Old Prussian Town.

Osnabruck is one of the most vener- able towns CT Prussia. Tn the closing years of the eighth century Charle- magne designated it as the capital of bishopric, a distinction which it en- joyed without interruption for more than thousand years. In 1903 the see was suppressed, the last bishop being Frederick, duke of York, son of the English Hanoverian monarch, George III. In 1858 the city was restored to its religious eminence when it was again made the seat of a Roman Catholic bishop.

Power Exerted by Growing Squash.

Power Exerted by Growing Squash.
 A writer recalls an experiment once made at Amherst agricultural college. in which young squash was placed under a steel harness and in a wooden cradle in such manner that its ex- pansire force as it grew was exerted against lever on which weights were carried. After about two months me- chanical energy of more than two tons was registered and when the harness burst under the strain a week later a weight of two and half tons was raised and could have been carried if the squash had been properly sup ported.

DEATH OF MRS. JEANETTE SMITH

The past week has witnessed the
passing of another of the worthy pio
neers OF Wisconsin. At the home OF
her daughter, Mrs. Cairncross, A E
milwaukee, Ave, Wauwatosa, Wiscon-
sin, Mrs. Jeanette Smith, widow OF
Isaac B. Smith, for many years a res.
ident and influential citizen of Pewau-
kee, passed to the reward of a long
and useful Christian life, on Monday.
November 18th. 1917.
She was buried from the home of
Mrs. Cairncross on Wednesday No
vember 14th, where a short service
conducted by Rev. Geo. c. Alborn.
acting pastor of the Underwood Me.
mortal Baptist Church, was held. after
which the remains were taken to the
cemetery at Pewaukee and there laid
to rest beside those of her husband
who had preceded her by seventeen
years.
Mrs. Smith was born near Perth.
Scotland, Oct. 10Th, 1926. She came
10 America at II years of age on the
same ship that brought the Lindsay
family and many other stalwart
Scotch families who helped not a lit
tie to give character and real worth
to the communities where they settled
and to the citizenship of their adopt-
ed state.
She married Isaac B. Smith. April
18th, 1S49, and they settled on a tract
OF land on the south shore of Pewau-
kee Lake, purchased from the govern
ment for SIPS per acre, where to-
gether they labored to make the home
for the family of nine children which
came to them and where for nearly
fifty years they worked and made sac
rlt1ces for the education of the chill
dren and the building up of the church
to which they were devotedly attach
ed and actively interested in through
life.
She knew from rich experience the
blessedness of personal sacrifice for a
worthy object. For her no price was
too great to pay that her children
might have their opportunity Her
children, her home, and her religious
life were never neglected. Those who
knew her best rise to call her blessed.

told them that some friends of hers
once had one of those Mexican dogs

you suppose they called him Minus?"
But sister didn't seem to be able to
figure it out. 81 know, mamma" vol

schools of Wisconsin having respond
Oh to the request of the Wisconsin
LOYALTY Legion to use the Presidents
war Message" and the pamphlet on
oHow the War Came to America" as
basis in education in war topics, the
Legion is now urging that the work
he extended to the ungraded schools.
The Presidents Message" is not
only one of the greatest historical
do,aments this country has produced;
II is also an example of splendid, sim
nile. classic English which can be
studied and read with profit in any
class in reading or composition.
II has been annotated by some of
Americas foremost historians, giving
the facts upon which the President
bases the statements. A study of these
notes will give the pupil better un-
Outstanding of many phases of the
history of the war than the reading of
many large volumes.
How the War Came to America
is the carefully prepared statement of
the events that inevitably led this ma
lion to defend itself by war. A study
of it will enable any child or adult
10 understand the causes back of the
war
With such material available, there
is no excuse for any school not be-
coming a center of patriotic education.
Parents are interested in this work.
The whole nation is interested in it..
If the people do not know the facts a
nation cannot act intelligently. If any
school is not doing this work it is not
only missing its opportunity and
cheating the children Out OF the most
important knowledge needed at this
time, but it is also leaving gap in
the intellectual line of this nation
through which the falsehoods of our
enemies may come and break our
civilian morale.
The recent State Convention of the
Wisconsin Teachers adopted a ringing
loyalty resolution. This work gives an
opportunity to translate that resolu-
ton into deeds.
The Wisconsin Loyalty Legion as
the representative of the Committee
on Public Information, urges every
citizen to make sure that this work is
being conducted in the schools near it.
II is as necessary that the public
school plants be used at this time as
that any other resource of the nation
be kept fully employed.
