Parents Fined if Pupils Late.

According to comparative statistics
recently given out at Washington, the
Virgin Islands have the nearest to
100 per cent attendance in the pub
lie schools of any state, territory or
possession of the United States. There
education is made compulsory for all
children between and Is years of
age. When the child is absent from
school without proper excuse the par
ents are fined twenty cents each for
each day of absence, and parents are
fined 10 cents for every time a pupil
is tardy. When sickness is reported
as the cause Of absence, school nurses
investigate, and only on certificates
of these nurses is the excuse of ILL.,
ness recognized.

MINSTREL MEN
MAKE WONDERFUL HIT

The boys from the front staged 4
comeback last night In the Rex
theater when the great minstrel show
given by the American Legion went
over the top. and the boys to whom
the whole world now looks with
pride demonstrated to what was per-
haps the largest audience ever gath
cred under one roof in Ely that when
1t comes 10 stage work they could
show as much class as they did in
the Argonne and at the Marine.
First the parade, headed by Schil-
lers band, drew the people to tho
street like magnet draws needle
and success from the standpoint OF
the gate was assured. The doors
were thrown open at 7:25 and the
mad rush for the ticket Office would
make the entrance to worlds series
baseball game look like n select aft.
ernoon tea party.
The ushers in attendance handled
their work like veterans and the inn
mense throng was seated in perfec;
order until not one inch of spare
room could be found in the spacious
theater. The entire middle section
had been reserved and these seats
were soon at a premium but entirely
off the market. The S. r. o. sign was
In evidence fully a half hour before
The time set for the raising OF the
curtain, and after the show was over
one enthusiast was heard to remark
Myself and four others stood on my
one foot from 1880 until the close
of the performance.
There was not a minute wasted
and from the raising of the curtain
the large audience was kept on the
verge of commissions by the side
splitting jokes passed between Inter
locutor Vargas and Bill Edwards.
Chris Rowan, Dave Swinyard and
John Hickey, who held down the end
mems chairs like real colored "gen-
men" from the sunny south who had
made their living that way all their
lives. The solos rendered by Messrs
Baglin, Ollie, Hickey, Coleman, Swim
yard. Edwards and Armand, were met
with storms of applause which de-
manded encores despite all efforts to
rush the program through.
In the second part Hickey 4 Son
scored such a hit as monlogue ar
lists that they brought down the
house. The classic dances by Vir-
ginia Lund and the dance Of the
"Eilties' by the grammar school
students were features of the great
show. while Mrs. Gerald A. McNay.
Mrs. Anthony Jurich and William
Coleman rendered solos in a manner
that would have made some OF the
famous opera stars of the country
look to their laurels. Branch and
Coleman as musical acrobats would
make excellent headliners for any OF
the big circuits, and a cello solo by
Rudolph Parker was a musical treat
OF the highest order.
The boys left nothing for the critic
TO say last night but "one great and
grand success "

C|TYPARK IMPROVEMENT
COMMENCED THIS week

A number OF men under the direc-
tion of City Engineer Frank w. MI

municipal park site during the last
week.
As soon as the weather would per-

starting this important project and
every possible advantage will be taken
TO put the park in such shape that
the citizens will commence to get the
benefit of it without delay.
1t has been decided to cut First
street through from Aultman street

the News
This will greatly improve the site
as well as obtain additional level
acreage. While at the same time the
material necessary TO be removed in
order to run the highway straight
through along the hillside will make
an excellent covering for the park
site and forverer do away with the
red tailings. 1t will further leave a
choice building site on the west side

such points OF interest as Lehman

Impressed With Grader

Aultnnan street Will soon be made
boulevard through the entire city
limits This work is now well under
way and during the week. through
the mutual arrangements made be-
tween the city and county officials, by
which the city is permitted to use
the excellent county equipment for
road construction at cost, the big
caterpillar has been in operation first
with the scarifler and next with the
scraper. by means of which all ruts
are being removed and when the
roller has gone over IL the surface
will be as smooth as q billiard table.

preciated by the residents of this dis
trlct, but when 1t is travelled over by
thousands of tourists this summer II
will stand out as n worldwide ad-
yertisement for the city of Ely.
This section has always had by far
better than the average roads, but
with the immense amount OF road
construction now under way and con-
templated by both city and county
officials the pleasure of travelling
through White Pine county will soon
become a matter OF most general and
favorable comment.

letter when the time comes to combat
the passage of the Denison bill. and
IL 1t is all right with you may incor-
porate your letter in my remarks on
this bill in the record. Your remarks
cover the matter clearly and you voice
my sentiments exactly when you say
that the small miner. or operator. or
promoter of legitimate mining enter
prises will be irretrievably handi-
capped IL the Denison bill passes; for
it will cost something over $500 and
possibly $1,000 to register in each

pectus into a state or in fact write
a letter TO friend recommending a

son bill goes too far and will almost
entirely eliminate the possibility OF
development of our natural resources
by anyone but the very largest com
panies. and as you say these men dc
not come onto the field or into the
field until the man of small means
has produced the ore. made the pre-

II thank you for your letter and
