Many wonder why their children do

Today many, of our young women
are studying childhood. But the
number is too few. Twenty years
ago Mrs. Robert Cotton, of Bruce,

women for their most glorious

from Mrs. Gotten:

c. A. R. Reunion a, Madison.

The annual state eneampment Of the
G. A. II. will be held at Madison, June
8 to IL. During the Civil War, over
40, 900 Wisconsin soldiers were at var
ious times quartered at Camp Randall.
Many Of them, alas. returned later to
make their eternal eneampment in
Forest Hill cemetery. As with the ma
tons capital, Wisconsin's capital, dur
ing the four years of war, resenbled
an armed camp. Almost constantly,
Madison contained large bodies Of
troops in camp and hospital; the streets
resounded to the tread Of blue-clad sol
diery arriving or departing; even, for
a time, the presence Of boys in gray,
forlorn prisoners. was not hacking, and
one hundred and thirty-nine Of them lie
buried close to Soldiers Rest on beau
tifpl Forest Hill.
1t is fitting, therefore, that the few
survivors Of the Wisconsin boys in blue
should foregather in Madison this year.
Camp Randall now resounds TO no more
warlike strife than the friendly rivalry
Of contending athletic teams, but the
veterans viii find in the State Historic
cal Museum the battle scared banners
which they carried through the war,
besides many another personal remind
er Of the grim struggle. In honor Of
their presence, special wartime ex-
hibit Is being prepared at the Historical
Museum. II is hoped that every vet
eran will visit IT,

Dedication of Pleasant View Church.


Pleasant View church is located three
miles east of Mineral Point and stands
on the site once occupied ty the Good
Templars' hall. The old hall had been
used by the Primitive Methodist society
of Pleasant View for nearly forty years.
Last September society meeting
was called to decide on repairing the
old hall Twelve people, more or less,
came to this meeting and decided to
repair the hall but the suggestion co
built a new church was made by the
pastor. One of the leading members
spoke up and said he would give $3.50
toward building a new church. "This
set the ball rolling, and in less than
fifteen minutes $3.50 was subscribed.
Next day 1850 more was added to the
list and the good work has continued
until $1,000 has been subscribed and
paid into the treasury. Every body.
non-members as well as members, have
given literally, making it possible to
build this church.
The size of the building is 26xd0 with
basement, and is built of cement block
with white panel face block for the
the corners, window sills and water
table.
1t was decided to dedicate this beau
tiful country church to the service of
God. for the reading of the Holy Scrip
lures. the preaching of the Word Of
God and the administration of the Holy
Sacraments. A program was arranged
and carried out Sunday, May 3lst.
Rev. John Hardcastle Of Plattevile
preached the dedication sermon, assist
cd by Rev. S. Cookson of Fayette cir
cult The subject of the sermon was.
"The Power of the Son of God" 1t
was very powerful sermon and had
wonderful effect for good on those who
were assembled to hear it.
After this service the offering was
taken and the people responded by Civ
ing $73 Then followed the dedication
service. conducted by Bro. Hardcastle.
assisted by the pastor and Bro George
Godfrey representing the trustees.
Bro. George Fox of Platteville pro-
nounced the Benediction witch closed
this service.
The Ladies Aid society Of Pleasant
View have raised the money to buy all
the furniture for the church except the
pews. AT 1890 o'clock the same ladies'
announced that dinner was ready in the
basement. IL goes without saying Sat
this part of the program was very
much enjoyed by all
AT 900 p. m. Rev. r. A, Barnes of
the Mineral Point Methodist Episcopal
church preached an appropriate and
splendid sermon, the subject being
"The Function of the Church
The members Of the Willow Springs
choir and the Mineral Point M. H. choir
kindly assisted in carrying out the pro-
gram by rendering appropriate vocal
selections.
The completion and dedication Of
Pleasant View church should be
soarge of joy and great good to every
family in the neighborhood. 1t is dedi-
Gated to the preaching Of the Gospel
of Jesus Christ which is the greatest
transforming and regenerating force
that touches human life.

HONOR THE DEAD.
Large Coneourse Participates in Mineral

A
l
| With ideal weather weather which
no country ever has os ever will excel,
weather which the mt a. fertile pen can
not do full justice in any attempt to
describe its perfectness Mineral Point
enjoyed an entirely successful observ-
an,e of Memorial Day, the S0th of
Moy, 1914. The blue dome Of heaven
wss never clearer or more soothing,
the sun never spread its rays with more
brightness and gentleness, and mother
earth with her new, fresh and tender
garb of green never appeared more en-
chanting. What fitting charm, what
fitting solace for such an occasion.
And our citizens: in the breast of
every one abounded sterling patriotism
ane an eagerness to do full duty in
honor of the sleeping. silent heroes of
wa and bow with reverence to the
valiant and light-hearted survivors.
According to program the morning
war devoted to the decorating of
graves in our four cemeteries. While
the living soldier with reverence and
gentle hand adorned the resting place
of dead comrades, other citizens in
large numbers assc mbled at these cities
of The dead bearing flower, fern and
wreath with which to garland the
''windowless palaces" of loved ores;
and when these acts of pathetic devo-
tion were completed the cemeteries
were comparable only to paradise of
flowers and love.
Immediately after the dinner hour
the children of our city gathered in
front of the postofiice by the hundreds
and were formed into line, each one
bearing flag. This being done war
veterans and members of the Relief
Corps took positions at the rear, and
WITH the local band at the head the
column marched to the city park. 1t
was pretty, patriotic stirring sight,
and the business houses and residences
being decorated with the stars and
stripes the whole was hid practically
'neath the national colors.
At the park, aside from the routine
duties of the Post. there was music by
the band, singing by the high school
Idoul He quartette, recitation of Lincoln =
Gei iysburg address by Master James
Spconer. and clear, forcible and in
strdctive address by Rev. r. A.
Barnes. The speaker faced the large
gathering without note of any kind,
but during the course of his remarks it
was shown that his heart and soul
were 80 full of love Tor freedom and
patriotism that his task was one of
comparative ease. In touching on the
heroism and sacrifice to gain independ-
ence and maintain the union he inter-
wove Christianity and forces Divine
with a spontaneous flow of eloquence
which proved both pleasing and inn
preasive to all hearers.
Benediction by Rev. w. J. G. Bond
and tie days program was completed.
