YOUNG GIRLS LIBERTY.
Years Are Woman's Projection, an6
Youth Is Tlmo OF Danger,

The liberty and freedom Of action al
lowed young girls of today is tho sub
iect Of a forclble editorial by Edward
| w. Box in the Ladies' Home Journal.
THAT everything in life is tending to
make people freer in thought and ac-
ton is undouI ily true and 1t is
healthful tendency in the man-health-
ful for people of years and self-control, -
writes Mr. Box "But no advantage is
without its disadvantages. The freer
our lives become along beautiful and
safe lines the healthier Will our minds
become. But before we can safely
profit by these advantages we must
have lived long enough to know how to
use them and to understand what
phases Of them TO disregard, Because
women are freer TO travel alone than
ever before, II does not necessarily fol-
low that It Is wise and right that young
girls should be permitted to travel
alone, Here comes the truth Of the
proyerb that what's one mans poison
Is anothers meat. The time was when
u woman could not, with self-rospect,
30 to a place Of entertainment unat-
tended Now she can But that does
not make II right for q girl TO do 80,
The chaperon is none the less indis-
pensable to girls today than she was 30
years ago, She Is really more neces-
sary for as things become more and
more possible for women, they should
become more Impossible for girls, ThlBI
may sound hard and severe, but young
girls must remember that a woman's
years are her protection whore as a
girls lack Of years is her danger The
very aim and purpose Of the present
tendency for woman's greater freedom
viii be defeated If we allow It to guide
the actions Of our girls, The danger
to lmmaturlty always becomes greater
as the danger to maturity grows less,
That we should never overlook It laI
q blessed change that things are safely
possible TO women which were absolute
ly impossible few years ago. But prog |
ross is dangerous as well as healthful |
If parents interpret the present chang |
Ing conditions by allowing creator free
dom to their daughters they viii make
very sad mistake"

Will Fight Hard.

The authorities of Wood county are
determined to make the hardest fight
possible in the Lord and Emery MUIR
der trial, and to that end they are ar
ranging for formidable array of legal
talent to represent the state. Mr.. Cog
gins, who was district attorney of Wood
county at the time of the first trial, will
again conduct the prosecution, as he
did the last time the case was tried here,
and he will again b5 assisted by MIR.
Geo. R. Gardner. III addition to these
gentlemen the authorities of Wood
county have asked the governor that
Attorney General Mylrea be allowed to
help them in the case, and consent has
been given. Attorney George L. Will
lian,s will again lead the defense of the
accused, and he Will probably be as
sisted by local attorneys also.-Wausau

HIGH SCHOOL CHAMPIONS
Grand Rapids Closes the Season
Without a Defeat.
500 People Witness Final Contest.

Grand Rapids High school football
eleven played its last game of the year
in hazy snow storm on home
grounds Saturday afternoon, defeating
Mauston by score of 20 to 6. The
visitors came to this city with strong
combination Of their best high school
and city players, tipping the scales al
an average weight much heavier than
the home team. The strangers intended
to win, but they returned southwark at
night having served as good pigeon pie
for the doughty kickers who have not
yet learned how it feels to be trodden
under by an opponent. The result was
rousingly received by twin city rooters
and Howe High school students be-
cause it gave to Grand Rapids clear
title to the appellation champions of
Northern Wisconsin High school foot
ball teams" Scarlet and white floats
to the breezes from the top of a high
flagstaff. Its defenders were not scored
upon by strictly high school aggrega-
ton this year, they were not beaten by
any combination in the stronger COM
petitive classes. Howe High school
team of 1897 rests on the best record
made since football history began in
this city. A banquet is being arranged
to be rendered the young heroes of the
gridiron soon, and large picture of the
"champions' framed in oak will later
adorn prominent spot on the walls of
the high school room. Therein comes
the glory of football-after the victory.
Saturdays lineup was as follows:
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1897-12-02
New Grocery Store.

Mr.. Ben Hansen, who was formerly a
member of the firm of Hansen, Timm &
Briere, Centralia, has rented the west
half of the Pomainville store in which
he has opened grocery, -four and feed
store on his own account. His stock is
fresh and new and offers inducements
that shelf worn stock does not. Mr.
Hansen's extensive acquaintance with
the trade, his affable and genial man
ners, and his honesty and integrity with
customers in the past ought to warrant
him fair share of the trade. The only
thing left for him to do is to place an
vertisement in the REPORTER and
business success is assured. We join
with his many friends in wishing him
well.
