The Iron River ball team was
easy for Hurley last Sunday and the
locals romped away with a 8 to
victory
The visitors prevented a shut-out
by getting a man around in the
ninth inning Two had been retired
and with a man on third the next up
sent out a grounder to Melvin. 1t
looked like an easy out but Melvin
made bungle out Of it and the
runner was safe at first.
Iron River could do nothing with
Hoeft's twisters and Lefty" let
the visitors down with but three safe
ones. Russell for the visitors had
lots Of stuff on the ball but was shy
on control He passed three men
in the first inning, with the result
that Hurley scored in their first
time up.
Leo Pufall, playing second base
for Hurley, got the one home run of
the game Melvin had big day with
the stick, getting four hits in as
many trips to the plate.

We're All Included.

An amendment to the state con-
stitution to give Wisconsin power to
embark on a real forestry program
viii be before the voters in Novem-
Der. We say offhand that it is a
good thing for Wisconsin and let it
90 at that. But if it is a good thing,
for whom is it good? Let's analyze
a bit
First, perhaps. comes the man who
wants to buy lumber whether he be
the builder Of home or manufac-
turer using thousands of board feet
makes little difference He wants
lumber He can get it., Of course,
from the northwest, while that sup
ply lasts. But lumber plus freight
rates from the Pacific is expensive
The cheapest lumber for Wisconsin
is our own product, Since we are
all users Of lumber that amendment
affects pretty nearly everyone from
the utility side alone
Next, probably come those who
are engaged in the tourist business.
Our recreation must be largely for
est product Without the woods
and the streams and the lakes our
state will be without its appeal We
might cut down the trees and still
have Che lakes and rivers But
denuded lake shores and stream
banks have little recreational value.
Somehow it all comes back to a
question Of trees.
Then there is the states agricul-
turc, with the certainly that tree
less land will bring undesirable
changes in climate The trees are
necessary for stream preservation,
sufficient rainfall and soil stability.
Last, but not the least important,
comes the parent who cares about
the training of his child and what the
heritage Of that child shall be For
the training Of the boy we need the
Influence OF the out Of doors. Boy
Scout leaders recognize that and
every parent must recognize it when
he thinks Ne greater force exists
for the development of character,
endurance and clean living than
contact with nature
Well then we are all pretty much
included. And we must see the
necessity of supporting this amend

A LITTLE TALK ON THRIFT
By S. ". STRAUS
resident Of American Society for Thrift

The good use of money and
material possessions does not by any
means constitute all there is to
thrift.
Physical conservation - health
Thrills just as important.
There is always a great temptation
for those who are naturally energetic
and ambitious to overdue. We read
recently of one of Americas out
standing public men who boasts that
he works almost continually, except
ing for about four hours sleep at
night
While we can not help but admire
man who can make of himself such
driving force, we know that
sooner or later nature viii refuse to
be abused. Collapse viii come. The
mans usefulness will, perhaps, be
over years before such an event
would have occurred with the
observance of temperate habits.
The nations loss through the
illness of its citizens IS prodigious.
For example, we are told that the
100000 gainfully employed men
and women of the United States lose
the labor of 100000 workers each
year from sickness-a loss equival-
ent to 300,000,000 working days
annually. In other words, the
time lost every.year to the nation,
through the sickness of its workers,
is three times greater than all the
working days gained annually
through immigration.
These millions of days Of labor
lost through sickness are in addition
to 22700O,OO0 working days which
the United States Department of
Labor estimates are lost annually
through industrial accidents.
1t is impossible to check the
dollars lost in wages annually
through sickness Of workers, but
inasmuch as the wage loss from
industrial accidents exceeds $1,000
| 100000 the financial loss from
sickness must be far in excess of
that sum.
| When you think of thrift, think in
terms of health as we'll as wealth.
Much ill-health is the result OF
carelessness Guard the reservoir
of your physical strength as you
would your home or your life's
savings.
There can be no real thrift that
does not include care of the health

Round my wigwam l go trot-

doctors, skilled, and nurses try their
best to make us fit. undertakers with
their hearses oft across the land
scape fit. Why will men with
strident clamor boost some PROPOSE
ton punk that deserves the Knockers

when trillion flies are humming
from their pestilential bed with our
frames TO do some Strummning

BY Uncle bud.
Uncle bud Says: "We're not
kicking on the bobbed hair PROPOSE
ton but some of the fair ones
evidently forget to wash their necks.
Some people cannot stand prosperity
but the majority never have the
opportunity.
1t takes more than white lies to
cover dark deeds.
When you try to stop an argu-
ment you generally start about
dozen more.
It took 1913 ballots to nominate
Davis But it will take lots more
than that to elect him.
Lots of self-made men look as
though somebody had mixed up
the plans and specifications.
The barber must know his gro
ceries these days. There are just
387 different styles of hobs.
As usual a lot of June graduates
are willing to accept a position
when they should be out chasing a
job.
Taxes are not so sure after all
AS may be noted by glance over
the delinquent tax list of any
county.
Brevity may be the soul of wit
but in the case of bathing cos
tune the censor may not see it
that way.
Pull may be mighty handy thing
to have-but it isn't what you
need when the call of the lawn
mower is heard.
No man can qualify as a full
Pledged American citizen until he
has worked himself into such a rage
that he wants to kill the umpire.
Lots of politicians spout about
the Declaration of independence
who couldn't repeat the first two
lines to save their immortal souls.
Lots of married men are strong
ly in favor of bobbed hair because
there are never any tell-tale long
hairs on the coat to cause troub. e
at home.
Answering a query as to which
is the sweetest death, your uncle
would suggest that being killed by
kindness ought to score rather
high.
When a fellow can remember
how he used to crawl under a
feather tick during an electrical
storm, he may be safely classed as
an old-timer.
Scientists tell us that the fat man
is cooler on hot day than the man
Of emaciated figure. This being
true, it is just another proof of
the old adage that appearances are
deceitful
This is open season on the bashful
birds It's leap year, you know.
But un-to-date the weddings have
not kept pace with those of last
year Come on girls, do your
stuff.
Smith had only been married a
short time when his wife's mother
came to make her home with him.
Just what to call her rather puzzled
him. Finally he sought advice
from a married friend who had the
same conditions with which to con-
tend. He propounded his query and
his friend answered; Well, | called
her Say for about year and then
started calling her Grandma "

The total number Of Registrations
for the entire year 1928 was 465,-
300. That is 20,513 more licenses
were issued the first six months of
1924 than during the twelve months
of 1928.
Heretofore this apportionment was
not made until much later, but
owing to a new system of book
keeping that Mr.. Zimmerman in
stalled last year, after the passage of
the new law, the apportionment is
ready as soon as the year closes and
the books are closed.
The apportionment in Iron county
amounts to $3,57L24.

32 GOLFERS WILL
 BE LEFT TODAY
6S Regional Stars Will Be Cut
 Down in Today's Play
By The Associated Press.


 French Licks Ind. Sept, 15.---The two 1S-hole elimination rounds of the national professional golf cham pionship at French Lick toiay will reduce the 6S regional qualihers to s2 expert golfers, who are. to play 36 hole matches daily until the final rounds on Saturday decide who shall take the crown now worn by Gene Sarazen, of New York. While some scores in practice have been better than any returned by Sara zen, many predict that he will take the title back to the east himself.
 Sarazen shot a 75 yesterday, play ing in aSfoursome with Jock Hutch- ison, Of Chicago. former British champion; Leo Dlegel, of Washing ton, Canadian and Illinois open champion and John Farrell, of New York.
 Diegel, shooting 69 and Hutchi- son scoring par 72 defeated the other two, 3 and 2, Farrell carding Fl.
 The large gallery that followed this quartet saw some excellent golf, especially Hutchlson's irons and Diegel's putting. The players were sent off In threes today for the first time in order to furnish a double check on scores without the necessity of sending an official scorer with the players.
 While Al Watrous, of Grand Rapids, has returned an unofficial record of 31-s3-64. for the 6,471 yard links and William Greavy. of Oklahoma City, has reported round in 67 besides Diegel's ,69 and a card of 6S by Jack Forester, of New York, it is predicted by ex- perts that few if any will break 70 during the actual championship play.
 The course is in splendid condi- ton, except for the fairways, which are a trifie fast for balls that hit the side hills. The greens are soft enough to hold pitch shots well and are true to touch, although their undulations and slopes compel the players to exert skill and csse.
