Pound, U.s., Sets Pace

A unique example of the results
of municipal cooperation is to be
found in the village of Pound,
which, with it's 200 inhabitants,
has hidden itself away in the wild
erness of northeastern Wisconsin.
At the end of a summer and au-
tumn season of six months of ex-
pertinent the villagers are laying
plans for winter program which
may well be watched by American
cities many times more populous
and wealthy.
Late last April, while the heavy
SHOWS were still lingering on the
highways, business men of the
village began laying plans to slim
ulate trade during the summer
months and to advertise their vii
lage as market place.
A free community motion pic
ture show once a week, on We'd
nesday nights, was decided ON as
a sufficient lodestone to draw resi-
dents of the surrounding country
into the village. The results were
more startling than even the most
sanguine had hoped for. Twenty
weekly shows were held with an
average of more than 1000 per-
sons in attendance each night.
With 400 to 500 automobiles
parked in the village each We'd
nesday night the village authori-
ties were presented with traffic
problem commensurate with those
of Milwaukee or Chicago, consid-
ering the size and population of
the village. So efficiently did the
business men handle the situation,
however, that not single accident
was marked up against the village
celebrations.
The cost of the twenty shows
put on by the villagers was ap.
proximately $500, exclusive of the
motion picture machine and oper-
ator. The use of the machine,

Thinks Farmer Around Corner.

Agriculture has turned the cor
ner and better times are ahead
Ten years from now farmers will
be in better financial condition
than if they had not met the per-
iod of depression through which
they have passed.
This is the opinion of D. H.
Grady, widely known Portage
farmer. He believes that Wiscon-
sin farmers have weathered the
storm better than those of any
other state and that they now
have the best opportunity to reach
new levels of prosperity. Construc-
tive plans to take advantage of
the opportunities are the next
need, he says.
From now on it is up to the
individual" Mr.. Grady explains.
Each has his own farm with its
peculiar needs and possibilities.
Different farms need to be devel-
oped along the lines for which
they are especially adapted. .

Wisconsin Must Lead.

The head of the state board of
control DR.. Lorenz, indicated the
new view which this body is tax
ing In announcing, before a meet
ing of the Wisconsin Anti-Tuber-
culosis association, that the state
would support the Tomahawk lake
health camp and the Wales sana-
forum, or Statesan, as it has not
yet done. This support will be
given, he added significantly, with
out anybody's political ideas or
political fortunes.
Also, DR.. Lorenz pointed out, the
progress made in conuuering
tuberculosis in Wisconsin has
ben through the efforts of those
willing to give their time to such
a movement as the Wisconsin An
Tuberculosis association and not
through state leadership.
This private effort has done the
pioneering. But the time has now
come when the state can no longer
excuse itself by erecting a few
buildings where patients may be
sent. 1t must take the leadership
IN carrying the campaign against
tuberculosis, mental diseases and
other ailments that produce hu-
man waste.
Up at Tomahawk lake is a camp
which has produced wonderful re-
suits with scarcely any support.
It's mission is to take patients
when they leave the sanatoria and
build them up so that they will be
ready to re-enter industry. OF
those who have been sent to it, 60
per cent have been returned to the
state as fully efficient, 30 per cent
as three-fourths efficient and only
10 per cent have had to go back
to institutions. This is saving
manhood and womanhood for Wis
consin.
But until the present board
went into the situation, money Tor
this camp lay in the state treas
ury while the camps work was
handicapped. And the infrmary
at Wales was not built, although
the funds were available. These
are instances of the way the state
institutions have been neglected in
the political scramble.
Now the state board of control
says, No more OF that" and it
further sounds the slogan, For
ward These are welcome words
to everyone who believes that the
states social program lies primar-
lily not in relief but in reconstruc-
tion.-Milwaukee Journal.
