coming one Of the best football cities

A FEW SUGGESTIONS
FOR BOOSTING WABENO

Don't be the man who put sit in city
Building good houses builds good
town.
Save little money and save lot of
worry.
Good roads lead not only to town,
but to money.
Be live one and the town will never
be a dead one.
nice front porch has prevented
many an old maid.
Why should the town muzzle dogs
and not knockers?
When someone plans to help the town
p an to help the plan.
The best plans man can have to the
future are house plans.
A good way to make the world bet
ter is to begin with the home town.
A town is like a perambulator: it
isn't much good unless it is pushed.
Don't spend all your time telling
whatyou could do if you had some time.
Be like ball player. The thing he
| is always working for is home.
Be one of the leaders of the town, if
you can; but, anyway, keep up.
If you think cow can't laugh for
joy, let somebody sell you good silo.
Don't be crouch. Everybody in this
town wishes you well, even the doctor.
Let's not be trying to stop something
all of the time. Let's start something.
A good town will do more to keep
the boys at home than good advice.
Opportunity knocks once at every
mans door; better be at home when
the lady calls.
The world owes every man living,
but the street corner is poor eollec-
tion agency.
Don't look for soft snaps; the hard
snaps are the ones that have the gin
ger in them.
Don't spend so much time talking
war that you haven't time left to talk
| business.
1t improves the soup to throw lit
tie pepper into it. Same way with a
town.
If you spend all that you earn, some
other fellow is banking your money.
| Many a young man goes away to
seek his fortune when Fortune is seek
ing for him at home.
Plaster your house and everybody
will follow your example. Lath and
the world laths with you.
You've got to be citizen in order to
vote; but you've got to do good deal
more than vote to be citizen.
| If you will consider the men in this
| town who are we'll off you will find
tnat most of them made their money
here.
The big things were not all done In
the big towns. The greatest poem in
the English language was written in .
country churchyard.
There is only one better man than
the man who gets behind and pushes,
in an effort to improve the town, and
that's she man who goes ahead and
pulls.

More Attention to Upper Wisconsin.

Never in the past has SO much at
tention been given to undeveloped
land resources of Wisconsin as now.
Farm papers that in the past have
been afraid of the subject of land for
agricultural extension have found
that they are safe IN calling attention
to .Ie undeveloped areas of upper
Wisconsin.
