wife, who had been spending a three
weeks vacation with their daughter
Mrs. j. M. Allen, and family in
Michigan, returned home last Satur-
day at noon. Mr.. V. S. Pease, who
has had charge of the business and
editorial departments of the paper
during the publisher absence, left
for Baraboo the same afternoon to
spend Sunday with his family and

freshed to his labors and with a keen
appreciation of fact that there is no
better place nor finer people than are
found in Lancaster, Grant county,
Wisconsin.
