)EILS OF WISCONSIN
FORM PLAY SETTING

The woods and rocks at the Deils
of the Wisconsin, formerly occupied
by Winnebago Indians, form the set
tign for the first act of Prof. William
Ellery Leonard's play RED Bird
which will be given by the Curtain
GLIB, faculty dramatic club, at the
Parkway theatre. Madison. April 20.
Though the village of Red Bird, an
historical Indian chief, and the Hill
of the dead, which plays a part in the
scene, were some distance apart in
the play, and the two are apart in the
dells for heightened effect and a GER
tain amount of symbolism.
Generations ago, long before the
dells became famous as a tourists
esort, they were known to the trap
pers, and Winnebago lore abounds
with legends about them.
The third act takes place at Devils
lake. Here Professor Leonard uses
one Of the well known Winnebago
legends about this part of the coun-
try. lsss~gz

BARABOO NEEDS
ARE DISCUSSED

The members of the Kiwanis club
devoted the time at their Wednesday
luncheon to a discussion OF Baraboo
needs. Ben Jones outlined the status
of the Baraboo band, told of its i'm
portance in the community and the
good material that was in il and stat
ed that he had played in a number
of bands but that none were as good
as the one in Baraboo. A committee
was appointed to wait on the city
council at its next meeting and ask
for larger appropriation TO help sus-
tain the band
The subject of baseball and a Bar
aboo team was brought up by T. M.
Mould. An effort may be made to
have the business houses close one

mer with the idea of encouraging ball
games on that afternoon. The state
park commissioners will be asked to
allow the ball team to collect a fee
from spectators at the games played
in Devils Lake State park
Herman Anderson and w. E. Bar.
niger spoke on the question of a
parking place for tourists and their
care while in Baraboo, and told of

from an increase of tourist travel in
this community. A parking site and
other accommodations are already be-
ing arranged for by the park com
missionels. Pockets. describing
places of interest about Baraboo may
be printed and circulated.
The question of bringing a chau-
tauqua to this city during June was
discussed by Supt. A. c. Kingsford

definite action was taken

BARABO0 TO HAVE
RADIO STATION

r. w. Jeffries expects to install a
fine radio receiving station in the
near future. He has already erected
the antenna wires on the roof of the
Bank of Baraboo building but as yet
has been unable to get the rest Of his
equipment. On account of the present
importance and popularity of the ra-
dio, the demands for wireless ma
chimes is greater than the supply and
it is exceedingly difficult of purchase
them. However, he has. had his vr6er
in for some time and hopes to obtain
the machine before long.
The receiving station will be in
stalled in the recently vacated Dono-
van building and will be for the in
formation and entertainment of the
general public. Each day the weather
reports, and the Chicago and Milwau-
kee market reports will be received
as we'll as broadcasted concerts and
speeches. Mr.. Jeffries will have a 25.
600 meter station, the largest around
here, and large enough to pick up
some foreign messages, he hopes. A
number of Baraboo people have made
trips to Ableman for the purpose of
listening-in on the station which has
been installed in pool-hall there and
found the experience most interest
ing and entertaining. That at Able
man is a 5000 meter station there
fore much smaller inan the one which
Mr.. Jeffries is to have.
The Baraboo station will have ear
phones and loud speaker, which
makes it possible for a large number
of persons to listen to a concert or
speech at the same time, and the in
novation will be quite complete in
every way. 1t viii give Baraboo resi-
dents an opportunity which may
have been hoping 20 have.

IS
AN EVOLUTION

Democracy in government has
been a growth, an evolution, and so
presented before the members of the
Fortnightly Literary club by Attor-
ney Clifford Nj. La Mar on Thursday
evening at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
H. E. Cole. The speaker quoted
largely from Modern Democracies,"
by Viscount James Bryce.
A democracy is a government in
which the supreme power is exer-
cised by the people; a republic be-
ing more representative. In the be-
ginning there were leaders who
gained their position through some
supreme effort or heredity and later
for mutual defense a democracy was
formed, Athens being an ancient ex-
ample. In Athens there was no con-
stitution, the male citizens was the
legislature, and the people were of
ten misled by great orators. The
speaker described the mode of pun
ishment, how military and civil off,
GERS gained their positions and other
ment. This democracy, as near ideal
as one finds in history, came to end
about 232 B. G.
Switzerland
Mr.. La Mar described the govern
ment of Switzerland and said that
politics was ut shadow there be-
cause there were no mfllionaires, no
color question, no foreign policies, no
sporting blood-nothing to excite
parties. There is no desire to win
because the salaries are low. Swift
zerland is as near an ideal democracy
as exists in modern times.
France and the United States were
discussed and among the criticisms
that Viscount Bryce makes of the
government of this country are the
following:
1. The state legislatures do not en-
joy the confidence of the people.
2. The civil service is not yet equal
to its task
3. State judiciary is largely inferior
to the bar.
4. Criminal justice slow.
3. Laws imperfectly enforced.
6. Government of cities bad.
z. Party organizations selfish.
s. Tone of public service not what
ii should be.
Q. Power of wealth in legislation
formidable.
10. Not enough brilliant men in
public life.
Superintendent A. G.. Kingsford
, showed how the government of Wash
ington was much more simple than
that of today because there were no
great cities, wealth. foreign popu!a-
tion,-largely one kind Of people.
He spoke of the danger of too much
legislation against capital and of 9TH
er elements, yet believed we are bet
ter off than other peoples.
Herman Bogard, HI. J. Sleeps, Ralf
T. Runge. M. c. Crandall and others
Joined IN the discussion.
Mr.. Runge announced tie Twen-
tieth Century club had arranged for
a free illustrated lecture on disar-
mament at the high school building
next Wednesday evening.
The next meeting of the club will
be with Rev. and Mrs. r. M. Lauren,
son.
