The Reason Why.

Another Georgia town has voted in
favor of saloons and here is the reason
given by citizen: "If we are going
to stand for our women folks wearing
shadow skirts and silk skirts, and trans
parent skirts and our younger women
learning to dance the boil weevil, the
Texas Tommy tango, the bunny hug,
the bear dance, the half center, the
buzzard flop, and the puppy huddle
and so on down the line, then the men
folks might just as well have their
saloons and the whole push go to hell
together.

We regret also to lose Misses Far
leigh and Hyde who will not return.
But in saying goodbye to these
faithful ones we also extend hearty
welcome to Prof. Wilson who will
again take up the work he left two
years ago.
We feel sure he will find that the
"Good seed" he sowed, fell in good
soil: and that the garden he planted
and cared for so tenderly in its embryo
has yielded an abundant harvest,
which he may well be proud to own.

be very pleasing to the community if
it would purchase street sprinkler.

ruins houses, dresses, ETC., which is

ing apparel more expensive. The men
have to foot the bills, they pay the
taxes. Give the town a sprinkler.

SANITY IN CELEBRATIONS
NO ACCIDENT TO MAR DAYS
PLEASURES
Large Crowds Gather Patriotic Ad-
dresses-Quiet and Orderly OBJ
servance All About

We are drifting to sane Fourth of
July celebrations, and such the late
one appears to have been, for we have
heard Of no serious accidents occurring
on that cev within the county, although
there were q half dozen or more gener-
al, observances of the day. Viroqua
people scattered in all directions. A
heavy rain storm visited this immedi-
ate community on Friday night and
made the outlook a gloomy one, but
north and west there was little rain.
Morning of the Fourth opened bright
and cheer was upon every countenance.
The Southeastern train carried away
in the morning $50 passengers, most of
them going to Lacrosse, the Regiment
al Band having an engagement there
to play. Others went to Westby, some
to LaFarge, Liberty Pole and elsewhere.
LaFarge gathered big assemblage
of people, yet not what it would have
been but for heavy rain on the night
previous and consequent bad roads.
Westby entertained her gr eatest
crowd in history of the town, and a
most enjoyable time it was made for
the large throng. There wa3 some
thing all day 10 entertain the people,
closing with bowery dance in the
evening. The address by Postmaster
c. j. Smith was we'll appreciated and
commented upon, dealing with the three
periods of national existence-she his
torical times adoption of the con-
stitution, the Civil war period, the pres
emit and future. The moral and religi-
Gus phases of today's life we're dwelt
upon, taking strong position that we
need more of the moral training in our
general education. The band, sports,
booths. and the delightful grove in
which the exercises were held, all con-
tributed to Westby's well conducted
celebration. Profits from the days eff
forts are to 60 toward the purchase of
public park, the hope being that the
grounds on which the celebration was
held may be secured for that purpose.
A good crowd gathered at Liberty
Pole, and it seemed like the days Of old
when it was point where reat crowds
assembled for celebrations. The main
feature was the address of Rev. Phelps,
singing and sports
Lacrosse had a week of homecoming,
closing with a general celebration.
DisaRreeable weather materially inter-
fered with the general program, but
on the Fourth record crowd was theirs.
From other points come reports of
well-maintained patriotic observance of
the natal day, sane in its purpose and
features
