held at the Odd Fellows build
ing, one door east of the Post

Manager Madden, and there will
be on display produce from the
gardens of the Boys and Girls
Garden Club, and the exhibit
ought to be one that will open the
eyes of the people who attend it.
Some of the boys and girls
have been making wonderful
showings in their garden work
and this exhibit will show in a
way what they have done.
In order to add interest and to
have the children bring in their
exhibits the business men of
Washburn have very generously
donated a large number of prizes
and these will be awarded to the
children having the best gardens
and the best display of exhibits.
A canning demonstration will
in all probability be held in con
nection with the exhibit and
people Of the city and surround
ing territory are invited to at

of garden work.
Manager Madden says the
crops are some of the finest
grown and the exhibit ought to
prove to be a wonderful show
ing.

Miss Mollie Baardson, q sister of
Mrs. Johnson, residing at Benden-
vile this state, was also present at
the funeral.
The death of Mr.. Frank Johnson
is particularly sad as it is the
second death that has occurred in
the Johnson family in less than two
weeks time, the body of Clyde, q
son. having been brought to this
city from the west less than two
weeks ago.
The family left this city about six
weeks ago in their touring car for
tour of the west and where they
expected to locate IN the hope of
improving the health OF the mem
bers OF the family who were i'll and
since arriving in the west two of
the family have passed away. Mr..
Johnson died from hemorl hage
while riding along in the car befors

Women's Council Notes

The theory that the play instinct,
innate in every child, and the de
sire and volition to play, makes it
unnecessary for child to be taught
to play, is an exploded one. Geo.
f. Johnson formerly OF Pittsburg,
says: "A boy no more inherits base
ball than he inherits the Lord S
Prayer. What a boy does inherit
is an instinct for throwing. just as
a bird inherits an instinct for silg-
ing but not the song. When this
instinct. is not supervised what
happens? Some boys were arrested
and brought to trial in the juvenile
court. They had thrown st0nes at
moving passenger cars in a ravine
below them. in common with other
Boys, they had the instinct for
throwing but it was not supervised.
III it had been, these boys would
have been in the base ball field and
ball throwing would have taken
place of stone throwing
The records of the Juvenile courts
throughout the country furnish
numberless records of misdirected
instincts and energies misdirected
because there has not been sup
eryision to show boys and girls
how their energies may be made to
count for "team work." for honor,
for life, for efficiency.
A ''square deal' for the children
even at the expense of time. money
and thought Let us have play
grounds, but let us have over then
the personalities which VIII make
the instruments and machinery al
hand a means to an end-not an enc
| in themselves which will transform
the whole system into something
vital, and translate it into terms O
life.

Decide Upon Date of Sunday,
August 31st
Big Affair Will be Held at the Kinney
Grove on Lake Shore South of
the City

The farmers of the three
towns of Bayview, Barksdale
and Washburn will hold their
first community picnic on Sum
day, August 31st. This date
was decided upon at a meeting
held at the Commercial Club in
this city on Monday at which
representatives of the three
towns were present and it is to
be the biggest affair of the kind
ever held in this region.
Committees were appointed to
arrange for the picnic and in
this they are having the CO.
operation of County Agent v.
E. Brubaker, who is planning
for program and demonstra-
tion in connection.
A general invitation isextend-
ed to the farmers and their
families of the three towns to
attend and an invitation is also
extended to the business inter-
ests of Washburn to join in the
picnic and make it a big COM
munity affair. Those attending
are requested to bring their
baskets filled with lunch and
refreshments and come during
the morning, prepared to stay
all day.
! In connection with the picnic
there will be a demonstration OF
T N 7 powder in charge of a
University expert as we'll as
talks on farming, cooperation
and other subjects.
The picnic will be held at the
Kinney grove which is located
on the lake shore south of the
city, about a half mile below the
box factory. 1t is an ideal spot
for holding picnics.

Is Merchant Now

Postmaster John O'Sullivan is
acting in a new role, that of gen.
eral merchant for the United
States government in the sale OF
army food stuffs. Mr.. O'Sulli
vAn is not like ether merchants
in that he does not have to
worry whether customers come,
but he is prepared to wait on all
comers. Already he has received
a mum Der Of orders for govern
ment goods and they will begin
arriving in the course of few
days. The government prices
are below other prices but it is
hit and miss what brand you are
getting. Lists of the articles
for sale may be seen at the post
Office, together with price list of
same.

FARMERS HAVE
The RIGHT idea
Bayview Farmers Believe in Coop
GRAFTON to the Limit
Have Purchased a Community Threshipg
Outfit for Use on Their
Farms

When it comes to cooperation
the farmers of the town of Bay
view are willing to go the limit
as has been demonstrated the
past week when the farmers of
that prosperous town dubbed
together and purchased what is
known as community thresh-
ing outfit for use on the farms
of that town.
This is not a proposition where
one farmer owns more stock
than does his neighbor but
where everyone went into the
proposition on an equal basis,
taking alike amount Of stock,
there being a total of forty
three members in the club.
The Town of Bayview owns a
tractor which they have agreed
to rent to the club at so much
per day for man and machine
while the threshing outfit will
be in charge of Andrew Maunu,
who is a member Of the club,
and the farmers of the Bayview
township who are members of
the club will not have to depend
on outside labor and machines
to have their grains threshed.
The. Bayview farmers have
the right idea as to. cooperation
and if they are willing to co
operate on things Of this kind
they will cooperate on other
propositions. You can bank on
it that they will succeed.

TuEerculin Test Free

After some hard work and disap
pointments, Mr.. V. E. Brubaker
has completed the work of getting
sufficient signers to petitions which
will get all cattle over six months
Of age tested for tuberculosis free

that if one have of the stock owners
of any county in Wisconsin sign a
petition asking for this test, all
cattle of that, county will receive
the test free of charge and the test
will be made by veterinarian
provided by the state.
Bayfield, county is third in number
to file such petitions, Waukesha
being first and Barron second.
The following letter received
from the state will tell what action
will be taken 10 this matter by the
state officials.
Mr.. V. K. Brubaker,
County Agricultural Agent,
Washburn, Wisconsin,
Dear Sir:
In reply to yours OF the 28th will
say that it is our intention to con-
mence work both in Barron and
Bayfield, Counties as soon as we can
procure the necessary help, and i
is certainly our intention to cover
the first survey this fall.
Very truly yours,

Barney is Home

"Barney Oldfield" Borggren
returned during the past week
from Michigan and Wisconsin
points where he visited during
the past week. Herb made the
tribin his National "Tiger Cat
and from the story told he
had the "Bear Cat" beat mile
when it came to speed. Bar
ney" was cutting her loose a bit
Oh the fine roads in Michigan
when his companion noticed a
speed cop was after them. 1t
was either case of slow up and
face a fifty fine or get out of the
way and the latter course was
decided on. The race was on for
fair and the speed Of both ma
chimes began climbing up until
they reached more sban eighty
miles per hour with Borggl
still in the lead. The distance
to cover before reaching the
Wisconsin line was about forty
five miles and as the Wisconsin
state was coming nearer the
speed cop saw the trick and en-
deavored to overtake the speeder
before he could cross the line.
Likewise did Borggren make up
his mind to gec away and he
pressed down the gas lever a
notch farther until his speed
was over SO miles per honsand
he crossed the line just notch
ahead of the shear cat. There
was curve in the road after
reaching Wisconsin and this
Borggren could not make with

both tires were blown out and
both wheels were smashed off.

was not in such bad shape but
that he was offered a good price

Upon catching up with Borg

his wonderment that both men
were not killed and he then
wanted to know what kind of a
car it was. He said that he was
supposed to have the fastest car
in the northern peninsula but
that Borggren's had him beat

To Distribute 7 N 7

County Agent Brubaker says
that the State University has
decided to allot to Bay field conn-
ty 10000 pounds of TN Il
powder for demonstration pur-
poses and farmers desiring
same should make application
to his Office. This powder will
be given out in lots of 100 pounds
or less and the price to be paid
for same will be about $1,000
per 100 pounds.
The state has hcen carrying
on demonstrations with this
powder and they have found
that it is as safe to handle as
dynamite and the results OBJ
tanned have been good, while
5he price is abou, one-half.
The U. S. government had a
large supply Of L N Il on hand
when the war ended and this is
being allotted to the different
states where it is being re-
worked for land clearing pur-
poses.

Why he Came Back

4 mum ber Of p@ople, reading
in the local papers the past weeh
that Rev. George Waters had
left on ID flying trip to Eng land
have been wondering why he
freturned SO soon, and Rev.
| Waters says that it was through
/ 40 fault of his own that his
journey across the pond was
given up.
Before planning his trip.
which was for The purpose of
getting his mother-in-law, who
resides in London, and bringing
her to the United States, he
took all necessary precautions
Of first securing lis passports
from the United States govern
nent. This was only done after
dlllng out lengthy documents in
which his family history and
other data was given, together
with the purpose Of the trip,
.,nd the passports finely came
along, signed by Secretary Lam
sing.
Wlh these document in hand
Rev. Waters started out on his
j)urney and got as far as Chica-
go where he learned that it
would also be necessary for him
10 have bis passports approved
by the British Couns u at that
place before he could proceed to
Ills destination and return.
This did not jlbe very well
with s'freedom of the seas" as
the Peace Treaty calls for as
the United States government
did not seem to be the only
country having the say over the
travel of it's citizens, especially
when it is to foreign lands. So
Rev. Waters applied for the ap-
proval of his passport before
the British Consul and learned
that it would be necessary for
him to remain at least six
months in England before the
approval would be granted, and
ibis he refused TO agree to do.
He returned home again the
first Of the week and immediate
ly wired Washington the status
of the case and after lot of
correspondence the British Con-
sui at Chicago will probably
agree to let Iilm travel TO Eng
land even though he does not
care to remain there only a
week at the most.
Rev. Waters says that Eund-
reds of other American citizens
were in the same predicament,
and only learned upon arriving
at Chicago that they could not
go to England without agreeing
10 remain at least six months.

Many New Faces Will be Seen
Among Teaching Force
Announcement of School Opening is
Made by City Superintendent
c. E.'Hulten

The pubic Scn0OlS OF the clCy
of Washburn will open on Tues
day, September second. The
school building owned by the st.
Louis congregation has been
leased and will again be used as
a public school. 1t has been re-
decorated throughout and toilets
have been installed in the base
ment. All the school buildings
have been equipped with fire
extingaishers en- each floor and
the exits of the Walker and
Garfield schools have been pro-
vided with fire exit latches. The
janitors are at work cleaning
the buildings and every one will
be in first class condition when
school opens.
Some section of all the grades
up to and including the fifth
will be taught in every building
but the Walker. At the Lincoln
and st. Louis schools the sixth
and lower seventh grades will
be taught. Parents are request
ed to send their children to the
nearest building where the
child's grade is taught.
The upper seventh and the
EIGHT grades VII be housed in
the Walker school and will con-
stitute the Junior High School.
The courses of study for these
grades have been modified. and
the pupil will be promoted by
subject instead of by grade as
heretofore.
All children between the ages
of seven and fourteen must at
tend school. Children between
the ages of fourteen and sixteen
must attend school unless they
are legally and regularly en-
pIoyed. 1t is important that
children enter school the first
day of the school year and con-
tinue in regular attendance. No
other method will give the child
a fair chance to keep up with
his grade.
