FIRE DESTROYS
SUTTON TENANT
HODSESATURDAY
Roof Burned From Andrew
Willy Home Friday
Morning
The tenant house occupied by Mr,
and Mrs. Ralph Coles and three children, on the James Sutton farm, northwest of Clare in Grant township, was
completely destroyed by fire at 7:00
o'clock Saturday morning.
It is thought that the Are was caused
by the explosion of a heating stove.
Mr. and Mrs. Coles had built a Are in
the stove and were eating their breakfast in the kitchen when the Are was
discovered. One of the children, sleeping in a bedroom near the source of
the fire, was awakened by a sound
similar to an explosion and thought
she heard particles of coal striking the
walls of the room.
The Clare Fire Department was
called, but the house was in a mass of
flames when the rural fire truck
arrived.
Most of the contents of the house,
belonging to the Coles, were destroyed, including about 500 pounds of
meat which had just been canned and
the remainder of their winter's canned
fruits and vegetables, besides their
clothing. The house was partially
covered by insirrance, but the contents
that were burned are a total loss. "
The Coles are living in an apartment in the Mrs. Mary Randall home,
nearby, for the present.
Andrew Willy Home Damaged
A lire, thought to have started
from a spark from the chimney,
burned the entire south side off the
roof of the Andrew Willy home, five
miles south and three and a quarter
miles west of Clare, at about 11:00
o'clock Friday morning of last week.
Through the splendid efforts of the
neighbors, who formed a bucket
bridage,, the fire was extinguished before the Clare Fire Department could
reach the scene.

of Play
Youths Warned of
Danger of Kites
Contacting Wires
Benjamin Franklin used a kite to
prove that liglitning is electricity,
but Clare youths were warned today
against using kites to prove that electricity is lightning.
The warning came from C. A. Well-
man, Local Manager of Consumers
Power Company.
"If accidents.are to be avoided," he
said, "kites and electric wires must
be kept apart."
He listed safety rules for boys and
girls flying kites:
Choose an open space, well away
from electric wires of any kind.
Don't let your kite get away from
you.
If it does get away from you, don't
get so interested in chasing it that you
run into the street without looking.
Don't use wire or tinsel cord as -a
kite string, for these are conductors
of electricity.
Don't use metal in the kite framework..
Remember that a wet string will
conduct electricity the same as wire.
If a kite becomes entangled in electric wires, let it go. Many a kite
flier has been severely or fatally injured through climbing a utility pole
or reaching up into electric wires with
a rake or stick.
Postponed!
Because of the Republican City Caucus being called for Tuesday evening,
March 18th, the February meeting of
the. Clare Chamber of Commerce has
been postponed indefinitely. Further
announcements will appear in next

REPUBLICAN COUNTY
CHAIRMEN MEET IN
CLARE WEDNESDAY
Chairman of Central State Committee Butler Speaks
Before Group
Six schools, inchiding Clare, Coleman, Harrison, Weidman, Barryton,
and Farwell, entered their seventh and
eighth graders in a Championship-
Consolation schedule at the Farwell
high school beginning Tuesday, March
11th, with semi-finals this Friday
night, March 14, and finals on Tuesday
night, March 18th. In this way no
school plays more than two games in

In these games, good sportsmanship,
good health with proper food and exercise, control of temper and bad
language, courtesy and respect for the
other fellow, will be stressed, before
as well as after the games are over.

CLARE FACULTY
TO PRESENT PLAY
MARCH26 AND 27
"Arms and the Man" Expected to Fill Auditorium Two Nights
"Arms and ;;.e Man," the Clare
faculty play, will be presented Wednesday and Thursday nights, March
26 and 27, announcement was made
Ihis week.
The reason for giving the play on
two nights, instead of the customary
one performance, is to accomodate all
those interested in seeing the play.
This decision was reached upon the
ground that "Arms and the Man" is a
play which is worth the attention of
a large number of people. The plot is
comic, the dialogue light and natural.
The theme of the play, that the glories
of war are an illusion, (arms do not
make the man) is especially timely.
The events so resoundingly taking
place abroad and at. home point to the
current interest of the theme. Perhaps it is no coincidence that the
setting of Bernard Shaw's play is in
the Balkans, the scene where part of
today's drama is unfolding.
Tickets for the two performances
will soon be available. A committee,
headed by Leo Brown, who is assisted
by Arthur Steeby and E. D. Kennedy,
has been selected to handle this matter. It is predicted that an intensive
drive will be made, and hoped an
equally enthusiastic response will be
given by the public. The net profits
of the play will go into a student fund
which is pro-rated among the high
school classes. Part of this fund will
be used to defray the expenses of the
Senior trip, an important phase of the
culminating events of the Senior year.
AG COMMISSIONER
BEAMER COMMENTS
ON FAJW EDITION
Lauds Special Stories Written by Farm Authorities
Among the letters  coming to the
editor's desk, commenting on 'the third
annual farm edition of The Sentinel,
was the following very interesting letter from Elmer A, Beamer, Commissioner   of  the   State  Department of
Agriculture.
The Clare Sentinel
Clare, Michigan.
Gentlemen:
I received a copy of your good publication of Friday, February 28th, and
I want you to know that I appreciate
your giving me an opportunity to
read the articles written by Robert C.
Kleiner on soil building practices and
what Our mutual friend, George A.
Brown, head of the Animal Husbandry Department of the Michigan State
College said in regard to the large ha,y
crop, and how it represents eighty per
cent of the, total cost of producing
beef. I also noted what he had to say
in regard to sheep.
I am still strongly of the opinion
that a great portion of the country
served by your good paper is range
land and the best results will be obtained by using it for that purpose. I
am sure that there should be no disagreement in the minds of any of us
who are interested in Michigan and
her future, that wherever the land is
used for some purpose other than grazing, that the crops and treatment
should be of such a nature as to improve the soil. The better lands could'
be sown to legumes that would not
only enrich the soil but furnish abundant food for the stock during the winter, and the "marginal lands used for1
grazing purposes.
I feel that you have rendered a real
service to the people in northea.stern
Michigan through your good publication by presenting to them the viewpoint of men like George Brown, Mr.
Decker of the Fann Crops Department
and O. E. Shear, Extension Specialist
in Poultry, not forgetting by any
means your own Robert C. Kleiner,. -
Chairman of your Clare county organization.
I think there is one thing we must
all keep in mind in regard to large
tracts of land that do not contain the
necessary amount of fertility for continuous cropping, proper grazing will
take nothing out of the soil, and if the
land is not overgrazed, will be a co_t-
tinuous source of revenue for years to
come.
Very sincerely yours,
Elmer A. Beamer, Commissioner

Farmers in Sheridan Township must
have suspected a news story prodding
the sleepy response to a better sleeps'
ing program which appeared "last
week. Supervisor, Reginald McBridej.
the Sheridan A.CP. Committmen and
Shei-idan farm folks have 3aid to
themselves "you can't do that to me",
and have assured themselves of some
good rest when the summer toil makes
Weary muscles. Sheridan folks are on
their way toward the second hundred',
mattress applications while report-
from most of the remainder of the
county indicate one of two things,
either the people don't work hardj
enough to' get tired or they are perfectly satisfied with their present
"rest." Some letters received indicate*
that some folks have not made up--
their minds whether the effort to make?
a mattress is too great for the added;
comfort it might provide over the present one.
Of one thing all  can be assured,.'.
when  application  No.  480  has  beeiv,
filed in the county office, it will b-'*
top late to file application No. 481,
Applications   are   being   dated   andt
initialed by the local committees   and'
filed promptly in the county  office..
There are only 480 mattresses per car--.

• One "don't" to observe is, don't
come to the county agent's office,,to-
make application for a mattress. Each.",
supervisor and each farm conservation committee man has application
blanks, has been instructed in making
out the applications, and is authorized
to receive the $1.00 fee which is. re-'
