Women Of Kenosha are not going ia
be forgetful of the demand that the
nation makes on them. Right now the
exemption board wants helpers. Be a

to come round and draft you. It's the
real test of Kenosha women who are
intelligent enough to handle this work
for the greatest army that the nation

AGNES HAHN
FOUND IN RACINE

and for that reason she did not want
to go back. We took her into the
house and she played with our four
children. A party had been arranged
for the evening and when she insisted
that her clothes were not good enough
to go to the party, we fixed up some
of my little girl IS dresses and gave
them to her to wear and she was very
happy during the evening""
Mr.. Volkert explained fully the in
cident of the telephone message on
Saturday night. ct told Agnes that
would telephone to her friends at
home that she was being well cared
for,' he said. cat first she pleaded
with me not to do this, but I explained
to her that l feared that they would
be greatly worried and finally she told
me to telephone and told me that l
could call the home of her aunt. 1t,
was I who talked with Mrs Meyer on
Saturday night. / tried to explain to
her that the little girl was in good
hands. I said, 4 don't want you to
be anxious about her. She is tired
and has gone to bed and we are taking
the best Of care Of Ter Then Mrs.
Meyer asked me where she was and /
told her that could not tell her
that, but that | was sending this mes
sage to prevent the parents of the
child being worried. -
Agnes told US that she was mem
Der of the Catholic church and early
Sunday morning we took her to
st. Mary's church and she went to
church. On Sunday we had plan
ned to bring Agnes to Kenosha.
She had suffered greatly from her long
tramp to Racine and she appeared i'll,
When we got ready to go she cried so
that she became hysterical and she
begged us to permit her to remain with
us for Gttle while longer, On Monday
she was still weak and lame and on
Monday afternoon we had engagements
that made it impossible for us to come
TO Kenosha. We offered to give Agnes
carfare to return to her home, but she
declared that she would not return.
1 thought that her feeling should be
explained to her parents before she
was brought back. !"
Before Pastor Volkert had completed
the telling of the story at the police
Office a message came from Chief
0 Hare from Racine declaring that
he had investigated the case in that
city and that Mr.. Volkert should be
released at once.
Mr.. Volkert declared that he might.
have telephoned to the officers in Ke-
nosha but he said that he had not
known that any search was being made
for the little girl until after he had
come to Kenosha. II felt deeply the
confidence the child had imposed in me
and the hardest part of it all was the
breach of this confidence he said as
he closed the interview.
After the little girl had been return
ed to her home in henosha, Mr.. Vol
kert returned to his home in Racine.
1t is improbable that any claim will
be made for the reward offered by the
city, as Mr. Volkert himself gave the
members of the family the first word of
the whereabouts of the little girl.
Members of the Hahn family de-
clared that they were ready to for
give and forget and that the little girl
was happy at home again.

There may be some question as ia
just what constitutes an essential oc-

fairly agreed that holding up the lamp

without until after the war is over.

5000 MILES ARE DESIGNATED
Notable Work off Marking Roads to Be
Cared for by State Is Completed and
Work of Upkeep Is Being Planned
At This Time.

Practleally everyone has noticed
the white bands appearing all over
the state on telephone poles, and the
black triangle outline containing the
words estate Trunk Highway" with
number and the word Wis.," at
the bottom of the triangle.
These bands have been painted on
poles all over Kenosha and right down
the main street of the city.
This is the visual evidence that a
road or street is on the state trunk
highway system. Each trunk high
way has different number and the
marking is to enable the traveller to
pick up a number and easily follow
the especial state trunk highway or
highways which takes him to his de-
stination.
The state trunk highway system
comprises 5000 miles of road
Stretches Of varying length are main
tanned by a patrolman, there being
nearly 500 Of these patrolmen now
working In maintaining. the system.
Each county is responsible for the
maintenance of the system within it's
limits but the cost Of this mainten-
ance, up to certain amount per
mile, is repaid the county by the
state out of the proceeds of automo-
bile license fees.
! Already the system of main roads
of Wisconsin is much improved by
| this maintenance and as the patrol
men gain experience and the whole
organization gets in working order
the results are bound to be wonder
fully marked.
The Wisconsin highway commits
sion will be glad to be notified Of
any markings so indenhite that the
system can not be followed, (Which
is especially apt to occur in cities
and villages of any inattention to
duty on the part of the patrolmen, or
of any stretches of the state system
not now adequately maintained.
Asks Public's Aid.
The commission states that the
only way in which the ultimate re-
suits can be secured from this main
tenance is through the cooperation
of the general travelling public. Con-
structive criticism is welcomed, as
with all the commission s efforts it
can not keep constantly in touch
with every patrolman, or see every
stretch of road often enough to pre-
vent all plumbers.
For the convenience of the travel
ing public the legislature provided
that map of the trunk highway
system should be published showing
the same numbers on the various
roads that are displayed on the tele-
phone poles along them. With this
map anyone desiring to get between
any two points in Wisconsin can cas-
lily select his route and readily fol
low it on the road itself. These
maps may be had from local station
ers or will be sent by Superintendent
of Public Property, Madison, Wis,
on receipt of ten cents. Stamps not
accepted.

Start is Satisfactory.

The Wisconsin highway commits.
sion feels that quite satisfactory
start has been made on what is go
ing to prove to be the most revolu-
tionary advance in highway main
tenance ever made in this or any
other state, but that to secure the
supreme result the general public
should be better informed of what
the commission is attempting to do
and give to it and to the county or
CARNATIONS, which are loyalty co.
operating, better information as to
abuses which readily may occur in
the conduct of patrolmen, their lack
of attention to work, or the lack
of intense work on certain pieces of
road which are still real impediments
to travel. Each citizen can help by
pointing out to the commission pre-
sent shortcomings much more than
he can by simply bearing them.
