BOYS TO RAISE s5oOO

Approximately $5000 will be raised by tho boy students of the Central High school for the Young Mems Christian associa- ton fund by the first day of next April, if present plans of the students are car ried out. The idea is being fostered by the high school ''Y'' and it is the idea for every boy to earn his share of the fund, money given him by his parents not being acceptable.
 It is interesting to note that the plans of having the boys raise an amount in this way was formulated by economic leaders in this country few months ago, but for some reason was not acted upon at that time. The German government has taken the matter in hand and has the boys of Germany raising an amount similar to what the high school boys will raise. Germany, however, started the work about three weeks ago.
 The plan calls for the raising of s10 by every boy student in the high school and in the seventh grade of the grammar scrools The amount is to be raised by April l. 191S and the boys are not to solicit or receive any part of this money, but must work and earn it.
 . The boys campaign will start with a dinner in the boys department of the Central Young Mems Christian associa- tion building tomorrow afternoon at 5 o'clock and will last through Wednes- day.
 Campaign Manager Vernon Kemp will act as treasurer for the campaign R. A. Mcdowell former boys work secretary of Pittsburg, now engaged in Young Mems Christian association work will make addresses at the Central, Ensley and Bessemer high schools tomorrow and tell them of the methods and ways of raising the fund that they have taken upon them selves.

Over $s0,O00 had been subscribed to the with reports from Bessemer and several committees yet to be received and a number of districts to be heard from. The work will be continued with vigor Monday morning and the contribution boxes placed in the downtown stores will be in place but will not be opened till Monday noon at the Tutwiler lunch con, when final reports for the cam paign and the gallant workers given their furloughs until again needed. Field Marshal Rushton would not con- init himself last night other than to say that he believed that s9o.ooo to s10o,- coo as final total would be conserv- atve estimate.
 Although not officially announced, lead- CTS in the "Y" campaign are anxious to have monster parade, tomorrow, just after the luncheon at the Tutwiler, as a fitting climax to the hard work the men have been doing.
 The Rotarians, representing the French army, were leading the Kiwanis club, representing the British army, late yes- terday in the matter of subscriptions, but the Kiwanis assert that in the final drive they will carry off the honors in fine British style.
 A feature of yesterdays work was the offer of Miss Emma Jones, art teacher at the Birmingham seminary, to Col. Hubbert Smith, of any picture In her collection, as a fitting reward for his gallantry and hard work in the Y. M c. A. drive Mir Smith chose a beauti- full water scene which is exhibited at campaign headquarters, 210 BrownMarx building.
 Late reports yesterday showed that Ensley's total will reach $15,000 in the end, the Steel mill employees alone sub scribing over $5,000.
 It Is planned to have tomorrow a kind of follow-up day-a clean sweep of the yet unsolicited firms and corporations will be made and final reports from out lying districts are urged.
 The final luncheon at the Tutwiler to- morrow will be the biggest of the series of luncheons for the workers, and al- though no speaker for the occasion has been named it is rumored that q pleas ant surprise is In store for those at- tending.
 The report for the total of yesterday was unavailable last night, but at noon a total of $77,e7S.74 was reported and it was known that there was at least 5000 already collected in Bessemer and an equal amount was probably secured in the Birmingham district. leaders think, upon which exact figures could not be ascertained.

EQUIPMENT IS ON THE WAY.
Adjutant General Holway Is Notified
That Tt Will Be Available Not
Later Than July 1st.

Adjt. Gen. Orlando Holway has re-
ceived telegram from the war depart
ment at Washington notifying him that
tents and gums for the Wisconsin Ma
tional guard would be shipped immedi-
ately from the several federal depots
to Camp Douglas, and would probably
arrive in time to enable the guard to
mobilize there during the first week in
July.
General Holway said that the CON
signment of guns would number 10000,
which with those now possessed by the
guard would be sufficient for the 1900
men in the organization. The CON
signment of tents would require the as
signing of ten men to each tent to ac-
comqnodate the 1900 men, These fig
ures, Gen. Holway said, included the
membership of the Third Wisconsin
regiment, now in federal service, and
its equipment
1t is expected that the Wisconsin
guardsmen will remain at Camp Doug
las about two months for preparatory
training for federal service. The CON
signment Of equipment for the Wiscon-
sin guardsmen Immediately followed an
offer to the war department. by Gen.
Ho4Way on behalf of the state to buy
the necessary arms and tents on condi-
tion that the federal government re-
imburse the state when the Wisconsin
men are called into federal service.

against outside toilets maintained in
various parts Of. the city and instructed
the city attorney to at once start court
proceedings against some 100 property
owners who were maintaining outside
closets. Many of these people have
already been served with formal orders
of the Health department to meet the
city ordinances. It is expected that
the court dockets will be crowded with
prosecutions within the next few DAYS.
AT the suggestion of the committee on
Health and Sanitation the committee on
Judiciary YVES directed to report to the
council at it's next meeting on the pro-
posed ordinance for the DISCRIMINATION
of milk.
Alderman Shearer gave very inter
esting report Of the collection of gar
bage under the municipal plan at Fond
du Lac. The committee of the Keno
sha council had no formal report to
make but it is expected that the matter
will be a special order at the next meet
ing of the council.
The expected tilt between the Health
department and the Board of Education
failed to materialize. President Whit
beck of the School Board was at tne
council meeting and remained until
eleven O'Clock but he evidently got
tired of waiting for the matter to come
up. Dr. Wright was not present as the
meeting as he had urgent calls to look
sitter couple of smallpox cases.
The council gave the ordinances for
the amendment of the building code the
first reading and they will come up for
passage at the next regular meeting OF
the council.

Grants Grace for
Alien Enemies
United States Marshal Randolph is to
Formally Open an Office in Keno
sha Within Next Ten Days.

Fluttering hearts of alien enemies In
Kenosha will be relieved by the official
announcement of United States Mar
shall S. A. Randolph of Milwaukee that
they will not be arrested at this time
for failure to secure permits to con-
tinue their work in Kenosha. Post
master German this morning announced
that the United States marshal would
come to Kenosha within the next ten
days and open an office for the exam
nation of alien enemies and the issu-
ance of permits. No arrest Of Kenosha
people will be made until after they
have been given a chance to secure
permits. The marshal stated that
practically all Of the territory of Ke-
nosha was Restricted territory" and
that while today was the last day for
securing permits under the federal sta
tute that the time had been extended
for Kenosha on account of the inability
of the federal officials to take care Of
the matter at an earlier time. 1t is
expected that there will be two hun
dred applications for the permits in
Kenosha. These permits are in the
government form and they must be
carried by aliens at all times.
A number Of the local men went to
Milwaukee today and there was a gen
eral call on the postmaster for informa-
ton as to how the permits could be Sc
cured. Factories in the city planned
to send men in body to Milwaukee
until they received word that days Of
grace would be allowed until such a
time as Marshal Randolph could open
an Office here.
In this connection a positive prohi-
bition is put upon alien enemies in Ke-
nosha either leaving the city or chang
ing their place of employment until
such time as the permits have been
regularly issued to them. This in
formation was given directly to repre-
sentatives of local factories by the
United States district attorney at Mil
waukee.
