AS we go to press, we would say of
the sick ones in Mr.. Menzies' family,
that they are improving though slowly.
The new apple drying machine which
had been erected on the grounds occu-
pied by the one burned down a few
days ago, is about ready for work.
You promised yourself and the old
brindle COW that next winter would see
some repairs made, and cracks closed
in the old barn. Don't break your
promise.
The stray pop of rifle is heard now
and then, but you need not be alarm

the spider webs out of the gun barrels
preparatory for the fall deer shooting.
Every man in town is busy now or
can if he wants to. The contractor
putting on the roof of the.electric light
building had to go to MELVIN for a
spare man Wednesday.
Mr.. Hilton, of Grand Rapids, Gen.
eral Adjustor for the Cooper Insurance

A late letter from Frank Coulter re-
ports the 1st U. S. Regulars to have left
Long Island and in camp at Amuston,
Ala. He says that orders received
unless countermanded, will soon take
them to Havana to help settle the Gu
bans and send the Spaniards home.
The writer of this note happens to
live where he can see what is going on
in the lumber trade in Yale. The
amount of lumber of all classes taken
out of Yale is perfect surprise to US.
We doubt if more is sold in any town
of like size between Port Huron and
Saginaw.
The first floor of the Yale Wooden
Mills was not running the first part of
the week on account of two new
Knowles broad looms being placed IN
position. These looms are of the
latest and most improved type and
will add largely to the plant. The
large increase of business this fall has
made this addition q necessity.
If any encompasses that nothing but
potatoes are grown in Emmett, just let
such take a ride through that town
ship, and note the full barns, big straw
stacks, and fat stock in the fields. Our
friends over there may be a mite par
tial to the potato as an article of diet,
but they know how to farm and they
make practical use of the knowledge
DR.. w. c, Walker, of Detroit, the

the doctors nextregular monthly visit.
DR.. Walker is performing many re-
makable cures. During the doctors

to consult this noted specialist, Date
of next visit Oct. IL.
We notice by the list of appointments
made at the Detroit Conference at its
late session In Mt. Clemens that Rev.
j. A. Rowe is re-appointed to Yale for
another term. That is n wise thing
and no doubt gratifying to Mr.. Rowe's
many friends both in and out of the
church. He has gone in and out
among us for the past two years and
we have learned the man behind the
preacher, and we but voice the senti-
ment of the general public in saying
that for once at least the appointing
powers have done wise and good
thing.

was brought to town that j. Ii. Mer-
rilPs farm house was in flames. The
fire started soon after the family com
menced to cook dinner, and it is
thought by spark falling on the roof.
The house was totally destroyed with
most of the contents. It's occupants,
William Allen and family loose most
of their household effects. The loss
to Mr.. Merrill is about 81 900, $3.50 of
which is made good by insurance.
The house was comparatively new
one and was very substantial

Scores of people haye gone from
Yale to seek their fortunes and make
their homes in other lands. Many of
these have repented of their folly and
returned, many more would like to do
so if they could, and perhaps others
are satisfied with their hew homes.
But of the whole number who have
gone out from us, all have come back
in memory to dear old Yale, and think
of it as one of the best towns, with the
kindest neighbors and most faithful
friends they eyer lived among. They
haye gone away from us, but they can
not break the tie which binds them to
old friends by the companionship of
other years.
