My own attention was first called to this banner as late as We were then in the midst 'of tho world war and Us consequent activities. was editing a depastment of tho local paper da- auggtstion that It deposited la th library. Tha banner then disappeared, and wai apparently forgotten. It was found years later in-the family of Milo Pitkin. Mr.

Pitkin had died -and his family had moved from town. Captain Harries himself one of the last aurvivora of the Light Guard and the only one who seemed to remember, had also died in July of 1921. The flag waa finally recoverad and recognised as a precious posaession. It haa been renovated, and Is being framed. It will be set up in the local court house as the-gift of bliss Nannie Colwell as a memorial to her father and his company.

This great white banner is to be retained in La Crosse- in affectionate remembrance and constant reminder. It presentation back to the ladles of La Crosse wilt be made on July 2. But who were these 'ladies of La Crosse' who made and presented the banner?

R. gill, old time citizen beloved of us all. said io me, Wby. Helen, La Crosse women were always patriotic. I wish youd write up for the paper our presentation of a flag to Captain Colwells company at the time of the civil war.

I said, 'Why of course, Mrs. Sill, I should bkdelight-ed to. Tell mo about it. "Well, she couldn't tel! me much except there was such a flag presented to the company, and that the presentation was made by the 'ladies of. La Crosse.

I searched carefully and found there was not one, but two flags presented at the time by the 'ladies of Ia 1 found there were in Ia Crosse at the outbreak of the civil war two military organizations, the Light Guard' and the Artillery company. The Light Guard was partly equipped and pretty well drilled, and it was tho first to go. Fifteen days after the attack on Fort Sumpter Captain Colwell had the company recruited to full strength, and on April SO it was enroute for Madison where it marched into Camp Randall under this very white silk Danner, the first of the state's companies to respond to the war call. The artillery left five months later, and were presented in September of 1861. also by the 'ladies of La Crosse, with a regular red, white and blue flag.

great struggle of '61 facts of interest and of value to the entire community. Cant someone remember? Oddly enough, though there is much casual mention in the local papers of the war period of activities of the La Crosse women, there is almost no mention of names. We know all the women were active for as Mrs. Sill said. La Crosse women were always patriotic.

The need of school additions to better the conditions was. a' large factor In the report of the board to the common council In 1873 when Dr. Anderson made a report containing the following paragraphs: School Site The want of additional achool rooms having been Impressed upon the board by frequent observations of crowded conditions of the school, and the Inability frequently, accommodate all. the applicants. It was decided that an additional building would very soon become a necessity.

Thinking that ao-i appropriation for a school site could be easier sustained by the taxpayers this year, than at the tlmo of, and In addition to, an appropriation for an expensive building, we made a contract for the purchase- of grounds, and submitted the matter to the-council for thelf consideration and approval. The. approval of the contract waa paased.by a i vote of nine to one. At a special meeting, of the council, two days before property waa to be transferred to the board a resolution waa offered by one of tho aldermen to reconsider their previous action.

Banner Passe "This story of the battery flag presentation and its return was written up for the La Crosse Tribune in the fall of 1918 after Mrs, Sills request.

In the meantime the Light Guard banner seemed to have passed out of existence. "An account In the Hokah Sun of the return of the battery flag to the ladies of La Crosse in 1888 gives the names of a committee of women formally representing the flag and receiving it back. These were: Mrs. A. Clinton, Mrs.

H. Cramer, Mrs. Dorset, Miss Nannie Colwell, Mrs. Frank Hatch, Mrs. John M.

Levy, Mrs. W. W. Crosby, Mrs. IV.

R. Sill. Mrs. Walter B. Webb, Mrs.

Gregg, Mrs. J. C. Cooper and Miss Susan de France. "These were some of the original donars of this battery flag, and it is probable that some of these ladles were also the donors of the earlier Light Guard banner.

Im sure of Mrs. Sill, as she was the one to remember. Also probably this Miss Gor don who made the presentation speech. I have also had an interview with Mrs. Mary Chandler, now living at 1207 South Tenth street, who says she helped sew the stars on this battery flag, and may have helped on the earlier white silk one, but she cannot clearly remember the latter.

Mrs. W. J. Showers, Onalaska, a sister of Captain Harries, remembers the departure of the Light Guard, but be ing only a young child at the time has no remembrance of the banner. Taken to Madison "The banner, itself, was taken with the company first to Madison, then to Washington, where it was left in the war department when the regiment entered active service.

Lateri probably as late as 1893, Captain W. H. Harries brought back to La Crosse this banner under which he marched out In 1861. He was at this time in Washington serving in the 52nd congress. He gave it to G.

M. Woodward of the Wilson Colwell post, which enrolled among its members the few survivors of the Light Guard, with DROWNS IN TROUGH WEST BEND, Wis. Falling head first Into a water trough on the Reginald Juech farm two miles west of the city, Sheldon Juech, 15 months, drowned. The child had wandered away from the house to the barnyard without being noticed. When the body was found half an hour later the head was Immersed in a toot of water.

The banner hand made, hand sewed and painted. Who sewed that silk? Who attached the dark blue fringe? Who painted those two blue. ovals? Who was present at the ceremony of presentation? no one remember anything at all about it? The committee earnestly Invites any Information along these lines, Miss Dorset said. My mother, of course, went out under the banner With Captain Col-tvell and his company, first to Madison and later to but she remembers nothing of.

the presentation, and evidently was not present at the ceremony The following Is the only men tlon found in the newspaper of the day, the Union and Democrat of July 6, 1860: A very handsome banner was presented to the La Crosse Light Guard at their festival Wednesday, evening. The banner Is made of white silk bearing the -Inscription in Pre seated to the La Crosse Light Guard by the Ladies of La Crosse. The presentation speech was made by Miss Gordon, and the reception speeches by Captain Colwell and Surgeon Baxter. The speeches were very happily conceived. Miss Gordon, we -find, was- a (eacher In the old fourth ward school, but we have been so far unable to find anything, about her.

Who remembers Presented Before War Now, ot course, this banner was presented In 1860, long: before there was any war call or anvwar excitement to Impress it In the mind. The Light Guard had been organized in 1858, and had already passed a busy two years of drilling, marching, playing, military balls and visits to the LAFAYETTE COUNTY WOMAN. 88. IS DEAD DARLINGTON.

In his annual report to the council In 1874, I)r. Anderson' referred to the tuition of students fet that time, stating, The cause fotlrreg ular attendance was the increased cost of tuition per scholar as com pared with' other places. As "this subject of tuition will enable' us to meet the criticism of too high sal arles, we will compare the cost of tuition the rast year with that of the previous year, and also' with that of achools of other clties. In a statement of cost of tuition in twenty different cities which we hate to refer to, there are four with tuition less than $13.00, five leas than $14, and twelve varying from $14.33 to in La Crosse for 187273 the average number be longing to the schools was 0D3, and the amount paid for tuition The cost of tuition' 'was therefore $10.38 per pupil. Fo the year 1873-74, the average fiutober belonging was 1,251, add the amount paid for teachers salaries was $16,712.25, the cost pef pupil being $13.30, thus showing that the same rapacity of school rooms and In a number of casea with increased salaries, the cost of the city for tuition.
