program is in charge of Gladys Ry-
croft.
A number of the recent graduates
and former students have become in

pose to add a social feature, which will
no doubt prove great attraction, by
serving lemonade under the algarobas

HO TONG VICTIM
OF PRACTICAL JOKE

1t appears that Ho Tong was the
victim of a pre- stical joke on Sunday.
He made out a correct report of the
San Antonio-L usitana game and gave
it to friend to bring to the Adver-
tiser office That friend thought that
he would be very smart, so copied
Tong's report and inserted different
score. Just exactly where the joke
came in it is hard to say, but there
must have been joke somewhere, so
let us all laugh. Hal ha!

Joe McIlree who was injured some
weeks ago from a fail through a de-
fective sidewalk, has filed bill with
the city covering the amount of his
monetary damage and lost time.
These cases will probably be more
frequent hereafter then they have
been in the past. We are of the
opinion that the council should pro-
vide for the issuance of improve
ment bonds and build sidewalks all
over town, charging the cost up to
the property owners, and giving
them about three years to pay for
the walk. Most property owners
you'd then be able to get cement
walks and the burden would not be
great. This is the practice in other
cities and should be adopted here.

500 Reward. &lOO

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at
least one dreaded disease that science
has been able to cuae in all its stages
and that is catarrh. Halls cltarrh
cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity.
catarrh being cons titutional
disease, requires a constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh cure is
taken internally, acting directly up
on the blood and mucous surfaces OF
the system, thereby DESTROYING. the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient sti ength by building UP
the constitution and assisting ma
ture in doing its work. The pro-
prietors have so much faith in.its
curative powers that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that
it fails to cure. Sem for list OIL

Roads Under Construction
Highway Division of State
Geological Survey Build
ing Model Roads

We often hear it said that most of
the road taxes are wasted, and this
statement is not contradicted by
observing people. The saving Of
these wasted, funds depends upon
the knowledge the people have of
proper methods Of building roads,
and there is no better way of getting
this knowledge thar. to see "a road
actually built in proper manner. !.
In a number of places widely
scattered over the state the High
way Division or the state Geological
Survey is building model roads of
various kinds. The localities where
the roads are built furnish the labor
and material and the state furnishes
an engineer to direct the work.
They will construct roads by put
ting clay on sand roads, and sand on
clay roads, to show the Importance
of thoroughly mixing the clay and
the sand. The two will be, plowed
and dragged several times in order
to get as even mixture as possible
for an uneven substance will never
wear evenly.
After the sand and the clay are
thor roughly mixed the road will be
dragged just after the first rain vets
it down.. This last dragging will
compact the road and puddle the
clay so it will bake hard just like a
clay field does when it is worked
while too wet. &-
These ros DIS will be built in several
places. Stone and gravel roaGs will
be built by methods designed to
make themeas permanentas ossible.
They will be laid in courses of care
screened stone. the large stone on
the bottom and the smaller on top.
This screening is emphasized as it is
necessary to provide. that substan ce
of even quality of which road must
be made to wear evenly. -
If a macadan road. is laid with
large and small stone mixed the
small stone will grind up first and
holes will be formed.
All these model road emphasize
two fundamental things: first that a
road must have proper drainage, and
second, that the surface provided
whether of sand clay or .stone-must
be as even in order to wear evenly.
Roads are under construction or
will soon be started at Baraboo,
Monroe, Sparta, Lake Mills, Ocon-
onowoc, Wau paca. Coifax. and. sever
al other places.

The Job an Energetic Student TOOK TO

Jack had paid his way always. Out
of the poverty of his childhood he had
fought his way through the university
After graduation he felt he must see

ton he had he CROSSED the pond"

He thought he would just go down
to- the steamship, go on, board and see
how it would seem if only he were go

AS he wandered over the big liner
his attention was attracted by a cry
ing baby. The mother was travelling
alone, and while she was attempting
tails incident to the beginning of an
ocean trip the baby had resented the
neglect be felt he had received and
was crying The mother was at her
wits end. ~ ).
Jacks kind. heart prompted him to
say: Let me take the baby, madam.

This request, so unusual from a

stranger, naturally filled her with, sur

Jacks care was extremely satisfac-

A Neat Postal.

Getting Rid ofWreck

Believing that the wreck of the
steamer Sevona = is dangerous to
navigation the government has
ordered that it be destroyed and the
work is oeing done by the Reid
wrecking company of Duluth. The
Sevona it will be remembered went
down among the islands during a
heavy storm on the lake two years
ago.

e. Bryan, 4. K.

Office reports show that 7O2
teachers" were graduated from the
several normal schools of the state
during the past year. The report,
however. does not state how many
of them could extract the cube root
from a pan of bread dough or the
net product of a well regulated
Jersey COW. This reminds me OF
what an old fellow for whom I used
to work IN country printing office
once said. His remark, confessedly
more forcible than elegant, was
ITO hell with your methods. what ]
want is results. "
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1908-06-25

And that again calls TO my mind
the remark of one of the pupils in
the public schools the other day con.
corning a supposedly successful
business man,
"Never graduated? And he such
a smart mani" -:
And there's one Of the greatest
troubles with the educational SYSTEM
Of the present day. Professors,
superin tendents and instructors APP
pear to lose sight of the fact that it
is not graduation alone that makes
the man or woman. The good Lord,
nature or some other force must
have been at work before the school
master took hold.
Education is a mighty good thing
and graduation is commendable and
desirable, but don't teach the stud
ent that this is all there is to life.
This town, today, has graduates of
the high and normal schools posi-
bly,, that are not orth their sat
from practical or productive
standpoint.
Don't make the mistake of snppOs-
ing that book learning" is all that
is required to make finish, useful
man or woman. Prentice News.
