CASE SCHAAFSMA HAS
HANDS BADLY BURNED
AS BANDAGES IGNITE
Tuesday afternoon Case Schaafsma,
local manager of the Clare Beaverton Lumber Co., met with a very
painful accident which will be a
great handicap to him for several
weeks. Mr. Schaafsma has. had infection in his hands and this day they
had been freshly bandaged with clotli
saturated with alcohol. Without thinking of the. immediate danger, he
struck a match to light his. pipe and
suddenly the bandages were ignited
by flames. He struggled desperately
in an effort to/ remove the burning-
cloth, but with them came bits of
skin. Mr. Schaafsma was taken to
the Clare General hospital as soon as
his assistant arrived and Dr. Wood's
found him suffering with second degree burns on his hands and wrists.
In checking up on. his condition Thursday, we found him at his regular post
of duty, but his pen and pencil are
idle.

reverted to the state highway department will be directed by Fred Bingham, of Farwell, who was officially
appointed superintendent of maintenance of State Trunk Lines by state
high way commissioner, Murray D.
VanWagoner, last Monday. Mr.
Bingham will have charge of all the
State and Federal Trunk Lines i n
Clare County. He was notified of his
prospective appointment about December 20th and since that time has,
at the request of the State Commis-,
sion, been perfecting plans for assuming his new duties.
Mr. Bingham is well and favorably
known by many people in this locality, having spent the most of his life
in Farwell, since the death of his
father he has conducted the Hardware business bearing his name.

John Dunlop, local" horse fancier,
has recently brought to Clare as fine
a pair of horses as has .ever been
shown in this locality, * They are a
fast team of thoroughbred seal brown
square, trotters and are perfectly
matched, being full brother and sister. These horses have been shown in
the rings of Illinois and Indiana and
John expects to "enter them at the
Clare County Fair this fall.
If anyone is in doubt of their
beauty and ability, a ride behind this
pair- of trotters will convince them,
that they are really an exceptionally
flne team.
John was a little modest about the
purchase price of the horses, but he,
admitted that they cost as much as
a pretty good automobile. He bought
them from I. H. Lindover of Dans-
ville, Illinois.
- John also has fifty head of good
draft horses at "Hildabrae," his
modernly equiped farm, here.
He has always been a lover of flne

he has not only realized a life long
ambition, but has brought horse flesh
to this community of which it can be
justly proud.
