THE BIG FALLS ROAD
NEEDS COUNTY AID

The Big Falls road is the most tray
eled road in the towns of Flambeau
and Big Falls. There is only one mile
to cut and four miles to grade to con-
meet this road with Sawyer county.
Sawyer county is building Il bridge
across the Burnett river and opening
a road to the county line to connect
with our road between section 5 and 6,
35-5w north of the Harry Baxter farm.
This road runs one mile west of Dairy
Center and connects with that village
with an east and west road There
are around 100 settlers that would be
benefited along and tributary to this
road if it was thrown into county
road. Big Falls is getting far more
new settlers than any other town in
the county and they are settling there
on almost every quarter mile of road
frontage.
The town of Big Falls has never
received dollar of county aid on their
roads. if we are correctly informed.
and the settlers there and in Dewey
and Flambeau along that road feel
that they are entitled to some conSid-
Grafton by the county board on this
road. We understand that the road
and bridge committee refused to sign
the petition for county aid ON this
road at the present time
We believe that when they have had
time to look the road over that they
will willingly endorse the proposition.

PLEA MADE TO "SLACKERS"
Men Not Actually Deserters Should Re-
port Facts, Army Warning.

Westinghouse final appeal to for
mer service men to assure themselves
that their names were not carried on
the army's list of draft evaders and
deserters to be made public this week
has been issued by the War depart
ment.
"Men who are not actually deserters,
but who believe themselves charged
with desertion on the records" the ap-
peal said, should communicate imme-
diately with this office (the adjutant
general's) setting forth all the facts
in their cases. Those in doubt of their
status should follow the same course
There is still opportunity to escape the
odium that will attend the publication
of the names if action is taken prompt

leased by Paramount, you will be anx-
ious to see the third picture written
and personally directed by Miss We

woman will find it charming. The
principals in the cast are Claire Wind

novelty effects. which are smaller in
size than the feather ones.
Crepe de chine and crepe Marocain
are the leading fall fabrics of the
moment, with a noticeable return to
favor of high luster taffeta and crepe
Georgette.
Next season frocks for children
are as varied as the taste and imagi-
nation Of des gners bringing them out
but more lean to the normal waist
placing than for some time.
Patent leather forms the narrow
belt which is part of blouse of
orange georgette. The heavy leather
belt is in interesting contrast to the
sheer fabrics of the blouse.
Silk fringe is used on one of the
new serge suits. The fringe in black
borders the coat of blue twill--fringe
about two inches wide. hanging along
the edge of the sleeves and the lower
edge of the coat.
Filet lace is treated without any
respect whatever by the dressmakers
this year, for they dye it any color OF
the rainbow that suits their conven-
| ience.
Some smart ideas are carried out

The San Francisco, police suspicious
of Hightower's story, kept him in Gus

satisfaction that Dolly Mason was a

A woman named Doris Shirley,
who Hightower asserted had accom-

cisco August 2, the night Of the muir
der, was located by the police and de-
MED this statement which would have
tended to establish an alibi for High
tower. Hightower later admitted
that he was mistaken in the date of
the automobile ride to San Jose.
A search of Hightower's room in q
San Francisco hotel revealed a tent
which corresponded with tent ropes,
pegs and flaps found at the scene of
the crime; a contrivance for discharg-
ing a number of rifle shells or cart
ridges simultaneously, and several
scraps of newspaper outlining the
reward. Hightower admitted owner
ship of all articles found, saying he
had taken the tent to Salada Beach
for a picnic, and that the cartridge
contrivance was the rough model of a
machine gun.
