HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

j. Mohammad Ali gave the school an
hour talk on India, last Friday which
was very interesting Among other
things, he told us that in certain parts,
people permit their dead to be eaten by
vultures, instead of being buried under
ground.
Mr. Scholes was very doubtful as to
the financial outcome of the game last
Saturday. A meeting was called and
inside of fifteen minutes twenty dollars
fray the expense. This shows up the
high school spirit in Wausau.
The Necedah school teachers had
visiting day and ten of them visited the
Wausau schools The list Included:
Edwin F. Sanders Nellie Close
Julia Tormey Frances Toracey
Edna Allen Maria Gaffney
Elizabeth Fletcher Agnes Taylor
They all spoke highly of the Wausau
schools and went home well satisfied
with their visit.
There will be no lyceum next Friday,
but the program will be held the day
before Thanksgiving. AS rule the
lyceum programs are too long or the
time is too short, for the exercises usu-
ally last over half an hour after closing
time. A way to remedy this would be
to have lyceum once week and make
the programs shorter.
Anna 4. Schaefer, inspector of deaf
schools spent Monday with Miss Hurley
and inspected her school.
There was a regular school board
meeting last evening at which only
regular business was transacted.

Now that the football season is over,

The Wausau high school team met
the Grand Rapids team last Saturday
and played tie game, although out
weighed by ten pounds to the man,
Wausau clearly outplayed the Rapids
Despite the fact that the field was one
mass of mud Wausau put up a defense
that held like a stone wall against the
heavy Rapids team. Kraatz for Wau-
sau, and Arpin for the Rapids, both put
up good kicking game, although a
great many of the latter's attempts
were blocked by the Wausau forwards.
Arpin seemed to be the star for Grand
Rapids, while Stuhlfauth, Jones and
German did particularly we'll for our
side. The game was opened by Jones
kicking off to Grand Rapids. Wausau
held and secured the ball but could not
advance. Grand Rapids again took the
ball and carried it to our thirty yard
line, where Wausau again held After
using straight football and exchanging
Rapids eighteen yard line Lamotte
then tried drop kick but the ball went
wide. The whistle soon sounded with
the ball in Grand Rapids territory.
Grand Rapids kicked off and Lamotte
fumbled but recovered and by a pretty
run, brought the ball back twenty yards
The Rapids soon secured the ball and
advanced down the field to Wausau's
eighteen yard line, and little later the
ball was brought to the six yard line,
when a touchdown was soon made No
goal was kicked
Grand Rapids 5, Wausau O.
Wausau Kicked off to the Rapids boys
but they were unable to hold it. Wau-
sau securing the ball in the middle of
the field. By steady football the ball
was advanced to Grand Rapids fifteen
yard line, when Jones went fifteen
yards for touchdown. Kraatz kicked
out and Lamotte made fair catch, but
Jones missed the goal, Grand Rapids
again kicked off to Wausau but the
whistle soon blew with Wausans ball
in Grand Rapids territory. Wausau 5,
Grand Rapids 5.
Following is the line up of the two
