DIED

Dr. James Burke, who practiced
medicine in this city for about five
years, leaving for country practice in
the town of Maple Grove two years ago
died at Wayside, Brown County, last
Thursday.
Dr. Burke was born in Morrison,
Brown County in 1896. He was one OF
Il large family raised on the farm near
the Manitowoc county line, all the
members of which had more than
neighborhood celebrity for scholarship
and probity. Like most ambitious
farmer boys of a generation ago the
field Of teaching appealed to him and
he followed this vocation for several
years after being graduated from The
Oshkosh Normal school. Later he Sc
cured his medical education at Rush
Medical college and practiced up to
the time of his death.
DR.. Burke had mind with latent
possibilities for achieving distinction
in his profession. He was great
reader and Investigator, pursuing his
researches with an intellectual honesty
that made no compromise with accept
ed theories if they ran counter to his
logic. This trait was developed to an
extent that curtailed the success in
practical affairs that his capabilities
merited
He was buried from st. Patrick S
church at Maple Grove last Saturday.
DR.. Burke is survived by his wife,
three brothers, DR.. Thos. Burke OF
Wayside, State Senator Timothy Burke
of Green Bay, and Mr.. John Burke of
Wayside, and four sisters, Miss jose
phine of Green Bay, Sister Alban,
Mrs. Hewitt of Peublo, Colo, and Mrs.
John Burns of this city.

The cost of a season ticket for the

BOYS BODY IS FOUND.

The body of Floyd Smith, the. boy
who disappeared Oct. 6, was found
floating in the river near the shipyard
this morning. He was nine years old
and son of Mrs. Nettie Smith who
came here from Ashland five months
ago. No inquest was held, the author
tiles deciding that it was clearly case
of accidental drowning. Since the boys
disappearance the river has been drag
ged in several places and the police
has been persistent in its
effort to get trace of him, but it was
all in vain. The finding of the body in
the river this morning solves the mys-
terry. The remains will be taken to
Ashland for burial.

things Mr.. Ferris said in opening his
address, that out of the ninety million
of people in this country, ten million
Of them are on the Threshold OF pow
erty, because we put them there. The
reason is that human selishness, that
is "wanting something for nothing
is the cause Of unrest.
In speaking Of the boys and girls Of
today, he said, that fathers and mothers
send their children TO high schools and
colleges so that they may avoid the
path of thorns through which their
parents travelled There are two kinds
of boys, continued Mr.. Ferris. The
first those who appear at school in
shabby, uukempt attire, and then in
three months cast aside all this, forget
their old friends, home and parents;
and apologies to his school friends for
the peculiar manners of his father or
mother, and refuses them to visit
school for the same reason. This boy
is the boy of whom to be afraid, this
is the boy who should never be sent to
school. The second lad Is the one who
tells his fellows of his sanity mother,

SUNDAY CLOSING THREATENED.

The possible Inauguration Of blue
law Sundays in Manitowoc set the city
by the ears the past week. On Sun
day evening, OctoberS, an Uncle Toms
Cabin company, in defiance of orders
from the mayor, footed their horns in
front of the opera house, for half an
hour or so. This did not assist in the
proper conduct of religious services in
the three churches on the corner above.
The pastors were naturally provoked,
and being unable TO reach the transient
Legree, Little Eva and Marks, who, as
is their wont, had moved on, proceedsl
to attempt any future Sunday perform
ances in the two picture show houses
on north eighth street
A delegation of five clergymen in
GLIDING the Presbyterian, Episcopal,
ST. Paul's Norwegian Lutheran, ST.
Pau!'s Methodist and German Metho-
dist pastors, addressed communica-
ton to the mayor calling on him to
close the theatres on Sundays and de-
manding that the city license fee ordin-
ance be enforced against the shows.
Collecting the fee seemed to appeal to
the mayor as fair proposition and he
secured an installment from each upon
the annual tax of $50. The Sunday
closing feature he passed along to the
chief of police. Chief Grotfman asked
for explicit directions. The mayor
backed away and said in substance,
DO your duty as it is given you to see
it," Both realized that about 80 per
cent of the people approve of the
shows.
Nothing else was discussed on the
streets. Closing theatres seemed to
portend further closing movements.
Letters from citizens began to APP
pear in the papers. The clergymen
explained in print. Rev. John Oil
phant explained his position in SER
mon. Sunday last the theatres were
wide open and doing IA rushing busi.
ness. The expectancy of some action
at the council meeting Monday brought
crowd there. A new statement from
the clergymen that the police had not
done their duty Sunday was referred
by the mayor to the fire and police
commission. The movement has not
gotten anywhere in particular yet but
the pastor of the Presbyterian church
is reported as saying that the movers
will see it through to the end.

ANNUAL MEETING.

The annual session of the Manitowoc
County Teachers Association was held
in this city on Friday and Saturday of
last week.
At the Friday morning session there
were addresses by FL. l.. Terry, state
inspector of high schools, and J. B..
Borden, the former entitled 'Some
Features of Good High School," Mr..
Terry said that under the first head he
included neatness in buildings and
grounds, good fixtures and seats and
fitting arrangement of interior. The
teacher must he competent and there
must be sociability among the students
cooperative spirit and loyalty to
school, instructor and fellow students.
Mr.. Borden explained recent legis
lation affecting the schools. In ad-
dition to these speakers again the
teachers also enjoyed a talk in the
afternoon by Miss Abby Marlotte of
Madison.
A public lecture, the feature of the
meeting, was held at the Opera House
Friday evening. The speaker was w.
N. Ferris of the Ferris Institute of Big
Rapids, Mich. The lecture was an
instructive and inspiring effort emf
nently appropriate for the occasion.
The Keynote was an appeal for the
casting out of seltishness. He said in
part: One of the curses of the age, is
the recognition by the public of tive
standards OF virtue one for man and an
other for woman and he declared that
there should be one standard applying
to both sexes. The mother should de-
mand the same standard of virtue of
the young man who calls upon her
daughter as she demands of the girl
who associates with her son. Puri-
tication of the home is one of the great
needs of America.
True Christianity is in the brother
hood of man and sisterhood of woman,
said the speaker, who scored sham
Christianity in the churches and said
that much of it was builded upon this
evil--seltiShness. Drive selhshness
from the church and the school and
you will have taken the first great
step to greater and better nation and
people.
Saturday morning the business ses-
sion OF the association was held. The
new officers elected were:
President-Ray Nc Carthy, Keliners-
vile.
Vice presdent-C. j. Stangel, Mani
Secretary--Olga Wigen, Reedsville.
Treasurer-Otto Drews, Town New
ton.
Over $50 teachers were in attendance
and the meeting was one of the most
successful ever held by the association.
The standard of the speakers this year
has set high mark for future meet
ings to strive to reach.
