INTERESTING FISHING TRIP

A jolly bunch of real sports,
composed of Grant Holden and
our own Dusty Mcdonald in one
machine, and Frank w. Andreae,
Gordon Mckenzie, Postmaster
Farley and Editor Menzies in an
other, left Yale Tuesday morning,
July 18th, for two weeks fish
ing trip.
Nothing of Importance happen
ed on the journey to Sage Lake in
Ogemaw county, a distance of $50
miles, only we found the roads
none too good after the rain
storm of Monday night.
Our cottage was in readiness
when we reached our destination
at about 4:30 in the afternoon.
We found the fishing good and
never went out unless we brought
home some of the finny tribe.
The first week we had fish at
nearly every meal but after that
the bunch was full of fish al
though not full of fishing. A party
of happy men and women from
Flint, out for good time, pitched
their tent next to our cabin, and
with the landlord and his good
wife, both of whom were very
accommodating, our surroundings
were ideal.
A vote of thanks was rendered
by our party to the Flint bunch
and to Mr.. and Mrs. VIM Nye, of
the hotel, for the extra good time
we had while in their company.
Many interesting and laughable
happenings helped make up one
of the most enpoyable outings our
bunch ever had and If all are
spared another trip will be made
to the same spot next year.

AT PRINCESS THEATRE

One of the most popular places
in our little city each Tuesday
and Saturday evening is the Prin-
cess Theatre. The managers of
this play house have been giving
their patrons the best movie stuff
obtainable, and the people are
quick to show their appreciation
of this fact by their attendance.
The Saturday night shows are
winners, and in the near future
it is expected the Theatre will
start another Of those interesting
serial plays which take so well
with the people of the city.
But whatever it is that is on the
boards at Princess Theatre, you
can rest assured that it is some
thing worth while.

very gentlemanly by the officials
and people of the town. Also the
park is pleasant and there are
many conveniences, which things
all tend the make the conditions
very agreeable.
This camp is expected to be the
largest that this people has ever
held in this place. There will be,
we anticipate, over one hundred
tents and several hundred tenters.
In this gathering will be a large
number of ministers and workers.
Rev. David Hill, "The Lumber
Jack Evangelist" Of Columbus, O.,
will be the principal speaker. Mr..
Hill is affiliated with the Evan
geiical church but has agreed to
come to our camp this year. His
picture will appear in another is
sue of this paper. He is expected
to preach twice day and we are
sure he will be an interesting
speaker.
The meetings during the day
and evening will consist of song
and praise at 9 a. m. and z p. m.
Preaching at 10 a. m. and 3 and 8
D. m.
The public and especially the
ministers of other churches are
invited and will be made very
welcome,

Let's All Get Together And Bring
This Matter To A Climax

While so many of our neighbor-
ing towns are planning on having
their banner fair and race crowds
at their fall fairs and race meet
ings, Yale hasn'ta thing in sight
to tentertain her people, and we
would suggest street carnival
and harvest festival. This is
something that woulb please the
big crowd that would attend and
at the same time would help ad-
vertise our city as one of the best
places in the Thumb for a good
time.
Let's get together and do some
thing in this line. With the pres
ent out look for a bounteous har-
vest, and high prices for every
commodity the farmer has to sell,
he should be glad to have an op-
portunity to get away from his
work for few days and enjoy life
to its fullest extent.
The business men of our little
city are live bunch, and we fully
believe they would all turn in and
do their part in the matter.
Let's get busy and see what can
be done. There is no better way
to advertise a town and keep it on
the map than to plan entertain
ment for the people of the commu-
nifty, and we know if all our peo-
pie would turn in and work for
something of this sort it could be
put across, and our farmer friends
would be more than pleased to
have it done.

Buy at Home and Save Money

Yale merchants are the ones the
people of this community should
patronize, and it's time they found
it out. Our dealers are all tax
payers in this county, and they
are ready to accommodate you in
any way. They help pay for our
good roads, donate to the local
churches and in hundreds of 9TH
er ways help the community.
On the other hand, dollar sent
to a mail order house has the word
goodbye stamped on its face.
On any bill of goods you buy
from the Chicago house you could
probably save some money if you
bought it at home. The pictures
look nice all right, but are the
goods up to your expectations on
their arrival? When you buy at
home you see just what you are
getting, and if you are not salts
fled you don't have to take the
goods.
The next time you send an order
to these people ask them if they
will take some of your produce in
exchange for the goods; tell them
you are little short of money and
will pay them when you sell your
hay; tell them you are soliciting
a little money for your church and
ask them for some assistance tell
them one of your neighbors burn
ed out and you are soliciting aid.
You know what kind of a reply
you would get don't you? Then
why in the name of common sense
don't you patronize those you
ask to help in the above instances.
We haven't a business man in
town who wouldn't help in any
case of need, who doesn't dig
down when your church wants
help, to help you in any way you
wish, and the Expositor believes
it would be no more than right
that you try and get what you
want at home before you send to
Chicago, when you kiss your
money goodbye.

MANY YALETTES
ARE CAMPING
AT CEDARWOOD
Newsy Items Regarding All Our
Folks Who Are Enjoying
The Lake BreeZes

Grace MenZies was a guest of
Frances Andreae last week.
Visitors thronged the beach all
day Sunday enjoying the bath
ing.
Rensley Holden and guests will
occupy the Mcintyre cottage the
next two weeks.
Watson Wesley will build sew
eral new cottages at Cedarwood
next season.
A diving platform has been put
up opposite the Andreae boat
house for the convenience of the
cottagers.
Mrs. Frank Andreae, Mrs. Full
Ter, Mrs. Farley and Mrs. Wind
sor formed house-party on
Thursday last as guests of Mrs.
Staley and Mrs. Fead in the Nc
Intyre cottage.
People from Port Huron and
Flint have just left the Wesley
cottage after two weeks stay.
The Fraling family from Port
Huron are now here.
Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Mcintyre,
Mr.. and Mrs. V. A. Lacy were en-
tertained at Cedarwood on Tues
day by Mr.. and Mrs. j. E. Staley
and Mr.. and Mrs. f. F. Fead. 1t
was perfect day and the time
was spent most enjoyably.
We were a little premature last
week in stating that the band
spent Sunday at the lake. They
had intended doing so, but in
some manner the wires got cross
ed and the trip was put off a
week, and last Sunday the boys
enjoyed their outing at Cedar
wood. The Resorters were treat
ed to some fine music which was
greatly appreciated.
A peculiar sight was noticed
Sunday evening. The wind was
strong off the land but the water
was calm, when it began sudden
ly to rise, coming up probably
more than a foot and as quickly
receding. In many ways this day
proved rather exciting. During
the forenoon it was seen through
glasses that two boys were out
in a small boat with a sail, at
least mile from shore, and were
having difficulty, the boat going
round and round in a circle. With
their motor boat Ed. and Dolph
Andreae put out and towed the
unfortunates to shore. They
proved to be Boy Scouts camping
at Lakeport.

A VALUABLE BOOK

The Expositor recently has
come into possession of a remark
able book which will furnish the
answer to almost any question
that may be asked. 1t should
prove to be particularly valuable
in our printing office, for con.
trary to the general opinion, ed
itors do not know everything.
In our humble view of the sit
uation this book, which is called
the Standard Dictionary of Facts
would be an invaluable factor in
the educational progress of our
children and also for those par
ents who wish to keep fully
abreast of the times in all that
appertains to general knowledge.
With this book and our new
Linotype in operation, the Expos
itor office is we'll equipped with
the most important accessories
necessary to get out an up-to-
date newspaper.

Trip Is Made BY Auto In Just
About Thirty Days

Mr.. and Mrs. Frank X. Gilbert
who have been visiting Mrs. Gil
bert's parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Geo.
Mann in Yale, and other Michigan
friends since the first of July, one
special purpose of the trip be-
ing to reach Yale in time for the
Home Coming Celebration, are
starting back Monday next for
their home in Monterey, Califor-
MIA, making both ways in their
Ford. They feel that in success
fully coming such a distance in a
machine, and in encountering and
overcoming the many difficulties
that beset the wayfarer, they have
achieved something rather won
derful and to listen to the tales
that both Mr.. and Mrs. Gilbert can
tell, one can not doubt that it was
a remarkable experience.
But although they really advise
anyone who is thinking of making
the trip by auto, just to ship the
auto and go by train, still they
are not easily discouraged and are
counting on their own experiences
to put them wiser on their home
ward way.
Starting out about the first of
June through and over Califor-
MAS beautiful glass-like roads,
gave them no indication of what
was ahead Of them. Over the Sier-
ra Nevadas they found good roads
but very steep climbing. Over
the Rockies the ascent was easy
and gradual and the scenery mag
nificent. But the desert roads
through Utah, Nevada and Wy
oming were unspeakable. Driving
for hundreds of miles through the
desert with the alkali and the sage
dust rising up to choke and stran-
gle one and at times having to
stop the car until the dust settled
enough to let one see ahead. Some
times making a day camp because
one didn't know where the next
water hole might be and finding
it the next morning just a short
distance ahead.
Seeing terrible dust storm
coming in the distance and MAX
ing time as fast as it was possi-
bic and lucky enough to just es-
cape its fury.
With monotonous scenery for
days and days, no tree or any
thing to break the dreadful flat
ness, nothing but the sage brush
and when you camped at night,
feeling that the whole earth was
silently shutting you in and you
wanted to scream, it was so lone
ly.
Many and many a machine was
passed on this road of two ruts,
lying wrecked and deserted by
the roadside, beautiful big cars,
some burned, something or other
breaking or being left because of

MEETING Was
HELD FRIDAY
Brockway Agricultural Associa-
tiOn Well Pleased With First
Live Stock Shipment

The Brockway Agricultural
Association held it's regular
meeting Friday evening at the
Brockway town hall. Nearly the

committees showed that the most
encouraging progress was being
made. President Charles Wilt
presided, and Secretary William
Cavanagh recorded the proceed
ings.
One of the most interesting re-
ports was of the Secretary re-
garding the first car of livestock
shipped. The members were very
well satisfied with the results,
and hereafter ,ais Will be made
a regular feature of the orgaNi.:a-
ton.
A number of new members

Clair County Farm Bureau, and
the meeting voted unanimously
TO join as an organization, thus
adding over thirty members to the

Frank X. Gilbert and Wife Give
Fine Story of Their Trip From
Sunny California to Michigan

no water, for one must carry a
quantity of water, gasoline, extra
tires and all parts to the machine
and also be a good mechanic, as
Mr.. Gilbert is.
Twice upon this desert place he
had his entire engine out going
over every part of it with the ut
most care for everything depend
ed upon the machine working
properly. But among all the cars
left deserted by the way side they
counted not one Ford and so they
ambled along their way encour-
aged.
One little incide.t proted the
necessity of providing oneself
with plenty of water while cross
ing the desert.
This couple came upon a car
containing man, his wife and
little child. They were stalled
with not a drop of water IL the
radiator and not a drop to drink.
They were nearly crazed and
were overjoyed when Mr.. Gilbert
shared with them what water he
could. He had to pass on and
never knew whether they arrived
at their destination. Of course
there are water holes and small
four-corners, but far apart and
one can easily take a wrong turn
and become lost.
The Lincoln highway, from
California through Nevada, Wy
oming and Utah is marked by the
California Automobile Associa-
tion and the sign is red, white
and blue. Mr.. Gilbert says the
Lincoln highway is distinctly
misrepresented. After becoming
fairly permeated with alkali dust
through the desert states, when
they reached Nebraska they
sloughed in the mud. The round
ed road bed admitted of no pass
ing another machine unless one
or the other Slowed off into the
ditch. The mud roads stayed
with them through Nebraska,
Iowa and Illinois and the first
good roads since leaving their
nome state they found in Michi-
gan, starting at st. Joseph. They
spun about 180 miles that day
and the least had been about 35
on the poorest roads. There was
some excuse, of course, for all the
mud, as June 1919 was a rainy
month, but poor roads predomin-
ate on the 1889 miles of Lincoln
highway. The speedometer on
the Ford driven by Mr.. Gilbert
registered 1000 miles, but he was
obliged to make various detours
in order to get through.
Although rather enjoying the
remarkable experience through
which he and his wife have pass
ed, they will be glad to see their
beautiful California again, the
state which they consider the SUI
perior of all the United States,
although giving Michigan credit
for coming next best.

CITY PLAYGROUND

Not many cities the size of Yale
have as fine little park as we
have, and the Expositor is mighty
proud of this recreation spot. Dur
ing the summer months many of
our citizens take advantage of its
shady little hooks to while away
the hours of rest and their vaca-
tion days.
1t was suggested to us the other
day that fine city playground
could be established here and
operated during the summer time.
The lady who made the remark
said she had made inquiries at
Port Huron regarding their play
ground and had learned that the
outfit used was not owned by the
city, but was rented for the sea-
son, and the company which owns
same erects all the different ar
ticles which are used to entertain
the youngsters, and in the fall
they take it down again and store
it for the winter.
An instructor is engaged for
two or three months, and the kids
are wild with enthusiasm.
Couldn't our little city go after
something like this? 1t surely
is a thing we need and need bad.
In connection with the play
ground idea the lady suggested
that we furnish tables at the park
and also other little things, which
in time would draw picnic parties
to our city. Our little park is
sure beauty spot-with plenty of
shade, and one of the best wells
in this part of the state right on
the grounds.
It's little too late to start any
thing for this summer, but let's
get busy before another season is
here and see what we can do.

Mr.. j. A. Menzies,
Dear Sir.

Mr.. j. A. Menzies,
Dear Sir:
Permit me, please, to testify to
my appreciation of the entirely
gentlemanly and whole-souled
manner in which you wrote up
your report of the annual school
meeting and which appeared in
the Expositor for July II.
Personally / have no interest
one way or another in the conduct
of the schools of Yale or of any
other place, but l do observe that
such a spirit of conciliation and
forbearance as you have shown
is manifested far too infrequently
and | cannot refrain from ex-
pressing my warmest apprecia-
ton. If only we could have more
of this spirit the world would be
a better place to live in.
