PUTS ON PLAY
"From Sire to Son" at Opera House
Saturday Night Well Attended

LAST PLAY OF THE SEASON
Many Taking Part Deserve Special
Menton-company to Re.organ-
ize Next Fall. ..

The Dow City Dramatic company
put on their last play for the season
last Saturday night. 1t was one Of
Milton Mobiles plays entitled From

a crowded house. The scene was laid
in California in tie mining district.
later being transferred to Italy. Maude
Brake, as leading lady, was at her
best and many say that this was her
best effort in the different plays
where she has had a part. Misses
Potter and Dow also deserve special
mention. Mrs. Mcbride is always a
favorite and was no less so in this
than in former plays. The different
male characters all did we'll and we
but wish that space permitted us to
mention each separately. We can on
ly say that all came up to the expec-
tations of the audience. Many witty
things caused much laughter and the
audience was not slow to appreciate
the bright sayings. Close attention
was given throughout. The songs be-
tween acts brought forth encores ga
lore and were much enjoyed. The
plays given by the Dow City Dramatic
company have given good satisfaction
and vote of thanks is due them from
the community for the nice clean en-
tertainments they have given US.
They will undoubtedly reorganize next
winter and should they do so they
are deserving of the same good pat
ronage they have had in the past.

RAIN AND HAIL STORM
Lightning Does Considerable Damage
to School House and Methodist
Church Friday Evening.

Rain and hail in large quantities
fell here last Friday evening. There
had been considerable rain every day
during the week. Lightning did some
damage to the school house and the
Methodist church. At the school
house the belfry was considerably
damaged, the floor being torn up and
this leaves the bell out of commission.
The siding was also torn loose. The
flag pole was damaged and We are re-
liably informed that the pole is now
loosened from its fastenings and
sways back and forth in the wind and
is in danger of topping over entirely.
At the NJ. E. church the belfry, as we'll
as the south vestibule, was damaged
and plastering was knocked from the
walls. Insurance was carried on this
building and the damage has been ad.
justed. On Friday evening the east
part of town was flooded. West of
town a quarter of mile deep mud
hole has been the cause of anxiety
to travellers. numerous ones getting
swamped and having to call on the
dray men for help in pulling their
rigs out Road Supervisor Gibson has
done his best to keep it in passable
shape, but the large amount of rain
offsets his work.

WILL REPAIR ROAD.
Board Of Supervisors Members Visit
Dow City and View Road Just
West Of Town.

Martin Nehls and Ed Ebert, two of
the members of the board of super
visors, were in town Saturday to look
after the condition of the mud hole
west of town. We are told that they
decided to have Road Supervisor John
Gibson put in two foot tube to drain
the water across the road and run it
north under the two railroads. In
years gone by this stretch of road
gave endless trouble by its being so
swampy, but in late years the road
has been kept up we'll and has given
little rouble-so little that every one
thought that the problem of this low
place had been solved. But Jupiter
Pluvius shows the reckoning false,
and now there seems to be no way
but to drain the water away. We are
told that Gene Crandall, who owns
land on both sides of this road, is
contemplating the digging Of ditch
north to the river to make an outlet
for the water gathering in this low
place.

The idea of establishing zones of
quiet" such as are enforced for hos
pitfalls, around school buildings, is new
one in Kenosha, but other cities have
recognized the value Of the "quiet
zones to the children and teachers of
the schools and have gone to consid-
cradle expense and trouble in the way
of changing street pavements and di
verting heavy traffic during certain
hours to insure school sessions uninter-
rupted by any outside disturbances OF
any kind. The arguments advanced in
favor of these zones are such as appeal
to the common sense of any one inter-
ested in the welfare and progress of
the children in the schools and es-
pecially to business men who know of
the nervous strain incident to attempt
ing to concentrate on any subject when
the mind is constantly distracted by
outside influences. While it is the un-
questioned right of property owners
who are to pay for the pavements to
decide on the material to be used, it is
suggested that those property owners
who reside on streets passing school
houses give this zone idea the consid-
Grafton it deserves before coming to a
decision on the material to be used. In
many cases the majority of the prop
erty owners have no decided preference
for any kind of paving material and in
asmuch as it makes no difference to
them and does make very decided
difference to the schools, they might be
perfectly willing to select the less
noisy kind if their attention is called
TO the matter in time.
