Sudoury EStariâ€"That Texan who scratched the mosquito bite on his foot with the muzzle of a loaded shotgun was quickly relieved of that itching sensationâ€"and also his foot. Migrating ducks swarmed down to feed in the cabbage and rutabaga fields with such regularity the farmers apealâ€" ed to their Congressman and the United States Biological Survey to have the ducks branded "predatory animals," so they could be shot. Then the State Game Commission, sworn to protect wild fowl heard about it, and furnished aerial bombs and sky rockets to frighten away the ducks. Skagit County‘s cabbage is said to represent 85 per cent. of the United States output. Punch (London, Eng):â€"Wireless, we are told, will soon be used to ate germs.

It proved to be a very interesting evenâ€" ing. A club of this nature seems to us to fill a need in this community. The ladies seem to be quite capable oi forming clubs and guilds and other cenâ€" tres Of, social interest and of doing helpful work together, but a men‘s club is a move in a direction. We wish it «every success. Mr. Thomson (High School stafft) was electâ€" ed president at Tuesday‘s meeting; Mr. Milas Clarke, viceâ€"president; and Mr. Russell Vokes, secretary. The plan is for the men to mtet the first Tuesday in each month. Mr. Purdy gave a most interesting and inspiring address on the "Elements of Success in Life," which was followed by a very full and free discussion among the men present. A vote of thanks to the ladies for the exâ€" celient supper provided was tendered at the conclusion of the evening.
