ATHLETICS

y 70
Last Saturday the L'Anse kids der
feated the Baraga boys in hot game
Of hockey on the local rink. There
was plenty Of action during the con-
test.
L'Anse made its scores in the first
period, Baraga holding the locals
scoreless the last period while they
METER the puck three times. The
final score was to 8.
.L'Anse was defeated at Baraga
Sunday by the score Of to 2.
The L'Anse Senior team met the
Houghton Independents on the local
rink last Sunday afternoon, the home
team winning Z to o. We will not at
tempt to give detailed account of
the game, for the ice was in very soft
condition, and the only way the puck
could be carried was by the players
running on the ice instead Of skating.
It was very good-natured and clean
game, however.
L'Anse meets the Pequaning team
here Sunday afternoon, weather and
ice permitting.
The high school boys and girls
basketball teams and the City team
were defeated at Champion last Fri

seen recorded.
The boys from our neighboring
town were hopelessly outclassed, but
the girls put up very stiff battle.
With more practice or later in the sea-
son both visiting teams will be able
to give good account of themselves.

collection of newspaper misprints,
some of which are screams. At din
ner in New York be quoted a number
of them. One was about a bishop who
was laid up with cold. A newspaper
reported that he was confined to the
house with "A violent scold.'
Another told of a surgeon" being
taken alive in the river and being sold
for six cents pound. But the most
amusing one he said, was clipped
from Vermont paper. This paper,
wishing to say in praise of a very aged

"a noble old burgher proudly living

Timber Far Ahead.

What of their timber assets in the
national forests? They contain 569 bill
lion feet of standing timber or
twenty-five per cent of the remaining
timber in the United States, says the
American Forestry Magazine. All told
the national forests embrace seven
teen per cent of VI forest growing
land in the United States. In addi-
tion 10 the many millions of acres con-
taining forests of merchantable size,
there are twenty million acres bearing
young growing forests which are being
protected against fire and other forms
OF devastation so that they will pro-
duee timber crops in the years ahead.
The American Forestry association
calls on the owners, the citizens, to
protest against taking the control of
these forests from the United States
forest service.
