For Equal Suffrage During Fair.

The Wisconsin Woman's Suffrage
association has been assigned q choice
location at the fair grounds by Super
intendent Wiley. A large tent, deco
rated with United States flags and
red, white and blue bunting and the
interior decorated with yellow chrys-
anthemums, will be pitched between
the education and publicity buildings.
The plans for the week are as yet
incomplete. The association hopes to
invite different organiza tons for the
various days Of the week, granting
these organizations the privilege Of
distributing their literature, telling
about their work and arranging a pro-
gram of their own, reserving the right,
however, to give one address on wom-
ans suffrage by some eminent speak
er during each session.
There will be no special program on
woman's day.
The suggestion of woman's day
came to the state fair board through
the Wisconsin Woman's Suffrage asso-
citation, and this association now feels
in duty bound to turn out in a body
and exert every effort to help make
this day success and give such as.
sistance to the chairman of the day
as it may be called upon to give.

officers are trained for the service at the revenue
cutter cadet school, located at New London, Conn
Young men enter at any age between eighteen and
twenty-four and in addition to exact1ons In DOCK
learning must undergo military and nautical
training that in respects is even more ardu-
Gus than that given at Uncle Sans big academies
at Annapolis and West Point. OF course the
classes at the cadet school comparatively small
sometimes there not more than two dozen
embryo officers enrolled at the institution but this
is to be expected, for the revenue cutter service
does not need the great numbers Of officers re-
CURED for rapidly growing navy. Indeed there
are less than three hundred commissioned officers
on the cutter roster, where as the warrant
officers and enlisted men will probably not total
more than fifteen hundred, although Uncle Sam is
constantly adding to his feet Of revenue cutters,
and this expansion is reflected in the active list.
The navigating responsibilities Of the officers Of
the nations sea police boats probably exceed those
of any other men In the naval or maritime service
Unlike many of the who go down to the sea
in ships they do not conf1ne themselves to given
ocean path. On the contrary, the young revenue
cutter officer may be called upon at short notice
to navigate his ship in any waters from south
ern Florida to northern Alaska and he must enter
many bays and arms of the sea where no naval
or merchant vessel would ever be required to go.
For these versatile demands the revenue cutter

the cadets spend several months a cruising

connected with the navigation of the vessel

they continue that small arms and ordnance prac
tice which Is feature Of their schooling on shore
The motto Of the United States revenue cutter
ice is "Semper Paratus," which may be translated
always Ready" and certainly the Yankee police
force of the high schools has eloquently proven In
recent years that the words of this slogan convey
no idle boast.
