Houghton, Mich., May 20, 1933.
Dear Mother and Dad:
Gee I've been so busy the last week
with "tlie Electrical show I didn't get
a chance to write. I sure wish all of

it. I'll try and tell you a little Of
what it was like.
As you entered the door there
stood mechanical man ancl he would
.answer any questions you would ask
and as you passed him you broke a
beam of light and cut the circuit in-
his mechanism which in turn let his
arm fall that was attached to an outfit that counted the number of people
that passed in the show. They had
a hall way fixed into a mine drift and
a room where you could stand and
get X-rayed and see'all your bones.

For some time' conservation officers and Roscommon authorities

H. L. Holmes Sees Wide
Comparison Between City
and Rural Roads
Walcott, 30, of
Howard L. Holmes, of St.. Louis,
visited our office Monday afternooh
and voiced a protest about our jural
highways. He asked the question,
'Why is it that your city has such
.-splendid gravel roads and the trunk-
lines are a disgrace." U. S. 10 west
drives people away instead of indue-
ing'them to travel." Mr. Holmes
spends much time about the state and
prior to the machine age he has &
record of driving 75000* miles by
horses ovei' rural routes, or equal to
three times around the world.
He believed it would be possible
for local county authorities to get assistance from the state highway department to use the same equipment
as the city committee have at their
disposal, and bring the highway-!
back to where it is a pleasure to
motor instead of a hardship, both
physically and financially.-
Mr, Holmes congratulated the city
for its splendid streets both gravel
and pavement these by the way are
kept in trim by a Clare Road Leveler.
He also made comments upon the
modern improvements that our city
has to offer.
.The above statement is only one of
the many remarks heard from people
who spend many hours each wee"k
upon the public, highways and at thi'l
time when hundreds of tourists are
being directed 3ct Michigan's play

surely does not want to be a community that motorists will a Void.

Two Local People Have Th***ffing
Experience
A vivid description of the storm
was given Monday by Chas. Ford, of
this city, who with Bruce Pelch, of
Farwell, outrode the huge waves and
whirlpools in a row-boat and reached
the shore safely through, but almost
exhausted.
Messrs Ford and Pelch left Hougb>
ton village on a fishing crnwe u. uto
lake about 7:00 a. m. a tugboat towed their small craft to a point sis
and one-half miles from Houghton
and seven miles from Prudenville.
They had fished in this region until
abouti 2:30 o'clock when they first
noticed the storm's appro^chw Re*
mpmb-jHin? th-t the r"*"•--.•>ri of Uie
launch had told them that in case &
storm came up he would be out for '
them, they began looking- toward
Houghton for sighs of the launch,
but hardly had a minute passed when
they discovered water spouts twenty
feet high, raising in the air from the
other side of the lake.
"There was not time to loose,"
Charlie stated in describing their
thrilling experience. "We started to
row for shore and had made about
J100 yards when we hailed a passing
imotor boat for help. This was freely'
given ancl our anchor line was
| thrown into their boat ancl we started-
for shore,"
"We had not "gone but a short distance when the waves became furious and both boats were swept sideways to the waves. Our boat pulled
hard on the launch. The man holding the line made desperate attempts-
to right our boat to head the.waves,
which were now rolling twelve to
j fifteen feet high, until particles of
flesh were burned from his hands^
and he was forced to throw the anchor and line overboard. With the
anchor dragging our boat straightened itself to head the waves, but the

Holmes Sees Wide Comparison Between City and Rural Roads Walcott, 30, of Howard L. Holmes, of St.. Louis, visited our office Monday afternooh and voiced a protest about our jural highways. He asked the question, 'Why is it that your city has such .-splendid gravel roads and the trunk- lines are a disgrace." U. S. 10 west drives people away instead of indue- ing'them to travel." Mr. Holmes spends much time about the state and prior to the machine age he has & record of driving 75000* miles by horses ovei' rural routes, or equal to three times around the world. He believed it would be possible for local county authorities to get assistance from the state highway department to use the same equipment as the city committee have at their disposal, and bring the highway-! back to where it is a pleasure to motor instead of a hardship, both physically and financially.- Mr, Holmes congratulated the city for its splendid streets both gravel and pavement these by the way are kept in trim by a Clare Road Leveler. He also made comments upon the modern improvements that our city has to offer. .The above statement is only one of the many remarks heard from people who spend many hours each wee"k upon the public, highways and at thi'l time when hundreds of tourists are being directed 3ct Michigan's play grounds, Clare county, its gateway, surely does not want to be a community that motorists will a Void.

They had fished in this region until abouti 2:30 o'clock when they first noticed the storm's appro^chw Re* mpmb-jHin? th-t the r"*"•--.•>ri of Uie launch had told them that in case & storm came up he would be out for ' them, they began looking- toward Houghton for sighs of the launch, but hardly had a minute passed when they discovered water spouts twenty feet high, raising in the air from the other side of the lake. "There was not time to loose" Charlie stated in describing their thrilling experience. "We started to row for shore and had made about J100 yards when we hailed a passing imotor boat for help. This was freely' given ancl our anchor line was thrown into their boat ancl we started- for shore" "We had not "gone but a short distance when the waves became furious and both boats were swept sideways to the waves. Our boat pulled hard on the launch. The man holding the line made desperate attempts- to right our boat to head the.waves, which were now rolling twelve to j fifteen feet high, until particles of flesh were burned from his hands^ and he was forced to throw the anchor and line overboard.
