HONORED THE DEAD HEROES.
fllcpipri al Day Appropriately Observed in
Glare by G A. R. Post and Ci___-T_s, -
!No special effort or program was arranged for the observance of Memorial day in Clare this year, yet all the
people with one accord, as it were,
turned out to pay their tribute of love
to the men who were willing to sacri?
flee their lives that the Union might
live.
The Memorial sermon was preached
last Sunday at the Congregational
church, the services being conducted
by Bevs. Boyl and Choate. The
church was beautifully decorated with
flowers and a large number gathered
to hear the high tribute which was
paid to the patriots in the sermon
preached.
The decoration of tlie graves occurred on Monday, a number of the post
going in the morning to the Vernon
cemetery where several of the boys
who wore the blue are burled. In the
afternoon the posband citizens marched to Cherry G-rove cemef-erj where
appropriate services were held. The
school also marched to the cemetery
in a body, and sung two or three patriotic songs. Short bub good addresses were made and-an appropriate recitation was made bv Buddie SchafTer,
of the grammar department.
Ib is good tu know that Memorial
day has a permanent place in the American heart and will not be crowded
out of it while veterans survive or
sons of veterans remain. After that
—trust posberi by to remember bhose
who died that the Union might live.
A DAY OF SPORT!
SUCHWILI. BE THE-FIREMEN'S SECOND
ANNUAL YIELD DAY IN CLARE,
Wednesday,.) imc 16, Is the Date.
VOLUNTEERS   WANTED.
200  Volunteers   Wanted   to   Rcpell the
Enemy Who Will Attack This City
During the Reunion.
Thinks and reads, he has time for both; it is true
that the hardest task and the one most poorly done is the
sharpening of knives and tools. Without sharp*knives the
best, machine does poor work, while with knives sharp, the
poor machine does good work.
.—3* A  careful investigation of the Olizbe Tool and
*$%M_le Grinder will convince you that it is the best nachine
ever made for the purpose.   For grinding Mower or Reaper
knives it is a decided success.
I ALSO HANDLE A
i-Tootli .cultivator
Which is Superior to All Others.
Call at the Warehouse and examine the best and largest-
stock o£ Farin Tools and Implements
ever brought into the county.
Awake, ye freemen, attend the call
to arms!
The euemy, consisting of several
hundred infantry and about 200 cavalry, the latter from Midland, will attack and attempt to capture this city
one of the first nights of the reunion,
which is to be held in* this city, September 14,15, lfi and IT.
In order to make a proper defense
and rep.ll fche enemy, if possiblc.it
will be necessary that we have, beside
the infantry, about two hundred cavalrymen. The enemy intends to flght
their wav into this city from the
south, step by step, right through the
streets, and up to our camp ground.
Our infantry will becomposed of old
soldiers'who have seen actual warfare,
but we want the cavalry to consist of
young men. Do you want to join?
If so, hand in your name to W. S.
Cooley, who will drill the company.
If you don't mean business don't hand
in your name, as there will be lots of
hard work in the way of drilling, etc.,
and getting the horses used to the firing. If you will stick to ib—hand in
your name at once that the acbive
preparabions may be begun. Young
men who live, in bhe counbry near
enough to Clare to atbend the drill,
are invited to join.
Don'b wait—hand in your name,
now. There will be lots of fun in ib
and the cavalry company, well drilled,
will be a greab feature of the reunion.

bempt may be outdone.
