LODGE HELD
CONVENTION
Annual Meeting of I. o. o. r.
Was Held in This City
on Monday.
COME HERE AGAIN IN 1921
Gratiot County Association at Ses-
sions Elected New
Officers.

The annual meeting of the Gratlot
County |. o. o. F. Association, and
Odd Fellow Rally Day, held here
Monday, was attended by nearly $50
delegates from various sections of the
county. Every /. o. o. F. lodge of
Gratiot county was represented by a
number of delegates, as were the va
rious Rebekah orders.
The business meeting of the asso-
citation was held during the morning,
following the address of welcome,
which was delivered by Rev Matt.
w. Duffey of the First W. f. church
of this city, and the response given
by Newton Burns of ct. Louis, vice
president Of the association.
The delegates to the association, al
ways highly pleased at the fine treat
ment and general good time accorded
them at previous meetings here,
chose Alma as the place for the hold
ing of the 1921 annual session of the
association.
Officers for the ensuing year We're
elected at the Monday morning meet
ing, VIM Horton being elected presi-
dent to succeed George II. Smith, who
refused 70 continue in that office. The
other officers elected were as follows:
vice president, George Schlappi of
Alma, secretary-Alma Saad of AL
ma, and treasurer--B. +. Lane of st.
Louis. Mrs. Saad and Mr.. Lane were
reelected to the Offices which they
held last year.
The afternoon and evening meet
ings Of the association were highly
interesting, in view Of the addresses
that were given, which were closely
linked with the purposes and desires
Of the ]. o. 0. +. order. Among those
that were especially well greeted
we're those of Rev. John Roberts and
Rev. Yinger The address "Oddfel-
lowship and Present Day Problems
by Rev. Yinger, was perhaps the best
of the several addresses given.
The delegates were given some rare
musical treats during the day, the
greater number of these coming at
the evening meeting. The Yinger
Juvenile Quartette, composed of Rev
Yinger's four children, proved espec-
tally good Miss Holmes of this city
was well received with her whistling
solos, as was the Republic Orchestra
and the College Male Quartette
Another pleasing feature We're the
readings given by Mrs. Raum, and
Mr.. May

ment made by Postmaster V. p. Cash.
In this movement, which is part of
the campaign for wise spending, sane
saving and safe investment, each
citizen of this community is TO be
urged 20 invest in at east one Of the
1920 Treasury Savings certificates of
the 500 denomination, which always
will be worth more than it cost.

they have of investing in Govern
ment securities.
In making the announcement of
the launching of this movement Post
master Cash explained the benefits
to investors of the Treasury Savings
certificates. He said:
This new Government security is
particularly attractive TO the small
investor because of its many good

feature. 1t is registered immediate
ly on purchase, thus offering protec-
ton against loss, fire or theft 1t
cannot depreciate in value 1t is
backed by the entire resources of the
nation, and increases in value each
month you hold it,
Treasury Savings Certificates are
short term notes, maturing January
/, 1925. They yield a substantial in
come. actually more than 4 lac in
terest if held to maturity. They are
a liquid investment redeemable upon
demand for more than you paid for
them. and they have valuable tax ex-
emption privileges"
The Postmaster said he would ac-
cept either cash OF bank drafts ir
payment for the registered security
which will be delivered in two OF
three days. The price of Treasury
Savings Certificates for the month ot

REPUBLICANS
MET IN IONA
Louisa Y. King, First Woman

NO ENDORSEMENT FOR HIRAM
Plenty of Resolutions Passed at
Convention But None for
Californian.

The Eighth Congressional District
convention was held yesterday in
Iona at which time delegates to the
National Republican convention in
Chicago were elected, and the presi-
Dental elector for the district select
ed
Louisa Ieomans King of this city
received the honor of being the first
woman in the state TO be named as
presidential elector, the delegates to
the Eighth District convention sup
porting a move started on Tuesday
night by number Of prominent Sag
NAV women on the Saginaw county
delegation who started the move in
this direction.
The delegates to the National Re
publican convention to be held in
Chicago in June were w. F. Gala
CHER, an Owosso banker, and General
Fred Greene of Ionia, for several
years mayor of that city. The alter
mates to the convention are women,
Mable Summers Of Saginaw and
Theresa Ranney of Greenville.
julius Kerby of Saginaw was en-
dorsed as a delegate at large TO the
National convention, and George K.
Nichols of lonia was endorsed as a
candidate for attorney general.
Numerous resolutions were passed
by the convention, but it is note
worthy that the Eighth District con-
venton did not endorse the candi-
dacy of Senator Hiram Johnson of

MEET ACES AGAIN
Two Games Between Aces and Re-
publics for Saturday and SUNDAY.

The third and fourth games of the
series of six TO be played between
the Saginaw Aces, champions Of the
Michigan-O Ontario league and the AL
ma Republics will be played Saturday
and Sunday on Republic field.
With the additional week Of prac-
tice Red" Mckee has worked his
Aces into smooth working combi-
nation that will not prove to be easy
meat for the Alma clan, and two hard
battles can be looked forward to by
the Alma fans. The fiery Saginaw
manager has put a lot of pep into
his men and they are out TO down
the Truckmakers in the games this
week.
II is not certain what the pitching
selections will be for the coming
games, but il is probable that Man
ager Olmstead will send Hagerman
to the mound 70 bring home one Of
the games and that Freeman will
twirl the other bout. Mckee prob
ably will not name his selections un-
iii time for the games.

CONDITION GOOD
Local Utility Not Yet Experiencing
Trouble With Fuel.

The various utility companies in all
effort to obtain relief from the coal
shortage which is proving highly
serious, and at a meeting held in
Lansing Monday appealed to the
government for aid.
Some of the utilities claimed to
have only three, four or five days
supply of fuel on hand. In fact for
two days the Bay City gas company
had been forced TO discontinue the
manufacture Of gas, being without
fuel, so serious had the shortage be-
come.
r. b. Wagner, manager of the Gra-
tiot County Gas company, stated
yesterday that the local concern was
much more fortunate than most Of
these utility companies in this re-
spect. having on hand supply of
fuel sufficient for about two weeks.
A small supply Of oil is on hand also
for the manufacture of water gas,
should this become necessary. so that
no immediate trouble is being antici-
pated by the officials of the company
who are hoping that something will
be done within the next few days to
relieve the serious coal shortage
which is facing such concerns.
The fact that the Gratiot County
Gas company has more coal for gas
manufacture right now than have
most concerns of the state, is seem
ingly a good boost for the manag-
ment. which has been working un-
ceasingly TO bring the company
through the troublesome high cost
period, which the war brought on.
