The annual dance recital of pupils
Of Miss Joanne Richard was presented
Tuesday evening to an audience that
overflowed the Clare High School auditorium. The theme of this year's entertainment was in the nature of an
around the calendar revue which featured important occasions of each
month and season Of* the year.
The pupils from the Clare, Harris-
son, 'Mt. Pleasant and other schools
presented dexterous tap dancing routines, graceful ballet numbers, skillful
acrobatic dancing, and intricate baton
twirling, intermingled" with timely
musical  scores  and  amusing  skits.
The wee little pre-school children
won the hearts of the audience by
their demure manner and cute dancing, while the older pupils pleased
the spectators with their grace and'
skill as they interpreted the more
difficult numbers.
The. bright eyes of the youngsters
bespoke their pride in their accomplishments and the dazzling costumes
vying with those of sheer beauty told
of the painstaking work of many
mothers and seamstresses in making
them.
It would be impossible to describe
each pupil and their attractive costumes as the wee youngsters through
those of high school age presented
their solo and group numbers, but
the primness of the little dancers and
skillful adeptness of the older ones
held the rapt attention of the audience
for more than two hours.
The orchestra, including Martha
McKinnon, pianist; Louise Wear, violinist; Bernie Mayhew, , trumpeter;
and Howard Everts, drummer; added
much to the performance and Mrs.
Wear played a pleasing violin solo,
accompanied by Lucille Davis, at the
piano. The music for one number was
written by Mrs. Iyone Gorr, of' Glare.
Miss Richard regrets that she was
unable to present her own number
on the program, but her physician
would not permit it- 'because of a
torn'knee ligament she sustained ip,
training the cast,
It is- hoped that the revue may be
presented in Clare and also in Mt/
Pleasant, next year, to accommodate
the many -who are interested in attending.
Vernon Miller, 16,^ 9C Clare, R-4,
suffered a broken neck when the
tractor he was steering overturned in

half east of Clare at 7:30 o'clock

A number of Clare people who are

the Hotel Doherty Monday evening,
May 24, for a pleasant social evening,
including impromptu solo and tgroup

The organization of a chapter of the
S.F.E.B.S.Q.S.A. in this community was
discussed and steps have been taken
for this purpose. The local chapter
would include singers and those who
like singing, from Clare and the surrounding communities.
Quoting from a letter from Associate, Secretary W. L. Otto, "Any man
who has music, or an appreciation of
music in his soul, is likely to get an
added thrill from carrying a part in
a quartet, either impromptu or permanent, or from being a member of an
informal chorus singing barbershop
harmony under competent leadership.
Done with congenial men and in
Wholesome surroundings, it can very
easily be an extremely elevatiitg and
inspiring influence on his life. Incidentally, some of our members are
not singers but enjoy listening to
good music. They share the inspiration Of it with those who do the
actual singing."
Several local people have already
indicated that they Wilt become members 'of the local chapter,, but twenty
members are required to securg, a
charter,   * . • ■
Another meeting will be held at
Hotel Doherty at 8; 30 o'clock next

DRIVING AWARD
Great  Lakes  Greyhound Lines
Recognize Ten Years

Ferdinand Wieferich, a resident of
this city the past nine, years, has
been signally honored by the "Great
Lakes Greyhound Lines by the presentation of a beautiful twenty-one
jewel Hamilton gold watch, in recognition of ten years of driving service
without*an aceident.
Ferd was first engaged by the Foster Bus Lines in the Alma-'St. Johns

Clare when Foster bus service was
extended to this city. He has been
employed by the Greyhound lines
since they purchased the Foster lines.
This fine driving record, ^established
in good weat-her and bad and at times
in extremely heavy traffic, dates back
more than ten years, as he has never
had an aceident in his sixteen years
of bus driving and has received previous safe driving awards from the
Foster lines.
He was also presented with a fine
new uniform as a part of the award,
but prizes most highly the watch with
the following inscription on the back:
"Presented to Ferdinand Wieferich in
Recognition of Ten Years Safety
