Weather And Crop Conditions in Wis.

Warm, dry, sunny weather during
the entire week was ideal for harvest
ing, and the ground moisture being
generally sufficient, all growing crops
made rapid advancement Conditions
were especially favorable for corn, to-
bacco, sugar bects, and fruits. Some
sections report potatoes in excellent
condition, while Others report consider
able damage from too rank growth of
the tops. The leaf hopper has caused
much damage to potatoes in limited
areas, while the potato bug has caused
considerable injury over a large area.
The harvest of spring wheat and oats
is under way and that of winter wheat,
rye. and barley is nearing completion.
In general, the warm, dry weather has
caused too rapid ripening ~ small
grains and in some sections rust has
caused more or less damage to wheat
and oats All sections report corn as
unusually well advanced for the sea
son. nearly everywhere being past the
tusscling stage Rain is needed in many
localities. particularly for pastures and
corn. H. b. IlERSEG,
Section Director.

But (there'S always but) one

scrape the bristles off our chins. Those
who are afraid to use the good old

by Mr.. Gillett, Mr. Eyerready and 9th

SIXTY-SEVENTH ANNIVERSARY

Today and tomorrow, St. James par
ish will celebrate the 9th anniversary
of the LAYING of the corner stone of the
first Parish church. St. James PARISH
is the oldest in point of continuous eX-
istence as an organized church. Al
thought its history dates back to the
early 3O's St. James did not become a
parish till 1851. The 9th anniversary
will he commemorated with special
Eyensong and sermon by the Rev. l..
b. Hastings, former rector, this even
ing at 1880. This service will be fol-
lowed by a social in the guild hall at
which refreshments will be served. \
cordial invitation is extended to Inc
public. On Friday morning there will
be two celebrations of the Holy Com
munion at 1880 and 900.
The following committees are in
charge of the celebration; Reception,
The Nestry and their wives. Refresh
ments, Mrs. Reynolds, Mrs. Cooper and
Mrs. Pankratz. Entertainment, Mrs.
Baensch, Mrs. Paulus and Mrs. Small
ley. Flowers and decorations, Mrs.
Nyhagen, Mrs. Esta Herzog, Mrs.
Holly and Miss Robinson.

The council met in regular session.
O'Donnell and Sladkey were the only
absentees. The official minutes are
published on another page.
City fremen demand more pay. They
want an increase of 25 per cent. They
seem to be in earnest when they say
that if they don't get it at once from
the city they can easily get more else
where. 1t was referred to a commit
tee but the sentiment seemd to be that
the city will have to do something
toward giving both fremen and police
men increases.
There was general informal dis
cussion of the numerous violations of
traffic rules and the police were in
structed to go out and make arrests
right and left of yiolatorS of the or
dnances respecting mufflers and dim
mers.
A lot of sewers and sidewalks were
ordered to be constructed.
Among the claims allowed were
claims for street oil totaling over 81,

The treasurer reported SlO9,466.95
on hand.
In the matter of the leasing of the
west side park to a medicine vendor
which caused big debate at the last
meeting the city attorney had an opn-
ion orlc ruling that there is nothing to
prohibit the proper municipal officers
from leasing the ground for this pur-
pose. 1t seems that consent of the
council is necessary which the circus
last week had but which the doctor"
did not have.
The council voted to have the engi-
neer make soundings in the upper river
to ascertain the amOund of dredging
necessary to make proper channel to
the up-river coal docks and to adyer-
tse for bids for doing the work. The
soil taken from the river bed will be
dumped behind the new city docks,
thus serving the double purpose of re-
ducing cost and filling. The three So
cialists voted against dredging, quite
contrary one would naturally suppose,
to their principle of having the public
do everything.

SAD DROWNING.

Myra and Adria Kaiser, aged II and
l3, of Milwaukee and visiting with
relatives at Two Rivers, were drowned
in Lake Michigan at Lone Pine beach
Tuesday evening. The girls were with
party of young folks from Two Riv-
ers. There were forty or fifty bathers
near by when the elder girl went to
the assistance of her sister who was
helpless in the undertow that was
carrying her out into deep water. In
the attempt to save her sister Adria
lost her own Efe. The body of Myra
was recovered at once by bathers but
up to this morning the body OF the
heroic sister had not been found.
The girls were daughters of the late
detective Kaiser Of the Milwaukee pc
lice who was one OF the victims OF the
anarchist bomb in Milwaukee over a
year ago. The bereaved mother has
left with her now only boy CT nine.

VACATIONl

Thousands of the younger set are
turned loose from their rcadn', ritin'
and 'rithmetic It's a gran and glori-
Gus feelin-one that grown-ups will
recall with a strong inkling Of pleas
ure.
You can probably imagine what
johnny and Mary see, through dream
thoughts, today. Not the new bound
aries of a revised world; not the yari-
GUS capitals of the forty-eight states Of
our own country; not the names of
numerous rivers, lakes and oceans
But, right before them, in myth,
stands out the iii OF swimmin' hole,
the various camping spots, the picnic
places or the animals at the ZOO. Close
to nature! That's the call of the sum
mer months.
\ large percentage of our education
comes from our connection with out
door life. When school doors close for
the summer rest, every mothers son
and daughter should romp forth to en-
joy what nature has placed at their
disposal.
1t wouldn't hurt mother or dad to
get out with the young folks and play
young again. The closer the relation
between parents and children, the bet
ter the parents know their family. The
result of it all is that when the school
doors swing open again, and the bust
ness of fall months takes hold once
more, every member Of the family will
take on the various burdens with re
newed pep and ambition n. T.. A.

Some persons-we do not think they
are fit to be called human beings
were caught in the act Of stealing
flowers planted on the graves in the
cemetery, last Sunday We do not see
how people with any respect for the
dead can resort to such dastardIy and
contemplate meanness, and we warn
those who were seen, that they had
better desist at once, or they may get
into trouble. We have heard frequent
complaints that trees were taken from
the lots where they were planted, and
it is high time that just punishment
should be meted out to such hrutes in
human form.

EDUCATIONAL.
(By J. w. VoborlD
THE BOY SCOUT MOVEMENT

According to DIR. George J. Fisher
statistics of our own people show that
the organic man is breaking down
Ills increasing detachment from the
old biological struggle that has made
him what he is physically has resulted
in this organic decadence. Life in
doors has played havoc with us, and we
lack the health and vigor which are so
essential in the task that a strong man
is to undertake. The scout movement
has discovered activities that furnish
this biological struggle which has been
rapidly disappearing. 1t gives the spirit
of romance TO wholesome physical eX-
perience in the out-of-doors. 1t is es-
tablishing in our youth wholesome sane
habits of health"
Dean James f. Russell of Teachers
College, Columbia University, says:
"The scout program is essentially
moral training for the sake of efficient
democratic citizenship. 1t gives def
mite embodiment go the ideals of the
school, and supplements the efforts of
home and church. 1t works adroitly,
by thousand specific habits, to anchor
a boy to modes of right living as Sc
curely as If held by chains of steel; but
best of all, it exhibits positive genius in
deyising situations that test boys
self-reliance and gives full scope to his
talents for originality and leadership.
These two aspects of the scout pro
gram are SO evenly balanced and SO
nigh pedagogically perfect. The entire
organization is machine capable of
working wonders, not only in the moral
regeneration of the American hoy, but
also in fitting him to assume the duties
of an American citizen"
l.. w. Barclay of New York in an
article in the January number of the
American Physical Education Review
makes use of the two quotations given
above and adds;
This is what scouting is and what
scouting means,- preparedness, men
tai, moral and physical"
Scouting is physical education. Yes,
it is more than physical education.
Scouting is a system of teaching ciyics.
Yes, it is more than a system of teach
ing civics. Scouting is a recreational
game. Yes, it is more than recrea-
tional game. Scouting is a school,
teaching first aid, outdoor cookery, ulc
lighting, signaling, nature work. >
1t is spirit. 1t is a process of teach
ing boys to be good scouts through
play fair play. Its foundations are
built upon the great principles of 10y
atty to God, loyalty to country, and
service to other people. The scout oath
is:
ON my honor l will do my best:
TO do my duty to God and my
country and to obey the scout law
TO help other people at all times,
TO keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake, and morally
straight"
The schools cannot afford to ignore
the boy scout movement
