BASKET BALI.

Last Friday evening the .Wausau
high school basket ball team defeated
Amigo for the second time this sea-
son by score of 80 to II, thus keep
ing in the race for entrance to the
Oshkosh preliminaries and in line for
Appleton.
Amigo, it was said, had increased
In playing ability and so it was. The
game was fast and clean, there being
only few fouls called during the
entire game. There was big crowd
present and they were at all times
paying the closest OF attention, for
everyone knew that there was some
thing to play for.
Every man on the team of the locals
played an excellent game. Captain
Eggebrecht himself pushed over six
baskets, and although out of the reg
ular berth he played an all-around,
good game. Dewey, his opponent,
was held safe at all times without a
basket, although he had the jump on
our captain. Christian played an
excellent game, getting three baskets.
His man was the star of the opposing
team and made Christian work. Harry
Swanson played fine game against
Tielk, getting five field baskets. Tielk
lowered way above Swanson, but was
nevertheless kept more than on the
go. Karl Schmidt and Otto Egge-
brecht both played fine game, cut
ting down many of Amigos attempts
at the basket. Schmidt got one field
basketto.Ais opponent the same. Otto
Eggebrecht played good game, much
better, it appears, than in the game
our team played with Tomahawk.
The game all through was one of Inter-
est, but toward the beginning the
score was almost even and there was
more enthusiasm than there is usually
in two or three games. The first half
of game closed with the score: Wau-

POINTS FOR CHICKEN RAlSERs

everybody tries to raise chickens at
some time or another. Looks easy
that's the deceiving part OF it.
And it is easy, after you learn one
thing: Little chickens don't know
anything, medium-slzed chickens don't
know anything, big chickens don't
know anything. If there is any change
of an intellectual nature as the size
increases, the big ones know less, if
possible, than The little ones.
If there is wire partition in your
pen, with an open door at one end,
the chickens will try to plunge
through the wire instead of going
round and walking through the door.
In the course OF time, when the birds
get heavy, they will hang themselves
trying to do this if you don't watcn
them

than roosters, because they can lay
eggs if they viii. But if you take
dozen small chickens and raise
them carefully, it is always surprising
how many of them turn out to be

tail feathers at the very last minute.

Gus Janzen and Mike Haas we've
here from Ellinwood Saturday on a
business trip and visiting with their
many friends. Both gentlemen are
rural mail carriers out of Ellinwood
and the few days vacation they get
in the course of year are certainly
appreciated. Both use automobiles on
their routes, each having a No. 10
Buick, and when the roads are in
any kind of shape the patrons on
their routes receive excellent ser
vice from the fact that they cover
the routes so quickly, leaving Film
wood after 10 O'Clock and are gen.
orally back in town again by
O'Clock. Mr.. Haas used a team on
mis- route last last Friday, but Mr..
Janzen took his car and while he say
he had fierce time bucking through
some Of the drifts, as the snow was
piled in the roads badly, he still man
aged to get back to the office before
two O'Clock. He pays high tribute to
the Buick as the one has now been
in continuous service on the route fol
over three years, besides doing a lot
OF livery work of afternoons and ever
ings. During that time he has never
had to have assistance in any way,
and the car today is practically as
good as new. That is certainly a
good record both for Janzen and the
car.

Lost One Amendment.

The settlers asked one other amend.
ment which failed; it was that the
state should pay the cost of the sur
vey if the land should be determined
to be school land. This failed. But
the settlers have not lost hope on
that. They have twenty years to pay
out and they figure that some other
legislature, recognizing the great ben,
eft to the school fund will eventual
ly give them credit for this expense
on the cost Of their land.
But the bill as it stands gives them
chance to make their proof and Sc
cure their lands.

attorneys for the riparian owners,
who drew the bill, that this change
of definition cannot affect the rights
of existing settlers. In other words,
and the senate judiciary committee
unanimously expressed the same opin'
ion, the legislature cannot make an

than it could make an accretion, an

The new definition Of island will not

NO court in the world will ever
hold that the legislature by defini-
ton can destroy vested rights, or
set aside rights previously acquired.

"The riparian owner can no more
take islands away from a settler by
this change of definition than the
settler could take a true, lawful &C
erection away from the riparian ownef
by a similar change.
What the riparian owners wanted
and counted on was the twenty-day
limitation for a survey. This would
have been deadly for the settlers.
Losing that, they lose all.
"The law as 1t stands, while in some
respects onerous on the settlers,
gives them a chance to try out their
rights in court and that is all thsy
have ever asked.
Thank you, we are feeling pretty
good tonight. Ny respects to the
riparian owners. We licked them"

Underwood, upon which Mr.. Wilson
based his decision to convene the
session April l, was sent after MEM
. bers Of the ways and means commit
tee had agreed that it would be pos
Sible to perfect several of the tariff
bills by that time. Members of the
committee today predicted that these
measures would consume less than a
month in passing the house and that
there would be no marked division
cot opinion in the committee over the
preparation of any of the bills.
The caucus of Democratic house
members March is expected to con-
firm to serve again all the hold-over
Democrats now ON the ways and
means committee, and to fill the
Democratic vacancies caused by the
retirement of Senator-elect James
/, and Representative Randall of Tex
as and Representative Brantley Of
Georgia. The work thus far done by
the committee will be reviewed by
the new committee and the bills pre-
pared. in detail for submission to a
5full Democratic caucus Immediately
after the converting of congress.
An income tax bill is being prepar-
ed by Representative Hull of Tenne-
see, and probably will be one of the
early measures introduced in the
house.
