State Educator Callahan Says
Normal School at Present
Cannot Train Teachers.

State Superintendent Callahan
claims that the training of teach
ers for the schools in Wisconsin
is very vital state problem y
His statement was made at Mad
ison last week during the session
of the meeting of county and city
superintendent held in that city.
THE Normal schools of the
state are at the present time mad
equate to train all the teachers
needed by the state schools" Cal
lahan said in pointing out the diff
ficulties in financing Wisconsin,
nine Normal schools.
Mentally subnormal and under
privileged children are a problem
also for the state as WHOLE" Cal
lahan declared. Eventually these
children become the charges of
the state and are taken care of in
state institutions. If we can train
them to be self supporting, we
will not only spend the money at
a time when it does more good,
but will result in an actual saw
ing of. large amounts"
County Superintendent Austin
of Villas county, attended this
meeting with nearly every other

Richard White Resigns From
Rural Mail and Takes Am
erican.

After this week the American
Railway Express office in Eagle
River will be under the manage
ment of Richard White, who, in
order to accept this position has
resigned from the postal depart
ment as rural carrier on Route /.
His position as carrier is being
filled at present by Henry Schmidt
Jr., his substitute, until an ex-
animation is held for a regular
carrier.
On account of sacrificing his
regular business, L. J. Kuehne has
resigned from the express office,
which he has conducted for many
years. The business is too confn-
ing for Mr.. Kuehne, and with his
electrical and sports business. Mr..
Kuehne will after this week, re-
model the interior of his store
and reft to handle complete
line of electrical, radio, sporting
and misc allaneous articles such as
the average persons finds need in
this lake region. He will also add
a neat line of shelf hardware in
connection.
While local representative for
the American Railway Express
company, Mr.. Kuehne builded a
rather large friendship for hts
courteous treatment to the public,
and being true disciple of the
famed Sir Izaak and one who loves
the great outdoors, he will now
be in a position to fill the long
ings at least every weekend for
the woods and streams.
The express office will be re-
moved to Division street in the
old Review building just east of
Adams Bros. store. 1t is said that
an attempt will be made to have
express delivery added before next
year, something that is vitality
needed in Eagle River.

DEATH OF MRS. MORGAN
Wife of Eagle River Business
ManlsDied Last. Saturday
Evening After Long Ill
ness.

Saturday evening last occurred
the death of Mrs. Alfred Morgan
at the summer home on Deerskin
lake after a long illness from tu-
bercular trouble. For two years
past Mrs. Morgan had very poor
health and her taking had been
expected for several months. A
year spent in Arizona failed in
restoration of health, and on the
return of Mr.. and Mrs. Morgan
from Tucson, Arizona this spring,
the family had lived mostly in the
open on Deerskin lake in hopes of
beneitting the latter's condition.
Mrs. Morgan passed easily away
about nine o'clock Saturday even
ing.
Ida Dorcas Fuller, daughter Of
Mr.. and Mrs. M. A. Fuller, was
born September 3, 1886, at Han
cock, Waushara county, Wiscon-
sin. The family moved from there
to Grand Rapids (now Wisconsin
Rapids in 1889. In 1900 they
journeyed to Henderson, Maryland,
where after a short residence they
removed to Minocqua, Wisconsin.
This was in 1901. Mrs. Morgan at
tended the Eagle River high school
for two years and in 1905 gradual
ed from the Minocqua schools.
She was married to Alfred Nor
gan of Eagle River, senior mem
Der of the firm of James Morgan
& Sons, on December 81, 1908. To
this union six children came: Mel
lie Grace, James, Edward, Mar
garet, William and Walter. All
are living except Nellie Grace who
died two years ago at the age of
eleven.
Mrs. Morgan was a member of
the Eastern Star and Royal Neigh
bors and also of the Episcopal
church, and with her broad ac-
quaintance throughout the eastern
and central part of the county,
had acquired an extra large circle
of friends, who yesterday paid 81
lent tribute to the taking of
mother and wife and friend from
a community family.
Short services were held from
the home on Deerskin lake yester-
day afternoon at two o'clock. Rev.
w. J. Davies officiating, assisted
by choir of her old friends in
the village and from Rhinelander.
Burial was made at the Eagle
River cemetery. 1t was one of
the largest funerals held lately,
and gave evidence of the sympa-
thies which Mr.. and Mrs. Morgan
and the little family hold here.
In her death there is left hus-
band, a father, a sister, and two
brothers. The father is M. A. Full
Ter late of Maine; the sister Mrs.
j. B. Cook of Eagle River, and
two brothers, w. B. Fuller and AL
fred Fuller now residents of Cali
fornia.

WANTS LAW REPEALED
and Resort Men
are After Commission and
Legislature for Repeal of
"Baby Fish Law"

The ''baby fish" law, enacted by
the last legislature, will have hard
shedding at the coming session of
the legislature, and there are
hopes of the commission being
able to kill it before 1925.
The fish laws were changed at
the last session of the legislature,
allowing any sized fish to be TAX
en- and shipped. Thus, if the ang-
Ter is so inclined, he will take ev-
cry fish he hooks and still be up
held by the law.
An instance of what happened
in Eagle River last week shows
just what the law does to game
fish. One party brought in a box
of twenty-six pike with a gross
weight of twenty pounds. They
had placed the twenty-six fish in
one box and failed to realize that
but ten fish in one box was per-
mitted. Inquiry revealed that
there were three pike out of the
twenyt-six which weighed two
pounds each, leaving twspty-three
pike weighing but fourteen pounds
or a trifle over nine" ounces each.
These men claimed to be sports
men and stated that "the law per-
mitted the taking of any size
fish"
They were right at that. At
the meeting of the Resort Owners
Association last Friday, commit
tee was appointed to legislate for
the placing back in the statutes
of the old weight and size limit
on game fish. Resort men and
sportsmen realize the immediate
action in stopping the taking Of
game fish of any size. For years
past there has been no muskel-
lunge fry planted in the lake re-
gion in any quantity, and one now
sees the depletion of that game
fish if the size limit is allowed to
be dropped.
The Wisconsin Motorists Asso-
citation, and the Resort Owners
Association are having placards
printed in great numbers for dis
tribution throughout the lake re-
gion, calling the sportsman's at
tention to stop taking baby fish.
The placard reads:

TO MAKE BIG EXHIBIT
Lake Region Resort Men and
Sportsmen to Make Killing
at National Outdoor Show
in Chicago.

The exhibits to be made at the
1924 National Outdoor Exposition
at Chicago by lake region resorts,
sportsmen and business men, will
be the leading feature of that big
show which will be held in the
Chicago Coliseum in May, 1924.
From facts obtained the exhib-
it's made last May by the Resort
Owners Association Of this lake
region of Wisconsin brought an
increase in business to those re-
sorts who cater to vacationists.
When the assets of this wonder
land are shown to the outdoor
man and woman in reality, there
is left no alibi why they should
not spend their vacation in Nor
thern Wisconsin. And that this
happened after viewing the display
of attractions made at the 1923
outdoor exposition, has been fully
demonstrated by the past seasons
returuns.
At the annual meeting of the
Resort Owners Association held at
Camp Vudesare on Lac Vieux Des-
ert last Friday, the association
signed up for a large number of
booths. Four will be used by the
assication to- extell the lake re-
gion as an outing and recreational
section, and will advertise those
resorts who are members of the
association, Booths have been
signed up for by Phelps, State
Line, Eagle River, Three Lakes,
Saymer, Star Lake, Minocqua, Pei
lean, and many have been author
lied under supervision OF indlvld-
ual resorts who will place their
own exhibits.
Milo E. Westbrooke, manager OF
the Coliseum and the Outdoor Elk
position, was a guest at the an
nual meeting and picnic dinner.
He made a decided success of the
show last year, and now has al
most completed the signing up OF
space in the big show building.
Mr.. Westbrooke spent six weeks
this summer touring this lake re-
gion, securing data on Northern
Wisconsin's lakes, woods and
streams. He will put over one OF
the biggest events for the resort
man and business men ever car
ried out in the States at any prev
ious time.
A feature he will work up for
building of closer relationship be-
tween city people and Northern
Wisconsin boosters will be made
public before the winter is over,
and will certainly be drawing
card for exhibitors and every IN
terested person in the region.
Resort and business men who
have not singed up for space In
next years exhibit, will be visited
soon and their membership secur-
ed. If this lake region is to be
kept forward in the minds of the
recreationist, the resorts and bus.
mess men of the district Will
needs come together and show
what we have that will be of IN
terest to the outdoor person.

4rean From cassIna Plant.

Laboratory investigations by the bu-
reau Of chemistry, United States De-
partment Of Agriculture, have shown
that very delightful beverage resem-
bling tea in many respects can be made
from cassina, a wild plant that grows
abundantly in the South Atlantic and
Gulf states from Virginia to Texas,
when the leaves Of the plant are treat
ed by processes similar to those used
In curing tea. The cassina plant has
been used to a limited extent by In
dians and, during the Civil war when
tea and coffee could not be obtained,
by people Of the Southern states to
make beverage. Unless properly
cured, however, cassina does not make
good beverage.
1t having been demonstrated in the
laboratory that cassina could be treat
ed by processes similar to those used In
the tea industry and an excellent bev-
erage made from it, work has been un-
dertaken to produce it on a larger scale.
An experimental plant has been in
stalled near Charleston, S. c., and pre-
liminary reports indicate that the labo-
ratory results can be duplicated on a
commercial scale.

( stockmen Fight Pests.

Stockmen In the Canadian river dis
trict in Texas have shown themselves
increasingly in accord with the poi
soning methods advocated by the bio
logical survey Of the United States
Department Of Agriculture for the ex-
termination of predatory animals, par
ticularly coyotes. In one district, pol
soning operations have resulted in a
kill estimated as between rs and 80
per cent Of the coyotes over an area
of 2,2O2 square miles. A border strip
five miles wide, and including approx
mately 1900 square miles, was poi
soned, with resultant kill Of % per
cent Of the coyotes. In coyote poison
ing operations stockmen do not usually
spend time hunting dead animals be-
yond the point where they are con-
WINGED of the effectiveness Of the meth
cd. 1t is considered more profitable to
devote as much time and energy as
possible to covering wider territory
with poison bats.

Has Renewed Youth.

In London there is a man who mocks
at the groupings Of science. He is
ninety-eight years old, and has grown
not only a third set Of teeth, but also
has new eyesight. Up to last year he
was forced to eat soft foods and wear
glasses, now, with his newly devel-
opened teeth and eyesight he may eat
the toughest steak and read the small

the great medical experimentalist,
says that it would be possible for man
to grow new tissues. eyes. teeth, thy
roid glands, If they could manage to
live to the age Of about one hundred

ty-eight, the Londoner has commenced
to develop brand new tissue. The only
