As yet I have had no reply to re-

Please advise me whether or not
you will comply with my request and
supply me with copv of the rec
ord every investor must be shown
before he can decide to buy. Nat
urally investors will not buy these
bonds unless your preliminary work
has met the requirements of the law
upon the opinion of their own at
torney based on the records.

of capable man who has no inter-

I recommend for your appoint
ment such man in the person of

Everybody's Business. little publ
cation that is sent 70 this office for our
enlightenment if not for our edifica-
tion, says that only about ten per cent
of the children enrolled in the grades
or rural schools will enter high school
and that only a small per cent of those
in high school will enter college. If
this is true. then It is greatly to be de-
sired that the attendance at both high
and higher schools be increased. 1t
can only be increased by turning the
hearts and minds Of the bows and girls
of the state towards learning. 1t can
not be done by disparaging the public
school system, which seems to be the

THE MOTHERS PENSION
Avn

Notwithstanding the course cry of
"fool laws" raised throughout the state
against humanitarian legislation. the
mothers pt rsion law has been amended
and itq provisions extended. Elk Speaker
Hull. in The Black River Falls Journal,
thus explains the provisions of the new
law:
The mothers pension law, which heretofore
has been OPTIONAL with Wisconsin counties. has
been changed bv the recent Legislature so as TO
make it obligatory At the approaching annual
meeting of the county boards it will become
mandatory for appropriations to be made to
cover the expense Of such pensions. aside from
the small amount Of aid furnished from the
state treasury. Under the new law, aid to the
amount Of $40 per month for child and not to
exceed $40 per month to any family. will be
paid in cases where the mothers others have
children made denendent upon them by the
death or disability of the father. The funds
will he appOrtioned by the county Judge. under
the terms of the law. and he will also have
supervisory charge of their expenditure, so as
to insure the care and welfare of the children
and guard against misuse Of the funds by the
mothers or others who are to receive it. There
are numerous cases in this county as we'll in
others where the aid will be given under the
law and numerous mothers of families without
means of support will thus have their broods
cared for Some of the larger counties of the
state have had this pension system for several
years hut in many others the county, boards
refused to make the appropriations. 1t was
probably for that reason that the Legislature
changed the law to make such appropriations

SAFETY FIRST PAYS.


The United States Steel corporation
reports that during the seven years fol-
lowing 1906, as direct result of it's
safety work, it has saved 11,O74 men
from either being killed or seriously in
jured. incidentally, this report indi-
Gates that during three years, 1911, 1919
and 1918, net saving over and above
all expenditures for safety of nearly
So 100000 was made.
During the last four years, but prin-
cipally during the last two years, every
great railroad in the United States,
representing over 100000 miles out of
total Of 244, 900 miles of railroad, has
been organized for Safety First An
editorial in the Chicago Tribune of May
%, 1915, states that deaths to passengers
on railroads in the United States during
the year 1914 were reduced 43 per cent
as compared with 1912 Of the 443
roads reporting, 315 had clean record
for the year 1914 and did not Kill sim
gle passenger.
These facts are cited by G. M. Price,
assistant to the Wisconsin Industrial
Commission, in an article published in
recent issue of the 'Shop Safety Bull
letin, . "a monthly publication for the
purpose of promoting the general well
fare and safety Of shop employees is
sued by the A. O. Smith Company of
Milwaukee. Coming to cold facts,
closer home, which prove that Safety
First is worth while, Mr.. Price writes
"The records of the Industrial Com
mission at Madison show that the man
ufacturers of Wisconsin have reduced
the number of deaths and serious in
iuries in factories about one half, com
pairing 1914 with 1909. The records also
show that accidents caused by machines
or machine parts, that is accidents hap
pening at points which might be COW
cred with mechanical guards, have been
cut in two since 1912.
GA recent investigation reveals the
fact that out of 245 manufacturing con-
Germs, employing 200 or more employees
each, doing business in Wisconsin, all
bnt fifteen factories and eleven logging
concerns, are doing efficient safety work
and are getting results in reducing &C
cidents. The records of each of these
plants reveal the fact that Safety
First is not only the right and humane
thing to do, but it proves to be good
business proposition and pays big divi-
dends in dollars and CENTS
In commenting on the rapid growth
of the Safety First movement as an i'm
portant part of the larger campaign for
the conservation of human life, Mr..
Price says that practically every manu-
featuring concern of any size has incor-
porated Safety First into the manu-
featuring organization as an inside
proposition and an indispensable part of
efficient business.

Chief Jansen is more celebrated for &C
ton than for words. But when he talks
his talk is to the point. For instance,
he is quoted as observing:
Iwish to say that any administration care
not what its political belief may be-that de-
ponds for victory on maintaining dens of mi
putty, where the lives of young men and women,
the coming generation of our city, may be ruined
and disgraced, is not fit to exist.
Who that approves decision and can

alton from this vigorous and straight
