NEED DRASTIC ACTION
Johnson, Noted Sport Writer
and Editor, Tells Why We
Are Becoming a Dumping
Ground.

c. F. Johnson, editor of the Land
O Lakes Bulletin, published most
every month at Amigo and which
all the time is a bully good booster
for Wisconsin and her recreational
assets, points out in many ways to
his numerous newspaper friends in
the state the damages now accru-
ing from too much politics in the
conservation methods of the state.
His letters, sent out to a number
of state papers, among which the
News was a recipient, tells his
views very convincingly. The fol-
lowing from the Amigo Journal
tells what he says in his letters and
the Journals comments on the stu
alton are to the point:
G.. f. Johnson, editor of the Land
O. Lakes Bulletin, who has been
making an extensive tour through
northwestern Wisconsin and a part
of Minnesota, in letter to The
Journal says he is thinking of
changing the name of his publica-
ton to Conservation, a Periodical
Of Protest.
So many examples of law viola
ton, carelessness, abuse of wild life
and forests" he writes, that it
makes a serious-minded conserva-
zionist red under the gills." Viola
tors from other states have been
passing the word along that the
going is easy in Wisconsin"
1t is easy to get venison, birds
and fish over here, they tell their
friends, and as a result violators
are coming into our state and do
ing great damage TO our wild life.
We want outsiders to come in; in
fact, we encourage them; but we do
not want those who come in and
cause the destruction of the very
things we are trying to maintain.
Mr.. johnson intimates that it is the
political situation at Madison,
wherein too many appointments in
the conservation department are
made without regard to qualifica-
tions. We have some good men, in
Guiding our Mr.. Mckenzie, who has
recently been promoted to a more
responsible position, but it is only
too true, as Mr.. Johnson says, that
too many appointments are made
for political reasons.
We hope that this situation may
be remedied and that our govern
ment will give more attention to
this department of it's activities.
The preservation our our wild life
will mean much to northern Wis
consin, and unless it is properly
guarded it will become extinct and
there will be no attraction for tour
lists, who have during the past sea-
son spent nearly hundred million
dollars in the state. The industry
is too big to permit it to be poll
tically manipulated"

Northern Flight Started.

With the flight of geese from the
northern feeding and breeding
grounds starting the latter part of
last week, the average duck hunt
er is having his sport in duck
shooting as the advance guard of
ducks are dropping down from the
north. Up at Lac Vieux Desert
lake the past few days has seen
good shooting of canvasback, red
heads and bluebills. The home
ducks have migrated farther south
of us, and for some days the past
week The duck hunters were not
getting any shooting to amount to
anything. Jonas Radcliffe and
Herb Bowker brought down nice
bag of ducks from Lac Vieux De
sert Sunday night, their bag con-
sisting of canvasbacks, bluebills
and redheads, fourteen in number
enough for any two hunters.

HAVE WE FORGOTTEN?

War.
Inls camp is a sort of a rest and "get we'll"
camp for the boys wounded or who lost their
health during the late unpleasantness and the
American Legion and Auxiliary posts are try
ing to care for their "buddies' who are virtu-
ally IN need Of assistance in more ways than
just health
Last Sunday some five cars carried Ameri-
can Legion and Auxiliary folks from the Villas
county chapters of the Legion over to the camp.
In each car were canned fruit vegetables and
reading matter for the inmates of the rehabil-
itation camp at Tomahawl Lake
And this is what they found
There were nine inmates in camp who had
their health shattered during the war, and they
really needed the friendship and attention of
not only the Legion members but more SO of
the public-we fellows, for that matter
every father mother, boy or girl in the state
and otherwise to give them things necessary
for their personal comfort and peace of mind
Barring a few newspapers lying on the
tables, there not a single book or maya
zine in camp for the disabled fellows to read
and pass the long hours in camp while they
were building up in health seems as though we
have all forgotten the fellows who shouldered
your burden and my burden when the war was
in session. Just think of these boys, some
with their families with them in camp and liv-
ing on the frugal allowance which they receive
from the government as a support to them
selves wives and children.
We, who Of an evening may gather around
pleasant fire and home comforts with pipe
and tobacco and books and magazines and
daily papers galore; we never think of the poor
fellows who simply sit around in a scantily fur
nished cabin or big bare lobby and have
nothing to take their minds off of their con-
ditions-no future to build toward, no happi-
ness which comes through the friendly contri-
buttons of those who shouted loud and long
when the boys went away with gun on their
shoulder to fight battles-and who now
have forgotten.
Fruit vegetables and literature in the
shape of daily papers, magazines and books,
would be method Of pulling these despond-
ent lads onto the highway of contentment and
possibly health The American Legion boys
and the Auxiliary women cannot do all the do
mating; they gave Of their man-power when
needed Now isn't it up to you and I to take
the burden from their shoulders?
Have we forgotten?
Books, games of all kinds and vegetables
AND FRIENDSHIP, are what the buddies at
this camp need NOW. Camp will close Deem
Der first until spring.
Let's make 'em happy by supplying right
now the above wants. Notify any member of
the Villas County chapters of Legion and Aux
iliary And do it today.

Kindergarten.

When a child reaches his fifth birth
day he is usually ready for kinder
sarten. Not that a few months ahead
or behind will make much difference,
but five years is a safe turning place.
His senses have verified his eye inn
pressions, and his hands can obey a
good part of his wishes. He Is reach
ing out for new conquests, and the
kindergarten offers them.
He has usually been much by him
self. If he has older brothers and sis
ters they have had to go to school
and leave him at home, and if he is
the only child or one with "a younger
brother or sister he is just as bad off
for playmates. And playmates are
essential to the healthy growth of a
child.
A grown-up person cannot live on
the child plane, and unless he meets
minds on his own level he is starving
mentally and spiritually. The kinder
garten fills this need. Here he finds
work and a group to help him carry
out what ideas he has. If he is a fol
lower he finds a leader, and if he is il
leader he readily finds followers.
But l don't want my child to go
TO kindergarten. 1t is only Il play
school. 1 want my child to start
school right away, and not get into
the habit of play and thus waste his
time"
That is the wrong notion entirely.
1t is the business, the duty of 5-year-
old children TO play. Any approach to
book work, any approach to organized
curriCula must I've through this play
way or it goes wrong and does mis-
thief. Remember. what Is play to YOU

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.
A Timely Hint.

Notice to Readers:
Every SO often it becomes neces-
sary to remind my readers that when
they want any one Of the leaflets this
department has to offer they may be
had only for a stamped envelope with
the full name and address of the
reader. afr too often this department
receives envelopes minus addresses
and plus stamps; envelopes minus
stamps and plus addresses, and very
often neither one nor the other, but
merely a request for the leaflet. Also
for the sake of those readers who are
tired of reading about ordinary feed
ing problems-it is better before ask
ing about the feeding or weaving Of
baby to find out If the leaflet won't
fully cover your needs.
Information of a strictly private
nature which is of interest to one per-
son only Is much better answered per-
Sonally as the space in the depart
ment Is so limited that it is selfish of
readers to want information which
cannot possibly benefit any one but
themselves. Under this head comes
information about confinements and
all questions of a decidedly intimate
nature, which not only embarrass
this editor sometimes, but readers as

Boats for Bathtub Navy.

Among the Christmas toys which
fascinate old and young alike are the
metal boats which sail up and down
so realistically in tanks. It's almost
as difficult for you to make a choice as
it is for son. All the boats look so
attractive that every one tempts a
purchase.
Before the war mechanical boats
were made chiefly in Germany, but
now domestic manufacturers are com
peting. The boats Of both makes are
beautifully made of steel with paint
and enamel hulls. The domestic boats
have removable clockwork device
which makes them somewhat prefer
able to the imported product. 1t can
be repaired, thus insuring longer life
to the toy.
You will find that almost all OF the
boats are run by clockwork, which If
installed in the body of the boat, Some
times in a watertight place. The
spring is wound up with a key. and
when the propeller is released II 70
tates and sends the ship forward. Some
boats are made with governor with
which you can regulate the speed
Toy submarines haven't this governor,
and they dive up and down with great
speed
The average length of these boats
is from 8 to IA inches and they include
in types, ocean liners. merchant ships,
destroyers, diving submarines, motor
boats, tugboats and others.
When you buy boat 1t is we'll TO
make certain that it is made so that
the clockwork can be kept perfectly
dry. If the interior gets wet, remove
the clockwork. and don't replace it
until the boat is dry again. Rust will
render the clockwork ineffective. It's
well to oil the propeller shaft so that II
will move smoothly and be free from
rust. The boat should be painted on
enamel with Il hard finish which can
be wiped dry with cloth.
If the top of the boat is removable
it is easier to have it repaired. If the
mechanism isn't complicated it can
probably be repaired at a general re-
pair shop. Often boats that are well
made outlive their first paint. This

Clues to Character
BY J. o. ABERNETHY.
Reasoners.

Nhen you meet person who has
a high, broad nose, you may be sure
that ne Is reasoner. He has ability
Tor logical argument. He has wei
developed and orderly mind This kind
OF nose is mark of progressive
.nousht, OF morality and an apprecia
uon OF truth and ideals.
In all great judicial minds YOU will
ind marked breadth at the ridge of
the nose. They will have large noses
ana well formed. The breadth of the
nose at the center of the bridge is a
sign OF strong stomach, of good di-
geStlve powers.
Consideration of great and broad
subjects involves tremendous mental
EFFORT. Hence you will find that great
Jurlsts and logicians are hearty eaters
ana nave large bodies and often are
rotund. 1t is too much to expect a
sickly, big-headed, thin-bodied man to
meet the requirements of a great
1urlst' statesman, logician, scientist or
astronomer.
