The speaker felt that his uncle had
more fully realized the philosophy of
| life than the average person and that
he fully enjoyed his more than three
score years and ten of existence. The
greatest companionship, the greatest
fidelity always existed between them
and for him it was OF the deepest re-
greet that the plans Of the deceased
for coming to his nephew's home could
not be realized. He expressed the
kindliest Appreciation for what the
Baraboo people had done for the de-
lceased and spoke of the appreciation
he felt for all that his uncle had done
for him-the relative there to be laid
away in the Baraboo cemetery.

AGAIN IN CONTROL

Prices Alternately and
Recede-Undertone Continues

Except for a slight increase in the
volume of business the stock market yes
terday did not differ from that of wednes-
day. In the vernacular OF the street it
was again trading affair" with the
undeftone. however. good. Some issues
were decidedly strong, others yielded
under the pressure exercised by specu-
lators for a quick turn.
That the short interest was not increased
to any extent was demonstrated after the
close of the market by the lack OF demand
for stocks in the so-called loan crowd On
the other hand, the fact that no stocks
were returned TO lenders showed that the
existing short interest lad not been re-
duced.
Taken as a whole, the market gave n
fairly good account Of itself The encour-
aging feature was the strength of United
States Steel common. The buying Of that
issue was good. Also accumulation of
tobacco stocks again was evident. In
view of the fact that these issues led the
upward movement in the market last sum-
mer. that purchasing was regarded as
significant.
So far as news developments were con-
cerned, interest was concentrated on the
message Of exceptional Importance
which it had been reported President Will
son would transmit to the Jackson Day
celebrants IN Washington in the evening.
The dividend meeting Of the United States
Rubber Company's directors also attracted
attention because of the reports of an
extra payment to be declared thereat.
So far as the Presidents promised ut
terances were concerned, the great quos-
ton was would he maintain his att''rde
of mo compromise" Should the President
demand the ratification of his treaty or
of none, il was the concensus the market
for securities would be considerably chilled
because such action would further delay
execution of arrangements bankers are
formulating for the extension of private
aid 10 Europe.
After early firmness, stocks yielded un-
der raids by floor traders. In the re-
covery in the afternoon steels and tobacco
stocks led, followed by the equipments.
Sugars also developed a strong tone.
Money was not factor. Renewals were
effected at six per cent, the lowest rate
for such accommodations since early in
December Although not much change is
expected in the character Of the market
until the end of the month, informed
authorities look for a steady improve
ment thereafter.

There never was time when citi'
zenship meant as much as ii. does to-
day. No; only in the United States bui
throughout the world. men are risinf
TO a complete sense Of their manhood
The prerogatives of favored individ-
uals and classes are suffering abridge-
ment. year by year. Public opinion
even in the old world monarchies. is
rapidly becoming more potent than tbs
will of princes. and. what Is more sig
nificant, every member of the body
polite has a share in making this opin-
ion. In our own country the enamel
patton is almost complete. By the
principles upon which our government
is founded and by the forms Of the
government itself, the responsibility is
wholly in the hands Of the people.
This is a tremendous responsibility ne
cause it involves not only the privi.
leges of the individual citizen. but his
protection in life and liberty and the
conditions OF his individual success.
How then shall he be fitted for such
"a responsibility There is but one
answer. Education IS the essential
thing Without It there can be no full
and intelligent discharge of the duties
of citizenship. The man or woman who
admire citizenship. even though they
may not have been classed with the
responsibility OF family cares, knows
that TO obtain this citizenship II is nee
essary TO maintain the EDUCATIONAL in
stitutions.
Who would sacrifice this blessed
privilege to avoid a little additional
taxation? People are quite likely to
judge the quality of a government by
the citizens it produces, and the same
IS true with educational institutions.
We raise immense crops and store &
away in immense cribs. We produce
wheat and othc r grains in fabulous
quantities. We raise the slcekest cat
tie and horses to be found anywhere.
We market the fattest cattle and
sheep and goats and hogs We behold
all this and say IL Is very good. But
the most important crop we raise is
the boys and girls. Upon their right
education depends not only their hap
piness and ours but the destiny of the
nation itself, Is It right to say that
any one of these young people should
be given a common school education
and then be turned out to rustic an
education for themselves like the pio-
neer Darcy Of Salem? No, It is self
ishness, extreme selfishness to claim
such possibility for anv one of them
under the present conditions. We are
living IN different age than the days
Of Mr. D'Arey's youth, Il may be re-
called that he used to drive one horse
hitchcd to shay in going about the
capital city. Today he is riding In a
pretty fair AUTOMOBILES. Would Mr..
darcy and others complaining Of ex-
trayagant educational institutions care
to so back to the colonial DAYS and
live without the privileges OF this en-
llghtened world? Such would be the
manner Of living but for the educa-
tional institutions of the country
