TO CLEAN NICKEL ARTICLES
Wash Frequently in Hot soapy Water
and Dry With Soft cIoth-Whit-
ing Can Be Used.

Nickel and nickel-plated articles do
not tarnish so readily as silver. WASH
ing them frequently with hot soapy
water and drying them with soft cloth
or paper will usually keep them in
good condition. Whiting, or some
other fine scourer may sometimes be
used to brighten nickel that has be-
come dull, but such condition often
means that the surface is scratched
or the plating broken. Replating is the
only remedy in such cases.

DECIDED TO
SUPPORT WILCOX

GAINESVILLE, Wis.-Ex-Senator John
M. Whitehead announced Saturday
that after giving consideration to the
situation which has developed in the
Republican primary, he has decided
to support Senator Roy P. Wilcox "a
the man who stands the best chance
of defeating John j. Blaine, non-parti-
san league candidate, for the RepubE-
can nomination for governor.
"The whole question in this cam
paign revolves around the candidates.
Of Senator Wilcox and DIR. Seaman on
the one hand, and of the candidacy Of
John j. Blaine, and the attempt Of the
Non-partisan league to control the
state" Ex-senator Whitehead said.
Il am frank to say that in my opin-
ion Senator Wilcox is the candidate
most likely to secure the nomination
in the primary. l have studied the sit
uation as we'll as I could, and have
drifted to the conclusion that Senator
Wilcox Is in the best position to win.
vi DIR. Seaman | think very highly,
but | believe he has entered the race
too late to overtake Senator Wilcox.
Under these circumstances, I have de-
cIded to give my support to Senator
Wilcox in the primary campaign"

DEATH OF MRS.
HENRY OSTERMAN

Mrs. Henry Osterman, aged 72
years, an old and respected resident
Of the town of Grand Rapids, Wood
county, and sister of Mrs. S. Adams
Stevens Point, died at the home of her
daughter, Mrs. Henry Eberhardt,
near Kellner, on Tuesday morning.
Mrs. Osterman suffered a paralytic
stroke about II years ago and had
since been in poor health, but she
had not been confined to her bed ex-
cept for two weeks prior to her death.
The late Mrs. Osterman was born
in Norway and came to this country
with her parents when she was about
eight years old and had resided in the
town of Grand Rapids for more than
so years. She was married in 1866 to
Henry Osterman, who preceded her
in death about six years ago. One
daughter, Mrs. Henry Eberhardt of
Kellner, one sister, Mrs. S. Adams of
the Point and brothers, F. Whit

ravian church at Kellner. Interment
took place in Forest Hill Cemetery in

Mrs. Adams of Stevens Point was
called to Wisconsin Rapids last Mon
day morning by the serious illness of
her sister, and was with her at the
time of her death. She had been a fre-
quent visitor at the Eberhardt home
during her sisters illness. Mrs. Adams
returned to Stevens Point Thursday
evening.

He fell forward under the cows fore

time.

Every member was specially select
ed and was first-class. The Vaude-
vile bill was well received and each
number roundly applauded.
Features of the evening were songs
by Mrs. Carl Rupp, and the vaude-
vile musical sketch by Rupp and Lin
den, who showed great versatility in
musical ability, in the classical as well
as the musical comedy sketches.
The orchestra, under the direction
Of Carl Rupp, came in for a goodly-
share of the applause during the mu-
sieal numbers of the evening. The
program presented was fully up to
expectations in every way and the
management presented a vaudeville
program seldom seen in cities Of this
size.

The ladies voting this year in the
Primaries makes a sure thing for
those candidates who have been in
favor of the Drys, and have proven
themselves 100 per cent American. The
ladies can be depended upon for clean
politics. Their entrance into the 20
litical game will purify politics. The
day has come for better things. We all
want it. We all expect to get it with
the help Of the women. The pro-Ger-
man element, the obnoxious Socialists.

ATTENTION!
POTATO
GROWERS

Since the State Fair at Milwaukee
precedes the Central Wisconsin State
Fair at Marshfeld, it will be necessary
to get the potato samples for the
Wood County Exhibit direct from the
growers rather than selecting the best
from the entries at the MarshfeId
Fair. All potato varieties must be
in samples Of at least one peck. Sc
lect potatoes that are true to the va
riety type, of medium size and of good
quality. Smooth, even potatoes, free
from disease and damage, and uni
form as to size and shape show up to
good advantage. IF it is possible to
remove the dirt from the potatoes with
soft brush-this is preferable to the
washing which tends to destroy the
natural color or bloom. This same
rule may apply to the preparation of
all root crops for show purposes. Sc
lect a good sample or two of your po-
tatoes same with the variety
name as well as your name and ad-
dress and leave it with your banker
before August 25th. We will be able
to gather the samples much easier in
this manner than in visiting each
farm in the County. Mr.. Potato |
Grower-Wood County is one of the
best potato counties of the State-let
US demonstrate the fact by showing
our best at the State Fair.

JOURNAL SUPPORTS BROWNE

The Stevens Point Daily Journal
supports Congressman Edward E.
Browne, editorially, as. follows:
"The Journal thinks there can be no
question of the duty Of good citizens
in the Republican primaries. Browne
is by far the best qualified of the three
candidates. He has years of expert
ence. He is square. He is fair. He
is the peoples congressman. He has
never attained the Washington point
of view, and despite his long service
at the national capitol, he has never
forgotten that he is there to represent
the prevailing views of his constitu-
ents in this district modified only so
fas as may be needed to make them
workable and just. Mr. Eberlein, who 4
years ago ran on a platform of COMPEL
ing President Wilson to be more favor
able to Germany and two years ago
opposed Browne because the latter did
not vote for war, is this year, so far
as We can get at his opinions, on a
platform of repeal or notification of
the 18th amendment. We don't want
to do Mr.. Eberlein an injustice, and
so we suggest that anyone who thinks
the big issue in this campaign is to get
drinks with kick in them ought to
vote for him. Those who are salts
fed to let the amendment remain, or
who do not care to raise the liquor
issue again, should vote for Browne" +"

WALTER C. MUELLER

Lieut.. Walter c.. Mueller, candidate
for Sheriff on the Republican ticket,
is Marshfeld boy who served over
seas in the World War; He has never
been in politics before, but this is in
his favor. He frankly states he is no
politician and that the qualifications
he has should fit him for office regard
less of this non-political aspect of
his career. He has had assurances
from large numbers of ex-service men
of their hearty support and reports
large amount of sentiment in his fa-
vor because he has not been affiliated
with the Sheriff's office in the past.
He is a friend to labor, he states, as
he is a workingman now, and has al
ways had to work. 81 cannot get a.
way to campaign before the primary
as I should like, because of my work,
but feel I will get the support of bu-
siness men, laboring n1en and farmers
on account of not spending all of my,
time campaigning. The time has come
when public office should be the re-
ward of merit rather than go to the
highest bidder"
Mr.. Mueller is a tall, athletically
built young man, who looks as though
he would finish any job he started out
to do. He has won large number of
votes in the Rapids already, and his
chances are good, according to his
friends, who are enthusiastic over his
candidacy.

PORT EDWARDS
Community
AUDITORIUM

Wednesday, August IS, 1920, will
be date that the people of Port Ed
wards will remember with great deal
of pleasure. Because it was the date
upon which their large new Communi-
ty Auditorium was opened to the pub
lie. It's grandeur and magnitude is
far in advance of the present require
ment of the village. Those who are
responsible for its erection have pro-
vided for the future 1t certainly
stands there as monument to thrift
and enterprise of the people of Port
Edwards. 1t is none too good or too
large for their future growth and de-
velopment. The opening entertain
ment was one that will long be re-
membered by those who were present.
The Auditorium was filled to it's ca
pacity-over 700-made up of citizens
from Port Edwards, Nekoosa and Of
Grand Rapids, who had come to con-
graduate the people of Port Edwards
upon CHe OpSillilS Ol Inelf new COm-
munity Auditorium. The stage with
its electrical lighting, stage settings
and beautiful curtains, were delight
full to the eye and pleasing in their
combination and effects. One was
greatly affected by the grandeur of
the ensemble.
The asbestos curtain rose at $50
p. m. upon a scene that was magnif-
cent, which impressed favorably the
large audience present, with such sur
prise that they were awestricken by
it's array of soft electric lighting midst
the beautiful stage settings, after
which they cheered most heartily the
opening piece of music by the Orches-
ira. The orchestra consisted of 10
men, all artists upon their various mu-
sical instruments. The program was
carried out as advertised as follows:

schools and whatever is dearest to wo-
mems hearts, so before they realize
she has expounded the wonderful plat
form on which Republican politics
stand and has shown them that it is
not only their conscientious duty to
register and vote but a great privi-
lege to do so. Mrs. Rewman attended
the National Convention in Chicago
and knows at first hand every detail
of her chosen party's principles. She
is on numerous Boards as the appoin-
tee of the Governor of South Dakota,
her especial interest being in the bet
tering of conditions in State Schools
and Institutions.
She reports much enthusiasm among
the women of the West although in
order to register and vote the wives
of farmers and ranch men have many
physical difficulties to ov9rcone in
the way Of distances and poor trans
portation. Very different Mrs. Rev
man says from the women who merely
step into an automobile and whisk
around the corner to the polls. How
ever, these splendid pioneer women
are eager to know how things are 60
ing all over the land and are interested
in the most minute details.
At present Mrs. Rewman is on her
way to Sedalia, Mo-, where she will
relieve Mrs. Frank Dodsin, who is
speaking during the first week of the
State Fair. At headquarters, Mrs |
Rewman is in constant demand so that |
the Speakers Bureau have her dated |
up for weeks ahead. Her message is
for every American woman to regis
ter and vote, to study the record of the |
Republican party in the past and on
that past to pledge allegiance in the
future.
