the O! s N o ) SHORTS MUSICAL COMEDY e DOUGLAS | NEWS DICK McCORMICKS RETURN Surprising all their friends here, Mr. and Mrs. Richard McCormick and four sons returned on the Co- lumbia last evening with the inten- tion of reestablishing their residence in Douglas. Five month it has been since they sold their properties here and left for the sunny south, or in other words—Valley Ford, Sonora County, California, where a sizable dairy farm with everything modern await- ed them to live on and manage for | their own. But Dick may have lived toolong in Alaska, practically all his life having been spent on the island, around mines and mining, certainly no farming of any kind, would in- terest him; maybe they just missed the rain too much to say away; any- way they are back, and glad to be, they said.
