A CHANGE OF POLICY

The Palace Store, Ike Berman,
proprietor, has double page spread
in this issue of the Times calling at
tenton to a sales event which he in
bends to conduct at his store at
which half of the present stock must
be reduced. The headlines of the
announcement are not glaring, Mr..
Berman, preferring to let the prices
tell the story of what he intends to
do.
The Palace store is going to in
augurate new policy and change the
lines handled and this requires the
reduction of at least half of the pre-
sent stock in the shortest possible
time.
The news of Mr.. Berman's selling
event will be carried to all corners
of Bayfield, county through the adver-
tising medium of the Times, while
sales bills will be distributed in Ash
land and Bayfield, counties.
The advertisement announces some
exceptional bargains in merchandise,
which the proprietor says cannot be
duplicated anywhere. No doubt the
event will be success.

SNOW STORM
HITS THE NORTH
Nearly Four Inches of Snow
Fell Tuesday Night With
Freezing Weather Again.

North Wisconsin's annual April
May snow storm arrived on Tuesday
evening of this week when the
weathed turned colder and snow began
falling at about twelve o'clock and
by morning nearly five inches OF
snow was on the grounnd. Those
who went to bed early Tuesday even
ing when balmy breezes were blow
ing arose the following morning, be-
lieving that during the night they
had been transferred to some north
ern CLINE for the ground was covered
with a mantel of white and chilly
breezes crept through the open win
dows.
This is not unusual in Northern
Wisconsin for May snow storms have
been know, but there is no damage
done, for grains and grasses are not
damaged in the least for the snow
acts as blanket to protect the
crops from the freezing weather and
instead of damage the snow proves
benefit to winter wheat and the
grasses.
Really old Nature is extremely
good to us just the same. While
other sections of the country are ex-
periencing cyclones and windstorms
which cause untold damage and suf-
fering the worst this part of the
state gets is a gentle fall Of snow
which melts rapidly within a day
doing no damage whatever.

TO INACCURATE
A SALES DAY
MERCHANTS OF VASHBURN
PLAN MONTHLY EVENT
At Which All Stores Of the City
Will Advertise Certified Bar
gains on the Same Day.

| At a special meeting of the Wash
burn Credit and Commercial Associa-
ton held on Monday evening of this
week it was decided to inaugurate a
Community Sales Day "a Washburn,
and every merchant and firm in the
city is to be encouraged to go into
the proposition in order to make it a
big success.
The first Community Sales Day
will be given during the latter part
of May and will be followed up with
monthly events.
These Community Sales Days have
been carried out with great success
in many of the communities through
out the Northwest and the Washburn
event will be patterned after these.
The object of the Sales Day is to
stimulate business and bring people
from the surrounding country into
Washbum to trade. On that day
every merchant who joins in the plan
will advertise certain article which
will be passed upon by committee
of the Association as being real
bargain. No two stores in the city
will have on sale the same item, so
that people coming into the city to
trade during that day will have an
assortment of bargains from which
to choose.
When a merchant advertises an
item for Sales Day it must be a real
bargain, otherwise the advertisement
will be rejected by the committee.
1t is expected that the first Com
munity Sales Day will be a great
success, and it is the plan to enlarge
upon the event to perhaps include
marketing day for farmers on the
same day.
The Times will carry the publiiity
for this series of events and will
give the news of the sepe to the
public.

FIRE DESTROYS HOUSE
NEAR BARKSDALE

A fire of unknown origin broke out
about eight o'clock Sunday evening
In the house occupied by Herman
Kluge, on a farm near the Du Pont
plant at Barksdale, and resulted in
the total destruction of the building
As the facilities for fighting fire are
poor, it gained too great headway
before it could be extinguished.
The house is owned by the Du
Pont company. The amount of the
aoss has not. yet been estimated. The
fire could be seen plainly from here

NO WASHOUT SAYS FRIBERG

Last weel, some person came into
the Times office and stated that the
road crossing the Sioux River Flats
on Route 13 had been washed out in
several places due to the spring
floods, and that the road was tenn
porarily blocked until the washouts
could be filled by the County Road
crew.
Mr.. Friberg informs us this week
that the person was in error in the
statement, and that no washouts oc-
Cured on this portion of the road
this spring. Instead there was a
slide of the hill this side of the Flat
and the Road Patrolman soon had
this cleared away. The culverts
along the Flats were able to take
care of the water this spring in a
satisfactory manner and according to
the Highway Commissioner ought tc
be sufficient to care for any water
which may come through the Slough

Warm Weather and Rains of
The Past Week Have it Bad

Will Garry it Out.

With the first wind from the west
or southwest the ice in Chequamegon
bay will go out and navigation will
open. For the past few days the
ice in the bay has been shifting about
and at times half of the bay has
been clear of ice, but the wind has
been in the wrong direction to carry
it completely out into Lake Superior
The warm winds and rains of the
past week have the ice badly honey
combed and it is piled up along the
shores.
While some had an idea that ice
was unusually late in going out this
year, yet this seems to be the wrong
impression, as the following dates

 Many believe that general acceptance will come after the good 1t brings Is recognized, Many believe it Will never come; that the good or II does not outweigh the evil The life or death of prohibition rests upon the answer of the question who are right
 IL must be remembered that this suggestion from Secretary Hughes would not have been made except for an opinion" Of one man. That opinion is not law although as far as its holding that liquor could not be legally carried on the vessels Of the United States is undoubtedly correct and timely The treaty suggested by Secretary Hughes would have been binding one whether or not the opinion of Attorney General Daugh- erty as to the carrying of liquor by foreign vessels in our territorial waters is held sound or not, The point, however, is that If such latter holding is not sound law the sugges tion would not have been made.

GERMANY AND WAR,

The recent war cloud. raised be. cause of the Near East situation which came up so suddenly, brings up again the subject of war and the realization that it is not always of gradual development. The great est confagrations sometimes start with a sudden, though small, explo- sion.
 All of which reminds of Germany and the thing that has been noted frequently in these columns. There is no place in the world today for an alarmist. But there is a big place for the person who keeps constant watch of the trend of events and who makes a mental note of such re- marks, made after investigation, as that spoken by former director of research in the ministry of munitions in England. He declares that Ger many today is in far better position

CHUDREN'S THRIFT.

One of the greatest handicaps chil- dren and even young men and womer born of wealthy parents have to meet later in life is their failure to know the value of dollar Inculcating the
 habit of saving in children is wise
 for obvious reasons. It is good to learn, therefore, that the school chil-
 dren of New Britain rank second among some fifty cities in the per centage of savers using the plan re- gently adopted in the schools. Out ot 11,4os children registered in the schools in the city there are 10,6S2 who have taken advantage of the saving plan. They, at least will know something of the value of money when the time comes when they have to earn it for themselves.
 Another obvious lesson learned from saving is to take care of small matters. Take care of the pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves" is but another way Of saying that if one needs the details of life there will be no trouble in solving the larger problems.
 But, valuable as the habits Of thrift are. their importance should not be emphasized above the other qualities of character that go to make up good citizen. Accentuating the value of money, as such. Is dangerous if not accompanied by instruction as to the reason for the value of money A community noted for its saving propensties is apt to be noted also for it's dsinclination to progress where progress involves the risking of money. Gambling is not to be advised, but investment in things that will make for broader life or com munity or individual is to be com mended,

to wage another war than is Great Britain; that England is dismantling her ammunition plants while Ger many is increasing her production of ammunition. Tt may be justfiable," :" he says, for the allies to allow our late enemies to put themselves in so war, but 1t may also be that those whose function 1t Is to see that some, peace treaty are carried into effect are not aware of what is happening, :"
 It sounds rather ridiculous to sug- gest that Germany would declare war today, and probably such a suggestion might be the child of too-tearful imagination, It is not ridiculous, however, to suggest that Germanys strength might possibly be developed with the result that her wishes might become factor in the troubled European situation which would tend to give her advice an importance that would initiate against wise solution of Europes troubles. From being a nation not to be seriously considered in bringing quiet to Europe she might well become a nation whose interests 1t might seem expedient to consider
 lest her enmity might be aroused.
