MAIN STREET WHITTLINGS “Bub” Holloway came into the Journal office, Friday, to tell the story of Pell Clayton’s swans. He said that when. Pell went out on the ice toward the open water where the swans had been swimming, he could see only one swan, but finally saw the feet of the other sticking up out of the water. Catching hold of the swan’s feet, Holloway said, .Pell pulled out a42 pound pike which had swallowed the swan and had the pike on display in the Waves restaurant. That story differs slightly from the other one —which states that on Saturday, Harry Cleveland and N. G. Skidgell coaxed the swans from the water food, and -VltlTth* assistance of Heriray caught them and kept them from escaping until Pell arrived. Pell says they are now in a pen al his cottage on Syracuse lake, and will remain there until much colder weather, when he wilt put them into Inaiey’s barn. Pell said if he could arrange proper aup lay cases, he would put the swans and his wild ducks, which he took from the lake some time ago to the faun, on display at the tune of the “Ag” exhibit, Jan. 3, 4 and 5. Dr. Fred Clark and Pell Clayton went rabbit hunting, Tuesday morning. Pell shot at an animal which iseemed to be disappearing back of a log—and found on appi caching it closer, that he had killed a possum which was caught in a steel trap. Dr. Clark shot the only rabbit out taking the morning. Last Saturday one of the negro enroliees of the CCC camp inquired in the Journal and Electric office for radio tubes. As none which Roscoe Howard had in stock were the right kind, M. W. Macy was phpned, and he said that he would obtain the necessary tubes and take them to the camp Sunday morning. When Macy arrived there, Sunday, the negroe said; "Oh, 1 done thought you all wasn't coming and 1 bought a trunk.” 0 HAVE BIRTHDAY PARTY.
