STATION AT
NORTH END Oh
DEVILS LAKE

E. E. Nash, assistant general su-
perintendent of the Chicago & North.
western Railway Co., has practically
agreed to erect a platform and shell
ter and have train stop each way
daily at the north end of Devils
Lake. Kirkland is at the southeast
corner of the lake, and there, two
miles away from the north end, is
the only railway station at the lake.
Baraboo people long have been
clamoring for an opportunity to alight
al tnat end of the lake nearest their
city. three miles away. Assembly
man George Carpenter took the mat
ter up with Mr.. Nash and the latter
now writes that at some time agree
able to all parties a meeting will be
held at the lake to determine what
best should be done.
Assemblyman Carpenter is taking
great interest in the development of
the state park at that point. Not
since the famous old Cliff House was
demolished at Devils Lake a dozen
years ago by order of Colonel w. F.
Villas, it's owner, have passenger
trains stopped at the upper end. Dur
ing the summer scores of cottagers
and campers reside there and great
ly desire train service, of which now
they have none.
Mr.. Carpenter chose to act direct
~ and informally about the matter
rather than resort to the state rail
road commission.

RECEPTION AND
ADDRESS TO
PARENTS-TEACHERS

The newly organized Parent-Teach-
ers' association held it's first regular
meeting Thursday evening. The lee
ture was preceded by reception for
parents, given by the high schol in
structors.
The hall ways of the schoolhouse
were beautifully decorated with
American flags and flowers. An or
chestra furnished the music. The
high schol teachers were in the re-
ceiving line. About two hundred par
ents were in attendance, many of
whom were from out of town. Many
met the instructors Of their children
for the first time.
At $3.50 the company gathered in
the assembly room of the high school
to listen to an address of Principal
Miller of the University High school
on the topic, 1.-THE High School and
the Community" The lecture was
interesting and full of common sense,
He said the key note of the address
was that the great task of the high
school was to help the student to find
himself, to learn the thing he can do,
to find out his permanent interest.
The other great duty of the high
schools is to develop responsible men
and women. After the lecture the
domestic science department served
coffee.
This morning he addressed the
teachers of the city schools on the
subject of Directed Study" This
was also an earnest talk. The teach
ers enjoyed it and profited by it.

JOHN MUIR FOLK
ENJOY JOURNEY
ACROSS COUNTRY

On Saturday afternoon few mem
bers of the John Muir walking club
of Madison, headed by Professor Sam
ueI Weidman, left the train at Able
man and walked north through the
narrows of the Baraboo river, then
south to the station and west through
the Narrows Creek narrows. Profess
sor Weidman explained the geology
along the way, explaining how the
quartzite rocks were laid down millions
of years ago, before there was life
on the earth, how they had been fold
ed into mountains possibly ten thou
sand feet high, how erosion has cut
them down to a much lower level, and
how the sandstone had been deposit
ed at a later epoch when there was
life, as shown by the fossils in the
rocks. He also explained how the
Baraboo river was once possibly ten
thousand feet above where it is now,
and how at a later period it made it's
bed much lower than where it now
sleeps beneath the thick covering of
ice. The story in connection with the
conglomerate, breccia and other for
nations were read by the biologists
as the members of the club passed
along.
The way led past the schoolhouse in
Joint District 10, town of Reedsburg,
and thence to the southwark to the
homes of Professor Weidman's mother,
Mrs. A. Weidman, and his three broth
ers, Grant, Henry and Clifton. Mrs.
Grant Weidman had ready for the
weary walkers a bountiful venison
dinner with all the accessories a
stored larder can produce. The mem
bers of the party split up and were
entertained for the night at the three
homes.
The walk was continued next day
to North Freedom, reaching the viii
lage by way Of the iron mines. After
dinner at the Trumble house, the
members continued their way to Bar
aboo, reaching the sation in time for
the evening train south.
Those in the company besides Pro,
fessor Weidman were Judge e. Ray
Stevens of the Dane-Sauk Circuit
court; T. S. Morris, president of the
walking club; Professor L. r. Jones
Of the university; G. B. Lester of the
state law reference library; Paul N.
Reynolds Of the state tax commission;
F. D. Winkley, an engineer, Madison;
and Fl. E. Cole, Baraboo.

Evie ereene's Ghost Story.

Miss EVE Greene, the musical COM
edy ~favorite who has just died, used
to tell a story about a ghost which she
firmly believed she had seen, says
London Tit-Bits. The London CORE
spondent of the Sheffield Daily Tele-
graph says the vision was at Sunder-
land, when she was playing principal
boy in a pantomime.
Miss Greene was lodging In a fish
erman's cottage, and n night, when
she and some girls from the panto-
mime were going to her rooms for sup
per, there overlook them on the stairs
the transparent figure of a little sailor
lad, his arms raised, his eyes closed,
and his body dripping with water.
The figure hurried up to the attic
Of the cottage, and Miss Greene and
her companions ran trembling into the
nearest room. Afterwards they went
all over the house, but could discover
no trace of the visitor.
Next thing Miss Greene found her
landlady grief-stricken. She had just
received a telegraph from the owners
of a ship In which her boy had sailed,
saying that the vessel had been lost
with all hands.

Apropos of the murderous German

why, the Germans have no more
regard for women's and chlldren's
lives than the old California justice
had for the Chinaman.
"This Chlnaman had been killed by
a drunken rancher, and the proof
against the murderer seemed irrefut-
able. The justice, however, wound up
the case in short order.

FANCY CHEFS GIVEN LESSON

Irwin.
BY IRWIN.

A few weeks ago the Quartermaster
generals department, faithful to its
complicated task of supplying every
thing from shoes to sugar to a rap
Idly forming army of over a million
men, telegraphed an appeal to SO lead
ing hotel proprietors throughout the
country asking the loan of 3,S40 chefs
and expert cooks to teach the science
of g~astronomics to the kitchens of our
16 new environments.
Now, the Observation-Disclosures old
mess s%ergeants of our regular army
booking schools-of which four have
tlourished for many years-are willing
and anxious to sit at the feet of the
capable wizards who have fed Fifth
avenue and fremont street; but so
great is the faith of the mess sergeant
in the manual for army cooks, issue
of 1916, that they pause reflectively in
their scientifically arranged pantries
and allow-quite unofficially - that
maybe q few of those fancy chefs will
go back to their hotels with one or
two choice recipes well worth trying
on the favored fellow who always gets
by the plush rope and calls the head
waiter by his first name.
AS a matter of fact NJ. Panchard,
famous chef of the Hotel McAlpin,
New York, was loaned" a while back
in. order to gain sufficient knowledge
of army. cookery to instruct National
Guard kitchens in various New York
nrmories. NJ. Panchard spent two days

at Washington barracks, where he stu
died the cuisine for enlisted men; he
went back to New York with his OBJ
iservations, together with a copy of
the months menu. Today the McAlpin
serves-by the enthusiastic recommen-
dation Of NJ. Panchard-a military
luncheon" which is a duplicate of the
noon meal which Uncle Sam dishes up
for his boys. The price of this meal
is so cents and it is the highest com
pliment which Broadway can pay the

In fact, the day of Civil war hard

tide him over bad situations where
the enemy fire is hotter than the bake

Uncle Sam has become a domestic

tritive values and q psychologist who
realizes that the stomach's digestive
juices will not respond unless the
palate ~telegraphs its approval to the

Never before in the worlds history
have commanders of troops realized
how absolutely an army "moves on

too far TO say that a unit in molten Is

Closer than the artillery to the in

A school teacher had asked a class
of grade pupils for compositions on
the violet. On looking ove the writ
ten compositions she found the fol-
lowing:
THE violet has sepals, petals, and

Perplexed, she called the author to

s. Walter Woodward. whose death
in Massachusetts yesterday comes with
shocking surprise to the people of Wash
ington, had made particularly striking
record as a business man at the Ma
tional Capital. He, with his partner.
Mr.. Lothrop, came here many years ago
and established business that under
their careful management grew steadily
and rapidly, until it became one of the
strongest institutions here, a CONNER
cial organization that has always been
q credit to the city. In his many activi-
ties Mr.. Woodward was a helpful
citizen, aiding in public enterprises of
merit, giving generously to all objects
for the welfare of the people, personally
assisting in the execution of plans for
the betterment of the community. His
death is untimely, as he had not reached
an age at which the end is imminent
Personal sorrows had, however, weighed
upon him, and the sad news today is
an occasion of general public regret and
keen individual distress among those
who enjoyed the close acquaintance of
Mr.. Woodward.
