COMMERCE HEARS
OF AFRICAN HUNT
Wm. Mershon, of Saginaw;
Speaks on Kenya Colony Expedition
Members of the Clare Chamber of
Commerce and their guests, the Harrison Board .J'COn-m'ercei to the numi
her of fifty, met at the Hotel Doherty
Tuesday evening for the regular November meetihg of the chamber.
Following the serving of the delicious dinner. President Harold Fleming introduced the Harrison guests
and then' turned the meeting over to
Geo. "White, program chairman, who
acted as master of ceremonies. Other
members of the - committee were
Francis Jackson and Theo. Wallington.
The first number on the program
consisted of singing, playing ancl
dancing by the Camp Houghton Lake
Glee Club and orchestra, who favored
the audience with chorus and sole*)
'numbers and specialties. There were
about thirty colored boys in the C. C.
C. group and their rhythm and syn-
■ZJa copation delighted all present,
Mr. White then introduced Wm.
Mershon, of Saginaw, the principal
speaker of the* evening, who related
his experiences on a big game hunting trip in Kenya Colony, British
East Africa,
Mr. Mershon spoke briefly of his
first hunting experiences in the vicinity of Harrison and the similarity of
the entertainment by the C. C. C. boys
and that "of their predecessors in
Africa.
He then spoke of his big game hunting experiences, saying that the preparations for such a trip are important and extensive. His party consisting of two white hunters and
fifty-six native porters preceded him
and had the camp in readiness when
he and his companion hunter reach-
*> ed there.
The gun bearers of the safari, who
carried the heavy guns and were constantly at the heels of the hunters>
prepared for any emergency, were the.
-warriors and sportsmen of their
respective tribes and often proved to
be the heroes of the hunt.
He then spoke of the routine of the
expedition, 'saying that each morning they were aroused toy their personal boys, at 5:00 o'clock, whq
„^F' brought them water and raw coffee.
They then ate their breakfast and
were on the.ir way *before sunrise,,
which in the equatorial country
comes quickly! The heat didn't bother them as much as the intensity of
the light rays, which beat straight
- down upon them constantly from,
dawn to darkness.
The duties of the porters were to
carry lunch,'." ammunition, cameras,
etc. and to'do the skinning. The white
hunters, who acted in an advisory
capacity and as guides were selected,
by the government and', filled respon?
sible positions, being responsible for
the safety of their charges.
The safaii' stopped at 11:00 o'clock
for lunch and; following the .--""hunt,
started back for camp at about 2:00
o'clock, reaching there before darkness which came at 6:00 o'clock.
Upon their return, the personal boys
would be Waiting with hot tea, which
- proved very soothing to their nerves
after a day of strenuous hunting and
dry heat. Following'this they bathed,
in hot water, in folding canvas tubsj
donned their mosquito hoots and pajamas, to guard against the bite pf the
Insect which carried malaria germs;
and were ready for their dinner which,
, believe it or not, was served in cours-
''■'. The soup course came first followed by meat^ w*hich was usually very
tough, the fish course of sardines and
stewed prunes* or apricots for dessert. At times "they were fortunate

Nearly §60,000 will be expended by
the Mihcigan Bell "Telephone Company in providing Clare with a new
telephone central office building, installing new central office apparatus,
improving and adding to the outside
telephone plant, placing new telephones in the homes and places of

changing the type of service. Announcement to that effect was made
yesterday by T. C. Maher of Midland,
manager for the company in this area.
It is anticipated that bids will be invited shortly on the construction of
the building, which will be of the
cottage type and will be erected on
Fourth Street, between Pine and McEwan., The plans are now being
drawn.
Installation of the central office apparatus will be started as soon as .possible after completion of the building
and will take several months, following which the equipment will be given
a complete test over a number of
days to insure its proper functioning.
The equipment has been engineered
and now is being fabricated in the
plants of the Western Electric Company, manufacturing and supply division of the Bell Sysetm.

for Clare, anyone wishing to make a
call will he enabled to signal the
operator merely by lifting the receiver

"White, program chairman, who acted as master of ceremonies. Other members of the - committee were Francis Jackson and Theo. Wallington. The first number on the program consisted of singing, playing ancl dancing by the Camp Houghton Lake Glee Club and orchestra, who favored the audience with chorus and sole*) 'numbers and specialties. There were about thirty colored boys in the C. C. C. group and their rhythm and syn- ■ZJa copation delighted all present, Mr. White then introduced Wm. Mershon, of Saginaw, the principal speaker of the* evening, who related his experiences on a big game hunting trip in Kenya Colony, British East Africa, Mr. Mershon spoke briefly of his first hunting experiences in the vicinity of Harrison and the similarity of the entertainment by the C. C. C. boys and that "of their predecessors in Africa. He then spoke of his big game hunting experiences, saying that the preparations for such a trip are important and extensive. His party consisting of two white hunters and fifty-six native porters preceded him and had the camp in readiness when he and his companion hunter reach- *> ed there. The gun bearers of the safari, who carried the heavy guns and were constantly at the heels of the hunters> prepared for any emergency, were the. -warriors and sportsmen of their respective tribes and often proved to be the heroes of the hunt. He then spoke of the routine of the expedition, 'saying that each morning they were aroused toy their personal boys, at 5:00 o'clock, whq „^F' brought them water and raw coffee. They then ate their breakfast and were on the.ir way *before sunrise,, which in the equatorial country comes quickly! The heat didn't bother them as much as the intensity of the light rays, which beat straight - down upon them constantly from, dawn to darkness. The duties of the porters were to carry lunch,'." ammunition, cameras, etc. and to'do the skinning. The white hunters, who acted in an advisory capacity and as guides were selected, by the government and', filled respon? sible positions, being responsible for the safety of their charges. The safaii' stopped at 11:00 o'clock for lunch and; following the .--""hunt, started back for camp at about 2:00 o'clock, reaching there before darkness which came at 6:00 o'clock. Upon their return, the personal boys would be Waiting with hot tea, which - proved very soothing to their nerves after a day of strenuous hunting and dry heat. Following'this they bathed, in hot water, in folding canvas tubsj donned their mosquito hoots and pajamas, to guard against the bite pf the Insect which carried malaria germs; and were ready for their dinner which, , believe it or not, was served in cours- ''■'.
