'Teen Parties
Teen Age Dances held in the
Clare, city hall for the past several
years, will be discontinued, unless
a meeting of the Clare Community
Council this week can come up with
a solution to recent claims of lack
of adult supervision at the dances.
The Clare Ctly Commission voted
Monday evening to deny use of the
hall by the teen-agers after several
windows were found broken, and a
lavatory dislodged from the wall,
following Saturday night's dance.
The young people were originally
granted use of the hall rent and
utility free, by promising the city
commission that there Would be
adult supervision , throughout the
evening, and that the hall would, be
,leftlclean.
Stirlings
To Attend
Vets Meeting
Dr. Neil Stirling will be at the^
Bancroft Hotel in Saginaw Thurs-*
day,and Friday as General Chairman for the 74th annual meeting
of the Michigan State Veterinary
Association. More than 300 Veterinarians and their wives -are ex*
pected to attend.
Df. J. M. Donaldson of Mt.
Pleasant is acting program chairman; Dr. Harold Doneth, also of
Mt. Pleasant and Dr-Frank Bolen-
baugh of Coleman ate others in our
immediate area who are serving on
committees.
The chief objective of the host
association, Central Michigan, has
been to provide a worth while program. Their plans include programs which will give technical
information- pertaining to their
w<?rk and its problems and also
their entertainment and social activities which are a part of the
meeting.
The Ladies Auxiliary will. be
celebrating the twenty - fifth year
of the organization.'This year it's
extraspecialfor.theladi.es.
Mrs. Gilbert Meyer, Detroit, is
president and Mrs. Neil Stirling*
Clare, is general chairman, for the
ahftual meeting.
e.; CohJini^sion has received
frequent complaints that bottles,
candy wrappers and other litter
wete left in the room, Saturday
night's, damage was the final in-
* cident * effecting' the decision to
deny the youngsters use of the hall.
■ "If-the Community Council can
promise, a regular schedule of adult
chaperones for the dances, and we
have their word in good faith that
the rooni will be left clean and
undamaged, I'd be glad to see the
young people have the use of the
hall again," Mayor Laurenee Seiter
said in commenting on the commission's decision.
"On Sunday mornings, the hall is
rented to a church group for its
services. It is not reasonable that
they should have to clean the hall
before it can be used, particularly
when they pay for the use of It. And
the janitor can't be kept on call
late Saturday nights to clean up
after the youngsters." Seiter explained.
The Community Council meeting
will be at S p.m. "Friday evening, at
the City Hall, and all parents and
other interested adults are urged
to attend.
Tha Teen Age dances have been
an opportunity for Clare young
people to enjoy wholesome entertainment. To provide them with a
place to dance and meet young people their own age is a problem
worth the attention and concern of
adults, the iGommunity Council
feels.

From Mrs. Jack Kowan, Nebraska: I remember the first term of
school I taught in Keya-Paha County, Nebraska, then nicknamed Mob
CO,* on account of several lynching* Which had occurred over
stock stealing. The little log school
house stood back in the breaks of
the Niobrara River, was,i2xl4 ieet,
with two small windows for light
along each side of the room. The
toot Was covered with brush, hay
and dirt, and a few . sunflowers
growing on the roof seemed to
wave me a welcome that September morning ih 1891 as I entered
the schoolyard n where the children -stood Waiting for their new
teacher.
The furniture in the building
consisted of slab benches, along
two sides of. the room, a small-
home-made table and "boughten"
teacher's chairs. Each child furnished his own. books—Harper's
Guffey's, or what have you, with
glafe and slate pencils. After all
these years I can still hear the
scratching of those pencils or the
sound of some small boy Spitting
on his slate artd wiping it clean
with his shirt sleeve. A few older
children -owned copy books and
pen and/ ink and the small, table
wa« conveniently moved about for
writing 'lessons. ,.
Edward J, RiVard, of Point Clare
was treated at Clare Hospital for a
face cut early Tuesday morning
after his car left the road on the
curve of West Fifth street near
Maple street and slammed into a
utility pole guard posts there.
His car was estimateu a^a total
wreck by Clare Police. RiVard was
ticketed on a charge of driving under the influenoe of alcohol. He was
released on $1Q0 bond, and will
have a hearing at a later date.
The force of the Rivard car striking the heavy posts moved one of
them nearly three feet from its
position. The posts had' been placed
there by the company to prevent
damage to the pole and wires by
out-of-control cars on the dangerous curve,
After hitting the posts, PUvard's
car shot back across Fifth street
and finally came to rest ou the terrace of the lawn in front of the
Henry Ackerman home at the
street intersection. One other auto
travelling on Fifth street, was reported damaged by the Rlvard car
as It zig-zagged across the traffic
lanes.
It was incorrectly reported in the
June 7 paper that William Six Jr.
drove into the side of another ear
as it moved into the left hand lane
for a turn. Instead, the Six ear
was struck, in the rear corner

Retailers Decide
Kids clutching "balloons 'ana
crowds scuffing through the sheils
of hundreds of pounds of peanuts
gave carnival atmosphere to
Clare's first Sidewalk. Sale, held
Friday, June IS; -Glare shoppers
picked'and chose among a complete array of merchandise.
Clare merchants were out on the
sidewalks, offering everything
from earrings to pots and pans,
clothes, and furniture, seed corn
and even silver dollars, all at bargain prices.
Derby-hatted, linen-coated sales
people were favored with fine hot
weather as they moved their selling operations out of doors.
The four hundred pounds of pea
nuts, bought for distribution by
merchants were mostly gone by
neon, as -youngsters enjoyed an offseason trick-or-treat spree, snatching peanuts by the double hand-
fuls.
, Loudspeakers blared music, and
a sound car swept up, and down
the streets, extolling the bargains
spread but on tables on the sidewalk. 'Tourists mingled in the
crowds.
At night, a street dance was
called off due to the rain, but even this couldn't, detract from the
huge selling success that the day
had/been.
.Monday noon, the Clare Chamber of Commerce at its regular
meeting voted to make, the Sidewalk Sale an annual venture.
Merchant members were frankly
delighted with the good twne shoppers obviously had, in addition to
the excellent dollar returns in
their cash registers.
The Chamber of Commerce
found merchant cooperation for
the event so good, that they were
able to pay off all expenses of the
sidewalk salo (including a bill for
four huridred pounds of peanuts)
and came out money ahead.
The "idea for this first Sidewalk
Sale took shape a relatively short
time ago, and was carried out in
a relatively short time for a project of this size.
Merchants participating were assessed a set fee, to pay, promotion
expenses of the sale. For next
year's sale, there'll be a full 'year
for the Chamber of Commerce to
plan it's launching,
