OF WISCONSIN

You know how during the war the
.PROFITEERS lied about LaFollette;
how their paid newspapers tried to
DISGRACE him and drive him out of
public life And you know WHY
because he has been the ONE MAN
that has fought for the welfare of the
COMMON PEOPLE and FOUGHT
HARD, and ALL THE TIME. Natur-
ally he made enemies of the plumber
bund, and when the time came for the
profteers to reap their harvest from
the misfortunes of the world, they did
not want Bob La Toilette in the way.
You know what they did to Bob La
Toilette and how they scared many
Progressives off the track. And you
know what they did to the PEOPLE
what they are doing now
WELL, WAKE UP FOR A GOOD
FIGHT!
Bob La Toilette was here in Madi-
son resting up to go under the sur
geons' knife at Rochester, but con-
trary to the advice of his physicians
he has gone back to Washington to
be in at the finish of the League of
Nations fight.
But Bob's heart is back in Old Wis
consin. He wants to know whether
she PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BACK
UP HIS WORK IN WASHINGTON.
IF they do. it will put the FEAR OF
GOD into those who are preparing for
another great crime-to put all of the
cost of the war on the backs of the
common people.
GET IN THE GAME
| Get ont and TELL YOUR NEIGH
BOR about that fight = SPEAK
RIGHT UP-TELL THE TRUTH!
Keep within the law, but don't let any
| one SCARE you into silence.
ANOTHER THING
Bob is poor, and his friends are poor
men, but they are MANY. 1t takes
money to- advertise. Let US all chip IN
who can afford to, and help to make a
campaign of education. We want to
elect delegates to the National Repub-
lican Convention for YOU.
Won't you kick in with a dollar OF
two to put this thing over? 1t is get
/ ting late-you will have to HURRY
/ The other fellows have unlimited cash
and have an ORGANIZATIONS OF
BIG PROFITEERS with headquar-
tors at Milwaukee. They have beer
on the job long time They have the
KEPT PRESS.
Send your contributions to SOL LIE
VITAN, Banker, Madison, Wisconsin
and he will recent for them.

travagant ideas into the minds of the
+ little children. Many of these women
are even waiting on table in restau
rants-about the only thing left which
they are capable of doing. America,
rich in everything, can not help feel
ing of sympathy for these unfortun-
ate women who have had everything
and now have nothing, just as we SYM
pathize with all who are struggling
in the depths of poverty, whether
high born or of plebian birth. But will
the lesson it teaches be taken home?
Will women learn that from infancy
every person should be taught to be
self supporting in one way or another
that the day of the drones is rapidly
drawing to a close?
Parents of this community can not
take too much interest in our public
schools. Too many of US are content
to just let things rock along, trusting
to the teacher to do that which should
be encouragement as we'll as the pupil,
and that both will work truer to form
if we extend our cooperation by tax
ing an active interest in school affairs.
The hornets are beginning to build
their nests again across the water, and
it is only question of time when
some one will be stirring them up. On
the surface everything is serene and
lovely and the league of nations is
expected to do wonders, but the fellow
who digs down finds growing mass
Of discomfort and suspicion. There
is no one country that is willing to
take another at face value, each being
afraid that the other is concealing
some secret card up his sleeve. On
paper there is apparent harmony, but
in reality there is none. The lid is
due to blow off again in the not distant
future, and we of America should keep
out.
