DR.. WRIGHT ON THE JOB.
New Health Commissioner spends First
Day Studying Work Being Done
In the Schools of the Gitv.

Dr. Harold L. Wright, Kenosha s
new health commissioner, came to his
Office on Monday afternoon and took
charge and this morning he dove right
into the work of the department by
making visits to the various schools of
the city and looking after health in
spections. DR.. Wright has not had
time to get things Strengthened around
as yet and it will probably be another
week before he gets the work of the
Office recognized to meet the demands
Of his program. This morning he had
q real problem facing him in the fact
that there were tWenty-six new cases
Of measles reported to the department
on Monday. He is going after the
measles situation this afternoon and
hopes to be able to do something to
Sop the spread of the disease. Dr.
Wright has made an excellent impress
sion on the officials with whom he has
come in contact and they predict for
him a successful career in the health

would be very wicked and dangerous
thing-it takes bro a moment $ rehec-
tion to see that in practice it would be
the most disastrous thing ever attempt
ed
Suppose a quarrel with q first class
|power and relations broken off. No
state of war exists. None can exist,
let us suppose, until it is declared by
this country. The other country under
stands the situation and acts accord
ingly. Though avoiding any actual in
yasion, it mobilizes its army, puts its
squadrons on the sea, disposes its naval
forces for quick assault on our ports
seacoast, prepares for a blockade Of our
coast, and makes all its preparations
for an immediate attack.
But instead of preparing TO repel
such an attack we. go into politics. We.
hold mass meetings. We give the
friends of that country, if there are
such among US, an opportunity to form
plots and poison public sentiment. We
agitate, argue, quarrel among ourselves
and finally vote.
If any real cause cf war existed the
people would vote in the affirmative.
The announcement of their vote would
be accepted by the hostile country as
declaration of war. 1t would be
ready to strike and it would strike.
Our own unfortunate country would
have to begin at the bottom and build
up its military organization IF the
vote were negative, it would be equiva-.
lent to the acceptance of the demands
Of the other nation. Our own would
have suffered a bloodless but humiliat-
ing defeat.
1t is difficult to conceive case in
which such a referendum would result
IN benefit to the United States.
No nation would long endure which
tried to maintain its place in the world
handicapped by such Iaw.-Wausau

THE (p[nN)(p[l
PLEA FOR CHILDREN.

Spring time is here. I wonder low
many men and women ever stop to
think of the hundreds and hundreds of
boys and girls who never see a bit of
green grass or flowers and birds. How
many beautiful homes, and many Of
them childless, and oh, how easy it
would be for some of them to just
take in some poor little Waif and give
it an outing for a week or two. IF
some of them would but try It'll they "a
be anxiously awaiting next summer to
try it again.
Oh, how it makes one rejoice Just
to see how happy he has made some
one else
am talking from experience, for I
asked the Salvation Army people to
yet me a couple of little girls and I I'll
never forget the happiness those two
girls had out of their visit. They had
never been on train-never been in
a woods to pick fowers-never in wad-
ing nor had ever seen cow or a squir-
rel or rabbit. So they found something
new every day. They were two sis
tiers, one of IA years and one Of nine.
Their father was a cripple, and their
mother went working every day. /
taught them to sew, bake bread and
cake and crochet and they learned very
easily.
We were so well pleased with them
that we expect to have them again this
summer.
| And so / wonder when some of US
hear the birds singing and see the flows
ers in bloom why couldn't we just
snatch a week or two out of our happy
summertime to make a few Others
happy? The joy isn't one-sided for |
think I had the greatest joy and bless
ing out of it all.

This society will include almost

the tenets of the order.
The password is expected to be
stinkpot, a word to be found in

to have had its origin in a strange bomb

Chinese pirates used in their raids on
the China Sea. The word was first ap-

of pipes are to be found on the walls.
