Spring Green Person
Makes Trip Back TO
Old Home In Franklin

Last Monday George Claridge of
this village, together with his SON
in-law and daughter Mr.. and Mrs
Louis Upper drove to the site in
the town Of Franklin where Mr.
Claridges' parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
William Claridge settled when they
first came to Wisconsin, This was
in the fall of 1850 and George was
a boy IL years old, nearly IS
years ago. When the Claridge
family located there, large timber
grew on the hillsides and in the
valleys. There were in buildings
at that time and when the family
arrived at their destination they
ate their first meal spread under
the trees. Shelter for the winter
was provided with material taken
from Indian wigwams which were
scattered about in the timber. The
next summer a log house was butt
and the work of clearing the land
of the timber begun. Last Mon
day when Mr.. Claridge visited the
spot he had the pleasure of again
eating a meal out in the open where
he ate when a boy nearly three
quarters Of a century ago. The old
homestead is located about IL
miles southeast Of the village of
Plain, and Mike Hetzel is its pres
ent owner After finishing the
meal and taking sort of fare
we'll look at the old boyhood site

Mr.. and Mrs Topper returned via
the auto route this tramp took him
across hills and through valleys a
distance Of about five or six miles

civil war and stood guard over the
body of Lincoln. The uniform
which he wore on this occasion and
the. musket which he carried are

capitol. at Madison. MIR Claridge
enjoyed the trip and outing to his
boyhood scenes hugely, and says
he's getting younger every day.

FOR
Third TIM:
A Getaway a Day is
Record of Speeder
First Arrested Near
KilbOurn and Later
Brought Here

1t is believed that the man ar
rested near Kilbourn for speeding
on Saturday and again taken into
custody on Sunday night, making
second getaway in Baraboo, has
left these parts via the Portage
route and will probably not return
to claim the Paige roadster which
it is thought was stolen in Sioux
City, Iowa, and which is now in
the custody of Sheriff w. H. Ode.
About five o'clock Monday at
ternoon, a call was received at
the Warren house for a green cab
to take a party at 513 Second av-
enue to Portage. There is no
house at such number on Second
avenue but Clyde True drove to
the neighborhood and on corner
there picked up a man, who said
he was the party wishing to get to
Portage.
Enroute to that city, the strang
er aroused the suspicious of Mr..
True by his illusions to the es
cape Of the man here the night be-
fore and when Portage was reach
ed Mr.. True drove the car into a
garage and went in search of a po
liceman.
In the meantime his passenger
had persuaded the driver of Cad
lilac machine to speed off with
him and Portage authorities took
after but lost trace Of the car in
Columbus
To Waterloo
According to information re-
ceived here, the car in which the
man made his escape was one of
those belonging to the Harmon bus
line which formerly operated be-
tween Baraboo and Portage. The
driver was forced to take his pas
senger to Waterloo under the per-
suasion of a revolver pressed into
his ribs and was ordered to make
the trip at as miles an hour. When
Waterloo was reached, his passen-
ger made good his disappearance
without the customary formality
of settling for the ride.

TO BEAUTIFY THE HIGHWAYS

The campaign having for it's purpose the
Identification of the states highways,
as undertaken by the Alabama Fede-
cation of Women's Clubs, is expected to
receive that cooperative support for
which it makes strong public appeal.
1t is pointed out that the clubs in the va
1ious sections of the state are asked to
undertake Identification of stretches Of
highways leading to their towns and
Deighborhoods.
This is a practical, as well as an
aesthetic enterprise. Not only is it pro-
posed to plant on the roads shade trees
and shrubbery such as water oak, dog
wood and crepe myrtle, but pecan, hick-
DRY and black walnut which will prove
also of value in a practical way. Thus
will the highways, through this move
ment, afford benefits both in public COM
fort and in material welfare. That the
state forester has offered to cooperate in
the work by planting trees is encouraging
to the women workers who have under
taken this task, and offers an opportunity
to make touring more attractive to out
Siders and residents.
In a statement by the director of the
division of highway Identification of the
Federation of Woman's Clubs, she says
the work is not only step to make Ala
bama a more beautiful place in which to
live, but a real achievement along con-
servative lines. AS a constructive enter
prise it is hoped that the enterprise will
appeal not only to those who will be
actively engaged, but to the people of the
state

HOOVER TO STAY IN CABINET

Announcement that Herbert Hoover
will remain i. the presidents cabinet aft
er the fourth of next March will be well
coined by large part of the business
interests of the country, regardless OF
their political affiliations. Mr.. Hoover
is known to have declined much more
remunerative connections than the head
of the commerce department, because OF
his recognized administrative experience
and ability. He has been constructive in
his public duties and has done much to
render his department helpful to the
country's economic interests. He has
brought the Department of Commerce to
high state of efficiency, and has made
it an institution of value to the export
trade by keeping it in touch with COM
mercial conditions, needs and possibilities
in many parts of the world.
When Mr.. Hoover took charge of re-
lief work in Belgium he was unknown to
the American people. He was familiar
with conditions in many lands, however,
from his work as an engineer. His ad-
ministration of American relief work IN
Belgium was so successful and efficient
that many thousands of sufferers were
saved from starvation. He became
widely known for his practical efforts in
that arduous task, and it was largely
through his record in that work that he
was called into the Federal service.
The policy of frequent changes in the
federal service has been criticised on the
ground of losing values that are gained
by experience. 1t stands to reason that,
other things being equal, the man who
has long served in an administrative ca
pacity has the advantage of an untried
man who devotes much of his time famil-
iarizing himself with his new duties. Mr..
Hoover's ten years experience in the
public service is an asset to the country
That he has declined much more reml,n-
erative considerations to remain in his
present position manifests a spirit of
service that should increase his useful
ness.

Watching The Parade
By JOHN PILGRIM

IT'S a. pity that young married folk would
not form the habit of coming to me for
= guidance. 1 could give them so much good
advice. There's the Nortons, for example.
could have told the girl five years ago that
she would lose her husband
you always said she was delightful lit
tie woman" said Mrs Pilgrim at this point
in my reverie. "You used to rave about her
talent for home-making."
"Well-I did, of course-but Dolly Nor
ton went too far with it. Life is not made
up of the pleasures of the table and the amass-
ing of oriental rugs. A good deal of what is
four walls of ones home. And, unfortunately,
you do not stay in the procession if you stay
inside. And if you do not keep up with the
procession nowadays some one else is apt to
get your husband, or your wife as the case
may be. Domesticity is not what it was in
our forefathers' times. We do not live in log
cabins surrounded by deep woods and bowling
Indians.
Poor Bill Norton-and have just as much
pity for Bill as l have for Dolly-is con-

sic dancing, bright lights, talk. Not wastrel

But Bill does not function very well at home
more than three nights a week. The other
four he must be up and doing. Whereas poor
little Dolly-and love and pity her-would
never pass through her front gate if she
could help it. Her home is her world. That
world centers about Bill.
"And Bill is getting away" said Mrs. Pill
grim bitterly. "a poor, weak-minded fish.
lie has never realized what treasure he had
in Dolly"
Maybe Dolly did not realize what a treas
ure she had in Bill, too. Only he isn't the
sort of treasure that stays home every night.
There are all sorts of treasures.

to a wife to keep up with her husband if she

SHOULD IN NO EVENT BE IDLE

1t is apparent that neither the South
nor a very large part of the West have
lost any of their interest in the poten-
tialites of Muscle Shoals by the with
drawal of Mr.. Ford's bid. Both sections
realize the value of that great project,
both to the nation in the event of war
with a foreign power and to the agricul-
tural interests in time of peace, and they
have reason to hope that the government
will work out plan for its practical OPP
Grafton.
There is strong public sentiment that
government operation of the Shoals be
avoided as a last resort. In the prepara-
ton of a working measure by those demo-
cratic senators who supported the Ford
bill, the main purpose is to operate Muscle
Shoals for the benefit of both the gov
eminent and the farmers, who have long
been at the mercy of the fertilizer trust.
To prevent the vast enterprise from fall
ing into the hands of the power trust is
also consideration of large import. 1t
is said that bill in preparation by Sena-
tor Underwood and others trying to reach
as practical a solution of the problem as
possible under the circumstances calls
for notifications of the Norris bill, which
provides for government operation, but
carrying important amendments. Straight
out government operation is not only OBJ
jectionable to democratic senators, but
the country has been fed up, so to speak,
on that plan.
Completion of the Wilson dam, which
is scheduled for the next July, will en-
able the Shoals to produce immense guam
titles of power. 1t would be almost crimi
nal waste not to use that power in the
production of nitrates. There are posi-
bilities of other bids for the Shoals before
the completion of the Wilson dam, but
such possibilities are remote and time
for action is limited. Hence the impor-
lance of a definite program insuring
operation of the Shoals ere the engineers
complete their work. President Cool
idge's proposal for commission further
to study the Shoals would doubtless cause
more delay, and meantime immense power
would continue to be wasted, instead of
employed for the country's benefit. To
permit the Shoals plants to remain idle
would be further acknowledgement by
