Mrs. b. T. Brainerd, Miss Cleo

Mrs. P. NJ Brown and son, enjoyed
an auto ride through the country last
Sunday afternoon. They visited Exc
land and Radisson, the great Arpin
Dam and called on several of the
Exland farmers returning to the home
of Mrs. Gordan Fowler in tire even
ing, where they enjoyed the hospi-
tality of the hostess, likewise the
good supper served them on their
return. The writer had not been
through this country for four years
and her surprise was great to notice
the improvement which had been made
all through this northern country dur
ing these past few years. Excellent
roads have been built and are kept
in good condition, which is indeed
boon to the many automobilists who
pass through this country every day.
New houses have been built, land
cleared and advancement made on
every hand. One cannot but wonder
that the people from the outside are
not grasping the opportunity which
is now theirs, of acquiring some of
this land and beginning home for
themselves where the poor man who
has energy and thrift can provide
for himself a home which he can en-
10y when he is old and unable to
work. Too much cannot be said OF
this Northern Wisconsin and every
one should put forth every effort to
make it the prosperous country that
it should be and bring to it every
means of it's advancement.
