FOUND DEAD ON
KITCHEN FLOOR MONDAY

VIM. Reinecke of the town of Mara
thon was found dead on his kitchen
floor Monday afternoon by young
frankie Hack, who had gone over for
the purpose of turning Nj. Reinecke's
grindstone for him as agreed upon the
previous day. The town board was
notified, and the town board notified
Coroner w. G. Meilahn, of Wausau,
who came out Monday evening to-
gether with District Attorney e. E.
Johnson and County Sheriff, C. N.
Goerling for an investigation. Inas-
much as death appeared to be due to
natural causes, no inquest was held
and the body was taken to Coroner
Meilahn's undertaking room at Wau-
sau and prepared for burial The fun
eral took place here yesterday after
noon, funeral services being conduct
ed by Rev E. Walther at ST. Mathews
Lutheran church of which deceased
was a member.
Death was apparently caused by
apoplexy. The exact time when he
| died is not known. There seems to be
a difference of opinion on this ques-
ton, some thinking that he was struck
lby apopleXy Sunday evening and 9TH
! ers who claim that he died Monday
forenoon.
He attended chuch services here
Sunday afternoon. He was found pros
trate on the floor before the kitchen
stove with the stove uncovered and
pieces of wood scattered about his
corpse, indicating that he was over
taken by death while about to light
his fire in order to prepare his supper
or breakfast as the case may be-
The deceased was sixty-one years
old. He had lived on his farm in the
town of Marathon since 1888. For
many years he lived alone, his wife
being an inmate of the Marathon coun-
ty asylum. He is survived by one
STEP daughter, Mrs. r. Mathlae of the
town of Rib Falls.-Marathon Times.

DEMONSTRATION

Last Tuesday afternoon. an inter
esting meeting was held at the coun-
Gil chamber in the city hall under
the auspices of the Marathon County
Council of Defense. Miss Emma
Conley and Miss Evelyn Jensen of
the University Extension division at
Madison were present, and gave a
demonstration of the cold pack
method of canning. This is the latest
and most improved way of canning
at the present time and does away
with much work and time necessary
in the old methods of canning. The
drying and storing of fruits and vege-
tables was generally discussed. 1t
was very good meeting and largely

SATAN AND THE RAILROADS

The School Board at Lancaster.
Ohio, in 1928. refused to permit the
school house to be used for the dis
cussion of the question as to whether
railroads were practical or not, and
the matter was recently called to
mind by an old document that reads
as follows:
"You are at liberty and welcome to
use the school house to debate all
proper questions in. but such things as
railroads and telegraphs are impossi-
bilities and rank infdelity. There is
nothing in the word of God about
them. II God had designed that His
Intelligent creatures should travel
at the frightful speed of fifteen miles
an hour, by steam, He would have
clearly foretold it through His holy
prophets. 1t is a device of Satan
TO lead immortal souls down, down
TO Hell and degredstion."

Y. M. C. A. NOTES

Word comes from the Wausau Bows
at the Y. M. C. A. Camp at Chain
o. Lakes, that the camp, while not
so large this year as last, is the best
ever in point of real sport and spirit.
While there has been more or less
rain, yet the weather on the whole,
has been so delightful that the boys
have not word but of praise. The
camp will close today, Tuesday and
the boys will be home this evening,
on the $3.50 Milwaukee train. r. H.
Starkey will return with the boys
but Mr.. Hyde will go direct to the
Y. M. c. A. summer school at Lake
Geneva, where he will take up a two
weeks course ON boys work He will
return to Wausau the latter part of
the month.
The indoor base ball league being
played on the Y. M. C. A. grounds
every Tuesday and Thursday even
ing at o'clock is proving very inter-
esting. Last week Tuesday the Meth
odists beat the st. Paul's team 10 to
|3, while on Thursday night the st.
Pauls beat the Universalists, Is to Z.
Tonight the game between the Uni
versalists and the Methodists will
prove an interesting exhibition as

The Gun0er Meetings.

At the Baptist church last evening
Evangelist Gunder preached on the
subject Drawing Wages" taking as
text Rom. 6:23: THE wages of sin
is death, but the gift Of God is eternal
life thru Jesus Christ, our Lord Mi.
Gunder said in part:
two questions must always ne
settled between employer and en-
ploye before any intelligent labor con-
tract can be made; the question OF the
work to be done and the wages to be
paid. Some of you who have been
blessed with this worlds goods. ana
have been independent, may say that
you do not work for wages. wish to
say that every individual is in one
sense a servant and drawing wages.
"Who is Your master? You can not
serve God and mammon. You can't
be on both sides. You shall reap as
you SOW. How aretyou sowing? lot
Of YOU folks, when talk to YOU, think
you are pretty good. Not good
enough for heaven maybe. but still
pretty good You say you are not real
bad. Certainly not bad enough for
hell. Do you expect God to create a
middle ground for you? Why don't
YOU come clear over on the side of
God? You can't stride the line. 1t is
definite one between the sinner and
the saint
Two classes bother me-the fellow
who is ready and willing to do any
thing in the church, and who won't
pay his debts. The other is the fellow
who lives straight and pays his debts,
then stands on his dignity and deties
God. There is mighty little difference
between the two. Why not be broad
enough to get right with God and then
get right with men? There should be
no half way business about the things
of God. Either get over the fence or
don't stay on it.
"In temperance work I always found
three classes. One would be against
liuuor tooth and nail. Another would
be Just as strong for it. and the third
was always neutral. No one knew
where he stood What fine thing II
would be If no one were on the fence

About a month ago, the lad
left here on his bicycle and rode
to Huron, S. D. He learned there
that he could enlist at Sioux
Falls, and accordingly sold his
bicycle to get money to pay his
expenses to Sioux Falls, where
he enlisted and sold his clothes
for money to keep him until mis-
first army pay day.
From Sioux Falls he was sent
to st. Louis and later transfer
red to Fort Smelling. When Ray
mond felt that he was securely
enlisted he wrote his parents,
telling them where he had been
and what he had done. Mr.. ano
Mrs. Kyar went. to Fort Smelling
last week to visit him, and al
though they could demand his
release on account of being un.
der age, they were willing to let
Raymond remain, as he was per-
fectly satisfied to do. He will
be of age within a few weeks.

THERE'S ONE WAY YET
REMAINING.

America was confronted with
two ways in which it might have
stopped the war in Europe, but
the time for the one has passed
and the other may come in time.
The first would have been to
stop at once the export of goods
Of all kinds to the warning ma
tions-munitions of war, food
stuffs, and all manner of goods.
That would, you will say, nave
been a harsh and inhuman meas
ure, but would it have been any
more inhuman than the whole
sale murder, starvation and de-
vastation that has since been in
progress across the water? 1t
would indeed have been cruel,
but the agony would not have
been so long drawn out, as the
warning nations would have had
to close up shop soon after the
help was withdrawn from the
United States. There was at no
time, however, any danger of
such a course being taken, for
the reason that those of this ma
ton who are fattening on the
war profits would not have al
lowed it. Money to that class
of aristocratic parasites is of far
more Importance than the lives
of the rabble that constitute the
armies of the nations.
And that chance was lost.
The remaining means for stop
ping the war is to send not a
few Americans soldiers to the
battlefront, but a million OF
more of our very best fighters.
"Place the flag on the firing
line" sounds very fine, but we
must do more if we expect to
win-and win we must. There
must be enough American SOL
diers on the firing line to carry
the flag through to a whooping
victory, or it were far better
that we not make the attempt.
We are in the fight, a fight for
humanity, and we must make it
