In the passing of DR.. Cook
this community has sustained no
little loss. An honorable, up.
right man, fair and considerate
in his dealings with his fellow
man and a straight forward,
exemplary citizen. AS a public
official on e.old st. Johns city
council he made an admirable
representative. Possessed in a
large degree of good common
sense and level headedness, and
having the courage Of his convic-
tions, coupled with high re
gard for the duties of his office,
he ever commanded the respect
of his fellow officials, and he
served the community faithfully,
honorably and we'll in his official
capacity. As a private citizen
and q husband and father his
life was all that could be de-
sired, and his kindly, philo.
sophical nature and cheering
presence will be remembered
long after he has passed to his
reward in the better world be-
yond. Such men as DR.. Cook
tend to make the world better
and purer. and the community
In which they reside are i'm.
measurably benefited by their
having lived In it. But his race
Is run. his course Is ended, and
his spirit has winged it's flight
TO participate in and enjoy the
delight and happiness in the
broader and brighter world be-
yond.

private pocketbooks OF owners of
baseball teams may be lined again.
Persons acquainted with the opera
tion of the press would never accuse
newspapers of being elemOsynary in
siftutions; yet every year the great
newspapers give free millions of dol
lars worth Of advertising space to
professional baseball, while the am
ateur games, in which boys and men
play on the sand-lots after school and
tention at all.
Professional baseball is a cold, hard
work, receives a scant line or no at
business, in which the players are
workingmen, compelled to labor daily
at a routine employment, bound by
fast rules, enforced by hard task
masters, and hired by men who cast
aside aged young men with a ruthless
ness no other private employer would
dare to exercise.
School and sand-lot baseball, on
the other hand, has the right to be
lnown as Americas national game
II is inspired by youths natural am

velopment in America. But here, too
they have been capitalized in the

EDUCATION COUNTS HEREDITY
COUNTS FOR MORE

The National Catholic Welfare
Council says that with an elementary
education your chance of success is
l in 1850. With a high school educa-
tion it is l in 1908 With a college
education it is l in 173.
1t all depends on what you call
success and how you calculate it,
The man that goes to college usually
has father or mother able to send
him there. The same 'ather or moth
er is able to start him in business,
and there may be more or less of his
success in the ancestral pocketbook
than in the mind of the young man.
However, whatever the facts, and
whatever the statistics, don't over
look the magic word Incredibly"
This writer knows young man
that went through college and has
since succeeded. While he was in col
lege his mother earned the money to
support him by writing for Appletons
Encyclopedia. The success that the
young man achieved may have been
due two or three per cent to the col
lege education. Ninety-seven per cent
was due to his mothers BRAIN which
he inherited
If man has it in him and if he
can read and write. and especially if
he will read, instead Of gossiping, he
need not fear the competition of any
college man. Lloyd George didn't go
to college. Benjamin Franklin didn't
go TO college. Thomas Edison didn't

1000, people 'gasped at his dar-
ing while approaching his imag-
ination. In one astounding chap

known his choice from a very long
24-hour music program. He indi-.
Gates an organ piece; his hostess
made me sit down comfortably, and,
crossing the room, so far as | could
see, merely touched one or two
screws, and at once the room was
filled with the music of a grand or
gan anthem"
Such an incredible prophecy that
the Bellamy work was classified in
the Libraries as fiction" and so
speedily has scientific development
occurred that in many libraries it still
is fiction" Yet this is only 1922.

Man Made Volcano

The most spectacular sight of the
oil industry of California was the burn
ing of an oil well at Sante Fe
Springs, recently. The well came in
with a roar on Monday, throwing
great quantities of oil, mud, sand and
rocks into the air to a great height.
Although every precauton was taken
to prevent fire, the gas became ignit-
ed by friction and the great mass of
flames shot into the air.
Dynamite was successfully used in
extinguishing the flames, but for a
few hours only, when they again
broke forth in even greater volume
than before.
All efforts to put the fire out prov
ed upavailing and the fire burned
steady until Saturday afternoon
when it ceased, having burned itself
out. The yeritable volcano lasted six
days, leaving in its wake a crater
over a hundred feet across.
At times the fire shot approximately
six hundred feet into the air and
could be seen over a hundred miles.
Thousands of people thronged TO the
place, especially at night, when a
newspaper could be read by the light
of the fire at a distance of three
miles.
Moving pictures machines were
busy. The well, which was owned
by the Union Oil company, was a total
loss, millions of cubic feet of gas
having been destroyed.

HUMANE WEEK IN 1922

Be Kind to Animals Week, April
"a to 20, and Humane Sunday, April
80. will be observed in Baraboo this
year. In the schools the pupils have
written essays and created posters
on which prizes will be awarded
Programs will also be given.
In the United States there aye
six hundred anti-cruelty societies
and these back the movement for
more consideration for children and
dumb animals. The efforts OF the
societies do not embrace the rails
ing of funds but for the reduction OF
cruelty. Ministers preach sermons
on Humane Sunday and during the
week publications lend their influence
in this direction.
These humane days in Baraboo
are made of special interest because
of the prize feature, made possible
by the benefaction of the late Mrs.
Julia A. Getchell.

In a previous issue of this paper
it was stated that w. w. Gilman,
Madison, desired information about
the early appearance of snakes in
order to prepare an article for the
Wisconsin Conservationalist. j. H
Dudley, Indian farm, Caledonia,
makes the first report. He writes
that on April Z, 1922, he met a grass
or garter snake about o'clock in the
morning on knoll facing the south.
The wood was cut in the winter close
to the marsh and brook where the
snake was seen. There was not
much shelter from the wind but there
were plenty of springs, stumps, rocks
and brush near by. The weather was
clear and the temperature was warm.
The location is south Of Durward's
Glen, in the town of Caledonia, not
far from the Sank Columbia county
line.
Miss Ada Pierce, who resides at
Cassel Prairie, several miles west Of
Sank City, is the second to report
The snake she saw was of the grass
species, observed at o'clock on the
afternoon on April Is, when the sun
was shining and. the temperature
about 20 degrees. The reptile was in
the cow yard, on the straw, on the
sunny side of straw stack The
place is near the Wisconsin river
which was nigh, water in the yard
except where there was deep straw
Miss Pierce writes her father usually
plows up several every spring.

Chief of Police Otto Harmed, few
days ago authorized the publishing
of a warning to automobile drivers on
account of a number of them violating
the rules by cutting corners instead
of driving around the silent police

the practice were stopped arrests
would follow. Concerning the above
o. d. Brandenburg of Madison writes:
The notice is excellent, but the
open muffIer in Baraboo, my
old home, is very great nuisance
which needs stern abatement.
1t is tolerated in no other city
that | know of, and ! respectful
ly suggest that the officers ego
after it" too. 1t is a small town
abuse that decidedly should be
taboo in Baraboo. An advertise
ment in your papers, followed by
an arrest or two, will at once
stop the reconsideration, and the
lawlessness.
Editors Note: Chief Harmed says
that the open throttle is as great an
offense as cutting corners and that
drivers who violate the ordinaS &c
are liable to arrest.
