CONSERVE THE GAME.
(Daw wson News.)

Dawson NeWS.)
 Many caribou reported in the country west or Dawson is understood that many hunters going out to get the game. They entitled to certain number of caribou under the regulations. The ad ministrator and the Yukon Council have agreed to suspend that portion of the regulations making 1t ar offense of game during the closed season pro vided it lawfully obtained during the open season The new regulation is aimed at helping the country the problem during the present stringency in the meat market of the world and is wise pro vision At the time however Yukon needs the game for food and not animal should be al lowed be killed that is not utilized.
 In of the previous big treks of caribou across country it reported, some hunters shot the ami mas down promiscuously and let many drag away in the wilderness to die the miserable death of crp ple while of others that killed out right left to rot.
 While Yukon is justified in using it's big game for helping in emergencies it should do it's utmost to conserve the herds. The time may when those herds will be few and far between
 It also will be we'll at this time to take vigorous to wipe out the and other brgands of the wilds which understood becoming great menace in Yukon. Coyotes reported multiplying rapidly, and they the worst and most destructive enemies of the big game.

THE WRECK OF MARIPOSA.
Anchorage Times.


 The loss of the steamship Mariposa adds another wreck to the long list of vessels which have been lost along the Alaskan coast Although the dispatches yesterday failed to state the of the wreck 1t safely be laid to insufficient aids to navigation which has been the cause of ninetenths of all the Alaskan wrecks.
 The loss of the Marposa at this time is distinct hardship for Alaskans She of the best steam ships running to the north and with the present ty of tonnage it is almost certainty that unless she be raised it will be impossible to get another se of equal tonnage to replace her.
 The only fortunate feature of the wreck the fact that lives lost From all reports it is gathered that the behavior of the passengers was admirable and there signs of panic when the vessel struck.
 On account of the impossibiy of getting yes ses built it is probable that efforts will be spared to raise the vessel and expense will not figure in the The only consideration will be the possi biity of raising her. As she going at less than half speed at the time of the accident it is likely she not badly damaged and if the water is not too deep, she may again be in the Anchorage har bOr.

EACH BRITISHER IS
 ALLOWED ONE POUND
 OF MEAT DIET DAILY

BEHIND BRITISH LINES IN FRANCE, Dec 10.-The British army ration scale allowes one pound of meat to each man daily to the troops in the trenches, and threequarters of pound to those at home. It further requires each soldier at the front to carry pound of meat in his kit.
 The measures by which an army equal to one-fifth the male popula- tion of Great Britain before the war has been supplied with meat on this scale, amount to something like a revolution in the technique of army supply.

FLAGS TAKEN

On Saturday night the flags of Bert
Schwanberg, Fred Wiechmann, Wilke
Bros. and from residences all along
East Jackson street, and others in
our city were torn off in front of their
buildings and carried away This is
a serious offense and a disreputable
piece of business. If necessary, detec-
tives should be set to work and bring
the guilty ones to justice. Other
wise more serious crimes may be
committed. Every city in the United
States is being guarded. At Neills-
vile, the other day, an attempt was
made to set fire to the armory in
that city. Why not organize a COM
pany of older citizens at home for the
protection of property? If there are
those in our midst bent upon mischief,
much damage might be done. The
time is ripe to call a halt when the
flag is desecrated.

EASTER SUNDAY


Easter Sunday dawned beautifully
upon Wausau and ideal spring weather
was had in this city throughout the
entire day. Easter was observed here
as in previous years, and probably
with more fmpressiyeness on account
of the serious warning conditions pre-
vailing over this world today.
Our churches were all well filled
during the services of the holy day,
and the places of worship were pref
tily decorated with palms, ferns, and
flowers, the Easter lilies, the flower of
purity and spiritual beauty, FREEDOM
mating. Special sermons appropriate
to the significance of Easter were
preached from the pulpits of the var
ious churches by the pastors. The holy
Easter season, is the time of the year
when this world celebrates the re-
clamation of Christ from the cata-
comb. Easter music was rendered by
the choirs and by individuals and in
some of our churches Easter programs
were given by the children. On Easter
Sunday evening cantatas were given
in some of the churches. In all church
es happy voices hailed the joyous Eas-
ter greetings that death reigns no
more. The Lord hath risen! Life the
grave doth scorn."
The very pleasant Easter custom OF
sending Easter cards to relatives and
friends has been kept up for many
years. Eggs have always been asso-
ciated with the day as symbolic of the
resurrection. Candy eggs are always
popular. Flowers and growing plants
are especially appropriate to Easter
Easter lilies being always in demand
Many children in Wausau were III
early Easter morning hunting the
prettfIy tinted Easter eggs the Easter
rabbits had left for them in secure
places. The children look forward tc
this Easter pleasure each year will
added interest.
The Easter season is also a home
coming season. Many OF our younG
people attending colleges and univer
stiles and others spent the day in theil
homes here. 1t is a very quietly OBJ
served day, as is the Lenten season
and especially Holy Week.
Faster Monday was observed b!
some of our churches yesterday will

The Lenten season for 1917 has
passed and social activities will agaiI
be taken up after period of quiet
