Lloyd Brings
Football Score
In Freshman =

The great comedy thrill in "The
Freshman, the Harold Lloyd pic
ture opening at the AL Ringing
theatre tomorrow afternoon for a
three day run, is the last few
minutes Of play in a college foot
bali game in which Lloyd makes
a ninety-five yard goal dash said
to be the only one of its kind in
gridiron history.
The Freshman is Harold, only
son of one Mr.. and Mrs. Lamb,
due to become the college goat.
Instead of academic honors, he
goes to college seeking to shine
as a prince of good fellows. Hs
wants to be the college hero, and,
accordingly easily becomes the
butt Of every prank concocted by
the schools best jokers.
In the biggest football game of
the year Harold is put in ten min
utes before the finish as even less
than a hope. He's only the water
boy, Aidded into thinking he's a
substitute. But every sub has been
fed to the opponents. a husky crew,
and it's either take a chance on the
Lamb or forfeit the game. With
the score 8 TO 0, and only a few
seconds to go. Harold makes a
touchdown that would make the
famous Red Grange turn green
certain to make the audiences
want to stand up and cheer.

miniature drama Among the
Missing are also on the program.

The GEM CITY
One Of the Towns In the State,
Named For An Early French
Trader

Baraboo is we'll named the Gem
City. The beautiful lawns, the neat
residences, the fine public build-
ings, the clean business section all
proclaim the attractiveness of the
place.
Barah9o is located on the Bara-
boo river. in boat-shaped valley,
the two ranges Of Baraboo bluffs
forming the water sheds. The riv-
er enters the valley through an
ancient canyon at Ableman and es-
capes through another gorge at the
Lower .Narrows.
Baraboo is supposed to take its
name from Jean Baribeau who
snapped beads and baubles with
the Indians at his trading post at
the mouth Of the Baraboo river
Raribeau was FTenchman and
people with the same name reside
in the northern part of the state
to this day. Whether or not he
ever naYigated the river as far up
ais Baraboo is not known. The
name was first applied to the
stream, then to the hills and la
ter to the town and city.
Among the first to settle where
Baraboo is now located we're Abra-
ham Wood, who had a squaw for a
wife; Eben Peck, his wife the first
white woman in the Baraboo val
ley: Wallace Rowin, who was as
sociated with Wood in erecting
the first mill, and others. The wa
terpower in the Baraboo river was
the loadstone which brought these
first pioneers. An effort had been
made to erect a house before eth
er of the above came, but the In.
dians chased them away and tore
down the cabin.
In 1S47, the quarter section Of
land where the business SecIl0n OF
the city is situated was purchased
from the government and plat
was made by Charles o. Baxter, an
early surveyor. He was a great
admirer of ]. @. Adams and the
place was named for him. Bara-
boo Rapids, and Brooklyn were
used to designate the place but all
these were cast aside in favor Of
the name which the city now bears
The Water Powers
Ever since the beginning the
water powers have been a source
of profit to those who established
industries. A long list might be
made Of the factories which have
been profitable, all of which have
changed from the original ones.
The river as now harnessed fur

wild animals. He has been a
friend to them in the long hours
spent in winter quarters as well as
on the long runs on the road. He
doctors them, trims their names,
manicures their nails and keeps
them In the pink of condition. In
talking with Mr.. Stiles, he said;
Il have known many times that
a wild animal-and that takes in
lions, tigers, Ieopards, pumas and
polar bears, viii he to sick to work
and try hard to stand on his feet
and go thru the transfer cage, but
when arriving at the chute, simply
refuse to go any further, because
he knew that he was unable to keep
pace with the others in the group.
A wild animal has no use for a
weakling, and when one is sick, he
has to be kept away from the 9TH
ers. You ask what makes them
sick? Well, there are a number of
reasons, but mostly the change of
water but oft times il is the wealth
er. In this country they are very
risky at night, when it is cool, but
during the day, they don't feel that
way, as the dust and heat, even
though there is nice air, affect
them and harms their breathing.

Col Rupert, who is head of brewery
