lone CLOSES SUCCESS
Full JACKRABBIT HUNT

The lone rabbit hunt closed Sat-
urday night, the members of the two
teams turning in the tails OF 1859
jackrabbits. While there were 86
members on each team it will be re-
membered that many Of these did
not live in sections where the rab-
bits we're plentiful and spent their
time in killing the rabbits closer to
home. Dwight Misner's team won
by margin Of sic rabbits. Mr.. Mis-
ner was high man with 425 rabbits
to his credit, while Mrs. Misner was
his valuable aid in turning in l65
which she had killed with her twen-
ty.two. Taking it all in all it was a
most successful event. Bewteen
three and four hundred people took
in the free show besides the feed,
and participated in the dance which
was paid for by the losing side. No
doubt arrangements will be made to
put on a similar event the coming
year.
