RED CROSS CHRISTMAS
SEALS WILL HELP
TO WIN THE
WAR
VIII Provide Funds to Help
Keep tuberculosis from
American Army

Red Cross Christmas Seals
will help to win the war, for
they will help to keep the Amer
lean Army free from tuber-
culosis. They will help to care
for the thousands of men who
are being rejected from service
because they have tuberculosis,
and they will also do their share
to provide funds to educate the
entire country in the treatment
and prevention of the disease.
The National Association for
the Study and Prevention OF
tuberculosis, in a statement
just issued, reports that i'm
mediately following the dec
laration of war with Germany
it worked with the Council of
National Defense, urging an ex-
animation of every soldier for
the detection of tuberculosis
1t also helped to gather in
formation regarding all the
facilities in the United States
for making these examinations,
including tuberculosis special
lists who could assist. The me-
dical corps of the army there
upon made use of this data and
started the examination of
every soldier in the officers
training camps, former Nation
al Guard and the new Nation
al Army. The National Associa-
ton and various state and 10
cal associations are conducting
educational campaigns in each
army cantonment and camp.
In addition, every local Red
Cross Chapter is planning to CO.
operate in the care of civilian
relief cases in which tuber-
culosis is a factor. Apart from
actual work with tire soldiers,
the National Association has
undertaken to follow Up the
men who have been rejected
from service on account of hav-
ing tuberculosis A campaign
to reach these men through
their state health boards and 10
cal anti-tuberculosis associa-
tions is being conducted with
great success.
All this work requires the
support of the public, for it
vitality concerns every COM
munity in the country from
which the army is being re-
cruited. Red Cross Christmas
Seals give the public its op-
portunity to help carry it out.
The goal set for the Seal fund
this year is $3,oOO,OOO, and the
American Red Cross and the
National Association are appeal
ing to every man, woman, and
child to buy three times as
many stamps this year as they
bought last year.
Every penny spent for Red
Cross Seals has it's work to do,'
says the appeal. "This work is
of vital Importance to the ma
ton. Don't be a Stacker in the
fight against the Great White
Plague. Every Red Seal is q
bullet in the war against tuber-
culosis."

WORDS FROM HOME
Statements That May Be investigated.
Testimony of Baraboo Citizens

When a Baraboo citizen comes to
the front, telling his friends and
neighbors of his experience, you can
rely on his sincerity. The statements
of people residing in far-away places
do not command your confidence.
Home endorsement is the kind that
backs Doan's Kidney Pills. Such tes-
timony is convincing. Investigation
proves it true. Below is a statement
of a Baraboo resident. No stronger
proof of merit can be had.
Louis Moon, Baraboo, says: My
back was stiff and lame and bothered
me quite bit. Doan's Kidney Pills
gave prompt results, and after thor
ough use, the trouble left me-"

LINCOLN CHAUTAUQUA
To BE JULY 10
TO IS INCLUSIVE

Following soon after the country's
great Fourth of July celebration
comes another fine influence for the
promotion of American patriotism.
There is no finer method for the de-
velopment of the proper national spir-
it in these crucial days than first
class chautauqua. There are many
organizations following the chautau-
qua plan; some good, some Indifferent.
In city like Baraboo we ought to
be able to have the very finest; and
this year leading citizens of the city
are backing such an organization in
the Lincoln chautauqua, with pro-
gram worthy of any city and at price
which makes it possible for everyone
to have the benefit of the entertain
ments. A program of exceptional
value has been provided. Six big
days; twelve complete sessions; dou-
BILE numbers at every session, and a
change of talent each day. This pro-
gram represents the best possible in
instruction and entertainment.
Note the Lecturers
Dr. Ira Landrith, one of the big,
brainy men of our age, with a vital
message for young and old; Nels
Darling, business man and commune
ty expert from Oklahoma, who talks
in an entertaining and stimulating
way to the mechant and his custom
er on their mutual RELATIONSHIP is
one of the Invest entertainers on the
American platform; DR.. E. L. Eaton,
chautauqua favorite, with his wit, hui
NOR, science and philosophy; Chief
Tahan, the civilized Indian; Arthur
K Peck, of Boston, in his illustrated
lecture descriptive of the Life-Saving
Service of our coasts, and Mohammad
Ali of India, barged in the expensive
brocaded robe of the Hindu.
Then Note the Musical Features
Charles w. Niles and his famous
Hussar Band, fourth year with Lin
coin chautauquas; Alma Beck, con-
tralto prima donna, supported by
Adolf and Mary Hahn, duo violinists,
an all-star company; the American
Opera quartet-Joel Mossberg's organ
ization, giving the best in vocal mu-
sic, along with opera in costume, at
night; the l.. A. c. orchestra, eight
talented young ladies in instrumental
and vocal numbers; Martha Cook,
known throughout the northwest as
one of its sweetest singers, and
BANDS Collegians.
And Turn to the Exceptional Enter
tainers
Arthur Rachel, Interpreter OF great
plays; Tom Corwine, who has made
, thousands of people laugh and cry
for joy; Beulah Truitt, talented read
er; Beatrice Weller, with her cartoons
and art pictures illuminated with
sparkling humor. and William Sterling
BATHS, in his portrayal of Dickens
characters.
A proper control of the play hours
of the children of your community
means much to their future develop
| ment and welfare. The Youths chau-
Itauqua program, with a trained work
| er in charge, is carefully worked out
with a view to the interests of our
young people. Their week of profit

ALL SALOONS
IN BARABOO
OUT OF GAME

On Saturday night eighteen saloons
IN Baraboo went out of existence-a
sevenleague step in the right direc-
ton.
There was no great demonstration
when King Booze, Prince Light Wine
and Baron Beer left town. According
to the will of the majority, they have
gone for year at least, and whether
or not they return must be settled in
the future.
Ever since Baraboo was frontier
village liquor has been sold with little
restriction. Recently the handwriting
has been on the wall, and except for
d few skirmishes with possible blind
pigs and bootleggers, the revolution is
now over.
A number of elections have been
held in past years and the sentiment
has been gradually growing in the
tight direction. Last spring when the
votes were counted the town was
found to be in the dry column. 1t was
long, hard fight and now that it is
over the conditions in many families
here should gradually improve.
One of the saloonkeepers left the
city some weeks ago with a circus, and
,thers are folding their tents to go
way Most of them, however, will
emain to engage in soft drinks or 9TH
er business.
Not Bone Dry
Baraboo is not "bone dry" since
mere is no state law to prevent liquor
~om being shipped into dry territory.
he order for the liquor must be given
o firm on the outside of the city,
and shipped into town.
The villages of Ableman and Kill
and the city of Portage remain
c. likewise Milwaukee and other
,laces, so that booze may be obtained
~ paying for it and adding the
eight. None can be sent through the
nails.
Many Visitors in Town
Many visitors were in Baraboo on
aturday night to see King Alcohol
'epart. When the saloons closed the
,olice invited them to move on, ana
hey did. Many came in automobiles
nd a number from Lodi by train. So
ar as learned all of the saloons had
.nough to supply their customers I'M
il the last minute. Some held spe-
ial sales and at Madison one or two
ndu1ged in auctions to close out the
,st package The police report no
nusual number of DRINKS, but sew
al were little wobbly as they tot
cred home with a precious package
nder the arm At the breweries there
as a rushing business for some days
efore the calamity came, and numer-
Us loads were hurried away to cellars
d outside saloons. Hereafter orders
Just be sent to their stations outside
the city, and the goods must come
rom there. No deliveries can be
,ade from the breweries direct to res
.ents in the city.

BISHOP BASHFORD
HERE ON SUNDAY

Bishop James W. Bashford of the
Methodist church, whose home is at
Pekin, China, spoke at the First M.
E. church in the morning, and at the
union services at the Congregational
church Sunday evening. While here
he was the guest of his sister, Mrs.
Jane Ellison. For thirteen years Bish-
op Bashford has labored in China and
has become not only leading mis-
sionary, but man of influence in the
political, social, industrial and educa.
tional development of the country. He
is in this country on account OF the
health of his wife.
In the morning he preached G SER
mon on the development Of personal
ity, taking for his text the words: He
came into his own and his owd re-
ceived him not"
He spoke of the difficulty Of per-
sonal receiptivity and how hard it is
for us to receive from the outside un-
less we are in receptive mood. 1t
was an address full of philosophy,
dealing with the animal, human, per-
sonai and divine elements. Humanity
is amply supplied with the first, Sec
ond and third, but lacking in the
fourth. Christ came to give the di-
vine.
China
His talk on China was a long expe-
rience in q nutshell. He said that
China was the oldest nation in the
world, having been in existence 1000
years when Greece and Rome were at
the height of their glory. 1t is the
largest nation the world has ever
known. He showed how Christianity
has gripped China and how the Meth
odist church has led in the work by
it's method of healing, preaching and
teaching.
He spoke of the republican form Of
government which the nation has
been experiencing. China may return
to monarchy, having been a republic
for seven years, but it will go back
again, the speaker asserted. Japan,
France and other countries are exert
ing an OutS1ue luHuehCe WHICH 10 nv
for the best,
The people are brought the closest
to the central power of the govern
ment through the individuals who col
lect the taxes and keep the peace.
Every activity except agriculture is
controlled by guilds, and these WELD
a great influence on the affairs of the
country.

Melven Felt of the town of Fairfield
was in Baraboo on Saturday and re-
ports that he has the finest field of
clover he ever raised. He also reports
that on the Lewis farm, near by, was
never better. The cool, damp weather
with ample rain has been excellent for
all grass crops.
Miss Luise Gattiker, superintendent
of the Red Cross work in Sank county,
has retired from Chicago, where she
has completed a course in this branch
of the war needs. The persons who

what is wanted in the way OF materials
and how supplies should be prepared
and packed ready for shipment. A
large number of persons in the county
desire to aid in sewing supplies for the
wounded, and Miss Gattiker is now
able to give definite instructions. The

its work and others in the county are
following the same line.
