Over 90 Per Cent of Food Drafts
Sent to Europe Gifts From
Immigrant Population.

Out of their earnings, for the most
part as unskilled laborers, living from
hand to mouth, the foreign-bOrn els-
ment In the United States Is contribut-
ing largely to the funds for food sup
plies to aid the starving peoples Of
their native lands.
Figures from the Food Draft section
of the American Relief Administration
show that 1893, ITO had been sent to
Poland, up to the end of November.
S15S, ITO had been sent to C2echs
Slovakia, Hungary had received 1884,
760, Germany had $1,448,619 and Aus.
tria $2,O46,720. 1t was estimated that
more than 90 per cent Of this money
had been spent by nationals Of these
various countries who are now In the
United States. There are about 1900
900 Poles, 100000 Hungarians, 100000
Czechs and 100000 Sloyaks In this
country.
The profits which resulted from the
sale of these food drafts have been
turned into the fund for general child
feeding. 1t Is to bring this fund up to
the point where 1t can meet the de-
mands on 1t, TO save the lives of $780,
900 children that the European Relief
Council has been formed by eight great
relief organizations.

TOWER TEAM PUTS UP BRAVE
BATTLE AGAINST THEIR
STRONG OPPONENTS.

The Athletic Club team of bas-
ketball shooters had no snap with
the Tower boys Saturday evening
and the spectators were thrilled
with fast and snappy work on the
part of both teams. Tower took a
large number of chances from all
parts of the floor and made many
of their attempts, in fact the larg-
er part of their score was the re-
suit of long shots. Fred Farley
refereed the game and no kicks
were registered on his work.
Eikrem. and Congdon starred for
Tower and Simonson and Hegman
for Ely. Simonson made five bas-
kets, Dinsmore two, Murn one,
Skala two. Hegman. secured three
baskets and one. free throw anu
Habian one free throw. Congdon
for Tower secured three baskets,
Eikrem three, Gornick one. Thomas
had two free throws to his credit.
The score at the end of the game
stood, Tower 16, Ely 80. Those
on the teams were: Ely-Hegman

operative activities have indicated
that the entire section and not
merely few separate communities
are interested in his welfare.
Therefore, be it resolved, that
tvery community Of ST. Louis
county and the entire state OF
Minnesota should do their utmost to
attract tourists not only to their
own confines, but to the section in
which they are located; that every
community in this great playground
of the nation should realize that
the tourist activities of all work
for the success of each ono and
should grasp every opportunity to
promote closer relationship between
communities, and
"Be it further resolved, that we
believe the factors which are the
most effective in promoting tourist
business are good roads, well
marked; bureaus Of Information
and free camp grounds, and last.
but not least, the same type of
persistent, loyal and effective per-

citizen of st. Louis county that
has made popular meccas in other
