Hint

When spreading sandwiches, leave
about 4 inch around the edges un-
spread. Then, when you put the
second slice in position press it down
firmly. The filling will spread to
the edges, but is less likely to ooze
out.

ELY FLYING CADET
ENDS PERTAINING,

An Ely youth, Aviation Cadet Jo-
seph F. Senta, has completed his pre-
flight training at the San Antonio,
Texas, aviation cadet center of the
army and is now advanced for further
training at the Wilson Bonfil Flying
School, Chickasha, Oklahoma.
A member of Cadet Senta's class
was Cadet Alvin P. Schaefer, son OF
former Ely resident, Alvin Schaefer,
and Mrs Schaefer, Duluth, and grand
son of The Miners publishers, Mr..
and Mrs. Peter Schaefer.
Just few days before completing
their pre-fight course, Senta and
Schaefer, along with the rest of the
class, were reviewed by President
Roosevelt, who was on his recent tour
of war industries and military estab-
lishments.
The San Antonio center consists OF
the pre-flight school, where future
pilots are trained for flying schools
and a classification section, where
aviation cadets are classified as pilots
navigators and bombardiers for ali
combat teams.

We seldom give much consideration,
it seems to me, to the effects on
children of moving from one house
to another, or one town to another.
We have more or less assumed that
to a baby it makes little or no diff
erence, while as matter of fact, even
very young baby feels the difference
when his parents are living under a
strain, when the household arrange
mentS are not Smooth-running, and
when efen the sounds that he hears
are not the old familiar ones. Mother
is apt to be over-tired, while unpack-
ing and getting settled; she is I'M
likely to be able to give the baby
quite the attention to which he has
been accustomed, and he can hardly
be blamed if he reacts by being fret
full. If there is the additional factor
of travel from the old homes to the
new, the baby's hours of sleep have
probably been disturbed, and he has
had to learn not only to sleep in a
different place, but to get used to
new noises, and in some cases to a
new person putting him to bed
One baby of fourteen months nearly
drove her mother wild for the first
month after they moved by long and
loud crying at the least provocation.
Normally contented body, she seemed
to have changed her personality Her
walls were especially vociferous when
ever her father left the house and
finally her mother began to realize
that the childs sense of security was
threatened by all the new circum-
stances Gradually the child began to
get used to the new house, and to
be reconciled to her fathers leaving
when she found that he did always
come back again.
OF course after children go to school
it is even harder on them to move
while the schools may be quite a lot
alike in their methods and rates of
progress, to get acquainted with
new group of children becomes
harder and harder as children grow
older. To make new friends at six
is relatively easy; to do so at thirteen
or fourteen is decidedly more tricky
The children in any neighborhood are
inclined to be clannish, and while
they may enjoy the new children
thoroughly after they get to know
them, they are at first pretty stand
offish and naughty, inclined to look
askance at the newcomers. Let the
new children say just one thing about
the superiority of their former home
town or neighborhood over the pres
ent one, and the battle is on.
At the present time, when the lives
of hundreds of thousands are dis
jointed by the changes incident to
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1942-10-22

and the bases of Mike Oreskovich and
Eleanore Baldwin VS.. Matt Yernitich
was begun. After hearing testimony for
half day, the case was settled out
of court and dropped. Peter MoscatelH
and David Bourgin were the attor-
neys.
The criminal actions of the State
of Minnesota VS.. Gabrielle De Meio
resulted in De Meio being sentenced
to 80 days at the work farm after
pleading guilty to a charge of second
degree assault.
The State of Minnesota VS.. Joe De-
beltz and Albert Maddern was heard
Tuesday and Wednesday. Assistant
County Attorney John Arko prosecuted
the case and David Bourgin defended
Debeltz and Madden.
The jury which heard the case
brought in a verdict of not guilty at
about 7:30 last evening.

ton of tales, stories, and poems, both
ancient and modern, suitable for boys

fascination in these books.

War Victims Receive
Red Cross Clothing

Does the clothing we make for war
victims reach them? is the question
most frequently asked members of the
war production department of the Red
Gross.
Master James Duff, Whittlesey,
England, answers this in a letter for
warded to Duluth from st. Louis,
headquarters of the Red Cross mid
western area, which says in part, 81
am writing this letter of thanks for
the beautiful clothing of which I was
badly in need. I am an evacuee from
the southeast coast. My mother, who
is very poor, is i'll and expecting to
go to the hospital have no father.
I shall always remember you"
This is typical of letters received
by the Red Gross, according to Mrs.
G. P. Tweed, Duluth, local war pro-
duction chairman, who said that less
than per cent of goods shipped for
foreign relief is lost.
First response to the kit bags sent
by the Red Gross chapter to over
seas army and marine corps men was
received yesterday by Clinton A. Den
ison, Duluth, executive secretary. A
member of marine corps unit, who
sent his letter of thanks by way of
the San Francisco postmaster, said,
Being so far from the United States
and civilization, the gifts We received
from you are considered great lux
uries to me and my men,"
Hundreds of women in range town
branches as well as Duluth worked on
this order for 1000 knit bags, first of
it's kind The bags, of alive drab
fabric, contained many small useful
articles impossible to obtain in a for
eign country as well as such ''lux-
uries" as a book, cigarettes, gum, play
ing cards and a complete little sew
ing kit. AS some of the articles re-
quested came under the priorities ban
substitutes were found Local merchants
