Junior Voice Recital.


Misses Hoke, Bordeaux, Rogers,
Love and Grace, Junior Voice pupils
Of Miss Brown were heard IN brill
liant recital at the College last We'd
nesday evening. Although Miss
Browns recitals are always en-
joyable, this one was marked by an
unusually beautifully program reta-
dered with remarkable proficiency of
technique and great depth of feeling.
The program was composed of att
tractive operate numbers and charm
ing little songs of exquisite senti-
ment and melody. All the voices
showed excellent and persistent train
ing evidenced by their adequate range,
clearness of tone, perfection of ex-
preston, and distinctness of pro-
nunciation. The operate numbers
which were rendered in French were
sung with facility that was truly
delightful, and which reflects much
credit on the French, as we'll as the
voice department.
Besides the solos, the audience es-
specially appreciated the quartette
which was an adaptation of the ever
beloved "Blue Danube WaItzes," and
the arrangement of the famous song
from I'll Trovatore," "Ah, / Have
Sighed to Rest Me-" The young
ladies rendered the former with a
vivacity that was as captivating as
Charming May" itself, and the lat
ter, with a real poignancy of emot-
ion. We should relish keenly more.
of this kind Of singing.

Maine The purchase of this mountain
the past century and an inspiration to
the new.
Unlike most projects that call for the
expenditure of a considerable sum of
money, this park will prove to be an
asset to the State from which will be
derived both direct and indirect In
come. The establishment of some
great institutions by the State creates
for all time burden on the public
treasury but this park will prove q
safe investment in lands and timber,
an investment which will increase in
value with the passing years.
I bring this project. to your attention
as one which our late Governor en-
dorsed without reservation. In his in
augural he says:
"By sound principles Of public pol
icy. reinforced by party pledge. we are
committed to the establishment of a
State Park and forest reserve. to the
conservation of our forests. to a pro-
gram Of reforestation of cut-over and
burned land, and to the development
Of waterpower resources within the
State"
The establishment of this park will
lay the foundation of policy where
by the present generation will deliver
a great inheritance to the generations
to come.
Wild Land Values
In 1905 an appropriation of $500, was
made for the purpose Of cruising the
wild lands Of the State in order to as
certain their value for the purpose of
taxation. and since then an increased
appropriation has been made by sue
ceeding Legislatures This work has
been conscientiousIy done under the

ROTARY CLUB ELECTS
OFFICERS FOR YEAR

The Wausau Rotary club held its
semi-monthly luncheon at st. Johns
Guild hall on Monday noon, when the
Rev. VIM. j. Taylor, pastor of the
First Universalist' church, spoke. Rev.
Taylor's address was on the Pilgrim
Fathers, the example of whom must
be emulated today if people expect to
succeed.
M. NJ Scholfield, a new member,
was introduced amid applause. He
was told that new member must tell
what induced him 20 become Rotar-
ian or draw his check for $500. To
this Mr.. Scholfield replied that he
would talk all afternoon rather than
draw the check. Applause prevented
this.
The election of officers then took
place, p. v. o. Van Vecbtan, Ira c..
Painter and E. X, Schuetz acting as
tellers. G. N. Harder, one of the
nominees for president, said that
owing to the fact that he was going
to Michigan to reside about July 1st,
he could not consider being can
didate. The name of OHM Mathie was
also withdrawn, as Mr.. Mathie is
moving to Milwaukee shortly to live.
A. p. Woodson was elected presi-
dent, George w. Phillips, vice-presi-
dent; V. Atherton secretary and Harry
Berger, treausrer.

RETAIL LUMBERMEN
FORM ORGANIZATION
ON THURSDAY LAST

Retail lumbermen representing Ma
rathon, Lincoln, Langlade, Portage,
Shawano. Oneida, Waupaca, Wood,
Villas and Forest counties organized
a Retail Lumbermen's association in
this city last Thursday, naming it the
Wisconsin Valley Lllmbermens club.
Walter H. Thorn, of the Builders Lum-
Der and Supply company of this city,
was elected chairman, and the execu-
tive committee is composed of e. E.
Finney, of Marshfield, C. o. Miller of
Amigo and E. c. Dawley of this city.
To Finance Farmers
One of the important matters COM
ing up before the new organization
was tho matter of financing farmers
in luil7ng operations this year 1T
is well .3nown that the banks are not
now inE position to carry more COM
mercia astaper," is the report sent The
Filot u, al committee, "and it was the
sense or the meeting that determined
effort be made to perfect some plan
which would assist the farmer to pro-
perly care for his crop and live stock.
1t is hoped that something definite
along these lines will be presented at
the next meeting which will be held
at Wausau on May 27th.'
The men who were present declared
that there is more building in progress
at present in small towns than in the
cities. Retail lumber prices were not
discussed, but lumbecnen believe that
wnen other commodities are reduced
in the same proportion as lumber has
been, business will promptly increase
in volume.
Object Cooperation
The purpose of the organization is
TO promote cooperation between the
buyer and seller and to aid the con-
sumer of building material in every
way possible. Those present were
pleased with the result. Donald S.
Montgomery, of Milwaukee, secretary
of the Wisconsin Retail Lumber asso-
citation, was present and presided.
Mr. Montgomery is a son of Mr.. and
Mrs. James Montgomery of this city.

FARM STOCKS OF HAY
LARGER THAN USUAL

Acreage of tame hay is estimated at
2,S04, 900 tons, $3.50 of last years acre
age and $50 more than the 5-year
average. A large acreage of old Glow
er in Northern Wisconsin was killed
by early low temperatures. While
last years seeding of clover quite
generally survived, the acreage sown
was, because of the high price of seed
last spring, much smaller than usual
Acreage of wild hay is estimated at
$4,000, approximately the same as
last year. Condition. of all hay on May
l was $50, compared to $40 a year
ago and 10-year average of S6To.
Farm stocks of hay are larger than
usual. A total of 633, 900 tons, 1870 of
the 1920 CROP remained on farms
May /, compared to 421, 900 tons $50
OF 1919 crop 2 year ago, and a 5-year
average of AL 900 tons (an average of
1910 of the preceding years crops).
While cattle were stall fed earlier
than usual last fall, the mild. winter
required lighter feeding than usual
and the marketing of hay was much
less than usual.
