Farmer Flows Up Horns on
Farm Near Eagle River
This Fall-Must Have Been
Moose Country Some Day.

If the finding of antlers from a
moose on his farm southwest of
the village a couple miles, is any
evidence that moose inabired
this country at some early date,
then we can lay their destruction
or disappearance to other terri
tory to their own wanderings
and not to the pot hunters that
inhabited this territory years
back when the lumberjack and
riverpig was in his clement
cannot even lay it at the door of
the single weavers who also
are lost race in this neck O. the
woods.
Last fall in clearing up a piece
of ground near his home on Mud
creek a little ways out of the
county capital, Farmer John
Storm ploughed up a greater
portion of the antlers Of a moose,
somewhat in a bad state of de-
cay, but still recognizable as that
of that breed of game. Now the
question with John is whether
the whole carcass is still farther
down in the ground in a good
state of preservation, like those
OF mammals to be found in glaci-
al fields in the frozen north, or
whether some fellow years ago
discarded them as hepassed thru
these diggins on his way to bet
ter pastures. However if Farm
er Storm does find thecarcass in
tact, there is no reason in the
world but that he should be
made to divide. Hoover hasn't
quit entirely vet.

tain Knitted Articles.

A call has been issued from
national headquarters for certain
knitted articles for the use of

FLAMBEAU GOES OVER
Tops Its Quota in Drive for
Relief of Starving Women
and Children.

The Armenian and Syrian Re
lief Drive for saving starving
women and babes, is to be staged
in Villas county March 1S.
The work is under the direction
of the chairman of the towns in
the county. with Rev. w. ].
Davies as county chairman and
D. c. Menefee, treasurer.
The Nations quota is thirty
million dollars. Villas county's
quota is only $500. The "top"
is not high, and to 60 over will
not endanger our financial lives,
The four million people including
100000 widows and orphans
who reside in the lands that gave
birth and propagated the Chris
tian religion are looking with
longing eyes to generous Ameri-
ca to sustain them until their
own industry will bring crops to
their barns.
We are proud to point to the
United States agents who distri-
butte food, clothing, seed and
other necessaries to these people,
for large percentage consist OF
religious missionaries of various
Christian denominations who
enlisted for this work when it
was impossible for themat to carry
on their strictly religious work.
These have brought the informa-
ton to the government of the
true state of life under the Turk
ISL regime and the President and
his advisors have set their seal
of approval on the great drive
which shall bring relief TO the
homeless and means for stan ting
anew their life of industry.
We are pleased to note that
already Flambeau has responded
with S41,0O, going over it's
quota in fine shape.

Putting Their Town on Map.

Donaldson-State Line, the com
bination villages up in the north
end of Villas county believes that
publicity is a paying proposition
to any community, evidently
having saw the benefits to be de-
rived bv its use in the recent
drives during the war. However,
w. S. Bates, owner of the only
store up there has authorized
the running of a publicity adver-
tisement for his bailiwick for the
year 1919 in the News.

HUNTED in GERMANY
Soldier Boys Have Real Big
Woods Deer Hunting in
Enemy Land.

Unable to be home during the
deer season, it made no difference
to, the North Woods Yank across
the seas, for he used his American
privilege at the FIRST opportunity
even if he was in Germany and
minus deer license.
The report is that John Per
kins of Woodruff and Frank
Towers of Minocqua, now with
the army of occupation in Ger
many, enjoyed a real deer hunt
in one of the Kaiser's game pie
serves. What the average Yank
don't think of, isn't worth the
game.

Soldiers and Sailors
Homecoming

The idea is being advanced
for Villas county to give her re-
turning soldiers and sailors a
rousing homecoming some time
in May or June.
By that time it is expected
that all of Villas county's fighting
Yanks Will have returned home,
and we then can show them the
welcome they deserve.
Dropping in one by one I'M
expectedly, it is impossible to
give them proper welcome
home.
Talk this over and have every
thing arranged when the proper
time arrives.

WAS IN THE BIG SCRAP
Manbeck Tells of the Finish
as He Saw it on the Muese
Sector.

William Manbeck writes H. J.
Oberholtzer from Siershahn, Ger
many, under date of Jan. 21st,
and tells of the final drive as it
was handed out to the Germans
on the Sedan Argonne-Mues
sector by the Yanks.
Manbeck's hiking since fighting
ceased has taken him over hun
dreds of miles of territory with
very few stops. He was right
on the front when fighting stop
ped.
Manbeck was the first Villas
county boy to enlist when war
was declared. He isin the Third
Army of Occupation.

Earl, who was just six, had new
baby sister. The doctor had stopped
to see his mother and Earl came into
the room. A big smile came on
Ear's face. for it was the first time
he had a chance to talk to the doctor
since the new baby had arrived.
He took advantage of it and his
first question was, Doctor, what did
You charge for the baby sister,
The doctor smiled bit and told
him, ''Why, it was SIS for this girl,
but if it was boy it would be $25."
Earl said nothing more, but as the
doctor left the house he followed
him out to his car When no one
else was around he said: Doctor, I
have $12 worth of Thrift stamps,

trade that girl for boy would be
willing to give you the $ls worth of

Once Prominent British Lawyer ana
ST. tesman Is Ending His Days
in the Poorhouse.

In poorhouse in Yorkshire,

was one of the most widely known
men of the island. Through his own
efforts he rose from the position OF
an Office boy in law Office to knight
hood and a seat in the British par

of the most distinguished lawyers in
the north of England, and for many
years handled the legal affairs of the
poor of his district. But, on his
election to parliament, he began to
neglect his private affairs. His law
practice suffered, and so, last fall, he
found himself heavily indebted and
with little income.
Then he retired from parliament,
in an effort to retrieve his fortune,
but worry over his financial affairs
had Slapped his vitality and he suf-
fered nervous collapse. 1t became
necessary for him to 60 into bank
ruptcy, with liabilities of $4,000.
Friends placed him in convalescent
hospital and betrayed his expenses
for a time, but this assistance end
ing, Sir Luke was transferred to the

his country, spends his hours in
