(by veronica ESSler and Martina
Wiener).
We have now spent nearly two
months at school and we find our
work more interesting and enjoy
able this year. We find it little
hard some times, but we also find
in order to reach the goal we must
put forth our best efforts.
We had a very exciting noon
hour one day chasing mice. After
some time the yelling and scream
ing ceased and the two mice be-
came our victims. After a little
investigation we found they had
enjoyed and shared some of our
drawing paper. We hope we won't
have any more such visitors.
We were all very busy Friday af-
ternoon knitting rugs with our toy
knitters.
We have a Citizenship League
meeting twice a month. Our Of
ficers were elected last Friday:
President-Veronica Essler.
Vice President-Irene Rousslang.
Secretary-Lucile Gregory.
We are all patiently waiting for
our new single seats to arrive. We
hope Miss Thostenson will save
some paper writing our names
down for whispering when we get
single seats.
Ella and Arthur Betow visited
with Mildred and Glen Ritter one
evening.
Rose Essler and Ella Betow are
very proud Of their new Eskimo
readers.
We have been very busy decorat-
ing our school house with pump
kins and turkeys.
Leonard and Ella Betow, Irene
and Anthony Rousslang have had
perfect attendance records since
school began, being neither tardy
nor absent. Veronica and Catherine
Essler have not been absent or
tardy since they started but were
absent the first two weeks due to
whooping cough.
Our spell down last week proved
we all were not such good spoilers
as we thought we were. Veronica
won and Miss Thostenson had to
pick out some hard words for her
to misspell.

And ghosts go round bowling.

They'll scare them into most ter

Watch around the corners keeping.

Black cat with fiery eyes talking;
All ugly things here and there
Ghosts, goblins, and witches, every

QUICK, COOL ACTION.
SAVES Boys LIFE.
KNOWLEDGE OF LIFE SAVING
METHODS LEARNED IN ELY
SCHOOLS SAVES LIFE OF YOUNG
MAN AT THE MINE.

Two Ely youths, by their knowledge
of electricity and artificial respiration,
Wednesday saved the life of partner
while at work. The three boys, Peter
Staijer, Urho Hokkanen and William
Manninen are trammers at the Pioneer
mine. Wednesday as the boys started
work spotting cars under chute and
were about to start to load them,
Staijer stood up on the coupler be-
two cars and raised up to take the
stopper out of the shoot and in doing
so he bumped the trolley wire carrying
$50 volts, with the back of his neck.
Staijer could not free himself of the
wire and as he was grounded and his
two companions sensing his life was in
danger acted quickly. Manninen
grabbed a long bar and touched to the
trolley wire and the track, so that the
wire was shorted and the circuit
breaker thrown out, stopping the juice
Hokkanen Immediately took Staijer,
who had become unconscious and used
artificial respiration on him which he
had learned while a member of the
Ely High School Swimming team a
few years ago. Staijer came to and
was rushed to the hospital where he
was all right in few hours. Staijer
was perfectly well again and reported
to work yesterday. These two boys in
using the knowledge and keeping cool,
saved the life of their partner.

A. j. Fenske, who has a free coal
offer in another place in this paper, in
speaking of the heating development
told of the development of the Heat

study in radiation of heat. He said:
Employing the principle of warm
air circulation for the first time in a
first-foor heating plant, The Estate
Stove Company of Hamilton, Ohio, de-
veloped Estate Heatrola ten years ago.
Many features, which we will gladly
explain, account for the advantages of
Heatrola over the basement furnace.
"To those foresighted residents of
Ely, who give us their orders for a
Heatrola between August 9th and Aug
ust 30th, we will deliver supply of

DISTRICT FOREST RANGER
WARNS OF FIRE DANGER

E. v. Calvert, of Tower, District
Ranger has sent out the following
warning of fire danger:
had for the past week, everyone should
be exceedingly careful with fire. The
forest litter is drying up very rapidly
and combined with the warm days
make it possible for fires to spread very
rapidly.
From July 81 to August 9th in dis
trict 18, fires have occurred and of
these were caused by neglected camp
fires of berry pickers.
With the increasing hazardous con-
ditions and the increasing number of
fires occurring, it is only matter of a
short time until conditions will become
serious.
IF lakeshores and islands attract
you during the warm weather, or if
you appreciate natures gift of good
berry crop, surely you will agree that
too much care in preventing the oc-
curance of any and all fires can not
be taken.
IF campfire must be built to pre-
pare meal build it where there is no
forest litter, use plenty of water in eX-
tinguiShing the fire, stir up the ashes
thoroughly and then soak the whole
with water again.
mot only should everyone use the
utmost care themselves but should
make point to explain the situation
to, and warn everyone else Of the need
for extreme care with all fires"

Mr.. Hunt has observed over period
of years the effects of poison ivy, has
used spearmint leaves to cure himself

"The leaves of the spearmint plant
are known to almost all who go into
the fields says Mr.. Hunt when the
ivy poisoning appears or even after the

of the juice by rubbing the parts with
