w. w. Storms, Racine, Is to
Head Board of Trustees of
Inter-County Teachers
Training School.
JUDGE RANDALL TREASURER

The board Of trustees of the new
Racine-Kenosha County Joint Training
School for Teachers was formally or
gained at a session held at Union
Grove on Thursday afternoon and
evening at which the members Of the
board of trustees met with the com
mittees representing the county boards
of the two counties and laid plans
for the future of the joint county
institution.
Attorney W. W. Storms of Racine,
was elected chairman of the board;
County Superintendent LaBudde of
Racine county, secretary, and Judge
Clifford E. Randall Of Kenosha,
county treasurer.
Other members of the board Of trus.
tees In attendance were Frank Row
bottom of Bristol; County Superinten-
dent R. L. Cundy of Salem; Attorney
George W. Waller of Burlington. The
Kenosha County Board was represent
ed by supervisors Scott, Barrows and
Dowse, and the Racine board by Super
visors Herzog and Pete sen.
After the formal organization of the
board the entire party went out and
viewed two sites for the school which
have been offered by the Union Grove
people and the Commercial Club OF
Union Grove was instructed to secure
options on these sites.
Plans and specifications for the new
buildings are to be secured at once
and it is the plan of the trustees tc
have the buildings ready for the re
ception of the full quota Of students
when the fail term opens in 1918. 1t is
expected that the new buildings vii
cost in the neighborood of $4,000
Appropriations have already been made
by the county boards to meet these
expenses as they are ordered By
the trustees. The trustees will have
full charge of the work.
| After the business meeting was over
| the members of the board of trustee:
and county boards were the guests Of
the Union Grove Commercial Club at {
dinner held at the hotel Richard
Dowse of Kenosha county, acted az
postmaster and short responses were
| made by the members of the of1cia
party and by Superintendent Smith Of
the training school and O. P. Graham
the well known Union Grove banker.
Union Grove is very proud of thu
fact that it has secured the location
of the joint county training schoo
and it IS thought probable that Z
site for the new institution will be of
= fered by the village.

Need Growing Daily


"This need is growing daily and to
meet it, it will be necessary for this
office to have on file the names of
thousands Of nurses who can respond to
call on short notice. In the course
of the next year it is estimated that at
least 10000 nurses will be required in
the army hospitals at home and abroad
should the war continue, therefore, the
applications Of all graduate nurses who
are professionally, physically, and NOR
ally qualified for service will be given
consideration by this office, certain of
the requirements being waived for the
period of the war emergency only.
Nurses will be appointed for three
years if they desire, or for the period
of the emergency.
application should be made direct
to the superintendent, Army Nurse
Corps, War Department, Mills Build
ing, Washington, D. G. It is hoped
that the nurses of the country will
show their patriotism by responding to
this call in large numbers.

need IS GROWING DAILY

Kenosha women who wear the white
apron Of the trained nurse and who are
anxious to aid in the great war Will
have an early opportunity, as Surgeon
General Gorgas has made an appeal to
the Wisconsin Society of Graduate
Nurses, the Kenosha Hospital, st. Cath
crime IS Hospital and the Kenosha Hos
pital Nurses Training School Alumnae
Association for women who are willing
to go to the field for service as nurses.
Kenosha has already sent a number of
nurses for services in this country and
for over seas service. The appeal for
further recruits is as follows:
"Please bring to the attention of the
graduate nurses of your school, asso-
citation, and nursing profession in gen.
eral, the great need Of the War Depart
ment for the services of nurses in the
various army hospitals in this country
and abroad as a result of the war. For
the proper care and preservation Of life
of sick and wounded soldiers in hos
pitfalls, skilled nursing, care, and atten-
ton is absolutely essential, and can
only be given properly by graduate
nurses. The men of America have so
nobly answered their country IS call that
it is believed the nurses would not be
less patriotic, but would come forward
to give their aid in the hospitals if
they but understood the urgent need.

UNTO THE LEAST OF THESE. J
Local Elks are Laying Plans to Bring
Christmas Cheer into the Homes
Of Unfortunate Kenoshans.

Christmas Cheer into the Homes
Of Unfortunate Kenoshans.
With charity typical of their order
the local lodge of Elks is making ar
rangelnents to exemplify tAe sterling
Christmas spirit expressed in the words
Of the Master when he said: mas
much as ye have done it unto one Of
the least of these, my brethren, ye
have done it unto Me-" Under the
direction of E. G. Alleman, chairman
Of the Christmas committee, they are
assembling funds with which to lend
aid and comfort to those needing it and
especially to little boys and girls to
whom the Yule-tide means SO much.
In their campaign for Christmas
cheer they are asking brothers and
friends to send to Mr.. Alleman the
names of families to whom Christmas
baskets should be sent, clothes, shoes,
underwear, stockings, and other ar
ticles of clothing that twill keep lit
tie people from shivering," and such
other Notwithstanding gifts and
money--as may be appropriately used
to engender a spirit of goodwill
toward men" in even the humblest
homes of Kenosha.
"Brother Elk" reads that part of
the appeal which, most perfectly ex-
presses its spirit, "won't you enlist
the folks of your home in this service
From our abundance of comfort and
happiness let Is give little more than
ever before--for surely the great big
world of people is more closely drawn
together right now, despite the tur-
MOL across the water, than ever before
in all the years that men have been
celebrating the birthday of the Christ. !"

general assembly as the national de-
Tense, has naturally been warmly es-
poused by the woman's committee"
stated Mrs. Inman, when interviewed
recently. o1 lriTo
Though to Coordinate the wo-
mems organization of the state, and
to get record Of the defense work
we are doing, is the first obligation
to the womanS defense, and we are
organizing rapidly in that direction,
we realize that the state council of
defense is verify a 'man's' Job, but
one in which the woman's division
can help and will help.
| Tho Bi..
THE measure passed by ,ne gen
eral ASSEMBLY," explained Mrs. In
man, has been carefully worked out
and is very similar to that which has
been enacted in many other states.
1t provides for a membership con-
sisting of sixteen, as follows:
The governor, the commissioner of
commerce and labor, the state sup
erintendent of schools, the commits
sioner of agriculture, the adjutant
general, eleven other members to be

One member of the gospel
A physician who shall represent
the medical profession.
One representative of the bankers
One representative of the railroads

What Women are DOING.
Under the Georgia division, or
ganized in June, there have been
chairmen of county units appointed
and accepted in two-thirds of the
counties of the state, and l am re-
ceiving news each day which indi-
Gates their interest and readiness to
work along any plan provided for
them," stated Mrs. Inman.
These chairmen have in nearly ev.
cry instance been appointed in the
county seat of the county, their title
being chairman of the county unit.
Where it is necessary, she has the
authority to appoint sub-chairmen,
who aid in getting records of the de.
tense work
THE chairmen of our county units
have co-operated directly with the
county agents of the College Of Ag-
riculture at the rallies they have held,
and there have been special sessions
devoted to canning, drying and brin-
ing.
"The Chatham county unit, Wo-
mans Council of Defense, has been
organized in the city of Savannah
under the direction of Mrs. William
L. Wilson. Their organization is one
of the largest and mots active in the
south, and aside from their gathering
of records and the fostering of the
war relief work, already being done,
they recently met to formulate plans
for economy in the trade market,
