Camping Clubs

The percentage Of middle class families
able to leave the large cities for the summer
or even for a month, is comparatively small,
yet at no season of the year do mothers
find themselves confronted by SO serious
an aspect OF the ubiquitous boy question.
Particularly is this true Of those In mod
crate circumstances. but possessed Of a keen
sense OF their children's rights.

boy and mother, hospitable grandmothers
and aunties on farms seem to be growing
fewer at an alarming rate. And here Il Is
plain that the camping club offers a place
Of refuge to the city boy.

Last summer number of Fayette
county men organized a company and
incorporated buying some $500, 1000
worth of real estate. One of the in
corporators was Won Rolf who was
made agent for the sale Of these lands
to settlers. He has sold $4,000 and has
failed to turn in the proceeds. The
other incorporators learn that he re-
ceived $17, 900 for managing the sale to
them and the result is suit pending
in Ramsey county district court for
an accounting by Won Rolf and to dis
solve the corporation. Won Rolf only
had $500 stock in the company. If
he loses his stock he will still be ahead
on commission over $4,000.
Cresco has lately been inflicted with
two of the sbummiest" shows OF the
road, or rather were, for the first one,
Rusco & Hollands Uncle Tom closed
at Monona as the show was so rotten
the colored boys could not stand it
and left the show. Then Billy
Bennett blew in and the last was
worse than the first. The musical
part of the show was very fair, but
with the exception of Geo. Lickteig,
a Cresco boy, and Belle Bennett,
there was no one in the company that
could be called an actor, and the play
was simply atrocious, having no merit
in either lines, situations or rendition.
After pulling the public's leg for 35c
to see their (in the main) wretched
performance they proceeded to hold
them up for 10 cent concert and
vaudeville entertainment which was
rather ahes d of the theatrical part of
the entertainment. Cresco interest
was somewhat aroused as Mr.. Lick
teig was with the company and the
unanimous opinion is that he did ex-
ceedingly well and is far too good for
the Bennett combination.
In these days of the quick inter
change of intelligence it is a hard row
that poor theatrical companies have
to hoe. No sooner has bad perform
ance been given than it is heralded
abroad by the press, and the company
perpetrating it is soon sunk into
oblivion. From the critical notices
