ment of Health today to start their
vaccine shots immediately.

health commissioner, .said the
three shots given as a series to
provide immunity against po]io
should cover at least a seven?
month interval with*a one-month
Set Dates

since her sophomore- year*
She competed with students from
Fai-well, Barryton, Remus, Weidman, Sacred Heart and Mt. Pleasant high schools. Her rewards for
winning the contest included an
RCA portable radio and a ?25 saving bond presented to her by Gene
Duckworth of Mt. Pleasant, wh<»
was chairman of the contest.
"With Mary Tice placing first
this year, Roger Walter placing
second last year, and Billy Carter
placing second in 1954, I feel that
Clare has taken more than its share
of honors in the "I Speak for De
mocracy" Contests. Townspeople
will remember that Dick Ulrich
placed first in the year 1950," said
Mrs. Louisa Bowler, speech and
dramatic coach at Clare High.
Dr. Elbert Bowen of Central
Michigan College, Rev. Cutler of
Mt. Pleasant and Professor Storey
from Alma College were the judges
for this contest, the seventh year

shots and a six-month wait between the second and third shots,
Full beneficial effects of the vaccine are not afforded until after
the third shot, Dr. Heustis pointed
out.
The polio "season" in Michigan
begins about July 1, when the
number of polio cases usually begins a plimb toward a high for the
year in mid-August.
Dr. Heustis said that in order
for a person to obtain maximum
protection against polio by next*
July 1 he should receive his first
shot in the series by December I,
Sixteen polio deaths have been
reported in Michigan so far this
year, Fifteen of the 16 had not received polio shots and the 16th had
not receyied a full course of the
Shots.
About 300,000 persons in Michi-
gan-^most of them between 6 and
10 years of age — have received
iheir third polio shots ,and 1,500,000
persons have received at least two
shots.
To date in 1956, only one case of
paralytic polio has, been reported
among persons who have received
all three shots.
Polio vaccine is now in plentiful
supply and no one need go without protection, Dr. Heustis said,
Prosecutor
Warns Of
Check Risks
Robert H. Campbell,' Clare county prosecuting attorney, issued a
warning this week to Christmas
tree producers to beware of checks
given by strangers and especially
notf-residents for payment of
Christmas tree -purchases.
"Each year there are hundreds
of dollars lost by Christmas tree
producers who accept checks thai
ar.e-no good from some stranger or
non-resident," he said.
He suggested that if you don't
know that the person you are
dealing with is honest and that his
check is good, then you should require a certified check or a bank
money order or cash.
"An individual should require
the same kind of identification and
the same kind of proof that the
check is good that is required by
a bank. If the person that offers
you a check in payment for a purchase can't get the check itself
cashed at a bank, then you are assuming a great risk in accepting
this same check in payment of a
purchase."
This warning is equally important to farmers that sell hay and
posts and should be equally important to the ordinary businessman who cashes checks, large and
small, every day of the week.

Yellow Clothing Said Safest
But Will Hunters Wear It?
Traditional hunting red is one of
the most dangerous colors in apparel for hunters to wear because
it is not quickly distinguished by
either color-blind hunters or those
with normal vision, according to a
warning issued recently by the
Michigan Optometric Association.
Tests revealed that yellow is by
far the safest color. Orange is
second best. Green and various
plaids can also ba detected and
identified more quickly than reds
and blues.

hunters and outdoors men is that a

Clare drama students attended
the Third Annual Drama Day Clinic
sponsored by the Ferris Institute,
Saturday, November 17.
Features of the day included a
coffee hour and a demonstration
in stage craft on a limited budget
by Mr. Richard Hentz, instructoi
in the Commercial Arts Department at Ferris. Professor Fred
Bush of Central Michigan College
gave a very interesting talk on The
Current Broadway Plays. Lunch
was then served in Masselink Commons.
The afternoon was highlighted by
i one-act play, "The Man "Upstairs"
and a three-act play "Stagedoor".
Two former students of Clare High
School, Eunice Demarest and La-
vina White, had parts in the three-
act play.
The session ended with a reception in the student lounge. People
attending from Clare were Mrs.
Ruby Jackson, Mts. Louisa Bowler,

Rev. Speer's
Work Accepted
For Book Fair
Rev. Gordon Speer, pastor of the
Ypsilanti Congregational Church,
and a son-in-law of Mrs. H. C. Cudney, has had a book accepted for
the Third Annual World Affairs
Book Fair in New York City, November 14-24.
Rev. Speer received the news
from thc Carnegie Endowment for
International Peace, that his book,
Talks To Youth, had been chosen.
Books wore selected on the -basis of contribution in the fields of
cultural and political problems
with international significance.
Mr. and Mrs. Speer were invited
to be guests of thc Carnegie Endowment at the Book Fair. Kev.
Speer has spoken in the Congregational church in Clare on several
occasions.
A2/c Garold Jones was the first
to report shooting his buck. He
called us a little after 8 a.m. opening day, after shooting the buck an
hour before. The eight-pointer
dressed out to 165% pounds.
Murl Houghton was another
early bird, bagging a buck at
just about 7:15 a.m. on opening day.
Dick Groves, hunting in the Upper Peninsula, brought home a ten
point prize. His hunting cronies in
the Cornucopia Club came back
empty handed, but managed to
take it like sportsmen.
There are other stories around
too, about knowing old buckskin trophies that can. outrun
bullets, or disappear into thin
air, at will. There just isn't
room to list all of them. Anyway, there's still a week or
hunting season left, plenty of
time ftar many a hunter to
make good.
a long time before replacement by
another hue.
"Floresceut clothing was found
good under some conditions," an
authority on -vision sa1d,~but clothing of this type was not especially
easy for the color-blind and hunters
with normal vision to make out
when the wearer was in shadow,
The same was found true under the
difficult light conditions of dawn
and dusk."
Even for hunters with normal
color vision, it is sometimes hard
to spot a red garment against the
reddish-brown landscape coloring
of the fall season, it is claimed.

Michigan Bell Co. Applies
For New Phone Rate Increase
The Michigan Bell Telephone
Company has filed a petition with
the Public Service Commission for
411 intrastate rate- increase calling
for a 5 per cent rise, in company
revenues.  .
T. C. Maher, local 'area manager,
said the increase "is needed to
cover two upward wage adjustments for company employees and
otlier increased costs.
"The pay adjustments were necessary to keep wages of our employee in Hue with thqse paid.by
outside industry so that we can
continue to attract and keep -t the
type of employees" required to furnish good service. The adjustments
were based on wage survey showing the general level of wages paid
in communities served by the company."
Mr. Maher also emphasized the
company "is taking the opportunity
at tliis time Jo ask" for a re-balanc
ing of its rate schedules.to reflect,
the growing value of thepervice in
growing communities.' ' Existing
rates are based upon a telephone
census of 194S. Since that time, the
nuniber of telephones in the Clare
local calling area has increased
from 3,287 to 6.S29.
Detailed information concerning
the cost to telephone, users resulting
from the proposed rate raises was

The uses of Visual Aids in teaching work in the church were outlined by Rev. Harold Taber, pastor
of the Shepherd Methodist, church
and the Indian Mission at Mt. Pleasant, for the Clare County Ministerial Association November 13.
The group convened at the Clare
Methodist Churcli at 10 a.m.
Main points of Rev. Taber's talk
were on slide and film projectors,
the equipment best for the use intended, and the materials and'their
adaptations to the age for which
they are used.
The discussion centered on the
field of religious education, rather
than promotion.
His admonition to the church
workers present was to start small
in the field. He reminded his audience that Visual Aids can not accomplish teaching by themselves.
They are not a substitute for
teaching, he emphasized, but an
aid, and must not be over-used. He
said. that twice as much time is
needed when preparing a lesson using visual aids.
Attention was drawn to the large
selection of materials now available, and where it could be obtained. A number Of slides were presented, and" *R*£v> -Taber' suggested
that the teacher be fully familiar
with the material shown, for young
people to get the full benefit of
visual aid teaching.
The meeting was opened by singing "Jesus Saviour Pilot Me", after
which Rev. L. J. Nevins led in
prayer. Rev. E. O. Burke, president
of the organization led in a short
devotional and prayer was offered
by Rev. Floyd Bontrager.
The minutes of the previous
meeting were read and approved,
the treasurer reported and his report was approved. It was decided
to hold the next meeting at the
Congregational church in Harrison,
December llth, 1956 at 10:00 a. m.
Rev. Mrs. Lou Beery to have
charge of the devotions. Rev. L. J.
Nevins to be the speaker, giving
Vital information upon his recent
meeting.
The chair appointed a committee
to be in charge bf arranging pro-
"grams for the meetings. Those.ap
pointed were Rev. L. J. r<!evins, oi
the Clare Methodist Church, Rev.
Elza Beery of the Eagle Church ol
God, and Rev. Floyd Bontrager of
the Mennonite Church.
Those attending the meeting
from the Ministerial Association
were: Rev. and Mrs. Elza Beery,
Rev. and Mrs. E. O .Burke, Rev.
and Mrs. L, J. Nevins ,Rev. and
Mrs. Floyd Bontrager, Rev. and
Mrs. Lee Sickal, Rev. Ralph Claggett, Rev. Mrs. Leah Garchow. Ministers widows: Mrs. Elnora Honderich and Mrs. Nina Kleinhardt.

workers from churches in the area
were present.    *

Keep That Buck Cool
To Save Meat, Hides
Hunters, take note: you're making a mistake if you bring your
deor back strapped to the b.opd of
your car, as the "heat; itoja the m-
gine may Spoil the meat as -well as
the hide, according to Prof, Warren W. Chase, chairman of the Department of Wildlife Management
at The University of Michigan.
"Deer should -be- placed in a carrier on top df the car," he says.
And here are a few more useful
tips for nimrods from the professor: i
"Do not shoot the deer through
the middle of the body ... and
certainly not high on the back . .
if you want to make the best use
of the skin for such items as buckskin jackets and gloves. Aim your
shot for the neck, shoulder or
lower chest cavity. The best leather comes from, the back of the animal. Use a rifle or shot gun slug
xather than buckshot.
"The animal should be skinned
as soon as it can be put into a
locker plant or any other suitable
place," he continues. "The skinning
should be done with a relatively
dull knife to avoid cutting holes
in the material. It should not be
skinned in the woods as the skin
protects the meat from exposure
to dirt and insects.
"After skinning ,the excess fat
and meat should be scraped from
the hide. Handle the knife with
care to avoid cutting through the
skin." *
Professor Chase recommends
that the skin be dried for a day or
two in an insect-free place, Then
it should be laid on a 'flat surface
and the flesh side rubbed with approximately two pounds of salt
until the entire area has been well
Saturated.
Because it is tricky to tan a hide
at home, Professor Chase recommends sending it (by express) to
a commercial tanner who will re-

Automobile Club of Michigan
has announced the publication of
a 20-page, illustrated booklet
dealing with inadequate ' conditions now prevalent in Michigan
State Parks. Called "The State ot
Our Parks," the booklet was published in thc interest ef ■ providing better park facilities for
Michigan residents.
The chief problem of thc paries
as outlined in the booklet is "too
many people in too little space
with insufficient funds available
for expansion and maintenance."
Tlie booklet suggests that the

Deer hunter itraffic on the State

Mackinac showed a sharp decrease

carried 14,308 vehicles, comiraredt
to 18,544 in the same period a year
ago, a decrease of 4,236 or 22*per

The fact that the opening of the
hunting season came at mid-*<vcek
was believed responsible for* the
drop, plus the fact many auto
