Manager Bploff that even the All
SchCnstics were admitted. It was es-
timnted that 5000 were turned away.
Despite the fact that Thompson was
held to one field goal, he was the high
scorer of the evening. His foul shoot
ing was phenomenal. twenty-five OF his
twenty six chances being converted into
points.
The All -Scholastics we're outscored

Meter High for Locals
Bob Meter was high for the Quaker
City youths. lie Gagged three neat
out of eight fouls. Sheer led in two
pointers with four, Stevenson had II
pair of double dcckers and four of six
fouls and Lungren dropped one field
goal in the basket.
1uhgren was by far the defensive
hero Of the game. lie stuck to Thomp-
son like II plaster and only once-and
that IN the early minutes of the game
did the sensational Passaic forward
break away for goal.
Manager Beloff selected defensive
team for the occasion and 1t worked
well. His plans were upset when il
was announced that GOldblatt and
Stevenson could not make the trip, due
to illness, but at the last minute
Stevenson put in his appearance and
played great game.
There were about fifty Philadelphians
who followed the schoolboys here and
were surprised and pleased with the
reception accorded them The Passaic
cops were kind enough to let some of
them see the game.

The Passaic boys rarely dribble.
Their attack consists of batting long
and short passes with lightning speed
and teamwork planned and carried out
in minute detail.
The offensive also depends on the
center man getting the p-off. and he
does. JcrmalOwitZ, who started the

HENRY FORD is shutting down his
plants. He has let it become known
that there is reason, but not The one
generally back of shutdowns. He Is
not shutting down because he can not
sell his cars, nor because of labor
trouble, nor because of lack of money
to pay his way. He is not even shut
ting down because he can not get coal.
He can get coal; he declares that there
is no lack of coal; the coal brokers have
all kinds, and Ford has been offered
coal, and he has the money to pay for
it; but he mas shut down as protest
against the profteering in coal inau-
gurated by the coal brokers. He prom
Uses that he will stand together with
the public in hindering the brokers
from robbing the people who need coal,
and if the government is a government

the people, it can make these profiteers
turn over the coal for fair price and
send the brokers where they belong.

VOTE FOR
Hon. HENRY ALLEN COOPER
FOR CONGRESS

We are certain that the voters of the
First Congressional district do not need
to be reminded that Henry Allen Coop
er is a candidate for denomination at
the primaries September 9Th next.
In view of the many years of good
service in congress which Mr.. Cooper
has given in representing this district
it is not necessary at this time to state
reasons why he should be nominated.
His record is the reason.
Few men in congress, if any, have
as clean q record as Mr.. Cooper. If he
has any mistakes they have been
honest ones and infinitely small as COM
pared with the vast amount of good he
he has accomplished in supporting
measures of that character.
His opposition to bills originating in
the interests of big business has in the
past saved this country millions of dol
lass and he still is on guard to defeat
measures of that character.
Aside from his salary Mr.. Cooper
has never profted one cent by reason
of the office he holds. He is honest,
has large legislative experience and
can be trusted as can no other man to
care for the interests of this congress
sional district.
Authorized and paid for by the
Cooper Campaisn Committee.

uary of Marcus "Wednesday. We print
it in full as it is of interest to so many
in this community who knew the de-
ceased and to whom the news of his
death carried message Of sorrow:
A sad funeral was that of early We'd
nesday morning when the remains OF
Mr.. Marcus McChesney were laid to
rest in the Lynn Haven cemetery. The
deceased had been i'll but short time,
and was on his farm near Mariana, &
recent purchase, and where with his
nephew he was busily employed wher
illness stopped his labors. Both Mr..
McChesney and his nephew were pros
trated with fever, when their neigh
bors, the Lamb family, with tender
care, assisted in the care of both mer
in the absence of relatives. The elder
man did not rally under the minlstra
tions of friends and physicians, but the
nephew is now out of danger.
The body was brought to Lynn Hav-
en- during the night hours and placed ir
charge of G. A. Sharpe and the funera
services held by Rev. Grant from the
M. E. church Wednesday morning at
o'clock.
Telegraphic communication was hele

Tobacco Notes

Mr.. Otto G. Anderson of Anderson
Brothers, Menominee, Wis, manufac-
turers of cigars and packers of northern
tobacco, was in Edgerton Wednesday
for few hours. He has a fancy pack
ing of 200 cases 1920 and $50 1921
cases binders packed in Barron county.
He states that the hot weather has
| made the 1922 in the field show lack of
good spread.
Official announcement dated at Madi-
son, Aug. 26, 1922, signed by Jens
Davidson, president of the board of
directors of the Northern Wisconsin
Cooperative Tobacco Pool, notifies all
growers who have signed the pool con-
tract that rs per cent of the acreage
grown to tobacco in 1920 has been
signed up, and that the 1922 crops are
held by the terms of the contract.
Mayor A. E. Smith of Viroqua called
the business men of the city together
week ago last Monday to consider
proposition to build, together with the
farmers of the pool, warehouse with
I a 5000 case capacity. The following
resolution was passed.
The business men of Viroqua pledge
their cooperation with the farmers of
Vernon county to finance the erection
of sufficient warehouse and storage
room to properly handle the crop of
Vernon county and adjacent territory.
A committee of seven was named to
cooperate with Selmer Neprud, mem
Der of the board of directors of the
pool, in carrying the measure through.
The committee is l.. M. Thompson, T.
C. Knutson, Douglas Nelson, T. o.
Mork, Ralph Nuzum, ]. A. Moen and
A. E. Smith as chairman. Three mem
bers are growers. The CensorNin re-
porting the matter says:
Edgerton, with population of less
than Viroqua, is the tobacco center of
the state, having more than fifty ware
houses. If the business men of Viro-
qua will Fundamentally cooperate with
the growers of this section there is no
reason why Viroqua cannot become the
second tobacco center of the state in a
few years, and this in turn opens up
other propositions of the most vital in
teresr to this community the securing
of manufacturing concerns right here
at home to work this tobacco up into
the finished product. Let every man
who loves this city and community and
wishes it to prosper put shoulder to
| the wheel and put the warehouse across.
It is reported that similar move is
on foot at Westby.
