EarIiest Form of Sf,nas.

The earliest shoes known were SAN
dals of hide. leather or wood. When
one encounters the word 'sshoe" in the
Bible he may be sure that it is the
sandal that Is commonly meant. In
Egypt the sauGal was woven of palm
leaves and papyrus. As a symbol of
the subsection of their enemies the
Egyptians often painted the figures of
their opponents on the lining Of their
sandals.

WISCONSIN WILL
ELECT SENATOR
Successor to Senator Hust-
ing Will Be Chosen on
April 2
- AssocIated Press.l

Madison, Wis, Feb. Ex-Governor
Philip, of Wisconsin, last night
called a. special election for April 2
to choose a United States senator to
fill the vacancy caused by the death
of Paul o. Husting last October. In
a statement the governor declared
that he called the election against
his will and that responsibility for
the election rested upon propaganda
lists who carried on q campaign for
1t. Governor Philip said he was Of
the opinion that the best interests Of
the people Of the state demanded
that an election be not called at this
time to fill the vacancy caused by
the death of Senator Husting. He
said that he believed that the posi-
ton should be filled by appointment
at this time and that the people
would be in a better position next
fall to select a successor to the late
Senator Husting, after thorough
canvass had been made of available
and the stand each took
on the present war situation was
better understood. Governor Philip
called attention to the fact that the
a assembly acted in favor of special
election by an overwhelming vote,
and that while the state senate acted
against it, he felt it his duty to an
swer the summons OF the assembly,
as representing the majority Of the
people OF the state.
The statement clearly pointed out
that had the governor been given the
appointiVe power, he would have
named Representative Lenroot to
the position. The belief was express
ed I'm political circles after the issu-
ance Of the statement that Repre-
sentative Lenroot win not be a can
didate at the special election. Other
who are said to be con-
sidered for the Office are Assembly
man G. ID. Rosa, Of Beloit; Senator
Plat Whitman, former Governor

allowed to 90 within 5000 yards Of
the front unless he Is equipped
with one Of the gas masks.

IL man is wounded during an en-
gagement, he is kept in the trench
or parapet until nightfa1I and then
carried back to the hospitals through
the different lines Of communicn-
ton" He said 1t would be- too dan
gerous to remove the wounded IN
daylight. He spoke OF the glorious
times that the soldiers have during
the four days leave of trench duty
when they go to the duE-outs which
are out Of the range Of the field guns.
He said the worst thing TO fear at
the front is the gas a nd not
the bullets. He stated that the
presence of chloride OF lime In
everywhere and that 1t is used ex-
tensively in the drinking water In
the trenches. Vermin were also
troublesome when he was at the
front.
Major Forth said that there are a
few supermen in the world and he
said President Woodrow Wilson was
one of them and Lloyd George an
other-men who use their hearts as
we'll as their heads.
Proud Of the United States.

Of the good times that the soldiers

hours and days at the front.

what these necessities mean 10 the

in France and good tobacco is hard

in France and good tobacco is hard
to get.
There are so many things that
the soldier likes that l cannot take
the time to enumerate. Photograph
records are appreciated, and the
soldiers love snapshots. You must
remember that they cannot send you
any photographs, but snapshots from
home are tonics, and letters-oh, /
would like to put that first.
1T is pathetic to see some get let
ters and others watch day after day
for mail and to be disappointed each
time. The soldier who does not get
letter is like a kid at a birthday
party who has to wear an old dress.
Judge Young Presided,
Judge N. G. Young presided and in
introducing Major Forth said that
when the kaiser and his cohorts set
out to whip the world, the first ma
ton to lay down its life to stop the
hordes was brave Belgium; next
heroic France, and then Great Brit
ian the nation that never quits, and
with her came her colonies-Aus-
tralia, South Africa and our sister,
Canada. He said the brave boys of
Canada were there at the beginning
of the war and that they viii be
there at the end of the war.
Bishop John Poyntz Tyler gave the
