was elaborate and very appetiZing.
Community singing was led by Del
Curtis, who had the assembled men,
bers sing America" before being
seated During the evening a num-
Der of stirring songs were sung, and
the Wausau Jazz band furnished ex-
cellent music during the refreshment
hour There was short program of
vocal music rendered by a quintet,
composed of Oscar Allen, George Veh-
low, Harry Kane, Knox Kreutzer and
Del Curtis. They were recalled again
and again which was proof sufficient
that they pleased all present.
DIR. Joseph +. Smith, president,
presided, and made a brief report of
what had been done during the year
and said that the reports of the offic-
ers before the meeting closed which
would tell the tale in more concrete
form.

were of one accord, that his talk was
most inspiring and booster for fu-
ture action. He took occasion at the
outset to pay high compliment Lo
the officers of the Chamber of Com

lis, its very efficient secretary, who
has not ''slept on the job" seemingly,
one moment during the year, and had
done great work for the city. Mr..
Reid said he meant to make no criti-

past, as no doubt everything possible
had been done that could be under
the circumstances, but he pointed
out in many ways how Wausau could
be beautifed Mr.. Reid thought re-
servations should have been made for
adequate room for public buildings,
schools, parks, ETC., when land was
cheap. He said there was a time
when Forest Park could have been
purchased for very little. Now, as it
is, every acre is in the hands of indi-
viduals and cannot be purchased only
at great cost. He pointed out the
beauties of Lake Wausau, and the
possibilities of handsome drive be-

highest point in the state In fact,
he drew a ,''vision of the future"
which would require years of the best
minds to realize, and the cost would

Reid showed that WauSau had the
natural beauties it only needed the
right spirit to make it and it's sur.

found anywhere.
