morning at the hospital from injuries

SMALL LOSSES REPORTED

The BONN saloon at -Four Corners
was entered by burglars early Sunday
1t was given out that they
secured about $50 in cash and some
checks and merchandise, This was
hardly worth the risk, a reasonable
burglar would think. There is an epi-
demic lately of robberes of country
saloons. 1t may be that the intruders
are looking for something stronger
than checks useless to them and the
small amount of cash likely to be left
in the till. If they are successful in
this quest the proprietor in each case
is careful not to make any mention of
his loss in this respect in reporting the
burglary.

MO0NSHlNE PLANT DESTROYED

An officer found a still in the woods
in the extreme northern part of the
county on Monday of last week. The
men at work there had evidently just
left the camp as there were signs of
very recent occupation of the place. A
raid planned for the next day was de
layed until Wednesday and then depu-
ties from the sherffs office visited the
scene. The still was there but the
moonshiners had evidently got wind of
the contemplated visit and had desert
ed the place. They left about so gal
Ions of mash. The still and the mash
were destroyed. The officers had re
ceived information that there was
about 1900 gallons of whisky cached
in the woods but if that is true the
hiding of it was good job as it could
not be located. The equipment de
stroyed was a big outfit and was To-
Gated in dense woods,

IN MUNICIPAL COURT

Fred LOherger was arrested some
time ago for running his motor with
out the muffler in operation, contrary
to law. He lately moved to Oconto
and last Thursday he pleaded guilty
over the long distance phone and
promised to send down the Sl5.46,
which the court informed him he owed.
Now if the police will arrest a few
OF the idiots who in defiance of law,
blow horns at night to apprise some
one in the house of the fact that they
are at the curb the general public will
thank them.
Officers had Emil Lindeman and
Frank Carpenter, Saloonkeepers, in
court last Friday, charged with selling
strong waters, as our fathers called it.
Lindeman has been running the for
mer Schuette saloon on Washington
street near Tenth for some time and
admitted that he had been selling
booze pretty promiScuously ever since
he assumed charge. He was fined $50
and costs.
Carpenter has been running the Das-
sey place at Commercial and Sixth
streets. His two immediate predeces-
SorS at the place are serving time, one
under the federal law at Milwaukee
and the other here in the county Jail.
both for selling the stuff. Carpenter
was loath to admit that he had been
dispensing moon but when he saw the
officers had it on him he confessed and
paid $3.50 and costs.
Both of these saloonk eepers said that
they were buying the whskey from
stranger who comes through here in
high powered car and who sells it in
gallon jugs at from $40 to Sl2 per
gallon. Others have said the same
thing. This mysterious stranger is
badly wanted not only by the saloon
Keepers out of goods but by the au-
thorities bent upon breaking up the IL
licit trade here. There is a suspicion
that the dealers know more about him
than they reveal, either as to existence
or non-eXistence.

lection of his evenings performance.
and to avoid debating the matter he
paid Sl0.sd and wended his way out.
A car-ferry hand claiming the name
of O'Brien, honored in song, story and
history, had cargo aboard that
caused him to tack into the wind as he
went through the street traffic Satur-
day night In court Monday he had
$40 on his person and the court did
not leave him enough to buy package
of tobacco.

woe man, was killed and Oscar f.. Lar
son, also a former ManitowOc man,
was severely injured when motor
cycle they we're riding was hit by an
automobile just this side of Manitowoc
on the Pcshtigo road last Sunday. The
two young men with the motorcycle
and a side car were going into Marin
ctte and the automobile with four pas
sengers, and William Marineau driy-
ing, was coming out They met "head-
on" on curve with both going at a
good clip.
Osulson was probably instantly killed
as the physicians said his neck was
broken Larson was severely injured,
and latest reports indicated that he
would probably recover.
The customary claims were made by
both sides that the other fellow was at
fault Both Larson and Marineau
claimed to have been on the right side
of the road when the collision Oc-
cured.
Osulson was brought up in this
county but has been away from here
for years except for brief periods He
got into some difficulty over his draft
record but proved that he had enlisted

EDUCATIONAL.
(By LILLIAN L. CHLOuPEKl

School Board members and teach
ers should read the following article
very carefully. Any district board
employing a senior teacher should
be very careful to find out whether
the teacher comes under the new
law, The only ones that may be
omitted this year are the teachers
who made their contracts after July
Z, 1921.
The five per cent should be deduct
ed each month and sent to r. f.
Loveland, Secretary of Public School
Retirement Board, Madison, Wis.
Failure to comply with this law
may cause the district to lose its
state money.

Henry c. Payne expresses the opin-
ion that the tours of w. j. Bryan have
weakened his cause. That is all non
sense. Bryan's oratory is a power. 1t
is such power that if Bryan should
follow out what has been foreshadowed
in his speeches, raise class discord,
there 4 danger ahead, not so much the
danger of his election as the spirit of
d,scord ne will raise. 1t is not wise to
helittle the effects of Bryan's oratory.

Teachers Retirement Provisions

To all teachers and officers in the
State Educational System:
The new State Retirement System
which was created at the last session
of the legislature became effective
July 7, 1921.
The new law supercedes the Teach
ers' Insurance and Retirment Fund
Law. The retirement system is ex-
tended to include all teachers in all
state educational institutions except
the public schools in the City of Mil
waukee.
Hereafter no teacher will be as
sessed for the benefit of general
fund, but will deposit to an individ-
ual account for his or her own benefit.
All teachers in the system who have
been assessed under the old law will
be credited with the amount of such
assessments, with interest
All annuities granted under the old
law will be paid without reduction,
and all rights and expectations cre-
ated under the old law are fully pro-
tected.
Junior teachers are those who had
not reached the twenty-ffth birth
day on or before July /, preceding
the opening of school.
JUNIOR teachers whether or not they
were assessed under the old law, are
not required to make deposits
Senior teachers are those who had
reached the twenty-ffth birthday on
or before July |, preceding the open
ing Of school.
Every senior teacher deposits five
per cent of salary as follows:
The official who pays the salary of
a senior teacher is required to with
hold five per cent of the amount due
on every pay day and forward it i'm
mediately to the retirement board
at Madison to be deposited in such
teachers individual account. Checks
should be made payable to the order
of the Treasurer of the State of
Wisconsin. Liberal state deposits
will be added to the teachers depos-
its. Each senior teacher is there
fore vitally interested in having these
deposits made promptly each pay day
in order to secure the full benefit of
the state deposits.
The law provides that in any case
when contract was made before Idly
T. 1921, no deduction without the
consent of the teacher shall be made
during the life of such prior cont act,
in excess Of the deduction authorized
by law when the contract was made,
but as the state deposit is based on
the teachers deposit, every senior
teacher will realize the advantage of
entering at once on the five per cent
deduction.
No application necessary, no for
FIXTURES, no chance to stay out, or to
be left out. Everybody will get a
square deal
Teachers can help IN administering
the law by replying promptly to all
requests for information; by obtain
ing the newspaper supplement when
it appears and studying chapter 450;
and by helping school officers to com
| ply with the law Those who do not
have access to the newspaper supple.

A resolution was introduced and re-

board has estimates now of S465, 900
