THURSDAY, FEBRUARY IS, 1918.

Those who favor the extension OF
tile intake are likely to have force
given their arguments by the blocking
OF the intake by the ice at any time.
All of the cities on TIE west shore OF
tAe lake have been having more or less
trouble from the ice for the past week
or two and Kenosha will be very lucky
to escape The situation in Kenosha is
not now SO precarious as it is in some
of the other cities which draw their
supplies from the lake because of the
fact that water from the mains of some
of the factories can be turned into the
city mains in case the water company s
intake is blocked. This will give the
city fire protection but il it is necessary
to take the water from the factory in
takes it will not be safe for drinking
purposes and all of the water used for
drinking purposes will have to be
boiled. The officials Of the water com
pany have had ample warning of what
may be expected any minute and they
will not be caught mapping and the city
bo left without fire protection.

MILWAUKEE, KNIGHTS WIN.
K. g. Bowlers of Kenosha Lose in Mil
waukee by Margin of 470 Pins.


Bowling experts of the Kanosha
Council of the Knights Of Columbus
to the number of forty went to Mil
waukee on Monday night for the
annual bowling match between the two
councils. The Kenosha players lost
bp margin of 40 pins. Each coun-
Gil was represented by Eve teams of
eight men each and the pins were kept
dropping on dozen alleys for more
than three hours. The final score was
Milwaukee 10,7S9, kenosha 1879.
The Milwaukee bowlers were graci-
Gus winners for after they had de-
feated the visitors at bowling they en-
tertained them at dinner at the Elks
Club. Covers were laid for ninety ct
the banquet and short toasts were re-
sponded to by many of the members
of the two councils. The local knights
returned to Kenosha early this morn
ing and they are high in their praise
of the entertainment accorded them by
the Milwaukee members of the order

Pioneer Resident of County
Died This Morning at His
Home in Bristol.
LONG PROMINENT IN COUNTY
(From Tuesdays Daily

Daniel Marsh, one of the best known
of the pioneer settlers of Kenosha
county, died at the home of his
daughter in-law, Mrs. Charles Marsh in
the town of Bristol just before eight
clock this morning, death coming as
result Of general breaking down
| due to advanced age. Mr.. Marsh was
80 years of age and since the death
of his son a few weeks ago he had
been in very feeble health. The
funeral will probably be held on
Thursday and the remains will be
brought to Kenosha for interment in
the family plot in the Kenosha City
cemetery.
Daniel Marsh was for many years
one of the most widely known men in
Kenosha county. He was a native of
Pompey, New York, and was son
of the late Luman Marsh. Mr.. Marsh
was born Oct. 80, 1880, and when he
was sixteen years of age he came with
his parents to this county. The family
settled in the town Of Paris and Mr..
Marsh resided in that town until 1882
when he removed to Lisbon, Dakota,
where for many years he was engaged
in mercantile business. After the
death of his wife some ten years ago
he retired from active business life,
but continued to make his home in Lis
bon where he had become very prom
nent. He came back to the old home
in Kenosha county last fall with the
intention Of spending the winter with
his son the late Charles L. Marsh.
He was a man who had an active
part in the early development of the
county, man of unusual cheerful dis
position and this brought him large
circle of friends. He is survived by
one sister, Mrs. Peter Wood of Mil
waukee, and one brother, Remsen
Marsh of Lisbon. He is also survived
by four grand children, the children
of the late Charles l.. Marsh.

Opening of New Semester in
Schools Will Bring Many
Changes in Teachers.
NORMAL GRADUATES TO TEACH

Several changes have recently oc-
CURED in the teaching force of the Ke-
nosha public schools.
Misses Ida and Alice March, who
have taught in Kenosha for the past
five years, have resigned for a time
to look after certain business interests
in the west. They expect to become
farmers, and will devote their time for
a year to perfecting their claim to some
land in the northwestern part of South
Dakota. They left Monday evening
for their new home.
The place of Miss Alice March, third
grade, Frank School, will be taken by
Miss Viola Vogel of Elroy. Miss Vogel
is graduate Of the Elroy High School
and afterwards took a course in a
county training school. After teaching,
she went to the La Crosse Normal and
completed the course there in Janu-
airy.
Miss Ida March, who taught a fifth
grade in the Frank School, is succeed
ed by Miss Irene Mcmillan, also a
graduate of the Elroy High School and
of the Lacrosse Normal She has had
considerable experience as teacher.
An additional teacher has been added
to the Durkee School force, it being
found necessary to provide for an I'M
usually large first grade there. Miss
Elizabeth Bonney of Oconomowoc, a
graduate of the Milwaukee Normal, is
filing that position.
At the Balm School the crowded con-
dition presented a problem which was
finally solved by putting in one room,
the 18th and Sth grades, and making a
recitation room out of a dressing room.
This left room in which is being cared
for the extra third grade in that dis
! trict. Miss Edith DeLano is the new
third grade teacher. She is a graduate
of the Whitewater Normal School.
The resignation of Miss Marie G.
Mueller, fourth grade teacher at the
| Frank School, caused vacancy which
is being filed by Miss Camilla Orig
non, who has had her training at the
Oshkosh Normal School

Did you notice that list of jobs that
will be available for the faithful some
time in the four years following the in
auguration of President Wilson. The
list is long enough and the jobs are fat
enough to make practical politician s
mouth water. 1T is not the intention of
the leaders of the party to permit any
unseemly scramble for the plums and it
has been given out that no attempt will
be made to GUST the present incumbents
until the four year term for which they
were appointed expires, but the interest
is already keen enough to make Chair
man Davies of the Democratic State
Central Committee, who will have the
most influence in the disposal of the
federal patronage in Wisconsin under
the new administration, the most i'm
portant parsonage in the state to hun
dreds of would-be office holders.

LOCAL TEAM WINS.
Park Avenue Basket Ball Players De-
feat Milwaukee Team by Big Score.

The Methodist basket ball team
grabbed off another easy victory at the
Park Avenue gymnasium last evening,
beating the Grand Avenue Congrega-
tional team of Milwaukee by the top
heavy score of 60 to 26. The local boys
cinched the victory early in the game
but continued the merry romp until the
last minute of play, shooting basket
after basket and holding the visitors
helpless by fast team work and clever
blocking. All of the Kenosha players
took hand in the scoring, the Hardy
brothers working their famous COM
bination to perfection, completely out
guessing the opposing guards. "Dick"
Hardy was the shark o. the evening,
shooting total of fourteen baskets,
several of which were of the spectacu-
lar nature. "Tug" Hardy, captain of
the local team, and "Dane" Nelson,
both come in for large share of the
applause with some good basket shoot
ing. The defeat was hard blow to the
Milwaukee team, which came fresh
from long string of victories in the
Sunday School League at the Cream
City, confident of victory over the
Park Avenue boys, who by this latest
triumph enjoy most enviable prestige
in church athletic circles along the lake
shore. The Park Avenue FIVE, which
has made splendid record thus far,
will play some Of its hardest games in
the next few days. On Friday evening
the team will go to Delafeld for game
with st. Johns Military Academy, and
on Tuesday night, Feb, 18th, they will
engage in a battle royal at the Park
Avenue gym with Horlick's speed boys
of Racine.
The lineup was as follows:
Park Avenue NJ. E.-R. Hardy, r.;
E. Hardy, IT,; Nelson, C; TronVing and
Collier, rg; Maddox and Ledger, lg.
Grand Avenue Congregational-HOf-
meister, rf.; Greenwood, If; Allen, c;

INITIATE CLASS IN MILWAUKEE.
Kenosha Team of Yeomen Of America
Honored by Milwaukee Councils.

The drill team and members of the
official staff of the Kenosha Council Of
the Yeomen of America were honored
in Milwaukee on Monday evening when
they were called upon to initiate a
class of fifty members of one of the
Milwaukee councils. Following the
ritualistic work the Kenosha visitors
were guests at banquet given by the
Milwaukee members of the order. The
Kenosha team is becoming famous in
the ranks of the order and it's services
are being eagerly sought by councils
of the order in this and other states.

LOSE OUT IN BOTH CONTESTS
Affirmative Team Of the Kenosha High
School Wins Single Point While the
Racine Teams Pile up Total of Five
Points as Result of First Meeting.

The Kenosha high school debating
contests of the Interseholastic Debut
ing League on Friday evening when
the two teams representing the Racine
high school won all but unanimous
verdict over the Kenosha debaters in
the forensic contests held simultane-
ously at the high school in Kenosha
and at the high school in Racine. The
judges at the two contests awarded
the Racine teams five Of the possible
six points and there is considerable
gloom among the Kenosha students to-
day as q result of the first of the
series of debates.
The Racine teams showed a great
advancement over the form they had
shown in the debates of last year and
it is evident that the Racine teachers
had given a great deal of time to the
training of the debaters. The Keno
sha boys and the one young lady who
took part in the doubled barrelled de-
bate, made good showing, but they
failed to impress the judges with their
presentation of the question at issue
The question debated at both of the
schools was E'That in the Interests of
Worlds Peace the United States Re-
duce it's Proportional Naval Expendi-
tures.'
The debate at the Kenosha high
school was between the affirmative
team of the Kenosha school, compos-
ed of Miss Myrtle Perkins, Lester
Siedschlag and Earl Schmitz and they
met the negative team of Racine made
up of Alvin Houmerson, Leonard
Baumblatt and Charles Fervoy.
Judge G. E.. Randall of the NUM-
cipal court, presided at the debate and
the judges were Superintendent Beck
of the schools of Lake Geneva, War
rem r. Hicks, superintendent of indus
trial education in the state, who came
down from Madison for the event, and
| the Rev. Mr.. Richardson of Waukegan.
| The debate proved big attraction for
the high school students and more
than two hundred of them turned out
The judges gave the Kenosha team one
point for the showing made in Keno
sha and awarded two points to the
Racine team.
In Racine the decision on the ques-
ton for debate was reversed and the
Racine team defending the affirmative
side of the question, composed of vet
Gran debaters Miller, Steelholm and
Frank won victory over the negative
team from Kenosha with Ralph Skin
kle, Lawrence Eastman and Herbert
Curtis representing Kenosha. The de-
bate in Racine drew a much larger
crowd than the Kenosha debate.
Prof. Ward of the local faculty went
to Racine with the local debaters.
Quite company of the Racine stu
dents came to Kenosha for the debate.
The standing of Kenosha in the
league will have to be determined by
the results of debates held in other
cities and it is probable that the Keno
sha team will have chance to debate
with some of the other teams in the
state for secondary honors.

City Clerk George w. Harrington
this morning received from the secre-

be used at the coming primary cleo
ton. These ballots will be decidedly
welcome to the voters. There is but
one page to the ballots and it will be
an easy matter to select candidates
on them. The clerk has new troubles
in connection with the non partisan
law. The election law provides that
the canvass CT the vote shall be made
by the clerk and members of the city
political committees. The new law
cuts out the committees and the clerk
has asked the state officials to advise
him as to just how the votes may be
canvassed.
