MAY FORM AERO
CLUB IN LAUR|UM
MOVEMENT ON FOOT AMONG
LAURIUM BUSINESSMEN TO
PURCHASE NEW WRIGHT
BIPLANE.

Are the aviators to invade the cop
per country? There is "A rumor in cir
culation to the effect that a party OF
prominent businessmen are consid-
ering the ACCESSIBILITY Of forming an
aero club and purchasing a Wright
biplane to be used largely for adver-
Using purposes. A representative Of
Wright brothers, the famous ayiators
was in Laurium last week for the pur-
pose of interesting the businessmen
in a venture of this kind but no de-
finite understanding was reached. 1t is
understood however that the matter
will be gone into more thoroughly dur
ing the winter months and IL is entire
ly possible that "A club will be formed.
While the copper country has taken
an active interest in the progress OF
air navigation, there have been no de-
monstratlons by the bird men in this
section. Several copper country men
have manifested an interest i'm airship
construction however, and plans are
now being made by a local inventor
for the construction of an airship dur
ing the winter months.
The plan Of the proposed aero club,
however is much broader i'm its scope
If it is decided to undertake the VEN
ture, an effort will be made to interest
sufficient capital to purchase a Wright
machine, at a cost of about $4,000. A
demonstration would be employed to
make short flights between the towns
of the copper country and the ma
chine would be used largely to adver-
tise the town and the business of the
members of the club. 1t is believed that
the airship would be in big demand
for the various fairs and celebrations
held in the upper peninsula during
the summer months and that no diff
Guilty would be experienced in realiz-
ing the purchase price of the machine
in a few months.

IMMIGRANTS COMING FROM
CHOLERA DISTRICTS WATCHED

ON account of the heavy immigra-

To the United states. Although the Of
6cials of the immigration service here
have no direct arrivals from Europe.

At the seaports, careful measures
are being taken to insure that no chol-

the infection enters the country Peo-
nile from the cholera infested districts
of Russia and Italy are subjected to

People are fleeing from the cholera

lAURIUM HUNTERS AWAIT
OPENING OF Deer SEASON

Seventy-four deer licenses have been
issued by Justice David Armit of
Laurium. acting as deputy for the
county clerk. to Laurium hunters. and
the indications are that before the
opening of the big game season on
Thursday the total number will reach
at least one hundred. A large num-
Der of hunters have already left for
the woods and others will depart to-
morrow. having remained i'm town for
the election today, Although the hunt
ers from lower Michigan will probably
not be as numerous this season, there
is no indication of a decrease i'm the
hunters from the copper country and
it is likely that the usual number of
deer will be killed.
Keweenaw county will probably be
a favorite hunting ground for copper
country sportsmen, although a large
number will pursue the fleet footed
deer i'm it's haunts along the South
Range. Deer are reported to be plenti-
full and the light snowfall has made
the conditions i'm the woods almost
ideal for the hunter. The animals can
now be easily tracked and the snow
is not of sufficient depth to work hard
ship upon the hunter.

latter part of this month, IL is believed
that the Christmas rush will start In

There has been no evidence OF tx
approach OF the holiday season in ,hc
postoffices so far, although il will be
necessary to local residents to + all

oPEN-AIR SKATERS BUSY.
Ponds are Now Frozen Over and Skst-
inu is PROVING Popular.

The youngsters OF Calumet and
Laurium are enjoying the first OPEN
air skating season of the season. Sew
eral small ponds and dams in the VIC
unity Of Calumet are now covered over
with fine sheets of ice and the winter
sports are proving popular. The larger
dams and ponds are not yet covered
with ice of sufficient thickness for
skating.
When the snow becomes a little
deeper, IL is expected arrangementos
will be made for large open-air rink
at the I.aurium playground, and 1t Is
thought this will prove the means of
providing healthy outdoor exercise for
a large number of children. Arrange
ments will undoubtedly be made by
the Laurium council to supply water
for flooding the rink and TO appoint a
carctaker to see that the crowds are
orderly and that the skating surface
IS kept IN good condition.

The proceeds from the war concert,
which it is proposed to hold, will be
devoted to providing flowers for the
decoration of the soldiers graves next

The concert held two years ago in

PROPOSED HOCKEY LEAGUE
500 Men Working to Organize Cir
cult in Northwest.


A. l.. Ferguson and w. l.. Murdoch,
Sault ste, Marie, Mich, formerly at
the head of the hockey organiza
ton in the Wolverine city, are anx-
ious for the formation of league
which shall include the American
and Canadian 500, Duluth Houghton,
Calumet and the Twin Cities, says the
Duluth News Tribune. At their insti-
cation letters have been sent to lead
ers in the sport i'm the copper country
the head of the lakes and the Twin
Cities.
The movement is favored among
the hockey enthusiasts i'm Duluth, but
1t is improbable that this city will be
able to join with the others because
there is no suitable place to hold the
games. Duluth has no enclosed rink
and there is no probability of obtain
ing one this winter. This drawback
alone is sufficient to kill any chances
of getting i'm the league.
When the Phoenix team of st.
Paul was up here last winter there
was some talk of forming "A circuit
similar to the one proposed by the
500 men. but the local players held
off as they anticipated they would
have no suitable place for the con-
tests.
When interviewed one of the Off
Gals of the local hockey league said
yesterday, "If some Of the local peo-
pie would devote the same energy to
the building of a new rink that the
outsiders do TO forming leagues, we
would have a first class circuit this
year with prospects for better one
in billie"

I feel that DR.. Robertson, or
'Lytt" as he was known to us, can
not pass from among US without an
attempt to express our loss and
show what a beautiful life of ser
vice he lived. Words will never
be able to convey to the world the
depths of our loss, and this is only
an expression Of love.
He needs no memorials built for
him, no eulOgies written about him
he built his own memorials in
every home he came into, his own
eulOgies he wrote by his life. His
service was not mercenary; he gave
to us his medical knowledge, but
that was only a small part. He
gave his physical strength, his love
and his sympathy. We got the
triple alliance of the three great
powers-LOve, Sympathy and
Help. He always came to you
bright and cheerful with his heart
open to serve you in any way he
might. If there were physical
pains he sOOthed them; if there
were any heartaches he entered
into them with you helped you
bear them and as he passed from
your home you knew your holy of
hOlieS was not intruded upon but
was the more sacred by his en-
trance, and above all was safe in
his keeping. He was a friend
whose lustre the strong acids of
poverty and misfortune did not eff
feet. He often went into homes
and gave his best service, knowing
and expecting no compensation;
yet we can say truly he did not let
his left hand know what his right
hand doeth.
God gave him to us for short
while only, but he filled his last
few months so full that his own
scarcely saw him. Let this be d
comfort to you, that God wanted
him to bless as mauy homes as it
wese possible for human to do.
They needed the touch of his life.
Our words cannot bear to the
bereaved ones the loss and grief |
we feel nor can they tell you the
life he. lived among us. He did
his duty no matter what field he
found it, great or small, splendid
or obscure, he did it faithfully,
thereby making him a strong, hap
py and useful man, tuning his life
into the echoes of the life of God.
A FRIEND.
