SWISS MAY HAVE NAVY

The Swiss Navy must no longer be
are beginning to take it very seriously,
so much so that they are vigorously
protesting against the new Canadian
merchant marine flag, on the ground
that it too closely resembles their
own national ensign, says Harvey's
Weekly. Of course, the Canadian mer-
chant flag is for use only at sea, while
at present the Swiss flag is for use
only on land and SO there should be
no danger of mistaking the one for the
other. But Switzerland is looking to
the construction of three information
al waterways, each of which will give
her facilities for shipping on the high
seas. One lis a canal connecting with
the Rhone and the Mediterranean, an
other is a canal connecting with the
Pc and the Adriatic, and third is a
canal connecting with the Rhine and
the North Sea. 1t is entirely possible
and not improbable that all three of
these designs will be completed, and
that Switzerland will thus become a
maritime Power. The prospect should
be calculated to arouse keener appre-
citation of the unrivalled possibilities
of inland navigation in the United
States.

DARK AGES m BARABOO

The first house was built in Bara-
boo about 80 years ago, the span OF
fourscore lifetime. One is impressed
with the things the pioneers OF that
time-the Woods, Pecks, Rowins and
others-did not have. There was no
railroad, no telegraph, no electric for
ce. no automobiles, no aircraft, no
modern farm machinery, no silos. no
hanks near. no stores filled with trop-
ical fruits, no postoffice nearer than
Prairie du Sac, no paved roads, no
bridges across the Wisconsin river,
no public libraries or no newspapers
nearer than the large cities. 1t was
only about thirty years ago that Bara-
hoo had it's first telephone and cleo
trio light. When one pauses and enum-
crates all the things that have come
during the past eighty years, one is
constrained to think the year 1910 was
in the dark ages of Wisconsin history
Since that time the X-rAy has found
it's way into almost every physicians
office. improved methods of saving the
teeth have come into everyday life,
the movies have become as familiar as
the telegraph or telephone, and many
do not even pause when there is
loud whirr in the air above.
What the people of 1910 had were
Injuries in Roman times ard the Ro-
mans had much that was not thought
of a thousand years before. 1t is con-
coded we are living in wonderful
age but the time will no doubt come
when future generations will look
back ard comment on the ignorance
and slowness of the present Some
may wonder if there is anything left 10
invent but no doubt the evolution OF
civilization will bring forth many won
derful wonders which those living to-
day can never hope to see.

Miss Joan Morse, formerly Of Bara-

Under the present system many re-
sign because they can procure more
money elsewhere, and this is the
worst element in the situation, the
engineer holds. During the past year
the state highway department has
lost about 81 per cent of it's force be-
cause higher salaries were offered
elsewhere. Since the new road law
went into effect some years ago, Sank
county has had four different high
way commissioners, two leaving be-
cause Of better offers. Mr.. Hirst
thinks this is the wrong system
when a good man is on the job keep
him. He holds that it is expensive
to continually educate men for such
places and that the compensation
should be such that those familiar
with the work remain for many years.
It will be a great loss to the state

er field. He has aided in placing Wis

WHY A. R.. HIRST RESIGNED

A. R. Hirst has resigned as engi-
neer in the state highway department
because he thinks the salaries of many
who are spending the money on road
Improvement are not adequately paid.
The salary of Mr. Hirst has been ST.,
500 but many of those in connection
with the highway department are re-
ceiving decidedly less. The money to
be spent in Wisconsin the present
year amounts to the staggering. sum
of $25,OOO,0OO and Mr. Hirst believes
those responsible for the expenditure
of so much money should be we'll paid.
With his experience and ability, no
doubt the engineer could command a
salary of $4,000 or $4,000 a year.
Mr.. Hirst also believes those at the
head of the highway department in
the counties should be men of wide
experience and should be well paid.
He thinks the director of the work
should be an engineer. a good business
man, and one able to handle men.
All men cannot do this and to find
such men of experience for every
county would be an impossibility.
In Sank county the amount to be
expended in 1921 is about 100000.
