Shall We Toe In or Toe Out?

Like the child s toy house built with
blocks, the foot stands when balance
is maintained and becomes weak and
wabbly when single block is moved
sufficiently to disturb its balance. In
correct position, the foot carries the
weight of the body with a wide mar
gin of strength to spare. Change the
posture and the demand upon this re-
serve strength becomes often too great
to be permanently borne. The foot is
then under strain, it tires, becomes
painful and finally by yielding of the
ligaments, the shape of the foot is al
tered, its efficiency is impaired and oul
whole physical being feels the loss OF

Deer Shot now Number 35.

Deer hunting continues the principal
topic of the village. George Hebb Sc
cured Il large doe on the Plumb farm
Thursday. Merrill Sparks brought down
a small one which was feeding on Il.
G. Lincoln 5 land in the village. Robert
Fuller shot a large buck on Carr hill.
R. w. Blood, Martin Perry and Leon
Bruce have secured does this week
This brings the number shot since Mon
day morning up to So.
An unusually large buck has been
seen and chased by several hunters near
Ober hill and another to the east of the
village near Peaked mountain. Both
evidently have grown wise with years
and are toe wary to come out much in
the open.
A dead deer was found in the woods
Friday by Harold Haskell and reported
to W. NJ. Sparks. The deer, which was
q spike-horn buck, was found shot
through the neck so that it was well
bled. He was dressed by Haynes San

The Observation-Disclosures of Strategy

only in has fighting, but in the construe-
ton of his defensive works, his burrow.
If YOU win take careful note next sum

probably be surprised to ind III how
many cases the animal can secure an
outlook of considerable radius either
from the mouth of the hole or point
conveniently near it. 1t may be in the
open pasture when it is more likely to
be on slope than in a hollow, thus Sc
curing both outlook and better drain
age. 1t may be among rocks, but with
in easy distance of some peak which
commands prospect. 1t may be IN the
woods, in or under fallen log, but
the chuck can climb the log to look
about 1t may be among the scrub growth
by an old stone wall, and you Will
say, Ha, here is an exception! But
do not be too hasty. Some day, passing
the spot, YOU will see q shrewd face
and n fat body up on the wall. The
woodchuck digs in like modern

STATE ENGINEERS HERE.

Tuesday there arrived in the city two
engineers of the state Railroad Com
mission, Messrs. Miller and Larsen.
They were on survey Of the two local
municipal utilities and it was said came
In response TO representations made by
the mayor to the Commission OF the
action OF the city council IN proceeding
to enlarge the water plant only. The
mayors plan evidently was to ask the
commission to force consolidation of
the two utilities but the engineers are
reported as saying that the commission
will not assume jurisdiction TO force
any consolidation but will merely ad-
wise. The engineers conferred with
the mayor and city engineer and later
with some of the anti-Stolze alder
men at the Williams House and heard
all sides Of the matter.
They will doubtless make recommen-
dations soon.
Another new feature is the interest
displayed among business men Of the
city. There was meeting last night
and the matter discussed pro and con.
a majority Of those present seemed to
favor improving the water plant only
81 the present time.

The REsULT.-Everything has gone
democratic. Peck's majority will
reach 10000. The legislature is demo-
cratic on joint ballot by quite large
majority. Seven OF the nine congress
smen are democrats. And there is a
bare possibility that the entire delega-
tion will be democratic. Michigan
has gone democratic SO has Indiana
and Massachusetts and probably Min
nesota. Colorado is also claimed by the
democrats and seemingly with reason
The Farmers Alliance swept Kansas
and Ingalls, deiea, is regarded as quite
certain. 1t is probable that Pattson
democrat, is elected governor OF Penn
sylvania. North Dakota is in dis
pute and New Hampshire has probably
gone democratic. The Illinois leyisla-
ture will be democratic on joint ballot.
1t is almost clean sweep everywhere.
Manitowoc county gives democrat
ic majority Of about 2200 The gains
are in Newton, Centerviile, Rockland,
Manitowoc Rapids, the First, Third
and Fifth wards OF the city and the
town Of Manituwoc. Hoard lost many
republican votes and gained many dem
ocratic votes. In one ward 10 this city
there we're 40 republican votes cast
against the republican state ticket but
were in favor of the republican nomi-
nees for county Offices. This loss was
made good by democrats who also ev-
ened up matters on county Offices.

The mayors veto OF the resolution
requesting the finance committee to
insert 0,000 in the budget to be made
up this month, for the purpose of help
ing pay for the proposed Water works
improvements was read. 1t recites
that direct taxation is not necessary
because either the 5000 electric util-
ity surplus or bond issue is available.
Thorison, the initiator of the move
said the increased taxation is only on
paper and is mere formality. The
evident purpose is to have the money
formally provided for to head off at
tempts to stop the work for want of
financial provision. The anti-mayor
leaders needed eleven votes and figured
they had just that nun ber, G. Schroed-
er being absent. On the roll call BIZ
gel voted wrong. That would leave
but 10. Schuetze and Thorison il ter
rupted the roll call thinking Bigel aid
not understand but the mayor cal nly
ordered the roll call to proceed.
Thorison hurried over and explained
to Bigel and he switched his vote 10
''aye" before the result was announced
and thus saved the day. Scherer and

Over half the bids had no check.
These were not read on direction OF

They were read and all referred to the
utilities committee to report on at the
next meeting. Scherer voted "No"

from voting.

The SCHOOL LUNCH EON
tBy F. c. Chrlstiapsen.)

To the working, growing child every
meal is of Importance and the school
lunch which furnishes about one-third
of the daily food should be properly
prepared.
| Country school children usually have
plenty OF food in their dinner pals or
boxes but in very many cases it is not
the right kind, A few principles for
the proper selection of food for the
school lunch may be worth while.
l. Plenty of fruit and vegetables.
2. Young children should not have
much meat.
3, They should have plenty of milk
aud eggs.
A. Rich cake, fried eggs, thick pie
ces of meat, sour pickles, and pork
should not be given.
5. They should have regular time
for eating.
6. They should not have too much
OF only one kind of good.
Some variety of selection for the
lunch may be made.
FOR SANDWICH:
Wheat bread, brown bread, graham
bread.
Materials for filling sandwiches
meats sliced thin, chopped or ground
salad dressing, bacon.
Eggs soft boiled, mixed with salaC
dressing or sliced thin and seasoned
Cheese-both soft and firm cheeses
are good
Frut-jelles, preserves, raisin fill
ing, peanut butter.
OTHER THINGS THAT THE LUNCH
SHOULD CONTAIN:
Fruit-apples, oranges, figs, dates
bananas, raisins.
Vegetables-tomatoes, baked beans
celery: etc.
Desser.-Cookies, few pieces o.
home made candy some simple cake
u small piece OF pie.
The followidg is a suggestive exam
Pile Of what school lunch may con
tain;
Two slices OF bread and butter; one
cheese sandwich; fruit; piece OF cake
or two egg sandwiches; one peanut
butter sandwich; fruit; q small piece OF
custard or apple pie.
The following is poorly prepared
lunch:
Bread and butter; a thick slice OF
pork, one piece of m:nce pie: one ban
ana.
For drink nothing can be worse than
the usual coffee that has been standing
on the stove for a long time and then
poured into bottles for children's use
in school.
| The bes. drink Tor children is milk
or milk and water or cocoa properly
made.
Perhaps The milk ought to be steri.
ilized. This may be done by putting
the bottle OF milk in pan OF water
and letting it come to boil and then
letting it cool for 80 minutes on the
back OF the stove.
II with the foregoing there could be
had hot dish OF some kind almost an
ideal lunch would be given to children
The noon lunch ought to be- eaten in
the school room, the children seated a,
their desks. This ought not TO be a
stiff or formal affair. The teacher
with tact will see 70 it than this be an
enjoyable period OF the day.
1t has been positively determined by
experiments that when children were
inattentive, dull and behind in their
class work because Of poorly prepar.
ed lunch, that when Il properly balanc-
ed lunch was given they would in a
short while be equal to the best in the
class.

held next Monday, Nov. at the Turn.
