Poor Master Werner Makes
Report of People Receiv-

TOTAL REACHES LARGE FIGURE
DESERVING Husbands Result in City Be-
ing Forced to Take Care of Is Fami-
Ies-Cost of Maintenance of Paupers
of the City Is Being Reduced.

Interesting figures of the manner in
which the funds of the city are spent
In the maintenance of the poor of the
city are shown in the annual report of
Pauper Commissioner n. j. Werner,
copy Of which has just been filed with
each of the members of the common
council. This report shows that there
are total of 195 people who received
aid from the city during the year 1911.
These people are members of So fami-
lies and few of the families have re-
ceived full support from the city.
the pauper question in an intelligent
manner and while the number Of people
receiving aid during the year has been
greater than in any former year in
Kenosha the amount expended in car
ing for these people has not been nearly
so large as in some former years. Of
the number receiving aid SO are child
rem under the age of ID years. The re-
port shows that fifteen of the families
dependent on the city have been rem
dered so by the desertion of the hus-
band and father and in several of these
cases the man has been brought back
to the city and the report shows that
in two cases he has been sent to prison.
The new law against the employment of
children of IA years in the factories
has brought not a few demands for aid
from the city. There are Is children
over ID in the families now receiving
all and it is declared that before the
new law went into effect that nearly
all of these children were wage earn
ers.IAn examination of the report shows
that some of the people who were re-
ceiving aid last year had been on the
pauper list of the city for as long as
fifteen years, but the majority OF the
number have been taken care of but
short time and the head of the depart
ment has made an effort to make these
people self-sustaining just as rapidly
as possible. Every ward in the city is
represented in the list being cared for,
the greatest number of the families be-
ing found in the eighth ward. In the
second ward there was but one family
cared for by the city and this family
received only temporary aid for short
time.
The problem has been to care for the
wolaen who are left with large families
of small children, and in many cases
where aid has been extended to adults
it has been. only to provide hospital
care or for the burial of the dead.

SALEM SCHOOL CLOSED.
Rapid Spread Of Scarlet Fever in Vii
lage Causes School BoarG, to Act.

The town of Salem has an epidemic
Of scarlet fever and on Monday after
noon the school board of the town di-
rected that the district school at Sa-
lem Center, just outside of the village,
be closed until the epidemic of the,
disease abated Four families have
now been quarantined and it is claim
ed that more than dozen cases of
the dread disease have appeared in the
district within the past few days. The
disease is in light form and there has
been no death from it, but it is de-
clared that it is spreading with such
rapidity that it is feared that the en-
tire village will have to be quarantin-
ed. Members of the families stricken
with the disease had been attending
the district school and it is feared that
all of the children in the school have
been exposed to the disease. "We
do not consider the conditions as being
any thing to be frightened about, -
said Town Chairman Pacey this morn
ing, "but the school at Salem Center,
just outside the village, was closed by
the board on Monday and it is prob.
able that it will be kept closed until
the disease is well in check.

were taken care of in hos
pitfalls in this and other cities and in
two cases transportation was furnish
ed to send consumptives to foreign
land. The poor house has been more
than in former years and the
report shows that during the year
there was total of Is inmates at the
farm north of the city. At the pres
ent time there are ten inmates at the
farm. The intelligent management Of
the work of the poor master has made
it possible to greatly reduce the amount
expended in caring for this large body
of dependents.

Kenosha Manufacturers AS

New State Movement.
MERRILL ASSN. TO LEAD

If a suggestion, made by J. D.. Sal

Der of Commerce, AN organization that
has done much in the last year for
the advancement and improvement of
its city is carried out, an associa-
tion Of the secretaries of all CONNER
cial bodies in Wisconsin will be form
ed during the coming spring.
Mr.. Salkeld has written to Conrad
Shearer, secretary of the Kenosha
Manufacturer Association, asking
his opinion of such an organization
and has also written to the secre-
taries in twenty-fcur other Wisconsin
cities. Upon their replies will depend
the question whether such an organi-
cation will be formed in Wisconsin.

tary that by closer utilization the Sec

they will be doing a service to the city
they represent. Mr.. Salkeld would
have an exchange of ideas by the Sec
reraries on proposed legislation, both
state and national and believes that
they would be better prepared to- sup
port good measures and oppose bad
ones than they would be in working
single handed. For instance, at pres
ent, all commercial organizations are
receiving appeals to assist in the fight
against a parcels post. AS most of
the commercial organizations in the
smaller cities are supported by mer-
chants who would be affected by a
parcels post it is reasonable to sup
pose that such associations would OPP
pose the measure, but Mr.. Salkeld be-
ieves an exchange of ideas among the
commercial organizations would be of
benefit before action is taken.

The question of building a sani-
tarium for the care of Kenosha county
patients in the advanced stages of
tuberculosis will be one of the first to
come before the next meeting of the
county board of supervisors and the
acffen to- be taken at that time will
definitely settle the matter for a good
many years to come. 1T is said that
many of the supervisors believe that
Kenosha county should have it's own
sanitarium and care for it's own
patients, but it is probable that
proposition will be submitted by the
supervisors of Racine county who have
already made an appropriation for
sanitarium to take care of the patients
from this county at fair compensa-
ton. If such a proposition is made it
is reasonable to suppose that the Ra-
cine supervisors will want some assur-
ance or a contract with this county
covering the care OF these patients for
a term of years. It is hardly to be
expected that the Racine supervisors
viii care to make their hospital large
enough to take in the patients from
this county in addition to their own
on any temporary arrangement and of
courSe any agreement with the Racine
officials will end all hopes of Keno
sba county sanitarium for the period
covered by the contract. The people
of the county are pretty well aroused
to the necessity of having these
patients cared for in some way SO that
they can no longer spread the disease
Immediately and some definite action
along this line is expected from the
board at the coming session.
