Marion, Ohio, Sept. 3.-Hope
that the United States will take the
lead to "outlaw war" and secure
the permanent peace of the world,
was voiced by Senator Harding to-
day in a speech at homecoming
celebration at Mount Gilead, Ohio,
a country town in his native coun-
ty.
Addressing a crowd from a street
booth where members of the
American Legion were soliciting
funds for a home for their local
post, the republican nominee de-
clared he was willing to do any
thing short of surrendering the ma
tons independence to attain world
concord He maintained that ac-
ceptance of the league of nations
as ii was written, however. would
involve a sacrifice of nationality
which no friend os peace should adj
vocate.
II want to show my gratitude to
these men in an effective way,
said Senator Harding turning TO
the former service men, by seeing
that neither they nor their sons nor
their sons sons shall ever be called
to the battle front, again. am
not sure that l am in complete
accord with others as to the means,
but if | can speak the conscience
of America, we will lead the world
to outlaw war"
The candidate also declared the
nation must show practical, help
full generosity to the former SOL
dier, adding that it was unfair to
impose universal service unless
there was to be an adequate eX-
preston of gratitude with the re-
turn of peace.

livered by Senator Harding today,

According to American Consul Nor
Ton of Sydney. Australia, a secret
process, said to be unknown hitherto
to the tannery trade, has been dlscov-
cred by an Australian for making
leather from rabbit skins and recover

In Sydney to turn this discovery to
practical use. having established
works capable of handling about 1O0.-
600 skins a week. The leather has
already been utilized in Sydney in the

WAGES CUT IN WOODS.

Practically every lumber company
in Northern Wisconsin made a cut in
wages from SO to SIS per month,
due to the condition of the lumber
market today. Lumber has decreased
from 500 to $50 thousand, in some
grades and many yards are over
stocked.
Building is practically at stand
still and there is no demand for the
mill product.
Edward Hines interests in Minnea-
sofa are, in some instances, practical
|ly closed down, and in other cur
tailed to so per cent of their usual
output. Minnesota woodsmen wages
have been cut from $50 to S6s per
month.
However, this is not the case in
northern Wisconsin, where the camps
are going at full speed and the de-
mand for labor is heavy.

Herring fishing begins out of Bay
field this week, and big crop is ex-
pected to be harvested.
The average herring catch is 50,-
900 per day, and with three fish to
the pound. the weekly catch amounts
to over two million fish.
The biggest herring fisheries are
off Big Bay on the north side of
Madeline Island. Here the herring
crowd every fall, led by the big bull
herring, reaching the shoals for
spawning. In some places the herring
are so thick that the water presents
"a solid appearance. This happens year
after year and the herring catch
means big money to the fishermen of
Bayfield, and the Islands.
The herring return each year to the
same snot and the fishermen lay nets,
one on top of the other, sometimes
being five deep in water about 60
feet deep. Almost before net is
laid it is filled with fish and the big
power rollers of the fishing smacks
haul in the nets, while three or, four
men stand at the edge of the boat
throwing the fish into the, hold, pick
ing out the leaders and throwing them
back in, to lead: the schools back next
year.
The season lasts several weeks and
the, fish are frozen and sent into
Minneapolis and Duluth where the
Booth Packing Company has its ware
houses.
The next largest herring fisheries
are offthe shore at Green Bay, where
it takes four or five herring to make
pound while the Bayfield, fisheries
need only two or three.
Fishermen, the last four or five
years, have been making big money
from their catches. Fish have been
bringing a bigger price and in spite

THIS IS Good
SCHOOL WEEK
SENTIMENT TO DEvELOY BET
TER SCHOOLS.
People Urged to Make All School In
struction Contribute TO Good Citi-
zenship and Personal Efficiency.

This is "Good School Week" in the
state of Wisconsin and special effort
is being made throughout the state
ito get the parents and Others inter-
ested in school work to cooperate
with; the schools to help raise the
standard of the school work and to
make the schools more efficient.
During thisN week parents are
urged to visit the schools in order
that they may have better under
standing of the work being done and
so far large number of parents have
attended and a good deal pf interest
has been taken. Following up the
work the parents are to be urged to
visit the schools from time to time
and to keep posted on the work be-
ing done.
A meeting was held at the Y. M.
C. A. last Tuesday evening at which
time an Executive Committee for
".Good School Work" was named and
this committee has made special
effort to induce parents and business
men to visit the schools. The COM
mittee has endeavored to have the
public's attention focused on educa-
ton in order to develop public senti-
ment in favor of better schools, the
specific aims Of this committee being
as follows:
1. To make all school instruction
contribute to good citizenship and
personal efficiency.
2. To secure regular school at
tendance.
8. To insure satisfactory health
conditions in the schools. This re-
commendation to include the employ
ment of city health nurse.
There is nothing more valuable
than education for it fits the child
for life's work. The chances of
success of child with an education
are so far in advance of the child
lacking an education that there is no
comparison. Education makes for
better citizenship, for better efficiency
and for higher standards of living.
