more for milk If he knew 1t to be alb
solutely pure.
Councilman Russell made q vigorous
plea for the passage of the ordinance.
He declared that people of this day
and age were demanding progressive
legislation, more careful consideration
of and conservation OF public health
and welfare. He said the pending Or
dinance was responsive to this demand
and that a great mistake would be
made if 1t was voted down.
He pointed out that the Fort Wayne
milk inspection ordinance, which
served as a model for the local ordi-
nance, had proved practical and had
greatly reduced the death rate among
babies in that city.
IF this ordinance could save the
lives of five infants no hesitancy
should be shown in passing it," he de-
clared Our babies canot lobby for
its passage but our Commercial club
and our physicians have urged its
adoption"
His remarks were frequently inter
rupted by the undertone comments Of
the dairy lobby.
Peeved at Dr.. Ross.
Dr. Ross asked the privilege Of ad-
dressing council, which was granted
him, and he eloquently urged the
adoption of the measure. AS the hour
was growing late several cOuncilmen
listened with much Impotence to his
excellent arguments. for, as Council
man Williams had expressed it, I'VE
have all made up our minds and we
Nigh as well vote as soon as possible
DR.. Ross declared that there was
much room for improving the local
milk supply and its distribution. He
pointed out that while five infants had
died in Fort Wayne last year of diar-
rheal diseases, eighteen had died in
Richmond last year of the same cause.
Statistics showed, he said, that 81 per
cent of babies who died of such dis.
eases were nourished on cows milk.
He said that last year there were 81
cases of typhoid in this city and that
most of them had ben traced to i'm
pure milk bottles. Even if better milk
meant slight increase in price it was
better to pay this increase. he said
and save on funeral expenses and doc
tor bills
He said it was generally understood
that this Progressive administration
was to pass the pending measure and
he asserted that if it had been thought
for one moment it was in danger there
would have been much larger lobby
present to work in it's interests.

SCIENTIFIC CHARITY

cities grew SO rapidly that no provi-
sion was made for proper recreation
of children and adults. Some one has
graphically said that during this peri
Cd the modern world, mad in it's chase
for gold, built it's temples of worship,
its dungeons for work, and allowed
only it's waste places to play. Condi-
tons such as these left a wide open
door for the commercialization of re-
creation.
The result of all this wonderful de-
velopment in the Nineteenth century,
of both good and evil, was that along
side of DIVES, clad in fine linen and
rich purple and adorned with jewels
and living in luxury. was Lazarus at
his gate, poor and hungry and sick
and suffering. and DIVES rode by with
out extending a helping hand or offer
ing the ministry of the human touch,
and dogs came and licked his sores
Disease Prevails.
ut was during the latter half Of the
Nineteenth century that, due to living
conditions and other neglect of hui
name duties, that tuberculosis, for ex-
ample, reached it's climax, carrying
away nearly 100000 people to an I'M
timely grave every year. Cancer and
other dreadful diseases increased their
ravages far more rapidly than the
population increased Insanity like
wise, was shown to be overtaking it's
victims much more rapidly than in
any other period of the worlds his
tory.
During the closing decade of the
Nineteenth century many Of these
facts were being discovered; the con-
science of the nation was aroused, and
a great progressive movement began,
which means a reformation and re-
construction of the social world, and
this is the task of the Twentieth cen
fury.
LAS charity work has grown, the
demand for charity has increased.

Much of it is legitimate, but there
are too many fleecers being encour-
aged in their work. One day last
winter a man came to me who wanted
$50 to 60 to Delaware to see his
dying wife. He named all the Lu-
theran ministers in three states, and
showed me good credentials. l gave
him the money, and afterward l found
that none of the ministers he claimed
as his personal friends, had ever heard
of him.
Wrong Giving Crime.
1--WE are all charitably disposed. 1t
is easier to give than to refuse. But
to give promiscuously is wrong and
a crime. Because some people find it
SO easy to get money that they en-
courage the next generation of their
children to sit around and wait for
their dole, is the reason for our Or
phanages, our insane asylums and
poor farms.
I'VE must cut out this waste OF
charity. And you business men write
notes too easily and sign your names
to testimonials too quickly. Two col
ored men recently came to Cincinnati
soliciting for for the Bethesda Indus
trial Home in Lexington. They had
credentials and testimonials from two
ex-governors of Kentucky, a chief Of
police, two ex-mayors and from the
Chamber of Commerce. On investiga-
ton we found that the home con-
sisted of a mere option on a dilapi-
dated old building that could not be
made home for anything. The men.
through their good credentials, had
subscriptions for $4,000 and nobody
knows how many thousands they had
collected in cash.
Even with your panic-proof pros
perity in Richmond you can not afford
to give to such things. 1t is for you to
organize and protect yourselves as
we'll as your worthy poor. Our work
in Dayton is annually becoming more
systematic. Before we organized, We

ity organizations of the city. In these

"WHERE THE TRAIL DIVIDES,

Every one who saw Robert Edeson
in 'Strongheart'' will want to see
Where The Trail Divides a new
Indian play of which that splendid
young actor is the author.
Mr.. Edeson has made a thorough
study of the American Indian and in
his new play he had made How
Lander. an educated Sioux, his princi-
pal character lie wrote the play
from asuggestion by Will Lillibridge's
novel of the same name.
The How Lander of Where The
Trail Divides" is a real American
who knows how to love and hate. He
is savage who has been through the
melting pot" and who has come out
a wholesome and splendid type Of
manhood.
In the play How Lander loves his
foster sister, BesS Lander, and has for
his rival a rich young New Yorker
who seeks the girls inheritance rather
than her love. Race hatred plays an
important part in the story of the
play but in the end How Lancer
triumphs and the curtain goes down
on scene just as the audience you'd
have il.
Mr.. EdeSon has written splendid
play, one that will appeal TO all classes
OF theatre goers because of its whole
someness and because of the beautiful
story it tells. Mr. Edeson personally
appeared in the character of How
Lander last season and the play comes
here with the stamp Of approval of
both New York and Chicago, where
il has been presented
Mr.. Primrose has enlarged upon the
scenic production made by the late
Henry b. Harris, which will be seen
at the Grand on Thursday night.
The company that is seen in the play
this season is a fine one, including
several Metropolitan fayorites.

WAUSAU MAY GET A KNIT
TING MILL.

Through the efforts of the Wausau
Advancement association. a PROPOSE
tion has been submitted to local bust
ness men to bring knitting mill to
Wausau. The plant in question is a
growing. concern whose goods were
pronounced of very excellent values
by all merchants who inspected the
sample line displayed at the meeting
called at the WauSau club Monday
evening. The owners would like to
locate in Wausau provided that they
can interest some local capita, and
in the opinion of the Advancement
association it is an industry that
would be good for the town. Knit
ting mills employ all girl 'Aelp at
good wages and this money at once
gets back into the channels of the
city, thus benefiting all engaged in
mercantile pursuits. The manufac-
turing profit in knitted goods is COM
paratively large, as a result of which
the concerns located at ManitoWoc,
Two Rivers, Appleton, Menasha and
even Merrill have grown very rapidly,
giving employment to large class of
hitherto unemployed and making
good profits for the owners. 1t is to
be hoped that our bu siness men will
not let this mill get AWAY from

WISCONSIN AGAIN
TO LEAD NATION
Christmas Seal Money Spent to Per-
manently Eradicate Disease.

Wisconsin gives promise of again
standing first in the Red Cross Christ
mas Seal Cam paignn is the statement
OF Otto +. Bradley, campaign mana
ger of the Wisconsin Anti-Tubercul-
osis Association. THE returns are
not complete enough At the present
time, however, to warrant an estimate
of what the total sale will be.
The money from the Red Cross
Seals this year is TO be used in a
campaign for the permanent eradica-
ton OF preyentable disease, primarily
among children. Organized relief is
the policy of The association. 1t does
not give money toindividual sufferers.
Such policy, on the face of it, would
be folly. The $l6, 900 netted last year
from seals, if distributed among the
1900 living cases of tuberculosis in
wisconsin would mean little more
than half dollar per case per year
without counting the cost of attempt
ing to administer such fund for the
whole state of Wisconsin efficiently
and with justice which would be inn
possible.
The association by securing the es-
tablishment of visiting nurses and
sanatoria has procured care for far
more patients than it could have by
spending its limited means on the
patients directly. Furthermore, it's
work is permanent, and will be self
perpetuating. In addition. the edu-
cation of the general public has been
even more important
1.-TWO facts should not be over
looked.
First: During the past five years
the death rate from tuberculosis in
Wisconsin has decreased six times as
fast as the total death rate
Second Wisconsin now has the
third lowest death rate of all the
forty-eight states i'm the Union.'

Mayor Head, $50 that if the people
desire the new form of government.
the change can be accomplished, with
out delay. If the change is ordered
in the special election, the commits
sioners can be chosen at the time of
the regular spring election
Sentiment for the change is bas ed
largely upon observation of the sue
cest of the plan where tried in other
Wisconsin cities, including Eau Claire
and GAINESVILLE. and upon the expe-
rience that the aldermanic system is
nnwieldy and inefficient. The move
ment is not backed by any special
organization. Among leading advo-
Gates of the change are NJ. G. O'Don-
nell, ex-Ald. j. G.. Rhode and Prof. O.
L. Trenary, head of the commercial
college.

ment for Wausau.

EuQeRic Marriages.

The marriage situation for willing
individuals is clearing up somewhat.
1t begins to be apparent that the re-
quirements of the new eugenic law
which went into force on the first of
January, can be applied with under
the Interpretation of the attorney
general.
As matter of fact, chapter 73s of
the statutes, which covers this sub
ject is being followed, physical ex-
aminationS by legally qualified ply
sicians are now made, they are recog-
nized by the county clerks, who issue
marriage licenses based on such ex-
aminationS from certificates filed, and
everything points to thenear approach
of the wedding day, just as it used to
occur i'm the days of yore.
And is not this the outcome which
should result from this legislation :?
Ought not the law to be given such
an Interpretation as would permit it
TO be complied with? Ought not the
attorney generals view 60 be accepted
rather than some strict, technical con-
Struction2 And above all, ought not
the road of matrimony to be made
easy rather than 6imcult or impossi-
BILE ?
These questions are pertinent to
the present inquiry and all admit of
but one reply and that in the affirm
alive.
Ii may be answered that such a
course defeats the very purpose and
aim of the law, which was, evidently,
to avoid the transmission of disease
But, if this be So. il was not the pur-
pose to make this marriage impossible.
Would not that make the law void as
against sound public policy? And
strict construction. one requiring the
laboratory tests, would do this very
thing, and requirement not deemed
necessary under the attorney ger erals
Interpretation
But both the legal and marriage at
mosphere is clarifying. And all
promises well, as it should. The
rumpus has been more or less a
tempest in teapot among the
'uplifUers' anyhow.-M waukee

STATE SENATOR w. w. ALBERs of
the Twenty-tifth Senatorial district
made a pointed observation relative
to Democratic advantage in an inter
view during a short visit in Milwaukee
Thursday.
Asked what he thought of the Dem
ocratic outlook in the state this fall
Mr.. Albers said
''The Democrats would have a
pretty good chance for a victory il
they would quit fighting among them
selves and unite on some good strong
candidates for the nomination for
governor and United States senator.
If, however, every man who has ever
voted for the party continues to desire
to be a general candidate for either
United States senator or governor,
the party will become hopelessly
divided and go down to defeat.
Mr.. Albers said he had not yet de-
cided whether he should be a candi-
date for reelection in the Twenty-tifth
Senatorial district.
Mr.. Albers resides in Wausau and
it is said a good many residents of
that city are anxious he shall be a
candidate to succeed himself.-Mil-
