FOR BETTER HIGHWAYS
JOINT COMMITTEES CAMPAIGN
FOR GRANELED ROAD HAS
INCEPTION TODAY.

AT a joint committee meeting held
last night in the rooms of the Com
merial club, the first gun doomed out
in the much mooted campaign for
better roads in Lake county. The
joint committee is composed of three
members of the Commercial club and
three members of the Merchants as

cial club are DR.. III. III. Frudenfeld,
chairman; j.. w. Walden and j. G.
Schultz, and the Merchants %associa-
ton members are Willis Soule, Earle
Kelley and Nick Bjornstad. 1t was
decided to at once get actively into
harness, and it was the sentiment of
the meeting that with a little cooper
alton on the part of Madison citizens,
next summer will see the first stretch
of graveled rural road in Lake
county.
AS now planned, the first unit Of
improved highway will start at the
creamery, southeast of the city, and
will run one-half mile east, one-haif
mile south, one mile east and three
quarters of a mile south. 1t Is be
lieved that no drawback will be eX-
p~erienced in inducing the Chautau-
qua association to gravel through

VIDAL SHOWS UP WELL
UNIVERSITY TEAM WINS SPIRIT
ED BASKET BALL CONTEST
FROM NORMAL TEAM.

Outweighted and outplayed, the
State Normal school basket ball team
last night lost to the University of
South Dakota five by a score Of 20
to II. Despite the fact, however,
that the visitors aggregate was more
than double that Of the locals, the
contest was a brillian one, from a
spectators point of view.
Interest was conferred in the work
of Eugene Vidal, the Madison boy
who is captaining the university
quintet. While coming up to all eN-
p|ectations as a speedy and heady ath.
lete. Vidal was not permitted to get
away with more than his share Of
the laurels. Evidently realizing that
the Madison boy would prove their
greatest stumbling block, the Normal
players, at times, seemed to center
their efforts in holding him down.
The average weight of the univer-
sity men is $50 pounds. which is
thought to be the heaviest average OF
any school basket ball team in the
state. The Normal school players
average is about AS pounds.
The Eermillion team plays tonight
against the State college team, al
Brookings, and two games are to be
played at Huron.
Tomorrow nights bill at the Nor
NAL school gymnasium will be a dou-

His Love of Berlin

The Kaiser as | Knew Him
By THE PRINCESS EULALIA OF SPAIN

AFTER hearing King Edward opinion
~ of his nephew Writes Princess
Eulalia of Spain, in her recent book,
@Court Life from Within "-Dodd, Mead
e Company, I was eager to meet the
Kaiser. was never more eager to meet
any sovereign. And there was none who
ever made such an impression on me.
One felt at once the vibration of strong
personality, an necessarily active mind,
a dynamic nervous energy, a Latin tenn
permanent intellectual and gay.
The quality that makes him most mis-
understood, both in Germany and abroad,
is his religiosity. He has an intimate sense
of the constant direction of a personal
God-how intimate no one will believe
who has not seen the expression of his face
when he is silently praying. Since he be-
lieves that God directs every incident of
the life of the world, he believes that he
has been divinely appointed to rule over
Germany, as every one else is divinely
appointed to the station he occupies and
the work he has to do. He rules, there
fore, under God, responsible only to God,
and going chiefly to prayer for direction.
The etiquette of Versailles in the time of
Louis XVI could hardly be more exas-
perating to modern woman than that of
Berlin in the twentieth century. This
daily discipline of relentless etiquette
has its effect on royalty; they can not
forget that they are royal, and there

This picture comes from Baltimore and
shows how men of hoary age can show
that Osler is bore, and do their stunt and
earn their wage. There may be ringbones
on their feet, there may be spavins on
their knees, but they can tread the long
white street with diligence and seeming
ease.
No man seems yearping for crutch,
but energy is in each face; they don't re-
semble dead ones much-they're more
like sprinters fit to race. There's solace
in this work of art for every gent who's
waxing gray who has been wounded to the
heart by things that chaps like Osler say.
Fall off the earth at forty years, and make
room for some gay young blade? No man
