COMMITTEE SELECTS
SITE ON NORTH

Glare is First County in State
to Undertake Trout
Rearing Project.
Mayor Hether and Supervisors
Carpenter and Hutchinson, constituting the Board ot Supervisors committee on the . establishment of trout.
Tearing ponds, met last Friday and
, selected the site for the ponds.
There were several very desirable
locations but the committee, acting
on the advice of Mr. Thayer ot North-
ville, who was in Glare recently, decided in favor of the creek that
^crosses trunkline highway U. S, 27
Just west of Cunningham hill, eleven
miles north of Clare.
This is a spring fed stream and one
■of the many tributaries of the North
Branch of the Tobacco river. There
is plenty of water throughout the entire summer season and it is upon
this stream that Jack Myers, com-,
monly called "Grisley Ike" planned to
build a .water wheel and old fashioned mill and establish an Indian village.
The ponds will be built in close
proximity to the new road which is
being built from the Cunningham
hill to Harrison, and will have a
capacity of at least one million trouc
fry and other ponds will he built as
necessity requires.
When the rearing ponds are completed, the bureau of fisheries of the
United . States Department of Commerce will furnish the fry to stock
the ponds ancl will also provide sup
ervision, paying the salary of a supervisor for a period of six months each
year, and in the fall the trout will be
divided equally between the county
and the federal bureau.
The Clare county ponds will no
doubt -attract considerable attention
from tourists who travel along this i '-•""•'■"s'
important highway, and also fromi^elen Martin,

Miss Hoag of G. S. C. Gave
Excellent Talk at Meeting
Held at Home of Mrs.
F. C. Sanford
Tuesday.
Last Tuesday afternoon, the members of the Clare Study Club, met ac
the home of Mrs. P. C. Sanford for
a "Better Homes" program.
Mrs. J. A. Nelson was chairman
ancl arranged a most interesting program.
Miss Hoag, from the C. S. T.
College Home Economics Department
gave a talk on the "Profession of
Home-Making," which was both
practical and interesting.
Among other things she said, "We
have-a national better homes week
but lets make every week in the
year, better homes week.
Home-making is a practical art, a
profession, and a business: It is not
the mother's job, alorie, but needs
the co-operation of the fathers, as
well.
There are good homes, bad homes,
and bewildered homes. The good
homes will take care of themselves,
while social agencies will take care
of the Dad homes, but what's to become of the bewildered homes?
In a good home we find good reading, recreational, life, and religious
influence. One of the first requirements of a home-maker is an understanding of the care of health.
Right food helps to make cheerful
companionship and wise spending
gives a feeling of security in the
home.
Our talented music chairman, Mrs.
Donald Bicknell, and the members of
the music department, worked up an
especially fine program from the
opera "The Prince of Pilsem" for the
last meeting, and by request the

TURKEY TO SPEAK
IN CLARE SUNDAY
Miss Theda Phelps to Have
Charge of Morning Services
at Congregational Cnurch.
Miss Theda Phelps, who for eighteen years has worked as a missionary nurse in the interior of Turkey,
will speak in the Congregational
church next Sunday moring at the
regular service of worship.
Miss Phelps is the sister of George
Phelps, former Clare resident and
proprietor of the Phelps Cafeteria,
who now lives in Greenville. She is
in this country for a furlough and after a few weeks visit with Mr. ancl
Mrs. Phelps in Greenville, and a brief
stay with other relatives in Detroit,
Chicago ancl Philadelphia will return
to resume her work in Turkey.
Miss 'Phelps went to Turkey in
1911 and came back to this country
during the war, then went back to
Asia in 1918 in behalf ot the Near
East Relief. She, with her fellow
workers, sailed from Seattle, Washington, November Sth.
With only three days Journey behind them, the armistice was signed,
bringing to a close the greatest need
for workers. Too late to turn back,
however, they proceeded' on to Japan,
thence to Bagdad, India, where they
spent two months doing relief work
in the camps of the refugees located
there.
Going on farther, the party came
to Tataran, Arabia, their original
destination, where Miss ^Phelps left
them and proceeded on to Turkey
where for a considerable time she
served as superintendent of an Ar-'
nianian Orphanage with 350 boys, all
under the age of twelve years, under
her care.
She is at present located in Ghazi-
Anatal, about four hundred miles
east of Constantinople, in one* of four
hospitals in which she is the only
American nurse.
Miss Phelps has had an opportunity
, to study and observe the changes
which are taking place in Turkish
life, and her address wilf be of interest to all, While it will be missionary is spirit, the speaker will give a
picture of the general conditions of
the newly awakened Turkey.

gratifying post-condition of robustness of constitution..

ANNOUNCEMENT!
The Merchants Mercantile Agency
Inc., of Washington, D. C, are installing a Credit Rating Service for
Isabella ancl Clare Counties.
If you owe any past clue accounts,
pay them, do it now, so you will be,
well rated. This company keeps tlie
merchants and professional men informed at all times as to just how you
pay your bills.
H. A. Schleicher and R. A. Mallory
have for the past ten weeks been installing this service.
This system is built on constructive lines. It makes the poor but.
honest man's credit as good as that
of the rich. It also prevents the man
who does not pay his bills from getting credit.
If you have a good credit record,
your trade is valuable and 'any mer:
chant or professional man is glad to
accommodate you.
Credit Is a Matter of Trust. Your
Honor Is Involved
It is granted you on a promise to
pay, and you cannot afford to break
that promise. The merchant can better afford to lose the bill than you
can afford not to pay it.
Don't blame the merchant if you
are refused credit.
Credit Is a Certificate of Character.
Safeguard It

Of most importance during tiif
week was the. passage by the House
Of the budget bills making- appropriations for th'e "oomiiig two years;
Strenuous efforts of Rep. Chas. De-
Land and.others to reduce the total
of the appropriations were unavailing,
the body of the House standing by
the report and the recommendations
pf the ways arid means committee of
the House. Several amendments
were voted down ancl on its final passage Only twelve members voted
against the bill, these being Calvert,
'Goodwine, MacRae, Culver, DeLand,
MacDonald, Holbeck, Ate Dykstra,
Holland, Nichols and Gillet. The bill
carries $28,334,896 for 1930 and ?2Z,
S87.144 for 1931. The sum of $16,-
392,196 is to be- raised by general
taxation in 1930 and $15,934,444 in
1931, the balance coming from other
sources such as licenses funds and
fees. This will make the state tax
rate slightly higher than for the past
two years, but there is also an increase in the assessment value of the
state, which will help keep the rate

In a good home we find good reading, recreational, life, and religious influence. One of the first requirements of a home-maker is an understanding of the care of health. Right food helps to make cheerful companionship and wise spending gives a feeling of security in the home.
