COPPERDOM TO
GO LIMIT To
BRIGHTEN UP
Civic Cleanliness Week Opens
AuspiciousIy Today

Cleanup and paint-up" week is
hereand the manner i'm which residents
of the entire district delved into garb-
age and ash piles and other unsightly
and unclean debris today indicated that
the copper country was ready for it.
Every town and city in the county has
been organized in order that the
greatest good may be accomplished
with the forces available for the work.
school children particularly to whom
the Copper Country Commercial club
appealed were the most conspicuous
i'm the campaign and with the aid of
municipalities, they will make Hough-
ton county the cleanest in the upper
peninsula. Through a comprehensive
advertising campaign which has been
carried on for the past two weeks,
considerable interest has been aroused
in the plan and ii is confidently eX-
pected that much good can be accom-
plished during the course of the week.
Mayors of copper country towns lent
their aid by means of public proclaim
atoms endorsing the movement and
urging everyone to do his share of
making the copper country beautiful.
Street departments of the various
towns are prepared to do their share
of the work and commissioners urge
that garbage be put i'm barrels, boxes
bags or bundles and placed where it
will be available for the white wings.
In connection with the cleanup and
paint-up movement. much attention to
lawns and the outward appearance
of homes become evident Some peo-
! pie seemed heretofore 10 forget TO
cut the grass, paint the fence
or rake the leaves, sticks and rubbish
from their yards. But personal pride
moved many to lend support to the
movement.
Cleanup and paint-up week, orig
mated in st. Louis where the feat was
undertaken lone handed. Publicity
was given the plan and in the course
of a few short years, ii spread from
coast to coast. Civic societies grasped
at the opportunity to awaken civic
consciousness and the result is a
country wide movement of what was
experienced i'm the copper country to-
day and will continue for the week.

THRILLING
Experience OF Former Mt.
Vernon Man In The War
Zone

Rowing across the English channel
in a small boat, flying the British flag,
in order to escape the war in Europe,
is the unique experience of Hector
Desgain of Hartford City, Ind, for
mer resident of Mt Vernon. Mr.. Des-
gain arrived home last Sunday and i'm.
mediately wrote local friends of his
adventure.
The war had kept him in Charleroi,
Belgium, for some length of time and
he was particularly anxious to get
back to America. Hence, when an op-
portunity to escape presented itself,
he walked from Charleroi to the coast
town of Antwerp and there hired an
ordinary row boat. He shrewdly pur-
chased an English flag and attached
it to the boat. The trip across the
channel was uneventful, but, upon his
arrival in England, he was arrested
for a spy and had great trouble in Sc
curing his release. Finally effecting
this, he instantly booked passage on
a vessel sailing for this country and
arrived here safe and sound, none the
worse for his unusual adventure. Mr.
Desgain lived here five years ago and
was employed at that time in the
Wuchner bottle house.

MASONIC
Sign Saved The Lives OF
Fifty BelgianS

Ostend, Sept. "a, via London-The
power of Free Masonry is illustrated
by story told here by citizen of
Louvain, who with the Masonic sign,
says he saved fifty of his fellow citi-
zens from being shot to death by Ger
man troops.
This group of citizens, according TO
the recital of the Belgian Mason, had
been lined up for execution. The Ger
man firing party had their rifles at
present arms" when the narrator
gave a Masonic sign. The German of
ficer commanding the firing squad
happened to belong to the craft. He
recognized brother Mason and or
dered the Louvain Free Mason tc
leave the ranks. This meant sparins
his life. The Louvain citizen, how
ever, refused, saying:
MY fellow citizens are no more
guilty than | am. If you are going tC
kill them l shall be killed with them.
The German officer thereupon order
ed the release of the entire party.

And Household Goods Are To
Be Divided
Other Items Of Interest From
The Court House

In common pleas court on Wednes-
day the court concluded the hearing
of testimony in the case of John Hill
brant against ETA P. Hilbrant, suit
for divorce. The application of plain
tiff for divorce was refused, and the
application of defendant for divorce
was refused. Defendant was allowed
alimony in the sum of $3,500; $1,000
being payable each year beginning Oc-
tober 1, 1914, the last payment of $500
due and payable Oct. 1st, 1917. The
alimony ordered was made a lien on
the property. Plaintiff was ordered to
pay the costs except the costs of de-
fendant's witnesses. The installments
of alimony are not to bear interest. In
junction heretofore granted on the
crosspetition of defendant against
plaintiff disposing of his property was
dismissed. The household furniture
which was purchased since the mar
riage the coutr ordered divided as
equally as possible.-Newark Advo-
cate.

SHORTER
Are The Skirts Shown For
This Season

All skirts are not narrow; neither
are they all wide, which is another
way OF stating that according to the
general style character Of the suit a
woman may select moderately mar
row or moderately wide skirt, says n
New York Press writer In a review of
the new fashions. With the redingote
II has been thought advisable to main
tain the straight and relatively mar
row neither lines that have been in
vogue for the last three or four
months. Certainly the new width is
more comfortable; but except in dress
es and in the separate wraps and coat
widths the additional inches are not
remarkable. Some of the suit skirts
are heightened by circular empiece-
ment but they are the Exception to the
rule which shows the skirt straight
hung from a shallow yoke of the suit
fabric. The new skirts are amazingly
short-fully six inches from the
ground.
The lightweight gabardines of the
spring and summer have taken on just
little more weight and have been
used to develop smart tailor-mades as
well as top coats of the English persua.
sion. Then there are the serge velours
the glove cloths, the peau de souris,
the zibelines, broadcloths, and bewil-
dering variety of novelty reps and vel
ours. One must not forget velvet
meaning of course, velveteen and cor
duroy, too. They are to be immensely
popular if one may judge by the early
models. Sometimes they are combined
with satin surfaced. cloths or with furs,
OF show quaint, unexpected color
touches in the waistcoat. They are
beautiful beyond description, especial
ly the new panne velvets, which have
superseded the other kinds in fashion
able estimation. AS matter of course,
fur is chief garniture for velvet suits
and dresses-seal, kolinsky, ermine,
fox, mole, beaver and monkey.
The modish colors include seal
brown, dark green, ruby, dark blue
particularly dark blue serge), biscuit,
kaiser blue and certain of the high
tones of yellow and rose. Black. how
ever, will not be in the least disturbed
in it's secure position by the introduc-
ton of color. the latter in it's gayer
nuances being served for evening
gowns and wraps, in association with
metallic brocades and rich tissue laces
and galloons. 1t seems that we are to
adopt the idea of somber elegance for
daytime apparel, and brilliant chrom-
atics expressed in sumptuous fabrics
and simple lines for evening appear
ance.
