HOME OF OLD YALE RESI-
DENT BURNS TO GROUND

There are many old friends in
and around Yale who will be
greatly interested in this item of
news concerning a former resi-
dent of these parts. A letter
written to Mrs. Eva Black and
Carrie Clark gave the distressing
information that the home of
their uncle, Jason Clark, in Lam
cling, Tenn, had burned to the
ground with goodly portion Of
its contents. although some things
were saved. Mr.. Clark's daugh-
ter, who lived with him, wrote
that her father, who is we'll adj
vanced in years. was quite broken
up over the loss of his home, es-
pecially as he had no insurance
upon it. Former neighbors and
friends in Yale will sympathize
with Mr.. Clark.

POSTMASTER FARLEY AND
CARRIERS GET RAISE
Rural Carriers Will Receive $500
Increase In Their Yearly
Salaries

Under the recently passed
Emergency Appropriation Bill
affecting postoffice departments
of the country, three Saint
Clair county postmasters, namely {:
Edward Farley, Yale; C. c.. Jack
son, Algonac, and w. d. Warren,
Capac, will receive substantial in
creases in salary, due to the fact
that they are in charge of third
class postoffices.
Rural carriers are also affected
by this ruling and will be benefit
ed by this ruling, all of which
will help take the sting out of the
many long cold drives that are
ahead of them this winter. Their
pay is increased 5000.
The increases were greatly de-
served in both cases.

T APPS


For the first time since the
signing of the armistice, and the
celebration of the homecoming of
our boys, a county, which has
since been rejoicing over its splen-
did part in the world war, bows its
head in deep sorrow. The after
math of war has been felt deeply.
On Tuesday of this week at
Port Huron, two of st. Clair
county's heroes were borne to
where fellow "buddies" tenderly
lowered them to their last resting
place. The sad lbut beautiful
tones of taps" were sounded; the
sharp crack of the rifles of the
firing squad gave the final mill
tary farewell to the two young st.
Clair county men who had gone
west" in order that Liberty might
live.
This sorrow is being felt in
every city and hamlet in Michigan.
Sunday last the bodies of one hun
dred and eleven Michigan men ar
rived in Detroit from Northern
Russia, where they had given
their all while following the flag
Sanilac county had three heroes
who had fallen with those of this
and other counties. And the
same is true throughout the state.
Saddened hearts are resuming
their everyday tasks after pay
ing tribute to the boys who passed
from this life "over there"
Sergt. Fred Marriott, of Port
Huron, and Pvt. Daniel Robbins,
of Blaine. were the boys of this
county whose remains were
brought back from Russia. and
Port Huron paid them glowing
tribute. A funeral cortege made
up of civil war veterans. mem
bers of the American Legion,
Spanish-American war veterans
and Co. 76. M. S. T. escorted the
two caskets draped with Ameri-
can flags through a lane of bow
ed heads and tear wet eyes to the
peace and quiet of their final
resting places. The line of march
started at the First Methodist
church where impressive SER
vices were held.
These gallant young men gave
their lives that we might live.
They left their homes and went in
to that foreign country to fight for
Democracy. They passed thru
untold hardships doing their duty
for the country that they loved.
Soldiers Robbins and Marriott
have gone on; but they have earn
ed a place in the hearts of the peo-
pie that will live on for genera
tions.

from Eaton county were among
those to present licenses.
Deer, many of them, each bear
ing its tag from a hunters license
are already appearing at the ex-
press stations, where John Baird,
state game and fish commissioner
has stationed inspectors.
Each hunter is permitted his
deer, and but one. To this deer,
when shipped, must be attached
the license tag, else it is contra
band and confiscated by the state.
Weather conditions have been
fair for the hunters, but not too
good. Rain has made tracking
possible, but cold and snow are
the hope of the hunters who are
really out for game, admitting
that there are many who see
chiefly the attraction of the woods,
the roaring campfire, the jovial
game" on a cracker box and,
mayhap, just a nip or two of the
stuff that hasn't entirely disap-
peared from the woods.
1t will all continue, tramping,
banging, perhaps even entrench-
ing if the woods get much more
crowded, until midnight, Nov. 80.
Then must come that scramblinp
exodus enforced by the state rule
that all game to come out of the
woods at all must come out with
in az hours.

in petty and selfish way, and they do want
service and expect to pay for it.
Therefore our only hope Is from the labor
ers themselves. They can stop this evil if
they will.
Street-car men have been striking for bet
ter hours and more pay; railway workers,
factory hands, seamen, carpenters, team
sters, plumbers and even actors strike, in
sisting on better treatment.
Why not all get together and declare that
any man who attempts TO bride a waiter in
restaurant. porter in a seeping-car, n
telegraph messenger. a taxi driver. or any
other honest respectable worker and seeks
by present of money to induce said worker
to favor him in preference to others. or
endeavors by such bribery to ingratiate
himself into said workers good graces, shall
be boycotted and shall not be waited on
at all?
Service is honorable. Work is honorable
But tipping. which is camouflaged bribery,
is dishonorabe.
You can't tip a gentleman who politely
tells you the way to Main street; why
should you insult gentleman who brings
you the ham and eggs?
A lady who sits before you would be in
suited if you offered her dime for passing
the butter; why shouldn't the lady who
stands behind and passes the butter be in
suited when you attempt to slip her ten
cents, and thus degrade her civility into
servility?

Strike Against Tipping

There Is one more strike | want to see.
II is general strike by all Organized
Labor against Tipping.
A Tip is an insult
II is the very cream. gist and essence Of
all that superior-class Of feeling which La
Dor resents.
The waiter. hat-boy chauffeur or porter
ought 20 be, under our democracy. as good
rs anybody. When they stand around ex-
pecting tips they are no better than pam
handlers.
They ought to be well paid Their service
is just as honorable as that of anybody, and
more necessary than that of many.
That being the case they should not allow
any ore TO tip them.
never tip n waiter or any one else who
serves me, that | do not feel mean and
snobbsh, and wish that despicable custom
did not force me.
A waiter is citizen. He can help choose
the President. You can't tip the President
of the United States; why should you dare
TO tip the man who makes Presidents?
But the tipping nuisance will never be
cured from the top; the remedy must come
from the bottom.
1t is the tippees. not the tippers, that can
get their class out Of this servile, grating
unworthy practice.
