FORMAL CEREMONY HELD
AT ST. PAUL'S SUNDAY
MORNING

Gerhard Grauer, son of the Rev. and
Mrs. E. G. Grauer of this city, was or
dained as a pastor of the Evangelical
Church of North America at formal
service last Sunday morning at ST.
PauPs Evangelical church by his faith
er, who acted under the direction of
the synod, assisted by the Rev Carl
L. Grauer of Fond du Lac, a cousin,
and the Rev. M. Schmidt of Merrill.
Only one service took place in the
morning and 1900 people completely
filled the large auditorium at ST. PauPs
church, there being many school
friends of the young pastor among the
congregation.
Ordination Sermon
The order of service included sew
eral selections by the well trained
choir of the church and duet by
Mrs. Frank Boettcher and Miss Selma
Lotz, following which the Rev. G. L..
Grauer, brother of Rev. Grauer of ST.
Paul's preached the ordination SER
mon. The sermon, delivered in Ger
man, admonished both the new pas
tor and the laymen as to the duties and
obligations of both. At the opening
of church the four, Reverends G. L.
and E. C. Grauer, Rev. M. Schmidt
and Mr.. Gerhar Grauer had marched
up the aisle of the church, taking their
seats.
Gerhard Grauer was then charged
with the duties of a pastor by his faith
er and the congregation likewise adj
monished of its duties to an Evangeli-
cal pastor. The new pastor, who has
grown up in WauSau and was known
by all those present, then addressed a
brief sermon to the congregation, us
ing as his text Romans l, 16: IL.
"a person can understand how men
were ashamed of Christ as he moved
about the villages of Galilee," he said.
Born in a humble and maladorous viii
lage-can any good thing come out
of Nazareth ?-living in the deepest
obscurity, then suddenly appearing
with a claim to be Messiah yet con-
tradicting the warmest hopes of Is
rael. 1t is not to be wondered at, that
there was disappointment or that
many were ashamed of Jesus and His
gworks.
Why Ashamed N0ws
''But the thing that is difficult to
understand is how any man can be
ashamed of Jesus now. For now he is
no longer rejected and despised as
in the days when Paul wrote this epis-
tie to the Romans.
IF the question would be put to
you, Are you ashamed of Christi l
believe the reply would be in the neg
ative. But, dear friends, have we not,
especially we younger people, been
somewhat negligent in our profession
of Christ? We are not ashamed of

new RULING TO
AFFECT WOMEN
INDUSTRIAL COMMISSION
MAKES 25c MINIMUM
WAGE PER HOUR

Not Immediately but in time the new
ruling of the Wisconsin Industrial
commission is likely to have a marked
effect upon women now working in
manufacturing plants of this city. The
order recently issued by the commits
sion and to become effective on Au-
gust 1st, is the result of series of
hearings that We're held in various
parts of the state, one of which was
held in this city on June 3rd.
New Minimums
No employer shall employ any fe-
male over II years of age or any boy
between II and q years of age in
any occupation, trade or industry, not
a seasonal industry, at lesser hourly
rate than Is indicated below:
Experienced employees in cities
with population of 500 or more
-------------------- 25c
Experienced employees employed
over 6 months) -------- 22c
inexperienced employees during
first three months in the indus
Try -------------------- l6c
Inexperienced employees during
the second three months in the
industry -------------------- zoe
Local employers do not expect any
serious situation to develop as a re-
suit of the ruling, "It is quite likely
that this will mean ultimate substi-
tuition of men for women" one en-
ployer told The Pilot, especially in
those industries in which men are
more capable workers than women.
do not think it was particularly wise
to change the ruling at this time,
period of decreasing wages and costs
of living"
Already Signified
Some employers have already sig
nitied their intention of letting some
women out of their employ shortly,
others to follow.
The Marathon Shoe company, one Of
the largest employers OF women, does
not expect the Industrial commission
ruling to make any material differ
ence. Most of our employees are al
ready making above the minimum"

working plants will in all probability
be affected and men will take the
place of women in some of them grad
