Just brush little Gostora through
your hair. it acts like mage!
InstantIy-it imparts a bright, bril-
iInat, silky sheen. and makes your hair
fairly sparkle and glow with natural
gloss and luStre.
This clear liquid dressing Is not sticky,
pasty or greasy, and can't possibly show
on the hair.
Glostora keeps the wave and curl In,
and leaves your hair so soft and pIiabIe,
fhere is not the slightest difficulty In
managing it. Even when used after
shampooing, your hair stays any style
you arrange 1t.
Costs but trifle at any drug store.
Just as good for men and boys as for
Women.

Why Continue To Be Fooled

to withhold further support Not so
with state or nation whose resources
are almost limitless and whose tax
payers are bound by law to pay their
assessments
Bad business management on the
part of public officials seldom bank
rupts city, state or nation, but it
sends taxes sky-high, and the defense
less tax payer, (you, me and the other
fellows) are compelled to pay or loose
our property If taxes continue to in
crease during the next few years as
they have during the last few it
might be more profitable for us to lose
our property and leave the state than
to pay taxes.
Good business management and poll
tics in public affairs rarely are pre-
sent at the same time. Politics, as we
have come to understand it is a
game played by office seekers to get
office, or by office holders to keep
office. Politics differs from an ordinary
game of chance, because it is always
played at the expense of the people.
Politicians agree only when it is
to their advantage to do so. Political
expendiency, which means selfish per
sonal political protection, is the only
guage by which they measure the
things they advocate The proposals
on which they believe they can fool
the most voters are the ones they Of
fer in their platforms. The welfare of
the state and the businesslike admin
istration of is affairs are considered
only after they have given careful
consideration to their own personal,
selfish political future. For years tax
payers have been hoodwinked and
buncoed in that way. But, thanks to
an awakening intelligence, there now

Local Building Program
Is Progressing Rapidly
MANY NEW BUILDINGS BEING
ERECTED IN THE VILLAGE
THIS SEASON

The e. d. Richmond business build
ing on Wall street is now being plas
tered and should be ready for use
by the Richmond Pharmacy within
month or so. A partition that cuts
off nice room on the east side of
the building will be occupied as a
barber shop by John La Crosse as
soon as completed, and the entire
building is decided addition and i'm
proyement to Wall st.
A. H. LaRenzie is building store
room addition at the rear of his
store, using concrete blocks to match
the part built last year and which
will increase his amount of store
space considerably.
The new store building Of Ewald
Bros. on Main st, is fast taking shape
the basement being completed and
the walls of tile and brick now being
laid. 1t will be decided improve
ment to the street when finished and
is built SO that it can be used for any
purpose they may in future desire
although for the present it will serve
for warehouse.
The bricklaying on the new G. &
N. w. depot began Friday morning
to run as high as the windows, the
upper portion to be of stucco finish
and it is now apparent that the build
ing will be one that will add a great
deal to the appearance of Railroad
street and a credit to the company
and Eagle River for which it is being
built to serve.
The large new home of Mart Hir-
eel in Lake Park Addition is fast be-
ing completed and is one of the class
lest homes that has been built here
in a number of years 1t has all mod
ern conveniences and is finished in
stucco. 1t commands a wonderful
view Of both Silver and Yellow Birch
lakes and will be a home for any one
to feel proud of.
The residence of A. J. Austin on
Third ST., is another of the many
fine residences that have been built
in Eagle River in the past few years
and is to be ready for occupancy by
November.

are riffs in the clouds. There are
signs of independent thinking on the
part of taxpayers and voters. Work
ing men, farmers, business and pro-
fessional men everywhere are begin
ming to realize they have been the
dupes of politicians. They know they
have been dancing to the music of
office holders and office seekers and
have been paying a high price for the
piper. How much longer a majority
will let themselves be thus fooled, re
mains to be seen. We predict, not
long.
Some day soon, we hope, the people
are going to awaken to the fact that
they are being fooled. They are going
to see the unWisdom of electing to
public office men whose business abil-
ity has not been proven. And when
that day comes, the people in all their
tremendous might will rise to sing
the swan song of the professional pol
itician. Politics, as we know it todoy,
like a whipped cur with tail between
its legs, will stink into the back
ground, and professional politicians,
the present day curse of public bust
ness, will fade away like the proven
bial dew before the morning sun.
If we are satisfied with high and
ever increasing taxes, if we are salts
fled to run our public business in a
way that our private business would
go bankrupt almost over night and
by men, some of whom we wouldn't
hire to run peanut stand, then we
should keep on sending to public Of
flee the professional politician. If we
do not like these things, the remedy is
in our hands. More business and less
politics is a good slogan Wisconsin

Land O. Lakes Assn. Is
Active In First Year
WISCONSIN LAND O'LAkES ASSN.
WILL HOLD CONVENTION AT
AMIGO, OCT. TENTH

Amigo has been selected as the Con
yention City for the second annual
meeting of the Wisconsin Land
O'Lakes Association (Inc) held We'd
nesday October 10th, 1928.
One of the finest programs is now
being prepared and it is the desire of
the management that the people Of
Northern Wisconsin show their appre-
citation of the wonderful record this
Association has made during the past
year by being present
This Association has been a huge
success the first year and has receiv-
ed from all parts of Wisconsin so
much encouragement that the second
year promises to exceed even the fond
est hopes of its most optimistic sup
porters.
Judging by what the Association
has accomplished in 1923, some of the
biggest men in the State of Wisconsin
prophesy that the organization is des
tined to be one of the most important
factors in the development of the
great northern woods and lake region.
The program will bring out some
amazing facts relative to the possibili
ties of State development OF Northern
Wisconsin.
Everybody interested in this devel-
opment should keep this big Conven-
ton in mind.

Bad management is a leading cause
of bankruptcy. It was stated in pre-
vious article that only about five per
cent of those who engage in business,
succeed. Ninety-five per cent fail or
quit before that calamity hits them.
Looking over the bankruptcy re-
cords for the past few years in Wis
consin, we find bad management
chargeable with many of the failures.
Business is neither sentiment nor
saIve. There are certain fundamental
principles that business men must
stick to or they do not succeed. There
are qualifications that business mana
gers must have either by God-given
gift or acquired by training, or they
fail.
It makes no difference what the
business is; Business from the hair
pin to the locomotive; from the potato
patch in your back yard to the 1000
acre Canadian wheat field; from the
peanut stand on downtown curb
to the worlds greatest department
store and from pond master in Po-
dunk to the greatest office within the
gift of the people, In short, business
is business, whether it is private or
public.
When politics enters business, sue
cess is on its way out. That is true
whether it is the business of a pri-
vate corporation or whether it is that
very much bigger business of state
or nation in which every citizen is a
part owner.
There is one vital difference be-
tween private and so-called public
business. Bad management can send
a private business into bankruptcy be-
cause of its limited finances and be
cause its stockholders are privileged

WHEN THE PAPER
DOESN'T COME

Ny father says the paper that he
reads amt put up right,
He finds lot of fault, he does, perus-
ing it at night;
He says there amt a single thing in
it worth while to read
And that it doesn't print the kind of
stuff that people need.
He losses it aside and says it's strict
" ION the bum,'
But you ought to hear him boiler when
the paper doesn't come.
He reads about the weddin's and he
snorts like all get out;
He reads the social doins with the
most derisive shout;
He says they make the paper fol the
women folk alone.
He'll read about the parties and he'll
fume and fret and groan,
He says of information it don't con-
tain a crumb-
But you ought to hear him boiler when
the paper doesn't come.
He's always first to grab it and he
reads it plumb clear through;
He doesn't miss an item or want ad
that is true;
He says "They don't know what we
want, them durn newspaper guys.
I'm going to take day some time
and go and put them wise
Sometimes it seems as if they must
be blind and deaf and dumb
But you ought to hear him boiler

this year, bringing them to total of
1,212,533 70 the eight months up to
September /, promise to maintain the
same proportions during the fall sea
son.
At least, this is indicated by the
number of orders on hand at the first
of the present month. The new type
Ford cars, now in the hands of prac-
tically all dealers in the country, are
attracting widespread attention.
The tnedency toward enclosed car
buying is growing more noticeable and
in this connection the four-door Ford
Sedan is gaining in popularity as the
family car. This Sedan has enjoyed
lively demand ever since its introduce
ton and now, with improvements
which have come as result of the
higher radiator, it is more attractive
in appearance than ever before. The
Ford Coupe, which is new in design
and with many refinements, is enjoy
ing unusual popularity.
Business and agricultural interests
continue to make increasing demands
for Ford Trucks and sales for August

Larger Patronage For
Health Center Needed
MATERNITY and INFANT HEAL TIL
CENTER DAY TO BE HELD
OCTOBER 4, 1928.

The Maternity and Infant Health
Center day will be held at the Court
House, Oct 1923, at 900 a. m. to
500 p. m. Examinations will be made
by DR. Mildred Van Cleve of the State
Board of Health, Madison. This will
be DR.. Van Cloves last visit to Eagle
River as she is leaving The State
Board of Health to enter private prac
tice
During the past few months the at
tendance has e>,opped considerable
and unless we improve the attendance
it is feared that the Directors Of the
Health Center will feel it necessary
to remove the Center from Eagle
River. Everyone is urged to come and
help retain the work that has been
started Often times mothers feel
that it takes a good deal Of time and
work to attend, they also feel that
their children are in good health, so
why bother, this is all very true, but
how do you know? Every man who
owns any machinery goes over it a
couple of times a month to see that
it is i'll good working condition. Now
about your self and your children?
Some little defect found now, and
corrected may mean great deal lat
eron. Mothers please realize the value
of these examinations and bring in
the children. We want to have a
large attendance, the kind we had
last Fall. Remember the date, Oct. 4,
at the Court House.

A TRIBUTE TO FLENNER

| Southern Idaho has immense
cause for rejoicing in the passage Of
the bonds and contract which will
insure the building of the great Am
erican Falls Reservoir. When the
Arrowrock Dam was built and the
| Deer Flats become the home of Lake
Lowell, impounding the waters OF
fertility for thousands of acres we
Swallowed for the Boise Valley.
Today we see the longed-for Black
Canyon dam half completed and the
American Falls project assured.
In each one Of these great under
takings there were outstanding fig
ures whose efforts have eliminated
in completed monuments to unset
fish endeavor. In like manner the
successful completion of the prelim-
mary work which assures the build
ing of the American Falls project is
due to the untiring devotion, the
skillful handling and the downright
hard work of the Secretary of the
Idaho Reclamation Association, Guy
Flenner. While Mr.. Flenner had the
enthusiastic support of hundreds of
residents on the tracts affected, as
we'll as the moral support of all
Southern Idaho, yet to him belongs
all the credit due to the general in
command whose far-sighted plans
alone made victory possible. Hav-
ing to contend with selfish greed in
some cases, apathy in others, with
Misunderstanding and lack of in
formation, with lack of civic pride
and lack of community interest, he
patiently worked and argued and
showed. With wonderful perserver-
ance he managed to implant a moiety
of his enthusiasm into the people
within the big district, until, when
the crucial test arrived, his work
in wonderful vote in
which the minority was only repre-
sented by scant ten per cent of the
total vote cast.
Four or five years from now the
units comprising that ten per cent
will be thankful that they didn't
have their own way in the matter
