TWO TRAINING
COMPANIES START
Business Men and Cadets Glass to
Be Organized for Military
Training.

In the near future a training COM
pany will be started by Company c
for business men too old for first en-
listment--from 35 years upwards. 1t
is the hope of the officers to secure
at least $50 men who will be inter
ested in military tactics enough to
take the simple training taught
Physical as we'll as military instruc-
ton will be given. Should COM
pany of SO men be secured at once,
training would start right away.
A cadet company is also planned
for spring and summer training,
boys from Is to Is years to be in
Guided in this. The physical instruc-
ton would be of the greatest benefit
to the boys, besides the added value
of military instruction for them.
The day when military instruc-
ton is included in the high school
curriculum is hoped for by those
who believe that as long as earth
lasts wars will come and go, and
that all men, young and old, should
know how to help in the defense OF
their country.
Patriotism is just as strong in the
breast of every young boy of high
school age as it was during the war
of the Revolution and the Civil war
and unless smothered by the indif-
ference Of parents, who would rath-
er let some other fathers and moth
er's son do it, may be the most valu-
able asset this country has some day.
When that day comes, a rifle will
not be an unfamiliar thing and a
command will be obeyed instantly
by those boys who have had the ad-
vantage of several years of military
training. Young men desiring to
enlist with the company, or with
the cadets, or older men who wish
to join the ranks Of the training
class, may call at the arrnory any
evening in the week, excepting Sat
urday and Sunday, between the
hours Of 1880 and 10 O'clock, and en-
list.

P. J. Brandrup for Supervisor,

Elsewhere in today's Freeman
Tribune p. j. Brandrup tells the
voters that he is candidate for
member of the board OF supervisors
from this district. Mr.. Brandrup
has been resident of Webster City
since childhood, coming here with
his parents about forty-three years
ago. He was county treasurer two
terms and the Freeman-Tribune re-
calls that Wilkinson & Son, state ex-
aminers, made the statement after
examining the records in the treas
urer's Office during Mr.. Brandrup's
incumbeney that the records were in
the best condition of any they had
examined in the state. They didn't
say zone OF the BEST they said the
best. That Mr.. Brandrup made a
good official is universally conceded.
He is man of good business quail
fications, is a large land owner in
the county and was among the frst
to petition the board for a drainage
district. 1t may therefore be assum-
ed that he is in favor of drainage.
Being progressive citizen he is al
SO in favor of good roads and is
heartily in favor of the county doing
its share OF this work. He will be
a strong candidate at the primaries
and there can be no doubt OF his
election in the event Of his nomina-
ton.

Robins, Of Spring.

Robins are here in full force these
days; even in the snow of Wednes-
day morning they were singing loud
ly and hopping about as blithely as
If balmy zephyrs and spring sun
shine had come to stay. The robin
is our first song bird OF spring and
its hopeful, bright carolling is the
sweetest spring song. The Indians
loved the robin quite as much as we,
and called him "Opeechee." The
legend left us by the Indians was
some thing like this: AS soon as an
Indian boy of a certain tribe was old
enough to put aside toys and play
things, he was sent alone to lodge
in forest to fast for twelve days.
and become hardy enough to take
his place among the warriors. A
certain chiefs son of the tribe was
unusually large, strong and quick
for his years, and his over-proud
father wished to give his cherished
son the hardening experience that
he might enter the ranks of the war
riors earlier, than had ever been done
before. The little fellow cried when
he learned of his fathers intentions
and begged to be allowed to remain
with his mother while longer, but
the father was obdurate. The child
was taken to the lodge in the forest
and left without food. Each day the
old chief visited his son and the
eleventh day found him so weakened
from his long fast that he was little
more than shadow and could only
lie on his pallet inside the lodge
door. The twelfth day as the chief
neared the lodge through the open
door, he could see his son painting
himself gayly with red as if in hon
or of great occasion. As he drew
nearer the door a burst of song fell
on his ears and when he drew aside
the half-hangings at the lodge door,
his son had vanished, but on the
ridge pole of the lodge sat robin
whose song was, "Be more gentle, be
more loving"
The robin is messenger OF good
cheer to all of us. You may hear him
any morning and are likely to take
him by surprise upon some lawn as
you turn a corner. If you do he will
look up at you curiously, poised for
a fight as he studies you; and if you
stand still and watch he will hop
away from you to what he thinks is
a safer distance and watch you.
Our robin is not robin at all, but
a thrush. The real robin redbreast
of England is not known in this
He is a, smaller bird than
our robin and his breast is a bright
er red. The pilgrim fathers, who
came from England, called this bird
a robin and the name has chung ev-
err since and probably always will.

shows how the public sometimes
changes it's mind. 4-.
