Dry Fall To
Be State Park
BY F. W. McCann

At last Spokane. has woke up
to the fact that the Grand Cou-
lee. can be made an asset to the
State in the way of attracting
tourist travel.
While in Spokane last week
the writer called on Mr.. r. In
singer, Of that city. who has
been appointed by the Spokane
Chamber of Commerce as chair
man of a committee. looking to
the object of making a State
Park out of Dry Falls and vicin-
ity. at least to have that portion
set aside by the State for that
purpose, to have the read built
from the Sunset highway to the
falls. and a drive way to the
edge Of. the cliff so the whole
place will be easy Of access.
When this is done each person
visiting the Falls will be much
pleased and will tell others about
it and in this way add greatly to
publicity, and publicity is what
is wanted.
Mr.. Insinger said it was signif-
icent. that people at long dis.
tances from here knew about the
Grand Coulee. while many close
to home did not know Of such a
place.
He has gathered considerable
data from different soprces, in
Guiding Miners report to the
government a number of years
ago relative to the Columbia
plateau, the ancient bed of the
Columbia, and the eroding pro-
cesses that brought this all about.
He is taking steps with the Sc
attic Chamber of Commerce and
other civic bodies interested in
things of this nature, with the
other State officials. and with
their cooperative efforts. results
the coming winter will be had.
This will be a starter, and a
start we must have to get any
place.
He was favorably impressed
with the suggestion to construct
a scenic highway leaving direct
from town and going past castle
lake, deep lake, and on past the
Falls and other lakes to Soap
lake as the terminal. He thought
our signs were good, but the
approaches to these places should
be improved so that tourists
| would not be so badly shaken up,
or get their clothes torn off in
getting thru barbed wire fences
to get close up view. All of
the above we can accomplish
with the help of Spokane, Seattle
and other places that are inter-
ested. Let's all get our shoulder
to the wheel and in the near fu-
ture we will have something real
to show for our efforts.

MRS. J. |. ROGERS
DIES SUDDENLY
Widely Known Religious
Worker of City Died
Early Today.
STROKE BRINGS DEATH

Mrs. Mary Augusta Rogers, aged "A
years, wife of J. L. Rogers and one of
the most prominent of the women ac-
lively connected with religious work
in Kenosha, died at the family resi-
dence, 1877 Sheridan road, just before
seven o'clock this morning. Death came
as result of stroke of paralysis.
Mrs. Rogers had been in good health
and in excellent spirits on Thursday
and had entertained guests until after
ten o'clock on Thursday evening. She
was planning to retire when she
collapsed. She remained unconscious
during the night and death came
early this morning.
Members of the Rogers family were
at the bedside when the final sum
mons came. Announcement of the
time of the funeral, which will prob
ably be held on Monday, will be
made on Saturday.
Mrs. Rogers, who had been promin-
emily identified with the work Of the
Methodist church in Wisconsin for
half a century, was a native of Ke-
nosha county. She was a daughter
of the late Burlin Curtis, one of the
pioneers of the town of Pleasant
Prairie, and she was born in that
town on July 1, 1850. She was edu-
Gated in the schools of the town and
on September Is, 1874, she was mar
ried to j. L. Rogers, the wedding cere-
mony taking place in Racine. Follow
ing their marriage Mr.. and Mrs. Rogers
spent some time at the old home in
Pleasant Prairie and in 1884 they re-
moved to Milwaukee to make their
home. Mrs. Rogers was for many
years one of the most active of the
leaders of the women of the Grand
Avenue M E. church, in Milwaukee.
In 1910 Mr.. and Mrs. Rogers returned
to Kenosha county, spending a number
of years in Pleasant Prairie. They
came to Kenosha in 1918 and estab-
lished the home on Sheridan road
where Mrs. Rogers died this morning.
Mrs. Rogers had been one of the
most active of the workers of the
Park Avenue M. E. church. She was
member of the Foreign Missionary
society, the Home Missionary society,
the Ladies' Aid society, and the Wom-
ans Bible class. She was also an
active worker in the Woman's Chris
tian Temperance Union in both Keno
sha and Milwaukee. On Thursday she
had given up much of the day acting
as chairman of committee in charge
of packing boxes to be sent to one of
the home missions of her church.
A devout Christian woman, she had
given much to the church and to the
moral uplift of the communities in
which she had lived and the announce
ment of her death comes as personal
sorrow in many homes in Kenosha.
She is survived by her husband, one
daughter, Mrs. C. H. Brugger of Fond
du Lac, and two sons, J. L. Rogers,
Jr, of Oshkosh, state secretary of the
Wisconsin Christian Education coun-
Gil, and F. C. Rogers of Racine, who
is executive in charge of the Boy
Scout work in that city.

FIND WITNESS TO
DEVLIN ACCIDENT
CorOner's Jury Finds Acct
dent Victim at Fault in
TruesdeI Crash.
SPEEDED OVER TRACKS

That Edward Devlin, Who was killed
when his automobile was struck by a
Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul train
ct the Geneva road crossing at Trues-
dell on Thanksgiving Day, contribut-
ed to his own death by not taking the
proper precautions upon approaching
the grade crossing, was the verdict
of the coroner's jury called to hear
additional evidence in the case on
Friday afternoon in the municipal
court The jury had held a hearing
on last Tuesday but at that time it
was deemed that the testimony given
was not sufficient upon which to base
a verdict The adjourned hearing was
continued on Friday afternoon.
The testimony of Guy Murphy, Of
Woodwork, foreman for the Unit
ed States Standard Serum company
laboratories at Woodwork, proved to
be the most important of the hear
ing. Murphy, it developed, was the
only witness to the accident so far
as the authorities have been able to
discover.
Verdict in Four Minutes.
On the strength of the evidence
given the court and jury by Murphy
the jury was able to reach its YER
dict.
Murphy declares that at the time
of the accident he was standing. on
the east side of the ST. Paul tracks
with his wife and child, and niece and
nephew, waiting for Geneva bus to
take him to his home in Woodwork.
He heard the train approaching, he
said and he saw the headlight on the
locomotive and wigwag signal. He
