A PROGRAM AT RETREAT

A party of Viroqua folks drove to
Retreat Thursday evening and pre-
serted a program by invitation of that
live progressive Retreat Community
Club. Harry James, poppy and effici-
ent president of the Retreat club,
acted as master of ceremonies, and
sure did the job up right. Program
consisted of solos by Mrs r. NJ. Nye
and Editor Goldsmith, quartette num-
bers by Mrs. Nye, Mrs. A. E. Smith,
and Messrs. f. M. Ny. and II. +. Gold
smith, addresses by Congressman j.
d. Beck, Mayor A. E. Smith and Edi-
tor Goldsmith, and short talk by
Robert Nixon.
The hall was crowded to capacity,
and the Retreat folks seemed TO app
preciate the program. The Censor
editor can truthfuily say that If they
enjoyed il as much as the Viroqua
folks enjoyed the general hospitality
and the refreshments following the
program, then everyone was well sat
listed.

FORD RETAIL SALES
MAKE new RECORD
OMPANY EP0RTS TOTAL
SALES HAVE REACHED 5,7O9
MACHINES A DAY

Retail sales of Ford Cars. Trucks
and Tractors established new high
record during June, when, according
to statement issued from the Ford
Factory at Detroit, an average of
5,709 machines were sold daily.
! Ford sales have ben showing a con-
slant increase each month this year:
June being the highest in the history
of the company with total of 49,
439 Cars, Trucks and Tractors. Of
this number, 6054 were sold by the
Ford Company of Canada, and CABS
by the various European Ford Com
panies and South American Branches,
reaching purchasers in practically ev-
cry civilized country in the world.
With the closing of bushes for June,
Ford records disclosed the fact that
total sales for the first six months of
1922 were we'll over the half-million
mark, the exact figures being 652 ,26I.
This is also new high record as it is
considerably in advance of any pre-
yious half-year period.
July Ford sales are expected to
equal, and probably eclipse June. The
estimated output of Cars, Trucks, and
Tractors has been placed at ISL ,767,
although dealers have req1isitioned
more than 100000
Ford officials state that every at
tempt has been made to supply their
dealers with sufficient cars to fill their
orders, but that for the past three
months, prompt deliveries have been
impossible with some of the types.
The demand for Ford enclosed cars
has been especially hard to meet, due
to the ever-increasing popularity of
the Coupe and Sedan for all year
around use.
A reflection of general business con-
ditions is seen in the record of Ford
truck sales, which show an increase of
eighty-four per cent over last year
Merchants and farmers alike have
come to recognize the utility of the
motor truck in cutting transportation
costs and speeding up deliveries, and
the fact that they are buying nearly
twice as many as a year ago clearly
points to better business conditions.
At the present time, Ford is en-
ploying $4,000 men in Detroit.

ing made Next Sunday, the Viroqua

Grounds. Also on Thursday afternoon
at o'clock, Bud will cross bats with

RAIN MARS Big
GUERNSEY MEETING

Guernsey breeders of the county
had planned big gathering near
Genoa for last Sunday, and q very
good crowd gathered to enjoy the PFC
mic, but in common with many other
gatherings planned for the day, the
event was much marred by the ram
storm in the afternoon However, a
mighty pleasant time was had in spite
of this.
The meeting was addressed by Mr..
hurry, who is an agent of the Wiscon-
sin Livestock Breeders Assn. and con-
nected with the University. He. gave
a great deal of information valuable
to the breeders. Congressman j. d..
Beck spoke of the fight he is putting
up in Congress in favor of agricultur
al measures, such as the filled milk
bill, the elimination of dairy substi-
tutes, etc. Our farmers should stand
by him to a man.

OPEN A FINE new STORE

On Friday of this week, the Cash
store in the Will Atkins building late
" occupied by the Sauer Hardware.
From a humble beginning a few
months ago in small store two doors
south of the Censor Office, the two
hustling propriators have so enlarged
their business that it has become nee
essary to seek larger quarters in or
der to properly handle the volume of
trade with which they have been fav-
ored by the public. Ira fainter and
Norris Bergen are fine young fellows,
hard workers, and thoroughly merit
the patronage accorded them. For
the present they plan to operate both
stores. We congratulate them on the
expansion.

BIG MASONIC DEDICATION

Masonic brethren TO the number Of
of fifty journeyed to Richland Center
tsom this city last Friday to attend
the dedication of Richland Centera
fine new Masonic temple. Over
thousand Masons marched in the big
parade in the afternoon, and four
bands enlivened the suspicious occas-
ion with martial music, also giving
continuous concerts on the street, end
ing with big massed band concert
in the eveningin the Court House park.
One of the features of the day was
the Masonic lecture in the afternoon.
The lecture was open to the general
public, and the lecturer dealt very
frankly with many phazes of Masonry
for the general information of the
public. Never was a truer statement
made than his defination of Masonry
as being "a religion without a creed"
Every element of religious and moral
practice Is Incorporated into Masonic
tenets, and never is the lodge opened
without the Holy Bible lying open on
the altar. He said that some people
were want 10 critieise Masonry be-
cause some of its members dad not live
up to its teachings, yet the same crit
icism is made Of the Church, and is
most unjust to both institutions. Both
try TO bring out the very best in every
man, yet some people are beyond the
saving power Of either.
In the evening, the honor Of confer
ring the work Of the Master Mason de-
gree upon the candidate was given TO
the Viroqua team, and in the presence
of oger three hundred Master Masons
our team went through the age-old and
impressive ritualistic ceremony that
ushered one more soul into the ranks
of the fraternity Our boys were
highly praised for the Impressive man
ner in which their work wGs present.
ed. Entertainment for the Viroqua
Masons was provided by the Riehland
Center lodge following the lodge work.
The Richland Center lodge Is surely
TO be congratulated over les enterprise
IN constructing such a beautiful and
elegant home TO minister to the COM
fort and enjoyment Of the brethren.
The first floor is occupied with bowling
alleys, billiard and pool tables, card
rooms, toilets, etc. Rest rooms and a
large dining and dance hall occupies
the second floor, and here the frater-
nifty made merry until late hour
following the other events OF the day.
On the third floor is their beautiful
homelike lodge room and parapher-
MALTA rooms. Their lodge room is sim
ply gem, the rich tapestry and rugs
and pleasing furniture lending most
homeike touch to the same.
Dedication of viroqua's fine new
Temple viii take place the latter part
of August or the early part of Septem-
Der, and the Richland Center lodge viii
confer the degree work Let this
brethren all prepare to give them a
royal welcome.

EKERN- ZIMMERMAN SPEAK

Progressive Candidates Ekern and
Zimmerman dropped Ia Thursday, and
although very tired from a hard day
of speaking, nevertheless addressed a
good-sized audience on the street and
made a very favorable impression,
Mr., Ekern is a particularly able and
convincing speaker and fine gentle
man 10 whom we are pleased TO give
our hearty endorsement. The Censor
editor enjoyed a very delightful visit
with him. During the course of the
talk, he had the following to say con-
corning our two local Progressive can
didates for legislative positions:
Il have seen Joe Beck at work at
Washington. He has a remarkable
standing for man who has been there
only one term. He is the recognized
leader and spokesman for the labor
people, and The farm representatives
look to Joe Beck as their most active
champion. He is always on the job,
and chat means everything where the
of both the farmers and the
laborers always have their representa-
tives on the job"
August +. Smith has impressed
me as a man Of ability and integrity
who will make his mark as a represen-
tative from this county. The county
that sends to Madison representative
of that kind and keeps him there will
have the largest influence and win get
the greatest benefits from its repre-
in our state legislature. 1t
is the counties that send strong men
year after year that do the most good
for their own people and for the whole
state. | am sure Vernon County can
not do better than to send August Il.
Smith to the Assembly and it is the
most important office to which they
are TO elect anyone this year"

years ago when. M. J. was a little
