COUNCIL OF DEFENSE

The Marathon County Council of
Defense met in regular session on
Tuesday evening at the court house,
c. B. Bird, presiding. The chairman
announced that he had appointed cit
liens throughout the county as mem
bers of the advisory committee of
the Marathon War Fund
Bulletins from the State Council of
Defense on the wheat and potato stu
alton were read. The former re-
quested citizens to use -four from home
grown wheat to save on transportation,
and the latter urged the necessity of
buying your winter supply of potatoes
at once, as the crop is light and the
demand great.
w. R. Chellis of the Chamber of
Commerce, appeared before the Coun-
Gil, and talked upon the condition of
our merchants with reference to the
holiday trade. Heretofore, it has been
the custom to keep their stores open
for week or two previous to Christ
mas to give those who were unable to
purchase daytimes an opportunity to
do their trading. Mr.. Chellis said that
the merchants desired to open one
week this year before Christmas, and
if they did, the order as regards to
help and heat would be observed. All
it will require is the use of more
light. 1t was thought best to have
this matter thoroughly canvassed by
our merchants, and report later.
Mrs. w. H. Nablo stated that there is
to be a class in Home Nursing in
stituted in Wausau in charge of Mrs.
Joseph F. Smith, that it will be open
to all women and that its object is
to teach how to take care of the sick
at home. Owing to the absence of
nurses who have gone into the ser
vice of the government, much of this
work, of necessity, will have to be
done by those at home, and this
course is to prepare our women to do
the work intelligently. The classes
are to be held in the hall of the Wau-
sau Club. The Council gave its hearty
approval of the course planned.

Wars Oh today are won not by armies, but by ma

Will do that If necessary-but their sacrifice will be

What is their job? Their job is to fght-those boys
OF ours brothers and who have gone across the
seas Day and night they will stick to their job
Through snow and rain, heat and sun, they will fight
They know no eight-hour day. They have no Sundays
and no holidays. Always the job they brave the
rain of shells and the clouds of poison gas They will
oppose the enemy machine with their unprotected
Dodes necessary that the outposts Of freedom may
be defended and it may be, in the end extended"
THE job of those of us who remain at home is to fur
nish those boys of ours-our and brothers-with
the material wherewith to fight

No! Your civic pride, your national pride your own

then some to the Fourth Liberty Loan until your last
luxury is given up. Remember that the more bonds
you buy the fewer will die"
What! Shall you turn a deaf ear to the groans of
our wounded men, to their spirits pleading with you
to make your little sacrifices? Do you compare the
inconvenience you undergo by paying for Liberty Bonds
with the rackng pains, the burning wounds the
supreme sacrifices of our soldiers? Do Won beorudge

precious blood for their victorious advances against
