Big attendance of Clare County
Teachers at the Two Day
Sessions in the High
School.
Something over eighty, nearly all of
whom are teachers, enrolled In the
two day inspiration institute at the
city school last Thurs3ay and Friday.
The purpose of the gathering was for
a, general consultation on school Interest for the year including soma important matters presented by Oomr.
Welch and the passing out of a lot of
supplies from him to the teachers.
Prof. I-arzelere of the Central Normal
history department and Prof. Calkins
of the geography department of the
same institution alternated in presenting to the teachers various phases
of the educational problem and they
proved themselves conductors of a
real inspiration institute. Oa Thursday evening Prof. Oilklns gave an illustrated lecture at the Congregational
church on the formation of the "Great
Lake Region" and it was not only full
of interest to the comparative few,
who had studied the question, but a
means of greatly widened conception
toauch»as had not before known of
present day theories on the subject.
A visitor, whoss name perhaps had
better not be given, remarked on the
general respectable and genteel appearance of the company of teachers
as the$ appeared in the high school
room in comparison with any other
similar body of teachers he had ever
seen. From among the shadows somewhere, however, the fact Is revealed
.that sjme so-called teachers enrolled
and then stole away never more to refer to the institute in their thought
till they collect their pay from their
district for the time they neither
taught nor were at the institute. But
these were very few.
Success is written in large letters on the two day teachers' conference. Olare is proud to afford such
visitors her best accomodations.
Oome again, thrice welcome.
impered with Alarm System,
Soon after midnight Monday evening the flre alarm bell began to ring,
quickly followed by the whistle but
diligent search failed to discover any
traces of fire. The false alarm was
evidently turned infrom near Rhoades'
store, box twenty-flve, as the glass
was broken there, but the perpetrator
of the deed was not discovered. At
the water works power house ISo 101
was registered but* there is dispute as
to the number rung by the flre bell.
The author of the false alarm will be
dealt with in no uncertain way if
found. The failure of the alarm system to record the number of the box
correctly has brought forth all sorts
of remarks about Clare not needing a
81,100 metropolitan alarm system.
The apparent defect is merely due, it
is said, to wires being tangled with
telephone wires. At least, it Is further asserted the system is the best in
the county and will do all ever claimed for it.
Some are heard asserting that inas"-
much as tbe city has the system on
its h'-mdn the ritsht thing to do now is
toinvest$15 more and install a trip
to the whihtli at the electric light
power house as a part of the present
alarm ays-tern.
Chief of the flre, department A. R.
Canfleld, is out of the city and meanwhile tbe alarm system remains as it
was.

From the Manufaofuriog Centres
From S-mth Bend, Ind., uuder date
of September 2d we are in receipt of
letter from D. A. Wolsey from which
we take excerpts, Tlie closing paragraphs in particular, while they express no reference to, Ulare, but coming, as they do, from one who has had
a part in developing the Oiare Knitting Mills, contain food for reflection
for those desiring to see Olare grow;
My annual two weeks' vacation
which I take at this tlirie of the year
is all too soon drawing to a close. My
time has been mainly sp-jnt in visiting
some of our largest manufacturing Institutions for the purpose ot obserra-
tion, instruction and entertainment.
Many of the cities along northern
Illinois, Indiana and Ohio are dependent to a great extent on the large
manufacturing industries located
therein, and.such cities we find to be
typical American cities—full of life,
activity and energy.
South Bend, Indiana, a city of 60,000
inhabitants, is fortunate in the number of her industries. Some of the
articles made there'are the Studebak-
er wagons, carriages and automobiles,
Oliver chilled Plows, Singer Sewing
Machines,—all household names.
The greitest courtesy and kindness
was shown me In every plant I requested admission; in fact the larger
the concern, the more the kindness
shown.
One-half day was spent in visiting
the Studebaker plant—while to see it
even m a superficial way, a week
would be none too long. It occupies
100 acres, employes 3800 hands with a
payroll of $12-5,000 a month, and is a
result^of fifty years steady growth. I
was taken through the various departments and buildings by the superintendent. An average of one vehicle
every four minutes Is turned out,  and
to50 cars loaded and shipped each
day. In the display rooms are exhibited the state carriage of Lincoln in
which he rode to the Ford Theatre
the night of his assassination, and the
carriage presented to LaFayette by
the U. S.  government in 1824.
Mr. Oliver of the Oliver Chilled
Plow Works has made millions from
his "chill" patent, and has been a
great benefactor to the city.
Notre Dame University located at
the outskirts of the city is a wealthy
catholic institution, and all branches
of learning are conducted there. The
departments are law, science and?
pedagogy are attended by young men
of all denominations. The cathedral
adjoining, is the finest In the country
with the exception of St. Patrick's in
New York.
A short electric ride of tour miles
to Mlshawakabrings one to another
thriving city of 10,000people, and gaining at the rate of 2500 a year.
The Dodge Mfg. Co , a magnificent
plant employing 1000 hands in the
manufacture of power transmission
machinery, such as shafting, pulleys
and hangers, is loca ted on the outside
of the city. Electric and air compressed cranes as well as all the lates t
labor-saving devices are employed In
manufacturing. Two cupola& melt
twenty ton of iron a day and 500 tiul-
leys a day are moulded.
The automatic sprinkler system
seems to be the mo3t popular method
of tire protection and is used in large
retail and wholesale buildings as well
as mills. Bach mill has its own fire
pumps, reserve tanks and flre department and are Independent of the city
mains.
Themill8are built on the "unit"
system i.e.—any building can be extended as the business grows, without,
changing the original "sausage" arrangement—of having the raw material start In at one end and come out
finished at the other.
It is an inspiration to visit these
large plants and only then can a faint
Idea be had ofthe immensity of our
country's resources and the wonderful
consumption of the world.
Oa Inquiring of Mr. J. M Studebaker president of th- Studebaker Mfg.
Co as to the reas)a why certain towns
and cities ware fortuaate in securing
maiy large factories, I was told it was
duj to several causes.
Most of the immense concerns there
to-diywareofinslgniacantproportions
fifteen to twenty Ave years ago and
n iw that th -y are built up they are
tiere to stay No great a itural advantages are offared. SoU'.hBend
has water power from the Sf. .Joseph
River but it is used only by th i ■••mailer factories Mr. S. said any town
desiring industries located therivmuat
simply use "push". .   ''„..
Every city has a Board  of Trade
composed of the leading business men
of the city.   It is the purpose of such
j Boards of Trade to enumerate the ad-
[ vantages which the community they
represent can oiler to industrial enterprises for the purpose of attracting
oaplta). Tbey issue annually handsome catalogs-which enumerate the
advantages in transportation facilities, labor, rentals and taxation
which may be ofiered by that city.
The resultof the efforts of this body of
business meu is shown in a rapid increase In the growth pf that particular city as an industrial community to
which each year an increasing amoun t
of capital is directed,

Impressive Ceremonies at the Dedication of the Royal Arch Chapter
at Farweli Tuesday.
Tuesday was truly a red 1-flier day
at Farweli. With briilxnt ceremonial Farweli chapter of Riyal Arch
Masons was duly constituted, dedica*
ted and consecrated. Five officers of
tbe Grand Chapter were present
and they with many visiting companions and local members all headed by
a band marched to the Congregational
church. There In most impressive exercises'in the presence, of a crowded
house the chapter was duly constituted. Then in briflHant array they
returned to the masonic hall. Places
of business were closed during the
cremonial
In the evening a reception % was
held for master masons and other
visitors.
Music was furnished by a quartet,
seven sollsts and the band; a'so Miss
Cunabel Canfleld of Forest Hill nave
several selections on the violin. The
degrees of Most Excellent Master
Royal Arch were Ginfe#ed. The
Grand Lecturer then gave a review of
the work and complimented the
Chapter on its beautiful regalia and
excellent ritual i-Jtic work. <. The companion* next repaired to the banquet
hall which literally groaned beneath
its weight. Cigars were passed and
speeches made by many present, B.
K. Huffman the Hliih Priest acting as
toastmaster. Many eompllments
were paid the High Priest who is
untiring in his efforts to bring the
Chapter its present state of strength
and power. The speeches wore all of
that kind which appeal to the inne-
most soul tff man and were typical of
men comprising this Royal Order.
In the wee* hours the members joined hands in an unbroken circle and
closed by singing MAuld Lang Syne"
and bidding each other god speed.
Letters and telegrams were received
