lives were sacrificed in the operation.
The loss TO the Miner is estimated at
5000. A small part of the damage to
the building and stock is covered by
insurance. The damage to the ma
chinery and stock is far more than the
surface indications show. Water on the
intricate machines have caused no end
Of trouble since Monday morning al
though large crew was Immediately
put to work drying the equipment.
Deputy Fire Marshal Floyd Farnand,
who had just completed an arson case
at Virginia was here yesterday and de-
cided to investigate. He talked with
Chief Cox who was firmly OF the belief
that an incendiary caused the fire.
Several others in the department, and
all who looked over the damage and the
circumstances leading to the corflagra-
tdon, also were of the same opinion.
This is the second attempt to burn us
out. Early in August an attempt
during the early morning hours was
frustrated by an innocent looking fire
extinguisher. The heat from the flames
had melted the solder securing the band
holding the glass container and
smashed the bottle and the flames
were smothered.
At that time we were of the opinion
that a cigarette stub had accidentally
dropped into a box containing some
paper cuttings, but this later attempt
clinches the belief that the other also
was an arson attempt. Entrance to the
building was gained in the first at
tempt. The doors were tightly locked
after that, hence the outside fire.

Tight Shoes, High Heels,
Cause In-GrOlDn Toe Nail.

Nearly three-fourths of the patients
operated on for ingrown toe nails are
women
This fact reported recently in a study
of a large number of operations for
this painful condition is cited in bull
letin issued by the Public Health Edu-
cation Committee of the Minnesota
State Medical Association today.
The reason that many more women
than men suffer this exceedingly pain
full affliction is laid by the physician
largely to the fact that women wear
tight shoes with high heels In which
the body weight is thrust forward and
down into the toes.
Ingrown toenail is not the only pain
full affliction that follows in the train
Of tight shoes and high heels. Dis
turbed body balance and poor posture,
broken arches and disfigured feet are
even more common. They are the por-
ton of the ajority who wear the pop
ular high heeled pointed toe and thin
soled shoes.
"The healthfulness and good sense
of the modern woman's dress down to
the ankle line is in fantastic contrast
to the primitive savagery of their foot
wear" according to the bulletin.
cit is a curious fact which passing
fashion does not wholly explain that
women's shoes grow worse, from both a
hygienic and economic standpoint, in
stead of better, each year.
Thin, narrow, stilt-heeled slippers
were once reserved for evening parties.
Now they are advertised and slavishly
purchased for all day wear and that
in spite of the fact that in these days
the majority of young women have
jobs that require them to be about and
on their feet during regular working
hours"

Gee QUOTA NOT
YET GIVEN OUT
Drive to Increase Number of
CCC Enrolment to 100000
Expected in October.

Enrolment of recruits throughout St.
Louis county and especially in the north
end of the county in line with the
drive throughout the nation to boost
the CCC enrolment to 100000 will be
made in October, according to Walter
Either, supervisor of FERA in north St.
Louis county.
Mr.. Either has not received the
quota for this area or the date of en-
rollment but has received bulletins re-
garding the new call for recruits or
dered by Robert Fechner, national CCC
director.
The bulletin states that recruits must
again come from relief families. Be-
cause of this regulation it may be diff
ficult to obtain many recruits on the
ranges, Mr.. Either said.
Mr.. Either further stated that almost
every eligible youth on the ranges is
already in the corps, but there are
scores of others from ''borderline
families" that is, families not on relief
but deserving of aid, nevertheless, who
are waiting to go into the camps.
To help swell enlistments, the min
imum age limit was dropped from 18 to
II years and the ranks were opened to
the enrolment of youths who have
served at least four months in the
camps and whose families still are on
relief, according to an A. P. dispatch
from Washington.
1t was anticipated that more than
5000 young men and veterans would
be enrolled for the forest camps in
October in a program intended to re-
place those who will drop out before
Oct. /, and to increase the corps to
more than the $4,000 figure reached
Aug. 81, Robert Fechner, CCC director
said.
officials stated that the maximum
number of enrollees could not be de-
termined until it was known how many
individuals would drop out before the
first of the month by reason Of ex-
piration. 1t was also expected that
quotas would be received this week.
Virtually all war veterans in transient
relief camps will be eligible, regardless
of age, to sign on with the CCC.
We understand that there are many
boys in this city who are on the list of
the FERA for enrolment as soon as
the lists are opened.

Not Interested in Brands.

Imposters representing themselves as
agents from the Office of David r. Ar
undel, state liquor control commits
sioner, have been appearing in liquor
establishments throughout the state,
says a bulletin. At times they have
suggested that liquor dealers buy GER
tain brands of liquor, at other times
they have confiscated small amounts
of liquor under the guise of having
such tested. Mr. Arundel requests that
liquor store dealers demand identifi-
cation from anyone representing them

thermore, he added, none of his men
are interested in what brand Of liquor
a store or bar carries.

group. The commissioner stated that
blacktop dressing costs only about one
third as much as does the paving and
he thought a dressing of this kind would
fill the bill for several years until the
paving could be done.
The local spokesman referred to a
resolution passed by the Commercial
Clubs early in the year whereby they
went on record against the expense OF
a blacktop dressing and were emphatic
in their demands for paving instead OF
the blacktop. They wanted paving and
stated positively that If only one-third
as much paving could be done at the
cost Of blacktop, they would prefer the
three miles Of paving.
The Ely paving proposition is on the
list for letting sometime this fall, &C.
cording to Commissioner Elsberg. This
will give the paving a start and with
a program started, the general opinion
is that the entire stretch will be COM
pleted as rapidly as possible
The spokesman for the Cook delega-
ton also brought up the matter of the
relocation Of No. along the shores OF
Lake Vermilion through Cook. The re-
location would start the road near the
saw mill at Tower and would necessi-
tate bridge over the narrows. This
bridge would be an expensive one as il
would necessarily be a draw affair Oh
high enough to permit sailboat masts to
pass under, according to opinions ad-
vanced by the opposition to the new
location.
Opposition to the new road is entered
by the keepers of resorts along the
south shore of the lake which are now
served by the paved portion of 1859. The
resort owners are using the bridge sub
jectSas wedge in their argument. Both
sides have valid reasons; Cook for the
desire for the new location and the re-
sort owners mentioned against the pro-
position.
Highway No. /, or the "Steel-to-
Wheat" highway was originally routed
by its proposers over the eastern roads
to Cook and through the towns west
In the plans of the state highway de-
partment the road connects at Angora
with No. So and runs outside of Cook
about a quarter of mile This does
not meet with the approval of the Cook
people and hence the request for a re-
routing. The Wheat" or No
I begins at Little Marais on the North
Shore and comes over the Ely-Finland
trail to Ely, thence to Tower, Cook
