PLACES WOMAN ON PAROLE.
Mrs. Frances Dynzenski Pleads Guilty
to Statutory Charge in the
Municipal Court.

Mrs. Frances Dynzenski, a comely
Polish woman, the mother of four
children, appeared in the Municipal
Court on Monday afternoon to answer
statutory charges in which Joseph
Hines, who was sentenced to three
year term ON Monday, was mentioned.
The woman could not be said to have
been over penitent, but she told the
court that she had returned to her
home and children and that she would
appreciate another chance. She went
back to Jail for the night and this
morning the court placed her under
parole to the State Board of Control
for an indefinite period. This action
was taken on account of the fact that
the four little children were sadly in
need of the care Of their mother. The
husband of the woman was agreeable to
giving her another chance to make good.

MUSICIANS INJURED.
Members of Racine Orchestra on Their
Way to Kenosha Injured in
Automobile Mishop.

Carl Schultz, Fred Schultz, Earl Gere
and G. t. Kintner, members of the
Schultz Orchestra in Racine, started to
Kenosha on Thursday evening to play
at the annual Thanksgiving Day party
at I&emper hail. When on the Durrant
Road a short distance from Racine, the
steering gear of the automobile broke
and it went into the ditch. The men
were badly shaken up, but none of them
severely injured. The automobile was
so badly wrecked that it was impos-
sible for them to continue the trip.
They made their way back to Racine
and had minor injuries taken care of
and by this time it VISA so late as to
make it impossible for them to come to
Kenosha. The accident did not pre-
vent the party being held at Kemper
hall and plenty of music was furnish
ed from members of the student body
of the school.

Sheridan Road and they told a farmer
in the neighborhood that they were
out of gasoline and that they were
going to Kenosha to get some. They
never returned and the farmer mott
fed the sheriff Stahl and his men

GIFTS WOULD AID MUCH.
School Nurse Offers Suggestions for
Christmas Giving That Would Do
Worlds of Good,

Miss Kinney, the school nurse, who
has gone into some of the darkest and
most hopeless of Kenosha's homes and
knows conditions which she feels certain
if known to others would result in an
avalanche of wisely directed Christmas
giving, writes the following:
"Every night through the medium of
the Evening News, the attention of the
public is called to many articles suit
able for Christmas gifts. May I not
offer some suggestions that will not
alone cheer at the Christmas season but
for the rest of the year and in the
years to Gomez
"Perhaps many of my readers are
not acquainted with some of the exist
ing conditions right here in our city.
"Let me enumerate few of my sug-
gestions.
"First of all, free bed in Kenosha
hospital This would always be at the
disposal Of children who have corfec-
lions for physical defects and need medi-
cal care. While these children come
from homes that are not on the charity
lists, yet their parents cannot meet this
extra burden.
"Second, braces and supporters to
correct the condition of crippled and de-
formed children.
"Third, glasses for defective vision
and operations for pathological condi-
tions. I have in mind at present sew
eral children who need glass eyes but
whose parents are unable to save enough
from their scanty earnings to supply
this necessity. Ut may be well to add
here that unless the glass eyes are pro-
cured, the eye socket contracts or chan
ges shape so that it will create last
ing dissimilarity between the normal
eye and the affected one.)
''Fourth, dental work on defective
and deformed teeth.
sEThink this over and see if these
suggestions appeal to your sympathy.
I am sure if they are followed it will
bring to you both happiness and joy
Gus Christmas spirit.

ASKED TO AID UNCLE SAM.
Postmaster German Urges Parcels
Intended for Christmas Gifts
be Mailed Early.

tsDo your Christmas mailing now. -
That is the appeal to the public
made on Monday by Postmaster james
German who points out that in the past
great difficulty has been experienced by
the postal service because of delayed
mailing during the holidays.
Delayed mailing retards expedite
GUS handling" said Mr.. German, de-
spite the fact that the force of clerks
and carriers is greatly augmented and
regular employees are required to work
from twelve to sixteen hours day
In giving instructions as to security
packing and wrapping parcels, he de-
clares that many of the parcels de-
posted in the postofice day or two
before Christmas are prepared care
lessly, due to the rush at the last
minute. Such parcels are likely to
reach the addresses in an untidy or
damaged condition.
As to the mailing of Christmas
cards, the same caution to do it as
early as possible is given. If the cards
are inclosed in envelopes, the envelopes
may be marked, edo not open until
Christmas. Christmas cards with tin
sci, metal, glass or mica ornamentation
can only be mailed in tightly seal
ed envelopes.

PLENTY OF MONEY IN SIGHT
Mayor Urges Diverting Part Of Fund for
Cleaning River to Building Isolation
Hospital But the Budget Goes
Through without Change.

The council fused and fumed con-
siderably over the tax levy and the
budget at the meeting on Monday even
ing and several of the members sug-
gested that it be raised to seventeen
mills, but when the final vote on the
report of the committee was taken it
was unanimous for the report and for
the sixteen mills, the same tax as levied
in 1915 The tax levy proper will raise
$547, 172.88 and the committee estimates
that receipts from other sources will be
$l50,000. This is going to give the
city pretty close to 100000 for the
running expenses in 1917 and with
some 100000 balances in the various
funds this ought to be enough. This
will mean pretty close to three
quarters of a million dollars.
The most serious objection was made
on the grounds that it did not provide
an appropriation for extensive paving
of streets and that it did not provide
for the isolation hospital project.
Both of these objections were met by
the committee 1t was held that little
paving could be done in the coming
year on account Of the fact that sewers
must be built in many Of the streets.
The city attorney held that if the city
wanted money for paving it would be
an easy matter to take it from any
fund which had balance and place
it in the sewer and paving fund
Mayor Pfennig expressed regret that
the budget did not make an appropria-
tion for the building Of the isolation
hospital. He suggested that out Of
the thirty-fve thousand dollars pro
vided for the qualification of the
river that twelve thousand dollars be
placed in a fund for building the hos
pital. This was met with an objection
from the finance committee.
The committee declared that it had
worded the provision for this appro-
priation in manner to eliminate any
pledging of the council to the build
ing of channel at Broad street and
that if this plan was found to be i'm
practicable that the money could be
used for the purposes of dredging
or for the installation of pumps to
flush the river.
Alderman Shearer, chairman of the
committee declared that if plans would
be worked out for the isolation hos
pital that the committee would recon-
mend the appropriating of money
from some of the city funds to pro-
vide for the work.
No appropriation was made for the
erection of new police station and
it was declared that this matter would
have to be taken up later and provi-
sion made for the building by bond
Issue or by some other arrangements
along the financial line.
The report of the committee showing
the distribution of the money raised by
taxation and of the estimated receipts
from other sources is as follows:

Council of the city of Kenosha, Wis

WOMEN FOR EvJUE.
Local w. G. T. U. Members Cannot
Praise Enough the Popular Leader
Of the Dry wisconsin Movement.


Kenosha women ere heart and soul
with Assemblyman William T. Eviue
of Madison, who will introduce the bill
for Dry Wisconsin in 1919,n said
Mrs. /. G. Barbour, president of the
local Women's Christian Temperance
Union and superintendent of temper
ance instruction of the Park Avenue
Methodist Church.
When the announcement was made
to the local W. G. 7. U. that a concert
ed move was to be made to get a dry
bill through the legislature this winter,
it was met with great enthusiasm.
The Kenosha union already has
money in its treasury that will be
used in aiding the work. The state
association is to support several lobby
lists in Madison during the time the bill
is in the legislature, and money will be
sent from the local union for that pur-
pose. The state w. G. I. U. will raise
eight thousand dollars for the purpose
of working for the bill and' although
Kenosha s union has not yet been mott
fed of its allotment, it will stand its
pro rata share of the amount beside
aiding in any other way it can.
'The union is unanimous in its de-
sire to further the work of getting the
bill through.
cit is interesting to note in this con-
fnection that at a recent meeting of the
T L IL L ~
of 176 pennants, every one from town,
village or county in Wisconsin, that has
gone dry. This means that 176 COM
munities in the state are already dry.
With this start it does not seem hard to
believe that bill may be gotten
through to put Wisconsin in the shining
list of the dry states of the union.'
