MAKES GREAT SUCCESS OF
LIP SCHOOL FOR DEAF
Miss Helen Gebhart, Formerly of
Wausau, Has Established School
In Chicago

Miss Helen Gebhart, a daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. John Gebhart of this city,
who for a number of years was a
teacher of the deaf and dumb at Mil
waukee and formerly resided in Wau-
Sau, has made a great success of a
school of lip reading she established
some time ago in Chicago. With an
office in the Fine Arts building and
several competent assistants, she in
structs in the unbelievable system of
lip reading.
Students from all parts of the coun-
try attend the school. The instruction
given enables the deaf to read lips
and to know what companions are
saying.
Miss Gebhart is a member of the AL
trusa club of Chicago, an organization
composed of professional women. 1t
is the sister organization of the Ro-
tary club and stands for the same
ideals and principles. Each profess
sion is represented by one person. At
a recent meeting Miss Gebhart gave a
talk and demonstration of her work,
showing how lip reading opens up a
new life for the deaf and gives them
a greater interest The progress of
Miss Gebhart is heartily applauded by
her WauSau friends. Miss Gebhart
visited her parents last week, coming
to the city especially to attend the
funeral of Mrs. Robert Kickbusch.

VICTORY BOND Statesmen
RECEIVE FINAL WORD

Victory Liberty Bond statesmen
crowded the city hall yesterday after
noon at p. m, when meeting was
called so that these representatives OF
the United States government might
receive final instructions on the COM
paign now entered. c. c. Yawkey,
chairman of the city committee, ad-
dressed the statesmen, instructing them
as to the allotments of individuals in
this loan as compared to those OF
previous loans, and calling on the
statesmen to give every minute of free
time to the urgent work of selling
bonds. 1t is expected that the quota
for the city of Wausau, will be reached
by May 3rd, one week before the con-
clusicn of the national campaign.
Don't be surprised when you find a
salesman calling on you-if you can
see your way clear to buying one or
more bonds on time installments, do
so. We must all make this final cam
paign an unQuestionable success. If
you cannot, give the Victory committee
the reason. No one will be asked to
buy bonds VINO 1t is known cannot
and should not.

WISCONSIN WAR HISTORY
COMMITTEE

The following has been received
from the Wisconsin War History COM
mittee, which is timely note of warn
ing;
To Chairmen and Secretaries of Coun-
ty War History Committees:
Complaint is made from several
sources of various commercial enter
prises coming into counties and calling
upon the public for soldier pictures
and other war data for the purpose OF
publishing war histories or albums.
In some instances they have sought
to convey the impression that the
State Historical Society, or the state
or federal government, has given rec
ognition or approval to their enter
prises. This is not true in so far as
the State Historical Society or the
State War History committee are con-
cerned, and under such circumstances
1T seems proper that county history
committees should be informed of this
fact IN order that they may not be
later mortified at possibly having been
made the victims of misrepresentation
When the State War History Commit
tee gives its endorsement to any pub
fishing project it will do so in direct
and open fashion so that there need
be no misunderstanding of the fact.
The State War History Committee
would suggest the exclusion of the
public from the war history collections.
Insofar as reasonable information and
material is desired by officials entitled
to 1t, or by the schools, or by the press
for legitimate publicity, the commit
tees will no doubt furnish it, but it
may not be out of place to call atten-
ton to the possibility of being i'm
posed upon by outside commercialism
which has no interest in the commun-
lty beyond its exploitation.
A. V. BARTON, Director.

WAUSAU BOY MAKES MARK
TOWARDS END OF WAR

Second Lieut. Claude B. Taugher, a
son of P. ]. Taugher of Marathon City,
and formerly of Wausau made his mark
towards the end of the war, and
through his daring exploits won the
Distinguished Service Cross. His
record is one which will endure, ac-
cording to a letter received by the
Pilot. At Bayonville, France, on No
vember 2, 1918, Lieut.. Taugher, it was
declared, led his platoon in a daring
advance, when enemy dugouts were
surrounded before the occupants had
time to escape. They were given no
opportunity to organize to resist the
American Marines. Lieut.. Taugher
was seriously wounded in the ankle
but nevertheless, stuck to his work,
refusing to be removed. Wausau
friends congratulate the lieutenant as
we'll as his friends-they always have
known that Claude possessed the
goods" for just this sort of thing.
Lieut.. Taugher attended Wausau High
school several years ago, later going
to Carroll College. He was well
known as a foot ball star.

Wisconsin soldiers, sailors and mar.
ines. 1t is known that Gov. Philinn
Iavors bond issue ON the subject.

en- 10 pass on the constitutionality
OF the means to be used to raise the
money is composed of Senators A. HI
wilkinson, Bayfield,; c. B. Bird, Wau-
sau, and Theodore Bentley, Sheboygan
and Assemblyman Carl Kurtenacker
Lacrosse, and T. S. Nolan, Janesyille
The committee includes the chairmen
OF the finance and judicial committees
with Senator C.. B. Bird
The general features of what the
Dill should contain have been gener-
ally agreed upon. The minimum pay
men should be $50 as suggested by
the soldiers committee from Milwau-
kee and the maximum should be $40
month for the number of months
IN the service without regard to the
Official rank of the man. There will
be feature that the pay which would
have gone to men killed in service
shall go to their legal heirs.
There is some doubt regarding the
educational feature of the bill. The
idea OF Senator Nye is that his bill
will be. incorporated as one phase OF
the big measure and that the boys who
were not members of the S. A. T. c.,
Will be given an opportunity to work
out their regular educational course,
which was interfered with by their
call to the service. Either of the plans
will be optional.
The bill which the committee is
taking practically in toto was that
suggested by Senator Pullen, Fond
du Lac. 1t was his measure that sug-
gested the $40 a month arrangement.

SUPREME SACRIFICE MADE
BY TWO

The Wausau Motor Car Co., from
which eight men enlisted in the United
States army is the proud possessor
now of an honor roll-a work of art
and labor wrought by P. V. o. Van
Vechten. 1t is not a large one, but for
all time will prove the record of which
the company should feel proud. Pill
lars about which are draped Ameri-
can flags, painted in red, white and
blue, stand at each side. In the CEN
ter is simply painted Honor Roll,"
directly under which come two names,
grouped, and star-the two of the
eight who made the supreme sacrifice,
Edward Cayo, Schofeld, and John F.
Miller. Several of the other boys are
back from war-and the company has
welcomed them back with open arms.
Eric Gehrke, Alfred Laningan, Louis
E. Thon, Jess Billings are returned,
while Walter Busse and Edward Um-
hoefer are still in the service.

WAUSAU PILOT TEIIRTY-TEREE YEARS AGO

the reunion of the Iron Brigade. the
sixteenth and seventeenth.
| Last Friday the Opera House associ-
alton of Wausau lost their frail hold
upon the beautiful structure. which
they have reared in our city. On
that day the property was sold at
| sheriff's sale to William Spence. of
Milwaukee, for $4,000. This sale was
made in an action commenced last
year by Curtis Brothers and Company
TO foreclose lien for building mater
lals, which they had upon the Opera
House. Shortly after the action was
commenced about forty other lien
claimants were made parties to the
action-the aggregate amount of all
the lien claims being about $3.50, 900.
Sometime afterwards, James McCros-
sen, Alexander Stewart and Walter
Alexander, commenced an action for
the foreclosure of land contract be-
tween themselves and the association
Tor the lots upon which the house is
built. These two actions were con-
tinued along until this summer. when
Judgment was obtained in the last
named action for about S$7,700. The
various lien claims were meanwhile
bought by John Stewart, Blackberry,
ILL.,, who was thereupon substituted as
plaintiff in the action of Curtis Bros.
Co., VS.. the Opera House association.

ment that the sale was made last Fri
day. Mr.. Spence takes the property.

interest on the $$7,700 judgment brings
the cost of the property to Mr.. Spence.

erty sold for about $$$6,0OO less than
the total Indebtedness against it, it
Is painfully seen that there is nothing

ANNIVERSARY RIB
VIEW OBSERVED
ADDRESS BY THEODORE J.
WERLE FEATURE OF
PROGRAM

The second anniversary of the found
ing of Rib View sanatorium, five miles
west of this city, was observed last
Tuesday, when the County Board,
many Marathon county citizens, men,
bers of the ladies' literary society
and of the federated charities, gath
cred at the sanatorium. An excellent
program had been prepared by Miss
Mary E. Hughes, the nurse in charge.
The county board as well as the
other guests, were conducted through
the buildings in a group, and all
expressed their satisfaction. Miss
Hughes was complimented many times
during the afternoon. A piano selec-
ton by Joseph Ekman was followed
by two solos by Mrs. G. B. Heinemann.
Excellent Speaker
Theodore Werle, of Milwaukee, a
speaker for the Wisconsin Anti-Tu-
berculosis association, spoke. Mr..
Werle was born in Wausau and he de-
clared that he always held Wausau
and Marathon county in high regard.
The work of Rib View sanatorium was
praised by Mr.. Werle, and he declared
|ft to be the finest of its kind in the
state with the possible exception of
the Milwaukee county sanatorium at
Muirdale. Mr.. Werle emphasized the
fact that less tuberculosis is develop
ing each year in cities than hereto
fore, this being due to better and more
sanitary homes.
Rev. Richard Evans of the First M.
E. church, Mrs. c. H. Ingraham and
j. D. Christie, supervisor of the town
of Weston, also spoke. Each of these
praised the institution and declared
that it was doing much good, not only
in this community but in the entire
northern part of the state Mr.. Chris
tie explained BRIEFLY the means of
gaining admission. 1t is much the
easiest way to care for a tubercular
patient by sending him to an insti-
tuition such as this. The cost, it was
declared, would be more than cut in
half and the patients would receive
expert care and would be more likely
to recover. Rib View sanatorium has
made an excellent record in its short
period of operation. Application blanks
may be obtained from County Judge
F. E. Bump and the judge may admit
those who are without funds at the
expense of the county.
Piano selections were then, rendered
by Mr.. Ekman and Frank Swoboda, the
new Marathon county agricultural
agent was introduced. A delicious
lunch, consisting of coffee and dough-
nuts, was served at the conclusion of
the afternoon program.
