Contention ReDOrt

The Both annual convention of
Gratiot Co., which was held in the NJ.
L. church of Alma, May and 3, has
passed into history and treasured
memories. Mrs. Ell II. Wood presided
throughout une sessions in her usual
able and gracious way.
The seven Unions of the county
were all represented by delegates. Re-
ports showed that good work has
been done, but only one Union, the
Sewers Memorial, had made a gain in
membership, and they triumphantly
carried home the banner.
Wednesday afternoon the w. c. T.
u. was welcomed for the churches
by Rev. Duffey, for the schools by
Supt. Kelder, and for the local Union
by Mrs. Page. Mrs. Yinger of ST.
Louis made fitting response. Mr.. KEEL
der said some reforms were needed
in the public schools and mentioned
dress-reform as one of these, but
thought that the schools could not
do much without the cooperation Of
the mothers.
Those who have thought that our
work was finished with the coming
of National prohibition should have
h. ard Mrs. Calkins' address on We'd
nesday evening. Refuting the oft
repeated statement that prohibition
was put across" while the boys were
overseas, she reviewed the work for
| temperance legislation back through
the years showing that temperance
sentiment has been growing and
crystalyzing into laws eliminating in
| National Constitutional Prohibition
She also reviewed the reform
measures that were before tn state
Legislature which recently adjourned
Censorship of moving pictures, tn,

Myron l.. Briggs, son of Orson and
Helen Briggs was born near Alma,
December 9, 1865, on his fathers
farm about half way between Alma
and st. Louis. He went TO Calhoun
county in 1896 where he was married
January 2, 1900 to Mary l.. McCardie
They established their home in Grand
Rapids, Mich, where he found en-
ployment with the street car com
pany. On January 31st, 1902 he was
terribly injured in a head on col
lsion for which he was in no wise
responsible and which necessitated
amputation of both his limbs.
For fourteen months he remained
helpless in the hospital. AS he re-
covered his strength, however, he
determined TO make the best he
could out of life and do his part with
manfulness, and he succeeded.
Not being able to use artificial
limbs successfully, he nevertheless
acquired great facility in handling
himself without clutches and in 1905
purchased a dairy farm just out of
Battle Greek which he cultivated
himself caring for the stock and OPP
Grating the usual farm machinery
He sold this farm in 1918 and soon
after suffered a stroke of paralysis
which marked the beginning of a
period of failing health. He died al
his home in Battle Greek May 3
1921. He was n member of the NJ. Z
church and his life has been a most
wonderful example of the power OF
the will to enable a man to make
the most of life while working
against great odds. He leaves tC
mourn their loss his beloved wife
and three brothers, Milo of Mime,
sofa, Malon j. of Vestaburg, and Or
son c. of Detroit, besides other rel
atives and friends.

let's on our department work were
carried home by the delegates.
A set of strong resolutions was
presented by the chairman of the
committee, Mrs. Lillian Hastings,
and adopted.
Frequently during the sessions we
were entertained and inspired by
musical selections by local talent. The
Alma ladies provided amply for our
creature comforts, and the weather
was ideal, making this profitable
meeting.
