First Two Weeks of June Show Up:Very Well Against The Local Bunch. If Duluth has-any more high, class amateur base ball teams we wish they would send them along. A short ‘time ago the boys here trimmed the great Adams team three out of four games, and last Sunday the highly touted Oak Hall aggregation meta similar fate in twe games. The Duluth team did not only find it impossible to connect with the delivery of the home pitchers, but played a de- cidedly frazzly game inthe field. Bentz and Hicks opposed Gilli- land and Nelson in the opening game, and while the work of the visitors was fair enough, the sup- port accorded them was so poor that the session resulted in a 13 to 4 victory for Grand Rapids. In the second game Lofberg took the place of Bentz, Hicks remain- ing at the receiving end, while Al- der and Dumoe were at the points for the visitors. Nine to three in favor of Grand Rapids, was the sum-up of this session. The locals had one of their batting streaks with them, and it was impossible for them to stop once they jgot the habit. Both Grand Rapids pitchers were| in good form, Bentz particularly distinguishing himself. Jerry Hicks fehind the bat played his usual consistent game, and all the boys acquitted themselves creditably. Bentz.struck out 11 men, Gilliland five, Lofberg six and Alder six. 4 | A feature of the matinee was the batting of Benton and Farrell of the Rapids team, the former get- ting three doubles in the first game and one in the second, and the later garnering two doubles ‘and two singles in six times up. Grand Rapids People Save Money. | We were agreeably surprised in a reent conversation with Mr. Bol- ter, cashier of the First State j8ank, to learn that 600 persons here in Grand Rapids have savings accounts with this one bank. The first’ of June marked the end af a six months interest period on these savings accounts and the de- positors were $373.16 interest on their savings for the past half year. The growth of the First State Bank’s savings department has ‘broke by the state, will be of- fered for sale. The tract is ap- praised at $17.50 per acre. At the same time 120 acres, adjoining the tract, appraised at $5.00 per acre will be offered for sale.In addi- dion to these tracts the lands in the re r list will be offered. July Second monthly meeting of board of county commissioners. July 30—Warrants*for claims al- lowed at the second annual meet- ing of the county»board will be due and payable. July 31—The list of lands to be sold for taxes at the annual sale of lands forfeited to the state, by reason of the non-payments of the 1908 and prior years taxes, to be held August 11th, 4913, and to be on file inthe auditor’s office. Sometime about the middle of the month warrants for the June apportionment of 1943, and prior wear taxes, will be forwarded to the school, town and village treas- urers, and notices of the amounts erecited to each fund will also fe sent to the school, town -and village clerks. July 31—During the month the citizens of each organized town in the county should get togetherand determine the location of the road in the town that will be most ad- vantagious to all the people of the town, to the end that intelligent aetion can be had in the matter ef establishing trunk line roads roads throughout the county. keen both steady and rapid. And while the young people of town make up the majority of those who thus save their money, there is no age limit placed on those | who wish to avail themselves of | this banking privilege. Mr. Bolfer says that several chil- dren have become the possessors of a savings account before they were a a week old, through the | thoughtfulness of happy parents, and many children yetin school are laying the foundation of fu- ture careers by banking the small sums they earn at odd times. But the best savers are the young men and women who are earning tkeir own living by holding down sobs. Not a few of these thrifty in- dividuals have the saving habit down to a science. They adjust their living expenses to their wages so as to be able to bank some part of every month’s earn- ir gs. + By doing a little mental arith- metic, for instance, it is readily realized that five or ten dollars banked every month soon amounts into hundreds within a very few ‘years. May the time hasten when every man, woman and child in Grand Rapids will have » savings account, thereLy disvourtirg the uncertain- ties of tuture want cr needs. Let’s all get the saving habit.

Several farm- ers are receiving checks this week who have not before been patrons. of Cohasset, Arthur Ranger, Wm. Cronkhite, Fred Yost, W. E, Rich- ardson and Big Fork Mercantile Co. Over a ton of butter fat was received and disposed of during these two weeks and the cream- ery was able to pay more for but- ter fat than it received for but- ter. As the volume of business grows larger this will always be true and the creamery can pay sev- eral cents more for butter- fat than the market price of the best dairy butter. The creamery butter during the period brought an aver- age price of 26c per pound and patrons received 39c for butter fat in milk; 32 cents for butter fat in ‘special cream and 27 cents for first grade. The following received more than $15 for thefirst two weeks of June: J. D. Hinegardner, $28.93; John Fraser, $57.14; Neil Mullens, £39.01; Mrs. J. V. Moore, $17.14; N. C. X. Farm, $33.73; W.

JEFFERSON'S: LAST WORDS He Explained the Influence of the Declaration of independence. INE days before his death Thomas Jefferson was asked |} to write a sentiment for the forthcoming fiftieth anniversary of the Declaration of Independ- ence, the day of jubilee on |} which, by a singular coincidence, he was destined to die. “Very much,” reply. “But I do not complain. I know I should fare better if our general had the means of getting supplies. They say, however, that in a few days we shall have a fight, and then I shall take care to get a pair of shoes.” The First Anniversary. The first anniversary of the Fourth of July was celebrated in every Ameri- can town, hamlet and force or fleet that was able to do so with bonfires, illuminations, regular salutes and indi- vidual feux de joie. Oration, prayer and praise prepared the hearts of men for their generally decorous if some what noisy and varied demonst which made up the general holiday. ~~ AN OLD TIME FOURTH. Indians Celebrated by Wearing Flags For Breechclouts. One of the most remarkable old time celebrations of the Fourth of July that ever took place in-New York state was by a woman who witnessed it: “It was in 1799, and it happened in the old Indian valley of Oquago, now ‘Windsor, in Broome county, N. Y. Before the Revolutionary war our val- ley was the famous residence of an described as follows many -years ago!

Will coming years see greater cele- brations and rejoicings? "The methods of celebrating doubtless will be modi- fied. Perhaps less ringing of bells and noise of cannon may attend it, but the enthusiasm of the people is still un- mistakable, and in whatever form it finds expression, so long as the Fourth of July is celebrated with unabated zeal and our children are fired by it with the same pa hich ani- mated their fathers forefa- thers, our nation is safe.
