UNIVERSALIST CHURCH
OPENED SUNDAY WITH
LABOR DAY SERMON

After a summer intermiSSion dur
ing which there were no services, the
Universalist church opened last Sun
day morning when the Rev. William
j.. Taylor delivered a Labor Day SER
mon. THE immediate question be-
fore u.s." he said, sis what is the duty
and opportunity of the Christian
church in the face of this great unrest
this world, turmoil, this clash of class
es and races this great social upheav-
al?
THE church should endeavor as one
of its primary tasks, to maintain an at
mosphere of goodwill, a climate in
which the different classes of men may
come together in free and frank man
ner to confer and discuss in a truly
brotherly fashion the problems which
are the most immediate concern to us
all. The church must recognize the
best hopes and aspirations of labor.
And when | say this, i emphasize the
fact that it has done much already.
The church should protest against the
refusal of employers to recognize the
trade unions. The unions are the la
bor's attorneys and they are its safe
guards. Furthermore, where they are
justly administered, they safeguard the
public, for if they are honorably man
aged, they stand for law and order, and
for the most part, have been opposed
to any radical, revolutionary bolshe-
visit doctrines" Mr.. Taylor went into
detail in an analysis of the right re-
latlon between employers and laboring
men. He emphasized his strong sup
port when labor men organize to pro-
tect themselves.

WILL KNOW TOMORROW
WHO ARE SENATORIAL
AND OTHER NOMINEES

The Wisconsin primaries are under
way today. The campaign this year
in the Republican party has been as
intensive in Wisconsin, as anywhere in
the country. Every effort has been ex-
tended by stalwarts to have Gilbert e..
Seaman selected, while Roy P. Wilcox
has assumed an important place. The
other candidates seem to split the Pro-
gressive cause - Edward Dithmar,
John ]. Blaine and James n. Titte-
more. Merlin Hull, the sixth candi-
date, has drawn little attention. The
Democratic party has no contests.
Locally as well as in the state there
are no nominations being fought for.
The present ticket will stand in the
general election next November, pro-
viding enough Democratic votes are
cast to meet primary requirements.
Democrats generally announce their
intention of voting their party ticket
in the primary regardless of whether
there are or are not contests. This
is the urgent request Democratic cam
paigners are making, and it is antici-
pated the request will be needed by
those who know what possibilities
there are for the Democratic party,
even in Wisconsin, next November.
Women are voting today also-a
factor which will make the results of
tOday's primary of interest through
out the nation. 1t will give some indi-
cation of their preferences. Nothing
of tremendous Importance, however,
can be deducted as long as the DEM
OcratS have no contests.

Varieties of Potatoes.

One potato may be big enough to
provide meal for good-sized fam
lily. People in Virginia like them that
way. In northern markets, however,
the demand is for potatoes of mod
est size. In Europe potatoes are
grown of different kinds for different
purposes. Certain varieties are raised
for cooking and others for starch
making and distillhg. Over there
they have so-called "stock potato"
which is not used for human food at
all. 1t is very large and coarse Of tex
ture. The yield to the acre Is twice
the ordinary. and the tubers, being ex-
ceedingly rich in starch. are great al
cohol producers.

WAUSAU PEOPLE ATTEND
LINCOLN COUNTY FAIR

The Lincoln county fair held at Mer-
rill from Tuesday to Friday, inclu-
sive, drew many from Wausau, most
of them going up by autos. The wealth
er man favored the fair as he did the
fair held in this county the week pre-
vious.
There was not drop of rain fell or
a cloudy day during the four days, and
all report the display of farm pro-
ducts, live stock, poultry, etc, and the
races and attractions the best in the
history of the association. Mark Bel
lis was starter at the races.
There has not been a fair held in
Lincoln county for several years most
ly for lack of interest. This year the
citizens of that county were keen to
the advantages of good fair and it
promises well for the future.

Conversation for Dark Days.

"There are not many happinesses
so complete as those that are
snatched under the shadow of the
sword" Some of life's brightest
blossoms bloom along its hardest
ways, and looking back on days of
poverty. sickness and hardship we
often see the choicest treasures of
love and loyalty that we have ever
known. Anyone may share our joys
with us, but the one who shares our
trials comes close in friendship that
will never be forgotten. An outsider,
pitying the weary attendants In a
sickr0om, cannot know how near 70
heaven its companionships often lie.
nor what blessed bits of happiness
are snatched under the shadow OF the
suspended sword. The dark days have
their compensations.-Montreal Her

APPLE TREE COVERED
WITH BLOSSOMS IN FALL

An apple tree in the yard of Ray
Best, Schofield, has blossomed for the
second time this year. Just at present
the tree is laden with beautiful fra
grant blossoms. 1t is a three year old
tree and has already borne a crop of
apples this year. Mrs. John Abel,
mother of Mrs. Ray Best, visited The
Pilot Office Tuesday bringing with her
a few of the blossoms which carry
with them the breath of Spring. This
is indeed an anomoly which agricul-
turalists should be interested in. Who
knows? Perhaps Wisconsin trees can
be forced to produce two crops of ap-
plies year. Mrs. Abel declares that
in her thirty-three years of residence
in Marathon county she has not seen
this happen before.

magnificent spiritual feeling, and were

Their work today as a. part of this

They will want leaders to make our

"In hundreds of thousands of

OVER 1000 CHILDREN ARE
BACK AT ROUTINE
OF STUDY

There were Sighs and cries, but like
wise much laughter and joy-a great
variety of feelings, exhibited yesterday
morning when over 1000 Wausau boys
and girls focked to the public schools.
OF course, all these wholesome chill
dren were glad to see each other. but
they would have been unusual if they
had exclaimed, one and all, Were
ready to go to school again." So ex-
pressions such as, Gee, amt it tough
to go inside this nice day" and SUM
mer went too fast" were heard on
every hand.
Labor Day just added one more
whole day to the summer vacation and
from the kindergarten to high school,
students only had to report. receive
their room assignments and then the
teachers dismissed classes.
This wasn't a strike or anything like
that, but if grownup folks had the day
off, it seemed only fair that youngsters
of the city join their parents for
picnic at the fair grounds or an after
noon at Rothschild park.
They accepted the dismissal with en-
thusiasm, returning this morning to
tdhc up SCHDidSliC WOTk III CdFuGSt. n
few weeks will be necessary, it is hard
lv questioned. before these Youngsters
become Phi Beta Kappa students
Even at the present time there is
no vacant space in any of the school
buildings. Many more improvements
and enlargements are going to be ne
cessary before many years pass.
Vt is easy to realize how the high
schools facilities must be extended,
how the building must be somewhat
enlarged or its pupils sent elsewhere.
Particularly should the city realize
the importance of ,affording growing
youths better athletic facilities-even
swimming pool is not beyond Wau-
Sau.
