Announcement has been made by
the war department that stores for
the distribution OF the supplies that
are on hand will be opened and main
tanned. 1t is intimated that the
stores will be continued and pur-
chases OF living necessities made on
big scale and then distributed b.
the government at cost. This, how
ever, is doubted. 1t Is quite certain
that the big lot of clothing. food and
other supplies that the government
owns will be disposed of directly to
the people either by stores or parcels
post.
In this connection it might be men
toned that the people of Crystal Falls
have not taken advantage OF the op-
portunlty to get a part OF the army
stores which Postmaster Kelly ha'
had allotted to Crystal Falls. A mum.
ber of orders have been left with tn,
postmaster. but there is quite a bit oi
the supplies left.
Mr. Kelly will have TO send in his
final order Monday so II any OF oui
readers wants some OF this feed ant
have not already given their orders
they had better do so at once.

murder at Iron River. The editorial

The same lire as the information Civ

infer from reading It that the men
got drunk AT Saunders.
As will be seen by our news col

was no necessity for linking the saun-
alers saloon with the affair, or II It
was linked 1t should have been ex-
planned that the liquor which made
the men drunk was gotten at Iron Riy-

We hold no brief for the Saunders
saloon. Te are making this explana-

tuition which. we are told, has been
very scrupulous in the matter OF
living up to the law Whether this
IA the case or not we are not con-

however in giving accurate reports.
The only reason we can see for
connecting the said saloon with this
case is to conveniently pass the buck

Some New Buildings.
Standing at Mr.. Puotinens barn we
could see several fine new buildings
In course OF construction. One was
large barn on the farm OF Alex
Silvia. II will cost in the neighbor-
hood of $4,000 II It costs a cent when
completed. That barn must be at
least duplicated upon every farm
about there and there are IL farms
on the Crystal Falls side OF the road
and some twenty more on the Hema-
tite side.
Anoth& building noted was big
temperance hall at the corners. That
hall Is more than temperance hall
II Is to be community center. Farm
ers and farmers children must have
their amusements Just as the city peo-
pie have. That's the way you're 60
ing to keep them on the farm. Less
drudgery and more of the pleasurey
OF life for the farmer is the way Ia
solve the lessening volume OF pro-
duction. The farmer must have the
movies dances, social opportunities.
He's been starved socially long enough
and tDat temperance hall" is Just a
oierdnner OF what is going TO spring
Up on evsry four corners OF the land.
The usefulness OF the movie" OF the
orchestra and the dance is just in its
infancy. Rural life must have it's

Jess Willard isn't the worlds hcavv-

having been taken from him yesterday
at Toledo by Jack Dempsey. However.
he works Just as we'll in the big film

which closes weeks engagement at the

the fight. Jess proves n better actor
Shan fighter II seems and his work in the
screen production is on par with many
OF the favorite film actors of the world
1.-The Challenge Of Chance" is a big out
door story, told in a big way and pro-
duced 70 most pronounced manner
There Is a pleasing love story inter-
mingled with excellent riding by jess
and his cowboys. several rough and
tumble fights in which Willard scores n
few knock-outs WITH seemingly apparent
ease and ratheK sensational racing
scene. The biggest scene in tho picture.
however, is tn rescue of the racing
horses from the JSar"Z race tracks by
Jess and his COW phnchcrs. 1t is real
thriller and adds plenty OF excitement to
the production. Jess and The Challenge
Of Chance" will bf on view today at
! :SO-3:15, 7:3O anF 9:l5. It's worth
seeing even if he dill lose tho big fight.
