OBJECT TO POLICEMEN'S
"FIGURES" BUT C0PPERS
IN TURN HAVE OWN SAY

PORTLAND, Ore, Sept. 2T.-(Uni-
ted Press) Now come the reformers
with the suggestion that policemen
wear corsets while patrollng their
Portland beats.
80 many of our policemen are
large and heavy set say the aesthet-
lies, "and they look coarse and gross.
We want handsome, fine appearing
young men /for policemen. They
should be forced to wear corsets so
that their bodies would have more
graceful lines"
"a fine idea" snorts Policeman o.
Halloran, "a grand thing for the un-
Idertakers. Just imagine me going to
a club meeting with me corset on.
Just watch John Keegan going down
into the wilds of the lower Albina dis
trict with his powder puff and lip
stick. Twould be murder"
No, the coppers don't take kindly
to the idea.
"Corsets cost too much money"
AYERS Captain Inskeep. II have paid
for quite a bunch of them, and /
know, because / have been married
for quite a while. A lot of these cop
pers wouldn't buy their own corsets.
They would try to steal their wife's.
That would cause too much trouble" !"
Patrolman Nelson scouts the idea.
Wouldn't it be a grand thing" he
said, me coming down to work and
putting on my uniform and asking
some bull to hook up my corset. May
or Baker would have to hire a maid

said to have originated at Dallas,

Last year. tuberculosis caused the
death of 10000 persons in the coun-
try. Strain of military service upon
men and the exertions of war work on
women are already beginning to pc
come apparent in the development OF
tuberculosis among persons in whom
the bacilli had long lain dormant, u
was said.
The loss to the United States In life
and labor during the past year. 1t was
estimated, was s500,000,000 from tu-
berculosis alone. Unless something IS
done this year it is believed, the loss
of life and labor value will be greater.
1t is estimated that not less than L.

Careful observers at Hood River
now state that the revised estimate of

which reduced the total from 10000 900
boxes to 100000 boxes, will prove
to the inaccurate, and assert that the

innate their crop at slightly above that

ANNUAL SPRING CLEANUP
CAMPAIGN FOR VILLAGE.
Street and Alley Committee Takes the

Superintendent Of Streets Robert

of typical spring weather, the village
street committee Of L'Anse will take
the initiative in the annual cleanup
camgaign to make the village beau
tiful. Residents Of the village are re-
quested to cooperate with the superin-
tendent so that the work will be well
done.
Advices from Lansing announcing
May 1917 as the time for the spring
notifications of rakes and shovels for
drive on dirt and refuse met with
the approval Of local officials. They
were in agreement with the governor
that the second week in May was the
ideal time for the campaign, as it is
reasonably certain that weather con-
ditions by that time will be favorable
throughout the state for the crusade.
The schools will also be asked by the
governor to conduct appropriate ex-
ercises on May 16 and the children will
take to their homes an appeal for CO.

dred fifty seven million five hundred
thousand dollars, out Of total for the
nation of four billion five hundred mil
lion dollars.
The rate Of interest is four and
three-quarters per cent.
The unexpected small amount of
the loan and the high rate Of interest
have brought great joy to the liberty
loan workers of the ninth federal dis
trict, who will begin their campaign
next Monday.
AS announced by the Treasury de-
partment, the Victory Liberty Loan
will take the form of Gold Notes, ma
turing in four years.
These notes will be exempt from
state and local taxes except estate and
inheritance taxes And from normal
federal incise tax the notes WI be
convertible at the option of the hold
ers through their life into three and
three quarters per cent four --'7r
notes If like M cturity -. exempt
from al federal, stase and local taxes
except estate and inheritance taxes.
The notes of both les will be dat
ed and bear interest from May 20,
1919, and will mature on May 20,1923.
If the loan is over-subscribed, as is
probable, only subscriptions of ten
thousand dollars and less will be allot-
ted in full.
The terms of this issue will be based
upon the desire to devise a security
which will not only prove attractive
to the people but the terms of which
will insure a good market for the
notes and not affect adversely the
market for the existing government
securities.
Baraga county's apportionment for
this Loan is fifteen thousand dollars,
just half of what the last call was for.
You'll remember what we did to the
last request from Uncle Sam. Watch

True in Play mickey" to be
Shown in Baraga.
The wonderful realism, thought and
minute attention given to every de-
tail in that remarkable production,
Mickey" featuring Mabel Normand,
to be shown at the Bijou Theatre in
Baraga on Friday and Saturday,April
25th and 26th, is forcefully brought
out by the advent-the "where and
how"-of Minnie Ha Ha, Mickey's
foster mother.
Strange and fascinating friendships
are made on motion picture lot, but
probably few will be unearthed more
interesting than that existing between
Mabel Normand and the Indian wom-
an Minnie. Long ago Minnie slipped
away from her Oklahoma tepee to see
a picture show-and then sat up far
into the night penning missives to her
adored. Later Minnie came to Los
Angeles and went into pictures at the
instigation of the Miller 101 ranch
people, and one day, on location"
came face to face with Miss Normand.
Long since they had exchanged pho
tographs; Mabel in her most simmer
ing summery dress, Minnie in her
brightest blanket and oldest corn cob
pipe. Recognition was instant, and
for half an hour frantic directors
stormed and stamped without avail.
Then Minnie, without letting any
one in on her secret, began a wonder
full pair of moccasins for Mabel Nor
mand. Many days and nights she
worked on them, and then one day a
dream came true. Minnie got an offer
to quit her job and join Mabel Nor
mand's company to play Mabels fos-
ter mother. Somehow she seemed al
ways to have been that-it was the
part for her. Report at nine," the
director admonished her-but Minnie
was there at six. Among other
things she brought the partly complet-
ed moccasins, and between scenes la
bored on them. When you see "Mick-
ey" you will see the moccasins, too,
for Miss Normand insisted on using
them in all the scenes where high
heels or bare feet were not impera-
tive.
