THE STATE FAIR
Leases Half of Store.
How
It  Appeared  To  A
Who Visited It.
Pupil
In a recent issue we spoke of the
fact tb_t James DeGeer, a pupil of
Diet. No. 4, Sheridan, had received
the appointment from this county to
the State Fair by reason of having
tbe highest standing at tbe Eighth
Grade examination. This entitled
him to a free trip as the guest of tbe
Fair authorities and was a very high
honor indeed.    We asked bim to   tell
J. F. Tatman and   Son   in  another
' place announce a closing out sale   of j
j half   of  their stock—that made up of |
' shoes, furnishings, etc.
The north half of their big store \
bas been leased for five years to j
other parties, and wben this stock is j
i disposed of, tbey will confine them-1
\ selves exclusively to groceries. An- j
' nouncement will be made later re-
J garding the nature of the business to
I be conducted in tbe new store.
Mr. Tatman, Sr., hae been in tbe
i grocery business at the present loca-
1 tion for something over a  quarter   of
tbe Sentinel   readers,  especially   tbe ,
boys and girls, about his trip   and he f» century, and will no doubt keep up
_.. _.-«-ii- ~~~.-u_-!     Ha_«v_: the  same  high  standard  which has
resulted   In  the   flue   trade   tbat    be
has kindly complied.   He says

Dear Editor: —
You asked me to tell the
readers of tbe Sentinel of the trip I
won at tbe examination this laat
spring.
I left Clare Monday, Sept. "th, and
as soon as I reached Detroit tbere
were young men at tbe depot to meet
us and send ns fo the Fair grounds.
There we were directed to the
grounds occupied by the Boys' State
Fair School There we found Mr,
Field who was tbe manager and aisc
many assistants.
At 7:30 p m. we were taken to supper and at 8 a. m. we went to breakfast witb dinner at 1 p. m. Before
breakfast part of tbe boys went to
sweep the grandstand while tbe rest
picked np the o«per on the grounds
in front of the rouBic hall.
After breakfast we weie divided
into squads and went to see the stock
each squad going to diffe'rent animals.
It took us four days to see all the
stock.
One afternoon we were taken to
eee the races and one evening to see
the fireworks. One afternoon Mr.
Field went with us to Woodward
cemetery, and it is an afternoon I
will remember.
One mornine we went to see the
Sharpies milking; macbing in operation. There was a man to explain
things to us.
In tbe afternoon of the same day
Dr. Mumford taiked to us on dairy
cows and how they should be cared
for.
We slept in tents tbat held from
three to six boys. The tents were
placed in a square around the general tent which was large enough for
all of us to gather iu.
Every county in Michigan was represented by a boy. Some of the
boys had to leave Detroit Friday
morning so as to reach home by Saturday nigbt.
Any boy who wishes to see Detroit
and the State Fair will do well to
work and try to get tbe free trip,
and parents need not be afraid to let
their boys go as tbey are taken good
care of.
Now, boys, get busy and be tbe
boy to go to Detroit to the Boys'
State   Fair  Scbooi  next   September.
Having given you an outline of my
trip, I am.
Yours Truly,
James L. Degeer,

FALL SEASON IS HERE,
Autumn Styles   Are On   Display
At AH Stores.
Summer bas been loath to go tbis
year. People in this vicinity are
wont to consider that wben September arrives the summer season is
just about breathing its last. But
nineteen fourteen bas beea an exception and we have all been agreeably disappointed to have tbe beautiful weather continue all through
the month of September.
Tbis circumstance has had its effect on the merchant. He finds it
hard to lay away the goods that summer w.a*>'»r demnn*!**, ard rvjf in
their place garments thnt a--e meant
to keep out tbe chili breezes of November.    But   October    is   here   and
i neither merchant nor purchaser is
deluded into thinking that this    kind
! of weather will last much longer.
So onto the   shelves   and   into   the
i shop windows go the fall etyles and
it behooves the    wise   person   to   de-
| cidc quickly what he will wear, or
the weather man will have the laugh
on bim yet.

This is the last time we shall bave
the opportunity to make an announcement of any kind before the
Sentinel's big piano contest comes to
an end. For at three o'clock standard time next Monday, Oct. 5th,
the ballot box will finally close and
as soon after tbat as tbe judges, C.
W. Perry, A T. Stevens and Fred
Thompson, can count the votes, we
shall all know wbo becomes tbe possessor of a tine piano and wbo get
the other prizes that are offered by
tbe merchants.
If there is any special advice tbat
we wonld leave witb you before tbe
race comes to an end, it is to take no
chances of being beaten by a
noor « >ou come under the \->r .
You may have done good work all j
along through the contest, and there
seem to be no necessity for further
work at the end. But remember
these last-minute surprises are common in contests of this kind as well
as in horse races, and take nochance
of losing wben tbe prize is almost
within your reach.

The Michigan Produce Co. is busy

of visitors to this store.
County Scat Again Hurt.
With the change to the fall schedule on the Pere Marquette a week
ago, the Harrison "stub" was again
given its one run a day to tbe county
seat, going up at 6:45 at night and
reaching here at 9:55 in the forenoon.
Tbe change makes a great deal of inconvenience for people at thia end of
the line as well as the other, but we
will no doubt have to put up   with   it.
Humor has it that a gasoline motor
car wiil be installed on the Mt. Pleasant and Beaverton branches and also
perhaps on the Harrison branch.
But it is hardly likely that they will
start running before spring,  at   least.

It may happen that someone will   be j

' city council last   Friday   evening the
I budget for next vear   was   presented

taxes, and an ordinance providing for
next year's taxes wae tben   adopted.
Tbe amount of city tax   to  be   raised
tbis fall is Si'2933 (8 of   which   nearly
four thousand   dollars   is   for   Bcboo!
purposee.    This is S1500 00  less  tban
was   raised   last  year,   the    most   of
wbicb represents a lighter scbooi tax
this year.
Tbe city attorney rendered an
opinion in regard to the replatting of
Cherry Grove Cemetery, advising
tbat an orde. to tbat effect be secured from the Circuit Court before the
work is begun. Tbe matter was

it was tben decided to transform part

A majority of the officers and executive board of tbe County Snnday
Association with a number of interested visitors held a meeting in this
city oc Wednesday afternoon to plan
for tbe next meeting or tbe association. In tbe absence of Secretary
Lay, F. W. Weatberbead of Harrison was made temporary secretary.
A:, the es socia'ion had previously
been in-ired to hold the next se3«'on
ui this city, the tme of holding the
meeting and various other dctaiir,
were discussed. After due consideration it waa decided to hold the
meeting on the afternoon and evening of October 27 and continue
through the 2Sth, thus giving three
day sessions and one evening. The
president, T. U. Fuller, was authorized -o arrange a program, calling to
his aid any assistants he might desire. Miss Sadie Wilson of Harrison,
Mrs. Dr. Lamb of Farwell and N*rris
A. Elden' were appointed a committe
on music. A wish was expressed
by several that Rev. Johnstone of
Cadillac be one of the speakers secured. It was felt that no diffi-

The entertainment and exhibit
planned by the Herriek teachers was
successfully carried out on Friday-
afternoon and evening <Jf last week.
The exhibit of grains, fruits, vegetables, canned goods, flowers, etc ,
would have done credit to many a
county fair. In the evening a nhort
program of music and recitations was
carried out. A large ejuantity of ice
cream, candy, popcorn, etc., was
disposed of, something over twenty
dollars gross being realized.
The matter was a success from any
point of view and one of the best
things connected witb it is'the fact
tbat the people meet together and
get acquainted witb tbeir teachers.
If tbere ia any otber school in tbia
vicinity which makes a similar attempt we bave not beard of it. Tbe

Dear Sir: —
On behalf of tba members
of over Board, I wish to extend to
yoa and tbe citizens ef your city,
oar -most sincere appreciation over
tbe courteous reception tendered as
wben visiting your city very recently.
Although we visited several cities
with a much larger population than
Clare, it was gratifying to note tbat
your city received us with the best
spirit of  any town on our itinerancy.
The friendly spirit of your mer-
■chants will long be remembered by
the members of our party, who k&ve
spoken in most praising terms over
the progressiveneas of your city.
At a meeting of oar Executive
Committee held Monday, I wae instructed to have you extend to the
business men of your city a most
cordial invitation to visit Toledo, as
guests of our Board, at such time as
they may find it possible.
If you contemplate taking this outing this fall, t wouid suggest that
you set a time prior to tbe latter part
of October, as after the month of October the weather is very undepen-
dable.
Yours very truly,
The Wholesale Merchant*)' and
Manufacturers' Board.

LIGHTING FRANCHISE.
Expires Next February.     Plans
Made For New One.
The contract which the Consolidated Light Power Co. has for lighting
the city of Clare, and for furnishing
light and power wittiin tbe city will
expire in February, 1915.
Tbis firm, and also the Callam Estate through its attorney Jobn F.
O'Keefe, have applied to the Common
Council for a franchise, though the
matter bas thus far progressed only
far -enough to have a committee, consisting of Mayor Adams and Aldermen
Lewis and Smalley appointed to look
into the question of accepting a new
franchise
Tbe proposition is one tbat should
receive careful consideration, and
the people of the city should be kept
informed of tbe terms, conditioos,
etc., under wbicb any firm proposes
to furnish current to the corporation
and to individuals, so that tbey may
vote intelligently when a franchise is
presented for tbeir approval.
The prevailing opinion about town
is that too high a rate is charged
here for private lighting, and if this
is a fact, no franchise should be accepted unless its terms are favorable
to the consumer aa well as fair to
tbe producer.

FAREWELL RECEPTION
Tendered Rev. Irwin And Family
Wednesday Evening.
The parlors of the Methodist church
on Wednesday evening were well
filled with friends of Rev. Irwin and
family who bad gathered to show
tbeir respect and esteem on tbe eve
of tbeir departure from this eity. It
waa not confined to attendants of
the (Tiurcb by any means and many
were preeent from th" surrounding
country.
After a social hour, a short pro-
gi _m consisting of instrumental trios
by Mr. and Mrs. Adelbert Forbes and
Re>ss Carson, solos by Miss VanLeu-
ven and Seymour Andrus, duet by
little Marian and Mildred Reading,
recitations by Ivah Fox and Hazel
D' e . hripf /. m"rks by Mrs. Z. Dyer
ani t-,'.:e:ji \l !. ns an i -rire i xiund-
ed .-t-iudie.;. o> Kev. Kn gut. At tie
close Rev. Irwin briefly responded,
expressing his high appreciation of
the sentiments expreosed and the
kindly remembrance that himse'f and
family wouid ever feel for the people
of Clare. At tbe close light refreshments were served.
Rev. Irwin bas been here two years
and tbe cbang& came as a distinct
surprise, as nearly everyone had assumed as a matter of course tbat he
would return. lhat he goes away
will be sincerely regretted by a host
of friends. Personally we are very,
very sorry to see him go.
Mr. Irwin is essentially a student
and thinker and his sermons are never common plic9. And be preaches
always a practical, every-day religion, emphasizing ever the gospel
of service.
As a man and citizen Mr. Irwin
will be remembered as one who bas
high ideals of civic duty and fearlessly strives to realize tbose ideals
in everyday iife. It is not in his nature to complacently witness law violation and he bas little use for officials wbo treat tbeir official oath as a
joke. Hie part in tbe local optio&
figbt last spring is well known.
Night and day he labored to bring:
the matter to a successful issue. To
him the county owes a larger debt of
gratitute tban many know.
To us he will ever loom up as a
great moral hero to whom fear is unknown and who never swerves a hair
from the path of duty as Ire sees it..
We join in wishing bim and his loved
ones God- speed wherever tbey may
go.
High School Beats Farwell.
