ALL OUT SCRAP
METAL DRIVE TO
STARTMONDAY
Every Organization and
Person is Urged to
Cooperate
Our steel mills are operating on a
day to day basis with less than ten
days supply of scrap in sight. About
November 15th more than one-half of
our nation will be blanketed with
snow. This area is also the half that
has more heavy farm scrap than the
southern half and it cannot be
collected during the four months of
winter and early spring. Seventeen
million tons of scrap iron are needed
to keep our mills running through the
winter and something must be done
about it—now!
The best grades of steel contain
fifty per cent scrap and some of our
electric furnaces use one hundred per
cent scrap. New blast furnaces are
being built to handle more pig iron,
hut these are not scheduled for completion until next spring.
There is as much aud more scrap on
the farms as has been collected, as is
evidenced by results of consecutive
scrap drives in some localities and a
search for the scrap in all communities, This scrap can be started on its
way to the mills only through thorough organization and the wholehearted support of every loyal American citizen in an effort to find the
scrap and to get it to the scrap piles
where it can be taken out during
winter weather. <
A meeting was held at the Brewer
_ Thompson Implement Store Monday
evening, with George Lehr presiding,
for the purpose of interesting every
citizen in the country and surrounding
communities in getting behind this
vital war effort now while there is still
time to get the scrap out before inclement weather and when the steel
mills need the metal urgently. Plans
were discussed and announced for an
all out scrap metal drive of every
organization and every person in the
county.
Township War Club Chairmen are
the heads of scrap committees in each
township and members of the County
Committee. These men will work
with the cooperation of the farmers in
an effort to get every pound of scrap
assembled on the farm ready to be
moved by Saturday, October 31st.
Beginning Monday, November 2nd,

WARNS GASOLINE
STORAGE ILLEGAL
IN THIS STATE
Commissioner Olander of
State Police Says Don't
Try to Beat Rationing
Law violation and risk of insurance
cancellation hang over the head of the
motorist who undertakes the storage
of gasoline, Commissioner Oscar G.
Olander of the Michigan State Police
warned this weelc
•To supplement the four-gallons-per
week supply in prospect when rationing is effective, many motorists are
requesting special deliveries and
storages of gasoline, state police have
learned.
f Commissioner Olander, as Are
marshal of the state, declared such
practice constituted a violation of
state laws. Further, such action invalidates Are insurance contracts, he
said.
"Michigan should profit by the experiences of the east, where gasoline
rationing has been in effect several
months," Commissioner Olander said.
"Many accidents and explosions have
resulted from the attempt there of a,
few motorists to hoard a supply of
motor car fuel. In one-instance, several barrels of gasoline were found in
a residence where an explosion
occurred, causing two fatalities and
injuring several firemen.
"Any quantity of gasoline that
v» might be reasonably stored after all
represents but a few additional miles
of travel. The safety of one's family
and property should be a greater consideration."
Arnold Renner, chief of the state
police fire division, - pointed out pro-
provisions of the state law involved in
attempting storage. In the first place,
he said; that placing gasoline in any
container other than a metal container
painted red and having the word "gasoline" plainly lettered upon it was a
Violation of regulations drafted March
12, 1942, Upon authority • of the state
legislature, to control storage of
inflammable liquids.
A provision of these regulations, he
said, is that no gasoline can be stored
0 in excess of five gallons in any dwell-

exclusively for the . storage of
flammable liquids; In'some instances,

INCREASED BOND
SALES REQUIRED
TO MEET QUOTA
Board of Supervisors Investing $30,000 in War
Savings Bonds
Reports from the various issuing
agents of Clare County as received by
Donald E. Holbrook, Chairman of the
County War Savings Committee, show
the following sales for the period of
'October 10th to 20th: Citizens State
Savings Bank, Clare, $2,812.50, Clare
Post Office $1,087.50, Harrison Bank,
$525.00, Harrison Post Office, $787.50,
Farwell Bank, $937.50, Farwell Post
Office, $187.50, Temple, $18.75, making
in all a total of $6,356.25 for the sale
of War Bonds for the second period of
October.
From the foregoing report, Clare
county appears to still be falling way
short of her quota for the month, and
if we are to meet it during the next
ten day period, it is necessary that
everyone cooperate by investing as
much of their income as possible in
the purchase of War Savings Bonds in
the next ten days.
The Board of Supervisors last Friday voted unanimously to purchase
$5,000.00 in Bonds during the month
of October, and to buy $5,000.00 in
Bonds each month thereafter for a
period of five months. This will help
raise the amount necessary to meet
our quota, but in order to be sure, we
must all take part and do our share
towards purchasing War Savings
Bonds,
BEEBE CHARGED
WITH NEGLIGENT
HOMICIDE HERE
Released on $1,000 Bond to
Reappear Before
Judge Hart
George Beebe, of Osceola county,
who was held at the county jail in
connection with the death of Albert
Leach, of Temple, who died Sunday
morning, October 11th, at the Cadillac
hospital, after apparently having been
struck by an auto, was released Friday
on a $1,000 bond to reappear in Circuit
Court before Judge Ray Hart, His
hearing was held before Justice Jennings Archambault of Clare, and Beebe
waived examination, on the charge of
negligent homicide.
As the story goes, Leach, eighty
year old resident of near Temple, was
found early Sunday morning, on the
roadside of M-61, just north of Temple,
in an unconscious condition and was
rushed to the Cadillac hospital where
he died a few hours later. Beebe
claims that as he drove down the road,
he thought his auto might have struck
something and drove a short distance
to turn around, and ^ecame stuck on
the roadside. In the,nieantinie, help
arrived on the scene, and State Police
rushed the unconscious man to the
hospital. Beebe was held the past
week for investigation.
CHILD WELFARE.
ENDANGERED AS
RESUCT OF WAR
Campaigns Commenced
Here to Support Boy
Scouting
Following a summer of outdoor
activity, with forty-five per cent of all
the Boy Scouts in this district spending at least one week at Camp Kepayshowink, the troops and packs have
completed reorganizational work and
are now concentrating on autumn and
winter programs.
There are ten Scout troops and two
Cub packs in the district with units
in Mt. Pleasant, Clare, Harrison, Far-
well, Weidman and Rosebush.
E, B. Clark, of Mt. Pleasant, is Field
Executive; John Rodabaugh, of Clare,
District Commissioner; Harley Holt,
Scoutmaster of the Clare troop; Paul
Lowrey, leader of Clare Cub Pack;
Samuel Morrison, Scoutmaster of
the Harrison troop; and >Neal Joslin
Scoutmaster of the Farwell troop.
It has been found through the years
that adequate finance is absolutely
essential to maintain high standards
in Boy Scout work. Information released recently shows that juvenile
delinquencies have doubled in England since the war began, and in our
own New York City juvenile crimes
have increased fourteen per cent. It
is believed that the causes of increased child delinquencies are due
to the fact that youth organizations
have been neglected and disrupted
since the war began. Why not help
prevent this by contributing to youth
organizations in our country.
The annual finance drives for the
support of the Scout troops in Harrison and Farwell commenced Thursday
noon of this week, with Paul Gibson
and Don Luce, respectively, acting as
chairmen; rand the campaign for the
Clare troop and pack will be commenced withn a few days, with the
local chairman yet to be selected.
All are urged to contribute what
they can in the interest of our boys'
welfare, when solocited.

Conservation Officer Wayne B. Tenant, for violation of the game laws.
They were arraigned before Justice
Jennings Archambault, October 13th,
each charged With carrying or transporting a shotgun with buck shot or
ball loads in an area frequented by
deer during the closed season to hunting deer.
All plead guilty and Germain and
Bendele were each assessed fines of
?25.00 ahd costs of $6.85 and Eichhorn a fine of $10.00 and costs of ?6.85.
They were given the alternative of
spending twenty days in the county
jail.
Germain and Bendele paid their
fines and costs, and Eichhorn costs,
and all were released. The latter was
shown leniency and his fine suspended because this was his first offense
ahd his family, including four small
children, were in urgent need of his
support.
Marilyn and Joan, nine and seven
year old daughters of Mr. and Mrs.
Arthur DeGeer, of Farwell, are still iu

pet lambs that they raised on a bottle
since spring and have each bought ai
$25 War Bond with the money they j
got from them. J
The girls say they are going to keep
on helping till the war is over aud
their Uncle Jack comes home. Each
girl rang the bank's "Victory Bell."
SUPERVISORS TO
PURCHASE $30,000
WORTHJF BONDS
Appropriate Funds to Buy
Dinners for Inductees
Lea vf_#, County
It was voted at the Clare County
Board of Supervisors meeting, at
Harrison this week, to purchase
?5,000 in War Savings Bonds in October and ?o,000 worth each month for
the next five months, or until $30,000
worth had been obtained.
The board appropriated §300 to provide farewell dinners for the boys inducted into the armed forces by the
local Selective Service Board. These
dinners are in charge of Willard Bicknell and George White, who were recently appointed to head the Service
Men's Club of the county. The funds
will be used only to purchase the
inductees' dinners and other expenses
will be cared for by the club.
The proposition of setting clocks
back one hour has been discussed by
the board but no action has been
taken in view of the fact that Eastern
War Time has been designated by the
Government for this area.
Some difficulty has been encountered by farmers whose helpers
could not get into the fields for work
until the middle of the forenoon,
according to Eastern War Time, aud
then wanted to quit work right on the
dot at night. It is hoped that all farm
laborers will cooperate with their employers during the national crisis.

Salvage All Tin
Cans and Store
in Dry Location
A letter from Michigan W.P.B. headquarters to County Salvage Chairman
Paul Gibson, states that tin can
salvage.is in effect for all of Michigan.
There will not be an immediate pick-
tip of salvaged tin but we are assured
that there will be by the time we have
any volume of cans saved. Tin cans to
be salvaged should be washed, the
label I'emoyed, also both ends. Place
the two end pieces in the body of the
can, place on the floor, step on it, and
there you have a salvaged tin can
ready to place lit a box or barrel in the
basement or some place well protected from weather, Since if takes'
several months to accumulate a sizeable quantity of salvaged tin cans,
the defining mills will be ready to
handle them by the time we have a
good supply of them.

This area is also the half that has more heavy farm scrap than the southern half and it cannot be collected during the four months of winter and early spring. Seventeen million tons of scrap iron are needed to keep our mills running through the winter and something must be done about it—now! The best grades of steel contain fifty per cent scrap and some of our electric furnaces use one hundred per cent scrap. New blast furnaces are being built to handle more pig iron, hut these are not scheduled for completion until next spring. There is as much aud more scrap on the farms as has been collected, as is evidenced by results of consecutive scrap drives in some localities and a search for the scrap in all communities, This scrap can be started on its way to the mills only through thorough organization and the wholehearted support of every loyal American citizen in an effort to find the scrap and to get it to the scrap piles where it can be taken out during winter weather. < A meeting was held at the Brewer _ Thompson Implement Store Monday evening, with George Lehr presiding, for the purpose of interesting every citizen in the country and surrounding communities in getting behind this vital war effort now while there is still time to get the scrap out before inclement weather and when the steel mills need the metal urgently. Plans were discussed and announced for an all out scrap metal drive of every organization and every person in the county. Township War Club Chairmen are the heads of scrap committees in each township and members of the County Committee. These men will work with the cooperation of the farmers in an effort to get every pound of scrap assembled on the farm ready to be moved by Saturday, October 31st.

CLARE TEACHERS AND SOLDIERS TO BE ENTERTAINED To Be Guests of Local Civic Groups Next Monday Evening NEED WATCHERS TO SPOT PLANES AT MCAL POST Register Consumers Power Office or Clare Hardware WARNS GASOLINE STORAGE ILLEGAL IN THIS STATE Commissioner Olander of State Police Says Don't Try to Beat Rationing Law violation and risk of insurance cancellation hang over the head of the motorist who undertakes the storage of gasoline, Commissioner Oscar G. Olander of the Michigan State Police warned this weelc •To supplement the four-gallons-per week supply in prospect when rationing is effective, many motorists are requesting special deliveries and storages of gasoline, state police have learned. f Commissioner Olander, as Are marshal of the state, declared such practice constituted a violation of state laws. Further, such action invalidates Are insurance contracts, he said. "Michigan should profit by the experiences of the east, where gasoline rationing has been in effect several months" Commissioner Olander said. "Many accidents and explosions have resulted from the attempt there of a, few motorists to hoard a supply of motor car fuel. In one-instance, several barrels of gasoline were found in a residence where an explosion occurred, causing two fatalities and injuring several firemen. "Any quantity of gasoline that v» might be reasonably stored after all represents but a few additional miles of travel. The safety of one's family and property should be a greater consideration." Arnold Renner, chief of the state police fire division, - pointed out pro- provisions of the state law involved in attempting storage. In the first place, he said; that placing gasoline in any container other than a metal container painted red and having the word "gasoline" plainly lettered upon it was a Violation of regulations drafted March 12, 1942, Upon authority • of the state legislature, to control storage of inflammable liquids. A provision of these regulations, he said, is that no gasoline can be stored 0 in excess of five gallons in any dwell- '' ing or in any other building not used exclusively for the . storage of flammable liquids; In'some instances, he' said, city ordinances limit the (Continued on Page' Twojr ' With the Civilian Defense personnel volunteering to take their turns in watching at the airplane spotting post atop the Hotel Doherty, in addition to the many hours spent at other duties, there still will not be sufficient persons to maintain the twenty-four hour watch required by the sixth corps area headquarters.

INCREASED BOND SALES REQUIRED TO MEET QUOTA Board of Supervisors Investing $30,000 in War Savings Bonds Reports from the various issuing agents of Clare County as received by Donald E. Holbrook, Chairman of the County War Savings Committee, show the following sales for the period of 'October 10th to 20th: Citizens State Savings Bank, Clare, $2,812.50, Clare Post Office $1,087.50, Harrison Bank, $525.00, Harrison Post Office, $787.50, Farwell Bank, $937.50, Farwell Post Office, $187.50, Temple, $18.75, making in all a total of $6,356.25 for the sale of War Bonds for the second period of October. From the foregoing report, Clare county appears to still be falling way short of her quota for the month, and if we are to meet it during the next ten day period, it is necessary that everyone cooperate by investing as much of their income as possible in the purchase of War Savings Bonds in the next ten days. The Board of Supervisors last Friday voted unanimously to purchase $5,000.00 in Bonds during the month of October, and to buy $5,000.00 in Bonds each month thereafter for a period of five months. This will help raise the amount necessary to meet our quota, but in order to be sure, we must all take part and do our share towards purchasing War Savings Bonds, BEEBE CHARGED WITH NEGLIGENT HOMICIDE HERE Released on $1,000 Bond to Reappear Before Judge Hart George Beebe, of Osceola county, who was held at the county jail in connection with the death of Albert Leach, of Temple, who died Sunday morning, October 11th, at the Cadillac hospital, after apparently having been struck by an auto, was released Friday on a $1,000 bond to reappear in Circuit Court before Judge Ray Hart, His hearing was held before Justice Jennings Archambault of Clare, and Beebe waived examination, on the charge of negligent homicide. As the story goes, Leach, eighty year old resident of near Temple, was found early Sunday morning, on the roadside of M-61, just north of Temple, in an unconscious condition and was rushed to the Cadillac hospital where he died a few hours later. Beebe claims that as he drove down the road, he thought his auto might have struck something and drove a short distance to turn around, and ^ecame stuck on the roadside. In the,nieantinie, help arrived on the scene, and State Police rushed the unconscious man to the hospital. Beebe was held the past week for investigation. CHILD WELFARE. ENDANGERED AS RESUCT OF WAR Campaigns Commenced Here to Support Boy Scouting Following a summer of outdoor activity, with forty-five per cent of all the Boy Scouts in this district spending at least one week at Camp Kepayshowink, the troops and packs have completed reorganizational work and are now concentrating on autumn and winter programs. There are ten Scout troops and two Cub packs in the district with units in Mt. Pleasant, Clare, Harrison, Far- well, Weidman and Rosebush. E, B. Clark, of Mt. Pleasant, is Field Executive; John Rodabaugh, of Clare, District Commissioner; Harley Holt, Scoutmaster of the Clare troop; Paul Lowrey, leader of Clare Cub Pack; Samuel Morrison, Scoutmaster of the Harrison troop; and >Neal Joslin Scoutmaster of the Farwell troop. It has been found through the years that adequate finance is absolutely essential to maintain high standards in Boy Scout work. Information released recently shows that juvenile delinquencies have doubled in England since the war began, and in our own New York City juvenile crimes have increased fourteen per cent. It is believed that the causes of increased child delinquencies are due to the fact that youth organizations have been neglected and disrupted since the war began. Why not help prevent this by contributing to youth organizations in our country. The annual finance drives for the support of the Scout troops in Harrison and Farwell commenced Thursday noon of this week, with Paul Gibson and Don Luce, respectively, acting as chairmen; rand the campaign for the Clare troop and pack will be commenced withn a few days, with the local chairman yet to be selected. All are urged to contribute what they can in the interest of our boys' welfare, when solocited.

Tenant, for violation of the game laws. They were arraigned before Justice Jennings Archambault, October 13th, each charged With carrying or transporting a shotgun with buck shot or ball loads in an area frequented by deer during the closed season to hunting deer. All plead guilty and Germain and Bendele were each assessed fines of ?25.00 ahd costs of $6.85 and Eichhorn a fine of $10.00 and costs of ?6.85. They were given the alternative of spending twenty days in the county jail. Germain and Bendele paid their fines and costs, and Eichhorn costs, and all were released. The latter was shown leniency and his fine suspended because this was his first offense ahd his family, including four small children, were in urgent need of his support. Marilyn and Joan, nine and seven year old daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur DeGeer, of Farwell, are still iu the fight for victory. Early this spring they turned in old license plates weighing more than I their combined weights, to help the j metal drive. Now they have sold their i pet lambs that they raised on a bottle since spring and have each bought ai $25 War Bond with the money they j got from them. J The girls say they are going to keep on helping till the war is over aud their Uncle Jack comes home. Each girl rang the bank's "Victory Bell." SUPERVISORS TO PURCHASE $30,000 WORTHJF BONDS Appropriate Funds to Buy Dinners for Inductees Lea vf_#, County It was voted at the Clare County Board of Supervisors meeting, at Harrison this week, to purchase ?5,000 in War Savings Bonds in October and ?o,000 worth each month for the next five months, or until $30,000 worth had been obtained. The board appropriated §300 to provide farewell dinners for the boys inducted into the armed forces by the local Selective Service Board. These dinners are in charge of Willard Bicknell and George White, who were recently appointed to head the Service Men's Club of the county. The funds will be used only to purchase the inductees' dinners and other expenses will be cared for by the club. The proposition of setting clocks back one hour has been discussed by the board but no action has been taken in view of the fact that Eastern War Time has been designated by the Government for this area. Some difficulty has been encountered by farmers whose helpers could not get into the fields for work until the middle of the forenoon, according to Eastern War Time, aud then wanted to quit work right on the dot at night. It is hoped that all farm laborers will cooperate with their employers during the national crisis.

Salvage All Tin Cans and Store in Dry Location A letter from Michigan W.P.B. headquarters to County Salvage Chairman Paul Gibson, states that tin can salvage.is in effect for all of Michigan. There will not be an immediate pick- tip of salvaged tin but we are assured that there will be by the time we have any volume of cans saved. Tin cans to be salvaged should be washed, the label I'emoyed, also both ends. Place the two end pieces in the body of the can, place on the floor, step on it, and there you have a salvaged tin can ready to place lit a box or barrel in the basement or some place well protected from weather, Since if takes' several months to accumulate a sizeable quantity of salvaged tin cans, the defining mills will be ready to handle them by the time we have a good supply of them.
