CLARE GAS WELL
REMAINS PROPERTY

a
Control Head Placed on
Well and Owners to Con-
ti*nue Drilling To Prove
Field.
Equipment on Ground in Hatton Township for Third
Adventure,.
1
A control head was placed on the
"McKay-Mercier gas well last week
und the pressure gauge registered
more than four hundred and fifty
pounds, while there was no diminishing in the volume of gas.
There were persistent rumors to
the effect that the well had heen sold
to some gas or oil corporation, hut
when James McKay, one of the owners of the well, came tp Clare last
Saturday afternoon, ,he denied them
emphatically.
Mr. McKay saicl, they were in the
game to stay and expected to put
down other wells in search of either
gas or oil, and would not abandon the
.search until the field was well proven.
There have heen many visitors to
the well and Clare has been the mecca
for representatives of oil companies
since this "gas well came in. Several
deals are now in progress and other
locations "will no doubt be decided
upon in the very near future.
Equipment is being placed on the
ground for a well ten miles north of
(jtare on the west side of U. S. 27, and
the work of drilling is still in progress
at the Lost Lake well.

This cabin will be erected some

CAPLE RESIDENCE
DESTROYED BY
FIRE MONDAY
Department Answers Two
Summons in Past
Week.
A loss conservatively estimated at
$.3,000 was caused by fire at the residence of William H. Caple on north.
McEwan street, Monday afternoon,
the entire upper story of-the building
being destroyed and many of the
household effects being ruined by
water ancl smoke.
The fire was of unknown origin but
started in the attic and is presumed
to have come from a defective flue.
It was discovered ,by Leon Gleason ov
the Clare Ice Company who gave the
alarm.
Mrs, Caple and her five year old
daughter were ly^ing' down in one of
the upstairs bedrooms and did' not*
know of the fire until the siren sounded.
The department responded quickly
to the alarm ancl did splendid work in
fighting the flames in spite of the
high wind. The loss is covered by
insurance.
A, barn belonging to Al Herschal at
the rear of his residence on east
seventh street was destroyed by fire"
last Friday afternoon, and some of
the adjoining buildings were scorched
and chared by the flames. The fire
department is to be commended for
the excellent work they did in saving these buildings, and it seems little short of miracle that those which
were but a few feet away were not
destroyed.
ERROR IN LAW LIMITS
CAMPS TO ONE DEER
Conservation Director Hogarth
Will Attempt to Have
Ruling Changed
Pork and beef may pursue the deer
hunter into the north Avoods .this year
despite his appetite for the more
apropos venison.
Apparently someone made an error in drafting a revision of the game
laws for the 1929 legislature.
On the face of things it now appears that, regardless 'of the size of
a hunting camp, or the number of
members belonging thereto, there will
be only cue deer permitted for camp
use. **
Prior to the revision the law permitted the issuance of a camp license
to each party of "not less than six
members or more than six."
This was interpreted to mean that
parties of more than six could have
two camp deer and more than 12 hunters could have.three, etc.
In the revision last spring the "not
more than six" was dropped out of
the law, with the result that it now
states that a camp license can be
issued to parties of not less than four
members, leaving no provision for the
larger parties,
Conservation Director George R.
Hogarth, however, is of the opinion
that the legislature did not mean to
change the law in this respect and
will ask the attorney general if it will
be possible to interpret it so as to
permit the old system. Otherwise,
the larger camps, and the department
records show tliat they are numer?
ous, will eat at camp much tbe same
as they do at home after the first deer
is disposed of.

The comfortable home of Mr. and
Mrs. John Nelson was thrown open
Wednesday evening of last week
when the Guild of the Congregational
church with the^r husbands entertain-'
cd the teachers of Clare 3chooI at
their annual get-to-gether party.
' Mrs. Richard Bogan as President of
the Guild welcomed the teachers both
ild and hew to all our social gatherings aad~"R_Y, Johnson extended an invitation to all church ■; services . and
pledged the support of Jnembers to assist in any way possible* where the
community might be bettered.
The six new teachers Missgs Audrey Morgan, Margaret Alexander,
Marie Wagner, Grace Btegan, Beatrice
Secor and Mr. Henry' Baumgarten
were welcomed in thc| "How do you
do" song aiid the old teachers by the
verse- . \ '
Sure we'll love you" old "teachers
Forever and aye',
And fond memories we'll cherish
For many a day,
Of hours that we've spent hers
With friends old and nevr,
O, God bless you dear teachers
We'll always'love you. *
Mrs. Elva McAllister had charge of
all music and led in the commun'ty
singing. The men present were asked to sing ''Tramp, Tramp, Tramp"
and responded to an eneore "Sweet
Adeline." One of the most pleasing
numbers of the ."sing" was the solo
part carried by Miss Doris Gerow in
'"Love's Old Sweet Song."
After all had been introduced and
become acquainted, slips of paper
with names of famous men and
women were, pinned on the back of
the guests and they were obliged to
guess who they were aiid also find
their partner for the evening.
We were indeed fortunate to have
with u^ such characters as President
and Mrs. Hoover, portrayed by Geo.
White arid Miss Margaret Alexander,
Gov. and Mrs. Green who were Rev.
Johnson and Mrs. Holden, "Undy"
and "Anne" Mr. Baumgarten and Mrs.
Masten who were just as reticent as
the real ones, Babe Ruth in "the personage of A. "H. Wylte Who told, us all
about "Home Runs" and many many
others. Guests did not know that
"Norris Elden was of Scotch descent
until he began to sing "Roamin in the
Gloamin" and "Oh Its Nice to get up
in the morning when the sun begins
to shine."
At the close of the impromptu program the refreshment committee with
Mrs. Ada Hochstetler as chairman
served delicious refreshments.
Such an enjoyable evening had been
spent that the guests were loath to depart and asked Mr. Nelson to recite
one of his famous poems ahd demonstrate some of the new dance steps as
he was Mr. Zigfield of the "Follies".
He responded very graciously and called upon his wife, Miss Helen Mitchell
to demonstrate the steps with him.
Our Mary—Miss Louisa Rogers told
in verse how she was able to capture
Doug and Doug happened to be Mr.
Masten.
It is hoped" we will have more of
these informal get to gether parties
which cement the ties between teachers and parents.

St. Louis Here This Afternoon and Close Points
Are Expected,
Sacred . Heart Academy of Mt.
Pleasant was blanked by the Clare
high school football team at Ward's
field last Friday, the locals making
three touchdowns dW winning the
game by the score of 19 to 0.
The. visitors received the kicjtoff
but were unable to make a first down
arid Clare got the balj-oh the Sacred
Heart 40 yard line. Grover and Irwin
made good gains for a first down and
a pass from Grover to Stanley war
good for the first touchdown and
Irwin carried the ball over for the extra point.
' Clare made another first down during the "rest of the quarter but there
were exchanges of punts with the bail
on the Sacred Heart 30 y&rd line at
the end of the first period. A punt
to Clare's 14 yard line and a return
punt to tne Academy 40 yard line was
followed by a first down by the visitors. ,
Clare received the ball on downs
and following an exchange of punts,
Grover found a hole and went down
the field for 30 yards to midfield. Two
successive fii'st downs and a completed forward pass from Grover to F.
McConnell placed * the ball on the
Academy 9 yard line, and Irwin carried it over for a touchdown. An attempt to kick goal for the extra po'nt
failed to go between the posts.
In the second half, the visitors played an attack and it nettedthem three
first downs, but they neVer at any
time during the period threatened the
Clare goal. Clare's third touchdown
was made by Irwin on a forward pass
from Grover.
The locals looked much .better in
this game than they did at Beaverton
and some good runs were made by
the backfield men, Grover going tor
30 yards just as the game ended. A
good contest may be expected on the
local field today when the Alldread*
men meet St. Louis high.

BINEW LAW
Only. Exception to Statute
is Where Producer Deals
with the Consumer
The commercial fishing industry
has doubled in value in Michigan in
the past six years. From an industry
that marked fish valued at ' ?1,673,-
(367.87 in -1923 an increase is noted
each yea^" iintil last year the value of
fish taken from Michigan waters for
commercial purposes has a total
value of $3,397,428,88.
These figures, compiled by the fish
division of the department of conservation show a steady growth in the
value of the industry for each of the
six years from which totals were
taken. The figures show that in 1928,
-for which a summary has just been j
completed, 21,367.934 pounds of fish
were taken from the four Great Lakes
bordering the state and from Saginaw
Bay where commercial fishing is permitted, x
While there was little or no in->]
creaso in the number of pounds of
fish jcaught, the rising value of fish is
cred* ted with' the greatly increased
value of the industry. Whitefish was
the only species of commercial fish
that was caught in increasing quantities last year. In 1927' commercial
fishermen disposed of 4,1S0,751
pounds of whitefish. Last year that
number reached 4,652,187 pounds.
Lake Trout and Whitefish continue
to lead by .a wide margin all other
specios in the commercial fishing industry. Lake Trout was slightly in
the lead with 6,702,174 pounds caught
with a total value to the industry of
$1,425,543.50. Lake Trout brought an
income to fishermen of ?1,064,651,36
in 1927.
Lake Michigan, which has produced
more commercial fish than any other
one body of water bordering the state
in 1927 continued in the lead last
year; but with Lake Huron creeping
near in the final figures.
Figures' idiow the total numbgr of
pounds ol commercial fish caught in
1928 divided as* follows; Erie 746,-
966; Huron 6,757,687; Michigan 6,941,-
525; Saginaw "Bay 3,195,541; Superior
3,636,215. Lake Superior fishermen
enjoyed an increase from 3,42C,729
lbs. caught in 1927. /

A new Michigan^ law of particular
interest to the farmer, the retailer
and the consumer is that covering
the sale of potatoes.
Under the new law all potatoes for
table use must be graded, unless sold
by the producer direct to " the consumer. There are three grades of
table stock potatoes. U. S. Fancy
Grade, U. S. No. 1 Grade and U. S,
No. 2 Grade.
Potatoes must be'graded and stamp!_
ed on the premises where prepared
for markets. This means that- the
grower, in selling potatoes to the retailer, or- to any person who will offer
them for re-sale, must grade them and
stamp each container according, to
grades as noted above. Only in cases
where the producer sells direct to* the
consumer is he relieved of this necessity.
The grocer or retailer, on the 'other hand, cannot empty potatoes from
sacks, properly marked into bins or
other receptacles or" mix them with
other potatoes. The retailer need
not, h'owever, mark individual packages when making sales to customers
out of sacks or containers properly
marked, provided the sack of container is in plain view of the customer.
If the dealer buys his. potatoes
in bulk, the market, tag'must be attached to the wagon box or' truck of
the farnier. After unloading and
when the vehicle" is. no longer • in
evidence, the dealer must tag the
packages' he sells at -retail.
If the dealer weighs up packages
of potatoes during the quiet hours ol'
tho day, so as to- be prepared for rush
trade later in the day, the purchaser
not being present, each container
must bo properly tagged.
The above rulings were made by.
the Michigan Department of Agriculture followed an opinion handed down
by Attorney General Wilbur M.
Brucker, iu which Mr. Brucker defined the various provisions of the law.

Equipment on Ground in Hatton Township for Third Adventure,. 1 A control head was placed on the "McKay-Mercier gas well last week und the pressure gauge registered more than four hundred and fifty pounds, while there was no diminishing in the volume of gas. There were persistent rumors to the effect that the well had heen sold to some gas or oil corporation, hut when James McKay, one of the owners of the well, came tp Clare last Saturday afternoon, ,he denied them emphatically. Mr. McKay saicl, they were in the game to stay and expected to put down other wells in search of either gas or oil, and would not abandon the .search until the field was well proven. There have heen many visitors to the well and Clare has been the mecca for representatives of oil companies since this "gas well came in. Several deals are now in progress and other locations "will no doubt be decided upon in the very near future. Equipment is being placed on the ground for a well ten miles north of (jtare on the west side of U. S. 27, and the work of drilling is still in progress at the Lost Lake well. ... f \ MWLY ELECTED OFFICER PRESIDES AT POST MEET Buddies Plan to Erect Cabin as Memorial and Meeting Place The Walter H.

Althought no definite action has been taken ou the project, it is generally understood tliat the work will begin on the post cabin as Soon as there is $1,000 in the treasury. This cabin will be erected some where in the v:cinity of Clare, and will be a memorial for the buddies who gave their lives during the great conflict, and will be used as a meeting place for the Legion.

Holbrook's Bazaar, .rrradr.- Josephine Campbell was born August 6, 1848 in Wayne county N. Y. and departed" this life October 6th, 1929 at the home in Farwell. • When a small child she came with her parents to Washtenaw county, Michigan and in 1871 was united . in marriage to Robert Rainey who preceded her In death.

A loss conservatively estimated at $.3,000 was caused by fire at the residence of William H. Caple on north. McEwan street, Monday afternoon, the entire upper story of-the building being destroyed and many of the household effects being ruined by water ancl smoke. The fire was of unknown origin but started in the attic and is presumed to have come from a defective flue. It was discovered ,by Leon Gleason ov the Clare Ice Company who gave the alarm. Mrs, Caple and her five year old daughter were ly^ing' down in one of the upstairs bedrooms and did' not* know of the fire until the siren sounded. The department responded quickly to the alarm ancl did splendid work in fighting the flames in spite of the high wind. The loss is covered by insurance. A, barn belonging to Al Herschal at the rear of his residence on east seventh street was destroyed by fire" last Friday afternoon, and some of the adjoining buildings were scorched and chared by the flames. The fire department is to be commended for the excellent work they did in saving these buildings, and it seems little short of miracle that those which were but a few feet away were not destroyed. ERROR IN LAW LIMITS CAMPS TO ONE DEER Conservation Director Hogarth Will Attempt to Have Ruling Changed Pork and beef may pursue the deer hunter into the north Avoods .this year despite his appetite for the more apropos venison. Apparently someone made an error in drafting a revision of the game laws for the 1929 legislature. On the face of things it now appears that, regardless 'of the size of a hunting camp, or the number of members belonging thereto, there will be only cue deer permitted for camp use. ** Prior to the revision the law permitted the issuance of a camp license to each party of "not less than six members or more than six." This was interpreted to mean that parties of more than six could have two camp deer and more than 12 hunters could have.three, etc. In the revision last spring the "not more than six" was dropped out of the law, with the result that it now states that a camp license can be issued to parties of not less than four members, leaving no provision for the larger parties, Conservation Director George R. Hogarth, however, is of the opinion that the legislature did not mean to change the law in this respect and will ask the attorney general if it will be possible to interpret it so as to permit the old system. Otherwise, the larger camps, and the department records show tliat they are numer? ous, will eat at camp much tbe same as they do at home after the first deer is disposed of. TEACHERS ENTERTAINED 6Y GUILD WEDNESDAY AT THE NELSON HOME Social Evening Spent Welcoming Old and New Member of Faculty to Their Midst "SEEKING THE GOLDEN KEYS" The above beautiful service will be given next Sunday morning at the local Methodist church, at ten o'clock.

' ' ' ! - James O'Connor. The comfortable home of Mr. and Mrs. John Nelson was thrown open Wednesday evening of last week when the Guild of the Congregational church with the^r husbands entertain-' cd the teachers of Clare 3chooI at their annual get-to-gether party. ' Mrs. Richard Bogan as President of the Guild welcomed the teachers both ild and hew to all our social gatherings aad~"R_Y, Johnson extended an invitation to all church ■; services . and pledged the support of Jnembers to assist in any way possible* where the community might be bettered. The six new teachers Missgs Audrey Morgan, Margaret Alexander, Marie Wagner, Grace Btegan, Beatrice Secor and Mr. Henry' Baumgarten were welcomed in thc "How do you do" song aiid the old teachers by the verse- . \ ' Sure we'll love you" old "teachers Forever and aye', And fond memories we'll cherish For many a day, Of hours that we've spent hers With friends old and nevr, O, God bless you dear teachers We'll always'love you. * Mrs. Elva McAllister had charge of all music and led in the commun'ty singing. The men present were asked to sing ''Tramp, Tramp, Tramp" and responded to an eneore "Sweet Adeline." One of the most pleasing numbers of the ."sing" was the solo part carried by Miss Doris Gerow in '"Love's Old Sweet Song." After all had been introduced and become acquainted, slips of paper with names of famous men and women were, pinned on the back of the guests and they were obliged to guess who they were aiid also find their partner for the evening. We were indeed fortunate to have with u^ such characters as President and Mrs. Hoover, portrayed by Geo. White arid Miss Margaret Alexander, Gov. and Mrs. Green who were Rev. Johnson and Mrs. Holden, "Undy" and "Anne" Mr. Baumgarten and Mrs. Masten who were just as reticent as the real ones, Babe Ruth in "the personage of A. "H. Wylte Who told, us all about "Home Runs" and many many others. Guests did not know that "Norris Elden was of Scotch descent until he began to sing "Roamin in the Gloamin" and "Oh Its Nice to get up in the morning when the sun begins to shine." At the close of the impromptu program the refreshment committee with Mrs. Ada Hochstetler as chairman served delicious refreshments. Such an enjoyable evening had been spent that the guests were loath to depart and asked Mr. Nelson to recite one of his famous poems ahd demonstrate some of the new dance steps as he was Mr. Zigfield of the "Follies". He responded very graciously and called upon his wife, Miss Helen Mitchell to demonstrate the steps with him. Our Mary—Miss Louisa Rogers told in verse how she was able to capture Doug and Doug happened to be Mr. Masten. It is hoped" we will have more of these informal get to gether parties which cement the ties between teachers and parents. ACADEMY HELD SC0RELESS-19 TO 0 ON LOCAL GRID DISS.

Pleasant was blanked by the Clare high school football team at Ward's field last Friday, the locals making three touchdowns dW winning the game by the score of 19 to 0. The. visitors received the kicjtoff but were unable to make a first down arid Clare got the balj-oh the Sacred Heart 40 yard line. Grover and Irwin made good gains for a first down and a pass from Grover to Stanley war good for the first touchdown and Irwin carried the ball over for the extra point. ' Clare made another first down during the "rest of the quarter but there were exchanges of punts with the bail on the Sacred Heart 30 y&rd line at the end of the first period. A punt to Clare's 14 yard line and a return punt to tne Academy 40 yard line was followed by a first down by the visitors. , Clare received the ball on downs and following an exchange of punts, Grover found a hole and went down the field for 30 yards to midfield. Two successive fii'st downs and a completed forward pass from Grover to F. McConnell placed * the ball on the Academy 9 yard line, and Irwin carried it over for a touchdown. An attempt to kick goal for the extra po'nt failed to go between the posts. In the second half, the visitors played an attack and it nettedthem three first downs, but they neVer at any time during the period threatened the Clare goal. Clare's third touchdown was made by Irwin on a forward pass from Grover. The locals looked much .better in this game than they did at Beaverton and some good runs were made by the backfield men, Grover going tor 30 yards just as the game ended.

Exception to Statute is Where Producer Deals with the Consumer The commercial fishing industry has doubled in value in Michigan in the past six years. From an industry that marked fish valued at ' ?1,673,- (367.87 in -1923 an increase is noted each yea^" iintil last year the value of fish taken from Michigan waters for commercial purposes has a total value of $3,397,428,88. These figures, compiled by the fish division of the department of conservation show a steady growth in the value of the industry for each of the six years from which totals were taken. The figures show that in 1928, -for which a summary has just been j completed, 21,367.934 pounds of fish were taken from the four Great Lakes bordering the state and from Saginaw Bay where commercial fishing is permitted, x While there was little or no in->] creaso in the number of pounds of fish jcaught, the rising value of fish is cred* ted with' the greatly increased value of the industry. Whitefish was the only species of commercial fish that was caught in increasing quantities last year. In 1927' commercial fishermen disposed of 4,1S0,751 pounds of whitefish. Last year that number reached 4,652,187 pounds. Lake Trout and Whitefish continue to lead by .a wide margin all other specios in the commercial fishing industry. Lake Trout was slightly in the lead with 6,702,174 pounds caught with a total value to the industry of $1,425,543.50. Lake Trout brought an income to fishermen of ?1,064,651,36 in 1927. Lake Michigan, which has produced more commercial fish than any other one body of water bordering the state in 1927 continued in the lead last year; but with Lake Huron creeping near in the final figures. Figures' idiow the total numbgr of pounds ol commercial fish caught in 1928 divided as* follows; Erie 746,- 966; Huron 6,757,687; Michigan 6,941,- 525; Saginaw "Bay 3,195,541; Superior 3,636,215. Lake Superior fishermen enjoyed an increase from 3,42C,729 lbs. caught in 1927. / .The Ladies Union will hold a rummage sale in the McAllister building commencing* Saturday morning. Word - has* been received at The Sentinel ot the arrival of a baby girl at the home of ^tty. and Mrs. Chas. S*. Neithercut at _iiht, October 7th. A new Michigan^ law of particular interest to the farmer, the retailer and the consumer is that covering the sale of potatoes. Under the new law all potatoes for table use must be graded, unless sold by the producer direct to " the consumer. There are three grades of table stock potatoes. U. S. Fancy Grade, U. S. No. 1 Grade and U. S, No. 2 Grade. Potatoes must be'graded and stamp!_ ed on the premises where prepared for markets. This means that- the grower, in selling potatoes to the retailer, or- to any person who will offer them for re-sale, must grade them and stamp each container according, to grades as noted above. Only in cases where the producer sells direct to* the consumer is he relieved of this necessity. The grocer or retailer, on the 'other hand, cannot empty potatoes from sacks, properly marked into bins or other receptacles or" mix them with other potatoes. The retailer need not, h'owever, mark individual packages when making sales to customers out of sacks or containers properly marked, provided the sack of container is in plain view of the customer. If the dealer buys his. potatoes in bulk, the market, tag'must be attached to the wagon box or' truck of the farnier. After unloading and when the vehicle" is. no longer • in evidence, the dealer must tag the packages' he sells at -retail. If the dealer weighs up packages of potatoes during the quiet hours ol' tho day, so as to- be prepared for rush trade later in the day, the purchaser not being present, each container must bo properly tagged. The above rulings were made by. the Michigan Department of Agriculture followed an opinion handed down by Attorney General Wilbur M. Brucker, iu which Mr. Brucker defined the various provisions of the law.
