panding brow Of our erstwhile Burgo-
master some weeks ago, we knew that
Yuan Shi Ksi was slated for the
GROWING experience of his fruitful
life.
For many months that silken symbol
of state has reposed among the moth
balls in the personal closet Of the Rose
apartment. To be exact, it has indulg-
ed in camphorous slumber since the
municipal election, 1914.
Rumor and report had told for many
weeks of the latest venture of Milwau
KEGS distinguished citizen. But con-
firmation was wanting With the Wis
age Of the tabled sphinx, David S.
Rose continued to wall the kindly
pavements of Milwaukee in sombre
and majestic state.
And then Of sudden, the revelation
the sun burst; the chapeau grande Of
many victories flashed forth upon the
public gaze one bright December morn,
and Milwaukee heayed joyous sigh
because it knew that Dave" had
launched another argosy.
That JOY was reflected in the banquet
of the other night Plates sold as
readily as Twin Buttes stock did few
years ago. And if mayor Bading and
Charlie Toy were absent for some un-
accountable reason, were not Gov.
Phillip and Harry Bolens, these
shrewd and able business men, on hand,
as well as Moy Sing, Moy Hin, Yah
King, Coon Gong, and Moy Yam, those
eminent commercial luminaries from
the Windy City.
Therefore we add our blessing to
that of Sunny Jim" Slower: MAY
the Rose mission to China be crowned
with success" May it be so much
more successful than his mission to
Sanfrancisco, that no question will
ever arise about the legal residence

suggestion that appeared in a recent
Milwaukee paper that the Normal
School absorb the Mining Trade School
located IN this city. Whoever it was
certainly had other than success Of the
Mining Trade school and the lead and

Normal school is school to train
teachers. The Mining Trade School is
an Institution that gives instruction in
the actual work Of mining and mining

widely in their scope and have but lit

The rural school teachers now have
minimum wage $40 a month and if
they remain two years in the same
school they get state aid to the
amount of 81 month, the third year
81 and after that IS a month extra.
The additional salary of the supervis-
ing teacher is paid out of the seven
tenths mill tax levy. Another feature
is that cities and villages pay their
proportion of the mill tax and thus be-
come partners in the rural school
movement. The attractive wage scale,
together with the supervising teacher,
is intended to elevate the standard of
rural schools.

Every person, whether salesman,
farmer, cash girl, day laborer, engi-
neer, or whatever may be his work in
life, win find that his progress and sue

way he speaks. Very few employers
care to advance salesman or work
man to a place of very great authority

over the worst roads that could be

We were not unmindful of our respon-
sibilities to Cadillac purchasers
and to ourselves.
The most priceless asset of the Cadil-
lac Company today is it's good
name, the confidence repcsed in
it by the public.
Upon the maintenance of that conf
dence there is at stake an invest
ment in plants and equipment
which runs into the millions.
There is at stake an annual busi-
ness amounting to more than
thirty millions Of dollars.
And had the proof fallenshort of alb
sOlute conclusiveness, the Cadillac
Company would never have stalk
ed its reputation and its future,
because the Cadillac Company has
consistently built for permanency
above all else.
The experimental cars were not only
tested out" They were grossly
abused.
They were subjected to gruelling
such as not one owner i'm thous-
and ever imposes upon his car.
1t there were weak points, we wanted
to know them.
Yet, after more miles of travel than
the average car is driven in five
years, the condition of these ex-
perimental cars was a revelation,
even to u.s.
Crankshaft and connecting rod bear.
ings re quired no adjustment, nor
were csmshaft and bearings per-
ceptibly worn. Pistons and CYL
inders showed but infinitesimal
wear.
Everywhere, from radiator to rear
axle, was the evidence Of the re-.
suits of scientific design ;intelli-
gent selection Of materials, thro'
fabrication and Cadillac workman
ship.
Everywhere was the evidence that we
builded better than we ourselves
were aware.
You can learn, in your own way. that
the Eight Cylinder Cadillac neith-
er rides, nor drives like any other
moter car; that it does more of
the things which motorist wants
his car to do; that it performs in
ways that you had not thought
possible in any car
And, even having in mind the remark
able stability of its past product,
the Cadillac Company has every
assurance that its eight" will
excel all past achievements in con-
stancy and enduring service
