DR.. Saillens voiced the same senti.

throughout the United States and
which will close in May with a great
financial drive for si2O.000,O00 with

Elaborate plans for this work on a

Nor has he been able TO give his
time exclusively to knitting during
these months, for his official duties

During the first eleven months OF last

Ii Is but natural, with the great
war so fresh on our minds, that we
have eyes and ears and words OF
praise, especially for the heroes OF
the front, those who have accomplish
ed the impossible or performed the
spectacular. though their missions
took them into the very jaws of
death or even compelled the supreme
sacrifice. This Is as Il should be, and
the passing OF the years should but
add lustre to their fame and increase
the admiration OF all good citizens for
those champions of liberty and JUS
tice who stood ready to give or did
give their all for the great world
powers.
But while we do or at least should
vie with each other in honoring these
lustrous men, let us not forget that
far behind the lines and far removed
from the exciting stimuli OF battle
other heroes also performed deeds OF
merit that contributed in no small
way to the splendid victory.
Crystal Falls has one OF these men.
He is known as the Knitting Judge.
and we claim for him the champion
ship OF the men knitters OF America.
w. X Dawson, better known as
Judge" or BILLY" was past sixty
years OF age when war was declared
but no man OF twenty was more anx-
ious to do his bit than he was. In
the fall OF 1917 the Red Cross called
upon the knitters of America to pro-
vide sweaters, socks and other artic-
les OF clothing for the men in SER
vice. One day Red Cross worker
stepped into his office and asked If
he could knit
IL never did any knitting" said
he. "But l am not too old to learn"
That night he carried home a set
OF knitting needles and quantity of
yarn. From that day until after the
armstice was signed every hour that
could be spared from his duties as
Justice OF the Peace and as Coroner
OF Iron county was devoted faithful
ly TO this work In eleven months he
knit and delivered to the local Red
Cross branch thiIty-seven sweaters,

Or. Benson Explains Move.

Or. Benson Explains Move.
This was the brief explanation that
DR.. John G.. Benson, pastor OF the
Wesley Methodist church, Detroit;
assistant 10 Bishop Henderson and
executive secretary of the Detroit
Area in active charge OF the Centen-
ary campaign-he has a few more
titles but space will not permit me 20
name them-gave me OF the aims.
ideals and plans OF this great protest
ant drive.
/ had heard this Centenary discuss
ed on all sides and went to DR.. Ben
son for a clear, concise definition OF
fits plans. While this movement is a
religious and Christian movement, IL
gives one n new conception OF those
terms. DR. Benson is what is known
as progressive preacher He De.
lieves in practical religion and he is
working day and night to put across
the Centenary for he believes in It's
teachings; world democracy, eternal
peace and Christian fellowship.
"The church has awakened" he said.
at is not teaching any new principles.
Christianity means helping the halt
and the blind and working among the
poor. That Is what Christ did and
that Is what the awakened church IL
doing. We have quit preparing peo.
pie for after life and are trying to
asst them in living seven days each
week on this earth.
As sat in his Office at 4lS Sixth
street, Detroit, II seemed veritabls
beehive. This man, who is responsible
for the collection of nearly $2,O00.000
in Michigan, was answering the phone
every minute. People we're in and OUT
OF his Office but sharply at 1880
o'clock, this Saturday morning, the
hustle and hustle and clatter OF the
typewriiers suddenly ceased.
Halts Work For Prayer.
I'VE have a few minutes OF prayer
and song and get together az this
time, he explained. You see some
people think that our real object in
this campaign is to get the $4,000.
600 We have asked for. That is a part
OF it, but a small part We are trying
20 spread the teachings of Christ and
n we can show the men OF Michigan
what good the church can do towards
bringing about an ideal world we 10
not need TO worry about the money.
"To do this Will take as much pray.
er as work and so that Is why we ara
meeting at this time. The campaign
OF intercession Is a vital part OF this
drive and ! believe that II II goes over
Il will be due more 10 prayer than
any other one agency"
And so business stopped. A great
business Office was losing the time OF
a large number OF employees for half
hour. But as watched this little
prayer meeting. and saw the light in
the faces of the entire gathering,
wondered whether II might not be
good for O few other business houses
and did not feel much do,ibt about
tho success Of the Centenary IN Mlchi.

AZ one place he saw a 2S per cent

twelve months
Some Of the ores so treated are of
especial value and a bonus is paid
upon the iron produced from them
They are used mainly for export
Lake Men Are Curious.
Mr. Nicely learned that the plants
are being visited regularly by Lake
mining men who want to keep posted
upon what is being done in the line
with view to putting into practice
at Superior mines any portion of the
process that Is found to be valuable
The magnetic ores of the Lake reg
ion are comparatively small in num-
bers. About the only Michigan ores
OF this grade are to be found in the
Republic and Champion districts.
Thomas Edison experimental in
magnetic concentrating at the old
Spur mine near Michigamme many
years ago. The Republic fold shoots
down into Iron county, but there has
been nothing of value found at any
OF the explorations along this stretch
so far.
On the western Gogebic there is
much ore that can and undoubtedly
will be electrically treated in the
near future The numerous water
powers OF the Michigan and Wiscon-
sin section make this process advan-
tageous in this section.
However, IL is the possibilities that
are held out for the perfecting of this
concentrating process so that it may
be applied To non-magnetic ores that
holds out the greatest inducement to
Lake ore men. Once that extension
is assured the door is opened up to
millions OF tons OF ore that is now
worthless in the hills OF Iron and ad-
Joining counties.
