The Central Wisconsin, with its
last issue entered upon its fifty-sec-
ond year by extending to its readers
the seasons greetings. The Central
was established in 1857, when Wausau
was hole in the woods, and at a time
when it required courage to launch
such an enterprise. From its birth it
has passed through several hands, but
for the past forty-one years its pres
ent editor, r. IL. Johnson, has guided
its destinies. There is an old pun
which reads like this: "Why is a
lobster like written will?' Ans
Because its every part is re(a)d.'
The value of the Central can be cor
rectly estimated if we substitute its
name for that of the long tailed
crustacean bird of the deep sea, in
the above. The Turks best wish for
friend is, MAY your shadow never
grow less,' which we hand to Robert
on silver platter.
