PRESENTS FLAG TO CHURCH.

At the services in the Congregational
church last Sunday evening, John C.
Martin presented large silk flag to
that organization and also delivered
very able and stirring address on "Au-
tocracy versus Democracy, in which
he informed his hearers that "old
glory" is now the oldest flag in the
world reaching one hundred and forty
five years last June. Another notable
feature was the soul enriching singing
of the choir
The flag is a costly one and the church
greatly appreciates this appropriate
and lasting gift from Mr. Martin. Ten
G. A. X. members occupied seats of
honor at this service and the pastor,
Rev. A. II. Schoenfeld, in well chosen
sentences Of gratitude, 4c pied the
beautiful emblem on behalf of the
board of trustees for the church.

SIGNS

Ed. Tribune Do you believe in signs
Nearly every town in Iowa county,
and many in Wisconsin, has sign
board near city limits on every princi-
pal road entering the city. giving name
name of town. population, and some of
them a catchy slogan. Davenport, Ia,
signs read
Davenport, Iowa, Where the West
Begins The place where we Plan, Work
and Play together"
Mineral Point is too good little city
to have people passing through and not
even know what town they're in. The
slogan we are using in our Holster
advertising could be used, unless bet
ter one is round Come in. you may
! like us. j. Roy GORDON.

Success.

One hundred and twenty seven young
people from Lancaster, Dodgeville and
this city gathered in the lecture room
of the Congregational church last FRI
day night for the second annual Chris
tan Endeavor district rally.
The program commenced at $50 with
more than bountiful supper served by
the local society This was followed by
interesting and entertaining speaking,
singing and music, each society repre-
sented contributing ite full quota. It
was an evening of young life looking
through eyes of laughter at the serious,
sober tasks on ahead and making sure
preparation to cope with them in days
| to come.
Mineral Point almost blushet n the
many concentrations given them by
the visitors for the systematic and
genial manner of conducting the rally

MINERAL POINT DEFEATS
DODGEVILLE IL to 6.

Our city was turned over to the high
school Tuesday afternoon, when the
much talked of foot ball struggle be.
tween our high school and that of
Dodgevilie took place. Most of the
business houses were closed during the
game and one of the largest crowds
that ever attended game in our city
was the result. Dodgeville sent large
delegation to support their team.
A commendable show of school
spirit was displayed by our high school
when they formed in procession at the
school and marched through the BUSH
ness section and to the grounds with
about hundred and fifty in line. Spir-
tied school yells and songs were given
throughout the march and game, with
the assistance of piano mounted on a
truck. Between halves a goodly por-
tion of the student body performed a
snake dance on the gridiron.
The game was stubbornly contested
lioiu START W lHlStl anu was iShAuitb
by clean playing and no wrangling
Mineral Point had the advantage over
the visitors in the line, making steady
gains thereby, particularly fullback
White, and the ball was in Dodgeville's
territory most of the time. Two touch
downs were made by our boys and they
came very close to third one when
Dodgevile held them for downs on the
one yard line. One of the visitors
caught a forward pass and carried the
bali over for a touchdown. Neither
side completed the touchdowns, making
the score IL to 6. Cole caught for.
ward pass. and, by clever lodging, ran
for a touchdown, but one of our boys ,
was offside and the score was not al
lowed. Egg. VIM paved the way for
the second touchdown by catching a
kick and carrying the ball nearly to the
goal line.
Our boys all played very good game
and should ha We won by two touchdowns
and they probably would if they had
attempted fewer forward passes after
they apparently had the game won II

"A Little Child Shall Lead Them.

The above age old declaration came
home to our city in sad but forcefu
way last Friday morning when it be-
came known that Robert, the nearly
six-yesr-old son of Mr.. and Mrs A. A,
Vieth, had quietly slipped into the arms
of Jesus on Thursday night. after a
little over weeks battling with scar
let fever.
Robert was born at North Fond du
Lac Nov. Is. 1916. He was a bright,
sturdy, happy little fellow, loved at
home and liked by all who knew him.
The remains were taken to Prairie du
Sac early Friday morning. Later in
the day funeral services were held at
the grave there, Rev. Albright of the
Presbyterian church officiating Be
sides the parents, Robert will also be
greatly missed by one sister, Dorothy,
and a little brother, Charles.
The heart of the entire community
goes forth in deepest compassion to
MIR. and Mrs. Veith in this their sor-
row-ridden hour.
CARD OF THANKS.
In this time of sorrow and bereave-
ment words fail to adequately express
our heartfelt appreciation for the many
worlds of sympathy extended to us, for
the kind deeds performed for us, and
for the acts of mercy done in our be-
half by our friends, neighbors and
teachers. To our co-workers in the
public schools are we especially in
debted for helping to tighten our bur-
den.
To all do we extend our thanks in
full measure.

feel it.
Mr.. and Mrs. John H. Fuller and

R. C. Middleton and R. L. Smith
are heavily interested in Irish potato
culture at Shell Bluff, and spent a
day or two on their plantations this
week. The potato orchards in the
potato belt are looking fine and the
promise is for a big yield, though
much can happen the tubers before
they are ready to market. Potatoes
bid fair to bring a big price this sea-
son and the man who has 'em in
quantities will soon have real money
to cremate.
