DEATH OF WIN. A. BAERWALD

Another old citizen of Wausau has
gone to his eternal rest-William A.
Baerwald. Mr.. Baerwald, who passed
away at the home of his daughter,
Mrs. Robert H. Haase, Saturday morn
ing, Dec. 2, 1916, had been in failing
health for a good many years, though
he was not confined to his home or bed
only at times. Everybody who has
lived here any length of time, knew
BILLY" as he was Familiarity called
by hosts of acquaintance. When
young man, Mr.. Baerwald clerked in
our stores and became one of the
most competent men in the grocery
line in Wausau. When James McCros-
sen opened his general stores in Wau-
sau in the early 70's, Mr.. Baerwald
had charge of the grocery department,
which position he held until he went
into the grocery business for him
self, in the COS. In 1901 he moved his
store into the Pilot building on Scott
street, where he remained until he sold
out, on the 1st day of August, 1911, on
account of failing health. His prOverb-
ial good nature, and kindly DISPOSE
ton, made friends of all with whom he
came in contact. 1t can be truly said
that Mr.. Baerwald never had but the
kindliest relations with a soul on
earth, and passed to his reward highly
respected and esteemed He had been
out on the farm OF Mr.. and Mrs.
Robert Haase, in the town of Texas,
for several months, hoping to regain
his health, and the announcement of
his death, which occurred Saturday
morning Dec g was a surprise and a
shock to his relatives and friends.
William A. Baerwald was born in
Dramburg, Germany, on the 9th day
of March, 1916, and when twelve years
of age he came to America with his
parents and brothers, who located in
Wausau on the oath day of June, 1857,
and this had been his home since that
time.
He leaves to mourn his death, three
daughters, Mrs. Robert H. Haase, of
the town of Texas; Mrs. w. F. Claus
sen and Mrs. F. B. Nelson of this city;
one son, Fred ]. Baerwald, and one
brother, Charles Baerwald, also of this
city.
The funeral services were held from
the home of Mr. and Mrs. w. F. Claus
sen, corner Third and Fulton streets,
Monday afternoon at 200 o'clock, Rev.
VIM. H. Gould of the First Universal
list church, officiating. The pall-bear
ers were old friends and neighbors,
viz: ]. G. Gebhart, E. G. Kretlow, F.

nj. nj. CORNER.

A few years ago there lived in this
county young girl as robust and
happy as could be found. Work was
a pleasure, and she loved school; like
other ambitious girls we have known,
she over-taXed her strength, and hav-
ing no mother to warn and guide her,
her health was neglected. Perhaps af-
ter learning the dress making trade,
there was lack of proper exercise,
and when a married sister sickened
and died, it was but natural that she
should lose sleep, and do heavy wash
ings. Severe lameness came on; this
was not considered serious until it
had become chronic, and medical treat
ment failed to remove.
Then came seven years of inactiOn in
wheel chair. Can you imagine what
this meant to one accustomed to earn
ing her own living, and to face-not
a lingering death, but life with ones
body literally turned to stone? For
this is what ancholosis is.
Then came a ray of hope. But
would it be best to encourage when it
might end in failure, or even if sue
cessful, might have to be abandoned
for lack of means?
Some money-less friends said it
must be tried. 1.-THE money must and
will be provided" and so it has been for
number of months, until now the
bent knee joints are Strengthened, the
ankles are becoming stronger, and the
young woman is walking on crutches,
and out on the porch every pleasant
day.
Miss Metz says, at was hard for me
to consent to have my friends ask for
help for me, but l saw l must accept,
if | was ever to get we'll"
Now, dear friends, it will take quite
sum of money to pay for board and
treatments through the winter, per-
haps, $125,-not so much either when
one considers how many will be glad
to add their mite.
One says, tell us where to leave the
money"
Next Friday, Dec. s, is our third an
niversary. We will meet with Mrs.
Mulligan, Henrietta ST., near South
Fourth ST. All are welcome.

Watertown Public Opinion: Peter
Norbeck's advantage in this primary
campaign lies in the record he has
made. He began in the beginning of
the progressive movement, and proved
himself a constructive, practical. hard.
headed statesman. Year after year
in public service he has been building,
doing something worth while. You
cannot find in NOrbeck's record any
tendency to simple destruction. His
method Of eliminating evils In state
government has been to work for bet
ter things and better systems to re-
place the old. This is big advantage
over an opponent who has no official
record whatever. and whose political
endeavors have always been directed
toward destruction.
