decided it was time for me to take
another look-and add my quota to
the chorus of praise.
First, we will look at Barbara, the
wife. Barbara is the boss in the
Stanwyck- Taylor menage, and don't
think Robert Taylor doesn't know it
He likes it. Between them they own
three houSes-tWo ranches in the
valley, one in Beverly Hills. They
live in the latter, whiteWashed
English Tudor mansion. They have
three servants and car apiece. The
ranches are up for sale, because Bar
bara has decided she is strictly a city
girl. Besides, it is expensive to run
three houses.
The Taylors lead very simple
life. Both dislike night clubs; both
dislike dining out. At one time you
could see them at the Brown Derby
or the Trocadero on cooks night
out. But this palled on them. Now
they have girl come in every
Thursday and every other Sunday
to cook meals and answer the tele-
phone. Her duties are light. For
lunch the Taylors have peanut-but-
ter sandWiches-and coffee barbara
can down "a cups of. coffee a day.
For dinner, Robert cooks the steaks
or hamburgers on the big open fire
IN the living room.
Never Forgets a Friend.
When Barbara agreed to marry
Bob there was a condition attached
to her Yes shat Buck" Mack
must live with them. Not many
husbands would agree to the pres
snce of third person in the early
years Of marriage, but it was Buck
or no marriage. Buck lives in a
separate wing of the house with
Dion, Barbara's adopted 10-year old
son. He is companion for the boy,
plays with him and teaches him.
Mack also does the shopping for the
house and pays the servants.
He is about so years old and his
present association with Barbara is
convincing proof of her reputation
of never forgetting friend or a
kindness. He knew her in her early
days as chorus girl Mack at that
time was in vaudeville and an old
hand at show business. He helped
and encouraged Barbara through
the dark days of her career. When
vaudeville collapsed, Mack was hired
by Barbara for a lifelong job
Some movies couples make it
rule to refrain from discussing their
careers at home-but not Barbara
and Bob. Bob believes, and rightly,
that Barbara is a fine actress. He
depends on her judgment. She is
the advice giver. His roles are ruth
lessly dissected When they are
merely pretty boy parts, Barbara
tells him so and tries to figure out
how to inject vitality into them.
She is going to make a character
actor of Bob, or know the reason
why. So far she has expressed ap-
proval of only one picture-"Water-
loo Bridge" She likes Bob's latest,
Escape" but is little apprehen-
sive as to the public reaction to this
type of film.
Takes Her Job Seriously.
So much for Barbara's attitude
toward Bob at home. In public she
pushes him forward to take the ap-

OLSON NAMED
ON COMMITTEE
Selected to Arrowhead Group
to Study Winter Kill of
Brook Trout.

Sigurd F. Olson has been named a
member of a fish and game sub
committee for the Minnesota Arrow-
head association to deal with fish and
game problems within the Arrowhead
country.
First job of the group, headed by
Harry j. LaDue, Duluth, and contain
ing Is members, will be to make an
immediate investigation of the winter
kill of fish in Arrowhead trout streams
and compile report for Dr. W. L.
Strunk, state conservation commits
Sioner.
Many trout streams, LaDue reports,
are frozen clear to the bottom because
of the light snow that has fallen this
winter. Fish have been killed off in
large numbers, he said.
Conrol of headwaters to insure free
flow to maintain fish life is manda-
tory, he contends. State funds viii be
sought for whatever projects are lined
up
Olson was also appointed to make a
survey Of scenic and historic points
which should be preserved and pro-
hibited for sale to private parties. This
is in line with a growing trend of
thought that beauty spots should be
acquired by the government for public
USE
An attempt will be made to have a
governmental agency make survey of
the matter, and legislation may be
sought to authorize the purchase of
such sites.

City Council Rejects
All Fire Truck Bids;
Buy Truck for w. & L.
Ted Slogan Challenges the
City Council on Need of
New Equipment.
BIDS $13,968 TO $4,5O7
Water & Light Department
Get New Truck; Civic
Club Asks $500.

All bids on a fire truck for the city
Of Ely were rejected by the council at
the regular meeting held Tuesday
night. This action, which carried by
a 4-3 vote, followed a few dramatic
moments during which Theodore Slogan
challenged members of the council and
the fire chief to show why the city
needs new truck and where they were
going to get the money from.
Immediately after Slogan gave up the
floor, Alderman John N. Maxi offered
motion that the eight bids submitted
be rejected. Supporting him in the
roll call were Aldermen Toimi Ahola,
o. T. Friedsburg, and Joseph Milko-
vich. Mayor Bern Lambert and Al
dermen Frank VraneSich and Archie
Hedloff opposed it.
The Baxtrum garage was the sue
cessful bidder on utility truck for the
city water and light department The
garage was awarded a contract for a
II ton International truck on a bid of
$2,642.54, less $25 allowance on the 1881
Dodge traded in. There were five
Licenses for the off-sale and on
sale of non-intoxicating malt liquors
were approved.
Granted permission to speak by
Mayor Lambert, Slogan first asked
where the council was going to get the
money for a truck. The mayor in
formed him it was coming from the
general fund. He then wanted to know
if the expenditure had been provided in
the budget, which brought a negative
answer. When Slogan asked why the
city was purchasing truck, Mayor Lam
bert informed him that it was upon
the recommendation of Chief L G. Cox
Slogan then turned his attention to
Cox who replied that the town has out
grown present equipment.
That's foolish" Slogan declared, and
pointed out that he thought the truck
had performed satisfactorily at the
Tower fire to which it was taken several
weeks ago.
He declared that the preceding coun-
Gil, in compiling the budget for this
year, had cut all departments, putting
the money in the general fund for labor
use, and that these funds were now
threatened by the purchase of a truck.
"You should consider" he said, how
many men are going to be deprived Of
work"
He urged the council to buy only
what you need" and followed it with
the assertion that they didn't neeo a
fire truck.
Pointing out that the Ely CONNER
cial club had had numerous requests
for amounts not included in the bud
get, Secretary Ray Hoefler asked in a
communication to the council that il
grant the club $500 over the budget
so that the request could be given con-
Sideration.

that it be denied failed because of lack

Part of Winton School to
be Discontinued Next Year
Town of Morse Residents Seek
to Halt Closing; 5th and
9Th Grades Closed.

The school board of district No. IL
approved closing a portion of the Win
ton school at a special meeting held
Monday evening.
Grades five and six will be discontin-
ued at Winton and the pupils will be
transported to the Washington build
ing. Instruction will be continued in
grades one to four. inclusive, with one
teacher being employed.
A petition signed by many residents
of the Town of Morse was presented
to the board by John Hellberg and one
from Winton by Emil Kantola, both
asking that the schol be continued.
Mrs. Joseph Smuk, Girl Scout leader at
Winton, was present, and joined with
Hellberg and Kantola in discussing the
situation with the board.
The contracts of four teachers were
terminated. Unless another special ses-
sion is held before April l, other con-
tracts will be automatically extended
after this date for another year.
Contracts terminated included those
of Miss Audrey Barkala, instructor in
the washington building; Miss Alice
Fowler, seventh grade teacher; DR.. A..
Curtis Higgenbotham, who was hired
only for one years time while George
Gould of the Junior College staff was
on leave of absence, and Miss Mama
L. Forbes, who handed in her resig-
nation at the last regular meeting.
Miss Forbes had also been on a years
leave.
At the present time there are two
teachers employed at Winton, but one
of them will be transferred to the sys-
tenn here. This year there are IA pupils
enrolled in the first four grades and
eight in the next two.
