Law, 1873 Pine street, Detroit, is still
urging on government authorities a
project, the realization of which, he
believes, would save the lives of many
sailors who now brave death i'm the
violent storms that sweep over Lake
Superior.
For years Mr.. Law, who Is widely
known as the missionary of the Great
Lake" has been striving to interest
the federal government i'm the con-
struction of a harbor of refuge at Cop

shore of Keweenaw point, not far from

BE DISPLAYED IN HOUGhION
Houghton County Art Association
to Enable Copper Country Folk
to View Paintings.
LIBRARY A SALON NEXT WEEK

Through the efforts OF the Houghton
County Art association the people of
the copper country are TO be given an
opportunity next week 10 view one Of
the finest exhibits OF paintings ever
shown outside of the large art CEN
ters of the world. AT a meeting of the
association which took place last even
ing at the residence of Mr.. and Mrs.

decided that the association would

to this village next week and place
them on exhibition at the new library
from Tuesday until Saturday, after
moons and evenings.
This collection of pictures is now
at Marquette where the pictures have
excited a great deal of favorable COM
ment from the public and press. There
are nearly one hundred pictures in the
collection, about forty being oil paint
ings beautifully framed and the others
being water colors. one of the fea-
lures of the exhibit is the works Of
Swenson the great Swedish painter,
who has achieved great fame because
of his fine portrayals of the snow
scenes of his native country, with the
sunlight effect.
There are also in the collection,
landscapes from Denmark. Scotland
and other countries besides our and
the entire showing is well worth a long
trip to see. 1t is the intention OF the
association to arrange with the school
authorities schedule by which it will
be possible TO allow each class I'm the
schools to see the pictures at some
time during the week. Those arrange
ments will be announced later. There
will be no admission fee charged 10

art association in the interests Of ed
ucating the people to an appreciation

Conditions of Lake Superior"
Copper Harbor." says Mr.. Law. rs

date all the boats in Lake Superior at
one time. but owing To an obstruction

trouble getting i'm. There Is no point
on the great lakes where a life-sav-
ing crew with "A power boat is needed

There Is no other place on Lake

1t would only be necessary to remove

and 400 feet wide leading into ma

THE obstruction to boats entering
the bay is a barrier Of solid rock so
feet wide over which there is about
II feet of water. outside there IS
water of great depth. free from hidden
rocks or shoals. There is abundance
of water inside where vessels escaping
from storms would find an anchorage
almost as smooth as a mill pond"
Mr.. Law points out that this par
ticular section OF the coast. though
jutting out almost into the path OF
vessels across the lake, has not been
provided with a life-savlng station,
those nearest TO Il being at Portage
ship canal on the west and Marquette
on the east. He advocates transferring
to Copper Harbor one of the FIVE life
saving stations I'm the As miles Of coast
between Whitefsh Point and Grand
Marais.
"Near Copper Harbor is hill 500
feet high that could be used for n
storm signal station. and lookout FOR
n life saving station" he says. "From
the tower with the aid OF marine
glass. the lookout could see 20 miles
Of the coast"
Mr.. Law would have life saving
stations established also at outer Is
land and Isle Royale, near which sew
eral bad wrecks ha/t taken place in
recent years.
Capt. Mccormick, keeper of the
Portage Lake Life Saving station,
knows Mr.. Law well. He says "He IS
n good old fellow" But Capt. Me-
Cormick believes that Copper Harbor
is row a good for nothing harbor for
the purpose and that the government
need not expend anything on it.
What he would like early federal
action on instead Is the life saving
station at Eagle Harbor. He says that
the appropriation for this was made
three years ago and a site surveyed.
Stree then he has heard nothing from
the scheme. Captain Mccormick has
long been an advocate OF life saving
station at Eagle Harbor because It -
a dangerous point and is too far from
his station to permit him to give
prompt assistance TO boats I'm trouble
