In 1925, after IA weeks trip
there arrived in New York a sloop
ship 55 feet long from Norway with
100 people. These people were
Quakers who decided to seek new
home after being prosecuted in their
native land. This event was cele-
brated in the Twin Cities early in
the week. Gradually others follow
ed them. In 1850 there were seven
Norwegians in Minnesota according
to the census of that year. TODAY
a quarter of the population of the
state are Norwegians or of Nor
wegian descent. DR.. o. M. Norlie
of Luther College, an authority
says there are $4,000 people of
Norwegian blood in this state.

There is a good deal of specula-
ton as to the course of the iron
ore business during the balance Of
the year. 1t is believed by those
who have watched the course of
events for some years past that
there will be an important and de-
cisive change for the better about
July /. That date in past years has
often been the changing point for
better or for worse. If there was
uncertainty prior to July 1, and it
continued after thai it would be a
poor season. But if there was to
be improvement during the year,
July l would be the date when it
would be noted, and good times for
the iron and steel industry for at
least year could be confidently
counted on.-Skilling's Mining Re-
view.

The tourist crop looks good for
the present season. 1t is estimated
that over million will visit Min
nesota this year. Let them come.
We have the scenery, the lakes, the
fish, the forests and the room to
play around in. We extend them a
hospitable welcome to "The Play
ground of a Nation" While some
seem to think that the fish are in
danger of extinction on account of
the large number of tourists, we will
state MAT the lakes are teeming
with the finest kind of food and
game fish. Catch no more than you
can eat and there will be fish for
all and forever.

Judge Martin Hughes in District
Court at Hibbing Saturday sentenced
Neilo Gilhardi, the 21-year old CHS

tiary for an indeterminate term of
from z to 80 years. Young Gil
hardi plead guilty to the charge of
shooting and killing his father with
a shotgun in the basement of their
home. on April 81. After the kill
ing he dragged the body into the
coal bin and lail the gun over the
remains in order to create the i'm
preston of suicide. 1t is the opin-
ion that robbery was the motive for
the crime.

The local merchant is an Ely man
who has bull up his business among
Ely people. He pays taxes for the
upbuilding of the city; weeps with
you when you are sad and laughs
with you when you are glad. He is
your /. neighbor and friend. When
you need credit you go to him.
Why not also see him when you
have cash to spend? Some time

worthy object, try and get nickel
or two out of the Chicago mail

AS advice to campers some of the
papers are carrying the admonition
Don't drink water from streams or
lakes" They ask the camper TO
pack his water in canteen. This
may be o. X. in some places but up
in this real camping country the
lakes and streams are evidently fit
to drink. Were they not, it is safe
to say that the larger part of the
people would be dead ones as it is
a common practice when thirsty to
dip cup or hatful of water from
lakes or streams. AS no one ever
dies here with the exception of the
very old, and the undertakes who
starve to death for the lack of bust
ness, the water is simply not of the
deadly kind.

Every week prominent citizens re-
ceive merchandise through the mail
which was never ordered with the
request to either send the money OF
return the merchandise. This is an
insidious practice and should be
stopped on a fraud order by the
postal department. In too many
cases the matter is overlooked by
the recipient until it is too late and
then he is compelled to pay for the
goods or spend his money for re-
turn postage

thing is done, it is too late. Sew

districts is now 20, and 25 miles in

also states that any local speed or

The fact that the University OF
Minnesota persisted in staging Z
track meet on Memorial Day ha:
aroused the ire of Legionaire:
throughout the state, and seevra
other organizations have joined the
Legion in asserting that cit never
can happen again"
The Legion officers declare that
inasmuch as Memorial Day is 6
"holy day., dedicated to the mem.
DRY of dead service men, and not g
holiday, it no occasion for fest.
ivity, which is more suited to July
a, or Armistice Day.
The University authorities argued
that no dissertation of the day was
intended, but that the meet would
demonstrate the fitness of the ath.
letes competing to answer the call OF
their country in time of crisis. Ser
vices were held at the University
Memorial Stadium in connection
with the meet.
"This method of CLOSING over
the event does not change its
nature, Department officers of the
Legion contend. "a field meet is
an occasion when the athletes conf
pete to win honors, and the special
ors go there to witness the contests,
not as a mark of respect to the
dead. Such a festive occasion is
out of order on Memorial Day"
The staging of the meet inspired
Stafford King, Department Adjutant,
to write a nOau entitled EtT'n Dead
and I'm Dust. 1t follows:
