Former Residents Of City Erecting Fine
Residence at Lake Forest.
Marshalltown friends Of Mr. and
Mrs. Charles H. Ackert, former resi-
dents of this city. will be interested in
learning of their new home now under
course Of construction at Lake Forest,
III.
Last spring Mr.. Ackert purchased a
tract of land Of thirty acres at Lake
Forest, on Telegraph Road, for the
purpose Of building a country home.
Lake Forest is noted for its beautlfui
and palatial residences, and the AcEert
home will be credit to the community
as we'll as the owner.
The house Is a reproduction OF
George washington's home at Mt. YER
non, only on a much larger ana more
modern scale. Thru the center OF the
house, on the first floor. Is the great
hall, Off of which are seven spacious
rooms and a large sun parlor TO De
used winter and summer. The family
sleeping rooms, and several guest
rooms, comprise the plan Of the second
floor. On the third floor are several
more sleeping rooms, with the SER
wants quarters in the rear. There are
several large sleeping porches Oft the
second floor.
An interesting feature Of the home is
the fact that 1t Will be furnished entire
ly In old mahogany colonial furniture,
which Mr. and Mrs. Ackert have col
lected in their extensive travels. Most
of the pieces were picked up in the
southern states, Old Mexico. Canada,
and Germany. Some are very rare
and valuable, and have many historical
and quaint bits of history attached to
them. The collection is considered one
Of the most complete and finest 10 the
country. There is lodge for the care
taker and garages on the grounds,
which are ideal surroundings for such
q home.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ackert expect to occu-
py the house in the early spring. At
present they are in Florida.

Oldest Mason in State
v Claims Residence Here

Marshalltown claims as resident a
man who, in all probability. Is the old
est Free Mason in the state of Iowa. He
is William L. NJ. Wensel, the aged
father of Mrs. 7. j. Shoemaker, who
makes his home with his daughter at
406 Norh Center street.
II he lives until next March Mr..
Wensel, at the age Of 30 years. will have
seen a Mason for sixty-one years. He
became a member IF the Minersville
Pa, lodge, No 222, March so, 1852 The
record Of the grand lodge OF Pennsyl-
vania shows Mr.. Wensel to have been
! initiated Feb. 8, 1852, passed March 2,
1852, and raised March 80, 1852. The
record also shows him to have resigned
May %. 1866, when he took a dcmit
from the PENNSYLVANIA lodge to become
a member Of the Melbourne lodge, Full
Moon, No. 561. Mr.. Wensel still holds
his membership in the Melbourne lodge.
Is Native Of Pennsylvania.
| Mr.. Wensel is a native of Northum-
! berland county, Pennsylvania. where he
, was born Feb. IS, 1898, making him
now in his Goth year. In April, 1S49,
he married Margaret Smith of Potts
! vile. Pa, the old home town Of both
! Mr.. and Mrs. Wensel. In 1855 Mr..
/ Wensel came west, and entered $50
! acres of land in Logan township. in
this county. He then returned to Penn
eylvania, where he was already en-
gagged in the brick manufacturing bus
mess. Then the civil wa broke out.
and Mr.. Wensel responded 20 the first
/ call for $4,000 volunteers. He served
I in a regiment from his native state
from 1851 to 1853.
Comes to County in 1866.
After the war Mr. Wensal decided to
I come to Iowa and engage In farming on
the land that he had acquired ten years
previously This he did. and in 1856
landed at Melbourne with his family.
! He has been a resident of this country
ever since
Now Owns 1000 Acres.
Mr.. Wensel has become wealthy thru
the good mana cement OF his farms and
! the increased value of the land that he
acquired originally and since he came
to the county to live. He now owns
| 900 acres including $50 acres in this
county. Three hundred twenty acres Of
! the land are in fine farms near Mel
bourne and there is another twenty
acre tract in the town .. Melbourne.
! The rest Of his land Is REPRESENTED by
: q section in Brown county, South Da-
! kota. near the town of Groton.
| or the original $50 acres that Mr..
! Wensel bought he sold q portion to the
| Milwaukee Land Company. which plat
i ted it for what is now the town OF
Melbourne Another farm out Of the
! original tract was sold during the past
summer to Frank Butler at 500 per
acre-land that. in 1855, cost 1925 per
! acre.
Was First Mayor of Melbourne.
1t was quite fitting that Mr. Wensel.
! having sold the land that provided tn"
site for the town of Melbourne. should
be the first mayor of tho town. He
was the first trustee to he elected for
J Logan township, and when Melbourne
was Incorporated as a town became
| it's first mayor.

gracefully is shown by hi, activities at
! his advanced age. He en- S unusually

The building of the Orange and
Northeastern into the Calcasieu
parish as far as Vinton has been
a great movement on the part of
the enterprising citizens of Orange
and East Texas. 1t means the
development of a new section con-
tigious. which Orange is sure to
profit by.
Speaking of the new line build
ing into Calcasieu parish, and
what it means to Orange ana East
Texas. the Beaumont Enterprise

Asweil Getting On to The
Ropes"

DIR. j. B. Aswell, congressman
elect from the new eight distric
of Louisiana. who will take his
seat as a member of the lower
house when President Wilson calls
the promised extra session about
the middle of March, has been
spending a couple of weeks at the
national capital. He has been
there for the purpose of getting
on to the ropes" which is a very
good way for a PROSPECTIVE con-
gresham to spend his time before
taking his seat. 1t means that
when DIR. Aswell goes to Wash
ington as a member of congress
he will know something, at least
about how the body transacts bu-
srness, and will therefore be in
better position to begin giving his
constituents good service at the
very beginning of his term. Or
dinarily the new congressman
would not take his seat until next
December, thirteen months after
his election and nearly sixteen
months after his nomination, which
| in this state of course, is equlva-
lent to an election. On his return
through the city of New Orleans
DR.. Aswell expressed the opinion
that while a general revision down
ward of the tariff is certain, he
found in Washington among the
lawmakers no disposition to put
any Louisiana industry entirely
out of buslness-that he did not
believe there was any danger OF
putting either rice or sugar on
the free list. DR.. Aswell has
been assured that that he will
have an assignment on the agri-
cultural committee, in which pc
sition he will be able to give his
eight district constituents splen.
did service. And while no men.
ton has been made of his name in
connection with the committee or
education, his knowledge and ex.
perlence in educational matters
should clearly entitle him to a po-
sition on this committee also. AS
an educator, DIR. Aswell enjoys
a nation wide reputation anc
would be able to give, as a mem
Der of this house committee, serv'
ice that would be of value to the

work in Vinton last Thursday.
There is no limit to the POSSIBLE
ties of the ORANGE Northeastern
project. There is absolute need
of the road contemplated there
under, and if those who have
started to build it will stick to
their purpose they will ultimately
develop one of the most important
north and south lines in the
country-a line which should be-
come the greatest single factor in
stimulating the growth of Orange
and the settlement Of Western
Louisiana.

are being spent in an effort to i'm

throughout the parish, are in q
deplorable condition, and the re-

A dear old lady who was reigning
belle and beauty in her day not only in
her native State, but in many others
and whose lovely face and character.
charming manners and youthful spirits
still possess wonderful charm for those
who are privileged to enjoy them, sent
the editor the following verses clipped
from big city daily, with a request
that it be published and commented
upon. The last we will leave to those
of our readers who feel so inclined and
assure them, that the more we hear
from, the more interesting it will be:
Little girl, you look so small,
Don't YOU wear no clothes ar all?
Don't you wear no shimmy shirt?
Don't you wear no petty skirt?
Just your corset and your hose
Are those all your underclothes?
Little girl, when you're on the street
You appear to be all feet.
With your dress so very tight
You are sure an awful sight.
Nothing on to keep you warm,
Crazy just to show your form.
Little girl, you won't live long
Just because you dress all wrong
Can't you wear more underclothes,
Than your corset and your hose?
After while, do believe,
You will dress like Mother Eve.
LITTLE GIRLS ANSWER
TO GRANDMOTHER'S SAY:
Though we look so very small,
1t would take a deal Of gaul,
And no chance to be flirt,
Should we wear a shimmy shirt.
Men don't see our underclothes
And not one in twenty knows
The need of such superfous dress
To hide us from the eager stress
Of eyes that never look at clothes,
But seek the real thing-thats what
goes.
The real girl, the form, the shape,
Even though old Eve we ape.
It's men we please-not old Grandmas,
Who look so far above the stars
For thing of old-now obsolete
But not for girls on Dexter Street"
