"IMMORTALS" VISIT
BELGIAN ACADEMY.
Tradition Broken for PartiCi-
patton in Anniversary Cere-
monies in Brussels.

PARIS (N.ANA).-Theo other day.
for the first time in the history OF
the Academic FrancaiSe, the "Immor-
tails set cut in a body, resplCndent
in their green uniforms, to take part
in q number of official ceremonies IN
Brussels. They we're the guests OF the
Belgian Academy, at whose nome IN
the Chateau de Marimont they were
entertained.
The Belgian Royal Academy OF
French Language and Literature Is
celebrating the tenth anniversary OF It's
founding, and began its festivities In
a most auspiciouS manner by getting
the Immortals to break with age-long
tradition and leave their home on the
banks of the Seine to come a-visitlng
collectively. Some of the older and
more conservative members are still
waggihg their heads about 1t.
French Academy Car.
But this is not all. The French
Academy is to have new car. The
old landau which has been in service
ever since it paid its first visit to the
Elysee in 1879 made its last othcial
appearance when it bore thither the
newly elected members. M. Andre
Chaumeix and M. LIE Goft1c.
The coach is to be replaced by an
up-to-date limousine, which might well
have borne NJ. Chaumeix, for like that
sign CT the times and tribute to the

for 80 years chief leader, writer and
political director of the Journal DeS
Debats, elected to the seat rendered
vacant by the death of M. Clemenceau,
was the first journalist to be accorded
the highest literary hOnor in France
for his journalistic work alone.
The academy thus gave his journal
ism the authoritative hall mark OF
literature.
The age of speed is having its way
with the academy's great jobs. too.
Ever since its foundation in 1885 the
academy has been engaged upon tne
dictionary. The first edition did not
appear until 1894, the seventh came
out in 1878 and last month saw the
green paper wrapper of the first volume
of the eighth almost disappearing
beneath appropriate ceremonial speeches.
Volumes Available in 1884.
But the two volumes Of this complete
edition are to be available in 1884, and
the 40 great gentlemen are now tack
ling the early letters OF the alphabet
for the ninth edition. The grammar,
moreover, is expected by the end of this
month or early in July, for its proofs
are already being considered.
Richelieu, it will be remembered,
wanted the academy TO "Rediger un
dictionnaire, une rhetorlque, une po-
clique ct une grammaire," and until
our own day the dictionary had been
the only one Of these works to be un-
dertaken, fer all the Thursday after
moons that the members have been call
ing their meetings for work" since the
days of Louis XII.

PLEASURE CRUISE
FIRST FOR ARCTICS
Icebreaker to Leave Archangel
Soon Carrying About 40
Passengers.

MOSCOW (N.A.NA).-At the end
Of this month the powerful Soviet ice
breaker Maligin will leave Archangel
carrying a group of about 40 passen-
gers on the first pleasure cruise ever or
ganized in the Arctic Ocean. The
Maligin will touch at Franz Josef Land,
where the northernmost radio station
of the world has been established, visit
the larger Arctic area of Nova zem-
bla and return after cruise Of some
seven or eight weeks.
Passengers who wish to hunt polar
bears will be assisted by Northern hunt
ers, who will form part of crew ex-
perienced in Arctic navigation. The
icebreaker will have q doctor on board
and a short-wave radio station. Fa-
cilities will be provided for the collec-
ton of Arctic plants.
Perhaps the greatest attraction about
the voyage is the fact that 1t will take
place in perpetual light, since the Arc
tic sun does not set during the Sum-
mer months The trip is advertised as
particularly healthy one, too, by In
tourist, the Soviet state tourist organiza-
ton.

ARC LIGHT REFLECTION
MELTS METAL IN TEST
Swedish Engineers Utilize Ancient
Burning Mirror Idea
in Industry.

STOCKHOLM Cp).-In the Artillery
Museum of Stockholm there is an
ancient burning mirror of large dimen-
sions, formerly used by the Swedish
army as a means of defense against
hostile ships.
The mirror was placed in the sun
so its reflection set fire to the vessels
approaching Sweden's shore.
A scientific adoption of the burning
mirror has been made by two Swedish
scientists, who constructed a powerful
melting furnace, using an elliptical
mirror and a strong electric arc light.

mace before the Society of Physical Re-
search the inventors obtained heat

The monument consists of q stone
chamber lit by a circular skylight and
furnished solely by single block of

and upset the Mora stars in a nine
inning contest at Hinckley Sunday by
score of IA to z.
Manager Jupe Johnson started his
younger lineup and up to the fifth in
ming was bringing up the rear with
two scores to the visitors seven. In
this frame Westerman replaced Dun
ply on the mound for Hinckley, Pear
son went to right in place of Brown,
Westman replaced Bob Stanchfield at
third base and Fred Johnson went to
center field for Bud Stanchfield.
When these heavy batters came up
for bat the aspect of the game sud-
denly changed. Four runs were
pushed across in the fifth inning in
which frame Art Pearson took hold
of one of the Mora pitchers offerings
for terrific drive to right field to
clear the loaded bases placing himself
on third. In the next inning with
two more runs on the bases he con-
nected with two Dagger into center
scoring them. He singled in his last
time at bat finishing perfect day.
Hinckley Has Strength.
Ernie Westerman stopped the Mora
club after going in to pitch in the
fifth and contributed two nice hits
in his turns at bat. Billy Lammerts
was back in his old position at first
and the infield showed their con-
fidence in his ability to get throws
by going about their work in sure
fire fashion. Bill is a dangerous hit
ter at all times and the boys are glad
that he is there in his old position
as of old, one of the best first base
men in this part of the state. John
Harapat at second played his usual
steady game and started his Eastern
Minny career at bat by getting two
hits in four trips to the plate and one
for extra bases. Jack Herman at
short, demonstrated his speed on the
paths and his ability to get in front
of drives that ordinarily go for hits.
The boys like Jacks playing and are
pleased to have him with them on the
team. Gust Westman playing third

crop this year is not good. The old
gentleman was accompanied to Stur--
geon Lake by his niece, Miss Edna
Meyer, who is employed in Minneapo-
lis. She is daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
VIM. Meyer. The senior Meyer is

Lake relatives doing we'll. The Rev. S.
T. Meyer came to Sturgeon Lake in
June of 1914, two weeks after the
Catholic church and parsonage burned
to the ground. Both were rebuilt

RUBBER GAME FOR
STURGEON, MOOSE
Tied Position i'm First Half of Pine
County Baseball League to Be
Broken Sunday.

The play-off to decide the tie in the
first half between Moose Lake and
Sturgeon Lake in the Pine County
Baseball league will be played at
Moose Lake Sunday, August 2. Moose
Lake won the toss-up on this game
in deciding where the game was
to be played when the managers met
at Moose Lake on Monday.
The dope on this game is as follows:
If Moose Lake wins, three game
play-off may be necessary, the play
off to start the following Sunday. If
Sturgeon Lake wins, the baseball
season will be over as far as the Pine
Sturgeon Lake will have undisputed
title to both the first and the second
half of the seasons play. 1t is evil
dent that under these circumstances
both teams will make an extra
ordinary effort to win Sundays game.
Moose Lake will attempt to make good
its last chance to win the pennant
and Sturgeon Lake will attempt to
clinch the title and end the suspense.
The game will be played under the
same regulations as all other league
games and one N w. Umpire will be
used. No doubt this will be a game
that will be we'll worth seeing.
The Sturgeon Lake team will play
a game at the Pine County Fair with
the Pine City team. This game will
take placa on Friday Or Saturday

ON WASHINGTON Letter
By " HDaley

Washington, July 29-Decision of
President Hoover to stay in Washing
ton for the summer insures govern
mental activity and the presence of
multitude of minor government Of
fcials who would otherwise take long
vacations at the taxpayers expense
The time has long passed when the
town became colorless and tranquil
with the departure of the legislative
body. The city has retained its war;
time reputation as a world center and
expanded so it is no longer standard
lied by seasons or Congressional ses-
sions. Candor compels the admission
that the wheels of government run
smoother with Congress away. The
Congressional mania for intervening
at the least possible excuse into the
affairs with which the legislative
group has no concern or real interest
has a tendency to over-shadow in
dustry and government agencies. 1t
will be recalled that a nationwide
survey of business last winter brought
an overwhelming vote from cham
bers of commerce favoring the shut
ting down of the Congress as a relief
measure to the country.
Men and women who have been
designated or mentioned as delegates
to the nominating conventions of the
two major political parties find them
