was stated officially today.
While the voluntary censorship pre-
vents any extensive dealing in FIG

mark exceeded original promises by a
considerable number OF thousands,
and that while it did not reach high
water mark, the maximum ought to
be in sight this month.

OF official plans for army expansion,

In connection with the facts given
the United Press Officially. some in
teresting inside data on the reserve
question as it affects the western
front was made available.
England has had to use many OF her
reserves in France merely to check

reason, she had TO send an : $ for

TO Be RECORD.

The Government IS laying the
foundation for an army Of 100000
men by July /, 1919.
Secretary Of War Baker, at the
direction Of President Wilson, has
prepared detailed estimates OF spprO-
priations desired for the fiscal year
ending June 30, 1919, and amounting
to approximately Sl5.0OO.0O0, 600
double our army appropriations dur
ing the war to date.
The 1000, 900 figure for the pro-
posed force Is arrived at by dividing
Bakers appropriation estimates by
$500. understood to be the per capita
cost OF an army. Supplies and ship
ping can be furnished, it is stated, for
Al least 100000.
SnaE Encountered.
Bakers request for blanket author
fly to expand the army TO keep pace
with the increased shipping facilities
has encountered one snag in the form
OF objection from Chairman Dent Of
the House Military Committee. Dent
announced he is for an army up to
100000 men, but insisted the House
should know just how fast it was to
be expanded.
On the other hand. Baker had
stanch aid from Congressman Field
and Kahn. who felt the Administra-
tion ought to have blanket authority
and favored making the sky the limit
in our present plans.
The House committee has been in
formed by Baker that the War De-
partment plans to enlarge existing
cantonments to take care OF the eN-

G. BARR LECTURES
Most Interesting Address by Instructor
in State Normal School at Milwaukee
Given in Adj Building Monday night.

The initiatory address of most in
teresting series of lectures was given
by Clinton Barr, an instructor in the
Milwaukee Normal School, in the lee
ture room of the administration build
ing of the city schools, Monday eve
ming. The first part of the lecture
was devoted to discussion Of the
terms Of the armistice which has just
been signed by the Allies and the Ger
mans and the changes which have been
made therein from the fourteen points
as onunciated by President Wilson pre-
viously.
The latter part of the lecture was
devoted to discussion of Napoleon s
campaigns in Europe and the treaty Of
Vienna. The speaker graphically des-
cribed the events of those days and
compared the, Vienna treaty with the
one that is likely to be made between
the Allies and the enemy in short
time.
The lecture was given to about 40 of
the city teachers who have banded
themselves together for mutual i'm
provement and have subscribed to this
course of instruction.

Work Among The Igorrotes

Mrs. Stanton of the Segsda Mission
in the Philippine Islands, spent the
weekend in Kenosha and gave several
interesting talks about the work of
Christianizing the Igorrotes and bet
tering their condition. This work is
done by a small body of missionaries,
and is hard and trying labor.
"My husband and j" said Mrs.
Staunton, have been working in the
mountains, sixty miles from Manila, for
eighteen years. We were pioneers in
this work of reclaiming and helping the
thousands of sayages who had retreated
inland before the Spanish invaders.
Our mission now numbers thirteen
persons. We have a number of good
and permanent buildings.
''The land is terraced along the steep
mountain side, and only those able to
endure long journeys on horseback,
crossing of rapid streams in boxes
swung on ropes, can reach these little

house are ten thousand Igorrotes-more
than all the Indians in Alaska.
Our work has grown steadily. I can
speak with fuency several of the ma.
tive dialects. We do not seek the
Igorretes. They come to US, having
acquired confidence in the kindness and
Ihelpfulness of the white missionaries
We have baptized two thousand Of
these people.
"The climate is cold in the shade
and very hot in the sun. We are five
thousand feet above the sea level. The
thermometer sometimes goes to forty
two degrees. The natives are almost
without clothing, wearing only torn
clothes. They suffer greatly from the
damp wet cold. However, they are
free from tuberculosis. The great de-
sire is for clothing. One woman who
had come repeatedly to our mission to
have broken arm dressed, always
asked for the discarded bandages. In
short time she appeared wearing q
skirt made from the bandages that she

Society Would Arrange for
Continuance of the Work.

Members OF the Kenosha County
Dental Association, gathered at din
ner at the Elks Club on Monday even
ing, discussed plans for the continuance
of the dental clinic for children and
as a result of the discussion it is ex-
pected that within short time plans
will be made for housing the clinic at
one Of the buildings owned by the Ke-
nosha Hospital Association. The dem
fists are anxious to have the work
continued and are ready to give their
time to the care of the clinic provided
proper arrangements can be made for
housing it. Commissioner of Public
Health DR.. G. Windesheim was the
guest of honor at the dinner and he
made short talk during the evening.

alization, but rather should be made
one Of growth in knowledge and work
ing efficiency and of strengthening of
character and rife purposes. The Z.
NJ. C. A. and other allied organiza-
tons are planning not only to enlarge
their recreational program during this
period, but to launch a great educa-
tional program as well. We want the
boys to come back better men than
they we're when they went out. Each
person should consider how he would
like to have the matter handled for his
own boys sake. That s the test and
the guage of what he should do The
demands of war are great, the demands
of clean and wholesome humanity are
greater and we shall not fail in either.
When ] wrote of my visit to other
camps, during the summer, / think /
omitted mentioning Camp Taylor, near
Loniville, Kentucky, q one of those
visited. This is exclusively an artil-
lery camp and the largest in the
country. Many of our home boys are
there. I made it a point in each camp
visited to seek out the Wisconsin
boys. Of course, it was not my
privilege to take each Of them by the
hand, but often found them in con-
siderable numbers about mess time and
the top sergeant would tell them who
/ was. I always asked a number of
them from what part of the state they
hailed and I think I never more appre-
ciated by extensive acquaintance with
and people throughout our
state than upon those occasions, when,
no matter where a fellw came from,
knew something about his community
or someone in it. The boys appreciate
seeing someone from home. One day
when a couple of soldiers were passing
my car I overheard one of them say to
the other, "Gee, Bill, don't it seem
good to see a Wisconsin hcensee' I
stepped out and said, "Well, boys, if
it seems good to see a Wisconsin IL
cense, how would it seem to shake
hands with a Wisconsin mang" And,
holding hands, we had right good
visit for quite some time. This illus
trates very many similar privileges
that have been mine during this serv-
ice with the troops.
Not long ago an aviator came over
from selfridge Field. He had a big
Curtis biplane, not calculated for doing
them to such an extent that he was
called "that crazy aviator Ore of
the colonies went up with him and
the aviator put on about all the stunts
known to flyers. When they came
down the colonel said, "Well, lieuten-
ant, there were two or three times up
there that 7 didn't know what was go
ing to happen to US And the lieu
tenant replied, "Well, colonel, you
didn't have anything on me!

CENTERS OPEN
Monday Afternoon Glasses for Girls
Organized and Those for Men and
Boys VIII be opened Tonight.

Afternoon social centers for girls
were started in three schools, Balm.
Columbus and Weiskopf on Monday.
The active game room at each CEN
ter proved attractive to the girls TEEN
ing with energy, while the quiet game
room appealed to the ones Joking for
less strenuous activity.
In another part of the school was
room full of dancing youngsters. These
girls promise to show their friends
what can be done along this line. For
the wee folks there was the story hour,
and for the older girls the Junior
Red Cross room. These activities are
open to all girls of school age
In the evening two centers were
opened for the older girls, one at the
Balm and one at the Lincoln school
Enthusiastic leaders greeted crowds
full of pep. They offered baseball,
basketball, apparatus work and dane
ing. A gym class has been organized
at each of the these places and whi'e
the number for this class viii be
limited there is still room for any who
wishes to join.
The Balm school players have issued
/ a challenge to all teams in the city for
basketball or baseball game. No
doub+ this challenge will be accepted
by the Lincoln players and within
short time a real contest will be staged.
Centers for boys and men viii open
this afternoon and tonight. The after
noon eenters offer active and quiet
games, dancing. library work, and toy
making. For the men there "liI DC
gym classes, bah games, pool, chess,
etc. An added feature this year VIII
be the wrestling classes. Mr. o'Brien'

AS they advance in civilization
they add on upper garments to the
torn clothes. They are called dirty. This
may be so, but they are not filthy. The
native houses are about twelve feet
square, without windows. A steep roof
with wide overhanging caves affords
space for drying meat and rice. On
the dirt floor a fire is always kept burn
ing. This fire is built of fat pine wood
and gives off a black greasy smoke that
covers everything and everybody.
1.-THE Igorrotes live chiefly on rice,
but are passionately fond of meat, eat
ing anything that can be killed aud
cooked, even snakes. They are good
cooks. Bread is their greatest luxury,
and last Christmas pieces of bread an
inch square were received with an
avidity that our children show for
candy. Next to bread as a luxury
comes soap, small piece of laundry
soap being priced beyond rpbies.
The boys in the mission school are
apt pupils, taking special interest in
mathematics. Several of them are fine
chess players. The girls are taught ele-
mentary hygiene and cooking necessary
for keeping up decent home and car
ing for family. They marry young
and around our mission is a thriving
colony of young people with their
babies. All these are Christians and
are living witness to the worthwhile
ness of our work -
Mrs. Stapnton is ON her way back to

probably end my days in the Philip
pines. I love our work there and shall
no doubt die among the people that we
have brought to Christ"

SOLDIERS WANT COMMISSIONS.

Men in the training camp at Camp
Taylor are not in any hurry TO be mus
tered out of the service, according to a
letter which has been received from
John 9. Lyman of this city. He de-
clares that when the announcement was
made that men who desired could leave
the service without completing the
training course that about one man in
his battery asked for his discharge, the
remaining members Of the battery
electing to remain IN training until
graduation. 1t is expected that the

WISCONSIN FUND SLOW.
Director Lee c. Fl. Orbach in Charge
of United War Fund Praises
Kenosha in Telegram.

Lee c. Fl. Orbach of Madison, in
charge Of the state United War Work
campaign gives credit to Kenosha for
being first to make a payment to the
fund in telegram sent out from Madi-
son this morning. In his telegram he
says:
e Wisconsin made but slow pro-
gress today in the United War Work
campaign and unless hereculean effects
are extended up to Wednesday when
the drive closes this state may not
reach its FIVE million goal. State exc
eutive chairman Emerson Ella announc-
ed two million eight hundred fifty thou
sand dollars subscribed up to Mon.
day night. Milwaukee has not re-
ported since last Friday and it is ex-
pected that its next figures will ma
teriallv boost the returns.
Two more counties have joined the
hundred fifty percent class these are
Calumet and Green Lake. Counties
passing the hundred per cent mark to-
day were Bane, Jefferson. Lincoln,
Washara and Wood.
The first county to send in its check
was Kenosha, war chest county, which
today RENTED eighty four thousand
three hundred and seventy five dollars,
half the amunt pledged to the United
War Work campaign. Kenosha sub
scribed its full hundred fifty percent
quota
