! like the kids and 1 do not mind if

true boy. and he is a delight to most
everybody except the unnatural man.
Men who delight in correcting small
boys never impress a kid with their
own politeness. A kid likes q man who
seems like a big brother to him. Some
men who think they are real good
figure as warning voices to kids, never
thinking that q kid heeds a warning
voice just as little as they do. We
can't forget the warning voice of
Noah. Noah wasn't as good az he
might have been, but he had a good
voice and a good warning, but q hard
hearted ana unbelieving generation did
not take stock in him and declined to
come in out If the rain. We are not
much better and these kids are our

thor of this: Some men make good

What do .you think of that? Good
ness isn't indicated anywhere in any
thing in the earth or in the water

Why does a husband ever wish to be

Crouch must think a good husband is

Sometimes get to thinking Of the
solitude of age--of those who sit here
alone with a whole family over there
/ wonder If they are as lonely as we
think-whether they are repininE or
just waiting to make that final reunion
complete. realizing the expectancy Of
loved ones gone before; and almost
feeling their spiritual presence. We
do not know what is going on in the
rooms and cellars and attics where the
aged and the solitaries sit and wait
we cannot see those hearts which hold
the pictures of memory, the loving
words. the undying faith, the hope
which is ever radiant. or the DOUBTS
and the fears and the ogres which
haunt those who have questioned and
doubted and it is well we cannot.
Whether they are sitting in peace or
gloom, our hearts should go out to
them-we should wish for them the
faith which is unshaken-the joy which
abides.

One night a humane caller, hearing
the dog threatened with a whipping.

something good TO eat when he comes

finally decided to come in and instead
OF a strapping he was given bit OF

sugar. He gets his little treat every

An opinionated man annoys some
people but he never disturbs me. The
man among men is the one who knows
how little he really knows or ever can
know. When Socrates was called wise
he said that must be because he knew
how little he knew. When you come to
apalyze an average opinion what is IL?
Efghty-1ve per cent. wind and 10 per
cent. sound and per cent. sense; Just
as man is IS per cent. water, 10 per
cent substance and FIVE per cent. gas.
Sometimes an opinionated mans feel
ings outweigh everything else--he has
such solid opinion of himself. That's
he; and we know where to find him
and he knows how to weigh us. He
belongs in the swim and we shouldn't
feel at home without him.

THE MAN WHO lALRS

Whether we look up BY day or py
night, we mentally make a note q
things which proclaim the glory q
God; but when we want to feel his
presence we should look within. When
we come to think of it the living som
is Gods masterpiece. He sald;
Heaven Is within you'll" not ABOUT
you. although ones environment might
be heavenly. The human soul con-
tains more Of Him than all things else
and to it has been accorded the priv
ilege Of hearing ''the still small voice.
Where two or three are gathered To-
gether in My name / will be in their
midst" is one of His promises; and,
yet, not few souls look afar of for
Him. Why? 1t is only by realizing
the nearness of God that any soul can
know His power. Do not put Him
away from yourself.

LOCAL MILK PRODUCERS TO MEET
Dairymen From This County I
Meet on Next Saturday

A call has been sent out for a meet
ing of the milk producers of Kenosha
county to be held at the Court House
on next Saturday at which time the
local dairymen will take steps to form
a branch of the Milk Protective Asso-
citation of America. It is expected
that the meeting will bring together
several hundred of the men in the
dairy business living in the neighbor-
hood Of Kenosha and that some action
will be taken to erect a central plant
for the handling of all milk from this
section of the county and state. The
Kenosha dairymen have been hard hit
by the recent legislation in Chicago
and the men plan to make this asso-
citation one that will protect their
rights against the official action of
the Chicago officials.

HOLD JOINT INSTALLATION
Grand Army and Woman IS Relief Corps
Have Interesting Session on Monday

One of the most interesting Grand
Army meetings ever held in Kenosha
was held at the Post Hall on Monday
evening when a joint installation of
the officials Of the Post and the
Woman's Relief Corps took place.
Nearly hundred of the members of
the two bodies were in attendance.
Charles E. Likes was installed as com
mander Of the Post for his eighth
term with Capt. George Hale, a past
commander of the Post, acting as in
stalling officer Mrs. William Ball
was installed as president of the W.
R. G. by Mrs. Charles Leonard.
One of the interesting features of
the ceremony was the fact that the
five children Of Mrs. Ball, .ne new
president of the Corps, furnished a por-
ton of the music for the evening.
After the ceremonies Of installation
were over a luncheon was served after
which short addresses were made by
members of both organizations.

HOLD HUNDREDS OF CARDS
Post Office Clerks Being Kept Busy
Disposing of Postal Cards

The big holiday rush is over at the
post office, but the clerks Of the office
are being kept decidedly busy dispos-
ing Of Christmas postal cards and they
will be busy for several days to come.
More than thousand postal cards
mailed by Kenosha people to friends
in this and other cities are held at
the office either for lack Of proper adj
dress or for postage. Hundreds Of
these cards are not mailable on account
Of the fact that they are Of the varie-
ty known as tinsel cards. Hundreds
of these cards are not enclosed in en-
velopes and as many more while en-
closed in the envelopes demanded by
the department have stamps on the
cards and the envelopes sealed. These
cards are all held pending the payment
Of two cents in postage. Cards are be-
ing sent out by the Office as rapidly
as possible to all of the senders of the
cards if their names can be found, but
hundreds of them have no names on
never be delivered. There are scores
Of the cards which are addressed to
people in Kenosha, but which can not
be delivered on account of insuficiencv
of the address. These cards will be
forwarded to the dead letter office at
the end Of thirty days. Kenosha will
have the largest batch Of dead letter
mail in it's history this year and this is
largely on account of the postal card
craze. 1t is noticeable that scarcely
any of the cards are addressed to
foreign countries. The foreigners in
the city are close students of the post
office regulations and all Of them man
age to get the proper postage on par
GELS and postal cards. The clerks at
the office while busy sending out cards
have figured up that the total number
Of postal cards handled during the past
twenty days was more than 10000
and the fact that only one thousand
Of these cards remain undelivered is
regarded as something of a record for
the local office. The same story is be-
ing told in every post Office in the
country and it is certain that there
will be more than million postal
cards sent to the dead letter office this
month.

that the Railroad Commission will con-
