 When a piece of Food rubs the walls of the Intestines these Muscles tighten behind it. and thus 1t starts Muscle-wave which drives it through the whole length of the Bowels.
 It should take about lz hours to do this properly, so that nutritious parts of the food may have time to be digested and absorbed.

DUTY TO THE NATION.
Futur

Future ~. Country In the Hands
of Its Women.
The following advice to mothers was
taken from all article written recently
by a clever woman who has the well
fare of society deeply at heart: ''Is it
not time for mothers to take their
stand at point where they can survey
their own relation to- society at large
and realize their duty to the nation?
Will they not teach their children the
value of character as an asset in life
and show them that if having is good
being is better? Let American moth
ers take their children to the mountain
tops instead of through the valleys
and demonstrate to them that they are
but units in the sum total of the ma
tion-units, however, upon the sound
ness and value of which the entire to-
tai depends and without which the
sum is incomplete.
ut is not too much to say that the
future of the country is largely in the
hands of it's women. As mothers they
have the first chance at the molding of
their sons characters when at the
most plastic stage, and they hold up
to them their first standards of con-
duct AS friends and sweethearts they
give the young man at his most i'm
questionable age his first idea of the
visible type most admired and desired
as well as most likely to win in this
great world which he dreams to CON
quer. Is this type to be the mere mon
ey maker, regardless Of honesty; the
mere politician, regardless of prfnci-
pie; the mere social leader, regardless
of manliness, or the gentleman, sans
peur ct sans reproche,' whose sturdy
nobility of character obliges him to
consider the moral cost Of worldly sue
cess and who feels rewarded for the
sacrifice by the safety of his honor
and the force of his personality

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER T..
PUBLIC SCHOOL SOCIETIES

The committee, to whom was re-
ferred the matter of secret societies
in the public schools, with power to
act, has decided against the secret
societies. This is as it should be-.
The public school system of this
country is no place for secret socie-
ties. Until the past year Kenosha
has been comparatively free from
sororities and fraternities, but even
with Kenosha's limited experience it
has been shown that their workings
are greatly detrimental to the best IN
terests of the public schools. The
Chicago High Schools have been
troubled for number of years with
these societies and with the opening
of the present school year the school
board has taken drastic measures and
ordered all High School principals to
bar every member of secret society
from all public recognition, and he or
she is to be ineligible to take part in
any contest-l1terary, JourDai1st1c or
athletic. The sentiment in Chicago
is overwhelmingly against the So
cieties as they have been proven to be
disturbing elements in school life.
Not only is there tendency to form
the school into cliques but the socle-
ties demoralize the government of the
schools. The trouble in Chicago
has even reached so serious a stage as
to bring the matter into the courts.
So we say the committee of the school
board in our city has acted wisely IN
nipping the secret society bud in the
head as far as the public schools of
Kenosha are concerned.

HOLD UP PosTALs
Thousands Of Postal Cards Sent
Through the Mails Go to the
Dead Letter Office
POSTAL RULES NOT OBSERVED

ignorance of the postal regulations,
coupled with the cupidity of certain
dealers in novelties, is responsible for
the loss of 10000 postal cards which
each week are sent from cities to the
dead letter office in Washington.
The failure of these cards to reach
their destination is no mean consid-
GRAFTON, but there is financial loss
entailed as we'll. In nearly every
case the cards bear one cent stamp
at least and this wasted postage alone
amounts to 5000, while the cost of the
cards az an approximate average of S
cents each brings an approximate
loss to over ST., 900 week.
The postal card craze is having
tremendous vogue and 1000, 900 is not
an excessive number TO be handled by
the post Office in one week. The vast
majority easily pass muster, as wide
latitude is allowed in shape, size, ma
terial, color, and subjects treated,
but beyond a certain point the law
steps in and the card drops out-of
the mail.
The most serious trouble expert
enced is with the tinse1 touched cards.
These are expensive, often costing 10
and Is cents each, yet they will not be
handled unless inclosed in an en-
velope. The order excluding these
cards was issued last March and was
occasioned by the danger involved to
the mail clerks. A clerk in Milwau-
kee lost al arm through bloodspoison-
ing, which was traced to hnespartic1es
of tinsel off these cards lodgingsgin
cut in his hand.
The first order with reference to
these cards was not specifica enough
and another was issued tolthe effect
that they must be in envelopes. This
was amended SO that transparent en-
velopes of waxed paper with narrow
slit in the upper rightshand corner for
the stamp and postmark might be
used. Even this caused trouble, as
some dealers left spaceionly for the
stamp, and two weeks ago new or
der was issued requiring the stamp to
be placed on the outside of the en-
velope.
Even here there is difficulty, how
ever, as the handling of.the post card
in this shape is governed by what it
bears. If there is no message on the
card and the envelope is ursealed
cent stamp will carry it,.but fit bears
a message it requires cent stamp,
whether sealed or not.

GOOD ROADS

1t would be a good investment for
all of the towns in the county to send
one of their road men to the State
Good Roads Convention at Mflwau-
kee September Il. A number of the
best road makers in the country will
be there, people who know how to
talk and tell how to build roads as
we'll as how to actually build them
and the towns will not lose anything
by sending their road men up there.
The State Geological Survey, which
is to build the stretch of model road
during the fair, is receiving calls for
expert advice from all over the state.
There are only sixteen counties which
have not sent in applications for this
help. The interest of the people in
the subject of good roads is rapidly
becoming quite intense and only needs
proper direction in order to secure IN
a very short time great improve
rnent in>tne roads of Wisconsin.

A Girls Girl.

Whenever you hear a girl called a
''girl's girl" try to know her, if you
do not do so already She is sure to
be nice in the best sense of the word
In, nine cases out Of ten you will find
her true and sympathetic, always
ready to listen to condolences and,
above all, ready to keep them as such.
She is always doing a kind act for
some one, and thought of herself
comes nowhere in her calculations.
Such a girl is always popular with
her friends, and you will hear golden
opinions Of her on all sides. There
may be nothing specially about her to
attract notice. It seems to be just
an Individual charm In her nature
that stamps her with this engaging
characteristic. She is generally frank
and honest in expressing an opinion,
and her friends may be sure it is a
genuine one. She is at once unaf-
fected and simple and ready to show
an interest in all her friends under
takings.
If you cannot count among your
friends a girl who earns this title, try
to find one, and when you find her
congratulate yourself upon your sue
cess

PLAN MODEL HOME
EIks Will Soon Convert Old Gen.
trail Music Hall Into a Club
Home Of Rare Beauty
GRAND OPENING IN NOVEMBER

Now that the lease for the Bijou
theater has been signed for period
of FIVE years the Kenosha Elks Club
House Association have accepted
plans to make old Central Music Hall
one of the beauty spots of Kenosha
and one of the most commodious
society halls and club rooms to be
found in this section Of the state. The
remodeling Of the second floor of the
building which was started a few
days ago is to be completed about the
first of November and the grand
opening of the Elks Club will take
place some time in that month.
Nearly $4, 900 will be spent in in
proving and decorating the rooms
and scarcely vestige of the old hall
will be left when the carpenters and
decorators are through with their
work. The little low doors and win
dows are to be torn out and will be re.
placed with high windows and doors.
The entire interior of the building
will be finished in oak. The walls in
the main hall will be covered with
burlap of golden brown color and
finished with panels, oak moulding
being used for the work.
Tie main club room which will be
used as lounging and billiard room
will be finished with an oak wains-
coating running nearly to the ceiling
while the ceiling and the remainder
of the walls will be finished with
paneled burlap. The room to the
north and east will be fitted up as a
stein room and card room. 1t will
have a wainscoating of fumed oak
running to the ceiling and the other
furnishings of the room will be in
keeping. It is the plan of the AS
sociation to furnish the rooms in the
most modern manner.
Nothing will be done with the front
of the building this year, but early IN
the spring it will be torn out TO make
room for a splendid new front. The
members of the order have already
begun to make plans for the opening
of the new club rooms and members
of lodges in all parts of the state will
be asked to come to Keuosha to take
part in the festivities.
The work of remodeling will be
rushed as rapidly as possible in order
to have the hall and club rooms in
readiness for the opening in No
vember.

Rules and Regulations Committee
Of the School Board Decides
Against Secret Societies
DETRlMENT TO SCHOOL WORK
Phi Alpha Chi, the One Sorority in
the Schools at Present, Will Not Be
Allowed to Continue After
the New Year Opens

The rules and regulations COM
mittee of the Board of Education has
placed the ban on all secret societies
in the Kenosha High School and in
the future fraternities among the men
or sororities among the girls at the
school will not be allowed to exist.
The matter was referred to the COM
board, and after long discussion of
the merits and dangers of these so.
cieties it was decided that they should
be kept out of the city schools.
The action of the board is aimed
directly at the society known as Phi
Alpha Chi, sorority organized among
the girls of the Kenosha High School
a year ago. The society has some
twenty members and include many of
the leading young women of the
school. The sorority had it's badge,
its constitution and bylaws and the
members were selected by voteiof the
other members. There has never
been fraternity organized among
the men of the school, but plans were
on foot to organize one when they
were nipped in the bud by the decis-
ion of the board to take some action in
regard to the matter.
The fraternity proposition mas
proved serious one for all the,schools
in larger cities and nearly every city
School Board has taken Esteps to
limit if not prevent sabso1utely the
existence of these fraternities. It is
claimed that athey create uclasses
among the students ard completely
destroy the healthful school spirit
which should prevail in1sthe public
schools. In Chicago theresare more
than forty high school fraternities
and since the School Board there has
determined that they should not exist
they have been operated sub rosa. It
is not known what steps will be taken
by the Kenosha sorority ssince the
committee has decided that it will
not be permitted to continue with the
high school girls assmembers. The
committee will leave loop hole for
the societies in way of submitting
their constitutions and laws ITO the
superintendent and"having one of the
teachers at the meetings but this
would make the society acceptable
only when it could be shown that it
was existing for the advancement of
the best interests of the schools of
the city.
In the past years there have been a
great many societies, and sail such
things IN connection with sthe hig h
school, but the present Board of Edu-
cation is of the opinion that these
societies have taken up entirely too
much time of the pupils. This time
should have been given to the regular
school work.
Nothing will be done to interfere
with the two literary societies but it
is expected that the work 'of even
these societies will be curbed land the
public entertainments limited to an
oratorical contest or a joint debate
but not both as in past years.

A Moral Pincushion.

There are few families in which
there is not a moral pincushion, and
the people who are forced TO live with
them are the only ones capable of tell
ing just how aggravating these self
made martyrs are, for the moral pin
cushion is usually person eaten up
with self consciousness.

around her eyes, has her mouth drawn
down at the corners and her forehead
puckered with heavy lines, the result
of deep study as to how each wicked
speech could be meant for her.

KENOSHA HORSES WIN
Billy Moak and East View Belle Make
Fast Time at Libertyville

y
Kenosha horses were very much in
evidence at the Libertyville Fair on
Thursday afternoon when Peter
Breen's horse Billy Moak won the
2:35 pace in straight heats while
Andy Hildebrande drove East View
Belle from the Uh1ein farm to victory
in the 2.29 trot. The performance of
Billy Moak was the best to the credit
of the Kenosha horse this season and
he walked right away from fast field
of entries and clipped off the three
heats in 2:17, 217H and 2:174. It was
the fastest time ever made by Keno
sha horse on the Libertville track.
On the previous day Sirius T. driven
by Hildebrande got third money in
his race. The Kenosha sports all
went down to Libertyville Thursday
and it is said that they cleaned up
quite little on the victory of Billy
Moak.

HOODLUMS

There is a crowd of boys or young
men in Kenosha who are breeding
trouble for themselves by their hood
lum ways which they seem to think,
as the small boy says, sis smart.
They talk loud and much on the
streets as was the case of some of
them at Salem last week. They be-
long to good families as rule and it
is unfortunate that their families do
not take them in hand and correct
their habits and manners before the
Courts have to.
