WHITES BUILD
NEW GREENHOUSE
ON EAST SIXTH
Twenty years ago this fall the
Whites built a small greenhouse,
eighteen by fifty feet, and a work and
sales room eighteen by eighteen feet.
This made it possible for the people of
Clare and vicinity to buy fresh cut
flowers the year around.
Due to increasing demand for flowers and plants, they decided that the
first greenhouse was not large
enough. So six years ago, that building was dismantled and a new modern
house twenty-eight by one hundred
and ten feet was erected in its place
along with two smaller houses giving
them four thousand square feet under
glass1.
This fall, a new flower shop has
just been completed. This new building covers the flower shop, designing
room and office, two supply rooms,
boiler room and coal bin. This new
addition is sixty-six feet long and
thirty feet* wide and is' built of crete
and concrete blocks. The designing1
and sales room has an area of nine
hundred square feet, and has nine
windows-, five by, six feet along the
north" and weBt side, thus providing
plenty of light. The floor is dark
green concrete and the side walls of a
lighter green. The ceiling is ivory.
A counter separates the designing
room from the sales room* A supply
room adjoining the sales and work
room is sixteen by twenty-one feet.
With this hew- building, the Whites
are able to carry a much larger stock
of merehaiidifie,
Mi*, and MrB, White believe that
they have as fine a floral establish*
nieht as can be found in Central
Michigan and they invite the public
to come and see their nevr building.

which showed that Naumes was shot
at close range."

testified that he responded to a call
to the Naumes office at 2:13 p.m.,
found Mrs. Naumes .screaming, "He's
upstairs and he has got a gun." Decker said, "I found Naumes on the floor
of thei inner office, saw that he was
still alive, couldn't find the gun, and
looked up and saw the defendant with
the gun in his belt." Decker continued,
"I asked for it and he gave it to me.
I asked him why he did it, and he
said, 'He gave me a bum deal.'"

"The House On the Hill" Fairyland Of
Twinkling Lights At Christmastime
Up at "The House- On' the Hill",
where East Fifth Street changes to
Rainbow drive, lives a man known to
young and old alike as, "Charlie"
Strange, whose hobby is to convert
his home and grounds into a veritable
fairy land of twinkling colored lights
at Christmas time.
' As one approaches the grounds,
they notice from afar the 50- foot flag
pole strung with lights, and then live
evergreen' trees. 16 in all, from 15
to 30 feet tail, lighted with hundreds
of bulbs, The '-grand stand" come-
in for its share of decorating too, as
well as the end of the barn.. Here
there is a lighted Santa Claus and a
rainbow in "all. the. colors of the
rainbow".
There are two decorated1 Christmas trees that may be' seen through
the windows of the home and lights
strung along the edges of the metal
awnings Of the' six gabled house.
Charlie's latest ambition is.to place
arches of lights from the endsof the
gaMe*- to the chimney--—time will telh
Charlie says he don't know just
how many lights there are, even if
he did put them up- himself with
improved methods, but there are over
2,000 9% watt lamps, controlled with
19 switches. Some of the lights are
on house switches, but there is an
electric metei> just, for the outside
tree lights, and if one has ever seen
a spinning top he knows what that
meter acts like when the lights are
all on. '.■-..'. *
The lights were first turned on for
this season, Thursday night of last
week, by Mayor Albert Haley,
Hundred^ of cars passing on XJS-10
and city streets:,drive into the driveway to see the lights and. Charlie
says that they are welcome to drive
around the place all they like, and to
make a personal call on him if they
wish.
Cars com© from miles around to
see the magnificent spectacle at "The
House On the Hill", and a'night or
two ago a group of folks from Mt.

retired for the night, to turi- the lights
on for them. -

whenever they please, in search of
the toothsome quarry.
Friends and neighbors may hunt as
they wish, clean their rabbits and
bring them to the Thayer Locker
