The Paper Picnic

Editor Chas. Lowater of Spring
Valley sent out invitations to the pub
fishers of Pierce and st. Croix county
to join in picnic and get-together af-
fair at Glen Park, this city, on Sun
day.
At the 'sroll call'' there were two
publishers on hand prepared to pic
mic. Mr.. Lowater was here with his
family, and Van Meter and his two
daughters We're down from New Rich
mond.
Somewhat later C. Howard Angus
tin drove over from Glenwood City,
but, having served for some time with
Howard in the Army, we know that he
just planned to show up for mess call,
and in that we beat him to it, for
once.
Charley Nelson, burdened with a
package of humps" ambled over to
the park in time to meet the visitors
just as they were leaving.
Neighbors had evidently brought
something good for the Doolittles to
eat at home, for they sent word that
they wouldn't be out from Ellsworth
until late in the afternoon.
The Van Meters and the Lowaters
ate their respective lunches and de-
parted, one car to the north and the
other to the east. Charley Nelson and
We scribe had already dined. Howard
presumably, went home hungry, (but
not so presumably, if you know How
ard.)
That, gentle reader, is the fearful
tale of the first annual picnic of the
Grand and Exalted United and United
Pierce and ST. Croix County Puritan
ical Publishers Association of the
World. 1--WE have named it thus un-
der the time honored rule that the
flimsier the incorporation, the bigger
the name.)
Seriously, however, we hope that
the newspaper boys and their families
can get together here for real joyous
old-time feed and visit, and that the
next attempt won't turn out to be
merely paper" picnic.

National Guard Notes

Captain Dawson and Lieutenants
Doolittle and White have returned
from the National Guard Officers
School at Camp Grant. The work to
be taken up by the Company at Camp
Douglas in July and August was TAX
en- up in detail at this School, and the
officers are now prepared to give the
men instructions preparatory to leav-
ing for camp.
Drill will be held every Monday and
Wednesday evening, excepting Mon
day, July 4th, between now and July
25th, on which date the local boys
will leave for Camp Douglas.
An order has been issued from the
Adjutant Generals Office to the eff
feet that no one will be allowed to go
to camp this summer unless enlisted
at least three weeks before the date
set for the encampment. Anyone who
is interested in going to camp with the
River Falls boys this summer is urged
to see 1t. White at once.
Captain Dawson has received infor-
nation to the effect that Motor
Equipment will be issued at very
early date to this command. If the
equipment is issued soon enough to
allow the drivers to become familiar
with the trucks, the company will
drive to Camp Douglas this summer.
The trip would take two days, and the
company would camp on the road in
pup tents one night on the way
down.
The Automatic Pistol is the proper
arm of the Field Artillery, to which
branch of service the local boys now
belong, and orders were issued Mon
day evening for the turning in Of
rifles and cartridge belts. Automatic
pistols and pistol belts will be issued
to every man at an early date.
Remember, there are only few
days left to make the necessary ar
rangements if you want to go to camp
with the boys this summer.

JERSEY PICNIC

Tn first annual Jersey Picnic which
was held June 81 at the James Cotter
farm near Prescott was a great sue
cess. The weatherman sent the best
pignie weather that could be expected.
Macy people were there to honor the
fawn and to enjoy the hospitality of
Mr.. and Mrs. Cotter. The Cotter farm
is an ideal place for gathering of
this kind. The owner has fine herd
Of high grade Jerseys which are very
economical butter fat producers. A
sample of this fine Jersey cream was
served to the picnickers in their cof-
fee, and Jersey ice cream was served
for a dessert.
John Emrie, former Jersey Breeder
of st. Croix County talked very en-
phatically on the value of the Jersey
COW as an economical fat producer and
one that responded very well to kind
treatment and good care He also
spoke of the value of milk as food
and emphasized strongly the value of
Jersey milk for human consumption.
Frank Peirce Of River Falls, for
mer Jersey breeder of Pierce County
gave some of his valuable experiences
with the Jersey.
The County Agent gave demon
stration of the points of dairy COW
by using one of the fine specimens of
Mr. Cotter's herd.
The Jersey breeders in Pierce Coun-
ty are not of any great number, but
they consider the quality and not the
quantity, the same as Jersey milk.

PRESCOTT BEACH TRAGEDY

Ed. Cunningham, merchant of East
Ellsworth, succumbed to an attack of
heart disease while bathing in Lake
st. Croix at Prescott early Sunday
evening. He had been out in the water
for some time, evidently in the best OF
health and enjoying himself with the
many other bathers, when members OF
his party, which included his wife and
his mother, missed him and began to
inquire.
No one had seen him go down, and
for a time it was thought he had
gone up to the dressing room or was
somewhere out on the beach, but a
thorough search brought realization of
the fact that he must have gone down
in the waters.
That section of the beach was drag
ged and soon the body was found.
Doctors had been summoned and a
pulmotor was used immediately, but
it was found that death had resulted
from heart trouble and not from
drowning.
The bathing beach was crowded
with bathers and swimmers, most of
whom were from River Falls, but
none had an inkling of the tragedy
until the search was started.

He Drives In His Sleep
1t Costs Dad Neat Sum

.Drive Slow and See our City; Drive
Fast and See our Jail"
Them's the sentiments of Chief Of
Police H. A. Hutchins and he says
that hereafter speeders in this city
are going to pay the price, no matter
what may be their age, color or pre-
vious condition of servitude; and don't
you forget it!
The hereafter" referred to in the
above paragraph dates from an incid-
ent which occurred about three o'clock
Monday morning, when Albert Hoyer
came dashing into town from the
north in his fathers yelie ''six" en-
route to his home near Ellsworth.
The pavement afforded Al. fine
opportunity to 'srep on ec." anG wit
nesses say he did that little thing. In
front Of the Stewart Mercantile Co.
the car swerved sharply to the left
and crashed into James F. Richards
auto, which was parked in proper
position in the center of the street.
The impact drove Jim-s car up against
the White Way arc post, smashing
rear wheel and caving in the running
board besides probably damaging the
machine internally"
Hoyer stopped, backed up a little
ways and then proceeded to scamper
for home.
The whole affair was witnessed by
Chief of Police Hutchins and Russell
Kay. They notified Richards and then
went up to Cascade to note which di-
rection the car had taken out of town.
The trail was marked by tire which
had an odd tread.
Kay, who is night man at the Jen-
son & Halsted garage, got out the
service car, and with Richards, Danny
Welsh and another young man, start
ed out on the trail of the odd tread.
With the aid of flash light they fol-
lowed it clear through Ellsworth to
the Hoyer home.
The Velie was found with bent
bumper, and the Hoyers admitted the
whole affair. Albert, who was alone
on his trip, was in bed asleep, when
the trailers arrived.
The Hoyers were notified to appear
in local court Monday morning. ard
they were on hand. A fine of $25,
with a $3.50 costs was assessed
against Albert, and the Hoyers will
have to pay considerable repair or
replacement bill on the Richards car.
Young Hoyer said that he fell
asleep while driving and attributed
the smash up to that fact.

FRESH FISH

Hereafter, when you're telling about
big trout, don't mention any little
minnows weighing only six or seven
pounds, for it will only serve to rile
the Hammond News up to another
spasm similar to the following, which
we find in its issue Of last week:
"The River Falls fishermen are ev-.
identity having quite time hanging
onto the championship for the larg-
est trout. Don't worry boys, its gone
aglinlmering.
"Why, Andrew Hope caught one a
number of years ago that weighed 10
" lbs. and bird caught one this
spring on the Trenpeleau that weigh
ed 1919 lbs.
"But what's the use; an Old lady
caught one at Spooner that weighed
IS lbs. ad she didn't feed it Green
brakes either, just common fish
worms
The editor of the News modestly
adds that the above are larger than
even he, himself, usually catches, and
states that IN Founders are about his
limit
From our own experiences the
above numerals would sound more
reasonable as representing the total
number of seasons catch, with pre-
ferably no questions asked regarding
weights.

would support an effective taxing law
this session on filled milk products,
that are now causing dairy interests
of the country much concern. 1t is
claimed to be in the same class as
