POLITICAL MEETING

A gathering Of Yale Republi-
cans was held in Princess Thea
ire last Saturday afternoon with
\ small crowd present.
The meeting was called to order
by Mrs. N. B. Herbert, who after
a few remarks introduced the
vice-chairman, Mrs. Jennie Pilkey.
Her talk on the political issues
of the day, and in behalf bf
county candidates was interest
ing and to the point.
Other speakers were Matron of
Detention Home, Miss Corbishley
and Robt. Soutar. A few remarks
were made by Mesdames Lacy,
Hodgins and Mumby, also Rev.
Tucker.
Although the attendance was
not as large as the occasion de-
manded, there is no doubt that
those who were there were well
repaid, and all feel sure that a
spirit of unity and good will
prevails.

State Auditors Inspect
County Bookkeeping

The first audit of the books and
records of st. Clair county since
the installation of the uniform
accounting system, which was es-
tablished in all counties of Mich
igan by the state legislature Of
1921, is now being made by State
Examiners VIM. Barber and G. B.
Steffey.
For the last week the examiners
have been working in the Offices
of County Treasurer Alex Cowan
and Register of Deeds Montieth.
They are now checking the re-
cords in the office of the st. Clair
county poor commission and later
will take up the books of the sher-
if and drain commissioner.
"The fact that the uniform &C
counting system was properly
started and carried out in the
county treasurer's Office has made
our work not only in that Office
but in the others very easy to run
through" said Mr.. Barber. "The
cooperation by County Treasur-
er Cowan and his efficient staff
has facilitated our work unusual
ly, for which we are much pleas
ed. The records show in each of
the Offices in which we have COM
pleted our work, that the total
amount Of receipts in the office OF
the register Of deeds from July 7,
when the new system was INSTALL
ed to date, is $6,527.95, and that
amount has been turned into the
county treasurer.
1--WE are very much pleased
with what has been done in St
Clair county and especially de-
sire to speak of the classi
fication ledger in the auditors
office, which is in splendid shape

GLASS CONSCIOUS"

Over and over again, the radical
orators and radical literature of
this country are urging and be-
seaching and pleading with our
laboring people to become "class
conscious"
1t is declared by~the agitators,
who speak continuously and write
voluminously, that there can be
no great revolution, and no final
adjustment Of the wrongs alleged
to be heaped upon laboring men,
until all the workers have come
to realize that they compose dis
tinct class, solidly united for ac-
tion--in a word, they must be-
come "class conscious"
Now, all that sort of talk is alb
solutely unAmerican, because the
very essence of Americanism is
that "all men are created free
and equal, and here in the "land
of the Free" classes do not. and
cannot exist, unless our present
form of government is destroyed,
and an oppressive rule shall
have taken its place. =
Moreover "classism" does not
represent the highest ideals of
any European country. 1t is true
that the class spirit had its origin
in Europe, and from there, it has
been imported to this country by
jealous agitators, but it is by no
means the best that Europe has to
offer us, for there are many noble
and elevating ideals reaching us
from the lands across the sea,
and we still have much to learn
from them that is wholesome and
good.
Class consciousness. on the 9TH
er hand, is noisesome and repul-
sive-a thing to be discarded and
banished from sight. 1t is indeed
European, but it is something
which has been grabbed from
their cutters, and dug from their
refuse heaps-it is foreign sew
age dumped upon our fair land,
to foul it, and to sterilize it. 1t
withers and blasts and rots and
renders useless and offensive
whatever it touches.
Then let us have done with
such worthless rubbish. Let us
stop this endless twaddle about
"a capitalist class, and a Labor.
ing class" let us refuse to re-
ceive this disgusting "class con.
sciousness," and let us begin tc
rejoice in the ideals of America
where there is but one class, and
that class, the great class of hui
man brotherhood.-F. A. Perry.

THERE'S A DIFFERENCE

The difference between the
farmers method and the strike
method stands out like corn
crib emerging from a fog. The
strike method is to take the
country by the throat and choke
it into submission. The farmers
method is to devise ways of pro-
ducing more cheaply, better
ways of distribution, and an in
telligent cooperation. He has
the sound idea that he can thus
gain his proper profits. He does
not think of withdrawing from
the market a large production
thus bringing general distress
which might eventuate in starva
tion. When he isn't getting what
he ought to get he carries or
just the same, working and hop
ing for better times. Better times
always come, and his patience
and patriotic and humane en-
deavor are recompensed.

BILL BOARDS OFF
THE COUNTY ROADS
Order Clears Trunk Lines of
Advertising Signs


Pursuant to directions from the
state highway department, the
St Clair county road commission
has ordered all advertising signs
removed from within the limits of
trunk lines before Nov. 10.
This move follows the decision
of the state highway department
to enforce strictly the law relat-
ing to the placing of advertising
signs along trunk lines.
Not only do such signs mar the
beauty of the highways, but they
also are liable to detract the at.
tention of motorists from the
guide posts and signs erected by
state and county, says William w
Cox, manager for the st. Clail
county road commission.
In this. order of the road com
mission are included all advertis
ing signs attached to the roadside
fences as well as those erected
otherwise within the limits o.
trunk lines.
1t is the opinion of Frank E
Beard, chairman of the county
road commission, that although
enforcement of the sign-remova
order may cause some dissatisfac
tion at first on the part of tn
sign owners, eventually the wis
dom of removing these signs will
be apparent to everybody.

Deer Hunting Licenses Be-
ing Issued in Numbers

They're busy in the county
clerks Office these days handing
out deer licenses. aA
Joseph E. Vincent, county clerk
has a fresh supply of tags for use
by deer hunters. The season will
open Nov. 10. One deer to hunt.
er per season is the law. And
every deer killed by a st. Clair
county man must have one OF
"Joe's" tags on it or the game war
den will get busy.
Nearly $50 hunters obtained
deer licenses last year, the clerks
records show. He expects about
the same number of applicants
this year.

Yale Should Have Fair
And Race Association
THE DOINGS IN SEPTEMBER PROVED THAT III
CAN BE MADE A PAYING INSTITUTION.
LETS GET ONE STARTED NOW

A whole month has passed and
gone since the Yale fair and night
show was put across and we have
been anxiously waiting to see if
some movement would be started
towards organizing a fair and
race association of our own, but
up to the present time nothing
has been done.
1t seems to us that if a couple
of strangers can come along and
do as well as Oliver and Powers
did in a short time, that our busi-
ness men and citizens could get
busy and organize for a real fair
in 1928.
Since the big show we have
talked with a number of our
leading business men and citizens
and every one stated that they
would take hold and assist in a
financial way a fair and race as
sociation. Several farmers have
also informed us that they were
interested in getting one started
here, and would take stock in
same.
st. Clair county is one of the
best counties in the state and is
about the only one which cannot
boast of an annual fair. We have
the place to hold a fair, and are
located in one of the richest
farming sections in the state, and
we are positive that if some one
would only start the wheel roll
ing the Yale Fair and Races
could become an annual event.
one that would bring to our city
every fall crowds larger than
could be pulled in any other way,
and when the people come to a
town to celebrate and are used
right they will not only advertise
the place, but will surely come
again.
Here's our idea of how it could
be put across. Let's get a COM
mittee at work in the city to sell
100 shares at $25 share. Then
get another committee at work
in the country to sell another 10C
shares. This would give $4,000
which would not only finance the
deal but would give us 200 real
live boosters, and these would be
more than enough to assure sue
cess for the venture.
To help get the thing started
after the shares have been sub
scribed we would suggest that the
services of Mr.. Hildore, who was
here for this years fair and rae.
es. be secured py the people to as
sist in organizing in our city. Mr.
Hildore is connected with the
Saginaw County Fair, the Davi
son and Milford fairs, He has haC
considerable experience in pro
noting exhibitions of this kline
and we know his services coulC
be secured.
Of one thing we are certain
if Yale people don't get busy ant
cop off this plum soon, some othe,
town will be advertising 9Th,
only fair in St. Clair county"
