LETTER FROM
THOS. SALISBURY

From a letter received from Thos
SALISBURY, dated Box C, Waupun,
Wis, we publish the following taken
from the letters contents: 81 am get
ting on here first-rate. Ny health is
quite as good as can be expected at
my age(74. I am very comfortable.
Have everything necessary except
liberty. My quarters are good, light
and airy. Am we'll fed and nicely
clothed. | have a light position in
the twine shop as Runner; i. e., l at
tend to the wants of about 40 men as
to furnishing them with water for
drinking, and also for washing as
they have that habit here. Also with
clean clothes. We employ about 80
men in the shop and put out from 7
to 8 tons per day. It is a pleasant
occupation A man who behaves
himself need not be ill-used. We get
our good times. We have a full doub-
le baseball team which we enjoy Sat
urday afternoons during summer and
generally have visiting team to play
against US. We have a good band and
orchestra to furnish music during
dinner time. | have had the honor of
being a member of the orchestra for
while with violin. In winter we
have movie show every Sunday af-
ternoon. Service in Chapel in the
morning. My term is nearly half ex-
pired, and am pleased to say have not
yet been reduced below 1st grade, so
| do not wear the conventional stripe
and am hoping to get through with a
perfect record"

WORK ON
new bridge

Preliminary work in preparation
for the building of the new bridge
across the river here is being pushed
along rapidly. Second Ave. North is
Occupied by large hopper for con-
crete materials and by other needed
materials and TOOLS This street is to
be closed to traffic and will be the
main base of operations for the con-
struction crew. Considerable mater
ial is also being yarded at the west
end of the bridge, in the river bank
park.
The coffer-dam for the west pier is
being placed this week. It is an
nounced that the north half of the
new bridge will be built with the old
structure still in use, but moved a
few feet down-river Then the new
part will be in use while the old one
IS being taken away and the other
half of the new one built. The chan
mel of the river is to be widened to
accommodate the flow of water, as it is
claimed this is necessary by reason
of the number of large piers that are
to be used. This will require the re-
moval of the MacKinnon Block, it is
said, Plans are under consideration
to make a park of the site of this
building after the bridge is finished.

So, WHATS
THE Use

We ran across a pretty good card
quotation from the French which we
republish to preserve it, for it was
splendid reading for the Soldier boys
i'll the recent World War:
'You have two alternatives-eith
you are in cantonment or sent over
seas, If you are in cantonment, you
have nothing to worry about If you
are sent overseas, you have two al
ternatives-you are in camp or at the
front. If you are in camp, you have
nothing to worry about. If you are
at the front, you have two alternat-
ives-either you are in reserve or on
the fighting line. If you are in Sc
serve, you have nothing to worry a.
bout. If you are on the fighting line,
you have two alternatives s-either
ycu fight or you don't. If you don't,
you have nothing to worry about. If
you do, you have two alternatives
either you get hurt or you don't If
you don't, you have nothing to worry
about. If you get hurt, you have two
alternatives-either you get slightly
hurt or badly hurt. If slightly, you
have nothing to worry about. If bad
ly, you have two alternatives-eithe
you recover or you don't. If you re-
cover, you have nothing to worry g.
bout, and if you don't, you can't wor-
ry if you want to, so what's the use

WOMEN TAKE COURSE IN PO-
LICE WORK

Twenty-Five women received their
diplomas from the police -women's
school of New York recently and an
authority on the subject says of the
service:
"The greatest opportunity in the
world lies in this work, for their ser
vice to society is unlimited.
"a woman serving as a member of
the police force has splendid chance
to do follow up work for girls and
women brought into police court, and
she can accomplish wonders in the su-
pervision of dance halls, moving pic
ture houses and other places of anus
ement.
"She is brought into close relations
with the public health department es-
pecially in connection with social dis
eases as affecting the health of wom-
en- and children.
"But it is il regard to children that
the policewoman has a wonderful op-
portunity. 1t is her duty to insti-
tute Investigations which tend to help
children, to prevent delinquency and
crime. In juvenile courts her work
is of great value.
The qualifications for this work are
of the highest order. One must have
good health, high moral character,
and an attractive personal appearance.
She must have keen powers of OBJ
servation, good judgment and tact.
but high as are these qualifca-
tlons, three hundred cities in the Uni
ted States have established this
branch of police work, and the de-
mand for workers is far in excess of
the supply.

WHERE SIZE
DOESN'T Count

About the hardest job that any per-
son can undertake at this time is that
of the United States prohibition Of
ficer. Many men of determination
and courage have given up in the
face of inevitable failure
The new prohibition . enforcement
officer for the district of California,
which by the way is understood to be
one of the hardest of all, is Mrs. Glad
Us K. Warburton. She is a woman
of much feminine charm and refine
,ment; and many are inclined to. look
upon her appointment as a neat little
Ijoke. What they do not seem to know
is that she is also a woman with a
will of steel and of unfiagging devo-
tion to duty. There is reported to be
a considerable prospect that the joke
will prove less ludicrous that it now
appears to the enemies of the law.
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1921-08-25
SURPLUS WAR
EXPLOSIVE IN
big DEMAND

About thirteen thousand pounds Of
Picric Acid, the surplus war expios:
i've that the Department of Agricul
ture is offering to farmers for lanC
| clearing purposes, have been ordered
by Wood County land clearers tc
| date. This amount, while sufficient
to spoil lot of stumps, is only about
0ne half the amount that will be a.
vailable to Wood County provided
| sufficient orders are received in ad-
vance to cover our allotment. Orders
are coming in steadily each day from
| the several sections of the County
but more speed in regard to the ord
ering would be appreciated.
It is hoped that sufficient orders for
a carload shipment will be totalled
shortly so that the material can be
delivered here as soon as possible. In
view Of the low price of the explosive
which will be nine dollars per hundred
pounds delivered in Wood County,
and also the high quality Of the mat
erial for blasting purposes, sufficient
orders for the carload should have
been received by this time. Wood
County farmers will be unable to buy
explosives at anywhere near the low
price that is placed on the picric acid
by the Department Of Agriculture, SO
his opportunity should be taken up
readily. The low price of nine cents
GER pound allows but little for the
material but goes for the greater part
to cover cost of cartridging, prepara-
ton for stumping purposes and trans
portation charges. In strength the
oicric acid is fully equal and even su-
perior to dynamite, and since it is
handled in practically the same man
ner, the danger in handling is no
greater.
The farmers in the vicinity of Yes
per have shown the greater prompt
ness in ordering the Picric Acid and
are credited with thirty-six orders of
one hundred pounds each. Marsh
field is next with thirty-three and Ar
pin follows with twenty-five. Pitts
vile sends in seven while six orders
come from Rudolph. Five orders
have come from Wisconsin Rapids
farmers, and the same number from
Milladore. Auburndale is also repre-
sented. Hewitt, Lindsey, Dexterville
and City Point may also be men
toned.
Since order blanks have been mail
I'd out to nearly three thousand Wood
County farmers-and there are still
thousands of stumps to be blown out
there should be no difficulty in run
| ming the orders to the carload mark
1t is we'll to remember however, that
Did saying, First come, first served
in ordering Picric Acid, and to hur.
y your order in accordingly.
r. A. Peterson,
| Co. Agr. Agent.

DISARMAMENT SONG

Said Uncle Sam to Johnny Bull,
Il wish we might agree,
Our cruisers should be cargo ships
To sail in every sea-"
Said Johnny Bull to Uncle Sam,
That is all right with me,
You junk your fleet of battleships
And I'll junk mine-maybe."
So it's shinny on your own side
All along the line,
Johnny's for his own side
So I'll attend to mine.
Said Uncle Sam good-naturedly
To Honorable Jap.
Let's quit our building ships anc
For honorable scrap"
Said Toxic to Uncle Sam,
Il do not care rap;
But you quit first, and let me keep
The honorable zap"
So it's shinny on your own side
All along the line,
Skinny on your own side
And I'll attend to mine.
Said Uncle Sam to all the rest,
"It's very plain to me,
Well have to get together soon,
And see what we may see.
Come over, boys, some afternoon
And have a cup of tea,
Let us determine, if we can,
Just why we can't agree"
But it's shinny on your own side
(The conference is fine)
Skinny on your own side
And I'll attend to mine.

GROWS STEADILY

The Wisconsin Rapids Building &
Loan Association is steadily growing,
according to R. M. Gibson, Secretary.
Stock is being sold every day and it
is anticipated that one or two new
building contracts may be let soon, in
addition to the three that are now be-
ing carried out. A pamphlet written
by Mr.. Gibson is being circulated,
which explains the plan and method
of the Association and shows it to
be a good investment, as well as an
enterprise that deserves the support
and encouragement of all good citi-
zens of the town. 1t will be worth
while for anyone who wishes to find
good place in which to invest saw
ings to secure this booklet and read
it carefully.
