COPPER COUNTRY
PYTH|AN LEAGUE
LaurIum Lodge Formally With
draw From U. P. League

c. Arthur Caldwell of Laurium, tenn
porary chairman of the committee of
copper country Pythian lodges which
is directing the preliminary steps to-
wards the organization of a Copper
Country Pythian league, expects to
call meeting of the committees soon
To perfect permanent organization
and to take active steps to bring this
league into existence
The initiative towards the forma-
ton of this league was taken by Iaur-
ium lodge at the recent copper coun-
try Pythian picnic and reunion at the
Electric park. The temporary COM
mittee was formed at that time. Fol-
lowing out the suggestion made at
this outing, the Laurium Pythians
formally withdrew from membership
i'm the Upper Peninsula league at the
Ishpeming reunion, citing as their
reason the fact that the expense of
participation in the degree team con-
tests which always are a feature of the
upper peninsula reunions, falls heavily
VII 'iN ioN"i ibhBt0 anu IL IIluNI greater
than the expense of participation in
such contests held under the auspices
Of a local league.
Although none of the other copper
country lodges have withdrawn from
the Upper Peninsula League, all of
them are interested in the Copper
Country League project and are willing
to cooperate in forming the league,
participating actively in both organ
izations. There is really no objection
to this for the expense Of participating
i'm the Copper Country League con-
tests would be practically nothing and
would be borne by the individual mem
bers rather than depicting the funds in
the lodge treasury. The experience
gained in such n league contest would !
prove of great practical benefit to the |
teams participating In the upper pen
insula contest.
1t is felt by Laurum members that |
the Copper Country League project is |
certain to prove n success and the ac-
tual formation of the league is eagerly |
awaited.

TO DISPOSE OF OLD HALL.
Building Will Give Way to Grass Plot
Rush New Building.

1t is the intention of the village
council at an early date to dispose of
the old town hall, the building which
is being temporarily occupied as head
quarters OF the village The council
already has announced that the struc-
ture will be sold if a suitable offer is
made for it and the lot will be con-
verted into n grass plot upon which, at
some future time, a fountain may be
erected. Within month, the council
will be able to occupy its new home
and steps to dispose of the building
then will be taken.
The alterations on the town hall
have so far progressed as to permit
of speculation as to when the work
can be completed. The tower will be
finished in a few days and with it, the
laying of the remainder of sandstone
and trimmings on the exterior. AS fast
as this is being done, work on the in
terror is forging ahead and i'm fact sew
eral of the rooms could now he occu-
pied. The Jail has been entirely COM
plcted the cells having been transfer
ed from the basement last week. 1t is
not believed that the council will oc-
cupy the new addition until the mid
die of october.
Whether or not public exercises will
attend the reopening of the hall has
not been determined but this project
likely will be taken up at the next
meeting of the trustees.

EUROPEAN MAIL
STILL IN DOUBT
Letters to Germany and Austria
May Never Reach De stination

Postmaster LOwney has received
word from the post office department
in Washington that the postal authori-
ties cannot guarantee that letters for
German and Austrian points will ever
reach their destination. This condl-
ton in reality has obtained since war
was declared and it therefore is likely
that considerable mail sent from this
city is held up at neutral port.
So far as this government is con-
cerned, every effort is being made to
get the mails through. But there are
no steamers running direct to German
or Austrian ports these days. The
next best thing is being attempted
Mails for the countries which are bat
Ting with the allies are sent to the
nearest neutral country. Berlin and
North German letters are sent To Hol-
land. Other letters for the south are
routed by way Of Spain and Italy.
Austrian letters go via Italy. But after
they leave here there is no way of tell
ing whether they complete their jour
ney.
This is very serious matter to
many Germans and Austrians i'm this
country. There are aged fathers and
mothers, sisters and young brothers
back home i'm the fatherland who have
depended on Temittances sent from
this side each week. This is now cut
off in many instances, and until the
war ends or Germany and Austria can
open up their steamship routes, mails
to these two countries cannot be guar
anteed. So far as the mails to the 9TH
er warning nations are concerned they
are now being sent on regular sched-

Why Do Tenant Farmers
Move?

The past two months, as is usual.
ly the case In fall, has marked
the sale of much farm property in
the rural communities of the state
and the moving of farmers from
one farm to another. This fire.
quency of moving, or instability of
occupancy, very likely is one of
the chief causes for the decline of
rural prosperity, or is a hindrance
to greater progress. Frequency of
removal of farmers is one of the
greater causes why the roads and
bridges are generally in poor cor
d1tlon because the farmers, moving
at frequent periods are not particu.
larly interested in their upkeep.
Farm buildings of such farms are
not usually kept in good repair, az
the man who is about to move will
leave the repairs for the next teuant
TO make. The same reasons will
apply for lack of interest by the
unstable farmer in the schools,
churches, and general welfare oil
the community.
The U. ). census bureau is gath
ering staticlics on this unsa,isfae-
tory phase of country life, but so
far, apparently, has not made ex.
haustlve inquiry as to the reason
why these farmers move. la our
own community such an inquiry
might throw light upon CONDITIONS
that could be changed for the bet
ter. This section of the country is
noted for lite open. handed hospi-
tallty, but are we really as hospita.
BILE and as neighborly as we believe
ourselves to be? Let us be honest
with ourselves. Do we welcome
the incoming tenant and try TO
make him and his family feel that
we would like to help them and
make them permanent members of
the community? If not, let US be-
gin with the next new tenants,
starting out with the idea that we
will accept them at their own val.
uation and treat them as we would
like to be treated under like crcum.
stances. Are our ways, our habits,
our local laws and regulations the
sort that would naturally attract
and what is more important, hold
good settlers-fill them with a de-
sire to buy farm in this neighbor.
hood? Let US stand aside and look
at ourselves. Let us try TO get the
viewpoint of the stranger, and if we
are wrong, let us about-fsce. If we
are hide-bound and stsnd-offish, let
us put the Golden Rule in operation.
If our ways and habits are not
what they ought to be, let us modi-
fy them. If our local laws and
regulations are either too lax or too
puritanical, we have the remedy at
hand. Let us End out why farm
tenants move from this locality and
