HAD A JOLLY TIME
EIks Close Spring Sessions With
the Initiation of a Large
Class of Candidates
PLEASANT SOCIAL SESSION

The Kenosha Lodge of Elks had a
merry reunion of the members at the
lodge rooms on Thursday evening when
the final session for the spring was
held and the event was marked by the
initiation Of large class of candi-
dates and social session which prov
ed to be one of the most enjoyable
gatherings of Elks ever held in Keno
sha. It had been expected that large
delegations would be present from Ra-
cine and Waukegan, but they failed to
put IN an appearance and the evening
developed into a great reunion Of the
members Of the Kenosha Lodge and
more than l25 of the members of the
local lodge were present There were
small delegations from Waukegan and
other visitors from Flint, Mich, and
Milwaukee. A class of thirteen mem
bers were initiated, the degree of the
order being fully conferred upon them.
After the mutation there were short
talks by Messrs. Hendee and Welch of
Waukegan, Meyer of Milwaukee, Boy6
of Flint, Mich, whlle Judge Clifford
E. Randall and Clarence E. Williams
of Bristol, responded for the large
class Of candidates.
After the regular work was over
there was a luncheon served after
which the members of the order were
entertained with a vaudeville program
furnished by the Comedy Four now
singing at the Bijou Theatre, Frank
Hamilton, the banjo king, and mum

MAY ORDER ASSESSMENTS
Insurance Department of knights o
Pythias Hard Hit by Death Rate

The insurance department of the
Knights of Pythias paid seventy eight
claims during April for $143,146, of
which thirty-nine were in the fourth
class and thirty-nine in the fifth class
The amount of claims paid in the
fourth class, which is on the made
quate rate basis, was almost double
what the members of that class paid
in, and IT is apparent that another
special assessment will be made be-
fore long. Since the organization of
the fifth class, which operates on the
American experience table basis of
rates, it has paid 472 death claims, of
which 392 were on transfers from the
fourth class, with insurance Of 1922
500. If the fourth class had not been
relieved of this liability by the trans
fers to the adequate rate class it's
situation would be much more serious.

Members Of Kenosha Camp Of
Woodmen To Raise Fund To
Help Fight Consumption
TO INTEREST MANY MEMBERS
Kenosha Local Committee of the State
Organization Takes Steps to Sc
cure Presentation of Elk.
hibit Here Soon

The Woodmen at its last regular
meeting took steps to enlarge upon the
work the camp has undertaken to
stamp out tuberculosis. BY unani-
nous vote it was decided to make the
second meeting in July tuberculosis
session. Special notice will be mail
ed to each member notifying him Of
the Importance of this meeting It
is proposed that Pike Woods Camp do
nate tent to the new sanitarium, the
cost of this to the local camp will be
about $3.50, and it is thought this
amount can easily be raised among the
members.
Prominent Woodmen speakers will
be invited to address the meeting, and
COMM ttee consisting of Conrad
Shearer, Glenn Huff and T.. E. deDei-
mar have been selected to arrange a
program. Many of the leading physi-
clans and attorneys Of the city who are
members Of the order will be asked to
prepare papers on the subject Of tuber-
culosis. Other organizations in the
city have taken similar steps and there
is no question but what Kenosha will
line up in the front rank Of cities con-
trlbuting to this most worthy cause.
The action Of the Woodmen in join
ing the crusade against tuberculosis is
noteworthy addition to the big fight
ing force against the disease in Keno
sha on account Of the fact that the
order now has membership of more
than 500 members and it is planned
not only to have these members aid in
spreading the fight among Woodmen,
but their influence is counted on to
get many recruits for the fight that is
being waged against consumption.
There are many Woodmen camps in
the county and surrounding territory
and members of the Kenosha camp will
be sent as missionaries to these camps
to get them in line for the work.
A meeting of the Kenosha commit
tee of the state organization for the
fight against tuberculosis was held on
Wednesday evening and it was decided
to take immediate steps to have the
state exhibit sent to Kenosha. DIR.
G. Windesheim the head of the local
committee has been in communication
with the state committee for some
time, but he is unwilling to have any
thing but the complete exhibit shown
in Kenosha and it may be some time
before this can be secured
The Wisconsin exhibit is one Of the
most notable ones made in the United
States and the members of the COM
mittee feel confident that its presenta-
ton in Kenosha will do a great deal
to aid in the fight for the suppression
Of the dread disease.

Glass of 1906 TO Hold Reunion Friday
June 25th, at High School
The Kenosha High School alumni
banquet is to be preceded this year by
a reception and banquet of the Glass OF
1906. The class will hold their gath
ering on Friday June 25, the night
before the regular alumni banquet and
from all reports they will have warm
breezy affair. The committee on en-
tertainment is planning some pretty
new and novel amusement and is elimi
mating all "dry speeches. and weary
ing programs.
Plates will be set for 40, which in
cludes practically every member of the
class. Frances Curtis, the president, is
coming from Salt Lake City, Utah.
Miss Fanny Pringle will oe here from
South Dakota, Miss Adams from Mil

Miss Waldo from California and sew

country.
It is. certainly good idea for the
class to get together by themselves
and have such a good time before the
big alumni banquet, where lot of
their time will be taken up greeting
other friends If other classes would
follow suit, it would make decidedly
good curtain raiser for the alumni
banquet.

she really thinks she is in touch with

Daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Harry
7. Robinson To Be Held
in Court Custody
CHILD WAS TWICE KIDNAPPED
Long Fight Between Mother and Father
for Custody of Child Brought to
m End by the Order of the
Court on Wednesday

In the Circuit Court in Chicago on
Wednesday afternoon Judge Barnes is
sued an order taking Gertrude Robin
son, the nine year-old daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Harry 7. Robinson, formerly
of this city, from her parents and the
child will remain in the custody of the
court until she attains the age of
fourteen years when she is, to be per
mitted to decide whether she will be
in the custody of her fnther or her
mother. The decision of the court
ends fight for the possession of the
child which has been going on for
more than six years. The court di-
rected that the little girl be placed in
a Catholic school at West Pullman
1t is declared that neither the mother
nor the father are satisfied with the
decision of the court and that they
will seek to reach some agreement by
which this decision will be set aside
and the child given to one of the
parents.
The fight for the possession Of the
little girl has been such a bitter one
that it has attracted wide attention
Robinson was formerly saloon keep
er in Kenosha and his wife is a daugh-
ter of Carl Skotski, the ianitor of the
Kenosha County Court House. The
troubles Of the Robinsons began in
Kenosha more than six years ago when
Mrs. Robinson, making serious charges
against her husband and his relatives
went into his saloon and demolished it.
A short time after that the Robinson
child, then baby in arms, was kid
mapped by the father from Kenosha
The father and mother had gone to
Milwaukee and Robinson left his wife
penniless in the station at Milwaukee
while he slipped into Kenosha and with
the aid Of confederates secured the lit
tie girl and took her to Chicago and
placed her in charge of his relatives
Later the child was taken to Kansas
CITY, Mo-, and while she was there she
was kidnapped second time by the
mother while on her way to school and
brought back to Chicago and later to
'Kenosha. Later Mrs Robinson secured
divorce and the custody of the child
was given to Catholic Sisterhood
pending the further order of the court
The Robinson cases have been feat
ured by most sensational scenes in
court whenever the case has been up
for a hearing and the wife and hus-
band have several times met in bitter
contest Many people in Kenosha have
aided Mrs. Robinson in her fight for
the possession of the little girl and at
this time there are on file with the courts
many affidavits in which it is alleged
that the mother should have the pos
session of the little girl While the
order of the court placing the child
in the Catholic school has been made
"a matter Of record it is thought that
the attorneys will find some way to
have the order modified and the effort
is still to be made to have the girl
turned over to her mother Robinson
and his former wife are both living
in Chicago at the present time.
