Knocked   Into  The Gutter  by Auto.
Badly Bruised.   Nothing Very
Serious as yet.
On Monday morning, Louise, the elr
even year old child of Dr. and Mrs.
A. E. Mulder while coming down town
met with a very painful accident. It
seems she had reached the corner of
McEwen and Fifth Street Avest and
turned east on the street crossing
when a car coning from the north
struck her knocking her down into
the gutter, the front wheel passing
over her. She was taken home and
Dr. J. B. Sanford called. Upon medical investigation it was found that
no bones had been broken, but she is
badly bruised From the knee to the
ankle the skin is entirely torn off and
one elbow is cut, besides other bruises.
The old saying is to lock the barn
after the horse is stolen, but tlie Courier is of the opinion that the city officials might better lock the barn before the horse Is stolen. The case o.
this little child shouW be a warning
to the ci£y offcials in regard the park
ing of cars. On this particular morning,
and no different from any other niorn-
* ii_ in our city,-at the corner of Fifth
and McEwen Streets care were park-,
ed up close to the crossing. This little
/^rii-tfai'tttd;^^
to "go the full length of the car parked
against the crossing, before she could
see up the street as to whether it
-was safe to cross, When she had gone
the length of the car she discovered
a car coming from the north and started back to the curb.   The driver of
the car it seems lost his head and in
stead of turning tlie car away from
the direction the child was going he
turned the ear in the same direction
and consequently the car knocked he-
down. This could all have been avoided had the city an ordinance relative
to the parking of cars.   The Courier
Would  suggest that the city council
pass an ordinance to the effect that
no car shall he parked less than 40
feet away from all crossings in every
direction.   Let's see how this would
have worked out in this case had this
ordinance been in  effect   The child
could then have .seen the car coming
from the north, and likewse the drive;
of the car could have seen the child
Jn time to stop his car before it struck
her, but as it was, with the ears park-
,ed close to the crossing, neither the
child nor the driver saw the danger
before it was too late to avoid the
accident.   Would it not be better to
pass an ordinance, to the effect that
no cars shal be parked within 40 feet
of any crossing in any direction? In
this case the driver can see in both
directions,   also can   the   pedestrian.
Think the matter over, Mr. Mayor and
Mr. Councilman.

mt RAGES MT. PLEASANT
Washington, June 16,—Republican
members of the house merchant marine committee are understood fo have
virtually agreed to oppose the propos-
tion to stop tiie sale of liquor on American ships by denying the federal aid
provided in the subsidy bill to ships
.mi which sale is to be made. Another
intendment to the bill proposing a fine
i'or the sale of liquor on s-hip in a voyage starting or ending in an American
port was before the committee today
for consideration.
The latter proposal offered by Representative Edmonds, Republican,
Pennsylvania, as a substitute for the
Jir.st amendment presented by Representative Bankhead, Democrat, Alabama, and discussed informally by the
.'oimViittee yesterday, would have the
effect of putting American ships on
a parity with those of other nations
which did not have prohibition. In ad-
dtion for the first and second offeree,
■ he final penalty would be to prohibit
the entrance of a ship to American
ports.
After the proposal was discussed by
inajortiy committeemen yesterday the
view was expressed in some quarters
that is conflicted with many of the
nation's commercial treaties.
Meanwhile, in the executive branch,
although officals were undertsood to
be still dieussing the question today,
there had been no developments.

Only a few days remain before the

yet more tjian 2G0,30d Michigan motor-

of title for their cars as provided by
the law. Failure to procure a title is.
under the law, a misdemeanor, and
punishable by a finp of not I'.-ss than
$25 nor more than $1,000.
On account of tho thousand-; at
titles yet to he made and the limited
time before July 1, it will be a physical impossibility for the Department
of State to issue all titles within the
prescribed time, even though the applications were forwarded at once.
After July 1 no new car can be licensed until the owner has a certificate of title, and no second-hand car
can be sold or transferred until the
.■ertiflcate of title is properly transferred anl the application for transfer
.if license attached to the same with
the fee of ?2 have been received. If
the general pubic will observe this
rule strictly and not send in either

the other, they will save considerable
time and inconvenience, to say nothing of the work that will b_ saved in
the office.
"When next license time arrives,
every motorist will have to produce at
the branch office where he applies for
license a certificate of title for the car
which he attempts to license. Motorists aro advised to get their titles and
file them them away where they will

they went joyously on their way
through the sand and through tho
woods to the lake. Upon their arrival
Mrs. Gerow had a bountiful supply of
flsh ready to fry, which with the pot

ORTHO BOWLTON
6 2t.
Mr. Albert W. Atwoad, one of the
h.st known writers of finance and investment, has recently written a very
important article for the Saturday Evening Post under tlie title "Protecting
t!.e Small Investor." In the course of
that article he writes of Treasury Savings Certificates, using the sub-title,
"An Ideal investment," of which he
says:
"Jt cannot be statfed wifch too much
emphasis that anyone w h o really
wants a safe investment with a good
interest retifrn can secure the same
without the slightest dffieulty, On De;
comber iiftoenth last tlie ,wjf6 ot the
President -o. th^'tiritte^tetaJtas-.*.««•-■
chased from Mr, Mellon,' Secretary of
the Treasury, the llrst Treasury Savings Certificate sold by the United
States Government. These aro now on
sale at ail post offices, and many
banks, and can be had by mail direct
tmm the Treasury Department. Tiiey
pay 25 per cent on the money invested
tov a five-year period. They are guaranteed by the Government to pay this
figure, and guaranteed against any decline in price. They are beyond question the safest and surest investment
."-.valuable to any Amercan citizen, and
if thoy are not good, then nothing in
tho world is.
•Thp.ro. has been a lot of talk and
-•heap platitudes about the necessity
aud advantages of thrift and savings,
hut a man cannot dig a garden without
tools and he cannot save without a se-
■■ui-o place to put his money. A splendid work is clone by tho savings banks^
but they do not cover the entire country by any means. There are million-.*
of people Whom they do pot reack.Life
insurance covers H"" even wider field,
but it is only partially a savings and
investment proposition. The Government is the only agency that can ap-
perl to everybody, ancl at. last, after,
much experimenting during ancl following the war, it has devised a permanent form of small investment
which is simple, convenient and which
meets the needs of all except the wealthiest classes.
"These certificates are always sold
at the same price, $20, ?S0 and $800.
In Ave years they are paid off at $26,
$100 and $1000, respectively. This is
4 1-2 per centf interest compounded
semi-annually. It is a 25 per _e\nt in
five years. There is no staits or local
tax on these certificates and no normal Federal income tax. Any individual canbuy as much as $5,000 each ye.ar
and the same amount is available to
any member of his family. They can
he redeemed *\t any time before the
Ave years are up, at the (villi amount
paid plus 3 1-2 per cent interest, by
sending them to tho Treasury Department, Since the name of the owner
is registered at Washington the loss
of the certificates doQS not mean the
loss of tiie inve*#'ueat. There is no
risk, dejpreei-tion jn value or promoter's or broker's commission to pay,
there is a liberal interest and immje-
diate cash withdrawal value"
WONDERFUL BALL GAME
PLAYED LAST SUNDAY
Rosebush Boys Are Hard Hitters,
Better Game Next Time.
For the love of Mike did you see
last Sunday's ball game? Was it a
ball game? Was that the team that
played the one run game at Gladwin
the Sunday before? Our'ball team last
Sunday played like a bunch of Indians. They all wont up in a balloon
with tlie exception of two players. It;
was the rankest game'of ball ever
played on the home grounds, and the
quicker our boys forget that sort of
playing the better. Boys, you cannot,
win a ball game by getting mad.
There are two stages of madness, one
is a crazy mad and the other is madness of determination to win, The kind
where you grit your teeth, when the
"ump" renders a decision against you-
and play all the harder to win, is called "madness of determination " The
other kind is where you lose your
head, go pouting around, take a ball
from the opposing team and endeavor
to call a runner out, kick on the "ump"
and in general make an ass of yourself, that is called crazy mad. This
kind of madness gets a player no
place, except in bad with the fair
minded fans and "umps.*'
Our baH boys can play ball when
they hold their temper, but when they
go crazy as they did last Sunday, the
balloon goes up and the game goe**
bad. Rosebush plays a good game of
ball, but this does not signify that
they can beat our team. They are a
good bunch of hitters and are. the makings of a team that will be well up In-
front when the season ends.
Well, boys we are through with lasfc
Sunday's -ball game, and that sort of
playing. Now, let' get down' to business aud trim Harrison next Sunday
oh tile-sir Wn grounds. You boys can
±rim them-* Hold '-your h__<V_-:S_-ll-i
cision, ^(in. your opinion) and get acquainted with'the madness of determination.

DOINGS OF THE
SUPERVISORS
Some of the   Most important
Features Happening,
Mr. Neil Cook, Supervisor from Winter field offered- a resolution before
the Board that the Board of Super-
vsors petition the Dept. of Conservation for the opening of the season for
killing rabbits, with no restriction as
to the number^ This, action was endorsed by acting Deputy Game Warden Petti--- and the Clare County
Sportsmen's Club, and was acted upon favorably by the Board.
The rabbits are becoming a pest to
the farmers in regard to their crops.
This petition, if successful* will mean
the slaughtering of rabbits the year
round.
Supervisor A.E. Achard of this city
who represented the County at Lansing before the State Tax Commission
two years ago, has again been appointed by the Board to the same position
This is for the purpose of State Tax
equalisation.

Amtrus the tax rolls of the majority of
the townshp supervisors w'eres received at Harrison several, days- prior ta
the opening of the season and were-,
all footed up by the office force of the.
