MAIL VOTING BLANKS HERE.
City and County Clerks Get Samples
and They Must Provide for the
Primary and Election.

Samples of the blanks and the en-
velopes to be used by voters who de-
sire to vote by mail were received by
the city and county clerks on Monday.
There is going to be a lot of red tape
in connection with this form of voting.
Not a single application to vote by
mail has been received by the city
clerk. Under the law the application
for mail ballot must be made at least
ten days before the election. The
clerk had no blanks to meet such a
demand had one been made but he
was saved from any embarrassment.
County Clerk Jones expected to secure
small supply of the blanks and other
equipment so that he will be ready to
furnish them for the regular election
IN April. 1t is expected that this new
frill in the law will demand an early
printing of the ballots as should de-
mand be made these must be furnish
ed to absent voters ten days before
the election is held

SAMMY SLAVIC rs PARoLED.
Thirteen Year Old Boy is Placed in
Charge of an Uncle Pending
Good Behavior.

Sammy Slavic, the, thirteen year old
boy who confessed that he had en-
tered the New York meat market last
Thursday night, wept briny tears in
the municipal court again on Monday
afternoon, but this time they were
tears of joy as Judge Randall, after
the boy had pleaded guilty to
charges of burglary in the night time,
decided that thirteen year old boy
was pretty small to send to any of the
state penal institutions Sammy beg
ged hard to remain in Kenosha and his
uncle, John Velas, told the court that
he would undertake the reform of the
youngster. Judge Randall issued a
formal order paroling Sammy to his
uncle, with the understanding that
regular monthly reports of his progress
on the road to reform will be made to
the court. Sammy insisted that he
was going to make it real reform
this time.

GUM CHEWING IS WAsTEFUL

sThrift is the elimination of waste, -
was the epigram which b. T. O'Brien
launched as the text of his interesting
talk ON "Thrift'' before the Parent
Teacher association of the High school
Monday night.
Mr.. O'Brien is encouraged as to the
growth Of thrift among Americans. 1t
has increased measurably in the few
years since he first began observing
such matters.
AS an instance of this he told of the
timber lords innorthern Wisconsin who
today waste nothing of the trees they
fell. In his boyhood, sawdust piles lay
and rotted, small timber was ruthlessly
hewn instead Of being allowed to stand
until of such size as make it's cutting
economical Branches hewn from the
tree s trunk were made into piles that
were burned. Now every scrap is saved
and converted to some use. He said
farmers are conducting their farms more
economically, practicing scientific meth
DDS with the result that a given farm
and equipment are made to produce
more than heretofore.
He called the attention of parents to
the large amount of money that is spent
every noon and recess at the confec-
tionery store or grocery near the school
house for materials of no nutritive
value to the child He spoke especially
Of gum. He said if one looked through
a room in the High school and saw two
thirds of the children chewing gum,
that that person would have to admit
lack of training in thrift by the parents
of those children. He said that chill
dren should be taught to be economical
with everything and that saving in
pencils and papers and other school ma
terials were ways in which thrift could
be taught.
Mr.. O'Brien is of the opinion that
the n. E. A. has done much to increase
general thrift in school room manage
ment
MRS. James Cavanagh, who presided
at the meeting, gave an outline of the
work being accomplished by the indi-
vidual p T. A. associations which she
said would be impossible without the
background and publicity that the state
organization and the national organiza-
ton with which they are allied, furnish
She then made an appeal for funds to
be used in the support of these organi-
cations and Of the local one.
At business meeting preceding the
talks the following delegates to the
state conference of the Wisconsin Con
gress of Mothers to be held in Madison
April 1928, were chosen: Mrs. Cava-
nagh is delegate ex-officio and her alter
nate is Miss Lillian Evans, Mrs. Henry
DeBerge, first delegate, alternate, Mrs.
Frank Nelson; Mrs. Thomas Barden,
second delegate, alternate, Mrs. William
Vincent; Mrs. Charles Hastings, third
delegate, alternate, Miss La Maude
Yule.

INVESTORS GET MONEY BACK.
Real Estate Men Who Sold Lots in
Michigan Settle With Keno
shans and are Released.

Kenosha people are not going to
buy cheap lots in Michigan. Seven
teen of them who had started on the
way to become taxpayers were congre
gated at the Office of the district at
torney on Monday night and they
slipped out from under the RESPONSE
bility of being taxpayers when III. H.
Hart and II. Fl. Randall, two Chicago
men who had been disposing of the
cheap Michigan lots in Kenosha, made
an offer to pay back every cent Of
money they had collected In most of
the cases the amount was in the neigh.
borhood of $1.60. One man who had a
deed all ready for recording, had near
~ seven dollars coming AS refund
A Mrs. Snyder of Chicago, who adj
mitted that she was the owner of the
property. came to Kenosha and she
warmly defended the dealings of Hart
and Randall She declared that the
lots were being disposed of in this
manner all over the country. The
woman declared that she did not want
any trouble and rather than have any
she would pay back all the money.
No formal charge had been made
against her two agents and they were
promptly released after the payments
We're made.

PEOPLE MUST PROVIDE CANS
Two Receptacles Will Be Demanded
Under the Ordinance and Every Prop
erty Owner Must Comply Semi
Weekly Collections Decided Upon.

The special committee of the COM
mon council in charge of working out
the plans for municipal collection and
disposal of garbage met on Monday
night at the council chamber. The
work for the committee was the fran
ing Of the ordinance to provide for the
municipal collection Of garbage. The
ordinance will be reported to the coun-
Gil at the meeting on next Monday
evening and while it is modelled after
the ordinance now in force in Racine
the local aldermen have sought to
make improvements on it.
No distinction will be made between
the business and the resident districts
Ct the city. Several of the members
of the committee were of the opinion
that there would be a demand for
more frequent collections in the bust
ness district, but the committee as a
whole held that every citizen in the
town was entitled to the same treat
ment and for this reason no distinc-
tion was made between business and
residence districts.
Under the provisions of the ordi-
nance it will be necessary for the
property owners to provide garbage
cans. Two receptacles will be re-
CURED and the property owner must
separate garbage and ashes. One re-
ceptaele will be for garbage, bottles,
cans and other refuse from the house
while the other must be for ashes.
The committee may decide later to use
the ashes for filing in the alleys about
the city. The committee will make no
provision for the removal of the ashes
from Easements of buildings and
this must be taken care of by the
property owners.
Today the committee is advertising
for the purchase Of four wagons to be
used for the collection Of garbage and
ashes and the city will furnish these
wagons to the men who may get the
contract for the work.
While it had been planned to start
the actual collection on the first day
of April this has been found impossi-
BILE. Alderman Shearer, chairman of
the committee, declared this morning
that he was hopeful that the work
could be started about the 18th
Of April.
1t is expected that the companies
row in the garbage business in the city
will seek to dispose Of cans to the
property owners and it is thought that
in this manner the cans may be Sc
cured at very low cost. It is esti-
mated that it will require no less than
four. thousand sets of receptacles
to take care of the business in the
entire city.
Just as soon as the ordinance has
been passed and the wagons purchas-
ed some formal proclamation will be
made to the people in which the system
for collection will be fully explained.

Automobile Operated by Henry La
Parr Runs Into Horse of Barney
Smith on Monday Night.

Another accident was added to the
list Of indictments against the jitney
buss just after ten O'Clock Monday
night when the buss of Henry LaParr
ran into horse and buggy owned by
Barney Smith at the corner of Chicago
street and Prairie avenue. LaParr
told the police that the jitney was not
to blame for this<accident on account
OF the fact that the horse got right in
front of the automobile Smith was
insistent that the automobile ran into
the horse. The damage resulting was
not large. Neither Smith nor his COM
panions in the buggy were injured and
the jitney got away with a broken
lamp.

The members Of the Kenosha County

ing of the members of the Kenosha

been urged to become candidate for
said office; and,
Whereas, During his service Of four
teen years as presiding judge of the
First Judicial Circuit of Wisconsin he
has shown himself to be a capable,
conscientious, fearless and impartial
judge, before whom all litigants re-
ceived the same fair, kind and courte-
Gus treatment, and has shown himself
to be from judicial temperament,
qualifications and experience particu-
larly fitted for said judgeship;
Now, Therefore, We, the members
of the Kenosha County Bar, while re-
GREETING that this circuit would there
by be deprived Of the service of a
most able judge, but feeling that the
state at large would be benefited
thereby, and that, if elected, he would
make an able member Of the Supreme
Court, do heartily endorse Judge
Belden's candidacy for the Office of
Associate Justice of the Supreme
Court, and do hereby pledge our best
efforts to secure his election.o

WAR AFFECTS Pipe PRICES
Big Main To Be Laid on Washington
Street and Middle Street to Take Care
Of West Side But People in the
New Territory Must Wait.

The board Of water commissioners
at it's meeting on Monday night di-
rected the superintendent to advertise
for pipe for the rebuilding of the pipe
system Of the company and it is ex-
peeted that this expenditure will be
pretty close to fifty thousand dollars.
A portion Of this expenditure is pro.
.vided for in the general plan for the
new water plant and other parts of it
will be provided for in the mainten-
ance budget of the water company.
Tt is not planned to relay the pipe
system at this time and nearly all of
the mains now In use will be used af-
ter the completion of the new pumping
station on Washington Island. Sew
eral large mains mist be built in order
to provide proper connections with the
present city mains. One twenty-four
inch main will be laid under the har-
Dor and along Lake street to connect
with the main feed pipe at the corner
of Lake street and Market.
In order to make some provision to
supply water to the great territory on
the west and southwest side of the
city main will be laid on Washington
street to Middle street and then west
On Middle street to Ridge street. This
will be a twentyfour inch main and it
will go under the river near the bridge
on Middle street. While this main
will go long ways toward providing
for water service to people in the big
territory on the west side of the city
the board is making no plans for ex-
tensions to the west of the Chicago
and Milwaukee tracks until after the
new plant is completed Funds for such
extensions will not be available this
year but the members of the board
hope that such funds will be available
next season. The people in this large
territory have not been insisting on
4he extension Of water mains, but
n any of them have signifed a will
ingness to become customers of the city
just as soon as the mains were extend
ed AS there is considerable terri
tory to be served it is expected that
the board will make the extensions
just as soon as possible.
The price of pipe has advanced some
seven dollars a ton since last year and
for this reason the members Of the
board are anxious to get in their bids
before there are further advances in
the price. Had this pipe been bought
year ago the cost of the pipe could
have been reduced not less than
twenty-five per cent.
The only other business to come be-
fore the board was the moving of the
old poor house on Washington Island.
This historic old building is to be
moved out of the way to make room
for the pumping station. It will how
ever, be moved only a few hundred
feet from it's present location and the
water board has agreed to see to it
that it is fixed up in better condition
than it is now. Bruins brothers have
been given the contract for moving
the old house.
