And then-he gave a quick little
pull,
And found he had the end of his
fshpole full.
At last we had caught quite few,
Enough to supply the whole family
and neighbors too
Then we made a homeward bound,
The fish seemed to weigh million
pounds.
At last we reached our destination,
After having three months of
vacation.
Itseemed SO nice to trot back to
school,
And again go and learn our
mannerly rule.- Walter Ottoway

Character Revelation.

Not merely speeches prepared, ora
lions delivered, sermons preached, but
what man says and how he says it to
his neighbors friend. to his acquaint
ance or customer, to his father or
mother, his wife or child across the
breakfast table; this is what counts,
for It reveals him off his guard and
taken unawares, not as he would wish
to be, not even as he would wish to be
thought to be, but as he actually Is,
and it marks him with an indelible
mark.-Exchange

OFF we go to the fishing grounds,
Over the hills and many mounds,
Through the woods we trot,
Hoping to get good lot.
We hurriedly eat our morning meal
Very glad and joyful feel.
For when we catch a fish or so,
Well be filled with JOY from head
to toe.
Suddenly wien Bill was holding
tight,
He thought he felt little bite;

The lawns in town are grassy plots,
That are covered with sweet
forget
In the air are seen butterflies and
bees
Swimming about among the trees.
In the woods the sumac grows
And the sweet cool wind always
blows.
Primroses peep from beneath the
trees,
And everyone is happy and free.
The lakes and streams are all
glittering
The birch and elms are quiyering
The meadows soon will be in
perfect bloom;
Eagle River will thus cast aside all
gloom.
Eagle River is a peaceful town.
Just wait till al the old buildings
are down,
And the many new ones put in
their place,
You'll find Eagle River has taken
up quite space.
Robert Gunderson.
VACATION
When comes the end of joyous school,
No more of our teachers mannerly
rule,
When comes the sunny days of play,
We should make the best of it in
every way.
Day after day we frolic and play
With Natures prettiest grandeur
gay.
The brown and green leaves are at
play,
The birds songs tell us-now is May!
Vacation comes but once a year
Why not use it while it's here!
Our hearts rejoice
To hear vacations merry voice.
When comes the end of sunny
weather,
On with your boots and shoes of
leather.
The snow begins to fall thick and
fast,
On to school we must go at last.
Maxine MCINTYRE.
EAGLE>RIvER
Eagle River is the best place!
And there is plenty of breathing
space,
And the school to which we go,
Is really better than any / know.
The rivers here are azure blue,
And the sky is always cloudless too,
And we all joyfully do our work,
For Eagle River never shirks.
The streams here are silver gray,
As they widen at the bay,
The meadows and trees are in all
their splendor.
Now really, Eagle River is wonder!
The leaves now are getting green,
Much beauty up here is seen,
With lakes, rivers, and brooks,
And otl-so many beautiful hooks!
With our many beautiful hills,
And our prosperous new mills,
Eagle River will really show
The rest of the world how to grow!
Dorothy Shattuck.
THE SIXTH GRADE
Four boys only,
Few of us are homely,
Most of us are girls,
None of us have curls.
Twenty in the class,
Each one a merry lad and lass,
Not one of us shirk,
Each one does excellent work.
Some big, some small,
Some thin, some tall,
Some lean, some lank,
But always first in rank.
Always tidy, always clean,
Not one who is mean,
Always cheerful, always bright,
We're really-an ideal Sightl
Honor and fame,
Is always our aim,
Always ready to aid,
Never better class made.
In our dear class,
Talent is with every lad and lass,
Some, doctors we'll be;
Some, lawyers-you'll see.
Some nurses, some teachers,
Some merchants, some preachers,
Some poets, some writer's,
Some inventors; and patriotic
fighters.
A model class it's true,
Some like us-are few.
Eagle River, hear this rime,
Help US ever onward climb.

Announcement


WV of the possibilities and diversified resources
of Eagle River and Villas County, we have
decided there is room for first-class real estate
company here.
We take this means of announcing the opening
of the Villas COUNTY LAND COMPANY with
offices on Railroad Street nearly opposite the
Northwestern station. We do not claim monop
oily of the progressive spirit but the public may
feel certain that will be found ready to do
our full share in every move which tends to pro-
mote the growth and development of our town and
county. In our opinion the time has come for
Eagle River to realize on it's favorable geograph
cal situation and its natural resources and get in
the 5000 class and that Villas county should have
the place agriculturally it deserves. We believe
that time will prove that confidence is well
founded We invite the cooperation of all who
share this confidence with

Adriene Renault, played by LOUISE
GLAUM, the divinity of the Frivolty,,
Queen of the Cabarets of New York's
Night Life, never inclined towards this

Yet the Eternal Problem of SEX
became Adrien's problem, too, when
Fate so ruled, and this wonderful,
silken creature of New York's World
of Folly, this favorite of the Wine
Drinkers and Butterfly Worshippers,
found herself as incapable of solving
the age-long problem as the most
primitive of womankind.
There are two standards of marality
one for man, the other for woman.
If a man has lightly trodden und ar
foot the principles of Sex, there is so
r~etribution. If a oma violates the
code, she becomes an %out-cast, shun-
ned by women and declared unfit by
men. And yet it is a part of life and
mas always been so and ever so re-
main. Such is the problem dwelt
upon in the wonder play-SEX, which
will play at the Lincoln Sunday and
Monday, June goth and 21st.
Every lover of art, every admirer
of beauty, every thinker, every one
who likes the sensational and dra-
matte, everyone who has ever thought
of the SEX problem should see this

For the summer convenience of the
Lincoln patrons, the management has
installed a cooling system which alone
