BUILDING ASSOCIATION ENl ARGES

There was a meeting OF the stock
holders Of the local Building and
Loan Association Tuesday evening to
consider the matter of increasing the
capitalization from $1,000, 900. Those
present were unanimous to increase to
S5, 900, 900 but as it required 1000 shares
of stock voting 10 the Affirmative the
question was left open and stockholders
are balloting on the matter at secre-
tary Grotfman's drug store until the
adjourned meeting to be held Satur-
day evening. There is little doubt
that the plan will 90 through. The
demands for memberships have be-
come an inundation and they cannot be
met but by an increased capitalization.
Judge Baensch, the father Of the ssso-
citation, in fact the originator Of the
Wisconsin idea and the law under
which Wisconsin associa tons operate,
favors the increase.

EDUCATIONAL.

Some one has said that we should
try to make "the thirst for real educa-
ton take the place of the thirst for
money making" By real education"
this person doubtless meant education
as an end in itself and not as a means
to money making.
The trouble with our education to-
day is that it is made a task. How
many who go to school or college ac-
quire real liking for their studies so
that when they are through with
school they will keep on studying all
of their lives just for the pleasure and
profit they get out of it?
Education really ought to be life
process. In school you only get a
start. You are supposed to get taste
for studies. Alas, there are many who
leave school with a positive distaste.
Is there any reason for that. The
reason must lie in the teaching. The
teacher, presumably, is deeply in love
with his subject. To him its pursuit is
not task, but pleasure. Why can
he not communicate that attitude to
his students? The answer is that he
doesn't get into close enough contact
with his students. He is impersonal,
aloof, autocratic often and a taskmas-
ter.
Says the teacher to the student:
"here, learn this, do this task, or you
will get bad mark" So the student
accepts it as something that he has to
do whether he wants to or not or
whether he is interested or not lie
may peg away and do the allotted
work, though quite mechanically. He
will not do any more than is required.
In many cases, he employs his wits to
escape doing more than enough to get
by," as he says.
The thirst for knowledge is the real
essence of education. No man or
woman who has once gotten that thirst
will let the thirst for money making
take the place of everything else in his
or her life. If boys and girls gradual
ing from high school or college can
say that they are really at the com
mencement of their education, that
they have gotten an inspiration to be
students all of their lives, then their
diploma represents something. Other
wise it isn't worth a Milwaukee
Journal.

MYSTERIOUS AFfRAY ON STREET

About 2:30 A. M. last Tuesday morn
ing several residents in the neighbor-
hood of South 9th and Jay streets were
startled by noise as OF scunling on
the street, three pistol shots in quick
succession and the sound of some one
running away. One man who went out
to investigate expecting TO find some
one hurt could find nothing. The
police station is within "stone S
throw" but the police beard nothing
about it until late the next morning.
1t was not drunken rowdies and pro-
badly was one OF those near tragedies
that the principals wisely keep from
the prying public.

The former proprietors of the Trib-
une, Mcssrs. Smith and Enert, have dis
posed of their establishment to Fred
Borcherdt, Esq. We welcome the new
proprietor to the ranks of those who
occupy the editorial chair, hoping that
he may find its ways the ways of peace,
prosperity and pleasantness. The out
going editors succeeded in making the
Tribune a good local paper, and we
have no doubt its reputation in that
line will be kept up. We understand
that Messrs. Smith & Enert will locate
at some point in Florida and make
that state their future home. If so, we
expect soon to see in our sanctum a

There. was time, and not far dis-
tant in the past, when strikers had the
sympathy of a majority of the people
of the country. The rule or ruin policy
adopted by the strikers this year has
almost wholly alienated that sympathy
and they are now regarded as set Of
men inimical to the welfare Of the
country. The executives of these states
in which people are terrorized by strik-
ers and property destroyed should call
out the militia and put a sudden end to
the reign of anarchy.
