,/
The large colonial residence of Mr.
and Mrs. Frank P. Cray, Lincoln
Heights, was the scene ol an exceptionally elaborate affair on Tuesday
evening, September 4,1923. The marriage -of their daughter, Marjorle
Esther being consumated, the groom,
Mr. William Eldee Huston.
The wedding nuptials were solemnized In the presence of about 200
guests at 8:30 P. M. The ceremony
was performed by the Key. Harry C.
Slater, pastor of Asbury M. E. church
officiating.
The bride was handsomely gowned
in silk georgette crepe heavily em
bxoldered with crystal pearl beads,
carrying a bunch of white rose buds
and lily of the valley. The veil was
caught back with orange blossoms.
Miss Mildred Ailcen Welch, cousin
of the bride sang, "TIs Thy Wedding
Morning," and "At Dawn," with Miss
Martha Frances "Sallinger, accompanist at piano. At the' strain ofMendel-
sohu's Wedding March, played by Mildred Welch, the bridal party descended the stairway. The procession was
heralded by four small boys from Page
Military Academy, attendants who
were Frank Hamilton Gray, brother
of the bride, Robert Oleson, George
Cole and D. Turlnetto which feature
lent an added military dignity to the
occasion. The four boys formed two
lines holding ends of silk tulle ribbon
which made an, aisle through which
the bridal party passed.
Miss "Ruth Agnes Gray, sister of the
bride, was maid of honor. She wore
rose colored changeable satin trimmed
with old lace. The brides maids
'looked very pretty in rainbow colored
silk gowns each carrying bouquets of
sweet peas. They included the Misses
Dorothy Louise Jenkins; Hazel Marie
*Neal and Marjorle Louise Welch, "cousin of the bride—with best man Har-
land Attlesey. The two little flower
maidens who scattered rose petals
from baskets were dainty Beatrice
Granas and Helen Tannenbaum. They
wore turquoise blue silk taffeta, little
three year old Ruth Esther Leeds
looked sweet in pink silk taffeta carrying the wedding ring on a satin pillow. The bride was given in marriage
by her father, F. P. Gray. •
The Bpacious rooms were tastefully
decorated in asters, chysanthemums,
dahlias and carnations in pink, laven-
er and white, with an abundance of
ferns. Japanese bamboo, plumosis and
potted palms. A profusion of flowers
arranged artistically converted the
home into a bower of loveliness. The
decorations were under the direct supervision of Miss Jennie O. Chambers.
It is doubtful if Lincoln Heights
ever witnessed a more gorgeous setting and elaborate wedding function
in. its history. The large number of
beautiful gifts attest the high esteem
In which the young couple are held.
The well wishes of a host of friends
will attend Mr. and Mrs. Huston to
their new home in Eagle Rock City.
The above article was taken from
the Lincoln Heights News, of Los
Angeles, Cal, and the bride will be remembered as the daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Frank P. Gray, the latter being
jtP formerly Mrs. M. D. Eaton, of this
city, who for years assisted in the
editing of the Clare Democrat. The
two Misses Welch who took prominent part in the ceremony are daughters of Mr. and Mrs. E. G. Welch,
while the Miss Martha Frances Bal-
linger is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Frank Ballinger, all of whom were
former residents of Clare.
The Sentinel Joins with the many
griends of the bridal couple in extending its best wishes for a most happy
and prosperous wedded life.

The following letter was received
this week by the Sentinel from Mrs.
P. H. Sarringer, of Judsonla, Arkansas
in which she states they still have a
longing for Michigan, etc.:
Editor Clare Sentinel,
Clare\ Mich.
Dear Sir:
I read- with Interest an article in
your paper of September 7, written by
E. A. White, lauding his praises of
Florida, (yet between the lines a reader could read of his longing for old
Michigan's lake bound shores). Florida has ideal winters. How could it
be otherwise, situated geographically
as it is. But what of Michigan in the
hot dry summer months, when the
sun pours Its fevering rays upon the
earth, etc., It Is then that the tourist
parties, seeking cool breezes and pure
water and invigorating air and sweet
rest as well as pleasure turns toward
Michigan's shores and hastens to one
of nature's most perfect summer resorts and lingers until duty calls them
away.
And it is in the summer months
that we in a far away sister state
think of Michigan, our native state,
with, her many streams of clear, cool
water, I recall to mind, especially, the
beautiful "Tobacco creek" running
its course near Farwell, where as a
child I have often played with, my
brother, Ernest, now Chief of Police
at Cadillac, Mich., and my other playmates. And the tall stately forest of
hard wood and sweet smelling pines
also firs and balsams and cedars and
sturdy hemlocks., After wandering
through them to come upon a beautiful spring bubbling forth the clearest,
coldest water which ever came from
the earth.
' When you recall Michigan to mind
with Its many natural advantages,
good roads, schools and general environments you can not be restrained from saying, "Michigan My Michigan," although you have travelled
afar from it, like we in Arkansas.
Here we have an idea climate, short
winters, raise cattle, hogs, corn, hay
and cotton to advantage, also raise
hundreds of acres of ""strawberries
which are shipped to northern markets in April and May.
I was raised in Farwell, Clare county, left there for Arkansas nine years
ago, so yoii see we are real "Michi-
ganders" as persons from there are
called here, but have an interest in
our hearts for our native state "Michigan."
Most sincerely yours,
Patience Harris Sarringer
Judsonla, Ark.

TO CIRCUIT COURT
i &
DORT GAR IS
PROVEN THE BEST
Last week John E. Doherty proved
to two prospective buyers of the Dort
car without a doubt that he was agent
for the best car on the market.
The story seems to run like this:
Mr. Doherty was talking to one of his
prospective buyers when another
stepped tip. At this time Mr. Doherty
said, "and you will want one of these
machines too." He answered "Not if
the engine drops out as you said It
did." Then Mr. Doherty explained to
the first buyer that the other day he
was driving along the road when
three bolts holding the motor rattled
out letting it out of the frame. The
fourth bolt broke off letting the motor
onto the ground. In spite of this 1
drove two miles home and into the
garage," proving to his customer that
fceyond a doubt It was the best machine on the market. „

and attended the Clare school. Though
only a boy, being two months over
sixteen years of age, .realizing his

Early Enrollment Figures
Indicate Big Attendance
at State College.
The Michigan Agricultural College
will open its doors to tho young men
and women of this state on Wednes- '
day, September 26, for the sixty-sixth
consecutive year since the state college waa founded in 1857. Registra- '
tion for freshmen will be held on
September 24 and for upper classmen
on September 25.
Advance registration figures available at the. office of the college' registrar this week indicate that the attendance this year will equal or exceed the' best previous "mark in" the
history of the school. More thafa 1,700
regular students, • in addition to sev-,
era! hundred special winter agriculT
tural course and summer school students, were enrolled during the past
year, and an even larger attendance
is looked for this fall.
The agricultural course, the oldest
at M. A. C, and the one from which
the college takes its name^ is expected to draw a large portion of the students, as is the engineering division.
These two courses accounted-for more
than 1,000 of last year's enrollment.
Home economics, forestry, veterinary
medicine and applied science courses:
have also had many advance registrations.
The applied science division, first
established two years ago, is expected to show the largest percentage increase, while reports show that more
girls than ever will elect work under
the home economics branch of the
institution.
A number of minor changes in the
college faculty, have been announced
for the year, while Miss Jean Krueg-
er, new dean of home economics, and
Harrison R. Hunt, newly appointed
professor of zoology, will take office
with the opening of the college year;
PAROCHIAL SCHOOL
PETITIONS FAIL
Will Not go on Ballot at
Next General Election.
A check of the petitions filed by
James Hamilton, head of the Michigan Public School Defence league,
shows that his attempt to initiate the
proposed anti-parochial school amendment failed.
The petition contained 55,945 names
and enough more signatures were received in the mail to raise the total
to 56,813. The number necessary to
initiate is "58,367.
Hamilton filed his petition in the
hope of initiating the proposal under
the old law. The new law requires
that an expense account showing the
names of contributors to the anti-
parochial fund be filed.
Secretary of State Charles DeLand
declares he will accept no additions
to the petitions already filed. If another effort IS to be made to initiate
the proposal, he said, it must be in
the shape of new petitions.

CROSS BURNS ON

Representative of Ku Klux

There has been some excitement
and considerable conjecture among
the populace of Clare during the past
week. Last week It became known
that there was a representative of
the Ku Klux Klan in the city in the
interest of that organization. No one
seemed to be able to tell the organizer's name, and no one seemd to know
with what success he was meeting.
At any rate Tuesday evening a
large burning .cross was discovered
on Vernon Hill that well lighted up
the city. Many people visited the spot
and many outspoken opinions were
heard.

The ceremony was performed by the Key. Harry C. Slater, pastor of Asbury M. E. church officiating. The bride was handsomely gowned in silk georgette crepe heavily em bxoldered with crystal pearl beads, carrying a bunch of white rose buds and lily of the valley. The veil was caught back with orange blossoms. Miss Mildred Ailcen Welch, cousin of the bride sang, "TIs Thy Wedding Morning" and "At Dawn" with Miss Martha Frances "Sallinger, accompanist at piano. At the' strain ofMendel- sohu's Wedding March, played by Mildred Welch, the bridal party descended the stairway. The procession was heralded by four small boys from Page Military Academy, attendants who were Frank Hamilton Gray, brother of the bride, Robert Oleson, George Cole and D. Turlnetto which feature lent an added military dignity to the occasion. The four boys formed two lines holding ends of silk tulle ribbon which made an, aisle through which the bridal party passed. Miss "Ruth Agnes Gray, sister of the bride, was maid of honor. She wore rose colored changeable satin trimmed with old lace. The brides maids 'looked very pretty in rainbow colored silk gowns each carrying bouquets of sweet peas. They included the Misses Dorothy Louise Jenkins; Hazel Marie *Neal and Marjorle Louise Welch, "cousin of the bride—with best man Har- land Attlesey.

Japanese bamboo, plumosis and potted palms. A profusion of flowers arranged artistically converted the home into a bower of loveliness.

SEASON OF AUCTIONS HAS COMMENCED *f^P"Si>*p*M>4sW'*ss**** *s^*s^4s***& *^st*^*m^^s**si^*s***t'^^**"**' *&^s*^^1sr* The following letter was received this week by the Sentinel from Mrs. P. H. Sarringer, of Judsonla, Arkansas in which she states they still have a longing for Michigan, etc.: Editor Clare Sentinel, Clare\ Mich. Dear Sir: I read- with Interest an article in your paper of September 7, written by E. A. White, lauding his praises of Florida, (yet between the lines a reader could read of his longing for old Michigan's lake bound shores). Florida has ideal winters. How could it be otherwise, situated geographically as it is. But what of Michigan in the hot dry summer months, when the sun pours Its fevering rays upon the earth, etc., It Is then that the tourist parties, seeking cool breezes and pure water and invigorating air and sweet rest as well as pleasure turns toward Michigan's shores and hastens to one of nature's most perfect summer resorts and lingers until duty calls them away. And it is in the summer months that we in a far away sister state think of Michigan, our native state, with, her many streams of clear, cool water, I recall to mind, especially, the beautiful "Tobacco creek" running its course near Farwell, where as a child I have often played with, my brother, Ernest, now Chief of Police at Cadillac, Mich., and my other playmates. And the tall stately forest of hard wood and sweet smelling pines also firs and balsams and cedars and sturdy hemlocks., After wandering through them to come upon a beautiful spring bubbling forth the clearest, coldest water which ever came from the earth. ' When you recall Michigan to mind with Its many natural advantages, good roads, schools and general environments you can not be restrained from saying, "Michigan My Michigan" although you have travelled afar from it, like we in Arkansas. Here we have an idea climate, short winters, raise cattle, hogs, corn, hay and cotton to advantage, also raise hundreds of acres of ""strawberries which are shipped to northern markets in April and May. I was raised in Farwell, Clare county, left there for Arkansas nine years ago, so yoii see we are real "Michi- ganders" as persons from there are called here, but have an interest in our hearts for our native state "Michigan." Most sincerely yours, Patience Harris Sarringer Judsonla, Ark. White County. Kindergarten The enrollment up to date is twenty- seven.

KEITH BOUND OVER TO CIRCUIT COURT i & DORT GAR IS PROVEN THE BEST Last week John E. Doherty proved to two prospective buyers of the Dort car without a doubt that he was agent for the best car on the market. The story seems to run like this: Mr. Doherty was talking to one of his prospective buyers when another stepped tip. At this time Mr. Doherty said, "and you will want one of these machines too." He answered "Not if the engine drops out as you said It did." Then Mr. Doherty explained to the first buyer that the other day he was driving along the road when three bolts holding the motor rattled out letting it out of the frame. The fourth bolt broke off letting the motor onto the ground. In spite of this 1 drove two miles home and into the garage" proving to his customer that fceyond a doubt It was the best machine on the market. „ Hearing Held Monday Forenoon Before Justice Gallihan.

Registra- ' tion for freshmen will be held on September 24 and for upper classmen on September 25. Advance registration figures available at the. office of the college' registrar this week indicate that the attendance this year will equal or exceed the' best previous "mark in" the history of the school. More thafa 1,700 regular students, • in addition to sev-, era! hundred special winter agriculT tural course and summer school students, were enrolled during the past year, and an even larger attendance is looked for this fall. The agricultural course, the oldest at M. A. C, and the one from which the college takes its name^ is expected to draw a large portion of the students, as is the engineering division. These two courses accounted-for more than 1,000 of last year's enrollment. Home economics, forestry, veterinary medicine and applied science courses: have also had many advance registrations. The applied science division, first established two years ago, is expected to show the largest percentage increase, while reports show that more girls than ever will elect work under the home economics branch of the institution.

The new law requires that an expense account showing the names of contributors to the anti- parochial fund be filed.

If another effort IS to be made to initiate the proposal, he said, it must be in the shape of new petitions.
