Manufacturers News prints a sto-
~ that indicates that automobiles
will be made to sell as low as 500 to
$3.50 each. The gist of the story is
that the Standard Oil Company has
carburator that will burn kerosene
as efficiently as gasoline. And they
sought to have Henry Ford utilize it
in his plant. The Standard has more
kerosene than it knows what to do
with.
1t wants some of the demand for
gasoline switched over to kerosene.
But Ford laughed at the idea. How
ever the Standard is not greatly dis
MAYED by FOrd's refusal to respond
to their proposition. They can equip
factories of their own, and consump-
tion of kerosene is the object. They
will make kerosene burning motor
cars and distribute them at cost to
manufacturer and distributor.
Ford will come back at them and
threaten that he can make FOrds for
800 each. So there you are. If com
petitors such as the Standard and
Ford get into the game, 500 motor
cars may be reality. Burning Ike
rosene or gasoline would not make a
whit of difference to anyone if the
cars run alright.

w F. Raven, extension specialist
for Upper Michigan, of Marquette,
spent Monday here assisting Co. Ag-
ent j. +. Kadonsky in the compile
ton of the Iron-G ogebic Counties
Guernsey Breeders Association.
Meeting of the Guernsey Breeders
was held in the Court House in Hur-
ley, on Monday afternoon, which
was represented by some of the most
prominent cattle men from Gogebic
and Iron Counties. 1t was decided
to adopt the Community system of
breeding where the Association owns
all the pure bred sires in common.
Every two years these sires are trans
ferred from one community to the
other. This will prevent close breed
ing and enable a Community to pro-
cure the best sire which would be i'm
possible in every case under private
ownership under Gogebic County con
ditions. The next meeting of the AS
ISOLATION will be held in the City Hall,
on the evening of November %, at
which time Mr.. Raven Will also be
present. Every one interested in live
stock is urged to attend this meeting

IrOnwoOd People Duped.

1t looks as though the charitably
inclined people of lrOnwo0d had been
duped to the extent of several hun
bred dollars by woman who signed
herself IN Hutchinson, and who
solicited subscriptions in this city last
month for an alleged "Rescue Home
Association, sol Main ST., Menominee,
Mich" The woman represented that
the Rescue Home Association" was
a children's home-iinding institution.
Herman Larson, in order to verify
the woman's claims, wrote to the city
clerk of Menominee, and received
reply from +. 5. NOrcross, who wrote
as follows: "No such association in
this city, and is certainly not located
at sO1 Main street Try Menominee,
Wis" The printed receipts used by
the woman contain the name and ad-
dress as sent to Mr.. Norcross, SO il
may be set down that the institution
is myth and the woman c0nsum-
ate fraud Gogebic county people
should turn down every one Of these
solicitors for children s home associa-
lions excepting those representing
Good Will Farm, the upper PENN
sula's excellent institution at HOugh-
ton. and solicitors for the orphan
homes conducted by the various
church organizations. Many are pure
frauds, as the alleged home" in
Menominee has proven to be, and
others Of good repute have no claims
on the people Of this section. Herman
Larson has done the cause of charity
real service in exposing NJ. Hutch

The village of Hibbing, Mimi, the
richest village in the world, is a
gain in the limelight At a recent
meeting of the village council it was
voted to hold special election to
vote on the proposition of selling
81, 500, 900 in bonds to care for the
floating Indebtedness. The special ell
ection will be held on Nov. 80. 1t is
probable that officials of the mining
companies which refused to pay GER
tain taxes on account of alleged ex-
travagance on the part of the village
will fight the bond issue in the courts.

A good proportion of Hurley's male
population are in the woods hunting
deer. The fore part of the week saw
a big exodus of hunters, but accord
ing to the number of licenses at the
county clerk S office the number of
hunters this year is less by about 300
than last year. Local hunters have
made a camp in all sections OF the
county, a good proportion of them at
Moore, others'at Island Lake, Sand
rock, Pine Lake and in the resort re-
gion. Extra sleepers on northbound
passenger trains has been the rule
this week, this being necessary on ac-
count of the large number of nimrods
from the cities who annually invade
this mort hern region. Conditions since
the opening of the season Thursday
have not been any too good and many
hunters are waiting for fall OF snow
before going into the woods.

See Through Brick Wall.

The inventive genius of William
Marconi, the man who gave wireless
telegraphy to the world. has not been
idle these half dozen years. He has
perfected an apparatus by means OF
which it is possible for. "a person
standing by solid partition, such as
brick wall, to see through it and OBJ
serve what is happening, just as ifeno
object or obstacle obstructed the vision.
If an object, with the aid of this instru-
ment, is visible through block of
granite, the diaphanous clothing of the
summer time will not stand ghost OF
chance in obstructing vision. 1t now
behooves some other fertile genius to
90 Signor Marconi one better by in
venting fabric that will be imper-
vious to rays of light. If that is not
done before the Marconi apparati be
put on the market, we will all be in a
bad plight.
The Advertiser moves that Signor
Marconi be enjoined, for the present,
at least, from putting his latest de-
vice on the market.

Should Have No Fayorites.

In Asheville the other day man who
is member of prominent fam
lily was convicted Of selling whis-
key. He has been a constant violator
of the law but not until recently was
sufficient evidence secured to convict.
The presiding judge made the sentence
a term of IL months on the public
roads, and when an effort was made to
have the sentence changed to line
the judge said: Negroes and poor
white men are made to serve on the
chaingang for violating the whlskey
law and l am unwilling to make an ex-
ception in this case"
The Judge was right. Social pres
tige and position gained through the
influence that accompanies wealth
should have no weight in administering
justice. The intelligent citizen. one
who has had an opportunity for devel-
oping the best that is in him, has less
to offer III eXtenuatlon 1or Vloldl'nS
the law than has the poor wretch who
has been travelling rough and rocky
road all of his life. The intelligent,
well-to-do citizen should set worthy
example to those who are less fortu-
nate. And if the courts are to show
leniency at all it should be toward the
man who has had fewest opportuni-
ties.
The Asheville judge was right in re-
fusing to modify the sentence simply
because the convicted man happened to
be we'll connected. His record of crime
has brought shame upon his honorable
forbears and he should be made to
wear the stripes along with other vio-
lators of the law.

Provide For The Orphans.

The statement was made in the pa
pers few days ago that one of the
leading orphanages in the State is in
need of funds with which to purchase
the everyday necessities for the sever
al hundred fatherless and motherless
children in that institution. The finan-
cial depression incident to the Euro
pean war has caused the receipts of
all of the orphanages to be much less
than during former years. But in spite
of the war and the temporary depres-
sion, the people of this country are
richly blessed and they should show
their gratitude by sharing literally OF
their means with those who have no
earthly parents to supply their needs.
Every orphanage in South Carolina
should be generously supported. Our
people are abundantly able to supply
the funds for their maintenance, and
if the orphans are neglected those who
withhold their gifts will in some way
be made to suffer.
If you have not made your regular
contribution to the orphanage that is
supported by your church, do so at
once though the regular channel, or
send the donation direct with the re-
quest that your church be given credit
for the amount SO the record may be
complete and properly kept.

Make DYES Here.

Present-day American cotton manu-
facturers are complaining that they
cannot get dyes. When your grand
mothers spun and wove at home they
did not make any such complaints.
They knew dozen different roots and
herbs and barks from which they could
extract as many different colors. 1t
is pity that the manufacturers of to-
day haven't got some of the gumption
and genius of their grandmothers. =
