SUDDEN DEATH OF MRS. LARSON

Mrs. Joseph Larsch died very sud
denly at the home OF her sister, Mrs.
Jas. r. Flood. last Saturday evening.
Mrs. Larsch was sick only few hours
when death came, the result OF a poi
soning from kidney ailment with
which she was affected.
The suddenness OF the death OF
this lady was a shock to the com
munity for only the day previous she
had come here from her home in Es-
canada. seemingly well in every way.
SO sudden was her death that her
husband was unable TO get here from
Escanaba although a telephone mes
sage was sent him Immediately upon
her being taken i'll and he left at
once via automobile for Crystal Falls.
The deceased was "a years of age
and was born in the copper country.
She was married to Joseph Larsch in
Keweenaw county in 1881. In 1892
the Larsch family moved 20 Crystal
Falls where they lived until 1898.
when they moved TO Escanaba and
have resided there since that time.
The remains were taken to Escana-
ba for burial, the funeral being held
there on Tuesday. She is survived
by five sisters and three brothers, Mrs.
Jas. X. Flood OF this city, Mrs. Chas.
Marcott OF Escanaba. Mrs. Thos. Oul-
ette OF Los Angeles and Mrs. Decker

A BIG STATE TAX

Iron county's share OF the state tax
to be collected in December is $780,
404. about the same as 1t was last
year. 1t is only a few years ago when
the state tax apportioned to Iron
county amounted to 100000, so some
idea OF the immense advance in state
expenses can be gained from the tax
assigned this county in 1920.
The tax Is apportioned among the
different townships and cities OF the
county according to the assessed val
ue. The state tax and the assessed
valuation Of the other counties of the

TAG DAY

Today Is tag day for the children
OF the Good Will Farm. II Is quite
generally known that the Good viii
Farm cares for children OF this COM
munity and Is entirely dependent for
support on the contributions OF its
friends. Recently the splendid build
ing IL had erected was destroyed by
fire and the task OF caring for the tiny
folks committed to its charge has
been made more difficult. 1t Is hoped
TO raise several hundred dollars in
Crystal Falls today. Surely this is a
cause which will appeal to every man,
woman and child, for nothing so
touches all hearts as a friendly baby.
The Farm-for bear in mind 1t is
not called an asylum--is undenomi-
national and at present is full to
overflowing. In this day OF high
prices 1t requires management to meet
expenses. SO be ready today 20 con-
tribute what you can 10 cause which
stands alone in it's heart appeal.
