SEND JOHNNY KRAMER
TO REFORM SCHOOL
Boy Who Had Rapid Advancement In
Crime Is Sentenced to Term in
the State Reformatory.

Johnny Kramer, fifteen years of age,
who the police claim was the most sue
cessful of the juvenile criminals in
Kenosha, is not going to bother any
one for some time. He pleaded guilty
to charges of larceny in the Municipal
Court on Monday afternoon and this
morning Judge Tully issued a formal
order directing that he be taken to the
Industrial School for Boys at Wau-
kesha and he will remain the ward
of, the state until he reaches his
eighteenth birthday.
Kramer had been paroled ON several
occasions and the court reached the
conclusion that to parole Kramer would
not be of great value in reforming him
Kramer seemed to feel the same way
about it. He is to 60 over to Waukesha
this afternoon and he is busy helping
the palie recover bicycles stolen.
Harry Klenchuk, arrested with the
Kramer boy on a charge of buying
stolen property, entered a plea of gull
fly on Monday afternoon and the court
sentenced him to pay a fine of $4,000
and the costs of the action.

FARMER SOLDIERS
MAY GET BURROUGHS
Kenosha County Farmers May Secure
Release of Sons for Harvest by
Applying to Local Board.

Release of Sons for Harvest by
Applying to Local Board.
The Keposha County Local Exemp-
ticn Board is calling attention to the
fact that Kenosha County soldiers
stationed at Camp Custer may gain
"harvest furloughs' in the event
that they are seriously needed at home
to help in harvesting the present crop.
In order to gain a furlough a petition
must be filed by the father or some
other relative Of the soldier showing
that his services are needed to help
with farm labor and If investigation
proves it advisable he will be allowed
to stay at work until the present short
age of farm labor is relieved or the
harvest is gathered. Burroughs will
also be granted to men who have had
especial training in agriculture at the
university and who for this reason
would be of especial value on the farms
during the harvest season. Tt is ex-
pected that many Kenosha County men
who are now at Camp Custer or who
will be sent soon will be returned for
the summer by means of the Ffarm-
eT fprfough" plan.

ITALY HEALTHY
by Newspaper Enterprise ASSN
NEW YORK, Oct. S.

The American Red Cross Tubercu-
losis unit which sails soon from an
Atlantic port for Italy is simply the
vanguard of great movement to be
formed in that country.
This first contingent will number
about 35 workers, similar number
to follow few weeks later and it is
hoped that sufficient medical experts
and social workers, trained to this
particular field, will volunteer for SER
vice in supplementary units to be
formed later.
This first band of workers is mere
~ nucleus of the organization the
United States government through the
Red Cross wished to establish in TIA
ly," said P. w. Harvey of the Lake
Division, which has it's head offices in
Cleveland. The American Red Cross
is exceedingly anxious to get in touch
with those who are qualified to per-
form the services which our sister
ally needs so greatly. Medical men
who have made a special study OF tu-
berculosis. nurses who have followed
the same line, also social workers and
nurses who are familiar with the bet
ter babies educational work In the
country, will find an especially fertile
field of opportunity for similar work in
Italy"
