IN SERIOUS CONDITION

Lawrence Marceoux left Saturday
morning for the home of his parents
at Wisconsin Rapids in response to a
message announcing the fatal injuries
of his brother Roy in an automobile
and railroad crossing accident at
Marshfield Wednesday night. No hope
was held out or recovery by the hospi-
tai at Marshfield where he was taken
for treatment. The young man was
well known in Eagle River having
spent the summer here with his broth
er who had been in charge of the
building operations of the new high
school for the past year coming from
Three Lakes after the high school
built there was completed by the firm
he is foreman for AS his work here
would have been completed and turn
ed over to the school board next week
he will not return, Mrs Marceoux at
present being on visit at her home
in Kentucky.

Ford Plans Big Increase
At Iron Mountain, Mich.
MICHIGAN CITY IN LINE FOR A
TREMENDOUS DEVELOPMENT
WHEN PLANS MATURE

The Ford company has just announc
ed that the present body plant at
Iron Mountain will be increased 100
per cent next year. 1t now consists
of three units, which are not more
than SO per cent in production. Three
additional units will be erected The
plant will then, it is expected, meet
practically all the requirements Of
the Ford company for wood parts.
What the plant will mean for Iron
Mountain is indicated by the fact that
each of the six units will require.
1000 operatives. In addition, there
will be the force required for the saw
mills and the chemical plant, which
means that the company will have a
pay of approximately 5000 men when
the construction now in hand and
officially announced as planned for
next year has been completed.
Furthermore, it is regarded as as
sured that the Ford development will
be carried much further than has
yet been outlined. A furnace is a
logical sequence to the completion of
the chemical plant The latter will
have a produce of charcoal the com
pany will want to make use Of. Pro
duction of charcoal iron furnishes
the way. And when the furnace is
producing charcoal iron it is regard
ed as probable, and in line with Ford
company policy, that is will be manu-
featured, on the heat, right in Iron
Mountain. In short, it is difficult to
place the exact limit of the ramifi
cations of this Iron Mountain indus
try.
At the moment the only thing said
to be limiting the growth of the city
and the new village of Kingsford is
the scarcity of housing accommoda-
tions. Hundreds of Ford company EN-
ployes live in other places because
they are unable to find houses close
to their work. The population of the
city and village will grow rapidly
over several years at a rate determin
ed by the speed with which housing
facilities can be provided.
