740 Coturnix Quail
Loosed in Paddock
Seven hundred forty coturnix
(small* quail were put out Satur
day in Paddock township north
of here by state game commis
sion representatives. The quail
were distributed about 25 to a
section in an area five miles wide
and six miles long, generally
laying between the Eagle and
Redbird creeks.
“This is an experiment to de
termine if these quail will adapt
themselves here,” State Sen.
Frank Nelson said. The quail are
being distributed in about 80
counties. Rock and Brown coun
ties received the birds about a
week ago.
These quail are quite small.
When grown they average about
two-thirds the size of the bob
white quail.
The birds loosed in Holt are
now five-weeks-old, and the con
servation people expect the birds
to rear a brood of young this
summer.
Quail of this species presently
inhabit large areas of Asia, Ha
waii and Japan.
Game officials urge residents
to give the quail “every advan
tage" and report nests or broods
of young or band numbers of any
dead coturnix.

Gardening Days Are Salad Days
If you’re a home gardener, surely nothing’s more satisfying than
being able to enjoy the products of your green thumb. Gather in the
“fixings” for a crisp, cool salad bowl, and you’ll be well rewarded
for your gardening efforts.
Fill a basket with your choicest garden lettuce, vine-ripened
tomatoes, cucumbers, scallions and radishes. Wash and chill these
garden treasures, then toss together lightly with a perfectly seasoned
dressing.
One of our favorites is the Tomato Soup Dressing, given below.
It has a tantalizing flavor that lends real zest and sparkle to garden
fresh salads. This dressing is easy on the calories, too, for it’s made
with the non-caloric sweetener, Sucaryl, rather than with sugar.
Simply by the use of this sweetener, calories have been slashed from
45 calories to just 28 calories per tablespoonful. Best part is, you
just can’t taste the difference. For, without adding a single calorie,
this sweetener gives cooked and baked foods a naturally sweet,
sugar-like flavor.
Whether you’re weight-watching or not, we think you'll enjoy
this sweet yet tangy dressing:
TOMATO SOUP DRESSING
(Low-Calorie)
VS cup salad oil 2 teaspoons Sucaryl solution
1 cup vinegar or 16 tablets, crushed
1 can (lOVj ounces) 2 tablespoons chopped onion
tomato soup V2 teaspoon garlic salt
Combine all ingredients and blend well.
Makes cups or 44 t ' poons. Each tablespoon contains 28
CALOTTES: 0.1 grr.-n nml-’in; 2.6 grams fat: 1 1 grams carbohy

mediately at his home station,
(Two follow workers had conven

Dobbins' return to Appleton*.
He sent his bride of a few hours
to the hotel in a "hack" and scur
ried fo the telegraph key. where
he kept vigil until 3 a m,, the
next day.
A news item in the Appleton pa
per might have read: "Following
the ceremony, the bride and
bridegroom went their separate
ways”.
Mr. Dobbins stayed on ns sta
tion agent at Appleton for four
years. His wife's mother l>eeame
ill and requested that the couple
come to Osmond to live. They did.
Once Mr. Dobbins had an op
portunity to be station agent at
O’Neill for the Great Northern

but he declined
Thirty-seven years ago the
couple began farming northeast
of Page Four years ago they re
tired and moved into town.
Mrs. Dobbins was tiom at Elm
hurst. Cook county, Illinois. De
cember 16. 1887.
Mrs. Dobbins was the lone girl
in a family of nine children. She
has four living brothel's: John
Brunckhorst of Page, Ernest
Brunckhorst of Inman, Robert
Brunckhorst of Osmond and Wil
liam of Lusk. Wyo.
Mr. Dobbins was born at Un
derwood, la.. September 5, 1880
He has one living brother, en
nings, and one living sister, Mrs.
Elsie Elers of Portland, Ore.
Son Dies in Infancy
The Dobbins became the par
ents of two children. Their son,
Cecil, died of pneumonia in 1911
at the age of 18 months. They
have one daughter, Mrs. Thomas
(LaNora) Holliday of Orchard.
There are tw’o grandchildren,
Holly and Beverly Holliday. The
Holliday family lives five miles
east of Page and 1 M> miles south.
For that train ride to Benson
the couple wore the best w'edding
finery even though the cere
mony was to take place in a drab
courthouse building.
Mrs. Dobbins’ wedding gown
of China silk included 15 yards of
goods. Tier-upon-tier of ruffles
were featured in both the skirt
and waist. Much yardage of
lace was employed in the yoke
trim and in other convenient
places. She also had the match
ig camisole, petticoats, unmen
tionables and nightie of the same
material. Lace trim, of course!
The ensemble w'as made by a
professional dressmaker who
would have pulled her hair if she
had known the nuptials were to
be performed in a spitoon-infest
ed courthouse office.
Tailor-Made Suit
Mi-. Dobbin's suit cost a nifty
$75 and was tailor-made. Coat
was of doeskin, pants of broad
cloth. That same suit, viewed
Sunday by well-wishers at. the
Dobbins residence, is "good for
another 5 years," the owner de
clared proudly.
At Sunday’s reception Mrs.
Dobbin was wearing a heavy gold
bracelet which had been given to
her by her brother, Henry, now
deceased. Heni-y had seen his
sister to the station when she set
out for Minnesota that day in
late June, 1907.
She wore the bracelet t*>th at
her wedding and on her golden
wedding day.
Mr. Dobbins is water eommis
ioner at Page, reads the meters
and keeps the pumping function
ing. He is now 76; his wife is
69. Mrs. Dobbins suffers with
asthma.
"Only the asthma, which often
makes her feel miserable, keeps
her from being the hardest work
ing woman in town." the master
of the house explains.
Both are good gardeners and
the yard reflects a love for flow
ers.
The couple was presented sev
eral gifts, a small purse of cash,
numerous flowers, including a
bouquet from Mr. and Mrs. El
vin Cronk of California.
Mrs. Dobbins baked the angel
food cakes served to the guests
together with ice cream topped

Pacha and Smith are high-type
men: we feel that Smith, hy vir

serve the district."
Elmer McClurg: "The petitions
in behalf of Smith 150 names •
solve the matter for the board;
Holt has twice been redtstrieted;
the basic idea is that each dis

Ora Yurges: "Smith knows
machinery well, can teach men

Norris W. Coats: "Smith’s
home is two miles from where
the county machinery is kept.
This proximity could be vital in
an emergency. The preponder

Smith might he regarded as an
'election of a sort’ hy the hoard."
