SHOWED RIGHT SPIRIT
Organizations Take Care of
Needy Families, Dispensing
Many Gifts and Goods.

The Christmas spirit has been
very manifest in Eagle River and
surroundings this year. At least
three organizations have dis
pensed material good will among
the needy and Riddles of . several
country schools. The C-S Club,
with Mrs. Mccullough and Mrs
Egbert leading. seat out boxes
of clothing and toys collected in
Eagle River to a number oil the
more unfortunate families. The
Woman's Club of Eagle River
sent out $500 worth of gro
ceries suitable for Christmas
dinners. Rev. w. Davies was
busy for more than a week re-
ceiving and sending out boxes of
clothing and toys and is not
done vet. The Congregational
churches of the following places
sent TO Mr.. Davies their used
clothing and toys: Waupun,
Appleton, Oshkosh, Wauwatosa.
Madison, River Falls. Milwau
kee, Winnetka. Ill. and Men
asha and Fox Lake not vet ar
rived. This large amount of
material made it possible to send
at least one toy for each child in
a dozen rural schools with some
clothing to be used at the teach
er's discretion. Seventeen fami-
lies were supplied with a liberal
amount of clothing and toys
and $3.50 was spent on grocer

going that an organization for
dispensing charity is needed in

MEET HERE THURSDAY
Land Clearing Department
Send Representative to
Eagle River Next Week
Thursday.

John Swenehart, in charge of
the state land clearing Office at
Bayfield,. and who is doing such
splendid work in advancing the
interests of the farmers in the
state in land clearing at a mini
mum figure, will be at Eagle
River next Thursday afternoon,
January 9th, meeting with mem
bers of the C-S club of farm
women.
The ladies of this club, and the
majority of them are farmers
wives, are going into the matter
of clearing more land in Villas
county, that in time will show
splendid results. That is, pro-
viding the public and the farmers
who are directly interested, will
render the assistance necessary.
This does not mean that money
to advance this project will be
demanded. lust the right sort
of a campaign whereby every
farmer will see the benefit of
clearing more acres. and be able
in a few years to show a finely
improved farm with money-pav-
ing herds of cattle, sheep and
hogs.
Last spring the Villas County
News started a campaign of land
clearing, offering a $4,000 prize
IN cash TO the farmer who could
show the greatest number of
acres cleared in 1920. That offer
holds good, and the money will
be mailed the man who signed a
clearing contest" slip, and who
shows this paper that he cleared
more than his neighbors who
entered the contest. Letters are
being mailed to those who Joined
the contest, and if returns are
made this week, some fellow will
receive a New Year present of
$4,000 from this paper.
The Villas County News wants
to see more acres under cultiva-
ton, and therefore is willing TO
show its progressiveness, even if
we are poor, in advancing the
best little county in the state.

County-Snow About Foot
Deep.

Traffic in this northern section
OF the state Is still being made by
the use of automobiles. Barring
a few drifts on some of the main
trunk highways. no difficulty is
experienced in cross country driv-
ing. Cars from Sayner, Three
Lakes and other points make
almost daily trips and drivers
claim that witha little labor on
a few drifts at points on the
highways, wheeling is just as
good as at. any season OF the
year.
1t is said that a few bad drifts
exist between Conover and State
Line, otherwise traffic would be
kept up on Highway 81 the same
as on others. A new state-1aw
calls for the keeping of trunk line
highways open during the win
ter for wheeled traffic. and sever
al counties are readily complying
with the law. How about Villas

Rheumatism is a direct result of
eating too much meat and other rich
foods that produce uric acid which is
absorbed into the blood. It is the
function Of the kidneys to filter this
acid from the blood and cast it but
in the urine !; the pores Of the skin
are also q means Of freeing the blood
Of this impurity. In damp and chilly
cold weather the skin pores are closed
thus forcing the kidneys TO do double
work, they become weak and sluggish
and fail to eliminate the uric acid
which keeps accommodating and cir,
culating through the system, eventu-
ally settling in the joints apd muscles
causing stiffness, soreness and pain
called rheumatism. : ,.@1.z - j
