The large pools Of water standing
on the streets are not there because
the sewers are not able to carry off
the water, but because the water is
not able to get into the sewers. If
you want them to disappear help out

the dead leaves away from in front of
the catch basins.

For Biennial Sessions

The first amendment, which was
proposed last year and laid over until
this convention, makes obligatory the
holding of biennial district conven-
tons, and changes the state conven-
ton from an annual meeting to BIZ
ennia1 one, the district and state con-
ventions tc come in alternate years,
and both to be held in the spring.
The holding of district conventions
would necessitate set of officers for
each district.
Sentiment for the Change
There is considerable sentin1entsifl
favor of the proposed change. Mrs.
Fannie M. D. Galloway of Eau Claire,
pleads for the change in a recent
mum Der of The Courant.
!. Mrs. Galloway, after setting forth
the advantages of holding the conven-
lions; ia the, spring, saysa nMSs
ssOnly those who have served ofsits
committees, realize the enormous
amount of work that goes to the plan
ming, of a convention. The expense
of holding II, both TO the federation
itself and to the entertaining club
and city, added to the head work I 4.
VOWED, necessitates a drain upon
mental and financial resources that is
almost paralysis, for the time befng,
to those Immediately concerned. To
release, on every other year, the en-
ergy thus absorbed, and allow it to be
turned into other important channels
of federation work, would be great
gain in many ways. The biennial

tee on0rdinance to Prepare
Curfew Law at Once
FEW WIRES UNDER GROUND
Council Considers the Paving of Many
Streets III the City But Most
Work Will be Left Over I'm
til Next Spring

It now looks very much as if the
city of Kenosha will have a currew
law as the members Of the city coun-
Gil at the meeting on Monday by a
! unanimous vote ordered the committee
on judiciary and ordinances to pre-
pare an ordinance at once which will
have the effect of clearing the streets
of small uoys and girls at the stroke
| of nine each evening The action of
the council was brought about by the
/ consideration of the petition present
ed by humane agent, J. H. Karnes.
TIE petition is signed by $50 of the
leading citizens and property owners
of the city and it seemed to strike a
sym pathetic chord in the council.
Since the matter was first brought up
several weeks ago the council has
been Investigating the workings
of the law in other cities in the state
and it is claimed that theIreports show
that the law would be good thing
for Kenosha. The council will meet
in adjourned session on Thursday
evening and it is thought that the
ordinance for the curfew will be ready
by that time. The committee will
set the hour to govern the boys and
girls and it is probable that it will be.
nine O'Clock in the summer months.
and eight O'Clock in the winter.
Fire Wires Under Ground
All ..fyi-t is to be made to have the
wires of the fire alarm system on the
principal streets of the city placed
under ground and it is thought that
this can be done without expense to
the city. The Wisconsin Telephone
company has asked the city for the
right to break open the pavement on
Market street for the purpose of put
ting in conduits and the council last
night voted to ask the company to
place the wires of the fire alarm sys-
tenn under ground at the same time
and at the expense of the telephone

The Bazaar.

The success achieved by the
Kings Daughters at the bazar Civ
en- by the circle at the opera house
last evening must be quite crafty
ing to the ladies who worked so
faithfully for the entertainment. A
large crowd was present and all
seemed 10 enjoy it immensely. The
various booths were very attractive
and did lucrative business.
Among the most interesting feat
ures was the fortune telling booth,
where a famous astrologer and
palnist from a foreign land read
the mysteries of the past, present
and future in the palm of the hand,
aided by the various stars under
whose influence the subject was
born.
The Ladies Home Journal booth
merits special mention, being very
handsome with It's effective draping
of red and black tissue paper. All
the materials for this booth were
sent out by the Journal company,
with large donation of beautiful
pictures for the bazar. The ladies
will sell the booth if possible and
add the proceeds to the funds of
the circle.
The art gallery and museum also
afforded rare entertainment. Over
eighty subjects were presented in
the most attractive fashion. The
good guessers enjoyed this feature
greatly
Music was furnished during the
evening by one of the local bands,
and after ten o'clock dancing was
enjoyed by all who wished to in
dulge in this ever popular amuse
ment.
The exact sum realized by tie
bazar has not been learned, but the
gross proceeds were over a hundred
and fifty dollars.

They left Denver, Colorado, last
Thursday morning, and say there
was six inches of snow on the
ground then. As compared with
California, Mr.. Fernando thinks
the Brownsville country is superior
in many respects Frost fell in
California during their stay, though
not sufficient to damage fruits, etc.
Mr.. Fernando says he was called
upon to answer many questions
concerning the Brownsville country
and it goes without saying that he
always gave a good report for his
section. Both Mr.. and Mrs. Fer
nandez, are considerably improved
