TO ELECT new DIRECTORS
Seven Vacancies on Directorate to Be
Filled by Election Stereopticon
Views to Supplement- Addresses on
Charity Work In Kenosha.

The annual meeting Of the Associated
Charities of Kenosha which is to be
held in Guild Hall tonight at eight
CLOCK, will be a revelation Of the
methods used in modern constructive
charity. 1t will be open to the public
and with an explanation of the de-
mands which the war will make on
organized charity, it is expected to
attract large attendance.
Red Cross activities in relieving the
distress of the dependents of soldiers
and the efforts of organized charity to
do the same with others in need of re-
lief will be discussed by several speak
ers and stereoptican slides will be
shown to illustrate what kind of charity
is most needed at the present time.
Miss Myra B. Van Nostrand, district
superintendent of the United Charities
of Chicago, will explain the distinction
between the work Of the Red Cross in
relieving civilian dependents of the
soldiers and that of organized charity
among the poor. In Chicago they have
already had experience in dealing with
the poverty that turks in the wake of
war and Miss Van Nostrand will bring
concrete examples of what Kenosha
may expect to do in the event of the
long continuance of the war. She is a
speaker of great force and has had
experience in dealing with the charity
question in Chicago so that her address
will have great weight.
Local leaders in Red Cross and
civilian work will further discuss the
cooperation which should exist be-
tween the Red Cross organization and
the Associated Charities. "United
Service will be the topic Of Major Ell.
y. Mellum, who will discuss the army
man g viewpoint ON civilian relief.
Alfred Terrell, chairman Of the Keno
sha County Red Cross Chapter, will
speak on the Red Gross VS.. Associated
Charities in which from the stand
point of leader in Red Cross work,
he will explain the difference between
the two fields of charity in Kenosha.
The meeting is expected to show that
there is need in this city of main
tanning at any cost both branches OF
the relief work.
In the business part of the meeting,
an election will be held to fill the seven
places now vacant on the directorate
of the Kenosha association. Reports
covering the year just closed will be
made by William H. Purnell, treasurer,
and by Miss Louise Cottrell, superin
tendent, of the Associated Charities.
The meeting will close with a number
Of stereoptican views of typical fami-
lies and homes aided by organized
charity. The meeting will present a
splendid resume of the work Of the
Kenosha Associated Charities and will
furnish a basis for the continuance of
the aid offered to families in the past
and which will be doubly needed in
this "war winter

1t has been decided to have house
warming at the Lincoln school on Sat
urday, the 10th day of November, this
occasion to be extended into the 18th,
for the benefit of those who are
busy on Saturday.
To be sure the building has been
kept pretty warm with the tread every
day since school opened of the feet of
over seven hundred children. But the
school board wants it warmed with the
presence of those who own it, whose tax
money paid for 1.-THE public of
Kenosha.
The building will be opened for in
spection from basement to second floor.
See the fine gymnasium, the first real
one in any public building in Kenosha.
See the shower bath facilities for boys
and girls; the excellent shop for boys
and the kitchen and sewing room for
girls. See the printing room with its
press and other equipment given by the
American Brass Company. See the
comfortable class rooms-twenty of
them-where an enrolment of seven
hundred and eighty-three children have
already this year found a chance to
receive the benefits of education. See
the heating and ventilating system so
essential to health and comfort.
Remember, Saturday afternoon, and
Sunday, November 10th and 18th, when
you will have an opportunity to
inspect the Lincoln school on Col
Inns and Pleasant streets.
Take an Elizabeth street car to
Pleasant and walk south, or Sheridan
Road car to Collins and walk west, or
take an automobile and walk across
the school yard.
This invitation is by order of the
Board of Education, through its presi-
dent, FL. o. Whitbeck.

NOTABLE BOOK ON EDUCATION.
Prof P. j. Zimmers Makes an Impor-
tant Contribution to the Litera-
ture of Pedagogy.

IuIe OF EeQagOgy.
Teaching Boys and Girls How to
Study is the title of book recently
published by P. j. Zimmers, now su-
perintendent of schools at Manitowoc,
but formerly at the head of the public
school system in Kenosha. The volume,
slender as it is, represents a real con-
tribution to the literature of pedagogy.
It is positive attempt to reduce hap
hazard methods of supervision to a
scientific encouragement of study along
lines that viii develop initiative and
accuracy. 1t emphasizes especially the
necessity for conservation Of time
and energy in school work. Protesting
against the theory that mentality is a
mere knowledge of facts it advocates
the development of intellect through a
stimulation of interest and cultiva-
ton of power. That the ideas ex-
pressed in the monograph are thor
oughly practical is proved by tabula-
ton of results secured in the Manito-
woo schools. These charts show an in.
creased efficiency for both teachers and
pupils and consequently justify the
principles set forth by Professor Zim-
mers in his scholarly dissertation on
teaching methods.

MEANS LIFE OR DEATH
Eminent Surgeon Shows That Treat
ment Of Wounded Men Is Important
Factor in Government Prom
Uses Gauze -Kenoshans Ready.

The most immediate need Of the
American Red Cross Association in
France is surgical dressings. This is
the information brought to the local
chapter by dispatches from Major
M. P. Murphy, head of the relief COM
mission at the front. The message
comes to Kenosha through Division
Headquarters in Chicago and asks for
immediate answer in the way of larger
and more frequent shipments of band
ages, made in accordance with the ex
plicit instructions issuing from ma
tional officials.
Major Murphy's message speaks for
itself. Tt reads:
''The Red Gross has direct RESPONSE
bility of supplying us with surgical
dressings, and nothing in the whole
situation here is equally important.
Red Cross standard dressings in mil
lions must be sent over with all posi-
BILE speed. IF this is not done and done
Immediately a serious calamity and
national disgrace is inevitable. The
American women who compose the Red
Cross Chapters should prepare with all
the enthusiasm and speed possible the
dressings which are going to mean life
or death to our own men. This whole
question deals with the most vital thing
that the women of America can do for
the soldiers in this war.
Supplementary letters from abroad
state that it is hard for us to appreci-
ate the great quantities of dressings
that are necessary in the treatment of
recently wounded men. To enable us
to visualize this need they inform us
that cases are numerous in which an
entire box of bandages is used on sin
gle patient. They state further that
there is every reason to believe that
fighting will continue throughout the
winter and that even greater carnage
will result at all points along the west
ern front.
The need is so great that Major Muir
ply asks for ten million meters of
gauze. Ii has developed that there
is scarcely more than third of that
quantity in the country, but the gov
eminent has taken measures to see that
the full amount will be provided. With
this assurance of materials the Red
Cross association has agreed to ship
over three million dressings a month
and thereby make possible more effec-
tive conservation Of man-power among
the troops Of the Allies.
Communications to the local chapter
ask not only for response but for i'm
mediate response They show to what
extent the italian situation has imperil-
ed the cause of liberty and urge COM
plete preparedness for any emergency.
They are frankly pessimistie about the
present danger but urge service of a
practical sort as the only successful an
tidote for the poison of Prussian vic
tory.
The Kenosha County Chapter is adj
mirably prepared to meet the new de-
mands Of the national association. The
surgical dressings room at headquarters
has been enlarged and re-equipped with
every necessity in order that more and
better work may be done in the maxi
mum of time. Mrs Arthur Fisher will
have charge of the new drive and is
now ready to supervise the service with
characteristic energy and efficiency.
