Seeing Door County and
Other Wisconsin Points
Continued from last week,

macadan road. up hill, down vale
and along the beautiful shores of
Green bay viewing the scenery
as we went along and stopped for
dinner at Sturgeon Bay, the
hustling little city of Door county
and the county seat of same.
Here we viewed the ship building
yards where between 200 and 300
men are employed. At the time
a submarine chaser which had
seen service in the World War
was at the docks undergoing re-
pairs. We looked it over from
top to bottom, as it is interesting
to see how an affair of that
kind is constructed. A sailor on
the boat said it's cost was $50, 900
and the speed % knots or about
25 miles per hour. Three huge
gasoline engines consume 85 gal
Ions of gas per hour. The stove,
dishes and kitchen utensils were
all secured to the boat or packed
away in compartments in such
manner that the rocking of the
boat would not disturb them, as
were also the beds and tables in
the adjoining room. All was ar
ranged to take up the least pos
sible room. A Nah Jong set laid
on the table. This had probably
been used during the dark and
dreary nights out on mid-ocean.
The guide presented the writer
with a sailors cap which was
found on the submarine chaser
and which now adorns the wall in
the American office.
A visit was next made to the
large fruit packing plant where
apples are Grated and shipped
and where they are also pressed
and made into cider. OF course
the good cider was sampled and
a couple of jugfuls purchased and
taken along home. Asked if only
a few varieties of apples are
raised in Door county, as
that fruit as well as cherries are
grown there so extensively, the
superintendent of the plant said,
f" no, we get between Is and 20
varieties to pack.
AS a newspaperman the writer
called at the office of the Door
County Advocate and became &C
quainted with II. J. Sanderson,
one of the publishers of that
newspaper, a very pleasant
gentleman TO meet and from
whom we gained considerable
information about Door county.
The newspaper is SO years old
and Mr.. Sanderson's grandfather
was one of those who started it..
Among other things Mr.. Sander
son told us that there is a small
island out in Green bay uninhab-
tied except by about 200 deer.
Being unmolested these animals
are so tame that when visitors
come there they can go right up
and pet them.
The Sturgeon Bay editor also
stated that a book entitled
"0ld Peninsula Days by H. r.
Holland, Cedar Hill, Ephraim,
which is truly Door county, and
by Door county author, has just
been put on the market to be adj
ded to the collection of interest
ing works by Mr.. Holland, who is

Commissioner Gust Anderson
was to blame for the other ferry

Having reached Minnesota soil
the little Henry" snorted and
pranced along in poppy style
over the good roads to Pine City
and it was not long before the
route from our county seat to
Askov and home was covered,
ending the most enjoyable vaca-
tion the editor and his family
have ever had.

BRYAN's FAvORITE STORY

AS Bryan was fond of telling
it, a preacher and lawyer were
talking shop. The preacher said
to the lawyer: What do you do
when you make a mistake in a
speech before a jury?" Said the
lawyer: 1T depends upon the
character of the mistake. If it
is a slight error, | let it go. If
important, | correct it. What
do you do when you make a mis-
take in a sermon?" Il follow
your plan," replied the preacher.
IF it is a serious error | correct
it. If slight, ! let it go. For in
stance in my sermon Sunday |
started to say that the Devil is
the father of all liars, but what
| did say was, The Devil is the
father of all lawyers. However,
it was a trifle and | let it CO."

visited Washington Island also
but arrived too late at ellis Rock
to go over on the ferry. Being
stormy on the lake the ferry
made but one trip that day and
this trip probably was made
only for the reason that the
Islanders had a picnic that day
and Judge from Green Bay who
was to be the speaker was taken
over on the ferry. The return
trip was not made until the fol-
lowing day. Aside from doing
much fishing on Washington Is
land the Icelanders and Danes
there are also much interested in
Holstein cattle. deriving part of
their living from them.
Washington harbor is a deep
water harbor on the north side of
Washington Island, where in
1848 Capt. Amos Saunders built
a pier and supplied boats from
Buffalo with cordwood and fuel;
where the oldest house in Door
county, erected in 1852, and
known as the White House" is
standing deserted, aged and
worn; where for three-quarters
kof a century steamboats, have
stopped while enroute to Chicago
and other lake ports and where
the Goodrich Transit Company's
boats still drop anchor" during
the tourist season.
BY the way Mr.. Rance of the
Rance & Sorenson Show Company
who recently showed in several
Pine county villages, told the
writer that he was the first man
TO ever show on Washington
Island. being there for the first
time in 1896 with a patent medi-
cine company and twice since.
Late Wednesday afternoon the
journey started back over the
peninsula again from Deaths
Door and ellis Rock through
Garrett Bay, Ellison Bay, Sister
Bay and Ephraim through the
large and beautiful state park to
Fish Creek where we stayed over
night at the tourist park.
The peninsula is well timber
ed. The flora is not extensive, but
the forests (some of which are
Of virgin growth) of white and
red pine, hemlock, balsom and
hardwoods are beautiful. Several
stands of beach show a forest
type that is rather unusual.
Dense stands of white cedar are
found along the shore and on the
well moistened lodges. while in
some of the fields, juniper and
more rarely the shrubby yew
(Taxus canadensis) give the eff
feet Of formal planting. The
trails and pathways, which have
been constructed through the
fields and woods to the points of
chief interest in the park are
always delightful to the nature
lover. With the exception of
three distinct bluffs. the land
over the entire park is gently
rolling.
Ephraim, the adjoining village,
is the home of the oldest Mora
Wan congregation in the West.

more than planned-on a most
delightful sightseeing and re-
creational trip.
Two more days were spent at
Withee with friends. Being in
Withee two Sundays we had the
opportunity of hearing and reap
ing the benefits of good sermons
by two pastors of the Danish
Lutheran church-the first Sun
day by Rev. P. H. Petersen, their
local pastor, and the second Sun
day by Rev. Chr. Stockholm from
Fredsville, Iowa.
The Petersen family who were
former resident of Askov, leaving
here eight years ago for Califor-
mia and later Michigan, appear to
be very contented at Withee to
which place they came about two
months ago. The people there
are also well pleased with the
Pedersens. The two children
Alma and Harald-were small
tots when they left Askov. Alma,
entering her third year of high
school, is a bright and pleasant
young lady-the real type of
American girl-and Harald, en-
tering his second year of high, is
just at the overgrown age and
enjoys his bicycle riding.
The A. p. Andersen family,
also former Askov settlers, have a
fine farm at Withee, having re-

modern dwelling house on same.

and others send greetings to

Monday morning the journey
was started homeward, back in
our little Henry" and accom-
panied by Mrs. Peter Johansen
who had spent the time visiting
her folks. Highways No. ga, q
and IA - were followed on the
return-to No. 35 just north of
Centuria. The drive along No.
35, north of Frederic, is about as
pretty as any of them, winding
in and out through thick forests,
and a good road to drive on. A
few miles west of Grantsburg
which is on No. 20, the st. Croix
river was crossed on a ferry and
Minnesota soil reached. Here we
got little touch of local poll
tics. The man in charge of the

of this organization. 1t would there
fore seem inconsistent on our part
to do anything that would interfere
with it's fullest efficiency or detract
in the least from it's chances of re-
ceiving an adequate appropriation
for the proper management of the
department.
| would therefore recommend that
the North Dakota Tuberculosis AS
ISOLATION refrain from asking the
legislature during the present ses-
sion for our usual appropriation, be-
leving that by this action we can
better retain the good will Of the
people and more fully maintain our
identity as an Independent public
health organization. To meet this
uetlclt, REIMBURSEMENT of our pro-
gram might be necessary as we'll as
!; reorganization of our working for
ces which should not be so very diff
ficult. l would urge your earnest
consideration of this matter.
In conclusion l may be permitted
to congratulate the Association on
it's past years work, on its material
growth, and on its prospects for an
increasingly growing service in
quantity and quality as the years go
by.

only hunt places where birds are
unusually plentiful and only hunt

many birds can be killed. These
places where chickens were very
numerous are on decrease without
any question of doubt. Why burn

Work of tuberculosis Association
Address by Dr. Grassick Grand Forks, President,
before annual meeting in Bismarck, Jan. 49, 1925

some degree of pride we point to
the State tuberculosis Sanatarium
at San Haven with its beautiful To-
cation, fine equipment, excellent
management, and flattering results;
feeling that our organization had
part in its making.
Last year we made an appeal to
our workers to donate the whole or
part of their quota from the seal
sale for the erection of a Children's
Building at the State Sanatorium.
| The response to this was most flat
tering and the Association has at its
disposal a fund of $4,000 ready to be
used for that purpose when an OPP
portunitv arises. If the Legislature
now in session would appropriate
enough for the erection of such a
building at the State Sanatorium.
the Association would equip it and
then the state would have a home
for its tuberculous children Caring
time and in the right way would
save us from caring for them at the
wrong time when they are advanced
and mostly hopeless. A Children's
Building is one of the needs Of the
tuberculous movement in our state
and the Association is pledged to its
support.
After severing our official rela-
tions with the State Board of Health
it was recognized that some medium
of communication between the Head
quarters of the organization anc
the members scattered Throughout
: the state was much needed and the
"Pennant,' monthly pamphlet, was
started. Its first issue was financed

quite strongly through press arti-
cles, literature, and on the platform
the employment of Public Health |
Nurses. TO demonstrate the practi
cal efficacy Of the plan nurses were
employed and detailed for duty in
nearly every county in the state.
Our nursing service has continued |
to be one Of the strong features of !
our organization and one that is
credited with marked concrete re-
suits.
1t was found that at the State Tu-
berculosis Sanatorium number of
young people were being treated,
who from various causes had been
denied the privilege of receiving a
fair education. The Association re-
cognized this condition and working
with the Superintendent and Board
of Control equipped an Open Air
School, engaged teacher, and de-
frayed all the expense connected
Herewith This school has been
kept open whenever in the judgment
Of the superintendent it was deemed
expedent. This has meant much,
not only in an educational way, but
in keeping up the morale of the
handicapped family" who are COM
PEELED to take the cure.
In 1917 the Modern Health Crusade
movement that has swept the coun-
try was introduced into number
of our state schools, and in 1919 was
made official by the Superintendent
of Public instruction. 1t is dis
tinct activity of the tuberculosis
Association and aims to teach corr
rect health habits by doing. When
that are marching on, to war against
disease, become our future citizens,
We may feel sure that their influ-
ence will be felt in increased life
efficiency.
In 1921 as a direct result of our
nursing service and of an analysis
OF their field work reports, a new
feature was undertaken. In differ
ent parts Of the state from economic
country far removed from medical
centers existed. The Association I'M
dertook to visit these out of the way
places and to provide ethical medical
and nursing service to those in need.

Some people who are opposed to

not look at it from game conserva-
