witt, went to see the young man and
he promised to come to the Hewitt
home on Wednesday evening. Miss
Hewitt and her parents were very
much distressed He failed to come
on Wednesday evening but sent a
letter stating that he had a cold and
would call on the following Sunday.
He met her on the street and he
claims from her appearance she was
not much grieved over the matter.
He did not call on Sunday evening
The father insisted that something
be done but the young man was obsti-
nate. On January 20, the action was
started.
Miss Hewitt an Only Child
The plaintiff is an only daughter,
an only child now living, of Mr.. and
Mrs. Ernest Hewitt. She is attractive
and made clear, decisive, and unhesi
tating witness on the stand. She
teaches piano music.
His father, James Draper, is about
"a years of age and was not at the
trial His sister is the wife of the
banker, w C. Hahn in the village. He
makes his home with his father and
younger sister The defendant is a
! rural mail carrier.
AS to whether or not Mr.. Draper
had paid attentions to other young
women was not admitted as evil
dence.
In the final analysis he had no
particular reason for breaking the
engagement, according to the testi
mony. There was some joking about
school teacher that boarded at
his home, but this was of no conse.
auence. 1t also developed she danced
and he did not, but this did not ap-
pear to furnish adequate ground
It was not case where cou-
pie is engaged for ten or fifteen
years, in the end depriving the wo-
man of other chances of marriage
The courtship was Of comparative
short duration.
He is aged about 33 years and she
is about 28 He is worth about $4,000.
Charge to the Jury
In addressing the jury, Judge
James O'Neill of Neillsville said
three things were to be considered in
arriving at a verdict.
1. The contract to marry
2. The breach Of contract.
8. The damages.
He went over the ground careful
ly, stating the claims of the plaintiff
and defendant, and said that it was
not necessary there should be an ex-
act time when the engagement was
made, that there need not be direct
evidence-not necessary for others
to testify there was an engagement.
He told the jurymen they were to
consider the feelings, affections, dis
tress, humiliation, modification, an
xiety and disappointment of the plain
tiff, in reaching a conclusion. Tue
jury was not to be swayed because
the one seeking damage was a We
man, and the defendant a man. Tie
matter was to be weighed on the cyl
dence presented.

PLEA FOR MISSIONARIES

The Indifference to human life in
Christian lands adds tmmeasur-
ably to the white mans burden, says
the Interchurch World Movement, in
making a plea for 655 medical mis-
sonaries for work in 1920 and for
1881 during the five year period of the
Interchurch Movement. In Africa and
the asst a vast army of detectives

There are million blind and at
least 400, 900 deaf in China. India has
half million blind Nearly five per
cent of the population of Cairo is
said to be physically defective, usually
blind or half blind. The natives of the
| African jungle, instead of being the
tlusty savages of imagination, are for
The majority of them are malnour-
lished and disease and marked physi-
Zeal defects are common
Africa and the Orient are no lon

zation is beginning to awaken them
from a centuries-long sleep. They are
becoming self-conseious and restless.
Their hundreds of millions will have
la powerful voice in determining world
progress and world-peace. How ef-
fectively they will function depends in
la large measure upon the Western
World.
The Occident, according to the In
terchurch, cannot afford to evade it's
Responsibility. The population of the
! East, is increasing by leaps and
bounds. There are today S00.000,000

The white mans burden is growing
too heavy for him to carry, He must
teach the backward races to stand
Ialone
One of his first duties is to rid
them of the weight of ill-health that
drags them down. A hundred years
of work have proved that the medical
missionary not only sets standards Of
hygiene and sanitation, but is a sue
cessful envoy of Western civilization.
The money spent in medical missions,
say the officials of the 1nterchurch
world movement, is an investment for
world peace.

community by referendum vote,
were today endorsed by Burdette G.
Lewis, state commissioner Of institu-
tons and agencies.
Our cities should be given power
by referendum vote to authorize the
showing of educational and cultural
motion pictures on Sunday" said Mr..
Lewis, such as are recomm ended by
the national board of review of mo-
ton pictures, which keeps its educa-
tional secretary, a former minister, in
the field constantly, assisting the
local churches and the local moral
leaders in assuring the featuring OF
proper subjects on Sunday.
1t is much better that the family
should attend movies of this kind
than that the men members should
be forced to find some gambling hole
or some cider 'stube' in which to
spend their time on Sunday, since the
poor mans club, the corner saloon,
Is now happily a thing of the past
And so, as a public official, Inter
ested in the prevention of crime, as
member of the national board of
review of motion pictures, and as the
father of a family, I am heartily in
favor of senate bill No. 100, which
provides an opportunity to the public
to attend motion picture exhibitions
on Sunday, in any section of the COM
munity, If the residents of such q
community should so decide upon
referendum vote"
