THE GREAT ILLUSION!

Throughout the country people are
waiting for things to return to nor
NAL. Many man needing improve
ments is waiting for return to
normal prices before building. THIS
is THE GREAT ILLUSION. Society
is in constant state of Flux. The
normal OF yesterday is no longer the
normal of today. To return to the
normal of yesterday would be to dis
card the electric light for the coal oil
lamp, or back OF that to the tallow
candle, or even TO the burning rush
stuck in a ebink in the wall. PRICES
WILL NEVER RETURN TO NOR
NAL. What we think of as normal
has ceased to be and will never be
again. We are on new level.

DR.. Edwards informs us that the
number of flu cases In Mastodon town
ship are decreasing quite rapidly now
and he expects that the zenith has
been passed and that from now on the
cases should gradually grow less and
peter out entirely in a short time.
A few new cases have been reported
this week but they are growing less
daily. On Thursday there were so
cases in the township,
DIR. Edwards says that about the
worst spot in the township is in the
Buck lake section where many OF the
farmers and their families are iii with
the disease.
So far DR.. Edwards has had splen-

Entertainment Given at Porter School
Success In Every Way.

The evenings entertainment by the
Finnish people OF the community
which had long been heralded and for
which many preparations were made
by those having the work In hand,
came of according to schedule and 1t
was pronounced a big success. A
large audience was present TO wit
ness the tablaux, folk dances and
other exhibitions OF native Finnish
costumes and to listen to the Finnish
music.
One OF the principal workers in ar
ranging the program was Mr.. Andrew
Rysberg OF the Judson mine. He was
ably and enthusiastically assisted by
many others OF his people. the entire
affair being under the management
OF the Americanization workers who
are laboring in Iron county.
The performers made a very pretty
appearance. dressed in the costumes
their native land, the women with
their hair flowing loose, a red ribbon
binding II in front, red skirts and
black and red bodices. The men wore
sashes and the trousers, caps and
blouses OF their native land.
The humorous sketch by Mr.. Rys-
berg brought a hearty laugh to many
who remembered the scenes of friv-
olity in their native land and who for
the moment were transported again
10 the communities of their childhood.
Following the program lunch was
served, the proceeds OF the entertain
ment and luncheon being slightly ov-
er $4,000. This money went TO the
library fund OF the Porter school III
brary.

PRESIDENT RACE INTERESTING

The contest for president OF the VII
iage of Alpha is arousing a great deal
of interest as DR.. ]. p. Edwards, VINO
has been SO active for the public for
the past two years, is being opposed
for the office by Peter S. Kilgren, an
old resident of this locality
Or. Edwards didn't wish TO continue
in the office as he felt that he had had
enough and preferred to let some 9TH
er person bear the burden for time
hut he was induced TO change his mind
by his friends because of the fact that
the budget which was passed last TIME
had to be spread over a term OF ~
months instead OF the II months, que
TO a change in the ending OF the hscai
year.
The old council goes out OF oilce
entirely this year. Under ordinary
conditions one half OF the council
would hold over but. due to resigna-
tions. not a single member OF the old
council remains. Some of them are
candidates for nomination and Will
probably be returned to the council
but those who have been responsible
for the financial policy OF the village
for the past year thought that DIR. Ed
wards should be candidate again as
he did the major work OF planning out
the financing OF the village.
DIR. Edwards work as president has
been uniformly successful Like all
other public Offices. one incurrs OPP
position. One OF the chief sources OF
opposition to his administration has
come from change in the admins
tratiye system whereby George Voel-
ker was appointed village manager
Mr.. voelker resigned during the week,
saving that he can do better by work
Ing at the mine and will not have to
suffer the kicks.
DIR. Edwards, In talking the matter
over with reporter for The Diamond
Drill, says that he feels his success al
the coming primary is in the hands OF
those who own property in the village
and who he has been endeavoring to
serve In such manner as TO make their
burdens as light as possible

THE THOMAS FARRELL POST AND
THE WAR CHEST


II has come TO the notice Of members
OF the Thomas Farrell Post OF Alpha
that at the Tuesday night meeting in
Crystal Falls. 70 boost a new hotel
project, a statement was made to the
effect that the Lcuis Bowman Post
had 100000 to subscribe to that
end.
Members OF the Farrell Post infer
that the speaker had in mind the $1O.-
10000 still remaining in the war chest
and II correct in this assumption de-
ny the right OF the war chest board
TO turn over to the Bowman Post this
sum in its entirety
The people of the village OF Alpha
were heavy subscribers to the war
chest fund. AS a perusal OF the rec
ords will prove and the Farrell Post
expects its just proportion OF the
100000 TO use as 1t deems it.
Ihe board OF the west side OF the
county disposed of It's chest balance
by dividing It between the two posts
on that side and similar action,in fair
ness, is expected OF the local board by
Farrell Post.
