I have yet to see the first automobile
leave the curb or go through a traffic
sign of its own accord Automobiles
are dead objects. The only time you
find them moving is when a human
being starts them and operates them
We cannot blame the automobile for
these accidents. There is only one per-
son to blame and that is the operator
of the vehicle The dead automobile
standing beside the curb becomes
living, moving, speeding mass of steel
depending entirely upon the attitude
of the driver
Most men and women do their work
or drive an automobile as they have
been taught to do it. Most of them
have ordinary intelligence. Therefore,
the conscientious endeavor of spirited
men viii bring us all closer together
in a fellowship of common interest
That interest is to prevent automobile
accidents on highways. We can do it
by exerting ourselves and using common
ordinary sense.

who are most concerned in the adj
ministration of its broad program are
worthy representatives of the best in
American citizenship.
Red Gross chapters" according to
the national relief authorities, were
the first line of defense for the un-
employed during those trying months
before the states and counties, and
finally the federal government, put its
funds at the disposal of the casualties
Of depression"
Throughout these difficult days the
Red Gross has been on the job. Be-
fore the depression it was alternating
distress on a multitude of fronts
Drouth relief, help to flood-stricken
and to those pauperized by fire, storm
and earthquake, these ministrations
have been unending and complete.
Quietly, efficiently and without the
faint of politics or favoritism, the or
ganization has worked.
In Ely as well as other range towns
the beneficial influences of the Red
Gross has been felt and appraised for
its value. Its services have run the
entire list of human needs. Since its
membership is purely voluntary and its
appeal rests upon society's best i'm
pulses, it is a far-flung expression Of
the interest in the common welfare.
Every clergyman of the range, whick
is In the area of the Duluth Chapter,
supports the annual appeal. An en-
dorsement received this week is from
the Rev Thomas A. Welsh, bishop Of
the Duluth diocese of the Roman
Catholic church, and which reads as
follows:
ct sincerely hope that this years
roll call of the Duluth Chapter, Ameri-
can Red Gross, will meet with the
generous response it so well deserves
and I am confident that. once our
citizens realize the splendid purposes
Of the Red Gross, their active support
will not be wanting.
"As the embodiment of worldwide
helpfulneSs and service, the Red Cross
merits such support. All that has to
do with relieving distress imposed by
disaster, and making individual and
community life safer, happier and more
efficient is within the scope of the
Red Gross. The commendable work of
the Duluth Chapter in local as well
as national way is its recommendation
for the continued support of the people
of this community"

Miners Unable to Get
TlUin City Sewerage Jobs.

State Unemployment Officer Thos.
Hewett has received word from the
Offices in St. Paul to the effect that
local miners who go to st. Paul and
Minneapolis in the hopes of getting
work on the Twin Cities sewerage pro-
Jet, which recently got underway, viii

Robert Hutchinson, veterans place
ment representative in Minnesota for
the q. S. Employment Service, In q
letter TO Arvid B. Olson. MRS super
visor in this part Of the state, writes:
Recently there has been a rather
large influx of miners from the range
country into the Twin Cities with the
idea that there would be a good deal
Of work for them on the sewer project.
So far there has been an ample supply
Of miners obtained locally"
The project includes the construction
Of tunnel between the two cities,
necessitating the employment Of ex-
perienced miners. 1t was pointed out
however. that Twin Cities men receive
preference in JOB placement

Doctors Call Soap
A Good Germ Killer.

Plain soap and water is one Of the
most powerful of all projections against
the spread of disease, according to q
bulletin issued by the Minnesota State
Medical Association.
According to this bulletin recent
studies made in group of New York
hospitals have shown that pure soap
that is soap without excessive alkalis
have actual germ killing qualities
These germ killing properties are in
addition to the mechanical cleansing
properties by which the dirt is carried
of in the suds.
Some Of mans most dangerous dis
ease enemies including the strepto-
coccus, the meningococcus, the pneumo-
coccus and the diphtheria bacillus were
shown by laboratory tests to be af-
fected by ordinary soap. The tests
showed, too, that the hotter the wate-
used, the harder on the germs.
