The modern "flapper" is a result and
not a cause. She wears only the thing-s

NOT SO BAD AS PREDICTED
Immediately after the sleet storm
last winter the hearts of the residents
of our city were grieved over the damage to the beautiful shade trees along
the streets. Clare ia proud of her shaded streets and-well has reason to be.
Now that the leavs are out these trees
do not look near as bad as predicted.
Take for instance the trees surrounding the beautiful residence of Win. H,
Bicknell on McEwan Street. Here is a
residence that attracts the eye of the
visitor to our city.
