member Ladysmith with pleasure

est bodies of trained professional men
that has ever visited our city. Edi-

entertainment, and they will have the
privilege of going through the mills
of he Great Western Paper

knowledge of how print paper, which
enters largely into their own business,
is made. No doubt many of them,
who have used paper all their lives,
have never actually seen paper made.
Wisconsin Newspaper Business
There are about $50 newspapers, ag-
ricultural papers, religious papers.
and periodicals published in Wiscon-
sin. 1t is a big business when con-

newspapers compare very fayOrably

newspapers stand in the front rank.
