ENTERTAIN MANY
TOURISTS AT PARK
HUNDREDS HAVE STOPPED
IN CITY SINCE
JUNE

Hundreds of tourists have stopped
in Wausau since the beginning Of the
summer season, remaining overnight
either at Marathon park where the
county maintains free camping site,
or at the Bells Hotel. Those who
prefer the conveniences of home go
to the hotel but there are many more
than ever before who are this year
travelling with tents and full equip
ment for living out of doors.
Visit Marathon. park any time now
and the first thing that strikes the
eye is the tented city toward the
northwest of the grounds. Scattered
throughout that area there will be
found from ten to thirty tents. Camp
tables and chairs are in evidence,
fires are brilliant and at the meal
hours the inviting odors permeate the
whole grounds Bernard Zielsdorf,
caretaker of the park, takes much
pride in keeping the grounds immac-
ulate. He says that the tourists ap-
preciate the effort that is made to
keep the property in satisfactory
shape. "They have especially praised
the conveniences that we have near
at hand" says Mr.. Zielsdorf, "and
many OF them have stated that Mara
thon park is the finest free camping
site they have ever visited. We en-
tertained two parties on Monday, Mr..
and Mrs. Floyd Knott of Chicago, and
Mr.. and Mrs. Throbald of Maroa, Illi-
nois, both of whom had been ON the
road seven weeks. They said that on
their entire trip they had not found
such an agreeable and beautiful spot
as Marathon park"
On Friday last there were twenty
eight tourists camping at the park. on
Saturday, twenty-five, sunday, twelve
and Monday sixteen. Sunday and Mon
day, according to Mr.. Zielsdorf, are
always light days.

DIR, HERBERT WORK

A casual consideration of the quail .Heations Of Dr Herbert Work, newly .appolntod Postmaster General, brings .out the fact that he Is q politician of some considerable experience, and, In ai probability, of considerable .shrewdness, else win Hays would not have secured his assistance in the last political campaign,
 Frankly, this fact does not recom- mend pr, Work especially in the minds of people nt this time, Tho fact should moi prejudice people against him, however, The post of Postmas- ter General is peculiarly close to the people and the personality of the in- .cumbcnt and his ability are, therefore, matters of great interest, A medical man possessing executive and political ability discloscs rare combination of characteristics. Possibly versatility will be of usc 10 the new cabinet olilct, AtTlalnly tno peOplc are RlHu to know that he did his share in the world war, The commission of licu-- tenant colonel of the medcial corps, therefore, is perhaps the best recom- mendation that has been presented thus far, although there may be others of far greater import which arc not known to the people in general.
 There is no position in the cabinet in which man may more quickly obtain praise from the people than in this. Whether the head of the depart ment is to blame or not, people laud him as their mail comes and goes promptly, criticize him if there is a delay.
 May the new Postmaster General receive nothing but praise through the mail that, it is to be hoped, will be delivered on time.

GETTING SOMEWHERE

Probably no class of men would be happier than would be the ex-scrivce men if there is discovered some way to pay bonus, including some means of raising cash immediately without attendant or resultant embarrassment which would satisfy the whole coun- try.
 The suggestion now made of the certificate idea, on which cx-service men could borrow cash, indicates the truth of the old saying where there's a will there's way" The details of the plan have not been worked out sufficiently to pass upon the merits absolutely but its submission shows the value of Keeping everlastingy at it."
 Before any bonus bill is passed il is believed, start having been made, that some plan will be found that will bring satisfaction to the ex-serv- ice men and satisfaction to the coun- try generally that at last the obliga- ton so sacredly incurred has been recognized.
 Casually the men whose compensa- tion in cash would be less than $50 are mentioned. The very little inn portance given to such men shows | the failure of men of means to appre- ciate what $25 or $30 or even $10 might mean to some ex-service men who, perhaps, spent but a week in training camp. They fail to realize that there are thousands of friendless ex-soldiers, taken by the draft from their homes-men who went to camp in practically rags, without an extra shirt to their backs-men to whom a ten dollar bill would look bigger than a s1, ,0o0 note seems to the men who are talking so carelessly about those whose cash compensation would be less than $50
 Much of the trouble about the bonus has arisen from just such abso- lute inability on the part of "big men" to appreciate the situation of eX- service men in many cases-has re- suited from failuR to understand the troubles of "the other fellow"

CONTRIBUTED.
WE CANNOT REPAY
Written Upon the Arrival of Lieut.
 EdUy'S Body

The Almighty ill his wisdom has decreed that man cannot compensate those who have made the greatest sacrifice. It has been provided that any gratitude within our power to express is so paltry in comparison with the magnitude of the service given that our loudest shouts of praise are less audible to he who has given than the faintest murmur of breeze in the trees.
 Second Lieutenant H. Leslie Eddy, ID. s. C., a New Britain boy was privileged to make that sacrifice. He died as gallantly as any knight of yore in battle. He achieved the greatest glory and now his body has been re- turned to the soil of this community.
 He died a patriot,
 Would that this pen were vested with power to scratch the fact in- delibly into the heart of every citizen of this community
 Patriotism is at ebb tide. We give little enough credit to the genuine patriot. Sometimes the soldier feels that his duress was all in vain. Many who have a great flow of patriotic phrases on their tongues have scarce ly any in their hearts and our form Ter service men are so disappointed that they cannot help but feel that their country is ungrateful. It is some consolation to know that Lieutenant Eddy died without that disappoint- Iment in his heart.
 To have known the boy as a com rade in arms during his training was Ia privilege and to bear virtues that he was square sincere and able sol dier is a solemn duty.
 Having eaten from the same dish, washed in the same trough and slept lin the same shack with a man gives some Knowledge of his ideals, hopes and plans and it can only be said that Lieutenant Eddy had all those quail ties that heroes are made of.
 The Distinguished Service Cross that General Pershing awarded ac- knowlcdges the nations debt to it's is cannot repay him. It is for the cti- zens of New Britain to realize that there is not one thing that they can do that is great enough to discharge their debt to him or to any of his falen comrades but to be as grateful as God gives them ability to be for the lives that were laid down in their behalf.

VIEW TT THIS WAY

Bishop E. Shaler of the Episcopal but he asserts that men who play on Sunday have no right to employ boy caddies Sunday mornings because it keeps them out of Sunday school. Good advice, viewed superfcially and irs accordance with tradition which, sad to say, if too often inspired by the superficial.
 But there is another angle from which the situation may be viewed, Men who play golf Sunday mornings and do not go to church are hardened sinners. of course. Boys who do not go to Sunday school, whether they .caddy CT not, may be sinners but they are not as yet hardened" sinners. Why not devise way to benefit both classes of sinners?
 Most or the goods things of the world arc the results Of compromise. 1t may be impossible to reform the Sunday morning golfers to the extent of keeping them from their game. 1t may be impossible to persuade the young boy sinners 10 go to Sunday school. Why not induce the worst boys, who, incidentally usually make the best caddies, to go to the links Sunday mornings, if they cannot be urged into the Sunday schools, and why not induce the hardened golfers to teach the things the boys would learn in Sunday school-teach by the splendid example they would set of proper behavior and proper language and, on occasions, the utterance of some worth while prccept of life?
 The result of this arrangement would not be a case of ''thc blind leading the blind" but a case of strong men shamcd into conversion to better life, better manner of speech gctic boys becoming men of brave saVoir faire, accustomed to right thoughts, true creeds Of life. The idea may be quite unorthodoX and perhaps it had better be withdrawn in favor of one advising boys and men to stay away from tho links Sunday morn ings This would he donc-only the suggestion would be absolutely hope less.
