FRESH SLANG

Business men, persons OF property,
and professional men such as doctors,
lawyers and preachers, make UP what
the European revolutionists call "the
bourgeois" For quite while the
slang for this has been "bushwah."
If you're in the swim and way up
among the uppety-ups, why that's
when you're bushwah.
Well, along come the American cor
respondents to Berlin and Vienna.
And they find "the proletarians" try
ing to make revolution. If you've
got no property at all, no real estate,
no bank stock. no railroad bonds,
and if you have to work for every red
cent you pay the grocer, then, accord

Men must have order. When the
family came into existence it was or
ganized in such a way that unity pre-
vailed most of the time. Then came
the tribe or clan with leaders; next
the cit es with their rulers In time
nations evolved, then empires, and
finally unions of nations. AS com
bine followed combine the world be-
came more related until now the whole
world is affected when there is dis
turbance in the social fabric. In or.
der to have happiness, in order to
have progress, in order to have civil
ization there must be order. This is
the great task of the world at the
present hour.

Defines Bolshevisrn

What is Bolshevism? BolShevism is
the result of hunger, want and ignor-
ance!
What creates hunger in a family
quicker than TO let the bread-winner
have the kind of personal liberty that
the liquor business is demanding for
him-the kind that takes the food
from his family and gives it to the
liquor interests?
When man spends his money in
a saloon, instead Of providing for his
family, where is the personal liberty
of his family?
They cannot be properly clothed nor
fed, neither can they have the educa
ton they need to make them good
citizens.
In fact, the personal liberty of a
whole family of FROM five to dozen,
more or less" is swept away because
the saloon has so used it's money and
brains to pull the wool over the eyes
of the public to make them believe
that the one man--the head of the
family-should have the liberty to de-
prive his whole family of the proceeds
OF his 1abors SO they 1.-THE liquor atraf-
fickersl may have it.
This is personal liberty and the
foundation principle of Bolshevism.

WISCONSIN FIRST

Wisconsin was second in all the
United States as to the low cost of
exemption boards. Oklahoma was the
lowest in dealing with this phase OF
the war. Wisconsin was first in re
porting the registration, first in estab
fishing a state council of defense and
first also in many other patriotic
ways; and it should be first now in
stern resistance to the demands OF
the bolshevists in whatever form they
come; and to that end, first in check

HOW TO KEEP THE GERMS
AWAY

This is the time. Of year when peo-
pie have tired feeling and when in
fluenza germs have an easy opportu-
nifty to get into the system. When
the vitality of person is low there is
fertile ground for the germs to grow.
The past winter has been mild; people
have worn too much clothing and
houses have been too warm. Remain
in the sunlight as much as possible,
keep in good spirits, and do not work
until exhausted. Eat plenty of fruit
and vegetables; above all do not
worry; life is too short for that. Read
few health books from the library.

EDITORIAL OPINION FAVORS
LEAGUE,

Telegrams- received by the New York
World from approximately two score
of the centers of population through
out the country show that the over
whelming weight of editorial opinion
fayors the League of Nations.
The editorial ex pressions in each
section is thus summarized:
EAST-Of 121 papers definitely
c1assed, sixty-three favor the league,
forty-three oppose it and fifteen are
neutral. The opposition, in nearly all
instances, is against the proposed COW
enant, not against the idea.
SOUTH-Only twelve papers are
stated as in positive opposition, while
BAT have declared themselves favora-
BILE to the league In instances where
figures are not stated, the correspond
ents report that from 75.to 80 per cent
of the papers favor the league.
MIDDLE WEST While the papers
in this section favor the league idea,
there is considerable outspoken oppo-
sition to the draft of the covenant
and a demand for amendment and
modification. However, many .Repub-
lican papers, as we'll as nearly all the
Democratic papers, favor the league.
| NORTH-In this section, composed
| of states along the Canadian border
between the Great Lakes and the
Rockies, the interest in the question
/ is not as great as elsewhere, but a
majority of the papers have declared
/ themselves in favor of the league
WEST-In many of the western
states editorial opinion appears to
have divided on strictly party lines
/ the Republican papers, however, care
fully insisting that they oppose the
covenant as it is, and not the idea of
a League Of Nations.

BARABOO WILL REMAIN DRY

So a few voters desire the saloons
to come back to beautiful Baraboo
Why? 1t is easily explained. Accord
ing to a statement published by the
local anti-saloon committee it will be
necessary in the future for dealer to
pay $1,000 if he obtains a license from
the government to sell in dry terri
tory. The committee says several per
sons in Baraboo hold government Il
censes at the present time and unless
beautiful Baraboo goes wet they
must pay 81 1000 next time. OF course
they would not do this, therefore they
would like to have the town classed
with wet territory. If they undertook
to sell without license and the fed
eral agents ferreted them out, the ex-
periences would be expensive.
Baraboo is a beautiful rural city,
has found that saloons are not neces
sary Tin fact found they are a scourge
on society, and no doubt the voters
will count more dry votes than ever
before. Baraboo does not need sa
looms, does rot want saloons and will
not have saloons. Baraboo will re.
main dry.
