Get Csc on the Dollar.

SlXty-five cents on the dollar, in
all probability, will be returned to
the Bayfield, County bank, which
some time ago closed its doors at
Washburn, it was announced on
Tuesday. The refund will be made
possibly by the disposal of the ma
jority of the assets of the bank to
the new first National bank of
Washburn. The application for
the transfer of the assets was
made by the state banking com
mission after a conference with the
depositors' committee from the de-
funct bank. Payments will be
made in month, it is expected. Il

RHINELANDER SUNDAY
The Independent Team From
That City, Comprising Old
Players, VIII Play Here
With Locals.

There is a chance of the base
ball fan having another run for
his money in Sundays game be-
tween Eagle River and the hide
pendents from Rhinelander, which
will be played on the Eagle River
diamond.
Most every fan knows Post, Dea-
con, Carroll, Bonnie and the 9TH
ers who constitute the Rhinelander
Independents. These players have
been in the game for many years,
and the lineup Of the RhineIander
fellows who will go up against US
will be: Post, Deacon, Ed Carroll
ODay, Peterson, Bonnie, Donahue,
Gilbertson, Swanson, and George
Carol.
Last Sundays game at Winnepe
was a good one; stood the fans on
their toes from inning number one
to the last man out in the ninth.
That was snappy ball and worth
the money. \This game Sunday
coming has the ear-marks of being
equally as good.
Eagle River is putting forth a
good snappy brand of baseball, and
the youngsters are working in on
the order of old-timers at the
game. SO far the team has lost
but one game and that was to
Camp Winnepe last Sunday. Fans
will enjoy seeing their old Rhine
lander friends next Sunday when
the game is called.

Be Careful This Summer.

Careless campers who leave their
fires burning in the woods or toss
lighted cigar and cigarette stubs
into the brush, burned last season
more timberland than was cut by
all sawmills in the country all
year.
demonstration has been recogniz-
ed for years as one of the great
necessities. Something is being
accomplished in this direction.
But forest fires at present wipe
out much more timber every year
than is being regrown.
Records kept by the forest SER
vice show that every year the area
of forest land swept by fire is
about twice as great as the area
cut over by logging operations.
Four-fifths of the fires each year
are man made. They might be
prevented by the exercise of or
binary care. Most of them start
from hot Goals left by campers or
picknickers or from lighted ciga-
rette butts, and some Of them
come through carelessness of set
tiers in burning up stump piles
and brush heaps.
The burned-over acreage is
largely cut-over land, which re-
duces the monetary loss, but the
potential destruction is neverthe-
less terrific, for the fires on the
cut-over acreage destroy the seeds
and young growth that would re-
forest the land.
The forestry service says the
first important step in reforesta-
ton is to start the growth on the
cut-over land, and on much of this
land effective protection against
fire will be all that is necessary for
this purpose"

Health Is Wealth.

Health is wealth, someone has
said. 1t is also happiness, because
to be unhealthful is to be unhap-
py.
That happiness means health has
"a scientific basis, according to- a
noted scientist, who has expert
mented with rats.
Those that have been tanned so
that they could be handled in the
hand do not suffer the Ill effects
from experiments as do those that
are wild and afraid during the ex-
pertinent.
This is directly due to properties
of several glands which are like
glands of internal secretions in
the human, this scientist says.
Since fear affects health, and
therefore happiness, wise people
will avoid fear.
Most fear is fancied, anyway,
and is a mental condition that in
a large majority of cases can be
overcome.
To be healthy and fearless, then,
is to be happy, which is the goal
of every human being-Ex.

vices, and Miss Christman has had
efficient and willing helpers every

From present indications there
will be great activities in county
politics put forth at the coming

LINE is IN OPERATION
Telephone Connection With
Land O. Lakes and Conover
Opened Last Week Friday.

The completion of the telephone
system between Eagle River, Con-
over and Land O. Lakes put in
operation last Friday afternoon
the twenty miles of service which
has been under construction for
several months. 1t is now an easy
matter to reach direct the patrons
of the north rim of Villas county,
whereby in former days it was
necessary to either wire by West
ern Union or else drive by car and
deliver the important message.
The State Line Telephone Com
pany was organized fully this past
spring and the stock readily sub
scribed, S5O00,00, for the building
of the twenty mile system. 1t was
through the efforts Of many of the
State Line people that this line
was put through and direct aid
was given by people at Conover
and Eagle River.
At present until the switchboard
is installed, the headquarters of
the State Line end will be in the
O. P. LaChance business building.
Day and night service is already
in vogue and there is no question
but that the system will pay.
Conover takes care of it's patrons
from the Dobbs store.

WINNEPE TAKES GAME
Eagle River Meets Jinx at
Camp Winnepe Grounds in
Sundays Contest.

Eagle River lost her first game
last Sunday when she met up with
the boys of Camp Winnepe on Cat
fish. The score Of 4-3 shows that
it was a very high proposition and
was won by the camp boys after a
hard battle Eichler, pitcher for
Winnepe, struck out eight while
Paul cleaned up three. 1t was a
hit and run game with plenty of
spectacular action and the fans
were kept on their toes during the
nine innings.
With a score of 81 in Eagles
favor at the beginning of the
sixth inning, it looked like a
cleanup for the locals. A mixup
on Eagles side let in two runs for
the camp and the score was tied
until the ninth when Bent by
dropping a fly let in Cook with a
run which closed the game.
1t was a bully good game and
a bunch of interested fans follow
ed the contest through to the end
and enjoyed every section which
the two teams carried with snap
and bang. This is the first game
Eagle River has lost this season.
The box score tells the story to
the guy who understands it:
