In report filed with the common
council OF the village OF L'Anse at a
session held Thursday evening, Civil
Engineer ]. p. Edwards, of Hough-
ton, stated that change could be
made in the power for operating the
electric lighting plant from steam to
water under an appropriation OF
$1,000, and develop more than suffi-
cient power necessary to run the
plant. That the change. could be
made within thirty days, with an
absence of the lights for period Of
but three days.
Less than thirty days and it is
then Decoration day. Have you
ever given it a thought that it is a
day set apart as one in which we
should bare our heads over the
graves of those boys in blue. who
faced bardships and bullets that we
might enjoy the prosperity which is
so general Throughout this great
land? Let us not forget this fact
this year, but instead arouse our
selves and prepare to do our duty in
thi respect.
In spite Of the fact that the natives
of this burg have not as yet discard :
ed the Mackinaw and shoepacks and
donned the white duck suit usually
worn at this period Of the year, the
subject Of having q rouslng Fourth
OF July celebration in L'Anse is be-
ing quietly discussed. A number of
active gentlemen are of the. opinion
that it is about time for such an
event, and it is earnestly hoped that
as the season gradually warns up
so will the spirit Of the occasion.
Get together, boys.
