FATE OF THE FIFTY-F0UR;
CAMPAIGN FOR PROSPERITY

1t was a Wisconsin farm boy,
seeking theme for an artistic tai
ent, who modelled the statue, "Thc
Fate of the Fifty-four, that now is
attracting such wide attention.
Frederick Humphrey was like
many another boy who has grown up
in an environment i'll suited to his ma
ture. While he guided the pillow, he
| dreamed of a time when he could
| be an artist and use his own art to
move men.
From the top row of Minneapolis
| theatre one night, so it happened,
! he saw Sarah Bernhard. That pro-
| vided the needed inspiration to
| crystalline his dream into action.
The next day 'he went out and en-
rolled in the Minneapolis School of
Art. He tended furnaces and
shovelled snow, and every moment
that he could steal away from his
| work he devoted to his art. Then
he went to Paris to complete his
studies.
Coming back to America, Humph-
rey read one day some figures pre-
pared by the American Bankers AS
ISOLATION. Of each one hundred men
who start out in the business world,
he read, SO will be dead when the
group Of survivors reach IS. And
of the survivors:
will be wealthy
3 will be we'll to do
6 will be self-supporting
81 will be wholly or partially de-
pendent.
Humphrey sensed at once the
significance of those figures. If
only he could make men see the
tragedy buried in that prophetic
table. There was theme for an
artist. If he could put the story into
a human image, he thought, men
might stop and think. He thought
about that long time. Then one
day he turned to his clay.
Under his hand the figures, cold
and lifeless in the form of mere
statistics, became a vivid human
story of life that the average man
can understand. Visitors who hap

will be switched over in Milwaukee
where it can be used on the second
night by those taking the trip. This
will do away with reserving any
rooms at hotels. The charge for
round trip ticket including rail
transportation and sleeper for 8 days
for each person will be $20.85. We
hope that we can get number of
people to take advantage of this.
Please let me know soon if you plan
to take this trip. Further informa-
ton will be given later in the papers.
Clarence Muhlhausen Of Prescott
and Gertrude Mumford of Ellsworth
will represent the Boys and Girls
Club Work at the State Fair at Mil
waukee this week. Their entire ex
penses will be paid by the State, as
the boy will do ushering in the
grand stand every afternoon and
the girl will help in the Camp. They
will enjoy all the privileges of camp
life with other boys and girls from
all over the state during the week,
and will have the privilege of seeing
one of the best State Fairs in the
Northwest. These are only few of
the privileges open to boys and girls
who take up Club Work.
Work has already begun on the
frame work of the Boys and Girls
Educational Building on the Fair
Grounds which will be finished in
plenty of time for the annual county
fair. Sept. 18th is Boys and Girls
Day and plans are being made for
one of the biggest days ever held at
Pierce County Fair.
If you want to have a complete
soil analysis made of your farm this
fall it will be necessary for you to
let me know not later than Oct. 1st as
the work will be done soon after
that time. 1t will cost you $500 for
the first 80 acres and $1.00 for each
additional 40 acres. This work gives
you a complete soils report on the
fertility of your farm.
If you are bee keeper and have
some honey to sell you should be-

Quartet; Ventriloquist.
Had very good time at this
Banquet.
After the program was over we
got a banner for Wisconsin at the
International Livestock Exposition
Building and marched around the
show ring in the stock barn.
Wednesday morning we had cpr
breakfast at 1884. We went to the
Field Museum and saw the mounted
animals, birds, rocks, fish, and ether
things. From here we went to the
Art Museum and saw pictures that
were painted by painters from all
over the world. After going through
this we went to Seals Roebuck &
Co. plant. Here We saw them make
wall paper and wind it up. Then we
went to another building and gave
some yells, and listened to some solos.
Had our dinner at about 2;25 p, NJ.
Left at $40 p. m. and went to hear
the Chicago Symphony Orchestra
play. This orchestra is one of the
best in the United States.
We had our supper at Fort Dear
born Hotel and did not go out that
night.
Thursday we left the hotel at about
500 q. m. We took the street car
and went to the International Har
vester Co.'s Plant. Here we saw a
binder made in 1S47 and one made in
1923. There was as much difference
between these two binders as there
was between Henry Ford's first car
and the latest model. We watched
them melt iron and pour it into
molds. From here we went to where
they finished off the castings and then
watched them set tractorst together.
After that we went to dining
hall and got our dinner. We listen
ed to several speakers, one of them
was Cyrus Hall Mccormick, who
gave a very interesting talk on his
childhood.
Next we went to Lincoln Park and
Zoo where we saw buffaloes, bears
| deer, camels, bison, raccoons, wolves,
coyotes, ducks and chickens, and
some tame gray squirrels. After 60
ing through the park we went to a
banquet given by the Northwestern
Railroad Company, Here the medals
| for the different contests were
awarded. Wisconsin won the Lamb
Trophy, which was a large silver
cup, Edith Clark being the winner.
AS this banquet was a farewell
Banquet we all said goodbye to our
friends from different states.
