THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"MIss NANCY.

ITO STATE that a person In

equivalent to declaring
that, II a man. he is effeminate
or, II a woman, that she Is prud-

had its origin In the person OF
Mrs. Anna Oldfield. a celebrated
actress, who died In 1880 and
who was buried In Westminster
Abbey.
Mrs. Oldfield, known to all her
associates as Miss Nancy" was
extremely vain about her dress
and the appearance of her hands
and hair. AS her body lay In
state, attended by two noblemen.
she was attired according to her
last wishes In "a very fine Brus-
sels-lace head-dress, Holland
shift with a tucker and double
ruffies of the same lace and a
pair of new kid gloves" The
actress wishes In the matter OF
the clothing of her corpse pro-
voked considerable comment at
the time. particularly as an Act
Of Parliament had decreed that,

dead should be buried In wooden

were followed to the letter and

the, writer's bill to provide for the
work of the st. Louis County Club
was meant in fact to provide revenue
for propaganda against tonnage tax.
The fact that Northeastern Mime
sofa will some day be an agricultural
rival of Southern Minnesota is fact
that few Southern Minnesota folks
are aware of. What they don't
know about the. agricultural posi-
bilities of the north would fill a book
so big that it would give Webster's
Unabridged lean and hungry look.
If there is any one public activity
which stands out above all others in
st. Louis county, it is the vigor and
the persistence and the success of the
attempt to develop the agricultural
resources of the county. Try to help
this movement along by legislation,
however, and you promptly get your
self suspected. This situation is a
part of the adeplorable misunder-
standing that exists, between the
North and the South, misunder-
standing due to fundamental differ
ences in conditions and interests.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1921-04-01

These misunderstanding will some
day be cleared up and, Minnesota will
become a great, united, super re-
sourceful state, but now it is house
divided against itself; now, despite
the general kindness of the people
of the South, Ignorance and Pre-
JUDGE are in the saddle and riding
hard.
Occupation Tax MIDDLE.
Representative McPartlin's tax
bill, being dead, yet speaketh, and
tonnage takers fear that, like Ban
quo's ghost, it will rise to plague
them for long time to come. They
stutter over McPartlin's occupation
tax almost as hopeless as some folks
do over McPartlin's county of Koo-
chiching. The tax committee killed
Mr.. McPartlin's bill and the house
buried it with all possible dispatch
but the gentleman from Koochiching
charged on the floor of the house
that Anthony WEIGH, who had hand
in its death, openly boasted that the
Nonpartisan League would disinter it
and make it live political issue two
years hence, and Tony did not deny
it.
The eagerness with which the tom
mage takers voted for the occupation
tax some two weeks ago and the haste
with which they turned tail and voted
against it last week reminds some
of us of the King of France who
marched up the hill with full ten
thousand men and then marched
down again.
They are talking about Speaker
Nolan for Mayor Of Minneapolis
The members of the legislature would
support him with might and main for
mayor, governor or president.
There is talk, too, about the next
Speaker. When they are not too
busy running him for congress, the
gossips name Ted Christensen of
Lac qui Parle. If the tonnage tax
amendment passes the senate and is
adopted by the people in 1922, Char
lie Warner of Aitkin will be dan
gerous candidate. But for the fatal
fault of coming from st. Louis
county Charlie Murphy would give
them all real race There are
others, both hardy perennials and
dark horses, who are also running
well just now.
From now on until April 81, mem
bers of the legislature will be in a
fever of excitement over local bills

meet twice day. Special orders
will be the regular thing and oratory
and roll calls will reign supreme.

Stacker MONEY.
(By F. A. Wilson,

(By F. A. Wilson,
At the present time there IS some
thing like Is billion dollars on dep
osit in the banks of America.
This sum greases the wheels OF
industry; it pays the employe and
buys new goods and machinery. In
other words it is the money used for
business.
If there was more workable cap
ital. there would be more business.
More business means less unem-
ployment; it means prosperity.
Another five billion or ten billion
dollars would make things hum.
And it could be had. If all the
frozen money" spent for diamonds
or tucked away in old tea cups, bur-
eau drawers, under the mattrass and
in the pocket was added to the money
spent for Amalgamated Headache
Oil stock and other members of the
nefarious et-Rich-Quick-Nit family
and this money put to work there
would be no doubt about the wheels
of commerce humming merrily.
Money was made to use, not to
decorate a tea-cup. Carrying $25
around in your pocket doesn't do you
any good, it only helps to keep down
the workable capital of the nation
and nonworkable capital is about as
valuable as the hole in doughnut.
What can we do about it?
Take no chance with our money.
Invest part of our income regularly
Do not hoard. Do not lug around a
fat purse. A few dollars usually is
enough
Save your money but don't freeze
it. A SIS United States Treasury
stamp is as safe as five dollar bill
and more desirable because it is earn
ing you interest.
That is one illustration of the Sen
sible way VS.. the Teacup way.
There are many other ways in
which your own and your country's
finances may be improved.
The big point is:
Be personally responsible for the
money you handle; make it go to
work.

The Spirit of the Legion.

Three years ago, under the leader
ship of General Pershing, the United
States built up in short time, one
of the greatest armies the world has
ever known. 1t was composed of
young men, of whom more than one
hundred thousand were Minnesotans.
The greatness of that army was
due to its patriotism, which gave all,
even life, without counting the cost,
for love of liberty and country.
That spirit did not die when the AM
erican Army disbanded. 1t still lives
in the hearts of 100000 men of
whom more than 100000 have
united in the American Legion.
The American Legion represents
patriotism, loyalty to country and
comrades, devotion to the ideals and
principles on which the republic was
founded. 1t stands loyalty behind
is disabled buddies and insists that
they receive proper care, treatment
and compensation. And it stands
for the square deal for all former
service men. But above all, it stands
for, it works for, and it believes in
The Glory that is America"
To decorate the grave of every
American soldier who sleeps on for
eign soil, every Legionaire will con-
tribute ten cents to his post, to be
forwarded through state headquart-
ers to the National Treasurer, who
will render a public account of all
money received. Contributions from
private citizens may be accepted by
posts, which may also transmit special
contributions with detailed instruct
ions for decorating particular graves
in a special manner.
Twelve hundred gold stars shine
from their blue background on the
huge service flag in the State His

Minnesota's sacrifice in the great
war. But that is not all. New stars
are being added as new names are
received. Many are yet to be re-
ported.

Athletic and other teams and bands
using the name of the American
Legion must be made up of Legion
aires, according to the ruling of the
state executive committee. Previous
to this ruling there was no author
tive decision to guide the Legion
posts of Minnesota on this point.
Until Congress agrees upon the
method of distributing captured Ger
man war trophies, the only way a
Minnesota town can secure its trophy
is by having it's congressman intro
duce special bill naming exactly
what type of war trophy is wanted
and the town for which it is re-
quested.

places the words ''Join the u. S.

Creenleaf Leader
I'm Billiard Match
By Large Margin

Displaying championship form for
the first time since the start of the
match at the Astor Hotel for the pro-
fessional pocket billiard title, Ralph
Greenleaf, the local player who is de-
Tending his crown, increased his lead
over Arthur Woods, the challenger.
Greenleaf won last nights block 148
to Sc, making the total score 305 to 219.
1t was an unfinished run of Sc points
that decided the issue. Greenleaf ral-
lied after slow start, which was
marked by nervousness and uncertain
play. Woods was largely responsible
for the poor showing Of the champion
in the early innings, for the challenger
played a close game, resorting to the
safety at every opportunity. In fact,
Woods tried to untgeneral his oppo-
nent, and for a while succeeded, but
when Greenleaf hit his stride he far
outclassed Woods in every department
of the game.
Greenleaf also had run Of 26 in the
thirteenth inning. 1t was here that he
threw off the strained method of play
and relaxed to the extent that his nat
uaral grace and poise In execution re-
turned. Previous to this Greenleaf
scratched three times in succession, be-
ing penalized fifteen points, as called
for in the rules.
The final block Of the match will be
decided tomorrow, and Greenleaf
should win easily.
