RIPON GLEE CLUB

The Ripon College Glee Club gave

the auspices of the Sunday Evening
Club. The auditorium was packed to

was raised in order to make room for
the crowd. This room too was we'll
filled Any one who remained away
fearing a "dry prosy church enter
tainment" very assuredly missed
treat. Besides, anyone knowing Mr..
Breed, pastor of the Congregational
church certainly ought to know better
by this time, for to know him, means
that only the best, most interesting
and entertaining things are to be ex-
pected on these programs at the Sun
day Evening Club gatherings, people
of all denominations, classes, politics,
etc, are to be pleased, and it is safe
to say that Rev Breed certainly knows
how to go at it. The program given
by the Ripon College boys was varied
enough to please everybody, some
s)ngs were sacred, some solemn, others
lively and rollicking. The repeated
encores evidenced the fact that the
audience was an appreciative one and
no one went away disappointed. The
instrumental musical part of the pro-
gram too was excellent, and several
violin solos on this program showed
marked talent in their rendition. We
consider this one of the best musical
entertainments enjoyed here for some
time.

MODERN PRACTICE
OF ANCIENT ART SEEN
IN LIBRARY EXHIBIT
By Eleanor Jewett.

At the Chicago Public Library there
is now an interesting exhibit by
George W. Paulus illustrative of a
modern practice of an ancient art. 1t
is a collection from his brush of illu-
minated letters and manuscripts.
Rather do they resemble the deco
rated pages of those books wrought by
black robed monks in the lonely cells
of some monastery where the yellow
candles threw Pickering shadows
across the narrow windows that looked
out on desolate spaces, wide plains,
and bleak mountain tops, except where
an earnest brother had taken a spade
IN hand and planted vines or olive
trees to break the dreariness.
The pages by Paulus show sensi-
tive use of color, a nice discrimination
IN text, and delicate feeling for de-
sign. They are really rather remark
ably lovely. Though the art of illu-
rnination is not extensively practiced
oday, yet study Of this exhibit shows
the possibilities that lie in that art

county NURSE
IS NEEDED

The matter of securing profess
sional nurse for Wood County will
come up for disposal at the present
session of the County Board. Such a
person is being employed in many
counties of the state and this county
should provide for one. Lincoln coun-
ty has had one for two years and
she is doing excellent work, as the
following letters will prove:
Merrill, Wis, April 9, 1919
Mrs L. J. Belott,
Merrill, Wisconsin.
Dear Madam In response to your
inquiry concerning the success of our
county nurse movement in Lincoln
county, would state that it has been
an unqualified success. AS chairman
of frequent meetings to consider her
work, l had very good opportunity to
observe her work.
Our nurse is Miss Theta Mead, and
she has served in that capacity almost
5wo years. She is intelligent and con-
scientious and has done a world Of
yood thruout our county. Every coun-
ty in the state should have visiting
nurse, and I think soon will be oblig-
ed to have one pursuant to bill which
is before the legislature, and which L
think will soon become a law.
have heard of absolutely no ,0ppo-
sition to the county nurse in this
county, and know that as time goes
on there is more and more call for her
services. Of course, it is important
to get real capable, graduate nurse
for this work. Such person, in the
prevention of diseases, in advice as
to health matters, and in assistance to
the Juvenile Court and the poor au-
thorities, is worth several times the
salary which is paid.

| am persuaded that no action tax
en- by the County Board has resulted
IN IS much good to the people of the
County for the money invested, as has
resulted from the employment of Miss
Mead, the County Nurse.
The much talked of opposition to the
examination of school children by the
County Nurse, and the visits by her
to their homes, amounts to nothing.
AS q matter of fact, | know of no
home in the county that Miss Mead
has visited that does not welcome her.
AS a result of her visits to schools
and homes, many cases of tubercu-
losis have been detected and the par
ties suffering have been admitted to
sanitariums Many cases of feeble
mindedness have been detected, and
some of the parties have been elm
mated by commitment to the home
of the feeble-minded. Homes of the
poor people in which county aid is be-
ing expended, or which received mo-
thers' pensions, have been visited and
reported upon, resulting in decreased
allowances where it was deemed ne
cessary, and increased allowances
where it was very apparent the allow
ances were not sufficient.
During the recent influenza epidem-
ic and continuing up to the present,
her services have been of great value
to the community AS a matter of
fact, to her efforts in this particular,
there are many people in Lincoln coun
ty who owe their lives.
Lincoln county cannot afford to dis
pense with county nurse. 1t would
be a crime against mothers and little
children. 1t would be great financial
mistake on the part of the taxpayers.
You may use this letter wherever
you choose, if it will result in provid-
ing nurse in any other county.
Very sincerely yours,
RALPH E. SMITH
