Penn gained almost at will against
the Middies. The Nittany Lions
will endeavOr to d. the same today.
Last year Penn State defeated
Navy, 13 to I, largely through the
individual efforts of Killinger and
Lightner behind a beefy set Of for
wards. There is not quite so much
heft in the line this year and both
killinger and Lightner have left
college.
Nevertheless, Bezdek's forwards
are not exactly puny. Logue. at
left tackle, weighs $50 pounds and
Jay Mcmahon, at right tackle. tips
the scales at 212 pounds. Logue is
an inch above the six-foot mark,
but Mcmahon stands six feet seven

Many good things have been told
OF Harry Wilson's ability behind the
Penn State line this year. Coach
Bezdek has sought to have Wilson
do the work so capably handled by
Glenn Killinger last fall and he has
been fairly successful. Wilson has
scored more points this year than
any other Eastern player.
Mike Palm, quarterback, was q
halfback last year and is said to be
an excellent runner with ball
He Is also clever at hurling forward
passes. II Is no secret that Hufford

from $6.7D in 1914 to $49.41 In 1920. So
fr Is time for the representatives OF the
People to look at this matter In serious
and sober way We hear talk of the
public debt having been decreased
$4,000. 100000 In the last two years, but
a great deal of that was accomplished
BY the sale of Government property used
during the war. We are not getting

porous country where he could receive
employment and where prosperity would
be continuous rather than to have his
government burden itself with more
taxation and thus close down profitable
enterprises

measure In dollars or attempt to

II do not pretend to go quite so far
In that direction as some people. frankly
confess that my country Is dearer to me
than my State and my State Is dearer
to me than the human unit; but what
ever man may measure his native
land to be, the man who is not willing to
die for that native land according to his

The most impressive speeches made
over the bonus bill in the Senate to-
day were contributed by Senators Will

Twenty-Five Senators participated in
the debate.
Most of the time devoted by the
Senate to the bonus was consumed in
debate over the so-called McNary
rider, which bears little relation to the
principal purpose of the bonus scheme.
In presenting his reasons for oppos-
ing the bonus. John Sharp Williams of
Mississippi said
mr. President, I want to enter my
protest against the latest utterance upon
the floor, an utterance to the effect that
the two or three years spent by our boys
who obeyed the call OF their country to
go to France or to Flanders or to go
to camps here prepared to go to either
place, were years sacrificed, and which
put them at an economic disadvantage
with other people.
Years That Were Sanctified.
"They were not years of sacrifice at
all. They were years glorified, and more
than that, they were years sanctified.
There is no compensation except that
which God himself can give in eternity
that measures up to the sancufication
of that peculiar calling.
'Mr. President, when young boy
with warm blood in his veins answers
the call of his country, whether as
volunteer or as the subject OF the draft,
and goes out to fight for civilization
against military autocracy, / scorn the
| suggestion that he has sacrificed the
number Of days, months or years tnat
he has devoted to that purpose.
II wish that to weigh In, that the
heart and the mind may catch ~. That
II has placed him at ar economic dis-
advantage with his fellow citizens al
history proves Il is not true.
AFTER the civil war the solder VINO
wore the blue and did his duty as ne
understood was not placed at an eco
nomic disadvantage with regard to his
fellows unless he was wounded or dis
abled and when wounded or disabled he
was taken care of as we are now, better
than any nation on the globe. taking
care OF those who we're wounded or dis
abled and of the widows and the de-
pendents of those who died upon the
field of honor.
CIoudfnS the Issue.
THAT is not the question although
very frequently gentlemen find II 70
their. interest to confuse 1t with the
question.
The man who would hesitate for one
moment about making the disabled man
or the man who had become diseased
IN consequence of service or the widow
or the dependent of the dead man de-
pendent upon public charity because he
made himself by his love of country
economically disqualified. would not be

Farmers Will
Meet i'm Racine
to Gather at Racine and Discuss
Federal Farm Loans.

Next Saturday afternoon, February
18th, at 2 o'clock, an important meet
ing of farmers from Kenosha and Ra-
cine counties will be held in the offices
of the wisconsin Agriculturist, 744
Wisconsin street, in Racine. It's pur-
pose is to discuss and probably organ
ize federal farm loan association.
Many farmers in the two counties are
DESTROYS of perfecting such an organ
ization. Charles H. Everett, editor of
the Wisconsin Agriculturst," is and
has been back of the movement for
some time. He is in receipt of many
letters from farmers who desire more
information in reference to the work
ing of the law and of making applica-
ton for loan under the law by be-
coming members of the proposed joint
county association.
The statement is made that it should
be remembered that money can be bor-
rowed under this law equal to 500 of
the appraised value of the farm and
20% of the value of the buildings. No
one can borrow except a farmer who
owns his farm. A first mortgage is
taken as security. Loans may be made
to pay up existing mortgages, to buy
more land, to buy livestock, build
buildings, do drainage work and for
any legitimate agricultural purpose.
Loans run for SO years, borrower
paying the interest and small por-
ton of the principal annually, so that
at the end Of SO years the entire debt
is wiped out. He can at any time after
five years pay up the entire debt if he
chooses. There is no renewing of
mortgages nor anything further to be
done except to pay the interest and a
small portion of the principal twice q
year.
The local loan association must be
comprised of ten members or more.
The members elect their own officers,
board of directors and the person who
is to off1ciate as secretary treasurer.
The farms are appraised by the
board of appraisers of the association
and also by an officer of the Federal
Land Bank and when qualified for a
loan the money is Forthcoming in a
short time.

Sweeney is all right" said DR..
Becker soothingly, as he in turn was
piled with queries by the patient. "He
is in another room and he isn't suffer-
ing as much as you are"
Family to Tragic Scene.
Meanwhile the members of the two
families had been summoned, and Mrs.
Sweeney and Mrs. Stahl, accompanied
by other members of their two fami-
lies, hurried out to Silverlake.
Mrs. Sweeney had been at birthday
party at the home of friend during
the afternoon, and she was at dinner
when the call came bringing word of
the fatal injury of her husband, but
not until she arrived at Silverlake were
her worst fears realized. On the 9TH
err hand, the first word that the Stahl
family received was that Mr.. Stahl had
been killed, and they rejoiced on their
arrival to find him still among the liv-
ing, while they grieved with the wi
cow of his friend.
Mr.. Sweeney was widely known in
the real estate and insurance business
in Kenosha. He had been connected
with the Stahl company for the past
five years, and was known as very
successful realtor. He was member
of number of clubs here and in Wau-
kegan, which was his former home.
He was born August %, 1878, the son
of Mr. and Mrs. John M. Sweeney Of
Waukegan, and for the larger part of
his life made his home there. He is
survived by his wife and two sons,
Joseph Jr. and Jack.
Funeral services will be held Thurs
day afternoon at p. m. at Hansen's
chapel, with interment following in the
Oakland cemetery at Waukegan.
Few men are more widely known in
Kenosha county than Mr.. Stahl. He
served for three terms as sheriff of
Kenosha county and at the last gen
eral election he was the Democratic
candidate for member of Congress in
the First Wisconsin district.
A son of Matt Stahl, one of the pio-
neers of the county and man who
was for years active in the political
life of the county and former sheriff,
he is known to the people in all parts
of the county.
Coroner T. T. Parker, together with
Hansen's ambulance arrived at Sill
verlake Monday evening just after
Under-sheriff Knipfer and deputies
from the sheriff's office, Keul, Otto
and Bostetter had reached the scene
The coroner instituted an immediate
investigation, anG, learned that there
was no eye witness of the accident
other than the living participant, Mr.
Stahl Inquest has been set for We'd
nesday morning at ten o'clock in the
municipal court.
