ROTON IIILL' RESIDENTS ARE "

DETERMINED T0

PRESENT ONE, CRAZY QUILT

 

Mrs. Schang, Wife of

New Organization, Contrasts Excellent
Roadway on Darien Side With Deplorable
Thoroughfare in N orwalk

 

'fl‘or four years. at least. Flax Hill
residents have watched the main
road get worse and worse without
protest. Watt-min uniting as a po-
licy seems to have failed; so we have
organized the Flux lllll Civic Asso-
ciation. for the improvement of
Roton Hill and llrookslde commun-
ities." Thus spoke Mrs. F. C.
Schang, wife of the chairman pro
tem of the organization today, dev
crying the condition of Flax Hill
road, the main artery of the soo-
tion.

In her halite, a beautiful example
of pure colonial architecture of
great antiquity, she told of the dis-
integration of the half league of
toad'that fronts the home of 600 or
to residents.

“We came here from New York
about four years ago." she said,
“and were so struck with the beauty
of the section that we bought this
house, begun in the Revolutionary
times. from Harry Stacey Benton.
“’9 didn't rent. or lease first—we
came right in as Norwalk residents.

Crazy Quilt.

“Since that time we have watch-
ed tho road get worse, instead of
improve. True, the road has been
patchdl from time to time, until
now. like a crazy quilt, it is hll
patches. 1t_needs more than patch-
ing now, though.

"‘On ereason, to me. seems to be
that the road is getting more and
more traffic every day. It is the
old highway which goes right
through to Darlen. and it is surpris-
ing the amount of through traffic it
gets. Once it enough for most
drivers. though, and they go round
another way the next time.

"We who live on the road. how.
ever. must use it. 1 am the 'chau-
feur' of our family. I drive my
husband to the station every morn-
ing, and I do all my shopping in
Norwalk. I want to deal with Nor-
wslk merchants, and I believe the
Norwalk merchants want our cus-
tom.

‘ IF BACK HURTS
BEGIN 0N SALTS

Flush Your Kidney Occasionally by
Drinking Qua-ts of Good Water

how-

 

 

No man or woman can make a
- mistake by flushing the kidneys oc-
casionally. says a well-known au-
thority. Too much rich food cre-
ates acids which clog the kidney
pores so that they sluggishly filter
or strain only part of the waste and
poisons from the blood. Then you
get sick. Rheumatism. headaches,
liver trouble. nervousness, constipa-
tion. dizziness. sleeplessness, bladder
disorders often come from sluggish
kidneys.

The moment you feel a dull ache
in the kidneys or your back hurts,
or if the urine is cloudy, offensive,
full of sediment, irregular of pass-
age. or attended by a sensation of
scalding. begin to drink soft water
in quantities; also get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any relia-
‘ble pharmacy and take a table-
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys may then not line.

This famous salts is made from
the acid of grapes and lemon juice.
combined with lithla. and has been
used for years to help flush clogged
kidneys and stimulate them to ac-
tivity. also to help neutralize the
acids in the system so they no long-
er cause irritation, thus often re-
lieving bladder disorders.

Jad Salts is inexpensive and can-
not injure: makes a delightful ef-
fervescent lthia-water drink. which
everyone c n take new and then to
help keep the kidneys clean and the
blood‘pure. thereby often preventing
serious kidney complications. By all
means have your physician examine
your kidneys at least twice a year.

ever, going over a road with holes
and cavities that shake one's verv
bones. nor do the merchants enjoy
delivering goods in this sectlon~
the wear and tear on their cars be-
ing too much.

"Opposed to this is the Darlen

and like a boulevard compared to
the Norwalk end. Just as soon as
one crosses the bridge coming from
Darlen. the shell—holes begin.

Even Worse in Winter.
"In winter, it is worse. Darlen:
even on its little back road. with
houses few and far between, al-
ways has the road ploughed clear of
snow the moment a storm ceases.
Toward Norwulk, though, the snow
just lays, and lays, and two big ruts
develop under which the road bed is
ground up.
“if a car comes the other way you
are in a fine fix, for it is terrible to
get out of the ruts. What we need
is a good read through the section."
There are no hydrants at all in
the section, Mrs. Schang says. hid
the lack of street lights is a detri-
ment.
“The place is so dark that I am
petrified every week when my maid
leaves for home on her night off.
She has reported to me several
times that she has been spoken to by
men. She is young and pretty. and I
hate to think of her going along
that dark street.
"All these matters are not the
complaint of one person alone_'Ev.
cry resident has the same story to
tell. We are united and have formed
the Flax Hill Civic association. We
will make an effort to improve the
conditions in this beautiful section.
The next meeting of the associa-
tion is to be held on Monday eve-
ning, August 10, Mrs. Schang said.

aries When Mother
Declines

MADISON, Wis" July tit—(AP).
Robert M. La Follette, .lr., will seek
the seat in the. L'nltcd States Sen-
ate made vacant by the death of his
father. He announced his candidacy
here yesterday and said he would is-
sue a "complete statement" later.

The announcement followed a

series of conferences with Wisconsin
political leaders and came a few
days after the Senator's widow an-
nounced she would not seek the
scatmade vacant by her husband.
Governor Blaine will call a special
election at a time “most convenient
to the largest number of voters."
Mrs. Laii‘oliette will devote her
time to completing her husband‘s
bigraphy, and to editorial work on
the magazinp which he founded her:
a number of years ago.

The special election probably will
be held in September or October, af-
ter the harvest season, so as to per-
mit a. large farmer vote.

Former Governor Francis F. Mc-
Govern and Roy P. Wilcox. former
State Senator from Eau Claire, al-
ready have declared for the race in
the Republican primary. John Iii.
Work, Milwaukee, will be the Social-
ist candidate.

Robert LaFollette, Jr., has been
chairman of the Wisconsin Republi.
can central committee since last fall.
His brother. Philip, is State's At-
torney in Dane Coumy, the position
his father occupied more than forty
years ago as the first step in his
political career.

Iiobert long had been his fathEr's
closest political adviser and he had
a large part in the direction of the
LaFollette presidential campaign
last year. He was constantly at his
father's side and was consulted on
every move. He is just 30 years old.

Off on the Long Trail Again!

Two Thousand Buffalo Are Movin g to New Ranges Under Shadow of
Arctic Circle—They Are Carefully Guarded —— No Hunting Allowed

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This map ,shows the route over which the big herd of buffalo is being moved to new ranges in north-

west Canada.

Above, at the left. is a picture of some of the animals; below is the new boat in which

forest rangers will patrol the river that runs through the huge game preserve.

EDMONTON. Alta. July 30.—
Thc buffalo are on the move again!

The footloose wanderers of the
purple sage are roaming north-quit-
ting tho limitless reaches of the
western prairie for the cool, shu-
dowy lanes of the Canadian woods.

'l‘wo thousand of them—power-
ful, untamed, defiant—are being
taken 700 miles north of their nu-
tural habitat in one of the greatest
experiments with wild life ever per-
formed.

At Wainwright ,Alberta, the (fan-
udian government maintains it But-
faio park. These were brought
from Montana. purchased when the
American government found its own
ranges fully stocked.

Near Artie Circle.

Now the Wainwright range is
full. And so the government is
establishing a new range, at Fort
Smith. far up in the northwest tcr-
rltory—almost in the shadow of the
arctic circle.

Surplus animals from the Waln-
wrlght range are being "transplant-
ed" to this northern field.

It is a thrilling process. For the

m \

 

buffalo do not cover ihe intervening
miles on foot. They go by train and
boat. and the cowboys whose job it
is to care for them on the way have
their hands full.

The excitement starts at Wain~
wright. Each week\ the cowboys
ride out on the range and “cut out"
a group of 200 of the obstreperous
animals. The buffalo promptly
stampede. and by dint of hard rid-
ing and much risking of life and
limb the cowboys get them headed
for the "sqtieeze."

Thrilling Sonnets.

This “squiecze” is a long. narrow
enclosure with a' fence at the far
end. Here each buffalo is branded
with a. "W", while delighted tour-
ists look on at scenes more thrill-
ing than snv roundup.

Then the cowboys guide their
charges onto specially built steel
cattle cars on the Canadian Nation-
al Railway. and the buffalo are
taken to Edmonton to the provin-
cially owned Alberta. and Great
Waterways Railway and taken 300
miles to Fort nicntnrray. on the
wild Athabasca River.

Specially decked scows, each

capable of holding 100 buffalo. are
brought to ,the docks and the ani-
mals hearded abroad. Then, push-
ed by a puffing river steamboat. the
last leg of the journey begins.

Into the Woods.

At last the scows are brought
ashore at Fort Smith. and the cow-
boys' troubles end. The gates are
opened; the men. with shouts and
much waving of arms, start the buf-
falo moving, and presently the
herds dash ashore,—to freedom.

They are carefully guarded there.
No hunting is allowed, and timber
wolves are shot on sight by a crew
of sixteen men under Chief Ranger
Bennett of the Wood Buffalo Pro-
serve. A specially built boat. “The

help them patrol the river banks.

Officials believe the experiment
will succeed. Pasture.” in the
northern range is excellent. and the
winter weaTher will be only a. little
more severe than that on the lower
ranges.

Eventually. if the herd increases,

year.
