OPEN NEW MOVE ON.
AUTO TAX S[ACKERS|
LOCAL AUTOMOBILE OWNERS
RALLY TO FORCE $4,000 DE-
LINQUENTS TO PAY
LICENSES.
Around Ely and every other cit,

Around Ely and every other city
and town-in all parts of Mime
sofa, a special volunteer police force
is starting out this week to do an
emergency job in record time. 1t
will finish the undertaking when the
last motor vehicle tax Stacker has
paid up taxes and penalties, perhaps
court fine and costs, and with 1928
tags on his machine, is convinced
that auto taxes must be paid.
'The motor vehicle taxes are the
only taxes on cars and trucks and
the only direct taxes for state high
way purposes which greatly benefit
this county,, it was pointed out.
"The man who can afford to run a
car has little excuse now for dodg-
ing the tax which goes for better
roads to reduce his repair, gasoline
and tire bills. Over 100000 Min
nesota owners have paid the tax and
it is not fair that the $4,000 or
$4,000 others sharing benefits equal
ly should longer evade payment"
A state law provides that any citi-
highway without proper tags may
arrest the driver and take him into
court. If desired, cases may be re-
ported to the local director or to
the county attorney or sheriff whose
duty it is to enforce the law.
Charles M. Babcock, state high
way commissioner, suggested the
plan after overhearing a Stacker call
citizen who had paid his tax ga
sucker" and boast that he was "get-
ting by" without paying.
"The plan may not prove popular
with the $4,000 slackers", he said,
but will appeal to more than AGO.
600 citizens who have paid their
car taxes and command their active
assistance"
"Great idea and no reason why
we can't put it over for our own
benefit and in short ORDER" said G.
Roy Hill, secretary-manage of the
Minnesota Automobile association,
pledging the active support of every
automobile club member in the
state. Sour members won't wait
for police stars or special commits
sions but will start out on news
paper notices"
James E. Markham, deputy at
torney general, gave assurance that
local officials notably county attor-
neys and sheriffs, will give prompt
assistance and suggested that any
lack of response on their part be
called to his attention, addressing
him at the state capitol, st. Paul.
The state highway and legal de-
partments have been assisting the
secretary of state to effect registra-
ton of all Minnesota motor vehicles
but it is expected that the plan just
starting over the entire state will
produce better and quicker results.

BOOSTING THE
COUNTY FAIR

With the emphasis upon the point
that, the ST. Louis County Fair
which opens in Hibbing on Sept. l
and continues on September 2 and
3 is not Hibbing fair but is
county fair, dedicated to the entire
Northern Minnesota. Secretary Rich
ard Giffin today made arrangements
for the first advertising car, known
as Car No. to start out to "cover
the entire range"
The secretary is of the opinion
that the advertising program must
wait until this time, because of the
many other attractions on the
range. AS a result he babe his
time but now he is ready to spend
every effort to make the county
fair what it always has been, the
biggest and best county fair in the
entire state.
Cattle displays at the county fair
this year will surpass any other
season. BREEDERS of high class stock
will all exhibit at the exposition.
The vegetable exhibits will also sur
pass the fondest expectations, the
oCSIS GcaIy says.
The secretary has arranged a fine
program of entertainment, in fact
some of the best outdoor spectacles
ever shown here will be on the pro-
gram.
If the fair fans desire it, the sec
rotary will attempt the staging of a
night program. This will be GER
tainty on the new fair grounds but
under the present arrangements it
cannot be worked out successfully.
The complete list of attractions
will be announced within a few
days.
The fair this year will be COM
plete with many new exhibits and
attractions, offering the general pub
lie something entirely new from any
previous season.

K. c. BAND NOW
HAS 5 ACTIVE
MEMBERS
New Organization to Make
First Public Appearance
Washington's Birthday.

Music is the only universal Ian
guage which may be understood by
the people of all nations. There is
no limitation of it's possibilities for
expressing human ideas and emo
tons. Music is a language which
begins where the spoken words
leave off, and each individual may
interpret it's message from his own
experience; he does not need an in
terpreter to help him. This is true
of all music, but especially so of
band music.
Such ideals are being carried out
by the knights of Columbus Band,
which meets at II o'clock every
Sunday morning in the headquar-
ters. The band was founded by
Francis A Mccain, past grand
knight Of Carroll Council Knights
of Columbus and editor of the
knight Letter, the official organ of
the council.
Music has become a vital part
in the life of any community. It
is relaxation and inspiration
which may not he found in any
other way. In Knights of Columbus
circles the band is fulfilling n much
needed want. 1t has become
great possession and is to be sup.
ported by the local councils. For
the present, however. a few indi-
viduals are generally responsible for
it's maintenance. These members
are public benefactors. for they are
supporting a great civic necessity.
/ They will carry on this work until
the value of such an organization
is realized as a civic need.
On Washington Birthday at Cen
trail High School, the Fourth De-
gree of the knights of Columbus,
under the direction of Charles w,
Darr, will hold a patriotic celebra-
ton in honor of the Father of His
Country" Special plans are being
completed for the celebrat ton and
the knights Of Columbus Band has
been placed on the program. This
will be the first opportunity the
band has had to appear before the
public. 1t is hoped in the near
future that the band will appear
for the local public in concert.
The hand has been organized just
four months and now numbers
forty five active playing members.
Glasses are being held for begin
ners and it is expected before long
the number of members will adj
vance to sixty or seventy. Karl e
Schaefer is instructor for the X. of
c. Band.

Carl Engel Extols
Jazz AS Typical
u. S. Music

In "Jazz: A Musical Discus
sion," Carl Engel, while he is
careful to proclaim his anti
pathy for much of the kettle
humping which passes for jazz,
is equally articulate in announc-
ing his zestful appreciation of
and hope for the unsteady con-
ceived and incomparably exc
cuted "good" jazz. He feels,
says the New York Times, that
it is unfair to confuse the
twisty dances which in many
places accompany jazz music
with the music itself.
Calling attention to the fact
that the waltz, which swept
Paris madly off its feet and
was condemned, and the sa-
rabande, which, begun in Moor
ish seraglios, was looked upon
with horror. both eventually Gre
ated new forms for lastingly
beautiful music. Mr.. Engel init
mates that Jazz will set the key
for a new rich music that will
be peculiarly American.
