Pigs NOlU Among
Troubles of Local Police

Red Wing-Enough is enough! In
fact, the policemen are seriously con-
sidering saving one section of their
new rounded desk for the handling OF
cases involving bees, pigeons, dogs and
SO forth. Now they probably will add
pigs to this list. A short time ago they
were called upon to "do something
about swarm of bees. Then they
were called to diSperse pigeons Next
came complaints about dogs. And then
one morning at 1890 they received a
call from a family who thought some
one was trying to steal their pigs, and
would the police "do something" about
it. When they rushed to the scene OF
the crime" there were pigs there sure
enough, squealing to the best of then
ability. The porkers were just being
unloaded at a barn.

VIRGINIA GAME
UP SATURDAY
Tough Battle Looms for Ely
Gridders With Undefeated
Virginia Bluedevils.

A greatly improved Ely football team,
that lost to Eveleth, Saturday, by only
one point, to 6, will tangle with a
highly publicized Virginia eleven here
Saturday afternoon. Coach Edward T.
Buckley's squad enterted the Eveleth
game as having an even chance to take
it and fell by the wayside by one point,
but they will have to turn in some
heads-up football to turn back the
powerful Queen City team.
The 1887 encounter, in which Ely was
rated as the underdog but survived on
the long end of 13 to score, hasn't
been forgotten. Whether the Vermilion
range squad can turn in another up
set won't be determined until about
4:30 o'clock, Saturday afternoon.
On paper the odds are heavily in
favor of Coach George Pepelnjak's
Bluedevils. They are undefeated dur
ing the present campaign having
whipped International Falls, 13 to 10,
johnson high of st. Paul, 18 to 6, and
Chisholm, last Friday, Is to o. His
squad has II lettermen from last year,
WILL 11FC luICilCu dllu one DdCkll61Q
man of this number being veterans.
On the line, Ely and Virginia will be
about even for weight, both teams
averaging around 160 pounds. Ely's
light bachield, averaging about. 137
pounds won't be able to match Vir-
ginia's 153-pound average.
Ely has defeated Tower, 40 to o, and
ping the Eveleth game. They will have
the advantage, however, of playing on
their home field.
There is no question but that vir-
giriia also remembers last years battle
and will be out to make things as tough
as possible Saturday for the city that
handed them their only setback in 1887

According to Mr. Ed Lindquist, 518
End Street, Bemidji, Minnesota, his
terrible rheumatic pains in his arms
have been relieved. Mr.. Lindquist
states, ST have been suffering with
terrible rheumatic pains in my arm.
In fact the pain was so severe that
could not sleep at night. I have
already told many friends of mine
about the relief that RUX has given
me from those rheumatic pains. I
am thankful to this company and
can honestly recommend RUx to
those who suffered as I did"
Many people have been so tortured
with muscular rheumatic pains in
arms, shoulders and legs that they
could scream with pain and RUx
relieved those attacks in an almost
unbelievable way.
Ask the James Drug Store about
RUX today. They will tell you
about the amazing powers of salicy-
lates in relieving the pain of rheu-
matte fever. They will tell you that
RUX contains salicylates and that it
is pure. Make the RUX test for

last week, but it wasn't his whiskers!

goes) he told Mrs. Klassen to get ready
as they were going out to see some of
the sights in state parks in the nor
thern part of the state. After rambling
a while up there Alvin came across a
cute little bear cub. He picked it up
and was taking it to the car to show
his wife when he heard a vicious
snort behind him-and there was the
mother bear coming along at no slow
pace. Alvin decided that now was the
time for all good men to get going,
and stumpS, brush, made no difference
to him-he got. Alvin expects to get
a teddy bear for Christmas.
