Delaware demonstrating his plan
of teaching Community Civics.
This will mean the instruction in
the public schools of the State of
the pupils of all ages, but especi-
ally of those above twelve years of
age, not only in an understanding
and appreciation of the form of
state and national government and
governmental activities, but also
in all the civic and community ac-
tivities that touch and shape the
life Of the citizen and community,
that make "welfare." Examples
of topics to be included are local
government, water supply, gas
supply, electric supply, fire sys-
TEN and police system. The pupils
relations to these and dependence
upon these community activities
is to be studied, explained and
made clear, so that for instance
waste of water from a spigot is
seen in it's true character, a need
less waste of public resources.
arrange, direct and oversee
Dr. Dunn, with his assistants
will arrange, direct and oversee
through the teachers in the
schools. He will meet the teach
ers in groups, to arouse enthus-
iasm, to give instruction and di-
rect the teachers how to study the
civic activities of their respective
communities so that they know
how to get the necessary and vital
facts, and how to present these in
lessons.
DR.. Dunn also has plans under
way in cooperation with Superin-
tendent Scott of the Wilmington
public school, that have for their
purpose the aiding of the foreign
population and especially those in
Wilmington to become efficient
citizens. This is really to be a
training in citizenship.
Industrial Survey
Another important work that is
being mapped out is an industrial
survey. This will be in charge of
DR.. William J. Bawden of the Fed

OPPOSED BY DR.. FRICKE.

The Northwestern Mutual Life In
surance bill to reduce the taxes OF
that company was up for a hearing
before the senate committee on cor
porations Thursday afternoon. The
plan proposed was severely criticised
by William A. Fricke of the Great
Northern company of this city, Gen.
Charles r. Boardman and HI. /. Weed,
representing the Oshkosh company,
and by other representatives of the
smaller Wisconsin companies. 1t was
contended that the Northwestern by
no means paid taxes, even as high as
they were, upon basis as unequal as
those paid by the smaller companies
The principal argument against the
relief bill was made by DIR. Fricke,
who presented figures to show that
comparing the taxes paid by the Wis
consin company with the taxes paid
by other large companies in their
home states, did not show such in
equality as was asserted. He also
contended that no one knew just
what the relief bin provided and chal-
lenged any insurance or tax expert TO
state what the effect Of the bill would

Y. n. C. A. NOTES.

Last Saturday noon the juniors of
the Y were entertained at a dinner,
given merely that they might have a
little social time. A delicious repaSt
was served after which games were
played. The junior clubs have been
holding weekly discussion groups every
week through the entire winter and
now that spring is beginning, it is
thought about time that the lessons
be brought to close. w. r. Boor-
man will review the work covered on
Heroes and at the end of two weeks
will give an examination which it is
expected nearly all the members of
these junior clubs will take. The
course has been very interesting and
the high school boys who have had
charge of the various clubs have con-
Quoted these groups very successfully
The discussions as well as the social
events have been very well attended.
c. f. Ogden's group of high school
fellows had supper last Tuesday
evening after which Mr.. Ogden led
another discussion on the "Boy."
There have not been very many at
these discussions and it is hoped that
more boys will enter the class.
Every Saturday evening the men
play volley ball and the teams which
have been playing for the past sever
al months stand as follows

To stimulate interest in track work
among the high school fellows q track
meet is being planned to take place
in the Y gymnasium this evening and
in which the Y. NJ. G. A. seniors and
the high school athletics will partici-
pate. The events will be conducted
as If it were a contest and they are,
the standing broad jump, running
broad jump, running high jump, fence
vault, relay race and last of all a
basketball game between teams of
picked men. The meet is sure to be
mighty interesting and will be help
to those who are planning TO get out
for track work at the high school.
Russell Starke, physical director, is
planning to carry track work into all
of his classes in which there are high
school fellows. This will get those
who are expecting to try out for track
at the school into shape and will aid
them in determining just what event
they would be best in.

CITY COUNCIL.

The city council held its regular
monthly meeting last Tuesday even.
ing. There was very little outside OF
routine business that came up to be
acted upon. 1t has been decided to
pave Forest from Third to Sixth and
Grand Ave-; from Forest street to
Strollers' bridge during our season
of 1916, and the work of laying
water, gas and sewer pipes must
be attended to. The street railway
will have to rebuild its line to con.
form to the new grade.
The state will be asked to refund
nearly S400, the amount overpaid ii
by this city, on account of an error
in assessing bank stock of 1913 in
stead of 1914.
The sprinkling wagons will all be
repainted by order of the council.
An ordinance was received and re-
ferred, which if passed, will license
taxicabs, busses, hacks, drays, etc.
For home vehicles the price will be
nominal, but for non-residents the
price for license will be $1,000.
Engineer B. @. Gowan submitted
plans for a sewer on Sixth street and
a wooden conduit at the west end of
the Stinchfield creek sewer, the cost
of both to be nearly $4,000. The
matter was referred.
A special committee appointed on
the efficiency of the fire department
recommended that the city purchase
a motor driven fire truck with suffi-
cient power to carry hose, ladders,
chemical apparatus, etc. 1t was de-
cided to secure bids for such truck.

BOWLING TOURNAMENT.

One week from last Sunday after
noon the bowling tournament of the
city of Wausau will begin. The
thought of the coming tournament is
creating a great deal of interest
among the bowlers of the city and
fiye-men teams and two-men teams
are being recruited everywhere. 1t is
the aim of every bowler to make this
tour ament complete success.
Over $3.50 is to be given away in
prizes, 60 per cent to the best bowlers
and 40 per cent to those with lower
scores. Each afternoon and evening
two prizes will be awarded on each
alley, one to the person who bowls
the highest score a.Io the other is to
be concealed prize, that is, the COM
mittee will determine upon a score
and the person rolling nearest to
that will receive this prize.
The games will be rolled on the
Owl, Club and Burly's alleys; the five
men teams will bowl at Burly's, the
two men teams at the Owl alleys and
the singles will be rolled on the Wau-
Sau club alleys.
The committee having charge of
the entries is very anxious that those
who are intending to enter the tourn-
ament do not delay filling in their
entry blanks and sending in the fifty
cents asked to enter each event. so
to 55 five-men teams are expected
to enter. The Club is expecting to
enter sixteen, the Elks four or five
and Burly's and the Owls large
number. Besides these there will be
several teams made up for the occasion.

ELK FOR WISCONSIN.
Twenty-Five Elk From the Yellow
stone Park Passed Through
Wausau Thursday.

Last Thursday, twenty-nine elk
passed through Wausau in charge of
Howard Eaton renowned hunter,
whose home is in Wolff, Montana. 1t
was not generally known that we
were TO have such distinguished Wis
itors from the wilds otherwise
half of our population would have
turned out, and then, perhaps the
members of the 3. p. o. Elks might
have tried to capture one for their
lodge rooms; as it was they passed
through on their way to the state
game park at Trout Lake, caus-
ing very little excitement. The ami
mails were brought from Yellowstone
Park, where the government has
about $1,000. Out of this herd the
government has offered thirty to
each state in the Union, and a
number have taken advantage of the
offer. Wisconsin signified its inten-
tion of taking thirty and placing
them in the state park at Trout lake,
but those in charge of the purchase
found that the transportation ex-
penses made it prohibitive, but finally
the G. NJ. & st. Paul r. r. came to
the rescue. Right here the Pilot
desires to make this observation,
whenever anything is to be done for
the advancement of northern Wiscon-
sin the railroads are not backward in
doing their share. We all "kick'' be-
cause the trains are late and because
some of us do not have depots which
are not up-to-date, and sometimes
because the service is poor; but these
are trivial compared to the good the
roads are eternally doing for the
good of the country generally. In
the case of transportation of the Elks,
the Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul
Road offered to bring the Elks to
Wisconsin free of charge. This was
indeed generous offer and, of course,
every paper in northern Wisconsin
will give the road full praise for its
generosity. There were sent out
from Yellowstone thirty animals but
in an accident while loading, one was
killed, and another had all of it's ribs
on one side broken, enroute, but
Mr.. Eaton thinks it will recover.
1t is thought that there will be
plenty of food in the park for the
herd even in the deepest SHOWS of
winter and that it will not be neces-
sary to purchase food for them; in
this case, they will thrive, multiply
and sometime in the future become
as plentiful as deer have been. The
special train was made up of an en-
gine, cattle car and caboose.

percentage of which was cut on his
own lands and shipped here.-Stevens
