 ON SOLDIER BONUS
Plan to Offer Resolution for Committee to Proceed at Once On Draft of
 Measure
RxAssociated Press


 Washington, January 23.-Call for lican members of the House on the soldier bonus question was issued to- day. Immediate action on an ad- justed compensation bill has been de- manded hy a group of members who were in military service during the war.
 At the Thursday night conference they plan to offer a resolution, ln- structing the ways and means com mittee to proceed at once to the drafting of a bonus measure. The resolution also will provide that when reported to the House the meas ure Is to be the continuing business until passed.
 House leaders said no effort would be made at the caucus to instruct the ways and means committee as to how it should provide for the raising of necessary revenue. That question will be determined, 1t was said, by the committee, with the prob ability that the republican member ship later at a. caucus will take a stand on the plan proposed.
 Data upon possible new methods of taxation With whfch 10 raise Iunas for bonus has been prepared by the treasury department, it was said to- day, for the information of Con- gress.
 Officials of the treasury said, how ever, that the department would await requests for such information before transmitting to Congress. At the same time 1t was said that the treasury's position with regard to the advisability of a bonus for veterans of the world war was unchanged, the enactment of compensation legisla- ton under existing conditions be- ing viewed with disfavor.
 In the event 8 bonus bill Is en- acted, treasury officials said, some tax would have to be provided to take care of it.
 Uses of the allied debt as baeis for bonus financing was said to be rnoordad aa iupracticai.

SEVENTEEN Anniversary of the Potter
Family New Years Gathering at
Albion.

On New Years Day 1922, the
Potter family annual New Years
gathering was held at the old fam
ily home in Albion, built by Deacon
Joseph A. Potter seventy years ago.
This home built in the beautiful
burr-oak openings, gay with wild
flowers and berries, and enlivened
by the songs of many birds, was ded-
icated to the use of the whole fam
lily on New Years day 1852 by Dea-
con Joseph A. Potter and his wife
Rachel West Potter inviting their
married children, five In number,
with their families, who had proceed
ed them to this Wisconsin settlement,
to spend the day with them and to
partake of a family dinner. This
custom beginning seventy years ago,
was kept up at the family home as
long ais the parents lived and by
their request was not discontinued
after their death. The necessary
change being a community dinner
and the heads of each household TAX
ing turns as host and hostess. AT
that first dinner seventy years ago,
there must have been eighteen mem
bers of the family present. In the
sixties the family membership in
creased so that their were often be-
tween sixty and seventy members
present. New Years Day 1922 finds
the old home, which is one of the few
pioneer homes, which has always re-
manned in the family, owned and oc-
cupied by Mr.. M. J. Babcock and his
wife Edith Potter Babcock, grand
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph A.
Potter. Meeting with Mr.. and Mrs.
Babcock in the old home on this sew
entieth anniversary were thirty-six
relatives and the meeting was graced
as it has been for many years, by
the presence of the pastor of the 5.
d. B. Church and his family.
! Mrs. G. r. Head, of Madison is
the only living member of the origi-
nal family and she now celebrates
the day with her children, grand-chil-
dren and great-grand-children at
their home in Madison. Defendants
of other members of the family are
scattered from the Atlantic to the
Pacific, and while they cannot join
their Wisconsin relatives in these
annual gatherings they often express
pleasure that the old custom is being
kept up and one or more of these
distant cousins occasionally finds it
possible to join the family group in
the old fashioned big dinner and

Mrs. Charles BabcOck.

Clarissa Jane, daughter of Thomas
N. and Fannie J. Wilcox, was born
at Angelo, Monroe Co., Wis, Feb.
20, 1856 and died at her home in
Albion, Wis. Jan. LIST, 1922.
Her girlhood was spent in Angelo
and here on Nov. II, 1873 she was
married to Charles |. Babcock of
Albion, Wis. The young couple made
their home on farm two miles
north Of Albion center and there they
lived for forty-five years. To them
four children were born: Grace who
died in 1915, Lillian who is Mrs. W.
E. Babcock of Waupun, Henry of
Milton and Fred of Wauwatosa.
In Nov. 1918 Mr.. and Mrs. Bah
cock left the farm and moved to Al
bion center where they lived until
she became the victim Of pneumonia.
Besides her husband and three
children she has left behind two
brothers, William and Wellington.
"Clara," as she was lovingly call
ed by her many friends was for the
greater part of her life denied that
greatest of all blessings, good health
When quite young she became at
ficted with asthma, from which she
suffered throughout her life. Ill
health from this and other diseases
did not however prevent her from
leading a useful life. She was a good
wife and kind and loving mother.
Always bright and hopeful even I'M
der the most trying circumstances
she was a constant inspiration to
those about her and her courage and
good cheer will long be remembered
by many. She loved the birds and
the flowers and during the later
pleasant hours gazing across the
beautiful Academy campus in front
of her home. Her greatest pleasure,
however was derived from reading.
Obliged to remain at home because
of i'll health and supplied with books
and magazines by her friends and
relatives, she enjoyed herself in a
quiet way. She was a woman with a
beautiful Christian faith. Early in
life she became member of the
Albion, Seventh-day Baptist Church,
and to its covenant she remained
faithful to the end.
On New Years day surrounded
by those she loved best this strong
loving soul, her work on earth ended
passed quietly away into the great
beyond where there is no more pain
and suffering but where the weary
are at rest.
Funeral services were held at the
home Jan. 4th in charge of pastor
Sayre. Interment was in the Ever
green Cemetery.
