TRAIN LOAD OF
LIVE STOCK
Will Be in Wausau Thursday, June 6.
Don't Miss 1t.

One man cannot increase the pres
tige of the state in producing live
stock. Wisconsin has grown to be
one of the greatest live stock states
in the Union because of the united
efforts of all Of the men interested in
this line of work. One of the great
est things that has been done for inn
proving live stock is the running of
special live stock trains. The first
train was run few weeks ago in the
southern part of the state. The
second trip will be made during The
next two weeks. A carload of live
stock is taken on the trip as well as
other exhibits that serve to illustrate
the points men need to know in get
ting better results from growing live
stock. Prof. G.. G. Humphrey, Prof.
J. L. Tormey, Prof'J. G. Fuller, Dr.
A. S. Alexander and other lecturers
from the College of Agriculture of the
University of Wisconsin will accom-
pany the train and illustrate their
lectures with the live animals. The
whole plan has been worked out by
the State Live Stock Breeders asso-
citation and several speakers from this
organization will give the results of
their experience TO the farmers who
attend. The train will be at Wausau

June l marked the opening of the
fishing season in all the waters of the
state, save three inland lakes, for all
game fish except speckled trout The
season for these opened on April Is
and will Close on Sept. l.
The opening day under the old law
for all other game fish except bass
was May 25, but the last legislature
changed it to June l and the season
is now uniform for all game fish ex-
cept trout.
In Big Green lake, Green Lake
county, where the water remains cold
late in the season, the fish spawn
later and for that reason black bass
and Oswega yellow bass are protected
until July l.
In DEVILS lake, Sauk county, the
season is closed for all game fish from
Dec. Is to the fifteenth day of the fol-
lowing June, and in Mirror lake and
Dell creek, Sauk county, the closed
season is also from Dec. Is to June Is.
1t is unlawful to have more than
fifteen black bass or Oswego yellow
bass in ones possession at any one
time or to take bass less than ten
inches in length. Pike must weigh
at least pound, muskallonge two
pounds dressed, sturgeon four pounds
dressed and trout must be at least
six inches in length and not more
than forty-fiye may be taken at any
one time

The Mosinee schools closed last
week, the class roll being as follows:
Clara Irene Berry, Hazel Dell Hoard,
Pearl Elva Kanter, Ethel Athea La
Mere, Rudolph c. Kocka, and Edith
May Priest.
The baccalaureate sermon was de-
livered by Father j. j. Brennan Of
this city. The Times speaks of the
sermon as zone of the finest addresses
of that nature ever given in this city.
Rev. Brennan was not in the best Of
health, but that did not detract any
from the earnestness and impressive
ness of his sermon which was full Of
good, sound logical advise to those
who are emerging from school life to
face the sterner possibilities Of She
world. The hall was crowded to the
doors by a most appreciatiye au-
dience."
On Wednesday evening at the grad
uating exercises, Miss Elizabeth
Montgomery of this city was on the
program for a vocal number. The
presentation of diplomas was made by
President Bernier of the Board of Ed
ucation.

and spelling again commenced. The
contest soon narrowed down to Miss
Brightman and w. o. Butler. The
latter finally fell ON that simple little
word ''idiosyncrasy." As we took our
seat on the first word propounded to
us, we had lots of time to take notes.
Sitting beside an individual who
scorned to enter the affair, we were
highly amused, for as each word was
pronounced he spelled it to us soto
voce and missed four and a half words
out of every five.

RETURNED TO MARATHON
COUNTY.

Mr.. and Mrs. James Sexton and
children who went out West early
last spring, to visit and with the idea
of locating, provided they liked the
country, have returned and they are
again on their farm in the town of
Hewitt. They went to Leavenworth,
Wash. The country there is not
adapted to farming, it is more for
fruit raising. The fertile lands lie in
the valleys between the mountains.
There is one good thing about that
section, it is much milder than it is
here. If Mr.. Sexton can dispose of
his farr7 here he says he and his
family may go west TO reside. How
ever, their friends are delighted to
see them back

MAY FESTIVAL A GRAND sue
CESS.

The most beautiful sight ever seen
or planned here in Wausau was the
May fete or festival given by three
thousand children of orr public
schools, under the direction of Miss
Marilla Zellhoefer, assisted by the
teachers of the various schools, on the
high school campus last Wednesday
afternoon. The festival was that in
the full sense of the words meaning;
the prettily dressed children enjoyed
themselves as much in going through
their various drills a.s did the several
thousand spectators watching the
performance. There were all kinds
of drills-from the opening march to
a May pole dance and everyone was
executed in a daace step to the
music of the high school orchestra,
which played throughout the per-
formance. How it ever was possible
for Miss Zellhoefer to drill such a
mass of chilG1en into keeping such
perfect step and time, was puzzle to
the spectators. Her work Is certainly
deserving of the highest praise. The
festival has proven itself such pleas
ing and enjoyable affair to the chill
dreH and their teachers, as well as
the people who were lucky enough to
witness it, that it is now planned to
make the fete an annual feature of
our schools. The large and spacious
campus was crowded to its utmost
capacity and for a time it was feared
that the crowd would interfere with
the drill work of the children.

TELLS WOMEN HOW TO HAVE
CHARMING HAIR.

Rough, coarse hair is unnecessary;
so is faded, dull looking hair.
Dandruff and scalp itch are both
caused by an accumulation of scurfy
tilth and can easily be gotten rid of.
Dandruff germs cause falling hair
and diseases of the scalp, and should
be destroyed.
If you have any of the hair troubles
mentioned above w. w. Albers will
guarantee PARISIAN SAGE to end
everyone of them or will refund your
money.
PARISIAN SAGE is delightful
hair dressing that is being used today
by many thousands of lovely Ameri-
cans who detest uncleanljness. Large
bottle so cents.
