BUSINESS WOMEN HOLD
SUCCESSFUL CONVENTION

A thoroughly wide awake and en-
thusiastfc convention of the National
Federation of Business and Profess
sional Women's club, held at st. Paul
July 2730 inclusive was attended by
Miss Mary B. Mooney and Miss Mary
E. Kavanaugh, representatives of the
local Business and Professional Wo-
mems club. More than five hundred
women were there. Realizing that
'the dark ages for women are over
and that they are rapidly coming into
their own" as was pointed out by
Miss Gail Lauglin, national president.
The Wausau delegates listened to
many excellent addresses. Through
out the convention Miss Laughlin's at
titude seemed to be characteristic.
"Old-fashioned ideas that the only
place for the woman is in the home
are out Of date" she said
THE woman has demonstrated her
capability of holding responsible po-
sitions as well as any man." The
theme of organization was given
careful attention by Mrs. Elizabeth
Sears, who has spoken in Wausau and
who is well known newspaper wo-
man and magazine writer. "The Lea
que of Women Voters" was discussed
by Mrs. Andreas LELAND, Minneapolis
suffragist. Many valuable sugges-
tons were received by the interchange
or ideas and by contact with women
such as Mrs. j. H. McRee of Omaha,
who realizes thirty-five thousand dol
lars year from her tea shop; Mrs.
Margaret S. Gray of Pittsburgh whose
business career has been extensive;
Mrs. Lois Wilson Jellies, real estate
woman at Sioux Falls. S. D., who de-
clared she could sell a yellow dog
with a pink ribbon" and Mrs. Mary
5. Burnham of Louistown, Me-, wo-
man sheriff.
A very evident mark of the profess
sional standard of those women pres
ent was the fact that not a single
favor was asked because the National
Federation was feminine. A standard
OF service, not sex, was one of the as
pirations of the convention which was
realized.
1t was satisfaction, Miss Mooney
declares, to see five hundred women
with definite purposes in life gathered
together. Furthermore, the delegates
were pleased to find that comparative
ly, what Wausau business women
have done during the past year was
an advance which few cities were
able to record.
A delicatessen and tea shop is being
installed at the Business and Profess
sional Women's club. Miss Helen
Perkins, a graduate of the home eco
nomics department of the University
OF Wisconsin. will be the direc-
tor. She is an expert dietition and
has installed system at Normal. ILL.,.
which is successful

JAMES S. SMITH, AN
OLD CITIZEN AND WAR
VETERAN, PASSES AWAY

Another WauSau pioneer, man all
the better known because of his serv-
ice during the Civil war, but whose
health has for the past ten or fifteen
years, more or less shut him off from
contact with citizens, answered final
summons Thursday afternoon at D.
m. James Simon Smith, who passed
away then, had been i'll since April 3,
Of this year, when he suffered para
lytic stroke. His decline thereafter
was rapid. Mr.. Smiths illness during
that last several months carried home
to his friends and relatives, the certain
knowledge that not much more time
could elapse before he would cross
the Rubicon into the land where other
comrades wait with welcomes.
Mr.. Smiths Illness was not chance
aff1iction-it was duep it is believed, to
the severe test of physical endurance
which he underwent when captured by
the confederates. He was a member
of Company G, 45th Regiment, Penn
sylvania Infantry, and, after having
participated in. most of the war, he
was taken prisoner. Nine days he
went without sustenance. Finally
Union men recaptured the village and
the garrison in which he was held.
Wausau friends of Mr.. Smith will not
readily forget his ability to relate
tales of the old Wausau pinery and of
the Civil war also.
The deceased was born in Wayne
county, Pennsylvania, ON October 25,
1892, and was So years of age. Not
until after his service did he come to
Wisconsin and locate in Wausau,
when he associated himself with
those fine pioneers, most of whom
have also passed on. He had witness
ed Wausau emerge from a small viii
lage with hardly a handful of people,
into city.
On March 10, 1892, the late Mr..
Smith was united in marriage with
Miss Bertha Grob of Mosinee, who
survives him. He is also survived by
one daughter Mrs. A. Brand, and one
son, Walter G. Smith, of Akron, o.

RUSH T n T ORDERS

Contrary to expectations orders for
INT from town chairmen are not
coming in as rapidly as expected. Up
to Monday morning only about a dozen
chairmen had sent in their blanks
with checks. Time is short and in or
der to insure each town getting its
share, chairmen who have not yet re-
ported are urged to hustle in their
blanks. Many farmers seem to have
the notion that the chairman will call
soliciting their orders. Such is not
the case. Farmers are expected to
see their chairman. As previously
mentioned where chairmen will not
bother. farmers are urged TO send
checks with their order directly to
the office of county agent.

A weary missionary fell asleep and
had dream. A message had arrived
that the Master was coming, and to
her was appointed the task of getting
all the little children ready for Him.
So she arranged them on benches in
tiers, putting the little white children
first, nearest to- where the Master
would stand, then the little yellow,
red, and brown children, and far back
the black children. When all were in
their places, she was not satisfied
with the result Why should the
black children be so far away, they
ought, perhaps to be on the front
benches. She started to re-arrange
them, but just as all was in confusion,
footsteps were heard; it was the
Masters tread. He was coming be-
fore the children were ready. To
think that the task entrusted to her
had not been accomplished in time!
The footsteps drew near, and she was
obliged to look up. Lo, as her eyes
rested upon the children all shades OF
color and difference had vanished; the
| little children in the Masters presence
were all alike e.-Exchange.

How About a Celebration.

Is Washburn going to have cele-
pration on the 4th of July or are
things going to go by the boards
without celebration of the national
holiday. Bayfield, is not going to
have celebration and Ashland, ac-
cording to the Ashland Press, does not
expect to celebrate, and Washburr
ought to do something if they want
to get the crowds on that day.
There are many merchants and
restaurant men in the city that q
celebration would benefit and these
should get together and start the bal
rolling for rousing celebration anG
others will be willing to help with
funds if plans for celebration were
only started.
