.IIJ!E'' IS ONE HAITDY MAN

Supreme Arcanoper "Charliil" I-.reMaster proved that he is a resourceful man when the Hoo Hoo grove committee and party made the trip into Ilumboldt County'a few weeks ago. The tourists reached a spot along the Eel river a few miles from the Bolling memorial grove. They saw an attractive stand of timber across the river. There was no bridge and the stream was too deep and too swift to ford across. But "I-ree" rose to the situation. Slipping behind a giant redwood he shed his outer garments and plunged into the river. The water was eold. He shivered. But once in he could not turn back. Carrying his clothes at arm's length above his head he half swam, half walked, to the opposite shore. There he again resumed the habiliments of civilization and made a casual inspection of the tract. As a result of his investigations this grove now is being considered., among the others, as the Hoo Hoo memorial.
