INVEST CAPITAL IN THIS COUNTRY
Financial Commission of Japan Mill Come to the United States

Ioklo, Sept. 25-Correspondence Of the Associated Press-How to invest japanese capital in the United States IS believed to be one of the objects of the official Financial Commission which will soon visit America. The business circles of the Empire attach great importance to this mission be- cause it represents an intention on the part of Japan to adapt herself in a f1- nancial and economic way to the new conditions created by the war and by the entrance of the United States into the hostilities.
 Baron Tanetaro Megata, one of Ja- pans leading financiers, who has been designated by the cabinet chief com- missioner will be accompanied to America by a staff of experts from various ministries and by four prom inent men representing the leading business interests. In a general way, he says he wishes to develop prac- tical working cooperation of the bus dness interests whether they be in the United States, Japan or China.
 The commission will visit all the leading centers in the United States, including San Francisco, Chicago, New York and Washington and will con- suit with representative Americans, both private and official.
 Baron Megata will have with him Baron Bunkichi Ito, the son of the late Prince Ito, who is attached to the Ministry of Agriculture and Com merce; Osamu Matsumoto, the chief of the financial section of the Treasury Department; Takenosuke Sakaguchi, expert of the Financial Department and pr. Seiji Hisida, secretary inter preter for the Korean Government General.
 The four business men who rank as commissioners include Umek1ch1 Yon- eyama, a director of the Mitsui Bank who was educated in the United States; Yoshitaro Yamashita of the 6umitomo Bank, Osaka; Kenjiri Mat sumoto, of the Yatsukawa Mining Co.,, and Chozo Koike, of the Kuhara Mining Co. ..
 Baron Megata Is the man who built up the financial and economic system of Korea prior to and during the Ja- panese residency general. He was fi- nancial advisor to Korea from 1904 to 1907 and later was made member of the House of Peers. He is one of the veteran financial administrators of tho Empire, a graduate of Harvard University and speaks English readily Baroness Megata is the daughter of the late Count Katsu, formerly a leading figure in the nation.
 Dr. Hishida is a graduate of Col umbia University and is an author on International topics. Several other members of the mission have studied in the United States and are familiar with conditions there.

Tn the districts occupied by Bull garia the reduction in population is 100000.
 "Dr. Otokar Ribar, the Austrian Reichsrath Deputy, declared in the Vienna parliament in June 26: Ser bia will be saved, but there will no longer be Serbs.' He said these words when protesting against the greatest crime committed in this war, the de- portation of 3O,00O Serbian women, children and men from the depart ments of Vranje, Nish and Pirot, and their internment in Asia Minor. Among these 30,000, there were 5000 women and young girls delivered over to the Turks. Of these a great num- Der committed suicide by throwing themselves out of the trains convey ing them to Asia Minor.
 'The deaths among war prisoners and those interned are put at from 6o,ooo to s0,0o0. After the retreat from Serbia and the reconstitution of the Serbian army, about 20 per cent. died at Corfu. Our losses on the Sa- loniki front have been about 50 per

Austrian Deputy Makes Known His Views on Interesting Question

London, Sept 25.-(CorrespOnd- ence of the Associated Press) 1.-The situation in Serbia today is summed up in 8 communication received by the British Socialist Party from the executive committee of the Serbian Socialists. It says:

Take one or two Cascarets tonight and enjoy the incest, gentlest liver and bowel cleansing you ever experienced.

 Mothers should give a whole Cas- caret anytime to cross, silk bilious or feverish children because it will act thoroughly and can not injure.

Stockh olm, Sept 2O.-The Swedish steamer Flandria was attacked by Zeppelin on it's latest trip homeward. The first bomb which was dropped narrowly missed the ship. The en- zines were stopped and the crew or dered into the boats. Four more bombs were dropped dangerously near the vessel. Before all those on board had entered the boats there was a panic, and the captain had to use his revolver to enforce discipline.
 The ships company, after remain ing for about two hours in the boats, returned to their ship. Several hours later another airship appeared and hovered about the ship for time, but departed without doing any harm.

day for Madison to visit the Junior

ed as the model high school of the state
From Madison he will go to Milwauke ct

of the value of dentists conventions
and Mr. Rusch and Mr. Quinlan, thru
their knowledge of the value.of lumber

school is TO rank with the best schools
of the state, the man at the helm must
keep we'll informed, not only on the
organization, curriculum and methods
of instruction in our school system, but
must know the last word of the masters
who have won special recognition in
some field of educational research.
There you have 1.-THE north and the
south. Down in the conservative
southern part of the state, where land
is worth $500. 00 an acre and lead mines
are making millionaires every year, a
howl goes up because teacher is per-
mitted to have few days off at his
own expense to go to a great big ed
ucational meeting, that he, and thru
him the school he serves, may gain in
spiration from those greater and big

tional progressive. What should have
/ been done was not only to haye grant
ed his schoolmaster leave of absence
but also TO pay his expenses, as was
done with the Forest Comfy school
master, who fortunately comes from

agricultural and mineral wealth, is
long in building up the bulwark of
of American citIZenship-the public

DOES 1T PAY?
CURIOSITY

Including Prin. Lightcap deleg
of Bose. bel teachers attended the
teachers meeting at Milwaukee last
week 1t rs doubtful whether the re-
suits of the meeting to our teachers
are commensurate with the sacrifice
made Teachers betrayed their own
expense. the children lost two days in
struction, and after all seems that it
was for the purpose that those at the
head might exploit their untried the
Ories. The common everyday grade or
rural teacher IS HARDLY IN TOUCH
with teachers and educators who
assume much more than they can real
ly make practicable.
Isn't it fortunate that the good, big
world in which we live and breathe and

progress with a saner vision than does
