One of the Best Ever Held
in the County
Exhibits are Unusually At
tractive. Washburn Shows
up Well in Exhibits.

The Bayfield, county fair
which has been in progress at
the fair grounds at Iron River
during the past three days is
one of the best that has ever
been held in the county, both
in the number of attendance
and the exhibits on display.
bayfield, county people gener-
ally are waking up to the fact
that the county fair is an i'm
portant factor in the develop
ment of the county and people
are becoming more interested
every year, The exhibit hall
this year was completely filled
with exhibits of different
kinds, including all kinds of
vegetables, grains, fruits, and
grasses, etc. The building
was entirely too small to
accommodate the display and if
the fair keeps on growing the
way it has the past two years
the building will have to be
doubled in size. The Wash
burn part of the display at the
exhibit hall is deserving of
special mention for it was got
ten up in such a manner as to
attract the attention of
everyone. The exhibit con-
sisted of grains, vegetables,
grasses, fruit, canned goods,
pastry and bakery goods,
fancy work and embroidery,
and color paintings. II. FL.

had been looted, he followed the tracks
thru the snow and soft earth. When

Custer brother, he notified the police
station. Chief Dick Richards had had
his eye on the place for several days
and he at once detailed Detectives
Curtis and Carrahers on the case, Sc

the men TO go thru the house.
In the living part Of the house

volvers in the bottom of an old trunk.

sewing machines to sugar waters.

Dewar, April 20.-Mothers in this
art OF the country have become

that a stranger. driving across the
country IN a closed carriage, has tried
to induce young girls to ride with him
and to go to his home which he re-
ports is twenty miles away. as COM
pany for his own child of similar years.
A few days ago the stranger drove
his rig close to the door of a school
house and asked the teacher If she
had pupil about Z or s years old
whom she could spare to accompany
him to his home. The appearance of
the man frightened the lady teacher
very much, but she did not display any
symptoms of her real feelings. She
promptly told the man that she had no
girls of that age in school. The
stranger was bold and obtrusive, how
ever, and tried to brush past her so
that he could look for himself to see
if the teacher was telling the truth. She
put up a bold front and ordered him
away He hesitated moment and
then left.
Later the teacher learned that

little one was going to school. She
was accompanied by her small brother.
The man stopped and asked the
girl TO get in his rig and ride with
him. The girl objected. She was
frightened by the appearance of the
big man, who was swarthy in complex
ion and very dark. Both children
were trembling with fear
Dismounting from his rig, the man
caught the girl and lifted her, strug-
Cling, kicking and screaming into
his closed vehicle. The little brother
could not prevent this bold act of
kidnapping. All he could do was to
alarm.
The stranger drove rapidly away.
He is said to have tried to soothe the
girls fears by promising her that SHE
would be taken to very pretty
home, where there was another girl
OF her age who was anxious to have a
playmate. But the child. sensing
some evil misfortune. continued to
cry and scream for help. Her voice
was heard by a farmer, who hasten
ed to the rig and rescued her. For
some reason the farmer did not de-

CHILDREN AND THEIR EDUCATION

Too many people think of edu- cation as knowledge of books only. Children need far more than can be learned from books, and what is taught should be. of character to make them useful. There is altogether too much of teaching to know, without teach ing to do things. There is too little attention given to inculca- ton of principles to make better citizenship. We are educating our children to know too many things which will be of little value in after life.
 We have no purpose to decrv colleges or universities, and higher education; there should be good education. which people will enable the young men and women to fill useful places in

Where parents are inca

alright. Where parents are inca pable. schools must protect so- ciety, by directing children into proper paths; and in every home there is need of the help of the school. Moral training is so inn portant that it were better to have no schools than schools in which there is no moral training.
 And there should be amuse- ments, and entertainments. di- rected by the men and women who love children, and whose interest will cause them to se- cure such amuSements and en- tertainments as will be helpful. 1t is the right of everyone to en- joy life; and this is especially the right of the children. If proper amusements and enter tainment are not provided. it is certain that they will be of another kind.
 The influence of the fireside, the church and of the schools, should be reinforced by such pleasures as tend to the making of better men and women. Character is developed at every step, and it is well to develop the best character. The amuse- ments and pleasures of the young should be the especial care of the good people of every community.
 A religion of "don'ts'' will not take the place of one of dos" Churches and schools will not supply the demand God has placed in the hearts of child ren for pleasures. He would have them to enjoy. There should bemany other things of interest and of benefit. In every community there should be library, and children should be taught the pleasure of read ing good books. The best anti dote for the poison of bad books is to supply good books. The literary tastes of young people
