Would Again Revise City Charter

At the meeting of the Owosso I'M
provement association Tuesday the
committee of which John j. Mcdonald
is chairman, made a report recon-
mending revision Of the Owosso city

prove revision, charter commission

which as revised, would be finally sub
mitted to the electorate again for
adoption. If adopted it must be ap-
proved by the Governor and then a
special election would be called to elect
officials under the new charter.

Memorial Day Exercises

The services at the armory We're
presided over by Mayor Wright, who
touched briefly on the purpose of the
services. The G. A. R. public SER
vice was carried out by the officers of
Quackenbush post, G.. A. R., and was
followed by the reading of Memorial
orders. A huge chorus choir rendered
"God Save America" which was fol-
lowed by the Woman's Relief Corps
public service and the reading of the
Memorial address. Rev. w. H. Blach-
ford invoked blessings on the assem-
blage, and Clayton Cook read Gov.

coins Gettysburg address, followed by
the reading of General Logan's First
Memorial day proclamation by Miss
Celia Olney. Mrs. Lillian Vogel Hard
I ing, in excellent voice, rendered solo,
"The Song of the Flag.
Rev. Chester B. Emerson, of Detroit
who served overseas as a Y. M. C. A.
secretary, delivered the address of the
day. He took as his subject, "The
Fight for Liberty" Rev. Emerson's
address was brief and to the point.
He was eloquent and swayed his audi
ence with him as he passed along. He
declared that this nation is not fight
ing nation but that it refuses, after
turning both cheeks, to take punch
in the nose and sit stilh Germany
tried to punch her nose, he said, after
America had turned both cheeks, and
the world learned what she could do.
All America, he asserted, hates war,
but she will not, permit the princi-
Piles which she espouses, those of free
dom and liberty, to be trampled on.
America will fight and conquer when
these purinciples are at stake, he as
serted.
The exercises were concluded by the
singing Of America by the audience,
followed by benediction by Rev. Dun
ming Idle.
Following the exercises the parade
was formed on West Exchange street
under the direction of Major G. T.
Campbell and his aides, Majors j. o.
Parker, j. j. Haviland, G.. p. Sackrid-
er and Sergt. J. j. Mcdonald. The

seas veterans, Odd Fellows, Bohemian

G. A. r. and w. r. c., and 500 school
children, each carrying flags. AS the
parade moved down the street, to the
notes Of "Onward Christian Soldiers
and played by the Owosso band, it
made an impressive sight and elected
continued applause.
The usual exercises were held at
the lake and at the soldiers monu-
ment, after which the parade reformed
and marched to the G. A. r. hall and
disbanded.

DECISION FAVORS SCHULTZ
WHITLEY

Judge Collins Saturday filed an
opinion in the case of Harry F. Schultz
and B. F. Whitley doing business a.,
the Owosso Dry Cleaning Works,
against E. H. Cherry and wife, Robert
Hochield and John Raak. The court
decided the case in favor of Schultz
and Whitley.
The case was for the purpose of
determining who owned the trade
name "Owosso Dry Cleaning Works"
and the court decided that Schultz &
Whitley do.
Judge Collins holds that the whole
case hinges on whether or'not Schoutz
bought the trade name and good will
of Hook in 1915, and states that in his
opinion Schultz did do this. He states
that the bill OF sale which Cherry ex-
hibits was made in 1916. Therefore.
the court ruled that Schultz and
Whitley own the trade name and
grants them permanent Injunction
restraining Cherry from using the
name. He also directs that Schultz
may recover costs from Cherry.
