To the Voters of Villas County:
I am candidate for reelection
to the office Of County Judge, to be
voted for on the non-partisan judi

The Christian Year.

1t may be news to such persons
that Lent is not merely a certain
religious period inserted into a year
otherwise unmarked reIigiously ex-
cept by Sunday, but merely one of
a number of seasons into which
the whole year is divided, and not
necessarily more significant than
any Of the others.
The Christian year is so arranged
that it serves both as a reminder
of the events in the life of Christ
and a commemoration of them and,
at the same time, gives opportunity
for an orderly exercise of religious
virtues and practices.
The Lenten season is a comment
Grafton of the 40 days of Christ's
fasting and Of the period of perse-
cution which ended in His cruel
fixion. 1t is an appropriate season,
accordingly, for mediation, fasting,
repentance and prayer.
There are critics of this system
y
who would say that one mans need
for meditation, repentance, prayer
and fasting, supposing that he ever
has need for the latter, do not
coincide with the needs of another,
and that fitting them into an arbi-
trary calendar tends to emphasize
form at the expense of spirit.
A little consideration will show,
however, that the Christian year
falls in very accurately with the
nature and requirements of man
kind. Man is a creature of habits
who gets along most effectively
when his life is pretty well
arranged according to some sort Of
pattern. He finds it best to eat at
certain fixed hours every day. He
does his best work when he has
fixed hours for working and all his
secular life is arranged in accord
ance with the hours Of the day and
the seasons Of the calendar.
There IS good reason to suppose
that similar arrangement of his
spiritual or religious life is also
beneficial. Just as the clock and
the calendar on the office wall call
attention to things which need do
ing, so the calendar of the Christ
ian year calls attention to spiritual
and religious things.
Lent is the season of fasting and
of meditation, and whether the
fasting be of the flesh or of the
spirit or both, those who have stud
led man most deeply agree that
these exercises are beneficial and
desirable for him. Who doubts
that if this Lent were strictly kept
by our young people, our politi-
clans, our businessmen, our en-
ployers, our employees, our people
in general, that Easter Day would
find a marked Improvement in our
world and that many of those
things concerning which we now
cry out in alarm would have dis
appeared? Superior Telegram.

PRESIDENT SUPERVISOR

PRESIDENT SUPERVISOR.
To the Voters Of the Village of
Eagle River:
| have been asked by a prominent
man of Eagle River to state my
position on the question of paving
some four or five of the main bust
ness blocks of the village. There
is no person in Eagle River who
wants to see the village grow and
prosper and look better than my
self, but as | have stated, I am not
in favor, at this time, of running
the town farther IN debt and piling
more taxes upon the people unless
absolutely necessary. I thought the
paving of the streets was a per-
sonal matter to the adjacent prop
erty holders and county and state
highway system. So it IS, with the
exception of the cross streets,
which must be taken care of by
the village and would amount to a
considerable sum. IF the village
has any money to spare, and /
have been told by the present
officers that it took every cent that
could be raised to meet bonded in
debtedness and necessary expenses,
/ think that the village streets
should be repaired and made pass
able, which today they are not, in

WILL SAVE CEDAR TREE
MORE THAN D. 300 YEARS OLD
ST 800 Raised by Subscription. Given
To the State.

The oldest tree in the state OF Wash
ington has just been rescued. 1t is a
great cedar tree below Mount Tene-
rice a few miles from North Bend,
and it has been saved from the wood
mans axe through the efforts of the
Washington National Park Associa-
ton, according to the New York
Times.
The giant tree is 200 feet high, has
a diameter of 1873 feet and circum-
ference of $50 feet yard above the
ground, and is approximately $500
years of age. Its age is not known
precisely, but it has been so estimated
because a nearby stump of almost the
same dimensions had $500 rings.
The tree has survived three COM
plete generations of forest growth, &C
cording to forestry experts who have
examined the locality. 1t shows no
signs of having yet arrived at old
age. Purchase of the tree was made
possible by public subscription, Sl,0O0
having been raised for the purchase OF
the plot containing this tree and eigh-
teen ott1r large cedars. The plot mas
been given to the state and will be
incorporated in the park system.

NEGROES RETURNING
TO THE SOUTH AGAIN
MIGRATION TO THE NORTH
DECREASING, REPORT TO
CONFERENCE SHOWS.

MACON, Ga,-Migration among
the negroes of the south to the north
decreased considerably during the last
year and many Of the negroes, who
previously had gone to northern cities
have returned, statistics read yester-
day at the forty-fourth annual session
of the Macon conference of the Afri-
can Episcopal church show
The returning negroes are settling
down to a new economic existence
the reports show. They have learned
that wonderful opportunities offered in
the north are partly mythical, and
have come to realize that farming still
is one of the best occupations for
them.
The return of the migrating negroes
also has helped to swell the finance
of the church. The revenue has in
creased considerable in the last yea1
and many debts have been paid.

SOUTHWARK TREND
OF OLD HOBO TYPE
ANNUAL MIGRATION TO LAND
OF SUNNY SKIES NOW ON.
VICISSITUDES MANY.

The old-type hobo may be motor
izing himself into a "fivver bo," but
indications in the southeast are that
the veteran railbird is yet extant and
at this time has commenced his sea
sonal peregrinations southwark.
Already the great tattered vanguard
is on its way. The mode of transport
tation is somewhat varied = some
clinging to merits of the rods and
blinds OF the fast limited, while the
majority content themselves with the
old 'side-door pullman" b e t t +
known as the box car.
Southwark Trend Heavy.
From the way stations near and far
come reports of heavy southwark
trend OF tramps and from all direc-
tons. This year seems to find an un-
usual proportion of them with the
Florida fever.
Starting in August from the far
northwest, for instance, Weary Willie
soon attaches boon buddy, and be-
fore the change is made in Chicago
there is a clan of several score in a
single box car. By the time the itin-
Grants reach the far south they have
become almost a legion.
Vicissitudes may intervene, how
ever, in which eventuality the small
town is faced with the problem of
housing a number excessively beyond
the foresight of the planners of its
calaboose or little Jail. In this case
the unwelcome are usually escorted to
the towns limits and thus put to the
irksome trouble of hopping the next
| freight.
Type Widely Dissimilar.
Being of a heterogeneous nature
and type. the object of these perennial
migratories is widely dissimilar. There
is the bad egg" type, as he is referred
to by his fellow-travelers. This type
hip gats" and has police records and
many are wanted by the authorities
and not infrequently are detained en-
route mostly without gun play, for it
is curious experience that the hard
guy" who will scold a uniform on the
East Side in New York usually for
gets he has hip pocket when yank-
ed from the rods by a lanky "hick'
chief of police in Tanktown, n. {.
Then there is the contrast-the
youngster making his first trip and
just beginning to dolefully doubt he
will ever break the envious record OF
the famous "AzNo. l."
Genuine Vagabond Persists.
There is the card and pool shark,
with or without his roll" secreted III
his underc1othes. Also the boy who's
going to make his killing bringing it
over from Bermuda. There is the 9th
err type who will confne his alcoholic
endeavors to personal consumption.
Others will work the old con game.
But the most harmless and truest
to the old-type species is the genuine
vagabond, who only answers the call
of the wanderust, in many cases the
plain hometown boy who is out to
see what he can see.
