COLD AND RAINY

Last Sunday was a stormy day, in
fact so stormy that many were kept
home from church services. Rain fell
all Saturday night and on Sunday
morning a strong, cold wind came
from the northeast and rain fell in
torrents at intervals all day, and one
could hardly go out without getting
drenched, even if clothed in rain coat
and carrying an umbrella. The rain
fall was general covering all of Wis
consin; over an inch was registered
here and at Knowlton it was even
heavier Many had to forego Sunday
services on Mothers Day." many had
to forego auto trips which had been
arranged into the country; golf games
and shooting contests all had to be
given up. but then, there was salts
faction in staying at home and taking
a rest More rain and cold weather
says the weather bureau.

THE LAST, BIGGEST AND BEST
SHOW OF THE SEASON

1t is surely the work of an artist to
create such an intangible quality as
spirit, and that was the task which
Walter Browne, the creator and author
of "Everywoman," the first of the
modern morality plays, sought in the
Interpretation of his work. For the
writer of a play in which virtues and
vices and passions are bodied forth
in fieshly wrappings can only suggest,
the interpreter must create. To por-
tray the spirit of youth he designed
that young girl should make the rep
resentation, and in the selection of
Hazel O'Brien for the role, Henry w.
Savage has shown again the foresight
which has made his productions so
notable. Miss O'Brien will be seen
as Youth in the performance of Every
woman" which will be given at the
Grand opera house Thursday, May Is.

ROTARIANS

The Rotary club held it's semi
monthly dinner at the Wausau club
yesterday noon, there being a large
attendance. President Zimmerman
made several announcements, among
them that the discussion "The City
Manager Plan of Government" had
been postponed to later date, and
instead an illustrated lecture was be-
ing arranged for on that occasion.
He also gave notice of the annual cleo
ton which is to be held in June.
Thomas Malone, chief of our police
department who has held the position
for fifteen years, read a paper on var
ious matters which had come under his
observation during the long time he
has been in office. He did not believe
there were nearly so many criminals
as many would have us believe. but
most of those who had committed
wrongs were victims of circumstances,
and not bad at heart. He told where
he thought the breeders of crime eX-
listed and gave an idea how to remedy
the evils; he went into the boy and
girl question very thoroughly and
pointed out where good work can be
done by our citizens as a whole. 1t
was an excellent paper and Mr.. Malone
received an ovation at its close. Quite
number of questions were asked
Mr.. Malone when he had finished, to
which he gave answers that were
satisfactory and to the point. A few
words were spoken with reference to
Mr.. Malones paper by Mayor Mar
quardt, Judge Marchetti and S. B.

l learned more in five minutes
about the workings of the old time
shell game at the Weston picnic Sat
urday, than I ever knew before. Ker-
rel Wood found out that I was in
town and hunted me up, after stalk
ing a bunch of cappers. While we
stood on the street corner talking. in
that learned and profound way for
which the Kernel is noted, up steps
a capper and pays years sub. to the
Kernels nefarious sheet. Presently
another guy paid him for a supposed
bunch Of butter wrappers, and a
third gink slipped him 8 bones for a
year back and one in advance. Twas
land office front alright, but the
coarseness of the stunt was revealed
half hour later when I met the
Kernel again and he panhandled me
for twobits to pay for a hot dog he
had bargained for at one of those
street grub joints.

taxi back to the hotel"
They started walking at o'clock
and for three hours they wandered
about the streets of Frisco, going no.
where in particular but just drifting
with the tide, At they were ready
to return to the hotel and Frank be-
gan looking for a taxi. They didn't
know where they were nor in which
direction lay their hotel. This start
ed an argument. Frank was certain
that ii was in one direction and his
bride was just as certain that it was
in the opposite, Finally they decided
to submit their dispute to a passer-
by.
Pardon me" said Frank to a
stranger, but could you tell me in
which direction is the Sutter IIotele"
The stranger looked at him very
oddly and then at his wife why.
Yes, he finally said, you're standing
directly in front of it."

Prof Hampton has a way of get
ting absent-minded at times, and so
i, wasn't very strange that when his
wife told him Saturday to get a so
cent pork roast for Sunday dinner that
he went down and called for a Is
cent pork roast. He got it, too,
though what the butcher though OF
him while he was cutting it must
have been anything but compliment
tary. When wrapped and tied it was
just big enough to fit comfortably
into a vest pocket, but the prof's pre-
occupation precluded any discovery of
his mistake until he presented it to
his wife. But" says the prof in
speaking of the incident, there is a
law of balance in all things. The
roast I gave my wife may have been
a bit undersized but the one she gave
me in return will last long time
