FEW OPPOSE T. B.
BUT THEY ARE
HARD TO HANDLE

Only few people are opposed to
regulating traffic in tuberculous live
stock. but their opposition is some
times effective, and several cases OF
the kind have been traced by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. However, the department believes
that cattle dealers who do not favor
tuberculosis eradication are influenced
by selfish motives and do no; repre-
sent the true spirit of livestock own
ers and others interested in healthier
and better domestic animals.
Although many States have suitable
laws TO protect farmers and other
live stock owners against traffic in
tuberculosis animals, the, practice
continues in some localities. Here is
'ar instance In Massachusetts. a
pureBred Holstein COW. valued al
500, was disposed of as a reactor (;
hut instead of being slaughtered or
segregated. she was later sold To a
State institution for $500. The herd
at this institution had previously
been free of tuberculosis. 1t was be
ing improved by the purchase of new
animals, and every available precau-
ton was taken to see that they were
healthy. Recently this herd was re-
tested and three reactors were found
one of which was the COW in question
All showed well-marked LESSONS of
tuberculosis on post-mortem exami-
nation.
There is no law ,oy, regulation in
Massachusetts preventing the sale or
requiring the segregation of reactors

WHENHOPE
IS DEAD

An epidemic of divorce is one a.
mong the multitude of plaques that
have come upon Germany of late. 1t
is stated that there is an average of
one divorce there at present for evevy
eight marriages.
Worse yet, the suits are in nearly
all cases being brought by the men,
who allege that the women have nrok-
en- their marriage vows 1t is thought
that the leading cause is the hasty war
marriages of few years ago followed
by the long absence of the husband at
the front. However, it is claimed that
the women are showing new feeling
of independence lately, and that hey
are running after pleasure and luxury
and displaying a lack of moral re-
straint.

Public Speech Not Dead.

Woodrow Wilson says The age OF
oratory has not passed nor will it pass
as long as there are human rights
to be defended. AS long as there are
human rights to be defended; as long
as there are great interests to be
guarded; as long. as the welfare OF
Nations is a matter for discussion
so long will public speaking have its
place"
The greatest public forum of~today
is the Chautauqua platform. In 1920
there were 511 lecturers employed
constantly in the Lyceum and Chau-
tauqua and these 511 lecturers deliv-
cred 46,369 lectures. More people
attended Chautauqua lecture courses
than attended any other public meet
ings with the exception Of the
churches and the moving pictures.
There was an aggregate Of 35,0O0,0OO
admissions in American Chautauquas
in 1920 and practically everyone of
these heard a lecture Of some kind
or another at the Chautauqua.
The Chautauqua platform is the
only free platform, free from sectari-
anism, partisanism and sectionalism.
ANY man who has a real message can
hus get an audience and a hearing.
This is one reason why the Chautau
1ua movenmet will live and grow.

duced, carries an appropriation of
$4,000 year for growing seedlings
for these purposes at the state forestry
nursery at Trout Lake This small
sum, experts estimate, will provide
more than a million seedlings a year.
None of these seedlings, however.
can be delivered within three years.
They must remain in seedbeds two
years and in transplant beds at least
another year. All the more reason
for passing the bill without unneces-
sary delay
The legislature has enacted law
which authorizes towns, cities and
villages to create memorial parks by
purchasing and reforesting tracts Of
idle land outside of their corporate
limits. In several communities plans
are already being made to establish
municipal forests under this law. To
some extent requests for seedlings
for this purpose can be met bv the
state forestry nursery, where there
are half million or more seedlings.
but planting stock is needed for state
land, especially the shores of north
ern lakes and rivers, and if the needs
of communities and farmers and 9th
er landowners are to be met, there
must be intensive nursery work on a
larger scale and this cannot be done
without the additional funds provided
in the Burke bill.
A million trees a year, in addition
to whatever planting can be done in
the state forest area, will work wen
ders in identifying Wisconsin, IN re-
newihg the states timber supply, in
attracting tourists mere and more
and in providing places for popular
recreation. All of this, moreover, at
trif1ing expense, nominal expense
to the state
To insure the passage of the bill,
it would be well for men and women
interested in making their commune
tiles more wholesome and attractive
to write to their representatives in
the legislature and urge them to sup
port Senate Bill No. 1888.

OUR STAND
FOR. IDEALS

Can a nation practice the teachings
of Christ without being made to suf-
fer by reason of its unselfshness
Our own country, for instance, sac
rificed about one hundred thousand
men and expended approximately
forty billion dollars to make the world
safe for humanity. 1t asked nothing
IN return save that it should suffer no
actual injury when the final settlement
was made.
In contrast with this, Japan sacri-
feed a total of perhaps three hundred
Ten and spent not more than one
fourth of billion dollars in the great
conflict. But before doing this, she de-
manded guarantees out of all proper
ton to the lives and money expended.
So it has come about that notwith-
standing we sacrificed more than three
hundred times as many men and spent
one hundred sixty times as much mon
ey as Japan We have nothing whatever
to show for our effort whereas Japan
has acquired all the German posses
sions in the Far East, the rich Chinese
province of Shantung, multitude of
islands in the Pacific, and even the
cable station of zap, by which she ac-
tually cuts us off from communication
with our Philippine possessions.
Does it pay for a nation to be so
idealistic as to fail to look out for its
own interests when other nations are
known to be looking out for theirs
Or should we continue to stand for
peace and goodwill among men, know
ing that others are taking advantage
of our kindness of heart and altruism?
The answer to both of these ques-
tons is probably "yes." But it is con
siderably harder to see it when we are
thinking Of actual cases like this one
than when we are mediating upon mere
abstract principles.

"STUDY Time"
FOR women

1t is becoming clear that strong
effort is to be made within the next
two or three years to abolish the di-
rect primary system and go back to
the old convention plan Of nominating
candidates for office.
By the convention plan, the candi-
dates of each party for the various
public Offices were formally chosen by
delegates who had in turn been named
by the voters at the party caucasus.
That is, not the voters themselves, but
1.-THE delegates chosen to represent them,
actually named the party candidates.
The primary plan did away with
both caucuses and conventions for the
most part, and established a special
election, called a primary election, at
which the voters were expected to
choose the party candidates directly.
The reason assigned for making the
change was that the conventions seem
ed so otter to be under the control of
party bosses and tricky politicians. 1t
was believed that the voters themsel-
yes would be less easily Influenced than
their delegates by the crooked gentry
who were trying to control the public
offices of the country for their own
private gain.
Some think the present movement
TO abolish the primaries is due to the
fea1, that politicians generally have
of the women of America, and that
they have decided that their only
chance of controlling political affairs
in the future lies in getting back to the
old convention system.
At any rate, it seems in order for
women voters to be looking into the
merits of the controversy. Both sides
Of il will be presented impartially in
these columns within the next two or

Interesting Chautauqua Facts.

Bishop Vincent originated the Chau-
tauqua idea in 1874 at Chautauqua
Lake, New York. This movement
grew and spread slowly until there
we're several hundred Chautauquas in
1904. In 1903, the first circuit Chau-
tauqua was organized and since then
the growth has been much faster Last
year. 1851 towns conducted circuit
Chautauquas with $1,000 programs
and admissions aggregating 35,449, $50.
This summer will see the number large
Iy increased.

EiIIinr a Real Need

After all is said and done. life does
not rise above our amusements. These
cannot be left to choice, if society is
to be at its best. Poor amusemeGis
cannot make fine citizenship: and
the Chautauqua is filing real need
in America in bringing to tie home
towns the finest character OF enter
tainnent and inspirational lectures.

MEMORIAL DAY 1921.

Today we pause to drop rose
(perchance, a tear)
Upon the earthly bed of those
who slumber here
And rest and wait the coming dawn
A little thing it seems; and yet.
How shall we say
(Who have not learned how to forget
Nor ever may)
The things our full hearts dwell upon?
Our fallen comrades far away
In other lands,
Where peoples nod and grasses sway
And loving hands
No floral tribute may bestow.
All, can you know the pledge we make
This solemn day?
To do our part that none need take
The grievous way
You trod that Truth should live, and
Right.
But, hear US! Should it ever be
Our lot to take
The cross of war again for Liberty,
May we not break
The faith with which you fought the
fight.
