WILL BOOM ED. COE
Kenosha Members of C. A. R. Urg-
ing Former nsionAgent for
Department Commander
WIDELY KNOWN AMONG VETS

| Kenosha members of the Grand Ar
| my of the Republic have not in the
past taken an interest in promoting
candidates for Department Commander,
but his year members of the Kenosha
Post are planning to propose candi-
date for the office Of Department Com
mander. That canoldate is to be Ed.
Coe, Of Whitewater, and his name is
already being sent to various posts in
the state for their consideration.
While Comrade Coe is not member
of the Fred S. Lowell Post he has al
ways been greatly Interested in the
Kenosha post and it is but natural that
the members Of the Grand Army in
Kenosha should be among the first to
urge his candidacy. At the breaking
out of the Civil War, Mr.. Coe enlisted
as one of the first members of the First
Wisconsin Cavalry and he was with
that famous company Of men while
they were encamped in Kenosha and
since that time he has had many friends
among the men in the ranks and while
in Kenosha. Coe was always a leader
among the men in he ranks and while
he did not climb to any high heights
in the organization Of the army he has
always been considered as one of the
most popular men in Kenosha among
the members Of the Grand Army. He
has been active in the camp fires of
the Grand Army in all parts of the
state and in addition to this he has
served for many years as Pension
agent for the Milwaukee district Re
Gently he was removed from office in
order to give place for one Of the
friends Of Senator LaFollette and
since that time he has been giving
much of his time to his paper at
Whitewater. It is highly improbable
that Mr.. Coe would go into any fight
to secure the office Of Department Com
mander Of the Grand Army in Wiscon-
sin and the advancem ent of his
candidacy will be left almost en-
tirely to his friends. There is no
member of the Grand Army who
would not accept the honor Of be-
ing the Department Commander and to
this extent Mr.. Coe is a receptive candi-
date. Captain George Hale, one Of the
most active workers in Grand Army cir
Giles in Kenosha, in speaking of Com
rade Coe said: "Many of the members
| OF the Kenosha Post are DESTROYS of
advancing the candidacy of Mr.. Coe be-
cause we believe that he is one of the
men who has done much for the ad-
van cement of the interests of the old
soldier. We believe that his candidacy
would be given liberal support by old
soldiers in this part of the state.''
The annual encampment of the Wis
consin department. is to be held at
Racine in June of next year and it is
expected that the Grand Army men
from this part of the state will large
ly control the election of officers and
this fact would make the chances of
Mr.. Coe exceedingly bright.
In short time letters will be sent
to other posts in the state asking them
to take up the candidacy of the White
water man.

CAKE BAKING HINTS.

From the March 1iousekeeper.
 Macaroons and merngues can be made at home as easily as any other cake, and for the benefit of the woman who IS miles away from the baker. upon whcni she might call if he were within distance, directions age given: A cool oven is nec- essary in baking the meringues which must dry out rather than bake, and the heat increased toward the last will give a tinye of brown. This requires from three-fourths to one hour. For both meringues-which are commonly known as "lzisses" and macaroons. board should be covered with parsffine paper tackled on. When baked, remove the tacks, life the paper carefully upside down and with a brush dipped in water go over each place where the meringue or macaroon is, then with a thin-bladed knife lift each cake off. A pastry bag and tube will be found handy thing ln making these cakes, although 1t IS not necessity for the mixture can be dropped from a teaspoon and gently pressed into shape.
 Many housewives bemoan that they can not make good roll jelly cake. There is a mack in this as in nearly all other fancy bits of culinary art. The sponge batter should be turned into a paper lined pan and smoothed over with knife dipped in water. This batter should not be more than one-fourth fof an inch Tn thickness as it must not be more than half an inch thick when baked to roll nicely. Watch while baking that 1t does not crust over, and as soon as 1t is firm, remove from the oven and slip onto towel; with a sharp knife trim the edges, spread with jelly and roll up, then pin the towel over. leaving the ends free. In this way 1t will cool in shape. Should the cake look un- even when rolled, it can be trimmed after it becomes cold. Dust with pulverized sugar. QuiclSness in handling when roll ing is a necessity in this cake.

44-inch net or mule will be required for this design.
 The second model shows a charming design for either mule, net or. chif= fon cloth, to be trimmed with self ruchings or ribbon. This, too, Is five gored model. than which there is no better dancing skirt. The tucks at the waist are adjusted to give a panel ef- feet in the front and graceful fullness in the back.
 The model was made in dotted mule of pale coffee tint, trimmed with lace and ribbon of precisely the same tone and girdle of a slightly deeper shade. The lace had been dyed to match the fabric, and the whole effect was most soft and becoming to a clear skinned brunette. Double rows of the insertion were set into the sleeves bodice and skirt, while below the in sertion on the skirt were four ruch- ings of the ribbon, which also outlined the bertha in double rows. The same design could be carried out in net with ruchings of the same fabric or in Ser man valenciennes lace, which is less expensive and far more effective on net than the finer French valenciennes.
 A lovely color combination shown Tn stamped muslin of sheer quality was a border, bertha and puffed sleeves show ing shadowy yellow roses on white ground, with trimmings of yellow rib- bon picked out with tiny bows or black velvet and gold buckles.

that time. This would give me that much more time than I now had for my other pastoral duties. So 1t was argued, I could save money for the school funds and increase my time available for pro- fessional service of my church and this community. It will be seen from the above that it has never been proposed that leave the service of God for that of Mammon'; but rather that Isshould permit myself to be used to rescue the public school service from being man. monized after the fashion of other cler- ical offices in this county. "Mammonized politics. is a good term for this situa- ton, for it is the prostitution of the pubic service to Mammonism. If the peo- pie of this county would stop to think what this medieval custom of fines, fees, forfeitures and percentages as perqui- sites to their executive and clerical func- tiorarles does really cost them, they would rise in their wrath and destroy 1t. Nor is the chief cost to be found in the dollars and cents which it filches from the public funds, but in the de- moralization of civic morals and virtue by scramble for absurdly remunerative offices at every election. Men form com pines and syndicates, finance campaigns and capture offices for the sake of the money to be derived from them. All thls grows out of the absurdly remunerative perquistes attached to these positions of public service by law in the way of fines, fees and forfeitures and commissions. My friends. are not far from right in calling this the service of Mainmon." Now 1t is proposed to introduce mammon- ism into the management of our public schools, and take the chldren's bread and cast it as an offering on the altars of the priests of Mammon. My resent ment of this debauchery of the public service is such that I confess the tempta- ton to make an issue against it Is strong. I care nothing for the office so far as it's pecuniary rewards are concerned and the only terms on which I would be will ing to offer for it would be such that it's emoluments would go to another. My temporal wants are abundantly pro- vided for by the congregation whom serve. But it seems to mo that the time has come for the people of this county to wake up to a few things in their pulp lie service. The issue against mammon- ised politics will some day be made, but this is probably not the time and method for doing so. I can probably best con- serve that good end by continuing to preach the gospel of serving ones day and generation even in public office by the will of God from my pulpit for the present. So yOu may annouuce that am not in this race for the service of -'.sinmon at tho expense of the education of the children. or for the service of God.
