BARABOO RIVER
ONCE IN GORGE

The Baraboo river where the city is
located once flowed through a deep
gorge, according to Eben H. Toele,
who addressed the Sank County His
torical society at it's meeting last
week. Mr.. Toole has been in
vestigating the subject for mum Der of
years and has arrived at that conclu-
sion. A longer extractfro the paper
will be given in subsequent issue.
Mrs. Frank Avery read the "Trisl of
Little Joe" IS written by Mrs. NJ. L..
Atkinson. 1t will be printed later.
"Coins of the Bible" was given by
w. G. Curry and he exhibited many
rare specimens found in holy writ.
He said the ancient Egyptians used
rings of metal for their daily transac-
tons and this was very early in the
history of the world. The Greeks con-
ceived the idea of stamping the images
CT their gods on small pieces of silver
and gold of certain weights. They
were crude, but answered the purpose
and date back to about 800 B. &. The
idea soon spread over the civilized
world and the new nickle just issued
in this country is patterned after the
Greeks.
The first place in the Bib'e where
money is mentioned is in Genesis when
Abimelech gave Abraham the thou
and pieces of silver; joseph was sold
for 20 pieces and the Cave of Mach
pelah was bought by Abraham for 400

CARY MAKES REPLY.

Some time ago statement was sent
out and published in many papers
that Wisconsin public schools ranked
26th. The investigate was made by
the Russell Sage Foundation and sent
out in this state by the Wisconsin
Board of Public Affairs. MIR. Cary
says it is political bunk and yet adds:
ITO say that Wisconsin schools, even
the best of them, are far below what
we earnestly desire they should be is
to utter merely truism." He points
out that Minnesota has permanent
school fund of twenty-one million
dollars as against four millions In this
state. Both states have the same
ratio of children and with more
money Minnesota leads Wisconsin.
The superintendent adds that to raise
Wisconsin to a higher standard more
expense must follow.

CASE OF THE UNWRITTEN LAW

Over in Minnesota q scoundrel took
chances of unlawful domestic rela.
tions in the home of Professor Olson
and lost. The tragedy was enacted in
Minneapolis and the man got what
was coming to him, as the street
would say. The jury decided it was
a case of unwritten law and Olson is
freed from all blame. The professor
now asks the world to forget the act
and not trail it along through the
years to the detriment of his forgiven
wife and family. To the fiend who
brought eternal scandal into the Gull
tured home the best thing to do is to
forget and may the shadows be light
over the others in the case, although
the incident is likely to follow them to
the grave.

Miss Fold ellis
q Brief
Story.

Miss FoIa LaEollette, apropos of
the latef clothing strike in which she
| took so active an interest, said at a tea
in New York:
"Such kind conduct as you mention
in your argument would be aberra-
ton, or almost ALTERATION, on the
operators part. It makes me think of
lunacy story.
ga commissioner in lunacy had
called a woman to the stand.
"'And now, said the commissioner
attorney to her, what is your ground
for claiming that the prisoner is in
sane?'
"The woman gulped, wiped her
eyes and answered:
"'Wel!, gentlemen, he took me to
the theatre twice in one week. Each
time we went in a taxicab, we had
supper each time after the perform
ance, and each time be bought me
| chocolates and flowers. He didn't
once go out to see man between the
acts, either
But, Madam said commissioner,
surely these actions do not prove in
sanity on the prisoners part.
But you forget, sir, said the lady,
with sad smile, you forget that the
prisoner is my husband"
Near DurwaTds Glen Miss McDon-
aid had class of very young pupils
before her and the lesson was on the
word "riddle." No one knew the
word or its meaning. The teacher
then told them riddle-"What has

Answer, ga clothes pin"
snow does the class know what a
riddle is," the teacher asked.
Up went several small hands, all
anxious TO tell.

instructor to little Clarence Helm.
"Its safety pin," he shouted.
Those at Baraboo interested in the
recent young lady high school debate
between Reedsburg and Baraboo at
the Second city, are inclined to believe
the Reedsburg speakers leaned heavily
on University Extension-Antigo
past events or something of the sort.
After the decision protest was made
but the judges said the incident was
closed and there was nothing to do but
