CLUB FOUNDER
TALKS AT ASKOV
Garden Club Members Listen to Good
Points Brought Out by Duluth
Woman Monday Night.

The Askov Garden club held it's reg
ular monthly meeting in the school
house Monday night with only a few
attending, probably due to threatening
weather.
Besides the regular meeting of the
club being transacted, Mrs. r. P. Boy
ington founder and past president of
the Duluth Garden and Flower Society
was present and gave an interesting
talk on how the Duluth Society was
started and how it has progressed
until now it has the largest member
ship of any like society in the state
with between six and seven hundred
members enrolled.
Mrs Boyington gave brief history
of the horticultural society and its
work in the United States. saying that
approximately one hundred years ago
an Englishman brought the first lilac
bushes and other domestic shrubs to
this country at which time the Penn
sylvania Horticultural Society was
formed. The next year, also, Massa-
chusettS formed a like society, and
since that time numerous other So
cieties throughout the country have
been formed until approximately IS
years ago the Minnesota Horticultural
Society was formed, and which now is
the largest horticultural society in the
world
Mrs. Boyington talked on the diff
culties in achieving worthwhile re-
suits in any endeavor, and told how
the first club was formed in Duluth
with only five present. She impressed
on the minds of her listeners the ne
cessity of maintaining an attitude of
friendliness toward opposition and to
never fight back, saying that the op-
position will die of its own accord if
the project being attempted is worth
while.
In speaking of gardening and gar
den clubs, Mrs. BOyingtOn said that
it is necessary to grow gardens and
conduct this work, not through the
growing and conducting as material
undertaking, but to study the spirit
ual side of it. This and this only
will afford the real pleasure and bene
fit to those undertaking gardening
for, said she, The man who plants
red roses never plants Red Doctrine
Besides complimenting the local
club on its achievement, in SO short
time, of securing thirty members,
she was much impressed with the
Junior Garden club enrolment of SO
members. She also spoke of the APP
pearance of the community and was
optimistic toward the future of the
club.
After the speaking and general
meeting. lunch was served.
Those from out of town attending
the meeting were Mrs. Andrew Carl
son and daughters, Mrs. Henry
Neville, the Misses Ethel and Mildred
Carlson, all of Pine City.

YOUNG MARINE HOME
ON MONTHS FURLOW

Arnold II. Larson, son of Senator
and Mrs. Adolph S. Larson of Sand
stone, came home Saturday for a
months furlow from the U. S. Marines.
Young Larson has been with the
Marines for three years. the first Is
months of which he spent in Paris
Island. s. c., the next three months
in Nicaragua, and the last month at
Philadelphia. He is a corporal in the
Marines. but while in Nicaragua he
was lieutenant in the National Gardia
of that country. The American troops
are gradually being removed from
Nicaragua and there is now but about
1000 U. S. Marines left.
While young Larsen has experienC ed
and seen much during his three years
service in the Marines, he is. how
ever. not so enthusiastic about Nicara-
qua. The tropical climate is rather
hard on the northern boys The coun-
try. however, is rich in natural re-
sources.
Larson has another year to serve
in the Marines.

BRUNO GARAGE
MAN TAKES BRIDE
MIR. william Marihart and Miss Clara
NOrtrup are Man and Wife
Since June 4.

A beautiful June wedding occurred
in Willow River at o'clock Wednes-
day mroning, June 4, when Mr.. Will
liam Marihart and Miss Clara Nortrup
were united in matrimOny at st.
Mary's Catholic church, with the Rev.
Father Majas officiating.
/ Miss Nortrup is well known in this
community, having lived in Willow
River since babyhood, and the groom
is one of Bruno's prominent young
men who is in business with his
father.
The bridal party entered the church
to the strains of the Bridal Chorus
from Lohengrin. The bride was beau
tifully gowned in a dress of white
chiffon and a tulle veil. She carried
shower bouquet of white roses and
lilies of the valley and wore a beau
tifuT diamond, the gift of the groom.
Sisters of the bridegroom, the
Misses Leona and Mildred Marihart
as maid of honor and bridesmaid pre-
ceded the bride, who followed on the
arm on her brother, Fred Nortrup.
AT the altar railing they were met
by the bridegroom and groomsman,
Mr. Arthur Budd.
Miss Leona was attired in a princess
gown of orchid georgette crepe. Miss
Mildred wore delicate pink georg-
cite crepe dress. Both girls wore
picture hats of beige mohair.
After the impressive service was
over, a wedding breakfast of five
courses was served in the reception
hall at the manse. Covers were laid
for eighteen at one table. The room
was decorated in white and pink
streamers and lilacs.
Mr.. and Mrs. Marihart left i'm
mediately for an extended honeymoon
to the Black Hills, S. D., via Mime
apOlis and southern Minnesota. They
expect to return through North Da-
kota, northern Minnesota and Duluth.
Friends and relatives extend their
heartiest best wishes to Mr.. and Mrs.
Marihart for a long and happy welded
life.

and ore conservation, and for fear
that some people may regard these
| articles as Mr.. Therrien's complete
views, allow me to produce the record
of Mr.. Therrien in this respect.
Representative Therrien has NEVER
in his political life voted to lower
the tonnage tax or the royalty tax nor
does he ever intend to. Mr.. Therrien's
record shows that he is in favor of a
higher royalty tax than the present
SO tax, (as Mr.. Beckman agrees is
jusD, when in 1923 Mr.. Therrien
voted for 1919 royalty tax. (See
page Ala Minnesota house journal 35th
day.. On this very same vote how
ever Representative StOckwell (Farm-
er-Labor) voted AGAINST 1910 roy
atty tax, and as l have mentioned be-
fore the only bill introduced in the
Legislature to wipe out the royalty tax
was that of Mr.. Lommen, a noted
Farmer-Laborite of the senate.
Mr.. Therrien's record therefore in
favor. of the common people against
the iron ore interests is of the high
est commentator and one that merits
support in the coming election.
Mr.. Beckman in showing how the
tonnages of 1926 are increased by
those of 1927, etc, is merely proving
my contention that the mining COM
ores in the fastest possible manner
and will continue to do so until they
have cleaned up their holdings in this
state. Could the mining companies
afford to leave this high grade ore in
the ground when 500 ad valOrem
tax is eXacted every year? If a SINH
lar tax was placed upon a farmers
gravel how long would he leave it
on the farm if he had a market for it?
Mr. Beckman showed in an earlier
article how the forests were denuded.
showing lack of an early policy of
conservation but he would favor an
iron ore conservation policy by the
argument of saddling the iron ore
industry with super taxes. Is there
an argument more inconsistent? He
green gold by the timber barOns-
super taxes is doing that very same
thing to our great iron ore wealth.
If Mr.. Beckman feels he is competent
as judge in this respect he will find
that former Governor John A. john
son. the Minnesota Tax Commission
and former Governor Burnquist are of
the opinion that the present super
taxes are defeating any program Of
ore conservation.
Very recently Auditor Ray p. Chase,
candidate for governor, said on this
very matter: From the states stand
point, its need and responsibility is
to prolong the life of the iron mining
industry The most effective way. in
fact the only way, is to insure the
use of low grade ores. Each year
iron mining employs thousands of men
