SAVING THE CHILDREN.

There's fine lesson for parents in bulletin ju. issued by the New York health department
 Do you know" asks the bulletin "why, despite u inantie paralysis, and despite the hot weather few babies have died in New York City this year than previous years? And then the bulletin proceeds to swer it's question:
 Because mothers have watched their babi. with greater
 Because homes have been kept cleaner.
 Because flies have been swatted, starved ar ptisned.
 Because babys milk has been kept clean and cold
 Because the doctor has been called in time"
 It's safe say that the infant mortality this summ in the big majority of American cities has been lower by the same intelligent process And the saving of s more child lives and child suffering will be effected summers to by practising these simple metho' even assduously

ANNUAL REPORT oF HOSPITAL.
Report Shows That More Than 1850
Patients Were Taken Care of
During the Past Year.

Some very interesting statistics are
presented in the annual report Of the
Kenosha Hospital association for the
year 1915, which has just been made
public and the figures show thai.
hospital is performing great service
to the community During the twelve
months total Of 1856 patients were
received at the hospital Of these $40
were males and GIG females. There
were 829 operations during the year.
1t is interesting to note that there
were 139 births at the hospital and
the children born there are nearly
all alive at the end of the first year
of their life. The total earnings Of
the hospital for the year was $40, 490.55
and the total expenses 500, 930.65. This
leaves a deficit of S2,44010 which must
be provided for by the officials Of the
association. Much charitable work
was done by the hospital during the
year and free service was furnished
to the amount of $648.12. To this
amount must be added the sum of $500
which is left in very doubtful accounts
on the books of the institution. The
directors hold that while the year was
not financially a successful one that it
was one of the best years in the his
tory of the popular Kenosha institution.

year. This year an effort is being
made to get at least twenty-five Keno
sha boys for the camp. Registrations
must be filed before June 18th if the
boys want to get in for the bargain
registration fee of half a dollar At
ter that time the fee is going to be
raised. 1t is going to cost five dollars
a week for life at the camp this year
and it is expected that at least thirty
five of the Kenosha boys will be on
hand to have part in the fun.
Just because Kenosha has no Y. M.

do not want the boys here to think that
they are barred from the pleasures of
the summer camp at Phantom Lake.
We want all the Kenosha boys we can
get to 60 to the camp this summer and
we are going to make them welcome
all the time. The camp is better than
ever before this year and we want the

Townley spoke at the high school on

Bob Townley of Milwaukee, a big
boy himself and one of the bic BOYS
connected with the Milwaukee Y. M.
G. A., has come to Kenosha to organize
boys of Kenosha for the summer camp
at Phantom Lake. People who live in
the south part of town saw TownIey
headed south Tuesday evening and fol
lowing him was between twenty and
thirty high school boys. They carried
their lunch boxes and baskets and they
were bound south for hike along the
lake shore. They came back home
when it got dark, but Townley was
busy teaching them some of the de-
lights that they. are going to have
when they go over to the Y NJ. G. A.
camp for boys. Kenosha has no Y. M.
G. A. now. There is an organization
here but it is inactive. On account of
this fact Townley, has been sent to
Kenosha from Milwaukee to aid the
local boosters in working up interest
in the Z. NJ. G. A. camp.
Time was when the Kenosha bows
were the busiest band of boys at the
state camp, but in recent years the

that there will be short addresses by
many prominent bankers of the two
counties. Every bank in the two coun-
ties will be represented and most Of
the banks will send their entire work
ing forces.

DIED VERY SUDDENLY.
Alexander Mockus of Chicago Died
Suddenly at the Kenosha Hospi-
tai Tuesday Afternoon.

Alexander Mockus, aged about
thirty five years and resident of Chi
cago, died at the Kenosha hospital on
Tuesday afternoon, an hour after he
had been taken to the hospital as a
county charge. The man was in a
west side boarding house suffering
from combination of heart disease
and Bright's disease. He had been in
Kenosha less than three months and
so far as can be learned he has no rela-
tives in the city. His condition was
such that physicians notified the
county agent and asked that he be
taken to the hospital, The deceased
formerly had brother in Kenosha.
but he left the city some time ago and
it is declared that he has not advised
any of his friends of his present
whereabouts. 1t is probable that the
body of Mockus will be sent to the
Madison laboratory, but before this
step is taken County Clerk Jones will
seek further to locate his relatives

THROWN FROM THEIR BEDS.
lightning Plays Franks With Wen
Known Bond Street People at
an Early Hour This Morning.

People living on the south end Of
Bond street did not need an alarm
clock to get them up early this morn
ing. A half a score of them were
thrown from their beds and badly
frightened by discharge of lightning
just after four clock. It splintered
a tree in front of the residence Of John
Wight at 617 Bond street and all the
members of the Wight family were
thrown from their beds. Fire Chief
Henry Isermann lives in the house ad-
joining the Wight home and he also
made an exit from bed in rather I'M
dignifed fashion and aided in pick
ing up the members Of the Isermann
family from the floor. None of the
people were injured as a result of the
lightning, but the lightning rod dis
penser could do some profitable bust
ness down in the Bond street neigh
borhood this afternoon. The electric
storm was one of the worst known in
the city in years, but the spliRterea
tree on Bond street and the fritz
the people living in the neighb.
were the only reports sent to
department. A lot of water f
ing the early morning, but NJ

SHORT NEWS BULLETINS.

st. Louis, June II With Flag
Day as an inspiration and with
slogan Of "Peace and Patriotism
the Democratic national convention
opened its sessions at noon today.
It was the twenty second national
convention Of the party and the
attendance was the smallest known
in years. 1t is regarded by most
Democrats as little more than
ratification meeting. Before the
gavel of the temporary chair
man, National Chairman William
f. Combs, called the convention to
order, it was settled that Woodrow
Wilson would be nominated for
president. The boom of Roger
Sullivan of Illinois for vice presi-
dent, had been fattened out and
it was certain that Thomas R.
Marshall of Indiana, would be
nominated for vice president. The
only thing that brought any inter
est was the question of the plat
form. It is to be a hand picked"
platform made by President Will
son and there will be little obiec-
ticn to the plans proposed by
him on the floor of the convention.
It was a case of Wilsonizing De-
mocracy from start to finish and
there was not sign Of a ripple
on the placid surface of the waters
with the opening of the convention.
Even William Jennings Bryan
sent out a message early today
that he had no prohibition or peace
plank to suggest and with this he
sent a declaration that he was for
Wilson first last and all time.
The Wisconsin delegation reached
st. Louis on Tuesday night. They
had an escort of a band to their
hotel and Senator Husting prom
Uses to be one of the ssbig men,
of the convention. Martin Glynn
of New York, made the keynote
speech this afternoon and then an
adjournment was taken to allow
the credential and resolutions
committees to make their reports.
There will be nominations prob
ably at the afternoon session on
Thursday and it is believed that
the convention will reach an adj
journment on Thursday night.
