Newspapers Render Great
Service in T. b. Campaign

Recognition of the splendid contribu-
ton to public welfare by newspapers OF
the state in the campaign for the con-
troll of tuberculosis is given by the
board of directors of the Minnesota
Public Health Association in resolu-
ton made public this week by the exc
cutive secretary, DR.. E. A. Meyerding
of St. Paul. The resolution follows:
Whereas the press of Minnesota has
rendered invaluable service in the cam
paign to interest and inform the public
concerning tuberculosis;
BE it resolved that the Board of
Directors of the Minnesota Public
Health Association commend the news
papers for this great public service and
extend thanks to the editors for their
cooperation"
During the 81 years the Christmas
Seal educational campaign has been in
progress, Minnesota's tuberculosis death
rate has been cut from liz deaths for
every 100000 of our population, to "a
per 100000; facilities for the treatment
and early discovery Of tuberculosis
among the best in the nation have been
developed, and comprehensive pro-
gram for the prevention of the dis
ease has been carried on. In ell of this
work the newspapers have aided by
overcoming apathy toward disease
by arousing public sentiment for better
facilities, and by extending informa.
durability of the disease, DR.. Meyerdins
explains. The generous cooperation o.
the newspaper during the annua
Christmas Seal campaign is especial!
helpful, the doctor states.
Plans for 1888 include an extension o
the program of tuberculin testing O
school children to search out Threatened
children and the source of their in
lection, DR.. Meyerding states.

INLAND Game Must
Be Used by January 10.

All upland game birds, that is,
pheasants and quail that were legally
taken and have been kept under the
conservation department retaining per-
NIT, must be consumed by January 10,
according to Director Harry E. Speakes,
division of game and fish.
Venison, if properly tagged, may be
kept until February % but must be
consumed by that date. Any upland
game birds, or venison held after the
dates specified are illegal, and subject
to seizure and the holder may be prose-
cuted under the law.
The federal regulations required that
waterfowl might be held only ten days
after the close of the season or until
November a. While these regulations
are plainly set forth in the license
regulations and law summaries fur
nished with licenses, number of ar
rests have been made by game wardens
for illegal possession of waterfowl after
November "a, according to Speakes. The
state division of game and fish is ex-
tending full cooperation to the federal
government in the enforcement of
waterfowl and migratory bird laws.

SEAL SALES
SHOW GAIN
Receipts Already Ahead of a
Year Ago With Returns
Three-fourths In.

Sale of tuberculosis Christmas seals
has gone over the top in big way
with receipts already ahead OF last year
and nearly one-quarter of the returns
vet to come in.
Persons who have not yet sent IN
their money or the seals are urged TO
do so at once so that the report on
the sale can be made to the Tuoer-
culosis and Health Association OF 81
Louis county, which sponsors the SALE
as soon as possible.
So far this years seal sale totals
s476.4s, as compared to $44o.s7 a year
ago.
More persons were sent packages OF
seals than a year ago which Is one
reason receipts have increased, accord
ing to those in charge OF the work
The SIS contribution to the fund MADE
by the now disbanded Oliver Employees
association, also helped.
Money raised through the sale o.
seals defrays the cost of tuberculosis
work carried on in the country ane
sponsored by the county organization.

ELY BOYS like
WORK In Navy
Young Men From This City
Tell of Opportunities for
Enlisted Men.

The contingent of Ely young men
enlisted in the navy of the United
States write encouraging letters re-
garding their social security, treatment,
opportunities to learn a trade, pen
sion after service, and several other
chances that await the Navy man.
One of the young men, in writing to
friends says in speaking of the OPP
portunitieS of the enlisted men:
For the young man between the age
of II and Is who is able to qualify for
enlistment in the Navy, opportunity Is
no longer around the corner. The Navy
launches more men on careers per
month than any other single institution
in this territory. The average number
of men chosen for the Navy per month
in this district is well beyond forty,
this, not only to their advantage but
advantageous to the community as well.
1T is seldom that Navy man has
occasion to realize the struggle for
existence that fills the lives of people
in civilian life. Throughout the country
people are living from hand to mouth,
working for a few days and then being
laid off because the condition of bust
ness will not warrant their continued
employment. These people are honest
sober, induStriouS-the finest people in
the world-caught in the grip of forces
beyond their control.
In comparison with this spectacle
let us consider for moment the stu
alton enjoyed by men of the nava
service. In addition to their very ade-
quate pay, they are comfortably housed
well fed, and above all, assured of al
absolutely secure position as long a:
they desire it enough to refrain from
gross misconduct.
add to this the fact that after {
reasonable length Of service they ma!
retire on pension for the rest of thei
, lives, and one has a picture of securit!
which is enjoyed by few on the tout
Z side
The Navy Department, too, has modi
8 fed the physical standards for enlist
3 ment so that young men as tall as z
8 inches are now eligible for enlistment
u Previously, the maximum height &C
ceptable was IA inches. The minimum
height remains unchanged-64 inches

Congressman william A. Pittenger, in
a letter tells us that he is closing his
Duluth office and that he can be
reached at Room 244, Old House Office

anything of a congressional nature in

pose to render all service possible in
connection with any matter in which
the district is concerned.

compliment to the press of the country

Democratic institutions and no finer
service is rendered the people Of the
community than their opportunity to
receive information from the public
press.

Hunters Bag Three Bucks
For Somebody Else.

Eveleth-"No, no, thousand times
no; there's no deer on your trailer"
said the checker at the Gheen CCC
station when told that there were three
splendid bucks in the trailer. The
hunters hurriedly jumped out of the car
and took look for themselves. But
alas, and alack, no deer were in sight.
They dashed back about 40 miles, but
still no deer-not even hide or hair.
After admitting there was slim chance
of ever seeing their game again, the
hunters checked over the trailer and
found that in some mysterious manner
the tail gate had unlocked and the deer
slid out Moral OF the story: If you
would have deer, you must bring them
home.

STRACHAN Wins

A full moon just peaking over the hori-
zon above which hung the greeting
Merry Christmas" in silver letters
served as a background.
Among those awarded honorable men
ton, the displays of Ellefsen and Passi
were impressive. The former featured
a silhouette of Shepherds kneeling in
prayer while the latter presented very
striking fireplace made of ice in which
glowed a red light. Lighted candles
decorated the mantel.
In picking the winners the judges
took into consideration the general ar
tistic effect, originality, ingenuity in
utilizing surroundings, conformity to
the Christmas spirit, size and lighting
effect. AS had been predicted and ex-
pected, selecting the three prize winners
was a difficult and time consuming
task, and it wasn't until late on Friday
evening, when the judging was done
that the final selections were made.
Since this and the contest for the
decorating of the business district were
the first of their kind held here, both
the judges and the contestants worked
from scratch insofar as rules and pro-
cedure were concerned. 1t was the
opinion of the judges and chairman in
charge that much has been learned
from this first contest and that next
year an even more successful one can
he rromoted
Some of the conditions discussed was
the classification of the displays into
several divisions offering similar prizes
in each division and a number of grand
prizes The selection of more than
three winners was also discussed.
Mr. Wilmunen, who originated the
idea of a Christmas decorating contest
and guided its progress, deserves a great
deal of credit for the fine showing Ely
made during the Christmas season.
Serving as judges in the home decor
ating portion of the contest were Mrs
A. j. McMahan, Mrs. Harry Homer
John Smrekar and A. K. Unger.

Fire Siren Aids Lost Man.

Coleraine-A citizen of Marble, out
hunting one day, became lost in the
swamp and the frequent blowing of the
fire siren in Marble helped him to find
his way home. The man had wounded
a deer, and started following it. He
soon lost his way and had been out
some hours when his family, thinking
he should be home, notified the police
and they blew the fire siren inter
mittently for some time The lost man
hearing the siren climbed tree and
from there located the various washing
plants and water towers and thus got
the right direction home.

Fire Bell Used so

Granite Falls-No more will be heard
the resonant "clang clang" Of the fire
bell in Granite. 1t has lost it's place
atop the cupola of the city hall and
hereafter must be content to occupy
spot in the corner of the firemens
meeting hall. The origin of the fire
bell is shrouded in mystery. No one
actually recalls when it was bought but
it is estimated that it dates back to
1881 and was purchased with money
left over from a fund created to build
an engine house. 1t served for years
for fires, meetings and as a curfew.
