TO MAKE ADDRESS
PROGRAM BEING MADE FOR THE
MEMORIAL SERVICES FOR
OUR HEROES.

The date for the union memorial
services for departed heroes has been
set for Sunday May 25 at the Wash
ington Auditorium. All the church
es of the city will join in the SER
vices. Mrs. B. o. Strachan has very
kindly consented to get up the music
for the occasion and A. A. Earring
ton of Duluth will deliver the address.
Mr.. Harrington is recognized as one
of the best speakers in the north
west and it is fortunate that he has
consented to be here on that date.
1t was the original intention to have
the services on Memorial Day but ow-
ing to the inability of the committee
to get a. speaker for that date, it was
decided to hold them on the 25th.
The World War Veterans of Ely
are behind the memorial services and
in the afternoon will march to the
cemetery where the honors will be
given those buried there. All the
returned soldiers and sailors of the
city and surrounding country are re-
quested to join in the march and ex-
ercises at the cemetery. All men
are requested to be in uniform. The
City Band will furnish music for the
occasion.

NOT NECESSARY.

sThe housefy, when we consider
its source, its manner of life, and its
relation to our food and drink, is not
one whit less disgusting than is the
louse," says w. A. Riley, the chief of
the entomology division of the Min
nesota college of agriculture. at is
even a greater menace to health for
it has been implicated as a carrier Of
more diseases than the louise. And
yet today the louise is scarcely men,
tionable in polite society, while we
not only tolerate the houseflies in
stores and restaurants, but even in
our homes. There is very general
feeling on the part of the public that
the pests are at worst a necessary
evil.
"This viewpoint is wholly wrong.
Flies can be eliminated when the pub.
lie awakes to the necessity of con-
certed action. In the meantime, the
individual householder can greatly re-
duce their numbers by keeping his
own premises clean and ehus not only

prevent fiy-breeding but lessening the
chances Of obtaining supply of flies
from careless neighbors."
Screen your house thoroughly"
adds DIR. Riley, "and by the use of
sticky fly paper and 'swatting' get rid
of the strays which escape the line of
defense.
Inform yourself as to the life his
tory, the disease carrying possibilities
and methods of control of the house
fly. Refuse to trade with the milk
man, the baker, the grocer, the con-
fectioner who is so Indifferent about
the health of his customers that he
does not protect his goods from the
flies. Keep the subject before the
community and you will be doing
real, constructive public health work.

A dispatch from Washington says
Persons who may be planning on
making their own liquor in their own
homes after national prohibition
becomes effective July 1st, are to be
warned by revenue authorities as to
the penalties to which they will be
subject.
The internal revenue bureau has
sent to revenue collectors and agents
a summary of laws on the subject
and penalties, with the suggestion
that they be made widely known.
The schedule of penalties for va
rious violations is as follows:
For failure to register still, $500
penalty, fine of between 500 and
81 900 and Imprisonment of between
one month and two years. For ma
king liquor in community where it
is prohibited by local or state laws,
tax of $1,000.
For violating wartime prohibition
1000 fine or one year Imprisonment,
or both.
For making whiskey. mash, or
beer, fine of between $500 and $1,000
and Imprisonment of between six
months and three years.
Beer making comes with the same
prohibition.

Once there was a man
And he always said
That he'd just as soon
Buy bonnets for cows
AS space in newspapers
To tell folks
What he was selling
And this man went along
From year to year
Making little money
And grumbling because
He never made enough
To retire on
Or buy an automobile
Or pay his taxes
Or buy Liberty bonds
Or Thrift Stamps
And then one day
He went home
EAnd found his wife
With a brand new dress
And she gave him a kiss
And told him
She had paid only
Twelve dollars
For it
And the man said
"Why is that?"
And she said,
"What do vn,, rooap7V
