These Boys
Came From, Gary

Gary, Indiana, may have the most in
teresting and efficient school system in
the world but it was not reflected
greatly in the careers of two youngsters
brought before Judge Randall on Fri
day afternoon. They were Anton Mar
tin, aged ten, and Peter Martin, aged
eight. They came from Gary to Keno
sha just fortytwo days ago and in
that time they had been picked up five
times by the police officers for being
incorrigible. The parents of the boys
admitted rather frankly that they were
unable to keep them in the house at
night and they were entirely willing to
allow the state to take up the duty
where they had failed. Anton and
Peter are going over to Superintendent
Hutton at the Waukesha school. One
viii stay for eight years and the other
for ten. Sam Ross and Henry Miller,
two other boys OF tender age brought
before the court as incorrigibles, thought
that they could do better if they had
another chance and as there appeared to
be chances for reform the BOYS were
paroled to their parents.

Gets NelU Call
For Telegraph Operators
School Officials are Urged to Develop
This Line of. instruction i'll
the Local Schools.

superintendent of Schools Mrs. Mary
d. Bradford has received new call
from the War Department for the de
velopment of men who are to take
places as telegraph operators with the
signal corps of the United States army.
Thus far there has not been enough
registrations for course to warrant
the city opening a special school to
teach telegraphy. Now the depart
ment is urgent. 1t finds so great a de-
mand for the telegraph operators that
a nationwide movement is being in
augurated to secure the education of
men for these places. Immediate en-
ployment is being assured to men who
may 60 into this service. The men
could be employed with the govern
ment at the present time and it is de-
clared that there will be an increasing
rather than diminishing demand for
men. With twenty students the Ke-
nosha school could be put underway and
it is expected that this number will
have registered within the next few
days.

AN AMETHYST NECKLACE.
Jewelled Chain Has Been Donated tC
the Suffrage Sale and May Now
be Seen at Regner's.

An amethyst necklace, beautifully
set and richly carved, is the latest con
tribution for eye Gift Shop" at the
Suffrage Sale for Sammies, to be held
on Friday and Saturday of next week
at the Unitarian Church. The new
donation is striking and attractive.
The stones are beautifully cut and set
in a chain made in accordance with the
latest designs for art jewelry The or
nament is now on display at Regner S
jewelry store and is already attracting
some attention. Realizing that the
full value of the necklace could posi-
bly, not be secured by a single sale the
managers have adopted novel
plan to dispose of it at price at least
approaching its real worth. Chances
will be sold at ten cents each and be-
come the basis for q drawing at some
time during the sale. The lucky parti-
cipant will consequently receive the
necklace for the sum of ten cents but
vastly more than this will accrue to
the smoke fund for the Sammies as
result of the enterprise. 1t is thought
that the beauty of the ornament will
induce many Kenosha girls to "take a
chance" in the rattle and at the same
time contribute a dime for suffragists
and soldiers.

Find Deserter
Win $50 Reward
Joe Podeskf Who Failed to Appear
When Boys Left for Camp Custer
Saturday Has Price onHis Head.

Frank Podeski, giving his address as
$40 Bond street, failed to appear on
last Saturday to leave with the Keno
sha soldiers for Camp Custer at Battle
Greek and he is now deserter from the
United States army. Governor Philip
has just notified the members Of the
local exemption board that reward Of
fifty dollars will be paid to the person
who delivers any deserter to the nearest
army point The men VINO fail to ap-
pear for service when called are listed
as deserters and price of fifty dol
lars is placed on every one of them.
It is thought that there are men in Ke-
nosha who know where they can put
their hand on Podeski and they are
expected to come forward and claim the
reward.
No other men summoned for service
from Kenosha have been placed in the
"deserter class. One other man
failed to appear week ago today but
he came in and surrendered himself on
last Monday and his case is to be dis
posed of by the department.
