Three Notes
Promise
of Addition
Local Girl Singers
Thrilled AT Nod of
Merle Potter, Critic

Three thrilled girls were buckline
down to rehearsals of their SONG
repertoire with new vigor after an
unexpected, long-awaited "break"-
the kind that more than often has
given the story book twist to the
careers Of obscure performers
when at st. Cloud they were prom
ised chance at something bigger
by one Of the Twin Cities ace
theatre critics.
The girls are the Three Notes,
local trio of sisters EUnice and
Phyllis Svenneby and accom-
PIANIST and songster LaVerna
Holler who pleased Merle Pot
ter, Times-Tribune movie crit
ic, enough last week SO that he
gave them the nod they've
awaited.
The chance to appear before the
critic came when they were invited
to sing before the st. Cloud Rotary
Club last week on an entertainment
spot landed through st. Clouds
radio station KFAM,o
"Mr. Potter seemed enthused ov-
er our singing" Miss Holler said
this week. "He said that if we let
him know a few days before hand
he could arrange an addition for
us. It's evidently a radio addition
he has planned. We're all pretty
thrilled"
Mr.. Potter contacted the girls
right after their performance, in
quired about their organization.
And from what can be gathered it
won't be long before he will be
arranging for that addition. For
the girls plan not to let the offer
grow cold.
Already they were hitting it up
on their arrangements, have laid
plans for new costuming because
1--WE want to appear dressed alike"
Were gaining on our standards"
Miss Holler said. People seem to
like them, and in addition we add
q few Of the latest tunes The
girls work out their own arrange
ments, and the three sing in the
act while Miss Holler does double
duty accompanying at the piano.
Old hands in the unit are Eu-
nice and LaVerna who three years
ago were in the original trio that
included Marion Arneson. Last year
they lost Marion, Phyllis was re-
cruited to the outfit. All this sum-
mer they've been singing each Sat
urday evening over KHAN at TOO
Saturday night Jamboree program.
They weren't minimizing the bene-
fits they've received from singing
over this station. 1T builds up our
each time," said La
Verna.

Returned From
Eastern Journey
Viewed Niagara Falls,
Worlds Fair-Attended POul-
try Congress at Cleveland

A view Of Niagara Falls from
the Canadian side by night and a
trip through the Cave of the Winds
muffled in wet weather wear, were
high points of interest for Mr.. and
Mrs. George Aldous and son,
George, who returned from a
months trip in the east last Thurs
day evening. Late in July they
had gone to Cleveland to attend
the 7th World Poultry Congress, an
international poultry show. They
were accompanied by Mr.. and Mrs.
A. F. Achilles, of st. Paul.
From Cleveland they headed east
to New York City, it's World Fair,
and Washington, D. c., where they
visited the Cathedral. In that
section they viewed the battlefields
at Gettysburg. From there they
travelled to Niagara and then into
Canada. They visited Old Fort
historic spot.
In Canada they went to Callen-
dar, Ontario, tourist mecca since
the arrival five years ago of the
Dionne CUNTS. They're
were Mrs. Aldous COM
ments this week, on the five girls.
"They were in their play pen with
their mother when we saw them"
she said. Crowds line the place to
look at them, and one woman told
them she had been there five times
before she got to see them. They
are on display" for half an hour
at a time. Behind one-way glass,
the little girls can be seen but can
not see their admirers.
From Calendar they travelled
through Ontario, headed south for
their return home.

40 Year-Old
First Edition
At Library
New Hampshire
Sentinel Published In
1894 Rare Copy
PRINTED IN KEENE
Interesting Events of
Country's Early History
In Issue

A rare old first edition Of the
New Hampshire Sentinel, publish
ed in the year of George Wash
ington's death when Federalist
John Adams was the second Presi-
dent of the United States, came
into the possession of the Bryant
Library this week.
The paper is q four-page,
handset 14O-year-old sheet pub
nsifed in Keene, New Hamp-
shire, March 20, 1899. 1t was
brought to the Library by Mrs.
Harold Dean, in a collection
that included early Sank Cen
tire Heralds, gathered from the
papers of the late Jennie b.
Rice.
On the masthead of the old sheet,
well-preserved despite its nearly a
century and a half, is the volume
1, number 1, designating it first
edition. 1t was published in Keene
every Saturday by John Prentiss,
at the Old Printing Office. Simply
it's motto: my Country's Good
A Faithful Watch Stand" carries
the gospel of this early publisher.
History is treated lightly by con-
temporaries, and Prentiss, disre-
garding all the by-play and COM
promise over the site for a Federal
capitol, states simply at the bottom
of a column: Congress, it is said,
at the next session will meet at
the city of Washington"
In that statement is embodied
the one thing that is foremost in
this early governments rise, the act
of compromise. In 1900 Washing
ton became the capitol city for
these United States.
The entire front page deals with
an important state paper from Con-
gress, report from the committee
on the petition against the Alien
and Sedition Laws.
On politics the paper ran thru
a series of bills passed by Con-
gress. One, the American Seamen
protection bill, read and committed,
hints at the grave turn of affairs
that lead to the War of 1912 with
Great Britain.
It's significant too that re-
port was read by the President
at Congress on the list of priv
ate armed ships to whom COM
missions had been issued since
July, the year prior. In all there
were S65 privateers, the fore
runners of our modern Navy,
armed with 1723 guns.
Most startling piece of foreign
news is report on the death of
Napoleon Bonaparte, the then ris-
ing Corsican corporal to place
in the sun Of France. The para
graph states: "Of the death of this
extraordinary man, we have receiv-
ed many accounts. They agree in
stating, that Bonaparte having con-
vened the Arab Chiefs at Cairo,
for the purpose of communicating
to them his plans for opposing the
hostile Beys and Pachas, the envoy
from the Bey Of Tripoli, drew a
pistol from his girdle and shot Bon
aparte dead; that a general mas
sacre of the French officers and
soldiers ensued; and that the con-
sequences were, the advance Of the
hostile Beys, and the capture of
Alexandria by the Pacha Of Rhodes,
assisted by the English It is now

Group Medicine Practice
Ruled Lazv Violation in State

The fraternal order charges each
member $12.50 a person as annual
dues. OF this, one dollar quarterly
per member is paid to the doctors
both physician and osteopath-for
the medical care provided lodge
members and their families. The
money is paid the doctors irrespec-
tive of which one attends the pat
lent and regardless Of whether the
family has received any medical
care during that time. The lodge
designates that time. The lodge
designates and hires the profession
al service of the physician and ost-
eopath and controls the compensa-
ton paid them.
DR.. Dubois explained that
the board in 1887 made objec-
ton to the state president of
the fraternal order following
which the practice was dis
pensed with in Minneapolis, st.
Paul and a number of other
cities within the state.
In answering the boards first
question as to whether the prac-
tice is illegal, Burnquist said:
1.-THE right of a fraternal order
to furnish sick benefits is not 9TH
erwise impaired if it complies with
the other laws of the state, but it
is the designation and control of
the physician in attendance upon
the patient that is most objection
able.
Insurance against medical and
legal expense is free from objec-
ton when the patient or client is
allowed free selection of his doctor
or counsel. The fraternal order or
lodge is jeopardizing its corporate

Sank Lake
Yields Prize
Winning Fish
Five Sunfish Weighed
Four Pounds And
Eight Ounces
OTHER FINE CATCHES
Six Pound and Four
Pound Eight Ounce
Bass Caught

Fishermen on the lakes of this
community have made some very
fine catches this year, and quite a
few were winners of prizes for their
prowess in the piscatorial art.
Higher water levels in all lakes
have improved fishing conditions
and larger fish are being caught
this year than for several years.
Among those who caught prize
winners in Sank Lake were Mr.. and
Mrs. D. w. Lackey, 126 West Grant,
Minneapolis, who enjoyed some
splendid fishing here during the
latter part Of July. They camped
at G. L. SINNERS resort and on a
recent postal card to Mr.. Simmer,
stated that five sunfish caught
while here were entered in Wits
contest in Minneapolis.
The five sunfish tipped the
scales at four pounds and eight
ounces. Mrs. Lackey, who en-
tered them i'm the ladies' con-
test, received three lawn chairs
as fourth prize of the week, and
on August 3rd won the grand
prize for the month, a kodak
worth $S5. This latter prize
was offered for the best look
ing string Of fish.
Fairy Lake also gave forth some
large fish this year, among them
a six pound black bass caught by
Jim Benson, Sunday. Clarence
Nathe and Rod Carpenter caught
a fine string Of black bass and
Great Northern pike at Fairy Lake
early Tuesday morning. On this
string was a black bass which tip
ped the scales at four pounds and
eight ounces. Another large bass
and a fair sized G4eat Northern
pike, besides a number of ordinary
sized fish completed the string.
Fish-of-the-week item goes to
Jim Benson, youthful Gilman of this
city. Jim came out winner in a
tussle with a bass Sunday that is
the biggest on local record this
season. It's a six-pound offering
that gave him a real battle at Fairy
Lake. Companions with him were
his nephew, Bobby Murphy. Of St.
Paul, and Henry Anderson, of this
city, and between the trio they got
two ether bass and pickerel in a
couple hours fishing. Excited Sun
day over his stroke of fortune. Jim
fondled his catch friends said.
Now he's going to have it mounted.
MAY be long time before I get
another one like it," was his COM
ment.

Back Burke Proposal.
A representative of the ornamental
iron industry urged the committee
to approve amendments to the act
as proposed by Senator Burke,
Democrat, of Nebraska.
B. w. Stonebraker Of Roanoke,
Va, said "the entire industry rep
resented at meeting of number
of trade associations, had indorsed
most of the changes proposed by
Senator Burke, including establish
ment of new administrative
agency to replace the present board.
'The act is founded on a false
premise-assumption of employer
guilt Mr.. Stonebraker asserted.
There can be no progress toward

Labor Committee, George Googe,
Southern representative of the
American Federation of Labor,
blamed the N. L. r. B. for a strike

He said that despite the fact the
A. F. of L. had been certified as
collective bargaining agent for long
shoremen at shipyard there, the
board entertained a c. I. O. petition
for certif1cation.
Our boys determined that the
board was an organizing agency

Evades Posse in

Fugitive Is Sighted
Seven Miles From
Scene of Search
By the Associated Press,

HAYWARD, Wis, June 19.-An
elusive, quick-triggered slayer of two
Hayward tavernkeepers who doubled
as deputy sheriffs today led weary
army of possemen through the wild,
rough country of Chippewa River
f1owage after giving a brief glimpse
of himself near dusk last night
District Attorney Jay C. Davis
has identified the fugitive as Ray
Olson, 35, a man of large stature,
with thin face and broken nose,
whose life history Davis is attempt
Ing to unravel.
Use Plane and Hounds.
Possemen yesterday used an air.
plane and bloodhounds without re-
suit, securing Cranberry Island in
. the f1owage, where they thought Da-
Wis had taken refuge. But as day
light faded, Bill Metcalfe, a resort
Operator some seven miles from the
heart of the search, reported he had
seen Olson travelling down a fire
lane.
Several hours before that author
tiles found suicide note, signed by
y Olson, in a rowboat on Hay Creek
near the fire lane. Since the fugi-
tive was seen later officers believe
Olson left the note in an attempt
to throw them off the trail.
The note read:
whoever finds this boat, please
return it. I am ending all my
troubles forever.
Ray Olson"
Sheriff George Seehuetter dis
patched a score of his 200 deputies
IN automobiles to the fire lane-a
'slash through the forests to check
flres-but they were unable to find
traces of the fugitive.
Then a heavy wind and electrical
storm forced them to abandon the
search until this morning.
The area. which looks to resorters
for its livelihood, now that the tall
timber is gone, has few telephones.
and a high wind storm last night
put most OF them out of commission.
Twice Escaped Bullets.
The fugitive twice has escaped
the bullets of possemen. The first
time, Deputies Fred Scott, 46, and
Carl johnson, 81, were shot down as
they surprised him in the shack of
John Blue Sky, Chippewa Indian.
He picked up the pistols of Scott
and johnson as deputies exhausted
their ammunition, and fed. An hour
later he shot it out again with two
other deputies, with no bullets TAX
ing effect. That was Saturday noon.
He was not seen again until last
night.
Authorities questioned Olsons wife,
detained by a traffic officer who
originally stopped Olson to question
him about license plates. She was
quoted as saying Olson had served
two prison terms, but was otherwise
uncommunicative.
