LIZARDS MAKE AUTOS SKID
Plague Afflicting Towns and Villages
Which Border on Prairie Lakes
of Canada

Winnipeg, Mana plague Of liz
ards is affecting the towns and VII
lagos which border on the prairie
lakes and sluices Of Canada. At Nj
nette 1000 lizards were shoveled out
of the basement window shaft at the
government sanatorium. In the doc
tors quarters 60 were counted.
Motorcar drivers have to keep skid
chains on their cars, as the roads are
made slippery by a surface of living
lizards. Many of the people keep in
doors rather than venture out be-
cause of the disagreeable sensation
of crunching a lizard underfoot. The
lizard is more treacherous than ba-
mana peel.

Crystal Falls is indebted 10 the
members OF the Ramblers Basket Ball
team for the fine playing. the excel
lent sportsmanship they displayed and
the uniformly gentlemanly behavior
they showed on every occasion. The
boys started out under great handi-
cap.No regular city basket bail team
had ever been supported here SO they
had TO pioneer in the work. This they
did well and leave the way paved for
team next winter that ought 10 DE
a hummer
Much OF the credit for having a
team must be given to Emil Kron-
quist who worked his head of last
fall to get the thing started. Emil
Is true sportsman and his influence
brought TO the team the excellent
record they showed in that line.
When they were beaten by a better
team they didn't put out any alibi---
just gave credit where credit was due.
A total OF IA games we're played. or
that number they won and lost 6.
They lost the three first games that
they played, a handicap that would
have discouraged many teams. but.
they kept plugging and at the end OF
the season they were winning con-
sistently.
The boys games were self support
ing and a small balance is left In the
treasury to help buy the sweaters
which the boys are certainly entitled
to.
We hope that the team will remain
together next year for we believe
that a much finer record will be
recorded for them with the expert
ence of the past season to guide them
in their work.
The Ramblers took the last game
OF the season for the championship
or Iron Range from the Stambaugh
All-Stars on Saturday last. The home
boys were in exceptionally good
shape for the game. The score was
