The commissioner of street clean
ing in New York city, Mr.. Wood
bury, has been explaining how the
municipality derives revenue from
every bit of street sweeping and re-
fuse collected in New York and he
is proud of the good results from
the citys incinerator and "digest-
er. ''Now what do you suppose"
he said, Frequently clogs up our
sitter? Why hairpins Do you know
we sell tons of them and get quite q
revenue from them? And what do
you suppose came out of the digest
er the other day? Two 81 bills. After
the refuse is sifted," he continued,
sit goes into the digester and later
on is covered with oil. The top is
skinned off and what do you think
we do with that? Why, that goes
to Holland or France and comes
back to this country as perfumery. T"

BREWSTER WON.
Bliss vetoes the Bill to Abolish
His ONCE.

As was expected, Gov. Bills.
vetoed the bill to abolish the offic,
OF chief deputy game and fist
warden, now held by Charles E.
Brewster, of Grand Rapids. The
bill originally passed the house by
vote of 81 yeas to 20 nays. 1t will
require 81 affirmative votes to pass
it over the veto.
In vetoing the bill Gov. Bliss stat.
ed that the Office of deputy game
warden was one especially adapted
to Michigan's needs and pointed to
the fact that the state has a shore
line Of about 1000 miles in addition
to its many inland lakes and rivers,
which constantly need looking after.
After dilating( upon the work Of the
game warden's department the gov
ernor closed with the statement that
it looked as If the bill abolishipg
the Office OF deputy game
warden had been designed
with view to getting rid
Of the present chief deputy rather
than the abolition OF the Office. "If
any reason exists why the present
chief deputy is not proper official
the game and fish warden will recog-
nize his responsibility and preform
nis full duty in the premises" the
governor concluded.

BASKET BALL GAME
Deciding Contest Of the Series
Won by the .sBlues.-Score,
12 to 6.

ladies brought their basket ball
season to close, in the deciding
game Of the series. Judged from q
scientific point OF view the game
was not so good as the one before
it. While it presented to the specta-
tors more spectacular plays, the
game at times was too rough. The
splendid team work of the Blues was
weakened, too, and they depended
more upon the strong individual
playing for their game. There is
no doubt that the Blues earned all
they got and well deserved the vict-
ory but it is a pretty general opin-
ion among those who witnessed the
games that large element Of luck
was with them and that the best
team work was done by the defeated
team. However, basketball, like
any other game is full OF uncertain
ties and hard luck stories never
count. A game is a game and the
victory and the championship be-
long where they were won.
1t would be difficult to single out
any one for special mention as all
the girls played for all they were
worth and did it well. The first
half the honors were all with the
Blues and when time was called they
had good lead on the basket. In
the second half the Reds braced and
held the Blues a little closer, mean
while taking a hand in the scoring.
1t was during this half that the best
playing Of the evening was done.
The early lead of the Blues was too
great, however, and the score when
time was called was IL to 6.
For a great many reasons the
basket ball has been a splendid
thing for the young ladies of
L'Anse. 1t has given them a good
form exercise and has furnished
something to liven up the otherwise
quiet life. The charge that basket
ball is too rough game for young
ladies is abundantly disproved by
the fact that during the months that
they have played there has not
been a single accident OF serious
enough character to cause the stop
ping of a player for more than
minute or so.
We understand that the young
men are talking OF organizing next
fall if suitable place can be found
for playing. With both the young
men and the young ladies indnlging
in basket ball and the older ladies
in physical culture, there is no dan
ger of our having lack of exercise.
Cant the men find something to do?
Before the game last Saturday
night, Miss Hazel Mason, on behalf
Of the young ladies of the basket
ball teams, presented Mr.. Davis, the
instructor, with very handsome
pin, as token of appreciation of
his services the past winter.

A pessimistic editor thus moral
ICES on life as he views it: How few
of us are really our own boss! The
married men are subject to their
wives, the bachelors obey their, land
lady, old maids cater to their cats
and poodles, while all OF us bow to
that weak thing called public opin-
ion. We came into this world with
out our consent, leave It against
protest, and kick at everything that
crosses our path, but all to no pur-
pose. The old world goes on not
caring whether we live or die, laugh
or cry, shout or sigh, not caring q
farthing why, till we turn up our
heels and die, and then maybe we
freeze or fry.
