individual Discharges
May Be Obtained

According to a general order of the
war department just issued, enlisted
men and officers in the army may OBJ
tain discharges now if the situation at
home is such that their presence is
needed. In explaining this general
order, Fred e. Johnson, an Indianap-
oils lawyer, who was recently dis
charged as a major in the Judge ad-
vocate-generals department, Washing
ton, D. c., says that this represents
change of policy in the matter OF
discharges.
Heretofore discharges were by
units Fragments and divisions) and
not by individuals" said Mr.. Johnson
today. This applied both to soldiers
in this country and abroad.
Nov, however, the government is
paying attention to individual cases
where soldiers now in the service are
badly needed at home, and on prop
err showing these men can now obtain
their discharge from the service.

The observance of Arbor Day dates

Michigan Transit Co. Make Fine
Proposition.

Does East Jordan want direct boat
service between this city and Chicago?
II can be secured by little effort on

The Michigan Transit Company will
give East Jordan weekly boat service
from Chicago providing there is suf-
ficient interest shown among our citi-
zens to warrant the venture.
Our Board of Trade have held a
couple of>meetings the past week with
Mr.. Carter, who represents the Michi-
gan Transit Company, and after going
lover the proposition with him, have
Gwen it their unqualified endorsement.
The Michigan Transit Company now
own the Steamer Kansas, which they
operated last year. They now wish to
enlarge by purchasing the Steamers
Missouri and Manitou of the old North
ern Michigan Transportation Com
pany. The plan is to give East Jordan
a weekly service of the Steamer Kansas
and, should the matter develop farther,

The matter hinges on whether or not
our business interests will give this
their financial and moral support. Mr..
Carter explains that no definite
amount IS required of us either in stock
subscriptions or guaranteed freight
tonnage. The main idea is to ascertain
beyond doubt that the people OF East
Jordan want and will support such a
venture.
Outside of the many direct benefits
to be derived by such service, the ad-
vertising value of such boat service
is unlimited. 1t may mean that finally
the South Arm of Pine Lake, already
sparsely dotted with summer resort
cottages, will come into its own and the
shores of this beautiful body of water
lined with summer homes.
1t is well worth working for.
