OCCURRENCES OFLONG AGO
ITEMS OF INTEREST BOILED DOWN FROM
THE WA AUSAU PILOT SO YEARS AGO

renee university in which Ripon coll
lege took part. During the athletic
exercises, Fay Jones, son of our pop
ular townsman, j. A. Jones, carried
off a number of the best prizes. He
won the 100 yard dash in twelve Sec
onds; he was first in the running
broad jump and cleared seventeen feet
and also won the 200 yard dash, time,
twenty-five seconds.
A number of our most reliable citi-
zens are relating a story Of having
seen fish of most prodigious size in
Big Rib river, the Szame being eight
or ten feet long. Nhas the appear
ance of being of the muskellonge fam
lily and has been seen by three differ
ent persons in the past week in the
neighborhood of the mouth of Little
Rib. We have marked our brain a
good deal lately wondering what has
become of the 10000 trout planted
in Rib six or seven years ago by Hon.
w. G. Silverthorn; the mystery is
solved. This is the monster that has
been feeding on the tender trout and
should be fished out forthwith.
F. p. Stone of this city and Ed
Stult, of Philadelphia, are fishing in
the Eagle waters and last Saturday
they sent down a large box of mus
kellonge to be distributed among their
friends. They were monsters and in
dicate that those kind of fish are
plentiful in those waters.

same in the future.

The meetings were all of a religious
character. About $50 attended this
conference, this body being made up
of the pastor of each church in the
state and one layman from each con-
gregation. The government of this
particular synod is most democratic.
The general officers have no authority
to act upon any questions without first
submitting them to district confer
ences. Once every four years dele
gates are elected to the general con-
ference when church laws or regula-
tions are passed upon. The wishes
of the majority of pastors and lay
men are certain in this system to
be given full consideration.
Officers elected are; Rev. H. Meier,
Milwaukee, president; Rev. e. J.,
Fleer, Milwaukee, vice president;
Rev. Grauer, Wausau, secretary, and
Rev. R. G. GrUenwald, Wauwatosa,
treasurer. The visitors at Merrill
were made to feel much at home and
the programs were excellent.

CITY PLANNING
IS DISCUSSED
OFFICIALS HEAR MUCH ON
SUBJECT AT STATE
CONVENTION

The Wisconsin League of Munich
palities held its annual convention at
Appleton last week and was attend
ed by Mayor Emil Flatter, p. 7. Stone,
city attorney, Thos. Malone, chief of
police, and Frank Malone, all of whom
motored over returning Friday. The
convention discussed many new in
Productions that are proving valuable
TO municipalities, chief among them
the idea Of city planning
According to Mr.. Stone city plan
ming ordinances have been adopted
by Green Bay, GAINESVILLE, Madison
and Appleton, all of which have been
making special efforts to separate
manufacturing, residence and busi-
ness districts. The ordinances are not
retroactive but do provide definitely
for the future and provide adequately
for expansion without destroying the
beauty OF the towns or injuring in
dustrial possibilities. Public hear,
ings on the work accomplished by
city planning committees have been
held in these cities and i'm few cases
have there been any complaints that
have not been adjusted satisfactorily.
The home rule bill was also taken
up and after much discussion, favora-
bly, and unfavorably, it was carried
1T calls upon legislature to give great
er power to municipalities in the mat
ter of legislation.
When at Appleton the local repre-
sentatives questioned various persons
about the silent poifcemen that an
advertising company has agreed to
install at street intersections free of
charge. This matter was discussed at
the last meeting of the common coun-
Gil and was laid over until the next
meeting for investigation. The local
delegates found that these silent po-
licemen are Instructions and THAI
they entail great danger at street
crossings. Two or three serious cas-
es are pending, it is understood, in
cities that have installed silent po-
licemen Of the type proposed and
one OF the Wausau men was informed
that Reedsburg very much wishes to
take them out but that 1t cannot on
account of the contract the city en-
tered into.

Issue Appeal
The following word has been issued
by the Marathon county committee ex-
planning several reports of conditions
that have been received:
"These cablegrams state that no
rain has fallen in many sections OF
the Near East and near the Caucasus
for several months. A severe famine
has resulted and thousands of the
Armenian farmers with their families
have died from starvation and dis
ease.
''The Near East RELIEF was charter
ed by Congress to care for the or
Dhans whose parents were killed in
Turkish massacres and it has still
10000 of these orphans of the war in
its care.
upon the urgent appeal and rec
ommendation of President Harding
and leading officials both Catholic and
Protestant, the Near East Relief has
assumed the burden of caring for not
only the war orphans but also for
the famine refugees.
'tToday this great humane organiza-
tion is the only one which stands be-
tween the starvation and death of
thousands of the Armenian farmers
and their children. 1t is today car
ing for 10000 orphans of the famine
and also giving ration of one-half
pound of bread per day to 100000
famine refugees.
America Alone
america alone began, and America
alone can save these stricken peo-
Dle Each state and county is asked
asked to save 1872 orphans as it's fair
quota.
"Five dollars saves life for one
month, $4,000 aves one for an entire
year If you cannot give $500, give
at least $1.00. Every bit helps. Sign
and 1ill out the attached coupon or
send such amount as you can afford
to our Treasurer or to any one Of our
committee"
Following are the several endorse
ments of the movement that are be-
ing used by the local committee in
its campaign:
ITO Whom 1t May Concern:
"The Endorsement committee of the
Wausau Chamber of Commerce has
Investigated the Near East Relief as
sociation, and found it to be worthy
organization efficiently operating on
a very narrow overhead charge, and
recommends that all who feel able
to do so, support it literally.
Very truly yours,

FUR PRODUCING AREAS
CREATED By THE SAW

= Much mental effort has been expend-
ed in recent years in the solution OF
the problem of the use Of cut over
lands in the South. An experienced
trapper, who knows every o Of
ground in the territory north and west
OF Lakes Maurepas and Pontchartrain,
at a recent visit to the Conservation
Department. declared that nature had
settled that problem in the section
with which he Is acquainted. The cut
ting OF timber in the bottoms and
swampy sections surrounding these
two lakes, he says, Is becoming pro-
ductive at once by reason Of the occu-
patton OF the denuded land by fur-bear-
ing animals When the trees are cut
there Immediately springs up a dense
underground hat makes an ideal resi-
dence for coon, mink. otter and other
wild creatures that afford rich returns
to the trappers Of the section. The
importance OF this occupation can be
seen when Il is stated that n trapper
this last aso made $4,000 net in tho
three months OF trapping. This sum
was reaped without the Investment Of
any capital except about 800 expended
for traps and bait. The merchant to
whom the trapper sold the fur did not
clear this much, despite the fact that
he had everything he possessed invest
cd in his business.
This trapper said this cut over land
was making as profitable returns as it
would make had 1t, by vast expendi-
ture OF labor and capital, been fully
cleared and prepared for the pillow.
