Turn Your Cash Into
Gun Fire

We fought and won the Spanish
war with 10000 soldiers and a
5000, 100000 bond issue. In men
under arms we now have ten times
that amount of bonds in the first
Liberty loan. We are proposing
to spend and loan to the allies in the
first fiscal year of the war $19,-
O,OOO,OO0. From now until the
end of the fiscal year the treasury
anticipates needing $30O,000,000
a week-that is, the treasury has
got to fight financially Spanish
war every four days. That indicates
money measure of the size of this
work, but that is not the real meas
ure. We have just seen that one
might have plenty of money, but
an empty coal bin. In just the same
way the government can have plenty
of money, but e, unequipped army.
This army CAM be equipped as
modern warfare emands if the man
power of the &C .atry is at the same
time called upon to produce all Of
our ordinary comforts and luxuries.
1t is as plain as two and two that all
Of US must make personal sacrifices.
must give up comforts and luxuries,
even necessary expenditures that can
be postponed, if there is to be labor
and material enough to equip the
army in time for it to fight while it
will do some good to have it fight.
In, war the only effort that is Of
any value is that which is ultimate
ly translated into gun fire on the
field Of battle. The gun fire that
will win this war cannot be deliver
ed until all America recognizes in
dividual responsibility, until the
whole people join in the effort by
giving up things that they can do
without, 80 that the labor that would
have been employed in making those
things can do work that will ulti-
|astsly result in gun fire. The gov
Arnment has offered the opportunity
to translate at once every ones per-
sonal patriotism into the sort Of help
that win win the wan Forego buy
ing something that il unnecessary;

to the government by buying S. war

have released labor, you viii have

guidance part Of the report OF
Prof. Clarke as follows:
Sunday, March 18, 1917, the
Denver Union Water Company an
nounced that as its part in the great
national food production and conser-
vation campaign, it would give free
water to all of its customers in Den

into a vegetable garden; that it
would establish a vegetable garden
department and that it had arranged
with myself to take charge Of its gar
den work.
"The vegetable garden department

self in charge, Miss Maud Walter as
clerk and stenographer, and Mrs.
Martha A. Shute and G. F. Went

"In all, the Water company issued
1921 permits for vacant lot gardens.
This. was in addition and entirely
separte from the 1922 paid water
licenses issued in the usual way.

sides this, probably two-thirds Of the
30,122 paid water licenses provided
for garden irrigation. in back yards
or elsewhere. Those who took pains
to observe estimated that there were
more than 5000 dry land gardens
in the city. So in I'll it was esti-
mated by those, best able to judge
that there wereamore than 10000
gardens in Denver last summer. This

My dear Mr.. Flowers:
! It has been on my mind for some
time to thank your organization for
the very real help it has given to
EAmerica in the struggle that il con-
rned with every fundamental ele-
: kent Of national life. Your
speakers, going from community to
community, meeting people in the
friendly spirit engendered by years
Of intimate and understanding con-
tact, have been. effective messengers
f1f the delivery and intezprstation
Of democracy's meaning. and imper-
ative needs. The work that the
Chautauqua is doing has not lost
Importance because Of war, but ra-
ther has gained new opportunities
for service.
Let me express the hope that you
will let no encouragement weaken
your activities, and that the people
will not fail in the support of a pa
triotic institution that may be- said
to be an integral part of the nation
al defense.
Cordially and sincerely yours,
WOODROW WILSON.

BADGER MAPLE TREES
HELP OUT SUGAR SUPPLY

Wisconsin has one source of sugar
supply that may still be developed.
Wherever sugar maple, black maple,
or red maple is to be found there is a
supply of maple syrup awaiting the
man who has tools to obtain it.
Now is the time to tap naples, for
the season is here when the thermom-
eter is well above freezing in the day
time. Tapping is comparatively
simple operation. A desirable spot on
the tree trunk is brushed off and a
hole is bored about three-eights of an
inch in diameter and two inches deep
The size depends upon the age and
vitality of the tree, for only the outer
layers of the tree yield sap, and it
is useless to bore beyond the outside
layers.
A wooden or iron spout is then
inserted in the hole and a bucket hung
upon it to catch the sap. If the sugar
BUSH is limited to the naples on the
lawn or in windbreak, watching the
buckets and emptying them at the
right time, is a good JOB for the boys
and girls. In a larger bush, one or
more men may be kept busy when the
sap is running freely.
Syrup and sugar are obtained by
boiling the large amount of water out
of the sap. The old-fashioned iron
kettle may be used out-of-doors, the
feed cooker may De pressed into SER
vice, or, if only a small amount OF
sap is caught, the kitchen stove will
be big enough for the boiling down.

FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY

The fiftieth anniversary, or golden
jubilee, of the founding of the Benevo-
lent and Protective Order of Elks was
commemorated by Wausau Lodge No.
24S, B. P. o. E., last Thursday evening,
for the occasion had been arranged
for. L. A. Pradt, IAN old timer" and
Past Exalted Ruler, presided. Hon.
M. K. Reilly of Fond du Lac and o. R.
Roenius of Grand Rapids, the latter,
past state president, were out of town
guests of the local order.
Music was rendered by the Elk's or
chestra, and vocal selections given by
Max YELLOW and w. I. LaCerte. The
music was mostly along the patriotic
line.
L. A. Pradt, in his brief address,
stated that the Wausau lodge of Elks
was organized twenty-five years ago,
and at that time had membership of
eighteen, and three of those mem
bers were present at Thursday nights
meeting, Walter Alexander, Frank
Dana and Mr.. Pradt He also told
of the pioneer days of Elkdom in
Wausau in most interesting way.
Hon. M. K. Reilly paid beautiful
tribute to the golden anniversary OBJ
servance of the founding of Elkdom
and also talked on the present world
war. He told how our ships and citi-
zens had been attacked on the high
seas by German submarines, and how
we had warned Germany that if this
was to be continued diplomatic rela-
lions would be severed with that
country. The deadly work was con-
tinued and Germany went so far that
our country was forced into the ter
rible struggle. Mr.. Reilly also men
toned the senatorial election, which
is soon to come off, and he is in hopes
that Wisconsin will demonstrate he1
loyalty at this time more than ever
before, bringing satisfactory result
which will speed the war along, anG
also show our Wisconsin boys, who
have gone to the front, that Wisconsin
is THE LOYAL STATE. Mr.. Reilly's
address was one of the most eloquent
ever given before the local order Of
Elks.
Otto Roenius, past president of the
state association of Elk lodges, gave
a stirring address on Elkdom. He ex
planned in a most earnest way Wha
this order is for, and stated it is fol
the same principles as those for which
our beloved country is fighting for to-
brotherhood of men. Mr.. Roen
Jus urged that all Elks live I'D to thu
above, which would mean the same
as do all the good you can, for al
the people you can, in all the way!

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE war

untary enlistment in the army pend
ing action on the new draft age
proposals. includes prohibition on
the issuance Of any COMMISSIONS in
any branch of the army that was
not in process of issue when the or
der twas signed. Secretary Baker
made this clear in answer to ques-
tions adding that application for a
commission would not be regarded
as emitting the applicant to eXcep-
ton from the order.
The only exception now probable,
Mr.. Baker said, had to do with some
400 men specially sought out for
commissions in the engineer corps
and who had already been recon-
mended for such commissions. It
was made clear that no enlisted
man, now at training camp is in
any way blocked from obtaining a
commission by the new order, which
does not affect them.

Gains OF Great Value.

With The British Army In France,
Aug. 13.-Ground gained by the al
lies armies in the second battle Of
the Somme is being held by them ev-
erywhere today, although they
have been pausing for more than "a
hours. The harassed and disorgan-
lied forces OF the enemy have
launched several counter attacks
but none of them have carried the
Germans anywhere.
AS a matter Of fact the small, but
nevertheless important local gain
made by the allies just north OF the
Somme river, to say nothing of 9TH
er successful minor operations for
proving positions more than trebly
outweigh the extremely slight gains
made by the Germans at a heavy
cost at two points in the line.
Strong enemy concentrations have
been reported between Roye and
Foquescourt, but so far they have
done nothing. In the northern bat
tie area, especially in the Bray
region, new enemy defensive barbed
wire has been found while earth
works are being constructed at sew
.eraI places behind the German line.
Morlancourt is being heavily
shelled, while the enemy, with aerial
bombs, mas apparently attempted 10
blow up the ammunition dumps he
left. in his hurry to get away. British
and French guns have been busy to-
day pounding German rear areas,
and the crossings over the Somn1e.
Enemy shells that are coming in
are being fired at an extreme range
probably from well on the other side
of the somme This is especially
true of shells aimed at the districts
south Of Amiens- Nesle road.
Between the Ancre and the Somne
the operations of the British which
resulted in a small material advance
and the capture of enemy positions,
provoked only a scattered Smelling
from field guns
British airplanes continued to drop
tons oil shells ON the enemy, es-
pecialIy in the neighborhood of
Peronne. Enemy transports are also
suffering from the British bonabers.
