Beware Monoxide Gas CC1CNCL am! civilization luvc rude great striilcs in arresting m.inv of the diseases uracil 'threaten human life.

Typhoid, yellow fever, and small pox have been practically wiped out while there has been a tremendous reduction in the number of deaths due to tubcrcu which cancel the great advances made in medicine and the conservation human life. Civilization has brought the mad in the name of progress which has been productive of heart ailments, apoplexy, and nervous disorders. A nation of lunch grabbers is becoming a race of dyspeptics and malnutri Saturday Madison had a sad example of the liability side of the picture. A mother leaves her baby cooing in an automobile and when she returns the child is found dead. Monoxide gas, the accompaniment of the automobile, is a new enemy of hum in life the result of the motor age.

In recent years thousands of lives have been lost in the country because of this insidious gas. Education and publicity arc the best weapons for lighting this new deadly invader. Too many people ride in their closed automobiles with all of the windows tightly closed. Hundreds of people arc careless in loitering about garages filled with monoxide gas. Remember the term monoxide gas, Mr.

Auto Owner and beware of the fumes which emanate from automobiles. You mav thereby avert a sad tragedy. The Mellon Spokesmen For The Wisconsin Farmers LAST WEEK, in the editorial on the Coolidgc veto of the Mcary II.vugcn farm relief bill, we told of the big propaganda organization which monopoly has set up for its own defense and how this huge organization would seek to minimize the atraclc which would be made upon the 1'resident for this veto. On the dav following the Coolidgc veto there appeared on the first page of The Merrill Daily Herald a storv with the heading: 'Turners of Wisconsin Arc Elated." Reading into the article we find that the basis for "the contention Wisconsin farmers were elated over the presidential veto were statements made bv J. N.

Tittcmore, referred to and I th, nublisher of the Aizricultor. Tittcmore and ucllcmann are quoted as saying that the farmers of Wisconsin were against the McNary Il.it.gcn bill four to one and that they overwhelmingly sustained the Coolidgc veto. I'erhaps' the fiction that Tittcmore and Fucllcmann speak for the farmers of Wisconsin can be put over the gullible East but their assertion will bring a smile to those who arc ticularly amusing when the fact is revived that both Tittcmore and Eucllcrnann have been on the Mcllon Vits Eontaine political payroll in seeking to turn this state over to the control of the Mellon crowd.

Toe i THE MASON RESIGNATION The resignation of Max Mason as president of the University of Chicago was certainly far from expected. With respect to scholarship, the universitj is unexcelled by any in the country. The presidenej of the university is an office of exceptional prestige and of. wide possibilities for creative work. Earlier to a elm, the leading wood for this purpose.

As a veneer wood It leads all others In quantity. Red gum Is frequently called "sweet gum," the name originating doubtless from the sweetish gummy substance obtained from the tree. This gum is much In demand by the manufacturers of perfumes, tobacco, adhesives, and pharmaceutical preparations. Its properties and composition are similar to those of oriental storax, obtained from a tree, which grows in Asia Minor. The range of red gum is from southwestern Connecticut westward to Kansas and southward to Florida and Texas.

The commercial range is largely confined to the moist la: nhln and MississinDi basins and lowlands the southeastern coast. Hed gum grows to a large size. Average half No, Says Catton p. Cation pointing taul's a time when our literature our books, our magazines and our newspapers was so filled with articles discussing out defects and our shortcomings. If a man can grow rich by giving us mental soothing sirup, so can a Sinclair Lewis grow rich by furiously attacking our most revered institutions.

H. L. Mencken has spent his life assailing the very class that the magazine writer believes stifles free discussion; and he is eminently plump and well fed. Indeed, one of the surest ways to success in the literary world today is the pathway of criticism. If you can make a fortune by writing "honesty is the best policy," you can also make one by writing "America is a land of sap heads." Never did the critic, the satirist, the artist, the Iconoclast, have so wide an audience in this country as today.

The child may be placed inside its play fence or upon a quilt placed upon the floor; the toys distributed about hi its vicinity. It will crawl for the things it wants to reach, thus aiding its development while it Is being entertained. A two year old child should not be playing with rattle, but begin beating a tin pan or drum. In other words, the toys should keep pace with the mental development.

After the first year box toys that open and shut and fit into each other are especially interesting, serving also the purpose of building and construction. Some children learn very early to turn pages in books. They may be provided with heavy cardboard sheets that are not easily torn. A child under three is likely to destroy a. book but after that age will develop pleasure in turning pages, particularly when there are pictures.

Doctor Thorn 'is especially doubtful about mechanical toys. He points out that they stimulate destructive impulses. It is logical that the child apart He loglca that THANKS FROM MAUSTON To the Editor We desire to express our gratitude for the many courtesies extended us while our Sixth Grade your plant Wednesday.

Having about faced on the federal forest proposl 3n lor northern Wisconsin counties, the Wisconsin now takes favorable action, but hold within its grasp such lands as have school loans attached to them. The delay caused by the withholeling of approval until after the federal forest commission had held a meeting at Washington Is likely to postpone a start on federal forests In this state for several months, unless a special session of the commission can be had to consider the proposed forests In this state. The next gathering of the national body, is slated for nesrt December, which means that nothing can be done cn th: Wisconsin project until that time If no special action is possible in the meantime. Other states, awake to the possibilities, are getting the project under way.

This state needs the federal forests and should lose no time in making a beginning possible. There is no excuse for playing politics in this movement. It Is too big an opportunity for pttt 1 bickering. Oahkoah Northwestern. tRoJ.
