Gov Willis Speaks.

0OF 0PSoAOe
About one hundred people attended
the dinner given at noon Monday in the
basement of the Congregational church.
The dinner was a complimentary din
ner given by the anti-saloon league of
the state. The business men of the
city had been invited to attend. Mr..
French of Appleton, one of the organ
izers of the league, and Gov. Willis of
Ohio were the speakers. Supt. F. o.
Holt presided, introducing the speak
ers.
The addresses of the two speakers
were splendid. Both were fluent talk
ers. During the course of their talks
they called the attention of their lis
teners to the fact that the question
which they were now interested in was
not question of wet or dry. That
phase of the question was settled.
They were interested only in law en-
forcement One of the most splendid
pleas for good citizenship and true
Americanism was made by Gov. Willis.
Gov. Willis is one of the nations big
men. He is big mentally, physically
and politically. He evidenced the fact
that his Americanism was bigger than
any other single characteristic. He
referred particularly to the attitude of
the liquor interests as they were or
ganizing to prevent the enforcement of
the laws which would prove detri-
mental to their interests. Very logic
ally he demonstrated that theirs was
the spirit of Bolshevism, that to them
respect for law, for order, for consti
tuted authority was matter worthy
of no consideration as set over against
their selfish desires.
Concerning the status of affairs in
Wisconsin the Burke substitute to the
prohibition enforcement measure was
referred TO. Gov. Willis is doing
monumental service in exposing that
measure before the people of the state.
He explained that it would virtually
set aside Wisconsin as a national reser-
walton for bootleggers. While the
amendment does do away with the bar,
it allows drinking at tables, on the
theory, suggested Gov. Willis, 'That
man can hold more booze sitting than
standing"
The startling fact was suggested that
if the amendment be adopted every
present regulation will be wiped out.
Liquor fees would be revoked, 2.75 per
cent beer could be sold to children of
any age, saloons without number could
be established anywhere. Wisconsin's
neighbor states have all passed laws to
enforce prohibition. The pitiful posi-
ton of Wisconsin, should the liquor
people control in this state, was so
graphically portrayed by Gov. Willis
that the fighting blood of any loyal
citizen of the state would be aroused
to the highest pitch.
Every Edgerton voter should have
heard Willis. Whether wet or dry in
the past, no reasoning mind could fail
to see that the issue now was one of
plain, loyal Americanism against dis
loyal Bolshevism.

Ice Cream Tax Goes Into Effect May 1.

Patrons of ice cream parlors should
note that law passed by congress in
1918 goes into effect May /, 1919, which
provides that tax of one cent for
each ten cents or fraction thereof of
the amount paid to any person conduct
ing an ice cream parlor, soda fountain
or other similar place of business. We
understand that this tax must be paid
by the consumer and must be collected
by the vender and RENTED each month
to the internal revenue collector. This
means that one cent tax must be paid
on each ten cent purchase.

into fine park. We learn that out
side parties stand ready to offer an at
tractive price for the property, but
such sale would preclude its further
use as a race course or for park pur-
poses. A committee was selected to
consider these questions.
"A branch of the American War
Veterans was organized here at a
meeting held at Woodman hall Friday
evening, attended by about thirty SOL
diers, sailors and marines that had
been called into service of their coun-
try. Col. Marshall Cousins and Col.
Salsman were present and explained
the objects of the organization that is
to be made countrywide. A draft of a
constitution was presented and adopt
ed, temporary officers were selected
consisting of Leon Ellingson, chairman,
and Chas. Bunker, secretary. 1t is
hoped the membership will be doubled
within few weeks, and all returning
soldiers are invited to join. During the
evening Col. Salsman presented the
order with handsome silk flag in be-
half of our loyal townsman, Henry
johnson. Justice Frank Russell took
occasion to pay high tribute to. the
Edgerton boys who responded to the
call of service. So far about lis of
our boys have returned home-scarcely
half of those who were called. Our
honor roll shows IA gold stars.

kINDLER-HAMMANN
RECITAL SUCCESSFUL
Fine Performances of Cello and
Piano Music Given Last Eve
ming at Witherspoon Hall

In spite of the rainy evening n large
crowd assembled in Witherspoon Hall
last evening to hear the cello and piano
recital of Hans Kinder and Ellis Clark
IIammann No one was disappointed
for in every way it was one of the best
rccitals that this pair of talented mu
sicans has yet given. The program
was we'll balanced, diversified and not
too long. Mr.. Kinder and Mr.. Ham
mann played two sonatas. one by Bee
thovcn and the other comparatively
little known work by Bocllmann. the
composer Of the we'll known Sym
phonic Variations for cello and orches-
ira. Each performer also appeared on
@ solo group.
The program began with the Bee
thovcn sonata in A major. Op. 80. one
of the giant works for the cello and
piano. II was played by Mcssrs Kind
Ter and IIammann with a strict fidelity
not only to the text, but also to the
spirit in which it was composed. The
balance of the Instruments was per
feet at all times. the tone of both was
very beautiful, and each deferred tc
the other in the purely solo passages in
manner that indicated long and care
ful study Of the great composition.
After the sonata, Mr.. Hammann
VINO IL nearu aS SOlolSt lar too III
frequently. played three numbers from
Chopin. the Prelude Op. 2S, No. 81. the
Etude Op. %, No. I, and the we'll.
known Bcrccusc. The last number ot
tho group was tho Dams les Bois" o
List. lie was at his best in the two
last numbers. showing fluent md
smooth technique and much grace anc
refinement in the delicate ornamental
tion of the Berceusc. lie was oblget
to respond many times to enthusiastic
applause, and finally played tn,
Witches Dance of MacDowell.
Mr.. Kindlcr's solo group consisted
of Largo by Chopin. a Serenade
partly Spanish and partly Oriental IN
character. by GlaZounow. u Cradle Son,
by Leo Ornstein arranged by Mr.
\indlcr himself. and the brilliant "At
the Fountain. by Davidoff. These
were all finely played. with an OK.

Mr.. Ornstcin has written, as natural

melody as characteristic but very
pleasing, and it was beautifully .rcn -
dered. At the close of the group Mr..
Kinder was recalled many times, and
responded with u melody of Tschai- o
kowsky.
The concert closed with the Bocll T.
mann sonata. a work of much diversity
Of mood and making severe demands on
tho players, being especially difficult in
the closing movement, for both instru
mcnts. Like the Beethoven. il was
finely played. The style of both Mr..
Kinder and of Mr.. Hammann is cmi-
ncntly suited to the performance of in
innate music of this character and
their recital was thorough success.
