In tlie nightcap Temple slugged out

BELOVED PIONEER
PASSES AWAY AT
DAUGHTER'S HOME
Mrs. Hose Sutherland Laid At
Best In Cherry Grove
Cemetery Sunday
One of Clare's earliest settlers
passed to her reward when Mrs. Rose
S. Sutherland died at the home of her
daughter and husband, Mr. and Mrs.
Homer Douglas, at 1:00 o'clock Thursday afternoon of last week. This
highly respected elderly lady had
been in failing health for several
years and confined to the Douglas

HEAVY TRAFFIC     \
INDICATED FOR
HE WEEK END
p-
Com. D. S. Leonard Increasing
State Police Patrol And
TJrges Caution .
With all indications pointing to the
heaviest traffic on record ovver the July
Fourth week end, Commissioner Donald S. Leonard has placed State
Police on extra patrol duty from Friday afternoon to early Tuesday morning. .     .
At the same time, the commissioner made an urgent plea to motorists
to use e*ery precaution in driving!
Whenever possible an early start
should be made to avoid congested
traffic and plenty of time should .be
taken on the way.
"We hope drivers will even improve
the four-day Mejnorial week-end
record," Leonard said. "There were
22 persons killed on Michigan, highways over the four-day Fourth of July
period last year. Over last Memorial
week-end, when traffic-was the highest on record, 15 persons lost their
lives in highway accidents. .Jgain
comparing this improvement, an average of 17.2 persons were killed each
three-day week-end during ihe hionths
of June, July and August of last year.
"This experience shows that casualties can be reduced when drivers
try to do a good job, but 15 lives are
still too high a price to pay for carelessness. Speeding too fast for' conditions was a contributing cause in six
of the 14 fatal accidents, and violations and negligence were also responsible for most of the others.
"Check the car to see that it is in
good operating condition. Don't
speed. Don't cut in and out of traffic.
Stay in line until passing is safe.
Don't drink if you drive. And finally,
drive as if your life depended on it—
because it does."
