Although there will be vast amount
of building going on'in this city during
the coming season yet there will not be
nearly enough houses constructed to
supply the demand, unless the tide of
immigration turns, which is not at all
probable. Wausau is known all over
the state as being a good city of healthy
growth and this fact has brought many
residents to our city of late. These
people naturally want a place to live in
and the result is that never within the
memory of the oldest inhabitant were
houses so scarce as now, and those liv-
ing in rented houses are paying rates
for the same that few years ago would
have been considered very high. The
expanding of money in the construc-
ton of several well arranged flats, by
those who have the money, would be
an investment that would pay. While
the city expands in population the eX-
pansion in buildings suitable for dwell
ing houses has not kept pace.

of school and have an extra half hour
in the afternoon to do chores at home.
This has been found very practical
scheme and will be continued the rest
of the year. The Lincoln and Irving
schools also have dinner pail brigades,
and have requested that they be given
the same hours. The plan is now being
tried in these buildings and if it proves
satisfactory request will be made to
have it permanent. The teachers find
that the children do better work be-
cause they have not spent their energies
in playing out doors but come fresh to
their work in the morning.

CITY SCHOOL NEWS.
ATHLETICS.

! ATHLETICS.
! Among the boys the only matter of
any particular moment just now is the
new running track and field athletics
in general, while the fact that the girls
take some interest in like matters is
shown by the crowds that gather at the
assembly room windows every recess
! to watch the progress of the track.
Considerable time has been spent dur
ing the past week in laying this track
on the high school campus and it is now
practically complete. 1t will be of
cinders, one foot deep, twelve feet wide
and one quarter of mile long. When
finished it will be one of the best tracks
in the state and the only one owned
exclusively by a high school. The
proximity of the track to the high
school baths will be of great value to
the men; the convenient situation of the
track will undoubtedly drawaout many
who would not otherwise take up the
work.
All the old men who took part last
year are advancing rapidly and some
good new material is turning up among
freshmen, sophomores and eighth
graders. In fully one half of the events
our men have already made the test
necessary for qualification.
Several new vaulting standards have
been added to the athletic apparatus.
Merrill has declined our invitation to
a field meet anu Gr"nd Rapids has ac-
cepted, so we will have a joint meet
with the latter on the high school
campus.
Indoor base ball teams have been or
ganized with a view to getting the girls
more interested in athletics than is pos
sible with the regular gymnasium work
Each of the teams promises to be a
strong one though the Sophomores and
eighth graders seem to have the Best
teams at present. The acting captains
are: Sophomore, Lita Henema an; fresh
man, Adelia Lemke; eighth grade, De-
Elite McEachron. Owing to the mar
rowness of the gym, in the court laid
out, the distance from first to third
base is somewhat shorter than the reg
ulation distance but the base runs are
all the required length.

This is to certify,
That ..................... ................
has contributed to the construction OF
the
Wrusau Public Library Building.
M. j. PLUMER,
Chairman.
In the year 1901.

These ca, DIS are to be left at the vari-
Gus schools next week and will be given
to all pupils that contribute. At the
same time two lists or these pupils with
their own signatures will be secured;
one list to deposit in the corner stone
of the library building, and one to be
bound into a book TO be kept among
the valuable historical records per-
tanning to the library.
As there are only about $500 pupils in
all the schools not more than $3.50 will
be secured this way, so it is evident
that the object is not to raise money,
but to awaken the pupils to an appreci-
alton of the value of the building when
once secured. And yet the children
will feel that they have done their part,
and that by cooperating even in such
humble way quite a respectable
amount can be raised.
1t is hoped that the parents and teach
ers will earnestly cooperate with the
committee to give every pupil an, OPP
portunity to make a free will offering
out of his own earnings or savings, if
possible.

A NEW PLAN.

The ladies who have been appointed
the committee on Library Building
have various plans for raising money
toward this project. There is one plan,
however, whose object is not to raise
money, but to interest the children and
youth of our city in the library idea,
and in such way that they will become
loyal supporters of the library in the
years to come. The plan is to give
every pupil, both in the public and in
the parochial schools, an opportunity
to contribute a small sum, either five or
ten cents, (but not over ten cents to-
ward the building. The gift to be purely
voluntary, where pupil does not care
to ask his parents for such sum and yet
wishes to help, some way will be found
by the committee to let him earn that
amount.
To carry out this plan the ladies are
having neat cards printed with this
legend

PULP VS.. LUMBER

The paper and pulp industry is giving
the Maine saw mills back seat-for
example, Bangor letter says that while
it is true that drives may be late in any
year from natural and unavoidable cause,
it is also true that much of the delay
lately experienced has been caused by
the holding up of drives at sorting gaps,
in order that pulp logs may be sorted out
from the others. This process of sort
| ing out delayed the East Branch drive
seventeen days this year, and there is no
telling how long it will take to sort the
pulp logs from the West Branch drive.
There seems to be no remedy for this,
because, with the pulp men buying logs
from many different operators, located
at widely separated points along the
numbering waters, the various lots OF
logs purchased must necessarily be
mixed all through the drive when the
logs are started down the river in the
spring. 1t seems to be question OF
which will survive-the pulp mill or the
saw mill-and, as the pulp men are the
richer and their business the more
profitable, it is the belief of many that
except where favored by exceptional
advantages, the saw mills must soor
disappear.

SUMNER VETERANS.
THEY MEET IN REUNION AND FORM A
PERMANENT ORGANIZATION.
EAST SUMNER, Aug. l6, 1901.

EAST SUMNER, Aug. l6, 1901.
At the reunion of the old soldiers OF
Sumner which occurred at West Sumner
on the l4th inst, a permanent organiza-
ton was effected to meet annually with
the following officers for the present
year:
Presilent-William G. Abbott.
Vice.Presi ent-rrank j. Brown.
Secretary and Treasurer-Capt. g. NJ. Small
The next meeting will be held at East
Sumner in one year. Old soldiers from
adjacent towns eligible. Several such
have already joined. The reunion oc-
casion was one of pleasure and interest.
Attendance good. An ample and ex-
celent baked bean and pastry dinner
was served to all present. Hiram Howe
made a noble, patriotic address OF
welcome to the "boys." The principal
speakers were Rev. B. F. Turner and
Capt. C. H. Prince of Buckfield. The
ladies in the vicinity are entitled to
much praise for the pretty house decora-
lions and table service.
The ladies and citizens generally in
town are in full sympathy with the
"boys in blue" and always show their
patriotism and loyalty on all similar oc-
casions. Sumner has proud record of
loyalty in the past, and is not lacking in
the present.
