Hear The Flies Walk On Fence

HEAR THE FLIES WALK ON FENCE

----------------------------

DESCRIBES THE QUIETNESS AT WHITMORE LAKE

----------------------------

A Good Example Set for the Pathmasters of the County

----------------------------

Whitmore Lake, Sept. 25. - Since the football team left here last Tuesday the town is so quiet that you can hear the flies walk on the fence.

On October 3 there will be a dance at the Clifton house and the music will be led by Prof. Smock, of Ann Arbor. An invitation extended to all.

Fred Smith has been laid up with inflammatory rheumatism for a month and is confined to his bed.

Whitmore Lake Maccabee Hive will entertain Hamburg, Emery, Brighton and South Lyon lodges at the residence of Mrs. Geo. W. McCormick and elaborate preparations are being made for their comfort, on Saturday, Sept. 27.

The heavy rain of the past few days will spoil a large percentage of the bean crop, as two-thirds of the crop was pulled and lying in the mud to blacken.

Pathmaster Chas. A. Pray has set an example which we hope every pathmaster in Northfield will patern after. He has placed all the labor in his district in graveling the roads and has persuaded all the taxpayers to donate an extra day each in hauling gravel, which they cheerfully did, and he has now a fine gravel road which will last for years.
