FARMERS'INSTITUTE
Is'Told of Agriculture in the
Schools.
LOST MOTION
Was   Discussed   by   Conductor
Taylor.
Mrs. C. M. Jones was on the program for a solo but she being absent
Conductor Taylor by request repeated the "Ninety and Nine" and
was heartily applauaed.
Conini'r Aldrich paid a tribute to
President Kennedy for tbe enthusiasm and zeal with whicb he had labored to make tbe institutes a success. The demand for the recognition of agriculture in the schools has
become so strong that an outline has
been placed in the course of study
and teachers are expected to carry
out tbe p!an. It is not so much expected that pupils will receive a large
amount of formal instruction as tbat
they they shall become more interested in farm life and thus be more
likely to remain upon the farm. He
outlined the plan of the course, what
was expected of accomplishment in
the several grades. Greater interest
is aroused in farm life and much
practical knowledge given about
plants, fruits, farm animals, etc.
Teachers are endeavoring to faithfully carry out the plan and it is
bearing fruit already. It is sure to
create a g eater interest in rural life
and give papiis no little practical
knowledge.
A quartette consisting of Misses
Van Fleet, Beadle, Cudney and
Black entertained tbe audience and
responded to an encore and then
Conductor Taylor proceeded to discuss "Lost Motion," or in other
words, waste. He quoted Gov. Eber-
bard of Minnesota as saying that the
American peopie are always changing their minds. Generally tbia
means that they are improving. He
noted the great waste many farmers
sustain in not caring for farm machinery. Expensive machines are
left out to rust, perhaps during the
entire winter. Every county wastes
hundreds of dollars each year in tbis
way. Farmers are losing by keeping
cows that do not pay for the feed
they consume. Tbis is all useless
and the cow testing association are
helping to correct tbis state of affairs. Every farmer can know and
should know, just what each cow ia
doing. We are losing motion in having much poor legislation. There
should be more farmers in the legislature wbo are leaders and can direct legislation. We are losing much
from a lack of organization. We
need a more intelligent vision cf life.
Much nas been lost in school work
in tbe past, but we are learning to
take up the lost notion and thus
have time for new things. We are
learning to spend more time in developing the good than in warning
against the bad. We are losing motion in religions affairs by unduly
multiplying church buildings and
church organizations. Near his
home is a Norwegian Lutheran church
which he and bis family attend.
They are not members bat work with
this church as it already ocenpies
the field and be would deem it a
waste of energy and money to attempt to establish another. We
should gat above narrowness and
prejudice.
There is lost motion in the home.
Sometimes the farm is mortgaged to
build a house better than the neighbors have. Tbe home is for ourselves and children. Othere may
misunderstand us, but the folks at
home will not. If we bnild tbe
home to make it oest for tbeinmates,
ail will be well, no matter bow humble It may ho.
Catherine Beaton McKinley.
Catherine Beaton McKinley waa
born in Mull, Scotland, 8ept. 12, 1830,
being In the 86th year of her age at
tbe time of her death, which occurred February 16. 1915.
In I860 she came to Toronto, Canada, where she married James McKinley, who waB also from Scotland.
Tnaj- resided in Canada for soma
years, later comiug to Macomb
count}, Mich. At this time vaet
tracts of land in Clare county were
being sold"; and witshing to obtain a
homo for themselves and family,
they came into the ilds of Clare
county when Clare had but three or
four buildings; and, following a
blaze on the tree* which were tie
only roads of that time, they settled
in an oid lumber camp on the banks
of the Tobacco River very near to
the location of tbe present homestead.
The only neighbor was nearly a
mile away, the privations many, the
advantages few; but Mrs. McKinley
proved herself superior to all these
obstacles. Her home waa always
filled with love and sympathy, and
many a lonely neighbor would come
to spend the day witb her, going
away witb fresh courage to meet the
difficulties of a pioneer life. She was
converted wben a young woman and
joined tbe Free Church of Scotland.
Sbe kept tbe faith and influenced for
good all who came in contact witb
her. Children rise up tc call her
blessed.
To the union were born nine children, three of whom with the father
have gone on bpfore. Today four
sons and two daughters mourn tbe
loss of a devoted mother, Archie, of
Grand Rapids; Danish of Traverse
City; James, Allen, Maggie and Mrs.
W. N. Younglove, of Clare.
The funeral services were conducted by Rev. W.J. Coates and W.
N. Younglove and tbe body laid to
rest in Cherry Grove cemetery, beside that of her busoand there to
await the resurrection. X.

Question     Debated    B y
School.
Tbe "team" from Mt. Pleasant,
consisting of Prof. Cobb of tbe Agricultural Department of the Central
Normal and several yo.i-<g men from
the 6ame institution, held several
services in this city on Saturday and
Sunday. We think tli« general verdict will be that th' ir message was
satisfactory and »har »i-.p.y aocom-
plisned good. The> w.-ie young men
ot pleasing pe-rsonaliry and certainly
seem In earnest in the work they undertake. We wish lh<-y might bave
been able to meet a larger number of
the boys of the city.
Meetings were held at Basket Sail
Hall on Saturday afternoon and evening and at the M E. church Sunday
afternoon, in addition to the service
at the usual   hour   Sunday   morning.
Of course we are aware that opinions will differ, as they ever have
and doubtless always will, as to the
best methods of dealing with the
young. People cannot ail see things
a'ike. We think, however, that
more and more people are coming to
recognize the fact tbat children cannot be suddenly transformed into
men and women; that sports, proper
amusements, are among the legitimate demands of the young life, and
that it is up to society to recognize
this fact and provide those of the
proper kinds.

The Senior Class wrestled with the
electric light proposition one evening last week and doubtless a flood
of light was shed on the question
though we did not have tbe pleasure
of hearing tbe eloquent pleas pro and

its own lighting plant." The judges
gave the decision to the negative by
a score of 10 to 7.

HAS RIGHT TO CLAIM.
Girls Basket Ball Team  Claims
Championship.
Since the girls' team of. the local
High School was beaten by Owosso
two weeks ago, affairs have taken a
different turn, and it now looks as
though we were rightfully entitled to
claim the championship of central
Michigan.
Last Friday night the girla went to
Chesaning where they won by a
rather narrow margin of 11 to 8.
Miss Man&eli,  principal,   informs   us
Mrs. Mary  B. Minar.
Mary Barto was born in Burlington
Vt , Dec  3, 1S3S.     Coming to Michigan witb her parents in   ber   youth,
she was nnited in   marriage  to  Geo.
S. Minar   of  Kalamazoo   Nov    14ih,
1868.    To  this  nnion  eight   children
were born.    She died at  the borne of
her   daughter,    Mrs.   Ettie   Mowl   of
I Farw.-ll,   Feb.   6,    1915,   she     having

that she has asked Owosso for   a   re- | great-grandchildren,    and   numerous j

j the fact that Chesaning had already

I desides to play   us   another   game,   a
battle royal may be expected for   the
honors.
Tbe boys' team also engaged   Reed
City a week ago, winning by a  score j Brief Chapters Giving Glimpses
of 27 to 25.    They are very enthusiastic   about   the   fine   treatment    they
received while there.
On the same date the second   team
played at  Marion,   but   were   not   so
fortunate   being   pitted   against    the

with only a moderate attendance whicb
was gradually increased. After prayer
by Rev. McDonald, Mr. Taylor took
ap tbe subject of "Profitable Pork
Production." He does not believe
pork can be profitably produced on
dry feed alone. Grain is too expensive to warrant that. It takes 10
pounds of oorn to produce one ponnd
of pork. Many are raising hogs at
an actual loss. The first consideration ia the bread. There are several
breeds that arS about equal, any of
then being good. It would be wall
for a man to select the one that
suits his fancy. Tbe grade female

Tbe reporter dropped into the City
Mills on Saturday and found everybody on the jump to attend to the
conetantly increasing number of customers. Tbe repairs for which tbe
mills had been obliged to shut down
temporarily were installed and everything was huii.ming. Inside, and on
the platform outside, were piles of
bags containing feed to be ground
and teams were constantly coming
with more. Corn, ground cob and
all or shelled aud grain ground alone
as you please. It seems a cold day
when there are not customers from
beyond Coleman   and like distances.
Tbe various orands of flour the
mills are turning out seem to be
meeting with a very favorable reception, while tbe trade in graham, corn
meal and buckwheat is constantly increasing. Feeds of various kinds,
including cotton seed and linseed
meals, are kept in stock.
Tbe mills are a mighty good thing
for tbe city and we are glad to note
their increasing business and prosperity.

The Northwest Territory.
How did we get the state in which
we live? Previous to the year 1700,
the country wes.t of the Ohio river
belonged tc the French by right of
discovery, and most of those lands
lying east of said river belonged to
England by the same right, but between those lay a vast wHderness
which came to be knowij aftein-aj
as the Northwest Territory which
was e'j-imed by both French and
English. The French possessions
were put up and battled for on the
p)ains of Abraham in the year 1760
and the British became the victors
and the French relinquished their
claim to the Northwest Territory.
The territory was then a part of Canada and a colonial possession of England, but no attempt was made to
subdue or inhabit it for half a century. As already stated, it was a
vast wilderness. The only attempts
made to inhabit it were now and then
a stockade fort and here and there
the hut of a hunter or a trapper in
some place that was hid from the
view of the Indians.
The British had more than their
hands full to keep the Indians in any-
kind of control, for the French had
through their priests gained great
influence over these red skins and
bad made them believe that the
Great Spirit would love them more
and bless them just in proportion
to the number of British scalps they
took; so nothing was done with tbis
wilderness till after tbe war of the
Revolution. Then serious questions
arose which took many years to settle. First, these wild lands belonged
to the United States, but different
States had established claims on
portions of the territory, either by
purchase of the Indians, by schemes
of colonization or by fraudulent pretext. The states, many of them,
had settled larg'e colonies within
their limits and it was all important
that before the lands could be made
into peaceful and happy homes these
claims must be met and forever settled. So congress took the matter
up and asked that the different
states relinquish their claims in favor
of the federal government and let
those lands become part of the public domain. The question then had
to be taken before the legislatures
of tbe different states, there to be
fought out. It took several yeara,
bnt finally all the IS states gave up
their claims to the government.
Then the wilderness was not surveyed and tbe wolves were hostile to
to surveyors. When possession was
yielded to the United States in 1796,
the British garrisons at Detroit and
Micbilimackinac were replaced by
detachments by General Wayne, and
Michigan became a part of tbe
Northwest Territory.

Tbe City of Harrison owns its own

has the Lighting Co. to offer any
manufacturers in tbe way of current?
Now is the   accepted   time, is it not?
We note that the Courier inainua-
1 tea in last week's issue that the Citizens' Committee seemed to be boiled
down to one. Tbe Courier must
have forgotten tho petition eigned by
221 citizens and taxpayers whose
signatures were obtained in less than
24 hours. The only one wbo has
asked to have his name withdrawn
from said petition to date is a Courier representative. What right has
any official to take original contracts
and records from the office of the
city clerk? A j far as Mr. Jones is
concerned, we would be glad to see
nis business expand ao as to require
all the electric energy that the Callam dam can produce. The city of
Clare would be willing not only to
furnish power required but give him
a handsome bonus besides. The
Courier intimates that there are delinquent taxes against the land upon
wbich the Callam dam is situated.
Even should this prove true, "I,"
"me" or ai^y other member of the
Citizens' Committee would gladly
own a tax title against said property.
Why should tbe Courier worry? We
wish to inform the Courier that
we bave discovered gravel beds upon
said land containing thousands upon
thousands of the finest gravel for
roadbuilding and concrete work,
etc. Where would the citizens of
Clare secure their ice should access
to Dewey Lake be denied tbem?

A Sad Spectacle.
On Saturday   evening  we   saw  on
Fourth   St.   a  boy,    apparently    not
more than 17 years  of   age,   and   yet
beastly   drunk,    so    drunk   tbat    he
staggered   back    and   forth    over  a
space   of   a   dozen   feet  in   width   at
least.    We are   naturally   wondering
if tbis boy's father  voted   to   restore
tbe   saloons   here   in   order  tbat  he
jmigbt      en-joy     "personal    lib-
; erty" himself.    Who   shall   say   that
I this would not be   a   just   retribution
! for any man who will thus  set   traps
for the boys?     Our   heart   aches   for
this boy's mother, whoever she  may
be.
We are told tbat women do not
need the ballot. Tbeir husbands,
fathers and brothers represent them
at the polls. Is the' mother represented by ber husband wben be
votes tor saloons to curse  her boys?
The Other Side.
Clare, Feb. 24, 1915.
Editor Sentinel:
I was both surprised and amused
to read in laat week's issue the Mt.
Vernon Grange correspondent's
versions of that debate. One is
given to understand that the Hobson
Arbor team was beaten to a frazzle.
The troth is there was not enough
left of the Grange team to make a
respectable grease spot. It is characteristic of a good sport, to take his
medicine cheerfully when beaten and
net resort to bluff.
Talk about our needing another
man. Great Soot I We could have
left another at home and then have
won "hands down."
Respoc fully,
Arthur Badgley.
