No marriage licenses have been is
sued by Clerk of Court Stoll since
Thursday of last week. Usually Octo-
Der is one of the leading months for
marriages but not so this year as only
half dozen licenses have been is
sued thus far this month. Mr.. Stoll
says he believes it is due to the low
price of potatoes-it takes ten bushels
of spuds to pay for the license and
twice that many for the preacher not
to say anything about going to house
keeping.

FORMER LOCAL WOMAN WRITES
ON FOREST FIRE PREVENTION

Under the heading "Pertinent !Opin-
ions' in last Sundays st. Paul Pio-
neer-Press appeared an article by
Mrs. H. E. White of Ely, president of
the Eighth District Federation Of
Women's s Clubs, in answer to the
question "What can be done to end
forest fires in Minnesotaa'' The ar
ticle by Mrs. White is interesting to
the people Of Little Falls as the White
family resided here for a number of
years while MI. White was superin-
tendent of the public schools here.
Following is the article:
"There are at least three things that
must be done to prevent destructive
forest fires.
First, there must be more thorough
patroling-preferably by airplane. We
find that~cif the day is hazy the OBJ
servers from the tower can see but a
short distance. We cannot understand
in this part Of the country why the
aviation training could not be trans
ferred during the summer months to
this locality.
Second, there must be more adequate
fire fighting equipment and organiza'
tion. There should be a flying squad
ron of fire fighters maintained during
September and October, that could
be quickly moved from place to place
| There should be fire fighting equipment
in the shape Of hose and pumping ap
paratus that would put out the fires
in the peat bogs and in old rotten
stumps. Along with this equipment
there should be some provision fol
roads such as the Ely-Gunfint- Grand
Marais and Ely-Buyck projects. There
are areas which two and even three
days are taken to reach after fire is
detected. And then only a small force
can be transported and maintained.
Third, severe penalties for, the leav'
ing of fires that have not been thor
oughly quenched and adequate provi
sion for the enforcement of those
penalties.''

KNIGHT OF THE ROAD ADJUDGED
MENTALLY UNBALANCED

Howard Lincoln, who was picked up
here last week on account of his act
ing queerly, was examined in probate
court and adjudged mentally unbal-
anced. He was committed to
the state hospital at Fergus
Falls The examination Of Lin.
coin netted but little information. He
said his parents lived in tHopkinton, N.
H., but he didn't know whether they
were still living. BE had attended COL
lege for four years but didn't know
the name Of the college or where it was
located.
Owing to the fact that Lincoln was
not adjudged insane the state board of
control advised Judge Kemp that the
case automatically went out of its con-
troll. The board suggested returning
the patient to his home state at the
expense of the county, but as this
would involve considerable expense
the man was released to 60 on his
way.
