A PROCLAMATION.
Friday. May 3, VIII BE Observed As
Arb0r Day In State.

The observance OF Arbor Day dates
back more than half century. and
from the beginning it has had a civic
motive and a patriotic association.
This year. more than ever before. we
nave reason to give the day a patrio-
tic setting. The great world war Is
over. Our soldiers and sailors and
marines most nobly bore their part
IL the struggle. Many OF them made
the supreme sacrifice. Costly monu-
ments will arise TO commemorate their
deeds, but meanwhile we can perpetu-
ace their memories in familiar places
Ii has been happily suggested that we
should adorn our yards, our waysides
and our parks with young trees. each
named for some one of Michigan g
fallen sons.
Ii has been further suggested that
in every city and village and town
ship Victory Elm should be planted
to commemorate the great triumph OF
Freedom and Democracy.
II IS fitting too, that l should at this
time call attention to the fact that
Act number Fifty-nine OF the Public
Acts OF 1919 makes 1t unlawful for
any one to keep upon his premises
mahonia bushes. or any other variety
OF barberry bush which harbors and
spreads the black rust OF wheat and
other grains. !, therefore. recon-
memo that these noxious shrubs be
dug up and destroyed and their places
given to harmless ornamental shrubs.
Therefore, l. Albert e. Sleeper, gov
ernor OF the State OF Michigan, do
hereby designate and set aside Fri
day, May 2. 1919. as Arbor Day, and
] request that trees be planted, as in
dicated above, in memory OF our heroic
dead.
! particularly request too that In
all Michigan schools appropriate Ar
Dor Day exercises be held, following |
80 far as may be practicable. the |
program outlined by Mrs.

INCORPORATION BILL DEAD.

Tie bills introduced into the state
legislature 10 incorporate Iron River
into city have been withdrawn and
abandoned. The reason for the with
drawal was the faulty drafting OF the
proposed statute.
The matter was handled by COM
mittee from Iron River. a bill, or
rather two bills, were drafted and
Mr.. oBrien introduced them in the
house and succeeded in having them
passed through the committee and up
to the third reading. The bills were
printed and drafts of them sent out
to other cities and persons interested
Soon Mr.. o'Brien commenced 10 get
letters from all over the state COM
planning that his bills interfered with
the home rule act and school and
city acts in general.
Mr.. O'Brien at once took steps to
learn il the complaints were valid.
He consulted the attorney general
who told him that the proposed legis-
lation was adverse to the general
policy, and Mr. O'Brien asked to have
the bills sent back to the committee
where they might be cured.
lie wired the committee at once and
urged them to take steps at once to
rectify the errors. They neglected
TO do so at once and the time limit
for new bills passed without any ac-
ing taken. Mr.. OBrien was quite
chagrined because Of the unfortunate
turn that affairs took, but he did his
part of the work and feels that he
should not be held for the errors OF
others.
The people of Crystal Falls were
not interested in the legislation as il |
was almost entirely local TO Iron |

COUNTY SHOULD TAKE STEP TO
EMPLOY THE IDLE LABOR
BUILD ALL ROADS AT ONCE
Attend Meeting May ! if You Want
to Help Set the Ball Rolling
Along That Way

The suspension OF work at the
several mines in the county ought to
spur the people of the county to at
once take steps TO provide work for
the men thus made idle, Jobs cannot
be found in other places. Other plac-
es are nearly as badly off as we are.
II their mines are not closing they
are not expanding. They cannot alb
sorb the labor from outside without
making idle some OF their own.
1t has come to a point where each
county must do something to take
care OF its own. There is an oppor-
tunity for Iron county to do just this
thing by building two pieces of road
left open in order to connect up our
trunk lines.
The two pieces we have in mind are
first, the connection from Iron River
south TO Forest and villas counties and
next, the one from Amasa north to
the Baraga county line.
Labor the Chief Item.
Labor is the chief item in the
building OF these two pieces. The
work Is clearing, grading and grub
bing This means labor. Ii means
that all the money paid out will go to
.,.l, II hn
ey to support their families. not TO
firms who sell supplies.
The mileage called for by these
jobs is over 80 and 1t will take all
summer TO do the work. BY letting
the jobs in contracts that the men
can handle many gangs will be pro-
vided with a means OF earning liv-
ing and at the same time the county |
will get the benefit

The campaign is now on in full

certain to absorb its allotment.

KEEP YOUR AUTO
WELL LUBR|CATEO
LIFE OF CAR DEPENDS ON KEEP
ING ALL PARTS WE'LL
OILED

The life of your engine and car
depends upon iubrication," says Bur-
ton TroXell of the Capital Transit &
Repair Co., local dealers in Chevrolet
passenger cars and trucks. The
principle of fabrication is to prevent
any two pieces of metal that are
working one against the other, from
touching. This is accomplished by
having film of oil between these two
metals. Upon this film of oil depends
the life of all your bearings, cylin-
ders, pistons and rings. Only three
different grades of lubricants are
used. The owner should provide
himself with supply of gas cylinder
oil. grease and steam engine oil.
Never use steam engine oil or
anything but pure mineral oil in
the engine. Fast running or touring
over heavy and hilly roads uses up
oil much faster than city driving.
Put in an extra pint of oil every hun
dred miles or so. This precaution
will avoid trouble with bearings or
cylinders.
Once a month, or every 1000
miles, the oil in the crank case
should be drained off and a
fresh supply poured in. The oil
may be drained by removing the
drain plug on the bottom of oil pan.
After draining, flush the crank case
with kerosene through the breather
pipe. replace drain plug and refill
with clean oil. Be absolutely sure
that all kerosene is drained off, 9TH
erwise it will mix with the fresh oil
and will cut down its lubricating
qualities.
Don't wait until you hear a
squeak before oiling. A squeak
means rusted or dry bearing, and
when once in that condition trouble
soon follows.
The compact construction of some
cars makes necessary the placing of
oil holes and grease cups under the
floor boards of the car. Don't be-
cause It might cause you little
trouble, neglect to remove them and
lubricate as directed"

Irish Topography

In loCCor from the place OF MS
birth, says the Irish World, Tub
bernavine, in Mayo, Archbishop
McHale once wrote: To him who
wishes to explore the ancient his
tory of Ireland, its topography is
singularly instructive. Many of
its valuable records have been
doomed to destruction, but there is
. great deal of important informa-
ton written on its soil. ;"
In Ireland more than any other
country, perhaps, the names of
places are expressive of natural
qualities or historical recollections.
Archbishop McHale, who was an
Irish scholar, instances such names
rs those commencing with Gill
lchurch), lios, rath and dun (forts);
I.tir Country, baille town, leath
thalf), trian (third), ceathradh
(fourth), cuigadh (fifth of such a
district).
It is from cuigadh, or a fifth
portion, the Irish provinces are
called. The ancient monarchy of
Meath was the fifth province.
Other names treated in the let
ter are those beginning with rus or
ros, signifying a peninsula or
promontory, or an inland spot sur
rounded by moor or water; with
magh, or moy, plains, cluan, a Sc
questered place; with sliabh. chnoc,
tullagh, highlands, from the noun
tain to the sloping knoll; with CLEAN,
lag, lowlands and valleys; with
',1soch llake), tobar (welll, abhain
(river), etc.
Etymologists and antiquarians
are not all of one mind about the
derivation of the name of the great
Archbishop's birthplace-Tubber
navine Gin Irish, Tobarnavian).
''Some," he says, ''have derived
its name from the excellent quality
of its waters, not inferior to the
juice of the grape, whilst others,
with more strict regard to the just
rules of etymology, as we'll as the
truth of history, have traced it to
the old legends of the Fenian
heroes. 'Tobar an fhioin' would
be it's correct name. according to
the first derivation, whereas To
bar ma b-6an' is its exact and
grammatical appellation as connect
ed with the historical and poetical
legends of the followers of the
great leader of the ancient Irish
chlvalry."
This most interesting and instruc-
tive letter concludes with a descrip-
tive and historical sketch of the
country stretching away from the
base of Nephin to the OK Noun
tains, which are called the ''Barna-
ma -gaoith" Mountains.
