MOTH HERS' DAY IN SCHOOLS.

The observance of Mothers Day
gives the schools another good oppor-
tunity to stimulate the respect and
love of pupils for their parents. 1t
has sometimes been claimed that the
school is too much divorced from the
home, although the formation of
Mothers clubs and parents meetings
has done much toward establishing
between the two more intelligent and
sympathetic relations. Teachers may
we'll use every opportunity to enlarge
the child's love for his home and for
his father and mother. This is very
good for the child and also serves to
keep the school in closer touch with
the home. Mothers Day can be so
well utilized by schools for the further
ance of the object for which it stands
that they can we'll afford to make use
of it, and thus discharge duty that is
too often neglected. BY observing the
day with suitable exercises, the minds
of the children are impressed with the
significance OF the love and devotion of
parents in a way that is not possible
through any formal instruction.

COUNTY HISTORY WILL
SOON Be PUBL lSHED

PRELIMINARY WORK HAS BEEN
STARTED AND CREW OF REPORT
ERS WILL START GETTING DATA
IN THE NEAR FUTURE. DIR. LOU
IS FALGE TO BE EDITOR-IN-
CHIEF. TEN OTHER PROMINENT
CITIZENS ASSISTING AS ASSOCI-
ATE EDITORS AND ADVISORY
BOARD.
At last long felt want is about to
be filed. 1t is lamentable fact that
Manitowoc County, with its immense
fund of historical facts, has never re-
ceived the attention at the hands of
the historian it by right deserves.
But few of the early settlers are yet
living and the time is so rapidly pass
ing that ere long they, too, will "pass
within that tent whose curtain never
outward swings"
Arrangements have been made for
the writing and publishing of a com
plete history of Manitowoc county, en-
bodying all subjects and events of i'm
portance from the earliest time down
to the present. DR.. Louis Falge has
been selected as the Editor-in-chief,
and, as associate editors and an advis-
ory board, the following named gentle
men are assisting him: Judge Emil
Baensch, r. G. Plumb, Judge ]. S. An
derson, Rev. w. j. Peil, Thos. Torri-
son, and Judge John Chloupek of Man
itowoc; Fl. 2. Hamilton, G. c. Kirst
and Arthur Lohmann, of Two Rivers;
and A. w. Dassler of Kiel. Other
members of this board will be added
as occasion demands. The history
will be made as complete and accurate
as ability, research and wisely spent
money can make it. The Goodspeed
Publishing Co. of Chicago will be the
publishers. Almost Immediately the
work will be started and it is to be
hoped that the hearty and universal
cooperation of our people will be ex-
tended to the writer's and reporters en-
gagged in this most worthy undertak-
ing.

FOOD VALUE OF CHEESE.

The smallest knowledge of the Old
World makes the dullest tourist won
der why cheese is not more generally
consumed in America as a substantial
article of diet, like meat and eggs and
fish. Americans eat it as luxury or
as a condiment to stimulate or promote
digestion; hut they rarely regard it
like bread and meat as the staff of life.
And yet such it is. The United States
Government has thoroughly investigat-
ed the subject in all it's phases, with
the result that cheese is placed in the
foremost rank as life-scstaining food.
II is not a copdiment to 60 with food
it is food itself. Hear this: "a pound
of cheese is equal in food value to two
pounds of fresh beef or two pounds of
eggs. A pound of cheese is equal to
three pounds of fresh fish," So the
official reports declare. The expert
ments failed to show that cheese was
specially condiment or digestion pro-
moter but they proved that "skim''
cheese is almost as nutritive as the
best "cream" article and green cheese
quite as digestibe as the old. The
Swiss are very lusty and healthy. 1t
may be said of them, as CT the moon,
that they are made Of cheese" And,
sad to relate, Americans know next to
nothing about preparing cheese
dishes.
