Halloween
Festival

Plans for the biggest and
best" Halloween Festival in the
history of Mount Clemens, to be
held on Tuesday, Oct. 80, were
set in motion today on orders of
Mayor Albert A. Wagner, Com
missioner of Recreation, in trib-
ute to the exceptionally good
behavior of Mount Clemens
young people so far during the
traditional "hobgoblin season."
Mayor Wagner instructed De-
partment of Recreation officials
to 60 "all out" in their efforts to
provide gala celebration that
night for both children and
adults, and urged parents and
teachers to lend their aid in di-
recting all children's activities
towards this special event.
The mayor pointed out that in
several cities in Macomb County
destructive gangs have raised
havoc not in keeping with the
true spirit of Halloween. He ex-
pressed hope that Mount Glenn
ems, which provides an organized
program of events for that &C.
casion, will not be subjected to
the activities of juvenile mobs.
The evenings program on Oct.
80 will be bigger and better than
ever, Recreational Director D. A.
Arnsby predicted today. The
general background of the pro-
gram will be similar to that Of
past years, so that confusion as
to the start of the parade, its
route, and the judging and stunts
program may be avoided. How
ever, number of special
events" are being planned.
The popular grease pole
climb will be continued, and
teams are expected to organize
in that slippery, fun-provoking
struggle for SIS award.
The accent this year will be on
decorated floats, and large as
sortment of this type of entry
in the parade is anticipated.

Pondering the necessity of
raising $2,242,111.58 in all taxes
for 1916, and knowing their ov-
erall deficit will be at least
$50, 900, Macomb County super
visors were Jared Wednesday
by publication of a State Su-
preme Court decision affecting
drain bonds which might make
them liable to a claim of $780,
900 against the county general
fund.
The court decision related to
m Oakland County appeal In
regard to Southfield drain
bonds. The city of Highland
Park, holding a quantity OF
these bonds had been turned
down in Oakland Circuit Court
on its plea that the County
Treasurer should meet deficien-
cies in bond principal and inter-
est out of the general fund.
The Supreme Court decision
reversed the lower court and
held that the Oakland treasurer
can be forced by mandamus 10
pay the bondholders from the
general individually a coun-
ty-at-large assessment.
Macomb County's case, in
volving $391,349.54 in principal
and interest on a group of 1929
drain bonds, was almost paral-
lei Of the Oakland case.
This Is not good news for
Macomb County. This is
