MOVIE THEATRES ARE SAFE
Inspectors Find Many Defects from
Electric Wiring in Older Buildings in
the Town Down Districts Factories
to be Visited Soon.

The annual inspection of buildings in
Kenosha is being made by the captains
of the Kenosha fire department and
within the next month every building
In the city used for business or manu-
featuring purposes, every church and
school house and in fact every building
where public gatherings are held will
be inspected from cellar to roof by the
captains. Captain Charles Schend is in
charge of the inspection in the down
town district; Captain Hansen of the
west side, and Captain Jensen of the
north side. The captains are giving
practically all of their time to the ex-
animation of the buildings and report
is being made on every building on a
blank especially arranged for the pur-
pose. These inspections have proved of
greatest value in the past and for the
most part property owners have cheer
fully met the suggestions Of the cap
tains in repairing defects. Especial at
tention is being given to big buildings
where public gatherings are being held.
The picture theatres are being watch
ed with a great deal of care
The movie theatres are all in ex-
cellent condition. said Captain Schend
this morning eve watch these places
with great deal of care on account
of the large number of women and
children attending the performances
given in them. The owners of all the
theatres have met our suggestions in
a friendly spirit and the carrying out
OF suggestions has gone a long way
toward bringing safety in all of these
buildings. We are finding a lot of de-
fects in the olde1 buildings in the down
town districts These defects are for
the most part defects in electric wiz
ing and they show plainly the need of
proper inspection of this sort of work
when the buildings are built. 1t is real
~ remarkable that defective work in
putting in the electric wires has not
been responsible for more fires in
Kenosha y
In the outlying districts of the city
the inspectors are giving their attention
to the factory buildings The Kenosha
factory managers have been given a
clear bill Of health by the state indus
trial commission and it is certain that
the report of the local inspectors will
be just as favorable. The local man
ufacturers have been pioneers in the
safety movement and this movement
in the local plants has been especially
strong along the lines of fire protection.

INSISTS ON THE LOCATION
Members of Board Will Demand That
County Erect Sanatorium on South
east Side Of the Creek. Running
Through the Farm in Somers.


The state board of control gave its
sanction to the plans for the new Ke
nosha tuberculosis Sanatorium Tuesday
afternoon when Chairman L. r. Grosve-
nor Of the committee, appeared before
| the board and presented the new
sketches of the proposed sanatorium
The members of the board including
| former Governor Davidson, DIR. Lewis
and Mrs. Williams of Milwaukee, not
only placed their sanction on the plans
but they declared that the plan was the
| best presented to them for county
sanatorium. With the plans approved
the architect, Joseph Lindl will at once
| proceed with the making Of specifca-
tons and it is expected that these will
be ready within the next two weeks
so that bids for the building will be
sought early in April. The specifca.
tions as well as the plans must be APP
proved by the state board of control.
While the state board has approved
the plans with considerable enthusiasm
| the members have also set their foot
down with a good deal of vigor in de
c1aring that the site picked by the
members of the board some time ago
must be accepted. Many of the mem
| bers Of the county board were DESTROYS
| of locating the new sanateriam on the
northwest corner of the property re-
Gently purchased by the county, but
this suggestion does not in any way
! meet with the approval Of the members
/, of the state board and they have in
sisted that the building be located on
some site south and east of the creek
which winds its way through the Run
ais farm.
The site selected by the members of
| the committee was one at the north
west corner Of the farm. It overlooked
the deep ravine and the members Of the
/ board had planned to set the building
| Just under the crest of the hill using
| the hill as a wind break. The mem
bers of the state board insist that if
the building is located on the south and
east side of the creek that the great
trees and the hills on the other side
will form a much better protection for
| it against the vigorous weather of the
Kenosha county winters. Members of
| the Wisconsin Anti Tuberculosis Asso-
| citation have taken the side of the Ke-
nosha board members, but this associa-
tion has no power to dictate the action
| of the state board. Tt is really import
ant that the suggestion of the state
board be followed as this board could
refuse to permit the institution to re
eeive patients from other counties if it
desired to go to such an extent.
There is no reason to believe that
| there will be any friction between the
| members Of the committee and the
members of the state board of control,
but at that the state officials will be
asked to make another visit to Keno
sha with the understanding that the
Kenosha men will urge their sugges-
ton as to locating the sanatorium. It
is admitted that either of the sites will
offer beautiful setting for the sana-
| forum.
