COUNCIL MEETING
Resolutions to Improve Alley Be-
tween Fulton and Clinton Streets
-Sidewalks-RoOf on City Hall
Shrubbery That EndangeEs Lives.

At the meeting of the council last
Monday night there seemed to be ma
terial enough for consideration to
keep the councilmen busy for two
meetings, but it was material that
did not produce much opportunity
for definite action and consequently,
while the council had the work to
do and the time to spend, there was
not much to show for the two hours
of strenuous session.
Mr.. Allen Shade was present to
explain that it would be necessary
to cut the inscriptions on the base
of the monument in North Park in
stead of placing it on a bronze tab
let and asked that the council per-
nit this change, request that was
granted. Mr.. Shade also brought up
the matter of the necessary repairs
on the base, which must be attended
to before the bronze figure is placed
thereon; this last matter was re-
ferred to the Board of Trustees of
Public Affairs.
A resolution to improve the alley
between North Fulton and Clinton
streets from the north line of Depot
street to the south line of West Elm
street by sewer and paving was pre-
sented to the council and under sus-
pension of the rules passed through
the several readings and passed.
Reports from Sewer committee and
Building committee were received and
discussed. The matter of roofing ma
terial for the city hall was another
item that was discussed.
The committee on Traffic Regula-
tions made partial report, which
was read, discussed, and suggestions
made.
Sidewalks on Cedar street was an
other item that was brought up, dis
cussed and referred to Sidewalk COM
mittee.
Mr.. Harold H. Ham called the at
tention of the council to the death
trap formed by the high shrubbery
north of the N. Y. C. railway sta
ton and next to the T. & I. track
Mr.. Ham stated that he witnessed
three near casualties on Decoration
day, when three ladies came very
near being struck by T. & 1. cars
as they stepped on the track from the
dense foliage which is so high and
dense that it is impossible to see
either east or west.
The council instructed the street
commissioner to have the shrubbery
! on city property trimmed so as to
avoid further trouble.
Street committee reported on
needed repairs on West Leggett street
and Shoop avenue.
The clerk and Finance committee
with the help of the mayor spent
some time on the preparation of the
annual budget.
Claim ordinance was passed and
council adjourned.

PRIZE ESSAYS
Written BY Pupils Of Eighth Grade
Of wauseon Schools Under the
Auspices Of Local W. C. T. U. =
The Business Mans and the Sol.
dier's Opinion Of Alcohol.

During the closing weeks of the
school year, the W. c. 7. u. of Wau-
seon offered to the pupils of the
Eighth grade, through their teacher,
Mrs. Bartlett. prizes for the two best
essays on "The Business Mans and
Soldiers Opinions Of Alcohol" Mrs.
Bartlett, perceiving the educational
value Of such a contest, had all the
pupils. of the Eighth grade write es-
says on the topic, and from the es-
says submitted six of the best. These
six were submitted to three judges
who, acting separately, without con-
ferring with one another and with
out knowing who the writer's were,
judged these papers on a uniform
schedule.
When the sealed reports of the
judges were opened it was found that
they all had agreed upon the same
essay as standing first; it was the es-
say written by Helen Reichert. An
averaging Of the grades given by the
judges resulted in placing the essay
written by Ruth Snyder second. The
Wauseon w. G. T. u. thereupon
awarded to Helen Reichert the first
prize of $500 and to Ruth Snyder
the second prize of $500. The local
WI C. T. u, in carrying on this con-
test has contributed valuable service
to the community in the way of Civ
ing an opportunity for real educa.
ton. along the line Of the results OF
alcohol as a beverage in the indus
trial and military fields of activity
and we are glad to publish both es-
says as sample of what bright girls
and boys find to be the actual facts
when they investigate this subject or
their own account:

a few short weeks ago. To this union
were born four sons, all of whom
found it duty or comfort to be with
or near the aged parents in their de-
clining years.
By sturdy endurance and applica-
tion, Mr.. Gorsuch and his faithful
companion have done their full share
in the improvement of the home of
their choice-redeeming it from pi-
oneer conditions and making it "to
blossom like the rose"
He was converted and united with
the Christian church at the age of
IS, and has lived a consistent Chris
tian life ever since, attending divine
services whenever conditions and
health would permit.
We knew him as an upright citi-
zen, an earnest friend, good neigh
Dor; ever helpful to those in need of
help-and such qualifications in any
one form a monument more lasting
than marble.
The funeral services were held at
the home of his son, Edwin, at p.
m. on Monday, June 8, 1918, and in
terment in Wauseon cemetery.

EPHRAIM GORSuCH

Once more the hand of death has
taken from our midst a man promi-
nent in the agricultural affairs of our
community in the person of Ephraim
Gorsuch, who died early Saturday
morning, June 1, 1918.
AS will be seen, Mr.. Gorsuch had
passed well on beyond the fourscore
MARYLAND how we'll he had lived is
attested by the respect and esteem in
which he has always been held. Born
in Wayne county, Ohio, Dec. 20, 1885,
he came, at the age of 19 years, with
his parents to the then wilderness of
Fulton county and settled on a tract
of land, now a fine farm, near the
village of Wauseon, and has been a
resident of the community almost
continuously ever since.
Coming as he did of sturdy pioneer
stock, he was Injured to the tolls and
privations of the early settlers -. a
condition which proved a great asset
later in life.
Mr.. Gorsuch was Industrious and
saving and was singularly fortunate
and successful in his chosen profess
sion of farming. His habits were
good and exemplary, and he was
known as one of our best and most
substantial citizens.
Early in 1862 he was married to
Anna Maria Cantleberry, who pre-

little booklet printed especially for
Mothers Day, and / think it is real

wish that could have been home
for Easter and visited with the rest.
Mary said she was up the next Sun
day, and was glad she paid you all
visit. l surely wish that / could
have been with her, for it is so lone
some for her to take that ride on the
street car. But you save that wine,
and some day we can have it for what
Dad put it away for, and hope soon.
l am feeling fine now. Just got
over little cold. Took some medi-
cine which l brought along and it
fixed me up fine. Mary wants me
to send her request for some things
which she had ready to send, but
could not. l have the request all
made up and signed. She said she
had some medicine in it for me and
it will surely come in handy. AS long
as person can keep ovt of the hos
pital here the better he is off. Got a
letter from Farley and Helen. He
said he had a machine and every
thing was fine. He also said that he
was going to take Mary and Chris

evening. Mary said it was real nice
