Wisdom.

Wisdom Is not the same with under
standing, talents, capacity, ability, sa-
gacity, sense or prudence; not the
same with any one of these; neither
will all these together make it up. It
is that exercise of the reason into
which the heart enters; a structure OF
the understanding rising out of the
moral and spiritual nature. 1t is for
this cause that high order of wisdom
that is, a highly intellectual wisdom
is still more rare than high order
of genius When they reach the very
highest order they are one; for each
includes the other, and intellectual
greatness is matched with moral
strength.-Sir Henry Taylor.

Asia's Comanehes.

Unlike the maritime peoples Of the
west of Europe, the Slavs had no
easement from the coloniZing of the
new world. When the era of ma
chinery dawned, they were not able,
as were the English, the French and
and the Germans, to get into the sun
shine by catering to the worlds de-
mand for cheap manufactured goods.
Moreover, they have had to bear the
brunt of oriental onslaught. The South
Slavs, or Serbs, Bulgaria, HerZego-
yina and Macedonia fell under those
Comanches of Asia, the Turks.

Be Loyal to County.

The people of Jefferson county
should be loyal to their own county
and furnish the necessary exhibits for
the county fair. The officers of the
Fair Association are doing everything
they can to make the fair better this
year than ever befre, and the farm
ers should assist by preparing some
thing for exhibition and then take the
whole family and attend the fair. 1t
is a Jefferson county fair and the peo-
pie of the whole county should take
an interest in making it the best
county fair in the state. Remember
the date, August 81, September 1928.

Making Better Highways.

Anyone making an extensive drive
i'll any portion of Wisconsin at this
time will continually come to places
where fine roads are being made. He
will note great amount of macadam
and will be pleased to see that as a
rule this macadam is being oiled as
soon as completed. In the past hun
dreds OF miles of fine macadam roads
have been allowed to go to the bad
because of not being oiled. 1t seems
that the state has awakened to the
situation and that hereafter all maca-
dam will be oiled and made to last a
lifetime in fine condition.

ORE SHIPMENTS

Forty cars Of ore totaled the ship
ments from Lordsburg during De-
cember being tiity-seven cars less
than the proceeding month. The
cause of this depreciation was due to
the poor conditions OF the mine roads
whereby hauling was an impossibility.
1t goes to show the great need Of a
framway from the railroad to The
Virginia mining district. The aver
aye shipments for the year we're l50
cars per month, and this because OF
