CHANGE RESORT SIGNS
Trouble Brewing for Parties
Who Removed and Chang
ed Highway Signs.

With the number of the car al
ready, it looks as though the party
of five young men, claimed to be
from Milwaukee and who removed
and changed resort highway signs
from Highway 20 one evening last
week, will do some explaining and
possibly will be hailed into court
for their fun.
William Wilson, who operates
cottages on Highway 70 about
eight miles southwest of Eagle
River, discovered a car containing
five young men in the act of re
moving and changing road mark
ing signs near his property one
evening last week. Resort signs
were removed from their proper
places and distributed in hit-and-
miss style along that portion of
the highway as far as the Red
Oaks resort. In one instance The
Morey signs were placed at the
Red Oaks road, and other signs
turned in the opposite direction
from what they should have been.
1t was we'll scrambled affair, but
was stopped by Mr.. Wilson.
The number of the car has been
secured and an investigation is be-
ing made. Other signs along the
Everett-Hemlock road have been
destroyed the past week, and I'M
doubtedly it is the same crowd
who have damaged property.
