A FAST GAME

Last Friday night the Yale high
school basket ball team met the
fast Marysville squad in what
proved to be one Of the most
speedy and interesting games of
the season The visitors, having
met with considerable success in
their games in the st. Clair river
district, hoped for another victory
here, but the old Yale spirit and
fight was too much for them.
The home team was in the lead
from the first, but until the last
quarter the game was hotly con-
tested, and the High team was
never sure of their victory until
that period. The last quarter saw
us, because of superior tactics
and basket shooting forge far in
the lead, and when the final whis-
tie blew the score stood 43 to 18
in Yale's favor.
Every man of the High school
team displayed his skill well, both
in caging the ball and getting it
down the floor, and this was done
in such a clean and scientific man.
ner that the visitors declared it
was the cleanest game of basket
ball they had ever played.

THE YALE HIGH SCHOOL

Following is letter from a
recent visitor to our schools:-
Yale should be very proud of
her high school. For it's equip
ment alcne-its library, pictures,
statues and scientific equipment
the school is to be commended.
But the morale of the school-its
discipline, the pupils energy ana
ambition, and the class spirit
mark the Yale High School as
one of the best in the Thumb of
Michigan.
The English teachers are doing
a good work in interesting their
pupils in more extensive as we'll
as better reading.
Many Of Yale's Latin students
are finding a new and definite in
terest in Latin; they have come to
believe that the language is
worth while.

On Monday of this week a deal
was consummated whereby the
plant and equipment Of the Yale
Canning Company becomes the

Yale plant last season had an op-
tion on same and he this week
turned over the option to the
above company.
The Michigan Canned Food Co.
is Michigan corporation with
head offices in Detroit. 1t is cap
italized at $1,000,000, and is or
ganiZed to operate a chain of fac

five years of actual experience.
The local manager for the new
concern is Mr.. Broman, of Kent
City, who has had about fifteen
years experience in the canning
of fruits and vegetables with the
w. r. Roach Co., at that place.
He was in Yale Monday looking
for house, and as soon as he can
secure one will move his family

ganized in 1902 with local capital
and home people, since which time
the organization has met with sue

tees an increase in our industrial
activities. Success to the new
concern.

HARD WORK; SMALL PAY

(Written by Mrs. NJ. j. Harnden,)
Yale, Mich, March IA, '21.
| arrived in Brockway Centre
July 4th, 1864, which was then
almost a wilderness. You could
scarcely get about. 1t took team
with wagon from early morn
ing until late at night to make the
trip from Port Huron to Brock
way Centre, now Yale. No rail
road, but just a stage, which they
called a covered wagon. 1t went
to Port Huron one day and back
the next, and if heavily loaded it
took longer. We thought we were
getting up in times" when the
Grand Trunk railway went thru
Emmett, for we could get supplies
more often.
l was then working at the
Ferguson House for the small
sum of one dollar per week and
board. | did my own washing,
also all the family washing. We
made our own soap, and in the
spring we usually made a barrel
of soft soap. 1t would almost take
the hide off when you were wash
ing. | remember one time in the
fall, the wind was cold, and after
doing the half week washing 1--WE
usually washed twice a week. my
hands were so chapped and sore l
could hardly bear it. Mr.. Fergu-
son said to wash them in vinegar.
Well, | tried the medicine, but if
you ever saw crazy person it was
me. But had to get to work, as
there were about 40 men for sup
per. These men were on their
way to Bunt's lumber camp. There
were several lumber camps, among
them were Stilson's and McIlhen-
ney's.
They had their OK teams with
them, with which to skid the logs.
1t was nothing to have from 20
to rs men for supper and over
night. We had to make beds on the
floor, in the bar-room, and every
where. But girls knew how to
work then and could boil potatoes
without burning the kettle. l had
to bake all the bread, also all the
pastry.
The first school teacher here
that / remember was Mr..
Goggins, and he certainly did it
up o. K.
In the spring Brockway Centre,
NOW Yale, was made lively with
river drivers bringing the logs
down Mill creek with hand spikes.
Sometimes the creek would be
jammed so full you could walk
across. There was no bridge 60
| ing west, SO we would walk on
the logs.
The school house, cottage roof
ed. small indeed. This structure
served for school and meetings,
| too. There an assembly meC in
numbers few. No organ played
where they were wont to meet.
No choirs sang the songs to meas
ured beat Their tunes were
Rockingham and Webb. And grab
bags were scandal unknown.
Hell-dOom was the precept 10
the scorner,
And "Bless the Lord came from
every amen corner.
To the indulgent reader /
would say, MARK not the frail-
ties of the writer's lines, but
think that we never live but once
here"

RAINBOW DIVISION
 VETERANS MEET
Thousand Delegates Expect ed to Be Present When To-
 days Session Begins
By Associated Press

Cleveland, Ohio, July 14.-The bonus, disarmament and plan for na : tional guard organization were dis cussed today by delegates attending the second annual convention of the Rainbow Division Veterans associa- tion, with 8 view to outlining the divisions stand at tomorrow's ses- sons
 The bonus is regarded as almost certain ta come up, but whether the delegates will succeed in bringing the other questions before the con- venton was in doubt.
 Only brief session was held to- day, the veterans attending base ball game between Cleveland and Boston, as guests of Manager Speak, CT. Tonight they were guests of the management of an amusement park.
 Approximately 800 delegates were in the hall when Rev. Francis Duffy. former chaplain of the One Hundred and Sixty-fifth infantry delivered the invocation. It is expected this number will be doubled when tomor- rows session starts.
 In his opening address. NJ A. Tin ley of Council Bluffs, Iowa, presi : dent, urged the veterans to take a decided stand on national questions. He said the greatest duty was to keep alive the memories of the dead veterans and to help those who today arc disabled.
 President Finley declared s there should be some one present to rep resent the federal government, ex- pressing the view that the law maf : CTS too generally pass laws which affect the former service men, and which they expect them to follow, whereas they should consult the vet erans before acting. Orders to the division on the opening of the last German offensive just three years ago were read by the president in his address.

EVER DEPENDS
 ON COUNTER OFFER

Dublin, July 14.-A great majority of the Irish people appear to enter tain no doubt that at the informal conferences which at this Writinss are beginning in London, Eamoan DeValera, the Irish leader, will as sert Ireland's claim to republic based upon the peoples decision at the elections When the British prime minister, as is expected here, replies that a republic never will be grant ed, it is predicted he will follow this reply with an offer of the most that can be conceded.
 Everything, it is thought here, de- bends upon the nature of that or fer. If it is big enough there wall be formal conferences to settle the details The impression gathered m responsible Irish quarters here is that Mir. DeValera will be able to accept what he will be offered. He will keep in touch with the Irish opinion and' although it is believed he will con tend for the republican principle, ne is expected to leave to the Irish people the determination as to whether the war fare shall be carried on, or settlement accepted.
 The crux of the situation as IL IS viewed here, is finance. The lrisn virtually are unanimous that no system can be called self-government that withholds from Ireland control of it's own money-to collect, spend and to impose taxation as it pleases- Under the home-rule act, this is done by British authority, the imperla' treasury refunding to Ireland the sums collected, minus 1S.0O0,ooo pounds sterling a year. Ireland's con tribution toimperial purposes ana the cost of the reserved services.
