nEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
- For an afternoon churcI

proper for the young men to-
wear dark business suits?
Q. After an afternoon wedding

the other is formal dress clothes,
for an evening wedding. Any
thing else Is a. Substitute"

Soil Meet At
North Freedom,

About So farmers living in Free
dom township gathered at the
NJ. w. A. hall in North Freedom,
Wednesday night, October 18th, to
learn about the Sank County Soil
Survey and the Soil Improvement
program that is to be carried out
in the county during the next few
years
One thing occurred at this meet
ing which was very peasant sur
prise because it was a little diff
ferent from the other township
meetings which have ben held in
the county up-tO-date. The prin-
cipal of the North Freedom schools
was kind enough to arrange to
have the Girls Glee club of the
high school render two selections
which were enjoyed very much by
those present.
The farmers were very much in
terested in the discussions of the
evening and all present promised
to boost and help advertise the one
day soil fertility schools which
will ~be held during the month of
November ior December. Ut is
hoped to have a larger percent
age of Freedom township farmers
at this meeting.

death occurred in Sault Sainte MAJ
lie, Mich, last Friday and she was
buried in Madison on Tuesday.
Mrs. Darnstaedtwa born in Bar

ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Fred w. Kopp-
Ike. She attended the Baraboo
schools and then her parents NOV
ing to Madison she entered the
University of Wisconsin, where she
was most successful in scholastics
graduating in 1921,
Her marriage took place a year

and Mrs. Darnstaedt resided IN

Vote For Constitution
al Amendment

Upon the ballot to be voted this
fall is an amendment to our con-
stitution. This amendment pro-
vides that all counties having
over $4,000 Inhabitants may have
two circuit judges. Since Dane
county is the only county outside
of Milwaukee that has $4,000 in
habitants this amendment effects
Sank county and Dane county only.
These counties constitute the
Ninth Judicial Circuit of Wiscon-
sin. Judge Stevens, who is the
Judge of the Ninth Circuit, has
been kept busy at Madison trying
state commission cases and also
doing some Of the other circuit
court work, but by reason of this
work he has mott been able to look
after the work of our Circuit court
and we have had to rely upon
judges from other circuits. This
has been very unsatisfactory and
this constitutional amendment af-
fects Sank county more perhaps
than any\other county in the state.
If this constitutional amendment is
passed then the Ninth Judicial
circuit can have two judges, and
if we get two judges one of these
Judges will take care Of the cir
cult court work for Sank county,
and since this is a very desirable
method to get relief from the de-
lay and annoyance caused by the
fact that Judge Stevens can not
be here to take care of our Cir
cult court work every voter in
Sank county should vote for this
constitutional amendment.

Bittriich Land
Worth 1888,
Court Rules

Judge ]. H. Hill has decided q
strip Of land across the Henry
Bittrich place, from the Hazeltine
corner to the Spencer barn, is
worth 1888. The highway com
mittee offered Mr.. Bittrich $1,000
for the 3.S2 acres and Mr.. Bittrich
wanted something like $4,000. When
graded and surfaced this strip
will become part of state trunk
highway II.
The road will extend diagonally
in a westerly and north"
easterly direction and for that
reason is of considerable damage
to the rest of the land. The work
of grading Sumpter hill and the
strip across 'the Bittrich place
will be completed this fall, wealth

new DAMAT
REEDSDURG IS
Being BUILT
Work Involves Con
sumption of Over
400 Sacks of Cement
Two Cars of Gravel


Work on the construction of the
Appleton Wooden Mill new dam
across the Baraboo river at Reeds
burg is progressing rapidly at pres
eIa and the location presents a
busy scene. This week the con-
crete work for the east section of
the dam, comprising the wheel pits
and the power house is being run.
This work involves the consump-
ton of over 400 sacks of cement, 2
car of gravel and a carload of sand,
all of which is going into the con-
struction of the units named above.
This will constitute the largest run
of concrete TO be made during the
course of the construction work
The steel superstructure for the
gates has been installed and all
preliminary work to actual con-
struction of the east section Of the
dam has been finished. The darn
will carry ten-foot head and is
expected to develop 1876 horsepowef.
This will be utilized through the
medium of two vacuum type tur-
bines with generators attached, the
very latest achievement in hydraI-
lie engineering. One of these tur-
bines, or wheels, will consume 185
horsepower. The remaining en-
ergy will be consumed by the other
turbine, which will be of a smaller
type, though large enough to meet
the requirements that will be placed
upon it.
