HELD IN CLARE FOR
RUSSELL Y. ALWOOD
Laid at Rest in Surrey Town-
ship Cemetery Friday,
January 1st
)
Russell Vern Alwood was born in
Dekalb county, Indiana, March 27,
1892, and died at his home in Farwell,
Decemer 28, 1942, at the age of fifty
years, nine months and one day.
At the age of thirteen years, he
came with his parents, four brothers
and three sisters, to Clare county,
Michigan, and the family settled on
the Comer farm at Brown i Corners.
Here in the little country school Russell received his education. In his
late teens, while attending revival
meetings conducted by several ministers and members of the United Brethren Church, the young man was converted to work for Christ and united
with the church of that faith.
On August IS, 191S, he was united in
marriage to Catherine Jackson. This
was during World War No. 1, and
Russell expected to go into service in
that war, but the signing of the
Armistice prevented that step.
Six children were born to this
couple, three boys and three girls,
Richard, now with the army in Australia, Donald, just having been taken
into the army and now at Ft. Custer,
Helen, attending college at Huntington, Indiana, Orma, Gladys and
Robert, still in school.
About fourteen years ago the family
moved to a farm in Maple Grove, then
to Farwell three years ago. Failing
health and a bad heart condition, has
prevented Mr. Alwood from doing
manual labor for some time, but he
always was ready and willing to assist
a friend whenever possible and did
much to keep the home cheerful when
Mrs. Alwood was forced to be absent.
He loved his family dearly and they
loved dad, Their friends, both old and
;young, always found a. welcome at the;
'Alwood home, and small children and
-all looked to "Doc" ifor sympathy, He
never forsook the %ork of the Master,
attending church when possible, help,
ing in Boy Scout work and'other.good
causes.
A sudden heart attack took him
away, while working about the home
on Monday afternoon, December 28th,
Funeral services wer.e held at the
Thurston Funeral Homfe in-Clare, Firi-
Robert Pryor, the eleven year old
son of Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Pryor, o£
this city, was taken to the Clare Hospital Thursday afternoon of last week,
suffering severe burns which he sustained while at play at the local plant
of the Michigan Consolidated Gas Co.
Robert is reported to have opened
an iron door of a compartment enclosing a gas jet, which is burned during
the winter months to reduce the gas
pressure to a suitable degree for
domestic use in Clare, when in some
way an explosion was caused.
Examination at the hospital revealed
third degree burns on the side of his
face and Ip.ss severe burns on his left
hand. Fortunately his eyesight was
not impaired. The fact that he was
wearing a heavy winter cap and mack-
iuaw coat saved him from more
serious burns. He was reported to be
convalescing satisfactorily Thursday
afternoon.
'.' Local gas company officials report
that this equipment has been in use
here for eight years without mishap
and that they cannot see how the explosion occurred unless lighted with
a match. The compartment is now
securely locked.
Ernest Chaffee Burned
Ernest Chaffee suffered second degree burns on the calf of his right leg
and less severe burns on the calf of
his left leg, on New Year's Day, while
employed at the sugar factory at St.
Louis.
Two valves on hot water and steam
lines, with short lengths of hose attached, are placed closely side by side
in the plant and when Mr. Chaffee
desired hot water he accidentally
turned on the steam valve. The
vibration of the steam pressure in the
hose caused it to spray the backs of
his legs with steam. The fact that
the hose lay behind him saved him
from more serious injury.
He was confined to the home of his
daughter and husband, Mr. and Mrs.
Howard Richter, in St. Louis, for five
days, before he cotiU be brought to
his home here. He is recovering satisfactorily, but will be under the care
of Dr. B. J. Sanford for about two
more weeks.

This Year
Thousands of Mchigan hunters wishing to start the new year with a clean
slate still have one little chore to do
before they consider the 1942 season
just a memory, like the ones that preceded it—and that is sticking one-cent
stamps on their game kill report cards
and mailing them.
Early check-ups showed the rate of
return thus far is low—lower than a
year ago when it was, in turn, lower
than the preceding year, Laggard
hunters have until February 15 to file
their game kill report cards.
These report cards, which are printed as ipart of each hunting license,
must he detached and mailed to the
state conservation department at Lansing, even though the licensee's luck
was so: poor he shot no game, trapped-
no furbearers.

The C. O. Bosworth ramily, of Harrison, has made an outstanding production record during this war year,
ra.'sing 1,700 turkeys, 2,500 broilers,
and 1,000 pullets. They have 1,500
ycung chicks now and 160 laying hens.
This has been a big productioin along
with the milking of their five cows,
Mr. Bosworth lives two miles north
and four miles east from* Harrison on
an eighty acre farm. He is sixty-two
years old and his wife has been an
invalid, unable to walk, for the past
two years. A twenty-four year old
daughter, Doris, is at home and helps
with the care of the mother. They
have a son, Henry, twenty-six, who
has been in the navy since last May.
The twins, Paul and James, are
twenty-two years of age and are the
main source of manpower on this farm
program. They helped to harvest
forty-five acres of hay on nearby land
to suppiy stock feed as only seventeen
acres are crop land on the home* farm.
Norman, a fourteen year old, helps out
on this program.
They have been building a poultry
house, 24x80, which" is about completed
