Motorcycle Accident

A rather strange combination of cir
cumstances resulted in serious motor
cycle accident near the residence of
Clark Hill, south of Pine Run, Satur-
day evening, at about six o'clock. 1t
appears that neighbor was obliged to
haul wheat through Mr. Hills pasture
in order to reach the road and on open :
ing gate for this purpose one of Mr..
Hills horses got out into the road.
Just at that time man, his wife and
little daughter, all riding on a motor
cycle, .were passing, and the machine
chanced to touch the stray horse, which
wheeled and kicked. knocking the
motorcycle over. bruising the man se-
verely, and breaking the woman's arm
in two places, the child escaping with
minor bruises. A passing auto took
the woman and child to hospital in
Flint, while the man took the broken
motorcycle to Mr.. Hills home where it
still remains. 1t has been impossible to
learn the names of the motorcycle
party.

PITT PARKER

Some time ago the humorist and
chalk-talker, Pitt Parker, who will ap-
pear in Clio on the afternoon and even
ing of the third day of the Chautauqua.
humorously wrote letter to an imag-
mary public citizen concerning himself.
The noted New Englander wrote as
follows:
have been present at every per-
formance given by Mr.. Parker during
the past twelve years, and at many
previous to that time. To say that |
took the keenest delight in them all
would hardly be true. Speaking frank
ly. have never attended one of his
performances without going away
thinking l could do much better, and
frequently have succeeded in doing it.
/ may be a trife critical but | have
seen him with crayon in hand before a
refined and intelligent audience make a
mark, followed by remark, and then
proceed to rub it in He seems con-
fined to no particular line, for he draws
all conceivable kinds, leaving it for the
audience to draw conclusions. Some
might think his work rather super
fetal because so much of it appears
only on the surface, yet the large mum.
Der of towns in which he has appeared
only proves that his work is not for
gotten. Possibly he shows the best
form in his clay modelling in which he
features clay faces while he faces clay
features.
Personally am quite fond of Mr..
Parker and anticipate the pleasure OF
being present at many more entertain
ments given by him.
'Confdentially yours,
Pitt Parker. F"

Condensery Sold

Everyone in Clio is delighted over
the fact that the property of the Clio
Condensed Milk Co., has been bought
by the Detroit Creamery Co., whose
purpose it is, we understand, to re-
build the factory at the earliest posi-
bic time and put it in operation. This
very desirable result is. we believe, to
considerable extent, due to public
spirited efforts of M. G. Doyle and DR..
j. H. Wardle, the latter being in the
employ of the Detroit Creamery Co.,
at Mt. Clemens. The Detroit Cream
cry Co. is one of the largest concerns
of it's kind in the state, has an abun-
dance of capital and will undoubtedly
operate the local plant to its fullest
capacity.

Snake in Mail Box

"Sufferin' cats! is this real or inagi-
nary" yelled Gala Maxwell, the efficient
carrier on Route No. 2; the other day,
when on opening the mail box in front
of Chas. LaDue's residence, he discov-
cred big snake coiled therein. Gala
clapped the cover right back down, but
knowing of no reason why the snake
should not be real, he carefully lifted il
again with his whip and found the rep
tile was dead. 1t was big snake and
had evidently been placed in the box by
some mischievous BOYS who probably
did not realize they were committing
an offense for which they might be
severely dealt with.

BOOTH LOWREY

Booth Lowrey, famous wit and hu-
morist, who will speak afternoon and
night on the opening day of the Clio
Chautauqua, is twin brother of Judge
Perrin H. Lowrey, of whom he is very
fond, and in whose career he takes
great pride. Nothing, however, not
even the Judge, escapes Booth Lowrey's
jokes. Judge" he said once, in good
natured badinage, 'you have received
good many honors and will receive
many more, but hope you will not get

their close relationship, began to pay
the judge glowing tribute. Mr.. Low

CONSERVATORY PLAYERS

After recent appearance in Cobalt,
Ontario, the Daily nugget, commenting
upon the Conservatory Players, said:
=" The best talent of it's nature that
has ever visited Haileybury,' was the
comment on every side about the Con-
servatory Players who delighted a
crowded house at the Assembly Hall of
the Haileybury High School last even
ing. the house was packed to capacity
while chairman of the board, Mr.. Geo
T. Smith, acted as chairman for the
evening and introduced the artists.
"Four artists are included in the
touring troupe. Miss Dot Fay Trott, is
thorough musician, with a splendid
soprano voice and an accomplished
pianist and violinist. She possesses
wonderful contralto voice, while other
selections by her included readings and
piano selections. Mr.. Edward Cole
man is an instrumental soloist and takes
baritone in his many songs. Mr.. Badly
Strang, the other member of the Play
ers, is tenor and impersonator, while
his Scotch selections, especially his
playing of the bagpipes was greatly ap-
preciated.
"The program rendered by these
artists included instrumental quartets
and solos, vocal quartets, duets and
solos. character impersonations, sketch
es and other selections.
The Conservatory Players will appear
in Clio on the opening day of the chau-
tauqua program, afternoon and night.

An Enjoyable Event

Tuesday afternoon the home of Mr..
and Mrs. Alfred Peters was the scene
of gathering of old school friends, in
vited by Miss Ella Guild to honor Mrs.
Arthur Jones, of N. Tonawanda, N. Y.
Miss Guild had gathered wisdom from
past experiences and knew that it
would be wholly improper to have any
entertainment planned for this COM
pany, as one afternoon would be all too
short, and any needles, games or other
intrusions upon the time, would be re-
garded as robbery.
By-gone and half-forgotten happen
ings were reviewed, events that were
vital facts in the long ago when what
are now two fair dwelling houses, was
the classic hall of learning in our little
town. At that time anyone who wished
could "take his dinner" to school and
without "permit from the principal, I"
too. One guest was reminded of what
was always left in her pail after lunch,
and the narrator told how she used to
contrive to get this pail for her own
appropriation during school hours in
the afternoon. To Judge from the way
this person partook of the dainty and
delicious refreshments served by Mrs.
Peters and Miss Guild, her appetite is
as Unsuitable now as it was then.
Another guest received graphic
description of her clothes when she was
at certain age; and another was given
an object lesson showing how she used
to get up to recite so as to make her
very best appearance, always.
Two vocalists who used to sing in
one of our church choirs, were informed,
for the first time in their lives, l am
sure, that their youthful voices were
pitched to the nightmare key; and a
once young musician was shocked to
learn of the nightmares her exercises
had induced.
Not the least interesting nor the
least amusing feature of the afternoon
was rehearsal of how the evenings
were spent at hotel in Flint during q
certain teachers examination which
several of the company attended. The
rehearsal went to show that teachers,
like preachers, like to open the safety
valve when off duty,

If statistics became too accurate or il
events were too ancient, and some
feigned not to be able to remember Sc

be covered with chagrin. Some one
known by everyone to be younger thar
she, would invariably say that she
could remember it all very distinctly
How unfortunate for their friends, that
some people have such remarkable ca
pacities for preserving statistics
Of course tin-types were brought out
and many saw themselves as other:
saw them in other years, and just be
fore the company broke up, Miss Guilt
took new picture of the group. This
no doubt, will be added to the collection
and will furnish amusement for future
festivities of like nature.
Altogether, it was very happy af
fair and the two who failed to com,
missed the best time ever, as thos,
who were there will attest.
