Home to Welcome the
Telder Family
INFANT BABE CALLED
TO ETERNAL HOME
The infant child, David Nelson,
born to Mr, ancl Mrs. Mortimer Irish
last week Thursday morning, was
spared hut three days, entering into
its eternal Home Sunday morning.
He was the only child that had blessed this -union.
Rev. A. D, Telder officiated at the
services held Monday morning from
the home in First Ward, and the little form was laid to rest in Cherry
Grove cemetery.
Tires-day evening a very pleasing
event took place when the .home of
Mr. and Mrs. Dewey Paxton became
the gathering place for over seventy
.people who had gathered to extend a
welcome to Rev. and Mrs. A. D.
Telder and family, -who have come
to the First Baptist' church of this
city as pastor and co-workers iu the
community.
The arrangements for the evening-
had been previously planned by ladies of the church society and a
^varied; program was enjoyed. The.
gatliering joined voices in singing,
• "Higher Ground," and Rev. Telder
offered a petition to our Divine,
''master. Virginia Friz sang a solo,
"I Would be True" in her usual
dainty manner. Master Douglas
Paxton and Russell Telder sang a
duet and responded to an encore. A:
T. Loomis,"as deacon, welcomed the
pastor and family into our midst in
behalf of the church, and Miss Laura
Thompson, who is now -serving her
fifth year as superintendent of the
church school, welcomed the Telder
family into all activities in tliis department.
Appropriate readings were rendered by Mrs. C. C. Knapp, Mrs. Walter
Foell and Miss Bessie Johnson. The
pastor's daughters, Dorothy ancl Virginia' favored the gathering with a
duet, with their mother as their accompanist, and Alice and Virginia
Foell played a musical number on
the piano. ^
Rev. 'Telder spoke briefly and said
that he and his family had been
made to feel welcome to this church
and city before it was definitely decided that they would come and reside here. Their aim and purpose in
coming here was to preach and live,
the Bible in Clare and surrounding
community and to be of service at
all timet! in bringing Gospel messages whereever there is an oppor-
fenftVrSnr^c^ Mas
ter.      .
Miss Helen House gave a reading,
entitled, "Friendshipping" hy Dr.
Roy L. Smith, which was very appropriate for the closing number ol'
the splendid program, and again all
coined in singing, "Blest Be the Tie
That Binds."
The committee in dharge of the
refreshments served abundance of
food and all heartily enjoyed eating
and Chatting until the clock wended
slowly toward the time to retire.
Thole in charge of the occasion
feel: very grateful to Mr.- and Mrs.
Paxton who so graciously opened
their home for this event, ancl the
fellowship enjoyed by those who met,
including friends from Rosebush and
Mt. Pleasant, will linger with pleasant memories.

* thing in life. He said "No class nor

members are constantly staying ' out
on account of sickness. A class is
only as strong as its weakest member."

C. THAYER WELL
DRILLED IN LAST
FRIDAYJORNING
Production is Estimated to
Reach Between Fifty and
Seventy-five Barrels
The well, on the' Clarence Thayer
property, three and one-half miles
south of Clare was drilled in last
Friday morning about nine o'ciock
and judging from the flow in the afternoon it was thought to he an excellent strike. Since that time production has decreased considerably
and now is set at between fifty and
seventy-five barrels per day.
Drilling on the Lynch well five
miles south and one-half east of
Clare was discontinued last Friday
when oil filled the pipe to a heighth
of' 600 feet. Not sufficient gas is.
present to raise the fluid and it is
reported that the Dowell acid will be
put in Monday or Tuesday.
TO THE CITIZENS OF CLARE

fire is most hazardous; Let-us all

AUCTION SALE
BUTTER TAX HIGHER
THAN THAT ON OLEO
Michigan  Producers   of   Butter
Pay $2,268 in Taxes for Every
Dollar Paid by Oleo Mftrs.
Figures compiled by the farm
management and the dairy depart-,
ments of Michigan State College
show that oleomargarine will be taxed, under the new law on the November ballot, only one-fifth of the
amount per pound that is already
paid by farmers ancl manufacturers
upon each pound of butter made in
Michigan.
The College dairy department
points out that a home industry j
which pays three cents a pound in
taxes upon its product does not believe that a tax upon oleomargarine of
0.66 cents per pound, or less than a
cent a pound, can be called discrim-
atory taxation".
Farmers and manufacturers who
make the butter produced in Michigan paid a total of $2,268,000 dollars
in taxes last year. In 1931, the tax
on oleomargarine in Michigan resulted in the collection of less than
$1-000 from oleomargarine manufacturers. For every dollar paid by
oleomargarine butter paid $2,268 in
Michigan taxes.
Nearly one million cows are kept
on 1S0.000 Michigan farms. These
cows produce the cash income of a
majority of these farmers and from
this cash must be „substracted the
sums which pay bills such as taxes,
purchase of operating equipment, and
goods consumed in the home and on
the farm,
Oleomargarine! * contains a large
per cent of Vegetable fats which can
be imported from foreign lands    al
Gladwin High won undisputed -first
place in the Central Michigan "C"
conference by defeating our boys 36
to 0 Friday. It was a stinging blow
to the team and fans tc? see the Gladwin crew roll up three touchdowns
and an extra point during the- first
half.
Tlie scoring started almost immediately after the game opened, Clare
received the klck-flffi ancl after three
tries failed to make a first down punted to Gladwin. The first play was a
line plunge which; netted very little
but immediately after Sehultz, the,
Gladwin * fullback, started on an end
run and behind beautiful interference
raced nearly 50 yards to a_ touchdown. It was a lieart-breaker for
the Clare boys who never fully recovered until the second half. Another touchdown came before the]
first quarter ended as well as one ir<
the second period. .The score at half
time was 20 to 0.*iu.<*t~i>>--   '■'■■■
The second half was different however, although Clare could not score
they did play much better ball and
made more yardage. The also *kept
Gladwin from scoring until a pass
was intercepted ancl run back for a
touchdown.
The most excitement for the Clare
fans was in the fourth quarter when
Bob Doherty was put in at fullback.
This seemed to put pep into the team
and most of the play was In Gladwin
territory thereafter. The boys could
not score and so the game ended 26
to 0.
SchultZr was the easily the best
player on the field, not only being a
fast runner but a good-field general.
He was ably aided by the other
members of the team who blocked
and took men out of the play.
The Clare boys were noticeably
weak on defense, especially on end
runs. Many times the. ends were
taken out by a nice block which
could' liave been avoided. This allowed the ball carrier to advance for
many a good gain.
Bob Doherty will probably hold
down the fullback position with Blystone and Thayer at halves and A1-.
len at quarter. Stanley Sutton cracked a bone in his shoulder which will
keep him out of a couple bf games.
Today (Friday) the 'boys travel to
Reed City for their last game away
from home. Two weeks ago the
Indians were badly defeated by the
Reed City team and everything
points to a busy afternoon for the
Clare lads.
The authorities at the Clare school
wish to call attention to the change
of date of the Evart game from Friday, October 28 to Wednesday, October 26. The game will be played on
the high school field next week Wednesday starting at 3:30 o'clock. It is
believed that the hoys can take
Evart.
Members and friends of the St.
John's Lutheran church gave ' a
chicken dinner last Sunday noon In
honor of Mr. aad Mrs. Joseph Wichj-
man, who have been members of
their congregation many years, ancl
who were celebrating their golden
wedding anniversary.
The dining room was appropriately decorated for the occasion and
places were set for 125 guests,' arrangements were in charge of the
Ladies Aid society. The menu included an abundance of splendid food
and the table was decorated with a
large wedding cake made at the
Bayes bakery, each guest enjoying a
serving of same.
After everyone was served the
guests retired to the church auditorium where a sacred seryice was
rendered. The wedding march was
played by Miss Dorothy Binhammer
and the honored couple marched in
and took their places by the altar.
Rev, Leyrer, assistant pastor, conducted the service in which Mr. and
Mrs. Wichman renewed • theii' vows
taken a half century ago.
Gerhardt Binhammer sang a special number ancl a letter from their
pastor, Rev. Binhammer, who is a

AM. LEGION POST
INSTALLS OFFICERS
FOR ENSUING YEAR
Leslie P, Kefgen, Past State
, Commander Acts as Installing Offices.
On Monday night, October 17th, as
had been originally • planned, about
fifty ex-service men of the vicinity
of Clare, assembled at their hall for
the purpose of installing their newly
elected officers in the manner provided by their new ritual. •
Leslie P. Kefgen, Past State Commander of Michigan, was present as
installing officer and those present,
proclaimed the ceremony ideal- It
was an honor to have this American
Ace of the World War with us, as
his presence always radiates his superior qualities, the message he always brings is most interesting, and
the one incident he mentioned, of the
war days, was most thrilling.
This annual meeting was also
graced by the presence of our Honorable Mayor, John Wilson, our good
editor of the Clare Sentinel, Malcolm
Feighner, and our Spanish War
Veteran and buddy Sam Wilkinson,
and the fact that they were enthused over the event was evident in the
choice words of praise, spoken by
Mayor Wilson. The Post only regrets that other local Spanish and
Civil War veterans around here were
unable to attend.
The tables, decorated in the mosl
charming manner, and laden with a
surplus of good eatables, * together
with the manner in which it was
served was a credit to the Legion
Auxiliary, responsible for it.
Ed. Johnston, toastmaster for the
evening, introduced, in a manner
characteristic, only to one who has
attained skill thru former experiences on similar occasions, such
speaker as pre-arranged and how
noticeable it was, that no personal
reflections were injected by this able
speaker. Past Commander, Parent
and the newly elected Commander
Oden spoke of the necessity of the
cooperation of their buddies to warrant an active Post.
The program was concluded by N.
L. Tibbils, service officer, who dwelt
briefly on) the earlier vocations o
one or two of the Posts members ancl
recited a poem, written by that noble

County Officers Salaries Cut
About Twenty Per Gent;
War Open On Canines
The Clare County-Board of Super-:
visors expected to complete their
October session last evening, aftec
nine days of constant drilling and
pondering over the many issues
brought before  them at this  time.
Reginald Sharp "who was chosen
by the Board to act as chairman in
the June session, immediately appointed committees to carry out .the;
vast amount of work before them..
Last week's session took up much
debate as to officers salaries, road
questions ancl hearing of reports
from the various county departments.
The' county road commission was
openly discussed and brought much
to light as to the work accomplished,
and when the Fallot was cast for a
member of the Road Commission
Board, John Asline was returned to
his former position for a period of
six^years. •*
The enforcing of the clog tax law
was given severe censoring as many
complaints have been received by
the board as to dogs running at lai*ge
in the sheep raising communities of
the county. In fact many farmers
have suffered heavy losses' this past
season by dogs killing and mutiliat-
ing members of the flocks. This lias-
brought, considerable contention
upon the farmers who pay their dog
tax ancl find other animals running
at large. The sheriff's office reports
that about 1200 dogs are owned in
Mie county, according to reports from
the supervisors who make an annual
report, and at present about. 150 are
doomed for the happy hunting
grounds if their owners do not aliide
by the law. The Prosecuting Attorney and Sherih were instructed
to issue warning to each delinquent
dog taxpayer ancl if animal has been
misrated to notify 4;he officials at
once. It is apparent that this will
be a war on dogs.
The Board made a special effort to
mt corners in every way possible
>ut found that the welfare work of.
the county is becomii_K»an. issue into
"high figures. The road project north
if the city is a great aid to many and
J. H. Wilson and his committee have
endeavored "to spread the work as
evenly over the county as is possible.
The number being cared for at the
.County Infirmary is growing and it
is expected that the capacity of the
Home will be questioned before the
heart of the winter is upon us.
The county officers received a cut
of about twenty percent in their
salaries which have remained the
same since 1922. The report of this
committee was .not complete at noon
Thursday.
The entire proceedings of the
,Board will be published within several weeks.
POBUCJNVITED
The Mt. Vernon Grange will hold

Kleinhardt gathered at the U. B.
church in Harrison, Thursday evening, October 13, in honor of their
birthdays, Mr. Barlow..being 75 years

good old hymns  of Zion.
A bountiful pot luck4uhch, brought
by the ladies of course, was served in
the back rooms.
Space wxmld not permit us to
mention every thing that was on the
bill of fare, but We want to mention
the birthday cake made by Mrs. Ab-
ner Chase," and decorated by our city
baker, or his good wife, we were not
informed Which one did the lovely
work. But we want to thank them
all for the kindness and thoughtfull-
ness, which goes so far in making
life worth while. The""cake was both'
good to "the taste, ancl beautiful to
look at. Mr. Barlow had the honor
of lighting ■ the • candles, and the
Preacher blew them out. Leave it to
the ladies for wise heads. Of course,
they knew that Charlie was built to
do the more difficult part of it.
After lunch the birthday boys were
presented with some practical gifts,
as reminders'1 of the occasion. Rev.
Kleinhardt in behalf of Mr. Barlow'
and himself, thanked the people in a
few well chosen words, for it all, after which he offered prayer." So ended a happy evening. X
