PATRoNIzE HOME INDUSTRY

This article is not inspired; that is
to say we were not asked to write it
by any interested person, and yet we
feel that we ought to write it. 1t is
addressed to the milk producers of
this section. Briefly, we hope they
will fully realize how important to
the industry the Clio condensary is;
how it helps to preserve a competi-
tive market and how uniformly CON
siderate its management has always
been in receiving milk. We believe
that if the farmer friends consider
these points thoughtfully and in a
spirit of fairness they will realize the
Importance of the condensary and
accord it every assistance in their
power.

OBITUARY


A life that had been filled with gen.
erous deeds and kindly ministrations
came to a fitting close, Saturday,
May 18th, 1922, when Mrs. Susan
+. Huyck, bearing the infirmities
that must invariably attend advanced
age, peacefully and serenely entered
into the beautiful realm of eternal
rest. She had arisen on the morning
of the day of her death in her usual
state of health and had been sitting
in her arm chair, when it was
noticed that her head had fallen
slightly forward and upon investiga-
tion it was found that her gentle soul
had taken, its flight to the beautiful
vale beyond; a vale whence fond
memories of loved ones gone before
had been softly calling through many
a year. When life's morning was
bright with the sunrise of youth and
hopeful anticipation Mrs. Huyck's
husband, to whom she had been wed
ded but about two years, marched
away to the great Civil War, never
to return. Following her husbands
death she continued to reside in this
vicinity where she was universally
respected.
Susan E. Bingham was born Dec.
a, 1889, on the old Bingham home
stead, one and one-half miles south
of Clio, being the daughter of George
I. and Eunice Bingham. She was
one of a family of five children, hav-
ing one sister, Cornelia, and three
brothers, Walter, Melvin and Edwin,
of whom the last named is now the
only survivor. 1t is said that she was
the first white girl to be born in this
section of the country and so from
the rude clearings and log houses of
pioneer days, through an experience
of four score and three years, she
saw the wilderness made to blossom
as the rose. In 1860 she was united
in marriage to Charles Huyck, who,
in 1862, enlisted in Co. c., 23rd
Mich. Inf, and in 1864, gave his life
to his country as a prisoner of war
in the famous, or rather infamous,
Confederate military prison at Belle
Isle, Va. Mr.. and Mrs. Huyck were
the parents of one child, son, E. f.
Huyck, of Clio, who has been and will
continue to be inspired by the mem
ory of loving and exemplary moth
er. Mrs. Huyck is also survived by
three grandchildren, Mrs. E. r. May,
Charles Huyck and Stanhope Huyck,
and by one brother, Edwin Bingham,
all of Clio. For many years Mrs.
Huyck maintained her own residence
in this village, but for the last five
or six years had been tenderly cared
for in the home of her son.
Funeral services, which were large
ly attended, among those persent be-
ing many old friends of the family
who came from a distance, were held
from the home Of Mr.. and Mrs. E. E.
Huyck, Monday afternoon. The
floral tributes were numerous and
beautiful. The sermon was preache
by Rev. A. T. Camburn and the bur-
ial was in the family lot in Wood
lawn cemetery.

BAND REHEARSAL

A rehearsal of the Clio Band will
be held at the council rooms on Mon
day evening, May %, and Thursday
evening, May 25, at 500 o'clock.
w. j. Jones of Alliance, Ohio, will
be present and assist and as he is an
experienced and skilled band master,
this will be of great assistance. 1t
is said there is plenty of talent avail
able for band and it is certainly to
be hoped that live organization may
be established. Every person who
can play a band instrument is urged
to be present at these rehearsals.

Beers

L. J. Beers, formerly of this vicin-

daughter, Mrs. Florence Bostick, in
Lapeer, on May 18th, 1922. He
leaves ten children, thirty-six grand
children and fourteen great grand
children, besides host of friends, to
mourn their loss. Mrs. Beers died a
year ago the 28th day of last No
vember, since which time Mr.. Beers
had been ready to join her. They
had both been faithful workers for
the Lord for so years. Mr.. Beers was
85 years old. Funeral services were
held from the home of the daughter
in Lapeer, on Sunday and the re-
mains were laid at rest, besides those
of his wife, in Millington cemetery.

IN MEMORIAM

In loving memory of our darling
little boy, who died one year ago:
From heaven came tiny bud,
That was sent to us to bloom

Would call him back so soon.

Earth the lonely casket keeps,
Oh! how our hearts do linger
where
Our darling baby sleeps"

Locally, the raspberries were hard
