CONGRESSMAN PITTENGER
ASKS FIRE PREVENTION

Congressman William A. Pittenger
in an announcement this week, urged
the people to observe "Fire Prevention
Week" the year around. Such pro-
gram, he said, would do much to
lessen the terrific forest fire losses in
Minnesota.
The plea was especially addressed 20
the hunters who come to the north
woods annually in search of game.
He stated that careless thrown away
match, cigar, or cigarette butt, or an
unextinguished camp fire can cause
damage amounting to millions of
dollars.
"Not only is property ruthlessly de-
stroyed but in many instances the
lives of hundreds Of our people have
been in danger" said the Congress-
man. We invite the sportsman. and
the tourist to come to our beautiful
Head of. the Lakes country, and well
come their presence among us.
When they do come We ask cf them
and expect them, to use every Lre-
caution to prevent forest fires through
carelessness."
Concluding his statement, Congress
man Pittenger said. at people will
carry the thought of fire prevention
with them we can do much to cut
down the exorbitant losses which we
have suffered in our district through
forest fires, in recent years"

The Girl Scout Council entertained
on Wednesday evening at Scout head
quarters for the Teachers T1aining
class and the ladies who have been
assisting in the drive the past week.
Mrs. Gust Maxi, Mrs. Rex Larson,
Mrs. Murgel, Mrs. Novak, Mrs. Perish,
have given valuable assistance.
The solicitors have, with very few
exceptions, been received most kindly
and the response has been general
It is noticeable that, in homes where
there are, or have been Scouts, there
was the greatest eagerness to give.
On Wednesday, s132 had been re-
ceived with a few pledges for future
payments. The goal CT $500 is far
away but the council is anxious to
reach it in order that no further soli-
citation will have to be made during
the ensuing year.
If Eveleth can raise $4,000 for its
Boy and Girl Scouts, surely Ely can
readily meet sum one-sixth the size
for its Girl Scouts.
In some cases people have not been
at home and some who would like to
contribute may have been overlooked.

FORMER WINTON RESIDENT
DIES IN ST. PAUL FRIDAY.

Axel r. Anderson, for many years
a resident of Winton and at one time
a member of the Board of Education
of District No. II, died at the Mounds
Park Sanitarium in st. Paul where he
was taken following a stroke. The
funeral was held Monday from his
home and the Jones Mortuary at Still
water, the funeral being in charge Of
the Scottish Rite Masons The Odd
Fellows and the Woodmen also at
tended the funeral in body.
Mr.. Anderson was born in Sweden
in 1864. He came to America and this
state 81 years ago and followed his
trade as boiler maker. For several
years during the incumbency of the
st. Croix Company at Winton and
later when the Hines people had
charge, Mr.. Anderson was machin-
ist at the mill. Since removing from
here to Bayport, he has been employ
ed with the st. Paul Union Depot Co.

Halloween is as yet two weeks

in arms over the window daubing.
Their windows for display purposes
are ruined. Youthful enthusiasm is
hard to curb on Halloween but the
destruction of property should be
stopped. The one night should be
sufficient and the festivities are some
what premature two weeks in advance
You may not believe it but, the worst
offenders are the chaps who do not
know what it is all about. A course in
window washing for some of them
would be about right and thus would
be brought home to them the labor
and effort required to remove soap, oil
and candle grease from cold window.

The interstate Commerce Commits
sion hearing in Duluth week ago on
the leasing CT the Duluth & Iron
Range by the Duluth, MisSabe &
Northern did not produce any of the
pyrothenicS expected and was nothing
more than plain statement of facts
which all seemed to substantiate the
advisability of the lease Senator Geo.
Lommen appeared in opposition to
the lease. His fear that many of the
employees would be without jobs did
not hold after explanations had been
made in cross examination. None of
those whom the senator designated as
being menaced by the lease, viz. the
range towns and Two Harbcrs and
Proctor, appeared at the hearing 1t
seems that the senator had been mis-
informed on several points and while
he was there to protect his constit-
uentS, the constituents were not much
alarmed over the outcome. The ma
jority feel that the lease would be a
fine thing. The Commission express
ed the opinion that the affair would
come to a head before the first Of the
year.

Federal Judge Dawson at Louisville.
Kentucky, in inStructing the grand
jury Monday, told them to also indict
the purchaser as well as the seller OF
liquor. This is contrary to decision
handed down by the circuit court of
appeals. He then quoted the VolStead
Act wherein it says that no person
shall manufacture, sell, purchase,
transport or prescribe any liquor WITH
out first obtaining a permit from the
commission so to do, except that
person may, without permit pur-
chase and use liquor for medicinal
purposes when prescribed by ply
Sician, as herein provided -" And,
that's that. There is some reason in
the judges logic. If there were no
buyers there would be no sellers.
A man who pays the best money of
the best country in the world for the
poorest liquor of any country in the
world, needs medical attention and not
a Jail sentence. Law breakers are as
common as hair on dog. With mil
lions of laws handicapping the ordin-
ary mortal in everything he does from
the time he wakes up in the morning
to the time he wakes up the next
morning, it would seem that there
were acts and inhibitions enough to
govern each and everyone of us. How
ever the national congress and state
legislatures are piling up more laws
and regulations to the number of sew
eral thousand year.
Laws are necessity to curb the
criminal says an authority. However,
criminals are not curbed by laws or
they would not be criminals. The
ordinary mortal is so hedged in by
laws that it is possible to arrest each
and all of us any old time for the in
fraction Of some one or the other OF
the laws as promulated by the several
legislatures We hate to say it, but We
are all out of Jail simply because we
have not been arrested. The Ten Com
mandmentS and the Golden Rule are
plenty law and if we all lived up to
them, the expensive legislatures and
other law making bodies might be
abolished.
