Sherman Fortress of the
Daughters of G. A. R. VIII
Give Regulation Stand
ard to Local Company.
PRESENTATION At BALL

The members of the Sherman Fortress
of the Daughters of the G. A R. at
their regular meeting Tuesday evening
decided to present the local infantry
company of the Wisconsin National
Guard with a magnificent silk flag eff
regulation size to show in part their
appreciation of the sacrifice and pa
triotism shown by the members of the
company. The presentation will be
made part of the military ball, which
is to be given Thursday night at the
Eagles Hall for the benefit Of the Off
GERS of the company.
The Daughters of the G. A. R. havej
planned to attend the dance en- masse,
where Mrs. Cora Lane viii present the
banner to the company after which
Captain Dayton will make short speech
of acceptance. Miss Mildred Cook,
past officer Of the Sherman Fortress,
has been selected to carry the silk
'Stars and Stripes, and will be assist
ed by Mrs. Mary McGill, Mrs. Elma
Wade, Mrs. Maud Garvelink and Mrs.
May Walkup as the color bearers. The
flag which the local auxiliary has pre-
scented to the company is one which the
company will well be proud to follow
and "old'Glory' in its brightest shades
is sure to lead them to glory and honor
for their country.
The reports of the dance for Thurs
day night are all encouraging. Many
soldiers in uniform from out of town
have promised to be present as well as
the marine officials who are making
Kenosha recruiting headquarters this
week, so that the uniforms will give
the dance a touch of romance. The
tickets may be procured at the door If
not secured from the members Of the
company today or Thursday.

BONDS or BONDAGE
Speaker Shows Seriousness of the Stu
alton Now Confronting the United
States in Raising funds for the
Prosecution of the War.

The Rhode opera house was the scene
OF q patriotic demonstration Saturday
night when the management introduced
an unannounced act, featuring Chester
ID. Barnes in the role of an orator urg-
ing more general purchase of the gov
eminent S liberty loan bonds. AS the
Pathe Weekly was showing the defeat
ed but unconquered Belgian army bat
thing for the fragment of its fatherland
which still remains to it, the pictures
were suddenly replaced by a placard
which read: Buy liberty loan bond
ard do your bit for country and hui
manity." With his stage thus admir-
ably set Mr.. Barnes made his appear
ance from the wings and presented a
dramatic appeal for American bonds
instead of German bondage.
The speaker said in part: "The pur-
chase of liberty bond is not only a
commendable patriotic act but also a
good personal investment. The bond
which is bought is an I owe you from
the United States of America, a ma
ton whose credit is unlimited and whose
security is unquestioned. It bears in
terest at the rate of three and one-half
per cent and can be sold at any time
for the purchase price or more as was
the case with the bonds issued by the
government at the time Of the Spanish
American war. It's purchase now may
mean an early victory for the United
States and its allies and SO prevent the
levy of direct tax which might reach
rate of one hundred per cent or even
Prusslan conquest which would mean
virtual slavery for all American citi-
zens. In the light Of this grave danger
every man, woman, and child in this
city should contribute something to the
support Of the government s financial
plan and the liberty loan affords the
most direct method by which this SER
vice can be rendered. The bonds range
in denomination from fifty dollars to
hundred thousand and may be purchased
from the local banks at any time be-
tween now and Friday. Since payment
may be made either at once or on the
iRstallment plan there is no reason why
anyone should hesitate to discharge his
or her patriotic obligation and so do
something worth while in the cause of
freedom and democracy. 1t is to be
hoped that Kenosha will do her part in
the tremendous task of supplying funds
for the prosecution of war which must
and will end in a glorious victory for
our own United States
The prolonged applause which follow
ed Mr.. Barnes address indicated not
only approval of his remarks but also
an intention to act on his suggestions
and it is confidently expected that Ke-
nosha IS "bit" of the liberty loan will
be materially increased during the com
ing week. Mr.. Barnes also spoke at
other theatres in the city and a number
of similar addresses will be given in
various places between now and Friday,
the day set for the end of the liberty
loan campaign.

A. F. F. w. ROOMS INSPIRING
New Quarters of Relief Association
Prove Attractive to Tuesdays
Corps Of Volunteers.

The women who Tuesday afternoon
volunteered their services at the new
A. F. F. w. rooms in Guild Hall, found
themselves transported temporarily in
to an atmosphere of wartime romance
and wartime suffering by a series OF
striking posters which adorn the walls
and present vivid portrayal of the
crowded life of the "poilu" at the
front. The pictures have been secured
after long negotiation with the New
York branch of the association and are
reproductions of sketches made under
fire by famous artists now serving in the
French army. They bear such inspir-
ing captions as "Vive Ia France" and
con les aura'' and are fac-similes of
the placards used in France to encour-
age recruiting. The posters were de-
signed by masters of no less note than
C. L. Andre, Maurice Leumon and Pierre
Steinlen, and were with difficulty pro-
cured for the local headquarters
through the personal efforts of Mrs. z.
G. Simmons, chairman Of the work
committee in the Kenosha auxiliary.
That these presentations of the joys
and sorrows of the French soldier had
had their effect was evidenced by the
general business-like air which char
acterized the work of the women as
they prepared surgical dressings,
vermin-proof pajamas, mufflers and
wristlets, intended to relieve the suf-
fering and increase the comfort Of
these same "poilus."

DEATH OF WILLIAM L. MARSH.
Pioneer Settler of Bristol in This Coun
ty Died Recently at His Home al
Eau Claire.


Letters received in Kenosha an
nounce the death of William Z. Marsh,
one of the early pioneer residents of
the town of Bristol, which occurred on
Wednesday, June s, at Eau Claire, Wis.
William Il. Marsh was born in Que
chez, VT, October 8, 1928. He came
to Wisconsin in 1885, settling at Bris-
tol, Kenosha county. For more than
sixty years he lived and worked for
the state whose growth he watched
with keen interest. To this western
home he brought his bride, Ellen Fow-
Ter, in 1857. Here, too, he united in
the same year with the pioneer Congre-
gational Church of Bristol. He was
closely associated with the progress
and development of this church and his
deep interest in its welfare has con-
tinued throughout his life.
His life has been pioneering in the
finest sense of the term-in the world
of thought as well as in the realm of
nature, which he loved The generous
strength and service which first found
expression during the rigors of the
early days have run through every
phase Of his life.
He removed from Bristol to Eau
Claire in 1906
Mr. Marsh is survived by his widow,
one sister, Mrs. Fowler of Oberlin, O.,
and by three daughters, Mrs. Marion
Jones, Miss Ellen F. Marsh and Miss
Jeanette E. Marsh.
The funeral was held at the residence
IN Eau Claire Saturday afternoon; the
Rev. John ". Nelson conducted the
services. The remains were laid at
rest in the cemetery at Eau Claire.

solos Of Miss Elsie May Cox elected
much applause. All numbers of the

already set by the former concerts
