SCHOOLS AND MORALS.

The address of Mrs. Mary D. Brad
ford before one of the KenOsha So
cietios a few days ago in which she
pleaded for more moral teachings IN
the public schools of the city is furn-
ishing food for thought for a lot OF
people in K-enosha just as present.
These people are beginning to see that
the ordinary school boy of today leaves
the city schools we'll equipped in Latin
and arithmetic and with more than an
ordinary amount of instruction in sci
ence but lacking in that moral training
that was given him in the old time
schools. Even the trait of common
honesty is not taught the boy in the
schools to the extent that it should
DE and the lack of the proper installa-
ion of these qualities Of right living
being plainly seen in every kind OF
business in Kenosha. The parents of
many children are hopelessly remiss in
the moral training of the children and
the important work Of character build
ing is left to the school teacher. The
absence of this moral training in the
schools for this reason becomes even
more of a menace.
Big manufacturing companies are
putting a premium on common honesty
these days and the man who employees
asks not only has the man he is to en-
poy brains but first is he honest. An
honest man with a mediocre brain
power is better man for the man who
manages great enterprises than the bril-
liant man who is without principle or
character. The old school, the school
of the red school house days, the
school without frills or furbelows prid-
ed itself on one thing and that was the
fact that it started the boys and girls
on the right road, but with the coming
of the modern school and the over
looking of character building the stud
cuIS are l6Ib TO take Llelr chances. IL
it is in the boy to be honest this moral
training would help to keep him in the
right track but if he has in him the
natural seource of a vicious and dis
honest nature his work in the schools
of the present day does little to r. move
this and the boy turned out with
diploma of his school has nothing Of
the moral equipment that he should
have to start out in life. This prob
lem is surely one of the greatest edu-
) cational problems to come before the
men who run the schools and public
sentiment strong enough to override all
obstacles should be brought into play
to force the school boards to recog-
nize the fact that the building of char
acter is more important than any other
thing on the curriculum of the public
schools.

SLOW WORK.

The way that the Improvement of
Ashland avenue has been carried on is
a disgrace to the city of Kenosha. We
don't know whose fault it is but that
there has been gross mismanagement
somewhere is evident to anyone who
has resided in Kenosha during the past
summer and the authorities should see
to it that in paving streets in the fu-
ture some arrangement are made
to have streets that are paved, finished
within a stated time after they are
started. In the case in question, more
or less Of the whole length Of the
street has been torn up for months and
still no relief in sight; several blocks
have been shut off for weeks at time
when most needed. Ashland avenue is
the main artery Of travel going and com
ing from the south and thousands Of Chi
cage people and people from all over
the country travelling in autos come into
and leave Kenosha over this street and
it will surely do Kenosha no good from
an advertising point of view to have
them see the street, month after month
in the condition it has been this sum
mer.

OH MANAGER QUITS kEN0sHA
Peter Breen Accepts Position in Chicago
and VIII Leave Kenosha Base Ball
Management to Others-Park to Be
Rebuilt
t----'------------sp

Breen S Base Ball park was sold under
the hammer on Monday afternoon by
Deputy Sheriff Charles Turnock and it
was bought in by the Rambler Base
Ball club the purchase price being be-
tween $500 and $500. The sale was
made as a result of an order of the
court on an attachment taken by the
Kenosha Lumber company to secure the
payment of bill for the lumber used
in the erection of the grand stand and
bleechers. The sale of the park failed
to bring enough to satisfy the claims
of the creditors of Breen and it is prob
able that the creditors will go into
court and get deficiency Judgment.
The sale of the park probably marks
the close of the career of Peter Breen
as base ball manager in Kenosha.
Breen has been directing the destinies
of Kenosha base ball teams for more
than six years but it is admitted that
during the past season, the venture had
been a losing one. Breen gave up in
disgust six weeks ago and turned the
park over to some local men. He re-
moved to Chicago where he has ac-
cepted city position with the Brand
Brewing company and has served notice
that he is through with base ball in
Kenosha. For the past four weeks the
Kenosha team has been playing under
management arranged by the mem
bers of the team and Breen has had no
part in the conduct of the game.
The sale of the park to the Rambler
team assures it continuance. Manager
John Haag of the Rambler team was
at the sale and he was practically the
only bidder for the park. The land
on which the grand stand stands and
bleachers were erected is owned by
the Thomas B. Jeffrey company and the
Rambler boys have arranged to con-
tlnue the lease of the park until such
time as the land is needed for the ex.

Col. j. j. IIoyt and John O'Donnell
Swell Fund for Furnishings Monday.

The fund for the equipment and
furnishing of the new hospital got a.
good boost on Monday when gifts ag-
gregating $500 were received from Col.
J. j. Hoyt and John o'Donnell. Mr.
Hoyt has already given largely TO the
fund for the erection of the new build
ing but he supplemented his gifts to
this fund on Monday by sending a
check to be used for the furnishing of
the institution. The check was for
$3.50. Mr.. O'Donnell who has been an
officer of the association and who has
taken a deep interest in the work sent
a check for $50. Many smaller gifts
are being received by the secretary and
she is hopeful that the fund for the fur
nishings will be raised by the end of
the present month.
Orders are now being placed for the
furnishing of the hospital.

he will have some interesting announce

company. Manager Haag stated this
morning that he had leased the park
to the Kenosha Foot Ball team for the
rest of this season but that with the
coming Of the new base ball season it
would be improved. The grand stand
will be painted and put in first class
condition and all marks of age will
be eradicated. 1t is the plan of the
Rambler management to make the park
one of the most comfortable in this

INSANE COST MORE
Kenosha County's Bill for
Caring for Unfortunates
Increased By $1,000
NUMBER OF PATIENTS LARGER

The cost of the care of the insane
and the other delinquents in Kenosha
county for the year ending June 30th,
1910 is shown to have increased nearly
a thousand dollars over the amount
paid in the year preceding, by the re-
port received from the secretary of
state by County Clerk Russell H. Jones
this morning. The total amount to be
paid for these charges by Kenosha
county this year is $7,768.22 This pro-
vides for the care of 90 inmates of the
various institutions during the year just
closed. A majority of these charges
are being cared for at the Racine hos
pital for the insane and in another
year it is expected that all chronic in,
sane patients will have been removed
to that institution. The increase in the
cost of this expense to The county is
due almost entirely to the increase in
the number of Kenosha county inmates
OF the various institutions. The cost
of maintenance of the institutions has
been about the same as in the former
year.
The report of the secretary of state
shows that the list of inmates and the
charges for their care was as follows:
Home for Feeble Minded. 8 S 741.21.
State Hospital, Mendoza. 20 1,654.13
Racine County Hospital. SO 3,759.92

The value of the municipal court in
doing away with long terms of the cir
cult court has been shown again. This
year not single criminal case was
called for trial at the September term.
What is more to the point is the fact
that there are only three cases pending
in the municipal court. The speed with
which the municipal court gets rid of
these cases is not the least of it's valu-
able points.

Ashland avenue people will be tickled
to death if that asphalt filler gets in
before the snow flies. There seems to
be some reason why Improvement work
in Kenosha is always left to the last
day in the week of the last month for
doing this kind of work. It is to be
hoped that the officials will see to it
that the paving of Elizabeth street is
started at time that will permit it's
completion before the coming of I'M
favorable weather.

1t is interesting to note that the
number of divorces tried annually in
henosha county is decreasing. The en-

number of divorces and Kenosha peo-
pie together with other pee lie of the
nation are beginning to sec that the
time to hit at the divorce evil is to
hit at the marriage evils.
