(Ab*Jtraet of paper read before Clare  Study

Late in tbe sixties the attention of
the world was directed to an unexplored region in the _ northwestern
corner Wyoming, aud accordingly a
number of exploring parties were
sent out to confirm the statements.
When tbe leaders submitted tbeir reports, Congrese, acting with commendable promptitcde, decreed that
this land should be set apart as a
perpetaal playground for the nation.
The mammoth Hot Springs hotel is
one of a series of five big hotels established in the park. And from tbe
wide veranda of this hotel we may-
see the terraces of the mammoth hot
spring*! wbich are the first phenomena presented to the tourist's eye.

St. Louis Girls' Team Ordered
Off By Supt.
The basket ball contest at tbe auditorium laat Friday evening did not
have a very bappy ending. The Supt.
| of Schools at St. Losls, who was acting as referee at the time, becoming
peeved when his decisions were questioned, and stopping tbe game jnst
before tbe first balf was {inched.
The game stood 7 to 2 in our favor
at the time, so there was not much
question as to the ultimate result in
any case. But it seems the manner
in wbicb the Clare forwards threw
baskets aroused the ire of tbis official and he was about to see that
tbey were penalized ad infinitum. An
objection to this method of procedure caused the rupture referred to.
As Sec'y of War Garrison said, there
was nothing of a political nature,
however, in cur differences, and the
boys will go to St. Louis tbis week
to play tbe oft postponed game witb
the boys there. The girls again furnish entertainment here, meeting tbe
higb school team from Chssaning.
A preliminary scuffle of interest
was indulged in   last   week    by    tbe

other churches were present.

Woman's aid in community, betterment begins in her own home and its
influence reaches out far beyond ber

have a better, holier and purer influence in our homes? We feel tbe
great responsibility and that much

are not all we desire them to be. We
look about us and wonder what more

N. J Brown, treasurer and manager of the Mt. Pleasant Light ^*' Fuel
Co., was in town late last week making arrangements to present to the
voters of the city of Clar6 a proposition to furnish its residents with
gas for cooking and lighting purposes.
Tbe matter will be brought before
the Common Council at its regular
meeting next Monday evening and if
they deem advisable, may order the
question submitted to the voters as
to whether this company shall be
gi anted tbe right to use our streets
for this purpose.    It is the
wish to come true. Rut thet is what
happeued, some districts doing better,
of course, and having all three
members: of the board present. Intact, if the crowd had been much
larger, the city council room would
have been unable to accomodate them

Otwell exhibited pictures Of the interior and exterior of several scbool
housee, these being of interest to
several districts that are about to

In the afternoon, some time was

Tuberculosis Day. Valuable leaflets
were distributed giving instructions
from the State Board of Health for
the trt-attccnt of tuberculosis at
home, particularly in its escipient
stages Copies of the new revision
were also handed out at the meeting.
Such a large and enthusastic
gathering cannot help but accomplish
much good for the rural schools of
the county, and all those present are
to be congratulated upon their interest in tbe welfare of our bove and
