Sig Olson, instructor in biology In the
Ely schools spoke on Birds at the We'd
nesday meeting of the Ely Rotary club.
He told many interesting facts relating
to our feathered friends and especially
of the mocking bird, the first ever seen
in this section which spent from Nov
ember to January in the bushes near
the William Mitchell home and then
froze to death. He made the claim that
the bird had lost It's way and came too
far north in its wanderings or was
blown out of its haunts by heavy
storms. President Bolitho presided at
the meeting and the Presbyterian
Ladies Aid served the dinner.

CURRY HOME NEARLY
BURNS AT KERRICK

What almost proved to be dis
astrous fire occurred at Kerrick
Sunday morning. d. j. Curry
arose early as was his custom and
built up the furnace fire in his
home, after which he sat down to
read. About half an hour later
he smelled smoke and upon OPEN
ing the basement door he was con-
fronted with a thick wall of
smoke. He rushed to the base
ment with pail of water and
found the place formerly used as
coal bin in blaze. He threw the
water on it and returned to the
main floor again for another pail.
The second pail almost extin-
guished the fire but in attempting
to take the lamp and see he
stumbled over rug, breaking the
lamp and splitting kerosene against
the furnace register to start an
other fire. Finally he was able
to get both blazes eXtinguished,
but the house will need consider
able redecorating.

INTERNATIONAL
NEWS REVIEW
BY GEORG STRANDVOLD

We have all seen cute little puppy
dog chasing around in an effort to
reach the tip of its tail with it's
teeth; now it seems within reach;
then all of a sudden, it is too far
away; and then it comes nearer once
more-only to finally elude Puppy's
energetic chase. There is something
at once humorous and pathetic in the
scene; something that symbolizes the
futility of trying to reach a goal.
Just now the picture of the ma
tions of the world trying to capture
the elusive ideal of disarmament re-
minds one of Puppys vain exertions;
it is, from one viewpoint, comical
in the extreme; from another, not
merely pathetic but even tragical.
In recent weeks the quest for dis
armament appears to have been the
center about which nearly all diplo-
matte conversations have rotated;
center which repels as it attracts,
for to the non-diplomat it certainly
does look as though nobody really
wants disarmament although every
one praises it as beautiful and most
highly desirable thing. Now and
then some level-headed statesman has
declared that the only way in which
to attain disarmament is to disarm,
but, seemingly. this sounds too simple
for the diligent cultivators of diplo-
matte verbiage. At least, nothing
oh
are on record, and prospects are not
very bright.
Sir John travels. NJ
Ten weeks ago when Germany
astounded the world by suddenly
seeding from the League of Nations
and leaving the international con-
ference on disarmament it was said
in a thousand newspapers through
out the world that the next war was
like that phantom-like Prosperity
a year or two ago-just around the
corner. Of course, those who were
informed, and who had familiarized
themselves with conditions, knew that
war was not imminent-that is, not
in that literal sense On the other
hand, they realized, as does all the
world theoretically, at leastD that
heavy ornaments encourage warfare
at almost any time.
British statesmen realize this; ear

minister of Great Britain travelled

He came to Pine county in 1906 and

thought he had tumOr on the brain
but later proved to be a blood clot.
He was in the Moose Lake Community
hospital for week and then was
taken to the Bethesda hospital but in
spite of the skill of physicians he
gradually grew worse until death
came to relieve him of his suffering
At the time of his death he was
SO years, months and 20 days of age.
The funeral was held from the Ger
man Lutheran church in North
Branch Monday afternoon at o'clock

ROBBERS M AXE BIG
WAGES IN DEPOT RAID

Petty thieves were at it again
: in Askov Tuesday night and as a
result all for the sum of 35 cents,
a leather jacket belonging to
Agent "A. G. Danielson, and an
eight pound express package of
small caliber ammunition, doors,
drawers and the safe at the Great
Northern depot were considerably
damaged.
First evidence of the robbery
was learned by Bert Smith early
Wednesday morning when he
went to the depot to see if there
was any freight. He noticed the
mems waiting room door partly
open and upon Investigating he
found that the lock on that door
and on the inside office door were
pried loose where entrance was
gained to the office. The money
drawer was rifled and 35 cents
was taken but the bad men"
left a So cent express money or
der. Not satisfied, however, with
the "big gains" from the cash
drawer, with full knowledge of
the premises, the intruders went
into the basement where they
procured a spike maui and pro-
ceeded to hammer the inside
door of the office safe. This
they finally gave up as bad
job without gaining entrance, but
not until the door was badly dam
aged. However, nothing was in
the safe except records and Mr..
Danielson stated that the outside
safe door was not locked but was
just closed as matter of fire
protection. Things are being left
just as they are so that the rail-
road detective, when, he comes
today, can secure finger prints if
possible.
1t is thought likely that either
the yeggs got cold feet on the
job, or maybe it was cold Shout
ders, since they took a black
leather jacket belonging to Mr..
Danielson. This of course might
prove valuable during future bold
holdups or robberies when the
tenseness of the situation might
cause the blood to become a little
sluggish in the veins of the big
desperado.' Wh-o-oO!

C. N. TRAINS CHANGE
SCHEDULE SLIGHTLY

Becoming effective Sunday, De-
cember "a, the schedule of the
Great Northern passenger trains
through Pine county points will be
changed a few minutes. Following
is the new schedule announced:
No. 10 will leave Duluth 400 p.
m, as at present, arrive Mime
apolis 1880 p. m; st. Paul 500 p. m.
No. 20 will leave st. Paul 1870
p. m, thirty minutes later than at
present. Minneapolis 500 p. m.,
arrive Duluth $50 p. m.
No. "a will leave Minneapolis
9:35 a. M, as at present, arrive
Duluth 1:50 p. m.
No. % will leave Duluth 1928
a. m, arrive Minneapolis 1910 p. m.
The running time of trains 10
and 20 will be shortened 80 min
utes each, No. 23-32 minutes, No.
24-35 minutes.
While no definite time table has
been announced for Pine county
points at the time this is written,
it might be estimated that since
the morning rain, No. %, will leave
Duluth at the same time as for
merly, it's schedule will be speeded
up so that it will possibly get into
Askov about 10 minutes earlier and
the same will hold true with the
evening southbound flyer. The
northbound train, No. "a, will pos
sibly gain 20 minutes on its sched-
ule from Minneapolis and therefore
will get into Askov about 20 min
utes earlier than usual, but No.
20 will possibly be 10 minutes later
than usual. Definite time tables
will be had on these changes soon
by local agents.

TRUCK LENGTH LIMIT
ON HIGHWAYS 40 FEET

Orders have gone out to State High
way department patrolmen to limit
lengths of all trucks, or truck COM
binations of trucks and trailers, to
40 feet. John p. Arnoldy, chief of
the highway patrol, said trucks and
trailers are classed as one vehicle
under the law and that Chapter 225,
Section 35, Highway laws of 1888, sets
the maximum length. This section
supersedes all other legislation and
settles disputes on the subject in var
ious parts of the state, Chief Arnoldy
said. Lengths of trucks, or truck
combinations, vary in adjoining
states. In Iowa the maximum length
is As feet, in Wisconsin 60 feet until
1895 when it will become 40 feet;
North Dakota, SO feet, and South Da-
kota, 38 feet.
