Could Not Cross His Wires

A member of the bar of Baltimore
relates how witness in trial suit
once "got back" at the lawyer who
had been endeavoring to "rattle" the
witness by a severe cross -examina-
ton.
At a certain point in the proceed
ings the witness suddenly interrupted
the cross-examining lawyer by ex-
claiming:
"Look here! You needn't think you
kin rattle me by askin' all them ques-
tions."
"No?n was the sarcastic rejoinder.
"No, sireew came in emphatic tone
from the refractory witness. "Your
questions don't bother me at all. I've
raised three sons an two grandsons
an I've been in training a good many
years."

bright and successful teachers and the

Protection From Forest Fires.

A plan for preserving forests from
fires has been outlined by the U. S.
department of Agriculture with regard
to a tract of 100000 acres, at the foot of
Mount Shasta in northern California.
Fire lines, patrols, tool stations, tele-
phones, notices posted, and other ne
cessary detail work are the main fea-
lures of the plan. The fire lines are
recommended to be from 200 to 800 feet
wide, on which everything inf1amnla-
BILE should be burned. Twenty miles
Of fire lines is recommended for town
ship. One patrol can cover, it is said,
at least 10000 acres daily, if he keeps
on the elevated portions of the land.
These precautions, together with the
others suggested, seem to be practical
and worth trying. The estimated
cost is three cents per acre.

What Baraboo Needs
7. RUNGE.
By MRS. CLARA T. RUNGE.

In compliance with request for a
contribution on the above subject, the
writer has to submit what seems to a
''mere woman" one of Baraboo's most
immediate needs. Anything concern
ing the welfare of children, whether
they be her own or not, naturally ap-
peals to woman. She feels it her duty
to have an eye on the schools to see
that the best is done for the young
people now growing up and soon to re-
place the present generation.
BarabOo has been fortunate in the
excellence of its schools and its teach
ers. Yet no one will claim perfection
for our system. We turn out annually
graduates, who are credit to us. Do
they all succeed in after life? How
about the members who each year
drop out of the schools before complet-
ing or even before reaching the high
school? Would it have been better for
them to continue in school? Or is the
course such that it does not altogether
supply the proper preparation for
young people who do not expect to
take a college course.
1t is no longer theory, but a fact,
we'll proven by actual experience in
many places, that manual training in
the school, beginning with the kinder
garten, or at least In the lower grades,
is wonderful help in education. Work
with the hand, interspersed with the
regular studies, is recreation to the
pupil and fits him for better mental
application, SO that the regular work
of the school is accomplished in a COM
paratively shorter time. Children are
naturally active. They want to do
things. Much of this natural tendency
is suppressed by disuse. Why not
rather cultivate industry and dexteri-
ty, while the child is young, thereby
producing helpful, capable man and
woman?

PORTAGE YOUNG MAN
MEETS SUDDEN DEATH
Popular dent at Annapcs
is-In Second Glass.

In the launch which went down in
Hampton Roads, off Norfolk, Va,
Tuesday night, were two Wisconsin
boys, one of whom was Herbert L.
Holden of Portage.
He was 21 years of age and an ex
ceedingly popular young man in his
home town, having lived there all his
life. He was an active member of all
the athletic movements in Portage,
having played on the foot ball, base
ball, and basket ball teams, the track
team, even, coming in for strong SUP
port from him.
His mother is Mrs. Susan B. Holden
of Portage. The assistant cashier of
the First National bank of Portage, is
an uncle of his, while another uncle is
Surgeon General J. B. Edwards of
Mauston, who is at the head of the
state national guard medical depart
ment.
Herbert L. Holden was member of
the second class at the Annapolis Nav
al academy.

was a distinction we'll earned. For
eleven years Mrs. Barrett has been
regular attendant at these annual
gatherings of the Daughters of Re-

all the offices of the organization.
When it came to the election there was

years the new president has been an
enthusiastic worker, filling all of the
offices in the Baraboo lodge, so that
her election was a recognition of long
and faithful service. In addition to
becoming president, Mrs. Barrett re-
ceived the decoration of chivalry.

the best held in many years. Nine past

Nothing could do more to inculcate
a poorer respect for manual labor.
Making things teaches the use of
material and tools. It develops ac-
curacy and judgment. Young people
who have had this training are better
fitted to enter industrial or business
life, as experience has abundantly
shown. Our girls, being taught domes-
tic science in school, are more helpful
at home, have a greater respect for
household matters, and will make
more Intelligent, resourceful and COM
petent housewives. Why must some
families starve on the same income up
on which others feast? Ignorance and
incompetence of the housewife is one
of the causes.
Ihere are pupils in every school who
do not learn readily, who are con-
sidered dull. Often these, for lack of
interest in the school work, become
troublesome to the teachers. It has
been found again and again that such
pupils were at the head of their classes
when it came to manual lessons. They
became so interested that they ceased
to be a sore problem in discipline to
the teacher. The manual training so
fascinated them that they were kept in
school instead of dropping out before
having acquired even reasonable ru-
dimentary education.
Our new school building furnishes
us splendid opportunity for the in
PRODUCTION of manual training and do
mestic science into our schools for the
coming year. To be sure, the equip
ment and the teachers will cost money.
But the end is worth the effort. Let
not our Beautiful Baraboou fall short
in this most important of all duties,
the education of its youth. Whatever
can be done in this direction is an in
vestment which will bring in the best
of returns.

the Union be thirteen stars, white in a
