All CLUBS DOING
WONDERFUL WORK

Who said the girls are not very
active? The following events will
prove to you they are: Friday
morning the sewing clubs, under the
direction of Miss Miller and Miss
Smith, went to Aurora to compete
with the other range town. Ann
Merhar and Grace Clinic received
first place; Mary Lenich and Allie
Kukko were given second place for
home furnishing. One of the girls
will be given a free trip to the state
fair.
Elvira Turula and Vienna Somero
took third place for garment max
ing. Although the girls were not
able to fulfill the requirements, they
did their best. Elvira Turula re-
ceived an extra honor for her wool
en- dress.
This is not all the girls can do.
Another group went to Biwabik Sat
urday morning. After hard labor
and patient waiting, the judges an
nounced that Jennie Beuk, in Class
A, received third place for bread
making. Mildred Carlson from the
eighth grade, in Class-Intermediate,
received first place which means
that she will be given a free. trip to
the state fair. The bread making
clubs are under the direction of
Miss Uehren and Miss Thompson.
Next year, no doubt, Ely will
have the same clubs. Come in, girls,
and get into them. They are of
great help to you and everyone else.

7 What to do with the accumulated
dust and dirt is one of the problems.
Where bitches were made simply to
get dirt for grading, the drifted
dust will be allowed to stay, but
the bitches needed for highway
drainage will be opened as soon as
possible. The drifted dirt is light,
fine fertile top soil, and in most
cases the farmers are glad to have
it spread back on the fields. In
many cases, however, this cannot be
done without damage to growing
crops.
While working on the dust storm
problem, the, maintenance division
has not forgotten that in a few
months, snow storms are likely to
fill the air. Contracts were award
ed this week for 100000 feet of
wooden picket snow fence and TO-
900 posts, for fall delivery. This
added to 100000 feet of snow
fence owned by the State depart
ment, will give 284 miles of protec-
ton against next winters drifts.
Commissioner C. M. Babcock feels
that with the increased winter traf-
fc, which is now from % to so
per cent Of the summer traffic, the
department is warranted in making

DUST STORMS
DAMAGE ROADS.

Dust storms which have covered
the western half of the state at IN
tervals during the last three weeks
have created new problem for the
maintenance division of the Mime
sofa Highway department.. The
storms have affected almost every
county from the Canadian border
to the Iowa line. They have dam
aged grain fields. impeded traffic
and caused general inconvenience.
More than $50 miles Of bitches
along the trunk highways have been
filled level with the ground. Judicial
and county bitches have also been
filled. In the latter case there is no
way of opening the bitches except
by the usual legal procedure, which
requires petitions, hearings and as
sessment of benefits. Clearing the
trunk highway bitches will require
considerable work and expense, but
whether. done by regular patrolmen
or by special crews, it can be done

Decorative CLIQUE

; ornamental border design in con-
: trasting shade Most modernistic
in effect are the gloves with long
pointed scailops in the cuffs. They
are perhaps snartest in black and
white. The glove is white stitched
in black: the border scallops in
alternating black and white have
the appearance of juxtaposed geo.
metric figures.
In cut-out patterns there are
more conventional designs, the
charm OF which depends upon the
tasteful color combination. The
white glove is often bordered in
deep green and through the cut
out patterns is revealed either
white or a lighter tone in green.
Some gold cuffs have knotted
loops of gold thread as a deco
ratiye edge: gray and beige
gloves show elaborate embroid-
cries in silver and colored thread,
the designs beginning in the cuff
and flaring irregularly over the
hand.
The smartest sort of glove is in
chevreau or suede with an en-
broidered cuff and comes with a
little handkerchief and tiny purse
that are embroidered to match.
For the woman who motors, a
prominent glove-shop offers brown
kid gloves not with buttons that
pop off easily, but with the new
patent fastening which is seen on
the new handbags. The idea is
a very practical il not a beau
tiful one.
A bracelet-glove is the very
newest fad which one of the
large department stores has in
augurated. 1t comes in gray or
tan chevreau leather, the cuff
being turned back and edged in
by a stone bracelet which is
skillfully attached to the leather.
The bracelet is made Of gilt
metal links with colorful tones
of green, red or blue set in be-
tween. When. one wears this
glove 1t looks as though ones
bracelet had fallen down from the
wrist over the cuff Of the glove.

MYSTERY OF
FISH LIFE

TINE Sail-bearer Is a most re-.
Il fnarkable ocean fish. Its
fins are larger in proportion to
the body than those Of any other
living fishes. 1t lives near the
surface, swimming not vertically
as one would suppose. but OBJ
liquely: that is to say, with the
body inclining to one side.
Whether this position is advan-
tageous to the fish or whether it
is caused by the over-development
of the fins is question yet to
be decided. From tip TO tip
the fins measure about two and
a half feet.
