Policeman Opheim:: II thought the
Watertown moving pictures at the
Idle Hour were fine Couldn't have
been better photography believe
it will be big advertisement for
Watertown when it is shown on the
circuit:
hunting chickens one day last week
with DR.. Spencer and we got into a
bunch that got up pretty wild. When
the dogs came down on them we jump
ed out of the auto and took few
shells in our pockets. We fired away
at them and succeeded in bagging
three and were on our way over to
the auto when the dogs came down
again in the grass. We walked up
behind the dogs and at least twenty
five chickens got up one and two at a
time and there we stood looking at
them with not shell in our guns.
We stood there and said, See 'em
60 We were too disgusted to even
cuss. However, we watched them
down mad soon each of us got the
limit"
N. J. Barrett: II do not think the
democratic tariff bill has benefited
any one with the exception of the
southern states. If the democrats
had taken the republican tariff bill and
cut it right in two in the middle then
they would have been revising the
tariff downward"
Ed. Short, of Florence: FLORENCE
is fine-getting better every day. We
will soon have town that has as
many modern inconvenience as Wa
tertown."
DR.. c. w. Stutenroth: 81 do not
think that the moving pictures of Wa
tertown fatter our city. I see that
only those who paid SIS each were
given an opportunity to show their
business places 1t is my opinion that
this reel sent out over the country is
more of a damage to the city than
anything else. 1t makes Watertown
appear to be city of about one thou
sand inhabitants. The pictures are
clean and nice and the lake scenes are
beautiful but l think there should
llave ben different arran gements made
about taking public places and street
scenes"
Mrs. Frances P. Hopkins|: PER-
haps you noticed that little article
in the daily last week regarding my
son Vaud's ability as chef and house
keeper. There is little secret about
that which the general pubblic is not
aware Of will tell you how Vaud
came to be such good cook. al
ways made it a rule at my house that
the boy who did not want to go to-
Sunday school must stay at home and
prepare tine meal for the other child
rem who did attend. That is how
Vaud became familiar with the culi-
nary art
City Commissioner Wiersbeck: "The
city has ordered sweeping machine
for the paved streets and they will
be kept clean. It will be one of those
rotary sweepers and will be propelled
by horses"
John Noodle: II was very well
pleased with that big double page ad.
in the Saturday News last week. til
was the best ad ] have ever had put
into type in Watertown.''
Oscar Egge: 81 have been install
ling a number of electric lighting
plants in farmers homes in this and
adjoining counties. The farmer can
have things just as modern in the
way Of a home as the city man now
days if he is a mind to-
Frank Paulis, Of the Paulis Dry
Goods company: "Yes, sir, we arel
going to enlarge our store. We will
occupy the whole building and expect
to have some changes made In the
front of the store and an elevator In
stalled. am glad to see the other
dry goods stores enlarging and NOV
ing into new quarters. 1t all has a
tendency to bring people to Water
town to trade. Say, there is one thing i
about the Saturday News and that is
that you do not bore people to ad- |
vertise in your paper. / notice If at
fellow wants an ad in your paper
that he has to speak for his space
several days before you issue the pa

the Riley flats are full and that there
are many people waiting for some one
to move out SO that they can move in.
