Miss Bernice Tripp, who was a heroine in the forest fire at Spooner, last October became the bride of Fred Sheska of Spooner, Wednesday evening at South Bend. Miss Tripp was on duty as operator in the tele phone exchange. She remained at her post until the fire had burned over half of the town, when she fin- ally fled for her life. She summoned relief from nearby towns before telephone connections were severed, and thus saved many lives. There is a touch of romance in Miss Tripp's marriage to theSpoonerman, their acquaintance having begun in the Minnesota town just before the fire.

Gentilly is a small town in the south- eastern corner of Polk county. Be- fore taking the agency for the cheese, Knute Roe asked A. W. Par- kin, state cheese inspector, who re- sides at Pine Island, for his opinion of the product and in reply Mr. Parkin says: “I have nothing but praise for Father Theillon and the cheese he is representing. The Gen- tilly cheese-maker received highest honors for the highest average score in the six nionths educational cheese contest in 1909 and second highest in 1910. The contest was conducted by the dairy and food commission of which I acted as judge, Gentilly, scoring above 96 points.” Attend the extraordinary suit, coat and dress sale tomorrow and Monday at the Berman Emporium.
