Woman Who Spends
The majority of people spend two
thirds of their income in an effort to
secure food, shelter and clothing. If
young people are taught how to buy
pure food, how to obtain shelter with
air and sunlight as we'll, how to
select clothing which is both durable
and fitting aren't they being taught
to every good purposes?
1t is not all of life to live, any
more than it is sufficient to be good.
We must live for something, be good
for something. This ideal can be
reached only by learning how,
Systematically, scientifically and
thoroughly.
Unless all signs fail the resources
of this country are to be called upon
as never before in our history.
Our young people must be trained

Every girl should learn values with
reference to money, time, energy,

0bituary---John C. ReCh

John G. Rech was born in Bavaria,
Germany, July 9th, 1921. He came
to America in 1888 landing at Balti-
more; from there he drifted to the
lead mines of Galena and southwest
ern Wisconsin. Being a young man
full of life and ambition, he soon
thereafter joined a company forming
in Cincinnati, ordered to support
Gen. Taylor in the Mexican war on
the Rio Grande four months before
the actual declaration of war by con-
gress, but the company to which he
belonged was assigned to Gen. But
ler's brigade, and they took part in
the battle of Monterey and alsu in
the battle OF Buena Vista. Mr..
Rech's company was called into
service for twelve months only at the
expiration of that time he enlisted in
another regiment, which was attach
ed to the command of Gen. Scott,
and took part in the advance on the
city of Mexico, but peace was de-
clared while his regiment was yet
forty five miles from the conquered
Capital. The war ended, Mr.. Rech
returned again to Grant County,
Wis, settling near Potosi. For
many years he worked in the mines
and smelling works near Potosi and
Platteville. Sept. 9th, 1849, Mr..
Rech was married to Miss Mary
Touluce and about this time he for a
short time lived near Greenwood,
Clark County, Wis, when that
county was a vast wilderness, and
there was great activity in the
numbering business there. Black
river was great outlet for those
huge pine logs of that region. Later
on he with his family lived awhile
at the Hurricane and from there
moved onto a 4O-acre tract which
l think he bought from the late
Richard Grumpy. This 40 laid be-
tween Pigeon creek and Grant river
in the town of Beetowu. Later on
his sons Henry and John bought tracts
of land adjoining and for a number of
years they all lived there near to-
gether later on they all sold out, his
son Henry buying the Sam Oates
farm in the town of Lancaster and
John becoming the owner of the Petty
farm near Cassville. He with the
parents moved thereon and here the
good mother passed away April 29th,
1907. Since then the father had
made his home mostly with his son
John, but while he could get around
he delighted to visit at his other
children's homes, but of late years
the saddest part of all came upon
him when he lost his sight, became
totally blind and also deaf, but with
christian fortitude he bore all those
Affections and on Jan. 18th, 1915,
passed peacefully away to the great
beyond from which none return.
He leaves to mourn his passing
away four children, two sons, and
two daughters Henry, of Lancaster;
John, near Cassville; Margaret,
Mrs. Golmar, of Darlington, and
Rebecca, Mrs. Louis Schneider, near
Cassville. There are 26 grand child

Milan, July 4-Agitation for the par

against the Dardanelles is daily grow

heavily cut by the censor, "Popolo
DTtalia" protests against the idea that
the world war can be fought in water

must throw her lot with the Allies, so
that on the day Of victory the green,

for the hesitation Of the government is
the condition Of the Tripoli colony.

S210 for each shell. Most Of these
small factories are making projectlles
OF various descriptions for the famous
cannon.
In an out of the way and relatively
unimportant establishment that your
correspondent visited and which had
formerly been a bicycle factory, con-
tanning 100 turning lathes and ten
drills, the daily output is about fifty
shells Others produce thousands a
day.
One Of the most astounding features
Of the war is the rapidity with which
the ordinary French workman employed
in these small establishments becomes
a highly skilled artisan. The pride
and esprit de corps of these men,
women and girls is not surpassed by
the soldiers in the trenches and on the
fighting lines.
Senator Humbert states that one OF
the foremost chiefs of the French
army, in a letter that reached him to-
day, wrote:
"Let the truth be known 20 all. Time
is in our favor Hold out, make am
munition, economic men so that we
shall have strength and vital force
when others may become exhausted
Instead Of using ourselves up fol- moth

DANGER IS GRAVE
Daily Mail" Declares 1t Has

fBv cane 10 me tribune J

London, July 5.-"The Daily Mail"
says editorially:
1.-The Daily Mall warns the public
that the situation is not even so salts
factory as il was a few months ago.
When Lloyd George said, I think the
situation is too grave, much too grave,
very much too grave and Lord Curzon
stated, The situation is one Of grave
anxiety, and IL is not unfair TO speak
Of this country being in grave peril,
they were gently limiting at facts not
known to one person in a thousand
not known TO a majority OF the mem
bers Of the House of Lords or House of
Commons.
THE story Of the Dsrdanelles eI-
petition, which is only one phase OF
this grave situation, is completely mis-
understood, and its importance under
estimated. Members of Parliament
should press for information as 70 GER
tain circumstances in connection with
this vast operation. The public ought
to know; they should not be further
chloroformed.
Referring TO Certain preparations
against INVASION" which are being car
ried out, the Mail" asks if these
preparations are sufficient, and says:
1--WE wonder because now that the
war is in its twelfth month we find
that, according to statements made in
the House of Commons, all sorts of
things are very insufficient. The peo-
pie who muddled the equipment of the
men who are marching about without
weapons may be mudding the invasion
