GRIPPING MYSTERY
 IN coMPsON FILM

'Tis said that the dyed-in-t -the-wool movie fan, who brides himself upon always being at least two reels ahead Of the projection machine when a feature picture is being shown and can forecast every twist punch and angle of the story, is in for a big sur prise when he views Betty Compson's latest starring vehicle, "Ramshackle House. which comes to the Liberty Theater tonight
 Never a dull moment" is the mot to of the producers of "Ramshackle House, and the vivid picturization of Hubert Footner's popular novel more than makes good the boast. It is a murder mystery, but not of the con- Venuonal type which depicts the crime in the first reel and leads the audience through a maze of confus- Ing details until the guilt is finally fastened upon someone ouifs above sH@|lc' on. This is a powerful human interest picture witH mystery back ground; the story of a young girl who finds that the man she loves is oelng hunted down for the foul mur. der Of his business partner, hides him Ill the forest to save him from being lynched by an overrighteous mob and then' with her back to tue wall. nghts single-handed the overwhclm- Ing forces of Law, Money, Public oplnlon and one of the greatest viii ilans ever portrayed on the screen.
 Beautiful Betty Compson is the star of this spine-tingling tale and glVes one of the best performances of her career. John Davidson. famed TOT his heavy roles, plays the sin lster malefactor; Robert Lowing is the male lead and an excellent SUD- porting cast.

1t Was Ladies. Night.

It was Ladies Night at the meet
ing of the Mems Civic club last
Tuesday night. A delicious supper
was served, and, considering the
roads and weather, there was very
good attendance.
Heretofore the club has been able
to depend for its speakers upon re-
sorters here on their vacations, and
most profitable and entertaining
series of meetings have resulted.
Now the club faces the necessity
Of bringing at least part Of it's
speakers from considerable dis
tances, and this will increase the
cost. The experiences of the club
thus far has demonstrated that the
price of SOC a plate, which it had
hoped to maintain is too low. It's
suppers have been managed with
extreme care and frugality, but
despite that fact the price was not
sufficient to cover the expense. 1t
was decided Tuesday evening that
for the future the club will meet
but once a month, and the price of
the supper increased to 75c until
such time as its income shall justify
the club in lowering it's prices.
1t is certain that all who attend
ed Tuesday evening felt repaid for
Drawing the storm, and were also
convinced that it is worth while for
the club to bring into the com
munity month by month speakers
Of the ability Of the Rev. Beale, of
Milwaukee, who addressed them
that evening.
Rev. Mr.. Beale stressed the
necessity of working together if
community life is to be healthful
and significant. AS bodily health
and effectiveness are dependent
upon the working together of each
organism and each organ in the
body, so is the health of the COM
munity and the world dependent
upon the ability of men and women
to reach out the arm of co-opera-
ton and good will to one another
and grip hearts and hands in the
cause of the common good. Mr..
Beale knew how to tell good
story, and also how to make i'm
passioned appeal for the things
that give to life its strength, whole
someness and beauty.

Another musky lost out on Lit
tie st. German lake last week
when w. F. Yeslin of Toledo, Ohio
came along with the right lure and
at the right time This being Mr.
Yeslin's final vacation period in the
North Woods he of necessity adj
mired to take home a musky-or
for that matter to furnish feast
for the other guests at Tobin's
where he usually stops during his
outing. He is a noted musky man
and puts more back than he saves;
believes that live fish in the wa
ters will be worth more than a
dead one in an ice house. And he's
right.

Now Charley Bent has lived up
in the Cisco waters west of Land O
Lakes for the past thirty years and
during that time has seen some
mighty fine catches of bronze backs
brought from the Cisco waters. He
was down Monday from his resort
and says that bass are hopping to
the lure in great style and most
any kind Of an angler can secure
his quota if he but flips the'lure at
the right time and the right place.
There is logic in his statement. He
at this time had over half hun
dred guests at his camp and will
possibly be open all this month and
running to almost capacity. He
has been working after the fall
bunch of anglers and cutters who
keep their vacation period until
late in the year when everything
points toward a bully good outing.
Nature alone at this time gives one
a thrill that will last the winter
months through-North Wiscon-
sin hardwoods cannot be beaten
anywhere for their hues and brac-
ing atmosphere.

when you hook and land your first
musky; it never fails in making
you wish that all your days were
fishing days and no comeback when

and you have to go home. Mrs. j.
A. Sauerman of Chicago, a guest of
Twin Lake Lodge near Phelps
fought and landed her initial big
fin the other day. While it weighed
fifteen pounds it gave better and
snapper scrap than a fish twice the
weight. The lady has broken into
the ranks of big fishing and has

cents under quotations prevailing the

Poultry to reach the market in best
