When you buy an automobile you buy
two kinds of service. First The service
given and guaranteed by the car itself.
Second The service given by the maker
and the dealer while the car is in use.
The service the Maxwell car gives is
known. $4,000 satisfied Maxwell owners
have given the car the rough and tumble acid
test of fully eighteen months service. The
Maxwell has shown that it is able to stand
up under the severest use. In cities, over
country roads, through mud and sand and up
the steepest mountains, the 1915 Maxwell
has made good for $4,000 owners.

Guard, he had won the highest re-
spect and esteem of all. Accepting
the medal Captain Tollefson thanked
Major Henry in a few words and said
that it was with deep regret that he
had asked to be placed on the reserve
list. He said that for some time his
business had been so pressing that
it had been impossible for him to give
the time necessary.
Captain Tollefson became a mem
Der Of Co. K soon after the Spanish
American war. He was too young to
enlist in the active campaign but soon
after the company returned from the
PHILIPPINES he joined the ranks and has
since been a member. From the
ranks of the private or common SOL
dier, he has risen to the highest Of
flee the members of his company could
give him. Succeeding Major A. J.
Osborn in command Of Co. K, he has
risen in the Regiment until now he
stands as one of the oldest captains
in years of service and was in line
for the rank of major commanding a
Bullation. Though every officer in
the regiment may grieve to see Capt.
Tollefson leave the active service, yet
his loss will be felt more keenely by
the men who have served under him
in his own company.
Lieut.. Turner said he could not say
anything publically regarding the in
spection, but he wanted to give a few
words of advice to the men regarding
the election Of a captain. He
said he was not here to urge the cleo,
ton of any one as he did not know
who was being considered, but he did
wish the men to choose one who
mould make the best captain for the
company and the guard. All per
sonal feelings must be put away in {
matter of this kind.
| In a private conversation after thu
inspection Lieut. Turner stated that
Co. K was the best %all-around drilled
company in the state. This is indeed
gratifying to both the officers ant
men.

Contest No. 2-$85 in Cash

The tree contest committee have de-
cided to enlarge somewhat the con-
ditions for tree growing in order to
set in motion the ideas of Pres. J.
H. Worst and others. This plan,
known as contest No. 2, to distinguish
from Contest No. 1, is to encourage
the idea of planting rows of trees
along the borders of farms.
The trees may be set along roads
on section lines or between farms on
quarter lines. The following rules
will govern:
l. There must be at least five con-
testants. d
2. A row of trees at least one-half
mile in length must be planted, the
distance between trees to be approx
mately 8 feet, or at the rate of $50
trees to the half mile.
3. The trees recommended for
planting are: Bull Pine, Norway or
Carolina Poplar and Cottonwood, pre-
ferred in the order named.
a. Ground should be prepared in
1915 for planting in 1916.
5. -Four prizes will be offered of
$40, $40, SIS, $40, for first, second,
third and fourth places.
6. Forty per cent of the prize
money will be awarded in the fall of
1916 and 60 per cent in the fall of
1917. The 1917 awards are to be
given to those whose trees have been
planted two years, Tor three years if
planting vas started in 1859 Trees
will be judged both in 1916 and 1917.
7. Should a row of bull pine trees
receive a premium, such a row shall
receive additional prize money to the
extent of rs per cent of the premiums
ordinarily awarded.
8. Persons entering Contest No. 1
ar not barred from entering Contest
No. 2, but no tree featuring in the
one contest shall count in the other.

Mr.. Hedges takes the place of o. f.

Mr.. Hedges carries with him a case
of photographs showing likenesses of
the numerous people booked to ap-

enthusiastic about the grogram and
declares that it has been materially
strengthened in many ways and that
the present lineup leaves nothing to

There will be five musical organi-
cations, one for each day. MI. Hedg-.
es says these have all been selected
with special reference to their fitness
for the places they are to fll. The

The Mendellsohin Sextette is made
up Of six talented and charming young
ladies who sing and play and do skits
and stunts galore. The Lawson Trio
specializes with flute, violin and voice
and renders programs of great vari-
ETY. and beauty. The Wilson Com
pany is a combination Of music and
makeup with a great abundance of
fine entertainment features.
The Avon Sketch Club is one of
those artistic organizations that takes
pride in it's ability to handle costumed
effects and combine play acting with
music, both instrumental and vocal, to
produce the highest results in must
cal entertainment for the masses.
The Boucher Opera Company will
give our people a touch of city life
by rendering in correct and splendid
fashion selections from popular opera
scenes. Donald Boucher himself
will appear with the company.
Congressman Lenroot is the rank
ing public man of Wisconsin next to
La Toilette. He is a seasoned law
maker and stands high at Washing
ton. The Chicago Tribune of Janu-
airy 31st published a leading article
urging Lenroot as a presidential
