EFROM THE

ditor's Corner

If you listen to the mediathings haven't been so goodaround Michigan and in Tuscolacounty for the last year or so.

Unemployment is high andthere aren't enough jobs to goaround.-You'll , find scads of execu-

tives in industry and businesswho will give you an argumentabout it in Cass City.

We know of one factory thatpays better than average for thearea who advertised all over theThumb for office help withoutsuccess.

But that's another story. Mybeef today concerns news-papers. If jobs are so scarcewhy can't the dailies f ind boysto deliver my papers?

It's been bad before. . .nowit's ridiculous. . .and I've had itwith adult carriers.

In the morning when I get up Iwant to read the Free Press. Atnight I want to read the DetroitNews, the Bay City Times, thePort Huron Times Herald.(Ihave to get the news some-place.) I read them for businessand pleasure.

Right now the Detroit Newsand the Bay City Times aredelivered by adults. . .personswho normally find boys to do thejob.

Let me say right now that ifthe boys were as poor atdelivering as the bosses, they'dbe looking for new boys at once.

The "little merchants" domuch better than the bigmerchants.

The Bay City paper comesneatly wrapped in a protectivewrapper since the boys stoppeddelivering. The only trouble isthat sometime it comes in theyard. Sometimes it comes in themiddle of the road. Sometimesin a snowbank and often itdoesn't come at al l .

We all play a l i t t le game. Whowill f ind the paper tonighh'Thewinner gets to read the funniesfirst.

Right now the Detroit FreePress and Port Huron deliveryis A-okay. They have hoysdelivering. The News is adifferent story. Adults do thejob. It always gets delivered.

It's placed carefully insidethe storm door.

So what's wrong? You can'ttell when i t 's coming. LastMonday it didn't come at all.

It didn't come on Monday. Butit arrived promptly on Tuesdaywhen both papers were deliv-ered together. That's beentypical. The Sunday News is thebulkiest paper we receive.

Evidently all that weightslows 'em down. For the lasttwo Sundays the paper arrivedsometime in the afternoon.

It may be true, like the papersays, "If you read the News youknow". . .hut sometimes youdon't know unt i l the next day.

The reason I don't q u i t thepaper is that I want to readthem and I understand theproblem.

It's hard to interest kids in afew bucks a week when theyreceive all necessary pocketmoney at home.

If f inding workers is this badduring the present "high unem-ployment" what's going tohappen when times get good?

I don't even want to thinkabout i t .

Council begins plans for

$300,000 budget

B y K i t M c I Y l i l l i o n

When Dale Doyen talks aboutstuffed animals, he isn't refer-ring to & teddy bear. He's aprofessional taxidermist whohas been learning and practic-ing the art of preservinganimals in l ife-like poses forabout three years.

A junior in Cass City HighSchool, he said he has beeninterested in the subject sincehe was a l i t t le kid, but it wasonly three years ago that hetook a correspondence courseand then read a lot of books onthe subject.

His first a t tempt wasn't verygood. He told about two blackbirds he tried to preserve intheir natural beauty, but ad-mitted that attempt was "kindof rank."

His skill has improved greatlysince then and now he casuallytalks about the peacock, iguana,and 42-inch pike he has stuffed.One of his pieces, the head of aruffled grouse mounted on aboard, received a f i rs t placeprize in an Industrial Educationfair last year.

Although he's both a hunterand trapper, Doyen gets a lot ofhis specimens by stopping topick up dead animals along theroad. Passersby look at him alit t le strangely, Doyen said, butthat doesn't bother him. He hasobtained other animals fromBecker's Zoo after the crea-tures died, such as the peacockand the iguana. Sometimessomeone will bring him a fish ordeer he wants stuffed.

The method used for eachanimal varies slightly, but isbasically the same. Doyen'scurrent project is a buck deerhe hit with his car.

The first step is to measurethe animal to determine whatsize form will be used. After theanimal is skinned out, the hideis tanned. This is the mosttime-consuming process andtakes about a week of soakingthe skin in a chrome alumsolution.

To achieve the life-like .qual-ity, the glass eyes are set intothe sockets filled with clay andthe nostrils are painted withblack wax.

The cartilage in the ear isremoved and replaced with aplastic or paper liner and thenthe hide is sewn over the form,which is made of fiber glass,papier-mache or plastic. Therack is replaced and secured byscrews.

"When I get right at it, ittakes about a week," Doyensaid.

The same process is used onsmaller animals, but the hidesare tanned by dusting them witha white powder preservative.

Stuffing fish is a little differ-ent, the taxidermist explained.A "show side" is chosen. Thenthe other side is slit from tail togill and the animal skinned out.After two days of tanning, theskin is sewn up again and filledwi th fish filler, a material thatlooks like a cross between breaddough and old attic insulation,said Doyen.

"I sew him up and cram itdown his mouth," he chuckled.

The son of Mr. and Mrs.Patrick Doyen, he works in a

converted shed located behindhis parents' house on SeveranceRoad. Here he keeps a largefreezer for storing animalswhile he's not working on them.He paneled the shed himself andbrought in furniture and atelevision for comfort while he'sworking.

While his family still lived intown, he worked in the basementHe made the work housebecause, "My dad got kind ofsick of going down stairs andmeeting racoons face to face,"laughed Doyen.

The dark-haired young mansaid he has no definite plans forthe future or a career in hiscurrent hobby-profession, butsaid simply, "I like nature and Ilike to be around animals."

Work on the budget for thecoming year comprised most ofthe approximately 2 hour vil-lage council meeting Tuesdaynight when a preliminary budg-et report was given to thecouncil.

In presenting the report,prepared by SuperintendentLou LaPonsie and himself,President Lambert Althavertold the council that severalassumptions were made toarrive at the preliminary fig-ures.

Revenue from taxes is ex-pected to be about $161,600 or 10per cent higher than this year,based on growth and expansionin the village. He stressed thatno increase in millage wasincluded.

Another figure that is in-creasing the village revenue isthe approximately $60,000 ayear expected from the federalgovernment under the revenuesharing program. Total revenueexpected for the general fund is$209,200, a substantial increaseover last year's budget of$160,350. The total budget willamount to about $.300,000.

Expenditures under the gen-eral fund, however, were listedin this first suggestion for nextyear's budget as $203,260. Most

figures remained about thesame throughout the wholeproposed budget. A 10 per centsalary increase was included inthe report, but this is just aworking figure, explained Al-thaver, based on departmenthead requests. The council willprobably meet in several spec-ial sessions in January to ironout salaries and other projectsfor the coming year.

New equipment and projectsproposed .are a new police car,$4000; curb and gutter for oneblock of Maple Street north ofMain Street to Church Street,$6350; surfacing of West Street;$10,500; plus seal coating localstreets now paved, about $2000;a new truck with box, $7000,anda new diaphragm pump for thevillage crew, $1000.

Questions the council willhave to determine in the comingmonths are whether or not anyimprovements will be made inparking lots. Possible projectsare grading and blacktopping ofthe lot behind the Gross MeatStore and the completion of theJackson Lot on the corner ofSeeger and Church Streets.

Another area of discussionwill be whether or not any localstreets will be curbed andguttered. So far, none is in theprogram. A possibility alreadydiscussed is bonding the villageand completing all street and

Review top 10 stories of the yearThis year, what can be called

the "Top Ten Stories" dependson who you are and whathappened to you. The commun-ity suffered several terribletragedies in the deaths of youngpersons, and except for thefamilies these are practicallyforgotten.

The heated issue of antlerlessdeer hunting was non-existentthis year, with conservationofficials reporting a good deerharvest. The controversial issueof serving intoxicating bever-ages had its ups and downs. TheTuscola County Board of Com-missioners approved the saleof liquor by the glass on Sunday,

Cass City village residentsover-whelm ingly voted downthe proposal of serving beer inthe park, and residents ofGreenleaf township approvedthe sale of hard liquor.

Many citizens will recallcertain events, however, andbelow are reviewed 10 of themore important and most inter-esting events of the past year.

SKILLED NURSING HOME

The construction of a $1mill ion skilled nursing homebegan in December and was thevisible conclusion of a sum-mer-long discussion filled with

meetings, proposals and count-er-proposals. The 117-bed facil-ity will provide care for elderlypatients and add to the ever-growing hospital facilities inCass City.

Besides the construction ofthe nursing home, an additionalwing to Hills and Dales Hospitalwas completed, and a newcardio-pulmonary therapy uni tadded to the patient servicesavailable, placing Cass City'smedical facilities among thebest in the Thumb.

THE ELECTION

While the county did not

Gifts await first babyFor 15 years now the Chron-

icle and area businesses havebeen showering the first baby ofthe new year with gifts.

And 1973 will be no exception.Twelve merchants will be pre-senting the new arrival with agalaxy of gifts.

It's sure that the first arrivalat Hills and Dales GeneralHospital will be showered withgifts, but just when the firstblessed event of the year willoccur is anybody's guess.

For the first baby business inCass City is nothing if notuncertain'. Some years baby

new year has been ushered inbefore revelers downed that lasttoast at the stroke of midnightand in other years it has been asmuch as two weeks into the yearbefore the first baby was born.

Whenever it happens theChronicle will be there to recordthe event and inform the proudmother of her luck.

She'll be taking home avaporizer from Wood RexallDrug and $5 in merchandisefrom Albee True Value Hard-ware, Brown's Grocery, andErla's Food Center.

The new arrival will have $5

gin cenincates from Schnee-berger's TV and ApplianceStore and Kritzmans, Inc. FromCoach Light Pharmacy willcome a Playtex nursing unitwhile Konrad's Bakery will give$5 in baked goods. A congratu-lation cake for the proudparents will be presented bySommers Bakery while IGAFoodliner will give $5 worth ofbaby food or merchandise. Acase of disposable diapers willbe presented by Ben Franklinand Thumb Appliance Centerwill have $5 in cash for firstbaby 1973.

waiver in its traditional Repub-lican stance and returned allRepublican office holders by anoverwhelming vote, this yearmarked the first time thatstrong opposition from theDemocratic party resulted onthe county level.

Competition was strong forcounty offices and commission-er posts, giving voters anopportunity to re-activate atwo-party system in the county.Despite heavy campaigning,which included a Democraticcampaign headquarters in CassCity, the Democrats suffered aresounding defeat.

ARTRAIN

The four-day visit of Artrainto Cass City in late Julycombined with the HeritageDays sponsored by the Cham-ber of Commerce was theculmination of months of workby volunteers and resulted inthe best interpretation of thepurpose of Artrain in the state,according to persons close tothe Michigan Council for theArts.

Mrs. William Milliken, wife ofthe governor and chairman ofthe Artrain committee, person-ally opened the arts festivalcelebration, which included ex-hibits, demonstrations, per-formances and a visit to thetrain, broadening the exposureof many residents to fine art

and letting local artists becomeknown.

HAWKS WIN THUMB B

For sports fans and commun-ity school boosters, the victoryby this year's football team willlong be remembered as the firstThumb B conference win in 13years. Under the leadership ofcoach Roland Pakonen, the RedHawks ended the season with a7-0 record.

NEW SWIMMING POOL

Another bright item for thecivic and sports minded was thepassage of the swimming poolbonds by a vole of 214-53, withconstruction of the new modernfacility expected to begin some-time next year.

Cass City was without a poolall last summer after stateofficials condemned and closedthe facil i ty that had been usedregularly since 1933.

TRAFFIC FATALITIES RISE

After all the good things thathave happened in Cass City, it issad to comment on the risingdeath toll, which has reachedthe gruesome total of 32, 5 morethan last year, and the fourthworst year in the past 13 yearsin Tuscola county.

gutter at one time.

No commitments were sug-gested as to what the local shareof the proposed swimming poolwill be or what state recreationbond monies will be used for.Althaver reported that the statehas acknowledged receipt of theapplication for swimming poolfunds. The prospects of havingthe application approved arenot as bright as they were asfunds for this are becomingscarce.

In other action, the councilformally adopted a number ofbudget adjustments in compli-ance with the financial account-ability laws required by thestate. After all funds weretransferred, revenue for theyear was up $7300 whileexpenditures were down $5500.The unexpected revenues in-cluded the $17,100 from the saleof the old fireball and thefederal revenue sharing mon-ies.

APARTMENTS

The council voted to tablegranting a building permit toSmith Builders of Caro for twomore apartment building com-plexes to be located north of thepresent apartment dwellings onHill Street.

The permit was delayed untila cooperative solution betweenthe village and Smith Builderscan be arranged to handle theexpected additional water run-off in that area after the twobuildings and paved parkinglots are installed.

LaPonsie suggested curb andgutter on Hill Street to HospitalDrive, although other solutionsare possible, such as a stormsewer.

Presently, a heavy rain over-flows the gutter at the bottom ofthe hill and floods the back-yards of residents there. Thecouncil feared that withoutproviding for a solution beforethe apartments were built, theproblem would only be com-pounded.

"If It F i tz . . . "What happened to Gertrude?

BY JIM FITZGERALD

When I heard about Melissa,it suddenly occurred to me:Whatever happened to Gert-rude, Florence, Madeline, Etheland Clara?

Melissa is my new grand-daughter and I don't resent herany more than I resent her bigsister who is named Michele,not Gertrude.

No lean, vigorous young manlikes to be called Grandpa. Wepotbellied TV watchers don'tlike it either. But what's done isdone. For almost 3 years now Ihave been cocking my earswhile telling people I am agrandfather. I am wait ing tohear them say: "But you don'tlook old enough." Nobody hassaid it yet. Rotten people.

My mother has better luck.People always tell her shedoesn't look old enough to be agreat grandmother. And as soonas they tell her, she quitskicking them in the shins. I lackmy mother's dedication. Shewouldn't go to the polls in thedaylight un t i l 18-year-olds wereallowed to vote.

Great Grandma, oy ine way,is named Gertrude, whichbrings us back to the subject fortoday:

Does anyone ever name ababy girl Gertrude anymore?

Or how about my 3 aunts —Madeline, Florence and Clara?Or my mother-in-law, Ethel?

All those names belong on theEndangered Species list. If wearen't careful, some grandnames will become extinctbecause no one will rememberthem. And these are names wi thcharacter; names that helpedmake this country great.

Answer honestly, men: Whatif you were going west on awagon train led by a cowboynamed Tonto? Or your snow-mobile broke down 50 yardsfrom the nearest tavern? Youneed the aid of a strong,resourceful woman. Who wouldyou rather send for the cavalry— Hortense, or Debbie? Maude,or Ji l l? Clementine, or Cheryl?Cora, or Bobbi?

No question.So what has happened to the

good old names? The bigproblem is that the few peoplewho stil l have them won't givethem to anyone else. They saythey don't l ike their names. Mymother swears she wouldn' t calla cat Gertrude.

Mother may be overly fussyabout names. I remember when! phoned to tell her about thebirth of my second daughter,Christie.

"What good saint was namedChristie?" Mother asked, re-minding me of my Irish Cath-olic upbringing.

"Good Christ," I said.All of which doesn't answer

the cr i t ica l question: Why don'tthe Gertrudes pass on theirgood old names? I think I havethe answer:

It would absolutely kill Gert-rude to be the great grandmoth-er of someone named Clara-belle.

By John Haire

'(And anyone else he can get to help);-:

AWtt::^^

A former Cass City resident, Phillip McComb, was recently namedsenior citizen of the year in Birch Run where he now lives.

The Chronicle hoped to have a picture of the award winner butunfor tunately the photo submitted was unsuitable for printing.

The picture was a Polaroid in color. That's one of the worstpossible combinations for newspapers that are printing black andwhite .

The temptation is to say that none will reproduce. But that's nottrue. A few wil l , most won't.

You take one heck of a chance when you submit any colof photo forreproduction. A black and white glossy print is best and will make usboth happy with the results when they appear in the paper.

Another note about pictures. You'll often find a Chroniclephotographer and our good friend Fritz Neitzel shooting the samenews picture. That's because the Chronicle staff takes pictures forthe Chronicle and Fritz takes photos for papers out of the immediatearea.

It's a mistake to assume that pictures we take will appearelsewhere or pictures taken by other photo pros will appear in theChronicle.

Happy New Year to you all. And some special wishes for specialpersons. . .to all the kids who didn't go swimming last year, a veryearly start and completion of the pool at Cass City Recreational Parkso that two seasons won't be dry.

To Cass City businessmen, another banner year as good as 1972when most owners reported that cash registers hummed at a sharplyincreased pace.

To members of Citizens for Improved Education, a fruitful yearwith expanded membership and expanded influence. To members ofthe school board, programs that meet the approval of a l l . . .the kids,the parents, the teachers and the administration.

To Coach Roland Pakonen. . .what can I say except more of thesame. To Coach Fred Hurlburt, a supply of "tall" pills for all Hawkbasketball teams.

To home owners everywhere, electricians, fuel dealers, plumbers,and carpenters when you need them. To electricians, plumbers, fueldealers and carpenters, phones that self-destruct when they ring foremergency work after 5 p.m.

And finally to all of you a safe and sane New Year's eve and a yearbetter than the best you've ever had before.

Elizabeth Blackwell, so I \v. <very interested in a book abouther l ife by Dorothy ClarkeWilson, entitled "Lone Wo-man."

What is remarkable is thestruggle that Elizabeth Black-well had to make, throughout

. her d i f f i c u l t l i fe , against thepettiness and closed minds ofdoctors and medical societies.

Elizabeth was born in Bristol,England, in 1821, and herstruggle for an education beganvery early. There was no schoolavailable where an intelligentyoung girl could go to receive agood education, and a boardingschool offered her all that wasdeemed necessary for a younglady of that day. She was taughtto read and write a little, todance, to play music, to paintpictures, and to do someneedlework.

Elizabeth's father was anunusual man. Because of badf inancia l conditions in Englandin 1833, he brought his family toAmerica and became interestedin the efforts being made to freethe slaves.

All the Blackwells were well-educated and read widely.When Mr. Blackwell died, Eliz-abeth found herself the virtualhead of the fami ly , unt i l hermother later was able to takecharge.

Elizabeth attended a school inNew York, where she was anavid student with a keen brain.However, inferior opportunitiesfor 19th-century women becameintensely galling to Elizabethand her three sisters.

Al this time, the wife waslegally the slave of her husband.It was stated that "the mancannot grant anything to hiswife, or enter into covenant withher, for that would be to supposeher separate existence." Amarried woman's earnings be-longed wholly to her husband.She could not hold propertyseparately from him, or make aw i l l , or a contract.

Elizabeth taught for a while,but she was unhappy becausenowhere did she find a soul withwhom she could enjoy stimulat-ing conversation. She did fall inlove with a man who was highlyeducated and cultured, but shewas agonizingly shy in hispresence.

The relationship came to anend when he said, as theydiscussed a political subject,"Come now; you shouldn'tbother that pretty lit t le headabout theories no woman couldpossibly understand. Leave thereforming of society to men. Wehave the responsibility of run-ning it." After this unhappy loveaf fa i r , she felt the need for somereal goal in l i fe , some all-con-suming purpose.

Someone suggested to Eliza-beth that she study to be adoctor, but when she talked withpeople about it, the responsewas, "What a preposterousidea." The only support she gotwas from her friend Harriet

Beecher Stowe, who said, "Wewonder if you realize what astrong prejudice exists; youwould either have to crush it orbe crushed by it ."

In 1846, about the t ime thatanesthesia was discovered,Elizabeth made up her mindful ly tha t she was going to studymedicine. There followed amost discouraging time whencollege after college refused toadmit her. Finally, in 1847, al i t t le college in Geneva, NewYork, accepted her. Bui hertroubles were only beginning.She was asked by the professornot to come to lectures onreproduction. When she ob-jected, the question was put tothe class, and they voted toallow her to come and listen.

When later she wanted-to beaccepted in a hospital in thedepartment of general medi-cine, she was relegated togynecology and obstetrics. Thisdistressed her, but she wentahead with the work.

Before long, she becamedistressed by the mass of moraltragedy around her, as shetalked to unwed mothers, manyof whom were in domesticservice and had been seducedby their employer. The in-justices done to helpless womenappalled her. She was dis-tressed by the amount ofprostitution, venereal disease,and the double standard ofmorality that she confrontedevery day.

She opened her own dispens-ary in New York City, with thefinancial help of some Quakerfriends, in a very poor district.Their medical needs weregreat, and soon her practicewas overwhelming. She wasimmediately ostracized by theNew York Medical profession,and her requests to visit hos-pitals were refused.

Elizabeth later prodded thetrustees of her dispensary toallow her to move to betterquarters, and it was the maledoctors who gave -her thegreatest resistance. When theCivil War started, Dr. Black-well called a meeting to discussthe problem of getting trainednurses. Three thousand womenresponded, but the mi l i ta rypeople responded by saying thatwar was "soldiers' business inwhich civilians have no right tomeddle."

The life of Dr. Blackwell wasnever easy, but she felt that shehad achieved a great tr iumphwhen the medical council inEngland registered her as aphysician. Later, she was in-vited to England to do what shehad done for American women,in her fearless battle againstsome of the most virulent socialevils.

When Elizabeth died, shortlybefore she was 90, some of thedoors that had been closed toher as an intelligent youngwoman were opened, and shehad served as an inspiration tomany Victorian women whowere uncomfortable and un-happy with the limitations andprejudices expressed by so-ciety.

It is interesting that thestruggle against prejudice to-ward women that ElizabethBlackwell started more than ahundred years ago still con-tinues today.

The biography of ElizabethBlackwell, "Lone Woman," waswritten by Dorothy ClarkeWilson, and published by Lit t le ,Brown and Co., 34 Beacon St.,Boston 6, Mass.

For years I thought I had ayear-long cold u n t i l I discoveredthe Truth.

As a doomed person who triesto cope wi th the s i t ua t i on . I keepmy nasal passages nice andclean so I can brealh by"blowing."

Back to nose-blowing. Mybrothers used to kid me aboutsounding l ike a goose honking.They were mean but I was l i t t l eand believed them.

And (hen there are theheadaches. There are head-aches, and then there areSINUS HEADACHES. I'm notsure if there is a casualrelationship between sinus cav-ities-you know, those eighlt r iangular and box shape shad-ows the commercials paint onsome woman wi th the look ofagonizing pain on her brow-and

Story teller

writes book

No! But it took the Scots to remind the world how friendshipreaches across the passing years. As the ball of light falls over TimesSquare once again millions of hearts will stir to the familiar strainsof Auld Lang Syne.

Other precious values reach across the passing years. One ofthem is faith. At its simplest it is man's awareness of friendship withGod. At its noblest it is man's confidence that time will unfold newexperiences of God's affection for us.

Something else reaches across the passing years. It is worship.Its moods and forms may gradually change . . . from the cathedralchant of the middle ages, to the simplicity of the cottage prayer-meeting—even to the rhythmic beat of so-called contemporary services.But worship itself does not change. In whatever mood or form, manexpresses his devotion to his Lord.

And whatever may have been your spiritual tempo, the New Yearin the churches of our community offers new incentives, deepeningopportunities, in faith and worship.

Uncle Tim From Tyre Says:

Dear Mister Editor:

The fellers has waited amonth and a half fer all the NewJcrusalems promised by all thepolit icians. Saturday night atthe country store they discussedthe situation up one side andclown the other, and they wasful l agreed the only thing youcan be shore about politics istha t the pie in. the sky before theelection is going to be egg onyore face the day after.

Clem Webster had saw thispiece in the paper where thisfeller had divided Americansinto three groups, the LowGrumbles, the High Grumblesand the Mela Grumbles. Clemsaid you can group politicianslow, high and meta on thepromise scale according to howhigh a office they want. Thepromisors run the show aforeelections, and the grumblersafter , was Clem's words.

General speaking, said Clem,they ain ' t no low or highspenders on the nat ional level,jest meta spenders. He had sawa report on a book by SenatorWil l iam Proxmirc called"Uncle Sam, the Last of the BigSpenders," and he said some ofthe stuff is cnul'f to make a metagrumbler out of ever taxpayer.

Fer instant , the senator saysthe U. S. had 12 mil l ion in them i l i t a r y in World War II. Wegot two mi l l ion now, but we gotthe same number of generalswe had in the war. Urbanrenewal has spent $12 bi l l ion lotear clown 400,000 homes, andthe program has bui l t only20,000 homes. The new SenateOffice Bui ld ing cost $78 asquare foot to bui ld , and it has a$27 mill ion parking garage thatputs the cost of ever parkingspace at $15,000. We've gotthousands of idle servicemen,allowed Proxmire, but we paycivi l ians $60 mil l ion to do theKP after we double the mi l i ta rypay scale.

They ain ' t no way, agreedClem, to make sense of aGuvernment that looks at everproblem upside down and insideou t . The way to make folks goodis liberalize sin, the answer tocrime is liberalize laws, thesolution to speeding on theroads is to raise the speedl imi t s . That's the kind oft h i n k i n g , said Clem, that causesfolks to mela grumble when thefederal Guvernment talks aboutrevenue sharing when all theygot in Washington is a debt w i thinterest nearly as big as thebudget. And more than a thirdof the people is l i v ing completeor partly off Guvernment"benefits" right now, saidClem.

It is hard, Mister Editor , to

see New Jerusalem. Personal, Iwasn't in favor of the Indianstearing up all that stuff inWashington, but I see theirpoint. When you consider theway they were running thiscountry and the shape it's gotinto in the last 200 years, youcan sec it's going to be all RalphNader can do lo get us straight-ened out.

The Great White Father hasbled hisself white building a doeverthing now—pay later so-ciety til he is deeper in the redthan the Redman ever dreamthis country could git.

Yours truly,Uncle Tim

Deputy aidsaccident probe

Tuscola county deputies as-sisted state police in the investi-gation of the accidental shoot-ing death of Robert David Watt,15, of Clio. The youth was killedwhen a shot gun accidentallyfired at the hands of a friend,also a juvenile.

The shooting occurred Dec. 20in Clio.

This tragic record of ourroads was written despite theeffort of 50 state troopersworking overtime as part of a$300,000 federal safety grant topatrol the county's roadways.

Although their work did notreduce the number of roaddeaths, the increased number oftickets written and driverspicked up for driving under theinfluence of alcohol kept districtcourt personnel busy, resultingin the hiring of an extra womanfor the court office and cloggingthe court calendar.

FARMER'S PLIGHT

This year, as last, the farmerswere treated unkindly by Moth-er Nature. After a particularlyhard winter with a long cold,wet spring, winter wheat cropswere largely destroyed. Plant-ing of most crops was aboutthree weeks late, and harvest-ing was hampered by more rainin the summer and fall . Yieldswere below average in mostcases.

Two hail storms ripped cropsof some farmers completely,with the result that federalemergency loans were madeavailable to help get farmersback on their feet.

FIRE HALL COMPLETED

The brand new ElklandTownship Fire Hall and Town-ship Building was completedthis year after a vote in 1971 tocontinue millage for its con-struction.

When firemen moved into thenew structure, the old fireballand library building was put upfor sale, resulting in a finalpurchase bid by Tom Proctor ofWood Drug Store of $17,100, aboost to village coffers. Theunexpected revenue was placedin a sinking fund for parking.

SNOWMOBILES

Local Department of NaturalResources conservation per-sonnel enforced new regulationsimposed by the state, whichresulted in petitions being cir-culated in an effort to openroads to snowmobile use.

Restrictions on the popularsport have increased since lastwinter, including the banning ofsnowmobiles on state gamereserve trails and the soon-to-berequired certificate for youngs-ters between the ages of 12 and16.

FIND MAMMOTH SKELETON

The skeleton of a JeffersonMammoth was excavated dur-ing the late summer by a MSUarchaeology student, with thehelp of volunteer workers, onthe farm of Dolan Sweeney. An8-foot tusk and other bonefragments were removed fromthe site, and excavation isexpected to continue next year.

Pin 7 Brownies

of Troop 764Seven girls of Brownie Troop

764 were pinned in investitureceremonies Thursday, Dec. 14,in the home of Mrs. MichelleZdrojewski, co-leader.

Mrs. Elaine Proctor, leader,performed the ceremonies.

Brownies receiving their pinswere: Michelle Adams, NadineHanson, Linda Arroyo, BarbaraWatson, Anna Gray, TammieStimpfel and Tammy Connolly.

Parents of the girls attendedand punch and cookies wereserved.

Council upctes

village snowmobile ordinancewas unanimously approvedTuesday night by the Cass CityVillage Council meeting inregular session.

The amendment changed therestriction of the original ordi-nance prohibiting anyone under16 years from operating a snowmachine inside the village.

AROUND THE FARM

Farmers askCynthia

By Don R. Kebler

Cynthia, MSU talking com-puter, has a growing family notonly in an increase in programsbut in old program improve-ments too.

About three years ago, thismarvelous touch-tone telephonecomputer was reported in op-eration with her first program.Her first program can computeany farm operation's incometax, using either or both com-mitted and estimated incomeand expenses before the yearend.

Today, Cynthia now has alarger family of 39 programsavailable to farmers and re-lated agribusinesses. Theseprograms are constantly beingadjusted to keep abreast of newdata and changes.

Suppose a dairyman, a feedoperator or a county extensionagent like myself wishes tobalance or determine a leastcost dairy ration. We would fillin the Telfarm data sheet forprogram Number 18. Data wewould include would be thehome grown feed and forages,the supplements, concentrateminerals, average weight of

•••>*:;

A New Year. A newbeginning. A time for men

of good will to share their dreamsand, together, lead the world to peace.

LOLA-KIM-DALE - LUCILLE-CELIA-JIM-LOIS

milk cows, production goalsplus other facts.

Once this data is entered onthe work sheet we dial Cynthiaon a special telephone and givethe data to her. In a matter ofminutes, Cynthia gives back theanswers including costs, rationbalance. We then can make feedstuff changes and Cynthia willtell us if the changes balance,increase or decrease rationcosts.

The time elapse in telephone'use could be 8 to 15 minutes persingle problem and average fiveminutes per adjustments whenseveral adjustments are madeat one call. Costs to use thetelephone for most of theprograms, including severaladjustments could be less thanten dollars. However, the pos-sible resultant feed cost ad-justments will more than comp-ensate the phone bill.

Some of the other programswill answer questions as -incorporate or form a partner-ship? Economics of beef feedingenterprise, profit in hog feedingoperation, 'corn and soybeanherbicide recommendationsand computing different typesof interest.

Suppose you are contemplat-ing the purchase of new equip-ment, wonder if larger equip-ment is needed, lease theequipment or custom hire thework done. These questions canbe answered too.

Maybe you have wonderedwhat is the largest acreage ofcorn your total business canmanage to earn the greatestreturns in the operation. Cyn-thia can answer this questiontoo.

Would you like to know thebest method of depreciation touse for tax advantage on thatnew capitalized purchase? Howabout those fertilizer recom-mendations or does it pay moreto produce navy beans or cornin your operation. Cynthia cangive the answers.

There are many other ans-wers obtainable through Cyn-thia, but how can the publichave this computer service? Allone needs is a telephone. Yourextension agents can visit you,hook up the special touch-tonetelephone in seconds, be readyto ask Cynthia questions andreceive her answers. Remem-ber you pay only the telephonebill and all you need to do iscontact Bill Bortel or myself toir;c Cynlh ia .

Have you shopped for chil-dren's sleepwear lately? Besure to read the labels carefully.

All children's sleepwear sizes0-6X manufactured since July29 will either meet the federalflame-retardant requirementsor carry a prominent labelwarning that they are flam-mable and do not meet thestandards.

You may find some sleepwearwhich will not be flame retard-ant and will not have a warninglabel.

All children's sleepwear mustmeet the standards after July29, 1973.

Until then you will need todecide whether to pay a littlemore for increased safety orsave a little money "by settlingfor less.

You have a part in preventingclothing fires. Industry andgovernment have done theirparts.

It's your turn - How? Reducethe sources of possible ignitionaround your home, buy flame-retardant sleepwear and carefor it properly.

Free enterprise produces thegoods, and today we need asystem that will lower prices.

It may be true—money can'tmake you happy, but lack of itcan make you mighty unhappy.

Bring in the yearwith towering hopes forpeak happiness and

health. And, top them off with thanks from us.

To say that the Thumb ofMichigan was pretty thoroughlypickled during the past sixmonths is not to infer that it wasin a sorry plight, but rather tocall attention to a crop that isquite a factor in bringing pinmoney to many farmers whocultivated limited acreages.William Penfold of Wilmot saysthat the company he representsin Lapeer, Sanilac, Tuscola andHuron counties purchased85,000 bushels of pickles in thatterritory the past season.

Patients not forgotten

at Caro State HomeDecember 22,1972

Dear Sir;

POINT OF VIEW

Youth's ability to see visionsof the future is its greatestadvantage over old age.

Christmas in a large institu-tion, contrary to popular belief,is a very exciting time. At theCaro State Home and TrainingSchool this came about through

-—the_efforts-of--many-charitable -and civic groups.

Where can we begin our"thank you's"?

Such groups as the ChryslerDie Engineering StampingGroup of Detroit, for the ninthyear, trucked almost $1500worth of individually purchasedChristmas gifts. The Tool De-sign Department No. 3509, alsoof Chrysler Corporation, solic-ited a second truck load fromretail stores and factory outlets.

The Saginaw VolunteerBureau-Voluntary ActionCenter, in an all out drive,managed to contribute a roomfull of new and used toys, manyof them collected and repairedby a former resident.

Other groups sponsored par-ties for the residents. One of thebiggest was held by the 754Radar Squadron of the AirForce Station in Port Austin.The station through Sgt. Muz-leski, coordinator of the project,had invited a bus load ofresidents to a special party. Allof the residents were ready togo when it was finally decidedthat the roads were just too icyto risk a bus trip.

You can imagine the disap-pointment in many faces. Un-daunted Sgt. Muzleski withpermission from the stationcommander, Major Heller,brought the party down to thekids. With the help of Mr. andMrs. John Johnson of Bad Axe,Mrs. Mimie Rigske, and Mrs.

Charlotte Muzleski, the partywent on as planned. ReverendGarret, United Protestant Min-ister in Port Austin was SantaClaus.

Kni t caps and gloves ormittens were purchased for allof the 70 residents who wereable to at tend the party as well

-as--over--$15f)-\vorth-of -athletic-equipment.

Thank you's should not stopwi th these people. At the AirForce Stat ion alone there were115 men and their wives who putin an enormous amount of timeand energy to produce onesuccessful party.

There were ind iv idua l s fromall over the state who broughtan hour of e n t e r t a i n m e n t . Therewere individuals who gave gi f t sto the residents of the CaroState Home instead of exchang-ing them. There were individ-uals who asked if they couldsponsor residents,

We had almost 4fiO residentswe had classified as "forgot-

ten". This means that they hadreceived no gifts or letters orvisits from people in the com-munity in the last year. Everyone of these people weresponsored by interested com-munity members.

-fi

Our residents are not able, for(he most part, to thank thepeople who sent them gifts orgave them parties. Many arenot literate, many only knowtha t Santa Claus came. Weknow that the numerous con-tributors understand this, andfeel as we do, that the importantthing is that Santa Claus didcome.

We hope that you have ahappy holiday season too.
