ROACHES SCORE
FIRST VICTORY
against EAGLES
Soft Ball Game Tuesday a
Real Thriller on Local Field
Today, nearly every community is
confronted with the problem of spon^
soring some sport or activity, wherein the male portion ot it's young
"America" can give vent to its excess
ambition and hilarity.
- Probably, in searching the books of
the "Laws" and the "Prophets" nc
record of it's young 'manhood will
reward any locality more commendations for it's so-called 'gang' than
should be awarded the city of Clare.
Watched with anxiety by the older
citizens, problematic to the 'City
Fathers', a source of discomfiture to
the parents, but each a diamond in
the rougji himself, some 40 of the
cream of local youth have banded
themselves together under the 'Firm
name' of the "Roaches"- and their
banners should bear the insignia
"The Invincibles."*
Proud of their city, proud of their
characteristic., cfesire for clean sportsmanship, pro'ud of their manly physiques, prou4 of each individual's talents—they are 'proud to unitedly
boast for eactf one's endeavors, This
is most evident in their conversations, both wheg called to order in
their "pit", by .theii1 'Chief or when
congregated in open sessions abroad,
Now, nine of these lads have exceptional skill at playing soft ball
as was demonstrated Tuesday night
when they defeated the Country's
Best, the "Eagles" in an 8 inning
combat which ended 2 to 1 in favor
of the Roaches. Altho some of thb
nicknames or handles adopted by the
boys, may lead the outside world to
believe* them suspicious characters,
yet The Sentinel joins the populace
in their vouchsafe of the boys' merits
as such that any community can well
wax proud of their existence. The
game iB on.
"Jack" Spencer, local south paw
hurter in the uneasy moments of the.
first inning allowed the "Eagles' to
make one score. : •■From then on.
directing his tossesr as signalled by
the catcher "Jigger" Tope and With
the assistance of "Flip": Ho.chs teller
at first, "Nig" . Grover at', second,
"Chuck" Callihan- at: ._Kort> "Monk"
Parish - at third, "Doc"; Sanford, the
rover, '"Buss" Bell in < left field; .'Peg'
•Quick in center and "Budd" Anderson, in right; he held the- "Eagleites"
helpless thru Out the remainder of
the game, The 'Roaches': having
scored the tying ran in **• the sixth
meant the game must go beyond the
usual 7 innings, but not. for. long,
With a man oh first-and one on third
in the -Sfh," 'Nig'- Groves, with that
'Babe Ruth' confidence stepped up to
the plate facing the 'Eagle' hurler,
'Stub' Davis and drove • home*, the
winning run which meant the first
defeat the gagleites have experienced
in two years. •
Here's tp the 'Roaches' and Mr.
Citizen, both local and transient
When, in passing down our fair
avenues,'you behold a lad with a
blue sweat shirt on, with a white bug
painted on his back, don't deem him
'nutty' or term him a 'novice' but pat
him on the shoulder with pride, because he is our sample of 'Young
America, and we are for him."

THE FAMILY-FOOD SUPPLY
■ The homemaker should plan meals,
so that they will offer/,the right :kind
of food in the right quantity. *- In' order to be sure -that she iV doing this
she should include:
MILK—One quart a day fpr each
child;''one pint for1 each adult. This
Is the ideal, Never use less than
one Pint' however,, "for each clilld and
a half pint for each adult. . Milk is
the best' building food for children.
It supplies fuel, it supplies minerals;
it carries a good supply of Vitamins
A, B, and C. ."-■-»
Pasteurized milk. is safer than raw
milk, because complete pasteurization-kills the gerrfts that cause tuber-
culosis, Infantile diarrhea, septic ?sore
throat, typhoid fever, diphtheria and
scarlet fever. it raw milk is usefl
or advised* it should, -of course, be
certified.
Milk should be covered and should
be kept cold; that will keep it clean,
sweet and free from strange flavor*
and odors. If there is Ho ice In the
home, it may be necessary in hot
weather to buy milk twice a day, let-
tin^jthe^.dealsS.kefip it cold.A temper-
aturT'lretween 45-50 degrees F. keeps
milk from spoiling.
Dried and. evaporated milk have the
same food value as pasteurized milk
and in some places cost less. Dried
milk can be used in small quantities
as needed and need not be kept on
'ice. After the can is opened, evap
orated milk must have the same care
as fresh milk. Sweetened condensed
milk has had sugar added as a preservative. It can be used in cooking or in place of cream. It, too,
must have the same care as fresh
milk after the can is opened. These
are all prepared'by the addition of
water.
BREADS AND CEREALS-—should
be used daily. They supply fuel at
low cost. White bread made with
milk, as it is in. the modern bakery,
supplies minerals and vitamins to the
diet. Whole grains, however, because of their roughage and added
amounts of the other elements, particularly Vitamin B, should appear at
least once a." day. • Cereal products,
such as macaroniUand rice should b?
used freely. • T-he-\elements which
they lack can be made, up.by uslhij
them with cheese, milk or vegetables
The home-cooked cereals are Usually less expensive than the ready-to-
serve cereals. While the home-cook-
ed cereals should be fed to children
under three years old, the others, aru
good and may be used by the olden
members of the family for variety,

FRIDAY EVENING
Death Was Due to Heart
Trouble. Funeral Held

called upon medical men in Clare.
When at his home he complained
slightly and rested upon the davenport when medical aid was again
called" and he was advised to take a
complete rest for several weeks.. Mr.
Hart's desire to be about his homc
was foremost and when his weary
and tired feeling had eased he attempted to leave his bed, and he
slumped at its side. His brother

was away a few momenta on an or-
rand. ** •

MRS. CARRIK BREWER
DIES AT VERNON
HOMESTEAD_SUNDAY
Last <$■ Aged Pioneers Who
Settled in Viciftity Sixty- ,
three Years Ago
Carrie G, Stearns was horn at
Pittsneld, Mass., November 29, 1850,
and-passing from this life Sunday
evening, July 28. . . ... ' ', . *.;
She came to Jackson county, lijich*
Igan with her parents . when jorir
years of age.
After ■ teaching school for several!*,
years, after graduating from the v'il-;
lage school, she was. united in mar-' .
rlage to "Dwight J. Brewer at- Danrigfy
Michigan. Mrs. Brewer*' also; taught'
school one year after her husband's'
accidental death in 1881.
Three children were born to this '
union; Ernest D„ who died in 190J,"
Morton B., who died ,in 1926, and
Edith M,.-, who has lovingly cared for
her mother during her many years
of sickness, and one brother, Charle'S
Stearns, of Bellingham, Mich, There
were two grandchildren Forrest P,
Brewer of Vernon, and Mrs. Dorothy
Derby, of Pontiac and four • great
grand children, all of whom have
been a great joy to their grandma in
the last few years.
When Mr. and/^Irs. Brewer home-
steaded . their farm- in "Vernon township it was realsjpioneer. work. One
interesting memory fo Mrs. Brewer
was the happy reception she aiid her.
husband received:: the first night they .
arrived; when the neighbors gathered outside rather late?-at night and
sang for them.
Mr. and Mrs. Brewer "were both
charter members of the First Congregational church of Clare. Mrs.
Brewer not only retained her membership in her beloved church .but
has always, shown a great interest,
and given liberally to its support in-
many ways.
It is to be noted that our sister
was never very strong physically; in
fact one of the reasons for the parents coming to Michigan was on, account of her health. So that wheu
we remember the fact, when her husband died -she was left with three
small .children, we realize how
heroically she .faced the task of siif-'- -
Ing for her family and maintaining
and buMitig tip the farm.
With the exception of a few year-^
that she went with her daughter,
Edith to keep house during tha
school years thdt she taught^, Mrs.
Brewer has lived on this farm since
coming as a bride 63 years ago. In
fact wherever she happened to reside
for short periods of time, this has-.aH
ways been home to her. . She , was .
the last of the original.homesteaders
of that vicinity, of Vernon..- .. ■■,;
Outstanding in her. character, was
the spirit of.helpfulness and thought-
fulness for .others;, very sensible, in*
all her judgements and most agreeable among her relatives and Mends.
One great pleasure she'has rnaa-
ifested during recent weeks .and
months has been the reciting , of
poems, and passages of scripture, she
•memorized in her youthful days,
which bespeaks the fact that she
treasured and valued her attachment,
to the church, and the faith she hag
professed in the true and living God»
Our sister will long be remembdrod
as a true and loving mother and a
sincere faithful friend. $
The funeral service was held aV
the home southeast of Clare, Tuesday afternoon July 30, conducted by
Rev. Albert Dawe. Burial was made
in Cherry Grove cemetery with Cha.;.
Thurton & Son in charge.
Those who attended the funeral
from out of town were the following;
Mr. and Mrs. Frank C. .Derby, of
Pontiac; Mr. and Mrs. Ernest
Stearns, Lake City; Mr. and Mrs,
Harold White, and family, Brinton;
Mr. Paul White, and Mr. and Mrs.
Edward J. White, of Flint; Mr. and,

Watched with anxiety by the older citizens, problematic to the 'City Fathers', a source of discomfiture to the parents, but each a diamond in the rougji himself, some 40 of the cream of local youth have banded themselves together under the 'Firm name' of the "Roaches"- and their banners should bear the insignia "The Invincibles."* Proud of their city, proud of their characteristic., cfesire for clean sportsmanship, pro'ud of their manly physiques, prou4 of each individual's talents—they are 'proud to unitedly boast for eactf one's endeavors, This is most evident in their conversations, both wheg called to order in their "pit", by .theii1 'Chief or when congregated in open sessions abroad, Now, nine of these lads have exceptional skill at playing soft ball as was demonstrated Tuesday night when they defeated the Country's Best, the "Eagles" in an 8 inning combat which ended 2 to 1 in favor of the Roaches. Altho some of thb nicknames or handles adopted by the boys, may lead the outside world to believe* them suspicious characters, yet The Sentinel joins the populace in their vouchsafe of the boys' merits as such that any community can well wax proud of their existence. The game iB on. "Jack" Spencer, local south paw hurter in the uneasy moments of the. first inning allowed the "Eagles' to make one score. : •■From then on. directing his tossesr as signalled by the catcher "Jigger" Tope and With the assistance of "Flip": Ho.chs teller at first, "Nig" . Grover at', second, "Chuck" Callihan- at: ._Kort> "Monk" Parish - at third, "Doc"; Sanford, the rover, '"Buss" Bell in < left field; .'Peg' •Quick in center and "Budd" Anderson, in right; he held the- "Eagleites" helpless thru Out the remainder of the game, The 'Roaches': having scored the tying ran in **• the sixth meant the game must go beyond the usual 7 innings, but not. for. long, With a man oh first-and one on third in the -Sfh" 'Nig'- Groves, with that 'Babe Ruth' confidence stepped up to the plate facing the 'Eagle' hurler, 'Stub' Davis and drove • home*, the winning run which meant the first defeat the gagleites have experienced in two years. • Here's tp the 'Roaches' and Mr. Citizen, both local and transient When, in passing down our fair avenues,'you behold a lad with a blue sweat shirt on, with a white bug painted on his back, don't deem him 'nutty' or term him a 'novice' but pat him on the shoulder with pride, because he is our sample of 'Young America, and we are for him."

TruCounty Health Unit Activities THE FAMILY-FOOD SUPPLY ■ The homemaker should plan meals, so that they will offer/,the right :kind of food in the right quantity. *- In' order to be sure -that she iV doing this she should include: MILK—One quart a day fpr each child;''one pint for1 each adult. This Is the ideal, Never use less than one Pint' however,, "for each clilld and a half pint for each adult. . Milk is the best' building food for children. It supplies fuel, it supplies minerals; it carries a good supply of Vitamins A, B, and C. ."-■-» Pasteurized milk. is safer than raw milk, because complete pasteurization-kills the gerrfts that cause tuber- culosis, Infantile diarrhea, septic ?sore throat, typhoid fever, diphtheria and scarlet fever. it raw milk is usefl or advised* it should, -of course, be certified. Milk should be covered and should be kept cold; that will keep it clean, sweet and free from strange flavor* and odors. If there is Ho ice In the home, it may be necessary in hot weather to buy milk twice a day, let- tin^jthe^.dealsS.kefip it cold.A temper- aturT'lretween 45-50 degrees F. keeps milk from spoiling. Dried and. evaporated milk have the same food value as pasteurized milk and in some places cost less. Dried milk can be used in small quantities as needed and need not be kept on 'ice. After the can is opened, evap orated milk must have the same care as fresh milk. Sweetened condensed milk has had sugar added as a preservative. It can be used in cooking or in place of cream. It, too, must have the same care as fresh milk after the can is opened. These are all prepared'by the addition of water. BREADS AND CEREALS-—should be used daily. They supply fuel at low cost. White bread made with milk, as it is in. the modern bakery, supplies minerals and vitamins to the diet. Whole grains, however, because of their roughage and added amounts of the other elements, particularly Vitamin B, should appear at least once a." day. • Cereal products, such as macaroniUand rice should b? used freely. • T-he-\elements which they lack can be made, up.by uslhij them with cheese, milk or vegetables The home-cooked cereals are Usually less expensive than the ready-to- serve cereals. While the home-cook- ed cereals should be fed to children under three years old, the others, aru good and may be used by the olden members of the family for variety, (Continued on page seven) JULIAN PR0VER DIES SATURDAY FOLLOW- ING SHORT ILLNESS Funeral Services Held From St. Cecilia Church Monday Morning CHANGE MADE IN N.
