SOCIAL GROWTH
Is CLUB TOPIC

A lieutenant governor and a for
zner lieutenant governor of the state
sBat side by side at the regular meet
ing of the Kiwanis club on Wednes-
day, an incident that never happened
before in the history of the organiza-
tion. The address was by Lieutenant
Governor George r. Comings of Mad
isOn and former Lieutenant Governor
e. r. Dithmar of Baraboo presided.
The speaker took for his subjec,,
Social Building He spoke of his
family extending back in the history
s0f this country for some 300 years and
that he was sometimes mentioned as
"a radical in politics. He said he was
glad to come to Baraboo to express
his views.
The earth has been here for ages,
ne said, and the future may be a
vast length of time We only know
that civilization has been on the earth
for a few thousand years and that
may be but flash Of lightning to
she vast extent of time that is to
follow. In the meantime civilization
lis becoming more complex and he said
some of the conservatives fail to get
the right viewpoint
He compared our civilization to a
growing tree, to stream that flows
eHn4 One may attempt to bind the
tree around the body but it continues
TO grow and eventually breaks its
bonds a river is an innocent stream
fn the beginning but when damned
below the water becomes a power.
Society must grow, must move on or
there will be a revolution All should
cultivate an open mind, he said We
should be willing to try experiments,
should Danish antagonisms.
For Public Utilities
The speaker was in favor Of the
public owning it's utilities and Operat-
ing them on the basis Of service
Every citizen should ask, What is
my duty to the community" He ad-
vised his hearers to read Mind in
the Making" and hoped this country
would become the beacon light for
all the world.

BARABOO FIVE
BEAT REEDSBURC

In one Of the fastest games played
in Reedsburg high, Friday, the Bara-
boo basketball team won a hard
fought battle 1t was a game which
showed the fighting spirit Of both
teams.
Reedsburg took the lead in the first
five minutes of play by a score of 6
to o. Baraboo called time out and
came back strong and held Reeds
burg the rest of the half scoreless
and at the same time piling up Is
points to their credit This was due
to cooperation Of the team and splen-
did team work The team showed
that team work means victory. The
second half Reedsburg started off
with a bang and slow but sure piled
up few points and the third quarter
ending II to u in Baraboos favor.
The last quarter was fight by the
guards which is indicated by the
score as Reedsburg counted three
points to Baraboo's two. With three
minutes to go Baraboo started their
famous stalling game and if anybody
thinks it was not credit to the team
would change their minds if they
saw the game.
Reedsburg is coming here next
Friday evening with blood in their
eyes and it is a good bet that the
two teams will fight to the finish and
it is also certain that the score will
be a close one. Baraboo will have a
good referee, as did Reedsburg last
night, and the game will in this way
be kept clean and no fists will be
flying.
No individual starred for Barabou.
but all played a consistent game.
The work of the two guards, All Boyd
and Ivan Reuland, was splendid while
Gafke, Lenihan and Captain Art Hay
ward were on the scoring ends with
the assistace Of Al Boyd with two
baskets.
