district but few people outside of New
York have clear conception of the
enormous congestion existing i'm the
lower East side district OF Manhattan.
A few hgures prepared by a careful
statistician, may be OF interest in this
connection. The most congested part
OF New York City Il that bounded by
the East River. Peck slip. Fourteenth

population of that district is estimated
at present at about 654, 800 people.
which is 100000 more than the COM
bined populations OF Delaware, Ne
vada, Arizona and Alaska. If the whole
city We're as densely populated as that
district, which forms but one half OF
one per cent of the area OF Greater
New York. New York would have a
population of 1SO,S7S,6OO souls. nearly
SO.OOO.OOO more than the entire present
population of the United states and it's
possessions in the Philippines Samoa.
Guam. Hawaii, and Alaska During
the five years from 1900 to 1905 this
district OF the East side received more

tai increase in population and the rate
OF increase is practically maintained

At the conclusion of the ceremony and

The remaining hours of the afternoon
were spentlin music and friendly chat.
The young couple are well and favor
ably known in our community, the

the Menasha Wooden Ware Co. Both
have hosts of friends, and we join with
them in wishing that future years

Their troubles as light as it's foam.

EDUCATIONAL
JOINT MEETING
Island Lake and Soft Maple Districts
Have Picnic Dinner and Instruc-
tive Literary Program

Last Saturday at the schoolhouse in
District No. z, town of Big Bend, an
educational meeting was held which
was somewhat different from any ever
held in the county before. Besides the
regulation papers, there was picnic
dinner in the schoolhouse, at which the
pupils, teachers, and patrons of several
districts enjoyed social time and after
the dinner literary program was rem
dered.
O. A. Sergeant of Atlanta presided
at the meeting and papers were read
by G. C. Feist, formerly teacher in
the Wisconsin Industrial school, and
w. B. Graham of the New Hutchinson
district, who is teacher of long ex-
perience. These are published on an
other page Of this paper.
County Supt. Mackin presented some
plans for improvement of education,
among which was the teaching of agri-
culture in the schools. He advocated
that such meetings as they were having
should be held often and hoped that
there might be much profit and pleasure
derived from them. He said that one
of the best things we can do in this
life is to make friends and keep the
good ones, and this result would be pro-
NOTED by meetings of the kind held that
day.

meeting at the Amacoy Lake ;hool-

High School Pupils Clear Neat Sum

Balance in the Treasury

Shakespeare play, The Merchant
of Venice" was most acceptibly rem
dered by pupils of the Ladysmith High
School at the opera house last Friday.
Both the matinee and evening perfor
nance were witnessed by crowded hous-
es. The actors had been carefully Sc
lected for their fitness for the parts they
were to play, and to particularly men
tion any one of them would be to give
credit to their natural ability rather
than to their efforts to perform their
parts WELL The performance showed
much latent talent in many of the par
ticipants, which should be cultivated.
Aside from the training to appear in
public with ease, the play afforded those
who took part an opportunity to give
proper expression to such classic literaz
