LARGE CROWD ATTENDS CONG'L. CHURCH
SUNDAY MORNING
Over   $500    Raised   in    Few
Minutes   to  Complete  Re-
,   pairs on Church.
• Last Sunday was a banner day at
the £ongregational   church   in   this
city.    The morning service was held
in the newly    decorated   auditorium
and a large congregation was present.
: The music by the choir and the solo
* by George Peterson and the special
; number -by Mrs, Paul Bretz, of Carson
City, was enjoyed and appreciated.
The pastor preached from the text
in Solomon's prayer at the dedication
of the temple. "But will God indeed
dwell in this place."
At the close of the sermon, the
pastor asked for subscriptions to a
fund to be used to re-roof part of the
church, pay for the .carpets already
ordered and decorate the basement
and the people responded generously
and in a very happy manner. Nearly
$500 was raised and since others havd
contributed bringing the amount well
beyond that sum.
This church is in a very prosperous
condition and well organized with harmony in every department.
Third Quarter
Clare received and returned to the
30 yard line where they opened up
and F. Petchnik went 8 yards on short
•end run. He added three more
through center making the first down.
Two passes from P. Petchnik to W.
Johnson netted 25 yards while a
trick play increased it by 12 yards.
F, Petchnik made a short end run
•around the right side for 8 yards and
then took the ball over on an off

point after the touchdown was missed
but the score was now 6-0. Edmore
returned the kick off to J25 yard line
but were forced to punt.
Fourth Quarter
Clare started a passing attack
which brought the ball to, the 30
yard chalk mark where Schoonover,
behind perfect interference, scored a
touchdown losing the point after
touchdown. Edmore chose to receive again, and again they were
forced to punt. Up to this time they
iiad made two first downs to Clare's
-seventeen.
Prank Allen was put in as half and
tore off four nice gains in far chances
■only to fumble on his fifth try-
During the remainder of the game
'Clare was satisfied to hold them and
the game ended with Edmore trying
liard to score through passes.
Summary
For this game Clare had regained
its old fighting spirit which we are
confident it will keep the rest of the
season. The fine work of Schoonover
and Petchnik showed up in this game
and as a whole the team had the
fighting spirit and played In unison.
The next game will be with Shepherd Friday on the home ileid. This
promises to be an exciting game so
let's get out and boost.

TIPS ON TRADE.
OVERLAND SEDAN PULLS
LARGE MOVIE TRAILER
IN UNUSUAL POWER TEST
Model 91  Standard Sedan, Recently Reduced to $595, Pulls
7% Ton Trailer With Ease.
A novel power test was recently
staged in Toledo which effectively demonstrated the pulling power of the
engine in the Overland Standard
sedan which was recently reduced in
price from $655.00 to $595.00.
A complete moving picture unit, belonging to a well known film company
from Hollywood, stopped in Toledo to
take photographs of the Willys-Overland factory. A special built truck
towed a heavy trailer weighing 7 1-2
tons in its trip across the continent.
An Overland Standard sedan, just
off the assembly line, was attached
to the trailer by a heavy chain. Four
men occupied the sedan,, while two
attaches of the film unit remained in
the truck to operate the heavy
emergency brakes. The chain .tautened, and slowly the 17,000 pound trailer
started down the street, towing it several hundred, yards in, high gear. After
the test was over, an official of the
film company declared: "I would have
Wagered $100.00 to nothing that that
car would not have budged that big
Idad."
The test was the more remarkable
because of its taking place on a hot
day with the four huge wheels of the
trailer sinking deep into the soft
asphalt street. It was out of these
ruts that the Standard sedan pulled
the huge van while hundreds of spectators looked on in amazement.
Day after day to tlie office I go,
After letters and papers, and whatever so,
That comes to the office addressed to
me,
And is put in the box that I rent annually;
Then I work the lock slowly, and open
the door,
To find the same stuff I have found
there before.
An envelope, thick as my arm tumbled
out,
You have found the   same   thing   in
your box, no doubt;
A bill of sale in a neighboring town,
Where your wife could buy everything
new for a gown;
The price of each at tide,   being   so
small,
You could pay the spot cash, and not
miss it at all.
I stacked the mail up and tied it with
string,
When I saw everybody had got the
same thing;
And out of the office they came with
a smile,
They had mail enough now to last
them awtiile;
Then homeward they went with a leap
and a bound,
To read the great bargains so easily
found.
If for bargains you'r looking, -you
suroly can't fail,
When you grab up the bills that
come through the mail;
And when you have read all the
columns down through,
You'll see not much left, for Sears-
Roebuck to do;
For the small town merchant, that a
neighbor to you,
Through right advertising, gets business to do.
For an ad, to do fully, the work that
it should,
Must talk about' nothing, but goods
that are. good;
And the Post Office' Force, with the
work they do,
Will scatter those Ads, the whole
country through;
And the money that lays these bargains down,
Can be left right here, in your own
home town.
If the home town   merchant,   is 'one
wide awake,
A tip like this, he will .surely take;
For the home town Paper needs his
ad, .
As much as boy ever needs his Dstd;
And the money thus   paid,   tor   ads,
right down,
Will build up business, in our own
home town.

Congressman Roy O. Woodruff, of
Bay City, delivered an address on his
recent trip to r the Hawaiian Islands.
Mr. Woodruff stated that he went to
the Island as a member of the Naval
Affairs committee of the House to investigate the expenditure asked for
in the improvement of Pearl Harbor.
This is an excellent harbor for our,
warships, but at present they cannot
enter because of the crooked channel. The straightening of this harbor
and other naval requirements call for
an expenditure of twenty million dollars and after the investigation made,
Mr. Woodruff believes that this should
be allowed.
He said that the United States- had
expended less than 20 million of dollars on the islands since acquiring:
them, but the revenue derived front
them in revenues has been 120 million dollars.
He spoke of the highly cultured!
Hawaiians and the splendid educational system which is the same as in,
this country and is highly efficient..
The only language spoken on the-
islands is the English, There are^
many Japanese, Chinese and Porti-
gese and they are intermarried.
The islands are volcanic in origiit
and ther^ are no minerals or poisonous reptiles or insects of any kind!
there. There are two national parks;,
the largest of these comprising 60?
square miles.
- Speaking of the Pineapple industry-
Mr. Wodruff stated that the first canning company was organized in 1909?
and that yearM.4,000 cases were canned. Since that time there haye beem
15 other companies organized and the*
original company last year canned!
more than six.million cases and altogether '25 million cases were canned and all found a ready market, for
this is the finest pineapple in the
world.
It was a very interesting and helpful talk, well received and many questions were asked after Mr. Woodruff
had finished.
A rising vote of thanks was given
him at the close.
John Asline, of the Princess
Theatre, invited the men to attend
the show as his guests at the close of
the meeting and most of the party accepted.
