Last Sunday the Damar base ball
team played our boys on the fair
grounds diamond. The game was de-
layed about an hour on account of
the Wa-Keeney pitcher who had gone
to Fort Riley to be examined for the
army, but he failed to make connec-
lions and our boys were forced to put
Milt Warner in the box. The game
was one of the best of the season and
was Damar's up to the seventh in
ming the score was 1 to O Our boys
jumped onto Damar's pitcher in the
first half of the eighth inning and with
the bases full and only one man out
the umpire called man safe at home
and Damar refused to proceed with
the game. The Damar pitcher was
imported from Ottawa. Kan, and
thought he had walkaway, but found
our boys were some batters and as he
had a reputation at stake he quit the
game. Milt Warner, although out

The Secretary of the State Editor
ial Association of Portland, Oregon,
informs US that Oregon's effort to do
her part in the building of steel and
wooden ships for the war is seriously
crippled through lack of labor.
Latest authentic information gath
cred points to the necessity of employ
ing at once nearly 10000 men in the
shipbuilding business at Portland, and
between two and three thousand in the
yards outside.
With contracts already let and GER
tain to be placed in the near future,
it is stated by the shipbuilders that
from 10000 to $4,000 men should be
employed by the close of this year,
or early next year. The work is on
hand to give this empl yneha and the
demand for ships is growing greater
every day.
The development of an industry of
this magnitude so< suddenly has re-
suited IN drawing practically all of the
available men within immediate reach
and already the ship builders of the
state are urging laborers from all
parts of the West to take positions
in their plants.
Appeals are coming from national
officials and all the leading business
men of the east for all seaboard states
to concentrate their supreme energies
upon the program of ship building.
This is declared to be. the greatest
duty confronting the nation today and
4
despite the optimistic statements
made of the position of the allied
forces, that unless ships are built by
America at a pace absolutely beyond
the present program the effectiveness
of the United States in the European
War will be largely reduced. Germany
is counting implicitly upon destroy
ing more ships than are built to pre-
vent America from participating ex-
tensive1y in the war. The submarine
program is making more rapid pro-
gress than the ship building program.
For these reasons the federal govern
ment is putting the building of ships
as the primary patriotic duty of the
people of the country, and urging
every person who can aid in the work
to take it up with as much reverence
and as much sense of duty as if they
were enlisting in the army.
Americas food, munitions, arms,
and men cannot reach Europe without
an adequate supply of ships Best
authorities declare these should be
built of steel and wood as rapidly as
the forces of the country can be mar
| shalled for the work
In the emergency every man who
has any mechanical or artisan skin

DIRTY GAS COMPLAINTS.

Adding to the diseomforts of the
cold winter season is a bunch of
dirty gas being supplied through the
mains of the Wisconsin Gas and
Electric Company and many people
have been complaining bitterly on
account of the nauseating odor of
the gas. The condition has prevailed
for a week and it is claimed that it
is due to lack Of proper publication
of the gas. At the office of the
company it was declared that the
condition was unavoidable but that
the men in charge of the gas plant
were hopeful that repairs could be
made so that by tomorrow the gas
would be purified Many people use
gas for heating purposes and these
people claim that they have been all
but driven out of their rooms by the
odor.

The way Kenosha county does bust
ness and the antiquity of its bookkeep-
ing system is severely criticised in the
annual report of Auditor Charles Winke
which was presented to the county board
this morning. The auditor after his
examination of the records of the vari-
GUS departments of the county did not
locate any crookedness but he gives
two pages of the audit to pointing out
the faults of the officials. At that
nearly all of the officials are given a
clean bill of health and their records
were found to be in excellent condition.
The auditor, however, strongly urged
the Capitalization of records for pay
ments in the office of the county clerk
holding that check on all payments
made by the county should be retained
in this office in order to make it easy
for the official to keep better and
closer check on moneys received and
paid out. He called attention to the
fact that the county treasurers of Keno
sha county had not collected income
taxes which were returned as delin-
quent. The report last year showed q
delinquent list amounting to 1910 of
which $10623 was collected and this
year the report showed a delinquent list
of $2,250.08 of which $237.65 was col
lected. The auditor declared that it
was the duty of the proper supervising
officers of the county to see to it that
income taxes were collected and he
showed that the state laws gave the
treasurer and other county officials full
power to act in the courts if necessary
to collect this tax. The suggestions of
the auditor will be brought prominently
to the notice of County Treasurer Blair
and he will be instructed to go the limit
j. the collection of these taxes.
Dual payment Of orders was shown
in number of cases and it was shown
that officials who had contracts with
the county to work ON a salary had
made claims for, considerable amounts
in the way Of fees Kenosha county
is now working under what is known
as the "salary system" and it is ex-
pected that the officials Will accept the
salary contracted for as full payment
for their services. At present many
bills are in the hands of the board for
services which the auditor claims are
fully covered by the salary agreement.
This has been a matter of interest to
members of the county board for a
number of years but in nearly every
case where the matter has been consid-
|ered the Board has failed to take action
to bring the matter to an issue. The
is3ussion of the audit took up much
of the sessions Of the board today.
At the morning session a resolution
on the death of the late Evan Powell,
long a member of the board, was pre-
scented and written into the minutes.
At the session this afternoon the
board is scheduled to take up the mat
ter of naming legislative committee to
look after the interests of the county
during the present session of the legis-
lature at Madison.

COAL SHORTAGE HITS SCHOOLS.
Social Center Activities are Eliminated
on, Account of the Coal Short
age in Keu0sfa

age in Kenosha.
Shortage OF coal supply for the heat
ing plants in the city schools has
brought curtailment of school activi-
ties and for the present all social
center work in all the schools had been
called off. "We have plenty of coal
to heat buildings for the regular
school sessions, Z" said Mrs. Mary D.
Bradford, superintendent of schools
this morning, "but we must cut off
some of the activities. We are still
using the buildings for the play of the
children after the school sessions are
over, but the elimination of the social
center work will save 2 lot of coal.
The greatest disappointment in con
nection with this coal trouble is the
condition at the Lincoln School. We
are burning lot of coal to heat the
building and it is pretty nearly a com
plete waste as the contractors in
charge of the work stu 60 be done
there have been neglectn2 this work
and the burning Of the {. ool like
a crime" Efforts viii be made to
force the contractors to put men to
work at once and finish up the work
in the building. The schools have a
considerable supply Of coal for imme-
date use, but there are no promises
for the future and as the cold weather
has demsnded unusually heavy con-
sumption the condition is regarded as
a serious one.
