SCHOOL ENTERTAINMENT

The editor of this paper tries to
say a good word for every worthy
enterprise of a local nature, but once
in while he has so many things to
think of and so many things to do
that he fails to accomplish all that
is desirable. Probably no one out
side the profession can ever realize
the multiplicity of detail that a pub
Usher in town like Clio has to deal
with, not only in the way of editorial
work, but also in satisfying the de-
mands of customers who are needing
commercial printing and advertising.
1t was some such combination of cir
cumstances that resulted in our fail
ing to notice in our last issue the
very excellent program that was Civ
en- in the Auditorium, Wednesday
evening, November 10, by the senior
class of Clio High School. The pro-
gram is reported to have been excel
lent throughout and the boys and
girls of the class are. to be commend
ed onstheir enterprise, as well as their
ability, in presenting it. The enter
tainment was liverally attended and
the class netted considerable sum
from their efforts. On Saturday last
the class went to Dawson and
gave the entertainment, at which
place it was well received and a nice
profit was made.

CORN HUsKER TAKES HAND

"A most distressing accident took
place last week Thursday on the farm
OF VIM. Conlee, now occupied by Rol-
land Covert, when Sam Gabor, well
known farmer of this vicinity, had
one of his hands drawn into a corn
husker and so badly mangled that it
was necessary to amputate it the fol-
lowing Monday Mr.. Gabor had re-
Gently purchased the machine and had
been operating it only a short while
when this great misfortune overlook
him. 1t appears that the corn is
drawn into the machine by a series of
rollers and then is husked and shred
ded by other mechanism. Mr. Gabor
undoubtedly (and probably uncon-
sciously) brought his hand too close
to the rollers while feeding the ma
chine, with the result that it was
caught and in a moments time some
terrible injuries had been inflicted.
The victim of the accident was
brought TO Clio, where first aid was
administered and then taken to Hur-
ley Hospital at Flint where the neces-
sary surgical treatment was given.
Mr.. Gabor has been a very industri-
Gus and reputable citizen, is the faith
er of five children, and all who know
him will sympathize with him most
deeply and will be willing, we are
sure, to accord any assistance that
may be possible. Mr.. Gabor and his
family have resided during the past
year or more on the farm of John Nc
Grady, north of town. 1t is certain
ly testimonial TO the courage of the
victim of this serious accident that he
was able to come home from the hos
pital on the street car, the second day
after his operation, and to walk un-
aided down the street. With grit of
this kind he will find some way of
making his way in the world, not
withstanding the i'll luck which has
befallen him.

PASTOR SURPRISED

A very pleasant affair, heralded as
surprise party, was given at the M.
+. Church on Thursday evening, No
vember IL. Just what the surprise
might be was not stated by the sever
al speakers who participated in the
preliminaries, and the pastor of the
church, Rev. A. r. Camburn seemed
to be as uniformed as anyone about
the object of the meeting. But,
anyway, there were several vocal Sc
lections and other delightful features
and the speakers all had a good word
to say concerning the work of the
church and its pastor. Following
this Mr.. John F. Wirth introduced
the main event of the evening in
speech commenting the work and in
fluence of Mr.. Camburn in the
church and community and conclud-
ed by handling him a purse, contri-
buted by many friends, which
amounted to about three hundred
dollars. Mr. Camburn made a feel
ing reply to the gift and testified to
the loyal and kindly support which
had been given him by the church
and which, he said, he believed had
been the attitude of the society to-
ward all it's former pastors. The
meeting was enjoyable, the closing
feature being a light luncheon which
was served in the parlors of the
church.

HEALTH CLINIC

Last Wednesday a Health Clinic
was held in the M: f. Church par
lors of Montrose for the children of
that township. Miss +. Laverne
Gamble, DIR. Jones and DR.. Davis of
Flint Health Dept and two of our
county Red Cross nurses: Miss Lock-
hart and Lucille Gamble, were in
charge of the clinic. Mr.. John Riegle
county school commissioners, was al
so present. The citizens of Montrose
assisted in bringing six rural schools
and in other ways making the clinic
success. The physical examina-
tions of the children of these six rural
schools were completed that day.
The examinations revealed many
cases of defective vision, infected
tonsils and about 85 per cent. of the
children were found to have defect
i've teeth. One case of club foot was
found in which the child was prac-
tically walking on the bones of the
ankle. This is a condition which
can be corrected but will need hospi
al care. The parents receive notices
from the nurse telling of the defects
found and the cases are referred to
the family physician, oculist or dent
ist. 1t is hoped that many of these
defects will be corrected this year,
and so help bring about our part in
the slogan, Health, Strength and
Joy, for all the Children of all the
Schools of America"

MASONS EAT FISH

dates and at the conclusion of the
ceremonies about $50 members of
the order sat down to a fish dinner
which had been prepared under the

chefs, with Fred Anderson, Ray
Ford, Fisk Brown, Harry Gleason
and possibly others as understudies.
The fish, fresh lake herring, special
ly ordered for the occasion, fried to
turn in deep fat, were all to the
good, and the manner in which the
brothers slowed them away was
something frightful. Several dis
tinguished visitors were present at
the meetino, past masters from 9TH
er grand jurisdiction, and all paid
tribute to the manner in which the
degrees had been conferred and also
to the excellence of the dinner. The
next regular meeting of the lodge
will be held Tuesday, December z,
at which time the annual election of
officers will take place.

BUY MILK EVERY OTHER DAY

The fact that there is large sur
plus of manufactured milk products
is, we believe, quite generally under
stood; likewise the fact that many
milk receiving stations throughout
the country have been obliged to
close. AS a result of this situation,
the Detroit Creamery Company, own
ers of the local condensary, will op-
crate the plant every other day
only, beginning on the 30th of the
present month. This, of course, is
unfortunate, btu it is whole lot
better than not running at all, a
measure that for a time seemed nee
essary.
Relative to the price that will be
paid for milk, the local management
has received the following letter
from the head Offices Of the company
"Due to general milk conditions
in Detroit and throughout the coun-
try in general, viz: that there are
tremendous stocks of condensed
milk, and in fact all milk products,
which we are utterly unable to sell
at this time at any price, we are
compelled to reduce the price of milk,
per hundred, for December, to $1.90.
We have no alternative other than to
close down your station entirely, if
this price is not accepted.
Yours truly,
The Detroit Creamery Company.

complete satisfaction of all who had
the pleasure of witnessing the same.
"A large attendance was there and

for some reason had not attended

edge that we had a team to be
proud of. Brother Archie Dyball was
chief cook for the occasion, and by
the way. made for himself name in
that capacity that will never be for
gotten in the minds of all that had
the pleasure of partaking of the eats
he set before them. Baked chicken
and fried rabbit was the main feature
on the bill of fare, with complete
line of other eats, to which all men,
bers agreed was the grandest feed
ever spread in our dining hall. Bro.
Dybalf realized $17.50 for his efforts
through mammoth cake which he
baked and ratified off while the
brothers were eating, Bro! Chas. DON
nelly holding the lucky number. We
wish to take this opportunity to
thank each and every one present for
their undivided attention during the
degree work and also the brothers
who furnished the music which we
wish to say we are more than proud
of. Everyone left the hall saying
that they never had better time and
we earnestly hope to see them all
come back. Remember, also, that
the first degree will be worked next
Saturday night and we would like to
see the hall filled up once more and
keep the good work going.

there were Ia in the sack, the same
