Men Who Toll for Wages

Wilmington, Del, Feb. 23.-Miss
Jessie Woodrow Wilson. daughter of
the president-elect, made an address
here yesterday in support of the pas
sage by the Delaware legislature OF a
bill limiting the work day for women
to ten hours. The daughter of the next
president pointed out that New Jersey
had an eight-hour law for workers and
that thirty states have adopted a ten
hour law. She asked, in view of the
efficiency shown by the workers under
these laws, why Delaware should not
try similar legislation.

The report short time ago tina!
the Northwestern Felt Shoe factory
might move to Perry aroused the in
terest of many of our people who
were employed by the factory. shoes
were turned out a year, and such
other things. The factory employs
regularly thirty-two people and in
the busy season has fifty on the pay
roll. The pay roll for the year will
amount to $4,000, not Including
the pay and expenses Of ten travel
ing men on the road during the sea
son. 100000 pairs of felt shoes
are turned out on an average each
year, and this does not supply the
demand that is made by dealers an6
jobbers throughout the country. The
felt shoes made in Webster City
have come to be known throughout
the country as having few equals
and no superiors. Among the larg-
est stores in the United States car
be found the felt shoes made by ths
company in this city and they art
very popular. Sixty different styles
are made and in eighteen differen
colors. Some OF the shoes are made
with hard leather soles and some
with cushion soles. Any one look
ing for a comfortable shoe in this
line would easily find it If they had
the opportunity OF looking over the
display shown by the Northwestern
Felt Shoe company.

Base Ball.

The base ball game, the last the
White Sox were to play this year
and which was to have been contest
ed in Fort Dodge today, has been
cancelled.
Work will be commenced this
week to put the Athletic Park
grounds in proper shape for the foot
ball season which commences the
27th, the high school team of this
city playing at Ackley. There is
some talk of base ball game with
two teams composed >of the sox and
some of the old time ball players of
the city for the benefit Of the Sox.
The majority of these played on an
extremely small salary and did ev-
erything in their power to help the
association along this year so that it
could get on its feet, as the first year
Is generally the hardest for a team
to meet its expenses.

|ery record for growth in numbers O
students enrolled at Iowa State col
Ilege had been smashe ed. At that tim'
l2,4S7 were registered; this week th'
total will go beyond the $500 mark
That is a gain Of 465 over the tota
enrolment of last year, about double
the gain made in any previous year
These figures do not include winte!
short course students, but regular
students who are in residence at the
college.
The gain in attendance at this
time is 23 per cent over year ago
That is we'll divided among the diff
ferent divisions of the college. but
the gain in home economic students
is greatest. A year ago a total OF
81 young women were enrolled in
the year home economics courses
this year the total is 43S, not count
ing the young women in the new
two year course. That is gain OF
more than 40 per cent.
In the four and five year engin'
eering courses, the college has this
year total of 663 students, not
counting the students in the new
two year course, as against 5S4 last
year. That is a gain of more than
IL per cent. ."....
The agricultural division keeps its
place at the head of the list in point
Of numbers. 1t has at this time a
total of S94 students in the regular
college courses and 203 in the two
year courses. The division has made
d gain OF Is per cent at this tins
over its enrolment of four year stu
dents a year ago. Before the end
of the year the gain will probably
reach 90 per cent.

rise on the morning of April Sth,
1852, and ever since that time he's
been hustling around with firm
determination that he will own Lyon
township and about half of Jewell.
and if he don't slip the emergency
brake on within the next few years,
he's going to have an almighty big
tax receipt.
Mr.. Anderson didn't know any
more than some of the rest of the
Canadians when he was born, but
when they opened his hand to give
him his first bath, they found a.
spelling book and physiology.
AS long as he lived in Canada he
taught school, but about hundred
years after the first 4th of July cele-
bration, he came over in uncle yani's
domain. He travelled over this coun-
try considerably until he reached a
point two miles due east of here and
then he hesitated.
The country looked a triffe wild
and some woody. but the Honorable
Bill figured that about the best piece
of land he'd seen this side of Can
ada line, was the farm he was on
and he bought 1t.
Mr.. Anderson has tried his hand
at various occupations. He served
as county auditor for four years.
Figures made him dizzy, he tried
superintendency of county schools
for four years. So many children in
the schools through the county were
eating ofions he did not run for
third term Then he went into the
banking business and cashed checks
for the poor and needy at the First
National Bank of Webster City for
a few years. He was vice president
of the State Bank of Jewell for sew
eral years and was later elected
president and held that position
from the year Tige got his tail broke
in corn shelter until after the cleo
trio light plant was started. He
was elected representative from
Hamilton county in 1906 and in
1908. Il
Mr.. Anderson has always been a
republican until Theodore and Willie
got to quarreling over bowl of
soup then Doc Della and Doc Slater
got a firm grip on his political
throat and he Is now full fiedged
Bull Mooser, with the accent on the
first syllable.
Since coming to the United
States, Uncle Bill has never wanted
anything that he didn't get. but he
always gave due notice that he was
going after it
For two years he has been mayor
of Jewell and the boys do not mind
paying small fine with the trim
mings attached because he can say
$40 and costs" so easy and in such
a pleasant manner.
A great many of the progressive
movements made In Jewell We're
hatched in the mind Of Honorable
William Anderson and when they
were right he fought shoulder to
shoulder with the people for what
they wanted
