Nudge Philpot WilE Hear Petition Monday and High School at
 Redfield May Result

A petition will be considered by Judge c. M. Philpot Monday from residents of the eighth, thirty fifth and thirty-seventh school districts, requesting the consolidation of the three districts. The towns of Red field and Kearney are in the pro- posed new district, and if the request is granted by the county judge, it is said that an elegant brick school building will be erected at Redfield and partial high school course taught at that place.
 Superintendent A. w. Lowe, who visited the schools at iWabbasekA and Humphrey the latter part of the week, complimented the work being done in the schools, stating that the school at Humphrey, under the lead ership of J. M. Cathy, has students taking first and second year high school work, and the school at Wab- baseka, under the direction of Miss Annie May Gatewood, teaches first, second and third year work.
 Both schools are in fine condi- tion,' said Superintendent Lowe, land the high school feature is of the greatest benefit to the advanced pupils in those communities.

Death of Mrs. J. P. Cox.

Owing TO some slight inaccuracies
appearing in a hurriedly prepared
sketch of the life of Mrs James Pit
man Cox, as published in The Herald
last week. we PRINT herewith brief
obituary notice with the corrections
made
Mrs James Pitman Cox Margaret
Hanley MCKENZIE was born June 1st,
1888, in Ellenboro, on the old farm
owned by her father. She was post
mistress at EllenPoro for a number of
years, until the time Of her marriage
which took place in 1874, Their she
moved to the farm four miles south of
Lancaster where she remained until
about ten years ago, when she with
her husband came to Lancaster to re-
side. Her husband died here, four
years ago.
Mrs. Cox was a daughter of Col.
James Mckenzie, who with Major
Rountree came TO Wisconsin in 1897
and settled ia what is now Platteville.
She was one of family of seven
children, viz:-Mrs. Nancy elise,

Visits 800 Schools.

J. G. Brockert, county superin-
tendent of the schools of Grant county,
was in Muscoda Friday on his way to
the joint institute at Avoca Saturday,
where he and County Superintendent
Van Malta, of Iowa county conducted
this institute, assisted by Professors
Thompson of Richand Center and
Kircher of Dodgeville.
Mr.. Brockert has the distinction of
having more schools under his super
vision than any other one superin-
tendent in the state. There are 300
schuols in Grant county. 353 teachers,
and 221 districts. OF those 300 schools
POI are rural schools. He has visited
all but 40 of these schools since they
opened last fall and will make the
rest easily before spring vacation,
with second visit probably, to some.
To reach most of them he must drive
over all kinds of roads face winter
weather most Of the time and take his
chances on meals and lodging.
Superintendent Brockert is certainly
busy man and carries his task

Continuity in Advertising.

The merchant who places advertis-
ing in only few newspaper issues is
sometimes disappointed that large re-
suits do not Immediately follow.
Modern life is crowded with in
terests. people live in hurried way,
and public attention is tickle. Let
the advertiser consult the new science
of salesmanship and business psy-
chology. He will be told that nothing
affects the mind like repetition. Con
slant dropping wears away thu stone
that is not affected by the single hard
shower.
If man of striking appearance
passes by your place only at long in
tervals, you would scarcely recollect
his features from time to time. If
a person of ordinary appearance passes
regularly for a short time, his face
becomes firmly fixed in your mind.
The merchant who will advertise
regularly even if only in small space
Will be surprised to see how the public
will look for him in his regular posi-
tion and be disappointed if he fails to
appear.
The familiar name in the business
news is greeted with as much pleasure
as the familiar face that you meet
on the street. Once interest is Great
ed by man s methods of advertising,
readers turn to it as to a serial story.

Better Wisconsin Homes.

The campaign Of the Wisconsin
Advancement association for better
homes throughout rural Wisconsin
deserves encouragement. 1t would
be something worth while to be able
to say that Wisconsin has the finest
farm homes of any state in the union.
1t is fact generally recognized
that farmers are apt to look after the
comfort of their livestock before they
do that of their families. Good barns
are ssen springing up long before good
houses are built. The latest type of
machinery is none too good to use in
planting or harvesting the crops, but
the wife and mother goes on using
the same old inconvenient, back break
ing devices her grand mother knew.
But this is changing even more
than gradually. Yet the change
might come faster with profit. When
it is considered that for the price of
an automobile nearly all the modern
conveniences could be installed in a
country home and when it is further
considered that many farmers are
buying the automobile first. the
reasonableness of an appeal to do
something in the home becomes ap-
parent. -Beloit News.

CALENDARS FOR 1914.

During the past few weeks more
calendars have been distributed By
Lancaster business houses than in any
previous year. Calendars have be-
come necessity in very household
and the complimentary distribution
of them is practice that seems to
be we'll appreciated by the public.
It is probable that nine tenths of
the calendars that have been given
away here this year were furnished
by outside houses and right now sales
men representing manufacturers and
printers from other cities and other
states are focking into this and ad-
joining territory soliciting orders for
1914.
It is not necessary for those using
calendars to buy them away from
home. The Herald has now on dis
play a large and beautiful line
of samples in both foreign and
domestic manufacture consisting of
about 1000 styles, obtained from
two of the largest manufacturing
and importing institutions in the
country, and including every style
calculated to meet the wants of
customers large or small.
We ara prepared to print and
furnish these as desired, exactly as
good as they can be obtained from
outside jobbers, and as cheap.
We shall be glad to have the home
orders. and if there is any virtue in
the advice so frequently given out
not always followed, Favor the
home dealer with your patronage, >"
we ask that local people at least in
spect our large line of samples before
buying. We have no doubt we can
please you for our variety is very
large and very fine.
1t includes a large collection of
imported banners in various sizes and
magnificent design; imported cut outs,
shapes, novelty calendars, jeweled
goods, wall pockets of novel and
beautiful styles, all of foreign manu-
facture, mbossed and frame work,
Autographs, three-color and half-tone
subjects mat mounts, etc., and large
assortment of De Luxe subjects, In
dainty designs and hand colored. 1t

New York, Jan. 27-Maj Daniel e.

mander of the Civil war, diplomat and
Well-known citizen of New York, will
be thrust into Jail today or tomorrow
as result of a shortage in his ac-
counts as chairman of the New York
monuments commission, unless the
unexpected happens.
The plight of the eighty-seven-year.
old, one-legged veteran aroused much
sympathy, which has taken form in
the starting Of a subscription to fur

eran fighter out of cell. The fund
is headed by Sheriff Hamburger, who
in the performance of his duties is
compelled to place under arrest man
who was once sheriff OF New York
county.
Ball VIII Be Large.
The amount of the bond required
will have to be fixed by the court
and as the shortage is $23,4T8, the
figure will probably be of considerable
proportions. The sheriff is hopeful
that some New Yorker will step for
ward and give the necessary bond.
