When You Take
That Trip

You pack your bags, get your
ticket or gas the car, see that the
office and house doors are locked
and get aboard. But
WHERE WILL YOU Sleep
Do you always make your reser-
vations in advance? This is the
crowded season in all hotels. A
telephone message quickly settles
the point. You can't wait for a re-
ply to your wire but you specify ex-
actly what you want by telephone,
get your answer and start on the
trip with full assurance that you
will have comfortable night.
"A Standardization call will suf-
flee for this conversation. That
cuts the cost down by twenty per
cent.

GOAT BUTTS MONKEY
OFF THE j. S. MAP

TOPEKA, Kan, Aug. S.-A goat
horned into the fundamentalist's cur.
SADIE for temperance and public NOR
ais here today.
The fundamentalists went over the
top even as the cry of victory was
ringing in Tennessee.
A court granted the Kansas crusad,
ers' plea to make permanent an in
junction which prohibits the use in
public schools of a book which tells
about a humble bee singing q goat
and cat biting off a mouse's tail.
As a result, the children may not
be taught anything. The Winston
primer was adopted by the state COM
mission. but the printing has been held
up by the suit. Now they can't DC
produced in time for school.
The crusade against teaching "cruel-
ty" to children is led by Miss Eliza
beth Lorraine Wooster, who once tried
to stop school teachers from dancing.

DANCE HALL VISIT
SPELLS Her RUIN

SACRAMENTO, Aug. S.-If Mrs.
Bernice Aielo, 20 years of age, visits
public dance hall within the next
five years, she automatically will SEN
tence herself to two years confinement
in the county jail.
Mrs. Aiello was charged with con-
tributing to the delinquency of minor
before Judge Charles o. Busick. She
pleaded guilty to the charge.
In passing suspended sentence, the
court advised Mrs. Aiello to remain
at home with her 3-year-old child
and warned her not to communicate
in any way with the 17-ycar-old girl
whose alleged delinquency was re-
sponsible for Mrs. Aiello appearing
before him. She also must report
to the probation officer each month
and must not leave the county with
out his consent. Two years con-
tinement in the county Jail then was
suspended for five years, providing
Mrs. Aicllo remains away from pub
lie dance halls.

THE START-THE FINISH

On June 5, 1917 in Villas county
as in all other counties in the
United States, all the young men
between the ages Of q and 81 re-
qistered with the local draft board.
This board changed from time to
time during the war. It's person
mel consisted Of the following men:
q. H. Jackson, ?. G. Gafney,
Alex Higgins, Grant Cook, George
O'Connor, A. w. Thorpe, N. NJ.
Emmons and w. B. Raymond.
w. b. Raymond was the clerk of
the board till his death. After that
occurred his place was filed by N.
M. Emmons. This draft board was
only one Of lO4 in the state. During

the war these boards cost the gov
eminent $441,246.06, or an average
Of about $4,000 for each board I'm
der federal law the boards received
COMPENSATION if the members de-
sired. In our board all members
received pay except two, Alex Hig-
Gins and Geo. O'Connor. The total
cost Of the local draf5 board was
$1,7C4.03, much under what the av
erage cost Of the boards in
the state was. OF this sum $500
was members expenses and $685.
was employees salary. The major
ity OF the work Of the board fell
upon the shoulders of the clerk of
the board. The work Of the clerk
in this county was as near as l can
learn done by Fern Scott who was
also the executive member OF the
board. The county owes Miss Scott
rising vote of thanks for the
efficient and unbiased way in which
she handled the clerical work OF
this board. Although the cost OF
our board was much below the av-
erage, there were many boards IN
this part Of the state that were
much below us. For instance, the
draft board in Oneida county cost
S19.10; in Washburn county Sl6.l2,
while in Florence county there was
no expense at all for the board.
These figures are based on the re-
port of Major Fitzpatrick, the state
draft administrator One method
of paying the board was 81 a day;
another was 30 cents for each
QUESTIONABLE classified by the en-
tire board; the third way was for
the number of men indicted into
the service (this no doubt accounts
for the freaks that were sent to-
the army environments by some
draft boards) and after September
list, 1918, the boards could collect
a dollar an hour for their services.
On Registration day $40 young
men Of the draft age were regis
tered. This number included AZ
Indians from the Lac du Flambeau
reservation. Among the men who
registered at this time were some
Of the county's best scrappers.
Men like Fred Sailer, Thomas Nc
Gregor, Frank Heehn, Gustav He
deem, Erland Johnson, Christian
Wirth, Angus Mayo, Erie Johnson
were all found among the regis
trants. We will hear more of these
men later on. They with some
hundred and fifty other young fell
lows will eventually end up In the
Muese-Argonne.
Early in June there appeared a
spontaneous burst Of enlistlng.
Howard Olmstead and Claude Stew
ems started recruiting and the re-
suit was amazing. In a very short
time around thirty young fellows
were signed up. This bunch in
cluded William T. Rand who was
making his first attempt to enlist.
After several other attempts he
finally landed in the navy in time
to be mustered out at the end OF
! the war. John Foley, Mike Morri-
