WhatOtherS Saw
of Celebration
Comments of Newspapers in
This Region.
(FrOm Petoskey News.)

East Jordan, June 4.-The biggest
celebration and public gathering in the
history OF the tri-cities of Charlevoix
County-East Jordan, Charlevoix and
Boyne City-occurred yesterday and
continued last night at East Jordan,
where all Northern Michigan gathered
for home coming and celebration in
honor Of the returned service men OF
the three cities and other nearby places.
Practically every store, bank and other
business places in all three cities closed
and nearly everyone in these cities and
territory surrounding was in East Jor-
dan.
The Petoskey City Band and the
Boyne City and East Jordan marine
bands furnished music for the parade
and activities throughout the day.
Trains made special excursion and
there were excursions by boat from
Boyne City and Charlevoix. Roads
were crowded with automobiles and
other vehicles. Mayors and members
Of the governments Of the three cities
and Charlevoix county officials were
present
East Jordan company in the old
National Guard went to the Mexican
border and rendered valuable service.
When made into regular army men
they served the colors through the
battling of more than year in France
as members of the 125th infantry of
the 32nd Division. The glory OF the
32nd division is their glory, and the
sadness of the division is their sadness,
for many an East Jordan boy lies
buried beneath the sunny fields of
France. Charlevoix, Boyne City and
Petoskey also are represented in the
company.
There was speech making, athletic
contests, parade and dancing, and last
night there was dances and more fun.
The soldiers had the freedom of the
city, feasted, feted, danced with, sung
to and about, were loved by pretty girls
and lavished with affection by mothers
wives, sisters and friends. 1t was
the greatest day in East Jordan's his
tory and a credit to Charlevoix county
and all Northern Michigan.

ing local belle costumed to represent
the Goddess of Liberty. She was
mounted on magnificent black charger
which was led by Soldier and Sailor
In uniform.
Next came the Boyne City Marine
Band, its ranks swelled to twenty-eight
by the addition of a number of East
Jordan musicians. Following the band
was the much cheered and applauded
line OF soldiers and sailors whose way
was strewn with flowers cast by white
robed girls and veterans of 81 IS.
The balance of the long parade was
made up of school children formed to
represent "Red Arrow; School gar
den workers; A Red Cross ambulance;
Salvation Army lassies; Boy Scouts,
Camp Fire Girls; Indians in costume
and calithumpians. At the end of the
parade, neatly uniformed, furnishing
soul-stirring, appropriate music, come
the Petoskey City Band sixteen strong.
Both bands furnished concerts thruout
the day.
Following the parade there were
street sports for the younger genera
ton, the winners of these events were
awarded cash prizes.
The ball game which was played in
the afternoon between the high school
teams of Boyne City and East Jordan,
resulted in II to 3 victory for the
home team. Boyne was hopelessly
Outplayed from start to finish, partly
thru the lack of their captain and
catcher, but largely for want of "pep."
One of the features of arrangement
which appealed to the visitor was the
roping off of the principal streets of the
city and the allowing only pedestrians
to use them. The cufbs were lined
with seats and in the center of Main
street was erected a beautiful arch
bearing the inscription "Welcome
Home, above the lettering was reared
a huge red arrow.
The visitors were also favorably i'm
pressed by the courtesys extended
upon every hand and the fact that
nearly everything in the city was alb
solutely free.
Our sister city is to be congratulated
and complimented on having staged a
celebration that will long be remember
ed in Charlevoix County.

From CharIeyOix SentineI)

Tuesday was quiet day in this city
with all places of business closed and
nearly our entire population away from
home all due to the "Welcome Home"
celebration at East Jordan.
The day was all that could be desired
for public demonstration, the crowds
of people from all northern localities
much greater than was anticipated by
our East Jordan neighbors and the dis
play parade etc., by the returned SOL
der boys the finest demonstration OF
its kind ever seen in northern Michigan,
while the crowd OF people in attendance
was the largest, in point Of number,
that our neighboring city has ever en-
tertained.
The city of Charlevoix donated a
large number of citizens to help cele-
brate the home coming event and it is
probable that more Charlevoix people
were at East Jordan last Tuesday than
at any one time in the history OF the
city.
The Steamers Odd Fellow and Mabel
ran excursions and number OF launch
es made trips between the two cities
for those who enjoyed the lake trip and
hundreds of automobiles from this city,
heavily loaded with passengers, made
the trip over land.
The members OF the various commit.
tees at East Jordan looked carefully
after the program of events and the
entire day passed off pleasantly, with.
out accident, and was fully enjoyed by
the vast crowd of northern Michigan
citizens

KILLED BY LIGHTNING
Electric Fluid Causes Instant
Death of w. {. Thier.

William Charles Thier an employee
of Harry Widdifield, was killed by
lightning during the electric storm that
was raging in this city, Tuesday after
noon.
Mr.. Thier and Mr.. Widdifield had en-
tered building, of the latter, in order
to secure shelter from the passing storm
and were standing few feet apart
when bolt of lightning entered the
building at the point where Mr.. Thier
was standing causing his death instant
ly and though Mr.. Widdifield was stand
ing near, not more than five feet dis
tant, he was not even slightly injured
by the death dealing fluid, nor was the
building damaged in any particular, the
bolt of lightning evidently entered
through an open doorway near which
Mr.. Thier and Mr.. Widdifield were
standing.
Mr.. Thier has resided in this city one
year and has been a resident of this
part of the county for the past thirty
seven years, the most of the time in
Norwood township.
He was united in marriage with Miss
Viola Sedgman of East Jordan about
eighteen years ago, who with seven
children survive him. Also three sisters
Mrs. Charles Brown of Flint, Mrs.
William Wiles and Mrs. Norman Wells,
of Norwood township and two brothers

troit.-Charlevoix Sentinel.

assisted as walters and some OF them
proved quite adept to the art OF serv-
ing.
Band Music and Street Sports proved
an excellent afternoon entertainment.
II. c. Clark managed the sports
schedule and intense interest was man
ifest i'm all the contests. No record was
kept OF the winners so we are unable
to publish the list.
Following the street sports the crowd
adjourned to the School grounds where
a game of base ball was witnessed be-
tween Boyne City and East Jordan.
Our local team won by score OF II
to3.
One of the big features of the days
free entertainment was that Of the Mo-
ton Picture show at Temple Theatre.
Manager Gruber was fortunate in Sc
curing a feature that was well adapted
for the occasion-the Lee children in
"Swat the Spy" The auditorium which
ScdtS SOliS CiSHt iuhuiSd was P"ShNN
by appreciative audiences from HOO
a. m. until late at night.
The free refreshment stands were
popular with the crowds throughout
the day and those in charge worked
faithfully to serve their guests in a
satisfactory manner.
In the evening the Boyne City Marine
Band favored with delightful concert
music on our streets, and following this
dancing at the Armory and the Skating
Rink were centers OF the crowd.
just what was the size OF the crowd
of people visiting our city that day is
problematic. Traffic on all roads lead
ing into our city was heavy on inbound
cars until early afternoon. On the
Charlevoix-East Jordan highway an
estimate was made that over a thousand
autos, all filled with people, passed a
given point. Other roads had equally
heavy traffic and boat excursions were
run from Charlevoix and Boyne City.
The business houses of both Boyne
City and CharlevoiX closed about noon
for the day and this augmented the
crowds.

(From BOyne Citizen

Ideal weather conditions and the
perfectly executed plans Of a live ef-
ficient committee tended to make the
Welcome Home Celebration at East
Jordan yesterday the success prophe-
cied and merited..
II is estimated that fully six thousand
people assembled during the day to do
honor to the County's returned war
heroes. The feature of the day was
the morning parade in which these
soldiers participated. There were one
hundred sixty of them in the line, but
as all did not march ii is safe to esti-
mate the number in uniform, who were
the honored guests Of East Jordan, as
two hundred.
The parade was headed by charm

Some Welcome
Believe Us
Greatest Event in History of
East Jordan.

The returned home soldiers and sail
ors have at least some faint conception
OF the regard in which they are held by
ljheir home folks and il we did not
make the fact known that we were real
glad to see them it was because we
lacked facilities to declare that fact.
Charlevoix County and surrounding
region needed no urging to make the
Welcome Home Celebration at East
Jordan last Tuesday gala one. Work
was suspended in our neighbOring
cities of Boyne City and Charlevoix, as
well as in East Jordan, interest in farm
@ork was lost for the time being, and
every citizen who possibly could do SO
made their way to the main business
center of East Jordan where the events
of the day were staged.
This is the only time in her history
that East Jordan boasted OF being a
wide open town and she was on this
occasion actually proud of the fact. Not
only wide open but everything free for
those who strove to make the world a
safer and better place in which to live.
Ii we succeeded in showing them
that East Jordan was one of the places
that had become better then it was a
criterion that this country and all coun-
tries have been purified by their blood
baptisms.
Along the line of march as the veter-
ans paraded they were welcomed in
every conceivable manner and the
citizens lost no opportunity to advise
them OF the fact that they were truly
welcome. Banners declared the fact,
megaphones announced it, bands play
ed it, children chortled it, everybody
looked it, and wherever one went the
Fsigns were all the same and bore the
same greeting.
We tried to give the boys a rousing
sendoff, but the return reception out
shone all the efforts we had made on
departures. We were not glad to see
them 90, but were proud that they un-
dertook to maintain honor, decency
and safety in the world and we wished
them Godspeed and a safe return. The
welcome and the cheering was reserv-
ed for the return, and that it has grown
from lying fallow these many months
was evident when the volume was once
turned loose. 1t was a welcome by
everybody and for everybody.

Cloud Burst
At CharlevOix
One Man Killed and One In
jured By Lightning.

Charlevoix came near being wiped
off the map Tuesday night when struck
by fierce cloudburst and electric
storm. One man, William Thaeir, was
killed by lightning as he stood in a
barn door, and j. Woodfield, standing
near him, was struck but not killed.
Water was pounded through roofs,
side walls, store fronts, filled basement,
washed great holes in the roads and
streets, tore up trees and caused other
damage.
The cloudburst continued for more
than an hour and the electric storm
about four hours. The whole section
for ten miles around the city felt the
effects of the storm but its pathway
was about five miles wide and extend
ed along the Lake Michigan shore
northeast of the city about five miles.
The new Moon theatre building,
the Geiken building, home of Attorney
Lewis and Charlevoix Courier building
seem the hardest hit, but other build
ings had roofs pounded and water beat
through walls and fronts. There was
very little wind. Large numbers of
Charlevoix people were in East Jordan
when the storm hit
The water rushed down the main
streets so swiftly that none but good
ctronU man could croSc tha Straatc
without being washed under. 1t quick
ly overflowed curbs and sidewalks, in
to stores and other buildings. Water
stood several inches deep in the Cour-
ier office and washed the floor out of
the Geiken coal office. So hard did
the water pound on roofs and building
walls that they were quickly soaked
through and the floors flooded.

If you're content with bare living
that's probably all you'll ever get.
Some say an automobile that "saves
steps" never seems to save money.
Children cry when there is nothing
to cry about and when they grow up
they fail to cry when there is plenty to
cry about.
IT'S an irritating thought that some
of the people who profess to know
more about your business than you do,
may be right.
When woman feels that she has a
great world mission to perform, chances
are that she has either been disappoint-
ed in love or her husband.
Of course your rich neighbor prob
ably is not as happy as you are, but you
haven't heard him say anything about
getting rid of his wealth so he can be
poor and happy, have you?

EVENTS OF THE DAY

Never was celebration day more
propitious than that of last Tuesday.
Weather conditions were ideal. For
once the chronic bad weather howler'
lost an inning.
Early that morning active prepara-
tions were begun for the days events
The pavement for several blocks was
thoroughly washed down and closed to
vehicles for the day. This was most
texeellent idea as it would have been
simply impossible to handle the crowds
in the area any other way.
The various committees commenced
the days activities early and worked
throughout the day with vim and
energy.
The crowds began to gather early in
the day and when the parade appeared
at eleven o'clock the Main street was
crowded with people from all sections
of northern Michigan.
Most excellent music was provided
throughout the day and evening by the
Petoskey City Band and the Boyne City
Marine Band.
The parade was fine. Our guests of
honor--the soldiers and salorS-ap-
peared in a body in the line of march
and there was a continuous ovation
along the entire course as these heroes
passed in review. Various war activi
ties were depicted, the Camp Fire Girls
Salvation Army lassies, school garden
Clubs and other branches received
generous applause. The grades Of our
public schools were well represented
in the line of march. Uncle Sam and
Columbia were there, and the Cal
thumpians brought up the rear. Mem
bers of the G. A. r. and w. r. C. were
lined up in front of Red Cross head
quarters and, as our honored guests
passed in review, were showered with
flowers.
The big task of the day was that Of
hroperly dining our guests, and this af-
lhir, in which hundreds OF obstacles had
to be overcome, was successful in every
detail. Mrs. w. F. Empey and the other
ladies of our Red Cross Auxiliary are
to be commended in the able manner
in which this was handled. The Armory
