HO()SIEIRS AT
BARRON MEET
Ladysmith Picked For Next
Years Meeting Place Of
Indianas

The first annual gathering OF North
erin Wisconsin Indiana settlers held, i'll
Barron last Sunday brought out Il
splendid attendance Of former HOos-
iers, and many old-time friends had
the pleasure OF a renewal of acquaint-
ance. Not alone was Barron county
well represented. but many Of the
neighbOring counties sent splendid del
e&ati0ns that helped greatly to make
the picnic a success, the delegation
from Ladysmith and Rusk county top
ping all outside counties in point of at
tendance, though Dunn, Polk and
Burnett counties sent a number Of rep
resentatiyes
Speeches, singing and band music
furnished Il splendid program Of en-
tertainment. and the big picnic din
ner at noon was one of the chief fea-
lures of the day.
George Kilmer had the distinction
of being the oldest Hoosier settler in
this county. Mr.. Kilmer came here
from Indiana in 1870, and has made
Barron county his home continuously
since that time.
At the business meeting a per
manent organization was perfected,
and it was voted to hold the next pic
mic at Ladysmith. - Barron News
Shield.

as soon as | begin to read, and my
wife comes and tells me my snoring is
disturbing the neighbors."
'It's that way with everything we
look forward to-" observed the hotel
keeper sadly. "Man always will be,
but is never blest, as some half-baked
poet remarked. Young Gooseworthy
was in here last evening, bubbling over
with happiness. There wasn't any
body around, so he took me into his
confidence. He's going to marry
Gwendolin Jimalong, next month, and
he's perfectly satisfied that his mar
ried life will be one long stretch of
sunshine. He seems to have the idea
that he's going to do something orig
inal when he gets married, but the
idea isn't new. Men have been getting
married ever since Christopher dis
covered Columbus, Ohio, and every
doggone man jack of them had the
idea that everlasting bliss was going
to be inaugurated on the wedding day.
81 listened to Gooseworthy for three
hours, and hadn't the heart to say
anything that would dampen his en-
thusiasm. His twittering recalled the
long vanished days when | was get
ting ready to be married. felt about
it then just as he does now. thought
the parson opened the gates of para
disc when he joined two loving hearts.
My wife lived up to all the plans and
specifications. and was and is one OF
the best women in the United States,
but hadn't been married three
months before I had a sneaking con-
viction that the man who gets married
is a chump.
"a good many optimists say that
married man doesn't need any more
money than a single one, if he marries
the right sort of woman, but they
might as well go to the blackboard
and demonstrate that two and two
make two instead of four. | fell for
that cheerful theory when | was mar
ried. I was earning enough to keep
myself comfortably, and never had
any financial worries. / could have
been buried for less money than it
took to be married, and the expenses
from that time forward were double
what they used to be, although my
wife was so economical she used to
make waists and such things for her
self out of my supersnnuated shirts.
worthy don't look around them, and
contemplate the detected appearance
Of the majority of husbands. But even
IL they did, it wouldn't do them any
good, I suppose, for they are full OF
pipe dreams, and they think the girls
they are going to marry are different
from all other girls, and that they will
prove exceptions to the general rule.
II had wise old uncle in those hal
cyOn days, and about q week before
the wedding day, he backed me into q
corner and handed me dust-proot
package of wisdom. He tried to lead
me into taking a sensible view of the
future. He talked about the cares anC
responsibilities that would be mine
after the wedding, and wanted tt
know if I felt equal to them. He tried
to show me that I wasn't going tt
marry an angel, but a human being
| like myself, with a human beings
faults and frailties.

FIGHT ON LAW CONTINUED.

Madison, Wis. March 9.-The fight
for repeal of the personal property
offset to the income tax will be car
ried to the floor of the legislature as
a result of the recommendation of the
assembly tax committee Tor indefinite
postponement of the Hahsan bill
made with two members. Assembly
man Hanson and Caldwell, dissenting.
A close division is expected in the
battle that will take place to save one
of the outstanding taxation measures
of the session.
Repeal of the personal property
offset would bring an additional $4,-
O0O. 08O Of revenue annually to the
state according to figures presented
by the state tax commtssion-Yhich
has gone on record as favoring the
measure. .
The governor asks its adoption In
his first message to the Legislature.
Two tax exemption bills, the Good
man bill to raise the lower limit for
taxing of earGngs from $500 to 81
600 for unmarried men. from $1,000
to $2,4o0 for married men and from
5000 to $500 for each child. and the
Czerwinski proposal to increase e1.
emption of children from 5000 to
$500, we're recommended for death.
