Mr.. AND MRS. B. HEINEMANN
ENTERTAIN 1T THE CLUB
HOUSE.

On Friday evening last at the Club
house a reception and dancing party
was given by Mr.. and Mrs. Benjamin
Heinemann, which was in every detail
a most charming social function.
Guests began to arrive shortly after
s O'Clock, and were ushered into rooms
where wraps were laid aside. The re-
ceiving party was stationed in the
ladies' parlor and consisted of the fol-
lowing named: Mr. and Mrs. Ben
jamin Heinemann, Mr.. and Mrs. Walter
Heinemann, Mr.. and Mrs Sig. Hcine-
mann and Miss Belle Heinemann whilst
Miss Dorothy and Mr. Gabe Heinemann
lent their efforts to entertain and make
guests feel perfectly at home in the
main room of the club, in which it is
unnecessary to say that they succeeded
admirably.
The decorations were very handsome
and consisted of palms, ferns, cut
flowers and smilax The reception
hours were from s to 10 o'clock, during
the time Dirk's orchestra, which was
stationed on the first landing of the
stairway, rendered delightful music
There were about 800 guests present
and at the hour of ten all of those who
desired to enter into the delights of the
dance, repaired TO the hall, where
large expanse of waxed floor proved
very inviting to the lovers of terpsi
chore and the artistic decorations and
handsomely gowned women presented
an animated and enchanting scene not
soon to be forgotten.
Refreshments were served in the
billiard hall by Wausau's popular cater
er, Mrs. q. f. Bells. The tables were
small, decorated in keeping with the
event, and carried two, four and six
covers.
1t was late hour when the orches-
ira played its last number and guests
returned to their homes, having
thoroughly enjoyed the evening with
Mr.. and Mrs. Heinemann.
Those present from out of the city
were Mr.. and Mrs. Sig. heinemann
and the Misses Estelle, May and Mr..
Harry Heinemann, Mr.. and Mrs David
Livingston, all of Merrill; Mr.. and Mrs.
Walter Heinemann and VIM. Wolpert,

BUSINESS
FOR The MINISTRY
WHY A. &. WHITE RESIGNS MAN
AGEMENT OF BIG INDUSTRY.
He Has Worked His Own Way Up from
the Ranks to High Point of Success
but Now Gladly Resigns It All to
Prepare for Priesthood.

From business life to the ministry
business man. Yet Alfred G. White,
vice president and general manager of
the Minneapolis Beding company, will
put commercial life behind him Aug. |
and prepare at the Geral Theologlcal
seminary of New York to enter the
priesthood of the Protestant Episcopal
church. What may make the circum-
stance seem more incomprehenslble to
the purely worldly man of business,
Mr.. White leaves a position of impor-
lance and trust which he has attained
by gradual stages from the lowest
grade Of work in the company's plant,
with prospects Of bright business fu-
perity, for lowly SERVICE in clerical
ranks.
The change is made in response to
what Mr.. White conceives as a definite
call. He will retain his residence in
Minneapolis at 934 Fifteenth avenue
Sc, where he has made a home with
his widowed mother and sister.
Mr.. White is young man. Today
he passed the thirty mark. Born a
Canadian, ct the aeg of IA he entered
the commercial world. In 1891 he en-
tered the service Of the old Minneapo-
lis Furniture company as packer. When
G. NJ. Way took the bedding business
in 1893, Mr.. White followed him as
shipping clerk. He passed thru va
rious departments and when the COM
pany Incorporated in 1908 ne was made
vice president and general manager.
For many years Mr.. White has been
identified with religious work in Min.
neapolis as member of Holy Trinity
church.
Perhaps the most difficult step for
Mr.. White was to break the ties of long
standing with his employees. Superin-
tendent Albert E. Simms said today
that he could not express his sadness
over the disruption of the business ties
with his manager.
at the theological seminary He will
then be admitted to the diaconate and
at the end Of q year will be ordained as
priest. He must serve one year in the
diocese from which he goes out.

Of Captain Miller, where she is now be-
ing cared for by Mrs. Miller, until she
is able to take the work the captain

Captain Miller believes the girl is
telling the truth when she said that
she could not find work in spite of the
great demand for workers. She had
been waitress in restaurant for a
year and when' the restaurant was
closed for repairs she tried homework.
Unfortunately she knew nothing of
cooking, and the women she was work
ing for had not the patience to teach
three times and then became dis

ing the writ of certiorari secured by
Benjamin R. Coppage against the state
board Of equalization in the test tax
case, will probably be perfected soon.
G. H. Rossman, one Of the attorneys for
the relator, stated this morning that he
would be taken up with the retailers
association at once.
An attempt on the part Of the attor-
neys to secure a memorandum, explain
ing the judges grounds for <quashing
the writ, divulged the fact that there
was a difference Of opinion among the
members Of the district bench as to
their reasons for their order and that
a memorandum is therefore impossible.
