Margot Garrett is in a
dither of excitement at pres.
ent about the Coronation
and the necessary festivities
involved. She has a perfect
right to be as she will in all
. probability attend. If every
thing goes as has been planned
she will sail for England the
first part Of March and will
stay for several months.
Margot attended school
North FOreland Lodge in
England and is naturally look
ing forward to renewing her
old acquaintances there.
AS We dashed through the
restaurant in the Capitol Sat
urday afternoon we spied
Senator and Mrs. Claude Pep
per and a party of friends at
luncheon. The refreshing Mrs.
Pepper was garbed in a soft
gray tailleur. With them
were Mr.. and Mrs. Paul Shea
han who are visiting here
from Charlotte, n. c., and
also Mrs. William McCracken.
Mrs. Sheahan, a dazzling
blonde, was in a chic black
suit topped by two silver
foxes.
Check these dates on your
calendar, March 90 and March
81, if you're one of those
music loving souls who will
gladly make your way to Bal
timore to hear the Metropoli-
tan Opera Company, They will
present the first evening, "Lo-
hengrin" and the second, "La
Traviata. "
That internationally famous
horsewoman, 'Liz" Whitney,
or Mrs. John Hay Whitney, as
she is more formally known,
who usually pilots her ow n
thoroughbreds over the jumps
at horse shows and hunt club
hunter trials, has embarked on
new enterprise-that of dairy
ing on a production and de-
livery basis.
The mistress of Llangollen
Farm, near Upperville, Va, is
not only having milk from her
Guernsey dairy delivered at the
homes of residents of her own
neighborhood, but she is
branching out and including
Washington in her house-to-
house delivery.
Harriet Deems Black looked
very grand the other afternoon
walking in the grounds of the
National Cathedral out on Mt.
st. Adams. She had on
lovely black coat and pert little
hat, and she was most interested
in the little sprouts which were
peeping out of the ground, be-
ing forced by the then warm
weather.
There was traffic jam out
Massachusetts Avenue tn e
other afternoon and all caused
by some very innocent pedes-
trians.
/ Charming little Nine. RaJa-
maitri, with her brown flashing
eyes, was out for an afternoon
stroll with her young daugh-
ter, "Didi," and the Great Dane
which is the pet of the family.
Such an interesting threesome
did they make that onlookers
could but stop and stare with
undisguised admiration. "Didi"
should really 60 into the
movies-she photographs beau
. tifully and is like a perfect lit
tie doll.

Better Cooperation
by Courts is Urged.

Warning that ''the one major factor
that will ultimately defeat our conserv-
alton program underway in the state
particularly in northern Minnesota, is
non-support of existing game and fish
and forestry laws" Commissioner Her
man c.. Wenzel urged better cooperation
with the Department of Conservation
by municipal judges and justices of the
peace.
Ed. McKeever, deputy director of the
division of Game and Fish, in charge
of law enforcement in the division
stated that it is difficult to secure con-
victions even when the evidence is un-
questionably against the defendant.
"In many instances coming to our at
tention, defendants have been dismiss
ed without even the semblace of de-
liberation on the part of the jury" Mr..
McKeever said "Such an attitude
makes it almost impossible for ou1
state game wardens to perform an adj
equate job"
Gases where possible will be turned
over to federal courts for prosecution
so that greater respect for game an6
fish laws may result, he stated.

Resigns School Position
to Market Fruit Cakes.

The problem of baking between 1000
and 10000 fruit cakes in the home is
confronting Miss Mary Gillach, living
between Aurora and Biwabik
Miss Gillach, in order to complete
the task, has resigned her position as
domestic science instructor in the Gill
bert high school.
Completing a combination of ingredi-
ents which she believed made very
fine fruit cake, she prepared a sample
of her product and presented it to
Dayton's store in Minneapolis.
Dayton's first order was for $500
pounds. That has since been increased
to 10000 pounds = 10000 one-pound
cakes or 1000 five-pound cakes. And
other orders have come in too.
-Four assistants are helping Miss Gill
ach and each week finds trucks bring
ing supplies to Miss Gillach's home and
carrying away the finished cakes.

perior National forest, with about 1000
young men pushing roads into the tim
berland, covering the wilderness with
lookouts, phone lines and radio COM
munication.
"Other phases of the forestry pro-
gram in recent years have included the
surveying of additional summer home
sites, stocking of lakes and streams
with fish, survey of water bodies to de-
termine depths, nature of natural foods
and similar data and construction OF
fish rearing ponds.
According to Mr.. Harmon, vacation
use of the Superior National forest,
which stretches from the rock-bound
north shore of Lake Superior to the
virgin timber stands on the Canadian
boundary, is increasing every year.
During the last fiscal year total of
636 ,371 visitors came from 80 states and
several foreign countries to enjoy the
natural beauties of this vast lake-forest
playground. The largest number of
course were Minnesotans. But Illinois,
with 81 ,867 registrants; Wisconsin with
80, $50 and other states listed, the pop
ularity of the forest with Americans
throughout the land is seen.
THE forest service is proud of the
Superior National forest and desires
that Mr.. and Mrs. John Q. Public and
family know and appreciate this vast
property in order that it may provide
wholesome recreation. Forest rangers
wish also that the public take cogniz-
ance of the fact that there is danger OF
fire in the vast timber stretches and
that all steps be taken to prevent blazes,
both small and large.
Fire vigilance is one of the major
jobs of forest workers. Much of the
CCC program has to do with reduction
of fire hazards. To combat the menace
of lashing flames, steel towers have
been erected at vantage points through
out the Superior National forest, with a
trained lookout man on duty every day
in the spring and fall seasons-known
as fire weather seasons. Most of the
forest area may be seen from at least
two Of these towers and the observers
are able to spot smoke almost as soon
as there is fire. To smother the blaze
while it is small, flying squadrons of fire
fighters are maintained at key locations
equipped with power pumps and other
equipment best adapted to that partic
