During Season.
Basket Brail Starts December 7th
and First Home Game
is December 14th.
Clare high school completed their
football schedule and closed a very
successful season at Ward's field last
Friday, with a 19 to 0.victory over
Midland high. The game was a battle
royal from "start to finish and was one
of the most exciting and thrilling
gridiron contests ever witnessed in
Glare.
The first three quarters ended in a
scoreless tie, but in the last period,
Clare intercepted a forward pass and
then fighting like demons, marched
down the field on straight football for
four first downs and over the goal line
for a touchdown. The second touchdown came soon afterwards when
Johnson intercepted a forward pass
and carried the ball 15 yards. Thayer
then plunged through the center for
a gain of 12 yards and Grover shot a
forward pass over the goal line that
was taken by Hearns. The- third
touchdoun cas made by Thayer when
he took an 18 yard forward pass from
Grover and ran 40 yards to the Midland goal line. Only one attempt at
a drop kick for the extra point was
successful.
Midland has a strong team that
played hard but clean, and they Avere"
worthy opponents of the Aldread men
who seemed to be at their very best
for this game. However, the locals
outplayed 'the visitors and made 12
first downs to their opponents 6.  •
Tills was the seventh won out of
eight games played and the Clare goal
has been crossed but twice this season, and both touchdowns that were
scored against them was by St. Louis,
to whom they lost by one point, the
score being 14 to 13. The locals have
scored a total of 216 points this season.
Coach Floyd Aldread is deserving of
the success which has come to his
team, for he has worked hard and
| faithfully to develop team work and
X, teach them the fundamentals of foot-
■'"' ball. He has had the wholehearted
support of Superintendent Bogan and
Principal Tichenor, and the boys of
■ his squad respect their coach and do
their best to carry out his instructions.
With the football season ended, the
coach will now devote his time and
attention to,"*the training of his basketball squad and after a short rest,
practice for this form of athletics
will begin in the gymnasiums. The
first games on the schedule are with
Boyne City and Charlevoix on a two
day northern trip, December 7 th and
8th, and the first home game is with
Reed City, December 14th.
MR. AND IRS. C. DURFEE
READERS OF SENTINEL
OVER FORTY YEARS
Wednesday morning Mrs. C. Durfee
visited- The Sentinel office and renewed her subscription for the fortieth
time. She is listed among the oldest
subscribers of this paper. Mrs. Durfee states that during this period of
time they have made their home continuously in Hatton township. Prior
to locating on their present farm of
235 acres, they resided in the village
of Hatton, which had a population ol
about seven hundred and fifty people
and an average attendance in school
of over one hundred twenty-five
pupils. As the timber industry decreased the people began to leave for
other locations, until now nothing is
left of this once thriving little burg,
except a shipping point for livestock.
The Pere Marquette railroad continues to run a train through to Harrison several times a week and many
hundreds of sheep are loaded and un-
'*. loaded at this point for .the large
-_>v ranches in the section.
*- In spite of the opportunities offered
in the cities, Mr. and Mrs. Durfee
have labored earnestly and diligently
on their farm and are proud of its appearance and the large flocks of livestock and other holdings that they
possess.
It is The Sentinel's wish that thi
esteemed couple may enjoy health
and prosperty during the remainder
of their sojourn here and» if it be their,
wish,'that all their days may be spent
in Hatton—their home.

1928 ATTENDANCE AT
WILSON STATE PARK
(By E. M. T. Service)
Attendance at Wilson State Park
during the 1928 tourist season was
59,751, according^ to statistics compiled at the office of P*. J. Hoffmaster,
superintendent. of state parks, Lansing. These people came from Michigan and 18 other states and Canada.
Of those who visited the Wilson
State Park 5,431 were campers, an
average of very nearly 10 per cent.
This number of campers indicates
quite conclusively the exceptional appeal of the park for campers when it
is considered that the average number of campers in all state parks for
the year 1928 was only 4,5 per cent.
The number of camps built in Wilson State Park was 1,507.
Notice
In regard to me leaving Mr. Hitchcock's bed and board, that is a false
statement. He provided neither one
for me, He being unable to keep two
homes, I wa« compelled to pay my
own bills and also bought clothes for
him &a his former home was-given the
prefei'e&ce.

MRS. MARGARET
CLEVELAND DEPARTS
LIFE MONDAY
Deceased Has Been a Resident of This Vicinity For
Nearly Half Century. *
The' large gathering which entirely
filled the auditorium of the Methodist
church at the funeral Wednesday afternoon of Mrs. Margaret Cleveland
attested the great respect in which
she was held and the many friends
she had made during her years of res-
;jjle_nce in this .vicinity. Rev. Hurd
preached the sermon and' Mrs. McAllister sang two beautiful solos with
Mrs, McGuire at the organ.
The deceased was* born in Ontario.
Canada, July 27th, 1856. She came
to the states with her parents and
lived in different places until at the
age of twenty-three she came to Michigan. Here she married New'el H.
Cleveland at Wise, in 1883. There
were four children born, a son, Chester Floy aud daughter, Alta Floy,
dying in. infancy. Two sons, Harry
L., and William J., survive her. Her
husband died eight years ago. She also leaves two brothers, H. S. Lansing,
of Lansing, who was present at the
funeral, and Wm. J., of Spokane,
Wash., ahd three sisters, Mrs. Joel
DcGeer, of Flint, who was present,
■Mrs. Anna Trask, of Cheney, Wash.;
and Mrs. Minnie Ferret, of Vancouver, Wash., together with nine grandchildren. '
Although death was quite suddenly,
it was not unexpected. She has made
her home with her son, William,
"where she passed away at the age of
seventy-two years, three months, and
seventeen days. She gave her heart
to the Lord in. her youth and united
with the Methodist Episcopal church
of which she always remained a faithful and loyal member. She was also
a member of the Ancient Order^,of
Gleaners. Mrs. Cleveland was a hai'd
worker, greatly devoted to her home
interests, and will be greatly missed
by many sincere friends, as* has already been manifested by the many
hands who ministered to her needs.
Armistice Day was observed in*
Clare Sunday afternoon, under the.
auspices of the Walter A, Larman
post of the American Legion, and the
exercises which were held in the
high school auditorium, was attended
by a vast audience that filled every
seat and overflowed into the balcony
and the corridors, and many left the--
building aB there was not even standing room for them.
An invocation by Rev. W. W. Hurd
of the Methodist jEjpiscopal church
was followed by a patriotic pageant
which was given by. the grade students of the school under the direction of Miss Doris Gerow, third gjrade
teacher. The little folks took their
parts in a very impressive and commendable manner. ' '
The  high  school band, attired    in
their neat ancl natty uniform capes,
of green and white, which were purchased for them    recently    by     the
j Clare Chamber of Commerce, made a,
I very  pleasing  and  beautiful appear-
I suce, and delighted the audience with
r'de music which they furnished under
j the direction of George Boyd,
i    The male quartette   composed   "ot
' Messrs.   Cudney,   Elden,   Boyd   and.
.Fleming with Ross Thompson at the
->iano, sang two numbers and -Messrs.
..''den ancl Boyd sang a sacred vocal
duet. The poem, "In Flanders Fields"
was read very impi-essively by Miss
Louisa   Rogers   of the   high   school
faculty, and she was accompanied on
the piano by Miss Doris Gerow.
#The principal  address  of the  day
was delivered by Hon. Dennis E, Alward, who at present is secretary of
the Michigan  State  Senate.    Mr. Alward came to Clare in August 1880,
ahd was associated with the business
and newspaper interests in Clare and
maintained his home in this city until 1915, when, because of his official,
duties in Lansing, he moved to that,
city.    However, he has always maintained  his   legal  residence In  Clare
and. yotes in the second ward of this,
city.    Mr. Alward takes a great   interest in   everything   that   concerns;-
the progress ancl welfare    of    Clare-'
and has a host of friends among   the-
young as well as the older residents--
of the city.
■In this address, Mr. Alward talked!
to the audience as one neighbor talks-
to another, and the generous-applause
at the close of his speech gave evidence of the appreciation of the vast
crowd for the sincere message of
their fellow townsman.
The speaker reviewed briefly   the.
horrors of the great war which endecX
ten years  ago, in which ten millions
people were driven from their homes;,
