To Mr.. and Mrs. Rasmus four

Funeral services for the infant son
Of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Lucas were
held at the Episcopal church on Fri
day morning last, conducted by Rev.
Geo. B. Van Waters, the remains be-
ing inferred in Masonic cemetery.
The sudden death of Frederick j.
Lucas is indeed sad and a severe
blow to his parents. He was one of
pair of twin boys born to Mr.. and
Mrs. Lucas little more than three
months ago and when called by death
was apparently in perfect health.
The cause of death will remain hid
den among those ine0paainable
things that happen at times during
the course of human events. In this
bereavement Mr.. and Mrs. Lucas have
the sincere sympathy of the entire
community.

Y. NJ. C. A. FUND

The Y. M. G. A. has fully demon
strated that it is a necessary ad-
junct at the battle front. 1t is a great
influence for good, and helps in way
that no other organization can-in
making the life of a soldier much
happier and contented 1t gives him
place 20 go that is in every way,
helpful, morally and otherwise. He
finds someone at the various build
ings who can give him sympathy, who
can direct steps along right paths;
where he can find good companionship
and good reading; where he can find
materials to write home, and many
who will take an interest in him;
where there are clean games and
sports; moving pictures, and victrola
entertainments, lectures, religious and
other meetings. 1t is a social center
where all delight to gather and it is
a great diversion in camp life.
Enormous sums Of money are spent
in buildings, constructed so they can
be moved from one place to another,
and many large automobile trucks are
used to convey building, furniture, ETC.,
to places which are the most conven-
lent.
A movement is on foot, conducted by
the National Y NJ. C. A. War Work
Council, to raise $300,000,00 to pro-
vide 200 army Y. M. c. A. buildings,
fully equipped and manned by 1,10O
experienced secretaries, to care for
a million men in the United States the
current year. 1t is propose to raise
100000 of this in Wisconsin, which
campaign will be conducted from the
21st to the 25th of May.
The State Council of Defense has
approved of the object and has asked
it's councils in so counties to receive
contributions and to forward same to
the state Y. M. C. A. treasurer.
The War Work Council of Wiscon-
sin contains the following named from
Wausau: G. c. Yawkey, A. H. thinner
man, Walter Alexandlr. - G. Flieth
and D. c. Everest. 1t is worthy cause
and everyone should give what they
can.
Last Saturday afternoon, Frank
West of Madison, came to Wausau and
was in consultation with a committee
appointed by G. B. Bird, president of
the Marathon County Council of De-.
tense, to carry on the work of solicita-
ton in Wausau, viz: A. H. thinner

Active work for raising funds was
commenced this morning.

FOREST FIRES
Northern Wisconsin Has Been a Hot
Place the Past Week.

Owing to the very dry weather.
many forest fires have been raging in
northern Wisconsin for the past ten
days, and considerable damage has re-
suited to standing timber, logs, pulp
wood, etc. The Rhinelander New
North says of the fires in that section:
MANY settlers have been forced to
fight fires to save their homes. AS
near as can be ascertained no build
ings have been destroyed. Several
lumber concerns have crews out en-
deavoring to check the flames and
it is reported that in some places the
fire is under control. Rain is sorely
needed as the long dry spell has
made the woods dry as finder.
West of Rhinelander the fires have
been fiercest and it is said that the
country around Woodboro suffered Sc
verely. Wednesday afternoon the
Stole Lumber company in Tripoli sent
call to this city for fire engine but
the local department could not re-
spond as it has no engine. The vii
lage was in danger, according to the
report.
Bad fires have also prevailed up the
Wisconsin river and the home of Her
man Fetke had a narrow escape from
destruction Sunday. South of this
city, around Lake Julia, threatening
brush fires have alarmed the farmers.
The Hanson school house west of
Rhinelander, on the Woodboro road,
was threatened by fire Wednesday, af-
ternoon.
Heavy smoke has hung over this
city for number of days, shutting
out the sun, and giving the appear
ance of London fog. The same con
dition, according TO newspaper reports
exists everywhere in northern Wis
consin.
There is every reason to believe that
the wild berry crop in Oneida and 9TH
er. northern Wisconsin counties will
be of little consequence this year ow-
ing to the forest fires. Old slashings
where raspberry and blackberry
brushes usually abound have been
burned over and fires have swept
through BURBERRY swamps."
