NO RINGERS ON THE.
NORMAL BALL TEAM
Only Students in Good Schol
astic Standing Permit
ted to Play.

The baseball game at South Side
Park Tuesday afternoon was the first
in several years in which the Normal
has been represented by an athletic
team with every player in the lineup a
boui fide student in good standing in
at least three subjects. Previous to
the game Tuesday the schedule of each
player was Investigated as we'll as
his standing in each subject. Because
of the new ruling few of the most
prominent players were not allowed to
participate IN the game.
From the amount OF work that ia
now being done by the players on the
Normal team, 1t looks as though the
new ruling will prove beneficial in not
only the athletic standing of the school
but the scholastic standing as we'll.
The students for the most part have
come to the point where they realize
that in order to take part in any game,
they must first and primarily be in
good scholastic standing. The new
rule which was unanimously accepted
by the student body. has met with the
approval of the entire team.
Before every athletic game in the fu-
ture, the Normal must file to the man.

school faculty of all players who are

Than CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets are
h a Harmless Substitute

r DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the Sub
stitute for calomel-are mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. They are the re-
suit of DR.. Edwards determination not
to treat liver and bowel complaints with
calomel. His efforts to Danish it brought
out these little olive-colored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the
good that calomel does, but have no bad
after effects. They don't injure the
teeth like strong liquids or calomel.
They take hold of the trouble and
quickly correct it. Why cure the liver
at the expense of the teeth? Calomel
sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
So do strong liquids. 1t is best not to
take calome1, but to let DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets take its place.
! Most headaches. "dullness" and that
lazy feeling come from constipation and
a disordered liver. Take DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel doggy" and
"heavy." Note how they clear" clouded
brain and how they "perk up" the spir-
its. 10c and Csc box. All druggists.

Boost For The Festival
To Be Held at Wabeno Friday
and Saturday, Oct. 5 & 6.

We are all looking forward to the
second annual Harvest Festival to be
held in Wabeno on Friday and Saturday
October 5th and 9th. Plans are being
made to make this larger and better
Festival than the one of last year which
proved very successful. Two entire
days will be given over to the Festival
this year. Friday will be ENTRY Day"
and all entries for exhibits must be en-
tered on this day. No exhibits will be
received on Saturday with the exception
of livestock which will be taken care of
until 10 o'clock Saturday morning.
| The eXhi bits will be located at the
Town Hall and the livestock will be
placed in stalls in the lot adjoining.
We will not be satisfied to have as
good Festival as we had last year,
but we want better one. 1t is neces-
sary, however, for every person in the
township to get interested and get his
neighbor interested. Talk about it.
Plan your exhibits now. Save your best
vegetables from the garden. Pick out
the good potatoes, wrap them in paper
so that the potato does not become
bruised in any way and bring them to
the Festival.
The ball will start rolling on Friday
night with dance. Saturday morning
will be given over to the parade with
races, games and a general good time
in the afternoon. Saturday evening a
patriotic entertainment will be given at
Neider's Hall. The committee is ar
ranging for other attractions to add to
the merriment.
Thisis our opportunity to get together
from all corners of the township for
good time, to meet all of your friends,
to display some of your best products,
and to see what splendid things are b. :
ing produced right here at home and to
show others that we are up and coming.
What can you do to help? Every lit
tie boost helps and makes the Festival
that much better. If you have an auto
cover it with flags and get into the
parade Help to make the parade the
best we have ever had
Do your part and be booster.

PROCLAMATION.

Pursuant to the su holity vested in
him by the President of the Unite d
States, Herbert Hoover, National Food
Administrator, has urged as patriotic
duty one MEATLESS DAY and one
WHEATLESS DAY in each week as
means of conserving he food supply.
Owing to the very great shortage of
wheat and meat, and the urgent neces-
sity of conserving the present food sup
ply an l of creating res rye supply
for future needs the people of this
Nation have been asked to make per-
sonal sacrifices. L is through their
cooperation alone that the food admins
trait can be successfully carried out.
Therefore, acting under the direction
of Food Administrator Herbert Hoover
l, Magnus Swenson, Food Adminlstra-
tor for Wisconsin, hereby call upon and
urgently request the citizens of this
state to set aside Tuesday, September
IS, 1917, and all Tuesdays thereafter
during the period of the war as meat
less day. | ask that all hotels, restau
rants and other eating places serve
meatless meals upon that day and that
this practice be followed in the homes
of all patriotic citizens.
In order, further, that Wisconsin
may do it's share in the conservation of
food | ask that Wednesday, September
10, 1917, and all Wednesdays there
after during the period of the war be
set aside as a wheatIess day | ask
the people of Wisconsin to abstain from
the use Of bread and pastries made
from wheat upon that day to the end
that the wheat supply of the United
States may be increased for the time
when greater calls will be made uponit.
1t was for this purpose that the peo-
pie of Wisconsin were asked to sign
the food pledge cards, but we have con-
cluded to put the above plan into eff
| feet without waiting for complete
return of the food pledge cards.
This proclamation made this four
teenth day of September, nineteen
hundred and seventeen.

DR.. Laure Muller, the ambassador

players of the northern and southern
sections of this hemisphere, says
Hampshire Gazette.
Coming on the heels of the announce
ment of Bishop Brent that the head.
hunting Moros of the Philippines have

and the assertion of other authorities
that the cheerful yelling OF the
'bleachcrs" Is now heard around the
world, this suggestion tends to beget
something more than nm amused smile.
Might not an all-American baseball
league rival IL not excel q Pan.Amer-
lean Union as q means OF promoting
peace and friendship? And IL an all
American, why not an all.world league?
Sport promotes good fellowship In
large part because Its rules provide for
absolute fairness to ala lesson the
contending nations Of Europe might
do well to learn.
The olive branch OF the future may
not be literally baseball bat, but n

The New Method
(BY L. W. BOWER, N. D.

Backache Of any kind Is often caused
by kidney disorder, which means that
the kidneys are not working properly
Poisonous matter and uric acid accumu-
late within the body in great abundance
over working the sick kidneys, hence
the congestion OF blood causes backache
In the same manner as similar con-
gestion in the head causes headache.
You become nervous, respondent, sick,
feverish, irritable, have spots appearing
before the eyes, bags under the lids, and
lack ambition 10 do things.
The latest and most effective means
OF overcoming this trouble, is TO eat spar
ingly Of meat, drink plenty water be-
tween meals and take a single Anuric
tablet before each meal for q while.
Simply ask your favorito druggist for
