The 21st annual convention of the

dent, Robert w. Fem of Sheboygan;

kee; secretary Calvin u. Wise of Mad

installed and acknowledged their cleo
ton.
Object to Change
Resolutions were adopted by the
convention thanking Wausau local No.
Is for their very successful efforts to
make this a pleasant and instructive
time for all. Mayor Emil Flatter and
S. B. Tobey were thanked for the
talks they gave and the Eagles and
the local press were assured of the
appreciation of the conference The
state convention aligned itself with the
policy of the national association i'm
protesting to congress against the en-
actment of the new Reconsideration"
bill now pending, objection being reg
istered to the proposed changes in
classification and to the use of the
term "engine men" as applied to en-
gineers in the bill.
The educational program of the as
ISOLATION was emphasized, and the de-
STABILITY of cooperation between the
engineers and the industries was in
dicated. The association Is activiated
by high ideals and its aim is for the
elevation Of the standards of the pro-
fession. Both the state and national
associations are in favor of license
law which would serve to assure the
filling of responsible positions with
men competent to fulfill their import
ant duties. Robert w. Fem, newly
elected president, and Fred w. Raven,
of Chicago, secretary of the national
association, told of the benefits avail
able to members.
Visit Electric Company

the new plant Of the Wisconsin Valley
Electric company which called forth
many praises from all. The unani-
nous opinion Of the delegates was
that they had found Wausau pleas
ant, wide-awake place and were well
satisfied with the reception they had
met with from Wausau engineers. The
exhibits of the Central States Exhib-
itors' association were packed up in
the afternoon after having been thor
oughly inspected Thursday evening.

sented, including the Wisconsin Valley

NINE COUNTY CLERKS
VISIT WAUSAU AFTER
AMIGO CONVENTION

At the invitation of County Clerk
Edward Kuhlmann, who attended the
county clerks convention at Amigo
last week, nine county clerks returned
to Wausau with him on Thursday last
spending that day in this city and vi
cinity.
Mr.. Kuhlmann says he felt that
these men ought to have the opportu-
nifty to see, at least, northern Wiscon-
sins Invest town and after they had
seen it, he says, some of them were
sort of distressed to think the county
clerks had not been asked to make
Wausau their next convention city.
The nine who spent the day here
were H. r. Tongen of Portage, Wis.
Sam Sletmark, of Prairie du Chen,
A. E. Bourn, of Stevens Point, Carl
Hermann of Medford, Joshua Jones
of Phillips, H. S. Offerdahl, of Judson,
Frank A. Cooper of Baraboo, Berle
Moore of Viroqua, and w. b. Stilwell
of Wautoma. The men seemed to en-
Joy the day here very much.
At Amigo thirty-five clerks attend
ed the convention which was replete
with discussions of an important char
acter Many things Of vital interest
to counties were discussed, among
them election laws. Every attempt
will be made to obtain a greater uni
formity of election laws or at least
the observance of election laws
throughout the state at future cleo
lions, which will simplify to great
extent the work of the county clerk.
Sometimes at the present time, the
proper tabulation of election returns
is made difficult because of the d.
versity in methods CT making returns
from precincts.

Unworthy Motto Of pu.eh ORIGIN.

The motto Of Harvard university
"Christo ct Ecclesiae," Is of Dutch
origin, according to statement made
By Clifford b. Clapp Of the Henry E.

in an address before the Colonial so

was undoubtedly taken from an In

omy the city hall feeling that an adj

much at the present time. The state

only reads that such municipalities

niggardIy salaries. predominant in send
ing their daughters to college.
Figures made public today from a cen
sus conducted by Mount Holyoke col
lege show that although slightly more
than three per cent of the entire male
population of the country are profess

dents thre registered their fathers as
professional men.
While the professional men are most
interested in sending their daughters to
college the farmers are least interested,
the census showed. Thirty-six per cent
of the men in the country are engaged
in agriculture, but only eight per cent
of the girls in college come from the
farms.
Next to the professional men, the
tradesmen are most interested in edu-
eating their daughters. Ten per cent OF

Can't Explain High TEN

WASHINGTON, April 10 Causes
underlying the unusually warm weather
of early spring this year remain a mys-
terry to weather bureau officials. But re-
ports show, they say, that March was
one of the warmest in the history of the
country. breaking all known records for
high temperatures at some weather bu-
reau stations in the East.
One contributing reason for the high
March record. they stated was the sue
cession of bright, clear days, during a
month when blustery winds, clouds and
storms usually prevail. But what caused
this succession of bright clear days, the

LABOR REPLIES TO
GARY'S STATEMENTS
Uni0nism Does Not Seek to Destroy -
Ready to Rest Case With
the Public

NEW YORK. April 2O.-Thc Central
Trades and Labor Council of Greater
New York. representing approximately
~ 600 union workers. issued Il statement
Monday night replying TO Chairman FL
bert II. Gary's criticism of labor unions
in an address Monday at the annual
meeting of the United States Steel corpo-
ration.
"Organizcd labor will rest its case
with the general public" said the state
mcnt. If the interests that Judge Gary
represents will agree TO do 50 without
any ramifcatiOnS.
His statement that uniOniSm seeks to
destroy is far from the truth and can be
testified TO by hundreds of employers in
this country who know different. That
uniOniSm makes for inCfficiencv and high
cost also is a fallacy. His advocacy of
the open shop is really a closed shop
against union labor.
Charging that the steel trust and
other corporations supported large lob
bie4 i'm the legislative halls of our various
states and our national government the
statement asked:
why is it not fair for the workers to
do the same thing
Judge Gary evidently believes that
the labor movement of today should be
no further advanced than the serfs were
hundreds of years ago. when the labor OF
human beings was a commodity owned by
its master.
Mr.. Gary's reference to the large
funds being created for the purpose of or
gauZing the workers in the trade unions
denotes alarm. Secretly capital organ

view it, is jhe fact that We cannot real
