Washington,. January 2,—A. P,
Praising the inauguration of insuv-,
ance of bank'-deposits, Senator Van-
denberg, of Michigan, who was author of the plan,, said today in a statement it "provided safety for savings,
and removed "any remote excuse foi

and the Reconstruction Finance
'corporation had "done a superb piece
Of work" in inaugurating tho plan.

07'per cent of the nation's depositors

mass among . whom- "hysteria generates runs, upon the one hand, anc'j
among whom social tragedies occur
when bankc close, uppn the other

The Misses Maryland Frieda

many years a resident of- this city, in
which she writes of the excellent;
weather they are enjoying at this
time of year.
315 Rush St.
New Smyrna, Fla.
Dear Sentinel:
When we read last evening of the
intense cold over the country, we can
hardly realize what It nteans any
more, since living so many years in
Florida, "the Sun Parlor of the
World" as they say over the radio. It
is now 10:30 a. in., temperature 75
degrees in shade, no fires, aflff doors
all open. I am sitting on the porch
writing to "you all". How often I
think of so many of our good did
friends in Clare who would sure enjoy basking in this glorious sunshine
of our southland. Shall always hope
that some day they may have that
privilege. Just while I am writing,
the thought came to me that maylx)
when our good government gets
where it is possible, to send train-
loads of the old folks, who are unable to pay, down hero "on free transportation" and let them have one
winter at least to enjoy, God's great
gift, to his children, the blessed winter sunshine of Florida. And then
there would be so much of pleasure
to ponder over later, who knows but
this may all; come about in the not
far distant future. We all love dear
old Michigan, but Florida has been
v?-ry gracious to us. We have .'much
to be grateful for-all. Our Christmas
day was perfect. Every thing lovely."
We are all well. Our granddaughter1
Betty Jane left last Tuesday for a
week's Visit to the Magic City of the
.World—Miami. When,, we Were in
'Clare-last summer we spent only few
days. We may go next summer' if a.li'i$
well. We had a fine trip home. We
came home via the Carolina's as we
all love the mountains and the high
ways are perfect, all the way. One
can harly believe until they have
seen them. Kind regards to all.
Sincerely,
Mrs. E. A, White.

WILKIE HOME DESTROYED
BY FIRE LAST THURSDAY
The honfe of Mrs. W. J. Wipkie lind
son, .George located one mile westand
one north, of Clare, "was destroyed by
fire last week Thursday. ' As ..both
were' away the exact 4cc6uht ;of the
blaze cannot tie determined but the
interior was -practically; consumed before noticed by neighbors, Wfe un4
derstanti all wab a- total loss, no ih.-
giirance being carried;
While business men are taking
their January inventoi-ies, to see how
they are to prepare for 1934, the farm
families, of Clare County will be having another and most interesting inventory of their own plants, the farm
homes, through, the medium of the
rural housing survey to be conducted
by the Bureau of Home Economics to
Washington and the Home Extension
agents in the various State.
Here in Clare County the work
will be directly In charge of Margaret Doughty, working ..under the
direction of Miss Edna V. Smith,
State director of extension work, in
Michigan. 'The survey has been apf
proved as a Federal Civil Works Ad-
ministi-altion-prpject/ and »thev .field
work will be done by. women who
will be appointed from the re-employment rolls in the county. Employment is thus made available to those
who need it while valuable information is collected as to the present
adequacy of farm homes and the
needs and resources "for improvement.
"It is heartening for the men and
women in farm homes to see that
farmers are to be regarded again as
consumers and employers," says Mr.
Paul Gibson, County Agricultural
agent here, in speaking of ]the survey,
which expected to begin locally January 1, 1934. "They have wanted new
houses, or hew rooms or-porches or
repairs or furnaces or electricity.
For too many years ,they have hac}
to budget their crop returns with the
utmost care to provide for food and
clothing" and taxes and, interest, In
too many cases there hasn't been
enough income to pay 'for the -repairs
that every good housekeeper' and
every farmer know ar§ necessary.to
keep the property .from runtfing,
down, and there has been practically
nothing for new equipment.
"The community in general, I feel
sure, will be interested in the tabulations that will- be made after the field
survey. These will show farm house
condition and if they'have adequate,
equipment.
"Not every county will be surveyed, but in those selected all farm's
will be visited. Full information will
be obtained as to the condition of the
house and equipment, and the need
for repairs and' improvement.
"Just after Christmas is the time
when all women begin to think of
fixing up their homes. For that reason I am sure the women here who
cooperate with oui4 field agents in
every way. We .recognize of course
that this survey is only a foundation
for what may be' done in the future,
perhaps only after several'years have
passed. But even if farm people can'tj
see their way clear to making ..-any
improvements on their houses "this
year "Ve waut -their full cooperation
as We now make the- survey which'
will give the facts as a foundation for
future planning." ^
INFANT SON PASSES AWAY
AFTER BRIEF ILLNESS
The, Citizens State Bank or this .
city.';has Qualified as a member of the
iFederal- Deposit Insurance Corporation-, and started operating as such,
Tuesday morning, along ^vjfh over
13,000 other banks- throughout the
nation. .Times" S- Bicknejl," president,
and.the other directors pfthe hank
haYe always supported' legislation
that-would benefit the bank" or its "dV
positors.and are fully in acpord with ;
this recent provision' of congress/. :% ■'
The first tiling that every, depositor/"
wants to. know, is that his, money-in
the., bank is safe—at all times, and
under all conditions.
It was to provided such'-safety for-
bank deposifors that Congress, in the •
Banking Act of 1933,. created the "Fed:*
era! Insurance Corporation' — opera- •
tive 'under a temporary plan, .starting
January 1, 1934; and under -a'perma^
nent plan, dating-.from July 1,. 193,4.
Depositors of" - banks' which are
members of the. Temporary lnsur- -
ance Fund will have their net deposits fully insured to the amount of '
?2,500. It is- estimated this will give
complete protection to 96 per cent oi
the depositors in these hanks.
You do not need to be tpld that ,
this represents the most sweeping
fundamental change which Jias ever
taken place in banking,' as well as
the strongest pledge of individual security ever offered to bank 'depositors.
Your deposits in this bank*are' now- .
protected, as stated, by its membership in the Temporary Deposit lnsur- ,
ance Fund of the PDIC. You. thus
have a foundation for confidence .and1
future security, which has a measure
of the same soundness and stability;-'
that, is inherent in the United B'taiert.
Government itself.' ' '''"- " "v":
The bank oificiais have had fcnowl-* •
edge of this tor some time but have,
at the request of the Michigan Bankers Association, refrained from announcing it until after the formal announcement hy the Federal Government.

WHITE WRITES OF WINTER jNJMRIDA Contrasts Southern State With Michigan at This Time of Year MICHAEL MAYER, JR. FATALLY INJURED IN AUTO_ACCIDENT Deceased Established Clare Hatchery Here Eight Years Ago * The following letter was received this wsok from Mrs. E. A. White, for many years a resident of- this city, in which she writes of the excellent; weather they are enjoying at this time of year. 315 Rush St. New Smyrna, Fla. Dear Sentinel: When we read last evening of the intense cold over the country, we can hardly realize what It nteans any more, since living so many years in Florida, "the Sun Parlor of the World" as they say over the radio. It is now 10:30 a. in., temperature 75 degrees in shade, no fires, aflff doors all open. I am sitting on the porch writing to "you all". How often I think of so many of our good did friends in Clare who would sure enjoy basking in this glorious sunshine of our southland. Shall always hope that some day they may have that privilege. Just while I am writing, the thought came to me that maylx) when our good government gets where it is possible, to send train- loads of the old folks, who are unable to pay, down hero "on free transportation" and let them have one winter at least to enjoy, God's great gift, to his children, the blessed winter sunshine of Florida. And then there would be so much of pleasure to ponder over later, who knows but this may all; come about in the not far distant future. We all love dear old Michigan, but Florida has been v?-ry gracious to us. We have .'much to be grateful for-all. Our Christmas day was perfect. Every thing lovely." We are all well. Our granddaughter1 Betty Jane left last Tuesday for a week's Visit to the Magic City of the .World—Miami. When,, we Were in 'Clare-last summer we spent only few days. We may go next summer' if a.li'i$ well. We had a fine trip home. We came home via the Carolina's as we all love the mountains and the high ways are perfect, all the way. One can harly believe until they have seen them. Kind regards to all. Sincerely, Mrs. E. A, White.

J. Wipkie lind son, .George located one mile westand one north, of Clare, "was destroyed by fire last week Thursday. ' As ..both were' away the exact 4cc6uht ;of the blaze cannot tie determined but the interior was -practically; consumed before noticed by neighbors, Wfe un4 derstanti all wab a- total loss, no ih.- giirance being carried; While business men are taking their January inventoi-ies, to see how they are to prepare for 1934, the farm families, of Clare County will be having another and most interesting inventory of their own plants, the farm homes, through, the medium of the rural housing survey to be conducted by the Bureau of Home Economics to Washington and the Home Extension agents in the various State. Here in Clare County the work will be directly In charge of Margaret Doughty, working ..under the direction of Miss Edna V. Smith, State director of extension work, in Michigan. 'The survey has been apf proved as a Federal Civil Works Ad- ministi-altion-prpject/ and »thev .field work will be done by. women who will be appointed from the re-employment rolls in the county. Employment is thus made available to those who need it while valuable information is collected as to the present adequacy of farm homes and the needs and resources "for improvement. "It is heartening for the men and women in farm homes to see that farmers are to be regarded again as consumers and employers" says Mr. Paul Gibson, County Agricultural agent here, in speaking of ]the survey, which expected to begin locally January 1, 1934. "They have wanted new houses, or hew rooms or-porches or repairs or furnaces or electricity. For too many years ,they have hac} to budget their crop returns with the utmost care to provide for food and clothing" and taxes and, interest, In too many cases there hasn't been enough income to pay 'for the -repairs that every good housekeeper' and every farmer know ar§ necessary.to keep the property .from runtfing, down, and there has been practically nothing for new equipment. "The community in general, I feel sure, will be interested in the tabulations that will- be made after the field survey. These will show farm house condition and if they'have adequate, equipment. "Not every county will be surveyed, but in those selected all farm's will be visited. Full information will be obtained as to the condition of the house and equipment, and the need for repairs and' improvement. "Just after Christmas is the time when all women begin to think of fixing up their homes. For that reason I am sure the women here who cooperate with oui4 field agents in every way. We .recognize of course that this survey is only a foundation for what may be' done in the future, perhaps only after several'years have passed. But even if farm people can'tj see their way clear to making ..-any improvements on their houses "this year "Ve waut -their full cooperation as We now make the- survey which' will give the facts as a foundation for future planning." ^ INFANT SON PASSES AWAY AFTER BRIEF ILLNESS The, Citizens State Bank or this . city.';has Qualified as a member of the iFederal- Deposit Insurance Corporation-, and started operating as such, Tuesday morning, along ^vjfh over 13,000 other banks- throughout the nation. .Times" S- Bicknejl" president, and.the other directors pfthe hank haYe always supported' legislation that-would benefit the bank" or its "dV positors.and are fully in acpord with ; this recent provision' of congress/. :% ■' The first tiling that every, depositor/" wants to. know, is that his, money-in the., bank is safe—at all times, and under all conditions. It was to provided such'-safety for- bank deposifors that Congress, in the • Banking Act of 1933,. created the "Fed:* era!

Depositors of" - banks' which are members of the. Temporary lnsur- - ance Fund will have their net deposits fully insured to the amount of ' ?2,500. It is- estimated this will give complete protection to 96 per cent oi the depositors in these hanks. You do not need to be tpld that , this represents the most sweeping fundamental change which Jias ever taken place in banking,' as well as the strongest pledge of individual security ever offered to bank 'depositors. Your deposits in this bank*are' now- . protected, as stated, by its membership in the Temporary Deposit lnsur- , ance Fund of the PDIC. You. thus have a foundation for confidence .and1 future security, which has a measure of the same soundness and stability;-' that, is inherent in the United B'taiert. Government itself.'
