The Mothers meeting of the w. c.
T. u, which ives held at the home of
Mrs. A. Anderson last Friday, proved
a great success. A large number of
mothers were present, and some of the
speakers revealed many things to them
of which they had not dreamed. Shock
ing conditions are surrounding the boys
and girls of our community and it is
time the place was cleaned up. The
Union unanimously voted to help in
every possible way to make Edgerton
safe place for our children.
Mrs. Carl Maves was 80 years old

by her children, grandchildren and
great-grandchildren, all together maxi
ing party of about 40 near relatives
"-no came to the home of Otto Maves,
wLere she is staying, and offering their
congratulations and best wishes. Re-
freshments were served and a pleasant
evening spent by all. A sister of Mrs.
/ Maves, Mrs. Ratke of Portage, came
down to spend few days visiting her
sister and other relatives. Mrs. Maves
| is well, bright and active for her years.
Wisconsin is winning its way into
the graces of other states and other
nations as the breeding ground of high
| type dairy cattle. The Wisconsin Hol-
stems, Guernseys and Jerseys are be-
coming leaders, both the grades and
| the purebreds. The county and state
! breeders associations are serving the
state we'll in making the Wisconsin
| dairy breeds known throughout the
land. The quality" idea has taken
hold upon Wisconsin dairy farmers, and
| they have found that it pays. They
have also found that it pays to have
herds which have been tested and found
free from disease. Wideawake county
| agents are earning their salaries many
| times over.
The physicians and dentists of our
city have given their full cooperation
| to the schools in the health work being
conducted in our city. They have ex-
amined all the children in the first
seven grades, free of charge, which
was an excellent thing for the children
and which took much of the valuable
time of the physicians and dentists.
| The school authorities and the commun-
ity nurse are very appreciative of this
fine cooperative spirit displayed. The
examination of the 400 children of the
first seven grades, inclusive of kinder
garten children, by the physicians and
dentists of our city indicates the fol-
lowing conditions: In good condition,
no defects, 100; bad teeth, 23O; bad
| tonsils, 116; nasal defects, 81; defective
ears, 38; bad eyes, 10; anemia, z; skin
defects, 3; enlarged glands, 2.
e. Lynn Williams, reformer, lee
turer and pastor of Old Grace church
Chicago, spoke under the auspices of
the Congregational church Tuesday
evening in Culton Memorial hall to an
audience that enjoyed every moment of
the more than hour long lecture, the
theme of which was 1.-THE Great Game,
a lecture on Americanism by law en-
forcement. Earlier in the evening he
addressed the Masons and Eastern Star
at their banquet and during the fore
| noon spoke to teachers and students in
the high school assembly room. He
speaks as field secretary for the in
ternational students law enforcement
organization. Rev. Williams is known
from the. courageous and splendid work
he has done for social betterment in
one of the vice and disease ridden
neighborhoods of Chicago. Anyone
having read the Chicago papers is ia
| miliar with his record and has wonder
ed why some of the gang has not
''gotten" him.. DR.. Williams is an en-
pertaining and pleasing speaker, and
thoroughly in earnest about the cause
which he is espousing. The audience
Tuesday was to large extent young
folks and women. If he ever should
have return engagement in Edgerton
he would, undoubtedly, have very
cordial reception.
Achievement Day.
