which is badly needed, and use the bal
ance of the space for a construction
shop.
The work on the structure will be
started soon, and has been delayed
owing to the sickness of one of the
members of the firm, Richard Biefeld.
The cost of the building will be in
the neighborhood of $4,000, and the
new plant which will be run in con-
nection with the present plants on the
same street, will give employment to
a number of skilled workmen who
command good wages as we'll as fur
nishing employment to common labor.
The building of a foundry will fill a
long felt want in Watertown as there
is growing demand for castings. The
Biefeld firm alone uses many tons
during the year and with the advent Of
the Madison clutch concern, work of
this character will be demanded. The
Biefeld firm is showing a commendable
spirit, as they have added to their CEN
trail plant from time to time as occa-
sion demanded.

GOVERNOR PROCLAIMS
WISCONSIN DAY

Governor Philip has issued the fol-
lowing proclamation:
1t is especially fitting that we
should honor by words and deeds the
| memory of the men who made possi-
BILE the state of Wisconsin, and those
who have played an important part in
her development
On her sixty-eighth birthday we are
even prouder than ever of her achieve
ments, noting the continued increase
of her resources, and her high type of
citizenship.
L feel it not only timely but my
duty to urge upon the citizens of the
state of Wisconsin a general observ-
ance of May twenty-ninth, the ami
versary Of the birth of one of the great
est states in the Union.
That my purpose may not be misun-
derstoOd / will state that this mes
sage does not proclaim a general holt
day but suggests general observance
OF the day in colleges and schools, al
so by various organizations, including
civic bodies similar to that of the AS
ISOLATION of Commerce of Sheboygan,
which conceived and carried out the
first birthday party a year ago this
time. If the schools and the press of
the state will review our develop
ments as state, the citizens as a
whole will take even a greater pride
in her future.
1t is customary and highly proper,
that Memorial day programs be car
ried out in our schools and in this con-
nection, as we honor the patriots who
gave us nation, unexcelled the world
over, let us also pay tribute to our
own state, part of this same great
nation, whose future must be safe
guarded by those who will come after.
Therefore, I, Emanuel L. Philip, as
governor of the state of Wisconsin,
hereby designate and proclaim the
twenty-ninth day of May Wisconsin
day in honor of her admission to state
hood. Let us all glory in her achieve
ments and play our humble part to the
end that our state, great and rich in
resources and achievements, may con-
tinue to hold the proud position she
commands today.

at 1 o'clock on Saturday and will re-
main until Sunday evening, if neces-
sary. Al those who were to report

pointed in not being able to enlist. The
majority of those who had already en-
listed were there anxiously awaiting
the arrival of Lieut.. Best
