Spinning Not u Lost Art

On Armistice day the people of
BrOdhead, in Green County, COM
memorated the landing of the Pill
grims three centuries ago as we'll as
the termination of the world war
two years ago. A pageant of the
Pilgrims was staged by local talent
in ~the afternoon, commemorative
addresses were delivered in the NOR
ming, while all day long sightseers
examined the display of historical
relices arranged in the show win
doWs of the stores.
The most remarkable of the eX-
hibits was two elderly women spin
ming exsellent yarn out of carded
wool on spinning wheels such as
were used in Mayfower days. The
spinners had learned the art in it's
perfection and our regret is that no
motion picture camera operator was
at hand to perpetuate a kind of skill
which is becoming all to rare. The
good people of Brodhead would per-
form a valuable service to history
by inducing few of their young
girls into the mystery of spinning
SO as to hand down the tradition to
the next generation.

But the great opportunity for doing
good at this time is frequently over
looked in the desire to provide mere

in our giving We may couple both
pleasure and profit, even to the eX-
tent of arousing thought along hui

Good books form splendid gifts,
and they are valuable to our child
rem There are some books, how
ever which especially create humane
sentiment. Why not, this Christmas,
choose our gift books from this shelf
When the need of America today is
humanity, why not think in terms of
it ourselves and incite others to do
so?
Further, we may select the toys
for the children with the same
thought in mind. There are toys
which tend to instill in the youthful
minds thoughts of kindness and love
of man and beast. Then, there are
toys which arouse only. the desire to
kill Not only is the handling of
many of the latter dangerous to hui
man life and bodily welfare, but

ers, and for the fulfillment of the
promise of peace on earth good will

The Blue Grass Region to the Fore

Dodgeville Chronicle: Never be-
fore has Iowa County been so prom
inently brought before the live stock
world as during the past two weeks
Three times within a ten-day period
Iowa County cattle have topped the
Chicago market so unusual that it
was the talk at the stockyards for
several days. This county is now
recognized as the best beef produc-
ing county in the state and holds the
records for high prices for Wisconsin
cattle for the year. There is not the
slightest reason for anyone to be
pessimistic over land values in this
section of the state. The land that
grows the grass will hold the price.
