFoe, wife OF

and II Is said that IT'S terms will be
much harsher than the old law was.
II will take about two weeks to
get the new law perfected II speed Is
attained, but the legislators may

Orders swere received here last
Wednesday by the state constabulary
to stop searching travellers on the
county road and trains, and since
that time the men have not been out
on the road, although they are still
in the vicinity and expect to go back
on the work again in a few weeks.
This action came as the result OF a
decision handed down by the supreme
court on Monday in which that body
practically nullihed the law passed
at the 1917 session of the state legis-
lature for the purpose of enforcing
the amendment forbidding traffic in
liquor and the manufacture OF liquor
in Fichigan.
Decision Causes Discussion.
The decision was rendered in the
case of A. Marxhausen, owner OF the
Detroit Abend Post from whose home
officials took 1000 cases Of beer His
attornles contended the present law
does not prohibit the keeping of liq-
uor in ones home and cannot pre-
vent anyone from bringing liquor in
to the state
Some authorities construed the rul-
ing as taking out OF the hands OF
state officials the power to prevent
anyone bringing liquor into Michigan
and leaving such authority only with
federal officials operating under the
federal law prohibiting such traffic
In a dry State.
