CITY LOSES VACATION CASE.

The city lost In the supreme court
the case which arose over the short
piece Of 7th street between Quay street
and the river. The council voted 8 to
6 to vacate In favor OF the Land g. Fuel
Co. The city attorney and mayor rul-
ed that a two thirds vote was necessary
under the city charter. The company
claimed that a general statute govern
ed requiring but a majority vote.
Judge Burnell who heard the resulting
mandamus proceedings decided that
the charter provision is invalid and
that the majority vote was enough.
The supreme court has now upheld this
ruling. The text OF the decision has
not yet reached the city.
Hougen g. Brady appeared for the
company and City Attorney Ledvina
for the city.

WILL HAVE TO WORK.

The young man mentioned in the
city council meeting two weeks ago as
being supported by city aid given to his
wife after he had been exempted from
military service because of dependent
family, was up in court Monday. He
is % years of age and healthy. His
name is O'Malley, but he has none OF
the spirit that the name suggests to
those who remember Levers lively
hero. Charles in the romance desired
nothing better than fight, but this
unworthy bearer of an honored name,
evidently wants to shirk his duty TO his
country behind woman's skirts and
then loll in idleness, subsisting upon
the food with which charity supplies
his little family. The municipal court
sentenced him to six months at hard
labor. Can't the A. O. H., the Clan
naGae or the Sim Fein or something
make this fellow quit using this name?

CIRCUIT COURT NOTES.

The Zulu Knitting Mills case began
Thursday morning and dragged along
all that day and most of Friday. Afte4
it became apparent that the proceeding
was going to take many days and per-
haps weeks, halt was called for a
conference and after few hours the
attorneys agreed on terms of settle
ment and the case came to stop. The
Zulu Cooperating Co. at Two Rivers
went into bankruptcy few years ago
and the East Wisconsin Trustee Co. as
trustee, on behalf of creditors sued
stockholders to compel Them to pay in
the amounts they were alleged to be
short of the par value of their stock
and to refund dividends alleged to have
be en- unlawfullv declared and paid.
The claims totaled over 100000 and the
settlements are said to be less than
$1,000 still subject TO the approval OF
the U. S. court which alone has juris-
diction of bankruptcy matters. 1t was
a tangled mess with all the stockhold-
ers contesting the trustees claims but
having antagonistic defenses among
themselves. There were five law
firms represented. j. j, Healy repre-
sented the plaintiff after Fred Dicke
withdrew from the case after the trial
had started. William Bremen, former
manager of the Zulu plant was present,
coming from St. Louis to testify.
Upon motion Of District Attorney
Brady the criminal action against An
ton Pilger for non-support was dismiss
ed.
In the case Of two grandmOthers
seeking custody of child the Meyer
Warner side did not appear and Gus
tody was given to Mrs. Minnie Schroe-
der by stipulation of counsel.
Mrs. Esther White was given de-
cree of divorce against Leslie White
on the ground of desertion. Two chill
dren were given into the custody Of
the mother.
Court adjourned from day to day, but
the calendar is about cleaned up.

AhENT U. S. INCOME TAX RE TURN.

IL your income is taxable-and 1t
must be a modest one to escape taxa
tion under the War Revenue Act OF
October 3, l9l7--dou't wait to be noti-
fed that you must pay an income tax.
The government Is not required to seek
the taxpayer. The taxpayer must seek
the government. The time for filing
income and excess profits returns will
expire on April |. You may file your
return any time before that date, but
IL you wait until April 2, you are sub.
ject to fine Of not less than twenty
dollars nor more than one thousand
dollars, and an additional assessment of
fifty per cent OF the amount OF tax due.
Returns are required OF every un-
married person--man or woman
whose net income for the calendar year
1917 was one thousand dollars or more
and OF every married person whose net
income was two thousand dollars or
more, unless such income represents
salary paid by the state or political
division OF the state. The minimum
rate Of tax is two per cent, and pay
ment must be made before June Is,
1918.
You can get the blank form upon
which to render your return from

The time is here when you must
begin to think of hiring teacher for
next year. Surely don't delay until
the annual meeting, for if you do the
probability will be that you1l have no
teacher at all or will be obliged to take
some unprepared high school graduate
or a half-prepared training school stu
dent. There will be a shortage of
teachers. Other counties and cities
are already feeling this shortage and
are seeking for possible relief If you
have a good teacher do not let her
leave because of the few dollars raise
that she asks. Many a school district
has lost in education and otherwise
many times the cost of the raise to the
teacher.
You will soon be receiving applica-
tons from teachers for positions in
your school. The superintendent has
seen the work of nearly all the teachers
in the county and would be pleased to
advise you in your selection Of n teach
er for next year. Sometimes a poor
teacher attracted by the good salary
applies for a school beyond her ability
without notice to the superintendent.
The loss to your school in one year, as
a result of this teachers work, is too
great to be considered lightly. The
superintendent of course cannot be
held responsible in a case where he is
not consulted. Some teacher may do
fairly well in a small, orderly school
but may fail entirely in a larger school.
Let us work together for the benefit of
our schools.

Many teachers because of better pay,
less ardorous duties, or better physical
conditions, are planning to leave the
county for the city or elsewhere. You
know that large numbers of our young
men teachers have joined the army and
many more will go this spring. 1t is
up to the young women to take their
places and do their bit. | appeal to
your patriotism and to your sense of
duty to these country children not
to forsake the country schools at a
time when your ability and your in
huence is so much needed.
The present efficiency of our rural
schools is seriously endangered by
your desertion to possible better pay
ing or less exacting positions.
Any teacher who for various reasons
wishes to leave the profession or wishes
to change to another school, should re-
port at once TO the county superinten-
dent. 1t is to your advantage to do so.

LOCAL WAR NEWS.

The food order requiring that sales
of wheat flour must be accompanied by
an order for an equal amount OF sub

Rye flour is not substitute and other

quantities. In view of this the order
is modified locally to meet local condi-

The regular town contests in Oral
and Written Spelling, Adding, Practi-
cal Arithmetic, Language, and forty
five combinations will be held in tho
various towns within the next two
months. The various towns or groups
ofschools should hold this preliminary
contest to select the best pupils for the
county contest to be held at the Court
House on June 1, 1918.
Every teacher should encourage the
pupils to take part in these contests.
1t is not necessary that pupils entering
the contest must win. The benefits de-
rived from having taken part are many.
Not only is the pupil greatly strength
ened in the subject in which he com
peted but the test of ability shows his
relative standing as compared with
other pupils, wakes up ambition, and
gives him greater confidence in him
self.
Teachers should keep in mind that a
few minutes practise regularly every
day from September until spring ac-
complishes much more than few
weeks practise just before the contest.
Inquiries into methods used by teach
ers who have had winners in the coun-
ty contest will show that they began to
get ready early.
A forty minute literary program
should be prepared. Better few toetl
prepared parts than q long uninter-
esting program. Also keep in mind to
teach the pupils taking part to talk
much louder than when speaking in
class, for the halls where the contests
are held are large and somewhat noisy.
The following teachers will call a
meeting of the teachers in their respect
i've towns and act as chairmen. Ar
rangements for the contest should be
made at this meeting Please call tho
meeting at some central point easily
accessible to all the teachers.
