when Racine and Milwaukee are con-
neeted by a fine concrete road. He
said that such a road would be of
mutual advantage to both cities. Ra-
cine, In his opinion, is the finest sum
mer resort on Lake Michigan. In that
respect 1t far out-rivals Milwaukee.
With the completion of concrete link
between the two cities, there viii be
ten Milwaukee people coming to Ra-
cine to every one Racinite going to
Milwaukee. Mayor Bading spoke with
pride of the great strides made by
Milwaukee towards improved streets
since he went into office.
-Four years ago a state road expert
said that the Milwaukee streets were
the worst in the United States. Last
October the delegates to the Northwest
Road Congress held in the Wisconsin
metropolis said that Milwaukee was
the official good roads capital of the
United States. Mr.. Bading said that
he was glad to attend this meeting in
order to give the work his moral sup
port, and promised all assistance in his
power in furthering the project.
Dan Head, ex-mayor of Kenosha and
at the present time president of the
Kenosha Auto Club, told of the work
accomplished in Kenosha county. He
said that money enough has been appro-
priated to run the concrete road out of
the city of Kenosha to Central Park.
This statement was roundly applauded,
as Central Park is almost at the boun-
Diary line of Kenosha and Racine
counties.
The contracts for this work have al
ready been signed. The Kenosha peo-
pie decided to complete this stretch
first rather than run their concrete road
towards Chicago. The Chicago end will
be started after the north road is
finished. President O'Connor of the
Milwaukee Citizens Business League,
also gave a short talk. He said that
the organization of which he is the
head was the first to promote the ce-
ment highway. He complimented Ra-
cine and Kenosha counties for taking
up the work and doing their share,
John Hardwood, chairman Of the
Wisconsin highway commission, in
opening his talk, said that year ago
he came to criticise Racine for it's
slackness in road building, but that he
came this time to compliment the city.
Last year Racine spent $4,000 for good
roads. Mr. Hardwood highly com
mended this action. He told at some
length of the retraction of the force
clause" in the highway law. Through
the doing away of this clause Racine
county will lose $4,000 of her share of
state aid in road making this year
This is because the people living in
the townships do not understand the
highway aid plan. They do not know
that a certain amount of money is TAX
en- from their taxes every year for
good road building, so when they go to
the polls on election day they do not
ask for their full portion of this amount

KENoSHATO Do HER SHARE NOW
Racine and Milwaukee Pledge Early
Completion of Road to Connect Cities
but Money Enough has Not Been
Raised in the Counties.

The proposed road linking Milwaukee
tinuous stretch of concrete, fifteen feet
in width, received new incentive on
Thursday afternoon when live wire
boosters from the three leading lake
shore cities met at the Commercial
Club in Racine, perfected plans which,
it is believed, viii ultimately result in
the completion of the drive. Talks,
teeming with enthusiasm were given by
Mayor Bading, Milwaukee; Mayor
elect Thiesen, Racine; ex-Mayor Dan
0. Head of Kenosha; Highway Engi-
neer John Hazelwood and other lead
ing good road boosters
The gist of their talks was that this
is the time to connect the q foating'
strips of concrete highways grouping
north and south from the three cities
which wish to be connected, and that
the only way to bring this about is to
get together and all pull at once. F"
May Thiesen of Racine, was the
first speaker. Mr.. Thiesen said that
he has always been supporter of good
roads, and that in his capacity as may
or Of Racine he will do all in his power
to aid in the construction of good roads.
II will give you all the assistance
in my power to build good roads in
this county, said Mr.. Thiesen. ct
will devote my time and my best efforts
to the city Of Racine. In this ask the
loyal assistance of all. Of course there
is bound to be some discord- there al
ways is; but will do the best in my
power to conduct an administration
that will beat that of ex-Mayor Hor-
liek-if such thing is possible"
Mayor Bading of Milwaukee said
that he would be glad to see the day

FOR BETTER SCHOOLS.
Gov. Philip Speaks for Rural Schools
Before Racine Club on Saturday.

A plea for greater efficiency in Wis
consin common schools was made by
Gov. Philip speaking to two hundred
members of the Racine Commercial
Club Saturday night. A reception pre-
ceded the banquet and when the state
chief executive rose to speak he was
given an ovation.
The trouble with our present sys-
tenn is we begin at the top and work
downward, instead of beginning at the
bottom" the governor said. lin
Wisconsin there are 100000 pupils who
will never see the university
Small village and country schools
are the greatest factors in the educa-
ton of our people, but in Wisconsin
they have been sadly neglected. No
material steps have been taken in
thirty-fve years.
.'The principal difficulty L; ftsiie,iiitty is, it seems
to me, the teachers in our small schools
are young and immature girls. They
are not to be blamed.e It is our fault
If the salaries are not such as to at
tract more mature and capable in
structors.
With conditions as they are young
persons can not be blamed for foeking
to the cities where educational facili-
ties are SO much superior. It is our
duty to provide better schools for those
IN villages and in the country
Gov. Philip said he advocated bet
ter wages and an extension Of the
county training school system for bet
ter preparation of teachers. He said
the university and normal schools
were credit to the state, and he was
willing they should get as much fnan-
cial aid as the people could afford to
give them, but he did not want them
to get more than their fair share. He
called attention to the large number
of normal schools and said one was be-
ing built and two more were wanted
by some.
: Unless some one calls a halt there
will soon be normal school in every
senatorial district, and they will be
able to get whatever they want
through control Of the senate" the
governor said.
Speaking on the administration plan
for consolidation of boards and com
missions, the governor said 100000
could be saved by merging depart
ments without losing efficiency.
Citing an instance the governor said
the board of immigration is now cost
ing the state $50 for every settler
brought to Wisconsin and said it would
be better, in his opinion, to offer a
bonus of $50 for new settlers.
The governor spoke briefly, correct
ing the impression support was to be
withdrawn from the state fair. eve

Most of the property owners of the
city are not waiting for the official
spring cleaning days and the work
OF clearing up wards and gardens is go
ing forward in all sections of the city
but there will be enough neglected
yards and corners left to consume all
of the enthusiasm for clean and sani-
tary city that can be worked up be-
tween now and the last Of the month.
the date set for the regular city house,
cleaning Tt is needless to say that
the efforts of the Retailers Association
will be ably seconded by the health
department. and the city officials gen
orally and when the three clean up
days are over it is expected that not
the greater part of the city but the
whole Of it will be in condition for the
coming Of the hot weather. But that
is not all that is expected to be ac-
complished by the municipal house
cleaning. There is a lot of property
that is in good sanitary condition and
IN no way menace to the public
health that is unsightly enough to be
a decided detriment to the neighbor-
hoods in which it is permitted to lie
neglected and uncared for and it is this
property that must be reached if Ke-
nosha is to be the "eity beautiful. J"
As matter Of fact the health de-
partment could be trusted to look af-
ter any plague spots that may ex-
ist in the city but it takes consider
able degree Of civic pride and the CO.
operation of all property owners to
make Kenosha as beautiful and attrac-
tive as it can very easily be made with
the expenditure of little time and
energy, 1t is that all together and
stand together spirit that the plan Of
having regular clean up time will
arouse and it will not take much Of this
spirit to make Kenosha the best city
in the state in which to live and own
a home. The natural advantages are
here.

Efficiency is the watchword these
days in every enterprise both public
and private. Pull and connections
count for less every day in every walk
Of life and the men who cannot de-
liver, are forced to step aside for those
who can. No one can blame the mem
bers of the council for their determine
ton to apply the efficiency test to the
transaction OF public business and for
insisting that the men best qualified
to run them shall be appointed to head
the different committees Of that body
There is lot of work to be done by
somebody in the council-few people
realize how much time member of
that body must devote to the business
of the city if he does his duty and car
ries his share of the burden-and the
effort of the aldermen to get the bust
ness Of the city transacted as expedi-
tiously and efficiently as possible is to
be commended rather than criticised
The less politics there is in the school
board and in the council the better it
viii be for the city. Look at the past
record of the water commission if you
want an example of what can be ac-
complished by strictly non-partisan
administration of public business.
