ings Bank May Profit by Ruling
of Referee.

Depositors of the Commercial and
Savings bank at Racine may be bene-
fitted by the ruling Of Milton Kno-
block, referee in bankruptcy, which
affects large number of accounts held
by the United Refrigerator and Ice
Machine company Of Kenosha The
referee ruled that accounts turned over
to Charles r. Carpenter and B. Hin
rfchs, officials of the defunct bank, pre-
vious to June, 1914, were to be held by
those parties and that accounts turned
over after that time were to be retain
ed by the trustee of the bankrupt COM
pany. All of the accounts were placed
in the hands of the trustee for the
company but that portion ruled on as
being the property of the two former
bank officials will be returned to them
together with whatever collections
have been made. These claims amount
to about $4,000 and whatever money
is collected on them will ultimately
find its way into the hands of the state
bank examiners to be paid out to the
depositors as dividends. Both Carpen-
ter and Hinrichs are indebted to the
bank and the funds to be turned over
to them will be made to apply to some
extent on the bank s claims.

KIDDIEs PERFORM FOR POOR.
Under Auspices of Elks, Balm School
Children Will Repeat princess
Chrysanthemum' at Rhode.

MANY ana many a Christmas in Ke-
nosha is going to be brighter and hap
pier because Of the efforts of the Balm
school children.
Last Saturday these youngsters gave
an exceptionally pretty and colorful
operetta, replete with catchy music and
wholesome, appealing lines, and it was
such a success that a member of the
Elks who was present with his little
daughter to see the evening perform
ance, thought it was too good to be
lost in the oblivion of things that were,
without the general public of Kenosha
having had chance to enjoy it.
At his suggestion to Mr.. Murphy,
the children were asked whether they
would be willing to repeat it for the
benefit of those other Kenosha young
sters whose Christmas tables might
not be well supplied except for the
generosity Of someone outside their
homes. The children were enthusiastic
over the project.
The matter was taken up with J. G.
Rhode OF the Rhode Opera house and
that theatre was arranged for, for next
Monday night when the performance
will be given under the auspices of the
Elks
The proceeds will be used to buy
Christmas dinners for families who
would not otherwise have them.
Another nice feature in connection
with the entertainment is the presenta-
tion of $50 free tickets to Mr.. Murphy
of the Balm school, These are to be di-
vided among all of the public schools
and given to those children in each
school who would be unable to buy
their own tickets to see the perform
ance.
The tickets will be 35 cents all over
the house for adults and Is cents for
children

POPE COMPANY SEEK CONTRACTS.
Chicago Sugar Beet Company in Field
Again to Get Contracts for
1916 Crop.

The Chas. Pope Sugar Works Co. of
Chicago is in the field again and taking
contracts for 1916. The agreements
provide for fiat rate of Sc per ton, the
beets to be weighed and tried at the
shipping station. The company also
offers to furnish labor to the growers
at 500 per acre. This includes all the
hand work, such as punching and thin
ming, the two hoeings and the harvest
ing.
The company has been preparing for
big business during the past summer by
thoroughly overhauling the old factory,
building new additions and installing
new machinery and equipment. This
includes an increased slicing capacity
of the plant, so that it will now be able
to convert 600 tons of beets into sugar
every day. The factory will run a day
and night shift. On account of these
improvements, the company will be able
to take care Of an increased acreage
next year.
l.. G. Villand, agricultural manager
for the company, and several assistants
are now taking orders and last week
secured contracts for about 100 acres
at various points in Racine and Kenosha
counties, which have thus far proven
to be especially adapted to the raising
of the beet richest in sugar.
The stations favored by the company
are Union Grove, Dales, Sylvania, Cor
liss, Gatliff, Racine Junction, Berryville,
Kenosha, Somers, Truesdell, Pleasant
Prairie, Trevor and Antioch, Ill
If any other stations are taken, it will
have to be at the solicitation of the
growers concerned.
The factory has just passed through
a very successful year. 1t is still size
ing beets, but expects to complete the
run by the end of the year.
1t is difficult to procure seeds in
Europe, but this will not affect the
Chas. Pope Sugar Works Co., which
claims to have enough tested seeds of
high germinative power on hand to sup
ply their growers for two years to come.
The acreage of beets in the two coun-
ties will undoubtedly be very, large next
year, as the market for sugar in this
country is assured.

ALMos1 LOST cHR1sTMAsD1NNER
Eight Riddles Had Close Call But by
Prompt Work of Associated Chart
ties the Day Was Saved.

Ii you want to contribute to the
happiness of some family by providing
its Christmas dinner, don't wait until
the eleventh hour to find the family. ,,
is the advice Of Miss Louise Cottrell,
superintendent of the Associated Chart
ties.
Last year on December %, the tele-
phone rang and woman IS voice de-
manded that tell her where there was
a family that was starving and freezing
as she wanted it for her care on Christ
mas.
~ explained to her. that there was
no such family in that condition, to my
knowledge, in Kenosha, because just as
soon as one was found in such circum-
stances immediate efforts were put
forth to make it comfortable. How
ever, I told her that I could give her
an address where she would find a
family in which were eight ittlo chill
dren with no prospects of Christmas
except. through the channel of public
charity.
THAT sounded interesting to her, she
said. She inquired if the father was
living. /. said he was She asked if
he drank. I had to admit that he did.
The voice at the other end of the tele-
phone insisted that she would not take
care of any little children suffer- g
because their father drank Later she
decided she would take the family.
December Gath after shutdown, the
same woman called me up and told me
she had found another family more
worthy of aid and that she would not
visit the one she had asked from me.
~ inquired if she had made anv in
vestigations and knew the family to
be more worthy. She said she had not
investigated but she knew it aly way.
At any rate, I was left with Jam
lily of eight to provide for after I had
supposed everyone in the city that had
applied to the Associated Charities for
aid was taken care of for Christmas.
"All the baskets had been appor-
toned and it remained for me at that
late hour when nearly everybody had
beg u their Christmas Eve festivities
to hurry about trying to find a suitable
Christmas repast for the eight little
children and the harassed mother. When
1t was found the next thing was to in
duce delivery man to carry it to her
the next morning. This was accom-
plished and the mother had the material
to serve her Christmas dinner-but che
woman who called me up on the tele-
phone was not responsible for the mat
ter being arranged without keen dis
appointment to the expectant little
ones.'
