Ripley IS name in New Eng
land that has for many, many years
been identified with the intellectual
life there. The founder of the fam
ily came from bingham, England

rived from places so called in Sur

far and wide for his forgiving and
nature During the Revo-
Iution his house and all his pos
sessions were burned by the Brit

The current of events was strong
and too smooth to be noticed.
To conceal anything I have in my
mind from my dear husband is un-
thinkable-but here I am and what
am I to do?
Brooding over my plight, I re-
called what Mary had said one day;
"I tell Andy everything!"
To this complacency, Jeanne ALI
son responded sharply:
Even when you know your hus-
band has secrets from you? About
business, now. Do you suppose your
Andy tells you everything?"
I put the question to Jack, just so,
and he said that he'd never thought
at all about the subject, that my
question amused him!
You girls! Do you waste time
discussing that kind of bunk?"
"why, yes! Don't men?"
Not that I ever heard!"
but you men have lots of secrets
from us, now, don't you?"
"why-no! why-yesl Peggins,
It's hard for a man to bet at what
a wife means. sometimes, you sound
so deep, like a lecture on ethics, you

stand that Andy Smiths stenog-
rapher knows more about his bank
account than his wife does!" as
serted hotly, rather hurt, 1 couldn't
tell why.
What If she does? Doesn't his
or bookkeeper or some
body have to bank his checks and
verify the figures in his bank book? ?"

do the banking just for the sake of
knowing what's In the book, al
though do not doubt at all that
Andy's secretary likes to think she
knows something Mrs. Smith
Doesn't SO there, Jack Madison!"
MARY can have the information
for the asking But she gets peeved,
vou say, because the stenographer

There's sex in business for you'll !

OF THE LONESOME PINE" TO THE
SOLDIERS OF THE WORLD WAR
IRON co. SOLDIERS OBJECT
Many of Them Are in Favor oi
Planting a Tree For Each
Veteran Along Highways

Someone with more zeal than good
sense. proposed that the Lonesome
Pine" tree on the Cloverland Trail a
short distance west OF the Iron-Goge-
bic line be dedicated to the memory OF
the soldiers of the World War. The
suggestion was taken lightly at first
until II was found that il really had
taken root and that the proposal
had been passed up TO the board OF
supervisors of Gogebic county who
alone have the right to set aside the
county's property to any such a
purpose
When the thing got TO that stage
ii was considered seriously and many
objections were filed against IL by
the Iron county leaders among the ex-
soldiers. Such leaders as Captain A.
l.. Burridge of Crystal Falls and Guy
Cox OF Iron River are understood TO
be opposed to the plan. even should
Iron county be invited to join with
Gogebic, contingency that is not
altogether certain.
FAyOr Tree Planning
Almost all OF the boys with whom
the writer has talked upon this sub
ject favor the planting of trees along
the road side. each tree to bear the
name Of man who enlisted from this
county.
Asked about the up-keep of the trees
the boys suggest that the work be
turned over TO the county road COM
mission and that II be part OF the work
OF the station men along the lines.
II is probable that many OF the trees
so planted Will die out and these must
be replanted and cared for until they
get perfect root and are able TO take
care OF themselves.
The tree planting stunt was advo-
Gated first by the Illinois authorities
and got considerable publicity in the
Chicago Tribune. II has spread TO
other states so that many places arc
now taking up the proposition. It is
probable that as soon as the Legion
men get united upon the proposition
and get back OF some kind OF me-
mortal the plan will be pushed.

CLUB REGULATIONS

The Crystal Falls Club held meet
Ing last Monday might at which some
important steps were taken. In the
first place 1t was decided to make a
membership drive to increase the
membership to so and when that num-
ber is reached the books will be clos
ed and no one can then become n
member unless some one of the Hity
drops out or dies In which case the
first on the waiting list will be chos-
en- and SO on down the list.
The club is in good shape now, the
membership being sufficient to pay the
running expenses which constitute
rent light and telephone only.
The membership lists OF the Legion
and the Club were ordered posted and
the steward instructed to deny ad-
mission TO anyone not on the list, the
exception being out-of-town guestg,
who come but rarely to the city.
Travelling statesmen and others visit
ing the city at regular intervals must
take out foreign membership In or,
der TO gain admission. The privil-
ege exercised by local members of
both the Club and Legion OF bringing
town visitors to the rooms never did
legally exist and II is positively for
hidden now.
The steward was ordered to turn
out the lights and close the rooms ev-
cry week night at 1900 o'clock and
on Saturday nights at 100 o'clock.
The regulation as to visitors does
not apply TO the Rotary Club. woman's
Club or the Auxiliary which uses the
rooms only for meeting purposes. The
regulations are meant to apply TO the
regular evening occupation Of the
rooms. The Legion has taken strin-
gent action TO stop imposition upon 1t
by persons not belonging to the Post
but partaking OF the advantages OF
the Posts club rooms. At the last
meeting a resolution excluding all To-
cal ex-seryice men not members OF
the Legion from the Club rooms was
passed and in order that the move
might not bear hard upon some OF the
boys who have been out OF work and
are therefore shy OF funds. twenty

FORMER TEACHER DISAPPEARED
Miss 0rdelia Southard, Last Years
Domestic Science Teacher Drop
ped Out OF Sight In Detroit

The Detroit papers last week car
ried story telling OF the sudden
disappearance OF Miss Ordelia
|Southard, teacher in the Hough-
ton school of Detroit, and last year
director OF Domestic Science in the
Crystal Fails schools.
Miss Southard resigned her posi-
ton here to accept one in Detroit SO
as TO be near her folks She had two
sisters living in the city and her
mother was in Detroit during the
holidays visiting her daughter.
A week ago Thursday the moth
er asked Ordelia to go with her to
visit one OF the sisters. Miss South
ard said that she was not feeling well
but consented TO go with her mother
and did go.
After dinner she again complained
of illness and said that she would go
home and lie down. Her mother ac-
companied her to the street car and
saw her get aboard. From that time
nothing has been seen or heard OF
her.
When Miss Southard was in Crys-
tai Falls she boarded at the Dahl
residence and a message was re-
ceived by the Dahls during the week
from the Detroit authorities asking
IL they knew anything about the girl
that would lead to any clues as to
her whereabouts.
Miss Southard Ia reported to have
been engaged to be married soon
There is nothing reported as TO her
habits while in Detroit that would
lead anyone to any clues as 10 what
may have become OF her. Up until
the present her whereabouts is a
mystery.
Interest was added to her disap-
pearance in Detroit by the fact that
two high school girls has disappear
ed during the same week In a myster-
ious manner.

WORKING HARD ON ROADS
Snow Plow Was Sent Out at Nine
O'Clock Last Week Wednesday
In Teeth Of Blizzard

Iron county Is certainly doing its
share to get the roads OF the county
plowed after each storm. There was
some complaint because the road
crews waited until the day after a
storm to plow so Engineer Larson
Larson got them out last week We'd
nesday night when the blizzard was
at It's height. The crew with the 20
ton catipillar left the county garage
at 900 o'clock p. m. and set out for
Iron River. The night was a terrible
one to be out in but the boys stuck
TO II and got to Iron River at 600
o'clock a. m. They fed and then Start
ed for Beechwood. turned around
there and came back to Crystal Falls
getting home late in the evening
The contriyance used for cleaning
the snow from the Iron county roads
is doing the work well and de-
scription of II may be OF interest.
The motive power is the 20-ton
Holt catipillar tractor. The original
intention was to use the lotion but
the 20-ton is found to be the best
this year.
Behind the tractor is the largest
Road King grader, mounted on run
ners and behind the grader is a
small house used for the men at
lunch time and TO make repairs on
the road. An emergency kit OF tools
As carried so that any ordinary break
down can be repaired right on the
spot.
The original apparatus has roll
er hitched behind the grader but
that item has been discontinued for
the reason that il made the road
rough. just like the chatter bumps OF
the gravel road. The grader cuts the
snow down to within few inches OF
the surface OF the road and throws
the snow removed out to one side. In
the operation the tractor takes one
side OF the road and teams are al
ways able to pass on the other half
whereas with an A-plow II is very
difficult and almost impossible for
an automobile TO get past.
The apparatus has been working
well so far and Iron county's roads
are better kept this winter than ever
before.
Some complaint has been heard
about the road to the Sagola dine
but the trouble there is that the big
apparatus cannot get across the
Paint river bridge. AS soon as the
state constructs the new bridge the
machine will be run east also.
Engineer Larson tells us that the
tractor can make Beechwood and
back In one day if they meet with no
trouble and the following day Amasa
and Alpha can be made. II takes
three or four days TO clean all OF the
trunk lines after each storm.
