BOOSTER TRIP REALIZED
County Towns Visited-Also Merrill,
Amigo, Marshfield and
Grand Rapids.

Grand Rapids.
With horns, drums, and other noisy
instruments forty automobiles filled
with Wausau men left yesterday
morning for trip to boost the Mara
thon county fair of next We elk, August
% to 81.
Very early Monday morning men
began to appear on the court house
square with their horns and ready for
the big trip. Every man wore white
hat. The men generously gave one or
two concerts disturbing the sleep OF
drummers at the Hotel Bells. They
didn't seem to mind it, in fact they
got up and by eight they were watch
ing the slow process of getting start
ed with a degree of interest.
The men will return tonight after
having visited large number of small
Ncities and number of the larger ones
in this immediate vicinity.
The first day day was spent in mo-
toring to Merrill, Amigo, Aniwa, Bir-
namwood, Eland, Elderon, Rosholt
Stevens Point, and Grand Rapids. The
night was spent at the Rapids. Start
ing early this morning, Vesper, Ar
pin, Marshfield, Spencer, Unity, Colby,
Abbotsford, Athens, Stratford, Fen
wood, Edgar, Marathon City, and Mos
inee were visited. The party will en-
joy dinner at Mosinee this evening
and will then return to Wausau.
Before the party left w. R. Chellis
was highly pleased at the prospects
for a successful trip. He has re-
ceived word from a number of towns
along the route that the party would
be met. 1t is expected that the trip
will occasion a bigger visit to the
Marathon county fair by people
through the county and also by some
without the county.
This is the year for Marathon coun-
ty to realize the fact that she can
have big and successful fair if it
is worked for. Results cannot be Sc
cured without expending some effort
