Who Was Married2

If one read a certain marriage
notice last week in the Villas
County News, knew the parties in
volved and then tried to figure
out which was what" and who
was who, he or she would have
had mighty hard problem con
fronting them. In attempting to
write up the wedding of Oscar
Johnson and Miss Jennie Erickson,
the groom changed his name, like
wise the bride. Oscar joined the
Erickson family and his bride the
Johnson family. The article should
have read: Oscar Johnson and
Miss Jennie Erickson;" the way it
was read was: Oscar Erickson
and Miss Jennie Johnson" There
yuo have it, and even with all this
mixup, the couple are living hap
PLY and costly in their new home
in the village of Eagle River.

Tires of Bachelor Life.

Martin Vickers, editor of the
Montreal River Miner one of the
two Hurley newspapers, after two
score years of bachelor freedom,
or something like that, last week
joined the ranks of the benedicts.
And he did it so easily and quiet
ly that none of his friends or even
his brothers in the newspaper
game knew his intentions until
he and his bride left for Kansas
City to attend the Shriner's con-
vention. Vickers is a bully good
fellow and most every newspaper
man likes Martin; they know
where to find" him when any
thing of moment comes up for
criticism. The only notice of his
wedding was builded in the fol-
lowing short article which appear
ed in last weeks Miner:
"A host of friends are rejoicing
in announcement of the marriage
of Miss Myrtle Duffy and Mr.. Mar
tin Vickers. There ceremony was
performed at the home of the
brides mother, Wednesday even
ing; May 28th by the Rev. Chester
L. Harries. Miss Myrtle Mcdonald
and Ed Gibbons attended the brid-
al couple. The announcement of
the wedding Friday night came as
great surprise as the couple had
succeeded in keeping their plans
secret until they were safe out
of town."

Izaak Walton League Notes.

Let's conserve our forests and
wild life now before it is too late.
The future of Villas county hinges
upon conservation.
Conservation Warden Long of
Sayner is very enthusiastic about
the progress of the local chapter
for he feels he is now going to
get cooperation and help to pro-
tect the wild game.
With Americans and Australians
aiding, the cottage at Shallowford,
near Stafford, England, where
Izaac Walton used to live has been
restored and opened to the public.
1t is expected to prove another
shrine for travellers, especially
those who are fond of fishing. 1t
was here that Walton wrote his
famous book, "The Compleat An
gler."
A. V. Dewitt who owns and
operates Vernon's Theatre at Say
ner, has kindly offered the Local
Chapter the use of his hall and
moving picture machine for their
use any time.
Address your application and
inquiries to The Izaak Walton
League, Sayner, Wis.

Putting Down Sewers.

The main business streets of
Eagle River have the appearance
of having been struck with a cy-
clone, on account of the power
digger tearing up the streets for
the laying of the new sewer sys-
tenn. The block between Railroad
streets and Main street was finish
ed yesterday all but the filling in,
which will be leveled off at once
permitting of traffic. After the
sewers are laid and the ground has
settled then will come paving.
That however will be done late
this fall after the bulk of the
SUMMER traffic has closed. Next
yea1 Eagle Rivers main thorough
far8s will be all dressed up with
real honest-to-glory pavements and
white way. Prior to this the
streets of the village have been in
class by themselves; fitted for
the days of the one boss shay or
OK team.

AN ARTERIAL HIGHWAY
Main Street Should Be Made
Arterial Point at Junction
of Wall Street to Avert
Accidents.

With the increased traffic and
the discontinuance of the silent
policemen at street intersections
and corners of blocks, Main street
where it verges on Wall street is
now rather dangerous point for
motorists and rarely a day passes
but that hairbreath escapes occur
between cars and pedestrians.
Wall street should be made an
arterlal street by all means and
at once by the village board. With
the traffic unimpeded, coming in
from other streets without any
help from policemen or corner
monuments, there is bound to be
a terrible accident this season I'M
less the danger is lessened by some
method where the drivers of cars
will be assisted to eliminate the
killing or injury of some person.
Where the traffic comes south
on Main street to Wall street that
crossing is absolutely one of dan
ger both to car drivers and pedes-
TRANS and something should be
done. By making Wall street an
arterial highway, the town board
would be doing a mighty good
move in elimination of danger to
the people who use the streets
in Eagle River.
Another thing which is needed
right now is a traffic cop. Quite
a number of drivers are under the
impression that thirty miles per
hour is permissible on the main
business streets, and their atten-
ton might be called forcibly that
a lesser speed would save them a
call on Judge Higgins.

Re-StOck Wisconsin Lakes.

The inland waters of Wisconsin,
thanks to the activity of Con-
gresham H. H. Peavey, are to be
restocked with bass, perch, pike,
and other fresh water fish fry.
This was decided upon at a confer
ence which was attended by Mr..
Peavey, congressman Schneider
and Beck, Elmer S. Hall, state con-
servation commissioner of Wis
consin, and Superintendent O'Mal-
ley of the United States bureau of
fisheries, State and federal off
cials will work together in rescu-
ing the fish and in its distribution.
Carload lots will be sent to such
places that are to be restocked,
and the application for such are
to be made to Congressman Pea
vey who will take care of all such
applications through the United

REDUCE INCOME TAXES
Revenue Act of 1924 Pro-
vides for a Reduction Of
Is Per Cent. (

A. H. Wilkinson, Collector of In
ternal Revenue for the State of
Wisconsin, announced that the
Revenue Act of 1924, signed by the
President under date of June End,
provides for a reduction of 25%0
on income taxes payable in 1924
by individuals and trust estates.
Mr.. Wilkinson stated that in all
cases where individuals paid three
fourths of the amount of tax re-
ported no further payment will
be due; that if, at the time the
taxpayer filed his return, he paid
one-half of the amount of tax re-
ported, no payment will be due I'M
til September 18th. However, if
at the time the Individuals filed
his return he paid only one-fourth
OF the amount of tax reported, he
will only be obliged to pay, on or
before June 18th, one-half of the
amount paid by him when he fill
ed his return. In handling the
tax payment in this manner the
Individual will be receiving credit
on his June 18th installment of
the excess paid at the time the
return was filed, which results
from the 25% reduction incorpor-
ated in the new tax bill.
Mr.. Wilkinson called attention
to the fact that the $50 reduction
does not apply to corporations.

ARE PUBLIC NUISANCE
Dumping Grounds Along the
Highway Towards Catfish
Lake Should Not Be Toler-
ated.

Using a low spot along the Ev-
erett road on the county highway
just a short distance off Highway
26 for a public dumping ground,
has caused a lot of complaints by
users of that thoroughfare, and
there is needs for condemnation
to those who are dumping refuse
without permit from the town
of Lincoln or the county highway
commissioner.
This highway is one Of the most
used in this section carrying sum-
mer people to and from the village
to the many resorts on Catfish
and Cranberry lakes and to those
who have summer homes off this
highway ON Big Bass and Anvil
lakes. 1t is not only unsightly,
but it is disease breeder in the
whole and does not speak very
highly for district which has
been advertising pure and whole
some atmospheric conditions.
The elimination of this dumping
ground should be seen to before
the hot weather starts. A beauti-
full stretch of highway with a
polluted spot here and there along
it's roadbed does not build for
scenic and pleasure drives; rather
will the public abhor such condi-
tions and condemn anybody who
permits of such misdemeanors.

Auto Caused Runaway.

Yesterday in the village near the
Johnson store on Railroad street,
the Galoon farm team standing
alongside the curb was struck by
an automobile, evidently recklessly
driven, and ran away. A fifteen
year old lad, Edw. Stewart of Chi
cago, was in the rig and narrowly
escaped injury. The team ran for
four miles before wrecking the rig
and harness, spilling the supply OF
groceries and feed stuff along the
highway.

ENDING SCHOOL YEARS.
Sixteen Graduates Finishing
High School This Evening
at Auditorium.

With the Baccalaureate address
delivered last Sunday by the Rev.
RI. Rlce of Minocqua; the Glass
Day program, ably carried out
Monday evening, there remains
but the regular Commencement
and Dedicatory program for this
evening to close the 1924 school
year in the Eagle River schools
1t was a masterful address which
Rev. FIR. Rice delivered Sunday to
the students who pass out in their
MES work at the finish of this
school year. Father Rice is one of
the most forcible speakers Eagle
River has heard for some time.
and his impressive advice to the
young men and women if follow
ed will bring to them much re-
Enumeration in future years.
The extensive and carefully pre-
pared program Monday n h t
showed proper thought and per-
fectness in delivery by those on
the program. This class day idea
is rather a beautiful expression
among the boys and girls who
have finished many years of study
and association together. Some
pithy and really good presenta-
lions were given.
Tonight is commencement night
and dedication of the new high
school to future pupils. The pro-
gram for this evening follows:

At last the laundering carrier bore
The village paper to door.
Lo broadening outward we read
To warmer zones tn horizon spread
In panoramic length unrolled
We saw the marvels that it told.
Welcome to us it's week-old news
Its corner for the rustic muse,
Its monthly gauge of snow and rain,
It's record mingling in breath
The wedding bell and dirge of death;
Jest, anecdote, and ove-lorn tale;
The latest culprit sent to Jail;
It's hue and cry of stolen and lost,
It's vendue sales and goods at COST
And traffic calling loud for gain.
We felt the stir of hall and street,
The pulse of life that round us beat;
The chill embargo of the snow
Was melted in the genial glow;
Wide swung again the ice-locked door,
And all the world was ours once more
