WILL HAVE MANY SHOWERS.
This Is Not Weather Report But a
Representation Regarding the
Fresh Air School.

Nourishing food and plenty of it is
as much a requisite to build up the
health of the youngsters who are placed
in the open air schools for their daily
work as is the fresh air which they find
so beneficial.
Some of the most appetizing viands
which find their way to the tables there
have been, each year, the gifts of chill
Gren of the other schools.
Because in the past having just one
shower has been bit embarrassing in
that it brought many things to be taken
care of at one time and left long inter
walls with no contributions, the manage
meDt Of the school has suggested what
Is believed will be far more satisfac.
tory plan. Showers will be held in DIFF
ferent schools, about two weeks apart.
In this way the fresh fruits and 'vege-
tables can be used as they come in, All
food materials are acceptable, including
canned vegetables, cereal foods, canned
fruit and je1lies.
The times of the different showers
ond the schools in which they are to be
given will be announced through She
children and the paper, thus informing
those who wish to give where and when
to make their contributions.

MRS. HASKELL, AGAIN.
Her Second Appearance in M. e. Course
Is Greeted by Large Audience Who
Thoroughly EnioYed Her Work.


Again a large and appreciative Keno
sha audience has greeded Mrs. Fannie
Sargent Haskell and listened with pleas
ure to her reading.
Last night in the Methodist church
Mrs. Haskell presented the romantic
play eff Were King" She has mag
netism and technique, a good combina-
tion when backed by fine intelligence
and understanding which prompt sym
pathetic Interpretation, both of which
are Mrs. Haskell s.
She stepped with ease from the char
acter of the heroic, virile Villon to that
of the crafty, scheming, weakly, mis-
chief loving, cruel King Louis; and quite
as gracefully she assumed the role of
the proud and beautiful Catherine with
her coquetry and charm. It is the YER
satility Of Mrs. Haskell that pleases.
Never for a moment does she let one
character intrude upon another in her in
depreciation. The pose and the voice of
the hero, Francois Villon, the manner
isms Of the King and the other charac-
ters as she essays them are so different
that without the text to guide one, after
she was fairly on with her story, it was
easy to distinguish the personalities
presented, merely from these externals
If the third and last of the series of
the G. w. Best entertainments which
the Methodist church is presenting to
the public, shall prove as acceptable as
that of last night, the course will be
such that its projectors may well be con-
graduated. The two programs given
have been of high class and have had
their educational aspect as well as being
delightful entertainment.
The last entertainment of the series
is scheduled for the night of Dec. 2.
Miss Helen Brown Read, soprano, SO far
unknown to Kenosha audiences, is to
sing. Her advance notices are compli-
mentary and with her accompanist, Miss
Edith Harris, she is said to have scored
hits in various parts of the country.
With her is Signor Alberto Salvi,
Venetian harpist, who came to Kenosha
last winter under the same auspices.
Signor Salvi will be pleasantly remem-
bered and those who heard him last year
will not fail to repeat the experience,
while those who did not hear him before
cannot afford to miss the opportunity
Of hearing him this time,

L. H. HowE,s TRAVEL FESTIVAL.
Comes to the Rhode Opera House Next
Monday and Tuesday.

An attraction that inspires its audi
enee with new thoughts, that broadens
our knowledge of the world in general
and stimulates discussion, is well
worthy of liberal praise. Such an at
traction is Lyman II. Howe s Travel
Festival which comes to the Rhode next
Monday and Tuesday nights and
special school children IS matinee Tues
day at 3:45 .. m. While Mr.. Howe
can always be relied upon to thorough
ly amuse, at the same time his exhibit
ton imparts much information which
could not be derived from any other
source. The program to be presented
on the coming engagement will take
"Howe travellers" on a steamer ride
through the fjords of Norway, with
side trip to Hammerfest, the most
northerly town of Europe. This series
also reveals the famous Midnight Sun,
native Laplanders in camp, reindeer
drawing odd-looking sleds, and a most
remarkable spectacle showing several
thousand reindeer in herd swimming
across wide body of water. In Spain
will be witnessed the tower of Giralda,
a Roman bridge over one thousand
years old, sardine fishermen at work,
native types of peasantry and arts
tocracy ranging from babyhood to old
age, etc. Hawaii, the 'tParadise of the
Pacific" is Complementary covered,
and there win be weird dissolving por-
traits of famous men, various activi-

HEARD AsTUTE ASTRONOMER.
ST. Matthew's Mems Club Entertained
Last Night with Interesting Facts
Raoardino The skies

ivy O41AS O14U Eoh4OSs
The moon, the stars and other mar
wells of the universe were treated from
the astronomical point of view in a
most interesting lecture on "Astrono-
my" given before st. Matthew's Men s
Club at its monthly supper held in the
Guild Hall last night. The lecturer
was Philip Fox of Northwestern Uni
versity and he proved to be a most
diverting talker as well as a dissemin-
ator Of valuable information.
After the lecture the new picture ma
chine which has lately been acquired
by ST. Matthew's parish was set up
and stereopticon illustrations of the
lecture as well as series of other pic
lures were shown. The initiation of
the machine proved to be a subject of
congratulations and the parish feels
that it has something of unusual value
as means Of general entertainment.
Richard Cavanagh, president of the
Men s Cub acted as chairman of the
program which followed the supper.

The people out on Balm avenue prob
ably do not want to buy cat in bag.
1t is just possible that some of them
would want the street opened even if
it was found necessary to install a
subway. One thing should be done
now and that is to find out just what
the people want. If any children are
crawling under freight cars on their
way to school their parents should be
arrested for criminal negligence.

And we would suggest that the
County Board could save the time Of

an annual feed up at the Racine county
asylum for the insane. We suppose
that Kenosha county is getting service
for the money it pays Racine county
and there is no reason why dinner
should be staged to collect the bill.

A Glance Back and a Look Ahead.

The old saying that "hindsight is
better than foresight is amply verb
fed in the result Of the recent election.
The Republicans put up stiff fight
and came within an ace of winning,
but they nevertheless lost on margin
SO narrow it will be the cause of end
less regrets. And already some Repub-
hcans are ready to admit it was mis-
take, amounting to a downright blum
der, whe1 the party leaders refused to
accept Roosevelt as the nominee, and
worked early and late to prevent him
from getting the nomination. The
New York Globe, one of the strongest
supporters of Hughes, now frankly
says: eff Roosevelt had been nomin-
ated, if the narrow minded men in con-
troll of the Chicago convention had
dropped their blind animosity, little
doubt can be entertained that the coun-
try would have been swept" And the
same idea doubtless will find frequent
expression during the discussion Of
how it happened"
And, in truth, there is much reason
to believe that Roosevelt would have
carried the Republican ticket to sue
cess this year, and that only the EEblind
animosity" of certain narrow-mind-
ed" leaders prevented a Republican
victory that would have put the Re
publican party back in complete control
Of the national government. Certainly
there can be no question that Roosevelt
would have carried every state won by
Hughes, while there is every reason to
believe he also would have carried such
states as Minnesota, North Dakota,
Kansas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Ari-
IONA and California, and possibly sew
eral other western states where Prog
ressive sentiment is strong. Even Ohio
might have been retained for the Re-
publicans, and at least it could have
done no worse than it did. And when
just one state like California would
have changed the balance to Republi-
can favor, it is now plain that the re-
fusal of the party leaders to take
Roosevelt was a grievous mistake.
However, there is no use in crying
over split milk, and the thing now to
do is to look ahead and commence to
plan for the future. Much may hap
pen during the next four years to ma
terially change conditions and alter
the aspect of the political situation,
but if the Republican leaders are wise
they will profit by the lesson which
has been given them. This is the Sec
ond time, in fact, they have had an
experience which should warn them
against the folly of disregarding the
public will and attempting to force
matters according to plans they them
selves have mapped out. And it is to
be hoped they will not make yet an
other blunder Of the same kind -Four
years hence they should be ready to
give the Republican party real
chance, which will mean real victory
instead of gaining only the BOBBY
prize.-Oshkosh Northwestern.

THREE COMMISSIONERS
TO BE APPOINTED

Washington, Aug. foundations
are that President Wilson will APP.
point three commissioners within the
next few days to meet a similar dele
cation already selected by General
Carranza to undertake settlement Of
the disturbed conditions along the
Mexican border.
In a note delivered 10 the state de-
partment General Carrauza named
his commissioners, but did not ans.
wer specifically the suggestion Of the
Washington government for enlarge
ment Of tAe powers Of the commission
1t is believed chat the reply is gener
ally satisfactory to the administra'
ton, and that negotiations will pro
coed without delay.
General Carranza in his note said
that the Mexican commissioners pref
erably would discuss three points out
lined in the Mexica Accommodation
Of July Il: Withdrawal Of American
troops from Mexico, the framing OF
a protocol to cover future border op'
crations. and investigation Of what
interests have promoted border raids
state department officials are un'
derstood to regard this as at least
leaving the way open for broader con-
sideration should the commission be
successful in finding a solution for
immediate problems.
1t Is possible that in notifying the
Mexican government Of the appoint
ment Of the American commissioners
and the time and place Of the confer
cnce, Acting Secretary Of state Polk
will take occasion to indicate again
that the United States expects the
conferees to be free from the close
limitations implied in the new Mex
lean note, hut will avoid any detailed
expression on that point.
