Wisconsin was the first state
in the Union in which women
have every right possessed by
male citizens under civil law
through Gov. Blaine's signature
to the women's rights bill. The
text of the new law is Women
shall have the same rights and
privileges under the law as men
in the exercise of suffrage, free
dom of contract, choice of res
idence for voting purposes, jury
service, holding office, holding
and conveying property, care and
custody Of children and in all
other respects. Various courts
executive and administrative
officers shall construe the stat
utes where the masculine gender
is used 10 include the feminine
gender unless such construction
will deny to females the special
protection and privileges which
they now enjoy for the general
welfare. The courts, executive
and administrative officers shall

Every Want Supplied At
Home.

A live town, with live merch-
ants, invariably affects real es-
tate and farm values and the de-
STABILITY of that community as
a place TO live. BY the people of
a community continually trading
with the local merchants the
spirit of cooperation is born.
The merchant in turn, almost
without exception, is made to
realize the necessity of having
complete lines of goods. The
daily paper, the telephone and
rural delivery have inaugurated
a new system of merchandising,
impossible under former condit-
ions, and, as a rule, people of the
different communities are enab-
led to buy all their wants and
needs in their home town. Care
full investigation has proved be-
yond a doubt that the averag e
small city merchant is as thor
oughly alive to the wants and
needs of his patrons as are the
tradesmen of the larger cities.
The one thing only that is need
ed TO make the cooperative
scheme a success, and thus quality
merchandise, is the united pat
ronage of the buyers of that par
ticular community. Some may
say that they are unable to sat
isfy their wants in the smaller
city or town. If such is the case
it is because the merchants of
that town have not had the pat
ronage necessary to Justify their
carrying the added stocks. At
least this is the case in nine out
of ten such complaints. On the
other hand, there is the possible
chance, but only in very rare in
stances, of a merchant who will
not see the trend of the times
and who will not modernize his
stocks TO meet the new condit-
ions. And, this being the case,
there will be but a very short
time elapse before that merchant
has of necessity been either for
ced to see the light or his trade
has been assimilated by a more
progressive man and the oppor-
tunity of a good trading place
afforded the buyer. There is no
town in the country immune to
the locating of Tive wires" (c)

The Town Is The Center.

The modern town is not only
the trading center of the COM
munity. but it is the social, ed
ucational and religious center as
well. Just how far this town
will advance or 90 back in the
scale of a towns growth depends
altogether upon the people of
that particular city or town.
Each town is a community cent
er. If the people of the center
of things are alive to the posi-
bilities of the community it will
advance; if not, there is moth
ing under the sun that will keep
that town alive. Another and
more progressive town will
spring up and with more rapid
methods of today's travel almost
any distance if made short in
comparison with that of the yes
terday. There is greater need
of civic effort today than ever
before. No town, however, well
intrenched, is immune to the con-
slant reaching out of other cities
and towns after the trade and
the progressive spirit and ele-
ment./ 1t is in keeping with the
modern idea TO be ever vigilant.
Keep your lamps trimmed and
burning" Not for even a mo-
ment allow an opportunity that
will advance the welfare of your
home town to escape you. 1T
it's a good thing we have il" can
not he beaten as a community
slogan. This applies to the mer-
chandising and the civic appeals
of the town as well. The town
that draws and secures the trade
of all the people of the commun-
ity is assured of success. (c)

At Fort Armstrong.

Comedy and tragedy are some
times closely akin that it is hard
to distinguish one from the other.
Those who have never lived in a
New York boarding house will find
much to amuse them in such an in
stitution as depicted in Maurice
Tourneur's latest success, Foolish
Matrons." which opened four day
run at the Fort Armstrong theatre
today. But those who have really
lived amid stewed prunes and
hash; red table cloths and old
maid gossips will sympathize with
Doris May. who. as a bride in the
story, comes to just such a place to
live.
The story depicts in vivid man
ner the lives of people who have
lived and suffered amid the granite
walls and the bright lights of that
city of broken promises. The great
underlying theme of the tale is
marriage and, while it is not in
tended as preachfnent, it is bound
to carry its message to many young
men and women who are facing the
same problems as the players in
the production.
Foolish Matrons" is enacted by
an all star cast including Hobart
Bosworth. Doris May, Mildred Man
ming, Kathleen Kirkham, Wallace
