MAXWELL TEACHERS
AGENCY

Teachers and School Boards will be
interested in new enterprise which
has been opened in Wausau known as
the MAXWELL Teachers Agency The
Agency is conducted by VIM. NJ. Max
we'll and is licensed by and operated
under bond to the Wisconsin Indus
trial Commission. @
Mr.. Maxwell has had several years
OF experience as teacher In the rur-
al, public, graded and high schools of
this state and Illinois and knows the
needs of employers and employees
from all angles.
The purpose of this agency is to
secure good positions for good teach
ers in this and other states, but
particularly in Marathon and adjacent
counties. The motto OF the agency is
sincerity, Service, Satisfaction" and
every legitimate effort will be made
to give the best and most satisfactory
service to every teacher and employer
who makes application to the agency.
The central location of the agency,
free services to school boards. prompt
and efficient, service and attention to
ali calls from both teachers and school
boards, liberal terms to teachers and
many other features of interest to all
members of the profession make this
agency a valuable asset to the teach
ing profession.
In view of the fact that many
schools in this county were without
teachers at the opening of the last
school year, it would seem that this
agency fills real need in this sec
ton of the state.
The advertisement which appears
on another page of this issue contains
additional information concerning this
new and much needed enterprise.

NATIONAL headquarters for the pro-
motion of the candidacy of James W.
Gerard. New York, for the presiden-
tial nomination at the Democratic
convention at San Francisco, June rs,
1920, were formally opened in Des
Moines with l. T. Jones, Des Moines,
in charge and F. F. Miles as publicity
manager. -Afr.SJones issued an official
statement as follows:
Democrats are inspired by three
outstanding facts. First, during the
past eight years, under Democratic ad-
ministration, we have recorded the
most prodigious story ever written IN
to history since human government
began; second, we are proposing for
the future years a program for recon
struction at home, and the emancipa-
ton of oppressed peoples throughout
the world so vastly comprehensive
that measurable accomplishment OF
il will dim all records of the.e past;
third, the party is fortunate In having
developed a group of strong men, any
one of whom possesses many, if not
all. of the qualities which guarantee
to the nation the high mark in
achievement during the years of the
immediate future.
I'm the light of these facts and the
further fact that every unselfish pa
triotic American citizen of whatever
party desires the election of the best
president possible, we shall endeayor
to present the qualities of Judge Ger
ard in an affirmative way and not in
negation of the qualifications of other
candidates."

INSPECTION OF CENTRAL
SCHOOL BUILDING

The City Council and city officials
met with the Regular and Industrial
School Board at the Central school
building last evening, the guests of
the Industrial Board. One of Miss
Brunstad's cooking classes served the
evening meal at $50. Following the
meal, Principal o. R. Johnson of the
Industrial School was asked to explain
the purchase and installation of the
machine shop equipment. He spoke
OF the difficulties he met with in Sc
curing the machinery. He called the
attention of those present to the fact
that the machine shop equipment had
been installed with the assistance of
the young men receiving training ain
Industrial arts. He stated that with
the Wausau equipment it is now pos
sfble to turn out practical machin-
list and wood worker.
Supt. Tobey next spoke on the diff
| ficulties in securing and holding
teachers, even after they had been
| hired under contract. He recited
| number Of instances where. other
cities had recently induced a number
| of our teachers to come to them by
| Offering substantial increases in sal
aries. He submitted figures which
showed clearly that although the sal
aries of the Wausau teachers had
been increased during the present
school year. the salaries paid were
| still below those paid by other cities.
He informed the Council that unless
Wausau paid as well as other local
tiles of like size, and unless Wausau
people were willing to provide more
II M nd 10 -Ind crfr, rr
i quarters, we would not be able to Sc
cure a sufficient number of teachers
to take charge of our schools for the
coming year. The question of provid-
ing school Accommodations for the
children III the southern part of the
city, was also discussed and Super
visor Gaetzman submitted report on
the matter.
Mr.. Wv Albers, President of the
Irregular School Board corroboratedM Mr..
Tobey's statements, by stating that the
supply of teachers and salaries was
as serious as outlined by Mn. Tobey.
During the general discussion, SUI
pervisor zielsdorf. inquired why the
high school did not employ a coach
to promote athletics. Mr.. Tobey in
formed him that it was difficult to
secure good teacher and coach for
the salary paid to instructors in the
high school; that the cities which, had
better coaches, were paying for the
special services of such coach from
special fund provided by the citi-
zenship.
Following the business session, all
present inspected the work of the
various classes in session; viz. cook.
ing, sewing. Red Cross, nursing
drawing, telegraphy, wood working
automobile. The most interesting
among them was a class. in the new
machine shop. Mr. Schlitz, the in,
. structcr in this branch, had a number
of his day students present, operating
the various machines. The members
| of the Council and School Board were
well pleased with the new schoG
7. building and equipment.

STATE FAIR IN AUGUST
Early Dates Given. State Fair-Wfl
Mean Much Hardships to Counties
Exhibiting From North Part of
the State

Why the state fair for Wisconsin ba;
been scheduled for August Goth to
September 4th inclusive, is beyond
the imaginative powers of the people
in the north half of the state of Wis.,
consin.
: State fair this year from the thir-
tieth of August to September 4th in
elusive" is what G.. P. Norgord, COM
missioner of agriculture at Madison
has wired the Villas County News in.
response to message from this pa
per asking why it was made-f3r such
an early date.
The north half of the state of Wis
cofsin has for several years past been
placing before the state fair visitor
the best exhibition shown anywhere
lin fact has carried off the bulk of
the premiums, and is winning for
herself honors that cannot be dupli-
Gated. The fair at Milwaukee has
been advancing to earlier dates al
most every year, and when, this has
been done. it became apparent to the
to the northern counties that to ex-
hibit all the products called for by
the state fair association in order to
win the county sweepstake honors,
was an impossibility Harvesting OF
the various crops, especially potatoes,
had not begun in the northern half
Of the potatoe belt, the crop not be-
ing ripe enough to exhibit This meant
a curtailment not only of spuds, but
of. grains as we'll. No threshing had
been done, and without the grain ex-
hihit, the exhibiting county fall down
again over the. southern county.
The understanding has always been.
that the state fair was held fer her
people within the boundaries of the
state, regardless of who they we're, or
from what section they come from.
The development of the state at
large to be. shown at this fair has been
worked for by the agricultural board
of the state, assisted by her multitude
of county agents, her land companies,
newspapers and the people in general
Each section therefore should have
the, same showing. They should be
given the same incentive to boost her
resources with her neighbor. One
should not be given the advantage
over the other. Like treatment to all.
If the setting of the dates of the
1920 state fair to August 30th, is fair
for every county in the northern
half of the state. then we want to be
shown by those who set the dates at
so early period that it makes it an
impossibility for any of us to exhibit
with full compliment of products
such as demanded by the. state fair
board, and which should be made by
every county who is after the full
showing of her resources. There
is certainly something rotten in this
early date setting. What is it?-vilas

Hoover is coming into prominence
as a candidate FOR President, whether
as a democrat or republican is not
known, though he has always been
''set down" as with the latter party.
The Milwaukee Journal interviewed
many state republicans. and publish
ed a part of them in its Sunday edi-
ton. Hoover was favored by nearly
all: some were non-commital. c. G.
Yawkey of Wausau, said:
Il hardly know what to say about
Mr.. Hoover. l don't even know
whether he is Republican or DEM
ocrat. He seems to be man of con-
siderable ability but don't know that
l care to express an opinion. There
seems to have been very little said
about him except as to what he was
doing, and he appears to have done
good work"

There is a split in the republican
party in the senate over the peace
treaty. A split in the party more mo-
mentous than any since Theodore
Roosevelt bolted the 1912 convention
confronted the party managers and
threatened to extend to the presiden-
tial campaign. Mr.. Lodge because of
his efforts to bring about a compro-
mise with the democrats to ratify the
treaty may lose his leadership. The
progress toward agreement on Article
10 reported by Mr.. Lodge and his as
sociates on the informal compromise
may sacrifice party harmony
