SOLDIERS COMFORT BAGS

In many cities and towns,a women
and girls engaged in war relief work,
are making comfort bags for their
soldiers.
Wabeno Soperton has a fine bunch
of boys who will soon be going to the
training camps, and it would be nice
and patriotic if the women and girls of
our town would fit them out with one
of these comport bags.
For comfort bag it is well to use
khaki cloth to correspond with the uni
form. The most important thing is the
equipment Soldiers do not want a
lot of useless articles to remember you
by: but there are a number of things
they do need.
For instance if you want to have
your soldier to write to you place a
pocket in the bag filled with stamped
envelopes, not loose stamps, as they
stick together and are easily lost.
writing paper in the form of pad of
sheets could be slipped in each envel-
ope so as to be ready for use when
needed.
Of course, soldiers need sewing kits.
which can be purchased for 10c each.
The sewing kit may be a folder con-
taing white safety pins, buttons and
other things of the kind. Of course
these folders can be made at home.
Safety matches, tooth brushes,
wash-clothes, medicated cotton, band
ages to be use for small scratches,
darning cotton, darning needles, stom-
ach bands knitted of gray wool, post
cards and lead pencils are good things
for the comfort bag Naturally indi-
vidual needs and tastes will be con-
suited
The bag may be 10xl3 inches, anc
the initials of the owner, his state and
the number of his regiment may be
outlined on the outside.

Major Mccoy Visits Wabeno

Major Mccoy of the Wisconsin Ma
tional Guard visited Wabeno again on
Tuesday. In the evening the major
gave an interesting and instructive
talk to the business men of Wabeno
and Soperton, assembled at the town
hall. He told of what the different
cities were doing in the line of recruit
ing and the location of the different
companies. Under the arrangement
Forest County will have a company
with units at Crandon, Laona and Wa
beno. Each unit of 35 recruits or more
will have an officer, and Clarence Noble
was unanimously recommended for
lieutenant for the Wabeno unit. 1t will
be necessary to have an ouCside cap
tain. The major urged all to aid and
back the boys who have enlisted and to
see that suitable place was provided
for drilling. A resolution was adopted
accepting the invitation of the Govern
or for military unit at Wabeno.

GIVE FARMERS PRACTICAL AID

i If all of the gratuitous advice ten
dered the farmers since the food crisis
developed were compiled in one work,
the Encyclopedia Brittanica would not
hold it. Possibly there was some sound
sense in portions of it. Certainly the
major portion of 1t has been the merest
driyel
1t is not advice that the farmer
needs If there is class of men In
this nation today who are familiar
with every phase of their profession,
it is the farmers. And it is often with
feeling of amused contempt that they
read the senseless vaperings of the
wiseacres who essay to instruct them
What the farmer is in dire need of
right now IS more man power--man
power to put into effect the plans he is
perfectly capable of formulating and
carrying out if he has agents to do his
bidding. Let him be ever so intelli-
gent--and as rule he is person of
sound sense and reason-he simply can
not cultivate 100 acre farm by him.
self. But he can utilize 1000 acres If
he has the man power with which to do
it, for he already has the brains.
We should make no mistake in this
matter. With practically the world to
feed, if this war is won the farmer will
play an important part in the winning,
and all the advice from those slackers
going to help him one whit.
Can" the advice and offer him work
good sound muscle and sweat-and
the farmer will foed the world and do
his "bit" toward winning the war.
The most obvious fact to the farmer
is that, in the approaching draft and
mobilization, the first army to be
raised should be an army OF the fur
rows, and that army should be brought
to the burrows from other fields of
work-or idleness. And at no time
will this need be more pressing than on
the day of harvest.
Dhe average farmer can extract all
of the advice he needs just now from
a long life of experience. What will be
most effective now is bone and muscle,
backed by a willing mind an an intelli-
gence that even approaches his own.
Get the man power; the farmer will
do the rest.

BIG CROWD AT RED
CROSS MEETINNG

The Red Cross meeting ab the town
hall Tuesday evening was very sue
cessful affair and one of the largest
crowds ever assembled in the hall was
present.
M j. Quinlan presided and called on
Major Mccoy for an address. The major
complied and made stirring appeal for
the support of the government now
that she is at war with powerful foe,
and urged every person to do their bit
in helping to provide for the boys who
go to the front.
Mrs. Mordt of the Forest County Red
Cross chapter was the next speaker
and told of the work the Red Cross
was doing and what they expected to
do. John Swenhart, agricultural rep
resentative, Rev. Collier of Crandon,
and Mr.. Graft, representative of the
extension division of the state univer-
sity, also gave excellent talks on Red
Cross work and the Liberty Loan and
urged all to assist in doing what they
could to aid the government.
The meeting closed with the singing
of the Star Spangled Banner. Many
remained after the meeting to join the
Red Cross and to contribute to it's fund.

THE FIFTY DOLLAR BOND

In issuing Liberty Loan Bonds in a
denomination as small as $50 the sec
retary of the u. S. Treasury has put it
in the reach of almost every American
citizen to do a real and actual service
to his country.
Not all can fight; not all can render
personal service in other ways, but
those who are denied the privilege of
serving their country in person have
the privilege of serving her by lending
their money to win her victories.
But it is not patriotism alone that
urges the buying of Liberty Loan
Bonds Thrift and a wise economy in
investing small savings commend these
Liberty Loan Bond to small investors.
They are safe, and considering their
tax-free quality-free from all federal,
state and local taxes inheritance tax
es excepted) and free from any war
tax that may hereafter be levied, af-
fording an absolutely net income of 81
per cent, they constitute an ideal invest,
ment for savings.
Nor is there any reason for waiting
for a later bond issue in the expecta-
tion of higher rate of interest being
obtained, for the law provides that
should such bonds be issued later, Lib
erty Loan Bonds may be exchanged for
them at par

rain or shine.
There is fascination about a
tented show that appeals to ev'
erybody. In our childhood days
the blare of the band, tbs gaudily
painted wagons, the animals, the
funny clowns left an impression
on the mind that remained there
as long as life lasts.
Where old age comes and a
circus is billed, tottering steps
are directed to the route of pa.
rade, or to the circus grounds.
There is not the delight there
that came in the days of youth
but there are the memories that
come that count so much.
Young and old, rich or poor all
welcome the big circus. 1t is
an American institution that is
popular. The lemonade and the
peanuts never taste so good as
they do on the show lot. Other
pleasures many become monot-
onous but the glamour of the
tented arena never fades.

imal show is an old institution,
