RIVER FALLS HORSESHOES
FOR PRIZE-WINNING CLYDES

w. H. Thomson and L. Bergstrahl
went out to Fay Bros. stables near
New Richmond to fill special order
of horseshoeing on three show horses
which are to be exhibited at the Wis
consin state fair and the following
week at the National Horse Show in
Chicago.
Many years ago Mr.. Fay had val
liable horse Quilted with shoes by
MIR. Thomson, and to this day he has
that set of shoes hanging conspicu-
ously in his barn as an example of
expert workmanship.
Therefore, when Fay Bros wanted
an exceptionally particular job done
on their blue-ribbon Clydes, they sent
for Mr.. Thomson, who took the fit
tings, made the shoes in his shop
here, and, with Mr.. Bergstrahl, went
to New Richmond and outftted the
three horses for their trip on the
show circuit.

COLLEGE COURSES CUT FROM
STATE NORMAL SCHOOLS

Madison-When WisconsiL's nine
normal schools open for the fall term,
Sept. 10, they will offer teacher train
ing courses alone, with college cours-
es, formerly part of the curriculum,
abolished.
William Kittle, secretary of the
board of normal regents, announces
that the determination of the normal
board to do away with college courses
in normal schools went into effect
July 1, and will be carried over to the
next school year. An attempt made
in the legislature to require the nor
NAL schools to offer college training
failed in the seLate.
During the last year that college
courses were offered as part of the
curriculum of the Oshkosh, Milwau-
kee, Superior, Stevens Point, Eau
Claire, Lacrosse and River Falls Nor
NAL schools more than 900 students
entered the courses. In 1922 large
number of these are said to have end
ed their work, because of the board or
der terminating the courses. Mr.. Kit
tie said the university has given as
surance that students completing two
years of normal school work will be
admitted to university classes with
credit for their normal school studies.

rapine and murder result, but rather
in a country whose national machin-
cry moves smoothly and suffers no
great injury form this awful shock?
The mortal remains of our lament
ed President are being carried across
the continent in the arms of the ma
ton, to its capitol, from thence to his
boyhood home at Marion, Ohio, where
the casket from which the jewel is
gone will be laid.
Death is thing from which we all
shrink and yet we come almost in
daily contact with it. We should stop
to consider that it is the mosS just iii
its operation of any OF the ma .ural
laws. 1t makes no discrimination in
class or creed. 1t does not pass the
home of the President and enter the
home of the civilian, nor pass the
throne-room of king to stop in the
home of the peasant. Rich and poor,
great and small, wise and ignorant,
good and bad must all obey the law
which says that all must die; we must
all pay the honest debt we owe to ma
ure.
What shall we l say of the man?
That which have CLEANED from my
reading, and it embodies some of the
choicest sentiments that could be
spoken of man. The great asset in
the beginning of the departed Presi-
dents life was the example daily set
before him by his righteous father
and mother, and in the character
forming period of his life he never got
away from that influence through his
remaining years, so that in him the
manly virtues of heart and soul were
at the maxium. He possessed good
ness and charity, wit and humor, an
alysis, logic and knowledge of human
nature, freedom from prejudice and
bias, equanimity in all things, modes
ty and self respect, kindness and yet
dignity. He seemed to have none of
he shortcomings which so often mar
the great men of history. He fills SO
large place in human annals that he
rises superior to mere words. Within
and yet beyond the man, was spirit
uality rarely encountered in political
life, which suggests great reformers
and martyrs of the race, rather than
a busy worker and tireless statesman.
He was each and all of these, and in
each phase of his character presents
a completeness which will never be
forgotten.
"The morning glory CLEANS a few
glad hours;
The shafted lilies and the rosebud
bowers
Bloom through the centuries and they
dissolve away.
But through the centuries an oak tree
towers
Der all the rest of natures proud
array.
1.-THE stars which Shine in splendor
from the skies
Tonight, are the lost tomorrow TO the
eyes;
Or else to galaxies unborn give place,
All but the Polar Star, which never
flies,
But stands, the fitting symbol of our
race"

In Memoriam
BY DR.. T. w. Ashley
To The Members of This National
Family:
Warren G. Harding, the twenty
ni.,th president of these United
States of America and head OF our
household has passed away. The end
came with swiftnesa of the lightning
stroke, SCATTERING the hopes OF the
people of a great nation for his re-
covery. All that the most skillful
medical care, and trained nursing
could do had beer done; the loving
presence of his devoted wife, mag
nifcient woman, the first lady in the
land; all these availed nothing, and
the end came swiftly, silently and un-
expectedly.
In nearly every city, village and
hamlet within the borders of this ma
ton, its people, members of this great
national household, have met, are
meeting, or will meet to pay tribute
to his memory.
The news of his demise has been
flashed around the world, and already
messages of coincidence are pouring IL
from foreign countries for our great
national loss, and also to his bereaved
wife.
Already his successor has entered
his Office. In the dim and small hours
of the night, in the house IT. which he
was barn, with his hand upon the ole
family bible, his aged father admin
istered the oath of office, and vice
president Calvin Coolidge became
president of the United States of
America. The machinery of govern
next has not missed revolution,
suggesting that the perpetuity of the
national household is greater than
the man.
Members of this great family, are
we not to be congratulated that our
citizenship does not rest in country
that on the removal by death of its
chief officer, would lose its equilibri-
UNI and national poise, and riot and
