TOWN OF FLIETH WANTS
GOOD ROADS

Franklin Gritzmacher and c. G..
Kruger and the members of the Orig
inal Jazz Band met with the residents
of the Woodlawn School District in the
town of Flieth. Miss Erna Zimmer-
mann had prepared a Christmas pro-
gram, which was well presented. Mr..
Gritzmacher and Mr.. Kruger dicussed
the good roads question, and after
Santa Claus had presented his gifts to
the pupils of the school, Mr.. Zarnke
auctioned off about three dozen of the
most delicious pies ever seen. Then
the jazz Band let loose much to the
delight of all present. 1t was 1890
when the gathering dispersed happier
for the experience.
Our friends from Wausau had a
taste of poor roads on their home
ward trip. First they lost the rear
seat with its occupants, and while
turning back to pick them up, the
sleigh tipped over into the ditch, luck
lily no one was hurt Knippel how
ever was complaining about having
swallowed too much snow.

MRS. j. M. LULL PRESENTED
WITH SILVER PLATE
BY co. c.

By the sacrifice of time and effort.
a constant endeavor to do acts of kind
ness, and a personal interest mani
tested in Wausau and Marathon coun-
ty soldiers. Mrs John NJ. Lull has won
a coveted distinction; the men of
Company c, as well as the many boys
who saw service and were befriended
by her, call her "The Soldiers Friend
When Christmas came near, Co. & felt
that merely an expression OF thank
fulness to Mrs. Lull for her unselfish
and patriotic service during the war
as we'll as afterwards, would hardly
be adequate to express its unanimous
sentiment. So Capt. Fred r. Becker
was delegated to present gift to
Mrs. Lull. On December 23rd, on be-
half of the members of Co. G, the cap
tain presented Mrs. Lull with two
beautiful pieces of Sheffield silver
plate, water pitcher and a meat plat
ter, as an evidence of their apprecia-
ton of her interest in all Wausau and
Marethun county soldiers, especially
those who were wounded.
Mrs Lull, when addressed by Pilot
representative, could not say enough
in thanking the men of Co. c, but she
declared her modest belief that she
doesn't merit such tribute. The Pilot
stands pa" with the members of Co.
C. Mrs. Lull has devoted much of her
time since the start of the war to the
unselfish service of local boys wearing
Uncle Sans uniforms. She has been
affiliated with the Red Cross, and of
late has assisted many times at the
Soldiers and Sailors club. Recently
when banquet was held for the re-
turning members of Co. G. Mrs. Lull
was city chairman. And her good work
has not ceased yet.
