Numerous Hunting Licenses Issued.

Numerous big game hunting
licenses have been issued at the
office of the county auditor since
Saturday and Auditor DoaDe has
been kept rather busy making out
the same. On Saturday 1OS licenses
we're issued, and on Monday IS more
were made out, while on Tuesday II
applicants secured permits to hunt
the feet-footed denizens of the
woods. Yesterday 10 additional
licenses were issued. Last year 2S7
secured licenses, and as many are ex-
pected to be taken out this year.
Three women are among those who
have secured permits to hunt. They
are Mrs. A. E. Hayes Of Princeton,
Elsie Peabody of Foreston. and Mrs.
Frank Burroughs of Isle.
Hunters from this vicinity are
generally attired in Mackinaws Of
flaming red material, and their caps
are not less conspicuous. The pre-
cautions are necessary as. while
there is absolutely no resemblance
between a man and a deer, the woods
are usually literallySflled with mex
perienced seekers of game, who don't
know a rabbit from a bear, and blaze
away every time they hear a twig
move. More care is being exercised
every year, and of late there has
been decided falling off in the
number of casualties during the
hunting season.

Basket Ball Team Was Organized at
Armory Monday EVENING"
~ t<
Much Interest Manifest,
Several Veterans Are Eligible and it
lis Expected That Fast Squad
s "a Will Be Developed. 49,.

J A meeting was held at the Armory
last Monday evening for the purpose
of organizing a basket ball team.
A number of the local enthusiasts
were present and much interest was
manifest, Herman Hofflander, who
successfully piloted last seasons base
ball team, was chosen manager and
will have complete charge of the
business end of the organization. A
captain will be chosen later.
Among the stars of last seasons
squad who are available for the team
are the following: HEM, Morton,
Doane, Vandermaier, Smith and
Wilkes. With these veterans in
readiness prospects seem bright for
winning team. Among others the
following may endeavor to become
members of the team: "Doc" NAL
|1ette, Skahen, Davis, Frank Gould
ing, P. Deml, H. Milbraith and H.
Hofhander.
Practice was started Monday
evening, and good form was dis
played by various members of the
team. However it is not expected
that any games will be scheduled
until the first of the year, and by
that time the locals should be in
winning form.
Last season the Princeton basket
ball team lost only one game. that
being to Mora. Among those de.
feated were Milaca, Anoka and the
South Side independents of Mime.

expected this year and the probabili.
ties are that Princeton citizens will
have an opportunity to witness some
fast and interesting contests.

Prices Remain Unclaimed.

Potatoes continue to move freely
at Princeton, and are being marketed
in large quantities. The quality of
the stock being hauled in is good,
but prices are far from satisfactory
to the farmers. The price ranges
from >25c to SOC per bushel, which is
about what it has been all fall.
The crop report for November places
the total yield of potatoes in this
country at 06,000,O0O bushels. This
is greatly in excess Of the yield last
year, and present indications are
that there will be no material ad-
vance in prices.

Purchase New Organ.

st. Edwards parish has recently
purchased an Estey organ from
Ewings' Music store. This organ is
the only one of it's kind in Princeton
and is especially adapted for de-
votional church music. 1t contains
403 reeds, arranged in six sets, ex-
tending throughout the key board.
There are six stops by which great
variety of tonal effects may be prod
uced. The new instrument under
the skil]ful hands of Miss Edmere
Robarge, the organist. gives very
good satisfaction and will serve the
congregation for many years. .

MEETING A SUCCESS
School Teachers and School Board
Members Hold Interesting and
Instructive Meeting.
An Entertaining Program Was Given
and Meeting at Cove Was
Entirely Enjoyable.

The Northern Mile Laos County
Teachers association and the School
Board convention held in the new
school building at Cove Saturday
was one of the largest held in this
county. Teachers and board men,
bers from Greenbush, Milo, Prince
ton, Bogus Brook, Milaca and every
district in the vicinity of the lake
were in attendance and much in
terest was manifest The school
building has large rooms, but they
were taxed to their capacity to &C
commodate the gathering
The program, which was an ex-
cellent one, was arranged by the
Cove, Wahkon and Onamia schools.
The vocal music by the Wahkon glee
club and the Onamia sextette was
alone worth the long trip to the lake
at least so said those from the
lower part Of the county who at
tended. Commonsense papers were
read by the lady teachers, and short
talks were given by male teachers
and board members. All were enter
tanning and instructive. 1t was just
the kind of meeting to bring out the
needs of the schools, as to the duties
of parents, teachers, and school
boards. All who attended received
many helpful suggestions.
The domestic science class of the
Cove school served dinner in the
basement of the school building.
That they have been taught how to
cook was surely demonstrated to all
who partook of the good things pre-
pared for the occasion.
1t was day we'll spent, and many
Of the older people who have not
visited the lake country since the
early logging days could hardly real
ize that it is the same ground over
which they formerly travelled over
the winding tote roads.
This is the first meeting of this
kind ever held in the lake country
and was SO successful that un.
doubtedly other meetings will be
held in that vicinity in the future.
County Superintendent Ewing is
ever thoroughly awake to what is
needed to better school conditions in
this county and in large measure
the success of this gathering was due
to his efforts. He is ever an enthu.
siastic worker for the schools. In
all probability Wahkon and Onamia
will each secure like convention in
the future.
