This was Father Rene Menard, a
Jesuit, who in 1861, in the northern
wilderness of the state, like the
Master we commemorate at Easter,
sacrificed his life in the service of
humanity For twenty years prior to
his coming to the West, this valiant
priest had labored among the fierce
savages of the East, amid hardships
and sufferings so intense that at
fifty-five his hair was white, his body
thickly SCARED with wounds, and
Ibis form bent as with great age"
He was sent to wisconsin in the Win
ter of 1660-61 to regenerate the
Ottawa, a wretched and skulking
band that roamed in the forests near
the southern shore of Lake Super
ior. The reception accorded the old
man by his charges was far from
encouraging. Sunk to the lowest
depths of savage degradation, they
Knocked at his teaching, enacted OBJ
scene celebrations before his eyes,
and at length drove him from their
cabins. He was forced in the height
| of winter to seek shelter in a rude
| hut constructed from scattering fir
boughs by his own trembling hands.
ooh God! what a dwelling during the
rigors of winter, which are almost
ri q %
Compelled to subsist for the most
part on vile refuse, acorns, bark and
moss, he very nearly died of starva-
ton. Still this heroic man did not
complain. He secretly administered
the last rites to several dying men
and women, and baptized few in
fants, and this cheered him. To his
superior he wrote, Il can truly say
that l have enjoyed in all my life
in whatsoever part of the world /
have been"
| Despairing at length of regenerat-
| ing his vicious flock, he set out in
the spring of 1861 to find a wander
ing band of Huron hiding from the
Iroquois in the northern forest Of the
state. While portaging at Bill Cross
Rapids on the Wisconsin river, not
far from where Merrill now stands,
he became separated from his guide,
and was swallowed up in the will
derness. Victim of starvation or of
some stray savage whom he had
come to redeem, he was the first
Christian martyr of Wisconsin.

CAUSE THERE ARE so MANY
INTERESTING BUGS TO STUDY
HEREi
The university students admire,
love and laugh at Prof. Kincaid.
He never flunks student. He
seldom calls the roll. Certain
classic jokes he tells his classes
over and over, forgetting that he
has used them before, and laughs
at them so heartily himself that
the students laugh too.
When he walks through the
campus he carries his umbrella
upside down. as likely as not. You
see, Prof. Kincaid has little time
to think of anything but his bugs
and his classes.
But because of this absent
minded, amusing savant, the
farmers in many states find ease

waging successful war on the
gypsy moth. Lumbermen sleep
