A A THE STATE JOURNAL SEPTEMBER 15, 1919 DELHI SOLDIER PAID TRIBUTE CEREMONY IS FEATURE OF HOLT CELEBRATION. Special to The State Journal. HOLT, Sept. 15. It is estimated conservatively that Holt was visited by 15,000 persons Saturday, when the little Delhi village celebrated the home-coming of their soldiers and sailors with a reception and also held a community reunion.

The greatest crowd was noticed in the evening when, it is esumated, that between seven and eight thousand persons saw the "Oldsmobile" fireworks and heard Director Carl Dewey and his Car company band give its impressive milltary program. Special service was maintained on the Michigan Railway LansingJackson line to accommodation the! crowd. The day mishap regardless of the congested conditions and the fact that the village streets were limited for maneuvers of any kind. The marshal of the day and his aides directed traffic so systematically that not an accident was recorded. One of the most impressive ceremonies the day was the mute morial John Buck, a young Delhi of soldier and Reo worker, who was one of the first of the county's men to fall in France.

With a military air appropriate for the occasion, the American flag was lowered to haif mast, and while Peo band played a special number, the crowd uncovered and soldiers and sailors stood at attention. The demonstration stirring was a one. most striking and The "bowery," one of the big attractions, was crowded to the limit all day and furnished a fine frolic for both young and old. While the day was taken up with diversions of various kinds and the Industrial School band's varied program, the big events were in the evening. The day closed with a blaze of glory the long pyrotechnic display, a gift of the Olds Motor Works, lasting fully an a half.

The soldiers and sailors and their and sweethearts were queted royally by the women of the community, the Odd Fellow hall being used to feast the guests. The reunion of old timers was another feature of the day. The celebration, which had a double purpose, brought together many old friends and neighbors separated for years. The committee, of which Hart was chairman, has been highly complimented on the entertainment and the manner in which the program was carried out. The ball game was called at 1 a.

Correction A typographical error was responsible for a statement in Wilde conservatory of music advertisement in Saturday's paper to the effect that this institution was "Free from expensive schemes and correspondence courses." This was not an intentional reflection on local music teachers and should have read, "A school free from expensive schemes and correspondence courses."

SERVICE RINGS ARE APPARENTLY LIKED Former service men from this county, now scattered over the state have been flocking to the offices of Ingham county war board to get rings which have been made for them. Since the arrival of the rings last Thursday an extra staff of clerks has been kept busy from 8 in the morning till 10 on the records of men applying' tor rings. The offices will continue to be open at night the remainder of this week in order to enable men who can't get in during the day to obtain the souvenirs.

It will not be necessary to call in alphabetical order any longer. A complete record of each man's service is being taken by board when the rings are applied for. One copy of this will be forwarded to the state board, when the lists are closed, and another copy will be kept by the county board. It is estimated that nearly rings have been given outhousand the present time.

THE WEATHER PA From office boy to president, there is always a thrill in "Pay Day." Do you know what is in your pay envelope? Something more than money! Do you know that you are in it? Ever since last pay-day you have spent your time, energy, strength and thought in order to see another pay-day. All that is left of these last few days is in your envelope the price of you. How have you planned to use it? Surely you would not deliberately plan to spend it all; these earning days must be saving days too. Bring part of your money to our Savings Window No.

Back in the Atlantic to states whether where labor unions affilicontroversles rage as ated with the American Federation of Labor should be recognized, conditions seem to the westerner quite tame.

For instance, Seattle Times. the wealthiest newspaper here, which could no more be pected of an interest in disorder than the New York Times, had leading editorial today practically justifying the complaint of Eastern laborers who want the unions to recognized in the steel industry. far beyond the stage of merely reeognizing labor unions has the Pacific Coast situation gotten that it is here largely a question of standing by the American Federation of Labor prevent the I.

it feared, would mean direct action and Bolshevism. But it cannot be said that all the men in the American Federation Labor out here are conservatives. Perhaps it is the contagion of radicalism or the desire to prevent their authority and position from being uprooted by agitating radicals but the men who went to see President Wilson at his hotel on Sunday talked as some of the radicals might have talked. They presented arguments concerning the release what they termed. "Political and their persistence along lines which the radicals have agitated gave an impression not wholly different from their more aggressive brethren.

But the hope and confidence of Seattle seems to be dependent upon the wisdom of such men for the present anyway because they are for law and order and differentiated from the direct action- ists. Labor Has Influence. But Seattle is not like eastern cities. Labor conditions are entirely different. The labor group is much more audible and influential.

For Instance, they publish a daily newspaper which circulates among hundreds of thousands of workers in this section. On front page of the Seattle Union Record, labor's organ. there was printed in flaming letters on Mr. Wilson's arrisal a series of questions full of innuendo and demanding the immediate repeal of the espionage law, the release of Tom Mooney and others, "political prisoners," the withdrawal of American forces from Russia, and ation of the refusal of passports to Americans wishing to visit Russia, support of the Plumb plan and, finally, this query: "Why do you not Weather Bureau, East Lansing.

To date no food has been delivered at the postoffice and no intimation has been received by officials as to when it will be delivered. The chief reason for the falling off in the number of orders is said to be due to the competition at the city hall. A truckload of roulette they are in this day and machines and other gambling devices, were taken up by a squad of state police under Captain Charles Towne last Saturday night at Niles, and warrants for a half dozen men on chargesued operating gambling places.

The places included a gambling club and several cigar stores and pool rooms. There was no liquor found, in any of the places raided.

There follows a long editorial condemning the postmaster general for dismissing employes from the postal service for activ. ity in organizing unions and a long discussion supposedly of grievances of American labor and causes of cial unrest in the Pacific northwest but curiously enough not a little space is giyen to the Russian tion with a plain undercurrent of sympathy with the Russian Bolshevists. The people of Seattle have been overrun with propaganda about the Russian question and responsible people here tell me they have been at a loss to know how to fight it because of the uncertainty of the American government's position.

President Wilson's plain speaking on his western trip, his denunciation of the rule of the 34 Bolsheviki commissioners in Petrograd and Moscow. therefore has had an aflirmative elfect here. It has stimulated those who are trying to squelch in the United States and given them the impression that they will nave the full force of the federal government behind them if necessary. Keep People Distrustful. The president in his speech at Helena talked about radicalism and said plainly that agitation which had for its object the curing existing wrong by political means should not be molested but should encouraged.

Some of the newspapermen traveling with the president thought this was a plain stimulus to the leas elements who would use the president's words excuse for their campaign of agitation. inquiry in Seattle what one might have reupposed would be food for the radicals or at least good headlines for the labor papers here was carefully buried and ignored. The president's overtures so to speak, were concealed from the readers for fear they might renew their confidence the president. For it is bor's policy to keep the rank and file distrustful of the president and cynical of his promises, nor are they for this same reason putting much emphasis on the capital and labor conference soon to be held in Washington. The I.

W. and large boales of other laboring men are apathetie about that conference. A typical question addressed to President Wilson which reveals the attitude the main labor paper in Seattle for instance is this: "Why do you not occasionaily gest to employers they pay the wages or grant the conditions demanded by labor pending the calling of an industrial conference instead of continually asking labor to make the sacrifices?" The average easterner would ably argue that President Wilson had been very friendly to labor throughout his administration and it is because of that fact that he is 80 often criticised by conservatives in Democratic and Republican parties. But out here the editorials speeches of the labor group make Mr. Wilson out to be a Tory of the most tyrannical stripe, suppressing free speech, "torturing" political prisoners, offending the workers of Russia, and participating in an alleged miscarriage of justico with respect to numerous labor martyrs.

This then is the atmosphere in which President Wilson found himself at Seattle--an atmosphere of class friction with an apprehension of disorder that is not imaginary undrenarchy Tacoma is Loyal. Perhaps it was the turbulence of the mob--friendly though it proved ito be--which threw Mr. Wilson off steady poise for his speech in Seattle was disconnected and devoid of any new argument. It was at Tacoma that the president made his best speech. He made his audience gasp as he recited the fearful cost in men and money of the late war and a spantaneous outburst of proval greeted his reading of the final paragraph of his famous war message of April, 1917.

It was a passage printed on Liberty Loan posters everywhere throughout the war and Wilson's point is that when he made his address to gress, Republicans Democrats alike and issued statements afterwards declaring that the president had truly spoken the wish of the American people. So the president repeated the phrases in which he had pledged America to fight for the liberty of small nations and the establishment of a concert of power to preserve the peace of the world, namely a partnership of nations. The Tacoma audience and the crowds gave Mr. Wilson evider.ce upon evidence of their sympathy and approval but it would be difficult for anyone to analyze whether the riotous clamor in Seattle was a demonstration for the League of Nations or a demonstration of the social unrest which Mr. Wilson has been arguing would spread throughout the whole United States if the peace treaty is not soon disposed of and governments and peoples given a settled basis on which to calculate their social and economic future.

Hester Haze Is Widely Mourned Hundreds Crowd to Do Homage to Deceased Girl's Memory. Never before did the little yellow canaries in their gilded cages sing quite so sweetly as they did Sunday afternoon at the nome of Dr. and Mrs. H. A.

Haze, 213 West Main st, It was the afternoon of the funeral services for Hester Haze. who, on Friday a afternoon was "made nappier than ever before."

The remains were surCall rounded by girl friends and sisters of her school society, who had come to know her so intimately. The entire membership of all the schooi social organizations, whose members she knew or with which she was identified. were present.

There were many who came in last acknowledgbent of kindly deed done by the dead girl she went her cheery way through life.

Everything was carried out exactly as Hester Haze, herself, had been wished it. planned The by entire her and services she had had left a brief message for each of her mtimate friends.

Two great columns of American beauty roses bent to part the casket. The girlish remains were clad in a white dress which was Miss Haze's favorite while alive. Following the service the body was conveyed to Mt. Hope. Large baskets of roses outlined the petalstrewn pathway at the cemetery and behind these stood the members of the dead girl's school, society whom she had known The interior of receiving vault was bower of roses.

Every wall end even the doors were covered. In consonance with the last wishes of the departed girl there was absent wholly Haze had evidences said of that mourning. the outfes; her death would be the happiest hour of her life. "This has been my happiest year." she remarked Friday, just before the end. "and this the happiest day of all." Her mother was dressed all in white.

Mrs. Haze was about to put on the cenventional black when the thought occurred to her such a garb might not be in keeping with the wishes of ner daughter. So, instead, she put on the dress of white which Hester laze had always admired. "When I am gone and you are lonesome and miss me." she said to her mother Friday, "when you think am not here--the house will be filled with Friends who knew her well marked that her influence could not but cause them to live up to their highest ideals.
