LIFE INSURANCE
A Four Minute Talk by r. s. Kellogg
Formerly OF Wausan

The Government of the United States
has asked me to talk to you this even
ing on the question of insurance. not
IRE insurance nor tornado insurance
out lie nsurance-insurance of the
lives OF American men in Russia, in
France, in Italy and on the high seas
insurance that increases MANY times

OF your friend and neighbor will come
pack safely from the inferno fired bv
the Huns, and insurance that when he
does come back the world will be Civ
en- the only possible answer to the
challenge of the Potsdam gang. That
is the answer given to Bulgaria-un-
conditional surrender.

autocrats whom we are fighting have
never hesitated to sacrifice their men

wire and concrete with hundreds of
airplanes overhead. No matter what II
costs we would rather pay the bill this
way than with the lives of our men.
The first twenty-four hours of
large scale drive on a ten mile front
costs million dollars an hour. There
are used over 1000 guns ranging from
three to ten inch and firing 700, 600
shells while 100000 cartridges are
shot in rifles, automatics and machine
guns, But they cut the wire. blow up
gun emplacements, wipe out enemy
reinforcements, and enable our men
TO sweep forward with comparatively
few casualties. We believe in this
kind of life insurance and our dollars
are going to say so.
Then there is another kind of life
Insurance for our boys. The death
rate from disease in the American
Army at home and abroad is only s
per 1000 men or one-sixth of what il
was in the Civil War and less than

ever assembled and your dollars. and

Time and again we hear from our
boys on the other side whose oniy

COLONEL BIRDS son

1t will seem like good old times
again to have a Bird figure in Wis
consin public affairs. For nearly half
a century Colonel George w. Bird
played an honorable and upriglt part
in the civic concerns of the common
wealth, then, in the fullness of years,
deeply regretted, passed on, leaving a
memory most respected. Now there is
every prospect of worthy son, Claire
b. Bird, appearing in the legislature.
To him has come the senatorial nom
ination in the Wausau district, and his
election, considering his high charac-
ter and large abilities, must seem
probable. Mr.. Bird, like his father, is
a lawyer, and, like him again, man
of independence and courage. This
capital which knew Colonel Bird so
long and so affectionately, would well
come, not without special cordially
and approval, the e9grossment of his
sons name on the legislative roll and
hope for him yet higher honors in
Office life.-Editorial Madison Demo-

HEINz's GREAT COLLECTION
ivory Carvings Owned by Pittsburgher
Are Declared 20 Be Almost
Priceless.

During many years Fl. J. Heinz of
Pittsburgh has gathered together one
Of the finest collections of ivory cary-
ings in America. There ore PROBABLY
dozen notable collections of this
sort in the country, and among them
the Heinz group of 1900 pieces holds
distinguished rank, says writer In
Scribners.
AS rich and fascinating field for
discriminating collector, ivory carv-
ings are perhaps without a peer. Exc
euted in a material that has always
been costly, too rare, as a rule, to be
subjected to poor or mediocre work
manship, they may wei be considered
as typical of the artistic development
of the time in which they were pro-
duced. They represent the art, more
over, not of one people, of one period,
but, 1t is scarcely an exaggeration to
say, of all peoples and all periods.
From prehistoric ages down through
the civilizations of Egypt and Assyria
and of classic Greece and Rome have
come priceless examples of sculptured
worries. The dark ages of Europe, so
meager in artistic treasures. have be-
queathed us an unbroken chain OF
ivory carvings. Much of the most in
teres!irg of such work must be accred-
ited to the centuries of the Gothic re-
vival, the thirteenth, fourteenth and
fifteenth. The Renaissance and the
centuries succeeding have yielded a
wealth of carved worries OF great rich
ness and beauty. From India, China
and Japan come worries of deep his
toric interest and especially III the
work Of Japan, of genuine artistic
achievement.
Periods Of exceptional turbulence,
such as the fall of Constantinople, the
reformation in England and the French
revolution, have caused the destruction
of Incompatible treasures. That sc
much has survived seems cause for
wonder. The explanation lies liz the
very nature Of the carvings.

Election takes place two weeks from
tomorrow. Up to date there has been
very little excitement on political
lines, the voters having been kept
busy on the Liberty Loan and the in
tiuenza. 1t will be well for the voter
to stop and consider what he should
do on November 9Th. There is only
one thing to do, ana that is vcte for
men whom you think will best serve
the state and county in the present
trying times of our country. You will
not be doing your duty if you do not
give your assistance in placing good
and capable men in office.
The Pilot desires to impress upon
the voters of Wausau and Marathon
county, that Claire B. Bird is candi-
date for state senator for Marathon
and Langlade counties.
Mr.. Bird, as all know, did not seek
this nomination but was induced to
allow his name to go on the ticket at
the primaries. He was nominated by
an overhauling vote; the democrats
have not placed candidate in the
field against him. He has opposition
a socialist.
Further, Mr.. Bird, as all know, never
has undertaken to do a thing without
giving it his very best efforts; he has
never neglected anything placed in his
charge, whether of vital Importance
or otherwise. If elected, and we hope
he will be, his friends are sure of
this: That he will give every moment

the legislative needs of his district
Knowing this and of his ability to
handle the most difficult problems.
which may arise; knowing that he
will be a credit to his district, which
includes Marathon and Langlade coun-
ties, will it not be a great mistake
not to elect him? Elect Mr.. Bird and
let the vote be unanimous.
