the marksmen was markswOman who
proved her ability to shoot straight,
for i'm one of the contests she won from
the men.
The prizes shot for were pigs and
turkeys. The target was spot about
the size of silver dollar, and the dis
Vance was 100 yards, which, to give
ltou an idea of the space separating
the marksman from the target, is the
length of a standard Ladysmith block
with the width of a street added. The
target used did not hide much of the
scenery, according to the statements
Of one of the -riflemen. Ten persons
would pay quarter apiece for the

VOTE 'YES" ON
MULBERGER LAW
This Law Will Coincide and
Make More Effective Federal
Prohibition Act

Responding to innumerable queS-
tions from all parts of the state, the
Wisconsin Anti-SalOon League today
made public the following statement
regarding the referendum on the Null
berger prohibition enforcement law,
and their attitude thereon:
There is much confusion regarding
the Mulberger law. The Wisconsin
Anti-SalOOn League, which fought this
law, is now supporting it. The recent
leciSiOn of the T.. S. supreme court in
the Manitowoc Wis, cases made one
half of one per cent the Mulberger
definition of intoxicating liquor, plac-
ne it Square1y in accord with the Vol
stead act and catching the brewers in
heir own trap. \ vote for the Null
berger law now is vote for One-half
IF one per cent, and therefor a vote
to instruct Wisconsin congressman to
uphold the Volstead law
The Mulberger law. started out by
saying that beverage should not be
considered Intoxicating unless it con
tanned more than two and one-half
Dercentum of alcohol by wright
(nearly three and quarter by vol
Ime). 1t then says. but if the Con
ress of the United States shall here
fter. by a valid act which shall be-
.ome The law of the land and he para
mount to any state laws on the sub
iect. define the words Intoxicating liq-
uor' as used in Article rs of the Con
StitutiOn of the United States, then
such definition, from the time such act
If Congress becomes operative, shall
be the definition thereof under this
subdivision.
Congress did thereafter define intoX-
icating liquor in the VOlstead act as
one-half of one per cent by volume.
The Z. S. supreme court declared the
Volstead law was a valid act, was the
law of the land. was paramount to
any state laws on the subject" There
fore the language of the Mulberger law
itself makes the VOlstead definition
Dne-half of one per cent? the ALulber-
ger definition Therefore a vote for the
MulBerger law is a vote for one-half
If one per cent and for the N0lstead
law standard Therefore. the WiScOn-
sin Anti Saloon League supports che
Nulbergcr law and asks voters to mark
heir ballots Yes X, that chapter 55e

IDEAS PICKED UP
AT MUNICIPAL MEET

One of the things which Mayor Luell
learned at the meeting of the Wiscon
sin League of Municipalities at La
Crosse last week is that all cities must
install the septic tank method Of dis
posing of sewage, instead of running
sewage into streams, as Ladysmith
and many other cities are doing at
present.
The law provides for this and the
state board of health has the power to
enforce it. 1t is not the intention OF
the state authorities to enforce the
law to the financial embarrassment of
municipalities, but compliance with the
law will be brought about gradually,
and it is expected that Ladysmith will
have to install the septic method with
!n the next few years.
When the septic plant~is adopted, it
will probably be put in in the south
ern part of the city, as the general
slope of the land is toward the south
and proper drainage could be obtained
in that direction at less expense than
IN other directions. Probably all of
the established system in Ladysmith can
lie utilized without disturbance. ex-
tept possibly. the short line running
from Miner-av to the river on East
Third-st.. where the outlet of the sewer
system into the river is now eStab-
liShed

Question of Purchasing Port
able Houses For Temporary
Use To Be Considered
WILL USE SECOND
FLOOR OF CITY HALL
Kadlec Dance Hall Considered But Not
Thought To Be Suitable For
Purpose

To provide for the OrcrcrOWded con-
ditiOn of the city schools, partial re-
lief was agreed upon at recent CON
ference by the board of education and
the city council when the council de-
cided to allow the use Of the second
floor of the city hall for school pur-
poses.
As the city hall will only partially
solve the problem of providing room
for the overflow of the schools. the
question of purchasing portable houses
for Temporary use will be considered
at public meeting at the gymnasium
tonight.
The school board has the plans and
cost figures on portable houses planned
especially for school purposes, which
will be submitted for consideration at
the meeting tonight. Since the hOus-
ing problem has been acute all over the
country. cities have been compelled to
use portable school houses tempOrar-
lily and Ladysmith may solve its prob
lem for the time being by the use of
them.
The Kadlec hall on East Eighth-st
was considered for awhile for school
purposes. but the acquiring OF this
place is not now considered feasible.
as the News Budget now understands
the situation People interested in the
school housing problem should attend
the meeting tonight.

PRISONERS SAW
OUT OF JAIL
Alleged Forger and Former
ParOled Prisoner Make Neat
Getaway

Ed Peach, alleged forger, and John
Shadbolt. under SENTENCE to term in
the Green Bay reformatory, sawed
their way to liberty from the county
jail Saturday night. They have not
been caught. but it is believed at the
sheriff's office that it is only a matter
of Il short time when both men will be
located and retaken.
The men evidently had help from the
outside. for a storm window had been
removed by turning the buttons that
held it in place and hole had been
made in the wire screen, through
which it is believed saw was passed
by an accOmpiice, to the men inside.
The getaway was made through a win
dow on the south side of the Jail. The
report that a saw was fashioned from
a table knife and the iron bar was
sawed through with this instrument is
not believed by the sheriff The fact
that there must have been an accom-
plice as evidenced by the removal of
the storm window from the outside
would lead to the belief that the one
who did this also provided the tools
for cutting the iron bar Only one
bar was cut.
