A FAMILY REUNION

J. H. Gillies, of Glen Flora, and
daughter, Mrs. H. G. Johnson, OF
Chicago, were in the city Tuesday
morning, on their return from a
visit to the Wisconsin state fair and
a short visit at Chicago. While here
they purchased an Overland touring
car, which they will use for an ex-
tended tour in the south this winter.
Mr.. Gillies has two fine farms
near Glen Flora, having invested in
this property some fifteen years ago.
His son lives on one of the farms
and Mr.. GiEies is now living on the
other place, eighty acres of beauti-
fully-laying land on almost the south
end Of the Range Line" road, be-
tween Tony and Glen Flora.
The Gillies home has been the
scene of sort of family reunion
recently. Mrs. johnson, whose hus.
band is a member of the Compton
Johnson Co., of Chicago, publishers
of subscription books, is spending the
fall with her parents, while Mr. and
Mrs. Gillies' other daughter, Mrs.
w. H. Brown, of Flushing, N. Y,
and two children, are also here, hay
ing come to Wisconsin late in June
to escape the infantile paralysis
plague. Mrs. Browns husband, DR.
Wade Hampton Brown, is a leading
specialist in the Rockefeller institute
and chief assistant to DR.. Simon
Flexner. the famous authority on
what is known of infantile paraly-
sis, the disease that has claimed
thousands of children in the country's
metropolis. Dr. Brown came out tc
Wisconsin with his family to spend
his vacation, visiting first at Cheteh

Rusk County's 1916 Exposition Shculc
Be Best In History OF
County

Next week is the big gala and
holiday week for Rusk county, when
the wide-awake people from every
corner and hamlet of this progress
i've county will gather to witness
the exposition of the agricultural
possibilities of this section and be
entertained by an array of attrac-
tions never equalled in this vicinity.
The 1916 Rusk County Fair, grant
ed good weather, ought to eclipse all
it's predecessors in point of atten-
dance and in general excellence, al
though it is perhaps doubtful if the
vegetable exhibits will show up as
good as for some years when grow,
ing conditions were better.
The aeroplane flights are sure to
attract many, as never before in the
history of the county has an heav-
ier- than-air machine scared into the
clouds. One of the exciting features
will be a race between aeroplane
and motorcycle
Senator Robert M. LaFollette will
speak at the fair Friday, from 1890
until 200 p. M, speaking from a
platform in front of the grand
stand. Senator LaFollette is one
of the foremost speakers of the coun-
try and regardless of political be-
liefs, all fair-minded men will want
to hea1 him.

TRAINING SCHOOL NOTES );

An analysis of the enrolment
shows that every town and village
in the county is represented in the
Training School except the towns OF
Lawrence, Big Falls, Willard, Stubbs,
Wilson, Strickland and Rusk. These
towns will undoubtedly send students
in due time. Every town and every
village in the county ought to be
represented in this school. The
school is essentially a county school
and every town ought to take ad-
vantage of its opportunities for the
training of the teachers in the town.
Next week is The county fair and
many schools will close. Teachers,
parents and pupils are invited to vis-
it this school. Come and get ac-
quainted with the school, We can
help you more effectively if we know
you and you know us.
Now is the time for rural schools
to make their collection of weed
seeds for study during the winter.
In the summer the weeds themselves
can be gathered and prepared for
that chart of weeds you want for
your school and for exhibit at the
fair next year.
The Training School owns quite a
number of exhibits of manufacturing
processes. They are exceedingly val
liable in the teaching of geography.
The only cost is that of transporta-
ton. While you are at the fair,
come in and arrange for the use of
some of these exhibits. We also
have many pictures and bulletins at
your service.
The model school is we'll worth a
visit from the teachers. 1t is run
ming now with a full enrolment.
Teachers having grades 1, 2, and
5 will find much to interest them in
the school.
If teachers need help in conduct
ing parents meetings, the Training
School is ready to respond to the
call Do not be backward in calling
for such help as you may need.

The total enrolment in the city
schools has now passed the $50 mark.
| The junior high school has an ex-
hibit at the Northern wisconsin fair
at Chippewa Falls this week.
The local schools will be closed
Thursday and Friday afternoons TO
permit the school children and the
teachers to attend the fair.
Among the several textbook chang
es and adoptions this fall, there are
Coulter's Plant Life and Uses, Clark s
Elementary Science, Halleck's Amer
lean Literature, Brooks Composition
and Manly-Bailey's Lessons in En-
glish and Beacon Primer. A new
speller is also being considered.
In the number of cities and villages
having kindergartens, wisconsin
leads the entire Union with 143,
Michigan is second with 1913, and
New York is third with go. In the
number of kindergartens, New York
leads, Ohio is second and Wisconsin
| is third. In the percentage of total
number of children 4-6 years Of age
attending kindergarten in 1914, New
Jersey is first, Wisconsin is second,
District of Columbia is third, Conn
ecticut is fourth and New York is
fifth These figures surely speak
we'll for the Badger state.
The six weeks plan Of issuing re-
ports which was used last year will
again be followed this year The
exemption system used in the high
school last year will be widened in
scope and include the grades as
well. The main object in this sys-
tenn is to promote daily class work.
Anything that tends to develop the
daily recitation work and spirit ought
always to be encouraged. The i'm
portance of written examinations in
the city schools O f the country is
steadily decreasing, and while there
lis still much of great value in the
to the oral. During the present year
in the high school and upper grades,
all class work will count two-thirds,
and tests and examinations one-third.
Good department will be one of the
requisites for exemptions,
The work of recognizing and re-
cataloguing the textbook libraries of
the three buildings is being under
taken by Miss Hitchcock. 1t is a
tremendous task, but when the same
is completed, it will be work well
done. 1t is planned to keep the
same on a systematic basis. There
are several adults in the city who
have not as yet returned the books
borrowed for the summer. 1t is
hoped that they will attend to this
important matter shortly Or ask for
a renewal of the same.
The teachers of the city schools
and county training school were very
pleasantly entertained at a recep-
ton given in their honor by the
members of the Methodist Church
last Friday evening. On Saturday
evening the new teachers were en-
tertained at the high school gymna-
SUM by the teachers who have
taught in Ladysmith for year or
more.

Famous Temple and Statue.

Since about the year 752 the grand
ceremony Of kaigen, or opening the
spiritual eye of the statue" has been
celebrated but five times at the temple
commonly known as the Daibutsu of
Nara, at Tokyo. The original statue
has suffered grievously since 1872
Once, in S55, the head dropped Off
Since then it has suffered twice from
fire, and upon each occasion the head
was destroyed. The statue in it's sit
ting posture measures fifty three and a
half feet, the length Of the face being
sixteen feet. The two BOdhiSattvas
fanking the Daibutsu are as high as
thirty feet. The temple is lSS feet in
frontage and 1G6 feet in depth and is
known as the largest wooden building
in Japan, though it is much smaller
than the original, built i,100 years ago
1t was not built to protect the statue
from being exposed to the weather,
but the statue was made to enshrine
rs the chief figure Of the temple

What the "Von" Means.

The German title Of "von" as a prefix
before surname was in feudal times
the privilege of the landed barons, who
thus designated, as in other countries
with like pretiXes, their ownership Of
lands. In modern times, however, the
prefix won may be granted as a title
Of nobility by the German emperor or
the kings of the various Kingdoms OF
the empire. 1t does not carry any
privileges or emoluments with it. 1t
is recorded in the heraldry Office in
Berlin If granted by the emperor as
kaiser or as king Of PRUSSIA, in Munich
II granted by the king of Bavaria,
Leipzig If conferred by the king OF
Saxony, etc. The recipient is not given
q diploma with It. 1t may be, like the
English title of baronet, personal or
hereditary-that is, it may be grant
ed to a man for his lifetime only or
may descend to his sons. 1t cannot be
assumed by any one, but may be earn
ed by any deserving German subject
and conferred as a reward for service
or eminence.-San Francisco Chronicle.
