A Model Village Hall The people of Cohasset are justly proud of their new village hall which was completed some time ago at a.cost of a-little. ever $5,000, It: ie admirably arranged for all. purposes Wor which it was intended.

It has a hardwood floor, well selected scenery for the stage, a $350 piano and in every way served the punposd of the vliage to their joy and satisfaction.

The entire building @® lighted with elec- tricity. Completing New Road Skelly Brothers, who have the con- tract for the road south of town, have the grading about completed. This road connects with the new bridge that is being built by the township across the Mississippi river at Cohasset. It will also connect with the Grand Rapids-Deer River state road after crossing the rivef, on the north side of town. T road is a little over two miles in length from the Mississippi river south in- to the territory where the iron ore is buried.

The last 50! feet extension will be a floating | bridge which will be very convenient | for gasoline and other launches as the water rises and falls. The fact that this port has excellent dockage eccommodation brings many a craft from Pokegama lake. The steel work on the new Miss- issippi bridge was begun yesterday under the direction of Superinten- dent Branenburg. It is expected that the brigde will be completed by November ist.
