To Our Subscribers.
we have visited that I tnink
ofJ interest to you. Tbe foreigner
Doming to thia country will wonder
at the gre. t number cf walls he sees
on every hand. Nearly all tbe cities
of any considerable size are walled
around, and as you go inside you find
walla within walls. In my former
letter I told you about the walls
aronnd Peking but as one goee about
within the city be geta tbe impression
that a large portion of tbe ground i«
occupied with walla. Going down
the narrow "Hotuoge" you aee nothing but gray brick walla on either
eide with gatee along at Intervals
made or thick boards or planks. Aa
yon enter theee gatee to tbe private
recldenoe within, yon immediately
•osae in contact with • wall and have
bo turn to the right or left and enter
a doorway and make another turn,
and pass between walls then yon
come to a small open court, with
rooms all around then through another passage way to a larger court
with rooms and walls around it.
Tou may continoe on through other
courts and passage ways till yon
finally reach tbe private residence of
tbe people you desire to visit
Chinese bouses are all built one story
with very thick walls and face to tne
south or the sunny side as tar as
possible. The more wealthy Cninese
and conrt officials have tbe entrance
to their homes far more intricate and
difficult to gain entrance to. They
usually have solid walls around tne
whole collection of buildings and
grounds.
There are wails around al! of the
mission compounds school grounds,
officials homes, and government
buildings of ail cUss*-s. The various
foreign governments have very substantial walls around the different
legation quarters, I have frequently
asked the question, Why all these
walls? The answer is. to keep out
the curious Chioese. This may De
the case at the present time, but the
need of them originally was to keep
out an enemy and this is why no
doubt so many of them were built all
ever this countrv. Centuries ago before tbe discovery of gun powder,
they were a very effective means of
defence against an enemy.
I think nearly all of us, in our
school days will remember of reading,
•r ot being told about the. seven
wonders of the world and one of thetn
waa the Oreat Wall of China. So
yon may be sere we were very
anxious to see with our own eyes

A   Wedding  That   Will   Interest
Many Clare People.
Los Angeles, Dec. 28, '16.
Dear Mr. Andrus: —
A very pleasant wedding oc-
cured last evening (Wednesday)
which will be of interest to man;
Clare people when Mr. Leo De-
Forrest Vandelinder was united in
marriage to Mrs. Edith Pierce, of
this city, at the borne of his parents,
Mr and Mrs. Wm. Vandelinder, 619
East 38th St., Rev. A. Stokesbsrry
performing the ceremony.
Promptly at eeven o'clock little
Miss Mildred Welch began playing
Mendelssohn's Wedding March and
the bride and groom, attended by the
groom's sister. Miss Eva, and Mr.
Paul Daupbine, entered the parlors
and, standing under a bower of
Sowers and greenery they were
united in wedlock.
The bride was prettily gowned in
white and carried a abower bouqnet
of Chinese lilies and smilaz, while
the  bridesmaid   was   very   charming
we passed Ching Hua, the seat of the
Government Indemnity College which
I hope to write about more particularly in a future letter. As we approached the station at the entrance
of Nankou Pass, tbe mountains began
to close in around us on every side.
Nankou Pass is the main and only
pass through the mountains to tbe
north, for a long distance either way
east or west Flere a very powerful
engine with sixteen driver wheels
was put into the rear oi our train to
push us up the steep grade. The
scenery through  tbe   mountains   was
grand, with the mountains broken ! Among the many who renewed
op into innumerable crests and | their subscriptions during the last
mounds, which, in the bright October ! few dRy8 or the old year   was  August
San Diego, followed to the depot by
several auto loads of friends and
merry makers who were well provided with horns and bells.
The groom is a grandson of Mr.
and Mrs. Wm. Badgley of Herrick
and has a lucrative position here
with the Salt Lake R. R.
Upon their return they will reside
with the groom's parents during the
winter.

Law Enforcement Given Cordial
Support By Board.
The board of supervisors held a
short session last week, doing al! tbe
work in two days. Besides approving the bonds of county officers and
auditing biiis in tbe hands of tbe
clerk, two or three mattera of more
than paaslng Interest came before
tbe board. The one probably
that win be of most interest and
we believe excite moat favorable
comcieut waa tne emphatic Hendorae-
ment of local option law enforcement
and the authorization of financial assistance, if necessary, to enable tbe
prosecuting attorney and sherriff to
put a stop to violations of this law.
In oar opinion four-fifths of such
violations will cease automatically
when it is understood that our
officers mean business and intend to
do something.
Tbe following resolution was presented by Supt. Gilmore of Freeman
and passed with only three dissenting votes: "Resolved, that the
board of supervisors instruct the
proaecatlng attorney and sheriff to
collect evidence for tbe purpose of
prosecuting will fa! violations
of tbe local option law ln Clare county
and, if necessary, to procure tbe
aervicea of outside talent; and that
tbey be allowed to use not to exceed
1150 a year, the bllla tor same to
be presented to this board certified
by prosecuting attorney and sheriff.
Tbe county treasurer was authorised to borrow not to exceed 812,000
at a rate of Interest cot to exceed 7
percent, the same to be payable in
January and March, 1918.
An appropriation of $150 was made
for use on the highway between
sections 7 and 18 in Lincoln township.
At   the   last meeting   of   the   year
1916,  local Masons   held   tbeir installation  ceremonies, tbe newJy elected }
and appointed officers  taking charge
of officies at   once.    The   list follows:

To  profit   by  some   shady   trick  of

There's not much  credit   being  true
