EIGHT HUNDRED LETTERS
MAILED BY CHAMBER
OF COMMERCE

The Wausau Chamber of Commerce
has mailed over eight hundred letters
to owners of automobiles, in which
request for a donation of S1.00 is
made. this amount to be used in the
grading and filling up of holes on
several highways. 1t is desired to
repair Prospect Ave, the street upon
which vehicles will have to travel
while the lower part of Grand ave., is
being paved. Also the money will be
used on road in the town of Flieth.
Several other small pieces of work
are in mind.
Up to date the responses to the ap-
peal have been few, considering that
over a week has passed since the
mailing of the letters. Just a little
over S1G0 has been received. In view
of the constant poor roads" state
ment of automobilists the Chamber Of
Commerce believes more 800 bills
should be given for the purpose.

CAPUCHIN MONASTERY is
DEDICATED FRIDAY AT
MARATHON

st. Anthony's Monastery, erected by
the Capuchin Fathers of st. Joseph's s
Province, was dedicated Friday at
Marathon. pontifical high mass
was celebrated at $3.50 "a. m, by the
Right Rev. j. Schwebach, bishop of
the Lacrosse Diocese. Presbyter AS
sistins were the Very Rev. Father
Provincial, Benedict Mueller, o. NJ,
Cap. The deacons of honor were the
Revs. Benno Aichinger, o. NJ Cap,
and Pacificus Raith, o. M. Cap; dea-
cons of the mass, the Revs. Ludget
Werth, O. M. Cap, and Venantius
Buessing, o. M. Cap. The masters of
ceremonies were the Revs. Gaudentius
Rossmann, o. M. Cap, and Edmond
KTautkraemer o. M. Cap. Servers of
the Mass were students of Marathon.
Sebastian G. Messmer, archbishop
of Milwaukee, delivered the sermon of
the occasion, following the ceremon-
les. A procession preceded the pro-
gram. 1t was led by five soldiers,
sons of st, Marys congregation at
Marathon, Capuchin clerics, fathers
and brothers followed, chanting the
Litany of All Saints, after whom
came the children, societies of the
parish, and visiting clerical guests.
To Prepare Students
The institution will prepare stu
dents to be priests, according to the
Marathon Times which in detail ex-
plains the Capuchin order. So many
students have been received during the
past several years that a new college
was needed. Divine Providence guided
the fathers to Marathon" continues
the article written by the Capuchin
fathers, where all conditions for
new foundation of this nature ap-
peared to be ideal, the quiet and rest
fulness of the free country, where
the spirit of recollection so neces-
sary for the life of study and for
striving for perfection, could be fost-
cred much easier than in noisy city:
the healthy climate with all the pos
sibilities of outdoor work and exer-
else and the pure food, give hope to
strengthen the physical health of
young students"
The Capuchin order was founded in
1905, but it was not until 1926 that
the Capuchin Reform was sanctioned
by the pope. The object of the
order is twofold The first is sacri-
fication of self, and the second, special
to the order, home and foreign mis-
sion work and the assisting of secular
clergy in the discharge of their ar
duous pastoral duties.

In another column of this weeks
Pilot, Chas. e. Guenther of KneWlten;
offers his splendid farm of 200 acres
for sale. This is one of the finest and
best located farms in the county. 1t
has been the pride of Mr.. Guenther
for years and he has spent much time
and money in clearing it of every
stump and stone until today it has
the reputation of being one of the
best kept farms in the north. Mr..
Guenther feels that he has earned a
rest and he is now going to dispose
of it. 1t is a rare chance for an en-
terprising man TO get property that
cannot be exeelled in northern Wis
consin. The price will make it an
investment worth while. The farm is
in the outskirts of Knowlton, in which
there are two large general stores
two potato warehouses, one picking
station, pea canning factory, and ~
miles from an $1,000 graded school
This farm is going to be sold and it

TO Loop the Loop
The famous stunt, loop the loop, is
no longer individual to a half dozen
