Briefly, it said: “The difficulty of finding men of ability who can afford to spare from their own affairs the time and energy necessary to look after the affairs of a big estate; the disinclination to burden a competent friend who might possibly have the leisure, with details for a considerable period of time; the lack of requisite ex perience or ability for handling large interests on the part of members of one’s own family—these are all reasons which predominate in the selection of a trust company as executor.” FORTUNES ARE SPENT DAILY in insur ance premiums in order that men of affairs may leave their families amply provided for after death. Often these premiums are maintained at great sacrifice, and yet the care and handling of large amounts oF money is left to some friend or individual. THE INTEGRITY OF THE FRIEND is usually beyond question but the average man of affairs is too busy with his own business matters to give to your estate the same care and attention which you would bestow. Trust companies, organized and maintained under strict legislative laws, solve this per plexing problem and offer to the man of wealth and the man of moderate means equal surety that their estates will be properly and economically administered. If you have any matter of a trust nature to be taken care of you can do nothing wiser or business like than to place it in the hands of the - I WISCONSIN VALLEY TRUST CO.

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT On Monday, Feb. 26th, John Zim mermann, Jr., aged 22 years, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Zimmermann of the town of Plover, met with an ac cident which caused the loss of his right at m betw 'ten the wrist and the, elbow. He was cutting feed in a power cutter when his hand was caught between the rollers and before the machine could be stopped he was injured as stated. His father, mother anti brother were at hand, and the men stopped the machine as quickly as possible, while the young man's mother caught him about the waist and kept his arm from being drawn in further. Dr. Baker and an assist ing surgeon wore called from Birnam wood and the arm dressed as soon as it was possible for them to get there and he is getting along as well as can be expected. The young man is very popular in the town of Plover and his many friends hope for his ! early recovery.

A writer in the Milwaukee Sentinel of Sunday gives some good advice which all concerned should follow, viz.: According to reports from all parts of the state, the snowfall of the pres ent winter is almost unprecedented, and in the opinion of many old timers in the various sections, the liklihood of exceptional high water and floods in the event of a rapid thaw this spring, is imminent. Precautions against flood water a# the result of rapid melting or of ice jams in the rivers are being taken in many communities where experience has taught the dangers which are like ly to follow a winter such as the pres ent. Ihe snow has not been heavier in the northern counties of the state than in those of the central and southern section. From Grand" Rapids, the cen tral city of the state, and located on the Wisconsin river, comes the report that there has been more snow in that vicinity this winter than in any previous year back to 1381. Old set tlers there do not anticipate a flood in their immediate neighborhood, but they do predict unusual high water which may prove a danger at other points on the stream. The suspension of railroad traffic on all four roads touching Grand Rapids, as has occurred at different times dur ing the winter, is declared by resi dents to have been something entirely new in the history of the city. The paper mill people along the Wisconsin river from Biron to Nekoo sa are reported to be preparing for threatened floods. In previous years the dams at Biron and Grand Rapids have been threatened by high water. In the heavy woods, farther north, surrounding Wausau, the snow aver ages three feet on the level, it is said. Drifts through the hill country are said to be larger than for twenty years. At one point near Wausau, Milwaukee road crews ware obliged to make a cut several hundred feet in length through fourteen feet of snow. The entire fall of snow, which be gan in November, is still on the ground in this vicinity. The few mild days since that time have only served to set tle the heavy covering; none of it has melted, it is said. Roadways higher than the fences are not uncommon in the vicinity of Wausau, and it is de clared that in many instances it has been necessary to abandon regular roads and lay out new paths across ilelds and along logging trails. There is some apprehension of floods at Wausau, although it is felt by those who have considered the situ ation that the many dams and reser voirs along the river can take care of most of the surplus water. It is point ed out that many of the tributaries of the Wisconsin river are of consider able size and drain large areas. Mill men hope that the spring break up will be gradual. LAM) ( LEAKING CAMPAIGN That upper Wisconsin needs more cows will be agreed to by everyone. That result will follow the speeding up of land clearing in the northern counties. No other result is possible. Cows mean prosperity and that is what the 1917 land clearing cam paign means. The campaign for more and .better cows is a grand one, but behind it there is an overwhelming necessity for more cleared acres. Let’s have a speeding up of land clearing. The conspiracy against stumps that J s involved in the land clearing cam paign for 1917 is generally looked up on from a strict dollars and cents standpoint. It means more than that although that would be enough. It means that land clearing is to be made easier as well as cheaper. The mod ern stump pullers and pilers and the proper use of dynamite removes heavy work. It is no longer “backbreaking work,” but it is as pleasant and healthful as any outdoor labor—as easy a'S operating a cleared farm. Let everyone spread this information and upper Wiscc„ -in will speedily come into its own. An acre of potatoes next fall "'will pay for the material required to clear several acres of stumps, but the thing just now is to plan to clear the land. DEDICATION EXERCISES Last Friday evening the new school bouse in district No. 4, town of Maine, was dedicated with proper ceremonies. A large number were present at, the dedication and among those giving ad dresses were J. E. Giessel, Marathon county superintendent, C. B. Stanley, principal of the Training school at New London, I. C. Painter, principal of the Wausau High school, Randall Johnson, principal of the Marathon County Training school, Miss Minnie Thompsoi}, a faculty member of the Training school here, C. G. Krueger and Edward Gensmann. The senior class of the Training school enter tained the gathering with songs. Tb p teacher of this school. Miss Agnes L’T jeqvist. had arranged an interesting program for the occasion, which was creditably rendered by the children. The evening’s program closed by all singing “America.” The school build ing was then inspected and found to be a model structure. PRODUCTIVE CUTOVER LANDS Up in Marinette county a thriving little village has been started at what is known as the Cedarville lumber camp. Thirty families have located there. “Some of the finest potatoes, buck wheat and wheat of the world is be ing grown where stumps ‘grew’ a few years ago,” says one of the settlers. "When we arrived stumps were the ! only tlr'ng in sight. But we planted vegetables and grain between them ] and immediately set abo®t getting rid of the stumps by fire and dynamite. It : is a hard fight against the tenacious | roots, but the result is land to be proud of. We would never think of 1 leaving the home which has been so hard to build out of a practical wilder ness." HEAT CUT OFF The McCrossen heading plant sprung a leak the other day and the stores and offices connected had to provide various means to keep warm for a day. The plumbers had to take out quita a section of pipe that had been eaten through by rust. These trou bles are unavoidable and come to us all now and then. . WEEKLY WEATHER FORECAST For the week beginning Sunday, March 4. 1917: Cold weather at the beginning of the week will be fol lowed by much warmer weather gfter- Monday. The weather will be gener ally fair except that rain or snow is probable Thursday or Friday. WAllSAli, WiS. ( TIiESPAY, MARCH 6, 1917.

The remains were taken to the home of his daughter, Mrs. Alfred .C. Hunger, 906 South Third avenue, from where the funeral took place yesterday afternoon. Rev. Donald West had charge of the servic es. Members of the local camp of the United Spanish War Veterans acted as pall bearers. Burial followed in Pine Grove cemetery. The deceased was born in Pommern, Germany, February 17, 1841, being seventy-six years of age. He came to this country with his parents in 1857. The Baerwald family located on Big Rib river, where they lived.for some time, and later moved to Wausau.

He wants to give up lumber ing and go into the barber business. If you don’t believe that Jake is a first class v barber just ask Justice J. X. Brands. Jake took possession of a barber shop the other day dur ing thq proprietor’s alienee; Justice Brands came along and wanted a “clean shave.” Jake used up about thirteen bars of soap on the Judge’s face and yet the Judge is not happy, but thinks that a little experience will make Jake a successful shavist.

DOINGS OF THE LEGISLATURE The bill to give grocery stores and butcher shops the privilege of doing business on Sunday and the bill for the taxation of church property have been killed. s The bill giving the cities the right to furnish ice, fuel and heaf has been amended limiting the provisions to fuel and ice. The bill was en grossed by a vote of 60 to 22. The senate has adopted i\ memorial to congress for enactment of legis lation to protect migratory birds. A bill has been introduced providing a standard for marketing apples and grading the apple output. A plan has been introduced to vote all of the rural districts dry by a leg islative act, without a referendum. The measure, if passed, would take ef fect June 30, 1917. There is a measure before the leg islature which, if passed, will permit county boards to issue bonds for the development of natural resources. The idea of the measure is to give county boards an opportunity to develop water powers, and it is said that if the measure becomes a law there are quite a number of counties in the nor thern part of the state in which these powers will be developed, and the county will sell the power thus devel oped to farmers. The assembly committee on print ing reported for indefinite postpone ment the Miller bill prohibiting anony mous communications to the news- j papers and the Hansen bill to repeal the law requiring political candidates to state on their advertisement who pays for it and how much. The question of the divorce of breweries and wholesale liquor deal ers from any, ownership in a retail liq uor business which has been before previous legislatures, will be Y>ne of the excise questions which will attract attention in this legislature before the session is concluded. It is the claim of the saloon keepers that a great many of the objections to the liquor traffic will be done away with if brewery control of saloons is ended. The great fight over the prohibition question has formally begun in Wis consin, and the first official hearing before the legislature was held on Wednesday afternoon on the question as to whether or not Wisconsin shall be given an opportunity to become a dry state. # President Wilson has sent his thanks to the members of the legisla ture for the support which it accorded in this international crisis. A letter from President Wilson was read in the senate and the assembly as fol lows : White House, Washington, D. C., Feb 24, 1917, My dear Mr. Speaker. I thank you and everyone concerned for the gen erous assurance expressed in the res olution adopted by the Wisconsin leg islature and I beg that you will tell the of the two houses how grateful I am for their approbation and their pledge of iupport. Cordiallv and sincerely yours, WOODROW' WILSON. BUILDING NEW LINES The Wisconsin Telephone company has a crew of men at work in the i city completing the work of the com pany in the southern and western ! parts of our city. The past year the | company changed its course in pass ; ing through the city, crossing the river in the southern part of the city and going west to Abbotsford, Colby and other towns, and north to Merrill and points above. From the west side the Wausau Telephone company’s build ing is reached through the latter’s conduits under ground. It is the purpose of the Wisconsin company to build another copper cir cuit between W r ausau and Stevens Point tcf connect with the lines built to the latter city. This will vastly better the long distance service to all points, such as Milwaukee, Chicago and other cities. The new copper cir cuit line is to be continued north to Merrill, Tomahawk atfd Rhinelander. I Fielders—B. W. Pulling, Ales | Craven, and Orlando Holwav. Other professional men: Pitcher—Dell McCrossen. Catcher—Mark Beilis. Ist base—Dr. J. E. Garrey. 2nd base B. Thayer. 3rd base—Rev. Chas. L. Logan. Short stop—Dr. Win. Wylie. Fielders—R. H. Johnson, VaJ. Rin gle and Dr. H. J. Fleischer. Boiled down, the report says that Hoyt looked like a Grecian' Hera; Pulling was in an aesthetic costume of gray and crimson; Neal Brown looked like anew edition of Hercules, ready to relieve Atlas of his heavy burden for all eternity, if need be. In easy dignity, Grace; in agility, Pradt, and Craven; in graceful abandon, James and Hoi way; in spirited enthu siasm, Bardeen could not be sur passed. Dell McCrossen demonstrated his ability to pitch a curved ball which bothered the disciples of Blackstone. His secret was to cut off the left hind button of his pants and the bearing of the suspender on the right shoul der drew fhe ball to the right every time. Mark Beilis, though not a mem ber of the professions, shed honor up on them all. Rev. Logan, in the pre cipitous descent from the garb of a Methodist clergman to the negligee of .a baseball player, seemed to have halted midway in the translation; Johnson’s face was overcast with gloom, while Thayer looked like a man who is handling edged tools and doesn’t know it; Drs. Garrey and Hall displayed signs of previous famil iarity with the game. Ringle watched the ball and kept out of the way, and doctors Wylie and Fleischer looked well to their digits. At the end of the sth inning the game stood 30 to 18 in favor of the lawyers,' but they were fast reaching their iimit of endurance, Avhile the other side were just getting their sec ond wind. The lawyers cried quits. Suspicions quickly arcse that a dis creditable motive instigated the de mand, but a medical examination was made upon the spot-and Drs. Hall, Gaf rey, Fleisher and Wylie reported that Hoyt had taken a were cold in his deltoid muscles', Bardeen *was threatened with apoplexy; Grace was losing flesh at the rate of a pound a minute; James had a sprained ankle, and Craven was suffering from a se vere attack of the gout, so the game was called off. WAUSAU’S FIRST ROAD The Stevens Point Gazette publishes in its last issue an interesting ac count of the first road laid out from Big Bull Falis to Fort Winnebago, in 1844. The account was found in an old record iir the Portage county court house. The book contains the official proceedings of the board of commissioners for the year ISB4. The commissioners were: Mathias Mit chell, Benjamin F. Berry and Luther Houghton. The territory included what is now Columbia county, the county seat of which Js Portage, on the south and runs clear through to Lake Superior, and had a population of about 1,000. Portage was then Fort Winnebago; Mosinee, Little Bull Falls, and Wausau, Big Bull Falls. John B. Duboy and Wm. H. Tanner were ap pointed to pick out the most practica ble route for a road between the two pointy They made their report on the 6th day of July, 1844. Clark Whitney, county surveyor, laid out the road and presented his bill Oct. 23, 1884, which was $126.75. The distance was 126% miles. There is quite a difference in the cost of laying out in those pioneer times and the present day. Jnst think of a road being laid out for one dollar a mile. TO INCORPORATE VILLAGE OF ELIIERON In the matter of incorporation of the village of Elderon, before Judge Reid in circuit court last week, one petition was filed by M. L. Smith and others and a second by A. J. Plowman and others. The petition of Mr. Smith and others came up first for hearing. An order was entered appointing in spectors of election and the day for election for which notices had been posted is March 20. On this day it will be decided by the electors which ter ritory will be incorporated. The pe tition of Mr. Smith and others pro poses to incorporate a piece of terri tory one mile square. The petition of Mr. Plowman and others proposes to incorporate a strip a mile and a half by a mile and three-quarters. ST. OTHER INSPECTION The annual inspection of St. Omer Commandery, No. 19, K. .T., takes place next Tuesday evening at the Masonic Temple. P. H. Sperry of Manitowoc, is Inspector General.

It never has to be changed —thus eliminating the an noyance of having to use a new needle for every record played. The Pathe Sapphire glides smoothly in the grooves of the Records, catching the soun'tl waves from forty points or direct, constant contact and reproducing music in a way that no steel needle can ever equal. All the delicate overtones hitherto considered impossi ble of reproduction through mechanical are glori ously brought out through the combination of the Pathe Sapphire Ball with the Pathe All-Wood Sound Chamber. The Pathe Catalog com prises the largest number of selections in the world, including leading American and European artists, and opening up to Pathe owners a repertoire of music of truly wonderful variety.
