Twill Be Happy Christmas For them
Winning Sweepstakes tickets
could hardly have been more sur
prjshig. or more welcome 'than
checks which were h^uSed to three
Clare 'Manufacturing company employees Tuesday for their shares
of earnings, froni time and material savings resulting from their im;
dividual - suggestions.
Jay DeCamp, of Route 3, Clare
coljected the largest of the three
checks as he pocketed $1,074.35,
DeCamp's idea for the use of
an e'ud mill in place of a spot fac-
ingQtool has been respousible for
the saving of. many castings, and
for really big savings- in tools
which had been breaking on the
job before the spot facer was replaced.
.Together w.ith $20.2,55..which 1/d;
been, paid DeCamp previously for
prior savings credited to the. same
suggestion, his earnings total
$1,276:90 in return for his'unusual;
interest in improving methods on'
his job.
Bob Leposky's check -for $600.65
was next highest. This qheck represented, a pay-off for the success
of Leposky's idea to.'eliminate one
■milling machine operation on the.
throttle-body casting for the carburetor, He lives on Beaverton
"Road, Route 1, Clare.
Lyle Arftientrout, of Clare'Route;
3 collected $298.75 for his suggestion which was to revise, a reaming
operation, _;
All three of the men are married,   "
Plant Manager Earl Morgan
awarded the checks in an informal,
"ceremony" at 3 o'clock when the
work shifts were changing at the
plant. To make the event as much
of a happy surprise as could bo,
tha three men were asked to step
into the office, - without the
slightest hint of what was waiting'
for them there. The awards drew
gasps of astonishment from the
lucky three.
DeCamp's earnings were the
largest" paid any individual since
the start of the Clare Manufacturing employee suggestion program
which has been in operation since
January 1954. In all, the company
said  $4,500.00  has  been, paid  for

Christmas Fun Was A
Simple Pleasure In 1855
Ever wonder whether kids had
as much fun at Christmas-time a
hundred years ago as they do now?
There may have'been fewer tinsel trappings but the fun was all
there from the gift-giving to the
hilarity of the sleigh ride after the
big dinner with friends, according
to a diary kept by Elizabeth Gur-
ney (Taylor) and now in the possession of The University of Michigan'Historical Collections.
Elizabeth, who lived on a farm
in St. Joseph County, near Constantino and Three Rivers, kept a
journal which filled thirteen large
volumes and covered thirty-three
years of her life.
"Snowing again," she wrote the
day before Christmas, 1855, when
she was fifteen. "Just the right
kind of weather to suit me. When 1
got to school this morning, although the last bell had rung, nof
a girl was there, but they came in
soon. Tonight after scho'ol, Clara
and I went down to the store and
got a penholder and string 01
beads for Ma, and a cigar stic of
candy and stick of gum for Pa.
Very extensive shopping. Tomor
row is Christmas. Clara (her sister) says we must hang out our
stockings, If we get nothing but
whips."
Lizzie's entry for Christmas Day
reads: "This morning when I got
up I found a bundle on my clothes,
looked in it and found a looking
glass, cakes and candies. The looking glass Was nothing new to me,
as Saturday last, while I was writing, Clara opened the cupboard
door to see if she could not find a
parcel pertaining to Christmas.
She opened and found the looking
glass, a transparent slate j and
candy. I doubted not but that the
former wag for me as Clara had
been in a -treat tease for the latter.
"Soon after breakfast," Lizzie
continues, "Clara and I went over
to the McCormicks' after the milk.
They had a turkey cooking for dinner and invited us to eat with
them. So about eleven we went
over and had an excellent dinner.
Stayed till about two when I saw
a sleigh drive up to our door and

Carrie Brown, Lydia Smith, Amanda Sampson and Emma Brackman.
I got in and we went after Suzy
Clapp. Just as we got to the Tal-
bots' store the axletree came off
and the horses started to leave us
behind. There was a crowd of men
on the stoops w'ho had a good deal
of fun about it. On the whole,
Christinas passed very pleasantly
and would have been more so if Ma
had not had the ague. But, ','Lizzie
philosophizes, "we mut take the
bitter with the sweet."
