SPECIAL FEATURES
FOR CHARITY BALL
Railroad Boys Have Secured
Several Novelty Acts to En-
tertain Those Who do Not
Care to Dance.

The Railroad Boys, who have
charge of the Charity Ball to be
given at the Du Pont Club on Fri
day evening, Feb. 10th, believe that
all holding tickets should have some
form of amusement provided for
them, and with this in mind they now
announce that they will have several
speciality acts which will be staged
during the course of the evening, be-
tween dances, to provide entertain
ment for those who do not care to
dance. These novelty acts will be
real treats for all who attend, and
will be well worth the price of the
tickets.
That the charity ball is to be one
of the biggest successes Of the sea-
son is indicated by the advance sale
of tickets, over two hundred and
fifty tickets already having been
sold, and by the night of the dance
more than three hundred will be
sold. The crowd will be one Of the
most democratic ever seen in Wash
burn, and it is hardly believed that
the spacious gymnasium at the club
will be able to accommodate the crowd,
but the managers Of the affair will
endeavor to provide room and enter
tainment for all, and they say to
come if you hold ticket, and if you
have not already purchased ticket
to come and get one at the door.
The proceeds from this dance will
go to charity, the music, hall, print
ing, etc. all having been donated.

BADGER CLUB
SCOOP VICTORY
PLAY PARK FALLS TEAM
OFF THEIR FEET
Take Much footed Dewn-State
Team Into Camp to the Tune
Of 38 to IA. Play Real
Game.

The much footed basket ball team
from Park Falls calling themselves
the City Team, and coming with the
reputation of beating everything
with which they have come in con-
tact, ran into a real snag last Sat-
urday evening, when they took on
the Badger Club team at the Du Pont
Gym nthis city, and the score which
was piled up against them by the
fast Washburn five will undoubtedly
take some of the wind out of their
sails for some time to come.
The teams appeared on the floor,
about equally matched, and in prac-
tice before the game the visitors gave
a real exhibition of how they could
pass the ball and drop the same in
the baskets almost at WILL. and the
largest crowd that has even gathered
at the Du Pont Club to witness
game had misgivings that perhaps
the Badger boys would meet their
WdLcTlOO OH LIllS OCCdSlOUs
The game started off with a bang,
but it was not long until it could
be seen that the local boys were de-
termined to give Park Falls battle,
and soon the score began piling up
in their favor. The passing Of the
ball by the opponents was broken up
so effectively that their work went
to smash during the first half.
The Washburn boys, on the other
hand, played excellent ball and show
ed real team work in their passing
and working the ball up the floor,
and then in getting it into the bas-
ket for counter.
The Park Falls boys were pretty
well tagged when they left the floor
after the first half, but they came
back strong in the second half, but
could not make their. work count..
The game was rather rough, but was
well played and was almost devoid Of
personal fouls.
All Of the members of the Wash
burn team played excellent ball.
Jack MacRae. who has considerable
weight To carry around, demonstrate
ed that he was regular speed dea-
mon when it came to covering the
floor, and time and again he broke
up the defense CT the opponents.
Lloyd Olson played steller game
until he was put out of commission
through collision in which he suffer-
ed scalp wound During the last
half the Badger boys put in a num-
ber of substitutes who continued the
scoring for the locals. The game
ended with a 38 to IA score.

INSPECTING EGGS

Three hatcheries in the southern
part of the state and eighty seven
farm fiocks which are supplying these
hatcheries with eggs were inspected
by Mr.. Lackie of the State Depart
ment of Markets and the first certi-
ficates to inspected and accredited
hatcheries were issued today in a
move on the part of the Department
of Markets to insure the qualify of
baby chicks which are being prodIc-
ed in the state. Ten out OF the
eighty-seven fiocks failed to pass
inspection and many birds below the
state standards were removed from
the remaining fiocks. The Depart
ment hopes to establish state re
utation for good chicks by prevent
ing the widespread practice of put
ting mongrel chicks from scrub stock
on the market. Under the new
plan advised by the department all
chicks from accredited hatcheries
will be shipped out under state
trade mark which can be used only
on a strictly first class product. 1t
is estimated that approximately 50,-
900 chicks will be shipped out under
this trade each week during the hatch
cry season and that eventually Wis
consin will become the hatchery CEN
ter of the middle west for high class
baby chickens.

Honors on Wednesday
BEAVER AND OTTER
TRAPPING OPEN
The Season Opened February
First and Will Extend Until
The Last Day Of March This
Year.

Beaver and otter trapping season
opened February 1st, for the first
time in many years, and will extend
until March 81.
The trapping fee for beaver and OF
ter is $500, plus so cent special
tag for each skin. Beaver is in
great demand at the present time for
coats, caps and trimmings and good
prices are secured for the skins. 1t
is feared that the open season on
beavers will attract so many trap
pers that the animals will be ex-
terminated.
Many persons are making their
living by trapping this winter, and
the records at the office of The coun-
ty clerk show a great increase over
last year in the number Of bounties
collected.
Although many of the trappers
are experts at the work, some of
them are new in the game, and to
these, the following advice given by
Bob Becker, woods and Waters"
editor of the Chicago Tribune might
be of some aid:
You can't fool old time fur
buyer, but you can make him pay
top prices for your pelts If you cure
them properly and have them in
good shape when it comes time to
sell. Every step in curing pelts must
be carefully made if the pelts are
to be pulled off the stretchers in
good marketable condition.
Begin with the skin as soon as it is
broken loose from the carass' n,se
and never allow it to dry in wrinkles
Get. it on to the stretcher as soon as
possible. The amateur often gets
IN trouble by ryiaes$o pull mink
hide over strecher big enough for
q skunk's hide. He may not tar
the skin, but he often stretches it
so much that the fur comes out: the
skin is then easily torn and the fur
loses its iuster.
Make the stretchers to fit the pelt
of cased skins. A board two AMI q
half feet long and not more than
four or four an da half inches at
one end and three and half inches
wide at the other, tapering to =
point, makes a good stretcher for a
mink skin. The skins of most Of
the animals that are trapped In this
part of the country are stretched
around boards. The raccoon and
bea5er, however, are split and stretch
Sat on the board. Approximate
measurements can be made Of the
cased skins and the stretchers trim
med to fit them.
Pelts have tendency to wrinkle
unless they are tackled on the street
chers. A tack at the base Of the
tail and in each one of the hind feet
keeps the skin stretched tightly un-
| til it is dry. A tapered strip push
ed under he skin will keep it STREET
ched while it is drying. Hang the
pelts in a cool, dry place where the
sun will not strike them while they
are curing.

WASHBURN WINS
AT bayfield,
DEFEAT BAYFIELD, ON
THEIR OWN FLOOR
Final Score is Is to 9. Game
Was Rather Rough But Was
Interesting. An Easy Vic
tory.

The Washburn High School bas-
ket ball, team demonstrated their
ability to play off their own floor
last Friday evening when they jour-
neyed to Bayfield, to stack up against
the Bayfield, High School quintet,
winning the game by score of 1S
to 9.
Thegame was played at the old
Court House building and was wit
messed by a large crowd, many going
from here to see the game.
The first half was rather close,
the locals winning that half by a
margin of three points, but in the
last half they held the Bayfield, boys
down to three scores, piling up nine
points for themselves.
TIE game was interesting through
out, although rather rough at times.
The Washburn boys are well salts
fed with the treatment they received
both at the hands of the Bayfield,
team and the referee.
