New York, June 29.-Onc year ago
today the primary cause of the Eu-
ropean war occurred at Serajevo, the
capital of Bosnia, when Servian con-
spirators assassinated the Archdulle
Francis Ferdinand heir to the Aus
o-Hungarian throne, and his morgan
attic wife, the Duchess of Hohenburg.
The anniversary Of the crime of Sera-
ievo finds eight nations trying to over
whelm the two Teutonic countries and
their Turkish ally, with the result that
the conflict is so undetermined as TO
make this the most significant fact
of the war. Today it is nobody's
fight.
Prophesies have been unfulfilled
during the past four seasons amazing
ly, for the war has swept most prece-
dents aside. AT the beginning Of hos
tilities the Germans were said to be
forcing facing the necessity of win
ming the war during the first summer
or of being overwhelmed when the Al
lies modified their full strength. Then
came the autumn prediction that the
Germans would soon be in the throes
of economic distress. Winter brought
with it a prophecy that General Feb
ruary" would lead the Russians
through the SHOWS far into the enc
my'a country. Spring was to see the
development of the Allies offensive
in the west and the beginning of Ger
manv's permanent retirement from
Belgium and France.
Summer has once more returned
and none of the major expectations
aroused during the interval has been
realized. The war has developed a
creative process of its own, whose re-
suits can be anticipated only in slight
measure and then are subject to day
corrections. Indecision is the first
years verdict of the war. No nation
has done anything decisive, nor seems
likely to do so. The nearest approach
TO 4 decisive result has been won by
the British navy. Despite the indi-
vidual exploits of German warships

Committee in Charge Of Ar
rangements Announce
First Meeting for Sun
day P. M. at Elks Club.
EXPECT FORMER DONORS AID

Kenosha people who partook of the
spirit and charm of the community
Xmas tree idea, introduced for the first
time last season, are now making plans
for the perpetuation of the community
Xmas tree as an annual feature of the
Yule tide celebration.
More than 700 individuals acquired
membership in the organization which
promoted the tree last year and each
one of these will have an opportunity
to take a part in the formation of plans
for the tree this year. To this end, all
those who purchased membership tick
cts in the community tree last year are
invited to attend the meeting to be held
on Sunday afternoon at the Elks Club.
Anyone else interested in the tree will
be welcome at this meeting.
Of course, most of the important
work was accomplished last year, and
the preparations for the tree will be
much simpler this time. 1t will only
be necessary to obtain the tree, to have
it set up, and properly decorated. All
of the decorations have been retained
and the expense and time involved will
be greatly diminished over the time and
money expended last year.
Mrs. Beatrice Ives Welles is chair
man of the citizens committee which
promoted the tree last year and she has
issued a call for meeting of this COM
mittee to be held at 400 o'clock Sun
day afternoon at the Elks Club, when
definite arrangements will be made for
this years celebration.
Many Kenosha people have taken an
interest in this matter because it is one
of those things which has marked the
entrance of Kenosha into the commun-
ity of cities which do things. Kenosha
has now grown in population and civic
interest to the point where movements
Of this character reflect greatly to it's
credit, when it is compared with other
cities of it's size.
Tn every city of the country where
the community Xmas tree idea has been
adopted, it has never been discontinued
as the effect of the tree at that season
of the year is not only beneficial from
a commercial point of view (if it is
looked at from the most selfish point of
view but it is far more effective in
bringing together people of all creeds
and all interests for at least one gen.
era1 holiday celebration.
