Harking- Back to By-Gone Days
Years ago when Albert Zierot was
residing on the farm (before autos
became our chief mode of convey
ance) he maintained a carriage and
drove in style. Later the carriage
gave way to more modern methods,
and has not l.-en used for many
moons, but is still in fair state of
preservation, and was recently trad
ed to l'aul Stork on the: purchase of
a new side delivery rake. Mr. Stock
brought the carriage to town and
left it standing outside his place of
business. The young boys of the
community, always full of life and
activity, have been making good use
of it as they take buggy rides in
the ancient vehicle. "While some
ride there are others who have to
grasp the tongue and pull and still
others who have to get behind and
push, but by taking turns they have
been able to keep the vehicle going
pretty steadily without a "sitdown"
strike on the part of the workers.
Thus this ancient vehicle that was
once the pride of its owner, is serv
ing the second (and perhaps third)
general ion.
CLEANED SCOUT CABIN
From Saturday's Daily
A group of American Legion Aux
iliary members aided by Boy Scouts,
spent most of the day yesterday at
Camp Wheeler, where they gave the
Scout cabin a thorough cleaning
the iirst of this kind since it was
opened in l'.r.M. The Arbor Lodge
district camporoe is to be held there
Monday and Tuesday, and although
the troops will neither use the cabin
for preparation of meal:-; or sleeping,
they will be in and out a great deal
and a few of the adult supervisors
may even sleep there. Telephone ser
vice has been resumed for the sum
mer season and as a result of the
ladies' clean-up worU th rooms are
in apple-pie order for the big event
Monday.
A truck load of wood was trans
ported to the grounds today, for use
of the different troops in cooking
the three meals they will eat there,
and for Monday night's council fire
The city's sprinkler wagon, to which
fain of connections were recently
made for use at the cemetery, will be
rent out Monday to provide water for
dish washing and personal cleanli
ness, but drinking water will be car
ried in milk cans from a nearby
spring or well.
Final details for the camporoe
have been worked out, and if the
weather is favorable, a large attend
ance is expected. The public is in
vited to visit the camp any time after
3 p. m. Monday up to the time of
h. caking camp at 2 p. m. Tuesday.
An especially interesting council lire
program will be held Monday even
ing from S to 10.
Visitors may drive into camp, but
are requested to turn east off the
paved highway at the corner a mile
north of the Murray corner where
the troops unload, going to the
achoolliouse on the old telegraph
road, thence south a hundred yards
past the Hock Creek bridge, turning
left into the camp grounds.
