SMALL WARS MEAN BIG POEMS
Greatest Battle Hymns Have Not
Been Inspired by Titanic Strug-
giles Like the Present One.

The greatest poeiAs have been writ
ten about little wars The Iliad was
written around a siege carried on by
a handful Of barbarian chieftains
against a city of the second class. The
battle Of Chevy Chase was border
skirmish following upon a cattle-steal
ing expedition. And Kipling's imperia
muse is at her best when she sings
Of petty wars with colored tribesmen
Britain's far-f1ung battle line was faI
flung against Dervishers and Afrids;
it was seldom brought into collision
with field intrenchments and siege ar
tillery. Little war, or else big wars
in anticipation of retrospect, these are
the rich soil for the poet.
A great war in the actual, the fate
of an empire truly at stake, may make
poets out of the common crowd, but
;ubdues the poet to the level OF the
common crowd. There is a solemn tone
lbout Kipling's latest verse which has
it's effect. Only it Is not exhortation
we wanted, but exultation; not an ap.
peal, but clarion call. When an en-
tire nation is afame the poet is apt tc
ind his mission rather perfunctory.

PICKED OUT THE RIGHT TIME
Girl Made Victim of Hoax by Mis-
chievous Friends Went Home
in Fury.

One day several of my girl friends
called to see me- We started to make
some candy when / discovered that
we didn't have any chocolate in the
house and said that couldn't possibly
make it without "a speck of choco-
late"
Mary, one of the girls, said: why.
what kind of chocolate is that
couldn't you use any other kind? ?'
One of the girls gave me a pinch
and said: "Oh, no, | couldn't use any
other kind. It's new kind. You
telephone the grocery and order some,
Mary, and we'll start the candy. Now
be sure and order 'Aspecka.'"
so We filed to the kitchen and left
Mary to telephone. We sat in the
kitchen holding our sides with sup
pressed laughter while she called up
one store after another trying to get
"Aspecka chocolate" She finally gave
up in despair and then we told her.
Needless to say. she went home in a
fury, as mad as wet hen. She bare

interesting. She says:

Charles Marie Weber. German Inn
migrant, who founded the city Of
Stockton, Cal, was born 100 years ago
IN Rhenish. Bavaria. At the age OF
TWENTY-FIVE he came to America and
settled for time In New Orleans.
He next went to Texas, and served in
. military capacity under Gen. Sam
Houston. In 1871 he started for Calf
fornia with few companions. He
obtained grant of IS, 900 acres in the
San Joaquin valley, and on the pres
ent site OF the city of Stockton he first
encamped with 100 horses. Through
the years of danger and turmoil that
followed he never abandoned his plan
OF settlement, but carried It to sue
cess. Through his activity in pro-
tectins the American settlers against
the Msxicans he was thrown into
prison. Commodore Stockton came to
his lid, and in gratitude Weber named
his new settlement after the Ameri-
can officer. He laid out the city OF
Stockton and lived to see it develop
into fiourishing commr-ity. He
died In Stockton In 1881.

candidates so that there can be no ex-
cuse for the nomination of any but the
best men in the primaries on the
ground of ignorance. Ii this non
partisan election is entered into in the
proper spirit and the voters put aside
all craftsmanship and make their selec-

good men are to be elected is In the

Duel From Viewpoint Of Law.

The general rule is that a party
voluntarily and willingly entering into
q mutual combat cannot justify re-
sulting homicide unless he does SOME
thing, as, fc4 example, withdrawing
from the combat, which would relieve

ing it; the reason being that one can
not take human life upon necessity
which he wrongfully assisted to
create.

TO LECTURE IN KENosHA.
L. L. Summers of National Educational
Bureau to Lecture Here Soon.


On Tuesday evening, March 18th,
there will be lecture in the high
school assembly room, by L. L. Sum
mers, who is connected with the Bureau
of Education in Washington.
During the past year, Mr.. Summers,
as representative Of the U. S. Depart
ment of Education, has been making a
study of the industrial and trade
schools OF Saxony and Bavaria, giving
most of his time to special study of
the schools of Munich. The Munich in
dustrial schools are said to be the best
in all Germany.
The high standard of these schools
and the simple workable plan in oper-
alton, made deep impression upon Mr..
Summers, and through his initiative
the city of Munich has granted per-
mission to the U. S. Commissioner of
Education to send twenty American
industrial teachers to Munich, for three
months study and observation in the
continuation and trade schools of that
city. Mr.. Summers will leave for Nun
ich in April with these twenty selected
students.
He comes here from quite an extend
ed tour of Wisconsin. He has lectured
in Oshkosh, Appleton, Menominee at
the Stout Institute, and Racine. Pre-
vious to coming to Wisconsin he visited
other states.
Press notices of his lectures in Chi
|cago, Evanston, and other cities will
appear IN this paper later. All people
interested in this form of education are
invited to be present. Admission free

Cold weather brings about a great
deal of suffering. By driving people
indoors and by tempting them to shut
out all fresh air it makes for house
psller, spring anaemias, colds, coughs,
and pneumonia. But cold weather is
obedient to the laws of compensation,
The streets and roads covered by
snow do not contribute to atmos-
pheric dust as at other times, and
thus one source of colds is re-
moved Many mosquitoes and flies
are killed, and the next season starts
with diminished supply. Occasional
ly a hard winter has ended the ravages
of some insect or interrupted them
for decade,
During the last seven years health
officers have carefully studied the eff
fects of freezing on pollution in water,
The practical bearing of these studies
has been to determine when is natural
ice safe. When typhoid and colon ba-
cilli are frozen in water, they die off
after a certain length of time. Ruedi-
ger found that 99.9 per cent of the
typhoid baclli we're dead in eight
days; 81 per cent of colon bacilli had
persisted in that time, In thirty-one
days all of the typhoid bacilli and in
forty-six days all of the colon baeilli
were dead. This was about the con
clusion of Park.
1 think sanitarians are agreed now
that natural ice that looks clean and
that is frozen from reasonably good
water is free from live bacteria sixty
days after freezing Such ice ninety
days old. say on and after April /,
is entirely safe.
In freezing 80 per cent of the hac-
terra are mechanically removed under
ordinary circumstances by the act OF
capitalization, this apart from the late
biological processes. w. a. Evans
