Making Excuses.

He Is only bum. He has been a

years. He began by making excuses.
And he is making excuses still for his
parasitism on society. If the world

other men, he declares, he would have
accomplished things. But the world
has never given him chance, and he

Is calling for men and women as never

Few men appreciate the harm that
comes to their careers from making
excuses. They are wont to attribute
their failure to hard luck. Luck at
times breaks against men and their
undertakings. But If those who have
failed will look back honestly into
their careers. they will see that they
themselves are to blame for their fall

The attorney general is now pre-

the men will make application for

Spot these story tellers, croak-
ers, crepe-hangers. Tell 'em to
lay off, and if they persist go
over the top then and there with
a swift jab to the jaw which is
wagging for the kaiser.
No judge has yet sentenced a
citizen who took it upon himself
to administer junker justice to a
lie hound in the German spy
army.
Washington wants every. loyal
American to start swatting lies
and spies-now. You are also
asked to talk less to people you
don't know-especially if you
know something that might help
Germany.
The only kind Of talk to hand
out promiscuously is pep talk.
To utter an unfavorable word in
public or to listen to gloom stuff
is yellow-pure unlimited saffron.
Constructive criticism? Yes!
But what good to tell it to Ger
man propaganda. Hunt up a
government official. Tell it to
headquarters. Don't be a fool.
The fact is that America is
sweeping forward with the
strides of giant toward the bat
tie line in France.
There have been mistakes. The
administration has told us about
the real ones. Nothing important
is being held out on us. With
hardly an exception, the men who
are now on the job are exemplars
of highest efficiency and truest
patriotism.
You and I, every American,
man, woman or child, must back
up America with faith, conf
dence, optimism, hope, courage
and undying loyalty.

a fight is to start running.
The kaiser is making a special
lot of iron crosses for Americans
who help him by careless talk.
Don't qualify. It's time to stop,

something that will help win in
stead of lose the war, don't talk.

Boundary Changed

The following taken from the
New York Evening Post, will be
interesting to citizens Of st. Louis
county:
"a rectifcation of the Cana
dian boundary along some forty
miles between Minnesota and On
tario, just west of Lake Superior,
has passed without much notice,
though the United States loses by
it one small town-H d i n G.
With this town go the Echo,
Crane, and Sand Point Lakes, all
small, and trifle of woodland,
all from the largest county OF
Minnesota, st. Louis. 1t amounts
to but few townships Yin all, in
a territory as yet very sparsely
settled. The ceded section,
wedge-shaped, throws good
deal more of the Vermilion River
into Canada than before, and at
it's southernmost point comes
within twenty miles OF the Me-
saba Iron Range"
The account is correct in most
respects. The only correction
that is needed is that relating to
the distance from the Mesaba
Range and the part of the Yer
million River which is now in Can
ada. The boundary line now
comes within twenty miles of the
Vermilion range, instead of the
Mesaba and a large part of the
Vermilion River is now in Canada
which was in st. Louis county be-
fore that time. This cession Of
land to Canada cuts off a fairly
sized portion Of st. Louis county.
The former boundary line was a
little indefinite. 1t was set in
1912 after the war with England
and the rights of territory have
been disputed slightly ever since
that division was made until the
final rectifcation recently made.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1918-05-03

few officials with police power, in
different sections of the state
have refused to take any action
against idle men, but more active
and loyal citizens have gone
ahead with the movement. Some
officials used the excuse that
they had received no official
communication from Major Yost
Recruiting Officer for the Min
nesota District, requesting their
cooperation. No such notice has
been sent out and will not be.
However through the press of the
state, Major Yost has appealed
for the hearty cooperation OF
every official in the state, and in
practically every instance has
secured it.
The result of the increased &C
tivity in recruiting is already
noticeable, with $50 recruits Sc
cured in the District during the
first 81 days in April. This mum
Der will be swelled to we'll over
1000 by the end of the month.
A rush of school boys under q
years of age is looked for as soon
as the schools close their present
term. " -
The enlist or Work" cam
paign is to be vigorously pushed
from now on, and before long
will make Minnesota the most
unhealthful place in the world
for the man who is not doing any
thing to help win the war, and
protect his home.
Some action along this line will
be taken in this city shortly. Re-
cruiting Officer Hildebrant reports
few here who will come under this
head but there are some. Several
mayors of range towns have issued
an ultimatum of Work, Enlist, or
Hit the Trail" and the officers are
making it point to see that the
orders are lived up to.

SUGAR FOR CANNING

Sugar for all requirements for
canning purposes will be furn.
lshed to consumers under the di.
rection of the food administration
1T was announced this week, un.
der modified certificate system,
that permits the dealer to sell SUI
gar In reasonable amounts upon
securing signed statement that
the sugar will be used for can
ming and preserving only and
that any surplus acquired that is
not used for that purpose will be
turned back at the close of the
canning season.
Certificates that will permit the
sale of sugar under this system
will be furnished to the retailers
of the state within the next 10
days and it is hoped will supply
az adequate amount Of sugar for
the hoped for extensive demand
for home canning purposes, and
at the same time hold the use of
sugar down to a point that will
prevent complete exhaustion of
the supply during the peak con-
sumption during the summer
months.
The rules governing the use Of
sugar for regular purposes are
not changed in any respect-and
limit the per capita consumption
of sugar to 3 pounds per month,
and purchases to 5 pounds in the
cities and villages and 10 pounds
in the country.

Quarter peck peas or one can.

mer in two quarts of water for one
hour. Add the peas and carrots and

potatoes. If canned peas are used,
add them ten minutes before serving.
Serve when potatoes are done.
Different Stews.
Here is the way you can change the
stews to make them different and to
suit the season:
l. The meat. This may be any kind
and more or less than pound may be
used. Use the cheap cuts, the flank,
rump, neck, or brisket. The long, slow
cooking makes them tender. Game
and poultry are good.
2. Potatoes and barley may be used
or barley alone, or rice hominy, or
macarOni.
3. Vegetables. - Carrots, turnips,
onions. peas. beans, cabbage, tomatoes
are good, canned or fresh. Use one
or more ofcthese, as you wish.
4. Parsley, celery tops, onion tops,
seasoning herbs, or chopped sweet pep
pers add to the flavor.
5. Many left,overs may be used-not
only meat and vegetables, but rice or
hominy.
How to Cook the stews.
All kinds Of stews are cooked in
Just about the same way. Here are
directions which will serve for max
ing almost any kind.
Cut the meat in small pieces and
brown with the onion in the fat cut
from the meat. Add the salt and pep
per, seasoning vegetables (onion, cell
cry tops, etc.), two quarts of water,
and the rice, or other cereal, If 1t is
to be used. Cook for an hour, then
add the vegetables except potatoes.
Cook the stew for half an hour, add
the potatoes cut in quarters, cook for
another half an hour, and serve.
The fireless cooker may well be used,
the meat and the vegetables being put
in at the same time.
Left-overs or canned vegetables need
only to be heated through. Add them
Is minutes before serving.
Dried peas or beans should be soak
ed overnight and cooked for three
hours before adding to the stew; or,
better. cook them overnight In fire.
less cooker.
Meat Pies
Another good way to use a little
meat. Have you ever used rice, corn
meal mush, or hominy for crust? ?
This is less work than a pastry crust
and saves wheat.
Four cupfuls cooked cornmeal, rice,
or hominy.
One onion, two cupfuls tomato.
eighth teaspoonful pepper.
One tablespoonful fat.
One pound raw meat or leftover
meat cut up small.
One-half teaspoOnful salt.
Melt the fat, add the sliced onion,
and If raw meat is used, add it and
stir. until the red color disappears.
Add the tomato and seasoning. If
cooked meat Is used, add it with the
tomato and seasoning, after the onion
Is Drowned, and heat through. Grease
a baking dish, put in layer of the
cereal, add the meat and gravy, and
cover With the cereal dotted with fat.
