FOREST FIRES ST.
Have Died Down cons;d eraB
Last Week. Some Damage Done
on Maple HiIl. ..s s-7..ss-s.s ,.szs...

The forest fires which reached its.
climax last Wednesday afternoon
have died down considerable during.
the past few days. Some damage
was done to buildin gs on Maple Hill
last Wednesday evening and but for
a. large force of men working to
keep it back, considerable more dam
age would have been done.
Last Monday night Forest Ranger
Bayle and Forester Taylor consoli-
dated their forces to put out a. fire
north of the Good Harbor Hill set
tlenent with good success. Yester-
day fire on the west end of Devils
track lake gained considerable head
way, being famed by strong north
east wind. Today the wind is from
the north and is taking the fire a.
way from the heavy timber and into
the old burnings, if the wind will
continue from this direction for
'ome time it is hoped that it will
burn out without doing much dam
age. So far but very little mer-
chantable timber has been burned.

USE GARDEN HOE
TO FIGHT The FOE
Cultivate your garden often and

Cultivate your garden often and
thoroughly. -
Cultivation means the keeping of
the surface soil, the upper two in
ches, loose.
Cultivate more in dry weather
than in wet.
Cultivation makes dust blanket
and prevents the loss of soil mois-
ture by evaporation.
To know the tricks of the enemy
is half the battle. Know the insects
and diseases which attack your vege-
tables and you will know how to
fight them.
Sod when thoroughly broken up
makes the soil richer The job is to
get it broken UP and worked into
the soil.
The easiest time to kill weeds is
just as they begin to start. There
fore, start the garden hoe and the
cultivator early.
Skill is shown and good results
obtained when the gardener does
each job at the right time and in
the right way.-R. S. Macintosh,
University Farm, St. Paul.

COMMUNICATION.

To the Editor of the Cook County
Herald, Grand Marais, MINI.
If you will kindly allow me, hum
ble servant Of all. mankind, to sug-
gest to the people of Grand Marais
few things l, as a tourist see in
your little village
The "Great One" surely found a.
beautiful spot for a village when he
chose the shore of Lake Superior,
but dear people, did you ever realize
how badly you have misused the lake
shore with your dirty barns and out
houses, unsightly manure piles and
flies and foul smells coming from a
place that ought to give forth sweet
smelling health giving odors just as
it did when your younger brother,
the American Indian reigned. He
didn't desecrate the beautiful home
God had given him. Why should
you? You would do we'll to pattern
after him in many ways for he had
many virtues, and we have many
more advantages than those poor
souls had.
Why don't you dear people of
Grand Marais get together and form
a "Civic Club for your towns well
fare. Plant flowers even if the sea-
son is short. Get your school child
rem interested and make a cleaner
ard better Grand Marais.
Get a dumping ground and see to
it that everyone in the village has a
garbage can. Don't wait for some
one to start something. Maybe YOU
are just the one to do it and as
Goethe puts it
"What you can do or think begin it,
Boldness has genius, power and
magic in it;
Only engage and then the mind
grows heated,
Begin and then the work will be
completed"

CAN'T GET BY CRANMER.

Our Protestant Catholic friends
are reading history to suit themselves.
The Anglican Bishop of California re-
Gently wrote in the Living Church:
1T is we'll to recall some of those
periods in which womanhood has I'M
der God given a shaping to whole
eras of progress for the Catholic
Church. To cite few from our own
line of Catholic continuity, we remem-
Der that it was the Queen Clotilda, to
whose stand for Christian faith Clovis
and the Franks good deal owed their
conversion to Christ; in like manner
it was to Berthas steadfastness in the
faith that Ethelbert and the South
SaXOns were brought to Christianity;
it was to Ethelburga that Edwin and
the North Saxons owed their first
turning to the Gospel; and two of the
longest and most epochal modern
reigns have been given the distinguish
ing names Of Elizabeth and Victorian
eras. 1t would be an interesting and
not difficult study to show how in all
of those periods the Woman's way was
definitely characteristic and different
from the mans way
1t would certainly be much more diff
fcult to show the Catholic contin-
uity'' between the heroic Catholic
queens Clotilda, Bertha and Ethelbur-
ga, and the Protestant Elizabeth and
Victoria. In this connection it is in
teresting to recall a note that Queen
Victoria made in her dairy in the early
days of her reign. Recording a con-
Versation with Lord Melbourne she
wrote:
>>Talked of Hallam's not having a
good opinion of Cranmer saying what
he had done when he became Arch
bishop. . . Lord M-said he was
very shuffling,' and that he heard
somebody was going to publish a life
of Cranmer, tending to lower him very
much in the eyes of the world-upon
which the Archbishop of Canterbury
wrote to say he had better not do it,
not rake all that up for that, after
all he is our first Protestant Arch
bishop"
Cranmer gets in the way badly when
our Protestant friends try to read their
title clear to the name Catholic.

WHERE THE WOMAN. is TO
BLAME.

I'VE believe that ninety per cent of
the mixed marriages that are now
taking place could be avoided if the
girl in the case is a Catholic" re-
marks a priest in the Brooklyn "Tab-
let" "All she would have to do
would be, in the early stages of her

we go any further, let it be under
stood shall not marry non-Cath-
Ollie. If you consider the claims of the
Catholic Church l believe that you
will become member, I will help
you to understand it, will provide you
with good books and will introduce
you to priest for instruction.
Judging by the lamentable lack of any
real religion amongst the majority of
young Protestant men, very few
would refuse to study the Faith and
embrace it if they considered that the
girl was serious. The trouble is with
the girl. Unfortunately she lacks
backbone and is so anxious to get
married that she loses this, her best
opportunity, and fails to impress the
snon-C Catholic with the bigness of the
Church in her life After marriage it
is ordinarily too late to try to win a
hearing for the Church. Being madly
in love with a Catholic girl is a posi-
tive thing; being nominally a member
of some non-Catholic sect is a mega
tive thing, and the negative is gener.
ally willing to sacrifice itself to the
positive. Love finds the way"

showing regard for herself and rever-

We are living in the midst of a
civilization which in it's amusements.
its social events, it's literature, it's
daily press, it's theatres and it's
licentious moving pictures cast upon
the screen and flashed inward upon
the susceptible Imagination of young
and old, has frankly returned to the
morality of pagan times. Catholics
have not escaped the faint, and Cath
olic women have not seldom lost that
delicacy of Christian perception which
should distinguish them.
Even at the very altar rail, while
the priest holds in his consecrated
fingers the Sacred Body of the All
Pure and Holy, he is painfully
shocked to see the sense Of womanly
modesty violated without reflection or
a thought of reniorse. Such, thank
God! is not the rule; but it is too
frequently the sad exception.
The choice lies open for Catholic
woman. 1t is between Eve and Mary:
to be temptress of evil or blessing
of God wherever she goes. She can
not follow the ways of the world and
the path of Christ. They lead in op-
posite directions.
What, then, is she to do? Is she
sincere in her desire to know God's
will? Then let her kneel at the feet
of Mary and there see if her appear

the Queen Immaculate. From the
decent drapery about her neck, more
precious than any chain of gold can
be, even to her garments hem, let
her breathe purity and the sweetness
of the grace of God in all her comings
and her goings.
Whatever may be woman's outward
grace, her greatest beauty must be
within, in the splendor of her souls
perfection before God, "as the tents
of Cedar, as the curtains of Solomon.
| This is woman's greatest charm in the
sight of men as well as of the holy
angels. So will chivalry return tc
