 HEALTHY CHILD
Boarding Mistress Abandons Babe of Three Months In
 Hallway of Mother

Apparently afraid or the infantile paralysis epidemic, Mrs. Ethel Deane, of Pole 113, Silver beach, left a three months old child that had been board led with her two weeks ago in the hall- way at ITO Osborn street yesteruay afternoon. The Osborne street ad- dress was the one that Mrs. Deane knew the mother of the child to be living at.
 The mother of the child, Mrs. Mary Perrio, of 83 Colorado avenue, was de- serted by her husband about three months before the child was born. A short while ago she advertised for a home where she could board the child in order that she could get work. Two weeks ago she placed the child with Mrs. Deane and paid $12.50 for the first months board.
 Late yesterday afternoon the ambu- lance was called to ITO Osborne street where the infant had been found in the hall way. It was taken to St. Vim cents hospital by Dr. c. c. Taylor, but the child was found to be healthy and robust.
 The police succeeded in locating Mrs Perrio, who formerly had lived at the Osborn street house and today she told her story to the officials of the chari- tSs department. She left the charities onice with the intention of looking for another home for>the child.

boys on the border were brought back
by Gen. Charles r. Boardman and
Adjt. Gen. Orlando Holway. General

Philip, while General Holway accom-
panied him to arrange certain details

General Green, q. S. A, in command
of the Twelfth division, sent word that
the Wisconsin brigade is one of the
finest on the border. They are earn
ing a brilliant name for the state of
Wisconsin by their good behavior, fine
appearance, and endurance through
the stiff program which has been
melted out to them.
General Holway reports that the
boys are all feeling fine and seem to be
getting good rations and fair treat
ment. Many of them are anxious to
learn when they will be ordered home
AS soon as President Wilson decides
to reduce the number of men on the

The total receipts to the state
school fund from fines and costs as
SesSed on violatOrs of the fish and
game laws total $3O,50S.65, according
to the figures of the conservation COM

Of this amount Eau Claire county
offenders contributed $3.50, Marinette
county S1,135, and Polk county, ST.
125. In Monroe and Green Lake coun-
ties. no offending nimrods were appre-
hended.
That the state is annually mulcted
out of thousands of dollars by JUS

port the receipt of fines and costs to
county treaSurers is the opinion of
Secretary Scheibel of the conservation
commission.
Il know of many cases N which the
justices of the peace hearing such

Il am of the opinion that if the state

that the state is a big loser through

specialized form of educational oppor-

training. If the housewife wishes TO
learn how to make over clothing to
cook, to purchase economically, or the
workman wishes to get special train
ing in mathematics, drawing, design

The efforts Of the board are so to
previously organized schools that

equal opportunity for training in his

by the state and cities to the more for
tunate and favored children who have
the educational avenue established
through the high school and college

The report of the secretary showed
that much is being accomplished in
the way Of extending the service,
adapting the instruction of the schools
more and more to the vocational in

together more closely instruction in
