Greater evidence of a public Off
cial's devotion to duty than that evil
denced by Congressman Henry Allen
Cooper of the first District, is rarely
seen.
On the eve Of a primary election
in which his seat is being contested,
Mr.. Cooper has answered the Presi-
dents call, and returned to Washing
ton to attend to the Nations business.
In an hour of grave National con-
Germ, in these days when political
fences are so frequently Of more i'm
portance to an official than the pub
lie welfare, such devotion to duty
should be recognized and applauded.
The Cooper Campaign Committee
calls on all friends Of Congressman
Cooper as well as all fair minded
District to consider well the sterling
merit which has, for twenty-eight
years, characterized Mr.. Cooper's pub
lie service.
In these days when constantly re-
curing troubles of various nature
are testing the best brains of our
government, it is mo time to expert
ment. Mr.. Cooper is nationally rec
ognized as great congressional
leader. His reelection is more than
a function, of the First District of
Wisconsin. 1t is the duty of the
First District to the Nation of which
we are part.
Vote for. Cooper and ask your.
friends to vote for him.

zine. Ordinarily the turning leaves
hold on for two or three weeks, and
their rich dark red makes q magnifi-
cent show, especially if contrasted
with yellow foliaged trees. If planted

colored trees should be used with
them Their coloring is magnificent,
but needs the yellows to give it its
true value.

White Flowers and Moths.

The reason why certain pale flowers
smell sweetly when dusk falls is be-
cause they are pollinated by moths,
which are dusk-fying creatures The
scent is a guide to the winged visitors,
and the pale color also helps. Notice
honeysuckle, night-scented stock. and
