Eight or ten girls accompanied him

Ed Peters and Frank Ash received
four cans Of rainbow trout from the

Saturday afternoon, May 8, 1915,
the township spelling contest will be

there are some big doings scheduled for
| this event.
-"Citizen" Gettle was down from
Madison Monday evening to attend
meeting of the school board. We are
| informed that he conceded to the other
members of the board the improperly
| of his continuing to longer hold the Of
flee of clerk and is willing to quit. AS
we recall it, The Reporter has sug-
| gested this action on several previous
occasions.
Two car loads of machinery were
| shipped in here Monday for use on the
town of Albion county highway con-
struction. About three miles of crushed
stone road on the east and west high
ways leading north of Edgerton will be
built this season. The connecting link
| on the east road will complete the ma
cadam from the city limits to the
| churches on Albion Prairie.
The first district convention of
| woman's clubs was held in Belolt on
Tuesday and Wednesday of this week.
! The delegates attending from this city
were Mrs. FL. McInnes and Mrs. w. w.
Morrison of the Monday Club; Mrs. L.
j. Dickinson and Mrs. Cal Wanamaker
of the Culture Club, and Mrs. A. T.
Stewart and Miss Madge Wilson of the
New Century Club. Mrs. McInnes
made short report of the Edgerton
clubs to the convention.
No town has better asset than a
good band very truly says the Fenni-
more Times. Edgerton has always had
soft spot in it's heart for our band and
has helped to keep itin first-class shape
despite many discouraging things that
happen in all towns to disrupt such or
CARNATIONS. Whenever it has needed
| substantial encouragement from our
citizens it has been Forthcoming and
| they have rendered value received in
return. Our weekly concerts during
the summer each year have proven
drawing cards and we would hardly
know how to get along without them.
! What is nicer or brings more people to
| town during the summer months than
these concerts. The boys are already
organized for another season, having
rehearsals with Mr.. ALT Watson of
| Stoughton as leader, so lets all pull to-
| gether for the band and keep it going.
| Doubtless your subscription for the
coming seasons concerts will be solic-
| tied soon, so let everybody be prepared
| to help.
