NO CARD SYSTEM NOW.
City Assessor Declares That Men are
Not Going to Make Their Per-
sonal Assessments.

City Assessor John w. Stevens saws
that there is no card system for personal
assessments in Kenosha now Relic of
1913, - was his comment on the matter
and he continued: Every personal as
sessment in Kenosha is now being made
by the assessor and T want it distinctly
understood that no cards are being left
with any one to write in the figures.
Every figure is made by the assessor
and there are lot of people in Kenosha
who have stocks Of goods who will not
know just how much they are assessed
until they visit the board of review and
find out The card system of assess
ing personal property, the system which
left the card with the merchant to fill
out was done away with in 1913 and
every assessment is now being made
after personal inspection by the asses
sor I wish you would let the people
know this so that they will have no idea
OF discrimination. Every one of them
is to be treated exactly the same. y

RUNNING NOSES DANGEROUS
TO CHILDREN.

Infantile paralysis, an epidemic of
which has been raging in New York, is
another of the diseases of childhood
which authorities in contagious diseases
state secure their entry through nose
and throat and are passed on to new
victims by the mucous discharge of
patients suffering from them. The list
is a long one, including nearly every
contagious disease of childhood.
Measles, mumps, scarlet fever, whoop-
ing cough sore throat, tonsilitis, pneu-
monia, grippe and common colds are
doubtless spread in this manner.
In the warnings concerning infantile
paralysis great emphasis is placed on
viewing every child who shows symp-
toms Of common cold,o during an
epidemic, with suspicion. This is espe-
cially important as it is now believed
that many infections with the germs of
lnfantile paralysis never go to paralysis
and that child, supposedly with moth
J. but common cold, may infect an
other child who may die or become
hopelessly crippled from this terrible
disease
Every parent and teacher should be
made to understand the possible danger
that lies In running noses - of child
hood. AS yet Wisconsin has escaped an
epidemic of infantile paralysis this
year, but it may come. The other dis
eases, however, we have in great num-
bers each year Our need of prevent
ing them is still greater than prevent
ing infantile paralysis, in spite Of pub
Gcity the latter disease is now receiv-
ing.
Every child with common cold,
who shows any signs of feverishness.
who acts Iistless, whose appetite is
poor, is a suspicious character and
should be excluded from the contact
with others. He should be put to bed.
for his own sake and for the sake of
other children, until his temperature is
normal And yet, one of the most in.
telligent school teachers / know. spur
red with the desire of good attendance
records and high scholarships, urged
her children not to stay out of school
for common colds" Until she and
her kind, and parents, generally, come
to have a better appreciation of the
relatively greater value of life and
health we shall continue to slaughter
and cripple our children by contagious
dlseases-infantile paralysis among the
others.

What are you doing with your
"wa5te paper" and how have you COM
piled with the request that went out
from Washington some time ago to save
all waste paper and rags9
The department of commerce, at
Washington, is daily receiving word
from paper mills all over the country
that people are sending in greater guam
titles of rags and paper, but even so,
Secretary Redfeld is not satisfied and
is getting out new bulletin on the sub
ject. He believes that there are still
too many American homes where these
two articles are wasted.
The plea that went out from Wash
ington, more than month ago urging
people to save their waste rags and
paper, did not make clear however how
people were to dispose of them and it
is this problem that the department is
now wrestling with. 1t is expected,
that in the near future, a general no
tice will 90 out from the department
telling people how to dispose of this
suddenly-valuable-w to advantage.
Chambers of commerce and boards of
trade are being asked to cooperate
with the secretary. The notice will adj
wise all who are saving rags and paper
to write to the nearest chamber of COM
merce and get the names Of the list Of
junk dealers, who will buy rags and
paper. Where there ere no civic bodies
the notice will advice the request being
sent to the bureau Of foreign and do
nestle commerce in Washington. This
bureau is busily engaged in compiling
a list of all the junk dealers in the
United States
Under the headline "What to Saven
the bulletin enumerates the following
materials:
Clean white cotton or linen rags,
clean unbleached cotton and linen rags,
scraps being just as suitable as large
pieces; cotton and linen dress goods;
soiled white rags, both new and used;
toweling, table damasks, cuttings from
fancy shirts; soiled and dirty rags ex-
cept the dark red and blue ones, in
Guiding old canvas, awnings and sail
cloth No light colored rags can be
too dirty to be used and black rags,
especially old black stockings should
be sure to be saved, while all wooden
rags are valuable
