Somewhere in the northern part O
this beautiful Arrowhead country o
ours is a three-legged deer hobblint
along through the underbrush, thank
full that there are a few kind-heartet
youths left in this day and age. Som,
ruthless poacher, with no regard for tht
law, missed vital spot in his quarry
and only succeeded in smashing the
hind limb of beautiful buck CCC
boys, who came upon the unfortunate
animal, took time and patience to carry
the buck to camp where they ampu-
tated the shattered limb, dressed the
wound, and gave the animal its free
dom. Occasionally We hear rumors OF
CCC boys destroying game birds and
wild animals, but We know they are
fantastic tales made up by those who
would put the lads in bad The above
incident is only one case which proves
the CCC youths believe in conservation
and not in destruction.

Did you ever try to peg up couple of
holes in milk can and put it in your
pack-sack when on canoe trip?-and
find milk in everything except the can
when meal time came around? Here's
little tip: Merely cut up two squares
of adhesive tape and place them over
the two holes and you'll have your can
sealed as tight as the proverbial Scotch
man.

Taking their investigation to the
forest section of the state, the legiSla-
ture interim commission on forestry
will make a five-day tour of northern
Minnesota, June q to July 1, according
to Herman G. Wenzel, chairman con-
Servation commissioner and chairman
of the of the commission. The itinerary
will include visits to forest areas, cut
over and tax delinquent lands, state
nurseries, paper and lumber mills, parks
and CCC camps; also evening meetings
where local citizens and officials will
discuss their land and forest problems.

The latest movement to foster fellow

see no reason whatsoever why these

often in every family. Practically every

Elevator Stalls
Becomes Prison

Springfield-Trapped in stalled ele-

prisoned for forty-five minutes was the
experience of Mrs. Harold Carlstrom,
nurse at local hospital Mrs. Carl
strom was operating the automatic
electric elevator when it suddenly
stopped midway between the second
and third floors. The other nurses were
at supper and although several patients
heard Mrs. Carlstrom scream for help,
there was only one patient who was
able to move. An electrician was called
and after removing the grill from the
electric elevator the imprisoned nurse
was released.

We've been waiting for this! From
June 20 to %, inclusive, so Twin City
club women will make their second an
nual conservation caravan through
sorShip of the Minnesota Division OF
Forestry. If We could only get these
females as interested in conservation
as they are in keeping the change out
of hubby'S pockets, we'd really have
something. For some reason or other
women always did have the Indian
sign" over men and they would be a
big help to the conservation depart
ment if they would give their husbands
good roasting" every time they came
home with unlawful limits.

Bert says: 81 use 5k foot casting rod
with good flexibility and a line testing
only II pounds. Just cast out 80 feet
or so, let the lure sink bit and reel

right to have Chicago man come up
here and show us how to fish, does it?

Harry S. Speakes, director of game
and fish, says Minnesota game bird
production for 1888 will establish new
record. Over $4,000 eggs have already
been produced on the two state game
farms and the production for the season
is expected to reach 10000 pheasant
eggs, $4,000 quail, and 5000 chukars.
If this successful work keeps up it
looks as though Minnesota hunters
won't have to worry about depletion
of game birds-providing Mother Ma
ture gives them break.

The Right Man For the
Important Office of
County
Attorney

An inherent strength of character,
personal integrity and ability have
been the contributing factors in the
making of public service career for
Thomas J. Naylor, our County At
torney.
Notwithstanding the handicap of
having his education interrupted by
the World War, in which he served
overseas, he resumed his studies at
the University of Minnesota Law
School and was admitted to practice
law i'm 1924.
Shortly thereafter, he started his
apprenticeship in the County AttOr-
ney's office as investigator. In 1881
he was appointed first assistant. Up
on the resignation of the then county
attorney, Harry Boyle to accept an
appointment to the State Tax Com
mission, he was appointed to the va
cancy by the st. Louis County Board
of Commissioners. This choice was
later ratified by the people at the
polls.
Upon the death of Chas. E. Adams,
special counsel for the Board of
County Commissioners, Mr.. Naylor
took over the duties of the special
counsel, inaugurating a new de-
parture in st. Louis County.
In cases arising out of litigation of
taxes, he recommended the appoint
ment of Patrick Ryan, former coun-
sci for the Brotherhood of Railway
Conductors and special counsel for
the State of Minnesota in tax mat
tiers, to be associated with him, thus
assuring st. Louis County the ablest
legal representation available.
The office of County Attorney is
judicial and non partisan and has
been conducted as such by Thomas
j. Naylor. He, together with staff
of able assistants have had the pub
lie interest in mind at all times.

Why Frontier Women Carried Guns
During the Revolutionary war
some British officers offered the In

VISITORS day
AT SMELLING
Minnesota Military Post Invites
You to Help Celebrate 10th
Anniversary of Chapel.

Ten years ago the soldiers and citi-
zenS of Minnesota contributed approx
mately one hundred thousand dollars
to the Fort Smelling Chapel and Com
munity Center Association, Inc. This
was composed of voluntary group of
officers located at Fort Smelling, to-
gether with few interested citizens in
the Twin Cities, who earnestly believed
that the garrison at the Fort should
have an adequate place in which to
conduct its religious services and COM
munity affairs.
The campaign was statewide in it's
appeal to individuals and groups of men
and women. The Veteran organiza-
tionS-SonS and Daughters of the
American Revolution the G. A. R. and
the Women's Relief Corps, the Spanish
American Veterans, the Veterans of
Foreign Wars, the American Legion and
their AuxiliarieS, joined hands with
church, fraternal, civic and commercial
organizations, to erect and dedicate a
fitting memorial to the soldiers of Min
nesota, who have served or were serv-
ing their country, living and dead.
1t is to be a memorial that commemor-
ated not only the past, but projected
itself into the future. 1t was to be, not
only monument, but living institu-
ton that would serve those that were
to come after them in the noblest way.
1t was to be a place that housed not
only memorials of historic events, which
centered in and around Fort Smelling
from the pioneer days down to the
present time, but a house in which
those who were garriSoned there in the
days to come might find inspiration to
carry on bravely and courageouSly.
For ten years this Chapel has been
in constant use for religious and well
fare purposes. Here Protestant and
Catholic services are conducted each
Sunday. With its choirs, Sunday
School, Brotherhood, Chapel Aid So
ciety and Altar Guild, Boy and Girl
Scout Troops, the Post Library, and
its facilities for all kinds of social ac-
Invites, under the direction of the Post
Chaplain, it has proven itself to be a
real community center for the garrison.
In appreciation of this splendid gift,
the Commanding General, Brigadier
General Campbell B. Hodges, and the
Post Chaplain, 1t. Col. Albert L. Evans
have scheduled June 5th, as visitors
Day" at the Post, and invite all who
are interested to attend the services
there that morning, inspect the Chapel,
participate in the open-air gathering
in the afternoon, witness a parade of
the troops, see the Round Tower" the
Oldest building in Minnesota, and other
places of historic interest. The gar
rison will open its heart to you that day
to say thank you" for the Memorial
Chapel. This is your Memorial and your
Fort. Why not make pilgrimage to
it June 5th?

Control Stray Dogs to
Prevent Rabies Spread.

There are less than 100 deaths from
rabies each year in the United States;
but these are needless deaths, accord
ing to the Minnesota State Medical
associations committee on public health
education.
In view of the fact that observations
during the last few years have indicated
the disease to be increasing among
animals in many parts of the country,
the committee declares that the cur
rent small epidemic among dogs in
Minneapolis should serve as the &C.
casion for a special campaign of educa-
ton about prevention and control of
rabies.
The Pasteur treatment will usually
prevent human deaths from the dis
ease if it is administered before actual
symptoms appear, according to the doc
tors bulletin; but real control of the
disease should begin with the control
of its spread among animals.
Stray dogs are usually the carriers
of the virus, though other animals, also,
are susceptible to the disease. The first
step in rabies control, therefore, is to
shut up stray dogs and prevent them
from biting others.
Rabies appears more often in summer
than winter because animals move
about and mingle more freely in sum-
mer. 1t is therefore important to
watch all dogs in summer, especially,
and to avoid them if they behave pc
culiarly. If they are abnormally quiet
and unresponsive they are as likely to
be coming down with the disease as if
they are abnormally excitable and rest
less.
The disease is communicated through
a bite that forces the virus into the
tissues of the victim. At least two
weeks elapse before the symptoms ap-
pear. During this two weeks the dog
should be shut up and watched. If
signs of illness appear in the dog,
treatment should be started i'm
mediately.

LEGION GOES TO WAR!

Members of The American Legion Of
Minnesota have again gone to war, this
time against new enemy which lies in
wait, not in the trenches and on the
battlefield but along our highways, our
railway sidings and in our fields. Dis
guised as a bright green plant which
will later be topped by mocking tuft
of flowers, this new enemy fights no
clean fight with its equals but chooses
the young and the weak as it's unfor-
tunate victims.
That enemy is Marijuana-the De-
ceiver-which holds in its finger-shaped
flowers dangerous drug substance
capable of causing untold harm and
tremendous human suffering to all who
risk its use Mental stupiications, the
breaking down of moral barriers, the
irresistible temptation to commit vio-
lent crimes; all these are in store for
the men and women, boys and girls,
who seek the thrill of a "Marijuana
jag"
The terrible thing about this new
menace is that it is so close to us, so
easy to gain its terrifying foothold in
every community. For Marijuana, or
Indian hemp as it is sometimes called
is a hardy weed which grows wild in
any climate and in almost any soil. 1t
needs no cultivation. Its leaves and
flowers, when dried, crushed and rolled
into crude homemade cigarettes, do
their disastrous work at once. Nc
elaborate extracting or refining process
is necessary. Marijuana manufacture
is as simple as that.
Becuse it IS so common, drastic means
must be undertaken to eliminate the
unlawful growth of the Marijuana
plant wherever it is found This is the
important peacetime war the American
Legion has undertaken for the protec-
ton of Minnesota children and COM
munities. The Minnesota Legionnaire
official state publication, has already
shown its desire to cooperate by donat-
ing a series Of pages outlining the
whole campaign. This is a serious wal
in the successful waging of which all
citizens should whole-heartedly CO.
operate.
