THIEVES MAY PLAN
ON HOT Time
IF THEY TRY MANEUVERS
IN WAUSAU FOR BEST
SHOTS NOW POLICE

Thieves, robbers and all others of
a similar profession will either avoid
Wausau for open work, or they'll do
some tall ducking to evade the hands
of the law. And nowadays, when the
law places it's hands on the shoulder
of gentleman" of this class, it goes
none too easy with him. There have
been open holdups in some cities in
the state-and outside, when nothing
could be done because no one could
be quickly informed.
Recently one of Wausau's citizens
made the statement that he could not
sleep comfortably one night, thinking
how easily a group of thieves could
promote haul in the city. So he,
together with large number of busi-
ness and professional men and en-
ployes, got busy Immediately. A sys-
TEN has been devised whereby rifles,
pistols, and guns of every description
have been placed in houses throughout
the central part of the city. In each
village through the county similar
steps are being taken. If at any place
an attempt at robbery is made, the
means of notification to these emer-
gency police is easy. And if through
any chance the would be thieves escape
chase can be given in quick time, for
a motor corps is organized in con-
junction.
Once tried it would not be again
that is certainty for the best shots
in the city, the best deer hunters of
the country, are at the head of the
movement.

BELIEVE SOMETHING HAS
BEEN "PUT OVER"

In letter to the Pilot last week
an overseas soldier of this city, who
has had an opportunity to travel
through most of France and to guage
probably as efficiently as any from
this locality who were overseas, the
opinions and attitude of U. S. soldiers,
writes:
Beer and light wine are served
everywhere to the United States sol
diers over here. You never see any
drunks. 1t would be a severe shock
if some of those prohibitionists could
come to France and see the terrible { p
evils of drink and how it lowers the
morals of the soldier and detracts
from his fighting ability! If they
could see drinks served in canteen
in camp sanctioned by the American
Expeditionary Force, with men sit
ting around killing time and enjoying
themselves during the long hours OF
waiting for the gangplank and with
not man tipsy from the effects of it,
a good deal of their argument towards
the abolishment of demon rum would
be exploded. l am surely not drinker,
although | like little wine and beer
if l care to take it, but 80 per cent
of the men Of the American Expedi-
tionary Force feel that something has
been Put Over on them by all this
great Reform Movement, all of a sud-
den sweeping over the states"

hundredth anniversary of the found
ing of the order in America in its hall

OF Rebekahs were invited, and also
many friends of the two orders. A
program of especial significance to the
occasion had been arranged and was
carried out to the enjoyment of all
present. j. M. Howarth, past grand.

lowed by several who entertained
with music, readings and recitations.
A quartet composed of A. M. Petersen,
X. A. Tinker, ]. A. Rowley and DR..

peal in such action as may be for
trial must be taken directly to the

that every talesman summoned and
acting as a juror shall receive the
same compensation as jurors, as

''ARCADIA ON PLOVER"

The past week articles of incorpor-
alton of what is known as the Neal
Brown Lodge, was filed in the office
of the Register of Deeds. This Lodge
was the summer retreat of Neal
Brown the latter years of his life. 1t
is located on the Plover river, about
sixteen miles from the city. The lodge
is surrounded by forest of about 100
acres, which has been maintained in
as wild state as possible and which
is one of the beauty spots of Mara
thon county. The Plover river abounds
with trout and each year is planted
with an abundance of young trout so
that it is kept we'll supplied. 1t is a
national trout stream having numer-
Gus creeks, arising from springs
emptying into it, The Lodge has no
capital stock and will be kept up by
many of our prominent men. The an

Saturday of June, each year. The fol-
lowing officers have been elected to

VENEER FACTORY 1000 IN
VICTORY LOAN CAMPAIGN

The Underwood Veneer company has
made a record of which its employees
should feel proud and of which the
city of Wausau surely can. Without
apparent effort on the part of cam
paigners every employe of the con-
Germ purchased a bond-a 100 per
cent record. equalled in few cases. The
average subscription is reported to the
Pilot as S125, many of the men pur-
chasing two and three bonds. The
total subscription was S34 800.
The Marathon Granite Company
record is also an enviable one, over
$4,000 having been obtained there in
subscriptions by Mayor John L. Sell
and his co-worker. During the Fourth
Liberty Loan campaign, the Granite
works subscribed approximately
$4,000. None who were in a position
which did not warrant their purchas-
ing bonds, were solicited or urged to
purchase them-a just and equitable
plan.

PLANTING DELAYED; FRUIT
PROSPECTS GOOD

The weather up to last week was
unusual for this period of the spring.
Temperatures through the state are
reported to have been nearly normal,
with freezing temperatures and killing
frosts at night, no appreciable damage
resulting, however, due to the dormant
state of vegetation. Except on light
soils the ground remained TOO wet to
work in practically all sections and
spring planting has remained almost
at a standstill. Owing to the mild
weather of last fall and winter, the
preparation of the ground, however, is
well advanced. Farmers are prepared
now to rush work as soon as the
ground is partially dry and there is
promise of warm weather. Fall grains
and grasses and spring grains which
are up made excellent growth and are
reported as looking fine everywhere.
Fruit prospects so far are reported as
good.

AFTER THE BATTLE IN
ARGONNE FOREST

A tear-stained photograph and a
package of letters taken from a soldier
after the battle of Argonne forest,
mute evidence of wars tragedies, have
been sent to Racine through the kind
ness of stranger. Across the back
| of the photograph is the inscription,

Edith A. Davis, both of Racine, the
latter formerly of Wausau. The SOL
dier whose humanity prompted him to
read the dead mans Identification tag
and to send the picture and the letters,
was Charles M. Schoppert, Harrisburg,
Pa, who, in writing, said: "Dear
Madam, 81 am not much of a writer,
