Nv Sugar Is DOled Out.

No oafesseems to be saying now that
thereais IAN actual shortage of sugar.
There IS not. There is plenty of
sugar. hl the world but it IS closely
held and there isaspst enough releas-
ed IRON stime to time to- keen the
prices up. America Was offered A.
600, 900 tons of raw Cuban sugar

vised bnying it, but the president,
acting largely upon thegadviselof the
attorney general of the United States
Mitchell, decided ~agaist. such step.
TheyFdid not think the sugar would
get away. Six and one-half cents for
raw sugar would have made refined
sugar under ten cents pound now!
That was the monumental YbIpnder
not taking that sugar. ,
But that sugar has disappeared
from the face of the earth. Smart
fellows got next to it. They got into
touch with the Cubans and they got
control of the sugar, or most of it..
Then they started all sorts OF rum ora
about shortage and shipping difficult
ties and one thing after another,
even to the MISREPRESENTATION, that
sugar {consumption had been ,increas-
ed because of prohibitfon--w hieh

hardly knew how or where he got his

MEMORIAL DAY is TIME OF PRE-

The degree of civilization of an in
dividual or people is reflected in
their devotion to their dead. We like
to think of this as each passing year

shrined in the heart of the American
people as time Of precious memory.
In Viroqua the usual interest was
manifest. At 1880 the parade formed
and moved to the cemetery, headed by
Comrade Crume with Old Glory, then
the band, draped and decorated cars
carrying the fading remnant of the
boys in blue and the officials of the
day, fanked by two rows of flower
girls in white, World War veterans,
followed by the Woman's Relief Corps,
the Woodman degree team, and the
school children.
At the cemetery, Rev. Bullock open
ed with prayer, Messrs. Parker, Berge,
Nye and Mcintosh rendered three quar-
tette selections, the band furnished
two nice numbers, Mayor Roseland

Church

The annual Memorial day sermon
brought together very representative
congregation at the NJ. E. church Sun
day morning. Twenty-six of the boys
in blue, and the Woman's Relief Corps
were the guests of honor. Rev. Har-
rls took for the theme of his address
True Patriotism and False Patriot
ISM" and built up about the subject a
sermon filled with gems of good
thought. Appropriate music was rem
dered. Revs. Bullock and Jennings
had places on the program. Taken
altogether this union Memorial SER
vice was, like its predecessors, appro-
pirate and helpful.
A throng which crowded the Me-
thodist edifice to the doors assembled
in the evening to listen to Rev. Rose
lands address to the Senior Class of
Vroqua High School. His message
was ernest, eloquent and timely,
practical working creed for our youth
to carry with them as they step out
into life's broad activities. The class
presented a goodly sight as they filed
in and took the place of honor allotted
them. The Congregational church
choir rendered special music and Revs.

vine blessing.

THE ONTARIO CASE is DECIDED
Jury Find Automobile Case to be I'm
avoidable Accident

During the first half of last week
a large number of persons from the
Ontario section attended court at
Sparta as spectators or witnesses in
the trial of the case of Mickels against
Mason. The little daughter of the
plaintiff in attempting to cross the
street at Ontario collided with the au-
tomobile driven by Mr.. Mason and died
shortly afterwards. Mr.. Mickels
brought suit for $4,000 damages. The
jury found the deceased wanting in
ordinary care which results in judy
ment for the defendant. Attorney
Bennett of this city represented the
defense and Attorney r. B. Graves of
Sparta the plaintiff. All of which in
dieates that machine drivers and foot
travellers, as well as all others who
use the roads, cannot be too careful of
the rights Of others and of their own
safety. Safety first, last and always
spells fewer accidents. Be careful.

FIFTH STRAIGT GAMES
yIROQUA WINS FROM LANSING
SCORE OF TO6
Decoration Day Victory is Snatched
From Jaws of Defeat in Sixth
Inning

Snatching victory out of defeat IN
one of the most spectacular smuggling
matches ever played on the local
grounds, Viroqua's premier ball team
fought its way into the lead and nosed
out Lansing's strong team Decoration
afternoon by an to 6 score. 1t was
a SUGGEST right, with goodly num-
Der of boneheads and ragged plays.
Up to the fifth our boys were helpless
before their twirler, while they found
Big Chief Brown for four two baggers,
single and a pass, which with two
errors Melted them five scores. Then
our lads commenced to pound the pill
on the nose. Merlo's single scored
two in the 9Th. Singles by Merlo, Rab-
bitt and Brown and 3-sacker by Carl
Curtis in the sixth brought in three.
Lad and Curtis did the same in the
seventh. Lansing scored once in the
eighth. Kuehn got one hit, Pat l, Lad
l, Curtis 2, Brown 2, Rabbit /, Nor
rison l, Merlo 2. Tom Garin made
seven pretty catches in left field.
Chief Brown was a little out of
form, being tapped for nine hits, but
our husky lads retired their twirler
to the bench in the seventh. Our in
field pulled off two double plays, and
this together with six two-base hits
by the Lansing boys and three three
baggers by our lads marked it as q
remarkable game
Carl Coe umpired, and did a job
that pleased both sides. The Lansing
boys were royal sportsmen and play
ers and spoke well of their treatment
here.

PRICE IS UP 80 PER CENT

With this issue, the price OF the pa
per upon which the Vernon County
Censor is printed has been advanced
about so per cent-an act of mild
hammered piracy to further line the
pockets of the paper manufacturers
and render little surer the strangle-
hold upon the country press by the
big city dailies.
Our subscribers should remember
that after the first of July the price
of the Censor goes to 81 in Vernon
county and 1925 outside per year, but
that anyone may take advantage of
the old rate up to that time to renew
for one, two, three, four or five years,
and thereby save SOC year.
