be put to work, and that the money
derived from their labor shall be
used for the support of their wives

There will be difficulties In the
way of making this project a success
but they probably will not be SO great
as the existing difficulties in the
way of making some ''free" men do
their duty by their families. Moral
suasion has no effect on these. Com
pulsion is needed while we adhere
to the doctrine that husband and
father should be the breadwinner
for his family.
The problem of providing for the
deserted family is a formidable one
in many communities. To obtain just
treatment of wives and children from
lazy or viciously inclined men is a
still larger problem. There will be
wide interest an the outcome of the
projected Colorado plan Farm colo
nies would however, be better than

bert {. Saecker, Joined in
Holy WedIock.

One of the prettiest weddings of
the season was solemnized Wednesday
May Is, when Miss Edith May Lynn
and Mr.. Herbert E. Saecker were
married at the home of the brides
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. M. H. Lynn,
near Nekoosa, Wis.
AT 4:30 p. m. an orchestra compos-
ed of Messrs. Merrill, BandeIin,
White, Beck, and Johnson, assem-
bed in the music room, played the
Lohengrin wedding march, and the
bride beautifully gowned in white
silk entered the room attended by
her father. simultaneously the groom
attended by his brother, Mr.. Ed.
Saecker, of Menasha, entered by an
other door, and the parties met be-
meath wedding bell where the vows
were taken, the ring service being
used Rev. NJ B. Milne of the Grand
Rapids Baptist church read the ser
vice while the orchestra continued
the well known strains, played pi-
anissimo.
After the ceremony Mr.. and Mrs.
Saecker received the congratulations
and good wishes of the numerous
guests, several of whom came from
a distance for the occasion.
After a concert of several selections
by the orchestra the brides sister,
Mrs. Charlotte-Lynn Campbell and
Mrs. A. White, gave vocal and pi-
ano solos in their usual captivating
way, and won the enthusiastic ap-
plause of the company.
At 6 o'clock a three course dinner
ideal in cuisine and service, was
enjoyed.
The occasion throughout was one
of supreme pleasure to those privil-
eyed to attend The beautiful coun-
try home, the tasteful decorations,
the music, the personnel of the com
pany combined to make one forget
the inclemency of the weather.
The wedding gifts were numerous
and beautiful, and accentuated the
wedding atmosphere that pervaded
the house.
Of the central personalities little
need be said. The bride has been
known and loved for years for her
winsomeness and earnestness, quail
| tiles that have been invaluable to
her in her profession in music. Mr..
Saecker has been well known in
circles for a number of years and
enjoys deserved popularity.
After brief wedding trip, they
will make their home in this city.

FARM Or
DEATH, ONLY
ALTERNATIVE
With Money to Pay Way, Bar
abo0 Consumptive Unable to
Get in Sanitarium.

BARABOO, Wis, May 21-Weak
and emaciated from the ravages of
consumption, John Carol of this city
recently an equestrian in the Sells
F1ottoe Shows, is lying in the Clark
Hotel helpless. He will probably
have to be taken to the County Poor
Farm because there is no tubercu-
losis sanitarium which is not already
oyercrowded.
He was brought home from Califor
MIA by A. H. Brown, a representa-
tive of the circus, thinking that he
could be left in the care of his
mother-in-law, Mrs. Page of Baraboo,
but it was found that she did not have
the facilities for caring for tuber-
culOsis patient.
An attempt was at once made to
get him into sanitarium, but with
the exception of one private insti,
tuition charging beyond his means,
every one in the state is not only
filled but has a long waiting list. DR..
H. E. Dearholt, Executive Secretary
of tho Wisconsin Tuberculosis
Assoc alton, DR.. Coon, Superintend-
ent of the state sanitarium at Wales,
DR.. M. P. Ravenel of Madison and
several other people were called O.
yer long distance telephone with the
hope that some place might be sug-
gested, but with no avail.
Though Carol is without funds his
company stands ready to pay his
way if a reasonably priced institu-
ton were available, and Mr.. Brown
is still trying 20 make some arrange
ments.
''It seems that man has to be a
pauper or a millionaire in this state
to get care" said Mr.. Brown, criti-
cizing the negligence of the state
in furnishing institutions for con-
sumptives. eff a man can pay thir-
ty-fiVe dollars a week he can go to
a private sanitariuma nd if he is
destitute he can go to the poor farm,
though perhaps to infect the other in
mates, but there is no place where
a man can go and receive proper care
for a reasonable amount" +"
This is a just criticism but steps
have been taken to remedy conditions
Seven counties have already made
appropriations for county sanitariums
as a result of the law passed last
spring giving them state aid, and
several others have the matter under
consideration.

We refrained from commenting up
on Mr.. Daly's action because he is

We are glad the Sentinel has seen
fit to comment ON his action and
publish a cut of the building. Every
body in Grand Rapids will resent
this and there was no good reason
that can be offered for SO doing.
Perhaps Mr.. Daily thought it was
cute and good advertising medium
for him. We consider it an insult

etc, Mr.. Chapman will make a spe-
