LENT BEGINS ON FEBRUARY 81

Ash Wednesday, the first day of
Lent, falls this year on February 81,
and consequently Easter will come
on April 8th.
With the coming of Ash Wednesday
social activities will cease in large
measure, and throughout Lent there is
usually an exodus from Kenosha to
warmer climes, many seeking Califor-
MIA, Florida, Cuba or Bermuda and
spending there the chill weeks of late
winter and early spring.
For those who remain at home Lent
means an increase of time for devo-
ton, for philanthropy and charity, and
for catching up the many lost threads
of the busy weeks preceding it.
The observance of Lent begins with
services of especial significance in the
liturgical churches on Ash Wednesday.
In the Catholic churches the ashes are
blessed and put upon the foreheads of
the faitful, with the solemn reminder,
Remember, man, that thou art dust
and unto dust shalt thou return
The sprinkling with ashes has been
regarded as an act Of penance from
early times. David sprinkled ashes on
his bread, and throughout the Old
Testament one finds men doing penance
in sackcloth and ashes.

Chicago, Feb. -Four hundred and
forty-dve foreign-born residents of
Chicago dropped the hyphen out OF

1t was the busiest day in the history

Nearly every nation in the world was

GOVERNMENT TO PAY COST
Kenosha Represented at Big Meeting in
Kenosha--M Movement May Be Started
to Form Company Here in Next Few
Weeks 49, Camps for the Boys.

Impetus to the campaign to send a
large number of men from Wisconsin
to civilian training camps the coming
summer, was given Wednesday, when
Wharton Clay, Chicago, attached to the
central department of the United
States Army and member of the ex-
ecutive committee Of the Military
Training Camps Association, conferred
with members of the Milwaukee con-
tingent, Co. A, and committeeman from
other cities identified with the Wiscon-
sin division.
AT a meeting at the University Club
in Milwaukee, members of the Co. A,
Milwaukee, decided to put forth strong
er efforts to increase the membership
of Co. A, and it is probable that COM
panies will soon be organized in other
Wisconsin cities f. j. Baum, Keno
sha; George Krone, Madison; f. J. Del
chaft, Racine, members of local COM
mittees, pledged the support of their
respective cities to the campaign. Of
every 1000 population in their respec-
tive communities, they agreed to send
one man, at least, to a camp.
Mr. Clay said the government will
pay all travelling and subsistence ex-
penses and for uniforms of men attend
ing camps. He urged that, employers
be shown the necessity for military
training. Camps of four weeks each
will be held Fort Sheridan, ILL.,, July
2; Fort Smelling, Mimi, August Q; Fort
Riley, Kan, September 2. He urged
any desiring detailed information to
communicate with the association at
the federal building, Chicago, or with
r. E. butcher, chairman of the execu-
tive committee of the Milwaukee or
ganization. Early applications should
be made, he said
Intense interest is being shown in
universal military training,'' said Mr..
Clay. When the military training
camps were started two years ago,
$500 men participated. This year
there will be at least 10000. 1t will be
a great privilege to attend the camps.
The increase in health and vigor result
ing will add a year to anyone S life. .
Mr. Clay said that an opportunity
will be offered all Wisconsin BOYS to
attend boys military training camp
next summer. Camps of four weeks
each will be held near indianapolis.
Cheyenne, and probably Des Moines, in
charge of army officers. This innova-
ton follows camp held at Plum
Island, N. Y, when 1900 boys took
training last year. He said at least
10000 will attend Plum Island camp
this summer.

KENosHA NURSES PATRIOTIC.
Mrs Northway, Superintendent of the
Local Hospital, is Red Cross Nurse
and Will Go on Call.

Mrs. Millicent Northway, superin-
tendent of Kenosha Hospital is Red
Cross nurse, enlisted in the government
service in the Grand Rapids, Michigan,
chapter of the order, and liable to call
IN case our country goes to war.
Enlistment in the government Red
Cross nursing service is a difficult mat
ter and only the pick of the profession
are accepted. It takes six months from
the time an application for member
ship in the order is received before it
can be granted. During that time the
entire life of the nurse from her baby
hood is investigated Her educational
qualities must be good. Her health
must be vigorous. Morally she must
be without blemish. Her standing in
her community must be of the best.
Her professional ability must be of the
first order or her application is not
considered at all, and the most careful
and thorough means are used in ascer-
tanning all desired information regard
ing an applicant. Although six Keno
sha nurses have made application to
the order, none has, as yet, been ac-
cepted. However, the six months
necessary for their investigation has
not yet elapsed. AS all of these have
had the endorsement of Mrs. Northway
and others prominent in the medical
profession of the city it is probable
that they will be accepted when their
time is up.
The Red Cross service makes it OBJ
hgatory upon nurses to answer calls to
serve when the country is at war; and
to serve, if possible, when called upon
to go to the scene of disasters, as the
Dayton, Ohio, floods of a few years
ago, the mining riots and other events
where much professional nursing is
needed.
Every time Red Cross nurse thus
answers call to duty satisfactorily,
she is given an added bar for her Red
Cross pin and on the bar is the record
of the service performed. The number
Of bars is a matter of honor and every
true hearted member of the Red Cross
nursing corps eagerly seeks the oppor-
tunity Of adding another bar to her
pin.
