"MANSLAUGHTER"
OPENS AT INDIANA

'Nanslaughter," with CIaudette
Colbert and Fredric March in the
leading roles, opens at the Indiana
today.
Miss Colbert plays the role of a
wealthy, pampered daughter Of the
idle rich to whom all serious pur-
suits in life are amusing.
Headstrong, capricious, without
consideration for the feelings Of
others, she is, nevertheless, a de-
lightful and charming person.
When she first meets Freric
March, who impersonates a young,
courageous and idealistic district at
torney, she is both amused and at
tracted. Disagreeing on almost
every opinion on life and duty, they
fall in love.
Their romance is blasted short
time later when it becomes neces-
sary for the man to prosecute his
sweetheart because she has caused
the death of motorcycle policeman
with her reckless driving. This
brings about the unusual climax.
Richard Tucker, Natalie Moor
head and Stanley Fields are prorni-
nent in the supporting cast. George
Abbott, Broadway notable, directed.
incidentally, the story once was
made as silent picture by Cecil B.
De Mile years ago with Thomas
Meighan and Leatrice Joy in the
chief roles.

GOOD ROADS ADD TO
NEW YEARS. JOYS

Happy New Year is the popular
greeting everywhere. Here's hoping
that your happiness will not be con-
fined to January 1, but will continue
throughout the whole year.
Good roads will contribute to your
happiness, says highway bulletin,
and the joy of travelling over paved
or graveled and well maintained high
ways winter and summer should make
the payment of your motor vehicle
tax pleasure For the license which
you buy gives you the privilege OF
travelling not only on all Of the streets
and highways of Minnesota, but In
other states as well. And the money
you pay in license is small fraction
of what it would cost you to run your
car over the roads you had before 1921.
The money only goes on the trunk
highways and not on any local road,
you may say! But the bulletin points
out that since the trunk highway plan
was adopted, the counties and town.
ships, relieved of maintaining the
through routes, have been able to de-
vote all their road funds to secondary
roads. Twice as many miles OF feeder
roads have been graveled and i'm
proved in the last nine years as in the
whole history of the state.
Furthermore, the bulletin points out,
your license tax is in lieu OF the per-
sonal property tax. In thirty-five
other states car owners pay a personal
property tax in addition to the license
tax, and in many OF them the license

LAKES BOOKLET
BEING PREPARED

More complete than any previous
issue will be the new Minnesota Book
which will soon be ready for the
printer and which is published by the
Ten Thousand Lakes Greater Mime
sofa Association.
The new booklet will contain write
ups of every town in Minnesota with
500 or more population. The write
ups will have information concerning
the industries of each town, agricul-
tural information such as character Of
soils, principal crops raised, markets
afforded, land prices and other data
sought by prospective farmers and cit
izens. The book will also list ap-
proximately 1000 resorts, giving their
rates and noting their attractions
Town hotels will be listed and their
rates given. Historical facts of sig
nificance will also be recorded in con-
nection with each community.
Questionnaires were sent out 20
every town of 500 or more population
several weeks ago. To those which
did not answer another questionnaire
was sent last week and it is the hope
of officers of the association that towns
which have not filled out the previous

eSSary information is provided at once
that they may have proper repres-
entation in the book. The new pub
lication is intended to give complete
and thorough information concerning
the state and no charge is made for
any writeup which appears in it.
The Minnesota Book is perhaps the
most complete information booklet
published in the state Il carries def
mite i, formation for the tourist or

out the nation. Tt is used by rail-
roads, automobile associations and

MRS. FLEK DIES
FROM INJURIES

Mrs. Joseph Flick died at the Ship
man Hospital early Sunday morning
from the effects of car accident a
few miles this side of Soudan Satur-
day at about o'clock The accident
was caused by the collision of car
driven by Mr.. Larson with the south
bound bus leaving here at lis,
Mrs. Fleck was the only passenger
injured notwithstanding the fact that
the bus was fairly well filled It
seems that when rounding a curve
a few miles from McComber on the
down trip the bus driver noticed a car
coming his way just at the curve. He
ran to his side of the road and even
into the ditch where the bus came to
standstill against a rock. The on
coming car could not negotiate the
curve on it's side of the road and hit
the bus Just behind the front wheels.
Mrs. Fleck saw the car coming and
the impending crash from where she
was seated in the forward end of the
bus. She got to her feet and was in
the act of trying to open the door to
get out when the sudden stop and i'm
pact of the car hitting the bus pre-
cipitated her through the window
She was badly cut about the head and
body in the exit through the broken
window and fell to the ground ouG-
side, her head hitting a rock, fractur-
ing her skull. She also had her hand
twisted off just above the wrist, an
unaccountable injury but supposed to
have happened when she went through
the window and before hitting the
ground.i
Emil ;BuSkala, who was passing just
after the accident, brought Mrs. F1eK
to the ;Shipman Hospital in this city
She never regained consciousness anc
died on Sunday morning. Accom-
panied by her daughter, who had
visited her mother here for week, the
unfortunate woman was on her way
to Duluth for return visit. The
daughter returned with the car that
brought her mother to Ely.
The Larson car from Eveleth to this
city contained Mr.. and Mrs. Larson
and child coming for a visit with rel
atives. While the car was badly dam
aged none of the occupants were in
jured. Outside of Mrs. Flick, none in
the bus were injured. Lester Pernu,
the driver of the bus has been with
the Ncrthland Company for the past
nine years and is considered one OF
the best drivers in the service with
never an accident against him. All OF
his passengers have the highest praise
for his efficiency.
The funeral of Mrs. Flick took place
Monday from the Catholic church,
Rev. Mihelcic officiating. She is sur
vived by her husband and six children.
The sorrowing relatives have the sym
pathy of the community in their loss
of fond wife and mother.

TUBERCULAR VETERANS ACT
SPECIAL CARE OF PITTENGER

Commenting on the various measures
contemplated to extend the presump-
tive clause for tuberculars in the Vet
Grams Act, Congressman William A.
Pittenger, recently stated that he was
heartily in accord with the movement.
He added, however, that there was
some question at this time as to what
time limit should be set in the matter
in order to grant World War Veterans
who have contracted tuberculosis,
since their discharge, the greatest
amount of good.
The present bill sets the time limit
on tubercular cases at January 1st,
1925. This has been proven made
quate inaSmuch as there are thousands
of veterans who have contracted the
malady since that time In most cases
the direct cause was traced to the ef-
fects of the war. Under existing reg
ulationS these veterans are not en-
titled to government compensation.
1t is understood that Congressman
Pittenger will make thorough study
Of the problem and will probably con-
fer with Veteran Bureau officials to
determine the time limit that should
be set in this instance. He stated
emphatically that he was in sympathy
with the movement and would give it
his support The sole question in the
CongreSsman's mind being the date
which would take in all of these tub
CIRCULAR cases.

GET CORRECT TAGS
FOR YOUR OLD BUS

When buying your new 1880 auto
licenses, see that you get the right
kind of plates, a Highway bulletin
suggests The motor vehicle regis
trar can give you the right kind of
plates only if you give full and correct
information in your application. Fail
ure to do this may cause you trouble
and expense later.
A truck is defined by law as "Any
motor vehicle designed OR USED
principally for carrying things other
than passengers, and includes motor
vehicle to which has been added a
cabinet oox, platform, rack or other
equipment for the purpose of carrying
merchandise other than the personai
effects of the passenger"
Convertible cars with a removable
or collapsible truck body, should have
truck licenses. Cars which have been
made over into trucks should have a
truck license, even if they had pas
senger licenses in 1929. In some case,
the passenger car and truck tax are
the same, in some cases the truck tax
is slightly higher.
"T' licenses may be used only on
trucks used for hauling farm products
from the place of production to the
place of shipment, sale or consumption.
A farmer who owns "T0' truck may
haul supplies needed on his farm, on
the return trip. Draymen hauling for
hire use "T' trucks in hauling farm
products from farm to market, but
cannot haul return loads, or haul mer-
chandise anywhere. "T' trucks can
