New Society
Gets Charter.
French Canadian Sons and Daughters
Add One More to List OF
Orders.

Baraga county and especially L'Anse
can now boast of one additional num-
ber to the ranks of secret and benefici-
ary organizations. This was made pos
sible by the perfection Of matters and
the formal opening of the joint order
of French Canadian Sons of America,
which took place in L'Anse Opera
House Sunday afternoon last.
At 2:30 o'clock the meeting was
called to order, and after such prelim-
mary work as was necessary had been
completed, the duties in connection with
the organization of the order was taken
up.
Secretary General E. Bertrand, of
Marquette, was present and took charge
of the affair, and conducted the busi-
ness in manner both pleasing and in
teresting to those in attendance.
The new society has sister or aux
Hilary, which was also given birth at
this time and is composed of almost
equally as many members as the broth
er order.
At the conclusion of other duties the
the officers for the ensuing year for
each branch was elected and which are
as follows:
President-George Sanregret
Vice President Eugene Cote
Rec. Sec. Charles Marceau
Financial Sec. Oscar Sanregret
Charles Rambaud
Guard-Frank Collins
Directors-W. S. Crebassa, John
NORM, Arcade Bohmier.
The officers for the Ladies' Auxiliary
are as follows:
President Isabella Collins
Vice PresidentAA Agnes Crebassa
Rec. Sec.-Marie Steinbach
Fin. Sec. c.-Leona Sanregret
Treasurer-Albina Roberts
Guard-Agnes NORM
Directors Sanregret, Exilda
Trudeau, Belemire Charette.
Both orders start out under the most
suspicious circumstances, the men hav-
ing in all nineteen charter members and
the lauleS elghteen.
The establishment of this society in
the county is one of considerable i'm
portance, and now that it is successful
ly launched, credit falls to Atty. JOS
eph l. LaBrecque, of Baraga. Mr..
LaBrecque has spent much time and Ia
Dor in the interest of the members and
society and is certainly deserving of an
abundance of praise and congratula-
tions.
1t is understood that joint meeting
is to be held at some near date, when a
number of new members will be added
and steps taken for the upbuilding and
further promotion of the society with
in the county.

SCHOOL MONEY PAYABLE

as Its Portion Of the Annual
Distribution Of the
Interest on
Fund.

The annual apportionment of the
primary school funds was made by the
department of public instruction We'd
nesdsy, and it is at the rate of SITS
per capita, requiring the sum of
81, ,321, ,575.4

stated that the state had to borrow
money. Negotiations were entered into
for the loan of $75O,OOO from three
prominent banks of Detroit. This loan
will be met by taxes, in January.
The distribution in the upper four
tier of counties are as follows, Baraga,
So, 27S.76; Houghton, s43, 5000; Ke-
weenaw, $2,764.34; Ontonagon,

Mrs. M. j. McCabe who has been
spending the past ten days in L'Anse,
on pleasure trip left Friday for
Hancock, where she will visit a few
days with her brother, before returning
to Somers, Mont. Her many friends
here regret her departure.
Among the first to return to this
village with trophies of the season were
Robert Reynolds and Thomas Edwards.
The former landed handsome buck
and doe while the latter returned with
monster buck. 1t is stated upon good
authority that there are more hunters in
the woods this year than in many
former ones and in the Arvon district
it is estimated that there is at least
thirty-nine different parties, with no
less than three to party and as high
as ten.
The pole and wire line which is to
con luct the electric current from the
power house to this village was COM
pleted Wednesday. Now about all that
remains is the completion of the work
at the power house, and the transferr-
ing of the dynamos and accessories.
This it is expected will be done next
week at which time the village will be
in darkness for few nights while the
change is being made. So it will be
well for those now using the lights to
dig up the old lamps and be prepared
FIR the time. q

A Function
Extraordinary.
L'Anse, BaraSa, Skanee, PequaminS
and Other Towns Turn Out
IA Masse Friday
Evening.

Friday evening L'Anse Opera House
was the scene of one of the most extra
ordinary social functions which has TAX
en- place within this village in its his
tory, the occasion beng that of a boun-
tiful banquet and ball given by Messrs
Martin Voetsch and John o. Maxey, to
their numerous friends and acquainnt-
ances.
The event was the outcome Of de-
sire on the part of these gentlemen to
entertain some time ago, but owing to
both being involved in the recent politi-
cal contest, were unable to devote the
time necessary for the successful car
rying out of the affair on such an elab-
crate scale as was maintained last ev-
ening.
During the middle of the week, and
so that no one in the county would be
slighted, large number of neat bills
were scattered broadcast, bearing q
general invitation to all.
To the satisfaction Of both gentle
men and likewise to their wives, who
labored increasingly, the invitation
was accepted in its fullest form, and
never before has L'Anse Opera House
enjoyed the distinction of containing
such large and jolly crowd Of people
as was present at this time.
An elaborate supper was served from
until $50 o'clock, and as soon as the
first sitting had finished, music was be-
gun in the ball room.
Music of exceptional quality was fur
nished by STEMS orchestra of six piec-
es, and it was well along into the .'wee
sma' hours" of morning before the dy-
ing strains of the final waltz were
heard.
That the public in attendance was
greatly pleased over the affair, was
manifested at frequent intervals dur
ing the evening by the showers of
thanks extended to the hosts and their
wives and the liberal turnout which
was accorded them.

Skanee To Have Hotel.

Rumor has it to the effect that Skanee
is to nave an up-to-date hotel.
Negotiations are in progress by parties
from that place with C. H. Anderson
of this village, for the purchase of a
prominent piece of property belonging
to him, with an object in view of estab-
fishing hostelry thereon. AS the deal
has not fully matured, and as matter
of courtesy we withhold the names of
the parties thus interested but it is a
safe assumption that should the deal
carry, Skanee will be able to boast of
one of the neatest hotels in the vicinity,
and fill long felt want in that place.

IMPORTANT MOVE SOON.
State Nurses Association VIII Present
Bill to Legislature Requirin6
All Who FOLLOW Profession
to Hold License.

Ohc Va shC ihoiy piio Shos WIN DS
introduced to the legislature this
winter and one in which the majority
of local physicians and nurses are in
terested. will be one prepared by the
Michigan State Nurses association,
providing for the examination, licens-
ing and registration of nurses and for
the punishment of offenders against
the act.
The members of the association, of
which Miss Elizabeth l.. Parker of
the School for the Blind, is president,
states that the registration of nurses
is important because it is an educa-
tional movement to better the nursing
service to the sick.
The objects of the passage of the
law the nurses say are to bring about
q more uniform method Of training
nurses, thus giving the public the as
surance that all graduate nurses are
trained along the same line in essen
tial matters; to raise the standard of
training schools and thereby improve
the hospital and private service for
the sick, to give credentials that dis
tinguishes qualified nurse from one
who is not qualified and who may be
a mere pretender, thus affording pro-
lection to patient, to doctor employ
ing a nurse and to the nurse, who has
spent time, strength and money in
qualifying for her profession and who
without registration, has no legal
status.
The nurses claim that women in
their profession are mostly wage earn
ers, who, in asking for the protection
of the people, who need their services,
ask only that they be judged as to
their moral qualifications and profess
sional fitness by members of their own
profession. They claim that in al,
other professions the standards of ed
ucation are regulated and prescribed
by the members of such profess ion,
who direct their affairs.
The nurses feel that they ought in
all fairness to be subject to board Of
control, composed of persons of their
own calling.
The bill carries with it no demand
on the treasuery of the state, because
the fees meet all expenses. The legis-
lative committee is composed of Miss
Mary Haarer, of the University Of
Michigan hospital, and Mrs. G. O.
Switzer, Ludington.
The bill provides that the governor
shall appoint. with consent of the SEN
ate, FIVE residents of the state as a
board of control from list of at least
ten names from a list submitted an
nually by the Michigan State Nurses
association. The majority of the ap-
pointees, the bill states, shall be chos-
en- from those actively engaged in
nursing and who have graduated from
training schools givien two
years course, served in hospitals Of
good standing and who have had five
years experience in nursing.
The bill also provides that the
board shall meet at Lansing on the
first Wednesday in November, 1909,
for the purpose of organizing.
1t is further stated that after De-
cember /, 1909, all men and women
engaged in professional nursing in the
state or whe wish to begin such work,
must make application to the board to
be registered. The registration is to
be granted to such applicants as COM
ply with certain conditions.
