HEALTH IS PATRIOTIC DUTY.
Pamphlet Urges Every Citizen Into
Organized War on Disease.

In a pamphlet entitled Fighting
Trim issued by the United States
public health service, Surgeon J. NJ.
Eager lays stress upon personal en-
deavor of every individual as of the
highest public Importance in the or
ganized war again. ~---e,.9e. The Won
derful victories that have been won in
combating infectious maladies have
had tendency to divert popular atten-
tion from the equally important per
sonal fortifcation against disease of
all kinds. The question Of prepared
ness against onslaughts Of the enemy, a
query prominent in the minds of every
one in these days of warfare, is put in
special personal bearing as relating
to the dangers threatened by disease,
the permanent enemy of mankind. Are
you personally prepared, it is asked,
for the hand-to-hand encounter with
disease that you are sure to be forced
into sooner or later or in which per
haps you are already engaged? Unless
you are willing to succumb without a
struggle, fight you must, no matter how
feeble your fighting proclivities are.
The inevitability of the battle against
disease is strongly insisted upon. In
the defense against disease two things
are necessary systematic union of
fighters, the sanitary organization, and
personal preparedness, the product of
intelligent and diligent personal by
giene Personal preparedness is the
patriotic duty of every citizen as an
aid to national sanitary defense. No
man as member of society is morally
free to live unhygienically or to ac-
quire disease through lack of personal
care. Like slovenly soldier, the person
who neglects his health risks impart-
ing to others his loose morale, or even
transmitting disease to the whole com
munity.

WOULD ENJoIN HUSBAND.

Mrs. Catherine Clegg through her at
torney, Calvin Stewart, filed a suit
in the Municipal Court asking for a
divorce from her husband, Christopher
G. Clegg alleging extreme cruelty. The
couple were married in Kenosha July
5, 1911 and they have two children.
Mrs. Clegg in her plea for divorce in
sists that her husband has frequently
abused her and applied vile names to
her and has on one occasion at least as
saulted her. She asked that he be en-
joined from interfering with her or
taking from her the custody of one of
their children pending the hearing of
the trial of the suit for divorce. She
also asks alimony for the support of
the two children. Both Mr.. and Mrs.
Clegg are living in Kenosha. The case
will be heard at the next term of the
Municipal Court.

WILL PAY BACK MONEY.
Disgruntled Contributors For Geneva
Road May Get Money Back Soon.

Some OF the disgruntled contributors
OF funds for the improvement of the
Geneva road may get their money back.
There has been lot of objecting to
the nine foot roadway along the road
and one OF the men who made a con-
trlbut1on of $500 to the fund has an
nounced his intention of enjoining the
county from building any more of the
narrow roads. This matter was taken
up informally among the members of
the Kenosha Automobile club at meet
ing on Wednesday evening and plans
are now under way to return the con-
trlbution made. The property owner in
question claims that be made the gift
with the understanding that the road
was to be improved to a width of fif-
teen feet. The county board has not
considered it wise to make the road this
wide and it is possible that an iniunc-
ton might be issued If the money is
repaid it is certain that all objections
to the improving of the road would be
removed. This is not done because the
men who have urged road building are
favorable to the narrow road, but on
account of the fact that they desire to
relieve the county board members Of
any inconvenience in carrying out road
plans already made and secure the con
tinuance of permanent road building in
the county.

soMERs TEUD AGAIN.
Charles Jensen In Hospital and Wife
Arrested on Assault Charge Today.

The old feud between the Wilkins and
Jensen families in the town of Somers
has broken out again with renewed
energy and as result Of the latest
clash Charles Jensen is in the Kenosha
hospital suffering from severe injuries
alleged to have been inflicted by Will
kins and Mrs. Lena Jensen, his wife
was arrested by Sheriff Stah1 this
morning on charges of assault and bat
terry preferred by Wilkins. It is said
that warrants for the arrest Of Will
kins will be issued just as soon as Jen-
sen is able to leave the hospital. The
neighborhood row of the Jensens and
the Wilkins family has been aired con-
siderably in the Municipal Court in
recent months and it is probable that
the court will be busy for some time
settling this latest outbreak. Mrs. Jen-
sen gave bonds and the case against
her was continued.

WILL REDUCE STATE EXPENSE.
Consolidation of State Departments
Promises Big Cut in Salaries.

With the passage through the assem-
bly, of practically all OF the proposed
consolidation bills introduced with the
endorsement of the administration, the
senate becomes the center of attention
of those interested In the success of
the administration program.
Aside from those interested in what
they consider is a movement for reduc-
ing the state s expenses, there are many
who are casting anxious eyes toward
the outcome in the senate, as the five
principal consolidation bills create a
total of thirteen positions, appointive
by the governor, with salaries ranging
from $4,000 to $4,000 year, or total
of $4,000 a year. These appointees
will take the positions now held by
large number of appointees, some sal
aried, and some honorary, drawing a
total of $4,000.
Inasmuch as the bills place all the
employees of the new boards and com
missions subject to the governor IS APP
proval, there will be positions avail
able, should the bills become law,
which pay an aggregate annual salary
of $326,500. The figures are taken from
the estimates of the committee of the
legislature, which recommended the
bills.
The thirteen salaried members of the
boards are distributed as follows: one
tax commissioner at $4,000 per year,
$4,000; five board of public welfare
members at $1,000 per year, $17,500;
three members conservation board at
$500 per year, $10,500; three members
of agriculture at $4,000 per year,
$4,000; one member printing board at
$4,000 per year, $4,000.
The amounts estimated to be spent
for employees under the new boards is
distributed as follows: tax commissioner
about $4,000; public welfare board
about $4,000; conservation board
about $186,000; agricultural board
about $4,000; printing board (no esti-
mate), $4,000; total $326,500
The amount spent for employees I'M
der the old boards last year was about
$450,000. It will be seen that the sup
porters Of the bills mentioned expect
to save over 100000 year in sal
aries. The central board Of education
and fire marshal consolidation bills in
volve no material amount.

FAIL TO PLEAD VAN VIE CASE
Sensational ssCure'' in Kenosl1a is Not
Advanced by Chiropractors.

The state senate committee consider
ing bills for the Improvement of the
practice Of medicine on Thursday af-
ternoon turned down the bill which
proposed to license chiropractors in
Wisconsin. The bill had been strongly
urged by chiropractors throughout the
state and from other states, but the
committee after a careful consideration
declared that in their belief the new
school Of practice was not entitled to
recognition under the laws of the state
at this time. It had been expected that
the case Of Frank Van VIE, who was
alleged to have been restored to his
mental faculties by the practice of a
chiropractor, would be strongly urged
before the committee, but no mention
of this case was made. It was held that
there were doubts as to the conditions
surrounding the "cure" Of Van Vie
and the state leaders in the fight to
license chiropractors kept away from
the case entirely.

FUTURE OF AMERICA.
Chancellor Bradford of Oklahoma Sees
Need Of Wider Education.

George G. Bradford, for ten years
chancellor of the University of Okla
homa and for several years leader in
Lyceum work in the United States, gave
the final number of the Kenosha Lyce-
UNI Course at the Coliseum on Friday
evening, speaking on the subject,
America S Future"
Chancellor Bradford is an eloquent
man and he made stirring appeal for
better education of the boys of Ameri-
ca in order to make it possible for them
to meet the big problems confronting
them later. He asserted that the fut-
ure Of America lay not in the raising
of great armies or the building Of great
navies, but in building up the nation s
educational systems so that the boys
and girls might properly take their
place in promoting a great nation of
peace. He declared that the great fut-
ure of America was to be found in its
"uncrowned manhood and that the
manhood Of Americans was the great
est asset of the nation. He spoke of
the ideals of great men and paid tri-
butte to the Christian citizenship of
men who had been great in the affairs
of the state. He painted wonderful
word picture of the life and work of
former President Mckinley and point
ed to him as the real type for the boys
of America to follow Chancellor
Bradford spoke at length on the great
movements for social education. He
emphasized the necessity of giving the
boys training along lines which would
enable them to better meet the de-
mands that the world is making on
them today. There was no plea for the
good old times and the three "Rsn as
the chancellor is an ardent advocate Of
the new form of education along prac-
teal lines.
The lecture failed to prove a big
drawing card and the chancellor was
greeted by a crowd Of about sixty
people.

MRS. DAISY GETS DIVORCE.
"Wife in Name Only Secures Decree
in Municipal Court This Morning.

Alleging that she had been wife in
name only for more than two years,
Mrs. Pearl B. Daisy appeared in the
municipal court on Friday afternoon
and asked for legal separation from her
husband, Don L. Daisy. She charged
cruelty, but the evidence in the case
did not emphasize this charge. Mrs.
Daisy testified that she and her hus-
band had nothing in common and that
while they had lived in the same house
for more than two years they had occu-
pied adjoining rooms. She declared
that they had no friends in common
and that her husband while an excel
lent provider for her and their one
child had given her none of the sym
pathy which a wife would expect from
husband. Daisy did not appear to
contest the divorce and the divorce
counsel Peter Fisher, Jr., refused to
sanction the granting of the decree I'M
til after he had secured a statement
from Daisy. Mrs. Daisy left the court
room and later brought her husband to
the Office of Attorney Fisher. He de-
clared that he was willing that his wife
should be granted divorce. In her
testimony Mrs. Daisy declared that her
husband was perfect gentleman y in
every way except as husband. Judge
Randall signed the order granting the
divorce this morning and awarded the
wife the custody Of the one minor
child.

STICK BY FRATERNAL ORDERS
City Is Ranked Fortieth in the State
in the Amount of Insurance Paid on
Death Losses-Many Large Amounts
Paid Out in the State.

That Kenosha people are improvi.
dent when it comes to the purchase of
life insurance or that the purchase of
life insurance is really bringing long
life to Kenosha people is shown by the
annual report of life insurance paid in
the United States issued today. While
Kenosha is rated as the eighth city in
Wisconsin in population and one of the
largest of the manufacturing cities of
the state it ranks fortieth in the
amount of life insurance paid. During
the past year all insurance companies
paid for life benefits in Kenosha but
$21,500. Agents of insurance compan-
les insist that the low place for Keno
sha is due to the fact that Kenosha
has in the past been known as ezra
ternal City, This means that much of
the life insurance carried by Kenosha
men and women is written by frater-
nal organizations which have a monthly
payment plan in the collection of pre-
miums. Nearly every one of the larger
fraternal organizations of the country
has its chapter in Kenosha and some of
the organizations have memberships ex-
ceeding 500 in the city. 1t is held that
many of the members of these organiza-
tics carry no other kind of insurance.
In recent years some of this fraternal
insurance has been gathered in by rep
resentatives of the old line companies
on account of rate fights but it is still
claimed that very large proportion of
the insurance carried by policy holders
in Kenosha is of the "fraternal Sort
There were no large policies of insur-
ance paid in Kenosha during the past
year and the $21,500 paid by the old
line companies was made up of more
than a dozen small amounts. In fact the
average policy paid by the companies
in Kenosha would not exceed $1,000.
Kenosha is given credit for being a
great center for the sale of small in
surance< policies. Kenosha men carry
policies of few dollars or few hun
dred dollars on the lives of their wives
and children and great mass of these
policies are carried with view of pro-
viding funds for burials. Many of
these little policies are brought to
light every year. The writing of this
kind Of insurance has been reduced to
an art in Kenosha and it is declared
that no less than twenty men are Kept
busy all of the time, most of them
writing these small policies. The re-
port of the amount OF insurance paid
in the leading cities of Wisconsin is as
follows

MedfOrd Choir at
Armory Tuesday

Coming as it does during passion
week and just preceding Good Friday
seems a particularly opportune time
to hear Stalner's "Crucifixion," as it
will more fully prepare not only all
professed Christians of all creeds but
the general public to appropriately
observe and reverently approach the
most momentous event'in the worlds
history, whether considered from a
religious or secular standpoint. The
strong Impressions for good that will
be made on all who hear the First
Methodist Episcopal choir of Medford
at the armory Tuesday night deserve
the united and hearty support Of all
church-going people of all faiths, for
they certainly will leave with us the
ever-new story of Christ's awful
agony and suffering on the cross. 1t

will occupy one of these. The con-
sideration was $4,000. Mrs. Rapp
will live in Talent.
S. L. Hoge sold land near Ashland
to Carl Lewis Tor $500,
F. G. Berger sold a place in Wool
ems addition to Otto Michel for a
consideration of $1,000, and another
place in block IL for the same price.
Miss Bertha Barnhilf has pur-
chased an acre of land on Winner just
above Alta avenue, formerly owned
by e. A. Estes, and will erect house
thereon.
The Hodgson-W -Whitmore real estate
company has handled several deals
during the past week, among them
being the sale of place belonging to
John Barger on Beach street, to W.
Pepper. Also a 160-acre piece of
partly improved land on the highway
belonging to e. g. Pinkerton and sold
to Mrs. Emma Wing.
w E. Whitmore has purchased a
160-acre ranch in Sans Valley from
John Gibson. This place was for
merly known as the Praytor place.
Besides these there have been sew
eral minor transfers.
Along building lines, too, renewed
activity is evident. The remodeling
of the Star Theatre and the rebuild
fing Of George Stephenson's building
on South Main street, the beginning
of a modern bungalow on Allison
street by Mr.. Keller, numerous minor
additions and changes and additions
to residences indicate renewed activ-
ity along building lines. Besides
these projects upon which actual
work is going on, there are several
other building operations being
planned.
After summing up all of the real
estate activities of the past three
weeks we can confidently state that
there has been more activity along
these lines during the past weeks
than during the past year. Ashland
is awakening to her opportunities
and things are going to hum.
