READ THE ADS.

The readers of the Wood County
Reporter will find that they can
save a great deal of money during
the year by patronizing the mer-
chants whose advertisements appear
in the paper from time to time The
merchant who advertises is always
sure to sell you better goods for
less money than the non advertis-
ing merchant for the simple reason
that because he advertises, he does
a bigger business and can sell at a
lower profit. whereas, the non-ad-
Vertiser has to make a bigger profit
on each individual sale
Read the ads in this issue and
save money
The Johnson & Hill Cos grocery
advertisement will show you many
things that will put money in your
pocket. The Grand Rapids 5 and 10
Cent Store is advertising an entire
closing out of its bargain basement
stock at actual cost. The Leader,
a new store, offers the men and boys
some unusual opportunities to buy
at greatly reduced prices. The Nash
Hardware Co tell you about keep
ing coy and comfortable this win
ter. All the ads have something of
interest for Won

HOW TO CARE FOR
HEALTH IN SCHOOLS

| Ventilation of most school houses
is VIGOROUSLY bad. To meet this,
school boards have frequently in
stalled costly systems of mechanical
ventilation. Unfortunately, these
systems have seldom accomplished
what was hoped for Indeed, they
often make conditions worse, be
cause the janitor and teachers have
machine substituted for brains A
recent study by ventilating engi-
neers has shown that quite as good
or bad results can be obtained by
one system as another, Nearly all
schools are too warm. Every teacher
should be required to keep the air
in her schoolroom both fresh and
cool. So-called automatic ventilat-
ing and heating systems are not au-
tomato. They need to be carefully
supervised. Observations should be
made primarily, however, in the
schoolrooms and not in the base
ment.
Many half-bIind child has been
judged to be stupid because he
fails to see what others see. The
child with defective hearing may be
considered dull because he doesn't
readily grasp what the teacher or
others say to him. Obstruction in
the nasal tract actually makes the
child mentally backward A physi-
clan recently said that it was not I'M
til his eyesight was corrected by
glasses when he was a young man,
that he realized how much normal
people were able to see.
Spargo relates an incident of
child who was a vicious child be
cause she felt that she was being
nagged by the teacher and ridicul-
ed by the children for her answers.
She was absolutely certain that her
answers were correct Finally she
was expelled from school as an in
corrigible child Spargo studied her
case thoroughly. The child's earn
est and confident misleading of fig
ures. on a blackboard led to her be-
ing sent to ali Oculist. Eyeglasses
corrected her vision, and she be-
came more than an ordinarily intelli-
gent and lovable child This instance
is being repeated in part, at least,
in every school district

BEN, THE BOOSTER,
with
The Virginia enterprise. [volume] (Virginia, St. Louis County, Minn.) 1893-19??, 1913-04-25
SINKING merrill SHAFT.

Good progress is being made with
the sinking of the shaft of the new
Merrill mine near here. The off,
cials, some of whom looked over
the property during the week, are
highly pleased with the work that
has been done and expect to reach
the ore in twelve days more if the
same rate of progress can be kept
up.
The engineers report that the
prospects look fine and they ex-
pect to be on the shipping list with
in few months, as the ore body
is for the most part within less
than fifty feet Of the surface.
William Merrill, the big man in
the concern, was in Virginia We'd
nesday and left at noon for the
mead of the lakes. Mr.. Merrill
said before he left that he had had
no trouble with the labor situation
so far and said that although they
were paying slightly higher wages
than had been asked around the
mines for several years, yet he
did not an icipate any trouble in
getting all the good men he need
ed. You can always get good
men, if you pay the price, said Mr.
Merrill, land good men can always
get jobs too

HORSE CASE DISMISSED.

The action of Chas. J. Johnson
and Oscar Sundberg against the
Virginia Rainy Lake company tC
recover $3.50, the price Of a horse
purchased from the company by
the plaintiffs, was dismissed on
motion of the plaintiffs in the dis
trict court.
One feature of the action that
caused some interest locally was
that the plaintiffs alleged in their
complaint that the big lumber com,
pany fraudulently represented the
said horse to be sound, healthy and
we'll, except that said horse was
blind in one eye and somewhat stiff
in the hind quarters.
The horse is alleged to have
died within few days Of the sale
being made and Johnson & Sund-
berg stated in their suit that the
animal had died of swamp fever
claimed. that they were defrauded
to the extent of the deal. The
purchase was originally in Deem
Der, 1914, and has been hanging
through the courts practically ever
since that time.

EACH GOT SIXTY DAYS.

Peter Neimi and Klemus Nepala
Of Costin were each sentenced 10
serve two months in the county
Jail by Judge Martin Hughes for
having been convicted of having
sold liquor to minors on Monday.
The two men were charged with
having supplied three Virginia
boys with liquor on one Sunday
during the early part of the year
and it was charged that the boys
were drunk as result of the
booze sold them by the defendants.
The learned judge lectured the
two men strongly concerning the
evils likely to accrue from selling
liquor to minors.

TENNIS TO BE POPULAR
IN VIRGINIA THIS YEAR

Again this year tennis is to be a
popular game in Virginia. A few
practice games have been played
at the courts at the Roosevelt
school grounds, which have been
provided by the school board but
are open for all who desire to play
the game. Many players who have
played on college teams and on
teams in other cities are now resi-
dents Of Virginia and will take part
Last year, late in the season, the
tennis organization was formed but
only one or two local events were
played. This year an early start
will be made and several tourna-
ments will be held with players
from Duluth, the Twin Cities anC
elsewhere.
