SCOUTS RETURN
FROM CAMP.
BOY SCOUTS HAVE FINE TIME
AT BURNSIDE LAKE COM
MUHiTY CAMP.

The first real camping trlp OF the
Boy Scouts ended Wednesday after
noon when the boys returned from
their ten days stay at the Community
Gasp on the East end of BURNSIDE
Lake. Although much of the time
was taken up by the work of com
plotting the construction of the camp,
time was found for many activities.
The daily program consisted of
hitting the deck" at z 100 A. NJ.
Setting up exercises followed by the
morning dip at TAO; breakfast at
7:45; cleaning up camp till $50
when inspection was held. From
$50 to IL 80 was play and Scout
period followed by free period till
dinner time at 1890. The hour fol-
lowing dinner was quiet hour fol-
lowed by more games, swimming and
instruction till $40 when the boys
had another free period until supper
hour at $50. Supper was followed
by games and camp fire with stories
and songs after which the boys roll
led in under the cover of mosquito
netting and fly dope and enjoyed ten
good hours of sleep.
The daily routine was broken at
many times with extra work and at
one time by fighting small forest
fire across the lake left by some care
less campers.
Taken as a whole it was a most
successful camping trip and good
time was had by all the boys.
The Girl Scouts will occupy the
camp next week and other ergani-
cations will occupy the place every
week during the camping season. The
Boy Scouts will take other times at
the camp later in the season.

Remember These Facts.

The proper name for the roads
which the state of Minnesota will
maintain and hardsurface under con-
stitutional amendment No. / adopted
by the people last November is min
nesota Trunk Highway"
These roads in time will probably
come to be known largely by their
official number as given in the consti-
tutional amendment and it will be
interesting and convenient for people
of Northern Minnesota to know the
proper name for the Minnesota High
ways in this section of the state, for
every one of them is main, arterial
highway.
Minnesota Trunk Highway No. l is
the road from St. Paul to Duluth and
begins at the Iowa line south of AL
bert Lea and extends north through
Northfeld, st. Paul and Duluth and
northeast along Lake Superior to the
Canadian line south of Port Arthur.
The road between Virginia, Hibbing
and Grand Rapids, threading the CEN
ter of the Mesaba range is Minnesota

Doing Much Good Work.

The people of Ely were most pleas
antly honored Saturday when they
enjoyed a visit with H. Johnson,
general passenger agent of the Dull
nth & Iron Range, who in company
with Joe Seifert, secretary and treas
urer of the Duluth, Missabe & North
ern, and son, and Mr.. German, a
Duluth architect were here and in
spected the several resorts and out
ing places advertised in the handsome
folder issued by Mr.. johnson for the
D. & R. In company with local
people in the car of DIR. Ayres, the
party went to BURNSIDE Lodge and
White Iron Beach where they were
entertained by the management and
also visited other places. Mr.. john
SON was very much impressed with
improvements made in this vicinity
since his last visit and said he was
well satisfied with the publicity given
this section and that everything said
of it was deserved. He was more
than enthusiastic over the work being
done here by the citizens and espec-
tally the Commercial Club in the
matter of providing tourist facilities
and said Ely had the proper system,
besides having everything in the line
of climate, roads, lakes, woods, canoe
routes and resorts to back up the
statements made. In all truth, we
will state that Mr. Johnson has done
more than any one man to attract
attention to the resort possibilities
along the railroad line he represents.
For many years he has issued hand
some souvenir folders extolling the
Lake Vermilion and Ely districts and
has spent mint of money in so
doing. All this is beginning to
bear fruit and tourists are coming
here by the thousands yearly. We
have known H. Johnson for many
years and while many times he has
been misunderstood, we have always
found him gentleman open to rea-
son and with the welfare of his
people at heart. He promised to
come more often and secure first
hand information regarding this Sec
ton and get in closer touch with the
people of Ely and vicinity. We
will be pleased to see him at. any
time and feel that his wise counsel on
publicity and country improvement
will be of vast benefit.

Rotary Club Behind Training Camp

Rotary Club Behind Training Camp.
Wednesday evenings dinner and
meeting of the Ely Rotary Club at
the Community Center was attended
by all members excepting those out of
the city. General Superintendent
West of Virginia and Major M. R.
Nyman of Duluth were outside Wis
itors at the meeting After most
appetizing dinner served by the
Presbyterian ladies, DIR. H. j. Lock-
hart gave short talk on children's
teeth and the proposed free clinic
and teeth supervision to be estab-
lished by the School Board. His talk
was well given and created consid-
cradle enthusiasm. The Club by
unanimous vote went on record as
being behind the movement and res
olutions to this effect will be sent the
School Board Maj M. r. Nyman
spoke on the training camp to be
established and opened for thirty
days at Fort Smelling on August 1.
The Major is in charge of securing
recruits for the camp in this dis
trict which embraces the northern
end of the state and is desirious of
having large number to take ad-
vantage of the splendid oppor-
tunity offered by Uncle Sam to get
good training without any military
obligations or expense attached.

EAST DULUTH
WINS SUNDAY.
VISITORS TAKE SNAPPY GAME
FROM THE ELY TEAM
ON z TO SCORE.

The East Duluth ball team under
the management of H. Chris Johnson
came up Sunday and drubbed US
by the narrow margin of z to 6.
Although the game required two
hours and twenty minutes to play,
every minute of that time was fully
taken up and it was plainly evident
from the very beginning that neither
side had cinch. Spickler for Ely,
struck out 6 of the hard hitters from
Lakeside and Snetzinger on the
mound for the visitors took twelve
scalps. Gianotti and Bouski for Ely
both had an off day and their work
was not up to standard, while Nor
avitz took everything coming his way
into camp. Six errors are charged
up to Ely boys and Duluth has only
one on its side of the ledger. It look
ed like walk-out in the eighth in
ming when Lambert cut first base and
the Duluth players protested to the
umpire. Cox was watching third
base play and failed to see the short
cut on the part of Lambert and took
no cognizance of the protest. The
visitors walked off the field but saner
counsel prevailed and they finished
the inning. The score was tied at
this point.
Johnson, the manager of the Dull
nth team is an old range boy having
been resident of Virginia for twelve
years. He also played ball at Ishpem-
ing, Mich, and Virginia before going
to Duluth. He was player manager
of the Exelsiors at Ishpeming in 1903
when they won the championship of
Marquette county. He has a good
bunch of ball players in the East
Duluth team and an extra good man
in McInnis on first. We hope to see
the team here again and promise
them the strongest game they ever
went up against on their next visit.
Next Sunday and Monday the
Alpha Omega team of Duluth will
be here for two games. This team
has an excellent reputation both as
ball players and gentlemen and two
fine contests are in prospect The
boys here Sunday said the team for
next Sunday and Monday was better
than the ordinary. The box score

Fame Spreading.

H. Johnson, general passenger
agent of the Duluth & Iron Range
railroad, states that the tourist bus
mess of Lake Vermillion and of the
Superior Forest Reserve will break
all records this year. This delight
full region is becoming more widely
known every year The Superior
National Forest in Minnesota is
matched just across the international
border by the Quetico reserve. The
Superior National Forest is studded
with hundreds of lakes and traversed
on the North by the international

A FINE AFFAIR.
WHITE IRON INN FORMALLY
OPENED SATURDAY EVENING
WITH LUNCH AND DANCE.

Although large crowds had been
present for the past two weeks at
White Iron Beach, Ely's newest sum-
mer resort, the formal opening did
not take place until Saturday night
with banquet and dance. Nearly
two hundred couples were present
and enjoyed the excellent music fur

The Saturday and Sunday pre-
vious, some three hundred people
were present at the Beach the occas-
ion being the meeting and picnic of
the range members of the Knights
of Columbus who were the guest of
the Ely members of the order. For
Sunday dinner, 236 covers were laid
and the Knights were so favorably
impressed that they decided to hold
an annual picnic and get-to-gether
meeting at the Beach.
During the evening Saturday, Geo.
L. Brozich, head of the Superior
National Forest Outing Company,
owners of the Beach resort made a
short talk to the assembled guests
outlining the POLICIES of the Beach
in regard to the conduct of affairs.
He also announced that a speciality
would be made of Sunday chicken
dinners and Friday fish dinners and
invited the local people to take ad-
vantage of this beautiful outing
place. He said the Beach was for
local people as well as outsiders and
that all would receive the best of
attention. He also cautioned un-
desirable guests to give the place
wide berth and that gentlemanly and
lady-like conduct would prevail.
The new hotel is beautiful place
and commands view of the lake
unsurpassed. Located as it is on top
of the rocky bluff overlooking White
Iron Lake to the north and east it
presents fine appearance. A spac-
ious dining room, capable of seating

filling up and many reservations are
on file for later in the season.
