Frank A. Vale, n grocer of South

he has carried as a lucky pocket piece

And il has justified his faith I'm its

merely battered and war worn four

relatively enormous value as the Sec

Twenty five hundred dollars was re-

Numismatic association in Chicago
There are few individual coins of
greater value by record of their rarity
than the 1853 half dollar, even the
historic dollar of 1904 taking a back
seat wnen it comes to relative scare

More than half a century ago In his

he has taken the four bits piece from

sacrifice IL for its equivalent in bread

Mohawk Plans Tourney.

The Mohawk fire department is al
ready considering plans for an all con-
per country tournament. to be con-
Quoted next summer, in which running
teams from Calumet, Lake Linden,
Laurium, Hancock, Houghton. Huron
town. Painesdale, Atlantic and other
copper country towns will be asked to
participate as well as the Keweenaw
County running teams. This event is
not planned to conflict i'm any way
with the annual tournament of the up-
per peninsula tournament, but rather
tc be preliminary TO IL so that the cop
per country teams may be better pre-
pared. 1t may also result in more
teams representing this section than
ever before because of the interest
which is sure to be aroused. There is
no doubt that n venture of this kind
would prove a great success and serve
to promote a better feeling among the
members of the departments.
Events Next Saturday.
There are several events on the pro-
gram to be ran off at Ahmeck next
saturday, which were prevented by
rain last Saturday, including the ham,
mer and drill contest for Keweenaw
miners only, firemen's foot race and
other events for the nremen, possibly
some of last Saturdays events being
repeated, baseball game and a prom
enade at the new Ahmeek town hall
and fire hall 1t is expected the tour
ney will be largely attended. many Of
those who were present last Saturday
having expressed it as their intention
to be present next Saturday.

fast TIME AT
ANNEX MEET
RECORDS MADE BY KEWEENAW
COUNTY FIREMEN COMPARE
WELL WITH TIME FOR
v. p. JOURNEYS.

1t is interesting 10 note in connec
ton with the flremens tournament held
last Saturday at Ahmeel, II being the
FIRST tournament for Keweenaw coun-
~ firemen, that the time made i'm the
different events compares very favor
ably with the record time for the up
per peninsula firemens tournament.
When it is stated that several of the
events were run off with rain falling
and with the track much slower than
1t should be because of this fact, the
showing of the Mohawk hremen is re-
markable.
Mohawks time in the regulation hose
race, 20 2-5 seconds, is only three -nfths
of a second slower than the record
time for this event in the upper pen
insula association. At that Mohawk
was not represented by the same men
who took part in the upper peninsula
tourney, the team being comprised only
of regular firemen.
| The time for the coupler's race, which
was also won by Mohawk. 4 3-5 sec
onds, was only one-fifth of a second
lower than the upper peninsula record
In the ladder climbing contest, the
best showing probably was made, fol
In this event the upper peninsula rec
ord, 3-5 seconds was tied
There are several events remaining
on the program which were postponed
until next Saturday because of the
rain which fell during the afternoon
II is expected a large crowd will be
on hand to see the finish of the tourn-

Monroe County Should Have New Court House, Vote YES Next Tuesday

cate. That the proposition will
carry this time there seems little
doubt. People who care nothing
about county pride will vote for it
as a cold blooded business PROPOSE
ton. knowing that a fire would en-
tail upon the county losses of rec
ords and upon the citizens litiga-
ton that would in the end cost
many times the price of a new
building. People who own no real
estate, but who believe in keeping
up with the times, would vote for
it in order that their county may no
longer lag behind counties which
are less populous and wealthy. Be-
sides, the time has come when good
business men like the present
county judges can no longer close
their eyes to conditions. The peo-
pie must either authorize the con-
struction of a modern building or a
vast amount of money must be
spent in making the present old
shell conform to modern conditions.
And when it comes to such a choice
as it will come in the very near
future, ordinary business judge
ment will dictate that we choose
the former. There will be no more
attempts to blind the voters to their
real need by the cry that a new
building is wanted because of the
benefit it would be to Paris. for any
sane man knows a million dollar
structure would not bring one
penny more of business to Paris
than the present old fire trap brings
The proposition will be submitted
on its merits and will carry because
Monroe county people know they
need a new court house and can
afford to have it.
