interested in sound morals and good govern

assaults on young girls which sharply aroused

ceased. Miss Sadie G. Sterritt, superintendent
Of the Girls Industrial School, told of four re-

the night before on young girl at Aala park.

HEAR ANNUAL REPORTS
Year just Closed One of the Biggest ia
History of Blue Lodge In Kenosha.

At the regular communication of the
Kenosha Lodge, No. At, T. and A. NJ,
held on Monday evening, the annual
reports of the officers were read and
these reports showed that the year just
closed has been one Of the most active
IN the history of masonry in Kenosha.
Under the leadership of Worshipful
Master Lynn 7, Hannahs, seventy-seven
degrees were conferred during the year.
The membership of the lodge at the
close of the year was shown to be 374,
a movement was at once inaugurated to
bring the Membership 1.p to 400 before
the close of the coming year. The fl
nancial report was exceedingly crafty
ing to the members Of the lodge, show
ing large balance in the treasury at
the close of the year. The members of
the Masonic Temple association have
announced that many improvements
will be made at the temple during the
coming year. After the regular meet
ing was over the annual custom of con
ferring the 'Past Masters Degree
was carried out.

II have looked the field over careful
ly and think there is no doubt of my
receiving majority of the votes in
caucus. The session this winter should
not be longer than four months at the
most. The people do not want long
drawn out session, and [ trust that
nothing will occur in organizing or
later that will engender faction bitter
ness, for nothing is more productive
of long sessions. [ believe it is the
wish of all factions and parties that
this should be practical, businesslike

ward debate of the merits of proposed
legislation and quick decision by vote y

parties, from men in all walks of life.
They came from Oshkosh, Green Bay,

mittee expects to fill one special train
and has arranged to run the special in
two sections if necessary.
Plan Cordially Received.
George A. West, secretary of ar
rangements, said on Saturday:
l." A general spontaneous desire to
show Mr.. Philip mark of respect
by escorting him to Madison on the
day Of his Inauguration seems to be
extremely contagious. Applications
1or space have already been received
from several hundred gentlemen from
all walks of life, regardless of party
affiliation. The heads of many of the
business houses, manufacturing con-
Germs, their assistants, clerks and la
borers are going. Many judges, law
ysrs doctors and farmers alike are
joining us. If one train will not
carry us all, second section will be
provided.
'fThe fare from Milwaukee to Madi-
son and returns is 1928. If parlor car
is desired it will cost $1.00 extra.
The special train will leave the Union
depot at $3.50 o'clock Monday morn
ing, January 4th, reaching Madison in
time for the Inauguration of the in
coming state officials, which takes
place at noon. The special returns to
Milwaukee shortly after p. M, the
same day. Those desiring to remain
for the evening will be accommodated
by a later train. This will not be a
millionaire's train, nor dress affair
just simple and sensible. Those who
find it inconvenient to start from Mil
waukee may take the train at Ocono-
nowoc or Wctertown.'

1t is pretty generally conceded that
one of the chief obstacles to an upturn
toward prosperity is psychological. y
We have been passing for two years
or more through a period of widespread
business depression. Just as there be-
gan to be signs of a change came the
staggering catastrophe of the war. Out
of this crisis we are now working with
unexpected promptness. Enormous crops
with high prices and large foreign or
ders, the railroad rate raise and the
improvement of our international credit
balance, all give grounds for optimism
and renewed activity. What also is
needed is a revival of the confidence
the vigorous initiative, the hopefulness
which have given to American business
enterprise it's wonderful triumphs. This
is the time to show faith in the country
Nm its strength, it's resources, its sure
Suture-and to show it by works-Chi.

THURSDAY, DECEMBER 81, 1914.

The final figures have not been made
up. but it seems certain that this city
broke all of it's previous records in the
sale of the Red Gross Christmas seals
and that the amounts secured for the
various agencies which share in the
receipts of this sale will be larger than
last year. All things considered the
city has made a remarkable record and
credit for exceptionally good work
must be given the men and women in
charge Of the distribution of the seals.
If any evidence is needed that the
people of Kenosha take a great inter
est in forwarding the anti tuberculosis
campaign it is furnished by the re-
turns from the sale of the seals this
year. At q time when the demands
upon the purses of the people of the
city for donations for all institutions
and societies to which they are accus-
toned to subscribe were more numer-
GUS and insistent than they have ever
been before, they showed their appre-
citation of the Importance of the anti
tuberculosis campaign by buying more
of the seals than they bought last year
when Kenosha led the state. Wiscon-
sin people will be called upon to furn-
ish the funds for this movement for a
good many years yet in all probability
but the money will be forthcoming
and it will be given cheerfully for the
results obtained show that it is wisely
expended.

REQUIRE EXTRA MEN.

The forthcoming quadrennial weigh.

paid to the railway companies for their
services will require several extra men.
for the work, according to Fred L.

mail service. No instructions have
been received from Washington as to
the time when the weighing will begin,
but all mail will be checked for one
hundred and five days. The roads af-
fected are the Chicago and North

lines operating in the third contract
section, which includes neighboring
states.
