some excellent German programs from
these ambitious students.
Our boys are entering into football
with zeal greater than ever before
We expect to be the winning team this
season. We have some fine athletic
fellows and we trust we are going to
have occasion to be proud of their
achievements.
We are glad of the interest which
outside people take in the school as is
shown by the fact that Miss Sada
Jacobs of this city and Miss Taylor of
Linden spent Monday forenoon as visit
ors in the high school.
Parents will perhaps be glad to know
that the school has introduced a new
system of taking class standings.
Hereaft'y pupils will be graded as fol-
lows: Seyenty-fve TO eighty-five is
fair, eighty-five to ninety-five is good,
and ninety-five to one hundred is ex-
cellent. The minus and plus signs will
be used to designate above or below
the number between extremes. This
system will eliminate a great deal OF
competitor on the part of the pupils.

KODAKS

Are you thinking of buying a
Camera. If so it will pay you to
investigate the Kodak.
Why? Because the Kodak rep
reSents the latest and best improve
ments known to amateur photo
graphy, which took years of time
and study to work out.
Eastman Kodaks are not copied
or patterned after other cameras,
but represent the original and best
ideas in the camera field today.
Eastman KnGaks are made so
simple that the smallest child can
operate them and if directions are
followed failures are an impossi-
bility.
Why not get the best. the Ko-
dak, not something just as good;
the cost is no more.

NUMBER 80
The Municipal Building.

Mineral Point, Wis, Sept. II, 1918.
Mr. B. j. Bennett.
Dear Sir:-I In your last issue of The
Tribune The erroneous impression was
given to your readers, that the failure
of the contractor to commence work on
the new city hall, would cost the city
extra interest upon the state loan.
The rate Of interest and the time of
payment Of interest and principal were
fixed when the money was advanced by
state, and the contractors delay in
beginning work doesNnot add nor take
away one penny from the amount that
the city must pay for interest. The
contract calls for the full completion of
the building by Sept. /, 1914, and if it
be not completed by that time the con-
tractor forfeits $40 per day for each
day that il remains uncompleted.
Believing that you would not willing
ly create any false impression as to
this hope that you win give this com
mucation the same publicity that you
have given the article above referred
to. Respectfully Yours,
j, 7. PARMLEY, Mayor.
Mayor Parmley is right in his belief
that The Tribune would not willingly
create any false impression The point
in mind was the immediate need of the
and il is opined that that fact
alone influenced all citizens who voted
for the loan. Tr.e. the terms Of the
loan are such that it will make no diff
ference when the building is completed.
There seemingly is, however, as great
a need for the building now or six
months from now as there will be a
year from now. In short, The people
IRE anxious for the start and COM
oletion and any delay on the part of
.he contractor is disrehshed and ir-
.itating TO them. EDITOR.

"In one respect, however, I've found
it difflcult-yes, impossib le-to follow
the letter of the statute; that is in
hiring out prisoners on written con-
tract. Employers refuse to bind them
selves to keep prisoner, who may or
may not prove satisfactory, the full
term of sentence. Six Of my prisoners
now are working out, but;in each case
on verbal agreement. Seems to me the
law should permit the sheriff to use
his judgment in shifting the prisoner
elsewhere when either employer or
prisoner is dissatisfied.

OSTEOPATHY
osteopathy Removes the Cause.


Osteopathy seeks to remove the
cause of diseases. 1t finds that the
chief cause is maladjustment of struc-
ture. The body framework of the
body, and especially the ribs and
vertebrae, :are found in abnormal posi-
tions. These press upon nerves which
carry nerve fbers regulating the blood
supply to the various parts of the
body. In-this way disease developes.
By making the proper adjustments
these nerves are released and are thus
permitted to assume again their nor
NAL functions. Then the blood
supply again becomes normal and, as
no tissue can be normal without a
normal blood supply, the disease dis
appears when the blood is supplied to
the tissues in a normal amount. Adj
justment is the key word of Oste-
opathy.
BY manipulating the spine in the
region of the kidneys a better blood
supply is obtained for that part of the
cord. This extra blood nourishes the
nerve centerslin the cord and quick
ems their impulses. These impulses
stimulate the kidneys to more action
and more work is done by them
Hence the blood is cleapsed of the
waste. material. What is true of the
kidneys is true also of any other
organ of the body. The treatment
stimulates them to greater but normal
activity.

Sick Youth In Washington.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. A. Slice, thfr-
teen years old, owes his life to letter
and baseball from his idol, Walter
Johnson, pitcher of the Washington
baseball team
Ever since Warren has been old
enough to go to baseball games he has
looked with awe on Walter johnson.
Several weeks ago he became ill with
appendicitis. and an operation was
necessary. Physicians said they did
not think he would recover The boy
was delirious part of the time and
talked incoherently about Walter John
son. When the team came back from
Its western trip member of the Slice
FAMILY told Mr.. Johnson of the situa-
ton.
Physicians said they could not per-
NIT the pitcher to see the boy for fear
the excitement would be fatal. So
the pitcher sent letter and baseball
used in one of his victorious games in
the west. Here is the letter:
My Dear Warren-I take pleasure in
sending you herewith one of the baseba,ls
used on our western trip and hope that
you will soon have the opportunity OF
using it with your friends
There was change for the better
at once. and Warren will be able to
leave the hospital soon. When he does
he intends to go to Mr.. Johnson's hotel
to thank him.
