PREPARE FOR
A COLD ONE

An extremely cold winter is predict
ed-more severe than any we have
had for many years past, they say.
IF such be the case it would be wise
for our home people to make prepare
tion for it in advance, not only that our
families may live in comfort, but that
live stock and poultry may not suffer.
It would be well to go over the barns
and poultry houses and close up all
cracks and holes where the air could
drift through, with the exception of
the ventilation space, and that should
be covered with canvas. A poultry
house lined with tar paper would be
vastly warmer and the egg yield would
be much more satisfactory.
With depressed business conditions
prevailing generally it would be the
height of folly to allow an extreme
winter to render them worse when a
little forethought and energy will pro-
vide against such a possibility.
Do it before the cold weather comes

NEW BANK
Opening

Very attractive invitations have
been issued for the opening of The
First National Bank, of Wisconsin
Rapids, located on Grand avenue, cor
ned Third avenue, for Thursday, Oc-
tober 6, 1921. The invitation bears
a splendid likeness of it's founder, Mr..
j. D. Witter; Mr.. Geo. w. Mead, re-
firing president of the old First Ma
tional Bank; and Mr.. Isaac p Witter,
the president of the new First Ma
tional Bank, as we'll as the new officers,
W. j. Conway, vice-president; E. B
Redford, vice-president; w. j. Taylor,
cashier; Henry Demitz, assistant cash.
ier; NJ. j. Cypress, assistant cashier
1t also contains pictures of the new
bank building, erected in 1921; Bank
of Grand Rapids building, erected
in 1887; the old First National Bank
building erected in 1907; and the old
First National Bank Building erect
ed in 1872. 1t also contains historical
facts showing the growth from 1872
to the present. It's a splendid showing
of which J. D. Witter and his descend
ants may we'll be proud. The new
building will stand for years as
monument to the thrift and enter
prise of thos who have made it pos
sible.

THE PUBLIC,
THELAkES,
THE RIVERS

A stand in favor of public owner
ship, for park purposes, of strip OF
land at least 800 yards wide along
the shores of lakes and rivers was
taken at meeting of the American
Institute of Park Executives in De
troit.
There is no question that the adop-
tion of a policy like this in the early
years of Wisconsin for example
would have been a great boon to all
the people for all time.
It is not practicable now, however
that is, not practicable for the public
to secure all water frontage. Rail
road tracks, factories and residences
stand in the way, so far as many of
the lakes and streams are concerned
and the cost would be prohibitive.
But what can be done in large cit
les is to secure for public use water
frontage that is still available for the
purpose, with view to parking it
and providing Fairgrounds, bathing
beaches and the like.
Moreover, in the unsettled sections
OF the state, along the wild lakes and
streams of Wisconsin, the public
should acquire frontage and build
roads SO as to insure the use and en-
joyment of these waters by the peo-
pie.
Counties and towns could we'll es-
tablish public parks along the shores
Of some of these lakes and streams.
Not from single lake or river
should the public be barred. These
waters are all public waters and no
private monopoly of any of them
should be permitted.
Men and clubs that acquire all the
land around lake may use and dc
use the power that this gives them
to prevent, by threats of prosecution
for trespass, access to the water, but
III the state, counties, towns, cities
and villages there lies the right of
eminent domain-the power to ac.
Quire any land for public use through
condemnation proceedings.
Local government, in addition, pos
sesses the power to build roads to the
lakes and rivers.
In these methods lies the way to
give the public access to any lake OF
stream. One or the other course
should be followed, according to con-
ditions. In every case the public's
rights should be asserted and enforc-
ed.

COURTESY PAYS

The other day in Dallas, Texas, a
seedy looking individual walked into
a big truck salesroom and started to
examine chassis on the floor.
Two dapper salesmen looked him
over-decided against him and went
on talking about the party of last
night. The seedy looking individual
finally walked out.
Down the street he entered anoth-
er show room and was at once cour-
teously greeted by young salesman.
Thirty minutes later he had bought
five trucks.
"Cash or time? ?" asked the sales
man.
The seedy looking individual pulled
out certified check for 100000.
'Take it out of that" he said, 81

ty more trucks. Can you have them ?"

FULL POCKETS
ANDEMPTY HEADS

When Fatty Arbuckle was "discov-
cred" for the movies he was cleaning
,uspidors in saloon. At the time of
his arrest on charge of numbering
Virginia Rape he was a film star
with more money than he could spend.
But his money went to his head,
md his head landed him in a murder

Whether Arbuckle be guilty or in
locent, the fact of the revolving de-
oauch remains, and the debauch brot
n the death of a woman.
The time may come when a man will
achieve fortune without losing his
. ,rains or his decency, as is too often
the case now.
But until that time does come pub
ic opinion should compel a decent and
iaw abiding line of conduct, even tho
the incliGaUlon is not there.
Full pockets are not to be condemn
ed, but full pockets and empty heads
are menace.
We don't need the combination in
this country.

THE SILVER LINING

Of necessity, life has a great deal
in it which is serious and earnest, so
look for the nnirth and the funny side
of things as you go along. The abil-
ity to extract a little fun from a sit
uation will often save one from irrita-
ton and nerve strain. Even as "a
soft answer turneth away wrath" so
a smile, twinkle in the eye, and a
humorous remark will often make for
better understanding and the hapy
conclusion Of transaction which had
been apparently at a dead stop on
both sides.-American Stationer.
