BIG 1Ol RANCH WILD
WEST SHOW COMING

The 101 Ranch is the only real Wild
West Exhibition on the road this season.
The performance adhers more closely
to the genuine Wild West idea than any
of its rivals, although several sensa-
tional special features are introduced
this year. One of these is a thrilling
auto polo match in which autos are
utilized in place of ponies, and is the
last word in reckless daring and the
biggest sensation of the year in Wild
West werld. IT, auto polo feature
does not however Interfere in any way
with the typical Wild West character
of the show. There is agreat company
of Cowboys, Cowgirls, Indians, MeXi-
cans, Cossacks and others, and the per-
Torrance they give is strenuous in the
extreme. There will be roping with a
heard of genuine long horned Texas
steers, bucking with the outlaw ponies,
expert rifle shooting, the capture of a
stage coach by Mexican bandits, an at
tack by wild Sioux Indians on a
pioneers camp, game of football on
horseback by Cowboys and Indians and
many other features, illustrating not
only the historic side of the old West,
but also the fun and pastimes of the
modern ranch. Miller Bros. & Airing
toms 101 Ranch has been greatly en-
larged since its it's previous visits, re-
quiring special trains, equal to SO
cars, and its reputation as represen-
tative Wild West Exhibition has ex-
tended ocean to ocean. The parpher-
MALTA has been entirely rebuilt for this
season, the street parade is two miles
long and contains many novel features.
The home of the show is on the Miller

New Teachers For Clio

At the meeting of the school board
last week the following changes were
made in the list of teachers: Miss Mary
Asher of Mt. Pleasant has been en-
gagged as principal in the high school
since Miss Loyica Dean resigned Miss
Asher is graduate of the University
of Michigan and also of the Ypsilanti
normal. She comes highly recommended
to the board and her work combined
with Mr.. Chapel's, also a university
graduate, will probably raise the rank
Of the school considerably.
The other new teachers engaged are
Misses Gertrude Bown and Mae Black
ney. Both of these teachers formerly
taught here and their efficiency is well
known. The remainder of the corps of
teachers will remain the same as last
year. The high school catalogue will
soon be published as there will probably
be some changes in the course of study.
Supt, ]. G. Chapel is in hopes of en-
larging the agricultural course to meet
the growing enthusiasm in the subject
which has been manifested during the
last two years.

At the special election held Monday
- tables were reversed. There were
kyotes cast, 35 of these were women,
cere against the proposition to bond
for $1,000 to pave Vienna
and Mill streets. 73 were in favor OF 1T
and there were 8 spoiled ballots. Ac-
cordingly there will nothing done as re-
CARDS paving for time indefinite. Last
spring the proposition carried by vote
of 173 to II against. Since the then there
has been considerable said pro and con
and as result the first setback is recorded
against as lively and progressive board
of trade as ever existed in town. The
majority of women voted against 1t.
The great hoodos seemed to be that
taxes would be higher, that's true, but
the personal and general benefits would
have been greater. Then too some con-
tended that sewer system should first
be established in the village, and third
ly others said the kind of pavement
agreed upon was not substantial and
lasting. Had the mistake of changing
registration day last not been made the
paving would have been well under way
now as the bonds were disposed of and
but for this illegal point, the money
would have been forthcoming and the
contractors at work. Some lost their
patience with the village officials in
taking so long to dispose Of the bonds.
However be it known, bonds were not
much in demand this certain year, es-
pecially last spring and the council did
its very best under these conditions.
True too, there was not very heavy
registration Saturday, hence the light
vote. Nevertheless the plan was defeat
ed and these are the plain facts as they
=. We will have the same old grind,
2 bad roads in the stormy season, and
what not. Hope for something better.
Sure.
