the state from the Milwaukee head
quarters of the Wisconsin Anti-Tub
erculosis Association, official repre-
sentative in Wisconsin of the Nation
al tuberculosis Association.
The bill posters Of the state have
volunteered their services in securing
bill board space for the posters and
putting them up. The posters are un
usually attractive in design and bright
coloring. They feature Santa Claus
and a small boy eagerly mailing
Christmas sealed letter. In the larger
cities of the state immense twenty
four foot posters, the largest ever is

of the Wisconsin Anti-Tuberculosis
Association and will take entire
charge of the distribution of the seal

WORTH KNOWING

Heat some vinegar on the stove
while the cabbage is cooking and the
odor will not go through the house.
When aluminium pans are burned,
clothes pin makes a good scraper.
Vinegar used in the water in which
such vegetables as head lettuce and
cabbage are washed will remove any
bugs which might be present.
To clean the inside of flower vases,
use salt and soda.
When vanishing stairs that are
in use, varnish every other step one
day and the rest the following day.
Starch from clothes will not stick
to the iron If a little salt is added
when the starch is made.
Bind the ends of your quilts with a
strip of cloth. These are easier to
wash than the quilts A little lace on
the ends of the strips will make
them more attractive.

STANGE-ELLIS BOUGHT
STATE BANK BUSINESS
Pioneer Banking Institution
Changed Hands This Week
and Will Reorganize
In the Spring

A business deal of Importance and
of interest to many in Eagle River
and Villas county was closed this week
and involved the purchase Of the
State Bank of Eagle River by E. W.
Ellis of this village and A. H. STANCE
of Merrill.
The institution was founded thirty
years ago by the late A. Mckenzie
and Fred Morey and for many years
handled all the business in that line
for a very large territory. 1t has al
ways ranked as one of the best and
safest repositories in this part of the
state. Always closely in touch with
financial affairs of the country, it
was matter of pride with Mr. Nc
Kenzie that his bank was always
ready to meet any financial emergen-
cy that might arise, by always being
prepared with large cash reserve,
preferring to take lesser amount of
interest for his loans than investing
in securities or ventures which might
be hard to realize on in times of tight
money. At the same time the bank
did great deal to assist local bust
ness men in all trustworthy enter
have reason to feel grateful to the
bank and its owners for the conf
1ence placed in them in their earlier
efforts in whatever business they
were engaged in" AS the one bank
in the town for nearly quarter of
! century, the occasions are innum-
cradle when its assistance has been
timely for many when confronted with
sickness and death, aid that no mat
ter how worthy the subject, is entire
out of the question to obtain from
the large banks Of the cities where
business is conducted solely along
business lines. The people of small
towns have great deal of reason to
hank the home banker for many
things, quite often for favors that are
entirely unknown to the beneficiaries
AS such men, the founders of this
ong established banking house will
long be remembered by large list
Of patrons.
The new asvners, Mo1srs. Ellis and
STANCE feel that the future business
outlook for Eagle River warrants in
creased banking facilities and it is
the intention soon after the first of
the year to reorganize under First
National bank regulations with in
creased capital enabling it to handle
everything that may be presented to
it along legitimate banking lines With
a larger capitalization they expect to
be able to be of more service to pat
rons than ever before, and believe
that by cooperation between the bank
and its customers, the field holds good
promise for both themselves and the
patrons. Former patrons are invited
to continue their relations with a
guarantee of an earnest wish to ex-
Ind the people of the vicinity fair
and friendly treatment at all times.
The new officers are:
e. w. Ellis, president
A. H. STANCE, Vice president
Fred Morey, cashier
No changes in the present bank
employees are at present contemplate
ed.

START ICE RINK

Work was started on the community
ice rink at the fair grounds this week
The baseball diamond and large part
of the outfield will be utilized for the
purpose. The snow is being scraped
up around the edges to form a barrier
and when the walls are made the area
will be flooded. The Parent Teachers
association, which is the moving spir
it in the enterprise will see that the
ice is kept clean so that there will
be skating all winter, providing q
place for good healthy amusement
for all.

MOVED TO AMIGO

John Knobla was caller at the
Review Office Wednesday while en-
route with E. S. Weisse to Amigo
where the Knobla family will hence
forth reside It was twenty-seven
years on May 18th since John first
became a resident there, a young boy
on crutches at the time, though one
would hardly think it now to look at
John. The best wishes of many friends
go with them to their new home with
hopes that they will not entirely sever
their relations with Villas county.

The guests went masked and attired

thought they were perfectly bewitch-

get wise to such things, we discover
ed that a long time ago. A delightful
evening was enjoyed winding up with
delicious refreshments.

Most Wonderful Of All

This is age of wonders, we see them every day,
We marvel at the things which greet the eye;
We glance at them moment, then hurry way,
For know there' be new one bye and bye
We wonder how the mind Of man conceived such great
ideas,
We're surprised to see the work he has achieved;
We flying through the air, they and go
with ease,
Had this been pledged century back twoud not have
been believed.
We have the submarine which dives beneath the ocean
wave
We send out wireless messages ships far out at sea-
Lightning, fire and water, man has made his slave,
Can anything wonderful than these things ever
answer yes; million times wonderful than these
Are the SIMPLEST things in nature single grain of
sand,
blade of grass flower for in each of these
work he cannot dupicatethe work of Gods own hand

COMMISSION GRANTED
INCREASE IN RATES
Beginning Next Month, Users
of Electric GrilIs and Other
Heating Appliances
Must Pay More

The following statement received
by the Eagle River Light and Water
Commission, authorizing its request
for an increase in the present rates
charged for the supplying of electric
current used by grills and radiators
will be Of interest to those who have
such conveniences installed. We have
long been in favor of meter system
for Eagle River and undoubtedly the
growing demand for electric current
will force it's adoption in the near
future. When it does come everyone
will have some trouble to adjust
themselves to the new condition after
many years of extravagant use of
electricity but there will be a great
amount of current saved for useful
purposes:
Application Of the Eagle River Light
and Water Commission for Au-
thority to Increase Electric
Rates
Application in this case was filed
with the Commission on August 20,
1921 by the Eagle River Light and
Water Commission. In its petition the
applicant sets forth that the present
lawful rate for electrical energy for
grills and radiators is flat rate of
IL cents net per 100 watts of con-
nected load per month. This rate the
applicant contends is entirely made
quate to pay the cost of the service
and authority is requested to increase
the rate for these appliances to 40
cents net per 100 watts of connected
load per month. No other change in
rates is requested.
Hearing in the case was duly set
for September Is, 1921 but there were
no appearances either for or against
the granting of the proposed rates
The electric plant of the village of
Eagle River is operated by water
power and service is furnished exclu-
sively on flat rate schedule. Owing
to this type of schedule the consump,
ton of electrical energy in Eagle
River is exceedingly high and the ap-
plicant now finds its plant loaded to
capacity and faces the necessity of
installing additional station equipment
The installation of this equipment,
however, will not be completed for
several months and in the mean time
the applicant finds it important to
reduce the consumption of electrical
energy. 1t is partly to accomplish this
end that the increased rate for grills
and radiators has been requested. In
our opinion, however, it is very doubt
full whether increasing the rate will
reduce the consumption of current as
the rate is probably not sufficiently
high to greatly reduce the number of
appliances used and under a flat rate
there is no incentive to restrict the
length of the time that appliances are
used.
Flat rates in general are unsatis-
factory and wasteful but are especial
ly i'll adapted to appliances Of high
wattage, such as electric grills and
radiators, where the use will vary to
great extent among different con-
sumers. The rates proposed by the
applicant will result in an unusually
high rate if the average use of the
appliances is less than two hours per
day and to an unusually low rate if
they are used much over hours a
day. AS the average use will probably
