Moo Domt DARE "Tell KlKA THAT Sheriff and Mrs. Emil Nelson of Two Harbors, accompanied by Mrs. Victor Johnson who has been visit ing them for the past several weeks, drove to Grand Marais Saturday. Mr and Mrs. Nelson left for home Sun day and spent Sunday nigst at "43" and Monday night at some other point along the road- They reached home Tuesday afternoon. The north shore of Lake Superior is engulfed in a blizzard which has been raging for the past several days. Traffic on the road to Duluth is tied up. The last mail came Sat urday night. The ice in the east bay has gone out and the harbor ice is all broken up, interrupting the putting up of ice by some of the local merchants and fishermen, who had crews at work filling their ice houses. As we go to press the snow is still flying, driven by an off-land wind. This kind of a winter helps to demonstrate the necessity of a road following closely the lake shore. Bids are to be opened and the contract let March 9 for the first lap of new permanent highway on the north shore, from Cross River to little Marais,«a distance of 14.5 miles- When the road is built ac cording to plans, it will be a lasting benefit to us and our posterity.

J. WALKER SOME INFLUENCES THESE days of doing big things, which cannot bo dom properl.v without putting into tliem the hard est kind of work, accompanied with undeviating concentration of thought, there is a disposition among certain classes of employees to allow disturb ing influences to belittle their effi ciency. Trifling as these retarding breaks may seem to the young man or wom an who is inclined to entertain them, if not overcome, they soon become formidable barriers in blocking the way to progress. The thoughts of last night's rollick ing play or gay dances, as they eonie trooping before you in the morning when you take your pJace at your desk, may unfit you for the day's work. Under their influence your mind wanders, eludes control and pkn.es you at a positive disadvantage with the man or woman who is able to think clearly and make every stroke count. Columns of figures refuse to prove themselves words are misspelled: hands tremble and nerves tingle. In your dismay you wonder what has come over your usual placidity. At the next desk is a worker twice as much in earnest and not one-quar ter so flurried. This timidity of yours is proof of the presence of disturbing influences, which are digging pitfalls about your feet and leading you blindfolded to the brink. The very flexibility and ease with which this is done, fail to arouse your suspicion until in some way or another you sense that you are standing on a precarious base, in imminent danger of toppling over. And thousands of others like you. through disturbing influences, are standing helpless at the brink, discon certed and miserable. Yesterday you and they were cer tain of the future. Today everything is in doubt, sim ply because of the lack of sufficient will-power to drive frivolous thoughts from the mind and to step down on the solid ground of common sense. And these same disturbing influ ences have been fooling with mankind since the foundation of the world! (Copyright.) Virginia Lee SAB.e ip He jg.

The reason for only a part of the moon's disc being visible to the earth is that tha east and west sides he come alternately visible this is called .he moon's longitudinal libration. The libration in latitude arises from the moon's axis not being perpendicu'ar to her orbit, in consequence of which a part of her surface round pole is visible during one-half and a corresponding portion round the South pole during the other half of lier rev olution in her orbit the libration in latitude is about 6 degrees, 41 minutes.
