MATRIMONIAL
Jewell Brown

A very pretty wedding took place
at the residence of Mr.. and Mrs. A. l..
Jewell, last Monday afternoon, at
600 o'clock, when their daughter,
Mildred, became the bride of Lyle
Brown, son of Mrs. Maria Brown, OF
Thetford The ceremony was per-
formed by Rev. "A. t. Cahburn in the
presence of about twenty relatives
and close friends of the bridal couple,
the latter being attended at the altar
by Miss Ruth Chappell, as bridesmaid,
and Floyd Loomis, as best man. The
bride wore beautiful gown of cream
crepe de chine and the bridesmaid
was charmingly attired in a gown OF
pink silk. Both ladies carried show
er bouquets Of white roses. Follow
ing the wedding a bountiful dinner
was served to the assembled COM
pany. 1t would be impossible to
speak too highly of the character OF
these young people. Both are grad
yates of Clio High School, are prom
inent in church and social circles
and will have the best wishes of 8
very large number of friends for 8
long, happy and prosperous welded
life. We may state, also, that the
groom was gallant soldier during
the world war, serving in France as
first lieutenant in an artillery sec
tion of the American army. After
the wedding festivities the young
people left on a honeymoon trip tC
Detroit and other points and on theil
return will be at home to theil
friends in a residence which has re
Gently been completed for them il

Tin as a Common Bond.

II is not surprising that the United
States, where almost every variety OF
eatable has found Its way into tin
cans for preservation, should use
nearly two-thirds OF the total produc-
ton of tin in the world. But it may
be an unexpected discovery TO find
that the South American country, Boz
livia. supplies about one-quarter of
the total output. In consequence. Bo-
lIvia. producer, wants to make
friends with the tin-uslng republic
to the north, and more so now that
the United States has its own smelters
to refine the ore, an innovation due
to the war. The South American ma
tlon hopes to secure a loan for com
pleting the Pan-American railway In
order to improve commercial facilities.
AS long as the canning OF fruits and
vegetables continues td flourish as
it has In the past, In the United States,
doubt vanishes as To the close friend
ship between the second producer and
the first consumer of the worlds tin.

The Republican National Conven-
tion which completed it's labors in the
City of Chicago, last Saturday even
ing, on the tenth ballot nominated
Hon. Warrea c. Harding, United
States Senator from Ohio, for presi-
dent, and Hon. Calvin Coolidge, Gov
ernor Of Massachusetts, for vice pres
idnet. Johnson was practically elm
mated as candidate after the sec
ond ballet and a strong fight between
the supporters Of Wood and Lowden
preceded the break to Harding. The
presidential nominee began life as a
printers apprentice and is still one Of
the proprietors of The Marion Star,
published in the city where be began
hts apprenticeship. 1t may be truly
said that Senator Harding is not as
we'll known as some of the other cans
didates, but it can also be truly said
that all that is known of him, both in
Ohio, his native state, and elsewhere.
is to his credit. 1t is a record of
hard work, ability and accomplish
ment unmarried by any adverse
charges. Besides, the senator is as
well known as Garfield was at the
time of his nomination; as well known
as many other presidential candidates
that we could name. His running
mate, Governor Coolidge, is held to
be man of extraordinary ability in
a state that boasts of exceptional in
tellectual endowments and history.
As consequence Of these consider
ations, the nominations suit the edi-
tor of The Messenger and he believes
they will command the united and
enthusiastic support Of the Republic
an party throughout the country.

ANNUAL COMMENCEMENT

Following is the complete program
of events that will mark the annual
commencement exercises OF Clio High
School. Clio has every reason to be
proud of her schools and these exer-
cises will once again make plain in
the public mind the. culture they are
spreading in this vicinity and the in
fluence they are exerting in behalf Of
more efficient and purer citizenship.
In all candor, The Messenger can con-
gratulate the faculty of the schools
on the work it is doing and to
the big class of bright boys and girls
who will constitute this years grad
yates we shall extend further con-
gratulations coupled with sineerest
best wishes. The events of commence
ment week will, with the exception
of the Baccalaureate sermon, take

CHANGE IN FIRM

During the past two weeks ar
rangements have been made whereby
John f. Wirth has purchased the in
terest of his partner, d. D. Meeks, In
the firm of Meeks & Wirth, and
about the first of July will assume
full possession of the business. Mr..
Wirth will need no introduction at
our hands to the people of Clio. For
nearly or quite twenty-four years he
has been connected with the business
interests of Clio, starting in small
way as proprietor of a tailor shop,
then engaging in the mercantile bus
mess for himself, and about eight
years ago purchasing the interest OF
w. j. Schofield in the firm of Scho-
field & Meeks, with whose stock he
consolidated his own. AS there is
no need for an introduction of Mr..
Wirth by us, so also, perhaps, there
is no need for us to say that through
unfailing courtesy and integrity,
strict application to business and an
enterprising spirit he has been fac
tor in developing one of the largest
mercantile concerns in this commun-
ity. We are glad to pay him this tri-
butte, whether necessary or not, be-
cause it is deserved and because we
can do it in entire sincerity. With
such a past as foundation there can
be little doubt as to the success that
will attend Mr.. Wirth's future in
the mercantile business in Clio.
d. ID. Meeks, who will retire from
the firm of Meeks & Wirth, as above
noted, has been engaged in business
for himself in Clio for the past six
teen years or more, eight years as a
member of the firm of Schofield &
Meeks, and eight years as member
of the firm from which he will soon
retire. Previous to that time he was
a salesman in some of the leading
stores of the town and during his en-
tire career has enjoyed splendid re
putation for business ability, enter
prise, integrity and all of the quail
ties that make for well rounded gooC
citizenship. We are indeed sorry tt
lose Mr.. Meeks as a business man il
Clio, but are very glad that he ha:
achieved measure of success tina
will enable him to enjoy needed anC
deserved rest, and we are sure tina
our sentiment in this regard will b'
shared by the entire community. w,
are informed that Mr.. Meeks will in
dulge in rather prolonged vacation
and will then, for time, at least
look after the development of som,
fruit lands which he owns in Florida
but whatever his future may be, w
are sure his many Clio friends will
hope that will be happy and prosper

NEW FACTORY

Wednesday afternoon two big au-
tomato machines were unloaded at
the Chown garage on Center Street,
where they will be used in the manu-
facture of bolts and nuts. The gen.
tlemen who are the proprietors of the
factory are Messrs. O'Neil, Edwards,
Calkins and Hamilton, all of the city
of Flint, who are experienced
in the lines of goods that will be
made. The name of the new firm is
The Genesee Automatic Screw Com
pany, and while they will not at first
be very heavy employers of labor,
they will, if the growth they antici-
pate takes place, very soon employ
quite force. The Messenger is very
glad indeed to welcome this new firm
to our town and trusts and believes
it will have a prosperous future. The
product of the new factory will be
very largely used by the auto factor
les, and the proprietors located in
Clio because of its proximity to Flint
and because when our new cement
roads are all completed we will have
transportation facilities unequaled,
probably, by any other town in the
county.
