Professor G.. y. Dutton spoke at
the vesper services OF the Y. W. c.
A. on Tuesday evening. Professor
Dutton spoke OF religion and how its
has changed through ages. Religion
is the feeling Of awe and reverence
which man feels for a being higher
than himself. In the religion OF the
savage. the feeling was one OF fear.
This feeling was natural because the
things IN nature which he could not
control were things likely to do him
harm. As a result his religion con-
sisted in trying to appease the wrath
of the evil spirit The various
philosophers OF the Greeks in way
served as religion. The followers Of
Plato. the Stories. and the Epicur-
cans all had their beliefs. Many OF
these philosophers are good but
Christianity embraces all their good
points and brings the thought Of love
Of God for man. Miss Madelor
Jones "a was the leader OF this
meeting.

see Stolen
Automobile

An inclosed $4,000 Peerless automo-
bile was stolen at Beaver Dam Thurs
day. The automobile was supposed to
have been heading toward Baraboo
and the local authorities were notified
to be on the lookout for the thieves
with the valuable car.
The auto and it's occupants, however
did not pass through this city it was
later believed. ". T. Marriott of this
city states that yesterday while he
with an auto party were returning
from Beaver Dam large inclosed car
was just ahead Of them all the way
to Portage Before reaching the near
city the occupants of the large car
tagged the Marriott party and asked
the way to Portage.
Mr. Marriott at the time did not
know of the stolen auto but after OBJ
tanning a descriptioneof the car he be-
lieves the auto he sawNwas the miss
ing one. Two young men were at the
wheel of the car near Portage.
There is a reward of $50 offered for
the return of the Peerless, and If the
Baraboo folks had known in time they
might have been $50 richer.

A married woman and a young man
both of this city were discovered in an
embarrassing situation Wednesday
evening in a room occupied by the
latter. w. H. Ode, night patrolman,
with the husband of the woman were
the chief witnesses of the scene. The
officer and husband after making the
discovery left the room and while they
were gone the other two hurriedly col
lected their clothing and left the place
via the rear entryway. Later, however,
the young man decided to return and
face the music.
The husband and wife intended to
be separated if the divorce court
would permit and no doubt the recent
act will add fuel to the fire and be
very helpful in obtaining decision in
favor OF hubby.

DEFEATED 9 TO z
Local Players Make Repeated
Gains on Straight Football and
Forward Passes, Lose Ball

An intercepted forward pass was
all that won the football game for
Baraboo high Saturday in the contest
with New Lisbon high at the local
fair grounds. Wyatt, star full back
for the locals, intercepted the pass
and ran the full length of the field
for touchdown. The local aggrega-
ton made repeated gains both in
straight football and in forward pas
ses but lost the ball. The first part
of the game New Lisbon brought the
ball within one inch of the Baraboo
goal and the local held them in the
position for three downs
A touch back for Baraboo and one
for New Lisbon gave each of the
teams points and with Baraboo's
touchdown and goal the locals had
nine points to their credit. Final score
8 to 2.
Wyatt was ruled out of the game
in the last quarter because of an
alleged attempt to kick a New Lisbon
player. The New Lisbon man walled
and groaned when the foot was tap
ped on his breast and it took nearly
the entire visiting team to revive him.
The injured man greatly exaggerated
his ailments it is claimed,
