An itching of the nose in our
grandmother's days gave indica-
tion that a stranger would appear
before many hours had passed.
Decker, an early writer, says;
I'VE shall have guests today, my
nose itcheth."' An old English
superstition was to the effect that
if the nose itched, it was sign
that the person would be vexed
or kissed by a fool before the day
was ended. With the Germans
it was a sign that one would
drink wine with a friend.

not claim to be a licensed auction

with interest to a lecture by Mr..

it was a pleasure to be outside.
Mr.. Bay spoke about the develop

SWAN LAKE IMPROVEMENT
ASSOCIATION

On last Friday evening, Turner
County citizens from Parker, vi
borg and Hurley, met at Hurley to
consider ways and means of making
Swan Lake a permanent body of
water. The meeting was called to
order by John Widlon, who stated
the object of the meeting. On
motion Mr.. Widlon was made chair
man of the meeting and j. G. Gil
bert secretary. State Came War
den I'll. S. Hedrick was present and
was called on for views of the
matter. Mr.. Hedrick stated that
the plan of filing the lake from
Turkey Creek was feasible and also
stated that he thought that the
state would give financial aid to the
project. After remarks by L. II.
Fleeger and DIR. Kyes of Parker, and
Geo. Nelson and others from Viborg
it was moved and seconded to or
ganize the Swan Lake Improvement
Association. Motion carried. Fol
lowing are the officers: President,

den. L. L. Fleeger, Parker; Secre-
tary, J. G. Gilbert, Hurley; treasur-
er, w. S. Kyes, Parker; directors,

Spring Valley, S. NJ Goodhope,
Swan Lake, Jas S Thompson, Cen

Membership fee was fixed at $500
and nearly all present joined. It is
expected that the membership will
be brought up to at least 800 as
practically everyone in the county
is interested in the project, and tits
certain that we would all be bene-
fitted by the making of Swan Lake
into a fine body of living water.
Everybody join the association,
everybody boost ard the project is
bound to be a success.
