Leonel Green Gets His Deer
Leonel Green was the first bow and
arrow hunter in this vicinity to get
liis deer in the 1948 season. He
brought down his quarry at 5:30
o'clock Tuesday morning, near Higgins Lake, with a light weight hunting arrow, with smooth spade point.
The deer ran several hundred yards
but was. overtaken easily, the arrow
entering below the left front shoulder
and coming out just below the right
hip joint, and the broken arrow was
recovered.
The young doe weighed from 90 to
100 pounds and Leonel's friends are
dreaming of s.ucculent venison steaks.

The Clare Junior Varsity got off to
a very good start this year by winning
two games. Last Thursday night they
defeated Mt. Pleasant High School's
"B" team by the score of 20-8 on the
Clare field. The Clare team started
rolling in the first quarter by getting
the ball and marching down the field
for a touchdown which Musser made
from the six yard line.
The Clare second touchdown came
in the second quarter when Captain
Earl Bellowi* passed to Pulcifer for a
seventeen yard touchdown. Driving
over for the extra point was Pulcifer,
which made the score 13-0 in favor
of Clare, but towards the end of the
second quarter Mt. Pleasant got their
safety by getting Bellows behind his
goal, where he was trying to punt,
and that ended the half.
The height of the second half was
Musser making his second tally for
the night, going over again from
afautit th- Seven yard line, Again
Pulcifer went over for the extra point.
Mt. Pleasant made their tally on a
nice pass in the fourth quarter.
The Clare line, which our school
should be proud of, led the attack
by doing some nice blocking and
tackling all through the game. Clare
outgained Mt. Pleasant by the total
of Clare 278 yards and Mt. Pleasant
171 yards.    -   ■
Junior   Varsity   Beats   Shepherd.
Clare's Junior Varsity remains undefeated as they picked up a 26-6 victory over Shepherd Tuesday night,
October 5th, at Clare.
In the first quarter Earl Bellows
ran ten yards for Clare's first touchdown. The kick after the touchdown
was no good. Later in the first quarter Johnny Musser ran 70 yards off
tackle for another six points, Frank
Powers made the extra point.
In the third quarter, Dave Border
ran fifteen yards around right end
and fumbled the ball in the end zone.
Frank Powers recovered the ball so
the touchdown still counted for Clare.
The extra point was no good. For the
fourth touchdown of the game, Frank
Powers ran thirteen yards off tackle.
The extra point was made by Musser. In the fourth quarter Shepherd
ran one yard against Clare's second
team reserves for their only touchdown.
The fourth quarter was costly for
Clare. Johnny Musser broke his collar bone  and  Jakie Walker injured
his ankle.

Taxes in Michigan
It is important that the electors
understand clearly that the" vote on
Propositibn Number 2 on the November ballot is in no way a vote for or
against the repeal of the sales tax
itself. It is solely a vote on whether
or not we should continue to require,
the use of part of the sales tax money
for our city and village governments
and schools. The sales tax will continue regardless of the outcome of
the November election, and caling
Proposition 2 the "sales tax amendment repeal" vote is confusing matiy
voters who think they can vote to
repeal the tax itself.
What is to be voted on is the repeal of an amendment passed by the
voters in 1946. This amendment is
bringing bur local government and
our local schools substantial sums
from the sales tax, and should not be
repealed unless we" are prepared to
raise this sales tax money through
more local taxes. Therefore, to vote
against the repeal, it is necessary to
vote NO on Proposition Two,

The Michigan Public Service Com-*'
mission approved Wednseday an
$8,217^000 increase in Michigan Bell
Telephone rates that will affect some
1,600,000 patrons in the state with
an estimated average annual increase
of $4.00 per customer. The increase
•will become effective when Michigan
Bell files revised rate schedules con-
fbrminfe with the ruling, whieh it is
expected it will require at least a
month to prepare*.
The P.S.C. ruling was announced
following lengthy hearings and cost
study commencing last year and the
order will allow Michigan Bell * an
estimated $5,950,000 additional net
income after taxes have been deducted. With *a' plant investment of
$215,475,000, the increase will provide
a six per cent profit, considered to be
a fair amount by the Public Service
Commission.
Schuyler Marshall, P.S.C. member
said, "The Commission recognized
Michigan Bell has been and is engaged in an extensive construction
program in an effort to supply telephone service for all who desire it.
"The Commission did not wish to
fix the company's rate so low as to
barely avoid confiscation of the company's property. It did attempt to
fix a return which is reasonable and
one which would afford the company
sufficient net earnings to enable it
to attract the capital necessary to
carry on its vast expansion program."
Concurrent with the rate increase,
patrons will benefit by the company's
•proposed extended area service which
was recently approved by the Public
Service  Commission,
Clare patrons will be provided service with Beaverton, Coleman, Far-
well,. Harrison, Rosebush and Gladwin exchanges; Farwell customers
with Clare, Rosebush and Harrison
exchanges; and Rosebush patrons
with Clare, Coleman and Farwell exchanges;   without toll  charge.
Clare patrons in the proposed flat
rate area would be served with 2,725
phones*as compared with-the present
988; Farwell 1650 'as compared with
the present 189; and Rosebush with
1691 as compared -with the present

Temple Nazgrenes
To Celebrate Church
Anniversary Sunday
On October 10 the Church of the
Nazarene located at Temple will join
a churchwide celebration of the Fortieth Anniversary of the organization
of the church of the Nazarene as a
protestant   denomination.
The union df separate groups! from
the West, the East, and the South
took place" at Pilot. Point, Texas, in
1908 under the leadership of Dr. P. F.
Bressee, of Los Angeles, Rev. Howard Hopple, of New York City, and
Rev. C. B. Jemigan, of Texas.
At the ttime of the organization in
1908 there were 10,000 members scattered widely in 228 churches with a
few missionaries in a half dozen foreign areas. At that time the Sunday
School Department had an enrollment
slightly in excess of 6,000 and the
total giving of the church was $140,-
000. -Forty years later (1948) the
Church of the Nazarene had grown
until its membership has reached
210,000 representing 3,350 churches in
the United States, Canada, and the
British Isles, with nearly 200 missionaries in 28 foreign areas. The Sunday School enrollment has advanced
to 400,000 arid the total giving for all
purposes during 1947 was more than
$44,000,000, making the per capita giving for the year $90.28.
The Church of the Nazarene, whieh
maintains its international headquarters in Kansas City, Missouri,
supports six major colleges in the
United States, one in Canada, one in
the British Isles, and the "Nazarene
Theological Seminary, graduate school
for ministers and missionaries. In
addition, "Showers of Blessing" radio
voice for the Church of the Nazarene,
is heard over 150 radio stations and
by short wave around' the world.
The local Church of tfye Nazarene
at Temple was. organized in 1939, according to Rev. Mrs. Erma Pierce,
pastor of the congregation. Special
anniversary services honoring the
founding of the denominatibn will be
held next Sunday. The public is cordially invited to attend.        '

STAFFING OUR
HOSPITALS WITH
CAREJWjPORTANT
Nurses    Association    Executive
Addresses Clare-Isabella
Group September 29
"Unless the same carezul- planning
goes into the staffing of Michigan hospitals that is going into their expansion, the average patient will get less
care than he does now," warned Hul-
da Edman, R .N., Lansing, executive
secretary of the Michigan State Nurses Association. She addressed a meet-
ing of the Clare-Isabella District, at
Mt. Pleasant, September 29.
"No matter how many beds are provided, each one that is occupied requires service by some combination
of professional and practical nurses,
ward* maids, orderlies, and attendants," she pointed out. "The 'nurse
shortage' is actually a shortage of all
these employees, if thefr .numbers and
quality are to keep pace with the expansion of buildings."
Hospitals which have enough capable executives to plan a wise division of duties among various types of
employee, and which earnestly de_li*e
to provide good working conditions,
are having the least trouble instilling
their positions, she declared. "^
"Nurses are human beings, as well
as members of a profession dedicated
to the health of the community," she
stated. "Rising prices affect them
just like other people. Nurses get
tired, they want a chance to do good
nursing, they need time for rest and
for social life. They want a voice in
the assignment of their duties and the
conditions under which they work,
whether in hospitals, public health agencies, industries, or private homes."
Staff councils, through which nurses can voice their own desires to the
management and can in turn learn to
share more of management's problems
were urged by Miss Edman as one
measure to make nurses happier on
their jobs.
"Practical nurses are an important
part of the nursing team," she continued. "Michigan now has seven
training centers, with a capacity for
giving 800 new students annually a
year's preparation, and we haye nearly 1000 experienced practical" nurses
who have met the requirements for
membership in the Michigan Practical
Nurses Association. It will become
easier to recruit and train practical
nurses when their status is clearly defined by law and when those who are
qualified are protected against the
use of the same title by the untrained. '< Efforts to provide a state licensing law for practical nurses are now
under way in order that the public,
as well as practical nurses, may be
protected." 0 ^
Opportunities for young women to
enter nursing have never been more
attractive, Miss Edman declared. At
the same time, competition of other
occupations has never been heavier
except during the war.
"Michigan nurses are actively recruiting young women for schools of
both professional and of ipractical
nursing," said the speaker. "In fact,
we challenge any other group to show
a better record of bringing' qualified
young people into their occupation.
With the help of hospital administrators, physicians, and interested community leaders, we are getting more
new students this year than last.
But if we are to recruit them, hold
them until graduation, and then keep
them active in nursing, we need the
understanding and help of the public.
