WISCONSIN GOOD
ENOUGH FOR HIM

August Kluender, who was born in
Germany, and who came to Wisconsin
in 1897, later moving to Ada, Mime
sofa, four years ago, gave this office
the following poem, since his return
to Wisconsin. Last fall he purchased
the Joe Stadler farm and moved his
family here, and here he thinks he
will remain the rest of his days, as
Wisconsin is good enough for him.
He says the following expresses his
sentiments:
Wisconsin Is Good Enough for Me
They talk of California,
They say the climates grand.
They sing of Old New Hampshire,
Also of Dixie Lands
They sing of Dear Old Georgia,
And Sunny Tennessee.
I'll sing Of Old wisconsin:
It's good enough for me.
In Nebraska there's a cyclone;
In Kansas there's a flood;
While down in Old Missouri
They wade knee-deep in mud.
In Texas there's the terror of
Submersion by the sea.
In Wisconsin we have neither,
It's good enough for me.
The east coast has it's hurricanes,
The west coast has it's fogs,
The north is full of snow and ice,
The south is full Of boys.
I've travelled Uncle Sans domain,
And some across the sea;
But life in old Wisconsin,
It's good enough for me.
Wisconsin where the farmers crop
Was never known to fail,
When fruits all miss in other states
We've plenty here for sale.
But for living in Wisconsin
My reasons first are three:
There's sunshine, health and happi-
ness,
It's good enough for me.

THE REWARD OF WORK

! Work is good for u.s. The most
idle are the most unhappy and Of the
least importance in the world. There
are those who plume themselves on
not being obliged to labor, who think
that this stamps them as superior to
those who must work. They are
greatly mistaken. The man who works
for his days wages and carries his
dinner pail is of far more importance
than any idler. The man who wears
blue yeans, whose hands show ia
miliar acquaintance with toll, need
not look with envy on the idle rich,
who walks as if his feet scorned the
street, or leans back in his carriage.
The appearance of ease is greater
than the reality, for idleness is not
conducive to happiness. No matter

spend all his time in idleness. There
are plenty of ways in which he may
employ portion of his time in things
Of use to the community. One whose
mind is not occupied by useful
thoughts is likely to be filled with dis
content, envy, jealousy avarice and
other evil qualities that bring unhap-
piness in their train. The idle man
is not living up to the best that he
might be. Then work. Keep your
mind and your hands busy in useful
employment. Work helps one forget
troubles, and pain. Work gives one
better health Of body and mind. Hon
or your work and it will honor you

MUZZLING THE PRESS

One Of the most high-handed pieces
of legislation ever contemplated is a
clause in the pending post office APP
preparation bill comforting upon the
postmaster general the power to deny
mail transportation to any magazine,
or other periodical and require it to
be shipped as freight. The clause
gives the postmaster general unlim-
tied discretionary power Of selection
and any publication may come under
the ban of his displeasure without
further recourse. The enactment of
such a clause would enable the post
master general to hamper the circu-
lation of periodicals inimical to the
campaign prospects of the present ad-
ministration. 'The Democratic par
ty offers itself to the country as an
overthrow and extirpation of corrup-
tion fraud, and machine rule in Amer
lean politics can be effected" says the
Baltimore platform. Publicity is the
greatest agency for accomplishing
this The greatest medium of pub
licity possessed by the American peo-
pie is the mail service. Will con-
gress dare pass this legislation? Will
the president dare sign such a bill?

THE CALL TO THE BORDER

For a long time the call has been
expected, but when it was really fash
ed over the wires Sunday that all the
state militia had been ordered to
mobilize, it came as a shock. But
comparatively few knew Of the order
until Monday, and as the news spread
in Baraboo there was more than one
anxious face, for was not our city to
say goodbye to a goodly number of
it's young manhood? When the word
came yesterday afternoon that the
boys were to leave last evening there
were family gatherings here and there,
many tear-stained face, and many a
mothers heartache.
AS we read the list of the members
Of Company A we come across the
names of several that are familiar:
T. H. Tudor, lieutenant OF the com
pany (Harry, as he is better known
genial aud courteous, an efficient clerk
in the J. S. Griggs clothing store;
Frank Dwyer, for years faithful en-
ployee at the News office; John
Sprecher, a recent graduate of the
high school, one of the mainstays of
last seasons championship basketball
team, and fine fellow; and so on
down the list each reader finds the
name Of one or more acquaintance.
friend or relative who has answered
the presidents call.
Secretary of War Baker states that
the militia will be sent to Mexico to
guard the border. The Mexican Dor
der is a long geographic line. 1t is
approximately as long as from ST.
Paul to New Orleans, says the State
Journal Unless that line is fully
guarded it is not guarded at all. Hence
the call. 1t is right call, just call
And the boys were ready. This is the
hour when real loyalty to the flag is
put to the test. This is the hour when
every true American will stand by the
flag and the president in the interests
Of American peace. The call to mobil-
ize is not in the interests Of war, but
in the interests of peace.

THE NEWEST REr1EDV
FOR
Backache, rheumatism and DrOpsy.

Kidney, Bladder and Uric Acid troubles
bring misery to many. When the kidneys
are weak or diseased, these natural filters
do not cleanse the blood sufficiently, and
the pOisOns are carried to all parts of the
body. There follow depression, aches
and pains, heaviness, droWslness, lrrlta-
bility, headaches, chilIineSS and rheu-
matism. In some people there are sharp
pains in the back and loins, distressing
bladder disorders and sometimes Obstin-
ate drOpSy. The uric acid sometimes
forms into gravel or kidney stones. When
the uric acid affects the muscles and
joints, it causes lumbagO, rheumatism,
govt or sciatica. This is the time 30 try

WHAT PART DID AIR CRAFT
PLAY IN SEA FIGHT?

New significance is given by the
battle off the Jutland coast to the I'M
successful aerial raid made by the
British some months ago upon the
Zeppelin base in Schleswig, near the
Danish frontier, says the Springfield
Republican. At the time many as
sumed that the purpose was to check
Zeppelin raids on the British coast,
but it seemed on the whole more
reasonable to surmise that this Yep
pelin base, because of its proximity
both to Scotland and to the entrance
to the Baltic, was annoying to the
British admiralty. Just how great a
part in the recent sea fight was played
by the aircraft is still uncertain, but
Of course their value is not to be
measured by their share, if any, in
the battle itself. If the information
they collected was of service in help
ing the German admirals to effect the
right disposition of their ships to
meet the demonstration of the British
fleet their value was sufficiently
shown. But perhaps the German ad-
miralty does not care to reveal just
how much service the Zeppelins rem
,dered.

Shall it be Goodbye, Mr.. Horse %
A preliminary report just issued by
the Federal Census Bureau shows that
the number of carriages and wagons
manufactured in 1914 was 397, 569 less
than in 1909, a decrease of Psi per
cent. Likewise the value of the total
number of these classes of vehicles
decreased $21,754,OO2, or 23.1 per

obsolete even faster than horse-drawn
vehicles on wheels. The report shows
