That the "Heights" at Houghton.
"Lake is. fast becoming one of the most
popular resorts of Michigan can only
be realized by a person who had; visited the place four years ago and then
again at the present time. In this
time-more than three hundred cot-'
tages have been erected, not of the
>cheap kind but residences that would
be a credit to any city, many of them
running into the thousands of dollars.
This little city Is in an" ideal location to the lake. The streets Bare laid
out in blocks so that every street goes
•directly to the lake, and has a flowing
well on each. At the lake shore is an
excellent' bathing beech and one that
a person can wade out a distance of.
about a half a mile and has sand bot- j
torn. A. Chamber of Commerce was
•Organized about three weeks ago and !
this body has already taken many j
steps for further improvement of the,
site, one of which was the laying out j
Of a public park with 250 feet frontage
on the lake. On this committee the
Chamber of Commerce named E. H.
Waller and two other property owners ]
to oversee the filling in and improving the grounds. New cottages are
.being erected as fast as possible and
.nearly forty carpenters are now on the
job and many truck loads of furniture.
are coming in daily. Four general |
store, carrying many thousand of dollars of merchandise have established
themselves in comfortable buildings,'
a -meat market and an up-to-date post-
office are in evidence.
At the lake the Beebe, Sanford, Republic and Ithaca boat liveries furnish
mindreds of boats for the resorters
use and keep many thousands of
minnows on sale at reasonable prices.
At the former place the management
stated to the reporter that he always
placed "safety before sales" and many
times demonstrated the fact when he
advised prospective boat renters not
to venture on the lake when it was
not safe and accordingly lost the price
of the boat and bait, but only for the
time, as people appreciate this kind
<of service and are sure of being repeaters to the livery.
Five Clare people and two from
Lansing, who were formerly residents
of this city, are owners of excellent
cottages'. B. H. Waller, Collins &
Greer, E. A. Anderson, Dr. W. F.
Clute/Dr. J. B. Roe and C, W. Calkins. These cottages are all nicely
located a shorb distance from the lake
and are valuable property. The writer
did not inspect the interior of but one
of these homes and that the Waller
cottage "Tam-A-Rac". This cottage
Is built of peeled tamarack poles
about 6 inches in diameter and set together on end with cement between
and stained a dark oak color. The
roof is of cottage shape and together
presents a very unique appearance.
The sides of the building are intersected' with large windows which contain
620 panes of glass. On the interior
are eight bedrooms, three sitting
rooms, two large enclosed porches,
dining room and kitchen. Mr. Waller
has now near completion another cottage of the same plan which will have
four more bedrooms and a private
electric light plant. Around the
building is a very neatly terraced
lawn in which are set many flower
beds and stands.
In all Mr. and Mrs. Waller have a
summer home which they may well
feel proud of and one that we all
would like to own.
In answer to a challenge, the City
Firemen met the Masonic Lodge
team at Recreation park Decoration
Day and the former went down to defeat to tune of 18 to 1*1.
During the flrst inning the Masons
ran in 9 score before the Firemen began to tighten down to business, but
from then on the latter held their opponent down to a score of 9 while
they'ran in 14.
The game was full of fun from the
start and although the crowd was not
as large as was expected, the boys received at the gate $27,80. From this
they paid D. Ward 10 per cent for use
of grounds and two balls costing ?2.80,
leaving ?22,22 for the Farmer's- Fire
Trnck.fund.
HUGE SUMS DUE
ON WAR FRAUDS
Attorney-General's Move
to Start Collection Pleases
Woodruff.
(Detroit Free Press)
Washington, May 31,—Enormous
amounts yet remain to be collected
in war fraud cases, according to
Representative Woodruff"' who expressed his satisfaction today that the
new attorney general has announced
his intention to continue the work set
up during the administration of Attorney General Daugnerty.
Mr. Woodruff says it justifies his
position of two years ago when he
called attention on the floor of the
house to conditions of certain aircraft
contracts. He added that the men
who have been in the war frauds section of the department of justice have
been more or less handicapped for the
reason, that they are subordinates.
Mr. Woodruff said the Martin-Wright
case should have been sent to the
courts a long time ago. He believes
it will be sent up soon for trial.
There are , he stated, 118 claims
now pending for the recovery of
money, aggregating $69,342,741.28. In
addition, there are 18 claims pending
with receivers and trustees in bankruptcy, aggregating §2,686,418.43.
' "Just how much is involved," Mr.
Woodruff added, "In the more than
^uO v.«j.er cases now in the hands of
the war frauds section, and which
have not as yet been presented to the
courts, I cannot say, bui? it must run
into an enormous ampunt."
Different departments, according to
data he has obtained, shows an aggregate of money returned to the
treasury of' ?14,134,590.62.
"This," said Mr. Woodruff, "is sufficient to pay the salaries of every
members of this "house for fdur and a
third years, and enough to pay the
salary of a single member for nearly
2,000 years."
BASE BALL SEASON
OPErfMNDAY
Beaverton Wiris Game
From Locals to the Tune
of 4 to 2.
Clare opened the base ball season at
Recreation Park last Sunday, when
the local team cross bats "with Beaverton, the latter winning by a score of
4 to 2, In spite of the fact that the
local team lost the game the fans expressed themselves well pleased, with
the showing that Clare made and
especially with their new southpaw
pitcher, H, Armentrout, from the north
end of Clare, who started the- game
fpr the local boys, Armentrout in
seven innings allowed only five hits
tor one score and that Score came in
on an error. Beaverton only earned
one run, while Clare's both runs were
earned.
From all appearance Clare this year
has a promising team and one that
they can feel proud of, jn spite of the
fact that they have lost the first two
games. The boys seem to be pulling
together and getting down to business
and it is this kind of a team that the
people take pleasure in supporting.
Following is the summary of the
game: . •
123456789 R HE
Beaverton 000100021 4 10 0
Clare 0000 0 2000 2 10 4
The next game to be played here
will take place next Sunday when
Gladwin boys will visit our city. Assurance is given that the game will
start promtly at 2:30 p. m. Centra)
Standard time. This should be a,
fast game and every fan is urged to j
be present and lend their efforts to
support the local boys.
CLARE H.S. B0YS.
SHOW IMPROVEMENT!
High School Team Defeated
Tuesday by a Score of 16 to 13
The local team so far this year has
had a bad season but they are showing signs' of improvement. '
Last Tuesday Shepherd played here
and defeated Clare by a. score of 16'
13. Up until this game Clare has not
succeeded in scoring over 6 runs, due
chiefly to their inability to hit. Oi
course there were a great many errors, but there are only 2 or 3 experienced players,
With the exception of a few the hitting and fielding is showing a marked
improvement. There is plenty of room
for improvement yet but only with,
actual experience; can they expect to
come good ball players.

Rev. C. B. Hawkins, of Mt.
Pleasant, Gave Address of
Evening.
The Chamber of Commerce luncheon
at the Phelps Cafeteria Tuesday evening was largely attended. Supt.
Gumser led in the community singing
as the men gathered about the tables
an^ an excellent meal, said by all to
have been the best yet, was well
served by the Phelps.
Rev.-> C, B, Hawkins, pastor of the
Presbyterian church, of Mt. Pleasant,
gave the address. His subject was
"What can a Chamber of Commerce
do for the community?" He emphasized the need of neighborliness, and cooperation, and suggested that these
gatherings were the very best means
of bringing about this fellowship.
The Rosebush Ranch, a ten thousand acre livestock farm near Crystal
Falls Iron County which is called, the
biggest single agricultural development ever undertaken in the Upper
Peninsula of Michigan, will be inspected by "agriculturalists by the
state on June 10. A meeting has been
called for the Ranch on that date by j
the Upper Peninsula Development
Bureau and the Rotary Club of Crystal
Falls, cooperating.
The Rosebush Ranch, established
in 1920, is said to be not only the
lagest but also one of the most interesting projects of its kind ever undertaken in the state. While it is
under private management as a purely commercial development, . the
methods demonstrated in the operation of the ranch are said to 'be of
value to the agriculture of. the entire
Upper Peninsula, proving that thousands of acres left by the lumberjack
can be reclaimed for agricultural purposes.
The ranch is mostly pine and hardwood cutover lands, with sandy loam
and- clay soils, typical of large sections of the Upper Peninsula. About
300 acres a year are being cleared.
Dynamite, tractors and other modern
aids tp the land clearer are in use at
the ranch.
The proprietors own their own saw
mill, build their own roads, and generally illustrate a practical large-scale
development operation.
The farm is being developed as a
cattle ranch for the purpose of raising
and breeding high quality beef cattle.
The 350 Herefords there now are to
be increased by 600 head by next fall,
it is,said. The ranch raises its own
hay for feed.

:—*_ '
3.529 Per Cent of Bonuses Expected to go to Wolverines. -
———,— ?
Owing to considerable confusion
about the method by which a world ;
war veteran can compute the amount
of his paid-up 20 years endownment
insurance under the provisions of the
adjusted compensation act. General
Hiiies, director of the , Veterans'
Bureau,; has issued a set of factors and
instructions to explain the way of determining the amount due.
"In connection with the table of factors, he called attention to the fact
that the 25 per cent increase to be ad-
ded to the adjusted service credit has
already been put into the factor So
that it should not be added before
multiplying the factor.
Allow $1 each day for every day of
home service and $1.25 for each day of
foreign service. Take $60 from this
sum. Then multiply the remainder by
the factor opposite the age at your
birthday nearest to the time certificate
is issued. <?
Example: l ..
Age at date of issue 33 years.
Home service—180 days.
Overseas service^—100 days.
180 times ?1—?180.
100 times $1.25—$1.25.
$180 an $125 aro ?305.
?305 minus ?60 is ?245 (amount of
adjusted service credit).'
Multiply this by 2.513—factor at age
33—to get adjusted service certificate,
which is in this case ?615.
