double cords of the balsam when the
cutting on this tract is completed.
Joe Jones of Northome was in
Grand. Rapids last Wednesday and
Thursday, attending to several mat
ters of business. Mr. Jones stated
that people in his section of Koo
chiching county anticipate a busy sea
son, as the International Lumber com
pany is preparing to put in a large
number of camps in the territory east
of Northome along the Park Avenue
line, and these camps will afford a
ready market for all the farm pro
ducts which can be grown there this
summer. The settlers will also be able
to market large quantities of timber
at fair priecs, it is expected.
People who want to observe old
Indian customs as exemplified by the
Chippewas will enjoy attending the

The celebration starts the evening of
the 3rd with a squaw dance in the
council house at Inger, and continues
for four days. The big day is July
4, w’hen there will be races, Indian
games, a baseball game, and plenty
of other amusement. All the Indians

and other places not too far away are
expected to attend the celebration.
The Indians in charge are inviting
their white neighbors to visit them
on this occasion and see the dances
and games.
Repairs Are Needed.
A crew of men under the direction
of maintenance man Ole Lee, of the
state highway department, has be in
engaged for several days, tarring
cracks and making needed repairs in
the pavement extending from Grand
Rapids across the range. Several
rough places that developed during
the spring breakup have been repair
ed, and the pavement put in better
shape. Small cracks are filled with
hot tar. Larger holes, when they oc
cur, are filled with an asphalt mix
ture to which fine gravel has been
added, and the whole place thoroughly
tarred, making a permanent patch.
A local business man, seeing the work
being done on the range road, sug
gested that it would be a fine thing
for the iocal street forces to^tar and
pat^h the concrete pavement in the
village, where needed, before the
heavy summer traffic made the worn
places larger.

ation.

customers served during the day, and
a prize awarded to the 13th name

Swan River secured the prize, a pair
of Headlight overalls, while on the
second day Mrs. Fred McLean of
Blackberry won the prize, a pair of
silk hose. A similar prize was award

Gay Colors the Vogue
in Porch Furniture
“Color runs rampant in the ‘sum
mer living room.’ No color is too
brilliant or combination too striking
for porch furniture,” said George F.
Kremer of the Kremer Hardware &
Furniture Co.
“Formerly we sold the dark grays,
browns a n d other drab colors for this
purpose. Now the good sellers are
such shades as Orange and Black,
Chinese Yellow, Mandarin Red and
Nile Green, all of which are very
popular for porch chairs, tables, fern
boxes and other porch furnishings.
“Duco, the new quick-drying finish
for brush application, developed by
the Du Pont company, has had a good
deal to do with the present-day de
mand for color. It is now so easy
for the home owner to refinish with
Duco that everyone is taking an in
terest in the decoration of rooms in
color schemes adapted to his or her
own personality and temperament.”

You can’t Build
Credit
Some people never worry about their credit until
they need to borrow money. But credit must be built
up slowly—you can’t earn a good reputation in a
moment.
The promptness with which you take care of to
day’s obligations determines your future borrowing
power. If you are businesslike about meeting your
obligations, keep a good balance in your bank ac
count, and are careful never to overdraw your ac
count, you establish your credit with the banker
and, through him, with other business men.
Good credit is a priceless asset.
Guard vours well.
