Each man was armed with an au-
tomato revolver but they were given
no chance by the officers to use them
in putting up fight.
After the arrest the men would
give no information concerning them
selves to the civil authorities. Upon
the arrival of Lieut.. Woody however,
one of the men readily answered ev-
cry question asked by the officer.
The other man remained silent dur
ing the questioning except when
spoken directly to by the Lieutenant.
They both gave the name of Mar

talkative one admitted they left

leave. He was able tofgive the names

MAN OWES MUCH
TO HUMBLE cow

Little does man realize the debt he
owes the COW. During the dark ages
of savagery and barbarism, we find her
early ancestors natives of the wild for
ests of the old world. AS the bright
rays of civilization penetrated the
darkness of that early period, the man
called upon the COW and she came forth
from her seclusion to share in the eff
forts that gave us greater nation and
a more enlightened people.
For two thousand years she has been
the co-partner of man, sharing alike in
his prosperity and adversely, respond
ing nobly to all that was done for her,
until through her DEVELOPMENT she has
become an idol of the people.
In 1893, when Columbus made his
second voyage TO America, the COW
came with him-and from that time to
the present day she has been a most
potent factor in making this, our own
country, one of the great nations.
Her sons helped tilf the soil of our
ancestors and slowly moved the prod
ucts of the farm to market They
went with man into the dense forests
of the new world. helped clear them
for homes and made cultivation posi-
BILE for the coming generation.
When the tide of emigration turned
westward, 1t was the OK that hauled
the belongings of the pioneer across
the plains and over the great mountain
ranges to the new homes beyond.
The COW is mans greatest benefac-
tor. Hail. wind, droughts and floods
may come, destroy our crops and BAN
ish our hopes. but, from what is left,
the COW manufactures the most nour-
ishing and DEMONSTRATING of foods.
The COW is life itself to thousands
Of little ones stranded upon the hollow
hearts and barren bosoms of modern
womanhoOd-
We love her for her gentleness. her
beauty, and her usefulness. Her 10y
atty has never weakened-and should
misfortune overtake US, as we become
bowed down with the weight of years,
we know that in the COW we have
friend that was never known to falter.
She pays the debt. She saves the
home.-Educational Bulletin.

BROTHERS ARE REC0NClLED
Enlistment in Marine Corps Ends Feud
of More Than TWO
Years Standing.

st. Louis.-Two brothers who have
not spoken to each other for two years,
although they slept in the same bed
and ate at the same table, became
reconciled through their enlistment
in the Marine corps.
The boys are Dan and Angelo Tar
antola of this city. Dan is twenty
and Angelo eighteen. They fell out
when Angelo broke up a game Of mar
bles In which his brother was play
ing.
Angelo joined the Marine corps. His
brother learned of It and came TO the
train to bid him farewell. After be-
coming reconciled there Dan decided
to join the marines and be with his
brother.
So he enlisted two days later and
the brothers are now at Paris Island,
S. c., where they are again fast friends,
after two years pact of silence.

An investigation made by the Ohio

pure breeding nor high performance
records of ancestry can be depended
upon to insure worthiness In a bufl.

performance records of bulls daugh-

TWO Birds WIEN One Stone.

Gov. E. L. Philip skilled two birds
with one stone when he made one
structure on his Ozaukee county farm
serve two purpOses-as a silO and as
a water tower. He is so well pleased
with the scheme that If he had to equip
another barn with water supply he
would follow the same plan. His ex-
perience with this water system for
the past four or five years has been
entirely satisfactory, and he is of the
opinion that the silage helps to raise
the temperature of the water during
the winter season for he has had no
trouble with ice forming in the tank.

ALL STRIKES HURT
MACHINERY OF WAR
THEREFORE, THE ARBITRATION
OF LABOR DISPUTES is PRAc-
TIcALLY ENFORCED NOW.
CONFUSION REALLY MORAL
Senate Must Soon Pass on an out-and-
Out Prohibition Experimentation

died Too Much.
BY ARTHUR W. DUNN.

Washlngton.-Arbit of labor
disputes is practically enforced now;
not quite Compulsory arbitration" to
which labor has made considerable OBJ
lection. but it practically amounts to
that. Nearly all of the labor of the
present day is tied Up with the war
in one way or another. There can be
no strike of any proportions which
does not afftsct the war work being
carried on b; the government. Con-
sequently 1t has become necessary Tor
the government to take up and settle
labor disputes.
After these labor disputes are arbi-
trated by the commission which was
named by the president, there is no ie-
gal power to compel men TO accept
the decisions. Employers must &C
cept them, because most of the en-
ployers are engaged in doing work nee
essary to carry on the war. But there
is a great moral "compusion" which
Is sufficient to make the labor men
accept just and equitable conclusions
of the authorities. Public opinion In
this country would not justify a strike
which would interfere with the maxi
ing of materials necessary to carry
on the war.

What is a luxury? The ways and
means committee of the house is hav-
ing a time of it deciding what articles
shall be included in the new revenue

silk socks have been classified as
luxury, but cotton or wool or Isle
socks seem to be considered necessi-

Within q few weeks now the sem
ate of the United States will be up
against a prohibition proposition, pure
and simple. The amendment which
has been held in order by vote of the
senate and will be attached to the ag-
ricultural survey bill. IS destined to
make the nation bone-dry the last of
next January, unless -omething hap
pens. First. the bill can be talked TO
death, as there is no agreement to
vote on It; second, 1t might be vetoed
by the president on the ground that
prohibition at this time would serious
~ interfere with the revenues of the
government. The men who are re-
sponsible for legislating TO raise rev.
enue are very much disturbed over the
losses which will be entailed when
prohibition becomes effective. Look
ing ahead as far as 1920. when the pro-
hibition constitutional amendment is
likely to go into effect. these revenue
ralsers say that the continuance of the
war beyond that time win make it
extremely difficult for them to find
methods of taxation to raise enough
money to carry on the government. In
view of this state Of affairs. the sena-
tors who are now In Washington have
been locking forward to the coming
prohibition contest with a great deal
Of interest.

VIII congress be considered an es-
sential industry? That question will
be very interesting to 13 senators and
10 representatives who are not yet
forty-five years of age. When the first
draft bill was under consideration
number of members of congress- led by
Speaker Champ Clark. tried to have
the age limit extended to sixty years,
and all the way down to the figure fin
ally agreed upon. At that time quite
number of men vociferously an
nounced that they were willing TO take
their chances in the draft. 1t will be
interesting to notice whether the
boards win decide that senators and
representatives are engaged in an es-
sential industry. But then 1t is more
than likely that most of them will es-
cape by being put in what is known as
the deferred classification list.

One day when the senate was dis
cussing mail facilities and the neces-
sity of soldiers receiving mail more
regularly than they have been since
they went abroad, Senator Nelson of
Minnesota took occasion to utter a
number of pointed remarks. The tenor
Of his speech was to the effect that
we ought not to try to coddle the sol
diers too much. While 1t is a good
thing for the soldiers to get mail, II
is not TO be expected that they would
have a letter from mother with their
morning coffee each day. 81 remem-
Der when l was in the army" said the
Minnesota senator, shat we didn't
have very much for the chaplains to
do when we were In the field and so
we turned the chaplains into postmas-
tiers and they distributed the mail
and became very useful. II is a good
thing for the soldiers to get mail, but
the other business of carrying on the
war must not be hampered in order
to carry packages containing sweet
meats and knick-knacks to the soldiers
in France"
