Fine Home

Bert Harrington and family
moved into their new home on
the corner Of third Street and
Central auenue the first of the
week and are nicely settled in
their new place. The Har-
ringtons have one Of the finest
residences in the city. Mr..
Harrington was the chief
designer and there was not Q
nook or corner in the entire
place that escaped his attention
with the result that every bit of
room has been utilized to good
advantage. The lighting fixtures
were all the nandiwork of Mr..
Harrington, being made mostly
of hammered copper, which for
beauty cannot be excelled by
the best that the market affords.
It is home that the Harrlng-
tons can be proud of.

Saw the Kaiser

Charles Moland. who lives on
a farm in the town Of Wash burn
is one person in this vicinity
who has seen the Kaiser-now
plain Bill Hohenzollern. Mr..
Moland says that the Kaiser
was on a visit to King Oscar OF
Norway when he first saw the
German Emperor. He was IN
company with the king of Nor
way and Sweden and was in
front of the Public square. He
says as he remem bers him he
was about five feet and seven
inches tall and small of body,
small in comparison to King
Oscar, beside whom he was
walking. Mr.. Moland says that
the children of Christiana placed
flowers in front Of the two walk
ing monarchs. Had they known
as much about the Kaiser as
they do today they probably
would have thrown brickbats
instead of flowers.

BY Ed. nj. Heermans.

One of the greatest pleasures of my
life has been my return visit to
Washburn-a visit that I have PLAN
ned ever since / left here a year ago.
There is no explaining why a man
.has this feeling Iof attachment toward
one particular town. But l was so

many warm friends, rs did my family.
that Washburn is really Home" in
every sense.
Since returning, one particular
question has been asked of ne by al
most every one. 1t is this: 'What
do you think of Washburn today?I

provements that have been made. |
share in the enjoyment of course-for
I predicted that Washburn had a
future, in every speech and every ar
ticle that l sponsored while here for
a year as secretary of the CONNER
cial Club.
"What do you think of the future
for Washburn now that the war is
over?'' That question has always
followed the other one and sup
posed to answer it as we'll as any one
man can count the future by estimat-
ing present opportunity.
In the first place it is a mistake to
become pessimistic over the. fact that
reconstruction will now put the big
du Pont works on a peace basis. This
vast corporation has builded and inn
proved here-expending hundreds
and hundreds of thousands of dollars
in and about Washburn-not for the
immediate present but for all timea
Corporations do not throw money
away without any regard to invest
ment economy.
But Washburn was enjoying abnor-
NAL times and like all other towns
in the country depending mainly up
on munitions plants, must now re-
sumo the normal conditions but it
is not justifiable to become ''panicky"
or pessimistic over the fact.
Washburn now has the increased
wealth that this great wave of pros
perity brought to the town and by
united action of the business Interests
can invest some of this wealth in
new industries just as stable and
Just as permanent as the box factory
and other smaller industries which
have been operating here long time,
MY friends in Washburn have heard
this from me before and heard it for
year, in season and out of season
and perhaps they wearied OF hearing
it.
But why the question then, which

Hundreds of Deer Hunters Leaving
for the Woods
Deer are Said to be Plentiful but Hunt
ers are Praying for Tracking
Snow.

During the past three days
hundreds of deer hunters have
been leaving for the hunting
grounds of Bayfield, county get
ting their camps in readiness
for the opening of the season
which opened today. The hunt
ers have been going in every
direction and the woods from
south to the north and from the
east to the western part of the
county will be crowded with
hunters.
Hunters should remember
that there is a special ruling by
the State Conservation commits
sion as to deer which may be
killed in Bayfield, county. Hunt
ers may kill and transport one
mature deer of either sex but
faWns must not be killed.
The number of hunting
licenses issued by the County
Clerk this season will fall way
short of last year on account of
the number of hunters who are
in the service.
Hunters in going into the
woods should use the greatest
carein the handling of firearms
in order to avoid accident. Bull
lets will be flying far and wide
and the hunter should be sure
that he is shooting at game and
not any moving object in the
brush. Care should also be
taken around the hunting camps.
Bayfield, county has had but
few accidents during the
past two years and the hunters
should seek to maintain this
good reputation.

How Washburn Looks to E. M. Hermans

which must take their chance in COM
petitive market. There is no COM
petition. If this company proceeds
here-and Washburn should back it
up with every ounce Of it's energies
and every dollar it can spare-it is
question only of getting contracts
for moderate sized ships and build
ing them according to specifications.
The profit is fixed for the cost can
be safely figured in advance. This
has been demonstrated fully in the
East and far West. 1t is not a
gamble. / have learned that the
Anchor Shipbuilding Co. has some
excellent local men on its directorate
to safeguard Washburn investors
interests and certainly the officers and
promoters who have come in here
have demonstrated that they know
their business.
So l say, let Washburn turn to ship
building as she should turn to other
industries. Foreign countries like
Norway and Sweden want ships and
have the cash to pay for them. The
United States will have home, and
foreign markets and there will be
more orders for vessels during the
next ten years of great prosperity in
this country-than she can fill.
No risk-comparatively speaking.
Here are the orders for ships within
the resources of the local shipyard.
Here are the specifications. Export
labor will soon be available in abun-
dance. Materials are at hand. The
location here on the bay cannot be
excelled. Stop worrying about the
present and future-let Washburn
get down to business and stop talking
future hard times. That is the sure
way to bring hard times -inviting
them by hesitation and by discussing
adversely as possibility.
l trust that whe 1 return on an
other visit a year from now that the
Anchor Shipbuilding Co. will be
launching a new ship every month.
There is money in it.-you now have
the organization. Just grab the op-
portunity, apply gooc business rules
to the management and reap the. re-
ward

Carl Anderson Begins Excavation
for Fine New Building
Expects to Rush Work Through. Was
Delayed on Account
of War.

Carl Anderson of Oberon, N.
D. has a large crew of men at
work excavating for a new
brick building which he intends
to erect on lots on Bayfield,
street between 1st and End
avenues west.
It was Mr.. Anderson's inten-
tion to begin the erection OF
the building some time ago but
his plans were upset when the
government ruled that no more
buildings could be erected dur
ing the war without first having
obtained the permission of the
State Council of Defense. Mr..
Anderson made application for
permission to construct the
building and although his ap-
plication was approved by the
local board it was turned down
by the State Council of Defense.
AS soon as the armistice had
been signed by Germany the
Government permitted the con-
struction of buildings under
$25, 900 cost and as soon as this
was learned by Anderson he
Immediately let the contract for
the construction Of the building.
1t is understood that this will
be a two story brick building 25I
x 100 feetin size and that it will
be modern in every way. Mr..
Anderson will SO construct the
building that he can add to it
when ne desires and this will
probably be done when the lease
of the property adjoining is ter
minated.
Mr.. Anderson is convinced OF
the future of Washburn and he
is going to back up his judgment
with this fine building. He is
now residing at Oberon, N. D.
but expects to return to this
city to make his future home.

sion Plan and has been successfully
operated in fifty cities without loss

nit going into details.
Less than year ago L advocated
shipbuilding for Wasnburn. Since
then have learned something
about ship-building and since Wash
burn is about to undertake ship
building through the newly organized
Anchor Shipbuiiding Co., perhaps my
old friends here would like to hear
something about shipbuIlding. 1t will
not take long and with permission of
the editor, will do so.
This war has put the United States
on the map as maritime nation as
nothing else could do. The demand
for merchant marine has just started.
The subject is SO vast, SO big, that
we can hardly comprehend the situa-
ton. But just think, that when we
went to war-yes wnen the war be-
gan in Europe, the United States was
helpless and had to depend upon
foreign bottoms and ship her vast ex-
ports abroad under foreign flags.
This is all changed. The devasa-
tation in Europe has done two i'm
mense things and those are: % to
create huge demand for merchan-
disc of all sorts in the war-torn coun-
tries and (2) to open huge new mar
kets in the neutral countries. The
United States must furnish the goods
and to a large extend furnish the
vessels in which to transport them.
Europe will recall her bottoms and
we must supply our own.
What is the answer? Build ships!
Along the Hudson river every foot
of harbor land at all fit for ship
yards was grabbed up by new and old
ship-building companies and the Hud-
son river valley experienced new
and novel prosperity. At Kingston
we could not get enough frontage.
Men whom / knew WE'LL who had
never had experience in shipbuilding,
went into the game and have come
out of it rich and will still become
richer.
1t is a simple proposition much
simpler than manufacturing products
