DEFENDS LOCAL TEACHERS.
President of Board of Education De
clares Hockey Reports Exag gerated.

Walter M. Burke, president of che
board of education, has come to the
defense of the local teachers in regard
to their playing z hockey nc the teach
.ers convention and in an interview
this morning, Mr.. Burke made the fol
lowing statement:
"The statement in last nights paper
to the effect that many OF the Keno
sha teachers played hockey at the
teachers convention in Milwaukee
last week, is entirely misleading. 1t
is true that some of the teachers did
not attend the sessions as required and
these teachers deserve to be repri-
manded and will be reprimanded by
the proper committee Of the board of
education.
There are 107 teachers in the city
schools and while a few of them did
not show the proper spirit in attend
ing the convention sessions vet the
great majority of them were in at
tendance. It is decidedly unfair to
the majority of our teachers that they
should be classed in the playing
hockey class just because of the ac-
tions of few. Some of the reports
submitted by our teachers on the con-
vention sessions have been first class
in every way and showed u thorough
ness that deserves commentator. ]
believe that if teachers in other cities
were asked to submit similar reports,
those of our teachers would be far
above the average.
II firmly believe that there is moi
city in the state of Wisconsin, not
even excepting Milwaukee, that has
such an efficient and conscientious a
force Of teachers as we have in Keno.
sha and it certainly is unfair TO the
majority of those teachers that they
be put in the hockey class because
of the careless actions of a few"

A league, it is announced, has been
formed against the current use Of
blasphemous, profane and obscene
language in public places" It's object
is to obtain enforcement of the law
against users of such language and to
do anything else that may be necessary
to check an evil II our public conduct.
Too many Americans are addicted to
foul and vulgar speech. Returning
travellers and visitors from foreign
shores notice an offensive profusion of
such language as soon as the home port
is reached. It has no parallel in Europe
and no proper place here. Perhaps it
exists because of the greater nervous
strain that is on Americans; perhaps
it is result of freedom from some of
the restraints on the individual that
exist in an older country. Whatever
its cause, its results are bad.
1t is easy, of course, and dangerous,
to go to extremes in supressing profane
and indecent language. But toward
real and sensible suppression every de-
cent American ought to be willing to
lend a helping hand.-Record Herald.

MUST PURGE ELECTION LISTS.
City and County Must Take from vot-
ing Lists Unnaturalized Aliens.

Election officials of the city are fac
ing difficult task as before the next
city and judicial election to be held
in the spring the names of al. aliens
who have not become citizens by Sc
curing second papers must be stricken
from the voting lists. It is thought
that no less than one thousand aliens
in Kenosha will be affected by the
new law. Some of these men have
voted for years and it is feared that
it will be difficult to make them under
stand that the right Of franchise has
been taken from them by the work
ings of the state law. Political condi-
tions in several of the wards of the
city will be greatly changed by the
elimination of these voters. Commit
tees of both political parties will be
interested in the work Of making the
new registration lists. Under the
state law every city in the state is
required to make a new registration
of the voters before the election in
the spring of 1913.

It was out of the usual order for the
county board of supervisors to or
game and select officers in the spring
Immediately after the election, but the
plan is working so well that it may be
adopted as the regular order Of pro-
cedure for the future. The board got
right down to business at the first SEES
sion of the fall meeting for there was
no time wasted on the preliminary
skirmishing over the selection of a
chairman inseparable from II reorgani-
cation of the board. There is another
advantage. Any sore spots left by the
action Of the board in the selection of
it's officials have had time to heal over
and all Of the members of the board
seem inclined to work in harmony and
get the business over with as little
delay as possible Whatever may come
up later in the session the board got
away to flying start.

NOT TO AFFECT OTHER BANKS
Report for First Eight Months Shows
a Total of 1854 on Deposit While
Many Accounts Have Been Closed
Up-Growth Becomes More Rapid.

Cashier William i. MARX To-Day gave
out the official figures done by the To-
cal postal savings bank for eight
months which closed on Oct. 81, 1912.
At the present time he says that the
amount of money on deposit in the
bank is 1864 This is about twice
as much as was on deposit at the end
of the first five months.
f'The deposits are increasing very
rapidly" Mr.. Marx declared. Gone
must remember that the amount now
on deposit doesn't include all that
which has been received and paid out
during the year. [ am safe in saying
that the local bank is a decided sue
cess in every sense Of the word.
"While the success in the short
period was great, / look to see it
doubled or even trebled during the
next year. The increase will be pne-
nomenal. 1t has taken some little
time for people 20 get accustomed to
depositing their money in The postal
savings bank, but now that they have
got in the habit there is sure to be
big increase in the amount on de-
posit.'
Asked as to whether or not he con-
sidered that the people who deposit
in the posal savings bank have with
drawn their accounts from other banks
Mr.. Marx said:
"My opinion is that very little of
the money that is deposited with us
ever was deposited in Il bank Of any
kind before. For that reason l con-
slider that the system is accomplish
ing just what its authors intended for
it. 1t draws much money Ito circula-
ton that could not be reached in any
other way.
eff an amendment to the law could
be made whereby a person could de-
posit any amount of money instead Of
being restricted, the amount on de-
posit would perhaps be double what
it is now.''
1t was declared that the local pos
tai bank ranks very highly with other
banks of the same nature in the
country.
People of all ages have made de-
posits Mr.. Marx says it is a note
worthy fact that there are many child
rem depositors. Many Of them are too
young to become depositors but never
theless they purchase the cards and
stamps and save them until they be-
come 10 years of age when they are
allowed to deposit in their own name.
In this way the children are taught to
save their dimes and buy stamps rath-
er than spend the money in foolish
manner.
The postal savings bank, according
to Mr.. Marx has proved a boon to the
foreigners of the city as many of them
before the advent of the bank kept
their money in their homes because
they were afraid to trust it in an or.
binary bank. Apparently they have
no fear to trust it to Uncle Sam.

WILL DIVIDE FUNDS
Money Raised by Sale Of Red
Cross Seals to be Left i'm
Local Communities
EXPECT INCREASED SALE NOW

One half of the money raised by the
sale of Red Cross Seals will be re-
turned to the local society which con-
ducts the sale, to be expended by them
in local health work according to an
announcement made by DR.. H. E. Dear
holt, executive secretary of the Wis
consin Anti-Tuberculosis Association.
This was done last year, but when
the executive committee of the asso-
citation at it's last meeting decided TO
extend it's activities to embrace gen
eral health work, there was some qres-
ton as to whether this policy would
be followed. It has been definitely
decided, however, to le3 each local as
ISOLATION retain fifty per cent of its
sale.
Certain conditions are placed on the
offer by the state association. To get
the fifty per cent, local association
must have been organized with its
membership in the state association
paid before December LIST. Tt is also
provided that the money which the
local association retains is to be spent
for public health work to be approved
by the state association.
"We wish to encourage local Or
ganization and local effort as much as
possible, said DIR. Dearholt comment
ing on this policy, "but part Of the
support must go to the state associa-
ton. If it were not for it there would
be no locals. It is necessary 20 have
"a strong central organization to slim
ulate and direct all of the forces both
private and public against the Great
White Plague in Wisconsin,

County Clerk Russell H. Jones was
reelected county agent for third
term by the county board on Wednes-
day afternoon. The vote for Mr..
Jones was unanimous and ths board
made it rising vote to show their
confidence in the official. The salary
of the county agent was fixed at $500
a year and $4,000 was appropriated as
a fund for the Office for The coming
year. The members of the board have
found the plan of uniting the Offices
of county clerk and county agent a
successful one and large sums have
been saved for the county by having
these funds handled from the same Of

There may be and probably is an
other side &c the question but on their
own showing as to the facts the
beet growers of this section are GER
tainly in need of an association to pro-
tect their interests and secure modif-
cations in the contracts the growers
are required to sign before planting
time comes again. AS they tell it the
growers are absolutely helpless under
the present contracts to protect them
selves and the factories are not bound
IN any way to accept the beets after
they are grown for that is what the
clause In the contract binding the grow
ers to wait for ears furnished on the
order of the factories before shipping
their crops amounts to. If the present
agreements are drawn the way the
growers say they are, if for any reason
the factories do not want to take the
beets no cars will be furnished and
the growers will be left with their
cSop on their hands. No wonder the
growers propose to combine for mutual
protection. No doubt the factories will
be able to show that it would be inn
possible for them to handle all the
beets If they were shipped at the same
time, but what the growers must have
IS contract from the buyers to taIxs OF
pay for a certain amount of the crop
~&thin 2. specified time. It is their
contention now that under the present
arrangement they have no real guar
antee shat any of their crop will be
Skipped and paid for.
