OBJECT TO MARRIAGE Law.
Local Ministers and Judges Asked to
Join in State Wide Movement to
Lift Embargo on Marriage.

Fearing that Wisconsin is going to
drift into the condition of the famous
old German communist settlement
"When Rapp. the Harmonist embargoed
marriage" concerted effort is to be
made by ministers and judges through
out Wisconsin to secure the repeal of
the latest addition to the marriage laws
of Wisconsin. The movement has been
started in Milwaukee and local minis
tiers and jurists have been asked to
start at once bombarding the governor
and the legislature with letters urging
the repeal of the law. 1t is held that
the law has placed real embargo on
marriages in Wisconsin and that unless
it is repealed the considerable fees that
the ministers and judges have been re-
ceiving for performing marriage cere-
monies will go a glimmering. Already
the governor has been asked to include
the reconstruction of this law in his
call for the special session of the legis-
lature which is to be held in February.
In Milwaukee it is declared that the
marriages have dropped off ninety per
cent since the law went into operation
and as large a percentage of deceases
is being\reported from other counties
in the state.

ARE READY FOR CROSSING.
Kenosha Soldiers Now at Camp Merritt
Anxious to ''Get Over and
Take in the Fun

Sergt. Thad Logan writes for the
seven Kenoshans who as members of
the Ordnance Division, have been re-
Gently transferred to Camp Merritt, N.
j., from TT. Benjamin Harrison, Indi-
ana, that they are all glad that they
have made another leap towards their
goal and that they are anxious to get
over and take in the fun" on the other
side of the Atlantic.
The "seven" have praise for their
Uncle Sam for the barracks which he
has provided them at the New jersey
cantonment and also for the fact that
they are within fourteen miles of New
York and are allowed furloughs to see
the metropolis. 1t is their belief that
their stay at Camp Merritt will be short
and that they will soon be aboard the
the transport for "the crossing.''
All of us, y writes Sergeant Logan,
"wish to thank the Kenosha Red Cross
for the Christmas parcels which they
sent to us. 1t helps lot to know that
the folks at Kenosha did not forget US.
These kits certainly are useful ana
have been appreciated by us. !"
The Kenosha soldiers are all in the
best of health and spirits as they wait
for the orders to start the last part of
their trip to Flanders Fields

PRACTICE WHAT THEY PREACH
Park Avenue Methodists Will Exemplify
Conservation by Holding Cot
tage Prayer Services

Practicing the gospel of conservation
that they have so frequently preached,
the Park Avenue Methodists will inau-
gurate a fuel-saving movement when
they hold their mid-week prayer SER
vices in houses Of members Of the con
gregation rather than in rooms at
the church specially heated for the
meeting. The idea is essentially pa
triotic and is deserving of emulation by
other sects honestly concerned with the
problem of supplying coal and coke for
America and her Allies. In other states
the plan has been widely adopted and
has accomplished no little saving in
fuel but SO far as records show Kenosha
is the first town in Wisconsin to use
the system with any seriousness. The
prayer services for this week will be
held at the homes Of the following peo-
pie: I, W. Hough, 419 Grover street
Bryce Morrow, us Dayton street; E.
W. Hinderman, 40S Park avenue. The
meetings will begin promptly at 1880
O'Clock.

sisted by DIR. o. I'll. Becker, also of
Milwaukee and grand trustee of the
Wisconsin Eagles. Following the rit-
ualistic meeting a smoker and social
hour was enjoyed by the members dur
ing which the visiting Eagles made
strong patriotic talks complimenting
Kenosha on the support it had given to
the various war measures. The response
for this city was well given by Judge
George E. Taylor and Marvin S. Moss.
The meeting closed one Of the most
successful years in the history of the
AeHoSna Aefle anu was u1SG1HcG Ifl-
butte to the efficient work of Arthur
Goodfellow, the retiring worthy presi-
dent.

coMMENDs HIS coMPATR1oTs.
z. G.. Simmons, Chairman Of the Pa
tr1ots fund Committee, Sends
Notes of Thanks to His Aids.

Believing in the scriptural iniunc-
tion which urges honor where honor
is due =, z. G.. Simmons today sent notes
of appreciation to the members of the
various committees who aided him in
the successful flotation of the Patriots
Fund in Kenosha. The messages are
brimful of patriotism and gratitude
mingled with civic pride in city
that has made material contr button
to the war-work of the nation. They
read in part as follows:
"Like one gigantic unit and with
enthusiasm unprecedented, our people
have answered to our call and given
literally toward this war efief fund.
The campaign was an overwhelming
success and is renewed proof to the
world of the patriotism of the people
in our community.
"When our boys have spent their
blood and their might for the principles
that gave birth and happiness to our
country finally our country has
won victory and an everlasting peace
for the people and nations now down
trodden and grooming under the burden
of autocracy and militarism-it will, in
deed, be source of great satisfaction
and justifable pride to have your
family, your relatives, your friends,
and our boys who went to the front,
point to you as one of those who, while
not able to serve under the flag and
carry a gun, left the noblest heritage
that can be left by anyone irrefutable
proof of patriotism and loyalty to our
beloved country"

..AND A LITTLE CHILD"

It happened in Chicago but the story
was told in Kenosha by S. J. Duncan
Clarke, war-critic for the Evening Post.
A father and his small son were walk.
ing along the boulevard at the twilight
hour when suddenly the boy looked up
and saw the evening star sh 'ning in lone
serenity against the background of the
darkened sky.
ssLook, father =, he said. fFGod has
hung out His serviee-fag. He must
heve a Son in this war, too -
He has the father replied. e'The
war began many years ago when Man
was crueifed on Calvary to bring men
to a brighter vision of liberty and un.
selfishness. What he did then our
sons and brothers are doing today and
for the same PRINCIPLES. y
They both were right =, commented
Nh. Duncan-Clark, and the whole cpl
sode only fulflls the ancient prophecy
and little child shall lead them. -

to tear down or disrupt part of our
educational system and put in its place
something different. In the last legis-
lature this movement was sometimes
called by the lobbyists and advocates
Germanizing the schools. The reader
may think this expression was used by
the opponents of the dual system, as it
well might have been, but is was used
by the friends Of the bill designed
to split up the system, as an argument
in its favor The latest report / have
heard is to the effect that the high
schools can not teach agriculture, and
that they are menace to the farm
ing interests, and that schools warrant
ed to return the boy to the farm should
be established at once. The high schools
are thoroly democratic institutions, the
most fundamentally democratic, indeed,
of all our educational institutions. 1t
is true, however, that now and then a
country boy who goes to one of them
is lost to the farm. What of itg Is
that sufficient reason for damning them,
or for establishing a rival system at
large expense turnout the state, to be
known as Boys Farm Schools? What
about the farm Girlsg
1T never rains but it pours; but be
of good cheer at this critical juncture
of wars, both military and educational.
This country is fundamentally demo
cratic and will not long tolerate, ]
fancy, special schools for those who are
destined by the accidents of birth
for special trades or occupations
Schools warranted to return the farm
boy to the farm because he can not do
anything else after he has completed
his schooling, are and likely to be very
popular in the years to come, and il
would seem best not to invest in them
largely. G. P. CARY

Hawaii Escapes Ravages of FLU

Honolulu, T. H.-By MaiD-
Hawaii thus far has entirely escaped
the Spanish influenza, which has been
epidemic over most of the world. With
reports of the ravages of the disease
reaching here from both sides of the
Pacific the states and japan and 81
IBERIA, every precaution was taken to
keep it out of the islands. A number
of trans-Pacific liners with the influ-
enza on board We're held in close quar-
antine while in port, although few
critical cases were taken to local hos
pitfalls and large number of the crew
of japanese liner were treated here
until they recovered.
An epidemic was particularly dread
ed here because of the high mortality it
undoubtedly would have caused among
the native Hawaiians, who are pecu-
liarly susceptible to influenza and re-
lated diseases.
