selection Of Miss Jennie Robinson
to that post she has filled so long
and so very acceptably for these
many years. The Savior once
said "A prophet is not without

experience has not proven this to
be true in her case because she

the rule.

in Woodstock, if the people of
Woodstock really appreciate Miss

CUDkRY REVELATION
TO BADGER VOTERS

John Cudahy, Democratic candidate
for lieutenant governor, since he en-
tered the campaign a few weeks ago,
has shown surprising strength not
only among the Democratic voters OF
the state, but among the adherents OF
other parties. In the various counties
where he has delivered u number Of
addresses, he has been warmly re-
ceiyed, and in the many places where
there is a strong leaning towards Will
son and the entire Democratic ticket,
Cudahy has been given enthusiastic
receptions.
The callber Of this comparatively
young man was not known, to GER
tain extent. even to his admirers, as
he had always positively refused to
become identified in any way with
politics. Even after he was nominated
FOR lieutenant governor, his staunchest
friends, while realizing his sterling
worth, intellectual ability and the
wonderful record that he has made IN
the legal profession, within short
time, together with the reputation he
has for sound judgment in every
thing with which he had 10 do, never
dreamed that he would prove such a
tower OF strength by the clearness and
the force of his arguments on both
national and state issues. His
knowledge Of the entire political sit
uation has amazed all those who have
heard him discuss the important ques-
tons now before the voters of the
country, and his eloquence and fear
lessness in dilating on these issues
have won him many admirers and ad-
herents even from the parties not in
sympathy, to a certain extent, with
the Democratic administration.

A ONE MAN
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.

Never since the creation of the
world, has one spirit or person been
able to either create or build anything
alone. The univeral man or woman
has not been born.
We have heard OF "sclf made man. "
But Just the same we are persuaded
that the man does not live who has
made himself either wealthy or healthy
or wise without outside assistance.
We must not ignore our parents to-,
begin with,
But it would seem that many Cham
bers of Commerce or organization OF
a similar character are practically one
man affairs. Get George do it, is the
saying that has been handed down to
us since The days when George NJ.
Pullman invented the sleeping car
and his sable porters have been given
his name for want OF knowledge Of a
better one, on the part OF the travelling
public. "Let the secretary do it, has
become almost as popular among those
who compose the make up OF the or.
binary Chamber of Commerce.
Now, be it understood, the secretary
is perfectly willing TO do it as far as in
him lies. But there are something's he
cannot do, and nearly everything he
does would be done better il he could
depend on the advice and helpfulness
Of those who look TO him 20 direct the
Affairs Of a community SO far as the
commercial organization has anything
to do with such affairs. The one
Man Chamber of Commerce may be a
success, but it would be a greater one,
and accomplish more, If the people
could interpret the meaning and truth
Of the statement "Many can help one,
where the one cannot always help
many, and it is extremely doubtful if
the one man organization can ever be
termed truthfuIIy a success. For sue.
cess i, accomplishing the best results
ana these can never be gained without
co operation,

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE NOTES.

The following clipping from the
Rotariau Magazine very pointedly IL
Illustrates the duty every citizen owes
to the local Chamber OF Commerce
every citizen of every community
owes his hearty support to his COM
mercal organization. Because the
old commercial orga lization may have
gone to seed or because one set OF OIL
GERS or directors may have made mis-
| takes is ne excuse for standing aloof,
The mistakes Of the past should be
stepping stones of future success.
The man who will not lend his brains
his energy and some of his money to
the efforts of his fellow citizens in
directing the constructive forces OF his
community a long the course that is
best for the city as whole is not
useful citizen. No man has the right
10 refuse his support to a community
movement any more than the com
munity has right to refuse its pro-
lection TO any man. Inc man VINO az
serbs the benefits OF the commercial
organization 5 efforts without contrib
uting thereto is a community parasite.
A commercial organization should,
in reality as well as in theory, be the
hub around which revolve the civic
activities of the community. 1t is too
frequently thought the attitude of the
people in any given community re-
lects the efficiency of the commercial
organization. That is not true, just
the reverse is the case. The CONNER
cial organization reflects the aggres.
siveness Of the people in the communi'

He has gone forth uIheralded and
unsung, without any buster unattend-
ed by brass bands; seeking no meth
DDS of obtaining publicity other than
by the force OF his eloquence and
dominant personality, but hitting
straight from the shoulder on every
issue that is before the American
public at the present time.
In an address at Wausau, Cudahy
said: "rhe German-American press
and the professional pro-German agi-
tator, threaten the welfare Of Amer
lea, and particularly the standing of
the American citizen of German
descent
This is all shamefully unfair and
unjust to the Gcrman-AmeriCan. Too
often has the patriotism of the Ger
man-American towards his adopted
country been tested to need any de-
Tense or any apology. He has been
tried upon many a hard-fought ftld
during the Civil war, the Spanish
American war, and now is to be found
serving his country upon the Mexican
border IT Is CALTMNY TO
BREATHE THAT THE GERMAN
AMERICAN IS DISLOYAL.
Germany has acceeded to the just
demands of President Wilson and has
ACKNOWLEDGED that such demands
were proper under the law of nations.
Would the German Emperor have
yielded to the demands Of America If
be believed that Wilson was wrong?
Answer that question, you German
American voters Kaiser Wilhelm I'd.
mitted, himself, that he was wrong,
but the German-Amcrican alliance and
the German press viii not admit that
he is wrong"
Every fair-mindcd man whether he
is a German-Amorican or from any
other foreign land" said Cudahy in
another address, Knows deep down in
his heart that President Wilson could
not have adopted any other policy to-
wards the warning nations Of Europe
without violating neutrality, than the
one he pursued Put yourself in the
Presidents chair during this terrible
ordeal that he has gone through since
this war began that he has gone
through, practically unaided and IN
assisted try TO picture the situation
as it presented itself-try to r alize
that there were thousands OF synpa
thizers for Germany and thousands
sympathi2inE with Great Britain
THEN WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE
DONE, IN EVERY CASE THAT Will
SON HAS NOT DONE?"
In another address Cudahy was
given an ovation when he declared
that there is no better citizen In the
United States today than the GermEn
American and that the German Is Tho
FIRST to demand citizenship papers IN
this country,
ut proves without fear of success
ful contradiction said Cudahy, "ta'
the German realizes the opportunities
in this country for himself and NE
family, Were he not of the belief thai
every man IL equal and he's the same
advantages az the native American
born. to become happy contented ana
prosperous In this Great and glorious
republic, he never would have tlkei
rat citizenship papers"
