Mrs. G.. A. Gill, Union ST., says:
IF suffered from my kidneys for
about a year. l had draggy mis-
cradle kind of feeling all the time.
Some days / could hardly get
through with my housework My
head ached terribly and binding
dizzy spells almost drove me crazy.
The pains across my back went up
into my shoulder blades. 1t was
hard for me to stoop or bend.

in my family with good results SO I

or of their wives The supper was
at the home Mr. and Mrs. C. F.
Dewitt. There were 80 present and

first. The men washed dishes,
giving their wives an evening of
rest, and we all appreciated it very
much. 1t was planned as a surprise
and the wives were to know moth
ing of it until in the evening. They
took a collection to pay their ex-
penses, after which they had $3.50
left which they turned over to the
club. Many thanks to the hus-
bands.

was held at the home of Mrs. Sadie
Stephenson. About 40 were pres

course being chicken chowder. Then
a fine big turkey prepared by Mrs.

for the women, for none of them
knew she had it until while getting
the dinner she opened the oven
door and there was the turkey with
oyster dressing. AS it was a pot
luck dinner all took something too,
and there was pickle, pie, cake,

stating them. We recall many

still linger in our memory. To live

The Menace Of Taxation

Like prodigal son at the apex
Of his luxurious living, our legisla-
tors, city, county, state, and nation
al, are appropriating billions of
dollars yearly, some of it with ap-
parent disregard as to the necessity
of the appropriation, or at least it's
absolute necessity at the present
time.
1t is easy for the army of reform
ers and advocates of the almost
countless mprovements-both NOR
al and physical--to offer endless
and convincing arguments why this
thing, and that, is fundamentally
good. Few or none of them, in
their competition to get legislation
favorable to their own pet idea,
stop to consider where the money
is coming from or how the already
overburdened taxpayer is to pro-
vide the funds. Many of these OBJ
jects are admittedly good in them
selves, just as a favorite daughter
may insist on fur coats and automo-
biles of quality and quantity ex-
ceeding fathers ability to afford.
The coats and cars are good in
themselves beyond question, but
how about father?
Do our governments, city, state,
and national exist to serve the peo-
pie, or do the people exist to serve
the governments? If you have been
so busy paying taxes you have fail
ed to realize the giant growing up in
our midst, it is worth while to pom
der these figures:
In fiscal year 1894 taxes were
64 per cent of all we earned.
In fiscal year 192O-21 taxes were
13 per cent of all we earned.
In calendar year 1921 taxes were
one-sixth of our entire national in
come; and are still going strong.
1t is too early to determine the fig
ures for 1922, but regardless of
this appalling increase in so few
years, congressman are Juggling in
bills by the armfuls for all sorts of
excuses to spend millions upon mil
lions on their favorite hobbies.
We are not yet through scrapping
war material; we have pensions of
the Civil war, Spanish-American
war, and the recent war. There is
the tat this writing) proposed
bonus to the soldiers who were un-
injured; we have a big war debt
and billion yearly interest on it,
all in addition to endless accumu-
lated appropriations OF previous
congresses to be renewed yearly,
and the fast increasing expenses OF
the necessary departments of the
government. At home our state
Legislators are building stadia and
other structures at state universi-
ties; there is the natural increase in
new buildings to care for the in
creasing number of blind and in
sane, the wayward, and all the 9TH
er state asylums.

piano duet by Marion Henschel and
Frances Stone. This was followed by
a life sketch of Alice Freeman Palmer,
given by Pauline Martin. The next
number was a vocal solo by Ruth Men
ninger, after which Frances Stone read

Owing to a limitation of time, some
readings from Longfellow which were

stein had to be omitted.
The question for the debate in the
Twentieth Century Debating Society

According to a recent announcement
made by the Wisconsin Atni-Tubercu-
losis Association, Wauwatosa won one
of the first places among the prize
winning cities for the Christmas seal
sale, being awarded free chest clinic
to be held some time this year.
Classification was made on popula-
ton basis and two clinics were award
ed in each class, one each to the cities
making the largest percentage Of in
crease over last years sale and to the
city making the largest per capita sale.
OF the prize-winnIng cities in all
classes, Wauwatosa, with a total sale
of $62155, has the largest increase.
Wauwatosa's success in this enterprise
is largely due to the untiring efforts
of Mr.. Kolb, who was chairman of the
sale and distribution of Christmas
seals in this community, and his many
co-workers.
Mr.. Giles of the state department of
education visited our schools last
Thursday and Friday in the capacity
of high school inspector. He gave a
very favorable report of our schools,
details of which may appear later.

score of the first game as played by
the second teams was 10 to 16 in favor
Of our opponents. The score for the
last game was 30 to q IN our favor.

defeated West Allis, while we in turn
we're beaten by the latter school. The
