LOCAL COMMITTEE
APPOINTED FOR
HOUSING SURVEY
Barrh Owners are  Cooperating
Whole Heartedly in Securing Data
Preliminary reports from Home
Economic wom'en,--' who are field
agents for the survey to secure data
on additions, repairs, and improvements needed by the farm homes of
the Nation, indicate that farm owners in this vicinity are cooperating
whole heartedly in the survey. The
field agents for this county are Helen
Hether, Frances Davy, Mary Saul,
Katherine Briggs, Gladys Stanley,
Harrold. The State chairman and
vice chairman are Miss Edna V.
Smith, State Home Demonstration
Leader and George Amundsen, Extension . Specialist Agricultural Engineering.
In some of the 300 counties in the
Ignited States which were chosen as
typical and therefore adapted for the
purposes of the present survey work
was delayed because of the holiday
season, and storms or floods slowed
up the work elsewhere. Following
New Year's day, however, fleld
agents were at work in most of the
counties and the schedules they are
filling out are being returned to
county headquarters for compilation
and tabulation. Later the scheduled;
will be sent to State headquarters}
and the final compilation will be sent
to Washington.
The survey is in charge of the
Bureau of Home Economics of the
TJ. S.* Department of Agriculture. In
each State the Extension Service is
cooperating with the Department.
' In addition to the immediate employment benefits which come during
the quietest months of the farm year,
local survey leaders point out that
the survey will give the farm owners
themselves and the ..Department of
Agriculture an Indication of the most
immediate needs in farm homes.
Needed improvements would, if
jnita&gtl.ln & way satisfactory to the
lasOTter, produce activity in the build-
g'and equipment trades, thus bene*'
tiug'trfede and agriculture alike.
MRS. THOS. MICHAEL
UCCLIBS VERY SUDDENLY JANUARY 8TH
Death Claims Former Clare
Lady Following Coughing Attack
The village was greatly shocked
Monday, January Sth upon learning
of the death of Mrs. Thomas Michael,
which occurred at her home about
6:30 that morning. The passing oi
Mrs. Michael was entirely unexpected
as she had not been particularly ill,
and naturally is a shock to her husband and daughter who were with her
when her end came, and to her two
sons.
Mrs. Michael arose early that morning and when she qame back to bed
her husband asked her what time it
was. She went to the clock on the
mantle, struck a match and remarked
that it was just six-thirty, and got
back into the bed, when she Immediately commenced, to cough,. Mr:
Michael realized that she was coughing differently than was usual and he
called to their daughter, Ellen. She
came at once and making a light they
found she had passed away.
Mrs. Michael was born in Germany
and if the had lived until the 29th of
this month she would have reached
her 58th milestone. She came with
her parents to this country when she
was five years of age, the family living in Clare county. She was married to Thomas Michael on March 7th
1905 at Detroit, where tKey lived for
some time and then moved to Clare
where Mr. Michael ran a newspapei
for several years, after which they
moved back to Detroit where they lived until they came north about three
years ago, moving to Atlanta two
years ago and into the new house
they built here. She leaves fou*
children, Carl, of Detroit, Ellen at
home and Paul, a member of the U.
S. Marines in China now, and Thomas
W., of Detroit; besides a sister, Mrs.
Foltz, of Darien, Wis., and a brother;
Paul H. Belling, of Cleveland.
The funeral was held at the home
Wednesday afternoon and interment
in Brlley cemetery. Rev. Francis,
of Hillman, officiating.
While Mrs. Michael had not lived,
here very long, she had endeared
herself to all of those people who had
met her, and she was congenial, intelligent and affable. She was a
home body and therefore did not have
a very large acquaintance here.
Her husband and children have the
sympathy of the entire community
in their bereavement—Montmorency
Herald.
Mrs. Michael had many friends in
Clare and adjoining communities who
will regret to learn of her sudden demise.

SOMETHING DIFFERENT IN BIBLE

Illinois Pastor Brings Unique
Messages in a Series of
Special Meetings at
Baptist Church
"From Cradle
Roll Harber to
Bible Class Bay'
is the subject oi
an illustrated mes
sage, or series oi
messages, to be
delivered in the
Baptist church by
Rev. Robert J. De
vine, pastor of the
Madison street
church, of Otik
Park, Illinois. The
services will com
mence Monday
evening, January
22nd, at 7:45 o'clock and con
tinue each night, Saturday excepted,
at the same hour.
Mr. Devine uses a map of the United States in the presentation of this
novel and original message, and it'
has become known . in the United
States and Canada as "The Map Message." It has been presented in some
of the largest churches in Chicago
and has been heard in other states as
well as in some of the larger cities
of Canada. The author is a student
of psychology, and, knowing that
folks remember fifty per cent of what
they see and only ten per cent of
what they hear, he has made use of
the "eyegate" method to reach the
hearts of his hearers. The "messages,
while prepared orginaliy for Sunday
School oonventions, to reach Sunday
school workers, have expanded and
extended in scope until they are beneficial to parents, pastors, Sunday
school teachers and workers, young
people and Christian workers everywhere. Their inspirational value has
been such that pastors have requested an early repetition of them because of the evident effect upon their
people. While each message is complete in itself, the whole series build's
up night after night, unfolding, as
one Chicago pastor declares, like a
continued story* as each state in the
union is given a name. Mr. Devine
has made a detailed study of juvenile
and crime conditions among the.
young of this land, and the whole
series of' messages p"rovides one

SPECIAL SESSION
OF COURT HELD AT
HARRISON THuRS.
Bert Sheridan Now Paying
Penalty for Stealing FJve' ..
Band Instruments
St. Louis High ran up against some
real opposition when they tangled
with the Clare Highs basketball
team on their own floor last Friday
night and only emerged victoriuos
after a hard struggle. The final score
was 34 to 26 and marks the largest
score in all this year by the Clare
team. There is great improvement in
basket shooting and in all-round play.
A slightly-built forward caused the
downfall of the Clare team. His name
was Sigourney and he scored 19 of
his team's 34 points. He was plenty
fast and was an unerring shot,
throughout the first half but In the
second period he was covered much-
better and only made five points.
The Clare boys never gave UP,
fighting all the time for those precious points but could not gather
enough to. quite even up the score,
Several rather easy shots were missed that would have gone a long way
in making their score larger and „ a
slightly higher percentage of successful foul shots would' have brought
them up even. The boys are optimistic over the return game believing
they can stop their high scoring forward of St. Louis and perhaps hand
them a trimming.
Players   Meet  Defeat Again  Tuesday
The Clare players were not up to
the form displayed in the two previous games and lost to a scrappyi
Evart team Tuesday night. The 19
to 4 score at half time showed how
poorly they played. However they
came back and displayed some pretty
good basket ball the last half to out
score the Evart boys 15 to 10. The
final score was 29 to 19—the game
being won in the first half by the
Evart boys.
Gladwin  Here Tonight
The game tonight is with Gladwin
who come over to Clare as their floor
is in the making. It is expected that
it will be completed so Clare can
play the return game there February
20th. They have no place to practice
and have made arrangements to use
the local floor one night a week. Thej|
will have a good team for several are
left over from last year.
Reed City plays here January 26th
in the return ^game and Evart here
again February 2nd. The Evart gym
is being rebuilt and they are making
arrangements to play all games
away from home.
On Thursday, January 11th," the
Clare County Circuit Court convened
for a special session at Harrison before Judge Hart. Although only'two
cases were taken up the session, lasted the entire day. Winifred Post
Dudd, the regular Circuit Court Reporter was unable to be present and
■Angela Solosky, Assistant Reporter,
of Midland took her .place.
The first matter to come before the
Court was a criminal prosecution for
burglary, The People versus Bert
Sheridan, alias Bert Hoffman, alias
Albert C. Moore. In this case the Defendant was accused of breaking into the Clare School building and
■stealing therefrom five • musical instruments bnlonging to student members of the High School band. Substantially the information charged
that the Defendant on the 25th day of
November, 1933 at about ten o'clock
in the night-time with the intent to
commit larceny therein, did break
and enter a school house situated in
the city of Clare.
. In this case The People were represented by Theodore G. Bowler, Prosecuting Attorney; the Defendant was
present in the custody of Sheriff Edmond Woods but was not represented by legal counsel; the Clare School
District was represented hy Dr. Allen E Mulder and E D Kennedy, President of the Board and Superintendent of the high school. Mr. Sheridan announced that he was ready to
plead to the charges brought against
him, the information was read to-
him by the Prosecuting Attorney and
the Defendant entered a plea of
guilty. After Judge Hart had talked-
with the Defendant he announced!
that he would accept the plea. The-
sentence of the Court was that a.
minimum of eight years to a maxr
mum of fifteen years with a recommendation of ten years. Mr. Sheridan
Was then into the custody of thaj.
sheriff and taken to Jackson.
The second case to come - before-'
the Court was the chancery action Of
Harry Vosburg and Margaret Vos-
b'urg versus Orl Sipe and' Mae Sipei
This is a suit brought asking thei
Court to take jurisdiction of a law
action. Both parties were represented by their attorneys, Joseph IC
