JUST FISH STORIES
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. p

Who caught the musky and who
caught the pike is the question
now being raised by friends of Mr..
and Mrs. Anton Dick who have a
summer home at Phelps. Anyhow
it isn't a question Of who caught
EN-, but it is a fact that Mr.. and
Mrs. Dick landed a 22-pound musky
out of Kathan lake west of Eagle
River the other day, and a short
time after came along with rec
ord-size walleye. These people love
the woods and waters Of the North
land, and certainly are to be given
the honors due a real sportsman
and sportswoman. They believe in
taking a few of the big boys and
leaving the smaller fry to grow up
into man-sized game fish. They
have lived at Phelps for the past IL
years during the summer vacation
season, returning to Milwaukee for
the winter.

SCARCITY OF CHICKENS
Prairie Chickens or Grouse
Not Very Plentiful This
Season According to the
SportSmen.

Sportsmen in this section of
Villas county report that during
the four days Of shooting Of prairie
chicken Or grouse, which opened
last Saturday and ended last even
ing, very few of the birds were
found and there is no reason given
other than that last summer there
appeared to have been a migration
to other sections by the birds.
Two falls ago there was mighty
good sport among the birds espec-
tally in the Tamarack and Deer
skin country. Last spring there
were quite a bunch of chickens re-
ported, but later in the summer
they appeared to have disappeared.
Most every hunter who has followed
this kind of sport the past four
days claim there are no birds; only
occasionally a small flock seen
where a year ago hundreds were
making their headquarters. A num-
Der of hunters drove over toward
Marinette Saturday after grouse,
but report them as being not very
plentiful. To five men the bag of
birds numbered two.
Whether the severe winters have
anything to do with the birds
migrating, or lack of proper feed
ing grounds, is not known, except
that there amt any,"

If Congress wishes to boost postage rates
in order to give the postal clerks raise in sal,
aries, we would suggest that the increase be ap-
piled to third class mall and that it be made a
hummer of boost. If postage rates on third
class matter were made so high to be prohi-
btive it would not only save long suffering
public from having it's mails flooded with use
less advertising and other circulars, but would
save millions upon millions of dollars annually
wasted in more or less useless propaganda. The
saving to the government in handling this class
of mail would pay the increase in salaries the
politicians want to give the postal clerks

"put it to 'er straight! The other night ne told
group of club women in his home town of New
Ulm that delinquences among children because
they were thrown together in 10y rides" were
primarily the fault of the parents who permitted
them to have the cars to take these rides, and
did not pay sufficient attention to the way the

the Judge but coming from man who has seen

heard queer mixture of praise and blame spill
d on the subject of the Redwood Falls Commercial

whom we have talked agree with us. There Is
nothing the matter with the Commercial Club ex
oept the members! They all right when they
remember that they ARE members but chiefly
they don't and stay calmly at home when a meet
ing is called The Club has had several of the
very best of the city for its officers during
the past few years. We (by 1--WE" is meant those
of us who pay our dues, promise toy elect
them with blare of trumpets and loud promises
Of what we will do to help. Then we slump! And
we stay slumped until it comes time for these
men who have struggled all through the year
without any help support, to state that it is
time somebody else got under the load. Then
there is more trumpeting. more promising and a
repetition of the same. We admit that the Com
mercial Club has done lot for Redwood Falls
but it is the OFFICERS who have done it in
nearly every instance, and not the MEMBERS.
With the exception of the Park Board which func-
tons both for the Club and for the State few
committees have done anything worth writing
home about. We have seen the past presidents
putting things over by their efforts when
they should have been relieved by the commit
tees of men who were too busy to give the mat
ter attention. Too busy to do the thing which
should be done for the good of the AoP home
town.! We have bunch the present president
won't stand for that sort Of membership and
we hope he won't!
