BURGLARS ENTER
BUSINKS PLACES
Pere Marquette. Tools Used
to Force Way Through
Windows and Doors.
Early Monday morning thieves entered the Clare Hay, Grain & Bean
Co.'s offices by breaking open two
rear doors and must have been somewhat surprised when they only found
the small sum of 17 cents to pay for
their efforts.
Not being satisfied they carried the
Pere Marquette tools, which they had
taken from the tool shed, and pried
the rear window of the T. W. Dawson
Cigar Store and taking a hammer and
chisel continued to the'safe, which Mr.
Dawson had neglected to lock .the
night before and which afforded easy
picking for them. They took' about
§125.00 and left without even returning the tools to their proper place
Official are working on the case as
it is thought to be the work of local
talent.
Last week Thursday evening the
Sullivan pool room was entered by
breaking a rear window and prying
off the screen. ?4.90 was taken from
the till, but they were kind enough^to
leave ten cents in pennies for change
in the morning.

hold their Memorial at the Congregational church Sunday morning, Juno
24th. Rev.. P. B, Milberr-f vrtll deliver the .address. All "members are
urged to meet at the: hail at 9:30
sharp. ,
Ideal weather greeted the Clare
boys at Gladwin when the when forward to our neighboring city last Sunday. Seldom is it our good luck to
see a game,played as was this one,
both sijles playing almost perfect ball.
Clare allowing one error while Gladwin tell for three. Honors with the
stick were even, both sides getting
but five hits. Odin pitching for the
Clare bpys, was ih fine shape, walking
but one man, allowing only five hits
and striking out one man more than.
Gladwin's pitcher, Foust. Eddie Hubel
of Detroit, who is visiting-his parents
covered the, initial sack for Clare in
excellent shape. While he did not
get any hits, he got one sacrifice hit-
and two stolen bases in two times at
bat. . "Foster .playing short made the
only error credited to Clare but he
came back and redeemed himself with
a double play and two hits. The
team as a whole gave Odin the best of
support and it was no fault of theirs
that Clare lost by a score of 2 to 0.
An error, one walk combined yith
two hits in the seventh gave Gladwin
the two scores she received. A careful study of the following summary
will show that Clare played a better
game than Gladwin and should have
had the game had it not been for the
lucky combination on Gladwin's part
in the seventh.,

WHY NOT A SIDEWALK
' AT UNION DEPOT?
Question Should be One of a
Spirit of Good Will ,in Getting All Parties Concerned Together.
Again the appeal for the sidewalk
at the Onion .depot comes from the
people. This question has been
talked and discussed between the parties concerned many times. About
three years, ago it was agreed between the- city council and the railroad for the city to furnish the cement and gravel and the sidewalk
Would be> built by the railroad employees. This through time was. let
drift and finally dropped,
This is but a question ot again getting all parties concerned together in
a spirit of good will for the improve-
nient and beautifying this end of the
city instead of being compelled to
wade sand or-mud as the season affords.
The expense of the sidewalk divided between the Ann Arbor and Pere
Marquette railroads and the city of
Clare will make but a small item for
each compared with benefits "received
by the traveling public.
Let's get together.

SERMON SUNDAY

Rev, L. L. Hanthorne. of
Mt. Pleasant, to Give Address at High School
Auditorium.
ALL CHURCHES OF CITY-
ARE INVITED TO JOIN
IN UNION SERVICE
Sunday evening at 8:00 o'clock the
annual baccalaureate sermon -yglll be
given in the High School auditorium
by Bev. L. L^Hanthorap, of the Mount
Pleasant Methodist church. Those
who have heard Rev. Hanthorne state
that he is fully aware of present-day
spiritual needs, and that he is a speaker of eloquence and power.
AH of ClaVe's churches hay-? beep,
invited to. take part in this union service. *
Mrs. C. A. Reading has charge of
the music committee, and we know
that good music will be furnished.
The auditorium will be decorated by
the Junior Class under the direction
of Mr. Elmer L. Keith of the Manual
Training Department.
In view of the fact that this is the
first baccalaureate service to be held
in the auditorium of the new building,,
a large_ audience is expected. 525»
people can be seated on the main
floor and 200 more in the balcony, if
necessary. Every one come and help
to make this service one to be long-'
remembered by the Graduating Class
of 1923.
One of the numerous responsibilities devolving upon the board of supervisors this year will be a closer
scrutiny of the financial affairs of the
county than has previously been given
the general fund of the county, as
well as the poor fund, having been
practically exhausted since the receipt of taxes from the various, townships and cities in March. The situation, which is perhaps common to
some of the poorer counties, yet is
one which needs consideration, and
amounts to a more business-like effort to get away from the chronic
habit of borowing money from year
to year.
While the ambition of county legislators to keep the tax rate down is s
laudable one, still it may be an indication of good business judgment to levy
such an amount as will result in a
higher rate, if by so doing, the result
will be an ultimate saving and there
fore a correspondingly lower rate fOi
future years. Many municipalities
have found that it pays to wipe out a
chronic indebtedness running alone
from year to year, even if a large
amount must be raised for one or
more years to accomplish this end.
At the present time, appropriations
made by the Board last October
.amounting to nearly a thousand dollars and authorized for payment in
March are held up through lack of
funds, and poor fund bills totaling
more than that sum have been delayed for some time, both awaiting further action of the Board of June.. All
the available tax money in March was
used to repay loans of the year previous, hence none.vof this money was
left to take care of this year's business. Under these circumstances, it
might be a mark of economy to raise
a slightly larger than a smaller
amount'in the general fund this fall,,
and thus make a (beginning toward
wiping out this deficit which faces the
officials from year to year, and results
in enforced loans to keep things going.

C. F., Haller completed the taking
of the city school census this week
and reports three less than last year.
The figures are City of Clare, 404;
Grant'Fr. 36; Vernon Fr. 46; making
a total of 486. Last year the figures
were City of Clare 407; Grant Fr. 41;
with a total of 489. The report itself is made up very artistically and
is a beautiful piece of work.
During* the past year Miss Mary
Louise Maxwell, of Mt. Pleasant, a
graduate of the University School of
Music, has been conducting a class
in piano lessons in this city. Besides her college training Miss Maxwell has unusual natural ability
and has been the recipient"vof special honors at the University School
of Music. Last Saturday afternoon
her Clare pupils gave a recital at the
home of Mrs. C. A. Reading, their
mothers and friends being invited.

program ice cream and wafers were
served. ' •'. .
' That the pavipg of one mile of road
on McEwan street by the state, beginning at the County line on M14

the Administrative Board Hwy. Committee approved the recommendation
of State Highway Commissioner
Rogers and which carried the apportionment of ?26,000 for the job.
Mayor Thompson and the City
Council have spared no efforts in preparing the way and have asked for
bid from different firms on the tile to
be used for water mains and sewers.
Monday morning the last bid was received at ten o'clock and immediately
after dinner the Mayor, accompanied
by Engineer Erter and Alderman
Fred Thompson motored to Bay City
and placed the order, thereby*1 getting
the first before the State's program
was announced.
Movement is now under way to
have the job let early so that work
can be started on the north end and
when extended to the business district every thing will be in readiness.
SENIOR PLAY

IN HONOREM.
At the home of Francis Greer on
eighth street Wednesday evening met
the Sunrise Club, under the auspices
of Francis Greer and Dorothy Green,
who in honor. of Mrs. Rose Phillips,
entertained the members with dainty
refreshments and following in the
footsteps pf their elders,- provided a
shower of presents executed in nearly every instance by their own handiwork for the delectation and pleasure
of their teacher, Mrs. Phillips.
It was truly a very enjoyable occasion. Many games, dear ito the
heart of childhood added zest to the
afternoon*.
It is certainly a pleasant thought
that our little ones can manifest so
much good will and appreciation.
"Clarence" has probably been presented by more high school and college classes and dramatic clubs than
any other play of recent years. It
was given at Bay City high school
last night, at Evart recently, and by
dozens of high school classes all over
the state. It is a delightful comedy,
packed with laughs from beginning to
end.
The title role is played by Ralph
Duncan, a member of last year's
graduating glass who has been taking;
some post graduate work'in the high,
school this year. Playing opposite;
him is Annabelle Grover. Other important roles are'taken by Mercedes
Moore, Florence Green, Frank Holbrook, Iris Hutchinson, Nellie Ballyn-
tyne, Ellis BoWler and Gerald Lawson
One of the real hits of the production will be scored by Bobby. This,
is a boy's part to be played by one:
of our most attractive senior girls.
See if you can recognize her in disguise. ,
■■■ It is hoped that a record crowd will
fill the school auditorium next Tuesday evening to support the class ana",
enjoy two hours of fun.
An orchestral prelude will begin at
seven forty-five. The curtain will
rise at eight o'clock. As there is
but one change of scenery short intermissions are promised between,
acts.

Early Monday morning thieves entered the Clare Hay, Grain & Bean Co.'s offices by breaking open two rear doors and must have been somewhat surprised when they only found the small sum of 17 cents to pay for their efforts. Not being satisfied they carried the Pere Marquette tools, which they had taken from the tool shed, and pried the rear window of the T. W. Dawson Cigar Store and taking a hammer and chisel continued to the'safe, which Mr. Dawson had neglected to lock .the night before and which afforded easy picking for them. They took' about §125.00 and left without even returning the tools to their proper place Official are working on the case as it is thought to be the work of local talent. Last week Thursday evening the Sullivan pool room was entered by breaking a rear window and prying off the screen. ?4.90 was taken from the till, but they were kind enough^to leave ten cents in pennies for change in the morning.

All "members are urged to meet at the: hail at 9:30 sharp. , Ideal weather greeted the Clare boys at Gladwin when the when forward to our neighboring city last Sunday. Seldom is it our good luck to see a game,played as was this one, both sijles playing almost perfect ball. Clare allowing one error while Gladwin tell for three. Honors with the stick were even, both sides getting but five hits. Odin pitching for the Clare bpys, was ih fine shape, walking but one man, allowing only five hits and striking out one man more than. Gladwin's pitcher, Foust. Eddie Hubel of Detroit, who is visiting-his parents covered the, initial sack for Clare in excellent shape. While he did not get any hits, he got one sacrifice hit- and two stolen bases in two times at bat. . "Foster .playing short made the only error credited to Clare but he came back and redeemed himself with a double play and two hits. The team as a whole gave Odin the best of support and it was no fault of theirs that Clare lost by a score of 2 to 0. An error, one walk combined yith two hits in the seventh gave Gladwin the two scores she received. A careful study of the following summary will show that Clare played a better game than Gladwin and should have had the game had it not been for the lucky combination on Gladwin's part in the seventh., Clare PABH R E Gorr, A 2 4 10 0 Gorr, G. 5 4 ,1 0 0 Hubel, Eddie 3 2 0 0 '0 Odin, L. 13 10 0 Hubel, D. * 4 4 0 0 0 Foster, W. 6 4 2 0 1 Stough, P. 8 4 0 0 0 Groves, J. 7 4 0 0 0 Clute, J. 9 4 0 0 0 Totals 33 5 0 1 Gladwin Gorskee x8 -4 0 0 0 Robbins 4 3 000 Sisco 6 3 111 Weigin Von Meale Breault Scklichtori Stout Totals Totals 123456789 •Clare 000000000 Gladwin 00000020 Struck.out by Odin 4; Foust 3.

WHY NOT A SIDEWALK ' AT UNION DEPOT? Question Should be One of a Spirit of Good Will ,in Getting All Parties Concerned Together. Again the appeal for the sidewalk at the Onion .depot comes from the people. This question has been talked and discussed between the parties concerned many times. About three years, ago it was agreed between the- city council and the railroad for the city to furnish the cement and gravel and the sidewalk Would be> built by the railroad employees. This through time was. let drift and finally dropped, This is but a question ot again getting all parties concerned together in a spirit of good will for the improve- nient and beautifying this end of the city instead of being compelled to wade sand or-mud as the season affords. The expense of the sidewalk divided between the Ann Arbor and Pere Marquette railroads and the city of Clare will make but a small item for each compared with benefits "received by the traveling public. Let's get together. CITY OF CLARE APPORTIONED PAVEMENT MONEY er's State Highway Commission- Highway Program Approved by . Gov. Groesbeck and Administrative Board. BACCALAUREATE SERMON SUNDAY EVENJNGJUNE17 Rev, L. L. Hanthorne. of Mt. Pleasant, to Give Address at High School Auditorium. ALL CHURCHES OF CITY- ARE INVITED TO JOIN IN UNION SERVICE Sunday evening at 8:00 o'clock the annual baccalaureate sermon -yglll be given in the High School auditorium by Bev. L. L^Hanthorap, of the Mount Pleasant Methodist church. Those who have heard Rev. Hanthorne state that he is fully aware of present-day spiritual needs, and that he is a speaker of eloquence and power. AH of ClaVe's churches hay-? beep, invited to. take part in this union service. * Mrs. C. A. Reading has charge of the music committee, and we know that good music will be furnished. The auditorium will be decorated by the Junior Class under the direction of Mr. Elmer L. Keith of the Manual Training Department. In view of the fact that this is the first baccalaureate service to be held in the auditorium of the new building,, a large_ audience is expected. 525» people can be seated on the main floor and 200 more in the balcony, if necessary. Every one come and help to make this service one to be long-' remembered by the Graduating Class of 1923. One of the numerous responsibilities devolving upon the board of supervisors this year will be a closer scrutiny of the financial affairs of the county than has previously been given the general fund of the county, as well as the poor fund, having been practically exhausted since the receipt of taxes from the various, townships and cities in March. The situation, which is perhaps common to some of the poorer counties, yet is one which needs consideration, and amounts to a more business-like effort to get away from the chronic habit of borowing money from year to year. While the ambition of county legislators to keep the tax rate down is s laudable one, still it may be an indication of good business judgment to levy such an amount as will result in a higher rate, if by so doing, the result will be an ultimate saving and there fore a correspondingly lower rate fOi future years. Many municipalities have found that it pays to wipe out a chronic indebtedness running alone from year to year, even if a large amount must be raised for one or more years to accomplish this end. At the present time, appropriations made by the Board last October .amounting to nearly a thousand dollars and authorized for payment in March are held up through lack of funds, and poor fund bills totaling more than that sum have been delayed for some time, both awaiting further action of the Board of June.. All the available tax money in March was used to repay loans of the year previous, hence none.vof this money was left to take care of this year's business. Under these circumstances, it might be a mark of economy to raise a slightly larger than a smaller amount'in the general fund this fall,, and thus make a (beginning toward wiping out this deficit which faces the officials from year to year, and results in enforced loans to keep things going.

F., Haller completed the taking of the city school census this week and reports three less than last year. The figures are City of Clare, 404; Grant'Fr. 36; Vernon Fr. 46; making a total of 486. Last year the figures were City of Clare 407; Grant Fr. 41; with a total of 489. The report itself is made up very artistically and is a beautiful piece of work. During* the past year Miss Mary Louise Maxwell, of Mt. Pleasant, a graduate of the University School of Music, has been conducting a class in piano lessons in this city. Besides her college training Miss Maxwell has unusual natural ability and has been the recipient"vof special honors at the University School of Music. Last Saturday afternoon her Clare pupils gave a recital at the home of Mrs. C. A. Reading, their mothers and friends being invited. Each.pupil rendered several numbers from memory. The program was a. credit to the participants and their instructor. At the conclusion of the program ice cream and wafers were served. ' •'. . ' That the pavipg of one mile of road on McEwan street by the state, beginning at the County line on M14 and continuing north, will* soon begin was evidenced the first of the week when Governor Groesbeck and the Administrative Board Hwy. Committee approved the recommendation of State Highway Commissioner Rogers and which carried the apportionment of ?26,000 for the job. Mayor Thompson and the City Council have spared no efforts in preparing the way and have asked for bid from different firms on the tile to be used for water mains and sewers. Monday morning the last bid was received at ten o'clock and immediately after dinner the Mayor, accompanied by Engineer Erter and Alderman Fred Thompson motored to Bay City and placed the order, thereby*1 getting the first before the State's program was announced. Movement is now under way to have the job let early so that work can be started on the north end and when extended to the business district every thing will be in readiness.

It was truly a very enjoyable occasion. Many games, dear ito the heart of childhood added zest to the afternoon*. It is certainly a pleasant thought that our little ones can manifest so much good will and appreciation. "Clarence" has probably been presented by more high school and college classes and dramatic clubs than any other play of recent years. It was given at Bay City high school last night, at Evart recently, and by dozens of high school classes all over the state. It is a delightful comedy, packed with laughs from beginning to end.
