Regulations Concerning
Rural Mail Delivery
Stressed
Farmer Prevents
State Officials
Wrecking Cars
Highway Commissioner Charles M.
Ziegler recently commended Harry
Reeves, a quick thinking and generous
farmer living near Pontiac, who protected motorists during a recent storm
when a large tree fell across trunkline
M-59 west of Pontiac. Reeves dis
covered the tree and stood guard at
the scene with a lantern to warn motorists who otherwise might have
crashed .into the tree With serious results.
Among the cars he prevented from
crashing into the tree were those of
the Commissioner and Governor Harry F. Kelly.
According to instruc lions of the
Third Assistant Postmaster General:
Effective November 15, parcels not
exceeding eleven pounds in weight or
forty-two inches in length or seventy-
two inches in length and girth combined, containing articles requested
by the addressee, may be accepted for
mailing to Army personnel overseas.
Rural Delivery Service
The First Assistant Postmaster General has issued instructions that: In
order to facilitate the collection and
dispatch of mail matter on rural
routes, all first and third class mail
matter deposited in rural letter boxes
for collection by the carrier should
have stamps affixed at the proper
rate of postage. Rural carriers will
be provided with sufficient stamp
supplies for sale to patrons to accom-
*?W>**i3. oMectiye.. .^^w^w-.
' It is not the practice of the Post-
office Department to grant allowances
to rural carriers to cover increased
maintenance costs due to extra travel
to serve patrons residing along roads
which are rendered impassable by
snow. If excessive detours are necessary in order to effect delivery of mail
to such patrons, they should relocate
their mail boxes temporarily, receive
their mail through other patrons' boxes, or make some other arrangement
for receiving their mail until the
roads can be traveled.
Where weeds along a highway might
cause the drifting of snow, such weeds
should be removed before the beginning of the snow season. Patrons are
expected to see that roads are put in
such condition after heavy snows that
it will be possible for rural carriers
to travel them. Patrons should take
the matter up with the highway officials with a view to having arrangements made, wherever practicable, to
keep roads open to travel.
Patrons are required to keep- clear
the approaches to their mail boxes by
promptly removing obstructions, including snow, which render it difficult
or impossible for the carrier to deliver
mail to the boxes without alighting
from his vehicle. Unless the aproach-
es are cleared within a reasonable
time after heavy snowfalls, the delivery by carrier may be withheld temporarily until the approaches have
been cleared.
Carriers are not required to perform
service on foot when roads cannot be
traveled with the conveyance ordinarily used by them, but they will make
every reasonable effort to serve as
many of their patrons as possible
when above mentioned conditions
exist.   •

DR. J. G, WHITE
SERIOUSLY HURT
IN AUTO CRASH
Local Optometrist   Recovering From Injuries
at Hospital
Dr. J, G. White, the son of Mr.^and
Mrs. George White, of Clare, who was
recently honorably discharged from
the U, S. Army and formerly held
prisoner of war by the Germans, was
seriously injured between 5:00 and
6:30 o'clock Sunday morning when he
drove his car into the back end of a
large oil tanker on the curve of US-27
three and a half miles north of Harrison, .
Both vehicles were being driven
north and the'truck driver was shifting gears in going up the hill at this
location, the truck traveling slowly,
and Dr. White was apparently upon
the truck before he knew it was there,
because of the curve.
He was rushed to the Clare Hospital
where he was admitted at 6:55 o'clock
Sunday morning, and remained unconscious until 8:00 o'clock that evening, when he regained consciousness
and appeared to be in a normal condition except for his injuries. The
transfusion of blood at the hospital
relieved a condition brought about by
the loss of blood.
Therapeutic examination revealed
no internal injuries and x-ray examination on Monday indicated that there
were no fractures, but Dr. White was
suffering concussion of the brain,
shock, a severe cut over the left eye
extending into the eyelid, and badly
wrenched right arm and chest injuries. Fortunately the sight of the eye
was not, impaired.
The injured man's brother-in-law,
Don McDonald, and brother, Dale,
drove up south of Houghton Lake Sunday morning, where the father,
George, was hunting, and located him
by means of auto horn signals and
brought lnni"- back lo Clare.
It is .thought that Dr. White had
driven a party of hunters to the vicinity of Meredith Grade and was returning to a cabin at Long Lake when the
accident -occurred. The car was complexly de*?hetished; ill four-tires being blown out.-1-The accident was investigated by Sheriff Seaver Amble.
• His condition was reported as much
better Wednesday.

HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT
FERRIES ESTABLISH
RECORD AT STRAITS
32,000 Hunters in  14,500 Cars
Cross in Five Days
Before Season
Two records were set by the Michigan State Highway Department's ferry service at the Straits of Mackinac
in the five days preceding the opening of the 1945 deer hunting season.
More hunters were transported to the
Upper Peninsula and in faster time
than in any previous deer season, according to information received from
Highway Commissioner Charles M.
Ziegler.
Approximately 32,000 hunters ancl
14,500 hunters' cars and trailers were
carried between Machinaw City and
St. Ignace in. the five days, compared
to 10,173 vehicles and approximately
24,000 hunters in the same period of.
1941, last year before the war and
the record year prior to this fall.
Hunters crossing the Straits this
year were generous in then- praise for
the rapid transportation service provided by the Highway Department
ferries despite the huge number of
cars and passengers carried.
Nimrods well remember previous
years when cars have been, lined up
on the highways approaching Mackinaw City. In some years, there were
times when the line-up extended nearly to Cheboygan and it took nearly a
day of waiting to get on the "ferries.
The longest line-up during the peak
rush this year was 'about one-fourth of
a ,mile and during this time the longest
wait encountered was three and one-
half hours. This condition lasted only
a few hours. During the rest of the
hunter rush, cars were riot required
to wait beyond the docks at Mackinaw
City and the average time 'between
arrival of hunters and the time they
drove on the ferry boats was about
two hours. Five boats were operated
on a twenty-four hour basis, with departures every half hour.
The Department arranged to have
lunches served to hunters in their
cars while they waited on the docks.

Glare County Drive  Gets
Away to a Good
Start
The war is over—but that's not
the whole story. A huge task yet
lies before the American people and
the completion of this task necessitates the meeting of all quotas in the
Victory Loan, Here is why we must
have the Victory Loan:
To pay the bills for munitions and
materials already delivered and used.
To pay the cost of guarding Gei'-
many and Japan.
To pay for the care of our wounded
and disabled.
To pay off and provide benefits for
eight million or more veterans to be
discharged by next July.
To keep the lid on price inflation.
The Treasury must meet the enormous obligations incurred in the achievement of victory. Government expenditures are -being drastically reduced—and this will continue*. Despite this, however, the aftermath of
war carries grave responsibilities that
must not be shirked, and in facing this
task every Amercan's help is needed.
Before the end of 1945, the people's
Treasury must look to the people for
further support.
The Victory Loan Drive opened October 29 and extends through December 8. At the end of the first two ancl
a half weeks Michigan residents had
purchased nearly a third of the $161,-
000,000 bond goal allotted to individuals in the Victory Loan, according to
State Chairman "Frank N. Isbey.
The Ann Arbor Railroad Company
has allocated $70,000 for the purchase
of Victory Bonds in the various counties in which the railroad operates,
with $4,000 to be credited to Clare
county.
Individual purchases of E, F and G
Bonds during this period exceeded
purchases during the same period in
all seven previous drives in percentage
of the quota, with total sales cleared
to date of $52,809,291.
Yet we must face the fact that that
left approximately two-thirds \of the
quota yet to be subscribed "and we
must not relax our efforts .as Gallants
in selling bonds; or as purchasers in

HOW STATE PROVIDES
ASSISTANCE FOR AGED
NEEDING MEDICAL AID
Extent • of   Care   Decided   By
Physician Attending
Patients      <
States vary in methods ot providing
for medical care for recipients of assistance who cannot pay for the care
they require, and certain general procedures are ordinarily followed.
The State Welfare Commission decides the scope of services that may
be included. This may be, for example, care by a physician, dentist, hospital or clinic care; necessary drugs
and medical supplies; appliances such
as glasses, braces and dentures; laboratory tests; diagnostic services and
convalescent and nursing home care.
Standards of quality, quantity and
cost are usually established with the
help of representatives of the professional gorups who supply the service.
These are used as a guide in determining when and under what circumstances medical care or costs of care
will be provided.
People receiving Old Age Assistance
and in need of medical care are free
to chpose (heir physician.
Upon recommendation of the physician, "the cost of care required per
month is included in the Old Age Assistance check and the patient makes
his arrangement with the physician to
pay for his care, In no instance does
Social Security recommend a physician, restrict the recipient's Old Age
Assistance grant or urge medical
treatment.

FINANCE CAMPAIGN
OF CENTRAL MICHIGAN
HOSPITAL
Financial Help and Moral Support Solicited in
Area
. The Finance Campaign of Central
Michigan Community Hospital at Mt.
Pleasant is now in full swing and the
committee in charge report that it is
being well received all over the- area
served by the hospital. The minimum
quota set is $20,000, with the executive board expressing the hope that
the drive will raise double this amount
as it will be needed to meet probable
future deficits, buy needed equipment
and establish a.good reserve fund.
Over 7000 families in. the hospital
area have been mailed letters together with a booklet about our hospital
and a subscription card. This direct
mail campaign to every family living
in the towns of the area and on the
farms, have been done in the hope of
better informing everyone about their
fine hospital and to ask their financial
help and. nigral support.
All hospitals have operated under
severe hardships in recent years due
to shortages of help and equipment.
The rates of our hospital are very low
compared with all others, so that anyone, rich or poor, may have hospital
care. This has been the policy of the
Commonwealth Fund of New York,
wbo gave us the hospital in the first
place, and their policy of low service
charges has made it very difficult to
meet expenses. Therefore the need
for our drive for funds at this time.
This situation will gradually be improved as normal conditions prevail
again.
The hospital reports many patients
coming from Clare, Farwell, Harrison,
Beaverton, Coleman and other localities and it is hoped that a good response will come from the letters for
help. This is the first general call for
help from our hospital since it was
opened nearly three years ago and it
is important'that we give it the help
it asks for at -this time. Any one of
us, or our loved ones, may have to be
taken here at any moment. We should
keep it in strong operating condition
to do a good job, which it can if supported.
Recently all children of the sixth
and seventh grades of all Mt. Pleasant
schools, were taken oh a conducted
tour of the hospital, in order that they
might know first hand what the hospital is like arid to, dispell any fear hx
the child's mind about an institution
of this kind.
The Womans Auxiliary of the- hospital hope to work out a schedule if
possible to bring all school children
of the sixth and seventh grades of the
area in by bus "and a tour of the hospital as soon as it can be worked out.
The ardor of the deer hunting season
was constrained here Thursday afternoon of last week when it was learned
that our jovial local barber, Howard
"Chic" Brown, had been, shot through
the lower limb while hunting with
Barney Barnett, Elmer Bruckart and;
Jas. Tubbs on the fox farm south ot
Leota.
Barney had shot his buck at 8:30'
Thursday morning and returned it to
camp and was hunting with Chic at
about 3:00 o'clock Thursday aftern.opn-
when he heard him yell, and thinking-
Chic' had shot his buck, went oveV
where he was hunting. When he
neared Chic, he learned that he had
been shot in the calf of the right leg
midway between the ankle and knee,
by an unknown hunter.
Barney had shot about the time
Chic was hit, but shot practically at
right angles to the direction in which
Chic was hunting and the position-
in which Chic was standing and direction from which the shot that struck
Chic came made it impossible for Barneys bullet to have hit him.
- Chis was brought to the Clare Hos*
pital, admitted at 5:00 oclock Thursday afternoon, and he was taken to
the University Hospital at Ann Arbor that evening. '*,;
Surgical    examination   revealed   a*
compound fracture of the limb and the
injured member was placed in a cask
"When Mrs. Brown,, who accompan"?_c$
her husband to Ann. Arbor, returned"'
Monday afternoon,  Chic  was"- resting''
'quite comfortably, but he will be con- *
fined to the hospital about four weeks. -
Cowlas  in  Serious Condition
Glen Cowlas, who was shot through'
the left shoulder while hunting south-'
west of Houghton Lake Thursday'
morning of last week, was removed'
from the Clare Hospital to the Veterans Hospital, at Dearborn, following:
x-ray examination in the local hospf-'
tal which revealed that the shoulder-
blade and-npper arm bones were badly"
fracturM. He'-temarhs "in a, serious
condition' because Of the loss of con*
