SALISBURY
BONDS INCREASED

Upon the presentation Of affidavits
by Attorneys John Roberts and Theo.
Brazeau, stating that since his incar-
ceration in the county Jail, Thomas
Salisbury of MarshfieId awaiting trial
for assault with intent to kill ex-Dis-
trict Attorney John Roberts had made
additional threats to elk" Roberts and
to attend to" Brazeau, before he got
thru with it. These threats were also
testified to by one Dodge, a fellow
prisoner and altho surety had been
found to qualify for the $5,OOO.OO ar-
nearance bond required, Judge A. H.
Reid of Wausau who heard the mat
ter in the stead Of Judge B. B. Park,
decided that an extra bond of SIG
10000 should be required of Sails
bury to assure his keeping the peace
1t is not likely that he will be able to
secure this additional bond and there
fore he will probably remain in jail
until his trial which is scheduled to
begin on March 18th.

PUBLIC School
NOTES

The work of the second semester
began this week. Under the plan Of
dividing the time lost from the clos
ing of school last fall the semester is
reduced from eighteen to fifteen weeks
This means that a pupils absence
from school causes him to lose a pro
portionately larger part of his edu-
cational opportunity.
Friday night at the high school
gymnasium the local team and the
fast Wausau team played a close and
exciting game. The score resulted in
a IS to 16 victory for the visiting
team. When it is considered that
Wausau decisively defeated Amigo
which earlier in the season overwhelm
ed Grand Rapids it is evident that the
local team has made wonderful i'm
provement. The feature of the game
was the work of Loren Matthews as
guard. This week the team goes to
Marshfeld.
Half of the Senior Domestic Science
Class entertained the remainder of
the class and few of the faculty. at
three-course twelve o'clock break
fast on Thursday ct last week. 1t was
successful in every way.

Newspaper Publishers:
The revenue bill now pending in
Congress, will doubtless become a law
in the course of the next ten days Or
two weeks. The day after the Presi-
dent signs this bill an increased tax
becomes effective on all stocks of
cigars, cigarettes, and manufactured
tobacco of all kinds as we'll as an in
creased tax upon all distilled spirits,
wines, etc. Every dealer in any of
these commodities is required to file
a sworn return and invent\ry wit
the Collector of Internal Revenue, and
such inventory must be taken on the
morning of the day the law becomes
effective. This office will mail to the
dealers few days before the law be
comes effective, proper inventory
forms. The law places upon each
dealer the responsibility of advising
himself as to the effective date of the
bill, and, therefore, they should be
cautioned to watch newspaper an
nouncements of the day the president
signs the bill and the following morn
ing, take actual inventory of his
stock
The law provides severe penalties
for failure on the part of the dealers
to make inventory and return as re
Quired by law Therefore. I feel that
the newspapers of this district will
be pleased to serve their patrons as
well as their government by giving
the widest publicity to this informa-
ton in order that dealers may not un-
Intentionally involve themselves in the
penalties provided by law.
This matter is released for immedi-
ate publication.
Very truly yours,
Burt Williams,
Collector

HISTORICAL EVENT 1T
CONGREGATIONAL
CHURCH TUESDAY
Rev Noel J. Breed, Pastor, Installed by ECies-
iastcaI Council Tuesday Feb'y II, 1919


orator of the Council took this time
and opportunity to express the ap-
probation and thanks of the visitors
to the church people of Grand Rapids
for the splendid time they had furn-
ished them and to the ladies in partic-
ular who had served them with such
a delicious banquet.
At 1880 o'clock the audience and
Council were called to order again
in the audience room of the church
where the installation took place. At
ter the opening exercises and singing
by the choir led by Mrs. Guy Nash.
John Roberts sang one of his popular
solos, which charmed the large audi
ence with his faultless rendition of II.
The Installation sermon was then
! preached by Rev. E. S. Worcester D.
D., of the First Congregational Church
of Madison, and reputed to be one of
| the strongest men in the state His
sermon was strong in defense of the
| Church and her accomplishments m
the history of the world. Without the
church and her influence what would
become of this world. His defense of
te church and her influence in the
Christian civilization of the world
since Christ time has been wonderful
His sermon was the event of the Coun-
Gil.
The installation prayer was ably
rendered by Rev. T. R. Faville of Osh
kosh, who touched the hearts of the
people. 1t was very impressive and
appropriate to the occasion. Rev. H.
E. Peabody b. D., of Appleton, de-
livered the charge to the pastor, and
it was done with that ease and free
dom that comes ftm ripe experience
such as Rev. Peabody possesses. It
was excellent and impressive full of
admonition.
Rev E. A Ralph of Green Bay ex-
tended to the pastor the right hand
of fellowship, and he did it feelingly
with brotherly assurance of sympathy
and fellowship in his new relationship
90 the local church and his future re-
lationship in the church work in Wis
consin
Rev. J. w Wilson of Ripon closed
the installation service with an ex-
cellent charge to the people Of the
Congregational Church admonishing
them that they had an important obi
cation in helping and sustaining their
pastor in all avenues Of church wo'''-
in Grand Rapids and that they must
not expect him to do it all. His talk
was earnest, sympathetic and urgent
that the Council would expect them
to cooperate with him in the dis
charge of all work in this parish. If
that relationship existed between the
membership of the church and their
pastor great good wC~ld result from
such union of effort in the good work.
1t is the general opinion Of all
those interested in the Congregational
Church in this city, that the services
connected with the Installation Of the
new Pastor, Rev. Noel ! R"eed. re-
suited in great good not only to Lhs
local people but to the visitors as
well. The get together spirit was
highly manifested.
