Visits Many Historical
Places. Schools in Foreign
Land Not Equal

• (Continued From Last "Week's Issue)
From Milan we went to Venice and
here we found a great difference. We
arrived on the finest night imaginable
and were told that gondolas were
waiting for us at the front -door of
the station. "We embarked with our
luggage and were taken to the hotel.
The gondoliers would call to each
other and sing songs all along the
way.
The next day we set out again to
do some sightseeing around the city.-
We saw a glass factory and watched girls making the embroidered
shawls. Then we visited St. Mark's
Square. This is the one place m
Venice large enough to walk around
in. Of course St. Mark's Cathedral
is beautiful. All done in Mosiac
work. Venice, of course, is famous
for its glass mosiac. We also bisited
the Dage palace, which was formerly
the' home of the Dukes, but is now
the art museumV- Here we saw a
great many beautiful paintings most
Of which were Titan's.
The following day it rained and we
had to stay in our hotel and as we intended td leave the next morning we
did some packing. When wo arose
the next morning tho water had risen
very high. They told us that it was
due to a tidal wave which only comes
once in three years. We wanted to
see a building across the canal, so a
young student and myself started out.
We reached St. Mark's but could go
no further. However it was the day
of celebration of the march to Rome
and all the focisti children and the
naval cadets were out marching so
we watched it and watched the people
being ferried across the water in the
square. Men were barefooted and for
about 25 cents they would carry you
' across the water.
We didn't dare miss our train so
we hurried back to the hotel and
when we arrived we found that the
' water had risen so we couldn't get
in. But they were kindhearted and
let us in through tne kitchen, By
train time we couldn't get out of the
hotel so finally they put a gang plank
across from the window to a steam
launch and loaded us in. We were
glad to leave Venice.
The next place was Florence, but
fwe only stopped here over night and
went on to Rome.. We stayed here
■several days, and visited all the excavation, saw the eleven famous hills
and" of course, we went up to the
Vatican and to St. Peters. Both are
. beautiful. St. Peter's has so many
pictures all made of stone mosiac,
and we were told they have 22,000
different colors in stone. We also
went out the old Appion, Way' and
paid a visit to the Catocombs. They
are very gruesome.
From Rome we visited Naples.
This is the prettiest place in Italy. It
was very warm and the olives were
getting ripe, the oranges were ripening and the Christmas figs were almost ripe. But would you believe it,
all the time we were in Italy they
never served us one fig or one olive.
From Naples we went out to Pompeii and Vesuvius. Pompeii is very
interesting, attho it has a great deal
to be done on it yet in the line of discovery. Vesuvius was stirred up because of Mt, Aetna emptying so it
was not safe to descend in to the
craters.
After leaving Pompeii and Naples
we went back' to Rome over night,
and then up to Pisa where we saw
the Leaning Tower, and to' Genoa.
Here we saw where _ Ghristoplier Columbus was born and the statue
erected to him. Then we went on to
Nice. »
Of course, it wasn't quite the season for the Riviera, but it was very
beautiful. They call it the Cote
d' Azur, which means the Coast of
Blue, and it is the cliffs that look so
* blue, while the Mediterranean is the
. prettiest blue there is. We also went
to see the Casino at Monte Carlo but
it was Off season and only veteran
gamblers were there. It is a beautiful building, but not any prettier than
we have in U, S- A..
From IjTice We journeyed to Paris
and stayed eleven days. The first day
of our sojourn was Armistice so we
went to' the celebration and proceeded
to get lost. We finally got ourselves
straightened around and arrived
home. Then one of the guests at our
Pension took us out and showed us
"low to use the "Metro" (subway).
We saw many interesting buildings
in Paris, The Louvre, which is a
museum and where the MonaLisa, by
da Vinci is, also the painting of
Whistlers, "Mother." The statues of
the Winged Victory and the Venus

ATHLETIC. ASSOCIATION
TO FINANCE BUiLDING
OF SCHOOL BALCONY
.—— ■ .. — %
Improvement to be In Readiness
for Glare-Lowell Game
January fifth
Workmen are engaged in the construction of the balcon*y in the high
school gymnasium and tlie work is
-to. be "completed before the Clare-
Lowell basketball game Saturday,
January 5th,
This improvement was authorized by
the Board of Education, but the expense is to be borne by the high
school athletic association, as. the
cost of funnipg the school and
principal and interest payment on the
bonded indebtedness is all that the
district can afford to pay at this time.
It is a much needed' improvement,
not duly for the, accommodation of
spectators at the athletic contest, but
any other functions of the school
which may be held in the gymnasium
would require this additional seating
capacity;
The athletic association pay for' all
of the expenses of all forms of
athletics in the Clare school, including supplies, equipment, suits and uniforms, officials and traveling expenses of teams and players, and it
requires carefull financing to meet all
of these expenses.
However, they are already making
plans to increase their revenue this
season in order to meet this additional expense, and announcement of
some special features will be made
'n tho near future. They do not expect to make a canvass for subscriptions* but any donations which may
be made by the friends of the school
or association will be gratefully received.

The Primary and Intermediate departments of the Congregational Sunday School presented the Christmas
operetta, "At Home With Santa
Claus," at. the church Sunday evening
before an audience that taxed the
capacity of the auditorium, many persons , being obliged to stand during
the entire program.
There were .forty children in the
cast of characters and the operetta
was one of the best ever presented in
the city.' .The chorus parts were very
good and the vocal soles by Santa
Claus, Mrs. Santa Claus, Merry
Christmas and the Santa Claus family
were exceptionally fine. ' The operetta was directed by Mrs. A. H.
Horton, superintendent of the primary department of the Sunday
School and she was assisted by Mes-
danies H. B." Johnson and W. S. McAllister.
The scene was at the north pole
where Santa Claus proclaimed himself the king o£ the earth, and his
wife, Merry Christmas, bis children
and the fairies and browjiiies were
busily engaged in preparing the gifts
which he was to take from Reindeer
land to the boys and girls of the
earth. ~
In the second act, Santa returns
from his travels and informs his family and helpers that he has heard
some rumor about explorers looking
for the north pole. At this time Commodore Perry and his crew arrive
and tell Santa that the north pole is
the axis upon which the earth turns
instead of being something that grew
up out of the ground to be used as a
throne for Santa Claus. The Eskimos
sang of the goodness of Santa and
the Commodore presented him with
the flag in recognition, of his kingship, over Reindeer Land.
Preceding the operetta, there was*
a welcome dialogue given by Marjorie
Parrish and Wayne Brown. A song
hy tbe kindergarten class, a piano
solo by Alger Brown, recitation by
Alene Cimmerer and a song by the
second grade class4 Mrs, Wylie's
"class sang "Glad Christmas ' Time"
between the acts.
At the beginning of the program,
Mrs. Horton received a telegram from
Santa Claus in which he informed
her that he had started from Reindeer Land with an automobile but had
gone into* the ditch and had been
obliged to return for his reindeers but
expected to arrive at the church at
nine o'clock. At the conclusion of
the opperetta, little Jean Naftzer
sang of "Santa's coming," and just
as she had finished,; Santa arrived
and distributed gifts and cards, much
to the delight of the children.

CHRISTMAS PAGEANT
AT M. E. CHURCH
IS WELL RECEIYED
Children and Teachers Do Themselves Proud in Presenting
Christmas Exercises.
A beautiful Christmas Pageant was
given • by the Methodist Sunday
School under the leadership of Mrs.
Carl Holbrook.
The costumes- were beautiful and
with each particular scene given in
Pantomime it was very effective. Also as each scene was depicted, the
choir, with Mrs. A. E. Mulder leading,
and Mrs. Fred' McGuire at the organ,
sang the old beautiful Christmas
songs, and several solos were rendered by Doris Gerow, Mrs. McGuire and
Mrs. Mulder.
The intermediate and junior boys
and girls added much to the scenes
with their happy voices singing,.
"Away In a Manager" and "Silent
Night."
Mrs. M. W. Hurd, very lovely in a,
white costume, was partially concealed behind a bank of Christmas
trees as'she took the part of the
leader and read responsively with tbe
congregation.
One very beautiful and effective
scene was '-'The Nativity",?led by Mr.
Friz taking the part of Joseph and
Mrs. Friz, in 'a charming costumes,
taking the part of Mary. While this
scene was depicted, the three wise
men, and true shepherds came seeking the Lord and brought their gifts.
Also the scene'where the Christmas minister, teacher and nurse were
try*r.~ to seek anew the Master, was
effective as the children who do not
know Jesus were led in and the. Immigrant and tho Indians came to be
ministered unto.
At the close during the Recessional
all joined in singing, "Joy To The
World."
A very substantial sum was raised
for the Children's Home at Farming-
ton.
PEDESTRIAN HAS
RIGHT^OF WAY
Supreme Court Ruling De-.
clares Person Afoot
Has Rights
It is settled''now. The man or woman afoot, still holds the right ot
way over the motorist. Regardless
of signals, the motorist takes his freedom from the penitentiary in his own
hands when he drives upon a person
walking across the street at an intersection. The United States Court
of Appeals said so this week. The
American Motorists association is
quite stirred in the matter. But this
is final—this court is final.
In effect the, court holds that pedes-
trains have the right of way not only-
at* uncontrolled crossings but also
when they- have entered an intersection on a green light, ancl further
holds that the pedestrain has the
right of way until he reaches the opposite curb without regard to the
change of light during his passage of
the crossing: -
The decision is regarded by the association's legal department as just
and is being called to the attention of
tho motoring public in order that the
motorist may have full knowledge of,
his legal responsibility. %
"When a pedestrain steps from a
curb to cross the street, having a*
green light with him, he does so by
way of invitation and he cannot be
charged with contributory neglect if
the signal switches when he is in the
street. Caught in this position the-
obligation rests upon the motorist not
only to observe the situation but. to
wait until the crossing is clear," the
decision declares.
".Many automobile drivers," added »
the court, seem to imagine that with
the shift of the signal they are given
a clear right-of-way against intersecting traffic."

MANY CONTRIBUTE
FOR BAND UNIFORMS
- , - i v,-----
About One Hundred . Dollars
Yet Needed to Defray
Expense.
About three hundred dollars has
already been contributed by the business men of Clare toward the purchase price of the uniforms for the
Clare high school band, but there is
still about one hundred dollars necessary to be raised.
This project was started by the
Clare Chamber of Commerce about
one year ago at a banquet of the
organization which was held in the
main dining room of the Hotel Doherty, and that evening. Hon. A. J.
Doherty informed President T. Carl
Holbrook that he would start the list
with a fifty dollar contribution.
With this splendid donation to encourage them, the officers of the
organization prepared a subscription
paper and two of the high school boys
called on some of the merchants, but
did not succeed very well, and the
Chamber of Commerce committee
then undertook to raise the necessary
funds.
This high school band has now become a permanent organization of tbe
school and community and they not
only make a fine appearance in the
natty capes and caps which were purchased for them, but they have furnished good music on the several occasions which they have appeared
publicly. '
The list of .contributions are as

Schools in Foreign Land Not Equal to Ours. • (Continued From Last "Week's Issue) From Milan we went to Venice and here we found a great difference. We arrived on the finest night imaginable and were told that gondolas were waiting for us at the front -door of the station. "We embarked with our luggage and were taken to the hotel. The gondoliers would call to each other and sing songs all along the way. The next day we set out again to do some sightseeing around the city.- We saw a glass factory and watched girls making the embroidered shawls. Then we visited St. Mark's Square. This is the one place m Venice large enough to walk around in. Of course St. Mark's Cathedral is beautiful. All done in Mosiac work. Venice, of course, is famous for its glass mosiac. We also bisited the Dage palace, which was formerly the' home of the Dukes, but is now the art museumV- Here we saw a great many beautiful paintings most Of which were Titan's. The following day it rained and we had to stay in our hotel and as we intended td leave the next morning we did some packing. When wo arose the next morning tho water had risen very high. They told us that it was due to a tidal wave which only comes once in three years. We wanted to see a building across the canal, so a young student and myself started out. We reached St. Mark's but could go no further. However it was the day of celebration of the march to Rome and all the focisti children and the naval cadets were out marching so we watched it and watched the people being ferried across the water in the square. Men were barefooted and for about 25 cents they would carry you ' across the water. We didn't dare miss our train so we hurried back to the hotel and when we arrived we found that the ' water had risen so we couldn't get in. But they were kindhearted and let us in through tne kitchen, By train time we couldn't get out of the hotel so finally they put a gang plank across from the window to a steam launch and loaded us in. We were glad to leave Venice. The next place was Florence, but fwe only stopped here over night and went on to Rome.. We stayed here ■several days, and visited all the excavation, saw the eleven famous hills and" of course, we went up to the Vatican and to St. Peters. Both are . beautiful. St. Peter's has so many pictures all made of stone mosiac, and we were told they have 22,000 different colors in stone. We also went out the old Appion, Way' and paid a visit to the Catocombs. They are very gruesome. From Rome we visited Naples. This is the prettiest place in Italy. It was very warm and the olives were getting ripe, the oranges were ripening and the Christmas figs were almost ripe. But would you believe it, all the time we were in Italy they never served us one fig or one olive. From Naples we went out to Pompeii and Vesuvius. Pompeii is very interesting, attho it has a great deal to be done on it yet in the line of discovery. Vesuvius was stirred up because of Mt, Aetna emptying so it was not safe to descend in to the craters. After leaving Pompeii and Naples we went back' to Rome over night, and then up to Pisa where we saw the Leaning Tower, and to' Genoa. Here we saw where _ Ghristoplier Columbus was born and the statue erected to him. Then we went on to Nice. » Of course, it wasn't quite the season for the Riviera, but it was very beautiful. They call it the Cote d' Azur, which means the Coast of Blue, and it is the cliffs that look so * blue, while the Mediterranean is the . prettiest blue there is. We also went to see the Casino at Monte Carlo but it was Off season and only veteran gamblers were there. It is a beautiful building, but not any prettier than we have in U, S- A.. From IjTice We journeyed to Paris and stayed eleven days. The first day of our sojourn was Armistice so we went to' the celebration and proceeded to get lost. We finally got ourselves straightened around and arrived home. Then one of the guests at our Pension took us out and showed us "low to use the "Metro" (subway). We saw many interesting buildings in Paris, The Louvre, which is a museum and where the MonaLisa, by da Vinci is, also the painting of Whistlers, "Mother." The statues of the Winged Victory and the Venus (Continued on last page) ATHLETIC. ASSOCIATION TO FINANCE BUiLDING OF SCHOOL BALCONY .—— ■ .. — % Improvement to be In Readiness for Glare-Lowell Game January fifth Workmen are engaged in the construction of the balcon*y in the high school gymnasium and tlie work is -to. be "completed before the Clare- Lowell basketball game Saturday, January 5th, This improvement was authorized by the Board of Education, but the expense is to be borne by the high school athletic association, as. the cost of funnipg the school and principal and interest payment on the bonded indebtedness is all that the district can afford to pay at this time. It is a much needed' improvement, not duly for the, accommodation of spectators at the athletic contest, but any other functions of the school which may be held in the gymnasium would require this additional seating capacity; The athletic association pay for' all of the expenses of all forms of athletics in the Clare school, including supplies, equipment, suits and uniforms, officials and traveling expenses of teams and players, and it requires carefull financing to meet all of these expenses. However, they are already making plans to increase their revenue this season in order to meet this additional expense, and announcement of some special features will be made 'n tho near future. They do not expect to make a canvass for subscriptions* but any donations which may be made by the friends of the school or association will be gratefully received.

There were .forty children in the cast of characters and the operetta was one of the best ever presented in the city.' .The chorus parts were very good and the vocal soles by Santa Claus, Mrs. Santa Claus, Merry Christmas and the Santa Claus family were exceptionally fine. ' The operetta was directed by Mrs. A. H. Horton, superintendent of the primary department of the Sunday School and she was assisted by Mes- danies H. B." Johnson and W. S. McAllister. The scene was at the north pole where Santa Claus proclaimed himself the king o£ the earth, and his wife, Merry Christmas, bis children and the fairies and browjiiies were busily engaged in preparing the gifts which he was to take from Reindeer land to the boys and girls of the earth. ~ In the second act, Santa returns from his travels and informs his family and helpers that he has heard some rumor about explorers looking for the north pole. At this time Commodore Perry and his crew arrive and tell Santa that the north pole is the axis upon which the earth turns instead of being something that grew up out of the ground to be used as a throne for Santa Claus.

CHURCH IS WELL RECEIYED Children and Teachers Do Themselves Proud in Presenting Christmas Exercises. A beautiful Christmas Pageant was given • by the Methodist Sunday School under the leadership of Mrs. Carl Holbrook. The costumes- were beautiful and with each particular scene given in Pantomime it was very effective. Also as each scene was depicted, the choir, with Mrs. A. E. Mulder leading, and Mrs. Fred' McGuire at the organ, sang the old beautiful Christmas songs, and several solos were rendered by Doris Gerow, Mrs. McGuire and Mrs. Mulder. The intermediate and junior boys and girls added much to the scenes with their happy voices singing,. "Away In a Manager" and "Silent Night." Mrs. M. W. Hurd, very lovely in a, white costume, was partially concealed behind a bank of Christmas trees as'she took the part of the leader and read responsively with tbe congregation. One very beautiful and effective scene was '-'The Nativity",?led by Mr. Friz taking the part of Joseph and Mrs. Friz, in 'a charming costumes, taking the part of Mary. While this scene was depicted, the three wise men, and true shepherds came seeking the Lord and brought their gifts. Also the scene'where the Christmas minister, teacher and nurse were try*r.~ to seek anew the Master, was effective as the children who do not know Jesus were led in and the. Immigrant and tho Indians came to be ministered unto. At the close during the Recessional all joined in singing, "Joy To The World." A very substantial sum was raised for the Children's Home at Farming- ton. PEDESTRIAN HAS RIGHT^OF WAY Supreme Court Ruling De-. clares Person Afoot Has Rights It is settled''now. The man or woman afoot, still holds the right ot way over the motorist. Regardless of signals, the motorist takes his freedom from the penitentiary in his own hands when he drives upon a person walking across the street at an intersection. The United States Court of Appeals said so this week. The American Motorists association is quite stirred in the matter. But this is final—this court is final. In effect the, court holds that pedes- trains have the right of way not only- at* uncontrolled crossings but also when they- have entered an intersection on a green light, ancl further holds that the pedestrain has the right of way until he reaches the opposite curb without regard to the change of light during his passage of the crossing: - The decision is regarded by the association's legal department as just and is being called to the attention of tho motoring public in order that the motorist may have full knowledge of, his legal responsibility. % "When a pedestrain steps from a curb to cross the street, having a* green light with him, he does so by way of invitation and he cannot be charged with contributory neglect if the signal switches when he is in the street. Caught in this position the- obligation rests upon the motorist not only to observe the situation but. to wait until the crossing is clear" the decision declares. ".Many automobile drivers" added » the court, seem to imagine that with the shift of the signal they are given a clear right-of-way against intersecting traffic." F. Hileman, Saginaw; man,,, Mt.

About three hundred dollars has already been contributed by the business men of Clare toward the purchase price of the uniforms for the Clare high school band, but there is still about one hundred dollars necessary to be raised. This project was started by the Clare Chamber of Commerce about one year ago at a banquet of the organization which was held in the main dining room of the Hotel Doherty, and that evening. Hon. A. J. Doherty informed President T. Carl Holbrook that he would start the list with a fifty dollar contribution. With this splendid donation to encourage them, the officers of the organization prepared a subscription paper and two of the high school boys called on some of the merchants, but did not succeed very well, and the Chamber of Commerce committee then undertook to raise the necessary funds. This high school band has now become a permanent organization of tbe school and community and they not only make a fine appearance in the natty capes and caps which were purchased for them, but they have furnished good music on the several occasions which they have appeared publicly. ' The list of .contributions are as follows: A. J. Doherty, Sr. . T. Carl Holbrook N. L. Tibbils S. Bogardus Friz Undertaking Co.
