Day, when boat in which Ed
die Neumann, Jack and Leo KLEIN
enhagen, well known young men of
the village, capsized. Eddie was
drowned and his companions were
saved only after strenuous efforts
to retain hold upon their over
turned boat and giving Henry
Lackmann, who saw their plight
from shore, time enough to reach
them in another boat.
The three men had gone to the
lake early Thursday morning hav-
ing planned the fishing trip sever
al days previously. Before their de-
parture they discussed the POSSIBLE
ity that the high wind which had
blown all night and which was still
blowing with considerable velocity
might make it impossible for them
to get onto the lake, but finally de-
cided to make the trip. They
launched their boat without mishap
and, with an cupboard motor driv-
ing the small craft through the
high waves, proceeded to a favor
lite pike bar, where they spent two
or three hours fishing.
Having caught a nice string of
fish the three young men decided

to be unconscious; at least he made
no effort to regain the boat when
Leo called to him that the boat was
all right. Shortly afterward his
body sank from sight, only to float
back moment later to Leo's side,
underneath the water. Leo, feeling
something strike his legs, reached
down into the water and got hold
of Eddie's hand, which he chung
desperately until Mr.. Lackmann
had towed the overturned boat and
the three men to shore.
When Mr.. Lackmann finally guild
ed his boat to the capsized one,
Leo, who had managed to get the
anchor rope of the capsized boat
twisted around his right arm, in
the hand of which he also was tow
ing Eddie's body, hooked his left
arm over the rear end of the Lack
mann boat and hung on grimly UNI

so that he could reach bottom with
his feet. He assisted in setting

All effort to revive the apparently
lifeless one, Leo walked a consi i

and Leo started for the nearest

life might still be saved. Leo was

For Your Health

FOP your Health
There are many interesting his
torical instances of the preparation
and use of health foods.
Such story is told of the MAX
ing of butter in England in the 18th
century, THE farmer poured cream
into cloth, the corners were gath
cred together and fastened securely
and the whole was then buried in
the earth at depth of seven to
twelve inches, and taken out at the
end of twelve hours, when the
cream was found quite firm. It
was worked, a little water having
been poured over it, and the but
termilk Immediately separated
from the butter
Today, as was true then, butter
and buttermilk are regarded as es-
sential foods. Buttermilk is inval-
liable for it's necessary vitamins,
minerals and protein, and it well
may have a more universal use.
Buttermilk makes a delightful
cold drink and may be used in
cooking wherever sour milk can
be used.

ed toward shore, with the motor
again furnishing the power to drive
the boat along. High waves threat
ened continually, but nothing un-
toward occurred until Eddie at
tempted to turn the boat in an
other direction, when a high wave
struck the craft and tipped it so
badly that it shipped a large guam
tity of water. Each succeeding
wave thereafter added more water
to the small crafts load and it sud-
denly began to sink.
Realizing that the boat was sink
ing Eddie, Leo and Jack all slipped
out of the boat into the water. AL
most Immediately after they had
done so the boat suddenly capsized.
All of them losing their hold on the
craft. Leo succeeded in getting
hold of the front end of the over
turned boat and Jack chung to the
rear end. Despite the fact that the
boat continued to roll and toss in
the waves, both were able to re-
tain their hold until they were
rescued. However, they were con-
tinually being submerged by the
rolling Of the craft and both were
on the verge of exhaustion when
rescued. Jack was several times
rolled underneath the boat and
had an especially narrow escape
from death.
No one will ever know just why
Eddie was not able to retain his
hold on the boat as did his COM
panions, but inasmuch as there
were several bruises about his head
and face, it is believed that he was
struck either by the boat or by the
motor and rendered unable to help
himself. Leo states that Eddie
foated away from the boat a dis
lance of several feet, and seemed
