Wednesday marked the beginning of
the Lenten season and regulations to
cover the period between now and
Easter have been mailed to all pastors
in the Duluth diocese by Bishop
Thomas A. WEIGH.
According to Bishop WEIGH, the law
of abstinence binds all those over the
age of seven. The law of fasting ap-
plies to all who are over 81 years of
age and have not yet entered on their
Goth year, if they be not exempted by
reason of their health Or occupation.
On Wednesdays and Fridays and on
Ember Saturday, abstinence is pre-
scribed. On these days flesh meat is
not allowed, nor broth or soup made
from meat.
On fast days, those bound to fast are
allowed one full meal, either at noon or
in the evening. In addition, they are
allowed two light meals, one of about
eight ounces, at which butter, cheese,
eggs or fish may be taken in small

SUPERIOR Quetico Committee
Urges Huge Forest Preserve
Group by President Recommend Treaty with Canada
to Set Aside 100000 Acres Minnesota Ontario
Boundary Wilderness Area.

Congress enacted the Shipstead-
Nolan bill in 1880 to protect natural
water levels of lakes and streams in
the region following the attempt of the
Backus interests to construct series
of dams along the border to divert water
flow into certain channels for power
purposes. According to figures at that
time given out, Eastwood Lake was to
have been raised by dams a matter of
10 feet and Little Vermilion Lake a
matter of 80 feet with corresponding
raise of waters in all the lakes of the
border.
Completion of the project, the report
points out, requires two further steps:
Acquisition of title by the federal gov
eminent to all lands privately owned in
the Minnesota portion of the area and
the negotiation of a treaty between the
United States and Canada, assuring
permanent administration of the area in
conformity with the Quetico-Superior
principles. The report is emphatic in
recommending that "the United States
enter into treaty with Canada, pro-
viding that each country administer its
portion of the region substantially in
accordance with the general principles
approved by this report"
1t is estimated that it will require
about $2,5000O0 to purchase the pri-
vate holdings in the vast domain
amounting to about 901 900 acres. It is

On This
Occasion
A Few Observations on Matters
Material and Immaterial by
the Editor.

Several families could have
been kept off the relief rolls
with the $4,000 g: Chicago
woman left to her pet dog.
The humanitarian aspect of the
case was given hard blow
when the will stated that enc
one is interested in my welfare
outside of my pet dog who is
my sincere friend" Two cous-
ms, who tried to contest the
will were turned down by a
judge who heard the evidence.
Outside of sounding rather
foolish, it also goes to show
that you are not forgotten by
cousins, aunts, uncles, and
what-have-you after you have
passed on-providing there is
an estate-even if they did not
know you when alive.

people who cannot easily observe the
common law of the church, may eat
meat on all days of fast and abstinence
throughout the year including the Len
ten season, except Fridays, Ash Wednes-
day, the forenoon of Holy Saturday and
Christmas Eve. This dispensation in
cludes not only the individual working
