HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

Ethel Panabaker, Estelle Luther, Roy
Edgar and LYDIA Lambert. Anna
Ehreke read an essay on the character
of the Swiss people. The debate was,
resolved that the president of the
United States should be elected by
direct-vote of the people. Affirmative,
Emil Breitkreutz, Emma Pardee; Theo.
Blank, Alice Smith, decided in favor of
affirmative
That high school pupils can appreci-
ate something besides rag-tifne was
shown in the enthusiasm with which
they applauded Mary Harger's excel
lent violin solo,
John Phillip Sousa's One Man Band,
introduced by Cork" Bishop, was a
feature of the evening. John Philip
in full regalia was mpersonated by
Robert Haskin. He was rassisted by
Alex. Gebhart, bass drummer and
vocal soloist, Ed. Gamble, solo cornet,
and Don Murray, snare drum. The
comical antics of the troupe kept the
audience in an uproar during the whole
performance.

FOOT BALL.
From reliable source, we have the
information that the result of last Sat-
urday's game was due almost wholly to
the condition of the grounds The sew
eral inches of mud covering the field
was disastrous to the open play our
boys used in the first half. Grand Rap
ids used mass plays during the entire
game. Wausau adopted this course in
the second half and showed that the
home team was at least the equal of its
opponents, though some unlucky
play prevented our making a touch
down. The stars of the game were
Sexmith, Fleming, and Gillian. Score

Next Saturday Wausau will try her
skill against Amigo at the latter place,
and hopes to make a better showing
than yet this season.

Two Furnaces az New Steel Plant in
Operation.

AS result of the conference which
was held Saturday night between the
committee representing the striking pud-
dlers ut the .ainond State Steel Com
pany ana II. I. Wallace president of
the Steel Company, the mills were start
ed up full force yesterday morning with
all of the men back at their regular
places. The men returned to work at
the reduced wages which caused them
to 90 out several weeks ago. but with
the understanding that their wages
would be raised as soon as an advanced
price in iron warranted it. There were
only $50 of the puddlers but their quit
ing caused the mills to be closed down
thereby effecting about 1900 employees.
The mills were closed for four weeks
and during that time the pay roll for the
1900 men would have amounted to $780,
600. Steel is now being made in two of
the new steel plants furnaces and new
workmen are being employed every
week. Another one of the furnaces will
be started the last of this week.

Fat the Foe of Consumption.

Consumption is most prevalent
among those who are stinted or who
stint themselves in the use Of fat
foods. Everybody has learned and en-
ployed the knowledge. usually when it
is too late. that cod liver oil Is good
for consumption. Few seem to have
learned that food of the same char
acter suitable for the table is prevent
i've of consumption In the whole
course of my professional observation,
covering period of nearly 60 years,
| have known but rarely family or an
individual that was brought up on a
liberal supply of butter and bacon who
became tuberculous. Moreover, such
food fortities the system against other
diseases as well as consumption. 1t
establishes stamina.-Dr. Bell in the
Sanitarium.

HOME LIFE ON THE WANE.
English Hostesses Accused of Being
Perpetual Gadabouts.


Perpetual Gadabouts.
Slowly, hut surely. the pride the
English hostesses took in their home,
in their reputation for hospitality and
in their ability to plan pleasant little
entertainments for their friends is pass
ing away. The smart young hostess no
longer cares TO welcome her guests
among her Lares and Penates; 1t is no
longer her earnest desire to display her
housewifely genius; no longer her am
bition to shine as "clever little wom-
an who SO thoroughly understands just
what every one likes"
There are too many irons In society's
fritter away time in this fashion. More
over. people want incessant novelty;
they are bored with even good menus,
they tire of certain surroundings, they
must have everything a little in ad-
vance, and as little as possible like any
thing that obtained a decade, to say
nothing of two decades. ago. Thus it
Is we rush with our friends in unhome-
like fashion from restaurant to restau-
rant, like bona fide travellers; thus it is
we inhospitably, one might almost ven
ture to say meanly, ask our friends to
share expenses with lis in the little
pleasures we should once have offered
them. The commercial spirit Is indeed
rampant in us in this advanced age
One almost breads to think what next
must be sacrificed to it and what will
be the home life and the English house
mother of the next generation.-Ladies'
Pictorial.
