FURNISHINGS TO COST $4,000
People of the City Are Asked TO Make
Enough Small Contributions To Make
Up This Large Sum -Fraternal Orders
To Help

DO you want to give a towel, a pillow
slip, a bed sheet, a bed, a dresser or a
rug or any one of the thousand and one
things that will be needed for the fur
nishing Of the New Kenosha Hospital.
If you do, notify Mrs. James Cavanagh
the secretary of the Board of Directors
or M. q. Boerner, Assistant Cashier of
the First National Bank who is the
treasurer Of the Association. With the
hospital rapidly nearing completion the
members Of the Board of Directors of
the Association have taken up the i'm
portant matter Of raising the money
needed for the furnishing Of the ,nsti
tuition. It is estimated that it will take
in the neighborhood of $4,000 to pro-
vide the furnishings for the hospital
and it is expected that the rank and
file Of the people Of Kenosha will fur
nish this sum of money.
Wealthy people in the city have con-
tributed more than $50 900 toward the
institution up to the present time and
it is now expected that the large mum
Der of people who have made no con-
tribution will send in their mites to aid
in furnishing the hospital. It is the
plan of the board Of directors to have
the furnishings uniform in every way
and to this end the people who desire
to help may contribute the money
which can be expended for the fur
nishings as dictated by the donor.
Twenty five cents will purchase a towel
or a pillow slip and dollar will buy
a sheet for one Of the beds in the
hospital
The Association desires these small
gifts. Several Of the organizations in
the city have announced that they will
furnish complete rooms at the hospital
and this will require donations of from
$l25 to 5000 according to the size Of
the rooms 1t is thought that some
organization in the city will offer to
equip one Of the operating rooms. The
directors Of the Hospital Association
will within few days begin to place
the contracts for the furnishings and
they hope that before that time there
will be steady stream Of silver and
gold into the treasury for this purpose.
Here is a chance that the small giver
has to show his interest in the hospital
Any gift will be acceptable to the
members of the board and gifts of
twenty-five and fifty cents are especial
~ solicited. 1t is expected that the
new hospital building will be completed
the latter part of the year and the
Board of Directors hope to have all the
furnishings ready so as not to delay
the opening of the new institution.
Mrs. James Cavanagh, Secretary of
the Board of Directors has given out
the following list of articles which will

From State Supt. Cary's report of
1908 in which was published the teach.
ers, salaries based on eight months of
teaching, Prof. G. E. Patzer made
authentic deductions using the twelve
month basis instead of the eight month
basis. AS the result Of his deductions
he found that there were thirty-seven
teachers who worked for 1862 a year or
for fifty-two cents day; 625 teachers
who worked for 1892 a year or sixty

worked for 1928 a year or seventy

1898 year or $1.04 day; and 1890
teachers who worked for 1866 a year

made was that there was about 5000

Christian EndeaVor

Jasper Singley is our leader for
next Sunday evening. Everyone is
invited to come.
A splendid meeting last Sunday
evening was conducted by Ebert
lnnis. A solo by Miss Ethel Innis
was greatly enjoyed.
The Endeavors are like flock of
sheep without shepherd since our
President. Mr.. Weaver, left. He
started for Colorado Wednesday to
spend months vacation IN the
mountains of that state.
The Endeavors regretted very
much to see Mr.. and Mrs. Hulburt
leave our city, as they have always
been such faithful workers in our
society. While we are losing, some
other society is gaining, and all the
Endeavors join in wishing them we'll
in their new home.

John R. Walsh, who is serving a
fve-year sentence for misapplying
funds of the Chicago National Bank
may be pardoncd. Three years
were spent in securing the necessary
evidence to convict Walsh and thou
sands of dollars expended carrying
the case to higher courts. The plea
for pardon which will be presented
to President Taft will be based upon
the fact that Walsh is more than 10
years old and in ill health. 1t will
occur to the average man that being
pretty we'll supplied with this worlds
goods and having attained an age al
which he should have been above
committing crime Mr.. Walsh got
off pretty easily and should be com
PEELED to serve out his sentence. If
every criminal was pardoned when
their health began to fail the average
penitentiary would not contain a
large number. and this is no valid
excuse for release, If every money
ed offender is pardoned or found in
sane then the courts of this country
should cease trying these cases and
construe the law to apply only, to
the poorer classes and let the rich
offenders rob and murder at their
pleasure.

Both the Republican and the
Democratic parties are holding
party councils at Topeka this week.
Both have adopted platforms on
which they will base their claims for
support in November. Both sound
good, and either if honestly lived up
to would no doubt give satisfaction.
The great trouble with platforms
however is forcibly illustrated by
the statement made few years ago
by politician, which was some
thing like this: ga platform to the
politician if like depot to the train;
it's fine to get in and out on, but
they would be terrible nuisance if
they had to be carried through the
entire trip"

Attention Editors

Why wouldn't it be pretty nice
thing for the editors along the Rock
Island in Southwestern Kansas and
Oklahoma to have an editorial asso-
ciation2 The organization could
extend from Pratt to DalhaTt, and
by having the meetings at some
central point it would be an easy
matter for the boys of the country
press to get together, talk over the
business and they could no doubt
profit by the experiences of others
in many things. No one man is
big or old enough to learn all the
ups and downs of the newspaper
business, and an exchange of ideas is
always beneficial. If you are int
crested and approve of the plan take
the matter up in your paper or
drop The News man card and per-
haps an organization can be perfect
ed. The people of the southwest
are deserving of the best and this as
sociation would no doubt be the
means of improving many papers in
this part of the country.
