MAJOR WILLIAMS AHEAD OF HIS TIME

When Major c. Fl. Williams was among the living in
Baraboo and he has been dead years. he spoke earn
esty for method of sewage dsposanot to pour 1T
streams and lakes There is agitation all the Unit
ed States for step be taken to keep pure as pos
be all ard natural bodies of water The agitation
only in Wisconsin but in many states OF the Union
Long ago Madison learned that the city could not con-
tainate Lake Monona. Milwaukee had to provide plant
in order to prevent polutng Lake Michigan and now Chi
cago is taking steps to solve a similar problem
At Springfield Massachusetts, there is proposition to
pipe the sewage of that city considerable distance into
Long Island Sound This is opposed No doubt the upsho
will be that Springfield will build disposal plant.
Many cities in this state facing like problem in Or
der to keep clean the and lakes Wisconsin for
having many beautiful currents and bodies OF wa
ter and these should be kept nature would have them
Science has learned how to treat wastes from industrial
plants and refuse from city before being emptled into
current Such is benefit to all concerned. Cities
may hesitate at the Of building and operating
disposal plant but they are in operation the problem
not so difficult after all When the lakes and streams have
once been made as white found them the wonder will
be that they should have been polluted.
If Major Williams alive he would be most active in
the present movement.

bridges will be removed and concrete structures will

the life of the late Victor F. Lawson long editor of The Chi

The foregoing startling statement is by S. S. Mcclure in
the issue Of cClure's magazine The writer adds
this record of murder such is known in civilized
country is the dearest indication OF the essential weakness
of national, state and city governments
Unless our government is recognized until it resem

the United States cannot be reduced to the proportions

Many reasons have been given why fail, either in
business profession trade. Here is statement from
Harvey Firestone which is worth considering:
Zone reason why many fall is because they have no

their efforts toward attaining it, The minute man finds
himself running around in circle and not getting
