COMPANY HAS MOST
SUCCESSFUL PERIOD
AT CAMP DOUGLAS

Members of the 22nd Separate COM
pany, formerly Co. G, Wisconsin Ma
tional Guard, and the Second Provi
sional band, enjoyed most success
full and pleasant ten days at Camp
Douglas this year, according to Cap
tain Fred r. Becker. Last Saturday
afternoon, brown as Indians and
showing the healthful effects of out
door drilling and camp life, the mem
bers of both organizations arrived in
the city. Scores of citizens were at
thu train to meet them and they were
given much attention as they marched
UP town to be disbanded. Both or
sanizations held their own excellent
~, the regimental band receiving con-
s. ut praise and the company indicat-
ing its ability to carry off honors in
great shape also.
This year there was no competition,
and at the end of the period no rating
of companies was given out. This is
expected tC come later in the season,
however, after all the national guard
companies in the state have had their
opportunity to spend two weeks in
training.
From the beginning a schedule
which had been prepared by officers
of the Wisconsin National Guard and
of the federal staff, was carried into
effect. The local company had only
one day of field work, practically all
the period being given to instruction
in rudimentary matters. Extended
order and closed order work was fea
ture of the training. Colonel Ball,
regular army officer whose connection
with the camp was arranged at Wash
ington, declared, according to Capt.
Becker, that he had never seen re-
cruits make quicker progress than
those at Camp Douglas, in all periods,
had made this summer Frequently
four of the companies at Douglas were
grouped together, thus forming war
strength company, for. the purpose of
drill. General Charles King was in
charge of parades and guard mounts.
One of the biggest fields of success
for Company G was in athletics. The
was considered the best in camp. In
good game it beat Tomah, the team
which was rated highest in camp.
After that appeals for games were flu
tile. The rest of the athletic program
was confused. Due to misunder
standings the schedule was not fol-
lowed carefully and local boys be-
lieved there was some unfairneSs. AS
result they participated in few of
the later events in camp.
Entertainment was provided for
the men when off duty in the way of
concerts, boxing and wrestling
matches, and moving pictures. A Y.
NJ. G.. A. tent was constantly filled
with uniformed men. Three other
companies were grouped in the bat
talon in which the 22nd Company
was placed, Waukesha, Rhinelander
and Neenah,
The band was requested to remain
at Camp Douglas during the remain
der of the month, but as the various
members of the organization had to
get back to the city and to their
work, the invitation was declined
w. l. LaCerte will return to camp for
the rest of the month, it was learned
yesterday.

No greater gift has been made to
the city of Wausau than that of the
late Mrs. Mary Helen Parcher. Her
bequest is finally indicative of the
generosity, kindness, benevolence of
a beautiful character-a woman who
loved citizenship and felt her COM
munity inseparably bound to her.
Those of her originally designated
trustees who survive are capable, big
citizens and like the late Mrs. Par
cher, the community will know that
their actions will be taken to promote
the welfare and happiness OF the peo-
pie of Wausau.

Japan's "Year of the Monkey"


Every year, In a series of II, Is
known In Japan by the name of an
animal, as In the signs of the zodiac
and this is the year of the monkey.
Consequently the many millions of
New Year cards exchanged were for
the most part decorated with simian
representations of various kinds. The
year of the monkey Is not considered
a propitious one for marriage, as the
word saru monkey also is a verb
which means "to leave" and there is
a superstition that alb who marry In
the monkey year are likely to leave
their partners, who might otherwise
be partners for life. Consequently all
the couples who intended entering the
married state In 1920 had to rush the
ceremony through in December of
1919, keeping country registries and
shrines very busy during that month.
The post office had a gigantic task in
delivering the hundreds of millions Of
New Year cards dispatched the day
before the first of January.

WILL ESTABLISH VOTING PRECINCT AT LOST RIVER

Owing, it is said. to the efforts of a committee of the Republican Club, appointed for that purpose. voting precinct will be established at Lost River for the forthcoming elections. An announcement to this effect was made by the committee at the last meeting of the club Sunday afternoon last.
 Parties recently arriving from the Lost River section reported some time ago that Commissioner Wm Marx had refused to establish n voting pre- cinct at Lost River although petition ed to do so by the considerable num- Der of voters there. It develops that the commissioner ruled against the petition on the score that the petition requesting the establishment of a voting precinct was not signed by the requisite number of qualified voters. The law provides that peti- tions for this purpose shall bear. the signatures of 30 qualified voters. The petition in question is said to have carried the names of 31 persons. It was held by Commissioner Marx that four of these had not been in the ter. ritory long enough to acquire voting rights thus reducing the number of valid signatures below the number re- quired by law.
 The matter has been adjusted. how ever and the voters there will have the opportunity of casting their ball. lots.
