January 23rd Olare Study Club
met CTith Mia. Anderson. It being
Qfl-cero' Day tbe program wae in
charge of tbe officers. After tbe re-
P.ort of the Secretary, Corresponding
Secretary and Treasurer, the President, Mro. Anderson, gave her address.
The election of officers for the en-
•ouing year wa3 as follows:
President, Mrn. Anderson
Vice President, Mrs Caple
Rebording Seoretaiy, Mrs. Tibbils
Corresponding Seo'y. Mrs. Mulder
Treasurer, Mrs Harris
A Silver Tea was then served after
which Club adjourned to meet Jan*
u'arv SQ with Mrs. Mater.
Following we print the President's
address:
Another year buB passed and left
its record of our work. .
What the record of your President'!
work has been I shall leave you to
judge. One half of the old year's program is finished, and another half of
this year's vork. Personally I believe !» president's work will be more
rffioient as we now have our by-laws.
Each president completing her
year's program, There is a saying
you can not plenso all the people all
the time nor some of tbe people &}i
the time, but if I have pleased all o£
you some of the time it is worth the
effort.
Having been so rortunate as to have
been tbe delegate to the State Convention, I feel that a president is
100% more efficient than before attending. There you obtain the vision
of whole and the part we play in the
making of tbe wbole function harmoniously abd expediently. You
realize the importance of taking
action on these communications as
tbey oome from the different apartments. As Mrs. Russell, our State
President, stated in her talk to us
"The dreams or today, become the
realities of tomorrow."
Please go back with me ten yearsin
the Ciub's history.
I bave found a program of 1911-12.
Tbe Club comprised twenty active
members and two associate A limit-,
ed membership of twenty-five. It
hardly seemed possible, too, when I
counted the members still active
today.
There are just eigbt of tbem left.
The year's program was aufflcient
t?ork for the year.
Since then wa have become Federated, also tbe limit removed frpm the
membership list.
From a club ot 20 members we have
grown to 50 members, Time alone
can accomplish the perfect work of
onr dreamo. "A thousand years is a
single day." Let us do our part even
though we are not here to reap the
benefit of our labor.
The Club Woman's part in the program of today has changed so completely since the 19th amendment,
that we are seemingly overwhelmed
with the different places of work
which we are called up to do. We
must readjust our viewpoint in order
tb meet this situation properly. As
Mrs. Winter said "It is the clubwoman of today with a vision of the tomorrow who isneeded. Having served
ao president for tbe year baa been a
growth for myself. Possibly the
serving has not always been as efficient as might be desired. I can assure you tbat upon entering theranks
as an active member of the Clnb
again my efficiency has greatly in.
creased as a member. Wishing to
tiank those members whose hearty
co-operation has made the year's pro"
gram possible, for after all it is as
Kipling says
"It's not tbe individual, or the army
aa a whole,
But the everlasting teamwork
Of every blooming soul." 0
Let Us keep this in mind through
the coming year and pledge our new
president onr heartiest co-operation.
SHORT SESSION OF
IRCUIT COURT
Owing to an article appearing in
tbe Detroit News a short time ago in
wbipb Secretary of State. Charles J.
DeLand granted what waa at that
time thought to be u lee-way of one
monjbb* in wbifeb to procure auto
licenses, there has been a misunderstanding as there has been no extension of time granted according to Mr.
DeLand.
The seoretary of state 'ea^s tb.at' his
ruling was, tbat anyone who had
owned an automobile for a period of
two years and bad no certificate of
title would not be allowed to run bis
machine after January I without new
license plates. He said at tbe time
that the extension for the securing of
3923 automobile license plates applied
only to those who had not had time
in which to get their certificates of
title, since purchasing their automobiles.
Under this ruling it is expected
that those who have certificates of
title and attempt to drive their machines on thair 1922 license plates run
the risk of prosecution.
Those wbo have purchased cars
and baye not as yet had the opportunity or time to procure their oer-
own;tificates or title will be allowed an
extension of time but others., who
have .bad their certificates of title for
some time and have neglected to. procure license plates, under the impression tbat they also were Included in
tb8 extension of time will face trouble
in the courts, it ia aaid unless they
get their 1923 license plates at onSe.
Few Gages Tried as Others
Were Not Ready. One
Divorce Granted. ■
The Circuit Oourt.in an adjourned
sesBion'from December convened at
Harrison Monday, but on account of

niea to file briefs, and accordingly no
decision was rendered at this time,
In the case of Ensign Furgeson vs.
Loreaa Furgeaon, divorce, a 'degree

ENDURING INFLUENCE.
"We see not in this life the end of
human actions. Their influence never dies. In ever widening circles it
reaches beyond the grave. Death removes us from this to an eternal
world. Time determines what, shall
be our condition in tbat world.
Every morning when we. go forth we
lay the moulding band upon onr
destiny and every evening when we
have dope, we have left a deathless
impression upon our character, ^We
touch not a wire but vibrates in eternity. We breathe not a thought but

especially think of these things and
let every One remember tbat in this

Juuu'a Geo. D, Alden, Of Boston,gave
an <-xcellont. tielplul Jind' much up-
pneiated lecture at the high school
last Friday evening.
During his discourse Judge Alden
stated that every age has its distinguishing marj. which reveals theepir-
it o| the age The history Of America has been marked- by four epochs,
nsmely: the age of tbe Puritans with
the spirvt of'Ilberty and loyalty; the
age of '76 with the,spirit of humanity
and hopor; the age of civil strife,
with the spirit of humanity and honor; the age of gold with the spirit dl
graft and greed, which marks these
last fifty years. He continued people
like to have other folks reformed.
We each, in our place, can reform
and do Our part well. If we want
friei.d-ti.ip, we must, give friendship.
Today our country has turned from
manhood and spiritual ideas to a
world of grafters. Our god is gold.
We blame men for-.graft, for d iing
in a large way what we do o . a small
scale.
In tbe opinion of the Judge it is.
wrong to put sand in sugar and water
in the milk—tbat is too muoh. You
should put a ca.h register on the
church collection box. This was in
New England, he said, but nil
grasped the ide^a. You can never re-
fu.rm a person by criticism. What
tbis houi. needs is an Individual return to sauity und old fashioned
standards. The Spirit of t lis nee is
marked by dishonesty in business,
corruption in politics, unhappiness
in marriage and indifference In'religion, Onr complaint is not that the
rich have too much but that we haven't enough. The central part of civilization is Christianity and Christianity's central point is Christ. The institution tbat upholds all tbis is tbe
church and he asks, "What are yon
doing to support tbis institution?"
Your parents left the heritage of a
strong church, and you are living on
that heritage, what are you passing
on to tbe next generation? Men of
Clare, notice that. The worjld of today i'b not ao much hit .rested in doctrine and creed as it is in Christ
crucified and its need of His life in
relation to yours here, now and hereafter. We need lees theology and
more Ohristianily. We should ban
isb the present spirit which threatens,
a great division in tbe Christian
church today, .
Politically we need less legislation
and more religion,
Commercially, what shall we do to
be saved? He quoted Roger Babson,
a great writer of today as saying, before a great meeting of tbe nation's
richest men: "Business relations rest
on Integrity and integrity rests on
faith in Christ." BeadBabson's books
by all means. There is a woeful ignorance of tbe Bible today, and comparatively few people know tbe uplifting and spiritual power of prayer.
In days gone by the Bible wns read
every 0ay in tbe home and the voire
of prayer was beard daily. There is
a great naed of a return of church
worship, and the "Gori of onr
Fathers." We need tbe light tbat
shineth from tbe cross of Calvary to
purify politics and business.
Referring to domestic affairs he
spoke, of women. Yon cannot recognize tbe modern woman, Eve
might, apart from her drees—they
seem to be. Tbey don't need a washing machine butthoy nepd a sewing
machine and if they don't use it the
husband should bave a " thrashing
machine. We need, not more, but
better babies—than othera were. So-
called divorces are the repults of unwise marriages. -The words Stop,
Look and Listen, should b.e heeded.
At tbis time be rooeated Edward
Guest's.poem "Chum" for the men's,
benefit. Fathers are too cold and
undemonstrative. They Rhonld tell
their boys that they love them and
show them as well. It is not manlv
to hide ..our affection from yonrJoved
ones at home. Tell them. Let there
be more affection at home and life
will be Bweeter and happier far.
Boys, are-yon as good as your mothers think you are?
"I'd be as happy as a clam, '
If I whs as good as my mother thinks
I am."

THE BIBLE.
A Short Epitome By Clayton Keith.
Tbe Bible is the word of-God, it declares the state of man,
the way of salvation, the doom of sinners and tbe happiness of believers.
It's doctrines are holy, its precepts are binding, its histories are true and its decisions are immutable,
Read it to be wise, believe it to be safe and practice it to
be holy.
It contains light to direct you, food to support you and
comfort to cheer you: It is the traveler^ map, the pilgrim's staff, the pilot's compaBa, the, soldier's sword and
the Christian's charter. .
Hero paradise is restored, beayen opened, and tbe gates
of bell disclosed. .Christ is its grand subject", onr
good its design, and tbe glory of,God its end.
It should MIL the memory, rule tbe heart and guide the feet.
Road iti slowlyr frequently, prayerfully. It is .a mine of
wealth, a paradise of glory and a river of pleasure. It is
given you in life, will be'opened at the judgment and be remembered forever. , " .
It involves the highest responsibility,
est labor and condemns all who trifle

January 23rd Olare Study Club met CTith Mia. Anderson. It being Qfl-cero' Day tbe program wae in charge of tbe officers. After tbe re- P.ort of the Secretary, Corresponding Secretary and Treasurer, the President, Mro. Anderson, gave her address. The election of officers for the en- •ouing year wa3 as follows: President, Mrn. Anderson Vice President, Mrs Caple Rebording Seoretaiy, Mrs. Tibbils Corresponding Seo'y. Mrs. Mulder Treasurer, Mrs Harris A Silver Tea was then served after which Club adjourned to meet Jan* u'arv SQ with Mrs. Mater. Following we print the President's address: Another year buB passed and left its record of our work. . What the record of your President'! work has been I shall leave you to judge. One half of the old year's program is finished, and another half of this year's vork. Personally I believe !» president's work will be more rffioient as we now have our by-laws. Each president completing her year's program, There is a saying you can not plenso all the people all the time nor some of tbe people &}i the time, but if I have pleased all o£ you some of the time it is worth the effort. Having been so rortunate as to have been tbe delegate to the State Convention, I feel that a president is 100% more efficient than before attending. There you obtain the vision of whole and the part we play in the making of tbe wbole function harmoniously abd expediently. You realize the importance of taking action on these communications as tbey oome from the different apartments. As Mrs. Russell, our State President, stated in her talk to us "The dreams or today, become the realities of tomorrow." Please go back with me ten yearsin the Ciub's history. I bave found a program of 1911-12. Tbe Club comprised twenty active members and two associate A limit-, ed membership of twenty-five. It hardly seemed possible, too, when I counted the members still active today. There are just eigbt of tbem left. The year's program was aufflcient t?ork for the year. Since then wa have become Federated, also tbe limit removed frpm the membership list. From a club ot 20 members we have grown to 50 members, Time alone can accomplish the perfect work of onr dreamo. "A thousand years is a single day." Let us do our part even though we are not here to reap the benefit of our labor. The Club Woman's part in the program of today has changed so completely since the 19th amendment, that we are seemingly overwhelmed with the different places of work which we are called up to do. We must readjust our viewpoint in order tb meet this situation properly. As Mrs. Winter said "It is the clubwoman of today with a vision of the tomorrow who isneeded. Having served ao president for tbe year baa been a growth for myself. Possibly the serving has not always been as efficient as might be desired. I can assure you tbat upon entering theranks as an active member of the Clnb again my efficiency has greatly in. creased as a member. Wishing to tiank those members whose hearty co-operation has made the year's pro" gram possible, for after all it is as Kipling says "It's not tbe individual, or the army aa a whole, But the everlasting teamwork Of every blooming soul." 0 Let Us keep this in mind through the coming year and pledge our new president onr heartiest co-operation. SHORT SESSION OF IRCUIT COURT Owing to an article appearing in tbe Detroit News a short time ago in wbipb Secretary of State. Charles J. DeLand granted what waa at that time thought to be u lee-way of one monjbb* in wbifeb to procure auto licenses, there has been a misunderstanding as there has been no extension of time granted according to Mr. DeLand. The seoretary of state 'ea^s tb.at' his ruling was, tbat anyone who had owned an automobile for a period of two years and bad no certificate of title would not be allowed to run bis machine after January I without new license plates. He said at tbe time that the extension for the securing of 3923 automobile license plates applied only to those who had not had time in which to get their certificates of title, since purchasing their automobiles. Under this ruling it is expected that those who have certificates of title and attempt to drive their machines on thair 1922 license plates run the risk of prosecution. Those wbo have purchased cars and baye not as yet had the opportunity or time to procure their oer- own;tificates or title will be allowed an extension of time but others., who have .bad their certificates of title for some time and have neglected to. procure license plates, under the impression tbat they also were Included in tb8 extension of time will face trouble in the courts, it ia aaid unless they get their 1923 license plates at onSe. Few Gages Tried as Others Were Not Ready. One Divorce Granted. ■ The Circuit Oourt.in an adjourned sesBion'from December convened at Harrison Monday, but on account of several cases not belrtg ready, tbe term was a abort one and was adjourned Tuesday night.

JOHN HICKEY DIES AT GLADWIN WEDNESDAY Former Clare Boy Succumbs Stomach Trouble After a Week's Illness. to ENDURING INFLUENCE. "We see not in this life the end of human actions. Their influence never dies. In ever widening circles it reaches beyond the grave. Death removes us from this to an eternal world. Time determines what, shall be our condition in tbat world. Every morning when we. go forth we lay the moulding band upon onr destiny and every evening when we have dope, we have left a deathless impression upon our character, ^We touch not a wire but vibrates in eternity. We breathe not a thought but reports at tbe throne of God. Let us especially think of these things and let every One remember tbat in this world where character ia in its formation state, .it is a 'serious thing to think, to speak, to aot." The .above was contributed by Evangelist Miller having quoted it in the public school, Tbey requested Hb publication, A 75c Doros thermometer free with every 83,00 purchase, this week only.

D, Alden, Of Boston,gave an <-xcellont. tielplul Jind' much up- pneiated lecture at the high school last Friday evening. During his discourse Judge Alden stated that every age has its distinguishing marj. which reveals theepir- it o the age The history Of America has been marked- by four epochs, nsmely: the age of tbe Puritans with the spirvt of'Ilberty and loyalty; the age of '76 with the,spirit of humanity and hopor; the age of civil strife, with the spirit of humanity and honor; the age of gold with the spirit dl graft and greed, which marks these last fifty years. He continued people like to have other folks reformed. We each, in our place, can reform and do Our part well. If we want friei.d-ti.ip, we must, give friendship. Today our country has turned from manhood and spiritual ideas to a world of grafters. Our god is gold. We blame men for-.graft, for d iing in a large way what we do o . a small scale. In tbe opinion of the Judge it is. wrong to put sand in sugar and water in the milk—tbat is too muoh. You should put a ca.h register on the church collection box. This was in New England, he said, but nil grasped the ide^a. You can never re- fu.rm a person by criticism. What tbis houi. needs is an Individual return to sauity und old fashioned standards. The Spirit of t lis nee is marked by dishonesty in business, corruption in politics, unhappiness in marriage and indifference In'religion, Onr complaint is not that the rich have too much but that we haven't enough. The central part of civilization is Christianity and Christianity's central point is Christ. The institution tbat upholds all tbis is tbe church and he asks, "What are yon doing to support tbis institution?" Your parents left the heritage of a strong church, and you are living on that heritage, what are you passing on to tbe next generation? Men of Clare, notice that. The worjld of today i'b not ao much hit .rested in doctrine and creed as it is in Christ crucified and its need of His life in relation to yours here, now and hereafter. We need lees theology and more Ohristianily. We should ban isb the present spirit which threatens, a great division in tbe Christian church today, . Politically we need less legislation and more religion, Commercially, what shall we do to be saved? He quoted Roger Babson, a great writer of today as saying, before a great meeting of tbe nation's richest men: "Business relations rest on Integrity and integrity rests on faith in Christ." BeadBabson's books by all means. There is a woeful ignorance of tbe Bible today, and comparatively few people know tbe uplifting and spiritual power of prayer. In days gone by the Bible wns read every 0ay in tbe home and the voire of prayer was beard daily. There is a great naed of a return of church worship, and the "Gori of onr Fathers." We need tbe light tbat shineth from tbe cross of Calvary to purify politics and business. Referring to domestic affairs he spoke, of women. Yon cannot recognize tbe modern woman, Eve might, apart from her drees—they seem to be. Tbey don't need a washing machine butthoy nepd a sewing machine and if they don't use it the husband should bave a " thrashing machine. We need, not more, but better babies—than othera were. So- called divorces are the repults of unwise marriages. -The words Stop, Look and Listen, should b.e heeded. At tbis time be rooeated Edward Guest's.poem "Chum" for the men's, benefit. Fathers are too cold and undemonstrative. They Rhonld tell their boys that they love them and show them as well. It is not manlv to hide ..our affection from yonrJoved ones at home. Tell them. Let there be more affection at home and life will be Bweeter and happier far. Boys, are-yon as good as your mothers think you are? "I'd be as happy as a clam, ' If I whs as good as my mother thinks I am."
