Employ Leisure Time Experts.


MADISON, Wis, July 21.-Wiscon
sin has come to bat with another idea
This time it is a solution OF the leiS-
ure time problem along somewhat diff
ferent lines than those followed csc
where. 1t is the belief in several Wis
cons!n cities that systematic employ
ment of leisure time by boys and
girls. young men and young women,
does not come through erection o.
buildings and purchase Of equipment.
It is rather through leadership than
9th erwise.
Acting on this theory, NeemaE,
Stoughton, EdEerton and several 9TH
er places have employed community
secretaries or athletic managers, SUI h
as are employed in Kenosha, Superior.
Milwaukee and other larger cities.
Paul II. Coon, formerly of Chicago,
and Genevieve Demming, both Of the
University of Wisconsin gymnasium,
have been engaged to organize and
systematic recreation and games OF
all sorts and for all ages in Neemah.
In Stoughton, nearly $50 young mel
and boys have agreed to pay 81 each
provided the school board approp:i-
ates q similar amount for salary for a
town recreation manager. w. B. Free
man, ex-college football, baseball and
wrestling star has been offered the
position. Boys of Edgerton have Or
ganized also, to employ recreation
manager.

Only Drawback Suggested 10 That Of
Having to Purchase Lots in Or
der to Get Better Bridge
Approach.
us GENERALLY FAVORED
Merchants Seem to Think That Time
to Get Property Is Now and
That Town Will
Profit BY II.

That the bridge approach which will
obviate the difficulty Of the steep
grade from First to Second street on
Main, is the only one to be consid-
cred seems to be the general opinion
OF the business men Of the city. The
only obstacle torthe' plan suggested
may be the price which would have
to be paid for the property.
were sounded this morning, on the
subject, and they were practically
unanimous in their desire to see the
roadway built according to the new
plan, which will do away with all OF
the grade, practically which is now
such an obstacle.
That this is the time, too, to do the
work is the belief of many of them.
The property probably can be secured
at a more reasonable figure than 1t
can be later, and no doubt the advan'
tage will he well worth the money
paid. 1t is felt, however, that If there
is any plan other than that of pur'
chasing the lots, it should be given
consideration.
Keokuk no doubt will profit by hav'
ing the approach made so that the re-
suit practically is a high bridge, it is
felt by most Of the men who were
seen this morning. The steep grade
is a disadvantage to people who are
forced to drive or walk UP the steep
hill, and local people and visitors
alike are afflicted. The roadway
would be so constructed that people
need not come over the bridge to take
advantage in the reduction on the
grade.
Just what plan might be followed
other than that of purchasing the
property few ventured to suggest
Condemnation proceedings we're suS
gested by one or two men.

Evening.
APPENDICITIS cAUs E
Operation Performed Friday Evening
Funeral VIII be Held To-
morrow Morning at ST.
Peters Church.

News of the death of Gladys Anna
Murphy cast a shadow OF sorrow over
the hearts Of a great number OF pep
ple In this city yesterday evening.
Rarely has the death Of any person
here been SO deeply regretted. There
are few 51pIeeocple who did not know her.
She was possessed OF i rare and re-
markable personality. She made
friends without knowing It. There
were many who occasionally passing
her on the street, found, although they
hardly knew her name, something IN
her face which drew them to her.
When the news OF her death was
learned down town last night, express
sions of sincere regret were heard
everywhere. They came from Poop 9
of all ages and of all walks in life.
Some of these had known her all her
life and some had seen her but once
or. twice. Yet all felt they were her
friends.
Her death followed sudden at
tack of appendicitis which occurred
Tuesday night OF last week. She was
removed to the ST. Joseph hospltai
Friday and operated upon that even
ing. Physicians in attendance offered
little hope for her recovery and sne
had fingered between lie ana ueath
from Friday night until 7:3o yester'
day evening when she passed away;
Gladys Murphy was Keokuk slri,
born and reared here and had spent
practically her entire life In this city.
She was eighteen years old the TENN
of last December
She was educated in the SCHOOLS
here, completing her school work az
St Peters. She was member or the
ST. Peters Catholic church, devout IN
her belief Of it's teachings, faithful
and constant in the performance OF
her duties imposed by it. She also
was a member of the Children OF
Mary, an organization in the church.
She was daughter of VIM. and
Jennie Murphy, 400 South First street
who with three sisters and one bro
Their. survive her. They are Mrs. Ell
mer v. D. Mas, Madeline Murphy
Helen Murphy and Frank Murphy, al
of this city.
The funeral services will be held al
