EAGLES ENTERTAIN
Picnic Sunday an Event of Much
Pleasure.

A most enjoyable time was enjoyed
by Ely Aerie. f. o. e. at the New
Park Sunday. Although the weather
was rather.raw, the dancing pavilion
and the refreshment stands were well
patronized. The Ely City band fur
nished the music for the dance and
gave satisfaction.
Next Sunday the Austrian societies
give another picnic at the park. Elk
cursions will be run at an extremely
low rate from the Mesaba towns the
train leaving Hibbing at O'Clock
and taking on passengers from all
towns enroute to Ely.

while the play has steadily held its
popularity, the book is now almost
forgotten. 1t was revived In New
York city last spring and actually
drew larger audiences than it did at
the presentation of the original pro-
duction years and years ago. This
great play will continue to entertain
as long as we have laughter to reward
wit, tears for the sorrowful, and
sympathy for the fallen. 1t is still
as fresh as the newly minted coin and
has the fizz of the sparkling cham
