ory of General Robert E. Lee by cete+
brating his birthday, January 19 has
been turned down by George II. Ward,

because Lee resigned his commission
in the United States army and then

federal government 1t was a poor ex-
ample to the youth of the nation to
lionize him.

Rock Hill, February 25.-The Sc
cret advertising committee of the Rock
Hill Merchants association, it is un-
derstood, is confronted with rather
ticklish problem relative to school
publications. The senior class of
Winthrop college taps the local mer-
chants every year rather heavily for
advertising for it's Annual. The mer-
chants don't object to that especially,
because the Winthrop students spend
thousands of dollars with the mer-
chants here in the course Of a year.
This year the graduating class Of Win
throp Training school decided that
they too would get out an Annual, in
which would be recorded the acts Of
fame intellectually and athletically of
the boys and girls who graduate from
that school. So they have struck the
merchants for advertisements in their
annual. Most of the merchants, des-
pite the fact that they knew good and
well the advertising wasn't worth
shucks, because the annual will have
no circulation and further because 1t
thing else, allowed themselves to be
taxed, although with much grumbling.
1t Is admitted here in some quarters
that there is considerable rivalry be-
tween the Rock Hill High school and
Winthrop Training school and the
High school students, not to be out
done by the Training school students,
have come to the conclusion that their
graduating class must get out an An
nual too. They too, noting the sue
cess the Training school students had
in taxing the merchants with goodly
portion of the cos: of publication, are
calculating on working the same
racket. But the merchants have heard
about it and most of them have come
to the conclusion that they are going

Eggs and Chickens Drop.
There has been quite a perceptible
drop in the wholesale price of eggs and
chickens in Rock Hill this week. Peo-
pie living in the country around who
were here today with eggs, sold them
at 35 cents a dozen, while Saturday a
week ago they were getting a. cents a
dozen. Fat hens brought 20 cents a
pound here today, while Soosters sold
for five cents a pound less.

New Addition at Pureair.

The tri-County sanatarlum com
mittee held meeting at Ashland
last Friday and opened bids on
the building of an addition to Pure
air sanatarium at Bayfield,, main
tanned by Bayfield,, Ashland and
Iron counties.
The general contract on the
alternate bid was awarded the
Hutter Construction company of
Fond du Lac at S34,4G2. The
heating contract went to Upthe-
grove and McGinn for 81 o69 and
the same firm secured the plumb
ing contract for 81, 222.
The addition will be about the
size of the present building, two
stories high, and will provide n
additional rooms for patients.
The building of an addition to
Pureair sanatarium has been made
necessary because of the crowded
condition of the present building
and the need of more room to ac-
comodate the many who should be
receiving treatment at the insttu-
ton.
Daniel Reid, Vic J Simon and
/ J. J. Defer are the Iron county
members of the sanatarium com.

No Second Term for Sheriffs This Year.

Wisconsin shertfs cannot run
for re election at the November
general election, all pending con-
stitutional amendments allowing
the practice to the contrary not
withstanding.
This was the reply of Attorney
General VIM. J. Morgan in an
opinion given the district attorney
of Waushara county.
The constitutional amendment
passed by the 1927 legislature, is
placed before the people for approx
al or disapproval on the official
ballot in November, and provides
for the repeal of that section of
the state constitution which says
that "sherifs will not be eligible
to run legally for re election until
two years after their term expires. ."
But the sherlffs cannot legally be
candidates until after the election.
Morgan pointed out. So Wiscou.
son sheriffs will not this fall run

Suffocated by Gas.

Joel Strang, an employee Of the
city of Ironwood water depart
ment, was suffocated by gas in
manhole on Silver street on the
Ironwood side of the bridge Satur-
day afternoon The use Of
pulmotor failed to revive the man.
Strang entered the manhole early
in the afternoon, ostensiblv to work
around or take readings from the
meter through which passes the
water from Ironwood to Hurley.
1t is believed that gas in the man
hole Immediately had its effect on
Strang and he was rendered I'm
conscious. How long he had been
in the hole is not known definitely,
but his predicament was discovered
when an employee of the gas de-
partment looked down in the hole
and saw Strang lying there, Men
engaged in unloading snow taken
from Silver street in Hurley into
the river assisted in pulling Strang
from the hole. The pulnotor from
the IrOnwood fire hall was dis
patched to the scene and was used
for almost an hour in the efforts to
revive the man, but of no avail,
the gas having got in its deadly
effect and Strang never regained
consciousness.
Strang was an old employe of
the city and lived i'll Ironwood for
many years. He was As years old
and leaves the widow aud seven

Lent begins and extends until
Easter, which this year falls on
April 10.
The fixing OF the date of Easter
puzzles many persons, but it is
really very easily done. The first
Sunday that follows the first full
moon after March 21 is Easter.
If the first full moon after March
81 falls on Sunday, however, then
the following Sunday is Easter.
Easter never comes earlier than
March % and never later than
April IS. In 1923, Easter Sunday
will fall on April I, which is also
noted for being "All Fools Day. "
These are the perfect days for check

GOGEBIC RANGE TOWNS
ISOLATED BY STORM
Most Severe Storm of the Season
RACES for Two Days and Nights.
All Trains Annuled.

The most severe storm OF the
season ragged over this section
Wednesday and Thursday and
isolated the Gogebic range towns
from the rest of the. world, all
passenger, mail and freight service
being at a standstill. Communica
ton with the outside world by
telephone and telegraph was limit
ed.
A heavy fall of snow, driven by
a northeast wind, prevailed all day
Wednesday and in the evening the
velocity of the wind increased. A
regular old time blizzard ragged all
Wednesday night and up until late
in the afternoon Thursday, when
the storm abated.
The storm was quite general
over the northwest, covering
wide territory. Reports from some
places were that it was even more
severe than on the Gogebic range.
From Ashland came the report
that it was the worst for many
years. At Duluth and Superior
the storm ragged as early as Tues
day morning.
A general tieup of rail service
resulted, the heavy snow being
piled into huge drifts by the strong
wind and preventing movement of
trains. All trains through this
section were annuled. The last
train through here was Wednes-
day morning and that was three
hours late. The Wednesday after
noon train from Chicago to Ash
land was held up at Amigo. Trains
for the south did not leave Ash
land at all This condition pre-
vailed all day Thursday and even
in the local yards not car was
moved.
Street car traffic was at a stand
still with the exception of short
distance within the city limits of
Ironwood. Street car service west
of Hurley ceased early Wednesday
evening and it will probably be
few days before cars are running
west. Traffic between Hurley and
Ironwood was opened yesterday.
Yesterday morning opened bright
and clear with the sun shining, re-
vealing wildly the results of the
storm. The work of digging out
started in earnest yesterday morn
ing. Flows were put in service in
the railroad yards. assisted by
large crews of snow shovelers.
Shortly after seven O'Clock an
engine pushing plow started for
Ashland.
The first train from the south
to reach Hurley since Wednesday
forenoon pulled in shortly after one
O'Clock yesterday afternoon. This
train left Milwaukee Wednesday
morning and on account of the
storm was tied up at Amigo. Two
engines were used to pull the train
from Amigo here and they both
showed the effects of the storm and
bucking snow drifts. The engines
we're covered with snow and ice.
The train was a small one, two
coaches besides the mail and bagg-
/ age cars.
