WaltOns Can Now
Fish For Trout
Season for Trout Opens in Wisconsin
Tdoay-Bass and Pike Season
to Open Later.
(By Associated Press)


Madison, Wis.-The trout streams Of
Wisconsin opened to expectant Waltons
today as the season for these gamiest
Of fish went in to effect.
Thousands of fishermen will find am
pie return for their participation in
this attractive sport during the pres
ent season, Brayton 0. Webster, fish
cries expert of the state conservation
commission, says. He looks for large
catches to repay those anglers who take
their chances in Wisconsin streams.
The conservation commission reports
that the trout streams are well stock
with fish of good size, with the
Rainbow variety especially abundant.
A late spawning season has kept the
trout we'll up in the rivers, it finds.
The present should be a good gen
eral fishing season, according to Mr..
Webster, who expects that Wisconsin
rivers and lakes will afford abundant
opportunity for sportsmen to make
large catches and develop fishing
stories that can be substantiated by
tangible evidence.
Bass and pike, the seasons for which
open later, have held up their numbers
oyer the winter, the conservation COM
mission says, 1t looks for an excep-
tionally lrarge turnout of anglers
during the present season.

MEMORIAL FOR
NEWSPAPER MAN
KenOsha Asked to Aid in
Building Memorial to
II. C. Campbell.
WELL KNOWN HERE

Kenoshans were asked today to join
in the plan for perpetuating the men,
DRY of Henry C. Campbell, veteran
newspaper man and former president
of the City club in Milwaukee, who
passed away several months ago. The
City Clubs board Of directors in Mil
waukee have formulated a plan which
they intend to carry out many times
in the future-that Of creating mem
orials for Milwaukeeans and residents
OF other parts of the state, who have
not only been powers in their own
cities and state, but also in the ma
ton as well.
With this in view, committees have
been formed in the City club, Mil
waukee, also a Citizens committee.
which includes many people in the
state who knew Mr.. Campbell well,
and who appreciated his efforts 20
make Wisconsin the greatest state in
the union. On this Citizens commit
tee, which is headed by F. A. Marth-
ems, Milwaukee, are DR.. E. A. Birge.
president of the University of Wis
consin; DR.. Samuel Plantz, president
of Lawrence college; DR.. W. C. Gan
field, president of Carroll college; DR..
Paul B. Jenkins, Williams Bay; Karl
University of Wisconsin,; Mrs. Ben C.
Mathie, Wausau; Dean Louis Reber,
Hooper, Oshkosh; Miss Zona Gale,
Portage. This list is being supple
mented with other names, daily.
The memorial will take the fol-
lowing form:
"a fund will be raised Of not less
than $4,000, this fund to ultimately
be used for the promotion of some one
or more of Mr.. Campbell's ideals.
But, there is also a personal touch
the element of affection that means
much to all of us-the income from
that fund is to be presented annually
to Mrs. Campbell, so long as she NAV
live. When it is no longer required
for this purpose, it is to be used for
its more public service as a perma-
nent memorial to carry out some part
of Mr.. Campbell's ideals"
The memorial has started with real
enthusiasm-two subscriptions of $1,000
each have been received, and every
one in the state, interested in the
work of Mr.. Campbell, is invited to
contribute. These contributions NAV
be sent to Frederic C. Morehouse.

Free Theatre Tickets
Stopped in Vienna

Vienna.-The commissioner of re-
trenchments has put a stop to the
heavy losses incurred by the state the
aters in the granting of passes and the
sale of seats under the standard price.
Being state institutions, the theatres
in the past have been bled by state
functionaries to degree that prom
ised financial ruin. Only 1870 of the
tickets were placed on sale at standard
prices; the remainder was subject to
heavy discounts or free distribution.
Henceforth only few boxes will be
reserved for complimentary allotment
to persons of Importance; the public
will have fair chance to buy every
other seat in the hiuse.

Made His BarrOO1n
Into a Library
Grand Hotel Proprietor In Sheboygan
Had Unique Use for BarrOom When
1t Was Ordered Dismantled.

Sheboygan, Wis.-What to do with
the old bar when the 18th amendment
made it obsolete was a problem with
many hotelkeepers. Some Of them
turned the bars into sample rooms,
others changed the character and pat
ency of drinkables. Some barrooms,
when favorably situated, became stores.
But it remained for Richard l. Warner,
proprietor of the Grand Hotel in She
boygan, to do something unique with
his bar. He, turned it into a library.
Mr.. Warner has many guests who re-
main in the hotel evenings and listen
to readings from noted essayists with
an occasional excursion into metrical
byways. Mr.. Warner is a book lover
and framed notices from the writings
of some of his favorite authors are
conspicuous about the hotel At the
head of the stairs on each floor is an
electric sign reading "Please retire
quietly. Your friends are sleeping"
Conspicuous in the lobby is the Lin
coin corner that contains among other
raementoes the famous letter to Mrs.
Bixby, preserved by the British Muse
UNI as one of the finest known examples
of chaste English. The two prizes are
original letters in the writing of Ad-
miral Farragut and of General Grant,
Lincoln's naval and military chiefs.
They have no direct bearing on Lincoln
but are given places of honor in the
corner because of their own historic
value.
Mr.. Warmers sincere admiration for
Lincoln has taken even a more practical
form than the collection of a Lincoln's
library. He has visited every spot in
the United States that has Lincoln as
sociations and has so closely studied
the martyred presidents life that he
is Lincoln biography incarnate.
Another feature of the hotel is borne
of the fact that it's owner believes in
passing along good thoughts. To this
end he publishes from time to time
leaflets containing literary gems. He
has distributed more than million of
these.

Lack of Coal Kill
Night Life of Berlin

Berlin.-Night life in Berlin was
dealt hard blow through the recent
police regulation prohibiting public
dancing and requiring all cafes to close
at II p. m. Many of the dance halls
still keep open and have tried to pro-
vide substitutes for cabaret perform
ances, but the would-be merry-makers
sit listlessly about and seem to show
no interest except when the orchestras
strike up dance music, then they wig
gle their shoulders, yawn and move
sadly into the dimly lighted streets at
II o'clock.
Until the Ruhr occupation and the
threatened shortage of fuel, cafes were
permitted to remain open until / o.
clock. That made it possible for thea
ire crowds to visit the dance halls and
cafes after the theatre performances
But now this is impossible, as most of
the theatres begin their program at
1880 or 800. Walters organizations
are endeavoring to have the theatres
open at $50, so that the crowds may
visit the cafes after the performance
and thus prevent thousands of walters
and other cafe employees from losing
their jobs.
A few night clubs, or night mokals, D."
have been organized in remote sections
and are endeavoring to provide night
life in spite of police regulations.
Through walters in regular cafes they
distribute cards giving the address of
guides who will find all-night dancing
places where other touts assume the
leadership and conduct their patrons
to remote halls in the center of blocks
where liquor Is provided at extortion-
ate rates and the habitues keep their
eyes on back stairways through which
escape may be made if raid takes
place. But night clubs do not offer the
financial returns they did few months
ago. Tourists are scarce. Foreigners
who were in Germany for pleasure have
nearly all gone since the French went
into the Ruhr. Subway trains all stop
before midnight and consequently Ber-
lin is a dark, dead city after that hour.
