in the artillery corps of the First

TO HELP US.
LABOR BUREAU
Efforts Will Be Made To Insure
Positions For Returning
Army and Navy
Boys

John T. Doran. of the q. S. Employ
ment Service, Department of Labor
was IN Ladysmith yesterday after
noon and in the evening was present al
a meeting held at the Chamber OF
Commerce to discuss the matter OF
making some arrangement to coop
crate locally with the federal employ
ment bureau in seeing that every re
turning soldier finds suitable employ
mcnt available for him when he leaves
the nations service
Mr.. Doran is located at Chippewa
Falls and the labor Office there has
supervision over Rusk, Chippewa, Bar.
ron and Clark counties.
The meeting was attended by several
of the principal employers of labor III
Ladysmith and the consensus of Opin-
ion was that every soldier or sailor re-
turning TO Rusl county should and
would find plenty of employment avail
able, without maintaining an expen-
sive office here. 1t was agreed, how
ever. that there was need of some
place where positions open to return
ing boys could be registered and where
the boys could easily ascertain what
employment was open TO them and also
register their names for employment.
The scope of this work goes further,
of course, than merely to see that Rusll
county boys who have left their jobs to
take up arms for the nation or engage
nf ,i/.N
Go not lack suitable employment when
the nation no longer needs them for
the common defense.
A great many of the Rusk county
boys came from the farms and they
are badly needed there as soon as they
can be released from the service.
Others will return to school or college
and with the existing shortage OF labor
here, which has been acute the past
fall. it ought to be very easy to secure
Rusk county lads. Some, however,
will be trained for better jobs than
they held before and there will be other
sections, perhaps, where employment
will not be plentiful. Through coop
Grafton with the government employ
ment service with the various localities
these problems should work out salts
factorily to all concerned.
The NewS-Budget has undertaken to
take care OF this work for Rusk c0un-
ty and if we can be of service to the
lads who have risked their life and
health for us we will be amply repaid
for the effort in satisfaction.
Persons or concerns in Rusk county
desiring of employing returning soldier
boys are requested to file at this office
their names, addresses, number OF
men wanted at present, estimate OF
future requirements, nature of ser
VICES, wages offered and probable dura-
ton of work.
Further publicity of the details of
this work will be given next week.

has attracted the attention of highway
engineers throughout the country and
at the recent Road Congress at Chi
cago, the paper of State Highway En-
gineer Hirst on Wisconsin's road
marking and maintenance was the joy
note paper of the sessions.
The year 1919 will see far more inn
than any year in it's history. Approx
imately $7,000,000 will be spent on
highway construction. On the State
Trunk Highway System slightly over
$1000,000 will be spent, on grading,
draining and top-soiling of 237 miles
be spent on construction 153 miles OF
gravel road. An equal amount will be
spent on building 50 miles of concrete
road, and about 100000 on building 4
miles Of stone macadam road, a total
of $3,213,O00 In addition to that
$1,000,000 of State Aid money will be
utilized for contraction on the State
Highway System, as provided in the
law. The State Aid construction will
run approximately $2,500,000.
The feature of next year, however,
as it was of this year, will be main
tenance. Estimates made at this time
indicate that S2660,000 will be spent
on the maintenance of Wisconsin high
ways next year. OF this $1,450,000 will
be spent on the patrol maintenance 'Of
the State Trunk Highway System.
The patrol maintenance has worked
out so well this year that q number of
counties have decided to put patrol
maintenance ON their secondary or
State Aid roads, and have voted ap-
proximately $675,00 for that purpose.
In addition to that 259o of the state
automobile license fees will be re-
turned to the counties for the mainten-
ance of their county highways, amount
ing to about $540,000.
Taking it all in ALL Wisconsin has
had highly satisfactory year in road
improvement resulting from its patrol
maintenance and road-marking. Road
improvements were never more fixed
in the public eye than in the year 1918.
Another new factor is looming up
for the coming year. In many coun-
ties, especially in the southern and
eastern part of the state road traffic
has become so intensive, large in vol
ume and heavy in character brought on
by the use of the motor surfaced roads,
similar to those in Milwaukee county.
The cost of these roads is so high that
it would not be feasible to build them
out of taxation from year to year.
They must be built by the counties is
suing bonds and making future gener-
ations pay for the roads from which
they will derive benefit. The state
of Illinois has just decided to bond it
self for $6O,000,000, for road construc-
ton: Minnesota is about to start a
500, 100000 bond issue campaign.
Michigan and Indiana are discussing
the matter seriously. Wisconsin cam
not bond itself because of a constitu-
tional provision. The only way to
meet the problem in this state is to
have the counties bond themselves
and build roads which will carry their
traffic and endure,

to thoroughly Intricate the myriad network
OF cords, tendons, nerves and muscles just
beneath the skin Of the abdomen.

tract naturally after baby arrives and the
form Is thus preserved.

Ing, during the period OF expectancy. By
regular use it enables the abdomen to ex-
pand without the usual strain when baby

Horrible Accident
Saturday Afternoon
Citizen Of Upper End of Coun-
ty Killed By Heavy Auto
Truck Near His Home.

A deplOrable accident happened in
the upper end Of Greene county
about noon Saturday, which cost the
life of one of the good citizens Of
that section.
Mr.. 0rville Moore, aged so years,
was run over by the heavy auto truck
of Mr.. John Bohannon, of Greene
vile. Mr.. Bohannon had been to
Kingsport and was returning to
Greeneville with load of cement
when he met Mr.. Moore in the road
near Union Temple, and within about
five hundred yards Of his home. Mr..
Moore was riding horseback and both
he and Mr.. Bohannon left the road,
as is usually the custom, but after
Mr.. Moore had apparently passed the
car, his horse sprang suddenly, rared
back and threw him directly under
the rear wheels of the heavy truck,
which passed over his body. Mr.. Be-
harmon stopped the truck as quickly
as possible and went back to the in
jured man. He was conscious and
did not seem to realize that he was
seriously hurt, insisting that he want
ed to be lifted to his feet and go
home. Mr.. Bohannon told him that
he was possibly hurt worse than he
thought for, and sent for his wife and
little children, only a short distance
away. He was carried to his home
and medical assistance called from
Greeneville. He lived about five
hours. He leaves a wife and three
small children.
Mr.. Bohannon is almost Frustrated
over the unfortunate affair. There
can certainly be no blame laid at his
hands for the sad accident, as he took
every precaution possible to avoid the
mishap. He has the sympathy Of ev-
cry one over the unfortunate affair.
