WHATS the User

What is the use of ofmaking an attempt
to beautify one part of the village and
disfgure another? That is the question
which those who are compelled to U e
the highway leading to the depot ask.
The village authorities are doing their
utmost 10 clearify the streets and alleys,
while on the other hand individuals are
assuming the right to haul all sorts OF
rubbish and filth in the direction of the
roadway leading to the station ant
dumping it.
Some careless and thoughtless ind;
viduals has gone so far as to unload 9
heap of the rankest filth, where it
must be almost come in contact with
by either rig or pedestrian.
An investigation would also unvei
many other similar acts. A little at
tention to this mattar may avert man,
disagreeble conditions now existing

fif6edl
Anniversary:
Mr.. and Mrs. jeremiah Dault Enjoy
Distinction Of Having Passed Half
Century Matrimonial Milestone

Thursday was a day well to be re-
membered by Mr.. and Mrs. Jeremiah
Dault and their many friends and ac-
quaintances, the occasion being that of
the 50th anniversary Of their marriage.
Mr.. and Mrs. Dault were married APP
ril 4th. 1853, at Assinins, by Rev. FIR.
Jacker. During the greater portion of
their welded life they have resided in
L'Anse township and have always en-
joyed the good things allotted to man
kind.
This week Thursday, however, was
chosen as the most convenient day upon
which to celebrate the occasion, and as
a result, High Mass was said at Sa-
cred Heart church at 8 o'clock in the
morning, and the balance of the day
spent in receiving old acquaintances and
enjoying the many congratulations
which were showered upon them.
In the evening the Opera House was
the scene of grand reception given in
honor, by Mrs. William s. Crebassa.
There was general issuance of invita-
tions throughout the county and it was
very evident that the greater portion of
them were accepted, from the fact that
the building was taxed to its utmost ca
pacity.
The guests began to arrive shortly
after eight o'clock, and continued until
nearly 10 o'clock. Dancing and cards
were among the diversions of the even
ing and in either instance were enjoyed
to the fullest extent.
During the evening dainty refresh
ments were served in the dining room
of the Opera House, which formed an
important portion of the evenings pro-
gram.
Mr.. and Mrs. Dault were the recipi-
ents Of many tokens from the guests,
the most substantial being purse
containing the neat sum of $36 in gold,
a gift of the various business men and
others Of the village.
The affair was continued until late
hour, and even then it was with regrets
that the guests departed for their sew
eral homes.

Planning Observance
Of Memorial Day.
Arrangements Now on Foot For q
Gsaeral Recognition Of Dscora-
don Day In vAnse.

L'Anse win pay due homage to il
soldier and sailor dead. This has prac
tically been decided upon and It h
planned by those who have the mattel
in charge to make May soth day o.
general Observance.
Although details Of the plan have moi
fully materiaIiaed the idea which thu
committee has decided on will be some
thing after the following.
At sunrise all persons or organiza
tions owning or possessing flag are re-
quested to hoist same at half mast, ant
the day observed a. q general holiday
At 8 O'Clock . procession will bs
formed consisting of the L'Anse Ca
diets, Fire Department, Veterans of the
Civil and Spanish-American wars,
school children, accompanied by the
teachers, members of the council and
citizens. and if possible to secure, one
Of the best bands in the country.
Upon the formation of the parade the
lines will extend to the cemeteries,
where appropriate services will be held
and the graves Of the veteran soldiers
and sailors now lying therein will be
decorated.
Although complete plans for the aft.
ernoon and evening have not been fully
arranged, the idea in mind is to have q
complete musical and literary program
and an address by some prominent
speaker.
There is a move also to have what is
commonly known as Camp Fire, " al
which time "reminiscences by soldiers,
and veterans win be given, interspersed
with music.
Decoration Day is one of all holidays
which should be given proper recogni-
tion, and the fact that L 'Anse cemeter-
les contain the remains of numerous
soldiers and sailors who gave their best
efforts toward the welfare of our pros
porous country, it is only fair and right
that the most rigid observance of the
day should be had.
As soon as all plans are perfected q
general invitation will be extended to
the surrounding villages to join with
L'Anse for the day.

Filming Parties and People Clearing
Lands Should Re More Careful
at this Time Of the Year.

From nearly every direction new
comes of great devastation by fores
fires. This is just the time of the yeal
that such information is most flourish
ing and it is indeed sad state of af
fairs.
The damage done by forest fires IL
the past few years is of startling nature
and in nine cases out Of the ten the
origin may be attributed to carelessness
on the part of the people who are fishing
or clearing lands.
It is a well known fact, that the most
convenient method Of the latter is to burr
the stumpage but it is surprising te
to note how csrelessly it is done. Ii
many instances the. owner will ignite
several fires and walk away and leave
them to their own course, regardless
of the vast amount Of destruction which
they may do to their neighbor's lands.
Another evil and one which seems to
be the most idiotic of all, is the building
Of camp fires by fishing parties, and as
soon as their services are no longer
required, they are left to burn out of
their own accord which it invariably
fails to do until it has spread burning
embers broadcast and started numerous
blazes I'M different sections of the forest.
Then follows the greatest of all destruct-
ion, as well as endangering the lives of
others who may be in the woods.
An example Of the danger of being
caught in fire belt in the forest, the
following will show to some degree why
greater precaution should be taken.
P. H. Morgan, travelling statesmen
and Edward j. Real of Baraga were
caught by fire in the woods near Baraga
while fishing Sunday, and it was only
after struggle through four miles
of thicket, leading their horses, that
they were able to find road free from
fire and make their escape. They had
noticed the smoke, but were enjoying
the sport and believing that the fire
was not near had delayed their departure
until the blaze was within few hundred
yards Of them. They hastily hitched up
their team with the intention Of driving
away, and found that the road they in
tended taking was cut of. They had no
alternative but to unhitch the horses,
and leaving the wagon to. be destroyed,
they took the single course open to
them, leading over logs and through
the underground.
