Arrangements for Boxing Match on
May 80 Have Been Declared on

There will be no boxing matches in
Michigan on Memorial Day. SO has
decreed Governor Groesbeck and this
decree has met with general response
especially from the ex-seryice men
who were planning to hold such
matches.
The local Legion post had some
plans laid to pull of a match but
since the decree of the governor came
out the boys not only have cancelled
their arrangements but they enthus-
dastically support the decision OF the
commission.
Included in the list of boxing cele-
brities who were slated for this line
up at Benton Harbor were Benny Leo
nard. lightweight champion, Joe
Lynch, bantam champion, and Bob
Martin who aspires to win laurels in
the heavyweight class.
Il agree with the governor that
Memorial Day Is no time for boxing
contests" said Commissioner Thomas
w. Bigger. with the exception OF
Christmas this day has come to be
the most sacred and universally OBJ
served OF any in our country. There
are other days when boxing matches
may be properly staged and from now
on in Michigan II is certainty there
will be no more OF them Memorial
day. This day is even now more prec-
ious 70 America than ever, In view OF
the losses we sustained in the World
War"

sLACKER LISTS

The first OF the Stacker lists-.lists
of names OF men who evaded the draft
in which Michigan Is Interested
was published last Monday. Ii con-
tanned lot of names OF men from
Houghton and Mackinaw counties.
Army authorities admit that these
lists are not perfect and agree that
they probably contain names OF men
who are heroes instead OF towards.
The publication wil,, however. clean
the record of all such and leave only
the real slackers TO go down into his
tory under that class.

SMALL LOTS BEING SENT TO DOCKS
FROM PARTICULAR MINES
WAGE CUT 0vERsHADows ALL
Oliver Mining Company Scale is
Now on a Par With Most OF
the Independents

Yes, some ore is moving but II is q
very small sum. Possibly less ore will
90 forward from all of the docks this
month that usually goes from one port
In the average May month.
Iron county ore ds dribbling down,
little from the Delta property OF
the Wickwire interests and some from
the Dober mine OF the oliver. These
two properties were the only ones up
v few days ago that were In the
shipping list dn any manner whatever.
Dickinson county Is sending some
ore from the Chaplin over the Milwau-
kee road and the Aragon mine at Nor
way. ,also a steel corporation properly,
is loading from the pocket. The
shipments are light as the properties
are being worked only four days per
week
Wage Cut Most Important
The long threatened wage cut Of
the oliver Iron Mining Co has at last
become a reality. II was put into
effect on Monday last and places the
workmen at most of the mining prop
ertdes in the district on about the
same basis.
There are some exceptions. At the
mines OF the Mdvale Company
miners are working for $2.65 per day,
so it Is claimed and at the mines of
the Davidson company at Iron River
a second cut OF 25e6 was made a short
time ago. bringing miners at that
cempany's mines down to about
level OF 1918, which is a pretty fair
wage az that.
Expect July VIII See Break
Mining men are all at sea as to tut
ure business. There Is sort OF feel
ing, perhaps, more of a hope than a
belief-that the break will come about
July i. There will probably be some
ore sent down in June but Il will be
a small amount unless there Is a de-
cided change from present indications.
That the railroad freight situation
has something to do with the delay Is
quite certain. Ore freight from the
Iron county district 10 the boat at Es-
canada is now above dollar per ton
against a rate Of 40 cents only a few
years ago. This increase OF 60 cents
per ton Is big item and IL is posi-
BILE that the operators can see some
of this increase sliced off before they
ship much ore.

Lo.oF. ENcAMPMENT HOLDS 1922
SESSION HERE AND IRON RIVER
GIVEN LAST YEAR
Will Mean Nearly 500 Visitors to
These Two Cities and Puts Big
lob on Entertainers

"A message was received from p. o.
Brien, who Is representing Columbia
Encampment at the 1921 session OF
the /. o. o. f. Encampment reading
las follows:
THE next session Of the Grand En-
campment, Independent Order OF Odd
Fellows, will be held in Crystal Falls
and Iron River in May, 1922. The
vote was unanimous in going to the
upper peninsula"
The annual sessions OF the Grand
Encampment are held* during the
third week Of May, which means that
just one year from the present week
there will be in the neighborhood of
500 visitors from all over lower
Michigan, in Crystal Falls.
Invited Last Year
The invitation TO hold the 1922 ses-
sion OF this organization in Crystal
Falls and Iron River was extended to
the Grand Encampment in 1920 by
Thomas Condin, a past officer OF the
body. 1t was given under the i'm
preston that the new hotel would be
completed by 1922 Since extending
the invitation Mr.. Conlin had forgot
ten the matter completely, and the
hotel tagging, there was no inclina-
tion on his part to push the matter.
However, Mr.. o'Brien, when he
found the ground so fertile to bring
ing this important meeting to the Me-
nominee range, redoubled his effort
and landed the meeting without any
opposition.
Means Big Task
The lack or hotel facilities here
means a big task unless the work on
the new project, which is expected to
start about July /, will get so far a.
long that the building will be ready
for occupancy on that occasion. If
so the task will be simplified greatly,
III not, II means that the visitors must
be entertained at private homes and
that is a big task. Iron River, will,
OF course, take care of a large num-
ber, but even with the hostelry open
over there II means big job to take
care of so many visitors.
The local encampment will get busy
at once on plans. II Is the plan 10
divide up the work between the two
towns. Automobile owners will be
asked to convey the entire body to Ir-
on River and back. for one OF the two
lay sessions OF the body.

SOUTH CAROLINA STILL BEHIND.
Tho December Campaign is Being
Looked to with Great Hope.

That South Carolina, as compared
with some Of her neighboring States,
is somewhat behind in the care and
| treatment Of its thousands Of eases
from the State headquarters Of the
South Carolina Tuberculosis Associa-
ton at Columbia. The campaign that
began Dec. 1st for the sale Of health
bonds and Christmas Seals is cX-
pected to enlarge the work now be-
ing carried on to decrease the spread
Of the disease in this State.
According to figures compiled for
the year 1919 the Palmetto State
and Mississippi each lost 1876 citizens
for every 100000 population from
tuberculosis. Mississippi appropri
ated to combat the disease a sum OF
one million dollars. This will erect
sanitarium capable of treating six
hundred cases at one time. Plans
are boing made to add accommo la
tlons which will care for a hundred
more, increasing the capacity to one
thousand beds.
South Cardinals appropriation IS
$61, 1895, or about $93S,000 less
than its neighbor. The appropriation
In this State was for the State SAM
tarium and the negro hospital known
as the Palmetto Sanitarium.
In North Carolina, where 1872 out
Of 100000 were killed by tuberculo-
sis. there are 1,775 beds available.
200 of which are at Sanitorium, n.
G. An appropriation Of 100000 by
that State will provide for negro pa
tients, while an additional allowance
Of 100000 has been made for the
further development Of Sanitorium.
With the meagre appropriation in
this State available for work in this
important cause, it is hoped that the
amounts brought in by the sale of
health bonds and Christmas Seals
will be sufficient TO greatly increase
the efficiency Of the work that is so
badly needed in our State.

THE FIRST HANDICRAFT EHIsIT
At Tamassee School Was an Inspiring
OccasiOn-Many Present.

The past and the present we're
united in the various types Of handi
craft shown. In the vicinity are n
great many old homesteads-land
marks in Oconee county - notably
! the original "Tamassee," the home
of Mrs. C. Jones; the "Red House,"
where Gen. Andrew Pickens once
lived, now the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Il. NJ. Kelley; and Oconee Station,
the present home of the Misses
| Green.
From these and neighboring homes
were collected handiwork, old and
! new, ranging from home-woven COW
| let's in many designs and coloringS,
homespun dresses, etc., to the most
dainty laces and embroideries; from
in raftia weaving, and from wood
work, such as chairs, "cards and
reels and spinning wheels" to wood
carvings and bird houses.
Among the relics was sampler,
shown by Mrs. Cornelia Jones, the
stitches being exquisitely done by
Mrs. Hannah O'Hanlon Jones in
1897. There was also Il sample Of the
wedding dress Of Mrs. c. Jones, who
spun the thread, wove the cloth and
made the dress.
Demonstrations were given in the
art Of spinning and reeling. much to
the interest and enjoyment of all,
especially Of the school children, who
with their teachers, d. V. Alexander

Many visitors attended the exhibit,
and much enthusiasm was aroused
along the line of developing talents
