NIT proof for his statements, the
speaker vented his wrath on the
League of Nations. He stated that a
vote for the league would be one in
favor of embroiling the United States

league altogether was the attitude
taken by Mr.. Robins, who made an ap-
peal for Senator Lenroot as we'll as
for the Republican candidate for pres

The speakers attitude that the League

NEW SCHOOL IN
TOWN OF EMMETT
A BIG ADDITION

The new parochial school in the
town of Emmett, an addition of which
st. Patricks parsonage is now build
ing, will be one of the finest in the
county. 1t is a three story brick
building, constructed out of the finest
materials and in the most approved
manner, and will be ready for use be-
fore winter, it is anticipated. The
citizens of the community are mighty
proud of this institution, which Rob-
ert Freeman, the elderly and respected
citizen-leader, has fathered and urged
along. Only a week ago Sunday,
which was a rainy day, small con-
gregation subscribed over $3.50 to be
added to the building fund. The par
ents of the majority of children in
the community wished a parochial
school and in the one they are build
ing will have one of the finest in the
county and one superior to some
school buildings in the city of Wau-
Sau.

STREET CARS NOW
RUN TO HOSPITAL

After a twelve-year campaign to
have the local street cars run north
on Sixth street to the hospital those
who agitated the matter reached their
goal on Monday when the Wisconsin
Valley Electric Co. began running cars
to Gillette street, which is at the
front incline to the hospital grounds
The action of the electric company is
greatly appreciated, coming as it does
when in many other cities in the state
there is a tendency to lessen street
car service. Work was resumed this
week on the south side extension and
it is believed that the four blocks of
extension, TO Thomas street will be
in operation before cold weather can
prevent work on the extension.
