While attending the Skat Tournament
at Turner Hall Tuesday evening Gustav
Goetsch, our well-known citizen, suffered
a slight paralytic stroke. Those who
were playing with him noticed that he
was talking incoherently and doctor
was summoned who said that it was a
slight stroke. Mr.. Goetsch was taken
home Immediately where he isreceiving
the best of care and attention, and is
slowly recovering at last accounts.
Russell Johnson writes of a school
mate at Madison, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Ebert Hubbard who sailed on the
Lusitania. No word has been received
by the young girl who waits for news of
her parents and it is generally believed
that people so prominent as the Hubbards
could not have escaped death and no
word of their rescue reach the world.
Apparently even the bodies have not
! been recovered. 1t is when we know of
someone personally who is bereaved by
such occurrences that we understand to
the full the terrible thing that has
happened.
At the regular meeting of the Board
of Education held Wednesday evening
the contract for the supplies necessary
for the Domestic Science, Home Eco
Monies and Commercial Departments
was awarded to the Wallagher Co. Of
Milwaukee for the sum of $2974.10.
Bids had been submitted also by firm
of Grand Rapids, Mich. and one from
Keewaunee, Wis. Although one of these
bids was a trife lower than the bid of
the Wallagher Co., the contract was
awarded to the latter firm because of
the satisfactory supplies heretofore re-
ceived from them. The appointment
made by the teachers committee for the
ensuing year were ratified and other
routine business was also transacted.
