sCH0OLCRART COUNTY ROADS.

With the completion OF the three
road jobs now under way School
craft county will have laid the foun-
dalton for a system of trunk line
none in Cloverland or the entire state.
Three jobs have been under way for
several months and two OF them lack
but little OF completion. The third
job will occupy nearly all OF next year.
The Whitedale-Blaney road now
nearly completed will traverse a long
stretch OF swampy country One-half
mile OF this road was constructed in
Doyle township. connecting with 429
feet of nine foot road previously built
through an impossible stretch In all
$4,000 feet OF road has been completed
by ID. F. Boyle, OF Crystal Falls. who
has the job, and 1900 feet remains TO
be finished. He will complete the
stonng operations In short time,
and should complete the job in less
than two months next spring. The
new road building operations which is
largely in Mueller township, will end
three and one-half miles from Blaney.
This was an unusually difficult
piece OF road. on account OF the diff
cult sub-grade, the soil being wet and
hard to drain. A large part of the
and proper drainage has been a prob
lem. The most important curve on
the road Is constructed 26 feet wide.

who is associated with Mr. Boyle and
had charge of the operations during
the summer, has returned TO his home

Superintendent John A. Doelle OF
the Houghton Public schools raised
the question as to whether or not the
teachers OF the various schools could
correct the most glazing errors in the
essays OF the students. Some of his
teachers held that the work should be

others held that serious mistakes
should be corrected.
II was decided by Secretary Rowell
OF the Bureau that the work must be
entirely that of the students and the
decision was sent TO the school heads.

TO FORM LOAN ASSN.
County Agent HoOpiRgarner Seeks TO
Take Advantage OF Farm Loan Act

Mr.. Hoopingarner has called a meet
ing OF farmers and land owners to be
held in Crystal Falls on December 4
for the purpose of forming a National
Farm Loan association. This is an
association OF farmers or land own
ers who may want to borrow money
for the purpose OF improving agricul-
tural conditions.
The Farm Loan Act was passed at
the last session of congress and pro
vides a method by which farmers and
others may borrow money at a low
rate OF interest. At a recent meeting OF
the county agricultural agents OF the
state IT was decided to go ahead in the
several counties and see what can be
done towards getting associations
started.
A national farm loan association
may be organized in any community
where 10 citizens owning land desire
to borrow an aggregate OF not less
than $4,000 The land must be unin-
numbered or the proceeds OF the loan
must be used in part, to remove any
lien. Loans may be as small as 800
or as large as 10000
They must first make application
in writing, for a charter to the FEEDER

A BEAUTIFUL SPOT.

There Is report current that an
Ashland. Wis, company has secured
q lease upon the townsite Of Fayette,
Delta county, and will start at once
to make summer resort OF this
beautiful spot.
Fayette is located across the big
Bay De Noe from Escanaba on the
Garden peninsula about FIVE miles
south OF the village of Garden. IL
has one OF the most beautiful har
bors on the great lakes and is dream
spot OF the first water.
To anyone who has sailed into the
"snail shell" harbor on late summer
afternoon, this announcement will be
OF interest for IL IS then that the
beauty OF this isolated spot is ar
rayed in all OF its splendor 1t is
quite certain that should the report
prove true, Fayette will be patron
lied extensively
The village was settled long ago
by fishermen who helped earn their
living by growing what vegetables
they needed, but made little effort to
clear up the land. The beginning of
prosperity was in 1867. when the
Jackson Iron Mining company built
furnace at the harbor.
Two reasons induced them to locate
"A. Fttr
ands OF acres OF hardwood timber in
the vicinity from which charcoal
could be made, the other was the
natural harbor where the iron ore
brought down from Marquette could
be unloaded easily from the big lake
boats. A prosperous town soon was
built up around the harbor, while
sets Of charcoal kilns were located al
various places on the peninsula. For
several years the woodsman's AK re-
sounded in every direction. and the
hum of industry made pleasant music
In the village. That was the golden
age of Fayette, and many tales are
told of the events of that period.
One of these tales has to do with
the naming OF the high cliff that
forms one side OF the harbor One
night young woman fell over the
cliff Her half submerged body was
found the next day. Some say she
fell while walking in her sleep; 9TH
ers. that she had stolen something
from a neighbor and committed sui
eide because OF her parents repri-
mand The story generally credited,
however, is as follows;
Her lover had been drowned by the
capsizing OF his boat. After his death
she often told of seeing in her dreams
the lights Of his boat and of hearing
his voice calling for help II is sup
posed she arose in such a trance and
walked unconsciously over the cliff
while going to his aid Since then the
cliff has been called the Maiden's
Leap.
