WILL HOLD SHOW SEPT. q
Every Child of City Is Asked to Attend
and All Who Have Had Gardens
May Exhibit-Public and Parochial
Schools Are In It.

Should Kenosha not make its coming
generation a generation of gardeners,
it is not the fault of the public schools.
If the young men and women now of
school age turn the town into garden
spot in the coming fifteen years, the
public school will have been the lead
irg factor in the result
1t is doing all possible by means of
it's garden contests, conducted under
the supervision Of David r. Fogwell, to
stimulate interest in fruit, flower and
vegetable culture.
All summer long the youngsters have
been busily plying shovel and hoe and
now many of them nave valuable and
beautiful gardens on some little square
of earth which in other seasons has had
nothing more important upon it than
clover, dandelions or grass.
On Friday, September %, every one
of these child gardeners will have an
opportunity to show the world what he
has been doing with his plot of ground,
for every public school Of the city will
house garden show, at the Balm, Co
lumbus, Durkee, Frank, Weiskopf,
Lutheran and st. George schools the
Easements will be transformed into
miniature horticultural buildings and
the vacation work CT the children will
be exemplifed in the produce exhibited.
Judges have been chosen by the prin-
cipals Of each school to make awards
of first and second prizes in each class
shown. Glasses mentioned especially
are:
Flowers -Asters, dahlias, marigolds,
geraniums, institutions, cosmos, sun
flower, pansies, phlox, gladiole, carna-
tions, pinks, or other varieties.
Fruit-Apples, peaches, pears, grapes,
crabappies, plums, or any other variety
grown at home.
Vegetables -Beets, beals, corn, car
rats, cucumbers, late onions, tomatoes,
turnips, potatoes, cabbage, squash, win
ter lettuce and other home grown var
ieties.
1t is With considerable satisfaction
that those who attended last year IS
show find that the pet show is to be
omitted this year. The different ami
mails last year were in crowded quar-
tiers and most of them being unused to
such exhibitions showed themselves to

Mrs. Catherine Donley, through her
attorney, Robert Verne Baker, has
filed an action in the Circuit Court of
KeAosha county demanding an abso-
Lutte divorce from her husband, William
j. Donley.
The summons and complaint were
served on the defendant on Saturday
afternoon and when the facts in the
case became known they brought some
thing Of sensation. Mr.. and Mrs.
Donley are among the city's oldest and
most respected residents and few of
their friends had known that there
had been domestic trouble in the
household.
Mr.. and Mrs. Donley were married
in Kenosha nearly thirty-six years ago
and they have spent their entire mar
ried life in the city. Both husband and
wife have been prominent socially and
they have raised family of seven
children.
According to the complaint, Mr.. and
Mrs Donley separated on July 25th Of
this year and since that time Mrs.
Donley has spent much of her time
with daughter at Fond du Lac. She
alleges in her complaint that an effort
was made to have reconciliation, but
that it failed. The allegations of the
complaint indicate incompatibility. A
fomal charge OF cruelty is made in the
complaint by Mrs. Donley, but the
charge is not supported by any strong
specific evidence.
The complaint alleges that the de-
PENDANT has real estate valued at
$S,0O000-the homestead on Exchange
street-and that he has personal prop
erty to the value of more than fifty
thousand dollars Mrs. Donley asks
that her husband be restrained from
disposing of his estate until after the
evidence in the suit has been heard and
some final judgment handed down.
Mr.. and Mrs. Donley have seven chill
dren, all save one Of them have at
tanned their majority.
In her complaint Mrs Donley asks
for the custody of the one minor son,
Lawrence Donley, and f'such other or
der as the court may see fit. - AS vet
nc answer to the complaint has been
filed, but it is understood that Mr..
Donley will appear in court to present
his side of the domestic tragedy. The
case will probably be heard at the
next term of the Circuit Court.
