Founded in 1908, the Farmers and Merchants moved to its present site in 1921. Additional expansion was completed in 1955. The bank had Its beginning with Samuel A. Connell, a Milwaukee attorney who came to Menomonee Falls one day a week to practice law.

Here is his account of how the raging waters swept away seven mem bers of the John Wesley Johnson family). By MORRIS NICHOLS As told to The Associated Press FORT STOCKTON. Tex. IT' I woke up at 5 and it was raining real hard. Then water knocked the door of my motel room open.

I jumped out of bed and put my pants on and I started for the next cabin because I knew the Johnsons had children. 1 hollered at John get your kids out of here. a flood I Cancel Some MU Plays MILWAUKEE The illness of Fr. John J. Walsh, director of the Marquette University Players theatrical group, has forced the cancellation of a number of plays at the Paul Claudel outdoor theater.

Leo M. Jones, assistant professor of speech at the university, will take over direction during Father absence. He has been granted a two-month leave by the university. Father Walsh is reported suffering from exhaustion. Cancelled are sticks" scheduled to run tomorrow through June 26 and the production of "American and "Sand by Edward Albee which were to run June 27 through June 30.

as well as Eugene "Before have also been cancelled. An original musical, "In Old which was to open July 2 has been cancelled. Production will continue on Thornton "Skin of Our which will be directed bv Jones and will run July 15-31. told him to give me three kids and try to make it to high ground. He said he couldn't open the door, the water was hitting the door so hard, and he told me to go around back.

The water was chest deep then I walked or swam around the cabin and was in the garage when the big wall hit. I was trapped. I finally got a hold of the door and pulled myself free from the garage. The water was over my head then. I could see the water rushing out there, turning over cars like they were toys.

I tried to get on the roof of the motel but I pull my self up. Finally I turned loose. I thought I was going to die. It washed me about 300 yards, turning me over and over. I caught a hold of a telephone pole and straddled it.

A car washed in and pinned me to the pole. I looked back and saw all of the Johnson kids up on top of the motel. John had put them up on the roof through a back window. The motel started crumbling and it went over and everybody was gone. I knew the kids would die and I couldn't help them.

Nobody could help them. Then the water started splashing over my head and I turned loose of the pole. I wont about a quarter of a mile and I was able to touch ground. I found two of the Johnson children. They wore both dead.

I was completely dazed. I was hurt, cut, and beat. I found the highest place and sat down on a hill and prayed. They rescued one of the Johnson boys. He is the only survivor.

Their daddy was a big strong man. He might have made it but he probably tried to save his kids and was lost. As far as I know there was not another person in that motel alive. You imagine what happened when that wall of water hit. People were drowning and you just do anything for them.

Women were looking for their little children.

194 right of way in Waukesha, advertising land for sale, does not violate federal regulations, according to William A. Reinhardt, right of way chief for the Waukesha district highway office. One of the few exceptions in the regulations holds a property owner can put up a sign advertising the land for sale. G. H.

Bakke, state highway commission chairman, confirmed Reinhardt's statement. It makes no difference whether the landowner is a public or private body, he said. No action will be taken, according to Bakke. Bakke said he think the sign was very effective from the seller's point of view. Reinhardt said the district office did make tw'o errors.

The sign was erected mistakenly on the roadway shoulder and had to be moved later behind the right of way fence. Reinhardt also said the district office failed initially to get a written permit from the Madison office of the commission. The sign advertises for sale more than 100 acres, on both sides of Hy. 1-94, that was part of the planned Maryknoll subdivision. The highway commission bought the farm between Sunny Slope and Moorland rds before it was subdivided.
