Everyone Get Ready to Subscribe
Their Share
Purpose is to Supply Smokes for Bay
field County Soldier
Boys.

The tobacco drive is on in
Washburn. Chairman Harvey
Irish of the Bayfield, county COM
mittee and his local committee
in this city have all arrange
ments for the drive which starts
this week.
Manager Trowbridge of the
Temple and Gem Theatres has
very generously donated the use
of his two theatres for the
benefit of the soldier boys and
shows will be staged at both of
these places on given evening.
The plan is to make the drive
complete. Every individual in
the city will be visited. Every
one will be asked to donate.
1t should be remembered that
the tobacco fund is for our own
soldier boys, the boys who have
gone forward from Bayfield,
county. The plan is to make
the fund a permanent one and to
keep the boys supplied as long
as the war lasts. Every boy
from Bayfield, county will re-
ceive his share.
The Dupont Patriotic Associ-
alton has subscribed $3.50 per
month to the fund and with the
subscriptions which will be re-
ceived throughout the county it
is expected that there will be a
stream of smokes crossing the
waters each month for the boys
in France and in the camps in
this country.

Returns From Waco

William DeMars returned the
first of the week from Waco,
Texas, where he has been con-
fined in hospital during the
past two months with a broken
ankle. William was a volunteer
ember of the Bayfield, county
company. AS he was leaving
Waco for the east to go 'over.
seas" he met with an accident
in which his foot was crushed by
a heavy motor truck and since
that time he has been laid up in
the base hospital,
William is now able to get
around again but his ankle is
weak and he will probably not
be called into service for some
time. He was very anxious to
go to France and fight for the
cause of democracy and he says
that he may get there yet unless
heis turned down by the medical
authorities of the army.

Make You Sign

In order to determine the
amount of coal that will be re-
quired by the people of the
United States during the coming
season the U. S. Government is
requiring coal companies to get
an estimate of the amount of
coal to be used during the next
season by their customers, also
an estimate Of the amount used
during the past season.
1t is very likely that these
figures will be checked up and
people will not be permitted to
hoard coal.
The Government is urging all
persons to put in their supply OF
coal for next season during the
summer months and thus re-
lieve the shipping during the
winter when rail haNls are made
necessary.

School Children Petition School
Board to Reconsider
c. E. Hutton Of Ashland County Training
School rendered Super
intendenCy.

The resignation of Guy d.
Hyper as City Superintendent of
Schools and the hiring of G. E.
Hutton of the Ashland County
Training School by the School
Board has caused quite a little
excitement in school circles dur
ing the past week.
Mr.. Kyper's resignation was
presented to the Board last Fri
day and was acted upon and at
a meeting of the School Board
held the following day the posi-
tion was rendered to Mr.. C. E.
Hutton, superintendent of the
Ashland County Training School
at Mellen.
Following the action of the
Board a meeting of the school
teachers of the city was held at
the Library and the action Of the
board was severely criticized and
the teachers asked that the mat
ter be reopened and that they be
given hearing.
On Monday a petition was cir
culated throughout the High
School and was signed by over
$50 pupils in which they protest
ed against the hiring of any
other Superintendent other than
Mr.. G. D. Hyper and like
petitions were circulated through
out the city on Tuesday and
Wednesday by the school child
rem in which like protests were
made.
Up to last evening the Board
through it's secretary had not
been informed of any dissatis-
faction over their action but the
whole trouble seems to be on
the outside and rumors are rum
ming thick and fast. School
strikes, designations Of teachers
and the like rumors have gone
the rounds and have grown from
day to day.
Mr.. Hyper informs the Times
that his resignation was asked
for and was handed to the board
to take effect at the close of the
present school year, but he also
says that no charges Of any kind
were preferred against him and
he is at a loss to understand the
action of the Board.
Mr.. Hyper has been city
superintendent of schools during
the past two years and has ap-
parently given satisfaction. He
has been a hard worker and
many people will regret seeing
the family leave the city.

LOAN DRIVE TO
START APR. Is
$780, 600 is Quote to be Raised in
Bayfield, County
Amount for City Of Washburn and AdjOin-
ing Towns is $SO,5OO.
Committees Ready.

The big drive for the Thiro
Liberty Loan will be started in
every town and city in Bayfield,
county on April 18th. The
starting of the drive will be an
nounced with the blowing OF
whistles, the ringing of bells
and the display of the National
colors.
Chairman A. HI. Wilkinson of
the Bayfield, county committee
and his associates throughout
the county plan to go "over the
top" with the Third Liberty
drive in the same manner as the
first two loans were oversub-
scribed, only they expect to hit
it harder than ever before.
Our boys are now in France
where they are face to face with
the Hun hordes. They are daily
in contact with the opposing
armies and are willingly giving
up their life that the cause Of
democracy and freedom may
long live. We at home have a
duty to perform in backing up
these boys with our resources.
In the Liberty Loan we are
not asked to give a single cent
to the government but on the
other k.sisd the Government asks
that we loan our money at a
good rate of interest which will
be repaid again after a few
years. By buying Liberty Bonds
we help to back up our boys,
many of whom are the sons of
Bayfield, County people, we fur
nish the money for the success
full prosecution of the war while
our boys at the front do the
fighting for us.
The oversubscription of the
Third Liberty Loan will do more
to finish this struggle than any
thing else we might do at home.
It will show the Kaiser and the
imperial government of Germany
that the United States is in this
war to win and that the people
are back of the Government.
Prepare to take all of the
bonds which you feel able to
carry. Remember that bonds
can be purchased on the install
ment plan, payable in small pay
mentS.
The following are the quotos
which have been assigned to the
various districts Of Bayfield,

Won Ribbons

George Fox was at Duluth the
latter part of last week where he
exhibited two of his Boston
Terriers at the Duluth Dog
show and he came back with
ribbons for both of his dogs.
George is a good judge of dogs
and he now has some of the best
in the country. During the last
two shows at which they have
been exhibited they have taken
ribbons. One of them is but a
pup but he has all the markings
of a Champion.
