MARRIED. IN GRAND MARAIs #
SUNDAY BY REV. MR. NOSS

s% Last Sunday occurred the marriage
Of Miss Leda Lince, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Aaron Hnce, to Mr.. Herbert
Roy Driver, at, the home of the
brides. parents ean this village; Rev.
Mr.: q Voss: Of =. the Congregational
church officiating ~ n ~ j /.
!. There were in attendance only a
very few of the intimate friends of
the family. =: Z :. ~ ,.5G@ E. j
The intended marriage of the cou-
pie was. not a secret, but it: came as
a surprise inasmuch as it happened
sooner than the public expected it
would. - - ~ r 4
The bride spent her girlhood in
this village and secured the greater
part of her education in the Grand
Marais schools. For several years
she has been employed by the local
telephone company, att the central
station, thus becoming we'll known
in. the business circles of the COM
munity.. She was popular with her
employers and the general public
with whom. she came into daily con-
tact. She also has wide circle of
personal friends in society circles of
the county.
The groom was born in Sault> Ste
Marie, Mich, where he attended the
public schools, afterwards entering
the employ Of the Pittsburg Steam
ship Company, starting at the bot
tom and gradually rising, holding the
position of wheelsman three years
before leaving that concern, sever
ing his connection with them to en-
list in the u. S. Coast Guard five
years ago, receiving his honorable
discharge Feb. 18th al Grand Marais,
Mich.; holding the position of first
class quartermaster.
Mr. and Mrs. Driver will probably
locate in Duluth, depending upor
whether Mr.. Driver. accepts a por
sition he is now considering.

"GET.I D0NE!"

The Chamber of Commerce Of Kan
sas City recently came to the realiza. .
tion that they had under considera-
tion a great number Of Improvement
projects, but that rot much progress
was being accomplished on any Of
them. =
So a slogan "Get: it done" has been
adopted in that city, and eighty or
ganizations are now cooperating in a
"Get it done' movement. They are
putting through a number of public
improvements that had hung fire a
long time. Also the Get it Done
spirit is manifesting itself in private
business, and many executives are
cleaning up loose ends, -
1t is human nature to let a lot of
plans lie around in 11alf-developed
state. Such lot of excellent sug- y
gestions are made, that people fail
to concentrate on any one. Better
not to have so many projects but to
take hold of limited number, and
Get it Done. -. =:

The county commissioners approved
an application to the State tax COM

in assessed valuation.

in the. state, this was granted in
blanket form for the whole town.

blanket form did not adjust the in

assessment which would be uncer-

of $8,338. 81 cents in our taxes.''

Railroad and Warehouse
Order Reversed BY Judge

The hearing in the case of the State
Of Minnesota before. Judge Richard
DAILY of Renville, Minnesota, which
was held in court chambers Monday
of last week, terminatd much quicker
than was anticipated and in way
highly satisfactory to the settlers
and tax payers Of Lake County.
Attorney C. H. Christopherson,
made a motion for a dismissal of
the action and proceedings on the
ground that the Railroad and Ware
house commission had exceeded it's
authority in permitting the abandon
ment ofthe line and very ably argued
the question as to the rights of the
commission to make the ruling on the
ground that the company was oper-
ating at a loss. He maintained that
the statutes confine their scope of
authority in making findings as CO
whether there would be a substantial
loss to the public in the event of the
abandonment, a point the commission
very evidently did not take into con-
sideration.
Attorney Joseph Meyers, who was
retained by the settlers at the, outset
of the litigation two years ago and
who is responsible for the enhance of
the force of the attorney general
into the case, and who has worked.
indefatigably with very little hope of
results, argued to vacate the order
of the commission and was followed
by County Attorney Fowler, who in
am able address to the court, set
forth rights of the settler in the
premises and set forth the co,nten-
ton that the commission should be
confined to lines limited by the stat-::
utes. and = that, -. if the road could
finally be abandoned by court action

CARNATIONS.
Offers from 16 county farm bu-
reaus, aggregating nearly 80 carloads
of corn, already have come in, and IS
more counties are at work to increase
the states shipments, federation Of
fcers announced today. The first
Minnesota corn, donated by the far
ners in the nationwide famine re-
lief movement launched by the
American Farm Bureau federation,
already is ON the way to Europe. =,
Nicollet and Big Stone county
farmers were the first in the state
to get their gift corn loaded into
cars furnished free by the railroads.
The Is counties which already have
reported their relief drives we'll un-
der way probably will contribute
10000 bushels, the state federation
estimates.
One County Seeks Six Cars.
Pipestone county leads the state
in the size of it's offer. The county
bureau there is planning to load six
carloads. The Stearns county farm
bureau has set out to raise $500 in
cash, to buy corn in some other coun-
ty with surplus crop, and Meeker
county also is considering collecting
cash. Blue Earths bureau. has sent
out a call to every farmer to give
five bushels; Lyon county expects to
ship three cars; Martin county plans
to load two or more; LIE Sueur coun-
ty expects two.
The corn relief appeal will be- car
ried to thousands of Minnesotans
from the pulpit within the next two
weeks. The state federation today
sent out call to every county bu-
reau in the state to urge every min
lister in the county to tell his con-
gregation how Minnesota farmers
are saving lives in famine zones of
Europe, Asia Minor and China. No

ARCHITECT TURNS ARTIST.

Both the world Of society and the

announcement made by the Enrich Gal
leries that on January "a they will open
an exhibition Of Scottish and Newport
landscapes by j. Stewart Barney. The
news will come as a surprise 10 society.
for not many. even OF Mr.. Barncy's
friends at Newport, know that he has
turned artist and the art world. which
has long known him as q proponent OF
Americanism in architecture and the en-
emy Of misft- Old World styles as APP

he has been dev0ting himself % the

The exhibition. according to the an

in scotland. where he has q shooting

artist near his summer home.
In architecture Mr.. Barney. after win
ming many laurels in the practice Of his
profession, suddenly became an icono-
clast. and his attacks on the work done
by the followers OF the Ecole dcs Beaux
Arts In this country aroused bitter
controversy to which the newspapers
gave much space. lie stood almost alone
In his position, but only a few years
have suficcd 10 justify all that he said
and to turn him into. prophet who ac-
tually is not without honor IN his own
country. For Mr. Barney was tho first
to see the possibilities for beauty IN the
steel and concrete OF the American sky
sCrara~, and the first TO attack those In
his profession who Insisted on trying 10
disguise the steel and concrete by means
Of old World forms which, with all the
sarcasm for which he Is noted, he de-
nounced as unsuited and absurd.
Mr.. Barney denounced the architects
who made the first tall buildings In New
York look shorter either 5v means OF
horizontal ornamentation Or by giving
different treatment 20 difervrt sectiona
which. piled on top OF one another, re-
sembled several separate structures
