Schuyler Long, the carpenter
and wood-worker, has Ford of
the model 1910, and it is still
going strong after Is years of
steady use. He is just now pre-.
pairing to give it a new coat of
paint. Some parts have been
put in from time to time, but
most of the gar, including most
of the engine, dates from 1910.
Mr.. Long says he can keep up
with any other Ford on the road
and can give the Dodges, Bucks,
and Studebakers a close race.
In a small town a drug store
serves as a substitute for club.
When a man selects a location
for his business it seems that
one of the most important
questions should be: How far
am l going to be from the drug
store? For example, consider
the great expenditure of energy
that John M. Booker and James
F. Royster who work in Muir
phey Hall, have to make to get
their morning coca-colas, while
Gerald Johnson and Grover
Beard, with their offices not far
from the main~ street, can get
to the fountain with hardly any
trouble at all. now offer con-
gratulations to Zeb Council that
the University's buil ding
scheme has ousted him from his
site near the power-house and
has brought him closer to where
the pharmaceutical fans oscillate
and the beverages bubble.
One of the most dignifed cats
/ have ever seen is the Maltese
giant which recently came into
the possession of Miss Daisy
Ross on Cobb Terrace. After
observing his deliberate and
somewhat pompous manner |
was astounded to learn that he
was given to Miss Ross because,
in Durham, he could not be re-
strained from chasing and eat
ing the neighbors' chickens. On
Cobb Terrace he is kept occupied
by encounters with Pete, the Nc
Clamroch bulldog. These en-
counters are mostly conversa-
tional and gesticular, since they
are usually carried on through
a screen door.
Speaking of cats, Miss Ada
Viele has two coal-black brothers
named Pluto and Imp. These
do not boast of the aristocratic
lineage of the one that belongs
to Miss Ross, but they have i'm
pressed the east Rosemary
street neighborhood with their
beauty and daring.

Small Fire
On Island

For the fifth time in nine days,
the city fire department was called
out this morning and the record
run of the whole five fires was
made. The trucks left the city hall
almost before the alarm has fin
ished sounding, and in less than a
minute the fire laddies were on the
job.
The blaze was at the home OF
Mr.. and Mrs. John Howard on the
Island and assistance from the
Island Wooden mill had succeeded
in putting out the fire before the
department arrived. Sparks from
the chimney had set fire to the
roof and the damage consists Of
about eighteen square inches of
burned shingles.
The fires of the past week have
demonstrated what our city fire
department can do in the way of a
hurry-up call. The prompt arrival
Of the department can often pre-
vent a serious fire and the Bara
boo men are getting speed down to
the minimum.

Pheasants For
Baraboo Bluffs

John Altpeter, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Oscar Altpeter, has taken two
Ringneck pheasants to the Ski Hi
farm, the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
A. K. Bassett, on the bluff. Eggs
have been ordered and it is pur-
posed to hatch them on the Bas-
sett farm and then permit the
birds to range at freedom. The
pair taken to the farm will be
given their liberty in a few days.
These are from Kentucky and it
is said soon adapt themselves to
new country. They are grown in
wild places for shooting in the
fall. Wild partridge hatch in the
Bassett orchards and in the
woods near their home. In the state
Of Washington there is pheasant
hatchery where birds Of the Chin
csc variety are brought to light
and then given their freedom on
the wild land. They are highly col
ored and make an attractive mark
for a nimrod.
The same purpoce is proposed for
the birds brought here. There is
said to be one complaint against
some Of the varieties-they are
fighters and rob the nests of other
birds. A few years ago a pair was
brought to Devils Lake State
Park and the male was so ugly it
attacked people who came along.
The birds were taken to a farm by
Superintendent Atwood Smith and
the. birds there made life so mis-
cradle for the chickens the new
Corners had to be dispatched.

CAPTURE Wolf
With Ford Car

The Ford car has been credited
with doing a great many remark
able things, but here is a new one
told by the Durand Entering Wedge
of wolf slaughtering on Lake Pc
pin while covered with ice the past
winter.
According to the Wedge Oakley
Olund and Ole Frotehus went out
on the lake in their Ford to look
after some fishing they were carry
ing on. They had not gone far
before they saw gray wolf on the
ice ahead of them. Being without
firearms did not daunt them but
they stepped on the gas and went
full speed toward the wolf. The
wolf at first acted as though he
thought he could overturn the car,
but in this he was mistaken, as the
car ran over him. y The WOLF in
jured somewhat, got up and start
ed to run again. This time when
the car approached him he lodged
and the car flew past him. The
car did considerable slipping and
sliding, but the young man persev-
cred and would occasionally run
over the wolf. Finally the animal
showed signs of exhaustion and
the young men redoubled their eff
forts hitting the wolf several times.
The luggage carrier on the car was
then released from its position and
with this for weapon the young
men struck the wolf several times
until life was extinct.
The wolf was taken to Durand
and County Clerk Richardson paid
the bounty which is authorized by
the state. <.s.....s. Il,
