Cedar Rapids Republican: The
writer has just returned from a
2,000-mile tour of Minnesota, which
has everything from half million
cities to dense impenetrable forests.
He has driven paved roads stretch

the big cities.
He has traversed graveled roads
that run through mile after mile of
thick timberland with towns rs
miles apart.
He has seen men out dragging
these graveled roads that in Iowa
would be considered perfect, but in
Minnesota deemed ready for drag

He has watched gangs of men
actually manicure the roads with
hand rakes, in order to be sure to
get out all the stones over pebble
size.
He has been startled, surprised

TWO HARBORS IS
EASY FOR ELY.
TOUCHDOWNS BY DAHL IN
FIRST AND SECOND PERIODS
CLINCHES ELY VICTORY.
(By Arnold Anderson. }

Il
With all the ''beefy" Two Hair
bors football material having gradu
ated, the Two Harbors eleven of thi.
season proved easy for the line,
charging Ely men and they went
down to an inglorious 13 to O defeat
on their own football field Saturday
+ From the very start the green
Two Harbors players "muddled the
signals and fumbled the ball. Short
end runs and off-tackle plays feat
ured the Two Harbors attack, but
as these tyr of play were "meat'
to j. GERM and Clough, the Ely
tackles, the Two Harbors backs were
thrown for repeated losses.
Ely kicked off, and on the first
play the Two Harbors back was
thrown for loss, Immediately the
Two Harbors men got the signals
mixed and after two vain attempts
at the line, Two Harbors punted.
Ely took the ball in midfield and be-
gan a march down the field that
terminated in a touchdown-D Dahl
going over for the six points.
In the second period Colombo,
Dahl and Banovetz began tearing
off some three, four and five yard
gains which together with two end
runs by Heikkila put the ball ten
yards from the goal line. Four sue
cessive plunges placed the ball over
the line. Ely kicked goal.
Ely played defensive football our
ing the second half and Two Har-
bors never seriously threatened the
Ely goal during the two final periods.
A Two Harbors pass gave them the
ball on Ely's twenty-yard line in
the final stanza, but Ely held and
Colombo punted out of danger.
Near the end of the game Two
Harbors secured possession of the
ball near midfeld and attempted an
advance, but three successive five
yard losses put the ball back fifteen
yards and they were forced to kick.
Ely retained possession of the ball
until the end of the game.
Ely played its best football of
the season against Two Harbo s
The line proved a stonewall while
the backfeld was unstoppable.
Colombo had decided edge in the
punting; for his kicks kept the ball
in Two Harbors territory continu-
ally.
The Ely lineup was as follows:
LIE, Luhtanen; LIT, j. Gerzin;
c., Anderson; R.G., Skala; RT.,
Clough; RE-, Indy; OBJ. Heikkila;
LIB, Dahl; RIB, Banovetz md
F.B. Colomso.

REV. PARISH TRANSFERRED
TO OLIVIA FOR NEXT YEAR

1t is with regret that we are forced
to announce that the Conference at
Crookston last week transferred Rev.
John L. Parish from the passionate
of the M. E. church in this city to
a charge at Olivia, Minnesota. What
is Ely's loss in the removal of Rev.
Parish will be Olivia's gain. During
his pastorate here Of the past two
years, himself and family have made
many friends who join in wishing
them success wherever they locate.
He has been an interchangeable
worker in Gods work here and he
will be missed.
Rev. B. E. Williams, at one time
a pastor in this city and well known
here, has been named in charge of
the church here and at Soudon. Rev.
Williams was transferred to Ely from
Nashwauk where he has been for sew
eral years.

DAMAGE BY VANDALS
COSTLY TO PUBLIC

Destruction to trunk highway
signs by vandals is costing the state
between ten and fifteen thousand
dollars a year, according to bull
letin from the State Highway de-
partment. The annual expenditure
for replacement of highway signs is
about $4,000 and half of this is
due to wanton destruction. The
other half is due to accidents and
action of the elements.
State highway signs are not the
only ones that suffer. Several

MUST HONOR PARENTS

Speaking for the first time to
the 5000 freshmen who have just
entered the University of Mime
sofa, President L. d. Coffman de-
livered an allegory drawn from the
sacrifices many parents make to
send their sons and daughters to
college. He spoke at the welcom-
ing convocation to new students.
"God forbid that your experiences
here may, make you ashamed of
your parents, even if they be poor
or .untutored," he said. ssYou have

county highway engineers have re-
Gently issued appeals and warnings
against the practice. The Grand
Rapids Herald-Review, quoting a
warning issued by the engineer of
Itasca county, makes this comment:
Heavy penalties attach to this
misdemeanor, if the person using a
gun for such a purpose is caught.
Either a stiff fine or a Jail sentence
not to exceed go days, may be i'm
posed for the first offense, and
greater punishment for a second
offense. 1t is thought by the high
way officials that a warning is all
that is needed, as those guilty can
scarcely understand the gravity of
their offense."
The same penalty applies in case
of damage done to guard rails,
bridges, culverts, snow fences, road
machinery or to the road surface.
A federal law provides penalties for
damage to mail boxes.

NEW POSTOFFICE NOW
THE CENTER OF ATTRACTION

Postmaster Schweiger and his
assistants moved into the new build
ing last Friday and since that time
have been kept on the jump men,
orizing the box numbers and trying
to get the incoming mail into the
boxes. AS the larger part of those
receiving mail will have new box
numbers this will be some task for
the fnrces. AS consequence, mail
has been considerably delayed the
past week but it is expected that by
next week all~will be running along
smoothly. The office is equipped
with all modern appliances for the
prompt handling of the mails. A
cancelling machine will be installed
upon it's arrival and the old method
of hand stamping done away with.
