FORD AGENCY
TO HOLD PUBLIC
RECEPTOR TODAY
I. E.  Hampton, Agent,  to
Show Superiority of New
Ford Gar During Event.
The full story of the new Ford
automobile, described by Henry Ford
as being "superior'in design and per-
-ormance to any now available in the
low price, light car field," will be told
in Clare tpday at the 1, B. Hampton
sales anfl service rooms.
A public reception -is held here
simultaneously with similar gatherings at every Ford dealer's in the
, United* States, thus constituting a part
ot the greatest automobile show in the
history of the industry,
"Mr. Ford's statement that "there
is nothing quitfe like it in quality and
price,'' had prepared . us for a surprise,'' said Mr, Hampton, "but the
new Ford car is better even than we
'had hoped for, and is certain to make
.JKstory in the automobile industry,
' just as its predecessor, the famous
Model T. has made history for twenty
years. We are proud of the new car
and feel certain that its appearance
and performance will attract attention
among automobile owners.
Unusual speed and acceleration are
among- the outstanding features of
this car. It is announced as being;
able to make 55 to 60 miles an hour,
with .ease, and what is more important, it is stated that when traveling
at such speeds, it holds the road easily, and with comfort to driver and
passengers. In high gear tests with
two passengers in a Tudor sedan it
has shoWn an acceleration of from 5
to 25 miles an hour in S 1-2, seconds.
The new Ford car also introduces a
new type of four-wheel brakes. An
exclusive Ford development, they are
of the mechanical, shoe-expanding
type, and are self-centering. The
brake pedals and the hand brake each
operates all four brakes.
An engine that is practically vibra-
. tionless develops 40 horsepower at
2,200 revolutions per minute. This
low revolution speed in ratio to the
high horsepower is illustrative of the
unusual effeciency of the engine, and
means longer life. The bore is 3 7-8
inches, stroke 4 1-4 inches. The unusually large crankshaft, which is
tooth statically and dynamically balanced, weighs 28 pounds. This balancing, combined with the lightness
^ ol aluminum alloy pistons, combine to
*^~ reduce vibration. The timing gears
are made of bakelized fabric, and the
cam's are designed as to prevent
clicking.
The coachwork of the ca** Is as distinctive as its performance. There is
a noticeable European touch in line
and contour. It is designed for exterior roominess and luxurious appointments. On an instrument board
of satin-finished nickel are mounted
the speedometer, gasoline gauge, ammeter and ignition lock, with a dash-
light in the center. The new military-
type sun visor, with crown roof and
round corners, are -features of the
closed models, Narrow pillars ana
wide doors and windows give maximum vision, The radiator shell ancl
headlamps -are nickled and there is a
choice Of four colors " in pyroxylin
finish offered.
One coil in a waterproof case, no
vibrators to adjust and no exposed
cables to work loose or short circuit-
from water, and the distributor is
located in a readily accessible position on top of the engine.
Centrifugal    water     pump,     largo
radiator and    airplane   propeller-type
fam provide a cooling   system   which
makes the car very difficult to over-
x.    heat.
From 20 to 30 miles to a gallon of
gasoline, new oiling system, transmission of the selective sliding gear type,
with standard shift, three speeds forward and one reverse, irreversible
steering gear, steel spoke wheels, and
newly developed springs of the transverse semi-elliptic type and hydraulic shock-absorbers which prevent excessive up-and-down movements and remove side sway are just
a few of the distinctive features of
this new Ford car.
The main shaft and counter-shaft
ball bearings, multiple dry-disc
clutch, floating type rear axle and
spiral bevel gear are all the products
of the highest type of engineering
efficiency.
There are six models of the new
car.. They are the "phaeton, roadster,
sport coupe, coupe, tudor sedan and
Fordor sedan,
Mr. Hampton has planned to receive the public at his show rooms today- and models of this new line will
be shown in photographs and Charts,

FRANK SCHAAF DIES
SUDDENLY AT HARRIS
Deceased Had Wide Acquaintance to Whom His  Demise
Will be a Shock.   J
Frank Schaaf died at his home in
Harrison, Michigan,, at 8:30 o'clock,.]
on the morning of November 21st,
1927, aged 66 years, nine months and
five-days. He was adjusting the grate
in the home fireplace, when the extra
exertion required in the performance
of this Slight household task became
too great, for his evidently weakened
constitution, resulting from a heart
trouble of several months duration,
and uttering a slight inarticulate
sound, fell backward into a peaceful
sleep. Kindly neighbors were called
and artlfical respiration resorted to,
but nothing devoted hands might do
could stem the hand of death,*
Frank Schaaf was born rin Venice
township, -Senaca counfcy, Ohio, February 16th, 1861. He was married
January 20, 1884, to Bertha M, Weaver.. Six children bless this union.
About a quarter century ago, the
family moved to Greenwood township,
Clare county. Beginning in 1920, a
residence in Mount Pleasant was acquired in order to make use of the excellent educational advantages offered by that city. In 1924 a removal to
Detroit was made to be, near the children, and where the Ford interest*?
offered lucrative employment to the
deceased. On the 20th of September
last the family removed to 'Harrison.;
to make in this city a permanent
home—to spend their remaining days
in quiet and peace.
The deceased is survived by his
wife, three sons, Fred W. and Don L.,
of Harrison; Carl C, of Detroit; three
daughters, Bernice M, Collins, ot'
Flint; Gladys N. Hallgren and Dora
F. Egbert, Of Detroit; one brother,
Martin L., of Carrothers, Ohio; two
sisters, Ghristiana Deisler, and Or-
lena Flohr, both of Bucyrus, Ohio and
many other relatives and friends,
Frank Schaaf was a devoted husband and father, a kindly neighbor,
an esteemed citizen; a loyal member
of John J. Carton Lodge No. 436 F.
<_ A. M., a staunch Republican in his
political affiliations, a fearless contender for right, a firm believer in the
bright possibilities the future holds
in store for Clare county, and a resident whose demise is an incalcuable
loss to the city of Harrison and Clare
county in general.
Frank Schaaf always lived happily
and at peace with his fellow men, he
never failed to extend a kindly greet-
inp to the passerby, a knight of the
"house by the side of the road'" could
not have possessed a more hospitable
heart, he saw the roses and avoided
the thorns, life was continual joy to
him, he .died as he lived (with a
smile .upon his countenance), and
there should be no moaning at ttie
bar over the passing of so good a
man, for his reward shall be great, Indeed.
Funeral services were held at the
Congregational church in Harrison,
Friday forenoon, conducted by Rev.
H. B. Johnson, of Clare, assisted by
R*ev. A. F. Light, of Harrison, and interment was in the Harrison cemetery
where John J. Carton Lodge No. 436
F. & A. M. conducted the burial services.
AGED FREEMAN CITIZEN
TAILED BEYOND
Gains Finch, undoubtedly the oldest
resident of Freeman township, passed
away November 15th at the home of
his brother, Merrit Finch. Funeral
services were held from the Gleaner
Hall, Lake the following Friday, conducted by Rev. W. W. Hurd, with
with burial at the Lake cemetery.
Mr, Finch was born in Macomb
county 1839 and^ moved to Hillsdale
in 1865. He took Miss Almlra Sabins,
of Dow*?giac, as liis bride ih March
25, 1882 and two children were born
to them, namely Carrie and Warren,
the latter preceded his father in death
six months and five days.
The daughter, a brother and a wide
circle of friends are left to mourn
their loss.

Speaker States That Dairy Cows
Are Often Underfed Causing
Low  Milk  Production.
"The majority o£ our dairy cows
are about half fed," was the rather
startling statement made by A. C
Baltzer of the Michigan State College,
at the session of the agricultural
night school held in the auditorium
Tuesday •evening.
He said the average dairy farmer
had not studied the feeding needs ot
cows, and most cows are fed for
maintainance chiefly ancl not enough
attention is givon for milk production,
"Depending on tlie size; milking'
ability and test, the requirements for
leeding vary in both the amounts ancl
quality of the feeds used. A cow
which is half fed can maintain herself, but cannot produce mills: effectually. Cows cannot make milk
from nothing.
Mr. Baltzer recommended alfalfa as
the basis for good dairy feed, and
sweet clover pasture for the summer.
He urged " the increase of alfalfa
acreage for this section, and Said that
alfalfa furnished an excellent source
of mineral matter and proteins which
hre essential for milk production.
"Silage and root crops, provide
succulence and bulk and is chiefly, a
source of energy. Grains fed in bulky
mixtures with laxative properties and
having good tastiness ate most de-
jsirable. Balancing the rations for the
cow saves money and furnishes the
proper feed in correct amounts for
the animal.".
Mr. Baltzer gave illustrations from
the experiences of farmers who have
studied the feeds and feeding of their
dairy coWs, to prove the practical
value of tests and proper feeding.
There was a large attendance of
farmers and great interest is being
taken in this Work.        ,
Mr, Baltzer is to visit Glare again
on the evening of December 12th and
Will Work out sample rations for
'dairy cows which will be adaptable

SCHOOL OFEICERS' MEETING LARGELY ATTENDED
One Hundred  Thirty Officials
Meet to Hear Instructive Dis-
/ cussions on Educational
Topics.
One liun-'dred thirty of the" school officials of Clare county assembled at
the Court House in Harrison pn
Tuesday of tliis Week in response to a
call from the state superintendent of
public instruction. The occasion was
the biennial meeting of the officers,*
called in accordance' with a very wise
provision found iu the general school
laws of the state. The attendance
was by far the largest ever recorded
in the educational annals of the
county, Both sessions were unusually Instructive and inspiring throughout.
The officers were very fortunate in
having George N. Otweh\for speaker
and instructor. He has been with the
-department for many years, knows
every corner and nock of Michigan,
is thoroughly acquainted with all manlier of school problems, and Is an expert, -second to none, in expounding
(he technical points of laws governing
education iu our great commonwealth.
Mr, OtwelJ spent a major portion of
his time discussing "The New School
Code." He stated that it was the
inborn right of every citizen of the
state to-enter court with his troubles
and make an *exlt therefrom a much
wiser person in more ways than one.
But the present day *trend is to become familiar with laws through
reading, personal instruction, competent advice from an attorney, and
thereby avoid the delay and expense
common to the usual court procedure.
The "School* Code" will simplify
matters for the officers. It will be an,
easy task for them to, find a much desired clause of the law. Non-essentials have been eliminated and the
legal terms and language simplified.
An endeavor will be made to have
Secretary of State Haggerty patronize
the state printer to the extent that
each district officer may have a copy
of the "Code." In recent years only
one copy of the general school laws
has been alloted to each school board.
In the discussions Mr, Otwell covered very carefully the following topic:
Primary School district, graded
school district, powers, duties and requirements of districts, alteration and
consolidation of districts, school elections, the district board, vacancies, in
office, registration and qualifications
of voters, appeals from action of
township board, bonded indebtedness
of districts, sites of school houses,
compulsory education, tuition of
eighth' grade pupils, day schools for the
deaf, dumb and crippled, teachers'
certificates, suspension of teachers'
certificates, libraries, the school census, etc. At all times the officers in*
attendance were permitted to ask
questions.
Immediately' following the noon recess Commissioner Aldrich was given
an opportunity to make a few remarks
to the officers. He spoke of the excellent attendance, the cooperation
given him by the officers at all times,
and long years of unselfish service
given by them to their respective districts. Three officers, Steven Robbins (resigned),; Louis Finch and
Charles Bailey, each having had the
honor of being a school officer for a
period of thirty years or more. No
greater honor could befall, a citizen of
Michigan—to be one of a group directing the education of the boys arid girls
for a duration of time as long as a
score years and ten.
In addition Commissioner Aldrich
spoke on the subject of the "Standard
School." Clare county has one of
this stamp, and twenty-two more are
nearly ready to receive the "Standard" plate.
DELWMTES ARE
GUESTSfflj:. OF C.
Meetings Bringing a Closer
Community   Life   and
Fellowship as a Re- *
'suit of Series.
One hundred men from Clare and
De-win,-, were served an, excellent dinger at the D.elwin Gleaner Hall, Wednesday evening, by the ladies of that
community, at the fifth Goodfellow-
ship meeting sponsored by. the Clare
Chamber of Commerce this fall.
George White presided as toastmaster and 'distinguished himself in jthat
capacity. At the beginning of the
program, George informed the audience that he had. received so many
written requests from the men of
Clare, asking that they be given an
opportunity to speak, that lie had experienced considerable difficulty in
arranging the program. The letters
he claimed Whave'received were read
by the toastmaster as he introduced
the speakers. While some of the
audience believed George, in this
capacity to be a first class prevaricat-
j or, it was the unanimous opinion that
he could not compare with W. S. McAllister, one* of the speakers, wlio described his farming experiences when
a pioneer about One hundred years
ago.
The business men's band was better than ever, and many of the Clare
men expressed _ regrets that there
were not other meetings to attend, so
these men might be able to continue
this musical organization.
John Nelson, vice-president of the
Clare Chamber of Commerce extended
the welcome to the farmer guests iri
behalf of the Claise business men.
Frank Latimer, Ed. White,- Ray
Strout, Frank Stuber, Thomas Law-
land and Rev. L. M. Whitney represented the men of Delwin and gave
brief talks. L. E. Davy, H. B. Johnson,
B, N. Mercer, Jas. F. Tatman and
Rev. WT. W. Hurd of Clare were in
traduced and spoke briefly. Floyd 'Aldread, Coach of the Clare high school
gave an amusing monologue.
The spirit of the gathering was one
of friendliness and goodwill, and the
speakers expressed their confidence
in the effectiveness of meetings of
this kind to bring back a closer community life and fellowship, which the
rush of modern life, together with
rapid transportation ljas tended tc
destroy. The Clare men pledged their
co-operation to the farmers in their
attempts to solve the farm problems
of marketing,,production and legislation.

DELEGATION HEARD AT
LAN5;NG MONDAY
Representation Request Paving
of U. S. 27 Along Its
Present Route.
Setenty-five men representing
Alma, Forest Hill, Shepherd, Mt
Pleasant, Rosebush and .Clare, were
granted a hearing by Governor Fred
W. Green and the State Administrative. Board at their meeting in Lau-
s*ng Monday, and requested the early
paving of that part of U. S. 27 that
lies between Alma and Clare, along
its present route.
The delegation referred to the increasing traffic on this 36 mile stretch
of road, and the difficulty of maintaining it, especially during the''fall of the
year, when thousands of tons of*
sugar begets are transported by, trucks
to the sugar plants at Alma and Mt.
Pleasant, and farm produce is delivered to the elevators of the busy towns
along this route. . Students of the colleges at Alma and Mt. Pleasant add.
to this increased traffic at this particular season, and this student traffic
as well as the trucks is not included
in the traffic count of the highway department, for that count is usually
taken during the summer when the
farmers are busy in their fields.
"'" The delegation referred to U. S. 27
as the "Main street" of Michigan, because of its use for twelve months of
the year, and from the fact that it is
the best direct route between the
Ohio line and the straits of Mackinaw,
and takes care of an immense amount
of traffic during the summer that
comes to it from the east and west
trunk lines.
Rev. H.'B. Johnson was spokesman
ior the delegation and presented these
facts to the Governor and Administrative Board, and introduced Mr. Hartman, City Manager of Alma, Dr. Johnson, of Rosebush; I. C, Moody, of
Forest Hill, O. L. Burdick, of Shep
herd; State representatives Fuller, of
Alma, and Ernest Dexter, and Rev.,
i-awkins of Mt. Pleasant. Each of
these men spoke briefly.
The petition of- the delegation was
referred to the highway committee of.
the Administrative Board.
Clare was repnesented by County,
Road   Commissioner   John  Asline,   S. i
M. Callihan, L. E. Davy   and   H.   B.

Procedure to be followed by certain.
groups of motorists before they can
obtain their 1928 automobile license
plates was explained yesterday by
Tony Achard, branch manager of the
department of state branch at the
'Clare Realty Co., office building,
where auto licenses will go on sale
next Thursday. • .
Mr. Achard pointed out the preliminaries ' that must be followed 'bf
persons, who have bought second hand
cars during the past year, persons
who have bought-cars outside of Michigan, or who have moved to Michigan
from other states. Urging that these
things be taken, care of as .soon as
possible, as there may be some delay
after the rush for plates has started,
Mr. AchUrd said.
"Persons who are driving the* same
cai*s they had a year ago, or persons
seeking plates for new cars should
have no trouble, but persons who
have bought second hand cars during
the year and want 1928 license plates
for them should be careful tO see
that all the requirements for transfer of title and transfer of the 1927
plates have been complied witli.
"This means, not only that the
former owner must make the assignment of title on the back of the certificate, but that the present owner
must make application for a new certificate (the form for this is on the
back of the„ old certificate), and must
make the proper application for transfer of the 1927 license plates on the
form provided for the purpose by the
state.
"Any of the garages where there
are notaries public can handle this
for the new owner; the automobile
company from which the car was purchased undoubtedly can take care of
it for the owner*
"Motorists who have purchased
their cars outside the state and persons moving in from other states to
live in Michigan also must take the
necessary steps to secure Michigan
titleg for their cars. This cannot be
done at our office and must be taken
care of by the secretary of state at
Lansing. To get the Michigan title
the owner must send to the secretary
of state his certificate of title from
the original state—if that state has a
certificate of title law, or. otherwise,
the bill of sale—together with the certificate of registration from the
original state. His application for
Michigan title and license must accompany them.
"Persons who have to do any of
these things should do it as soon as
possible as there may be some delay
if they wait until the rush has started.
If they need any further,information,
we can give it to them, if they will
come to our office at Clare Realty
Co., Office building, but they should
uo so as soon as possible, as it will
be difficult to take care of then after
the rush for plates has started.
