Governor Sarles in his message
to the legislature points out
wildly the needs OF the state to-
day. The state educationalin sti-
buttons are in need of large APP
preparations. The work of edu-
cation nthe state hasprogressed
rapidly, in fact SO rapidly that,
additionalfacilities are necessary.
1t is believed that the necessary
funds for those institutions can
be raised by a direct tax. Gov.
Sarles believes that the present
game and fish law of the state
should be repealed, and a better
one enacted. The fish and game
of the state must be better pro-
tected. He also stated that he
was in favor Of the legislators
taking action on the primary
election law. Wisconsin and
Minnesota have primary election
laws, but they are different. While
in Minnesota but u part Of the
officials are nominated by that
law, in Wisconsin, the law pro-
vides for the nomination ofevery
officer by the primary election.
The governor does not. commit
himself as to which he favors.
Gov. Sarles is an irrigation en-
thusiast. He recommends the
providing bylaw ofan additional
state officer to be known as
state irrigation engineer. Some
irrigation must be done in this
state by pumping from rivers
and there are vast Ignite coal
supplies in the hands OF the state.
The governor explains that he
would not try to act the part OF
the dictator, but wouldrather be
advised by those ripe in business
and political experience.

That oriental tale of Sindbad the

to the legend of st. Brendan, the Irish
saint According 70 the legend, st.
Brendan sailed the ocean for seven
years in search of the island that had
once been Adams Eden. During that
time he regularly revisited the island
Of Sheep, where the sheep are as large
as oxen; the island of Birds that are
really fallen angels, and another island,
which is really a big fish named Jas
con, trying to his tail into his
mouth. st. Brendan .sed 10 encamp
on the fish on Easter day and go on 20
the birds on Easter Monday. He found
the Eden island at last, but no one has
seen it since, though it appeared on
seventeenth-century maps and in an
ghteenth-century treaty between
Spain and Portugal Probably Irish
monks took this legend with them u
the east in the ninth century.
