Had Quite a Trip

Nels M. Oscar and w. A..
Robinson made a business trip
| to Duluth Saturday afternoon,
returning Sunday evening. hav-
ling made the trip both ways by
automobile. This is perhaps
the latest that an auto trip has
been made between the two
places, the return trip having
been made on the shortest day
of the year.
The boys report the roads to
Duluth as being in fairly good
shape, Notwithstanding the fact
that there has been a thaw for
three or four days, but the re-.
turn trip was the reverse.
They left Dulu h at about
eleven o'clock Sunday morning.
At Duluth there was not enough
snow to cover the ground but
after leaving Superior snow was
encountered and the farther east
the deeper was the snow. They
broke the road between Su-
perior and Washburn in about
seven inches of snow but this did
not prove bad going, but they
say the trip across the plains
between Iron River and Wash
burn was fierce proposition.
|On the plains the snow was
from eight inches to a foot deep
with the roads drifted in some
places as deep as two feet. For
nearly twelve miles their car
plowed snow and in some places
it was so deep that it piled up IN
front of the car as high as the
top of the radiator.
The snow was wet and froze
up around the steering gear and
wheels so that stearing was
made difficult and at one place,
while going around a sharp
turn. the car went over the side
of the bank but was stopped be-
fore it toppled over.
From time to time the boys
had to stop their car and clear

Injunction Holds up Turning Over
of Roll
Actions Brought in Courts Prevent Tax
Roll From Getting Into Hands
of Treasurer.

No matter how badly the
money may be burning your
pocket there likely will not be
any chance to pay your taxes
for the year 1918 until after the
first of the year. This is the in
formation that is being given
out at the office of City Treasur-
er Jerusha Johnson to persons
who are inquiring about their
taxes and who seek to pay them
before the close Of the year.
AS yet the tax roll for the city
has not been turned over to the
city treasurer although the roll
is now ready so far as the clerk
is concerned. The delay in
turning over the roll was brought
about by an injunction ordered
by the court which is not to be
heard until the 30th day of Dec
ember. This injunction pre-
vents the turning over of the
roll until the parties have been
heard.
The injunction was secured by
attorneys in an endeavor to get
judgment unto this years tax
roll. The judgment is held by
the Washburn Water Works
Company against the city.
So keep your money in your
bank or your pockets until the
city treasurer calls. Taxes are
like death they cannot be es-
caped-so hang unto your money
until the city treasurer calls.

The modified influenza ban
went into effect on Saturday Of
last week and churches, theatres

over two months were not per-
mitted to allow children under
eighteen years of age to attend
services and picture shows which

ted to allow children to attend.
The schools of the city will
open again on December 30th
and all children will be examined
as to their health by Visiting
Nurse, Mrs. Bertha Olson. Any
child found i'll will be returned
home again and will not be per-
mitted to attend school again
li- he has received a Doctors
certificate stating that his health
is O. K.
The influenza situation con-
tinues to improve and the num-
Der of active cases is rapidly di-
minishing. There are still a
