CONSERVATION
WINDOW DISPLAYS

The windows of our grocery stores
have been attractively arranged with
conservation displays the past week
by the teachers and children of, the
seventh and eighth grades of our pub
lie and parochial schools. This work
is being conducted in a contest-like
way, and the children are competing
for the best results. A committee will
judge the windows. The purpose of
this is to bring before the people the
dire necessity of food economy, and
the various kinds of foods which can
be easily made of the new flour sub
stitutes. In many instances the con-
struction work was handled by the
boys of the manual training depart
ments, while the girls of the domestic
science departments prepared the diff
ferent foods on display. 1t is hoped
to have these window displays bring
to every home in the city a palmer
explanation of what conservation
means to this country and what IL
really is.
The following schools have charge

PLAY AT ST. MARY'S AUDITORIUM

The three-act comedy, Hunting An
f1eiress" was presented by the young
people of the sodality of St. Mary's
church, Sunday and Monday even
ings in the auditorium of st. Mary's
school house. This play was given I'M
der the personal direction of Frank
Winninger There were a large num-
Der in the cast, and music by an or
chestra. The latest songs and dances
were also seen in this comedy.
Wausaus abundant musical and
dramatic talent and ability to CO.
operate for the production of a COM
munity entertainment of the first class
was demonstrated again with great
success. That the public appreciates
productions of this kind needs no
stronger testimonial than the large
audiences on both nights. Generous
applause and repeated curtain calls
indicated the enthusiasm of the audi
ence.
The task of directing a production
similar to this comedy assumed by
Frank Winninger, is no light task,
success. To achieve the results he did
in short series of rehearsals is a
testimonial to his ability as a manager
and producer.
Credit for the triumphant presenta-
ton is shared by all who took part
in it, but their number extends into
large figures, and many were in en-
semble numbers and individual men
tons cannot be given due to limited
space.

A BIG LOSS

Student activities at Beloit College
received big blow when Albert Mohr,
a Wausau boy, was called to service
in Base Hospital Unit IL, short time
ago. Mohr was a senior this year
and had returned to college with the
hope of completing his college course
before being called to service. He
was one of the most active men in
college athletics and student affairs
that Beloit has ever had He was a
holder of the Bacon scholarship,
granted t. worthy self-supporting
students on the basis of character
and scholarship and paying 5000 per
year. He was business manager of
the Round Table, the semi-weekly
student publication, and president of
his fraternity, Phi Kappa Psi. With
the depleted athletic material charac-
teristic of wartimes last fall, Mohr
turned to with a spirit, and altho not
having before taken time for foot ball
in college contributed his services to
the successful team that resulted. A
similar situation was met in basket
ball and used it to advantage on the
varsity, winning his "B" there as in
foot ball.

EDGAR DELEGATES NEW
VILLAGE HALL

Tuesday was a gala day for Edgar,
for on this day the handsome new
village hall of our progressive west
ern neighbor was dedicated. The
dedicatory address was made by c. B.
Bird of Wausau and the music was
furnished by the Fourth Regiment
band of Wausau. Several of our Mar
athonites who attended the dance at
Edgar Monday evening are loud in
their praises and admiration of this
new edifice of Edgar. Edgar, like
all small cities and villages, has its
trials and troubles to solve its NUM-
cipal problems and to keep burning
its lights of civic pride and progress
siveness, but the erection of this new
village hall, its new bank building,
installation of the electric light and
power system, the same as that of
Marathon gives new evidence of the
progressive hustling spirit and civic
pride of the business men of Edgar
in particular, and its residents in
general. The new village hall OF
Edgar, we understand, was put up at
a cost of $4,000 dollars.-Marathon

SEW FOR FRANCE.

IF you can't knit for America, you
can sew for France"
This is the new slogan of the Ameri-
can Fund for French Wounded in its
campaign to make and distribute at
least 10000 Washington bags among
the refugees of President Poincare's
republic this spring.
And there is this addenda to the
slogan:
"If you are not proficient in either
art, you can contribute money for the
puchase of these comfort kits, which
are so soraly needed and so greatly
appreciated
A contribution of only $4,000 would
release 700 of these Washington bags
for immediate shipment. They were
made up by Chicago department
store and are being held until suffici-
ent money is subscribed to defray the
cost of manufacture.
The second allotment of Washing
ton bags that have been sent to France
an the last six weeks are now being
distributed, but there were but 500
IN this consignment, and even 10000
Will TALL far short of the present need
I'm the distribution of Washington
bags, the American Fund for French
Wounded has extended it's zone of
operations" said Mrs. c.. c.. YaWkev.
chairman of the local committee of
the organization. mot only are our
agents in France supplying comfort
kits to the women and children living
close to the battle lines, but we also
have made arrangements for distribu-
of
900 to 1000 refugees, released from
French territory now held by the
Germans, are pouring in daily
These refugees are mostly old wo-
men and little children, who have
dragged out their pitiful days under
the pitiless rule of the Hun since
the outbreak of the war. They are
the living representatives of tragedy
and pathos. Their only consolation is
that they are among their own people
once more. To them, the Washington
bags, containing clothing and toilet
articles, are truly a buoy in a tossing
sea of misery.
"The German guns, now trained on
the towns in the vicinity of Nancy,
where our own troops are holding Sec
tors of the fighting line also have in
creased the demand for Washington
bags. Evacuation is the general
spring order. The French people are
being moved back beyond the range
of the artillery fire. They are leaving
shells of houses and cellars that have
served as homes for many miserable
months. In their hasty exodus, they
can take little with them. The Wash
ington bags, however, provide them
with some of the essentials of life.
Compared to subscribing to the
Liberty Loan, the Red Cross, the Y. NJ
G. A. Huts, the making or purchase
of a Washington bag is a little thing,
but the adage, 1T is the little things
that count not only holds true in
war time but the truth is emphasized
when the plight of the French refu-
gees-unparalleled in all history-is
considered.
-Four dollars buys woman's
Washington bag. The childrens size
costs $3.50. Instructions for making
and description of the contents will
be furnished by the local committee"

RED CROSS NOTES

me American Red Cross is covering
more activities than most of us have
any conception of. Considering Red
cross work in terms of sweaters.
socks, surgical bandages, hospital
needs, etc., is but very small part
OF the work done by this relief orr
ganization. Following are a few ac-S
tlvlt1es covered by the Red Cross:
Looking after the families of the
soldiers in need of help, in a ouiet
way, giving them GOOD advice. en-
couragement, sympathy, as we'll as
financial aid. This organization looks
after the welfare of our soldiers be-
lore going into the trenches and upon
their return from the front, having
lodging, food, baths and a place of
rest for them. The families of the
soldiers are also supplied with fuel,
1000 and shelter, where needed. so
that the lighting soldiers will not have
TO worry about their families while
IN active duty. Every man. woman
and child, who out of his or her own
heart here at home gives to support
the Red Cross is helping our cause
from an angle of attack that is new
IN modern war. 1t is the angle of
brotherhood. 1t gives the soldiers
added courage to know that their
people back home are being carefully
looked after as to their needs. And
every dollar put into the Red Cross
makes not only for victory in this
war, but for everlasting peace be-
tween the great nations now fighting
together in this war.
School dic+r;ot No -
Plelne, near Stratford, has sent in
1910 TO the Red Cross headquarters,
as the result of the Junior Red Cross
campaign. Miss Nellie Fosdick is
teacher in this school.
Boxes of finished articles from the
Red Cross rooms continue going to
the Central Division.
The various Ladies' Aid societies
OF our churches have been taking an
active part in Red Cross work, as
have various lodge societies, and their
assistance in this worthy work has
meant great deal to the Mara hon
Chapter. Many of the societies have
been meeting for all day sessions at
the different churches or homes, and
have taken their lunches with them.
ACCOMPLISH
a great deal of work in day.
Junior Red Cross subscriptions have
come in as follows: Maple Grove
school district No. 1, town of Ham
burg, $500; Mcmillan school district
No. 3, town of Mcmillan, $500; Scho-,
field, 1925.
st. Stephens church of this city
sent in donation of $500 to the
Red Cross the past week.
The M0sinee Red Cross branch sent
in layette of babies garments yes
terday.
Four hundred property bags are
to be made by the local Red Cross
now for the war hospitals. These
are used to keep the personal prop
erty of the soldier during the time
he is in theh hospital. Remnants of
cloth are asked for in pieces of 12x36
or 24x1S to make these bags.

ONE YEAR OF WAR AND THE
LIBERTY LOAN

Last Saturday, April 9Th, was
Liberty Day" the anniversary of the
day on which war was declared
against Germany, and flags were fly
ing from about every mast and dis
played from the homes of our city.
The colors were in evidence every
where. 1t was also the day on which
the Third Liberty Loan drive was
started. c. S. Gilbert, county chair
man, and E. c. DawIey, city chair
man, had hundreds out getting sub
scriptions for Liberty Loan and the
drive started ont with a vim, which
gave evidence that we would go over
the top at flying pace However,
there is much word ahead to be done
to raise the amount set for Mara

THE CASUALTY LISTS

How do you read the casualty listS2
 Do you begin at the top. turn to the right hand column and sean the heroes by home towns. or do you look at the names. and. meeting familiar one, look to the ad- dress to see if it is the boy you know; and. ]. it is. then read the subhcad to see his fate.
 Perhaps you start with the slightly wounded and read up to the deeper tragc- dies where you glance giugcrIy as on dam ecrous ground. hoping and full of faith that none of tine names there will bring you face to face with a supreme sacrifice made by one close and dear to you
 When the list has been read without amy start of recognition you feel happy but only for a second because you know that every name represents a splendid Am crcm wEo has given his blood for you here at home. You share the grief and the pride of the home folks who know those names with heavy hearts.
 Are you worthy of their Sacriice2
 You are not worthy if you do not give the best that is in you in backing them up. Those boys were asked to stop the German drive on Paris They did it and in addi- tiou drove the Huns beyond their starting point toward the Rhine. You are asked to more than double your last Liberty Loan investment because the government needs
