Election law changes made by the
legislature in the session of 1919, will
become effective on September 7
Wausau will not be concerned with it
since it reaches only towns and vii
lagos having population of less than
5000. By means of petition signed
by 20 voters in towns of less than
5000 persons, the hours of voting may
be changed to include the hours be
tween a. m. and 8 p. m. instead oi
the old hours of a. m. to $50 p. m
Under this arrangement there is nc
difficulty encountered in voting for
those who are occupied during the
day.

PROCLAMATION
The Fifty-second Annual

The Fifty-Second Annual
County Fair will be held Au-
gust "a, 25, 26, and 9th.
Always have the citizens
shown appreciation and a great
interest towards the County
Fair success. The Agricultur-
al Society, although greatly
missing the Grand Stand, do not
consider it being handicapped
to make this years Fair Bigger
and Better.
Let us therefore join in the
attempt of making the 1920 Fair
a grand success by declaring
Wednesday and Thursday aft
ternoons a half-holiday that all
may have an opportunity in
contributing towards the untir-
ing efforts of the Marathon
County Agricultural Society.
