HAS 1T BY WRONG END
Milwaukee Journal Claimed
June First Was Not Open
Day for Game Fishing.

An article in Tuesdays Milwau-
kee Journal states that everybody
violated when they fished June LIST.
Their Interpretation of the law is
wrong. Here is what it says about
the opening of the game fish sea-
says: open season June 1 to March
1" Their article says:
Fishermen went forth Sunday
in numbers, seeking game fish, all
assuming that the open season be
gan Sunday, whereas a careful
reading of the state law disclosed
that June 1 is still in the closed
season. The legislature provided,
"A closed season for game fish is
established from the first day of
March to the first day of June,
both dates being inclusive The
black bass season remains closed
until June Is"

Collision of Autos.

Three cars were mixed UP In a
collision on Railroad street Sunday
afternoon. The Chevrolet sedan
driven by R. D. Mcleod and a
car driven by a couple Indians first
came together near the Hotel Com
mercial. The Indians Ford lost a
hub cap which twirled through
the air until it struck a window IN
the hotel office, demolishing the
glass. The Mcleod car failed to
straighten up from the first coils
ion and ran into the Seivright car
standing near the depot. Both OF
these cars were somewhat twisted
up, but were able to navigate to
their destinations. At the time OF
the accidents, traffic was very
light. A great many of the auto
accidents now happening are due
to carelessness, too swift a pace
on the streets or inability of the
driver to properly handle a car
with safety to the public.

MANY FIRES LAST WEEK
Loss to Timber Lots and Es-
cape in Burned Buildings
from Forest Fires.

Several bad fires in timber
growth and the narrow escape Of
many buildings from destruction
resulted during the dry spell of
last week. Many men were called
out from number Of sections to
fight fire during the latter part of
the week, and for the timely rain
of Sunday night the conditions in
this part of the state would have
been serious.
The first fire reported was that
near the Frankel summer home on
Catfish. That was partially sub
dued after it had ruined a fine
growth of timber. Following this
fire was the one which broke out
near The Tilden resort on Meta
and Cranberry lakes. This was a
very bad fire and but for quick
work would undoubtedly have
caused damage other than to grow
ing timber. Thursday afternoon
fire which was started in the Cath
Ollie cemetery preparatory to get
ting the graves in condition for
Memorial Day, broke bounds and
did much damage around Silver
lake.
1t is claimed that a big fire was
raging Thursday and Friday over
near the Big St. German lake sec
ton, and that several resorts were
in danger Of being burned out.
This fire is said to have been the
heaviest near the McGregor and
Cummings resorts on that lake.

Returned From Europe.

After a two months visit at the
old home district in Russia-Poland,
where he viewed the disasters due
to the late war and militant gov
eminent, Moses Frankel of Eagle
River arrived Sunday in Eagle
River, well content to end his days
in a real honest-to-goodness coun-
try. His visit to that country has
shown him the disastrous effects
of monarchial government, unrest
among it's people, and starvation
situations appalling to the Ameri-
can. The value of an American
dollar in that country as against
Russia-Poland currency is so
pointed that one wonders whether
the intrinsic value that country
has placed upon its currency is
really worth the time in having
it printed and circulated. One
might just as well use the old-time
Indian Wampun for all the real
value currency bears over on the
other side of the pond. Mr..
Frankel has improved over his
trip, but his statements point to
one thing, and that is that Ameri-
ca is the only country in the
world, where one has freedom,
cash value to it's currency and a
full stomach when the day is end
ed.

CARRY OUT MEMORIAL
Memorial Day in Eagle River
Showed Spirit of Citizens
in Hero Remembrance.

With long line of autos,
marching soldiers and patriotic
people who followed the band from
the foot of Railroad street to the
cemetery, it is said to have been
one Of the finest tributes shown
our American soldiers of three
wars on this day of days when
mother, father, wife, brother, SIS
ter and friends gave Of their mem.
cries to those who made the SUI
preme sacrifice for their country.
Following the arrival at the
cemetery, the program given was
of such a splendid character that
it showed energetic work upon the
part Of the American Legion and
Auxiliary, those patriotic organi-
cations who had Iabored for true
memorial to the soldier dead.
The principal speaker was Har-
old S. Crosby of Rhinelander. His
delineation of what Memorial Day
meant to the American people car
ried weight within itself. These
younger speakers who assisted in
the program gave credit in rendi-
ton and choice of topics. The
ceremonies at the cemetery were
of that type which brought home
to the living what they owe in
memories to the dead

lave FAILED TO BREED
FL Herd at Trout Lake Said
70 Have Decreased Instead
Of Multiplying.

r. is now claimed that the large
,.,l Of elk which the state con
,,otion commission placed in
a5o state park over at Trout lake
IN Villas county some dozen years
-o has decreased rather than in
a1 and they viii be given
or,v TO cities in the state who
have zoos. The Minocqua Times
If last week says:
"Tbe breeding of elk on the
st.+o came preserve at Trout Lake
has been a failure, according to
e /. Harrington Of the Wisconsin
Conservation Commission. After
twelve years Of breeding the state
now has less elk at the preserve
than were originally shipped there
from Montana. Mr.. Harrington
thinks it best to distribute the elk
now on hand, thirty-eight in all,
among the various city zoos in the
state.
Many years ago the state receiv-
ed a couple carloads of elk from
Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and they
were placed in the park at Trout
lake. On account Of their having
been in a wreck during transpor-
tation from Wyoming, and the
changes in climatic conditions,
most Of the shipment died. Later
on several cars of elk were again
shipped to Trout lake, and it had
been hoped they would increase
to such an extent that this section
Of Wisconsin would have an asset
in animal life to be proud Of.
Now if the item taken from the
Times is true, the park will be de-
peted of elk and an attempt made
to add more deer to the many
hundreds Of acres now under
fence, The park lies alongside the
Boulder Junction highway and
during the summer has furnished
much interest to people who could

HE REPRESENTED Villas
Judge Griff Thomas of Hur-
ley Died Monday of This
Week.

Municipal Judge Griff Thomas,
for many years a dominating fig
ure in Iron county politics, died
Monday morning at Powell, where
he had a large farm. A few days
ago, he suffered a stroke of par
alysis.
Judge Thomas was So, and was
born in Oshkosh, but made Hurley
his home since 1886. He served in
the Wisconsin assembly in 1917,
taking office when Assemblyman
Edward A. Everett, Villas county,
resigned. He served as municipal
judge since 1907 continuously, ex-
cept for one term.
Judge Thomas had IS brothers
and sisters, two of whom were
killed in the World war. William,
one brother, lives in Rhinelander,
and another, George, lives at Clear
Lake.
Although he had no training as
"a lawyer, he was an exceptionally
shrewd judge and decisions of far
reaching Importance were upheld
by higher courts. On a number
of cases, he dismissed defendants
in manslaughter cases and created
quite a furore here, but in one of
the cases he was upheld.
