NO EXERCISE.

We have the impression that we get
nervous troubles from today's rush
of life. But impressions and serious
thought often yield widely different
results. We do rush about lot, but
man never went so little on his feet
as here and now. Cars, elevators, au-
tomobiles carry where man listeth
without scarcely the crook of knee.
Actually, there are men in this city
who travel toward hundreds of miles
a day and scarcely get enough exer-
else for the final cellular digestion of
the rich. greasy, juicy vinous viands
they devour. And never since crea-
tons dawn, except in aldermanic
London. has the glutton's platter been
so stuck under business mems noses
all the time from the first thing in
the morning TO the last thing at
night. once i'm while the French
man, the Dutchman and the English
man stuff with these intensely rich,
juicy gorges. But like Haffey's whis-
key they are here for us all the time.

LOCAL NORWfGIANS PLAN
FINE PROGRAM FOR MAY II
Norwegian independence Day to
be Properly Observed
in Calumet.
FAMOUS SINGERS ARE COMING

Norwcgians OF Calumet are already
planning for the celebration of May
II, the ninety sixth anniversary Of
the granting of Norwegian indepen-
dencc. and If plans do not go amiss
the entertainment will be by far the
best ever attempted I'm this section.
The Norwegian Fremad society. has
named committee consisting CT
Thomas Tunen. l. w. Frimodig and
ole Olsen, to take charge or the ar
rangements for this entertainment. and
some Of the details already have been
disposed of.
The Calumet theater has been en-
gagged for this entertainment which
will be i'm the nature of a concert. Ne
gotiations are now in progress for the
services of well known dramatic
reader of Minneapolis to assist in the
program. Assurances have been re-
ceived from a famous Norwegian bar
itone and a soprano who are now In
New York that they will come 10
Calumet to take part in the program.
Both OF these singers come direct from
Norway, and are now entertaining rec
ord breaking crowds in New York city.
The feature will undoubtedly be one
of the finest that has ever been at
tempted. No local talent will ap- ,
pear on the program.
The arrangement committee has de-
cidcd that the entire program will be !
rendered in English so that it viii BE-
almost ms much enjoyed by the public |
at large as by the Norwegians. Each /
number is being selected with the /
utmost care, and the program is sure /
TO win the appreciation of all.
A special train will be chartered for
the accommodation of Ishpeming and I
iron country Norwegians who desire
to come to Calumet for this occasion
As the celebration will undoubtedly be
the biggest attempted i'm the upper
peninsula it is expected that a large
number of out-of- town people will be
present.

REV. CHARLES STFIllf HAS
PLAN FOR A NEW MOYEMFNI
Presbyterian Worker, Who Re-

BENEFIT ALIEN POPULATION


Church work is at high tension JUS
now. and new methods and enter
prises are being brought forth. The
latest scheme OF magnitude. having
authoritative backing and likelihood
OF widespread adoption. is a sort OF
home missionary student volunteer
movement-except that il is not linn
tied TO students. The aim is to Sc
cure general enrolment of Chris
tians, chiefly young people, who will
pledge themselves TO do definite

Contamination of the alien popull-

from the fertile brain of the Rev.
Charles Sickle. superintendent OF the
departments OF immigration and
church and labor OF the Presbyterian
church, who visited in Calumet short
time ago and lectured under the aus
pioes OF the Y. NJ. c. A.
The movement has just been
launched, as January is the month
devoted by many Protestant churches

question. There are other reasons for

tency of this agency for foreign mis-
sions causes people to ask, "Why can
not something equally great be done
for the needy in our homeland?"
