FUNERAL OF JOHN
McNEILL HELD
The Deceased Resided on Farm
Near Dover for Thirty-
Seven Years-.
The firemen's celebration, attracted
-a large crowd to Clare on Wednesday, and the program was carried out
as advertised. The band was excellent, the Scotch lassies delighted the
people, and the street*" sports were
well participated in.
The Firemen's ball game resulted
In a score of ten tq nothing, which
-was in- favor of the Saginaw team,
our own fire fighters being out classed, by those from the larger city.
The second game was one of the
best ever played on the home diamond, and ended in a four to three
victory for the Evart team-- over the
Rosebush players.
■The chef and his wife from the
scout camp at Rotary lake came to
town with their 32 boys and were
given the prize as the largest family.
The oldest automobile was a 1911
Overland with a right hand drive, and
was driven into, town on its own
power by Elmer Fetters, of Vernon
township.
Among the best features of the day
and which received many applauds
from the large crowd, .was the fancy
shooting executed by John Reakes,
of Vernon township.
Dancing in the Doherty and Duncan halls, completed a day of pleasure
and ontertainment.
The city firemen feel grateful to all
those who in any way helped to make
their celebration a success and especially the merchants and citizens who
'donated so liberally.

street, Cadillac, Mich., Thursday,
August 12th at 4:30 v p. m., death
being caused by heart trouble and
c'stfcer.
Had' he lived another week he
would have been sixty-nine years old.
His sickness extended over a number of months, he having^ first'~be-
come ill one year ago last May and
he gradually grew weaker until the
end came and he passed to the Great
Beyond while he peacefully slept.
The cause of his illness was not
known until late in February this
year.
He came with his parents to Michigan at the age of one year and spent
his childhood days on a farm in
Lynn township, St. Clair county.   •

Mrs. Sarah Huntley and Mrs. Cecelia
Haskell and four brothers, William,
Henry, Alex and Phineas.
Soon after, his marriage he settled
on a farm one and one-half miles
north of Dover where he resided for
thirty-seven years and because of
failing health he moved his family to
Cadillac where h.e lived just three
months.
He was a patient sufferer, a kind
and loving husband and father and a
good neighbor and will be greatly
missed by his family, relatives and
his many friends.
The body was brought .here Monday
from Cadillac and the funeral was
held from the Methodist church with
Rev. Frank Bates officiating and he

Sneak thieves have three different
times stolen gasoline from the tank
of the rural fire truck, while it was
in the fire hall at the city pumping
station, and when the alarm was
sounded Sunday, and the department
started for the Rodapaugh fire, there
was only enough gas in this truck to
get to the street.
Fortunately, the city truck had not
been robbed, or it might have proven
-dlsasterous.
Nearly every community is afflicted
with people who have failed to de-
velope the proper sense of moral responsibility, and it is "shocking sometimes to realize that one dare not
leave their property unlocked without having it stolen.
Tires are stolen from cars, gasoline
taken from stations, clothes removed
from the lines, and various other depredations committed by the light
fingered gentry. So much of this has
been going on during the pastf few
years, that we have almost come to
the place where we expect it to happen, but when any person has sunk
to such a low plane in the scale of
humanity and Tightness, as to steal
the fuel from the tank of a fire truck,
thereby jeojardizing property and perhaps lives, it is time that the people
of the community rose up in their indignation and demanded that this
thing should cease.
The officers have some clews that
may lead to arrests for this offense In
the very near future.

The fourteenth annual Isabella
county fair will open Its gates for the
1926 season August 24 and continue
until midnight August 28,
Secretary Luman Burch asserts that
plans have been made for the best
fair possible. The attractions this

program, auto races, horse pulling
contests, free acts, a large midway
and increased exhibits.

place Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday with purses -totalling nearly $2,-
000. Faster horses than have been
featured heretofore are listed for entry on the speed program. r
The free acts this year include two
of the most famous acts in circus and
outdoor vaudeville. Miss Bench Ben-
tum, called the world's greatest high
diving beauty will give two acts daily.
Miss Bentum dives into five feet of
water from a ladder 100 feet high. In
addition to this dive she demonstrates
all. of the best d;ves.
The Bernadri brothers, recently
with Ringlings as a feature act are
billed as the world's greatest equilibrists. These brothers have two,
separate acts which are said to bo
among the best.
The U. S. Indian school band will
again furnish music   for the   free   attractions and   a concert   before   and
| after the races are done at night.
The popular $2 family ticket plan
will again be in vogue, but tickets
will not be sold at the stores this
year. Those wishing the $2 family
tickets will have to obtain them at.the
office of Secretary Luman Burch, at
the Burch & Stirling offices.
Many families are reported to be
planning reunions at Island park during the fair. The fair every year
seems to be getting more of a real
homecoming event. The association
is fostering this plait and hope that
many families will avail themselves
of beautiful Island park for reunions

The rumage sale in the rear of the
Citizens State hank building is offer*'
fti0 some real bargains..
Considerable  excitement   prevaile
in Clare last Thursday evening, when
about ten o'clock, the burglar   alarm
at the rear of the Clare County Savings Bank began ringing.
A crowd of people gathered on the
street in a very brief time and various
conjectures were made as to the
cause of the alarm, but when the officials of the bank arrived on the
scene and opened the vault, it was
found that some thing pertaining to
the closing of the vault door had not
exactly cGrrect. ' This would in no
way permit any one but those having
the combination to open the vault,
but it was enough of a defect in the
closing and locking to cause the
alarm to ring.
The system of alarm at the Clare
banks are the most modern and improved that have been manufactured
and it is impossible for any one to
tamper with the vault in any way
with out having the bell ring.
W. E. Currie and son, Thomas E.,
of Detroit, were in Clare over the
week end looking after business matters, and while here took the opportunity of indulging in their favorite
recreation, that of golf, at the Mt.
Pleasant and Houghton lake courses.
Mr. Currie has a large tract of land
in Florida, and has been spending
considerable time and money there
during the past two years. He has
made many improvements and built a
golf course on his property there, and
while it is in veakty a resort development, Mr. Currie is thoroughly interested in farming, and to experiment,
he has planned several acres to corn
this year. He had* witn him an ear of
dent corn, grown this year, about two
and one-half inches in diameter and
ten inches long, which was fully matured, and looked like first class corn.
He says they are troubled with a
small worm that works just a little
ways down from the'tip of thet ear.
The corn raised there will not keep
i- stored in a crib, and the only practical way of handling it, would be to
store it in a silo.
While Mr. Currie is very enthusiastic about Florida, he says Michigan is
his home.
Early last Friday mornlnfe marked
the passing of Mi*s. T. H. Maynard at
her home on east Fifth street «at the
age of seventy-six years and twenty-
two days, following a lingering illness caused by pernicious anemia,*
Elizabeth Shaw was born in Rose-
ville, Ohio, July 23, 1850 and spent*
her girlhood days in that state. She
was united In marriage to Robert
Koontz October 3rd, 1871 and made
their home. at Navarre, Ohio. This
union was blessed by four children,
one daughter, Mrs. Mamie Manley
preceding her about sixteen years.
The family moved to Clare about
forty years ago and she has made her
home here continuously since. Mr.
Koontiz passed away twenty-four
years ago.
June 23, 1918 she was united in
marriage with Dr, ■ T. H. Maynard.
She has been affiliated with the
Methodist church for a number of
years and passed peacefully away In
the Christian faith. Every care and
comfort was given her during her illness. Her sister, Mrs. Chas.* Miller,
of Roscoe, Michigan, was at her bedside for a month helping the family
in her care.

SUCTION FURNACE   "
CLEANING MACHINE
TO VISIT CLARE
Novel   Devices   For  Cleaning
Furnaces, Pipes and Chimney
is Operated by Holland
Furnace Co.
What will be something new to the
people of Clare and eliminate that'
dreaded time when the furnace, pipes
and chimney-must be cleaned, will
be in this city the week of August
30th to September 4th to serve- the
people of the city ahd fill a long felt
want, and at a price that'is within
the reach of all,
Some of the features of the machine are that it cleans completely
and thoroughly the entire heating
system, in hiding chimney, and takes
all the dirt away; improves sanitary
condition of house because it removes
germ laden dust, the accumulation Of
possibly many years, which cannot
be accomplished by . any other
method; it completes the houseclean-
ing job in as much as it .cleans all
warm air pipes and cold air ducts
which are beyond the reach of the
housewife; it increases the efficiency
of the heating plant, removing all obstructions which may * be found in
pipes and wall stacks; it .may bring
to light unknown, defects which may
be dangerous fire hazards and which
should have attention.
It differs from all cleaning methods
also in this respect that the suction
cleaning process is not attended- by
dust in the house and .saves many
limes the cost of cleaning because it
preserves wall decorations and trimmings throughout the home, operating with the same effectiveness on all
makes of furnaces, hot water and
steam plants. It simply draws all
the dirt into a larger 20 foot bag.
Ihe machine comes to Clare with
the highest recommendations from
fire chiefs and reliable citizens of the
largest cities and will be undoubtedly be welcomed by many citizens
here.
An advance agent will visit every
home in Clare and secure your orders.

of Harrison, found a still in the woods
of Winterfield township, and about
one mile from any residence, last Saturday afternoon, and arrested Merrii

pi violation of the liquor law.
When the officers arrived on the
scene, the still was in operation, the
mash was boiling and distilled whiskey dropping from the copper tube,
into the keg. ^
It was apparent that Mr, Coleman
was in charge as he took to his heels
when the officers came in sight, They
took to the chase and captured him in
the depths of a tag alder swamp.
They found about two gallons of
whiskey and three barrels of mash.
Mr, Coleman is in the county jail at

In the presence of forty friends and
relatives, a pretty home wedding occurred at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
Clifford Bartholomew, of Evart, Saturday evening, August 14th, when
their daughter, Cora Janet, was united in marriage t<? Merl- Goodenow,
son of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Goodenow,
of Clare.
At the strains of the wedding
march played by Mrs. Clement, the
bridal party took their places beneath
an arch of blue and white banked
with green.
Rev. Myron Clement read the marriage service. Miss Marguerite Worn*
er, of Lansing, cousin of the groom,
acted as maid of honor, while Loren
Bartholomew,' brother of the bride,
attended the groom.
The bride was charming in her
gown of powder blue flat crepe, self-
trimmed, a double strand of pearls
being her only ornament. Her attendant wore a becoming gown of
ashes of roses.
A dainty lunch was then served.
They were the recipients of many
useful and beautiful presents, among
them a rayon spread with which the
bride's mother suddenly enveloped
the unsuspecting young couple, mucli
to the merriment of the assembled
guests.
A unique feature of the affair was
the fact that the marriage took place
in the same room in which the
bride was born, They were treated
to the usual musical given by the
Sylvan orchestra, and kept in tune
for ust such occasions.
After a short motor trip to Muskegon they will be at home to their
many friends at Clare, Mich., route 5.
Out of town guests were Mr, and
Mrs. Chas. Goodenow, of Clare; Mrs.
Mannie -Womer and daughter, Marguerite, and little Murill Tillman, also Mr. and Mrs. John Cass, of Lansing; Mr, and Mrs. Leo Chase, of

McEWAN CROSSING
TO BE PROTECTED
NIGHTAND DAY
Utility   Commission  Rules
That Crossing JVlust be
Better Protected.
A watchman is to be maintained at
the Pere Marquette railroad crossing
on McEwan street for twenty-four
hours of the day, according to an
order issued by the Public Utilities
Commission,       ■• ••■-.. »«o  .,<■,»■••
At a meeting of the Clare Chafber
of Commerce held during the winter of
1924, a committee was appointed to
investigate additional watdhman service at this crossing, which is on the
much traveled M-14.
As a result of this committee's activities, Railroad Inspector Hughes
came to Clare during tho late winter
of 1924, to inspect this-crossing, and
listen to the arguments of the Chamber of Commerce representatives and
officials of the railroad company.
The City Council took up the matter
at their first meeting following this
visit of the inspector and authorized
Mayor L. H. Thompson and Alderman
Fred L. Thompson to represent the
city of Clare at the having before the
Public Utilities Commission.
This hearing was held at Lansing
on February 11, 1925 and th e order
just issued proves that these officials
presented their case in a creditable
manner.
The commission in their order says
that "after due consideration Of the
information Contained in the report
of the inspection, together with the
testimony and arguments offered at the
hearing, they concluded-that the protection now maintained by a flagman
from 8:00 a. m. to 4:00 p. m. and the
crossing alarm bell for protection
after the flagmon goes off duty are
inadequate to safeguard the traffic
against movements of engines and
trains over this crossing and has determined that a watchman be maintained for 24 hours of the day from
May 1st to December 1st and from
7:00 a. m. to 11:00 p. m. from December 1st ter May 1st.
The order was dated August 12th,
and was to be complied with within
ten days from this date.        " *"
The commission is to be commended
for this action as this is a very dangerous crossing because of the heavy
traffic and the fact that the buildings
on each side of the track obscure the
view, and the bell, being merely a mechanical device could not .always be
depended upon, and also, could" not bd
heard by the driver of a- ,c_o«e-i -cjir
when tho niptor was banning.
CLARE YOUNG MAN
MEETS TRAGIC DEATH
Drives  Auto  Into  bide of
Freight Train Late Satur-
,   day    Night.      Lady
Friend Is Badly
Injured.
Clyde Eberhardt, "eighteen years of
age, and the son of Mr, and Mrs.
Martin Eberhardt, of Clare, was instantly killed about midnight Saturday
when the automobile which he was
driving crashed into the side * of a
moving Ann Arbor freight train at the
crossing on M-20 north and west of
Farwell.
He was returning from a party at
Crooked lake pavilion, which had been
attended by a number of young people
from Clare, and he was accompanied
by Miss Erma Bowers, who lives
south and west of Clare, near Stevenson, lake. ' * .'
Miss Bowers was dazed by the
shock, but her injuries are thought
not to be of a serious nature. She
was unable to explain just how the accident occurred, but it is evident that
Mr. Eberhardt did not see the train
until close to the crossing as the position in which the car was lying would'
indicate that he had tried to avoid
the collision by swerving to the right.
The train crew were unaware- of
the accident until they reached Cadillac and were unable to discover any
indication as to what part of the
train was struck by the car until they„
arrived at Mesiek, when a brakeman
found pieces of glass which had been
driven into the wood on the side of
the twenty-first car on the train.
The young man has been employed
in Flint for some time and came
home for a visit ^Saturday afternoon
in company with some other young
men employed in that city.
The car he was driving was a new
btar and^is now a total wreck.
Clyde Arthur Eberhart, son of Mr.
anl Mrs. Martin Eberhart, was bora
March 27, 1908, and died, August 15,
1926. Age 18 years, 4 months and IS
days.
He was born on a farm in Vernon
township-, where he lived until 1921,
when his parents moved to Clare, and
here he attended school two years,
after which he with his brother, Kenneth traveled through the west, and
for the past year he has been employed in the Buick factory at Flint.
He made frequent trips Home on
week ends, and it was on one of
these visits he met with the accident
which caused his death.
He was one of a family of nine children, five boys and four girls.
Those left to mourn his loss are
his parents and three brothers and
three sisters, Mrs. Mabel Heiser, of
Lansing; Lloyd, Kenneth and Emerson, of Clare; and Elsie and Hilda at
home. One brother and sister preceded him in death, Vernon, who died;
four years ago and Mrs. Emma Wilcox who died only last April. , ^*
