BIG BOAT LAUNCHED.

A large steel steamer, full Welland
canal size, was launched at the ship
yards last Saturday. The bolt is moi
one OF the series of Norwegian ships
which are small powered and Diese
engine driven, but is an English boat
to be equipped with powerful steam
engines. All these ships have been
taken over by the United States gov.
ernment. The first Norweign boat
the Ada, has been ready to clear foi
some weeks and only unverified rum
ors tell when the boats will go and
where they will go to. An attempt
will doubtless be made to hurry all tc
deep water before lake navigation
closes for the winter.

The Hypocrite.

The divine punishment of hypocrisy
is fatigue. Those. in Shakespeare's
fine smile. whose hearts are all as
false as stairs OF sand, must really
have much of that exhausted sensa-
tion that comes of walking through
sand when 1t is loose and deep. The
hypocrite is that unluckiest of actors
who is never out OF job.--G. X. Ches.
terton.

Business Session

Madison, Wis, Sept 24th, 1917.
To the County Superintendent:
We appeal to you to aid, through the
schools in your county, in the nation
wide movement to provide good books
and periodicals for the soldier boys In
cantonment, trench, and hospital. A
donation of five cents from each child
will help to purchase books for ouI
Wisconsin boys, wherever they may
be, as well as for other soldiers. II
will help to erect a suitable library
building at each camp and provide for
library service.
1t has been found that the men crave
reading matter for their leisure hours
and read almost anything with avidity.
Some do serious reading, others study,
while many enjoy a good story.
President Wilson has made dona.
ton to this cause, as he believes 1t will
add to the happiness of the men. The
donations from teachers and pupils may
be collected by you and forwarded not
later than October 9th, TO John Ii
Puelicher, Treasurer, Marshall & lis
ley Bank, Milwaukee, Wis, who will
acknowledge receipt.
The movement has tho cordial on
dorsement of Supt. G. p. Cary.
Trusting that you will regard this as
a call to service and thanking you for
your cooperation,
Very truly,
LUTTE f.. STEARNS, Field Repre-
sentative for the Wisconsin Library
Commission.
This letter was received from the
Wisconsin Free library Commission
of which Emil Baensch is chairman.
Surely the teachers could work for
no more worthy cause than to help
supply our soldiers with books and
periodicals. Teachers do your bit.

LOCAL WAR NEWS.

camp at Waco, Texas, on Monday.
The regiment is the Second Wisconsin

and part of the 64rh brigade. 1t is
still "Co. H." however. The new
Wisconsin regiments went out OF exis-
tence when they merged into other
regiments to bring the companies up
to full war strength of 250 men. Each
company will have captain, three
first lieutenants and two second lieu
tenants which gives an opportunity for
commissions for many enlisted men.
Local visitors at Camp Douglas last
week report that officers praise the
old 2nd regiment highly and refer to I'll
as the crack company OF the regi-
ment.

ance and resisted the officers some
weeks ago near the Sheboygan county
line when about to be arrested for
failure to register was sentenced TO 60
days by Judge Geiger in the federal
court at Milwaukee. Voss regretted
the whole affair and said that anger at
being considered to be Stacker caused
him to make the demonstration. His
navy record of tour years was excellent.
This and his promise to re-enlist in the
navy secured light sentence for him.

ITEMS FROM The PILOT FILES,
FORTY.FOUR YEARS AGO.

The funeral obsequies OF Geo. W..
Fechter, who died on Saturday morn
ing last from the effects of the muir
derous assault made on him the previ-
Gus Monday night were observed on
the Goth.
The concourse of people in attend
ance was the largest we have seen out
for long time.
Mr.. Chas. Esslinger offered fitting
tribute to the memory of the departed
Tears were trembling in the eyes OF
all within reach OF his voice, upon the
cemetery grounds. The wife and
children have the sympathy of all
classes of our citizens in their sudden
and crushing bereavement.
The perpetrators of this murder most
foul, have not been discovered. We
do not agree with those who think he
was murdered for money, and have
nearly or quite settled down 10 belief
that this brutal attack was made by
some person or persons residing In
this city, and we believe it will be
worked up and brought to light.
The new Lutheran church on the
south side is rapidly approaching com
pletion. To-days work finishes the
brick work, and the frame for the
steeple is up. Room is left in the
frame for the face of town clock, and
if funds can be raised, clock will be
put in immediately thing which we
hope to see done.
