MORE LIKE GODS THAN TREES
Impressive Tribute Paid by English
Poet to the Giant Redwoods
OF California.

John Masc0eld the English poet
contributed the following impression
Of the giant trees OF California 10 the
Reveille, Il new paper devoted 10 dis.
abled sailors and soldiers: "They are
not like trees; they are Ike spirits
The glens in which they grow are not
like pluccs; they are like hauutS Of
cenluurs or of the gods. The trees
rise up with dignity power and mai
csty, ns though they had been there
forever They are the oldest living
things. Even the young ones were
two thousand or three thousand years
old. and many of these grew from the
visible ruins Of others, which may
have been supllngs seven thousand
years ago. Sometimes in cathodwls
one feels the awe and the majesty Of
columns. These columns were more
impressive than anything OF stone ;
these columns were alive. They were
more like gods thun anything ! have
ever seen. They seemed to be think
ing. one felt that presently they
would march 10 wipe out everything
mean or base or petty here ON earth.
The stars shone about their heads like
chaplets,"

Notes From MiShicOt
Manitowoe County Boys Enjoy
Pleasant Life at DEVILS Island
Auditorium Resort at Fox
Lake, Wis.---Famous Sum-
nner Resort.


Two Nisbieot bows, Glynden 5. Tetz-
laa and Sidney Steltzer just returned
from a two weeks outing at Devils
Isle Auditorium resort at Fox Lake
Wis. where they stayed with their rel
atiyes. Mr.. J. j. Schumacher and fam
ily of Beaver Dam.
Mr.. Schumacher is a sportsman ana
camper of statewide repute
After spending a few days at Nil
waukce attending the NJ. +. 4. the
bows departed for Beaver Dam where
they were joined by their aunt and
uncle Mr.. and Mrs. j. j. Schumacher
and daughters Lucille and Virginia.
From there the party proceeded by
means of auto TO Fox Lake, which is
ten miles distant. Here Mr.. Schu-
macher owns summer home on
Devils Isle. This island is located near
thc east central shore of the lake and
the party reached it in yacht at mid
night. After partakng of light lunch
everybody retired for refreshing
sleep ON The ycranda of the resort
homc-a pretty and attractive bunga-
low
The greater part of the first day was
spent. by the boys, in exploring the
island which was found to be covered
with wild flowers of almost every y'Hi-
cly, trees. and yerdant foliage, making
very charming scenery n their esti-
nation this island embraces approx
malely a square mile of lano
Most of their remaining time VAS
taken up in varied forms of outdoor
sports and amusement such as canoe
ing, yachting, swimming fishing, play
ing at tennis, dancing, etc.
The boys also had the unique cXpe-
ricncc of rowing to the beautiful vii
lagc of Fox Lake, distance of four
miles, noted as the center of the social
activities of the lake rcsorlers. Neither
of the bows had scarcely had any prevl-
ous experience in rowing a boat and
the trip proved rather novel and ex-
lrcmcly exciting especially when they
found that they had driflcd from their
directed course and found themselves
IN the midst Of rough and PREACHER
ous sea, later made known to them az
Dead Mans Point, the danger point OF
the lake. Their foohardy experience
might have proven fatal to them had il
not been for nearby launch thai
came To their rescue.
According to the boys, Fox Lake is
the Gshcrman's "happy hunting
grounds" Astounding in many diicren
varieties of fish such as pike, pickercl
sun fish, black bass, blue gills, doghsh
also many others of the smaller species
Both Of the boys thoroughly enjoyed
the carc-frec and vigorous outside lif
at the resort and have gained il
strength, weight and health.
