If Hancock and Houghton people
are to secure a harbor OF refuge appro-
priation at the next session OF con-
gress, the residents OF the two towns
must begin action at once, call mass
meetings. influence their congressman
and senators and do everything posi-
BILE to put the matter into the lime
light This Is according to state
ment of George H. Banks, local en-
gineer, when asked regarding the har-
Dor OF refuge problem. The engineers
have done all that Is possible. have
shown the necessity and feasibility of
the harbor and all that is now neces-
sary Is to bring the matter to the at
tention OF congress.
The matter was talked over some
time a year ago but nothing was done
as II was known that congress was
determined to keep down appropria-
tions. Now, II is understood the body
of senators and congressman will be
more liberal and Portage lake people
should get busy.
If the harbor OF refuge Is built, about
5000 900 will be needed.
The advantage n harbor would be to
Portage Lake Is easily apparent. II
would reduce the freight rate by wa
ter, make Transportation safer and
easier and bring additional boats
through Portage lake.
The matter will probably be taken
lup In the near future by the business
mems association of Hancock and
Houghton and steps taken to have the
matter brought forward in congress.
The request for an appropriation for
q harbor of refuge for Ontonagon is
sure to come up at the coming session
of congress and chances are that the
request will be granted. The shore OF
Lake Superior for ninety-three miles
has no place OF safety where boats may
tie up during storm and II is for the
purpose of rectifying this wrong that
harbors of refuge appropriations will
be asked.

of cutting out the real estate agents
has met with remarkable success, and
owners throughout the country are
availing themselves of this opportun-
ity to sell quickly places which for
long time remained in the hands OF
real estate agents, who failed to sell,
for the reason that the commission
which the agents had placed upon the
property had killed the sale.
1t is said that Mr.. Leonard Darby
shire, the president of the concern IS
doing more to assist property owners
to sell than all the real estate agents
in America combined and anyone
wishing to dispose of anything any

over 5000 ACRES
Protected by East Cape Girardeau
and Clear Greek District Levee
Another District Proposed.

A large corner of Alexander county
will be protected by the proposed
levee to be built by the East Cape
Girardeau and Clear Creek drainage
district commissioners. The commits
sioners' roll states that the cost of
making the improvement and drain
ing the land would be $79,273.02 while
the annual cost of maintenance
would come only to $500 year. The
land improved by the levee and pro-
tected is 9,391.SS acres and is located
in Sections 5, 6, Z, s, 8, 16, II, Is,
|l9, 20, Il, q, 2S, 20, 80, 81, 30 and
SO. in Township ii range 3 west and
sections ~. 10, %. "a, 25, 26, and 26,

Another levee and drainage district
| is proposed by the men in the yiein-
lily, which will take in the land from
the East Cape Girardeau and Clear
Creek levee- eastward to the hills,
With these two levees, the northwest
corner of the county will be safe from
the disastrous overflows which have
visited the farmers there in the past
at frequent intervals.

The Superintendent is well pleased
al the attendance. the discipline and
the progress Of the schools here, it
is pleasing to note the attention the
superintendent gives to minor things
which others pass by unnoticed, show
ing that he is not only interested in
the progress of scholars and teachers
alone, but in the comfort and sanitary
conditions that prevail and sees to
the furniture and other items which
are needed are supplied, which other
times have been sadly neglected. 1t
is interesting to note that at the pres
ert time there is more children at
tending school. The attendance is
Uniform, less truancy and better dist
Dline and the school affairs are in
better condition than at any former
time.
1t would be well Of the parents of
scholars would pay a little more at
tention to school affairs so as to keep
in touch with the work accomplished
by encouraging Their Children in their
studies, it would prove great help
Ito the teachers AMI would also help
towards carrying on to perfection the
work of the greatest institution III
