OLD OFFICERS ELECTED AGAIN
Pension Fund Now Amounts to Close
to Five Thousand Dollars and No
Claims Have Been Made for Care of
Members of the Department.

The annual meeting of the trustees
and officers in charge of the firemen s
pension fund was held at the city hall
this morning and the annual reports
of the secretary and treasurer of the
organization show that the fund is in
excellent condition. The treasurer S
report ending May 1st of this year
showed total fund on hand of
$4,319.40 of which amount $2,371.54 is
in cash. This amount is now in the
hands Of the city treasurer and the
trustees voted to invest it in bonds
of the city of Kenosha. The fremen
have shown their faith in the city by
insisting that all their investments be
in local securities and already a large
amount of the fund is invested in city
improvements bonds. In this manner
the firemen get an income of five per
cent on their money. Just as soon as
other bonds can be purchased the en-
tire fund viii be invested in bonds of
sne city.
Since The organization OF the board
Of trustees only one claim for bene-
fits has come before the board and
this was acted on by the council. Thus
far the only expenditures from the
pension fund have been for the run
ming expenses of the fund and the
salaries of the officials. As the fund
receives annually portion of the two
per cent collected from insurance pre-
miun1s and other sums from manufact-
urers and others interested in the fire
department it is expected that in q
short time the fund will grow to large
proportions. There are no members of
the department. eligible to pension on
retirement and it will be many years
before pensions of this nature will be
paid from the fund.
For the most part the pension fund
is decidedly popular and the men in
the paid department willingly give of
their salaries to maintain the fund.
The following officials were eleetea

MANY NOT IN SUNDAY SCHOOL
Effort to be Made to Have the Children
Brought Into Schools for Religious
Training at the Various Churches of
the City.

The Park Avenue M. E. Sunday
school officers have recently taken a
religious census Of the city and discov-
cred that there are fully one thousand
children of school age not now in any
Sunday school, A campaign is in
progress to bring these children ipto
touch with some Sunday school. A
systematic effort will be made to dis
cover the church preference in each
instance and to solicit the cooperation
of every church in the city in caring
for these children.
The value and Importance of Sunday
school work was emphasized at the
Park Avenue church Sunday morning
when the pastor, Rev. Peter f. Stair,
spoke on the subject: "The Claims of
the Sunday School Upon the Church. =
Mr.. Stair said in part: 1.-THE claim of
the Sunday school is the claim of
weakness upon strength, of ignorance
unon intelligence, of children upon
parents. The Sunday school has a
right to be fathered and mothered,
''The first claim is for true appre-
citation of the value of children. The
church does not have just sense of
the worth of child. Proof of this is
to be found in the utterly inadequate
provision that the church has made for
the religious education of her children.
"The next claim of the Sunday
school upon the church is for a proper
conception of the child as subject of
redemption. There are only two
theories possible as touching the child
at his birth. He either belongs to the
devil or to God. Common sense and
the authoritative statement of Jesus
deny the first of these theories. Our
whole evangelistic work in the Sunday
school must be based upon the theory
that every child born into this world
belongs to God. Every child born in
to this world is born a Christian
child There are no heather children,
no ungodly children. Children are
born into the Kingdom OF Christ,
Therefore the supreme task Of the
church is to keep children with the
Christ.
8'Another claim upon the church is

Postmasters in Convention
Give Provisional Sanction
to | Cent Postage Rates
WANT HIGHER STANDARD FIRST

The National League Of Postmasters
of the United States, at the closing SEES
sion of it's convention at the Claypool
hotel at Indianapolis, Ind, gave con-
ditional Endorsement to 1-cent postage.
1t said in resolution that it favored
penny postage when the postoffice de-
partment had accomplished some other
things. The resolution follows:
Resolved, That in view of the pro-
posed reduction of postage on first class
matter, we humbly invite the attention
of the department. first to attaining the
highest possible standard of efficiency
in the service, and second the necessity
of revising the present schedule of COM
pensation of postmasters in advance of
such reductions; with such provisions
we heartily indorse penny: postage.
This resolution is far different from
the one adopted by the Indiana State
League of Postmasters, earlier in the
week. The state league declared fatty
against the penny postage plan.
The Classified List.
The national league declared in its
resolutions in favor of the extension of
the classified list of postofices to in
clude all offices in all parts of the
country. The resolutions commend the
administration of Postmaster General
Hitchcock; favor higher pay for post
masters, with an allowance for heat,
light, rent and clerical help; favor the
passage of the Burton bill, which would
abolish confirmation by the senate of
presidential nominations for postmast-
ers; thank Charles w. Fairbanks for
the encouragement ne gave the league
in his address, and thank, also, the
Commercial club, G. G. Hadley, Mayor
Shank and Postmaster Bryson for their
help in making the convention a sue
cess.
Richmond, Va, was chosen as the
place for the next meeting. Other cities
that asked for the convention were
Milwaukee, Cincinnati, Seattle, Cairo,
Niagara Falls, Guthrie, Atlantic City,
Boston and Cleveland.
Gift to President.
w. 0. Book, of New Albin, Ia, made
a speech, in which he presented to retir-
ring President Hoag, a gold watch, the
gift of the members of the league in
recognition of his services during the
three years that he has occupied the
Office of president
G. T. Fl. Birdseye, of Cincinnati, chief
inspector in charge of the district, ad-
dressed the convention giving the post
masters many pointers on their work.
He told them that the postoffce inspec-
tor was their best friend and not their
enemy; that postal savings banks would
be established in every postofice within
year, and that Postmaster General
Hitchcock is the best postmaster gen
era1 the country has ever had.
