CYRIL vARNEY EXPOSED ORE LEDGE
AT HOME IN MAPLE GROVE
INSPECTED BY lERCH BROS.
Expected That Exploration of Tract
Will Follow in the Near
Future

Crystal Falls is liable TO have its
fine residence section in Maple Grove
disturbed by mining operations IL the
indications at Cyril Varneys home on
Ridge Street leads explorers 10 the
ore that is evidenced I'm the outcrop
exposed there.
Mr.. Varney started to dig base
ment under his home and when down
about three feet he met the ledge
which was red and looked like iron
ore. The more he dug the larger the
ore exposure became until he finally
decided 10 take a couple OF samples
and have them analysed. He brought
two samples to the Lerch Bros. place
They were taken right unier the sur
face Gaping and contained much for
eign substance as we'll as the native
rock. One sample showed 10 per cen
iron and the other "a per cent. Mr..
Varney is now busy uncovering the
entire basement when he will take
some more clean samples and have
them run through.
Inspected by Lerch Bros.
Mr.. Lerch came down from the Mes
abb range and went TO the cellar TO In
spect the find" He was well pleas
ed with the showing and advised Mr..
varney not 70 put in any concrete
floor which would indicate that he
had in mind something OF an explora-
tory nature.
Mr.. Lerch said that so far as he
could Judge the exposure is right at
the top OF the iron containing rock
and while that under the house may
not be the real ore, the real stuff Is
not far distant.
Mr.. Varney intends, as soon as he
has completed digging his basement
to run down hole some ten or twelve
feet and take a sample from the stuff
az that depth.
Important In Connecting Up
The finding OF this ore formation
sets az rest a much mooted question
as to the direction which the ore for
nation nj the Odgers takes. Geolo-
gists have maintained that the forma-
tion folds back upon itself and con
meets up with the Genesee and the
Kimball.
others, including the late w. j.
Richards, have maintained that time
would show that the formation con
tinues to the north east and this Il
cuts across the NV u of Sec 20. pos
sihiy making connection with who'
has been kown as the south formation
along the Great Western-Bristol run.
This remains 70 be shown up and the
discovery OF a formation in Maple
Grove will do much to show which
theory Is the correct one.

LEGION TO HAVE PARTY
VIII Celebrate ArmstIce Day With a
Hard Time Party at City Hall

The American Legion, at its meeting
last Tuesday night decided to give an
old time Hard Times" party at the
city hall on Armstice Day. November
IL. The question OF an all day cele-
bration was discussed and the boys
decided that the times are such that
the people ought not be burdened
with the expense of a big celebration
at this time.
For that reason there will be no gem
eral celebration. but the boys will
make merry in the evening at the Hard
Times Party that they have planned
and they will try to make IL a merry
evening for all others at the same
time.
Further information will be forth
coming on this subject as the time

Foot Ball Artists From the Wisconsin
Side Of the Brule No Match
For the Wolverines

The Crystal Falls-Florence game
Sunday was fairly well attended and
furnished all the thrills the fans
could ask for.
In dining up for the game. Captain
Nettle won the toss up and chose the
west goal. The visitors asked for
the kick-off.
Florence Quarter made a good kick
to Crystals 20 yard line. Carlson re-
ceived and carried to the 45 yard line.
Crystal Falls passed TO Treyarthen
with 20 yard gain. With line drives
and short end runs Crystal Falls car
ried the ball to the Florence yard
line. where they lost the ball. Florence
tried TO carry the ball through but
found the line impenetrable for three
downs when they punted TO their 40
yard line. Aeschliman made good
catch and returned the ball within 20
yards OF the Florence goal. Crystal
Falls came back with their line plum
ges and short end runs and Luck car
ried the ball over for their first touch
down. Through a little misunder-
standing Crystal Falls was not al
lowed to try for goal.
Crystal Falls kicked off and the ball
went out OF bounds. Second trial
Luck kicked TO Florence 20 yard line.
Florence made a good catch and re-
turned the ball to their 80 yard line.
Florence made some good gains with
their line smashes and when the first
quarter was up they had carried the
BAH to c. +. 30 yard line, At the be-
ginning OF the second quarter c. f.
made consistent gains and when 25
yds from goal Luck made a perfect
drop-kick and added three more to the
score for Crystal Falls.
Crystals kick-off was caught by +.
Robechaud and he was tackled. with.
out gaining ground. Crystal recov-
cred the ball after stopping Florence
for four downs and in minutes Chet
Nettle carried the ball around the end
for Crystals second touchdown.
The second half opened with some
brilliant work on the part of the yisi'
tors dnd II looked for a few minutes
as though they might score. Florence
kicked TO Norman Larson, broke down
Crystals interference and held the
ball on our 25 yard line. Crystal was
unable TO make their gains and lost
the ball on their as yard iine-then IL
was that Florence opened UP with
some line drives that we're hard TO
stop. Larson drove through Crys-
tails line, gaining ground consistently;
the back field worked beyond their
strength and when the third quarter
started Crystal carried the ball a
round the end or through the line for
several good gains. Carlson and
Zaupa each made Is yards around the
right end and zaupa intersected one
OF Florence's passes and carried II 35
yards for a touchdown around the left
end
There was but little time called for
injuries. VanMarter turned his ankle
in the first quarter but Trevarthen,
with the help of Shemke and Wetelon-
us. with their efficient work as guard.
held down the center very successfully

Work About Completed
The city has done lot OF street and

work has been done has been well
done The city is now pretty we'll ma
cadamed throughout its entire length.
Another year like the year Just past
and Crystal Falls ought to be we'll fix
cd on streets.
The paving OF Fifth street which IL
now under way by the state and coun-
ty, with the city paying It's proportion
ate share OF the cost will put that
very important thorofare In prime
condition and add much TO the beauty
OF the city. IL is 10 be hoped that next
year the tar macadam will be con-
tinued west to the city line az least on
Crystal Avenue.
Funds Running Low
The city's funds are low Just now. In
fact Il Is a wonder that there are any
funds left when the work done Is
sized up. However. tax time is near
tat hand and with the release OF the
burden OF street and sewer improves
ments, the demand will slacken very
much so that the city officials hope To
get through the winter without any
embarrassment from that source.
The water and light receipts are
sufficient 10 carry on the ordinary ex-
penses OF the city for short time.
IL must be remembered that In addi>
tion 10 taking care of the street and
sewer work the bonds that have come
due have been taken up regularly
Next year there are several bonds due
that will eat quite hole into the fund.
Taken as whole the city's affairs
have been exceilently managed.

Roads Furnish Power

A visit TO the shovel at work at the
Odgers last Wednesday found much
change in conditions from what they
we're last year and the year previous.
The principal difference Is that the
railroad company now furnishes the
spot engine. During the time the
government had the railroads a rule
was put out compelling mining com
panies to furnish their own spottine
power and many OF the companies Sc
sured their own engines, rather than
rent the engines from the railroad az
the very high rate OF rental demand
ed. Mining companies were also com
pelled to take care of their own tracks.
All of this Is changed. The railroad
company furnishes the power and has
its crew care for the tracks that serve
the shovel, the mining company taking
care only OF the shovel's own track as
they always did.

SH0vElS ARE BEING WORKED AT
MANY MINES IN COUNTY
oDcERs LOADING RAPIDLY
Movement in Other Places Increas-
ed Owing to Determination to
Stop Boats Early This Year

More ore is going forward from Iron
county this week than has been sent
forward in any one week during the
year. The reason for this is the de-
cision to stop furnishing cars by rail-
roads Just as soon as the ore begins
to freeze and the early laying up OF
boats which the lake transportation
companies are contemplating.
The operators are evidently playing
safe on their supply Of ore for tn,
winter months so as not TO be caught
short in case there is a pickup in the
iion business during the close OF navi-
cation.
We are told by reviewers OF the iron
trade that there is ore enough on the
Lake Erie docks and in furnace yards
at the present time TO run the iron
furnaces al a much greater capacity
tdan the furnaces are now running at
for the entire year or 1921. This is
probably true in the aggregate but
that As not tile way ore is smelted in
TO iron. While there may be a total
tonnage sufficient to last, the necessity
for mixtures or ore to produce certain
irons, necessitates the purchase OF
much new ore although there may be
plenty OF tonnage in the yards.
Increasing on The Marquette
On the Marquette range there has
been quite a healthy increase in the
shipments and last Sunday. for the
first time this season. steam shovels
were operated on Sunday. A couple
OF the Cleveland-Cliffs mines that had
been iJ}e all summer have started
shipping their stockpiles.
In Dickinson county there has been
considerable activity in the stocked
ore shipments. The Chaplin has been
forwarding ore quite regularly TO the
docks and some ore has gone from the
Aragon.
On the Gogebic there has been o
moderate increase in shipments from
some OF the properties while at others
there has been no stir ali summer.
Considerable Iron County Ore
In Iron county the ore movement
has taken on a decided increase the
past week. The Pickands-Mather
people are doing the most shipping
with shovels working al the Balkan,
Bengal, Baltic and Fogarty and oc-
casional shipments from the Amasa-
Porter There are rumors that the
Rogers-Brown and the Brule people
will move some ore this year also. The
Tully shipments have ended and the
shovel brought over here and set at
work at the odgers pile. II is said that
all OF the ore in stock at this mine
will 20 forward which will be in the
neighborhood OF 10000 tons.
The Carpenter mine finished ship
ping its allotment hast week and the
shovel was sent to the American mine
at Diorite.

Which Kind Of
Pipe-Smoker
Are You?

There's the man who doesn't care
what kind Of tobacco he smokes in his
pipe just 20 it holds fire and makes
rings.
And there's the man, minded to
have all there b to smoking, who will
fill his pipe only with tobacco Of real
quality and favor
The man who insists upon having
quality and favor in his pipe-tobacco
may have to pay somewhat more for
It nowadays than before the War.
That's true Of Edgeworth and Of good
tobacco in all forms.
But the difference In price q man
pays for good tobacco Is too narrow
to influence the judgment Of q pipe
smoker who loves his own brand.
Other things-all things-cost more
