ADVERTISERS OFFERING A
GREAT MANY BARGAINS

Pilot advertisers are offering a
splendid opportunity to save money
just now Conditions indicate that
prices will not drop suddenly but that
they will gradually decline until the
old level is reached, although up to
very recently the prevailing popular
sentiment was the old-time forerun-
ner of panic. The mobile arrange
ment afforded by the Federal Reserve
and the systematic financial grounding
of the present seem to render improb-
able any sudden, riotous economic
changes. That being the case, buyers
are at an advantage when sincere
sales are offered.
In some cases local merchants are
selling at a lower price just at pres
ent in order to make room for the tre-
mendous new stocks they always put
in for fall and winter They are ca
ger. therefore, to clear their shops of
summer and spring goods, much of
which will be found well fit for use
during the fall. Oftentimes buyers can
pick up much essential wearing ap-
parel, shoes and even household
equipment and furniture at summer
sales of this character at great saw
ings. The careful purchaser will at
least not fail to investigate.

RANDALL PARRISH,
AUTHOR, SPEAKS HERE

Randall Parrish, author and lectur
er, of Kewanee, ILL.,, addressed
large audience at the Court House
square last Thursday evening during
band concert intermission. Mr.
Parrish is speaking in various Wis
consin cities under the auspices of the
Constitutional Defense League. He
dealt particularly with industrial and
economic questions within the United
States.
"The fathers, in preparing :he Con-
stitution, the greatest document ever
signed by men, had before them all
the experiences of the past and wisely
chose the form of the Republic. Their
wisdom is abundantly proven by the
result. Europe was convinced that
such a government. by the people and
for the people, could not live for fifty
years, and now, after one hundred and
fifty years of existence, it is stronger
than ever before, and stands on a
firmer foundation than any other gov
ernment on earth-the love and faith
of its people. If we have failed to
meet all the dreams of those who love
| liberty, it has been the fault of the
administration, not of the ideals
Year after year the citizenship hold
in it's own hands the full measure OF
| reform, and they way is open to it
The American idea is that of individ.
ual effort, founded securely on the
principles of labor, home and religion
This was illustrated by the picture Of
Angelus and contrasted with it was
brought into view the socialistic doc
trine, advocating the overthrow o1
this time tried structure for the up
building of an experiment in commun
ism, which has proven a failure
wherever accepted"
| The address by Mr.. Parrish was lis
tened to with interest by the people
attending the band concert.

COMPANY G TO CAMP IN
TWO WEEKS

The 22nd Separate Company w. N,
G. Company G. will go to Camp
Douglas for it's two weeks training
period on one of the first several days
of August. according to Capt. F. r.
Becker, who expects that nearly nine
ty members of the organization will
be able to go. Only few will be out
of the ranks for the period. The men
are eager for encampment and, de-
spite the work there will naturally be,
an excellent time is anticipated. To
create mess fund surplus, members
of the organization are giving dance
at Rothschild pavilion on July Goth.
Every soldier has taken a number of
tickets to dispose of, and it is only
right that citizens respond literally.
The men are eager to receive their
uniforms which have been delayed but
the entire equipment will be the same
which was used by the government in
France. At least this is what other
guard companies which have already
encamped received.

SENATOR WILCOX HITS
RADICAL MOVES IN AN
ADDRESS TUESDAY

There are many needed reforms
but they can be secured through the
ballot box by progressive, constitu-
tional legislation" said State Senator
Roy P. Wilcox in a public address at
the Court House square last Tuesday
evening. Those who preach political
upheavel as the remedy are resorting
to the law of the jungle that might
makes right. Their success would
turn the clock back eight or nine CEN
turtles, as it has in Russia today"
The local campaign of wilcox for
governor" was thus started in Wausau.
Senator Wilcox recognizes one out
standing issue, the one against Social
ism. He denounced it, the Nonparti-
san League and other radical moves
as opposed to the American doctrine
of equal opportunity for all. Senator
Wilcox also spoke at Schofield, Roth
child and Mosinee.

OPPORTUNITY TO PLACE
WISCONSIN IN DEMO-
CRATIC COLUMN"

A letter written by John P. Hume,
chairman state central committee,
which has been sent to prominent
Democrats throughout the state and
which calls for a Democratic state
conference on Wednesday, July p,
reads as follows:
The National convention at San
Francisco has nominated as our can
didates for president and vice presi-
dent men who command respect and
should receive our hearty support.
While there were several candidates
before the San Francisco convention,
the contest for the nominations was
friendly and the delegates left with
confidence that the candidates named
would be elected.
The opportunity of placing Wiscon
sin in the Democratic column is here,
and if the same spirit is shown by
Wisconsin Democrats as shown by the
delegation in San Francisco, success
is certain.
To do this, however. candidates for
the several state offices, U. S. Senate,
Congress. etc, must be selected with
care and the Democrats of the state
have every chance of expressing their
opinions in the primaries. To this
end, the State Central committee has
directed that a conference be called
at the Auditorium in Milwaukee on
Wednesday, July q, at ten o'clock a.
m., for the purpose of suggesting can
didates for the office of U. S. senator,
governor, lieutenant governor, secre-
tary of state, state treasurer and at
torney general. and to transact such
other business as may properly come
before said conference. Each county
is entitled to one delegate for every
$50 voters or fraction thereof, cast
for the Democratic candidate for gov
ernOr at the last general election.
The various county chairmen are
requested to issue forthwith call for
a Democratic County Conference in
their respective counties to select the
delegates to said state Conference. 1t
is recommended that each precinct in
the different counties be represented
at such county conference.
Democratic State Central Com,
John P. Hume, Chairman.

Mrs. George Mcintosh. "It is very
likely that we will do something like
this" she told a Pilot representative.
"either arrange a little rest room
where visiting women may make
themselves comfortable while at the
fair, or we will have a lunch room
serving meals. We may combine both
features. AS yet no definite plans
have been completed, however"

SHORT NEWS ITEMS

The Industrial Commission has sent
out letter repri1ting several pieces
OF advice from soap manufacturers
One reads: '"Put two gallons of gaso-
line and two ounces of solvite soap in
wash boiler or large dishpan and do
your own dry cleaning at home" The
others az equally bad recipes. The
Industrial Commission letter says:
Order the doctor, nurse, coroner
undertaken and fire department in ad-
vance. During all three operations
the gasoline constantly evaporates
and the fumes mix with the air. Be
ing nearly three times as heavy as
air, they flow along the floor like
stream of water, lodging in the low
places, perhaps fifty feet away from
their source. The explosive force of
this mixture is fourteen times greater
than dynamite. The tiny drop of gas
oline evaporated and exploded by an
electric spark propels the heaviest
truck"

ficient every week for one column in
