A Reception.

The members of the senior B.
Y. P. U. gave Mr.. and Mrs. L.
D. George a reception last Fri
day night at the home of Mr..
and Mrs. Jos. Pigman. A pleas
ant time was enjoyed for several
hours in the playing of games
and social chat, after which
luncheon was served. 1t was
nearly midnight when the genial
party took their departure for
home. On leaving they all ex-
pressed themselves Of having en-
joyed a very pleasant evening
and wished the bride and groom
many years of happiness and
prosperity in their journey in life.

She was nearly II years old and
she began teaching in the sum-
mer of 1916 when l attended my
first term. / owe an immeasur-
able debt of gratitude to her for
she it was that confirmed me in
my thought that all people
should have justice alike. She
was an unflinching advocate of
the freedom of the colored race
and their uplifting by education
al means. She lived most of her
life in or near the town of New
port, where the head Office of the
Underground was situated. She
was a worker side by side with
Levi Coffin and wife for many
years in assisting the slaves to a
place of security. A great many
of the things that l have written
and will yet write, | obtained
from her in regard to the care
the people of that town gave the
fugitives. 1t seems strange but
every few days things come to
my mind that she told me a half
century ago. Ruth Ann Egeton
was the womars name, but when
she began teaching her name was
Rogers. She was born in North
Carolina but left there when a
child, but went back and attend
cd school there for a while and
she observed the effect of slavery
on the communities where it ex-
listed. l we'll remember an in
stance that proved her sterling
integrity and love of right.
In those days we went to sub
scription schools where the par
ents paid tuition to their teach
ers. This was before the advent
of district schools to any great
extent. AT the old Quaker meet
ing house we had this kind of
schools and the teacher was
somewhat under the care of a
committee of the Friends as the
patrons were mostly members of
that church in that place. There
was in the settlement and close
to the meeting house wher the
school was held a colored family
by the name of Rice. Whether
old Mister Rice had ever been a
slave or not, | do not now re-

'The remarkable development of the
water power of the upper Wisconsin
river is a matter which should be ex-
plotted, said Mayor Bert Williams Of
Ashland at the Hotel Pfister. At
Rhinelander they are building very
pretentious plants for a paper mill
which will have cost in the neighbor
hood OF 81, 600, 900 and at Grand Rapids
improvements to the extent of 81 200,
900 are being made. The people in
that part of the state are greatly IN
terested 10 the prospects. The improve
msnts are the work Of local companies
largely, at Rhinelander Congressman
Brown being interested with others,
II shows that the paper mill rs 10 sue
ceed the sawmiIl as the leading indus
try in northern Wisconsin. The
water power on the Wisconsin river is
wonderful. Dams can be built almost
every ten miles or so as far down as
KilbOurn City. When one stops 70
think Of the trouble the manufacturers
on Fox river hsve in getting power, It'll
Is surprising that more attention has
not been directed towards the great
power that has been going TO waste on
the Wisconsin river. At Grand Rapids
SO, 600 was paid for the riparian rights

river is almost unlimited - Milwaukee
