Roosevelt in Africa

NO JOURNEY OF MODERN TIMES has at
tracted such great attention or excited such great IN
terest as Roosevelts journey through the Wilds OF
Africa in search of the Big Game of that Dark Con-
tinent. The rising generation have been brought to
a more interesting realization Of the Marvellous Won
ders of the Heart Of Africa.
This story of magnificent achievement and wonder
full discovery, thrills and captivates the reader. Not
only Roosevelt's journey is fully described, but also
experiences of Stanley, Livingstone and Baker, in ex-
ploring the unknown wilds Of this most wonderful
region.
ROOSEVELT, THE GREAT AMERICAN
HUNTER AND NATURALIST, goes to Africa
where the game is larger and more abundant and
there he shoots the largest and most teroclous OF all
beasts the Lion, Rhinocerus and Elephant, and gets
the finest specimens OF Monkeys and other animals.
ROOSEVELT WITNESSES the STRANGE
CUSTOMS of the strangest of all the Worlds Peo-
pie. Freaks of Medicine Men and Rainmakers. Pc
cuEar Marriage Customs. Horrible antics Of the
Wizards and Snake Charmers, Great Warriors that
make civilized people laugh, and Slave Drivers that
make Christian people cry.
The story of the African Explorations of these
Wonderful Travellers is a Brilliant Panorama of
Tropical Wonders that interests and educates the most
languid. Every page is full of thrilling incidents and
startling scenes, and the secrets of yesterday become
the knowledge of the world today.
A vast Treasury of all that is marvellous, interest
ing, wonderful and instructive in the Dark Continent
and with graphic descriptions of the mighty rivers,
wonderful cataracts, inland seas, vast lakes, great for
ests and diamond mines of untold wealth.

Choice of Two Fine Books
Roosevelt Among the People

Not since the time of Napoleon has there been a
man Of affairs on the worlds stage who has attracted
the attention of all nations and classes of people as
does Ex-President Theodore Roosevelt.
The people of America are anxious to know where
Roosevelt stands on the many problems of national
Importance confronting us today.
WHAT HAS HE SAID ON THE VARIOUS SUB
~JECTS-WHAT POSITION WILL HE
TAKE IN THE FUTURE.
ROOSEVELT AMONG THE PEOPLE is an
authentic account of Ex-President Roosevelts famous
speeches on the great questions of today: The Tariff,
The Trusts, Monroe Doctrine, The Worker and the
Wage-earners, The Army and Navy, The Philippines,
Currency, Irrigation, Conservation, Education, Char
acter, Good Roads, ETC., etc.
The value of this book really lies in the fact that
over his own signature Mr.. Roosevelt has declared it
to be authentic.
Another valuable feature of the book is the Sixty
Three Full Page Halftone Illustrations. These are
reproduced from photographs taken in many states
and shows the popular and versatile Ex-President sur
rounded by great throngs of people.

Having the advantage of studying
the proposition from its practical
and applied side and realizing that
the time is near at hand when Ameri
can colleges will be obliged to follow
the example of those in Germany and
prepare men for POSITIONS in city gov
eminent, the matter has been brought
before the board of trustees of Law
renee college and in all probability
the professor in economics and poll
tical science will at the opening of
the coming college year establish a
class in city government.
According to those who have in
vestigated the question, there is
ample material in this study to make
of it a two years course, which can
be carried with other college work.
By the opening of the next college
year in September, Appleton will have
been under the commission form of
government about six months, which
will afford students in this branch
Of study plenty of practical work to
Investigate.
While Appleton's new commission
has been elected less than ten days
letters are already pouring in from
dozens of cities asking for data con-
corning the campaign that brought
the ousting of the old council and the
adoption of the commission form. A
mong the cities interested and from
which letters have been received are
Green Bay, Fond du Lac, Menasha,
Manitowoc, Amigo, Wausau, Marinett
Sheboygan, Oshkosh, Grand Rapids
Racine, Merrill and many others The
fact that so many of the loading
Wisconsin cities are contemplating
adopting this form of municipal gov
eminent proves the contention that
American colleges should treat the
subject. extensively and prepare men
for work of that kind.

Here is a list of commissioner
erned cities. There are 108 of them
in twenty-four states Ohio is not a.
mong these states. There are three
cities in the list that have over 100,
900 population, viz, Oakland, Cal;
Memphis, Tenn, and Spokane, Wash.
Columbus ought to add one to the list
All of those 10S cities are glad they
made the change. They are reducing
their debts and taxes, improving
their streets and parks, doing busi-
ness in an honest, businessIike way,
and are plying their neighbors that
haven't spirit enough to free them
selves from the machine system of
municipal government and standing
for a system that means economy,
integrity and efficiency. If We were
going to leave Columbus and locate
elsewhere we would select one of
these commissioning cities.
