ASK ABOUT PENSION LAW

Many applications have been made
to the state board of control at Madi-
SOD, asking for aid under the Rosa

thatthecounty superintendent of poor,
chairman of any town, or any rela-
tive or friend ofany child under the
age of IA who for any reason is de
pendent upon the spublic for support
or whose parents are unable without
aid properly to maintain, to bring up
or educate such child, may apply by
| petition to the juvenile court in coun-
ties having such court and in
other counties to county or
municipal court for aid. 1t aims

cretion in handling children, keepin
ever in mind the best welfare of the
child. The county board shall elect

THE FAIR THAT'S SQUARE

One of the reasons why Columbia
county people are proud of their fair
is that it gives everybody-exhibitors,
race horse men, concessionaries, the
public in general square deal. It
meets every obligation, keeps every
promise, pays every purse or premium
promptly and in full. So when Sec
rotary Rhyme announces that the an
nual exhibition at Portage, Aug. &C.
29th will in many respects eclipse ell
previous efforts. It means something.
To this statement President Hecker
and the directors give endorsement.
In almost every department more pre-
miums or larger premiums are offered
this year. The entire list has been re-
vised and amplified. Drop a post
card to the secretary and get free
premium list. It will convince you.
Compare the premiums with those OF
any other county fair in the middle
west. And then recollect how this
fair has always made good, even tC
giving a free aviation day when the
aviator under contract for ihe fair was
prevented by accident from keeping
his engagement at the fair. 1t cost
the management over $500 to put on
that extra free aviation exhibition
but they regard money we'll spent
that enables them to keep faith with
the public.
This year the Columbia County Fair
is in the Wisconsin Grand Circuit
which assures a horse racing program
of exceptional merit. Speed Su'
perintendent Bronson reports that the
early closing races filled with larger
fields than ever. w. g. Robbins, Chi
cago, will start the horses as before
Amusement features will include
the usual attractive array of vaude'
vile stunts, only more of them and
better, more novel acts. There will be
base ball game every day. Lodi
and The Portage Railroaders will be
matched in one OF the contests
Other strong teams umpire the
games. The famous Portage band,
the cambria band, the Rio band and
others will furnish the music. Dan
ces, free street shows and other
amusements will help make the fail
happy holiday for everybody.
Special trains, as usual, comfortable
convenient and enjoyable trip to the
fair is offered.
