Of aU the pleasing pictures
That hang on memory's wall,
The one ot the dear old school house
Seemeth the best pf all.
Not because of the studies
5       Which sometimes caused me woe,
Not the little curtaia lectures
Which I never got, Oh, no!
jSfot because of these things
Does my heart remain so true
To my dear old Alma mater
And the yellow and tbe blue.
But 'twas there in that old school house
I went from day to day,
.And swiftly as the moments,
My childhood slipped away.
"Twas there with friends and teachers
Many happy hours were passed,
And among the sweetest memories
My school days now are classed.
And naw that I've entered into
A life with duties new,
I long for our dear old high school,
And the yellow and the blue.
And though from friends and classmates
At last I was forced to part,
Still the chains of sweetest memory
%'' Bind them closely to my heart.
So of all the beautiful pictures
That hang on memory's wall
The one of the dear ola school
Seemeth the best of all.
In the first bright morning of our
lives we glide calmly and rapidly down
the stream of Time and with eager
xS?ands grasp the flowers of pleasure
and enjoyment that adorn its banks.
The tide  bears us on,  the flowers
droop.   All is gone but the memories,
sweet memories,  which   remain   to
cheer, aid and guide us on our way.
The  garden   of   memory   is    often
shaded, yet mingled with the shadows
are many bright gleams of sunshine,
jts      and, like the Prince in the garden of
Par,   we see again our   childhood's
friends and the spot where   many
v -childhood    scenes    were    enacted.
. •There's naught so sweet as memory of
, ihe days that have passed away.
Friends and Classmates are bound by
the golden link of memories arid although death's cold hand may claim
-fts its own loyed ones from our circle,
jfet ever is there the memory of the
loved and lost and the golden link
^Which binds us to earth will ascend
with them to the upper world aad be
united in the land where separation
never comes. In leaving school we
enter into a new life and new duties.
All is changed. All is gone of our
former life except the memories which
remain as bright stars shining out of
the darkness and obscurity of the past
to cheer and guide us on our way. To
the class of 1901 I extend my most
sincere congratulations and it is my
most earnest wish that you, as mv
former classmates, maybe as successful
in your new life as you have in the old.
Of this I am assured. The scenes of
your school days will eyer remain as
the brightest and best in memory's
gallerv.

Richard Zimmerman Held Up by
Tramps Near Lake.
One of the worst hobo depredations
we haye heard of-happened Tuesday
when Eichard Zimmerman was so
badly used, should he survive, he will
not soon forget.
It appears that he had been working
on a P. M. work train near Sears, and
on being discharged went, to Evart to
get his order cashed. Later he was
seen in company with two suspicio'us
looking characters at the depot at
Evart where they boarded an east
bound freight train. Zimmerman was
aext seen by a brakeman on this train
whose attention was attracted by his
groans to the gondola in which he was
prostrated. He was concious enough
to tell the trainmen that two fellows
wanted his money aud not surrendering it up to them, they cut him with
knives, bruised him with stones and
fractured his skull with a big club.
So badly was he hurt that his recovery
is doubtful.
He was taken to Saginaw and is now
in Harper hospital, and his assailants
are not to be found.
Zimmefmon's home used to be Just
north of Loomis, he never having
lived in Olare, bat we are informed by
deputy Sheriff J. L. "-fVelch that his
father since died and that his home
has not since been in Clare county.

There was a time in Cleveland's
administration when many an honest
man sought work and found none, and
was seemingly forced to beg a living
or starve. At a time like that there
was some excuse for the large army of
tramps, and the pitiful tales told
melted the heart of the average housewife, who provided for him. Today
there are none idle except from choice,
and all can get work at fair wages.
The tramps of today are, therefore,
professionals and undeserving of public charity.
There may be a few old ladies in the
land who believe that it is an "act of
charity to give the new century tramp
a "hand-out." Not so. Charity does
not consist in simply giving, it is
wisely giving, and every day brings
news of crime committed by this army
of traveling gentry, which would not
exist did the public not cater to their
wants. To alleviate the evil 1st, don't
give them anytning and 2nd, if this is
not effectual put them at work on the
street (Clare can employ as many as
a half a dozen on her streets) with a
ball and chain on their ankles.
Tramps always avoid work.

Hot His Man.
About a year ago a warrant was
sworn out for one C, O. Fouch of Gladwin on a charge of bigamy, but he was
not to be located" until a short time
ago when the prosecuting attorney
placed a warrant in Sheriff Updegraff's
bands. After a few days' careful inquires he located his man at North
Braking, on the Duluth and South
Shore railroad. He was employed on
a train running between Duluth and
Missawane and on being arrested was
brought to Harrison. He waived examination and gave bonds to apoear
at the September term of circuit
courjt. When our sheriff gets after
them he usually gets them.

An order has been issued by the
postoffice department which takes the
stamp tax off postal money orders.
This reduces the rates to the following
schedule:
Orders tor sums not exceeding $ 3,50    30
Over $ 2.50 and not exceeding    ff.Oo—y..   5c
Over    6.00 and not exceeding io.00    8C
Over  10.00 and not exceeding 20.00  100

The domestic money order offices
are now permitted to issue money
ordeis payable in Canada, Cuba, Hawaii, Porto Eico and the Philippines.
This ought to greatly stimulate the
money order business of the postoffice
department.
A New Word.
The is a teacher in the Brooklyn
public schools who has an item of information she thinks will be of interest to lexicographers. This young
woman had just been drilling a class
of young hopefuls on the variations of
the masculine and feminine forms of
nouns,
"Now," said she, "who will giye me
the feminine of horseman?"
Up went the hand of an 11-year-old
lad.
"Well, what is it, Johnnie?"
"Please, ma'am," he answered,
