ONE BUCK LAW
TO Be DISCUSSED.
NEXT MEETING OF IZAAK WAL
TON LEAGUE TO TAKE UP
PROPOSED LAW.

The Ely Chapter of the Izaak
Walton League will hold it's next
regular session at the Community
Center, April 9Th at 500 o'clock.
This meeting promises to be inter-
esting as it is the occasion for an
important debate. The question to
be considered is the Zone Buck
Law" ]. A. Rothman and A. L.
Richey are prepared to take the
affirmative while M. w. Peterson
and VIM. Hanson will argue against
it. Both sides have a wealth of
material to offer in addition to very
definite personal opinions on the
subject and from all indications, it
should be more than interesting.
1t is probable that the question
will come up again this year in the
legislature and therefore those who
are interested in whether or not the
buck law should be enacted can at
this time hear both sides of the
question.
Other matters of Importance will
also be taken up at this time. A
committee on fish propagation will
be appointed to take care of the re-
QUESTIONS to be secured, from the
state hatcheriea The question of
increased protection during the bea-
yer trapping season will also be
considered.
Any one interested in problems
confronting the Ely chapter are
urged to attend.

GET OUT AUTO TAGS
TO ESCAPE ARREST

Minnesota motor vehicle tax
slackers after April l face arrest
and fines for failure to display 1926
license plates front and rear, in adj
dition to the penalties for delin-
quents which continue to run up.
Mike Holm, secretary of state and
registrar of motor vehicles, recently
made statement to the foregoing
effect. 1t is the duty of sheriffs
and police officers in all parts of
Minnesota to promptly arrest driv-
ers of cars and trucks without the
1926 plates, all in justice to the
larger numbers who have made an
nual payments to the state good
roads fund.
Penalties for delinquents which
were SIS for the first 20 days after
Feb. Is are now increasing at the
rate of So month, under the state
law.
An average of slightly less than
SIS on all classes of autos and
trucks or nearly So less than last
year is being collected Under the new
1926 rates. The new minimum is
SO instead of SIP and the percent
age rate is "a per cent of factory
list prices, less 10 per cent year
for depreciation. The rates are
higher on some classes of trucks and
lower on others.

large audience Friday. The scene
of the play is Halcyon House, bear
ing the fitting sign Tranquility" /,
in the Catskill Mountains.
James father had left curious
will on his death, in which he stated
that unless Jane married Benjamin
Moore by six o'clock Of that certain
day in August, all his money would
go to an asylum or some other such
institution. In that case neither Jane,
nor Willie Winkler, her uncle, would
receive the $4,000 which would be
theirs if Jane complied with the re-
quirements of the will.
Jane, however, was in love with
Bobbie Baxter, which. threatened TO
deprive all three of a goodly sum of
money. Willie Winkler, determined
to get his share, takes them all TO
Halcyon House, the house of 'Tra l.
quillity", and arranges to have Ben
janin Moore arrive to wed Jane.
The plan did not work out as ex-
pected-there were complications,
misunderstanding and quarrels.
In the end, Jane managed to get

MUSIC MEMORY CONTEST
FRANZ JOSEPH HAYDN
1732-18O9)
Menuetto Allegro Molto-(3rd Move
ment from "The Surpri
Symphony"

Papa" Haydn, as this musician
was affectionately called, had the
most human personality of all the
great musicians which is reflected in
all his music. Most of his works
are based on the folk-songs of
Austria, but these gain a new
beauty through his skillful handling.
His unity and precision of form are
so conspicuous as to be almost ex-
travagant today. He is exceedingly
humorous in all music, and nothing
typifies this better than his "Sur-
prise Symphony"
The story of this symphony is a
delightful one. Haydn had noticed
lack of interest in his music for
some time. He decided to play a
joke on his listeners. His new SYM
phony composed in honor of his
patron, Prince Esterhazy,) began in
the usual light manner, with many
runs and brilliant contrapuntal parts.
The noble company settled down
more comfortably, one or two
snored, while the general atmosphere
was enough to ruffle any directors
temper. But this state of affairs
did not last long. Into it, there
crashed a most terrible chord, in
which every instrument in the or.
chestra did it's best to drown til
neighbor. The listless auditors awoke
in great confusion. Never agar
did they try to sleep during Haydn.
music! Because of the surprise hi
gave them, Haydn called it the "Sur
prise Symphony"

SISTERS ENTERTAIN
BUSINESS GIRLS CLUB.

The Business Girls Club met in
regular session at six o'clock on last
Friday evening in the Community
Center. Most of the members were
present to enjoy the very appetizing
supper and the program arranged
for the meeting.
Our committees are improving
each time in the preparation of a
supper for thirty girls at a cost
which must not exceed twenty live
cents for each member. These sup
pers are very nourishing and inter-
esting because we wonder how they
can at that cost, vary the menus
and continue to satisfy the hungry
girls that assemble once every week.
The supper committee included
Tome Ahola, Yordes Carlson, and
Alma Turula, and the dessert COM
mittee was Irene Lampi and Hulda
Mattila.
The Club enjoyed very much the
program furnished by the two, sis
tiers, Iris and Genevieve Hillman,
who have recently made Ely their
home, and who received first and
second places in the last declama-
tory contest given on the range.
Miss Iris read "The Alien. a

10000, 900 MOTORS
NOW USED IN U. S.

More than 20,0OO,0 900 n0tor veh-
icles were in use on the highways
of the listed States in 1925, says

the Bureau of Public Roads of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture. The total registration was
1884, SAT, and there were in addi-
ton 96,929 State and Federal gov
ernment-owned vehicles not includ-
ed in this figure
The increase in registrations dur
ing the year amounted to 2,360,670
or 1874 per cent. Minnesota's in
crease was about IL per cent.
Florida reported 46.8 per cent while
Utah, Mississippi, Alabama, Arkan-
sas, North Dakota and Texas all re-
ported increases of more than 20
per cent.
Ten states reported larger num-
bers of registrations than Minnesota
with 569,010, yet fourteen states
have larger mileages of concrete
highway paving according to the
bureau figures, Minnesota being
both below the average in total mile
age and in 1925 extensions.
New York leads in total registra-
tions with 1,625,583 followed by
California, Ohio, Pennsylvania and
Illinois in the order named, all with
registrations of over a million.
There is now one motor vehicle
for each 5.8 persons in the United
States. Minnesota has about per-
sons to each motor vehicle, while
California has only 20, Iowa 3.6,
Nevada 81 and Kansas and Oregon

Before an audience which filled
the Washington Auditorium, the
graduates of the Ely Evening Schools
Americanization classes presented
one of the best programs on Tues

The program was complete in every

be present. However, Superintend-

very acceptably and made the adj
dress of the evening.

EGGS A REAL FOOD
ON ANY DAY IN YEAR.

Eggs contain protein which builds
muscles, fat that gives heat and
energy, vitamins A and B so essen
tial to growth and development, and
minerals which are necessary to the
body, say students of nutrition at
University Farm. Eggs should,
therefore, be eaten not only on May
1, National Egg Day, but on every
day. Even one egg (no harm in
two or three) and one serving of
meat in a single days diet will pro-
vide protein to build tissues and re-
pair waste.

Ply. Haydn is at his best and dis
plays his most fascinating delights
for our benefit. A piquant touch
is shown where the wood-winds drop
a little run into the slight pause pre-
ceeding it, like the trill of a bird.
The bass tuba answers drolly, very
much as tho it were hoarse old
bull-frog across the marsh. In the
passage that follows, the flutes and
clarinets have a short duet which
adds AN elfin touch to the music.
The whole first section is repeated
again to make the complete move
