~~ PAGE EIGHT. 1 Home-Happiness for You! Long winter evenings; the home cosily heated upstairs and down; the rosy tints of the red- glowing fire playing on the faces of friends and loved ones gathered about--these are the pleasures and the happiness a FAVORITE BASE BURNER will bring into your home. A Favorite will heat your home luxuriously warm all winter long with from 2 to 8 tons of coal. Don’t shut up your house and live in just a few rooms this winter. Heat your entire home comfortably with a Favorite Base Burner. It will cost you less than you paid for heating one or two rooms last year. Come in now, and let’s talk it over. W .J.& H. D.

The plant at Marshall is under the | direction of Eugene Simmons, form-! erly of Wadena, and the heat is Piped to most of the business blocks in the city. There has been talk along th's line heretofore in Wadena which has come to nothing, but with the pros- pective construction of a number of | new buildings in sight it would seem that the present would be a good time to agitate anew. U.S, STEEL TRUST WILL CANCEL LEASE Agreement to Mine All Minerals on Great Northern Properties Will Be Abrogated. Marble people are wondering what effect the decision of the United States Steel corporation to abrogate its lease of the Hill ore properties will have on business conditions in this village. The general opinion is, however, that this will in no way affect the working of the Hill mine. Jt is very probable the matter will be satisfactorily adjusted between the two companics, but if it is not, when the lease is thrown up, the Hill interests will work the proper- ty, so it will not interfere with the material prosperity of Marble. A news report from New York | reads: “The United States Steel corporation will cancel its lease of the Great Northern ore properties, one of the largest leases of the holds. The rumor, current, in Wall street Wednesday, was confirmed after busi ness hours from off.cial sources, which declined to be quoted. When | the lease will be terminated, is un- determined. The contract stipulates that it should continue unti] all the jore was exhausted, unless on Janu- ary 15, 1915, the lease should be jabrogated, under the option reserv- |dd by the lesse, and in case the lesse so determined, two year’s no- | tice should be given The Great Northern properties; jare estimated to include deposits of | 300,000,000 tons of iron ore. Officials of the steel corporation refuse to |state the reasons for the cancella- jtion of the big lease, and this phase |is a matter of conjecture. } “No figures are available as to ; how much ore has been mined since | |the opening of the Great Northern | properties. The lease provides thut | the corporation mine 750,000 tons more each successive year, and that the specified amount of ore must be paid for whether it is mined or not. Under this provision the corporation | | would be required to mine 3,750,000 | | least pay for that amount. | | | “The iron ore properties of the} Great Northern were in 1906 trans- |ferred to Louis W. Hill, James N. Hill and Walter J. Hill as trustees, the 1,500,000 shares of beneficial in- | terest in the trust equal to the | number of shares of stocks held being issued Dec. 2, 1906, to Great} Northern stockholders.” The Hill ore properties include {the Hill mine at Marble, and section 16 here, the Walker pit and part own- jership in the Canisteo and Holman. | The Oliver people started a cut through from the pit this spring to section 16, but for some reason it was not finished. It is said that {the Great Northern will work the Jeases themselves. if new arrange- ‘ments are not made with the — stel corporation. The ore property known as_ the Ark Terrace mine, on which the Oliver holds a lease, is the property of Hetty Green and as the deposits there are known to be very rich, it Second Street and Leland Avenue, Grand Rapids. is reasonable to suppose it will be worked if the lease at the Hill is thrown up. | SUNDAY BIG DAY FOR CATHOLICS (Continued from page one.) the Sacred Heart statue, in super- human form. On the opposite side is the Assumptjon of the Blessed Virgin. This statue is a reproduction from Murillo’s famous pa‘nting. The pulpit is a finely wrought piece of work of the Gothic style of architecture and elaborately carved. Just inside the entrance to the church proper | are two beautiful Holy Angel water fonts. The communion rai] is of pure marble and harmonizes with the oth- er tasteful decorations of the altar. Along the wall, on pedestals, are the stations of the cross, showing the 14 principal incidents in the history of the suffering of our Lord. Passing out, one notices the panel, in bold relief, of the workshop at Nazareth, showing the Divine Child as the pu- pil carpenter; St. Joseph as hs teach- er and the Blessed Virgin as the good mother, busy at the spinning wheel. Two angels are mounted at the opposite edge of the gallery, with trumpets as if pouring forth music on the divine service. Rey. Father Buechler has labored early and late to bring all this about; he has done the work of a dozen men, first here, then there, but always with the interests of St. Joseph’s parish in view, and the people owe him a debt of gratitude that mere words cannot repay. The church reflects credit on the parish, the priest and on the whole commun- ty. The windows are multi-colored, fitted with ventilators, while the pews, 100 in number, are very com- fortable and will hold five persons. In addition, in case of emergency, 100 can be seated in the gallery. The sanctuary is 22x24 feet; sacristy 20x 26; the nade or auditorium, 44x90; the tower is 106 feet high and a full basement runs underneath the church, 11 feet high, which will be used for church fairs and suppers The edifice cost complete a little over $20,000. Cement walks have been laid and the block has been boulevarded. The improvements made on the property this year amount to nearly $30,000 and the total] indebtedness of the parish today is about $8,000. The acoustic properties of the church are very good. The heighth of the ceiling from the floor is 38 feet and the faintest whisper can be heard al] over the huge auditorium. School Edited News © High School || by | The Juniors held a very important meeting Monday evening. A consti- tution was adopted and a new set of officers elected in accordance With the requirements. Active mem- bers are those whose work including that now being taken and success- fully carried, will entitle them to at least twelve credits by the end of the year. The following officers were elected: John Costello, presi- dent; David Rima, vice president; Bessie Kelly, secretary; Grace Mc- Donald, treasurer, The following staff was elected to take charge of the junior department of Pine Needles, the annual high schoo) pub- lication; Richard Fischer, editor; Santini Ponti, cartoonist; Phyllis Mooers ,poet; Carrie Rosholt, artist. All received their report cards Wednesday. My! what smiles and | doleful expressions. The Remington typewriters were given a thorough going over Thurs- day. Several were out of commis- sion, but the expert sent out by the Remington Typewriter Co. soon rem- edied the matter. The president of the school board, Rev. Burgess, of Cohasset, was a vis- itor at the schools Thursday. Eva Stade, Bessie Kelly and Mills won the blue ribbons Ella this month all attaining “A” grade in subjects. Mrs. Stade gave several.fine.selec- tions on the piano Friday morning ; much to the delight of the students. Last Wednesday, the second team took it into their heads that they were capable of defeating the first team. All the boys marched across the river to see the battle. During the first part of the game the sec- ond team made 2 touchdowns. The tide turned during the last half when the first team made 4 touchdowns. When the smoke of battle cleared away the score stood 22 to 10 in fa- vor of the first team The second team is not to be laughed at by any means, however. They have proven that they can hold their own with the best of them. Muriel Fairbanks left Friday after- noon to visit her parents who reside Built to with greatest and safety.

The football game Friday evening with the Hibbing team resulted in a score of 0 to 0. A great deal of protesting was done on both sides, but the game was well played as is evident by the score. This is the strongest team our boys have met and Grand Rapids has reason to feel proud of the result. Much of the protest was over the fact that Schirmer was put out of the game for using indecent language. He had been warned several times that pro- fanity had been strictly tabooed, but paid no attention to the warning. School athletics should be on the highest plane of sportsmanship and Rev. Larsen’s action should be com- mended by all followers of clean sports, HOLD CONVENTION AT MODEL VILLAGE (Continued from page one.) 10:50—Showing children how to prepare jessons, Mrs. F. B.
