Buy S. worth of goods at Fish
ers and get a Christmas tree free
Two of our Milbank boys were
apprehended the. first of the
week for a very serious offense.
These boys. from what we have
heard of similar offenses in
which they have been engaged,
have gotten fairly started on
what will prove to them hard
road to travel. Out of regard
for their families and in the
hope that the boys may right
about face, the law was not in
, voked in their cases, and for th e
, saale reason we refrain from Civ
ing the names of the culprits.
1t is hoped that the mercy shown
the boys in this instance may re-
!, suit in a change of conduct on
their part in the future.
The game of football played
between the Wheaton and Mil
bank high school mines in this
city last Saturday afternoon re-
suited in a score of 10 to II in
.. favor of the visiting team. A
!. mum Der of the boys were quite
badly bruised in the game, but
Notwithstanding this fact al
: claimed to have the time of their
lives. The Milbank boys play a
game with the Appleton team
: Thanksgiving day at the bal
grounds. Bear this in mind and
, everybody attend, as this will
probably be the last game of the
season. Everyone shout for the
: M. H. S. boys.
, The presentation of "He1
!, Double Life" with Miss Laura
q Frankenfield as Mercy Merrick.
;, and St. George Dagelen as JUL
an Gray, is generally conceded
, to have been one of the bes1
. things in the theatrical line that
T has been given in Milbank
q Both Miss Frankenfeld and Mr.
= Dagelen are actors Of more than
ordinary ability, and their pre-
sentations of characters clearly
e indicated that they had made
y a study of their work, and Wer,
l. able TO bring out with artistic
= touch the finer points in their in
ulYlQual roles.
