The reason why some towns grow
is because there are men of push
and energy in it. who are not afraid
to spend their time and money to
boom their town. They erect sub
tancial buildings, organize stock
companies and establish factories,
secure railroads. work for public i'm

their power to induce people to To-

of their city, they write about them
in every letter, they send circulars
and newspapers to all whom they
think they can get to visit the city
and when anyone visits them they

love with them and their city at
once. 1t is enterprise and everyone

Business Course Needed.

In the talks at the Commence
ment Exercises at the Opera House
last Friday evening Slpt. of Schools
S, A. Oscar and President of the
School board T.. N. Clausen pointed
out the need OF establishing busi-
ness course in the High School.
Figures were given showing that of
the graduates that went out of the
school about four to one took up the
business course in preference to
college work and il was for this
reason that some training should be
given along that line. The suggest
ion was good one and should be
carried out by the school board as
soon as arrangements can be made.
The cost of maintaining this course
will amount to something but it will
be money well spent and will do
great amount of good.

Special Rates Old Subscriptions When Paid in Advance
HOSPITALS NEEDED
Advanced and Durable Cases
of Consumption Must
Be Isolated.

The need Of hospitals to care
for advanced and incurable cases
of consumption is SO urgent that
the Wisconsin Anti-Tuberculosis
Association has started state
wide movement for the establish
ment of such institutions. The
state tuberculosis sanatorium at
Wales is for very early cases
only and even if it were not al
ready filled, it would be wrong
to admit advanced cases, which
would hinder the recovery of
persons in the early stages.
Tie cure of an early case is
largely an individual problem,
concerning the family infinitely
more than it does the state. The
advanced case is a social pro-
blem, concerning the general
public, because one consumptive
in advanced stages spreads the
disease to more innocent vic
TINS than a whole army of in
cipients.
The association desires every
legislative body, from state legis-
lature, county board, city coun-
Gil, to village and township board
to give it's assistance.
A numo Ger of cities have al
ready started definite work,
among them being Kenosha,
Lacrosse, Madison and Racine.
The interest in the work is
steadilg growing.

The new Comet which was
first seen in east Africa was
plainly visible here during the
past week. 1t was first seen
last Friday evening just after
the sun had set at a point above
the horizon and little north of
the spot where the sun had dis
appeared. Its appearance was
that of an extremely brilliant
star. with q long bush like tail,
spreading upwards in the wake
of the comet. This is probably
not Haley's Comet, because it
would be two months ahead of
schedule time.

Northern Pacific Asked to
Build
Petitions Circulated in Every
City Interested in TIE

doned. George E. Schnabel,
Secretary and General Manager
of the Minnesota Accident In
surance Go. of st. Paul, who is
largely interested in Pine Coun

Dear Sir
We. the undersigned citizens
of Washburn, Wisconsin, and
vicinity, who are interested in
the development and settlement
of the District round about Us

spectfully petition your Com
pany to build a line from Iron
River in a Sorthwesterlv direct
ion through Douglas County,
Wisconsin and Pine County,
Minnesota, connecting your
Duluth Short line at Hinckley,
Pine City or such point in Pine
County as shall prove to be most
advantageous with your line at
Iron River. Attached herewith
please find communication set
ting forth the resources of this
district, possibility of develop

will justify your building this
line. We hope you will find it
